Hello, I hope your having a nice day, can I request Yandere 1st Years + Grim (Platonic) with a Komi Reader? (From Komi can’t Communicate)
Reader’s known for being incredibly beautiful, intelligent, athletic and elegant in everything she does, however she has crippling Social Anxiety and ends up scaring everyone away with her ‘mean/scary’ look so everyone tends to avoid her (When it’s actually herself that’s nervous since she doesn’t know what to say)
Except for Ace, Deuce and Grim after they spent time with Reader in the mine, they discovered her anxiety she wrote it out so now they’re mostly the ones who do the talking for her and try to help her reach her goal of making 100 Friends in NRC, even though they both think that’s a ‘weird/bad goal’ because this IS NRC
Reader loves cats, so she spoils Grim and Lucius (The latter likes laying in her lap and even follows her around) with pets, treats and affection and helping her friends with studying since she gets perfect marks
How would they react to hearing Reader’s voice for the first time? Not to mention have Reader tell write out that she made a friend all by herself who visits her dorm at night and does nightly walks (You know who it is)
Tumblr media
Komi-San Reader | Yandere Twisted Wonderland
You’re quiet and intimidating but not because others find you scary. The exact opposite, they’re obsessed. You’re athletic, you’re smart, you’re beautiful, you’re kind, and the list goes on. Without so much as opening your mouth, the school is at its hands and knees all for you. Little do they know about your silent struggle, not like your dearest first-year friends. More than anyone they know how hard you work and if their hearts could overfill with love for you it already has.  So imagine your stalkers' friends; reaction to you’re never heard before voice:
Tumblr media
Ace Trappola
“Aw man, (Y/n) I can’t begin to explain how much of a pain he is! With his moodiness, we’re not going to win the game.”
“...”
“Don’t say that, I am great but not that great.”
“...Y-you c-can d-do it!” 
He plays 10x better 
All while running on his excitement and embarrassment
“Whoa, Ace! W-were you holding out on us!”
Everyone is floored that he’s suddenly just doing so well
He’s keeping your quiet cheers to himself 
Replaying it in his head
He will teasingly ask you for a recording even when you cutely shake your head
“Oi oi don’t get all shy now, you were doing so well!”
He does circle back having already written down the names of those who turned their heads
If they’re so inclined to hear your voice in a roaring crowd 
Then they should be alright with their ears no longer working 
He’s being merciful when he does just this
And if you mention any mysterious friends, he’d no doubt try to follow up on that same treatment
Tumblr media
Deuce Spade
“M-maybe being an honor student was too high of a goal.”
You shake your head
“Ahh I appreciate it, (Y/n) but if I’m going to flunk again I’ll be in trouble. Both with Riddle and my mom, I just can’t measure up. ”
“You…are a good student.”
He blushes 
“G-g-g-g-good j-job (Y/n)!”
He knows how much this is taking for you to try 
But he just can’t keep it together 
He’s among the first to hear your precious voice
He has to be the only one
He doesn’t know what this feeling is but he doesn’t want to share
It especially rubs him the wrong way when you mention a mysterious friend 
He decides to wait it out
See who this new friend he’s going to gut he has to meet
Tumblr media
Epel Felmier
“Grrrr I can’t stand it! Why can’t I be taken seriously? I just hate my face!”
“...”
“Don’t hafta lie ta me, (Y/n)! I know I’m not handsome.”
“...I….th-th-”
“Huh?” 
“I think you’re handsome.”
“Aw shucks, (Y/n)!”
He definitely wasn’t was expecting that
You’re just the sweetest as he predicted
He already keeps the notebook you’ve lost+ gone through with your written words
And the apple cores he lovingly retrieves from Ramshackle’s trash no doubt cultivating whatever ends up growing from them
He avoids the impulse to tear his book open at the mention of a new friend 
Well I hope they like a poison-apple
Tumblr media
Jack Howl 
“I have a magift practice later on…are you still going to come?”
You nod your head
“T-thank you, I’d appreciate your support from the stands.”
When he says that he doesn’t expect you to actually whisper anything out
“G-go Jack!”
His keen ears pick it up and suddenly he’s breezing through obstacles like never before
And of course, he did his mate practically cheered him on
It makes it much earlier to replay that encouragement when he’s fighting for your honor his ownership of you
No doubt Savvannclaw is filled with your admirers
But some are a little too bold
So leave it to your mate to take action first
And while he’s at it he might as well guard your home more intensely
Tumblr media
Sebek Zigvolt
“WHAT A MARVEL HUMAN! YOU’VE TAMED ALL THE FERAL FELINES ON CAMPUS!” 
“...”
“WELL FOR A HUMAN IT IS DECENT WORK! PERHAPS YOU DO HAVE–”
“C-can you please be quiet?”
“...?....!..Y-you think y-you, a mere human, can tell me what to do?!” 
Yes you can, having the loud half-fae go down two whole octaves was a feat
And he keeps replaying the moment in his head specifically the way your lips moved
Burning hot all over he’s not really listening to anyone for the next week month
But once he’s broken out of it he’s determined to repeat the miracle
And it seems it works best if your alone?
Then he’ll be sure to chase off the gaggle of scum+ admirers who you claim to be friends with
And he thinks nothing of a midnight friend…that is if you’re alone with them than that’s completely unacceptable
Tumblr media
Grim
“Henchhuman! Everyone is soooo mean! Why doesn’t anyone like me? I know I’m so cool and maybe that’s why–”
“I like you.”
“Well of course you w–W-wait did you speak? T-t to me! Whoopee, I’m going to tell everyone the great Grim is who you spoke to first!” 
He runs off to do just that 
Bragging to anyone who would listen
He has to dodge a lot of assassination hits that day
But it gives him the content whenever that icky feeling comes up sometimes
And as for your ‘Hornton’ friend he’s seen him and next time he comes around he’ll boast all about his greatness and how you spoke to him

Random Yandere Headcanons: Platonic vs Romantic: Grim
Tumblr media
Romantic: 
He gets jealous easily so it’s going to be hard for his darling to have another relationship while also dealing with a pouting Grim reaper. He will reap anyone who gets on his nerves the most. a friend who is getting too close, someone trying to get with his darling and even just some petty reasons.  
Platonic Friend: 
He is more lenient when it comes to them hanging out with others, but they still must hang out with him the most. He has to have his own level meaning that if he is their best friend then he is their only best friend. 
Platonic Sibling: 
If he doesn't like someone in their life, he will reap them. He will let them have their space to a point since he will be checking up on them every other day. He will always want to know what’s going on in their life, big or small. 
Platonic Parent: 
Very much like the sibling part but they will have less space than a sibling would. Plus, he’s stricter with them. He can be both fun and strict but depending on how they act he will be stricter.

dead! reader who just recently died and is met with yandere! grim reaper...
"wtf are you actually the grim reaper?"
a gorgeous stallion of a man is right in front of you and you're expected to believe that he's death himself??
"um, no,"
that's right! why would he be a grim reaper? he's too hot to be the one to take your soul-
"i'm actually the grim toucher."
...
the what? you must've misheard him.
"ahaha, i think i heard you wrong-"
"i'm the grim toucher and i'm here to touch you."
you pause, looking up at him before you feel your heart start to pound. wait, wait, wait! why's he getting closer and wriggling his fingers like that???
"what the-!"
"I've been waiting to have you as mine for so long... come here my sweet human!"
that's when you realise that he doesn't even have his scythe.
oh, no wonder he was called the grim toucher instead.

I just had a thought- how would Grim and the ramshackle ghosts feel about all the stuff happening to us?
Especially if the yandere(s) are coming over to our dorm too! Would they, depending on the severity of the yandere and their specific actions, range from supporting it cuz yknow reader gets to be happy with someone who treats them well and loves them to concerned because sweetie please get yourself outta there 😭
I can imagine Grim is NOT alright with it and for a multitude of reasons, they are taking away your time with HIM, and once he pays more attention to the bigger picture? Yeah messed up things be occasionally happening that could very well hurt you!! He does not like that!!!
im just imagining Grim being visibly not alright and reader will not have it either when it comes to him, they are a PACKAGE deal and that is that no matter which yandere comes their way 🗣️
we have many people more alright with Grim being reader’s number one priority, or yknow silently(?) wishing it was them, poor Grim and Reader man encountering yandere after yandere 😭
Grim would give us a look if we expressed any sort of romantic interest in any yandere I think lol
‘Pologies if it was too long or ranty, though I am curious who you think would be the most and least alright with this? I imagine Leona and Ace (legally required to bring up Ace he’s my all time fav next to Grim) would NOT like it lmao
.. first off, this is the longest ask ive ever gotten, I gotta just say oml thank you so much????? You, wrote all of this, fpr me?? 🥹🥹🥹💖💖💖 this literally made my week thank you so much bestie 🥹😭 second off, this inspired me to rant too, I hope you enjoy!- (not proofread btw)
So im mainly gonna focus on grim, no offence to ramshackle ghost fans, I just really like the silly little fire-cat/rat/weasel/creature. He was literally our first friend, our first companion (I bet Ace and grim bicker on who was your first).
And oh boy, guy is NOT HAPPY when he sees all these dumbasses vying for your attention and either trying to butter him up with tuna (which will not work on the mighty grim!) or ugnore him completely! Like you stated you and him are a package deal! Get the prefect and get their silly hungry companion!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now, grim surely uses his position as your closest companion as a safety net, they can't kill off the closest you have to family in this world! Guess they gotta live with him if they wanna have a life with you.
Ace hates that grim was your friend before him, feeling annoyed whenever he bullied (Juice) Deuce about being friends with you before him only for grim to butt in. Ace isn't too annoyed with grim though, and grim thinks that Ace is one of the better choises of the roster you have, they're both friends after all.
Tumblr media
Of course most students in the cast don't liek "sharing" you with grim, especially the more territorial ones. Leona is probably the worst, I mean come on they're both feline looking creatures. With scent being a heavy thing for felines (yes even beastmen dont come at me) Leona is not happy to have his scent on you be muddied by the little rodent (the greatest mage of all, grim). Probably the worst choise since they're just gonna bicker to the end of the world..
Tumblr media
Floyd doesn't like this either! Not fair that he has to share!! And with grim no less.. Floyd results in biting you instead of scenting, his chompers being good for nibbling on you. He also has the advantage that grim is sorta afraid of him (honestly who wouldn't be? Especially yan Floyd...).
Tumblr media
Kalim tries to brime grim, with anything he could ever think off! Unlimited tuna for grim, and the best there is as well!! Nything grim could ever want on a silver platter, only if grim let's kalim marry you! That alone doesn't sound too bad, but that unsettling horrifying servant that follows Kalim around. He knows what jamil can do, and he sure does NOT want you with that dude!- guy is manipulative and creepy (he would definelty seperate you and grim!-)
Tumblr media
Malleus... Malleus scares grim, guys is honestly horrifying. Threatening to curse him into an eternal slumber so he can whisk you away from him, he doesn't want that! You would also get sad id malleus did that, so luckily the possessive dragon had to share (for now...)
Tumblr media
Whoever you choose, grim would probably disapprove, guy thinks of you as family (he will never admit that tho). He cares about you, and he is not okay with the invasion of privacy from these teenagers! >:(
I know you didn't ask fpr any drawing or such, but I couldn't help myself sorry 🤭 hope you like my ramblings back at you!

The Nightmare Before Christmas Lost in The Book: Over The Spiral Hill
{1} {2}
Tumblr media
Being stuck in a strange book was not what you expected, now you had to worry about your fellow Ramshackle doormates!  You hoped they would be fine, without Yuu or you. You glanced at Yuu and Grim, the two students happily looking over the strange pumpkin patch.
You look away only for a moment, hoping to see what was over the garden wall. Instead what caught your interest was the odd scarecrow hidden in the shadows. Raising a brow, you walk closer, hoping the moonlight would shine on the object.
“(Y/N)! Look at this one!”
You pause, you turn attention back on Grim as you see the little furball try to pick it up. 
You sigh, feeling the wind play with ends of your clothes, about to walk over to the two. An idea forms in your mind!
Kneeling down, you notice the scarecrow seemed much closer than before. Gently picking up the smallest fruit, the unmoving straw body was MUCH closer now!
You tilt your head, eyes shining with curiosity. You notice the sign above its head, “Halloween… Town.”
Reading aloud, you turn away, a sweet laugh leaving you, flustered as you hold the autumn fruit closer. “I… Hope you don’t mind.” You say to the scarecrow, “I promise to return it.”
Turning away, you carefully walk through the pumpkin patch towards your companions. Letting out a cough to grab their attention, you hold the pumpkin as if it were a skull.
“To be.. Or Not! To be.. Such is the question..!” You quote, expecting a laugh. Instead, Grim frowns in confusion. “To be what? A pumpkin?” He questions.
“No. It’s Shaksphere? Yuu, please tell me you know!” The Prefect shrugs, tapping their chin thoughtfully. “It sounds familiar…”
Going back to the scarecrow, you lean up against the wooden pool. Fluttering your lashes dreamily, letting out an over-dramatic sigh, “My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite.” You state, raising the object close to your lips, as they pucker.
Yuu huffs, about to retrieve the fruit as Grim lays on their shoulder.
“I still don’t get it! But whoever this shake-ysphera guy is, sure is dramatic.”
“Well, that line was Juliets… From Romeo and Juliet…” You murmur as you chuckle at Yuu snatching the pumpkin away, placing it next to its brethren on the soil. “Rome and Jule?”
“No… Okay let me explain.”
Heading to the other side of the scarecrow, you say another quote. “A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life; Whose misadventured piteous overthrows. Do with their death bury their parents’ strife.” 
“Hmm… Henchman, do you get it?” Grim questions the other magicless human. They nodded thoughtfully, the wind tussling their hair.
“Kinda like... Christmas and Halloween, two opposites and can’t collide.” Yuu states proudly like they figured out the code!
“Oh so like that made-up holiday you created during winter!” Grim states, pointing a paw at you.
“IT’S NOT-How is that even-?” You groan, moving away from the protector of the patch. You try to explain, or direct the conversation elsewhere.
A glove-like hand grasps your own, as an unfamiliar laugh rings behind you, Yuu and Grim gape in fear while you  freeze. A young man with a grin steps into your view, his grip like a spider's web, strong yet delicate when holding your palm. 
“I greet you with a kiss, for this wonderful encounter..~!” 
-
“Gino! What am I to do with these!?” Foulworth asks his companion, holding the box of decorations in worry. “(Y/N) and Yuu instructed us before, but this not as simple as I hoped.”
The fox-beastman grumbled, poking at a strange velvet hat with a cotton ball placed on top. Mixed in with the other Halloween items placed inside the brown box.
Rollo scoffed from his seat, hiding his sour words into his silken handkerchief. Watching the two fumble with green and purple tinsel as the ghosts aid them.
-
[Ya’ll, I’m head over heels for mister Skele-boi over hear. He’s voiced by one of my all-time va’s. So I’m just in awe! I’ve been squealing all day about him! I might, possibly write for this event if anyone is interested. Let me know!]

Grim Reaper Reader [in tears]: Your people are suffering. For as long as they reside behind those gates, I cannot give them the peace so many require. Your bodies are not built for immortality... Please.... Help me.
Yan (Soon to be) Murderer: So what you're saying is..... I should kill everybody in town and bring their bodies to you-
Grim Reaper Reader: That isn't what I- Where are you going?! Please, have mercy!
Yan Murderer: Haha, don't worry! I'll give them all the mercy they need- When I cut their throats! See you soon- Byeeee!

[Page 2]
It’s the ClochEpel horror AU! I realized that I have copious amounts of AUs for RookLoche but never any for ClochEpel, so here it is. I’ve had the sketch sitting for a month, and decided to finally finish it.
Premise: Set in a world “without” magic, Cloche had always been intrigued with the occult. From animal sacrifices to ghostly games, she was interested in them all. On the other hand, Epel wasn’t so keen on the subject. He found it weird and creepy, maybe even a little childish, but that didn’t scare him away from her. After learning that Cloche felt bored of the relationship because she’s always doing what Epel wanted, he wanted to prove his devotion to her by joining Cloche in one of her attempts at a ritual. Too bad this will be her last one.

Put Another "X" On The Calendar [Yandere Angel of Death!Sunday/Reader]
Tumblr media
Unreliable Synopsis: To be rejected by the angel of death himself… you must be heaven's favorite chew toy if he won’t let you die as intended. But this year will be the last time you'd play with his games. [5.6k words]
CW/Tags: gn reader, explicit and detailed suicidal themes, alcohol, very soft yandere angel!Sunday, dead dove: do not eat. Please prioritize your mental health first; you matter more than you think. This is first and foremost an expression/vent of real struggles, not a romanticization of the tags mentioned nor does it promote it as a solution.

𝟒𝟑,𝟖𝟐𝟒 𝐒𝐘𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐌 𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐔𝐑𝐄. Nostalgia has grown unfamiliar for the past days— you can’t even fathom having the same bitter acknowledgement you had years prior. Someone once said a person shall always remain a stranger to themselves, and you dearly wish you still recall who that was so you could ask if it is in the same degree you feel now. Too often does the mind ask the necessity to get up every morning, until mornings become noons— and finally, evenings. Minimizing your waking hours as much as possible to avoid confronting the state of your own mind and body.
Today is Saturday. Or was it Sunday? You can’t remember. You only remember dates when there’s a deadline. And here you are, with another late submission.
Barely dressed for the snow, you leaned against the cold door.
“You’re here again? Why do I keep finding you here?”
The man turned around.

It’s him again. The man that keeps hanging around your university’s Architecture Building rooftop. 
He smiled softly. “I could say the same to you.”
Despite the coldness of December, you came here with nothing to shield from it but the blazer your mom bought years ago for her office presentation. This stranger was almost as terrible as you were, in an opposing sense. He was draped all over, but his style seemed almost more overprepared for fall when it’s winter.
You let out a soft noise. 
Sometimes, you look forward to seeing this stranger on the rooftop. 
Trudging towards him, you asked plainly. “Who are you even waiting for?”
“I usually tell people that it’s my sister.”
You decided to ignore his strange phrasing.
“Can’t you two meet elsewhere?” You spat, unable to hide the disdain. Your voice made you cringe. More than anyone, you know how vile and cynical you truly are, but to let it be known now is counterintuitive. “I’m sure there are better meeting spots. Dreamjolt Cafe’s just around the corner.”
The stranger looked down, his eyes almost fluttering shut with a tense gulp. “I suppose there are more convenient locations. But…”
“But?”
He stared at you. His bright golden eyes that many complimented in your view looked as dull as the snow. No doubt he’s beyond human. This handsome stranger has no right to exist. He only serves to remind you how much you lacked while also blocking the sweet release you’ve been chasing.
Sometimes, you wish he was as lonely as you.
“But to leave is to take away far more than just promise,” he whispered but no breath painted the air. “To leave is to let someone down. Somehow, I feel as though I do not need to explain this to you.”
“You don’t have to.” You said out of disinterest.
“Other than that, I enjoy coming here and staring at the sky. The sight here reminds me of my purpose.” He stared at you intensely. “There's always a paradise that needs to be built. That vow is like the sun in the sky— perhaps I'll melt and fall before reaching it... But some hardships I must endure."
He took off his scarf and reached it out to you.
You blinked, raising a hand in protest. “No need.”
“I need it the least. Take it. You’re cold.”
Most days, you wish you could make him as lonely as you. 
“I don’t feel anything and I don’t like owing anyone anything.” The words slip out of you easily.
You don’t want to extend your time here for a random stranger.
“I know.” He muttered. “But still, take it. If I’m not careful, it may just be the only physical thing I can leave behind.”
For a moment, the sun and earth were silenced. You took the scarf, circling the soft fabric with your fingers. It was azure with speckled star patterns, ranging from complex to the most simple X-s and dots. You didn’t say another word. It was understood from then on that you both might’ve come here for the same reason. The rooftop was the haven for when the physical conditions that existence brings are met with crushing defeat. If he asked you the same question you had moments prior, you’d have but one reply:
It’s the tallest building on campus; I came here for the view.
With dissipating reluctance, he approached you and wrapped the scarf around your neck. His gloved fingers were shaking, but you made no comment. As you stare up, you’re greeted with the sight of his flushed cheeks and pursed lips. Yet, you’ve no motivation to return the scarf. 
Maybe the frostbite makes him feel a little more alive too.
As if to affirm your suspicions, he took off his own gloves. The act made the skin he hid with the long sleeves of his jacket visible. It was not your intent to be nosy, yet you saw the bandages wrapped around him. Gauze pads in places you’d expect it to be. The sight must’ve distracted you long enough, since the moment you looked at your own hands— it wore the black gloves he donned.
You’re wearing his scarf and gloves— he has nothing. No fur, no anything. Just him and a black coat, white shirt, and pants. Yet his limbs did not tremble. The temperature had no effect on him.
Finally, he gave you his name. 
“You can call me… Sunday. And you?”
Sunday.
You blinked. “Like the day after Saturday?”
He chuckled humorlessly. “Exactly like the day after Saturday.”
With that, you decided you do not like him.
Call it competitiveness, call it frustration— name the emotion for whatever is convenient— but there’s no pleasant note to describe him. Objectively and instinctively, Sunday is predictably a good man. But the maggots that crawl inside you scream just how much he has no place in your life. They writhe behind your eyelids, burning with an unspoken illness that wanted him miserable.
“(Y/n). (Y/n) (L/n).” You answered. “Realbrook Dorms. Room 404.”
To die beautifully and meaningfully. You don’t have that privilege.
Sunday’s eyebrows furrowed. “Why did you tell me that?”
The dorm may just be the only physical thing you can leave behind.
“I don’t know.” You laughed, averting your gaze.
“Just in case you want your scarf back, I suppose.”
And you know what?
You’re sure he knows that you’re broken, too.
Tumblr media
2) In the past month, have you actually had any thoughts about killing yourself?
🟥 YES
⬛ NO
3) Have you been thinking about how you might do this?
🟥 YES
⬛ NO
Tumblr media
𝐀𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧'𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧— but the higher beings routing out pest control. Entering the classroom filled with those bright and beautiful, those who were born to be who their program says they are, has patted you with the crown of envy.
No amount of pomodoros, no higher statistic in your Focus Plant app, can make you even a fraction of their genius. Depressing, but true. 
How can you even compete with a room of intellectual gatekeepers?
You’d ask a question, hoping to learn, and all they hand out is a vague response. Not an explanation, but enough for them to say “oh, but I replied, haven’t I?”
These Penaconian Science High School graduates surely are the cream of the crop, and they won’t spare other people’s hopes and dreams to get what they want. 
It’s fine, you tell yourself. This is a highly competitive university. You expected this. It has a name. Your tuition is free. Everyone is a scholar. You just have to hold your breath and live through this. For the future you promised your loved ones.
Of course, assuming you can exhale after 3 more years. Assuming you still have a beating heart inside.
You bought another notebook today after you lost your previous one. The old one’s probably hidden under your “organized mess”. 
But at least you can force yourself to write good things again.
𝟷𝟸.𝟶𝟿.𝟸𝟶𝟸𝟺
𝙸 𝚝𝚘𝚘𝚔 𝚊 𝟼𝚔 𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚙 𝚠𝚊𝚕𝚔.
Walking, not running or jogging, is the only healthy hobby you have. Writing consumes you while art reminds you of your worthlessness. It’s a short sentence, but that’s fine. That’s why you bought a pocket sized notebook in the first place. 
Having that as a first entry is 3 miles better than a detailed plan of which sea you’ll last disappear to.
Tumblr media
4) Have you had these thoughts and had some intention of acting on them?
🟥 YES
⬛ NO
Tumblr media
𝐀𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞�� 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐝𝐚𝐲. You opened your dorm room. Thankfully, as it was the only stroke of luck you had that day, none of your roommates were around. You let your bag slid from your shoulders down with a loud thud.
For a few minutes, you squandered it salting the hard boiled eggs you bought with your own tears.On the floor no one was industrious enough to sweep, you sat. You had no energy to climb up your bed. It was just you and awkward silence. 
It’s Christmas season.
You have no good memories of it. You barely left your room.
Maybe you should’ve known that every December would compete for which year was the worst. The best December had to be the year when you’d receive terrible exchange gift presents like cheap junk food while you and your mother chipped in to buy a great gun toy. Then the worst was your first christmas without that family member you were closest to. When you’re reminded how deeply grief can cut through while everyone’s in good cheer.
There’s a knock on your door. 
Quickly, you put your jacket back on and wiped your nose. You twisted the doorknob open, already feeling terrible for the housekeepers. They often report to your parents when they decide to visit. So you’ll just slip in your excuse in the middle of the conversation.
“Hi, sorry Miss Rena, I’m sick right now— cold, really. Did I accidentally leave my water bottle on the study hall again—”
“Good evening, (Y/n). May I trouble you for a moment?”
You flinched at the familiar but oddly placed sound.
“Sunday?” Your eyebrows furrowed. “How did you— oh, right, I did tell you what my dorm was.”
Here he was again. You had half the mind to think he would only spawn on the rooftop, but you were wrong.
“It’s rather reckless of you, and I hope you will refrain from doing that to other men.” 
There was a dark tilt in his tone and his gaze matched it perfectly. Years ago, that could’ve put shivers down your spine. But you no longer care for most things.
You can only mimic a nervous laugh. Mimicking what you would’ve sounded if you still cared for your own safety.
Sunday offered you a small smile.
“How many times do you walk per day this month?”
“Huh?”
What a strange question.
He looked at the window. “Let’s walk outside. You haven't done ten thousand steps in a day for quite a while now.”
“What a rude assumption.” You scoffed.
“Was I wrong?” He asked, but the innocent tone made you second guess the teasing nature of his words.
If you two were close, your roommate’s unsuspecting pillows would’ve hit him square on the face. Sunday opened your wardrobe and grabbed the scarf you gave him.
…Why does he know where you kept it?
He opened the door wider.
“Come on,” he replied. “Let’s take a walk.”
Tumblr media
You don’t know why, but your guard is always down when you’re with him.
Maybe you no longer have any sense of self-preservation. Which makes sense, given your real goal. However, unlike most, you do not love being loved. Being cared for ultimately turns into a debt to be repaid in your eyes. Yet, you couldn’t stop Sunday when he wrapped the scarf snugly around your neck. 
The two of you walked around the area. Sometimes, he’d talk about the people, animals, and objects of nature that piqued both your interest. Despite being nearly strangers, he was oddly calming to be around. 
Sunday held your hand as you both walked, like it was a matter of time till it crumbled. His eyes had this persistent pleading you refused to acknowledge. Even in silence, it was asking you the worst request.
To stay alive.
“Why did I cross your mind?” You asked him. “Why did you suddenly visit my dorm?”
He stopped walking.
“... Instinct.”
“Instinct?”
“Just a feeling, that something might…” He muttered a word nearly inaudible. “If I was away. Humans are not perfect individuals. Quite the contrary, their hearts are filled with contradictions at every moment.”
Sunday’s gaze softened, hurt.
“Which is why, even if you tell me you are doing fine, I am inclined to believe that the opposite is the case.”
“...I see.”
You subtly tried to get out of his hold, but he didn’t let you go.
“Why do you care?” You continued walking, and he resumed too. He always matched your walking speed. That in itself felt nice. That someone would adjust for you, that is. 
“I believe it’s… human nature to care.” Sunday hummed. “Listening has always been my job.”
You laughed. “I guess so.”
Quietly, you took note of that.
“Here.” Sunday pointed at the benches.”Let’s take a rest.”
The university nearby— not yours— just installed more carved wooden benches. When he sat down, it felt like it was made for him. Quietly, you sat down beside him. He sits up straight, unlike you. You’re hunched back, fiddling with your hands as though there was an invisible toy that stole your attention.
Sunday sighed softly. "The evening light does tend to settle the heart, does it not? A quiet reminder that even the longest days must come to their end."
You looked at the sky.
"I guess. The day ends, but what comes after doesn’t feel much different.” You chuckled. “Same old suffering.”
“Perhaps there is something in the simple act of continuing. Something... precious in that.” He said. “We all walk our own paths. Though it may be lonely, as long as we keep moving forward, we won't forget each other.”
"Sure, if you're feeling masochistic enough in waiting for something that never comes." You huffed. "I've grown past that phase. Multiple times."
“Life has a way of leading humans in circles, only to place us where they are meant to be, even if they cannot yet see it."
“And spoiler alert, I’m not meant much for anything.” You looked up to meet his gaze. 
“But thank you, anyway. It’s nice to have a brief respite, even if it comes from the man I keep spotting on the rooftop.”
“And I’ll continue to materialize there if you refuse to have a truce with yourself.” He half-chided, half-teased. “I am the only one who truly understands you, who knows the depth of your heart, even when you can’t bear to look at it yourself. And until you no longer go to the roof to see the view from up there, I’ll continue to linger.”
There’s a blank expression on your face. An expression no human should be able to read.
But he can.
“(Y/n), if you need anything. I’ll be there. As I always have.” Sunday looked back at the winter sky. 
“And I’ll remind you of that everyday if I have to. Because that is what I choose to do. If I’m forced to take you, I—” Sunday closed his eyes. “I don’t know what I’d do.”
You’re not smart, but you understood what this was about.
You’re his.
You may not "know" him, but you’re his reason. His only reason.
And wishing for death threatens all his plans.
Tumblr media
5) Have you started to work out or worked out the details of how to kill yourself? Did you intend to carry out this plan?
🟥 YES
⬛ NO
Tumblr media
𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 just as you were making weak attempts to tug the sleep you’ve been missing for 5 years. There’s supposed to be an Engineering BINGO event today. You skipped it and thanked the campus for once that there’s no classes. Your rough, useless hand frantically attempted to hang up as if it’s no different from snoozing an alarm. But it was Hailee. The only person who ever regularly talks to you.
You answered, voice groggy at 3 PM.
“Heyyy (Y/n), where are you?”
“Hail—” you muttered. “Just sleeping.”
“You’re not coming? Cocona just won an IPad!”
“Good for her, good for her.” You didn’t really register what she said. “Since there’s no class I figured I’d just sleep in, you know?”
“Ah, yeah, I get that. I lowkey wanna go home too, but Max is having fun.”
“Yeah.” You yawned. 
“Hey, kinda random, but I just passed by Madeleine earlier.”
“Yeah well she’s always everywhere all at once.”
“Sure, but she was at the registrar.” Hailee paused. “She’s getting a transcript of records, I think.”
“What for?”
“I think she wants to transfer.”
You sat up.
“Really? Well, shit. I want in, too.”
“Yeah, same.” Hailee’s tone turned serious. “I want out of this hellhole too.”
“Hey Hailee?”
“Yuh?”
“I’ll call you back.”
“Oh, okay, sur—”
You messaged Madeleine.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You paused.
Tumblr media
Why are you telling her this.
You and her barely talked.
You and Madeleine messaged each other more for a while. Each notif was a half-hearted argument against going through both plans. Words of how neither of you should go through it leaning as a suggestion rather than a real conviction. You'd agree, but you both know it’s just words. 
She didn’t mention her reasons outside academics, and you didn’t mention yours.
The hesitation lingers, but you both danced around it, sending stickers of people hugging, pretending you'll back out, even though you know you both know you won’t. Neither of you is truly convinced, and yet, the conversation went on a seemingly positive note.
It’s fine.
At least now, you know, that you aren’t the only one who tried their hardest with nothing to return to.
But there’s a voice in your head telling you no. 
It doesn’t belong to you. It is not your voice.
Yet it begged and begged.
Please, don’t do it.
And for now, you’ll pretend you’ll listen to him too.
Tumblr media
6) Have you engaged in, attempted, or planned any actions with the intention of ending your life? Examples: Taking pills, attempting to shoot yourself, self-harm (e.g., cutting), attempting hanging, taking pills but not swallowing, holding a gun but changing your mind or having it taken away, going to a high place but not jumping, gathering pills, acquiring a weapon, giving away belongings, writing a will or suicide note, etc.
🟥 YES

Tumblr media
𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠. No one asked you to draw, but you figured since the man on the chair heavily recommended you get back to your old hobbies, you’d draw the people who consider you as a friend. So, you strayed from sketching topics that lead the mind wandering. 
Tumblr media
You stared at the screen blankly.
Tumblr media
Genuinely, you were caught off guard.
Careful. Don’t fool yourself that a small “thank you” means they would be there for you. You’ve been here before. Don’t be a pushover.
You closed your eyes.
No, thank you, Monica.
“Just a few more.” You muttered. “Just a few more portraits. Just one more holiday greeting. Just one more late video animatic birthday gift for Alex that I didn’t give weeks ago. And then—”
You can finally pardon yourself with the right to die.
Don’t.
Please don’t.
pleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon'tpleasedon't-
Your messenger app crashed.
You turned off your phone.
Tumblr media
7) If yes, was this within the past 3 months?
🟥 YES
⬛ NO
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
You blinked.
A hand. A hand reaching out that isn’t “Sunday”?
Really?
Tumblr media
You laughed.
You laughed so loudly, you’d be glad if you remembered the fact that no one was around. 
It just feels so inhumane.
It is inhumane. 
So inhumane, that you felt offended for the last shred of humanity you thought you no longer had.
You cackled, feeling a drop on the back of your wrist.
The one time someone actually noticed you did not feel well. 
And they worry about someone else. 
You are such a fucking joke.
Your body shook, laughing at this unintentional cruelty. Air-like bile rises up your throat— your eyes burning. A few more laughter escaped your turtle lipped mouth. You couldn’t tear your pained gaze away from the screen. You wiped your eyes.
The funniest bit?
Crying won’t change a damn thing.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s nearly 2025, and no good thought crossed your mind.
Just like your father said: everything is evil, it’s only a question of how much you’ll let the devil consume you.
Today is Tuesday. Or was it Wednesday? The man doesn't care to remember. He only remembers dates when there’s a deadline. And here he was, arriving at 11:59 pm. Just in time to stop another would-be tragedy. 
Barely dressed for the snow, “Sunday” leaned against the cold door, almost out of breath.
“You're here. Why must I keep finding you here…”
His purpose turned around.
It’s you. His ward that keeps hanging around the university’s Architecture Building rooftop… Now standing on top of your parents’ roof. 
You frowned deeply, tipping your weight slightly. “I could say the same to you.”
Before Sunday could utter a word, your phone buzzed. 
You grimaced as you saw the alarm. “Won't you look at thaaaat?! It's already 2 am. I'm so fucking stupid. I must've thought I set an alarm for 12 instead of 2.”
“Yes… Happy New Year, (Y/n). I hope your 2025 will be blessed.” Sunday spoke softly. His heart raced as he made slow movements to approach you. The man hoped he'd be close enough to pull you away from the edge.
“How much did you drink?”
You cackled.
“Weren't you already supposed to know the answer to that,” you slurred. “Septimus? THE Bronze Melodia?”
That was the exact moment… when your former guardian angel learned what it felt like for blood to run cold.
Once a guardian angel alongside his sister, Septimus was a protector of humanity, driven by a belief that he alone could heal the world’s ills. His perceived purpose blinded him of what was humanity’s true will, until the heavens cast him out for overstepping. Stripped of his former glory, he became the Angel of Death, his once-bright feathers now hidden in bandages. With each soul he reaped, the haunting melody of his fall lingers, a reminder of a savior who couldn't save himself.
And so, he only hoped that he could save you.
His one and lonely human.
Stirred awake were your memories when you first saw him on that rooftop. Even then, you knew who he was. It was the same fledgeling who kept you company in your silent home. The boy who listened to you talk for hours while everyone else “felt” a ghost. 
No matter how much he tried to look like the image of comfort, he would never be the character you used to love, in the same vein you can never return to the bright cheer you used to have.
“(Y/n), please…” Sunday begged. “Get off the roof.”
“My parents are asleep.” You hummed. “It’s 2 am. I’m on liquid courage. This is the only chance I won’t chicken out.”
“H-How did you know?” He asked. “Who I am?”
“I’m smart when it comes to things that don’t matter,” you cackled. “But ask me how to draw up a diagram for a unit process and I got absolutely nothing.”
You took a step back, which made Sunday take one harsh step forward. “DON’T.”
“Septimus, is it true?” You laughed again. “That you’re an angel of death?”
Slowly, he nodded.
“Yes.”
“Why haven’t you taken me yet? Does God have other plans?”
“T… Truth is, you should’ve died long ago.”
You’re not surprised.
“When I tried to open my guts with scissors, or when I tried to hang myself?” You huffed.
“Longer than that. I had to always snatch you away from your fate so you could have the chance to live on.” The angel spoke, voice weary. “I want to see you live another day. It’s what stripped me out of your guardianship in the first place.”
Once again, you’re not surprised.
“So it’s you…”
The anger in your voice was almost tangible. 
“So you’re the reason why I’m alive.” Your eyes twitched. “It’s you who kept stopping me.”
Sunday raised a hand. “I-I just, I want you to live long enough to see that a paradise can still be built—”
“My paradise is the ocean I want to drown myself in.” You spat. “Don’t talk about paradise when you know I can’t reach it.”
Sunday’s eyebrows furrowed. “That is not true—”
“Who else?”
“Who… else?” 
He’s taking ragged breaths. 
You knew it. Your hypothesis was right.
Keeping you alive is turning the angel of death human.
Many say angels do not have free will.
But this is what he chose to do.
Suddenly, his words on the roof made sense. Why he desperately wanted you to keep his scarf. Maybe there’s truth to it. Angels do not lie. Perhaps if he failed, he would’ve turned into ash and not human. 
Most days, you wished you could make him as lonely as you. 
Looks like in the end, you got what you wanted.
“Who else wants (Y/n) (L/n) to live to see another day?” You asked.
“Plen— some.” Septimus corrected his lie. “Some will want you to keep pushing forward.”
“Will, not would. Will is too late for anything.”
“Will because you don’t give them a chance to show they care.” He argued.
“They’d rather see me in a coffin than put in any real effort.”
“Why,” his voice croaked. “Why do you only assume the worst in people?”
“You know why. You know every ‘why’ there is.”
He inhaled sharply. They say to translate your thoughts and dreams into a creativity worth plagiarizing. Yet, when you’re one foot on the roof and one foot out the metaphorical door, you didn’t give a shit on becoming artistically verbose.
“No wonder I’ve never broken a bone.” You laughed. “And damn, I’d rather take a broken bone than whatever hell you’re putting me through.”
Sunday was close enough to touch you.
“Because despite everything, you are still you.” Sunday cooed, trapping you in his arms. “And as the being who loves you more than anyone—- who knows you when you are a stranger to your own self— I would know this.”
He pulled you closer by tugging your scarf. The same scarf he gave you.
And pushed you until you’re away from the edge.
“There is no sufficient reason enough for you to take your life.”
Sinfully, Sunday leaned your faces closer to once another. You smelled like wine. Sleep deprivation has made a lightweight out of you.
You shook, your voice taking a tone unfamiliar to you. Raw. Loud. There was frustration in it, which was the most harrowing emotion of all. 
“And so what? My problems aren’t bad enough— that I’m just a fucking loser who can’t get their shit together like EVERYONE ELSE? THAT MY OWN BODY GIVES UP ON ME?! TO THE POINT I FIND MYSELF PASSED OUT SLEEPING ON THE DIRTY FLOOR OF OUR UNIVERSITY’S FUCKING DRAWING ROOM?!”
“I—”
“I know what you’re thinking, it’s either one of two things. If you’re anyone else, you think I’ve matured too early, too fast, and if you’re just like my father, then I haven’t matured fast enough for you— isn’t that right?! I know what the FUCK that look is!”
You grabbed the collar of his shirt. 
“No one— NO ONE— fucking truly cares for me. No one PRAYS for me. You know the only people that I talk to nowadays?! Pixels. Fucking. PIXELS!!! So called people with faces I’ve never seen, just texts I have to imagine— just voices I have to convince myself are real. A human connection but not quite. And you know the amount of fucks they actually give?!”
It’s only then that you noticed your hands shaking, but that awareness only tightened your hold. 
“I can paint them a portrait as many as they want. I can greet them, make them laugh a bunch, but at the end of the day I’m hanging out where I don’t b-belong.” White knuckles. Short breaths. “I can listen, I can give people the time of day, but if you ask them what I’m going through, they don’t know jack shit. And there's my campus life, or lack thereof. Where do I even begin with that?!”
“I’ve sacrificed…” Your grip loosened. “I’ve sacrificed true friends, I’ve sacrificed time with family, sacrificed the remaining time I could’ve spent next to a dying loved one. I sacrificed my time, my literal blood, sweat, tears, and most importantly time— for a dream I was never meant to reach. Every morning I could’ve slept, every 6 hours I should’ve rested, there’s nothing. Nothing for a program I shouldn't have taken. And now they’re gone. One is even six feet under.”
You dropped your hold on him.
43,826 system hours.
“Let me through.”
Sunday breathed in shakily. “No.”
“Let me fucking through, Septimus.”
“Do you remember what I told you when we first had a proper conversion?” He retorted, breathless. “To leave is to let someone down, and I meant it literally. I shall not allow this. (Y/n), you just need someone to talk to.”
“And it’s not going to be you!” You laughed at his face. “Or anyone! There is NO ONE who can reach me, Septimus, there’s nothing that can fix THIS anymore.”
“Please, just hold on to me.” Sunday knew you were no longer hearing him. He knew there was nothing to be done. But he clung to your clothes— clawed your back— rested his face on your shoulder. “I have nothing to offer you but myself.”
“Let me destroy myself.” Palms clamming up. Heart racing. “Let me end this.”
“Please, just… █████ █.” He leaned in to a degree you can’t feel anything but inches of his skin. “Just give me till █████ █ to prove to you that each day is worth living. Don’t take your life away for me.”
Sunday cried. His tears were warm, normal. 
“I-I would much rather be human than an angel of death, so I could take care of you.” He wept, holding you closer— back in his embrace. “For I love you with all I have. No other had made me feel this way.”
You fell silent.
“Until █████ █?”
With closed eyes and thin lips, he nodded reluctantly. 
“Until █████ █.”
Your shoulders relaxed, and with a heavy chest, you felt like you regained the ability to cry again.
Thud… Thud… Thud...
Faint, but even faint is enough.
“(Y/n).” Sunday— Septimus called out with a voice that finally reached you. With trembling lips, he cupped your cheeks. His golden eyes blocked the shade of the dullest moon. In that moment, he was the only light you cling to, and it will remain so until the date he has given. “Let me be your north star, your steady hand. Let me take care of you if you cannot take care of yourself.”
Wonderful, if true. But the maggots gnaw deep in your skin. Whatever affection he has for you must be unreal and unfounded. A dove catching a worm underneath its pointed claws when it was to crawl to the nearest cliff. There’s a glimmer so conflicted in his eyes. A lucid thought running in a path that circles both his ego and conscience. A truth he doesn’t speak aloud.
He’s selfish.
Sunday doesn’t want you alive for the sake of living. The still surface of the water should’ve moved if so. There would’ve been another angel— another song singing praises of life to lift you up. But it was only him. Always him. 
He wants you to live for him.
He wants (Y/n) (L/n) to live for the angel of Death. 
Selfish.
Selfish. Selfish. Selfish. Selfish.
But Sunday— Septimus— whatever this foul beast was— he knew that he’s wrong. He knows that what he has done has crossed another heavenly line. He knew that you were past your date. He knew he takes too much pleasure in seeing you alive because he allowed it.
Yet the heavens would rather see you suffer than have you take your life again. 
(Y/n)...
He loves you. More than everyone in the world.
But even he doesn't PRAY for you.
You laughed again.
“█████ █.”
You leaned against his chest.
“You've set the date, and I'll patiently wait.” You replied. “By █████ █, you'll do the work, that was your promise. Septimus, I'm tired of taking my own life, so do your job.”
“I'm sorry. I'm sorry…” Sunday mumbled. His shaky breath was more human than you could ever be. “I won't prolong your suffering anymore. I'm sorry. I’ll hold your breath, just as the heavens intended.”
“It's fine.” 
You've had your solace. The answer you've been looking for since you were young.
43,826 system hours.
And just 1,512 bit more.
“Cause every X on the calendar would make me feel a bit more okay.”

Death - Part 1
Tumblr media
Masterlist
Death Personified M X Human GN Fat Reader
CW: Pet death, grief, death (obvi?), masturbation, monsterfucking, yandere if you squint, not sure what else yet, will add as I go.
Death wasn’t a single entity. It was more of a group. A way of being. There were hundreds holding the name “Death”. He didn’t know any others though. They didn’t interact. It was a solitary life. Flitting from life to life, helping souls move on. He held a rudimentary understanding of why the creatures around the souls would mourn, but it was a beautiful thing to him. He lived in an in-between realm. Not quite dead, not quite alive. Very few could see him, and most only could shortly before they themselves moved on.
This was why he was in their home. It was dark. He knew they were around. He had been checking up on the cat who lived with them for a couple days now. She was close to death.
He stood next to the couch she was curled up on. He preferred to take creatures gently. He was not malicious. He chose the souls who were ready to move on. The cat looked up at him with one eye, not bothering to move her head. She was frail. He could see her vision wasn’t strong. He mewled at her and she stretched her paw out towards him.
Death leaned down to press his finger into her paw when a voice snapped him out of his focus.
“Please don’t.” It was shaky and sorrow filled. Death turned around to see you. You stood in the door frame, illuminated by the light behind. Your face was covered in tears. You could see him? He hadn’t felt any connection that would signal your ability to see beings like him. And he knew you weren’t close to death. How could you see him?
He stared longer than he should, dumbfounded and with no idea how to respond. You sniffled and continued. “Please, just wait until tomorrow. I understand, it’s…. She’s old. But can I please have one last night with her?” You begged.
He took advantage of the out, and rather than trying to respond, he swiftly ran away. He didn’t go far though. He had been rattled, and he didn’t like it. He spent his eternity alone. Only dying and dark could see him. He avoided the dark, and the dying never saw him for long. But you were neither? You frustrated and intrigued him. He would never admit that the way your plush body had looked, and the way your skimpy pjs clung tightly to your form had also intrigued him.
It wasn’t unheard of for his kind to get involved with humans, or each other. But it was forbidden. And dangerous. That much power with something so frail had resulted in more often than not, a soul ripped from their body before their time.
Death’s touch wasn’t always an execution. He could control the touch. But it was difficult and took immense focus. Something others had learned too late, that they were worse at than they had thought.
He sat now, on your porch railing, gazing through the rain that fell in the night sky. He watched you through your windows. He never realised you could probably see him. He was so used to passing through unknown that he didn’t even consider it.
You made a fancy chicken dinner for your pet, he assumed her favourite. You curled up on that same couch with her and hand fed her. You cried. A lot. He wondered what it felt like to mourn. He wondered what it felt like to love enough to mourn. He wasn’t supposed to give creatures more time, but he hadn’t been able to look you in the eyes and take something you clearly loved so much.
You cried yourself to sleep sometime in the night. He floated through the wall and stopped in front of your pair of sleeping forms. You looked beautiful. Your face was no longer tensed by emotion and he could see the freckles that covered your nose. Soft eyelashes fluttered against your apple cheeks.
He reached down to touch them, before catching himself. What was he doing? You were human. You weren’t for him. Also, he was about to kill your cat. He thought you probably wouldn’t appreciate waking up to have death touching your face before taking something you loved so deeply, away from you.
But he didn’t move his hand from where it was. Stretched out in front of him, inches away from your face. He was shocked by his own desire. Had he ever felt desire before? He didn’t think so. You were just so soft. You looked so safe and comfortable. He imagined running his fingers down your curves, feeling every inch of you.
The sun started shining through the windows and he realized he’d been standing there for far too long. You might wake up soon.
He turned from you, eyes dragging. He looked down at your sleeping cat. He felt bad. There was another new emotion. He knew it was better, and that her soul would continue on in peace. But he also knew you loved her. For some reason, he didn’t want to be the cause of your pain.
He steadied himself and shook his head. This was what he had to do. This was what he was made to do. It was his only purpose. He leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on your pet’s head, her exhale as he did, her last.
He watched her soul coalesce above her body and then dissipate. He had seen it hundreds, maybe thousands of times. It was beautiful every time.
He looked back down to you and took an instinctual step back as he realised your eyes were open. You looked up at him with a teary gaze.
“Th… thank you.” You said. His throat felt thick. You were thanking him? “Thank you for letting me say goodbye.” You finished. You curled your body around your pet and sobbed into her fur. He felt like he was intruding.
He started to turn away but hesitated. He looked back down at you. His chest hurt. He reached out a shaky hand and lingered above you again. He fought with himself. He should leave. He’d been here too long already.
But he couldn’t help himself.
He reached down, and so gently you could have mistaken it for wind had there been any, he brushed your hair from your face.
And then he was gone.

The Silence of Seven
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
↳Synopsis:
❝ The peaceful atmosphere is shattered when Yuu finds one of her friends in a coma of unknown causes. Determined to uncover the truth, Yuu and her friends begin investigating the case and discover a curious pattern that links the victims. But as the investigation progresses, they find themselves in a tangle with powerful enemies, and this time the danger is out of Twisted Wonderland. Yuu and her friends will have to fight against unknown forces to find answers and unravel the mystery before it's too late.❞
↳Notes:Leona being a simp, Leona and Yuu have a complicated relationship, grim is clingyy, Crowley puts more work for yuu, angst+fluff memories? Yuu likes to flirt with others to pass the time.
「 Chapter 3: Can you feel the love tonight? 」
.  ˚  .   .        ✧
It was noon when Crowley summoned the prefect of Ramshackle to his office. What the hopeful Yuu expected would be news from her friend Riddle, she received only a paperwork of documents to take to the leaders and a cynical smile from the crow that everything will be fine.
That's how she ended up in Savanaclaw's dormitory, before she would have been greeted like weak prey entering a predator's lair, but now… students of all species greeted her as she entered the hot corridors, some stepped aside and others waved respectfully. Everyone noticed that its aura had changed, it was not an agitated presence that sought for survival, but a confident presence that said “Fight me if you can”. Leona admired this, the herbivore finally learned to roar.
He still remembered how she looked so weak that a wind could carry her away, how the students would band together to chase her and cowardly attack her. Like most days, the girl without magic appeared to be so ill that she spent a good deal of time in the infirmary. The girl's blood was cowardly spread throughout the dormitory, between fists and claws.
Yuu's entrance was betrayed by her voice, which the young lion was so fond of.
While the prince's voice was like a low growl, the girl's voice was like a melody, varying between high and low pitches and suiting her listener. While for Vil his voice was like an elegantly made melody, for Leona, it was a voice of strength and authority with hints of provocation, which he would never admit but he liked the play on words and boldness that the herbivore dared to speak.
"Your Majesty" “Herbivore”
Incredibly, in fact, Yuu and Leona got along very well, an interesting chemistry, and occasionally met to think of new strategies for the game or a chess match. Occasionally, Leona would let herself be vulnerable and sink into the girl's lap under a large tree in the Botanical Gardens. Occasionally, Yuu would hold his warm hand while he accompanied her to the classroom. Occasionally, her mouths would engage in intense and passionate fights, where surprisingly the two won.
"I can't focus on the document if you keep staring at me like that"- The herbivore felt the intense gaze of a certain carnivore who practically ignored the serious words she was saying and without any shame admired her beautiful eyes.
"Will you say that again? I wasn't listening." As he leaned forward her knees touched and he brushed a stubborn strand of hair behind her ear. There was no denying that a blush crept across both of their faces…
"*cough cough let's focus here*".- Yuu composed herself putting a physical space between the two
"Don't be embarrassed, it's just the two of us here".- The sly smile Leona flashed would make butterflies dance in anyone's stomach, but not Yuu, not now.
"I said, let's focus." The serious, gruff voice made the prince's smile slip. Like a twinge in his belly, he remembered.
"Occasionally" is not a couple. No matter how much their eyes met in the crowd, no matter how delicious the barbecues they had together were, no matter how much Cheka already considered her her aunt, no matter how much they whispered together, no matter how much Leona's eyes couldn't hide how much she adored her. However much time they spent together, the words never left the prince's mouth. As much as he wanted to, they weren't a couple.
“Hey, you lazy lion. Look at me” five days ago Leona was in the botanical gardens, lying on her thighs where she was getting a beauty sleep. Vile thanks you.
“Hmm?” without opening his eyes, he just growled to let her know she was being heard.
“Look at me” the gentle touch of the girl's hands made the green eyes that were so menacing before open up “There you are… what beautiful eyes you have.” the woman's giggles were music to her ears
"I have to go now." little kisses were deposited on the prince's face as she took him discreetly off her lap and oh… he wouldn't allow that
“Stay here a little longer” before she got up Leona grabbed the girl and trapped her in her embrace, getting him on top of her. “Stay” when Yuu returned the hug amid giggles, Leona could hear the elegant and smooth rhythm of the heart that wanted so much and without knowing it, purred in a low tone.
“Okay you spoiled cat, but only because I like you.” feeling so protected and loved in the arms of someone she cares so much for, Yuu relented and upon feeling a blush on her cheeks she realized…. Leona was nibbling her neck, which very happily Yuu returned the bites on his neck.
Ah the young love!
Leona was from a land where actions speak louder than words, while Yuu believed that sincere words were the beginning of everything. As long as Leona didn't take the first step, it wouldn't be Yuu who would. And Yuu was tired of the supposed game of cat and mouse.
What does a handsome prince see in me? What does he hide? Why me?
If they weren't official, Yuu could go out and flirt with any boy she wanted while Leona roared with rage in jealousy and envy. An anguished atmosphere between the two would stay for a while fighting over simple things, and then they would make up and the cycle would repeat itself.
When they finished talking a little more about school affairs and Riddle's secret affairs, Leona opened the door like a gentleman for Yuu, but he wasn't the only one who wanted to impress her. door. Unconsciously the prince stood in front of the girl, protecting her from a supposed bully.
-Dorm leader!-he bowed loudly- Yuu-kun!-he stood up with a smile on his face. -I…ah, I wanted to know if you already finished your meeting.
-We're done. Do you need something?- Yuu replied immediately
-It's just that… the guys in the lounge are calling you to talk to us there- the panther gradually lowered his tone, evading her gaze, passing his hand over the back of his neck
-Look, I don't know… I still have a lot to do.
-Please, it's going to be quick!-The beastman panther threw the best pleading eyes he could manage, as he grabbed Yuu by the hand in an impulsive movement.
"Why can he look at you like that and I can't?"
-Well…I guess I can stay a little while.- A blush crept across the girl's cheeks, but quickly disappeared as she remembered that Leona was still there- So Leona, can I send you the other documents via magiczap? There aren't many in any case .
"Whatever." His nonchalant expression might fool some, but his tail flicked to one side screamed his annoyance.
-So, let's go?- Yuu's charming smile made the panther beastman melt by lowering his ears.
-Y-yes, let's go.
"Stay here"
Unspoken words don't change hearts.
Leona watched the image of the two disappearing from her sight, the panther guided Yuu by the hand until she reached a cluster of beastmen of different species near the pool, all competing for a thousandth of Yuu's attention, this one, told several stories and advice to them , his warm, soft hand stroked the fur of the beastmans now and then and if the prince wasn't so proud he would do the same.
Coming out of a dark corner with a basket of clean clothes, Ruggie looked closely at the situation he saw and sighed heavily in counsel.
“If you just stare, it won’t solve anything, you know?” “Shut up, Ruggie”
The hyena witnessed these and other situations between the two lovebirds, he himself was tired of seeing how Leona was burning with jealousy and gave him more work to do. He couldn't deny that he saw hearts in Yuu's eyes and how Leona became a kitten when she was near. They deserve each other, what are they waiting for? What are the powerful and oh so strong lion be thinking so much? Don't you think he's afraid of-
“Ruggie. Bring that fur ball over here.”
.  ˚  .   .        ✧
Grim was reluctantly in Heartstabull's dorm, the feline had been clinging to the supervisor's side recently and due to his big mouth, Yuu decided to leave him with the boys so that she could resolve Savanaclaw's affairs as quickly as possible.
“Let me go minioon. We're a duo, aren't we?”- the cat meowed while grabbing the girl's leg
“No Grim, stay with the boys. I'll be right back"
“What if you get attacked there? Those big ones might be mad at you.”
“It'll be quick, okay? I'll be right back.”- giving a soft kiss on his companion's forehead, Grim stopped for a few seconds and then went back to clinging to her.
"Ah come on Grim, let her go soon" Ace tried to pull the feline from the mayor's leg.
“Trey made his favorite pies.” As lying as the line was, Deuce needed to buy time.
After having eaten the pies - what a spoiler, they weren't made by Trey, he was still in the office, Grim was pouting and meowing about the delay of his dear henchman. This way, it was easy for a hyena to find his target and drag him into the wild beasts' roost.
“Here you go, boss” “Leave us alone Ruggie.”
"What does Leona want?"-Grim watched the place noticing Yuu's familiar scent, but not her presence. The feline had noticed that the two lovebirds had stopped walking together, much to Grim's happiness. This one let out a smug grim at the thought that her friend without magic wouldn't see the lion anymore, would spend more time beside the big grim. Just like old times…
“I want you to send a message to the herbivore, your friend Yuu.” Cut to the chase, Leona circled the cat as if he were just another prey in his territory.
"And why don't you send it yourself? I'm very busy, you know?"
“Because…that herbivore forgot some documents here and you have to give them to her.”- according to the plan, Leona temptingly shows the documents to Grim, who takes the bait by becoming familiar with them. They're the same ones Yuu was carrying! "But we have a few points to discuss before taking it to Crowley"
Crossing his arms Grim asks "And since when do you care and collaborate with Crowley?"
“As long as he gets off my back, I want to get rid of the damn crow.” And who didn't?
“And for your friend to have a lighter weight on her shoulders, you have to collaborate with me.” the lion keeps the alleged documents in bed, hiding them like someone hiding a wild card to use later. With green eyes he stares at the feline and launches his proposal.
“Tell Yuu to meet me at the botanical garden during sunset. No delays."
Upon leaving the dorm Ruggie gave the feline a can of luxury tuna. Your payment for the message, he said. The prince wanted to make sure his message got through, and what better bribe for a greedy cat than delicious food?
Grim walked back down the path on his own, just him and his thoughts. Is Yuu so tired, why do I have to put more work to her? Grim's little paws unconsciously followed Yuu's scent until he found her in the hall of mirrors after she had returned from Octaville, this one, smiled gently when she saw her companion.
“Grim! I was going to go and get it from the boys' dorm now. What are you doing here?"
“The big grim went for a walk.”
“I'm happy for you grim, you must exercise to make your body strong and…” noticing a different can of tuna, Yuu asks curiously “Where did you find that can of tuna?”
Stop asking henchman questions!
Rolling his eyes and momentarily losing his confident posture Grim says the first thing that comes to his mind "Ruggie gave it to me!"
The can isn't even from campus, how was Ruggie going to give it away? It's because...?
“Why did Leona give you that can of tuna? She didn't get into trouble, did she?" Concluding that it was really the prince who has been disturbing their sleep and their romances, with him especially, Yuu fears the worst.
“Oh, I don't know! R-Ruggie gave it to me!” the more the girl squinted her eyes suspiciously the more Grim became agitated
"OK…"
As much as curiosity is one of her strong points, Yuu is really tired and changes the subject as they walk down the haunted, dilapidated path to her dear and cozy: Ramcharckle dorm! The sun was beginning to set, giving Yuu a feeling of peace and vitality.
“What a lovely sunset!”
Leona knew that. Leona knew that the girl from another world loved sunsets, because whenever they went out together she slowed down her steps and spoke less to enjoy the moment so ethereal. In Leona's eyes, Yuu's body lit up with a precious treasure as the warm orange rays covered her skin, the hair that even dark gleamed with vigor, and the eyes… ah the eyes that looked like pools of gold that the prince wanted to drown in them.
It was in these same eyes that the prince learned what hope was. It wasn't a delicate, naive term, as his books said. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her hands, hair messed up, she spits on the floor and gets up to try again with eyes as dangerous as fire that burn with determination.
Fire can either warm you or burn you.
The magicless human from another dimensions, an alien to this world, managed to burn and warm many during her stay in this strange world, and the thought that she could leave at any moment gave Leona the kick to confess and keep her beside the Prince.
Burning and heating. In the depths of the young prince's heart, true feelings were slowly curling into her words, making him agitated and reviewing his speech over and over again.
Back and forth one… "Look, I wanted to talk about…us…"
From there to here one… " I like what we have now what if…."
From one side to the other a sincere speech was formed… "I want more, I want you to be mine and I want to be yours"
*shift track* bush moving
The small ears pricked up at the sound and this time Leona allowed a gentle smile waiting for Yuu.
"Herbivore, it's about time."
But Yuu was sleeping peacefully at the moment, sleeping between her covers on the couch in the Ramcharchle dorm, her head already heavy from thinking. Grim had never said the message Leona had sent, he had to make sure his Henchamn was rested and at his side.Right?
The sun had already set when Yuu received a call from an agitated hyena.

Several have asked, so here ya go, the only three Monster AU drawings I've done so far and headcannons to go with them.
Tumblr media
- Riddle is a Unicorn Centaur and is very proud about this fact. His mother and father were both Unicorn Centaurs as well and they both put great pressure on Riddle to uphold traditional Unicorn values. One of these values being an extreme focus on purity and maintaining a certain level of purity, so Riddle is very keen to keep his white fur clean and often wears hoof-shoes to keep dirt out of his hooves.
- Riddle wears leg-warmers because he actually does get cold rather easily due to his lighter musculature. Sometimes, on colder days, Riddle will even wear a blanket wrapped around his equine half and will even use fire magic to keep himself warm.
- Riddle can't swim very well, especially in comparison to Trey and Cater. He is EXTREMELY sensitive about this fact. Cater often tries to get Riddle to swim in the Heartslabyul lake but Riddle refuses. Any attempt to force Riddle to swim will result in a swift Off With Your Head.
- Riddle will only allow his darling to touch his horn as Unicorn horns can be very brittle and sensitive, so only someone he deeply trusts is allowed to lay hands on it. Due to Unicorn horns being so full of magic, if he ever does break or chip his horn, he will gift the pieces to his beloved as a sign of ultimate trust. He trusts his darling won't sell the pieces and will treasure them.
Tumblr media
- Silver carries a blanket around at all times for whenever he or those he cares about need rest. Sebek is the only one of the Diasomnia four that refuses to use Silver's blanket. Silver uses the blanket the most, followed by the more nocturnal Lilia, and even Malleus has used Silver's blanket for a quick nap.
- Silver can be, and has already been, tethered to a carriage before and is quite efficient at hauling things around as needed. Because he can traverse snowy terrain and can adapt to different inclines effectively, he is typically the first to offer to carry things and people around. Someone can tell they are Silver's friend if he offers to carry them around campus.
- Silver is allowed in Malleus' nest but will only enter of his own free will if Malleus directly asks him to. As the nest is big enough to hold Malleus in his full draconic form, it can easily hold Silver, Lilia, Sebek, Malleus, and a few others comfortably before it starts to get crowded. Malleus sees Silver as one of his Hoard and will track Silver down if he hasn't heard from the Cervitaur in several hours.
- If Silver feels like his beloved is in danger, he will not hesitate to pull them up on his back and flee with them to somewhere safer. Only when he is sure they are safe will Silver allow them to get off of his back. Silver has considered getting a saddle made for himself so he can carry his beloved comfortably.
Tumblr media
- Grim has had a rough and lonely life so far. He longs for the feeling of a warm home and a comfortable place to sleep, safe from the many dangers the world has to offer. True peace- for Grim- is a warm home, warm bed, and someone who cares about him in a way no others have in the past; like family. As far as Grim knows, he has always been alone and the actual monsters of TWST were keen to remind him the world is not a safe place.
- Grim was able to fly with his wings once upon a time before another monster managed to sneak up on him while he was sleeping. He can no longer use his wings to fly, but will often still flap them from time to time to see if he might have gotten the ability of flight back despite the state of his wings.
- His right eye was damaged in a fight over scraps of food with another smaller monster of the forest. It is harder for him to see out of his right eye due to the scarring around the eyelid and he is sensitive about others teasing him for his scars. Each scar is a time Grim almost lost his life to another monster, and Grim has plenty of scars to remember the hard learned lessons life has thrown at him.
- Grim longs for the domestic feeling of having family and will cling to his Human as they are the only family he has. He will never admit to it- as weakness gets you killed in the wild- but true happiness is when he can snuggle into the soft tummy of his Human and nap knowing that he will wake up somewhere warm, comfortable, and with trusted friends nearby instead of waking up cold, alone, and afraid as he did for so long prior to his Human. His Human is his family and he will never willingly give up his family for anything, even all the Tuna in the world.
