gender and gender variability in IF is so weird and there is no way to fix it god bless

#representation should never be a numbers game except in IF where it kind of has to be bc if romance is a major part of the story then you-#-want players and MCs of all genders n sexualities to have the same amount and range of options #but that usually means you fall into the ~ secret 3rd gender ~ trap even if u r actively fighting it #bc ur like. counting off nb identities and presentations to mirror your male n female ROs #'ok so you make them gender-selectable to maximize the freedom for each player!'#which is cool. except ur writing a character that is basically nonbinary in ur head bc they exist across genders but in the Actual Written-#-Work that all goes away and they're only ever encountered by the reader as one of two cis gender-conforming versions of themself #like idk maybe this is bc of Me and the way i think of characters but it's so hard for me to imagine writing one of my own as two different #-genders and having them be separate?? and not just different gender expressions belonging to one person. and reconciling that w the fact-#-that that's how ppl are going to see them and ur no longer doing justice to their actual identity #and even if you DO get past that. making those 2 versions distinct based on gender??#bc if they're the same character w the same personality/history/motivations and the only difference is like... 'well this character is a-#-girl now so she has longer hair :) bc that's what girls have :) '#(and disclaimer yes attraction can be based on presentation even tho that can't tell you someone's gender and that affects gender in IF)#but that's Real Life People making their own choices and not. one author with their own unique relationship to gender trying to represent-#-everyone #(you cannot ofc represent everyone and it's more important to do right by your individual characters but gender in IF is so impossible to-#-escape bc of the prevalence of romance)#final disclaimer that there are trans/nb authors out there doing good work and i don't think anyone is evil for doing any of the above #bc as i said. it is basically impossible to get this right. love always loses <3 #HIIIIII everyone who read this. i tried a fun thought experiment of what my WIP would be like as an IF and now i'm having this crisis

Ty for your precious time

𝓨𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓔𝔂𝓮𝓼: Noe Archiviste x gn!reader

Genres: romance, mild fluff

Warning: none

Word count: 1,573

It was another peaceful day in Paris- the weather was just right, the breeze felt just the right amount of cool when it hit the skin, and the sun hung at just the right spot on the horizon. It was almost sunset and a gorgeous hue was cast over the sky. Noe was out on a walk, carrying Murr in his arms. He did that almost everyday, it was like a routine for him. But these past couple times, it was different. Usually he's out just for a stroll or because he was craving some tarte tatin. But lately, he had been seeking someone. It all began last week, when he first saw you- You were standing at the corner of a busy street bustling with people, a piece of paper in your hand. It had some sort of address scribbled on it, along with a not-so-detailed description of a certain cat. How am I supposed to find precisely their cat with such a lousy description..? You didn't really have stable work, so you took up all sorts of odd jobs for money, and this time, you'd gotten a request to find someone's lost cat- a white one, specifically. By this point, you'd looked almost everywhere- at the river banks, on rooftops of houses, in alleyways. You'd even climbed a few trees to check if a cat was hiding between the branches, but you couldn't find a single cat, let alone a white one. You'd searched all the less crowded areas, and that is why you had decided to look through a street bustling with crowds of people. You had always hated crowds. You absolutely avoided being noticed by people. Part of the reason was because you were, well, shy and wary of people, but the real reason was something else. Standing in a corner, you kept looking around. And that is when you spotted a white cat walking lazily on the street. That must be it. Finally. You quickly pulled the cape over your head, covering nearly half of your face- that's how much you hated attention- and sprung towards the cat. Right when you thought you had the cat in your hands, a tall, tanned man appread in front of you and picked up the cat in its arms. Huh? "Ahh, Murr, you'll give me a heart attack don't just run away like that-" So this is not the one I'm looking for. As soon as you realized that, you began to leave. "I'm Noe Archiviste.. Did you want to pet my Murr?" The man said, flashing a wide smile. But you didn't respond. Instead, you hurriedly rushed past him. Unfortunately for you, as you left, he'd gotten a glimpse of your face as your cape gave way to the wind and your eyes met for a split second. He's a vampire too. Vampires could sense each other's presence, so of course you realized it. You were one too. When he saw you though, you noticed his eyes widen. Ughh they're all the same. A lot of people who saw you, always seemed to have a similar reaction. "You're born under the blue moon clan". Its what everyone always thought. "Wait a minute- who are you-" he quickly turned around so that he could face you, only to watch your retreating figure disappear into the crowd. Ever since that encounter, Noe had always been on the look out for you while you hoped you'd never run into him again. The problem was- the uncanny resemblance of your eyes to Vanitas'. The legendary Vanitas. This alone put you at the receiving end of a lot of unnecessary hate, despite you having absolutely zero relation to that man. But everybody thought it was you, that you were a vampire of the blue moon clan and that you would curse them, solely because of your eyes. The best solution you thought of to avoid all this, was to hide your identity. So you pulled on your cape in public and stayed away from people. The evening sky had now turned into a shade of deep purple. It was already night and Noe was still looking for you. "No luck today either.. Right, Murr?" he spoke to his cat as if expecting a reply. The busy streets had now begun to get quieter. His routine walks weren't usually long, but a part of him never really wanted to go home; to rest, until he saw you. As to why he was so hung up on seeing you again, he himself didn't quite understand. If it was curiosity, or mild

attraction that he felt towards you, towards your eyes.. Or maybe just a little bit of both? He wanted to 'know more about Vanitas, in case you were related' or so he told himself. But with each passing day, his reasons to seek you became more and more unclear to himself. Unexplainable. He couldn't get the picture of your eyes out of his head. They were hauntingly beautiful. They made him want to see you again. Just seeing you once and never getting to know you- this realization made him feel uneasy on the inside, to say the least. He decided to call it a day and headed home, feeling unsatisfied. He was getting tired after all. On his way back, he decided to stop by a café which was a few blocks from the apartment he stayed in. Maybe some tarte tatin will soothe my mood- he thought. He put Murr down, outside the café. Pets weren't really allowed in there. He pushed the heavy glass door and got inside. He decided to have a seat at the back section of the café which was usually quieter and had a dimly lit ambience as compared to the brighter, busier front section. He liked it there because it was pretty cozy. He stepped inside and saw no one except one person. Wait. I feel like I have seen them somewhere.. His eyes began to widen at the realization that the person he'd been searching for, who's face he had been seeing in his head all this while, was finally in front of him. He was happy he got the chance to see you again, but more than that he was anxious. You were engrossed reading a book, so you hadn't noticed him enter. More importantly, you weren't even wearing your cape. But.. How could he approach you? What would he say? That he had been seeking you this whole time? For what? What if you were creeped out? What if you didn't recognize him? His head was swirling with all sorts of thoughts, when he finally made the attempt to approach you. He walked towards where you were seated, with his hand extended, "Hey, uhmm.. We've met befo-" But before even he could complete his sentence, you pushed him against the wall beside you and put a knife to his throat. It all just happened so swiftly, he couldn't even comprehend the situation. You were strong. Definitely strong, and he was flustered by your strength. His hand against yours was the only thing preventing you from piercing his throat, as you looked him dead in the eye. But the only thing he could focus on, was how beautifully your eyes shone in the dim lighting. In all honesty, he could've easily overpowered you and had the knife to your throat, switching your positions, if he tried. But that's not how he wanted to treat you, really. "L- look, I just wanted to talk.. I don't mean harm", he gulped. That, and the fact that he hadn't made an effort to free himself from your grip made your grim expression soften. "What do you want?" you asked. "How about you put this weapon down first..?" He said, eyeing your knife. You were hesitant, but ultimately released him, putting away the knife, still keeping your gaurd up. "You tried to pick up my cat once.. Remember?" He asked, innocently. "Yeah, I do recognize you.. But i wasn't picking up your cat", you said, sounding annoyed. He just chuckled. "Haha, you're cute" "What?" "Do you come here often?" He was apparently good at conversations and you both ended up talking for quite some time. He didn't ever bring up anything about Vanitas, which you thought was pretty nice of him. After that meet, you both ended up meeting each other pretty frequently, at the same café and had almost become good friends, when one day- "You know what?", Noe asked. You both were at that café again, late at night. "Yeah?" "You're really beautiful" "What?" "Yeah. When I saw you the first time, I think I've liked you ever since" "Wai-" What is he sayin- You felt your cheeks burn. He was an idiot, and you loved how genuinely honest he always was. He shifted closer to your seat and rested his hand between the both of you. "And your eyes are really pretty" At this point, he was so close to you, you could feel his breath

on your skin. Needless to say, you were a flustered mess. He tucked your hair behind your ear and whispered, "May I?" leaning in closer. You nodded. You liked him. He was such a nice guy, plus, he was absolutely handsome. The moment your lips touched, you felt your skin ignite, and you fell in love with him all the more.

A/n: Thank you for reading, I hope you liked it! This was fun to write but maybe the ending sounds rushed? Idk tell me in the comments. Also, requests are open so send in some <3

"Justice For Traveler"

Aether X GN Reader

Just little scenes that I thought of 😙 In this fic. Reader is a pyro claymore user.

POV You and Aether are best friends being the 2nd person to encounter during his journey. Paimon? She was just emergency food. Your very overprotective of Aether and it became worse when people started making the blonde male as their errand boy when he just wants to find his sister.

🌟--------------------------------------------🌟

"GRRRRR BARK BARK BARK GRRRRR"

Childe screams, clinging onto a tree.

"AAAHHH! GET YO F**KING DOG, B****!"

Aether smiles, 'brightly' at the scared red head.

"It don't bite."

You swung your claymore like a bat, chopping down at the tree, baring your sharp teeth, snarling.

"YES IT DO!!"

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

You stuck your middle finger at a what seems to be a middle aged lady.

"F**k off, Janette. Buy your own Ham."

Paimon was quick to slap a hand over your mouth and smack away the offensive hand while the blonde male bows down repeatedly, apologizing for your actions.

"I-I'm so sorry, Mary! N-Normally, they aren't like this! It's just a bad day for them..! I'm sorry!"

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

"Do you ever have one of those days where you just hold a weapon and everyone looks like a pinata?"

The white haired fairy hid behind Aether, trembling.

"P-Paimon is not pinata!"

Aether sighs.

"No. That's just you being hostile."

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Kaeya was laughing while you chase after him. Shooting fire balls at him with your gigantic sword.

Good thing Lisa didn't call Aether cutie or else you would have tried killing her too. She questioned.

"Do you ever think they're evil?"

The traveler shook his head, watching the fiasco.

"They aren't evil. Its just they lack sympathy for others and goes into a dissociative state and commits atrocities."

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Poor Jean is working so hard only to be told off by an angy gremlin.

"Ah, Traveler! What would you like as your reward-"

You interjected her with a harsh glare.

"After fighting a f**king dragon and all the errands that you all could have done yourself or left for others. You could at least try to find his sister. And no I don't mean putting up posters. I meant pulling investigations. Put the same amount of effort he did for you. All this time he could have moved on to Liyue and found his only kin by now, you donkey."

The poor blonde male couldn't help but look away holding his tongue. He would scold you but at the same time, you were right. His twin could be in Liyue right now and is going somewhere else far away.

"Therefore, f**k y'all. You guys don't deserve him. Let's go, Aether. We're not coming back until they stop being god damn lazy."

Intertwining his hand in yours. You drag him out of Monstandt.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

While the blonde male was gathering silk flowers near Wangshuu Inn. Paimon leaned on top of your head, you huff in response of her weight.

"Just wondering. The way you are so protective of him...Do you like Aether?...Like as a um lover instead of of best friends?"

Without hesitation you said.

"Yes. I love Aether so much. I'd do anything for him. That's why. I can't have my feelings get in the way his goal. Especially his end goal...Returning to his world...But as long as he's happy. I'm happy as well. I'll bury my feelings and take it to the grave with me if I fall by his side."

Your eyes looked empty of light just thinking about it. It sends shivers down the flying fairy's back. Unknown to you, Aether was listening with a shocked face. If you look a little closer his ears are a little red. Paimon didn't like the look of a broken doll you had and tried to ease the tension.

"L-Let's have cream stew for t-tonight!"

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Xingqiu kidnapped Aether and you didn't where they were which made you turn almost half of the Liyue Harbor upside down, committing arsons. Your flying companion was screaming at you to stop.

Suddenly, you heard your named being called multiple times by a familar voice. Looking around, you found your flustered bestfriend running towards you in........IS THAT A WEDDING DRESS??!!

Running at him at god speed. You leaped gracefully into a dogeza position, crying.

"MARRY ME, AETHER."

Paimon screeches.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO HIDING YOUR FEELINGS???"

You froze, blinking.

"Oh yeah. Scratch that. Step on me instead."

----------

Fluff done. Back into Nsfw I go 🤪 Next is a request for Diluc X Reader. No sneakpeeks! Mayb.....

Relationship Headcanons

↦ Character(s): Hakkai Shiba x fem!reader

↦ Rating/Warning: No rating though there are some light mentions of abuse (if you have read the manga you are aware of what I am talking about, I’m not going very deep into it though it literally just mentions it), mentions of anxiety attacks (no detail though), fluff, not proof read

↦ Word count: 1.8k (longer than planned, sections are bolded)

↦ Your Momo’s Receipt: Hello~ I’m post yet another TR headcanon and this was requested by the lovely @strawbub I hope this doesn’t disappoint, it did get longer than planned but I enjoyed writing it. I'll prob do a part two that's more of a scenario based on your first date or something since I didn't go into it here. Please note: for those of you who don’t know my blog is currently under construction, meaning I will not be updating my masterlist for the time being.

So how did you guys meet, well mostly because of Yuzuha,

One day in like elementary you’re walking home and you see this super pretty middle school girl just like yelling at this small group of guys

The guys end up running off just because they don’t wanna deal with her or the attention she's drawn to them

Behind her was a boy, taller than her but obviously younger. You didn’t assume they knew eachother though.

The boy and yuzuha began walking in opposite directions because one was going home while the other was going to pick up something like groceries

You’re so entranced by how she stood up to them yet she’s a girl who was far smaller and you end up catching up to her, almost stepping on her heels

You end up absent mindedly following her into the grocery store and eventually she just freezes, turns, and stare directly at you

Your eyes widen since you must’ve been staring and she just goes “may I ask why you’re following me?” And you explain how cool she was earlier. She invites you over for dinner (esp since her older brother won’t be home) and figured it’d be good for Hakkai to meet someone his age

You end up going over but Hakkai didn’t come down to eat so you never actually got to meet him, though from then on you would see Yuzuha every so often, visit every other weekend or so

But no matter how often you came over the next few months, you never once met hakkai,

That was until you both reached the end of your middle school education and we’re about to begin high school

You had gone over because you were going to borrow an old work book from Yuzuha, and when you go to knock on the door the door opens before your closed fist could hit it, instead hitting a firm chest

You blush and quickly apologize but the person in front of you doesn’t move at all, doesn’t say anything and almost looks like they drifted into space with their dead stare

You assume this is yuzuha’s older brother because you’ve also never met him and you immediately turn to walk away but Yuzuha calls over hakkai’s shoulder

“Y/N-Chan! You just got here where are you going?” This was def not yuzuha’s older brother. There’s no way she’d be that happy with him around; oh my god. Realization hit, the guy who you hit (though it was more of a tap) was hakkai.

The hakkai you had only caught a glimpse of in yuzuha’s photos, never talked to or actually seen in person despite going to the same school and living in the same neighborhood

He must hate you. That’s why he avoids you. That’s def why - is what you think

Yuzuha drags hakkai back inside and invites you in; you sit down with them in the living room and watch hakkai visibly relax now that he’s inside his house, his own space, with a pillow behind him and a blanket covering his lower half, he almost curls up into it as he continues to avoid your stare

“Hi hakkai…Kun? Im L/N Y/N” you say and you see his face dead pan once again

Yuzuha can be heard laughing from the kitchen as she comes back in.

She leans over and begins explaining that hakkai literally just freezes with any interaction between him and girls who aren’t in his family

You nod, thinking maybe it’s an anxiety thing? Which is the case with you, but only because he’s been watching you since you’ve come over (not in a creepy way) wanting to and working the courage up to talk to you

The 5th or so time you came over after that encounter he was inches away from introducing himself before the house phone rang causing everyone to kind of “wake up” in a sense

Every time since then he gets closer and closer but isn’t able to say anything; he even realizes he has a crush on you.

The way you sit when you do homework and how cute you look when you’re focused.

How your forehead scrunches up when you’re trying to figure something out and you end up just sitting back with a small huff followed by yuzuha’s signature laughter.

It’s also a huge thing that you get along with Yuzuha.

So enough with first meeting time for the confession.

He ends up confessing accidentally. He didn’t know you were coming over to begin with so he was flustered out of his mind. And how was he supposed to know you hadn’t actually fallen asleep and you could hear him over the tv

The tv was more white noise than anything and the day was hot since it was the middle of summer causing the window to be open and the sound of soft wind and small birds to drift in; this was the hot that makes you tired so you were all sprawled out of just sitting in a daze

So while resting your head on the table you’re dozing in and out but then you hear hakkai begin to speak, something he never really did around you

Now did you and hakkai text? Yes. Did it take him an hour to reply because his brain would explode when you replied to him? Yes. But was it a start to communication? Also a yes.

You hear him say your name quietly before he moved closer, you can feel his gaze on your features

“I like you” is all he says. Simple and sweet. But you sit there in shock, trying not to blush so he’ll have no idea you heard him but he can tell because your forehead scrunches

You heard him and are focused on if you should reply or not. And he knows that.

You open your eyes and just look up at him, he’s closer than expected. His hand close to yours on the floor and he reaches over and grabs it lightly. Hoping you’ll also return the gesture by holding his hand instead of leaving your hand limp inside his.

And you do, thank goodness, and Hakkai almost mentally can’t handle it.

Once you start dating it’s more so just hanging out at his house or yours; however he talks a bit more and you text a lot more. He’s gotten better at replying. It usually takes him like 15 minutes now

He’s kinda stressed about your relationship but not due to anything you or him did

He’s stressed because of the mentality his older brother gave him

Is he even allowed to be this happy?

He finally has someone thats small enough and naive enough that he can protect you; compared to constantly being protected it’s a sudden, strong, yet good change for him

He’s touch s t a r v e d

Yes Yuzuha shows affection; but he stopped accepting her hugs when he was around 8 just because he physically wasn’t able to handle it due to his bruises and such

But with you, even with his bruises and all you take care of him. Able to coax him into using medicines and toning down the physical violence (that he can control himself)

He also finds it super soothing when you lightly brush over his scars (especially those that his brother gave him), it helps him believe that scars are only physical and can fade with help

One thing that stresses him out the most is trying to hide you from his brother. Any time you leave something at the house its easy to pass it off as yuzuha's but when it comes to things like photos he has with you, he can't hang them up, show them off, or have them as his phone Lock Screen, etc. because he just really doesn't want his brother to know and target you since he'll then know that you're his weakness (aside from yuzuha as well)

Sometimes won't explain why he can't hang out and has legit pushed you out of his house before at the last minute notice of his brother coming home

Will always make sure you get home safe though, usually by having Yuzuha go with you since then she can just say you're a friend from school

Your parents love him, though they were a bit hesitant it became a "you always have a place to stay" because they learned about their family situation from you and yuzuha. So expect him to spend the night when he's too scared to deal with his brother. Same with yuzuha. (yes I know this isn't yuzuha head canons but its hard to write for him without mentioning her when they're so close)

We're talking three person sleep overs. Yuzuha and you of course share the bed and Hakkai takes some time to even set foot in your room much less sleep on a mattress that's on the floor

He has a small heart attack every time he comes into your room because he's overwhelmed with everything, he's never been so comfortable and it makes him feel restless. Like he's never and I mean n e v e r been less stressed and slept better than when he does so in your room

The smell, the colors, just being surrounded by you is something that completely changes his mood

Once showed up after he fought with his brother, tears in his eyes and clothes a bit tattered and you just pulled him to your room, and sat down with him.

You laid on your bed with him laying down onto of you, head on your chest as you rubbed his head and only said a few words "its not your fault"

He ends up crying so hard he falls asleep and gets dehydrated and you have to make him drink a bunch of water when he finally wakes up.

NSFW

super fucking careful w you

almost annoyingly so, but you're understanding

He knows that he might be taking things frustratingly slow but he knows that since you understand and know his history that you can help him get through it

Your first time you think you'll have to call it off because he's shaking so bad

"baby... are you sure it won't hurt you?" he keeps asking.

pretty sure that's the longest its ever taken him to finish because he was so anxious

despite being so slow and hesitant, late he isn't too scared to get a bit rougher

but im not talking anything crazy im talking like he's willing to pull your hair a bit or nip a bit harder at your neck.

Please never ask him to do anything like degrade you or some type of harsh physical rough shit, he can't

like literally im 99% sure that if you ask him to choke you or something he will pass out because of the anxiety attack he would have at even the thought.

in short with nsfw though he is sweet boy. He's a switch through and through. Loves when you take care of everything because then he doesn't have to be scared of hurting you.

Rhi 😳 Lightning Rod was worth the wait!! I wanted to say that I really liked the way you emphasized the tragicness of the cop, like mm it added such a brutality to Baji and what he was involved in. And it was so sad :((

I love your director's cut snippets after fics, could you walk through how Baji's obsession grew from that first encounter to becoming a constant presence in reader's life (even through kazutora😰) like from his perspective?

looking forward to re reading this fic several times 💕

🌙 anon

Ngl I left so many little open ended nuggets in this fic just WAITING for someone to ask dhdhdjjfkfkg

But baji’s pretty simple. You’re kind of screwed from the start, because honestly, who sees a bunch of guys beat a cop half to death, finish it with a bullet to the brain and just let one of them walk you home without so much as a peep?

And it’s probably that moment outside your apartment that seals it. You’re scared shitless, terrified of him – but in those few seconds, caged be between him and the door staring up at him those wide eyes, fear written across every inch of your face – he knows, he fucking knows that he could do literally anything he wants and you wouldn't stop him.

that sort of rush just hits different. it's a little addicting, to be honest.

he meant what he says to you the day he picks you up on his bike; you won't tell a soul. but mikey wants to be sure, and maybe he doesn't mind seeing you a little scared and on edge.

maybe he likes drawing all those reactions out of you, seeing how far he can push you before you reach your limit.

and baji's not the kind of guy to deny himself what he wants, nor is the kind of guy to take things slow, but for you he might just try. ofc 'trying' in this case means showing up unexpectedly in places he know's you'll be and taking you out, because again, he knows you won't say no.

just like you won't say no when he gets a little handsy, or when instead of dropping you back at your apartment and leaving like he said he would, baji just pushes his way inside and makes himself at home.

somehow you end up in a weird almost relationship with him where baji just keeps showing up in your life (and apartment) and you're too uncomfortable/afraid of him to tell him to go away. and for a while he's content enough to let you keep living at your place and working, but the longer this thing keeps going, the more you give baji (intentionally or otherwise) the worse his possessiveness becomes. his place is nicer, he makes good money doing bad things with toman, he wants you where he can keep an eye on you, it just makes sense (to him)

and of course the first day you wake up after he's left to go do god knows what and the front door won't open, you try not to panic because surely it's just an accident or something right? it's not.

but it's not like you can't go out anywhere ever – baji takes you out, sometimes he'll drag you along with him to work things. he'll introduce you to his friends; you remember some of them from that night with the cop.

as far as kazutora goes, he's really the only one that baji can ask for this. draken already fucked up and proved he wouldn't help, you know chifuyu and mitsuya too well, same with any of the other executives – and they're too busy for him to ask. sure, he could go for a snatch and run, blitz you when you're not expecting it, but he's also aware that now you've slipped away and think he's gone for a good long while you're going to be far more cautious and wary. if they're not careful you'll spot them coming a mile away and run.

kazutora, on the other hand, you don't know. locked up for the past few years, you've only ever heard his name brought up in the occasional conversation. he's getting out just as baji comes in, a month or so of overlap, which makes it perfect. he has chifuyu trying to track you down, and once kazutora gets out, he'll help. he'll be the one to go and bring your wayward self home.

and some part of him knows. he sees the look in kazutora's eyes whenever he talks about you. it's a risk, sending him after you, not because he think's he'll hurt you, but–

kazutora's always had something of an obsessive personality. baji fell for you, and they've always been two sides of the same coin. at least with certain things.

part of him thinks it's better this way. tora won't be alone and you– you'll be with someone who keeps you safe and where you're supposed to be. someone invested.

and if the price of that is sharing you with him? so be it.

#rhi shut the fuck up challenge ghfjdkvhjfkd #no i'm kidding but it is a lil long whoops #rhi answers #fic asks #🌙 anon

Unlocked Paperback Event

Note: There are no spoilers for the series or the paperback version of Unlocked. However, there are mentions of Shannon's new baby and her pregnancy. Those bullet points have been highlighted in color (blue) so you can skip them if you'd like (there's only like four)

JC Cervantes accompanied Shannon and asked all the questions, and Shannon highly recommends you check out her series, The Storm Runner

Everything is under a cut to save space! Enjoy!

Has she been getting any sleep? No, not really. Author life prepared her for the lack of sleep, but a new baby is a different kind of exhaustion--she thinks it's totally worth it, though!

She's incredibly grateful to readers for being understanding about the delay; it made her nervous to admit she needed a year off.

The process with her books is such that they're still editing and finalizing things mere hours before it goes to be printed, which is definitely stressful

When doing so for Unlocked, she realized she didn't feel well, but it was different than anything she'd ever experienced before. But because they were so pressed for time, she put it all off and was finalizing Unlocked and sent it off before she took a test.

Why write from Linh's perspective? Unlocked was so weird as a dual pov that there were a lot of characters who were excluded from it, which made her really sad. She'd like to have every character in every scene if she could!

"I wonder if I could get one more short story in," she said in regards to the planning process.

It's specifically in the paperback because hardcover books always get all the attention, but parents don't always allow their kids to buy paperback. This is her way of acknowledging her paperback readers and showing them she sees them

She finished writing the short story while timing contractions, no joke. Turned out to be false labor, but she knew if she didn't get it done before baby arrived she'd never finish it afterwards and she really wanted to be able to give her reader's this story.

Keeper started as short stories, but her mind doesn't naturally go to short things--"even my emails tend to be longer than they should be."

It was a short story from Fitz's point of view, but she realized later it made more sense from the perspective of the little girl who "popped into that story."

Sophie wasn't planned. Fitz was created for a different story, but she was sort of testing out writing him. She just knew he'd meet a girl and know she was an elf.

However, it would be a very unsatisfying ending for him to go "Hey, you're an elf." She knows she's cruel but that feels worse than all her other cliffhangers.

But she really liked that little girl and wanted to know more about her

Shannon went on to show the audience her old idea journal, which has a Cinderella cover. Apparently all her journals are Disney themed.

The story started with Fitz and gradually morphed into Agnes McWeeny, which was Sophie's name early on in the process

Shannon used to work customer service, so she could take note of the goofy names she encountered. McWeeny happened to be one of those.

Fitz was originally 97 in the story due to different elven aging. He had the voice of a 100 year old character coming from a teenager's body. It was supposed to be jarring and show how different the elves are, but that one felt a little too jarring, so she scrapped it.

She briefly joked about how "every other word was an adverb" was she was a young writer.

She thinks the short story she was originally writing was a cute idea, but not enough for a whole book, saying how you "get excited about it and then realize there isn't enough here."

But the characters and the world wouldn't leave her alone, which terrified her because she knew it would be such a big project. It felt like it should be her 10th instead of her 1st, but it wouldn't go away.

She used to keep journals, but now she's switched to her notes app for convenience when she has something she needs to write down. She'd loose things and everything would be arranged randomly, making it more work than it needed to be and "I don't have time for this!"

Have the characters changed in unexpected ways or surprised you? (she does give an answer, but talks about something else that's related first)

She'd tried to fill out those character profile things for each individual, like the 150 question lists asking what they keep in their pocket, who's their best friend, etc.

But this became a way for her to procrastinate instead of working. She wasn't learning anything new about her characters and got through about three before she stopped.

She does give the reminder: just because it didn't work for her doesn't mean it doesn't work. All writers are different.

Apparently before she was Sophie Foster, her name was Sophie Perkins.

She was originally 10 years old, but it felt cruel to put a 10 year old through everything Sophie goes through. Not that 12 is better, but you're more used to change at that age because you've transitioned from elementary to middle school and are more mature. It seemed just a little more reasonable and like she wasn't asking as much of her anymore.

The characters have grown throughout the story but their "deepest essences" haven't.

She always asks one question when making a character: what is this character hiding from me? it doesn't have to be something bad--it could be a secret crush. That "unlocked them for me as a character." Once she knows that, it doesn't really change.

Then she tries to name the character, going through a lot of baby name lists and writing down ones she likes the meaning of

She likes the names to have a meaning specific to the character. Some are on the nose, like how Keefe means handsome, "and that just felt very Keefe."

But others, like Sophie, are less obvious. Her name means wisdom, because she brings wisdom to her story. She sees the Lost Cities in a unique way and gives them wisdom because of it

At one point in time her name was Alexandra because it means helper and defender of the people, but that was too on the nose for Shannon's liking.

What have been surprising plot twists for you? There were time she was gasping as she wrote things, but in general she always has a sense of what things are going to happen, she just doesn't know when. And she didn't know what it would be like to put it on the page or exactly how it would play out.

For example, she always knew that Keefe would do what he did at the end of book four since the moment she met him, she just didn't know when. Making him, she said "at some point he's gonna do this."

As the author, she can make what she wants happen, but it has to stay true to the characters.

Another example of knowing what, but not when, was bringing in the other species. She knew she wanted to at some point in time, but that's about it.

The scene in Everblaze where King Dimitar pops out of the ground came from a 4am drafting night where she was stuck, so she started to play the what-if game. What if an ogre popped out of the ground? What if it was the king? And that created a whole host of problems to be dealt with an impacted the rest of the series.

She hadn't planned those problems specifically for that book, but she knew they'd happen at some point in the series.

Have you ever made yourself cry? Definitely. There were things she where "I loved this, but I have to leave that behind." She'd more sentimental about it than outright sad.

She doesn't write in public because of it. People would ask "why is that lady crying over there?"

In terms of worldbuilding, she first thought "this'll be the funnest thing ever! Shannon-topia!" but very quickly came to realize that "I probably shouldn't be in charge of a world."

Her worldbuilding choices felt fake and forced, as she was picking things at random

She had a 19 page single-spaced document of worldbuilding without making any decisions, so she had to step back and say "Okay. This is not my world; this is the elves world. This is the world that my elves have built. Given what I know about them as a species, what makes sense?" It made the process clearer, but it was strange,

At first she was a little hesitant because she wanted to make this perfect, cool world, but the way her elves made it wasn't how she'd want a world to be.

but she came to accept it (not as a good world, but as the one needed for the story. "Why was she [Sophie] hidden away from it if it was perfect?" Which started to explain why there was a Black Swan and a Neverseen and these rebellions. Because it has problems. It wasn't a perfect world, despite the elves calling it that.

It's a world she's creating, but that these creatures are creating at the same time, so she took herself out of the process. There were a few things she took control of--like the food, because she wanted to make fun foods--but otherwise it had to make sense for the elves, not here.

They're cool creatures, but they're flawed, so their world has flaws as well.

Is there anything you wish you could change or that would serve the story better? (she talks about something else first before answering)

She often finds things she's left for herself in the earlier books--young author Shannon was smart and evil. She wishes she could've known what she was doing with a few things from the beginning so she could play with it more.

Shannon wishes she'd introduced Gisela in book one. She intentionally chose to exclude her so everything about her was a surprise, plus she already had character overload and meeting her wasn't essential. She'd existed in Shannon's brain at the time, but she thought "oh we don't need her yet." But every time she listens (she doesn't read her books, but listens to the audiobooks to remember details) to the scene where we meet Lord Cassius, she wishes Gisela was there next to him.

Anything you actually regret? There's moments/scenes/plot points that she doesn't remember what she was going to do with, so she wishes she'd kept more thorough notes instead of just thinking she'd remember it. Because she doesn't remember a lot of the things she thought she would.

One example: the line in the first (I think) book where dex says "Just wait. Next year we're going to have to dance in elephant costumes." She has no idea what she meant by that! "Why did Dex say this??" She knows she must've had a plan, but doesn't know what it was.

The book was being finalized at that point, so she debated seeing if she could get it taken out, but she knew she must've had a plan for it, so she went "alright, that's it. If I'm leaving that line in then I'm going to have them dance in elephant costumes in book 2!" So the opening ceremonies only exist because of that one sentence. She still doesn't know what the original plan was, but "by golly, they are going to dance in elephant costumes in this book if I'm leaving that line in."

She further confirmed that there are going to be ten books total and that's final. That was how many she originally thought it would be when she first came up with the idea, but she knew she'd never get a 10 book deal as a baby author. She was lucky enough to get three, and then she went one book at a time from there until e got to where we are now.

With each new one, she asked herself "If I have to end it at this book, how would I do that?" Just in case she didn't sell another--luckily she has a very supportive publisher.

Sophie's dealing with a broken world with multiple villains, which is why the story is stretching on as long as it is.

Shannon came up with the idea for the story in 2008, and book 10 is set to release in 2023, so she'll have spent about 15 years with these characters. It's hard to imagine the end, but she thinks Sophie's story deserves to have a conclusion.

The ending has become a combination of what she wanted from the beginning and new things that came up along the way. Some of the problems were literally built into the world, so she's been going "Wow! I don't know how Sophie's gonna fix that!" It's like a puzzle she has to solve

She's created all these giant problems and rules she has to solve them with. It's like a chess game and she's still moving around the pieces.

Are there any movie updates? She wishes! She has spoken to everyone involved and held on to her movie rights for a very long time. But speaking to them put her mind at ease and she says they have a passion and clear vision for how to execute things, saying "yeah, this is a good team."

There's a million steps to creating a movie and they're at the very beginning, but right now all signs are pointing to yes! She hasn't seen the script yet, but it hopeful

She'd like to remind everyone that she has absolutely no say over casting, so you can stop emailing her about that!

Shannon showed a few pieces of concept art that she drew years ago, alongside the inspiration for the Archetype. Photos of those and descriptions will be at the end of this post.

if you could have any of the kotlc animals for a pet, what would it be and why? Silveny! Who doesn't want a sparkly, flying alicorn in their life? She can be annoying with all the transmissions, but Shannon isn't a telepath, so everything should be fine. She can completely ignore her.

If one kotlc food was real, which one would you want it to be? Custard bursts, which is a food she hasn't been able to create a recipe for yet. She knows it would be so good, but all her attemps have been baking fails so far.

Was writing the story from a different point of view hard or refreshing? A little of both. It was a nice change of pace, but Keefe was in a really weird place and struggling a lot, and capturing that was more challenging than she'd expected.

What is your favorite scene you've ever written? A tie between two. In book one, it was the scene where Sophie is leaving her family behind. She'd written like 60 versions of it, trying to balance how sad it was while also show that she was going somewhere she belonged now. But making it too sad would discourage readers from wanting to be like Sophie--"What a bummer to be Sophie Foster." So when she finally nailed it, she was really proud!

the second: from Neverseen when Keefe discovers Mr. Snuggles. She new from the beginning that "at some point Keefe is going to learn and I don't know when, but it's going to be awesome?" It made her laugh as she wrote it.

Which Iggy color is your favorite? Purple poofy iggy, because he's like a puffball. But who knows, maybe book 9 or 10 will be her favorite Iggy!

What's a detail you incorporated that you're proud of or hoped readers would notice? Ella, becuase she's based on Shannon's own childhood stuffed animal that she still has. It's name is Epuffella (unsure if that's how it's spelled, but that's how it was pronounced). Sophie needed a special stuffed animal, which turned into everyone else getting one, too. She highly recommend everyone get stuffed animals.

What advice would you give to your younger writer self? To take more copious notes. So many times she said "oh, I'll just remember this!" and then she forgot it, which leads to mistakes. For example, she mentioned a food in book one that tastes like pizza, then had Sophie make a comment in book three about how she still hadn't found a food that tasted like pizza.

JC Cervantes also answered this question, saying to take it slow, be patient, and let the story come. Let go and be open to what the story wants to be. Don't judge the story. You have to step back and let things happen and unfold. "Trust your story."

The best stuff happens when you loose yourself [in writing]

If you could have one elven ability, what would it be? Both JC Cervantes and Shannon was teleportation!

Though Shannon does think that with a newborn, it would be nice to be have invisibility to sneak out of the room once she's put him down for a nap. So many times he's fallen asleep and then as she goes to leave, she accidentally wakes him up again!

To wrap up the event, Shannon suggests everyone read The Storm Runner Series and buy from Kepler so events like these can continue. Find them as keplers.org (the automatic captioning says "capitalist.org" which is humorous)

Everyone says to stay well, be happy, and have a great night, Shannon finishing with a "Thank you everyone!"

Here are the aformentioned photos of her original art:

[ID: A series of four photos taken of a zoom event, Shannon is visible and smiling in all of them, holding out different drawings and items. In the first, she shows her original concept art of Sophie done in pencil. She appears to have shoulder length brown hair and side bangs and is smiling with her hand on her hip. She's wearing something similar to the foxfire uniform with a half-cape secured with a pin, a pleated skirt, and half-length leggins. Additionally, she has a vaguely elven-style shoulder bag at her side. The second image is of original Iggy concept art. On the left she holds up pink Iggy for comparison. The original Iggy, drawn in pencil, has much more prominent facial features with large rounded eyes, a large mouth, ears like a dog (a little floppy) and a tuft of darker fur on the top of its head. It also stands on two hind lets and holds it hands out in front of it, both feet and hands darker than the rest of the body. It still has the same wings and striped tail, but it overall less fluffy. The third image is another comparison. On the left of the canon moonlark art, and the right is her first drawing done in pencil. There's very little visible difference except for the shape of the head feathers, which are less rounded originally. The bird faces to the side and is cut out, but appears mostly the same. In the fourth image, Shannon holds up a small rectangular box with a gold color. There's the faint impression of an interlocking design in the center, though it's difficult to see. This is what inspired the archetype puzzle from Nightfall. /End ID.]

#I almost forgot to add the photos at the end there #oops!#But I got it!#kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #kotlc event #kotlc unlocked #paperback unlocked #shannon messenger #besties there is so much information here #I hope you enjoy it!#because it took me a bit to pare it down to more relevant information #there's a few things i excluded but I promise they weren't important and you're not missing anything #so many words #the event was only an hour and I yet #2000 words later

You and Me || Harry Potter

Pairing: Draco Malfoy x Slytherin/Reader

Summary: It's always been you and Draco since you can remember, the invincible duo, the two of you against the world but some things have changed along the way and it's not news to any soul at Hogwarts but it's time your parents knew too.

Word Count: 2,8k

A/N: I took a bit to finish but here it is your story @x-dratie-x. I hope you all like it! Tom Riddle is not Voldemort in this oneshot, Voldemort didn’t exist at all but the events of the first war and its consequences still is valid, but with another wizard.

Warnings: A very very slightly sexual conversation and that's all

1987

I didn't want to be at that dinner, I didn't want to have to listen all day long to how well I should behave because the Malfoy's were such an important family or something.

I had plans for the week, I would go with our elf to buy more art supplies and I was allowed to spend the day outside the house, just drawing the landscape.

My parents never let me participate in events like this, because I might mess up, say something inappropriate for the moment, or whatever excuse they decided to make up. But out of the blue, I was told that I would have to be there. Why? I couldn't understand and I didn't even ask them, what good would it do? None.

The day was only getting worse and worse by the hour for me, I just wanted to take off that dress and go play but I couldn't, obviously. So I did what was left to me, smile and eat politely without making any noise or comments, not that there were any comments I would like to make. I had no idea what they were talking about, it was absolutely boring. The only thing that made me feel slightly better were my own thoughts and the fact that their son was as bored as I was.

We knew each other because of some casual encounters between our parents but never had the opportunity to talk to each other, because of course, only grown-ups talk.

But it seems that I drew the long straw after a horrible day, after dinner Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy were invited to stay a little longer and I was excused along with Draco to play.

I could hardly believe it, I wouldn't have to sit there and smile for another 45 minutes, my happiness couldn't be measured at that moment. Not even waiting for my mother to say it again, I stood up and said goodbye politely with a smile before walking up the stairs and I could hear footsteps following me somewhat hesitantly but I didn't care at the moment.

"Come on, let's go play in my room", I exclaimed with a huge smile and threw the bow tie, which was pinning my hair, on the floor and quickly walked over to it uncaringly.

I missed his shocked expression but as soon as we reached my door, he made sure to make it clear to me.

"Do your parents let you do that?", the question made no sense in my head but stopping to think about it now, it makes sense, he should always be flawless.

"They don't care as long as it's not in front of guests, you won't tell them, right?", his greyish blue eyes reflected mine and for a few seconds I thought that was a beautiful effect.

He looked away from me and nodded slightly in agreement, his face covered in shyness and I just squealed with delight. I opened the door and pulled him inside, his hand was so cold that I thought about taking one of my jackets and handing it to him.

"So what do you want to do? I have some toys in my closet, I'll get them", I walked happily to the door and proceeded to try to decide what I would want. Some was not the best word, there were a lot of them, far more than I would ever use.

I came back with a big mulberry box that I've only been able to carry within the last year and placed it on my bed but he didn't even notice, he was looking at my drawings.

"Oh, you liked them. I wish I had done one more today, do you want to try?", I asked him and walked over to the table where my sheets were.

"Yeah, they're not too bad", he stated nonchalantly and I didn't believe him for a moment but I chose to keep my mouth shut for once.

I picked up two white sheets, two quills and sat down quietly on the floor, since I didn't have two chairs for the two of us but it seems he wasn't used to that.

"Come on, hurry up, your parents won't be here forever", I patted the seat next to me and soon he sat down as well, I noticed his posture still uncomfortable and my goal for the day turned to change that, if only for 5 minutes.

From that day on, we became closer and our parents obviously understood and liked that, because we were strengthening their relationship and at no point that crossed my mind. I was just happy to be supported by my parents to visit Draco.

1991

My Hogwarts letter had arrived some weeks ago and I hadn't let go at any point, going to Diagon Alley had become a completely different experience and I couldn't wait, but I had to because I pleaded with my and his parents so that we would go together.

But the day had finally arrived and I had to contain all my energy to not look like an out of control little girl, nothing out of the ordinary but today was more difficult because I was genuinely happy. I was always genuinely happy with my only real friend.

"Y/N, you must hurry or we are going to be late", I could hear my mother's voice from downstairs just as I finished putting on my flats.

As it was a very important occasion I had chosen my favorite outfit, even my parents were a little excited too. They had told me that they had met at Hogwarts and that I would find someone from a good family at Slytherin as well. This part was completely ignored by me but they never found out about it.

"I'm here mom, we won't be late", I said as soon as I came down the stairs and approached them without running. We were near the fireplace and I mentally thanked them for not having to apparate, because it was always a horrible experience for me.

"Okay, I'll go first and you two right after", my father made sure to announce although he always goes first when we go out like that.

After a few minutes, we arrived in front of Flourish & Blotts and there was the imposing Malfoy family. After a small talk in which I had no interest in paying attention to, we all went inside and we were finally able to talk while our parents were engaged in a conversation with the attendant.

"I've already said it once and I'll say it again, I honestly don't understand how you're not that excited, it's Hogwarts", I whispered to him as we walked through the messy shelves full of books.

"It doesn't seem like a great thing after hearing it so many times", I could clearly see that there was something more there, I had known him long enough to know that and also that he wouldn't tell me easily.

"Okay, so you're telling me that you're not the least bit excited to leave Malfoy Manor to start your life?", his lips twitched trying to hold back a smile, his eyes shifted from mine, looking for something to distract himself.

But I could stop him, my cunning little hands went to his waist tickling that area before he could prevent me from doing so. That was enough to make him laugh, although he denied that he was ticklish every time I asked.

This attack did not end well for me, because revenge existed in his vocabulary and was even overused. I had to run, as fast as I could, and it still didn't work.

And why? Because I went to a dead end corridor upstairs, I had never even visited the second floor of that store, the day I went there I had to get unlucky.

In short, I was attacked twice more without mercy, my glasses almost got broken and we were so noisy that the owner gave us a scolding and our parents did the same as soon as we left with our packages, but this was not enough to ruin the day and our good mood.

1993

It was already expected that we would both end up in Slytherin, which was great because we didn't have to be separated, on the opposite, we became closer than ever. It also didn't take long to form our group of friends, actually not more than a month but the thing that made us truly close started in the third year when I had a genius idea.

We all had a reason to dislike Harry, mine was nowhere near Draco's, no one's was but we shared it anyway. It was always fun to pick fights with him, make pranks and get him into trouble on purpose, so why not make it a little game? It was so easy that the idiots, Crabbe and Goyle understood the first few times, you can't expect more than that from them, and this was certainly a record for both.

The game had three main objectives:

- Take the most materials from Harry or his friends: ink, quill, books, whatever they were carrying would be a prize and would get a point.

- See him or his friends more often, with the intention of spying on them just for fun, of course. It could be in class or in the corridors, each time would be an extra point.

- Pick fights with him or his friends, each minute was worth one point and to be proven, had to have someone to confirm it.

Of course, there was no room for lies, and I made sure to put a spell on our board to prevent this. Yes, I had made a small board that stayed with me but each team wrote down their own score.

To make it more fun, we split up into pairs. Draco and I, Pansy and Blaise, Grabbe and Goyle, Astoria and Millicent and Tom and Theo.

And finally, the best part, whoever had the most points at the end of the year would win 5 galleons from each person, as well as having a celebration party financed by the losers.

Needless to say, Draco and I always won since the day I created the game. Our friends always complained about us playing dirty but it was never necessary and deep down they knew it, it must be hard to lose every year so I don't judge them.

1995

"Are they still complaining?", I remained with my eyes closed, it was comfortable to lie curled up against Draco on the couch in the common room. We had two free classes, which was being put to good use to get some rest after a year of N.O.M.S. and a devastating victory in our little game.

"They'll get over it when we come back in September, I guess.... You're missing the best part", his voice came out whispered directly into my ear and I couldn't help but smile.

I didn't need to see the scene to know what was going on, Tom and Theo blaming each other for the defeat, everyone standing back from them because no one wants to get involved in their ego battle and our other friends trying not to laugh because it was a funny scene, even if they didn't know it.

"They're taking longer than last time...", I commented slightly annoyed by the noise. I had no idea what had happened to me, because usually I spent the afternoon celebrating my victory but not today.

"Let's get out of here, you seems so good", he hadn't even completed his sentence when I agreed and painfully got up to go to his room.

But before I could take two steps, I felt his arms go around my waist and legs, leading me up the stairs in a bridal style.

I smiled wider and snuggled into his arms, enjoying more of the warmth and good feeling it gave me until we reached the bed.

"Thanks honey, I don't know what happened today", I commented under my breath as soon as he had me lying on the bed, but I knew it was a lie.

"Are you sure? This isn't related to the fact that our parents will know about our relationship in a few days?", I hoped he would pretend he didn't know but that wasn't the case, I wasn't going to be able to run away from the subject.

"It's just that I don't like them meddling in our lives, of course I have nothing against your parents, I'll love to be introduced as your girlfriend but my parents will be twice as unbearable", I sighed and hugged the blond once more, if there was one thing that made me better it was this.

"Like my mom isn't going to start a 3 year planning for our wedding after she finds out, but at least they'll be used to it by the end of the summer and we won't have to go through this again", he began to fiddle with my hair and curl the strands between his fingers, slowly my shoulders relaxed and a considerable chunk of my worry faded away.

"Yes, I think so but it's going to be a lot harder for us to be alone now. You definitely won't be stepping foot in my room like you did when we used to play together", the memories flooded back and I felt him smile too, it had been a while since this had escaped my thoughts.

"I don't need to worry about that, we slept together for almost the entire year at Hogwarts and they can't do anything about it and we'll keep doing it", I couldn't see him since my face was buried in his neck, but the perfect image of his mischievous grin formed in my head.

"The question is, will you survive for two months without me? Because I don't see that happening", I teased with a huge smirk as I turned to look him in the eye.

"It won't happen because your father won't be enough to stop me love and I'll make sure you don't have to resort to your hands, because we know it wouldn't be enough", smugness was all over his face and as much as I searched for an answer to that, I didn't have one. Not in the first few seconds.

"Good love, that's good because I'm sure your hands wouldn't do a better job either. In fact, I'd be a little worried if they actually still work, in case we get separated", I had managed to wipe the smirk off his face but I also knew it wouldn't stay that way, revenge was still an overused word in his vocabulary.

A week later, there I was on one of the Hogwarts Express cars with Draco, since we couldn't fit all our friends there anyway, we decided to enjoy the last hours of freedom we had together.

And how quickly it went by, one moment I was chatting with my boyfriend while my puppy slept peacefully in her travel bed and the next, we had arrived and a wave of students were trying to get through the doors at the same time.

We stepped off the train holding hands, while I carried only my baby in the other, and this detail did not escape the trained eyes of our parents who were talking side by side but as soon as they noticed us they stopped.

"For Merlin's sake, you two finally decided to listen to me and are in a relationship now?", my mother's eyes sparkled with excitement and I could already hear her voice asking me all sorts of embarrassing questions. "Narcisa, our family is finally becoming one, this is the best news I could ever receive", she could jump for joy now but because of the good posture of a London high society woman, she did not do that.

"How about dinner at our house today? We have a good reason to celebrate," I had seen his mother smile at me several times but even Lucius Malfoy seemed satisfied enough to show a little bit of his teeth, which is indeed shocking.

My parents agreed to the idea immediately and only one look was exchanged between Draco and me, it only took a single look to know that we both acknowledged it would be an insufferable night.

vii - stargazing idiots

word count - 2,854

warnings - reader goes through what is caused by past trauma, mentions of death, mentions of murder

"Angels like you can't fly down hell with me. I'm everything they said I would be."

index

Right after All Might showed up, your body gave up on you and Tsuyu and Izuku had to help keep you up. Your eyelids felt heavier than ever and your head felt like it was going to burst. Your breathing is ragged and the last thing you see is Aizawa's bloodied body before darkness swallows you hole.

It's cold. So very cold.

You open your eyes only to be greeted by a never ending darkness. You feel like you're floating in water.

"Y/n." You hear his all too familiar voice. It's deep, if you could feel it it would feel like rubbing against sandpaper, it's also very cold and a sound that's void of any emotion.

"You did this to me." All of a sudden, Aizawa is standing in front of you, face bloodied and brusied, arms broken and turned to numerous directions. "Why are you so weak?!" He yells as tears begin streaming down your face.

You curl your body, placing your hand on your ears to try and block out your teacher's voice, but it's as if they're everywhere. They're around and inside you.

"I died because of you!" Aizawa yells, gis voice echoing inside your head. "The nomu didn't kill me, you did! You are a murderer! It's because you're so weak that I died!"

You scream, your body feeling immense pressure as hot tears stream down your face. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" You yell.

"You killed me. You can never be a hero. You are a murderer, you hear me! I murderer!" You open your eyes, your body shaking as you watch his hand about to grab you.

"I'm not a murderer!" You yell, your eyes opening to the sight of a white ceiling. "Y/n! Calm down! It's just a nightmare!" You hear his gruff voice beside you, it always managed to calm you down. As you turn your head to face him, Katsuki can't help but feel his heart break at the sight of your cheeks wet with tears and eyes red and puffy.

"Suki..." You sob, your body immediately being pulled into a warm hug as Katsuki whispers shushes into your ear. His hand strokes your hair as his arms tigten around you. "It's okay, just let it all out. Cry to me. I'm right here."

Your loud sobs and yelling fill the rooms, even alerting some of the nurses but Katsuki motions for them to leave you two alone.

Your heart feels like it's being crushed and it feel difficult to breathe. Despite this, you don't want Katsuki to let you go. You don't want his familiar warmth to leave your side, not now when you're feeling especially vulnerable.

When your sobs quiet down, Katsuki slowly pulls away, looking into your eyes. "Hey, hey, it's okay. I'm here." He shushes, wiping away your tears as his eyes analyze yours.

"You're okay. What made you cry out like that?" He asks, thumb caressing your cheek softly. You place a hand on his wrist, melting into his touch as you closed your eyes, letting your tears fall.

"Aizawa sensei... He... I killed-"

"We heard Y/n was yelling. What's wrong?!" Midnight barges in, making you immediately turn to her. Behind her she has Present Mic and someone else who's wrapped up in bandages.

Your eyes widen, "Aizawa... sensei..." You mutter, the bandaged-up person tilting his head to the side. "Yes? Are you okay, Y/n?"

Tears fill your eyes again, but this time, there's no longer weight on your shoulders or heart and it feels much easier to breathe. You start sobbing once again, Katsuki looking lost and confused as to what he's supposed to do.

"You're not dead!" You sob, "I thought I killed you- hic- because I was too weak!" You cry out, using your knuckles to wipe away your tears only for them to be replaced by new ones.

"I thought I became a murderer-hic-because I was too weak to protect you, and you died because of me!" You don't even notice Aizawa walking up to you. Despite his bandaged state and the casts he has on both arms, he pulls you into a slightly awkward hug. You wrap your arms around his torso, careful not to hurt him with it.

"Why are you carrying such a burden? Why do you have such thoughts, little girl?" Aizawa asks, his tone hurt. "I have these injuries because I chose to protect you, my students. If I ever get hurt, never, and I mean never blame yourself for it."

You bury your face onto his chest, tears rolling at his words. "Heroes go through stuff like these every time. We sacrifice ourselves to protect the weak and also to keep the peace. In your journey to becoming a hero, you will encounter many situations like these, some are even more worse. But just remember my words-" he pushes you softly, looking down at your swollen eyes. "-have courage, have faith on yourself and the people around you. Trust in them to prevail through just like how you will. Remember that we are all strong because we are heroes but that doesn't mean we have to carry all the burden by ourselves. Be good to yourself and let go if you need to. You're only sixteen, it's okay to act like a child sometimes."

You never thought you'd hear those words from your homeroom teacher who always seemed so indifferent, but at the end of the day, he truly does care about his students from the bottom of his heart.

"Good evening, visiting hours ended five minutes ago. Only miss L/n's guardian if allowed to stay with her." A nurse knocks on your open door, catching everyone's attention.

"I'll be her guardian-" Katsuki cuts off Midnight's words, "Not so fast. I'm her guardian."

"None of you are my guardians." You sigh, "It's been a tiring day and I just want you all to rest. Especially you guys, Aizawa sensei and Katsuki." You move to lay on your bed, but Katsuki raises you a questioning brow.

"What do you mean long day? You've been out for two days." Your eyes widen at his words. You turn to look at the teachers and they all giving knowing nods. "Wait- so does that mean-" You point at Katsuki who rolls his eyes, "Yes, dumbass. I've been watching over you this whole time." At the realization of his words, Katsuki turns away to hide his blush and yet again, fails to notice the red tips of his ears.

"Anyway, the doctors say that you'll be discharged tomorrow morning so you can-" You cut of Aizawa, "Finally go back to school!" You sigh, stretching your arms out and then letting out a sigh.

"I was going to say stay home and rest but if that's what you want then I won't stop you. Bakugou." Katsuki turns around, his face and ears no longer flushed and is back to it's natural scowling state. "I'm not sure how or why your parents allowed you to stay here at the hospital but I'm glad at least someone is taking care of her. There are many qualified pros scouting this area especially at night so you two can rest easy."

With one last nod, the teachers all walk away, bidding the two of you good night. The door closes and you reach over to take your phone from the bedside table, unlocking it. Your eyes widen at the sight of forty-seven missed calls from your mom and just as many number of unread text messages.

"Your mom was called by the school about your situation and assured her that you were alright, but I guess that didn't stop her from blowing up your phone." Katsuki says, eyes on the apple he's peeling.

"Sorry about that, I bet you didn't get enough sleep with all the calling." Your eyebrows knit together in cringe as you force out a smile to which Katsuki shakes his head at. "Your mom is probably the one who didn't get any sleep at all. You should call her and ensure to her that you're alright." He points the knife at your phone before returning back to peeling the apple.

You call your mother in facetime and it rings twice before she answers. "Y/n oh my god! Are you alright, baby?! No, don't answer that. I'm on my way there right now-"

"Mom, what do you mean on your way- here in Japan?" Your eyes scan her background, heart falling to your stkmach as you recognize the airport.

"Hold on! Stop, stop! Mom! You have work back there in the states, you can't come to Japan."

"But you're hurt-"

"Mom," You sigh, "Look, I'm sorry for worrying you. But I swear, I'm fine. Just a few bruises and scrapes but what's a hero without scars, am I right?"

Your mom looks like she stopped walking as she sends you a wordied expression to which you smile reassuringly at her. "I'm fine, mom. Don't worry about me. I'll be able to take care of myself."

"But who's taking care of you in the hospital? I'm going there right now and-"

"Mom, even if you did come here now, I'll be discharged by the time you get here. Plus-" you look at Katsuki who's busy slicing the apples into little slices, designing them to look like bunnies. "-Someone's already taking care of me here. I'll be fine."

Your mother sighs, defeated as you watch her turn around. "Just- stay safe okay? I don't have anyone else."

"I know, mom. I love you so much."

"I love you more, my baby girl."

The two of you pucker your lips for a kiss before ending the call. You lean your back onto your now inclined bed, looking down at the bunny slice Katsuki is offering you. He still has that glare in his eyes, but if you look into them even more, they're much more softer. You take the slice from his fingers, letting out a soft thank you before taking a bite.

"When you blamed yourself a while ago." He starts, making you flinch at the topic. "Don't do that again."

"Suki-"

He slams the knife onto the table, "Please. It's not your fault. Even the strongest people have weaknesses. Don't put all the weight on yourself, please."

Your eyes widen at how vulnerable his voice sounds right now. You reach over, placing a hand on his soft hair. You smile softly, "Alright. I'm sorry I did that. I promise to rely on you more."

Katsuki looks up at you, eyes glassy and face flushing. "I never said you needed to rely on m-"

"I wanna look at the stars." You cut him off quickly, hopping off your bed to saunter towards the window. You push the glass window open, leaning in and taking a deep breath of the cold night air, smiling. You look up at the stars, wishing you had access to the rooftop since the view would be better up there.

"You know, we are at the twenty fifth floor of the hospital." Katsuki says, folding the fluffy blanket that you didn't even realize you were using. You don't think it's yours given that you've never seen it before. Was it Katsuki's?

"What are you saying?" You ask, letting him put on a sweater on you. Again, this piece of warm clothing wasn't yours as well. But by the sweet caramel scent it gave off, you come to a conclusion that this belonged to the angry blond gremlin who is currently standing on the window why the hell is he standing on the window?!

"Bakugou! Are you crazy?! Get off the window now!" You yell, pulling at his pants. "Oh stop being a square." He pushes the warm blanket on you, pulling you with him off the window and out of the hospital room. Before you let out a scream, he uses his quirk to push you two upwards, his hand gripping your sides tightly as your feet land on the cemented rooftop of the hospital.

At the notice of you no longer in the doorstep of death, you resort to hitting Katsuki's arm, letting your mouth run as you lecture him about how dangerous that act was. He responds to your reprimanding with a loud, milky, genuine laugh. Your hand comes to a hault as well as your mouth and you just stand there, awestruck at how handsome Katsuki actually looks when he's smiling.

You place a closed hand on your chest, feeling as your heart thumps against it vigorously. Ah, there it was again. The butterflies in your stomach that made your body feel lighter than it usually felt and your drying throat as well as your sweating palms.

"Come on, I find stargazing relaxing." He says, the usual angry tone of his voice gone, catching you off guard. He wraps his hand around your wrist softly, pulling you towards the center of the rooftop. He places the soft blanket on the ground, folding it once so it isn't too thin before laying down, patting the empty space for you. You mirror his actions, laying down beside him as you gazed up at the stars.

"You ever wonder what the alternative universe us are like?" You ask, eyes staring up at the twinkling stars as Katsuki raises a brow, turning his head towards you. "You believe in that bullshit?" He chuckles, making you gasp. "Don't call it bullshit! What else are the stars for??"

Katsuki presses his lips together to stop his laughter, "I don't know~ What are they for?" He asks you, tone sarcastic and pushing you off the edge. "To tell us about the future, and to show us how many other worlds are there other than ours!"

Katsuki can no longer hold in his laughter, clutching his stomach as he laughs his heart out. You narrow your eyes at him, pouting and crossing your arms against your chest. "Let me guess, let me guess." Katsuki wipes a tear away, "You also believe in the red string of fate?"

"How could you not believe it when-" You stop yourself from continuing your words. How could you not believe it when it caused the two of us to meet?

"When what? Come on, tell me! I promise not to laugh." You turn away, sitting up. Katsuki is still laughing as he follows you, taking your hand in his. "What else do I not know about you?" He asks, curling his four fingers with yours as he stands his thumb up, preparing for a thumb wrestle. You follow his actions and the two of you start the game. "I can't swim." You start.

"I had a pet goldfish but it died after a week." Katsuki chuckles.

"I only ever had two friends growing up- they were my mother's bodyguards. Eliot and Andrew."

"I like to cook."

"I still have my stuffed toys from when I was young."

"I tried to learn how to drive but after almost running over a cat, I swore never to drive again."

"I was pretty popular in middle school."

You chuckle, "I was bullied in middle school."

Katsuki stops moving his thumb, allowing you to pin his down. Your face brightens up as you smile, "I win!" You look up at him, smile almost immediately falling at the sight of his grin expression.

His head drops, covering up his eyes. "Hey, what happened? Did I say something wrong? Come on Suki, talk to me."

"I'm- Do you hate bullies?" He asks, his head still hanging.

"Well, hate is a strong word..." You look up at the stars, as if they were going to give you the right word you were looking for. "But I dislike them. What's the point of putting down someone especially when they've done nothing wrong to you? I don't use the word hate because I don't want to use it incorrectly, but to me bullies are sometimes just misunderstood or something. They have that superiority complex and I like to think that they have it because of their past that we don't know about or the thoughts they have in their heads."

You feel him padding his thumb over your hand. "Hey, you okay?" You ask, cupping his jaw to make him look uo at you. The look in his eyes, takes you aback- he looks so sad and regretful which only stirrs up more questions in your head.

"You're so good. You're such a good person, Y/n." His words cause you to furrow your brows in confusion. What was going on inside his head?

He drops his head to your shoulder, "You're an angel, Y/n. People are so lucky to have you in their lives."

You don't even think twice before the words leave uour mouth. "Even you?"

It takes him a few moments to respond and you begin to think that you made a mistake asking him that, but you feel him nod on your shoulder. "Especially me."

Can I have a Rock Lee x Reader fic? I loved your previous one. Can I have a villager who's crushing hard on him? They're shy and only know Lee from seeing him around. So they try to ask around to see what kind of person/things they like. Bonus points if someone gets judgy over their choice of men and reader goes off on them. And can it be a happy/cute ending? Ty

You have no idea how happy it makes me to hear that people still find and read my first Rock Lee fic. It isn’t my proudest work, but to see others still enjoying it (and it being one of the (surprisingly) more popular works I have) really touches me. 😊

Fandom: Naruto

Character: Rock Lee

A/N: Gif below is an accurate depiction of yours truly right now.

It all started with a curiosity, like with so many things in life. An unusual encounter, a pique of your interest, a flame of wanting to know more.

“Excuse me, but I believe this is yours?” a polite voice piped up from behind you. The market had been especially busy that day, making it hard to keep track of your many bags along with the smaller items on your person. A tall male approached you, his hair cut into an unusual bowlcut that made him appear more youthful than he probably was, in his hand laid your wallet.

“Oh, thank you so much!” you gasped, a colour dusting your cheeks in embarrassment. How fortunate you had been that the man was so honest to return it. Taking it from him you wanted to say more, thinking of a reward for his chivalry.

“Lee! Hurry up!” a voice took away the male called Lee, his unusual appearance disappearing into the crowd once more. However, before doing so he flashed you one more smile, his hand going up in the air.

“Don’t worry about it. Hidden Leaf’s number one youth, Rock Lee is at your service!”

You could have sworn that there was a shine coming off his teeth as he striked a pose.

You thought of him for the rest of the day, curious as to who he was as a person and what he did.

And once you had been made aware of the male you suddenly found him everywhere. The following day, on your way to work you found Lee hanging upside down, hands balancing dangerously on two poles as he made his way down the streets.

“Ah, that Rock Lee,” the lady next door sighed delighted, her hands on her hips as she watched the spectacle. Unable to help yourself you turned towards her, curiosity clear in your voice as you inquired about the male.

“The ninja of Konoha are a cheerful bunch, but Rock Lee definitely stands out the most as unusual,” she had responded. A statement to which you could agree, but for different reasons entirely.

“A real youth, one who never gives up despite all,” the man from the ramenstand laughed when you asked him why Lee walked all these laps in punishment. You learned there that it was far from a punishment for the ninja. An even stranger notion, for whatever strain he put through his body was definitely torture for anyone else.

However, as you observed the male more often and saw him come and go, passing by in even weirder training regimes, you noted that he was more than a training junk. Despite his strange appearance you noted that Lee was exceptionally polite, treating everyone ---even those who wronged him--- like a friend, his openness allowing for all to find a place with him. His encouragement was surprisingly infectious as well, along with his enthusiasm, though there were only few who could actually keep up.

“There Lee goes again, I wonder what he lost this time,” you grinned, clearly enjoying yourself watching the hardworking man. This time he had resolved himself to walk on all fours, bended backwards and with the weights placed on top of his stomach. Training your eyes on him you fiddled with the straw of your smoothie, green in colour and packed with nutrients. The type that you had seen Lee order on the regular.

“He is so weird,” your friend piped up, eyes staring at the male in bewilderment. “Doesn’t he ever feel mortified? I feel embarrassed for him,” your friend continued with a deep sigh, eyes averting from his figure, unable to stand it for any longer.

“With that suit on?” another friend clicked their tongue, a scoff escaping their lips. “No, I don’t think he knows any shame.”

You clenched your fist, an irritation bubbling up as you found yourself disagreeing.

“[Name] seems to like him especially,” the last one of your friends pointed out, a finger poking at your forehead. “Always watching him and asking these weird personal questions.”

It wasn’t maliciously meant, but you throw your head up all the same, startling your friends.

“I do like him. A lot,” you stated loudly. “I think Rock Lee is a great person and very honourable,” you continued on, your voice growing more confident as you spoke, a pride swelling in your chest that was bursting at its seams as you were unable to stop. “He is hardworking, determined, even when all odds are against him. His enthusiasm is infectious and energises me, even when I feel dull and unconfident, because I know he would never back off either even on his bad days,” you purse your lips, your mind trying to look for more ways to describe what he meant to you.

“He makes me want to be a better person. Even if we aren’t friends and he doesn’t know me,” you concluded, suddenly feeling shy as you realised that the shop had grown quiet.

“That was kinda embarrassing to listen to,” a clear voice spoke from behind you. Whisking around your cheeks flared bright red, contrasting the green figure that stood in front of you, face equally as red.

“It doesn’t upset me, however,” Lee spoke up, eyes avoiding yours as he rubbed the back of his head. It was a first time for you to see him so taken aback and shy, but you figured that anyone would feel so after hearing a whole oration dedicated to them.

Chuckling to himself Rock Lee quickly regained himself, his shoulders straightening up as a gentle smile crossed his features. “I think it was really cool, though!” he beamed at you, his vigour returning once more before another blush creeped up. “E-even if it was about m--- I mean, it was really cool how you stood up for me! Yeah, that is what I meant to say!”

Determined eyes met shy ones, another inspiration instilled as you felt your breath slowly return.

“I would love to get to know you better as well. Someone who can speak so passionately surely is a person worth being around!” Lee exclaimed, taking your breath away once more as you weren’t sure how to respond.

Luckily your friends knew how.

Photo Credits:

Rie (sungho) x (female) reader, fluff, slice of life, semi-angsty (?)

appearances of other OnlyOneOf and Dreamcatcher members will occur

hey so I rolled a wheel on who to write a fanfic first and got rie plus picked out a prompt to write from

warnings: alcohol, getting drunk; in this fic is PG-13, some light cursing occasionally, super tiny mention of smut in description beginning and that’s all;

btw i’m pretty sarcastic, there’s sarcasm thrown here and there, hope you enjoy :D

This is my first time sharing my writing on a public platform. As a writer, I always appreciate constructive criticism. Feel free to leave feedback in the comments if you have anything to say. Thank you in advance for reading as well

Also, please DO NOT repost my work anywhere without my permission or plagiarize.

Description: your neighbor, sungho, from the day you've moved in has kept you up countless nights with their significant other. dancing, muffled long conversations, and amongst other noises you wished you could wipe from memory. one day it suddenly stops. those days become months.

─────────────────

Your neighbor, Sungho, from the day you've moved in has kept you up countless nights with their significant other. Dancing, muffled long conversations, and amongst other noises you wished you could wipe from memory. One day it suddenly stops. These days become months. Now, you couldn't help but to be concerned.

Sungho isn't a bad neighbor. You recall complaining to him at some point, amidst trying to focus on a report you had to write up for work, and he apologized for the noise. Many times. He seemed embarrassed, never realizing how thin the walls were in the apartment building, and promised to keep the noise levels down. These promises would last only about a week. Their significant other was quite the complete opposite of Sungho, a loud individual. From what you were aware, the two didn't live together. His significant other would come over daily to stay or visit.

As much as they were loud, they didn't seem to like you either. Looks of disdain thrown whenever you happen to cross them in the hallway, being in the same elevator cart, or when Sungho was trying to be a good neighbor by greeting you. They would pull him away immediately, putting his attention back on them. Sometimes you thought that they were being loud on purpose, knowing that you were next door, and very well aware of the complaints. The reason why? You had no idea. The best guess you could come up with was that they saw you as a threat to their relationship. Which was ridiculous. You hardly knew the male nor could the both of you call each other friends.

Sometimes Sungho left fruits or drinks at your door with little notes of apologies for their rowdiness. And for their significant other's behavior. For the most part, you bared through it or simply did all your work within the hours at your office now and prayed that tiredness would consume you once you hit your bed, blocking out any disturbances.

So, life goes on.

One weekend, you just happened to get home from going out with your friends. It was late, past midnight. You heard arguing through the walls between Sungho and their significant other.

"You're always like this, Sungho!"

Immediately, you felt very uncomfortable entering your apartment. It wasn't something you wanted to hear or should be hearing. Not that you could help it either since you lived next door. You backed yourself outside, considering going to the balcony on the floor for a bit. Stepping back outside of your door, their argument becomes muffled.

Why couldn't the landlord just keep the damn wall consistency the same?

Suddenly, Sungho's door flies open followed by their significant other storming out. You jump up out of surprise, the noise scaring you. They're heading down the hallway, to the elevators, without looking back. Sungho appears at his door not too long after, holding it open.

"Wait-" he calls out to them, his voice faltering.

The male notices you then, staring with wide eyes at him. At that moment, you were able to get a full picture of his current position. The hurt in his eyes.

"Oh...y/n. Are you here to complain about the noise again? I'm really sorry-"

"Uh, no! No, not at all. See, I just was returning home now. Don't worry about it," you said, awkwardly blinking a few times, reaching to grab for your keys from your bag once again.

"Um, I'm heading inside now! Okay, bye!"

You immediately opened your door again, rushing, running into your living room. The door shuts behind automatically and you let out a sigh of relief. You felt bad for suddenly running away, but you weren't about to ask or give relationship advice if Sungho wasn't asking for it. Besides, what if it was only a lover's quarrel?

They'll probably make up soon. Talk about a rough night…

Then the realization set in. The apartment would be definitely quiet for at least another day. A smile rises to your face.

What a horrible thing to be happy over...after seeing your neighbor fight with their significant other. Then again, they weren't all that nice to me.

You shrugged, waving the events aside, calling it a night, enjoying the peaceful silence...only with the slight remaining, lingering tension in the air. After you showered, brushed your teeth, and changed into pajamas, you immediately laid down on your bed. Pulling the covers over, you found yourself thinking. Staring up to the ceiling of your room in the dark.

That argument sounded bad though...ugh. None of your business, y/n. Go to sleep. They'll probably be fine tomorrow…

─────────────────

Define the term "fine".

The next day, as you predicted, was quiet. That you could hear a pin drop from down the hallway. You enjoyed it, a Sunday afternoon peace. It allowed you to catch up on work, eat, watch T.V, write poetry...overall without any disturbances. Sungho, your neighbor, was long forgotten from your mind.

The thing is, it goes on for the next week. You weren't worried about it at all because you were swamped with work. The next reports and presentations came with close deadlines. The silence was appreciated, allowing you to focus; you got lost in piles of work and many cups of coffee.

Worry about your neighbor only returned on the brief encounters when the both of you were heading to work in the mornings. Sungho still greeted you, but only with a brief nod and face expressionless. They would walk ahead first, not bothering to see even if you returned the greeting or not. Sometimes you heard him leaving earlier than you and now you couldn't help but to wonder what his occupation was.

The week turns into two and three. He stops greeting you at some point, or maybe he wasn't very aware of his surroundings; his whole aura was different. Sungho usually would at least do his hair before going out and dress somewhat decently. Now it was always a mess, his bangs left down to cover his eyes, matching with black attire. You saw him up close in his current condition when you were returning to the apartment building one afternoon. The male had collided into you, by accident. Turning around immediately on the impact, once you had regained your balance, you're faced with eyes that were written with sleepless nights, dark circles prominent. At least, this time, he mumbles an apology before moving on.

By the time it reaches the end of the month, your workload becomes lighter for the year, you find more time thinking about the current situation of your neighbor. You called up one of your best friends at your workplace one night. It wasn't the first time you discussed your neighbor with them.

"Yoojung, it's the end of the month. I haven't seen his significant other in awhile. As much as I enjoy the silence, I hate seeing Sungho this dead," you said, a hand gripping onto the balcony railing out of nervousness.

“Note check. You don’t even know the guy. Why exactly are you so worried?” Yoojung on the other end replies.

Your friend had a point. Why were you worried?

“Well…I don’t have an answer, actually. I don’t know why I’m worried. Can’t I just be a good neighbor?” you replied.

“It’s none of your business, y/n. Looking at reality. But if you’re so worried, go knock on his door and talk to him. Even if it’s just a hello. Didn’t he leave you fruits before? You can do that in return if you’re so curious,” Yoojung suggested, not sounding all that interested.

“Anyways, you’re coming to the group outing for dinner next week right? On Saturday? Please tell me you didn’t forget or you plan on cancelling. We hardly ever get a chance for everyone to come together again.”

“Alright, thanks so much for the advice...I guess...and keep your pants on, Yoojung. Of course I’m coming. Good night,” you scowled at him.

You hung up the phone then, not giving a chance for the other to say his goodbye. As much as he was your best friend, he could be a pain in the ass. Turning around, you exited out the balcony to return back to your apartment for the day.

So much for calling it a night.

Once you make it back, you’re greeted with Sungho at your door, hunched over, using an arm to keep his weight up against the wall. First thought that came to mind: he’s unwell and he came to ask you for help? You immediately approach the male, only to be hit by a smell of alcohol and you jolt back. The second thought you had, only confirmed: he’s drunk.

“Sungho?! Are you okay?” you asked nervously, tapping his shoulder lightly.

The male looks up to you, quite confused.

“y/n? Oh. Yeah...I’m fine. Just trying to get into my apartment...but the key.... doesn’t seem to fit…” Sungho said, words spoken slowly as he tries to stand upright.

“Did...the landlord change the locks?”

“No, no. The landlord didn’t. You’re at the wrong apartment, this one is mine. Uh, do you need help?” you said, raising an eyebrow at him.

“Ah...well, that makes...sense now,” Sungho said, a drunk written smile appearing on his face.

“No, it’s okay...I’m always disturbing you... I’m really sorry...Have...a good night, y/n.”

It’s the first time you’ve seen him smile in such a long time. Of course, it only happens to be when he’s not sober. Also, you’re very aware that drunk people do need help but always deny it. You watch as he turns around, folding your arms and counting down in your head.

3... 2...1

The male collapses on the ground, completely knocked out from the alcohol in his system. You blew up at your hair, huffing then, staring down at his figure on the ground.

This night just got a whole lot longer.

ONLY PROCEED IF YOU WANT SPOILERS AKA PARTLY FINISHED FICS!

ByDay but Mostly at Night

“I..I’ve never done this before.” He stutters scootinglower in his bed.

His eyes shifting around his room like he might becaught.

“Its okay .We can take it slow, real slow. How aboutyou tell me your name to start.”

Her voice is low, sultry and dripping with sex, itmakes him feel warm.

“It’s Fi-Damon, Damon.” He rushes out, he’s not surehow this works but he figures alias are probably often used, who wants to givetheir real name to a phone sex operator?

“Damon, I like that.” He can hear the smile in hervoice and it soothes him. “You can call me whatever you like.”

“I’d be better with a name,” he admits.

“Okay, you can call me, Sally.”

“Sally.” He echoes back to her, it feels funny, butright at the same time as it rolls off his tongue.

“Mhm, why don’t you start off by telling me why youcalled.” her voice is low and oh so inviting and he can’t help but let thewords tumble out.

“Just, busy..I guess. I work a lot, not really thetype to date just to date, or have meaningless hookups.” He’s shocked that he’stelling this complete stranger the truth and what’s more shocking is that he’snot that shocked. Maybe it’s the fact that he has no idea who she is, or thatthey never, ever will talk after this, and it’s not like he’d see her down atthe local, she was just a voice, a soothing voice.

“Ah, I see.” She murmurs.

“See what?” he asks, she speaks like she has himfigured out, and he doesn’t even have him figured out.

“You’re protective of your heart. You want the realthing.”

He make a sort of strangled scoff, only because she’sright, this girl he’s been talking to for all of five minutes has himcompletely pegged.

“I get it, you’re protecting yourself, but even thoughsomething might not last, think of all the things you’ll have learned. Don’thide away because you’re afraid.”

If he wasn’t afraid he wouldn’t have made this phonecall. So that part was true.

“Still there?”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m here.” He replies.

“Just imagine, someone cuddling up next you in the morning,your stiff cock pressing against them, they wiggle a little and you groan withhow good it feels.”

He whimpers low in his throat because that IS hisfavorite way to wake up.

“I’ll let you in on a little secret, we like it, wescoot and wiggle back for a reason, we love to feel your warm hard cock againstus.”

“What do you normally do when you’re in that position?”She asks.

He gulps hard, “I-I slide my hand up to cup herbreasts, feeling the nipple harden under my touch.”

“Do you pinch or squeeze?”

“Definitely pinch.”

“Mm, it’s the best.” She sighs, “I like it real hard,make me moan.”

“Yeah,” he breathes heavily.

“Then I guide your hand between my thighs…”

“You’re wet.” He says almost sleepily his hand is slippingunder his boxers.

“So wet, you’re fingers find me and rub and rub myclit, while pushing your cock so it’s digging into my ass, desperate to beburied inside me.”

He groans as he strokes himself, she whimpers, “I’m soclose.”

“But right before you push me over the edge, I stopyou, wanting you to be inside me so we come together.”

“Top?” she asks through her ragged breaths.

“Top-top.” He mumbles.

“I straddle you, rubbing myself against you, and youthrust up.” Just as she says it he thrusts up into his hand.

“I free your cock, oh god you’re throbbing and sofucking warm. It makes me wet, I’m so wet.” She moans.

“You slip inside me effortlessly. Deep, you’re sodeep, Damon.” She moans loudly.

He grunts as he slides his hand faster up and down hiscock, “Slow.” He whispers.

“Mmm, it so good.” She hums low. “Grinding againstyou, ahh, oh—fuck..it’s so good.”

“Harder, please, Damon I need it harder.” He grunts inresponse.

“Scream.” He tells her as he speeds up his hand.

“Oh god! Yes! Yes!” she moans along with a string ofprofanities.

“So good.” He says strangled. “Fuck.”

Her moans are growing, “Come in me!” she shouts.

He comes all over his hand with a deep grunt.

Their breathing is ragged and then they sighsimultaneously, he clears his throat the reality setting back in, “That wasgood.” She says, her voice hoarse.

“Yeah.” He replies soft and shy.

“Call back anytime, yeah?”

“Sure,” he says not knowing if he really means it.

“Don’t be afraid,” she says before the line goes dead.

He stays in his position a bit longer until he decidesto get up and shower.

PerfectStranger

As the lift doors shut Finn takes the time to lookover his appearance in the mirrored doors. Hotels were standard, it was veryuncommon for an encounter to happen anywhere else. Once or twice it was at ahome, but it would cost. He never wanted to enter anyone’s sanctum, only wantedto do his job. He was an employee, a hired assistant, and assist he would, inwhatever need the woman desired. It was the standard dinner first, full ofhushed voices and blushed cheeks, to get a feel of how things would go, then itwas up to the room.

After working for some time he found not all of thesewomen were desperate, in the sense they couldn’t find a man to do the jobproperly. Although men was the issue, it was the sheer lack of chivalry theyexpressed, the way women spoke about all that’s lacking in their stories waseye opening. These women wanted nothing more than to be desired, wanted,adored, and that’s where he would come in, for a price. His first job was nerveracking, but she was shy and soft spoken, and when it was all over with he leftwith a lighter heart and the belief that he helped her, helped Izzy.

He buttoned and unbuttoned the top button of his shirtrepeatedly unsure of which was better suited but before he could pop the buttonopen once more the lift stopped and the doors opened, an older attractive womanstepping inside. She was taller than him with her heels on and a form fittingdress that hugged tightly around her cleavage. He took a side step allowingroom for her. She reached over pressing a button.

He smiled and bowed his head politely at her, shereturned with a seductive smile, “Oh, I see you’re going up?” she purred.

“Yes.” He replied, with a nod.

“Shame, I wanted to go…down.”

His mouth pulled up into the approximation of a smilethen the lift dinged after going up one floor and the doors opened, “Goodnight.”He bowed his head slightly and stepped out into the hall.

It was strange this client didn’t want to have dinnerfirst, that was normally the regulars, and he would usually insist upon it. Ithelps to ease into things, get a feel for the person, but upon the initialcall, where guidelines and things are discussed, the gentleness of her voice,the fine hint of worriedness had him agreeing to meet in her suite.

Upon walking up to the door of the suite he unbuttonedthe top button of his crisp white shirt, loosening the collars. He ran hisfingers lightly through his perfectly quaffed hair, and tugged on his blazerbefore knocking on the door. Waiting a moment he heard footsteps and a woman’svoice, “Oh, bollocks!” He let out a small breathy laugh through his nose as sheyelled to wait a moment.

The door opened and he tilted his head examining her,when he met her eyes he smiled up at her through his lashes, “Rachel?”

“Yeah, that’s me, but it’s Rae…you can call me Rae.”she stammered, with pinch blushed cheeks.

“It’s lovely to meet you, Rae. I’m Finn.”

She let out a nervous laugh, “Uh, Come in! I mean,please do come in.” she stepped aside as she opened the door allowing him to enterthe massive suite.

He stepped in taking in the elegance of the suite, amass of bay windows to show lights of the city twinkling in the distance.Turning around he took a step towards her, “Spectacular view.”

“Oh, the city, yeah.” She mumbled taking a step backfrom him. “I..uh..took the liberty of ordering some room service, I’m not surewhat you would’ve liked so I just made a few selections.”

“That is very thoughtful of you.” Finn spoke as heturned to face her. Her smile was shaky.

“Why-why don’t we have a seat.” She stepped aroundhim. He turned and followed her to the small sofa. On the coffee table therewas a few plates laid out. She sat in the middle of the sofa, and thought hedidn’t want to be too brash, he needed to let her know that he wanted to bethere.

He sat next to her, their bodies touching from theirshoulders to their calves, “Are you hungry?” he murmured.

“Oh, no-no…I’m fine.” She smiled weakly. “I’ll just…”she trailed off as she stood to move around the far side of the coffee table tosit on the chaise.

Smiling softly at her he hoped to encourage her alittle, she was nervous. Her tick was wringing her hands together.

“Are you hungry?” she asked, with a hopeful look.

“Not particularly, no.”

“Well, then I guess we should discuss ourarrangement.”

“If you’d like.” He responded, it was normal for newclients to want to rehash the details of their arrangement.

“I understand your cost perfectly, well. But you seethe nature of this is not about sex.”

He furrowed his eyebrows curiously, and she continued,“It’s about intimacy.”

“Intimacy?”

“Yes. You see Finn, well, to put it plainly, I want tohire you, for the next month and a half.”

“Six weeks?”

“Yes. Now, I understand you may have other clients butI am willing to pay you generously if you agree to this.”

He sat up straighter, “Explain to me what you want,exactly.”

She smiled shyly and looked down to her wringinghands, “The thing is…” she began, “if I can speak candidly…This isn’t me.”

Looking up at him she laughed humorlessly and shookher head, “The way I’m talking, hell the way I’ve dressed, not me. I cuss likea sailor.”

He couldn’t help but smirk at that, “Look, I’m just asimple girl who got lucky when her uncle died and left her a business shedidn’t know existed and a ton of money. So, I had to put on, this charadebasically, to show I could handle the pressure. But now, I’m stepping down andletting my good friend and partner handle everything, he’s much better atbusiness than I am.” She shrugged.

“And,” he pushed.

“And…” she smirked, her cheeks blushing, “Well,there’s this guy. There always is isn’t there.” She laughed lightly. “He’s anassistant to someone in the office and well, I like him, and turns out he likesme, but he’s away on business with, Mark, his boss at the moment.”

“Right,” Finn said to urge her to keep talking.

“Well, when he returns he wants to take me on a properdate.”

“That’s sounds, lovely.” Finn responds, he has yet tosee where he comes in.

“Yeah, it does, it really does, except…”

“What?”

“Well, I’ve never exactly dated anyone before.” Shemumbles, but he hears her plain as day.

He opens his mouth to speak but she continues, “Never,held hands, never cuddled, no real kissing, nothing basically, I’m a 25 year oldvirgin for Christ sake.”

She sighs and her shoulders slump, “I just I don’tknow how to react to that type of stuff, or I’m afraid of how I will react, andif this goes somewhere with, Seth, that’s his name, then I don’t want to make atwat of myself, by flinching because he put his arm around me or something.”

When she looks back up with him her eyes are shinywith hope but also sad, and he feels poke at his heart for her, “When do Istart?”

Her smile is impossibly bright, “Are you sure?”

“Yes,” he’d have to clear his schedule which washeavily booked but something told him, to help her, he wanted to help her.

“Thank you. Shall we talk cost? I’m willing to pay youa hundred for the six weeks, does that sound fair, or do you have a counter?”

It felt like his tongue slid down his throat he’s sochoked, he never would have ever guessed that’s how much she would be willingto pay him.

“That’s…a very generous offer.” He stammers.

A slow smile spread across her face, “You come highlyrecommended.” She says softly, then, “So its settled, yes?”

“Yes.” He asserts.

“Perfect, we can start tomorrow. Be here about noon?”

He nods, “Are you hungry now, we can eat.”

He nods again, because now he does need a littlesomething to settle his stomach.
