#starling!nightmare

[janeelyakiri]

"Now remember," Gale starts, as Dream and Dove focused behind her on making their portal. "He's going to be expecting us. It's been obvious we've been working on breaking through his barrier."

"What is the point of breaking in then?" Her four eyelights turn to Nightmare, still so sour about needing assistance.

She sighs, reminding herself that he was just acting out. His family was stolen, and like every Nightmare she's helped before, he didn't know how to handle these feelings, being stolen from. "It's so he focuses on us three. You are to just rush- do NOT let your ego win. You run past him, you get to where your mate is. And get them out. Starling, Dove, and Dream got the boys."

"And I've got Nix." She growls, tone final.

Behind her, the portal had started to gather energy. Dove scoffed and glanced over. "Honey, no one wants that. You can have him." Earning themself another disgruntled glower from their counterpart.

A week was far too long with this flirty, flighty, rather airheaded version of himself.

He could feel his Old Man Age creeping up on him, despite Dove supposedly being 500 years older than himself.

But that doesn't matter for long. Soon the portal grows. energy nearly pushing him and Dove over as it expands. "Nightingale! It's open! Hurry, everyone!" He calls out to the group.

"Right!" She readies her scythes and motions them forward, through the portal. The Dreams slipping through before the energy could become too much.

In the realm of Phoenix, bathed in golden sunset colors sat a white stoned palace with gold trimmings.

And Phoenix waiting before them with help.

"Dearest sister and guests~!"

I had a nightmare last night 🥺🫂

At least I take cute pictures still 🥹📷✨️🐦‍⬛

Don't you love it when the actors' photos serve as a "spin-off"?

I've been kinda busy the past few days doing fuck all on roblox spray paint

[fairy-verse]

Fairyverse is a world where I imagine that background music is always playing; ever so softly, that you can hardly hear it. This is because I personally must listen to music whenever I write, and that music needs to be cherry-picked to fit the theme of whatever story/scene/character I’m currently engaged in.

Now, there are a few tracks I will listen to when I write general information regarding Fairyverse (I have a whole playlist but there are a few musical scores I go back to all the time), and I thought I might share them with you all, so that you may hear the general theme/vibe I’m going for.

I think I will also add the tracks I have (sort of) given to some of my characters as their supposed theme songs in Fairyverse. Is it their actual theme? No, but it is the tracks that sort of just clicked in my mind as being “theirs”, so to speak.

Also, not all fairies will be listed here, mostly just because I haven’t found a specific track that clicks with them yet, but I’ll be sure to update this post when that day inevitably comes around.

A Name Unwanted - DARK STEAL (Main Story) Part 10

■□■□■□■□■

When the day a name was heard once, that name would vanish into obscurity amongst the crowd. But not to those close to the one who once owned and knew of that name before.

Previous Part - Next Part

(A several minutes later)

(Hotel Room)

Aqua: "So... The current confirmed connections we have are on the people who caused the murder, and the reason the Nagare couple had a divorce."

Aqua: "But we do not have the reason why 2 of the bullies in the picture disappeared, and of a witness of Kiritaka's death."

Aqua: "Including why make the victim kill themselves."

Swank: "Heh, if it was by a hitman, I bet they taken out their bodies already."

Swank: "Though, about that..."

Aqua: "...what about it?"

Swank: "...Nothing, just something I remembered."

Aqua: "Right."

Aqua: "Though, Kuro looks hyperfixated on that pin board, including with trying to theorize on the reasons and the possible culprit of the disappearances."

Aqua: "...How much was it anyways?"

Swank: "40 yen."

Aqua: "Ah, I see."

Aqua: "And the pins?"

Swank: "20."

Aqua: "Hm, I guess that sounds right..."

Kuro: "...Ok, if this is how it is currently, I believe the next place were gonna go to is the scene where the manipulated murder happened..."

Kuro: "...And of the questioning."

Kuro: "You two."

Swank & Aqua: "Hm?"

Kuro: "Were gonna have to split up for this."

Kuro: "And with help along the way."

Kuro: "So me and Aqua will go to the school, and then talk to the remaining surviving murderers. Swank will go the place of the victim's death."

Swank: "Hm, but wouldn't it be that difficult? You know I can't do all of the power things you have, Kuro."

Kuro: "Don't worry, I'm gonna call someone who's just the right person for the job.

Aqua: "Well, who's that then?"

Kuro: "A friend of mine and co worker at the WDO. Their quite capable of seeing past crimes that no one can see from the present naked eyes."

Kuro: "But with it...would come with payment. Swank, you can handle giving some of your money to them, right?"

Swank: "Uh, to who?"

Kuro: "You know who I'm referring to."

Swank: "...No. Your not referring to them, right?"

Kuro: "..."

Swank: "Right???"

Kuro: "..."

Swank: "R-Right???"

Kuro: "...Yes I am."

Swank: "...Oh god."

Kuro: "I'm calling them right..."

Swank: "!!!"

Kuro: "Now."

Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring!

Ding!

???: "Hello? Who is this that is speaking to Halara Nightmare?"

Kuro: "Hello Halara. I suppose it may been some time since I asked for your help, right?"

Halara: "Ah, Kuro. Yes, it been some time since then. But mind if I ask what do you need from me?"

Kuro: "Well...it's something to do with seeing a past crime scene of a dead person, I may need someone to give details on how the victim died. Can you do that?"

Halara: "Of course, but that would come with a payment."

Kuro: "Oh? How much? Is it the same one you ask always, or a different amount?"

Kuro: "Because if you ask me and ask of what I know, it would 5 million, right?"

Halara: "...Yes. That would be the same amount I would be asking if someone hires me for something."

Halara: "Besides, mind if I ask where you are?"

Kuro: "Sure, I would gladly tell you where I am."

Aqua: "...Hey Swank, who do you think Kuro is talking to?"

Aqua: "...Swank?"

Aqua: "Where did you go?"

(Hotel Room's Bathroom)

Swank: "Not dealing with this again, not this time!"

Creak~

Aqua: "Swank."

Swank: Perfectly cut scream

It's my first Christmas and I already sent my mom spiraling because I almost died at 4 am this morning 😬 I'm really lucky mama was awake and heard my choking! She managed to pull this really long mucus string from my throat and I could breathe again!

You know me! I always have to make a dramatic entrance 😅 Hopefully mama and I have a better Christmas as the day goes on. But I'm not coughing or choking since!

I think mama saved my life 🥰🥺 I was really scared, but she always manages to make things better. I can tell she loves me with her whole heart 🩷☃️✨️🐦‍⬛

Rev up your engines, it’s time to…

🏁 Race for the Cookie Cup! 🏁

(More below the cut)

🫐Event Summary🍒

You, Grim, Ace, and Deuce decide to visit a new arcade that recently opened up in the town not far from NRC. There, you meet up with Ruggie, Epel, Silver, and Idia, who have all taken interest in a specific game in the corner of the arcade. The game is called Sugar Rush! Since there's two arcade machines, Ace challenges Deuce to one round of the game, and whoever loses must pay for the other's lunch. Deuce unsurprisingly accepts, and they begin their match. Midway through their match, however, the game suddenly glitches! You and the gang all think the game is broken until a flash of light comes from the arcade machines. Next thing you know, all 8 of you are somehow inside of the racing game, Sugar Rush!

To escape this sweet nightmare, you must win the next grand prix and obtain the Cookie Cup! But, uh oh. Ace and Deuce are having a bit of a squabble. It seems like you guys are going to have to split into two separate teams!

For this grand prix, Deuce will be accompanied by Silver and Idia as...

Team Bluepuff!

And Ace will be accompanied by Ruggie and Epel as...

Team Redpop!

Which team will you choose?

🏁Rules🏁

Everyone is allowed to race! Whether it's your OCs, yuusonas, or, heck, even rope your favorite canon NRC/RSA student into this mess! Everyone is welcome to participate in the mess that Ace and Deuce started.

You can participate in this event by making custom cards, general fanart, fanfics, whatever! Just no NSFW, please. This is a PG racing game!

If you decide to make anything for this event, please tag me and use #🍪rftcc. I'd love to see what you make!

And finally, this event has no deadline, so feel free to participate whenever!

🏁Outfits and Carts🏁

Since you will be racing, make sure your outfit is fit for the job! Make sure your character has a jersey, gloves, and a sweet theme!

For your character's theme, make sure it is based off of some sort of candy or sweet treat! The character must also have a matching cart, as well (if you're drawing them with one, that is). Try to stay away from actual candy brands, though! We wouldn't want a lawsuit on our hands!

The characters listed in the summary have their own cards and outfits! I listed them below so you don't accidentally copy their theme.

SSR Deuce (Blueberry Pie)

SSR Ace (Cherry Pie)

SR Ruggie and Epel (Donuts and bubblegum)

SR/R Idia and Silver (Slushies and marshmallows)

Also! If you're making a card, you may use the blank cards below!

The Sixteenth and Final of The Feral Drabbles

The loud chiming of the clock tower rings through my ears, nearly drowning out all other sounds. Golden light filters in through the widows, filling the stone walls with the last rays of the setting sun. If I listen closely, I can still make out the faint sounds of your heavy breaths. You cannot escape me, Starling. No matter where you hide, no matter how far you run, I will always find you.

I don’t know how many times I have told you how futile it is to try and get away from me, but you never seen to want to listen. I’m starting to think you rather enjoy the chase. Something about the imminent danger I pose simply gets your blood thrumming with excitement. I can just tell.

Of course, I could end this all in an instant. I could appear beside you at any given moment. My speed and tracking abilities are unmatched, especially when I have what I want in my sights. Yet, where would the fun be in that? I love listening to your heart race because of me. I love knowing I can make your scent spike suddenly with the slightest of sounds. You can sense me getting closer, can’t you? You know that I always get what I want, and what I want is you.

You smell amazing… Have I said that already? That pungent aroma of fear, permeated with the slightest thrill of excitement. Don’t think I haven’t noticed. After all, I know you better than you know yourself. In time, I’ll show you just how perfect I am for you, just as I know how perfect you are for me.

For months I’ve been studying you. The shadows have always been my friends, but when it comes to you, I am the shadows. All those dark and lonely nights I watched you, longing to be beside you, and finally be able to hold you in my arms. I longed to be able to brush my fingertips over your face, tracing loving patterns into your skin that only I can see. I wish to be there for you, and I so badly want you to be there for me.

Your soul called to me. The scent of your blood intoxicates me. Your laugh enchants me, and your smile sets my long dead heart aflutter. Just the sight of you has brought me back to life in ways I never thought possible, and I will cling to that essence of vitality for as long as we both shall live.

There is no me if there is no you.

Now, if only you could see that.

I’ll admit, knocking you out and bringing you to an unknown location was probably not the best way to properly introduce myself. In my defence though, I did overhear you talking to that one friend of yours about certain particular fantasies you’ve always had. You’ll have to excuse me for jumping the gun. I got too excited, and besides, it’s not like you don’t know me.

For months I’ve been appearing in your dreams. It started out small, just in passing at first. A glance of my face here. A hint of my voice there. You seemed to be reacting positively to me, too! I noticed a few times you seemed to be looking forward to my slight visits. Sometimes, you’d even go so far as to continue searching for me in your mind when I passed by. A fact of which made me happy beyond doubt.

Then came the nightmares.

You’re prone to them, aren’t you? The darkest recesses of your mind which you hide away in the light come creeping out of the shadows to torture you while in your most vulnerable state. They’re relentless, and unforgiving. A hindrance to your livelihood which dulls your shine, and petrifies your strength.

You can see why I couldn’t have that. I vowed to keep you safe, and that will always include keeping you safe from yourself.

Which is why I had to step in. I couldn’t leave you to suffer all alone. Not only could I prove to you how valuable I could be to you in your dreams, but it let me interact with you. Even on a subconscious level, I could tell it was going to benefit me greatly. I could talk to you, protect you, keep you interested…

And interested you were! I can still recall the way your eyes felt raking over my full visage for the first time. I could tell that you liked me, and that only made me know stepping into your subconscious mind was the right thing to do. 

We were finally making progress! You could see me for who I was, and I could finally see you without hiding myself away. I could interact with you on a more personal level, even within a dream. 

Everything I said, everything I did, was real. There’s no question about it. I would never deceive you like that, anyways. You deserve my truth, for it will soon become yours as well.

Those nightmares, though recurring, also let me understand you better. Those monsters stalking your dreams will never be able to hurt you again. I made sure of it. I showed them what a true beast looked like. Though, I will say, feeling their blood drip from my hands after rendering them limb from limb is immensely more satisfying in real life than within any dream your mind can conjure. I only wish I could have inflicted more damage on them while they were still alive…

They didn’t suffer enough. Not after what they all did to you. Nobody hurts you, cheats you, lies to you and gets away with it. No one.

I’ll tear them all to shreds. I’ll rip their pathetic flesh from their bones and feed their mangled corpses to the sea. Hell is a blessing compared to what I have prepared for anyone that crosses you. After all, there is nothing I wouldn’t do for you…

Oh, look at me… getting so caught up in my thoughts of you again that I nearly missed the sound of you changing your hiding place. It’s adorable how you think you can get away from me. As if you really want to. Why else would you have ran up the clocktower rather than out into the streets the first chance you got?

What will I get once I finally catch my prize? I’ll finally be able to properly feel your skin beneath my touch. Will you hold onto me as tightly as I’ll be holding onto you? Will you whisper my name so sweetly, granting me a long since desired wish? Or maybe, just maybe…a kiss? 

Oh, how I’ve longed to feel your lips pressed against my own, My Sweet Starling. Ever since that one fateful night, that glorious dream we shared, I’ve been longing to know what you taste like in real life. You’ve already let me touch you once before, now all there’s left to do is make your whole body shake in ecstasy in real life.

I know it was simply a dream, but fuck- I can still hear the way you cried out for me. The way your thighs wrapped around my head as I worshipped you between your legs… as I buried myself deep inside of you… I want to feel it again. This time, I want it to be real.

I want to hear those sinful lips of yours crying out my name. I want to hear you gasp as I sink my fangs into your flesh, and drink my fill of you. I want to feel your nails cutting into my back and pulling me closer because you cannot get enough of me. You already know that I can never get enough of you, and I will always prove that my love for you is true.

Oh, Starling… you’re going to make me moan if you keep smelling like that…

Delectable. Sinful.

…Mine.

Already I can feel my mouth salivating at the thought of catching you. My fangs are nearly pricking my lips. Starling, I don’t know if I can hold myself back for much longer…

I can hear your heart racing nearly in time with mine.

Tell me… are you as excited as I am right now? There’s something about the thrill of the chase, isn’t there? Knowing that I’m hunting you, wanting to catch you and finally make you mine. I swore to you that I meant you no harm, and that fact will always hold true. I will never hurt you. You are mine, and I am yours. That’s how it should be. That’s how it shall always be.

See! I knew you wouldn’t be able to deny me! We’re meant to be!

Look at you trying to be quiet after purposely giving away your location. It’s extremely endearing, you know. Try to hide all you want, but you can never escape the inevitable.

You may be able to lie to yourself, My Glorious Starling, but you cannot lie to me. Like I said before, I know you better than you know yourself. I can smell the excitement pouring off of you. You want me to catch you. I knew you wouldn’t be able to forget all that I’ve done for you in your dreams so easily. After all, my actions have always been, and will always be, as real as I am.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

The longer I let this go on, the more excited you seem to get. Just listen to your heart racing for me! It’s getting louder with each step, and this time, there’s nowhere you can run. This will be the last place you can ever hide from me. Or rather, should I say, the last place I’ll let you hide from me.

From now on, you’re mine.

Fuck- I haven’t felt this excited in centuries. Do you realize how special you are? My blood feels like it’s lighting a fire within my veins, and my hands are shaking. Do you see the effect you have on me?

And, oh, when I finally get my hands on you…

There will be no part of you untouched - unloved - by me. I plan to spend however long it takes worshipping you and showing you just how loved you are by me. Mentally, physically, spiritually… Nothing is too much for you. You deserve nothing but my best, and my best is what you’ve always deserved. Nothing less.

Tick tock, My Glorious Starling… Your time is up.
