Xiaoxi Qiang (OC) X Vyn Richter

part two coming soon!!

It was early evening and before she knew it it had become routine to enjoy Vyn’s company. Tonight it was via facetime. Xiaoxi had already dressed for bed, her blouse already traded out for a comfortable fleece sweater. Vyn, on the other hand, looked far from ready for bed. The only clue that he had even settled in was that his shirt was unbuttoned at the collar.

Talking long into the night hadn’t been uncommon, nor were her interruptions of his nightly routine. 

“I told you I’m not good at airports, they need a bigger map!” Xiaoxi insisted in between uncontrollable laughter. “It’s such a maze!”

“Where were you headed that time? I did not think you traveled that much, sunshine.”

“Oh I don’t, not so much anymore.” XIaoxi spins in her desk chair, which was only slightly out of frame of their face-time call. “That was when I was abroad in Svart, maybe it was just that airport. Svart was just confusing.”

Despite her adorable distress, Vyn can’t help but chuckle.

“Oh, that reminds me,” Vyn’s eyes, full of seriousness and a bit of concern, flitted to Xiaoxi’s. The flicker of playfulness now was completely absent from his gaze. “I am going back to Svart.”

Oh you are? That’s..” Xiaoxi’s fit of giggles died down and her eyes widened slightly. It was so sudden. It felt like she had just been punched in the gut, her heart pounded in her ears and she couldn’t believe what she was hearing. He’s…going back to Svart? To stay? 

She wanted to ask why. What happened?

It was confusing, she never imagined he would want to move back there.

The way he talked about it before, and talked about Stellis like it’s his home. 

Now, she stops making direct eye contact, pretending to busy herself with tidying her desk. She was mostly hoping to hide her true feelings. Though, with Vyn, something like that wouldn’t make a difference. Not even close. “When are you going?”

Finally, she makes the brave decision to glance up at him through her lashes. The atmosphere felt uncharacteristically tense, there was a certain emotion behind Vyn’s eyes that she’d seen before but she couldn’t put the name to. 

But just as quickly as she took note of that expression, with the subtlest shake of his head, it was gone in an instant. He softly smiled at her, slightly adjusting his phone. “After my seminar on Friday.”

Seminar, that’s right, that was the last one scheduled for the semester, just before all of the university students went on break.

There was an overwhelming amount of uneasiness in her chest. 

She had gotten so accustomed to having Vyn at her side, always there no matter what, she couldn’t even comprehend losing him. 

She didn’t want to comprehend it, she didn’t want it to happen at all.

“Don’t..!” Xiaoxi took a deep breath. A deep breath in and a careful breath out. “Don’t leave before we say goodbye, I’ll come to the airport.”

–

Airports are overwhelming. Everyone has somewhere to be and nobody spares consideration when it comes to getting to said place. 

Xiaoxi was sure she would have bruises with how many times she’d been bumped into.

It’s not that she couldn’t handle the airport, she had to face them when it came to her study abroad in Svart, and that involved a lot more..complications. All she has to do now is see a dear friend off.

A dear friend…that’s all he is. All he would ever be to her. 

This was a good thing, she couldn’t burden him with her feelings, not when he’s leaving the country, never coming back. 

Why was he doing that? 

Why now?

–

She lifted her eyes from the zoomed in map of the airport on her phone, which she opted for when she made one too many wrong turns. 

Her eyes met a head of silver in the distance, among the crowd. 

Just like that, her feet weren’t her own and she was running in his direction.

 She didn’t pay mind to the people around her, cutting through the crowd. She was smaller and easier to push around but that didn’t stop her, not even close. For once she wasn’t hesitating.

She had to reach Vyn, just one last time, that’s all she asked. 

Even if it was too late, even if he might not listen, she had to try. 

When she finally reached Vyn all thoughts left her mind. 

His hair was ever so slightly messier than usual and he looked tired, but his eyes didn’t look any less bright. In fact, for some reason they looked brighter than she’d ever seen them. A peaceful expression was on his face, his features looked much softer than usual against the golden light of the window.

When he turned his golden eyes finally met her desperate brown ones. She didn’t think it was possible at this point, but his expression softened further. “Xiaoxi-”

“Vyn, Vyn..!” XIaoxi’s chest was heaving, breaths coming out in quick bursts. “I was worried I wouldn’t make it in time..”

“You told me you wanted to see me off, of course I am still here.”

A warmth filled her chest, a brief calm against her raging thoughts. A relieved smile lit up her face for a moment before she shook her head. “I’m so glad, I had to see you.”

Vyn’s eyebrows raised but he didn’t say anything. He wanted to hear what she had to say, everything she had to say. 

He didn’t dare interrupt her. 

She had his full attention, as she always has and always will.  

“I needed to tell you, I couldn’t let you leave before I did,” with her cheeks ablaze, her chest felt tight. Was she really going to do this? No going back now. “I don’t think I’ll ever get this chance again, or at all, so it has to be now. Even though this might be one of the scariest things I’ve ever done, I’ve never done something like this.”

Another deep breath accompanied by an even shakier exhale. She could do this. 

Quickly moving her gaze from her messily laced boots, she’d done it in a hurry when coming here.

 She looks up at Vyn again. She needed to see his expression when she told him this. It’s only fair, he’s being so patient with her. But in times like this she found eye contact extremely difficult. After all, Vyn’s eyes were the brightest she’d ever seen and she always, without fail, had difficulty looking away.

Finally, she met his eyes. 

His eyebrows are slightly furrowed, a look of confusion crossing his golden eyes before he schools his features back to his attentive gaze. No matter what, he was always willing to hear her out, even in times like these when she talks too fast to understand or trips over her words in a blunder. He always waits for her.

But she didn’t have the chance to slow down and breathe. He didn’t have time to wait. 

“Vyn, I know this might sound sudden, really sudden. And I know it’s not good timing since you’re leaving but I had to tell you this before you are gone forever. You need to know about my feelings before it’s too late, but I don’t want you to leave forever.

“I don’t want you to leave forever at all, but I also know i-it’s not my place to keep you here. What I’m trying to say is that I like you, I like you so much. I love you, I didn’t think I could tell you this, well ever, but-”

Xiaoxi’s ramblings are suddenly cut short but a pair of warm arms enveloping her. Vyn’s hair tickled her face when he pulled her closer and leaned down to her level.

Xiaoxi stood on the tips of her toes and wrapped her arms around Vyn’s torso. Her own embrace lacked the usual gentleness, instead it was much tighter and desperate. A silent plea: come back, don’t stay away too long. 

She’s grown used to having a crush on Vyn, as annoying as it’s come to be, she’s grown comfortable with the fluttering in her chest. But she’d watched Vyn go plenty of times, for plenty of trips. For longer than this even. So why was now any different?

Because you love him, because you know you love him, the nagging voice at the back of her head reminded her. It’s true. It’s far more than a crush now. 

It was always Vyn who was able to quiet her thoughts so easily, so effortlessly.

“I am not leaving forever, " Vyn admits, his soft voice washing over her like a warm blanket. His breath kissed the tip of her ear.  “I was never leaving forever, just ten days.”

“Ten..days?”

Ten days. Ten days.

That’s not even close to forever. 

They would be able to spend more time together, he wouldn't leave before they could make more memories, complete every little thing they’d planned to do. 

“Just ten days, and then I will be right back to you.” 

Xiaoxi wanted to say so much more in the moment, take back every bit of her very true confession. She wanted to know what he felt, know why he hadn’t told her sooner how short his stay would be. 

She pulls away from the hug, her hands still on his back, barely brushing his jacket now, but now she could see his expression.

Most of all, she thinks, why is he looking at her like that? 

Golden eyes fixed just on her, as if there wasn’t a sea of people here. 

“Vyn, about what I said, I-“ She took a deep breath. She should explain, insist that none of what came out of her mouth was true. Maybe she could convince him of it. That  way nothing would change. Nothing would have to change when he comes back. 

“Last call for flight 2: Svart, please head to gate 7A. ”

Xiaoxi, suddenly spooked by the announcement, jumps and wiggled of of the embrace. Any longer in Vyn’s hug she was afraid she wouldn’t let him go and not let him go on his flight. He shouldn’t have to miss it because she can’t control her feelings.

Vyn doesn’t pull her back to him, instead grasps her hand with his. His hand is chilly and cool against her own, would he notice just how clammy her hands have gotten? If he had, would he say anything?

But he doesn’t comment on how uncomfortable her hands are to hold, or how inconvenient they are to hold, instead he runs his thumb along the back of her hand in a smooth caress.

“I will miss you,” Vyn whispers, his eyes holding hers. 

“I’ll miss you too, so much.”

“I promise, ten days.”

“Ten days,” Xiaoxi repeated, softer this time. 

Vyn releases her hand. He truly couldn’t stay a moment longer. His eyes hold hers a moment longer before he retrieves his bag from the ground. He must’ve dropped it when he brought her into his arms. 

“I will see you as soon as I get back, Xiaoxi.”

Through her own flushed cheeks she can only manage to nod eagerly. 

Definitely, the moment he came back, she would make sure she was there the moment he returned.

My strange tot and pjsk au (feat. my oc and my fanmade unit)

The whole Clubhouse SEKAI shabang is that every member has a special floor for them to just be themselves, so there are only 5 important floors (including the main enterence and lobby) the other floors exist, yes, but they shouldn't be messed with like the Street SEKAI's alleyways

Akikazu, wanting to be a bitchass, decided to fuck around and find out, this gets his ass thrown in Tears of Themis with the main vocaloid, Hastune Miku, and he's stuck there until futher notice

But not to fear, he used to play TOT because he had nothing better to do up to chap. 4, so he'll just have to use his lack luster memories to solve the mysteries

His backstory is also changed because he's a she, it's important to know that Akikazu doesn't give 10 fucks about his gender, he's amab and never really cared, but he was best friends with Rui and Mizuki, so take it as you will I guess, anyways

Her name is now Autumn Hawthorne, she was childhood friends with Anastasia Verity (Rosa) and Luke Pearce, she had a normal childhood with loving parents (aka Rosa's parents) and friends that cared about her from the moon and back, she wasn't exactly 'there' for Rosa due to her university studies in the capital of music and computer science, but she was the only 1 that regularly contacted her

While Autumn isn't super talented, she's an extraordinary hacker, just give her 30 minutes and she'll have the information you'll need, also she's a vocaloid producer called Amber because Miku (in this case they're the same, it's just the name change

Plot happens, what shall Autumn do to help?

This is part of my holiday challenge where I write prompts!

Today's is: Gingerbread House! This ended up being a sweet hurt comfort more than anything else but I think that fits sweet xixi and vyn more than anything else <33

Xiaoxi groaned for what felt like the millionth time that afternoon. With a helpless sigh, she slams down her failed tray of gingerbread. This time instead of undercooking it, she’d overcooked it, it was way too crisp to work with, not to mention it probably tastes awful. 

Just as she was about to forget the idea completely, a pair of warm arms wrapped around her from behind, pulling her back from the messy counter.

“Sweetheart,” Vyn only hugged her tighter when she tried to wiggle back to the counter, her smaller hands reaching back for the gingerbread crumbs. “What’s wrong?”

“I was going to make my students a big gingerbread house.” Xiaoxi explained, her lips forming into an exaggerated pout. “But, I’m a failure! Look, no matter how many times I try, it’s awful! I’m never going to bake anything ever again!”

“Xiaoxi, darling.” The seriousness of her lover’s soft voice drew her attention to him immediately. “You are  a lot of things, sweetie. You’re ambitious, stubborn, and certainly adorable. However, a failure is the one thing you are not.”

Vyn leaning forward and pressing a kiss to the corner of her lips was enough to momentarily quiet her anxious thoughts.. Or, well, all thoughts at all really. 

She hardly noticed that a smile had found its way on her face.

“So let’s see about your gingerbread, when did you want to bring this to your class?”

“Next week, but at this rate, it might not get ready. Look, this one is burned, this one is super undercooked, this one doesn’t even taste right, I don’t even know what I’m doing wrong.”

Vyn offered her a comforting gentle smile and spun her around, this time, so he could look into her chocolate eyes. He clasped both of her hands in his own, his touch was warm and comforting.

“We have time, would it be alright if I helped you?”

“But, you’re so busy! I don’t want to trouble you just for the sake of my gingerbread house!”

“You are never trouble,” Vyn smiles sweetly, leaning down and pressing a faint kiss to her palm, which was lightly coated in ginger. “Besides, nothing would bring me more joy than to bake with my beloved.”

“If you insist!” Xiaoxi declares, her voice hardly more than a squeak when her eyes met his. She wanted to look everywhere but his face right now, she was feeling the embarrassment over her outburst, over cookies nonetheless! “I’m sorry I was grumpy, I would love to have you help me..”

With an affectionate smile, Vyn brought her hand to his cheek and leaned into it. “It is alright, you were upset, my dear. I just want to be there for you, even if that entails spending every afternoon and night in the kitchen with you until we get your gingerbread house perfect.”

“Our gingerbread house,” She corrected, moving her thumb in small circles on his cheek. Was it just her or was his face slightly warmer than usual? 

“Yes, our gingerbread house,” Vyn chuckles. “Now it appears you’ve run out of gingerbread dough, shall we make some more?”

“In a minute,” Xiaoxi moves her hand away from Vyn’s face and wraps both of her arms around his waist. With little effort she presses her cheek against his chest. Though she can feel the pleasant fabric of his cashmere sweater against her skin, she can also hear his calming heartbeat. She smiles thoughtfully. “I just want to hold you for a minute, is that okay?”

“More than okay, take all of the time you need, my sunshine.” Vyn leans down and presses his cheek against the top of her head, littering intermittent kisses against her hair. “I’m not going anywhere, nor are the cookie ingredients.”

With a giggle, she squeezes him tighter, she felt Vyn's hands come up run up and down her back soothingly. With Vyn right here, even her small challenges didn't feel so insignificant anymore. He made her feel like everything that troubled her was important, upmost importance.

I’ve decided to make an oc for tears of Themis for Marius, only brief details for now, I haven’t thought that far yet 😅

Name: 张雅慧 (Maggie zhang)

Age: 25

Marius’s assistant and girlfriend.

[goat-mama-breezie]

“Well, that was fun.”

The sun had long since set on Missy’s little apartment, causing the common area to be basked in a comfortable darkness. Her remaining companion had already seated himself lazily on her couch with a content smile on his handsome face, eyes closed.

The pair had spent the last few hours playing a multitude of games with Missy’s roommate, and probably her best friend, Xiaoxi. They had started with a game of beer pong, which Xi respectively refrained from playing as she had to teach the next moring. Missy lost to Marius, which in all honesty, she was not expecting. The affects of the alcohol had lingered, though. Missy didn’t hate the slightly floaty feeling she was still experiencing.

After cup pong, the trio played a variety of card games, a round of exceedingly tame truth or dare, and a few more verbal games like would you rather before realizing how late it had gotten. They had just finalized that Marius could sleep over on the couch when Xiaoxi’s phone began to ring. Her face had turned beet red before she dashed off to her room claiming she had to take “an important phone call” in her room. Missy sent her a hurried good night and packed up the last of the games. She didn’t miss the not-so-subtle wink Xiaoxi sent her before shutting her bedroom door.

And now here they were, gathered in the livingroom where Marius planned to rest his head for the night. It was then Missy realized they were alone. “Yeah..” She stood awkwardly for a moment before deciding to sit with him on the couch. She wasn’t tired yet, and it didn’t seem like Marius was either. With an internal shrug, Missy plopped herself onto the couch with Marius and threw her legs into his lap haphazardly. She masked her surprise when he just.. accepted it and rested his hands on them without a second thought.

To break the silence, Missy cleared her throat, blurting out the first thing that came to mind. “Y’know, I know who was calling Xiaoxi..” She couldn’t look at Marius, but she could feel him listening, feel his eyes fall on her face. It urged her to continue talking. “You saw how red her face got, right?”

Marius’ hand began to run up and down one of her legs gently. It sent strange shivers down Missy’s spine. “You mean.. Vyn was calling her? Video calling? No wonder she scurried away so quick!” Marius chuckled warmly and squeezed her left calf, tugging ever so slightly toward himself. Did he want her to move closer..? “I wonder what they talk about so late..”

Missy’s legs bent slightly as she slid across the couch inch by inch. “Dunno. He calls her pretty often though. I’d try and listen to see what they’re saying, but the walls are pretty soundproof and I don’t wanna open her door and get caught tryna eavesdrop.” Finally, Missy lifts her head to look at Marius. His violet gaze is focused on his lap, or more specifically, the legs draped across his lap. There was a soft smile rested on his lips as he traced invisible lines across her skin. Missy didn’t want to distract him, but under such a gaze from him, she just couldn’t sit still. She sat up on her elbows, causing her hips to sink into the couch a bit. Her butt was against his leg. “Um.. Do you want me to get you some extra pillows and some blankets for tonight?”

Marius pulled his eyes from her freckle dotted knees to meet hers, a slightly worried look on his face. He didn’t want her to get up yet..she felt so right in his arms. “Nah, I’m okay right now. You, on the other hand, look kinda uncomfy. Here..” With one fell swoop, Marius pulled Missy the rest of the way into his lap. He cradled her around her back and grinned widely when he had achieved his goal. “There we go! All better, see! Isn’t this more comfortable than resting all your weight on your elbows?” It was hard to tell if he was teasing in situations like these, but Marius was right. Missy was more comfortable like this than how she was before.

“Y-yeah, you’re right..”

She wondered why it was so hard to breathe now, why her face felt so warm when not even a week ago, they were being even touchier and in public.. She wondered why before it was so easy to flirt and be touchy with Marius and now she couldn’t meet his eyes… She wondered why her cousin had to ask for proof of their “relationship” and why on Earth it had to be a kiss. Missy wondered why Marius had been so eager to accept the dare.. And why she had to like it so much…

To make it worse, that wasn’t the only time they kissed that night. After doing it once, as per request, the pair figured it’d be more realistic if they shared another. The second one was longer, a bit more dramatic, and a lot more conflicting for Missy’s brain. Was he staring at her lips after or was that just her imagination? Was he purposely acting touchier now..? Was his gaze.. always that soft..?

Her pink hair shook a bit as Missy tried to shake the embarrassing memory from her brain. It didn’t work too well, in all honesty. Maybe if she changed the subject? She hasn’t been quiet for too long, right?

“You know…Xi has been wanting to do a game night like this for a while. I’m glad all our schedules finally matched enough for us to.” Missy smiled softly and finally focused her eyes to look at Marius’ face. Just like before, she wondered if she was imagining his eyes softening as she spoke. Did he just.. look at her lips again, too..? “Um.. I had a lot of fun, and.. I’m actually kinda glad you’re staying the night, too.” She wasn’t being too honest, was she? Maybe she’d blame it on the alcohol from earlier… “It.. gets kinda lonely sometimes after Xiaoxi goes to bed.. and I really like your company…”

Marius was still staring at her mouth and Missy’s face was on fire because of it. She didn’t know what to do. Was Marius even paying attention anymore..?

“Marius, are you o- !!” Little did Missy know, the whole time she was chatting and trying to distract herself from her feelings, Marius was trying his hardest not to act on his. In the end, however, he couldn’t help but give in, surging forward to close the space between himself and Missy and sealing their lips together in their third kiss. The only thing different about this one is the lack of company or publicity.

After a moment of shock, Missy returned the affection gifted to her, but it didn’t last long before Marius pulled himself back and stared at her face in anticipation.

“Wh-what was that for..? There’s no one around….”

“What, do you need an audience..?”

“N-no..! It’s not like that at all..! I just…” Missy’s mismatched eyes pulled away from his sharp features to look at the cushions. She was embarrassed. “I just.. don’t want you to.. y’know.. Force yourself to pretend when it’s just us…”

“Who said anything about me pretending..?” Missy’s eyes had never been wider, surely. Her head whipped around to meet his gaze, half expecting him to have a teasy or joking expression on his face. She was incredibly taken aback when she saw just how serious Marius was about the situation. Missy searched his face frantically, waiting for the ‘Gotcha!’ or “Wow, you really fell for that easy!’, but it never came.

“You.. you aren’t pretending..?” Marius grinned then, face relaxing in a smitten gaze when he looked at Missy.

“Of course not. Not once. The only fake thing about this situation, on my end at least, is my title as your boyfriend. My feelings, gestures toward you.. they’re all real… I.. got really excited when you cousin wanted proof of our relationship. Getting to kiss you..” Marius’ hand cupped her face now, thumb brushing across her cheek before resting on her chin beneath her bottom lip. He leaned in close, breath fanning over Missy’s face. “Was and is.. A dream come true…” Softly, his lips press against her cheek, just shy of her lips, and Missy’s face erupts in a deep crimson. She was only partially upset he missed. “I’m just sad I didn’t ask you out before you needed a fake lover…”

She didn’t know when or how it happened, but Missy’s fingers were now tightly clenching the lapels of Marius’ jacket, holding him close to her unintentionally. So many words and questions circled in her head but her mouth never spoke, only opened and closed in shock. Seeing this, Marius smiled and continued. “The first time we kissed, it was like.. sparks flying, fireworks exploding.. And tell me if I’m wrong, but I think you felt it too. Little Missy started acting shy after that, didn’t she~?”

That.. was exactly how Missy had been feeling about the kiss, too… So that meant.. he felt the same? A response blurted it’s way out of her mouth before she could stop it. “That’s when I first realized…” Marius’ brows raised slightly for a moment before relaxing into his soft expression again. He even leaned in a bit closer; his nose delicately brushed against hers.

“Realized what, Jiejie..?” His thumb brushed her lip again, pulling Missy further under his spell. The nickname made her cheeks flush even more, were it possible, but it didn’t stop her honest answer.

“That I was head over heels in love with my fake boyfriend…”

It didn’t take anything more than that before Marius pulled her the rest of the way into his grasp and pressed their lips together in a searing kiss. It took no time at all for Missy to reciprocate. Her arms snaked around his sturdy shoulders and she pressed her chest against Marius’ as she openly indulged in his kisses.

Marius kept one hand on her waist, holding her firmly against his frame, while the other held the back of Missy’s head in a tender yet firm way. He didn’t want her to go anywhere.

Eventually the pair ended up lying in a heap on the couch, limbs tangled together and hot breath still mingling. Missy lies on her back, arms still around Marius’ neck while the latter has resorted to gripping at her hips with both hands. There wasn’t even a breath’s distance between the two.

Finally, when the pair grew starved for air, they separated. Missy was in a daze after such a powerful kiss while Marius simply stared down at her with an awestruck expression. Breathlessly, he spoke just louder than a whisper.

“Jiejie.. I don’t wanna be your fake boyfriend anymore… Can I be your real boyfriend already..?” For added measure, Marius added his signature pout and puppy eyes, as if Missy needed any more convincing.

“Marius von Hagen… as if I could say anything other than ‘absolutely’…!” Giggles burst from her lips excitedly when she answered him and Missy’s arms tightened ‘round his neck. She buried her nose there too, to hide how flushed her face had become. In turn, Marius felt elated. He let his hands move from holding her hips to wrapping around her middle and hugging her close. It only lasted a moment, though, before Marius pulled away.

“I’m so happy, Missy! I don’t have to hold back anymore… And next time we get invited to a family gathering of yours, we don’t have to ‘put on a show’. That is, unless you want to..” Missy released her hold around his neck to peer into his amethyst eyes. She grinned.

“Oh, yes. I do wanna put on a show… I want my whole family to be jealous of my score of a boyfriend~.” Marius wasn’t expecting her to reply so forewardly and the shock showed on his face briefly in the form of reddened ears and wide eyes before shifting to a look of pride, awe. “That isn’t a problem, right?”

“No.” Maybe he answered too quickly, but neither of them cared. “Make them jealous.. ‘cause I’m all yours. In fact.. I challenge you to fluster me around them.. really play it up. Maybe then they’ll know how serious you are. You just gotta be able to take it, too, though.. I won’t be going easy on you just because you’re my girlfriend…”

Hearing him call her that term, calling Missy his girlfriend and meaning it, made her heart hammer in her chest. She glanced between Marius’ eyes a few times before leaning up and kissing him. Somehow, Marius was able to predict it, either that or he simply reacted quickly, and kissed her back.

They shared a few more sweet kisses before Missy’s soft hands pressed against his broad chest. Mismatched eyes searched his amethyst ones with a wide smile. “You’ve got a deal, handsome… Now, c’mon, let’s go to bed.” Marius wasn’t expecting that. He looked a bit stunned. “What, would you rather sleep out here alone? Why do that when there’s a perfectly good bed and body pillow in my room?”

“You’re okay with that..?”

“Marius, I wouldn’t have mentioned it if I wasn’t okay with it.” She shimmed out from beneath him a little before continuing. “Come on, come with me, please. This couch isn’t actually that comfy and.. I’ll feel better if you come with me. No funny business, I promise.” She tried her own ‘hurt puppy’ look then, pouting a bit and begging with her eyes.

It didn’t take much for Marius to agree.

They made their way up to Missy’s bedroom with hands wound together, and when Missy tugged him through the doorway, Marius observed the room in wonder. When his eyes fell onto her bed, his features shifted to confusion. “I thought you said you had a body pillow..”

Missy turned to face him with a giggle, tugging him the rest of the way to her bed before releasing his hand and flopping down onto her comforter. “I do, see? I’m the body pillow.” She giggled again and let out a yawn. “Now come snuggle with me, it’s time for sleeps..”

Marius smiled softly and climbed into bed, falling perfectly into Missy’s waiting arms. After a few more goodnight kisses, the pair fell asleep in each others arms, resting comfortably with each other. Missy would have to update her roommate of their relationship in the morning, if Xiaoxi didn’t figure it out herself, first.

Super hyped for your ToT OC!

Thank you, Anon! Here is my ToT oc! For her name, I was not sure if it should have been Aria, or Ash, so I used a wheel picker and Ash won. Lmk what you think!

Name: Ash

Nicknames: Senpai (Marius' nickname for her), Partner (Luke's nickname for her when teasing her), Misfortune (her nickname to herself,

originated from [̴̛̦͓̜̟͖͔͖̣̦͚̅͊̓̕͜͝F̵̞̟̼̥͚͐̍͜͜I̸̭̬̍̏̐L̸̹̘͉̰̓̊̆̉͗̅̂̕Ë̸̢̢͉̤̱͓̥̫͈̼̩͆͛͋̚ ̶̭̮̤͕͔͔̥̖͒̃̋̚͠C̷̤̘̀̅̆͘O̷̢̦̾̈͌̋͋͠ͅR̴͙͚̭̘̳̤̠̤͉̜͍̀̅̏̏̆̏͊̈́́͝R̵̨̪̣͓̟̝̖̪͂͑̄̎̈͝ͅŰ̴̳̄̈̓͑̀̇͝P̸̧̗̠̻͛͛̿̏̓͒͛͛͝͝T̴̳̣͖̝̞̦̗̳͔͊͋̐̓͆̓͆̕È̴͐̋͑̎͆͋̂̅��͚͎̺̥̹D̴͎̎́̈̚͘]̴̢͖̩̭̦̪͔̫̯̏͌̉̒̅̚

Age: 27

NXX and NSB Agent name: Ace

Appearance: Short (153 cm tall/5ft 2 in) with medium length hair tied in a ponytail (when hot or working) or open (other times), wears glasses unless at work, then she uses contacts. Has curly hair but keeps it straight so it's not too bushy and usually keeps a bracelet on that Luke gifted her.

Personality: Quiet most of the time, likes teasing her friends occasionally, gentle yet strict, stubborn and short tempered yet somewhat patient. Almost motherly and takes care of her friends when they need her most. Overall introverted.

History: While growing up, Ash was never close to any of her peers, nor was she very liked due to reasons unknown to her. Whoever was close to Ash ended up leaving her, so Ash got used to being alone, separating herself from the world while she fought her wars alone.

Ash joined the NSB two years before Luke and was his senior, having been assigned the task of training him. Ash was gentle with Luke outside of training, but showed him little mercy when they were training, only stopping when he couldn't go on. The day Luke defeated her in training, she gave him a proud smile and pat his back, and that was how they became partners. Besides Aaron and Luke, Ash never really spoke to the other agents as she struggled to communicate her thoughts properly. The only time Ash was able to show her thoughts without effort was when Luke was in danger: she disregarded her own safety to save him.

Always being one to listen to people's problems, Ash always kept her problems to herself and never told anyone about her inner demons. Upon her and Luke arriving to Stellis, Ash had finally broke. All alone while the NXX were out, Ash was in the NXX HQ when it happened. All her years of fighting alone took its toll, and she would have been lost if not for Artem who found her.

After that incident, Ash became comfortable around Artem as well, often seeking him out for things while he sought out her advice on certain tasks. This caused Marius to grow suspicious of Ash, thinking she was a threat if she got people on her side so quickly. Until Ash approached him one day and gave him a hug, knowing he was having a bad day and that he may need a hug without him saying anything. That was how Marius realised how caring Ash was, and took a liking to her.

Ash was very wary of Vyn, until the day that she lost one thing she cared about most and Vyn helped her the most. From then, she would run to him to hang out or do something relaxing, knowing it soothed him as well due to him being like her: not speaking about his own problems while helping others with theirs.

Friends: Aaron, The NXX and Darius

Love interest: "Classified." —Ash/Agent Ace

Final note:

Ash used to be a sensitive person, yet circumstances turned her into the person she is today. Like any person, Ash has her good moments, and her bad moments, but she doesn't put anyone down. She knows how it feels. The NXX all have their own problems, and they take care of each other, but do they see Ash as the strong Agent Ace, or the girl who lost her innocence so long ago?

May I have this dance?  ☀︎

Xiaoxi prepared a surprise for her students, who missed dressing up. But she was the one who ended up surprised.

Ms. Xiaoxi goes above and beyond for her students. It wasn’t an opinion, it was ore of a fact. Any of the other teachers she worked with, who doubted her abilities, quickly came around to that fact. How could they not? Any child who has been in her classroom for even a minute absolutely fell in love with her.

Every moment in her class was special, and well, today was no different.

It’s not Halloween or a special occasion really. 

But, her students worked so hard, so she enlisted the help of a few fellow teachers who decided to stay late. She’d gotten so engrossed in her work that when Vyn came by her classroom to pick her up, she hadn’t even heard him come in. Her hands were wrapped in party streamers she was attempting to hang up.

“My love, what’s all of this?” Vyn’s voice was soft and she could feel his breath on the side of her face. He wrapped an arm around her waist and settled behind her comfortably. 

Xiaoxi couldn’t help but smile as she pinned one end of the party streamer to the wall and turned a little so she could see Vyn’s face. Her smile only grew wider. “I’m just setting something up for my kids. they said they missed dressing up and stuff from Halloween, so I thought, maybe they would like another opportunity to dress up. What do you think?”

“What is the opportunity, what have you planned?”

Xiaoxi’s eyes sparkled, she would never get over how interested Vyn was in everything she did. She turned back to her streamer, pinning another few spots on it. Now it finally was out of her hands. She kept her hands on it though, an excuse to avoid his gaze a little longer out of embarrassment. “Well, how about a costume party, with some snacks.”

She turned around then to see Vyn’s reaction.

His features softened and he took her hands in his gently. He helped her off the chair she’d been standing on so that her feet were flat on the ground now. But, now she has to make more effort to look at him, she never minded though.

“What a wonderful idea,” he took the opportunity and pressed a kiss to the top of her scalp. “Are you excited?”

She nodded excitedly, a smile still very much present on her face. The only change in her expression was the warmth that danced on her cheeks. “Of course,” she squeezed his hands in hers. “You know how much I like to dress up!”

Vyn chuckled, the sound was sweet against her ear. “That I do. Although, you have never needed to put in any extra effort to be beautiful to me.”

Xiaoxi jumped with a light gasp, her face flushing even more. She’d been so surprised she tore her hands from Vyn’s unknowingly. “That’s not fair, you can’t say things like that all of a sudden, I-”

Instead of reaching for her hands again, Vyn pulled her close, so that her cheek pressed against his chest. “I meant every word,” Vyn murmured. 

She’d started to make a sound of protest, but instead she hummed contently into his embrace, moving her own arms to wrap around him. “I know,” she said lightly, settling further into him.

After staying like that for a while longer, they separated and decided to work on the rest of the decorating together.

 It was while they were tying a few last balloons that Xiaoxi finally told him what her costume was going to be. And the smile he directed at her following that was enough to make her heart leap out of her chest again. 

—

The evening of the actual costume party, or well, more like a costume dance, Xiaoxi saw a lot of lovely costumes. 

A few of her students had come in their costumes from halloween, that they loved that much. Other’s came with one that was brand new. Regardless though, whether she'd seen them or not, they were all equally wonderful too. But, that was entirely because all of her students were smiling. 

She smiled to herself, she would give anything for her students to be this happy all the time. Maybe she should do more stuff like this. 

Xiaoxi dressed up, just like she told Vyn about. Her costume was a princess, which was obvious by the simple tiara on her head and the long yellow dress she wore. Even in the dim-warm lights of her classroom, the sparkles on her dress made her feel like a real fairytale princess.

Which, her students definitely had told her, too. One of them even asked who her fairy godmother was. 

Or, one of them asked where her prince was.

She giggled and waved her hand at that one. She’d been prepared to tell that very student that she wasn’t accompanied by a prince tonight. 

Suddenly, the students that occupied their desks with snacks gasped and went to point behind Xiaoxi. But then quickly settled back down for some reason. 

Quirking her eyebrow, she was tempted to explain that pointing is rude, not to point at someone-

But then she felt someone tap her shoulder, and it sent a familiar wave of goosebumps along the bare skin of her arm. So she whipped head around. And immediately she gasped. 

Vyn was here, or well, should she call him Prince Vyn instead?

He looked like a proper fairytale prince, and matched her effortlessly. She was finding it hard to tear her eyes from him. 

Time felt like it was frozen as he took her hand in his, but it was much different. His hands were a little chiller, the smooth fabric of his gloves brushed against her skin.

He brought her hand to his lips and pressed his lips to her knuckles, looking up at her. The kiss was so soft, so gentle, she hardly knew it was there. She might not have even felt it if not for the way her complete attention was on him. Behind his glasses, his golden eyes were filled with pure adoration.

Their moment was briefly itnerupted by one of her female students, who screeched,“Dance with her, prince!”

When they turned their attention to her students they were looking at them expectantly. This was what Xiaoxi gets for reading every fairytale princess story she could, huh? She didn’t mind though. Her students were cheering her on, she knew it. 

She couldn’t help but wonder what class would be like next time. 

Xiaoxi turned her attention back to Vyn, who looked like he was waiting for her to meet his eyes. He smiled, his lips met her knuckles again and she had to fight the urge to squeal. The difference was, this time he was bowed, like a real prince.

“May I have this dance, princess?”

Xiaoxi’s face lit up and her cheeks warmed again. She manages to find her voice when she gazes at him this time. Her lips quirk into a sweet smile, the type of smile that Vyn has rambled about in the past. “Of course, my prince.”

Some of her students clapped, while others gushed about how there was a “real life princess and prince” who were about to dance just for them. Xiaoxi was giddy, so giddy. It seemed to rub off on Vyn, too, because when he stood properly, he snuck her a nose-kiss.

Though it could hardly be counted as a sneaky kiss when Xiaoxi reacts by giggling like a schoolgirl over it. Though, when didn’t she when it came to Vyn and all of his affection. Every bit of it.

Vyn kept that on hand of hers in his, gently. His other arm wrapped around her waist firmly, keeping her close to him. They’d assumed this position before, this was far from their first time dancing together. So Xiaoxi knew she had to put her hand on his shoulder. 

And even if she understood the dance well, she was perfectly happy with letting him take the lead. The notes of the music she’d started to play through her bluetooth speaker when the party started began to cycle back to the beginning of her playlist. She’d almost forgotten about it. The soft notes of the music felt perfect right now. One of her favorite classical pieces was playing and it felt right. 

When they started swaying back and forth and flowing with the music, she could tell VYn felt the same way. 

As it turned out though, one dance turned into two, then two into three. 

Xiaoxi’s students had to interrupt her dance, a few younger boys this time, tugging on the fabric of her dress. It was enough to make Xiaoxi avert their attention to them. 

The party was almost over, she supposed, so she decided to give her students their dance, for a little while. And while she’d done that, Vyn wanded over to some of her other students and hung out with them. They adored him, almost as much as Xiaoxi, herself.

The end of the celebration came quickly, and as soon as the last parent picked up the last student, Xiaoxi closed her classroom door and started to take down some of the decorations to store away in a box.

“You did a really good job today, darling.”

Xiaoxi turns her head and smiles at Vyn brightly, “Thank you, and thank you for coming to see me!”

Vyn, who was leaning against a desk, steps towards her and cradles her cheek in his hand, “How could I not? We were planning on getting together anyways, right?”

“It made me happy, I felt like an actual princess,” Xiaoxi giggled and leaned her cheek further into the palm of his hand. His hand was much warmer now, and his gloves were gone. He must’ve set them aside. He did know that likes the feeling of his hands on her face like this, without gloves or anything in between.

“You definitely are like an actual princess to me, Xiaoxi.” He chuckled, making sure to kiss her cheek. “You’re…so beautiful.”

“What about you, you look gorgeous!” Xiaoxi exclaimed, putting her own hand on Vyn’s face, thumb caressing the mole under his left eye. The action made his eyes widen slightly before relaxing into her touch, leaning into it. She swore she might’ve heard his breath hitch, could I have been her imagination. “I feel very lucky right now!

With a soft chuckle he leaned close enough to where his breath fanned over her face, tickling her eyelashes. “As do I, my rose. You make me feel so lucky.”

Without thinking, Xiaoxi closes the distance. Pressing her lips against Vyn’s softly and kissing him gently. Vyn hummed and kissed her just as softly, bringing his hand to tuck a piece of hair behind her ear and then letting his hand go back to her cheek.

Even after they separated, neither of them moved their hands and stayed close, every breath mingling together.

“I love you,” Xiaoxi murmured, leaning her head on his shoulder tiredly. It was getting kind of late for her now, considering all of the preparations she’d done. 

“I love you so much, more than words can say.” Vyn whispered into her hair. Xiaoxi sleepily giggled against his shirt and wrapped her arms around him tightly. “You’re everything to me.”’

Later, Vyn would take her back to her house, giving her a proper goodnight kiss, but the night lingered in his mind more than necessary. A smitten smile not once leaving his face.

Bonus pics lol! I'll be moving these over to my writing blog to go along with the intro post of my christmas/holiday event, but here's a sneak peek! Temperance here to spread some holiday cheer!

Not the best with this sorta thing, but I did my best and I like it! I personally prefer the pencil one since its my preferred media anyway, but I think both look good! Ft. Plush Raphael because I can lol.

Temperance/Tempo is usually the name and general form I use for all my MC's or self insert OC's(Like Obey me, Genshin, and ToT, but minus the tail and wings for that last one). Still He/they lol. Outfit is based off a dress a friend bought me, but it was too short at the bottom so I have to wear slacks with it.
