undead x anzu thoughts... mostly abt their first time/general hcs
NSFW under cut~
ReiAnzu
does not take long for the two to fuck for the first time. listen. these are the only ones i can imagine fucking without even dating first. they probably started off as friends with benefits actually.
it took anzu being unable to sleep after finish editing a proposal and rei being around to offer to possibly help her relax to get her to melt. rei is sappy and remembers this fondly because it was a full moon so he had more energy than usual
after that, they fuck more often than not. usually under the same circumstances as their first time. anzu hates to admit how addicted she got to his dick, but it got to the point where they basically pavloved each other to start getting horny as soon as midnight rolls around.
they had to stop for a bit when it got to that point. and now they're more normal abt how often they fuck. rei constantly teases her about the previous phase though
it's always sensual and intimate. feather light kisses from rei and anzu holding his hands to pull him close. it's almost ritualistic tbh
rei is part of the tiddy enjoyers (some of his stories guys...) and it makes anzu so blushy. he's also a fan of having her suck on his nipples. he teases her saying that he might start producing milk if she keeps it up- even if it's his idea- omg femstars rei would go so good with this oough...
they have a little game where anzu will cockwarm rei until she's done with whatever paper work she has. first to break is the loser. theres no actual winner or loser though sometimes they use this to determine who'll pick what they eat for dinner that night. anzu has gotten incredibly good at keeping a straight face while rei ruts into her
out of everyone in this list, they are by far the kinkiest pairing. lots of general bdsm and wax play specifically happening
KaoAnzu
coffin sex doesn't happen much but it's happened. neither of them really enjoy it
expensive looking couple aesthetic ngl
their first time has to be after they start dating, but it's relatively quick compared to the others.
it's probably after a string of dates. one time after dinner, they're a little more touchy than usual and kaoru whisks her away to a hotel
kaoru is the one that takes the lead the first time, acting like the more experienced one. even though they're both essentially starting from the same base. but...
in actuality, their first time is very soft and cute. anzu and kaoru explore each other's bodies with care and love. they both praise and kiss each other lots. kaoru teared up a little but he denies it
after that- he does not realize how often anzu gets horny until later since she hides it. it's only after he's caught her avoiding him after a live, flush faced and whiny, that he realizes anzu might be needier than he thought
promises to make up for all the times he hasn't noticed and god does he keep his word.
they both become masters at quickies. anzu usually does not get horny during work but sometimes she's just frustrated. and kaoru's idol activities are usually at night when she's the most needy so it's a skill they possess now
anzu tops less than you think because kaoru wants her to take it easy and for her to relax after a long day of work.
but given how much she loves work... he decides to use that side of her for something self indulgent. he orders her around in bed sometimes, but nothing ever too difficult. just things she might need to put in a little effort for. why does he do this? so he can see that bright smile of hers when he praises anzu for a job well done~!
light dom/sub dynamics might end up bleeding through to non-sexual scenarios when it's just the two of them
kaoru dotes on anzu so much during aftercare it's so cute
"subtley" gifts her lingerie from time to time because he likes seeing her dolled up
KogaAnzu
takes the longest out of every UNDEAD pairing to fuck. not because he doesn't want to but because he forgot it was like a thing people do. it'll be months into dating anzu and he's jacking off and suddenly he's like. "wait i could just ask anzu if she wants to fuck."
koga gets so fucking embarrassed asking if anzu if she wants to do it. yet he's super blunt about asking. what's the point of sugar coating it? anzu thinks its very funny though
he'd be scared of hurting her the first time they have sex so he spends an absurd amount of time prepping her- aka anzu gets overstimulated even before koga even sticks his dick in. she's not complaining~
okay so anzu did not really get the whole alpha/omega stuff before, but after koga growls in her ear it unlocks something in her
after that she encourages him to be more rough with her and that she can take it. koga is very hesitant-
what ends up happening is anzu essentially trains him to be the perfect feral dom. she does it by winding him up and then having him blow off that steam on her
sometimes she takes control though if koga has had a particularly long day. he loves it when she tells him what a good boy he is while riding him
breeding kink is STRONG here. not because either of them want kids but because koga can't help but want to fill her hole with cum. it just feels nice
anzu's pleasure always comes first though. koga likes to make sure she comes at least twice before he's done with her.
anzu has given koga a blowjob in the band club room and honestly it was some of the best head he has ever gotten because of the thrill of getting caught. he'd never tell anzu this
speaking of things he would never tell anzu: how much he'd want to try having a threesome. he'd only want to do it with the rest of UNDEAD or mao
AdoAnzu
their first time is after they start dating, initiated by anzu. i imagine at least a month in
anzu's size kink and thirst for muscley men ruins any sort of self control in her and she lacks any ability to hide how much she wants him. so when they both go to the gym and she sees him lift his shirt to wipe his sweat right after he deadlifts plates twice her weight- girlie cannot focus on her execises. she wants a different form of cardio
poor adonis- like koga- is worried about hurting her but anzu insists that she'll be fine and she can take it. this doesn't convince adonis whatsoever
he makes her wait until they get home. he is very gentle and takes his time learning what he should do. anzu instructs him nicely through everything since this is a big step for both of them. he is very eager to eat her out as prep though
anzu gets overstimulated even before someone actually fucks her part 2
adonis peppers her face with kisses while they fuck and anzu is too blissed out to really register anything else. adonis thinks she looks the cutest like this
he does that thing where he presses his hand over anzu's lower abdomen while they fuck and she's whimpering and moaning all pretty
he now gets the whole size kink thing in that moment
as soon as anzu recovers from the first round she's begging adonis for more
ive said this before somewhere, but hear me out. adonis knows sign language (forgot which story it's mentioned but ik he uses sign in one of them.) now knowing that anzu likes being fucked beyond comprehension, he teaches her basic signs so she can still communicate when her voice is hoarse from moaning or if she's too shy to verbalize whatever during sex
he tries very hard to meet her requests to be rough, but he can't bring himself to be as rough as she wants right away
from then on, anzu slowly tries showing him it's okay to be rough
given how stoic he appears, she often tries teasing him over text to see if it'll illicit a reaction. she likes sending him pictures or videos of her touching herself- or even audio notes of her moaning his name
adonis saves all of them to a folder on his phone it's mixed in with just regular photos of her though so he has to be careful

Tumblr media
summary: the kind of gift(s) you receive from your special someone at Ensemble Square! tags: established relationship, fluff, slightly suggestive at some points, gn!reader - you/your pronouns characters: the main cast, teachers, and anzu! a/n: I wanted to post something for Valentines, so here's a little headcanon sort of thing! If a character's name is in bold+italics that means I just think that's something they'd definitely do. I see other people do it with these types of post so why not :)
Something to Eat
(Purchased) Chocolates
It’s a classic, right? You’re their valentine, so you’re definitely getting Valentine's Day chocolate - there will be no objections! It’s something they picked out with your tastes in mind, even if you’re not the biggest sweets fan, they want to participate in the holiday festivities with you!
Aira | Chiaki | Eichi | HiMERU | Hinata | Hiyori | Hokuto | Izumi | Jin | Kaoru | Kohaku | Mao | Midori | Ritsu | Shinobu | Sora | Tori | Tsukasa
Something Homemade
Chocolate, cookies, maybe even a cake… or are sweets not your thing? No matter what your tastes are, they wanted to make you something with their own hands! While it might not be as tasty as something bought at the store, they wanted you to taste all the love and effort they wanted to put into this little gift for you!
Adonis | Anzu | Hajime | Hinata | Kuro | Madara | Mika | Natsume | Niki | Shu | Tomoya
Something to Wear
Purchased Jewelry/Clothing
It had caught their eye in the store window one day… and that night, they just couldn’t get it out of their mind. The way the piece would compliment your skin… it was meant to be yours. So they purchased it, made sure to wrap the box with care, so that you knew exactly how much thought went into this gift. The price doesn’t matter - you’re worth whatever it cost, and then some.
Akiomi | Arashi | Eichi | Hiiro | HiMERU | Hiyori | Izumi | Kaoru | Keito | Makoto | Mao | Tetora | Tori | Tsukasa | Yuzuru
Handmade Jewelry/Clothes
It could be a little Kandi Bracelet with beads that match your favorite colors, a knit hat to keep you warm for the rest of the winter, or maybe even an ornate pendant with a tumbled stone picked to specifically match your eyes. No matter what, it was made both with love and you specifically in mind. The joy of gift giving comes from the idea that you’ve gotten a piece of art that exists for no one but you - a little sign of just what you make them feel.
Anzu | Arashi | Hajime | Hokuto | Kuro | Mika | Nazuna | Rinne | Shu | Tomoya | Tsumugi
A Charm
Maybe it’s a bit cheesy, but this isn’t an unexpected gift. You had gotten the initial charm bracelet from them early on in your relationship - each new addition for a milestone or special memory that the two of you have shared. It doesn’t matter if you wear it… the bracelet is like a little memorial to your relationship, a timeline of how the two of you have intertwined together.
Aira | Anzu | Arashi | Hiiro | Hinata | Kanata | Keito | Mayoi | Midori | Natsume | Nazuna | Ritsu | Subaru | Tomoya | Yuzuru
A Piece from Their Own Closet
Is this a lazy, last minutes gift? Oh no, it’s anything but. There’s a sort of satisfaction from seeing you wear something that belonged to them. Maybe they’re a tad possessive, maybe they want you to know that you’re as much a part of their life that they view their own belongings as yours… All they know is that when they see that piece on you, it makes their heart beat a bit faster.
Adonis | Chiaki | Hajime | Hiiro | Izumi | Jin | Jun | Kaoru | Koga | Kuro | Madara | Mao | Mayoi | Mitsuru | Natsume | Rinne | Tetora | Yuta
A Plushie
Purchased
You can’t deny how cute it is… Whenever you’re feeling lonely, be sure to snuggle with your new friend - and imagine your beloved is there with you! Either one of your favorite animals, their pet name for you, or maybe one of your favorite fictional characters… I mean, who wouldn’t love a nui of their oshi, after all?
Akiomi | Aira | Kanata | Leo | Midori | Nazuna | Ritsu | Shinobu | Souma | Tori | Yuta
Won from a Crane Game
It may not be as perfectly tailored to you as something they went out to buy, but… they worked really hard to get you this gift! Taking you out to the arcade, proudly announcing that they won’t stop until that plush is in your arms, where it belongs… plus, you get the fun memory of your little arcade date as a bonus!
Anzu | Chiaki | Hiiro | Hinata | Jun | Kohaku | Makoto | Mitsuru | Natsume | Shinobu | Shu | Sora | Subaru | Tetora
Handmade
Even if it won't be the same quality as the commercial stuff, it's just as sweet! They even included a little embroidery with your initials, so that there's no mistaking that this plush is yours. Every stitch was filled with the love they feel for you - resulting in a plushie that there will never be another one of.
Hajime | Kuro | Mayoi | Mika | Rinne | Shu | Sora | Tori | Tsumugi
An Experience
A Shopping Trip
Giving a gift can be hard… and they’re the type who wants to give you something you’ll 100% want and use… so- they’re taking you out! Maybe it’s to buy an outfit that you get to pick out, or just a whole date where they’re spoiling you with everything you wind up being interested in… either way, they’re going out with you to buy you your gift this year.
Akiomi | Arashi | Chiaki | Eichi | HiMERU | Hiyori | Ibara | Izumi | Keito | Makoto | Mao | Mika | Mitsuru | Nagisa | Rei | Tori | Tsukasa
A Special Dinner
The way to someone’s heart is through their stomach… but why stop at chocolates? Either at your favorite restaurant, the most exclusive place in town, or a personal and private home cooked meal between the two of you… They’re the type who wants to give you something special, a memory to look back on even after Valentine’s Day is over, and maybe the start of a tradition for the two of you.
Adonis | Akiomi | Eichi | Hiyori | Ibara | Izumi | Kaoru | Keito | Leo | Nagisa | Niki | Tatsumi | Tsukasa | Wataru | Yuzuru
A Couple's Class
You're going to try something new together! It could be learning to cook a brand-new dish together, making some sort of pottery, or maybe painting something. Not only do the two of you get to experience something special, but you get to take something with you to remember the special day by.
Anzu | Keito | Kohaku | Madara | Makoto | Mao | Mika | Mitsuru | Nagisa | Natsume | Rei | Rinne | Shu | Sora | Subaru | Tatsumi | Tomoya | Tsumugi | Yuzuru
A Trip to Somewhere Special
From the Art Gallery to the Amusement Park, you're going to be going on a special date at a place that the two of you will love. Looking at jellyfish at the Aquarium, attending the symphony, petting bunnies at the Zoo's petting zoo, or checking out the brand new archeological exhibit at the Museum… no matter what it is, it’s something to make your eyes light up and so they can see that perfect smile of yours.
Chiaki | Kanata | Kaoru | Koga | Leo | Madara | Makoto | Mitsuru | Nagisa | Natsume | Nazuna | Rinne | Shinobu | Souma | Subaru | Tetora | Tomoya | Wataru

Croissants with a Side of Feelings {Shu Itsuki x Reader}
Relationships: Shu Itsuki x Female Reader Word Count: 11367 CW: Reader has a medical condition, fluff, slight hurt/comfort (like a cinnamon sprinkling of hurt I swear) Set during ! era, specifically around the time of the Tanabata Festival.
“Really! It’s a miracle that you’re still up and standing, foolish girl.”
Shu shook his head at me, frowning as I stumbled to a halt in the middle of the practice room. 
“Shu-senpai! You’re earlier than usual.” I rushed to the speakers, stopping the recording of Sacred Youth Games that had been playing.
“Hmph and if this is what you’ve been doing before our practices perhaps I shall make a habit of it…” His frown deepened. “I have no use for broken dolls, girl.”
I scratched the back of my neck.
“I know. But it really wasn’t much, just a quick warmup!”
Shu “hmph”-ed again, moving to connect his own phone to the speakers.
“Shu-kun just doesn’t want you to overwork yourself, Y/n-chan,” Mademoiselle’s high-pitched voice peeped from her spot in Shu’s arms. “He worries about you.”
“Hush Mademoiselle!” Shu snapped.
“I know Mado-chan, but I’ll be careful,” I said. “I know my limits.”
A soft giggle answered me before it was silenced with a glare.
“Ngahh, sorry I’m late Oshi-san, Y/n-chan!” With his usual amount of grace, Mika stumbled into the room.
“Hmph, typical.”
“Don’t be fooled by his attitude Mika-kun, Shu-kun is happy you made it.”
“Ngah, thanks Mado-nee!”
Shu shot another glare at Mademoiselle.
“You’re particularly cheeky today.”
“Fufu, and who’s fault is that Shu-kun?”
Shu clicked his tongue, a scowl on his face. Despite his frustration, he gently placed Mademoiselle on the table next to the speaker.
“Regardless, now that we’re all here, perhaps we can begin rehearsals?”
I rolled my eyes, nodding, as Mika chirped an excited “Yes, Oshi-san!”. It wasn’t as if any of us had been late, in fact, it was a good 10 minutes earlier than we usually started rehearsal. But I knew better than to protest—the lead-up to lives always made Shu testier than usual and the Tanabata Festival was worse than usual.
I shook my head, moving out of the centre of the room as Mika and Shu took their positions for their warmup routine. The workload for the Tanabata Festival hadn’t exactly been light on my end—as Anzu’s fellow producer, she had asked me for help with some of the less major work so she didn’t have to shove it all on Eichi and the rest of the student council. Something about proving her capabilities as a producer without their backing? Not that it mattered to me, I would rather not ask Tenshouin for help.
Sighing, I pulled a pile of paperwork out of my bag. If Shu had bothered to tell me about this before he submitted the paperwork, maybe I wouldn’t be so irritated. But nooooo, he just had to accept Tenshouin’s challenge. I pursed my lips, reading over the proposal for the stage lighting. Well, there were worse things than a bit of extra paperwork. And school-hosted events were far less work organisation-wise than most of the places Valkyrie had been performing at recently.
I glanced up as the warm-up routine finished. Shu looked pleased and Mika looked significantly less flustered than he had been earlier. Shu fished his phone out of his pocket, stopping the piece of classical music that they had been warming up to. 
“Hmph, better than yesterday, I suppose.”
“Ngahh thanks Oshi-san!” Mika grinned at the back-handed compliment.
“It wasn’t a compliment, you failure!” Shu pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing. I resisted the urge to snicker as the two assumed their starting positions.
As the starting notes for Enthralling Theatre filled the room, I smiled down at my paperwork. Maybe this live would be the push Shu needed to return to the Yumenosaki stage.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Non! This simply won’t do!”
I watched as Shu tossed yet another bolt of fabric to the side. Shaking my head, I pointedly turned back to the stack of papers Anzu had asked me to look over. Staging…Lighting…Airspace permissions for Hibiki-senpai’s blimp…I resisted the urge to sigh. Only at Yumenosaki. 
Anzu had asked me to proofread the proposals before she handed them to the student council. I’d eventually agreed, but I still didn’t think my involvement would make Tenshouin more likely to approve the plans. But she’d insisted, saying that the Student Council couldn’t very well refute her proposal just because she’d asked a fellow producer for help! (Tenshouin was petty enough to do just that, but Anzu hadn’t lived through the War and didn’t know any better.) I scribble a note on the lighting plan—as much as Ryusetai (read: Morisawa-senpai) wanted flame machines and no matter how “cool” (this was true) or “heroic” (less true) they’d look, they were most definitely a fire hazard at an event that centred around highly flammable bamboo and paper.
Another bolt of fabric was violently discarded, rolling from the towering pile of rejects. I eyed the ever-growing pile and raised my eyebrow at Shu’s back. Across the room, Kiryu-senpai just shook his head before continuing to sew the outfit in front of him.
“Um, Shu-senpai…” I started nervously. “Do I need to make a trip to the fabric store?”
Shu turned to face me so suddenly, I jumped a little, almost dropping my pen to the floor.
“I know I’m not the best at picking fabrics, but if you tell me what type you’re looking for I could send you pictures of the colours? Or I could take some headphones and video call you?” I tapped my pen against the pile of paperwork, breaking eye contact. “You and Kiryu-senpai have got a lot of work to do here right? You can’t afford to waste time searching for fabrics for any unit’s outfits.” Even if it is for Valkyrie.
Shu pursed his lips, his gaze flicking to the nearly empty fabric rack in front of him and then to the pile of completed outfits Kiryu-senpai had finished. As he watched, another was added to the pile.
He sighed.
“Very well. I shall write down what I need and you can fetch it for me. However,” he raised a finger. “You must take someone with you to carry the bolts of fabric. Let me think…Rei should be in his club room…” He stood and wandered over to the cup phone that hung by the window, unhooking it and tugging three times on the string before pulling it taut.
“Rei? Yes, sorry to disturb you. I don’t suppose you could give me a hand? Of course.” He hung the cup phone back on its hook. “Rei will be here in a moment.”
“Senpai, I’m fine to bring the bolts back by myself,” I protested. “You don’t have to bother Rei-senpai.”
Shu raised a hand to forestall any more protests.
“Non! What if you were to drop them on the way back? I can’t have your clumsy hands soiling the fabric before it reaches this room.”
“Fufu, what Shu-kun means, Y/n-chan,” Mademoiselle spoke up from her seat on one of the shelves in the clubroom. “Is that he doesn’t want you to wear yourself out. You’ve been working so hard lately, we can’t have you passing out from overexertion again.”
I flushed slightly.
“Mado-chan that was one time!” I pouted. “I haven’t even had difficulty in getting up and down off the floor lately, I can carry a couple of bolts of fabric!”
“That is not up for debate. Rei will accompany you to the fabric store.” Shu shook his head at me and began replacing the bolts of fabric he’d gotten out on the shelves.
I sighed, turning back to my paperwork. Who knew how long a moment was to Rei Sakuma. All of the Eccentrics that I had met operated on their own timetable. Speaking of, I turned to the airspace permission forms for Wataru’s blimp. Eccentric indeed…
“Shu? You said you needed my help?”
Apparently, Rei-senpai’s definition of a moment was eerily similar to a regular human’s.
“Ah, my friend, you were faster than I expected.” Shu dusted his hands and went to the entrance to the clubroom. “I need some more fabric but neither Kiryu nor I can go. I’d just send the girl but I can’t trust her to carry the fabric back on her own. Would you accompany her?”
Rei-senpai glanced over at me, his lip twitching at the way I pretended that I most definitely was not listening to their conversation, thank you very much.
“Of course. It’s no problem at all.” He smiled at me. “Well then, shall we take our leave?”
I nodded, pushing my chair out from the table, leaving my paperwork where it lay. I’d be back before long—the fabric store that Shu preferred was luckily only a few blocks away.
I nodded goodbye to Kiryu-senpai, who nodded back, his focus on the intricate embroidery on the collar he was stitching.
“Here.” Shu shoved a piece of paper into my hands. “The list. Make sure you bring the fabric back in one piece!”
I nodded, glancing at the paper before shoving it into my skirt pocket next to my phone.
“Anything else, senpai?” 
Shu shook his head.
“Be safe y/n-chan!” Mademoiselle called. I smiled, waving briefly in her direction as Rei-senpai and I stepped out the door.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“So, Valkyrie is finally returning to the stage, hmm?” Rei questioned, hands in his pockets as we walked through the courtyard.
I nodded, glancing at him from the corner of my eye.
“Senpai seems pretty worked up about this live,” I explained. “Something about Tenshouin personally challenging them after the live the other night?”
Rei cocked his head.
“The performance at the live-house Kaoru-kun manages?”
I nodded and he hummed thoughtfully.
“I wasn’t with them, so I don’t know the details and Shu-senpai just,” I gestured vaguely.
Rei nodded sympathetically.
“Shu was Shu about the whole thing.”
I nodded, leading the way out of the school gates.
“Yep. And then Kiryu-senpai asked him for help with the unit costumes, so between the outfits and before and after school rehearsals, he’s been stretched thin.”
“I’ve noticed,” Rei said. “As have the other Eccentrics. And,” he turned his head to look me in the eyes. “We’re thankful to you for taking care of him for us.”
I waved my hands frantically.
“It's fine really! It’s just…he’s done so much for me and Mika-kun…I can’t let him starve himself to death because he’s so busy making Valkyrie look good! It’s my job as a producer to look after him!”
Rei chuckled softly.
“Of course, of course.”
I shook my head, opening the door to the fabric store.
“Alright, let’s see what he wants,” I muttered to myself, pulling the list out of my pocket. Rei peeked at the list over my shoulder, eyes scanning the immaculately written kana.
“...why is wine red satin on here twice?” Rei questioned, pointing at two items written directly underneath each other.
“It’s not. One’s wine-red satin and the other is wine-red sateen,” I explained, pointing at the kanji. “And wine red is our shorthand for Valkyrie red.”
I headed to the satin and sateen section, Rei trailing behind me. Carefully, I inspected the bolts of fabric, eventually pointing to two bolts I deemed Shu would approve of. Rei easily hefted them, slotting them under his arm. I felt my eyebrows rise slightly. A bolt of fabric usually had about 92 metres of fabric on it—lifting two so easily and with one hand, was no easy feat.
At least…I was hard-pressed to lift even one with my full strength. This trip was definitely going to be easier with Rei’s help. Once again, Shu had been correct to send me with help. 
Didn’t mean I had to like it. 
Though Rei was definitely an improvement over the time Wataru had insisted on accompanying me. Thank goodness the fabric had been slightly glittery already, though the face Shu had made upon seeing his slightly sparkly black fabric doused in red glitter had been hilarious. Wataru had still been banned from the clubroom and from accompanying me on any future fabric store runs. I had been punished with weeks of extra meaningless paperwork—which was not an experience I was eager to repeat.
It didn’t take Rei and I long to find the rest of the fabric on the list. Thankfully, all of the colours Shu had specified had been in stock, so there was no need for photographs or video calls. I paid quickly, apologising to the lady who ran the store for not being able to stay and chat this time. She smiled and laughed it off, promising to come and watch the performances at the Tanabata Festival.
With at least 5 bolts of fabric under Rei’s arm and a bag full of smaller amounts of fabric and other trimmings on mine, we exited the store.
“She seemed glad to see you,” Rei commented as we began the short walk back to school.
I hummed an affirmative.
“It's been a while since any Valkyrie members stopped in,” I explained. “We used to be regulars and the store’s close enough to the school that she probably heard about our fall. She’s a nice lady, she was probably worried about us.”
Rei chuckled.
“You seem to have friends everywhere, Y/n-chan.”
I rolled my eyes.
“I’m not Anzu-chan, Sakuma-senpai.”
He smirked at me. Smirked. The audacity. Why do I hang around the Eccentrics again?
“Oh? But you seem to have just as many friends, though maybe not in such high places as hers. I certainly can’t see you socialising with Tenshouin-kun or Hasumi-kun.”
I felt my face twist in disgust instinctively and Rei’s chuckles turned to full laughter as we entered the school grounds. The. Audacity.
I sighed, shaking my head at him.
“You are the worst, Senpai.”
His laughter echoed down the hall as we made our way to the Handicraft Club room.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Hmph, this fabric is acceptable.”
Shu frowned down at the bolts of fabric Rei had laid out on the table before he returned to his own club room.
“Shu-kun thinks that you chose excellent fabrics, Y/n-chan!” Mademoiselle cheerfully explained.
“Aww, thanks Mado-chan,” I smiled.
“Mademoiselle!!” Shu exclaimed. “Please keep your opinions to yourself!”
“Fufu, we both know whose opinions they really are Shu-kun.”
Shu sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. Carefully, he rolled the bolts of fabric back up and began sorting through the bag of trimmings, ignoring Mademoiselle’s comment.
“Kiryu-senpai finished for the day?” I asked, pointing my question at Mademoiselle.
“Kuro-kun had a rehearsal with the rest of Akatsuki,” she informed me cheerfully. “He said he’d be back in…hmm…let’s see about 30 minutes now? Tsumugi-chan also dropped in for a bit while you were gone—he said to say ‘hi’. He was just picking up some trimmings for Switch’s outfits, so he wasn’t here long.”
We both pointedly ignored Shu’s snort of “good riddance”.
“It’s a shame I missed him, I haven’t spoken to Tsumugi-senpai in a while…” I mused, tapping my pen against my pile of paperwork. “Though it would be easier if someone didn’t insult him the second he walked through the clubroom door.”
Shu sniffed pointedly and continued inspecting the blue cord I had bought. I shook my head, turning back to my paperwork.
The club was filled with the sound of sewing machines whirring, overlockers clacking, and paperwork being filled in. Kiryu came and left. The sun was almost completely set before I finally completed the paperwork.
“Senpai, it's getting late. Senpai?”
Shu blinked, looking blearily up at me.
“It’s past 6. Don’t you need to get home to Mika-kun?”
“Hm? Kagehira?” He blinked again, before realisation dawned. “Kagehira! Ah, where is my phone…?” He patted his pockets realising it was on the table.
“Ah, he hasn’t returned yet…he and that Narukami girl were going on a shopping trip today. It appears I still have some time…” He placed his foot on the pedal, but nothing happened. He frowned, tried again, then looked over at me.
I sighed, the sewing machine’s cord swinging in my hand.
“Senpai…We’ve had this discussion. You’re not allowed to stay late anymore.”
He huffed.
“Fine then. I shall simply take these costumes home then.”
“Nope. You promised. No working on costumes at home either.” I narrowed my eyes at him, dropping the cord to the ground. “Unless…you want me to message the group chat? I’m sure Natsume-kun or Rei-senpai are still around. In fact,” I turned, tapping my phone against my chin. “Hidaka-kun mentioned that the Theatre Club had rehearsals until late tonight too.” I stopped, staring right at him. “So. What is it?”
Shu had been getting paler and paler throughout my little monologue and now he was almost as white as the costume in front of him.
“I- I assure you that's not necessary!” He hurriedly stood up, grabbing his things from around the room.
I stood watching him, phone at the ready in case he decided to slip some pieces of fabric into his school bag. Before long, we were both heading our separate ways outside the school gates. Watching Shu head towards his house, I pulled out my phone to send a quick text.

I slipped my phone back into my pocket as the chat devolved into the usual discussions. Rei’s icon had just joined the cluster of ‘online’ icons and there wasn’t much point getting dragged into the group’s antics before I got home for the night. Luckily, I’d gotten all of my school-related work done while I was in the clubroom. The only things left on tonight’s schedule were dinner and bed. 
It didn’t take long before I was snugly under my blankets, scrolling through my Instagram. It was a pretty bland feed—I mainly followed the idol groups from Yumenosaki and any notable competitors from Shuuetsu and its sister schools. Nothing caught my attention (except for a sneak peek on Ra*bits page of their new costumes, which I had seen Shu pouring over the day before), so I placed my phone on my bedside table and went to sleep.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“One of these days,” I muttered to myself as I fumbled with my alarm. “I’m going to force him to make practice start at a reasonable time.”
I pulled my phone closer to my face, groaning as I looked at the time. 5:45 am. I groaned again. The clock flicked to 5:46. Still groaning, I slid out of my bed onto the floor. After almost two years as Valkyrie’s producer, you’d think that I would have been able to get out of bed for morning practice easily. But no. My body still hadn’t adjusted.
Well…I mused as I fixed my hair in the mirror, it is our first week back at weekly practice in almost a year. 
It took me longer than I would have liked to arrive at Valkyrie’s usual practice room. Looks like I won’t have time to run through any dances before Shu and Mika arrive. Though…I rubbed my chest as my heart twinged painfully…dancing probably wasn’t the best idea today. Had I remembered to take my medicine before I left today? I mentally ran through my morning routine, before shaking my head and moving to connect my phone to the speaker. It didn’t matter anyway. I’d live.
Or not, apparently.
I blinked, looking at the room around me. The infirmary? I mentally ran through the day, trying to figure out how I got here. Morning practice had been fine—better than fine really. Classes had run as smoothly as 2-B’s classes ever ran. We’d had P.E. and I’d ended up wearing myself out more than I had expected. I’d planned to head to the rehearsal room and do paperwork until practice finished, then move to the handicraft clubroom to supervise Shu. However, Anzu caught me almost immediately after classes had finished and dragged me around the school to inspect the area of the stage. The last thing I remembered was her excitedly showing me the layout she had in mind, before passing out.
I groaned. Forget the medicine, it’ll be fine, I said. I really ought to know better…I sighed, pushing myself up into a sitting position, cradling my head.
“Hmph, so you’re finally awake.”
I looked over at Shu, standing in the doorway, Mademoiselle in one hand and the other on his hip.
“Are you alright, Y/n-chan?” Mademoiselle asked softly.
“Ugh, I think so?” I rubbed my temples, feeling a headache building. “‘M gonna need some panadol though…”
A packet of painkillers landed on the bed. I took one silently, reaching for the glass of water I knew would be at my bedside. I swallowed it down, then drank the rest of the glass of water. Shu’s eyes followed my movements and the second I placed down the glass, the rant he was obviously preparing started.
“What were you thinking, fooling girl? Not only did you run to school, but you also forgot to take your medicine. And this morning, you probably did a warm-up dance routine before Kagehira and I arrived, didn’t you?” I opened my mouth to object—I’d done some vocal warmups instead of my usual dance routine—but Shu barreled onwards.
“And of all days to forget your medication, a day you had P.E.?!?! You have had the same class schedule for over a year, how could you forget something so vital? Then, running all over the school with that Anzu girl! You’re lucky that Kiryu happened to be passing by and carried you to the infirmary! You could have been seriously injured!” He paused, face slightly flushed from his rant.
“Aww, so you do care,” I teased.
“I-!” His face flushed even redder, his mouth opening and closing silently. I laughed at his expression.
“It wasn’t intentional, Senpai. I’ll do my best to make sure it doesn’t happen again.” I looked back down at the blankets. “I’m sorry for interrupting practice and distracting you from the upcoming live.”
I heard a light scoff and a muttered “foolish girl” before Shu loudly turned around.
“Well, if you are truly sorry, make sure you take your medication regularly from now on. Come, now that you are awake, you can return with me to the clubroom and finish whatever work you have to do.”
That night was the first night since Valkyrie had decided to participate in the Tanabata Festival that at precisely 6 o’clock, Shu stopped sewing and we walked to the front gates together.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
The days passed quickly in the lead-up to the Tanabata live. Between morning and afternoon rehearsals, production meetings, and classes, my days were filled to bursting. I arrived at school at just past six in the morning and left at around 6:30—depending on how easy it was to pull Shu away from his work on the many costumes that had been commissioned for the upcoming live. Thankfully, I’d only needed to put a call out to the other Eccentrics once. Both Wataru and Kanata had swiftly appeared and carried Shu out of the Handicraft Club and out the school gate, Mika trailing behind them. Clearly anxious not to repeat that particular experience—“Wet hand, wet hands, can you believe it?!?”—Shu was usually packed up and gone before 6:30.
Despite my busy schedule, I always managed to take time out of my day to practise. Valkyrie practice actually began at 7, an hour and a half before school started. My personal practice started at 6.
I had always dreamt of being an idol. But, my fragile body prevented me from being able to complete the strenuous activities being an idol required. I wasn’t sickly like Tenshouin, just weak. My medicine helped, but even missing it once resulted in disasters like the previous week. 
But it didn’t stop me from trying.
I applied for both the idol and production courses at Yumenosaki. I studiously copied dance moves in the mirror after practice, I broke down live performances, I practised singing on the terrace during lunch.
It was never enough. I could never be on the same level as the idols I dreamed to work with. Even Tenshouin, who spent half of the freaking year in a hospital bed, had greater stamina and performance ability than I ever could.
But that didn’t stop me from trying.
After Valkyrie’s fall, I had worked harder than ever, laying the groundwork for when Shu would eventually return. When Nazuna-nii asked me for help setting up Ra*bits, I dedicated myself to the work, doing my best to carve these adorable, fresh-faced first-years who knew nothing of the horrors of the year before a place as idols.
And still, I practised.
Even now, two weeks before the Tanabata Festival, I stood in the centre of Valkyrie’s practice room at 6:30am, Pavilion on the Sand echoing through my ears as I ran through what had been Nazuna’s part.
“Again?” An exasperated sigh filled the room. Shu walked past me, gently placing Mademoiselle on the table, and dropping his bag to the floor.
I didn’t stop dancing.
He raised an eyebrow, tapping his foot impatiently as the dance slowly came to a close.
“Morning, Senpai,” I greeted, belatedly.
He raised both eyebrows.
“Good morning.”
I grabbed my water bottle from where I’d left it on the floor.
“You’re here early…Where’s Mika-kun?”
“Kagehira shouldn’t be long. I happened to rise significantly earlier than usual this morning, so I left as he was beginning his breakfast.”
I nodded, taking the bottle over to my school bag. Shu watched me, lips pursed, foot still tapping.
I sighed.
“Senpai…If you have something to say, just say it already. You’ve been like this for a couple days now, it's starting to get on my nerves.”
“I- I…” He sighed deeply, eyes shifting nervously as he tried to find the words. “I am concerned about this…habit of yours. This…rising early specifically to come here and practice.”
I stiffened.
“I see. Don’t worry, I won’t let it impact my work as Valkyrie’s producer. You have nothing to worry about.”
He frowned.
“That is not-”
“It’s fine, Senpai,” I cut him off. I didn’t want to sit through Shu’s patented “I have no use for broken dolls, if you can’t be useful, I will cast you off” lecture. “Like I said, it won’t affect Valkyrie.”
“I-” Shu shook his head. “Very well then. You are usually well aware of your limitations, if you say that it won’t affect Valkyrie, then I believe you.”
I nodded sharply.
“Thank you, Senpai.”
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
I cut back on my morning practices after that. 
Instead of spending the whole hour running through different dance routines from both Valkyrie and other units, I chose one each day and spent half the time focused on the dance and the other half on vocal practice. Aside from a few pointed frowns, Shu didn’t bring it up again. The Tanabata Festival was approaching and he had far bigger things to worry about than my health. The pile of uncompleted costumes was almost done, Kiryu and Shu making quick work of them over the last three weeks. There were only a handful of costumes left to be completed outside of the Valkyrie and Akatsuki costumes, both of them had left their unit’s outfits to last. The beautiful red, grey, and yellow fabrics Rei and I had purchased still sat in the corner of the costume, barely touched.
I shook my head. Costumes—completed or not—were not what I needed to focus on. I scrolled through my playlist, deciding which song to practise this morning. This one…? Too hard with one person. That one…? Too high for me to sing. This? Too low. I clicked my tongue in frustration before my eyes landed on one I hadn’t done in a while.
It was one of Wataru’s, from the days before the war, before the Eccentrics. A solo piece—designed to be danced alone. The moves were tricky and it had been a while since I had rehearsed it, but I was confident that I could remember how it was done. I quickly moved to the centre of the room, tapping play.
Music filled the room, and I lost myself in the dance. It was easier to focus on the movements on the first run-through, left foot there, right foot behind. One arm up, the other outstretched. Turn. The melody was simple, but that didn’t change the vocal complexity. Even thinking about how to sing distracted me, a slight stumble in my step, so I redirected my focus to the dance.
“Oya? I thought I heard a familiar tune~”
I 100% did not jump and I did not scream. I didn’t. I swear.
“Hibiki-senpai!”
“Ah,” He sighed dramatically, laying a hand on his forehead. “So cold! Am I still nothing more than an upperclassman to you, Slave-chan? How often must I beseech you to call me by my given name?”
I sighed, feeling my heart rate begin to return to normal.
“As often as I have to ask you to stop calling me that awful nickname, Senpai.”
It also annoyed him, but that was just an added bonus.
He sighed dramatically again, leaning heavily on the doorframe.
“So cruel~ Ah! But I didn’t come here so early in the morning just to mope about in doorways!” He straightened up, pulling a rose out of thin air. He gestured for me to take it and I gingerly took it from his grasp. In my hands, it transformed into a letter. “A special delivery for you, dear Slave-chan~”
I carefully unfolded the letter, eyes skimming the beautiful calligraphy.
“Senpai…”
“Yes?”
I looked him in the eyes.
“This is in English. I can’t read it.”
He slapped his forehead.
“Of course, my mistake. Here.” He flicked his fingers towards me and the letter wiggled and merged, transforming into equally beautiful Japanese calligraphy.
Wataru Hibiki, in association with Kanata Shinkai, Rei Sakuma, and Natsume Sakasaki, invites you to lunch today, in the secret room.
“This…is a very dramatic way to be asked to sit with you four at lunch,” I said slowly. “I like it. Very aesthetic.” Wataru nodded excitedly. “But, is there a reason that this unusual gathering of the Eccentrics doesn’t include Shu-senpai?”
Wataru’s grin turned mischievous.
“That’s for us to know and you, dear Slave-chan, to find out.”
And with that, he vanished.
I looked down at the invitation in my hands. Shaking my head, I slipped it into my backpack.
Even if I forgot, Natsume-kun would drag me there the second class got out and I knew better than to push for more detail than I had already been given.
I’d find out at lunch I suppose.

“Kanata-niiSAN can you NOT drip wateR all ovER my secRET roOM?” Natsume sighed as he dragged me into the secret room.
“Ahh ‘sorry’ nacchan,” Kanata smiled, looking as unapologetic as he always did. Natsume sighed, shaking his head.
“HerE,” he pushed me towards a chair. “siT.”
I rolled my eyes and sat, tucking my legs up in front of me. Natsume plopped himself down on the chair next to me, across the room from Kanata, who pouted slightly.
“Oya? It appears that I’m not the last one here…” Wataru sighed dramatically. “My dramatic entrance has been ruined.”
“Trust me Senpai, you don’t need to try and make your entrances dramatic,” I said, smiling wanly as he sat in the chair next to Natsume. “Are you going to tell me why you called me here? Not that I’m not grateful for the excuse to get out of production meetings for the Tanabata Festival…”
“Someone’s in a hurry,” Rei commented, slipping into the room through one of the side doors. Wataru paused in the slow shuffling of his chair closer to Natsume and Kanata opened his eyes and smiled at Rei as he sat down opposite me, in between Kanata and Wataru.
I shrugged.
“Not really. But I am curious. It’s not every day four of the Five Eccentrics “summon” me to a meeting.”
“You’ve already ‘mentioned’ it,” Kanata hummed. “The ‘tanabata festival’.”
The others nodded.
“I thought so,” I sighed. “You guys worry too much.”
“You can’t really blame us,” Rei rested his face in his hand. “It is Valkyrie’s first performance since the War.”
“We can’t help but be ‘concerned’, y/n-chan,” Kanata chimed in. “Especially after the ‘last’ time. Mademoiselle-chan can only ‘help’ so much.”
“Indeed,” Wataru nodded, his serious side showing. “Even though Eichi~ has relaxed his tyranny and the time of war is over, we cannot exclude the possibility of some ‘over-zealous fan’ repeating the incident.”
“I know. And, Anzu-chan and I are working to make sure nothing like that will happen,” I assured them. “Anzu-chan wasn’t here for the War but she’s been working hard to design a new system that doesn’t disadvantage new units.”
For someone who hadn’t lived through the start of the DreFes system being so quick to overturn it and put something more fair in its place, Anzu really was a kind person, as much as she annoyed me sometimes.
“HmmM, I did catCH a gliMPSE of thE neW plaNS…” Natsume muttered thoughtfully, hand on his chin. “TheY haVE a gOOD chaNCE of succeedING.”
“Hmm Hmm! Anzu-san~ has been working AMAZING-ly hard!” Wataru’s earlier seriousness had been replaced with his usual cheerful mask.
“If y/n-chan is not ‘concerned’, we should ‘leave’ it to her,” Kanata hummed. “I am beginning to ‘dry out’, so I’m going to go puka-puka~”
Kanata pushed himself out of his chair and stretched.
“I suppose this meeting is adjourned then,” Rei said, doing the same as Kanata but with slightly more groaning and cracking bones. “Thank you for joining us, Y/n-chan. Please continue to keep an eye on Shu for us.”
I nodded.
“Of course, he’s my friend too.”
Wataru raised his eyebrow.
“Oho, just a friend, slave-chan?” He teased.
I looked away, blushing, and Wataru disappeared with a laugh.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Stupid Wataru,” I muttered to myself, trying not to stomp on my way back to class. What does he know anyway? Shu is my friend—and that wouldn’t be changing anytime soon.
“Friends, we’re just friends.” Even if I had been crushing on him for a while now…at what point does it go from being a crush to…something else? Not that it mattered, it's not like I could ever tell him.
In the entire time I had known Shu (not that a year and a half is a long time to know someone), he had never confessed romantic feelings for anyone. No prolonged glances at particularly attractive classmates only scoffs and sneers directed in the direction of any mention of romance from his friends or unit-mates. Even his obsession with Nito-nii wasn’t romantic. A little weird and slightly uncomfortable for Mika and I, perhaps, but not romantic.
Besides, even if I confessed, if he rejected me…I could be kicked out of Valkyrie.
I could just see it.
“You harbour romantic feelings for me? Non! This absolutely won’t do. I can’t have your love-sick pining ruining Valkyrie. You are dismissed!”
Then he’d stick his nose up in the air and walk away, leaving me behind.
I sighed.
I was being dramatic. At least after Wataru’s comment, aside from a soft chuckle from Rei, the other Eccentrics hadn’t said anything. Though, if Wataru knew, I wouldn’t be surprised if Tenshouin, fine, the Student Council, and the entire Theatre Club had heard of Wataru bemoan my ‘hopeless, tragic love’.
I shuddered just thinking about it. It was a good thing Shu didn’t pay attention to the school gossip, otherwise, I’d be screwed.
“L/n, what are you doing?”
I nearly jumped out of my skin, turning to see Shu walking around the corner.
“Senpai! What are you doing over this side of the school?”
He crossed his arms—no Mademoiselle?—and frowned.
“Hmph, I could ask the same of you.”
I shuffled awkwardly.
“Uhh, I was in the library?” I offered. “I was heading to the cafeteria now. What were you doing?”
He sniffed, clearly not buying it.
“The library? What could you possibly need from there?” He sighed, shaking his head. “Never mind. Well, I suppose I’ll accompany you to the cafeteria. Perhaps they’ll still have some croissants left…”
I shrugged.
“Okie dokie, I’m just gonna grab whatever.”
A soft ‘tsk’ came from Shu, but he didn’t comment further, so I just ignored it. If Shu had issues with my diet, I’d just remind him of the (multiple) times I had to call Kiryu to carry him to the infirmary when he’d passed out from low blood sugar. At least I had a valid medical reason for passing out, not “I simply didn’t feel like pausing my work to eat”. One cannot subsist on croissants alone. At least since Mika had moved in with him he had been careful to make sure the both of them ate well at home. And Mika had Narukami-chan constantly breathing down his neck about eating well at school (“If you don’t stop eating so many sweets, Mika-chan, your skin will never clear up!”), so it was just Shu who needed reminding.
“Shu-senpai, where’s Mado-chan?” I tilted my head to look at him, surprised to see him already looking at me.
“Hmm? Oh, I left her in the Handicrafts Club. Kiryu’s with her,” he explained when he saw my raised eyebrow. “I can trust him to keep an eye on her while he finishes the costumes for his unit."
I nodded. That made sense. Still, it was a little unusual to see Shu without Mademoiselle on his arm even before Valkyrie’s fall. But, it was probably okay.
“Besides,” Shu muttered so quietly I almost missed it. “She might say something foolish.”
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Why’d we hav’ t’ study,” Mika complained, slamming his head against his books. “There’s a live next week.”
I patted his back sympathetically.
“C’mon its the last question, we got this!”
We did not “got this”.
Mika and I both sucked at maths. You’d think between the two of us we’d be able to figure out what the heck the teacher had been explaining in class but nope. I frowned at my notes and Mika groaned, lifting his head from his book.
“Oshiii-sannnnn,” he whined. “Ya gotta help us.”
Shu looked up from the sheets of music he was writing.
“No.”
“Awww,” Mika pouted. “Ya know we’re no good at maths and stuff, ya gotta help us.”
“Yeah Senpai,” I chimed in. “Come on. It's the last question~”
Shu looked at me, unimpressed.
“I have already said that I will no longer help you with your homework,” Shu resumed scribbling notes on paper. “Mathematics is a very important skill.”
“Read through the question again Mika-kun,” Mademoiselle suggested. “You always forget to read them through properly. And Y/n-chan, you always write out your formulas wrong. Check it again.”
“Thanks, Mado-nee,” Mika crowed, rushing to do as she said.
“You’re the best Mado-chan,” I said, giggling at the look on Shu’s face. The embarrassed blush that spread across his face when Mademoiselle spoke his true feelings was kind of adorable.
I shook my head. Now was not the time to be thinking about that. I double-checked my formula and—sure enough—my formula was copied incorrectly.
I smiled at Shu as I corrected my answer.
“Thank you~”
He sniffed.
“Thank Mademoiselle, not me. I did nothing.”
Mika and I laughed.
“Sure thing, Oshi-san.”
Despite claiming that he wasn’t going to assist us anymore, both Shu and Mademoiselle helped us finish our homework for the week. It wasn’t like there was a lot—most of our classes were idol (or producer) related, things like music and dance. Maths, Japanese, English, and History were some of the few academic subjects that Mika and I took. Shu didn’t even take English—he took French. I shuddered every time I saw his homework. Why were there so many unnecessary letters???
Shu caught me frowning at his closed french textbook where it lay on the table and tapped me on the head with his pencil.
“Focus, Y/n, focus,”
I smiled sheepishly.
“Sorry Senpai,” I turned back to my final problem of the night. “There. All done.”
I slid the homework across the table and Shu examined it carefully. Mika noticed and frantically scribbled his final answers on his maths questions and slid the book next to mine.
Shu flicked his gaze between the books, then looked up at us.
We grinned, hopefully.
He sighed.
“The eclairs are in the fridge. You may get them.”
The loud scraping and shuffling of chairs as Mika and I frantically scrambled to the fridge wasn’t loud enough to cover Shu’s sigh. Shu’s eclairs were delicious and he only used them as bribes for homework. He refused to let us have more than two a week claiming that it would ruin all the hard work he put into making sure Mika stayed at ‘an acceptable weight’. But the limits were worth it.
I groaned as I bit into the eclair.
“I would answer a hundred maths problems if it meant I got to eat these afterwards,” I said to Mika, who nodded enthusiastically, a small bit of cream on his nose.
“I’d do anythin’ f’r Oshi-san’s cooking,” he said, wiping the cream off his nose.
“And you get to eat it every day.”
“Mhmm,” Mika nodded, closing his eyes in bliss.
“Are you two quite finished in there?” Shu raised his voice from the kitchen table. “I can hear you, you know.”
Giggling, Mika and I returned to the table to go over the preparations for the Tanabata festival.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Kanzaki-kun!” I shouted. “Stop pointing your sword at Hakaze-senpai.”
Souma lowered the sword slightly, turning his head towards me.
“But Y/n-dono-”
“No. Put it down. Now.”
He still hesitated, but Kanata put his hand on his shoulder.
“Hmmm, now is not the ‘time’, so~u~ma~,” he tilted his head and smiled. “y/n-chan and anzu-san are trying to ‘get’ things done~”
Souma shot another glare at Kaoru, who chuckled nervously, but sheathed his katana.
“Yes, Buchou-dono.”
I sighed, rubbing at my forehead. Tech run-throughs were the worst. Having nearly every unit in the school in the same place at the same time was next to impossible, so Anzu and I had organised it based on the student timetables. Of course, not all students in one unit were in the same grade, but we went with the majority. 
Unfortunately, that meant we had Ryuseitai, Akatsuki, Undead, and Valkyrie here at the same time. Anzu had been understanding enough to make sure fine was scheduled later in the day. An early confrontation between Tenshouin and Shu would not have been fun.
“Um, okay everybody, can we just have Undead on stage, please.” Anzu took advantage of the lack of weaponry to start the tech rehearsal. The stage cleared, the other units taking seats in the front row.
As Undead started to sing Gates of the Abyss, I made my way to stand in the tech booth. The members of the Broadcasting Committee gave me a nod before focusing on the lighting and sound.
I leaned against the wall, rubbing at my chest. I wasn’t sure if my meds were less effective lately, or if it was just the stress of the last few weeks catching up to me. I hadn’t said anything but the glares Shu kept sending in my direction told me he’d noticed something was wrong,
“Why are you overworking yourself, girl,” his glares seem to say. “I have no use for broken dolls and neither does Valkyrie.”
I sighed. A Broadcast Committee member shot me a questioning look, but I waved her off. I was fine.
After about half the song, the Broadcast Committee gave me the thumbs up, so I grabbed one of the mics as they cut the sound.
“Alright, thanks everyone, that’s all we need,” I explained. “Give your earpieces to the tech crew and you can head back to classes now.” Undead filed off the stage in an almost orderly fashion.
“Who’s next?” I asked Anzu, who had joined me in the tech booth. She pointed at the next name on the list as she scribbled down a note underneath Undead’s name.
“Okay,” I said into the mic. “Ryuseitai can you please make your way to the stage?”
From the tech booth, I saw both Tetora and Chiaki jump out of their seats, dragging their unit members with them.
“Kanata-senpai, please leave your spray bottle on your chair,” I said quickly, noticing the blue misting bottle in his hand. Kanata pouted but complied, waving his now empty hands at me to show me he’d put it down.
Ryuseitai’s run-through took a couple of songs to perfect their audio levels, but eventually, the tech team was satisfied.
Akatsuki’s rehearsal went quickly, the tech team quickly finding the correct audio levels.
“Alright, thank you Akatsuki,” I said. “Please return your headpieces to the tech crew and return to class. Valkyrie, you’re next.”
Mika jumped a little and Shu shook his head, pulling him out of his chair by his elbow. Mika stumbled a bit and a “Sorry Oshi-san” echoed through the mics. 
“Ehe,” Mika’s nervous laugh filtered through the sound system again, but he didn’t say anything else as he and Shu took their positions for Enthralling Theatre.
I had been watching them rehearse this every day for almost four weeks. It never got any less amazing. Shu’s movements led Mika across the stage as if he really was the marionette doll they were singing about. Even the tech crew was stunned. Even though they found the audio balance almost straight away, they let Valkyrie finish their performance.
“Thank you, return your headsets to the tech crew and return to class, please.”
Shu gave a sharp nod and Mika shot me a goofy grin.
I smiled. Tonight was going to be a performance worth seeing.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
My chest hurt from all the running around, preparing things for the Tanabata. I sighed, shaking my head as Hibiki-senpai’s blimp appeared in the sky and the crowd loudly cheered. At least I had prepared the paperwork in advance, though I’m sure Tenshouin would have paid any fines Wataru incurred.
Rubbing my chest, I moved to the wings of the stage to watch the performances. My work as a producer was mostly done—Anzu was taking the majority of the work onto herself, leaving me to supervise the units backstage. Not that that required much, this late in the year even the units consisting mainly of first-years knew the protocols.
There was nothing I could do except watch as Valkyrie rushed on stage to protect Ra*bits from fine. 
Their performance was spectacular. The tech rehearsal early was nothing compared to now, with the staging and lighting fully complete. Mika’s spins were perfectly timed with Shu’s movements—the illusion that Mika was moving as Shu’s puppet was near perfect. I could almost see the strings stretching from Shu’s fingers, connecting to Mika’s arms, the stage lights reflecting off the golden threads.
I could feel fine’s shock. They joined the audience in watching in silent wonder as Shu and Mika sang and danced, Shu’s art—no, Valkyrie’s art—reaching them after so long.
The lyrics of the piece Shu had been composing during our last study session echoed through my head.
Now, the song of their triumphant return shall resonate once again. The tale of the returning sovereign shall be heard once more.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
My heart was still beating fast from the adrenaline of Valkyrie’s performance as I dragged Kanata out of the fountain.
“Really, Senpai, you should know better!” I ranted, pulling him towards the stage. “You have a spray bottle for a reason!”
“Sorry, y/n-chan, i ‘forgot’ it,” Kanata smiled at me, letting me pull him along. I shook my head, pulling him in front of me and pushing him up the steps for the stage. 
“Just…don’t ruin the earpiece with your wet skin.”
“hehe,” Kanata giggled, patting me on the head. “y/n-chan ‘worries’ too much.”
I playfully slapped his hand away.
“Hurry up! Morisawa-senpai and the others are waiting for you!”
“i ‘know’. shu is ‘waiting’ for you too. hurry and ‘see’ him, okay?” With another closed-eye smile, he skipped onto the stage.
I paused, looking as Kanata joined the rest of Ryuseitai on stage against fine. That’s right…Shu had been lying by the fountain, recovering from the live. Mika was still backstage in case Valkyrie was called back for another performance—the Tanabata system ensured that all of the units would get a chance at first but once everyone had gone, it was randomised. It would be a while before Valkyrie would be called on stage again, but it was best to be prepared. 
But it was best to not leave Shu alone by the fountain. He might doze off, or worse—pass out. I had been busy all day and hadn’t been able to make sure Shu actually ate something at lunch instead of slaving over the finishing touches of the Valkyrie outfits. 
Maybe I should get him something sugary to drink…Performing with low blood sugar wouldn’t be the best idea Shu had ever had but then again, it wouldn’t be the worst one either. My mind helpfully supplied images of the time that Shu had decided that the only way to get through all of the costumes he needed to sew and his homework was to drink 3 cups of coffee and eat a chocolate croissant and proceeded to go into some sort of caffeine-fueled haze. Which was fine while he was in it…but the crash had been awful.
Needless to say, Shu was banned from coffee now.
Still, I picked up a juice from the nearest vending machine as I hurried back to the fountain. If Kanata had said Shu was waiting for me, there was probably something important he needed to tell me. My chest twinged again as I jogged to the fountain. I was going to have to see the doctor about my meds—clearly, they weren’t working properly anymore.
Shu was still lying by the fountain, in almost the same position he was in when I had forcibly dragged Kanata out of the fountain. I sat down by his head, placing the bottle of juice next to him.
“I didn’t know if you had eaten much today, so I thought I’d pick one up,” I explained, crossing my ankles and looking up at the stars. “If you don’t want it, I’ll just drink it.”
“Thank you.” Shu slowly swung himself into a sitting position, before taking a sip of the juice. “I had gotten so caught up in my preparations for tonight that lunch slipped my mind.”
I hummed in acknowledgement.
“At least you ate dinner, even if it wasn’t much.”
“I- yes. Kagehira was quite insistent.”
I nodded.
“He can be pretty stubborn at times, huh.” I giggled softly and turned to look at Shu.
He was already looking at me, an unreadable expression on his face.
“What? Do I have something on my face?” I asked.
Shu shook his head, but his hand moved forward a bit before he withdrew it and laid it on his lap.
“I suppose Kanata told you that I was waiting for you, didn’t he,” Shu asked, turning his gaze to the sky. I did the same, looking at the faint constellations.
“Yep~. Did you have something you wanted to tell me?”
“I…” He paused and took a deep breath, seemingly bracing himself. I frowned, worried. I didn’t want to speculate on what he was going to say but I was a little on edge.
“Y/n, I…have feelings…for you.” His gaze didn’t move from the stars above us but he shifted slightly closer to me as he spoke.
Wait, what.
“Pardon?” Surely I hadn’t heard correctly. He wasn’t going to say something like “feelings…of disgust” and play it off as a joke, right? Or worse, had the other Eccentrics put him up to this…had he somehow figured out that I liked him? I felt my heart rate start to rise as panic started.
Shu looked over at me, a light blush dusting his face.
“I like you, Y/n. I have tried to hint at it for quite some time but I…I am not the best at expressing it and I just ended up hurting you. I’m sorry…” He reached out a hand to caress my face. “Can you ever forgive me?”
My mouth opened slightly and I stared at him in shock. He…liked me? Shu, Shu Itsuki, former Emperor of Yumenosaki, my crush for the last year and a half, liked me back? I floundered, staring at him in silence, my heart beating in my ears.
Obviously, my silence was taken as something else—disgust, indifference—because Shu’s soft smile dropped and he began to move his hand from my face. Quickly, I snatched it, pushing it back against my face. Shu looked at me in shock, trying to understand what I was doing.
“Shu…I like you too…” I started. “I’ve liked you for so long…I never thought that you would like me back.” Tears began to well in my eyes and I tightened my grip on his hand.
“Y/n…” Shu gently wiped the tears from my eyes, both hands cupping my face. “Y/n…may I kiss you?”
I nodded frantically, closing my eyes and leaning in. My heart rate was so high, I could barely hear Shu’s breathing and he was two centimetres from my face. We were so close, our lips almost touching…
And then, everything went black.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
When I next opened my eyes, I was in the infirmary. Mid-morning sunlight streamed in through the windows, softly lighting the room. I blinked, pushing myself up into a sitting position. I rubbed at my eyes, clearing the sleep from them. I reached for the glass of water next to my bed, but couldn’t move my right hand.
I frowned, then looked down. Shu was tightly gripping my hand, his head resting on the side of the bed. He was in his practice clothes, his soft pink hair mussed from sleep. I smiled softly, running my left hand through his hair.
Shu liked me back.
Shu liked me back.
He liked me back and he was going to kiss me! And then I had to ruin the moment by passing out.
I groaned out loud, slamming my head back against the wall behind me. Stupid body, causing me to pass out at such an important moment! A tear of frustration trickled down my face and my hand stilled in Shu’s hair.
“Mghm…” A soft groan came from Shu and he slowly sat up. “Y/n!” He jerked upright, his eyes searching my face. “Are you alright? You suddenly passed out and I had to call Kiryu to come and carry you to the infirmary. Sagami-sensei said that you would be alright and I had to go back to the Tanabata with Kagehira.”
His grip tightened around my hand and I smiled tiredly at him.
“I’m fine, sen-...Shu. I’m just,” I leaned my head back against the wall again. “I knew my meds weren’t working properly. I’ve known for at least a week. But did I go get it checked out? Noooo~ I just had to stick it out. And now…I ruined it.”
Tears spilled down my face and I closed my eyes, wishing that I could disappear so that Shu didn’t have to see my tears.
I felt the bed shift underneath me and opened my eyes as Shu pulled me into his arms.
“Oh…mon chère…you didn’t ruin anything.” He gently stroked my hair as I sobbed harder. “Though, it pains me to hear that you knew that your medication wasn’t working and didn’t tell anyone. Though I know that it is a little hypocritical of me to talk about things like that.”
I nodded into his shoulder, my tears slowing as I listened to him talk.
“We have plenty of time, now that we’re both on the same page, yes?” Shu continued stroking my hair. “There is no need to rush, darling.” He softly kissed the top of my head.
We stayed like that for a while, Shu stroking my hair while I tightly squeezed him, my tears eventually stopping. Slowly, I pulled away, sniffling slightly.
“‘M sorry…I think I ruined your practice shirt.”
Shu smiled, handing me a tissue.
“It’ll wash out.”
The door opened with a slam.
“Oshi-san! Is she awake?”
Mika burst into the room with his usual amount of grace.
“Ngah, you are!”
“Even if she hadn’t been, you would have woken her, barging in here like that! What were you thinking, Kagehira?!?”
“Ahh sorry Y/n-chan…”
I laughed softly, blowing my nose.
“It's okay Mika-kun, I would have been overdue for a wake-up call anyway.”
“Mhm mhm! Anyway, its lunch so I brought’cha both something!” Mika smiled proudly, handing each of us a bento. “I promised Naru-chan I’d eat with her so see ya later!” And with a wave, he was gone as quickly as he came.
Sighing, I leaned against the bed frame, shuffling over as Shu moved next to me to wrap his arms around me. We sat there for a while, Mika’s bentos placed on the bedside table.
“Shu?” I asked.
“Yes, my love?”
I looked up at him but I didn’t meet his eyes.
“I know you said there’s no need to rush but…could we…maybe…kiss?” My voice got softer and softer as I went on but Shu’s soft smile encouraged me.
“Of course, mon chère.”
This time when our lips met, I didn’t pass out. The kiss was soft and unsure, but it was a kiss. And that was better than I could have imagined.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“Ohoho~ Slave-chan, you’ll never believe what a little birdy just told me.”
I looked up from my paperwork to glare at Wataru. It was a few days after the Tanabata. Both Shu and Sagami-sensei had insisted that I take a few days off to recover and an appointment had been booked with my doctor to work out why my meds had stopped working correctly. But after only a few days, the paperwork had really piled up.
“Hibiki-senpai, I don’t have time for your dramatics right now. Can’t you see I’m busy?”
He chuckled.
“Fufu, I’m sure you are. But this was the most AMAZING~~✩ news,” he placed an elbow on the desk, cupping his face in his hand. “Are you sure you don’t want to hear it?”
I closed my eyes, briefly debating if murdering one of the Eccentrics would truly be a punishable crime. After all, if it was Wataru I would be ridding the world of a great nuisance, right? Maybe I would be free to complete paperwork without any distractions.
“What news did you hear, Senpai?”
Wataru clapped his hands.
“AMAZING~~✩ I knew you’d come around.” He was suddenly sitting on the desk next to me, instead of the seat across from me. He leaned in conspiratorially and I put down my pen to listen to him. “A little bird to me~ that a certain someone finally~ got their act together.”
I raised my eyebrows.
“You’re going to have to be a little more specific, Senpai. I’m not up-to-date with the school gossip.”
“Oya?” He twirled his braid around his finger. “I didn’t think I would need to be more specific when this piece of news involves you.”
I felt my face flush instantly. Shu and I hadn’t told anyone yet, how did Wataru know? Did Shu tell the Eccentrics already and just hadn’t let me know?
“Ah ah ah~ I can hear your thoughts racing! Don’t worry, Shu didn’t tell me. Like I said,” he gave an exaggerated wink. “A little bird told me.”
I groaned, slamming my head onto the pile of paperwork and homework in front of me. Wataru laughed merrily.
“Such a wonderful reaction! But, getting a reaction out of you is not the only reason I came here! I had hoped to find Shu-kun sewing away in here as well, but it appears its just you. Ah well,” he sighed, standing dramatically up from the desk. “I suppose I shall just have to tease him another time.”
“Tease me about what, Wataru?”
Wataru turned to face the doorway, hair nearly whacking me in the face as I lifted my head to see Shu standing in the doorway, a box of croissants in one hand and Mademoiselle resting on his other arm.
“Ah hah! So you have appeared Shu! Such a dramatic entrance rivals one of my own!” Wataru spun around the table, arms outstretched.
Shu sighed, walking into the room, placing Mademoiselle on her usual perch before sliding the box of croissants over to me.
“I got one for you. Feel free to start while I deal with this idiot.”
Wataru gasped.
“Is that any way to treat your friends, Shu?”
“Hmph. It’s certainly the way I treat annoyances.” He crossed his arms, staring Wataru down, which was kind of funny given how much shorter than Wataru Shu was. “Why are you in my clubroom Wataru? Surely you have an actual purpose other than being unnecessarily irritating.”
“But of course!” With a flourish, he pulled an envelope out of his hair. “For you and your dear Slave-chan~”
I looked up from my croissant.
“What is it?”
“An invitation…” Shu mused. “Really…what is the point of having mobile phones if you are just going to deliver these sorts of things in person?” He handed me the piece of paper. I read it over quickly.
“A party…? What for?”
“What for? My dear Slave-chan, it's a congratulatory party! From us Eccentrics to the two of you! Congratulations on saving us from another day of your pointless pining! Congratulations for finally getting your act together! Isn’t the power of love AMAZING~~✩?”
Shu let out a long-suffering sigh, but his face was slightly flushed.
“Fine. In order to spare Y/n and myself from any more of your shenanigans, we’ll agree to attend. Now, get out of my clubroom!”
Wataru smiled widely.
“Ah, I knew you’d come around! AMAZING~~✩” And he skipped out of the room a trail of rose petals falling to the ground behind him.
Shu sighed again, pressing a quick kiss to my cheek before sitting down next to me. I silently slid him the box of croissants.
“Ah, thank you, dear.”
I smiled, brushing the crumbs of my croissant off my paperwork.
“You know,” I said, as I started filling out the post-live paperwork. “I think this is the first time in nearly a year you went and got lunch all by yourself. Normally Mika-kun or I bring it to you.”
Shu hummed, carefully taking bites of his croissant.
“I guess…I wanted to do something for you instead.”
I stopped my paperwork to gape at him.
“What? Do you not believe me?” He asked as I stared at him.
“No, it's not that, I just can’t believe you said it out loud. Normally you’d be like ‘I’m perfectly capable of getting my own lunch!’ and then Mado-chan would pipe in, telling us something like ‘Shu-kun just wanted to make your life a little easier, Y/n-chan!’ y’know?”
There was a slight smile on Shu’s face from my attempts at mimicking his and Mademoiselle’s voices, but he glanced away from me.
“Well, if you prefer I can go back to that. It's just…” he paused, searching for the words. “I am trying to be clearer at communicating my feelings without Mademoiselle’s help.” ‘For you’ was left unspoken, hanging in the air around us.
He…was really serious about us, wasn’t he? Not that I had doubted him but we had only been dating for a few days and even though we’d spoken over the phone, today was the first day we had properly seen each other since the Tanabata.
I smiled at him.
“Thank you. I appreciate it.”
He smiled back and we kissed again, illuminated by the afternoon light streaming in through the clubroom window.
✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩ - - - ✩
“ReaLLY…do we haVE to uSE my secRET roOM for this…?” Natsume sighed as we watched as Wataru produced a disco ball and used his hair to attach it to the roof. Kanata laughed and clapped happily, while Rei and Shu were engaged in a rather heated discussion about the pros and cons of electric guitars and their proper place in music.
I laughed a little at Natsume’s forlorn expression, pouring him another glass of the punch he’d made earlier.
“Well, would you rather do this at someone’s house?” I asked. “The only person who lives close enough and has lax enough parental supervision is Shu and I believe this was supposed to be for him, so wouldn’t that defeat the purpose.”
Natsume took the glass from my hand and downed half of it in one gulp. I laughed harder.
“It’S noT juST foR yoU anD Shu-niiSAN,” he huffed. “It’S foR thE faCT we no lonGER haVE to watCH yoU pinE aftER eaCH otHER.”
“Hey~ I can’t disagree with you on my end but Shu pining? I can’t imagine that.”
Natsume looked at me with an expression of pure disappointment.
“No wonDER it toOK you twO so loNG to geT togetHER…” he muttered.
“Hey!”
He looked me dead in the eyes.
“LeT me recreATE a sceNE frOM the laST EccenTRICS meetING.” He cleared his throat and an imitation of Shu’s voice came out. “Ah, but I don’t deserve her. I’ve done nothing but cause her pain, just like the rest of Valkyrie…How could she ever look at me with love in her ey-”
“NATSUME!” Shu shrieked from the other side of the room. “Just what do you think you are doing?!?”
The rest of the Eccentrics burst out laughing. I looked at Shu’s embarrassed expression—his face redder than Valkyrie's stage costume, his eyes wide with fear—and I couldn’t help it. I started laughing too. Soon the room was filled with the wheezes of five people so far gone into laughter that the slightest thing set them off again. In the midst of it all, Shu stood arms crossed, pouting.
By the time we all managed to calm down, we were lying on the floor in the centre of the secret room, absolutely exhausted from our laughter.
Shu frowned down at me, hands on his hips.
“If you are quite finished, can we head home?”
I pouted up at him.
“Come on, we can stay a little longer right?”
All four of the Eccentrics on the floor turned to Shu with pleading eyes. He sighed.
“Fine…fine…we can stay.”
We all cheered and Shu rolled his eyes as he lay down on the floor next to me. I turned so I was on my side, facing him.
“Hey.”
He smiled softly.
“Hello.”
Before either of us knew it we were kissing again, ignoring our surroundings even as Wataru cheered, Rei wolf-whistled, Natsume groaned, and Kanata giggled.
A perfect ending to a perfect day.

rei sakuma x reader angst please, thank you :D
Omg seeing all these requests makes me so happy 😭 I'm trying my best to get through them. I hope this is to your liking! It's been a while since I've written angst, so I'm kind of (really) rusty.
Genre: Angst >:D
Warnings: My writing hurts more than the story
Italic paragraphs are past tense and the words in italic at the end are hints towards something..
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Good things always come to an end..
You silently sat on a bench outside of Yumenosaki Academy, letting the current rainfall drench you as you reflected back on your relationship with Rei.
You should have seen the signs. You know you were stupid for staying, but you were too blinded by your imagination to see the faults in your relationship with Rei, the self-proclaimed Vampire would always cancel your plans last minute, playing it off as Idol work coming up. There was no one to blame but you.
"Rei! Rei! Rei!" You shouted excitedly as you ran into the music club room, disturbing the poor Vampire from his slumber.
"What do you want?" He responded grumply. "Look at this pretty restaurant I found! We should go some time!" Sticking your phone in his face and shipping through the photos. Rei simply laid back down and shooed you off with an "I'm busy". The two words he says to you everytime you want to spend time with him, even if he's not busy
Flag one, he never wanted to spend time with you.
"Hey Rei! Who's the girl you're working with?" You asked curiously, seeing as this girl always took up his time. Rei scoffed, "Why are you suddenly so nosy? What I do with others is none of your business." He replied sharply before walking off without you.
Flag two, he always ditched you for a "friend"
How you wish someone would have warned you about Rei. The pain that came on your first year anniversary could have been stopped if it wasn't for your foolishness.
That day you had gotten up, ready to surprise Rei for your one year anniversary. You did your hair up extra nice for the day and backed his gift in your school bag. Happily skipping off to school for the day, since you weren't expecting to see Rei till after the day ends, you thought it'd be nice to plan a restaurant date for him too. When the day had ended, you went searching for Rei. You checked all his usual places but still unable to find him.
Disappointed you made your way outside the school only to find Rei holding Anzu close to him. Assuming they were just hugging, you made your way over to them.
"Rei! I got you a gift for our anniversary!" You raised your voice as you approached them. Rei quickly let go of Anzu and sent a glare your way. "What are you doing here, I'm kind of busy right now." He said roughly.
"But Rei, it's our one year anniversary, remember!" You said, handing him your gift and offering a soft to smile to them both. Rei simply hit your gift to the ground, "You can't take a hint, can you?" Scoffing, he grabbed Anzus hand and walked away, leaving you standing there shocked. Anzu gave you a guilty look before following Rei off somewhere.
And like that, he slipped through your fingers, leaving you in a heartbroken mess.
Silent tears ran down your cheek as you stared at Yumenosaki. Reminiscing on the past would do you no good, you knew that. That's why you were transferring to Reimei tomorrow. You could never get over Rei staying at Yumenosaki, so you did what's best for you. Leave.
As a final goodbye, you wrote Rei and the rest of UNDEAD a goodbye letter to wish them farewell after working close with them for two years. You slipped in an extra note for Anzu to, as you respected her hard work a lot. You didn't hate her for Rei leaving you, and you never will.
You left your little letter next to Rei's coffin for when he woke up. Packing your stuff, you silently closed the door and made your way home for the day. Rei, having heard you enter and exist, got up and opened the note.
You finally left. It took him four months to realize how he used you. How he couldn't live without you, but he knew it was too late to go back. How could he go back to you after breaking you, everyday he'd silently watch you from afar as you struggled to get over him. It hurt him, and he didn't know why. He never meant to love you. It was all a game, so why does he feel this way?
Snapping out of his thoughts, Rei ran after you, almost bumping into Anzu who worriedly chased after him. As the clock clicked 7 pm, Rei slowed to a stop. He was too late. Anzu stopped besides him asking him what's wrong but he didn't answer. No he couldn't answer. The only thing he could say was your name.
You were gone, and Rei was too late. The one good thing he had finally broke, like a overused doll.
Tumblr media
I had such a good ending but I had to re-write it cause tumblr deleted it..even though I hit save I'm sorry 😭

Hello, I hope that you are doing well! I have made sure to read your term of services for requests and I hope that you won’t mind me requesting for a fix with Rei sakuma x reader! ⸜(๑'ᵕ'๑)⸝ 💕💕
I truly liked the way you described him (and might be thinking of reading it again more frequently as it was spot on—) and would like to add a characteristic to the reader, if I may. \0/ The reader is a shy and calm person, easily blush to their boyfriend’s action whatever it might be, and who majorly likes to be alone. The fic might be about how they become a couple one how they show affections, after all they’re both touch starved and one is a producer while the other is an idol from UNDEAD haha ✨
Please do take your time for writing it, I know how long it might have been to write the "head-canons" one, so please do it at your own pace! I will be waiting faithfully ‎〜(*´▽`人)♡♡
a letter under the blossom tree
characters: rei sakuma (really small cameos from Koga and Adonis)
x gn!reader, fluff, ~960 words, reader is referred to as Producer
a/n: My first request!! Thank you so much for the kind words (it really made me so happy!!), and I realize that the reader isn’t too shy in this, so I’m sorry it wasn’t exactly to your request. (I do hope you still like it though!) Sorry for taking so long, it’s been busy for me recently. Please enjoy!
Tumblr media
You walked through the school’s courtyard, before settling down on a bench and sighing. It was a bit hard getting used to being a producer, as you suddenly transferred from your old school to Yumenosaki. Although you did have Anzu as another producer, you didn’t want to bother her with stuff that you should’ve been doing.
It sometimes was chaotic, but Trickstar always liked to remind you that they were there for you, so you weren’t too worried about your work.
Plus, UNDEAD was a group full of good people. Adonis checked up on you from time to time, plus Koga would too in his own way. And Rei...
It was embarrassing to admit, but you held some affection for Rei. Whenever you talked to him, he would manage to fluster you, you eyes darting away from him. You put your head in your hands, sighing at how you stomach filled with butterflies while thinking of him.
And to be honest... you had finally mustered up the courage to give Rei a confession. The catch is, you didn’t actually give Rei the confession verbally, you instead wrote a letter explaining your feelings. And you also didn’t write your name on the letter...
You shook your head, wondering if this will do you any good. You weren’t even sure if he got the letter, as you placed it in his coffin and ran away immediately. Although you knew Rei was an observant person, you made sure the letter didn’t have any distinct identifications from you. The letter was typed up, with you putting a flower inside to distract from any scents that would lead to you.
It was hard to express how you felt, and it would be even harder for you to do it while standing in front of Rei. The letter was the best choice, but you weren’t sure if leaving your name out of it was the correct decision. Feelings were truly complicated you noted.
A hand slightly shaking your shoulder got you out of your thoughts, and you turned to... Rei?!
“Ah, Producer, there you are.” Rei smiled at you. It seemed that UNDEAD’s practice was done, as you saw Koga and Adonis walking somewhere at the corner of your eye.
But what surprised you the most was Rei up and about, since he wasn’t exactly the most energetic person when it came to being outside.
“Sakuma-san, may I help you?” You tilted your head, and with a growing horror you suddenly thought of that letter you had sent.
“Have you seen anyone go into the Light Music club room recently? Koga complained about a floral scent at the beginning of practice.” Rei sat down next to you, your heart pounding at the close proximity.
You felt chills go down your spine, slightly sweating at the question. “I haven’t had the time to go near the club room, sorry.” You lied, your hands slightly clenching.
“Fuhuhu, that’s alright. I was just wondering about the letter in my coffin.”
You sweated even more. “A letter? Do you know who it was from?”
Rei shook his head. “After reading the contents of the letter, it seems that I have a secret admirer.” He paused, folding his arms. “I would like to know who it was from though, but alas they did not include their name.”
“Good luck finding out who they are Sakuma-san.” You faintly laughed, hoping he wouldn’t see through you. Your heart seriously needed to calm down, it was beating so fast because of the man sitting next to you.
“Thank you. And I would like to say Producer, you may call me Rei if you would like to. It’s not good to be so formal, no?” His laughing was twinkling in your ears, the wind blowing softly past you two.
Rei suddenly reached out to you, your eyes widening when he leaned forward. “It seems that a petal had landed on your shoulder, so excuse me if I startled you, my dear admirer.” He retracted his hand, a cherry blossom petal between his fingers. His eyes shined, flustering you at how pretty he managed to be without even trying.
But you suddenly realized what he had called you. “Did... you just call me admirer? What’s with the sudden nickname?”
Rei tilted his head, with the corner of his lips curling up. “Oh, I do indeed wonder about it. Perhaps you would like to explain?”
You couldn’t look him in the eyes, choosing to stare at the ground. Rei however grabbed your chin with his hand, moving your head to be in his direction. His eyes held amusement in them, choosing to stay silent.
“..Fine. Yes, it was me who sent the letter. Will you just tell me your answer already?” You whined, refusing to look at Rei in general.
Rei laughed, moving his hands to envelope your cheeks with them. His hands were slightly cold to the touch, and you could feel them gently restraining you from turning away.
“I suppose I failed in the aspect of showing you my affections if you couldn’t figure them out already.”
You stilled, trying to process his words. A measly “Huh..?” left your lips, too caught up in the moment to say anything else.
“I’ve been trying to hint at you, but it seems that it has missed the mark. What I’m saying is that,” He paused, removing one of his hands from your face to intertwine them with one of your hands. “Yes, I like you too.”
You suddenly jolted back to reality. All of those nervous thoughts flew out of your head. Softly whispering, you asked him a question. “May I hug you... Rei?”
Rei smiled widely, engulfing you with a warm hug. “You may do so whenever you like, my dear.

𝚝𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚊 𝚋𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚔 | arashi narukami x reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[an]: hello there! tysm for requesting~! it’s rare to see someone request for our beloved princess of enstars 🫶 but i’m glad someone did! please do enjoy~!
summary: arashi really hated seeing you work nonstop
pairing: arashi narukami x g/n!reader
genre: small angst, comfort, fluff
Tumblr media
12:42am
you were still up.
you weren’t even sure what time it is anymore. you’ve been working at the same bundles of paperwork since yesterday, along with fixing the new track for knights’ new song project, not to mention anzu had to go to another city to help trickstar with their next live so apparently the idol work here was left at your hands since…there were no other producers but you and anzu after all. it was all so tiring. you had no time for breaks except for a small coffee rest that is, though you had no idea if you considered drinking latte while typing on your keyboard as a break.
switch requested if you could help them train and rehearse for a song they’re working on and obviously you agreed. afterwards you arranged for akatsuki’s next live so that the other idols’ schedule wouldn’t be too messy along with fine’s and undead. you had lend a hand to ra*bits who had a hard time rehearsing for a song without a proper producer helping for their next project plan, and last but not least; you had to help knights schedule for a photoshoot that was needed for a song cover. all of these things you have to do on your own, with only small help from the students and idols who volunteered to give you backup.
due to all of this workload, your new sleep schedule was around 2am in the morning. you didn’t even had time to go back to your home, you only had time to sleep in the napping room for 3 days straight with a spare futon and some clothes you brought along with your eyes always felt like dropping in a minute. adonis was one of the first few people to notice the bags that laid underneath your eyelids, said to you to take naps daily in the afternoon like ritsu does. however you refused every time he says so. adonis was sweet…but you need the job finished as soon as possible so that nothing is left when you rest.
regardless, in this particular day, tsukasa was selfless enough to help you work with the other files you were currently about to finish. and because of his kindness, you had more energy to finish the other half. thank the gods tsukasa was a saint. although, even if he did helped you—doesn’t mean that your work went less for you. you still had to finish them in the napping room alone. 12:00am. it was 12am in the morning.
‘just a few more then i’ll head to bed…tenshouin-san needs these by tomorrow…’ was what your head told you before sitting back up straight at your desk and resuming yourself typing onto the keyboard. now that the idol industry was getting bigger and bigger, the producer’s work just kept increasing. not only did you have no time for yourself but you’re here piled up on the desk with your eyes glued on the laptop screen 24/7. you and anzu were bummed. the daily schedule always goes on after all.
it didn’t take long when the thoughts caused your eyes to drop little by little, and in realization you slapped yourself awake. hard. a little too hard that you let out a yelp due to the pain. “ow, ow, ow…” you murmured. shouldn’t had done that. yet it was the only choice you could do or else you’d fall asleep right at the spot. there was still so much to do. you wanna finish them all in one place in order to finally enjoy some free time. just one more and you’re finished…it felt so relaxing to snooze right now, the room temperature was just right and the futon you brought in the nap room was just to your liking….if only you could just—no, no…finish the work first. just one more and you’re—
“goodness me y/n-chan, why in heavens are you still up?”
the voice that came from outside of the room startled you—and due to it, you almost fell right of your seat and let out a small yelp. the person also yelped in surprise. oh thank the gods it was just arashi at the door.
the both of you stared at one another for a few seconds, before you spoke once again, stammering a little on your words. “a-arashi-chan? what are you doing here? it’s late…! you should be home by now, you have a photoshoot tomorrow…!” your wonder caught you off most of the times, yet there was an obvious reason of why the big sister of the knights was still here. heck, you’d even predict that even some of the knights’ members are there. with a soft laugh, arashi covers her mouth with her right palm, “my, my, y/n-chan, did you forget? we have to get ready early by tomorrow~ so the king decided we sleep here for a while at school so that by the time we wake up, we’d just clean ourselves up, dress up, then head out~!” she cheers with a beam. “we already asked for the student council’s consent and they agreed~ how kind they are…” she sighs. arashi was so lucky that still had that optimistic expression stuck on her…while you…
“i only went out to take a small bathroom break, then i saw your room light still on. when i went to take a look, here we are.” she then added, her right hand now caressing her cheeks as she explains. you hummed, rubbing your eyes as you looked at your watch. 12:56am. goddamn it. you weren’t even half finished yet.
“y/n-chan, you should go head to bed now. the knights need you by tomorrow, y’know~? sleeping late isn’t good for your health~” you heard the girl murmur from the side. arashi was right, but you weren’t finished with your work. “you did so much today, y/n-chan. the most hardworking must need to rest too. you must be tired now, aren’t you?~” but there’s still a lot more to finish and some of them will be needed by tomorrow for eichi and Keiko . if only anzu was here to help…her messages to you were helpful however…that didn’t mean your workload would lessen. ah, this was stressing you out. you wanna sleep already.
that’s when you felt tears prick to your eyes. it was surprising, really. the moment all you felt was stressed from the piles of work you had to finish by yourself, to the burden in your chest collapsing beyond your emotions that you aren’t able to hide anymore.
tired. you were tired.
the small beads of tears came down to your face one by one, eyes wide—stunned. all arashi did was gasp a bit, yet she smiles so softly afterwards. it was like she knew this was going to happen eventually. emotions are always often easily broken down once someone asks, ‘are you alright?’ but for you, you just needed arashi to see through. steadily and slowly, you cried. it was…relaxing. for the past few days you’ve been crying to yourself alone in this mere room. no sense of comfort of anything…if only anzu was there, she’d be the one giving her upmost support to you as somebody who helps her out with her duties. yet again…she’s not there. here. with you.
however, having someone like arashi seeing you in a vulnerable state like this was quite humiliating—to the fact you had to cover your face with both of your hands to hide your tears and low snuffles. slowly, you can hear footsteps approach to your figure in every step she took. and out of nowhere, she pulls you into a tight hug, cooing you down like an awoken infant. the way she did it was warming you like an open campfire, mesmerizing, warm and…something you can’t get your eyes off.
arashi was a burning fire in your heart.
“shh…shh, it’s fine…” arashi whispers, like an angel as she stroked your hair with such tender. almost like her fingers were combs itself. you quiet down as she told, and hugged her back, retrieving more of the warmth you were feeling in your entire self. “you worked so well today, y/n-chan~ i’m so proud of you, you have no idea. even tsukasa-chan was proud…we’re all proud of you.”
such a small sentence yet that felt like a huge impact landed on you.
“say, let’s head to bed now, shall we? i’ll sleep beside you if you want,” she’s questions, looking over at you as you both pulled away. “you can pause the work for now. time for bed~” before you even got to reply, the two of you were now laying down on the spare futons that were laid down on the floor of the napping room. the atmosphere was different. probably because you were here with the one and only sister of the knights unit. with you arms tangled around hers, did both of you stared at each other’s eyes was much endorsement. she looked so…beautiful.
“my, my, don’t keep staring at me like that, y/n-chan, i just might fall in love with you,” you heard her say, and you immediately avoided your gaze away from hers. she laughs, softly. “sorry, sorry~! i was just teasing you~ your face really did turned red, how adorable~” arashi cooed, and you whined. “seeing you overwork like that worries me a lot all the time, you know? sometimes i even wondered if you ever get any vacation. your eyes are baggy. come with me tomorrow~ i’ll get those away in a quick pace~!”
you chuckled, voice a little hoarse from tiredness. “there’s no need to. tomorrow’s another important day for your unit, i wouldn’t want to barge in your schedule that i arranged personally myself…” arashi frowns a bit upon your reply. “don’t say that, you’re gonna ruin your gorgeous face, y/n-chan…” a hand was placed over your cheek, warmth from the knight member’s hand with a gentle grin smiling from cheek to cheek. “you’re a beautiful person, y/n.”
you smiled back. “and you’re…a very beautiful woman, arashi-chan.”
arashi’s eyes widened. stunned from what you had just said. her breath shaken, yet she smiles again afterwards—tini tiny pricks of tears of joy snuck into the corner of her eyes who smiled along. out of nowhere, she pressed a small peck against your forehead, and you jolted up.
“geez, do you want me to sleep or keep on teasing me? arashi-chan…just make your mind up…already…”
she then stretched out another beam, “i wanna stay with you that’s my decision. let’s sleep together, y/n-chan—huh?” the girl was frozen, eyes locking down on your very own body as you were already asleep, right in front of her point of view. arashi laughs, though all she did was snuggle right into your side, covering the blanket over the two of you cuddling.
being with you wouldn’t be so bad. after all, that was the first time ever somebody complimented her like that. with that word all she ever wanted to hear from her beloveds.
looking at you one last time as arashi’s eyes also began to grow drowsy, she whispers, “consider that as a reward kiss, y/n-chan…and..” she landed one last peck onto your forehead. “a good night kiss. hehe~ sweet dreams, y/n-chan.”

ES x KFC - Epilogue
Tumblr media
Writer: Mitsuki
Character(s): Sakuma Rei, Hakaze Kaoru, Oogami Koga, Otogari Adonis, Tenshouin Eichi, Hibiki Wataru, Himemiya Tori, Fushimi Yuzuru
Translated by: jewwyfeesh
Proofed by: stcrfeesh
Season: Winter
Location: Staff Dining Hall
Tori: Yaaay~! Everyone looks so happy! This activity is a great success – as expected when Anzu and fine join forces ♪
Wataru: You’re saying it’s all thanks to everyone who rushed over to help? Haha, looking back upon it now… Lady Luck must’ve smiled at all of us, for we’d coincidentally arrived right as Anzu-san was struggling to arrange for extra helping hands.
Yuzuru: You’re not wrong; I too had realised that when I was working in the kitchens. Even though there was a large influx of customers and it was rather busy, everyone worked together well to ensure a smooth delivery.
To be able to navigate the unfamiliar territory of the restaurant industry so skillfully… the Producer must’ve prepared a multitude of contingency plans before tackling the job.
Eichi: Haha, I’m not surprised by this in the slightest. After all, we’ve all been watching Anzu-chan’s growth.
You’ve already become a producer that we can trust and be proud of for a long time, haven’t you?
Rei: Oya? I was wondering what happened, but it so happens that people have been taking turns to praise our ‘Store Manager’. The magical creatures of UNDEAD won’t be left behind, either.
Little Miss… no, our Producer. This assignment is just like all that came before – 10/10, completed with flying colours ♪
Koga: If y’all keep crowdin’ ‘round Anzu praisin’ her like that, her face’s gonna explode from how red it is~ Is this the newest bullyin’ tactic?
But, this time we did real well. If there’s ever a next time, remember to call me, yeah?
Adonis: Mhm. Even though today’s rather tiring, I do feel quite fulfilled. Delivering meals for the customers, and seeing everyone with big smiles on their faces… the satisfaction is equivalent to having eaten a huge barbeque meal… no, it’s even more than that.
Kaoru: Haha, this event was a huge success thanks to Anzu-chan. You’ve worked hard~ I think everyone wants to continue praising you till you drop.
Eichi: Isn’t this a great indicator of how well Anzu-chan fared? You should just accept everyone’s praises, you know.
Rei: Speaking of which, everyone should be hungry after a day’s work, so how about we eat a big meal together to celebrate? This time, the celebratory feast will be on the little miss’ home turf ♪

The castle of sand that was washed away.
-------
The old valkyrie was gone, replaced by a Phoenix rising from its ashes. Its star attraction Nito Nazuna left after a certain incident. Shu was almost broken like the very dolls he so longed to care for. And Mika, well Mika was alright but very torn.
The Emperor as he was called among students was away. Very few remained when the transfer student came. The rift from the war growing ever more, when the revolution started. Then she went missing, noone knew but a certain mirror in Natsume's secret study was the culprit. Whisked away to wonderland, but noone knew. Noone but those residing in this wonderland. But in such a wonderland there had to be rules, if someone was reborn they had to lose their memories, lest they break like a doll. This wonderland was deadly, a god's footsteps resulted in the heartbeat of a demon's heart. In the mirror a soul resides, not one of self loathing but of selflessness.
NEGI, the girl who defied death saw this wonderland, of course she did. She was reborn there, when the pierrot began to play his flute upon the night of a full moon. But she didn't lose any memories. Leading her down a dark path, when she saw Anzu, the transfer student, her heart pumped again. Out of loathing, she was here with no memories. She looked up to the moon, and felt peace. As if someone said 'she is needed' to NEGI. NEGI led Anzu to the palace within the wonderland. There stood seven thrones. The far right had a man holding a doll, the man looked like Shu, a man anzu had known previously. Shu stepped down and greeted her with fondness, but Anzu didn't remember him. Of course, the rules of the world were quite limiting. But not to the gods of the world. 'Eden' as they called themselves ruled this wonderland. They made the rules.
A man behind the thrones walked forward, he looked almost undead. Like a vampire... Anzu felt uneasy and began to back away in fear. All she could hear was someone calling out to her, shaking her to wake up.
Then it went black, Anzu saw Shu and Mika above her. Nazuna stood in the corner, it was all a dream. But it felt real.. And NEGI was with them. Natsume grinned in the corner, so one of his mirrors was really magic. He just had to wonder, what other mirrors that he had held secrets.
-------
Okay what do you all think of this little prolouge to enstars x twst? I came up with this kinda on the spot. Do you guys want me to delve into this mirror story more or go to the next one? Answer in the comments if you want have input.

overworking isn't a good look
Genre: slight angst and fluff
A rei sakuma and leo tsukinaga x reader
a/n: I'm kinda scared that this would disappear after a day (like what happened with angelic discovery) hopefully that doesn't happen. Requests are open for this wonderful fandom so please don't be shy in requesting anything! Without further ado, let's get started!
Rei sakuma
Tumblr media
You were planning the s1 this time. Anzu had to keep her focus on trickstar so it was just you alone this time. Along with that, you had to deal with undead and 2wink's deals. You continued to plan out the s1 and set up 2wink's concert at the amusement park.
At this point, to catch up with deadlines, you started to skip on meals and only opted for a few hours of sleep instead of the usual 8 hours. You were exhausted, physically, and mentally. On the day of the event, you were running all over the place, making sure the event was running smoothly. Rei couldn't watch you closely since he was getting his unit ready so he asked ritsu to look after you. Ritsu tried to follow you around but he ultimately just sat down by one of the garden chairs and slept.
Everything was perfect. Undead fans were screaming with delight when the unit finished up their performance. Undead jogged off the stage and bumped into you in the wings. Rei looked at you with a smile. "so? How did we do darling?" he asked, his hand under your chin so you would look into his eyes. His smile turned into a concerned expression when he saw how pale you looked. "darling are you-" was the only thing you heard when everything went black.
You woke up on one of the beds in the infirmary. Afternoon light shining down through the windows. You groggily sat up and looked around to see an asleep older sakuma. Rei was slumped in a chair, his head down. He looked like he was sleeping peacefully. You smiled, looking out the window to see the auditorium still filled with life and music. You left the event. Who was running it? You were about to stand up when someone pushed you back to lay down. "you need rest darling."
You looked into rei's red irises and you immediately relaxed and laid down. "who's taking care of the event? Shouldn't you be there for the results? i-" you rambled before feeling soft lips pressed against yours. After a while, the male pulled away with his endearing smile on his face. "I'm glad you're okay but please don't do that again darling. I know you want everything to be perfect but you don't tire yourself too much. I'll be here to help you." he said, pulling your head up then kissing your forehead.
"I love you rei." you blurted after a few moments. His smile grew wider, making him hug you a bit more tighter. "I love you too darling," he whispered back.
Leo tsukinaga
Tumblr media
He would be oblivious. Arashi and ritsu weren't as oblivious. That's why the 3 of you are in the library, reading about the old dreFes grading systems and the old tradition of the knights.
"are you sure you can handle this (y/n)? You can leave the knights' proposals and brand deals to me." arashi said with a soft smile as she takes one good look at the handheld mirror then takes your hands in his. "yeah (y/n). You don't have to shoulder all the work. We can help." ritsu sleepy said, sitting up straight after getting woken up by arashi's soothing voice. "yeah but still. I'm knights' producer. I should learn how to handle amounts of work like these." you said with a tired grin, closing the book that you were currently reading. "well, let's go home boys!" you said, walking ahead of the 2 out the library, making the pair look at each other in concern. They know you aren't okay.
After dealing with all their proposals and all the planning, it was finally the day of the dreFes. It was an s2. leo couldn't be any happier since knights were going to debut a new song. Arashi was giving hints to the king that he needs to make you rest but of course leo doesn't catch on, running around you. "QUEEN! I'M SO EXCITED!! IS EVERYONE THERE? IS THE LIGHTS SET?? ARE THERE A LOT OF PEOPLE?" he said energetically, jumping all around you, usually, you can deal with his energy with the same enthusiasm but you just felt drained so you just nodded with a fake smile painted on your face. Leo started to feel like something was wrong but adrenaline was flowing through him to the point that his slight worry for you faded away even for just a little bit.
The crowd went wild after hearing the new song. The boys gave one last bow before running to the wings. You were giving them their refreshments when you suddenly felt lightheaded. "queen? QUEEN? Oh no she's dead!" leo yelled overdramatically, pulling you into his chest when you started to tip over. All the knights stood around you. "she isn't dead, leader. She does look pale." tsukasa commented. "maybe you guys could stop gawking at her and carry her already?" izumi said, all the knights started to walk around you, feeling the cold ground when you were placed down by your boyfriend for a few short moments. You let the darkness engulf you.
You woke up looking at the infirmary ceiling. You looked around to see the knights sitting on one side. "MY QUEEN!" leo yelled when he saw you move, running over to your side, leaping into your arms. "I was worried, I thought you died," he said once he pulled away for a little bit to look at your face. There was a pout on his face. "you were so pale. I was so scared. If you feel overworked. I'm- no we're here to split the work!" he said, gesturing to the other worried members of the unit. Leo gives you his biggest smile before pulling you close and peppering your face with kisses.
"Thanks, guys. Sorry, I worried you. I'm sorry I worried you, my king. I love you." you said, whispering last words to him, making him smile wider. You didn't realize until later that the other guys in the room were smiling too.
 I'm not sure if leo is ooc. I feel like he is but this is just how I see this energetic bean! You can tell my love for the sakuma bros from here- Requests are open. If this goes missing from tags, don't be surprised that there would be a repost! Love you guys ❤💕💖💞

gonna do some enstars x mlb rambles ┻┳|・ω・)
feel free to keep reading if u want this is definitely self indulgent hehe 
So it’s a mostly silly AU nothing too serious: I was just applying mlb charas to enstars units and stuff nothing too crazy. I got really into it when I realized how similar Marinette was to Anzu (who is functionally supposed to be the game’s self-insert but she has so much personality and traits that she shouldn’t be considered one): both take on a lot of responsibilities, both are capable of designing and sewing clothes, and are likely to prioritize others over themselves first (Marinette w/ the city of Paris and Anzu w/ the cast of enstars). So I wanted to have Marinette in the producer position, similar to Anzu in enstars, then have the rest of the mlb cast fill in spots in the multitude of units in the series. I haven’t finalized the units but these were the ones I had so far:
Adrien: Knights -> Trickstar 
my first choice was Knights since the show portrays as Adrien as a prince at times yet also working as a knight, which fits Knights’ image of those who serve their princesses (e.g. their fans). Plus Knights has two characters heavily involved with modeling (Izumi and Arashi), aligning with Adrien’s own modeling. But then I thought about it more, and basically he’s gonna be ripping off parts of Makoto’s story: at one point in the ! era main story, Trickstar (the og protag unit) gets disbanded and Makoto is forced to join Knights, but eventually Trickstar reunite despite the order to disband. Plus, Makoto also happened to be a model but doesn’t do it anymore (although for Makoto its due to trauma) which would fit in with Adrien not wanting to model anymore. Also I think Trickstar’s image of “rebellion” would likely fit Adrien more in the end even though the show hardly touches upon this side of him nowadays
Alya: Ryuseitai
this one was kind of easy, as Alya is shown to be a huge fan of superheroes, and while Ryuseitai’s flavor of superheroics don’t align with typical western depictions (taking inspiration from Tokusatsu instead), I still think Alya would fit in w/ the variety of personalities in Ryuseitai. She has a strong sense of justice similar to Chiaki, and can be very highly motivated (even for the wrong reasons) like Tetora. Also cause she’d make a good Ryusei Orange ^_^
Nino: Switch
ahah imma be honest I’m still unsure which unit to place Nino in but I just think he’d vibe with switch’s vibes
Chloe: fine
my brain first jumped to Crazy:B for Chloe cuz of the bee aesthetic but then I realized she’d hate their aesthetic so into fine she goes. I was mostly thinking fine for her because she’d be similar to Tori: an uptight snobbish brat who looks down on people. So like yeah she could be in fine even if its angelic imagery wouldn’t fit her personality wise.
Luka: UNDEAD or Alkaloid
this one was hard because I think Luka would fit well w/ the personalities in UNDEAD, especially the likes of Rei and Adonis... but aesthetically, while the unit uniform would look cool on him, I just don’t think he’d fit the appeal UNDEAD has (basically they appeal to their fans in a seductive and wild way (biggest lie ever but hey it’s what canon says)). It’s just. Not what Luka is. My other choice was Alkaloid, as they’re the other rock-inspired unit, but their aesthetics are military aligned so I’m still stuck.
Kagami: any of the units besides Akatsuki
my personal choice here was Ra*bits just because I think she’d look adorable in their unit uniform. But I wanted to avoid sticking her into Akatsuki because it’d just be falling into stereotypes and I don’t like doing that (although hypothetically she’d get along with Souma but that’s because the two of them are Japanese stereotypes 😔)
Lila: Crazy:B (?)
tbh I was likely going to stick her into Eden alongside Felix, but I did want to spread out the characters throughout different units so here she is. She’d definitely rock their unit uniform and tbh? She does fit somewhat, specifically aligning with the way Rinne lied about his intentions, purposefully acting a certain way in order to rile people up (although Rinne’s intentions were in the end supposed to be good, while Lila’s... not so much)
Felix: Eden
imma be honest I was projecting Ibara real hard onto Felix it’s just... both use underhanded tactics to get what they want, they’re not above acting a certain way to further their plans, just tricky people in general... so yeah into eden felix goes
Juleka: UNDEAD
Rose: Ra*bits
don’t have a lot to say for julerose i just put them in these units cuz it felt right in my head
Maybe I’ll put the rest of the miracuclass into units but I’m still not sure about that... meh it’s just something to tickle my brain for now

The Date - Expertshipping (Atem x Aileen) Part 9
((A/N: Here's the long awaited Chapter 9 of "The Date!" In the coming chapters-Will Yami come to terms with his trauma? Will he be prepared for the big day with Aileen? Will Yugi and Anzu make a cameo? Keep reading to find out. // ... // Warning: Even though it skips over the rape scene in the flashback, this is still the most disturbing chapter to date. Read with caution.)) ... (Yami Yugi's POV) Yami trained endlessly for the big day: the day when he and Aileen would run a marathon. She would sometimes train with him, but today she wasn't home. So he decided to train alone. He was already athletic; though it didn't show much on his small build. His muscles had tightened, but they still looked as small as before. After his long jogging run, he came back to the game shop. He went upstairs, opened the door to his room, plopped down on his bed, and was out like a light. He'd tired himself out more than expected. ... ((Flashback: Ancient Egypt)) He was standing at the court of a rival empire. He and his priests were negotiating a trade deal. The king of the rival empire looked a lot like his father. He wore white, purple, and gold, possibly to flaunt his wealth. Everyone knew how hard purple was to come by. His eyes were comforting, but selfish. There was something in his eyes that unnerved the young pharaoh, yet they beckoned him to come closer. "My king," said his right hand man. "Are you ready to negotiate with Egypt? I'm certain they have a lot to offer us." He turned to Yami and gave him a polite smile. It was like one of those fake smiles those snobbish older women who secretly dislike you and think they're superior to you would give. Yami smiled back, doing his best to be polite, even though he saw right through the right hand man's game. "I'm sure we do. Seto, show them the finest Egyptian linens we have." Priest Seto took a box from one of his camels, and showed the other king what was inside. The king held them up. "Yes, these are very nice. I'll take them." In return, he offered gold. ... At the end of their trades, the other king smiled at Yami. It was a trustworthy smile, unlike the fake one from the right hand man. Yami shook hands with him. "You've been a fair and noble trade partner," the young pharaoh said. He bowed his head respectfully. The man was at least twice as old as he was. Just because his right hand man didn't respect young people didn't mean he had to prove him right in his assumptions. "As are you," the other king agreed. "Just like your father was." "I'm sure he'd be glad to hear that, were he still alive," Yami said, trying not to feel sad at being reminded. The other king noticed how sad the boy looked. There was a glint in the man's eye that Yami didn't notice. "Come to my room later on," the man said. "The rest of the gold I have for you is there." Yami had noticed he'd been ripped off for the tiniest bit of gold, but he didn't think to mention it. Most everything else was in order. Still, if the man wanted to be fair... The pharaoh had an odd feeling, but he didn't think much of it. Sometimes feelings could deceive you. So he entered the man's room. There was no gold in sight, only a canopy bed with a wooden chest by the foot of it. The man was nowhere in sight either. Suddenly, Yami felt a hand over his mouth. The person who'd grabbed him roughly pushed him against the wall, bruising his bare arms which had shot out to protect his chest. "What is the meaning of this?" the 15 year old cried, removing the hand on his mouth. It was a great offense to touch the pharaoh (if you weren't his family or his wife). It was a greater offense to hurt the pharaoh in any way. He glared at the figure. It was the king of the rival empire. "Do you have any idea what you're doing?" If the man wasn't a fellow king, he'd be beaten until his whole body was sore. The man smirked. "I know exactly what I'm doing. I've wanted to claim that pretty body of yours for a long time, and now that your father's dead, he can't protect you." "What?!" Yami cried. He struggled in vain. "Release me!" The other man glared down at him hatefully. It was rude of the young pharaoh to refuse a gift. He slammed him into the wall again and again. Soon there were bruises all over the boy's arms. Yami grew more frightened. "Stop it!" he cried. He tried to escape, but the man grabbed his arm. He pulled the boy onto his bed. Yami tried fighting back, but his face was slapped. The man held him down and took some rope from below the bed. He tied Yami's arms to his bedpost. "No! Please stop!" Yami had no idea what was happening, but it was nothing good. This was the sort of thing a kidnapper would do. He scanned his mind for ideas. His legs were still free, and he could kick the man off the bed. But he feared the repurcussions that might occur from that. So he just lay still, fighting the ropes that bound his hands. A bead of sweat ran down his face. "You had it coming. Always so proud and noble and innocent. It's about time someone taught you about the real world," the other king said. He lifted the boy's robes, exposing half his body. Then he moved his hand to the boy's face. He caressed the pharaoh's cheek and sniffed his hair. "Hmmm... you smell sooooo good..." The pharaoh shuddered. He felt more weak and helpless than ever before. "Let me go, please..." The man didn't listen. He continued touching him inappropriately, moving his hands down gradually. "No! Noooo! Please...!" Then he started doing something truly horrible. Outside the room, an agonized scream was heard. The servant girls were the only ones who heard, but they knew better than to ask questions. ... After the king was done with him, he pulled away from the body below him, rolling onto the other side of the bed. From his bedside table, he opened a drawer, and pulled out a gold ring. He crawled over to the young pharaoh and slipped it onto the boy's pinky finger. It was a perfect fit. He'd kept his promise. That was the gold he'd promised to give him. He always kept a promise. He watched the boy lie still on the bed, eyes empty and staring straight ahead. He was still so pretty, the king thought. So he moved closer, and placed a kiss on the boy's lips. He was met with no resistance, and no reciprocation. The boy simply lay there, like the undead, only blinking occasionally. The sweat looked gorgeous on his hazel skin, the man thought. Smirking with triumph, the man simply moved close to his ear and whispered, "All hail the mighty King of Egypt." The mocking words were the final straw, and the young pharaoh broke. New tears streaked down his face, wetting the spots the old tear stains had left. ... Yami returned to his priests. His eyes were still empty, and he looked drained of most of his life force. "So did you get the gold?" Seto asked. He nodded. Slipping the ring off his finger, Yami deposited it in the box with the rest of the gold with such carelessness - almost disgust - you'd think he was handling garbage. "So what happened," Seto said. "You don't look happy." The way the pharaoh spoke was unlike any way he'd spoken before. His words were empty sounding rather than confident and proud. "Let's just go back to Egypt." Seto was so surprised by his words that he had no response to them. He simply nodded. "Good idea." Back in Egypt, in the pharaoh's palace, Yami asked to speak to Seto alone. The priest met him in his room. Slowly, Yami explained everything that had happened. Seto was shocked, but not surprised. The way Yami was acting could only be explained by something horrible like this. "And you see," he finished, "because of what happened, I cannot rule over Egypt anymore. That man stripped me of my nobility. So, I must pass on the station of pharaoh to you." Seto was taken aback. "You can't be serious!" At seeing that he was, Seto looked him dead in the eye. "Pharaoh, please understand this. Sometimes horrible things happen to good people. But you can't just give up! Just because he tainted your body doesn't mean he tainted your heart and soul! You're still noble on the inside." He looked at him with love. "I'm sure of it. You're still the leader Egypt needs!" The pharaoh wasn't expecting him to say that, and was touched to say the least. His eyes shone with love for the other man. "Oh, Seto..." he hugged him. "Thank you. Thank you so much..." More tears leaked from his eyes; tears of joy this time. Regardless of what had happened, he knew Seto was right. He would keep ruling over Egypt like he had before. And his friend would be there to help him heal.

summary: in which shu finds his perfect half to stitch by his side forever…
pairing: shu itsuki x g/n!dollmaker!reader!
genre: fluff!
Tumblr media
a prime collection…
in every step shu takes inside of the vast cold room, his eyes always seemed to land on nothing else but the dolls you create. an elegant creation, handmade by the most lovely person he knew. other than mika that is. the way you would stitch those little eyes together, connecting the arms, head and the hair. he knew this took a good lot amount of time to finish.you were very hardworking and diligent. one reasons why he loves you, just like how you love your creation to make dolls. it wasn’t the first time he discovered you loved crafting these adorable things. the first time you both met was when you borrowed a sewing machine from the sewing club. he just happened to also walk in the room to create new clothes for mademoiselle.
he knew the moment that you two met, there was an instant connection.
a conversation starts. one sentence and two. you knew him from the idol concerts your friends had been babbling about other than undead and trickstar. he seemed to not take their compliments in mind, although his attention was more drifted to your particular interests. he sees your perfect talent in making such gorgeous dolls (he loved every single one of them) but you knew mademoiselle was still his favorite. shu appreciates your talent, and you too appreciated his talent for making such cute clothes for his antique doll. on the first day, you both seemed to be enjoying one another’s company. shu was perplexed that you weren’t much surprised when he walked in the sewing room so normally even after knowing he was a famous idol, but in return as a response you replied that idols are still people after all, they just had amazing talent that makes others attracted. he thinks that this was your definition of the word ‘idol.’ he won’t complain, you were very straightforward with your answer.
as he is an idol himself, he can’t help but feel impressed. you were somewhat familiar like anzu, the idol producer. however you were more different.
you weren’t bewildered for his love for feminine things, in fact you found it quite normal. he just sat there, a little stunned. by the time you finished your time in the sewing room, you shared your goodbyes with the pink haired male. and just as you were about to leave (shu had to stay still since he wasn’t finished with his work), shu stood up from his chair, and suddenly asked for your name. despite how you both forgot to introduce yourselves (in fact you already knew who he was). you laugh so cherry, before answering, “my name is y/n l/n. it was nice knowing you, itsuki..” and then you walked out.
shu had no idea what just happened, however “according” to mademoiselle, is that he found someone new.
it also seemed to have impacted a new life for the valkyrie leader.
after that particular moment that happened, shu finds himself visiting the sewing room everyday to see if he could get to talk to you again. and of course, you were there like always. the male would love starting conversations with you, most of the time the topics were about dolls, why you liked making them, when you started, etc. you didn’t mind answering them, in fact it made you realized how much he loved talking about these creations. you would also show shu your works, and in return he would mend some clothes for them. teamwork etiquette was his favorite. such perfectness is what he liked to describe it. he loved every bit of the dolls you made, you even showed him some of your most hard works, which were antiques from your family doll shop. he asked if he could visit some time, and of course, you accepted.
this would happen everyday after classes, practice, or any time that was around the afternoon where the beautiful cotton candy clouds shaded with a soft orange would light up the skies ahead. there were times that you weren’t in the sewing room, and shu finds himself feeling a little disappointed. he rejected that thought, why would he feel so upset? you were both just acquaintances in that mere sewing room, it’s not like he sees you as anything else but a very talented doll maker.
that was a lie. since even mika couldn’t believed him when shu explained it to him one day when they both went out to dinner. “really now? then why are ya always visitin’ the sewing room even though ya got one yourself in yours? did it break again?” mika questions to him, pointing his straw at his figure. shu scoffs, avoiding his gaze away from his friend. “hmph, is it bad to check if they were doing ok in that sewing room? i just happen to always walk by there, that’s all,” he says, and mika hums, totally disagreeing in mind of what shu was saying.
your interaction with one another grew bigger and bigger in each day you would see him walk to the sewing room, and eventually one day…he confessed. god knows this was one of the most impossible things to happen in your life but…he really did. shu itsuki of valkyrie…confessed of how much he adored you and your passion for making dolls. and when the sweet words of mutual feelings came directly out from your lips, he couldn’t help but pull the both of you together for a sweet kiss. very unlikely of his actions. now, this was kind of a problem.
he is a famous idol of valkyrie. idols getting in relationships were a problem not just for the producers, but for the fans. they were often the main ones. you were afraid that if your relationship with the leader of arts were to be discovered, that would mean not just the bash and hate you would receive from the fans, but the separation of you both. you loved him, you really did. although, shu promised to you in his heart, that he would do his absolute best to hide his relationship with you. the only one who knew about this was his one and only, mika kagehira.
mika was a sweet guy, he hid his secret very well. not to mention he was also very kind to you. the two of them would visit your family doll shop, and shu being shu, would look at every doll displayed on the counters (with a notepad and a pen in his hand for some reason, probably criticizing your family’s works), he also likes to bring mademoiselle with him. he just made you fall for him even more, he was a funny guy when he acted like that. he sometimes visited your shop alone with mademoiselle always with him, and in his other palm, some handcrafted outfits for the dolls you make. they were always exquisite, and in return you’d give him a small kiss on the cheek. he’s cough as a way to be flustered and a way to hide the red behind his cheeks.
he loveddd complimenting your works all the time in every hour. this made you bashful most of the time, and he loved it when your face was beet red.
in return, while no one looked, you would grab a nearby notebook (which you use for writing down the names of each doll), and behind the cover would you kiss your boyfriend. he kisses back, cupping his hands on both of your cheeks.
at the end of the day, your works were his favorite out of all. he was glad to have someone like you stitched to his side.

ES x KFC - UNDEAD
Tumblr media
Writer: Mitsuki
Character(s): Tenshouin Eichi, Hibiki Wataru, Himemiya Tori, Fushimi Yuzuru
Translated by: jewwyfeesh
Proofed by: stcrfeesh
Season: Winter
Location: Staff Dining Hall
Adonis: Even though we’ve heard that the restaurant chain – the one that Anzu’s the ‘Special Store Manager’ of – is really popular, we weren’t expecting so many customers to turn up. It’s surprising. I’m sure the meat dishes here are exceptionally delicious.
Koga: That just means that there’s too many people comin’ in. Can you even handle all of this, Anzu?
Rei: Haha. The little miss’ expression says it all – she looks like she just met her saviours. Seems like we’ve arrived at the right time.
Koga: How ‘bout arrangin’ some work for us to do instead of rushin’ to thank us? Our relationship ain’t like that, we don’t needa be so uptight ‘bout the pleasantries and stuff.
Kaoru: For the Producer, arranging some work for idols to do should come naturally, right? Anzu-chan, you don’t need to worry your pretty little head over it. UNDEAD will be in your care from now on, so do as you see fit ♪
Adonis: Mm, just tell us what you need help with. I’m pretty strong, so manual labour can be left to me.
The number of customers had exceeded the amount of prepared ingredients, so more were ordered, and you need someone to help check them? Sure, I’ll head over now.
Koga: Hold on a sec, Anzu. Just lookin’ at yer face, it’s easy to tell you haven’t eaten. Just let Adonis and I check the orders. What’re we gonna do if the ‘Store Manager’ ends up starvin’ in’ere~?
Rei: It’s rare for Koga to be so considerate. It’s still best if the little miss takes a break for now; Kaoru-kun and I can handle things here.
Kaoru: That’s right~ both of us have some experience dealing with people, so Anzu-chan can be rest assured in leaving the store to us. Whether it’s taking orders or serving food, it’s a piece of cake!
Eh? Didn’t we already say you don’t need to thank us—
(Ah… not good! If Anzu-chan continues looking at me with those sparkling eyes, I won’t be able to talk to her properly…!)
Rei: Haha. The little miss’ gratitude has been adequately conveyed. So, let us show off our skills ♪
