I had Spider-Man 2 mailed to my house when I pre-ordered it and it hasn't arrived yet so I've just been spending my entire day dodging spoilery Youtube thumbnails like Tobey Maguire dodging Green Goblin's razor bats in slo-mo in that one scene.
#honestly i need to stop having games mailed to my house when i pre-order them cause it just makes it stressful to wait for them#like it just makes me nervous that they're just not gonna show up#even though that hasn't happened yet like i did the same thing with jedi survivor and mortal kombat 1 and they both arrived on the day#so like this one shouldn't be any different. ideally.#yet i get nervous about it anyway#i think part of it is these last few weeks in general have been incredibly stressful#two of the jobs i applied for got back to me at around the same time#and i gotta pick which one i wanna go forward with but i don't wanna burn bridges with either of them#so i'm basically just stringing them both along until i can pick one#and i'm still doing the online graphic design course but all the job shit is making it hard to stay caught up with that#AND i got a transaction notification for something i didn't purchase so i had to deactivate my credit card and get a new one#idk who got my credit card information or how or if i can get that money back but hopefully it doesn't happen again#basically i just need this damn game to get here on time so i'll have one less thing stressing me out#also another reason i need to stop having these games mailed to me is they always arrive in the afternoon#abd modern games take fucking forever to download onto the console#so even when you get them on the release day you gotta wait a billion hours to start playing#so when they arrive in the afternoon it basically means they won't finish downloading until well past midnight#so basically you judt gotta let it download overnight while you sleep and start it the next day#so yeah after this i should probably just go back to picking uo pre-orders at the store#especially when i get an apartment i wouldn't want the mail person just setting a $70 game on the floor outside my apartment while i'm gone#shut up tristan

GOING TO POUND TOWN WITH SUKUNA - HEADCANONS
Includes: fem!reader, degradation, choking, unprotected piv (wear condoms, you guys and ghouls) + a bit more typical sukuna shenanigans i think he'd do (headcanons, duh)
Note: genuinely have no clue how else to label it, just pure shameless smut (not proofread); @cafekitsune - banner
Tumblr media
¤ Sukuna isn't the one to play games with. Because that's his quirk.
¤ That abomination of a man/curse will have you all riled up and begging in a nick of time.
¤ Pinning you against any surface possible, calling you names because you're such a whiny mess after a single knuckle of his thick digit within your tight cunt, it makes him cackle.
¤ He's a natural at making you look truly pathetic, i'll give him that.
¤ He savors your pleas like they're a nectar made only for him, King of Curses, to devour.
(*coughs* God complex-)
¤ He also wants you to watch what he's doing to you. So, by any means, he will knock you up by the mirror and he WILL make you watch, whether you like it or not.
¤ Pinning you against the sink in the restroom of some club you went to unwind at with your friends; with a veiny hand on your throat as he coos sweet nothings in your ear way to delicately for someone who's about to tear your clothes off to shreds.
¤ The man just knows how to present himself, i'll give him that ×2.
¤ If there was a foreplay it was rather short and unnecessary because your panties were soaking wet from the start. Plus, Sukuna doesn't like to waste precious time on something so meaningless to him. He just sees and claims it all, no fucks given.
¤ But, ultimately, ALL fucks given.
¤ Thrusts in one deep stroke, clasping a hand over your mouth.
¤ Don't get him wrong, he thrives on your cries, but he doesn't need any unwanted attention.
¤ Despite that he will still snarl degrading stuff like "Such a vocal bitch. You want others to come and check out this sight, hm? Maybe i should ask them to join as well, how about that?" after which he'll cackle once more, seeing you so obediently trying to silence yourself with his cock buried balls deep into you.
¤ "That's what i thought. Now stop whining and take it all in."
¤ That man is a pest, and he's proud of it.
¤ He's anything but gentle. Groping your curves with such force it'll surely leave bruises.
¤ Sukuna is not fucking, he's Fucking with a capital F. Mercilessly, rough, like he's genuinely trying to break you.
¤ One hand still on your throat; squeezing tightly, not enough to choke you, but enough to make you gulp for air with teary eyes.
¤ Gojo and his "Are you cryin'?" is all sunshine and flowers compared to Sukuna's "Are you cryin'?" with that malicious grin of his.
¤ Once again, that man fucking enjoys making a babbling mess out of you. Because that's what you are today, you're a cumslut, his cumslut. Once and for all.
¤ Never lets you finish first. Like, NEVER.
¤ 'S just not your privilege, honey. By his point of view, you basically sold your body to his possession. So he'll be the one to enjoy the ride to the fullest, with your pathetic whines accompanying wet slaps of skin on skin like a wicked lewd orchestra.
¤ Hits that sweet spot with each thrust, so you're on a timed schedule here before the bubble bursts.
¤ That torment doesn't stop for a second as he chases his high. Sukuna is literally a wild beast and he makes it known.
¤ One thing he does, though, is let go of your throat just to dig his nails into your waist and hips. Because if he didn't, he'd probably snap your damn neck. The sheer force of his grip on your flesh is ungodly.
¤ Cums with a grunt or huff. Not a growl, that he did during the process and right in your ear. While his mouth kept running, of course.
(To think about it, he isn't the talkative type usually. But, oh, dirty talk? When he knows how desperate you are? Sign him up, first row, best seat with couch cushions, please.)
¤ It's a grunt of pure bliss. Head thrown back, chest raising and falling rapidly, eyes rolling into oblivion as they close shut, the whole package.
¤ He'll never admit it even if you saw it in the reflection. Gaslighting is his middle name, i'll give him that ×3.
¤ Also bucks his hips into yours to fill you up to the brim. There's no debate here, if he said you're taking it, you are. Mewl all you want, his cock will kiss your cervix one more time, before he once again denies you of your release and slips it out.
¤ Will stare as his seed drips down your pussy and thighs. It's mesmerizing to him, okay? Especially when you're all trembling and sobbing, that gets him off for round two.
¤ Whenever he's feeling generous, he will make it more enjoyable for you. Though his lovebites still leave bloody markings all over you.
¤ Also, if he's VERY generous, he will finger you. We've all seen what those hands can do, there's no point in denying it'll be divine.
¤ But your clit will literally hurt afterwards. Come on, it's Sukuna, you know the drill.
¤ Praising ain't his cup of tea, but, alas, if he feels gracious enough, he'll give you such courtesy as well. In his typical Sukuna style, of course.
¤ "Gambare, gambare... Serving me so well today. Good girl."
¤ After which he'll slap your pussy for good measure making you squeak and shudder.
¤ Aftercare is not about him, but he'll give you some time to recover. Mostly because he doesn't want anyone but him to see you like this. It's only his treasure to preserve and relish.
¤ All you're getting is another hungry kiss to seal your cursed pact for good, bad and dirty.
"Now... how about we ditch this place and get back home? I'm still... starving."

@goldensunsetchild Asked:
Hello there! I know that you might be busy right now but I wanted to let you know an idea that I have, greatly inspired by your post: spanish reader who gets homesick but instead of getting depressed by it starts to do things they used to do back on their world. Dancing to their traditional dances while singing their accompanying songs, teaching the children the games they used to play when they were younger and also telling folktales to everyone who is interested in listening to. If you decide to do this idea and want to incorporate things from Costa Rica, please let me know and I'll help you with anything you need (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠✧⁠*⁠。
Tumblr media
(Content under cut)
HELLO YES SORRY IT TOOK ME SO DAMN LONG TO GET TO THIS!! 😭 /gen
I went to Costa Rica back in highschool in 2018? I think, and when I tell you I FELL IN LOVEEEE <3333
Costa Rica is a beautiful country and everyone was really nice, vibes were immaculate 🤌 ✨
Sun: Costa Rican Reader! (you/they/them)
Stars: Sumeru cast
Comets & Meteors: Content Warnings: None known & Trigger Warnings: alcohol usage/drinking game.
Orbit: Headcanons-ish
when u first crash landed in Teyvat, people luckily recognized you from when u were a player!
and u took in whatever culture and traditions everyone was so excited to show you as they were kind enough to give u clothes/food/shelter etc.
butttt… it did get overwhelming after a few months, and u got homesick more and more often :(
after all there wasn’t really an equivalent country to Costa Rica, and you couldn’t just take a plane back home, you were stuck here for… however long it takes someone to leave a video game universe??
You decided to actually do smth abt the crippling depression and “outsider” feelings instead of just rotting away, and went to Sumeru to get closer to the greenery of your home,
it made you feel a little better, but it could be the best, so u decide to lowkey force everyone in Sumeru to convert to Costa Rican LMAO
so ofc u did the most logical thing to convert ppl to a culture, the food!
u helped fund a small restaurant full of classic Costa Rican foods (coughandsoyoucaneatitwheneveryouwantcough)
(u still have the insane mora leftover from what u had in game so ur basically one of the richest ppl in Teyvat ngl 💀)
u recreated just the basic gallo pinto/casado with what was available (some beans from Natlan and rice from Inazuma/Liyue, the Ajilenakh nut from Sumeru acc kinda acts like plantains :0 and local fish/greens for salad)
Needless to say Sumeru is fascinated by the new cuisine and esp since its not a secret that you’ve funded it/made the menu from your homeworld
Alhaitham orders the casado most of the time bc he “admires the exact proportions, its all the nutrients you need, perfectly balanced” NERDDD
Tighnari likes barbudos bc there's not a lot of egg dishes in Sumeru but there are a lot of greens, so he “likes the familiar in unique combinations!”
unsurprisingly, Cyno likes Chancelta bc he can pick it up, eat it quickly, and go on with his patrol
Collei, Kaveh (and secretly Dehya lol) really like being able to munch and snack on sugar cane, (and the plantain imitation desserts!)
(u found sugarcane deep in sumeru forests, it was like on ur world, but sweet flowers sprouted out of the stalks too!)
You decide the next phase was to introduce dances and other fun stuff!!
Nilou was literally shaking with excitement to learn the traditional dances <3 (and also getting ur permission to add fun twists or Sumeru elements to them)
the kids that like to hang around and watch the troupe practice (and join) absolutely got obsessed with swing criollo, it was so cute to watch them all pair up and kinda trip over their own feet trying the footwork out
(u may or may not have teared up bc the band learned how to play a Spanish song for u guys to dance to, just for you)
teaching the theater troupes musicians how to adapt upbeat songs like Caballito Nicoyano or Ticas Lindas
omg getting Nilou Kaveh Faruzan Cyno Dehya (and Dunyazard!) to do the calipso limonense always cheers you up, (which is why they are so eager to do it when ur feeling homesick ❤️‍🩹)
Kaveh steps on too many people’s toes, Dehya gets dizzy from the spins/turns easily, Faruzan keeps spinning for too long, Nilou and Dunyazard are actually secretly latina bc they're so good at it (did they outdo you?? no, no they couldn't possibly-)
and Cyno just really likes the little dance line everyone makes lol
speaking of the General Mahamatra
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
u CANNOT teach Cyno a new game from your home country, and expect him to NOT be the most competitive mf in Teyvat abt it
that's actually how u spread any games from back home, Cyno just does all the work for you and challenges ppl to things like jackses and no one knows what it is
which he then proceeds to strong arm them into learning and beat their asses at it
(yes Cyno wins against you a lot, sorry lmao)
You definitely had a drinking game centered around it one time and the consequences changed with each person who lost
like Cyno had to learn how to cook tamales that were edible, and more importantly..
Alhaitham had to at least attempt the swing criollo lol
(was it unfairly attractive? maybe. was watching Nilou, who was teaching him, and Alhaitham both do swing criollo 2x as attractive?? that's just for u and the Sumeru vision users to know)
SPEAKING OF ALHAITHAM
absolutely hilarious, yet also impressive?? how quickly he picked up ur slang
smug bastard picked it up based off sheer context/vibes too, u didn't even explain it to him, just u trying to go sit down in ur Costa Rican restaurant and he pulls u back before someone mows u down saying “hey, suave un toque-”
YOUR NECK FUCKING CRACKING BC U WHIPPED AROUND TO LOOK AT HIM SO FAST LMAOOO
(ngl u scared the fuck out of the poor scholar before he got all smug abt knowing slang)
accidentally spread this knowledge to other vision users bc he got in the habit of casually using it, tbh more often when ur not around lol (Alhaitham being caught having habits bc he's fond of other ppl?? never)
his favorite is “qué chante…😒 ” obv lol
so now the forest rangers use stuff like pura vida and tuanis sending each other off on patrols! Collei so cutely excited to explain to other Sumeru ppl or tourists where the words come from and what they mean, spreading ur Costa Rica agenda very well 👌
and the mahamatra like to use “Jale pa’la choza” when coming back from the desert to Sumeru city homebase! :)
ALSO bonus:
u absolutely got leyendas into the bedtime warning/ghost stories of the entirety of Sumeru children lmao
u start spooking kids like Dori (Nahida finds them fascinating)
and after awhile u notice Cyno and Dehya mentioning watching out at night for La Llorona or los cadejos 💀??
like you've genuinely made them paranoid, bc they wanna be sweethearts and protect you from them, like even if they don't believe they exist, they're worried you do and are trying to make u feel better lol <3
an iced coffee? for me?? :O 
Blessed be Costa Rica, such a lovely country when I went, and as soon as I got off the plane coming back the first thing I did was make a Costa Rican meal the best I could
like got my mom to prep from dry black beans and rice etc. as fresh as we could get (nowhere near costa rica level btw) and made fresh guac and fried plantain chips and salmon I think? literally cooked the first night back bc I knew I missed the food already/knew id get sick
and I was RIGHT, that food I made was fine, but any other American food so bad I got nauseous
I literally got sick COMING BACK TO THE U.S like 😨???!!! I knew it was bad but not THAT bad lmao
and the first meal I had after that was still a homecooked meal, like my mom made it💀
love the coffee from there too, we even ordered coffee from the farm we visited when I got back to US it was so good (10x better than American obv)
THANK YOU BTW GOLDEN!! FOR BEING SO PATIENT AND LOVELY TELLING ME ALL ABT COSTA RICA <3333
I hope this did some amount of justice to ur beautiful home! :)
Safe Travels Golden Child,
💀♒

hello!! i was wondering if i could request a reader who feels alienated and depressed because she is basically a loner at school and bakugou who goes out of his way to spend time with her, bringing her lunch to share and ends up confessing to her?
the days of the week
contains: fluff word count: 2.1k a/n: yes yes yesss,,, only i changed some things bc thats how it worked out in my head. also it's short and sweet, but i had fun drifting off from my wips and getting to put my mind on something new
Tumblr media
monday:
"What're you doing here?" you stared up from your book at Bakugou, who'd plopped himself down beside you.
It was lunchtime, and you'd found yourself outside under the tree near the end of the field, alone, as you'd been since the sports festival.
"Why? M'not allowed to eat lunch here?" he gave you a sneer as he raised his eyebrow.
"No," you rolled your eyes. "I was asking why you were here. You don't normally sit here, you sit inside with everyone else."
"So? Do I need a reason?"
"Nevermind," you shook your head, returning to your book.
"Yer not eating anything?" he started again after a moment of silence, and you looked up at him with despair.
"Does it matter?"
"Yeah, it fuckin' does," his eyes narrowed in your direction. "How the fuck am I supposed to beat you at your full power in training if you haven't even eaten anything?"
That's what this is about.
There were going to be one-on-one sparring sessions that day in training, and All Might (very fortunately) had disclosed everyone's partner ahead of time so that everyone had enough time to prepare for their opponent's quirk.
"Listen Bakugou, I'll make sure to put in my all, or whatever. I'm still fine without eating."
You found a part of yourself trying to appease him, despite the weird mind games he was playing. You knew it was just because of what he'd seen your quirk do in the sports festival — and why everyone in your class had practically dumped you, even if they were too scared to admit it — and because he was so obsessed with winning.
A bowl was suddenly nudged in front you, and you had to look up from your book again to see Bakugou giving you another look.
"M'not fighting you if you haven't eaten anything," he announced defiantly.
The look he was giving you made it seem as if you had lost the argument, especially since he was almost gloating as he raised his eyebrows as a way to force you to challenge him.
"Okay," you shrugged before turning back down. "Don't fight me then."
You heard him growl under his breath, and before you could internally celebrate your victory, your book was pulled out of your hands and you looked back up at him in shock.
"Listen here you shitty fuckin' extra," he snarled. "I am not going to miss out on training just because you decided to be a bitch and spite me. So eat yer damn food."
"Give me my book back."
"No."
"Give it back, Bakugou."
"Not gonna happen."
"Ugh! Just give it to me!"
"What are ya gonna do, extra? Fight me?" he taunted, and you quickly realized what he was playing at.
"Fucking fine!" you huffed, grabbing the bowl of ramen and downing it in under a minute. It wasn't hot, thankfully, since it'd been out for a while — and you looked back at Bakugou after finishing and wiping your mouth with the back of your wrist.
"Give. It."
He tossed the book back at you without a second thought, and you shot him a glare before letting out a breath when you realized that the page you were reading was still bookmarked.
Only Bakugou didn't leave after that. He sat there and chewed on his onigiri for the rest of the period before getting up a couple minutes before the bell rang.
Fuckin' weirdo.
. . .
tuesday:
"Yer still not eating anything?" Bakugou said as he placed his lunch tray on the grass next to where you were sitting, again.
After your match yesterday (where Bakugou had still won, obviously), you thought that he would leave you alone, since you weren't friends and he didn't have any reasons to talk to you besides your match.
"Why does it matter?" you looked up from your book, surprised. Why was he back?
"Because you need to eat," he rolled his eyes. "Isn't that fuckin' obvious?"
You resolved his statement with a glare that he didn't acknowledge, watching as he instead pushed half of a sandwich towards you before taking a bite of his curry.
"Why are you here?" you glanced between him and the sandwich.
"To eat. Isn't that obvious?"
"No, asshole. Why are you here?"
"Because I can."
"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should," you raised an eyebrow, watching as a vein popped out of his forehead when he turned to you.
"Listen extra," he dropped his chopsticks to point a finger at you. "I can sit wherever the fuck I want. Now shut the fuck up and eat your sandwich."
You gave him an unimpressed look before grabbing the sandwich and tearing the paper it was wrapped in harshly. You made sure that you bit and chewed into it aggressively, just wanting him to shut up so you could read your book but still let him know that you were angry about him coming and sitting next to you — but you were still a little hungry since you'd skipped breakfast that morning.
You didn't notice the little triumphant look Bakugou gave himself as he watched you from the side — angrily chewing the sandwich while your eyes scanned the page in front of you.
He'd won again.
. . .
wednesday:
"What's this lame ass book you've always got your nose stuck in?" Bakugou announced as he sat down next to you again, only you weren't as bothered by his presence as you'd been the day before.
You still let out an audible groan though when you looked up, watching as Bakugou slid over a plate with sushi before biting into his own salad.
"Why do you keep bringing me lunch?"
"I've told you this already," he rolled his eyes. "Use your fuckin' brain for once."
"No- Let me just.." you put your book down and stared at him. "I meant, why do you keep coming and sitting with me and bringing me lunch and stuff? I'm fine on my own."
"Answer my question first," he looked up from eating. "You didn't answer me."
"Just a romance," you rolled your eyes. "Now why do keep sitting with me?"
"The best friend was super shitty in that one," Bakugou mumbled in passing when he finally found himself noticing the title of the book, but his eyes widened in an instant to find a cat-like grin stretching across your face.
"How do you know that?" you asked him slyly.
"I don't know what you're talking about," he tried to seem nonchalant about it, looking back with a glare that was probably supposed to deter you from asking any further — but it seemed to have no weight when you willingly scooched closer to him.
"I clearly heard you Bakugou," you raised an eyebrow, watching as his eyes refused to look back down at the book cover again in definace.
"I didn't say anything."
You stared him down, this time watching as he crumbled, putting down his bowl before he spoke.
"I fuckin' read it before, okay?" he threw his arms up. "What else do you think happened? But if you tell another goddamn soul about this, I'm gonna kill you. Got it?"
"Yeah got it — I won't," you shrugged him off. "But what does she do?"
"Huh?"
"You said the best friend was shitty. What did she do?"
You watched Bakugou roll his his eyes before finally giving in, slumping against the tree trunk you always sat next to like he was letting the weight fall off his shoulders.
"Remember when she told the main character girl about the second guy liking her and all that."
"You mean Ryu?"
"Yeah that idiot — well she did it because she was trying to get the brother mad at the both of them so she could ask the main guy out instead," Bakugou went back to eating his salad smugly, watching as your face twisted into shock.
"Of course she wanted to get with Haru!" you stared at the book now sitting in the grass. "I thought it was so weird when she told her because it was so obvious she was already jealous about Haru not liking her."
"Yeah," Bakugou barely shrugged, taking another bite.
You'd forgotten about your question this time, but he wasn't sure he would be so lucky if you asked him again.
At least it was fun to talk about something he never got to.
.
.
.
thursday:
The fact that you were reading a different book today instantly caught Bakugou's attention as he sat down at your usual spot, two bento boxes in hand.
"What happened to the other one?" he gestured to the thicker, hardcover book.
"You basically spoiled it," you shrugged. "So I'm rereading a different one instead."
Bakugou didn't say anything as he slid a bento box over to you, pulling out his chopsticks as you put your book down.
"I didn't see bento's in the lunch room today. I was hoping for pizza actually."
"I'm not yer damn waiter. Just shut up and appreciate the food you're given," he rolled his eyes.
"Where'd you get them from though?" you asked as you opened the bento, a small smile creeping up at the neatly packed food inside.
"...I made 'em," he almost whispered, eyes strained as you took a bite of the salmon he made.
"It's good!" you looked up at him with wide eyes. "I didn't know you could cook so well."
"Of course I fuckin' can," he sneered, turning back to his box like he wasn't intently watching your reaction. "I'm the best cook in our class."
"I wouldn't be so sure," you raised an eyebrow. "Sato's actually really good at baking."
"That's not the same thing you idiot."
"Aren't they similar though?"
"No."
And it was silent again, the both of you eating under the tree until you finally spoke again.
"Why do you keep sitting with me, Bakugou?"
It was hard for Bakugou to look up after those words came off your lips in a nonchalant manner — how was he supposed to answer with the truth?
"Does it fuckin' matter?" he deflected. "Why're you always sitting alone then?"
"I dunno," you rolled your eyes as if the answer was obvious, your face scrunching when you realized his question was serious.
"You're being serious?" you asked with an almost gaped mouth.
"Does it look like I'm joking?"
"My quirk," you said like it was the most obvious thing in the world, and Bakugou only gave you a look of bewilderment.
"The sports festival?" you reiterated. "How I had that guy from Class B under my control and stuff?"
"So?" he looked away. "You did okay. It's not even like you won or anything."
"Do I really have to spell it out for you? People think my quirk is villainous."
It wasn't like Bakugou didn't notice the change in attitude towards you after the sports festival and the true nature of your quirk was revealed, but he really believed that the people around him were better than that.
He saw how the media was treating his own outbursts, and while in the tiniest way possible he could understand them — your reaction was unwarranted.
"Don't say shit like that," Bakugou looked up to you seriously. "If no one else around you can see that your quirk's good enough to become a hero, fuck 'em. They weren't worth being in your life anyways. Got that?"
You paused, seemingly unable to speak from the weight his words left hanging in the air — but you finally nodded slightly, picking up your book from where it was still open in the grass.
"Thanks."
.
.
.
friday:
You didn't startle today when Bakugou found his place beside you, nonchalantly turning the page without registering his existence. He couldn't help but let the silence linger — you looked peaceful while quietly reading — letting himself start eating his own lunch after pushing a plate in front of you.
Your book snapped shut after a couple moments, suddenly, and he could feel your eyes boring holes into the side of his head.
"Bakugou."
"Hmm?"
"Why do you keep eating lunch with me?"
But as soon as he opened his mouth to deflect, you interrupted him.
"And I know that it's not because you wanna make sure that I'm in top shape or whatever — and you can't deflect the question like every other time I've asked you this, okay?" You were staring at him seriously.
"Okay, you wanna know why?" he started, putting his chopsticks on his plate before turning towards you straight on. "I like you, Y/N — more than as a friend would."
You blinked at him, clearly startled by his response. "Why?"
"Whadd'ya mean why? Does there have to be reason?" He sneered. Were you being serious?
"But... My quirk..."
"Didn't I already tell you? Anyone who thinks that has shit for brains. Now shut up and eat your food."

Is It Working For You? Part 8 | Rooster x Reader
Just in case you need to start at the beginning or visit an earlier chapter, check out my Masterlist!
Summary: This is what happens when you and Bradley can't keep your hands off each other. 
Warnings: 18+ only, smut, angst, fluff, some swears, adult banter
Length: 3000 words
Pairing: Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw x Female Reader
Tumblr media
You woke up Saturday morning to the warmest, fuzziest feelings coursing through your body. It was like you had a date-hangover from the previous night with Bradley. The entire evening had been perfection. Hot sauce, a silent disco and thigh groping? It was like he knew things about you that you didn't even know about yourself. And you only met him a few weeks ago. 
Also, you were no longer disappointed that he'd dropped you off instead of coming inside with you. Sure, your horniness level was cranked up to an 11 now, but he had been so earnest, wanting you to take him seriously. 
And what he had told you about his parents? Fuck, a little piece of you had died inside when you learned what he'd been carrying with him basically his entire life. But you would gently hold onto this information, and treat it with respect, because Bradley didn't seem to have many people in his life that he trusted. 
You sashayed out to the kitchen and danced around the room. 
"Is he here?" Maria asked, eyes wide.
You giggled and took the eggs out of the refrigerator. "No, he's not here."
"He left already?"
"No! He didn't stay over," you told her, cracking two eggs and scrambling them in a bowl.
"If he didn't stay over, then how are you this happy looking?"
You went to retrieve the bottle of hot sauce from your purse as your eggs cooked. "Because I had the best evening ever, even though I didn't get laid. He told me he wants me to take him seriously, so he declined my offer to join me for the night. But he's picking me up in a while to go to the Padres game with some of his friends."
"Damn, girl. You got it bad."
You dumped the hot sauce all over your eggs and took a bite. "So, any chance I can kick you out for a while tomorrow?"
---------------------------------------
Bradley had jerked off so many times since last night, but he still felt unsatisfied just thinking about you and your body and your voice. "You could have had the real thing, asshole," he murmured to himself. 
He thought the date had gone really well, but he dated so infrequently, he wasn't actually sure. He was thankful he already had the safety net of the Padres game to use, since there might be a chance you were annoyed that he left you with a goodnight kiss instead of more. Plus he told you about his parents? On your first date? What the fuck was wrong with him?
But when you opened your door for him, your arms were instantly around his neck, and your lips locked with his.
"Hi," you whispered when you released him.
"I missed you," he said, shocking even himself as he admitted the truth. You looked so pleased with yourself, he just had to laugh.
"Did you? You didn't have to miss me. You could have stayed."
"Next time you ask me to, I'll stay."
"Maybe tomorrow night?" you whispered.
Bradley just smiled at you. He smiled the whole way to the ball game, and he smiled as you met up with Phoenix and Bob and took your seats.
"How much do I owe you for the ticket?" you asked Phoenix once you were settled and the first pitch had been thrown. 
"Oh, you don't. Rooster paid for it."
"You didn't have to do that," you told him.
"I wanted to," he replied as he tried to stretch out his legs, but he was too big for the little folding stadium seats.
"Does anyone see the guys who walk around with Cracker Jacks?" Bob asked from the other side of Phoenix, craning his neck in every direction.
She leaned in closer to you. "What do you say, next time we ditch the boys and go out for a girls day?"
You nodded enthusiastically. "Yes, absolutely! It's not too late to do that now. We could ditch these two and probably go sweet talk our way into some box seats."
"Really, Sweetheart? I'm sitting right here," Bradley said, slinging his arm around your shoulders, kissing your neck and generally encroaching on your personal space. 
Phoenix looked on with interest. "So, I guess your date went well then? Bradley basically told me it was the best night of his life. Isn't that right, Soul Sister?" Phoenix asked and you started cracking up at the nickname. "Oh, you told her about Soul Sister?"
"Yeah," Bradley groaned. "And now I'm seriously wishing I hadn't."
Phoenix just laughed harder at the look Bradley was giving you.
"The date was kind of perfect, although he did coerce me into coming today really early on in the evening, so I think he might have been nervous."
"Once again, I am sitting right here," Bradley said, but something else caught your attention.
"Oh! There he is!" You launched out of your seat and jumped over Bradley's legs into the aisle.
"What the hell?" Bradley called as you ran down the ramp and back up the other stairs. "Where is she going?"
Phoenix shrugged and leaned across your now empty seat and told Bradley, "If you manage to mess this up, I'll be so pissed at you. I really like her."
You returned a moment later, squeezing yourself back over Bradley's lap, hands filled with Cracker Jack boxes. "Here you go, Bob." 
"Oh, I really like her, too," Bob said as he opened a box.
--------------------------------------------
An hour later and you were snuggled up on Bradley's shoulder while he played with your hair. All four of you had been snacking on Cracker Jacks and drinking some beer, adding your own color commentary to the game.
"This team is terrible, has anyone even hit a single yet?" Phoenix asked.
"No," you, Bradley and Bob all replied at the same time.
"I think it's because they don't actually have any fans, because nobody is actually from San Diego," Bob added.
Then a romantic song started playing in the stadium, and you tilted your head to look up at Bradley. He was already smiling back at you.
"Oh my God, you guys are on the Kiss Cam!" Phoenix squealed. 
You sat up a little straighter and saw that yes, indeed, you and Bradley were on the gigantic screen. People started chanting for you to kiss.
"What do you say, Sweetheart?" he said with a laugh, sliding his hand from your shoulder to the back of your neck and sitting up straighter. You reached for his face, running your hand across his cheek and leaning in to place a soft kiss on his lips. He held you against him, deepening the kiss. The chanting all around you turned to cheers, and you and Bradley started laughing, foreheads pressed together. 
As soon as you started to separate, the camera panned back to you both. "Again?" you asked, but the camera did not switch to anyone else.
"Give the people what they want!" yelled Phoenix, and then more chanting started.
This time Bradley leaned all the way into your space and kissed you hard. Your hands ended up in his hair, and one of his landed on your knee and then crept higher. He eased his mouth back just enough to slip his tongue between your lips. The crowd was cheering louder for you than for the baseball game.
"We're going to get kicked out for corruption of minors," you gasped when his lips connected with your neck.
"That's the camera operator's fault, not ours," Bradley replied while sliding his hand further up your leg, and the camera finally landed on a new couple. 
-------------------------------------------
After the game, the four of you made it to the Hard Deck. Bradley wasn't sure whether or not you would want to walk in with him, because it was almost a given that some of your colleagues would be there. He'd been on his best behavior at the game since you were with Phoenix and Bob. Well, other than the Kiss Cam leg groping and corruption of minors. He couldn't help it that he wanted to touch you all the time. 
You walked into the bar with him and then said, "I'm going to go catch up with Maria and Cam. Apparently some old friends shipped in this week. I'll see you in a bit," and vanished off to the bar. This would have been fine. All of this would have been just fine, except that a few minutes later, after he lost a game of darts and sat down with a beer, Bradley saw you chatting with a guy. Your back was to Bradley, so he had a great view of the guy smiling at you and looking down your shirt. 
"What the hell?" he muttered, and Phoenix turned to see what he was looking at.
Then the guy ran his hand up and down your arm, and Bradley saw red. "Who the fuck does he think he is?" he asked, jerking up from the stool he was sitting on. 
Phoenix tried to push him back into his seat. "Let her take care of it, she's a big girl. Besides, she doesn't exactly look happy about him touching her."
"Then he shouldn't be doing it," Bradley said through clenched teeth. He watched you shift a bit, and then he was able to see your face. You looked irritated as you pulled the idiot's hand off of you and placed it firmly at his side. But then the asshole leaned in toward you, even though you were inching away from him.
The guy was tall, but not taller than Bradley, and he looked nowhere near as strong. It was never a good idea to underestimate someone physically, but Bradley was totally game for kicking his ass. "If he touches her again, I'm going to kick the shit out of him," he said, in a very calm voice.
"Stop it! You're not going to hit anyone," Phoenix said, trying to push him back toward the dartboard, but all she managed to do was slow him down a bit.
The guy reached out like he was going to touch you again, and Bradley was instantly there.
"Hey buddy, do you have a problem?"
You turned to face Bradley, gently placing a hand on his shirt, grounding him. "It's okay, Rooster. Can I meet you outside by your car? In five minutes? I'll be there in five, I promise." Your voice sounded pleading but steady.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"Yes."
The last thing Bradley wanted to do was leave you alone with this guy, but then he noticed that Cam and Maria were both watching things unfold from nearby. He nodded at Cam who nodded back, then Bradley headed for the door.
---------------------------------------
"So you're fucking that guy now?" Kyle asked as soon as Bradley was out of earshot. Of course he waited until Bradley was gone, because he was probably afraid of getting his ass kicked. "Jesus, I've been on a carrier for two months, and this is the shit I come back to? I gave you some space and time, and you told me when I got back we could date."
"I never said that, Kyle. I broke things off when you left, because it wasn't working for me."
"We're good together."
"We have never been together. We were just hooking up. You've got to leave me alone. Seriously Kyle, just fuck off."
You stormed over to your friends. "Next time, a heads up would be nice!" you hissed.
"We just got here, babe. We didn't know," Maria said.
Cam was already walking toward Kyle. "I'll go talk to him. I don't know why he's being like this."
"Shit," you muttered, stalking out to the parking lot. It had already been more than five minutes. You marched across the parking lot to the last aisle. You could see Bradley in the fading light, arms crossed as he leaned against the Bronco and glared at the ground. 
When you approached him quickly, he looked up. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, of course. I'm fine," you promised with a smile.
"It's been seven minutes. I was about to storm back in there," Bradley said, and you could tell he was only half joking. "Who the hell is that asshole?"
"Kyle. He's nobody. I met him through Cam." You forced yourself into Bradley's arms, and he opened them for you, holding you against him. 
"You dated him?"
"No, we um... we didn't date. I was just-"
"Hooking up?" Bradley asked, rubbing circles across your back.
"Yeah," you whispered, embarrassed.
"He seems a little desperate to be with you."
"Yeah," you agreed with a laugh, running your fingers across the long scar on his neck. "He seems to think he can bully me into a relationship."
"I really really want to go back in there and give him an attitude adjustment. Would that be okay with you? I could at least threaten him with a bad time. I can get Hangman and Coyote to back me up, scare the shit out of him."
"No, I want you out here with me," you said, pressing up on your tiptoes to kiss him. "Please?"
Bradley groaned at the word please tacked on to the request, and spun you around so your back was against the Bronco. "Anything you want, Baby Girl."
"I want you to kiss me." His lips were on yours instantly, kissing you so sweetly. "I want you to touch me, too," you managed, and then his hands were right there, easing up your hips and inside the bottom of your shirt. 
His calloused hands were rough against the smooth skin of your waist. His mustache was rough against your lips and cheeks. His raspy voice was rough as he asked you Like this, baby?
But everything about his demeanor right now was still so soft, so sweet. 
"Yes," you hissed, and with one word, it felt like you gave him permission to give you everything you wanted. His right hand slid around to your lower back, fingertips just barely dipping into your jean shorts, pulling you against him. His left hand continued upward, over your bare stomach, and cupping you over your bra. 
He was rock hard as he was slowly grinding against you, and even through several layers of clothing you could tell he was huge. "Bradley, Roo-" He gently bit your neck as his fingers yanked down your bra cups, teasing your nipples. "Oh."
A distant part of your brain registered that you were still in the parking lot of the Hard Deck, but it was pretty dark, and you couldn't muster up much of a fuck to give about being seen at the moment. Because Bradley's fingers just slid to the front of your shorts, undid them, and delved into your underwear.
"Are we going to do this right here?" you whined, because his fingers were right there, so close, but not quite close enough.
Bradley spun you around so your back was to him. You braced yourself against the Bronco with both hands as he pinned your body between his chest and his hand, which was now completely inside the front of your underwear. "Is this what you want? You want me to finger you right here, where anyone could see?" he asked as he slid his middle finger slowly over your soaking wet clit before gently slipping it inside you.
"Yes, please. Please, Bradley," you moaned.
He grinned against the side of your neck, licking the spot he had bit earlier. "What a filthy little thing my Baby Girl is. Filthy, and so wet," he rasped, letting you ride his finger while he pushed your hair aside and kissed the back of your neck. "You are so wet for me."
You could only manage to moan as his index finger joined his middle, stretching you, causing you to arch your back. It had been ages since anyone turned you on as much as Bradley Bradshaw did.
"Shit," Bradley hissed as your ass bumped against his hips in a steady rhythm as he fucked you with his fingers. Your head ended up tilted back against his shoulder, and Bradley kissed your mouth hard as his thumb relentlessly circled your clit, your cries quieted by his lips. His left hand wrenched its way further up your shirt squeezing your nipples which were still peeking out above your bra. 
Then he nudged your legs further apart with his knee to give himself a deeper angle, and those long fingers bent inside you, hitting just the right spot. "Oh, that feels good," you managed to say, and then you were spiraling. You clamped down around him, riding out your orgasm, babbling a bunch of incoherent nonsense against his lips. 
You leaned back against his chest, still unable to speak in actual sentences, but loving the feel of his huge body behind yours. "You're such a good girl, Sweetheart," Bradley told you as your breathing started to return to normal. "So good."
Then he withdrew his hand from your shorts and spun you back to face him, and you watched him lick his fingers clean of your wetness. 
"God damn, Y/N. I love the way you taste," he rasped, and you were instantly in his arms, tongue between his lips, dying to taste yourself in his mouth. It was overwhelming what this man was able to do to you. 
You heard some chatter as a group of people were walking to their cars, and Bradley carefully put some space between your bodies. Then he zipped and buttoned the front of your shorts for you.
After placing a sweet kiss on your cheek, he took you by the hand and started walking.
"Where are we going?" you were finally able to ask.
"We're going to go back inside and have a drink, and every time any other man so much as looks at you, you're going to think about how good it feels to have my fingers inside you."

I have 300 followers! What?! That's wild! Thank you everyone! I hope you enjoyed this bit of smut, and keep in mind, there could be smut lurking around any corner at this point! 18+ only here, people! Also, has anyone noticed that I've basically turned the Bronco into a character in this story? It just has a lot of personality, okay?
And a shoutout to @gretagerwigsmuse for being lovely, because without her being cool, I would have scrapped this whole chapter. Go read her awesome stuff!

Could you do—Garten of Banban Characters reacting to WereGator!Reader going through the games events to find their nieces? (Same principle as a Werewolf, just with them being able to turn into an alligator. They can semi-shift sharper claws or more menacing eyes.)
Monsters are secretly intermingled with normal society. They just tend to stay out of sight or hide their otherness to blend in. Cause humans are crazy population wise to them, seriously eight billion?! No lone species wants to get that many humans ticked off/scared of them. Reader was really wary of letting their sister-in-law leave her daughters at the daycare. Sure, it catered to monster kids but something was always a bit off… Weregators have strong nurturing instincts when it comes to their or any family member’s kids. The worry was just brushed away as that being in overdrive…
Reader goes through the various puzzles a bit aggressively (never destroying anything outright but Banban can see them barely controlling their strength/shifts).
Oh I love this!! I'll just be doing 4 characters
.......
Banban
You had your suspicions about letting your nieces get dropped off at the kindergarten during "Bring-A-Friend Day".
Your sister-in-law didn't see the problem. Sure, the place was apparently creating living, breathing mascots and likely violating all moral/ethical codes in doing so...but she thought it was fine.
Lab-bred monsters interacting with the natural monsterkind living quietly in the outside world? Surely nothing could go wrong...
Until it did and you found yourself going to this place to find your two nieces.
They weren't even your own children, though as a weregator your nurturing instincts went into overdrive the moment you heard of their disappearance.
And it's for that reason you'd be....quite aggressive and direct in how you solved the strange puzzles throughout the facility.
Nothing pissed you off more than the drone--as sometimes it refused to cooperate.
You came close to smashing the controller numerous times.
You meet Banban after he tries knocking you out, but he's stunned when you barely flinch and tackle him, eyes turning reptilian, alligator claws growing on your hands, and patches of your skin turning to scales.
And you growl angrily, threatening his very existence.
But since he shares Untham's fascination with monsterkind, he just stares at you like you're some spectacle, totally fearless.
"My, what big claws you have....sorry, bad joke-"
"Shut it, "Banban"." You snarl. "Where are my nieces?! I swear if you did anything to them-"
"I've done nothing to them. In fact, I feel terrible about what's been going on here. And that's why I want to help you find them."
"You do..?" You blink. "Then why did you attack me?"
"It's hard to explain. Sometimes I lose control over myself...I truly am sorry about that. Now could you let me go? I think doing that will benefit both of us."
"...how?"
"I promise I'll help you the whole way. Believe me, I've tried helping others before you, but...they were humans. Held back by fear and lack of physical endurance. You, however, stand a chance. But you'll need some guidance. This place is huge, after all."
You were surprised by his offer, albeit cautious of his intentions.
In the end, you let him go as killing him wasn't gonna bring you anywhere closer to your nieces.
He oversees your journey and helps where he can, although he cringes when you damn near shatter the glass panels when solving certain puzzles or fully shift into your gator form when you're trying to fight of Nabnab....
Or when Banban turns into his "hellish" form and tries attacking you, with you leaving some pretty deep scratches on his skin.
Once he snaps out of it, he's like "omg you're just like me fr, we both have trouble taming the beasts within ourselves-"
You take full offense to that and remind him that you're both nothing alike.
Opila Bird Up
She basically fucked around and found out when she first confronted you.
Her screeches of intimidation turned to shrieks of fear the second you shifted into your gator form, causing her to stumble and fall into the abyss where the ball pit once was.
So for the most part..she left you alone after that.
Even Banban was impressed.
When you put her babies back into their nest, she's at first terrified that you were going to eat them....yet you had no intentions of doing so as you calmly greet her before leaving.
Even though she's been aggressive and instigated your transformation in the first place, you saw her younglings as you would your own.
You'd never think to harm them even though everything here so far has tried to harm you.
And soon a shaky alliance was formed, but only because you two shared the common instinct to protect your kin.
The turning point was when you saved Tarta and Opila from being crushed by Jumbo Josh--you literally held up his fist in your gator form so the couple could flee the fight.
Even he was shocked
That's when Opila knew you were someone who could be trusted to the fullest.
Ya'll know how some species of wading birds have gators as their "bodyguards"?
This is where you and her family are at right now. You'll fight tooth and nail to defend them.
She trusts you with her chicks and knows they're in good hands (or claws, rather).
Your end goal was still finding your nieces, but you'll save whatever children you could along the way. Human or monster or both.
Banbaleena
You weren't inclined to sit in some uncomfortable plastic chair and get schooled by this "teacher".
First she saved you from Opila Bird and now she's basically holding you hostage, confiscating your drone.
At this point you're over it. You're wasting precious time here when your nieces could be in serious trouble.
When Banbaleena threatened to tear you into pieces the next time you're "late", you snap right back at her with "how about I tear you into pieces instead?"
As you say this, you show your claws, scales, and reptilian eyes so she knew exactly what she was dealing with.
Suddenly her strict demeanor goes away and she puts you at the "mean kids" table right away.
You suspected her donor feared monsterkind, a trait that was transferred directly to her, as she keeps stuttering when giving the next lesson and deciding you're correct even if you pressed the "wrong" answer.
She can't even look you in the eye and shakily asks you to be gentle with the tape recorders.
Yet she still calls you a "bad student" for leaving and attempts to give chase, but it doesn't last long and she gives up rather quickly.
She hasn't dealt with anyone who stood up to her and lived to tell the tale.
Especially a weregator.
Bittergiggle
He's not intimidated by you in the slightest.
You could partially-shift or even fully shift into your weregator form and this jester will find ways to make jokes out of it.
Besides stopping you from interfering with his plans to make the queen laugh, his goal is to make you laugh, too.
He knows killing you by himself is no longer feasible so he's gonna be an annoying mf who stalls you with bad jokes.
"What do you call an alligator examining a crime scene? An investi-gator!!"
"What's the difference between a crocodile and an alligator? You'll see one in a while, and you'll see the other later!"
When you don't laugh, it just irritates him a lot and he storms away.
He sets Kittysaurus upon you and is shocked when you manage to subdue her with ease.
Not by letting her ram into the walls over and over, but by throwing her into those walls/buttons yourself.
Never did you think you'd wind up in this situation when all you wanted was answers as to where your nieces went....
But you'll be damned if you let some clown and dino-cat hybrid stop you from finding them.
It's actually quite funny when you come back to the kingdom's throne room and see Bittergiggle throwing an absolute FIT because you once again stopped him from telling his joke to the queen.
And I mean stomping, waving his arms, hitting the floor, etc. Just a full-blown tantrum.
"Wow, even my nieces are more mature than you smh"

Worm Arc 17 thoughts:
Travelers backstory!!!!!!!!! WOOOO!!!!!!
HOLY SHIT THEY ARE FROM EARTH ALEPH! That really explains the mysterious nature of their backstory up to now.
Would have loved to get some PoV's from some people who aren't Trickster but I'll live.
He's just such an asshole! Like I already knew he was but god DAMN did this arc remove any doubt.
Just the worst type of asshole that can be found in MOBA games (I say this as someone who played MOBA games for years). And then given superpowers. Ugh.
THE SIMURGH FUCKING HELL OH MY GOD I LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!
SHE IS MY FAVORITE ENDBRINGER AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS EVEN IF SHE IS SUPER DUPER EVIL AND TERRIBLE! BUT SHE JUST SINGS IN EVERYONE'S HEADS AND THEY SEE THINGS THAT SHE WANTS THEM TO SEE AND SHE SEES THE FUTURE AND CREATES A CAUSE AND EFFECT PLAGUE BASICALLY AND I LOVE HER!!
Just the level of planning ahead she does, the number of moves ahead Simmy is playing. After the first few times she shows up they start quarantining where she attacks. Which ends up being exactly the right situation needed to push the Travelers to the choices she wanted them to make. Like, is quarantining even a counter to the Smurph or is it exactly what she wanted?
Sure precogs mess with precogs. That makes sense. But I don't know that it is as clear cut as Coil presented to Trickster. He implies two precogs just cancel each other out, but I assume it's more of a strength thing - a strong precog will cancel out a weak precog, but a weak precog will only make things a little fuzzier for a strong precog. So having Dinah would have helped against the Simurgh but I don't think it would be enough to just cancel out the Simurgh's power. Coil and Tattletale would probably also help. But I'm not convinced the last few months in Brockton Bay hasn't been more or less what Simmy wanted to happen.
Cody is the only person here that is probably more of an asshole than Krouse. Just could not get over the fact that Noelle didn't want to date him. Unbearably entitled dick. Possibly dead now, if Accord got his way. But very possibly not. Won't be surprised if he shows up again.
Cody's power is fun. I think it's the first "time travel" power I've seen. I mean Clockblocker does time freezing which is basically the same category but still, curious to see if we get any more level of time travel than this.
Marissa needs someone to make her some cookies and give her a place to hang out that isn't the house her mom lives in. I mean, I guess the current situation handles that but not how I meant.
I already liked Jess and now I like her even more. She's a cape geek! Wonderful.
Luke is interesting cause he was the only person besides Noelle who was close to Krouse at the start, but he's the first (well, aside from Cody I guess) to leave him. Really went through a character arc. Also Krouse lists Luke's "individual tragedy" as "not getting to fly" which is hysterical.
Oliver is a trans girl. Headcanon 100% established. It just fits so well. She just needs to find herself! And once she does and realizes what she actually wants to look like her power will get her there and won't need to keep adjusting! Right now Oliver's power is doing performative masculinity for them.
Noelle has had a bad time. God damn. She was having a bad time before everything happened and now she's having a very bad time. Damn. I had some guesses about her correct. Figured she was like, monstrous bottom half and normal top half. And figured touching her was bad. But I didn't foresee "touching her creates mutated evil clones". I'm sure that won't be a major problem in the next arc or two. I'm sure there won't be evil mutated clones of a bunch of capes to deal with . . .
I had long figured Travelers had Cauldron powers. It just fit with their power levels and such. I had also figured whatever Noelle's condition was, it was related to having a Cauldron power. I had a lot of guesses. None of them were "only drinks half a vial". For some reason I thought everyone would be too smart to do THAT! (I have no idea why I thought that.)
Current guess is Noelle is sort of in a never ending "trigger" event. Her power is constantly in the "building and gathering" phase and is not reaching the "lock things down" phase that normally happens (Bonesaw talked about this). Definitely a lot of other things it could be, this is just the best fit I've found so far.
This goes for Oliver too, which is why their power keeps changing how they look. Oliver just got lucky and has much less significant troubles compared to Noelle.
Got to see lots of new Case 53's. That was fun.
I expect to see more of Accord in the future. Just cause like, he gets smarter the more complex the problem. And the world is supposedly going to end due to (I think) the actions of higher dimensional entities. That is a very complex problem. And at the same time, he seems like the kind of person that might see "billions die" as a good way to reduce chaos. To simplify the world. Not saying that is what he will do, just that it seems a shame to not bring him up again.
I knew 40 people had died due to actions of the Travelers. I did not know Noelle had eaten them all! Because she tried to starve herself. I can see why it's important to keep her well fed. And why it's going to be an issue that there is no longer someone providing her with thousands of dollars of meat a week. No waste though, she has a very efficient digestive system.
The ending, with Trickster just staring at the bloodstain left behind by Coil's body while Genesis stares out at the ocean ... very good. I mean, really sucks for them, but it was a very evocative arc ending.
I wonder who won the Ransack tournament? One team disconnected because the building they were in disappeared into a space hole. I wonder what the rules are for that?

So glancing between the original games and the third - again - and thinking about the difference between the feral and Chosen bad endings and how I'm going to interpret them in my own canon. BG3 lore is irrelevant to me from now on I'm entering the phase where I'm assimilating my playthrough into my own Realms canon.
Also, Durge appears to be soulless. I am aware of the way the game treats Durge as though they have a soul, but BG3 makes strange choices where lore doesn't match up all the damn time. Astarion is clinically dead but the rest mechanics still need food. BG3 talks like Wyll is a devil, and they definitely don't have mortal souls. Dark Urge identity crises and complicated relationship with personhood, how I love thee.
Major BG2 spoilers, so I'll put that under a cut just in case anybody would like to play those games blind.
I noticed this a while back, but Durge's situation is reminiscent of a soulless Bhaalspawn. When their soul - the portion of them that is "them" and not entirely Bhaal - is removed they start displaying the same symptoms and slipping into what is basically the feral ending, judging by Imoen's behaviour:
"Who-who... who is that? Keep back... Keep back! [...] Who is Imoen? I don't know that name. I don't know that name! She's not here! [...] Get away from me! I'll... I'll kill you! I'll rip your eyes from your filthy faces! Do not tempt my wrath! Do not... I... she's not here. I do not know that... name. [...] I see... yes... I see... She's not here... Someone else will come..."
We have dizzy spells and risks of blackouts (otherwise known as Bhaal threatening to take over):
"Your step falters, your vision spins, and you feel something is very wrong. For an instant you are conscious of nothing but the rushing of your blood."
Bhaal literally just assuming direct control rather than flooding you with the urge to murder. Also pain caused by said attempt at taking control:
"A shock of pain passes through your body, and you feel you mind slipping away, forced aside by the darkness within." - "Your blood cools, and mind and body are reunited under your control. Your will had faltered, and the essence of Bhaal was there to take advantage. The void where your soul once was overflowed with murderous fury, the mark of a deity that no longer exists. The taint of Bhaal has affected you differently than Imoen, reacting with your strength of will. You will eventually lose yourself unless your stolen soul is restored. A fate, as they say, worse than death." - "The madness fades, and the essence retreats, but if this continues you will lose not only yourself , but also everything you hold dear. The uncertainty of your condition has obviously worried those you travel with. The quest is treacherous enough without having to worry about what you might do."
Most Bhaalspawn have mortal lineage and were left to develop their own identities until they hit adulthood and Bhaal decided it was time to start pushing them into killing each other as part of the resurrection plan. Their souls are explicitly divine in nature, but they had time and freedom to develop those souls. Each demigod is a potential fledgling god.
The soul and the conscious mind aren't the same thing, so personality and decision making can continue but the emotions and personhood are... not quite there, only the echoes of it. It's been compared to wearing a mask and acting out a part in a play, rather than actually living as that person.
Durge it seems was engineered from the very beginning so that they would never have that chance. Created directly from Bhaal, with no other parent (let alone a mortal one) to dilute him; Bhaal started forcing their hand to kill from a far younger age (before puberty) rather than waiting for them to reach adulthood. and Sceleritas was following them closely ensuring that people would be around to have "accidents", like Alfira.
But it's also notable that Bhaal doesn't just want a puppet, he needs a Bhaalspawn with the drive and power to be his avatar. He somehow needs Durge blindly loyal and lacking in independence but also in possession of "strength of will" to be worthy of/able to house and use his power.
It seems that Durge does not have a soul the way their siblings do, all they have to resist Bhaal with is their mind and sheer willpower. If they disappoint Bhaal then he will simply assume control - something he can do any time he likes. Over the course of BG3 they start developing something like their own soul - judging by the way Bhaal and Sceleritas are still in touch and seemingly testing them, I can only assume this is actually according to plan; Durge is supposed to cultivate a spark of their own divine soul over the journey (and also get tadpoled and help Bhaal take over the Netherbrain and thralls through them, as Sceleritas kind of mentions).
If they fail then Bhaal goes for the feral ending; they go into the "Imoen" category where they're not worthy of his attention and he just uses Durge as a puppet.
Mystra can't force mortals to become her Chosen, they must consent, so possibly that rule applies to Bhaal too? I don't know, but it explains why Bhaal needs them to accept. If they resist then they're clearly strong enough to be worthy but wilful enough that Bhaal decides the risk of that spark of a soul is too great a risk to him and his plans and tries to destroy it but fails because it's too late, and Jergal cuts this fledgling divine soul free.
If they accept becoming Chosen then they are agreeing to be imbued with a fragment of Bhaal's divine essence. Bhaal gets what he wants and merges it with another fragment of his divine essence, presumably setting the stage for him to become a full deity walking the face Toril through Durge's/his body. The fledgling spark of individual is lost in Bhaal when the two fuse; the threat of the resist ending isn't present, because that spark is gone, so if you defy him again he just takes over and we get the punishment ending.

It Wasn't Me! (A fic about Mikey's dorayaki getting stolen while some of Toman's founders are hanging out)
♡ SFW, use of nicknames, cursing, mentions of arson, false accusations/Mikey blaming everyone for stealing, set in an au where Shinichiro survives Kazutora hitting him and everything is peachy keen between the founders, just a random idea that popped in my head ♡
Characters: Mikey, Draken, Kazutora, Mitsuya, Takemichi
Mentions of: Pah-Chin, Baji, and Shinichiro
❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀
Mitsuya sat on the couch in the corner of Toman's hideout, scribbling away in his design journal before noticing something strange. "Draken?" Draken looked up from the book he was reading. "Yea Suya? What is it?" "Isn't it oddly quiet?" "You know what, now that you mention it, it is-" "WHO TOOK IT?" Mikey's voice reverberated throughout the hideout, interrupting Draken mid-sentence.
"I knew it was too good to be true." Mitsuya closed his journal and placed it on the couch before getting up to go with Draken to investigate Mikey's sudden outburst. "What's wrong now Mikey?" "I'll tell you what's wrong! There's a thief in our midst!" "What got stolen?" The boys turned around, surprised by Kazutora's sudden appearance. "What the fuck Tora, you scared the hell outta us! Where did you even come from?
"I was just out riding around on my bike, I needed to clear my head. So...is anybody gonna say what got stolen or is it a guessing game?" Draken and Mitsuya turned back to face Mikey, awaiting his response. "What got stolen is my dorayaki. Some scoundrel came in here and got their dirty hands on it!" "Are you fucking serious right now? I'm sitting back down, this is just ridiculous." "That's what you were yelling about? I promise you it's not that serious." "Yes it is! Takemitchy-kun brought it for me earlier and I was planning on eating it right now, but I obviously can't cause it's gone!" "It's not like you're gonna die without it, just relax."
"What do you mean relax? I can't relax with a thief running around!" "Well who do you think stole it?" "Pah hasn't been here, so you can rule him out." Draken yelled from the couch. "You know what? It was probably Baji, he does illegal stuff all the time." "Mikey you can't just go around accusing people who aren't here to defend themselves." "Exactly, you're basically just slandering him." "He literally lights cars on fire, can you really blame me for suspecting someone with a criminal record?" "I hate to admit it, but he's got a point."
"Oh shut up Draken!" "Okay let's calm it down a bit. Mikey, I think you're placing the blame on Baji because you're too lazy to actually do any detective work." Mikey crossed his arms and stared sheepishly at the ground. Mitsuya was right, no matter how much Mikey wished he wasn't. "Okay fine, I admit that I'm lazy. I guess Baji didn't do it." As the words left his mouth, Mikey looked up in sudden realization. "If it wasn't him, then it must've been one of you!"
"Oh that's just fantastic, are we gonna be playing the blame game all day? Why the hell would we steal your dorayaki? "I don't know, maybe to piss me off." "Well I don't have any reason to wanna piss you off and I was enjoying the peace and quiet, so I definitely wouldn't steal anything from you knowing you'd have an outburst." "I'm with Suya on this one, nobody wants to hear your damn mouth while they're trying to read."
Mikey turned his attention towards Kazutora, loading up his accusation. "Then it must've been you Kazutora!" "I literally just got here like 10 minutes ago dumbass, how could I steal it?" "I don't know, but I need someone to blame!" "Hey guys, what's up?" Takemichi wandered through the door of the hideout, oblivious to the situation plaguing his friends. "And the plot thickens." "Nothing much Takemichi, just Mikey blaming everyone for stealing his dorayaki." "I haven't blamed everyone, just you guys." "You say that as if it makes it any better." "Dorayaki? You mean the one I brought for you?" "Yes and someone snatched it up!"
Takemichi just stood there and laughed awkwardly, giving the boys a chance to notice the bag he held in his hand. "Takemichi, that wouldn't happen to be Mikey's dorayaki in that bag would it?" "Yeah it is, he forgot to grab it before he left." "Wow, so he really just accused everyone for no reason. That's crazy." "Mikey you owe all of us an apology."
Feeling guilty and embarrassed at his own behavior, Mikey shuffled his way over to Takemichi, taking the bag out of his hand. "Thanks Takemitchy." Mikey turned around and faced the guys, who were actively expecting an apology. "Guys..." Mikey took a long pause before continuing. "I'm not sorry." He walked out the door, too stubborn to admit he was wrong.
"I wish I would've hit him with those bolt cutters instead of Shinichiro."

L0v3 M3
Tumblr media
Summary: You're both each other's escape but he can't tell you who he really is... Pairing: y/n x idol Yeonjun Word Count: 4.2k~ Warnings: Like one or two curse words lmao... that's it a/n: Requested by a lovely anon <3 I hope you like it :)
🟢  y/n is online
🟢 Yejun is online
Yejun: How's your day been? I haven't heard from you today :/
y/n: I am so sorry Yejun! Things have been pretty hectic at work and I wasn't even able to eat lunch today :(
Yejun: Oh my gosh that's horrible! How are you feeling? You must be exhausted! Have you eaten yet?
y/n: *send picture of your favorite food* Yup! I figured I would treat myself today!
Yejun: You definitely deserve it after the crazy day you had!
y/n: Enough about me though, how have you been? Did you do anything fun today? I know you said it was your day off so I hope you did :)
Yejun: Not really, I hung out with one of my roommates since we both ended up having today off so we just played some video games.
y/n: Oh did you guys try out that new game you said was coming out soon?
Yejun: Yeah we did! It came out on Friday but we didn't have time to check it out until now so it was fun trying to figure it out together. 
y/n: Did you win?
Yejun: Of course
y/n: As expected from my champion <3
I smile down at my phone after rereading your message for the 10th time before responding. "What are you smiling at?" Beomgyu says walking into the living room after waking up from his nap. "Nothing" I say locking and putting away my phone before another ding rings out notifying the both of us (unfortunately) of another one of your messages coming through.
"Doesn't look like it's nothing" Beomgyu says tilting his head trying to see my phone hidden behind my back. "Well either way it isn't any of your business I say defensively. "Yeonjun be honest, you're still talking to that girl aren't you?" he says, obviously disappointed in me. 
"So what? What's wrong with that?" I say continuing to defend myself. "She doesn't know who you are right? You know it could cause a huge scandal if-" "I'm being careful. But no, she doesn't know who I am. I know better than that" I say hoping the conversation is over and we can move onto something else. "You better..." he says trailing off.
"What's that supposed to mean? Last time I checked I was the hyung here. You really think you can talk to me like that?" I spit out getting fed up with him. "Okay I'm sorry I'll stop bugging you about it damn" he mumbles. "I'm sick of your disrespect Beomgyu. When are you gonna sto-" "Yeonjun that's enough" Soobin says walking into our dorm trying to defuse the situation. 
"You know what I'm done, I'm leaving" I say walking towards the door and heading outside. Luckily some of our staff are still hanging around outside since they had just dropped Soobin off. "Can you take me for a drive? I just need to get out of my head for a while" I ask knowing that taking a walk instead isn't really possible with my current idol status.
The staff nods and opens the car door for me before going over to the drivers side. "Do you have anywhere you would like to go or just somewhere away from the city?" he suggests and I'm happy to hear that he's able to read my mind. "Away from the city please, I need to get away from all the chaos" to which he nods and starts the car doing just as I had asked. 
I pull out my phone after our drive is underway and I remember that I had left you on read.
🟡 Yejun is busy → 🟢 Yejun is online
🟡 y/n is busy
The last message you had sent me was asking if I had any plans for the rest of the night. I'll be honest I downloaded this app with the intention of pretending to be someone else. I just wanted to be a normal guy, talking to normal people and having normal conversations. But when you're an idol that privilege gets ripped away from you and you don't realize how much you're going to miss it until it's too late. So my name on here is Yejun and he's basically me except with a new face and a new name.
Choi Yejun, Yes I know very creative but I did't want to lie too much
Age: 24
Birthday: September 12th which isn't a complete lie because it's the 12th in America but the 13th in Korea
Height: 6ft, yes I did add on an inch okay, sue me!
Blood Type: A
MBTI: ENFP
Education: Batchelor's degree in Music with a minor in dance. This one however is a lie laced with some truth okay, let me have this one. 
I got the pictures of "Yejun" off of instagram after looking through hundreds of accounts, trying to find one that fit my vibe. Luckily the account that I take the pictures from belongs to a very very narcissistic guy so I'm constantly getting new picture to send you if I need to. Do I feel bad lying to you? Yes of course.
I wasn't even planning on keeping this account for long. I just wanted to try and use it as some sort of escape. We met by chance and somehow along the way we just started messaging each other everyday and it's gotten to the point that I feel like there's something missing if I haven't heard from you that day. 
Some days are busier than others and I hate it. I wish I could just spend the day with you. Not just messaging you on my phone or computer but really spend time with you, in person. Somewhere along the way I started to fall for you. Don't ask me why or how, it kind of just, happened. I noticed it when I started to compare every woman I encountered to you, and none of them could live up to what you mean to me. Call me crazy but something in me is holding out the hope that someday we can be together, or at least meet. 
We've been talking to each other for months but I'm afraid that when I finally gain the courage to call you that you'll recognize my voice and that could be the beginning of the end for us. You're not even into Kpop like that, let alone my team (it hurt my ego a little bit but I got over it) but it still scares me. My attention is soon brought back to my phone as I see that you've come back online and responded to my message.
🟡 y/n is busy → 🟢 y/n is active
🟢 Yejun is active 
 Yejun: Hey sorry I got busy there for a second but no I'm free for the rest of the night. What about you? 
y/n: I'm free as well :)
Yejun: Good
y/n: Good?
Yejun: Yeah because you can pay attention to me after neglecting me all day :(
y/n: I already told you I was busyyyyyy 
Yejun: Yeah I know I was just teasing
y/n: If it makes you feel any better I really missed you <3
My breath hitches a bit at the confession. It's nothing big but for some reason it has my heart racing nonetheless.
Yejun: Yeah you better! But I missed you more ;)
y/n: Good, what are you up to?
Yejun: Nothing really, just relaxing, trying to clear my head.
y/n: Oh, is there something wrong?
Yejun: It's just that things have gotten really busy at work and I feel like I'm being stretched way too thin.
y/n: Could you maybe talk to your boss? See if there's anyways that someone could help you out?
Yejun: There's already four other people working with me so they can't really afford to spare anyone else. Plus it would throw us all off if someone else did join this late in the game. 
y/n: Oh okay that's understandable. You guys don't want to mess up the synergy you have going on right?
I smile happy that you're starting to understand me and my world without really knowing it. 
Yejun: Exactly! I couldn't have put it better myself :)
y/n: You know you can tell me anything right? I know that you like to keep things to yourself about you work and everything but if you're struggling with say your friends or you're feeling down then I'm always here <3
Yejun: Thank you y/n I really appreciate you and our friendship so much! You have no idea how much you've helped me since we first met. Life for me is just so fast paced so it's really nice to have someone who likes me for me and not for what I can do for them you know?
y/n: I totally understand, I feel the same way about you. Even though we haven't met in person I feel like you're the best friend I've ever had. Like a true friend, so thank you Yejun. You've made my days so much brighter and my nights so peaceful. I just don't know what I would do without you.
It's really me that needs you. Everything in my life from the age of 15 to 19 has been about debuting and now that I have it's just, well I don't know, things are just not the way I thought they would be. Seeing my Sunbaes debut before me just made me so excited at the prospects of someday following in their footsteps. I kept counting the days, waiting for that time to come when they would finally tell us we were going to debut. 
I was the first member of the team that would become Tomorrow x Together and the other guys trickled in bit by bit in 2016 and soon we were put together. It still took us about three years until we debuted but we worked hard every single day until we finally made it! 
A few months after we debuted though the pandemic hit, and everything about the way that idols and idol groups promoted their music and performed had completely changed. The day they told us that BTS had to postpone their world tour was the day that I knew everything was going to change.
It was hard being a new idol group and not being able to get the love, energy and support that most groups get. It just makes all of the hard work worth it when you get to see the look on people's faces and hear them cheering for you. Although my idol journey hasn't been the same as idol groups that debuted before me I wouldn't change it for the world.
The pandemic brought our team closer, but it also pushed us apart at times. Having to live together with the uncertainty of it all was nerve wrecking. It's all thanks to our Moa though, they really kept us going when times got tough. But even after the pandemic started to calm down I just couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing, that I had lost something and I wasn't sure how to find it. That's when I found you.
I had wanted to find some way I could escape from this whole idol world and just be me. Not Tomorrow x Together Yeonjun, just me Choi Yeonjun the kid who worked so hard for his dream and made it come true. I want people to like me for me, but things started to change with the people around me when I debuted. Some idols would try to befriend me, only to get closer to BTS and the friends that I had made before when I was still a trainee started to treat me differently now that I was "famous". 
The members of BTS and especially Namjoon hyung really helped me navigate this whole scene and always gave me the best advice. I watched them grow, from their tiny debut showcase and their even smaller fan meet, to their first win with I Need U. Everyday since the beginning I've seen what they're capable of and I want us to be that kind of group someday too.
Thanks to them they've opened up a lot of doors not only for us but for the whole industry. I'm always thinking of them and how much I've grown to love an support them, I always have and I always will. Plus they're all just so hilarious, they never fail to bring a smile to my face and I could never thank them enough. 
I know I'm rambling but those are the thoughts that go through my head when I try to process my life these days. There are days I want to say "Fuck this" and just leave, but there are other days that I just couldn't imagine myself doing anything else. It's come to a point where I don't think I could go on without being a part of this team, and that's gotten really unhealthy for me. This whole mindset I've found myself trapped in for these past few weeks has been utterly exhausting and the only thing that's kept me going has been you. 
I know I have my members and Moa and the company to rely on but I just want to be seen as a person, not an idol or an asset, just me. You've really brought me back down and helped me embrace my humanity again, as dramatic as that sounds it really is true. It's easy getting wrapped up in the glitz and the glamor of it all but having you really reminded me that I'm still my own person apart from all of this. It's just, I don't know...freeing I guess? Being able to just be myself, but I hate that I can't be my true self with you. 
I've adopted this persona that I have to stick to, for both of our safety. It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I want to keep you away from all of this and keep your view of me as the same guy you've known this whole time. Yes with a new face and some tweaked physical traits but it's still me. I hope that someday if we get to meet that you won't hold it against me. I hope you'll realize that It was safer this way because I really want to keep you in my life but only for as long as you let me. 
y/n: Are you still there?
Yejun: Yeah I'm sorry I've got my head stuck in the clouds but I really do feel the same way :)
y/n: What's got you so distracted?
Yejun: Just life I just can't seem to separate myself from work you know? My work life balance isn't the best but unfortunately with the kind of job I have it's pretty much impossible to do so. 
y/n: I swear you get more and more cryptic everyday 
Yejun: I'm sorry I'll stop talking about it. What are you up to?
y/n: Nothing really, I just put on a show that I've seen before as background noise but I really have kept my night clear to talk to you and I'm glad it worked out :)
Yejun: Me too, but hey I have a question for you. Well more of a proposition...
y/n: You're scaring me but I'm all ears
Yejun: Would you maybe be free to talk right now? I just really need to hear your voice.
I've told you time and time again that I didn't feel comfortable talking on the phone but I think I need to make an exception for this time.
y/n: Are you sure? I mean yes I would love to talk to you but I just know you've been uncomfortable with the idea of calling but yes! Call whenever :)
I ask the staff to pull over into a pretty much abandoned parking lot hoping this will provide me with enough privacy. I step out of the car and let him know that I'm going to take a call and it might take a while, to which he nods and tells me not to wander off too far. 
My thumb hovers over the call button for a few moments before I finally take a deep breath and press it to start a call. It rings a few times and I can feel the anxiety build with every ring that plays until I hear a click telling me you've picked up. 
"Yejun?" I hear your voice resounds melodically.
"Um yeah hi" I say in english. Us living in different countries has also proved to be an obstacle in our relationship but it's honestly for the best. 
"Oh my gosh is it really you? I can't believe I'm actually hearing your voice!" you say clearly excited which releases so much tension I've been holding in my body all day. 
You've sent me voice notes before and if I'm honest I listen to them about twice a day but who knew that something as simple as actually speaking to you could make me feel so at peace. 
"Me neither, I don't know why I was so scared to call you but I'm so happy we are finally doing it" I say feeling like a new layer has been added onto our relationship.
"Me too, you've been sounding really down today though. I know you've already told me about it but is there anything I can do to help?" you ask.
"No it's okay love, why don't you tell me about your day instead?" I let out and start looking up at the stars. 
"Love?" you repeat, clearly surprised.
"Shit I mean-"
"No it's okay, I like it" you respond and I can hear how shy you've gotten from the accidental term of endearment.
"Really?" I ask now feeling embarrassed but also happy that you don't mind if I call you that. 
I've gotta try out other pet names to see how they will make you react because even if I can't see you I can clearly tell you're blushing. 
"Really" you say and the line goes silent for a while, neither of us knowing what we should say next. 
"So are you gonna tell me about your day silly?" I resort to, amused by your shyness. 
"Oh right, well when I got there this morning we..." you say telling me every little thing you could think about that had happened you today, and I mean it when I say that you tell me every detail but I can't help but find it incredibly endearing. 
"Yejun?" you say catching me off guard, I'm not really used to responding to that name when it's said aloud so it took me a second. 
"Hmm?" I hum in acknowledgement having lost track of your story.
"Were you even listening to me?" you laugh, clearly knowing the answer already.
I list off a few things that I had thought I had heard but unfortunately had gotten wrong.
"Yeah you said something about spilling your tea on yourself while you were at home and had to change again before you left right?"
"It was actually coffee and I spilled it on my coworker and they had to send it out for dry cleaning but luckily he keeps a spare set of clothes at his desk"
"Oh yeah and he said that you had to give him the money to pay for the dry cleaning"
"No he was really chill about it and I offered to buy him lunch as an apology so I went to go pick something up for us on our break so it would be ready for us during lunch"
"Right right and you went to go get fried chicken and they took forever" 
"I swear your mind is something else because it sounds like you know the plot but somewhere along the way lost all the details of the story" you say laughing at me and I know know now that I got it bad. I know it might seem foolish to say that I'm in love with someone that I haven't even met but there's just something about you.
"I'm sorry love, I just really love the sound of your voice so I kind of got lost in it. I'm not ignoring you I promise I guess that I'm just getting a little tired"
"Oh so I'm boring you to sleep?" you say sternly
"No y/n that's not what I meant I-"
"I know, I just wanted to hear how you would sound when you were panicked" 
"You're mean" I pout, really feeling scared that I already messed things up between us.
"Aw you love me" you say so simply that I choke on air before my mind can even fully process what she had just said.
"You okay over there?" you laugh clearly amused at my reactions to your teasing. 
"Yep *cough cough* all good" I say trying to calm myself down, this is so embarrassing, I don't even know how to respond to subtle flirting from you. It's come so easily to me when I'm with my members and even Moas but I guess since I don't have feelings for any of them like I do with you it's just a little more nerve wracking.
"Maybe I should let you go so you can get some sleep. It's probably really late over there right?" 
"Yeah I guess you're right. I just wish that the time difference didn't make things so difficult for us" I say taking a deep breath in and letting it out to calm myself. 
"Me too, but we finally spoke on the phone so at least that's something! We should do this more often!" you say trying to cheer me up. 
"Definitely! I'll let you know next time I'm free to call and you do the same for me okay? Maybe we could squeeze each other into our schedules a bit more" I say hopeful that something like that might work. 
"Sounds good. Goodnight Yejun" you let out in a melancholy tone.
"Have a good rest of your day love" I finish before hanging up. 
After finally getting back to the city and making our way to the dorm I'm reminded of the way I left in the middle of an argument. 
"Are you going to be okay Yeonjun?" the staff asks, clearly concerned knowing that something set off the need for this impromptu trip. "Yeah I just lost my temper but I'll be fine. Thank you for tonight, I know I kept you out for a lot longer than you're used to". "It's okay kid, I knew you needed it. Let me know if you need anymore late night drives again. Oh and Yeonjun" he calls out before I'm able to close the door. "I hope she's worth it" he says with a sad smile, clearly aware of what had just happened. "She is, don't worry" I say giving him a shy smile in return. "Have a good night, get home safe" I say and close the door after we finished saying our goodbyes. 
Walking in the door I'm greeted by the sight of Beomgyu sitting in the living room with a dim light providing us with a soft golden glow. "I really don't want to hear it tonight" I say starting to make my way to my room. "Please, I just want to apologize" he lets out, clearly remorseful. I stop in my tracks and think for a second before finally caving and sitting down on the seat opposite of him and wait for him to continue. 
"I'm sorry for the way I spoke to you today, it was uncalled for and I know that" he says pausing, giving me a chance to respond. "I know you're just concerned for the team and you're right, we have a duty to each other as a team but also we have a duty to each other as people. This has been going on for months and no one else has found out besides you because you're nosy" I say smiling at him, showing him a playful attitude rather than an accusatory one.
"I'm being careful don't worry okay? I wouldn't jeopardize the team like that. As much as it hurts me to have to keep my life a secret from her, she's very understanding about it all and isn't pushing me to tell her anything. Just please let me have this Gyu, I've got it under control" I say hoping we can leave it at that. "Okay, I trust you" he says and we sit in silence for a while until he speaks up. 
"You spoke to her on the phone tonight didn't you?" he asks with a sly smile. "No...yes...how do you know?" I ask confused as to how he could read me so quickly. "Because you looked so happy when you came in here verses how you left. A miracle had to have happened to curb that temper" he says clearly happy he was right. "Goodnight Beomgyu" I say and get up to make moves to go to bed, rolling my eyes at his cheekiness before I smack him upside the head and run off with him yelling and running after me. 
"Choi Yeonjun" I hear being yelled from inside of Soobin's room clearly having been woken up by our shenanigans. "Goodnight everyone" I yell back and close the door and lock it behind me providing me safety for the rest of the night. I let out and breath and shrug off the jacket I had been wearing and throw it on my desk chair and I soon hear a quite notification pop up and confused as to who it might be I pull out my phone right away and I smile instantly reading the message over and over and over again.

can you make a scenario where gojo s/o is having a bad day and is sad so he go's and takes her out to cheer her up and he acting like his goofy self trying to make her laugh by telling her the most stupid pickup lines and saying horrible jokes (lots of fluff please!)
please and thank you!
Ahhhh finally a fluff request 😌 my hand slipped, hard
Contents: hella fluff, female reader, Satoru fluff, Satoru gets to be Satoru, bad pickup lines, terrible jokes, a game that leads to a wonderful prize at the end (spoiler alert it's not sex!)
Word Count: 3,798
Not really suitable for minors but there's no sex so read at your own discretion.
Fic begins under the break
You kicked the door to your apartment closed behind you and tossed your keys into the bowl on the nearby table where they went. Work had been terrible today. You slipped off your shoes and left them by the front door, before fishing your phone from your little clutch purse, which you also tossed in the bowl with your keys. As you meandered to the couch you scrolled your contacts to find your boyfriend's name. When Gojo, Satoru scrolled up you tapped on it and hit the call button.
"Hello sweet thing, I need just a minute before you can have all of my attention," he answered panting softly. You heard a couple of grunts and the sounds of blows deflecting off of his infinity. You yourself might not be a sorcerer, but your boyfriend did tell you about things after you had been together for a year. Now you were headed towards three years.
"Really Gojo Sensei you're going to answer your phone during a sparring session," you heard Megumi grunt out, but it was a bit muffled through the phone, as his blows deflected off infinity again.
"Yes because it's my amazing girlfriend," Satoru huffed out in a teasing tone and you could imagine him dodging backwards effortlessly on one foot. Sure, you had never seen him fight but he pulled the same dodging technique on you, when he had earned a chastising smack from you and wanted to taunt you more, instead of letting your blow deflect off of infinity. You smiled as you flopped down onto your couch, but the day you had had filled your mind and that smile quickly disappeared.
"Alright darling I'm all yours now," Satoru said his voice a bit lower but much steadier than before.
"I've had a really bad day. The boss rejected my presentation on how to move forward with the new project and accepted stupid Kaito's proposal instead. Which was basically a direct rip off of mine, with like three things changed," you said as you tossed an arm over your eyes. If it had been anyone other than your rival it wouldn't have hit this hard, but he had decided to sink to a new low this time.
"Oh, I'll be there in a few minutes. My girl needs cheering up," he said and you could almost see his face behind your closed eyes. The way his nose scrunched up with effort as he realized he was going to be teleporting that far.
"Okay but I'm warning you now, I'm not in the mood for sex," you sighed.
"And who said it was going to be about sex. I do have a side that isn't just pure sex," he cooed into the phone. You shook your head and giggled a little bit.
"Oh, we both know it's still 80% of what you think about," you teased back to him.
"Ouch baby girl that hurt. Also knock knock I'm here," he said at the same time as two knocks sounded on your front door. You pushed off the couch and shook your head again. A few minutes my ass, you thought.
"Damn teleporting sorcerer," you teased again before hanging up and pulling the door open.
"You know you love that I can teleport, don't deny it," he teased back as he pushed into your apartment, only just stepping inside the hallway. His hands swiped your keys from the bowl where they stayed and he smiled widely. It wasn't often he wore sunglasses, but today seemed like one of those rare days. He pulled them down his nose just enough that you could see his sparkling eyes over the tops.
"Go put on something less formal and then we are going out," he explained as he dangled the keys from his finger and leaned against your still open door.
"Satoru darling, I don't want to go out. I wanna cuddle and watch bad TV and eat junk," you whined and he just smiled more.
"Nope. I'm taking you on a date so go get changed and no more objections," he said firmly.
"Ugh fine but close my door, you're letting my ac out," you said as you turned to head for your room. Once inside you opened your closet and dug through your clothes. It was a warm summer day, so you were stuck deciding between a red sundress and a blue one, when you heard a cough from behind you.
"Let me guess, the blue one because it matches your eyes?" you prompted him. He smiled that wide smile, the one that made the corners of his eyes crinkle, and he nodded.
"Damn right baby," he said in a sultry tone. You quickly shed off the button-down shirt and pencil skirt right in front of him. It's not like he had never seen you undressed before, you had been together for three years after all, but he still reacted the same way.
"Oh, my heart," he gasped out as he clutched his chest dramatically. He feigned swooning into the doorframe and you couldn't help but chuckle. You pulled the blue dress over your head and shot him a playful glare.
"You've seen me like this plenty of times," you said as you shook your head but you still giggled because he wasn't done, apparently. Once the dress was hugging your body he started to pant like a dog. He pulled the glasses off and bit the end of one side in mock seduction.
"Oh, my lord Satoru," you scoffed out but couldn't help the smile on your face. He stopped his antics but was also still smiling.
"You're just as sexy every time Princess, I can't help that you make me go feral over the simplest things," he said and his voice was laced with real seduction this time. You shook your head and smiled as you pulled on a simple pair of sandals.
"Come on you animal, you said a date and I'm holding you to that," you giggled as you pushed past him in the doorway. He pushed his sunglasses back into place and waited until you turned to check if he was following you.
"Yes ma'am," he teased as he gave you a really bad mock salute. You laughed again and shook your head some more, causing the tight bun you kept your hair in to loosen a bit. He started after you and when he caught up he scooped your hand up in his.
Once you were in your car, with Satoru behind the wheel at his insistence, you couldn’t help the way your mind drifted back to work. You had gone first with your presentation, and even the board members present had loved it. Then Kaito had gone. Everyone had easily glared over the fact that his presentation was a direct copy of his because of the three changes. They were shady but saved the company thousands of Yen.
“I can tell you’re thinking about your day again,” Satoru said as he placed a hand on your knee. He squeezed it reassuringly and you gave him a small smile.
“It just sucks that they gave into doing shady shit in the sake of saving money, right in front of my face Toru,” you huffed out before staring out your window.
“Alright, that’s it it’s time to turn the Gojo, Satoru charm up to an eleven,” he said rather proudly.
“You’re third person speechifying again,” you said trying to hide your smile.
“And you’re using alliterations like Scrooge McDuck again,” he said in a really terrible Scottish accent. You laughed loudly and turned to look at him. His eyes flickered over to you, though he didn’t really need to look at you, and smiled.
“You are so fucking terrible with accents, it’s like the one thing you’re actually really bad at,” you said still laughing.
“You love my bad accents,” he teased.
“I do. Also-,” you started but he held up a finger.
“Don’t do it,” he warned playfully.
“That wasn’t technically-,” he cut you off by pressing the finger to your lips. You kissed it and he chuckled. You gently grabbed his wrist and pulled his hand away a little bit.
“That wasn’t technically an alliteration dear,” you finished as you squeezed his hand in yours.
“Why must you hurt me in these ways,” he joked as he brought the car to a stop in front of a large building, that didn’t look abandoned but it also didn’t look occupied.
“Where are we?” you asked as you tried to crane your neck to get a good look at the front of the building but it gave away none of its secrets.
“This is an amazing little place I discovered on my own one day. You’re going to love it,” was all he said before he got out of the car to pay for the street parking.
“Your adventure awaits my Princess,” he announced as he opened your door, held out a hand for you and bowed comically low. You blushed but accepted his hand as you got out of the car.
“Must you be so dramatic?” you asked and this earned you a playful glare from over the top of his sunglasses.
“I must if it means you smile, laugh and forget about your bad day,” he stated as he tugged you forward by your hand. You followed him through the tinted glass doors and once inside your jaw hit the floor.
You had been in a few cat cafes but none like this. There was the usual low tables, cushioned floor seats, cat trees, dozens of cats and even more toys. But this place was also an indoor garden. The lighting, that wasn’t for the plants specifically, was fairy lights. Ivy covered the walls. Every kind of flower that wasn’t deadly to cats grew in pots and planter boxes everywhere. A few trees stretched up to the high ceiling and you could see platforms built into the trees. A net stretched underneath the whole platform as well as the rope bridge style stairs leading up.
“I want to sit up there,” you said breathlessly as you couldn’t help but smile.
“I knew you would,” was all he said before flagging down a waitress. You took in every last flower and cat you could lay your eyes on as she led you to the stairs to go up to the treehouse seating. If it wasn’t for Gojo’s hand in yours you would have either been left behind or ran face first into some kind of obstacle you might have missed from not paying attention.
Once you were up on the treehouse level you noticed that there were in fact, cats up here as well as Sakura blossom bonsais on every table. You turned to look at Satoru who only smiled brightly again as he saw the excitement in your eyes.
No sooner than you sat down an orange cat climbed in your lap, curled up and started purring. The waitress looked at the cat in amazement for a few seconds before handing Satoru the drink menus.
“Sorry for staring it’s just that’s one of our more temperamental cats, so it’s incredibly rare to see him interact with anyone let alone start purring that fast,” she explained. You blushed as you scratched the cat behind his ears. You watched as his eyes slowly shut and felt his purr intensify in your lap.
“So alcoholic or non alcoholic,” Satoru asked and you looked up to notice the waitress had already left.
“I’d really like some tea after the day I’ve had,” you said as you looked down at your drink menu and saw it was basically a small book. Satoru reached over and opened it right to the teas section.
“You just pick your flavor and they bring you the tea, a pot of hot water, a little set up to keep the water hot, obviously cups, cream or milk and sugar or alternative sweeteners,” he explained as you looked over the large selection of teas.
“Are you two ready to order your drinks?” the waitress asked as you had gotten halfway through the tea selection. You had decided on what you wanted within the first page and we’re just checking out the rest of the selection, while keeping one hand constantly petting the cat who had since fallen asleep.
“I’ll take a bottle of rosé for the table,” Satoru said. You looked up and raised an eyebrow at him.
“And I’ll have the mint and lavender tea,” you said as you handed the drink menu back. She wrote down your drinks and disappeared again.
“Why the rosé of all things,” you asked voicing your earlier eyebrow raise.
“Because I actually like the way it tastes and wine drunk me is more flirty and less horny,” he explained. A white cat with black patches all over it climbed up onto the table and nudged Satoru’s hand. He absentmindedly rubbed the cats cheeks as he kept looking at you.
“That makes sense,” you said as you felt something nudge your side. You looked down to see an all-white, very fluffy cat with bright blue eyes looking up at you. It meowed at you before headbutting your side again.
“The only rule with the cats here is you aren’t allowed to just pick them up randomly. If they come to you and you pick them up to hold or move from your table that’s fine,” Gojo explained while you adjusted your hands to pet both of the cats. You thought about it for a second before you scooped up the white cat, who seemed to want this exact thing, and turned her face to Satoru’s. You could feel when you picked her up that she was pregnant.
“Look Toru she’s got your eyes,” you said and he just smiled more. Unbeknownst to you those words had sent a daydream crashing into Satoru’s head, one in which you were holding a tiny newborn baby girl and saying the same thing. He shook the sweet thought from his head and smiled even harder as he watched you coo at the white cat. She was even pushing her face into yours.
“I want to play a game,” he said plainly and set his phone in the middle of the table.
“Okay Jigsaw,” you responded with a snort of laughter as you set the white cat in your lap next to the orange one who was still sleeping. Neither cat seemed bothered by the others presence and you secretly wondered if the orange cat was the father of the white cats kittens, because how cute would those babies be.
“In all seriousness I have an idea. I’m going to tell you bad jokes, good jokes, cheesy pick-up lines, and bad pick-up lines. If you laugh I get a point, if you don’t laugh you get a point. Whoever wins gets final say on which one of these three apartments we will be moving into together,” he said and held up his phone where you could see three tabs opened on the browser. You could just barely see different parts of each apartment before he set the phone back down.
“Wait are you asking me to move in with you?” you asked as the waitress reappeared with a small tray in her hands. She silently set down your tea stuff and Satoru’s wine before backing away.
“I am but I’m also turning it into a game so I can help you completely forget about today. Plus, it gives me an excuse to watch you laugh and cringe,” he said as he popped open his wine. He poured half a glass before taking a sip.
“That sounds like so much fun, I’m so in,” you said. His grin nearly split his face in two and he pulled his sunglasses off. He laid them on the table and picked up his phone. One hand stayed on the patched cat that had yet to leave your table.
“Oh, that’s a good one,” he mused before clearing his throat, “You look familiar. Were we eve in the same class before? I could swear we had chemistry.” His eyes met yours halfway through the pickup line not wanting to miss your reaction.
“Okay that was actually really good,” you giggled out as the female cat fell asleep with her head resting on the back on the orange cat. You knew they were at least comfortable with each other because the orange cat never stopped purring in his sleep.
“Score one for Gojo,” he said as you rolled your eyes at the third person speech again. The waitress appeared with small menus in her hands and waited for you two to acknowledge her.
“Would you two like our appetizer menu or our pastries menu,” she asked once you looked up at her.
“Appetizers,” you said.
“Pastries,” Satoru said at the exact same time. The waitress blushed a little bit and handed you both the menu you had requested before bowing and leaving again.
“Roses are red,” Satoru started as you looked over the menu, “violets are blue. With a smile like that, looks like I’m doomed,” he read out dramatically. You simply smiled and stuck out your tongue.
“That one’s just facts babe,” you said earning a huff from him.
“Point for Y/N,” he said and thumbed through the menu for a few seconds. You had decided on a small sample platter with your favorite types of foods on it and poured yourself more tea.
“I’m learning about important dates in history. Want to be one of them~?” He watched you expectantly. You let out a loud snort and choked on your tea.
“Point Gojo,” he said as he laughed at the tea running down your chin. He reached over and cleaned your chin with a napkin before you could even start to reach for one. You kissed his fingers in thanks.
This went on for a little while as you placed your first food order and waited for it. Satoru would tell you a cheesy pickup line and you’d either laugh or cringe. When the food showed up you two put the game on hold to eat in comfortable silence, all three cats at your table were now asleep.
“Okay so far you’re losing by three points,” he said when the waitress had disappeared with the dished from the first course.
“This game is totally rigged. You’re basically only telling jokes that you know I’ll laugh at,” you complained though you weren’t actually upset.
“And how could I not? You not only had a bad day but your laugh is so beautiful. Almost every time you laugh at least four people, both men and women mind you, look at you with sappy little smiles on their faces,” he explained. You blushed and looked away from him.
“What did the fish say when he swam into the wall? Dam.” Earned him a laugh from you that almost silenced the whole restaurant. You swatted his arm over this of course because that shouldn’t have been that funny.
This was how the whole rest of the two hours you two spent eating and drinking at the restaurant went on. Satoru would tell bad jokes or cheesy pickup lines and you’d react.
“Two muffins were in an oven. One turned to the other and said, ‘Wow it’s pretty hot in here.’ The other one shouted, ‘Wow, a talking muffin!’” This one even got someone else at a nearby table to laugh along with you.
Every now and again when you laughed your eyes would flicker around the area and notice some people watching you.
“Okay I think if I eat another bite I’ll pop,” you said as the waitress disappeared with the dishes from your latest course.
“Yeah me too,” he said and leaned back on one hand. About twenty minutes ago both of the cats in your lap had woken up. They had taken one look at each other and since then the orange one was grooming the white one.
“So, who won,” you asked. You had never seen if he was actually keeping score and was surprised when he flipped his phone around. In the notes app there was your name and his name with tallies underneath them. You noticed you had five more than he did.
“What can I say some of those jokes definitely sound better on paper,” he shrugged as he flipped back to the browser on his phone and handed it to you.
“You look over them while I go downstairs and pay. You can tell me which one you chose when you get back,” he said before pushing up to his feet.
You looked over each of the apartments. Where one of them lacked amenities it made up for it in size. You were looking over the third one, which seemed to be the best of them all, when the cats apparently decided they had indulged in enough human time. They both leapt from your lap and disappeared into the café.
“Alright which one,” Satoru asked as he stood next to you.
“This one,” you said as you showed him the third apartment. This one was in the middle on size and amenities out of the three of them. It had a fireplace too and that really sold you. Wintertime was the best but you also knew central heating wasn’t the strong suit of apartments around here.
“I figured as much. If we hurry we can be handed the keys this Friday,” he said as he helped you stand up. You two headed for the stairs as you thought about it.
“You really want me to move in with you,” you asked without looking back at him. You finished descending the stairs in silence as Satoru seemed to want to answer the question when he could see your face. You two stepped out of the café and into the deep sunset. When you turned to face him he finally answered you.
“I absolutely do. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Fuck Princess I almost proposed in there but I decided to take it slowly. So please say you’ll move in with me,” he explained as he held your face softly in his hands.
“Of course, I’ll move in with you Satoru,” you hummed as he peppered your face with kisses.
“That’s all I wanted to hear,” he said before placing a soft but deep kiss on your lips.
“Now come on. Let’s get back to your apartment so we can start planning this move,” he said as he tugged you over to your car. You laughed as you followed along behind him, the shitty workday completely forgotten.
Please do not reupload this anywhere. If anyone ever sees my original work uploaded anywhere please let me know. I only post here for now. One day I might actually move things over to my Ko-fi

Tumblr media
Hey this'll be the last time I use colored words for characters!
I think it's a bit too distracting, and the only reason I was using them was to let ppl know if their fav was in there, but now I'll probably just use CW/TW to mention character heavy asks/fics :)
Thanks for being patient with me for so long if ur still reading my stuff :0 <3
Listen as you read?
EDIT 1/1/24: Hey I expanded more about this on my Eldritch Fanfic Part 2 post, but unfortunately I did a form of exoticism by including the term "Huangdi" inappropiately here. I have since replaced it with "Emperor" as was the original untranslated term I would've used. I'm genuinely sorry that I did this, and will absolutely be on the look out/do better in the future. I hope you can understand.
----
AGONIZED OVER THE GIFS THIS TIME THEYRE SO PRETTY AND I WANTED TO GET THEM DANCING ONE OF THEIR CUTER ERA/THEMES ALL DRESSED UP TOO-
also im so sorry?? Idky i was in such a scenario mood today??? Ig im in my exectutive dysfunction paralysis state so maybe that’s why, like it unconcoiusly wants me to waste more time not catching up on uni work??? anyway, hope u like this chaotic addon 😭
or i just love this ask sm, that’s entirely possible too <3
I JUST NEED YOU TO KNOW I PUT ON A MEGA TWICE PLAYIST WHILE WRITING THIS ENTIRE THING LMAO
ok but they’d totally heard ur music tastes thru the screen right?
like just imagine-
the video game music is normalized, and to them its just another one of those “all kinds of magic in teyvat” causing the music, like the seelies wandering around all the time or elemental energy
Jean is flipping through a folder filled with the reports for the week, she’s got to get the routes ready for the week, then there’s the liyue shipments the knights need to help escort over, then checking in on any of the emergency stations/rations throughout Mondstadt for weary or hurt travelers/merchants-
She sighs, and yet another irritated thought is thrown Varka’s way in her mind, she can’t even muster the energy to make it outright dislike she’s so tired…
Jean was so concentrated she just now is starting to hear the Favonious Headquarter’s music once more, it’s peppy upbeat tune… grates like nails on a chalkboard.
and if she has to hear that damn flute for the next hour she works, she’s going to start banging her head onto her desk.
Out in Jueyun Karst, Xiao is dealing the finishing blow to a flying ruin hunter
He’s huffing and stabs his spear into the ground to lean on and catch his breath, the gentle music of the peaks begins to float around him once more
The Yaksha feels the earth beneath his feet shake. Not like from his Lord, not the other adepti angered, but an enemy so large it’s stomps shake the ground he stands on
Xiao quickly straightens less he fall over, pulling his spear out of the dirt with a little more effort than it probably should’ve taken…
The high sounds of the guzheng trickle through the air, a perfect representation of the base of the slopes, trees, streams, and nature all around him
Xiao turns to face the enemy behind him, his arm popping with tired joints,
…A ruin grader, two ruin hunters, and finally regular three ruin guards, follows it. they come around the corner of the bottom of another slope, and they're still simmering with black smoke, curling off their metallic shoulders.
Xiao sees several red targets layer over his chest,
the music fades a little, but sticks around, plucking strings gently. Xiao sighs, exhausted already.
Kazuha and Beidou had to redirect the Alcor from a nasty storm at sea that intercepted their usual route between Inazuma and Liyue,
the storm had practically chased them further and further down form the Inazuman islands
it wasn’t until Kazuha, from the crow’s nest, spotted fog on the waters that they realized they’d be forced to go into said creepy fog, what with the crackling looming clouds at their backs pinning them in
“Not good Captain, the fog is miles long, I’m not sure I can see a way around it…” Kazuha calls down to the deck, Beidou letting out a sharp sigh through her nose
“Damn… fucker’s not even sentient and it practically backed us into a corner, feels like we literally gotta escape the damn thing… BRACE YOURSELVES CREW, WE’RE HEADING INTO THAT FOG!”
The Alcor makes it’s way into the fog, a piano swells with a strange tune…
Beidou, Kazuha, and the crew know to listen to the music of teyvat, especially if you have a life at sea, where storms can appear in the middle of the day or other pirates could attack any moment.
The music means nothing good, but at least Kazuha can see the storm staying at the border of the fog, moving no further in, unlike themselves
“Shit… see anything up there Kazu?” the Captain steering the ship doesn’t even reach a shout, for the music has creeped out all conversation on board
“No ma’am, wait,” a chill breeze brushes through the wanderer’s white hair, he feels goosebumps jump on his neck and spine,
“…Yes! Portside Captain, land, no enemy movement yet!”
“Alright, here goes a bad idea…” Beidou’s arms flex as she easily turns the heavy wooden wheel, steering left,
the Alcor gently comes ashore, and they make anchor.
…there are no enemies, like Kazuha said, but the tune worsens, it had gotten louder now that they’re actually on the theme’s land
It plays slowly, encasing the crew of the Alcor in a paranoid quiet, and it almost has a melancholy note
Crows caw and fly off of a stone gate up ahead, they can see flickers of a strange blue light further inland, like figures carrying lanterns everywhere they go…
“Damn music, I wouldn’t feel half this anxious if it didn’t sound like we were walking into a monster infested cave…” the first mate says, the first person to break the quiet the music held over them.
“Yes, while we might need to stay here for awhile, I think we’re all very aware how dangerous this is…” Kazuha agrees, crossing his arms and squinting at the moving blue lights… the piano plays on.
You open on Spotify on your computer, clicking on your favorite kpop playlist, it’s been rainy all day, so you need the peppiness of this dance playlist to actually not be half-asleep playing Genshin-
You hum along to the Korean lyrics as you boot Genshin up, ugh, ur in-game music is so loud, u forgot u turned it up last time to hear the new Sumeru music…
Turning it down, you let the Kpop songs fill ur headphones as you nod to the beat, your team materializing on screen. Right, off to do commissions first!
Jean is like.. seconds away letting out a scream of frustration, anger, tiredness, loneliness, etc. her hands clenching her hair and ruining her ponytail when, thank Creator, the theme quiets down finally.
The loss of her immediate ire gone, she lets go of her hair, her hands just kind of hovering midair, not knowing what to do with herself, all the negative emotions giving her face wrinkles just melt off, leaving her stunned, blank face behind
🎶 Dalkomhan chocolate ice-cream-cheoreom Nogabeorineun jigeum nae gibun so lovely! Kkamkkamhan uju sok gajang banjjagineun Jeo byeol jeo byeol geu yeope keun ne byeol 🎶
Acting Grand Master Jean actually screams when abruptly a song in an unrecognizable foreign language, blasts into her office, around it, filling the entire Favonius Headquarters with its… cheeriness??
Jean lets her hands fall onto the desk, still in shock
..well, she quickly decides she’s grateful for the new music either Barbatos or the All-Parent had heard her pleas for…
…actually, it’s kind of,, catchy?
Jean takes out her ponytail, massaging her aching scalp, huh, she really did have it tight she’s just now noticing, she feels a small smiles appear on her face,
she actually kind of wants to do something now (she kind of hopes this new foreign bard song sticks around..)
If you asked Xiao what happened in that battle he’d be hard pressed to tell you,
without going completely red in the face. LMAO
He probably wouldn’t tell the other adepti this, especially Cloud Retainer, but Xiao had definitely had to get used to fighting brutal battles to the sound of gentle summer day-esque music
Right as the aruguably, army of ruin machines spotted the Yaksha, he’d launched himself into the air to try and evade the rusted beasts, aiming his jade spear, adding winds to swirl around the staff to better boost his attack, the machines warm up, their targets moved and locked onto him midair, right as both sides launch their attack-
🎶 Geogi neo I fancy you! Amuna wonhaji anha Hey, I love you (Love ya!) 🎶
Xiao nearly falls out of the air.
Quickly recovering, he uses his anemo power to propel himself off to the side dodging, he swears to his Lord and his Emperor himself, delayed attacks, as if the machines were caught off guard too,
missiles whiz by him, exploding behind, the peppy song of foreign women’s voices sings out into Jueyun Karst bright and happy-
🎶 Geurae neo I fancy you! Kkumcheoreom haengbokhaedo dwae 'Cause I need you! (What?) 🎶
Xiao’s face goes from being confused to concentrated throughout the rest of the battle, and the worst part… it actually helps his energy levels.
and he finds himself nodding along
Kazuha takes the lead, his sword unsheathed and at the ready to cut down the slightest movement before it can get to any of the crew behind him,
He’s flanked by the Captain of the Alcor herself, Beidou’s electro shield emitting a deep hum as it blocks in front of both himself, and the crew behind him
all of the pirates have unsheather their own weapons, daggers, swords, claymores, bows, their all on high alert, waiting for.. well, any enemies at all.
In fact, Kazuha hopes he sees hilichurls soon, just for the familiarity it could give him and the his crew-
the music begins to fade away.
The crew stops just shy of the entryway that was perched with crows before they scattered, the white fog hasn’t moved beyond its lazy drifting, but the creeping sounds have stopped entirely. Not good.
Captain Beidou sighs after a few silent moments, other than the quiet breathing and shuffling of weapons from the Alcor crew.
She lets her claymore sword thunk against her shoulder, and just as she opens her mouth, turning to address the all, deciding camping here will have to do for the night-
🎶Fancy! youu, ooh Nuga meonjeo johahamyeon eottae Fancy! youu, ooh Jigeum neoegero gallae Fancy! ooh!🎶
Kazuha’s shoulder shoot up to his ears in a flinch, red eyes wide, he barely stops his reflexes from taking a hard swing with his sword, several crewmembers shriek, collide with metal clinks into one another, Beidou drops low, her sword swinging off her shoulder into almost a full swing at the ground-
…..
……..
🎶 Dalkomhan chocolate ice-cream-cheoreom Nogabeorineun jigeum nae gibun so lovely! Kkamkkamhan uju sok gajang banjjagineun Jeo byeol jeo byeol geu yeope keun ne byeol 🎶
the music plays on, the only one making any noise as the entire Alcor crew just, stop. after their initial shock.
Kazuha’s the first to break.
He desperately tries to contain a quiet chuckle, which turns into a giggle, which turns into a full-on wheeze, as he buries his sword into the ground to brace himself on it and one of his knees
the Captain cracks by the time Kazuha wheezes, her laughter going straight to guffaws and knee slapping, her claymore shaking the ground where she stabs it to lean against
the crew erupts into laughter, both as the peppy foreign song echoes into the mysterious fog, and Beidou’s ridiculous laugh, as always
they don’t recover until two songs later when there’s finally a slow kpop song, Kazuha’s had to sit down, tears streaming down his face, Beidou’s half-dead, wheezing out complaints about her stomach, as the crew keep sending each other into more and more laughter right as they think they’re done.
They decide their Akitsu Mikami must have the best sense of humor and must just be sitting on their celestial throne pranking some of their subjects from time to time, and the Alcor crew find themselves all the more appreciative for it, their nerves entirely gone about the island
Kazuha and Beidou are constantly asking other bards they meet to try and see if anyone can recreate the song for the crew sometime they liked the beat and the memory so much, Fancy by Twice will still get a laugh out of Beidou and Kazuha, and they’d quickly let you in on the inside joke so you’d be a part of it too (afterall you did it lol)
NOW MORE IMPORTANTLY, BC IDK IVE BEEN ON A SCENARIO KICK LATELY?? SORRY IDK WHY U GUYS KEEP GETTING SCENARIOS-
There’s only TWO 2 CATEGORIES THAT MATTER HERE-
Who’s DANCING!! w/o u needing to do anything but play the music:
NILOU (she got those choreos done in like, an hour flat everytime u teach her, shes always begging for “just one more dance lesson Greatest Lord? 🥺”),
YUNJIN (difference betweeen the two dancers is that nilou asks :) → yunjin lowkey demands, she like always gets u into a situation where you have plenty of time to teach her and feel obligated, u just got gaslight gatekeep girlbossed into teaching her another kpop dance LMAO), they also see it as they’re (literally) god-given job to dance better than any idol you’ve seen do it before, esp when they recruit groups of other dancers to join for group choreos
Yoimiya! cutie #1, CHILDE, amber, eula, ITTO, bennett,
Collei (but shes shy u gotta encourage her),
Diona (cutie #2),
FISCHL (would form an actual group to dance all the choreos like a real kpop group),
Gorou (shy #2, needs encouragement),
Kazuha (tbh I think he’d have fun and be weirdly good at it, fem or masc dances),
Ayaka (shy #3, needs encouragement and would rather die than dance in front of ppl other than you),
KLEE CUTIE #3, NAHIDA CUTIE #4,
Qiqi (but u gotta teach her slow bc she needs to memorize it, and also it takes her a bit to write down the dance steps in her journal so she doesn’t forget as much),
Razor (another person i think would just have fun with it! also he’d do it but it would be very, aggressive? like making finger hearts but violently shoving his arm out at ur face lmao),
HEIZOU (shutup he’d actually be good at it and brag- and flirt at you-),
Aether (shy #4), VENTI, xingqiu, xinyan, KAVEH
BARBARA (she literally stalks u around Mondstadt all like “oh hello your highness! just happened to walk by you and was wondering if you heard any new of those “kpop” dances, you know I’d LOVE to show it off at my next show-!” like she hasnt been a block behind you the entire day 💀)
WHO YOU MANAGED TO CONVINCE TO DANCE LMAO-
babygirl Wanderer (he literally surveyed the area before he finally let u teach him any moves, and refused to any sort of dramatic moves, like fem or masc),
Alhaitham (but only like a small part of a guy group choreo like a bit from God’s Menu or smth, he was too lazy to do anymore even for u lol),
Cyno (dammit some of these bitches look way too good doing even girl group dances-),
Diluc (u got him to do like, a pose. LMAO and he saw Kaeya in the distance and quit immediately LMFAO),
Kaeya (but it didnt take much convincing, if anything it just took forever to teach him, he’s talented in footwork for swordfighting but apparantly not dancing, at least not modern dances he tripped so much ur convinced he did it on purpose at one point so he’d fall into your arms again lol),
Ganyu (super shy, wont do it around anyone but you, and maybe Shenhe),
speaking of Shenhe (she just took awhile to teach bc she wanted to stay upright a lot, kinda stiff),
Keqing (once again, another who’d only dance when it’s just u two lol),
Yae Miko (she just wanted to learn the whole choreo that’s what took so long… and now she’s making comments like “My goodness, my god wants me to dance for them? They’ll even show me how? Oh, now I must do it perfectly so I can satisfy you, my Kami.” STOP TAKING THINGS OUT OF CONTEXT UR TEACHING EVERYONE-),
Ayato (he’s acts so theater gay he refuses to do anything but the girl group dances/fem dances lol),
SARA (easy, give her ur strongest, saddest pout and she cracked like glass, u got her to do a whole dance with u/she actually got into it too, its her secret guilty pleasure now lol),
Kuki (did one sort of move then got BARRELED OVER by Itto’s crazied boy group acrobatics he likes so much, u know the backflips over each other type of ones? yeah. ),
Ei (the god herself/not the puppet, catch her never doing that lol, she tried but didnt, get it? she’s also pretty stiff, but she looks like she’s having fun so u just keep teaching her moves, and she likes that its you teaching her something new),
Thoma (shy #5 ? idek what number we’re on anymore lol),
TIGHNARI (u nag that bitch so hard he nearly throws a drink at you to get u to stop bothering him- NO he does NOT think those dances would suit his ears- dammit he wont do that dance, no matter how much he likes you- DAMMIT MY LORD-),
Xiao (if u thought nagging Tighnari was hard, this is like nightmare mode, not only does he not wanna do the dances, but he also wants to understand WHY u want him to dance each and every move- !! bc he would “look cute or cool”?!?!!?!!! …yeah he’s gone, he went so red u cant even get him back with tofu),
Zhongli (would like, be so confused on how to make his body do that, that he ended up just sort of posing, at least he looks cool)
(anyone not on these 2, u did, in fact, not manage to convince, yes, even if their god asked them to, nor are they doing it of their own volition lol)
WHAT THE HELLLLLLL-
THIS IS SO LONGGG IM SO SORRRYYYYY

Hello ♡ I request a fanfic for Seventeen's Jeonghan! I mostly want an idol au fluffy fic. You can decide everything else like the main plot, etc.
Hi! Seventeen is my ult-group and I love Jeonghan so this was so much fun. I hope you like it!
Terrible secret keeper - Seventeen Jeonghan
Synopsis: You are a stylist of Enhypen, ever since the boyband debuted you had dressed them. You became rather close with a man from a different group, and now that you're needed as stylist for Seventeen, you're relationship comes to light.
Warnings: fluff, a tiny bit of angst, (not so secret) secret relationship, idol au., stylist-reader, annoying jeonghan
Word Count: 1401
Masterlist
Tumblr media
You were a bit unsure when you got the news of the switch that was made suddenly. You had been Enhypen's stylist ever since the boys debuted and now suddenly you're supposed to switch to a whole different group with different concepts and different members.
"How is that even possible? I thought we had an agreement." You say, looking at your boss.
"Ayla quit the other day which means Seventeen is one stylist short, you won't stay forever. Just for this comeback." You know by hearing that tone that you can't deny. Soyeon had been a chill boss but she would not let you get away with disobeying.
"Fine, I'll pack my bag and go downstairs." You quickly grab all your stuff and take the elevator to the fifth floor where Seventeen usually gets ready. You enter the make-up room and greet the other stylists and make-up artists.
"You must be y/n." You hum and shake the woman's hand. "I'm Eunu, nice to meet you." She guides you around real quick and explains the new concept to you. You decide to mix together outfits for the hyung-line while Eunu does the same for the Maknae-line.
You unconciously smile when you're forming together the clothes your boyfriend will wear. It was definitely one of the reasons you didn't want to switch to Seventeen. Jeonghan had been your boyfriend for four months but actually, you weren't allowed.
Now you're scared you'll make it too obvious or something. If anyone finds out, you'd probably be fired and you can't lose this job, not when you have so much fun. After a couple of hours, you have made the perfect combinations together with Eunu, now you just need to wait for the members to show up.
"They are all sweethearts." Eunu tells you while you wait, she must've seen how nervous you are. "Every single one of them is just amazing to work with, you won't regret your time here." You hum, continuing to fiddle with your sleeves. You hadn't really met the rest of Seventeen, you weren't even supposed to meet Jeonghan.
*4 months ago*
You are walking through the hallway on the fifth floor, looking for the jacket your co-worker had left behind. It is a very important item for Sunghoon on his next stage with Enhypen. You can't lose it.
"Looking for this?" You stop and turn right to face a man with black messy hair and a white jacket in his hands.
"Yes, thank you." When you're going to grab it, he holds it up where you can't reach.
"Not so fast." The playful tone and the stupid smirk on his face tells you exactly who you're talking to. Yoon Jeonghan. Your co-workers have often complained about him and his childish antics, you can't believe he is the one to find the damn jacket. "You don't look like someone I know so I believe you work for a different group, correct?"
"Yes." You reply, deciding to go along with his little game. It might get you the jacket sooner than when you fight against it.
"And since you were looking for a jacket, I believe you are a stylist."
"Correct again." You sigh, hoping you can get away soon. You're not supposed to talk to other idols, it was a basic rule. You only got to talk to Enhypen. Jeonghan however, doesn't seem bothered and investigates the jacket before smirking.
"Enhypen's stylist."
"How did you--?" He shows you the tag labelled as 'Sunghoon' inside and grins from ear to ear.
"I'm a detective, of course. I played enough mafia to know what I'm talking about."
"Yes, but unfortunately my life isn't a game. I need that jacket and I need it now." You reply, getting annoyed.
"Then you should've been more careful where you'd left it."
"I didn't. My co-worker did." Jeonghan raises an eyebrow as he stares at you, obviously not believing you one bit. "Listen." You breathe out, pinching the bridge of your nose. "Enhypen need to perform in 10 minutes, if I don't have that jacket by then, I'll be fired. You want to be the cause of that?" Jeonghan seems to think before clicking his tongue.
"Alright, you seem hopeless enough. I'll give you the jacket if you meet me at the small Chinese restaurant on the corner tonight at seven." You're a bit taken aback by his suggestion.
"What?"
"You heard me. I want something in return for giving you your jacket back and a date with a pretty girl sounds like the perfect thing." Did he just call you pretty? You smile softly, nodding.
"Fine, I'll be there." You agree. Jeonghan hands you back the jacket, you thank him and walk away. Oh, you're in so much trouble.
*Present day*
Let's just say, the date went well. It was followed by a couple others and well... a relationship with the cute devil. The door of the room opens and a bunch of guys walk inside. Eunu smiles at them as she greets all of them.
"By the way, we have a temporary new stylist, guys meet y/n, y/n meet Seventeen." Eunu says excitedly. A man with dark hair and a strong frame shakes your hand. He must be Scoups, the leader.
"Nice to meet you." He says, kindly.
"Nice to meet you too."
"Everyone, take your outfits and put them on quickly." Their manager says, loudly. Your eyes meet Jeonghan's dark ones, a small smirk plastered on his face as he stares at you. You look away first, giving the hyung-line their outfits before taking Jeonghan's one and walking over to him.
"I hope you like it, I'm not familiar with your group yet." You lie, knowing damn well Jeonghan tells you about everything when you're both cuddled up on the couch at home. He takes the outfit, his hand brushing yours. You feel the electric sparks travel through your body and hope no one else sees the obvious tension between you two.
"Thank you, uh..." He looks down at your name-tag on your shirt. "y/n." He says, walking towards the changing rooms. You breathe out, jumping a little when Eunu places a hand on your shoulder.
"Well, I was wrong. They are all sweethearts except for Jeonghan, he's the devil himself. Don't bother with him." You smile softly, knowing damn well you know him better than she does.
When the boys leave the changing rooms, you two make some adjustments to some outfits so they don't bother them while performing. You watch them practice a little before Jeonghan walks up to you.
"Can you adjust the jacket a little so the collar doesn't bother my neck while I dance?" You look up at him and then at the collar but frown.
"It's not in your way--"
"Pretend, baby, pretend." He whispers, leaning close to your ear. He pulls back and winks at you.
"Of course, don't worry." You see the tag in the jacket and decide to adjust that one since it could start bothering him in the long run. Just when you want to start sewing it, he moves. You groan and try to continue but Jeonghan sees this as a game and continues to move every so often, ruining your work.
"Please stop moving."
"I'm not doing anything." He replies while he moves away from you again.
"Jeonghan, come on." You try to continue but he moves his shoulders again, ruining the last bit of patience you still had. "Yoon Jeonghan! Stand still or be annoyed for the entirety of the performance!" You shout while glaring at him. Jeonghan looks down at you with a shiteating grin on his face.
"Oh, but this is way to much fun. You're cute when you're annoyed."
"That's it. You're sleeping on the couch tonight." You reply, throwing the needle and threat on your desk.
"Seriously?" Jeonghan asks. "You know you can't miss my cuddles."
"I'll resist just to teach you a lesson." It's only when you turn around that you see everyone stare at the two of you.
"You two know each other?" Dokyeom asks, pointing between you and Jeonghan.
"Better question, you two are dating?" Seungcheol asks.
"You're a terrible secret keeper." Jeonghan comments to you.
"Me? You're an annoying devil."
"You're the one who's dating the annoying devil." He replies.
"Oh how I miss Enhypen." You mumble to yourself.

Okay, Let's Talk About 5 - 30
Tumblr media
So, this horrid stage has probably stumped a lot of folks, especially folks that aren't used to the typical Project Moon Bullshit™ of having to fail about 10+ times before you actually figure out the answer to the puzzle the game is giving you... and RNG screwing you over. Mostly that last one, but occasionally Project Moon does throw out some damn tough puzzles to solve.
And with Chapter 5.5 now out I wanted to make a quick guide on how to get through this stage so people can actually beat Canto 5, rush through the Christmas event, and have access to 5.5 before it ends in a month. I'll... debate on explaining how to kill Siltcurrent/Neon Whale/That FUCKING ASSHOLE PARALYZING BIG NUMBERS ASS HAVIN-
But that's for another time.
And yes folks, people have been legitimately stuck on this stage to the point of some people having been barred from the Christmas event because of it. And the most I've seen of people actually helping with this boss in terms of guides and advice is the general fandom being some real assholes about reading passive and showing of their Base Ishmael solo clears without actually explaining anything. But I'm not here to whine about the fandom, I'm here to help with this stage.
Now usually, this is the part where I'd usually give a synopsis for the followers and mutuals that would like context to my long ramblings, but this is an endgame stage and the process of explaining Project Moon games in depth to people unfamiliar with them gives my stomach ulcers so I'll cut my usual fluff and get to the advise.
The Short Answer
For those of you wanting to just know the basics of how to survive this stage here's the brass tacks:
Stagger Ricardo twice to "win"
Don't kill Ricardo's two goons, just clash with them (ideally with a tank ID with aggro) to avoid buffing him further.
Ishmael is quasi-immortal and won't die so long as there's a surviving Sinner in play, so she can tank damage easily.
Use tremor IDs to make staggering easier during his "Test of Big Brother" phase
Use Ishmael's base EGO ASAP to make clashing for her easier.
Alright, with that said, here's some more details about the boss fight.
The Long Answer
I know I said this before, but it's worth repeating. This is endgame content. At this point of the game Project Moon expects you to have that Season Pass at least half finished, at least three teams of Sinners with good synergy (having teams for Charge, Tremor, Rupture, etc.), and have at least some meta IDs. This is not an unreasonable ask either. Most of us started between Seasons 1 & 2 and should have at least a solid team or six made already, a lot of the gacha resources are easy to obtain with patience, and you should have a decent understanding of the game's general mechanics by now. You can only be so ignorant before the failure is ultimately your fault, and while Ricardo definitely has some bullshit to him, most of his puzzle pieces are understandable after the fifth attempt.
I don't say this to insult you guys, but I know a lot of people stuck on this stage are also people that have been speedrunning the content and are now running into a wall as they've pushed further than what the game expected and probably don't have the game knowledge or resources to get through a very blatant knowledge & resource check. Yes, I've seen the Base ID & Base EGO clears too, but those are from people very used to Project Moon Bullshit™ and are outliers.
Now, with all that preamble out the way, here's the general idea.
This is a semi-survival stage where you have to not defeat Ricardo, but reach his second stagger threshold in about 5-7 turns. The biggest issue with this fight is that you've been doing a lot of mindless non-focus fights where you just needed the correct damage type (pierce in this case) to Win-Rate your way to victory. This stage is different in that you have to build a completely different team (tremor ideally), and be mindful of the Middle's general passives where they can get up to 5 Offense Level for getting their team slaughtered, making all of their clashes go up by one or two points. Along with this, the Little Brothers' attacks can debuff your team with Paralyze and Plus-Coin Power Drop, some of the most crippling debuffs in the game for your team outside of very specific IDs.
But you likely already know all of this and have reached the Ricardo part of the stage several times already. Here's the important bits you probably didn't realize.
Don't Kill the Goons
You might have noticed Ricardo gets super buffed when you kill his goons and makes COUPON BLAST™ all the more terrifying. Yeah, the man gets some rather bullshit power-ups if you kill or focus-fire the goons. I understand the though-process of killing the Debuffers and then wailing on Ricardo, but don't. Just beat their clashes and deal with them. The paralyze is crippling, but use a tank for those if you can since tanks (usually) don't do high damage anyway. Plus-Coin Power Drop is annoying, but for units that have big single-coin nukes or use EGO for nukes, this isn't as crippling as Paralyze and is the lesser of two debuffs. Just deal with the goons being there and try and focus most of the damage on Ricardo. The goons have a phase where they both block so you can just focus on Ricardo too, so hold out until then.
Oh, and speaking of tanking debuffs.
Ishmael is Immortal on this Stage
Ish is a mandatory character in this stage and has a sort of quasi-immortality along with a passive called Last-Ditch Struggle. So long as there's at least one surviving Sinner on the team aside from Ishmael herself her won't go below 1 HP. Along with this, she has a unique passive for this stage called Last Ditch Struggle, which gives her additional clash power when at low health. This isn't to say Ish is invincible or anything, but it does give you an edge in the fight. Combined with Snagharpoon's Compulsion passive (the EGO passive, not the debuff on Ish) you can get an additional clashing power about about three, which makes a huge difference against Ricardo's stupid-high numbers. You can use her with something like a fully threadspun Roseate Desire with either Awakening or Corrosion depending on the sanity level and it'll do insane work.
"But Allen, I don't have Rosea-"
Get it. 400 Ishmael shards isn't as big an ask as it was in Canto 2 or 3. You're in endgame now, you should know what you need and should have a few EGO nukes for bosses like this. Roseate Desire or Ryoshu's Blind Obsession. You should have at least one of these by now to survive Ricardo's more devastating attacks aside from COUPON BLAST™. If you really rushed the content this much then just chill out, wait until you've caught to the the season pass to at least give Blind Obsession Ryoshu, and then continue on.
Speaking of endgame content.
Have a Tremor Team
So, you might have noticed during Ricardo's big defense phases he'll have this interesting debuff called "Test of Big Brother", this usually gives him 5 bind next turn, guaranteeing you can safely clash him, along with doubling the damage he takes and increasing the effect of Tremor Burst. And like I said before, this is a fight where you have to reach his second stagger threshold to win. This is phase of the fight is essentially your final warning to get him to that point before COUPON BLAST™ happens and you're team is wiped in two turns.
Not that second part of Tremor Burst's effects behind doubled. It means you can probably get him to stagger by that point if you've got your nukes handy. And surprisingly, a Tremor team isn't a big investment either. Base Ish, Heath, and Meursault all have tremor application, and Ish's base EGO can inflict Tremor Burst at Threadspin 4. And there are several Tremor IDs that are cheap like N Corp Don, LCCB Ish and Rosespanner Meursault. There's are some other good Tremor IDs like Rosespanner Rodion and Molar Outis, but one's a 3-Star and one's a limited 3-Star, so I'd hold off on those unless you wanna' hunt down someone's friend's list.
Oh right, last bit of advice before I sign off on this.
Using the Damn Friend's List
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A lot of us forget this is a thing, but there is a Friends/Support function in the game. You can send a request to people who have fully kitted Sinners you'd need for your team to fill in gaps you can't yet. I don't know the effect this had some stuff like EX clear yet, but if you're speed-running to get to the current event then just use the damn support system and build a decent tremor team to get through this. For the next while I'll have Regret Faust on mine to help some folks, but this is for a limited time only until I can go back to how I like to keep my Company listing. You can also just search around until you find someone with the sinner you need.
And... that's about everything I can tell you about 5-30. Even once you get passed this stage there's still about two or three more little road blocks in the way before you can fully completely the Canto, but this was the more frustrating on out of the four so I wanted to go over it a little. Sorry if I sounded harsh here or there, but I really wanna' stress this is an endgame stage and shouldn't be taken lightly. Limbus Company has it's fair share of bullshit but fair and unfair, but this stage is only slightly unfair until you realize the mechanics around it. Then you can do those Base Ishmael solo clears. I won't because that's hard as hell, but it's something.
Anyways, I'll be seeing you folks later.

"You need to leave." (big t x reader)
Tumblr media
words: 1.368
a/n: ok so basically... i just got drunk, then when i was sober i wrote how i was thinking. sorry if its hard to read but have fun :)
warnings: alcohol mention + use, yelling, and a whole lot of cussing
-
Tanner is getting on my god damn nerves. Last night, I spent the night alone in my apartment and dressed for a date that did not happen. Every text and call I send him I get no answer. I can't tell if I'm supposed to be upset, worried, or pissed off but somehow I'm feeling all three.
For context, we've had this date planned for a couple of weeks. It's already been postponed due to my job or random things Nick asks him to do. And after 3 weeks, we finally both had a free day to have a simple and good date.
15 missed calls, 50+ texts, and 10 hours later I just parked my car in front of Tanner's house. I've gotta calm down. It could've been a mistake, a stupid mistake at that but we all mistakes. No what am I thinking, he deserves to get yelled at. So many thoughts are going through my head. At one point I'm pissed off, but on the other I don't know what happened.
I grab my shit, locking my car behind me, and walk up to the front door. Giggling at the "gay" welcome mat, I ring the door bell... no answer. Okay? I'll just ring it again... no answer again. What is going on? Nick's room is right here, at least he should be able to hear it.
I'm calling Nick.
"Hello?" He picks up the phone.
"Hey Nick, I'm outside. Can you let me in?"
"Yeah sure, one sec" He hangs up. A couple of seconds later, the door opens. A simple "thanks" comes out my mouth all muffled as I shove past Nick to walk towards Tanner's room. Isaac sitting on the couch, looks up and let's me know Tanner's still asleep. Great. Just great... I don't want to wake him up in a bad mood.
Whatever. He deserves it. I need to know what happened. I slam open his door to see him laying in bed sound asleep, with alcohol bottles covering his desk and his sweatpants on the floor next to the bed. His room's a mess, well when isn't it really? The only time its considered to be clean is when you clean it.
He must've heard the door open, cus he slowly wakes up and turns over to see me standing in his room.
"Baby, w-what are you doing here?" he asks so innocently.
"What am I doing here?? I should be asking what you're doing here?" I'm basically yelling.
"What do you mean?"
"What do I mean?!? What do I- uh. I can't with you. We had a date planned for last night!"
"Wha- OH!! Baby, baby please come here. Please come here I'm so sorry."
'No- No absolutely not. What did you do last night? Tell me."
"I-I was drinking with Isaac and Yumi. We played that stupid truck sim game and streamed. Then I just drank and watched anime until I passed out I guess." He admits. What. The. Fuck. I must've said that out loud cus Tanner immediately started to apologize again, "I'm so sorry baby, I completely forgot. Please let me make it up to you".
"No, I'm going home. You better find a way to make this better" I say as I walk out his room and closing the door behind me. The guys must've heard it all happen, cus I could feel Isaac and Nick staring at me as I walk out the front door. I didn't say a word, I just kept my head low and kept walking towards my car. Once I got in my car I just needed to scream.
FUCK.
Okay, that's a little bit better.

I got home and immediately turned my phone completely off, tossing it on my night stand and not looking back. I just need to do something else, get my mind off of what just happened. I need a drink. I grab some alcohol from the mini fridge I keep next to my desk. It's a vodka kind of day.
5 shots in...
10 shots in...
20 gulps in...

I woke up in pajama's and a massive headache. What the-
"Are you okay?" Oh. I remember now. I shake my head yes and sit up to see Tanner sitting on the foot of my bed. God, I'm regretting a lot of shit now.
"Baby... I'm so sorry. Can we talk about this? I need to apologize a lot." He says, so quiet it's basically a whisper. He looks up at me meeting my eyes. Was he.. crying? His eyes were all puffy and his hair was all messed up.
"Look, I fucked up. I know I did. But, baby, please forgive me for it. This is the first date I've missed in the forever the fuck long we've been dating. You didn't deserve that. You don't deserve that. I tried to think of all the things I could buy you, or do for you, to make up. But truthfully, the best option was being here for you and letting you know I care.
"I know you don't want to hear this right now, but I love you. I love you so fucking much. At the end of the day, I would choose you over anybody. Please, baby, just forgive me so I can forgive myself." Tanner whispers, a few tear leaving his eyes.
"It's sad, the first thought I had is that you were cheating on me. Then I thought you died, or just decided you hated me. I spent all of last night on the couch crying in the outfit I would've worn. I'm sorry I yelled at you, I just let my emotions get the best of me. You just... You really scared me. I thought I lost you." I confess. I can't make eye contact with him. I close my eyes as streams of tears run down my face and onto the pillow I've been holding. I feel the bed shift and I think Tanner got up and walked away, but suddenly I feel a pair of arms wrap around me.

For the past 30 minutes Tanner and I have been doing the 3 C's: cuddling, crying, and comforting.
"Relationships are hard" I think aloud.
"Yeah but we make it work." Tanner says, kissing my neck. My head is still pounding from all the alcohol I had, I can imagine Tanner was feeling the same when I yelled at him. To whoever said relationships were supposed to be easy, fuck you. It's hard to put your total 100% trust and love into one person all the time. And on top of that, you get that back. Plus work, or school, and making sure you're still taking care of yourself.
"I'm glad I have you" I confess.
Today was a long ass day.
