Characters Awakening Lines Translations

After posting the lines for Jin and Rui, I felt like translating other characters too so here we are!

Please note that since I don’t have access to all of the characters’ lines, most of the raw lines are taken from the unofficial JP wiki. The texts are all there so if any of you notice any errors/mistranslations, feel free to correct me!

FROSTHEIM

Jin

Awakening: To think I'm receiving alms from my servant... Should I kneel in front of you? Fully Awakened: Trust is something that can be broken easily. Don't you dare come any closer than you already have.

Tohma

Awakening: This feeling… It appears that you want me to keep reaching out for the top. Is that how it is? Fully Awakened: With this power, we're one step closer to achieving our goal. And I'm* going to make sure we see it through the end. [*he's referring to himself as “ore” instead of his usual “”watashi” here]

Luca

Awakening: I devote myself to protecting the weak, for that is the path I have to take. Fully Awakened: I'll become stronger than anyone. I don't want to lose anything important to me一not anymore!

Kaito

Awakening: Could it be… even someone like me can get stronger too? Fully Awakened: You have done so much for me! This man, Kaito, will no longer run away!!

VAGASTORM

Alan

Awakening: This power is dangerous. Stay away from me. Fully Awakened: I don't really know what’s appropriate to say for this kind of thing, so… well… umm, thanks a lot.

Leo

Awakening: C'mere, Honor Roll~ I'll show you those guys’ ugly crying faces too~ Fully Awakened: Obviously. If I don't like someone, I’ll take matters into my own hands and create hell on earth just for them. There's no such thing as divine retribution, you know?

Sho

Awakening: Thanks for waiting. Well? What do you want me to do now? Say it clearly. Fully Awakened: Sure, okay. I got it. If it's your request, I'll make sure to at least listen to it through the end.

JABBERWOCK

Haru

Awakening: That sure hits the spot~ Now I don't even need those energy drinks! Fully Awakened: I'm going as far as this road is going to take me. I made a choice to walk down this path and it's not something I can just simply throw away.

SINOSTRA

Taiga

Awakening: Gyahahahaha! Aren't you one greedy little kitten~? But I don't hate that about you. Fully Awakened: A hasty greed and a sincere wish. There's no big difference between the two of them.

Romeo

Awakening: Come now. Is it really the time to be charmed by my beauty? Fully Awakened: I need to be perfect all the time一for that is my way of staying triumphant on this world.

Ritsu

Awakening: This will help in furthering my career. Fully Awakened: I definitely will become the best attorney in Japan, and then I shall ensure my father's name will be clear from all the alleged infamy he's received.

HOTARUBI

Subaru

Awakening: I’m so happy that you're right here beside me to watch me grow. Fully Awakened: “Ignorance is Bliss" and “Silence is Golden”. Don't you agree that it's unreasonable to try and break the admonitions we inherited from our predecessors?

Haku

Awakening: Oi oi oi. Don't expect too much from me, you hear? Fully Awakened: If our life were decided by the things we were born with, you bet I'd be the first one to kiss that kind of life goodbye.

Zenji

Awakening: It seems that my capability has bloomed yet again! Fully Awakened: I was wrong, my dear. As it turns out, dreams are not to be kept as just an idealized fantasy but something we should achieve with our own hands.

OBSCUARY

Jiro

Awakening: Thank you very much. I feel slightly better. Fully Awakened: I won't let you die. The reason I'm helping you? I don't really understand it myself either.

Exotic Trouble

“Rin, Ran! Goddamnit, what is this?!” Y/n exclaims after closing the front door of the mansion behind her. Glaring at the culprits as she waves her hands around the mess that lies everywhere, including the scratched furniture and fallen frames, glass shards all over the wood.

The oldest brother could be seen sleeping on the torn couch, his furry ears flipping down as his slumber is disturbed, turning his body to face the back of the couch as his tail drapes over the seat. The youngest simply sat on the floor beside his brother’s tail, leaning back against the bottom of the couch as he licked his hand, claws out.

“Explain yourselves, right now!” She stomps one foot as she places her hands on her hips. She throws her hands out as they slap against her thigh, dropping as she frustratingly sighs when she’s ignored.

“You’re getting paid for this, you’re getting paid for this, you’re getting paid for this.” She murmurs to herself as she walks past the mess, walking up the staircase in search of the others she’s been paid to pet sit.

“Mikey! Kazu! Haru!” She calls out. The door down the hall creaking open as the tiger hybrid walks out, strolling towards her.

“I don’t know about Sanzu, but Mik-.”

“Master!” A cheerful cry reaches her ears. A short, blonde lion hybrid dashes toward her as she holds her arms out, already knowing what he was about to do. He jumps on her, arms wrapping around her neck as she holds him up. He buries his face into the crook of her neck, causing her to lightly shiver as his warm breath reaches her skin.

“Mikey, you know I’m not your master. Where’s Sanzu?”

“I don’t know.” He whispers as he drifts off to sleep. She sighs as she eyes Kazutora.

“Y/n, can we lay down? I want to watch a movie.” Kazutora yawns as his fangs show, rubbing his eyes. She smiles slightly at the cuteness before her frown returns.

“It would have to be later, before I go home. Kazu, do you know who trashed the foyer downstairs?”

She has an idea that it’s the Haitani brothers doing, but she had to make sure so she could explain why the owner’s furniture is torn apart.

“No.” He shakes his head. “Can you spend the night, again?” He questions as he gives her a doe - eyed expression.

“Kazutora, I know you’re lying to me.” He flinches as her tone changes. He crosses his arms as he looks away.

“Fine, I won’t make you snitch. Perfect timing to have company over, great.” She sighs. His eyebrows furrow.

“Company?” She ignores his question as she walks from room to room.

“Damn, Haru hides too well.” She murmurs as she searches. A ring at the doorbell halts their movement. Kazutora sniffs the air.

“Here, take him for me please?” She hands him Mikey before he could respond, rushing down the stairs.

Before she could make it to the door, she gasps as she sees both brothers at the doorway, interrogating her boyfriend.

“Who are you?” Rin glares at the newcomer while Ran sniffs in suspicion, his hands in his pockets while Rin’s arms cross.

“Uh, Hi. I’m Tanaka, Akio.” He bows as he sheepishly smiles, nerves a little wrecked as he wasn’t expecting to be greeted by exotic hybrids. He underestimated the words ‘pet sitting,’ thinking of them being regular pet hybrids and not exotic which are known to be bigger and intimidating creatures.

The door slams closed as Ran became bored of the conversation, if it could be called that. Tanaka scratches the back of his head before the door opens swiftly.

“I’m so sorry about that Aki, they’re just grumpy.” She says, moving out of the way to invite him in. “Hence the mess that I recently came home to.” She chuckles. The hybrids frown at her use of a nickname.

“Don’t worry about it, babe.” She grabs his wrist to pull him as she shows him around.

“By the way, that was the Haitanis. The tiger carrying the lion is Hanemiya and the lion is Mikey. The jaguar is hidden somewhere, but his name is Sanzu.” She explains.

“How is it taking care of exotic hybrids? I heard it can be troubling.” He inquires, readjusting his glasses as they walk down the hall to the kitchen.

“It’s not too hard. Some of them are troublemakers, though. I’d say that’s the only ‘issue’ that I've had.”

“Who is that?” Mikey asks, crawling out of Kazutora’s hold as he raises a brow. They walk behind the two humans, along with the Haitani brothers.

“I don’t know, but I don’t like him.” Kazutora responds.

“He looks weak.” Ran chuckles, “What is she doing with him?”

“He better be a friend. It’d be humiliating for him to be anything else.” Rin says.

“He’s obviously her partner.” A soft voice says behind them. They stop in their tracks as they turn their heads.

“Sanzu, where have you been?” Kazutora asks.

“If you look at their body language, you can see that they’re in a romantic relationship. Especially with how she looks at him.” He frowns, crossing his arms.

They all turn to observe the couple, to their disappointment they glare at the way they hold hands and laugh together. Some of them let out small growls as they see the man rubbing her arm as they converse.

“We should watch a movie. Need an excuse to cuddle.” He suggests, chuckling along with her giggle.

“Yeah, let's do it.”

They headed up the stairs having grabbed a few snacks as they made their way to the bedroom. The hybrids watch as they close the door behind them, shutting off access to their view. They all glance at each other before nodding.

After thirty minutes of watching the movie, the couple began their make out session on the bed, her leg draped over him, her body nearest to the door. His arm draped over her waist. As they motion their lips together, he slightly opens his eyes, only widening them when he sees two pairs of glowing purple eyes in the doorway. In response, he wraps both arms around her waist and pulls her on top so he can ignore the presence standing by.

He closes his eyes as he continues, his hands making their way to her ass, giving her a gentle squeeze before moving them back to her waist. When he opens his eyes, he jumps as if he wasn't expecting a pair of icy blue eyes or even the dark voids to be staring directly from his side, stoic facial expressions that give him the chill.

“Hey, are you okay?” She questions, not realizing the reason for his halted movements.

“Um.” He points at their audience.

“Mikey, Haru! What the fuck are y’all doing?” She exclaims.

“We wanted to watch the movie, too.” Mikey pouts.

“Fine. Let’s all move to the den.” She says, moving from her position as her bottom hits the mattress.

“No, I want to be comfortable.” Mikey whines as he hops on top of her, burying his face into her chest.

“Mikey, we can’t all fit on the bed. Let’s go.” She says as she carries him downstairs, her boyfriend and the other hybrids following behind.

Tanaka can feel the hatred radiating from the group, not only by the glares coming from every which way, including Mikey who’s staring at him from the crook of her shoulder, but also by the Haitani brothers bumping into him as they walk side by side. The tension in the room is thick, intimidating him.

When they all make it to the den, her boyfriend sits on the end of the sofa as she sits next to him, Mikey sitting on top of her with his face still buried on the crook of her neck. Sanzu sits on the floor, leaning his head against her leg farthest from the boyfriend as Kazutora sits near her other leg that’s nearest to Tanaka. Rin sits beside her, wrapping an arm around hers. Ran stands in front of the boyfriend.

“Move.” He demands, nonchalantly, eyes heavy lidded with a stoic expression, his tail swaying. Although there was no tension in his face, those lazy eyes pierce through Tanaka, causing him to immediately get up.

“Wait, Ran that wasn’t fair! Aki-.”

“No, Y/n. It’s okay.” Tanaka responds. She continues to eye him as Ran sits down, using his tail to wrap around her waist as he leans his body onto hers.

“Are you sure? Ran come on don’t be mean.”

“It’s okay, baby.” Tanaka says, sitting next to Rin, although not too close.

“Alright.” She sighs, turning the tv on and another movie on display.

Thirty minutes passed once more as Mikey’s head rested on her shoulder closest to Rin.

“Master, can you rub my back?” He whispers, hot breath on her ear. She nods as she uses the hand closest to Ran to begin petting his back. Tanaka side glances. His eyes widen when he sees a wet tongue come out and glide up her neck.

“Mikey, I know you’re affectionate, but not right now, okay?” She whispers, knowing that he licks in content often like a normal hybrid pet, though she doesn’t want to freak her boyfriend out considering he has barely any knowledge of these creatures.

“But the movie is scary and this relaxes me.” He whines. Tanaka hears everything as he grits his teeth. Rin and Ran snort as they know what Mikey’s doing and they’re not against it.

“Fine.” She sighs. “Just try to chill out okay. It’s not real.” She rubs his back.

He continues to give her little kitten licks, to Tanaka’s disappointment, though he didn’t dare say a word. Finally, he and Mikey make eye contact, the lion hybrid staring intently as he uses his tongue to give a long lick before sucking the sensitive skin. His ears pull back as he gives another long lick, kissing her neck before nibbling.

“Mikey, stop that.” Y/n whispers, shivers going down her spine at the newfound sensation he gives her. He begins to purr as he continues his suckling, ignoring her as he continues to stare Tanaka down. He smiles when he stands up.

“Hey, babe. I’m gonna go, okay?”

“What? The movie isn’t even over.” She says, unknown to his real motives of leaving.

“It’s fine, I have work in the morning anyway and this was a distant drive.” He says as he walks near the exit of the den.

“Okay, let me at least walk you out!” She says as she begins to try and move Mikey, though she’s plastered in her seat by all of the hybrids holding her.

“It’s fine. It was good to see you. Text me.” He waves goodbye.

When he disappears from the room, Sanzu and the Haitani brothers hop from their seats.

“Where are y’all going?” She questions.

“To lock the door and get food.” Ran answers.

She nods as they disappear, Mikey’s tail wrapping around her waist as a sleeping Kazutora subconsciously rubs his face against her leg. Mikey’s grip tightens as he continues assaulting her neck.

“You must be overstimulated. Do I need to grab one of your toys?” She asks as his fangs lightly pierce her neck when he nibbles. He shakes his head no and continues his licks and kisses.

As Tanaka walks to his car, he fails to notice the figure before it jumps on him from behind. His glasses fall, shattering as he looks into crazed blue eyes. Before he could react, large claws scrape against his chest as he screams. Ran shoves a cloth into his mouth before moving to his arm, tearing it clean off using his mouth and claws. Rin grabs his leg, using his strength to break it, slicing the skin with his claws as he pulls it completely off. Screams muffled as Sanzu wraps his mouth around his neck, using his sharp teeth to take a chunk out of his body, killing him as the blood splatters out.

They continue to slaughter his body for fun before contacting the butlers and maids to clean the mess before their pet sitter could see.

“Guys?! What’s all this blood from?!” She exclaims when they enter the den. Kazutora wakes up as her yelling brings him from slumber. Mikey eyes the other hybrids in content.

“Food.” Rin simply responds.

She sighs, feeling sorry for the poor animals they fed from.

“Let’s get you guys bathed and ready for bed.”

As they walk to one of the bathrooms, the men converse in their own language, knowing she can’t understand anything that they’re saying. After all, she only just moved to the country, this being her first and only job considering the pay.

“How’d he taste?” Kazutora questions, smirking as they walk.

“I would never eat disgusting scum. We tore him apart and the employees completed the rest.” Sanzu states.

“Good.” Mikey smiles.

“It was too easy. I wanted a challenge but he just laid there.” Rin pouts.

“What else would you expect from a weakling, brother?” Ran smiles.

“Alright, let’s run this bath.”

She turns on the huge tub, adding soap as the hybrids undress. She turns away to block her sight from their human genitals as they hop in.

“Can you bathe us, master?” Kazutora teases.

“Stop calling me that. You can bathe yourselves, I’m just here to clean the mess.” She responds, crossing her arms.

“Please?” Mikey pleads, giving the signature doe eyed expression.

“What kind of pet sitter are you?” Rin taunts.

“Fine, fine, but you’ll have to wash your own balls.” She states.

“First, I’m gonna drain this bloody ass water and remake the bath.”

She does just that. As soon as the tub is full, she grabs the shampoo.

“Alright, who’s first?”

After everyone is done, they head to their designated bedrooms. Her walking each of them to make sure everything is okay. Finally, putting Sanzu to bed last, she tells him goodbye.

“Are you staying over?” He asks. She nods her head.

“Yeah, it’s gotten too late to drive home. Sweet dreams.” She says before walking out and closing the door behind her.

When she makes it to her room, she gets ready for her own shower. When she’s done she completes her night routine and hops in bed. Her brows furrowed in confusion when she didn't receive any routine responses from Tanaka. Suddenly, her phone rings. She answers the call.

As she talks with her friend, she reveals that their owner will be back either late that evening or tomorrow morning, indicating that this is her last night at the mansion, unknown to the prowling ears listening to her conversation. Once their call ends, she puts her phone down, falling into a deep slumber.

The moonlight shines through the room as the bouncing of the bed wakes her up. Sweat falls down her body as she feels cold air hitting all over her heated bare skin. Heavy breathing could be heard as moans and whispers filled the air.

As she comes back to her senses, she realizes the sensations brought to her skin, including her body rocking up and down. Opening her eyes wide when her thoughts click, she eyes in horror, a strangled gasp leaving her mouth as she sees Rin naked above her form. His hand is wrapped around a chain that connects to a collar around her throat. His other hand balances himself above her as the skin’s smacking sounds echo.

His forehead is leaning on hers as he thrusts hard, pulling his hips back and slamming it against her propped up thighs. His lips are slightly parted as his eyes are closed, breathing heavily as she feels his warm breath hitting her face. His ears flipped back as his tail wrapped around her leg.

“R-rin! Stop, right now!” She exclaims, breathlessly as her nose scrunches from the intense beating. He ignored her, continuing as he released a moan. Her hands reach up to push against his chest, his hand blocking one of them as he uses the balancing hand to hold her wrist down, claws scratching against the sheets.

“No. It’s my turn.” He breathes, sitting up as he faces her, smirking before accelerating his thrusts.

“Your t-turn?” She questions, still attempting to push him off with one hand on his chest. He nods as he motions his head to the side.

On the bed, the other hybrids, naked, are kneeled some palming their own erections while the others pump themselves, watching the display. She wails in humiliation.

“You have to stop! Th-this is not okay!”

Ran crawls toward her as he leans over to steal a kiss, shoving his tongue in her mouth as he grabs her cheek, caressing with his thumb. Sanzu comes to the other side of the bed, bending over as he latches his lips onto her neck. Mikey and Kazutora, on opposite sides, latch to her nipples, playing with them using their fingers as well as sucking.

Rin leans over as he thrusts into her from a deeper angle, causing a grunt to come out of her as he repeatedly hits her g-spot. Her toes curl as her head falls back. She pleads for them to not continue this madness, half way hoping she was still dreaming.

“My my, what a welcome home.” A familiar, sultry voice says. Y/n turns her attention to the doorway as the men continue their assault, not shifting their attention at all.

“P-please! Ah! I didn’t-! Fuck! Mean for thi-!” She tries to explain, tears falling as her eyes squint.

“Yes, I know. My boys have taken quite a liking to you so you’ll be staying here for now on. Isn’t that great?” The owner walks in as she strolls to the side of the bed, closest to Y/n’s upper body.

“B-but I can-! I can’t stay…! Ah! Here.” She responds before Ran grabs her chin and forces another kiss, tired of their conversation.

“Oh, but you can. You will. Everything has already been set in motion and you know how I spoil them. They’re good boys after all.” She walks towards the door before turning on her heel.

“Also, you won’t be hearing from, what’s his name? Tanaka, right? Don’t worry about it, everything has been taken care of. Even the damaged furniture.” She smiles before walking out and closing the door. She pulls back from Ran.

“G-guys! What h-happen-?!” Ran bites her lips as Sanzu nips painfully at her neck. Rin pulls her chain roughly, causing pain in her neck as the two fondling her breasts pinch her nubs. She shuts her eyes in pain as blood is drawn from her lip and neck.

They continue, Rin thrusting sloppier as he reaches his climax, her head dropping back as her eyes roll in the back of her head. Her body convulses as her hips buck, creaming on his bare cock. With one deep thrust, he orgasms deep inside of her.

Rin moves off of her as everyone pulls back. She lies weakly as she catches her breath, attempting to face her new reality.

“That must’ve felt great. My turn!”

“You already went, Mikey.” Kazutora responds. “It’s my turn.”

“No, I’m going next.” Sanzu says.

“Doesn’t matter who goes next. She’s going to be bred full of our cubs.” Rin hisses.

Ran ignores all of them as he crawls above her, placing his head at her entrance before shoving himself all the way in. He lifts both of her legs and leans over her with his hands wrapped around them. One of his hands moves to the chain and pulls. He smiles with amusement.

“You look so pretty all worn out, Master. I’m glad we’ll get to have you like this all the time.” His thrusts harden, steady as he hits her cervix.

“Fine, but I’m after him.” Sanzu calls dibs.

“Hey!” Kazutora hisses.

Juice oozes out of her hole as his thick girth stretches her pussy. Once again, her nipples caught in fingers as well as her neck planted with kisses. Her lips caught as she’s once again, bredded. Ran slows down as his skin slaps against hers as they make eye contact. A red hue takes over his face as his fangs tingle.

“I’m ready to mark her.”

“No! We have to wait until we all get a turn.” Kazutora says, only because he wants to mark her while he’s inside.

“Why? Let’s claim her now.” Rin says.

“You only say that because you’ve already fucked her.” Sanzu growls.

She eyes them in confusion as she tries to decipher what they’re going back and forth about. Mikey rolls his eyes as he bites her side, causing her to flinch at the pinch.

“Damnit, Mikey!” Kazutora exclaims before grabbing her arm and biting her wrist. Rin bites her neck as Sanzu bites her other side. As she orgasms, Ran leans over to bite the other side of her neck.

She yelps as Ran accelerates drastically, thrusting his hips back and forth as the meat on her thighs jiggle. Her mouth drops open as she tilts her head back once more, her core overstimulated as she arches her back.

“That’s so hot.” Kazutora states as he drops her wrists, some of the others nodding as they watch.

Eventually, he releases deep inside of her with one hard thrust, the pressure pushing against her g-spot as it’s held there causing her to cum again.

She attempts to catch her breath before Ran moves and Sanzu climbs on her.

“Haru, please don’t.” She whispers, completely spent as she holds no more strength. He smiles warmly as he grabs her palm and places it on his cheek.

“Be good for us, okay Master?”

Babysitting

San x Reader

Summary: San helps you babysit for the day, and let's a little secret slip.

Word count: 600+

Warnings: mentions of having kids, not proofread

A/N: Thanks to the lovely anon who requested this! I'm not the best at writing about kids, so I'm sorry if this isn't quite what you wanted.💙

Masterlist

Requests are open

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

When San came to pick you up for your lunch date, he thought it was slightly odd when you didn't answer the door right away, usually you tackled him in a hug before the bell had even finished ringing.

He considered ringing again, only to stop short when you opened the door, met by the surprising sight of you holding a baby who couldn’t be more than six months old.

“Did I miss something?” He asked, confused.

“No, this is Haru.” You explained. “My friend's babysitter canceled at the last minute, so I offered to look after her for the afternoon.” You adjusted your hold on the squirming infant. “I’m sorry, I should’ve called you earlier to reschedule, but it all happened so suddenly.”

“It's okay, we don’t have to reschedule.” He assured you, leaning down to stroke one of Haru’s chubby cheeks, instantly charmed. “Do you want some help?”

"Really?"

"Yeah, I like kids." He shrugged, cooing at Haru and making her giggle.

“Then yes, please.” You said, letting him in.

The rest of the afternoon passed in a blur of feedings, nappy changes and trying your best to keep Haru content and happy, which turned out to be more of a challenge than you had expected.

You had been trying to put her down for a nap, but she was not having it, becoming increasingly agitated and crying.

“I don’t know what I'm doing wrong.” You lamented, almost in tears yourself at her distress.

“Can I try?” He asked, holding his hands out for the infant.

You passed her to him, watching warily as he tucked her against his chest, bouncing slightly as he walked round the room with her. In less than a minute, she had quieted, already beginning to doze in his arms.

“Why does she only stop crying when you hold her?” You asked, watching him in disbelief.

“She’s just got good taste.” He said, stopping when he caught your expression. “I didn’t mean it like that. I meant-”

“I know, it’s fine,” You assured him. “I just…”

You didn’t finish the thought, pressing your lips into tight line, but he could read the worry in your eyes.

“You’re doing a good job, babies are just finicky sometimes.” He reassured you, thinking back to his own experiences looking after kids. “Don’t worry, it’ll be different with our kids.”

“Our what?” You looked up at him questioningly.

He froze again, eyes widening slightly as he realized his slip.

“I was just.. speaking hypothetically.” He said, unconvincingly, but you decided to let it go for the being, letting him bounce away from you again with Haru.

Later, after he'd managed to get her down for her nap and the two of you finally got to sit down together for a very late lunch, you brought up his earlier comment.

“So, you’ve thought about us having kids?” You asked, watching him carefully.

“I, uh… a little.” He admitted, glancing over at you nervously. “Is that bad?”

“No, it just surprised me a little.” You said. “I didn’t realize you thought about things like that for us.”

“I don’t, I mean, not really." He explained, trying to cover for himself. "It’s just one of those things that happens as a passing thought, you know?”

“Yeah, okay.” You said, grinning at his slightly flustered state.

“And it’s not like I wanna have them right now,” He insisted. “Just… maybe someday.”

"Maybe someday." You echoed.

It was quiet for a minute as you ate, before you decided to press him again.

“So how many do we have?”

“Three.” He answered immediately.

“Aha!" You exclaimed.

"What?!"

"It sounds like you've thought it about more than just a little!” You giggled, making him whine.

"Don't laugh at me!" He said defensively. “You asked me a question, what am I supposed to do, lie?”

“It’s cute though!” You said, still giggling.

At that moment, Haru decided to announce that she had woken up, crying loudly.

“I’ll go!” San said, jumping up quickly before you could say anymore.

You let him go, deciding you’d wait till after your friend had collected Haru to tell him how you'd thought about it too.

Part 6

Part 7

His Sky

@aintinacage @haru-reto

It had only been a few weeks since Peter Quill had returned back to his home Earth. Drax and Nebula were working on the new society. Mantis was exploring the world on her own. Leaving me and Groot with Rocket to lead the new guardians team. Tossing the covers off of my bunk I groaned, stretching out in an attempt to wake up. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes I focused my attention on Rocket’s bare back when he was yanking a shirt off his body and tossing it onto a chair. “Rock, you should have woke me up. I could have gotten up with you.”

“That wasn’t necessary, squirrel. Today ain't that exciting for patrol anyway.” He shrugged his shoulders, walking over to my cot and sitting down on the edge. “But let’s not talk about that.”

Sending him a slight glare I dropped my shoulders. “Rocket, come on. I know that being the leader can’t be easy.”

“Pfft nah. I’m totally fine. I mean I was already the leader because Quill wasn’t very good.” He made a noise crossing his arms over his chest but I could tell that he was trying to act like he wasn’t stressed when he truly was.

Slightly rolling my eyes at the raccoon I cared for I scooted closer to him so we were sitting side by side but not looking at one another. “Rock, you don’t have to lie to me. You can tell me if this is too much for you.”

“What…what. I’m not lying. Why would I lie about that?” Rocket waved his paws out in front of his chest avoiding my gaze while he spoke.

Hitting him on the arm he winced glaring at me. “Rocket, stop being all big and tough around me when we are alone. I get that the team needs a tough leader but we’re not just teammates.”

“I guess you’re right.” He rubbed his arm before his ears perked up with him jumping off the cot and I followed his footsteps. “Instead of sitting here getting mushy and stuff we should go get you trained with some weapons on the off chance we have to save the people of this planet.”

Shrugging my shoulders I went out the door with the raccoon where we walked side by side out of the building and into the crowded streets. He wouldn’t hold my paw unless we were alone, just the two of us. He had us enter a different part of our building for me to see guns laying around on a messy table. “Rocket, what is all this?”

"Weapons of my own design obviously, Y/n Squirrel. I told you that I would teach you how to shoot since you're on my guardians team now." He put his arms together across his furry chest

Scratching my head I nodded at the new leader. "I don't know if I'll be very good."

Rocket shrugged his shoulders tugging my arm in his paw until we were both standing in front of one of the target posters. It was hanging a little ways from us since the bullets needed to be tested from a further distance. "Ah you'll be fine. You've been a quick learner from the night we met."

"So I just hold it on my shoulder like this?" I asked nervously when I pressed part of the gun that looked like a rifle against my shoulder but it felt weird holding it the way I was in the moment.

The raccoon scratches his face for a brief moment stepping closer where his front was against my back as much as possible. "More like this, Y/n." He shifted my left hand further back from the end of the barrel and the butt of the gun was tightly against my shoulder with my right hand on the trigger.

"Uh Rock." I gulped feeling my furry face turning red at how close we were.

He ignores my worries. “Pay attention. Don’t be like Groot and do this wrong. Otherwise I won’t be able to tolerate dealing with any more idiots in my life. So you just hold it up against your arm like this and slowly squeeze the trigger after I step away.”

He stepped backwards with his hands down at his sides while I sucked in a tight breath focusing my gaze on the target in front of me. Blinking a couple of times I squeezed the trigger and the gun fired a few bullets off until the last one where I screamed when I fell back and landed on my back rubbing my head but I had a slight grin on my face at the feeling and the sound it made. “Ow! That was…amazing. Am I horrible for feeling like that?”

“Y/n, I’m sorry. Here let’s get you up.” He offered me his hands and helped pull me up to my feet ignoring the firearm laying on the floor abandoned now. “Don’t worry about it, Squirrel. But ohh yeah it’s a great feeling. I mean I get an adrenaline rush every time I get to use one of them.”

I chuckled, moving my hands down to sway at my sides meeting his soft brown eyes that were looking at mine. “I don’t know if I’ll ever be as passionate about this as you. But maybe you can teach me how to not get thrown on my tail the next time.”

“Sure, sure, we can totally do that.” He nodded immediately in agreement before something in his pocket started vibrating so he pulled out his tracker and saw Nebula’s face pop up on the blue hologram screen. “What do you want?”

She responded to her former teammate. “I know you’re going to hate this but I have a favor to ask of you guys. Could you come sometime and show the guardians are here to protect the new society?”

“Why the hell would we need to do something like that? We’re clearly busy with defending the galaxy and don’t have time to parade around in front of cameras and be friendly with stuck up people.” Rocket scoffed back at the blue robot woman.

Nudging him in the ribs I sent him a half glare. “Rocket, come on now. One night of fun won’t kill us…Nebula we will go.”

“What-“ Rocket raises his voice until I raise a hand in front of his face, cutting him off.

Turning my attention back to the new society leader I dropped my shoulders responding to the raccoon beside me. Knowing that he wouldn’t like the plan until later. “Nebula, we will be there when you need us. Just tell us where and when…as for you mister raccoon if you agree to go then when we get back I’ll let you teach me all of your favorite weapons hmm.”

“Fine, fine, but don’t think that I’ll be mushy all the time just because you ask me to do something. I have a reputation to maintain after all, Y/n Squirrel.” Rocket grumbled giving me a half smile hanging up the call with his friend focusing on me.

Putting my hands on his shoulders I smiled through some tears thinking back to our fallen friends. “Lylla, Teefs and Floor would have been proud of what you’re doing. And even more thrilled that we helped so many others escape the High Evolutionary.”

“Yeah you’re probably right, Y/n. When I almost died I saw them. They saw sky….I..l miss them.” He mumbled before he moved closer to me and for the first time in our lives actually hugged me first. Wrapping my arms around his neck I nuzzled my face into the crook of his neck.

Squeezing his shoulders I felt him squeeze me back before we both wiped away tears seeing Groot standing in the doorway. “Groot, how long have you been standing there?” I questioned the tree man that was taller than either of us,

“I am Groot.” He replied.

Rocket made a face where we both started blushing at what he had said. “No, we're not gonna have a kid. When I raised you by myself it was hard enough.” Groot lowered his smile before I separated away from him tugging the tree outside.

When Rocket was left alone he just watched you go along with his friend in silence and he thought to himself that life was easier with you around and that maybe just maybe someday you two could have kids or whatever and be a family.

Comments really appreciated ❤️

The Witch from Mercury Season 2 Reaction

Episode 18: “Our Empty Selves”

Seeing Suletta in the normal school uniform seems unnatural. Speaking of unnatural things, Suletta’s behaviour. And yes, I did see that one unmarked point on her wishlist

New change for the OP, Guel in uniform with his new ‘do

Unsurprisingly reclaiming Holder status didn’t make Jeturk’s problems go away, especially with lack of confidence from investors

Can I just say, Miorine looks good in a suit

Of course, there’s another secret Gundam! This is such a Vim Jeturk move. With the revelation that even Delling was using the tech for his super secret doomsday project, it really is clear that Sarius Zenelli was the only one who was actually consistent in his anti-Gundam rhetoric.

Oh, great, now Aerial is getting her own mobile suit looking GUND bits, as if she wasn’t OP enough.

Shaddiq is scheming again, but we all know that he’s playing with fire when it comes to Prospera. That boy is in so far over his head it’s pitiful

Suletta still dutifully looks after the greenhouse, because she needs to be useful to someone. Her entire self-worth is based on being useful to others, that’s how Prospera raised her

Chuchu ready to make Miorine out to be the bad guy, but Suletta only blames herself

Lauda, first off, unless you’re volunteering yourself for greenhouse duty, kindly piss off! Secondly, just because your brother had victory handed over to him doesn’t mean you’re anyone of importance. If anything, you’ve sunk even further than before. But at least you have enough sense to thank your saviour.

Chuchu means well, but she hasn’t caught on to what Suletta’s real problem is. She’s become yet another person that is dragging Suletta around and telling her what to do.

Oh yes, good idea! Leave Earth House in the sole care of one boy with a head injury, guarding against the very vandals that injured him in the first place! What could go wrong?!

Miorine is finally going to Earth? What a twist of fate.

The Counselling Room in Asticassia is literally just Haru on an altar?! No wonder everyone in this school is so screwed up!

Secelia?! What?! How?! Why?! I thought she lived in the Duelling Committee Room!

Oh, is our boy, Kananji, finally ready to reenter the plot?!

Miorine is currently running for an election that she is far behind on, of course you can’t just drop by to see her unannounced. She was already busy enough when she was running a new business.

Looks like it’s big sister’s turn to talk. The revelation about what Suletta is isn’t really surprising, but the important part is why Suletta was created. She was the “key” to helping Eri achieve her potential, but now as I suspected, Suletta has already fulfilled her role as said “key”.

So now that they are done using her, Eri and Prospera are setting her free. But like I said before, Suletta’s measures her entire self-worth in how useful she is to others. It’s both the kindest thing they’ve ever done for her and also the cruelest. The fact that that statement makes any sense to me is proof of how much they screwed up Suletta to achieve their goals.

Mini Fanfic #1145: Skull and Noir's Metal Filled Halloween Night (Persona 5 x SSBU)

7:45 p.m. at the Okamura's Residence's Living Room.........

TV Screen: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! (Heavy Metal Playing in the Background)

Haru: (Happily Raises her Fist Up in the Air While Next to Ryuji on the Sofa Together) WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!~ ROCK THE PIIIIITZ!!

Ryuji: (Chuckles Lightly) Damn, Haru! I knew there's a lot to more to ya than meets the eye, but I didn't know you had a thing for Heavy Metal music.

Haru: (Turns to Ryuji With a Bright Smile on her Face) Why, of course!~ I've been a fan of the genre for a long while now. It helped me out through so much in life that I doubt I would be the same nowadays without it.

Ryuji: Niiiice. I'm more of a Hip-Hop kind of guy myself- (Suddenly Let's Out a Loud Yawn While Stretching his Arm Up) But I'm always down to listen any rock related music sometimes....

Haru: (Giggles Softly) Aww~ Don't tell me you're getting sleepy on me already, Ryuji-Kun~

Ryuji: Nah, just feelin' yawny if anything. College been kickin' my ass with assignments lately. Haven't got that much sleep as I used to even.....

Haru: How come you never come to me fpr assistance? I'd be happy to help out.

Ryuji: (Sighs While Rubbing the Back of his Head Back and Forth) Yeah, but I figured you were already busy with your own thing that I didn't want to be all that much of a bother in the scheme of things.

Haru: (Frowns a Bit) Oh Ryuji, you could never be a bother to me. ('Sigh') But I do get what you're saying though. Things have been a lot more challenging since we've both enrolled to our respective curriculums.

Ryuji: Yeah, but we can worry about that some other time. Right now, I wanna sit back and watch more of this sick Metalocalypse show you've been telling me all about.

Haru: (Rapidly Clapping her Hands in Glee) Ohh I'm so glad you're lliking it so far!~ There's so many more spectacular scenes and moments later down the line that I cannot WAIT to show you!~

'Doorbell Ring'

Haru: Ooh!~ That might be the Trick-or-Treaters outsides!~ (Got Up and Make her Way to the Dpor)

Ryuji: (Follows Behind Haru) You know, you might be the only person I know who's excited to give out candy.

Haru: It always makes me happy seeing everyone enjoying Halloween, nostalgic even.

Ryuji: Yeah, I missed the good ol' days when you dressed in costumes, getting all the treats and candies you've dreamed of having, and egging and tee-peeing on the houses that don't give you any at all.

Haru: (Smirks at Ryuji While Picking Up a Bpwl of Candy From a Nearby Counter) A troublemaker I see~ Ever got caught doing those pranks?~

Ryuji: ('Scoffs') As if. You're talking to the fastest guy on the block here. I never got caught by anyone growing up!....Except for my mom.....and one of the neighbors' dogs......and Ann......and Shiho.......and Ren that one I pranked him- I am not impressing you one bit, aren't I?

Haru: (Giggles Softly) Oh no, I'm impressed alright~ By how cute you are, of course!~

Ryuji: (Glares at Haru) Hey, watch it, sista' Your son fits in the "cute" category, not me.

Haru: (Pouts at Ryuji) Oh hush! There's nothing wrong with having two of my boys as cuties~ (Playfully Pinches Ryuji's Cheek)

Ryuji: (Chuckles Ticklishly by Haru's Antics) C-Cut it out, will ya!?~ You're just as bad as my ma!

Haru giggles some more as she opens the door to see Futuba and the kids standing in front of her doorstep.

Kids: Trick-or-Treat!~ Trick-or-Treat!~ Give us something good to eat!~

Ness: (Bows His Upper Body Down at the Duo) Please and thank you.

Haru: (Gasps Loudly as She Place Both her Hands onto her Cheeks) Oh my gossssssh!~ You all look and sounded so adorable!~

Lavenza: (Happily Bows Down While Lifting the Lower Part of her Princess Dress Slightly Up) Why, thank you!~ We do our best to look our best for the spooky occasion as they say.

Morgana: (Points at Futuba Besides Him While Wearing his Musketeer Costume) Plus, Ms. Nerdy Featherwoman here kept making us sing that sing at almost EVERY place we've visited so far.

Futuba: (Glares at Morgana) Okay, first of all, I'm the Green Neo Featherwoman, thank you. Amd second, would you quit having little faith in me already? Our singing method's working like a charm so far. Mostly.

Ness: (Sighs While Dressed as a Dracula) Here's hoping we can keep it that way without getting into any trouble. (Slowly Turns his Jead at the Potential Culprit) And by "we", I mean you. JUNIOR!

Jr: (Was About to Sneak in Front of the House While Holding a Roll of Toilet Paper Before Stopping at his Tracks Once his Name was Heard) What happen?

Futuba: (Sighs While Pinching the Bridge of her Nose) Dangit, Junior. I thought I told you no tee-peeing anyone's house tonight!?

Jr: Oh come on, I only got one roll with to use! And besides, didn't you say to trick 'em at some point?

Futuba: Yeah, when they DON'T give you candy, which Haru-san was about to do right now by the way!

Ryuji: Yeah, and you're not even doing it right. You have to step a few inches back from the house, get into your perfect throwing position, and-

Haru: Ryuji! (Turns to the Youngest Koopa) Now, Junior, don't you think it's a bit mean to try and throw paper at someone who's giving out treats?

Jr: ('Sighs in Defeat') It is....Sorry for almost doing so, Ms. Haru.....

Haru: (Smiles Softly) It's quite alright, dear, no harm done. (Place a Few Candy Down on Jr's Bag) I love your costume.

Jr: (Smiles Brightly) Thanks! Sage told me it's suppose to be this Freddy guy from that Elm St. Movie or whatever.

Haru: (Continues Giving Out Candy to Everyone Else) Sage?

Ryuji: Who's that?

Ness: A new friend we met not too long ago.

Morgana: We're about to meet her and the others at Smash Tpwn to try out that new Haunted Mansion place everyone beem talking about. Wanna come with?

Futuba: (Puts on a Grin) I got plenty of spare Feathermen suits for you guys to wear~

Ryuji: Cool, but no can do, you guys. Haru and I already booked to watch a night marathon here.

Futuba: Really? Since when did you guys started hanging out with each other?

Ryuji: (Casually Shrugs) For a while now. Gotta start the dat- I-I mean, the....Friendship Train going! (Chuckles a Bit Awkwardly There) Am I....right?

Futuba: (Squints her Eyes at Ryuji a bit Suspiciously) Hmmmmmmmm- Hrm? (Suddenly Felt her Phone Viberating From her Costume's Pocket as She Takes her Phone Out and Check the Message Sent to Her)

Morgana: Anyways, Ryuji.....(Takes a Regular Size Chocolate Bar From Put of his Bag and Tosses it Towards Ryuji) Catch.

Ryuji: (Catches the Bar Mona Gave him With a Surprised Look on his Face) Ah dude, you're actually giving me your chocolate bar right now?

Morgana: (Happily Nodded) Yep! I already got a few more in the bag and I figured you would want one right about you, you know?

Ryuji: (Forms a Cheeky Grin on his Face) Well, ain't this a surprise!? Thanks, bud!

Haru: (Smiles Proudly at her Son) That is so sweet of you, honey!~

Jr: (Gives Haru the Roll of Toilet he Was Holding) You can have the toilet paper too. You'll probably have more use for it than I ever will.

Haru: (Smiles Softly at Jr) Thank you, sweetie.

Futuba: Holy macaroni! The attraction's about to start in a few minutes! We gotta get a move on, people!

Kids: (Cheers in Rejoice)

Haru: (Giggles Softly) Well, don't let us keep you waiting then.

Ryuji: Yeah, uh....Mona?

Morgana: (Turns Back to Ryuji) Yeah?

Ryuji: Uhh......Listen to what Futuba says and.....Have a good time out there, yeah?

Morgana: Oh uh....(Smiles a Little) Yeah, sure thing. You guys have a good time too. We'll miss you.

Haru: We'll miss you too, baby~

Ryuji: Yeah, and don't worry about your ma, kiddo. (Points at Himself with a Cocky Grin on his Face) She's in good hands by yours truly after all!

Morgana: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah, I'll hold you to it, Mr. Bodyguard.

Futuba: (Happily Waves Goodbye to the Duo as She and the Others Take Their Leave) Later guys! Have a Spooooooooky Halloween Night!~

Kids: Byeee!~\ See ya!\ Have a good night!

Haru: (Happily Waves Back at Everyone) Have a spooky Halloween Night yourselves, everyone!~ Enjoy your candy!~ (Watches Futuba and the Kids Leave as She Behins to Let Out a Sigh) I miss them already. (Turns to Ryuji) You okay, Ryuji-san?

Ryuji: ('Sigh') Yeah, a little....(Turns Back to Haru) Sorry for chickening out there, Haru. I don't know what came over me at that moment.....

Haru: That was your nerves showing and it's okay, truly. If anything, I would've done the same in your position.

Ryuji: Yeah, but....I don't wanna make it seem like I'm ashamed of dating you or anything, cuz I'm not.

Haru: (Gently Grabs Ryuji's Hand While Giving him a Sincere, Reassuring Look in her Eyes) I know you aren't, dear. I can tell by the look in your eyes alone that you love, just as much as I love you too. (Kiss the Top of Ryuji's Hand)

Ryuji: (Starta Blushing by Haru's Simple, Yet Effective Display of Affection) ......Damn, Haru. Since when did you became more romantic than I am?~

Haru: (Giggles Softly) When you get arranged to forced marriages as much as I have, you tend to get more romantic knowledge and experiences out of it, for better or for worse.

Ryuji: (Gently Grabs Haru's Hand) I'll make sure to I do everything I can make you happy.

Haru: (Smiles Brightly) Silly~ You've already made me plenty happy just by being here and loving me~ (Gives Ryuji a Kiss on the Cheek) Now, come. I believe we still got ourselves Metal show to watch and our very own cuddle session to proceed going forward~

Ryuji: (Smiles Brightly) Lead the way, ma'am!~

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!~

I've been thinking about how the Gods 'cannot harm humans' but also how Haruaki's been hit, kicked and had wrestling moves done against him by a few Gods throughout the manga. Definitely for the humor of the manga (it is funny when it happens lol).

But I guess what I'm waiting to see is if Haru getting kicked around by Gods is just going to being a continuous gag, or if it is actually a hint that Haruaki (because he's a descendent of Abe no Seimei) isn't... entirely human. If it is a hint to that, I wonder if any of the known Gods noticed it.

Because I may be wrong, but it might be a Taboo that has a consequence against Gods that harm humans. Similar to what happened to Suzaku, but probably not to that same level of punishment as that, depending on the extent of harm done.

you know what this is kinda interesting to think about, there’s a few things that Might point to Haruaki not being entirely human, but I just don’t know if this is necessarily one of them, mainly because of 2 things:

Thing 1: Semantics

Every time this is brought up, very specific wording is used: not “gods cannot harm humans”, rather “gods cannot KILL humans”. (One exception: Ebisu in ch 91, he says gods cannot harm humans. But it's Ebisu so like…) I don’t know if that’s a hard rule, as in “gods can get away with any amount of harm as long as it doesn’t kill” but none of the gods we’ve seen are that interested in chasing loopholes regardless (in an actual serious way like torture or something).

(Also, judging by the fuujin and raijin’s dictionary entry, it probably isn’t)

The more I reread ch 90 and 93 the more baffled I am honestly. The gods in ch 93 seem to imply there’s a difference between killing a sinner and an innocent, but in ch 90 Byakko was talked down from killing Douman despite believing fully that Douman killed Seimei, which kinda implies Gods Are Not Allowed To Kill Humans, Period. (The exception being the specific situation where Seimei is some part youkai and therefore not under the general “gods protect humans” umbrella, which would fulfill both “Byakko believes Douman killed Seimei” and “Byakko believes he will be punished for killing Douman”)

Also, if it’s as Takahashi’s anecdote about dodomeki suggests, there’s other ways to turn a human into a youkai that don’t involve killing, so why did Suzaku specifically choose to kill Douman? Unless Takahashi’s story is just a cute story, and turning a human into a youkai does involve killing, just that killing sinners is okay OR the higher-up gods get to decide???

In any case, how this applies to Haruaki, since he’s evidently super hard to kill, is probably doing something irreversible to either his soul or body that he couldn’t come back from, something the four gods intended to do had their plan succeeded according to Byakko (since he says they've "thought this through"). Anything short of that, like we've seen, doesn't kill him.

(On that note, what exactly was their plan??? As far as is shown the shikigami papers are only able to summon something that already exists to where the paper is. How does it interact with a (ambiguously) human soul???)

If that’s true, this maneuver would be really stupid and also funny (well, considering they were ready for the worst case scenario of becoming youkai regardless…)

(UNLESS. It only applies to doing something irreversible to the soul?? In which case what is a soul and also why is Haruaki’s Like That. Both of these possibilities are Weird)

End of the day, there’s just not enough sample size: The only confirmed god on human murder is Suzaku and Douman, which itself is an edge case since we don’t know the full story of what happened to Seimei. And then we’re talking about Haruaki, who’s also an edge case considering he’s gotten his soul taken out 3 times (that we've seen) and walked it off every time. (Granted, we haven’t seen him take fatal damage physically)

And now, the second thing, way more simple:

Thing 2: It is still October

As of chapter 97, we are still in October, aka Kannazuki, aka “the month when gods aren’t here”. They have fucked off to Izumo. It’s just the four gods who stuck around in Kyoto for this plan of theirs. We’ve seen a handful of gods now, and none of them are all that omniscient or all-powerful, they probably have to be watching to be doing any smiting. In which case, if there is any consequences, we would have to wait until November in-universe to see.

(We actually do know what date chapter 97 happens on: October 18. Haru says Mame’s seat number matched the date, and I just remembered today that his seat number is shown in ch39 page 1)

[queenharumiura]

((I’m bored and I felt the need to do random drabbles. I’m sure this has happened in at least one verse. Let a girl keep her options open, will ya?))

-

“What’s with you? What are you doing?”

“Hahi? What do you mean? What’s wrong with Haru?” She’d been tasked with showing someone around town and at one point, Ryohei had started watching her from afar whilst out on a jog. He’s gotta keep himself in shape and running was a must!

She’d just said goodbye to the guy she’d just been showing around when Ryohei runs up to her, questioning her. She’s done nothing wrong and she resents him questioning her like this without context.

“That guy, who is he? You were being so—so--- you know?” He didn’t know how to word it exactly. He felt like he was stuck in an awkward situation, like if Kyoko were to show interest in a guy! He didn’t like it! The only way he’d accept a guy dating Kyoko is if he could beat Ryohei in a boxing match!

He’ll never accept a guy that can’t protect Kyoko, to the extreme!

“Are you talking about Antonio? He’s the guy you all asked Haru to show around Namimori. You all had something else going on, and I had a free schedule for the day—so I volunteered to show him around.” Is she surprised that Ryohei didn’t recognize the guy? Not at all.

She was being so—what, exactly? She could hazard a few guesses, but was it any of his business? No. Did he or any of the guys think it was their business?

Suspicious, she crosses her arms over her chest, eyeing him warily. “Why does it matter to begin with? I can find any person’s company pleasant if I want to.”

Ryohei awkwardly laughs, avoiding eye contact. “A-ah, so you were just enjoying company, is that all? That’s fine. Yeah, that’s fine.” He was internally sweating to the max. It would’ve been the same for him if Kyoko started showing an interest in a random guy.

It was one thing for a guy to show interest in Kyoko since he could always step in as a protective brother and fend him off, but if Kyoko was the one showing interest in someone? That was a trickier matter. You can’t just start a fight and chase the guy off—not without making your sister mad at you. What if she gets upset? Starts to cry?

He can feel the hives already at the mere thought.

Somewhat familiar with how Ryohei got when he got nervous about Kyoko, Haru had a suspicion about what this was about. “Antonio is nice.” She watches him flinch. “He asked if we could meet again another time.” Another flinch, and his eyes seem to be jittering.

Knew it.

“W-what did you say? You said no, right?”

A smug smirk from Haru. She’s gotchu now. “Why would I say no? He’s nice.”

“No! It’s dangerous! What about someone else? I thought you liked Sawada!”

“I gave up on that so long ago, what nonsense are you talking about? You’re telling me that you allowed me to tourist a guy around that is dangerous? Really? You can make up a better lie than that. Whatever, Haru has a date coming up so, Haru will see you later, Onii-san.” With a casual hand wave, she walks off.

Did she have a date lined up? No.

Did she in fact turn the guy down? Yes. He wasn’t exactly her type.

Can she hear Ryohei on the phone screaming about something, saying it was an emergency? Yes. Haru, the menace at it again to strike a little bit of chaos within the Vongola. All because she got annoyed with Ryohei grilling her.

Hm? Why is her phone ringing?

“Moshi mo- HAHI!? What do you MEAN I’m not allowed to see Antonio after this? Who are YOU to tell me that I can’t meet someone? HAH!? Say it to my face!”

You have one guess to know who just called.

Leave it to the resident bomber to start a fight instantly. “No, don't do that. Don't harass an innocent person. I was only joking when I said I had a date. He's not my type."

...

"Do you think I didn't hear that collective sigh just now? I have a right to meet whoever I want, you know." She pauses to listen to the other side, "Well, if he was my type, I would've agreed."

Haru moves her phone away from her ear because one of the voices got very loud on the other end. "You can't control who I can or cannot meet. There's nothing wrong with me keeping my options open!"

There she goes moving the phone away from her ear again. Annoyed, she simply hangs up and silences her phone.

Suddenly it dawns on her that she may very well become a spinster in this lifetime.

Uwaaahhhhh woe is Haru…

Can’t you let her keep her options open? How rude.

[buttclench-ryugazaki]

gonna be hater so here are my half-inebriated thoughts about what i didn't like about the final stroke part dos

• boring. you can even stop reading right here because that's my overarching opinion

• i still don't fully understand or like the conflict between rin and haru and resolution was... confusing? and frustrating! the race and following conversation don't actually address the issue of haru feeling abandoned. he apologizes for saying hurtful things he didn't actually mean and rin apologizes for... not thinking of haru's feelings when making decisions about his own swimming career? (i don't want to turn this into what is basically an r/AmITheAsshole thread, because i hate how contemporary fandom discourse treats every fictional conflict like one, but like. haru's TA. rin did nothing wrong. they kind of acknowledge it but they don't follow through). i don't really know what i was supposed to take away from this ordeal

• if not outright retconning stuff, attempting to write around or re-contextualize stuff in a way that i find dishonest or disrespectful to viewers' intelligence. the big example being haru confronting his younger inner self, where it actually turns out he was actively repressing his desire to swim in a relay as an affect of his loneliness (?), instead of simply being apathetic as he was previously written. why rewrite the main character's backstory and motivations at the very last minute? we've been along for this ride for the past nine years, come on

• rin continuing with his "my relation to haru isn't that simple" explanation to ikuya, who as far as i remember simply described them as friends. or suggested that rin see haru in the infirmary because that's an inconsequential but kind thing to do? i do not fucking understand. i hated this stance in fs1 and i hate it now. they have a unique bond for sure but they're not not friends

• speaking of rin and haru's friendship, i was put off by the "red-blue super sentai destined partners" imagery, and then the shot of them holding hands as kids. i've always viewed rin and haru as two people who were undoubtedly important to each other but, in regards to certain parts of their individual lives, not particularly close. those shots felt like they mischaracterized their relationship to be a lot closer retroactively (but because of the nature of interpretation i am more willing to let this one go. also nobody can accuse me of having a bias against rinharu, by the way, i used to be huge on rinharu. but i have thoughts about what it looks like and it wasn't this)

• i got a little irritated with how many times a character would start talking about haru and how much they need to support haru, oh we haven't seen him in a while is he doing okay? my times are getting better don't you think BUT HARU- i don't think this is an inherently bad way to convey information to an audience but it happens too frequently in scenes that are already too short. so i never felt like i got to see the characters fully as i know and love them because they were too busy providing commentary

• kinjou barely had any impact as a character, as a villain, as an ally, etc. his big climactic heel-turn moment is him finally giving teamwork a try (at the expense of asahi's participation, press f to pay respects lmao), i guess. when he was introduced in df i was excited for him to be an honest to goodness asshole for once in free!'s history but his presence quickly fizzled out. he stopped being threatening right away and there wasn't nearly enough there to make me care about him

• what were these two movies about, anyway? what was the arc and what was the resolution? early promotional material, as well as a significant portion of part 1, made me believe it was about haru reexamining his relationship to competitive swimming and the possibility of going pro, but it just concludes with "haru continues to do the thing he set out to do a season ago." i admit i am one of those people who wasn't completely satisfied with the ending of eternal summer, where haru decides to start competing seriously after a season of fighting exactly that. it didn't feel like a solid resolution. so i was intrigued with the idea that haru could outright quit, or reorient his goals, something. but that didn't happen. and it didn't have to, really, but anything other than "and the story continues!!!" would have been better. nothing changed in the end. what was the point

[ghxstchronicals]

idk. I don't think I could ever imagine myself being in haru's position ... the amount of religious trauma I would obtain from my parents - especially my dad after my mom passed. can't even have a boyfriend or thoughts about one without getting "disciplined" for it

not to mention the man i'd inadvertently turn my twin brother into - wanting to be the one getting attention from our parents, but never getting as much as me - plaguing his mind into the half-witted monster he is now, a psychopathic narcissist with that need for the spotlight and for things to always be bent his way

accidentally overdosing, being confused when I wake up...i don't have any special bonds, if I can remember correctly. no, I don't; my twin brother got out of canada before I did - he envied me. my mother's dead but our relationship wasn't... then there's my dad. so why am I alive?

oh. my question becomes answered when I bump into my twin at a carnival and he forces his number back into my phone...??? he wanted to stay in touch with me?? okay..

yeah, I end up getting out and going to college - but it still feels...empty, yunno? something's missing and wrong, and I don't know what it is.

i dont, until some depressed guy catches my eye. oh, wait, he's pushing me away, okay-

nevermind. I'm his friend now! :D

his name's Dilon. he's very cold, and has way too much sass and sarcasm for one (1, singular) depressed person. but he has a lot of emotional baggage...that he won't tell me about..

... I don't know what happens, but I wake up in his bed, and by the time my eyes are open, I catch him scrambling out of it wordlessly. my chest almost hurts, but not just because of the quick withdrawal - did I really do this? I just slept with a guy.

i try not to think much of it, but it happens again, and again, and again, even though he's the one insisting every time is the last.

it was only when i called a stop to the sex one day and cried out of guilt and the fear of the consequences I'd face for sinning - and he understood and got off his knees just to make sure I was alright,

that I realized i loved this guy.

and the feelings never went away - i loved him. I can love somebody.

but can he love me back?

i would think so...but i thought i'd have to hear it from him first.

... I really regretted asking. hell, I regretted going over.

but I couldn't help but to see a ring on his finger, one he hadn't worn around me before. I assumed it was just jewelry--he was rich and he wasn't very humble about it (I found that out after I fucked up his, apparently, thousand dollar fur coat). so of course, i'd ask.

...what do you mean you're married?

you have a wife? what?

she just...for the past year, she hasn't been here?

then- then what was the point of you still having the ring? she obviously wasn't coming back. she left, and we were-

"All my heart belongs to her, Haru. I. love you, I really do. However, I could never love you the way I love her." (my favorite part in the whole Google doc)

i wasn't even a rebound. I was barely a rebound. I was, originally, just here to past time until his stupid wife came back. who even was she? it's been a year, he never even talked about her. she's not coming back-

i get punched when I say this. what's wrong with me? is what i'd usually ask myself if I was thinking straight.

we almost fall out after that.

almost.

because if I wasn't already in his house when he stumbled in, staring at the floor like he just saw a ghost - and then promptly knocking over his furniture and collapsing down the wall and sobbing -- if I wasn't there to hold him, against my better judgement, we would've probably never spoken again.

i can taste something bitter in my mouth again as he mentions her.

apparently, he had seen her. they bumped into each other...but she didn't recognize him.

hell, she was even calling someone else her husband. some blonde guy.

i hate myself for a moment when I think I have a chance, finally. but the more rational side of me thinks, knows not to say anything. because if I do, then all the words would be for myself.

i didn't think it was possible to hate someone I hadn't even met, or seen pictures of yet, for that matter. I'm not usually a hateful person, despite everything i'd been through and then some.

but I can't help but think she's ruined everything for me. I don't even know her name.

i just cant believe she made me lose what wasn't even mine yet.

but then I think...

would he have ever been mine, either way?

Ouma Great War Chronicles - Episode 34: Thank You

Narrator:  Reizei Rihito had tampered with a part of Tsubaki’s memory. Having regained his original memories, Tsubaki knew the organization would silence him, and confessed to Kaida that he himself was the culprit who created the Treasure Chests of Lunacy. At that moment, Saionji appeared before them. With the announcement that he and Tsubaki were leaders in the Star of Kiou, he launched an attack to eliminate Tsubaki.

Saionji:  No further, Hinata. … Fall to pieces.

Kaida:  Hinata!!

sfx:  slash

Tsubaki:  … gh, Kaida… senpai!?

Kaida:  Ngh…

Tsubaki:  Kaida-senpai! You’re bleeding!

Kaida:  I’m fine. It just nicked me, that’s all…

Tsubaki:  Why…

Kaida:  Protecting my underlings is part of my job as a boss too.

Tsubaki:  What… are you talking about? I, I deceived you, you know…?

Kaida:  Mn. But you didn’t deceive me because you liked doing it, right? I can tell by looking at your face.

Tsubaki:  Hh…

Saionji:  Heh, so you’re best buddies now. Why did it have to turn out like this.

Kaida:  Please stop this, Masamune-san. If you’re both leaders in the Star of Kiou, why are you trying to kill Hinata!?

Saionji:  Are you asking me that seriously? Or is this some attempt at stalling for time? You’re sharp enough to have figured it out already. Because he’s become this way, I have no option but to erase him. And, the reason for that is you. Haru.

Kaida:  Heh…?

Tsubaki:  You’re wrong!! This is not Kaida-senpai’s fault!

Saionji:  Then, instead of being protected by Haru, how about obediently getting cut down?

Kaida:  I won’t let you!!

Saionji:  You’re in the way!

sfx:  thud

Kaida:  Ghah!

Tsubaki:  Kaida-senpai!!

Saionji:  This really is the end, Hinata.

sfx:  slash

Tsubaki:  ahh…

Kaida:  Hinata ─ !

Tsubaki:  Hah, hah, hah, hah…

Saionji:  You’re still breathing? Fortune doesn’t favor you. In the end, you still had to suffer. I’ll put you at ease quickly.

Kaida:  S- stop…

sfx:  metal clink

Kaida:  STOP!!! Fu (seal), kai (partition), sho (illuminate), kyo (boundary) ─ mei (hell), zan (rend)!!

Saionji:  Tch… You wanna have a go? This power is on a different level from your exorcism school days. … However, you’re still much too green!

sfx:  slash

Kaida:  Hah, hah…  (Why would Masamune-san do this? I can’t fathom it! Moreover, the difference in ability between me and him is obvious. He’s not an opponent I can face as a direct threat. But… for the sake of protecting Hinata, I’ve got to do this. I must not lose here!) Don’t you lay a hand on Hinata…!

Saionji:  Struggle all you want, but it’s futile. Once I’ve decided to do something, I’ll see it through.

Tsubaki:  Kaida-senpai!

sfx:  talisman activating

Saionji:  Wh- !?

Kaida:  Could this be…  (a transportation talisman!?)

Tsubaki:  Eheheh… Thank goodness… Because Kaida-senpai bought some time, it activated safely. With this, at least you can escape from this place…

Kaida:  Wh- oi! Undo this jutsu right now! If we’re escaping, then both of us –

Tsubaki:  Haha… We worked together to create this talisman with our combined jutsu, so there’s no way for me to undo it anymore. Besides, transporting a single person is already the limit.

Kaida:  That’s…

Tsubaki:  Escape from here properly… Kaida-sen…pai. Please.

Kaida:  … nh! Hinata!!

Tsubaki:  Thank you.

scene:  city street

Kaida:  … nh! Where is this…? (This is a road I take on the way toward the Bureau… It’s in the opposite direction from Hinata’s laboratory, but they shouldn’t be too far apart. Hinata… please be alright!)

scene:  Tsubaki’s Research Laboratory

Kaida:  Hinata!! (Neither of them are here. But also, this is… probably Hinata’s blood.) Damn it! I couldn’t… protect my pupil…

(flashback) Tsubaki:  Thank you.

Kaida:  ……  (Don’t despair now. I need to think… The fact that there is no body here means I can’t verify that Hinata is dead. Hinata escaped in the end. First and foremost, I need to collect what information there is. Where could I hide myself…?) There’s no place but there.

CH.12

« If anything comes to mind, don't hesitate to contact us. » « I know how this works, » Kyoko grumbled.

Hawks sighed. He suspected that the attack had been fatal to the young policewoman's morale, but it hadn't helped her character, which was not at all inclined to cooperation. The winged hero then glanced at his companion: his spitting image in younger form... His son, Haru. He resembled him in every way except that he looked a little more serious at the same age. The latter seemed to have lost nothing from the exchange and a thousand ideas were already brewing in his head, Hawks could see that. He smiled a somewhat proud smile, just enough to avoid being noticed and to break his professional image.

« It was clearly a warning. Your family has been placed under police protection. If this group ever tries to attack them, we will be the first to act, » Hawks assured. « They don't know my sister...» Kyoko muttered with a smile.

This time it was Haru's turn to smirk.

« And let's hope they don't know her. Anyway, give us a call if anything comes up. Get well soon, Miharu-san.»

Kyoko exchanged a glance with Haru for a moment. They seemed to understand each other but didn't go into details, at least not verbally. The meeting was over and the Takami were about to spread their wings, heading for the upstairs balcony when Heisuke and Shin walked up to Kyoko's room. Shin gritted his teeth. Hawks was already high in the sky, his red wings carrying him when Icarus stopped short of the boy.

« I- » Shin began. « Haven't we met somewhere before?! » exclaimed Haru, his avian eyes looking curiously yet harshly at Shin. « I-... it depends! If it's between 7 p.m. and 2 a.m. .... Trade with my lawyer. Oh, here he comes now! Oh Kaji-san! »

And so, like a cat and a dog looking at each other, Kaji and Haru seemed to hate each other. No words were exchanged. It was as if the sun met the moon. Icarus looked at the young Shin one last time and spread his golden wings, one of them made of metal. He rose into the air and disappeared into the night. Heisuke and Shin, who had been holding their breaths until now, were finally able to release the pressure.

« Was it just me, or was there some kind of tension? » muttered Shin, livid. « What did you do to Icarus now, you moron? » asked Heisuke, white as a ghost. « Nothing, I swear! You don't forget something like that. » « Hey. You idiots, » Kaji's firm voice thundered.

The idiots in question straightened up at attention, as if in the army.

« Yes! » « Kyo asks to see you... If you tire her out I'll kick your ass, is that clear? »

The two boys seemed to hesitate for a moment, but after exchanging a glance, they decided to move towards Kyoko's room. Heisuke felt his stomach twist. Miharu-san was in a bad shape. Even without using her quirk much, he knew that she was a real force of nature, it was showing in her look, in her way of behaving with them. Something inside him broke, his heart perhaps, at the thought of seeing someone so strong having come so close to death.

Kyoto smirked as she watched the two young men freeze.

« Are you going to stand there like two idiots for long? Sit down, I'm not going to bite you, » Kyoko ordered firmly but gently.

They complied without further ado, but they remained as straight as spikes. Kaji stood at the entrance, arms crossed over his chest as if waiting for something.

« Boys, why the long face? I'm not dead. It takes a lot more to beat me."

The words did not reassure Heisuke and Shin. Both of them clenched their fists on their knees, as if to endure the situation. Kyoko and Kaji did not have time to look at each other for long. They knew that something was wrong.

"Miharu-san," began Heisuke. "If you had died that night, all our efforts to integrate U.A. would have been like a sacrifice. You took the time with Kaji-san to raise us up when no one wanted to hear about a bastard son of a villain. To die now… It's frustrating just to think about it. You haven't seen anything yet!"

This time, Heisuke's voice grew louder. He looked at Kyoko with eyes full of determination.

"Don't die before you see us at the top. Please!"

And in an almost synchronized gesture, Shin and Heisuke lowered their heads further into a formal, respectful request. Kyoko blinked in surprise, mouth agape. Kaji hid a smile and turned her head away slightly. Those kids had managed to nail Kyo's beak! he thought.

ꕤ 16. a dunk of cold water

tw: cursing / wc: 1.4k

the busy city life on the other side of the café's window is a welcomed scenery. it's a drastic change from the stuffy library you sit in with other students as you burn through hours and hours of studying. not to mention a few exciting things that happened within the past hour, such as a couple breaking up at the table behind you, a rude customer getting kicked out, or ayaka's curious gaze as she asked you a question you certainly did not see coming.

"what have you and yoimiya been up to these days, anyway?" she shrugs, looking elsewhere, as her fingers fidget around the comfortingly warm mug of hot chocolate. "not that i'm jealous… okay, maybe i am, but only because it feels like i'm out of the loop with you these days."

frankly, it was pretty easy to sum everything up—"oh, don't worry bestie, you're not missing much out of my poor old boring life! only that i like your brother and we text often but he doesn't know it's me he's texting, but i'm sad he doesn't even ask questions about our little game anymore and would rather talk about that stupid girl he likes."—but you rather get deposed and kicked out of the university than ever admit that to ayaka.

technically, she only said you can't date ayato so having a teeny tiny crush isn't exactly part of the rules she had set for you.

despite the loophole, guilt weighs heavy in your heart, and you can't find yourself lying to her more than you "already" are.

so, you compromised.

"i think i like someone. the guy i kissed at the kappa sig party? yeah, him. but i don't like that i like him because he's way out of my league and yoimiya heard from other students that he likes someone. you're not exactly out of the loop."

ayaka frowns, looking genuinely sad as she pouts.

"oh no, the one time you finally like someone and this happens? forgive me if i'm wrong but is this the reason why you went out on that friendly date with haru?"

"yeah."

as expected, miss president catches on fast.

it's truly the 8th wonder of the world when someone as awfully clumsy as you managed to keep your growing affection for a certain someone's older brother a secret for so long. it definitely keeps you up at night.

"can i ask what's his name?"

oh fuck.

"his what?"

you nearly shot whipped cream through your nostrils.

ayaka chuckles. "his name, what major is he in, what year he is… oh you know! all the juicy stuff. is he a good kisser?"

yeah, haha no-no to the juicy stuff please, and don't ask me if he's a good kisser he's literally your older brother. ew.

"oh that…" you stutter. "well, funny story i don't… don't actually know his name! i only know that he's from a different university. the night we kissed was really blurry haha. drank and partied too much, you know, so i hardly remember much from it. it's just a tiny crush anyway, you know how exaggerated yoimiya gets. that's really all there is to it!"

your phone vibrates, an incoming call from…

aya-too hot to handle

SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!

"so, yn, i was kinda wondering if…"

your hand shoots to grab the tiny menace and cover that offending contact name. too caught up in your panicked state, your palm bangs against the table and alerts nearly everyone within your table's vicinity. heads turning to see what caused the abrupt loud noise—you'll take this humiliation than ayaka finding out the truth.

your bestfriend stops speaking, looking at you with an expression you can't read.

holy shit. is this it? is she gonna find out? is this my death? is 'tis the day the blinding light of a goddess fully embraces me and guides me towards the mysterious afterlife???

"i can—"

"here's a tissue! why did you have to kill the mosquito with your bare hands?! now, look! all it's grimy mosquito blood is on your phone screen!"

hallelujah! god bless, mosquito!

"ah!" you forced out a laugh. "hahaha! right! i was getting annoyed by it, and i was scared it might land on our food."

ayaka promptly agrees and carries on the conversation as you sneakily send a text to ayato, who's impeccable and wonderful timing will be your thirteenth reason.

to: aya-too hot to handle —DONT CALL ME

aya-too hot to handle, replied: —but why :(

you wanted to bang your head against the wall or throw yourself out of the window and run like a mad person down the streets. anything would've been better than this situation and you draw the conclusion that you should have rejected ayaka's offer to go to a café outside campus.

you can already imagine the absolute joy in yoimiya's face as she laughs at you and your misery once you tell her about all the shit that went down.

"oh, ayaka, yn, didn't expect to see you girls here." 

is that god you hear?

ayato stands unfairly handsome despite being in a simple hoodie and some sweatpants, standing next to a girl you clearly have not seen before in your entire life.

"nii-san! what are you doing here?" ayaka asks after shooting the girl a friendly smile. a smile you can't give her no matter how much you force yourself into trying to act normal.

ayato blinks before. "i live around the area, remember? plus, the boys are over at the apartment and i lost at rock paper scissors. so here we are, buying their coffee."

the girl scoffs before laughing as she playfully bumps his shoulders. "if only you didn't try to play mind games with them! seriously, who yells out what they're gonna use in rock paper scissors and actually ends up using it?"

"wait, what?" ayaka laughs together with her.

huh, getting all chummy with the sister-in-law already?

"'yato was trying to mess with itto and say he'll use scissors. so itto used rock but ayato actually ended up using scissors and he lost."

fucking excuse me? "'YATO"?!

"no way?" ayaka says before laughing with the girl.

ayato groans, pulling her away by her hand. "come on, kana. i wanna get back home already and start the movie marathon."

the girl—kana—rolls her eyes before sending ayaka and you one last smile, letting herself be tugged away by ayato to the counter.

"do you think they're together?" ayaka whispers, leaning over the table as if ayato and kana can hear her from way across the room. "i wish they are. they look great together, don't you agree?"

no, they don't. BOOOO.

"dunno," you shrug. "maybe?"

you feel any form of happiness and excitement getting sucked out of your body as you replay the scene of ayato's fingers curling around kana's before pulling her away toward the counter. was she the girl he liked? it's gotta be. she's pretty. someone who just fits into ayato's side so much that when other people see the pair, they immediately go, "omg! they look perfect together! their future kids won the gene pool!" and judging by your oblivious best friend's reaction, your hypothesis is proven true.

you're lying. they do look great together. so great, that you can't even deny it. you've never been in his league, not even an arm's reach—and seeing kana was a reminder. a reminder you weren't ready to see and a dunk of cold water on your already shivering frame.

"well, i hope they're dating so i don't have to worry about nii-san's future anymore. being an heir to an empire's more like a prison than a blessing, if ya ask me."

you wanted her to stop talking but couldn't find the words to. not that you'll be able to explain and get away with why you genuinely wanted her to shut up.

you've been so out of it that you don't notice both your phones have been notifying text message after text message until ayaka's loud exclaim snaps you out of it.

"i can't believe this! and right when it's the day before the show."

"wait, what? huh?"

"hiroto quit the hosting gig last-minute! aren't you reading our group chat right now?!"

Fruits basket preferences-Keychain

1K masterlist 

A/N: For the last prompt on my 1K prompt list I wanted to try something new,I might write more for fruits basket if this is well received 

Tohru - Rice Ball

Class was over and you walked out to meet your girlfriend. Her class was out early,you found her standing at the front of the school. Wrapping your arms around her,you kissed her cheek. 

"Hey plum"

"Y/N" She laughed,turning her head to kiss you. 

"You ready to go?" You swung your bag over your shoulder,suddenly her face lit up. 

"When did you get that?" She pointed to your bag. You realized that she was asking about your keychain,which was a rice ball with a plum on the back. 

"A few days ago. I saw it and thought of you,so I had to get it" Her face lit up even more,and her smile became even brighter, which you didn't know was even possible. She practically jumped on you,almost making you fall.

"I love you" She whispered,quietly so that only you would hear. 

"Love you too,plum" 

Kyo - Cat

"What the hell is that thing?" 

"It's a keychain" You answered sarcastically.

"I know that but why does it have to be a cat" You could already see that his face was bright red,it was so easy to make him flustered. When you took a step forward and he stepped back,when his back hit the wall you put both your hands on either side of him. 

“Because I love you”

“Don’t say stuff like that” You leaned in to whisper

“And so that everyone knows I’m yours” His face somehow got even more red and he quickly pushed you away to run out. It really was too easy to make him flustered. 

The next day as you were walking home you noticed a keychain on Kyo’s bag. It was a small cat who’s fur matched your hair color.

Yuki - Rat

"Where,where could it go?" You had already looked through several classrooms,but couldn’t find your keychain. You had no idea where you could’ve dropped it,but you didn’t wanna leave before you found it. You were walking through the halls when Yuki walked up to you.

“There you are,I’ve been looking for you”

“Is there something wrong?”

“I was gonna ask you that,I’ve been waiting for you so we could go home” You were so focused that you completely forgot that you promised to help him with his garden.

“I’m so sorry”

“Are you alright?” He put his hand on your cheek. “What are you looking for?” You sighed.

“I lost my keychain” You confessed before quickly adding. “But it’s not that important,let’s go” You grabbed his hand and started walking out.

“Say was that keychain a small gray rat?” You stopped and turned to face him.

“How did you know that?” He opened his hand to reveal the keychain. “You found it?”

“I thought it was yours,but I couldn’t find you until now” You attached it back onto your bag,and kissed his cheek.

“Thank you,my prince” Instantly his face was bright red and you were scared for a moment that he might transform,but thankfully he didn’t. 

“You're Welcome” 

Hatsuharu - Cow/Ox

For some reason Haru was in a great mood,he hadn’t snapped or even gotten close. Kyo was trying but he was unsuccessful,which made everyone confused. Even you couldn't figure out why he was in a good mood. It was lunchtime and you were relaxing on the roof. You had your back to the wall while Hatsuharu was laying down with his head in your lap,you were running your fingers through his hair. 

"What's got you in such a good mood?" You finally asked,he smirked as he opened one of his eyes.

"I saw your keychain, '' he said before closing his eyes again. If you knew he'd be so calm and happy about it you would've shown it to him,instead of not saying anything.

"I'm happy you liked it. There’s actually one more thing” You brushed your hair back,showing off your earrings. Which were a pair of round white circles with black non uniform dots. He sat up and kissed you.

“Have you been wearing this all the time?”

“Yeah,you just never noticed” You laughed and leaned in to kiss him again. “I love you”

“I love you too”

Momiji - Rabbit 

“Y/N” Momiji was running through the school,yelling your name. 

“Hey Momiji slow down,you could get hurt” You brushed his hair away and kissed his forehead. He stopped in front of you.

“Y/N look what I found” He handed you a paper bag. Inside the bag there were two matching bunny keychains. You picked up one of them by the ring and took a closer look. The keychains had your names on them.

“Momiji these are so cute,thank you”

“Promise me you’ll carry them with you all the time” 

“Promise” You clipped the keychain onto your bag.

The door slid open as the person went inside the door, they stood in front of the class as everyone was in shock. "Hello everyone, I'm [Name] Han." They said as everyone was yelling and asking questions after seeing Jaeha Han sibling in front of them.

"Why is Jaeha Han sibling here?!"

"What the hell?!?!"

"Why are they here?!"

Suhyeon sighed as he knew this would happen. "Everyone shut up!" Everyone shut their mouth and sat down as Suhyeon sighed. "Yes, [Name] is joining us staring today. So please, treat them with respect." Suhyeon said as the others nodded as [Name] was told to seat beside Haru.

They sat down beside the maroon haired male as it was quiet with Suhyeon continuing to talk about territory and stuff, [Name] only looked down at their table while Haru was bored just listening in the meeting.

So after many hours, the meeting was finally over and as [Name] stood up they were greeted with Haru face and felt something thumping loudly against their chest and felt their face warm up.

"Huh?"

"Marry me!"

Everyone who was left in the room was in shock at what they saw and heard, Haru face turned red and his eyes widened.

"EH?!?!?!?!"

And that was the faithful day of these two encounter, it was love at first sight for [Name] the moment they laid eyes on Haru. Almost everyone was teasing Haru for it, which Haru was annoyed at all the teasing form the others.

He wasn't really annoyed by [Name] since it wasn't all the time, just happens sometimes but not to the point of annoying.

But enough of that.

Haru sighed as he leaned down on the desk as his mind was bothered with something these past few days, nobody really seemed to notice since he was quiet all the time but it seems like [Name] was the only one who noticed it since they confronted Haru about it.

"Haru..."

The said male looked up from the desk and saw [Name] standing in front of them. "Is something bother-"

"No! Nothing has been bothering!" He said as he stood up quickly and ran out of the room so fast, the others watched as a trail of dust was left behind. [Name] tilted their head as they wondered on what was wrong with Haru.

They were worried for Haru and wanted to know about to help them, as a worried friend of course.

While with Haru, his heart was thumping against his chest as his face was warm. It felt like his heart was thumping out of his chest, it was beating so loud that Haru thought everyone would hear because of how loud it is. He slid down on the wall as he was confused with his feelings.

Towards a certain person named [Name] Han, he didn't think that he would be falling over heels over them, It was frustrating to say the least. He can't understand on why it has to be him, just because [Name] has been interested in him.

He sighed, he doesn't know what to anymore and it's not like he can tell anyone about this. They'll surely tease about him and try to expose him to [Name], he covered his face as he screamed into it. It was so frustrating, he desperately wants to tell someone about it but he can't.

It's already obvious that Suhyeon and Kuja aren't good options, Jihyeok is not a good option either neither is the other one and defiantly not Hajun, that man does not know romance one bit. He sighed, to be honest no one around him could help him with his love problem so it was useless to ask anyone around him.

Considering there was one thing in everyone's mind and that was fighting, there was not one thing of romance in their mind especially Suhyeok who's got two girls clinging to him but he's too much of a oblivious fucker anyway.

He sighed and slid down and thought about his choices.

"E-Eh?"

[Name] looked at the blushing maroon haired male in surprise at what they had heard from him, they were too stunned to say anything else as their mind was processing on what Haru just said to them.

Earlier, [Name] had asked Haru out on a date as a joke. Knowing Haru would just refuse them but moments after that, Haru had approached them and asked them about the date that [Name] had jokingly said earlier and wanted to go with them.

So, [Name] was kinda surprise and didn't expect that from Haru.

"W-Well?"

[Name] snapped out of it and nodded their head while looking down, a bit flustered at what was going to happen right now. Haru sighed and walked away while still feeling flustered on what he just did.

Haru didn't believe that he just asked [Name] about that date but then again, he wanted this. Haru was sure of it.

And so, he was currently panicking on what to wear on their date. Haru was nervous and just wanted to impress [Name] so he decided to be just original and dress up in his own way. So he took out the usual clothing that he would usually wear and walked out of his house.

Haru walked to where the they would agree to meet up and saw [Name] leaning by the pole, on their phone. Haru walked up to them.

"[Name]?"

[Name] looked away from their phone and blushed after seeing Haru, he was wearing a peach colored sweater with milky blue shirt underneath and some black pants and his hair was let down like usual with the hairband on it.

"What are you staring at for?"

"N-Nothing, you just look really pretty Haru." [Name] said as Haru blushed. "Well, we should get going now." They said as they took Haru's hand which made Haru flushed red as they walked towards their destination.

The two were going on a date on a festival by the sea, it has been popular these past few days, they arrived at the area and was greeted the bustling cheers of people who had come to the festival.

"S-So... is there something you want to do Haru?" They asked as Haru looked around. "Maybe we should walk around and then decided on what to do.." He said as [Name] nodded, they walked toward everywhere on the festival.

[Name] felt their heart beating against their chest, they just couldn't believe it that they were going on a date with Haru right now. They wanted to pinch themselves to check if it was all a dream but it wasn't, this was reality right now.

A moments later, a thug on [Name] arm made them stop as they looked behind them and saw Haru pointing at something. "We should ride that...." He said as [Name] looked to where Haru was pointing at and saw dropper. "Sure, let's go." They said as they walked over to the ride and went behind the line.

After awhile, they were next so the two sat next to each other as Haru was excited while [Name] was nervous to say the least. They were deathly afraid of heights but didn't have the heart to tell Haru about it since they didn't want to disappoint or make Haru said.

So, they were sweating and shaking a bit which Haru noticed. "Are you alright [Name]?" He asked as [Name] looked at him and nodded their head. "Yup! I am fine! Just a little nervous." [Name] said as Haru raise an eyebrow, not convinced that they were okay.

"Are... are you afraid of heights?"

"W-What? N-No, of cour-course!" They said as Haru sighed and held their hand which made [Name] flustered at the action. "Don't lie... you can grip on my hand later on." Haru said as tiny blush was on his face.

"Ar-Are you suUUUUURRREEEE!!!"

[Name] was cut off when the drop down, they didn't even notice earlier that the ride was slowly going up since they were so focused on calming themselves down.

Haru screamed out of joy while [Name] was the opposite, they tighten their grip on Haru's hand to calm themselves down.

"You alright?"

"Yeah... just woozy..." They said as the two were now sitting at the bench after the ride, Haru softly patted their back. "We should go and eat now, it's 7 PM..." Haru said as [Name] nodded.

"We should... what do you want to eat?" They asked as Haru looked around. "Hmm... I don't know. All of the food looks delicious, how about we take a stroll? Maybe we can a find a great spot?" Haru offered as [Name] nodded.

The two then walked around the area, looking a for a place or stall to eat dinner but then the two encountered a stall, they sat down as they ordered their food. It was quiet for the both of them, the two of them didn't know what to say to each other.

"Um... [Name]..."

"Yeah...?"

"I... never mind..."

[Name] raise an eyebrow at Haru's behavior and was wondering on what Haru was going to say or ask, they continued to wait for their food in quiet and then it arrived.

They ate their food away and after they finished, they decided to stay a bit longer. They bought some cotton candy, a candy apple. but then they started to walk along by the beach.

They were some people walking around as well and laying down and just looking by the ocean, it was quiet between the two. They had no idea what to talk about like last time but there was something that has been bothering Haru's mind since the beginning.

[Name] scratched the back of their neck as they looked the candy apple in hand and twirled it around the tip of their fingertips, they looked around and was about to open their mouth to talk to Haru so that it won't be awkward but Haru beat them to it.

"Say [Name]...."

"Yes!"

They said loudly catching other people's attention, [Name[ apologize as they looked back at the maroon haired male. "What is it...?" They asked as Haru sighed as he stopped walking making the other one stop as well.

"W... is there something that made you like me? What made you like me in the first place? You're not toying with me aren't you?"

[Name] blinked rapidly at Haru's question, they didn't expect that at all. They looked down on the ground and thought about it for awhile making Haru nervous as he started to fiddle with his fingers, [Name] then looked back at the male.

"I don't know... something just captivated me to you when I first saw you." [Name] said surprising Haru at their answer to his question, as they had a small smile on their face while still looking down at the ground. "I guess it was your beauty that captivated me at first but then after awhile, it was your personality. Something about you... is captivating." They said as Haru blushed heavily at what they had said.

"Hu-Huh?! What?! Just by that reason?!" Haru said turning around making [Name] miss Haru reaction at what they just had said to him. "A-Are you ma-"

"Of course not! Idiot!"

He said running off making [Name] stunned but they swore that they saw his ear burning red, they chuckled and ran after Haru.

"Wait up Haru!"

"Just catch up you idiot!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Stop laughing!"

"Can't help it!"
