╰┈─➤ ＢＥＧＩＮＮＩＮＧ

The soft sound of feet patter against the ground shook a woman awake as she saw her sun run up to her. Her son huffed, face stained with tears as he waited for her to say something. She only sighed as she got out of bed and guided him to the mirror on the small table.

She gently forced him down to a kneel, with her joining as well to be height level with his face. The boy stared straight at the mirror as his mother cleaned up his bruises, taking out any twigs in his hair as well.

This wasn’t the first time this happened. It always happened whenever the boy went out. Whenever he tried to gain his father’s approval.

“I’m pathetic compared to my siblings!” He suddenly blurted out as his mother cleaned up a slit in his lip.

She glared at him. “How can you say that about yourself?”

“He seems to think so! I don’t matter to him. I don’t matter to anyone!”

“You do matter, (Name). Emperor Chu is a very busy man. An important man. Emperor Chu gives you a life many other children dream of. Appreciate it.”

“Papa doesn’t care for me.”

“(Name). You know you must call the emperor by his title.”

“Why? I can call you mama.”

(Name)’s mother sighed as she gently pulled his hair out of the ponytail, allowing it to stay out. She continued to fix his hanfu, making sure it fit his more frail body. He had always been sick. He knew that. The hanfu felt a bit big on him. His sickness only caused him to be stunted in growth compared to other boys.

The shoulders of the hanfu had to be bunched up to not fall off. But his sickness was no shock.

How could it be when his mother herself was known to be weak as a child. She couldn’t play like the other children. Confined to her room as she coughed up blood. It was a miracle she lived so long, even having a baby boy. But it only meant he received her illness.

“Emperor Chu loves you. It may not show but Emperor Chu doesn’t have favorites—loving all of you equally, like a emperor must.”

“But he doesn’t love you equally like his wife.”

“Please, (Name), do not refer to His royal highness so casually. If you get tired of saying Emperor Chu so much, call him by his other titles. I want you to be safe.”

“He’s my Papa.”

“He’s an Emperor first. My Baobei, please, for me.” Her dark hair framed her pale skin beautifully. It was no wonder Emperor Chu chose her as a consort. Such a beautiful woman could only belong to a powerful man. (Name) didn’t understand this well at the age of ten but he knew deep down that his mother wasn’t as lucky as the maids thought she was.

(Name) simply nodded. “Sorry.”

“I’m sorry, it’s important to practice formal speech, Baobei.”

(Name) simply nodded. He didn’t like his life at all. Staying indoors. Being forced to watch his siblings be doted on by his father while he only sends a maid to give him gifts. It wasn’t like the illness was contagious. Many people came near him or touched him and nothing happened to them months later.

This silly illness. It was ruining his life.

ꕥ

“Seventh Prince! Consort Yuying has requested you. Please, get him dress.” A guard said outside his door. The maid in (Name)’s room, Xiulan, got up from her seat on the floor and began to pull out his clothes.

(Name) sat up from his bed, glancing out at the opened doors to the mini courtyard that belonged to him and his mother. Consorts usually got their own sections of the palace. Since his mother was the ninth consort, many expected she’d get the leftovers but her being the prettiest, they had earned the more fancied one. The first consort was the emperor’s wife.

So she wasn’t even truly a consort anymore. She was an empress.

Xiulan motioned for him to get up as she removed his sleepwear, slipping on his hanfu and shoes. He bent down a little for the short woman to pull his long hair up into a bun. No one ever cut their hair. It was the hair from their parents. They shouldn’t disrespect it. Shaving was mostly fine. But (Name) didn’t grow much on his face.

His illness, is what his doctor had said.

“Seventh Prince is ready.” Xiulan stated as she opened the sliding door on their right. The guard there simply nodded and bowed in respect to (Name). The lower class referred to any child of the emperor in terms of when they were born.

(Name) was the seventh son, so he was named the Seventh Prince. He was also the last child. The youngest. It didn’t help that he was also terribly sick most of his nights so almost everyone babied him to an annoying degree.

When he was younger, it bothered him but now, as he felt weaker by the day, it made sense. He could hardly walk far without needing to stop.

He was weak. He needed every ounce of protection they gave him. But he was only sixteen.

His mother…

She wasn’t doing good.

The room she was in was close to the Emperor. It was so he could visit her with ease. She was bedridden most of the time, asleep as her health deteriorated. (Name) didn’t visit her much. He knew it wasn’t good to do such a thing to do her.

She needed to see her only son but he was scared.

To be confronted with the reality that she’s dying.

That he’s dying, too.

“She’s inside, Seventh Prince. I’ll be waiting here.” The guard said, holding his staff close to him. (Name) nodded as he walked inside the room, for the first time in maybe months.

There was his mother, her hair thinning. It was no longer shiny and thick. It was almost breaking off. Her normally beautiful sharp cheek bones looked scary with her skinnier face. She was dying.

(Name) pushed through any sight of distress and walked over to kneel down beside her body. The maids in the room made sure to give a bit of space for him, but hovered around just in case her health took a turn for the worst.

“Baobei…” Yuying sighed, tears streaming down her face. She reached one frail hand up to touch his face, cupping his chubby cheek. A small laugh left her lips. She had missed this. His cute cheeks that puffed out whenever he pouted or stuffed his mouth.

Pouty lips that were turning too pale for her liking. Yuying grunted as she moved to sit up, much to the maid’s dismay. (Name) tried to make her stay down but she somehow pushed him off. Whatever strength she had was still there. She was supposed to be only thirty-five but she looked fifty.

“Baobei, I failed you.”

“No. No. Mama, I failed you. I got so scared to see you. I didn’t want to see you like this but that was so selfish of me. Please, forgive me.” He cried, leaning his head on her shoulder.

Yuying reached a hand into his hair and pulled out his bun, allowing his long black hair to fall out. (Name) pulled away and looked at her in confusion. He watched as she played around with it, a smile on her lips.

“I missed your hair. It was healthier than mines.”

“Mama…”

“Baobei, I don’t have much time left. They’re taking so much from me and I couldn’t stop them. What I have…” Yuying coughed, blood splattered on (Name)’s face but he was too shocked to react.

“No, the doctor said you had a few years left. Please, please. Don’t…”

“Baobei, listen to me. This isn’t a normal Illness. We aren’t sick.”

“What are you talking about Mama?”

Yuying glanced around, as if she was scared someone was watching.

“I’ve called a shaman to help you. He’s been here the entire time, watching you. He told me he’s ready for the attack.”

“Mama, you’re not making sense. Let’s lay down…”

“Baobei!” She yelled, a look of anger in her eyes. “Once I lay down I’m gone. Let me tell you this so you don’t face this fate. My mother came from the Xians. It gave me the ability to see the future with eternal beauty. This caught the attention of many Wangliang.”

“Wangliang…? But they don’t exist. Xians aren’t real. No one could be immortal.”

“Xians don’t just have immortality. But this doesn’t matter, what matters is that your illness is because a Wangliang is feeding off of you like a parasite. And it’s not just one. It’s why you have been getting weaker much faster than I did when I was younger.”

(Name) felt dizzy. He didn’t understand. His mother seemed to know from his face as she sighed.

“Baobei… I have a notebook that’s tucked somewhere in your room. Find it, it’ll give you more insight. But just know, your ability is something stronger than mines. Mines could only grant me ten seconds into the future. Your ability, it seems to deal with your heart.”

“Mama…. Why are you speaking as if today is your last..?”

“It is, Baobei. It’s too late to save me.���

“No. No! This shaman you spoke of, why can’t he save you?!” (Name) yelled, gripping at his mother’s hanfu. She simply smiled at him, cradling his face as she leaned in to press a soft kiss on his forehead.

“There’s only so much you can do for someone as old and frail as me. I used my ability for wrong reasons. I deserve my fate.” She pushed back a lock of hair to place behind his ear. “I’m blessed to say my goodbyes.”

Yuying moved to lay back down on her bed as she smiled up at her son. “I love you, Baobei.”

Then her eyes were closed.

(Name) screamed out as he shook his mother, hoping she would awaken. The maids in the room called out for the doctor, one trying to pull (Name) away from his mother’s corpse but was swiftly pushed away. He cried out in pain, a cry that was never heard from the boy ever in his life.

“Mama! Mama, please!” He chanted, rocking her body back and forth. People rushed into the room but (Name) couldn’t lay them any mind. His mother was gone. His mother, his only true parent was gone.

He was all alone.

Strong arms gripped him tightly and pulled him away from the body, easily subduing him. (Name) weakly fought against the man’s hold but could only whimper out for his mother to wake up. The one day.

The one day he went to see her and she was gone.

The man holding (Name) ended up being Emperor Chu and the Eldest Prince, Laohu who took over once his father had to check the body. (Name) cried in his brother’s arm, holding him close. Despite them having different mothers, they were close.

His twelve siblings all loved him well. Emperor Chu had seven boys and five girls. A good luck that many praised him for. Laohu was much older than most of the siblings. Close to his late twenties by now. He acted as (Name)’s father at this point as Emperor Chu couldn’t bother to be one.

“Ge… Ge!!” (Name) cried, wishing he had died with his mother. He couldn’t continue like this. Not without his rock.

“Di, can you stand?” Laohu muttered.

(Name) didn’t answer. Laohu nodded towards one his other brothers, the Sixth Prince, and motioned for him to help carry him to his room. Sixth Prince, Donghai, helped Laohu carry their younger brother to his room.

The death of a consort, no matter how little she mattered to the emperor, was a devastating loss. Everything stopped as they were allowed to mourn. And it was warranted for Yuying. She wasn’t just a consort.

She was someone to the lower class people before Emperor Chu found her.

She was a light of hope in their dark days.

And now she was gone.

(Name) was never the same after. And neither was his family.

ꕥ

“Di, please, you’ve been through here a thousands times before. You should’ve found it by now if it was truly here,” Donghai said, watching as (Name) once again turned every pillow and blanket to find the notebook his mother had once mentioned.

(Name) glanced at his brother, “Ge, you don’t understand! She said it’d be here for me. She mentioned a shaman!”

“Shamans aren’t people you should trust, Di. Please, you’re already getting more frail,” Donghai grasped his brother’s hand, (Name)’s thin hands looked small against his.

(Name) knew everyone was anxious for him. His mother died earlier than the doctor had estimated. Everyone walked on eggshells, hoping to not awaken to the news that they lost him too. It had been only three years, (Name) was nineteen. But it still felt like yesterday some days.

Donghai was the one worried the most. He was the sixth son but eleventh child. They were only two years apart in age. He had a relationship to (Name) that the other brothers didn’t have.

Laohu and Donghai had a love for him that rivaled his mother sometimes.

The other four brothers didn’t speak much to (Name) but the rare times they did, they cared deeply for him. But they focused more on their positions in the military. Two were twins and one shared the same mother as Laohu. Only four years younger than him. The last one, the Second Prince shared a mother with the Eldest Princess.

She was the first child. But she was never home, having married off to a man in a neighboring state. But whenever Laohu visited, he always told (Name) she was happy.

“I will be fine… but thank you for worrying.” (Name) smiled.

Donghai didn’t looked convinced but nodded.

“Sixth Prince! Emperor Chu has requested you to the throne room!”

“I will see you at dinner.”

“Bye, Ge.”

(Name) waited for Donghai to leave before he continued his search for his mother’s notebook. He wished she had told him where. But all he had to go with is that it should’ve be hidden that no maid could come across it while cleaning.

Xiulan wasn’t going to enjoy having to clean his room after this mess he was making. But he couldn’t worry about that. His mother came first.

He was feeling weaker by the minute and if this notebook could save him, he’d find it. The sliding door open, pausing his search as he looked over to see Consort Yue Lin. She was Laohu’s mother.

(Name) quickly bowed, showing respect to her. The second consort. She was very important to the emperor behind his wife. Many wondered if it was because his wife only gave him a daughter with no sons. It certainly made her seem pathetic in terms of Consort Yue Lin.

“(Name), if I may call you that, how are you feeling?” Yue Lin kneeled down next to (Name), her brown hair pulled into an intricate braid with flower pins holding them place. She certainly dressed as a queen.

“I have had better days, Consort Yue Lin.”

“I lost my mother quite young as well. Not as tragic as you but I know your pain. Laohu loves you. Very much. I think he loves you more than me,” she laughed. “Know that he is someone to talk to. He has reached his thirties. He’s wise. A… a father figure.”

(Name) was shocked that Yue Lin acknowledge the poor parenting skills of an emperor. But she want wrong. Laohu was a father to him. Not Emperor Chu.

“The Shaman…”

(Name) stared at her in fear.

She simply grinned. “I saw him once. He’s hidden himself as a knight very well. But he’s around here. He’s one of the knights that guards the entrance to the gate leading to the forest. However, if anyone told you, I never knew.”

“Yes, of course!”

“As for the notebook, floor.”

“Floor…?”

“Floor.” With a curt nod, she rose up and walked out of the room, subtly pointing at a spot near the closet. The door closed behind her as (Name) rushed over the the closet door and felt around on the ground.

He gasped when one felt loose. With ease, he pulled off one of the floor board to see the notebook underneath. He quickly grabbed it and placed the board back into its spot.

He’d give an excuse to why one of the floor boards were broken. What mattered now was that he got what he had been looking for.

The notebook was mainly a diary. Laying down a timeline of Yuying’s time before she was found at age eighteen by Emperor Chu to become his last consort. By the next year, she was pregnant with him.

She was happy. Stating how much Emperor Chu loved her despite him being near 40s when he impregnated her. It didn’t shock (Name). He knew his father was creepy when choosing the woman he wanted. Past emperors choose their women the first year he was given the title. But Emperor Chu waited.

He waited for each beautiful woman to be ready for marriage and to bear children.

It give him twelve so many didn’t go against him, even if they wondered what he could’ve truly had in common with such a young bride.

“Baobei.”

That voice.

(Name) closed the notebook, right was he was about to reach his mother’s words on the so called ‘Wangliang’. He placed the notebook on the ground and followed the sound of his mother into the forest near his courtyard. (Name) struggled to jump over the fence but was finally able to when something grabbed him.

His head was hurting but his mother’s voice took over. Calling to him. The snow crunched beneath his bare feet as he walked over to wherever his mother was. He could feel eyes on him. Watching him as he walked to his death.

Grief was a powerful thing.

It clouded one’s judgement. They couldn’t think straight.

The trance he was in was gone once he reached the middle of the forest, dressed in a light hanfu, not made for the cold weather. He wrapped his arms around himself as he looked around. The night sky made the usually calm forest seem scary.

Only the moonlight was his light. It shined down on him, as if mocking him for being so foolish. The crunching of snow near him shock him as he turned around erratically, looking to see who was coming close to him.

“Baobei… come to mama.”

(Name) watched in horror as something tall and imposing walked from it’s hiding spot. It was lankey and tall, long limbs that no human could ever have. A white face with dark black eyes, a large sinister smile. Blood was coated on it’s lip as it bent down slightly to level itself with (Name).

“Baobei.” It said in his mother’s voice.

(Name) felt his knees collapse beneath him. He dropped to the floor, staring up at the unknown beast. This was a Wangliang…? It began to laugh, in a voice that belonged to a multitude of people.

It’s jaw unhinged as a long tongue slithered out, reaching over to caress (Name)’s face. He felt himself blank at the gross tongue touching him. Was this how he died?

Donghai… Laohu…

His mother.

He didn’t even get to see the shaman.

(Name) closed his eyes tightly as the Wangliang’s tongue tightened around his throat, leaning down with it’s wide jaw to swallow him whole when a shriek was heard.

The Wangliang cried out with it’s tongue but clean off. Black blood splattered across (Name)’s face, sending him into a quick shocking memory of his mother doing the same on her death bed. He could only stay still on the floor as whoever it was, killed the beast in front of him.

It was dressed in his people’s knight uniform. He swung around a Guandao with ease. A long staff with a sharp curved blade at the end. The Wangliang screamed as it tried to fight back only to easily be killed with a slice at it’s neck.

The head fell down not too far away from (Name) as black blood sprayed out of the corpse, covering the knight’s face and body. But he didn’t seem phased. He only wiped it away with his hanfu and muttered a quick prayer before sprinting over to (Name).

“Seventh Prince! Apologies for being late. I did not notice when you left.”

The knight kneeled down to grab (Name) only for (Name) to jump into his arms. He paused for a moment, wondering if there was something wrong only to see that (Name)’s body trembled in his arms.

“Are you… Are you the shaman Mama was speaking about?”

“Yes. Consort Yuying paid me to protect you. If she caught the Jiangshi before it fully killed you, she thought you will survive. But it isn’t just the jiangshi killing you.”

“I don’t understand.”

The shaman simply hummed. “I do not expect you to understand, Seventh Prince. You do not need to worry much about what is happening. What matters is that you trust me,” he wrapped one arm around (Name)’s waist.

(Name) pulled away from his neck and stared at him, wanting to get a good look at who this man was. His long hair was pulled into a ponytail, giving a clear look at his facial features. Monolids with medium size lips. A prominent nose that was actually beautiful to (Name).

He knew others would possibly view the man as ugly but he couldn’t help the flutter in his heart.

“Do you trust me?” The man asked.

“Your name?”

“… Fa Yichen.”

“That doesn’t seem like you’re real name.”

“It is not. But when you prove yourself to me, I will tell you,” Yichen said, a faint smile on his lips. It looked off for someone to be smiling while their face was splotches of blood but (Name) supposed it wasn’t human blood.

“I’ll call you Ge.”

“I do not deserve such title. Call me Yichen.”

(Name) pouted but nodded. Yichen stood up, holding (Name) in his arms with ease. The man was tall, having to possibly be 6’4 or maybe even 6’6. (Name) wasn’t sure. All he knew for sure was that Yichen had an intimidating stature.

Muscular all around. He put (Name)’s military brothers to shame. (Name) wrapped his arms around his neck, allowing him to carry him back to the palace. His feet were dirty with snow. But he couldn’t feel it well due to the cold.

He just wanted to warm up.

Once they reached (Name)’s room, Yichen placed him down on the bed and immediately went to leave.

“Ge!”

Yichen turned back to face him, “Yichen. I do not deserve such a kind title.”

(Name) grinned. “Sorry, I will not do it again.”

He will do it again.

“Is there anything you need? I can call Miss Xiulan to come clean you.”

“I want you to. We can get to know each other!”

“No.”

“Please!”

“I’m sorry.”

“How can I trust you if you won’t do a simple task?”

Yichen’s eyebrows twitched in annoyance before grunting. “I’ll start the bath.”

(Name) smirked to himself. Perhaps he could get Yichen into the bath with him. Hey, it might been a bit weird to try and get some random man into a bath with him but he wasn’t exactly thinking.

His first time alone with a very beautiful man.

“Seventh Prince, the bath is ready.”

(Name) walked over to the connected bathroom and began to strip out of his dirty clothes. He wasn’t sure how he could explain the blood on them. Maybe that it was paint.

His clothes pooled on the floor around his feet as he glanced over to see if Yichen was watching him. The shaman was looking away with a light blush on his cheeks. (Name) grinned. He wasn’t exactly doing anything with that.

He was just used to being naked in front of maybe people so he forgot not everyone would be comfortable with it. “Apologies. I was raised to not be bothered by nudity.”

“It is no issue. I’ll leave you to your bath.”

“No!”

Yichen stopped himself from leaving.

“Can you wash me? Xiulan does most of the work, I cannot suddenly do it alone.” (Name) said, walking over to the bath as he slipped in.

Once Yichen counted to ten in his head, he turned around to see (Name) fully covered by the water. (Name) grinned as he watched Yichen fumble around looking for the soap. It was different from Xiulan who moved with grace, sliding the soap all over him with ease and the muscle memory.

Yichen was slow. As if he was scared that if he went too fast, he’d tear (Name) apart. It wasn’t an unfounded fear. (Name) was small in every way compared to Yichen. Especially with their sizes.

Yichen’s hand almost covered (Name)’s entire back. And the brief moment they stood close together, (Name)’s head only reached his shoulder. But it was honestly the perfect height for him to just rest his head there if they hugged.

“Ge…”

“Yichen.”

“Why was my mother too far gone?”

“Consort Yuying had been losing her life force to the Jiangshi since birth. They went after her due to her soul being more powerful than any ordinary human.” Yichen reached down to trace (Name)’s chest, the area where his heart was.

“Jiangshi loves souls. The more powerful, the more they want it. It is more of an unfortunate situation that her parents did not know of the Wangliangs that roam the earth.”

“If they had know…”

“Consort Yuying could have lived a fruitful life. But that is the past, we cannot change what has been done. I promised your mother that she could pass with me caring for you.”

“Yes. I’m sorry. I just wish I knew…”

“She was fearful that she’d scare you. That it would have sent you straight into a Jiangshi’s awaiting mouth.”

(Name) hummed as he leaned back into the touch of Yichen. Yichen’s hand that held the rag roamed his body, not touching his legs or anything lower than his stomach. (Name) bit his lip, reaching up to grasp the hand resting on the tub.

Yichen hesitated for a moment before continuing, “do you want to wash your hair?”

“Another time. It’s a process.”

(Name) glanced down at his body, blushing at his hard nipples. Yichen seemed to not notice, really focused on bathing (Name) as if it was his job. It was a bit of a disappointment from his dream but he knew he had a weird imagination.

“Seventh Prince…”

“Yes?”

“I must tell you, sex is heavily influenced in your mother’s kind. The Xians.”

“Those immortal humans?”

“The original Xians were immortal, yes. But your mother’s family was a more muted version of them. You don’t live forever. But to awaken the power at first, a connection to the body is needed.”

“A connection?”

“Please, tell me whenever you are uncomfortable.”

“Yichen?”

A gasp left (Name)’s lips when he felt a tug at his nipples. He arched his back, his head resting on Yichen’s shoulder as he pulled at both nipples. Yichen’s much larger hands cupped his chest entirely. It sent a shiver down his spine.

How could he hands look against other parts of his body…?

“Stimulation is a great way to connect to one’s body. It is the fastest way other than meditation. Next time we can do meditation.”

(Name) did not want to do medication next time.

Yichen’s fingers rolled (Name)’s nipples around, watching every reaction the Prince gave him. In any other circumstance, he would’ve told his client to do it themself.

But he knew (Name). Ever since they were babies.

And he wouldn’t lie that he was physically attracted to him. There was no way he’d get another chance like this. (Name)’s soft whimpering filled in the room as one of Yichen’s hand moved downwards to grip his ass.

The squeak (Name) released, one that reminded him of a cute hamster, was music to Yichen’s ears. Yichen probed at (Name)’s hole, enjoying the sounds from (Name)’s lips.

“I’ll need to take you out of the bath so I can properly stimulate you.”

“Please…”

Yichen easily picked up (Name) and held him close as walked over to the bedroom. He checked to make sure the sliding doors were closed from the courtyard so no cool air came in. With that, he laid down on the floor, keeping (Name) on top of him.

“Relax and let me take care of everything,” Yichen pulled him up to bring his asshole near his lips. It was eye opening to feel something foreign touch his ass.

(Name) gripped at the floor beneath him as he cried out in pleasure as Yichen thrusted his tongue inside. He was shocked at the fact something could fit inside of him. Yichen’s grip on his thighs were tight, holding him close to his body as he explored his asshole.

He felt close. His cock twitching, ready to release. (Name) flinched when he felt something probe at his asshole, a finger this time. He blushed, wondering how Yichen’s finger would feel deep inside. One finger slowly pushed in as he pulled his tongue away.

His one finger was thick, it felt like two. (Name)’s body twitched as he cried out, feeling the finger drag against his warm walls. He clenched around the finger before feeling himself cum. Much to his disappointment, Yichen pulled his finger out and maneuvered (Name) to lay down on his bed.

“Do you feel differently?”

“I feel tired…” (Name) sighed. “But something feels… light…”

“Good. In the morning, we will talk more.” He moved to get up.

“Ge, don’t leave…”

“I—”

“Di! Where are….”

(Name) and Yichen stared at the door showing a shocked Donghai. Donghai glanced at the wet naked body of his younger brother and the strange man’s clothing that had indents of water.

Oh, he was about to kill this man.

• There are few who are blessed by the gods, and yet the few who are end up feeling that it is more of a curse.

• That's what the reader felt from the day she was born.

• When she was concived, her mother was going through pregnancy problems, having pain and nightmares. An omen of something very bad. So they went to see a prophet.

• And what said prophet told them was that reader would be born lifeless, for lack of a heart, unless they received the blessing of the gods and gave their lives to serve them.

• These were desperate times, so desperate measures were resorted to.

• The reader's parents ended up worshiping the god Apollo, hoping that the vain god of medicine would take pity on their misfortune and give them a kind of saving grace for their daughter.

• Fortunately, Apollo likes adorable things, and it would be a shame if such creature, of one of his followers, died while HE of all the gods were present, right?

• This was how the reader's life was saved, however, this ended up as a double-edged sword.

• reader grew up to be a charming and beautiful maiden, very devoted to the god who had saved her life and willing to help in the care of the temple.

• Thanks to this she received certain privileges, such as having access to the temple's literature, being able to go out on her own, etc.

• It was a simple, but cozy existence.

• Of course...not counting Apollo's annoying followers.

• There were certain boys who simply LOVED imitating the god's nastier aspects, and they took it out especially on her. Whether breaking her things, cornering her, insulting her.

• Everything got worse when they discovered Apolo's preferential treatment towards the girl, increasing the attacks to physical violence. Leaving bruises, cuts...

• There were those who were more discreet, trying to make her feel safe and then trying to abuse her trust.

• They even had the GUTS to ask permission to try to court her, another way to haunt her, but fortunately their parents refused when they saw how horrible they were. Unfortunately only made the harassment increase.

• And there really wasn't much she could do, reader knew, even if these boys made her life miserable, she had nowhere else to go.

• However, the reader was very curious to know what was outside of temple life. What kind of people would there be?

• So she take advantage of her privileges to explore a little, nothing serious, just go pick some wildflowers.

• However, what she did not expect was that the boys followed her to those places...

• Reader ran away, she was afraid that now that there wasn't a soul around, the boys would do things they wouldn't normally do, that would hurt her even more or worse. So she ran and ran…

• And then she saw it, a crack in the ground, big enough to climb into, but not for big men. It was a good hiding place.

• she got in quickly, however, when she thought she was completely in, she felt as if she had fallen into a tunnel. She felt like he was falling.

• And in less time than she realized, she hit the ground, leaving everything blurry... and dark...

• When the servants told Hades that they had found something “unusual” he definitely did not expect a beaten, unconscious maiden that appeared out of NOWHERE. Although of course, the cracks that lead to the underworld are one thing, but you have to have TERRIBLE luck to fall into one...

• At least the maiden was lucky that the servants find her and inform him about the situation and that one of the other monsters of Helhaim. That would definitely have been unfortunate for someone so young...

• Hades was genuinely stumped on what to do at first, yes, he could just return the mortal, but from the clothing (and bruised appearance) he could tell that 1- it came from the cult-ahem temple of Apollo and 2- it wasn't necessarily a pleasant stay. It was a runaway.

• Ultimately he would return it when she wakes up. Thats it.

• Reader woke up with the biggest headache of her life, pain in her body, and the strangest thing of all, in a comfortable place...

• Although that feeling of comfort quickly went out the window when she saw a demon depositing something next to her bed, letting out an ear-piercing scream (and scaring the shit out of the demon too?)

• Ah, it seems that the guest is awake, what a relief. It's been a long time since Hades dealt with living humans, so he was afraid she wouldn't wake up, what a relief indeed!

• Well, it seems that the guest was not as relieved as he…

• Hades had to ask the servant to leave so that the mortal could calm down, he politely excused himself and sat next to the bed, introducing himself.

• Reader was obviously scared thinking that 1- she could have offended the god of death and 2- that she could have died. Fortunately it was corrected before having a heart attack.

• Hades assured her that when she felt better she would be returned to the temple of Apollo as if nothing had happened--

• Even the reader was sorprised by how quickly she cut him off shouting NO.

• She didn't want to come back, not now, everything would be worse if she came back now, they've already hurt her before, but now they'll gonna hurt her bad—

• When the reader realizes that she is saying all this to a GOD, she is quick to hang her head and apologize in shame. Even if Hades tells her not to worry about it.

• Honestly, Hades is intrigued by this situation. It is rare that a human would prefer to be in the very underworld than on the surface. So why not unpack the issue a bit?

• Hades proposes a deal to the reader, that she can stay for a while as long as she is useful. And reader, without many options, accepts.

• Hades sincerely thoug that the girl would be hanging around for a few days and that she would eventually leave where she came from, it was the most logical thing.

• However, the god of the underworld was pleasantly surprised when he saw the reader trying to help with the cleaning of the castle (trying being the correct term, since she had never cleaned such a large place), and she was exhausted.

• Several days passed like this, reader taking the task of some servant and only taking breaks to eat or sleep. Even if Hades expected some interest from her, he didn't expect that level of commitment. It was a pleasant surprise.

• He also found it very entertaining, whether watching her hyper-focus with mundane tasks like sweeping or mopping, or having a hard time doing jobs that required the use of brute force (like carrying food for Cerberus).

• At least in those cases Hades offered to lend a hand, even if the girl repeatedly denied him - after all she couldn't continue if her back broke!

• There were also some more tasks related to keeping files or administrative matters, which was somewhat complicated for the maid who, although she had consumed literature, this was DEFINITELY different.

• In those moments she would turn to Hades for assistance, whether it was how something or that worked, or in general if she needed help.

• He had to admit, it was adorable to have this maiden asking questions and asking for his help instead of being scared like most mortals. In general now the god's home felt much more vivid.

• reader was used to routine, it was what kept her alive in the temple of Apollo, so she felt good about being useful. And she wanted to continue being useful to Hades! That made her feel good.

• It was no longer so much a matter of mutual benefit, it was more a matter of enjoying each other while they could.

• Going straight to the relationship, even if it's unconventional, is very sweet.

• Even if the reader is still quite naive there is nothing to fear! She has Scary Dog privilege whenever she hangs out with Hades. You'd have to be pretty stupid to try to mess with the wife of a god anyway.

• Reader can probably extend its lifespan either with Ambrosia or, in the most likely case, Icor. They would probably give it to her at their Wedding ceremony.

• Starting from that, Hades has zero tolerance for those who speak ill of the reader because of her origin. The only “exception” is Poseidon, and he still learned the hard way not to do it in front of Hades.

• It's not that Hades thinks that the reader can't handle things alone, not at all, he is simply aware of the great power imbalance that exists between her and other of his family members. That, plus her naivety, worries him.

• Although of course, it is also an aspect that he loves, the reader always finds the positive side of things even when everything is lost, she sees things with a different lens than the one he is used to, and that makes her very valuable in His life.

• he also doesn't let himself be fooled as easily as other people, Reader can have a strong character when she wants to be firm, and LOVES to see when that happens (when she hits Zeus, for example. God, what a beauty).

• Even if she puts her foot down with him, Hades can't help but take his mind off whatever they were talking about and have a blank head. It's like a switch.

• Despite being mortal, Hades takes his partner's opinions into consideration, after all they are king AND queen of Heilhaim, they have to be able to agree to rule appropriately.

• Hades is something of a heavy hand. While a reader is more the queen of the people, so to speak. Balanced in its own way.

• One of the ways Hades expresses his love is by making the reader nervous, whether by giving her cute nicknames, making more physical contact, etc. He likes to see how shy she gets. He can't help it! It's very cute!

• On that same note, Hades likes to give gifts to his partner, whether it's something she likes or has asked for or simply to see her reaction. Again, very adorable.

• Hades is not against PDA, he enjoys any show of affection from his partner. I think it would only be limited in certain political situations. But when it's all over? He'll Let the reader hug him like a koala. Heaven.

• You can bet that while Hades doesn't doubt his partner for a second, he will definitely destroy anyone who tries anything with her (or has tried, good luck Apollo worshipers).

• Reader playing with Cerberus….reader playing with Cerberus…(there is no way for Hades to stop this, he just gave up at this point and makes sure Cerby doesn't eat her. At least reader is happy).

• Overall, an odd couple in a good way.

Character Facts~!

Character Select: Christa

Someone asked me about some info on Christa in a Disc. Server so I’ll post what I stated in that server here!! Lmk if I did mistake some information as this was all off the top of my head at the time (not to mention it was like 2 AM).

Info…!

• Christa is the first cousin to Karlheinz and Richter

• She’s known for her beauty, highly revered in vampiric high society and was the epitome of beauty.

• She was known as the “White Rose” because of her incomparable appearance; docile, pure, & porcelain.

• She prided herself on her beauty and purity.

• After Karlheinz had done what he did—it made her inconsolable as she found herself to be both “dirty” and “unclean” — a direct dichotomy towards her pure and perfect stature and persona.

• This is how she developed her personality disorder as a result of the trauma she faced.

• She saw Karlheinz as an older brother—often referring to him as “Ni-sama”

• She has a hard time remembering/reconciling faces—that’s why she mistakes Subaru for Karlheinz at times.

• Her personality disorder is why she’s so frantic and shifty—causing Subaru much dismay within his childhood to tend to her “fragile nerves” and broken mind.

• It’s also how Subaru got good at anticipating her moods and walking on egg shells with emotionally troubled individuals.

• She caused immense trauma towards Subaru psychologically as in her bouts of anger and anguish—when she thought Subaru was actually Karlheinz—she’d curse/damn him and state that he was an “impure stain” and “should kill her or himself to save the world from such sin”

• Constantly saw Subaru as a mark of her own impurity—a sin.

• In her moments of “goodness” she would sometimes call Subaru “Ni-sama”—in thinking he was Karlheinz.

• Christa enjoys seeing/visiting Subaru whenever she’s in a good mood.

• She owns the silver dagger (able to kill/maim vampires) that Subaru later gives to Yui.

• She gave that dagger to Subaru for the sole reason of killing her or himself (if he was too much of a coward to kill her—she stated he should rid the world of sin by killing himself).

• Christa is the reason why Subaru has a major distrust in women and why he has immense suicidal tendencies and self-loathing.

• Christa’s marking/signature is a white rose—for the obvious of what she was known for and her liking towards the flower

• It’s why the Sakamaki garden’s are filled with white roses—because Subaru keeps and tends to it regularly as an homage to his mother.

• Christa is the only wife still alive as Subaru hasn’t been able to work up the courage to kill her—feeling too much anguish and guilt to do so.

• Christa resides in the Vampire King’s Castle in Makai (the demon world)

• This is where she’s under surveillance by Karlheinz/living with Karlheinz.

• On a night out in the garden, Christa attempted to kill Subaru before attempting to use his hands (taking away the dagger that was once in her own) to maim her.

• This would fail as Karlheinz would restrain her later on.

• Christa and Cordelia often get into arguments about who Karlheinz “truly” loves—and with Cordelia’s combative nature and Christa’s instability—it always ends in dysfunction.

• Christa and Cordelia never had a great relationship.

• Beatrix and Christa’s relationship is never stated—but we can assume that Beatrix never attempted to push any boundaries or buttons of Christa’s due to the latters’ unstable reactions.

Goodbye 2023, See you all next year!!!!

[evvieseunoia]

Yui, before Eve.

My first ever attempt at writing headcanons!!

Yui was born with a headful of curly, blonde hair

Growing up, Seiji never indulged in expensive clothes or toys for Yui, in an attempt to teach her the downfall of materialism

For her second birthday, an older lady from the church gifted Yui a small, brown, stuffed rabbit.

She tied ribbons around its neck for each holiday and insisted Seiji make it a plate at every meal.

Yui treasured the little rabbit until the day it was torn seam to seam by alley dogs.

Yui was homeschooled by two nuns in the upper room of the church.

When she finished her homework, they braided her hair with ribbons and lace. Every now and then, they would try more intricate styles. Yui tried for weeks to replicate them, but she never learned how.

Along with her core subject, Yui was taught Scripture and home economics.

By eight, Seiji made Yui in charge of all laundry and cleaning for their house to, “teach her the ways of a wife.”

She wasn’t allowed many sweets as a child- as the church could not promote childhood gluttony- but every year, on her birthday, she enjoyed splitting a slice of layered vanilla crepe cake with her father.

She didn’t lose her first tooth until she was seven years old.

Each time Seiji left for “work trips”, he returned with a new charm to add to a charm bracelet Yui got for her twelfth birthday.

Her favorite charm was a floral cross with a cutout heart in the center.

As she got older, the nuns began lectures on purity and motherhood. When she hit puberty, they bought her three plain, white bralettes, which she wore until she moved to the Sakamaki manor.

Yui kept a diary of her future wedding plans. She planned to the detail how her groom would love her, how her dress would look, her bridesmaids, the flavor of the cake, etc. She still dreams of it.

She used to slip little heart-shaped notes into Seiji’s luggage before he left for work trips. Little “I love you Daddy”’s litter the bottom of his bags.

When she found out she was moving, she was distraught. She tossed herself into her prayers. How could she be leaving the only family she had ever known?

The morning she left, she delivered handwritten notes to the nuns who helped to raise her, and asked them to braid her hair one last time.

Day 25♡: Community

Yaaaaaay! I'm done!! My idea was to create a fake otome game cover using khr male ocs as the love interests! Also made a fake screenshot with Dan who is not a love interest. [I like thinking discourse dissolves amount fans about this... :) one side demands he becomes one because he's so hot and relatable the other side is like "HELLO? He is gay and has not one but TWO boyfriends!!!"] Chief Daniele Costa belongs to @lixenn

Anyway tagging in order of character drawn along with their creator: Murakami Ichiro belonging to @melonchanverse , Hibari Naoya belonging to @cloudvaria (note: this is not mainline TYL! Naoya design!) , Ai Kai belonging to @mimiruku (note: I gave him this hair...I thought him looking like a reverse Dino hair style wise would be funny.), Yorimitsu Yui belonging to @einsatzzz , Sergey Shouta belonging to @eternitas , and last but not least Tristam Cavalieri belonging to @myrmyrtheorca (note: this is the TYL! Design Myell made for me for this fake otome cover! It may not be canon.)

Under the cut is the info regarding the fake otome!!

Fake Otome Game title:

Love ≠ Life: Dance With Darkness

[Fake] synopsis: Sasagawa Kyoko has lived a relatively normal life despite her older brother being the sun guardian for the Neo-Vongola. Kyoko tries not to think too much about this or the fact his boss and her old classmate, Sawada Tsunayoshi, distanced himself from her after middle school.

However not long after the Neo-Vongola separates from Vongola, Kyoko finds her life becoming much more dangerous very quickly. Will these new experiences lead to a fruitful love or will it lead to her death?

Some things I thought of for this:

Yui: FIRST OF ALL HE IS STILL MARRIED!!! Just "separated" and he cries and is so broken up about his wife potentially leaving him and he'll be homeless. Kyoko comes across him living in a cardboard box with a tin can to collect change... he used to live across from his actual house but his neighbors called the cops because "some homeless guy is panhandling!" So now he's in the park where Kyoko comes across him.

[Good End] Yui and Kyoko form a friendship where Kyoko listens to Yui's heartaches and gives him advice to get back with his wife. They go to a bar where Yui drinks and Kyoko sips juice.

[Bad End] Yui and Kyoko fall for each other but can not be because Yui is homeless and still with his wife. He leaves Kyoko's apartment that he had stayed at and now lives under a bridge. His wife hears he was staying at another woman's house and divorces him. Yui is back to being harassed by cops but it's fine because Kyoko brings him food and blankets...It's so cold under the bridge...

[TRUE END] Kyoko's friendship and good cheer leads to Yui reconciling with his wife!! He's back in the house and everything!!! Kyoko feels happy for Yui but also a bit sad. Will she find love? Well at least she found a dear friend...

Tw: cheating scumbag incoming. General mistreatment as well. Pregnancy mention at the end of the Kai portion.

.

Kai: THERE ARE NO GOOD ENDS WITH KAI. Either ("good" end) you as Kyoko get in a relationship with him where he constantly cheats and goes "you made me because I needed more attention." Or (true end) these two dated a bit and you left him because of the cheating but it hurts still to see him around town with five girls clinging to him simultaneously. Or (bad end) where it's the same as "good" except now Kyoko is pregnant. 😀

Ngl, the others feel like you can actually romance them with typical otome scenarios happening, so I'll stop here!!

[creative-kny-fics]

Hello can you make the tokito family tickle battle? Muichiro is the lee and Ms Tokito is the ler and Yuichiro and Mr tokito are switches Thank You!

Well, I hope you like it, try to do the best I could!

Lee: Muichiro Tokito

Lers: Mr. Tokito (Yusuke)

Switchs: Yuichiro Tokito and Mrs. Tokito (Tomomi)

Tomomi narrates: What more could I ask for? I have a wonderful husband, the gods blessed me with not one, but two children.

Our house is small, but it has the most important thing, love.

My twins, I have no words to express the happiness I feel, watching them learn to crawl, babble, walk, talk, run while laughing, I couldn't be happier and more grateful

'Guess who it is~'

'Even if you fake your voice, our children are not tall enough to cover my eyes', Yusuke laughed, as he placed a kiss on his wife's forehead.

'Where are Mui and Yui?'

'Oh, the children are playing outside. We were playing hide and seek, it will take them a while to realize that I broke the rules and hid in the house hahaha'

'You should go back to them. They might pout, especially Muichiro, you know he's a little spoiled.'

Yusuke narrates: Guilty that one of the twins is a spoiled child.

I spoil them both, but Yuichiro always throws tantrums when I try to pamper him, it's not that he doesn't like it, but it seems like he's embarrassed.

Hahaha you should see how he pushes me away and then runs to his mother to "complain" to her that I am hugging him very tightly, so different from his brother.

'Heh, I don't think that will happen and if it does, well, we'll have to deal with two little tantrums for a while hahaha!'

'Yusuke, love, you can't deal with them. You always cover your face because you can't handle the cuteness on their faces when they pout. You have a soft spot for them'

Hahaha, well, she's right about that, I can't help it and neither can she, so she has no right to claim me.

'Ooooh, it seems like someone forgets that they can't deny them anything either!'

'Yusuke, don't be so childish hehehe. A-ahahaha! Hehehey!!'

'Childish? I'm not childish! Do you want something childish? I'll give you something childish!'

'Ahahahaha! Stohohop! Suhukehehehe!! Stohohohohop thihihis!!'

'Dad, what are you doing to mom?'

Muichiro narrates: It was very strange, dad and mom don't usually fight, why now? Something had happened between them.

'Why are you hurting mom?!'

'Eeeeh? I wasn't hurting her, kids, we were just playing and...'

'Liar! If you were playing, mom wouldn't have asked you to stop!'

'Yuichiro! Let dad talk, maybe there's an explanation...'

'Kids, hehehe, we weren't fighting, at least not in a certain part. I don't usually like your father's game very much, that's all'

I still don't understand... Mom always loves to play with us, why wouldn't she like to play with dad?

'Listen kids, dad and I are fine, we were just playing a little. I don't really like being tickled, that's all, everything is fine, okay? Come on, give mom and dad a hug!'

Yuichiro narrates: No, I'm not going to give them a hug, I'm not going to give them a hug, here's something else and I...

'What a miracle that you joined in the hug, Yui! You usually avoid them!'

... WHAT MOMENT IT HAPPENED?!

'I knew that internally you liked displays of affection! Don't be shy, my son, if you continue being so embarrassed, your face will turn as red as the color of my eyes hehehe'

'Bad joke, dad... And why were you fighting?'

'Yuichiro, we already told you that we weren't fighting, we were just playing'

That's not a game, sometimes it's torture, you know? I understand mom, I don't like them either, but should I tell you something? Muichiro likes them, look what I'll do...

'Hey Muichiro, can I show you what mom and dad used to play?'

'I thought you were upset with the game they were playing'

'Well, not anymore, then? Do you want it or not?'

'Well, I don't think it's that bad'

Oh brother, you have no idea...

The Narrator (that's me) narrates: Yuichiro asked his brother to stay still and close his eyes, but what do you think, Muichiro does know Yuichiro's "tricks", so he said that the explanation was no longer necessary.

'Oh, it's not necessary anymore? Are you afraid, Mui~?'

'Noooo...'

'No? Then why is your face red and why are you smiling?'

'Mom, dad... Don't let him catch me!'

'Come here little one!'

They will be busy like this for a while, or rather, they would be, because the house is not very big and the only thing they did for a short period of time was run around their parents while they laughed when they saw how Yuichiro "caught" Muichiro and this ran on the opposite side while being chased

'I hear you laughing, Muichiroooo~!'

'N-nohohoho, I'm nohohohot!'

'Children, stop running, we don't want you to fall'

Yusuke, do you predict the future? Because that was exactly what happened and, believe it or not, the one who fell was Yuichiro, amazing, right?

'Yuichiro! Son, are you okay?!'

'Yes, although, it hurts a little...'

'Nii-San...? Are...?'

'I tricked you urchin! Come here!'

'Aaaaaah!! Dohohohon't!!'

'Don't what?'

'I cahahan't sahahahay it!! Yohohou knohohow the wohohohord!!'

'Do I know it? Hmm, I don't know, there are so many words, you can't ask me to choose between one of them!'

Yusuke Narrates: Aren't they cute? His mother and I don't find it strange that Yuichiro plays like this with his brother, he usually does it countless times, sometimes for longer than others.

'Yuhuhuichirohoho!! Ahahahahaha!! Pleheahasehehe!!'

'Please what? Do you want me to continue? Don't try to lie to me, because I know how much you like this'

'I'm tohoho ahahahaha... I'm toooo fluhuhusterehehehed for eeeeeeep thihihihis!!'

'I notice, your face is completely red'

'Yuichiro, I think you should let Muichiro go now, don't do what you wouldn't like done to you'

'And who says he doesn't want us to do it?'

I love my wife, she understands our children so well and knows how to calm him down, I probably wouldn't have been as lucky.

'Huh?! No, wait!! AAAAAAH!! PFFFFT! G-gehehet... Gehehehet ohohof meeee!! Muhuhuichihirohoho!! Hehehe help!!'

'I don't think Muichiro can help you now and since we know he wouldn't dare take revenge on you, we'll do it for him!'

Another day ended with a good dose of laughter, what more could you ask for?

Of P's: A Prostitute and A Priest

Confessions and Lies

Laito was a priest. It's a destiny Karlheinz laughs at and his brothers pity him for. There were several circumstances he rolled his tongue to halt avalanching curses being freed to this world. And there were times he regretted every suffering he endured and every sacrifice he gave just to compensate for his murder of Eve.

It wasn't an intention when the same scene occurred where he pushed his mother from the balcony. It was a temptation that on a blood moon, the heart of her mother once again beat and, as if by fate, he found himself again looking down on the vessel where Cordelia's heart nestled. He pushed Yui from the balcony to the roses below whose thorns torn areas of her skin it could reach. And as if it wasn't enough to kill the human girl, Kanato burned her down, leaving burned corpse and awaiting punishment.

It's a funny situation, a vampire leading a mass on a church, a vampire doing the sign of the cross, a vampire taking the body and blood of Christ, and a vampire preaching God. At the same time, it's melancholic. He killed to show his love and got punished for it. Could it be that vampire's way of showing love, all this time, is wrong? Could it be that love is not for him? He does hope that love is a journey he sets off to find. And then, perhaps only then, will he ever earn a crumb of gratitude for his blood and sweat.

"Father?"

He snapped back from his thoughts. After the mass, he assigned himself to the confessional booth. It was his schedule. Nothing much happens in the confessional booth, not much people are confident enough to let anybody, even priests, know their deep dark secrets. And yet here's Masahiro, a man about his early fifties, confessing every time it's his turn to occupy the booth.

"Yes?"

"Never mind, that's pretty much the sinful things I've done for the meantime. Would you like me to repeat it, Father? What prayers should I recite before I close my eyes?"

He was bombarded. As much as he would like Masahiro to repeat himself, it'll just be the same. The constant commitment of adultery never left the man's groins, even for an ex-convict. He never learned his lesson. And so, with a sigh, he spoke, "I've heard sufficient of your confessions, Masahiro. I would like you to recite a single Our Father and ten Hail Mary. And if that won't be enough, I suggest you be contented with the soul of your wife."

"Have you never craved a woman, Father?"

He thought. It'll be a lie if he says he never did. Way back before he entered the Catholic Church, he never slept without touching women. Nor did he closed his eyes without thinking of a woman's image, sprawled out in front of him, breasts and nether lips wide open for his mouth and eyes to feast upon. Yet he stayed silent.

"Never did I."

Masahiro left after a decent farewell. A talk with him was enough to burn out his time in the booth. Just a few minutes were left when the man left. He's off to go home. A separate mansion for him alone. From the moment he started his studies to priesthood, the other Sakamaki's begged Karlheinz to assign another household for him. A household he could fill with newfound holiness which his brothers avoid themselves from acquiring. They begged their father. They begged.

However, as he was about to stand from his seat, slim thumps of stilettos reached his ears. They were hasty as they sound closer.

"Father! Am I too late?!"

A woman. But she sounded young. She sounded like she's in her early twenties. Most women, he can count them on his fingers, who came to confess were old ones, older and about Masahiro's age. No penitent he ever had was as young as her. Or...as young as she sounds.

Without thinking for the appropriate verdict, he concluded. "You are not too late, there are plenty of time left."

The idea of a young woman, confessing a sin, intrigued him. It made him want to let the sun set while listening to the dark matters this woman pulled off which she regretted. Could she ever be helped?

He heard a sigh of relief from the other side. Next is the faint squeak of the cushion where penitents kneel.

"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I came to be the Lord's forbidden woman."

"When did you started?"

"Not too long from now, Father. I want to repent. It scared me, it made me disgusted with who I am. I want to change."

"The Lord shall help those who call his name. Tell me, woman, what caused you to commit such a bold sin?"

"I lost my parents. I lacked financial support for my education."

"What made you think that such will meet your needs?"

"I did not think it will meet my needs, Father. But it's a more efficient way to gain money faster."

As common as it is, never did he ever have a penitent of such sin.

"We're you not offered scholarships?"

She went silent. "I was, Father. Yet it failed to satisfy my needs."

"Whatever needs, is it?"

"The essentials, Father."

There was silence. A silence so loud Laito began tracing her features through the tiny pattern holes in the wall. Blood red lips, perfect wing eyeliner, thick black lashes, and pale white skin. She looked as though a vampire were it for her living scent.

"Alright. I am in no place to judge you, but I am in position to guide you. Change your path, woman. It is not too late for everybody who repents. Never enter..."

"The club, Father."

"Never enter the club, ever again."

"Whatever choice do I have, Father?"

"The Church offers opportunities for those who need them."

There was silence, for the third time. Laito felt all the sympathy he has went eroded. Suddenly, the door opened. A teenage male gasped, "I'm sorry, Father, I thought the booth has long been empty!"

Laito checked his watch. It's past confession hours. On the other side, the woman stood fast, judging from the sounds her movements made.

"I'm sorry, Father. I should get going now."

"It's okay—" He stood from her seat, trying to make her stay.

"Woman!" He called as footsteps started to faint.

He was restless that night. The red of her lips made him crave blood as if breaking the holy barrier that kept him to fulfill his punishment. The wing of her eyeliner as keen as his senses. There's no denying it, the predator is itching for a prey. A priest is becoming a man. A man who craves a woman.

HEAVE-HO! To whoever reached here, I'd like to let the warmth of my gratitude wave to your hearts! I've been writing (occasionally) here on Tumblr and decided to actually attempt a fanfiction with multiple chapters. That would explain why this one is pretty hanging in its end because supposedly, this one has more than its beginning conveyed. Now the thing is, I eventually lost the plot for this one and was plugging twists to it more than what I've originally planned. I don't really know if this one can make it through the hurdles of time but hopefully, my doubtful ass will have the courage to finish what I've started. What do you think? Should this one be given a chance? I know there are some glitches or things that seem pretty weird, but hey, there's a corresponding explanation for everything and that's what I want to achieve as I unfold the corners of this story hopefully. Should this one be given a chance?

Sweater Weather (Depressed!Gojo X Reader) Pt.10 - Finale

The spotify playlist is here (Currently playing: Sweater Weather; The Neighborhood) (Not adding lyrics to the text so I can write more) Series masterlist My masterlist Divider Credit to: @uzma-qureshi Suggestive at the end!

The wedding was a courthouse one. Neither of you really had close friends, so you wanted to invite the people that matter. Nanami, Shoko, and the 1st and 2nd years all watched as Satoru came in wearing a simple black suit, you wearing a simple white dress. But you both had the biggest smiles on your face (And you had that huge rock on your finger). Your tummy hadn't started growing yet, you looked like you were a little bloated at most, you looked absolutely glowing though. Nanami gave you a warm hug and Shoko pat Satoru on the shoulder, proud of him. The students all raved about how beautiful you looked, before they started to pick on Satoru about how you were too good for him, and you could still run. But you laughed, a big, genuine laugh, and Satoru looked at you like you hung his moon and stars. Satoru wasn't a tool, he wasn't the strongest, he was your about-to-be husband, and soon to be a father. He teared up behind his sunglasses, opting to wear them instead of his blindfold. Of course he would take them off when you got officiated, but for now he was letting them relax. Nanami also had his glasses off today as you chat with him, before he hands you a small gift. A baby pacifier. You almost burst out in tears, him and Shoko were the only ones who knew and it filled your heart with utter joy. ~~~ After your hand-written vows you both couldn't help but get lost in each other as the papers were signed. You were officially married. He dipped you down low and bumped his nose to yours affectionally, whispering, "I love you Mrs. Gojo", "I love you too, Mr. Gojo", before your lips melted into a gentle kiss. One with emotion poured into is, as your affection for each other filled in the broken pieces and cracks of your well-beings. This was love. ~~~ 8 and a half months later you lay back in the hospital bed, having just delivered twin babies. Nanami had gone and gotten you another pacifier gift after the announcement and you laughed, he would be their uncle for sure. The two girls both managed to have Satoru's blues, even though they shouldn't have been so developed yet, but they had your nose and face structure. Satoru cried more than you did, he had not 1, but 2 baby girls. Yui and Yenna. ~~~ You sat by the pool as Satoru taught your little ones to swim 6 years later, Yui had gotten primarily white hair, but your color was there slightly at the roots, while Yenna fully got Toru's white. They were laughing and playing in the shallow, Satoru's smile being a big one, he had never been happier. Nanami stopped by later that evening to take them to his home, he and his wife loved babysitting them, and his wife had a little one on the way so it was good practice. ~~~ The second Nanami's car pulled out of the driveway, Satoru was on you, kissing down your neck as his warm breath tickled you. "Well isn't someone needy?", you chuckle and he pouts into your neck, "Come on, we never get us time like this anymore, daddy Toru wants some sugar", he tells you and you holler with laughter before he has you pinned to the door. You were in for a rough night, and maybe another baby. Who knows, Toru wanted a boy this time.

[afra-blueraz]

I was talking to my cousin about Yui's recent merches and told her that Yui is Rejet's favorite heroine. Because they are paying attention to her more than ever.

Now look at this. Daisuke Iwasaki published her wedding dress in his Twitter account. Congratulations DL community. Our heroine is Daisuke's favorite too 🥺💘. We won.

Somehow I feel that Rejet employees decided to make up for the terrible life they gave Yui.

I can imagine that 13 boys are waiting for her in background. But nah baby. It's my turn. She is my wife. Just mine 😝.

My Queen I love you ❤️💘.

Ghost of You

The sun beamed down on the two lovers resting on a giant mushroom top in Alfheim Online. They had been working on clearing a bunch of side quests with their party that day. But to one of the two, it felt off. His movements were sluggish, his body disconnected from the avatar it resided in. To most, it would seem normal, his movements still had the disciplined form of someone who had spent his life training in combat, despite him giving up the sword in the real world long ago. But to his partner, both in combat and in soul, she could tell he was struggling. 

“Kirito, are you feeling alright?” The autumn-haired girl stoked the dark hair of the noir boy who laid his head on her stomach.

“Hmm? Yeah everything’s fine Asu, why?” While his demeanor was calm, she could tell there was something eating him up inside.

“Honey, I’m your wife, and your partner too. If there’s anything troubling you, I’ll be right by your side to fight it with you.” The raven haired spriggan closed his eyes and weakly smiled. He knew that Asuna was his true other half, a partner in life and in love, but he was worried about something that might tear them apart.

“Asuna… I need to convert my account over again. I might be gone for a bit, so if you could… While I’m gone, please give Yui and Strea twice the amount of love as normal.” He thought of his daughters, and hated the thought of needing to leave them behind for any time, but he knew there was something he had to face alone.

“Of course honey, but call them every night at least okay?”

“Heh, been doing that since we escaped SAO. I can promise that won’t change one bit.” But some other things might.” He left the thought to himself, he wasn’t ready to commit to any real change, but he needed to see the truth for himself.

“Do you need me to look after Excalibur for you? You lost most of your items the last time you converted over…”

“Haha, nah that’s not an issue. Sinon's already got that covered, after all, it’s her sword, she just knighted me with it.” He laughed seeing the flustered face of his wife, even though their situation was more open and fluid than most, she still got a little jealous of the girl’s hanging off of him, especially the teal sniper who taunted the two of them the most. “And if she converts, it should default to Yui now since she’s taken my inventory any other time I convert.”

“Alright, we should get back to the others to continue the quests now, good chance for you to say bye before you log off for a while anyway.”

“Of course. Dontcha go marryin someone else without my permission first~”

“H-hey!”

“Oh come on, I’ve seen how Liz stares at ya Asu. I’m sure she’ll take great~ care of you while I’m gone~” He giggled, imagining the sight of his wife and Liz locked in an embrace together.

“Even if she does, you’ll still always be my beloved partner, promise~”

“Heh. Didn’t take much convincing- you’re so cute.”

The spriggan rested on the undine, never wanting to leave her. But today, he needed to face his fears. Alone. A mission for the solo player. 

…

A year prior, an event stuck itself to Kirito’s brain like a parasyte. He could never fully escape the thought of it. He had logged into Gun Gale Online in order to investigate the DeathGun case. Due to the gacha system that determined avatars in the game, Kirito had awoken to the sight of his hair in his face. Long streaks of grey locks adorned him, framing his soft face. Staring at his reflection in the windows of nearby shops in the dark brutalist environment, he noticed things in himself he was afraid of. His figure was soft and feminine, far from the typical soldier of this world. It was not too dissimilar to his real life appearance, but the pronounced hips and narrow shoulders made him shift in place uncomfortably. He stared at his visage, noting he looked as if he was Sugu’s big sister instead of her big brother. He slowly met his own gaze. His eyes had always been a dark grey, something his adoring sister always teased him for, calling him a zombie with the dead gaze that adorned him. But that day he saw something different in them, where a blank glaze once covered his view, there were now highlights visible for the first time, and a deep purple hue that left him breathless. He grasped at his chest over his heart and was hit with a deep pain, and an even deeper longing. But he had to move forward, he had a mission.

A week ago Kazuto had been out with his sister Suguha, though they were only related tangentially as cousins. That became something Kazuto had become fixated on, as throughout their day out, multiple people had stopped them, asking if they were twin sisters. Kazuto didn’t look his age due to his years in Sword Art Online, his body permanently stunted by his inability to move for so long. But he was really wondering if he truly looked that similar to Suguha because of it. He recalled that as he was young, they were confused for twin girls all the time, but they were younger then… It made sense right? Kazuto stole an old skirt from Suguha’s closet one day as she was out practicing kendo. She hadn’t worn it in years, he figured she wouldn’t notice if it were gone… He slipped it on and stared himself in the mirror that spanned the back of his bedroom door. Despite the clear difference in their “endowment” Kazuto had seen as bright as day the connection. Even if his chest wasn’t voluptuous, even if his hips weren’t as pronounced, he saw the obvious connections between him and his sister. His face was soft and round like hers. And in the center of it all, he saw it again, his dead eyes replaced with the loving purple gaze he’d seen back in Gun Gale. He threw off the skirt in a fit of anger at himself. He stashed it beneath his bed, he didn’t wanna look at it. But… his heart longed for something regardless.

Today, as Kirito logged out of Alfheim Online, he converted his account over to Gun Gale Online once more. He needed to spend more time there… She needed to see herself again. 

…

A dark raven was prone atop a clocktower, aiming down at the streets below. Through the scope of their Hecate sniper rifle, they could nearly see the stubble on the men in the party stories below them.

BANG!

A single clean shot had decimated two of the party members.

“I’ve gotten good with this thing… heh.” The shadowy figure smiled to themselves as they lined up another shot. “Maybe now I can give her that duel I promised…”

BANG!

A full party wiped in such a short amount of shots. Too easy. The slender gargoyle on the roof brushed their long locks behind them, the deep grey shimmered with silver highlights despite the soot and ash coating it. Suddenly, they heard someone ascending the wall in front of them. They prepped their shot, but they were caught off guard by a blur of seafoam green, before their eyes met a familiar smiling face in their scope.

“Hey Sinon, come here often?” A playful taunt escaped their lips.

“Yes actually, I do believe you’re in my spot after all Kirito.” She giggled, a sight Kirito had grown to love as Sinon had opened up more and more. “I’m surprised you’re using a real weapon instead of wildly flailing your photon sword about.”

“Oh you just miss seeing me with my sword in my hands dontcha?” Sinon blushed and angrily pouted, another adorable sight. “Well, my lovely partner here in GGO taught me so much, I figured I’d honor her by using the same weapon as I practiced. I need to give ya a good duel sometime after all.~”

As he grew closer to each of his friends, the one-sided teasing evolved into a playful banter between them, learning how to push each and every one of their buttons.

“So that’s why you left ALO huh? Trying to get a headstart on training for our next B.O.B. huh?”

“I think you’ve got years ahead of me Sinonon~ One week away won’t save me. But truthfully that’s not the full reason.” Their eyes shifted away from Sinon, and towards the floor before smirking and shaking the thought away.

“I’d hope so, it’d be such a shame if my Star-Crossed Soldier was training without me~” She playfully pouted at Kirito.

Ever since the last B.O.B. ended, article after article dubbed the two winners as the Star-Crossed Soldiers, after Kirito’s embrace with Sinon in the trials, their close encounters in the cave and Sinon’s literal fiery embrace at the end to claim their tied victory. Liz had given Kirito an earful before the articles came out with how close he’d been to Sinon, but after the nickname appeared online, Kirito became convinced Liz and Asuna would actually kill him. Up until Asuna proposed the poly arrangement at least.

“Jeez, don’t let Asu hear you callin’ me that, otherwise I won’t be the only one getting pierced by her rapier.”

“Oh don’t worry, I’m not lookin’ to get inbetween ya- in that way at least~” The look she gave Kirito with that comment seemed to literally take health off the poor player.

“Anyways, why’re you here if not to train to win over me?”

“...” Kirito shifted his look away from her, and with that motion he accidentally revealed the accessories adorning his hair. Sinon snickered.

“Ah, I see you’re just here to play dress up huh?” Her eyes wandered and looked over the rest of the boy. He still had his trademark carbon fiber cloak, but now his outfit beneath was…

“Kirito… is that my outfit in black and silver?”

The noirette blushed a vibrant crimson, and smiled.

“I think there’s someone you need to meet Shino.” The girl was surprised by Kirito’s use of her real name ingame. He typically tried to refer them as their avatar’s name. This was deeper, this was personal to her. 

Shino grabbed the hands of the shadow before her and looked into it’s eyes.

“I think I know who you mean.” She smiled with pride as they drew closer. “What’s your name? Who is my partner in this world?”

The eyes of purple and blue had met, a synthetic gaze between them escalated into a whirlwind. In a moment, they were back in that cave again, holding eachother close, the heat of their bodies pressed against eachother.

“In this world… And all others… My name is Kiriko.”

With those words, Sinon saw Kiriko revert back to how she saw her initially. Another girl, just like her.

They spent the next week training for the upcoming B.O.B. ingame, and shopping for Kiriko in the real world. The night of the battle, Kiriko had stayed at Shino’s apartment, so they could celebrate their victory.

…

A flurry of gunshots was silenced by the cruel end of a photon sword. Despite her training with a sniper, Kiriko decided to return to the classics for most of the match. Her and Sinon made for a perfect duo as front line and supporting fire. Her favorite moment had been when Sinon and her had been cornered, with Sinon facing her while she had her back to two enemies. Sinon fired at Kiriko, and she split the bullet just like in their trial duel, with the two pieces finding their home in the skulls of their attackers. It was a game now, just for fun, and they wanted to perform.

“I suppose that is the last of them huh?”

“Suppose so.”

The two stood against the other, scratched, bruised, covered in virtual blood of both their own, and of others. And now with all cameras on them. 

“You ready to give the girls at home a show Kiriko?”

They smiled devilishly at each other.

“Always.”

In a swift movement, Kiriko removed her heavy black cloak, revealing the matching outfit with Sinon’s own. It was practically bikini armor, except for soldiers instead of for knights, despite Sinon’s insistence it wasn’t. Sinon revealed a photon sword of her own, and as the cloak hit the dusty ground behind Kiriko, both lept towards eachother with fire in their eyes. The clash of purple and green blades sent small debris around them flying, each strike was more powerful than the last. But it was less of a duel, and more of a dance. Every movement, despite the power, was elegant, with perfect footwork and seamless motion. They circled eachother, blade against blade. With every strike forward, the other responded with a dodge and their own strike. Neither had grazed the other, only their sword’s connecting the two. The chorus of slashes against slashes sent both blade’s flying, as Kiriko caught Sinon’s and Sinon caught Kiriko’s, and they continued their masquerade. They drew closer and closer together, despite the blade’s repelling eachother, their bodies had called to eachother. In a flash both lights extinguished, and the two embraced. They smiled at eachother, aware of the camera right beside their faces. They closed their eyes and their lips clashed against eachother. Love blooming on the battlefield. Sinon pressed Kiriko’s blade against her back, and ignited it, impaling the two of them together, as they tied another B.O.B.

…

The pair awoke from their brawl back in the real world. Both had imprints on their faces from where their Amusphere’s had sat on them. They giggled to eachother as they traced the marks, holding eachother’s faces. 

“I’m glad you got Asu’s approval before all that, I know that Liz’ll still tear both of us apart though” Sinon snicked, imagining the pink leprechaun’s stunned face watching their dance.

“Hehe, yeahhhhh. Just because me and Asuna are poly doesn’t mean the jealousy’ll ever just up and leave. Liz is probably upset that I managed to steal both Asuna and you for myself.” 

“Oh I think she’ll be more jealous of me, after all, I was the first one with the new girl in the group.” She laughed at the thought, knowing all of the girls’ not-so-subtle-crushes. 

“Oh yeah, speaking of, I guess tonight they all get to meet Kiriko at the party in ALO huh?”

“As long as you’re not nervous, and I’ll be there supporting you always.”

“With you by my side, I’ll always be ready. Let’s hop over and meet them.”

An evil grin reached Shino’s lips.

“Welllllll you and I both need to transfer our accounts back over, so you should set that up real quick.”

“Right, right of course. Better not keep them waiting-”

Kiriko turned away from Shino to her laptop, starting the slow transfer of their accounts. With her attention away, Shino slipped out of her top and pajama bottoms, and waited for Kiriko’s full undivided attention.

“Alright we should be good in around twenty minu- HUH!”

Kiriko’s face was lit ablaze by the sight of the scantily clad girl infront of her.

“Hehehe, whatcha waitin for? I know we got the cash prize, but it’s time for our real~ reward now.”

She unbuckled the back of her bra and let the garment slip down, exposing her modest, but perky chest with a light bounce.

“We won’t keep them waiting long- but I already told Asuna- I get first dibs tonight- which means I get first ever dibs on Kiriko~”

She pounced on Kiriko, pinning her to the bed. 

They showed up in Alfheim, an hour later than everyone expected.

…

Sinon entered the main living space of the home their party had shared. Luckily everyone was enjoying themselves already, but she still stammered out an apology for being so late. 

“Jeez, is Kirito not coming?” Liz said in a huff. “I suppose he just doesn’t wanna show after that little stunt you two pulled.”

Sinon blushed heavily, knowing that stunt was far from the worst thing they’d done. Asuna crept behind Sinon and pulled her in, kissing her on the cheek.

“Mwah~ That’s for stealing away my poor innocent Kirito~” She playfully toyed with the cat, happy with the new arrangement they’d found. But the cat’s face lit up, imagining how there was no innocence left in either of their bodies laying beside eachother in the real world. She shook the thought away.

“Hehe, just borrowing her~ she’s yours again tonight”

The party went silent

“HER?!”

As if on queue, a new cait sith appeared from the door. She was adorned with a black cloak and risque armor set. Her signature long grey hair fell down her back, looking just like Kirito in GGO. And she could barely look up at the party as she announced “H-hey everyone. My name’s Kiriko…”

Before anyone had the chance to say anything, Asuna, Yui and Strea all embraced the girl.

“Yayyyyy I get two mommies now!” Yui cheered

“Ah well that explains the armor choices…” Leafa sputtered out.

“We leave Sinon alone with Kiriko for a week and she comes back a girl… Yeah that tracks actually.” Liz was practically beaming.

“I was wondering about Kiriko’s choice of attire in GGO… But now I can’t wait to see her choices in here~” Philia dreamed of all the different event cosmetics and rare treasures Kiriko could now be adorned in.

Silica and Argo were hovering around the new cait sith in their presence. 

“So was I the only one who suspected Kii-gal was a girl?”

“Maybe! But now I get an adoptive big sister!” 

“Hey! Kiriko’s my actual big sister!”

“We can share!”

The crowd started talking inbetween themselves, talking about all the fun things they can do now that Kiriko’s a girl, and Asuna took this as an opportunity to pull her to the side.

“So this was what you were worried about earlier huh?”

“I was worried that you’d leave when you found out what I’d been going through… I’m glad I can still be yours.”

“Oh honey… I love you, husband, wife, partner, I didn’t fall in love with a boy, I fell in love with you. The hero who saved us from Aincrad, and the caring parent to our kids. This is just a new side of you I get to love, and I’m going to love every second of learning about you Kiriko. Now ummm. After the party can I head over? It’s been a bit since we um.”

“Heh- about that… If you wanna head over, you’ll have to ask Shino if she’s okay with you staying…”

“Sh-Shino? Are you diving from her apartment?”

“Hahaha, well, she did call first dibs…”

Asuna laughed and pulled Kiriko into a kiss. She was glad that Kiriko was still hers, even if she was being shared between a few others. Since for the both of them, regardless of all the others they would come to love, they were still that happy couple from back in Aincrad, soulmates from then, to forever.

Angel’s Fic Rec Masterlist

In an attempt to be organized, and in spite of Tumblr just not having a proper bookmarking system, I wanted to create this list. It will always be a work in progress since I’ll do my best to regularly update it. A lot of what I’ll be putting here are fics close to my heart and regularly find myself rereading!

Soososososo much love for the authors! Thank you always for sharing your writing with us. Fanfics reawakened my love for reading and writing and I just want to always give y’all the credit and love you deserve!

For all these authors, I also recommend their entire works and master lists. Sometimes it’s so hard to choose!

Most works I read or reblog are 18+. Minors, please respect the wishes of writers and DNI.

You can also search the tags “fave fanfic” “fave fic” “fanfic rec” “fic rec” on my profile to find more!

Please remember to reblog their work, not just like it! ❤️

Fave Writers listed under the cut.

Din Djarin [The Mandalorian]
