home + fluff + victor 🥺
Home., n.
It hasn't been that long since they started living together, has it?
Even before then, he knew she had been slowly been integrating herself in his life- be it through meetings, through their bantering, and even navigating through the whole Evol mess.
Slowly, slowly until the next thing he knew, he's been seeing her outside work, outside meetings until eventually she started coming around his house.
This outcome would eventually come, right? It only made sense so.
And yet, seeing her so blissfully unaware- at peace while she snuggled onto his pillow still gives his heart a skip.
How is it she had became the most important thing in his life? Scoffing lightheartedly, he stoop down and gave her a featherly light kiss on her forehead.
He really became a softhearted mess when it came to her, didn't he?
Oh well.
Tumblr media
It's been a while since I last wrote for Victor huh?
I would also like to thank people who followed me for mlqc for putting up with my SVT shenanigans. I know most of you cannot understand the smaus I keep posting so I wanna thank you guys for your patience. (❁´◡`❁)

[CN] MLQC Lucien’s High Temperature ASMR translation
⚠️ SPOILER ALERT!! ⚠️
This post contains a detailed  spoiler for an ASMR that has not been released in EN yet! Feel free to  notify me if there are any mistakes in the translation~
undefined
youtube
This ASMR accompany Blooming Amidst Desire MQ (Top Up SP). Contain spoiler of the MQ.
🔞 NSFW Warning!: The content of this ASMR is VERY VIVIDLY EXPLICIT and NOT suitable for individuals under the age of 18. It is recommended that those who do not meet this age requirement refrain from proceeding beyond this point.
Transcript under the cut~
Context from kiss SP MQ: In the reference room they didn't finish doing it on the chair because his colleagues entered the room. He managed to spacefold and continue it in the garden but probably has a 'regret' about it. So you can say that this ASMR is kind of fantasy fulfilment~
(door opening sounds)
The information you are looking for might be available here
(Lucien's footsteps)
Since I'm your program consultant
I should help you find the information, no matter how difficult it is to find.
The ancient civilizations you are looking for…
I remember it being here.
I also can't understand these ancient texts.
But
Here is a dictionary compiled by research scholars.
If we compare it with what you're looking for.
We should be able to make some educated guesses.
(sounds of Lucien flipping the pages)
It's likely that this map
might be a record of the topography at that time.
As for the murals…
they are probably depicting their ritualistic ceremonies and worship as appreciation to their bountiful harvests.
However, the information here cannot be taken out of the reference room.
So we need to transcribe it.
Let's go to the desk then.
(Lucien's footsteps)
There are usually no people coming here
so it's normal for this place to have only one chair.
Since that's the case,
let us each sit on one side.
I'll try to stick to the back of the chair
And you'll sit on the front half
Mm
That's it
(chuckle) I'll refer to the dictionary for translation
While you will transcribe the valuable information.
(flipping the book sounds)
Is the air conditioner broken?
Yes,
This reference room was planned very early on.
We should inform them later
If the room temperature is too high,
the paper will age or deteriorate more quickly.
(flipping book sounds)
What's the matter?
Do you have any discoveries?
(chuckle) When considering this text in conjunction with the murals…
It is likely describing a secretive…
affair.
Interaction between the two sexes
has always been an important theme in the records of ancient civilizations.
It not only represents reproduction…
but also
love and pleasure
So the two people in the mural…
Both of them have devoted expressions.
This passage of text...
is likely describing the process or events in between.
Touching and caressing each other
Holding each other tightly in embrace
Using each other's touch
to bring pleasure to one another.
(whisper) Feeling the deepest desires within.
Does it feel very hot?
Your palm
is sweating
This handkerchief was the one you gave me
So don't mention it.
I spaced out just now
Perhaps it is because…
You look beautiful in this dress today
You've been looking at this page all along.
Are you very interested in this record?
The ongoing process
is likened to the blooming of vines.
There was once a poet…
who also described his lover in such a way.
Blooming in his embrace
Like a flower
Her skin, like silk…
possesses a touch comparable to the velvety petals.
Her foliages are plump and lush
gently soothing my empty palm
If I were to water her with my sincere soul…
She will
ultimately bloom in my embrace.
When the time comes…
The breeze will shake her pistil*
(pistil is flower’s female sexual organ, so if he compared his lover to a flower....)
And the drizzle will moisten her fragrance
(rustling noises and kisses, which place does he kiss and touch is up to your imagination :)
And she…
Will see them from my devout gaze,
see intoxication,
see faith,
see love.
I will bow beneath her flower stem,
willingly becoming a believer of desire.
I also wish
to become a believer of desire.
You know better than me,
How devout I am at this moment
Would you help
to make my wish come true?
(rustling noises + kisses + just delicious Lucien's noises)
(THE SOUND OF HIS ZIPPER GOING DOWN)
It is indeed too narrow for two people to sit on one chair.
Come sit on my lap.
Okay?
(Lucien's gasps as he slides in + beginning of the chair creaking rhythmically)
(kisses with the chair still creaking)
Sitting like this,
are you comfortable in this (position)?
(kiss)
Then let's continue.
(kisses and Lucien's delicious gasps as the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
Your cheeks are completely wet.
It is indeed too hot today.
But it's rare to see
you blooming so passionately.
(kiss+ the chair still creaking in the background)
Very beautiful.
Even if I've seen that expression on your face countless times.
I still can't help but think that…
truly beautiful.
(kiss + chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
Every part of you….
is tinged with pink.
(kisses+ the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
Here too.
(kisses + the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
So hot to the point of scorching.
(more kisses and Lucien's delicious gasps as the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
The last part…
Let me transcribe it for you.
(kisses + the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
Some knowledge you have yet to explore.
I still hope to teach them personally.
(the sound of delicious kiss + the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background)
All I wish is for you.....
to fully and freely…
bloom….
(kisses and Lucien's delicious gasps as the chair still creaking rhythmically in the background before it gradually fades)

... what does service top mean 👀 I've never heard the term before but it sounds kinky 😏 (lol sorry for the ignorance please corrupt me)
Hey Nonny!
Please don’t apologize!  If you’ll bear with me, I’ll try to corrupt you in the most scientific way possible...
Tumblr media
Reference #1: Urban Dictionary
According to the top definition, submitted by Acousticclarinet on July 29, 2018, a service top is:
“Someone who is a top in bed but likes to service the other person (mostly only doing things for the other person’s pleasure) rather than dominating them.”
Reference #2: Autostraddle.com
The article entitled, Service Tops, Bratty Bottoms and Pillow Princesses: Other Words You Use to Describe How You Have Sex, written by Riese on July 31, 2018, described a service top as:
“A top who acts according to what pleases their bottom, which pleases them.”
I hope you enjoyed this educational tidbit, dear Nonny!  Stay tuned for the pop quiz! 🤣

🍰 MLQC Boys as Bakers 🍰
Welcome to the bakery of the MLQC cafe.
We have all sorts of sweets and desserts in all sorts of types and flavours!
Which baker do you want to sweeten your day with? 🧁
Tumblr media
Victor
All desserts you can think of, he knows how to make.
Produces top quality desserts capable of obtaining Chef Hats and Michelin Stars.
Always innovating various dessert ideas from high tea to simple baked goods.
Pudding is his forte and is one of the best sellers.
The best at etching intricate patterns in the desserts (especially piping the roses and applying gold leaf without shaking hands).
Stops time before a disaster can occur in the kitchen by the other guys.
Tumblr media
Lucien
Studies the scientific processes/occurrences of dessert making.
Technical desserts is his specialty.
Pours hours of energy and effort to execute each delicate creation.
Has extensive knowledge of the different dessert ingredient substitutes wherever its needed.
Has never been seen to be eaten or taste testing any of his desserts (or rather any at all) but somehow he manages to balance the flavours every time.
Nobody knows his baking secrets- though nobody ever really has the courage to ask.
Tumblr media
Gavin
Even though he knows he's not an expert, he always wants to try his best.
Keeps desserts very simple (not because that's his skill level so far) as he knows simple desserts are the tastiest and most nostalgic.
Ginkgo-shaped cookies is his signature dessert.
Nobody knows why he just smiles the whole time he makes them.
When in dire need of loading stock on time, the wind will help cool the desserts down ASAP.
Does all the heavy lifting of the flour and delivering of the finished baked goods as an extra workout for the day.
Tumblr media
Kiro
Always makes a mess but how could you possibly get mad at him?
Sneak eats a bit of the desserts and icing whenever possible.
Claims he’s “taste testing”.
Invented unique flavours like chip-flavour desserts- surprisingly, it sells pretty well.
Experiments a lot with his desserts- recipes are non-existent in his dictionary.
Loves to go all out with lots of glitter. And lots of sprinkles- ADD IT ALL IN.
Claims he's "drawing more customers in with it".
Tumblr media
Special Menu
Shaw
You had found this particular place near his university and now you take him all the time.
"Tch," is all he says in response.
"Fine. We don't go then." You slowly walk away, hoping to trick him into revealing his true feelings.
"Hey, where are you going?" Shaw on his skateboard stops you in your tracks. "Didn't you promise me that you were going to take me?"
He ends up being the one dragging you inside instead.
He secretly smiles at your expression as you stare at the luxurious freshly-made desserts displayed.
You freeze as he takes a bite of your pudding with your spoon.
You can't tell if you're red in the face from blushing or in anger of the precious pudding being eaten right in front of your eyes.
You excuse yourself to go bathroom while Shaw purchases another pudding.
He looks out at the large French windows and smiles, wondering if he should be nice and give them all to you, or tease you more.

I’m a bit late but I don’t know why iridescent is a bad thing to put in the jackets of the new karma in CN server, can u explain it to me please??
Aloha dear anon and thank you for entrusting me with your question ^_^
We poor fans can't have a calm moment, can we? 🐦 Please don't worry, there is no such thing as "late" unless you're eating ice cream 😋
The Spoiler-free answer:
Iridescent is not a bad thing per se, however it harbors a crucial meaning for MC's relationship... with another LI!!! So using the word "Iridescent" has put many people off and caused an uproar among the fans from both guys. Many think that this is unfair to Gavin to throw in some core elements from another LI into his birthday event, an event which is dedicated to his name. Others think Papergames is using their guy's special element for another guy. Mlqc fans can get highly protective of their LIs lore and don't appreciate criss-crosses among them much.
The detailed answer with spoilers is under this line. In case you don't mind reading about the details from the main story, which you might not know of (yet)
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This conversation takes place in the main story CH13-10.
Iridescent means "... showing luminous colours that seem to change when seen from different angles." according to Oxford dictionary. This is crucial, because Lucien is color blind as a side effect of the tests Black Swan organization had done on him and the only colorful being his eyes can perceive is MC. So she is his "Iridescent".
If you would like to, you can also take a look at the episode 9 of the anime. This is where this scene happens animated and also in the anime this phenomenon is better shown imo.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are also a couple of more information about this pen's significance both for Lucien and MC's relationship as well as for the story. If you would like to know about it, then please let me know :)

Hellooooo!! Im curious to know whats your favorite mlqc chapters of all time and why lol. Also, I wonder if you ever come across a word you cant read while playing the game cus 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓈 𝓈𝑜 𝓂𝒶𝓃𝓎 𝒸𝒽𝒾𝓃𝑒𝓈𝑒 𝒸𝒽𝒶𝓇𝒶𝒸𝓉𝑒𝓇𝓈 𝑜𝓊𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 XD
Hello! Interesting questions there. 
1. What’s your favourite MLQC chapter of all time and why?
Most definitely Season 1 Chapter 37.
Why: 
It’s laden with angst, which is perfect for me. If you want to read some of it, I’ve translated Xu Mo’s route in full here: https://thescentoflavender.tumblr.com/post/632963265938489344/parting-also-has-its-own-meaning-does-it. 
I like the CGs for that chapter the most! I have a thing for smoky light effects and drifting feathers and teary farewells. Like I said, apocalypses suit the angst-lover in me very well (only when it’s in fiction I’m reading, though. Apocalypses in real life = ❌❌❌).
The writing is on point. The setting is well laid out, without falling into the trap of purple prose. I also like how they show the characters’ feelings through their actions and the setting, rather than resorting to detailed descriptions, which I sometimes see in the other chapters. However, this is not to say that the writing for the other chapters is not good -- I must emphasise that this is simply personal preference. I’ve always favoured more 朴实 (“simple”) styles of writing (think 《背影》by 朱自清 or 《有月亮的晚上》by 席慕容)rather than the 花哨 (“colourful/bombastic”) sort, but I can see how the latter would be appealing. 
The plot is easy to follow and doesn’t go into convoluted scientific theories, which in my opinion have weighed down some of the earlier chapters in both S1 and S2.
2. Have you ever come across a word you can’t read while playing MLQC? 
Yes, for Ling Xiao’s Qixi introduction last year (translated text here: https://thescentoflavender.tumblr.com/post/627169716525531136/mlqc-cn-2020-qixi-date-previews). There were some characters which I hadn’t seen before, so I had to look up a dictionary for those. 
Other times, I might know what the character means even though I might not read it correctly. But I won’t know until I try to type out the character and it doesn’t pop up in the suggestions. As an example of what I mean, let’s look at one of the words which appeared in ZQL’s text last year: 昳。Normally, I would pronounce it as dié, but when it’s in the word “昳丽” it’s actually pronounced yì. So I know what the word “昳丽” means (“pretty”) but I wouldn’t have known its correct pronunciation until looking it up, probably because no one really uses this word in real life conversations anyway...

Dip a Toe (Victor x MC)
This is my entry for July 6th Summer of Smut Challenge. Tagging the awesome @voltage-vixen. Hope you all enjoy
Dip a Toe (Victor x MC)
MLQC 
Summer of Smut Challenge- July 6th: Skinny Dipping at Night
Warnings: Semipublic nudity, sex, public sex
“Strawberry daiquiri, please. Blended.”
You ordered your drink, ignoring the man whose presence you felt behind you. The cool dimness of the hotel bar was a welcome respite to your hot face, and sweaty body, and you silently thanked whomever it was who invented AC. Handing her your card for the fruity drink, you heard the scoff of Victor behind you. Well, he could scoff all he wanted. You didn’t need his help to do anything. The bartender gave you a sympathetic look, and asked loud enough for Victor to hear if you were ok before cutting her eyes in his direction. Her warning was clear; upset her customers and she would move in. If judging by the bulge of her biceps, it wouldn’t be the first time. You shot a reassuring smile her way, accompanied with an eye roll in Victor’s direction, and taking your card back, made sure to leave a sizable tip before strolling over to the outside terrace. Even while angry, you had to admit Victor had impeccable taste in resorts. It was your first official trip as a couple, and though you had only been official for 3 months, the sheer amount of time you seemed to spend together made it feel like years. He had managed to take in account all your preferences when selecting the surprise 2 week trip as a reward for your 5 star rating on the latest venture. Though he didn’t treat you any differently as his investment, he always made sure to reward you for all the hard work as his girlfriend. You inhaled the fragrant scent of the jasmine that grew from the various planters. Taking a sip of your drink, you shuddered a little at its strength. The bartender must have felt you needed a little more boast to deal with Victor, the sweet thing. 
“You’re being ridiculous, you know.” Victor’s deep voice cut through your peaceful daydreaming, and you turned around to glare at him. He looked so casually handsome in the setting sun. His light blue linen shirt gave a wonderful contrast to the honey tan of his skin. He hadn’t been using any hair products since the trip, and the stylish cut of his bangs hung into his face. They seemed to emphasize the intensity of his dark eyes, and you swallowed hard. 
“Easy, girl. You’re mad. Don’t give in. Don’t. Give. In.”
Adopting a look of feigned indifference, you eyed him as you sipped your drink. 
“And what, pray tell Mr. Li, is ridiculous? The fact that you find me boring, or the fact that I got upset about it?”
You downed your drink fighting back a grimace, and left the empty glass on the table. Turning around, you strolled towards the hidden opening that led to the path towards the resort’s private beach, enjoying the crashing sound of the waves. Earlier in the week, you and Victor had discovered a hidden little secret spot on the resort’s private beach. You noticed that many of the resort visitors didn’t seem to frolic there, and the two of you had gone to it each night to watch the sunset. You would have missed it by the time you got there, but you were angry and didn’t want to go back to the room with him. Besides, you enjoyed the multitude of stars that were visible over the water. You could hear his footsteps following you down the path, but for once he was quiet. You rolled your eyes at the doubt that started creeping up in your chest. Maybe you were overreacting. You squared your shoulders as you walked. No! He would have to apologize for his poor choice of words. You made it down the path, and the beach was blessedly empty. You found your favorite spot; a sun warmed rock that seemed to have mysteriously found itself just off the side of the beach. You slipped your sandals off, burying your toes in the sand. It was still hot, and you wiggled your toes deeper, a sense of peace stealing over. Oh how you loved the beach. Almost skipping over to the rock, you had missed the glow of adoration in Victor’s smile. Even in the moonlight it was so easy for him to read the delight in your motions. He briefly wondered if he should buy the resort if for no other reason than to get to see you smile.
You plopped down on the rock, and kept your toes in the sand. There was a breeze coming off the ocean, and the salty smell of it tickled your nose. Victor sat next to you, making sure to leave a bit of space. You continued to ignore him. Tracing patterns in the sand with your toes, you heard him sigh.
“ I didn’t call you boring you know.” You didn't look in his direction. 
“Oh?”
“Dummy, I said, predictable. I’m not sure what idiotic dictionary you’ve been using, but those words are not the same in mine.”
You whirled towards him, the strap of your tank top falling down a little over your shoulder.
“They might as well mean the same thing Victor! When you say you don’t have to ask me about things because you already know my response, well it makes me feel boring… even if that’s not what you mean. I can be exciting too, you know!.”  You huffed at his amused expression and turned back around crossing your arms. He reached out to pull up your strap and you jerked away slapping his hand.
“Ouch! Dummy, I’m just trying to fix your top. You’re not wearing a bra. Are you trying to put on a show?”
Sudden inspiration struck you. Maybe it was the drink that left a pleasant fuzzy sensation in your head. Maybe it was that amused look on Victor’s face, or his refusal to admit that telling you that you were predictable wasn’t a nice compliment. Either way, you jumped up from the rock, and sauntered over to Victor, out of reach, but in his full view. 
“Maybe I want it to fall down. After all, I am about to undress.” You spun away so your outline was partially obscured by the shadows stretching out on the beach, the moonlight lending a glow that made you feel like a goddess as you slowly unbuttoned your shorts. Shimmying out of them as sensually as you could, (a feat that came with challenges given they way they stuck to your sweat covered thighs), you took a second to fold them before you languidly let your fingers drift down to your tank’s hem. Victor let out a growl, and you turned to face him, an eyebrow drifting up in question.
“And just what in the hell do you think you are doing?” he bit out.
“Why Mr. Li, you mean you can’t predict my next move?” Not waiting for a response, you pulled your tank off, breasts bare to his stare. Fighting the self conscious urge to cover yourself, you hooked your fingers in your underwear, pulling them down in one swift motion. Victor choked as he stared at your body. The struggle between disapproval, and arousal fighting for dominance on his face. 
“Dummy… I’m warning you…”
Instead of responding, you stretched, moaning sensually as you could feel the muscles in your back stretch and pop.
“Warn me all you want. I’m going for a dip.”
“You’re not that strong of a swimmer,” he snapped at you, disapproval winning in the end.You shrugged in response. “Well then I guess you better join me, huh? Unless it’s too boring for someone as sophisticated as yourself, Mr. Li.”
You turned and walked away from him, not bothering to wait for a response. Still, your heart pounded hard in your chest. What if he didn’t join you? “Nonsense” you told yourself. And well if he didn’t, you weren't going to dwell on it. You reached the water, and waded out. It had been a sweltering day, and the water was like a tepid bath. You giggled as the waves pushed you back towards the shore. Your feet feeling the sea shells embedded in the sand. You tucked your knees in your chest, riding a wave back to shore before you raced out again to find another one. Laughing loudly, you let the waves wash over you again. Forgetting for a moment you were mad, you shot a toothy grin Victor’s way. It left your face quickly, however. He was no longer on the rock. You turned back into the water with a sigh. The waves not as fun alone anymore. Maybe you had taken it too far? 
You heard his chuckle behind you, and before you could turn around, he pulled you against the hard planes of his chest. 
“Quit pouting. As if I would let you stay out here alone.”
You struggled against him for a moment, but he just pulled you closer.
“Stop wiggling so much. Your little fist is near a sensitive area, you know.” Frowning, you finally registered that you hadn’t felt his linen shirt. Reaching a questing hand back, Victor groaned a little as your hand brushed against his rising erection. 
“You’re naked,” you said without stopping the movement of your hand. If anything, you sped it up a little. Victor’s hands drifted from around your body to your shoulders. He leaned down to drop a scatter of kisses on the back of your neck.
“Well I wasn’t about to ruin my clothing.” You hummed a noncommittal response, and stopped your hand, darting off in the waves. “Wrong answer!” you shouted at him laughing at his dumbfounded expression. You didn’t get very far before his hands grabbed you around your waist. Victor lifting you with ease, and twirling you around, before looping an arm under your legs, bridal style. You clung to his neck as he dunked you in the water and pulled you back up.
“Victor, you jerk!” you shrieked at him. Your hair was plastered to your face, and you sputtered out the salt water that had filled your open mouth. Instead of apologizing, he threw his head back, a carefree laugh erupting from him that tugged at your heart. Always composed and in control, it took your breath away whenever you got the chance to see him openly laugh. And everytime he did, you felt yourself slip a little bit more in love with him. Setting you on your feet, he pushed your hair out of your face, smiling at you before leaning in for a kiss. You let your eyes drift shut, and raised your face up in anticipation. Victor let out another chuckle before brushing his lips against yours so lightly, you almost didn’t feel it. 
“I… I really am sorry for hurting you. I don’t think you’re boring. You’re too much of an absent minded fool to ever be boring.”
Your eyes shot open, but before you could fuss at him for his backhanded compliment, his smiling lips reclaimed yours once more. He deepened the kiss, and the taste of the ocean filled both of your mouths. You twined your fingers into his hair as his tongue tangled with yours. Victor slid his hands along your hips, pulling you in closer. You could feel his erection against your body, and you dropped a hand to grip it. You worked your hand up and down his erection, and Victor’s breathy moans were lost against your lips.
“You’re not going to stop again, are you?” he asked almost desperately.
“The only reason I’m going to stop is because I’d rather have you buried in me,” you responded back, nipping at his lower lip. Victor groaned at your words pulling you back in for a passionate kiss.  His thumbs gently stroked along you before he moved one of his hands between your legs. Cupping you gently he delved two of his fingers inside you, scissoring them back and forth for a moment. You let out a groan of your own as his skilled fingers work their magic on you taking you closer to the edge. His palm ground against your clit and your stomach flipped as your arousal rushed to coat his fingers. Victor ducked his head down to lick a path between your breasts, and latched onto a nipple, flicking his tongue against it. You let out a whine, and tried to ride his fingers for more stimulation.
“Victor, I’m ready. Please, just, just give me what I need.” Victor shuffled you back a bit, the water swirling around your ankles before he dropped to his knees and pulled you down with him. You laid out on the sand, the waves tickling your bodies as he placed himself between your legs. Rocking back on his knees, he grabbed your legs, draping them over his thighs. Watching intently, he eased himself in, inch by painstakingly inch until he was as deep as he could go.
“I love watching how well you take me.” He moved his hips forward in a hard stroke, groaning your name out as he did. He pumped forward again, and soon he set a pace that had you writhing against the sand. His hands dropped on either side of your head, and you flicked your tongue against the pulse at his wrist, raising your hips to meet the force of his thrusts. Victor let out a curse, and sped up. He angled his hips in just the right direction to hit that spot that made you almost see stars. It felt so,so good. You reached your hands up and clasped them around Victor’s neck to drag him down for a kiss. You crossed your ankles around him to take him in deeper, the pleasure mounting in your core. You broke the kiss to throw your head back at the jolts of pleasure that began shooting over your body. 
“Victor, I’m about to cum, oh I’m about to cum. Don’t stop, please. Oh, please”
“I’m close too,” he ground out as he picked up his pace. “Cum for me, love. Take your pleasure from me.”
You bit into Victor’s shoulder as you fell apart, your screams of pleasure muffled against his flesh. He gave a few more hard pumps before he pulled himself out and spilled across your stomach. After a few more kisses and catching your breaths, you rinsed off in the waves. You shivered as you made your way back to your rock. The temperature had dropped, and you were feeling it. You and Victor quickly dressed, and he held your hand as you made you way back up the path, swinging your hands back and forth.
“So…. Am I forgiven?,” he asked glancing in your direction. You pretended to ponder a bit, and even tapped your chin earning an amused snort from Victor.
“I’d say you’re well on your way. But don’t most apologies need someone on their knees?”
Victor stopped walking, and pulled you into his arms. “Oh I’ll have you on your knees alright, and on your back, on my lap, and maybe even on all fours”, he whispered against your ear.
“Victor! That’s not what I meant!” you giggled slapping his chest before you two resumed walking.
“But I have to say, if this is the way you apologize, I hope you mess up a lot more in the future.”

MLQC Dictionary Prompts: 'ephemeral' + comfort + kiro (I hope this is how it works aaaa, I love your writing!)
e·phem·er·al. adj.
(from the ancient Greek, ephēmeros. lasting only a day.)
he’s sprawled silly across her lap, the two of them about to fall from the couch from their fit of laughter when he realizes: he will never see this smile of hers again.
not this one. not this exact one, her head tipped back, eyes crinkled crescent moon shut, hair springing joyful and free from her slept-in bun, her thighs warm under his head and barely covered by the old hoodie of his she’s taken to wearing around the house as hers.
this is a moment that will fade, he realizes. soon, he won’t remember why they were laughing in the first place, won’t remember the particulars of the way the light through the window kissed her dimples, caught the edges of her dark hair, and spun it into gold.
much as he’ll try to capture it again in memory, in song, he’ll never have this again. not this smile.
not this laugh either. not the look in her eyes when her laughter’s finally subsided, and she brings her gaze back down to meet his. the love, the tenderness, the emotion he tries to best to capture in lyrics, the feeling that goes beyond words— the weight of it knocks the breath from his lungs even as she catches hers.
he’d heard once— in a science podcast that minutes later savin had demanded turned off— that the world our minds experience is already past, the present lost in the time it takes a feeling to travel from eyes, from nose, from lips, from ears and hands to brain,
and he wonders, briefly, bitterly, if this is what it means to love: to always lose. to be stuck in a moment past, forever chasing the footsteps of the present, no thought spared for the future. knowing it’ll still all slip like sand through his fingers in the end.
he wonders if this is why he’ll look out across a stadium of fans and always see cameras and not faces upturned in his direction, phones swaying to the melody, their flashlights poor substitute for starstruck, loving eyes. wonders if the crotchety old critics who scoff and say things like “put down your phone, live in the moment!” are the ones who’ve had it right all along.
how can you live in the moment, he wants to ask them, knowing it’s going to end?
how can you fault someone in love for wanting a moment to last forever? for wanting remembrance less faulty than memory, something physical, something to hold?
but, what makes moments like these special? what makes us want to hold onto them more than the rest? is there some unspeakable beauty known only through living it, breathing it, trying forever to live it again, in spite of how transient, in spite of how fleeting? or perhaps is it beautiful because of its temporary nature?
he could command the first. try and search for that je ne sais quoi in a memory brought to life again, unnatural, forced. love not given warm, given freely but demanded, cold and heartless. the thought makes bile rise in the back of his throat.
he decides it must be the second, or something approximating it.
because when he thinks about it, maybe love is not meant to be lived clinging onto past moments, onto the glitter and glamour of a first meeting made sparkling, made magic by the tragedy of it all, the thought prickling in the back of both your minds that no matter how enchanting this conversation is (this connection, this world created of just the two of you), it, like all beautiful things, like all moments, is meant to end.
love is not built on frozen snapshots from the past, on connections made once, remade into a reality larger than life by folding and unfolding a memory’s polaroid until your mind gilds over the worn edges and creates an idea of a person, an expectation that living, breathing humans, perfect in their imperfections, could never hope to become.
love is a choice, he thinks. (he concludes. he chooses.) love is knowing that a single moment may be a tragedy from the start, in how transient, in how fleeting. love is knowing that one day, this will inevitably end. (their time together. this happiness. their concert, this song they share.) knowing, and choosing the present moment and the moments to come anyways, despite the endings to come, despite how futile it all may seem because what’s one moment, perfectly preserved, against a lifetime more, no matter how messy the memory ends up, no matter how blurry and flawed?
he will never see this smile of hers again, he thinks. not this one.
not this exact one, not her with her head tipped back, eyes not quite shut, hair falling free and playful from her messy bun, her thighs soft under his head, half-covered by her old hoodie, the one he thinks was once his, the hoodie she’s taken to wearing around the house as hers,
but what’s one smile against a lifetime’s worth?
.
.
.
(love is a promise. love means maybe you won’t get to keep every memory perfectly, but instead, you’ll share many more to come.)
------------------
i liked the look of the definition first and didn’t wanna disrupt the flow of the ficlet aaaah but BASIA <333 thank you so much for this ask you’re the loveliest and ephemeral is just?? such a beautiful word that i think about far too much thank you for giving me the chance to explore it and muse about it through kiro’s eyes <33 hope you enjoyed !! ^^ ps love your writing toooo
(and special thanks to @aliaisreal again for masterminding the whole prompt meme it’s absolutely my favorite thing right now anyone and everyone pls feel free to send a word + genre/character my way <33)

MLQC CN Lucien (Xu Mo) Recollection Date Part 3 & 4
SPOILER ALERT!!
It's Xu Mo Birthday Date which has released on CN server. I'm doing translation for personal reason, so I'm sorry if there's some mistranslation. Kindly tell me if you found some :) feel free for read it~ ^^
PART 3
Read previous part here
(There will be 4 options for this story)
1st Option
MC: What about after opening the door?
Xu Mo: There is an ordinary entrance, where do you want to go?
MC: I want to go left.
Xu Mo: On the left is the kitchen. The kitchen is a bit small, but the kitchen utensils in it are very complete, and always shiny, because it is not used much.
MC: Does the owner know how to cook?
Xu Mo: It can only be said that people are good at different things.
His voice is smiling faintly, as if thinking of some special scene
Xu Mo: "Obviously, pour it into the pot perfectly according to the content of the recipe. Why does it taste so strange?"
Xu Mo: She always said that.
Xu Mo: But she is always busy, so she doesn't have much time to do research in this area.
MC: In fact, those dishes are delicious, right?
Xu Mo was silent for a long time, as if he really wanted to extract the smell from his memory.
Xu Mo: Well, it's delicious.
There seemed to be a young woman standing in front of the stove in front of her. She was swaying in distress between the pot and the recipe in her hand.
She tied up her hair and wore simple home clothes. She didn't look like a "professor" in his population at all. She was full of family atmosphere.
A little boy was secretly hiding outside the kitchen door, looking at her expectantly.
We returned to the hallway again.
2nd Option
Xu Mo: There is an ordinary entrance, where do you want to go?
MC: I want to go right.
Xu Mo: On the right is the living room. Although it is the living room, there are actually bookshelves everywhere.
MC: Is there no study room?
Xu Mo: In fact, because the study can't fit those books, the living room is filled up a little bit.
Xu Mo: In the center is a very soft sofa, where sunlight will shine through the floor-to-ceiling windows in autumn.
Xu Mo: There is a set of very expensive speakers on the opposite side of the sofa, which was specially bought by the little boy's father to listen to some classical music.
MC: On the sofa, while reading a book and listening to music, it must be very comfortable.
Xu Mo: In fact, the most comfortable place is the rocking chair by the French windows.
I felt a familiar body temperature on my left side. Xu Mo seemed to adjust his sitting posture and leaned against my left.
Xu Mo: For the little boy in this house, the rocking chair at that time was just the right size for him. When he was tired from reading, he could turn over and sleep with a book.
Xu Mo: When the weather is good, the rocking chair will be gently blown by the wind and shake slowly.
I seemed to be standing in the living room wrapped in bookshelves and walked to the floor window.
There was a little child, tightly holding the book in his hand, curled up in a slightly shaking rocking chair, sleeping in the brilliant autumn light in.
Maybe he is having an ordinary dream, just like his calm daily life, gentle and precious.
We returned to the hallway again.
3rd Option
Xu Mo: There is an ordinary entrance, where do you want to go?
MC: I want to move forward
Xu Mo: In front is a restaurant. It's bigger than the kitchen, but the decoration is also very simple.
Xu Mo: There are no drinkers at home, so the entire restaurant has only a small dining table and three chairs
MC: Do... the little boy and his parents eat here every day?
Xu Mo: They have no such agreement.
Xu Mo: But they tried their best to share dinner with the little boy every day.
Xu Mo: After returning from a business trip, the little boy's father and mother will definitely make a sumptuous dinner.
The men and women at the dining table seemed to be busy. They even had time to change out their coats, so they rolled up their sleeves and took care of the vegetables and fish they bought.
Man: ....This fish is too energetic.
The fish in the man's hand was full of the will to survive. The little boy sat at the dining table obediently, pretending to read the book, but in fact he didn't read a word.
The floating legs swayed briskly, and he didn't even understand what this mood was.
I just feel light and fluttering, as if lying in the clouds.
We returned to the hallway again.
4th Option
Xu Mo: There is an ordinary entrance, where do you want to go?
MC: I want to go upstairs and have a look.
Xu Mo:There will be a staircase when you go through the living room, and the wooden board will creak slightly when you step on it. When you walk upstairs, there is a small living room.
MC: Isn't it also full of bookshelves?
Xu Mo smiled, and a soft laughter flicked his ears, a little helpless.
Xu Mo: Unfortunately, you guessed it right.
Xu Mo: Maybe I remembered it wrong. This is not a place to live, it should be a bookstore.
Xu Mo: However, the parents of the little boy should distinguish between functions. After all, it is a little closer to the study.
Xu Mo: If you are tired of reading books in the study, you can just walk out and continue reading in this small living room.
MC: So tired of watching it in the small living room?
Xu Mo: Go down to the large living room and have a look.
I was amused by his pretending jokes.
The whole house seems to be filled with books and ink fragrances in every corner, accompany the people in the house to explore the end of the world.
MC: What's on the second floor?
Xu Mo: To the left of the small living room is a long corridor, the first is a large bedroom, and there is a room on the left and right at the end.
Xu Mo: On the right is the study room, which contains more materials, and the books placed are all highly professional books.
Xu Mo: At that time, the little boy couldn't even understand the words on it. Every time he looked at a page, he had to put a large English-Chinese dictionary and an English-English dictionary.
MC: You must understand it now.
I said with emotion. Xu Mo on the side hesitated. He seemed to be recalling something again, and slowly opened his mouth.
Xu Mo: I should have understood it when I was around sixteen or seventeen.
MC: ....
MC: Let's leave this room that doesn't belong to me
The low laughter leaned at my side, making me almost want to open my eyes and tell him to respect the gap between people.
But when I thought that the last room was left, I finally took a deep breath and decided to ignore the constant laughter.
MC: What about the room on the left?
Xu Mo: That is the little boy's room.
Following Xu Mo's words, he steadily opened the last door.
MC: Is there a lot of books in this room?
Xu Mo: No.
Xu Mo: There is no book in the little boy's room. His parents don't want him to read books all the time, so they don't let him bring the books into the bedroom.
MC: Really don't have a copy?
Xu Mo: In fact, there are two books under the pillow.
When Xu Mo said so, I couldn't help laughing.
Xu Mo: This is a very ordinary small bedroom with a bed, wardrobe and small desk...
MC: Wait a minute, there are no books, what is the little boy doing at the desk?
Xu Mo: Play puzzle games.
MC: Huh?
Xu Mo: Such as Kong Ming chess, chess, element matching card game.
MC: It doesn’t sound like a puzzle game for children...
I couldn't help but spit out a bit, and got a deep laugh from Mr. Xu again.
MC: But it does seem to be an ordinary child's room.
Xu Mo: Because the special place lies elsewhere.
This time Xu Mo held my hand and stood up.
Xu Mo: Don't open your eyes.
While Xu Mo said this, he pulled me forward and walked up.
Xu Mo: There is a balcony in the little boy's house.
The brilliant autumn sun shines through my eyelids and hits my retina, shining slightly in the closed world.
I felt as if I was really under the traction of Xu Mo, closing my eyes and slowly walking across the bedroom to the balcony.
Xu Mo stopped and leaned behind me.
Xu Mo: MC, open your eyes to clear up.
Tumblr media
The gentle autumn breeze rolled up the golden osmanthus in the sky.
At that moment, Xu Mo and I seemed to be standing on the balcony of the old house, and the fluttering colorful flags were flying happily in the wind.
The mountains and flowers in front of you, white clouds blowing in the wind.
Xu Mo: The balcony of the boy’s room is the best place to see the scenery around here.
Xu Mo: There will be fireflies in the mountains on spring nights, like the secrets of the mountain.
Xu Mo: The streets are always lively in summer. The elderly will play chess on the side of the road and the children will play football on the side of the road, and they will also run to the observation deck on the mountain to sneak off the fireworks.
Xu Mo: In autumn, when it rains, the sound of rain hitting the woods is very comfortable, and the whole world is wetted by the splashing rain and foggy.
Xu Mo: It rarely snows in winter, but small snowflakes will fall. He often imagined the whole mountain covered by heavy snow.
Xu Mo: The little boy's father told him that the world is huge and there are many secrets in the world.
Xu Mo: You will meet them and like them.
I stood in the middle of the open space, looking into the mountains.
The mountains in front of him were nothing but empty silence, and the golden osmanthus swayed silently in the wind.
PART 4
When we arrived at the viewing platform on the mountain, dusk had come quietly.
Xu Mo: Sorry, you kept me fooling around today.
MC: I will be happier if you can do a lot of fooling around like today.
Xu Mo smiled lightly, took my hand and sat on the long seat in the small pavilion.
The street lights on the road down the mountain have slowly begun to be turned on, looking down like a small candlelight in my eyes.
The same small handmade cake was finally placed on the stone slab after a whole day of rushing.
Looking at this cake, I thought of the old house in Xu Mo's memory and the little boy who was lying on the balcony and looking into the distance.
MC: Xu Mo, how did you feel about yourself when you were a kid?
Xu Mo: Why did you ask so?
MC: Just suddenly curious.
Xu Mo was silent for a moment. I didn't look up at him. I was still decorating the little cake in my hand.
Xu Mo: So what did you think about herself when she was a child?
I raised my head and touched my mouth, looking at the blurry lights in the distant city.
MC: I miss her very much.
MC: She was clumsy and reckless, she could do things that seemed great at the time by herself
MC: Looking at the words she had left behind, I was always embarrassed and unable to read, and laughed at her in my heart.
MC: But she is so sincere and brave.
MC: She is the person I cannot become now, and I am very grateful to her.
MC: I just don’t know if I am the kind of person she imagined. If so, that’s fine.
Xu Mo: Will do.
Xu Mo: You must be the kind of person she wants to be.
Xu Mo put his hand on his lap casually, and looked at the dim light with me.
Xu Mo: If I see myself when I was a child, I actually don't know what kind of mood I should be.
Xu Mo: There were so many things he didn't understand at that time, so much that he thought everything would have a specific answer.
Xu Mo: Including happiness, sadness.... (包括开心、难过、悲伤)
>>I put the original word in CN if there's some mistranslation
Xu Mo: And love.
Xu Mo's voice is calm. It is not so much talking about himself at that moment, as he seems to have pulled himself away and simply evaluates an individual.
Xu Mo: He is far away.
MC: You are too harsh on him.
Xu Mo: Huh?
MC: "People are good at different things."
MC: Just like some people cannot understand science, only his weaknesses are placed in a more special place.
MC: He may just be slower, more time-consuming, and deeper to understand those things.
MC: And it's just that kind of him that gradually became Xu Mo in front of me.
I lit the candle and Xu Mo's face was extremely soft against the candlelight.
MC: Happy birthday, Xu Mo.
MC: Xu Mo has been working hard this year! If you were too far away when you were a child, just look at yourself this year.
Xu Mo looked a little surprised when he heard me say this, and looked at me with interest.
Xu Mo: why do you say so?
MC: I think "birthday" always divides people into different stages.
I have a new toy at the age of 7, want to fall in love at the age of 15, take a good college entrance examination at the age of 18, find a good job at the age of 22, and have my own house at the age of 30...
"Birthday" seems to be an invisible reminder. People will look back at one-year-old self on this day, and then they will enter a new stage.
MC: From the time when Xu Mo was young, every year old Xu Mo was connected together to become the current Xu Mo.
MC: This year's Xu Mo, with his academic report, put a perfect end to this year-old self.
MC: He is still full of curiosity about the world and is still on the road of discovering the truth.
MC: He is still a little bit nasty, and always sees me showing off and teasing me...
MC: But such Xu Mo is very good.
MC: I hope you in the future can do what you want to do and become the person you want to be.
MC: You don't have to be happy all the time, but I hope you will be the first to think of me when you are unhappy.
MC: Let me be with you.
There are tiny petals of golden osmanthus in the wind, like foam from waves, reflecting in the candlelight, like burning.
Xu Mo's eyes were bright, filling the night sky of autumn leaves.
Xu Mo: Alright.
He didn't say thank you like he did in the past, but solemnly and sincerely left an agreement, even an oath.
Xu Mo: I think about my wish for this year.
Under the small candlelight, Xu Mo poked his head, slowly picked up his hand, wrapped his left fist with his right palm, and looked straight at it.
After a long time, he raised his head.
MC: Seems to have a lot of wishes this year?
Xu Mo: I'm not just making a wish.
Xu Mo: I still have something to say to them.
Xu Mo looked at me. He didn't explain who "they" were, just as he didn't explain the owner of the house.
He knew I would know.
In this regard, Xu Mo is actually very clumsy. And it is this clumsiness that makes him so real and complete.
MC: By the way, this is this year's birthday present.
I took out a souvenir book from my bag, a long-restored out-of-print book, and a small 6x10 wooden board. Each grid was covered with stickers of different sizes.
Xu Mo: It turns out that you have hidden so many things in your backpack.
MC: Haha...
MC:This is our commemorative album this year, this year also very thick.
Xu Mo slowly turned over the thick album. In Yuelao Temple, Xu Mo's home, summer camp in the orphanage, in class, amusement park, farm, oil painting studio...
Before we knew it, we had so many brand new memories.
MC: This is the previous out-of-print book. Although my craftsmanship is not very good, I did my best!
Xu Mo: It's hard work, MC
MC: And this "Unhappy Blind Box Project".
I solemnly took out the small wooden board and began to introduce it to Xu Mo.
MC: There are a total of 60 grids in it. When you are unhappy, just pick one to open.
MC: There may be props, a sentence, or a picture, and then please call MC to complete it with you.
Xu Mo: 365 days a year, only 60 grids?
MC: Mr. Xu, 60 unhappy times have been a lot, I hope you don’t open it once!
I stared at him a little madly, but found his smiling eyes.
MC: You teased me again!
Xu Mo: MC, Thank you.
The sky gradually darkened, and the lights of the city's thousands of houses slowly lit up under the mountain, like a touch of gentle blessing.
Perhaps for anyone, the world was a monochromatic at the beginning.
With time and encounter, it gradually became stained with colors, giving different people and things their own value.
Slowly, the whole world becomes colorful, it interacts with memory, and has smells and sounds.
Until the most special existence appeared, the color of this world was more distinctive.
It's as if the whole picture has been retouched, so that everything has a new meaning.
While we quietly shared the cake, I looked at Xu Mo's face lit by the warm lights.
MC: Xu Mo, you are now in color.
Xu Mo was stunned, then smiled meaningfully.
He ate the last piece of cake and finally sat next to me. He seldom carried a light and sweet fragrance on his body, and even the breath that came near was sweet.
Xu Mo: MC, to me, you are more than color.
~END~
Thank you for reading, kindly let me now if there's any mistranslation ><

Hi! Hope you having great day/evening. Sorry for bothering you. Firstly, I want to say that I really like your small stories with mlqc guys, especially Shaw. Secondly, I don't know if you taking request to write right now, so again, sorry for bothering, but maybe you could write Shaw + Thantophobia (phobia of losing someone you love) + comfort?
Thantophobia., n.
What are you so afraid of? There had been a time where she had asked that question with such confidence that even he had been taken aback.
The memory had been faint, as if it had been lifetimes since he last recalled such that he might think that he had just imagined the entire conversation but how could he forget her eyes twinkling in mirth, her face filled with determination as she prompted him to answer her question?
What was his answer back then? Did he deflect like usual? Or did he answer her sarcastically like he always did? Whatever his answer was, he knew it left her unsatisfied, protests leaving her lips as he redirected her attention to something else to which he had successfully had done so.
And yet, despite distracting her to the extent of her forgetting the question, the way she had asked him never truly made him forget.
What are you so afraid of?
There's a word for it, that he is sure of. There has to be. Because how else would he describe this feeling he had been harboring every time he saw her?
This feeling where he's not allowed to make any mistakes- not even one or else it might hurt her.
This feeling where he found himself tuning his professors off because of stray thoughts about her, much akin to perhaps… worry?
What are you so afraid of?
It had been too long since he last heard that question and yet it haunted him, following him whichever timeline he found himself to be.
After all, no matter where and when he found himself in, his answer had always remained the same.
I'm afraid of losing you, so please… come back to me, okay?
Tumblr media
Hey there! Thank you so much for hitting up that ask button! Can't imagine how much courage you've drawn just by checking up with me and for that I want to say how much I appreciate it.
Haven't gotten asks lately cause I've taken a mini hiatus these past few months cause I was going through my review season for board exams which explains the lack of content and reblogs in my writeblr but I'm back now...

MLQC headcanons because why not
So, I decided to write a little something with the boys from mlqc because "why not?". No one requested this. I'm not actually a writer (not even for hobby) and probably there will you be a lot of typos because english is not my first language, but oh well... Here we go!
*Let me know if you found any errors, so I can fix it! (Why not let this be an opportunity to learn?) Thanks!
MLQC boys + Netflix and chill
Victor
Victor is not much one of subterfuges, we all know and love (most of the time) the fact that he's a very straightforward man.
"Netflix and chill? Oh well, you either wanna pick something to watch or you want to partake in sexual intercourse. Which one is it?"
Come on, Victor, just say "fuck" like everybody else (tbh, he actually say "fuck" sometimes and it's just as sexy as you're picturing).
Now, what happens next depends on your mood, if you know what I mean. Either the new The Witcher series on Netflix or high quality sex on the living room's couch.
If you're too indecisive, Victor will always pull you close kinda roughly and kiss you like the thirsty man he is (for you). Tbh, he does love you more than anything, so he can't help but want to make love to you (yes, Victor is a "make love" type of guy).
Obviously, consent is everything and Victor will always respect you in every possible way.
Victor will never miss an opportunity to love you, because he loves your everything: your mind, your heart, your imperfect normal human being body and what he likes to call "your beautiful, gentle soul". So he'll grab any chance to love you with his own mind, heart, body and soul.
Deep down (under the tsundere bullshit that sometimes comes to light) that's what love is for Victor: you are his everything, so he will love you with everything he has.
Gavin
When you invited Gavin for Netflix and chill at your house, boy came prepared with pizza and snacks.
Tbh, Gavin has so much work to do and so many dangerous work trips to go (in which he ends up being incommunicable) that is hard to catch up with the new expressions that are trending among the youngsters.
He doesn't understand very well why did you dressed up so sexily to watch a movie in your own house, but he's very much far from complaining about it.
You're having to much fun with the situation to get upset. But too bad he won't get to see the new lingerie you got especially for the occasion.
After a couple of bad comedies, boy goes home like the perfect gentleman he is, with just a tender goodbye kiss. But oh well, turns out you decided to get some tonight.
Halfway home, bird cop gets a text from you with a print of urban dictionary's definition of "Netflix and chill".
Lightspeed back to you house.
Right after you felt a gush of wind hitting your skin, you felt his arms wrapping around you very tenderly.
"Why didn't you just told me?" He laughed while hugging you and carrying you towards the bedroom.
Turns out he did got to see your new lingerie ;)
Lucien
Well, professor Lucien is always busy with some damn activity of the damn university. Even tho he always managed to make time for you, you feel bad that you're keeping him from resting in his rare free time.
So this time you decided to plan a very relaxing evening for him. You cooked both your favorite foods while thinking what you would do as soon as he got home.
When he does, he's pleasantly surprised with the wonderful smell coming from the kitchen: "Are we celebrating something?", he asked, hugging you from behind.
"Not really, I was just trying to plan a relaxing evening for both of us", you say, turning off the stove and turning towards him.
You put your arms loosely around his neck as he comes closer to you, pressing his forehead against yours.
"And what have you planned, love?", he asked, putting his hands under your shirt and tracing the curves of your waist.
"Well", you answered, pulling him by the tie towards the bathroom, "let's start with a good bath, shall we?"
*Where did the "Netflix and chill" go in this one? I don't know either (legends say one is still looking for it)
Kiro
Of course hacker boy knows what Netflix and chill is. Kiro feels very much at home in the internet and is very familiarized with it's language.
Although you tend to believe Kiro is a flower boy, with a heart of cotton candy and a mind more pure than the snow on top of the Everest, baby has a dark side he needs to constantly keep in control.
When you text him asking if he would like some Netflix and chill tho, he has a hard time trying to control his lust for you. He just desires you so much, all the time, that it's really hard for him to keep cool.
Kiro will practically fly to your house and fiercely kiss when you jump into his arms as soon as he crosses the front door, eager for each other.
The first time is fast and powerful, the second is playful and fun, the third is slow and very gentle.
Between making love and playing the new mmorpg you two started together, you stay awake until the sun starts rising in the sky. You both fall asleep after the third time.
Looking at his sleepy face, falling asleep yourself, you think how fond you are of the dark+dorky combination that is Kiro.
...
Soooo, that's it. If you hated, please don't let me know, thank you very much! It took more time than I thought it would but I quite liked how it came out... Constructive criticism is always very much welcomed! Thanks for reading!
And if it's not too much trouble, could you tell me which one you liked better?

Top 5 Male Characters
Thank you for the tags @paopufruittt, @pseudofaux and @otonymous. I actually had this all set up to post yesterday before tumblr flunked out on me (again) smdh.
This turned long.
1. William Owen Herondale (The Infernal Devices)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You cannot read this and tell me you're not in love with this perfect, disastrously handsome, self-sacrificing British asshole. Will is the undisputed first king of this heart (I refuse to stand down with all my banners of love on display!!!)
2. Kaname Kuran (Vampire Knight)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another self-sacrificing fool. 。゜(`Д´)゜。 Kaname can be found in a dictionary under "Angst Personified". He's the man who birthed the mould my current biases all somewhat fit in. Powerful and charismatic. Protective of his remaining family and selfless for them to an almost suicidal degree. Cold and calculating against enemies. Has that long, dark coat aesthetic working for him hngh.
Closest otome counterpart for Kaname would be IkeRev's Lancelot Kingsley. (Leaders carrying the weight of the entire world on their shoulders)
3. Okita Sougo (Gintama)
Tumblr media
Another dickhead! 😂 Okita is the best swordsman in the Shinsengumi and the only thing sharper than his sword are those scathing words of his. He's a bratty idiot though. I love idiots. With a deceptively innocent exterior, he's callous and sadistic and a man I'd very much like to step on (please step on me in turn, Captain Okita). His closest otome twin would be IkeRev's Edgar Bright.
4. Oda Nobunaga (Ikémen Sengoku)
Tumblr media
I don't even need to get into my adoration of the wonder and light that is Nobunaga. I have an entire post somewhere on my blog, dedicated in worship of his soft ways and toe-sucking glory. 😂❤🖤
5. Sanada Nobuyuki (SLBP) & Kiro (MLQC)
Don't @ me please, I know. I just couldn't choose between the MLQC boys (yes all of them!) and the Older Sanada.
Tumblr media
If you ever find a person able to resist those eyes that would capture and never let go, do introduce me. 😂
Tumblr media
Kiro is a devilish, sweet wonder. He's not my usual type at all. Some days I have to sit and wonder how he even made my top 5.
Tumblr media
And he provides some great manspreading shots!
Honorable Mentions (Crude Collage Style):
Tumblr media
Tagging @its-mew, @op-peccatori, @camilynn22, @heavenzfiend and anyone else who sees this and would like to do it. (Please tag me if you do!)

…And They Lived Happily Ever After - MC Reading To Sick MLQC Boys
If the boys are gonna read to MC, you bet MC’s gonna read for them too.
Requested by @allegra-note
Victor:
Will claim to the ends of the Earth that he is not sick. He does not get sick.
Victor, you are literally leaking out of your entire face. Lie the fuck down.
MC will tie him down if she has to. (And maybe if she doesn’t)
Will *try* to make him soup. (It may or may not be soup from a can)
He will eat it because she made it. Probably commenting about how awful it is the entire time.
After soup, storytime.
Will probably read The Little Prince to start, it’s not long
Then moves into fairy tales
“You don’t have to do this. Did I say stop?”
Tsundere is tsundere.
Will pull a Scheherazade and make sure she doesn’t leave or at least always comes back to read more.
Even when he’s better.
Will probably fake being sick at least once just so she’ll read to him
Victor JUST ASK
Lucien:
This will go either one of two ways:
First: will also deny to the ends of the Earth that he is not, and never does, get sick.
Second: Will knock on her door and ask her to take care of him.
Second may happen even if he isn’t sick. Like maybe he just has minor allergies and wants time with her.
Has a smile on his face the entire time she reads to him
Asks questions about what she’s reading to him and why
Comes to love The Little Prince as much as she does
She is his rose. She will always be his rose.
1000% will claim he’s too sick to even go next door and insists to spend the night.
Sickie snuggles!
You are his favorite medicine and his panacea.
Gavin:
Tries to act like he’s not dying internally so she won’t worry
Ends up tucked in to his bright-red ears
“MC, you don’t have to do this”
“Yes I do. Now stay there.”
He loves the sound of her voice
Seriously she could read the fucking dictionary
Debates asking her to since it’ll mean she reads to him for a long time
Instant noodles taste even better when she makes it for him
Sleeps the soundest he’s slept in years with her beside him
Debates calling in sick another day just so he can stay with her
Kiro:
Tries to act strong at first. Can’t worry Miss Chips!
Is somehow the worst eater out of all four when sick.
Seriously, how do you maintain homeostasis Kiro
MC will order him soup, make sure he eats it
And then tuck him in for storytime
Kiro is LIVING FOR IT
Though he’s not 100% sure if it’s this amazing because of his fever or her
Makes her read stories to him on the phone even when better
Yeah, it’s her. It’s definitely her.
