#thanks for asking hun!!

[arttsuka]

Eating your art style, sorry

Anyways, imagine if Jed can read Chinese (learned from the railroad workers, both historically and movie canon! Well meaning they speak Chinese in the movie) And translates something into English for Larry while everyone just collectively goes "sorry, huh?"

Larry would be so done with that situation

Imagine your boyfriend knowing Chinese but not being able to learn Latin

Edit: there's, there's a fanfic of this now. Go read it.

shorts and socks 🤠

Rumour has it that he wanted to wear thigh-high socks to make his legs look good (the jealousy tour for Max's attention continues), but this was the only socially exceptable length he could wear 😞

[paper-lilypie]

This just occurred to me.

For the Ballput au...

Will the nightmare animatronics be roaming the house at night or is it going to be Evan's imagination? I can see Gregory opening the door to get a glass of water only to see a ruined animatronic in the hallway.

That is a fucking terrifying thought and im so happy you mentioned it.

The thing I kind of wanna do with ball pit au is play around with the thought that terrors come to life. So ough i can just imagine a sleepover setting where Mike and Gregory start hearing and seeing shit and its slowly driving Mike insane because the fear factor has spiked to 100 and he’s too afraid to check what the scratching outside the door is—

And Greg does it for him, immediately being met with an amalgamation of yellow, red and razor sharp rust.

So much screaming that particular time.

Hyrule and soldiers

"So you're a soldier?" Hyrule asked the skyloftian, who sat beneath a tree while flicking a stream of notes on his harp.

The skyloftian paused, the traveller stood watching his movements intently as he placed his harp down gently beside him.

"Not exactly, We dont have a military, the knights of my time protect our home, the people and each other, Skyloft is a pretty dangerous place when it wants to be." The Skyloftian smiled fondly, his eyes gazing skyward. "But it's home, and it always will be."

Finally figured out how to do asks 💀

SUGARPASTELLL

CHAPTER 23 HAS MY HEART RACING. 100% drawing radio host Neon Leon

I have a theory for the next chapter, but don't tell me I wanna still be surprised.

THE NEON VOID, CHAPTER 23 SPOILERS

— — — — —

So like, scavenger hunt right? It's smart that Mikey(and maybe everyone else) went to places that would be memorable for Void. But my theory is that Raph will go to Metro Tower's ruins and find the real key there. I was wondering while reading why Void's dum Krang brain didn't take over and just open the portal on top of Big Mama's hotel. There are people everywhere that would be the first to be attacked, its a high place(which seemed to be a big thing in the movie) so why not? Could just be that Void was just too excited, which has been shown that he keeps it to the back of his head and sometimes literally pushing it back lol. ORR its just waiting. It probably already knows he's going to hide out at Metro for the 'big surprise,' so it might just flip the switch there.

— — — — —

Anyways, if you see this, thanks for reading lol. It's bittersweet to me that this story is almost over, since I started reading once chapter 19 came out, but this has been a great rollercoaster of emotions! You're an incredible writer, and I hope you had fun with this story too! It's awesome to see a community of artists, writers, song artists, and more enjoying one story and having fun.

Jeez.. it sounds like a sendoof at a funeral- All I'm tryna say is, thank you! And I can't wait for what's next in TNV and whatever comes later on. 💚

AWWWW!!! this is so sweet you're so nice! i'm so happy that you're enjoying the story-- because i'm having a wonderful time writing it and i'm absolutely floored by the kindness and energy the community has received it. Seriously, thank you and everyone who enjoys my silly little story-- ya'll are amazing 🩵🩵🩵

hehe and that's a fun theory!! but you'll just have to wait and see~

[specksizedgoddess]

A giant sluggirl at the office has taken notice of you. At first you thought she was just clumsy, almost sliding over you while you're on you ways to meetings, but you've notices she leaves an impenetrable coating of slime right outside your cubicle* right before lunch like every day. (*a small, 3" cardboard box - you did not find your job particularly fulfilling).

One day at the water cooler, she almost crushed you while installing a new jug--you spoke up, finally voicing how you felt like how she was ignoring you. Her eye-stalks leered at you, "Why would I care what a speck thinks?" she sneered. The blatant violation of HR policy, the slow realization that some of her past behaviors may have been intentional. You felt so small. "B-but!" you protested. "What do you even do here? If you dissolved in my mucus would anyone here even notice? Be real."

She knocked you into a cup when another coworker passed by and drank from it. You shouted and tried frantically to avoid being sucked down--but none of your noises were big enough to make it to the coworker. After he left, she peered down at you and chuckled. "Give me a good reason to not just end you". Strangely flustered but also desperately afraid your mouth spoke without your permission to use you as she wanted. She smiled and slid back to her cubicle, leaving you in the cup.

Upon arriving at her cubicle, you bore witness to her horribly messy workstation, the residual ooze from her coating nearly everything. She dumps you out on the desk, and mocked, "How about you keep this place spotless". Before you could get to your knees to start scrubbing with your hands, she tossed a bundle of fabric, "dress the part" She had this prepared

You put on the outfit, a parody of a business-woman and a maid with hardly any fabric, all your bits spilling out. She laughed at you and your ridiculous clothes. Humiliated, again you protested, "W-when HR finds, HR finds out--" "--Girl, I've got freckles bigger than your dick, and pores bigger than your tits, you really think you've got the guts to bring this up?" The speck had no guts.

Tuesday. You brought your meal-prep for the week. You cleaned a square foot. She took your lunches and used them as a garnish on her lunch. She laughed at your tiny, sweaty body squirming to clean off her ooze from more of the desk. She left, the floor completely covered in slime, blocking your exit. An all-nighter.

Wednesday. You're rags were stained. She refused to clean them. You were so hungry you resorted to eating the crumbs left around. When you asked for something to drink, she cocked her arm and dropped her armpit over you, glazing you in some wretched liquid. The strap that covered your left boob finally gave out. Another all-nighter.

Thursday. You were so hungry you were considering cleaning with your tongue. She told you to dance for your lunch. You almost got someone's attention, but she played it off as though she were watching something on her phone. As punishment, she glazed the 2.5 sqft you'd cleaned with a fresh coat of slime. At least the speck had something to drink. Still trapped. Another all-nighter.

Friday. When you saw her in the morning you asked for something to drink, and unconsciously opened your mouth to her armpit in the sky. She did not let you live that down. Teasing you for giving up so easily. She spat on you for your daily hydration. You danced for her, none of the original outfit remaining, when you wanted lunch instead of asking like a person with dignity might've.

A week had passed of this humiliation and she was right. No one noticed your absence. Not at the meetings, the water cooler, or lunch. You were just a toy for the mean slug girl to play with and mock. It was bad enough that you were a worthless mote, but before closing, she made you say it. She pushed you down with her finger, twice as large as your torso and a million times larger than your ego, and pinned you down, and told you to call yourself her toy. The speck acquiesced. Then she twirled her finger, rubbing the bug in placed, and asked if it liked it, if it liked being nothing but her toy. Again, the speck said yes--though this seemed to anger her.

"God, I wanted this thing to last longer," she lamented, "it's no fun when it doesn't even try to fight back" The speck lied there, unthinking--thinking was for girls with dignity after all--and waited. She threatened to get the mote fired--no, girls get fired, such a threat was meaningless for a worthless crumb. "Dance!", and the dust speck danced "Beg!", and the bug pantomimed "Cum when I bully you!", and the kinky mote began to leak "No no! This is too easy! You'd let me swallow you whole wouldn't you!", the speck stretched out its arms to welcome the oral embrace

Strangely she felt compelled to follow through, and grabbed the thing up in her jaws. Mumbling to herself, "If it was fine being eaten, why would it have offered to do anything I asked back then"

The sudden change of heart, the slow realization that some of this speck's submission may have been intentional. She felt so played, "w-wait" she gulped.

And with that, Eve smiled as she slid down into that slimey slug stomach. She may not have been able to give two week's notice, but she'd have two minute's fun down here before finally finding fulfilling work: as empty calories for a hot workplace bully.

HDJDJDJFJD OH MY FUCKING GOD HUN

I COUPD READ THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN THIS IS SO FUCKING PERFECT

I GENUINELLY DONT KNOW WHAT TO ADD I WAS. HUMPING A PILLOW WHILE READING THIS- IMMEDIATELY ADDING THIS TO MY FAVORITES, THIS MIGHT BE MY FAVORITE ONE YOUVE SENT PERIOD-

Oh my GOD I need this so badly... overworked, exhausted, baggy-eyed and feeling useless to the company... all I needed was for her to show me just how useless I really was....

Finally a real job... I fucking love the idea of being too small and far too weak to even escape her cubicle if I wanted, its my new home... I exist for her, I exist to serve her- the humiliation makes me tremble, and half the times when she's gone (and often when she's not) I'm leaking like a FOUNTAIN onto her desk, imagining her comments... my body on full display for her, the least I could do- SGJDDJF GOD

I NEED THIS LEVEL OF HUMILIATION SO FUCKING BADLY OH MY GOD

I could bring up every little bit, I could fawn over this for fucking PARAGRAPHS, but I. Am gonna refrain myself... hdhdjjrd god I love this so so so SO much thank you-

... I will say that the um. freckles bigger than your dick and pores bigger than my tits part might have made me audibly squeal....

Need this so badly... I need to be a tiny thing at the mercy of an office bully... I should have known when she vandalized the "Treat Tiny Co-Workers with Respect!" posters with her ooze... GODDDDDDD

KISSING YOU YOU BRILLIANT BRILLIANT GAHCHAHCJSJD GOSH <33333

What ever happened to Yao, Ling and Chien Po? What are they up to?

Thank you for the question!

Just like General Shang, the trio sometimes visit the Ger. (although they would much prefer to meet up with Mulan at Mei's noodle store..)

The kiddos have no problem with them, and think they're pretty funny!

Their uncles are a different story..

Please excuse Tsetseg's hair. Chag was supposed to braid it.

So… Lee✨

I heard you got badly bruised, mind if I check? ;)

Also how did you get that bad?

~Brina

(Waaa first roleplay ask! >.< I hope i do well!)

Lee had been resting under a tree when Brina approached him fearlessly.

He opens his eye, his lips twitching, the shadow of a smile playing there. "You're a bold one, aren't you?"

He sits upright, then stands, looking Brina up and down in contemplation. "Bold and handsome. But much too young for me."

He buries his hands in his pockets and leans backward against the tree he'd been sleeping under.

His eye sweeps up to search for the blue of the sky, but there are only clouds. "Whyever did I get this bad..."

Lee's pockets shift as he clenches his fists. He sighs, closes his eye and shrugs half heartedly. "Well. I suggest you don't put your trust in someone without knowing their limits first."

Then he straightens up, gives him a polite nod and walks off to find a more peaceful spot to continue his nap.

[nsharks]

omgggg blue definitely screamed because new people showed up, it can’t be greys because they would’ve smelled it. If it’s that cannibal guy again, he’s catching hands immediately but if it’s maybe some og cod characters (gaz) 👀… jealous ghost maybe? those are the 2 theories I have in mind for who screamed and why they did but I’m so excited to see what it actually was in the new chapter 😭

this chapter was amazing, thank you so so much for putting in all the effort because it truly shines through in your writing. get some well deserved rest sharkie 💗✨

Oh interesting theories! Glad you enjoyed ❤️

DARCY IN MY ASKS YAYYYYY

Thank you for the ask, love <3 I've been itching to talk about writing for the past week or so

Caught up in rumours (I bet you wish you knew the truth) is my favourite. I think maybe it's because it's my most recent one but I still think about it often. It's fluffy, it's sweet, and they're both idiots in love. I feel like with this one, I finally did the idea in my head justice. (I'm also still riding the high of the compliment @starrwrrld gave me on this fic yesterday!! YOURE AN ACTUAL SWEETHEART SAM) Anyhow, sapphic lestappen are my babies. I fluff up their pillows, tuck them into bed every night, give them warm milk, and read them bedtime stories

Trying to Choke Down the Feeling (Bubbling Up Like the Champagne on Your Skin) Okay, I have a love-hate relationship with this one because I know I could have done so much more but at the same time I feel like I did too much. But it's the first fic I ever wrote (I got shy and didn't post it), and therefore, it is my baby. I will cradle it to sleep even if it is sleeping on the floor

You're just so sweet Do I have a reason to like this fic? Not really, I think the formatting is a bit weird, and I could do better. Does it have sapphic lestappen? Yes. Is that the sole reason it's on this list? ...No further questions, your honour. (This fic gets its own room with a fully stocked snack cabinet and the fluffiest pillows known to man, but the windows are locked and permanently sealed because I don't trust it)

I just want you to do me no good (And you look like you could) The only reason this unfinished amalgamation has been put out into the world is because @marieshyperf1xations enabled me. And it's self-indulgent as fuck. Was it remotely near Christmas time when I started writing it? Uh, no, it was actually mid-February. Have I ever celebrated Christmas ever? No, dude, I'm so lost with this one. Will I finish it around Christmas time? God, I hope so. "Go lay down in bed, sweetie. I'll come tuck you in!" "Mum!!! It's midnight. You still haven't shown up :("

I'd do anything to make this memory stay I'll be so real, I have no idea what this is. Royalty AUs are to die for, though, and I wanted to try my hand at it. It's not long enough to be anything substantial, but I think it's cute, and at the end of the day, fluff is all that matters.

[paper-lilypie]

Oooo!! For CCRT y/n:

1. What’s the lie your character says most often?

11. If someone was impersonating them, what would friends / family ask or do to tell the difference?

26. How would they respond to being fired by a good boss?

28. What do they tell people they want? What do they actually want?

heheehe oh how fun!

1.) “I’ve got this/I can handle this.”

11.) “What happened to Riley?”

26.) Politely accept the dismissal, maybe crack a halfhearted joke or two, then return home and shut themselves in their room to self destruct.

28.)

What they say they want: to be someone the kids can rely on

What they really want: to be wanted

[fkinavocado]

Just wanted to let the "older" virgins that have written in that it's ok and don't compare yourself to others. When you're ready, you're ready. And don't let anyone influence that.

I was a virgin till I was 25....and honestly by that point it was almost my identity. But in reality, it wasn't. I allowed it to be my identity, but I was so much more than that. And if the person you're with makes fun of you for being in your 20s and a virgin, then maybe thwy arent worthy of you.

ABSOLUTELY yes!!!

[tachimichishrine]

Okay sooooo I’ve been reading your stuff for a couple of days now and IM OBSESSED I love the way you write tachi so if it’s okay, could I request an x reader where the reader is a weapon’s engineer? bonus points if she’s a chemical engineer by profession IF YOU WRITE THIS THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH have a great day

<AKH TYSM??? giggling isn't a strong enough word i'm rolling on the floor blushing,,, sorry for the long build up and it had less tachi appearances than i intended agagagagagh I hope this is what you wanted, have a lovely day darling ♡>

tachihara michizou x fem! chem eng! reader

warnings: none :) just fluff n plot, slight cursing n intended lowercase

a searing sting, ringing in ears, ash fluttering all in the surroundings; the world has become a wasteland, and you were nestled warmly in the safety of a suit designed to handle the radiation from the outside. you watched the blocks of metal melt lopsidedly, a displeased tsk accompanying your scowl at the failure. they were not meant to come apart so easily.

"goddamn it!" you yanked the zipper that lined your chest, tearing it off until the oversized suit was open enough to slump off. with a fury that caused every man watching you to clear their throats, become incredibly interested in a speck on their shoes or take a step back out of fear, you pulled off the costume and threw it to the ground. you even spat on it, grumbling vexedly, "that should've worked."

the admiral looked at you with a raised brow, clearly not impressed by your childish reaction. you couldn't care less; this was your one chance of hitting it big. you were hired by the government to create a chemical similar to sleeping gas capable of only targeting the enemy, except they didn't quite want their enemies to take a nap. you had a logical solution, and worked on it with your team for months; today was the demonstration to show all the important men what their money had been funding.

yes, what you did was despicable. you created weapons of mass destruction, turned simple assortments of molecules and rearranged them in a way that could turn a solider inside-out. however, the scope was beyond you; you simply made the tools, and their use was not up to you. many of your colleagues knew about the kind of iron stomach needed to work in this field, and no one ever said a word. you had a cadaver which you mutilated during trials of reactions with the flesh, and not a single person looked each other in the eyes during the tests. yet you all knew that you were more powerful than those who wielded the codes, those who held the guns and those whose whispers into a phone could turn an entire city to rubble. all because you had the ability to create such horrifying devices.

this one had been working up until today's demonstration. it was a highly pressurized container that, when detonated, would slowly disperse in the air and corrode everything except the metal blocks you coated in the other substance that would negate its effects, cancel out the reaction and subsequently keep the bearers intact. however, something seemed to have happened and the bearers were very much not intact.

you were now stripped of the protective gear, walking in the toxic chemicals freely like it was a breath of fresh air. the colonels and officials gawked at you from behind their protective screen, to which you snapped out of your fury and chuckled, seeming almost embarrassed. you didn't know which ones were up to date on abilities, but you decided that it wasn't your job to explain to them that you have the gift of immunity to toxic substances. the suit was a decoration, more than anything, designed to be worn by the rest of your team who were sulking behind you at the disappointing results.

"[_____], knock it off," one of them placed a hand on your shoulder and tried to bring you back to reality. "we were monitoring the conditions, so we'll just have to take a look to see what caused the error."

you scowled, not wanting to admit that they were right. with a shrug to get rid of their hand, you excused yourself and walked over to the pressurized door that separated you from your clients. you threw it open, your clothes starting to fray at the exposure (quite slowly, given that your sweat was doing a pretty good job at protecting them from the chemicals), and stormed inside. the man who'd initially approached you for this job - a nameless colonel, a man whose face you could barely remember - was walking away, disappointed. you didn't like the feeling of failure, but this added insult to injury.

yet, you barely had a choice to follow him and explain that this was a one-off, that your process and methodology was sound and would be peer-reviewed if it wasn't highly politicized and you could publish your work. you left everyone behind as you walked the hallways of the facility to find him.

of course the place was a maze. every hallway looked identical, every door and every room the same and god forbid you put a map somewhere. soon enough, the layout had engulfed you whole and there was nothing you could do to stop it except continue walking and hope you would get out, never mind find the admiral.

you caught a glimpse of a strongly built man, tuffs of white sprouting out the back of his head and you called out to get his attention, given that the way he was walking made it appear that he knew where he was going. he turned around; it was a living legend.

a chance encounter led to you babbling like a fan girl about how incredible the fukuchi ochi was, and he seemed to be enjoying the praise because he walked you down to his office and offered you hard liquor at 2 in the afternoon. you told him that alcohol didn't affect you (your body treated it like a toxic substance and isolated it from your system), but he thought you were exaggerating and challenged you to a drink-off. your day was already ruined from what had just happened, and you figured that this kind of opportunity doesn't come around every day.

you told yourself that it didn't matter and pulled yourself a seat with a grin.

turns out you were one lucky bastard.

even though you clearly beat him at his challenge, he seemed to take a liking to your spirit and heard you out when you explained your current situation. he must've made some calls or talked to some people, because your funding had not only not vanished the next day, but you were told it was tripling. you had a hard time convincing your coworkers that you didn't give the admiral one hell of a blowjob to make this happen.

you didn't dare venture through the facility and risk being locked out in an area where you didn't have clearance, so you just politely asked around for fukuchi's location in order to properly thank him.

it took a while, but you were told to head to some kind of training grounds at the back of the building. the place itself was mostly underground, given that most of the research happening was highly classified or highly controversial, so you were slightly surprised to find out people actually used the first floor. your clearance didn't let you get in, but you laundered around the door pretending to be on a phone call long enough for someone who did have clearance to open it and be careless enough to let you waltz in behind them.

once you reached what amounted to the backyard of the government facility, you saw fukuchi sitting down lazily, a hand waving around messily while he energetically said something at the two men who were doing alternating pull ups on a bar and a little girl who was doing one-handed push ups while smiling widely at him.

you stepped outside, a little uncertain of what you were intruding on given that it seemed like they were soldiers, but the entire group seemed to be painfully unorganized. despite this, you were set on thanking the old man for what he did, so you took another step.

a man was running towards you on the left, the sweat dripping down his arms and face signaling that he's been running for a long time, and you only heard his footsteps too late. he was zoned in and you were zoned out; your bodies collided and soon enough you were laying on the ground while he teetered on one foot and managed not to follow you downwards.

however, he looked pissed. "who the fuck are you?" he held his hand out, and a pistol levitated from who knows where to snap into his grasp, then pointed at your face.

an ability user. you put your hands up in a sign of innocence, reaching to your government id and pass to explain to him that you worked here and were just looking to talk to fukuchi in regards to your project. he didn't seem convinced.

"look," you sighed, slowly getting yourself up and dusting off the dirt from your clothes, "I didn't mean to run into you, so why don't you just let me walk on over there and talk to the guy?"

he glared at you as you did, and the other three soldiers (you presumed they were, even though you couldn't explain the little girl) noticed your presence and gave you about the same reaction as the redhead did. you regretted coming here, and told yourself that you would just thank fukuchi and get the hell out of here.

you waved at him cautiously, and began to thank him for getting you your funding.

he didn't know who the hell you were.

you knew he was drunk, but it was a logical assumption that he would at least remember your face vaguely, or would've made those calls while sober. apparently this wasn't logical, and right now you were ready to evaporate into the atmosphere and never return.

your brows were furrowed in confusion, and you stammered your way out while trying not to provoke the other people watching you. "I'm so sorry for disturbing you... ahem... hey, how's it going... I'm just gonna walk 'round ya ahah... uh... sorry..."

you ran out nervously before the redhead could point his gun at you again.

"oh my god, it was awful," you blabbered to your colleagues, recounting the story in vivid detail while burying your face in your palms and bending your torso onto the table. you had a chalkboard up with your new data, and screens were displaying models and atomic structures, since you were three days after the disastrous demonstration and still couldn't figure out what went wrong. "he looked at me like he'd never seen me in his life."

"you sure you didn't just hallucinate the whole encounter?" someone snickered, and you threw your empty coffee cup at them.

"yeah, it happens to me all the time when I forget to sleep for a few days. trust me, it's a sign of greatness."

"oh, shut up," you chuckled, glad you were taking your mind off of things. you all collectively decided to pick up another project in the meantime to show that you were indeed real engineers and could actually do your jobs properly. it was some kind of rocket launching mechanism, and you couldn't do your part until the basic concepts were made so you were just lounging around with the rest of your team, making paper airplanes and throwing them around.

so, you were doing absolutely nothing when the same man from yesterday walked in through the door.

he was wearing a uniform, unlike previously when he was wearing some more breathable clothes for training. he wasn't sweaty and breathing heavily either; in fact, he seemed to clean up quite well. you barely registered his face last time given the circumstances, but it didn't take very long for your posture to fix up and for you to try and fluff your hair in a reflexive response to how nice he looked. the solider seemed to be evaluating the room, your coworkers and you, then cleared his throat.

"your id said you worked in the weapons manufacturing division," he stated as some kind of greeting. you shot looks to the people sitting next to you, who got the hint that this was the guy you were talking about from before. you smiled at him as to not seem like you were guilty of something.

"yeah, I'm [_____]," you restated, hesitating between getting up and offered him your hand or just staying where you were. the latter felt safer, and you just gave him a short introduction of your team and what you did. "once again, I didn't mean to barge in yesterday, it was a misunderstanding. sorry about that."

he shook his head, a little relieved once he confirmed that you weren't some kind of spy or something. you noticed that he was a little more mellowed out while in uniform, almost like he was just angry yesterday because of all the running he did. you stared a bit too long at his features and let him say something you barely registered, turning around to leave.

your body acted alone and you sprouted up to your feet to follow him. "wait, your clearance isn't going to work here, let me-"

the door unclicked on its own and he shot you a coy smirk before leaving.

your leg bounced nervously as you sat down at an empty desk in an office that wasn't yours. weeks had passed, and the admiral was starting to value your team a bit more now that you had a few concept designs that proved valuable. for some reason, though, he called only you to come and meet him face to face.

that was nearly 30 minutes ago.

you didn't care much for punctuality, but people like him typically did so why on earth were you waiting so long? you couldn't leave, not when you had no idea what the meeting was about. so, you waited patiently and tried your very best not to explode out of your skin.

finally, a knock at the door that was ajar behind you. your head whipped around, and it wasn't the man you were expecting.

"commander fukuchi," you stated, shocked. "I thought my meeting was with..."

he laughed heartily as he took a seat, throwing himself onto the chair so vigorously you thought it would snap in half. "oh, don't mind him. I was told that since I left such a strong recommendation for you, I should hand-deliver this message."

you addressed the first part before the second. "you were told, sir? so you really don't recall us drinking together in your office?"

he laughed again, and you smelled the faint sweetness of alcohol on his tongue. figures. "another thing you shouldn't worry about, [_____]. I'm sure I meant what I said," he added with a nonchalant wave of his hand in the air.

trying not to let your 'don't meet your heroes' moment show too much, you mimicked his laugh and asked the second part of your question. "you mentioned hand-delivering a message?"

the message was actually an assignment: his military division called the hunting dogs were having trouble with their transportation pods. you thought this meant they had a car or something that was totaled, but no, it was an actual transportation pod. he led you out of the room to bring you up to some hangar where you saw the metal contraptions.

he did a really bad job at explaining how they worked, but the concept felt pretty self explanatory when you inspected it. fukuchi told you that some higher-ups are on his back to stop destroying these every mission, and he admitted with a chuckle and rub of the back of his neck that he and his subordinates don't take very well to having it malfunction.

you told him that you would take a look at it, and he burped as an affirmation and strolled out rather happy.

the project lasted a few weeks.

it was a hinge and wiring problem, things anyone with half a brain could fix in less than a day, but something stupid happened on your first day walking into the hangar to take a look at it.

the man from before was there.

he didn't seem like he wanted to be here, but it was just him so you assumed he was here on some kind of assignment, just like you. you greeted him with the same smile at the previous time, and he didn't bother to return it. he explained that he was here to help you get this thing fixed.

"are you... an engineer?" you raised a brow, careful with your words given that you knew nothing about him except that he was part of the deadliest military division in the country.

his reaction was hard to decipher, a scoff accompanying it when he flicked his wrist upwards and the transportation pod floated up in the air. "no, that's why I'm here."

ferrokinesis. you'd be lying if you said the ease with which he controlled such a large mass wasn't impressive, but it wasn't your place to irritate him even more by talking. you nodded an apology then got back to assessing the device.

you asked him to flip it onto its side, and he did. after you asked, you paused, realizing you still didn't have a name to call him. tachihara, he told you. your lips curled up and you told him that it was nice to finally put a name to his face.

the next day, you tried to speak with him more as you took down measurements in order to create the model and reprint the defective parts. only, he didn't seem to want to talk to you about himself at all, and you hit a dead end.

you kept trying.

it was a mission within a mission, a side quest to this assignment if you will, but you were determined to get to know him. you considered every time you got him to mildly chuckle to be a huge victory, and every word he said was another point for you. you still spent every other day working with your team on the defective toxic gas device, but this project was hand-delivered to you by a man who didn't give you a deadline or a budget, so you considered it a freebie to do anything you want for as long as you wanted. you decided just to redesign the entre thing, and the bonus of spending time with tachihara made it even sweeter.

instead of flat out asking him on a date, you settled for hanging out in the huge hangar, just you and him for hours. he admitted once that it was a nice break from all the weirdos in the hunting dogs, and you just laughed and told him that you liked the little escape too. sometimes you got him to give you feedback about your designs since he would be using these pods, and other times you just tried to scooch your body as close as possible to him while he told you about his most interesting spy missions.

by the time you couldn't stretch out the project any further, you got him to bend the metal plaques into the final shapes you needed and decided that maybe you really should ask him out.

you didn't. you just dropped the final designs onto the desk of your boss and went home regretting your decision.

you and your team finally got your device to work.

it was something about the concentration, about how you failed to account for the room pressure and how it would vary with the consumption of one substance into another, and you felt triumphant when, this time, you left your protective suit on and watched certain blocks of metal stay intact while others melted into nothingness. you walked over to the ones that were dissolving to run your fingers through it, what was once solid turning into butter as you raked your fingers through it. you gave your coworkers, who were watching from behind the screen this time, a thumbs up which they barely caught from the way they were jumping up and down and hugging each other from glee. the government officials seemed impressed, and it was hard not to burst from the feeling of pride at your success.

they greeted you once you traversed from one side to the other, telling you just how much this will serve the country and save millions. honestly, you knew that they couldn't care less about saving millions, and so did you; you were just happy your product worked.

you were even happier when you saw tachihara watching the entire thing from the corner, smirking at you with his arms crossed over his chest.

almost floating over to him, you asked him about a thousand questions about why he was here, how he knew that you'd be here, what he thought of the demonstration and if he'd want to go out on a date with you.

you had a whole lot of wins that day, but the one that had you smiling into your pillow that night was a three letter word.

"sssh, shut up, we're gonna get caught!"

you giggled even as you sealed his mouth shut with the palm of your hand, bodies pressed up against each other as you hid inside a janitor's closet.

tachihara was showing you around the entire facility, since you kept asking him about how he had clearance to go anywhere and everywhere without needing a badge. the first date, you took him out, but ever since then he's been showing you spots around the facility that no one ever goes to, ranging from the inaccessible roof to a very sketchy basement spot in which he said privacy was needed before kissing you for hours on end.

this time, you were venturing around a spot where neither of you were allowed and you'd heard footsteps coming from around the corner. you pulled him with you into the closet and could barely contain all of your giggles. he whispered that you were doing this on purpose, and you just pressed a kiss to his forehead as a response.

"you know," you said softly while waiting for the footsteps to disappear, "I never asked how the pods went."

"oh, teruko and tecchou destroyed it anyways," he chuckled. "you were given an impossible task, we all knew it from the start."

"well, thanks for letting me know now," you giggled and your hands rested gently at his hips.

you never thought you'd fall in love for any of the heartless government pawns that worked in the building, but no one could build a weapon so powerful over your heart than him.
