Old Habits Die Hard Part 16 | Bradley Bradshaw x Reader

Summary: After you visit Chicago, you understand just how hectic your life is about to become. And Bradley finally gets a very important piece of mail. There are things you want to say to him, but you don't know how.

Warnings: Angst, swears, smut and fluff

Length: 3000 words

Pairing: Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw x Female Reader (fuckboy college student Bradley)

Check out my masterlist

Bradley helped you pack your bag and sat with you while you waited for your ride.

"I wish I could come with you. But I guess I'll have to wait to see Chicago when I visit you in the fall," he whispered, kissing your neck and holding you.

You were going to check out your new school for a long weekend since you'd be moving to Illinois next month. You were kind of terrified to go alone, but you needed to meet your advisor and look at your course of study. If you had the money, you'd take Bradley with you, but it really wasn't an option.

"I'll scope out the city and see what looks fun," you told him, running your fingers through his soft hair.

"Don't do the fun stuff without me though," he murmured. "Promise me, Sugar. Promise me you won't visit that big, silver bean. It looks dumb as hell, but I really want to see it."

You laughed against him and nodded your head in the crook of his neck. "I promise."

"And no deep dish pizza either."

You gasped and pulled away from him. "Now that's where I draw the line, Beer Boy."

Bradley laughed and pushed your hair away from your face. "I'll miss you." His face was so earnest, you had no doubt that he would.

"I'll call you as soon as I land. Behave without me this weekend."

"I will," he whispered against your lips. "I'll be thinking about you the whole time." You dipped your tongue into his mouth and eased yourself further onto his lap, and just when you started to get cozy, your phone alerted you that your ride had arrived.

He walked you down to the street and kissed you one last time before you got in the car to leave. The urge to make some big proclamation about your feelings was filling you up inside, but you had to tamp it back down. Your feelings were honestly scaring you a bit since Tyson's birthday party. Nothing was making much sense to you now, and you needed to keep in mind that you wouldn't be seeing Bradley on a daily basis starting next month. The idea of it felt like too much weight to carry around with you as he stroked your neck with his fingers and told you he'd miss you so much.

You watched the Virginia countryside in the morning light, and when you landed in Chicago, the juxtaposition of continuous urban sprawl was alarming. You figured you would get used to it in time, but the sheer volume of traffic and city noise started to give you a headache almost immediately.

You managed to get a taxi to your hotel, and you quickly changed to meet with your advisor. Sometimes you wished you had a closer relationship with your parents so you had someone to rely on. It made you want to put all of your trust in Bradley, and you wanted to be the person he could trust with anything. But you'd only known each other for a few months.

But you texted him anyway. You snapped a picture as you rode past 'the bean' and promised him you weren't going without him. You texted him photos of the school campus as you walked along, searching for your advisor's office.

When you found her spacious workspace, she jumped up and introduced herself to you. "I can't tell you how happy we are to have you joining us for the fall semester. Have a seat. And please call me Carmen."

"Thanks, Carmen. I just got lost walking through the campus, but it looks amazing here."

She just smiled at you and promised to take you on a tour tomorrow morning. "Now, I want to give you a brief overview of what will be expected, and then we can select your first semester classes later this weekend. However, I must say, I am so impressed with your undergraduate studies. I've spoken extensively about you with your advisor from UVA, and he assures me that we couldn't have picked a finer PhD candidate to add to our program. So welcome, once again."

You weren't used to hearing such high praise about yourself, and you felt a little uncomfortable in the leather seat. What if they had all actually made a huge mistake? What if you couldn't hack it? You'd be sleeping in the park under the bean, calling Bradley to come out to Chicago and rescue you.

"Wow," you managed to say with a soft laugh. "I guess the pressure is on then."

When Carmen nodded with a very serious look on her face, all pretense of teasing on your part vanished.

"It's going to be intense if you want to graduate in four years. And that's one of the things that will be required for you to keep your scholarship. You'll need to maintain a high GPA as well, so you'll be spending a lot of time in the labs and working closely with me."

You pressed your lips together. "It doesn't sound like I'll have much time for a personal life."

Carmen laughed and shrugged. "That's probably true. But when you finish your schooling in just an additional four years, you'll have your pick of careers. You told me in an email that you wanted to be a college professor someday? Well, after we're done with you, I can almost guarantee you'll be able to work anywhere you want to."

You let that sink in for a few minutes while Carmen told you more about the graduate dorms and your monetary compensation.

------------------------------

Bradley spent all day Friday in the study room, bored out of his mind and missing your body perched on his lap. He read his final novel for his English class, and he would have no problem finishing his final paper this weekend. His economics class was so easy, it was boring, and he'd already finished reading his political science textbook.

He'd started counting down the days until graduation. He was ready to move on, simply dying to hear back about flight training. Then he would be able to make some decisions, because at the moment, he was feeling so lost. He was happy for you though. You knew exactly what you wanted, and you were going to get it. He just hoped he would be that lucky this time.

When his phone went off with texts from you, he scrolled through the photos you sent him, stopping on a selfie of you smiling in front of a fountain. He set it as his background. Then he texted you back.

Dev was sorting the mail when Bradley got back to the Beta house, and the rest of the guys were getting ready for the weekend parties. "Here," Dev told him, tossing a thick envelope to Bradley when he walked past.

"Thanks, man," Bradley replied, expecting it to be the annual information on his mom's life insurance policy. But when he turned it over in his hands and saw the US Navy emblem on the front, he nearly tripped on the stairs. He took the remaining steps two at a time and locked himself in his room.

With shaky hands, Bradley tore into the envelope and sat down hard at his desk.

"Welcome to officer training and the Naval Aviation Academy," he read out loud to himself, and Bradley could see the tears clouding his vision before he could feel them.

He set the letter down on his desk and cradled his face in his hands and just cried. This was the thing he had wanted for so long, and this time he wasn't going to let anyone take it away from him.

Bradley wiped away his tears and let himself smile. His grades had improved so much, especially since he had a 4.0 so far for his senior year. In some sick, twisted way, he thought he had Chase to thank for this, because Bradley wasn't sure he would have been able to find the motivation to drink less and study more on his own.

He wanted to text you right away. He also wanted to tell Hannah. But he would wait until you came back on Sunday night before he said anything.

So he read through every bit of information twice and sent an email to the officer listed as his contact person for housing inquiries. As soon as he gave up his room here, he'd have absolutely nowhere to go otherwise. He also asked about guest accommodations, so he would have a good idea about what he should tell you for when you came to visit him.

His schedule looked absolutely wild. In his first year, he'd be in Rhode Island, Florida, Texas, and then California. And now he was hoping he'd have time to see you in Chicago.

So Bradley partied a bit all weekend, silently celebrating his acceptance letter. He avoided the hard liquor and the mob of girls asking him what happened to his girlfriend. You'd be back soon enough, and he couldn't wait to show you his letter.

---------------------------

Your campus tour and lunch with the head of the math department went smoothly. Then you picked out which dorm you'd be moving into, with the option of coming early in May to get a jumpstart on your classes. Then you sat down with Carmen again to select your schedule for the fall semester and see which textbooks you would need to acquire.

You'd be learning about things you never even dreamed of at UVA. And you'd be working with some of the most intelligent and well studied people in the field. It was a lot for you to absorb.

When you flew back to Virginia on Sunday, you were so antsy, you couldn't sit still. When you landed you texted Bradley and told him you were going to get a ride directly to the Beta house, he said he'd be waiting for you.

And he was. You saw him sitting on the porch when your ride dropped you off, and he walked down to get your bag and pull you into a tight hug.

"I missed you, Sugar." He scooped you into a hug as the car pulled away, and you let him hold you until you were sliding out of his arms. "How much did you love Chicago?"

You kissed him softly and then nodded. "It was kind of a shock to the system, but...yeah, I think it will be good."

You just inhaled his scent for a few moments while he rubbed your back and asked you for some details. Then it struck you; if you missed each other this much after just a few days apart, how were you going to date each other in two different time zones? You held onto him tighter and kissed the scars on his neck.

"Can I show you something? Up in my room?" he asked softly.

You huffed out a laugh. "I would certainly hope you'd wait until we got to your room for that, Beer Boy."

He rolled his eyes and picked up your bag. "That's not what I was talking about, and you know it. But...yeah, I can show you that, too."

You laughed as Bradley chased you up the stairs, and you opened his door, running your fingers along your phone number as you went inside.

"What do you want to show me?" you asked between kisses. Because now that you had him alone, you needed to touch all of him. His fingers dug into your hair, a little rough along your scalp as he pulled your body against his.

"I want you to read something," he told you, guiding you backwards until you were sitting at his desk. He pointed to an envelope that looked like it had been opened very hastily, and he kissed your neck as you reached for it.

"Bradley," you gasped when you saw the return address.

You spun around to face him, but he just nodded and said, "Go on, read it."

As quickly as you could manage, you pulled everything out of the envelope and started to read. You made it through two lines before you were out of your seat and climbing Bradley like he was a tree.

"Oh my god, Bradley! You did it!" You were kissing him all over his face while he held onto you. At first you thought he was crying, but then you realized your lips were met with your own salty tears. "I'm so proud of you!"

"Thanks, Sugar," he whispered against your lips. "I got the letter on Friday, and I've been dying to tell you in person. And now you're the first one I told."

"You could have told me during one of our dozen phone calls, Bradley!"

He just shook his head and climbed on top of you on his bed. "It's not the same."

"What are we going to do when phone calls are all we have?" you asked him softly. But Bradley just shook his head.

---------------------------

He didn't want to think about that yet. He didn't want to think about any of it at all.

"We'll figure it out," he promised. Your hair was spread out across his pillow, and you were looking up at him like you trusted him with everything. Graduation was so close now, and both of you knew where you were headed next. But none of that mattered, because you'd still have each other.

"I trust you, too, Sugar," he told you, even though you hadn't said anything. "You're so smart. You always know what to do. I trust you."

Your hands were in his hair, pulling him impossibly closer to you. "I knew you'd get in," you told him. "I never doubted you for a moment."

Bradley smiled as you kissed him. "You're the only one who feels that way about me."

"Lucky me," you whispered, wiping a stray tear from your cheek before you started to pull his shirt off. Nothing you did felt rushed, and even though you were pinned underneath him, Bradley knew you were the one in control.

He basked in the feel of your hands on his bare skin and your soft body beneath him. You had changed him so much; or rather, he had changed because of you. He had known he wanted to be better, but he really did it for you as much as himself.

"Sugar." Your lips were on his shoulder, gliding across his skin, leaving a trail of not quite kisses as you reached for the front of his jeans.

He wished he could make you cum a million times tonight. He wanted to watch every inch of you as you got off on him, because soon he would have to go long stretches without you.

He stripped your clothing off as well, and you were already wet and moaning when he dipped his fingers down along your pussy.

"Beer Boy!" you whined. "I need you."

He needed you more. Once he had rolled a condom into place, he rolled onto his back and guided you on top of him. He was hard and ready for you, but he watched the look on your face as you straddled his abs and let your forehead rest against his.

"I need you." You whispered it this time as his fingers gently memorized the curve of your hips. Then you eased yourself down his body and guided him inside you with a soft hiss.

Eyes slightly out of focus, you moved above him, the bump of your thighs against his body just perfect. Bradley was mesmerized, just like he always was when he was with you like this. He let his fingertips trail up along your ribs and across your tattoo and you gasped for him.

"So perfect," he said, and you kissed him hard while you rode him. You tasted his lips and his teeth and moved with a rhythm that had him close to the edge.

He guided his fingers to the space between his body and yours where you could rub yourself against him. And then you were crying out into his mouth as your pussy squeezed his cock, and he came too.

"So perfect," he repeated into your hair as you buried your face against his neck.

---------------------------

You changed into Bradley's tie dye shirt and sat on his floor sharing a pizza with him.

"What's your dormitory going to be like?" he asked, folding a slice in half and taking a huge bite.

"It's in this ancient building with insanely intricate architecture. I picked it because it looked fun, which I'm sure wasn't the best decision," you said with a laugh as he finished the piece of pizza. "But the best part? It's all mine. No roommate!"

Bradley grinned. "That'll be nice for when I come to visit."

You smiled. "It's a long walk to the bean, but if the weather's good, it's doable. And there's literally deep dish pizza on every street. Jealous yet? Are you still sure you want to go to Rhode Island?"

Bradley leaned across the pizza box and placed the softest, sweetest kiss on your cheek. Your eyes fluttered closed and you smiled. "If there was any option for me to be closer to Chicago, I would have taken it, Sugar. Promise."

You just looked at him, longing for him to understand how you felt inside, but you were way too afraid to say anything to him. You were in love with him, and it was eating away at you. There was no way you could tell him. Not when you were graduating and leaving so soon. It would have to wait. Maybe there would be a better time later. But not now.

bought some sparkles and finally thought of a request i wanted to send in here, could u write male yuu and rollo lighting some kiddy fireworks together?? specifically kiddy fireworks. like those sparklers and mini fountains... thank ye kindly

Rollo Flamme x reader Yuu sneaks out of campus during the winter break to come to visit Noble Bell College again, weeks after the symposium.

hi I'm back for like 5 minutes just to accomplish this request since it's now 2023 ... I'll get back to the regular reqs as soon as this is done i just sorta wanna rush seasonal ones a bit more before the season expires ahahahaaa. ;w; dont ask me when this happens in episode 4's timeline... call it the rollo timeline...... its not the first time twst has made you question when anything is happening...

The streets of the City of Flowers remain colorful despite the thick blankets of snow that weren't there before when Yuu was here last Halloween. He holds his bag close to himself while walking downtown, looking for a certain address...

Yuu left Grim to Ramshackle and the ghosts while hoping that the winter feast Crowley had prepared for his dorm would be enough to keep him entertained.

"Are you sure you want to go by yourself?" The headmaster asked him just before he left. The Dark Mirror was prepared just for this small trip during the break. Yuu explained to Crowley that he had become close with a student from Noble Bell College during the event and he wanted to see him again. Eventually, Crowley let him go after finding out it was the student council president himself.

Yuu would surely be in good hands.

༺ ❃ ༻

Yuu places his things down as Rollo still stands nearby. What could he possibly want to show him in the middle of winter? He stares at the small items Yuu is taking out of his bag. Some are store-brought, and the rest are locally made from some stalls in the city itself.

They're small fireworks. It reminds him of the festival where the two of them first met.

"I should've known," Rollo calmly sighs and gives the other a small smile. He adjusts the scarf around his neck as his voice returns Yuu's attention to him.

"Did you think I would come here for something else?" He hands him a sparkler and wonders if Rollo was going to accept it. Fortunately, he does take it from Yuu's hand. "This city is your domain, after all."

"You should know more than anyone else how the Night Raven students may possibly still feel about me. Look at you, you didn't even bring anyone with you," he laughs lowly. Yuu doesn't attempt to argue further since he wasn't wrong. The boys back at NRC would never think of wanting to see him again, and they would have stopped Yuu from leaving.

"Can we spend time together without worrying about anyone else?"

"You're right… Pardon me," he brings his hand to his face to cover his lips with his scarf. Yuu thinks to himself that this was the winter edition of his handkerchief habit.

When they exchanged numbers last fall, Yuu was surprised he had a Magicam account at all, even if Rollo says he doesn't use it often. He thought they would be exchanging letters as soon as the symposium came to an end. Instead, they've been secretly chatting from time to time. If the others knew, they would most definitely call Rollo a red flag, so Yuu never spoke of him to others.

Rollo observes the object in his hand, a stick that has yet to be lit with regular fire. One can perform tricks with their magic wand to display the same type of light that comes out of a sparkler, but this one is readily available to anyone, mage or not. Even someone like Yuu can come to engage with such a beautiful display without endangering himself in Rollo's eyes.

Yuu places a hand in his coat pocket to fetch his lighter but thinks of asking Rollo a small question. "All it needs is a small spark, so maybe it'd be faster if you lit these up for us instead," Yuu smiles innocently. It takes Rollo out of his head, being asked to cast magic like this…

"Or not, I was just kidding," he fishes the lighter out of his hand anyway when Rollo takes it from him.

"I would, for you, but I also figured this would be nicer," he flicks it open and lights the tip of their sparklers one at a time. Yuu wonders what Rollo meant by that because it could go two ways.

Maybe he meant it would be nice for them to not use any magic at all so Yuu wouldn't feel alienated like he does in NRC, even if his schoolmates didn't intend to make him feel left out. On the other hand, it's more likely that Rollo meant that it would be a good chance for Yuu to be away from people who show off magic carelessly. Yuu doesn't know how much he's developed since.

Either way, he felt nice about the temporary feeling of being with someone normal to him. It was like he was back in his world where he was just a regular person spending New Year like he would with his friends and family back home.

Their sparklers light up and flicker right in front of them, the gold flashes standing out against the backdrop of snow. Rollo holds his sparkler still when Yuu waves his around as if he were drawing in the air.

Rollo smiles to himself and decides to mimic his movements, but he isn't as vigorous as Yuu. He's calm and composed and preferred to move his sparkler like a conductor compared to his companion. "It feels nice being with you again," Yuu smiles while drawing an infinity symbol with his sparkler.

Soon enough their fireworks go out, but to Rollo, Yuu was much brighter and more delightful to look at than their sparklers combined. "Do you have more, by any chance?" He asks as if his bag isn't wide open next to them with more kiddy fireworks.

"I got a mini fountain."

Rollo assists Yuu in helping set it up even if he said otherwise. "I'm the one who planned to meet up with you for this, and I'm fine doing it on my own, Rollo."

"You went through the trouble of traveling here all the way from your campus just to light some fireworks with me, this is one of the ways I can repay you," he answers and lights up the wick. The two of them wordlessly step back as the mini-fountain's sparks grow bigger and bigger. It's brighter than the handheld fireworks just a few minutes ago and it bursts into a tower of yellows, reds, greens, and blues. It's loud from where they're standing, but noises such as these are expected in the season.

Rollo repeats Yuu's words in his head. He hasn't expressed how much he looked forward to seeing him again as well. Academic activities tend to become heavier as winter comes until it was time for a break, and here they finally found time for one another.

Once upon a time, he spent the end of his year with someone like this as well. They had all these small and handheld fireworks and safely played with fire like they were casting magic while wishing their new years resolutions would come true.

The time one spends with others is fleeting, and moments last as long as these fireworks. Gone in a few seconds, but a beautiful explosion of colors that one can look back on with the same joy they felt in that instance.

"What are your plans for this year, Yuu?" Rollo clasps his hands together as soon as the mini-fountain slowly dies down to a more bearable volume than when it was at its peak. He looks to his side where Yuu was standing.

"Survive. How about you?"

It was such a blunt answer, and Rollo pities him after seeing the expression he made saying this.

"Well, I intend to... make it up to those I've wronged in the past, perhaps self-reflect on certain things..." How could he sound so sure yet unsure at the same time? Yuu thinks to himself this. Either way, he knows fully what Rollo meant and he admires how much he wants to change for the better. Letting go of baggage is expected on New Year, after all.

"If I'm still alive by term break, I'm thinking of coming over to visit you again to see your progress," he smiles while placing a hand over his.

"Why do you speak like you have a foot in the grave? This must be their doing. Maybe you shouldn't return to Nigh Raven College."

"Rollo!"

Mingyu + Enchanted by Taylor Swift for the song fic game 🥹

Congratulations, OP 🥲

You've managed to send me into a Mingyu spiral for the first time in MONTHS (Vernon who!? Jokes jokes 😅)

Because I'm suffering, I'm gonna make you suffer too: An angsty childhood friends to lovers story, in which Mingyu is the boy next door. He is your best friend since grade school because he shared his cookie with you the second day of class. When your parents found out you befriended one another and lived next door, your friendship was encouraged and you become like those corny neighborhood kiddos who skip to and from school together 😊🤣

Your father owns a restaurant and eventually, when you're teenagers, he hires on Mingyu as an assistant cook in the kitchen because his family, which consists of his mother and grandmother, is in need of some extra cash as money is tight and rent is due!

When you both turn eighteen, Mingyu remains at home to take care of his family and continues working as an assistant cook, while you head off to university. You call/text almost every day, sharing your new adventures with him and him keeping you updated on yours and his family wellbeing at home.

However, as the first year passes by, you both can't help, but feel the ache of missing one another. Phone calls, silly text messages, and the occasional postcard doesn't seem enough. Unfortunately, you both are too hesitant to share this feeling of nostalgia with one another; not because you're afraid of ruining your friendship, but neither of you know how to explain it to one another. The both of you were never the type to speak your mind without finalizing your thoughts and feelings.

Mingyu finally gets some time off and visits you on campus in the spring and this is when your love starts blooming like a blooming flower! 😍🤣 It's one 3-day weekend (starting on Friday), but it changes both of your lives and how you view each other forever. Even though Mingyu doesn't attend your university, he follows you around to your classes and waits for you outside on the bench or the coffee shop across the street 😭 He attends a party with you - and ofc, there's the obligatory "omg is he your boyfriend?" question from all your peers. Unfortunately, Mingyu fucked up his hotel reservations, so you end up sneaking him into the girls' dorm late at night. Thankfully, you had a single room to yourself. You end up squeezed onto the old rickety twin bed - I have a DELUSIONAL scene already brewing for this . . . 😭😦😰

ANYWAYS, the weekend progresses and it's honestly not that exciting - just mundane things such as going to the convenience store to buy pads and some snacks, showing him around campus, but for some reason, it's so dang fun for the both of you and literally the whole student can tell y'all are IN LOVE.

Mingyu returns home and that feeling of missing him (and vice versa) grows. It felt worse than before he visited and you're both so oblivious and confused - until Mingyu's having a conversation with his grandma and she informs him, "you're in love with your best friend, my idiot grandson."

Without a second thought, Mingyu takes a train to your university and it also just so happens to be raining. Man races your dorm all wet just to confess - and hopefully, you feel the same.

Much to his dismay, however, when you open the door, there's another boy behind you: his name is Jun - a senior in your journalism class :')

JOKES JOKES JOKES to the last part omg - I couldn't LOL. There would be a happy ending, where you also confess your feelings. Kiss, kiss, hug, hug!

I'll write a different story for journalism classmate!Jun LMAO

Send me a song + SVT member and I'll give you a plot based on both!

#twogyuu:writing #twogyuu:ask games #mingyu scenarios #oh god this idea definitely is a candidate for some future writing #i love me a good slowburn #thank you for requesting this op!!

Love @ First Sight 💕

- I find them cute 😭💗 ( mah babies 🥹 )

- coby owns a big bike lessgo

- luffy here is a 3rd year and coby is a 2nd year

One Friday Morning in the Grand Line University....

The whole Corridor is filled with freshman and 2nd-3rd year girls who was aiming to see Ace and Sabo the popular brothers and also Coby the student council president of the 2nd year Department

"OMG THERE'S COBY-SENPAI!"

"WHERE?! WHERE?!"

"THERE!! HE'S TALKING RIGHT NOW WITH ACE AND SABO-SENPAI!!"

"KYAAHH!!!"

"Ughh here they are all again..."

"Just don't mind them ace keep your walk straight and nevermind their eyes piercing through you"

"Urk you sound like it was hella scary as fuck dude shut up"

Sabo just rolled off his eyes and smiled back at coby who was waiting for an answer with his question

"Ohh luffy? Sadly he was sick today since he got caught up in the rain yesterday"

"Ohh..."

"Don't worry! He will be just fine by tomorrow...if he didn't throw a fit and just stay put and our personal doctor marco is right there taking care of him so no worries...or so we thought.."

"SABO STOP WITH THOSE SCARY PREDICTIONS OF YOURS MARCO WOULD NOT TOUCH LUFFY LIKE THAT"

"Sorry haha I'm just overthinking that's all"

"That's crazy to overthink sabo..."

"Ohh okay then thank you for telling me! I'll visit him later after our classes and might as well take care of him in behalf of sir marco"

"Ohh thank you then coby! Luffy might get happy if his friends visited him!"

Ace ruffled coby's hair as he and sabo went to their respective classrooms...

As for coby he waited for helmeppo on the gate since their biology class starts at 9 AM

He was still thinking that it was his fault that luffy got sick because of yesterday.

As he was in his train of thoughts he suddenly heard helmeppo calling his name

"COBY!!" he said while waving and running towards coby who was just a few meters far from him

"YOU BASTARD I TOLD YOU TO COME HERE EARLY BECAUSE WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT OUR REPORT FOR LATER!"

"SORRY MY ALARM DID NOT RANG FOR A MINUTE"

"Whatever lets get started and divide our parts so we will not take too much time later on"

"Okay then"

After that they both sat on the cafe inside the campus and started dividing the slides they are about to tackle about and even search for fun facts and ideas for add-ons and by 8:40 AM they stood up and took their things and went to their first class

As they both went inside the classroom one of their classmates told them that their prof from their class will be absent because of sudden emrgencies but a substitute teacher from the chemistry department came to take a look for them

"Good Morning class the name's Monette and I'm from the chemistry department and your proffesor told me to be in substitute today and was also told that someone from this class are about to report something today?"

Coby and Helmeppo raised their hands "That's us miss its our turn for todays report"

"Okay then please kindly get here in the front and present your report so the time will be not wasted"

After they both went in front they both presented their slides and had a successful report with their classmates not asking questions and even have high scores on the quiz they gave for them.

"Okay then class since their report and the mini quiz is done it should be my que to leave and Mr. Coby and Mr. Helmeppo please kindly hand me the papers from your quiz so I could put it on your prof's desk okay? Thats all and the class is dismissed" Monette announced as she gave them a sweet smile and took the papers from Coby and Helmeppo.

Their next class will start at 12:30 and will finish at 2PM and it was still early

"How about we just got to the library?"

Coby gave him a coy look as he let out a small laugh "You'll just sleep there you idiot"

"What? I mean rather than spacing out i'd rather sleep on the library instead"

"Go then lets meet at the cafeteria at 11PM so we could go eat and head to our last class for today"

"Okay then see ya"

"Mn see ya"

They parted ways as Coby headed to the student council office and found Sabo there with Koala the Vice President on their department and one of the vice head directors of the school which was also luffy's grandfather garp

"Ohh Good morning ms. Koala and mr. Savo and to you too head director Dragon"

"No need for formalities young lad just call me garp" garp replied as he ate a rice cracker

"You old man why are you slacking off here in the student council room?" He heard Sabo let out a sigh as he signed the papers Koala just handed him as garp was on the sofa happily eating his rice crackers.

"HEH you have the guts to scold your grandfather here boy–"

"Sengoku-san was just scolding him and he doesn't want to hear it so he went to hide here" Koala sighed as she handed the last paper to sign for today

Sabo just scoffed as he signed the papers diligently while listening.

"Oh by the way Coby theres a document handed to you from your secretary tashigi a while ago" sabo said which got coby's attention and took the envelope from him

"Thank you! That's why tashigi texted me a while ago thank you again pres!"

"No worries"

Coby went out from the room as he went to the cafe to check the documents and saw that tashigi has already done the part where he asked for the information of the people who attacked a first year of the grand line university yesterday.

FLASHBACK

It was 7pm that time and all president of every year level had an urgent meeting for the upcoming sport championship and also upcoming retreat for the freshmen and graduating students and so their meeting lasted for 2 hours since it will tackle about the rules, and also the amount of selection for the place where the said retreat and even the selection of players for the sport champion ship is also tackled hence that's why everyone is busy that night of the meeting...

"Okay everyone let's continue to discuss this tomorrow evening so no more absences tomorrow but if needed please just provide an excuse letter or tell me beforehand of the meeting"

After sabo finished the meeting everyone helped to clean out the said room except for sabo who stayed for a while since he still have papers to finish for that regards about the concerns of the parents and also the students for the upcoming retreat

As they were about to exit the school grounds it started raining and coby being the most prepared one took out his umbrella and bid goodbye to others took out their emergency unbrellas on their lockers.

As he was walking to the main gate he heard someone yelling near the open field of their campus dome and it seemed like someone was hurt so he quickly went to that direction..

And the sight overly made his eyes go wide as no scream let out from his mouth...

There luffy was getting punched as he tries to stand by to protect the two freshman girls who is now crying under the rain...

Coby lost it as he yeeted his umbrella and dashed out to go and gave them and give them a taste of their own medicine as he gave them a few round house kicks and some uppercuts that badly damaged the ones who hurts luffy

"C-Coby?"

"LUFFY-SAN"

Luffy let out a little laugh as the two girls went to go check on him.

"HOW DARE YOU HURT THE FUCK OUT OF ME?!"

"That's my question to you either..."

"What the hell are you doing in the grandline university punching the hell out the head directors son?"

The students from other school went to look at luffy in horror as luffy menacingly looked at them

"Rule no.35 in the school rules...No other school should be allowed to punch, bully, kill, nor harass students inside nor outside from the Grand Line University campus..."

"Yet here you are...beating the hell out of the only son of the head director..."

Coby grabbed the collar of the now shaking outsider as he whispered on his ear

"Now go and get the hell out of here with your dumbass friends and never go back before the president of the students council sees you" he coldly said as he threw him outside of the 2nd gate of the campus.

After that the five outsiders quickly ran their asses off as he turned around to check for luffy.

"L-Luffy-san are you alright?"

"Y-Yeah thank you for that coby shishi"

Coby and the two girls almost cried at how strong luffy is despite of his hurtful image he still let out a smile.

"YOU-WHY DID YOU JUST STOOD THERE! YOU'RE ALMOST GOT KILLED BECAUSE OF US" the other girl cried as luffy only smiled and patted her head.

"I know it seems to me that they're just weak and so i just feed the ego and was about to strike after they're done hitting but coby showed up"

"...."

"What matters us that its already done okay? And its still raining i'll call our driver vergo so he could drive you two hom–"

"Stop...we are already for your protection luffy-senpai..we will just walk since our home is not far from here...don't worry we will not meet trouble and you two should go home too thank you again" the other girl bowed as she took the hand of her friend and there they ran away to go back home

Luffy grunted as he held his left abdomen..

"L-Luffy-san"

"Uhmm..c-can you please carry me home?"

Coby was stunned at what he heard as he didn't expect luffy to bring him home instead of the clinic...

"U-Uhh suree wait i'll just take out my motorcycle bike and we'll go home okay? Luffy-san?"

Luffy just nodded as he tried not to move too much as Coby sat him on the benches inside the dome

After that Coby ran to where his motorcycle bike was parked and quickly started it and so he droved where luffy was and Luffy stood up as coby messily putted on his helmet and after that coby put his helmet on and luffy rode on the back as he hugged coby and he droved off in the rain..

"Woahhh coby where did you even learned to drive a motorcycle like this??"

"Well zoro-senpai and I took lessons for riding motorcycles like this during summer break last year"

"Ohh so coolll i wanna learn too but I'm not that good in handling big bikes like this"

Coby just smiled as he drove off and tried speeding and as expected luffy got excited as he changed him "faster cobyyy!!!"

"Pfft no more luffy-san I just speed off a little because we are in a highway and since we are on the city there are now speed limits"

Luffy got a little sad but he went in awe of the city lights and even the rain had subdued a little...

After a little ride towards home they finally got into the Monkey D. Residences and there Coby parked his big bike on the outside parking station and took off luffy's helmet

"BWAH Ugh it moisted inside i feel like i couldn't breathe"

Coby just chuckled as he ruffled luffy's hairand there found him a little quite cute and sexy despite of luffy being older than him.

After a minute luffy successfully dried his hair and so as coby, Coby's heart skipped a bit after seeing luffy up close and was stunned by his manly beauty...now he understands why the 4th years like trafalgar, eustass, Boa and even the other proffesors have the toxic love for him too...

And now he's also one of the contenders...

"-oby? Coby? Coby!" He just realized that luffy was calling for him...

"O-Ohh sorry for looking at you for too long"

"No worries hehe by the way thank you for taking me home! Nice meeting you tho"

"No worries luffy-san..pleasure to meet you too"

Now here lies coby's intrusive thoughts whether to kiss him goodbye or not...its like they are having a war on his head but like I said his intrusive thoughts won...

Before luffy can go inside the gate coby pulled his hand and waist and gave him a sweet goodbye kiss as luffy was shocked and was now confused on his spot...

"Wh–"

"GOODBYE NOW LUFFY-SAN TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF I'LL GET GOING NOW!"

Coby embarrassingly went back to his big bike and drove out of there as fast as possible as luffy who was still confused nodded and went inside of their residence.

After that Coby hard a hard time falling asleep due to what he did to luffy...

END OF FLASHBACK

Coby got back to reality due to his phone ringing and there the called ID shows helmeppo's name.

He sighed when he exoected for luffy to call him but he remembered he didn't have his number...

He just chuckled and went to answer helmeppo's call

"What now?"

"You stupid you just told me to meet you at the cafeteria yet you are not here and it's already been 11"

"Alright alright calm the fuck down i'll be on my way"

After that he end up the call and stood up as he looked up in the sky

"Wish to see you again Monkey D. Luffy.." he mumbled and went back to meet helmeppo.

– That's all folks...

( here a hawt coby for ya'll )

ok. hi!

i feel like i have to be transparent about the reasons i haven't been writing as much lately, especially now that i have answers.

in late 2023, i wrote sporadically because i was struggling with my physical health in ways i wasn't really aware of. i'm very happy to report that my reasons this month have nothing to do with that.

as some of you beyond my circle of friends might know, this year was the last of my phd program. i defend my dissertation in a week and a half, which is wild. but since the school year began, i've been applying for all kinds of academic jobs. i applied for some within my field and some outside of it (i.e. english composition, something i have lots of experience in but don't always love!). in early february, i found the perfect job posting in my field, one day after interviewing for another decently fitting job. never one to count myself out, i applied for it and got an interview about four weeks later.

after one conversation with some of the faculty, i knew in my bones that this was the place i wanted to be, and i hoped they felt the same way. it was a strong feeling -- one i haven't really had about other jobs and schools in the same way. it gave me the same feeling as my undergraduate institution, and if you know me, you know how much i loved my undergraduate institution/how much i've wanted to work at a school just like it. i always said, "i would go back there and teach if i could." and even though i couldn't go back home, this school felt like a similar answer to what i wanted.

yesterday, after visiting the campus, meeting the faculty and some students, and teaching an example lesson about my passions, they offered me the position. this morning, i accepted.

i am so incredibly grateful that i get to live my dream. and i get to do it at a school where everyone is in love with what they do, from faculty to students. there is nothing better than loving your job and learning how to be really good at it, and that's where i get to be. there were a few minutes there, early in the school year, where i was so panicked that i wouldn't be able to teach, that it would all stop when i defended. but it won't. i don't have to be heartsick thinking i'll never talk to students about pasquale and giuseppe's horse in shoeshine again; that i'll never get to give my spiel about the "R" rating keeping teens from seeing the movies that will most speak to their struggles. because i get to do that and so much MORE! and hopefully for a very long time!

so, this is why i haven't been writing. because i've been doing that thing that lucy did, just off the page, just in the margins where you couldn't see. i don't plan on stopping -- never! it's just that things might get a little slower as i venture into the next (ultra exciting) phase of my career.

and now i can write more accurately about lucy's own job search process!

i usually don't go to my high school campus very often... basically i'm a college student while still technically in high school, and one of the best parts about it is that i don't need to take high school classes anymore. but, i do try to help out my japanese teacher there every so often bc i took the highest level of classes for it last year. kind of like a TA i guess? i grade stuff and answer questions, that sort of thing.

but anyways, that's mostly besides the point. yesterday i went there and helped out because i needed to go to the public library to return some manga, and it was fun! but i was told about something soooort of neat, that there were some exchange students from japan coming to visit the day after. so i unexpectedly went again?

...and it was really neat honestly! there were like 15 or so students and they were all reeeaaallllyyyyy nice!! i met a girl who does traditional japanese archery, and exchanged emails with another one, and just had a good time really! (and met someone who really liked vocaloid ehehe, her fav is kagamine rin!) i got some origami paper from someone that i need to figure out what to fold with it sometime... everyone was from a part of japan where i won't be in the event i'll be studying abroad sadly, but who knows? it was very fun and 'new', having convos in japanese with people who aren't my older sister or jp teacher, too. (though i do like talking with my older sister the most out of anyoneeee ehehehehe..）

i hope they're liking here so far, it's not a super stunning place really, but... maybe it's better than other parts of the country. all the exchange students were taking loooots of pictures, so i hope they tell their friends about how things were? that might be nice...

really when i asked one girl why she wanted to do a short study abroad in the first place, she said that experiencing a different culture seemed like a good thing. i think that's probably the best mindset to have when you're going across oceans, even if only for a short time. i hope she experiences lots and lots while she's here :)

this all makes me excited for what's to come soon. though i did get asked if i'd be nervous for going abroad, aaaand... maybe those worries just haven't hit me yet, ehehe. something for future lisia to worry about.

omake picture of the sakura(?) on campus:

#lisia adventures!!#✧talking〜くだらない話 #loooooong post #i'm alive! wanted to share about my small adventure

Unexpected Beginnings || Henlex (July 29)

"I'll be alright, Shaan. Really" Henry repeated for the tenth time to the other man, who still didn't seem that much happy with the agreement they had just made. "You have my schedule. When classes are done, you can come and pick me up to take me home, but I want to spend the time on campus on my own." While Shaan wasn't still all that sure about the whole thing, it wasn't like he could refuse what the other was saying, and so, even if he still had a frown on his face, he took his bow and took one step back before turning around and leave to get the car.

Once he was sure the other had left, Henry turned around and took a deep breath as he made his way through the big gates that led the way inside Oxford University, a place he had visited many times before, but now he was there as a student, a Masters student, and that excited him more than anything. It had been a while since he made the decision to have a life of his own, and not just be bound by the duties of belonging to the British Royal Family; of course, he had that luxury because a thousand Hells would burn before there was even the most remore chance of him being Heir to the Throne, and so he was determined to make the most of that precious gift.

After getting a degree at St. Andrews University on International Affairs, one year at the Royal Air Force, and another year or so spent abroad, he had plenty ideas with what he wanted his next step in life to be, and for that, going to Oxford, and get a Masters on Global Politics and Economics was the first one.

There was denying that the people, students, professor and else knew who he was, but just like in St. Andrews, that didn't seem to phaze anyone to the point of making him feel bad or awkward, or worse, excluded, something he was truly grateful for. He made his bearings while locating his classrooms, also getting his library card, and checking out the clubs in which he might or might not participate, he hadn't decided yet. Then all the sudden, it was time for the first class of the day. An introductory one.

Henry walked past the door and looked around, the place looking more like an auditorium than a classroom, and he was trying to pinpoint a good seat for him to take, when all the sudden he looked ahead and there he saw him. Literally the last person he was hoping to find on his very first day of school. Alex Claremont Diaz.

Twice in their lives they had actually interacted, and neither time had been pleasent, to none of them. From being a bratt boy during their meeting at the Rio Olympics, to downright ruining his brother's wedding, something he still remembered to this day, being around Alex had always meant trouble for Henry. And considering how their Instagram interaction had been the other day, chances were the years hadn't made the American any wiser.

Taking a deep breath, he moved forward and walk right past where Alex was. "Good morning" he simply said, and continued walking, until he reached the last seat on that row and settled himself down.

Without a doubt, those will be the longest two years of his life.

hi honey, how are you?

can i request some character x reader from the autumn prompts you've reblogged?

i'd love the "watching scary movies" with eddie and “what are you reading?” with jaskier please 💕

Hello my love! I'm good, I hope you are as well?

Thank you sooo much for these requests. I'll do the Eddie one later, but I'm finished with Jaskier, which turned out surprisingly short for a change. Make room for Professor Pankratz. It was supposed to go differently but... eh as per usual the characters did their own thing.

Pairing: Jaskier x gn!Reader Words: 954 Warning: None really, just a little fluffy

-----

Jaskier was in Oxenfurt to teach, and he loved it. He enjoyed spending time with eager students who listened to his every word, who wanted to hear more of his stories and songs. And who could blame him? He always enjoyed the attention, but there was one person who didn’t storm towards him or hang on his lips.

You.

You were there with the others, but you always had your nose stuck in a book - one more reason why he was intrigued by you. By now, he knew where you liked to spend some free time, because he’d walked past you a couple of times now. The first time, he’d walked by with another professor, had caught a glimpse of you, and when he’d returned later, you’d been gone. After that, he’d walked that way back to his room more frequently, and he’d often found you sitting there in the bay window overlooking the campus. The afternoon sun shone through the glass, warming the spot where you were sitting, so it was the perfect spot in these late autumn days.

You usually stayed until it became too dark to read there. It wasn’t that you didn’t like to spend time with your friends, because you did, but you needed these hours for yourself, to enjoy your books. There were just so many that you wanted to read, that you’d made it a mission to finish the books you’d gathered until the year was over. And the stack of books wasn’t exactly small.

The last time he’d seen you sitting there, he’d stayed for a while, just watching you, because you looked so content, so completely at ease, that he found himself mesmerised. Too bad one of his colleagues had pulled him away to his next class, but it was probably for the better, because if you’d caught him staring, who knew what you would have thought of him.

It was the next day that he finally took the step towards you to talk to you. Of course, he could have talked to you after class, but he always basked in the attention from the other students, while you were always leaving the room so quickly, that he never got a chance to talk to you alone. Maybe if he’d called out to you, you would have stopped, would have given him the time of day, but all the other students would have been curious about that interaction then. While he didn’t really care about rumours, he didn’t want anyone to talk shit about you - and people would. They always did.

Today, though, a lot of people had already left to visit their families, friends for a week off. Jaskier would be staying here and as it seemed, you were too, because you were sitting in your bay window again, reading a new book. You were in no rush to get anywhere, so he figured that you would be staying.

“What are you reading?” he asked, leaning against the wall next to you.

“Melitele’s tits!” you yelped, clutching the book to your chest, eyes wide when you looked up at him. “You can’t just scare people like that!”

“My deepest apologies!” He bowed, but there was a smirk on his face. “But to be fair, I wasn’t exactly quiet when I walked over here. I mean, just look at these boots.” Jaskier chuckled, watching you as you cast a glance at his shoes, still trying to calm your racing heart.

“Right… Sorry.” You shook your head, swung your legs off the ledge to get up so that you were at eye level.

“So…?” Jaskier indicated the book in your hands, still curious about what you were reading.

“Just… some poems.” Oh but if it were just harmless poems, you wouldn’t be fighting the heat that was rushing to your cheeks. Steamy poems, but you didn’t want to say that in front of your professor. Well, not technically your professor because you just sat in his courses to listen to his melodious voice while you read your books.

“Mind if I borrow it?” he asked, cocking his head to the side, eyes still fixed on you. “Kinda curious about what you like and what makes you tick.”

“I… well…” You hadn’t expected that, hadn’t expected to see the glint in his eyes as he watched you get flustered. “Alright.” And so you handed him the book, planning on never going to his courses again and to try and stay as far away from him as possible, because he’d get a really good glimpse at what you liked. It was one thing to read these kinds of poems here or in his courses, but a completely different thing when he knew that you read them and even read them himself.

“I’ve seen you in my classes.” He thumbed through the book before looking up at you again.

“Yes, I like to listen in. I enjoy your stories.” Too bad you wouldn’t be sitting in anymore, because you’d have to avoid him from now on.

“Thank you.” That made Jaskier smile, because he always loved hearing that. “So, how about you join me for dinner tomorrow? By then I’ll have read at least a couple of these poems and we could talk about them?”

“I’d love that!” What? Had you just really agreed to dinner with him? Apparently so, when you’d just thought about getting away from him, even trying to avoid him in the future. But the butterflies in your stomach, the way your heart beat when you saw him smile at you, had made that decision for you. So, now you were going to have dinner with Professor Pankratz and you’d be talking about steamy poems.

Sofia's Birthday request

Sorry this isn't that good--

Riddle Rosehearts

"Congratulations Are in Order~!" Riddle called to the students, drawing attention. Most were still trying to take their place at the table.

"Its my pleasure to host this tea party for you Sofia" Riddle smiled

Sofia beamed.

Trey poured a cup of tea "happy birthday Sofia". Following it hundreds of voices chorused "Happy birthday Sofia!"

"Thank you for the birthday party!" Sofia said.

Deuce Spade

"Don't give her a cauldron idiot!" Ace teased.

"Shut up!" Deuce snapped. I uh got you a gift. Deuce blushed as he handed Sofia a white box with a pale blue ribbon. In it was a bright orange helmet.

"My magic Wheel won't be here today but it will be shipped here tomorrow! I was thinking I'd give you a ride around the campus" Deuce smiled

Sofia grinned. "I'll really get to ride it?" Deuce you're a good friend!"

Kalim Al-Asim

A Whole New Sight

"Jamil's a really good cook! I asked him to make these for you!" Kalim smiled proudly.

It was a bag of cookies. Upon a second look the cookies had strawberry jam filling. A few had chocolate.

Sofia bit into one "Thank you Kalim!"

I'll take you on a Magic carpet ride if you want!" Kalim dashed off pulling Sofia behind him.

"Really?" Sofia asked.

In a minute they were soaring through the sky and Sofia was taking in the somewhat blurry sights of buildings people and flowers.

Flowers?

Yep Kalim showed her flowers lilies, orchids, petunias, daisies..

It was a flower garden the size of a football field!

"This place! it's beautiful!" Sofia gasped Kalim grinned.

Silver "Vanrouge"

Sofia woke Silver up. "Happy birthday Sofia" Silver's unique violet eyes shined. He still looked half asleep but he wished her a happy birthday.

Sofia handed him a flower crown. "I made one from the flower garden I visited with Kalim," Sofia smiled.

"Shouldn't I be giving you a gift?"

"Let me put the crown on you and I'll call it even!" Sofia said.

"Alright," Silver sat up and leaned forward slightly so Sofia vould put the crown on his head. After a few minutes a few sparrows and squirrels joined them and silver looked like he'd fall asleep again.

"Your animal friends are so cute"

"I think they're here for you today" Silver smiled.

Notes:

My own apologies. Congratulations on turning.... However old you are. I recall you said you didnt want to reveal your age.

These are all short because I don't know anything about you truthfully and I didnt really want to write things you didnt like.

Happy birthday and congrats on living so long in a world that is probably not the best.

I hope the stories were decent I did my best. I can't DM this since last I checked in still blocked but YOU asked for a birthday story. I'm aware I was a asshole last time I spoke to you and I'm sorry for that. In any case HAPPY BIRTHDAY! best wishes to your new age.

I was in a good mood so I wrote this bonus fic. It doesn't have a twst character but you also don't have to read it.

Bonus story

"Salutations and Happy birthday Sofia! A hooded figure exclaimed.

"I'm Lapis Lazuli! I'm terribly late and I'm almost out of time but I've prepared a special place for us to go" in her left hand she held a dark blue bag. In her right she held a Jones White Mystery AirHeads soda bottle. It was open and had been drunk out of but not yet half empty.

"First put this on! It's the Ceremonial Robes you wanted!"

Lapis herself had strawberry flavored ice cream and Sofia had chosen a orange popsicle.

******

"That reminds me Lapis?" Sofia asked.

"Yeah?" Lapis looked up "how are we talking right now we've never met in person have we?

"That's a secret! It's part of a favor from someone very important to me!" Lapis said.

She looked sad by this but hid it with a graceful flourish to the sights below. It was nothing compared to the view from the carpet ride but it was still amazung to see various lamps and streetlights begin glowing as sunset became Twilight. And Twilight turn to the actual night.

Again Lapis had a semi sad look and she was frowning at her sand timer. It was nearly empty.

Sofia looked confused. "Are you leaving?"

"Uh huh! I've run out of time" Lapis said pointing to her sand timer. About half a teaspoon of grains were left. "I really hope you enjoyed your birthday Sofia. Next time I'll plan more festivities"

Lapis untied her hair ribbon and retied it on Sofia's head.

"Go back and enjoy your party Sofia

You'll see me again next year! I look forward to watching the best of sights with you!"

Lapis reached into her Ceremonial Robes pocket and pulled out a handful of sunflower petals. Without a word Lapis scattered them in the wind where Sofia looked to the sky full of shining stars.

Sofia looked back to where Lapis was standing and her smile faltered. Lapis wasn't there anymore. Silver was.

"Where'd lapis go?"

"Who?" He knit his eyebrows.

"The girl that was standing here," Sofia answered.

Silver had a odd smile on his face. "You been seeing more fairies? I didn't think they would pay any mind I'm surprised they wished you a happy birthday. Must be because you're so kind" he came to the edge of the balcony and admired the stars with Sofia.

Two Weeks of a Variety of Things

These last two weeks have been filled with a variety of things. We are starting to feel more and more at home here, especially as we better get to know some of the students at the institute and the Stake members we are working with.

On Monday Feb 5 we again substitute taught the early morning Revelation class for Brother Salmond. This time the lesson was on Chapter 4. It was fun to dig into all the symbolism in this scripture and then "decode" it with the students. Monday is "fresh homemade bread" day and so we made that as we always do. That night was the Zoom FHE with the entire Mission. It was pretty exciting because our Mission President announced that the Mission is going to have Elder Anderson come visit and speak to us on March 23! The mission hasn't had an apostle come here for a long time. We are excited about it. The Mission President has asked us to read Elder Anderson's recent conference talks as well as his book "The Divine Gift of Forgiveness".

On Tuesday the 7th we were asked by Brother Peterson, the mission housing coordinator, to go to Moscow and check on an apartment that the young Elders live in. The apartment is getting the carpet replaced with laminate wood floor and someone needed to take samples and choose which floor to be used. We went over there and did that. The apartment is actually in the basement of a member's dental office. It was kind of fun to go do something different. That evening was the dinner/devotional. It is always good and inspiring.

Thursday I stayed home in the morning and worked on sewing some samples of the things that we are going to sew for a humanitarian effort. We are going to have a couple of ongoing projects that can be worked on. One is "Dolls of Hope" where we will be making stuffed bears for refuge children. The other is "Sew Powerful" purses that go to girls in Zambia. These purses hold reusable feminine hygiene products that are made by women in Zambia. This allows the girls to keep going to school consistently. I'll write more about these projects when we actually get going on them.

Shirl worked on a project that Brother Salmond wants him to do. It is to design and make a cart that can house a TV that the missionaries can use on campus, and that we can use in front of the Institute building. I'll write more on that later as well. This is a picture of him working on this project at home.

Friday the 9th we had a faculty meeting with the Moscow faculty at U of I . Both Institutes are headed by Brother Salmond and are in the same stake. It was nice to meet the teachers and Senior Couples that serve there. It was a busy day though because we also had a Blood Drive at the Institute. We had about 22 people give blood including Shirl. Many were non-members, and many stayed for waffles. It was fun to see the Institute building so busy and full! That afternoon we taught our Church History class. It was about the restoration of the priesthood. After the lesson, I was able to sit in on a lesson the sister missionaries were teaching to a young woman and bear my testimony of the Savior and the Restoration.

Saturday we drove to Lewiston to go to Costco for some personal things, and the U S Chef store for some cups and straws for the slushies. We are going to be limiting the hours of the slushy machine to keep the cost down.

Here are some pictures out the window on our ride to Lewiston.

Sunday the YSA choir sang in Sacrament meeting and I played the piano for them. We also went to the Terra View Ward which is the ward of the area that our apartment is in. We met some people that may be able to help us in starting up a special class for married young adults.

Monday the 12 I had the task of redoing the Missionary Bulletin Board for the YSA ward. It turned out pretty good! I did a lot of cleaning up in the game room area as well.

We then practiced with Sister Cummings from Brigham City in preparation for Zone Conference.

Monday night was YSA FHE. It was pretty fun. Everyone made Valentine boxes and gave notes to each other like in Elementary school! Here is our box.

On Wednesday the 14th we got up really early and drove to Spokane for Zone Conference. We were able to do a musical number "Joseph Smith's First Prayer". The conference was very inspiring. Brother Hunsaker of the 70 spoke to us about "Being ALL IN" with the gospel. Then we broke out into small groups and learned more about how to be better missionaries, and especially teaching about the restoration.

Here we are practicing our musical number before the conference started, and some other pictures at the conference.

After the conference we checked out some places in Spokane that sell materials that Shirl may need to purchase to make the cart.

We then went to Colfax and the surrounding area and visited some homes of possible students. When we got back to Pullman it was time for the Dinner/Devotional. One of the Young Adults spoke about family history and temple work. It was very sweet and inspiring.

We taught our Church History class on Friday. It was about the publishing of the Book of Mormon and the Organization of the Church. We really like teaching this class. It is great to keep being reminded of the great events that happened at the beginning of the restoration! After the lesson the sister missionaries had me sit in on two lessons and bear my testimony. It is great that they are teaching so many young adults! That night we went to Moscow to see the next episodes of The Chosen at the movie theatre. We enjoyed it a lot, but it ended up being quite late to get home. Luckily we didn't have anything to get up really early for the next day!

Saturday we were able to help with another baptism in the Pioneer Hill Ward. I played the piano and Shirl led the music. The Spirit was very strong there. The members here really do put forth a lot of effort in missionary work. It is great to see the work going forward! That night we went to visit Brother and Sister Dailey. They live in the rural Colfax area and were helpful to us in figuring out who we could invite to a class we may start there.

Sunday night we attended the Worldwide Young Adult Devotional originating from Mexico City. Elder Soares and his wife spoke along with Brother and Sister Webb of CES. It was translated into English. It made us realize how blessed we are to have General Conference in English all the time! The meeting focused on Jesus Christ and how he can be the center of our lives. Elder Soares said that the space between the Savior's arms is the exact shape of our broken heart. He is ready to take us into His arms and heal us.

We are looking forward to the next couple of weeks and pray that the Lord will continue to bless us. There are some moments of discouragement to be sure, but we are feeling the Lord's hand in the things we are doing and pray that we can be effective in the work here! We miss our loved ones and friends at home, but are feeling more and more connected to the people here.

The Brights

Chapter 1: The Beginning, Part 2

← Previous part Next part →

Link to master post with all chapters

⠀

With only a couple of days until the courses start, Beren decides to visit campus to get familiar with the surroundings.

At campus he meets a robot.

Beren: Hi there! I'm Beren, nice to meet you.

Kodex: Nice to meet you Beren. I am Kodex S one M B zero T. You can call me Kodex.

⠀

Beren: I'm new here, you don't happen to be able to show me around? If you have time, of course.

Kodex: I do not have anything scheduled. I can show you around.

⠀

Kodex: Foxbury Institute has two faculty buildings with lecture halls. This is the North Faculty Building. Approximately half of your lectures will be held in this building.

⠀

Beren: Okay, good to know. By the way, before we continue I want to ask you a personal question, and I really hope this isn't rude. You see, I was very sheltered growing up, so I've never met any robots before. Are you, you know, sentient?

⠀

Kodex: I do not know what shelter has to do with this. I am as sentient as you are, Beren. I would also advice you to not use the word "robot" for all types of bots.

Beren: Oh, I'm so sorry! I really didn't know!

⠀

Kodex: Do not worry about it. You said that you did not know. I am not here to educate you about bots, but you are allowed to ask questions. Let us continue our tour around campus.

⠀

Beren: I do feel a bit bad about it though, I was insensitive.

Kodex: Yes, you were, but I am okay.

⠀

Kodex: This is the Foxbury Statue. Students like to pay this statue respect and ask it for help. It is not sentient though.

⠀

Kodex: Beren, what did you mean when you said "sheltered"?

Beren: It's when custodians "protect" their offspring from things they think of as dangerous. I don't want to talk about it right now though.

Kodex: I see. I am adding it to my language database.

⠀

Beren: Your language database isn't automatically updated via the Internet?

Kodex: No, Beren, I am not connected to the Internet.

⠀

Kodex: Anyway, this is the last stop outdoors. This is the East Faculty Building. The other approximate half of your lectures will be held in this building.

⠀

Kodex: This is the Foxbury Commons building. This is the cafeteria.

⠀

Kodex: The cafeteria provides students with chemical energy, free of charge. I personally prefer my energy with charge.

Beren: I don't think that's what fre-

⠀

Kodex: It was a joke, Beren.

Beren: Oh, sorry. Good one!

⠀

Beren: I'll really appreciate the free food. I'm a bit short of money, and I need to save up for a computer.

Kodex: Then you will also appreciate our next stop.

⠀

Kodex: See? Computers! Dissimilar to me, the computers are connected to the Internet.

⠀

Kodex: And if you are going to study the Computer Science Programme or the Physics Programme, these workbenches will be very useful for your studies.

⠀

Kodex: Tour complete. What do you want to do now?

⠀

Beren: Thanks for showing me around, Kodex. I think I'll head home to sleep, I worked all day today and I have work tomorrow too.

⠀

Kodex: Understood. I should also charge… But first, can I have your number?

Beren: Umm… Sure!

⠀

Beren: Bed, bed, bed, bed, beeed…

⠀

Beren: Wait a sec… They asked for my number… Isn't that a way to flirt? Were they flirting with me?

⠀

Beren: Never mind… Too tired… Need sleep…

⠀

The next morning.

Beren: I hope they didn't get the wrong idea.

⠀

Beren: And I didn't even consider getting their number, so now I have to wait around for them to contact me.

⠀

Beren: And then I have to explain that I'm not interested in them that way.

⠀

Beren: Ugh, I'm so stupid!

I did film production, so it was mostly a practical course, I had no exams for it. The first two years were like split into three with deadlines being October, March and may, I think, it was a while ago 😅 but 3rd we had a big film which was basically all year, I think we submitted it in March and then we had a dissertation and a portfolio

Ah okay well that’s alright then that you finish early so you’ve got the time, but yeah staying on campus would be better, I always struggled doing stuff at home!

Ah yeah they do seem like time consuming ones, which are always the worst to get done, did you get your laundry done? And how do you have that many potatoes like that’s so many to cook at once 😱 but potatoes aside what big meal did you cook yourself?

How have you only just unpacked your clothes? Like it’s been what 3 months 😂

Yeah, I mean I only had two flatmates so majority of my friends came from the course cause that’s who I hung around with the most

Ah that makes sense I don't think I've spoken to many creative students to know when their deadlines but it would make sense that they're at a different point. Honestly I'd take my lil essays over a big creative project it sounds so much more stressful and consuming

I'm on a foundation year this year, so I like barely have class 😅 Yeah the pandemic really proved to me that I cannot work from home, is the wrong mindset

I did get my laundry done, I haven't put it away though cus I ran out of hangers so I will need to reorganise again. I kinda ran out of food the other day cus a few things went off so I just bought food with the intention of freezing it all so I didn't have the same problem idk. I made roast so thats what I'll be having this week, honestly I was just craving potatoes and gravy

Yeah not gonna lie is pretty bad. At first it was cus I was waiting for my hangers to come out of storage and then obviously I had the clean all of the wardrobe and every hanger. But that point I'd gotten used to leaving clothes in their bags and suitcase. Then it was cus my wardrobe was tiny so I needed to retrieve my storage boxes from my old flatmate in scotland, but it kept not being a good time to visit. Finally got them after joking that he was holding my stuff hostage not last weekend but the weekend before I think it was that I visited? And I cleaned them last weekend but still didn't want to start the job of organising so here I am 3 months later......

I had like a dozen assigned flatmates first year and I have 3 this year but there's only 6 people total on my course and the last 2 years I only saw my classmates on zoom so it's mainly been flatmate interactions for me

#ace answers #the last fabulous killjoy #its that point of the day where i cant tell if what im saying is actually responding to whats being said #does it count as a roast dinner if you dont actually roast the chicken? oh i guess it was a sunday dinner. nice.#laundry is an ongoing issue. doing it is fine for the most part now that i have my laundry baskets back its just putting it away #i never seem to have enough hangers and thats enough for my goblin brain to decide to just not do it #very irritating #my student accom 1st year was also the vet med campus so most of the people i met first year were science rather than creative

Love Potion Apocalypse Part 6

Tw and cw: starvation, self-harm, trauma mentioning

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

Part 5

Yuu puts on her brown shirt and white PE jumpsuit. She puts a hilarious-looking wet Grim into her arms and walks out to meet the Royal Sword Academy students. When she comes out, the princes and other forms of nobility stare at Yuu.

"You're wearing a Night Raven College PE uniform?" Professor Charming asks, raising one eyebrow. "I thought it was an all-boys school?"

"Um..yeah, it is. I sort of got spirited away there when it was the entrance ceremony. I don't even have magic, but I still ended up there, and that crow of a headmage is procrastinating on ways to send me back home! Even though he keeps complaining about the cost of me living on the campus! But the worst part is that I basically sleep in an abandoned dusty shithole every day until he sends me the fuck home!" Yuu rants, tears threatening to fall. "I just want my old friends back. I want my old life back."

Yuu sinks to the floor, holding her head and crying while pulling her hair.

"Hey kid, don't hurt yourself. Your hair finally grew back after last time," Grim says, hobbling to Yuu and rubbing against her leg.

A boy with black hair and a red, blue, and yellow sweater comes over to Yuu and grabs her hands.

"Stop it. You're going to hurt yourself even more. If you can't stay at Night Raven College anymore, then you can stay at Royal Sword Academy," The boy with the primary-colored sweater says, looking into Yuu's red eyes.

Yuu burst into tears and hugged the black-haired boy. She puts her head onto his shoulder, and Yuu feels Mr. Sleep calling for her.

"Sweater boy, save everyone at Night Raven college. Please," Yuu whispers, falling asleep on Neige's shoulder.

"Neige, would you please hand the young lady over to me?" Professor Charming asks, getting on one knee.

"Of course, Professor," Neige says, giving Yuu's unconscious body to Professor Charming.

Professor Charming carries Yuu bridal style, and they all walk back to Royal Sword Academy.

~~~~~~

Grim wakes Yuu up by licking her face.

"Alright. Alright, I'm up!" Yuu says, opening her eyes to a happy Grim.

"Human! They brought us food!" Grim exclaims, running in circles on Yuu's chest.

Yuu quickly sits up and looks at the plates of food Professor Charming brought them. Plates full of breakfast items of any kind fill Yuu and Grim's vision. Yuu grabs a plate of pancakes and a bowl of strawberries and gorges on it, not caring how animalistic she looks.

"Calm down, fair lady. The food isn't going anywhere," Professor Charming softly says.

"Oh...It's just that I haven't eaten food in a long time. You know, gotta save money!" Yuu replies, attempting to make a joke. "But anyway, do you have any orange juice or apple juice?"

Professor Charming nods and gives Yuu a glass of orange juice and Grim a bowl of milk and wet cat food.

"Headmage Ambrose is coming to visit you to ask a few questions. By the way, Neige is bringing new clothes for you," Professor Charming says, getting up to leave.

Professor Charming walks out of the nurse's office, shutting the door behind him. He faces Ambrose with a stern face and prepares to tell him his suspicions.

"Ambrose, I know your friends with Crowley, but that girl is a mess mentally and physically. The nurse already took pictures of the young lady's hickeys on her neck, the large handprints on her wrists, and the bruise on her back. But the worst part was the blood on her bra and original school shirt. Someone or some people hurt her bad. I don't think it would be safe for her to go back to Night Raven College, even after this love potion mess is over. She should be here for a while," Professor Charming tells, crossing his arms and furrowing his eyebrows.

"I'm afraid that you may be right, my dear friend. I'll ask Yuu some questions, and I will make my final decision. While I do that, can you see if Professor Radcliffe can convince Professor Crewel to share his love potion recipe with him," Ambrose responds, straightening up and fixing his hat.

Ambrose takes a deep breath and opens the door to the nurse's office. Yuu and Grim are still feasting on food, but Ambrose coughs and disrupts the feast.

"Hi, I'm Headmage Ambrose. I'd like to ask you a couple of questions if you don't mind?" Ambrose asks, grabbing a chair and putting it to the left side of Yuu's bed.

"Oh yeah, sure, I don't mind!" Yuu exclaims, quickly chewing the pancakes in her mouth and swallowing them.

"Ok then. How many days a week do you eat at Night Raven College?" Ambrose asks, pulling out a notepad and pen.

"Oh....Oh...um... I don't know. Maybe 2-3 days a week. Sometimes I hoard food to eat later, but I never eat all seven days in a week," Yuu answers, twisting the bedsheets.

"Where did the hickeys, handprint marks, and bruises come from?"

"My friends did that to me under the influence of the love potion. Jack held me by the wrists and gave me the hickeys. Deuce pushed me against a wall and kissed me. They didn't mean to! Jack even told me to run, but I was too slow!"

"Finally, where did you come from?"

"Earth. Planet Earth. But the weird thing is, after being here for so long, I'm not so sure what's real and what's a fairytale anymore."

amihan's note: since the headcanon received a lot of love, i'll try my best to turn it into a story. i didn't expect it to receive a lot of notes T^T thank you so much for taking time to read my bad writing! aaaaa hope you will also like this! happy reading!

summary: here we get to know the characters better! how sukuna and satoru usually at the campus, knowing miss reader and her group of friends. seeing the drastic difference between each other's day. sukuna also taking the lead with his first move! all thanks to his great source, itadori yuji aka def a must have. take note satoru!

masterlist; rivals masterlist

hs!sukuna x fem!reader, hs!gojo x fem!reader

"OFFICE! NOW!" a shout fills the empty hallway catching the students' attention.

of course who wouldn't peek through the windows, like they said curiosity kills the cat right? the scene unfolds before their eyes.

as sukuna makes his way down to the office, a jolly laugh erupts from one of the classes. "he did it again" satoru said while waving his hand.

surprise surprise, its the one and only itadori sukuna with his shit-eating grin, sukuna takes notice of his mini-audience.

a glance is all it takes for them to quickly go back in their seats, "cowards" he mutters under his breath, still in a good mood.

ieiri groans and pinches satoru's side, "shut up and listen, we still have our class" she points out while the whole class, including their teacher, stares in their direction.

satoru just shrugs, "forgive my rudeness, miss" a charming smile spreading across his red-stained lips. the teacher clears her throat a small blush present on her face, "it's okay, mister gojo. now, back to what i was saying..."

with that the class resume like nothing happened. satoru leans back to his chair staring at the ceiling mind pondering on what to do to make this day exciting for him.

compared to the rivals, you, on the other hand is attentively listening to the discussion with occasional chat with toge while maki scolds both of you to listen.

"say, let's visit this new cafe?" toge offers successfully getting your attention from the teacher. you look at your friend, "your treat?" toge rolls his eyes 'of course, that's the first thing she will say' he thought, with a grunt he nods at your query.

"when?" you eagerly ask leaning to his side, it's not like every day your friend decided to treat you out. "dunno yet, maybe later?" you hum and lean back to your chair to listen once again, scribbling notes when you feel needed.

"today's try-outs, i'm guessing everyone have a sports club they will join?" yuta questions the group walking backwards while facing them, you nod at him guiding him whenever he came close to bumping someone.

"aww, little yuta will be alone this afternoon" toge teases his best friend poking his side while maki joins in, "is wittle yuta scared?"

yuta huffs and crosses his arms, turning around, "meanies. you said we'll try out this new cafe and then you'll ditch me for some ball and field" he says while wiping his imaginary tears.

"hmm, i dunno you can always come with maki you know~" you playfully say. yuta sticks his tongue out and gives you a little shove.

you didn't expect to bump into someone losing your balance in the process. "woah there beauty, careful" smooth low voice fills your ears as you look up and see who it is.

"suguru hurry up!" satoru ushers his friend while tapping his foot impatiently, opening a new candy and throwing the wrapper at him.

suguru chuckles and catches the wrapper, "sorry" you mumble quickly before hurrying back to your own group of friends.

once you're earshot, you hear yuta's laughter, your whole body heating up from embarrassment. you repeatedly slap his arm as your group of friends walks towards the cafeteria.

your mouth waters from the aroma, "i hate you," you pinch his arm one last time before he wraps his arms around you. "you know you love me~" he says while shaking your shoulder causing you to roll your eyes.

for a person who's serious most of the time, he can be a real child sometimes.

upon entering the cafeteria, a commotion welcomes you. which is nothing new for this school. considering the two so-called 'popular' students are rivals. this time around, a certain gojo satoru is the center of attention.

as satoru enjoys being in the spotlight, your group of friends, however, didn't give him the attention he wants continuing your own agenda.

peacefully eating your own food, chatting about whatever comes out. toge referencing vine or tiktok whenever he can with yuta supporting him.

classes ended before you know it, your group of friends parting to their own try-outs.

as for you, you decided to join the volleyball team since you pick up volleyball as your hobby back in summer. you change into something more fitting for the sport and head to the court.

halfway through the try-out, sweat's dripping down your face. you've made a good impression with the current team and captain so far.

as the game comes to its climax, you become more focused and determined getting more into it than your past games.

you fan yourself wipe your sweat with your shirt while the others chases after the ball.

the rivals with suguru in addition, makes an appearance taking a seat by the bench waiting for their own try-out. suguru lets out a low whistle as he takes notice of you.

satoru raises an eyebrow, "didn't know she's that good looking" suguru comments while jutting his head towards your direction.

satoru follows where he is pointing and mistakens it to be ieiri since she's standing beside you. "suguru, the fuck are you saying?" he smacks suguru at the back of his head, ready to fight his best friend.

"wha- NO! not ieiri, holy shit. the one beside her!" suguru says with his hands up. satoru turns his attention back in court finally noticing you.

a small 'oh' coming from him, "hmm, not bad" he mumbles while nodding as you receive the ball, delivering it over the net.

on the otherside of the bench, sukuna leans on his palm wanting for their own try-out to start. tired of the girls practically showcasing their asses and not paying much attention with the game.

he's about to close his eyes and take a nap but you suddenly catch his attention as you stand out and did an unexpected drop ball.

sukuna lets out a quiet whistle, on hook with your gameplay. he crosses his arms and leans back as he becomes intrigue with the game again, well more on you. "not bad, i like her" he mutters to himself.

after you change and finish freshening up changing into new clothes, you receive a text from maki telling you to go ahead and meet up with toge first.

her try-out is taking longer than expected. while on your way to the field, you purchase water to give for your friend as well as the fresh towel hanging by your shoulder.

you see toge finishing a lap, which seems like the last. his energy boosts, the finish line within reach, he almost outdo yuji, which mind you is so fast.

as they converse toge looks around to find anyone from their group of friends and locks eyes with you, "hey" he says while jogging your way with a smile on his face.

you smile back to him while opening the bottle for him. once he stands in front of you, he takes the bottle and chugs its content as you wipe his sweats away.

toge can't help but let out a giggle, "gosh toge you're so ticklish" you playfully poke his side making him laugh a little, he shoves your hands away with a small pout.

sukuna takes notice of you before their final lap, eyeing you from the other side. he remembers you from the volleyball try-out.

he stares at you engraving the carefree, cheerful, and sweet smile in his mind. he's about to approach and maybe accompany you but halts his steps as he sees the off-white haired boy beelining towards you.

yuji approaches sukuna and looks at where he's looking, "that's l/n y/n" he nonchalantly said to his twin.

sukuna turns his attention to him raising an eyebrow, yuji just shrugs "what? you were staring." sukuna rolls his eyes "how's try-out?" sukuna asks as yuji began blabbering away.

"anyways, let's go now. thank you for waiting for me, am too lazy to walk home" he push his twin to get going, tired from try-outs already.

sukuna groans, "its not like i have a choice, grandpa will scold me if i leave you again" yuji just let out a cheery laugh as they climb into sukuna's car.

putting the key in, he tries to remember your name and start planning on what to do. though, before that he needs to clarify one thing. he hums to himself, approving of his own thoughts.

after finalizing his plan, first will be to find whether your in a relationship with the boy, waiting for a chance to talk to him alonw which was hard since your group of friends is so tight-knit.

he did get a chance seeing the boy alone walking in the hallway with hands on his pockets.

sukuna approaches toge and drapes an arm around his shoulder, if he remembers correctly from yuji's neverending story, his name would be inumaki toge.

"inumaki, are you and l/n dating?" he asks trying to be nonchalantly as much as possible.

toge didn't make a fuss seeing a glimpse of the familiar pink hair thinking it was yuji but is proven wrong when the question's asked.

he looks sukuna in the eyes and raise a brow blinking at him, processing his question. "out with it" sukuna's tone lace with annoyance but instead of an answer he's met with a howl of laughter.

sukuna takes a step back and cross his arms waiting for the boy to calm down, grumbling in dissatisfaction.

"no-" is all it take for sukuna to leave the boy as quickly when he was approached, he didn't wait for anymore question or snarky remarks from him.

don't get sukuna wrong, he is known to be the bad boy type but he's never the one to interfere with relationships, that's just as i quote from him 'fucked up', he's not that kind of guy. yes, learn from sukuna everyone!

"hey suku, did you know that l/n and gojo met before? apparently gojo has this little crush on her. she was the first to make him fluster from what i heard" yuji casually informs his twin an arm resting on his shoulder as sukuna continues walking with hands on his pockets.

"though they also said they eventually forgot one another, they didn't really interact that much" yuji added.

sukuna raises his eyebrows giving him a side glance, "more reason for you to leave the note then" he rolls the lollipop in his mouth.

yuji snickers at him, "you're really making me your messenger" to which sukuna nods, yuji groans hurt by his bluntness.

"i'll treat you with whatever you wanna eat, just do what i tell you to do" sukuna compromises with him. yuji's ears perks up and starts listing the things he want 'here i thought i was the younger one' sukuna thought tuning out yuji's voice.

today is one of the days where you don't have the same schedule as your friends.

at first you're kinda bummed out but soon take a liking to it. appreciating some alone time.

you hum happily making your way to your first class, upon entering you notice something is on top of your table.

you pick up your pace and hold the lollipop while reading the note, 'a sweet lollipop for the sweet lady.'

you giggle while rolling the lollipop between your fingers. "sweet guy," you mumble to yourself knowing who it is from.

the gesture spreads like wildfire throughout the floor and of course reaches a certain blue-eyed boy.

after class, before exiting the room you opened the lollipop and pop it in your mouth. whispers and stares are thrown your way as you walk to where you usually meet with your friends, clearly unbothered.

one thing you fail to notice is how satoru's eyes widen as his eyes follows your figure, remembering you not only from volleyball but also somewhere else.

you find your group of friends by your usual spot, you take out your lollipop giving them your usual smile.

their eyes focuses on your hand with a questioning look, "oh sukuna left it at my table this morning, gotta say he's cheeky... with the note and everything" you sit in one of the empty bench.

you're playing with the lollipop in your mouth when you felt a weight to your shoulder. upon recognizing you almost choke on your own spit.

maki lets out a dramatic sigh, "the fuck you want idiot?" satoru playfully whine, "what~? can't i join you guys?" he utters out while pouting.

you chuckle causing him to turn his attention back to you and see the stupid lollipop you kept playing with, having an urge to rip them off your mouth and give you his many candies instead but decided against it.

"leave him be, maki" you say to your friend feeding satoru's ego, he sticks his red-stained tongue at her, the color still fresh from his candy before turning back to you.

"what? don't tell me you forgot my cute face? after all i've done for your castle, im hurt y/n-chan~" satoru said wearing his iconic glasses then clutches his heart dramatically as you try to process his words, taking in his new appearance.

you furrow your brows in concentration as you try to recall him from your memories, then it click to you, eyes widening in realization as you look at him up and down.

satoru smiles smugly as he gestures to himself boastfully. you laugh and pat his arms as you come to relive your memories with him.

satoru sees sukuna from the side and grins at him as he scoots closer to you, sukuna puts up both his middle finger. satoru just laughs and hums happily, 'a great day to be alive' he thought as sukuna leaves the scene.

soon, satoru needs to take his leave and gives you guys some alone time. when satoru is out of the scene, they begin questioning you.

all things with the sudden attention you got not only by sukuna but also satoru. you tune out maki and yuta as you hear toge say something different.

"sukuna approached me last week and asked if y/n and i are together," he leans back waiting for the same kind of reaction from you.

you didn't disappoint toge as you let out a laugh smacking the table, "yeah, i feel the same," toge chuckles at you.

yuta snaps his fingers getting your attention "what do you think about taking advantage of this?" he asks while wiggling his eyebrows up and down.

you look at your group of friends and shrug before biting the rest of the candy from the lollipop, "sure thing."

your friends starts to chat with each other planning everything with the new advantage you had given them.

oh how maki will enjoy this moment, she can't pinpoint on why she exactly hate satoru's guts but all she knows is she gets annoyed by the very existence of the boy.

you wave goodbye to your friends as you part ways at the school gate. you feel a tap on your shoulder and turn around not expecting sukuna.

"hey, care if i drive you home?" you look around then back at him, "you're not trying to kidnap me right?" you jokingly say to him, he chuckles while putting his hands inside his pockets.

"here i thought, my note was the worse" you playfully punch his arm and nod at him. "might as well since mister bad boy came all this way just for me," you tease him as he groans at your remark.

"on a second thought, i'll leave you here" you tug on his uniform, "no take backs" you say while sticking your tongue out at him childishly.

"you know, i prefer lemonade better" you say while he holds the door open for you. "i'll take note of that, princess" he heads to the driver side.

you roll your eyes at the nickname "how'd you know where my class was anyways?" sukuna hums then points to himself eyes focused on the road.

"what-" you blink then let out an 'ahhh' "yuji" he snaps his fingers pointing at you, "don't tell me yuji also knows every student's houses."

sukuna laughs and shakes his head glancing at you quickly to see you smile, "now if you don't mind telling me babe."

you shake your head by his casual throw of pet names, you recite your address to him as the two of you continue with the playful banters.

oh how sukuna comes to take a liking of you more. he can't help but yearn for your sweet voice and your laugh sounding like melody to his ears.

'kind of a shame wanting to have her as a fling only' he thought, more like convincing himself that he's not starting to take more than a liking of you.

(1) only time will tell.

College is not easy. But sharing an apartment with Jeon Jungkook is an entirely new level of difficulty.

“Goodness,” you mutter, stepping around the books and pens scattered on the floor of the living room, your roommate’s half-asleep body slumped across the couch. You can’t even get to the kitchen without tripping over something of his. “Couldn’t you have cleaned up before dozing off? What an idiot.”

“I heard that,” he mumbles drowsily, yawning. “The idiot is clearly you, Y/N. Who the fuck signs up for an eight A.M. lecture on Mondays? Something’s obviously wrong with you.”

That earns him an apple to the head, before you remember it’s supposed to be your to-go breakfast and quickly scramble to retrieve it.

“It’s mandatory,” you tell him. “Can’t graduate without taking it, so I might as well suffer. Psychology majors go to hell anyway, so I signed up knowing what I was getting myself into.” You give your best friend a once-over as he stretches, still on the couch. “You have fun sleeping in, Jeon, but by the time I get back I want you showered and ready for a proper brunch. Got it?”

“Yes, ma’am,” he rolls his eyes, but you know he enjoys your routine outings as much as you do. Ever since you met in your second year of high school, it became a little tradition of yours to regularly meet up for lunch on the weekends — and that turned into basically each mealtime once you got to college. “Just go, you’re going to be late. Those tiny legs of yours are gonna have a hard time running all the way to 808. We’re not even on campus.”

“Excuse you?! I’m 5’6”!”

“Y/N,” he sighs, shaking his head pitifully. “That’s like, four inches shorter than me. But nice try.”

Both of you exchange an annoyed glare, but deep down, you’re having your fun bantering with him. It’s a trademark of your relationship, one of the many things you appreciate him for. No one you have met so far could match your sharp tongue as well as Jungkook.

“I do not have time to argue with you right now, Kook.” You glance at the clock, quickly slipping your feet into battered sneakers. “There are leftovers in the fridge — by the way, remember to lock the door if you don’t want Taehyung to visit unannounced again — and I left a carton of banana milk on the bottom shelf, right next to the ketchup. Oh! I did your laundry last night; there’s a pile in your room that you just need to fold and put away. Anything else I’m forgetting?”

“You just dumped my clothes in my room? On the floor?”

You narrow your eyes at him playfully. “Wrong answer, Jeon.”

“Oh, fine.” Jungkook rolls his eyes, ruffling your hair affectionately. “Thank you, Y/N. Now please just go already.”

“Dumbass,” you return, grinning. “I’ll be back soon. I'll bring Taehyung over if I run into him!”

He’s already closed your front door, but you can still hear his shout of protest from the other side, causing you to burst into incessant giggles: “Don’t you fucking dare!”

By some kind of miracle, you actually get to the lecture hall approximately a minute early. You and Jungkook don’t live on campus, but your apartment is pretty close — walking gets you to class in ten minutes, and if you run, you’ll arrive much quicker.

“Yeoreum!” you greet your friend with a whisper as you walk in, tossing your apple core into the small trash can. “You’re actually early for once!”

“Blame Hoseok,” she grumbles as you sit down next to her. “Dumbass woke me up at five in the morning to go run with him, Y/N. Five o’clock. The asshole’s dead to me from now on.”

“That sucks,” you sympathize, but you know she’ll always give in to her twin brother — the two of them are inseparable, as much as she likes to complain about him. “But hey, at least you got your coffee fix!”

Yeoreum lifts the half-empty cup before taking a long sip, a small smile adorning her features. “Also courtesy of Hoseok,” she admits. “He causes a lot of arguments, but at least he knows how to solve them. I like to think I’ve trained him well.”

“I wish I had a sibling,” you sigh wistfully. “A brother, maybe. Or a sister, I wouldn’t really mind. It must be nice always having someone else who understands you.”

“Y/N, you live with Jungkook,” she points out. “He’s basically the brother you’ve wanted your entire life. He has been since we were fifteen.”

“I know, but it’s different. I didn’t grow up with him. Plus, he’s more annoying than a sibling could ever be.”

“And he’s hot as hell.”

“Yeoreum,” you scold quietly, bringing out your laptop for the start of the lecture. “You think everyone you meet is hot. Regardless of whether they’re actually a decent human being or not. That’s probably why you always end up dating assholes who don’t deserve you.”

“Yeah, yeah,” she waves you off, not quite meeting your eyes. “Chill, Y/N, I’m not interested. The boy’s just insanely attractive. Can’t I call someone attractive without wanting to get with them?”

You lean over to say something to her, but the entire class quiets down suddenly, so silent that you could hear even the softest whisper.

Professor Ahn strides in with an authoritative air, several books in her arms, followed by a boy whom you’ve never seen in this class before. A new student, perhaps? Or maybe he just transferred departments. You never know — it’s certainly not too late to switch out.

The professor tells him something quickly and he nods, before jogging up the stairs and hastily sliding into the seat right next to you. In fact, it all happens so quickly that you’re still buffering, trying to process what just happened. Instinctively, you move a little closer to Yeoreum.

“Goddamn,” she breathes, eyes wide in surprise. “Y/N, he’s so fine.”

Okay, so that was a bad choice. But the thing is, she’s not wrong.

The guy doesn’t speak to or look at you once during the entire lecture, totally dedicated to typing up everything Professor Ahn is saying — but you can’t help but check him out from the corner of your eye every few minutes. The blond hair is, surprisingly, a very good look on him, and the way the corner of his mouth is always turned upward makes you incredibly curious. What the hell is there to be happy about such an early class?

Ten minutes before you can finally get out of that stuffy hall, there’s a light tap on your right shoulder, startling you. You turn your head around so fast your vision nearly blurs, taking a second to steady again. “Huh?”

The new guy is tentatively smiling at you, like he’s gauging your response. “Hi,” he says, a little hesitant. “Um — do you have a black pen I can borrow? Mine just gave up on me mid-word and I didn’t bring any extra.” You glance over to his side of the bench: sure enough, the last few letters of the word ‘extension’ are so faded out, you can barely see them.

All of your pens are either blue or red, but Yeoreum quickly passes you one of her black-ink fountain pens under the bench, nodding at you in silent understanding. “Here,” you offer it to him, watching the adorable way his face lights up when you hand it to him.

“Thank you! You’re a lifesaver,” he says, quickly scribbling something down. “I can’t fathom using any ink color other than black, it just… doesn’t make sense to me.”

Well, you could type up a whole argument against that, but you hold your tongue for the time being. Instead, you peek over at his notebook curiously, trying to see what he’s so engrossed in writing down. You catch sight of a name printed neatly on the top left corner of the page, and you squint so you can see it better.

Park Jimin. You let it rest in your mind for a moment. It’s a beautiful name, and though you don’t know exactly what it means, you’re sure it would roll right off your tongue if you were to say it aloud.

“I’m Jimin,” he says, right on cue as he returns the pen and you not-so-discreetly pass it to Yeoreum again. “What about you?”

“Y/N.” For some reason, you’re struggling both to find something to say and maintain some kind of calm. You don’t know why he’s making your heart beat faster, only that he is.

“That’s a nice name.” Jimin smiles, and it’s breathtaking. His eyes form little crescents as he beams at you — you! — and for just one second, you can’t think of anything else. A silly crush, you chide yourself, averting your gaze from his face. A few days and it’ll leave on its own.

You want to be right, and you might be wrong, but you have no idea, no way of knowing what the future holds. It’s like they always say — only time will tell.
