Alhaitham

Agony. Pure agony gnawed somewhere within Alhaitham’s unbelievably still human heart. It throbbed with want and ached for your attention, but you simply weren’t a mind reader (or maybe you were, but somehow magically, you suddenly couldn’t read his pain at the moment). His eyes narrowed as you conversed with the juniors that sought you out from left to right — you were an alumni in Akademiya of course, a popular one at that and as the professors sang your praises, the scholars couldn’t help but take chance.

You were far more approachable than the current scribe after all. It’s only logical that the students would flock you and that alone could barely get a rise out of him. However, this one calls for a special circumstance — an outlier, if you will.

And as his gaze burned at the sight, he still couldn’t fathom how you couldn’t feel his silent wanting, he’d even dare as to say he was brooding at this point, deprived of your attention that you often promised he has.

All because of a previous classmate of yours.

You felt it alright, the uncomfortable heavy feeling at the back of your head. And you’re wont to the realization that it may have been your dearly beloved Alhaitham, him and his impatience growing by the second. And you could feel the exasperation that brewed inside him, boiling like a dormant magma suddenly growing active, but there was a little devil on your shoulder, urging you to be a little bit more mean to him, and continued to talk to Tighnari.

Your companion wasn’t any dumber, in fact, he was the first one to feel the heated stare directed in your direction. And while he expressed his adamance in leaving to cease the Akademiya lunatic’s jealousy, the knowing mirth in your eyes asked him to stay a little longer. To aid you in your little game.

“You ought to pay attention to him,” the forest ranger laughed a little, feeling the tiniest bit of pity towards the infamous coolheaded scribe, now left at your mercy. Tighnari, being one of your best mates in your years in Akademiya also had to succumb into your ruthlessness. Truly, you and Alhaitham were a match made in abyss for putting up with each other’s antics. “I could already feel my spine crawling with dread.”

“Indulge me with just a few more minutes, my good friend. I did truly miss you after all — what with my work often moving and you barely coming in the city when I am home,” you laughed a little and Tighnari only shot you a disapproving look at your stalling.

“Come and visit then. If I remember right, you promised Collei some trinkets from your trip in Mondstadt.”

“Yeah, yeah.” You waved at Tighnari as the hybrid finally left your clutches with an equally mediocre enthusiasm. And finally, you spun on your heel, excusing yourself for awhile from the scholars who were most likely hoping to hold an audience with you.

You walked back to the secluded area, far from the prying eyes (though you didn’t mind if there were onlookers, a little humiliation is always fun). Alhaitham’s eyes were trained back on the book, though you figured his attention was miles away from the texts and still is fixated on your presence.

Sliding the books out of Alhaitham’s way, you finally sat on the table and gently grabbed his chin, a soft gaze from you was all it took for the man to melt. He subtly leaned into your touch and you relished in the fact as he breathed in the scent of cologne that you would always dab on your wrist, inhaling your scent like a drug, “You needn’t be so jealous, love. I’m always here and I could never betray your trust. To simply do so would be the death of me.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Oh? Is that so? I must be projecting then. Perhaps because of that one little girl that thought you were up for grabs.” Your words had Alhaitham immediately stiffening under your touch as he finally abandoned the book, hands grabbing onto your thighs so tightly — a silent apology that he somehow forgot.

But you yearned for a verbal apology, you wanted to hear the remorse in his voice even if you had to pull it out of him in sobs and soft moans. Alas, you were much too impatient as your hand on his chin shifted, now grasping his cheeks and squishing them together.

Through his forced puckered lips, he mumbled out a muffled apology, “M’s’rry…”

A laugh tore away from your throat, “I know you are.” You leaned down, pressing a kiss to those soft lips of his before dauntingly sticking out your tongue and giving a rather carnal lick afterwards, effectively wetting his lips.

Your vice grip in his cheeks was nothing against his quiet whimper of plea as you devoured his still puckered lips with your fervent licks and mildly aggressive nips, uncaring whether or not the skin of his lips broke and bled. And even then, Alhaitham was sure you absolutely enjoyed the taste of the metallic iron as long as it was his. And nothing could get him going more knowing that despite the toying you did with him, the way you seemed mean at times and absolutely refused to acknowledge him, you were wrapped around his finger.

A soft groan left your lips when he squeezed your thighs with much force — and while that could have been a cue for something else entirely, you had enough awareness not to take him there and then and opted to pull away with a conniving grin.

Quiet pants left Alhaitham’s lightly swollen lips, completely red and absolutely drenched in your saliva. You only gave him one more smile before reaching out to wipe away the drooling mess you’ve made on your beloved scribe.

“Thank you for that quick snack break. I ought to entertain more research questions. The Amurta scholars these days are so jovial! It gets my heart pumping to see their cute eager faces. I’ll see you later, love.”

And this time, Alhaitham let you go with little to no protest, feeling that he himself was also fulfilled for the moment.

𐂂

Ayato

Impatience flooded through Ayato’s system as he continued to keep up the facade in front of the other commissioners. He was far from an exquisite mood as he continued to listen to the ludicrous suggestions of his fellow politicians. He has seen children pitch better ideas on how to catch a tanuki when he walked the streets of Inazuma City with you a couple of days before.

And speaking of which, you were the love hidden behind closed doors. The darling jewel of the Kamisato clan — a nobleman from the faraway lands of your proud nation. Only Celestia knows how such an important figure such as yourself ended up in the doorstep of the Kamisato household. But only his sister and trusted keeper would know how a prolific man such as Ayato end up in your strong and caring arms.

The thought of you suddenly had Ayato feeling weak in the knees, doing who knows what — and he dreaded to see you lonely, and in desperate need of company. Ayaka was often out and about, handling the surface affairs, and Thoma was much too busy with the upkeep of the teashop when he’s not in duty as a housekeeper and your companion. He dreaded the thought of you emerging from the household and suddenly being seen by the rest without his approval — his secret love.

He bore through the absolutely god-awful meeting with the mere thought of you keeping him sane through this absolutely maddening (important) boredom.

While Ayato was preoccupied with unrestrained concern for your wellbeing, you weren’t all too bothered with being left in the deafening silence of the Kamisato household; as a matter of fact, you reveled in the tranquility your beloved’s home have offered you. You took care of everything like a good spouse, taking off some labor from Thoma and even learned a few hobbies you can teach Ayaka.

You were much too independent to be helpless. You liked to move and surprise people with the extent of your prowess. It was enticing to see their surprised reactions, throwing people off guard was a pastime you could never hope to give up.

Perhaps it was why you loved Ayato all the more. His reaction could never be beaten by any other person. Especially when it dawned on him that he too can be outsmarted and overpowered, to be underneath someone and to feel what it’s like to relinquish control. Not politically though, you could never take that from him. Otherwise, he’s all in your hands.

And none was all different when Ayato finally arrived home, a breathtaking yet cheeky smile plastered on his flawless face. His voice reverberated through the house as he entered, laced with eagerness as he stepped on the tatami floors as he made his way to where you are. And unsurprisingly, you were by the engawa, indulging the serenity of the place.

“Welcome home, lovely,” your voice already had him growing weak, almost missing a step as he sat behind you, arms already lacing around your sturdy shoulders. He inhaled your scent fresh and sweet, only fueling his intoxication. “How was work?”

“Long and tiring. I abhorred the time wasted not being with you,” you could feel Ayato‘s pout against the nape of your neck and laughed. You indulged him and his nuzzling against your skin, letting him go through all kinds of euphoria. You licked up every single attention he gave you and Ayato was no different as he continued to take advantage of what little control he has in this moment.

“It’s not all so bad. It‘s not like I’m going anywhere.” Your words quickly reeled Ayato in as desperation seeped through his veins — a desperation for you to make good on your promise and to never, ever break it. Hah. Like you were even foolish enough to do so. “I should hope that I can hold you on the same promise?”

Your tone made it out a suggestion but Ayato shivered at the thinly veiled threat — knowing that he can’t escape your grasp ever. That he’s shackled so lovingly within you; a promise of raw love that only you and him can enjoy and no one else. Of course, he wouldn’t have it any other way. He submitted into your touch as you turned around and swiftly pulled him into your lap.

“Absolutely ravishing,” Ayato’s breath hitched at your compliment. He’s heard people sing their praise to him in a hundred words, but all you had to do was speak and he’s already so, so weak, completely under your mercy. His hands made its way to your shoulders to gain some grounding, a footing in this world with all the haze your words injected into his mind.

Ayato’s smile was lazy, eyes half-lidded as he leaned in to steal a kiss you’ve been cruelly depriving him of since his arrival, and you were quick to reciprocate. He almost fell out of your lap when your hands gripped his hips tightly, oh so possessively, and he could only imagine the marks you’d leave if he wasn’t wearing his layered uniform at work.

Pulling away from the kiss, he left one more peck, “You’re doing my head in, y’know? Take some responsibility.”

You wouldn’t have been Ayato’s beloved if you did otherwise.

The wooden floorboards creaked as you shifted, rocking forward further with a hand on the back of Ayato’s head as you laid him down. Ayato had to stifle a quiet whine as your lips found themselves attached on his chin, considering that his clothes left so little room for an opening in his neck. He quivered as your lips moved further up, just on the side of his bottom lip where his beauty mark was. Archons, he’s never felt so defenseless as he did with you.

Alas, you were a tease and soon left him alone as you sat up, his legs immediately wrapping around your waist to pull you back in as he flashed you a sly grin, “What say we bless the stars tonight with a show?”

You scoffed with a smile, “No, thank you. I’d get jealous.”

The Yashiro commissioner was purring in delight.

𐂂

Diluc

Reluctance was a feeling that Diluc should have expected and prepared for, only for him to do the exact opposite of it. Instead, he was blindsided and only has himself to blame. Though, quite frankly, he’d rather have you take responsibility instead.

He was never one for conversations and actively avoided them as much as possible unless it was a talk about business. Diluc could never find himself engage into a mindless chatter, and often kept to himself. Though, granted he has the traveler to thank for keeping him company and prying him open at times, but other than that, his interactions with people are limited to the staff of his winery and the tavern, sometimes with Kaeya, and on certain nights when he’s bartending, he’d make the effort to speak to kick out a drunkard bard out of the tavern.

All of that however boiled down into nothing in comparison to the hurricane that was you. None of his experiences (if one could even call it that) could have prepared him for the situations that you would put him in. They were so unbearable, and often times it leaves him completely exasperated at your antics.

But even so, he’s willing to bear it all if it meant he could be with you. Diluc would go through the most compromising positions you would put him in if it meant he could gain even an inkling of approval from you. And it may just be his brain trying to comfort him, but he does feel significantly more lax in the company of others ever since you became a part of his peaceful life.

All of a sudden, he’s holding up better in mundane talks and people noticed. The patrons of his tavern were all flabbergasted to see that the air around Diluc has cleared and that it doesn’t feel like a chore to him to even talk to them. Even the traveler and their emergency food noticed that there was a different feel to Diluc upon their return to Mondstadt to fulfill some commissions. Adelinde could not be any prouder for her master as he indulged those small talks.

If only she knew why.

Case in point — Diluc has gotten better in socializing because of you. Only because anything seems far easier than being subjected into your shameless cruelty.

A quiet wail left the Darknight hero’s quivering lips as his back collided against the walls of your shared bedroom. The hurricane that ruthlessly terrorized his otherwise peaceful and dull life was you — relentless and absolutely merciless. All logic from his mind slowly went down the drain as you ruthlessly devoured him, like a lion forced into fasting feeding on a gazelle; you went in for the kill.

Your lips left no room in his neck as you enjoyed your feast. Much like that ridiculously gruesome analogy, you were just as deprived, forced into being a good partner for your beloved Diluc as he went on with a week filled with nothing but conducting business for the winery as well as doing his duties as the protector of Mondstadt while its occupants fall into a collective slumber.

Not like you were any better though — you were also just as busy, collecting research samples for your investigative partner, Albedo. And all of that resulted into missed quality times, as you were often away before Diluc could wake up and you were already asleep before he could come home. It was ridiculous.

But freedom was a theme that Mondstadt upheld and suddenly, there was free time. A sliver of chance where Diluc came home earlier and you went home a little later, only crossing paths on the way to the winery. And all that eventually led to your ferocious and undeterred expression of love.

Diluc could already see the glimmering stars as he tilted his head up to leave more room in his neck, eyes screwed shut to keep his mind off of the embarrassing position he’s in — held up against the wall by you, barely supported by anything but the wall behind him and your hands that gripped on his thighs when you lifted his legs up.

“Have you any idea how much I’ve longed for a chance to even breathe you in?” Your harmless growl against the skin of his neck was enough to send him into a spiral of embarrassment and pride. He never had much chance to feel someone’s incredible want for him until the day you came along and Diluc soon found that this was a feeling he could never let go of.

Alas, your question, rhetoric or not, was left unanswered when all of the experience he’s had in conversing with others left his pretty little mind. Just the feeling of your possessive hands grip onto his skin so tightly had him forgetting the every alphabet in Teyvat’s language. Short ragged breathing left Diluc’s lips and he finally opened his eyes when he felt you pull away, granting his neck to see the light.

Vicious and angry marks are bound to decorate his skin by the looks of it and he was no better than you — completely drowned in excitement and thrill.

You could see the wanton need in his eyes, now completely glossed over with a haze that looks all too familiar, you could even say that the feeling’s an old friend of yours — what with you being completely insatiable. That is until Diluc came into your peripherals and suddenly you had the urge to drag him where you are; and ever the pliant gentleman this man is, he quickly caved, only to realize just how ruthless you are.

Even so, it’s not completely unwelcome. Diluc’s mind muses as you dove back in, this time with an urge to leave him breathless for a much different reason.

𐂂

Itto

Excitement was not so much of a stranger in the company of Itto. He was always so exuberant, even to the point of it placing him in trouble under the Tenryou commission. And while the gang cheered him on (other than the reliable and trustworthy Shinobu), it still is, at the end of the day, nothing but trouble.

However, beyond that, the only thing that Itto could get consumed in excitement without getting in trouble are his ramblings about you. To say that he was your biggest fan would be an understatement, and just when people have started to think that no one could be prouder of Arataki Itto than himself, the moment your name leaves his mouth, no one else is escaping the plethora of praises he has for you.

You were his pride and joy and to be able to have you as his was nothing short of a miracle — well, not so much, considering that surely no one can resist Itto’s irresistible charms. And as he boasted about you and how you were all over him, people can only accept the fate they subjected themselves into. The usual victims of his rambling could just as easily ace a test that was all about you. People knew of the things you favored and the ones that didn’t, the things that can get you to stop doing what you are doing just to indulge yourself.

And you let them. You figured there was no harm done in Itto blabbing away who you are. Really, people knew you but you rarely ever showed yourself around them, being one of the work types in contrast to your partner’s easy going life. And besides, it was nothing short of amusing to see people’s faces when they finally catch a glimpse of the Itto’s priceless jewel that is you and you’d often hear people comment offhandedly about Itto’s words not even doing you justice.

You enjoyed those moments — the praises that you hear from left to right were welcomed with a captivating and grateful smile from yours.

But all that pales in comparison to the feeling you get when you praise your beloved, watching him completely fall apart in your arms as your honeyed whispers filled with promises of love and sin get him going.

“And then I managed to pick the biggest onikabuto! And when I got to duel I almost won!” Itto faltered a little as the realization dawned on him that it was yet another loss in his books. Fortunately, he quickly recovered, “N-Not that I didn’t lose because I suck! I let those kids have a taste of victory!”

“Hoh? Like before?” You entertained Itto’s whims as you continued to cut slices into the apples that his gang had managed to procure on their adventuring in the outskirts of Inazuma. “How generous. I could only hope to see the glee in those children’s eyes.”

Itto jumped up from his seat and headed over to you, arms snaking around your hips with his chin resting on your shoulder. You picked up a slice and fed it to the oni, who so gladly obliged your little act of service. In any case, someone could mistake the dynamics of your relationship with someone if they were to see just how docile you are and how well-behaved Itto seems to be.

But much like your job, you liked to work behind closed doors and you were far more appreciative with your own work when it’s only seen by your own eyes.

You swiftly turned around, still encased with Itto’s strong arms with an apple in hand. But such an innocent gesture can only be deciphered as deceiving, especially with the way your eyes glinted. It was dangerous and sharp, on the prowl like a hungry predator, and in this case, Itto was always subjected into the role of a prey. Still, with Itto’s lack of awareness, he can only give you a beaming smile, so filled with sweet innocence and… stupidity. Something you can appreciate more as this man’s sole corruptor.

“Just hearing you being such a nice oni to those children…” your voice shifted and even with Itto’s constant naïveté, he can hear the seductive danger behind your words. “You must’ve been a very good boy, huh?”

He quickly perked up, unable to resist your words. He almost felt his knees buckle — and he would’ve given out had you not been holding him up well. Wait, since when were you the one in charge? He was the one who had a grip on you earlier.

Without even so much of an effort, you spun him around, now the one trapped between the kitchen counter and your body. It must’ve been the Inazuman summer heat that suddenly set him ablaze — you flashed him a small smile that he could never recover from, so approving yet so domineering; all Itto could think about now is how he can draw out more praises from your sweet lips.

Lucky for him, you feeling relatively charitable that day. You brought up the apple slice against his lips, prying them open and watched with amusement as he opened his mouth willingly, obedient and pliant, like a dog. You leaned in, attaching your lips to the apple halfway through his bite and gazed at him, sultry and still so collected. Itto could only swallow dryly at the proximity and— oh, since when did you have such a vice grip on his bare waist?

Itto could feel himself squirm a little and look away, and you followed, not even letting him get a breathing room. You nudged the apple slice into his mouth still with that small smile that hid a lot of harmless malice, taking delight in the oni’s sudden subservience.

“What a good oni you are,” you repeated and Itto could do nothing but absorb every praise you’d give. “My good boy.”

He’s been such a good boy, right? Rarely any jail time for him. Surely you can reward him with something more palpable?

𐂂

Kaeya

Remorse was something Kaeya thought he would feel the moment he kisses his bachelor life goodbye. Admittedly, the situation with getting in a relationship with was a very rocky path he took on. It was a mess and even Kaeya could not smooth talk his way out of that kind of argument. It was an unhealthy push and pull, he wanted you so bad was much too terrified. He has other commitments and he has a mission to carry on his back.

But ever the benevolent person you are, you managed to put up with the highs and the lows of the infamous cavalry captain, letting him off to disappear for days only to come back in your arms, looking like a kicked puppy. Somehow you knew that even with his emotional availability, his constant flirting with others, you knew that even without the promise of his commitment, he would always, always come back to you.

And each time, you would receive him happily in your arms.

The moment that finally, Kaeya was somehow able to comfort or gaslight himself into thinking that a commitment to the real thing was miles better than him having to spend time with strangers, pretending that it was you underneath him. And boy was it a treat.

What Kaeya thought would be something he would entirely regret, turned into something far better (or worse) for him. You were the epitome of the alcohol he would spend mora on, the intoxicating heat that gets him all too feverish. You kept up with him like you did back when he would push and pull against you. His teasings quickly shut down by your quick mouth and sharp wit.

But he didn’t expect the way you were instantly able to subvert his expectations the night he decided to finally bed you. You took him with the dominance that he was sure rifthounds would cower from and he had to risk a day of being late in his position for the very first time in his otherwise clean career.

Within the few months, you’ve managed to embed yourself into his life like a poison, further dragging him down into something he can only see getting close to what seems to be an obsession. He was, by all means, addicted to your touch, the way you leave him breathless, and the way that absolutely no one knows the things you can do behind that innocent smile. Because you were a homemaker, the kind of person parents would recommend their sons and daughters to get married to.

It really was always the quiet ones.

However, you did not come without any risk. Kaeya was an important figure in Mondstadt, and more or less, he worried about your safety. Though it was not the usual safety issues that he has to deal with. Homemaker or not, he knew you can hold on your own with your vision. Though it was more on the fact that he had to keep the relationship a secret that you were in danger — as far as everyone was concerned, you were not taken.

And people sure did show their interest the moment you headed out to the tavern. He was supposed to have a quiet drink with you and enjoy your presence outside your lovely home for once.

“Oh, you absolute charmer!” One of the women by your side laughed loudly. She gave you a playful shove, and as someone who has been the one to receive and give such a tactic, Kaeya already knew her intentions with you. “It’s honestly a miracle of sorts that you’re still unwed!”

Kaeya had to intervene before any of the you-deprived people made a move. He entered the space and everyone parted out of respect. You only gave him a beaming smile that left him invigorated, “Ah! Captain Kaeya! What an honor!”

“Hoho~ the fabled Mondstadt’s homemaker heading out for drinks? How fascinating. Care to have a drink with me? I have much to ask of you.” It was a silent plea behind his words, and you weren’t always so mean to him hence your obedience, letting him lead you up into the far less populated second floor.

“Have you learned that there’s a way to see how well someone can kiss?” You were quick to bring up and Kaeya just had to know. He pulled you in by the waist, knowing that he’s safe from the prying eyes (and even if there were, he wouldn’t mind them seeing).

“Oh is that so? Pray tell what that might be, hm?”

“Apparently if you can tie a cherry step into a knot, it means that you’re an expert at it! And,” you paused, a hand digging into your pocket as you showed Kaeya what seems to be knotted stem, “Looks like I passed the test?”

Kaeya and his teasing nature couldn’t help but prod further, “Hoh? But shouldn’t I be the judge of that? Not some stem. Matter of fact, did you just do that to prove yourself… or to impress others?”

A mischievous mirth lit up in your eyes that usually gleamed of innocence and Kaeya was over the moon at hitting the jackpot. You wasted no second as you bent down, one knee already pressing up against his lower region and he had to stifle a quiet groan at the sensation. Truly, the grip you had in him was absolutely maddening.

With a grin, you tilted his head up, adoring the way his eye closed in anticipation. And to his surprise, he could only feel something rub up against his closed eye, as you gave it a generous lick, like a dog oh so happy to see his owner. But Kaeya had to wonder… just who was the owner in this relationship… surely even with the way you’re acting you would know…

You gave him a peck on the lips and Kaeya almost lost it when he could smell his favorite wine on you, “I may have to control myself for now, dearest. While it thrills me so, I believe you have a reputation to uphold.”

Kaeya could care less now, with eyes clouded with lust, he could only tug into your trousers with a lazy smirk, “Are you certain about that?”

The look in your hungry eyes said no.

𐂂

Tartaglia

Cruel — other than his loving family back in Snezhnaya, that was what people would initially regard him as if they were to know of his status as the eleventh harbinger of the Fatui. Should people look past his boyish charms and friendly smile, they would’ve known how utterly devious Childe could be. And that was something he took pride on, he loved the fear he instilled in his enemies and his time down in abyss only further exacerbated the carnal urge to come out on top.

He has his reasons though — considering that he was the youngest among the lineup of the Tsarita’s harbingers. He has to prove his spot, and if being merciless was the way to go through it all, then he would gladly do so with little to no complaints.

Alas, he was a competitive fellow too. Almost everything is a challenge to him; one he would take on with gusto and flawlessness; essentially what his trademark is meant to be. But even he was sure that he could not compare to the likes of you.

Especially in cruelty.

His very endeared partner, you, hailing from nowhere, you suddenly became a sought after figure under the Cryo Archon’s kingdom. Admiration could not even come close to Childe’s feelings whenever you would grant him a few seconds of your time to show up. But now that he has you as his beloved sweetheart, none could pry him away from you. And admittedly, he even became far more hesitant in heeding the Tsarita’s orders should he be parted from you on missions.

He says you’re his sweetheart, but even Childe knows better. It was you who turned him into a subservient sweetheart, pliant and soft under your mean gaze, almost begging to be around you for even just one second. And you were sure that he’d have gone mad in ecstasy if you starved him with only your blood to offer for his sustenance. Hence the ecstatic look on your beloved harbinger was nothing short of adorable when the Tsarita had let you accompany him to Liyue.

However, your cruelty knows no bounds; and Childe learned that the hard way.

Or perhaps, he was still learning as he watched you completely ignore him since your arrival in Liyue, opting to dote on his subordinates instead, which greatly infuriated him beyond reason. You promised! You promised that only he could have your attention within your stay, and that you would make up for the time he headed back home only to hear that you were in Fontaine, holding an audience with the Chief Justice of the nation. But you weren’t making good on it in the slightest bit.

If only he knew that your cruelty was a process to be had. That your cruelty in itself was a form of sickening kindness, a way for him to need you more, to realize that he can’t have it any better after you… not like there was ever a need to convince him anyway.

And as the night finally fell, a moody Childe faced you as soon as you returned home from your little outing with the Liyue Qixing (whom you’ve made a promise to have a deal with in the near future). There was a cute pout in his lovely face and you couldn’t help but huff out a laugh in amusement, watching his normally blank eyes emit such ferocious jealousy.

“Careful dear, any more of that and you’ll be having wrinkles.” Your laugh was quick to pull him out of his brooding, finding it hard to stay mad now that finally, you were talking to him.

Childe felt like a child deprived of any form of love as he made a mad dash towards you who barely left the doorway and engulfed you in a hug, tight and absolutely refused to let go. If he were only more aware, he would’ve seen the pleased devious smile on your face before prying him away from you, resorting into a disapproving frown from your partner.

“You owe me this much, y’know? You—” Not even before he could make his proper argument, Childe already found himself getting pulled back in, a grip around his waist with one arm while the other caressed his cheek.

“I owe you?” Your mirthless laugh sends shivers down his spine and as your gloved hands linger down from his cheek down to the skin of his neck, Childe could only whimper in a poorly concealed excitement. “Dear, I owe you absolutely nothing.” You spat and the harbinger took it with open arms.

He was quick to be reduced into a speechless man as your eyes switched from something loving to something far more dangerous and addicting. Childe could feel himself stiffen in anticipation as your fingers lingered around his neck, tracing his Adam’s apple with a thinly veiled threat.

“I owe you nothing, you lowly harbinger. In fact, I’d like to raise a complaint, yes?” His throat bobbed at your cruel look. “The one night we spent on the ship, it was in rather poor taste. Matter of fact, I despised it. You performed so poorly, I had to finish myself off with someone else.”

It was a lie you both knew, but the thought of you with someone else already had Childe gripping against the lapels of your suit, in complete desperation to prove himself once more. “N-No, wait, I can…”

Your sneer was thrilling as it was arousing for Childe, and the mere thought that this would be the determinant of his life with you that was hanging by a thread was enough to get him going. Childe wasted no time to press up against you, in need to do better than his less than stellar performance.

Your lips ghosted over his trembling ones with a smirk. You absolutely loved your little harbinger.

Thoma

Guilt flooded through Thoma’s heart as set his course on breaking another poor hopeful maiden’s heart. By all means, Thoma may be unassuming, but it was something already disproven by the many confessions he would receive on the daily. He was Inazuma’s fixer, and was quite popular around neighborhood, not only as the trusted keeper of the renonwed Kamisato siblings, but also as the reliable man that anyone could go to.

And who was anyone to argue? He really did know how to aid people, so much so that the prettiest maidens ought to take him for themselves, finding his abilities endearing, and that while he was no Kamisato, he still is one of the most attractive men in the nation. Often times he does find himself to be the butt of teasing from Ayato and the pitiful smiles that Ayaka would give him.

While one would think it shouldn’t even be that big of a deal, it was more of the fact that there was an existing reason for all of this turmoil. And that just happened to be his dearly beloved fiancé, you. Alas, Thoma never had the guts to tell most people about the love that you and him shared, but rest assured he was not trying to hide you. It’s more of the prejudiced notion of him being a mere housekeeper suddenly about to get married to an important figure like you in Teyvat.

People were conservative in their views, and rarely do they find it amusing when someone of high status hopes to get married to someone who is beneath them.

Thoma hated it so, but he was doing this more for you. He has heard of the extremes Ayato has to go through to keep the Kamisato name alive. And while you haven’t experienced the same thing, Thoma wasn’t going to be the first reason for you to suffer the same fate as his boss — hence his resignation to absolute secrecy.

You, however, did not mind. Sure, you were placed on a pedestal just because of your influence stretching across all nations, but even a small uproar about your marriage to Thoma was nothing in comparison to your gigantic business, in fact, your underground organization can quash any hushed whispers from every corner of this world. But you respected Thoma’s effort and found them quite endearing, him going through all those lengths just for your sake. Nothing could get you going more than an honest and loyal man like him.

What you didn’t appreciate however, was the scene before. You’ve officially arrived back home in Inazuma, dressed in your finest robes as you were hoping to surprise your beloved fiancé — only to be greeted with a less than pleasant sight of a woman nearly convulsing in embarrassment as she spilled her heart out to who was meant to be yours.

Thoma had to learn the hard way. You ought to teach him a lesson. And that was certainly a promise you would make good on.

Thoma’s house was nothing short of comfortable and cozy, far more humble than the grand castle that awaits him as soon as he marries you. And while the luxury it brought was absolutely divine, Thoma could only argue that his home is where you are. It didn’t matter where, as long as you were in it, Thoma can live in peace.

And nothing could justify the absolute happiness in Thoma’s once he saw you by the stove, cooking something. You… you were here! With him again! His home has finally returned.

Oh if only knew just how much guilt would pool in his little heart once you get on with the punishment.

Tiny gasps escaped from Thoma’s lips, quiet murmurs of pleas for you to slow down, to let him breathe and ask why the sudden aggression. He had never expected you to be so rough. Your presence could be intimidating (even to him in your first meet), but you were far more gentle than this beastly rendition of yourself.

Despite his begging, you heeded so little of his words and pursued even harder, fingers intertwining on the chain of his dog tag, where his engagement ring was. No wonder that woman didn’t take a hint.

“P-Please, dear— let me—!”

“Was this some kind of joke?” Thoma should be scared, he knows, but the way your lips pulled into a mean snarl had him squirming in a far more pleasurable way. He shrank under your gaze as you tugged into the ring. “You are my fiancé — and I was just about ready to forgive you for even entertaining that scag when I realized your ring wasn’t on your finger.”

Thoma’s eyes widened at your words. Never have you expressed such distaste and jealousy towards him before, sure, you were territorial, but at the very least you were not an unreasonably jealous partner. It only served as a surprise when he realized that he was barely fighting this side of you, finding himself pressing further into you, to appease you.

The sigh of disappointment that left your system was the straw that broke the camel’s back as he quickly threw his arms around your neck, pulling you close as he murmured his apologies. He couldn’t bear to see you like this and to see you so disappointed in him… he might as well leave this plane of existence.

However, you quickly dismissed his apologies, “Let me make it up to you dear,” you muttered against his neck, already ready to nip at his creamy skin. “I’ll make sure no one ever makes the mistake of approaching you ever.”

Needless to say, the angry bright red marks on his neck never left under your surveillance and vigorous reapplication until Thoma drills the fact that he was yours into his head for good.

𐂂

Zhongli

Submission is a concept that Zhongli as Morax could never hope to entertain. He was the domineering figure in Liyue, being its god and everything. His position towered over his fellow adepti and ruled over every being that stepped in his nation with an iron fist. Zhongli would even go as far as to admitting that he was a brute at times, resorting into bouts of possessiveness over what was his. Only that, he can blame on his dragon characteristics.

However among all the people that hailed him up until his death, there was one that he just couldn’t particularly figure out. That thing being you — a puzzle piece that he couldn’t figure out. You were the physical embodiment of the rock that trips any unfortunate mortal in their path.

There was just something with the way you held yourself with your decadent nature that was sure to allure people from left to right. You carried yourself so lightly with an air of innocence yet every move you made was no doubt calculated, precise, and hypnotically seductive, luring him in like a sweet poison.

And as the years went by, he had worked tirelessly to close the gap that you yourself have made him aware of. He found it utterly laughable — the fact that he, the one who lords over everyone, making a conscious effort to get close to you. In fact, he was even sure it was you that compelled him to do so, forcing him into your space like a vortex that only has the intention of drawing him in and swallowing him whole.

Truly, Morax was worth his salt — considering that he was correct about his assumptions.

Zhongli sat with you in the comfort of his favored restaurant, opening his eyes after relishing in the tea that was served only to see your unabashed staring. He lightly bristled, surprised at your undivided attention. Even with the times you and him have spent together, nothing could best that gaze of yours — something that Zhongli felt proud in holding the distinction of having. No one has ever seen you look at someone like the way you looked at him, and it was something that the former Geo Archon took pride in.

“Something on your mind, darling?” He asked, hoping to pry open those chaotic thoughts of yours.

Still with that cloying smile of yours that he so loved to look at you, reached a hand to thumb at the corner of his lips, “Just you.” You laughed as you felt him stiffen under your touch. Zhongli truly was a treat for you to indulge and one you can never let go of.

He was your precious little dragon, unknowingly obsessive and possessive and so painfully subservient under your touch. You so loved to toy with him most of the time, but even then, you couldn’t erase the fact that he has you wrapped around him just as much he does to you.

Zhongli could feel his breath hitch as your gentle hands slowly pried his mouth open, and he, without question abided. You were still an enigma to him, still completely unaware of how much you’ve trapped him within your hold, with no hopes of escaping (not like he has wanted to). And as your fingertips brushed against his soft lips, he was much too distracted when a carnal desire glinted through your eyes.

The former god had to thank the bustling busybodies of Liyue harbor for covering up the absolute debauchery you had subjected yourself and him into — by the small gap between shops, dark enough from the shadow in between, you had pushed Zhongli into it with a look of desire on your face.

It must’ve been because he sought you out and that he was used to being the one who has to keep up with you, but there was something so delicious in the way he always craved for your touch. You weren’t even so scarce with it either, as every time he demanded, you obliged. Oh how foolish he was to think that he was the one with control — unable to realize the mere fact that with every touch that leaves him breathless is a poison the continues to corrupt him from the inside out.

Suddenly, every touch of yours was not enough — that he needed so much more, and all of it can be proven with the way Zhongli had desperately pulled you into him. He was filled to the brim with the need and want and you did not withhold any of it.

He was left gasping as you fondled him through his work clothes, lips attached to his neck that left one too many marks.

“Darling, please…” his pleas came out in a form of a breathy whimper and you had to be cruel.

“Oh? Look at you, so absolutely ruined, my lord.” Your jabs went straight the heat that pooled into his stomach, suddenly taken aback by your sudden coyness. It was taking him back to all those centuries that past when you and him were young and stupid.

Zhongli gripped onto your shoulders, uncaring whether or not he too had wrinkled your suit. A pleading look flashed through his eyes, much to your elation. But you continued to toy with him, somehow after being spoiled rotten, even the wisest consultant of Liyue could not resist the feeling of impatience that painfully ate away at him.

“How do you think your other adepti friends would say at the sight of their dear old Morax… so pitifully in need of his beloved’s touch?” Your words sent shivers down to his spine. You just took away his demands for your touch and now you’re depriving him of the praises you would sing to him so sweetly every time? How cruel!

A whimper escaped from his trembling lips, “It’s not… it’s not pitiful…” He tries to fight and justify but even then he knew it was a futile attempt.

Your hands that gripped his waist tightened and he fought the urge to grant you that sweet delectable sound of pleasure out of revenge, “I find that very hard to believe.” You weren’t even trying as you drew out what you wanted from him with one more forceful squeeze against his supple flesh.

His head quickly fell into your shoulder and you can slowly see the disappearance of the feared warrior god as Zhongli begged for your touch, “Please… don’t deprive me of this… you’re all I need and have…”

A huff of amusement left your system as you tipped his head up by the chin, you leaned in, giving him one tiny peck that elicited yet another soft whine and licked his lips, watching them glisten with your saliva.

“Right you are dear… I’m all you have and that’s all you’ll ever need.”

[mako-neexu]

Aahh you read Death is the only ending for the villainess too!! I love the story and the artist's fate fanart they've done. Callisto actually resembles Gilgamesh to me sometimes though that just might be the coloring. However, an Obeguda death is the only ending au 👀👀...

SERIOUSLY!!!! I thought at first: "Why is Ou-sama here!?!?!?" XD wwwww But he's the best!!! Callisto is the best male lead ever!!!! I read the manhwa a few months ago but I just got back to it now and I have brainrot over it wwww

I loved your idea so I made mini fic!! TvT

I would have loved for Hakuno x Gil death is the only ending AU, but I'm not familiar with her yet ehehe. But I did my best with Obeguda!! Thank you for ask!! I didn't know anon likes both fgo and maybe villainess manhwa 😂🥰

Also the mini fic ended in yakudou trio moment hahaha XDD

-

Ritsuka knew something was wrong the moment their highnesses had entered the ballroom.

It was the crown prince who had always occupied the emperor’s seat, if only by proxy as he was said to be sickly according to the novel…

She knew who would be sitting on that damned massive chair. But as soon as she saw Tristan and Baobhan Sith by Morgan’s side-

She had a terrible hunch about a certain someone’s reaction.

Of course, of course. They wouldn’t invite the likes of him to the crown princess’ birthday party. Still, Morgan and her children should have known by now that nothing ever good comes out of angering him.

She cringed at the thought and decided to stay away from one of the people who would one-hundred-percent guarantee her death.

As fate would have it, the doors slammed wide open, the loud bang causing screams of shock and confusion to spread throughout the room.

Baobhan’s shriek was one that ripped through all of the noise, “M-Mother–!!! H-He’s carrying a–!!”

“A corpse.”

The uninvited guest cheerfully spoke as the dull thud of the body was accompanied by a wet noise, “Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of what happens to people at the end of their life, my little sister?”

Goddamnit, Oberon Vortigern!!!

While maintaining a fairy-tale like facade, he could easily kill someone with one hand, sword or not. The novel said that that wasn’t his “true” appearance per say, as he only revealed it to the real heroine of the story, Titania, when their relationship eventually progressed.

It was hard enough to get through his route in easy mode, but now that she was playing the role of a villainess?

It was practically impossible to make sure she gets at least ten percent on this cursed affection meter on top of their heads!

Still, she would have to find out if the reset button exists, her only hope of going back to her world.

After the bloodstained prince had said his piece towards the family sitting on the throne, a game notification appeared in place.

A new episode had begun: “The Prince of Liars and Fairies, Oberon Vortigern.”

Would you like to be teleported to the maze garden?

>[YES]

[NO]

Ritsuka half-wished her only friend in this world was right by her side. 

Castoria!!! You were fucking right!!!! She should have just stayed in the forest with her instead of attending this stupid ball!! ARGHHHH!!!!

Nevertheless, she pressed on the [YES] button before the timer for it counted down ahead of her. Seriously, why even put a [NO] option? When she gets her hands on the being who thrusted her into this world…

Her next blink was the sight of the very garden itself that Titania had confessed her love to. And the very place Oberon swore to protect her.

Ritsuka had to admit that what she was doing was stupid… but she had to try for that reset button. To be able to get back home, to be able to survive in this messed up game.

—

“I connected shit.”

“No, you didn’t! Oh my god! For the hundredth time, it's because you were going to kill me back then!”

“Nope, nope. Lalalala~ I’m able to see lies~ You know that well by now!”

“Urgh, Castoria!!!!!”

The fairy could only snort and laugh at her two friends. She also didn’t think they would be able to genuinely fall in love with each other, but here they are, arguing already like an old married couple.

“Oi, oi, who are you calling an old married couple!?” The prince growled out, reaching out to painfully pinch her cheek- “H-Hey, that hurts! Isn’t that true though!? Gah!”

“It is not!” They simultaneously said, like an old married couple.

Ritsuka puffed her cheeks before crossing her arms, “As if you don’t act like one with the greatest blacksmith in the kingdom.”

The way her face immediately heated up as she stuttered caused her to internally scream while spewing out excuses, “W-What the!? Muramasa!? That boomer!? Are you serious, Ritsuka!? Psh, as if! He lectures me way too much! I really really hate it! I also hate how he g-g-g-gets rid of his shirt off whenever it's scorching hot. Fuck, I hate him! AAAAA-”

And Ritsuka’s laugh caused her to finally shut up. “Cas, I never said anything about Muramasa.”

“Weren’t you paying attention, tomboy?” Castoria didn’t miss the way her friend’s hand was entwined against Ritsuka’s own.

With Oberon’s tongue sticking out and a finger against his cheek to pull a mocking face at her, she grabbed onto her sword with a battle cry to destroy his ass for pushing her into a beauty contest with Knocknarea and Bageko from last month. Ugh, she should rob him too while she’s at it.

Ritsuka had to admit that her experiences here were nothing compared to what she usually witnessed back home…being the center of a reverse harem novel world of all things…but her goals have not yet changed.

She will still do her best to find a way back home even if the chances of finding it seems kinda bleak. But with moments like this, underneath the sunlight with two of the people she cherished the most, she finds that she could forget about those thoughts for a while and be at peace with them.

[yo9urt]

jpmd update number...is it five? nope ok its number 4

LONG POST AS ALWAYS

what i said in the tags on the last post was true: today we met team skull and went to spindas cafe!!!

OBSERVATIONS

team skull's japanese name is ドクローズ which as far as i can tell means "poison rose" ... ??? nothing particularly rosy about them but sure

koffing called skuntank あにき which KILLED me because yes i know in its most basic sense its just older brother/man who is older & superior to you but the only other place ive ever heard it is in the yakuza games and i literally said in the last post that i was half expecting yakuza-esque dialogue from team skull so this made me laugh so much wwwww

skuntank was very rude (さすが). the first thing he says at all is "どけ！じゃまだ！” aka "move, outta my way!" (lit. "MOVE! (YOU) ARE AN OBSTACLE")

zubat was also very rude and called the guild omeetachi

aniki, nioi (smell/odor), and onara (fart) were all in katakana - makes sense

in politer and cuter news, wynaut's japanese name is so-nano and she ends every sentence with nano (or sometimes just no) which seems really punny and cute lol

spinda uses generally the same polite shopkeeper speech everyone else does, with some vowel elongation (practically every desu/masu turned into desuu/masuu) and several words i didn't know (although let's remember i've only played sky once before now so this was extra new to me compared to everything else)

and a couple polite speech notes: loudred speaks informally to diglett but diglett speaks politely to loudred (probably both superiority and age), and the pokemon that the protags recruit in dungeons speak politely to the protags

today was a bit shorter and tougher than previous days partially because of the spinda thing but also because i was SWIMMING in menus and dialogue. when i walked out of the cafe and chimecho came over to tell me about it i was like ohhh my god another string of text boxes...

i also realized it'd be nice if i could play it more often because the longer i go without playing, the more things i forget :P i got confused by a lot of the stuff in my inventory because i couldn't remember what half of it meant and i had to do a mix of jisho-ing and staring really hard at item descriptions until things came to me...sigh

but overall things are still going pretty well. except for the sentry game, today was round 2 of that and i actually failed twice and got like the lowest prize tier!!!! can you believe that!!!! very flop. but aside from that i'm making my way...and learning boatloads of new words!!

GOOD SENTENCES

けっきょくのところはじつりょくだよ。じつりょく。(said by zubat to partner)

somehow i remember this EXACT line in the english version, ~16 years later. this is where he says "it all comes down to talent...pure talent."

lit. "in-the-end NOUNRELATIONSHIP place TOPIC true power COPULA NEW. true power."

へへっ　あにきさえいればおまえたちなんかひとひねりだぜ。(said by zubat to partner)

"hehe. if the chief had been there, we would've beaten you weaklings easily." (aniki isn't chief but that's what they call him in english so that's what i'm using)

lit. "hehe. big-brother only/even exist-COND you-PLURAL the-likes-of easily-defeated COPULA ASSERTION"

あっ！うわさをすればこのにおい！(said by koffing to...kind of the partner)

"ah! speak of the devil - there's that stench!"

lit. "ah! rumors OBJ do-COND this stench!"

(when i read "うわさをすれば" and looked up うわさ i said out loud, "hmm, if you do rumors...OH! is this like speak of the devil?" and I WAS RIGHT! BITCH)

そんなことより。おまえたちかねになりそうなしごとはあったのか？(said by skuntank to the gang)

"never mind that. have you guys found any jobs that look like they'll pull in cash?" (i can ALMOST remember what the real english line is but not quite...)

lit. "that-kind-of thing from. you-PLURAL money result.in-seems-CONN.COPULA work TOPIC exist-PAST の QUESTION?"

side note: かね was in katakana here

[LEADER'S NAME]がやられたというのに。。。なさけないな。。。(said by partner to technically themself)

"even though they treated LEADER like that...i'm so pathetic..."

lit. "[LEADER] SBJ do-receive-PAST QUOTE-say.NONPAST のに... pathetic SELF.DIRECTED..."

this one is maybe the hardest one for me to wrap my head around in the entire group...i still struggle with recognizing the receptive form/telling it apart from the potential and having it combined with という and のに which i understand decently and more than decently well (respectively) but not entirely, that was hard...

i was about to say that if i didn't know the english equivalent dialogue i might not have gotten this one but actually i have なさけない hard-memorized (it's in one of my all time favorite JP songs) so i probably could have gotten it from context lol but understanding the grammar helped a LOT

すきなしょくざいをもってくればおいしいドリンクをつくってくれるんだって。(said by pachirisu in spinda's cafe)

"if i bring ingredients i like, i bet (spinda) will make a tasty drink for me!"

lit. "pleasing-CONN.COPULA ingredients OBJ carry-and-come(bring)-COND tasty drinks OBJ make-and-give(down-to-me) EXPLANATORY QUOTE (?)"

still working my way around だって...

[karmasuna]

headcanons for Bakugou, Todoroki and Sero (or anyone else you want to add) turning into cats via quirk and their crush just thinks it's a stray cat wandering the dorms so they pet it, give them love, feed them (human cat safe food), compliment them and take pictures and they're just eating it all up, the attention. The temptation to put a cucumber near them is strong

 i had to search up what cucumbers did to cats wwwww the more you know

Bakugo Katsuki

○ one day as you’re going down to the kitchen to grab some breakfast as usual you spot a small blonde cat curled up in the middle of the hallway

○ the cat’s very hostile too, hissing at anyone who tries to approach him. Kirishima’s the only one who doesn’t get all scratched up

○ and after Koda tries and fails to talk to the cat and ends up running away looking traumatized, everyone makes sure to stay at least six feet away from the angry fluffball that had made their dorm his home

○ when you try to approach the cat glaring at you from its spot on the floor your classmates scream at you not to do it, not wanting you to get all scratched up either

○ the cat had scratched up Todoroki’s face, and no one was happy about resident pretty boy’s face being damaged even a little

○ but apparently you’re in the clear. the cat lets you get close enough to pat his soft fur gently without him trying to injure you at all

○ so you become his designated caretaker until your class figures out what to do with him

○ looking at the cat, you wanted to show Bakugo much much the cat resembled him, but surprisingly he’s not there, and when you get to class Aizawa says that he’s taken an excused absence for family affairs, so you don’t really think about it much, just a little bummed he couldn’t meet the cat until he came back to school

○ he’s always with you wherever you go, sitting on your lap as you work and even curling up next to you when you go to sleep

○ you take lots of pictures of the cat and with him too, cooing at the small animal and telling him how adorable he was, giving him gentle kisses on his face

○ you’ve just become so accustomed to the cat in your life over the next week 

○ so when you wake up one morning to see Bakugo of all people next to you in your bed your heart nearly jumps out of your chest 

○ like why is your crush in your bed???

○ but you don’t say anything, deciding that you might as well savor the moment and admire how peaceful he looked when he was asleep and not yelling at people

○ that’s when you realize the cat is gone but now Bakugo’s here

○ and it doesn’t take much for you to connect the dots and realize that the cat was him all along

○ when he woke up, boy would you have lots of stuff to talk about

○ you’re really embarrassed about having practically kissed him and slept in the same bed with him for the past week, apologizing for basically invading his personal space

○ but the unusually soft gaze he gave you wasn’t something you’d ever thought you would see from him

○  “Would you have done all that crap if you knew it was me?”

○ his question throws you off guard, but you decide you might as well shoot your shot

○ “I would’ve given you more kisses if I knew.”

○ he instantly turns to face you and give you all the smooches you could ever want 

Todoroki Shoto

○ one day after school you return to your room to find a cat on your bed

○ there’s no indication as to where the cat came from or where you should return him to, so you just settle for taking care of him until you figure out what to do with him

○ fixing him a little fish and a water bowl so that he wouldn’t be hungry 

○ petting him gently as you watch him gently lap up some water, and you’re struck by how much the cat resembles your crush

○ most of his fur’s white, save for a little splotch of brown on his left eye, and he also had heterochromic eyes just like Todoroki

○ so you call the cat Todo-chan, and since he seems to respond to the name it just kind of sticks

○ he’s a relatively calm cat, and most of the him he just sits there next to you quietly, blinking up at you with his bi-colored eyes

○ and you come to realize that he /loves/ belly rubs. at first you’re really surprised that the cat even let you go anywhere near his stomach, but you don’t worry about it too much when he starts purring softly from your actions

○ he’s also a great listener too, and he seems to understand you when you talk to him about your worries, and the way he softly nuzzles your stomach and tries to wrap his body around you like a hug always makes you feel a lot better after you let all your worries out

○ although at first he’s not really that touchy of a cat, over time he starts to open up more to you, coming over to sit on your lap while you work, but never disturbing you too much

○ one day you’re curled up in bed with him, talking quietly about how much you missed Todoroki ever since he had to suddenly return home and take an extended absence from school for a “family event”

○ telling the small cat next to you about your feelings for the boy and talking about how you wanted to get closer to him

○ you slowly fall asleep in the middle of your words, and when you wake up Todo-chan’s nowhere to be seen for the first time since you met him

○ but Todoroki’s back in school, so that was something you were happy about

○ and he’s come back with a present for you too, a cute pair of earrings that you had had your eye on for a while 

○ you’re surprised that he even knew you wanted them, since you hadn’t told anyone about them to your knowledge

○ he calmly tells you that he had been hit by a quirk that turned him into a cat for the last few days and that’s why he wasn’t at school, and you quickly realize what he’s trying to tell you

○ you’re embarrassed to have told him so many of your weird thoughts, but he stops you and tells you that he was glad he knew more about you now, apologizing for not telling you sooner

○ and he confesses to you, admitting that he never tried to act on his feelings for you before because he wasn’t sure whether you returned them

○ “I’ve liked you for a long time, Y/N, and I don’t want to waste any more time being a coward and hiding my feelings from you.”

Sero Hanta

○ from the moment Aizawa had showed up to class, announced that your class would temporarily be taking care of a cat and immediately followed it up by saying that Sero wouldn’t be in school for a few days due to “personal reasons” and not to contact him, you had a sneaking suspicion that the cat was no normal cat

○ it didn’t take you too long to guess what had happened and assume that Sero had somehow been transformed into a cat

○ it was no secret that Sero had a crush on you, and the only reason you two aren’t officially dating was simply because he never asked you out

○ and the cat not only looked like him, but was also always attached to you, literally

○ sitting in your lap in class, and even sleeping next to you in your bed

○ so you figured you would use the chance to have some fun with him since he thought you had no idea that the cat was in fact, your /not-official/ boyfriend

○ getting cat costumes from Aizawa for your resident class cat to try on and take photos with to laugh at him in the future (why your class teacher had a princess cat costume, you didn’t want to know)

○ and hiding cucumbers around the dorms to freak him out when he turned a corner, secretly filming his reactions when you could 

○ your class all agree to pretend not to know anything when the quirk wears off, sticking to Aizawa’s story of “personal reasons”

○ but one day you accidentally let it slip that you knew it was him all along

 “Gosh, I liked it way better when you were a cat, Hanta- god dammit!”

 “You knew it was me all along?”

 “Guess the cat’s out of the bag now.”

 “Why’d you keep on kissing me if you knew it was me?”

 “I’d kiss you if you weren’t a cat too, you idiot.”

 “T-then why didn’t you ever do it?”

 “You never asked me to.”

○ you guy definitely make it official after that though

[morimocha]

Diluc tells Albedo an embarrassing thing about Kaeya but doesn’t know that Kaeya is listening, so when he reveals himself, Diluc and Kaeya start arguing and bring up the most embarrassing things each other has done (as siblings naturally do). they forget Albedo is there and he just watches them 😭😭

this was so fun to write omg wwwww

kaeya and diluc interactions are just *chef's kiss

word count: 896

Laughter coming from Albedo's office wasn't uncommon. Many days, the alchemist was taking care of the youngest Knight of them all, and his laugh would mix with hers in a way that would make anyone grasp at their heart.

But what Kaeya doesn't expect to hear was a lower chuckle than Albedo's, one he knows way too well. He peeks through the crack of the door and the frame to see Diluc standing next to the other's desk, bottles of wrapped wine nearby. A delivery, Kaeya guesses, and his eyes narrow. He leans in closer, pressed against the wall, and tries to listen closely. There's nothing Diluc can tell Albedo that Kaeya can't say better.

"And that's when the dolt jumps onto the branch with all his weight and wraps himself around it. Of course, the old thing breaks off, and he falls two feet onto his back," Kaeya's face goes red as he hears Diluc speak. He was really just spilling embarrassing childhood mistakes he made to Albedo, wasn't he? "He was just laying there, gasping like a fish, and father and I couldn't stop laughing. We told him it was an awful idea, but he wanted to prove us wrong--"

"Excuse you, I wanted to prove you wrong, Mister Humiliation." Kaeya can't help himself as he enters the room, hands interlocked casually behind his head. Diluc crosses his arms and rolls his eyes, and Kaeya mimics him with an added flair to his actions.

Albedo tries to settle his laughter enough to greet the captain, but fails and continues to chuckle as he covers his mouth with his fist. Kaeya holds back what feels like a pout and slings an arm around the back of Diluc's neck, pulling him down and roughly mussling his hair with his fist. Diluc shoves himself away as he attempts to straighten out his hair, and Kaeya sits on the edge of Albedo's desk.

"How much did he even tell you?" He asks with raised eyebrows, tilting his head as he makes eye contact with the alchemist.

Albedo settles down enough to talk and lets out a hum. "Well, he arrived shortly before you, so only one story."

Now Kaeya hums as his gaze slides over to Diluc, and his smirk turns downright villainous as they lock eyes. They've shared knowing glances like this for as long as each can remember. A look that spells nothing but trouble for them both, but especially the one on the receiving end. Diluc narrows his eyes.

"Don't."

"Hey, Albedo!"

"Kaeya, I'm warning you."

"Did I ever tell you about how Diluc used to be so scared of cats that he cried whenever one got near him?"

Albedo's eyes go wide and he rests his chin in his hand, elbow on the desk. "You did not. Do tell me more."

So Kaeya begins the story and Diluc has to hold back from wringing his neck right then and there. The captain tells of how a barely prepubescent Kaeya brought home a stray kitten he found, and Diluc had started screaming as it meowed at him. Albedo looks to Diluc during the retelling and struggles to stifle his laughter as he sees the other's face is nearly as red as his hair.

By the time Kaeya finishes, Diluc has his arms crossed and back turned. Kaeya snorts as he starts prodding him with his finger, and Diluc eventually smacks his hand away and puts his hands on his hips. He looks ready to start a fight, but Albedo can't over the way he's still pink from embarrassment. He laughs and Kaeya joins him, both men leaning on the desk for support.

"At least I only cried when scared," Diluc huffs. "Kaeya used to cry at everything. Not catching a bug, getting the smallest of cuts, my father being out for too long, you name it. You couldn't look away from him for a second or he would be in tears when you turned back."

Kaeya lets out an offended scoff and puts a hand on his chest as if hurt from the humiliation. He steps closer and leans down those few inches to get eye level with the other, and Diluc meets his gaze with fire in his eyes.

"Are we really doing this right now?" Kaeya says.

"You started it."

"Look at Sir Maturity, pointing his finger like always nowadays. Remember how whenever you did something wrong as a kid, you would beg for forgiveness like you would be killed? Did you not cry then, too?"

"Again, that was fear. Crying when afraid is acceptable. However, pissing the bed until age twelve is never okay."

"Oh, you did not just go there."

"Perhaps I did!"

Albedo watches the two with wide eyes, a hand over his mouth and his bottom lip between his teeth. He's seen the men fight before, but this bickering was so uncharacteristically light-hearted compared to any other time he's watched them argue. He pulls a glass from the cupboard behind him, popping open one of the bottles delivered to him moments earlier. He was going to use it in an experiment, but it seems like a waste to not enjoy a good glass now.

Kaeya and Diluc have seemingly forgotten he was there, and this may be the one time he was interested in petty drama and secret spilling.

“Octa A-kun~ BOO! Happy Halloween! Enjoy these candies I made for you~”

*whispers* Resurgence of mob character content, let’s go--

Ignore that this is a late Halloween request wwwww

Down the Rabbit Hole...

“W-Whoa...!!”

He jerks back, nearly spilling the contents of his tray all over the Mostro Lounge’s floor. Thank the Great Seven he doesn’t--otherwise, that would be coming right out of his paycheck, and he needs the cash to buy holiday gifts and cup ramen.

“Th-That scared me...!! Your... Your costume, that shout of yours just now... y-you really went all-out for Halloween, didn’t you?”

He gives a nervous laugh.

“Ah, I-I guess... you pulled a ‘trick’ and a ‘treat’ on me. Th-Thank you, though! M-My heart might be pounding right out of my chest right now... but! I-It will have been well worth it to taste your homemade candies! I... I hope you have a very happy Halloween as well, dear customer!”

Chapter 20

Dazai “......Pray tell. *What kind of things filled my heart/mind while I kissed you just now?”

*t/l note: Hmm I decided to tweak the translation here from last chapter, since I translate it super literally last time, I got confused with the existence of ‘が’ particle in the sentence ╥﹏╥

Dazai “Even if I do this — would you still call me ‘kind’?”

MC “Kya......”

MC’s field of vision’s turning around — when she realized it, Dazai’s covering her.

Her fingers are entangled with his long fingers, and sewn to the table.

Even when MC tries to push back Dazai’s shoulder, he just won’t budge, and she then aware their difference in physique.  

MC “Dazai-sa......”

Dazai “Like Mimi-san said, why don’t I hold you in my arms right now? You locked us up, even.”

(......!)

Dazai “We shared a pillow once on that downpour. In any case, it’s good to make an established fact.” 

Dazai “It’s all right, I’ll make you feel good. You......like me, don’t you?”

MC “——······”

MC chest hurts at the sound of terribly cold words.

MC “......Dazai-san, are you angry? That, is this also your intention of being a clown......”

Dazai “Hmm, who knows?”

MC heart tightened more at his indifferent reply.

Sadness and agitation ···— his expression she has never seen before is so painful.

(I’m the one who’s being told terrible things, and yet......)

(This is the first time I’ve ever seen Dazai like this.)

(Such a painful face......)

It’s different from the expression with shadow in his eyes and easygoing smile......

......it’s an expression that looks like a raw humanity which’s imprisoned inside begins to overflow. 

MC “Dazai-san......”

Dazai “It’s no use asking for an answer. Either way, what I’m going to do is the same.”

MC “Ah......”

His big hand caresses MC’s *hips over her clothes.

(*腰 - could be waist too

Feeling the intention of the act from the gesture, MC trembles in surprise.

MC “Ya......mmn, wait Dazai-sa......!”

(How could it turn out this way......?)

Dazai “......”

MC “......!”

MC’s skirt is pulled up, and the hand that creeps in from there touches her leg.

As her skin’s having gooseflesh from being traced by Dazai’s fingers as if to stir her up, a sweet sensation runs up her body.

(No......!)

When MC somehow struggles to resist......

A sharp thing is felt......his fangs are pressing against her nape, as if to block her movement —

(I’m......bitten···—)

Dazai “——······”

Almost at the same time that it felt like her breath caught, and MC grabs the tablecloth without thinking.

At the next moment, the books piled up on the table slips over the cloth, and falls to the floor with a loud noise.

After a bit of silence......Dazai slowly raises his body and looks down at MC.

His eyes are shaking anxiously like he’s enduring something......

Dazai “......”

(......Dazai, san.)

Dazai “Mimi-san, I......I’m afraid of your straightforwardness.”

Dazai “When you’re with me, I ···—”

At that time, the sound of turning the doorknob could be heard.

MC “......!”

??? “......Eh? Is it locked? Hey, who is it? I heard a loud noise, are you okay?”

(This voice, Leonardo-san......)

Dazai gently pulls MC arm to stand her up, and casually turns his face away while putting a distance.

Dazai “......You should ask Leonardo-san for help.”

Dazai “If you think I’m the worst man, I don’t mind getting scolded.”

(Such thing......)

When MC thinks of the expression hidden in his long bangs, she couldn’t blame him.

MC “......Just tell me one thing instead.”

MC “Dazai-san, before this, what did you try to say......?”

Dazai “When you’re with me, I ···—”

MC wants to know the words ahead.

Dazai “......”

Dazai, who’s in silence, turning his gaze towards her. But......

Dazai “The door has been fixed, I suppose. You could go back to your time next time.”

MC “......”

The moment his smile points at her, MC chest feels like attacked by hollow emptiness.

(Again, Dazai-san is so far away......)

No matter how many times she tries to touch and step into Dazai’s heart, he would thrust her away.

MC cannot say anything anymore......she goes to the door and unlocks it.

Leonardo “Cara mia —··· and Dazai?”

MC “I’m sorry for the racket, Leonardo-san. I’m the one who locked the door.”

Leonardo “Huh? Also, why......”

MC “I’m going back to my room. Good night.”

Without the courage to look back and energy to smile, MC passes by Leonardo —

(I couldn’t hear Dazai-san’s true feelings again......)

The pain in her chest doesn’t go away at all, and MC feels the night is too long......

Leonardo “......”

Leonardo sees MC’s back off, and then returns his gaze back to the library.

The locked space, MC’s earlier appearance, and also, the lingering silence......

Leonardo “Dazai, you......”

Dazai “......Will you hit me, Leonardo-san?”

Leonardo could guess most of it, and looks at Dazai with bitter smile.

Leonardo “Do you want me to hit you? Ah, I would've done so with pleasure even if cara mia weeps and clings on me.”

Leonardo “You want to be hit......by Mimi, don’t you?”

Dazai “Mimi-san......didn’t even tell me off. Even though I behaved badly.”

Leonardo “......What a look you have on your face.”

Leonardo sighs and picks up the book that fell on the floor.

Leonardo “Give up the idea getting hit by me. I don’t think you’re such a mean fellow.”

Dazai “......Haha, aren’t you overestimating me? I’m just a man who could do nothing but acts like a clown.”

Leonardo “You don’t look like a clown now, you know......?”

Leonardo leaves the room, after presses the book against Dazai, along with his words.

The pressed book is returned to the table, and Dazai lets out a small sigh.

Dazai “I can’t believe the urge to suck blood was so unbearable......”

A deep distress that is engraved between his eyebrows could be peeked through the face which is covered in one hand......

Dazai “Mimi-san. When you’re with me, I......my heart, on its own accord......feels happiness.”

Dazai “I mustn’t desire such thing. Only that girl......I don’t want to be unhappy.”

Dazai “I —··· I want to stab myself to death right now.”

The next day —···

Sitting on the edge of the fountain, MC gently brushes Dazai’s book on her lap.

She came to the town for a diversion, but it was just yesterday that she couldn’t help but remember.

(Why did he kiss me like that......?)

Forcibly kissed her lips, and messing up her clothes.

(This is the first time I’ve ever seen such Dazai-san......)

Apart from feeling surprised and sad, MC’d be lying if she said she didn’t have any fear.

Dazai “Even this act of gently wipe away your tears, might be just an act of a clown.”

Dazai “I — if you desire of it, I’ll hug you right here to deceive you in pleasure.”

(Did he act like a clown because I instigated it......?)

(But......)

Dazai “Mimi-san, I......I’m afraid of your straightforwardness.”

Dazai “When you’re with me, I ···—”

At that moment, Dazai’s expression when he started to say something, it didn’t appear like he was glossing it over — like a clown.

(If we take it as his true feelings, what does he really think?)

If he was pushing MC away because he’s afraid of her......

(......I wonder if he really hated me.)

As she’s feeling depressed and pondering in circles —

Charles “Mimi! We meet again.”

MC “......! Charles......”

MC “Why is Charles with that guy……?”

Shakespeare “Charles blindly adores Lord Vlad.”

Shakespeare “I don’t know what Dazai is really thinking about, but perhaps —”

Shakespeare “Perhaps he got an invitation to side with Lord Vlad……as I did in my time.”

(......)

MC remembered the story she heard from Shakespeare, and instinctively put herself on guard.

Charles “I wanted to see you. I’m going to give back your handkerchief and ···—“

Charles “Mimi, what’s wrong? You’re kind of awkward, though......”

MC “That’s not true. Look, I’m just as usual.”

MC’s trying to smile, but......

Charles “If you’re exactly as usual, look this way please?”

MC tries to act naturally, but an unconscious tension is being transmitted......

.......Charles sits by her side, and leans his head curiously.

(I only know Charles when we meet in the town like this.)

(But......when I hear that story, I don’t know how to treat him.)

(Is Charles really going to take Dazai-san......?)

When MC’s enduring indescribable anxiety that swirls inside her chest —

Charles “Hey......is there something happened with Dazai?”

MC “Huh?”

Charles “......To tell you the truth, I’ve been watching you for awhile. You have a sad face again.”

Charles “Is Dazai doing something that hurt you?”

MC “...How......”

Seeing MC in confusion, an expression of ‘as expected’ shown on Charles’s face.

And then, he looks into her eyes, as if he’s peering in her inner heart.

Charles “I don’t want to see the sad part of Mimi......”

Charles “Hey, I’ll make you happy and smile a lot, alright?”

Charles “Isn’t it hard to stay near Dazai? Then, I’ll be by your side.”

MC “Charles......”

Words similar to sweet invitation being put out one after another.

When MC cannot take them all, Charles rests his hand on her hand that she put on the book.

Charles “I won’t leave you alone. Hey Mimi, come with me.”

Charles “How about ‘we’ live happily in a world created by vampires?”

MC “......! Vampires......”

MC’s eyes wide open to the fact that Charles himself revealed what he had heard from Shakespeare.

He continues happily with a *mystical smile.

(*くすりと笑み - smile like a drug, cognate with the kusu root of adjective 奇し (kusushi, “mystical”), from the way that drugs and medicines would have mystical effects, I think? wwwww

Charles “I made you surprised, huh. But Mimi knows the secret of the people in the mansion and lives together with them, right?”

Charles “I’m the same. I died once and revived as a vampire.”

Charles “My benefactor — Lord Vlad, found me through a door that transcends space and time.”

(Charles, what the heck are you thinking......)

MC “Why......did you tell me? You won’t get any benefits by telling me.”

Charles shows a blank look, surprised to hear her back as MC hides her tremble.

Charles “Eh......? Did you perhaps know my true identity?”

MC “......”

When MC gets hold of herself a little bit while hesitating, Charles laughs brightly.

Charles “What’s that, I see it now......”

Charles “I talked to you because I want you to know more and more about me.”

Charles “Just like you straightly believe in Dazai, I too want you to understand and believe in me......no, in US.”

MC “Believe......?”

Charles continues his story with shining eyes.

Charles “Lord Vlad wants to keep this world beautiful for eternity.”

Charles “He wishes for peace far and far away into the future.”

MC “The world for eternity......”

Charles “Yeah. Everyone in the world should love each other without fighting.”

Charles “Don’t you think that would be really really happy?”

Charles “Lord Vlad thinks of borrowing the power of great men to realize such world.”

(Isn’t that what Shakespeare-san said about the purpose of the guy named Vlad?)

MC “Is that why Charles approached Dazai-san?”

Charles just smiles sweetly to MC’s timid question.

Charles “Hmm. I wish not only Dazai, but also all the vampires could cooperate......”

(It’s like a dream full of hopes, but......)

What crosses MC mind is the raw killing match that she saw on Shakespeare’s stage.

Just remembering about the scene makes her spine chilled......

(The guy who created that situation was Vlad, right......?)

MC “Charles......The man who revived Charles could use someone.”

MC “Also......Isn’t he a scary guy who’s willing to let others die......?”

Charles “......”

When MC asks the question boldly, Charles stares at her with eyes like calm surface of water......

Charles “—··· I knew it, you were the one who was in Will’s stage hall that night.”

MC “......!”

(At that time, it was Charles who was with Shakespeare-san......?)

Evading MC’s astonishing eyes, Charles looks up at the sky with sorrowful eyes. 

Charles “Since the two of them who fought that day had broken heart, it was such a sad thing, but......”

Charles “Their sacrifices are not in vain.”

Charles “......Well, sometimes it can’t be helped for the future.”

Charles “Don’t be afraid of Lord Vlad. He’s a guy who’s truly loves this world and humans.”

(It can’t......be helped......)

He shows a genuine expression and truly looks sad.

However, the words spun from his word that accept such terrible things......they are contradicting.

(I don’t understand Charles’s thought......)

MC feels she couldn’t speak anymore, and gently releases Charles’s hand that rests on hers.

Charles “Mimi?”

MC “......I can’t go with Charles.”

MC “Even if it’s for the sake of peace, but after being told that the death of a person is something that can’t be helped, I can’t take it.”

MC “No matter the reason is, a person’s death is sad......”

MC “Even if it’s not what Charles did, but if you’re fine with killing people, it’s like killing with your heart.”

Charles “——······”

His light blue eyes wide open in tremble.

Charles “Wait...! Then how about Dazai? Dazai is the same as me.”

Charles “He lives by letting someone else died (without helping) too. Can you still believe in Dazai?”

MC “......”

MC heart pierced by his painful voice, and she’s at a loss for words.

(Dazai-san’s “sin” is an unmistakable fact......) 

(But......)

MC “Dazai-san’s.......surely different.”

(He is a person who chose to revive for atonement and continue to accept suffering that’s hard to imagine.)

MC “Even if he committed a sin, I don’t think Dazai-san won’t be sad about someone’s death......”

Charles “Mimi......”

Leaving those words alone, MC leaves Charles —

Charles “Mimi, why......?”

[astro-break]

Did I spend 3 hours cataloging the new MV outfits instead of studying? Yes. Please don’t question it. Everything is under the cut because its long, there’s really bad quality screenshots, and i went ham on the data analysis :)

General points: - There are three types of outfits in the set. Tucked, Untucked, and Half tucked shirts. Pants are the same as far as I can tell

- All of this is speculative and is in no way fact. Please take the data with a grain of salt, I am horrendous at math and can’t count for shit

- Belts and shoes are reflective and go Kira Kira during lives. Subaru goes crazy over them and has probably already stolen them all

Mini Analysis (that eventually turned into a not so mini analysis)

I think that each character wearing their shirts slightly differently is actually super interesting and shows a little bit of personality for them. Loose shirts are more boyish and athletic, youthful and fun while tucked in shirts give off a more refined and put together appearance. Half tucked just looks lazy in my opinion but also has the best of both worlds, a casual kind of formality.

StarPro having a more or less equal amount of Idols wearing their shirts in all three ways is pretty interesting and really emphasizes the amount of freedom these idols are given based on their agency. It also speaks to how free StarPro units are in relation to other agencies since they are the sole agency without any units who match each other’s shirt wearing tendencies. Everyone’s just kind of everywhere with each unit doing their own thing. Its interesting to note that the only unit in StarPro that doesn’t have all three styles of shirt wearing is Alkaloid. In Mayoi’s own words, Alkaloid is “a newbie who has just made his debut”. Because of they’re new I suspect that they haven’t branched out very much, sticking to the tried and true traditions of idol work that dictates that uniformity with minor deviations is the best for unit outfits. You can totally see it in how they’ve separated themselves into two neat groups: Hiiro with Aira and Tatsumi with Mayoi (yes shippers you can go feral over this fact).

Contrasting StarPro, CosPro has the highest amount of units with matching shirt styles. Eden makes sense since Ibara probably wants the face of the company to look uniform so he made them all wear their shirts the same. Though the decision to leave them untucked leaves me questioning a few things. Do they want to seem more approachable? I guessed before actually seeing the outfits that Eden would either have half tucked or fully tucked shirts mostly because they’re a unit who prioritizes appearances. Having that put together air definitely fits Eden (or at least Adam). 2wink wasn’t a surprise tho. They’re generally a more uniform unit being twins and all. Though again, a bit miffed about the choice for half tucked shirts. While I will freely admit that I don’t read very many Eden or 2wink stories nor have I interacted with them very much, I do think there is merit in being able to understand design choices at a glance. If a 2winkP or an EdenP would like to hazard a guess as to why these two units have shirt wearing styles that doesn’t really fit with my preconceived notions of them please do tell me. But other than that, CosPro is generally really uniform with each unit being more or less balanced. Valkyrie as always has a really strong sense of aesthetics and pairing the half tucked shirt with the tucked shirt was a very good call. Crazy:B, like Alkaloid, is neatly separated into two groups: Rinne with Niki and Kohaku with HiMERU (more shipping fodder for you shippers :p). But contrary to Alkaloid who’s following more conventional idol ideas, i feel like Crazy:B was instructed by Ibara to dress like that. Both to promote the image of unity within CosPro but also to piss Rinne off ww.

I really don’t have much to say on RyLin since I generally don’t like any of the units affiliated with it. I really sorry but I’m pretty indifferent about Ra*bits and Akatsuki. I do have Opinions TM about Undead but that’s for another day. But for now, I will say that Ra*bits all having untucked shirts is very cute and very Ra*bits. The picture perfect image of youth and energy!

Thanks to Knights basically dominating the board with their five person unit all with tucked in pants, the data was skewed way to much into the tucked shirts area wwww. Even if Natsume and Tsumugi didn’t have tucked shirts it would still be the majority wwwww. In all seriousness, tucked in pants is 100% a Knights look and i am living for it. They look so noble even in converse and casual wear. I think Mama having an untucked shirt is also super cute and makes him a lot more huggable. (please refer to the Ra*bits screenshot, its very cute the height difference) Even Sora’s half tucked look is very boyish a cute, very Sora. Honestly each of the agencies’ personalities shone through even through these simple clothes and honestly did a better job of giving me each unit’s personalities at a glance than those 5th Ani outfits did.

Also I have no idea why some units share shoe colors its just a fun thing to point out. Yes I’m pretentious and say burgundy instead of dark red. Shut up. I like burgundy :p

Extra Notes

- None of these bitches are straight, they’re wearing Converse with cuffed pants! Look me in the face and tell me that wearing converse with cuffed pants is a straight thing. Thats right, you can’t.

- The stage was Knights’ Silent Oath bc it’s a stage with 5 people, has nice lighting, and has multiple parts where I can get all 5 people with a large window of time. Also I can stand listening to Silent Oath 12 times while taking screenshots. The other option was Suisei Halation but I found Silent Oath first :p

- This came from me noticing that Rei had purple converse shoes and laughing my ass off about it before going to check out the other units and spiraling from there

- As I was cataloguing this, I made a mental list of who in Enstars deserves to have fangs on their model and who actually does. I’m not posting that today but if you’re interested....

- None of this was edited. None of it.

- I really should have been studying ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯  time well wasted

Oh oh oh!!! Matchup? Please? Of not all good!

Um how to describe me...? Uhhh, I'mma 5'11, 25 yr old African American female. I'm pretty shy until i get to know you a bit better (maybe like ten minutes into the convo). When i do open up and consider you a fren I'm all memes and fun, I've been told I'm very animated when I'm excited or happy about things. High on empath way i feed off energies in the room and can tell when something is bothering you. I love to dance and sing and I'm learning to skateboard! Ummmm... There's more I'm sure but i can't think of anything. LOVE YOU AND YOUR WORK

I match you with...

Leonardo!!  He loves how animated and friendly you are! He thinks shy people are cute and all, but seeing how your personality shines through after you start talking? Someone call an ambulance because this man has FALLEN. He loves all the little things about you just as much as the big things. He lives for your excitement: He loves how visible it is! There’s never any second-guessing, and honestly, he thinks it’s really cute. He definitely starts putting in a lot of effort into surprising you so he can see your excitement.  He really, really appreciates your empathy. He loves how you guys can bounce off of each other, but he also appreciates how you can tell when something’s up with him. Sometimes he doesn’t even realize when something’s bothering him, so you’re really helpful when he starts repressing stuff accidentally. He’s not an empath, but he’s really good at reading people! So rest assured, he’ll be there for you too. He’s a great listener, and he always has really good advice. (That is, when he’s not dropping a joke suggestion.)  He sends you the best memes. He’s also a little stuck in the vine era still, so expect “Road Work Ahead?” jokes every time you see a roadwork sign.  He loves dancing in the kitchen with you. It’s not uncommon to dance with him in the kitchen, belting out classic songs while you wait for cupcakes to bake. He’s a really good dancer, too! He can work with pretty much any song, honestly. He loves to twirl and spin you around a lot. His hold is firm enough to make you feel safe and secure, but just loose enough to dance freely. Speaking of safety, you always feel really safe around him. He’s right by your side, usually with a hand entangled with yours or with an arm around your shoulder. He feels like home. He’s definitely gonna help you with learning how to skateboard!! He also tries to show off a little bit, but he falls at least 50% of the time. It gets you to laugh, at least! It’s really fun to skateboard with him, though. He teaches you all of the coolest tricks, and he gets so excited when you nail ‘em. Skating around the Hidden City is an awesome past time, once you get the hang of it. He also brings his speakers so he can play music while you guys skate around. (He plays a joint playlist you guys made together. It fucking slaps <3) 

He likes to write you songs. They’re really sweet, too. He gets a little embarrassed about singing it to you the first time, it’s adorable. But after seeing how excited you got? He overcomes that nervousness instantly. His singing voice is breathtaking, when he’s serious about it.  (On a less romantic and more goofy note... he totally plays meme songs. He deliberately looks up tabs for them, and if he can’t find ‘em, he’ll make his own. His default is Wonderwall, but he can also play a mean Roundabout. Also The Mii Theme But Every Note Is C.) Loves picking you up princess-style. He’s still a little taller than you, so you KNOW he’s gonna take advantage of that.  King of nicknames. “Angel” and “Sunshine” are his defaults for you, although he’s made some that are more personal to the experiences you guys have shared together. (ALSO WWWWW I LOVE YOU TOO DUDE, I ALWAYS SEE YOU IN MY NOTES AND IM.... <3 IF I WAS ON MOBILE I’D BE DROPPING LIKE A MILLION HEART EMOJIS RN)
