NSFW Alphabet - Rio.

GIF is not mine, credit to OG creator.

He felt left out, so I made him one too! Everyone’s favorite money launderer is here with allllll his dirty secrets. Enjoy, frands!

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

NSFW Alphabet A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)

Rio lives to take care of you. You hold him down and after sex, he’s just as gentle and compassionate. He will wrap you in his arms and remind you all the reasons that his success is yours too. A warm shower and a cold drink await you after most sessions complete with take out from your favorite restaurant.

B = Body part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Rio loves his lips/smile. He knows a simple smirk can make you melt into a puddle. He isn’t above using it to manipulate you in the best ways. A slow lick of the lips, a smug smile, or a soft kiss can buy him a few hours if he has fallen out of your good graces.

He loves your hips and ass. Your curvy frame fits so perfectly with his slender muscular self. He loves to feel you soft against him in bed as he runs his hands over your curves - leaving your skin electrified under his touch. He loves the dip from your back to the top of your ass, the perfect place for his hands in all situations.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum)

Inside or in your mouth - he finds your willingness to accept him in the most intimate ways erotic.

D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Rio loves to make movies. His favorite angle is when you’re on the bed, back arched, and ass pressed against him and he makes you fuck yourself as he watches himself disappear inside you.

“Keep going, mama. I didn’t say stop.” The erotic sound of skin against skin filled the room as you rolled your hips against him, moans slipping through your mouth. “You’re such a good girl. Look at how you take me.” Your praise kink is on overdrive as you come apart beneath him - another Oscar worthy performance.

E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)

His list isn't long, but he knows what he is doing. Always the gentleman, you come first, second, and third - he will leave your body sore and sleepy with his expert skills.

F = Favorite Position (This goes without saying)

Rio loves you from behind - he loves watching your ass bounce as he pushes into the mattress. He lives for you on top too. When you just can’t wait any longer, and you take control. He lays back willingly, puts his hand behind his head, and watches you sink onto him - the stretch makes you bite your lip and lean forward. He will pull you close - holding your throat with ever so much pressure and thrust into you - leaving you panting and begging.

G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc)

Sarcasm, mild degradation, and dry humor are Rio’s calling cards and they don’t disappear in the bedroom. He will make you drip with his words, and chastise you for being so needy. As you grind against his jean-covered thigh, begging for more, he will reprimand you for making a mess - heat running through your body as he slides his fingers over you, feeling just how wet you really are.

H = Hair (How well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)

Appearances are important, so he leaves nothing to be desired. He’s neat.

I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect…)

Rio spends his days playing a role and with you, the doors open and his real self tumbles out. He presses his forehead to yours and whispers sweet nothings as you greet him from his work day. He is content to watch you play Iron Chef in the kitchen as you talk about your days together. He finds the most comfort in breaking down the walls and letting you - physically and emotionally.

J = Jack/Jill Off (Masturbation headcanon)

Rio may rub one out, because work has kept him away from you. The movies you create make it easy to remember how good you feel.

K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)

Needy, begging - Rio gets off on knowing you need him. It’s borderline codependent shit, but he loves it. When you pout around the house, your shirt tight and in just your panties, huffing and puffing while you wait for him to finish working is one of his favorite things. He knows you’re a brat, and he indulges in your tantrums, edging you until you slide into his lap, palming him through his pants and whisper how much you want him in your ear.

L = Location (Favorite places to do the do)

Rio moves in the shadows, so it only makes sense that he fucks in them too. Late nights at the warehouse have you laid across the table as he fucks you - erotic noises echoing through the empty room or you slide into the backseat of the wagon, sinking onto him as Mick waits dutifully outside as you chase your release.

M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)

Rio lives to provide for you, so being able to fulfill every request - sexual or otherwise - is his motivation. When the bills are paid, you have more than enough money in your account, and you can’t walk from countless orgasms, that’s when he feels most successful. When you came into his life, success suddenly meant something different and taking care of you in every aspect is his reason.

N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Rio is illusive, so threesomes are out of the question. He is invisible, and you’re really the only woman he needs.

O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)

You’re a brat and Rio tames you on your knees as he fucks your throat relentlessly. He gazes at you through half-hooded eyes, watching you gag as you open your mouth wider for him. “Mama, just like that.” His hands thread through your hair, pulling the strands so rough that you moan against him - sending shivers through his body. “See, you can listen, can’t you?”

On the flip side, Rio loves to eat you. He enjoys the feel of your full thighs around his face as you rock back and forth. You were so apprehensive at first, but he reassured you, “Darlin’, if I die underneath you, it will be the happiest moment of my life.” The feeling of power, yet subtle submissiveness in the act of you riding his face is a powerful aphrodisiac.

P = Pace (Are they fats and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)

When he’s punishing you, he holds nothing back. You will feel every inch of him as he pushes you into the mattress or pulls you against him. Your skin will be marked and bruised, your ass sore from spanking - he will remind you he’s the boss. Yet, he has such gentleness when he’s reallllllly making love to you. His hands sliding over your breasts - just barely touching you as he kisses right beneath your ear, nipping and sucking as you moan beneath him.

Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)

With Rio’s odd hours, sometimes a quickie is all you have and you will gladly take it any way you can. Sneaking away on lunch breaks is your MO and getting fucked raw in the parking lot by your crime boss boyfriend helps pass the rest of the day with ease.

R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)

Rio’s whole life is a risk, so it only makes sense that he takes calculated ones on with you.

“When will they be here?” Your voice was soft in the dark car. “Not too much longer.” Rio threaded his fingers through yours - his thumb rubbing your hand reflexively. “Not too much longer, huh?” You inquired as you slid your hand over his jeans - feeling him grow hard underneath your touch. Your hands worked expertly to slide him out of his jeans - your mouth watering as you slid your tongue around his length. “Mami, now?” His dark eyes filled with lust as he watched your cheeks hollow - taking more in each time your head bobbed. Rio’s head laid back as you choked against his length, sliding your flat tongue, feeling each ridge. “Mama. Fuck.” His fingers pulled your hair - his tightening grasp directed your efforts as you felt him come undone - your throat filling with him.

Sitting up, you wiped your mouth - a coy smirk breaking over your face as you realized Beth had been watching from the swing the whole time.

S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…)

Rio can push you to your limits and he always makes sure you come first. You are more than accommodating and he spends his time worshipping you.

T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)

Rio is not a conventional lover, and he will gladly tie your hands - teasing you with the lack of touch while he stares down at you. “Oh mama, what do you want?” His voice rough into your ear as he rocks against your hips - his fingers expertly rubbing your clit as you struggle against the binds.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Rio knows how responsive you are and loves to leave you wanting more. A dirty whisper in your ear as you wait to be seated at dinner, his hand resting right above your ass, his beard rubbing against your neck will leave you asking for the check before you’re even finished with the meal.

V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)

Rio isn’t loud, but he talks.

“Look at you take this dick, mama.”

“You’re such a good girl.”

“Darlin, I didn’t say you could come.”

“Take it. You asked for it.”

“How could you think you could move my pussy?”

“Fuck yourself till you come.”

W = Wild Card (Get a random headcanon for the character of your choice)

Rio is a sucker for cheesy romance - rose petals on the floor, candles lit, a bubble bath in a heart shaped tub - he loves it all. The weekend spent in Vegas felt like a rom com, but watching your man be intentional with his choices and his time makes your panties wet.

X = X-Ray (Let’s see what’s going on in those pants)

He may be skinny, but his dick isn’t.

Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

Rio is a busy man and compartmentalizes most of his feelings, including his sex drive. He misses you constantly, but money ain’t going to wash itself, so he keeps his shit together.

Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Rio keeps odd hours, so he does fall asleep after, but it’s without guilt, because you’re snuggled right there with him.

Is This Love? ft. Eremika<3

Hello, my fine furry friends. I’m back with what I reallllllly hope makes up for being gone. If you’ve ever gotten a migraine, have POTS or EDS, or you’re a spoonie, whatever, you understand why more than most people. When I’m symptomatic, it’s harder to think straight, and it’s so fucking annoying :c Anyway, enjoy a piece inspired by this classic love song by Whitesnake. Ugh, love them! (But mostly Eremika 😍) Also, YES, you can still submit suggestions. I’m always looking for new ideas!! You can private message me as well, I’ve had a few people reach out that way, but do feel free to reach out this way, too. ❤️ Thank you for being understanding! Alright, lets do this, it’s a long one!

In racing thoughts she demands his attention at all hours of the day no matter what Eren is doing, or who he may be with at the time, there's no stopping them now that he's begun to question how he feels about Mikasa, so he can't push her out of his head even if he wanted to. Who the hell am I kidding? I've been aware of these feelings for years now. I don't know if I can fight it anymore. He tossed his dog's tennis ball in the air and quickly caught it in one hand with a long, drawn out sigh, thinking about how wonderful it would be to turn his chair around and see the most beautiful woman in the world laying in his bed, even if she's just sleeping. I'd give anything to hold her right now. There's gotta be more to this than I'm aware of because why else would I be thinking and dreaming about her? Mikasa has been out of town with her family for almost a month and, though she's gone on vacation for week every summer for as long as he can recall, the young man quickly found himself to be missing her a lot more than usual because the pair has never really been apart longer than a week or two at a time. However, since it's senior year, her parents decided to let their daughter choose a destination instead of a default visit to see family, and even extended the duration of their trip as well. Their flight home from Japan landed over an hour ago and all Eren can think about is calling her to see if it would be okay to drop in since he's much too impatient to wait until Monday morning. With a quick glance over his desk he reached for his phone and dialed her number knowing that, even at 12:30 am, she would still be awake from her pesky insomnia.

"Eren? Are you okay? What is it?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Can I come over?" He asked, giving the tennis ball another toss up into the air to catch it as he maneuvered himself to stand from his chair.

"Why?"

"I just need to see you."

"Oh! Well, alright -"

"I'll be there in a few minutes."

"But, Eren, I don't understand -"

"Just wait up for me, okay? Give me ten minutes."

Mikasa was sitting at her desk with a sketch book when he arrived, looking focused and determined with whatever she's drawing. Through the window, he can hear Aerosmith's Angel as he quietly observed the familiar and ridiculously sexy way she's pushing her fingers through the sheet of black satin that insists on falling across her beautiful face. God, she's fucking gorgeous. Eren lightly tapped on her window with his knuckles, and immediately felt his knees grow weak when she looked up from her sketch book, not even positive whether it's that pearly smile, the finger she's giving in request for a second more, or the sight of her bare, long legs as she rose out of her chair, flipping her hair over to put it in a messy bun that's throwing him off it’s so cute. She caught the perfect glimpse of Eren standing at her bedroom window when she came back up and, little did he know, his grin and the way he stands with his hands tucked deep in his pockets, the subtle waves of his shaggy, chocolate brown hair all make her weak at the knees, and always have for as long as she can remember. The elastic snapped in place to secure her hair as she pressed her hands against the window to push it open it for him, practically bouncing on her feet from excitement. "Oh my god, Eren!" Mikasa grinned, throwing her arms around his neck as she suddenly jumped to catch his waist between her legs and rested her cheek on his shoulder, stomach fluttering from the sound of his quiet chuckle and the feeling of his arms tightly wrapped around her petite frame as they stumbled back a step together. "I can't believe this! Why are you here?"

Well, this certainly hasn't happened before.

"I, uh," Eren smiled as she pulled back to look into his eyes and carefully helped her slide down onto her feet, anxiously resting a hand on the back of his neck. "I missed you a lot and I didn't wanna wait until Monday morning to see you." Her cheeks immediately blushed a light shade of pink as she bit her lip to disguise the automatic smile, timidly crossing her arms on her chest to rub her own shoulders.

"Really?"

"Mikasa," He cleared his throat from nerves, fighting the urge to grab that pretty little face and kiss her, his eyes flickering from those stormy grays to a pair of baby pink tulip lips. "There's something that I need to tell you."

"Sure, what is it?"

"I'm in love with you," Eren smiled as he carefully took her face in hands when her mouth fell open to express shock, listening to the wonderful sound of her giggle while she reached her hands up to carefully grab onto his wrists. Their faces slowly grew closer, allowing them the ability to lightly rub the tips of their noses together. "I’m crazy about you." With a large grin, she slid her nose alongside his just like she’s always dreamed of doing, squeezing her hands around his wrists.

"Say what now?"

"Did I fucking stutter? I said -" He smirked as she let out a soft giggle, carefully studying each other's eyes. "I'm in love with you, I think you're beautiful, and I think you’re sexy as hell."

"Wow..."

"Wow?"

"I-I just," Mikasa smiled as he lightly stroked her cheeks with his thumbs. "Do you have any idea how crazy -" But he couldn't take it anymore and crashed his lips against hers, neither of them giving a single damn about the brief bout of sloppy, inexperienced kisses. After tonight, there will be no more repressed feelings and occasionally pissing each other off from the sexual tension, just two new lovers falling into bed together for the first time. She happily lay beneath him as her hands slowly roaming his back, trapping him between her legs and kissing him like he was her only source for air, just as desperately as the way that they're being returned. Her fingers sunk into his hair as he slid his hands beneath her baggy night shirt until they were resting on top of her toned stomach, so smooth, soft and warm. How could he have been so dense not to notice how blatant her flags were, despite being waved directly in front of his face? This woman has always harbored these same feelings for him, but he was so ignorant to how she felt that he had missed all of them until recently and intends to make it up to her no matter how long it takes, and he'll prove such motivations tonight. Slowly, he pulled his lips away and pushed her shirt up to expose a pair of perky, braless breasts, watching those expressive eyes as he leaned down to drag his tongue on one of her hardened nipples. She sighed happily as she slowly ran her fingers through his hair and arched her back to push even more of her aroused, sensitive breasts closer to his eager mouth.

"So, I had a huge epiphany while you were gone," Eren flicked his tongue across her nipple and smirked as he gave it a kiss. "When I realized after a week that I had started to miss you. And at that point, I couldn't stop thinking about you," He paused with a smile when she started to blush, more than happy to hear the sound of her giggle. "That's when I realized how long I've had these romantic feelings towards you. For some reason, they were a lot easier to control and ignore until you left for more than a week.” She placed a finger under his chin and gently forced him to look up at her, smiling sweetly as she slowly pushed her fingers through his hair.

"I really missed you too, Eren..."

"So, if I were to ask you to be my girlfriend, what would you say?"

"I'd say that it's about damn time." Mikasa giggled as she gently played with his hair, content with allowing him to grope her naked breasts in his hands and roll his thumbs over her nipples, kissing the newly discovered erogenous spot on her neck with a quiet chuckle because she suddenly began to grind against his increasingly noticeable hard-on. Squirming this way and that, she sighed with pleasure from the electrifying feeling of his mouth suckling and nibbling on her neck, knowing very well that he can’t get enough of her already.

"I could do this all night." Eren squished her breasts together and smiled when she let out a tiny squeal, pressing her legs into his sides as he finally took one of the sensitive tips in his mouth, suckling gently or harder depending on her moans. He lay beside her on his side, carefully resting one of his hands across her stomach to slowly rub along the waistline of her red and blue flannel pj shorts as his mouth gradually released her nipple, looking up to meet those beautiful, hypnotic eyes. "May I?" He smirked when she giggled and nodded her head in response, eager to return his little pecks as she allowed him the privilege of spreading her legs, leaving one bent while the other was slowly pushed down sideways so his hand could easily slip beneath her shorts and panties to touch the heat.

"This can't be happening..." Mikasa grinned as he leaned in to kiss her once more and slowly reached up to cradle his cheek in her hand, all while one of his fingers slipped along the wet flesh between her legs. It's something that he's thought about in passing on occasion, fingering her to really get her going before burying his face between those gorgeous, long legs, thoughts he has more often when she wears shorts or something that eventuates her slim lower half. He slid his hand up an impressively toned stomach and kissed down her body so slowly, so sensually that it sent chills down her spine. "Oh, you don't need to do that.." The young woman managed to say through rugged breaths, watching through a half lidded gaze as he pulled her shorts and panties down until everything fell on the floor. He leaned in to kiss her smile before dragging his lips, teeth and tongue along her torso, kissing progressively lower and lower. Oh, how she's longed to see this man peeking up from between her legs doing precisely what he's about to do.

"Do you want me to stop?"

"No! No, I just..." She flashed a most endearing, bashful smile and blushed. "I'm still a virgin, so I've never been..."

"Eaten out?"

"Yeah, that."

"Don't worry, you're my first time doing anything like this, too...” Eren offered her a comforting smile as he took one of her hands in his and laced their fingers together. "But it’s just like everything else we’ve encountered. We’ll figure it out together, right?" She bit her lip to hide a grin, feeling so flattered and wanted by him that it gave her a hot flash of nervousness, worsening the tint on her cheeks.

"Okay...” And it's immediately clear that she was entranced with his voice, finally experiencing the new sensation of someone else's fingers pressed on her absolutely aching clitoris. Mikasa reached up to push her hair out of her face and smiled, watching his eyes as he carefully slipped a finger inside the wetness with a smirk because her mouth has fallen open. She bit her bottom lip as he set a hand on her thigh, gently pushing that leg aside to prevent it from closing around his head, growing harder by the second at the sight of glistening skin.

"You're so wet..." He smirked, watching her grin become disguised with a lip bite as he leaned in so he could drag his tongue along her slit to get a good taste, and glanced up in time to see her head fall back against the pillow. "In case you were concerned," Eren whispered, wiggling the tip of his tongue on her clitoris before quickly lapping at any new fluids. "You smell and taste sweet." She moaned softly from the feeling of his flattened tongue rubbing circles on her little nub and gently tugged on his hair, slapping a hand over her mouth to catch a moan just as it came roaring out from the back of her throat.

"Erennnnnn..." There was an instant tightening of his jeans from her sounds, which became even worse when she grew juicer from his finger slowly moving in and out with the hopes of avoiding any discomfort, only to receive nothing but little, pleasurable sounds muffled by her hand. He carefully added a second finger, taking his time with pushing it deeper as her fingers accidentally pulled too hard on his hair, making him tear his mouth away with a quiet chuckle, planting a kiss on her cleanly shaven mound as his finger slowly slipped in and out of her.

“Ow.” Eren teased as he lifted his head to see that her face has changed significantly in the last few minutes from their intimate encounter, her head back against the pillow, and since she's finally aware of how he feels, he can admire her beauty without a single care if she catches him or not. He reached for the hand she has loosely tucked in his hair and laced their fingers together over her thigh to press it into the mattress. “You’re so beautiful.” The young woman hummed in response with a smile as she lightly rubbed her foot along his back and removed her baggy shirt to bare herself in front of him completely for the first time. His fingers moved faster as he sealed his mouth around her damp, pink flesh and suckled, having remembered overhearing from other guys that doing so will definitely drive her wild. Mikasa whimpered into her hand, squealing with delight as she squirmed in his arms this way and that, forcing him to remove his fingers and slide his arms beneath her hips, holding her still against his mouth. Moments later, she covered his tongue in her nectar, his head quickly shaking side to side as his lips rubbed her overly sensitive clitoris, making her tremble as he removed his mouth. He planted a kiss on the outside of her glistening slit and slowly trailed them up to her mound, finally opening his piercing green eyes to glance up at the woman he's always loved more than anything.

“Holy shit," Mikasa giggled as he slowly kissed up the rest of her body and gently squeezed her hand in his before releasing it to tuck his hands beneath her pillow. "That was amazing..."

"It'll only get better with practice you know.” He smirked, wiggling his eyebrows at her as she reached up to hook her arms around his neck, pulling him down for a brief, rapid succession of kisses.

"Can you stay tonight?"

"I'll have to leave really early but, yeah," Eren smiled as he leaned down to gently kiss the tip of her nose. "I can stay tonight."

"Good." She smiled as he flashed a devilish grin and dove into the side of her neck, reaching between them to mess with the buckle of his belt. "There's something that I've always wanted to do with you," Her breath tickled his cheek as her fingers tucked beneath the waistline of his opened jeans and boxers. "I wanna suck your cock.." Eren slowly looked up into her eyes, his widened out of shock because he's never pegged someone like Mikasa as having the desire to do such a thing, but mostly psyched having been getting the occasional dream where they engage in rough sex that always starts with her being passionately eaten out.

“Are you sure? I don't want you to feel like you owe me."

"No, I want to." Mikasa smiled sweetly as she lightly touched the sensitive head with her fingertips. "Because it’s your turn now, Eren..." He felt himself grow red at her proposition but also getting extremely hard and excited, rolling off of her onto his back so she could easily remove the clothing from his legs, tossing them on the carpeted floor in a nearly silent heap. Biting her lip, she gently slid her hands beneath his shirt in the hopes of encouraging him to sit up and remove it, impressing her immediately with how ripped he is while still being so slender. "Wow, and you say my body is incredible?" He just propped himself up on his elbows with a smirk, watching a string of her spit dribble out onto his well endowment as she began to slowly rub her hand along the length.

“That’s because your body is incredible and no, I haven't had my dick sucked."

"I'm honored to be the only one who gets to taste it..." Mikasa grinned at the man gazing at her lovingly as he reached for the sheet of raven hair shielding his view of her beautiful face. "You may have to help me." With a gentle touch, she swiped her thumb across the tiny, oozing slit and stroked his raging hard-on, smiling with those stormy grays as she leaned down to slowly lick up the shaft of cock once, twice, three times, his hand gathering all of her hair to one side. He groaned as she swirled her tongue around the head with a smirk, watching her allow more saliva to cover his entire hot length, lips slowly traveling along each side and pause so she could gently suck the sensitive head into her mouth.“Holy fuck, Miki..." Eren chuckled with a quiet grunt when he felt her sweet lips slowly massage just the head before she started following her hand along his length. Her hand came to rest at the base and gently gripped his balls as she slowly tried to swallow his length, only to gag and immediately pull away with a mix between a cough and a giggle. “Try relaxing your throat if you're gonna - just like that..." He half moaned under his breath and released her soft hair from his grasp to run his fingers through it the next instant, making sure to push stray hairs away from her face. But when she came back up, a hand replaced her mouth and made him feel dizzy from the pleasure of her head bobbing with her simultaneous strokes. His breath was now caught in his throat at the feeling of her hollowing her cheeks, slowing her pace to prepare for the inevitable as she slid a hand up his abs to hold the hand he has resting on his chest and laced their fingers together. He grunted and involuntarily bucked his hips with every spurt of hot seed shot into her mouth that were swallowed happily as he slowly rubbed his thumb over the top of her hand. When her eyes finally opened after coming up for air, Mikasa was pleasantly surprised to see his incredible green eyes already on her as she released him from her mouth with an audible pop. "Fuck, that was every bit as hot as I imagined." He chuckled, watching her tongue seductively swipe across her bottom lip and sit up on her knees, a finger scooping any leftovers from her chin as she swirled her tongue around the tip of her finger before sticking the small sample into her mouth, watching his smile quickly turn into a playful smirk. "'Oh, Eren, I've never sucked a dick before' that's you," She smiled as she straddled his lap and leaned down to slowly drag open mouthed kisses up his chest. "That's how you sound."

“I kinda just did whatever I thought would feel good and I guess it worked," Mikasa giggled as she licked up to the side of his neck, making him groan playfully as he rose to wrap his arms around her tiny waist. "I don't know what everyone's complaining about because it really isn't that salty..."

“I don't really eat salty stuff. I’ve heard that eating a crap-ton of fruit is supposed to make it taste better, maybe we can try that sometime?"

"Oooh," Mikasa grinned and snaked her arms around his neck. "I can't believe I'm saying this but I look forward to doing that." She watched his eyes, allowing him to slowly guide her slick heat along the length of his cock with a soft moan and leaned in to plant a kiss on his lips. "I’m on the pill but.."

“Don’t worry, I have no intentions of knocking you up quite yet.”

"Does that mean you intend to marry me someday?"

"Why not?" Eren smirked when she pressed her lips against his once more and flipped the girl on her back, making her giggle as she eagerly spread her legs for him then hooked one around his waist. He slowly pulled away just enough to look into her eyes, holding himself up with support from his hands being pressed into the mattress, making sure to take his time with inching his way inside and give her frequent breaks consisting of brief, tender, distracting kisses. With watery eyes, she whimpered into his mouth, making him pull away again as he brought a hand up to wipe her tears. “I'm so sorry, baby."

“It's okay." Mikasa offered a sweet smile as he leaned in to kiss her and slipped his hands back beneath her pillow, more than content with laying still so she can get used to his thick length buried inside of her after years of wondering what this moment would be like. She moaned softly into his mouth, letting him know that she's finally passed the worst of the discomfort, that it would be okay to start moving and he did so slowly, making her tear away with a quiet giggle against his lips. "Ooh, you're so big..." Eren just smirked, letting out a small chuckle as he crashed his lips against hers and slipped his tongue into her mouth, both of them fighting the other for dominance. She sunk her fingers into his soft, chocolate brown hair and allowed one of her hands to roam his toned, naked back as she deepened their kiss even further, totally unprepared for how good it would feel when his hips really started moving. The quiet moans that filled his mouth only served to make him want to thrust faster, their lips soon parting with an audible smack since she had erupted into a fit of uncontrollable moans as she arched her back and used her legs to pull him closer, looking up into his eyes with an equally half lidded, lustrous gaze. "Oh, Erenn!" The girl managed to say amidst her moans and smiled at his smirk as he dove in for the side of her neck to bathe her soft skin with kisses, his hand reaching back so he could slowly caress her leg while giving the most erogenous spot a much rougher kiss.

“I love how fucking tight you are..." His breath tickled her ear, and it made her squirm even more, smiling as she rode him from below because her climax is overwhelming and it has her drunk. She could tell how close he was because his breathing had gotten increasingly choppy and, being close to another orgasm, she decided that it would be fun to try talking dirty.

“Come for me, Eren,” Mikasa moaned to him, digging her nails into his back as he thrusted into her faster and faster. “Oooh,” Her voice was quiet as she tried to control her sounds, squealing with delight loud enough for the two of them to hear. “You can come inside me, ohh, yes, fuck me! Fill up my tight little -”

"Ohho no," The young man smirked as he propped himself up on his hands to watch her breasts move in tandem with her equally perfect body, their hips not once slowing down. "There's something that I have always wanted to do with you...” She giggled upon remembering what was said earlier before everything had started, when Mikasa mentioned something to him along the same lines. He took in a sharp breath and chuckled from the incredible feeling of her inner walls constricting or releasing him because it was simply intoxicating, and it sent them both over the edge into a blissful state. With a swift movement, Eren sat up straight as he pulled out and immediately hunched over her body again, pumping himself until his load squirted onto her stomach, making her giggle because she’s still in a little bit of shock that this even occurred, let alone the fact she just slept with her childhood best friend. “Cum on your fantastic abs.” He said breathlessly and quickly copied the smile on her face as he planted a kiss on her soft lips.

“Wait, really?”

"Totally. I've always been aware of how attractive you are, you know, especially when you wear a bikini. Guys come up to me and ask if you're single all the time."

"Well, now you can say, 'Mikasa Ackerman is my girlfriend, so go fuck yourself.'"

"I used to hate it when that happened but now I'm excited to brag about you being mine." Eren smiled, watching her eyes as she reached a hand between them to touch the evidence from their night of passion and seductively stuffed whatever was left on her finger into her mouth with a playful grin. "Seriously, Mikasa, you’re mega hot." Suddenly, a cellphone sitting on the nightstand beside them vibrated, which prompted her to reach for hers as he leaned down to press his lips to her neck. She smiled and wrapped her arms around his shoulders to see her phone screen, and then she gasped.

Levi: Oi, brat, I'm trying to sleep over here and it's really difficult with all of your incessant screaming.

Those Comics | Chapter One

Marvel/DC crossover x reader Warnings: Swearing and reallllllly, reallllllly bit of Angst (not really) Word count: 3353 Summary: When a sparring session with Wanda goes wrong, you find yourself in a really familiar, but still strange place... Series: You’re here | Chapter Two | Chapter Three

"Why are you always reading those comics? Don't they get boring after some time?" Tony asked coming into the living room where you sat upside down on a fluffy, grey armchair, reading the Gotham Academy comic that you've already read thousands of times. "I'll stop reading 'those comics' when you stop listening to AC-DC," you replied with a smirk on your lips, not looking up from the page you were currently on. "That-...That's not the same thing," he defended himself. "Yep, it is," Peter interfered from the bar in the corner in the room, where he worked on his Spanish-homework. With your eyes on the graphics in front of you, you didn't see how Tony mouthed 'Traitor' at Peter, but Peter just shrugged. You were like his older sister and he would always stand behind you, no matter what. "But...you're a superhero yourself and you live in a building full of other superheroes. Why do you need to read about them?" Knowing that you couldn't continue reading in peace you set the comic down and teleported it into your Bookshelf. "I always loved it. It was the only thing I cared for besides my lab and...after the incident...Well, I just wanted to have a little bit normality," you said, looking at the ceiling. Tony knew better than to say anything. Every Avenger knew that talking about the 'incident' is an absolute no-go. Back when you were only 18 years old, only a few months after getting your first job at one of America's finest Laboratories, your whole life changed. You tried to impress your new employer and so you did everything in your power and managed to get blood samples of Captain America, Black Widow, Spider-man and even a little sample of Hulks blood and you had an explicit plan for them. No. You didn't want to create a superhuman who'll be able to destroy something, you just wanted to help people. You knew that all the heroes you had blood from had a faster healing capacity than the average human and you wanted to use this, but you were stupid and tried to do it alone. Long story short: Something exploded, you inhaled some stuff, you changed and now you have the typical super soldier powers (Strength, speed and fast healing) and, because of a little big bang that happened when the blood cells of the different heroes mixed and started to attack each other + heat + science, the power to teleport yourself and other things/people. After that, you got recruited by Natasha Romanov and since then you're a part of the Avengers and a part of the family. You considered Tony a father because he was always there for you and would move heaven and hell for you, Natasha a mother, because she'd never doubt you and would support you when you needed support, and Peter, Wanda, Pietro (and Shuri) your siblings. Of course, the rest was also family, but your relationship with those was especially strong. Tony cleared his throat beside you and you noticed that you spaced off. "Did you say something?" you asked him, raising your eyebrows. "Yes. I don't think it's healthy to sit with your head down for so long," he said with a hint of concern in his voice. Rolling your eyes, even though your head indeed began to hurt, you rolled yourself off of the armchair and stood up, glad that you weren't dizzy. "Miss Y/L/N, Miss and Mister Maximoff want me to tell you that they hoped you'd join training today," surprised you FRIDAY. You huffed, but answered: "Tell them I'll be there in five." You winked at Tony, who only chuckled and sat down, and went over to Peter to give him a kiss on his cheek. "When you're finished, you can take yourself a piece of the apple pie in the fridge-" you thought for a moment, "-you know what take two and give one to May. Greet her from me." Peter hugged you and said: "Will do. Go easy on Wanda and Pietro." "No promises," you giggled and teleported yourself into your room to put on your training clothes.

Three minutes later you stood in the training Area, surveyed by Clint and Natasha, besides Wanda and Pietro, stretching yourself. "We'll start with 10 rounds," stated Natasha, which earned her a laugh from Piet, a chuckle from you and a groan from Wanda. As the only one without physic-enhancing-powers, she obviously had the most problems with that. All three of you went into the starting position when Natasha added: "For Wanda." Pietro and you looked at her confused, but she continued with a smirk: "10 rounds for Wanda, 25 rounds for Y/N and 100 rounds for Pietro. Friday counts." Now Wanda was the one to chuckle and you and Pietro the ones to groan. "Start," Nat shouted and all off you started. After two minutes Pietro wasn't visible anymore, you were already two and a half rounds in and Wanda just finished the first half of her first round, already looking exhausted. You finished your 25 rounds in seven minutes as the first, which was mostly because Pietro tried to cheat and Natasha gave him 50 extra rounds. He finished a few minutes after you and Natasha allowed Wanda to stop earlier because the young woman was already breathing heavily, while you and Piet didn't even break a sweat. When the young Sokovians breath calmed down, you once again stood in a line with Nat in front of you. "Now we're going to do some sparing. Powers are allowed, but nothing that could have serious long-term consequence." she stepped back and motioned at the boxing ring in the middle of the room, "Wanda against Y/N. First one on the floor loses." The both of you made your way in the ring and stood opposite each other with smiles on your lips. "Good luck," you winked at Wanda. "I'm going to need it. I've got a feeling that you won't go easy on me today," she chuckled with a hint of worry in her voice. "You're right," you said and immediately teleported behind her kicking in her knee-pits (not with your super-strength). She almost fell but used her powers to lift herself off of the ground and turned around in the process. What she didn't expect was that you already expected that and threw a punch directed at her face. Wanda lifted her hands trying to shield her face and the second your skin touched hers the red energy from her body wandered over to you. Everything around you blurred out and you could only remotely hear a gasp and your name being called. Panic and fear filled your head and you felt like you burned from the inside. The only thought that swam around in your head was that you wanted to be somewhere else. As far away as possible. And it seemed like your body fulfilled your wish because a second later the fear and panic was gone. You must have teleported yourself away. It took you a second to realize what was happening. You were falling. Fast. A look down told you that you were falling straight down onto the ground, but it seemed like you were still pretty far away. What only meant that you'd get faster, until you reach the fastest falling point and, considering your approximate height, would most likely start burning, because of the friction. And if that wouldn't happen you would definitely splash on the ground, hopefully not killing someone in the process. Maybe you would even survive those things. You hadn't tested the limits of your healing powers yet and you didn't plan on doing so now. You felt your body getting hotter and you could basically hear your life-count tick. You'd only had one idea. Use your teleportation. You closed your eyes and concentrated, but because you didn't know how high you were, you could only guess. A second later you reopened your eyes to be greeted by the ground being much closer. But still too far away for a human to survive, but before you could do something, you felt your body hitting the floor. You groaned in pain, while you lifted yourself off of the ground. A look at yourself told you that you had barely any wounds, but left quite a crater around you. "Shit," you mumbled and picked yourself off of the ground. Your whole outfit and most of the rest of your body was full of dust and earth. Your gaze wandered around the area around you. You've never seen this place. A few meters away stood a huge building that looked pretty old and you were thankful that you landed in the park behind it. Or was it the garden? You didn't know. With a huge leap, you jumped out off the hole and took your stark-phone out of your pocket. Since crashes weren't unusual in your 'job', Tony and Shuri together modified the normal stark-phone with Vibranium to make it basically indestructible. You turned it on and tried to call Nat to tell the others you were okay; only to hear a record of FRIDAY saying: "I'm sorry, but it seems like you have no connection. Please try again later." Confusion filled your eyes. No connection on a stark-phone? That was like saying: No water in a swimming pool. Weird... You put the phone back into your pocket and started to walk towards the old house- If someone lived in there they would've most likely heard the crash- and the nearer you came to it, the clearer you could hear different male voices discuss anything. You tried to find out where the voices came from and guessed that the people speaking came around the house. Your Avengers instinct took over and you teleported yourself on top of a huge tree that stood beside the path that leads around the house. "I bet it's one of the supers and they need our help with something," spoke a male voice. "As if. Clark and the others know how to use a phone," said another voice that sounded slightly younger. "TT. Could we hurry up a bit? If we continue to be so slow, whoever crashed in the backyard, will be gone," yet another voice said, but this person was definitely a child or a young teenager. "Calm down Demon-spawn." Wait...Demon-spawn? Somewhere in your mind, a little bell ringed, but you couldn't remember what your mind tried to tell you. The four people who talked finally came around the corner and all four looked similar (and kind of familiar). They all had black hair (except for one of the two older ones, who had a white streak in his hair) and were buff...well, as buff as they could be for their age. Two of them looked like they were in their (really) early twenties, one looked around 15/16 and the last one looked like 12. If you had to guess, you'd say they were brothers. Maybe they could tell you where you were. You jumped down from the three, superhero-landing for the win, and cleared your throat. The boys turned around immediately. "Hey...äh...sorry about the crater in your garden...that's kinda my fault. Could you boys tell me where I landed?" you asked with a nice smile on your lips. The boys changed their stances and you recognized them as fighting stances. "Guys, believe me, you don't wanna fight me. I got here by accident and I don't plan on staying long. I'd just like to know where I am, so that I know how long the way back home is," you said, but also shifted your feet into a more fighting-like position. "Who are you?" asked the guy with the white streak while he narrowed his eyes. "I'm Y/N. Y/N Y/L/N. And you?" you answered, trying to stay positive. Now a look of confusion made its way onto the faces of the boys. "You...You don't know us?" the 15-year-old asked with one eyebrow raised. "Ähm. No. Sorry. As I said, I'm not from here." You shrugged your shoulders and tilted your head to the side, "Should I?" "We're the sons of Bruce Wayne. Everyone in Gotham knows who we are," said the youngest one and you couldn't help but start to laugh. Completely out of breath you laughed: "The...The sons...Of B-Bruce Wayne," before you started to laugh again. You looked at them, still giggling, before you turned serious and asked: "No, seriously. Who are you guys?" All of them looked at you like you were crazy and the youngest repeated: "The. Sons. Of. Bruce. Wayne." Your eyes wandered over their faces, searching for a hint of sarcasm, but they found nothing. "You...You're serious?" you asked, while the bell in your head ringed louder and louder. The old house, The 'Supers', Clark, Demon-Spawn, The sons of Bruce Wayne...could it be? Before someone could answer your question, you pointed to the one with the streak. "Jason?" He nodded and your finger wandered to the next grown up. "Dick?" He did it like Jason and nodded. The next person was Tim and the kid was Damian. When you found that out, you buried your hands in your hair. "Oh Shit, Oh Shit, Oh Shit. That's not possible. I can't be here. That shouldn't happen. That can't happen," you rambled and started to pace in front of the Waynes, who all looked at you like you were crazy. You stopped and opened your arms in a sweeping gesture. "I can't be talking with three freaking ex- and the current Robin," you whined, but immediately slapped your hand in front of your mouth. If the comics were right than the Batfam was really sensitive when it came to their secret identities. You were right, then a second later Jason rushed over to you with a raised fist, ready to fight. "Really?" you mumbled and dodges his punch, grabbing his arm and sweeping his feet away with your right foot. When he laid groaning on the floor, you turned to his brothers. "You know, fighting me is-" you started, but got interrupted by the other three who now came at you. Tim came from the left and Dick from the right, while Damien came from the front. You rolled your eyes and teleported yourself away, which ended in the three off them running into each other and landing groaning on top of Jason. "-Useless," you finished your sentence, leaning against the tree you sat in earlier. Damian was the first one to stand again and without hesitation, he came at you. "I know you got trained by the league of assassins and everything, but you're not the only one who had some bad-ass-trainers," you said, which made him stop for a second. You shrugged. "Ever heard of the Avengers? Are we the comic characters here?" Now Damian stopped completely and Dick, Tim and Jason stood also up beside him. "You mean the superhero-group with the rich guy, the Monster and the spider-dude?" Tim asked with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "First off; Yes. Second: Bruce isn't a monster, the spider-dude is called spider-man and it's not like your father isn't also a rich superhero dude. The only difference is that Tony doesn't hide his identity and that he's way more fun to work with." "So...you're saying that you're an Avenger, and with that, a comic character," asked Dick again. "Yep. You maybe know me under my superhero-pseudonym: Glitch. I'm the girl that tried to help people and got caught in a laboratory-accident which ended in me having powers..well-" you scratched your chin, "-now that I think about it there are at least twenty heroes in both of our universes that have that kind of story...Flash, Bruce also somehow..." You stopped yourself and shrugged. "But back to the topic. I was training with Wan- well you most likely know her as scarlet which, Black Widow, Hawkeye and Quicksilver. Things escalated a little bit and I kind of teleported myself here," you tilted your head again and mumbled: "I never knew that I could teleport between Universes." You turned to the boys again and saw the confusion in their faces, which soon turned into a smirk on Tim's lips. "You're Glitch. I love your comics. There was such a hype when you revealed that you're Pan," he squealed and you scratched the back of your neck. "I only told that my closest friends..." "Yeah, but it was in the comic and with that everyone who reads it knows it." "Great," you mumbled and rubbed your temples. "Why are you telling us all that?" interrupted Jason before Tim was able to freak out again. You smirked and shrugged. "I'm a fan of your stories and I made sure to know kind of everything about you and your universe, so I guess it's only fair if I'm honest with you." "So...are you able to teleport yourself back to your universe?" Damian asked a little bit grumpy, not caring for your statement. "I don't know...but I can try." You took a deep breath and closed your eyes concentrating on your home. You reopened your eyes and looked around and saw the boys still looking at you. "Nope. Maybe Universal-jumps need more energy...I'll try again later-" your eyes widened in hope, "-Can you introduce me to the justice league?"

(In the Marvel Universe, shortly after you disappeared)

"What have I done?" Wanda sobbed with her face in her hands while Pietro patted her back, also with tears pricking in his eyes. Both of them and almost all of the other Avengers were gathered in the main lab, while Bruce and Tony tried to locate you with the help of multiple satellites. After they had finally managed to defeat Thanos and bring back all the victims of the snap, becoming stronger as a team while doing so, all of them were kind of reliant on you. You were the one who kicked their ass when they started doubting themselves, and you were the one who held them when they cried or panicked about the whole freaking situation, never letting your shell burst in the process. You somehow became the heart of the Avengers. That was why everyone was on edge when Nat told them what had happened. They all worried about you since you normally teleported back in a matter of minutes, but now you've been gone for almost half an hour, and no one had an idea where you could be. "Anything on the Satellites?" asked Carol who was practically buzzing with energy. "No. Nothing, not even a trace. It looks like she isn't even on earth," Tony sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "Do you mean, she's on another planet?" asked Thor who was practically buzzing with energy. "I am saying, that I have no fucking clue where she is!" exclaimed Tony loudly, making most people in the room flinch. It wasn't usual for Tony to freak out like this, he was always calm and tried to make everything funny, but all of them knew how worried he was about you. After he had lost Peter, even though he came back, his mind played games with him, making him worry about losing one of his un-official kids again. "We'll find her, we need to," Carol said, laying her hand on Tony's shoulder to reassure him. "I'll go and ask some of my intergalactic contacts if they know something." She said, before nodding at the rest of the Team and jumping out of the window, flying towards the sky. "I'll see if I can find some spells to search her," Stephen announced and disappeared through one of his portals. One after one they all made their way to either find you or to save people, since they all know, that you wouldn't want them to neglect the people who needed them until only Tony was left in his lab, looking at a picture of you on his holo-desk. "Where are you?" he mumbled to himself, his glance wandering to the window, where the sun was slowly dawning. He had no idea of the adventure that was coming towards him and his family.

Extended thoughts on Brave the Tempest

2017’s Ride the Storm closed out the four-book arc that also included Hunt the Moon, Tempt the Stars, and Reap the Wind. In these books, Cassie battled Ares and his minions while drawing closer to Pritkin and eventually hunting him through time and space. She learns more about her abilities while trying to save his life, and also becomes a reluctant power player in supernatural (and inter-dimensional) politics. Without her faithful companion by her side, she becomes more confident in her own powers and resourcefulness. Of course, she’s still Cassie, so all her discoveries and victories are slapdash and hard-won. But they are still victories. She’s a daughter of Chaos, give her a break.

Brave the Tempest focuses on Cassie’s political duties and her complicated feelings about being a leader and a “hero”. She’s now slain two gods (with help), but that doesn’t result in easy respect from the witches or the vampires. The witches see her as a tool of the Silver Circle, while the vampires see her as an extension of Mircea. They are all so wrong.

Cassie has to demonstrate her full strength to convince these factions to cooperate with her. It works, but nothing is ever simple. In the long run, who will love her and who will fear her?

She’s becoming more like her mother every day.

Overall feelings

There are some amazing, joyful moments here. Please understand that I adore these books and characters, so I say this with love…

… but the book felt disjointed to me. We buzz back and forth from the witches to the vampires to the demons, and then go to Faerie and Victorian England. We get emotional scenes with Mircea, Pritkin, Marco, Rhea, and Rico. Augustine brings home a kidnapped fae. Tami needs to hire some staff but no one will take the job. Fred is a spy. Cassie is exhausted. I felt kind of exhausted too.

Important plotlines: Cassie’s growing pains with her powers, the political trouble with the witches and vampires, and the imminent invasion of Faerie. And then there was the timeline rupture. The rupture was terrifying and the fight with Jo in Victorian London was a full-on horror show. Cassie learned more about Pythian spells and then linked up her powers with Pritkin through the Lover’s Knot spell. She’ll probably need these tools for the coming showdown. She and Pritkin are even more powerful together than they are apart. And they are both forces for good. But will everyone see them that way?

I think Karen is just laying out all the pieces for the next arc. It’s a little messy right now, but it will all fit together soon. I’m glad that Shatter the Earth is coming in December. If I had to wait another two years for the next book, I would be upset.

Favorite moments

Pritkin flirting and Cassie retaliating during S’mores night. Especially the marshmallow at the end. Goddamn.

The Dickening.

Everything related to Saffy and Vi, and seeing Saffy and Rhea becoming friends. I think she is a great influence on Rhea.

Pritkin and Cassie’s meeting with Adra. I high-key love Adra. He’s a really interesting foil for Caedmon, who leads their alliance with the “heavenly” planes. Caedmon is manic and charming, while Adra is pleasant and even-keeled. Except when he forgets to animate his glamourie. I reallllllly want to know what Adra looks like under there, but I figure he’s a Lovecraftian monster that would drive us insane.

Adra shading Pritkin for never attending demon council meetings like other “heirs apparent.”

Cassie nonchalantly offering to bring Adra to the vampire council.

Gertie nonchalantly easing Pritkin out of the room and shifting him to the depot.

Cassie borrowing Pritkin’s powers to suck the energy out of Jo.

Big events and revelations

Pritkin is not shy and neither is Cassie. I thought we would get some pussy-footing about their relationship, but we DID NOT. Pritkin came on strong and Cassie reciprocated. I wish I had a chance to read Siren’s Song first. They had some time to let the tension build and I *do* love a slow burn… torture me, baby!

Ancient Horrors! Children of Tiamat/Tethys! Pritkin is 1/16th divine! Kind of a watered-down Ancient Horror, if you will. Minus the tentacles.

Lover’s Knot

Fucking Jonathan

Invasion of Faerie needs to happen ASAP

Jo is more dangerous as a ghost because ghosts can absorb infinite power. (Can we turn Billy Joe into a super soldier???)

MIRCEA THE BOLD!

Cassie agreed to go find Elena because she’s afraid that Mircea will do it himself. And she doesn’t want to kill him.

Fred is a spy working for MARLOWE! And I guess his master power is camouflaging his aura.

Rico is from Napoli (this explains a lot, because I was confused when he said putanas instead of putane. Dialect!)

NEW PYTHIAN SPELLS: Shards and Chimera!

Young Agnes is a real bitch.

The pros

I said this in a separate post, but I’ll say it here too. Cassie and Pritkin are back together and their relationship is so healthy and mutually supportive that it makes my heart ache. This is real #relationshipgoals. They are confidants and protectors and cheerleaders for each other. They don’t keep secrets or manipulate or gaslight. We need more of this sci-fi/fantasy and romance. There are too many dark, brooding male love interests who are borderline abusive. (Ahem, Mircea.)

MORE LGBT REPRESENTATION!

The emergence of Mircea the Bold. I like Mircea as a character, but not as a love interest for Cassie. I’m happy to see him going through this transformation. He’s becoming more open and genuine. He’s not going to win Cassie’s affections, but I do think that he’s going to redeem himself in Dory’s eyes.

GERTIE IS BACK! And *not* as a roadblock. She’s a powerful woman who helps other women, and I am all. about. that. mood.

The cons

TOO. MUCH. RECAP. Especially recap that broke up highly emotional moments. I don’t care if you are trying to explain things for new readers. Fuck ‘em. Anyone who buys a book, discovers it is part 1000 of an ongoing series, and tries to read it anyways… is a psychopath.

Too many plot-lines

I miss Rosier.

We all knew that something was up with Fred, but I don’t think that his revelation as a spy got as much weight and screen-time as it deserved.

I feel like the “wrap-up” with Jonathan felt rushed. He’s supposed to be terrifying but I’m like “meh, whatever, Jonathan, small fry compared to Apollo and Ares.” But I think she’ll get back to it in greater depth in the next book, so I can deal.

Can we PLEASE have some consistency about Agnes’s age? We see her as a teenager in late 19th-century London, for god’s sake. She must have been *at least* 130 years old when she died, and that’s being charitable. Previously, Cassie has said that Agnes was about 80. Lies.

The questions

1. My BIGGEST question. Cassie is changing. Not just maturing, but changing on a metaphysical level. The coldness, the hunger… I’m frightened for her. It’s not withdrawal from the Tears of Apollo and it’s not normal exhaustion. I have some theories.

Her divine side is becoming stronger and she’s beginning to require life energy in the same way that her human side needs food, water, and sleep. Why is this happening now? Maybe the Tears of Apollo are part of the equation, albeit indirectly. She’s been using more and more Pythian power thanks to the potion, and perhaps that has awakened her divine side more strongly. This is a little worrisome because she may have to feed on a regular basis to stay functional. Can she get all the energy she needs from incubus sex or from the Lover’s Knot? What are the moral considerations here?

Less likely, but she might really be pregnant. I’m not a huge fan of this idea, but Rosier does mention in Reap the Wind or Ride the Storm that the incubus-child feeds on the life energy of the mother as it grows. That’s why his attempts at procreation failed until he impregnated Morgaine, who was part royal fae and part divine. If this is the case, Cassie might be having life-energy cravings instead of food cravings. Or maybe this is the divine/demon/fey version of morning sickness? Pritkin, please start using birth control.

2. What happened with Pritkin in Siren’s Song? Does Jonas know his true identity now?

3. So who is Pritkin’s divine great-great grandmother? Any speculation?

4. Cassie begins to wonder if any of the gods might be open to diplomacy. This must go somewhere. And it’s true, there are a number of gods in the pantheon who are traditionally friendlier towards humans than others. Athena is the first that comes to mind. There’s also the mythic trope of the Trickster/Fire-Bringer who helps humanity: Prometheus, Anansi, etc. And there’s Loki, who doesn’t so much love humans as he loves to trouble the other gods.

MVPs

Ok, Cassie is the real MVP, as always. But barring her, I’m awarding this prize to the no-nonsense, sisterly duo of our hearts: Gertie and Hilde. They are officious and annoying, but that’s because they tell you what you don’t want to hear, and they are RIGHT. They are so right.

My interests are music, art, and anime. I like to draw & write poems, but i don't like to show people because i'm not really confident in my work. I have a tendency to try & solve other people's problems while ignoring my own and I sometimes have a hard time standing up to people. I didn't always have a lot of confidence, but now i'm learning to love and stand up for myself. I am 19, 5'3, i have longish dark hair, I wear glasses, i have dark brown eyes, and I'm black/cherokee/west indie. 💗

Thank you for requesting~

Your match is Han Jumin!

This was reallllllly close between V and Jumin but I think you might have a little bit more affinity with Jumin! (Plus I think he’d need you more)

Alright so, I gotta say, he’s not quite into anime but he definitely has an interest in art or at least the purchasing of said art. He would love a good excursion to the gallery. I feel like he’s the type who definitely appreciates this sort of outing!He would also hold poetry to some regard as well. It’s not that he has an interest in it but he is able to appreciate it.However, he’s the type to force his way into what you do. You say that you don’t really show people your work but Jumin, he would make sure he saw it. He would have this sort of ‘tough’ attitude with you and would want to aid you in building up your confidence... with some tough love.

While Jumin may have a lot of problems that you can help solve, he would definitely bring up the fact that you can’t ignore your own problems. He would stop you from dealing with him and get you to deal with yourself first. He cares about you and doesn’t want you getting lost within your problems as well as his own. Plus, where you have problems standing up to others, Jumin would help you out here. Something about him and standoffs blend really well.

Jumin loves that confidence and loves your drive even more. Your determination is inspiring.

I think Jumin could stand by your side as a sort of stilt. He would be there to support you and in exchange, you would help him out as well! Where you start doubting yourself, he’ll get you right back up and probably drag you towards the goal.

it’s been a month, and I still haven’t done my Ice and Fire Con 2018 wrapup post. soooo... here goes!

This year’s Ice and Fire Con was the best year yet. It was also my busiest year, since I went from a Volunteer in 2017 to a member of the Small Council (the Master of Whispers, to be exact) for 2018.

Seriously, I was everywhere. Consistently. I don’t think I got to sit through a whole panel even!

Despite running around like a chicken with my head cut off, I made some fantastic memories that I’ll throw out under the cut:

Thursday Thursday was Day Zero of the Con this year. I started my day by having lunch with @charliechasessnitches, @poorquentyn, @kavalden and two more friends at my favorite place in Columbus before we headed to the lodge - TENSUKE!

we grabbed some groceries from the marketplace and then we all separated to make our trek down to Deer Creek Lodge, which, by the way, is stunning? Seriously. Just stunning.

While Thursday was technically day zero, we decided to throw in some programming anyway - just because. and, not to get too excited, but Drunk ASOIAF and Drinking GoT BK were the first ASOIAF/GOT programming of IAF!

It was sooo cool! AAAH. Haley Bowery (of Manimals and DGBK fame) and I did a panel called “GoTs7: The Good, the Bad, and Rhaegar’s Wig”. We basically went over our top 5 and bottom five moments of Game of Thrones season seven, while staying true to the nature of our podcasts and drinkin’. We also dressed up like skeletons, because the big Thurs party joke is always the “thirst of the first men” and everyone...... wears Skelly costumes, like the skelly tequila.

the panel was a blast, and super well received. it was just really silly fun, including a montage of Rhaegar’s wig at the end that ... had people laughing pretty hard.

Post that, there was a ~~~super secret Ice and Fire Con Musical Rehearsal~~~, albeit brief, and then lots of partying with good friends.

Friday

Friday was busy from start to end.

I woke up, I ran registration for a bit, and then got to run my favorite event of all (after watching my boyfriend get his face licked by a wolf, actually, may I add): THE SNARKS AND GRUMPKIN HUNT.

This was my second year of running Snarks, which is a photo scavenger hunt built with sabotages, bribes, and mostly just silly stuff. I heard from a weeee little bird that it’s going to evolve next year (I’m the bird) into a bigger event, and I can’t wait.

after Snarks, I had to change and get into my musical getup - but first I snagged a few minutes of the Salty Dornish panel with @ageeksaga, @poorquentyn and Moe. It was fabulous, and I was so bummed to have to sneak out to go get ready, but the musical called!

THE MUSICAL. For those that haven’t been following, @iceandfirecon did a PARODY MUSICAL of Hamilton this year, and I got to be Sansa Stark. I had two big songs, and a minor role in one - I got to sing Wait for it and That Would Be Enough.

All of those songs can be found at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN9QlVpUoJYeWHy-mhngc7g

Right after the musical, I ran karaoke for an hour with @charliechasessnitches and that was a god damn silly blast. I sang a rendition of hit me with your best shot that shooketh the room, and me, @charliechasessnitches and our friend Lydia did a reallllllly buzzed version of Schuyler sisters that had us in stitches

Post that, we all retired to the cabin parties and spent time with friends and caught up how we could, until giving in for the night.

Saturday

Saturday was, once more, a rise up, registration for a bit, and then get to work day. It was the big cosplay day for me, as I kinda kept it calm the other days - my best buddy Queued Up Cosplay and me and her partner worked on our costumes the month before super hard, and they did it as a *friendship gift* to me. they let me finally have a full house Reed cosplay.

Literally. Even my boyfriend did it.

We got a bunch of wonderful photos at the lake side, and then we went on to watch the tourney until it was so cold I had to retire indoors (the downside of Lake effect in the spring of course). Our friend Zack had me cracking up the entire time though - he entered the tourney saying he was Lommy of Ib, and would battle cry FOR IIIIIBBBBBBBB when he was in the joust. It was too good.

I got to watch Emmett do his thing with Lovecraft for a bit before running back to my room to prepare for the Performance Contest, and theeeeeeeeen came the performance contest.

I wrote a filk song, a parody of Tom Petty’s Free Fallin’ about Lyanna Stark and the Rebellion. You can find it here:

youtube

My voice was shot, I forgot half the words, but god damn, everyone gave me such a nice reaction that I almost cried! it was very good and very sweet of them.

After that, I had to go... prepare for the mock trial and get into my evening getup for the dance.

There are barely any photos of me in that outfit, but I wore a blinged out QUEEN necklace and had a corset and leggings and boots and an axe and went as ASHA QUEEN for the night, which was a blast. I even got this meme of me “droppin’ the axe” in the panel (which, may I add, I got to portray a criminal defense lawyer, and had to defend HBO/D&D/GOT........... oh god, that sucked)

After that, I kind of realized all of the exhaustion and stress of the weekend was getting to me, and I ended up being the worst and staying in for most of the night. I just couldn’t do more, I had pushed myself to the limit unfortunately, but it was still the best weekend, even with missing out on that Saturday.

Shouts to @buskerlenny - getting to spend quality time with her was amazing. And shouts to @sanrixian, who wouldn’t let me spend the money I wanted to spend at her vendor booth, but got the coolest con swag out of in general! To @wendynerdwrites, of course, getting to see her was lovely, and of course a shout to the majestic, lovely @nobodysuspectsthebutterfly, because we actually got to chat a bit here and there this year, and her WEIRWOOD COSTUME WAS SO AMAZING!!!!

AND A SPECIAL SPECIAL SHOUT to my girls in advertising that helped me all year - Bekah, Meghan, Kat, the best <3

another amazing year, and I can’t possibly wait until next year.

#asoiaf #ice and fire con #asoiaf cosplay #ice and fire con 2018 #game of thrones #i'm sure i missed people i'm sorry i didn't mean to it was such a crazy weekend i love you all

a summer to remember

hello friends, i definitely just abandoned this whole blog, now didn't i

well i am happy to report that i am still alive, and am thriving!

Here's a rundown of everything that has been going on:

[inserting a readmore because this is long af]

May

So in May, I was definitely just all over the place because I was 1) trying to finish a paper published in a conference!! it literally drove me insane. anyways, then i had to go and finish a 78 page thesis, which involved a really convoluted timeline because i had to finish it ~ a week before the actual deadline so my PI could read it over, but then i had to finish it a few days before THAT so my PhD supervisors could read it over, which meant that i had like one (1) week to write like. all of it.

Luckily I had most of the first half already written, during whatever shitshow April was (April was a lot of coding for the paper, and then not having time to write my thesis). But THEN i had to organize all the data from my own personal experiments, make figures, and draft the entire results section. AND i had like two final reports to do for my class, so my last weeks of academia looked like....

Of course, the day before my thesis was due, I pulled an all nighter, because, of course. What other way would I ever end my academic career. Submitted it though, and I graduated! [LINK TO MY THESIS]

Also! I got vaccinated and felt like death for a whole day, but then my friend came over and we ate fried chicken and watched this show called Miraculous, which is a kids show from France, but for some reason is actually hilarious and really entertaining. Then I felt better, so I proceeded to work on my thesis.

Also, I guess I should talk a little bit about the class I took this semester, which was an industrial organization economics class. We looked at things like how different markets are organized, why they are that way, what market concentration means, how mergers affect competition, and what kind of effect that may impose on consumers. For the final case study (which, I will say, I wrote like 2000 words in a single day, so . applause for me), I looked at the Nvidia-ARM merger and how that may or may not affect competition in the GPU market, the CPU market, and the mobile chip market. I think my analysis was a little bit more surface level, which was fine for me, since I'm by no means an economics expert or even remotely should have any expectations at all, but I read a lot and learned a lot and that's the goal!

So yes, my brief excursion into the field of economics was overall positive, I feel like I learned a lot and now I can read financial articles about the tech industry and not be completely lost, which, again, was the goal.

But yes, May was a lot of work, and once it wrapped up, I got to spend a lot of time with friends post-vaccination! After the 1 or 2 week mark after my second dose, I started going back to the gym, especially to play basketball with folks, which I had missed a lot. I spent a lot of time at my old dorm just hanging out, and got to have a cute salmon dinner over at my other friend's place. And we made cheesecake too.

June (MA->NY->MA->CA)

I finally went to visit my best friend in New York. I hadn't seen her in > 400 days, so it was really a very anticipated event, except we saw each other across the crosswalk, but then the light took like five minutes to turn green, so it was really anticlimactic. Anyways, we ended up bumming around New York and Long Island for a week, and it was nice to spend some time with her after such a long gap.

We spent a day at a vineyard and I fell asleep so

After getting back to Boston, my mom came back from Taiwan to help me move out of my apartment. It was a lot of finding people to sell things to, sweating because it was very hot that week, and praying everything would work out (it did). I also got to have a few final meals with various friends and my mom and I got to take one last lark down the Infinite, which I was really grateful for because it was the first time visitors got to go inside campus in over a year.

Also got into my school's MBA program! Yes i applied to a deferred program (which is like you get into a program, but you don't have to go for 2-5 years, as a way of getting in right after undergrad/grad school, but then accumulating some work experience first). It was hilarious, I was literally shopping in my campus store for a new sweatshirt and I got a phone call from the admissions office saying I got in. My mom had been pushing me to apply to grad programs, and I didn't tell her about it because I didn't know if I would actually follow through. But I got to surprise her with the news, and she was so happy she did the whole "calling all the relatives" thing again.

After flying home, I told myself I'd read more and exercise more, which I have been doing. I got a membership at Planet Fitness, which has been really good for me (going 3x a week), and I've made my way through at least 5 books this summer so far. My holds list at my local library is literally insane. (For recs, I recently read Normal People, which I absolutely devoured, and In the Dream House, which hit really hard for me.)

This summer was also really about reconnecting with high school friends. All three of us were unemployed, with plans to come in the fall, so we were all free to hang out all the time. We started out at the local library planning out a road trip, and we worked out a few times together, and a few coffee dates too. We took a fun day trip down to LA one day, and we visited Malibu, went to the Getty, hit up some local food places in the city. Driving down the PCH with Taylor Swift blaring and the windows down on a hot June day, just hits so different. There is nothing like it.

My friend's birthday was in June, so we put together a little video for her and bought some jewelry, and had a Zoom call to celebrate. Then I got BBQ with some friends and sat in the parking lot eating ice cream until 11 at night just trading stories from our pasts. It felt like the perfect summer life, just staying out until whenever, grabbing food wherever we wanted, with friends I had had for literally a whole decade.

It was already a really good summer, but then July. July was crazy.

July (CA -> MI -> CA -> NV -> CA -> WA -> OR -> CA)

So one Sunday morning, I woke up to a text

Actually, I'm going to do a separate post on the whole Michigan trip because that sh** was on another level of spontaneous, impulsive, crazy life stuff. But anyways, so July started off with a trip to Michigan to visit my friends, and then I came back for the 4th, had 36 hours of rest before my high school friends and I went on a road trip.

This road trip was a little ambitious. We hit spots all up California, from hiking in Sequoia Nat'l Park to Kings Canyon, driving up to Sacramento and visiting art museums, and then going up to Tahoe but staying in Nevada, going kayaking and hiking and sitting on the beach for hours. It was reallllllly hot, but luckily I don't think it ever broke 90 degrees. The views were beautiful, especially at Kings Canyon. The drive in, you're surrounded by huge rock walls, with a thin river rushing by next to you. The hike itself literally feels like you're in nature, like the trail is somewhat defined but not paved, there are no sounds of traffic, the path isn't heavily trafficked so we were the only ones there for the most part. We even saw a deer and washed our faces in the river. Throughout the whole thing, we climbed into so many waterfalls, trying not to slip on rocks.

I hadn't been to Sacramento in over a decade, but it was a cute day trip. There isn't a ton to do there, but it was a nice reprieve from the constant driving and nature. We visited the Leland Stanford Mansion, the Crocker Art Museum, and Old Town Sacramento. A good chance to get a nice coffee, a sit-down meal, and some air conditioning. At Tahoe, we went kayaking on Pope Beach, with the clearest water I have ever seen, followed up by a hike up to a beautiful view of the Lake.

On our way back, we stopped at a lot of interesting places, like small towns like Lee Vining, where we found an Upside Down House; Manzanar, the site of an old Japanese internment camp during the WWII era (which also hit hard); and Randsburg, a literal living ghost town. Overall, getting to travel with my friends finally was so fun, they were so much fun to be around for five days, and getting to explore so much of California was so fun - even though I'd been here for so long, I never knew these places existed.

So I came back and had around 48 hours to recover before my mom and I took a trip up to the Pacific Northwest!

I've always wanted to visit Seattle, and figured I'd hit Portland on the way too. We originally wanted to go to Hawaii but it got so expensive by the middle of the summer, so we decided to stay a little closer to home (probs the better decision bc I was already so tired by this point).

Seattle! Got to visit Pike Place Market many times, grab some coffee at the original Starbucks, see Mt. Rainier, and grab food with three friends! Also went to Bainbridge Island for a day which was SO cute - got to do an olive oil/balsamic vinegar tasting, which sounds so extra, but is actually really unexpectedly fun. At Starbs, I did a cold brew flight, which resulted in a rough night of tossing and turning for me, but I think it was worth it. Other things included the Pinball Museum, Space Needle, and Chihuly Glass Museum!

So I lowkey really wanted to visit Portland because I wanted to achieve a long-lasting dream of seeing an NWSL game in person. So I went to the Thorns Pride game!!

The Thorns fanbase is actually insane, I cannot express to you, like there's this whole fan section that actually did synchronized cheers and routines and was actually ROARING when they scored the entire game. I swear the audience was actually watching them at points instead of the match. Overall, the stadium was going crazy, like I thought I was at a tied Celtics-Bucks game with how loud it was in there. Also I swear, Ali Krieger made eye contact with me and waved.

In addition to that, Portland also has a huge rose garden, a nice Japanese tea garden, a lot of good donut stores and a huge bookstore, so all very up my alley. We also took a day trip to see Mt. Hood and more waterfalls!!

That's a summary of the SEA - PDX trip. Once I got home, my high school friends and I did not waste any time on reuniting to hang out - we went and played ball, grabbed lunch, and then coffee, and then did the same exact thing like two days later and watched a bunch of TikToks, and then spent a whole day at the beach to send my good friend off to medical school in Arizona. They somehow convinced me to go in the water and I got body checked by a wave.

Saw this sculpture on the beach and teared up a little

So proud of my friends for making it to med school, I am so excited to see them at their white coat ceremonies and beyond, I swear I will cry at every step of the way I'm so happy for them. Now that July is pretty much over, most of my fun summer plans are too, and I finally get a chance to catch my breath from that busy busy month. Spending a lot of time watching the Olympics and trying to muster up the motivation to start a fulltime job in < 1 month!!

Overall, I feel like I've been having a really solid summer given the year that was the covid year. I had a Lot of fun, literally probably two summers worth of fun consolidated into one. I think in the beginning of the year, I really wanted this summer to be good, and I didn't have a lot of set plans for the summer, even by the end of May. But somehow, things came together, like Really together, and I had the best summer of my life in this summer 2021. On top of that, I'm reading more than I have since probably middle school, I feel the most in shape that I ever have, I can DRIVE NOW. Only thing that would've made it better was if I got to go back to Taiwan to visit the fam, but unfortunately I can't go back because of strict travel restrictions there and they had a COVID outbreak too :/ I still got around 3.5 weeks of summer to go, so we'll see how the rest goes :)

Nurarihyon no Mago Character CD Series #3: <Special Drama> Cure Your Fears! (怖がりをなおせ!, kowagari o naose!)

Summary: Yura decides to help Kana conquer her fear of youkai. Will she succeed?

Translation was a commission done by @kairosity!

Translation below.

Special drama: Lose your fear!

(school bell rings) Kana: Ah, Yura-chan. Yura: Eek! Kana: Eh? Yura-chan…? Yura: I------Ienaga-san! Kana: What’s wrong? Why do you sound so scared… Yura: Eeeeeek! Kana: Yura-chan… Is it because of yesterday, at the bathhouse? Yura: I-I-I-Ienaga-san! Kana: Uhm, it looks like you’ve got the wrong idea, but yesterday was – it’s not what you’re thinking – Yura: Ienaga-san! Kana: What! What’s wrong! Why are you suddenly holding onto my hand? Yura: Over here! Kana: Ehhhh? Wait, Yura-chan…!?!?

(door slams) Yura: Haaa… I don’t think anyone will bother us over here. Kana: Uhm…Yura-chan? Why are we on the roof? Yura: Ienaga-san! Kana: Uh! Yes! Yura: I…was thinking about it by myself, after that. About your feelings. Kana: Like I said, that was – Yura: And so, you know? I’ve…decided. Kana: Eh? On what? …Eh? Don’t tell me you took what I said seriously? And when you say you’ve decided, you mean…!? That you’d…!? Go out with…!?!? Yura: Ienaga-san! Kana: Eek! Yura: I’m sorry! Kana: Sorry! I didn’t mean to say that yesterday at – wait, you’re sorry? Yura: I can’t reciprocate your feelings. So I’d like us to keep on being friends… Can we? Kana: Eh? That’s… It’s fine! We’re friends, you and I! Frie-n-ds! Yura: I’m sorry, Ienaga-san. It’s like I’ve stomped all over your heart just as you found love… Kana: No, not really… Yura: So, y’know? I wanna make it up to you! Kana: Uh? You do? Yura: You get attacked by youkai a lot, right? I’ll come save you if anything happens, of course, but maybe I won’t be able to reach you right away. In those cases, the scariest thing is – if you panic. Kana: Ah. …? Yura: Those who end up in a panic state and lose their composure – that’s the scariest. They forget to run away, even, and are gobbled up by youkai in one chomp! That kinda thing is definitely not outta the question. Kana: Really…? Yura: But here lies your critical weakness! Which is…how you’re really not good with youkai! Kana: Eh? Yura: Well, you’ve been attacked by youkai many times, so it’s understandable… But in that critical moment, you mustn’t quiver in fear like a newborn fawn! To protect yourself, you must be strong of heart! Kana: Uh…yeah, I guess that’s true… Yura: And so, I’ll have you go through special training! Kana: Special training? Yura: Yes. You’re going to increase your mental fortitude so that you won’t fall into a panic no matter what youkai you encounter! Kana: Uhm…that’s really considerate of you, but exactly what will we – Yura: Scary stories. Kana: Eh!? (spooky traditional music plays) Yura: I’m going to make you listen to a scary story… That’ll increase your mental fortitude come whatever may, no? And thus…heheheheh… Kana: You’re already plenty scary, Yura-chan! Yura: But this is just me trying to make up for how I enslaved your heart at the very least! Kana: Haa… Yura: So anyway, I’m going to start now, okay? Kana: Eh!?!? …Are you really going to tell scary stories… Yura: Of course! They’re going to be reallllllly scary, so prepare yourself! Kana: Oh no………… Yura: This, you know, is a story from when I’d just become an onmyouji. Kana: Wahhh…she’s started… Yura: In my neighborhood, there was a dog with mottled black and white speckled fur named Buchi. And that little dog looked oh so very cute. I always saw it and thought, how very cute! However, one day…that terrible incident happened. Kana: Eek…! Yura: I had something to do at school and got home a little late ‘cause of that. The sun had long set; the road pitch black. There was hardly a person out there. And I had this thought. If anything were to happen right now, not a single soul would know. Kana: Like…? Yura: And so? After some time, I could see the light from my house. I’d finally gotten home… When I thought that with a sigh of relief… Right then… Kana: I can’t take this any more… Just what happened… Yura: Hwaaaaaaaaaa! Kana: Uwa!!! Yura: There was a howl. A dog’s howl. Buchi’s. Kana: He howled, and then…? Yura: (back to her normal bright voice) Ahhh, I was really surprised! I mean, it was so sudden, and in such a dark place. Kana: Uh…ah… Yura: Man, was I real scared, though… Kana: Eh – is that…the end of the story? Yura: Yeah. That’s my scary story. How was it? Scary, right? Kana: Uh, uhm… Yura: Howwwww was it, Ienaga-san? Kana: Uhm…I guess there are two things I can say… Yura: What are they? Kana: First, isn’t that more of a surprised story than a scary story? Yura: Ooh… Kana: And the other thing would be – it’s a story about how you yourself had felt in that situation, right? To be honest, how to say…it’s not quite clicking with me… Yura: Ooooh… All right! Enough with these dull stories! I’m going to go with a real, all-out scary one! Kana: Ehh! Hey, no more! (scary music plays again) Yura: This, too, is a story from when I’d just become an onmyouji. Of youkai wandering through the town and doing bad things… Kana: Uwa… Oh no, this one’s really a youkai story… Yura: I was running towards an area where youkai were acting up. When I got there, I found that the youkai were doing those bad things to a house of normal people who had done no wrong. Kana: What do you mean by…bad things…? Yura: Stealing the persimmons that had just ripened from the tree… Drawing on the walls… Kana: Eh? Yura: And breaking a window with a ball… Kana: …A youkai did? …With a ball? Yura: Oh, I stopped ‘em right away, y’know? I just kind of went rawr!! at them, and scared them off. Kana: …Er, I see. Yura: How was it? Scary? Kana: Eh? Yura: I want to tell youkai stories! This one’s way scarier than the last one, yeah? Kana: Uh…well…… Yura: Give me your honest opinion, Ienaga-san! Was it so scary that it made your hair stand on end? Kana: Well, if I had to say it…not at all… Yura: Ehhh!?!? Why? Kana: Even if you ask me that… Yura: Could it be that you’ve already gotten over your fear of youkai? Kana: No, it’s not that… Your stories just aren’t scary at all, Yura-chan. Yura: But I’m telling stories about youkai… Kana: They are about youkai, but you already got rid of them all. So these youkai in question aren’t scary at all, I guess… Yura: Hnnnngh… You’re a difficult one, Ienaga-san…! Kana: Am I? Yura: Then, how about this story! It’s not something I experienced, okay? It’s a seriously scary story told since times of old! Kana: Uh huh… Yura: Somewhere, there was a man who said that he was afraid of nothing. But his friends wanted to give him a scare no matter what, and asked him if there was really nothing that he was afraid of. And then, he said this: “There’s only one thing. Manju!” Kana: Er – Yura: So when he was at home, his friends threw a ton of manju into his house. “Now then, he’ll scream and rush out of the house!” they thought, and so waited outside. But no screams came no matter how long they did. Thinking this strange, they peered inside, only to find…that their friend, who should have been afraid of manju, was instead eating ‘em with gusto! And when the man realized his friends had noticed, he said this. “I’m also afraid of hot tea, by the way.” Kana: Ah, I thought so. Yura: So how the story works is, the man lied about being afraid of manju so that he could get a ton of them, which he actually loves by the way, from his friends trying to pull a prank on him and – Kana: No, you don’t need to explain it. Besides, that’s not a scary story. It’s more like a funny story, wouldn’t you say? Yura: Ah… Just when did I stray down the wrong road… Kana: Haha…I wonder… Yura: Wahh, I messed up! If I can’t tell a story that actually scares you…! Kana: Uhm, Yura-chan. You don’t have to force yourself… Yura: No! I decided to scare the livin’ daylights out of you! To beat out every last bit of fear in you! Kana: Eh, wait, this is going in a weird direction! Yura: Now that it’s come to this… You’re gonna be spending a whole lotta time with me! All right? All right!? Kana: …Yura-chan right now is the scariest one of all…

Okay. Let’s talk Yumi and Atumu interactions. for @syntaxeme

Lemme pull up the tags that I had previously to works as like... talking points... hahahahah.

#he is really fucking good vision #I know I've said as a blanket rule that he has REALLLLLLLY heightened senses #but I may not have mentioned to what degree #he doesn't realise it but Yumi knows #so whenever they are looking for something #Yumi always asks him what he sees #and he's always kind of confused bc he doesn't realise not everyone can see what he sees #but he faithfully relays the information anyway #tbh Yumi is probably one of the only people who know how to navigate Atumu #think of Atumu as a superpowered computer that has too many functions #and you have to figure out how to use it

#Yumi is a very NORMAL person #which is hilarious considering he's a clone and thus not..... #technically.... #a real person #but anyhow Yumi is probably the most sensible of the group #and he's the only one who realises really what the fuck is up with Atumu #so he kind of.. manages Atumu #he's not blameless tho #which is what lead to the Yami vs Yami court trial that Atumu barely survived #because Yumi is doing his own thing and Atumu felt betrayed and couldn't comprehend it

Okay, so we’ve established that Atumu has some crazy senses and abilities. He is stronger than any normal human being (think strength to body weight ratio of like.. an insect) and has extremely heightened senses like the ability to see farther and in extremely high detail things from a distance. He also has wild language abilities that i have discussed earlier (re: he basically knows all spoken languages and can communicate fluently in all of them as long as he hears it).

Yumi is probably the only person who has picked up on all of these. (I mean, Atemu is probably also aware, but it’s just Atumu - that’s just how he is.) So Yumi has figured out tips tricks and hax to be able to utilise Atumu’s skills and basically “manage” him.

If they’re trapped in the middle of a desert, Yumi might ask Atumu to scan the horizon (knowing full well Atumu can see farther than any normal human), and ask what he sees. Atumu will faithfully do this for Yumi, of course - it’s a strange query, but eh, who is he to question? If there is a town off in the horizon outside of the range of normal vision, Atumu’s eyesight would be good enough to read signs on buildings, etc. Same with if they’re stuck in the middle of the ocean or whatnot. Atumu would be able to direct them to the nearest land mass. Very useful to know - in terms of survival I guess.

As for languages, Yumi is also perhaps the only one who has picked up on Atumu’s weird language quirk. As I’ve mentioned earlier, if he ever catches Atumu speaking another language, he’ll just clear this throat and say “Sorry was that?” or “Say that again?” and Atumu will repeat his message but in Yumi’s spoken language. Atumu can’t really... translate.... because he doesn’t realise he is switching languages at all. That said, he also can’t comprehend that not everyone can understand everything like he does... This leads to a lot of frustration (believe me, Yumi was frustrated too before he discovered a workaround).

So. Yumi is like the “normal” foil to Atumu’s weird. Whereas Atumu finds it very difficult to adjust to any situation he is in, Yumi picks up social cues like a chameleon and can bullshit his way in any situation. Atumu... just kind of flounders and does his own thing. He sticks out like a sore thumb and it is just horribly obvious that he doesn’t belong.

How they relate to Atemu is the other thing. Atumu is eternally bound to his little brother. Atemu is his life and his meaning and he would die for Atemu in a heartbeat. (Yumi would probably also die for both of them but like ... he wouldn’t throw himself in front of a train for them. He’d try to think of another solution so he wouldn’t HAVE to die for them...) Atemu is the only thing that really gives Atumu’s life meaning or purpose and Atemu’s safety and happiness is all that matters to him at all. Yumi... would like a normal life. He’d like to settle down and meet someone nice and just.. live out the rest of his life.. normally. Without the hijinks. He tries not to put up with Atemu’s bullshit, but he kind of has to (Atemu can’t help it), and he’s annoyed that Atumu not only puts up with Atemu’s bullshit but panders to him.

He’s a softly paternal figure and sometimes he has to lay down the tough love. He, like Atumu, has a strong sense of justice. However, how they go about it is ofc very different. In the case of Yami v Yami (court trial), Atumu had been the ousted CFO of a dirty pharmaceutical company that was distributing fake drugs. Upon realising the situation he was in, he promised that the company would settle all accounts of claims -- which the company ofc did not want to do, so they promptly got rid of him since he was not in his right mind and was not representing them in their best interests. He proceeded to pick up a case pro bono for one of the spouses of a victim of the drug company poisoning, to set a precedent and allow all other victims of the fake drugs to be able to be compensated.

Yumi, on the other hand, was the head of his own law firm, and was renowned for never having lost a case -- though he always defended “obviously guilty” parties. It helps, ofc, that the jury was bought, but he was also a very good lawyer. Upon understanding the situation, he decided to take the case and defend the pharmaceutical company against Atumu’s prosecution.

I’m not gonna go into the details of the trial, but by the time the court date came, most of the jury had been bought out already and Atumu was not in good physical health. Atumu had a very factually sound case, but Yumi undermined him with cheap tricks and legal loopholes. No one in the courtroom really took Atumu seriously anyway, and he ended up losing (perhaps unsurprisingly). He felt confused, isolated, and betrayed that Yumi would do such a thing ? Deliberately saying things that weren’t true and seemingly undermining justice and he just.. felt so hurt and betrayed. But Yumi had a plan -- after winning the case, he personally settled each of the claims with money from his own savings (mind you he was in a position of tremendous wealth, esp after being paid by PharmaTech for this trial). So “justice” was sort of served anyway -- Yumi just chose a different route to take. He worked within the system, defending PharmaTech, but made sure all hurt families ended up compensated. Atumu [lost..] but he was trying to secure justice for the families that had been wronged.

HooOOooooooooo catch me talking about Yami v Yami any day tho *clenches fist*

Um anyhow. That’s perhaps it for now. I can talk about Yumi at some other point tho too ^_^;;;;;;;

#Yumi is not my character #he's my sister's #So I can't really do shit with him but like.. I generally know how he'd react or behave in a situation #generally #anyhow......#Yami v Yami #Life Story #SARA THIS IS FOR YOU #Yumi #he gets a tag now

Human 101

Part 1 of 2

Several humorous short stories with the gods spending time with MC on Earth and encountering something that only humans have.

Rating (M)

Warning: Sexual Content

Leon

I was so excited that Leon had finally agreed to a date here on Earth that I couldn't decide where to take him. It would probably be best to go somewhere with fewer people seeing as he wasn't exactly fond of humans in the first place. As I wracked my brain trying to come up with something a voice close to my ear made me jump nearly out of my skin.

"You certainly look like your thinking hard goldfish. It had better only be about how your going to please me while I'm here." There was a time I would have found everything he said to me to be offensive. Not anymore, I knew how to read between the lines.

"Actually I was thinking of where to go for our date but you got here early so...."

"So forget the date and lets skip to the good part." He teased as his fingers pulled up along my thighs.

"Leon cut it out! You can't...touch me right now." My cheeks began to burn.

"Oh-ho! Telling me what I can do was brazen enough but now you want to tell me what I can't do? Enough of this." He snapped his fingers and one by one the buttons on my blouse came undone. 'Not this again.'

"Seriously! Quit it. I can't right now okay? Do I have to spell it out for you?" He stared at me dumbfounded.

"And just why can't I touch my girl all of the sudden?" He looked angry but I could also see a bit of hurt in his eyes. 'Does he seriously not know about this stuff?' Sighing I decide to redirect the conversation for the time being. Approaching him I pushed him back onto my bed playfully.

"How about I touch you instead." I teased seductively. The surprise lasted but a moment and he was back to his usual self smiling at me with that knowing grin.

"That's more like it. I'm glad to see you come to your senses." He snickered comfortably resting both hands behind his head. It was the first time I had ever initiated something sexual between us and as excited as I was to see that desire burning in his eyes I was also slightly bitter that we couldn't go much further than that for the time being. Sensing something weighing on me he stopped me as I began to unbuckle his belt.

"Stop." He commanded firmly but his look was gentle and full of concern.

"Seriously, what's up? We really don't have to fuck if you don't want to." Blatant as always he offered sweetly making me more frustrated. 'He seriously thinks it's because I don't want to have sex with him...'

"Can we-just not talk about this right now. I was really looking forward to going out with you tonight." My eyes pleading with him seemed to temporarily ease the conversation. After sighing he smiled his signature Leon grin.

"Sure. Whatever you want goldfish." I knew this wasn't the end of our conversation but at least we could save the embarrassing part till after the date. Smiling happily I decided I would take him to this really amazing Italian restaurant that was well known for their meatballs. As we got ready to leave I asked him to hold my clutch while sliding into my heels and fastening the buckles on the side.

"You humans sure are ridiculous carrying all your stuff with you." He teased knowing full well we had little choice seeing as unlike him we couldn't just snap our fingers and procure whatever it was we needed at that moment. As I slid the other shoe on he started peeking through my stuff inside. I guess curiosity got the better of him. It was kind of cute watching him thoroughly inspect each item trying to understand it's purpose. Lipstick, keys, wallet, a tiny barrette in case I needed to pull my hair back. Unfortunately it slipped my mind about the last item in there and as he inspected it his brows furrowed.

"What's this?" He asked genuinely clueless. Guess I wasn't getting out of this conversation so easily after all. I started to feel self conscious worrying that he may find me disgusting after explaining it to him.

"It's called a tampon."

"Yeah? And what's it for?" I sighed trying to think of how to word everything.

"Before I answer let me ask you a question. How are gods born in the heavens?" His expression shifted into one of annoyance.

"Who cares? It's probably not that different than it is here." His tone was flat and that of disinterest.

"What does any of that have to do with this?" He brandished the still thankfully wrapped tampon between his long fingers.

"Sooo....do goddesses get their periods in the heavens?" I asked nonchalantly. His eyebrow arched showing there was a spark of interest now budding in him.

"What the hell is a period?" 'Oh sweet heavens do I seriously have to have the birds and bees talk with Leon?!'

"It's what happens once a month to a woman through childbearing years, she bleeds for about a week but then it stops and goes away." An amused grin spreads across his face as I explain things to him.

"I've never heard of something messed up like that. In my infinite time of existence I have never known of a goddess that bleeds for a week. Where exactly do you bleed for that amount of time?" /facepalm. 'Seriously? Fuck my life this is too embarrassing!' Growing frustrated as the heat spreads from my cheeks to my ears I glare at him angrily.

"What's with that scary face all the sudden? Did I ask you something weird?" His voice may have sounded innocent but his expression clearly showed how much he was enjoying making me uncomfortable.

"Well? Where's your answer." He demanded still smiling. I was pretty sure my temper was about to get the best of me knowing he was purposely toying with me but I took a deep breath to center myself before answering his ridiculous question.

"Gee Leon, where do you think? Do babies come out of a goddess' vagina like they do here?" His smiled widened chuckling to himself.

"Pffft, how the hell should I know? Does it look like I have a vagina?" 'UGH! Seriously! You stubborn little..'

"Why are we talking about babies all of the sudden? Or is it you want me to put one in you?" His egotistical confidence was just utterly absurd.

"Ugggh! You just reallllllly want me to say it don't you?" I threw at him, my eyebrows knit tightly together.

"Say what? That you want me to fuck a baby into you?" He teased further darkening the shade of red already dominating my face. Finally having had my fill of being teased I pointed at the tampon packaged in his hand.

"You wanna know so badly? Open it." I said sternly as he continued to snicker at my frustration. He pulled the wrapper away and stared at the pink plastic in confusion. After fiddling with it a minute he figures out how it works and only grows deeply confused as the rod of cotton pushes it's way out.

"Seriously? What the fuck is this thing?" Watching him with that expression was too cute and I accidentally giggled. He shot me an annoyed expression for not answering his question.

"I told you, it's called a tampon. When a human woman gets her period she uses that to soak up the blood so it doesn't get everywhere." I say coolly donning a calm expression. I can tell some of what I'm saying registers but he still hasn't pieced it all together.

"You asked me where we bleed from, well think about it. Why did I turn you down earlier when you wanted to have sex?" As he considers the question I watch as the connection is made, his eyes going wide.

"You goldfish really are weird. I've never heard of such a thing as a woman bleeding from her vagina for a week straight. That sounds like a twisted ass punishment from one of those nut jobs in that ridiculous department." Growing tired of the subject I look at him in such a way as to let him know I have had enough of this subject for the evening.

"So I take it that's why you turned me down earlier. You're having a period or whatever?" Still embarrassed all I can do is nod trying not to make eye contact.

"Heh, it's fine. I can wait." Surprised at his words I stare at him in amazement.

"You will?"

"Pffft sure thing. A week feels like a second to a god. Plus I get to look forward to putting a baby in you when you're finished." Blushing deeply I hide my face in my hands. I still don't think he fully understands how this whole thing works.

Scorpio

Though I knew it was the very last place he'd rather be Scorpio had decided to spend the day with me on Earth much to his discomfort. I hadn't asked him to but seeing how absolutely excited I was when he suggested it as an idea, he didn't have it in him to turn me down. He had demanded we stay at my apartment not wanting anything to do with humans especially if there was a chance of being accidentally touched by one.

"Seriously. Human's are disgusting." He grumbled watching them as they passed by on the street below from my window. Trying not to laugh I finished the dishes before hanging my apron for the day.

"All the preparations for dinner are finished." I smiled happily as I approached him. He gave me a quick once over before frowning.

"You realize you are filthy right?" 'Ugh! Such a mood killer I swear.'

"And you realize you're words are harsh right? Must you always be so critical of me?" I frowned slumping into my couch knowing full well he would lose it if I touched him before showering. They have a name for people like this on Earth but there was no way in hell I was going to tell him that! He could be impossibly frightening at times.

"Pffft, if you wanted to be sweet talked you should have chosen Lou."

"What? Hey you're being extra nasty today you know." I couldn't help but chastise him a bit, after all he sometimes hurt my feelings with his crude way of speaking. He glanced over at me before smirking.

"You are filthy, but how about I give you a bath and show you just how nasty I can be." I could tell my face was bright red just by how hot it felt. He always catches me off guard when he says stuff like that. I have to admit though, it's really sexy. Deciding to play along I smile at him before nodding.

"Okay then, shall we?" I teased seeing if he would actually go through with it and to my surprise he gestured to head toward the bathroom. I couldn't help but feel a little giddy at the thought of him actually bathing me. As we entered my tiny bathroom I felt grateful I had cleaned it the night before. Looking inside the tub Scorpio suddenly went rigid. 'Ugh....now what.'

"I can't bathe you in this, it's-" I cut him off my anger getting the better of me.

"Let me guess?! Filthy!" He turned and stared at me incredulously. Rolling his eyes he raised his hand getting ready to snap when I had an idea.

"No! Don't. I've had it with your crazy obsession of cleanliness. We humans aren't THAT dirty! But since you are sooooo determined to make a spectacle of it how about you get a better understanding of what it takes to keep things clean up to your standards!" Unable to respond for once I decided to explain.

"You forget we don't have the luxury of snapping our way to perfect cleanliness. Everything we do is with our own hands and hard work! So guess what? YOU are going to help me clean this bathroom the human way till it passes your high standards." His expression relaxed and he tried to stifle a laugh.

"Don't you dare laugh!" I shouted at him. That apparently was all it took to break him. I wanted to be so angry but hearing Scorpio laugh? I was pretty sure hell just froze over. I couldn't help but laugh along with him.

"Damn woman you have quite a temper." He teased causing me to narrow my eyes before responding.

"Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?" He smiled looking somehow impressed at my abnormal boldness today.

"Sassing me is only going to worsen your punishment later." That naughty smile of his set me on fire inspiring an idea I would NEVER normally do but hey, go big or go home right? Giving him a seductive smile I dropped all of my clothing at my feet standing before him as naked as the day I was born. His cheeks instantly flushed and I couldn't help but giggle.

"I thought we were going to clean the bathroom" he said gruffly trying not to look embarrassed. It was too adorable seeing him all pouty like this.

"Oh we are! Besides, I didn't think you would dare touch me while I'm this dirty." I shot him a confident smile antagonizing him further. He opened his mouth about to say something but immediately closed it looking defeated.

We began scrubbing the tub together shoulder to shoulder as Scorpio tried to hide his adorably pink cheeks. He hadn't said two words to me but he did everything I asked him to do as we cleaned. I'm sure his silence was partially due to the fact that I was still in my birthday suit acting as if nothing out of the ordinary was happening. This was just too much fun though I knew I was going to pay for it later. 'Worth it.'Besides he looked so damn sexy doing hard labor that I could barely keep my mind out of the gutter staring at his perfect godly form. He accidentally bumped into me due to the ridiculously small size of my bathroom bringing me out of my daydream.

"Dammit stupid woman! Keep those thoughts to yourself..." Realizing what I was thinking about when we bumped I couldn't help but giggle as his cheeks were even darker than before.

"Awwww, but you really would look good in nothing but my apron." I teased thoroughly savoring every moment of this.

Dui

His eyes were wide staring at the pristine snow covered scenery in front of him. My heart warmed at his child-like surprise and I couldn't help but giggle.

"Wow. I still can't believe you have never seen snow before." I teased though still smiling warmly. He smiled sweetly taking my hand in his and I couldn't help it that my heart started racing. Everything was so beautiful and seeing Dui's perfect features accented by his surroundings made it all seem so surreal.

"Well technically I have seen it but only in the reflecting pools, never in person. I had no idea how much I was missing not experiencing it first hand. Thank you so much for bringing me here." My heart swelled at that perfect smile and I rested my head on his shoulder as we watched the snow softly falling all around us. I wish this moment could last forever.

Dui kicked the snow around with his foot amused as it tumbled about. Chuckling to myself I grabbed a handful before returning it to the ground and rolling it in front of me. The snow was the perfect texture allowing me to create a huge ball in no time. Looking back Dui was just standing there eyes wide with surprise at the creation at my feet.

"Well aren't you gonna help me?" I said playfully and he sauntered over resting his bare hand against the enormous boulder sized snowball nearly high as our waists. He quickly withdrew his hand looking at me with concern.

"It's so cold. How can you stand touching it?" His eyes shifted to my hands and seeing that my skin had turned slightly red from it snapped his fingers. Beautiful thick warm gloves surrounded my icy hands bringing some relief almost instantly. I noticed upon looking up that he was now donning his own pair but still seemed very apprehensive of touching the snow.

"What exactly do you plan on doing with this?" He asked curiously.

"I wanted you to help me build a snowman." I offered but his expression suddenly changed.

"A snow man?" He stared at me in wonder and awe. 'Huh? Is it really that strange?'

"I had no idea you were capable of such a thing. Are all human able to do this?"

"Y-yeah? It's really quite common actually." Watching him trying to process everything I knew something was bothering him.

"Dui?"

"What do you do with them once they are created?" My brows furrowed in confusion not really understanding his rather odd question.

"Do? Nothing really. They are just fun to make and than look at." I offered matter-of-factly.

"What happens after that?" concern still poured from his innocent face, a worried frown making him look strangely adorable somehow.

"What do you mean? Umm...I don't know, younger kids often knock em over or they melt in the sunlight." Dui's face twists into an expression of horror and it's then that I finally realize he completely misunderstood.

"N-No Dui! Please don't worry, they aren't actually real men or anything." I try to explain hoping that expression relaxes before someone else makes an appearance.

"Wow, I knew you humans were sick and twisted but this is just on a whole other level." The sadistic smile on his face immediately told me I was now dealing with Shadow Dui. Thank goodness he doesn't actually want to kill me anymore. This could have ended ugly.

"It's not like that, cut it out." I snapped harshly at him but he only smiled further in response.

"You sure are sassy today, does this environment inspire boldness?" I knew he was teasing but it still made me edgy. Shadow Dui was a completely different person than Dui. My expression must have alerted him to my sudden discomfort.

"Heh, do I really make you that nervous?" His grin was slightly sadistic but I knew there was genuine concern behind his words. He words may be harsh and actions bold but even shadow Dui had a fondness for me that he presented in his own way. I decided to have a little fun and see how shadow Dui responded to snow and the cold. Not making eye contact I casually picked up a handful of snow and began packing it into a ball. Meeting his gaze I gave him my best mischievous grin before striking up conversation.

"Do you like the snow and cold Dui?" He continued smiling but he arched an eyebrow in suspicion. It was really hard to fool this version of Dui. He knew how to read everything.

"Never mind that, I want to know what you think you're about to pull here. I hope it's something worthy of punishing you for." His smile only widened and was now tinged with sexual implications. I couldn't stifle the giggle that unexpectedly escaped my mouth as I looked at him with my best poker face.

"Oh I see, you WANT me to punish you eh?" There was something undeniably sexy when he was aggressive like this and I secretly hoped he would take me right here and now. I would never let him know that however. Not in a million years. He walked toward me slowly closing the distance and before he could get any closer I caught him off guard, my snowball I had been crafting creating quite an impact against his broad chest. His body absorbed it like it was nothing. 'He is a god after all, he probably didn't even feel anything.' His expression said otherwise. He looked at me with surprise but his expression quickly changed into something that made my pulse quicken. I slowly started to back away with my hands in the air but he only laughed.

"Now Dui....I-I was o-only playing okay?" I smiled pleadingly but he said nothing and continued moving toward me like a predator. I knew I was in trouble but I couldn't help pushing him further by trying to ward him off with a barrage of snowballs. He finally stopped moving and his smile faded. Looking at me with an entirely too serious expression he narrowed his eyes before sighing.

"Well, you've left me no choice."

*snap*

"AHHHHHH!" the seductively smiling little sadist now standing impossibly close had took it upon himself to rid me of any clothing. The cold air was almost painful and my skin erupted into angry goosebumps. Shivering I glared at him incredulously.

"Dui stop this! I-I'll freeze t-to death!" Pushing me down on my back in a pile of snow he laughed as my expression of panic grew to one of sheer discomfort from the icy cold on my bare skin. I couldn't even speak it was so painfully uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, I have every intention of thoroughly warming you up." That seductive sadist snapped away his cloth barrier and quickly climbed atop me instantly bringing me comfort from his warm skin. His hot mouth made it's way up and down my neck sending an aching thrill through me as I heard his voice ridden with lust in my head.

"I'm going to fuck you so hard we'll bring back the spring."

Ichthys

After a long day at the beach Ikky and I practically collapsed on my couch. I hadn't done that much swimming since I was a child and the exhaustion I was feeling was a stark reminder of that. It had all been worth it just to see him smiling and having so much fun. He was absolutely adorable when he acted so carefree like that. Like an innocent child taking in the world from an untainted perspective. We had so much fun I couldn't think of a happier time in my life. I wish it could be like this forever.

He rested his head in my lap and I lazily stroked his soft hair that smelled of ocean and sunshine. His eyes closed he smiled blissfully making his already boyish charm even more irresistible.

"Hm? I can feel your eyes on me, are you undressing me in your mind?" Though his eyes remained closed his smile morphed into something much more mischievous.

"Ikky you're always undressed in my mind." I teased. His eyes opening wide he gave me his best pouty face staring at me intensely.

"Nooo fair! Are you doing that on purpose?" He complained cutely. I tried to stifle a giggle. His brows furrowed displeased at my amusement.

"You're tooo mean! You know I have exhausted my powers for today and now you're exploiting it by trying to seduce me!" I couldn't help laughing, he was so stink'n cute like this I wanted to just eat him up!

"Awww, my poor wittle Ikky. Whatever will you do without having your powers to make love to me?" I smiled wickedly causing him to blush fiercely and look away.

"Cut it out! Otherwise I'm going to punish you twice as hard tomorrow once I've recharged."

"Ahahahaha! Yeah? And in the meantime?" I teased him further this time causing him to tackle me and regain the upper hand. I was pinned firmly beneath him, his hands holding both of my wrists down yet my expression never faltered.

"Wow, you are reallllly asking for it aren't you?!" Before I could respond he started tickling me all over causing me to writhe and scream for him to stop but of course there was no way that was going to happen. We were both laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes as he pulled my t-shirt up with his teeth exposing my tummy before moosing me. I was nearly in fits as he mercilessly tortured me before abruptly stopping. His expression was now puzzled and riddled with concern as he stared at something on my skin I couldn't see myself from this angle.

"Ikky what is it?" I asked as a sinking feeling flooded my insides.

"These marks? Where did they come from?" He frowned which made me even more worried. He helped pull me to my feet so I could go look for myself in the mirror.

"You definitely didn't have those the last time I saw you naked." He added unnecessarily making me embarrassed on top of everything else. When I stood in front of the mirror lifting my shirt sure enough there were definitely marks, though nothing as bad as I had anticipated. Feeling a tad relieved I brought a small tube of cold gel and handed it to Ikky before removing my shirt and turning around. Feeling his confusion I explained further.

"It's nothing too serious Ikky, it's just a sunburn. It will go away but it will hurt a lot less if you put that aloe in the tube on it." Though he followed my instructions as the soothing feeling of coldness met the heat radiating off my skin he was as confused as ever.

"Sun-burn? The sun can...really burn you?"

"Yep. We humans have to be careful when being out for long periods of time in the sun. This is just a mild burn but without proper protection we can actually get seriously injured. The only reason this is so mild is because I put on sunscreen before we left this morning. However after all the swimming we did I forgot to reapply it afterward which is probably when this happened."

"That's...horrible. It's just like in the vampire movies where the sun melts off their flesh and they die!"

"What on Earth have you been watching? First of all, vampires aren't real. That's just fictitious nonsense. Secondly, humans don't melt in the sun but our skin does burn so we just have to be careful, that's all."

"You saaaaaay there is no such thing as vampires but how do you know? Have you ever met one?" I know he's teasing me but for some reason I can't ever help myself from taking the bait.

"Ikky there is seriously no such thing as a vampire."

"Maybe that's just what they want you to believe." He smiled in amusement though I could tell my frustration was clearly visible to him. Instead of fueling this conversation any further I notice that we had tracked sand in on the carpet. Normally Ichthys could clean it all up in a snap but he is completely drained of his powers from the day we had. 'Guess I'll just have to do it the old fashioned way.' As I retrieve the vacuum from the front closet and roll it in Ikky's eyes go wide.

"What is that?" He asks looking kind of concerned still eyeing the contraption suspiciously. I couldn't help but smile at his reaction.

"This is called a vacuum. It sucks up dirt and all sorts of things off the floor." The way his expression suddenly contorts I can tell Ikky's eccentric imagination has gotten the better of him. Eyebrows furrowed tightly and a face ripe with unknown tension he backs away slowly across the room and onto the armchair. I am cracking up inside as he draws his feet up far away from the floor waiting for me to do something. 'Teehee! It reminds me of a dog whose terrified of the vacuum!' While I could do the right thing and explain things in a way so he could understand that this is nothing to be afraid of, I decide instead to extract my revenge for all the pranks my trickster boyfriend has pulled on me from the beginning. Smiling wickedly I plug it in and bring it to the carpet and just before I turn it on I tell him in a frighteningly dark tone-

"Be extra careful Ikky, though us humans have nothing to fear because we are their masters, I have no idea what will happen if you get too close to this thing." Looking horrified he climbs further up the armchair perching himself on top of the back like a cat. It takes everything I have to hold in the laughter as I turn the vacuum on and begin covering the floor. Never taking his eyes off the loud machine he grows ever rigid as I get closer to the armchair. Unable to take anymore he leaps across the living room onto the back of my couch making sure none of his limbs are anywhere near the ground.

"STOOOOOP! Put it away! PLEASSSSSSE! NO MORE NO MORRRRRE!" Luckily I had managed to get up the sand before he had his meltdown so I took mercy on him and turned it off. I wrappped the cord back up and put the vacuum back in the closet. As I returned to the living room there was a loud round of applause giving me quite the surprise. I was dumbfounded to see all eleven of the other zodiac gods cheering and smiling at me. '.....Whaa?'

"You just earned a favor from every god here goldfish." Leon laughed heartily. Confused I looked around at all of the gods wondering what they were all doing here in the first place.

"I may have misjudged you human. Not even a single god here can boast of pulling such a divine prank on that mischievous fish. For that, you have earned our respect." The great Minister of the Department of Punishments stood before me congratulating me with an actual smile on his face. I was so in shock I was unable to speak.

"Yeah. I take back what I said about you being stupid." Scorpio added smiling. 'Uhhhh......this HAS to be a dream right? RIGHT?'

"Ummm.....did Hell just freeze over or...?" They chuckled at my response but their smiles never wavered.

"Wait did Scorpio just-"

"Don't read into it." His usual scowl was back. 'Phew!' Turning to Ikky still unsure of everything I suddenly felt bad. 'Was he really that scared of the vacuum?'

"You have our thanks goldie!" Teo smiled sweetly.

"Not you too Teo?" Ikky complained as a sadly defeated expression filled his face. 'Oh man, I definitely went over the top with this. Poor Ikky, I was only teasing him a little...' I turned and walked over toward him but he nervously flinched away from my touch. 'Ouch. I deserve that.'

"Guess we will leave you to it, see you around!" Dui smiled sweetly, while they quickly one by one disappeared from my living room.

"Ikky...I"

"That was sooooo not cool. I can't believe you of all people would do something like that to me." He looked so dejected it was breaking my heart.

"And on top of it all the other gods know so I am nevvvver going to hear the end of it." Unable to take anymore I firmly wrapped my arms around him trying to hug him as tightly as I could.

"I'm so sorry Ikky, I really didn't mean to take it that far. But you were so cute trying to escape the big bad vacuum I just couldn't help myself!" I giggled making him blush deeply. Still looking angry he grabbed my chin roughly to look me in the eyes.

"You are in SO much trouble. Never ever, EVER try to trick a trickster because now? You just joined the big boy's league. Any trick I could and would play on the gods will now also apply to you my mischievous little minx. I will never, NEVER go easy on you again." His smile was fictitiously sweet and at that moment I knew I just made the biggest mistake of my life. 'Gods save me!'

Huedhaut

"I take it back, you're not pure at all so casually inviting a man to your bed." My cheeks flush but there was no way I was going to let his teasing deflate my mood.

"You're expectations may be a tad high Hue. How I am I supposed to act when you look at me like that?" My smile widens as it's now his turn to be the one blushing.

"You don't play fair do you?" He teased still glowing a beautiful crimson.

"Well I suppose that's because I learned from the very best!" I loved how we always bickered happily like an old married couple. Always teasing each other affectionately.

"Ahaha! Oh aren't you cheeky tonight! If you keep this up you know I'm just going to have to close that mouth for you."

"!!!!" Those eyes of his kill me. Especially when he is looking at me like he is right now. I can't let him have the upper hand, not yet! It would totally ruin the surprise.

"Okay okay! Geeze.....don't say things like that." I respond still feeling heat in my cheeks.

"I like when you look angry though. You make the cutest faces."

"S-Stop it Hue! Haven't you already embarrassed me enough?" His smile widens before responding sweetly.

"I haven't even started yet." He teases happily watching me get more and more frustrated till I finally can't come up with a retort.

"What, have you finally run of things to say?" All I could do in response was glare at him dubiously.

"Does this mean you are offering your surrender? Very well, I graciously accept!" Smiling deviously he scoops me up in his arms and heads over to the beautiful and private outdoor bath. The moonlight softly reflects off the water while a light breeze sends ripples across distorting the image.

*Snap*

"KYAA! H-HEY! WE'RE NAKED?!" I shout as he carries me into the water submerging us with me still in his arms.

"Wait, are you sure? I honestly hadn't noticed." He says flatly yet the smile on his face says he's enjoying this entirely too much. As he gets comfortable and relaxes leaning back before shutting his eyes I begin to flush from head to toe.

"Ummm, y-you know you can put me down now.." I manage feeling flustered at his boldness. He gives me that quirky smile but doesn't bother to open his eyes or show any signs of moving for that matter.

"That's true, I absolutely could but there's a problem. I don't really want to." He teases tightening his grip on me and chuckling as I flail about.

"Tell you what, you're free to go but only if..." He offers not finishing his sentence.

"Only ifffff?" I try coaxing it out of him eager to hide the embarrassment threatening to kill me. His almond eyes pop open and he brings his face dangerously close to mine.

"If you can escape."

"!!!!!" Frantic from our naked closeness I try desperately to escape but it only seems to encourage him further. He pulls me in closer pressing his lips to my temple.

"Knowing that there is no way you can win in this scenario it's just entirely too adorable to see you still foolishly try." Finally giving up trying to escape I resort to hiding what I can with my hands and pouting furiously.

"No, I'm afraid that's not going to work either. I've already memorized every inch of your body." He smiles deftly pulling my hands away from my chest and exposing the soft mounds now floating in the water.

"Though it never hurts to review the content." He laughs as he notices the unmistakable new view.

"Boy you are really full of it tonight aren't you?" I complain testily. His smile remains unchanged and if anything there's a fire now burning in his eyes.

"Y-You know two c-can play this game!" I idly threaten him which only seems to amuse him further as he pulls me onto his lap facing him. 'Thank the gods it's nighttime!'

"Hmm, what game do you speak of?" I narrow my eyes trying to give him my best scary face.

"You know damn well what game!" I hiss causing him to momentarily stop smiling. 'Eeek! Did I make him mad?' Without warning I feel both of his hands grab onto my backside firmly causing me to yelp. An almost sinister expression stares back at me with a daring smile.

"Nope, could you please clarify?" His fingers squeeze the soft flesh even harder sending a sweet shiver through my body. There's a hunger in his eyes that tells me he's definitely not letting me go till he's satisfied. That thought alone stirs the heat inside of me. The next thing I know his mouth is on mine kissing me feverishly. The sounds of desperately growing passion fills the air. His hands are still cool to the touch despite being in the warm water making everywhere he touches come alive.

"H-Hue-ahh!" His cool lips trace along the skin of my throat and he teasingly nips at the skin. He pulls my hips down on him and enters me. The strange sensation of being in the water while becoming one overtakes me causing me to lose all control and fully submit to the god of Aquarius. As he has his way with me I can't help but feel as if even the water surrounding me is tantalizing. Almost as if it's following it's masters lead lovingly embracing me and seducing my senses. Overcome with such pleasure our passion continues well into the night.

He pulls his fingers up my back softly comforting me after our intense lovemaking causing an embarrassed smile to find my lips. I'm grateful he can't see as my head rests comfortably on his shoulder and my arms locked in his embrace. We haven't moved. I'm still straddling his lap with him inside me and though we both have climaxed several times my body is no match for a gods endurance. I feel so weak I couldn't stand even if I wanted to.

"Perhaps it would be best to get you out of the water now." He offers sweetly with concern in his voice. I was about to make a joke about it being a literal or figurative statement but I was too exhausted to even think.

"I never thought I would see you so complacent. Was it really that good?" He chuckled but about all I could offer in response was a incoherent grumble. He carries me effortlessly to the bed but hesitates to set me down a moment.

"You're already practically asleep aren't you." He whispers in my ear before nuzzling my neck.

"Mmm." I smile sleepily but still manage to look into his beautiful sapphire eyes. There's so much love there my heart feels like it's about to burst.

"Would it be okay if I kept you in my arms all night?" He asked softly and I nodded blissfully. As he gently sunk into the bed with me still in his arms his eyes went wide in wonder.

"T-this is?" I couldn't help smile so pleased I was able to surprise him in the end.

"Yup! Surprise!" I offered cheerfully grinning ear to ear. Still completely stunned he gently rocks against the mattress sending waves up and down the bed. A huge child-like smile fills his face.

"I had no idea something like this existed."

"Teehee! It's called a waterbed. I'm glad you like it, I knew you would." I felt so proud I was able to actually educate him on something for once.

"You knew huh? Just how much were you fantasizing about me being in bed with you?" 'Leave it to Hue to ruin the moment.'

"Wouldn't you like to know." I tease but without warning I'm on my back, wrists pinned to the sides of my head.

"I suppose I'll just spend all night finding out."

Teorus

Teorus was actually really difficult to write. I have tried to incorporate a lot of their actual main story line themes into their respective chapters. Due to Teorus' content it was really tricky to make the story humorous without making him into a total asshole. Thus, his chapter is more emotional than humorous so I hope you don't mind.

Sighing to myself utterly frustrated at the sight in front of me I feel the jealousy bubbling to the surface. I have my hands clenched so tightly into fists that my nails are digging into the skin causing minor pain. It's nothing compared to the pain I feel in my heart. I knew dating Teorus came with a special set of circumstances seeing as he was absolutely gorgeous. Everywhere we went there were women, goddess and human alike throwing themselves all over him. It didn't even matter if we were together they just pushed their way through eager for his attention. Teo being ignorantly oblivious and unable to be anything less than charming could never bring himself to be mean and flat out refuse them or walk away.

Out of the blue one of the many goddesses throwing themselves at him decides to test her luck and steals a pretty over the top kiss. Teorus looks shocked for a moment but it's when I see his cheeks turning pink that I lose it. 'Pssh! Goddesses or not I'm gonna knock her out!' I stand, absolutely seething and about to move in when a hand grabs my arm and pulls me around the corner and out of view of the ridiculous spectacle.

"Ikky! What are you doing? I was this close to giving that goddess a piece of my mind!" I hissed. He just smiled at me calmly placing his hands on my shoulders.

"Just breeeeeeathe." Still unwillingly to let the hatred leave my face I at least appease him by taking a few deep breaths. Feeling slightly less murderous I try to calm myself down a bit and it's only then that I realize tears are streaming down my face.

"Ah! No no noooooooo...please don't cry." Ichthys panics trying to cheer me up but it's no use, the dam has broken and I can't stop the flood.

"Awwww, please don't cry. You're too pretty to cry." He says looking on the verge of tears himself. 'Why can't Teorus be as sweet and understanding as Ichthys?' It feels like there is a pit in my stomach and feeling so desperate for affection I bury my face in Ichthys' chest while the tears continue to fall. I hear him sigh before he gently embraces me, stepping in where my boyfriend should have been.

"Hey Ikky?" I murmur as his hands gently rub my back.

"Hmm?"

"Teo's you're best friend and you know him better than anyone. Does he....even love me?" Ichthys is silent a moment but squeezes me tighter.

"Yes. I know he does. He talks about you like allllll the time."

"T-Then w-why?" I can't even finish my sentence as everything I have been holding in comes pouring out. I can feel him rest his cheek atop my head as he tries to comfort me.

"Teorus has always been....you know....Teorus. He's always been surrounded by women whether he wants to be or not. I don't think he really understands how it makes you feel to be honest. He's never had a reason to be jealous before so he doesn't understand the feeling you know?" As I listen to Ikky's words I try to understand things from his perspective. Even if that's the truth they are gods and I am simply human. I can't control the way I feel inside which makes me feel even more depressed. Could we ever make this actually work? Maybe this relationship really isn't meant to be after all. The sadness of that thought consumes me and I wrap my arms tightly around Ichthys hoping my heart won't crumble out of my chest.

"There you arrrrrre......whaaa?" Teo's sickly sweet voice rings out as he comes bounding around the corner.

"What's the matter?" He asks frowning. I don't want him to know I was crying over what happened so I give Ichthys a pleading look and he smiles.

"She's fiiiiiine. I totally stepped on her toes by accident and it must have realllllly hurt. I felt really bad so I hugged her to say I was sorry." Ikky's smile was amazingly convincing and Teo bought it.

"Are you okay? Does it still hurt?" He asks me sweetly and I choke down the anger I still have in my heart and just nod.

"Yay! I'm glad. I have some bad news though, Leo is being tooootally unfair and said I HAVE to turn in paperwork from last week." He complains looking disappointed.

"It's okay, I can get back on my own. I don't want to get you in trouble with Leon." I offer feeling secretly relieved.

"Don't worry though, I promise to be back as soon as possible so we can still spend the night together." Smiling, he kisses the back of my hand and disappears.

"He does loooove you, even if it's hard to see sometimes." Ikky offers trying to cheer me up again.

"Wait what did you just say?" I ask as an idea starts to form in my head.

"Errrr....that he loves you?" Ikky responds looking startled and confused at the change of tone in my voice.

"No, not that. If it's hard to 'see' sometimes. Hmmm, maybe I need to approach this in an entirely different way." Just like that I know exactly what to do though it's going to require a little bit of help from a specific god. Sighing, knowing I'm walking into the lion's den I turn to Ichthys with determination in my eyes.

"Ikky, take me to see Partheno."

"Well well! To what do I owe the pleasure of your divine presence?" Partheno oozes charm and sexiness and being the most beautiful god in the heavens on top of it makes being in his presence nerve wracking to say the least.

"Well, to be honest I really need your help Partheno. Can you....make me beautiful?" The surprise on his face is quickly followed by a frown.

"What a ridiculous request, I can't possibly grant it to you seeing as you are already very beautiful." His lips softly press against the back of my hand and for some reason it gives me butterflies.

"Cut it out you dirty birdy, that's Teo's girl and I don't think he'd appreciate you shmoozn' his woman." Ichthys says sternly causing Partheno to withdraw but not before winking at me making me blush.

"Partheno, um....how should I put this...err."

"Oh don't fret so much, besides making a face like that will give you wrinkles. Here, have some beauty enhancing tea and calm yourself." He hands me a beautiful and ornate teacup with it's contents a lovely light pinkish hue.

"Oh wow...it smells and tastes like roses. This is amazing! Thank you Partheno." I feel the tension slowly leave my body with each sip.

"You're quite welcome. Now then, I know why you are here and I must say how pleased I am that you asked for my help. We shall transform you into the very image of beauty! All the goddesses of the heavens will be jealous at your radiance!

"Teehee! Thank you, I've never actually had a make-over before. I didn't think gods even knew about something like this considering you are all so perfect and beautiful anyway."

"While it is inherently a human practice I find perfecting beauty a wonderful way to spend my time." Makes perfect sense considering who he is yet I can't possibly fathom Partheno being any more gorgeous than he already is. He immediately gets to work starting with my hair. Excited and nervous I anxiously wait as he works his magic.

"Are you sure I look okay Ikky?" I ask for the hundredth time as he escorts me back to the mansion.

"Duuuuuuh, seriously stop asking me....it's difficult enough okay?" I look over at his beautiful boyish features and am instantly startled to see Ichthys bright red.

"Huh?? I don't..."

"Seriously, you don't get it do you? You're beyond beautiful, so much so I don't want to look at you because it's hard to stop my mind from wandering. I'm a man too you know!" The frustration and anger of his tone renders me speechless. I had never seen this side of Ichthys before, it was actually kinda cute. He refuses to look in my direction and continues to stare straight ahead, his posture stiffer than normal.

We reach the door to the mansion and I suddenly feel like chickening out when I look down and remember how sexy and revealing this dress is. I would never have thought I could pull it off but when Partheno led me in front of the mirror I was dumbfounded. Every trace of the boyish and plain features of mine had been transformed into an elegant yet sexy woman. I couldn't believe I had been actually looking at my own reflection. It was the first time I had felt worthy enough to stand by Teorus' side. My hair was in an intricate up-do and my make up though a tad dark suited my palette. A gorgeous dark blue velvet dress that sparkled near the chest and ankles hugged my body. I had complained at how low cut the front was and high the slit for the leg went but Partheno was absurdly convincing that I pulled it off flawlessly. For the finishing touch a perfume of his own design that smelled heavenly and so I was now ready for my grand debut.

"Deep breath and remember what Partheno told you." Ikky said quietly at my side raising his hand to open the door.

"Confidence is sexier than everything else combined." I answered as I took a deep breath and held my head high. Just before Ikky opened the door I whispered softly to him.

"Thank you Ichthys. For everything. You truly are an amazing friend." Watching his cheeks burn up once more I said nothing more, only smiled.

The door opened and we walk inside where we hear many voices coming from the living room. It seemed like many more than usual and I could swear some I had never heard before. As I turned to glance at Ikky he gives me a knowing smirk.

"Consider it a gift." His smile only makes my nerves start to surface but it's too late, there's no turning back now.

"Hellllloooooooo? We're baaaaack!" Ichthys says in his usual playful tone and everyone starts to go quiet. We walk around the corner and into view and I am suddenly surprised to find all of the gods gathered in one room. Everything instantly goes silent and all eyes are on me, apparently having shocked all of them into silence. Nervously looking around the room as my heart beats wildly and my confidence wavers my eyes meet Partheno's who was standing alone at the back of the room sipping tea. He nods and smiles restoring my resolve. I finally allow myself to smile as I greet everyone.

"Good evening." I manage. As per usual, Leon is the first to speak.

"Oh-ho! What's this?" He struts over to me lightly taking my chin and thoroughly looking me over.

"You've left me no choice but to make you mine." His voice is deep and sensual, his eyes burning with desire. Suddenly a hand pulls me away from Leon.

"You are not worthy of such a goddess." I'm flabbergasted when I see that the voice and hand belong to none other than the Chief Minister of the Department of Punishments. 'Zy-Zyglavis?! No way!' He kneels before me kissing the back of my hand sweetly.

"Be mine and I will treat you with all of the love and passion a goddess such as you deserves." 'W-WHAT?!' Apparently I'm not the only one completely dumbfounded at the extremely uncharacteristic behavior of the god before me. Almost everyone in Punishments' eyes are wide and mouths agape.

"Choose me and I'll give you all of my heart and soul. I will treasure you for all eternity." Dui also bows before me. 'WHAT?! DUI NOW TOO?!'

"Come with me and I will worship every part of your mind, body and soul." 'GAH! HUE?!'

"I will treat you as the queen you are, your every wish is my command." Karno also takes a knee, bowing before me.

"Belong to me Little Lady and I will make your every fantasy a reality." Tauxolouve winks suggestively. 'T-This...is just....too much!'

"No one here could protect you better than I could my goddess. Let me serve you." Even Krioff pledges to me making this entire situation over the top. I know I am blushing from head to toe as one by one the gods profess their love. It isn't until they all have spoken their intent or requests that the one among all of them I wanted so desperately finally approaches me and speaks. His honey colored eyes full of worry, regret and sadness slowly shift to an amazing cerulean blue leaving me breathless.

"Please forgive my foolishness my precious beautiful goddess." He kneels at my feet before bowing so lowly he presses his forehead to the floor.

"T-Teorus.." His name escapes my lips on a breath. He doesn't rise from his knees but tenderly takes my leg and grazes his lips across the skin sending a fiery shiver through me.

"I'm not worthy of your love, not after what I have put you through. I see that now and not because you are dressed and look differently. Nothing is as beautiful as you in every way and any form. It's because I didn't realize what it felt like to have the one you love surrounded and hit on by others. I am so deeply sorry for not cherishing your heart. There isn't a man alive, human or god that could ever be worthy of you, but I would give everything, the stars from my eyes, my very life just to try."

I try to hold back my own tears as I watch his own tears softly fall to the floor. 'Oh Teorus.' I bend down and take his hands in mine before bringing us to our feet. I smile warmly before embracing him so tightly it hurts.

"My heart belongs to you and only you, now and forever." I offer tenderly. Overjoyed more tears fall but a huge smile fills his beautiful face. His eyes soften and return to normal and suddenly I am in his arms and be carried from the living room. As I look over his shoulder I see all of the gods smile. When my eyes find Ichthys I see that familiar mischievous grin as he gives me a thumbs up. 'Ah, so that's what he did! Ha!' Smiling in return I silently mouth the words Thank You.

Can you tell us about your Until Dawn au?

Gladly! It’s not anything spectacular, but it’s a fun idea totinker around with, anyways ^^

So it’s basically just Until Dawn with all the UD charactersreplaced with the Pokemon characters and a few changes to the storyto fit around the world of pokeani, with the character roles going asfollows:

Ash - Josh

Misty - Sam

Brock - Mike

May - Ashley/Chris (interchangeably, ‘cause in some instances I want her to be in Ashley’s position, and in others, Chris’s, for reasons I’ll get into in a bit)

Dawn - Jessica

Jessie - Emily

James - Matt

Meowth - Chris/Ashley (same thing as May)

Pikachu - technically serving both the positions of Hannah and Beth, but namely Hannah

and then the old flamethrower man dude can be like an older, rugged Officer Jenny who’s long since retired lol

Oh, I should probably mention that everyone is in their 20′s orolder at the time of this au. Also, since I came up with this aubefore I watched XY (and I never bothered with BW whoops),unfortunately those travel companions will not be there. So let’sjust say, for the convenience of the story, that they had otherarrangements and couldn’t make it

From here on out, this is gonna get super LONG, and super SPOILERYFOR UNTIL DAWN. So if you don’t know jack diddly about UD, and youdon’t want to be spoiled, I’d recommend holding off on reading thisfor now. So I’m gonna put the rest under a read more so I ain’tclogging up anyone’s dash with my dumb au

So basically, instead of a bunch of rowdy college kids staying upat a cabin to party and sex each other all day and all night, it’sgonna basically be like this:

Ash won a pokemon league and became a pokemon master (finally),and won a cabin on top of Mount Silver…? I think was the place Iwanted him at…?

ANYWAYS, he’s celebrating, all his friends are there (at leastthe ones I mentioned above), they’re all having a fun dandy time,and eventually Ash conks out from exhaustion. During this time, whoelse but Team Rocket decides to stick their noses where they don’tbelong in hopes of ‘congratulating’ Ash by means of stirringup trouble and capturing Pikachu. (they do mean well, and they areactually super happy for him, butchaknow–they’re kinda the mastersat fucking things up royally)

As they’re trying to make their epic getaway, though, thesnowstorm outside blows them way off course, and they end up droppingPikachu just before they crash into the trees. They’re all fine,Pikachu included, but Pikachu’s a far ways away from the cabin now,and has to try and make it back on his own, cause the others sure asfuck ain’t gonna find him in this weather

On the way, though, some monstrosity catches sight of him andchases him to the edge of a cliff. Pikachu ends up falling off (Withthe old Officer Jenny trying to save him and failing), but hesurvives the fall. Unfortunately, he has no way of letting the othersknow of his location, since he’s so far out and so far down intothe depths of the mountain, so he’s deemed missing by theauthorities

Fast forward a year, and suddenly Ash is inviting everyone (TeamRocket included) back up to the cabin to celebrate the memory of hismissing/probably dead best friend. Everyone is a bit unsettled goingback, but go anyways, if only just to try and help out Ash in any waythey can.

A couple problems they notice through the night, though, are 1.Their pokeballs don’t seem to work (Ash claims that cell towersrecently put up on the mountain are messing with the technology) and2. There seems to be a certain bloodthirsty killer up on the mountainwith them :o

Throughout the night, the eight are eventually split up intopairs, partly because of their own volition, and partly because ofTeam Rocket being there and causing suspicion. For instance, Dawn haslike zero sympathy for the Trio and doesn’t want anything to dowith them, so Brock takes her up to the guest cabin. Jessie and Jamesgo out on their own (either exploring or James forgot a bag orsomething, I haven’t decided). Meowth doesn’t deem it necessaryto accompany them (the trip there wore him out, he claims–inreality, he’s just fucking lazy), so he sticks around with May,Misty, and Ash.

AND THAT’S WHEN SHIT GOES DOWN

Dawn and Brock are the first to be attacked, unbeknownst to theothers, and Dawn is presumed to be dead by Brock (shes fine tho) bythe time he reaches her. He then goes on a quest to find theperson(?) who hurt his friend to bring the great fist of JUSTICE downon them. The quest leads him through an abandoned pokemon hospitalwith a very shady past (which, admittedly, I haven’t put too muchthought into), and also delves into the mysterious transformation ofpokemon who have died into a very vicious and hostile ghost-typepokemon that has only ever been spotted on the mountain (and you cansee where this is going for a certain mouse pokemon who has beenmissing for over a year)

Back at the cabin, Misty takes a bath, and Ash, May, and Meowthplay with the spooky spirit board that tells them that Pikachu’sdisappearance was no accident, but was actually planned (which makesMeowth suuuuper uncomfortable and guilty). So Ash has anunderstandable reaction to this thing that he believes the other twohave made up in some attempt to make him feel better (?), and May andMeowth eventually get knocked the fuck out by Mr. Spooky Clown Man.

May wakes up a little later and finds that Ash and Meowth are bothmissing. After some searching, she finds them in a shed outside, bothtied to a wall with a buzzsaw aimed right at them. Mr. Spooky ClownMan comes over the intercom and tells May that she can only save oneof them from being ripped in two. So she’s sobbing cause shedoesn’t want to have to make this decision, Meowth’s sobbingbecause he knows that he ain’t the one she’s gonna choose, andAsh is sobbing because LOLL WHOOPS EVEN THOUGH MAY CHOOSES TO SAVEASH, SHE ENDS UP SAVING MEOWTH BECAUSE THE BUZZSAW SAYS SO

So uh. May’s super traumatized and heartbroken about watchingone of her best friends getting killed. But. She’s also growing ateensy bit suspicious of Meowth, seeing as how she distinctly choseto save Ash instead of him, and how Jessie and Jamesare conveniently away from the area during theattack and show up conveniently after said attack.So in her mind, she comes up with this elaborate hypothetical schemethat she believes the Rockets are planning, and tries to take theinitiative in stopping said plans by keeping Meowth along with herwhile she tells Jessie and James to go find help (under the guisethat she’s keeping Meowth with her as insurance that they don’tgo ditching everyone).

Jessie and James go on a little adventure over the mountains afterdiscovering that their balloon has mysteriously been torn to shredsand all the fuel has been mysteriously emptied out. After discoveringthat the cable car house leading up to the cabin is in shambles, thetwo come across a radio tower. They manage to get a hold of somehelp, but that’s when the tower decides to suddenly keel over andtrap them in the mines, oh fun!! In the mines, Jessie is holding onfor dear life to the rail of the tower, and James tries to pull herup, but can’t reach her. He asks if she trusts him, and that hebelieves he will have a better chance at reaching her from the ledgebehind her. She hesitantly says yes, and allows him to jump, but thejump is the last bit of force needed to send the tower tumbling tothe abyss, Jessie along with it. YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW FUCKINGDISTRAUGHT JAMES IS.

Jessie’s fine tho. Turns out she got caught in the wires duringthe fall, and manages to make it to safety afterwards. Then she goeson a spectacular, fun filled adventure through the mines discovering bits and pieces asto what happened to Pikachu after he went missing, and also runninginto Rugged Ol’ Jenny.

May keeps her suspicions to herself until the very end of the Mr.Spooky Clown Man escapades, where they’re both put into anotherdeath trap, and Meowth ends up being the one with the gun. Then itall comes out, and you can imagine how pleased Meowth is to hear thatthe only reason May separated him from his friends and quite possiblygot both of his friends killed during this horrific night was becausethat she thought they devised this whole thing.

THEEENN THE TRUTH COMES OUT, AND MR.SPOOKY CLOWN MAN IS ACTUALLY ASH, WHO’S APPARENTLY LOST HIS SHITAFTER LOSING PIKACHU. SO UM. HE’S FUCKING PISSED AT TEAM ROCKET FORTAKING PIKACHU AND PROBABLY GETTING HIM KILLED. AND HE’S ALSO FUCKINGPISSED THAT HIS FRIENDS DID PRETTY MUCH NOTHING TO HELP PIKACHU.

IT’S DURING THIS TIME THAT MISTY ANDBROCK MEET UP WITH EACH OTHER, THEN MEET UP WITH THOSE THREE.

YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW FINE AND DANDYEVERYONE IS TO HEAR THAT THEY’VE JUST BEEN THROUGH THE WORST NIGHT OFTHEIR LIVES JUST FOR A STUPID PRANK THAT ASH DECIDES TO PULL ON THEMIN A SICK FORM OF REVENGE.

Anyhoo, Brock breaks the news thatDawn’s fucking dead (supposedly), he and Misty decide that Ash is notallowed to be on his two feet for the rest of the night until helparrives, and Meowth decides, ‘fuck you guys, you’re all awful, immago find my friends’

During which time, Jessie manages tomake it back to the cabin after being attacked by the Hostile GhostPokemon, and Rugged Ol’ Jenny is not far behind, quite literallycarrying Meowth back with her, cause 'nah you’re not allowed to beout on your own at this time of night—dontcha know there bemonsters?’

Annnnnnnnnnd the rest of the storybasically pans out just like how Until Dawn pans out.

SORRY THIS WAS SO LONG. I JUST NEEDEDTO PUT IN MY CHANGES IN ORDER FOR EVERYTHING TO MAKE SENSE. BUT YEAH.THAT’S MY DUMB UNTIL DAWN AU.

I partly reallllllly wanna write itout, but also—that would require writing out and reworking thebackstory of the penitentiary/mines. And also somehow incorporatinga sense of choice in the story. Which I don’t think I have the skillto do lol

I have some ideas about possibleoutcomes, such as what it’s like if a character dies, if some die butnot others, if no one dies, or the emotional and eventual impact ofsaid deaths (for example, if Brock shoots Jessie after discoveringthat she has been bitten by Hostile Ghost Pokemon, Meowth will be soovercome with shock and grief and anger that he’ll lose allsensibility and rational thought, which will eventually lead to hisown demise at the hands of a Hostile Ghost Pokemon mimicking James’svoice; versus if Brock doesn’t shoot her, and both Rockets are justsuper livid and untrusting of the twerps for the rest of the nightand Meowth has enough sense to make good decisions about suspiciousJames-sounding monstrosities), but I won’t put y'all through any moreof that lol

While I don’t plan on having this beingsuper shippy, I plan to have mentions/small discussions ofPokeshipping pining (possibly, haven’t decided whether I want thisone or not), Lustshipping, Contestshipping, Appealshipping,Rocketshipping pining, and Krazyshipping pining (lol whoops)

I also have a couple other au’s withinthe au, one of which Meowth takes the position of Beth and fallsalong with Pikachu at the beginning, and another where Pikachu iswith the group and someone completely different falls. But both ofthose au’s are very underdeveloped; this is the only one I’ve put any real thought into lol

but yeah. I think I’ve said all I cansay about this. It’s a dumb idea, but I think putting charactersthrough horrible situations is a great way to explore their psycheand toy around with what kind of decisions they might make instrenuous situations. Or at least I like to tell myself that in orderto justify myself for putting my favorite characters through absolutehell and back.

#noooooooo I totally didn't just spend three hours writing this out #that's ridiculous #who would do that #tinyAUs #guess this is gonna be a thing now #readasaur #ask #....#I swear to god i like these characters
