Mira just got back from the bathroom, plopping down on the couch next to her boyfriend and tucking her legs underneath herself. “You can press play.” They both shared a nod of approval before resuming their romance movie.

The movie was calming down from its climax, prompting her to rest her head on Wonwoo’s shoulder. He takes in a sharp breath, causing Mira to retreat from him.

“Are you okay?” She frowned, keeping her distance.

He presses his fingers into his shoulder, shutting his eyes at the sensation. “Yeah, I’ve just been exerting some muscles I don’t usually use at the stunt academy.”

“Stunt academy?” Her eyes widen, her mind going directly to the worst-case scenario.

“Yeah, I learned some martial art moves for—”

“Martial arts?” She sits up straight, placing her hand on his knee.

“Hey, it’s fine.” He cups her cheek with his palm. “I have to film an action scene for our music video, so I learned from the professionals.”

Mira slouches back against the couch, letting out a sigh of relief. “You scared me.”

“I’m okay–” Both of their heads snap towards the screen when the female lead lets out a moan. Mira feels her cheeks heat up, pursing her lips.

“Uh, we filmed some test footage. Did you wanna see?” He tries to direct their attention elsewhere to downplay the manner of the movie scene.

“Oh, sure!” She perks up, watching as he takes his phone out of his pocket. She pays attention to the movie before he holds out his phone.

She smiles upon seeing him barefaced with his glasses on, and a beanie. “Awe.”

He chuckles nervously before pressing play on the video. She giggles at him taking a deep breath before they begin the sequence.

“You’re so–OH! Oh my gosh–“ She covers her mouth when people in the video start lunging for Wonwoo. She’s speechless while watching the rest of the video, her boyfriend throwing and dodging punches, even kicking the stunt people. When most of the guys are on the ground, her eyes widen as he stands in the video, panting. The footage ends with him fixing his beanie.

She looks at him, her mouth agape behind her palm. He gets flustered when looking into her eyes, throwing his head back on the sofa while snickering.

“Wow, that’s…” Mira shakes her head in disbelief. “Awesome. Can I see it again?”

“Of course.” He hands her his phone and she swipes to the beginning to watch it all over again. The first time, she focuses on the actors coming his way. Second, she watches Wonwoo’s face the entire time. Third, she watches his body movements. He is shy everytime she restarts the video, trying his hardest to focus on the movie and not her reactions.

She watches a fourth time, but scrolls through it frame by frame. Watching it in slow motion was not her brightest idea, because she takes every detail into account. She can’t deny that he looks incredibly sexy. He probably doesn’t even recognize what he’s doing, focusing on the routine he was taught at the academy. She sees his shirt lift up and she can’t help but rewind and scroll some more, wetting her lips at the sight of his abs. She’s at the end of the video, but she doesn’t remember anything from it because her mind is imagining him shirtless.

“Mira?” He knocks her out of her daydreaming.

Her cheeks heat up again, as well as her ears. She feels as if he completely read her mind and she was about to be caught. “Oh, yes?”

“Are you done? I mean you can watch as many times as you want but I’m getting embarrassed.” He smirks.

“Uhh, yes I am.” She hands his phone back to him, trying to get one more glimpse at him in the video. She watches him press the share button and sends it to her through texts. She really wishes he hadn’t done that. “It’s really good. I’m proud of you.”

He smiles, leaning over to give her a kiss on the cheek. She blushes and suddenly feels hot all over. He doesn’t pull away but instead stares at her lips. She watches his eyes drift, so she takes the opportunity to tilt her head and kiss his lips. He follows the way her lips move against him, cupping her cheek with his hand. Mira feels her phone ring in her pocket from the text he sent. She quickly pulls away, clearing her throat while brushing strands of her hair behind her ear.

She stumbles on her words, distancing herself from him. “I- do you want me to massage your shoulder?”

He snorts, leaning forward to give her more access. “Go crazy.”

She stretches her fingers before readjusting and pressing them into his shoulder. He shudders the second she applies pressure.

“Sorry,” She pouts, trying to be gentle with him.

“Don’t worry, you can’t hurt me.” He rubs her knee, turning his attention to the movie.

The hairs on her head stand up from that touch alone. She does her best to push away her lustful thoughts, watching the movie with him.

They get absorbed in the intimate scenes when Mira reaches one of his more sore muscles, causing him to suppress a moan. Regardless of his efforts, she still heard it loud and clear.

“Did I hurt you?” She takes her hands back, holding them to her chest.

“No, that felt good.”

“Oh, um…” She tries to reposition her hands back to where they were just a moment ago. She feels around his shoulder blades before he lets out another moan.

“Right there.” He sighs

She flattens her lips, willing her fingers to not start shaking now. “Like this?”

“Just like that.” He speaks low enough for her to hear. Her imagination starts to run wild as she continues to massage his shoulder. She envisions what it would be like to hear the same sounds coming from him but under different circumstances. Would he say the exact same words? She wants to hit herself for looking back on all the times he had been shirtless around her. Her pulse quickens at the thought of the steamy scene minutes ago and what it would be like for her and Wonwoo.

“Why’d you stop?” She snaps out of it again to see him looking at her. She doesn’t remember ever stopping.

“I…” Her fingers hover over his skin, looking down into his eyes. “Sorry, I don’t know–“ She trails off, entranced by his wet lips. They both feel the pull towards each other, leaning in until the front door flies open.

“I got ice cream!” Mingyu lifts the bags, pushing the door shut with his leg.

Mira throws her on the opposite side of the sofa like they were caught doing something they weren’t supposed to be doing. She hopes Mingyu didn’t notice anything except for the flush across her skin.

“Ice cream!” She stands to her feet, rushing over to grab a bag from Mingyu. “Do you want some ice cream, Wonwoo?”

“Uhh sure.” He stands, readjusting his sweats before stretching his back and limbs.

The three settle on the sofa, Wonwoo in between both of them. Mingyu has his own bowl of ice cream, while the couple share one. She’s hoping the ice cream can somehow melt away her uneasiness from their situation, but she finds herself more agitated sitting so close to her boyfriend.

“You didn’t eat much, do you want the rest?” He leans his temple against her shoulder, whispering into her ear.

“It’s okay, you can have it.” She whispers back, attempting a reassuring nod. She turns her attention to the movie, watching him out of the corner of her eye.

She can’t remember what’s all happened in their movie or even the title of it as she watches him finish the ice cream. Her first mistake was trusting herself enough to turn her head a little to see the cream on the corner of his lips. He wipes it away with his thumb before licking his finger clean. She feels her mouth go dry and a ringing in her ears.

She may have imagined him his eyes shifting to her, but it’s enough for her to shoot up and ask the two boys if they’re done with their ice cream.

“Can I take it?” She grabs both of the bowls from them, running away to the kitchen to collect herself and clean the dishes.

Her mind is running laps as she frantically rinses the dishes, drying them and placing them back in the cupboards. She dries her hands, taking her phone out of her pocket with shaky hands. She texts Sua to come and pick her up ASAP.

Before she can go back to watch the movie with them, she gives herself a pep talk while fixing her hair and clothing.

Wonwoo eyes her as she comes back in, splaying his arm out on the sofa to wrap around her. She forces a smile, bringing her knees to her chest.

He leans in, rubbing his hand back and forth on her shoulder. “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine, I just don’t feel too good so Sua is coming early.”

“We can go to my room and you can lay on the bed if you–“

Going to Wonwoo’s room and laying down on his bed.

“No. Really, I’m fine. It’s not a big deal.”

He scans her face, debating on whether he should feel her forehead for a fever. He nods, instead pressing a peck to her temple. It was very clear to him how tense and unnatural she was acting. He nods, not wanting to overwhelm her anymore.

After a while, her phone vibrates in her pocket, knowing that it’s Sua telling her she’s outside. The movie is almost over so she sticks it out, hoping her member won’t be too agitated with her for making her wait.

The second the screen fades to black, she stands up and smooths her pants down. “Thank you for having me over, I really enjoyed tonight.” She bows her head to Mingyu before heading to the front door.

“No problem…” Mingyu raises his eyebrow, watching as Wonwoo walks after her.

She struggles to get her shoes on, pushing her bag to her back.

“Mira,” He presses his palm against her back, causing her to flinch. “Is everything alright?”

“Everything’s fine, don’t worry.” She turns her head, pleading with her eyes for him to take a hint. She makes sure she has everything before pulling the door open.

“Let me walk you–“

“No! It’s fine, I’ll be okay.” She nods, giving him an unexpecting peck on the lips. “Love you. I’ll text you.”

She leaves him no room to argue, shutting the door and rushing to the elevators.

Wonwoo stands at the front door for a second before walking back to the living room. He’s thinking in his head when Mingyu brings him back to reality.

“Is it just me or was she acting really weird?” He points to the door, flattening his lips.

“You noticed?”

Mira quickly gets in the car and fastens her seatbelt. Sua looks her up and down, raising an eyebrow. “Is everything okay?”

“Yes, everything is fine.”

“Did something happen–“

“No, nothing happened. I’m just tired so can we please go home?” She presses her arm against the door, holding her head up. When the vehicle doesn’t start driving, she looks over to see the woman staring at her. “Now.”

“Yes ma’am. Sheesh.” She sits back, putting the car in reverse.

“I am despicable.” Mira mumbles under her breath.

April 29, 2024

She can’t help but bite her nails, hesitating on clicking the official music video. She was both anxious and excited to see the final product. She was also fearsome of what she would have to face once she finally watched Wonwoo’s fight scene. She thought it was shameful enough to be thirsting over him, but she didn’t want to come to terms with the fact that she craved to be intimate with him.

Mira pressed on the Maestro music video, listening to the song with her headphones on. She waited impatiently for his part, nearly squealing the second it did. Her jaw hung open, having to replay the scene over and over again.

She zoned out, feeling a warmth fill her center. He looked too sexy and she felt ashamed to be imagining such inappropriate things about him.

“Mira!” Yoohyeon reached back for Mira’s leg, shaking it from her seat.

The girl quickly took her headphones off her head, once again acting like she was caught watching something she was not supposed to. “Hmm?”

“Are you drooling?”

She was not expecting a twenty second video to bother her this much.

[wolvesofinnistrad]

Now on AO3 here (with slightly better editing)

Tommy spots him off to the side just after they start playing. He gives Evan a nod and gets one back, and he's confused. Because Eddie has told him he doesn't like basketball, and Evan kind of let it slip he only came last time because he wanted to see him.

Oh.

He loses the ball in his distraction, then tries to shake it off. "Get it together Kinard," he whispers to himself.

A few moments later he's got the ball again, perfect shot lined up, and he glances at Evan, almost showing off a little and the little fucker winks at him.

He misses the shot by a mile, his team is a little frustrated but all Tommy can hear is the beat of his own heart thudding in his ears.

This boy is gonna kill him.

He really thought it was just gonna be a little fling. Something fun and new and wild. If he's honest he hasn't even dated That many guys himself, and certainly no one like Evan. Not someone that blushes at every word he says, that treats each kiss like the last breath of air, that looks at him like he's so experienced and put together and...

Someone runs into him and he almost falls over. He hears Evan laugh, and its such a good laugh. He's so very very screwed.

Tommy manages to make it through the game, losing badly, but he finds that he really doesn't care that much today. Not when that blinding smile like sunshine is laser focused on him postgame. Not when he hears a stuttered "h-hey Tommy," from Buck that literally makes him wanna drag that boy into a kiss right here.

But Evan isn't ready for that he doesn't think. Fuck does he want it though.

"Hey Evan. What're you doing here?" He asks as he grabs his things, uses a towel to wipe the sweat off his brow and arms.

Evan is staring at him, following the towel and he tests an idea, running it down his legs, then rucking up his shirt and doing his abs. Evan honest to God licks his lips and exhales shakily and that makes Tommy nearly pop a boner right there.

He presses in closer, watches as much as hears the intake of breath from Evan. "I... i just wanted to see you..." Evan says and fuck he's blushing. The kid is honest to god blushing and his eyes are darting all over, to Tommy's face, his lips, his body.

"Well that's good. I've been wanting to see you too." His hand comes up of its own accord, about to grab him, but then he remembers where they are and just punches Evan's arm. Well, he was aiming for his arm but he hit his chest. And fuck if that wasn't solid muscle he just hit.

Evan actually moans a bit and slaps a hand over his own mouth, looking around to make sure no one else heard.

But Tommy heard.

"Wanna walk me to my car?" He asks, and Evan nods, following along. Once they get there he goes and opens the back door and tosses his bag in, but then he goes to the passenger aide and opens it.

"I, uh, I drove here," Evan says, uncertain.

Tommy looks at him, eyes trailing up and down his body. "I know. Get in."

Evan complies readily, scrambling into the seat in his haste and fuck if that doesnt make Tommy wanna ravage him right here. Not yet though.

Soon.

Once they're both inside the car the tension is palpable. He looks over, seeing that flush still high in Evan's cheeks. He places a hand on the man's thigh, his thick muscular thigh, and then moves in, swallowing down the gasp Evan lets out as he kisses him.

Its so good. Fuck its too good. At some point his other hand has come up to tangle in Evan's hair, he has curls, how did he not notice the curls before. Hes just about to try going for Evan's neck when he feels a soft pressure against his chest and immediately he shuts himself down, pulls away, panting.

He stares at Evan, trying to see if he pushed too far, he wasnt trying to he just got carried away. Hes about to say that when Evan simply goes "Fuck..."

That makes Tommy laugh. Evan is even redder than before and when he looks down well, the side of his hand is touching something that definitely wasn't there when he first put his hand on Evan's thigh.

Evan's eyes flick down and he groans. "Wow you, uh, you're," he trails off, but Tommy knows, he's tenting his basketball shorts. Its not embarassing at all though because he doesn't mind Evan knowing how much he does it for him even if they haven't gotten that far yet.

"Yeah, i am. Because of you. Is that okay?" He asks, making sure.

Evan laughs, a nervous but somehow giddy thing. "Its new. But yeah, yeah that's... I didn't even think about like, that being a thing yet."

"Theres a lot of new 'things' to get used to when dating a man Evan."

"Yeah im starting to see that."

He catches his eyes, lettting the moment linger. "And is it okay?"

Evan reaches over and kisses him again, this time softer, more like the first one. "Yeah, it is," he says as he presses their foreheads together. Then he's pulling away. "Now i need to go before i do something very embarassing and very public."

Tommy laughs and pulls him in to another kiss, whispering in his ear "if it wasn't for me wanting to make your first time special I'd have already been blowing you right here." Maybe its too much too soon, but he feels like he has to say it.

Evan stares at him for a moment and Tommy tenses, worried he just fucked that up. Then he laughs. "You have no idea how much I wanna take you up on that but... I have a history of fucking things up when I fall into bed too fast. So as much as its literally killing me," he looks at his own crotch, Tommy thinks he might see a twitch that actually makes his mouth dry, "is it okay if we go slow?"

Tommy nods, sitting back in his seat, no longer crowding the younger man. "We can go as slow as you like. I get it." He looks at Evan again and smiles. "I better go take a shower, I reek." Then, laughing as he adjusts himself a bit, "a very cold shower."

Evan looks uncertain, Tommy raises an eyebrow in question and then the man blurts out "i think you smell great." He blushes even more after that and Tommy smirks.

"Oh yeah? All sweaty and gross?"

Evan seems to pause, like hes struggling with whether to say this or not. "I..."

Tommy gives him a warm, welcoming smile. "Evan dont be embarassed you can say what you wanna say."

Evan looks at him and some of the uncertainty seems to clear. "I always kinda thought it smelled nice. Like sweat and just... that't weird I'm sorry." It almost looks like he might flee and Tommy grabs his hand.

"Hey look at me." Evan does. "First of all, that isn't actually uncommon. A lot of guys are into that." He pauses to let that sink in. "Me included."

Evan looks scandalized, but also a bit turned on. "Really?" He says, his voice a bit strangled.

Tommy just chuckles. "Yeah, really. I think you'll find what guys like with each other might be a little different than what you've thought you were, I'll say 'allowed' to like with women?" He says, not sure hoe to phrase it.

Evan smiles really broadly at that, still shy, but relieved too. He leans in for another kiss and Tommy sinks into it. If Evan inhales a bit deeper before he pulls away well Tommy isn't going to call him on it.

"I better go. I, uh, I'll call you later?" Evan says, his pupils are blown wide and fuck if Tommy doesnt need that shower stat.

"Yeah. I'll be waiting," he says and he doesn't even care if he sounds like a fucking teenager again because this boy has got a hold on him.

Evan takes two tries to open the door because he wont drag his eyes away from Tommy, which is adorable.

"Bye Tommy," Evan says as he gets out and lingers by the door.

"See you later kid," he says, watching Evan turn around and walk off. And if Tommy stares through his rearview mirror for way longer than normal no one has to know.

Late Teen! Damian Wayne x P.I. Reader pt 1

You were very average looking, Making a living as a assistant P.I. living in a low end, but fairly safe part of Gotham but being New to Gotham you should know nowhere is really safe, Especially at night! Which is how you became associated with the man you would eventually fall in love with, Robin aka: Damian Wayne. And from there Pandora's box opens.

Damian & Y/n age: 17-19 years old.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

'I'm too lazy to buy my own shopping do it for me! (yes went you grocery shopping for them.) or My child is hanging out with a bad crowd and doing drugs I know it, follow them! (Spoiler alert, the "Bad crowd" was a D&D guild, you never saw someone turn that red.) Normally you would've told those people to kick rocks, But... Money is money and since your boss's disappearance you needed every cent you could get just to keep a roof over your head.

You were two blocks away from home when you saw something green in your peripherals, you turned your head fully and saw it was boot sticking out from behind a dumpster, Curious you went to check if someone needed help, You nearly crapped yourself when you found Robin knocked out and bleeding over some trash bags! You fiddled around for your phone... Than You realized that sending a highly sought after vigilante to the hospital was bad idea. 

But, You couldn't just leave him out here! Going against your better judgement you carefully managed to pull Robin on to you back, nearly stumbling as he was fricking heavy, that suit of his was no joke! It'll probably shave twenty ponds off him if he wasn't wearing it! 

Cut to you getting Robing into the Gideon Wright detective agency without being seen and deposited the unconscious young adult on the couch before taking a few minutes to catch your breath. "Jeezus, I don't think I've lifted that much weight since boss made me take that physical strength test." Damn you were gonna be sore tomorrow! but maybe not as much as Robin... With a tired sigh you got to work finding the first-aid kit.

You managed to removed Robin's cape and chest armor and lifted his shirt to check his bleeding side, pausing briefly not admiring his abs (yes you were.) to stare at the scars littering his olive skin. *Damn, he must've through hell to get those...* you thought going back to his wound... It wasn't to bad. looks like his armor absorbed most of... well, whatever had cut him, You quickly cleaned the injured area up and bandaged Robin up.

Taking note of the large bruise on his back... Shaped like a metal bar. "He was getting away from someone and probably jumped on one of those rusty fire escapes on the old shoe factory... You deduced now thinking back, you do remember seeing chunks of an old scaffolding littered around the boy wonder when you found him... But were too focused on getting him to safety to care at the moment.

Well hopefully when he wakes up, Robin can help fill in the blanks on what he was doing before ending up on one of your couches, You yawned feeling exhausted and saw it was getting to midnight, you put blanket over Robin and quickly got changed into your Pjs and made up the futon couch opposite of the young vigilante, and passed out almost immediately your head hit the pillow.

At around five am Y/n was woken up by the feeling of someone glaring at her and hushed whispers her y/ec eyes opened tried to adjust to darkness, and was greeted by Red-Hood standing a mere inches from her face, Y/n did what any girl would do if a strange man was in her room, scream and punch him as hard as she could!

 Apparently Y/n had a good swing cos she managed to make Red-Hood's helmet spin as she was staring as the back of his helmet, while a pissed off Robin snapped. "Dammit Todd, I said leave her be!" Y/n looked over the anti-hero's shoulder to see an angry Robin readjusting his cape, while Red turned his helmet back to it's original position. "Aw c'mon Gremlin, I just wanna see who was crazy enough to save you." Red teased the younger male let out annoyed growl.

"She didn't save me!"

"Right... she just found you knocked out in an ally, and fixed you up for kicks."

"Tt"

"What's your name girly?"

You blinked still trying to process what was happening. "uh...Y/n?"  Red-hood hummed. "Well Y/n, since I know he won't say it, Thanks for  not calling the cops and looking after my brother." Your cheeks felt hot, it's been a while since someone's actually thanked you for something. "Yeah... Well, I Figured Robin would want to keep his unmasked dignity." You say with a tired smirk, however the good mood was brought down by Robin huffing at Red-hood to get a move on, They've already overstayed their welcome! and while muttering.

"aimra'at muzeija (Annoying woman.)" which you answered back with. "nafs alshay' lak ya fataa altuyuri! (Same to you bird boy!)" Robin looked thrown off guard while Red-hood burst out laughing as he climbed out the office window, with one final "Tt" Robin followed after him. "Well so much for answers..." You mumbled plopping back down on your pillow, and the hope of having help with finding what happened your boss.

A few days later.... 

You were investigating a missing persons case a young lady named Maria Thompson asked you to find her father, however from the beginning you had guts that something was completely off about this situation, But a job a job and it paid two thousand bucks, that'll give you this months rent and put actual food in the fridge, all you had left was expired take-out and pickles...

 You tracked Mr. Thompson down to a upscale café you walked in and looked around he hadn't arrived yet, but you had ten minutes before his lunch break and decided to wait you took a seat, not noticing Bruce Wayne's sons sitting a few tables down...

Jason recognized you the second you walked passed the window. "Check it Gremlin, it's your girlfriend." he teased pointing at you as Damian ears went red. "How many times do I hav-" He got cut off by Dick suddenly standing up. "Oh!~ Where?" he looked around Jason pointed at the y/hc girl in the parka and shorts sitting at the counter drinking coffee and watching tv. "Let's say hi to her!" Damian snapped at Dick not to! and to sit back down. "I'm just curious, It'll be fine." The youngest boy tried to stop his brothers but ended up getting dragged by them to greet you.

Dick and Jason sat on either side of you, you hadn't noticed as you were very deep thought. *What am I missing?...* you were brought out by someone clearing their throat, You looked up from your coffee and were greeted by two handsome...Scratch that three handsome guys, you noticed the third one pouting behind the one wearing blue. "Yes?" you asked confused what did they want with you? "Hi there Dick Grayson, My brothers and I noticed you sitting here and thought you needed some company."

You looked up the guy brow arched, did this guy realized how creepy that sounded? Luckily his brother saw this did some damage control. "He means the little pouting one there, thinks yer cute and wants to talk to ya." Y/n watched the pouter's face go red and contort into anger, But at that moment Mr. Thompson came into the café. You stood up and took out a photo on your phone.. just make sure it was him, it was! You got up from your seat looked back at Dick and his brothers.

 "Look you guys seem nice and all, but I'm kind of busy."

"Busy, with what?"

"I'm a P.I., I can't say much about it, but I'm on a case right now."

"A P.I.?... While I happen to be cop maybe I can help, what's the case?"

You looked like you wanted to answer, but you didn't want Thompson slipping away. "A missing persons case." was all you said before heading over to Thompson's table the older man immediately mistook you for a waitress. "I'll have coffee." he mumbled not taking his eyes off the menu. 

"Sorry Mr. Thompson but I'm not a waitress..." He looked up at you bemused. "Oh, I'm sorry is something wrong miss...?" You introduced yourself and explained you were detective working a missing persons case reported in his neighborhood. "A missing person? I haven't heard anything" Thompson paused seeing someone coming up behind you.

"Oh here's my daughter, maybe she might know?" You turned to seeing a blond teenage girl in a pink hoodie jeans walking up to the table, That was definitely not Maria! Maria was older, brunette and dressed very modestly... not to mention Maria is pregnant. 

You tried not to smirk as you realized your gut was right about this case being odd... "Selma dear, this is Y/n she's detective. " Selma looked up from her phone looked at you curiously. "She says there's been a report of a missing person in the neighborhood?" You watched the blonde's brow scrunch up in confusion. "I haven't heard anything about a missing person."

You took a moment to think looking between the father and daughter. "I see...By the way Mr. Thompson do you have any other children." Thompson looked at you oddly he only had one daughter. "Right that's all I wanted to know." You got up to leave but paused remembered a detail. "By the way Mr. Thompson, you might want to contact Ryan-Tech Industries I think your employee account was hacked." Mr. Thompson looked even more lost. "Ryan-tec-" Selma suddenly slammed her hands on the table causing you and her father to look at her stunned.

"Get out..." she hissed at you while her father looked taken aback. "Excuse me?" you said flabbergasted by her sudden shift in personality the teenager started getting more agitated. "I said leave, we have nothing to say to you." she growled Mr. Thompson found his voice as his daughter was trying to pull him up. "Selma what's gotten into-" Selma managed drag her dad away.

"Let's go eat somewhere else daddy!" and like that they were gone and you were left with more questions than answers. "And so plot thickens..." before looking down at you watch, it was time to go meet Maria and give her an update. "Gentlemen." you nodded Dick at and his brothers and left the café, heading back to your office, the last thing you were expecting when you got home was Robin sitting at your desk looking over a case file.

"Well, this is certainly unexpected..."

"Tt, your setup is amateurish at best, but your deductions skills are well above average I'll give you that."

"So did you drop in to do an impromptu Yelp review or...?"

"Ryan-Tech, I heard you've been investigating their background." 

You cocked a brow curious how wonder boy found out about that, but then remembered he was Batman's sidekick sleuthing was in his blood. "I have, what of it?"  You wondered if he was hear to tell you to back off, but to your surprise he pulled out a flash-drive, it had some info about Ryan-Tech that he wasn't able to crack. "Did you come cos you need help?" You saw the tips of Robin's ears turn red. "Tt, Don't think much into it alright!" he huffed as he loaded the drive onto your computer however while the files were loading, you got out everything your boss had on Ryan-Teach.

Maria had returned to the office she hesitantly entered when she noticed Robin at your computer. "Don't mind him, Let's talk about you." You gestured to the couch across from you. "So I've solved your missing persons case, Mr. Thompson was found safe." Maria looked elated to hear this. "He's living with his actual daughter." You watched Maria shift uncomfortably in her seat. "Which brings on the question, Why lie to me about your real identity...Miss Ryan?"

Robin stopped looking through your bosses old files and looked at the young lady sitting across from you, who looked like a deer in the headlights; shocked that you figured out her identity so quickly... "I get a lot of questionable things have happened at the company since your father suic-"Maria suddenly stood up. "He didn't kill himself!" she snapped causing you to backtrack a bit. "Sorry that was thoughtless of me." Maria calmed down a bit; handed you a check before leaving.

"Miss Ryan?" She paused before opening. "Should you ever require my services again? Know my door is open for you." the brunette nodded and quietly leaving. "You're pretty sure she'll come back?" Robin said watching the heiress get into a limo. "Maria wants to find out the truth behind her father's death, trust me she'll be back." You were pretty confident as you set up the track board.

First thing you stuck to the board was Maxwell Ryan's death 6 six years ago... Robin added Simona Castillo being sworn in as CEO a few weeks following the incident; Followed by a downward spiral of questionable work conditions and rumors of unsafe work conditions and employees bein laid off or resigned 'abroad' were reported. 

Thing is, when Y/n's boss interviewed concerned co-workers of the reassigned employees, they couldn't get a hold of them, it was like they just vanished out of existence. Those who were interviewed started getting into accidents, some deadly, some causing serious injury, no surprise these people stopped talking afterwards... You looked disheartened which confused Robin as he watched you pull down the blinds to reveal another board.

The Gideon Wright disappearance Aka: Case file 1304: Oh Boss where art thou?, To sum it up, two months ago your boss got a supposed lead and from a mysterious whistle blower, he went to rendezvous. His last order to you was "Take care of the shop while I'm out. I'll be back, I promise...." three days later Gideon still hadn't returned, You went looking for him at his last known location, The only things you found was his scorched hat and signs of an explosion...

Aside from that, there was no trace of Gideon anywhere! So instead of sitting and moping about it, you sucked it up and got to work! Taking minor cases to keep up rent, while keeping your eyes and ears open around Gotham, taking special attention to any whispers involving strange disappearance surrounding Ryan-Tech, Robin hummed absorbing your whole situation, well that explained why you were so focused on Ryan-Tech, up until now they've been doing pretty well staying out of the limelight...However.

There have been a lot hiccups and rumors surround Ryan-Tech recently, especially since Maria Ryan announced that she intends to take over as CEO in a few months after she's giving birth to her child, well that obliviously put a target on her back, so now this race against time... And Y/n was left wondering, just what was her boss's role in all of it?

[yostresswritinggirl]

in a midst of a commission, the child and a npc got caught in a surprise attack by abyss mages, and they're now missing! Oh no ... they're now cornered by the Fatui!

Kid: Uh... You... you have... no abs!

Fatui agent: ...what's with this lost sassy child? are you a fool? this is no playground.

Kid: Hey! I'll have you know I scored 100 on math five times in a row—

* proceeded to be taken to the palace for interrogation due to relationship with traveler *

Childe: Oh goodness! What are you doing here? I'll bring you back home.

Kid: Why do you, out of all of your colleagues, seem the most sane? Should I be concerned for my safety?!

Childe: Well... I can't say you're wrong.

Harbingers:

Kid: *visible sweat* i am very uncomfortable.

—🗿

Oh gosh haha you know at one point, the Harbingers will find some reason to be fond of the child too-

ACTUALLY it would be even funnier if they do have intel of child reader from the beginning and everytime they show up in the order that they do in the actual game

And they always end up seeing the child, not harming them tho, actually they don't mind showing how curious or fond they are of the child. Signora deliberately not harming them when they met in Mond, even giving them a pat on the head as she struts out with the gnosis.

Childe projecting his siblings to the child, giving them an allowance of a million mora and doing whatever they ask. Even if the child ends up hating Childe due to the game, he's still barfing up money and toys for them. Oh, they wanna beat him up? He'll gladly stand still and test his own limits!

Then there's Scara swinging his hands while walking together during the meteor event when he's still pretending to be good.

Dottore taunting them and trying to get info out of their knowledge while letting them punch his long legs without any real harm. At some point he'll make Babysitter Dottore equipped with the knowledge to take care of them, minus the derangedness.

I can't do the other Harbingers since I got no clue how they are, nor did they make any appearances in game yet
