CHAPTER FOUR: SOMEWHERE IN DETROIT
You sat on Bobby’s porch, sipping on coffee that had more espresso shots than what was healthy. You had all four of the Horsemen’s rings, and all you had to do now was to get Lucifer in Sam’s body. The problem was figuring out where Lucifer would be.
You rubbed your eyes, trying to shake off the exhaustion that’s been building up in your bones over the past few days. Weeks. Years. If someone asked you how you were doing right now and you had to say the truth, you’d say you felt like you were thrown around like a ragdoll by a bunch of super-powered toddlers. 
The brothers were out in the yard, probably making some tiny repairs to maintain Baby. If you had to guess, they were probably having the Big Conversation about Sam’s plan. Your head hung low, and for the umpteenth time this week, someone joined your little pity party. 
At least they never left you alone.
“How you holdin’ up?” Bobby asked you, taking off his cap as he sat beside you. The wooden boards creaked under the added weight. The older man grunted as he bent his knees to get to your level.
“How’re your knees holding up?” you grinned at your father figure. He shook his head and ruffled your hair. 
“Answer the question, young lady.”
“I’m barely holding up, Bobby,” you tried to joke, only to be met with a serious expression on his face. “Hey, don’t look at me like that. You don’t get to do that.”
“It’s about Sam, isn’t it?” he questioned softly. 
You took a long, deep breath and set your mug down, “Yes! Yes, it is. It always is. There. You happy?”
“Well, you don’t have to get all snippy with me. We’re all worried about him. I’m just worried about you,” he paused for a moment. “Because everyone knows what you have with him is special.”
Your jaw clenched, feeling a strong urge to just up and leave. No one, especially you, wanted to hear about how their relationship with someone they love was so special, only to be reminded of how they’d lose it all in the span of a week. There was only so much a person could take and as patient as you were, even you had a limit. 
When you didn’t respond, Bobby continued, “If I know anything about love, sweetheart, it’s that losing it could be the worst thing to happen to you.”
“Is that supposed to make me feel better?”
He shot you a look, his way of telling you to let him keep going, “It’s scary. You’ll have everything to lose. Love makes you do crazy, insane things, but you found something not a lot people have. People spend their whole lives looking for this sort of thing, and here you are, what? Sixteen, seventeen years strong?”
“Eighteen.”
He chuckled, “Eighteen. All I’m saying is, I’m sorry that this has to happen. I know you love him, and let me tell you, that boy looks at you like you’re his whole world. Sam was always the soft one. You took care of him in ways John and Dean couldn’t… but it’s time to let him go.”
Hot tears were spilling now, and you wanted to curse Bobby for hitting you with the cold hard truth, even if you knew deep down that you needed to hear it.
“I don’t think I can,” your voice trembled, a vulnerability you rarely showed in all your years of hunting. “I can’t lose him too, Bobby. Not him.”
“Listen to me,” he wiped away your tears. “When all of this is over, you’re the one who’ll be left here. You’re the one who’ll live. If I know anything about Sam, it’s that he’d want you to live your life as best as you can, even if he can’t say it to you straight.”
“Get to the point, Bobby,” you answer tiredly despite the caffeine rushing in your veins.
“Sam won’t be here,” you tried to steel yourself when these words left Bobby’s mouth. “But you will. I’m willing to bet a big part of why he’s so willing to jump in the first place was because he knew you’d be okay. So be okay for him, even if you aren’t.”
You didn’t notice how tight your grip was on the sleeve of your jacket, and you hated yourself just a little bit more in that moment because you felt like a child dealing with feelings she’s never had to face before. You were a hunter, you had to be above this.
Sam would’ve said otherwise. You were always more than that to him: more than a hunter. More than a friend.
You and Bobby eventually went back inside to prepare everything you needed for this final trip, which included gallons of demon blood for Sam to consume. You’d never say it to his face because it’d make him feel worse than he already felt, but it was disgusting. Perhaps you wouldn’t be in this predicament right now if you were a little bit more firm in keeping him away from hunting when Dean was in hell, maybe he would’ve been away from Ruby. With the help of Castiel, the work was finished much quicker.
Sam joined you and Cas in filling up the trunk of the Impala with the jugs while Bobby and Dean talked about Lucifer’s possible whereabouts. The work was silent between the three of you; it wasn’t the best time to discuss what-if’s when Cas was right there but then again, there was never a right time.
Dean came back to get Sam and Cas, after pinpointing where Lucifer was likely to be: Detroit. Sam looked at you one last time, and you felt his gaze on you. When you turned around, you knew then that everything Bobby told you earlier in the day was true. Sam’s arm rested on the car door, taking a moment to just look at you before he went into the Impala and marched right into the Death Star. He did look at you like you were his whole world, and it took your breath away. 
It was, of course, Dean and Bobby that broke you out of your little moment, urging the both of you to hurry up so you could all get going. You hopped into the passenger seat of Bobby’s van so that you could tail the Impala all the way to Detroit.
“Here goes nothing,” you thought.
▼△▼△▼△▼△▼
“Aw, ain’t he a little angel?” Dean grinned. Cas was sleeping in the backseat, probably beat from all the work they’ve had to do over the past few weeks. The brothers could only imagine what it must’ve been like to spend thousands of years following orders, and then suddenly breaking free from all of it. 
Sam only chuckled, muttering about how angels didn’t really sleep, and the car ride is silent for a while.
“Sam, I gotta bad feeling about this,” the older Winchester admitted.
“Well, you’d be nuts to have a good feeling about it.”
Dean frowned, “You know what I mean. Detroit. He always said he’d jump your bones in Detroit. Here we are.”
“Here we are.”
There was nothing Sam could say that would calm Dean’s worries. Not that anything could, since they were quite literally about to meet the Devil. Instead, the two talked about the possibilities; how Lucifer might’ve known something they didn’t. Sam was quick to point out how he probably did, hoping that at the very least, the fallen archangel didn’t know about the Horsemen’s rings.
Another bout of silence.
Sam shifted in his seat to face Dean, “Hey, um… on the subject, there’s something I gotta talk to you about.”
“What?”
“This thing goes our way and… I Triple Lindy into that box… you know I’m not coming back.”
“Yeah, I’m aware,” Dean’s answer was automatic. He barely looked away from the road.
Sam took a more serious tone, “So you gotta promise me something.”
“Okay, yeah. Anything.”
“You gotta promise not to try and bring me back.”
Dean very nearly stopped the car right then and there, “What? No! I didn’t sign up for that. Your hell is gonna make my tour look like Graceland. You want me to just sit by and do nothing?”
“Once the Cage is shut, you can’t go poking at it, Dean,” Sam stayed firm. “It’s too risky.”
“You can’t ask me to do this,” Dean pleaded with his baby brother. He wasn’t always one for thinking ahead, but he couldn’t fathom not trying to save his brother. 
“I’m sorry, Dean. You have to.”
“So then what am I supposed to do?” Dean pressed. 
“You go find Lisa,” Dean stiffened at the mention of her name, but Sam continued. “You pray to God that she’s dumb enough to take you in and you… you have barbecues and go to football games. You go live some normal, apple pie life, Dean. Promise me.”
“And what about her?”
This time, it was Sam that froze.
“What about her?” Sam’s words had a dangerous edge to them, a stark contrast to the gentleness he exhibited just moments prior.
“Did you give her this whole speech too? Because what is she supposed to do, Sammy? You tell me to go have a normal, apple pie life, but what does she have to come back to when this is all over?”
“She’ll live her life,” Sam answered softly. “She’ll have to.”
“For someone so smart, you’re goddamn stupid, you know that?” Dean grunted. 
“What is there to talk about, Dean? There’s no other way to get rid of Lucifer, and I’m doing this to keep her safe,” Sam tried to defend himself, unable to face the truth that he’d been trying to avoid ever since this plan was formulated all those nights ago.
“She loves you so damn much,” Dean tried to make his brother see the other side of things; how his death will echo through the lives of everyone that cared for him. How it’ll echo through your life. “Even when you’re being a dumbass, she fought tooth and nail to keep you safe. Now you’re asking, not just me, but her, to let you die?”
Sam stayed quiet for a while before answering his brother, “At least she’ll be alive, and that’s all that matters to me.”
The car ride was silent for the last time.
Sam craned his head to look out the window, even if there wasn’t anything particularly interesting to be seen outside. In a few short hours, Lucifer would possess him, and there was just no telling how that would go. He hoped he was strong enough, because once Lucifer got inside his head, he was scared that Lucifer would make it his mission to ruin you just to destroy Sam even further. It would’ve been the most effective way to do so.
He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself. His fear and his anger weren’t gonna help him beat the devil. Sam tried his best, his damn hardest, to go to places in his mind that he cherished. He kept these memories close to his heart. They were sacred.
He remembered being thirteen, and reading lore books with you.
He remembered being seventeen, and dancing to Whitney Houston with you with nothing but a streetlight as your disco ball.
In between all those memories, there were feelings that only ever grew stronger with time. He doesn’t remember if he ever told you, maybe he has. Maybe after a couple of drinks, maybe at his lowest point. 
Still, all Sam knew, and all he needed to know, was that as long as you were alive and breathing, it was worth whatever price he had to pay. He owed you that much.
▼△▼△▼△▼△▼
In Detroit, there was a chill in the air that gave you goosebumps. The guys were unloading the gallon jugs of blood from the car. Bobby confirmed that there were at least two dozen demons inside one of the buildings. This had to be it.
You stayed back, making small talk with Castiel while Sam drank the demon blood in some faraway corner. 
“You are anxious.”
You gave him an amused smile, “That would be the understatement of the century.”
He simply nodded in acknowledgment and placed his hand on your shoulder.
“Sam is strong. He’ll conquer Lucifer.”
“I hope you’re right, Cas.”
Sam and Dean walked back over to your little group. Sam wiped away the remnants of blood that threatened to trickle down his chin. One by one, Sam talked to each of you. It was goodbye. A hug from Bobby, some awkward chatting with Cas. Then, he reached you. The whole world stopped.
“I wish you knew how much I don’t want you to do this,” you looked up at him, your arms were crossed in an attempt to both shield yourself from the cold and from him.
“Believe me, I know,” he sighed, before taking one of your hands into his own and bringing it up to his face. “I wouldn’t if I didn’t have to.”
“I know,” your answer was laced with something that was barely acceptance and more like defeat. 
“I’m sorry,” he squeezed your hand. “I wish it didn’t have to be like this.”
“It’s okay,” you wrapped your arms around him, letting his warmth and his scent and everything that was his just completely overwhelm you. “I’ll see you soon, won’t I?”
He buried his face into the crook of your neck, hugging you even tighter. It wasn’t often that you saw Sam cry, but you could feel the shakiness of his breath that he tried to hide as he clung onto you.
“Yeah. Yeah, I’ll see you soon.”
“Hey, don’t get all soft on me now, Sammy,” you joked, rubbing his back as you did so.
“I’m pretty sure I always was.”
It took him a while to pull away, not caring if Dean was waiting for him to catch up. This would be the last time he’d get to hold you like this, and he wanted to savor every second he could get before he was gone. He took a deep breath and pressed a kiss to your temple, then to your cheek, then finally, your lips.
It was everything you both hoped it would be and for a moment, you could ignore the sadness growing inside of you.
The kiss was soft. Tender. You moved in a way only two people whose souls were intertwined forever would. He wasn’t shaking anymore. If anything, this kiss flooded him with an overwhelming sense of clarity.
He had to keep you safe, so he forced himself to walk away from you, even if every fiber of his being told him to say those three little words… but he couldn’t hurt you anymore than he was about to, so he stayed silent.
You watched as the distance between you grew. The kiss lingered on your lips like a ghost. It was the calm before the storm because as soon as Sam was out of your sight, the sorrow pierced through you. This life always left you in pieces, but this was the first time in a long time, that you felt pain like this. It was precise; meant to target where it hurt the most.
Bobby and Cas approached you with solemn looks on their faces; they both knew that there was nothing they could say that would ease the pain you were feeling. You wanted to share your grief with them, you really did, in hopes that you wouldn’t be crushed by the weight of it.
But you couldn’t. Just like what Bobby said: what you had with Sam was special, perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime kind of connection, and that meant your grief was a cross only you could bear. No one else could possibly hope to understand what it was like.
After about twenty minutes, a white flash of light erupted from the windows of the building where Sam was and you knew that the worst had come to pass. Lucifer was inside of him. Without thinking, you ran inside the building with nothing but the pistol you had strapped to your leg and a dagger tucked under your belt. You ignored the cold fear that seeped into your bones, no matter how much it tried to weaken your resolve. You ignored the shouts of Bobby and Cas from behind you, telling you to stop.
You thought of Sam, now possessed by Lucifer and no doubt revelling in taunting Dean.
Dean. He was still inside, and if he was still alive, you owed it to him to try and get him out of there.
As you made your way up the building, bodies were strewn about. Blood was spilled on the floor and splattered on the walls. You grit your teeth, and tightened the grip on your gun. Finally, you reached the fourth floor. A blast of cold air hit your face and standing in the middle of the room was Sam. Dean was backed up against a wall.
“Ah, you’re just in time,” Sam— no, Lucifer, exclaimed. “I was wondering when Sammy’s little girlfriend would come in to save the day. I didn’t see you before. You know, when these two tried to kill me with the Colt? It was so sad. For them, I mean. But let me tell you, you do not disappoint, honey. Prettier in person if I do say so myself.”
“Get the hell away from her!” Dean yelled, trying his best to fight against the force of Lucifer’s power.
“No, I don’t think so,” Lucifer cocked his head mockingly at Dean. He approached you, smirking when he noticed you were too terrified and confused to even take a step back. “Little Sammy certainly had taste. You’re just exquisite, aren’t you? I think… I’ll keep you.”
He brushed his fingers against your hair, taking a big whiff of your scent in an overdramatic and freakish show of dominance. He knew you wouldn’t and couldn’t do anything, not as long as he was wearing Sam’s face.
Humans were so simple.
“Well,” he turned to face Dean one last time with a malicious smile. “Bye-bye, big brother.”
With a snap of his fingers, both you and Lucifer were gone in a cloud of black smoke. Dean was all alone.

True story behind The Conjuring 3 – inside Arne Cheyenne Johnson’s “the devil made me do it” court case
The latest instalment in The Conjuring franchise once again has its roots in a real-life case.
Tumblr media
By Patrick Cremona, Radio Times. UK.
Published: Friday, 21st May 2021 at 2:56 pm
The Conjuring 3 takes its title from a real-life court case that dates back to the 1980s. The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It takes a look at the case and the Warrens’ involvement in the case that originated the phrase “the devil made me do it”.
Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga return as paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren for the next instalment in The Conjuring horror franchise, with the new movie heading to UK cinemas on 28th May 2021.
As with the previous movies in the franchise, The Conjuring 3 is taken from a real case file with reported connections to the supernatural. Previously we’ve seen spin-off movies focused on the Annabelle doll, also inspired by the Warrens who keep it in their occult museum.

The case in question this time around is the trial of Arne Cheyenne Johnson, a man who was convicted of manslaughter in Connecticut in 1981 – becoming the first person to have claimed a defence of demonic possession during a murder trial.
The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It true story
The Conjuring 3 is inspired by the trial of 19-year-old Arne Cheyenne Johnson, who was charged with murdering his landlord Alan Bono in February 1981. During the trial, the defendant gained infamy for becoming the first person to claim a defence of demonic possession in a United States court – although perhaps unsurprisingly this version of events was not accepted by the judge.
His defence rested on testimony given by the family of his fiancée, Debbie Glatzel. Debbie’s 11-year-old brother had reportedly been the subject of demonic possession in the months prior to the murder, with his parents having grown increasingly worried by a number of unexplained and ominous events.
The story really starts in July 1980, when the 11-year-old David Glatzel was helping Johnson clean up a Connecticut rental property he was prepping to move so he could move in.
While there David claimed to have come across a “burnt and black-looking” old man who he claims pushed him into a waterbed saying he would bring them harm if they moved into the house.
When David returned home he continued to see the old man. He described him as having a white beard, wearing jeans and a flannel shirt. David claimed the man’s skin was charred as if he’d been burnt too. The young boy experienced night terrors and woke up with bruises and scratches on his body. He’d wake screaming and tell his parents he’d seen the sunken features of the old man “like an animal”, with horns, pointy hears and jagged teeth (via People). (The Conjuring 3 demon appears to have gone a different route, with early photos showing a white masked man wearing a striped red long coat.)
The family said they also had heard unexplained noises coming from their attic.
In trying to get to the bottom of the issue they had called in Ed and Lorraine Warren – who by this point were already well-known paranormal experts – to diagnose and cure their son.
Ed Warren said he heard banging and growling sounds coming from their basement, and that he also say a rocking chair move on its own. Speaking to paranormal researcher Tony Spera, Ed claimed David’s toy dinosaur also walked on its own towards the family. He also said a deep voice spoke to them saying: “Beware, you’re all going to die.”
Lorraine also claimed she saw a black mist appear next to David while her husband interviewed him. “While Ed interviewed the boy, I saw a black, misty form next to him, which told me we were dealing with something of a negative nature. Soon the child was complaining that invisible hands were choking him—and there were red marks on him. He said that he had the feeling of being hit,” she told People magazine.
David’s mother Judy had previously claimed it was a ghost, but the Warrens rejected this idea saying it was an indicator of a demon.
Lorraine also claimed she saw David being choked by invisible hands and he told her “he had the feeling he was being hit”. She told People that she could see red marks afterwards and she heard him growl and hiss. Lorraine also claimed he spoke in unrecognisable voices, that he recited passages of the Bible as well as Paradise Lost. Debbie Glatzel also claimed he spit, bit, kicked and swore at her and he flopped around “head to toe like a ragdoll”.
She also told the Chippewa Herald Telegram that “he manifested. Just a face on the wall. High cheekbones. A narrow chin. A thin nose. Big black eyes hidden in dark holes. He showed his teeth.”
Ed Warren also told The Washington Post: “Right away, I knew there was something to this. I felt like a good fisherman when he knows there’s something on the line.” He added that he thought there were 43 demons inside the boy, and David named them all.
David Glatzel’s exorcism
In the movie, Father Gordon (Steve Coulter) blesses the home. The priest’s name was changed for the movie, but a Roman Catholic priest did visit the home to bless it.
After continued efforts from the Warrens, the Glatzels, and multiple priests (including Rev Francis E.Virgulak) a formal exorcism took place, with witnesses claiming that a demon fled the child’s body.
Ed Warren claimed Arne, who was present at the exorcism, shouted: “Take me on, leave my little buddy alone!”
Apparently, David showed signs of improving, but Arne started to deteriorate. TV series A Haunting covered the case in the episode Where Demons Dwell, claiming that the demon took control of Johnson’s car forcing it into a tree. While he was uninjured, he was shaken by the experience. The series also blamed a demon when Johnson fell from a tree while working.
Judy told The Washington Post she paid $75 an hour for a session with a local psychiatrist too, but it was up to church officials to set up and pay for further psychological testing (via Newsweek). David’s parents were told he was “normal” but had a “minimal learning disability”.
Alan Bono’s murder
Clearly not content with its newfound freedom, though, the story goes that the spirit then immediately took control of Johnson and it was under his control that the murder of the landlord took place several months later.
Johnson and Debbie Glatzel decided against renting the original home, and instead rented a small house near Debbie’s work. Debbie was working a dog groomer for the landlord, Alan Bono, 40, who was also the kennel manager.
Bono, who has been renamed in the movie as Bruno Sauls, lived in an apartment above the kennels.
On the day of the murder, Johnson had taken the day off work and spent the day with Debbie, 26, at the kennel. Along with some other companions, Debbie, Johnson and Bono had lunch at a local restaurant and enjoyed a few drinks, becoming drunk in the process, and when they later returned to the kennel a heated fight broke out with Bono becoming increasingly agitated.
During this argument, Bono seized Debbie’s nine-year-old cousin Mary, who had also been present, and refused to let her go – which then led Johnson to confront him and eventually stab him repeatedly with a five-inch pocket knife, all while growling like an animal. Bono suffered “four or five tremendous wounds” mainly to his chest area.
Bono died several hours later and Johnson was later arrested roughly two miles away from the murder. The murder is believed to be the first murder in Brookfield, Connecticut’s 193-year history, and the first in the 30 years since the town had police records.
The next day, Lorraine Warren immediately claimed that it was a case of demonic possession, which naturally led to much media coverage around the world.

Arne Johnson’s Trial
Johnson’s trial began on 28th October 1981 at Connecticut’s Superior Court in Danbury.
Johnson’s lawyer Martin Minnella attempted to enter a plea of “not guilty” due to demonic possession stating Johnson “was possessed by a demon, and it was a demon who actually manipulated his body.” It was the first known court case in US history that had attempted this defence.
Minnella, speaking about the case and the fame that followed, said: “The courts have dealt with the existence of God. Now they��re going to have to deal with the existence of the Devil.” (via the New York Times).
However, the plea of not guilty due to demonic possession was immediately thrown out by presiding judge Robert Callahan who said that it would be “irrelative and unscientific” to allow testimony on these grounds, and so despite the ensuing media attention the jury was not legally allowed to consider demonic possession.
Johnson’s defence claimed that he hadn’t been the same after Glatzel’s exorcism, and witnesses were called upon saying they saw a demon transfer from Glatzel to Johnson. Debbie Glatzel also testified that Johnson behaved similarly to Glatzel. Ed Warren claimed Johnson had made a “fatal mistake” by taunting the alleged demon.
Debbie claimed Johnson had come to Bono’s apartment to repair a stereo for him, but that Bono had been drinking red wine and the pair got into an argument about payment for the repair. She also said Johnson was in a trance when he stabbed Bono.
According to reports, in the three months Debbie and Johnson had lived next to Bono they had been friends. The police believed that Bono and Debbie’s relationship was more than boss and employee, but Debbie denied this despite the police claiming the argument was over her rather than the stereo. The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It does take this angle into the story, exploring the ‘jealous lover’ plot, which was also shown in the 1983 movie The Demon Murder Case (starring Kevin Bacon).
Tumblr media

After the jury deliberated for more than three days, Johnson was convicted of first-degree manslaughter on 24th November 1981 and was sentenced to between 10 and 20 years in prison. He was released in 1986 having only served five years of his sentence.
Even though demonic possession was not actually allowed as a legitimate defence in the trial, the case became colloquially known as “the Devil made me do it case” – hence the subtitle of this film.
Where are the Glatzels and Johnson now?
Johnson married Debbie Glatzel while he was in prison. He also got his high school diploma while inside. The pair went on to have two children.
Lorraine Warren went on to write the book The Devil in Connecticut with Gerald Brittle detailing the case, and they shared the profits from the sales with the Glatzel family. David’s brother Carl Glatzel did speak out against the book when it was republished in 2006 saying it was a “complete lie” and that “the Warrens concocted a phoney story about demons in an attempt to get rich and famous at our expense.”
Carl claimed the Warrens told the family they’d be millionaires – it was later confirmed they were paid $2,000. Carl also says David was suffering with his mental health at the time, but he recovered. In 2007, David and Carl filed a lawsuit against Brittle and the Warrens for unspecified financial damages. They sued the authors and publishers for violating their privacy, libel and “intentional infliction of emotional distress.”
Brittle claims his book is based on fact and he interviewed the Glatzel family for more than 100 hours, which he has video of. Lorraine Warren also said the six priests who performed exorcisms on Glatzel agreed that he was possessed.
Debbie Glatzel and Arne Johnson have always backed the account of the possession, but David’s father denies his son was possessed.
How the movie tackles such a complicated case and how closely they stick to the real life events remains to be seen.
The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is released in cinemas on 4th June, 2021 on HBO Max and 28th May in the UK.

Bad Coffee
A/N: I'M BACK BAYBEE and finally posting this request from like last year. im sorry.
Summary: Y/N is a changeling who accidentally drank some gravesand coffee uh oh! Now your boyfriend saves the day before you can kill a 15 year old boy
Warnings: Fighting? Violence I guess?
Word Count: 741
Tags: @furblrwurblr @alovesongshewrote if ur url has changed since i last posted please just send an ask. weeps
Douxie just knew something was going to go wrong that day. He had an awful, sinking feeling weighing heavy on him as soon as he woke up in the morning but no idea why. Everything started out okay, he thought.
Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary occurred. No monsters running around, no ominous warnings, hell, even his customers were especially pleasant.
But that changed when he got the call, just after a polite older woman left. He answered once the door closed the rest of the way, and he was cut off before he could say anything. Jim was on the other end, breaths coming fast and his voice pitched up in panic.
“Douxie? D-Douxie, are you there?”
“Yeah, I’m here, what’s the matter?”
“It’s (Y/N),” he said, and Douxie almost dropped his phone. He heard what had to have been a fight on the other end of the line, Jim grunting and hopping out of the way of attacks.
“Where?” He asked, voice suddenly very serious.
“At school,” Jim answered. “Coffee,” he said, then the audio started to break. “Gravesand” was the next thing Douxie heard. Without another second wasted, he jumped the counter and sprinted out of the store without bothering to lock up behind him.
His mind raced and he felt like his heart was going to burst. Whatever was going on, he knew he had to get there. There was no time to spare. Not only was the trollhunter in danger, so was the love of his life and he was the only one who could possibly reel you back in.
When he arrived, the school was already in chaos. The first thing he saw was Jim frantically trying to fight off two changelings, one of whom Douxie was intimately familiar with.
“(Y/N)!” He cried, sprinting towards the fray. You barely even had a chance to look up from the poor boy you were trying to kill side-by-side with Strickler before Douxie leapt at you.
Your weapons were sent flying as he tackled you away, giving Jim the chance to get through to Strickler now that he wasn’t outnumbered.
“(Y/N) you have to listen to me,” he said once he landed on you. You didn’t. Instead, Douxie was thrown off of you, sent flying for a moment before crashing hard to the ground.
He grunted, pushing himself up even though his head was still spinning. He was used to that kind of thing by then. Maybe not from you, but after tracking down enough magical beasts one adjusts to the violent ragdolling they’ll be prone to do.
“Do I, now?” You hissed, getting to your feet and retrieving your weapons. You stalked towards Douxie, who was frantically swiping his fingers along his brace to try and find the right runes for something that wouldn’t hurt you. His hands were shaking hard, though, and that threw off his usually deft movements.
You lunged, poised to kill, but Douxie reacted just in time, a blue rope of magic twining tightly around your body and pinning your arms to your sides. With your momentum thrown off, you fell to the ground and to your knees, hissing spitefully at your boyfriend. He, of course, didn’t take it too personally. He knew what gravesand could do to somebody’s head, even if he had never had that kind of first hand experience.
“Darling,” he said softly, one hand wrapped white-knuckled around one end of the magic that was binding you. “You aren’t—“
You cut him off, thrashing against your restraints and growling insults.
“Shut up! You talk sweet but none of it’s true, is it? Darling? Look at me!” You snarled at him, spitting at his feet. “I bet you’ve got someone else. A human lover, one who’s not a monster!” You bared your teeth at him, long fangs snapping together threateningly.
His expression softened and he settled in front of you. “(Y/N). Darling. Love of my life, I will adore you no matter what form you take.”
He placed a hand on your face, safely out of biting range and leaned in to press a kiss to your forehead. And just like that, the wicked glow in your eyes flickered out.
“Douxie, I... I’m so...”
“I know, darling.”
When he freed you from your magic binds you just slumped forward, burying your face in his shoulder. Your arms wrapped snugly around him as he rubbed your back soothingly.
“I love you.”

Tumblr media
“Dear, at least try to look like you’re having fun,” your mother chastises you, poking at your back to get you to stand up straight. “This ball is for you, you know.”
“To announce my engagement to that buffoon of a prince,” you mutter while subtly rolling your eyes. They land on said buffoon who is currently chatting up a group of female courtiers, all of them in dresses that don’t leave much to the imagination paired with smiles and body language that suggest something a bit more sinister. The prince eats all of this up of course, giving them his most charismatic smile before it disappears behind the rim of the wine glass held delicately between his slender fingers.
For as long as you’ve known Taehyung, he has always had that same smile on his face, knowing that it will get him anything he wants and out of any sort of trouble he seems to have found himself in. On more than one occasion, you’ve seen him drink almost 3 days away, a third of his castle’s cellar demolished because of him. He’s missed out on council meetings, celebrations, royal announcements, appearances, and everything in between and nobody bats an eye. To them, His Royal Highness Kim Taehyung is the picture perfect prince. But you know better. You know that underneath that facade, underneath the mask and the costume that he puts on every day and night, you know just how cruel Taehyung can be. The scars on your best friend’s back and the feelings of powerlessness that you have to push down every single time you see him are a constant reminder.
Your eyes roam over to Hoseok who is standing with his back against the wall, eyes scanning over the entire ballroom until they meet yours. The hand gripping the handle of his sword relaxes before being raised up to wave at you. Beside him, his captain smacks him lightly on his side while shaking his head and even though you’re far away, you can practically hear Captain Namjoon’s quiet scolding to your best friend about not letting his guard down. Hobi nods along to whatever his captain is saying but you know that he isn’t listening since he’s heard the lecture from him practically every time the two of you are in the same room.
“How about a dance, love,” someone calls out to you and you look away to find none other than your soon-to-be-announced fiancé standing before you. His hand is stretched out towards you and although Taehyung looks like the picture of chivalry, the smirk on his face and teasing light in his eyes suggest otherwise. 
Your mother all but shoves you towards him and you have to fight the scowl that threatens to appear on your face the second you get within a foot of the prince. You place your hand in his and allow him to lead you to the dance floor, the slower song that was being played ending and giving way to a more lively waltz. Your other hand goes to his shoulder while his goes to your hip. As you begin dancing, you push his hand up to your waist with a pointed look while Taehyung just gives you an innocent smile.
“What?” he asks, head tilting a bit to the side. “Can’t get a little handsy with my fiancée? Or are you worried that your little boyfriend’s going to have a fit over there?”
Your eyebrows draw together at that. “Boyfriend?” you repeat. “What are you talking about?”
“That knight standing at the wall over there,” Taehyung replies, chin jutting out in the direction of Hoseok. “What’s his name? Hongjoong? You were practically eye fucking him before I asked you to dance.”
At that, your arms almost drop and your feet almost stop carrying you but Taehyung’s grip on you tightens and he practically drags you around like a ragdoll in the middle of the dance floor. “We were not-! Hoseok is my best friend,” you sputter out, looking at him incredulously while he just smiles down at you.
Taehyung shrugs without a word and spins you around, but when he turns you to face him once more, he’s no longer there. In fact, there’s no one around you at all. You stand alone on the dance floor, a single spotlight on you, and the sight in front of you makes your blood freeze in your veins. Your mother has thrown her body over your father’s, blood covering her dress while she screams and begs for him to wake up. Beside her, Taehyung’s father looks out at the dance floor with fear in his eyes as they meet yours. You’re torn between running up there and running away, but even if you were to make a decision, you don’t think your feet would be able to move anyways. So you’re stuck watching in horror as Hoseok steps out of the shadows from behind your parents with his face hardened and a look in his eyes that’s unfamiliar to you. 
The blood rushing in your ears is so loud that you can barely make out what he’s saying and even though you’re alone, there’s someone crying near you, Hoseok’s voice much quieter compared to theirs. The tremble in his voice matches the trembling of his hand as he draws his sword and faces the queen. “We no longer see the royal family as fit to rule our kingdom. We, the citizens, cannot stand to see you merging our beloved home with theirs, which many of us have escaped from during the war. You took us into your home, we swore loyalty to you, and now you expect me to forget the horrors I saw in the Hangsang kingdom?”
You hear a whimper and it’s only then that you realize it’s you that’s crying. You don’t fail to notice that Hoseok said “me” instead of “we”. Regardless of who suggested this coup, Hoseok has made it personal. His captain steps out of the shadows from behind Taehyung’s father and together they raise their swords and cut down both your mother and Taehyung’s father. A scream leaves your lips as you watch their bodies drop and a voice whispers in your ear, “Run.”
Tumblr media
You’re gasping for air and you can feel your body shaking when you open your eyes but when you see Taehyung above you, you realize that he’s the one shaking you. “Finally,” he sighs as he stops, his hands lingering. “I was worried someone was going to come in here with you screaming bloody murder like that.”
When you sit up, it takes you a moment to realize where you are. Taehyung moves to sit on the edge of the bed, his hands leaving you, and you almost reach out to stop him as the chill in the air quickly settles over you. The room of the inn is small, housing only a bed that’s definitely too small for two people to sleep on and a dirty mirror hanging beside the door. What little of your belongings that you and Taehyung could bring or buy along the way are shoved in a corner and even with the full moon out tonight, the soot and grime covering the windows blocks out most of its light. When you look over at Taehyung, the bags under his eyes are most notable along with the stubble on his face. You’ve only been on the run for about a month now but you know that you look just as haggard and worn down as he does.
“Was it the same dream?” the prince asks, voice soft as he rubs at the scratchy fabric of the blanket between his fingers.
You rest your chin on one of your knees and wrap your arms around your legs. You’re still shaken and can’t even bring yourself to look him in the eye. “Isn’t it always?”
The two of you sit there in silence for a bit before you let out a huff and drag yourself out of the bed, taking the blanket and wrapping it around your shoulders. “I’m going outside for a bit.”
You know that you should stay inside, it’s safer especially with the amount of drunks that are probably still lingering in the inn’s tavern, but the silence is starting to feel a bit suffocating. No one pays you any notice as you walk down the stairs and out the door, the street quiet save for the occasional passerby. Leaning against the wall, you take a deep breath and allow the memories of the past few weeks to wash over you. It’s still hard for you to accept and you catch yourself having to do this more often than you’d like.
My best friend murdered my parents and my in-laws. Scenes of blood and swinging swords flash through your mind and you quickly shake your head. You don’t want to see that.
I’m on the run with the crown prince of Hangsang because people are trying to kill us. The weight of Taehyung’s hand in yours is something you’ve become all too familiar with, his long legs and fast stride always able to get the two of you out of whatever sort of trouble finds you nowadays. And out of everything that’s happened, from almost getting killed to stealing from markets, you think you’re most worried about the fact that you find comfort in Taehyung’s warmth now. You aren’t supposed to feel like this. He isn’t supposed to make your heart beat just a tiny bit faster whenever he smiles at you.
Taehyung isn’t as bad as I thought he-
“Come back to bed.”
Soft fingers trailing down your forearm bring you out of your thoughts and you know that the person standing beside you can’t be anyone other than the prince. Just as you have begrudgingly found comfort in him, he has also found solace in you. You don’t recoil when you feel his hand grip yours ever so gently, allowing him to do what he wants while he looks at you and you look up at the moon.
“The moon is beautiful, isn’t it?” you mumble. Your eyes don’t leave the sky but you squeeze his hand, letting him know that he has your attention all the same. “I’ve stared at the moon for my entire life, ever since I was a little girl, but it feels different now. Everything feels different now.”
“The moon has always been beautiful,” is all Taehyung says. And that’s enough—enough to draw your attention to him, enough to follow him back to your shared room, and enough to let him sleep beside you tonight, if just for this one night.

Two-timed pt.3 - Yandere!Bakugo Katsuki x fem!reader x yandere!Izuku Midoriya
@thirsthourdemon, here is day 16 of @yandere-sins‘ Yantober prompt list! This is the last part of the small series, so if you haven’t read part 1 and part 2 yet, please make sure to check those out before reading this one! I hope you enjoy what I wrote for prompt 16: darkness 
Warnings: vaguely mentioned rape, y/n turns catatonic, blood, murder, 
Word count: 1216
(Y/N) laid in bed, unmoving. She couldn’t bring herself to move, nor take in her surroundings. It was simply too much.
It’s been a few years since she was taken here. At first, she struggled, not wanting to give in to Deku and Bakugo’s insane idea of a relationship. But as the months passed by, and as months turned into years, the hope that she might be rescued by her family or friends one day slowly waned away, until there was nothing left. She was stuck here, she knew it, but she felt like she had to make the most of it.
Despite everything, (Y/N) had managed to find peace with the fact that every single aspect of her life is controlled by her captors. What she ate, what she wore, what she could or couldn’t do; it was all dictated in a special set of rules for her. At any given time of day, at least one of them would be keeping an eye on here like they were her personal bodyguards. (Y/N) followed the rules; there’s no use in disobeying when there’s no chance at escape.
Besides that, it wasn’t all that bad. She was well taken care of. Even back when she used to misbehave, they were still kind to her and made sure she ate and slept properly. The hugs and kisses were also starting to grow on her.
And luckily, she still had a piece of independence, the one thing she could keep safe for herself and not let them steal it away. When she kissed Deku or Bakugo and they got too heated, she could always say no to them and they would listen. Bakugo would be upset and try to push her to go a little further, but Deku would immediately back down and tell Bakugo they shouldn’t hurt (Y/N) by doing things like that. (Y/N) knew that with Deku around, Bakugo would never do something like that against her will.
But one day, Deku sent a text message saying that he was going to be home later than usual.
One day, Bakugo grinned slyly at (Y/N) and pushed his mouth on hers.
One day, Bakugo dragged (Y/N) into the bedroom and took her one piece of independence.
When Deku finally came home, it was already too late. Still unaware of what happened, he happily entered their shared apartment. “I’m home! Sorry I’m so late, I brought some of (Y/N)’s favourite snacks to make it up to you.”
He took off his shoes, dropped his bag on the kitchen counter and started waltzing towards (Y/N)’s bedroom, right at the moment when Bakugo came out of her room. His hair was tousled and the remains of a blush were visible on his face. With hazy eyes and a cocky grin, he simply said: “Yo, took you long enough.”
Deku looked at Bakugo suspiciously. He only looked like that when he came back from the bathroom after (Y/N) turned him down. “Is (Y/N) okay? Usually she greets me right when I get home.”
Bakugo laid a hand on Deku’s shoulder and as though it were a warning, told him: “She’s just tired. Let her rest.”
He winked at him and strolled to their living room, plopping down on the couch. His eyes were already glued to the TV in mere seconds.
Deku didn’t like this. Not one bit. After shooting Bakugo a glare, he rushed into (Y/N)’s room and found her lying still on the bed.
She was naked, bruises and hickeys all over her body. Salty sweat covered her skin and made her dishevelled hair stick to her shivering form. A few drops of blood, still fresh, had stained the matrass. Whatever had happened, took place not too long ago.
While seeing his beloved (Y/N), his sunshine, his darling, in this situation was enough to make him want to cry and hold her close, her eyes made his heart break in a thousand pieces.
Her eyes held no light. Whatever twinkle of curiosity and joy had been there after her years of captivity, was completely wiped out. Only darkness remained, two eyes capable of sight but seeing nothing. It was almost like she was a doll.
Deku immediately rushed to her side, landing on his knees. He covered her with a blanket and grabbed her hand tightly. Worried and on the verge of tears, he asked: “(Y/N)? What happened? What’s wrong?”
He got no answer. (Y/N) simply blinked and continued gazing at nothing. Deku’s hand desperately cupped her cheek. His thumb ran over her skin, brushing away the hairs. “Please say something, anything. What happened? Please tell me, I’ll make it all go away!”
Still nothing. The first tears had started rolling down his face. He tried to contain his sobs as well as he could, asking her what happened time and time again, until his hand touched a strange liquid in her hair.
When he put his hand closer to investigate it, he discovered it was a white, sticky fluid with an almost slime-y consistency. He didn’t have to think long to figure out what it was. Bakugo’s strange appearance, his behaviour, and now this liquid.
Deku clenched his hand into a fist so tight, his knuckles turned white. His teeth gritted together as he felt a red hot boiling rage take over his mind. Through his teeth, he growled: “Bakugo.”
--
(Y/N) kept lying there in bed, not moving a single muscle, despite hearing the vile curse words being thrown around beyond her bedroom wall. Even when the voices had turned into screams and grunts of pain, or when one voice desperately started pleading for his life, she had no reaction. Nor when that voice suddenly wasn’t there anymore.
From the corner of her eye, she saw a bloodied and beaten up Deku come back into her room. He crouched down in front of her, still breathing heavily from the physical effort. With a shaky breath, he told her that he took care of him, that she’d never have to see him ever again.
His arms snaked around her, picking her up like the limp ragdoll she was. She simply rested her head on his shoulder and allowed him to place her in the pleasantly warm bathtub. He quickly joined her, slotting himself behind her back and holding her tightly to his body. Below the water, Deku rubbed soothing circles on her stomach while he rested his head on her shoulder.
His mouth close to her ear, Deku kept whispering things in her ear. He said that they’re alone now, so they don’t have to worry about him anymore. They can just be at peace with each other forever, no one would interrupt them. No one would hurt her anymore. It will all be okay. I love you.
But (Y/N) couldn’t focus on his words. Her eyes were fixated on the blood that had washed off Deku and was now floating in the bathwater, making it stick to her skin. She raised her hand out of the water to examine the blood. Before she knew it, Deku’s hand reached around and intertwined his fingers with hers.
While looking at the red-tinted water that dripped from their hands, (Y/N) couldn’t help but wonder: is this really what love meant?

I am not sure if I've seen much talk about this but it's something I can't stop thinking about. The fight scene between Mando and Moff Gideon with the darksaber and the beskar spear.
Tumblr media
I had made this gif of it back when the episode aired and what I noticed was how much people loved it just not for the same reasons I loved it.
It's an extremely extra move of him to make. It's clumsy foot work. Then after he kicks it he goes up against the darksaber throwing the spear with his arm twisted backwards. It just has me confused as to why the show decided on this?
Leading up to this all the other choreography with the other characters was amazing. Ahsoka and Bobas fight scenes especially stand out to me as being lovely. Even Luke's entrance gave me shivers.
It had me wonder if it was purposeful. Maybe he hasn't quite gotten used to the spear yet?? Or maybe Mando just isn't a skilled fighter in the traditional sense. Which honestly has me questioning what type of training he did get from the death watch splinter?
I went back and really looked at his fight scenes over the last two seasons. (Oh boy! How many times have I watched this show now? Too many times to count at this point.) It really stands out in the episode where he meets Bo-Katan. The entire time they are on the imperial ship he's just stumbling behind them. They just look so flawless in comparison. The one move he does end up making is the slightly embarrassing suicide run down the hallway. In my opinion, not his finest moment.
He has a real do whatever will get the job done in that moment mentality. In that scene and throughout the two seasons. When he's trying to save his own ass, securing a bounty, or saving Grogu. And if all else fails he quite literally just throws himself at the problem. When in doubt use beskar! (That’s how the saying goes right?!) The amount of times he just uses himself as a shield. Or all the times he uses his head. Beskar or not that can't be good for the ol' noggin.
I don't want anyone thinking I'm trying to make Mando out as incompetent. He clearly knows what he's doing. It makes me giggle in joy because this is the renowned bounty hunter. Feared by so many. Just him stepping into a room makes the people he's crossed paths with before quake.
He does in fact get the job DONE.
The same man who continuously gets thrown around like a ragdoll for most of the show. He's scrappy and I love it.
In some sorta way it's relatable. He is just a dude trying to do his best with what he's got. He never goes out of his way to try and be the best or master the art of fighting. Similar mentality that he shows by avoiding main plots like the plague and trying side quest his way through life. With just enough street skills and stubborn persistence to survive. That seems enough for him.
I'm really hoping this is something that the show will have his character grow subtly underneath all the main plots that they've got for the future seasons.
Was this long and rambly? I apologize. I just couldn't stop thinking about it so I decided to annoy you all with my thoughts. Anyways just some of my own personal observations on the show. I am not in any kind of way trying to say this is fact and if some of you think differently I'm 100% chill with that (you're probably right). At the end of the day we're here on this tag because we all love The Mandalorian and that's what matters.
I was totally going to add more gifs to help solidify my points buuuuut I got lazy lol

Nemesis - Part 7
At what point does a story go from being a Whump fic to being a weird mystery short story? I’m not sure, but I really feel like I’m toeing the line here. For more directly whumpy stuff, check out my Villainsicle or Signal series ^^
Votes were tied this time around, and I ended up making the final call, as I felt there was better argument given for it. Thus, Villain chooses option B: Don’t trust Hero, attempt escape. Thanks to everyone who voted!
CW//Drugged whumpee, confusion, panic, injuries, ransom notes, kidnapping, death threats, restraints
There was a haunting quality to Villain’s eyes, in the way they looked at Hero.
For the briefest moment, Hero felt to be something beyond reality-- a deity, a ghost, something that should not have been able to be seen. That was the way in which Villain regarded them.
Their hand gripped Hero’s, fingers grasping as tightly as they could manage which trembling and twitching.
Hero felt that they should say something, do something. Some kind of witty one-liner, some great speech. But they found their mouth devoid of words, and thus, they only smiled.
Villain frowned. Their eyes widened.
The brief moment of peace the two had shared was shattered in a moment. For a second, Villain seemed to forget how their limbs were meant to work, instead flailing across the closet, slamming their back into the wall. Shaking hands struggled with the knot behind their head, finally succeeding in freeing it and tossing the gag across the room.
They panted, wide, unblinking eyes staring at the floor. Mouth the slightest bit open-- lip trembling.
Before Hero could think, however, they were already moving again. Terrified gaze lifting to Hero, before their body seemed to respond, moving into the best defensive pose they could manage, fingers digging into the blankets below. Shaking lips pulling back to reveal bared teeth, brows furrowing.
“You... Hero...”
“Yes.” Hero did their best to keep their voice calm, level, hoping to inspire the same within Villain. “Yes, it’s me.”
Their attempts were in vain. Villain’s voice shook terribly:
“Why are you doing this to me? I- I thought we- I thought you- I want to go home!”
Hero could feel their own throat quaking, though for an entirely different reason.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay, it’s-”
“I didn’t want to see the stupid fucking thing anyways! I wasn’t even looking for it! I just want to go, please, please, I need to go! I want to go home!”
There was no time for Hero to answer with words-- with a speed that startled them enough to knock them onto their back, Villain launched themself from the closet, struggling to their feet and lurching unsteadily across the dorm.
Hero leapt to their feet in turn, attempting to chase their nemesis, only for their path to be cut off by a flying Teammate. Their faster cohort landed atop the fleeing Villain, pinning their shoulders down and quickly restraining their legs in similar fashion. At the same time, Villain cried out, pleas muffled by the carpet.
It was a pathetic display, enough so that Hero felt a pit form in their stomach. But Villain wasn’t in their right mind-- this was for their own good.
That was what Head Doctor had thought, too.
But this was different.
They expected Villain’s struggles to quickly die down, but such did not come to pass; instead, their kicking grew more and more panicked, more desperate, as though they were drowning. A desperate search for air.
Physicality-wise, there was no contest between Villain and Teammate, sedatives or not. They had no difficulty holding them down. Hero began to inch closer, ready to once again attempt to calm their nemesis into sleep. That was what they needed, right now. Rest. Recovery.
Unfortunately, Villain did not seem to agree.
Hero only made it a step or two before Teammate was screaming-- a sound accompanied by their body, flung across the room like a ragdoll, leaving behind a sizable hole in the plaster.
The pit in Hero’s stomach quickly filled with a horrible chill.
How could they have forgot-
They had no time to finish their thought, the rain of telekinetically-thrown objects taking their attention instead. A mug struck them in the back, breaking and erupting a hiss from their lips. They shook their head, trying to bring their attention back, but Villain already had all the distraction they needed.
After a few flailing attempts, they got their feet underneath them, bolting forth. Hero lurched after them, but their nemesis had too much of a head start. They were too fast, too scared, too goddamn clever.
Villain flung open the door, skidding to a stop with such force that they fell backwards.
“Hero?”
Hero’s heart sunk. Could Leader have picked a worse time to come back?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 
Leader was not the type of person for hugs. They were far too prickly for that, refusing to let anyone get too close, in the physical sense or otherwise.
This, however, must have been an exception. Hero could hardly breathe as their team leader wrapped their arms around them, practically squeezing the air out of them. From behind the display, Teammate’s jaw dropped.
“You have no idea how worried I was!” Leader spoke, exasperated, not releasing their grip.
“Worried?” Hero gasped. “I can’t- I can’t breathe.”
“Sorry, sorry.” Leader released them, backing off a step.
Hero made a quick check of the office; Leader’s office, where they had ushered them to. Specifically, they glanced to the corner where Villain sat. After their telekinetic stunt, they had quickly tired out, leaving them covered with a blanket and muttering, leaned up against the wall.
“Of course I was worried about you!” Leader continued. “We all were. Everyone is out there, right now, looking for you. You could have called, or texted, or anything! Oh, god, Hero, I was worried sick.”
“L-Looking for me?” Hero questioned again. “I was only gone one night.”
“And thank goodness for that.” Leader moved to their desk. “Let’s take a seat. I think you have a lot to explain.”
They nodded, and sat opposite the team leader. Teammate quickly joined them in an adjacent seat.
“So...” Leader hummed. “Whenever you’re ready.”
“What?”
“I want to know what happened.”
“I just left for the night.” Hero raised a brow. “I do that all the time.”
Leader blinked.
“Well, usually, you aren’t being kidnapped?”
“Kidnapped?”
“You weren’t?”
“No? Why would I be kidnapped? What- Leader, what is going on with you?”
“What is going on with you?”
“I wasn’t kidnapped.”
Another confused blink. Leader dug in a pocket, producing their phone. They tapped around it a moment before sliding it across the desk.
Hero picked it up. A picture. A screenshot of an email.
An email without a sender.
“Dear Citizens,
I must say, it is impressive how dedicated your protectors were at their attempts at so-called ‘reform.’ More impressively, they managed to hold me for a year. I sure hope you have not forgotten me.
But, citizens, at long last, I am returning to be among you. And I wanted to have a welcome party, of sorts. Call it a game of hide and seek, if you will. Except, you will not only be looking for me.
One of your protectors, the one by the name of Hero, is currently in my custody. They are safe, for now, but whether or not they stay that way is entirely up to you.
You say you have eyes on the whole city? Let’s test that.
Of course, I want to give you a fair chance, just as you gave me. You kept me contained for 375 days. Thus, you have exactly 375 minutes to save your Hero. That’s just over six hours.
Fair, isn’t it? Just as fair as being locked up for a year of your life.
Your time starts now. I hope you will be quick, I have heard that drowning is a terrible way to die.
Sincerely, your dearest Villain”
Hero’s gritted teeth trembled.
“You escaped?” Leader guessed, taking their phone back.
“No.” Hero shook their head. “I was never kidnapped at all! Where is this from? This message?”
“It was sent out to every member of Organization. Just over... Just over 7 hours ago.”
Hero’s mouth gaped.
“You thought I was...”
“Dead, yes. They...” Leader’s gaze drifted to the corner, where Villain had begun to snore. “They didn’t write this, did they?”
“No. No, there’s no way.”
“How are you so sure?”
“They were with me the whole time, asleep.”
“They were with you?”
Hero nodded.
They wanted, so badly, to speak freely. To let spill every word they had been holding back, every detail of Villain’s captivity, of Head Doctor, of their rescue mission. But once they let that out of the bag, they couldn’t take it back. They knew that.
They had to wait. They had to be sure.
“What happened to them? Did they just, suddenly become your friend?”
“No. No, it’s not that. They’re not... not themself, right now.”
“You drugged them?”
“Well, it wasn’t me.”
Leader let out a pointed sigh.
“What are we going to do...” They placed their head in their hands. “Oh god, what are we going to do?”
“I-” Hero glanced again to their sleeping nemesis. “I assume they’ll be taken to the prison.”
“No.” Leader shook their head.
“No?”
“They’ll only go to the prison if we report this.”
Hero’s eyes widened. A look to Teammate revealed that their face held the same expression.
“You aren’t going to report this?”
Leader’s fingers drummed on their desk.
“Okay. Here, here’s what we’re going to do.” They breathed. “There’s no way we can hide you, and I don’t really see the point in it. I’ll tell everyone that you’re okay, that you escaped. As for Villain... We have a spare room.”
“I don’t understand.” Hero shook their head, dumbfounded. “We’re hiding Villain?”
“What, isn’t that what you wanted?”
“I mean, yes, but, I didn’t expect you to agree.”
Leader chewed the side of their cheek.
“Hero, I trust you. Teammate, you too. And Villain... I guess I don’t view them as a threat, at the very least. But beyond that? I don’t know who I can trust, right now. So we keep this between us. Until....”
“Until?”
“Until... I don’t know. Until I know what to do next.” They cast their gaze downwards. “Hero?”
“Mhm?”
“I knew. I knew Villain hadn’t kidnapped you.”
“I thought you said you thought I was dead?”
“I did. But not by Villain’s hand.”
“Then...”
Leader looked upwards, gaze seeming to stare through Hero. A somber gaze. An exhausted one.
“Hero, I talk to Director a lot. Never in person, never over the phone. But we write. We email, or, I mean, sometimes, they even send letters. They’re old-fashioned, like that.”
“What-”
“Let me finish. When you talk to someone that often, you get to know their style. The way they string their words together, the words they use. That email...” They bit their lip. “Villain did not write that email.”
“You thought that Director...”
Hero did not need to finish their sentence. Leader nodded, and they understood.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 
Whatever heating system controlled the floor, it must not have reached this room.
The thought came to Hero’s head as they wrapped a blanket around their shoulders, fighting back a shiver. They looked up, glad, at least, to see that Villain seemed to be comfortable in their pile of fabric. There were only so many blankets, and they needed them more.
The spare room was exactly as it sounded, an empty room without purpose. Barren of furniture, barren of everything except a thin carpet. And, now, a stake, hammered into the wall. Holding a chain that ended at Villain’s ankle.
The very thought of restraining them so made Hero feel awfully queasy, but out of everything, it was the only thing they could not argue Leader down from. Without knowledge of Villain’s current state, they still believed them to be dangerous.
Hero had been entrusted with ensuring that they stayed restrained. For a brief moment, they had considered an act of malicious compliance. Using a tiny, thin chain, or not connecting it to anything, or anything that would allow Villain to leave. To not truly chain them.
But... in some small part, they couldn’t help but agree with Leader. Villain was dangerous. Not because they wanted to be, but because they were scared. Confused. Awake.
Awake.
Villain was awake.
They raised their head, shifting the mountain of blankets in which they were wrapped. That confused, hazy look remained in their gaze for a moment-- before being replaced by another expression, one that made Hero’s heart skip a beat.
“Please!” The captive screamed. “Please! I’m trying, I’m trying, I want to go home. Please. Please don’t hurt me! No, no!”
The blankets around them restrained them for a minuscule moment, but they soon tore through the layers of fabric, throwing them about. 
The shackle stopped them quickly, sending them collapsing to hands and knees only a moment after they had managed to stand. they stayed like that, limbs shaking, fingertips growing blue from cold.
Holding them down would only terrify them more. Hero had learned that the hard way, and now Teammate had a nasty bruise to show for it.
No. Hero needed to do something they did not often do: They needed to be careful. Gentle.
Slowly, they crawled forward, stopping only next to their terrified nemesis. They placed a gentle hand on one of Villain’s, bringing it off the ground, encouraging them to sit down until they did so. Though their trembling was certainly derived from fear, they too seemed to be rapidly growing cold. Hero took one of the thicker blankets, draping it over their shoulders.
“Hey. Hey, Villain.”
“Please please please please.” They slurred under their breath.
“Villain? We’re friends now, okay? We’re friends.”
“No no no no no no.”
“You’re safe. You’re okay. You’re going to wake up, now. No one is going to make you go back to sleep. You’re waking up. It’s going to take a minute, okay? But I’ll be here the whole time.”
“Waking up...”
“Yeah. I know you’re confused right now, and scared. And that’s okay. But if you just relax, and let me help you, you’re going to be okay. You’re going to feel like yourself soon. It’s just going to take time. Until then, just let me take care of everything.”
“Take care of me...”
“Yeah. Yeah. How are you feeling? Do you want some water?”
Villain frowned.
“I lied...”
“What?”
“I lied. I lied. I lied. I am going to tell Hero. I lied.”
“Villain? Hey, hey. It’s okay. Look at me. Stay with me.”
“Director. Director. I know who you are. I lied. I am going to tell Hero.”
Hero gulped.
“I’m going to get you some water, Villain. Stay here, please. I’ll be right back.”
“Please please please please please please please ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ...”

Thanks so much for reading! Just like last time, there are two options along with every part of this story. Alongside each options is a question, so that you guys can give more specific suggestions if you so wish. The option that receives the most votes will be the choice that our Hero makes!
A.) Go right to the source. Confront Director - What should Hero’s plan be?
B.) It’s too risky. Talk to someone else. - Who should Hero speak to? (Hacker, Leader, another member of Organization, etc)

[Part Two]

Word Count: 3.3k
A/N: IM NOT EXCITED ABOUT HITOSHI YOU ARE. I am very excited about my favorite boi. I love this fictional man so much. I really hope you all enjoy, this first part is very different than most parts of the CLUMSY series. I hope you enjoy it regardless! (This has been updated on 4/22/21, on the fact that I realized going forward there would be too many plot holes, so I changed a few things regarding the parent situation, this will help me with future parts.) 
               “No one is going to even take you seriously as a hero! You would just waste your time if you tried out for the hero course at UA!” The bullies hissed at you as they passed you at your locker. You had considered potentially going for the entrance exam for UA, but with your quirk you were hesitant. Hearing all these other students reject the idea. You weren’t particularly popular in your school and it didn’t help that most of the other students looked down on you for your quirk. Being able to turn another person into a lifeless ragdoll wasn’t favored amongst others as they saw it as either useless or a villain's quirk. “She’d be good at capturing villains at best.” Another sneered. “Or heroes.” Laughed another.
Tears threatened to fall from your eyes when you heard, “Don’t you think it’s not very plus ultra of you all to be picking on someone for their quirk?”. You turned around to meet the violet eyes of one of your classmates, Shinsou Hitoshi. He had been another student who was rejected by most of the student population for his brain washing quirk. “Oh what a great pair! Two villains with useless quirks.” The first bully snarled at Hitoshi. “Be careful, man. You don’t want him activating his quirk on you.” The bully’s ally mentioned. Shinsou raised his eyebrow at them and they scattered away from the two of you. 
“You shouldn’t let others get to you so easily.” Shinsou sighed once the bullies were out of sight. You nodded at him before turning back towards your locker. “You know, when someone helps you, you usually say thank you.” He scoffed, shoving his hands into his pockets. “Or are you also afraid of me using my quirk on you?” He pushed, squinting his eyes at you. You turned back around with tears running down your cheeks. This took him by surprise. “Thank you.” You breathed as you attempted a fake smile. Something pulled at Hitoshi’s heartstrings that day the way you thanked him without worrying about him using his quirk against you. 
“Oh. Uh, y-yeah, you’re welcome.” He replied, rubbing the back of his neck nervously. “Let me repay you by getting you lunch.” You said, quickly finishing fumbling around in your locker and turning your attention his way once more. “You really don’t have to go through all that trouble. It was nothing, really.” He tried to coax, but you shook your head determined. “You helped me, let me repay you.” You said in a determined tone. He would never admit it out loud, but he was pretty sure right then and there is when he fell for you. 
You and Hitoshi’s relationship was easy. Well as easy as it was for two student’s who didn’t attend the same school. Hitoshi had wound up applying and getting into UA but ending up in the general studies course. When you found out and saw how dejected he felt, you tried to cheer him up. You were the one who encouraged him to work hard to get his place in the Hero Course. 
“You don’t understand, Y/N. The students in the hero course are on a whole different level.” He sighed to you. “And so are you, ‘Toshi! You are the hardest working person I know! You are going to be able to do anything if you put your mind to it!” You reassured him. The two of you were at the local park with his head in your lap. You were running your hands through his hair in attempts to calm the anxious lavender haired boy. “You saw what happened in the sports festival. I know you watched it. I am nowhere near their level of power.” He sighed in defeat, turning his head away from you. 
“Then get to their level! I’ve seen some of the other students in that class, and you surpass them without even batting an eyelash. What’s the one with the purple balls stuck to his head? From what I’ve heard he’s not as strong as you are in the slightest. Push past your limits and impress the teachers! Get them to notice you!” You exclaimed; eyes filled to the brim with determination. He turned his head back over to look at you and when he saw how serious you were, his expression softened. “You’re right, like always. I just get in my head sometimes.” He admitted, humming when you went back to running your hands through his hair. “And I’m always here to ground you when you need it.” You said, expressing your feelings towards the boy. 
“I don’t know how I got so lucky to have you in my life, doll. I will always be so baffled I have you, but god am I glad I do.” He said, averting his gaze away from you. You could see the small blush dawning his cheeks and your cheeks matched his. It wasn’t rare for Hitoshi to show his affection for you, but when you two had small intimate moments like this, it made all of the struggles worth it.
You were sitting in your normal spot in the park where you usually met up with your boyfriend. Your school tended to let out a bit earlier than Hitoshi’s did. This was routine for the two of you at this point. Every Tuesday, Thursday and occasionally the weekends, the two of you met up to talk about your days in person. Flipping through one of your notebooks, you hadn’t heard Shinsou approach the bench. He snatched the notebook out of your hands and tossed it to the side. “Hey! Hitoshi!” You shouted in protest but were immediately thrown off guard by him picking you up and spinning you around. A squeak left your mouth at the action.
When he put you down, he was all smiles. “What has gotten into you, ‘Toshi?” You asked, smiling back at him. You couldn’t help it; his genuine smile was so contagious. You loved seeing him this happy, as he always looked so tired and stressed. “One of the teacher’s at UA is going to take me on as my mentor! He’s going to train me! He’s a bit of a stricter and rougher instructor than the rest, but he said if I worked hard enough I could potentially get into the hero course!” He exclaimed, barely holding in his excitement. Your mouth dropped open in surprise, but you squealed in equal excitement.
“Hitoshi Shinsou! That’s amazing!” You cheered, smothering the boy in kisses all over his face. He erupted in hearty laughter, pushing you playfully off of him. Both of you were beaming excitedly at each other. “Thank you for always believing in me, Y/N.” He said, pressing his forehead against yours. You could feel the appreciation oozing from him. You couldn’t wipe the smile off your face even if you tried. “No need to thank me, silly. That’s what I’m here for. To cheer you on and make sure you do your best!” You replied, nuzzling your nose against his. He scrunched his nose in response before placing a soft kiss to your forehead.
“I am worried though.” He stated, his tone dropping. You looked at him with an eyebrow raised, making you worried in less than a second. “Why are you worried? You’re going to do great!” You coaxed, sitting back down on the park bench before tugging on Hitoshi’s jacket sleeve to follow in your suite. “That’s not what worries me, doll. I’ll have to do a lot of after school training with my mentor. That means I won’t be able to come see you during the week anymore.” He said, shifting his gaze away from you. Shinsou was half expecting you to leave him with that development.
“Then I’ll just see you when you are available, dummy. I want you to be able to pursue this dream you’ve been chasing! I’ll be here when you need or want me to be! I’m always going to be in your corner. No matter what.” You reassured him, flicking his forehead playfully. “Hey!” He scoffed when he felt you flick him. His eyes turned from serious to playful in a moment’s notice. “You are going to regret that, doll.” He hissed; his tone filled with mischief. He pulled you close to him, tickling your sides mercilessly. You squealed and tried to break out of his grip, but he was much stronger than you were. 
“St-STOP. HITOSHI STOP IM SORRY.” You manage to squeal out in between your fits of giggles. His attack at your sides stopped momentarily, while smiling at you adoringly. “It’ll be a lot worse if you do that again.” He whispered in your ear. You separated yourself from him, fake huffing in annoyance. “You can be such a pain, ‘Toshi.” You grumbled. He put a finger under your chin and turned your head to face him. His face was mere inches from your own; making your face flush a deep red. “I can make it up to you.” He whispered, his lips ghosting inches from your own. You nodded your head with hooded eyelids and let his lips capture yours without another word. 
You melt into his affection, sighing into the kiss. Your hand entangled into his messy hair quickly, and his hand moved from your chin over to your jaw; his thumb rubbing against your jawline softly. As quickly as he initiated the kiss, he pulled away, making you groan. “I knew you liked me.” He teased with that shit eating grin of his. You frowned at him and huffed in annoyance. He tenderly kissed you on the cheek before placing his forehead onto your own. “I love you, Y/N. Thank you for always being here for me.” He whispered.
You had to stop your mouth from falling open. The two of you had only been dating for over a year, but Hitoshi never uttered those three words to you. Your heart swelled and melted all in the same breath. You couldn’t stop the happy tears from falling down your cheeks and the smile from spreading across your face. “I love you too, Hitoshi.” You uttered, before giving him a quick peck on the lips. Hitoshi felt like he was on cloud nine, having you by his side and being told he would be training with one of his favorite pro-heroes.
He walked you to the train station, holding onto your hand tightly as if afraid to let it go. When your train was announced to be stopping into the station soon, you turned towards your boyfriend with a smile. He, on the other hand, was not smiling. A frown was embedded on his face, thinking about how little he was going to see you now. “Don’t frown at me! I’ll see you on weekends if you’re available. Plus we will still text and call each other right?” You asked, hope still gleaming in those beautiful eyes of yours. He forced out a laugh and nodded his head at your statement. “Please text me when you get home. I want to make sure you get back safe.” He muttered, tugging you into his embrace.
You hugged him back, nodding and inhaled his cologne one last time. “I better get going before I miss my train and make my mother anxious of getting home too late.” You mentioned, looking up one more time at your boyfriend. “I love you, get home safe.” He said, placing one more final kiss to your forehead. “I love you too. Let me know when you get back to your dorms, okay?” You replied. He nodded his head and watched you get onto your train. A sigh left his lips watching the train depart, only because he was not sure how everything was going to turn out. If you would be patient with him while he trained to become a hero to protect you.
You arrived home, not too late to make your mother worry, but to at least raise some questions. “You stay after school again?” Your mother asked from the living room, making you stop in your tracks from walking towards your room. You had hoped she had gone to bed, but you should know better than that. She liked to make sure you got home safe and sound. “I met up with Hitoshi at the park again. Sorry to make you worry, mom.” You told her, heading over to give her a kiss on the cheek. “Well your father called; you may want to give him a call before he goes on second duty, or worse, sends out a search party for you.” She mentioned as you walked up towards your room. You nodded your head, rolling your eyes at your father’s ridiculous nature, and quickly ran up the stairs to your room.
Putting your school bag down, you quickly pulled your phone out to video call your father. Within mere seconds he had answered your call. “Hi Papa.” You greeted with a smile. “I called your mother about an hour ago, where were you?” He immediately started to question you, making you roll your eyes. “I already told mom I was meeting with Hitoshi today. Did she not mention it on the phone?” I asked, seeing the annoyance immediately come onto his face.  “When are you going to bring that boy around for me to meet him? Your mother has also been itching to meet this boyfriend of yours. You’ve been seeing him for quite some time now.” Your father mentioned, his eyes looking more tired than usual. He had been working overtime with all the villain activities going on, but he always made time for you.
You had lived separately from your father due to his work needing him on call at all hours of the day. Your parents weren’t married, nor were they still dating but they were cordial for your sake. They had made arrangements where you could live comfortably if you so choose, but over the years you had seemed to be with your mother more. You occasionally saw your father on the weekends when he wasn’t too busy, but for the most part you spoke to your father either by video call or by text messages. 
“I don’t know dad; I don’t want him to get freaked out. Plus, you know you can be a bit on the intimidating side.” You whispered, making a chuckle escape his lips. “Maybe that’s a good reason to bring him around. He may need a good scaring.” Your father pointed out, making you roll your eyes. “I just worry about you; I want you to be taken care of no matter what. No stupid boy is going to hurt my precious daughter. Especially one that avoids his girlfriend’s family.” He continued. “He’s not scared of meeting you, he’s offered plenty of times. I just don’t want him to feel pressured. Especially by my big scary father.” You joked, sticking your tongue out playfully. 
“Well I’d like to meet him one day, Y/N. I don’t like the thought of you being out with some stranger. I want to know you are with someone who can protect you.” Your father sighed, putting the book he was reading down. “He can, I promise. He took care of those bullies for me when I was in middle school.” You pointed out with a smile. You noticed a notification pop onto your screen to see Hitoshi messaged you when he got back to the dorms at UA, and you quickly let him know you just arrived back at home yourself. “Plus, I wasn’t expecting you to call tonight. Don’t you have a shift to be at?” You questioned your dad. 
“Yes, but I wanted to make sure you got home safely. I know Tuesdays and Thursdays are your days you meet up with this mysterious boyfriend of yours.” Your father said before standing up to put his coat on. This made you puff your cheeks out, he had known where you were, but still decided to make a big deal of it. “You know what he looks like dad.” You scoffed and shook your head at his ridiculousness. “That’s if he’s real.” He countered, the usual banter the two of you shared. “You’ve also seen pictures with me and him together. You told me to take a selfie with him one day and you swore I pulled a random boy off the street.” You countered back. A smile was etched on your face. You loved the playful banter you and your father had with each other.
“However, he got accepted into this really cool program and now he’s going to be a bit preoccupied during the week. So I should be home during the week unless I text you otherwise.” You admitted as your father got ready for his shift. While you might not have seen your father a lot in person, you definitely favored him over your mother. You might not have looked a lot like him, or acted as aloof as he did, but your relationship couldn’t have been any stronger. 
“I swear if he hurts you, I will find out where he lives, and I will hurt him way worse than he could ever hurt you.” Your father immediately responded. “He’s not going to hurt me, papa. He’s just chasing after a life goal, and I don’t want to hold him back! I also heard his mentor is really strict so I’m sure he’s going to need lots of rest.” You confirmed, trying to coax your father into calming down. He stared at you for a moment before relaxing his stern gaze. “My warning still stands, so you better tell that boy to treat you right before I end all of his life goals.” He threatened. You rolled your eyes and blew him a kiss. 
“Don’t work too hard, I’ll see you tomorrow for dinner.” You told him and he nodded his head before saying his goodbyes. Not longer after that you laid down on your bed. “I’m really excited to see you succeed, ‘Toshi.” You texted him. Your phone rang almost immediately after you sent him the text, seeing his face pop up on your screen. A smile spread across your lips as you saw your sleepy boyfriend laying in his bed. “Can’t sleep?” You asked, snuggling into your blankets. He shook his head no. “Too excited, but I know training starts tomorrow so I should get some rest.” He muttered, almost sighing after his statement. 
“I wish I could be there to lull you to sleep with cuddles.” You mutter. “Me too, doll.” He replied sleepily. “My father is going to fight you by the way.” You mentioned, making him look up at you with a questioning look on his face. “He’s being overdramatic like usual. He’s just convinced you're not real because you haven’t met him.” You said with a yawn. “I’ve offered to come over multiple times.” He said with an annoyed look on his face, as if you were blaming him. “No I know! I just know how focused on your studies you get, and now especially with this mentor opportunity!” You frantically said. “Maybe once you get into the hero program we can go out and celebrate and I’ll bring him along.” You offered. 
“I think I’d like that a lot.” He smiled. He enjoyed the fact that you believed in him so much and that you were so convinced he was going to get into the hero course. “Can we fall asleep on the phone together?” You asked shyly, nuzzling yourself further into your blankets. “I don’t know, will your father get upset with me for that?” He teased. A huff left your lips and he chuckled. “Fine, fine.” He gave in, seeing how cute your sleepy pout was. Your pout was immediately replaced with a smile that made his heart melt. 
The two of you continued to casually pillow talk until he heard your soft snores on the other end of the line. He looked up from his textbook to see you softly sleeping. A look of adoration dawned his face as he saw you in your most vulnerable state. The smile was etched on his face as he went back to studying his textbook, occasionally checking on you to make sure you were still sound asleep. Until he fell asleep himself, wishing you a goodnight before nodding off to sleep.

Well since you asked me this...
🗝 Cas, what's something you would never tell Star? And what do you hate most about her?
Wow, trying to flip things on me huh? Well you are gonna be thrown around like a ragdoll on national whump day!
~~~
Cas frowns at the question you asked and he tilts his head, trying to wrap his brain around it. "What I hate... about me Star? Me wonderful shinin' light?" He asks, making sure you were both on the same page. After you nod ecstatically because you are an evil person and want to see the man break under the pressure, he rubs the wrist where the barcode used to be. After thinking for what seemed like hours, his melodic voice rang throughout the room.
"The thing I hate the most about me Star, about me wife, is she never gives herself enough credit and love," he answers, his eyes darting up to meet yours. Your confusion makes him clear his throat and continue on with his reply. "What I mean is she never thinks herself to be beautiful or gorgeous... never smart or wise... never a blessin' and the most amazin' wife and best friend I could ask for. No, she thinks the worst about herself and it kills me," he whispers, a hand over his heart, the ring she had bestowed upon long ago visible to your eye.
Tears build up at his eyes and he bites his lip, staring anywhere else but your eyes. "She's wrong. She is so wrong, me wife. She doesn't see what I see in her. What I have always seen since the beginnin'."
Upon your beckoning to continue, he sits up and sniffles, looking at the picture of their wedding day. "No star is as-" he waves his hand, searchingfor the word- "radiant and as wondrous as me Star. She may not think she is the most beautiful, but I will always tell her she is. She may not think she is smart, but she is who I go to every time I get confused about somethin'. She's... She's the greatest person to have come into me life and give me some meanin', ye know? Ye don't know her like how I do. What ye see as wild and untamed is free and happy to me. What she thinks of herself is the opposite of what I see her as."
"Now, she may never see herself as anythin' other than the most horrible stuff in the world, but no matter what, she stole me heart and she owns it. She really does. No matter what she says about herself, I will forever cherish her as me wonderful Star and how much she has made me life better. I'd never tell her how much it hurts me to know she hates herself so much."
He hears the faintest knock on the door and he stands up, smiling so brightly at the door while wiping his eyes. "That's me wife. I think I'm goin' to go love on her now."

Forgotten
No one can remember the last time the Fae were seen in Middle Earth. They were once revered as the most powerful of the races with mystical powers, unlike any in the world has seen. Sauron knew the only way for his plans to succeed was to get rid of them, so he rid the world of them. However, one day you fall into the company of Thorin Oakenshield.
Coincidence or fate? No one knows...
As the last of the Fae you are unsure what to do... All you really want is a bath...
... And the attention of a certain golden-haired Prince... What's a girl to do?
Pairing: Fili x Reader

Chapter 1: Of Falls and Fairy Circles
The market is bustling as you dance your way through the stalls full of art and jewelry. Saturday at the market is easily your favorite day of week especially after you just got paid. Suddenly, a stone on one of the nearby tables catches your eye. It seems to almost have a light shining from it taking your breath away. It is clear with a bright blue light that just seems to shine among all the moonstones and labradorites. You hesitantly pick it up from the stall knowing that it is way out of budget and yet the price tag says $60. You blink in confusion at the piece before your hand secures, almost greedily, around the pendant as you call the owner over.
“I’ll take this one,” you say, pulling out your wallet.
“Sure! What length chain would you like?” she asks briskly, busy with the plethora of customers surrounding you both.
You gaze at the pendant thoughtfully, the shard looking glamorously delicate and intricate, “thirty-six.”
She nods and quickly takes payment, but you stop her from wrapping it up, “I’ll just wear it out, thanks.” She hands it over with a friendly enough smile before she is pulled away by another buyer.
You spend the rest of the afternoon meandering around the stalls of the market. Artisans are selling their crafts and you admire each of them happily. When you are finished you buy a meal from a local food truck and sit happily at one of the picnic tables scattered about the outside of the market. Once finished you throw back the last of your drink before you dispose of the trash and make your way back towards your apartment.
The evening air is brisk and warm with a breeze as the sunset paints the sky various colors of pinks and oranges. It’s only when you feel the telltale drop of rain that you become slightly concerned. You quicken your pace, annoyed you hadn’t driven to the market even though it wasn’t far from your home. As the rain picks up you begin to rush down the street as the once peaceful evening is ravaged by black clouds and lightning. Your apartment is almost in sight as you rush across the bridge, the only thing between you and home.
With a jolt of lightning and a crack of thunder, the bolt catches a nearby streetlamp. You scream as you are thrown back and away. Suddenly water is all around you, a vortex of wind and rain. The only time you seem able to see is when the sky is illuminated by the ominous bolts of lightning.
You scream for help, disoriented, and confused about what is happening, how did you get into the water?
Now it is time to choose…
The light and airy voice startle you. You have no idea how you could hear it over the raging storm. Suddenly all is quiet, almost deafeningly so after the roar of the storm raging around you.
You must choose between life…
And death…
“What does that mean?!” you yell into nothing, to no one.
Living means accepting your destiny… yourself…
“And what does dying mean?!” you ask in panic.
Failure…
Now choose…
The voice echoing in your head is silent, leaving you with your thoughts. You are beyond confused about everything, but what are you supposed to do? You don’t want to die!
“I want to choose life!”
Your choice has been made then? Just know you will never be able to return here…
“What do you mean?”
You have chosen destiny…
You scream as you are abruptly thrown back into the storm and tossed about like a ragdoll in the washing machine. When just as abruptly as it all started… it stops.
Opening your eyes you gaze around you at the lush forest before looking down on the bed of flowers you’ve landed in encircled by mushrooms. The earth is soft and damp beneath you, the moss and foliage having softened your fall. The sky's the deep blue of the evening, you notice the way that the colors of twilight are just beginning to paint the sky. Sitting up you vaguely wonder how you got here, but you can remember nothing. Panic takes over as you search the area around you for anything or anyone. You find nothing. The only thing that floats across your mind is a singular name: Cwen.
You sit up and feel your body scream as you do, with a groan you hold your aching head. Glancing down at your clothes you notice the dress you are wearing, it’s long and a deep black. It’s now stained and ripped in multiple places. You stumble to your feet and after a moment you finally gain your footing as you brace yourself against a tree. You lean your pounding forehead against the rough bark and gasp as whispers tickle your ears. You pull away and look around, but hear nothing and see no one. You tense as your instincts begin to truly kick in. You have no idea who you are or where you are and you’re scared.
There is a crack from behind you causing you to whip around in enough time to see the ugliest creature you’ve ever seen in your life. It’s like a cross between a wolf and a hyena, with a scream you stumble back and away from it. The creature begins to stalk towards you, haunches raised in a low snarl, and with each step, you feel your fear grow. You are backed up against the tree and as you press against it you hear the whispers again. You can’t understand them, but honestly, you have more important things to worry about.
As the creature leaps towards you you scream and hold your arms up, if not to shield yourself, to at least not watch it take a bite out of your face. It never comes though, in its stead is a low whine and groan.
Hesitantly, you lower your arms and open your eyes to see the creature suspended in midair impaled on a branch from the very tree you are leaning against. The branch had gone down the creature’s throat, spearing it and killing it instantly. You’re too terrified to scream as you turn away from the horrid sight and lose your dinner all onto the ground. When you have gained enough wits about you, you run.
You don’t look where you are going as you make a mad dash through the forest, not that it would matter anyway. The only thing on your mind is sheer terror as you just run. Before you know it night has fallen and you can only slump against a fallen log as you try to catch your breath. Now too exhausted to do anything other than sit and think you regard the quickly darkening forest around you and another kind of fear sets in. You curl yourself up into a ball and ponder your options. You could either try to find a place to stay for the night or some civilization and pray that no one will try to murder you, or you could stay where you are and hope that nothing finds you and tries to murder you. Either way, you really hope you don’t get murdered tonight.
With a resigned sigh, realizing that you are very far from where you once were and if anyone is looking for you it would have been best to stay there. However, you know you have a better chance of potentially being able to find light in the dark and hope that you could be led to a road or a city. Anything.
Your memories are slowly coming back, although nothing concrete yet. You remember concepts but you can’t recall a single person, even though you know you know people. No family. No friends. You don’t remember your home and you can’t recall a singular memory of your life.
You have no idea how long you’ve been walking when you see it in the distance, a fire! You quickly make your way through the forest and you stumble across a campsite. The fire is still roaring in the pit, there are what look to be crudely made sleeping bags and various other packs and supplies scattered about as if the owners will be back any moment now. The smell of food is coming from a pot over the fire and you approach it to see stew bubbling. You glance around and call out a few times wondering if anyone is around and if they would answer. When no one approaches or answers you feel a bit like Goldielocks as you take a wooden bowl and scoop some of the stew into it. You have no idea when you last ate, but after running through the forest for hours being scared out of your mind, food sounds delightful and surely no one would mind if you ate some. After all, there looks to be plenty…
You plop yourself down on a log near the fire to keep the chill of the cool night air at bay. The dress you are wearing is not meant to keep you warm on such a cold night. Why are you wearing something so unsuitable for the weather anyway? You wonder this as you eat the stew the happiest that you’ve been since this madness started.
Glancing into the darkness you can make out yells in the distance. Happy that there are people around, you get up off of the log before you take off into the bushes. You aren’t thinking as you see the light of a campfire in the distance and you rush towards it. ‘People!’ you think in relief. However, the minute you step into the clearing you realize you’ve made a grave mistake.
“Oh? Wat do we ‘ave ‘ere?” questions a giant thing that just so happens to be much uglier and smellier than the creature from before, all with gray skin and a large gut.
“Looks like a ‘uman wooman…” says one with a high nasally voice.
“It’s been soo l-ong since we’ve ‘ad wooman! Soo much more fatty than man!” Delights a third.
Wait… did this… thing just call you fat?
“Did you just-?” you start in indignation when one of them takes a step forward with the intent of scooping you up. You jump out of the way and hear a roar of male voices. Glance at the spit and then at a pen in the corner you notice a bunch of men being held hostage by the things before you.  
“Why yoo lit-tle!” exclaims the one that missed.
“Oi! Leave the lass alone!” Yells a gruff voice, he is joined by a chorus of gruff masculine voices.
“No shame!!”
“Pick on someone your own size!”
The deep gruff voices of the men around you at least prove to you that they are decent people. However, you don’t have time to ponder too much about it as you jump and tumble about the camp, all while attempting to keep your dress down. Vaguely you hope none of the men saw your bike shorts. Ok so it really wouldn’t matter, but it kills the illusion.
“Got ya now!” yells one as you are cornered back against the trunk of a tree. You throw your arms up and suddenly there is silence.
“Oi! No fair!” yells the nasally one.
You slowly open your eyes and lower your arms only to see the things blinking at you through thick branches of the tree you're against. The branches now protecting you are woven together creating a barrier between you and your would-be captors.
“Enough of this!” yells the one who seems to be the ring leader as he stomps forward and pushes another out of the way. He takes hold of the branches and begins to attempt to pry them apart. You can hear the men in the background yelling again about them leaving you alone after a brief stunned silence. You feel your fear beginning to creep up on you again as the branches begin to give way to the strength of the beast before you. The popping and cracking of splintering wood assault your ears. Your breathing quickens and the only thing you can think of is how you wished they would just leave you alone!
“Hey! Stop!” yells one of them.
“Let go!” yells another.
“Oi wat’s-” the thing is cut off as vines snake up its body and wrap itself around the creatures. You watch in confused horror as the things all struggle with the vines still wrapping itself dutifully around them. No matter how much they struggle they are no match for the creeping vines entangling then.
You see a flash of something in the distance before you hear the words, “By the dawn!” and a deafening crack rings in the air. You watch as the morning sun hits the creatures and moments later they are stone wrapped in vines. You blink in confusion as the man makes his way into the clearing. He checks on the men first, cutting the ties on one of the bags they are in before he makes his way over to you.
“My dear… are you alright?” You look up through the broken branches into the kind eyes of the man now kneeling in the brush before you. Perhaps it was the events you just witnessed or the stress of the night, or perhaps it was just that grandfatherly kindness that he regards you with, but at that moment you just shake your head and begin to sob.
“Oh, come now child…” he says kindly, as he carefully helps you from the branches and pulls you further into the clearing, “there, there… you’ll be alright…”
“Is she hurt?” asks a male voice from behind the old man before you.
“Aye! Get the lass something decent to wear! She must be freezing!”
“Is she a witch?” questions another with fear in his voice.
Startled out of your emotional breakdown by the men now standing all around you you stumble back.
“Hold steady, lass!” says one who reaches out and catches you just before you hit the ground. In that moment, you may as well be in an old Hollywood movie. You are suddenly gazing up into a pair of golden brown eyes as the sun paints a halo of warm light around his blonde hair. You blink up at him in confusion before he rights you and you, much to your surprise, gaze down at him. Wait… down?
You look about at the men surrounding you and you are taller than all of them, except for the old man who towers above you. Not that you are not exactly tall, to begin with, but this is unexpected.
Before you can say or do anything a heavy piece of fabric that smells distinctly like man and earth is draped around your shoulders. Another short man with a bright smile and deep blue eyes is on your other side helping to steady you, “You alright there?”
“Umm… thank you… I don’t know…” you say with uncertainty.
“Are you hurt then?” questions another in concern shoving the blue-eyed man away.
“The lass is hurt!” shouts another with an odd-shaped hat.
“Make way! Make way!” yells yet another, and at this point, you are wondering how many there are.
A man with a trumpet to his ear is thrust through the crowd towards you. He grumbles to himself about the rough treatment before he straightens himself up and regards you professionally.
“You hurt, lass?” He asks gruffly.
“Umm… maybe?” You answer in confusion.
“Maybe?” he asks in the same gruff tone as before.
“Well everything kind of hurts, but it's more of an ache from… everything…” you gesture unhelpfully around you just hoping he would get the idea.
“Aye… Sounds like ye just need some rest is all. Right as rain soon!” He nods as if that solves all of life’s problems before he makes his way back through the group to complete whatever it was he was doing before he was shoved so unceremoniously through the crowd.
“You’re not hurt then?” Asks the dark-haired blue-eyed man from before giving you what could only be described as puppy dog eyes.
“I don’t think so…” you murmur softly as you lean back against the claw-like branches that had acted as your shield.
“So what exactly did you… uh… do back there?” Questions the man with the funny hat indicating the branches behind you.
“Umm well… I don’t know…”
“Are ye a witch?” Questions one with hair that vaguely resembles a star.
“I don’t think so…”
“You don’t think so? Ye either are! Or you’re not!” He exclaims.
“Aye, now lad! Just calm down!” Says the one with the weird hat.
While the two argue about whether you are or are not a witch, the golden-haired man from before approaches you quietly.
“Are you alright milady?” He asks with a kind smile.
You sigh softly, “I think so…” you’re flustered from your lack of memory.
“What did you mean when you said you didn’t think you were a witch? Are you unsure?” He asks kindly.
“I don’t… remember anything… so I don’t know what I am… I don’t remember ever doing anything like that, and you would think I would if I did… right?” You say uncertainty and fear clouding your voice.
“If I didn’t know any better…” begins the old man, “I would say that’s Fae magic.” His eyes twinkle as he catches yours. As if he is a grandfather with a secret stash of treats and he’s about to tell you where he hides the candy after dinner.
“Impossible!” Yells a deep voice from behind everyone. This one is majestic with graying hair and a beard shorter than many of the others. He’s also taller than most of them, even if you still have about 2 to 3 inches on him.
“The Fae haven’t been seen in Middle Earth for ages, you know that better than anyone Gandalf!” He continues.
“Yes, but that,” he says indicating the claw-like branches you are leaning against and the vines wrapping around the now stone things, “is distinctly Fae magic. And as the only one here who has seen Fae magic, I think I would know what it looks like!”
He ends on a very decisive note and his eyes are daring anyone to oppose him.
The majestic one narrows his eyes as he regards you, “you can’t remember anything? Nothing at all?”
“About myself? Not really…”
“What about your name?” Questions the dark-haired one from before. He seems younger than most of the men surrounding you, perhaps it’s his lack of beard? Or perhaps it’s their very imposing beards that make them seem older than they are? Honestly, you’re just confused.
“Umm the only name I remember is Cwen, I don’t even know if it’s mine.”
“Ye don’t know?” Asks the one with the odd hat.
“It doesn’t… feel right,” you explain and he seems to understand if the nod of his head is any indication. The flaps on this hat bounce up and down with the motion.
“We should take her to Rivendell,” the old man now known as Gandalf says.
“We aren’t going anywhere near those damn elves…” growls the majestic one.
“Elrond would know what to do, perhaps even help her with her… abilities…” argues Gandalf.
“What or who is a ‘Rivendell?’” you ask the golden-haired one that is still lingering next to you quietly.
“It’s not a what or a who, it’s a where,” he says with a wink.
You give him a small smile in thanks before you hear a voice, “Umm excuse me… Miss?”
You look down to see an even smaller man! If that’s even possible at this point...
“Oh… um… yes?”
“Bilbo Baggins, at your service! Would you like some water?” he asks, suddenly handing you a waterskin.
You smile down at him before plucking the waterskin from his hands, “Yes, thank you!”
“Milady, we should probably get you into more suitable clothing,” says a new man with gray hair done in an intricate braid. He seems slightly more proper than some of the others and you just nod absentmindedly glancing down at your ruined and pretty much useless dress.
“Aye!” grunts a balding one, who looks more so like he would kill you than talk to you, “Why are you ye dressed so… impractical.” You can tell he wanted to say something else, the kindly man next to him elbowed him just as he was about to.
“Honestly… I wondered the same thing…” you say as you regard the sandals you are wearing as you examine one foot then the other and the dress. “I don’t think this was on the agenda for the day honestly.”
Meanwhile, you ignore the two men arguing about elves in the background before you realize there are elves…
“There are elves here?” you question softly as you gaze at the men now making their way back towards the once-abandoned camp. You step over logs and hold your dress up enough to keep from getting it snagged on the underbrush of the forest. The golden haired one offering you a hand every once in a while to steady you. You grimace at the way your ankles and feet itch though.
“Of course there is, lass!” exclaims the one with the odd hat, “Surely you’ve heard of Elves!.”
“Are they tiny?” you ask suddenly, slightly concerned that everyone in this land is just very short.
“Tiny?” he questions before he bursts into laughter at the idea, “Not exactly, lass. They are about the same size as the race of men, perhaps a little taller on some occasions.”
“Men? You aren’t ‘men’ then?” you ask innocently.
“What?! You thought we were Men?!” Laughs the dark-haired one.
“Well if you aren’t Men… what are you?” you ask in confusion.
“Why Dwarves, of course!” exclaims a loud man with red hair, “The best craftsmen and warriors of Middle Earth! You’d have thought she’s never seen a Dwarf before!”
“Umm… but I haven’t…” you say hesitantly.
“Haven’t what?” questions the odd hat one.
“Seen any Dwarves… or Elves for that matter… I don’t think we have either where I come from...” you ponder out loud, trailing off slightly in thought.
The Dwarves are silent around you as they take in this new information.
“She’s a witch I say!” exclaims the one with odd hair once again.
“Oh hush Nori!” exclaims the one with the elaborate braid.
“You really aren’t from around here, are ye lass?” questions the one with the odd hat.
“No… I’m really not… and I’m not quite sure how I got here either…” you say with tears beginning to prick your eyes. You push them away because now is no time to cry.
“Aye… Don’t you worry lass! We’ll make sure you find your way to safety,” the one with the odd hat winks at you before he gets up to go talk to Gandalf.
“Aye, you shouldn’t worry,” says the Golden-haired man, um... Dwarf, “He’s right, we won’t let any harm come to you alright?”
You give him a small smile and a nod, “Thank you.”
“Come on. Bit of breakfast will do you some good,” he says as he helps you to your feet, “Oh! I’m Fili, by the way and that over there is my brother, Kili.”
“Fili and Kili?” you ask softly so you can remember their names.
“Aye, that over there is my uncle Thorin talking with Gandalf the Gray. That’s Bofur, Bombur, and Bifur,” he says, indicating the man you were talking to earlier as well as a Dwarf with dark hair and a very rotund Dwarf. “And Ori, Nori, and Dori,” he indicates the trio, one being the one who keeps insisting you are a witch and the other is busy gathering up clothing, probably for you and employing the help of another Dwarf that seems quite timid. “That’s Balin and Dwalin, they are two of uncle’s closest friends and advisors. “That’s Oin and Gloin,” he points to the doctor from earlier with the horn to his ear and the redhead from before. “And of course, Bilbo has already introduced himself.”
“Oh dear…” you say suddenly gazing about at everyone, “How many of you are there?”
“Oh, about 14, why?” questions Kili from your other side now. You have a feeling one brother is never too far from the other.
“That’s… a lot of names…” you say as you regard all the Dwarfs before you in slight confusion and resignation.
“You’ll learn them soon enough,” Fili says, patting your arm in sympathy. Probably understanding that to an outsider there are probably a lot of them.
You simply hum your agreement, even if you don’t necessarily believe it.
“My dear,” Gandalf says suddenly, “Perhaps you could join us for a moment?”
You glance up from the fire and nod before making your way towards Gandalf and Thorn? No… That’s not right…
“This is Thorin Oakenshield, and this is his company,” Gandalf says, indicating the Dwarf before you. Ah… Yes! Thorin…
“Nice to meet you,” you say politely as you regard both men, “And I am Gandalf the Gray. I was wondering if you could tell us what you are doing in the forest alone?”
“I don’t remember… I just woke up there yesterday evening.”
“Woke up where, my dear?”
“In the forest,” you say vaguely, gesturing the way you came.
“There didn’t happen to be… mushrooms… where you landed?” he asked hesitantly.
“Umm… actually yes… there were mushrooms. Why? Is that important?” you ask hungry for answers.
“It is something, it is yet to be seen if it is important yet though,” he says cryptically.
“Okay…” you say in confusion, “Well what now?”
“What do you mean?” He asks with a furrowed brow.
“Is there a town I can perhaps find help in close to here? I don’t know what to do really…”
“We should go to Rivendell!” exclaims Gandalf, “Elrond will know what is best.”
“And I’ve already said we are not going to Rivendell!” exclaims the Dwarf passionately.
You take a step back slightly startled by his outburst.
“We will find a suitable place for the lady, but we are not wasting time by going out of our way to those blasted Elves!” he then proceeds to swear in another language. How do you know it was a swear? Swearing is a universal language even if one doesn’t understand it.
“Uncle!” exclaims the dark-haired Dwarf from before, something with a ‘ly’ at the end, “Such language in front of a lady!”
Thorin just scowls and ignores the mischievous twinkle in his nephew’s eyes. You have a feeling he’s used to the young Dwarf’s antics.
“Kili! You and your brother make sure the lady is comfortable. I believe that Dori was getting her more suitable clothing?” he asks before eyeing your dress skeptically. You stand a little straighter at his scrutiny suddenly feeling a little self-conscious.
“Yes, Uncle.”
He sends you a wink before he motions for you to follow him. The man with the intricate braids is holding out some clothes for you, “I know it isn’t much, but this should get you through until we can get more suitable clothing at the next town.”
“Oh! Thank you!” You exclaim before looking around for a tent.
“Come on now!” he says marching towards the woods, “I’ll make sure no one bothers you while you change.”  
After you have changed you find yourself standing about while the Dwarfs tidy up their campsite and start on their way. You don’t really know what to do so you just watch and try to stay out of their way.
“Feel better then?” you jump at the voice behind you and turn to see one of the brothers behind you.
“Umm… yes… I do,” you say with a quiet nod and a timid smile. He beams back at you before he hands you a cloak to drape around your shoulders.
“It’s been rainy lately, you may need this.”
“Thank you,” you say, avoiding his eyes shyly as you stumble to fasten the cloak around your frame.
“Here, Milady,” he says, before he steps towards you and helps you to do the clasp.
You look down at the mismatched attire, a tunic that is far too broad in the shoulders and far too long, but also too short at the same time and a pair of pants that has far too much room in the leg and crotch area. The boots that were given to you are laced too tightly in order to stay on your feet and you wonder if the circulation will be cut off. You heave a sigh as Thorin yells that it’s time to move out. You fall in line with the others and instantly you can feel the boots rubbing your heels. This is going to be a long day…
You’re quiet most of the day despite the attempts of several of the Dwarfs to get you to open up. This seemed to dampen the spirit of the one with the funny hat, named… Bofur? You tried to recall the ones who had spoken to you most. The younger ones also seemed concerned with your absent minded answers to their questions.
“You must be in deep thought about something Lass…” you glance over at Bofur and regard him thoughtfully.
“Just trying to understand what happened is all… I’ve never done anything like that back there and I’ve never seen anything like those creatures… What even were they?”
“Trolls o’course!”
“So you don’t have Trolls where you come from either?” pipes up Kili from behind you, jogging to walk alongside you.
“No, I don’t think we had anything of the sort. At least not in real life.”
“What do you mean ‘real life?’” questions Fili glancing over his shoulder.
“Well they were in stories, but we didn’t have them in real life.”
“If ye had them in stories, how do you know they aren’t real?” questions Bofur wiggling his eyebrows.
And for the first time all day you laughed, “I once knew someone who said the same thing about dragons.”
“So there are dragons!?” questions Kili in horror.
“No, we don’t have those either,” you say matter of factly.
“But how do you know?” Questions Bofur once again with that mysterious twinkle in his eyes.
“Well aren’t they quite large? I think we would know by now! Do you have dragons here?”
“Aye, we’re on our way to reclaim our home from one,” Says Kili in excitement.
“Kili!” yells a voice from up ahead you recognize as the leader, “That is quite enough! If all it takes is a pretty face to send your head from your shoulders, I will send you back to your mother this instance.”
“Sorry uncle…” he says quietly thoroughly chastised.
You frown at the harsh way he spoke to him, but you suppose this is a secret quest? Who knows? But you could tell that Thorin didn’t seem to trust you along with a handful of the Dwarfs around you.
With the light hearted conversations effectively cut off you settle back into silence as you take in the scenery. It’s quite beautiful with lush foliage and tall trees. Bushes seem to be flowering and vaguely you wonder if these are the flowers of spring or summer.
“Why did your friend think there were dragons even if you don’t?” whispers Kili from your side.
You glance at him and notice the way that Fili and Bofur glance over at you as well, clearly interested in the question.
“Because they show up in legend and lore from all over the world, in cultures and times when they had no contact.”
“So you do have other races!” exclaims Kili in excitement, clearly pleased with his way of gaining knowledge.
“Yes, but not like here…” you say calmly, “We’re all human, there aren’t Elves or Dwarves.”
“Sounds odd,” Says Kili decidedly.
“No more odd than discovering Dwarves and Trolls when you previously thought there were none.”
“Aye, that must have been a right shock there!” Bofur interrupts.
“You have no idea… Although that wasn’t my first run in with this world…”
“Oh?” Questions Fili from his place in front of you, easily he falls back and takes the place by your side much to the displeasure of his brother, “What was?”
“Something I had never seen before… It was this large wolf-like thing…”
“Wolf-like thing?!” he asks in alarm, “A warg?”
“I wouldn’t know what a warg is…” you say, baffled by the term, “But perhaps?”
“How did ye live?! I doubt you woudda’ been able to outrun it!”  exclaims Bofur from your other side.
“A witch!” exclaims a voice from ahead of you.
You frown and roll your eyes at the Dwarf a few paces up, “It impaled itself on a branch.”
“Really? How?” questions Kili in wonder from the other side of Fili.
“I don’t really know… I didn’t see it happen… I was too scared to look…” you say hesitantly not wanting to relive the evening's events.
“That sounds terrible,” Fili says patting your shoulder, “You must have been terrified.”
Something about the soothing way that Fili speaks makes you feel better, “I was…” you say looking away from him.
You spend the remainder of the morning answering questions from the Dwarfs and eventually, many others begin to join in. This is mostly how the morning goes, with you satisfying the curiosity of the younger Dwarves and the Hobbit when he finally gets the courage to linger in the back of the company with you. It did effectively distract you from the pain of your now blistered feet and the fatigue that came with walking all day when you weren’t used to it.
The sun is high in the sky, filtering through the leaves of the forest when a commotion in the brush alerts you to something coming your way… and quickly...

Fluff & Smut Fic
welp it do be another leon fic that i wrote between the hours of 12 am and 4 am
i believe the longest i’ve written??? which is spicy. this one however features an OC, although not by name. characteristics are mentioned and her personality and backstory, but that’s it. please feel free to immerse yourself and treat it as a leon/reader fic. and if you get the chance, it’s also posted on archiveofourown if you’d like to leave a comment or kudos <3
Another morning comes, where she steps into the quiet kitchen and opens the blinds to the window above the sink, letting in the early rays of light that shine over the countertops and negate the need for the kitchen light. It’s a quiet morning, 7:04 AM on the dot, according to the time on the stove. The silence is welcoming, after too many mornings of action and terror that had plagued her and her love over the years, the likes of which made her forget the rising sun was ever warm and inviting like it was as it spilled into the silent kitchen.
Turning on the coffee pot, she watches as the caffeine slowly drips its way down into a proper morning drink, the scent of it quickly filling the room. She reaches for the mugs in the cabinet just above the pot, the quiet clinks of porcelain on porcelain echoing together, another sign of a peaceful morning. It always hit her hard as she thought about the years before, and how something so normal and commonplace always surprised her when she was in the midst of it. So many people woke up to mornings like this each day, no doubt dreading a long work day or simply going through the motions without a second thought. To her, and to her love, this was paradise. This was what they craved, something they fought for without even realizing it over the fight for peace and the safety of the world’s people.
Only once the coffee had finished brewing and she was pouring it out, did she hear the sound of feet shuffling towards the kitchen. Looking over her shoulder, she sees the man she had grown to love with her entire being over the years.. The man she fought beside, the man she had supported and who supported her through every trial and tribulation.. One of the very few people who knew exactly the horrors she had experienced, and vice versa. Face was unshaven, a five ‘o clock shadow adorning his handsome features, coupled with the dirty blond hair she’d run her fingers through a countless amount of times. Leon barely had his eyes open as he came straight for the counter, straight for her, and wrapped both arms around her waist while she let herself relax against his muscular frame.
“Morning, sweetheart… still getting up so damn early..?” He lets his chin rest on her shoulder, arms staying slightly slack around her waist so she’s still able to move as she tilts the coffee pot, watching as she slowly fills both mugs.
“Old habits are hard to break… but who’s to say we can’t just lay back in bed after we have some coffee? And maybe food. Food would be lovely.”
Leon laughs at her words, knowing full well she would be hungry in the morning as she always was after waking up. She feels the way he brings one arm up, and pushes back her hair off to one side of her body, revealing her neck to him. Next comes the feeling of familiar lips, kissing along her skin languidly… once, twice. A third time over a fading pink mark he had left the night before.
With a soft giggle, she brings one hand up to gently caress his cheek, her soft skin a contrast to the rough stubble on his face. It’s another moment she feared she wouldn’t get to have when they were in the middle of fighting the living dead and those that created them. When they were running for their lives, being shot at, being thrown around like ragdolls. And now here they both are, in a room where the only noise they hear is the sound of their bodies shifting against each other and the dulled sound of birds chirping from the trees outside.
“We deserve to have a day where we just do a whole lot of nothing. I do have to run to the store, though.. But I shouldn’t be gone more than 20 minutes.” She lifts her mug to her lips, blowing on the hot coffee before taking a small sip.
Leon lets go of her waist and moves to pick up the other mug she had poured, not bothering to blow on it the way she did and simply drank it as if it were only warm. Whether or not he did it to show off, or he was simply used to quickly downing a hot drink while he had the chance, was a mystery.
“You’re not in a rush to go, though. Right? We can worry about that later.” As he spoke, he leaned back against the counter, that fringe of hair falling near his right eye as it always did, the signature hairstyle he refused to ever get rid of. Even with his hair being unbrushed, it still fell normally to frame his face as if he had already mostly styled it for the day.
“Mhm… no rush. I want to enjoy the morning with you.” As she speaks, she sets down her mug and looks into his eyes… a beautiful blue like hers, but deeper. Darker when the light wasn’t shining into them.
It was always damn near impossible not to smile when she saw his face, even after all of the years that have passed. All of the years of heartache, fighting to survive, fighting to communicate during it all… it wasn’t easy by any measure. It wasn’t the perfect relationship either, there were personal matters to deal with on both of their ends, on their own and with each other. Ada Wong was a sore topic for a while, it took a lot of time and communication to get Leon to work through what he had going on with her in his mind. That was a point of contention, even she had trouble dealing with it at the time. And on the flip side, Leon being there to help her soften and truly open up to him, to trust him with her heart and let him see the real, unabashed sides of her. To help her learn she was meant to be loved, and she didn’t have to always rely on only herself as she had done for years before.
As she steps forward, Leon leans in towards her, both in sync as they knew what the other wanted from a simple look. Placing a hand on her hip, he gently brings her in closer as she places a hand on his chest, both leaning into each other for a kiss. Soft at first, their kiss is held for only a moment before they pull away, faces still close enough that with a subtle movement their noses would brush together.
Despite what many would think… Leon wore his heart on his sleeve. He was always compassionate, caring, and with a sense of justice like no other. While he may seem stoic and tough in many situations, if you actually talked to him… he could be surprisingly honest and earnest. In moments like these, those parts of him glowed so brightly it was blinding. Never did she think she would feel love radiating off of a man before, not like this. And not towards her.
For so many years, she knew she was a good person. She was kind, she always wanted to help, she did everything she could to help people. Not unlike Leon, really. But she kept herself hidden, spoke about herself and her life yet never told anyone anything of substance that related to her true self, her real feelings. Vulnerability was not something she learned over her years growing up, well into adulthood. Be kind, but not a pushover. Help those in need find a balance between independence and depending on others in times of necessity, but never help herself do the same. There was no such thing as a time of need for dependency to her. Things that applied to others did not apply to her, she was the exception of what she taught others. And because of that, she made peace with knowing she wouldn’t be able to find someone who would genuinely love her… who would ever get the chance to love her. Who she would ever actually be able to open up to. Who can fall for a woman hidden behind so many closed doors, she may as well not exist at all?
And how funny life is, for her to find a man who didn’t think love was an option for him, either. His work had become his life, there was no time for love and affection, for getting to know another person at all. His job being far too dangerous, friends and lovers would be a liability. It almost felt selfish to get too close to people knowing it could make them targets. For a long time, fighting and monsters was all he knew. She helped him see beyond that, to a life where he could wake up in the morning and kiss the love of his life up against the kitchen counter at 7:13 in the morning.
The sun warmed their skin as the light shone on them, both smiling softly as their gazes remained locked.
“I’ll be needing some more of that, you know…” Leon brings both hands up to her hips now, holding her in place.
“Oh…? You mean more coffee? I can pour you some more if one mug isn’t enough.” Her words with that wry smile on her face makes him laugh, making him give a small shake of his head. He pulls her closer, body pressed against body.
“More of this. More of you.”
With those final words, he wraps both arms around her waist, as she drapes her arms over his shoulders to hold him close, lips meeting in the middle again. Their bodies shifted until she stood with his leg between her own, and lips began to part and press together over and over. The sound of their kisses filled the silence of the room, even more so as his tongue slipped in to meet her own, causing a soft moan to reverberate within her throat.
Hands began to wander as one of his dipped below the hem of her shirt, calloused fingers caressing over her stomach as it moved higher and higher, lifting up her shirt with it. As he reached her ribs, just below her chest, the kisses paused as a breathy chuckle escaped his lips.
“Glad you didn’t bother putting on a bra yet.” His fingertips grazed below the curves of her breasts, teasing her.
“Mm… I wasn’t in the mood to… I don’t need one at home, do I?” She speaks softly as she leans in, placing a kiss just below his ear, then another along the side of his neck.
With a slight shiver quickly moving down his spine, Leon finally brings a hand up to properly cup her chest, one thumb brushing over her nipple. Her warm breath grazed his neck, an exhale of pleasure brought out only by a simple touch of his. With that, he spoke in a low tone of voice: “Absolutely not.”
Already, Leon could feel the blood rushing to his cock. It didn’t take much for her to bring that out of him, the curves of her body alone brought so many thoughts to his mind he could hardly stand it. She stood there, beautiful as ever in his arms, knowing that he had permission to run his hands all over her body and bring out the most delicious noises she could make. He remembered their time just the night before, only a few hours ago. When she was laying on their bed, naked, with her legs spread and beckoning for him to take her. Yet another thing that he gets to do with her that makes him forget all about the world outside of their home. The DSO, the government, the villains, the BOW’s… none of them existed in these moments.
Leon could feel the heat between her own legs pressing against his thigh, and while he may still only have just woken up, that has no effect on his strength and determination for her body. His hands reached down to grip both of her thighs, and with a brief little ‘hmph’ he lifted her up as if she hardly weighed a thing, placing her onto the countertop. The shorts she wore only covered part of her thighs, while the rest was bare and felt the cold sting of the marble countertop below her. Only a moment after he heard her mumble the word ‘cold’ did he place his hands onto her inner thighs, gently shifting them apart and responding with, “I’ll warm you up just the way you like…”
Her heart rate picked up now, as he leaned back in to kiss her, far more passionately than he had before… but still not quite as aggressively as they had kissed that night. It was still morning, after all. Part of the kitchen was still dim as the sun had yet to rise quite enough to blanket the entire room with light, much of the world beyond their window still waking up. Even they were still waking up, to a degree. It was something she absolutely loved… something exciting that they rarely ever got to do. Sleepy morning sex.
Sleepy morning sex, now taking place in their kitchen instead of their bed.
And lucky for her, Leon was already half naked. He had walked in wearing only his boxer briefs that morning, having no need to get dressed beyond that when he was staying in their house. Even she wasn’t wearing much, just a pair of underwear, shorts, and a simple t-shirt so on the off chance someone in the far distance glanced over into their windows, they wouldn’t get a free show.
His shirtlessness meant that she did not have to wait to run her fingers over his chest, feeling the taut muscles he’d built up over the years and then having the opportunity to simply look at the man who she gripped onto so tightly when he was slamming into her at top speed, edging so close to orgasm. He drove her crazy, and she drove him crazy right back.
Crazy enough that with her on the counter, rather than coming up to kiss her again, he leaned down to kiss along her inner thighs. Again, he kissed over a few fading pink marks left on her skin… sucking gently on unmarked spots to create new ones. Slowly he made his way up higher, and once he reached the apex of her thighs, he placed his hands along the waistband of her shorts.
“Lift your hips for me, baby.”
There was no hesitation as she obliged, placing her hands to her sides in order to lift herself up, allowing him the access he needed to slide her clothing off and toss it onto the kitchen floor. Leon watched her as she let her legs hang off the counter, thighs still spread apart to give him access to her already wet pussy. Her breath had already begun to pick up, he could see the rise and fall of her chest as she laid herself bare to him, a dusting of redness rising on her cheeks.
Coming forward, Leon grips her outer thighs and leans in, kissing along her skin again… unable to stop himself from teasing.
“This is new… looks like I’m the one that gets to eat first this morning.” The smirk on his lips was absolutely terrible, and she had already parted her lips to say his name, to scold him for making such a silly comment when she was spreading herself for him and trying not to lose her control. The words never came out of her mouth beyond saying the first half of his name, however, as he brought one of his hands forward and slowly dragged his middle finger up from her entrance, all the way up to brush against her clit and spread that wetness he had caused in just a matter of minutes.
Her head lolled backwards as her toes curled for just a moment, her pussy sensitive right from the start as she thought about what they were just getting up to. A soft, brief moan escaped her lips.. Only to be replaced by a sharper moan and exhale of breath, when he brought his head down, spreading her apart and immediately bringing his tongue down onto her clit.
“Leon… shit…” The words slipped out seemingly beyond her control as she shivered, looking down to see that dirty blond head of hair nestled between her legs, feeling that masterful tongue licking up and down, running in circles around her clit and tasting every inch of her. Biting her lip, she watched as his eyes gazed up at her, deep blue eyes that focused solely on her.. And even those teased her, too. Just from the look he gave her… he knew exactly what he was doing. He knew she was melting for him, that he knew every single sensitive spot she had on her body and he knew just how to play with each one.
The feeling of his rough, unshaven face against the softest, most sensitive part of her body adds an entirely new sensation that now has her toes curled indefinitely. Her thighs began to squeeze together, pressing him tighter against her body as he continued to use his tongue to pleasure her, lapping at her as if she was the greatest tasting thing he’d ever experienced. She may just be so, in actuality.
Leon knew she was getting close already, just by the way her body wracked when he reached her clit… and so he no longer focused on anything else. Keeping a tight grip on her thighs, he changed his motions as he alternated between sucking on her and flicking her with his tongue, causing her moans to truly fill the room at this point. Her body shook, hands came down to tangle in his hair… and when the waves of pleasure washed over her, she arched her back and let her head fall backwards, letting out a long drawn out, “Fuuuuccck…..!”
Not once did he stop, not when he could see that her orgasm continued to wrack her body, making her shiver over and over when it reached its peak, came slightly down, and hit her with another peak all over again. Hungrily he helped her ride out her orgasm, and only once her body began to go limp and relaxed did he finally pull back away, quickly swiping the back of his finger over his bottom lip as he brought his gaze back up to her face.
Dazed and content, she smiled as she saw the look on his face, accomplished and satisfied. Unable to help it, she let out a little giggle.
“That was incredible, honey…”
Standing up properly, he leans in and gently cradles the back of her head, fingers gently weaving into her long hair as he leaned in and kissed her cheek, then the corner of her lips. “And it’s not over yet…”
She lets her body come forward, and he watches as she slides herself off the counter onto wobbly legs, her hands coming down to the hem of his boxer-briefs. Already she could see the large bulge that had formed, and knew that he had to be absolutely suffocating with keeping those on. Pulling at the hem, she brought his underwear out and down, freeing his cock and watching as precum instantly came to the tip. Her gentle fingers come down to wrap around him, giving him three long strokes as he closes his eyes and exhales, one hand coming to rest on her lower back and keep her close to him. After only a moment, his blue eyes opened and focused on hers again.
“I can’t wait for you anymore… no foreplay for me.” And she lets out the tiniest yelp of surprise and happiness when he places both hands on her ass, pulling her in for a hard kiss.
Bringing his lips to her ear, his hot breath brushes against her as his words are spoken: “I need to be inside of you. Now.”
Nothing else needs to be said to her with that. While she may have only just orgasmed, it meant nothing. She was ready to go again immediately, feeling as if something was entirely missing now that she’s horny and seeing that absolutely starving look in his eyes.
And while he had half expected her to hop onto the counter again… she decided to go with a position they don’t get to do as often, given that they both value seeing each other’s faces in their throes of passion. Sometimes it was nice to spice things up, and she’d been wanting to do this one for a while.
Leon watches as she takes off her shirt, and turns around. His eyes are completely glued to her as she keeps her feet firmly planted on the ground… and leans over the counter, her upper body now laying on it with her ass out to him, legs slightly spread. From this angle, while he couldn’t see her face… he could absolutely see everything else.
He does get to meet her gaze again however, as she turns to look back at him over her shoulder. And while she’d always been a sweet, very mature woman… she could get absolutely dirty. Keeping his eyes locked to hers, she gives him the dreamiest of smiles, paired with her pleading words:
“I want you to fuck me from behind, Leon. Please…”
As if any man would be able to say no to her like that. His stunning girlfriend, again spread wide for him.. But now he could admire the curve of her back, the way her legs looked as they gently stretched to keep herself planted on the floor, and the way her long, black hair fell over her shoulders and onto the counter where her arms were crossed beneath her head for cushioning.
Words are breathlessly spoken as he moves forward, both hands on her ass not only to keep her steady but to spread her just slightly further apart, lifting her ass and giving him every bit of access he needed for his hardened cock.
“As if I could ever say no to you.”
And with those assertive words, Leon lines himself up with her pussy, something he’d done so many times it was absolutely second nature to him. Moving forward, he lets out a low, quiet groan of pleasure as he feels himself slide inside of her, slowly filling her up until he reaches as deep as he can go. That familiar warmth and wetness, her body felt as if she was made for him… and of course, she felt as if his body was made for her, too. Gently she digs her nails into her arms, biting her lip as he simply rested inside of her for the moment, allowing her the time to get used to him being inside again, as if he hadn’t been in her just hours before.
It’s only once he sees her turn to look over her shoulder at him again, seeing those pretty blue eyes of hers begging without words for him to move, that he slides himself back out again. Leon keeps his hands on her hips now, holding her in place as he thrusts himself back in, unable to keep the moan from escaping his own mouth. While he may not be the loudest in bed, he was surely not shy with the moans and groans that do come out of him.
Picking up the pace, the sound of skin on skin melded with the moans of ecstasy released by them both as Leon continued to fill her to the brim, getting to a point where he refused to pull out of her more than halfway, choosing instead to keep a faster pace and slam into her over and over again. Soon she feels him rest more weight on her, one hand coming down to press onto her clit, causing a much louder gasp from her, a gasp that quickly changed to a shaky whimper of pleasure when he used three fingers at once to rub circles on her clit.
It isn’t long before she begs for more, for him to go faster…. Until he hears those words that always bring him over the edge.
“Leon, please… make me cum…!”
Leon nearly becomes blinded by his own rapture, groaning the word ‘fuck’ desperately under his breath as he holds her steady, holds her close.. Making sure that she never strays far from his thrusts as his dick drove her to the brink all over again, just like he did last night.
He felt it, it built up so fast every time he felt her walls constrict around him, squeezing his cock and driving him insane with the tightness she enveloped him with over and over again. There was nothing else he could do, no more holding himself back as he finally lets out a desperate groan and long exhale, only slightly muffled by her own cries of an orgasm taking over her body all over again, causing her to shake and shiver just as it had before when he ate her out.
Not only did she cum, but he came even harder. She felt it as he unloaded into her, hot and thick cum completely filling her from the inside and nearly making her eyes roll into the back of her head. Never did she let anyone cum inside of her before… only Leon has ever been allowed that privilege. And it was a privilege he never took for granted.
It took a solid few minutes for their orgasms to finally subside, the waves turning to an overwhelming feeling of warmth that remained evenly across their bodies, inside and out. Both bodies turned to jelly as Leon slowly slipped out of her, watching as his cock moved back and he could see his cum beginning to drip out of her. He had to admit, he came pretty hard for what was essentially an early morning quickie. That sleepy morning sex sure as hell woke them both up.
Slowly, she stood back up to face him, taking it easy as her back shifted and returned to a comfortable posture. Without fail, he came forward and hugged her, holding her up against his body so she didn’t have to worry about using strength that had been sapped from her after two back to back orgasms.
“Bet you’re starving now, huh? You were already hungry to begin with.” Leon says with a chuckle in his voice, leaning in to kiss her forehead after the words had been spoken.
An exhausted but contented laugh spills from her own lips as her head tilts, resting against his shoulder and allowing herself to simply be held and loved the way he always did after sex.
“Mhm… but that was all worth it. We earned ourselves a big breakfast and a hot bath together afterwards.”
The smiles remained on both of their lips, even more so as he leaned down to whisper right into her ear: “I love you.”
And as her arms snaked around his body, she hugged him showing how he truly was the most precious person in the world to her. Never would she let him think otherwise.
“I love you too, Leon.”

This might be a lengthy post, but I feel like getting into why Iyami’s characterization was so good last episode! It’s really not apparent if you take it at face value because Iyami is a complex dude like that, but we’ve seen a lot of something we don’t see very often: we’ve seen Iyami being altruistic. In his own Iyami way, of course.
Tumblr media
Like, at the beginning, when he first realizes the city is full of aliens passing for regular people, we don’t see what happens right after that. We see Iyami panic, so he must have been checking out as many people as he can with the sunglasses on to see if they were aliens or not. And at one point, he realizes all six of the Matsuno brothers have been replaced by aliens.
Now, that’s no secret to anyone: Iyami isn’t a very good person. He’s a man who almost always acts on his own best interest and doesn’t care much about what happens to other people as long as nothing bad happens to him. He said it himself: he didn’t really want to fight the aliens. It was just going through unnecessary trouble to him. He didn’t have anything to gain by involving someone else into this situation. And yet! He reached out to Matsuzō to let him know his sons weren’t truly his sons. That’s no grand gesture in of itself. You could argue he was just scared and didn’t want to face the invasion alone, and that could very well be the case. But I still say it was out of some concern for the sextuplets. And I have two reasons to say this:
The first one is that Iyami isn’t particularly close to Matsuzō. Well, Iyami isn’t very close to anyone but Chibita, but of all the side characters, I’d say he trusts the Matsuno parents the least. Historically, they have rarely been on the same side. He rarely sees eye to eye with them and I can see him trusting pretty much all of the other side characters over the parents. If he was just scared, he could have reached out to one of the others. But his first reaction after seeing the sextuplets had been replaced was to try and tell one of their parents. They could have handwaved this by saying all of the others had been replaced, but that wasn’t the case. The second reason though, is what leads me to believe we’ve seen a rare display of Iyami acting out of concern for the sextuplets, and that’s how incredibly stubborn he was in making Matsuzō put on the sunglasses and see things by himself!
There’s no way around it: Iyami is selfish and preoccupied with himself first and foremost. You’d expect that, as soon as Matsuzō brushed him off (by insulting him, to boot!) he’d give up on the idea of telling him. He doesn’t really care, right? But instead, he got into a physical brawl with Matsuzō, and it wasn’t a fight he had the upper hand on! He got thrown around like a ragdoll a LOT, way more often than he got to hit Matsuzō. If he hadn’t decided to bite him, he’d have lost that fight very easily. But that’s how intent he was on letting him know!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The second thing that stood out to me was the whole exchange about Matsuzō being tired of providing for his family:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
At first, I took it at face value: Iyami doesn’t have a job. He has no family, so he only has to provide for himself. He doesn’t understand you can’t just walk away from it all. It’s just him being selfish as usual. But after this conversation ended and Matsuzō pleaded with Iyami to help him find his sons, I suddenly interpreted it in a whole different way: This is Iyami’s way to tell Matsuzō to quit complaining because he’s lucky to have what he has.
Of course, this is my personal interpretation but I can’t unsee it now: Matsuzō comments it must be easy being like Iyami, living only for himself and not caring about anything and says he’s tired of giving all he has for his family. This strikes a nerve with Iyami. “You’re tired of putting effort in caring about your family?” He says. “Then leave your job. Leave them. Don’t you want to be just like me?”
You can say Iyami is free. He doesn’t have a job or people who depend on him. But he doesn’t see himself as lucky. He leads a pretty miserable existence. Begging and stealing and scamming people to have something to eat. He probably wouldn’t admit it, but maybe... a small part of him wanted what Matsuzō has. Stability. People who would be by his side no matter what. So he calls Matsuzō out. Yeah, his family can be a handful. But thanks to them, he’s not alone. He’s got people to come home to every day. Why the hell would he want to be like Iyami? That’s just foolish. That’s what he’s saying, in his own unpleasant way. Matsuzō picks up on that, and the very next thing he asks for is help to find his children. He loves his family, as much as they’re not perfect.
This episode, along with the “sheeh!” skit in which Iyami teaches the AI robots how to sheeh paint a very different picture of Iyami than the goofy, unpleasant, larger than life crook he’s usually shown as, especially in -san exclusive material. He’s all those things, yes, but he’s also... kinda lonely. He’s abrasive as all hell, and probably too emotionally constipated to express it anyway, but, maybe in place of the fame he once had and lost, he craves something. He wants the attention of the people around him, or, at the very least... he wants them close. The world isn’t as fun without them around, anyway.

SFW Alphabet | Usami Tokishige
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🎵 This may become a little brutal If I'm honest but It's any-anything for you my dear, I promise 🎶 You can figure our what I was listening to while writing this piece. Anyway, hope you’ll like it, anon!  You can check tosikowrites tag for more.  Warning: there’s a lot under the cut.
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
The fact that Usami fell in love and now can’t shut up about them is not that surprising since the soldiers of the 7th Division have already witnessed his unhealthy obsession with the First Lieutenant. The dangerous aura of infinite adoration he carries does not bother others as much as well, maybe, because now his cursed energy has more output options, you know? It is not concentrated on one person and seems not so intense. Seems.
No matter how wild his fantasy runs, Usami behaves himself in their presence. Of course, his nerves are as taut as a rope since if he loosens up his attention he may not contain his passion…Chooses words carefully so as not to push them away and comes across as a lovely bubbly young man with the cutest smile! Even sitting in silence together is special. Usami can’t quit staring at them, they are so majestic!
He wants to follow them everywhere. Eat together, go on morning walks together, sleep together. Usami is a human version of burdock that will either quite by accident bump into his crush every other day or shamelessly ask them if they will be in this specific place or if they want to go there with him.
Personal boundaries? Don’t know her. As soon as his loved one gives him green light, Usami’s hands are all over the place. If he isn’t pinching their pink cheeks then he is patting their head. If he isn’t patting their head, he might be squeezing their ass. Usami is all about physical affection in every possible way, and it is extremely important for him to touch his partner. He might even lose it when they put a hand on his knee or take him by the hand, leave alone anything spicier.
Usami will end anyone who steps between him and his loved one. For him this is a cut-throat axiom, it is as natural as breathing, and it should be obvious to the surrounding. Anyone who wants to separate them automatically signs their own death sentence that will be carried out immediately by Usami himself.
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
To be friends with the rabid Superior Private, you have to be a mad lad with no moral compass (the questionable moral compass is ok too) just like him or be a literal angel with the patience of a sage and a heart of gold to deal with the chaos Usami brings into your life. Also, this person has to have impeccable reflexes just in case he decides to cut this friendship off. Takagi Tomoharu didn’t and where is he now?
With such a friend, nothing is scary. Friendship with Usami provides invulnerability in situations where an ordinary person would think twice. In addition to that, Tokishige doesn’t really look for troubles and prefers to spend time like a real hedonist: red-light district workers know his preferences very well, the owner in his favorite diner always meets him with a question “the usual?”, and Usami knows places to hang around in general. His friend gets to experience life delights with him as well.
He needs so much attention! If it was up to him, Usami would spend at least an hour every day with them even when they have already talked about every single thing in the world. Everyday chats about nothing are cool, mutual flattery is appreciated. These points lead to Usami being overly possessive: if his best friend suddenly starts spending more time with someone else, he will definitely take action against this stumbling block.
Demands that his friend to follow the “the enemy of my friend is my enemy” rule. They are obligated to get embittered at Ogata. No, Usami doesn’t explain why, they just have to.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
Usami has restless ass syndrome. It’s like restless legs syndrome but with ass: he can’t sit still for more than 15 minutes. Cuddles do not last longer than that and often progress into steamy making out. It doesn’t mean he doesn’t like to cuddle though. Usami prefers to do it while leaving some space for moving so the leg hug is just perfect. Any other position including classical spooning feels like a rabbit trap.
If his partner is bigger than he is, Usami will definitely lie on their chest with legs wiggling up in the air. First of all, now he can see their lovable face, and second of all, he is on top which means being in control.
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
Eeeh. Does he want to settle down? No, not really. Let’s say, there was no reason for him to think about settling down but even if there was, Usami would aggressively shake his head in negation. He is, just like Koito, too young to plan a quiet family life, and, at the moment, living on the wheels without thinking up ahead seems much more exciting than being chained to one place with one person. In his head, things are kind of overexaggerated but the answer to the question is still no for the next 10 years for sure.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
It is highly unlikely that Usami will break up with his partner in a proper manner. Self-deprecating comments and taking the blame for a failed relationship have no place in his explanation if he even decides to talk about it. Most likely Usami will leave them as spontaneously and unexpectedly as he popped up in their life in the first place: hops on a horse, gives them short indifferent look over the shoulder, and fades into the darkness of the night to never be seen again. Maybe, it’s for the better since Usami doesn’t have to face the fact he has nothing to say. Well, he chooses to be silent since crushing them with disinterest that makes the kid throw the old toy into the toybox doesn’t please him either. No check-ups, no letters, no “let’s stay friends”.
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
Avoids this question to the last minute because he is too young to commit and jump into family life. Usami reminds me of the type of person who wants to experiment in youth so that in old age he would not regret missing exciting opportunities. There is not a chance he will propose until he comes to the conclusion that he has already seen and experienced the most impressive stuff. So, maybe, from 7 to 10 years? Most definitely feels neutral about having an affair or two since he has a pretty lenient conscience.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
Emotionally? Absolute emptiness with, perhaps, distorted memories of family love arising here and there. His feelings are strong, aggressive, filled with preceding excitement before the upcoming fun. Calm states of mind such as serenity, clarity, boundless love are too underwhelming for Usami. Wouldn’t call him gentle in the physical sense either: life is motion, and he has to move or do something, anything to feel alive, and impatience makes his moves rough and harsh. Even in a gentle embrace, it seems that he squeezes his loved one to their ribs cracking. He kisses them out until they want to slip out of his hands like a gasping fish. They may like it, they may not, but Usami doesn’t loosen his love grip and remains a (little) wild in the relationship.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
Usami hugs them at the most unexpected moments, takes them by storm to squeeze the hell out of them. Perhaps these are his favorite ones, to pick them up high and spin, leaving their legs tingling in the air like a ragdoll.
His hands never stay in one place. Feeling their warm body under the fingertips is indescribable pleasure so Usami gives himself free rein to rub their back, squeeze their sides, press them to his chest, and nuzzle into their neck. He may bite them as well.
Can’t stand to be hugged when he is obviously busy to the point where Usami can kinda gently push them away but sees no problem when he does the same to his partner. Believes that everything can be forgiven for his big puppy eyes (and other particular qualities).
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
Casually says it on like the second day of official dating over the cup of tea. Hard to say if he is for real so confident in his feelings or if he does it to check their reaction but nevertheless. Usami looks his loved one right in the eyes with undisguised beaming complacency, and his confession is short, definite, and unobjectionable. Propping his chin with his pale hands, he immediately returns to the casual conversation and keeps going joyfully about whatever on his mind like Usami didn’t just murmur how he is in love with them forever and for ever. After that, he is elated. Confession is a kind of seal of belonging to him, consent of another person is optional, it doesn't matter at all, all that does it that they are his and he is theirs.
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
This shit is scary for everybody involved. Usami doesn’t get jealous per se but he has a strong feeling of having his loved one in his possession. Should someone try to covet his partner as hell breaks loose: regardless of who exactly was the initiator, - his loved one or another person, - Usami immediately takes action. In his mind, his partner can’t be guilty of infidelity, they were simply coerced into foul play and have to be taught how to recognize such a thing, they are innocent. This awful other person is different though, they are the ones who need to be taught some manners.
To start a fight Usami needs one dirty look, one carelessly thrown word. This is just an excuse to allow himself to take out all the anger on the poor soul. If Koito likes to gab hours on end but secretly hoping to avoid getting physical, Usami sees talking as a waste of time. Of course, if one fight is not enough, then Usami can go in for murder.
After the accident, he acts a lot rougher with his partner forcing them deeper into submission. To maintain ego and control and to be sure that they know their place, Usami needs praise, persuasion, and tons of physical affection.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
Loves the concept of kissing, loves to kiss, and to be kissed. Sees every kiss as a personal signature but also, on another level, rewarding pastime so Usami is all about steamy make-out sessions. He is eager and rough, oftentimes marks his partner in visible areas with not only bright hickeys but with straight out bites. The look of dark crescents from his teeth scattering on their delicate neck turns Usami on like nothing else.
Likes to be kissed all over the body, would prefer them to be as rough though since casual soft kisses don’t really set a mood for him. The same goes for them, Usami won’t leave a spot unkissed on their body. Has a thing for the neck, wrists, and insides of the thighs.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
Don’t let him around kids because it seems like Usami is good at it but in reality, he just builds up an army of naughty children to throw eggs at the neighbor's door. He like a devil coerces the goody angel into a mini-revolution under the nose of parents without offering any candy. Give this man a free hand, remove Tsurumi from his life, and you’ll see Usami growing into a cult leader. So, yes, he is pretty good with children older than like 5-6 years old, can’t do shit with babies younger than that. Usami hasn’t thought about being a father himself because beyond pranks and fun he knows absolutely nothing, zero, nada about raising children.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Incredibly active and varied if Usami managed to fall asleep before midnight the day before. He unceremoniously wakes his partner up either covering their face with kisses or pulling the blanket off them or starting a pillow fight. Expects his loved one to rise and shine without spending an hour just sitting here with an empty stare in the void.
Even when Usami collapses in the bed at dawn, it is possible that he will accidentally wake them up with a sweeping elbow blow to the nose. During the cold season, his partner should be ready to wake up trembling without a blanket. This bastard steals it every other night.
It is rare to see Usami cooking or doing anything useful at all in the house in the morning. He prefers to wander around while his partner lays the table and talk out loud to himself.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
Unpredictable. He may get lost for an evening, come back with no explanation (we all know he was up to no good), and crash next to them with a smug smile. Other nights Usami can’t leave them alone: it feels like it is vital for him to fiddle with their fingers, play with their hair, pull them into a tight hug. The maximum relaxation effect is achieved with a couple of bitter sake shots drunk before meals.
Sleeping. Nobody canceled messed up sleeping schedule (check out the last letter of the alphabet) so Usami may have to make up for it by going to bed as early as 8 p.m.
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
Opens up slowly but doesn't pay much attention to what exactly he is saying. Everything that has happened to the present moment is already history so Usami treats it as such. What once pleased or upset him does not evoke any strong emotions now and he easily reveals his past to the loved one. Usami, of course, avoids mentioning the murder of his friend but with a partner who very clearly shows their loyalty, he will not hesitate to describe how much it turned him inside out and changed him, opening doors to the darkest corners of his soul. In return, Usami asks his loved one tons of questions from favorite color to a relationship with their mother, feeling free to ask the most intrusive ones.
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
He is in the state of the boiling kettle 24/7, ready to whistle for any given reason. Not that he is that angry, but definitely in an unstable state of mind. When he gets pissed off, Usami doesn't change in the face, except that his smile can get even wider baring sharp small teeth. In most cases, other people have to restrain his anger so the military does a good job at keeping Superior Private in check with an iron fist out of battles and letting him go wild when the situation requires it.
In the relationship, Usami teeters on the brink just like the outside of it but his reactions to upsetting situations are milder and are easily resolved by sublimating desire to destroy into intense workout, make out, etc. He is easy to blow out but he tries really hard to do not harm his loved one.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
There is a whole room in his mind palace to store volumes of information about the loved one. Usami thrives on discovering different aspects of his partner’s personality in deep conversations and in characteristic behavior that he enjoys so much to observe. Therefore, nothing goes unnoticed.
Perfectly navigates the tone of their voice: Usami knows exactly how their sadness sounds when they try to veil it with cheerful words and when to step back when they rise their voice in a fit of anger. Awfully useful with a person who has a hard time communicating and/or expects others to understand them just like that.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
He doesn’t have a favorite one. All meaningful moments like the first meeting, first kiss, other first times occupy equally important places in his heart so if asked Usami will murmur how every second with them is unthinkably precious and he can’t pick just one!
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
Ready to faithfully protect his partner in the most dangerous situations. It is obvious, isn’t it? Usami will cover them like a shield on the battlefield, but most of the time he prefers to eliminate the source of danger: thanks to a state of perpetual alert and intense adrenaline rush, he can ignore multiple injuries for hours while shooting off foes. Usami lacks the voice of reason so he tends to overreact when it is completely out of place.
Oh, Usami doesn’t let anybody touch his loved one. As soon as he sees a hand reaching to them, he reflexively grabs it if not twists it with excessive force. Strangers understand they should not mess with Usami from his piercing look but there is always a fool who tempts fate in vain.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
Not that much. He doesn't bother planning dates and gifts but sometimes there are moments of enlightenment that make Usami sit down and think about how to impress his loved one in a good way. Most of the time he prefers spontaneity to foresight since in his mind whatever is fun to him will work for them too.
Anniversaries are the dates when Usami is all sweetness and light: he runs around his loved one ready to bend over backward for their enjoyment. Seriously, he is ready to be used as a footrest for the whole day if it’s what they want.
Slacks on everyday tasks though, he is great at avoiding daily chores under the stupidest pretext.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
I won't even start talking about how unhinged he is, you should have had figured it out by now. I just have to mention again that this is an integral personality trait and Usami cannot physically change it. Take it or leave it. He is not forcing anybody to participate in his violent misadventures but he won’t tolerate attempts to stop them.
Control freak, Usami thinks he owns a person when in the relationship. He quite seriously believes that he is in control of their life and can decide whether they can or cannot do particular things. Of course, if they do not act in accordance with Usami’s wishes, they will be punished to prevent further misbehavior.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
Usami’s skin is naturally silky and he likes to keep it this way despite the harsh weather conditions. Nobody knows if he is using any creams or other cosmetics but the fact remains: his face is almost baby-like soft. Also, running men tattoos fade quickly due to their location so Usami has to renew them quite often. He does it with enviable regularity and forbids everyone (except his partner and First Lieutenant) to touch his cheeks. His clothes are in fair condition as well as his shoes. Usami wears his clothes neatly, and never wears them off to the holes and patches.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
All attempts to break up with Usami end with his theatrical chuckle and short “good joke, darling”: they are not going anywhere until he allows them to do so. The more times his partner brings this dumb question up, the angrier he gets, barely hiding it behind biting his lips. By the time his patience bursts, Usami has already come up with a plan to keep them by his side, voluntarily or compulsorily. If they decide to leave him because they didn’t get enough attention and affection, Usami will try to fulfill their every whim. If they express their concerns regarding his behavior, Usami will learn how to hide unsightly features better. All in all, he is not going to let them go just because they want to. It seems that the risk of ending on the side of the road gives him even more fervor to fight for their love.
The only thing that remains for his loved one is to leave Usami with no farewell letter left behind. Otherwise, they risk gaining a stalker with military experience under his belt. Not the best combination if you ask me.
If they were killed, Usami one hundred percent will find their murderer and tear them apart. Literally. He snaps, he is not going to hold back any longer.
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
Must be an obvious one but Usami is a kinky bastard. He tries such things to which no adequate person would agree or if they did it is unlikely that they would tell anyone about it. This applies not only to sexual behavior, he is eccentric in general, he is not held back by social rules and limits of decency. Usami would set few things on fire just to see how long it takes each to burn to the crisps. Sucks fingers and toes. I don’t know, he does everything you are kind of uncomfortable to do. Might fuck around and start another war idk.
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)
Can’t handle boring people. Looking at what he considers “boring” people tells that it includes people with no character, withdrawn from society and recent events, silly and predictable ones. First, most likely they would not interact with Usami considering how unhinged he is. He is more trouble than he is worth, you know. And secondly, Usami doesn’t notice them in the crowd. If his loved one happens to be too boring, he will leave them, sooner or later.
Anyone standing between him and First Lieutenant can forget about any relationship with Usami. It is impossible. The gears in his head are spinning like crazy to come up with a perfect plan and get away with their murder. No hard feelings, but Usami’s obsession with Tsurumi isn’t going anywhere, and the only scenario he can agree with is dating someone who if doesn’t support it then at least doesn’t try to ward him off of it.
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habit of theirs?)
His sleep schedule is an absolute mess with no hint of changing in the future. First of all, Usami sleeps 4-6 hours per day, can’t sleep during the day so he doesn’t take naps and doesn’t nodes off. At the same time, these short hours of sleep do not stick to night time only: sometimes Usami decides to go to bed at 3 a.m. still full of energy, other days he crawls under the blanket at 6 p.m. exhausted to the point of collapsing. He never complains about sleep, sees almost acid-trippy dreams a few times a month, and not even once had to take a pill to fall asleep.
Sleeps like a dead man with limbs entwined around his loved one. His lips break into a sweet smile as Usami throws a leg over their body and presses himself closer. He looks so peaceful you’d never think this man can bite your hand and throw you out of the window uwu.

Synopsis: You’re being kidnapped by Bakugou and his gang and while in captive you fall in love with him.
-
Day 1. The car was moving fast. It was rushing through traffic and heading to its destination; headquarters. Everything went as planned. They had captured a victim to be held against its will so that the boss of this whole operation could dominate the world. Who was the victim? You.
You were breathing heavily and everything was dark. You tried to pull on your arms and legs but they were tied together. Your arms behind your back, and your legs were wrapped with rope from your ankels to your knees. Something was thrown over your head making it dark so you could not see a thing. You were scared; to say at least. How did you end up in this situation? Oh yeah, you're the daughter of Japan's most intelligent police officer. Getting abducted on a busy street was never something that had crossed your mind.
You could feel the car turn and started drving on a bumby road. The ground was hard against your flawless skin, it hurt when there was a bumb on the road making you fly around the car like some ragdoll. Soon, the car slowed down and the front doors of the car opening and closing. The back of the van where you had been traveling in opened and a pair of strong arms picked you up like you weight nothing and you were tossed over a pair of bulky shoulders. You dared not speak, afraid of what was to come. You could hear footsteps walking and soon you were thrown on the ground, sitting on your knees. The footsteps kept getting closer and soon stopped, right in front of you. The fabric that was over your head was dragged away. You opened your eyes slowly and in front of you seeing a pair of military boots and cargo pants. The smell of smoke was hitting your nose and the person in front of you crouched.
“Welcome, I hope my men didn't treat you too roughly.” Looking up you saw a very handsome man looking at you. Vermillion eyes staring into yours, a smirk on the mans lips. He had spiky blonde hair that suited his face very well. He was very muscular, the tank he was wearing showing of his bulky form.
Still, you didn't dare say a word as the man in front of you took his cigarette in his mouth and blowing out smoke in your face. The smell of the cigarette and a mix of caramel hitting your nose. You started to cough.
“Well, it doesn't really matter as I don't fucking care how they treated you,” he laughs and then stands straight up, throwing the cigarette butt on the ground and stomping on it. “Do you know why you're here?”
“N-No.”
“Oh, so you can speak? You're here because YOU are gonne help me get some of my men out of prison, princess.”
Taking a deep breath you asked “why?” The man crouched down to your eye level, his right hand cupping your cheek and stroking its wat around the back of your head. Grasping his fist around your hair and pulling it back so your looking up at him, submitting to him. His face drawing closer to yours as you gazed into his vermillions.
“I'm the one asking the questions, not you, okay princess? You're gonna listen to me and if you don't obey, well, let's just say it won't be fun for you.” You could only watch him, your eyes showing how terrified you were of this man. “I'm Bakugou Katsuki, leader of the Syndicate gang and I welcome you to your new home, (y/l/n) (y/n).”
-
Day 3.
Gazing up at the ceiling of your “room” was becoming your everyday life. After the man, Bakugou, had introduced himself he told his two henchmen, who you learned the names of; Kirishima and Kaminari, to show you to your room. It was just like a prison. You had your own bathroom (which you were very thankful for) and a bed. Nothing more, nothing less. There were no windows and the door into your room was locked from the outside, indeed making you their prisoner.
You had nothing to do. All you could do was to sleep, eat, visit the bathroom and repeat. Watching the ceiling was what you had been doing these past 4 days being their captive. You had only seen Kirishima and Kaminari, but no Bakugou. Who was he? He was like a shadow to you, appearing then just dissapearing. You've been here for days and nothing had happened. Was the police on the move? Had they found a clue so they could rescue you?
Your thoughts were interrupted at the sound of the door unlocking. You immediately sat up and watched as the door opening and the “shadow” you just had been thinking of walking in.
“You. Come,” was all he said as he stood by the door watching you. Thinking if you should listen or not, you just sat still on the bed and watched him. Afraid of what he might do, but also standing up for yourself. “Oi, did you not hear me?”
“Yes, I heard. I just decided that I won't put up with this shit anymore,” you talk back to him. You see his left eye twitch and soon he is in front of you. Grabbing you the the hair and throwing you on the ground. Hard. You land on your face, hitting you face hard on the hardwood floor covering your room.
“Huh? What did you say?!” You turn and meet his gaze. His eyes screaming with fury. Oh had you made the dragon mad. You could see a vein on his thick neck pop out as he was clenching his fists so hard.
“I said... I won't put up with this shit anymore,” you felt a stinging feeling on your cheek. Had he just hit you? You feel your cheek, it was warmer than usual and when you pulled your hand back to look at it. There was blood on it.
“Fucking whore,” he cursed and grabbed you by the throat. Lifting you up. When you were on your legs you started to cough as he lets you go only to grab your arm, his grip strong on your forearm as he dragged you out. You tried to squirm out of his grip. Getting scared. Why did you have to fight against him with your smart mouth?
As he continued to drag you around the big house he stoon stopped to open a door. Walking into the room, there was only a wooden chair in the middle. Bakugou sat you down and was fast behind you and tied your arms behing the chair and your legs to each chair leg.
“Now you won't escape,” he whispered from behind, his breath on your neck making your bodyhair raise and you shudder. “What does your dad plan to do with my fellow gang member?” He asks while walking around so he's in front of you now.
“I-I don't know. It's not like he tells me everything.”
“No? Well you've been gone for 3 days now and he still hasn't called or texted you about your whereabouts so I think we're gonna have a little chat with him.”
-
The call that Bakugou had with your dad was hard for you. You could hear your dad's voice, consumed by panic and concern. Your dad was good at his job, great even. But he was married to it, not really caring much about your mom, you or your siblings. Yes, he loved you all but he wanted a society that's free from villains and filled with heros, like your childhood friend Midoriya Izuku.
Bakugou wanted your father to send him information about his inmates. As you could not hear your dad while Bakugou was talking to him you could guess what your father was thinking. He was gonna drag this out as far as possible and hope that it will buy him time to get Izuku and his agency to find you; he hoped.
After the phone call, Bakugou was very displeased with it and dragged you back to your room and locking you up again., but not before grabbing you by the neck pulling you close so you could smell him and wgisper in your ear that you're never gonna get away.
Thinking back to the phone call you had watched Bakugou and seen that he wanted to free his inmates; showing you a side of him that you hadn't seen. Was there more hiding underneath his hard demeanor?
-
Day 5.
He was all you could think about, day and night. His words echoing through your head and telling you that you're never gonna get away. The two days after that followed you had listened to his every comand, wanting to get on his good side. Your bruise was starting to heal well and that was something. He intriuged you; there was something about him that made you want to get even closer to him.
You were lying and bed and thinking of him and then decided to try something out. You stood up from the bed and walked to the door, knocking on it.
“Whacha' want?” A voice answered.
“I want to talk to your boss.”
“Oh? Gonna cooperate?”
“Yeah.” You could hear the sound of foot steps fading and opening and closing in the span of a few minutes. Soon the door to your room was unlocking and you took a step away so the door wouldn't hit you in the face.
“Leave us,” Bakugou's rough voice told his red haired henchmen. “Speak.”
“Um, well. I... Um... I-I was gonna ask if it would be possible if I could have some fresh air.”
“No.”
“Why not? I'm not gonna run. You could have someone come with me?” You were looking at the floor the whole time you were speaking. You lifted your head up to look at him and his vermillion eyes were watching you.
“I don't trust you and I definitely don't trust you with them.”
“Well you could come with me?” Bakugou raised one of his eyebrows with that question of yours.
“5 minutes, because I'm in a good mood. If you try something, I'll fuck you up. Got it?”
“Got it,” you smiled at him. “Thank you Bakugou-san”. Bakugou could only watch you as you said his name. The way your eyes lit up when you said it; it was strange.
Everyday this past week had you seen him wearing the same outfit; military boots, cargo pants and a tank. Today, tough, from the waist down it was the same but on his upper body now was a very tight black t-shirt and a leather jacket. This man looked so good. You licked your lips as you scanned him up and down. God, what was happening to you? He was your kidnapper, the guy who had hit you, who was ruthless and heartless.
“Hurry up, I ain't got all fucking day and stop fucking smiling already.”
“Oh, sorry. I'll grab my shoes,” taking your sneakers and sitting on the bed to put them on you could se from the corner of your eyes that he had moved closer to you. When you were done, you looked up at him and smiled. “I'm ready.”
“Let's go then.”
-
Walking out and smelling the fresh air made you smile big. Breathing in heavily and letting it out. The sun was getting down and as you looked around, you wouldn't have guessed that it'd be so beautiful. There was a lake by the house, with a bridge. Everything was surrounded by trees and you could tell that you where not near the city anymore. You loved it, the city but you had always loved the forrest and the outskirts of the city.
“It's beautiful out here.”
“Tch”, Bakugou clicked his tongue and you turned to look at him. “I may have kidnapped you, but I've got money and class.”
“Yes. I can see that,” you tried to muffle the sound of your giggles.
“Are you done?”
“With what?”
“With being outside.”
“You gave me 5 minutes. I can guarantee you, Bakugou-san, that they have not passed yet. Oh, can we please take a walk to the lake? After that I'm done.”
“Tch”, he sounded again and grabbed your hand, his grip firm but not hard as he dragged you towards the lake. He stopped a few feet from the water and there were trees around you.
“Thank you,” was all you said as a few minutes passed by. He was standing close to you, probably so if you tried to run he could be fast to catch you. The smell of his cologne mixed with caramel and cigarettes made you press your thighs together, trying to hide your arousal from him. You bit your lip and just stood beside him and enjoying this moment. As you turned to look at him, he was already looking at you. “What?”
And then your back was pressed hard against a tree, making your heart skip a beat and your lungs forget how to breathe. His right forearm was pressed against your chest and his left hand at the tree. His face mere inches away from yours. “You want me to fuck you?”
“W-What?” His face moved so his lips were beside your left ear.
“You want me to fuck you, (y/n)? Hard against this tree, while my gang members are watching from the house? You want me to touch you, here?” His arm from your chest dissapeared as he cupped your sex, making you gasp. His hand slowly started to caress your sex from the outside of your jeans. “You want me to make you cum? All over my fingers?” You could only moan at his words. His fingers traveled up and squeezed your left breast, hard. His body moved closer to you and his left hand started to palm your other breast. You were breathing heavily, eyes closed.
“You like that? You like my hands on your tits?” Unable to speak, you nodded. Bakugou stopped, his left hand grabbing your face hard. “You answer when I talk to you, understood?”
“Y-Yes.”
“Yes, what?”
“Yes, sir.” Letting your face go for a second but only for his lips to start devouring your mouth. It was very forceful, but you loved it. The feeling of this mans tongue inside your mouth was making you even wetter.
“Fuck,” he groaned as his hands traveled and started to unbutton your jeans. When he was done he pushed them and your thongs down your legs until they were on your mid thigh and his fingers were slowly moving upwards towards your center. “Want me to touch you?”
“Yes,” you sigh and he stops, again. “Yes, sir.” You correct yourself and he continues.
“Good girl,” his rough voice speaks as he starts to move his finger up and down your slit. Making you let out a louder moan. “Such a good girl.”
Then suddenly one of his fingers pushes into you and you let out a moan. Bakugou's free hand pulls your shirt over you head and your bra down, freeing your tits.
“You like that, huh? You like my finger deep inside you cunt?”
“Yes, sir.” He pushes another finger inside you. Your walls hugging them tightly as he thrusts them in and out of you. Your cunt making squelching noises.
“Fucking hell, you're so wet.”
“J-Just for you, sir.” Bakugou's lips crush to yours again, forcing his tongue inside your mouth as his fingers continue giving you pleasure. His lips leave yours, a string of saliva between your mouths as his lips starts to kiss and suck at your neck. Leaving marks.
“You're mine now, you whore. I can take you however I want and I'll make sure everyone knows that you're mine,” he grunts and your arms grip his arms. His biceps hard against your hands. You keep moaning and his fingers starts to quicken their pace. Bakugou adds yet another finger, making it three inside you now.
“Your cunt is fucking swallowing my fingers. You're such a slut (y/n). You wanna cum? All over my fingers?”
“Yes Bakugou,” you moan. His fingers stop and then his left hand is gripping your throat, making it hard for you to breathe.
“Who said you could call me that? You call me sir, whore.”
“Yes, sir.” His hand doesn't leave your throat, his fingers continue to fuck you. The feeling of his hand around your throat excites you. The tension is building up and you know you're close.
“Cum. Cum all over my fingers, (y/n),” and you do. Oh, how you do. Every sound that is erotic, you were making those. Drenching his fingers with your juices, his fingers still deep inside you. The feeling of emptiness comes when he removes them, licking his fingers clean of your juices as he gazes at you. His vermillion eyes never leaving yours.
“Fucking delicious,” he says as he sucks his fingers clean. The sight making you wet again.
When he's done he moves so he's chest to chest with you. His left hand placed on your chin, lifting it so you're looking up at him.
“You're mine now and I take care of what's mine. If you dissobey me, you will be punished.” Noddig your head as he picks up your shirt from the ground and you fixing your bra. “I believe those 5 minutes are over.”
-
Day 8.
It's been three days since you last saw Bakugou Katsuki. Three days and all of these three days you hadn't stopped smiling. Thinking back to where he had made you cum and marked your neck. Purple love bites covering your beautiful neck. You could still taste him on your lips, and you wanted those lips on you again. All over your body.
You had fallen. In a week you had gone from being scared and wanting to go home, to wanting to stay and never be found by anyone other than him.
When you and Bakugou had returned to the house you were both silent. Kirishima had greeted you at the front door. Bakugou didn't say goodbye, he just left and it make your heart ache but you also knew what kind of man he was. Kirishima had walked you to your room, but before he closed the door you had asked if you could by any chance get a clock to your room, so you could know if it was day or night outside. The morning after when Kaminari bought you your breakfast, a little digital clock was also brought in.
Looking at the clock now, it was showing 8PM. You were in bed as you heard the door unlocking. In walked Kaminari and handed you a note, leaving fast after. Opening it you read the handwritten message from a muscular, spiky haired man.
“Take a shower and wait for me on the bed naked. Dissobey and you'll see what happens.”
Biting your lip you think if you should be a bad girl and get punished, but you were also still horny from three nights ago. You had wanted his dick and when he didn't give it to you, you longed for it even more. You also knew that Bakugou was an alpha male. What he wants; he gets, and wheter if you want it or not, he won't give it to you unless he wants to.
Jumping up from the bed you practically ran into the bathroom and started showering. You skipped taking your hair as you had washed it the night before. When you were done you started drying yourself which took about 2 minutes. Wrapping the towel around your torso, you walk back to the room just in time when Bakugou walks in; wearing his signature black military boots, green cargo pants and a black tank. His leather jacket is on and in his left hand he holds a red rope.
“You're not naked or lying on the bed.”
“I just finished showering.”
“Did I ask for a reason?”
“No.”
“Get on the bed. On your back. Arm's over your head.” His comanding tone sending shivers done your spine as you take off the towel in front of him, it landing on a pile around yourself as you walk to the bed. Lying flat on your back. Backugou walks towards the bed, picks up your arms and ties them together and fasten them to the headboard. “Struggle all you want. You're not getting away!”
You could feel your arousal getting worse. You wanted him. His arms around you. His body on you. His fingers and tongue to feel all of you. His cock deep inside you.
You're awaken from your thoughts as you feel Bakugou's fingers pinch your nipple. “Eye's on me all the time.” Nodding your head and biting your lip at him, his eyes still on you. He pulls away to remove his clothing, his leather jacket landing heavily on the floor and his tank following suit. You wait for him to unbuckle his belt and remove the rest of his clothes, but he doesn't. Instead he moves to the bed, his body hovering above yours. He leans forward and bites at the side of your neck; where your hickey was fading away.
“I need to refresh my mark on you,” his dark voice speaks. He sucks. Bites. And licks at your throat, making you whimper. You want to touch him, but you can't as you are literally tied to the bed. His lips start to travel down your body. His mouth goes around your left nipple and suck on the erect bud. He doesn't give it a lot of attention as he starts to go even lower. His tongue leaving a trail of saliva in his way as he leaves a sloppy kiss on your clit, taking you by surprise.
“I wanna fucking hear you scream my name when I pleasure you,” and he pushes his tongue into your folds, making you moan out loud and pull your arm; the rope digging into your skin. The pain giving you pleasure. His tongue continues to thrust in and out of you as his arms spread your legs wider. His palms are placed on the inside of your thighs, holding them down so you won't try to close them.
“B-Bakug-gou,” you moan out and watch him, watching you. His vermillion eyes gazing at you as his tongue pleasures you. His eyes never leaving you as he starts to lick you up and down, side to side. His face burried between your legs. His lips soon stop and land on your clit and start to suck, making you buck your hips at the tension, the sensation making you see stars. You want to cum, so badly.
His lips sucks on your clit as one finger pushes into you, your walls tightening around his finger making you moan louder.
“You wanna cum, (y/n)?”
“Y-Yes Bakugou.”
“Are you close?” He adds another finger. The tension around your cunt and belly getting worse, meaning you're close.
“Yes!” And they're gone. His lips, tongue and fingers. You whimper, wanting them back on you.
“You'll cum when I say you can.” He removes himself from you and unbuckle his belt. His fingers then working slowly on his pants to remove them. Looking him up and down you see that his boots are gone, he must've removed them while he was down and working you up.
“You want my cock?”
“Yes.” Your answer comes quickly and he removes his pants and breifs in one go, his cock slapping against his lower abdomen. You can see some pre cum on the tip. Your eyes never leaving his glistening cock as he comes closer to you; your face to be precise.
“Open up for me.” Opening your mouth you don't have time to react as he pushes his thick cock inside your mouth, the head of his cock hitting the back of your throat making you gag. “Mhm, fuck yes.”
He grabs a hold of your hair, it stings at the roots but it doesn't matter 'cause he's fucking your mouth and you could cum just by him doing that. The only sound in your room being him grunting and you gagging. You can taste him, the sweet salty pre cum on your taste buds, making you want more but he removes himself from you yet again and then climbes on the bed only to grab your hips and flip you over; landing on your front. Face burried in your pillow. He pulls your hips up, your weight resting on your forearms as his fingers rubs your slit. You can hear how wet you are when he's touching you.
“Spread your legs.” You spread them as far as you can, your knees sinking into the mattress. Soon you can feel him, the head of his cock at your entrence, but he's not giving it to you, not yet. “What do you want, slut?” he asks and slaps your buttcheeks. The friction giving you pleasure as you moan at the pain, welcoming it.
“You. Your cock. Inside me, Bakugou.” And he thrusts into you. Taking you by surprise at both the action and the size of his massive cock inside you. A slap on your left cheek has you moaning louder. The feeling of his cock inside is mesmerizing. It's making you sink even deeper. Feel something deeper for this man.
His hips start moving in a hard pace. His thighs slapping against yours. One hand grabs a hold of your hair and he pulls on it, hard, making you having a hard time breathing in this position, but still. The way his cock hits you at the right places makes you groan and moan. Calling out his name here and now.
“Louder. I want to fucking hear you,” another slap to your ass cheek as he continues to ram into you. The tension between your legs growing at a steady pace. His free hand comes forward and he starts to do figure eight motions on your clit.
“Baku-goooou,” you moan and close your eyes. Tears forming in your eyes and you feel yourself growing tighter and tighter around his cock. You were so close.
“Not yet, slut. You're not cuming just yet,” he draws out of you, leaving you a whimpering mess. He turns you over agan so you're on your back. He straddles your right thigh, it being between his legs as your other one is pressed aganst his chest, your foot beside his head. He enters you again, his cock easily sliding into your cunt. “Fuck. You're even tighter in this position.”
“Mhm, Bakugou. Fuck me,” you moan and as you look at him. The lust in his vermillion eyes, the smirk planted on his lips he starts to fuck you. Hard. In this new position, it's making his cock go even deeper than before. Feeling as he has entered a new territory. “Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.”
“You're close again, aren't ya?” He grunts. His body now towering over you. One of his hands grabs you by the throat, his grip tightening, as his other one starts to give your clit some attention again. “You wanna cum (y/n)? You wanna cum all over my cock?”
“God, yes Bakugou,” you scream out at him. His body and hair is damp from sweat. He grunts and throws out “fuck” every now and then as he continues to pump his cock inside your wetness. The grip on your throat is making it harder to breathe. You're panting now, wanting so badly to cum.
He lets go of your leg, only to place it beside him on the bed. His body now over yours, his hand still on your throat as he's leaning his weight on the other one that's beside your head.
“Fucking cum all over my cock, (y/n). Cum, you slut.” And. You. Do.
“B-BAKUU-GOOU!” You scream out as you milk his cock with your orgasm. Your juices making his cock glide in and out of you so easily.
“F-Fffuuuuuuuuck,” he screams as he reaches his own peak, cuming inside of your cunt. His warm seed filling you up all from inside. His grip on your throat getting tighter as he continues to come down from his orgasm. His grunts and moans like music to your ears. The pleasure of seeing him cumis utterly outstanding. His eyes shut close tightly and his face showing only one thing; pleasure.
As soon as he's gotten his breathing under control he lets go of your throat. Both of his hands now placed beside your head, his body hovering above yours. His eyes are still closed and you're still watching him. You want to touch his face and as you try to move you remember that you're tied to the bed. You're too embarrassed to ask him to tie you up, and you're not even sure he'd even do that.
Bakugou opens his eyes and looks at you. You can't read him, this man was a hard man to read. You gulp as you watch him untie your hands, his cock still inside you. When you're finally free, you rub your hands on your wrist and avoind looking into his eyes.
“Oi,” slowly lifting your face to look at him. He captures your mouth with his. His tongue invading yours. “You're fucking mine. And nobody, nobody, lays a fucking finger on you. Only me. You got that?”
“Y-Yes.”
“Good. Now, be a good girl and let me fuck your mouth with my tongue,” you open up your mouth to him and your tongues wrestle with each other. He then starts thrusting inside you again. “Gonna fuck you all night (y/n). Mark you with my cum,” and he does. Today's worries, you leave them for tomorrow as you're embraced by Bakugou.

going off that last ask: loz/yazoo character opinion? i wanna read your thoughts!
Ohooooo, I was waiting for something like this!!! Thank you, Vee :) I’ll do my best to explain <333
Starting off with Yazoo:
First impression: Calm, level-headed, perhaps a bit shy. What surprised me the first time watching was how deep his voice was. He’s got this grace about him that leaves you simply... staring. I interpreted the introductory scene where Loz nearly cries and Yaz tells him not to as comforting-- Which I think is what a good chunk of Rem fans see it as? Overall, pretty, but not much else.
Impression now: I think he’s fucking ruthless under that dainty face, if you ask me. Honestly, it’d be right in line with Sephiroth. I think out of the both of his brothers, he gets along better with Kadaj, but if he wasn’t around, I doubt Yazoo would have nearly enough investment in their quest. He comes across as apathetic and uncompassionate, perhaps even a little haughty. I feel like his relationship with Loz is tolerable at best, and downright acidic at worst. With Loz being the way he is, I wouldn’t be surprised if Yazoo and Kadaj had to keep an eye on him at all times, just in case. I feel, though, at the end of the day Yazoo does care about his brothers, and would risk his life for them. It’s in his bones, and he can’t help it, whether he likes it or not. Still very pretty though, lmao.
Favourite moment: Been forever sinced I watched Advent Children, and, unfortunately, Yazoo my beloved doesn’t get many scenes. I’ll have to go with the introductory scene, as it gives us an idea of who they are and what their dynamic is like right off the bat.
Idea for a story: I feel like any story with Yazoo inevitably ends up involving Loz, so I’ll make a joint bullet-point for them at the end of the post <3
Unpopular opinion: Mmm, probably the more apathetic, if not downright spiteful characterisation. If my friend @vesaniens​’s experience is to be believed, then at least Back In Her Day it was far more common for Yazoo and Loz to be buddy-buddy while Kadaj goes off and does his own thing. I can see the appeal in that dynamic, and understand where it comes from. There’s alot of ways you can interpret ‘don’t cry, Loz,‘ and as it is the introductory scene, however you do sets down the foundation for all that follows.
Favourite relationship: The Remnants aren’t characters I can find preferable ships for in-canon, so romantic is off the table here. I will say, though, a dynamic where Genesis and Yazoo are mentor and mentee would be downright tooth-rotting. Genesis preening him, taking him out to nice places, showing him fine literature-- I love it! I don’t see much talk about how the Remnants would relate to Gen and Geal, and I think that’s a damn shame. Plus, Yazoo can then quietly rub it in either of his brothers’ faces whenever he gets annoyed with them. To pick another, though, definitely him and Loz-- Especially if it is strained. It’s very clear they’re meant to contrast each other. Yazoo is lithe, subtle and venemous; Loz is big, loud and sensitive. I personally have a huge soft spot for fics where they recouncile their differences and learn to truly love each other.
Favourite headcanon: Honestly, I feel like I need to make a general headcanon post for the Rems as a whole. They’re all inherently tied, so a change to one of them usually affects the other two. To touch up on one from a theory I read about a year ago now(God, has it been that long?), I like the idea that the Remnants got a little bit of Genesis and Angeal mixed in. They’re like 90% Seph, give or take, but the other 10%~? Now that’s where the fun begins baby!!! In this case, the donor would be Genesis, and Yazoo would’ve gotten the more passive-aggressive, snarky, preening aspects of his character. The resentment and feelings of  inferiority towards Sephiroth end up getting mixed into Kadaj, however I don’t want to elaborate on this too long lest I go off-topic. On a more crack-heavy note, I feel like if you waved a laser-pointer in front of him, he’d be transfixed. He’s too dignified to actually leap at it... But he likes watching :)
Now, as for Loz:
First impression: Big phuckign himbo, idiotte of a man. Probably can’t even buckle his own boots. Playtime??? Bitch NO, it’s not playtime! WHY ARE YOU CRYING??? But yeah, my initial view fell alot more in line with what I think is the most common interpretation of him. His excecution leans heavily to Big Dumb Idiot Man Who Cries When He Sees A Duckling.
Impression now: Baby. Poor fucking baby. Honestly, that could be said for all the Remnants, but I don’t think Loz’s struggle is discussed nearly enough. I’ve talked about this before, but, for me, it’s painfully clear that Loz is essentially a child in a grown man’s body. Writer Kazushige Nojima has Loz’s lines about playing during his fight with Tifa were based off his own son, and has described him as “missing a little something upstairs” --And looking at him through that lens, things become alot more disturbing. He’s Sephiroth’s love for Jenova; a doting, yearning, infantilising love. There’s an innocence to Loz, something sweet, something light and airy-- And to have him fight, have him torture, have him kill... just, man. This jarring dichotomy between such hulking, brutal strength, this bringer of destruction, and this kid who wants his mother. Is he aware? Does he truly understand the weight of his actions? Can he? Most of this, admittedly, is a bit of a stretch, but I love this doof alot jhdhjfdjhs can you blame me?
Favourite moment: Oh, definitely the crying scene-- You must be real tired of hearing that again. Though, in Loz’s case, it sets up his sensitivity, and his dynamic with his brothers-- Yazoo in particular.
Idea for a story: Same answer as Yaz.
Unpopular opinion: I think my more infantile view of Loz as a whole is semi-unpopular? Fandom seems pretty split on whether he’s just a himbo or actual babyman. Again, hard to tell, what with most Rem content and discussion being several years old and tricky to find. I’d be curious to have a discussion on this! But yeah, if we’re talking about the wider fanbase, I think my intense appreciation of him is definitely unusual. Alot of OG fans see the Rems as tropey villains, and while I will argue that it makes sense considering they’re fragments of a bigger, badder, more complex villain, I don’t think Loz is nearly as shallow as most would have you believe.
Favourite relationship: As discussed with Yazoo, there aren’t any canon characters I consistently ship the Remnants with -- Especially not for Loz, in particular when viewing him through that youthful lens -- Though as with everything, I am flexible :) On the platonic side... Honestly, I think Loz would just be a big softie who hangs around everyone. If Angeal was baking, Loz would definitely chip in to help, though he might cause more trouble than if he stayed aside. I think he’d try and reach out to Sephiroth, only for his affections to be rejected because the latter is Bad With Emotions and is torn between on whether the Remnants are a nuisance he hands off to his old friends or his children who he wants to scoop up and carry off into the vast cosmos.
Favourite headcanon: Loz eats alot of shit he isn’t meant to. Like, shit that would kill twenty grown men. At least once he has mistaken stinging nettle for mint, and spent the next two or three days scraping his tongue constantly. Would chase a ball if thrown, no questions asked; try playing frisbee with this dude, and you’ll end up on the other side of town by the end of it. If you try and pick him up, he just slumps, like a big, brawny ragdoll cat-- Probably purrs like one, too. Definitely appreciates a good scratch behind the ear :)
There’s like... probably mountains more, but this is what I’ve been able to coax out after a day of writing this on and off. Again, thank you so much for asking!! I’ve been meaning to ramble about the Remnants for ages now, but didn’t know how to go about it.
Aight, as promised:
Story idea: This is one I’ve had on my mind for years now. I haven’t gotten around to it, as it’d require greater familiarity with FFVII’s world as a whole, but the premise is that Yazoo and Loz escape far out into the countryside, and end up in a village. Yazoo soon falls ill, and Loz has to provide a living working for a local farmer. Their dynamic is initially strained, and without Kadaj to hold them together, they nearly end up splitting before arrival. As time passes, and as they grow closer to the community, Yazoo’s grumbles fade into concerned murmers. Slowly, he begins to trust Loz more, and Loz learns to take more responsibility. But as their friendship blossoms, Yazoo’s body withers. Bedbound, he wonders how Loz would fare without him, if he could make it. I imagine this ends up leading to Loz deliberately blowing their cover to get needed medical help from WRO, turning themselves in during the process.
Again, there’s probably more to it, but to be honest even I don’t know. That’s the great thing about creativity :) You never know where you end up!
Thank you for asking, and feel free to ask more if you’re curious! This goes for elaboration on characters already asked, certain headcanons, and even pairings! Also, feel free to add on with your own thoughts! Whether they be additions, refutations, or so on. Fandom discussion(provided it’s civil qwq) can be so much fun!
