attempting to scare briar valley's halloween ambassdor
Tumblr media
a/n i did my best :’3 hdhsv tbh i feel like his character is more complicated than cater’s fusgsgs legit had to look over his stories and sht to see if i did him justice (in which i didn’t) also slight spoilers for lilia's halloween card! along with some changes to the dialogue!
-180 words-
October fifth,
lilia vanrouge; prompt 17: “i know you’re trying to be scary but you’re just way too cute”
you were hiding behind a pillar waiting for lilia to approach. while lilia was “oblivious” to you, you jumped up in front of him or where he would’ve been, only for him to pop up in front of you upside down. 
“trick or treat!”
you yelped in surprise, not expecting him to turn the tables on you.
lilia chuckled seeing your reaction.
“how cute, you really thought you could scare me.”
you look up at him: pouting, “and i was so close too!”
he chuckles again, “i know, i know but be that it as it may, you’re just way too cute to be scary.”
“i’m not!”
“you truly are, though, attempting to scare me like that. I am known as briar valley’s halloween ambassador after all”
it was then you remembered how sebek and silver mentioned how terrifying lilia really could be if he tried. you wondered if that were true or not, however, considering how cute lilia is and how he strives to be adorable, you doubt he can really be that scary. 
oh how wrong you were.
(you can still request ^^)

If you ever finish answering all of yours awaiting asks...
45 questions for you 👀
https://myaekingheart.tumblr.com/post/650107314353897472/fic-writer-ask-game
Lolllll BADLUCKBREBIS, you are so funny.
Inspiration and Reading Asks:
1. How long ago did you start reading fanfiction? Writing fanfiction?
It looks like I started writing in 2017. I've been reflecting recently on how there are so many regularly active writers now compared to in 2017-2018. It was the tail-end of some of my fave writer's activity within fandom. Utsus was posting less and less. The Tumblr NaruHina fandom seemed to disappear, a whole community of writers left for other things (matchaball, nekomamoru, magmawrites, cherryjutsu, spyder-m, tenney-shoes, eliphya, among others). 2018 was a very quiet year, but! I avidly read katarinahime and bunnyhoodlum's works! In 2019, quirrrky restarted things with NaruHina Week!
2. How do you spend your time when it comes to fanfiction? Are you primarily a fic reader, writer, or a perfect 50/50 split of both?
Recently I’m primarily a reader!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because there's so many writers now!!!!!!!!
3. Are there any fics that inspired you to write what you do?
Yeah, let’s list them.  “A Special Friend” by agitosgirl inspired “Nightdreams.  “Medicine” by @grimmjowkurosakidrake​ inspired “White Lilies.  “Torch Song” by @mmmbuttery inspired “About You.”  The language in “Unless the World Were to End” by @bunny-hoodlum​ inspired the language in “That was the plan.”  “In Between Drinks” by @peppercornpress inspired “In Between Drinks NH.”
4. Link your three favorite fics right now.
“Operation: Bring Home Naruto” by Dragonwannabe - Rated T, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Complete. Hinata's been assigned the mission of getting Naruto back home safely after his last dangerous assignment. But can she handle the undercover identity as his girlfriend that she’d been given without revealing her true feelings for him?
“The Mission” by Lunawraythe - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. It wasn't that Hinata never expected to work with Naruto, just never on a mission quite like this.
“The Loving Type” by @peppercornpresses - Rated M, Canon-Divergent, Multi-chapter, Ongoing. A few years have passed since the Fourth Shinobi War, in which...Rookie Nine steadily advances in rank. Naruto gets engaged. Hinata leaves Konoha. And Kakashi schemes for days.
5. What are your fanfic pet peeves? Do they have a huge effect on whether or not you decide to read something?
ahhh.  I do have quite a few pet peeves.  If the fic is Canon-Compliant or Canon-Divergent, I expect Naruto and Hinata to behave like Japanese people.  Say what you want, but the Naruto Universe is definitely Japanese in my book.  So that means no shoes in the house.  Nothing rattles me more than reading Hinata taking her sandals off before climbing into bed.  Like, what?  she was wearing her outdoor shoes indoors this whole time??
mmm... another pet peeve is when the writer describes Hinata in a kimono, but it sounds like an American Halloween costume, like the slutty version, instead of an actual kimono.
mmm... and the other big pet peeve I have is when it’s Hinata’s first time eating ramen because Naruto is showing her the wonders of ramen.  lol.  why.  how.  in what world would a Japanese person make it to their teenage years without ever eating ramen.
I have a bunch of other little pet peeves regarding Japanese culture in fanfics.  But in general, it doesn’t stop me from reading the fic if I'm already in the middle of it.  I’ll continue reading it and will probably recommend it to other people anyway. If I can tell based on the summary, then it's not for me, and I don't read it. If this makes anyone feel nervous about writing fanfiction, that's not my intention! I would also be happy to be a sensitivity reader if necessary.
6. How do you find new fic to read? Where do you primarily read fanfiction?
I primarily read fanfics on AO3 and ffnet.  I find new ones by constantly checking the Hyuuga Hinata/Uzumaki Naruto tag on AO3 or looking into a writer’s favorites list on ffnet.
7. Do you prefer to read short fics or long fics?
Short fics.
8. How often do you reblog/comment on fics that you like?
I reblog pretty often. I don't comment as often as I used to😕 I used to comment on every fic I liked.
9. Tag 3 fic writers you think are underrated/unknown in the fandom/fanfiction community.
Uhh?? Idk. I think recently the writing group here is pretty tight, everyone seems to know everyone.
10. What’s your favorite fandom, pairing, or character to read fic for?
Naruto fandom and NaruHina.
Fanfiction Writing Asks:
11. How do you come up with your fic titles?
I usually take it from words used in the story or from the prompt.
12. Tell the author your favorite fic title of theirs (not the fic, strictly title). Author: what’s your favorite title you’ve come up with and why?
I think...maybe "Tell Me of Forevers" or "Nightdreams." I like those because they aren't taken word-for-word directly from the story, but touch on a theme in the story.
13. Do you outline your fics? How much of a headache would someone get if they just looked at an outline of yours without reading the fic?
Yes, I outline. They wouldn't get a headache, I think. It's usually just a summary.
14. Do you have a personal word minimum that you hold yourself too? Why or why not?
Nope. I didn't know people do that.
15. Tell the author your favorite fic of theirs. What’s your (the author’s) favorite fic you’ve written?
My favorite fic continues to be "It's No Secret."
16. Do you research for your fics? If so, how deep of a rabbit hole have you gone down by accident when researching?
Yes, I do. I've done historical and folktale research for "Little Samurai." I did area/location research for "Last Chance." I did historical research for "About You." I did fairy tale research for "Catskin." I did a ton of astronomy research for "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl." And I did lighting research for "Inspo." I go pretty deep.
17. How obsessively do you sit and stare at your fic after you’ve just posted and wait for feedback?
I don't. I usually have something else I need to do or I go to bed.
18. Do you have a WIP that you keep telling yourself you’ll eventually get back to, but deep down you know that’s probably a lie?
I actually think I can finish all of mine if I just try.
19. Do you edit your fics after you write them, or do you prefer to just hit post and run (because it’s someone else’s problem now)?
I always edit before posting to AO3. Anything I post directly on Tumblr might not be edited.
20. What’s your favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?
Posting!
21. What’s your least favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?
Starting a new chapter.
22. Do you take fic requests? If so, for what characters and why?
On occasion. If someone sends me a request, I'll think about writing it. Sometimes I do write and post it, sometimes I leave them in my drafts for a better day.
23. What’s your absolute favorite trope to write?
From what I already have posted, probably friends-to-lovers, secret relationship/forbidden love, or high school au. I don't think I have an intentional favorite.
24. What’s a trope that you’d like to never hear about as long as you live, let alone write?
Public humiliation / public degradation.
25. Do you listen to music as you write? If possible, link your writing playlist.
No, not usually.
26. What’s your biggest distraction when writing?
Tumblr feed, all the pictures to scroll through mindlessly.
27. Do you like to give your readers some warning of what might be coming or just slap them in the face with content at random?
lol, whatever is fine.
28. How do you deal with writing pressure (ie: pressure to update, negative comments, deadlines, etc)?
Well, pressure to update is not a big deal to me. I do this for fun, so I don't think I unnecessarily pressure myself too much. With negative comments, I don't get too many of those, and I think I do my best to avoid situations where I might get negative feedback.
29. Have you ever written for an exchange or event of some kind? Which one(s)? Did you enjoy it?
Yeah, I like the events. My favorite was NH2020, the year-long one last year. I also enjoyed the Secret Santa last year since @badluckbrebis was my giftee.
30. Post a snippet from your current WIP without context - no more than 300 words.
haha😈
Ecstasy slides through his veins, blooming over his mind, cocooning him in pleasant sensations, cum shooting out in eager twitches against hot, milking flesh.
31. Of the characters you write for, which is your favorite? Has that choice been swayed at all by your followers/readers’ reactions to certain ones?
Naruto Uzumaki, always.
32. Copy and paste your top three favorite lines/jokes/sentences you’ve ever written. What fics do they come from?
Top 3 faves in order:
That was the plan: "She shifts in his arms, and cloth and cleavage come pillowing up to his face, and he’s certain that she’s scooped from the same puffy stuff his adolescent daydreams were made of."
Tell Me of Forevers: "What he wouldn’t do to inspire every blush, every smile of hers for an eternity when such moments already only speak “forever” to him."
White Lilies: "Whether at his feet, in his eyes, ears, mind, if not reaching his heart, she never landed anywhere. (It’s okay.)"
I consider "White Lilies" to have my technically best writing, so it was kind of hard to choose just one line from that fic! But I decided that one's my favorite line from the whole story.
33. What do you like writing better: one shots or multi-chapter stuff?
One-shots.
34. How much of yourself and your life experiences do you put into your writing? What do you think your readers’ image of you is?
A lot of my life experiences are in my writing. Hmm, I think readers probably think I'm...hmm...either empathetic or really perverted?
35. How much has writing fic changed your life?
I spend a lot less time on real-life social media than before.
36. Are there any fics or fandoms you’re embarrassed to have written or been part of?
I'm kind of embarrassed of "Honeymoon at the Hot Springs" lol. It's fine.
37. Give an update on your current WIP - if you don’t have one, give a sneak peek to a title or idea that you have and would like to write.
My current WIP is that A/B/O fic I started for February Smut Month Prompts: Sweet as Candy or Love Bites. I'm going to title it "Sweet As," and it'll be about how Naruto and Hinata become Alpha/Omega mates. It's really kinky, really smutty, and totally what I would want to read.
38. What does your writing process look like? How chaotic is it on a scale of 1 (very tame) to 10 (you can’t handle this kind of chaos)?
uhh???? a 1?? I've never once thought of my writing process as chaotic. Ahh, then I think of bunnyhoodlum's multiple drafts for the same chapter, and I realize that there exist types of writing processes that I would not be able to handle...
39. What’s something about your writing that you pride yourself on?
My smut.
40. How did you come up with the idea for [x fic]?
41. What’s your most popular fic (with the most notes on tumblr, most hits/kudos on ao3)?
Idk about Tumblr,,, maybe White Lilies got the most attention here. My most popular fic is Nightdreams on AO3.
42. Asker: pick three of the author’s works. Author: rank them 1 (the best) - 3 (the worst) based on whatever criteria you want - this could be something totally random that isn’t quality related (like simply ranking fics based on how many trains appear in them) - have fun!
43. Talk about a positive experience with fanfiction or the fanfiction community that you will always remember.
I will always remember how people congratulated me for finishing White Lilies😭 Also, when peppercornpresses made that FIRST art of my story, I just, I just stared at it all day.
44. Rant about something writing related.
hmmm, I don't feel like ranting about anything. I just recently ranted about my pet peeves above.
45. Fic specific questions - if you have any weird questions about specific works, here’s your shot to ask them!
I did them all! Nice questions.

untitled Untamed time travel au, but make it Mingcheng
@piyo-13
Part 1: The set up
EDIT: Part 2A is up! Link at the bottom!
Okay, so, like I said. Mingcheng. Time travel. Fix-it.
(this is mostly a daydream and less a fic idea in and of itself, so I keep picturing it as a sequel to either Bilateral or shamelesscooper’s stuff - which I think this’ll be. a Spiritual successor)
So. Established Mingcheng as an ongoing, romantic relationship where they both understand that they’re building a relationship, not just a fling. We get A JC who, “canonically” can give NMJ a run for his money while sparring, and will *wear him out* in the bedroom. Like, I write smut, I think this is a *key element* in a top-tier Mingcheng fic (if they aren’t being written as asexual, naturally) and I think this dynamic just ADDS to JC’s budding reputation as a *stone cold badass.*
So, either way, you’ve read it. You know where they are.
To add a bit of angst for spice... Events play out as in canon, up through NMJ’s death. (I don’t think this is where established Mingcheng should go, btw - I think them being together changes events for the better and a lot of that shit is avoided). Broken hearted AGAIN (because lbr, NMJ was there for JC when his world fell apart. Probably even fought a bit - I needed your support! etc...) JC is visited by NHS.
He’s... different than JC remembered. Colder. Distant, but what was ditzy before is now aloof. Like he’s looking into you rather than through you. Nie Huaisang says.
“Jiang-xiong...did you love my brother?”
JC is incensed. How could NHS doubt his love? *JC* is not the one who leaves.
“Jin Guangyao killed him.” It’s the only time NHS says it out loud. “He sent Jin Zixuan to his death at Qiongqi path. He had his accomplice tamper with Wei Wuxian’s music, leading to—”
“Enough,” JC cuts him off. “So you want me to kill him for you?”
“No,” NHS said. “I want him unmade.”
Which - TIME TRAVEL MAGIC BA BOW
NHS sends JC back, but....I think I need something to go wrong. For reasons they use Baxia in the ritual, and NHS is adopting a ritual to send the self back to send JC back, but....
He gets it wrong and sends JC back IN ADDITION to himself
Baxia sends back NMJ
JC’s core sends back WWX
....handwavy some reason I want LWJ to be sent back as well
...and Wen Ning because he’s also tied to WWX and he’s alive but he keeps his ghost powers, I’ll explain later but it’s cool
...to the night before they start at Cloud Recesses
JC is like “alright! It worked! I have NHS’s plan. I rebuilt a sect before so I can totally do this!” ....but then WWX falls out of bed, freaking out and clutching his lower dantain, sobbing and freaking out- (because he’s a: suddenly very alive when he was dead and b: in possession of his golden core. It’s a bit disorienting) and JC is staring at him like: ...wtf? It wouldn’t be the first time WWX had nightmares, but they were about dogs- not whatever this is.
Anyway, then WWX sees JC, and JC can *see* the moment of fear (and that hurts because this WWX should not be afraid of him) and the mask fall and—
Look, JC isn’t stupid. He just time traveled. That look is what he had seen *after sunshot* so—
“What’s the last thing you remember?” JC asks, and the blank look on WWX’s face is *terrible*
“Ahaha...Jiang Cheng, what—“
“It’s nightless city, isn’t it?” (Going with untamed canon).
WWX‘a eyes get big, “Shijie!” And he twists like he’s going to up ans run to her—
“She’s asleep!” JC snapps. “You’ll see her in the morning.”
WWX blinks at him “will I still be here in the morning?”
“Unless NHS really fucked up, we both will be.”
“... What does Huaisang have to do with this?”
“He’s the one that sent me back,” JC said, and cocked his head. “I have no idea why you’re here too.”
And look - WWX isn’t going crazy from resentful energy, but he’s also a traumatized man. He’s thinking clearly but everything is closer to the surface- he flinches. JC knows that flinch- that guilty flinch that says WWX knows but doesn’t want to say.
“Wei Wuxian!”
And now he flinches, but when JC doesn’t lunge for him, WWX looks at him assessingly. “Why aren’t you trying to kill me again?”
“I wasn’t trying to kill you then! I never thought you’d—“ not survive that fall. “Do you know the last thing I remember? What made me agree to come back? Everyone was dead, JGS was insisting on JL spending more time at Koi Tower, and my lover was murdered- murdered by the same man who sent JZX to his death and set you up for his murder, and made you lose control at Nightless city, and a-jie--”
“You had a lover?!”
“Not the point!”
“Who was it? Do I know her?”
“I’m not telling you!”
“Tell me and I’ll tell you why I think I came back too”
“Fine. On three.”
“Fine.”
“One. Two. Three: Nie Mingjue”
“I gave you my core. What do you mean Nie Mingjue?!”
“GAVE ME YOUR WHAT?!”
"Well it's not like you still have it!"
there’s more shouting (with both of them thinking their grievance is more important), and WWX explains and JC rages and lets slip that “what’s the point of distracting the guards if you just throw it away?!” “...what guards? Jiang Cheng you better not mean what I think you mean!” “Or fucking what?!” Eventually, both of them crying, they hug it out. WWX offers to let JC disown him and JC is like “that’s what got us into this mess to begin with. You’re my brother. You’re stuck with me.” And is honestly surprised when WWX is ecstatic.
The next morning Yanli is like “are you okay? There was shouting?”
But they’re like “we’re cool”
Next time: Cloud Recesses and the one braincell trio plan a war

My favorite thing about the children’s hospital/color theory jokes is that they have the same energy as mistyping something in the group chat— and no one on this site will let them forget it

okay, but now I don’t know what I want more: 
Din running away from a battle, carrying Grogu under one arm and Luke over his shoulder while he deflects incoming fire with his lightsaber, or...
Luke running, carrying Din over his shoulder, shooting at their enemy, Grogu laughing as he’s bouncing along, carried by the Force.

Witch, Please!  Fictober 2019  (30/30)
A multi-fandom Fictober prompt compilation.  Your wish is my command, but be careful what you ask for.  You just might get it.
Prompt:  “All Hallows Eve” from Writetober 2019 Prompt List
Fandom:  Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
Relationship/Pairing:  Todoroki Shouto/Yaoyorozu Momo
Genre:  Trick or Treating
Rating:  Teen And Up Audiences
Word Count:  804 words
Read on AO3
“Trick or Treat!”
Halloween doesn’t make sense to Shouto; however, it isn’t the idea of pretending to be someone else that he can’t comprehend.  Though he isn’t as exuberant as Midoria, Shouto idolized All Might. In fact, he still does. It’s natural for kids to have such dreams.
Shouto can picture himself as a child, turning the corners of a happy home in loose socks and a towel tied his neck like a cape.  His mother would have laughed, and his father would have smirked, peering thoughtfully over the top of his morning paper. Of course, this false memory is nothing more than a poor imitation of normality, strung together from odd ends of pop culture and sitcom reruns.
But it’s a nice thought nonetheless.
No, it isn’t the costumes and pretend play that baffles Shouto.  It isn’t even the flash mobs, zombie runs or themed pub crawls. If U.A. had not kept him so busy, he might have joined in.
It’s the child, a little boy of maybe five or six, who stands in front of him dressed in a navy blue jumpsuit with burgundy wrist guards that causes him unease.  Brown eyes bright with awe, he rocks back and forth, teeming with excitement in his snow-white boots. The child’s movements strain the gray neckpiece connecting the high collar of his costume, and lower down, a brown utility belt jingles with every subtle movement.
Impressed, Shouto scans the child’s heart-shaped face, noting the wig as well as the makeup applied over his left eye to mimic Shouto’s infamous scar. It’s hard to fault the child or his proud mother for their fastidious attention to detail.  Yet, Shouto cannot help but wonder if they’d feel the same if they knew the story behind his mark.
He keeps his silence and forces a small smile, dropping a piece of candy into the kid’s plastic pumpkin along with a pre-autographed card.  Both treats hit the bottom of the container with a hollow thump. It’s only his twentieth visitor, but Shouto has already grown tired of tricks, treats and the children who’ve swarmed the decorated auditorium.
In true U.A. style, the event is ridiculously “Plus Ultra,” from Tokoyami’s Haunted House to the three-legged race officiated by Iida.  Even Bakugo has a part to play, though he has no lines. Ground Zero merely stands by Midnight’s side as she welcomes the crowds, and perhaps it is progress enough that he isn’t yelling obscenities over the sound of Earphone Jack’s festive music.
Shouto’s directive is to be more personable, and to this end, he is paired with Creati, handing out candy on a mock front porch.  So disarming is she that sometimes Shouto forgets that the Yaoyorozu family is old, old money. So kind, that from time to time, villains underestimate her S-class intelligence.
He’s realized recently that she takes advantage of their ignorance.  But not tonight.
Tonight, her smile is as open and unguarded as ever.  Bright eyes blaze in midnight shades of gray offset by the crimson cape of her hero’s costume and the gold belt glinting beneath it.  Flashes of skin capture Shouto’s unbidden attention, but moreover, he finds himself enthralled by the way she connects with both the students and parents.  They might put Shouto on a pedestal as a potential successor to All Might, but the public feels like they know Momo Yaoyorozu.
And sometimes Shouto is jealous.  Of what, he isn’t sure.
“Has the hero Shouto come to help me eat all this candy?” she asks the small boy.
Delight spreads across the child’s face when he realizes she’s talking to him and not the semi-pro handing out candy alongside her.  He happily thrusts his hand inside the plastic jack-o’-lantern and offers Momo an orange KitKat, which she politely declines. Instead, she produces a box of pocky and offers mini-Shouto a slender stick.  They laugh and share their sweets. Momo’s tongue darts out to greet the rich chocolate, and Shouto finds himself watching and wondering.
In the space of a second, the young man’s mind flits back to his earlier reverie.  But now, he is no longer the child; Shouto is the father, sipping a cup of tea, legs tucked under the kotatsu.  A little girl with split black and white hair sprints outdoors. She catches snowflakes in her gloved hands and spins as the flurries continue to fall.  Momo is seated next to him, watching their daughter.
It’s pleasant and disarming -- the precise qualities Momo exudes despite the danger lurking just out of sight and mind. He shakes the pesky thought off and continues to attend to the never-ending line of lookalikes. If it is jealousy Shouto feels, he hopes it will not show.  Not for the first time, he wonders if these wishful daydreams are truly tricks or treats.
A/N:  And that's a wrap, folks! Here's some light Todomomo to round out my Fictober 2019 challenge. Perhaps this is a couple of days late, but I'm calling this project a win. 30/31 is pretty good! A million thanks to everyone who followed this collection and encouraged me along the long, long road. As always, your kudos, bookmarks, subscriptions, comments, likes and reblogs give me life. Also, don't be a stranger and check out my tumblr. Send me questions, comments or whatever else may be on your mind.

all the 40 oc questions
1. If your oc was to host a TV show, what would it be about? Would your oc be good at it? What sorts of guests would appear?
A show about cryptids, myths & legends! though, the topics covered would be subtly weaved to elicit fear in the viewers.
2. Can your oc play any instruments? Have they ever wanted to learn how to play any? Why?
He learned how to play violin & cello over time, but can also take on a form that knows how to (or can mimic the skills needed) play an instrument if it pertains to that person’s fears/nightmares.
3. If you were to choose another name for your oc, what do you think it would be? Did you choose it for how it sounds or for its meaning?
I don’t think I could choose another name for Mephiles! (i’m also terrible with making up or finding names that suit a specific type of character once i’ve settled on a name hjgdshfgsd)
4. How does your oc fare in the dark? Are they scared? Do they trip over things really easily or navigate like they have night vision? (Or do they have night vision?)
Mephiles is at home in the dark. He can see perfectly in it, and know exactly what lurks in it.
5. How well would your oc fare as a teacher? What subject would they be best at teaching? What about the worst?
Terribly. He’d just intentionally frighten the students.
6. What was your oc’s relationship with their parents like? If they didn’t have any parents/didn’t know them, who in their life was the closest to a parent to them?
Didn’t have any parents, and never had a parent figure, either. He was alone for a long time.
7. Does your oc have any allergies, intolerances, or other sensitivities? How dangerous is it? Does this affect their daily life in any way?
High-pitched noises can make him uncomfortable, but that’s about it.
8. Does your oc prefer being in a crowd or being completely alone? How many people can be around them before they get uncomfortable?
Both work fine, but Mephiles does prefer smaller crowds in a social setting. Otherwise, he won’t complain. More people to feed from.
9. How easily does your oc make friends? Do they have difficulty talking to new people? Why?
He makes friends more easily with people aware of his true nature that don’t immediately scoff and/or run away, or non-humans. But he’s still fairly half-decent at making friends regardless!
10. How open is your oc to trying new things? Are they the adventurous sort, or would they rather stay in their comfort zone? Why?
He’s always open to try new things. There’s a lot about the world that he’s yet to experience, and he loves to get to know his prey better, after all.
11. What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to your oc?  Do they still feel ashamed for it? Were there any witnesses?
He doesn’t really get into embarrassing situations? Maybe being caught one night as he stood by someone’s bed as he gave them nightmares, relishing in their fear, but he has his ways of dealing with intruders…
12. Does your oc have any best friends? Who was/is their closest friend? What about their worst enemy?
Alexander Russell happens to be a close friend of Mephiles’. It was Alexander who suggested to Mephiles to go out and actually experience humanity and Earth instead of just seeing it all as prey. He’s also in contact with Callisto and Morgaine.
13. How dangerous is your oc? Are they completely innocent, or someone to be feared? Do others know?
He’s the literal Boogeyman. He’s far from innocent, and feeds on fear. Some know of who he is, but most know his moniker; not his name or face.
14. What is your oc’s vision like? Do they require glasses, are they completely blind, or do they have 20/20 vision? Does this have an effect on their life?
His vision is perfect, though he can take on forms that could require glasses if it relates to a person’s fears.
15. What is your oc’s favourite time of day? Why is this? Do they have a daily practice during this time?
Night-time. Not just due to it being the time when the majority of humans sleep, but it’s also more aesthetically pleasing and peaceful to him.
16. How often does your oc lie? Why is that? What was the biggest lie they’ve ever told?
Extremely rarely. He doesn’t feel the need to lie often - most people barely believe him when he tells them exactly what he is. 
17. How well can your oc keep secrets? Is there a difference between how they handle their own vs someone else’s? To what lengths would they go to keep something hidden?
Relatively well regarding his own secrets, amazingly well with other people’s secrets.
18. How does your oc fare in an emergency situation? Do they panic, do they freeze, do they take charge?
He takes charge, if he can.
19. If your oc were to be arrested for something, what would it be for? For being too kind, for a legitimate crime?
Murder, most likely. Sometimes he gets a little too excited when he’s hungry, and can kill someone. Most of the time it looks like natural causes (sudden heart attack, for example), but being caught would definitely make it seem like he caused it.
20. What is your oc’s personal hygiene like? Is it important to them? What is their daily routine for this like?
He looks eerily spotless. He doesn’t do much to look that way, just a simple shower or bath.
21. Are there any public events your oc would love to go to? Concerts, plays, movies, parties, etc? What about ones that they would hate? Why?
Halloween gatherings & parties. No guesses as to why.
22. How quiet or loud is your oc? Are they easily capable of sneaking around without being heard, or do they feel it’s impossible to stop talking?
Mephiles can be deathly silent if he needs or wants to be, and it’s oh-so-easy for him to sneak around without being heard or seen.
23. How difficult is it for your oc to get to sleep? Do they fall asleep the moment they hit the pillow, or do they have insomnia? Any reason why?
He doesn’t need sleep, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t slept. It doesn’t take him long, he’s often fairly relaxed.
24. How dramatic is your oc? Do they make a big deal over every little thing, or do they fail to react to even the most crazy of events?
Mephiles responds appropriately to most things, though can act dramatically if it adds flavour to whatever he’s saying.
25. How does your oc handle being sick? Do they pretend not to be? Do they complain a lot? How susceptible to getting sick are they?
It’s seemingly impossible for Mephiles to get sick.
26. How stylistically fancy is your oc? Or would they rather go for comfort and plainness instead?
His wardrobe is varied, but he does have many tailored suits from different eras.
27. What’s your oc’s preferred mode of transportation? Walking, vehicle, (or in a sci-fi/magic setting) teleportation?
Walking & teleportation. Beware him when he starts running, however.
28. Is your oc always late, always early, or always right on time? Is there any reason for this?
Either early or on time. He just likes to be at places when he should be.
29. How empathetic is your oc? Or are they closer to being a sociopath? Any reason why?
Variable depending on hunger levels.
30. How much does your oc swear? Or do they keep completely clean? Why is this? Is there any situation where they would be the opposite?
He often uses “bloody” “bugger” and “arse” frequently to flavour his sentences, but harsher words are only ever used in a heated moment to emphasize a point.
31. What is your oc’s sense of humour like? What do they find funny? Do they try to be funny? Are they actually?
Mephiles is actually extremely easily amused, and it doesn’t take much to make him laugh. His own jokes, however, are mostly just comedic timing.
32. Is your oc a pacifist, or someone who picks fights? Why? In what situations would they be the opposite?
Mostly pacifistic, he just doesn’t see the need to pick fights.
33. How does your oc’s own perception of themselves compare to how other people see them? Is your oc aware that other people see them differently (if it’s different)?
He knows exactly how people see him, and he revels in it, even if he doesn’t quite like giving himself an ego boost. He just sees himself as an entity with a hunger that needs to be satisfied.
34. How easily does your oc throw something away? As soon as something is through with its usefulness, or are they more like a hoarder? Is there a reason?
Mephiles doesn’t own too much, and doesn’t throw away anything that he does have.
35. Is your oc a workaholic, or do they find it hard to be busy at all? Do they find it easy to relax, or must they have something to do at all times? Why?
He’s never not busy, but that’s because most of his time is spent entertaining himself or doing what he needs to.
36. What is your oc’s ideal night out like? Or would they rather spend it at home?
Hunting for fear. Or just getting a sadistic kick by making a large crowd of people run for their lives.
37. How picky is your oc? Will they not accept something because of the smallest details being off, or do they not care in the slightest? Why?
When it comes to his own home, he’s extremely picky. Otherwise, he respects other people’s particularities.
38. How energetic is your oc? Do they have trouble sitting still or do they feel low on juice all the time? Any reason why?
In the middle, but he can be very excitable.
39. Is it difficult for your oc to focus, or do they have no trouble being in the moment? Do they daydream or zone out?
He’s extremely focused, but he likes to daydream.
40. How humble is your oc? Or are they closer to royal in their self-perception? Why? Is this obvious to others?
Humble-ish, in that (as said above) he relishes in being known as the boogeyman, but he acknowledges that he’s just a living thing like everyone else.

October 2017 Viewing List
Hi all! Sorry no reviews this month, but a very large paper I did on Arrival for class has been kicking my ass most of the month. As such, I’ve probably seen Arrival about four times this month, but mostly in bits and pieces. Hopefully a real review soon, or even more capsule things, but there is a Smackdown post on the way (where yours truly was quoted again!) and plenty of fantastic-looking releases coming out this November. Oh! And I got a job at a movie theater! In the kitchens, but still. Plenty of time to daydream about actressing. Now on to the main event!
A Ghost Story (17, B): Some peaks and valleys, but as a temporal, sonic mood piece, I think it works splendidly, though others love it more. - 10/2/17
The Little Hours (17, C-): Balances modern & period flourishes well. But craziness never feels that crazy. Loses steam as it goes, if anything. - 10/2/17
Savage Grace (08, B+): Mannered tale of moneyed perversion only more fraught by keeping us so very off kilter. Incestuous. Cannibalistic. - 10/2/17
No Country for Old Men (07, B): I like many scenes more than the whole, but still packs a punch. Third time least charming. Indelible sound. 10/3/17
Spider-Man: Homecoming (17, B): I couldn't believe it was so fun. And funny! Holland has charm for days. Standalones are really improving. - 10/4/17
Arrival (16, B): No tweet. Watch it. - 10/5/17
Girls Trip (17, B): More going on for its characters than a good time, but also the best time you could have. Thank you, ladies. Thank you. - 10/6/17
Battle Royale (01, B+): Hyperbolic take on insane premise frightening and funny. Keeps hold of its targets without mocking the students. - 10/6/17
Gaslight (44, B): Frequently commanding, missteps & wasted potential sitting with what's great. Odd start, uneven middle, strong end. - 10/7/17
The Ornithologist (17, A-): Thank God it's on Netflix. I need more than one trip to wrangle its everything. Impossible to look away from. - 10/9/17
Mars Attacks! (96, B): Sort of defines eccentric, often pretty fun. Wish it didn't belittle most of the characters it killed. Ack ack. - 10/12/17
Props to the Lisa Marie Smith sequence, Annette Bening, glittery capes & thongs, Brown & Grier, their kids, "Guess it wasn't the doves"
Blade Runner 2049 (17, B): Aesthetically dazzling on all fronts. Actors rarely imaginative. Not sure how worthwhile the story is. - 10/14/17
The more I think about it, the more 2049 seems like squandered potential by mostly ignoring replicant deviancy and mechanical autonomy.
Also why Ana de Armas feels like the only worthwhile performance. She blurs those lines, and by actually emoting - emphatically! - onscreen
Dragon Seed (44, C-): Ghastly casting, lamely executed. Barely hums along on own terms. I regret paying for it. I regret, well. Everything. - 10/16/17
(Talking to someone about Katharine Hepburn in Dragon Seed) I could not believe how bad the early going was. She barely looked anyone in the eye! I'm just grateful it wasn't worse.
Get Out (17, A-): How come Jordan Peele's amazing direction is barely getting play? Why isn't this a lock for Picture? How is it so good? - 10/17/17
The Death of Louis XIV (17, C+): Last third clicked, for some reason. Narcotic. But if this lets you craft each frame as tapestry, so be it. - 10/17/17
The lighting of faces and wigs and sets and fabrics, the blocking of actors, the texture of everything. So painstakingly styled to the art of its era.
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (01, C-): No tweet. Not impressed. - 10/18/17
Faces Places (17, B): Starts out awkward, but grows real flair, deepening relationships between Varda, JR, and their subjects. - 10/19/17
The Road Movie (17, A-): First third blends absurdism, comedy, horror, spectacle so adroitly. Less funny as it goes, but never loses impact. - 10/19/17
Human Flow (17, B-): I wish I liked it more, but this feels weirdly distant, and vague around politics & contexts damning the refugees. - 10/20/17
Lightning Over Braddock: A Rust Bowl Fantasy (89, A-): Protests of dying town, dreams of con & director surprisingly well-suited together. - 10/21/17
Spettacolo (17, C+): Study of autodramatic Italian village fine by its present, & by unclear future. Oddly skimpy on long, flavored history - 10/21/17
Quest (17, B): Olshefski indulgent with close-ups and hand shots, but still emerges with a strong, often touching portrait. Great with PJ. - 10/21/17
Since You Went Away (44, B): Too long, but it got me good. Corny, but still plenty moving, with a surprisingly sad core. Colbert a gem. - 10/21/17
Mrs. Parkington (44, C-): Garson's charm can't carry through two shitty timelines, embarrassing dialogue, vile misogyny. Evaporates on sight. - 10/22/17
Cameraperson (16, B+): No tweet. See it! - 10/23/17
None but the Lonely Heart (44, B): Amazing that something where seams show so frequently, from all central parties, resonates so powerfully. - 10/24/17
So, Barrymore's gonna win the Smackdown right? I mean, Jones and McMahon are good, Moorehead's a hoot. But that last scene! My goodness.
Stagecoach (39, A): Even piecemealed for class, it’s power and velocity isn’t diluted in the slightest - 10/26/17
To Sleep With Anger (90, B+): Quieter and more quotidian than I expected, but still a potent and compelling experience. Actors a huge plus. - 10/26/17
Laura (44, A+): Perfect balance of baroque embellishments, unknowable characters, ornate style. A masterpiece, gloriously realized. - 10/28/17
Days of Glory (44, A-): Surprisingly full probing of guerrilla ethics, tactics, politics. Better made, directed, and acted than I expected. - 10/30/17
A lot of films look great next to Dragon Seed but this just overwhelms that similar kind of WWII story in so many ways.
The cast is great, especially the leads, who sell their romantic and political maturation beautifully. Stellar child perf from Dena Penn too
The Miracle of Morgan's Creek (44, A-): Amazing that it exists at all, let alone in that year, with that tone. Cast, Sturges on fire. - 10/31/17
Marjorie Prime (17, B-): Multiply centered structure seems to play with ideas, scenarios without committing. Strong finish. Smith! - 10/31/17
Not as mighty a haul this month, but hopefully November will be a little more promising. Happy Thanksgiving all, and Happy (belated) Halloween from me and my aggressively red/pink hair!

Read Up on Your October 2019 Wellness Horoscopes
Hear ye, hear ye: Your October 2019 wellness horoscopes are in!
I’ll be sincere—it seems like this month could current actual challenges for many of us, culminating with 2019’s remaining Mercury in retrograde. This all could sound scary—and becoming for Halloween, no much less—however don’t run for the hills simply but. Trust that preemptive mindfulness and a little bit of astrohacking will hold you in combating form. So seize a pumpkin spice latte, learn your ‘scope (rising, too!), and study from these astrologically guided insights and wellness tricks to conquer Libra season with gusto.
October 2019 Wellness Horoscopes
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 22)
Happy Libra season! Of course, eat your cake, however then get all the way down to enterprise. It’s time to don your metaphorical armor as Mars—the planet of rogue power, motion, and aggression—is in your signal by mid-November. Keep your guard as much as cost towards your objectives unencumbered. Since Librans can get agitated or disheartened when one thing or somebody impedes their paths, hold your cool by taking breaks to correctly recalibrate. Your thoughts can be in overdrive strategizing advantageous outcomes in head-scratching skilled and/or interpersonal situations. You can profit from balance-focused actions to concurrently soothe your physique and buzzing thoughts. Moving meditations reminiscent of yoga and tai chi may also help deliver concord to what may in any other case be a turbulent month.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23-NOVEMBER 21)
As October begins, take care to clear your house (thoughts, residence) in order to attain cognitive cleanliness and readability. Dust off the cobwebs to make room for thoughts enlargement; take into account choosing up a brand new wellness guide for optimistic inspo. Next, Mercury—the planet of communication and knowledge—is in your signal from October three (Mean Girls Day!) for 2 months, together with a notoriously chaotic retrograde interval starting on Halloween. Spooky! With this side in thoughts, your activity can be to strike a fragile stability between your sharp-AF Scorpion intuition and Mercury’s emphasis on processing info IRL. However, on the finish of the day, know that you have already got all the pieces you want inside you to thrive.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21)
Jupiter—your natal ruling planet that oversees elevated realms like philosophy and advantage—stays in your signal for an additional two months, to not return for an additional decade. Maximize this placement by encouraging transcendental progress to seek out larger that means. Then floor again down with the mortals on Mother Earth, the place you’ll must dig beneath the floor to keep away from falling prey to folks’s sharp phrases and erratic behaviors. Recognize that base expressions are sometimes borne out of frustration or unhappiness, so make like John Mayer and bypass the BS to higher perceive and present up for individuals who may want assist. Studies present that meditation can foster empathy, so discover your zen so you'll be able to assist others do the identical.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19)
Capricorns are famend for his or her industriousness savvy—however in October, it’s time to step issues up a notch. However, it doesn’t imply that it's best to go from zero to 100 actual fast; doing so will solely threat burnout. Instead, attempt for sustainable high quality and undertake productive, wholesome habits (making lists, consuming your greens, sleeping higher) to remain targeted. Another need-to-hear-it tip: Kick any self-doubt or emotions of inadequacy to the curb. After all, Rome wasn’t inbuilt a day and neither is the trail to the CEO’s chair. To greatest set your self up for fulfillment, settle for the place you might be within the current and tempo towards your objectives slowly however certainly.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18)
With Mars in Libra, a fellow air signal, October is a first-rate time for Aquarian self-study and mental stimulation. You don’t need to hold your nostril in a guide to take action, both. (Though talking as a bookworm myself, there are worse habits you can undertake.) Alternatives embrace bingeing on TED talks, participating in wholesome debates, and studying about native cultures in the event you’re touring. While you’re busy taking in new info, concurrently shed previous ideas and patterns which may stifle this era of progress. Aquarians are glorious chameleons, so you should not have any hassle with this productive revamp. A serious evolution is on the horizon, and also you’ll be prepared for it by taking a Marie Kondo strategy to issues of the thoughts.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 19-MARCH 20)
Throughout October, it seems such as you’ll be extra socially energetic than ordinary. Sorry, daydreaming fishies! Partnerships can be on the fore, so invoke the stability of Libra season into your collaborations. Consider all prices versus advantages, efforts versus outcomes, and high quality versus amount. This scrutiny extends to work, friendships, and love pursuits alike. Ensure that the fundamental tenets of wholesome relationships are current; you want and deserve respect and the correct dynamics for progress. (Read: Make like a young person in 2014 and say “bye, Felicia” to anybody or something inhibiting enlargement.) Add a wholesome dose of resilience to your substantial compassion to keep away from characteristically Piscean self-sacrifice and countless loops of emotionally charged rumination. This month’s mantra: Be brave and declare your price.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
On October three, Mercury kicks off a two-monthlong stint in your eighth home of thriller and darkness. Safeguard your self in opposition to manifestations of the latter with celestial types of self-care, like consulting a Moon Deck or studying extra about astrology and your chart. (Is this technique merely a ruse to recruit extra astrohackers into my orbit? Just like Gossip Girl, I’ll by no means inform.) If you’re into extra conventional types of self-exploration, checking in with a trusted therapist would even be advantageous. Next, October brings urgent points concerning intimacy and commitments to the fore. Business as ordinary will now not reduce it. October 13’s full moon in your signal will illuminate your wants and impress you to make obligatory changes. Aries is nothing if not pioneering, so set your phrases and requirements with confidence.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
There’s a heavy focus in your profession all through the month. You’re a goal-getting extraordinaire, so work achievements are fairly normal. But since easing the brakes will be tough for decided bulls, bouts of respite are important. Power naps as brief as 10 minutes lengthy can enhance cognitive operate and application. So in the event you can, make noon ZZZ’s—particularly across the October 13 full moon—a software for sustainable success. Next, you'll be able to keep away from adrenal fatigue by supplementing with stress-busting, hormone-balancing adaptogens. You can even take into account revising your day by day routine to optimize productiveness. In different issues, Venus is in your home of affection till November, placing you deep within the feels. When Venus opposes Uranus from October 12 to 14, nevertheless, you may hit a probably thrilling however disruptive emotional peak. I don’t wish to be down on love, however I counsel invoking earthly Taurean practicality to maintain your wits about you.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Remember once I prompt you KonMari your dwelling quarters in September’s wellness ‘scopes? Now’s the time to do the identical along with your habits, relationships, funds, commitments. Restructure unproductive patterns or conditions that will have been zapping your power reserves as of late. It could also be so simple as constantly training self-care or as monumental as quitting your job to emancipate your self from a poisonous work surroundings. Furthermore, October focuses on manifesting your desires and creativity. For my fellow ethereal twins (I’m Gemini rising and moon), it’s not sufficient to muse—you must act. Fear, discomfort, and vulnerability are par for the course, however know that they point out you’re one step nearer to reaching your fullest potential. On the intense aspect, you’re as a consequence of awaken your psyche and/or spirit come December. Get your geese so as by then so that you’re primed to reap these advantages with ease.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
Over the previous six months, you might need been cleaning your self from painful recollections and emotions.

(Word to the sensible: As at all times, all indicators ought to make any bodily modifications or new purchases earlier than Mercury retrogrades on October 31. And in the event you’re further cautious, accomplish that earlier than retroshade—yep, that’s a factor—by October 18.) Set up new, constructive foundations for well-being throughout this time as nicely to repel stale, burdensome power.

LEO (JULY 23-AUGUST 22)
Many folks can’t assist however be drawn to your dynamic presence. However, some may be cautious of—and even threatened by—that burning Leo hearth.

October nineteenth,
ace trappola; prompt 22: “They say 3am is the witching hour, wanna test that out?"
you were peacefully sleeping for once. it was a little hard for you to get used to ramshackle dorm as it was practically a haunted house with it being so old, run down, and having ghosts, especially the ghosts.
your sleep was undisturbed for most of the night until 3am struck.
the moment it became 3am, ace who was watching some 3am videos went over to your dorm to bother you by throwing rocks at your window until you woke up.
by the twelfth time you heard a pebble hit your window, you opened it annoyed at the first year who bothered your sleep.
“ace! it’s 3 in the fucking morning!” you projected.
“i know!”
“then why are you bothering my beauty sleep?”
“well, y’know, they say 3am is the witching hour. wanna test that out?”
you pause for a moment, thinking about what you should say. eventually, you chose sleep.
“no.”
and with that you closed your window on him leaving him outside in the cold as you went back to sleep.
only for ace to somehow break in.
“ace!? no!”
“awww come on, i’ve come all this way so why not let me sleep over.”
“fine.. then you can go sleep on the couch or something.”
you sleepily say too tired to care anymore.
“thanks!”

can i request azul ashengrotto with prompt 14?
a late night scare
Tumblr media
a/n -w- i’m like rlly tired rn dishshsj anyways ty for requesting and srry for taking so long to write this.
-268 words-
October seventeenth,
azul ashengrotto; prompt 14: “Don’t scare me like that!”
you didn’t exactly think this through but it’s alright. nothing could be worse than dealing with an overblot, so you say as you stand behind a pillar.
you’ve already looked around the mostro lounge, there shouldn’t be anyone here, probably except for azul. After halloween week ended just earlier everyone was exhausted, azul and yourself included.
once his shift ended, he retreated back to the vip room going back to burying himself in the paperwork concerning the mostro lounge, contracts, schoolwork, etc.
knowing he would do that you decided to sneak into the vip room, now running and sneaking around the mostro lounge to the vip room.
“_____? my, my. it is quite late. so may i ask what exactly you are doing here?”
you whip your head around now seeing the tall eel staring down around.
“i- uh-“ you stutter, before sighing and giving up, “i just wanted to give azul a little scare. you won’t stop me will you?”
“i will not.”
jade says simply before walking off. he didn’t actually walk off; he just stayed hidden from you and azul curious as to how you will scare the dormleader.
you begin to sneak into the vip room and slowly but surely you creep up behind the oblivious azul. you grab his shoulders while yelling, “boo!” right in his ear.
azul gasped and flinched from that. he looks back at you, annoyed and a little sleep deprived as he whisper-screams, “don’t scare me like that!”
“sorry! it was too tempting”
azul just groaned and rubbed his nose.
“how did you even get in here?”
“magic?”
“_____!”

hellooo not sure if this is allowed but for your Halloween event may I request my two favorites:
genya shinazugawa with prompt 28: "That's your favorite candy? you have shit taste." and tanjiro kamado with prompt 10: "Oh, I see. Is someone a little scared?"
hope you're having a fantastic day!
not like yours is any better
Tumblr media
a/n hii don’t worry, this is allowed. i hope you’re have a fantastic day too! also i wrote this in a pre-puberty/before final selection sort of au so he’s grouchy here lolll.
-264 words-
October fourteenth,
genya shinazugawa; prompt 28: “that’s your favorite candy? you have shit taste.”
inviting genya to go trick-or-treating with you was a mistake. from the very beginning, he was grouchy. from what? you didn’t know. you shrugged it off, it was only natural, he is in his rebellious phase after all.
however, genya, the short-tempered boy was just pissed off at you. why? because you were making him carry your bag of candy. at first, the young soon-to-be demon slayer thought he could handle it. that was at first, now, with two bags filled to brim with candy, he struggles. what makes it worse is that your picky ass, was only choosing your favorite candy making your bag full of it, just one brand of candy.
“y/n” he grunts out.
“hm?”
“take your damn bag” he shoves the bag of candy into your arms.
“but you said you would take it” you playfully complain to him, pissing him off more.
“i never said that, you just shoved it in my arms”
you fake gasp as you lie, messing with him further, “i would never!”
“you did! an hour ago”
“nuh-uh” you continue to mess with him.
sighing, he gives up as you shove your bag of candy into his arms once again. you take out two pieces of candy from your bag, one for you and one for him.
“want one?” you ask him.
he looks up at you then down at the two pieces of candy in your hand.
“wait- that’s your favorite candy? you have shit taste.”
playfully punching him in the arm, you exclaim, “oh shut up! not like yours is any better!”

-273 words-
October tenth,
jamil viper; prompt 25: “What happened? Let me help you!” / “Relax, the blood is fake.”
as the ramshackle prefect managing only one other student in your dorm, you weren’t expected to participate in the festivities; in fact you were even forgotten about by headmaster crowely.
so you decided to help out the other dorms. especially when the issues about the magicam people came up.
which is how you’re currently in this situation, wearing pure white clothing stained with fake blood stains, a costume vil is letting you borrow. While he does your makeup, turning you into a bloody “ghost.”
with one of your friends helping you in the background, you floated and seemed transparent, truly making you look seem like a ghost.
so you floated around the school, scaring off the people who disrespected the property.
Only vil and your other friend was aware of you helping you, so you decided to scare your good friend, jamil.
so coming up from behind him, you jumpscared him.
“boo!”
jamil, tired from the visitors piling up trash at the school store, flinched from your jumpscare and looked back at you immediately noticing the blood. his tired mind thought the blood was real and thought you were hurt.
“are you okay? what happened? do you need help?” he questioned, genuinely concerned for your well being.
“hm? i’m okay. it’s just makeup, see?”
you wipe your thumb across your cheek, smearing the fake blood.
“oh, as long as you’re okay then”
“y’know jamil, you seem really tired; do you want help with the school store?”
“if you don’t mind”
you ended up giving him a break, taking over his duties at the school store and helping picking up the trash overloading there.
afterwards getting chewed out by vil for ruining the makeup he spent quite a bit of time on.
(you can still request ^^)

(anon who requested riddle for the event: i meant prompt 6. the trick-or-treating one. sorry.)
to skip and go trick-or-treating
Tumblr media
a/n i like how in-character this would be for him especially since his mother was strict with him growing up so now let’s hope he’s in character (´・ω・`) …also i made this a little long oops
-472 words-
October second,
riddle rosehearts; prompt 06: “what do you mean you’ve never gone trick-or-treating before?!”
as someone from another world, you didn’t think that many of your holidays and traditions would be celebrated here, referring to halloween and many others. but what surprised you more was that there were actually people who did not go trick-or-treating when they were younger.
“what do you mean you’ve never gone trick-or-treating before?!” you exclaim loudly in shock not expecting this revelation.
“well, my mother had always told me that it was a worthless tradition and that candy and sweets in general are not good for my health-”
you interrupt him, “still! to never trick or treat? not even once?”
you never expected this but this was riddle, a hard worker who was strict on both himself and others. so it wasn’t too far-fetched of a story although if it was ace, you would’ve called bullshit on him.
“not even once” riddle repeats, shaking his head. 
you ponder for a moment in thought before speaking up again, “then let’s go trick-or-treating”
“we’re in college, y/n, furthermore, we, more specifically heartslabyul still have to prepare the botanical garden for halloween week.” (i know it’s more of a high school kind of setting considering their ages but it’s called night raven college so just pretend)
“so?”
“‘so?’ we still have our responsibilities! as the housewarden of heartslabyul, i cannot just leave my upper and underclassmen by themselves!” riddle retorts back quite passionately despite knowing deep down he wants to try trick-or-treating, just once, despite knowing he’s much too old for it. 
“hmm” you pause in thought once again, “then i’ll help you prepare; I did promise ace and deuce i’d help them… but… only if you skip the last day with me”
you reason with riddle wanting to show him what he missed out in his childhood.
“...thank you for your assistance, however, i’m afraid i cannot do that”
>>>
after a very long time of persuading the housewarden, riddle agrees; reluctantly but is he really being reluctant? He had always wanted to try trick-or-treating and was always jealous of the neighborhood kids who he saw happily go from house to house.
so when halloween comes around, riddle leaves his post early feeling a little guilty, to go find you.
“riddle! hey!” you wave to him feeling excited, after all, it’s been years since you last trick-or-treated with your friends.   
“hello” riddle greets you, a bit ashamed for skipping even though he did tell everyone at heartslabyul that he would take off early for “personal reasons.”
after meeting up with riddle the two of you took off going on a bus to one the nearby neighborhoods.
>>>
you hadn’t anticipated how awkward it would be; two college students running around from house to house, clearly too old to be trick-or-treating. but in the end it was the most fun you two had in years.

-182 words- 
october first,
aquamarine hoshino; prompt 03: “you’re shivering. do you want my jacket?”
you hum as you wait for aqua, sitting on a park bench, swinging your legs back and forth, the cold now getting to you. you shiver as you feel the cool autumn breeze hit your skin now wishing you brought your sweater as you continue to softly hum to yourself. 
feeling a small tap on your shoulder, you jump.
“hey, i’m here” aqua waves to you smirking slightly at your startled reaction.
“aqua! you surprised me” 
you stand up going to stand by his side only to shiver feeling the breeze once again.
“you’re shivering,” he mutters rather abruptly.
“hm? what was that?”
he sighs softly, “it’s nothing” he thinks to himself for a moment before asking, “do you want my jacket?”
“huh?” you think you didn’t hear him right so you ask, “can you say it again?”
“you know what i said — here” he takes off his jacket wrapping it around you.
you chuckle softly, “was it that obvious?”
he scoffs, “obviously, now come on”
“mhm” with that the two of you walk off now going on your long awaited date.

hello there! id like to request prompt 8 from the halloween event prompt list with ace trappola! ty!
oops
Tumblr media
a/n hdhshs i can never think of a good title TwT
-183 words-
October fourth,
ace trappola; prompt 08: “Well…you grabbed my hand first.”
ace had somehow coerced you into joining him in exploring a haunted house.
as the two of you entered the vast and terrifying haunted house, you were immediately jumpscared by accidentally walking into a fake cobweb. as you let out a small yelp, ace laughed in your face.
“we barely walked in and you’re already scared! you’re such a scaredy cat!” ace teased as he continued to laugh at you.
you try defending yourself, “i couldn’t help it! it was just right there!”
then as ace continued to laugh at you, a “zombie” came up behind him, and being the good friend you are, you didn’t say anything.
“boo!”
ace let out a silent scream and immediately grabbed onto you holding your hand, as you snickered at him.
“you should’ve told me!”
“you should’ve told me about that cobweb~”
“still!” ace then realized he was holding onto your hand, his face now bright red “o-oh”
“hm? what?” then you noticed, now blushing as well, “ah- w-well… you grabbed my hand first!”
“i- i didn’t mean to! i got jumpscared!”
“you still did tho~”
(you can still request! ^^)

Hanako but with prompt 27: "Who you gonna call?" / "Ghostbusters?" ?????? (I love hanako a lot and think this would be really fitting for him if that makes sense??).
another day, another apparition to deal with
Tumblr media
a/n just a little off since yashiro is mentioned much, much more (makes it obvious who’s my favorite jshk character is) but it’s finee anyways hope you enjoy this even tho it’s a month late
-281 words-
October eighteenth,
amane yugi; prompt 27: “Who you gonna call?” / “Ghostbusters?”
since halloween was right around the corner, it meant more apparitions, more apparitions meant more work for the four of you. you and yashiro especially dreaded this season, because it meant being dragged around by hanako-kun everyday to exorcise some ghost that went out of control.
sighing, yashiro put her head on the desk.
“you good?” you inquired the exhausted girl.
“no… i’m too tired to go clean the toilets today” yashiro complains before burying her face in her arms.
“y’know since halloween is soon it’ll be-“
“be helping hanako-kun exorcise apparitions?” she finishes.
“yup”
“even worseee”
you chuckle, “well, just get some sleep now, i’ll show you my notes later”
yashiro’s eyes lit up as you offered that, “yess thank youu _____”
“no problem”
when class ends you gently shake yashiro awake who was peacefully sleeping for the last hour—you have no idea how she didn’t get caught.
“yashiro? wake up.”
you can hear a groan from her before she looks up at you, “we’re going to hanako-kun now?”
“yeah”
stretching her arms and gently slapping her cheeks, she stands up, “okay! ready!”
“wow! that was a quick recovery!”
yashiro simply nods before dragging you away to the girl’s restroom. slamming open the door, you’re greeted by hanako-kun.
“ah! my assistant and my assistant’s assistant.”
“assistant’s assistant?” you repeated, skeptical that is even a thing.
“what? is that not a thing?”
“definitely not!” yashiro cuts in.
“anyways,” hanako starts, “who you gonna call?”
you and yashiro look at him confused until you both eventually realize what he’s referencing.
in unison the three of you respond, “ghostbusters?”
“wait- kou-kun!? when did you get here?” you question, surprised by the new face.
