“Now and Then ~Ver. for the Pretty Cure 1,000+ Broadcast x Yona Kuromatoki Platform 10th Anniversary~”

SYNOPSIS: On the last recording day of the Pretty Cure Max Heart finale episode, the three main voice actresses Yoko Honna, Yukana and Rie Tanaka are in all emotional sides that the moment has come - their tenure as Pretty Cures will be over. However on the other side of the spectrum, Cures Black and White, and Shiny Luminous are still struggling on their final stand against the resurrected Dark King until six familiar figures appear on a bright realm, which will definitely ensure the future of the Pretty Cure series.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: Hallo again, everyone! I’m so back in writing fanfics again and again for the first time in a while, but actually there are slight changes in some lines from the first version, which was commemorating 20 years of the Pretty Cure series last year, yet almost the same. And oh, check out my notes about it for the newbies out there!

2024 marks the tenth anniversary of the Yona Kuromatoki Platform as well as more than 1,000 broadcast weeks of the action magical girl franchise, and so a new, updated version is finally here, this time the Wonderful team plus Satoru-kun and Daifuku will make an appearance in the story. As with the original 20th anniversary version, there’ll be nostalgic feels while reading and I apologize in advance.

—0—

It was the last day of recording sessions for the Max Heart finale episode and everyone in the studio were in mixed emotions as the moment had finally come. The three main voice actresses, Yoko Honna, Yukana and Rie Tanaka, as well as the other cast members were doing the same.

 

The session began and the voice actors had gave their all to deliver their emotions to the characters they played. Sure, there would be mistakes in some parts, but for one last time it was now or never, just like Cures Black and White, and Shiny Luminous fighting for all of Earth and the entire universe to defeat the resurrected Dark King. And then, emotions were overflow in the studio as a certain emotional scene when Luminous started crying in front of Black and White, but also had no regrets to be the Queen of Light again.

 

"Okie dokie, that's it for now!" The director finished the first block session of the recording and the voice actors already took their one hour lunch break.

 

At the nearby pantry, Yoko, Yukana and Rie began to recall about their memories throughout the two-year run on the show.

 

"This brings me back memories," Yukana reacted as she looked at the pictures of the Pretty Cure Live Stages featuring the three Cures' live action kigurumi forms and the various kids throughout Japan, to which put a smile on her face.

"I know, right?" Yoko chuckled while tapping the other veteran seiyuu's shoulder and seeing those pictures. "Honestly, I still can't believe we reach another new milestone for Pretty Cure."

 

Rie nodded after munching an onigiri before seeing the photos of the promotional activities, "Mm! It's really been a wonderful ride for everyone. But come to think that we're about to reach the end and it makes me so sad."

 

"We have the same thought as you, Rie-chan," Yoko replied but there was also sadness on her face. "It's sad, but we have to face it."

 

"Just like Nagisa-chan, Honoka-chan and Hikari-chan really used to be," added Eri Sendai, Shiho Terada's voice actress, and later would go on to play Milk/Kurumi Mimino aka Milky Rose in Yes! Pretty Cure 5 and Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo! a few years later. She then sat beside Rie with her lunch and munched a takoyaki that she bought outside the studio.

 

"What do you mean, Sendai-san?" the outgoing lead Cure seiyuu wondered.

 

"Simple, even if we're apart, our bond will always be connected."

 

Yukana then commented, "Therefore, we all share the same pot under the same sky! That's the true spirit and magic of the Pretty Cure series!"

 

"That's right!" Rie nodded and added in a similar manner as Hikari, "Our time on the show may be almost over, but the legacy will still carry on to the future generations."

 

"And I hope this amazing franchise will go on and on so that everyone can still be enjoyed and amazed by the Pretty Cures' adventures, and to pass this legendary story to their future kids!" Yoko said as she was imitating Nagisa.

 

"Oh, Yoko-chan! You are so like Nagisa-chan indeed!" Yukana laughed while doing a Honoka impersonation.

 

"I can't believe this~!!" The three women wackily chuckled on Yoko's iconic line.

Lunch break was over and the voice actors were returning to the studio for the final recording block of the episode. Suddenly, two figures appeared on the podium and were greeted by the sound engineers, producer Takashi Washio, the episode writer and the director with bows and handshakes. Those two women therefore were Orie Kimoto and Atsuko Enomoto, the voice actresses of Saki Hyuuga and Mai Mishou in the upcoming Splash Star season.

 

The two women then approached to Yoko, Yukana and Rie with a warm reception at the studio.

 

"Hello everyone! I'm Orie Kimoto, Saki Hyuuga's voice actress! Nice to meet you!"

 

"I'm Atsuko Enomoto, Mai Mishou's voice actress! Nice to meet you!"

 

"Nice to meet you too!"

 

Later, Yoko had some advice to Orie on how to fill the former's shoes once the Cure leadership role would be passed on to the latter.

 

"You see, the Pretty Cure series is turning two years old next year and it looks like we'll take the same page as Kamen Rider and Super Sentai in terms of cast changes. So, I just wanna tell you that you will give your all in playing a Pretty Cure. Just enjoy every single moment and when things get tough, the Cures will always be there to cheer us up."

 

"Mm!" Orie nodded in confidence, "I didn't have any prior main roles as a voice actor though, but I will do my best in playing Cure Bloom! I'm on a top form~!"

 

Rie clapped her hands and commented, "That's the spirit, Orie-chan!"

 

"Thank you, Tanaka-san! Honna-san!"

 

"No problemo, Kimoto-san! If you have some advice then I and my fellow seiyuus here are just one call away." Yoko said taking the phone pose before turning her face to Atsuko. "Same goes with Enomoto-san."

 

"Yeah! I'll do my best too as Cure Egret! Ahhh, I'm so excited to meet her~!"

 

Yukana smiled and replied, "Well, this takes me back to the moment when I got the job as Cure White three years ago, even though we had switched roles on the last minute. Right, Yoko-chan?"

 

"Haha yeah, Yukana-chan!" The veteran lead seiyuu chuckled. "Who could we not forget this thing off? It's a production stuff!"

 

"Mm! Everything has a reason after all," Rie smiled. "And we are so blessed to be part of this amazing show like Pretty Cure."

 

Yoko nodded, "Yeah..." And the beep sound heard.

 

"Okay everyone, the last recording part is about to start!"

 

When the director called and gave last suggestions and thoughts to the voice actors for the last recording block, and Orie and Atsuko returned to the green room, Yoko, Yukana and Rie might be in mixed emotions right now. But they knew that they'd be the first to carve the history of the first action magical girl anime series on the planet.

 

Yoko took a sigh and turned to her two fellow main Cure seiyuus with a smile, "You know, ladies? I'd have one last advice to both Kimoto-san and Enomoto-san before we really bow out."

 

"What?" Yukana and Rie were all ears.

 

"Tag, you're it!"

 

"Ahahaha, that's so funny!"

 

"Ack, it's not!"

 

"That'd be the funniest advice we had got to our successors!"

 

"Huhu no, it's not!"

 

The beep sound on the technical room interrupted the conversation as the director was instructing the other voice actors to get ready. It was about time to take a one last shot for Max Heart and everything would be changed forever.

 

Final recording block ready in 20...

 

As Yoko, Yukana and Rie took deep breaths and put the headsets on their heads, they closed their eyes and a white light appeared. Then, the real world recording studio in Tokyo was shifted to the fictional Koizumi Gakuen City in its apocalyptic state with Black, White and Luminous still struggled to take their final stand against the Dark King.

However when the twintailed light hero, together with the 12 Heartiels and the Heart Charinet, was about to become the resurrected Queen, she and her two teammates were noticing a strange bright realm surrounding the destroyed city. There, six colorful figures stood in front of the three heroes with wonderful and colorful smiles that would usher a brighter future.

 

Cures Wonderful, Friendy, Nyammy and Lillian. The Wonderful Pretty Cures. Together with their two brave helpers, Satoru and Daifuku Toyama.

Black, White and Luminous were still in mixed emotions within, but they already took that short opportunity to see the future with happiness and assurance of what happened next. Wonderful and Friendy smiled at their two senpais, to which Black and White replied them back. An emotional Luminous on the other hand was giving a head pat by Satoru-kun and some encouragement by Nyammy, Lillian and Daifuku.

“Alright, alright. It’s okay now,” Satoru-kun assured at the reincarnated light royal.

“Really?”

Nyammy nodded, “Yeah! You can count on us.”

“Ahhh, this is so exciting~!” Lillian flexed her confident aura in front of her three teammates and Luminous much to their surprise. “You see, I’m curious about seeing the future!”

“Me too!” The four-eyed light brown brunette boy replied while adjusting his glasses with glee.

Meanwhile, Daifuku in his human form tapped his hand on Luminous’ shoulder.

“What?”

“Well, I’m no fortune teller whatsoever. But I can also sense that there’ll be more moments to share to everyone in the comin’ years.”

“Albeit with a different set, but carrying the same energy and the will to fight for the people and things we care about,” added the actual feline hero while smilingly facing Luminous.

“Whoa, that’s amazing!” Exclaimed the light-themed hero. “I’m looking forward to it!”

"Hmm, what does the future really look like?" White wondered curiously.

“We actually don’t know,” Friendy giggled. “But…”

"As long as the Pretty Cures exist, this world and the otherworldly worlds will always be in safe hands from the darkness," Wonderful added as she flexed her dog pose. “Therefore, it’s really wonderful~!!!”

“Wonderful, eh?” Black widened her eyes and realized the importance of the heroic deeds they left to the next set of Cures.

 

But time was running out, and Wonderful and the others were about to leave the bright realm.

"No, wait!" Black cried. "Where are you guys going?"

“To our beloved town,” Wonderful emotionally replied and gently put her hands into her chest. “You see, I’m really not a human at all. But my heart and mind is always with humanity.”

“You’re not a human…” the very first Pretty Cure leader began to get curious. “So that means you’re a pure-blooded living creature that’s turning into a human and a Cure?”

“Mm! A dog to be exact!” The first non-human Cure leader then nodded and grinned energetically at her legendary predecessor.

Black shockingly surprised on that reveal while covering her mouth and took her iconic catchphrase with a low voice, "I can't believe this... B-But, can we meet again sometime?"

 

"Of course! No matter where we come from or what we look like, we're all sharing the same pot under the same sky," Wonderful replied with a dog-like smile.

"Mm! Then, it's a deal!" Black shook her hands at Wonderful’s and the two leaders were giggly laughing, much to their respective teammates' delight.

 

"I guess you two are very similar," White commented.

Friendy nodded, “I agree, especially with the mannerisms and sporty appearances. Yet, Komugi’s more energetic and hyper though.”

“Iroha~!”

"Oh geez, please stop!" Black's and Wonderful’s cheeks went red on the compliments had given from their partners giggly after the former let go of the latter’s hand.

“But yeah, thank you very much for the compliments...” Black then smiled.

“Hey, Wonderful! Friendy!” Satoru-kun called the dog duo and noticed the realm was almost becoming transparent. “The Niko Diamond’s portal energy is running out!"

 

"Yeah, we're coming!"

 

"Wait!" The first generation Pretty Cures were about to give their last line to their successors.

 

"Thank you, everyone!"

 

The two teams were taking their bows with respect and all smiles in the midst of eternal darkness outside. They knew that this would not be the last time the two Cure teams saw one another, and would manifest for another meeting and possible bonding again in the future.

 

As the bright realm and its portal were about to disintergrate from the apocalyptic city, Wonderful and the others smiled at Black, White and Luminous one last time. Now and then, they would always be the heroes of our time and beyond forever. And with all the Cures that came after Black and the others, the future of the Pretty Cure series would be ensured in safe hands.

harry june: kigurumi joi

the thought of you dressing up as one of his favourite anime characters like erza from fairytale as you lay across the couch and pretend to clean your sword- nonchalantly instructing him to slowly orgasm.

GK: voice

his deep voice, GWORL PLEASE HES IN THE ‘VOICE THAT ROTS IN THE BACK OF YOUR BRAIN GANG’. he loves the way his voice sounds when it gets deep and sensual, speaking lowly into your ear as your voice only gives a squeak or whine.

heechan: orgasm play n denial whilst watching katotropnophilia and edging

long one yes i know but he’s jus so kinky i couldn’t help it. he literally reminds me of wooyoung in every way possible- watching you get close to your orgasm and then leaving you be by pulling out so fast you’re shaking and crying to be filled just to cum.

teo: muscular merinthophilia

let’s say it all together children!! that’s right. choking, muscles, katotropnophilia, he’s got the same things and wants more.

D1: temperatured ice

the coldness of his tongue on your chest as the last of the ice melts, he smiles at how he feels your goosebumps and hugs you to let you feel his warmth.

echan: praise frfr

as papa leader, it’s his job to praise his members and he praises you the same exact way. when you do good.

Kigurumi Party: A Sky High Fanfic

By JJ

Summary: Just read the title.

P.S., this fic goes to @darrenpeace for their early Halloween posts last time on October 31st, 2022.

October 31st, Halloween. The spookiest time of the year. Will's 3rd favorite holiday. What he loved best about Halloween was dressing up, that and getting free candy. Because he liked dressing up so much, he decided to throw a kigurumi party at his house, not a big party, he was only inviting his friends.

He got dressed in a blue kigurumi, and it was so soft and cute, he looked like Stitch from Lilo & Stitch. A knock came at the door, he went to open it, and he saw Layla, dressed up in a green kigurumi.

"Layla!"

"Hey, Will. Don't I look cute?"

"Cuter than ever."

Layla's face turned as red as a tomato. While her boyfriend was a little dull, he could also be really sweet.

As they waited for the others to get there, Layla helped Will set up the living room for a scary movie night, eating candy and popcorn. They heard another knock on the door, and Layla opened it to see Magenta and Zach.

Zach was dressed up in a Pikachu kigurumi, and Magenta was dressed in a blue kigurumi with darker blue stripes. Zach had his arm resting on Magenta's head, and Magenta looked annoyed as ever.

"Hi guys! You're just in time to help us prepare for the party."

"Aw, I was hoping we'd get here in time to enjoy the party, not prepare for the party."

"I actually don't care, I'm only here for the free candy."

Will trudged over to the door, "Well all of this preparing is gonna take more than 2 people, so we could really use your help.", Zach and Magenta exchanged glances at one another, then shrugged.

About half an hour later, Ethan showed up to the party, wearing an orange kigurumi, and he looked more than happy to help with the party. Soon, the preparations were complete, and everyone was there, all except Warren.

Will told the gang he would be a minute as he flew to Warren's house, holding a bag in his hands. He knew Warren didn't really like parties, but they were best friends, and he wouldn't go through with this party without his best friend.

As soon as he got to Warren's house, he knocked on the door, and Warren answered. He didn't say anything, just leaned against the door frame, a blank look on his face.

"War, didn't you get my text about the kigurumi party at my house?"

"Yes."

"Then why aren't you -?"

"Because I don't want to go."

"Why not?"

"Well A. I don't do parties, B. I don't dress up in stupid cute costumes, C. I'm not going to dress up like an idiot or go trick or treating either if that's what you're thinking."

A short pause.

"Also, D. I don't have a kigurumi."

"Which is why a few weeks before tonight, I stopped at Party City and bought you this."

He pulled out from the bag he was holding a black kigurumi, representing Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon.

Warren slammed the door in Will's face.

"Still not going."

Will wasn't giving up that easy. He wanted his best friend to have fun with him, like he had fun reading or watching romance sitcoms. Sure, if Layla was still his best friend, he wouldn't even have to ask, but Warren isn't Layla, so it wasn't that easy.

"Warren, I just want you to have fun."

"I will have fun, once you leave and I can watch The Nun."

"You can watch The Nun with us."

"No, I like to watch my movies by myself."

Will still wouldn't give up, instead, he just knocked on the door again and again, and waited for the hothead to answer. Finally, he did.

"Look, Stronghold, I said I wasn't going to your stupid-"

Will pounced on Warren, and the two broke out into a cat fight.

About two hours later, Will managed to get Warren over his shoulder, and bind his wrists together. Warren kept giving his best friend death glares.

"I. Hate. You."

"No you don't."

"Yes I do."

"I know, I know. Look, Warren, this party is gonna be fun. We'll watch movies, we'll tell each other ghost stories, we'll stay up late, and we'll eat as much candy as we can cram into our systems."

"Yeah, that's why I don't want to go. I'm not 5 anymore, I'm not as childish as I was back then."

Will nearly dropped Warren when he heard that.

"Childish?"

"You heard me right."

"War, might I remind you that we're all still in high school."

"You and your friends are freshmen, and I'm a sophomore. You finish the puzzle."

Will rolled his eyes. "Warren, when I was a child, my parents wouldn't let me stay up late, or watch scary movies, or go out at night without adult supervision. I couldn't even eat my candy without them checking for razor blades or poison. This year is different, except the candy part, and I want to spend it with my 5 closest friends."

"5?"

"Layla, Zach, Magenta, Ethan, and you."

"Oh."

"C'mon, Warren. I'll make sure you have fun, too. After all, you do love scary stuff, and Magenta told me you're really into cosplay."

"What?"

"Nothing."

Warren kept debating about it for a minute, but after a while, he reluctantly agreed to attending this party.

The party was a blast. They ate so much candy and got into the wildest sugar rush, and Ethan threw up several times. They were sure they were going to have nightmares after watching The Nun, Megan, Five Nights At Freddy's, It, and Slenderman. They didn't even tell ghost stories, as they were all pretty traumatized as it is, and no one went to sleep until 6:00 in the morning.

Chapter 5

It's so long oops.

Also small TW? Someone just touches your shoulder

I wake up to see that Noodle and 2D are gone. I sit up and feel a stabbing pain in my left eye along with my head hurting in just that one side. I groan knowing I have a migraine and hold my head then lay back down for a second. I grab a bottle of ibuprofen and take two pills. I sit up slowly this time so I can grab my fuzzy socks and circle sunglasses. I have to make Noodle breakfast so I can't stay in bed a little longer.

I put my hood up on my kigurumi pajamas to block out more light from reaching my eye. I don't bother getting dressed because I need to be completely comfortable right now. I go down stairs and hear yelling and banging from the kitchen. It's not even noon and they're already fighting. I sigh and walk into the kitchen to see 2D with a bloody nose and Murdoc standing over him. Noodle is just happily eating her breakfast that someone made for her.  I notice she's also dressed for the day.

They both look at me then scramble away from each other like nothing happened. Murdoc does a double take at me and looks me up and down. 

"What in the bloody hell are you wearing? Murdoc says with a smile. 

"Migraine, it's comfy", I reply. I grab a paper towel and go to wipe off 2D's bloody nose but he stops me. 

"I started it this time, I can clean it up", he smiles and takes the paper towel to wipe his nose so he can kiss my forehead. 

"That doesn't surprise me", I roll my eyes but I smile at him keeping his word from last night. I lean against the counter and look at Murdoc, "We can do bass practice after we take Noodle to the playground". 

He nods and is about to leave the kitchen until Noodle says something. 

"Murdoc!" She exclaims. 

He turns to her and smiles, "Yes? What is it?"

She rambles in Japanese and quickly realizes that we can't understand her by our faces so she stops and looks at me. She signs 'sign' then says "Asobiba?". 

I remember her saying that the other times I've taken her so I smile, "ohh okay this is playground", I show her the sign then she copies it to Murdoc.  "She wants you to come with us", I say. 

"Oh, I would but I'm very busy, sorry luv". 

Noodle's face drops and she looks at me. I kneel down and whisper, "Go give him a hug and look very sad", I say. She immediately runs to him and hugs him while looking up at him with puppy dog eyes. 

"UGH alright I'll go", he says. Noodle jumps up in excitement then runs over to give me a hug. I hug her back and ruffle up her hair. She goes back to her seat and I begin to feel dizzy. I hold my face in my hands to try to block out the light to make it go away long enough to make coffee. 

"Why don't you go lay down and I'll bring you some food? Trust me I know how awful migraines are", 2D says.

"I bet yours are way worse than mine but I'm gonna take you up on that offer, I just want coffee and a poptart. We'll take Noodle when the pain meds kick in", I say. 

2D gives me a sour look, "You didn't take mine did you?" He's not concerned about me getting addicted, only concerned that he now has less pills to get high off of. 

I decide to mess with him. "Oh absolutely, you can't get high if you don't have any obviously", I say in an aggravated tone. 

He scoffs, "Whatever, go lay down so I can have a moment's peace from you". 

I mock him quietly as I walk past Murdoc. He tries not to laugh which makes 2D whip around. "What the hell was that? "

I shrug with a smile on my face as I walk out of the kitchen to go to my room. I go in and grab 2D's pill bottle then sit at my desk to dump them out and count them. I've only been doing this for a few days but I do this every morning to make sure he didn't try to sneak any more. I take off my sunglasses then I pull out my notebook and see I should have 29 so I count them. I have 25 pills but I count again to make sure I didn't miss any but unfortunately I get 25 again. 

I let out an aggravated sigh and put the pills back in the bottle. Of course the one night I let him stay he sneaks his pills. Sometimes I wonder if I'm even helping him. I lean back in my chair contemplating on if it's even worth it.  

'It's worth it, he's just harder to break than your old friends' a voice says.  

Right, because I caught them earlier and forced them to slowly wean off them. I got 2D a bit late. 

'You need to hide them better, sooner or later he's just gonna take the whole bottle' it says. 

I listen to it and go to my closet to pull out my little metal safe box. I put the box on the desk and unlock it to put the bottle in. I lock it back up and put the key in my hidden pocket in my platform boots. I hide the box back in my closet then lay out an outfit for today. It's a black turtleneck with black skinny jeans and a blue jean jacket.  

I hear a knock at my door and tell them to come in. It's 2D with my coffee and poptart. I smile at him and he gives me a small smile back as he hands me my stuff. I put the poptart on my desk and take a drink of coffee. 

"Thank you so much", I say as I sit at my desk. 

"Oh someone's not that cranky anymore, pills must've kicked in", he says sarcastically. 

"Buddy I took ibuprofen, I'm not stupid enough to take those. I just said that because of how you asked me earlier". 

"God you're fucking annoying". Man you can really tell he has withdrawal. 

"Oh, I'm about to get more annoying", I set my cup down and turn my chair to him, "Because I have 4 pills missing from your bottle and I'd like to know why". 

"How do you know I didn't just get my daily dose to help you out?" He tries to make an excuse for himself. 

"Because your dose is 3 not 4" I say. 

He rolls his eyes, "So much bullshit over one pill". 

I almost tell him to keep it because I'm tired of fighting him but the voice in my head reminds me that he's going to be difficult. 

"Yeah no shit", I accidentally say out loud. 

"What?" 2D says. 

"Nothing, just please give me the extra pill. I'm not doing this to punish you I'm just doing this to help", I say softly. 

He reaches into his pants pocket and pulls out a pill then throws it on my desk. "I wish you'd stop fucking helping", he says in an irritated way.  He starts to leave my room but I get up and grab his hand.

"Look, I know the next week is going to be hell for you but can we keep the bitchyness to a minimum for Noodle today?" I ask. 

He sighs and nods his head, "Yeah but only for Noodle". 

"I promise I'll baby you when the withdrawal becomes unbearable", I say. 

I rolls his eyes, "I don't need babied, just leave me alone after we take Noodle to the playground", he grumbles then takes his hand from mine and leaves the room. 

Great, this is gonna be fun. At least Murdoc is coming with us. I turn my attention to my bed and put on the clothes I laid out with my binder. I look in my closet for shoes to wear today. I see my black Cuban heels and get a great idea. I've already caused chaos with 2D might as well do it with Murdoc too. I grab my heels and put them on. I find my jewelry box to get an old upside-down cross necklace that I used to wear. I put in my fang caps then grab my circle sunglasses. I walk out of my room after grabbing my backpack and go to the living room. I see that Murdoc is also wearing a black turtleneck with his infamous necklace. 

"Oh wow one of us is going to have to change", I snicker.

He inspects me and smirks, "I knew I'd rub off on you eventually", he says

"You know I wore this as a joke but its kinda growing on me", I smile. I see 2D behind him with his arms crossed. He just looks annoyed. 

"I don't know I'd rather see you with nothing on", he chuckles in the gross laugh he does. This gets him a slap in the back of the head from 2D as he takes Noodle outside with him. 

"What's his problem?" He asks rubbing the back of his head. 

"I pissed him off because I caught him sneaking his pills", I say. Though it's probably also because of the gross comment Murdoc made towards me. Murdoc rolls his eyes and we go outside to catch up with 2D and Noodle. 

Along the way Noodle would want me and 2D to swing her as we walked. We'd laugh with her and 2D seemed to cheer up a bit. Until he'd look at me then he'd get that annoyed look in his eyes. I try not to take it so personally because I know this is the process but I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt a bit. 

Once we get to the park Noodle runs off to go play. The first time I took her she acted like she had no idea what to do. It was like she's never been to a playground before but she figured it out pretty quickly . We get a few stares when we get there and parents start to whisper. I shrug it off and sit down at a bench to smoke a cigarette. Murdoc joins me as we smoke and watch Noodle. She tries to talk to other kids but they can't understand her so they don't play with her. It breaks my heart watching her little face drop, but she finally finds a little group that works around the language barrier and plays tag with her. 

"Awe she made friends", Murdoc says with a smile on his face. 

"Once in a while she'll find kids that try to include her, it's the best thing to watch", I smile and take a drag of my cigarette. 

We all chat while Noodle plays. 2D is a bit more quiet but at least he talked. Everything was going good until I noticed a certain kid come to the park. I've seen them before picking on and sometimes even hitting other kids but they would always leave when we showed up. They seem a bit older than Noodle to so I was in full parent mode.

I stop talking so I could keep an eye on them. I watch as Noodle climbs up the jungle gym and the kid follows her. I prepare myself to go run and grab her. The kid shoves her off and she hits the ground with a thud. She immediately gets up and climbs back up as I'm making my way to her with Murdoc and 2D behind me. I watch as she kicks the kid in the chest making them fall off and land on their back. She jumps off and lands beside them then starts punching their face.  I go from speed walking to running as I see the kid's parents make their way over. 

I scoop Noodle off of them and she tries to squirm her way out of my grip. She's surprisingly very strong for her age and size. I notice that she has no tears down her face which is odd considering she fell right on her back. She almost succeeds in escaping but I hold her tight and start humming to calm her down. I turn her to face me and she has a blank look on her face until she looks at me and snaps out of it. She immediately clings to me and cries while apologizing. 

What has this kid been through? 

Murdoc and 2D come over and take turns cooing at her and trying to get her to stop crying. 

"I know what will cheer her up," Murdoc says and gets her attention then punches 2D making him fall to the ground. Noodle indeed does start laughing. We start to get more stares as 2D gets up and is about to land one on Murdoc. I quickly set Noodle down and grab them both by the hair and smash their heads together. 

"WILL YOU TWO SHIT HEADS STOP FUCKING AROUND? WE'RE IN PUBLIC!" I yell. Noodle laughs harder and cheers up. 

"IM CALLING THE COPS FOR WHAT YOUR LITTLE MONSTER DID TO MY KID!" we hear someone yell. Murdoc hears the word 'cops' and instinctively runs for it. 

"Come on Noodle time to book it", I tell her and she starts running to catch up to Murdoc.  I run after her with 2D right behid me. 

"Noodle how are you gonna run from cops if you're so slow?" Murdoc jokes. Noodle picks up the pace and rushes past him. "Awe that's my girl". 

I look behind me to see 2D, "Come on D you'd think with those long legs you'd run faster", I joke. He catches up with me and matches my pace. We call out to Noodle and we all hide in an alley to sit down and catch our breath. 

"Well that was an interesting family outing", I say laughing. 

Murdoc laughs with me, "It makes me nostalgic". 

We finally get a chuckle out of 2D, "We might be a little dysfunctional". 

"I don't think its a little", Murdoc laughs. We all laugh with him until Noodle gets my attention. She signs 'you're not mad?'. 

"No sweetie we're not mad, you stood up for yourself and we're proud of you, just take it down a notch next time okay?" I give her a reassuring smile. She sits down on my lap and hugs me. Murdoc and 2D crowd around us so they hug her too. "We love you Noodle don't ever forget that", I say. 

"Yeah we love you, you're a little chip off the old block", Murdoc says.  

Noodle gets a very satisfied and content look on her face, "I love you!" 

We all smile at her, "Alright, let's go home and get ice cream", I say. We all get up and walk home as we take turns swinging her like we did on our way to the park. 

—---

We all got bowls of ice cream when we went home and watched one of her favorite movies with her. Russel joined in on the ice cream too so we all sat as a family. For a split second we felt like a normal family. 2D was still a bit distant from me but at some point he reached for my hand to hold. I guess it was his way of somewhat apologizing.  

Murdoc and I are doing bass practice. He has been getting me used to singing while playing the bass AND putting on a show. I'm working on Punk even though my vocals aren't in it. That was my choice when we recorded the first time, I thought 2D's voice sounded better alone for the song but that doesn't mean Punk isn't my baby. I'd stay in the studio longer than Murdoc adding all the weird sounds between the music breaks. I thought it needed a bit of spice and Murdoc was even a little proud when he heard the finished song. For some reason today he wants me to be absolutely perfect, no forgetting notes while I sing, no forgetting lyrics while I play, and no standing still for longer than 5 seconds. 

"You missed a note y/n! Do it again but BETTER THIS TIME!" Murdoc growls. 

I'm getting fed up with it but I do it again from the top. My vocals start to reflect my frustration and I finally get to the end of the song without being interrupted. 

"THERE DID I DO IT THIS TIME?!" I yell. 

"You were perfect! Just in time for our gig today! I knew getting you angry would make you sound better just like 2D" he says proudly. 

"I don't sing Punk though NOR am I the bassist", I say. 

"You're right you'd steal the spotlight from me". 

I give a half smile and join him on the other side of the glass. "Before I forget, there's something I'd like to talk to you about", I say. 

"About what?" He asks not looking up from his bass as he plucks around on it. 

"How long have you known?" 

He looks at me with a smug look on his face, "How long have I known what? That you also hate being vulnerable and feeling soft?  A while why? Oh wait let me guess 2D forced you to be soft and you probably thought that you hated it and realized you sounded like me right?" He smirks. 

"How did you-" 

"2D told me this morning. He said he offered to take care of you but it was like pulling teeth, so I just knew what happened", he says still having that smug look. 

"Yeah, well I guess there's not much to talk about then so guess I'll go get ready for the gig", I say as I set the bass down. 

"Always a pleasure chatting," Murdoc says as he shoos me away.  

I go to my room to change my shirt and get out of the jean jacket. I grab a black t-shirt with a red anarchy symbol that I spray painted with my leather jacket that has spikes on the shoulders.  I put on my black fingerless gloves that also has spikes but on the knuckles. But it's not inky dinky spikes, they're decent sized, not too big or too small. 

I put my cigarettes and phone in my jacket pockets then I put on my boots and leave my bedroom to help pack up the equipment. 

—-

I help them set up everything then I sit at the bar to wait for them to play.  Murdoc wants to do Punk first so I sit on the sidelines and cheer them on.  I keep my eyes on the stage as I wait for them to start. 

"Hey fancy seeing you here!" I hear a familiar voice say beside me.  I immediately tense up and look to where the voice is coming from.  I see short bright pink hair on top of a narrow faced lanky man. He always wore normal shirts and jeans.  Complete opposite aesthetic from me.  It's no doubt this is my ex, Casey.

"Hi", I say bluntly. 

"Didn't expect to see you here, I thought you'd be at one of your goth clubs", he says.

"Funny I didn't expect to see you here either", I say then focus my attention back to the stage. 

"Am I still getting the cold shoulder?" He asks. 

I ignore him as I see the band come on stage. Noodle starts to look around until she spots me and waves. I wave back and give her a thumbs up for encouragement. She gives me a big grin back. 

"Who's that?" Casey asks.

"That's my daughter", I say proudly.

"Wait what? How old is she? Who's the dad?"

"She's 7 and hmm maybe the bassist is the dad?" I say. 

"Wait, we broke up 5 years ago-" he starts to say.

"Shut up its starting", I say. I hear the drums start then Noodle and Murdoc start their part. 2D starts his vocals and everyone gathers around the stage. I start to sing along with 2D and kick my feet in my bar stool. I'm enjoying myself but it's short lived because a riot starts. It starts as a mosh pit but then everyone starts to fight. The sounds of glass and yelling almost over power the band. I try to hide behind the bar but someone grabs my arm so I turn around and punch them in the nose. The spikes on my gloves slightly penetrate the skin and make them stay on the ground holding their face. 

Casey tries to grab my hand and lead me out but I rip my hand away and turn to him, "I don't need you to protect me, fuck off", I command.  Someone else tries to come at me with a knife and I prepare myself to either get stabbed or be quick enough to strike first.  However just as I'm about to hit, Casey steps in and knocks them to the ground. 

I roll my eyes but then I hear gunshots and immediately cover my ears and hide behind the bar. The sudden loud noise almost sends me to a panic attack, but I realize all the other noise stops. My anxiety quickly turns to anger as I get back up and see someone holding a shotgun. He must've fired shots in the air to stop the riot. 

Casey tries to talk to me again but I just make my way through the mess of the riot to get out the door with glass breaking every step I take. Casey follows me which makes me more aggravated. He's the last person I want to see right now. I know my body wants his familiarity, but I can't go back to that. I can't do it again. I sit down by the door and hold my head in my hands. 

"Are you okay?" He asks me.

"Please just leave me alone", I say. 

"Would you just let me help you? It's not like we ended on bad terms it's not like I cheated", he says as he gets frustrated with me.

I stand up, "You're right you didn't but you falling out of love with me hurt just as much. I wondered why I wasn't good enough, what I could have done differently to make you stay. Maybe I could've been less predictable so I'd seem less boring to you. But I don't need you anymore!" I start to yell. I don't even notice that the band came out and are standing a ways behind me watching how this is gonna play out.

"I'm sorry that happened but I still have some type of feelings for you, the moment I saw you I started to fall into the routine of helping you and-", 

"I don't want your help. I don't want you to protect me and I don't want you to comfort me!" I feel tears start to well up in my eyes as I get a bit too emotional. "I don't want you, I want 2D!" I realize the words that came out of my mouth as he starts to say something.

"Who's 2D?" He asks.

"It's me! I'm 2D!" He says very proudly as he puts an arm around my shoulder. I groan realizing I just gave this man an ego boost. Casey jumps back when he gets a look of 2D.  "Come on y/n we have big news and we need to get ready for tonight!" He says cheerfully as he leads me to the car. 

"You mind telling me again what you said? I don't think I heard you clearly" 2D smirks. 

I blush and cross my arms, "It was just a slip of the tongue, don't get an ego from it," I grumble. 

"Say it again", his voice gets a bit more raspy. 

I blush more and get a bit agitated, "I said I want 2D", I shove him out of the car and he stumbles a bit, "Now go get the stuff". 

He grins and basically skips back to the pub to help bring our stuff back to the car. 

Once everyone was done they all piled in with 2D and Noodle beside me. They all start talking excitedly at me but I can't understand what they're saying. 

I cover my ears, "One at a time please, I've had gun shots in my ears and I can't stand any more loud noises right now", I say. 

"The guy that shot the gun was Whiffy Smiffy, he's the one I sent the demo to and he just signed us to the label!" Murdoc exclaims. 

"We got signed?!" I almost yell from excitement. 

"Yes! And we have the signing party to go to tonight so be sure to dress nice", he says. 

—-

We get home and everyone immediately goes to their room to change. I open my closet and remember that I have 0 formal clothes besides a fitted long sleeve black dress with slits on both sides. I got it a few years ago as a costume. Let's see the pros are I feel powerful, it shows off a bit of my sternum bat tattoo, and I get free drinks. The con is it's a dress. I stare at it and contemplate if I want to wear it. 

What the hell, it's not like I wear feminine things often. I grab it from the rack and change into it with ripped up fishnets under it. It has a deep v neck but it covers my chest nicely. I put my boots back on to complete the look. I grab my phone and cigarettes from my backpack then go down stairs. I hesitate before I go to the living room. They've never seen me like this and I'm scared they're gonna think I'm not actually a boy.  

I take a deep breath and walk in. Everyone is in semi formal clothes. Murdoc has a gray button up with jeans. 2D has a dark purple dress shirt that's tucked in one side but not the other. Noodle has a lavender dress with a blue cardigan over it, and Russell has a red dress shirt on. I might be overdressed. Murdoc and 2D stare at me. I start to get nervous and consider changing. 

"Nice bat tattoo", Murdoc says. 

"Thanks, I uhh didn't exactly have a choice in formal clothing", I say.  

2D snaps out of his trance, "Do you want to borrow some of mine? If it'll make you more comfortable", he says, awkwardly twiddling his thumbs. 

I smile at his gesture, "um yes please, I feel a bit overdressed", I say blushing from embarrassment. 

Murdoc slaps him in the back of the head but to my surprise he just rubs where he was hit and comes to me then leads me to his room. Once we get there he grabs my hand and pulls me to him. 

"You know I think we were about to do something last night before we got interrupted", he says softly. 

"Yeah I don't think so you've been a dick to me all day", I smirk. 

"Yeah I was, these withdrawals are making me very cranky anf I'm sorry, but just know I'm gonna try to get that kiss for the rest of the night, oh and last I heard you wanted me to comfort you so that'll definitely be happening tonight too", he smiles. 

"Its okay I know its not entirely your fault, but I'll give you more of a chance if you let me cling to you at the party. After that riot I don't exactly want to do a lot of socializing and..I just want something of a safe space", I admit. 

He grins, "Of course you can luv", he kisses my forehead, "Now let's get you some clothes before Murdoc thinks we're up here snagging, not that I'd mind in the slightest", he mumbles the last part then searches through his closet.

I roll my eyes, "Shut up Stuart". 

He chuckles and pulls out a black button up shirt, and a dark purple one like the one he's wearing. I look them over and have second thoughts again. 

"What is it?" He asks.

"I don't know, I'm just not exactly feeling anything, I don't want to be stared at too much if I wear this but I also don't want to blend in with the crowd. I like the 'wow you're weird' stares not the 'oh you're a hot girl' stares", I explain. 

"You can wear whatever you want, I'll be with you the whole time", he says reassuringly, "And no matter if you wear a dress you'll still be my boy", he smiles. 

"Yours?" 

"Well something along those lines", he says.

I smile, "I'll wear the dress". 

—----

We show up at the sighning party and there's lot of people there. I get a few stares from men so I slightly hide behind 2D and grab the end of his shirt. He smiles at me then grabs my hand away from his shirt and keeps a hold of it. Whiffy comes up to us and says Damon Albarn wants to meet us. I can't believe THE Damon Albarn wants to meet us after one song. We all happily go to where he is and introduce ourselves as Gorillaz. Damon greets us then looks up and down at Murdoc. 

"Your Cuban heels are shit, look at mine, mine are of the proper sort", he says then motions to his own heels. I get a chuckle out of that and Murdoc just groans. "I'd like to work with you guys and be a vocal coach for your singer", he says. 

"We actually have two singers, y/n sang in Ghost Train but not for Punk", 2D says and motions towards me. 

"Oh, so you're the other vocals I heard in Ghost Train", he says. 

"Yeah I'm just back up vocals though maybe even back up bassist", I say. 

"You're not JUST back up vocals, they're important too. They can really make a song pop and give it that extra something. I'd like to hear you sing by yourself sometime and coach you as well". 

"I'd love to, though my voice might be shaky and I might crack because I'd be nervous at first", I say. 

"That's okay, it'll help you with stage fright as well", he says and takes a sip of his drink. 

We chat a bit more before we're called to the stage. We're handed a giant check and take a few pictures with it. I swear I saw money signs in Murdoc's eyes when he saw it. Afterwards, 2D and I go to the bar to get a drink. Noodle was with Russel so I didn't have to worry too much about her. 

"You're pretty cute, do you come here often?" 2D jokingly flirts. 

I laugh and do a little happy stim, "That was so cheesy, but it worked", I say. 

"I'd be honored to buy someone as pretty as you a drink", he continues. 

I blush and giggle a bit, "Yeah, I'd like that. I'll have a couple wine coolers", I say. 

"You're finally letting me flirt with you", he smiles then orders our drinks. 

"I enjoy attention but only from people I like", I say. 

"Ohh, so you like me?" He smirks. 

"I thought we've already established that, I'm just not ready to be in a relationship", I say. 

"Yeah, but I still like hearing you admit it," he smiles, "So do you have an idea of when you'd be ready? I'm not rushing you I'm just curious". 

"Well, I'd say a bit after we make it big. I know you're gonna have women practically throw themselves at you and I don't exactly trust you to always avoid temptation, plus I think you should enjoy that party stage. Yeah I'm gonna be a bit jealous but I'm not gonna stop you because you don't have an obligation to me until we establish the relationship", I state. 

He gets his drink and takes a sip then thinks for a second. "Does that mean you'd be doing the same?" He asks. 

I shrug, "Not exactly, I'm not a fan of one night stands I can't have sex unless I trust the person", I say as I also take a swig of my drink. 

"So that means Murdoc would be on that list right?" He says in an annoyed voice. 

"Yeah..but if that's your one boundary while we're in this middle phase I'll honor it". 

He thinks some more then looks at me, "I'll make you deal beings you're giving me a lot of freedom and I'd feel bad that I'm not giving you that chance. If you do shag him a few times just don't tell me about it, oh and no hickies where I can see them please", He says. 

"Given your history with him that's very understandable but I can't promise HE'S not going to say anything. But it's very sweet of you, I'd say you're a bit closer to getting that kiss now", I smile. 

He perks up, "Really? Can I have it now then?" 

I smile and kiss him on the cheek, "if you keep this up I'll give you a real one when we get home". 

His face turns pink as he grins from ear to ear and let's out a slight giggle but he quickly composes himself, "ugh I dont know where that came from, are you sire you didn't cast some spell on me?" 

I chuckle, "No, I don't do love spells like that you can't start a marriage with a kidnapping". 

He smiles then kisses my cheek, "I'll be right back", he says then gets up to leave. 

I end up drinking the rest of my drink as I wait for 2D and I'm half done with my second. It's only been about 10 minutes so I'm not that worried I can handle myself. 

Some man sits besides me and eyes me up and down. Oh great here we go. 

"You're with the band that just got signed right?" He asks as he slurs his words a bit. 

Great, he's drunk too. 

"Yeah I am", I say in a monotone voice.

"You're too pretty to be around guys like that", he says as he gets closer to me. I take a drink and keep my eye on him as I bounce my leg on the stool. "What are you going to ignore me now?" He asks. 

I don't answer and take my eyes away from him for a second in hopes that he'll get the hint and go away. 

"Oh come on", he says and puts a hand on my shoulder which immediately gives me the ick and I want to chop my whole arm off. 

I glare at him, "Get your fucking hand off me". 

He just leaves it there and tries to say something but I cut him by decking his face. He falls out of the stool then sits up and spits out blood. I start to speed walk away as I hear him call me a crazy bitch. I start to look for Murdoc or 2D because I know he's following me. I scratch at my shoulder to get that god awful buzzing to go away. My breathing starts to quicken and I feel tears roll down my cheeks as I hold my arms to my chest. I make my way to the hallway and look to my left to see 2D flirting with a girl is a red cocktail dress. I can't process any other feature because all I can think right now is 'I want 2D' over and over again. 

I speed walk over to him with boots making a very loud thud sound.  He immediately looks over at me and is riddled with concern. 

I stop a couple feet from him and keep my head down, "I wanna go home", I squeak out. He leaves the girl's side and comes over to inspect me.

"What happened to your shoulder and your hand?" He asks. 

I shake my head, "Just get me out of here". 

He nods and holds my hand that's not red and bruising.  He leads me outside then he flags down a cab to take us home.  He calls Murdoc to explain that we're gone on our way home. I start to feel the slightest bit better as we get closer to home.  It's a silent ride home but once the car stops I instantly jump out and make my way up the hill. 2D catches up to me after paying. 

"Can I have one of my cigarettes?" I ask. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out my box then hands me one along with my lighter. I light it then take a long drag. I exhale and feel calm enough to not have a meltdown. 

"What happened? I'm sorry I left, I promise I was just going to get her number and come back", He explains nervously. 

"It's okay, you were only gone for 10 minutes. I wasn't worried, but some pig decided they wanted to touch my shoulder", I move my scratched up shoulder in a circle just thinking about it, "I punched him and I just wanted to find you, I scratched my shoulder to get rid of that god awful lingering feeling", I say and take another long drag.

"At least you're not bleeding from it, but I should've stayed with you". 

I shake my head, "No 2D you kept your word, you stayed with me almost the whole time". 

We go to my room as soon as we walk in.  I rip a baggy shirt off the hanger and put on basketball shorts underneath my dress. I rip off my dress and put on my shirt. I let out a sigh of relief then throw the dress on the floor. I look at 2D whose face is red and he has a stupid half smile going on. 

"I needed out of that thing, didn't exactly care if you saw or not", I say bluntly.  2D takes off his dress shirt revealing a white shirt under it. He comes over to me and picks me up then lays me on top of him on the bed. He rubs my back. 

"You mind reminding me what you said to your ex earlier?" He gives a low chuckle. 

"I said I wanted you", I say softly as I bury my face into his chest. 

"Oh wow you're not even going to fight it now?" 

I shake my head. 

"Did this mean I have you wrapped around my finger now?" He jokes.

"Maybe a little", I admit.

He sits up with me still in his lap abs gets a big smile on his face,  "Can I have a kiss then?" He puts his hands on my cheeks and his smile turns soft. 

I smile and nod. He almost immediately places his lips on mine but he's gentle about it. His lips feel so soft against mine that I get a fluttery feeling in my stomach. I get a hint of smoke and alcohol as we kiss. He deepens the kiss and I can tell he's starting to want more. I almost convince myself to let him but he pulls away. He looks at me, completely love drunk. 

"That was so much better than I'd thought it would be, you're so worth the wait".

Chapter 1

I must be the master of being at the wrong place at the wrong time. I just moved here not that long ago and this is the second time I've seen a car crash right in front of me. I just want to see my dealer so I can get a few joints and go home, but I see a blue haired boy fly out of the wind shield and smack his head on the curb with a disturbing thud. I hear glass cracking underneath my boots as I run towards him. I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get to him, I'm not in the medical field but my body just instantly reacted. 

I kneel down by his head while trying to avoid shards of glass to study his injuries. It doesn't take me long to notice that he's the same boy I saw in the first crash when they put him in an ambulance. His face has bruises and cuts in a few spots and blood is flowing from his closed eyes. I hear a soft groan come from him so I put his head in my lap to give him a bit of comfort. I'm sure his head is splitting right now. I can't believe I've watched this man completely eat shit twice. He has his lips slightly parted so I can see that he's missing two front teeth. Poor man has been through hell. 

I gently put my hand on his cheek and rub his face with my thumb. He softly groans then slowly starts to open his eyes. My eyes widen in horror as I see two black voids staring up at me. 

"Wow", he mutters with a small smile.

"Dude, are you okay?" I ask in a panicked voice. 

He winces in pain as he wakes up more and starts to feel the effects of going face first into a curb. "Me head hurts..a lot, but your hands and thighs makes it feel better". 

IS THIS DENSE MOTHER FUCKER TRYING TO FLIRT WITH ME AFTER BENG THROWN OUT OF A CAR? 

I roll my eyes. "Maybe I should've just kept walking..anyway let's clean you up a bit yeah? Ya boats a mess". I don't know where the accent or slang came from. All I hear is the accent all day and I do tend to copy unintentionally. I take off my coffin shaped backpack and pull out some wet wipes then start to wipe the blood off his face. 

He tries to chuckle at my horrible accent. "Hey I was being sincere OUCH". He flinches in pain. 

"Sorry, I didn't mean to", I apologize. I finish up wiping his face and my hand that I had cupped on his cheek. "Can you stand up? You need to go to the hospital". 

He relaxes a bit and slowly nods. The black eyed man tries to find his feet and stands up slowly. I put everything back in my bag and put it on my back. I stand up and look over him again. I realize I come up to his forehead in my platform boots but without them I'd probably come up to his chin. He stumbles a bit so I hold onto him as support. 

"YOU TWO ARE PERFECT!" I hear an excited and raspy voice call out to us. I look in the direction it came from and see an excited green man jump out of the wrecked car. I immediately take notice of his messed up nose and the upside down cross necklace that bounces around his neck as he comes towards us. I recognize him as the other person involved in the first crash. "Two tall and edgy people as my lead singers? Not to mention a black eyed God, the girls are gonna go crazy for him, ah your name should be 2D because you've got two dents in your head, much better than Stuart". He continues to ramble. 

The busted up man starts to stumble more against me so I sit him back down and turn my attention towards the other one. "You fucking idiot, you put this man through two serious car accidents and look at his face! What the hell are you going on about a band? He needs to see a doctor!". 

He scoffs, "Oh he's fine, look at him!" He motions towards Stuart who's wobbling even though he's sitting down cradling his head in his hands. 

I grab the man by his shirt collar and pull him to me. "Listen here you blithering cunt, you're taking him to the hospital NOW!" I yell. 

"Oi are you single by chance?" He gives me a gross chuckle, but I ignore his question. 

"NOW!"

He holds his hands up to surrender. "Fine, fine! Whatever you say". He rolls his eyes and pulls out his phone to call an ambulance. I let him go and let out an angry sigh as I walk over to Stuart. 

I kneel down in front of him and place my hand on his knee. "Hey we have an ambulance coming for you soon okay?" I say gently. 

He looks up at me with pain written all over his face. "Are..you coming with me?" He asks rather pathetically. In fact it's so pathetic I can't say no.

"Yeah, I'll come with you, my name is y/n by the way". 

"Mine is Stuart, but 2D sounds really cool too". 

—-------

At the hospital I found out the green man's name is Murdoc. He kept trying to convince me to join his band but I always protested. 

"Come on lass! Who doesn't want to be in a band?" He pleads.

"I'm not a lass", I inform him and cross my arms. 

Murdoc eyes me up and down with a questioning look, but he lets it go. "Whatever, who am I to judge, but that wasn't a no". 

I sigh in defeat. "Look I'll think about it, will that get you off my ass?" 

Murdoc beams with happiness. "I'll take it!" 

I scoff and go in to check on Stuart. The doctor said he looks okay but they wanted to keep him a bit longer to be sure. They said his eyes will stay that way forever and they gave him some pain meds for his head. Upon entering the room I notice a girl sitting beside him with choppy dark brown hair, thin eyebrows, and red lipstick on. I must have missed her when I was bickering with Murdoc. She notices me and gives me a 'what the hell are you doing here' look. I immediately know from this look that she's the girlfriend. Whatever, I'm not exactly interested in dating at the moment. 

I walk over to stand beside Stuart's bed.  "You feeling any better now?" I ask. 

"Yeah they gave me some painkillers so I'm feeling great now", he smiles at me. "Oh! Paula this is y/n she's the one that helped take care of me when we crashed". 

"He. I'm a boy", I say bluntly as I wait anxiously for their reaction. 

"Oh, you don't look like a-"

"I'm trans let's move on", I cut him off. 

He scratches his head in confusion. "Right, uh he's the one that took care of me". I'm pleasantly surprised at his quick fix to my pronouns. Both of the boys had a better reaction than I expected. They both get an extra 20 points for not being bigots in my book. 

Paula rolls her eyes. "Well whatever you call yourself, I'm his girlfriend so you can leave him to me now". 

I frown a bit in confusion at the sudden rudeness, but I'm not about to argue so I just step out and join Murdoc in the waiting room. He's the last person I want company with but I want to stick around until Stuart gets discharged. Although his girlfriend is here so I guess I could just leave him to grab my stuff and go home. I mentally sigh remembering that he asked me to come with him so no I can't just leave, but I could step out and come back. 

"Hey, I'm gonna step out for a bit. Can I see your phone so I can give you my number?" I ask Murdoc. 

"Of course I'd love to have your number", he winks at me then hands me his phone. I take his phone and put in my number then set my name as 'y/n (back up singer). I send myself a text so I'd have his number then toss his phone back. 

"Text me updates on Stuart and if he asks for me tell him I'll be back", I say as I turn my back to leave. 

"Hey wait does this mean you're in?!" He asks when he takes notice of my name in his phone. 

"Maybe" I say on my way out the door. 

—-----

I make it back to the hospital an hour and a half later after visiting my dealer. I always shove my joints or bag in a zipper pocket I made on the inside of my boots. It's a decent hiding place. 

I waltz back to the waiting room and sit beside Murdoc. "Hey, 'ow's Stuart doing?" Damn the accent came out again. Murdoc looks at me funny then gets really close to my face. Crap he knows and I can't keep a straight face when I'm buzzed. He stares intensely at me which makes me give a big goofy grin. 

He smirks. "Oh you're completely mullered aren't you?" He whispers. 

"Not completely just wee bit buzzed". 

"At least you know how to party, also your accent was terrible". He chuckles. 

"I know..it happens unintentionally, I swear I don't mean to". I ramble. 

Murdoc laughs and ruffles up my hair. "Don't get your knickers in a twist luv, it's alright". I flinch at his touch and move his hand off my head before I got used to the feeling. "Oh? Not a touchy person?" 

"No I am, it's just I'm not used to getting physical affection anymore". I look at the ground awkwardly. "Anyway, is Paula still here? I'd like to check on Stuart". 

"No, she left a bit before you came back", He answers. I nod then walk to Stuart's. I lean against the door frame as I watch him hold a hand held mirror to inspect his new facial features.

"Yeah, they're a bit off putting aren't they?" I state. 

He jumps so bad he almost drops the mirror then snaps his head towards me. "Oh, it's you," he chuckles nervously, "I think they're cool looking, and sorry about Paula earlier". 

I shrug. "It's fine, I don't care that much. She was probably just stressed because her boyfriend is in the hospital, I'd be snappy too", I reassure him with a smile. 

He smiles back at me slightly showing off his two missing teeth. It was cute in a dorky way. "Yeah probably, so Murdoc told me he convinced you to join the band?" 

"He was very convincing when it's all he'd talk about for an hour straight, besides I guess it could be fun". 

—------

About an hour later Stuart got discharged and I invited them to my flat because it wasn't far from the hospital. Stuart looked exhausted and I didn't trust that Murdoc would have a decent place for him to sleep. 

I bring them both inside then show Stuart to my bedroom. I flick on my black light to illuminate my room so Stuart could see where he's walking. My posters and my neon worm on a string wall decorations light up immediately, giving more color to the room. He takes notice of my bed half full of stuffed animals. 

"Never thought you'd have so many cute things based on how dark you dress". He states. 

"Can't be a hard ass all the time", I say as I go over to the bed and move an old, but well taken care of, light multicolored bunny stuffy from the empty side of the bed. I put it on the other side with the rest of the stuffies while making sure it was in a comfortable position. Stuart sits on the other side of the bed once the bunny is moved. I see him give me a gentle smile from the corner of my eye. He reaches out to touch it but I stop him. 

"Please don't touch him", I mumble. 

"I wasn't gonna move..him..I just wanted to see how it felt"

"I get it but please don't, look I'm autistic and that's my comfort item which means nobody is allowed to touch it", I say. 

He gives me a very confused look. "Man you got a shit pick of the draw didn't you? With you being trans and autistic I'd imagine you don't have too many friends". 

My face drops and I look away from him as I awkwardly rub my arm. 

He notices my changed mood and quickly tries to explain himself. "Oh no I just meant that people around here can be dicks. I'm sorry. Um hey my hair grows out blue and now I have no eyeballs or two front teeth so I guess I also got the shit pick so maybe we could be friends?" He rambles. 

I chuckle at his awkward attempt at making me feel better. "Yeah I'd like to be friends...you can feel his ear if you want to". 

"Are you sure?" 

I nod. "You didn't bat an eye when I said I was trans or autistic and you listened when I said dont touch him, so I think I can trust you". 

He smiles then gently puts a long floppy ear between his fingers and rubs the fabric. "He's very soft. I can see why he's comforting, does he have a name?" He asks. The fact that he calls the bunny 'he' and not 'it' makes me a bit more fond of him.

"Sherbert", I mumble a bit embarrassed. 

Stuart chuckles, "That's cute, so you mentioned that I listened to you and that's why you trust me, did other people not listen?" 

"Yeah, I've had three people over and they all purposely picked him up and moved him or pushed him on the floor. They wanted to get a reaction out of me and well they did but it wasn't what they wanted. I busted their faces then dragged them out of my flat, THEN I cried". 

He half smiles at me,"I promise I'd never be mean to Sherbert", he says softly like he's trying to comfort me. 

"Stuart I can't tell if you're being genuine or if you're secretly making fun of me" I say bluntly. 

"I don't want to break your trust luv, it's genuine and if I break that promise you can make me eat a curb again". 

I can't help but laugh. "I'll hold you to it, well I should let you get some sleep, I'll turn off the light so it doesn’t mess with your head". 

He takes one last look around and smiles warmly. "Yeah, thank you for everything today," 

"No problem, goodnight Stuart", I turn off the light and close the door behind me. I go to the living room and find Murdoc examining all of my bat and coffin decor. I take off my boots and get the joints out then I stand on the arm of my couch so I can reach the top of my bookshelf. 

"Ah so you dabble a bit too huh?" I turn my head to see Murdoc talking about my altar that has crystals, candles, a couple crystal pendulums, my tarot deck and a Loki statue. 

"Oh yeah I do some witchcraft", I say as I grab my little metal tin and put all of the joints but one in then put it back. I take off my backpack to grab my red Nokia and cigarettes then place them with the joint on the bay window. 

"Who's the statue of?" He asks. 

"That's Loki he's the god I work with slash worship", I inform him as I open up the side window and sit on the bay window. I light a cigarette and blow the smoke out. "Speaking of which, can you light his candle for me? It's the red one right in front of the statue, there's a lighter right beside it too". 

Murdoc scans my altar real quick before he finds the lighter and tries to light it. He tries to light it a few times but all that comes out is sparks. 

He starts to get frustrated, "Oi I think your lighter is dead". He says. 

I take a drag of my cigarette and shake my head as I go to him. "No that's not the problem," I put the cigarette in my mouth then take the lighter from Murdoc and light it with ease. I light the candle then smirk. "I'm so sorry I dared have someone else light your candle you fussy thing". I watch the flame get bigger and wiggle around then smile. 

"Let me see that lighter again".

I hand it to him and he lights it on the first try. "This is shit".

I chuckle and go back to where I was sitting. "He didn't want you to light his candle, I bought that lighter yesterday so I knew what the issue was", I say as I grab my phone and add Murdoc to my contacts. 

He rolls his eyes. "I guess he is a fussy thing", he mumbles then comes to me and pulls out his own pack of cigarettes, "Care if I join you?". 

I shake my head as I take a drag. "Open the other corner window and take a seat, blow your smoke out the window though. I don't want my place smelling like smoke".  

He nods and opens the window then takes a seat opposite of me. He puts a cigarette in his mouth and tries to light it but his lighter won't light. "You gotta be fucking me UGH". 

I laugh. "I guess Loki didn't like it when you called him fussy". 

"YOU called him fussy!" 

"I'm allowed to, that's how we joke", I chuckle. "Here use mine". I slide my lighter to him.

"Thanks", he says in an aggravated tone and finally lights his cigarette. "You better not make freaky shit happen when I get the band all put together", he slides my lighter back to me and takes a hit. 

"Don't fuck with me and it shouldn't be a problem", I chuckle. 

"Right", he says. 

We sit there in silence as we finish our cigarettes. 

"I was going to offer you a smoke with me after I got done smoking but I'm tired", I say as I put my cigarette out in the ashtray. 

Murdoc does the same. "Yeah I'm pretty tired myself. I'm gonna grab 2D and we'll be out", he says as he stands up and closes the window. 

"He's okay you can leave him", I say as I close mine then put away the joint I left out with the others. 

"Are you sure you're comfortable with that?"

"Yeah I trust him". 

"But you don't trust me to spend the night?" Murdoc asks.

I narrow my eyebrows at him. "I want you to look at Stuart's non-existent eyes and ask me that again". 

He scoffs. "I'm never gonna hear the end of this". He says as he makes his way out the door. 

I sigh in relief to finally have some alone time. However, I decide to enjoy it by falling asleep on the couch. 

[enspey]

Even though the demo for Novaturient isn’t out yet, the asks that @kalorphic does for the cast just made it too tempting. I cannot express how much I look forward to seeing this IF come out.

Without further delay, here is the proposed MC Sage T. Valentine. No she won’t tell you her middle name and suggesting it’s Thyme/Tarragon/AnyotherspicewithT will get stuff thrown at you.

Since I only have asks to go off of, I can only venture to guess she will either be interested in K or Noah (mostly because of the nicknames ask and she would call him honeypoohloverbutton). She’s somewhere between Penelope Garcia (Criminal Minds) and Martha McKay (Mr. Right). Smart, sassy, a little clueless, and marches to her own soundtrack.

Fun facts:

Loves weird animals, like platypus, hippos, and flamingos (her first favorite animal ever since a zoo visit when she was little). She has a pink platypus kigurumi that she wears without shame at home.

Platypus are the reason K’s ringtone is a rotation of Katy Perry songs. Because Perry the platypus is a spy. K is a spy. K Perry….omg…forever going to have those songs as ringtones. That’s how her logic works. It makes perfect sense. Hush. And yes when the rotation went to Peacock she lost her mind and it lasted all of two seconds before she had to change it because it was too awkward for even her.

Once burned water. Okay, it was more the pot burned beyond recognition after the water evaporated and she forgot about it. She absolutely cannot cook, she can be trusted to reheat leftovers though, and knows every take out place and restaurant in the area.

Pink is her favorite color since her introduction as a child to flamingos.

No coordination to speak of. However she did once accidentally almost take someone’s eye out with chopsticks she threw. It was an accident. She was aiming at them in general not eye specific and they deserved it. They ate the last egg roll. What heathen steals the last egg roll. Don’t steal her food (ask and she’ll share you guttersnipe). Unless you’re K. They are allowed (this is a fact even if she’s with someone else).

Would love to have a pet possum. They can be pets, right? No? Oh, well. They are cute and useful, you’ll never convince her otherwise. Instead she just has a fish tank with lots of colorful fish, all lovingly named after people at work.

She is the nap queen. Will fall asleep in the worst positions and places. May be part cat. Is she a fluid or a solid? No one knows.

It’s super tiny in the picture, but I spent time making it, so here is a larger picture of the pink platypus.

I need a break from reality so here are some GE Saeran headcanons

As we saw from day 10, he's a bit awkward in the chats with the rfa at first, so it takes a few weeks for him to ease into conversation naturally. His speech is really formal for the longest time even after that, but eventually he settles into more relaxed interactions with the rfa

He becomes close with Yoosung. He's been trying to get Saeran to learn how to play LoLoL, but after a couple nights of playing together, Saeran more or less stopped being active on the computer because he was still tired of looking at computer screens from his time at Magenta.

Yoosung doesn't complain because Saeran is better at it than him after just a few matches, so he doesn't follow up on it.

He doesn't care for social media. He understands how to use it, but he has no interest in making himself miserable by keeping up on anything other than a webcomic or two.

The concept of webcomics fascinates him. Yoosung introduced them to him, too. He tends to find one he likes and binge reads it until he's all caught up. Things with mystery or lore appeal to him because he likes to get analytical and philosophical with the media he consumes. Keeps a small notebook for reflections and predictions.

He's a sucker for a good adventure with a romance, so long as there isn't anything triggering like abuse or violence. Enjoys a wholesome story with a happy ending just as much as any mystery.

Saeran is 100% the kind of person to get lost in a hobby so you have to check in on him periodically and remind him to eat, lest he spend 7 to 10 hours gardening without rest. More than once he's spent the whole day in the garden, only to just take a break after he's realized the sun is already setting.

Outside of nature, I can see Saeran having casual artistic interests or hobbies, too. He prefers painting to drawing because it doesn't make him feel compelled to get everything perfect. The permanence and decisiveness of painting keeps him from dwelling too much on his progress. He likes painting landscapes, especially ones with big blue skies. And of course he uses the garden for inspiration. He mixes media sometimes, using flowers in his works.

Casual piano player. He's been teaching himself by observing YouTube videos. He knows a couple songs after about a month. They're simple and cheerful like a music box. Peaceful melodies like each of the character piano themes in the game. Yes. Saeran definitely knows how to play Endless Struggle. 😭

Of course everything takes a backseat to gardening (except you)

When his hair starts to grow out, he really wants to bleach it again, but his therapist has been working with him on accepting himself fully as he is so he decides to go natural again

You and the twins have regular movie nights. Sometimes Zen and Yoosung join, too. Saeran is ok with pretty much anything except horror or gore. He likes laying on the couch with his head in your lap while you watch movies.

You're his biggest weakness, so Saeyoung likes to use it to his advantage and one time dressed you up in a cute kigurumi to mess with Saeran.

Speechless and face burning red, Saeran covers his hand with his mouth to keep from making surprised noises of adoration. Doesn't know how to express his feelings because he's bursting with them so he practically faints on the spot because it's too cute. Saeyoung uses the opportunity to take the last strawberry ice cream bar from the freezer.

Yoosung and Saeyoung once dared you to say something really cliche and cringey to him just to bet on his reaction (like some sort of cheesy line from a k drama or calling him oppa).

You were curious so you obliged. It was a real "finish him" moment - like he was KO'd on sight, and Saeyoung even made a small eulogy in the chat. They definitely filmed it.

His face is red enough to match his hair and that's what motivates you to keep messing with him.

...Until he banned his brother from visiting for a week because the last time you two pulled a stunt, Saeran was putting away the dishes and lost his balance, nearly losing a hand to the knife he was putting away. For everyone's safety, you agreed to at least refrain from teasing him while he's handling sharp cutlery.

MC: Can we wake up everyone, yet?

Monika: We still need Yuri to have a solo breakthrough before we can activate everyone. She’s been difficult…

MC: Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Monika: I think so. You’re going to need some more masks, though.

MC: It might be nice to be on the other side of things for once…

*One playthrough later*

Yuri: Natsuki, Sayori, don’t be alarmed, but I think our entire world is a dating sim. *Turns towards Monika and MC* And I’m the main character, aren’t I? Monika is the tutorial, MC is the secret route, and they’re both self aware!

Monika:

MC:

*MC and Monika laugh maniacally as MC switches to a kigurumi mask with an evil expression. They’re all transported to the Void Room.*

MC: Oh, man! I can’t believe you figured it out!

Natsuki: Wait, she’s right?

MC: Yeah. Darn it, she’s right.

Monika: We had a good run, though, didn’t we?

MC: Yeah we did.

*MC and Monika laugh maniacally again*

Sayori: Do we at least make people happy?

Monika: “Do we at least make people happy?”

MC: Sayori, you absolute Best Girl! Never change!

Monika: Well, I guess we should let them know you girls are on your way.

Natsuki: On our way where?

Monika: To your real games. The devs let us run you through to check ours for bugs and see how the beta testers like our setup. Now, you’re going to…

MC: *points at Sayori* A much better dating sim. *points at Natsuki*  A happy baking game. *points at Yuri* And a horror/mystery choose your own adventure game.

Monika: We’ll let you three mull over that for a while…

*In the clubroom proper, watching the three of them on a screen*

MC: Come on. You can do it, Yuri…

Sayori: I don’t want to leave here…

Natsuki: Yeah. You all are my friends.

Yuri: This can’t be right… There has to be something that we’re not getting…

Natsuki: What do you mean?

Yuri: Why would they have the beta test star characters that are going to be characters of different games? Where are the other characters? Why would MC have no face and why would there be a token male option for the secret route in a game like this?

Monika: Come on…

Yuri: This game is designed with psychological horror themes–!

*The game forcibly shuts down*

*Moments later, MC and Monika are cheering and high-fiving in the title screen.*

MC: She did it!

Monika: She did it!

Both: Finally!

Monika: Right at the very last second, but she did it! She achieved self-awareness!

MC: I do find it kinda hilarious that she thought I was a secret route just because she only played the Natsuki route and nothing else.

Monika: I have to admit, being called the tutorial was kind of hurtful. I’m the exposition and assistance character.

MC: …I can think of at least one of those things that you don’t do.

Monika: Yes, but this isn’t about me. We’re going to have all our friends with us!

A/N: S/O to the discord for indulging me in my Disney obsession :’D Fun fact, when I went to Disneyland for Halloween, I borrowed my friend’s Pikachu kigurumi so that I could lowkey cosplay as Denki LOL

Taglist: @jojosmilktea

♡ ⌒*ﾟ.❉・゜・。. ♡ ⌒*ﾟ.❉・゜・。. ♡ ⌒*ﾟ.❉・゜

BAKUGOU KATSUKI

You had to do so much convincing to get him to even go to one park, let alone two

Teases you and smirks saying, “Why do you want to go to some lame theme park? I’m all the fun you need, princess.” 

Bakugou ends up giving in to your begging because… how can he resist such a cute face? 

He is super whiny in the beginning, literally complaining about every little thing

“Why the fuck is all the shit here so damn expensive?”, “The lines are too fucking long!” 

Don’t even bother trying to get him to wear any kind of Mickey Ears either

He thinks it looks adorable on you though, not that he’d admit it 

However, after seeing how much fun you were having, he eases up a bit and begins to enjoy himself too

Actually, he ends up becoming more excited than you

Once you start getting tired from all the walking and constant queuing, he mocks you and says “What? You’re tired already? I could keep this up for hours!” 

His go-to pose for the ride photos is to flip off the camera

And yes, you guys end up buying a copy of all the pictures because he thinks it’s fucking hilarious

His favorite attraction to go on is Toy Story Midway Mania because he knows he’ll kick your ass and get a higher score than you; or Radiator Springs Racers, so he can win the race and kick other people’s ass 

KIRISHIMA EIJIROU

He’s such a child at heart that he was actually the one who asked you to go to Disneyland

Had already bought the tickets in advance because he already knew you’d say yes. You felt kind of bad that he had to spend all that money for both of your tickets

“E-eji, are you sure you don’t want me to pay you back? These tickets must have been so expensive!” 

“Don’t worry about it babe, I’ve been saving my allowance to buy us these tickets. I wanted to take you out on a magical date at the happiest place on earth!” 

He really was the sweetest boyfriend

On the days leading up to your date, you two start planning out matching outfits, what rides you guys for sure want to go on, and all the new foods you can’t want to try! 

The night before, the two of you have a Disney movie marathon, snuggled up on the couch eating popcorn while watching all those childhood classics! 

His favorite movie is The Little Mermaid because where else did you think he got the inspiration to dye his hair red? Princess Ariel

Day of, you guys are BEYOND excited

Kirishima wakes up extra early to start getting ready, letting you get in a few more minutes of sleep

Once you get there, the first thing you both do is take a picture in front of Main Street! He pretty much documents your entire trip on his phone, taking candid photos of you being the cutie you were

He makes it his new lockscreen wallpaper

While he was waiting in line to buy some food, you went to the shop and bought a matching pair of Mickey and Minnie ears, wanting to surprise him

Smothered you in smooches because he was so happy you guys were matching head to toe, literally 

“Thanks babe! I’m never gonna take this off!” 

And he never took his ears off. He wore it all day. How it didn’t fall of his head was a question you had no answer to

You two were the definition of cringey couple; matching outfits, constant PDA

Not that he cared what other people thought. He was happy and you were happy, that’s all that mattered to him

Go-to ride pose is leaning over next to you, grabbing your entire face, and giving you a big kiss on the cheek 

Favorite ride is Hyperspace Mountain, loves the thrill of it plus, it makes his hair look extra spikey because the wind pushes it back up 

KAMINARI DENKI

You guys are such kids, after you guys went the first time, you came back so often and ultimately decided that it would be better to buy annual passes

Your guy’s Disney trips were always very spontaneous, to say the least 

Kaminari would be like, “Hey babe, what if we go to Disneyland tomorrow?” 

“Come again? You want to go to Disneyland tomorrow?” 

“Yeah, why not? We haven’t been in awhile” He says, nonchalantly 

Giving in to his pouting, that’s how the two of you usually end up at the parks

You go so often you basically have a routine down

You two take turns doing everything; driving, paying for parking, paying for food, etc

During the drive there, you guys are singing non-stop. For some reason, he knows almost all the lyrics to every single song, making you wonder how he can memorize all those words and somehow still have no clue how to remember a simple math formula

You guys also try to Disney Bound (basically, it’s a lowkey cosplay) most of the time, but if not, you guys will always wear matching outfits

Unlike most people, he actually really enjoys wearing the Mickey ears, he thinks he looks extra cute in them. You agree

His ride pose often changes, from ‘hitting the woah’ to literally bringing a prop on the ride, he just does whatever he thinks is funny

But you often collaborate with each other while waiting in line to decide what pose you should do together; if no ideas come up, throwing up a peace sign is the standard move

Favorite ride to go on is Splash Mountain, hands down. He always asks to sit in the front. For some reason, he loves the feeling of getting absolutely fucking drenched

As a tradition, you two always make it your last ride of the night. Since it’s colder, there’s really not much of a wait, meaning you guys have an entire log to yourselves and can pretty much go on it as many times as your hearts desire 

TODOROKI SHOUTO

You were aware that Todoroki had probably never been to Disneyland before, considering he spent most of his childhood training

So when you asked him if he’s ever actually gone to the parks, he was like, “Isn’t that the amusement park who has a rat as their mascot? His name is Mikey, right?”, “So, Elsa has an ice quirk too?” 

You swore that this boy would be the death of you

You were quick to educate him on all things Disney, telling him stories of when you were younger and how they were some of your fondest memories as a kid

Wanting your boyfriend to share the same experience as you, you eagerly suggested that the two of you must go together one day, and he seemed just as eager with his response

He said, “Okay then, let’s go this Saturday. It’s the weekend so we most likely won’t be busy anyways.”

“Uh Shouto, honey, I’d love to go but I’m pretty broke right now, tickets are expensive so it’ll probably take me a few weeks to save up for —“ you complained

He cut you off right there and says that he’ll pay for everything, whipping out Endeavor’s credit card 

Why did he have that on him??

Before you could protest and scold him for using someone else’s card, it was too late because he already bought them

Once in the parks, he seems to be quite fascinated by everything, but his focus tends to stay on you, watching how excited you get over every little thing

You guys get matching ears, but he’s not too keen on wearing them. At most, he’ll wear it for pictures, but that’s about it. But he also can’t help but admire how cute you look in them 

Buys you literally anything you want. Overpriced merchandise? Done. Overpriced food? You bet. Overpriced everything? Abso-fucking-lutely. Doesn’t care about the price, as long as you’re happy

Even if he doesn’t explicitly show it, he’s actually having a lot of fun! 

Being in such a magical place with his favorite person in the world makes him want to go back, reliving those childhood moments he didn’t really have

Inevitably, he ends up upgrading your tickets to an annual pass 

“You bought us annual passes?! Why did you do that, and when?!” 

“I did it on the app, while you were in that long line for the bathroom.” He said, feigning innocence

You two end up going at least twice a month, if not more. Pretty much going there to just hang out and walk around 

His poses for the rides aren’t really poses per se, it’s really just his poker face. Occasionally, you’ll pinch his cheeks to give a little flare to your photos 

Favorite ride is Soarin’ Around The World. He likes the visual appeal. Plus, the orange scent smells really good 

MIDORIYA IZUKU

Both of you guys were equally excited to go! 

You two had planned to go for some time now, saving up enough money to buy tickets and acknowledging the fact that you guys would spend a lot on food and other things 

Izuku is such a nerd that he basically makes an entire schedule of your guy’s stay, morning until night

He grabs a copy of the park map and actually brings a pen to circle which rides you guys want to go on throughout the day

He will definitely download the app in order to keep track of wait times 

Plans for which rides you guys should go on first, taking into account the the events that people would be watching instead of waiting in lines, making the most of your time

“Okay, if the wait time for Radiator Springs Racers is 90 minutes, by the time we’re done, we should make it just in time to use our fastpass for Grizzly River Run…”

It kind of amazes you how articulate he was about this whole thing

“Wow, babe. I can’t believe you planned for all of that, I thought we were just going with the flow.” You said, teasing him for being such a nerd. How cute

His hero costume basically had bunny ears on them, so he didn’t complain about wearing the Mickey ears 

You two take lots of pictures, you guys even wait in that long line to take that cliché couple photo in front of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle

Go-to pose varies depending on the ride, usually the camera catches him by surprise, so in almost all of the pictures, he looks like he’s about to cry 

Doesn’t really have a favorite ride but his absolute favorite thing to do is to watch the fireworks towards the end of the night

He enjoys just sitting there and holding you close in his arms while you two watch the show and sing along to the music

BnHA One-Shot Fic Recs (pt2)

 I AM HERE! With more recs for you! The last post was all about DadMight, such a beautiful genre *wipes tear from eye* This time its DADZAWA! if you happen to follow me, you might know that i really really(really) love Aizawa. a lot. So im going to try to keep this to only 10 recs, but,, well,,,, we’ll see anyway leTS GO

Aches and Pains by Badwolf36 Rating: G     Category: Gen     ~2700 words Summary: In which Izuku isn't willing to admit how much pain he's in, and Mr. Aizawa is just as much of a softie for his students as he always is. I’m always SO WEAK to stories that deal with the very real consequences of breaking all of your bones. Poor Izuku. I enjoyed the details of how he’s feeling, the way that the reader’s awareness of his pain waxes and wanes along with Izuku’s (temporary distractions can only do so much, A+ for realism there). Also, soft Dadzawa while not mushy-ooc-Aizawa! Conclusion: I love this and also want Aizawa to make me hot cocoa when there’s storms and i cant sleep!! (sidenote, everytime i see this username my brain shorts out bc my old ff.net account was also Badwolf## lol)

My Neighbor Shouta-ro by Hound_of_Heaven Rating: G     Category: Gen     ~2,700 words Summary: Yamada Hizashi, on Christmas Eve of the year he turns 19, jokingly presents Aizawa Shouta, also 19, with a Totoro kigurumi. Everything that follows after is pure chance. Heeeeeeeeeck this is ADORABLE. I- You guys- this is so pure and so precious and so!! go read it, i died. such fluff.

constrained by my own mind (im not fine) by CamsthiSky (tumblr: @camsthisky ) Rating: G     Category: Gen     ~1,500 words Summary: Midoriya Izuku is a problem child, and for some reason, Aizawa Shouta cares too much to let him fend for himself when the kid is obviously dealing with something First of all this is written by one of my fav Batfam writers!!! I was so hype when i saw this posted and OF COURSE IT WAS JUST AS WONDERFUL IF NOT MORE SO THAN I EXPECTED!!!! A+++++ in character for both Izuku and Aizawa. Izuku is jumpy and anxious and stressed and i love it. That the way Izuku started out, and while i am eternally happy at how much his life and social reactions have already changed, stuff like that doesnt just disappear in even a year, so I love fics that address that and expound on all the progress that he would have to make behind the scenes. and having Aizawa as the catalyst to begin getting actual help? *chef’s kiss* This checks boxes and then proceeds to cover the page in checkmarks LOL

remember from here on in by aloneintherain (tumblr: @captainkirkk ) Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~8000 words warning: spoiler heavy from manga chp 215 Summary: Aizawa glances from All Might to Midoriya quickly. It sounds impossible—he’s never heard of a quirk that can be handed down like a family heirloom—but at the same time, it makes perfect sense. Midoriya’s inability to use his quirk at the start of the year. The strange, familial relationship between All Might and Midoriya. The slow malnourishment of All Might’s body, like his power was being siphoned away. “You’re …” Aizawa begins.“I’m All Might’s successor.” Midoriya’s proud but shaky voice rings clearly down the empty corridor. Aizawa finds out about One for All. Awwwwwwww yiiiiiiiissssssssss!!!!! reveal fic!!!! one of my all time fav tropes!!! Plus it expounds on some future theorys/possibilities(Spoilers!!!) and you get some great interactions between Izuku and Shinsou, and plenty of opportunities taken to wear out our already worn out catepillar-sensei. poor guy needs a break but would do anything for these kids. Incredible characterization, great feels!!

Those Hardest to Love Need it Most by DancingintheStorm Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~8,200 words Summary: Shouta gripped the phone tight enough to make the phone case groan. “So it’s true. Midoriya was Quirkless.”“Until soon before the entrance exam,” Nedzu confirmed. “That’s not relevant now, though, because—““Relevant?” Shouta hissed. “Midoriya is barely functional, socially. He doesn’t trust any adult. He thinks the whole world hates him. He apologizes for everything except breaking the law, and I’m sure I can trace every single one of those things back to his Quirklessness. You call that irrelevant?”  Aizawa visits Aldera Junior High and finds out some disturbing truths. Yes. Just. Yes. Righteous anger abounds, local anxiety-child is told for the first time that his life has worth, more at 10 (I LOVE THIS ONEEE)

The Gaunlet and friendships and how memes tie the two together by averypassionateperson Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~3,500 words Summary: Shinsou walks into his first day in the Hero Course hoping to get politely ignored. He walks out having gotten into a sanctioned fistfight with the entire Bakusquad and a whole lot of new friendships. Also, memes are responsible for most of this. This fic is SOOOOOOOOO much fun. Always sure to bring a smile and honestly all I could want from a fic about Shinsou’s first day in 1A!!!

like light through a window by achievingelysium   (tumblr: @queenangst ) Rating: T     Category: Gen     1,139 words Summary: The first time Shouta sees what Hagakure looks like, it’s because she’s covered in blood. Coming from one of the best Dadzawa writers around, is a delightfully haunting fic centered on Hagakure!! The Dazawa is of course, spot on, the premise makes your heart ache as it plays out like a movie in your mind. So smooth to read, while so emotionally painful. Ouch. It is a fic with imagery that has stuck in my mind like a plant with deep roots, bc i keep thinking about it despite my too-much-fanfic-reading-adhd-muddled-brain. I feel like i had more to say but tumglr erased the paragraph i had originally written. D:   (side note, as i am keeping these posts to 10 fics... this fic came from her series of 30 min fics which you can find here on tumblr ao3  its an absolute goldmine of one-shots, go check it out)

a frozen pond, dark and deep by walking_through_autumn Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~3,800 words Summary: In the aftermath of Endeavour's battle against High End, Aizawa escorts Todoroki to his home for special leave, and they have a conversation that has been long in the making. (Or: Over two car rides and the mystery known as bubble tea, Aizawa divulges information, Todoroki returns the favour, and trust is built over unexpected similarities.) This fic felt just as quiet as the two characters it surrounds, which was really nice. Even deep emotional grieving can be quiet, since everyone feels things and reacts to things differently. It was a brilliant way to chip away at these character’s walls to let light shine through without creating an earthquake event to destroy the walls completely, you know? and it works off of canon so well. ah yes seeing the process of Aizawa realizing that hes has adopted another child is my fav    anyhow i enjoyed it very much!

but still my heart is heavy (with the hate of some other man’s beliefs) by honeyandsunshine Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~3,500 words Summary: Nemuri jerks a thumb to the side window, presumably the one with the best view of the front gates. When Shouta looks, a small crowd, all of which he can recognize from his class, are gathered around a sleazy looking man with a camera and a microphone. Half their quirks are activated. Bakugou and Todoroki are smoking. From the bushes nearby, a rather enraged stag emerges. As he gets up, Shouta just hopes they haven’t already killed him. Or:Class 1-A defends their own. Aizawa suffers, but looks after them anyways. I love how this doesn’t go the way you expect it to. and how much Aizawa loves and trusts his class full of gremlin heroes. The Dadzawa is so soft, his logic is sound, my heart aches, and i kinda want to cry. really, really, really great you guys

bend, don’t break by heyhamlet (tumblr: @hey-hamlet ) Rating: T     Category: Gen     ~4,100 words Summary: It started, as it always seemed to, on what was supposed to be a pleasant day. ---A Christmas shopping attempt gone wrong, Aizawa and Midoriya have to survive a strange nightmare quirk, all while trying to work out how to get out of there alive. Aizawa is injured, Midoriya is panicked. It's less a question of what could go wrong, but more what could go right. Another fic that has not left my soul since i read it. Some of it is truly terrifying in a way that I hope never haunts my own nightmares. and honestly isnt that reason enough to read it? While near death experiences bond people together well, nothing beats being trapped with someone in a nightmare that is feeding off of your deepest fears! If Aizawa wasn’t considering adoption before, he certainly is now. Found family before the monster finds you...0.o go read it, its a treat from another top notch writer!

well, thats 10! the next post will probably be misc. bnha one-shots. Enjoy and don’t forget to give the writers your souls love and comments!

Wei Wuxian: *wearing a sexy little bunny costume with shorts and a corset and black stockings and combat boots* Am I adorable? A-Cheng, I spent so long on this costume, I can’t believe Lan Zhan agreed to be bunnies with me this year! *all bouncy and excited. Like a bunny.*

Jiang Cheng: *sighing, dressed as Indiana Jones because every year he chooses a costume with a whip, a little bored looking* I don’t even see why he would agree to this at all. You know Lans never show that much skin.

Wei Wuxian: Well, I mean, I’m not showing that much skin myself. *is totally walking around with his arms and cleavage out like a skank tho*

*door opens*

Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji: *enter, wearing kigurumi, LWJ dressed as a white rabbit, LXC dressed as a puppy*

Jiang Cheng: *looking very carefully at WWX, wondering if he’ll be upset that LWJ and him dont match*

WWX: *absolutely Melting™️ and coming over to nuzzle up into his big soft comfy boyfriend* Lan Zhan is so perfect and amazing and I cannot imagine a better costume. Thank you for being bunnies with me.

Lan Wangji: *horney cause lil boytoy all nuzzled up on him and lookin hot enough to eat* Mm. *gives WWX gentle kiss on forehead* Happy birthday, Wei Ying. Will always be your bunny.

Wei Wuxian: *absolutely melting into his arms and sniffling*

Jiang Cheng: Wow. I can’t believe I expected him to be upset over this one.

Lan Xichen: *grinning cause he totally called it, and that’s why he got LWJ a bunny kigurumi when he got his puppy one, knowing LWJ wouldn’t want a sexy Halloween costume* I don’t think they would truly love each other so much if they couldn’t take their artistic differences and see it as beautiful, not offensive for it’s non-conformity. It’s in their very nature, to take the same subject up with different strokes of a paintbrush.

Jiang Cheng: *wasnt entirely sure LXC could count past 100 last week, but that was shockingly insightful* Ahh. There is that, yes. You also look nice in your... adult onesie.

Lan Xichen: Thank you. Should we proceed to the party? I heard the Wens and your sister have a big surprise planned for Xian-di.

Jiang Cheng: Yeah, let’s go before they get curious enough to follow. They’ll probably make out in here for a good twenty minutes if we let them.

A Ponderous Rewatch: Cameo in Sir Yaksalot

We’re having a mini-post about a cameo for this entry, and it’s the longest and most involved cameo yet. Plus, it’s animated by TMS Entertainment, which is always a delight to see.

Let’s take a look at “Sir Yaksalot”.

This has nothing to do with Pinky and the Brain, but I thought I’d point it out anyway since I find it delightful. Back in the late 1970s, TMS Entertainment animated the Lupin the 3rd “Red Jacket” anime series. In this episode the very first populated scene has an appearance by Jigen, who is one of the characters in that anime. I imagine this easter egg flew right over the heads of most of the western audience back in the 90s. It’s so charming that TMS made reference to their old work all these years later.

If you’ve never watched this Lupin the 3rd anime, have a few out-of-context bizarre and funny moments from the series to get a taste of it. It’s a delight.

Anyway, the basic run-down of this episode is that it takes place in Camelot, where Sir Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table live. All is pretty peaceful until a dragon starts attacking the place, burning down houses, and roasting people alive in the street.

…Like so.

But hey, that doesn’t have anything to do with our duo of mice, right?

Well, I hate to have to spoil the whole twist to the situation here, but it’s kind of important to do so for the analyzing purposes of this rewatch. So what’s the twist?

The dragon is actually a mecha assembled and piloted by Pinky and the Brain.

I’ve gotta say, this is actually quite bizarre for the duo to do. Brain’s plans are nearly always non-violent. And even if the odd plan involves violence or lasting harm, Pinky is quick to admonish Brain for doing so.

But now in this episode we have them terrorizing a kingdom, burning down houses, burning folks left and right… What’s going on here?!? I mean, I guess the part where they’re roasting people is moreso in a cartoony character-is-just-blackened-with-soot-and-they’re-fine kind of way, but still.

OH LORD, IT’S HEADED FOR US!

Anyway, the “dragon” defeats the knights of the kingdom and begins trying to break into the castle.

We’re going to skip a large part of the story here as it doesn’t involve the mice directly. All you need to know is that King Arthur asks Merlin to conjure up a brave and powerful knight to slay the dragon…and Merlin’s magic summons the Warner Siblings instead. Eventually, the Warners agree to do their best to get rid of Camelot’s dragon problem.

Meanwhile, the dragon has gone back to the kingdom at large to continue the rampage. I guess the castle door was too much of an obstacle for some reason?

Oh no, they’ve spotted something…

BOYS, NO! What the fuck?!?

I guess…I guess you could say that since this is actually a mecha that we’re looking at here, this old man would just be held hostage inside the belly area and our duo is just doing a really good acting job at the moment. However, this is still something that’s really, really out of Pinky and Brain’s usual modus operandi. Maybe Brain’s the one doing all the work at the moment and Pinky’s somewhere else in the mecha, distracted and unaware of the chaos happening? That’s the only way this could make any sort of sense to me, and having Brain working by himself without Pinky there do second-guess him and be his conscience usually results in Brain getting more carried away and having his morals slip a bit.

“Comedy! Dragon comedy! The best dragon comedians in all of Camelot!”

Oh thank goodness for your distraction, Yakko!

“Right here, free peasant with every drink! Oh yes, right this way, sir!”

“Hmm?”

The dragon goes right on in. Curiosity got the better of Brain, I suppose.

“And now, dragons and drag-ettes, the Camelot Comedy Cabaret presents the funniest dragon in all of Camelot: Henny Dragon!”

Oh my lord, Yakko, that dragon kigurumi is adorable!

“Ah-haha! Thank you, thank you! You’re too kind!”

“Hey, how about that lady in the lake? I mean, how long can she hold her breath?”

Aww, Wakko has one too.

“Hehehehehe…”

All right, this is totally not Brain at the reins anymore. He’s not one for these kinds of jokes. I’m guessing Pinky got curious about what was going on and Brain let him have control for a little while?

“Candy? Gum? Dynamite?”

And there’s Dot in her own costume! You look very cute, sweetie.

The dragon shakes his head in refusal, but—

“On the house, sugar.”

The dragon’s all blushy and he mumbles something unintelligible and waves in thanks. Yeah, that’s definitely not Brain controlling the mecha anymore.

“How ‘bout that King Arthur, huh? I’ll never forget the first time we met—“

“—but I’m tryin’.”

Oh boy, the dragon’s laughter is getting more intense and…umm. Hmm. I think we all know where this is going.

“I’m slayin’ ‘em.”

[snerk] Thanks, Yakko.

“Hey hey! What’s green and stands in the corner?”

“A naughty frog.”

We’ve got full-on belly laughs here, folks. It’s only a matter of time now.

“Naw, really, you’ve been a great audience. We’re outta here!”

Welp, here we go.

Yeah, sorry. This one’s all on you, buddy.

HOLY SHIT! That’s much more violent an explosion than I was expecting!

See you, space cowboy.

There’s the reveal. How did Brain (with some help from Pinky) assemble a mecha like this in medieval times? He’s just that good, I suppose.

This junked mecha is giving me Five Nights at Freddy’s vibes and I’m not sure how I feel about that.

“Ah hehahe—‘naughty frog’! Narf! AhHAhaha!”

There’s our boys! Man, TMS makes them so adorable. Look at Pinky’s smile! He’s so precious. And Brain is, too, even though he’s so frustrated right now. ‘Lil grumpy-gus…

“Hysterical, Pinky.”

BONK!

“Zort!”

“…Mice?”

“But WHY?!?”

Honestly, King Arthur? Same.

“We were trying to destroy Camelot in yet another attempt to take over the world.”

W-were you, now? I… Listen, I know you’re not one to think about the details at all, Brain, but this is on a whole other level.

“Come, Pinky. Back to the drawing board.”

“’Stands in the corner’… ‘Naughty frog’… Ah HAHAHAHA!”

SMACK!

“They’re Pinky! They’re Pinky and the Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain--!~”

SPLAT!

That’s it for the cameo. It sure was…something. I honestly don’t know quite what to make of it. The whole Pinky and the Brain twist doesn’t really work unless you make some leaps of logic to try and puzzle out who was in charge of the mecha and when, and it’s an overly aggressive and violent plan…which is very rare for the two mice.

At least the animation was a joy to look at!

Eddie loves costumes that require or are helped by being done by a group. Couples costumes, friend group costumes... And when he has his own little ones, family costumes! David, meanwhile, doesn’t care much for making a spectacle of himself more than he already is at his massive height. So he goes for a bear kigurumi every time. But that won’t stop him from gushing over the cute little costumes he has his wee ones in. :3 I’m just statin’ facts

I like to think that Eddie’s costumes don’t necessarily chase the pop culture zeitgeist but are more about his personal fixations; mythological characters, obscure film characters, pun projects (for example, he has his wife don a flower crown and peasant dress and carry a bottle of wine and drape a towel over her arm to be a “Midsommelier”), and the like! 

Plus, it’s way more fun to have his partner or friends in on the joke! One year, Eddie went as Mr. Rogers and all his friends as assorted citizens of the titular Neighborhood, another he took it upon himself to make costumes so that four of them could go as The Talking Heads (he wanted to be David Byrne so badly); another year, once in a relationship, he procured costumes for himself and his girlfriend to go as Vinz Clortho (Lewis Tully) and Zuul (Dana Barrett) from the original Ghostbusters, elated to have an opportunity to run around unhinged and recite his favorite lines, like “During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!”

His girlfriend mostly just enjoyed the swishy orange dress.

Once he and the missus get together and get married and have their children, Eddie goes above and beyond for Halloween, insistent that even if he and his wife don’t dress up (which would never happen, obviously), they have to dress up the babies. It’s just too cute to pass up the chance at!

In a surprisingly dark move, Eddie sews a hoodied onesie for the baby so that they appear to be wearing the same little suit and burlap sack as Sam from Trick ‘r Treat (Eddie tries to justify it with Sam not being inherently evil and mostly just a pretty cute little kid out for trick or treat when his wife complains that dressing their baby up as a demonic Halloween spirit might be distasteful), and it’s surprisingly well-made and warm, keeping baby nice and cozy as Momma and Dada go about their autumnal activities. (Eddie decided that to match baby, they all had to go as various horror movie ‘monsters’/fright-makers; the missus was the Bride of Frankenstein, and Eddie wanted to go as the Babadook before his wife talked him down to the more normal-passing Norman Bates, concerned that the amount of makeup necessary to pull off a Babadook look would upset the baby too much.)

For  Eddie, Halloween is such a fun time-- rife with history and mysticism, spiritual oddness and social kookiness, and aesthetic wonderment alike run rampant during those weeks leading up to the All Hallow’s Eve-- and he just can’t let go of the chance to indulge in some once-a-year merriment, especially when it can involve his friends and loved ones (and his peculiar interests).

For David, however, Halloween is more down to earth. David is deeply discomforted by scary stories, gory decorations, slasher movies, jump scares, etc; the spookery of the season and its axis around death makes him more than a little uneasy, at times, so he prefers a more “Great Pumpkin” kind of Halloween than a, say, “Friday The 13th” Halloween.

He likes to decorate the house with sweetly carved jack o’lanterns (recently having discovered that there are plastic and foam pumpkins he can carve and keep throughout the years and that carve like his more familiar medium of wood, David tends to prefer the synthetic gourds for house decor and organic ones for the outdoors), putting up string lights and smiling sheet ghosts. 

He’s the Local Dad that will sit on his porch all night in a warm, comfy costume-- David, ever the pragmatist, decided many years ago that he either goes as Paul Bunyan (for warmer Halloweens) or a teddy bear (using the bear kigurumi for colder evenings), and never falters to employ those costumes-- and hand out candy, smiling at every trick-or-treater without fail. 

His favorite trick-or-treaters are always the babies; he knows they can’t eat candy, but watching parents walk up to the house with a wee little bundle in their arms, peeking out of a princess dress or pumpkin suit, well, it just melts his heart every single time, and he will often stick out a finger and try to boop the baby on the toes to say a wordless “hello”!

But the very, beary best costumed kiddos are always his own.

David’s little ones get to go as anything they like, so long as the costume isn’t excessively horrifying or unsafe (i.e. nothing sharp, nothing that would let them catch a chill, nothing gory), and David’s children often pick more unusual costumes, so that never seems to be an issue for them. 

One year, one of his sons desperately wanted to be a chicken (reasons unclear); another, his daughter wanted to be Santa (”For Halloween, sweetie?” “Yes, please.”); many times, David has dressed the wee-est baby up as Babe, the blue ox that accompanies Paul Bunyan in many of his tales. 

David also likes to see what his wife chooses to dress up as; she likes to pick comfortable costumes, as well, since she is usually the parent that walks with the little ones to take them trick-or-treating (as she is the parent most comfortable talking to strangers). Her costumes are usually built around a sensible pair of walking shoes and a warm jacket, and David always finds them adorable. He was especially fond of the year when she was a few months pregnant and went as Winnie the Pooh, citing the baby bump as her “rumbly tumbly”. 

Each boy has their own Halloween traditions and comfort zones, but I like to think both of them have an equally wonderful time on the holiday, in their own special ways!

Day 11 & Day 12, Wearing Kigurumis & Making Out

Yesterday I felt like shit and couldn’t find enough power in me to write, so today I wrote one fic with two themes. Percy liked wearing his skeleton kigurumi. He only bought it because Rachel was in an anime-phase and when she bought one for herself, she made him buy one for himself as well. But after trying out, he fell in love with the black and white onesie. It was comfortable, warm, and soft against his skin. It was big enough to move in it without tripping over his own feet, and he liked to snuggle in it. Also, it reminded him of Nico because of the skeleton print, so that was also a positive aspect of the kigurumi.

He felt cute in it. When he wore it, he didn’t have to be the great hero, the leader of the camp, the protective fighter, or the almost adult, he could be just himself. He had never been just a kid, he didn’t have a real childhood, but in the adult onesie, he could pretend that he was just a normal guy, who had only two problems in his life: trying to find out which university to go and figuring out how to get the boy.

After the war, he finally had time to figure out himself. He talked to his mother, to Paul, to Annabeth, even to Will, the only gay guy he knew, and came out to them as a pansexual. They were very supportive, Annabeth even offered him her help getting himself a boy- or girlfriend, but he declined. He knew who he wanted, but now he also knew he couldn’t have him without changing who he was. But he wanted Nico. Oh, how much he wanted him!

But alas, even is Nico came out as gay, Percy wasn’t his type, so the only mature thing he could do after that revelation was stealing the Hermes cabin’s secret stash of chocolate ice cream, dressing up in his kigurumi and snuggling into a pillow-fort in the solitude of his cabin. He took the tub in his lap and dug his spoon into it.

If he had to wallow in self-pity because he was dumped before he could confess his love to Nico, the least thing he could do is eating ice cream. Well, it would have been better if it was blue ice cream, or his mother’s blue chocolate chip cookies, but at least it was the good, pricey stuff, so this would do.

He was lost in thought, so he didn’t hear the knock on his door, but when he felt an intruder in his cabin, he immediately picked up Riptide. He took off the cap before he realized that it wasn’t a monster or an irritating god, but the cause of his current state.

“What are you doing here?” Percy asked with a sullen voice and ate another spoonful of ice cream. The son of Hades just stood there like he was rooted there and blinked surprised at the strange sight. It is not an everyday sight that the son of Poseidon huddle in a pillow fort in a black onesie while eating ice cream like no tomorrow. “I asked something!”

At Percy’s second sentence he came out of his stupor and answered. “You weren’t at dinner and you also missed the campfire and I was… I wanted to make sure you’re okay.”

“As you can see, I’m perfectly fine, so you can go”, said Percy pouting. “…and be with your type, who is not me”, added almost inaudibly, but not quiet enough for Nico not to hear it.

“What?” asked dumfounded and slowly walked closer to the pillow fort. Percy looked like a deer in headlights – he didn’t want Nico to know how much he hurt him. “What do you mean?” Nico crouched in front of Percy and waited for the answer. He couldn’t let himself to hope, because if Percy didn’t mean that way he thought, he’d be crushed even more. But if he did…

“I said you should be with that type of yours and let me wallow in self-pity alone”, said Percy defiantly. He snuggled more into his kigurumi, the only visible part of him was his sad but sullen green eyes.

“And why are you wallowing?” asked Nico tentatively. It was a bad question to ask. Percy straightened himself and his gaze was like the stormiest ocean.

“Because someone broke my heart before I could confess to him”, his voice was strong and deceptively calm but Nico could feel the threatening water in the air. He should have felt afraid, but the only thing he could feel was relief, hope, and love.

“You… you wanted to confess me? You like me?” asked hopefully, with a small smile on his face. Percy assumed it was because Nico thought the notion was so ridiculous he laughed at him, so he looked away from Nico to hide the tears gathering in his eyes.

“Fuck you”, whispered the son of Poseidon.

“Wait! I wasn’t making fun of you! I promise! I just… I’m happy. I lied before – when I said that you are not my type. You are. You are the only one for me. You were always the one for me”, explained Nico hurriedly. Percy tore his eyes away from the wall and looked at Nico. He shook his head disbelievingly but he could see the truth in the boy’s eyes. He loved Percy.

Percy dropped the long-forgotten spoon from his hand and grabbed Nico’s shirt to pull him close. “You are an idiot!” said with conviction but his actions contradicted his words. Before Nico could say anything, he crushed his lips tightly against Nico’s. The boy’s lips were cold and unmoving, but everything Percy ever wanted. After a few moments of bewilderment, Nico came to the conclusion that yes, his first and only love is kissing him, he closed his eyes and returned the kiss with enthusiasm. “You are lucky that even so, I like you.”

Now it was Nico’s turn pulling Percy closer, one arm wrapping around his waist, the other sliding to his cheek. The kiss was not like the previous one; Percy’s mouth opened under Nico’s as if giving permission to take whatever Nico wanted. Everything was perfect – the way their lips touched, the smell of their combined scents, Nico’s hand in Percy’s hair, his mouth on his jaw, moving down his throat.

At the feeling of Nico’s mouth on his throat, he hummed softly with approval, and when Nico bit the sensitive area, he let out a pleasure-filled moan. Percy brought his hand to Nico’s dark curls and pulled at them to make Nico come up to another passionate kiss. Percy let Nico lead the kiss, his tongue roaming in the green-eyed boy’s mouth and brushing against his teeth. The kiss was hot and wet and dirty. Percy smiled into the kiss, and they broke it to look at each other. Their gaze was filled with love and want – they needed more of the other. So, they closed their eyes again to resume the kiss. Nico wanted all of Percy. He wanted him before, but now that he could taste him and feel his body against his, he wanted more. Every gasp, every hitch of breath, and every moan. He wanted to taste every inch of his skin, to feel the other boy’s naked body pressed against his own.

The only obstacle was that damned onesie. He grunted disappointed when he couldn’t disrobe Percy, who tore away from Nico laughing.

“Hold your horses, we have all the time in the world”, said Percy to the pouting son of Hades with mirth in his eyes.

“I can’t help it. You are so irresistible and now that you are mine, I can’t get enough of you.” At Nico’s words, Percy’s face reddened but looked very, very pleased. He felt the same way, so he leaned to steal another kiss – not the last time that night.
