I'm bored and in a kkg brainrot mood, so i'm just gonna rant about my opinions of kakegurui ships and i will make some headcanons:

Kirasaya

Ok i had to start with them bc they're just too iconic, i think they have one of the most interesting and complex dynamics in kkg, they really got me obsessed with them, it's probably my number one kakegurui ship and the reason i started watching the show and reading the manga. Honestly yeah their relationship has some power imbalance, since sayaka is kirari's secretary, and is probably disfunctional, but contrary to what some ppl say kirasaya is not abusive, kirari never physically or emotionally abuses sayaka throughout the story. Anyway they're a 10/10, peak lesbian yearning, if they don't kiss at least one i will jump the author. Probably one of my fav ships ever, i think they're made for each other and i can't see kirasaya with anyone else, they're just so good together and their chemistry is >>>>>>

Yumary

Ok this one is kinda an unpopular opinion bc most people like yumary, but honestly i can't get invested into it, there's something in this ship that doesn't make my heart go "fuck yeah they should be gfs". Personally i don't ship yumeko with anyone bc i can't imagine her in a relationship since her main thing is being a compulsive gambler, her existence revolves around it and she forms relationships when they're useful for her gambling games. I think yumary could be friends with benefits for some time, but after a while mary would probably break it off because i don't think she can handle a sexual/romantic relationship with yumeko and after a while it would make her go nuts. A friendship between them is already messy and complicated and honestly i don't think they are compatible that way. Yes they have chemistry and there's probably some mutual attraction but to me it's a no. Also can cishet dudes stop fetishizing this ship ? My vote is 6/10, mostly bc mary doesn't seem much physically comfortable with yumeko, idk mary just seems off with her in that sense and i prefer them as gambling partners or friends.

Meariri

I honestly love this ship, especially after reading the manga, they have such an great dynamic, i think they both care about each other, they have chemistry and i think they're compatible and that their personalities compliment each other, mary is often loud and aggressive and passionate while ririka is more closed off and quiet, they're like fire and ice and this case i think the saying "opposite attract" works with them. Mary counts on ririka and i love the fact that she is so comfortable with her physically (mary is almost always the one to initiate the contact, holding her hand, touching her head, etc) and ririka gets inspired by mary to be her own person and chase her goals. Plus they're really cute together, aesthetically i find them the most attractive couple, i'll give them a solid 9/10

Itsukaede

Lmao i don't even know if this is the correct ship name for itsuki x kaede, ok i don't hate it and i think they could work as a couple, it's not my cup of tea bc m/f ships bore me, but i like their relationship, they have the kind of old married couple dynamic that always works. 6/10.

Ryomeko

I can see it happening, i don't ship it, but i don't mind it either, i'm kinda neutral about ryota x yumeko, but i think he's one of the ppl who care about yumeko the most in that academy (with also mary ofc), the ship is boring bc ryota is bland (he's a good guy don't get me wrong and he defo doesn't deserve the hate he gets) and as i said previously i don't ship yumeko with anyone. Sorry i gotta give it 5/6 out of 10

Yumedari

Ok i love midari but just like yumeko, i don't ship her with anyone bc i see her as someone who's too much unstable for relationships, but i know that canonically she loves/likes/is attracted to yumeko so i don't hate this ship, i think it's decent, the only problem is that yumeko hates midari. Still i think that since they're the most insane mfs in that school somehow this ship could work. 6/10

Yuridari

Again midari in my eyes is kinda unshippable, but this ship is not bad at all, they would have that kind of bickering married couple dynamic like itsuki and kaede, i like it but it doesn't do much for me. 7/10

Ryomary

Jsjssjsksk i looked the name of mary x ryota's ship on wiki so if it sounds weird it's bc i don't know their ship name and i have looked at the first site google gave me. This ship is hard no, mainly bc ryota is very bland and i consider mary a lesbian (i read that she is a canon lesbian but idk if it's confirmed by the author, let's say lesbian mary is just my hc) so shipping her with men feels like a hate crime to me, mary is for the girls only, 4/10.

Tsumary

They are kind of cute together right ? I think they're adorable, tsuzura is mary's first love and i think that someone like her would make mary very happy. I still haven't finished kkg twin, so my opinion on tsuzura is incompleted and it might change, i don't hate her but i find her character a little basic/boring so even though this ship is cute it doesn't make me fall in love with them. 7/10 bc probably also tsuzura had feelings for mary and they have a healthy dynamic, you can see they love each other.

Midasaya

I enjoy this crackship, i know that they both like different people but i headcanon that they were together during middle school or that midari had at least a small crush on sayaka during that time, before kirari came to hyakkaou i like to think that they explored their sexuality together so midari was probably sayaka's first kiss, her first date, etc, so they would have history together and we also see that midari knows sayaka bc her character is described through her pov during tower of doors. I find this ship pretty funny bc sayaka is always so serious and composed and midari is a ball of chaos. 7/10

Yumesaya

This is another crackship i don't mind and find hilarious, yeah i'm a huge kirasaya stan but i'm also a multishipper and sayaka deserves all the girls in the world, so the more the merrier. I like to think this ship as one sided love in which yumeko sort of pines after sayaka and i think it would be very interesting to see kirari being jeaulous that sayaka is getting yumeko's attention. We saw jeaulous/protective sayaka in kakegurui, but i would also like to see how kirari reacts when someone tries to take sayaka away from her, it would be really interesting. Obv this would create some tension between kirasaya and also between kirari and yumeko, almost a sort of love triangle dynamic. My opinion is that yumeko is just too unstable to settle down, also they both probably would get bored/lose interest in each other after the heat of the moment. 6/10

Ririsaya

Sorry but i really can't see it happening not even if i squint, but i really enjoy the ririsaya fanfictions and i think those works are pretty great even though i don't ship them very much. It would be interesting if both twins were in love with sayaka and there was some tension/coldness between them for a while bc they liked the same girl (maybe i read too many fanfictions). My headcanon is that both sayaka and ririka had a crush on each other when they first knew each other and for sayaka it was probably pretty confusing bc she already had feelings for kirari. I see them as friends, 7/10

Yumemisaori

Again idk if this is the correct name of the ship, many said that yumemi and saori are a healthier/mentally stable version of kirasaya and i agree. the dynamics are similar bc we have the secratary that is willing to do everything for her boss and the relationship is a little more balanced, i think they would be very cute together, but sadly they had very little interactions and if i could see more of them i would probably ship them even more. I like them 7/10.

Sachiko x Mary

I didn't even find a ship name for this couple, so they must be pretty unpopular, i like both characters and their antagonistic dyanamic is very interesting, but i don't ship them much bc i think mary needs/wants someone who is completely different from sachiko, who wants to make mary her pet and mary is someone who cares very much about her freedom, her indipendence and wants to make her own choices and this completely clashes with sachiko's extremely sadistic and domineering nature. I prefer them as enemies who have some sexual tension or enemies with benefits or one night stand adventure, but nothing more. 5/6 out of 10 bc the only mary ship i really love is meariri and i also like tsuzumary a bit.

Sachiko x Mikura

This is probably one of the most unhealthy relationships in kakegurui, but i kinda like it. Their dyanmic is pretty much vertical with sachiko who has all the power and makes mikuro do everything she wants and mikura who is completely obsessed and devoted to sachiko (my opinion is that she developed a sort of stockholm syndrome towards sachiko). I think that someone like sachiko could never have genuine romantic relationships bc of her extremely sadistic nature, she sees ppl like toys to break and what she enjoys the most is seeing ppl suffer, so the only compatible person with sachiko is someone extremely masochistic like mikura. Giving them a 6/7 out of 10 bc their interactions are fun/interesting and spice things up.

Rin x Ibara and Yumeko x Kirari

Hard no to both of them, i don't ship incest, yall can do what you want but personally it's a huge no for me. When i first started watching the anime at the beginning i thought yumeko and kirari had some sort of tension and could have been enemies to lovers (lmaoo i was so naive), but then i discovered they were cousins and i saw more kirasaya interactions so i got completely turned off by this ship. 3/10 to both of these ships.

Sachiko x Sakura

Now this ship is very sexy, idk why i like it but i do, yes i don't see sachiko with anyone besides mikura, but this pairing is not bad at all, even though it's a crackship. I think they would be rivals with benefits and would argue a lot and then make out/have hot sex. 7/10 (maybe it's too high but since these are just my opinions i won't be objective)

Mary x kirari

Uhm is there really someone out there who ships them ? Yeah i thought they had some sexual tension in s1 with that tea scene, but it's a no from me, i don't like it and i don't think they're compatible in any way, i can't see kirari with anyone who isn't sayaka. 4/10

Red (Redfinch)

Despite their breakup, Albert still wanted to go see Finch perform in one of his concerts when Race asked him if he wanted to come. This is the perfect chance for them to talk things out again but words aren’t cooperating for either of them. With that, Finch decides to triy a different form of communication.

Words : 5233

Part : -

Warnings : Alcohol, cursing, cigarettes, angst in general

A/N : Woah that’s a crazy word count uhh,,,, hi i’m back with another fic. Another redfinch and for that we stan lol (well idk maybe yall are annoyed by all these redfinch fics but yknow what? i’m thriving off of it) But fr I’ll eventually get into writing other ships but for now have one more redfinch combined with another tswift songs (as you do) this time with Red. Wow we are so surprised who would have thought of redfinch being associated with the song red no we aren’t surprise :D This one specifically exists in my bandsies au. you don’t need to read that first to understand this (i think?) but it wouldn’t hurt if you checked that out as well:) Tbh i can’t decide whether i love it or hate it but at least i like it enough to post it. N ee wayysss enjoy!!

His brain is screaming about how much Albert shouldn’t be doing this. Comprising a list of cons that goes on forever. And although he thinks all of the cons his brain had written is logical, that one pro his heart wrote beside the long list was all it took for Al to say yes. All the cons will be worth suffering through if he finally gets to see Finch again. And maybe it’s for the better since he’s not doing well by distancing himself from the boy.

Unfortunately, the world isn’t black and white. Meaning that even if he did choose to follow what his heart wants, all the horrible feelings will still be there. And with every step he takes, inching closer to the entrance of the building, he’s getting even more terrified by the second. Thankfully, the line for the entrance is going pretty slow which gives time for Albert to calm down.

But it’s not helping. The line is crowded and full of fans, talking excitedly about the band’s awaiting concert inside. For some odd reason, he can only hear the conversations between fans that contain one specific name. He doesn’t hear anyone mentioning Romeo, Elmer, or Jojo’s name. Not even Crutchie, who he’s been told to be the fans’ favorite. Just the name Finch, being repeated all around him. With adoration and excitement lacing the name. The line is delaying the inevitable and the people around him makes him a bit overwhelmed.

“We can still turn around if you want. I’m sure they’ll find a way to give us a refund”

If he’s actually being honest, it was his best friend that got him to come. Race returned to their shared apartment a few weeks ago and rushed to ask Albert if he wanted to go see their friends performing tonight. Race knows about Al and Finch’s break up but it’s worth asking him first. And to his surprise, he said yes.

“No, it’s fine” Albert replied, “I’m fine”

“You’re picking your pimples right now”

“So?”

“It’s one of your nervous habits”

That piece of information really caught Al off guard. He didn’t think a tiny random fact about himself would actually corner him the way Race is doing now. Eyeing Albert through his glasses and raising his eyebrows despite his forehead being mostly covered by his beanie.

“Well… I-” Albert tried to come up with bullshit as fast as he could, “I like to do it on purpose too, alright?! My fingers just... get a little itchy!”

He slowly puts his hands down from previously reaching up to pick his face. And the line is still going slow, one step at a time. It’s not doing any favors for Al.

“Dude, it’s alright if you’re not ready to see him” Race continued, “It takes time, I get it”

“Race, I’ll be fine! How many more times do I have to tell you?” Albert argued, which finally made Race back down. And to make sure it’s no longer gonna be brought up, Al changes the subject, “By the way, where’s Specs and Mike? You said they’re watching too”

“They’re already backstage with the others for... obvious reasons” Race answered casually, catching on to Albert's intentions to change the subject. “So is Kath, by the way. We’ll meet her in there though”

To that, Albert simply nods. His jittery movements turn into rocking his body on the ball of his feet while digging his lips with his teeth. Race tries to pretend he doesn’t notice, but he does. Albert knows he does. Although he’s glad he’s not bringing it up because it might make it worse.

He’d be lucky to know that he’s not the only one panicking over this. In the dressing room, an aggravated Finch throws his phone to the cushion of the couch after sending the last text to his friend Race. It sounds unlawful for Race to be ‘secretly updating’ Finch on how Albert is actually doing because it’s obviously something Albert doesn’t want to directly tell his ex.

Finch groans, placing his elbow on his armchair to support his head. The room is spinning in his view and he wishes it all to stop. Taking deep and long breaths to stabilize his shaky limbs. A little prayer starts playing in his heart, it follows the tempo of his fast heartbeat.

“He’s here, isn’t he?”

Finch opens his eyes and looks up to meet his bandmate sitting on the couch across from him. He hadn’t even been talking for a good hour because he’s too fixated with the first text Race sent him when he and Al first started making their way to the concert.

“Yeah, he’s in line” Finch replied, looking up to the blond boy who’s holding his bass.

“How are they not being mobbed?” Another voice rang. This time it’s not coming from one of Finch’s bandmates. It’s coming from Race and Albert’s bandmate, sitting next to the shortest member of Finch’s band on the couch.

Specs only ask that because their two bands have a long connecting history and their fanbase tends to be sort of the same in a way. With Specs dating Romeo and Mike dating Jojo, Race and Albert are bound to be recognized and mobbed by at least a few fans. Especially seeing that Albert is Finch’s former lover, although the fans know that as a rumor since the two never publicly addressed it.

“I’m assuming they’re wearing a lot of shit to cover their faces” Another answered, the other VIP of the show alongside Specs, Mike. He’s twirling his drink in his hand while the other keeps Jojo cuddled close to him, “I mean, Al’s head is really fucking bright!”

With the mention of that specific name, Finch sulks back in his armchair with a groan. He covers his face with his hands, hoping it’d make the world just stop for one second. He could hear a loud clean slap echoing the room, followed by overlaps of whispered scolding. If he had to guess, it was Mike who was the one getting slapped and scolded.

“This is a disaster…” Finch exclaimed to himself, still not lifting his face up.

“It doesn’t have to be unless you make it like that” this time a feminine voice spoke up. A voice he recognized to belong to Kath.

Finch hears footsteps approaching him. He feels the motion of someone softly kneeling down in front of him. His hands were gently pried open and he was met with Kath’s friendly smile.

“It takes time, but you gotta trust the process”

It’s not necessarily the words he needed to hear right now, but it still warms his heart to hear his friend still being there for him despite the sticky situation he has gotten them into.

Everything would’ve been just fine if Finch hadn’t been so pushy and upset over Albert’s decision. He was the one that decided to put his music career on hold to go get that engineering degree, which frankly seems pretty useless. Finch was so dirty for pulling the ‘you’re being selfish’ card at him when it’s not even his band at all. Race, Specs, Mike, Ike, and even their manager Denton were very supportive about his decision to get that degree. Heck, all their friends were! But not Finch. His boyfriend at the time. He argued like he secretly knew how the others felt about Al leaving when really there aren’t any secret feelings for him to know. All his arguments came from his own feelings.

However, he knows Albert’s ‘own decision’ was secretly coated by his father’s persuasive words. The whole ‘just in case the music career doesn’t work out’ argument was basically the copy and pasted words from his father. They both know it. Despite the arguments, it still seemed that Al was determined to fully focus on college anyways. Instead of following his fellow musician friends’ college path by getting a degree in the non-lecture-hall way, he followed his father’s words and actually attended his college classes in a proper campus.

In the moment, Finch was just too focused on Albert leaving. Maybe he was the one being selfish. He had only realize now that most of his arguments were because he didn’t want Albert to go. It’s too late now, since the last time they saw each other was when Al slammed the door of their apartment one last time with all his stuff and a plane ticket to Seattle. At that point, Finch was finally tired of all the arguing and told him that if this was his plan then he’s on his own.

The tears that came after were filled with sorrow and regret. Sorrowful because he missed him. Regretful because he only realized then that there was no valid reason for Finch to lash out in the first place other than for his own needs. The feeling is still present to this moment. And it’s currently the strongest right before a show because he knows he’s gonna be in the crowd.

“Look, we’ll let ya drown out your feelings with some booze later” Crutchie finally said, “But right now we got a show”

The band was all getting up from where they were seated, bringing whatever they needed to the stage. Crutchie gets some help from Jojo to bring his Bass till he properly sits on the stool on stage. But Finch stays perfectly still, holding Kath’s hand as if his life depends on it.

“I know I should talk to ‘im, Kath” Finch finally said, slowly joining the others in standing up. Kathrine follows along, eyes still fixed to her friend, “But… I can’t. I wouldn’t know what to say to him”

“Then don’t talk” Mike suddenly inserts himself in their little conversation. He gets up and approaches the two, “Sing him the new single”

“You’re fucking insane, Mike!” Katherine instantly snapped.

“Alright, your mouth will be legally sealed shut till the end of the concert” Specs joins them only to drag Mike away. There were some protests from the boy, but it was totally shut down by everyone else in the room.

“No, wait. He’s got a point” Finch suddenly exclaimed, which quickly got the whole room to freeze in time.

He looks at his bandmates, all standing by the doorway ready to kill the concert. A half confident smile appears on his face and he says, “Let’s sing that single”

The concert is held in a bar like-venue with multiple floors, slowly being filled to the brim by excited fans. Their excitement bounces off the walls of the venue, creating an ecstatic kind of environment despite the tight space. The concert is going to start any minute now and while the fans surrounding him are shaking in excitement, Albert is shaking in a nervous fit.

“Still okay there, Al?”

Albert looked to his side, seeing his good friend Kathrine looking up to meet his eyes with concern. She had just joined the boys in the midst of the crowd after hanging out behind the stage with the band.

“What? Yeah, I’m okay” He replied, “What makes you think I’m not?”

“You’re squeezing my hand a little too tight”

Al had only realized he’s been holding Kath’s hand just now. His brain was too focused on his fears about meeting Finch again to the point that he hasn’t been paying attention to his surroundings. He gets bashful all of a sudden, cheeks going a bit warm, harshly pulling away from her grasp.

“It’s okay, you can hold my hand if you want,” Katherine said gently.

“Kath, I’m fine!” Albert said, “Why won’t you and Race believe me?”

“Because we know it’s utter bullshit”

The pair looked back towards the crowd behind them where the familiar voice originated from. There, Race struggles through a sea of people with two drinks in hand. Oddly enough, he still seems to stand the heat despite still wearing his face disguise. A white cotton mask, black-framed glasses, and a grey beanie mostly providing cover for his blond curls. While Al, seeing that the venue is pretty dark and speculations has led him to believe that the fans would be focused on the concert rather than the people attending it, had already put away his mask. However, his fears still made him wear his snapback and grey-framed glasses just in case.

Albert takes his rightful drink, and with a free hand, Race takes off his own mask and stuffs it in his pockets. He complains about the stuffiness from wearing the mask all while doing so, which made Kath laugh. It appears the Albert-scolding has been forgotten for the time being, as Kath and Race starts engaging in their own conversation, which Al doesn’t mind because he’d much like to down his beer quickly.

And then the concert finally starts.

An exciting intro starts playing as the band enters the stage. The wild crowd welcoming the band is deafening to Albert’s ear. Time freezes and everything in between fades away. All he sees is Finch, up on stage wearing a smile brighter than the lighting of the venue itself. He’s using his old dark green guitar. The same one he uses when he’s writing songs in bed or when he just feels like strumming the strings. Albert remembers the memoirs of all the guitar string scars he had earned throughout the years of knowing him. Some of them were even caused by Albert himself.

Lucky that Finch hasn’t noticed Albert has been staring at him the whole time. He hasn’t taken his eyes off of the boy since the start of the first song, shimmering under the spotlight with amazing vocals. Laughing about at his fellow bandmates’ antics on stage. Oh, that laugh. It gives him butterflies in his stomach like it was the first time hearing it.

He can feel two pairs of familiar eyes on him. But he’s too far gone to care. Albert really did make a big mistake for letting Finch go that easy. Because at the end of his previous college days, he still loves him and misses him dearly. His little Finchy. It doesn’t matter to Al anymore if Race and Katherine are eyeing him with sorrow or the whole world were to look at him weirdly for fixating his own eyes towards the beautiful boy on stage. He was his beautiful boy. Good lord, does he long to see the days when he got to call Finch his.

“Holy shit, I fucked up” Albert muttered under his breath, only Kath and Race could hear it, “I should’ve never had left”

His friends were definitely not expecting Albert to verbally exclaim his regret. They already knew from the start despite the redhead’s previous denials. But hearing him say it just makes it all more real. Even Albert himself was hit by a truck of reality just by loudly announcing it.

“Well, now you know” Katherine started, gentle voice on the same volume as his own despite the volume of their current surroundings being incredibly loud, “Go tell him that after the show”

“I can’t. I shouldn’t” Albert replied, fully turning away from the stage to properly look at his friends. A glint of sorrow and desperation flashes before his face, “I might make things worse!”

“Well, you’ll never know till you try” Race said, sounding a little hesitant at the start. He offered a warm smile at his friend and a hand on his shoulder, since there isn’t much he could do in the moment.

With a heavy sigh, Albert turns back towards the stage only to witness the biggest surprise of his life. Finch looked back. Straight into Albert’s eyes, it pierced right through to get his heart thumping loudly in his ears. He just realized the song the band was previously playing had ended and they were waiting for the fans to quiet down. While Romeo playfully over-dramatize his thank you’s to the crowd and gets scolded by Elmer and Crutchie, Finch was continuously staring at Albert. The hands that were previously used to play with his guitar hang idly because his center of attention wasn’t at his instrument right now.

It might just be some form of hallucination Al retained from the high, but Finch seemed to be smiling at him a little. Just a little curve at the end of his lips while he’s still staring back.

Albert doesn’t know how to interpret this other than to just stare back. Deep down, his heart is flipping in all kinds of ways and his thought process is no longer comprehensible. He’s trying to read the other boy’s emotions but it’s too neutral to tell. Other than the fact that he’s smiling a little at him but that still doesn’t give him a proper answer.

Eventually Finch becomes the first one to look away, seeing that the audience had settled down for the band. Albert’s eyes were still glued to Finch, retaining his focus back to the concert. He opens his mouth for a moment to say something into his microphone, although he unexpectedly stopped. The flow of words seemed to cut short. He saved himself by pulling himself away from the microphone up front and towards the rest of his bandmates. Judging from the body language, they seem to be whispering.

“What’s happening?” Albert whispered, more to himself rather than to his friends.

“I’m not sure…” Race replied, taking a step closer to where Al is standing.

The band kept the discussion short and quickly got back to their places. Finch seems to hesitate the second time he opens his mouth to speak. But this time, he gets the words out.

“Uhh… sorry ‘bout that. I uhh… I just got the urge to go a bit out of our fixed setlist and uhh… hope you guys don’t mind” Finch explained with a little giggle at the end. The crowd couldn’t care less and cheered on. Finch smile widens at the agreement, “We thought we’d give ya an early access to our newest single that hasn’t been released yet”

A euphoric feeling passed through the crowd as the cheering got louder. It baffled Finch so much that he laughed into his mic.

“Oh my god, they’re actually doing it” Katherine commented under her breath.

But Al’s ears were sharp enough to catch it. He snaps his head around to face the girl behind him, “Do what?”

Katherine was rendered speechless to that question, despite obviously knowing what’s going on. Albert turns to Race but he has no idea. He finally turns back to the stage where Finch’s gaze was already waiting to be returned by Al himself.

Without breaking the gaze, Finch speaks into the mic with a little smile, “It’s called ‘Red’”

It was Albert’s turn to be speechless. He had no knowledge of a new single since he’s mostly been staying away from his ex’s social media for the sole purpose of moving on, which he had failed miserably. And none of his friends had told him anything about a single that’s title was a secret language only Finch and Albert share, littered with all sorts of vintage romance.

“Holy shit…” Race exclaimed, “...I had no idea they were gonna play this song”

The opening of the song starts with Jojo lightly plucking a few strings of his acoustic guitar. The crowd goes wild once again, energy bouncing off one wall to the other.

“Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street

Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly”

Crutchie sang the first line smoothly. At this point the other’s had joined in with their instrument. Finch fully ignoring the crowd and focused on looking at Al. Those blue eyes are trying to send a message to Albert and it’s being coded with the song they’re currently playing.

The song had carried on till it reached the chorus. All the instruments peaked at that moment and collaborated with each other to create a very euphoric sound. The crowd jumps along to the beat of the song along with a loud cheering, obviously enjoying the tune they have yet to listen to. Some were holding up cameras to capture this moment, most likely to later share it with the fans that didn’t get the chance to witness it live.

At this point, Finch had turned his face away from Al. There was a troubling look in his expression but it was quickly covered by closing his eyes as if he’s trying to concentrate on singing the chorus with the others. But Al is no fool. He knows that look on Finch’s face is when he’s trying to avoid something, and that something is him.

“Losing him was blue, like I'd never known

Missing him was dark gray, all alone

Forgetting him was like trying to know

Somebody you never met

But loving him was red”

The words moved something in Al. It was written in a way Albert recognized it to be Finch’s writing style. Every single part of the song. From the melody, the chord progression, even the lyrics. Especially the lyrics.

“Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword

And realizing there's no right answer

Regretting him was like wishing you never found out

That love could be that strong”

As Finch harmonized that line with Jojo, he stole a little sad side glance at Albert. The song returns to the chorus once again, Finch gets dragged with the beat and lightly moves his body along.

Albert gets captivated along with the music. He can feel the corner of his lips slightly rising up, which is pretty ironic seeing that Finch is singing a breakup song about them. Maybe because he’s relieved to hear Finch sing about how he’s not fully over him. Or maybe it’s because he gets to see Finch embracing the break up, which could potentially mean that he’s okay with it. But whatever it is, he’s happy seeing Finch like this. Or just seeing him in general.

“Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes

Tell myself it's time now gotta let go

But moving on from him is impossible

When I still see it all in my head”

The chord progression’s pattern slightly changed. Finch sings his line into the microphone, closing his eyes as if to soak up all the intoxicating energy he gets from the crowd. Of people flailing their hands into the sky and a loud chorus of undecipherable shouting. But at the last line, he steals a proper glance back at Albert.

“In burning red”

The lyrics really says it all. There’s no more hidden message that Albert needs to decipher, as it's being presented right in front of him.

Finch takes over the next part of the song, shredding his guitar which makes the crowd go wild. At the moment, it looks like he’s feeling himself. Moving along with the motion of his fingers that creates each note.

“Oh, losing him was blue, like I'd never known

Missing him was dark gray, all alone

Forgetting him was like trying to know

Somebody you never met

'Cause loving him was red”

The song is supposed to be a punch to Albert’s guts, and yet he finds himself laughing at it. He catches a glimpse of Finch’s eyes, sneaking its way to look back at Albert every so often. And this time, he wears a smile while jumping along to the song. And it made Al smile back.

“His love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street”

As the song ended, the fans went wild. The look on Finch’s face seems satisfied at the success of the single they have yet been released to the world, shining at the sight of a hype crowd. He steals one last glance at Albert with a little smile on his face. Albert would dare to say he’s being a bit shy. To that, Albert smiles back with a disbelief laugh escaping his lips before Finch pulls his gaze away from the other boy.

After playing a few more songs, the concert ended. There was only one thing in Albert’s mind, which was talking to Finch. Race and Albert quickly put their disguise back on before the crowd had realized who they were as they exited the venue. The three stay behind as the venue gets emptied, Race and Katherine making quick work with their fingers on their phones to contact their friends backstage.

Jojo was the first to respond to either of them. He said that Finch is smoking behind the venue alone. One could only assume that he’s not in his best state after spontaneously choosing to sing that single. But Jojo assured them that he’s still good to talk to. Crutchie then responded, saying that Specs and Mike can pick them up to get them into the backstage.

It didn’t take them long, but Albert wasn’t keen on seeing the others right now. After being pointed towards the back door, Albert was already off. Adrenaline coursing through his veins as he makes quick steps towards it.

He gently opens the door, to avoid surprising the boy in case he was nearby. Albert steps out to a parking lot, open-spaced with another parking lot above it as its roof. At a first glance it was completely empty, only a few lights turned on to keep the area lit. His eyes gandered even further and spotted the boy he was looking for, back facing Al and his body leaning on metal bars as he enjoyed the nightlife of the city.

Albert took a deep breath to calm his adrenaline, slowing down his walking pace. The area is eerily quiet. Only a few things that can be heard: his footsteps, his thumping heart, and the sounds coming from the streets three stories below them. With every step closer, he slowly unraveled his makeshift disguise. Shoving his mask and glasses in the pockets of his jeans but left the snapback on.

“‘Loving him was red’” Albert said to catch Finch’s attention, “Did you mean it to be that obvious?”

Finch didn’t fully turn his head around, only halfway so Al can see the little grin of amusement forming on his face. A little chuckle escaped his lips, causing his chest to pulse along before he continued, “Not really. But it has a nice ring to it”

Albert takes a few steps closer towards the metal bars, leaning his body on it like what Finch is doing. Now he can clearly see the half burnt cigarette on Finch’s hand. Al tries to make eye contact with him, but Finch is purposely turning his head the other way and giving Albert his head full of blond curls.

“You came back” Finch suddenly said, voice hushed and low.

“Of course I came back” Albert replied, “You didn’t think I’d fully leave like that, did’ja?”

“Well, no. It’s just that you seemed so hellbent on going to college”

Albert slowly nods at that, moving his gaze towards the streets below like the other boy. They sit in the silence for a few minutes. Hearing different vehicles pass by the street below them and honking from the distance.

“Finch, I’m so sorry I left ya like that” Albert suddenly started, fully turning his face towards him. He couldn’t find a way to word it and so he resorted to just telling him the truth. Finch stays quiet to let him continue, “I was an idiot to let ya go that easily and all because I was selfish”

“You weren’t actually being selfish” Finch said, smiling a little at his words, “You did it because you wanted to. And it wasn’t hurting anyone anyways”

“It did. It hurt you”

Finch turns his head towards Albert. Now their eyes are looking into each other closer than before. The closest they’ve ever been since their breakup. A mixture of unsaid emotions made the gaze feel so intimate and it terrifies Al a bit.

“I hurt myself trying to get you to stay” Finch said softly. His next words got stuck in his throat. He gives his brain a few seconds to focus with a sigh out of his mouth and dragging his gaze away from Al, “I knew you never wanted to get that engineering degree in the first place which is another reason I didn’t want you to go. But at the end of the day, it was your decision to make and not mine. I lashed out on you and said you were selfish but… I was the one that was being selfish”

Finch turns his eyes back towards Al, his face looks more sorrowful than before, “I’m sorry”

A small smile formed on Al’s face, tilting his head to the side by a few inches, “It ain’t your fault for knowing me more than I know myself”

They leave the conversation at that for the time being. Letting the streets below fill the void of their silence. Both boys focusing their gaze towards the view they got from this height they’re on again. Finch and Albert left speechless at each other’s words.

Albert’s hands unconsciously reach up to his forehead, itching to pick a pimple like earlier. His next words almost got stuck in his throat but he was able to pull through just enough to get to his point, “Well, at the end of the day we uhh… we both fucked up. Fucked our relationship, that’s for sure-”

“Stop picking on your pimples, Al” Finch casually said. The surprise look on Al’s face got Finch to side eye him with a giggle.

Al pulled his fingers away, stuttering in his movements but still continued on his words with more confidence, “What I’m trying to say is… I want to try again as long as you’re willing to”

There was a good few seconds of silence that Finch used to just stare at him. Albert could only wonder what he’s thinking about inside that head, “So we just… what? Forget the breakup ever happened? Move back in together? You know I can’t just do that, right?”

“That’s not what I mean. We don’t need to rush things. I know you can’t do that” Albert said, “Just… let me start by making it up to you? Whatever you want. Just name it”

Finch didn’t respond instantly, letting the silence between them linger for a few more minutes. But it’s deeply agonizing to Albert’s ears. A blank space of two eyes locked in a gaze, and one is obviously dying to get out of it.

“Please, say something” Albert begged. Hands suddenly reaching back up to his face to pick on his pimples again.

With a free hand, Finch reaches towards Al’s hand on his face. He pulls it down to the bars, holding it in place to make sure it doesn’t repeat its mistakes again. The grip was firm, but warm and calming to Albert’s soul. It made him go blank for a good few seconds from being so touch deprived of Finch’s soft hands. He retains his sense of reality when their eyes finally meet again.

With a little smile forming on Finch’s face, he finally answers, “I’d like that very much”

My jolly sailor bold

I was talking with mod David and we just drifted in AU territory (this frightening land we keep turning into angst) and we talked about Danae as a merfolk/mermaid and Elvaid a sailor, strictly for the aesthetic of an underwater kiss.

Now, anyone that knows me also knows that I love to write. So... I wrote something. Sad. Blame it on him.

So... enjoy the sad fest of this AU with Elvaid as a mariner and Danae as a mermaid yalls

-A

Under the cut because long af

Also? The song I used as an inspo and added in???

---

“Dad… what’s a mermaid?” “A mermaid?” “Yes, a mermaid.” “Well… A mermaid is like… a very pretty sea lady.” “A very pretty sea lady?” “Yes, with a fish tail and gills. They live underwater, in the deepest depths of the ocean. They have the most beautiful singing voice you could imagine.” “Better than Mama’s?” “Even better than hers…A mermaid’s voice is just… magical… Just like their kiss.” “Their kiss?” “Yeah, according to legends, they can make you breath underwater… They say the sailors that kissed mermaids went deep undersea with them and never came back.” “Dad...” “Yes Elvaid?” “Did you ever see one?” “No, but sometimes I could swear I almost did.” “... One day, I’ll see a mermaid and kiss her... ... ... ... One day…”

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

Upon one summer’s morning

The sky, darkened by clouds, thundering high above their heads. The waves, immense, gigantic, violently crashing on the deck. The captain, shouting angrily, barking orders to his crewmen as they were running around, attempting to ready the ship for the incoming storm.

I carefully did stray

“Ro’Leah! Pull the fishnet up! Quick!”

And the young sailor pulled and pulled and pulled and pulled the strangely heavy net outside of the water and up on the deck. It seemed to him as if the trawl was fighting back, resisting his pulling up. Was it because of the increasingly violent waves pushing the ship around as if it was nothing more than an empty shell or because of the few fishes they had captured in the few hours since they had put the net in the water?

Down by the Walls of Wapping

As he kept pulling the net up, Elvaid could have sworn he heard a woman scream helplessly in the middle of the hubbub caused by the storm preparations. After what seemed like agonising seconds to his burning arms, pained from all the pulling, he finally hauled the net on the ship for good, emptying it’s content on the deck, fishes flapping helplessly as they started suffocating.

But there was something bigger, heavier.

Flailing around in panic, in the middle of the fish pile, a young fish-tailed woman was giving frightened glances around her, attempting to jump back in the water.

Where I met my sailor gay

“C-CAPT’N! CAPT’N THERE’S-” “THERE’S WHAT, RO’LEAH?!” “A-”

Elvaid couldn’t finish his sentence, her terrified sea green eyes had locked with his, killing every sound he could have make before it even left his throat. In that moment, the sailor knew, he just knew he had fallen in love.

As the entranced young man took a step towards the bewitching creature, one of his crewmates pulled him back as the other’s threw another net on her, trapping her on the deck. She hissed and trashed around, baring her sharp teeth as she tried to defend herself to no avail. One of the mariners kicked her face before she got to sing, effectively knocking her out in a last scream that shook Elvaid to his very core.

As soon as she had collapsed, the captain ordered him to carry her below decks and as he lifted her unconscious form, the Scot felt a tear roll down his cheek.

Conversing with a young lass

“Oi, you need to eat somethin’...” he pushed the dish towards her chained form.

Eyeing him silently, she pushed it back for the umpteenth time since he had first brought it to her. In between her refusals to drink, be bathed or eat, the mermaid was slowly withering away; perhaps it was because the captain had stated he wished to sell her away?

Who seem’d to be in pain

“Com’ on… you’re goin’ to die if ya don’t…”

The mermaid looked away, “doesn’t matter.”

Elvaid’s eyes lit up.

“So you actually can talk!”

The mermaid glared at him, quieting down again.

“... You know, you’re voice is really pre’ty.”

No reply.

“When I was a kid, my dad used to tel’ me sto’ies about mermaids.”

No reply.

Saying, Elvaid, when you go

The girl was eyeing him with some sort of curiosity, her painfully dry tail glistening in the lamp’s light. She tilted her head, observing his every moves.

“He said that mermaid’s voices were the pre’tiest… He didn’t lie.” “You do know I could kill you with it, right?” “If it means I could hear you sing, I wouldn’t min’.” “... You’re weird…” “Actually, Elvaid’s my name,” he grinned, pushing the dish to her again, “but you can call me wei’d all you want.”

I fear you’ll ne’er return again

“... Danae.” She mumbled, finally taking the dish.

His grin widened. “Tis a pleasure.”

And from that moment on, Elvaid was tasked with keeping Danae alive, feeding her, bathing her, keeping her company when no one else would dare to, and for him, and him only, she’d sing each night. And for him and him only, she’d chase his worse nightmares away, granting him a peaceful sleep for the first time in forever.

My heart is pierced by Cupid

“Angelfiiiiiish…” he whined, “how’s it to live und’r wat’r?” “Mmm… boring. Most of it is actually really empty.” She gently stroke his hair as he set his head on her laps. “Will you take me there one day?” “Pff… you wish.” “I do…. b’c’use that’ll mean I get to kiss you.”

I disdain all glittering gold

“We’ll be in port in two days, we’ll finally be able to see the creature. Get her ready.” “...”

There is nothing can console me

“N-No! They’re going to kill me!” She sobbed, curling up on the floor.

Elvaid extended a hand to grip her shoulder but all she did was hiss, pushing herself away from him.

“I-I’m sorry…”

But my jolly sailor bold

Elvaid entered her room in the middle of the night, quickly unchaining her using the key he had stolen. Danae gave him a confused look.

“I’m gettin’ you out.” “They’re going to kill you.” “Don’t care.”

He gently lifted the mermaid from the floor, hauling her up. “Let’s go.”

His hair it hangs in ringlets

The small boat was silent as he rowed them away to a safer place for her to leave.

“Here. We should be far ‘nough.” “...”

Danae didn’t move, looking at him with a mix of worry and sadness. He pushed a strand of her dark hair away.

“Com’ on Angelfish… You gotta go…”

His eyes as green as jade

“They’re going to kill you…” she repeated, tearing up. “I’ll be alrigh’... don’t worry.”

She shifted closer to him, pressing her forehead against him.

My happiness attend him

“No-”

Before she objected more, Elvaid pressed his lips against her, using this as a distraction to push her down in the water.

Wherever he may go

“Tha gaol agam ort.”

From Tower Hill to Blackwall

They found him drifting away the next day.

Beated him up. Chained him up. Locked him in the depths of the ship. Deprived him of light. Of water. Of food.

I’ll wander, weep and moan

Each night, he curled himself on the cell’s floor, crying softly, trying to sing himself to sleep, only to wake up, tortured by nightmares, calling her name. And the following day, they beated him until he fainted, pulled his nails out one by one, whipped him to unconsciousness, broke all of his bones, burnt him, blinded him.

But each time, instead of screaming, he would utter the same song she used to sing him.

All for my jolly sailor

“Ballast him and throw him over. He’s useless.”

Until he sails home

Elvaid didn’t react when his captain gave his final verdict. They grabbed him by his broken arms, owning a wince from him, before dragging him outside on the first deck.

“My heart is pierced by Cupid.”

They tied him up.

“I disdain all glitterin’ gold.”

They filled nets with rocks.

“There is nothin’ can console me.”

They tied the nets to his ankles.

“But my jolly mermaid bold.”

He sank like a rock.

Water filled his lungs, burning its way down, killing him from the inside.

Elvaid could feel life slowly leave his body as he sank deeper and deeper in the cold, darkened waters.

A form approached him.

My heart is pierced by Cupid

Someone untied him.

I disdain all glitterin’ gold

He kept sinking.

There is nothin’ can console me

She pressed her warm lips against his.

Elvaid took a breath of water.

But my jolly sailor bold

Hehe Edward and Mary yall

Edward X Mary

From Assassins creed black flag

Mary lives guys she needs to ok

Warnings: One swear word.

Summary: Edward finds out becomes protective

Edward Kenway a known pirate of the seas or should we say privateer. He was currently in Nassu sitting on some church's roof With James Kidd they needed to get into some place and gather information.

"Cant use stealth anymore" James said pulling a knife out slicing his finger a bit. He rubbed it on his lips giving them a red tint. He un hooked his banner becoming Mary Read again. Edward was in his own place looking off into the difference when he looked back at him well her. His face was frozen as she smirked.

"Distraction" She said and Edward blinked. "Ya names not James aye lass" He said.

"Not most days" She said.

"Come on then" She said jumping off then building into the hay bale running off. Edward chased after her still confused. After the mission thing what ever they wanted to call it. Edward walked up to James or what ever with a raised eyebrow.

"What?" She asked crossing her arms over her chest.

"So what's your real name?" He asked copying her move. She scoffed letting her arms fall to her side.

"Mary to my mother" She said. He nodded he liked it. Suddenly she was in his face, her face stern.

"If you tell anyone I will unman you" She said making him gulp he had no doubt she wouldn't. She winked and disappeared into the night. Edward made his way back to the ship trying to wrap his brain around this. Yes the lad seemed feminie but he just assumed he hadn't grown a pair. Well now he defiantly hasn't. Ade stood at the helm nodding at him he gave a small nod back going into his quarters.

The next few months passed he seemed to spend more time with the lass he felt the need sort of to protect her secret. He was sleeping at the tavern well more passed out.

When he woke up he frowned not seeing Mary she said she wasn't going anywhere. He frowned getting up slowly and asked Anne if she had seen her, she answered no and he began to worry. She wouldn't go anywhere with out telling anyone if it was important. He searched the city of Havana and frowned when he saw something suspicious a man was bringing a woman a knocked out woman into an underground hide away by the looks of it. Edward frowned and stalked closer. He knocked the two guards out and walked inside his body close to the wall. He knocked the remaining guards out looking in the cells finding nothing but women tied up. he freed them all as they ran away he frowned when he saw a very locked up cell with two black doors and a little peep hole. He looked through and saw Mary on the floor leaning against the wall she was clutching her stomach in pain he shook the door growling. That caught her attention.

"Edward?" She called in a rasped voice.

"I'm here" He called back. He looked around seeing if any guards came back. He shot the lock of and ripped the doors open. He rushed to Mary his hand going on her face gently.

"What happen?" He asked she coughed her face contorting in pain.

"Some douche bag drugged me" She coughed. Edward helped her up but she fell back down. He helped her again leaning all her weight on him.

"Come on where going to the doc" Edward said she went to protest but he gave her a look which shut her up. He walked her out slowly but she was too weak. What the hell did they give her. He carried her and ran out going to the docs house. He laid her on the bed as he was sent out. He waited nervously on the wooden chair in the small room. He paced when finally the doc came back.

"She gonna be alright?" Edward asked worry clear on his face.

"She'll be fine lad just needs some rest she can go home" He said and Edward nodded. She came back out a small smile on her face. She clutched her stomach still swirling. Edward helped her walk even as she pushed him away.

"Mary Read" Edward said as she tried to bat him off. She sighed glaring at him. She took his arm as they walked out. She kept a close eye out for people she knew ready to hide. They ran into some people such luck. They turned around quickly and Mary hid in Edwards chest with out thinking. Edward stopped frowning when he saw three men friends of James Kidd.

"Aye Edward" One said.

"Aye George" He said back as the man walked up. They eyed the woman in his chest frowning.

"She's a bit drunk" Edward said and they nodded smiling.

"Pretty little thing" One laughed. He felt a pinch in his rib and glared at her. She rolled her eyes and went along with it. She acted to fall over but Edward caught her.

"Aye better get her to a bed" Edward said to the men they nodded. Waving goodbye. Edward walked around a house and she finally left his side.

"Drunk really" She glared. She suddenly leant over puking into the bush. Edward held her hair back feeling it was soft. She leant her hand against the wood of the house coughing.

"You aright?" Edward asked.

"yeah" He nodded not convinced. He bought her back to the tavern in the back room as it was Anne's place.

"Needa get off this stupid island" She complained laying on the bed.

"Not till your better lass" He replied. She huffed.

"What the hell where they doing to ya?" Edward asked getting a glass of water.

"Drugged me with some shit and threw me in the cell" She said simply. She accepted the water gulping it down.

"You don't gotta baby sit me" She scoffed as he sat down.

"Aint got no where to go" He replied back. She rolled her eyes. She soon fell asleep Edward watching over her.

honestly, i’ll be Realistic. i know that asking stranger things to actually make steve/nancy/jonathan a Canon Polyamory ship is A Lot to Ask For, specially ‘cause it’s in the 80′s (tho, we all know that means nothing bc open relationships have existed since the beginning of time probably) and also bc ultimately the Point of this show is about kids friendship & familial love & monsters & An Open Love Letter to the 80s -- not these three teenage kids i happen to have fallen for but

i still feel like i should’ve had some sort of Nod to the fact that they can be more than just ur Basic Love Triangle -- they did in S1 so all ya’ll had to do was repeat that same idea.

I really thought I could see them all hanging out more, i know that nancy & jonathan shared more of a traumatic experience but at some point steve was there too & he Knows shit too so why would it become a Thing that only nancy & jonathan share?? Why kick steve our of the picture? Why split him & them, having steve still be a secondary-ish character with the kids & stuff? (its like youre physically punching me in the gut)

They were AMAZING in the end of S1 so why yall gotta go & pretend like thats not something that can happen again? They’re literally the only teenagers of the show, why wouldnt they hang out & do stuff together? (Listen, nancy DIDNT have to go all on a quest with jonathan, yall just couldve let steve “apologize -- which i know he didnt have to but still -- & then join jonathan & nancy. It would’ve provided u with either 1) Fun times 2) Awkward angst about how nancy Has To Pick bc she lives in a Monogamy-normative world or 3) All of the above -- specially bc if the theorist fuckhead had done his whole number on ‘’Analysing Nancy’ ft. Jonathan’ in front of steve it would’ve been like x10000 times better -- plus you would’ve get to make fun of the whole ‘love triangle’ aspect of it bc i know the theorist guy Would Have) Nah man, instead yall had them split without it being organic, really & pushed the triangle down people throats, succesfully making it awkward for both shippers of joncy & stancy (idk if thats the ship name for steve x nancy but yall get it) -- & idk if theres anybody out there who ships jonathan x steve but if there is, im so sorry for u buddy (they literally only speak to each other One [1] Time & its in the background of a shot lmao Tragic™)

All i’m saying is, you dont have to open S3 with a shot of nancy walking down the school hall holding steve’s hand on one hand & jonathan’s in the other (tho i would Die as Hell) but please, for the love of god, let the three of them be together more. balance their whole relationship if you want people to buy into the triangle BS -- make it interesting by having the boys Bond, make it different, make it organic & Not More Of The Same, or just, please, with cherries on top, make them polyam

#stony #nancy wheeler #steve harrington #jonathan byers #stranger things 2 #honestly I played Myself i know but yall really led me on @ stranger things writers #like u gave me this Good OT3 & then turned around & killed it dead? Cruel #rant #honestly just ignore me im upset
