Pairing: Demi god!!Yuji x siren!!reader
Jjk Greek god au mini series
Summary: your song has never failed you, so why is this man being so difficult.
Content warnings: fem bodied reader, you're a siren, little bit of violence, some inaccuracies Yuji is in his 20s here
Genre: suggestive
Tumblr media
Yuujis whole life was centered by the sea, drawn to it and raised to navigate it Yuji had never learned how to fear it. Yujis grandfather was a sailor, and taught him all he knew about the ocean, teaching him how to continue working the family fish market.
Yuji was a natural, and it really helped how physically gifted he is, having the ability to swim incredibly long distances, run strangely fast and impeccable strength by age 10, so Yuji ‘s only real limitations were that he couldn't go to the cove by the far end of the shore.
"Never go there no matter what" he remembers being constantly told growing up. Which would be the major lesson Yuji takes with him after the passing of his grandfather.
Yuji wishes he knew more about his family before his passing, his grandpa was the only bridge between him and the knowledge of his parents. For some odd reason nobody in the village knows a thing about them, so their legacy died with grandfather.
Eventually Yuji learns to navigate his grief and attempts to continue a positive attitude. Waking up even earlier to start his work for the day was new part of his routine. Getting the nets ready and setting sail by the time the sun was rising. Yuji liked the change of pace,and although he wouldn't want to admit it aloud he enjoyed the solitude of the early mornings.
Though sometimes he swore he could hear something, a song of some sort. Beautifully enchanting, velvet and soft, almost lulling him to sleep. Yuji thought he was imagining it at first, as he sat quietly on the edge of his boat, letting the gentle warm morning air pass through him.
He had s strange overwhelming urge to find its source.
Go to her his mind repeatedly told him and for a while he could fight it. But today he finds himself putting the nets back, jumping from the docks and running down the beach. His thoughts are limited and he can feel his brain battling with a compelling force.
Question is what is this force ?
He thinks this while he climbs the rocky barrier of the cove. Looking down onto the separated mini beach,he spots you. Sitting in the calm waters seemingly washing your hair singing to yourself.
As he approaches he gains some control over his actions calling out to you ."I dont think you should be here" he says, you dont even look at him, keeping your focus on your hair.
"And whys that?" Softly you respond, "well I'm told it's not safe here" he started to wade over to you reaching his hand out. You turn to look at him questionably. He's pretty, for a human, but just how was he so resilient against your song?The answer to your question isn't too important for he wont be able to resist you for any longer.
Turning to face him fully, "Then what brings you here?" You ask sweetly tilting your head looking up at him through your eyelashes. He visibly blushes and stumbles trying to find a reason that doesn't make him sound crazy.
You nod along at his prolonged answer, noting how his eyes dart between your eyes and your chest. Probably trying to figure out if your naked.
Cute
You think maybe the mystery of your nudity is why theres a tent forming between his legs. Clearly visible through his robes.
You slowly stand getting closer to him, effectively shutting him up to get this over with. Yuji takes in all your curves mesmerized by your form but turning his head to be respectful.
You've never had a man do that. Actively resisting his urges. Usually they throw themselves at you blindly costing their lives. Yuji can feel his mind go blank, as you slowly touch his shoulders guiding him deeper into the water.
Suddenly it's as though he gains conciousness, realizing that he is now nearly chest deep into the tide. He struggles against your grip to which, you dig your claws into his arms returning to your scaly form, and trying to pull him under.
Luckily his survival instinct is on his side, using his strength to finally escape you, quickly swimming back to shore and running. Stunned all you do is watch as he goes, blood dripping from his biceps.
A man has never escaped before, you think
Is he even a man?
Your intrigue gets the better of you, deciding to indulge him in hopes of better understanding.
This game has began.

Again! Wrench Headcanons:
Guess this 28/41 year old is my hyperfixation for a while.[Age depends on which game he's in. WD2 has him at canonically 28 while Legion makes him canonically 41 years old.] This is about the length of my Deacon Rambles post...
Was a high school drop out at some point. Always getting in trouble for skipping classes, taking shit apart, having his hood/mask on, fighting because he didnt get along with people, etc etc. He hated school.
I see him as the type to have been a drummer in a band at one point. Eventually the band just fell apart but he has some of their songs on his phone still.
Loved the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. In his mind, it had a badass sound track. 7 Nation Army by The White Stripes and Black Sheep by Metric and Brie Larson were real bangers in his mind.
Reeks of beer and gasoline most of the time. Change my mind.
Deadpool is this man's icon. Some of his jokes are inspired by jokes from the comics or movies. Has posters, funkos, obviously the comics and movies, and even dressed up as his own punk version of deadpool loosely based on the funko mini. His personal favorite mini was the chicken costume.
Has a unicorn stuffed animal himself.
Also likes Spider-Punk.
Likes Motorcycles a little bit more than cars.
Detective films? Yes. Action Movies? Definitely. Sci-Fi? Hell Yeah! Horror? Maybe not so much.
People seem to be unable to decide whether Wrench is Bi or Pan. I personally think he'd be Pansexual.
Doesn't like cleaning as he states ingame. Will clean if the mess starts to bother him. Or if Sitara makes him.
High metabolism which is why he's so thin.
Throwns in tons of movie/game references when speaking expecting people to get them and then has to explain them when they dont. Definitely geeks out when someone does.
You know that one audio trend with the person singing CPR and someone else yelling "Language"? He'd be the singer and Sitara would be the one yelling at him to mind his language.
Sends the most odd videoes at the most random of times.
Also the kind of guy that might not respond until like and hour or 2 later.
Tries to be pretty quiet in the mornings, besides the music blasting in his earbuds/headphones.
The more I think about the more I start to believe that his "bad driving" is just a thing he makes people believe until you see his dumb ass in a race and this fucker blows you away with his skills. Then you start to really understand why he can do perfect drifts getting away from the police or gangs in a chace.
Due to his always racing thoughts, he sometims forgets some things. Like he gets sent out to take out the trash, goes to the kitchen, forgets why he went in there, does a few circles to try and remember, then gives up and goes back to his room or workspace. It'll hit him like 20 minutes later.
Favorite food is probably Tacos. Pizza close in like 2nd or 3rd place, maybe.
Decent at voice impressions, if you couldnt tell.
Oh, and for those who absolutely need them, have some romance headcanons too:
Didn't show his face to his S/O until like 6 months into the relationship at the least. He was so fucking nervous too.
Wouldn't even fully open up about his past until probably a year in at the least.
Prepare for cheesy love songs, matching key chains, corny pick up lines, bits of playful teasing, and a lot of small physical touches. (Mostly hand holding but would wrap his arms around his s/o's waist) His s/o also wrapping their arms around his waist drives him nuts.
Needs a lot of reassurance that his s/o loves him. I wouldnt say constantly but quite a few times in the relationship, especially at the beginning.
He isnt exactly scared of commitment as he had a husband at one point. Key word: "Had". Dont expect him to fully settle down though. He still plans to fight until he is sure this battle is really over.
Two Words: Super. Clingy.
Might forget an anniversary, dont hold it against him. He sometimes forgets what he had for breatfast 15 minutes ago.
As I've mentioned before, he does not like kids. Don't expect a family with him.
No planned dates unless his s/o is the one who plans them. He kinda just does things whenever if both have the free time.
Makes sure to dial down his weirdness just a little so his s/o is comfortable. He takes things slow if they want them to be.
Was definitely taking forever to actually ask his s/o out. Hoped they would do it first but then got impatient after a while and just blurted out everything.
This is getting too long. Im done for now.

Ok so, I really need to know if you have any personal headcanons on ASL brothers because I need more serotonin for the day, btw I adore your art! Lots of love 💖
Thank you so much for this request! I don't actually have many head cannons for them in their universe tbh. I do have a couple for a modern au though!
this post turned out kinda long ":)
First of all: this is them 👇
Tumblr media
Anyway,
Original universe headcanons:
-Ace is proud of his freckles. He doesn't much know what his mother looks like, but he's seen his father's appearance and knows that Rodger doesn't have freckles. So he sees his mother through his freckles :)
-despite his name, Ace is the only allosexual within the trio. I do think ace is aromantic though. I just don't think romantic relationships suit any of them, personally
-sabo cuts his own hair. I read a SBS submission asking oda why sabo grew his hair out. Oda responded saying he does to hide his scar. He said that sabo doesn't exactly see it as a badge of honor. Which makes me uhhhhhhhh very sad yuh huh. But it also makes me imagine he cuts his own hair because no one else can get it right. How I draw him, his bangs are uneven so that his scarred eye is covered and his working eye doesn't get blocked out. It looks fine now, but the first couple times he cut his hair were ✨disasters✨
Modern au:
They share an apartment and it is very apparent who's room is luffy's by level of messiness. Don't get me wrong, Ace's room is messy, but it's messy in an organized way. Unlike Luffy, who is just... Who knows if there's a floor over there. No one's ever seen it.
Sabo's room is so clean it's boarder-line sterile. It also just doesn't look lived in at all. If he invited you over and you saw his room, you'd think he was a serial killer.
Sabo and Ace both have their own mini fridges in their rooms that are under lock and key so that Luffy cant get into them. little fuckin gremlin man...
There is a tally board on their fridge that keeps track of who wins in wrestling matches that break out sometimes, much like in the show.
Sanji owns a restaurant near their apt that they always go to. The three of them have a chokehold on the "Big-Ass Bowl of Spicy-Ass Ramen eaten the fastest" title as they are currently in a three way tie that not they nor anyone else can beat.
Ace flirts with Sanji and his brothers give him flack for it, saying he's just trying to get a free meal!! support your local businesses, Ace! pay for you meal!!
Luffy always be challenging his brothers to spontaneous races and is always surprised when he inevitably loses. Sorry lil guy, they just got longer legs than you, not your fault.
They love trying new weird food. Whenever they see some kind of afront of nature that a snack-food company put out, like buffalo sauce flavored pretzels or plant based jerky, they'll absolutely buy and try it. It never goes well. Ever.
Ace and Sabo are the main Money Makers for their household. Luffy is always trying to get a job, though. Under the off chance he's actually hired though, his employment is usually terminated sometime within his first day. He's trying his best, man.
Whenever theyre having an issue in their household that they dont know how to combat, they call Dadan for advice. Kinda like those scavenger monkey themed guys from the beginning of Skypeia.
Thats all i have for now, sorry for any typo's. I could add on to this list later if I have any new ideas. i'll probably draw some of that modern au, too.
thanks again for the ask! i hope this got to you within your serotonin needing day!

i will be giving mercury @akitachi​ the password to my blog and they will be responding to the dms/messages from the weekend asking for the url of the account from the screenshots. i am sorry i have not responded to many of your dms and asks,, i was mentally preparing to but i simply cannot deal with it right now KLASDLK so mercury will be doing that on my behalf. 
i still dont intend to release the url of that blog publicly as i do not want them harassed, and i don’t mean to rehash this issue on the dash again fdsfksldf i just wanted to explain why i need to step back for a bit. that’ll be the last of it though seeing as they’re being cooperative in DMs and agreeing to change/credit so as long as that remains the case, the rest will be handled between me, the other authors, and them.

This one’s written in the narrative and perspective of phantom
Warnings: mistreating ghouls
After hours of talking with him I had to leave, I didn’t want to but I also didn’t want to stress papa out more then he already is. I wave goodbye to my new friend and tell them ill see them tomorrow. Once I get back to the practice room Swiss sees how I was zoning out as I tuned my guitar. “Hey ant, you doing ok today? You seem kinda outta it” Swiss asked me, I look up to him snapping out of the trance my mind had me in. “Hm? Oh, umm..yeah I’m all good….do you know of ghouls that, uhh, glow in the dark?” I ask him sounding more nervous than I meant to. “Oh, water ghouls? Has rain not told you about deep sea water ghouls before? You know how rain likes to brag about his element every now and then.” Swiss tells me before messing up my hair and walking to his makeshift mini stage. “I need to talk to rain!” I whisper to myself before getting up to my side of the practice stage. Practice felt like forever for once and I think the others could tell it was bothering me. After what felt like forever practice ended and I rush off to put my guitar away so I could catch up to rain, todays was his off day so sodo had offered to put his guitar up for him. Rain was already a good bit down the hall when I catch up to him panting from running. “You ok phant?” Rain asks me slowing down his walking, “I- haah- I wanted to ask you- huhh- shit- about deep sea ghouls.” I finally was able to spit out panting heavily. “Oh, sure, but I do wanna know why you wanna know, you can tell me back in my room if its like some kind of secret.” Rain says to me, he sounded slightly curious but willing to tell me. After a few minutes of walking and talking about random things we finally get to rains room, the lights where a lot more dark and had something covering them to make them a different color, it was like being underwater but not. I sit down on one of rains chairs in his mini living room, it was a cool little area, I hadnt thought of making a mini living room in my room before. Thats beside the point though, once rain sits down on his couch he asks me “so, what’s got you interested in deep sea ghouls all of a sudden? You usually dont care for this kind of thing.” I look over to rain almost jumping before saying “you remember the ghoul that was summoned a few weeks ago?” Rain looks at me thinking for a second, “wait, wait, are you saying the ghoul that we all where told was feral and dangerous, is not only a deep sea water ghoul, but also not so dangerous?” He says to me. “Yeah, he’s not at all what she said, they’re really nice, and funny, but they-“ rain cuts me off before I could finish “sensitive to light?” Rain finished fore me. “Yeah, I brought a lot of blankets down there to block out light and when they opened their eyes they stared at me like they had never seen a ghoul like me before” I pause for a bit before continuing “h-he also was glowing, the colors where so pretty but so dull, l-like they are sick, or hurt” I move my legs up in the chair hugging them now thinking about it more. Rain takes a second to think, “ant, dont freak out when I tell you this ok?” I nod looking towards rain instead of the floor. “That is a deep sea ghoul, they aren’t usually on the surface, like ever, he is probably hurt, what colors did he glow?” Rain asked me, I take a moment to think before responding “I think…purple blue and..red, does that mean anything?” I say hoping I remember correctly. “Okay, so they are hurt…I’ve got a idea, ok? But you’ve got to trust me” rain gets up and goes to his bathroom looking for stuff. “O-ok? But what are you going to do?” I ask confused. “Im going to help, you just have to trust me”

do you have any gubby scenarios i am DYING for old men in love and so far you are the only person in this fandom i have seen since 2020 have correct takes on them
(PUNCHING THE AIR IN TRIUMPH) YESSS IVE BEEN DEEMED THE QUEEN OF OLD MEN IN LOVE CONTENT
im actually writing a vampire au fic right now featuring gubby and boomer ... but i wont bring that up until its closer to completion
(right now i have it roughly a third done before i do my final edits, but note that's because i just do basic planning, rough draft, and then final draft. its a pretty simple writing process and its why i dont write chaptered fics)
since you asked for gubby specifically ill focus on them especially considering theres a lot of boomer content out there but no love for the space man and the man who loves space.
read more and a headcanon dump time. you know how it is!
bubby almost DEFINITELY made the first moves to gman. i like to think it was encouraged by coomer after bubby was like btw im polyamorus and i also cant stop thinking about gman can i go ask him out. and then coomer became #1 hypeman and would try and force them into scenarios together LMFAO
gman isnt really ever forced into anything though? luckily for bubby he DID hold interest in the bastard and would go along with coomer very unsubtly trying to have them get some one-on-one time
during tommy's birthday party bubby almost definitely started flirting with gman. something about the atmosphere making even mister money bags space god start to relax and have fun a little was when he decided to make his first moves on the guy despite having eyes for him earlier
The train incident was his first attempt to talk but we all know how often gman cameos around in half life 1... bubby almost certainly took notice of black mesa's Latest Old Man Babe
gman probably barely knew how to process being flirted with at first because he's used to being treated with fear and such, and when he does get flirted with it's usually in a way that's like "oh, you're so above me", but bubby would approach it in the way you'll approach someone at a bar
as in shitty pick-up lines and very overt "you're hot as fuck, make out with me" comments. but the phrasing is more bubby's personality than bar etiquette - he's not exactly romeo.
eventually once gman gets used to bubby flirting with him after a while though the script WILL get flipped on him. because gman is no fool. in fact he is VERY observant. half of the time he spent listening to bubby's nonsense flirting (and, occasionally getting responses he didn't know he was even capable of, like an involuntary "oh my" and a blush when he said a particularly romantic line that was probably fed to him by bubby's personal cupid, dr. coomer) he would be picking up on what made bubby a little more nervous to say, a little more hopeful in how gman would respond, and what he seemed to like to hear from dr coomer
after constant passive reception of bubby's moves on him he'll fire back onto bubby with everything he had observed up to that point. even the little comments he'd whine to benrey, coomer, and even gordon when he was willing to listen to bubby. all those offhanded whiny things like "why can't he just x already" would come BITING HIM BACK.
at the end of the encounter bubby is probably rendered speechless and gman toys with him a little more through baby's first kiss from a god. he and coomer would have their own little mini celebration about this later
( and, a little bonus, despite coomer's encouragement, bubby would never actually ask gman out. he's very stubborn on waiting to be confessed to instead, which is why it took so long for him to get with coomer after literal years of flirting. gman ended up learning this too and had to research how the hell you ask someone out since he had literally never had to do that before - he was usually getting asked out and rejecting people because they were doing it for some kind of personal benefit / he doesn't have much interest in dating randoms in the first place. )

[Merman] Music Keeps me Sane
Merman x Musician Male Reader
Marlow
Warnings: Some slightly angsty parts, mention of losing a loved one, comforted by a merbabe
Masterlist
----------------------------------
The morning breeze blew gently across the shore as the waves softly crashed against the rocks and sand. A man with (H/c) hair sat on top of a pile of rocks that acted as a pier of sorts. He held an old violin, very clearly well loved.
He stood up, violin and bow in hand and started playing.
It was a short yet well done song, ending with him dropping his arms to hold the bow and violin by his side. A burst of emotion can over him as he threw both the violin and its bow into the ocean. Tears brimmed his eyes as he watched the waves carry it some way before sinking.
He sat down again and pulled his knees to his chest, resting his chin on them as he looked out over the ocean. He sat there for a while just staring until he decided to move elsewhere. The soft fog dimmed out the sun, casting a nice light over the shore.
After a short walk he arrived at a small cove that had a watery path to a pretty sizable cave. He hopped along the rocks that made a natural path and went to the back of the cave. There was some chairs and a small table set up along with an old ice chest.
He walked over to the chairs leaning against the wall and grabbed one, opening it and setting it on the mini shore. He took his socks and shoes off, rolled up his pant legs and sat down in the chair. A sigh left his lips as he leaned back and closed his eyes, feeling the cold water hit his ankles.
Maybe 30 or so minutes had passed before he opened his eyes again after being totally lost in his head. He looked up and around the black sand and gravel before seeing the violin he threw earlier. His brows furrowed as he looked around, not seeing anyone.
He stood from the folding chair and walked over to it, picking it up. The violin was waterlogged and totally unplayable. He flipped it over and water poured out along with a small crab and some sand.
Deciding it's for the better, he walked out of the cave and threw it again before walking back in. This time he saw the bow laying near where the violin has previously laid. You sighed before becoming confused.
"How the fuck..."
Before he could go grab the bow and throw it back he noticed the relatively calm water had shifted. He quickly hid behind a rock and waited to see what earthly, or unearthly, force was returning his old violin to him.
A head of deep blue, almost black hair popped up from the water holding the violin. They had pale skin and soft freckles that littered their cheeks. Their bright blue eyes scanned the area as they pulled themselves onto the shore showing a deep blue tail.
--2nd Person P.O.V.--
Your eyes widened as you looked on at the mer-person. You couldn't tell if it was a guy or a girl since they were wearing some type of top that hid their chest from view. You carefully came out from your hiding spot and started to walk over. You must have made too much noise because they turned around to look at you, shocked.
There were already almost fully underwater when you called out. "W-wait! Please hold on a moment!" You said running over to the water.
They were gone.
You sat down where they sat, right next to the violin bow. Hesitating for a moment, you picked up the bow and played with one of the strings that had broke loose. Your vision became blurred with tears and a few even dripped down on the back of your hands. You almost instinctively wiped your eyes, not noticing that someone had been watching you.
The waves gently washed against your feet, making you look to them, your hands going back down to hold onto the bow. You looked up when you heard footsteps approach you. There was a man holding a familiar object to you in his hand and when you looked up to his face you recognized it.
Neither of you said anything as he walked over to you and sat next to you. He placed the violin between the two of you and let his feet touch the water.
"Why did you bring it back to me..."
You asked, not daring to look up to him. He didnt respond for a moment but when he did, it was another question. "Why did you throw it into the ocean?" You pulled your knees to your chest again and hid in them, trembling slightly.
"H-hey are you ok?" He asked, gently resting a hand on your shoulder. You jumped slightly but just kept to yourself. "Sorry... I um... Dont know what to say..." He said retracting his hand. There was silence again for a moment but it broke when the man spoke.
"I've listened to you every morning you play, y'know. So, when I saw you just throw it away like that I got worried..."
You hesitantly looked up to the other before looking away and out to the ocean. "Sorry if I bothered you..." He quickly shook his head, "No no! I love listening to you play! Its... Its beautiful." You bit your lip as tears started to well up again.
"Can I ask why you threw it or... Is it a bit much right now?" You just shook your head and sighed. "Its fine. It's probably easier for me to get it off my chest to a stranger anyway."
"Then I'll hold off on the introduction." He said with a smile looking over to you. You looked up to his eyes before looking away again. "Hey, uh, can I hug you? I know that's probably a weird and sudden question but-" You didnt care, you really needed a hug right now. You hugged the man and he hugged back.
Have you ever had one of those hugs that has that, feeling, y'know? That one that you've only experienced once in your life but it just feels so nice and you're always wondering when it'll happen again? Yeah. This is one of those hugs.
He gently rubbed your back and you started to shake again, tears coming back to your eyes for the umpteenth time today. He smelled like the ocean but it was almost comforting. "I'm s-sorry..." You mumbled, it was slightly muffled by that fact your face was buried in his shoulder. He rest his head on your shoulder and kept rubbing your back.
"Its ok. You have nothing to be sorry about." You kept hugging him before speaking softly. "Someone close, they passed away... R-recently... And I u-used to play-y-y..." You couldnt finish cause another wave of tears came on. He just hugged and rubbed your back gently. "Its ok, I know what you're trying to say."
He pulled away and looked down to you, cupping your face and wiping some tears away with his thumbs. "I'm sure that they wouldn't have wanted you to stop playing even though they're gone. It's more of..." He paused for a moment and glanced away. "Playing in memory of them."
You looked down to your feet and gently grabbed on of his hands. "I-I guess I didnt think of it that way..." He moved to lock his fingers with yours which made you look up again. "Its ok. You just think about the negative with how it hurts to remember. But forgetting is worse... That's just my opinion but..."
"No, you're right. I was so concerned with trying to forget the pain I... Didnt think about anything else."
He smiled which made you smile. "Would you like your violin back? Or can I take it as a keep sake?" You laughed softly. "Its ruined now anyway. Do what you will with it."
"Well, now that that's over, I'm Marlow. And I'm sure you already know by now but I'm a merman."
"(Y/N). I'm glad you're here Marlow." He tilts his head slightly. "Why wouldn't I be? I care about you even if you just learned of my existence." He said with a soft laugh and blush as he pulled his hands away. "Let's head back to your place? Maybe help take your mind off things more." Marlow spoke softly as he stood the two of you up.
"C'mon, let's go."

The Gift of Panic Pt#2
First part
--------------------------------------
After a moment of silence, the villain finially spoke.
"The last birthday present I got..." they started in a quiet, almost whispered tone, "was a bomb..."
"What!?" the hero replied in shock.
"Someone I cared about... though it would be funny to open my present before me as a joke..." they took a deep breath, "they didn't..."
Their voice cracked before they trailed off, and the quickly wiped at their face, abruptly standing up, keeping their back to the hero.
"I don't even know..." the hero replied, trailing off as well. They didnt know what to say, how to respond, what to do. What could they?
"Its fine I just," the villain started, before taking a deep, recomposing breath, "Sorry, I've never told anyone about it,"
"No no, it's okay. God, I can't even imagine..."
"Its alright, I got my revenge in the end," the villain replied, turning back toward the hero.
"Really? How?"
The villain looked at them with a confused expression, before it shifted into an amused smirk, "For legal reasons, and because I don't want to prolong my time in here, I probably shouldn't tell you,"
The hero laughed, "fair point. For what it's worth, I'm glad you got justice, even if it probably isn't the kind of justice I'd agree with,"
"Really? You think I deserve justice?"
"Of course, I think everyone does," the hero said in confusion, as if that was obvious.
The villain huffed a half laugh, giving a small smile, "I need to remember who I'm talking to,"
Both their gazes fell back to the long discarded present on the floor.
"I can take it, if you'd like, but-"
"No no, it's okay, I... I cant believe the words 'I trust you' are coming out of my mouth but I at least trust you didnt gift me a bomb,"
"I don't know if I'm hurt or flattered,"
The villain laughed again, walking over to hesitantly pick up the gift. They turned back to face the hero, holding the box with both hands as they just stared at it.
"The question still remains..." they drawled, before looking up at the hero that was still sat on the bed, "Why would you get me a birthday present?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why would you get me a gift? Why would you do something like that? For me? I dont think I'm very... deserving of a gift. Especially from you. Unless whatever is in here is some form of mockery- I mean- I guess I shouldn't assume..."
Their eyes dimmed slightly, as if they realized the only thing that could be in the box was something mocking, a heros form of bragging that they had won.
"Okay now I'm definitely hurt,"
The villain looked back up at them.
"Your my friend, I realized your birthday was coming up, so I thought back on our previous conversations, and tried to get something I thought youd like," the hero replied, moving to sit it a more casual position, "There wasnt any more thought put into it then that,"
The villain was now staring at them with wide eyes.
They blinked, seemingly trying to process what they'd just heard.
"I... have questions..."
The hero smirked, tilting their head as a prompt to continue, amused at the normally silver tounged villain being thrown so off their game by something so simple.
"Friend?" The villain responded almost instantly.
"Oh I'm sorry, what would you call this? Marriage?"
"I'd call this me tolerating your visits, whenever you decide to drop by because you've nothing better to do,"
"Maybe at first, but I've seen the way you recently light up whenever I come in,"
"Then you've *recently* begun going blind. I'd suggest seeing an optometrist,"
The hero laughed, "also, for your information, I make time for these visits, I dont just swing by cuz 'I'm bored',"
The villain squinted at that, "You... make time... for me?"
"Yes, that's what friends do,"
"I am not your friend," the villain replied stubbornly.
"Oh yeah? When was the last time you let someone hug you? I have to have passed the friend mark by now,"
The villain blushed, realizing they *had* allowed the hero to hug them, and they couldnt remeber the last time anyone else had even tried, nevermind been *allowed*.
"this is a dysfunctional work relationship at best"
The hero snorted another laugh at that.
The villain glanced down at the box once more.
Finially they knelt down onto the floor, placing the box infront of them. The stared at it for a few seconds, hands shaking slightly as they hovered over it, before taking a deep breath and tearing the wrapping off.
It was a simple brown box with a lid.
The villain chuckled under their breath slightly at that.
"What?" The hero questioned, not seeing anything funny.
"No, sorry I just-, had a thought,"
The hero raised an eyebrow at them.
"I just thought how funny it would be if after all this it turned out to be empty, but that would be cruel, even for-"
Their sentence came to a halt as the lid came off and they saw what was inside.
Now their wasnt anything incredible inside, it wasnt like they had gotten a new iphone, but there was *many* things inside.
They looked up at the hero, mouth open slightly, not even attempting to hide their shock.
The hero just smiled.
Slowly, the villain began taking things out of the box. A book of puzzles, like crosswords and word searches, a small sketch book and a pack of markers to go with them. A small puzzle, showing the picture of a fox, which was the villains favourite animal. There was also a rubix cube that was already messed up, and a set of other small puzzles. At the bottom, there were two more boxes, one much bigger then the other.
The bigger box contained the Harry Potter book series. The second, contained a small device that looked like an airpod, along with earbuds.
It was fascinating for the hero to watch the villain open their gift. One would expect a villain to be clumsy, rushed, or aggressive, ripping into their present, but they were the opposite. They removed every item slowly, delicately, like it was a peice of glass that could break, examining it with the same gentleness before laying it down carefully beside them.
When they had opened the last item, they looked back up at the hero, completely flabbergasted, jaw on the floor and eyes wide.
The hero laughed quietly, "do you like it?"
"I..." the villain sat back onto their heels from where they were kneeling, looking over the items like they were unsure what to do now, "what..."
They blinked, gathering their thoughts, "how did you...? I mean what-"
They picked up the puzzle as they spoke.
"That's your favourite animal right? A fox? Now I wasnt sure what kind of fox but-"
"How?" The villain asked, almost breathlessly, looking back at the hero.
"How did I know that? You mentioned it, once. I was talking about being a cat or dog person, and you said youd always been a fox person, something about them being 'sly and underestimated, yet smart enough to know when to strike'" they recited, making quotations in the air.
The villains jaw hit the floor again.
"That was actually one of the first things you ever told me about yourself,"
"You bothered... to remeber that...?" they muttered under their breath.
"Yep. The rubix cube is because you bragged to me once you were good at puzzles and could do one, and I didn't believe you," the hero smirked, "still don't,"
The villain huffed a small laugh, before glancing over at the books.
"the puzzle book and sketch book are just something to do, I know markers arnt ideal, but obviously I wasnt allowed to give you any pencils or pens,"
The villain nodded in understanding.
"the books are because I was talking about game of thrones one day, and you said youd always preferred Harry Potter,"
The villain smiled, and shook their head at that, chuckling, "I've never actually read them, I just wanted to disagree with you," they joked.
They both laughed.
"What's this?" The villain asked, picking up the small device with the ear buds.
"Its a little mini portable radio. I didnt know what songs you liked, and obviously, I'm not allowed to give you anything with acsess to the internet, but at least now you can choose what station you want,"
The villain sat back again, looking over everything with the same stunned, almost lost expression.
"You... remebered all those little details... and here I thought I was doing a good job at not letting anything about myself slip..."
"Oh you have been, trying to figure out what to get you was near impossible, but I managed to remeber a couple little things youd mentioned,"
They picked up the rubix cube, playing with it aimlessly, "I... don't even know what to say..."
"Well, most people would say thankyou,"
The villain shook their head, "that dosent seem like enough. I... I cant even remeber the last time someone gave me a gift, nevermind one without strings attached, and esspecially nevermind one with actual thought put into it,"
"I get the feeling you need better friends," the hero joked, trying to keep the mood light.
"Yeah well, I guess I'm on the right track, I've already got one," they replied, but couldnt bring themselves to look at the hero while they did.
The hero in question was lit up like a christmas tree, heart swelling happily in their chest.
"I hate to cut this short, but don't have long today, I'm going to have to get going, I just wanted to make sure I got to swing by today," the hero said, looking at their watch.
"Oh! Yeah, of course, you -"
"Do not have 'more important' things to do, I simply have *other* things I need to do," the hero interrupted sternly, giving the villain, who blushed, a pointed look.
"yeah, that."
The villain stood up, standing awkwardly in the middle of all their gifts, watching the hero leave through the finger print locked cell door. They approached the switch to turn on the force field, when the villain stopped them.
"Oh, hey, wait!"
"What's up?" The hero asked.
Suddenly the villain tossed something through the bars with effortless perfect aim. The hero caught it, and this time it was their jaw that hit the floor.
It was a completed rubix cube.
They looked back at the villain in shock, who laughed, giving them a real, large, and although greatly amused, no less genuine smile. The first real, true smile they'd ever seen on the villain. They couldnt help but stare in awe for a moment.
"What..?" The villain asked after a moment.
The hero shook their head to snap them out of it, "sorry! It's just, that's the first time I think I've ever seen you actually smile,"
Instantly the smile vanished as the villain steeled their features, crossing their arms and shrugging, trying to ignore the blush on their face, "yeah well, that's cuz it dosent happen often, so,"
"I'm honored,"
"Shut up,"
The hero laughed, before looking at the cube in their hand again,"this is like, actually really impressive though, that was so fast!"
The villain shrugged again, "the 3 by 3 ones are easy, the 4 by 4 or 5 ones arnt that much more difficult, the 6 and 7 ones take me a while though, 8 is an actual challenge, and I dont think I've ever done above that before,"
The hero was still staring at them wide eyed.
The villain just chuckled and shrugged at them again, "I was an outcast kid, had alot of time on my hands. Anyway, get going,"
"Yeah, right," the hero replied, tossing the cube back before flicking on the force field. They began walking toward the door, before the villain spoke out to them one last time,
"By the way... thank you... really..."
The hero smiled, "your welcome," they replied, before disappearing out the door.
The next time they visited, they would make sure to bring a 9 by 9 rubix cube, and a fox calendar.

Why cant I write like this for my school assignments smh, I have to write like three poems yet I write out long fanfic things within hours, I'm sorry the parts, they progressively get longer sorry if it's bad.
Also yeah guess this is the Carder Sibling AU
Spoiler Warnings, you get the point play or watch the game first unless you want to spoil yourself
Last Page Next Page
Once I decided to play the game, I sat down at my spare desk in my room, the one I put Luke's computer on. P03 kept a bored expression, but it still seemed almost... excited? For some reason.
"...Did Luke play this with you?" I wanted to know... Maybe, it, he? was excited from having someone to finally play with after Luke...
P03 responded snapping me out of my thoughts, "oh yeah, he loved it. Had a, horrible deck... for it... though.." He trails off, seeming distant for a minute before re-gaining composure. "Anyways let's start shall we?" The window that's open suddenly goes dark. And then, p03's face takes up the window before it zooms out to show a hologram-esque table that has a player character on it.
I was taken aback at first, but I must admit it was pretty neat, cool even. He started giving me a mini tutorial so I understand the mechanics. "Are you sure that's the right move?"
"You told me to move this one!"
"That is not the right card."
The small amount of bickering banter continues, it was nice to play this actually. I had fun, despite not knowing why, P03 was inside his computer still... But, I guess it, is really nice having something, someone around to help you get over your grieving. After awhile of playing the game, I finally win a game that wasnt just a tutorial.
"Congrats, you must have had great RNG." His face looks, annoyed. But at the same time, the expression looks seemingly, happy abit too. I'm probably just imagining it.
You chuckle. "Thanks." This, might not be too bad. You're unsure whether to let the others know, but maybe they'll find solence in knowing P03 used to be Luke's little A.I. helper? Nah, it- it's too dumb.
"By the way. Despite the fact you already know my name, nice to meet you P03, my name's-"
I'm cut off by the robot. "Yeah yeah I do already know." He looks bored.
"Gee thanks. Anyways... Thank you." I really mean it, playing a game helped take my mind off things. But, he looked like he wasnt expecting me to be thankful.
"Oh uh, of course- uh, for what?" Now he looks confused, his face turns back into looking bored after a second, as if he forgot to keep it like that.
"For keeping my mind off things. And dont think I didnt notice the notes on the computer, now that I know you exist I figured out you were the one sending them." I huffed, P03 responds.
"I dont know what you're talking about I dont know about any notes." For a robot, and speaking through text, he's terrible at lieing isnt he? "But yeah glad- glad you enjoyed the game. It was... nice having a... pleasant player, for once..." He turns away.
I smiled, "I should, go call my siblings now, see you later P03."
He turns around seeming abit surprised, "You're, not, going to do anything about me??"
"I mean you seen chill, plus you've been leaving notes for me to take care of myself so-"
"I have not!!" He suddenly seems annoyed.
"Sure buddy. Either way, I dont mind. Plus, you're one of the few things I have left of Luke now. I dont want to lose that." And with that, I left to go get my phone, and call my family. I left before i could see his response, but, he looked... sad, when i last saw him.

Narcos México: Dating them would include: (7/7)
Tumblr media
ok, i was too lazy to fully edit so please forgive me if this is actually trash :((
Tags: @fandomnerd16​ , @visintaes​ , @sheeshgivemeabreak​
Warnings: NSFW!
Güerito is the softest out of everyone, a KING, you two are just so damn cute together
The most loving and affectionate relationship, im crying
Your relationship is the most talked about among everyone,  the it couple from sinaloa,,,
he’s so hopelessly in love with you,,, his heart would just melt when you simply tell him you love him-
like, there is never a moment where you two are mad at each other, you’re always seen smiling and giving each other the biggest heart eyes anyone has ever witnessed- i cant,
Wherever Hector needs to make an appearance, like at a party, he’s arriving with you because there’s no Güero Palma without you-
his forehead kisses are the best
would give you them before he has to go talk business with a socio at a party and leave you with chapo or cochi
It makes him comfortable to leave you with them because he knows they’ll protect you with their lives if they have to-
“Ahorita regreso, mi cielo, si ocupas algo, avisale a Chapo, eh? No me tardo”
I cant, the way he softly speaks to you is everything,,,
 he also probably looks over every 5 minutes to make sure you’re doing alright without him,,,
He’s always holding your hand - im crying
He’ll intertwine your hands and bring them to his lips to kiss your hand-
Or he’ll bring your intertwined hands to his chest, over his heart and caress your face with the other hand,,,
“este corazon es solo de ti, mi amor”  i-
ok I keep thinking about the way Güerito would look at you at all times, everyday,,
The lovesick puppy look is everything,-
He could also talk about you for hours because holy shit do you have him tied down-
, nothing makes him smile brighter than seeing you get along with Chapo and Cochi, even though they tend to endlessly tease the both of you-
“Bueno, cuando piensan ustedes hacer chiquito güeritos y güeritas, pues? Pinche, Chapito ya quiere ser un padrino”-
The little look Güero throws at you when you blush and smile up at him after Cochi said that-
Honestly, Cochi and Chapo would probably be so escandalosos the day you announce your pregnancy, i-
The sinaloa family grows :))
I just know, Hector has a framed photo of you two on his desk🥺,,,
He’ll just stare at your face when he’s beginning to stress out and remind himself that he’s doing it for you,, so he can keep you happy-
My heart--, Hector gives me hardcore old school vibes, like even though you’re married, he’s always giving you the biggest bouquet of roses he can find before every. single. date.
The tiny little smile he has as he stands there when he sees your eyes light up-
“Para ti mi amor, te los escogí yo mismo” fuck 
, When he takes you out to eat, he’s holding your hand from across the table, running his thumb over your knuckles-
, this man is giving you his undivided attention when you talk and giving you the most adoring smile, im dying-
ok Güero would totally be the one to take you to a “mini” date after your date
Like, he’ll take you to the neveria or even buy you 6 different antojitos for you to share with him -im sobbing
I cant even imagine how his heart would literally break whenever he sees you upset, automatically thinking what he did wrong to make you sad :(
“Mi cielo, que paso? No llores, dime, que hice” I- :(((
just the way he holds you and lets you cry into him-
ohh,, if someone hurted you, he would personally  shoot up all of sinaloa if he has to in order to make you feel safe again-
He would go through hell and back just to make it up to you and see you smile,,,,
He also definitely tries his best to shield you from the business, but he can’t help but rant to you about everything that goes on
, I feel like he’ll rant to you about the time Chapo suggested his tunnel idea and hector is just over here rambling about how tf he’s going to find another way through tijuana
Its not until you speak up about maybe considering chapo’s idea, like you mention something about “por lo que me dices, no se van dar cuenta los de tijuana, mucho menos porque nadie piensa buscar abajo de tierra, hector”
Güero just pauses and looks at you, because??? You just said it so nonchalantly and made the idea make sense to him? all while making champurrado like the queen you are-
“Intelligente, mi preciosa, verdad?” as he comes up to you and tilts your face to kiss you,,
ooh the two of you making food together has my heart dying,-
domestic-hector can have my whole fucking soul,,
SoftCuddles in the morning and before bed, he would pull you on top of him and give you so many kisses on your face, your happy laughter just makes him so weak, I-
NSFW:
alright right off the bat, this man loves receiving blowjobs from you, like not only because it lowers his stress levels, but also just the way you look,, makes him hard,
when your on your knees for him, your mouth filled with his cock, and the sounds that fill up the room,,i - he has that view ingrained into his memory,,
cada vez que se encabrone, your already unbuckling his pants to help him relax in his chair at his office-
he’ll stare as you go down on him, letting out a deep low groans,-
“Un pinche angel que dios me mando, verdad mi cielo?”
as he holds the side of your face, slowly thrusting into your mouth-ok
this is going to lead into office sex, im sorry im not making the rules here
it just excites him having you lay on his workspace, gripping the desk and biting your lips to keep quiet as he pounds into you,
“no hagas ruido mi amor, yo se que puedes aguantar”
the one thing he hates about office sex tho is having to be quick because he doesn’t want to risk someone finding you naked on his desk with his cock inside of you-  
and yet, you two are so good at hiding any noises that could lead to suspicion he’s banging you in his office,, 
but he’s literally so shit at hiding the evidence, like, his hair and outfit are so out of place, there’s a fresh hickey on his neck and your panties were left on the floor,,
“Güero, no chingues, son las nueve de la mañana, cabron, no te podrías esperar?”
Cochi and Chapo would give him so much shit, pero le vale
ok at home though, i feel like Güero is a mix of desperate and slow, like he’ll desperately smother you in kisses, wanting to get you out of your clothes as soon as possible,,
But once he has you laid out on the bed, he’s slowing down, taking his time, worshiping you 
He needs to make you feel good before he can even think about himself,, you can fight me if you don’t think this man loves going down on you
es apasionado el cabron, he’s looking up at you while he’s in between your thighs, probably has his hands wandering up your body as you cry out for him, letting you move your hips on his face -dammit
the way he’ll kiss your inner thighs when he’s done, i-
ok my soft bby needs to see your face when you have sex, he admires the way you respond to his thrusts-
i know hector would lay his forehead on yours, cooing how good youre being for him as he gently holds your face and do those slow but rough thrusts-
or he’ll plant one of his hands on your stomach, pounding into you,  thinking about how beautiful you would look swole this his kid, im sorry
dont look at me, that is one of his many goals ok, quiere una familia, he goes rock hard just thinking about knocking you up-
 alright, can you imagine surprising him when he comes home after a long day to see you wearing lingerie, his mind just goes blank when he sees you walk up to him
“no estoy muerto, verdad?”
his hands are automatically holding your waist as you laugh up to him, pulling him along to your bedroom,,
“no, nomas queria recordarte cuanto te amo” ,- ohh
ok-i laugh at this scenario,, but, Cochi probably teases güero non stop when he’s mad and yells at his workers
like, he’ll wander up to güero who’s fuming, a death glare in his eyes and cochi  just smugly saying,
“Quieres que llamo tu mujer para que te pueda chupar a la verga?”
Güero just throws him an annoyed look, like are you being fr right now? “Callate, pendejo”
but the next day he arrives with like 15 orders of tacos for everyone with a smile and Chapo would probably be the next to call him out,,
“Que Güero, tuvistes una buena noche? Le dices a tu mujer que gracias de parte de todos aqui” ,,,
guero wouldnt even be mad at that point, probably gives them a little smile because el si tiene mujer que lo cuida-
god, riding güero, sign me tf up
this is where he’ll help you tear your clothes off on top of him and give you deep kisses that leave you breathless, helping you grind on him
he’ll wrap his arms around you and deeply thrust into you with no warning, making you throw your head back
kissing your neck as he feels you try to vigorously bounce on him, while you run your hands through his hair,,
His hands would be everywhere, one minute their grasping your ass the next he has them running all over back,,
fuck, when he grips your hips to hold you still on top of him as he roughly thrusts into you,,i-
GraBbinG his necklace, like tangling it in between your hands to tightly grasp something when he makes you shout his name- wow

Mystery March 2021 day 8: Home
I used today as an excuse to write out a little something on how Lewis took possession of the mansion! I hope you guys enjoy!
Lewis wasn’t sure how long he had been in this mansion. If he could focus enough to estimate, probably a few days, if worse came to worse, probably months.
And yet, he still hadn’t cleaned... Lewis turns a corner and takes in the long, dusty corridor. The many rickety doors stared back at him mockingly. The rugs hissed as they crunch under his shoes. The peeling wall paper threatened him with every step that he took.
“Lewis, what are you doing?” Comes a voice to his left, shocking Lewis out of his exhausted stupor and bringing him to look at the wall- more appropriately, the portrait. The woman with fine purple curls- Faust- stares back at him pointedly. “Well?”
“I... I wanted to get out of my room,” he admits, before his eyes wander to the mildew forming beside the portraits golden frame. “But now I remember why I didn’t want to come out.”
“Oh, don’t be like that. I know it seems difficult now, but it’ll become easier. I promise.”
His frown deepens, and Lewis sighs miserably while leaning against the wall across from her. “I know.. I just don’t think I’m ready.”
“Why’s that?”
“I haven’t gotten a hand on my powers. Not yet, ” Lewis admits, chewing on his lip. Faust rolls her eyes, but props her elbows on her frame. Even though she couldn’t poke her head out far enough, Lewis understood the sentiment.
“Lewis, look at me.” He drags his gaze to meet hers. Faust’s eyebrows soften, and she heaves a gentle sigh and leans out a bit more, letting her curls fall out and touch the dirtied ground. “Being dead is tough, trust me, I know. Being in your shoes is also hard, and I can’t imagine how much it’s hurting you to deal with what happened.” The almost condescending tone- something Lewis knew he was imagining - made him flinch, averting his gaze to the painted tree in Faust’s background. He almost regrets sharing all of his backstory with her, and if he knew she would have this tone most days, he would have kept his mouth shut.
“The house is ready to accept you, and so are all the occupants. We will stand behind you every step of the way.”
Lewis grimaces, but nods. There wasn’t a point in fighting her right now. He had a good feeling all of the other portrait ghosts would be on her side too. It only makes sense. Lewis did accept the role as the new owner... he just had to take control, let his power manifest.
Now if only it wasn’t so hard.
Clicking her tongue, Faust straightens up. “Worry not, Lewis. You don’t have to do it this instant, the moon is still out and clearly you aren’t in the right state of mind. Now...”
A distant familiar clacking of metal grew nearer. As two suits of armor step into the entrance of the hall, they cast Lewis a worried look. One that Lewis doesn’t return, instead opting to glare at the stained rug.
Faust continues, “I think it’s time for you to go back to sleep. We will figure your abilities out tomorrow.”
Lewis follows the guards up the steps, and then up another. The wall paper, bricks, and windows full of moonlight blurs together until it accumulates into one door. His door. Leading to the single highest room in the entire mansion.
The guards take their stand on either side of it, nodding to Lewis carefully and not waiting for him to nod back before stilling.
“Thank you, sir Clive, sir Ranveer.” Lewis murmurs, pushing open the door and stepping in.
The room is simple, despite the elegant state one may expect. An old, wooden bed frame, scratchy wool blankets and a silk top sheet. Light pink curtains that flutter in the open window. Lamps on either side of the bed that didn’t actually turn on.
His room, and yet far from it.
Pulling the blankets aside, Lewis crawls into the bed, nestling his face against the pillow and pretending like he couldn’t smell the light stench coming from it.
Tomorrow he will take hold of his power, and he will make this mansion his home.
His home, for him and all the spirits already residing within it.
Lewis’s eyes moisten as he falls into his ‘slumber’. Praying for no nightmares.
“Im going to take the lower path, why don’t you two take the other... don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine! I have Mystery.”
“Dont cling to Lewis too much Ar...”
The moss and slimy green walls reflected like a million eyes. All watching. All staring.
Even as Lewis peered up at his own hand, clutching his torch, knowing what was to happen... he wished more than anything that he could simply turn around.
His stomach drops, his blood runs cold. The sudden halt broke his fall, his spine bent oddly and digging behind his bellybutton.
Cold. Cold. Yet so hot.
Empty. Yet rushing. A river, but still. There was so much light at first, and then it was so dark. Growls, howls, screams of every kind...
Loneliness.
All he wanted... was for them to come back. Save him.
Of all the memories Lewis had to revisit, why did it always have to be this one?
There was still gaps, such as the moment when he hit the spike, and when he forced himself up. How he even did it, Lewis wasn’t sure, but he couldn’t focus on that when the gaping wounds in his chest filled with with and stung from the cold.
His legs still ached from the stillness and the fatigue, and from the exhaustion of being awake despite dying. He wobbled far, tracing his dead fingers along slimy walls and against currents of chittering laughs. Then the constant thought. A mantra. Over and over. Come back for me. Come back, please.
Wake him up from this bad dream.
If only he accepted that it wasn’t going to happen...
He didn’t know where he was going, nor how long he was going to walk, but Lewis didn’t stop until he was face to face with a tall metal gate that shined unlike the eyes in the walls.
The rusted lock doesn’t break, but Lewis pushes through like jelly.
The staircase was a nightmare. Transitioning from cave stone to proper granite the higher he ascended. All while the prickling sensation of being watched crept up his back and urged his weak and heavy body to move faster.
Lewis ‘wakes up’ up with a shallow gasp. Eyes wide, he pants. Slowly turning his head, a layer of sticky sweat clings to Lewis’s face. He wipes it away and peels back the blanket, crawling out of the bed as the lingers of his ‘dream’ fights to hold the forefront of his mind.
His friends... they still haven’t come back for him. The guards would have alerted him if they returned to the cave, and Lewis would have been rushing out the doors if he heard the familiar engine.
They weren’t here. Lewis isn’t sure why he kept expecting them to suddenly show up.
Pushing himself to move, Lewis hops into a float and drifts to the door. Figuring that he may as well show that he has a grasp on some of his new abilities, now he just needed to realize what his main skillset was.
The guards lead him down the flight of stairs, past the library, and the office, and to the largest room in the mansion.
The living room was filled with an air of elegance, even if covered in dust and mildew. Several portraits line the walls beside the mighty fireplace, and leading to it was two long couches and an even longer coffee table. Book cases sat in between the tall windows, and smaller spaces left unused seemed to act as their own mini lounge, with a smaller bookcase, chair, table, and lamp.
Lewis compared it to a community center before, but now it felt like a stage.
More guards file in behind Lewis, with Sir Clive and Ranveer taking their positions behind him. He could feel a heavy, although gentle pat on his back from Ranveer.
After that, the dozen or so smaller, formless and colorless ghosts fly in and take their seats on the cushions.
The fireplace before him seemed to smile at him. With its decorations acting as its wise and considering eyes.
A line of sweat slides down Lewis’s cheek. Now wasn’t the time for stage fright, but his legs lock up in their floating position. He inhaled slowly.
“Psst.”
Glancing over, Lewis catches the soft, affectionate smile on Faust’s face. She tilts her head. “You got this.”
Lewis balls his fists, ”Do I? I really didn’t expect everyone to gather for this...” he admits.
“We know.” The portrait of the priest, Father Zachariah, responds. He gives Lewis a stern look, reminding Lewis to stand straight. “We didn’t want this to be a private affair. If you are really taking over this mansion like you said you would, then we have to right to partake in your awakening.”
“Aw jeez, give the man a break, will ya?” Another portrait, Terri to wrestler reaches out and fists some of Zachariahs robe, glaring at him. “Can’t you see he’s nervous?” He then says, throwing out his hand in a grand gesture toward Lewis, who shrinks back slightly.
Tamaki, the attorney, rolls his eyes dramatically and pinches his brow. “Lewis, I can assure you this isn’t a judgment, quite the contrary. We knew that it would have been hard for you to do this on your own, so we are providing an ample amount of support throughout the activities. Do you understand?”
He nods, unsure how else to respond, although the exhaustion made Lewis want to join the spirits on the couch and take a long nap.
The two portraits of shadows, Haseeb and Ameena, also nod in tandem. “Yes, Lewis. Infact, since you enjoyed music, we wanted to bring out the excitement.... I hope you’re okay with that.”
“Speaking of which,” Faust pipes up, leaning out of her frame and narrowing her eyes at the spirits sat on the couch. “Weren’t you all supposed to grab your instruments? Where are they!”
The colorless ghosts jump and flash past Lewis in one synchronized movement, before rushing back just as quickly. Returning with old violins, cellos, flutes, clarinets, and trumpets. Two more lag behind, with a cymbals, and one final one dragging something heavy. He turns, eyes widening as a singular spirit drags a *piano* from a closet he didn’t remember being there.
”Hold on, I’ll help you.” he says before realizing he was moving, that is until he floats past to the other side of the piano and bracing itself underside. Only for the spirit to send him an anxious look.
Oh.. it’s probably too heavy for them to also lift. Lewis spots the mini orchestra and waves them over. ”We need more hands, come over here and help up.”
Abandoning their instruments, several more spirits rush and brace the other side, allowing the piano to be lifted and carried earlier.
“Yeah you deadbeats! Why do you need his command to get a move on?” Terri calls, anything but cruel however. Deadbeats... that’s an interesting term. Lewis faintly ponders as he sets the piano down, before going to retreat the stool.
At the same time, the living rooms doors open, and the puny skeletal gardener drags in the painter spirit.
“Rye! Thank you for fetching Elora.” Tamaki says.
“Oh eff off,” Rye responds, plopping down on one of the chairs and sinking down. “I was busy trying to save up my energy for tonight’s show. You want there to be flowers, right?”
Flowers?
“Yep, thats why the windows are open. Let’s wait until Lewis is prepared however.”
”N-no need to wait, I’m ready now,” Lewis squeaks out, clearing his throat as he turns and takes in the grumpy strawberry looking gardener.
Rye bobs their skull and spins away from him, “Fantastic.”
She raises her arms, and in a swift motion, glows the same ripe red color as her dress. All at once, the windows are swarmed with vines. Green foliage spilling in, connecting across the ceiling, draping and tangling amongst the curtains, and wrapping around the stone busts on the bookcases. It happened so fast that Lewis couldn’t react. Instead he gaps up at the magnificent display, watching as floral arrangements burst, forming meticulously designed patterns along the entire room.
When he finally tears his gaze away from the display, Lewis is met with calm, expectant smiles.
“Ready whenever you are, bucko.” Rye pats his arm and reclaims her seat, leaving him in the center of his imaginary stage.
Now, his anchor beats twice as fast, almost overwhelmed by all of the effort, all the eyes sim directly at him.
Pressing his finger tips together, Lewis wets his lips. Several heads tilt as they wait.
Clearing his throat, Lewis lowers his head,”... I’m sorry. What am I supposed to do first?”
Faust gasps lightly, the first to realize their crucial mistake. Ignoring Terri’s chiding, she clears her throat.
“Of course, Lewis, the first thing we need you to do, is concentrate on your internal thoughts. As you do, try to figure out which emotion or feeling is more prominent.”
A single note plays from the deadbeat sat at the piano, followed by the violin, and a growing hum from the others who hadn’t begun to playing. Lewis’s heart skips a beat, and he bites his lip as he closes his eyes. The piano continues, the notes floating through his mind and striking chords that were far from forgotten.
A new set of voices fill in the emptiness between notes, running alone side the piano and dancing along with the violin. A flute begins, and Lewis sharply inhales.
He loves music, he always has, it always made him want to dance. Grab the first person in arms length and pull them close, whether it be the waltz or a swing, it filled him with warm laughs that always spread across his face in a smile. A familiar tingle fills his arms, and Lewis is sure that he can feel Vivi in front of him, swaying as they listened to the music. The warmth grows as she fills his minds eye. Her soft scarf tangled in between them, how her skirt swirled and swished as she spun and dance, leaving him warm in the face and his chest full of bubbling warmth.
Warmth. He felt warm.
That certain warmth fills his hands, tingling at his finger tips and running along his scalp.
The room smelt faintly of decay and staleness, but a memory envelopes him, and Lewis is in his families kitchen. Dancing in place and singing at the top of his lungs with his sisters twirling around him. Cinnamon, garlic, sugars and herb fills his nostrils. The lavender and sweet floral in the air elevating the smells of their garden which he pranced through many times during the warm summer nights. The bonfires, the flare of heat from the oven, the thick humidity in a late evening as Lewis arm wrestles with his much scrawnier friend.
The warm spreads up his elbow and all along his back. Before Lewis knew it, the singing, the music grew loud, amplifying as more instruments add to the mix, and as his own voice joins them. A crash of the cymbals becomes the splash of the beach, and the laughter chittering along with it.
His heart races, and the warmth becomes hot and exhilarating as he recalls the endless nights of fondness. Of redness in his cheeks from drinking alongside his friends, on his tongue as he taste tests his fathers latest recipe, and the swell of pride upon seeing Cayennes first ballet recital.
Pride, love, happiness.
Spastic notes become fireworks. Blasting, rocketing, exploding across the night sky. It becomes the crash and crackle of buildings as he and his friends rush from burning buildings, away from spirits whose voice booms too loud. The warmth spreads to his legs, in the ache of running, carrying his friends over his shoulders in a desperate need to escape. As his heart burns in the terror of thinking they were hurt. In wanting to slam his fist into the fiends face for daring to threaten his loved ones.
The guards dance with him, metal clacking and sparking. Lights spot the area as Lewis shoots out his arms and pulls one in against his chest to spin in tandem, before releasing them in a dramatic flourish.
Anger, fear, the need to protect.
His friends, his family.
The loves of his life-
Lewis opens his eyes, and the passion fueling his movements die in an instant.
His hand glows, his arm flaring. A line of fire burns away from him, pink and flaming and just as excited as he was. Gasping, Lewis tears himself away, slipping and hitting the ground. The music screeches to a halt all at once. Everyone freezing.
“Lewis, are you okay?” Faust calls out, gripping her frame as if she were going to rip herself out of it. Concern warping her face, along with the other portraits, the ghosts, everyone.
“You were doing good!” Terri says, “don’t tell me you got cold feet!”
Tamaki nods in agreement, “it’s truly delightful to see you smile for once. I was worried we would never see it.”
Shoulders tense, Lewis’s eyebrows furrow.
That... was him?
Baffled, Lewis holds his hand in front of him, and sure enough his palm was glowing. He tenses the muscles, and he jumps as a small flame puffs out at him.
”I- wait, seriously? I did it?”
“Yes, you did. Marvelous work, Lewis.” Zachariah hums approvingly. The warmth- embarrassment and concern- floods his chest, before Lewis is smothered by smiling deadbeats swarming him in a hug. Curling around him and nuzzling their formless heads against his.
His legs twitch as Lewis rises, floating naturally instead of jumping this time, and becoming upright.
Everyone is smiling at him, faces warm and bright with delight. Warm with the same sentiment, that it was time to make this his home...
He knew it, they knew it, that had to be the entire point of everyone gathering. Not to help him, but to watch him accept them as his new family... leaving his old.
Leaving his family, and his friends...
Faust is the first to speak, eyes crinkling. “Are you ready?”
What about Vivi? Arthur? How is he going to be there for his sisters? How can he keep his friends safe if he can’t be there for them. He can’t abandon them. Because they won’t abandon him. They wouldn’t. They’re coming back for him.
”No. I’m not.”
The disappoint was clear by the stilted air. But no one argued with him. The deadbeats had sunk, their instruments hitting the ground in shock, before being lifted up and taken back to their proper places. The vines retreat and retract, and quietly, the spirits all left the living space. Even the first place seemed to grow cold, if that was even possible.
Lewis didn’t say anything to the portraits when he left the room and raced upstairs to his tower of solitude. The same thought racing through his head again and again.
They’re coming. They will.
Soon. Soon...
Soon...?
Feeling trapped and terribly homesick, Lewis crawls under his blankets. His eyes sting from moisture that shouldn’t accumulate in the sockets, but he wipes them away anyway. Pulling the blanket over his head, Lewis curls into a ball.
Why did it hurt so much reject them? Why did it hurt so much to hold off for so long?
What was he expecting? For Arthur and Vivi to pull up in their bright Orange van and pull him out of the bed, pull him into an embrace, and into the van. Whisk him away so he can embrace his mami and papi, kiss his sisters and tell them how much he missed them.
Why was he even holding out hope? They arent coming back! Why would they...
Arthur killed him... Lewis’s arms shake and he grips the blankets. Arthur shoved him off that fucking cliff with a smile on his face. He should be grateful for anyone to accept him into their family.
He wanted to slam his fist into his gut, to direct the pain from his aching chest. Lewis wanted his eyes to stop stinging.
But he couldn’t. Home was where they were, and he has been thrown away.
Lewis fell into a half sleep, living through the same memory of his death again and again. Watching as his nightmare loops with his life being torn from his grasp with a single push.
That one moment of inaction, the one second of trust. And now?
Lewis is dead.
The memory looped for a fifth time, with Lewis desperately searching for an escape from the grip of reality, when the universe finally gives him one.
An engine. It’s not loud, and it rattles lightly. Lewis pops awake, disoriented from the jarring switch from the cave to his bed, but he disregards it.
Tearing the blankets, an adrenaline thrashes through him. Warmth, heat, rocketing through him. It burns his soles as the impossible dangles right in front of him.
It can’t be, is it really them?
Are they here for him?
Lewis’s anchor skips a beat as he almost falls down the first set of steps. Before he hits the steps face first, his body vanishes in a burst of flame and reappears with a running start at the bottom. The halls wake up with the pound of his feet and his heart, and Lewis forgets that others lived on this decrepit mansion as he races to the main stairway, leading to the front door.
He expects specks of blue, yellow, and white to meet him there. For smiles to spread across their face as they run to swallow him in a hug.
Lewis freezes. Heart going still. Heat draining as he takes it in...
There’s four people, who he hardly recognizes, except for the role they were trying to play as they whisper amongst themselves.
”This place wasn’t here a few days ago.” “do you think it’s a trap?” “Do you think anyone’s here?”
Paranormal investigators...
They start to wander, poking at the busts and pushing open doors, unaware of Lewis staring at them.
It’s not them, his friends aren’t coming.
Now strangers are in ... in this mansion, disturbing the people who have been nothing but kind to Lewis.
The need to protect returns, strong and lashing as his fists ball up, tears stinging his eyes.
Teeth grinding, heat pools into his hands, and fire spits out like sparks of electricity. Finally grabbing the investigators attention as he stomps on the first step. The fire crackles, leaving a singed footprint in its place, but Lewis doesn’t care. Focusing on the bug eyed look of the four intruders who back away in mounting terror as the flames rise.
Breath coming out in hisses, Lewis growls. ”Get out.”
It was enough to send the four scrambling for the door, the engine roaring again as they undoubtedly piled in. Just in time for the suits of armor to clamber behind him, looking around in shock until they see him.
The furious gaze didn’t die upon seeing them. No. Except Lewis turns away from them and floats to the bottom step, theres a strain on his body that extinguishes the fire in his hands, but that didn’t matter.
Lewis rounds the corner, leaving a trail of smoking fire pits in his wake.
Until he’s stood in front of the fireplace, the hearth that he was instructed to simply light it to accept his place as the homes new owner and protector.
His first family protected him, but his loved ones ended his life. Now it’s his turn to ensure the safety of the only family he may have left.
Lewis’s arm wavers as he lifts it up, a ball of fire burning his palm and spitting in every which direction as he glares at the fireplace, whose glass doors open wide.
The flame shoots out, and upon making contact with the bricks and wood, the entire mansion lights up in a magical blast. Transforming peeling wallpaper to freshly striped, strewing chandeliers in every room it could fit, burning away the rot and leaving the floors warm and spotless.
Everything around him changed in an instant, but Lewis doesn’t see it.
His anchor hits the ground with a soft clink, hot to the touch and wet with tears.

TFATWS Spoilers under the cut
Literally the following is my thoughts and opinions, and there are probably some unpopular opinions lol. It's kinda really long lol.
Starting with some positives.
I loved how the two leads had storylines that mirrored each other. Sam needed to become Captain America and gain a title and Bucky needed to move on from The Winter Solider and loose a title.
Sam. Just Sam I loved him before but now I love him more.
Sam becoming Cap.
I loved Isaiah and his story.
I loved Sam's family, how they welcomed Bucky and the struggles Sarah had.
I really liked how they spent time with both Sam and Bucky and didn't forget the show was supposed to be about both of them. Often times shows tend to lean into the more popular or fan favorite lead and this show didn't do that. When Sam took center it felt natural and when Bucky took center it felt natural.
The Wakandans were great. I love Ayo and her friendship with Bucky.
Zemo was fine and fun enough.
John Walker was incredibly done. Wyatt Russell did an amazing job and the scene with the blood on the shield will forever be in my memory. Hands down one of the most impactful MCU moments.
I like the genderbend on Karl/Karli and the direction they took her character. People that go from sympathetic ideas to unforgivable means, make good villains. I think her more boring elements come from the lack of development she got.
Now on to the negatives.
This show could have been like two hours shorter and still told the same story with the same impact. Also earlier episodes, (maybe later episodes too I might have just gotten used to it and stopped noticing lol), had some weird ADR moments. IDK what happened behind the scenes but it was noticeable.
I would have loved it if one of the episodes was a flashback episode. The Sharon twist was obvious from the first episode she appeared in but like they thought it was good enough to save confirmation for the mid/end of the finale? Both her and Karli would have been benefited from a flashback episode.
Karli should have fought Bucky while Sam was focused on Walker. Sam could have had a moment where he tells him he will never be forgiven and Walker would responded with something similar to "I do what is right. I don't need forgiveness." Then when he becomes USAgent it lands more like the next progression in an arc rather than the redemption arc this could be interpreted as. I personally think this is a stepping stone and not a redemption but the MCU (and Disney) doesnt have a great track record when it comes to handling anything with nuance and the fans have an even worse track record when handling things that arent black and white. I guess my point is they could have handled the John Walker set up better.
Speaking of set up, this entire show was set up. This is my main and only real problem with this show. Nothing felt like it was resolved at the end. Karli even says she was part of a bigger movement. Killing her didn't change the fact a lot of people felt the un blip ruined their lives. People always shit on Tony for wanting to bring people back five years later instead of going back in time but like it had been five years, while some like Steve and Natasha hadn't moved on, others had. Some had better lives. Assuming everyone wanted to back to the way things used to be would also be a mistake. This has consequences too, as we see in these shows. But ruining the lives of the people who had bettered themselves would have been shitty too. And yea some people who had been bettered were worsened once again when the un blip happened but my point is going back and erasing the five years would have been shitty too. There is not really a right answer here as the right answer would have been to either stop the snap before it happened or to come to terms with the fact that the snap can never be undone. Leaving everyone as dead might have hurt, but it was the best thing for a community that had five years of mourning and moving on and counseling ETC. Ooof that was a tangent lol and I could probably write an essay so going back to my original point about set up. The flag smashers, or at least people who think the way they did still exist, Sharon Carter is the powerbroker but Sam and Bucky dont know and now shes back as agent 13, John Walker went from war hero to committing war crimes and his journey as USAgent is just starting, Sam has taken the Cap mantle and is ready to begin acting as Cap, and Bucky is both coming to terms with and moving on from his past. Nothing is actually resolved in this mini series. I know it's supposed to make you excited for the next movie/show/season whatever but have six episodes of little to no payoff IMO made for a flat show.
Building off the set up problem. This show had too much going on. Sam and Bucky each had their own personal journey (The A and B plot depending on the episode), Sam and Bucky being friends and their shared journey (C), John Walker and the Flag Smashers (the D and E plot depending on the episode), Zemo and the Wakandans (F), The PowerBroker/Sharon (G), The boat and Sarah which could be considered part of Sam's plot but since if you cut it out the only thing that actually effected Sam's journey would be the bank in the first episode and yet it still went on till basically the end I'm calling it it's own plot (H), Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, which might be part of John Walker's story but since it's all set up for her to take a bigger role in the future and his set up could be completed without her I'm counts her separately (I), then you have the big meeting at the end, the senators and policy makers making choices the vote that they keep mentioning and once again more set up... (J). 10 ideas by my count, all needed their own set up, follow through, and payoff. And yes some stuff like Valentina the pay off will come later but still... It's all too many plots! And thats not mentioning side characters that were new to the show that they wanted to spend time with but couldn't.
Even though I think the shows aren't comparable/two different genres WandaVision had two more episodes (and yes some were shorter but I already mentioned I think FATWS could have benefited from that), completed all the main plots and had Wanda's journey (A), Vision's journey (B), Agatha, Pietro/Ralph, and the citizens of the hex (C), Outside the hex Monica (D), Outside the hex everyone else and sure you can separate Darcy, Jimmy and Heyward but none of them were setting up future stories or had their own distinctive plot outside the hex thing like Monica so she is the only one I am separating (E), the kids who could be counted as an extension of the Wanda and Vision plots since they didnt really have their own arc or story (F). 6 total. And some of those could be combined. Like I think we should separate Wanda Vision and the kids but technically they are just an extension of Wanda. And same with Monica, her story was mostly intertwined with Darcy, Jimmy and the outside the hex stuff. I separated her since I think she had enough moments to herself and she set up secret invasion or whatever, but like Valentina being a part of John's story it is arguable. Of these plots only the missing witness Jimmy thing, Wanda's post credits moment a moment seperate from everything else, Monica's mid credits i think? moment another one separate from everything else, and white vision were unresolved. They gave Agatha an opening ending but it was still an ending. And yes Darcy Heyward etc will probably come back but the plot they had here was finished. So arguably they had 2/6 unfinished plots. And if you don't count Jimmy's witness as a plot and just count it as an unanswered question then 1/6. And technically white vision is just half a vision and the other vision got a complete plot so really it's 0.5/6 At best they completed 92(ish)% of the plots and left 8 (ish) % for future stuff.
In contrast FATWS only finished Sam's journey into becoming Cap, Zemo and the Wakandans, and arguably Sam and Bucky's friendship. You might be able to argue that Bucky had a full circle moment with the guy whose son he killed, but that is one guy and Bucky has been carrying around a list of people like that guy. It's not the end of a story it is the start of a journey. And maybe it is possible to say the boat thing had an ending kinda. 2/10 completed. maybe 3/10 if you wanna push it 5/10. IMO at best they completed 50% of plot set up.
Clearly FATWS is meant to be this way and thats why it bothered me. They want you to watch Cap 4 or whatever they decide to call the theatrical movie that will come after this. I guess I was just expecting it to stand on it's own, and other than Sam's journey into becoming Captain America, which was amazing and deserved in every way, nothing this show did felt like it could have stood on its own. I know it's arguable that was the main story and only story that deserved to end. But I've already pointed out all the other running plots this show had, and I think at least two or three of them should have had follow through in the show.
Someone who plans to never seen an MCU movie after these shows could have watched WandaVision and enjoyed it. That is not the case for FATWS. If you don't plan on watching any MCU stuff in the future you won't know how over half the plots of this show will end. THis isn't even how the movies work. They each tell their own story while also setting up other things, so it is clear they know how to do this.
I can see why Disney decided to submit it as a series and not a mini series. Not only do they not want to compete with themselves (nominating WV as a miniseries) but also this isn't a miniseries.
I guess to conclude I'll say I did really enjoy watching this show. It was fun and there were some great moments. It featured amazing character and amazing actors, but I wish it had bothered to finish more of what it started.
Thank you so much for reading till the end of a post that has surely become unintelligible gloop by now. If you disagree I'd love to hear why!

21 kisses masterlist l Full masterlist
Tumblr media
Many months had passed since you last spoke to Chenle. Heck, if it hadn’t been for the fact that you were seated next to him in muggle studies (because the seats were fixed and you had decided on the first day of classes that you wanted to sit together), you wouldn’t even have been near him. 
You’re a Gryffindor, Chenle is a Slytherin. Your mother is an auror and your father works for the Minister for Magic, while both Chenle’s parents were known death eaters. Or, well, they weren’t known when you started dating him, and if they had been back then you wouldn’t have gotten yourself involved with him.
Your parents had met Chenle several times, and they were always supportive of your relationship. But you wished you could say that they had been equally as supportive after it was discovered that his parents were death eaters. Your mother had sent you a letter the day they found out, and when you didn’t respond, your father traveled all the way to Hogwarts to talk to you in person and ban you from ever speaking to Chenle again, by threatening to take you out of hogwarts if you didn’t follow his orders. They had even made sure your friends and most of your teachers knew you weren’t supposed to meet him, so they would drag you away from him if you even as much as tried to talk to him.
But that didn’t mean that you weren’t looking at him. Or talking about him. Or thinking about him. That didn’t mean that you didn’t know exactly where he was at 99% of the time or that you didn’t know what was happening in his life. And it most certainly didn’t mean that you didn’t love him. Because you did. You couldn’t just shut off your feelings, no matter what your parents wanted.
Many parents had sent in threatening letters to the headmaster, telling him to expel Chenle because his behavior could inspire other students to learn about dark magic. But the headmaster always responded by saying that there would be no punishment for anyone based on what their parents had done, because children don’t necessarily take after their parents. And you were so thankful for that - because he was completely right. Chenle was not at all like that. He had been distancing himself from his parents as much as he could since the moment he found out about them over seven years ago; he’d even left them to live with his grandmother instead. You just wished your parents understood that. 
You often found yourself looking down the hallway in the dungeon when you had finished potions class, hoping to see Chenle strutting to or from his common room with his friends. Or thinking of him when his favorite dish was sitting right in front of you at dinner, making you throw a glance over at his usual spot by the slytherin table to make sure he was digging into it as usual. 
Except, one day, he wasn’t at dinner. You didn’t stop looking when you couln’t see him in his usual seat; you searched the entire slytherin table from your place across the room with your eyes, in case he’d decided to get a new seat; and then you searched the rest of the great hall in case he was talking to a teacher or someone from another house. But there was no Chenle. You thought it was very strange, as he never missed a meal - so you excused yourself from your seat and instead walked over to the slytherin table. By the end of it sat the people who you recognized as Chenle’s best friends, Renjun and Jisung, two full blood slytherins whose parents were speculated to be working with Chenle’s. They didn’t look too happy to see you.
“What are you doing here?” Jisung sneered at you once you came close enough to hear.
“I’m just wondering if you know where Chenle is,” you said, voice much calmer than the one that spoke before you.
“Why do you care,” Renjun spat right after swallowing down a piece of chicken. “You’ve made it pretty clear you don’t want anything to do with him anymore.”
“Oh, and you are mad about that?” Even though you had tried to remain calm, you could feel the anger boiling inside of you.
“Yes, Chenle is-“
He had barely just started talking when you cut him off. “You think you’re mad? There are people who are suffering way more from this than you, you idiot. Try to get that thought through your small brain. Maybe the person who’s been ignored, or maybe the person who’s going to be kicked out of hogwarts if she is seen speaking to Chenle.” You hadn’t been able to hold back - but it felt good. When you were done with your mini-rant, you straightened your posture again and looked at the boys with calmer eyes. They seemed surprised, and possibly a bit scared, and Jisung had dropped his fork from his mouth to his plate with a loud thud when you started. “So, I would really appreciate it if you could tell me where Chenle is at.”
Even though they were frightened of what Chenle had threatened them with doing if they spoke about his whereabouts, they told you about how Chenle had said that he wasn’t feeling like having lunch and was probably sitting in the library to study for his exam the next day. Forgetting all about your friends back at your table (and the risk of them seeing you by the slytherin table and connecting the dots), you hurried out of the great hall and made your way down the hallway towards the library.
Your mind was blank, you didn’t know at all what to say to Chenle if you even found him. Yet there was something telling you to go; something inside of you forcing you find him. He had his favorite spot in the library, by one of the windows deep inside, so when you finally made it into the library, you knew exactly where to look. And sure enough, staring into his history of magic book, he sat by the same table as he always did. He hadn’t heard you as your last few steps had been soft, so you faked a quiet cough to get his attention. 
“What are you doing here?”
You sighed at the tone in his voice - you had been a bit surprised before you reminded yourself that you shouldn’t have expected anything. Instead of answering his question, you asked him one. “Why weren’t you at dinner?”
He put his book down and stood up, frowning at you. “Did you seriously come here just to ask me why I didn’t have dinner?”
You shrugged and looked down at your feet, suddenly feeling shy. “Yeah,” you mumbled.
“Okay, so,” he started, pacing slowly towards you. “you don’t speak to me for weeks, maybe even months, and then you come all the way to the library to ask why I didn’t have dinner?” You looked up from the ground to see him staring right into your eyes. “Not really that believeable.”
You didn’t know what to say. The day you had been banned from speaking to him, you had walked straight up to him to tell him that you wanted to break up with him. That’s it. No explanation, not giving him any chance to talk to you. And you hated it, but you weren’t sure how to make it better.
“Shit, Chenle, I’m sorry. I really am,” you sighed, holding back the tears that were threatening to fall from your eyes at any moment now from seeing how angry he was. He had never before looked at you with such flames in his eyes as he was right now. “I... I don’t know what to do to make you understand-“
He cut you off, his tone piercingly sharp. “Just tell me. Tell me the truth.” You blinked a couple of times, hoping that it would help push the water in your eyes back. “Is it because of my parents that you act like I suddenly don’t exist?”
“Yes but-“
And again, he didn’t let you speak. “I though you knew me. I thought you saw me for who I am, not for who my parents are.”
You couldn’t hold back. You stepped towards him, cupping his face in your hands and scanned his eyes for any sign of doubt (except for his continuedly frowned eyebrows). It was like a magnetic force pulled you to him, that pulled your mouth to his. You could instantly feel how much you’d missed this feeling, even though it was barely just a brush. 
Chenle pulled away almost the exact moment you’d launched forward, and though his expression was hard to read, it told you that he wasn’t angry at you. He let out a shaky breath, as he dropped his head to let his forehead rest on your shoulder. “We can’t do this...” he mumbled, his arms snaking around your lower back to hold you close. 
You held him around his shoulders, leaning your head on top of yours. “I’m so sorry, Chenle. I’m going to find a way to fix this,” you mumbled. “My parents... they made sure I didn’t talk to you. I’ll do something to make this right.” 
“But before that, can you just hold me?” 
You might have ignored him for such a long time, but that didn’t mean that you had stopped loving him. Nor that you weren’t ready to fight for your relationship.

dabihawks tattoo/actor!au pt3
part 1 / part 2
here’s the thing: even tho they’ve gone on one (1) date, hawks has a busy as shit schedule, and dabi’s isn’t much better so they text - A LOT
they have different texting styles.
dabi: uses proper grammar and punctuation (”What are you up to tonight, birdie?”), sends everything in one block of text even if it’s lengthy, sends ‘tasteful’ nudes to fuck with hawks (& bc it’s fun to imagine hawks flustered/annoyed). he’s also more active at night, responding promptly with little delay versus the day time where hawks has to wait hours for a reply sometimes.
hawks: does not use proper grammar or punctuation (”do these pants make my ass look flat b honest”), sends five hundred texts with four words each instead of just 1-2 texts to the point that dabi knows not to check his phone right away when it goes off bc he knows there’s still twenty more that need to come thru; and, funnily enough, hawks actually doesn’t send nudes to dabi at all bc he’s too paranoid that his phone will get hacked and hawks just can’t risk that type of scandal
miruko catches on quickly that hawks has a big fat crush on someone and hawks falls apart like a stack of cards and confesses that he’s started dating dabi BUT he makes her swear that she won’t tell anyone
and rumi takes bro code very seriously, so she promises she won’t tell anyone in exchange that hawks tells her everything she regrets this soon enough when hawks won’t stfu about dabi
hawks shows rumi some secret pics he’s taken of dabi caught unawares (no nudes tho) and rumi admits that he’s pretty attractive in that bad boy vibez kinda way. not her type, but she digs his style. and he makes hawks happy, so that’s always a plus in her book. dabi does look kinda familiar, but rumi chalks it up to bad boys looking kinda the same
life goes on, but eventually, hawks slips up and posts a selfie on his insta story, not realizing dabi’s behind him, back to the camera and shirtless. ofc, hawks’ followers see it and go ape shit, demanding answers on this mystery man with the tattoos. hawks turns off his dm’s for a while as he locks himself into his house and has a mini freak out bc fuck they hadn’t discussed what would happen if their relationship got out - hawks hasn’t even told him that he’s a freakin’ celebrity!! he knows this is the beginning of the end.
but, hawks is nothing if not barely an adult. so he invites dabi over and spills the beans - tells him he’s been lying this whole time and that he’s actually an actor who may be a teeny tiny bit famous, and that he’d posted a selfie on his insta w/o realizing dabi had been in the bkg and now everyone is freaking the fuck out which in turn, is making hawks freak the fuck out so yes he will completely 100% understand if dabi wants to break up with him now and to please make it quick and painless
and dabi, nonplussed, arcs a brow and is just like “okay? i already knew that, bird brain” hawks: what?! how? dabi: i dont live under a rock. i watch tv and read the news. also, your face is plastered on the billboard right outside your complex - i see it every time i come here
and yeah, hawks is feeling pretty dumb, but also relieved but also annoyed!! he has so many feelings that he ends just kissing the shit out of dabi bc he doesn’t know how to compute his emotions rn. 
after, hawks asks “what now?” and dabi shrugs bc, well, cat’s outta the bag at this point, right? personally, dabi has no qualms about being open with his relationship with hawks, but he’s also not super eager to be back in the public eye so to speak. but hawks is tired of hiding who he is and is like ok, great then we’re official and dabi is like ok cool can we get back to making out or... ?
so after this point, hawks makes it official: posts pictures with dabi in them and adds cutesy captions, talks about him in interviews and with fans who ask polite questions, even brags about dabi to his coworkers though they have yet to meet dabi in person.
and even tho hawks is so happy and proud to be able to tell the world he’s dating dabi, there’s still a part of him that worries that dabi won’t be able to handle this kind of life style. one where hawks (and now dabi’s) life is up for public consumption, where the paparazzi give them no moment’s peace when they catch wind of their presence, where any little misstep could lead to a scandal.
hawks frets and worries, but dabi handles it like a champ, doesn’t get flustered when cameras are suddenly flashing in his face while they’re taking a walk, is unphased when hawks is swarmed for autographs and pictures in the mid-conversation. at one point, hawks questions how dabi is handling this sudden shift in lifestyle so well.
dabi’s answer? he’d probably kill a man if it got hawks to stop wearing his sad sack of shit “disguise” every time they went out somewhere. being a little famous is a small price to pay so he doesn’t have to stare at hawks’ dumb sunglasses and hat indoors combo like a fuckin’ twat.

heyyy Julia 💜 it’s your carrot anon ~ i’m not sure if you got my last message where i mentioned that i wasn’t feeling well and taking some days off to recover, but i’m back now ✨ sorry for making you wait 🙏
about the pikachan video… i know exactly what you’re talking about <3 it’s really cute and i really admire how he can laugh at himself and keep a ‘water off a duck’s back’ attitude ~ i think a lot about how it must be really tough for him sometimes being the youngest of 13 and then on top of that the others do Not let him live most of the time dgdgsj like it’s definitely not a position everyone would be able to handle if you know what i mean 💕 anyways while we’re on the topic of chan… the anyone special video hELLOOOO?????? please tell your boy to calm down please??!??!? hybe needs to close the gyms forever this is an emergency he’s a hazard to society. what the hell!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
aah so minghao was your first <3 honestly it makes sense if the tag episodes were the first ones you’ve seen! 🌟 i love hao a lot 🥺 another 10/10 boy. and same performance unit is also definitely my favorite 💜 obligatory question then: what’s your fav perf unit song?
honestly you’re so big brained for liking the ttt episodes the most 😌 it’s really just them in their natural habitat and the least one especially was sooo much fun ✨
about the merch: no, i don’t have any. idk i’m not really the type to collect things. i’ve bought albums before (a couple of years ago) but i’ve given them all away or sold them bc i simply have no use for them. i usually buy albums digitally now. wbu though? do you collect?
and since we got the next mission - a sleepover concept, how exciting 🌙✨ here comes my next question: what are your top 5 kpop songs (in general, not just svt) and what are your top 5 things to do in summer? ☀️
glad to hear your assigned person finally replied <3 hope you’re having a good time talking w them ! 🥰 and yes so true carats are so cute, caratblr especially is a really wholesome community 🌱 alright then have a good day! 🌼 sorry again for taking a while to come back to your inbox !!
lkjdfljldkajlfjsa anon i am so sorry i forgot to respond for hours bcs i saw you ask in the inbox during my half hour work break and wanted to respond when i am home sorry :( I did get you message. sorry i didnt answer it. i hope that was alright... please always take the time you need and never feel sorry for not being in my inbox 24/7 your health is more important than anything else so pls dont say sorry (oh my i just notice how long my response is while writing. i am very sorry)
about not letting chan life... yeah i never know how to react when they treat him like this... like they are joking around but it also feels like they actually mean what they say sometimes. like with the last gose episode... he seemed lowkey sad when he ask if they have ever praised him the last 10 years. yes!! anyone was dskfjsdajflksdjfknaslkfnsdlkaf. I just sat there like O-O. all of them looked so handsome. but this dudes outfit was just fkldsajfklsjaflkjsalfjsla.
ah i still love hao tho! i think hes the mindset of the boys i can relate to the most. oh fav perf unit song is hard. i think it is highlight bcs the lyrics are so beautiful imo. (yeah i know the misheard lyrics i still love the song) wbu, anon?
i only have some of their albums (at least which were available): i own all albums that are from 2017 or newer (always just one ver tho). for some of them even some versions were sold out already :( hope i will be able to get the older once one day. I really want to have the debut mini album. oh my i didnt even notice the mission changed. i have such struggles keeping up with it :( my top 5 would probably be (at the moment): naughty boy by ptg, black mirror by oneus, yellow cab by dpr live (if thats considered kpop), no air by the boyz and adore u probably. ah i somehow hate saying this but i feel bad that these are just title tracks. idk i probably havent been a multi for long enough to appreciate bsides enough. spring snow by ptg would have been a close contestant too, so that one bside at least. what are you top 5 bsides by any group? also another sleepover mission question: have you ever seen svt live?
my top 5 things to do in summer? uuuhhhmm 1. work. bcs currently i work my regular weekend job and additionally to that i have a obligatory internship during the week. luckily the internship will end after a month tho! 2. spent too much time in front of the laptop and being on tumblr hahaha. 3. lacking of sleep bcs i am dumb and midnight is the earliest i go to bed atm but i have to be up at 6am (but this was a problem already before summer) 4. uhm breathing i guess 5. i am out of things, summer hasnt been very nice to me up until now but i havent had a sunburn this year so far so yay i guess. wbu? do you have any special plans this summer? do you plan on going anywhere or have you been anywhere already this summer? i hope you have/did have a nice day too. hope you are well <3
