Gray may currently give off black cat energy but as soon as he falls for his Queen of Hearts, he's gonna be the golden retriever in the relationship no matter how much he downplays it. And Lyra ain't a black cat, no, she's a straight up calico.

I LOVE imagine that I would be able to strike up a good conversation with Spencer, you know; something interesting and funny, although the truth is that I wouldn't be able to look at him in the eyes even if i try, my legs would tremble while I feel my heart rise to my throat.

Rambling about Fairies - Manga Chapter 202
Tumblr media
I am so happy that Loke gets character development by having a whole role in Tenrou arc as a candidate. I love that Mashima gave him a whole arc to play a role in, even a proper opponent set up and everything. This is my Loke bias talking.
Also, Gray always wears winter coats, but this time specifically he's wearing one with a furred hood just like Loke used to wear and my Grayloke heart is not okay

Could you perhaps do some headcanons for when Team Natsu- I'm sorry, Team Simp-For-Lucy finds out Lucy broke Aquarius' key to save them?
Ooo Angsty. Love it!
Lucy doesn't bring it up. Everyone went through a lot and Lucy didn't wanna add to that
The first person that figures it out is Gray right before Fairy Tail disbands
He sits next to her and asks who she lost. Gray says he can tell by the look in her eye. It's the same one he has
Lucy admits she had to break Aquarius' key. It's the first time she says it out loud and she turns into a sobbing mess again
Gray hugs her tightly and thanks her for saving them. He compliments her on making such a hard decision and assures Lucy that he will make it up to her
She just asks that he lives a long and happy life. Gray promises her and the two of them mourn their losses together
Natsu finds out before they leave to find Wendy. He snoops around her apartment and finds the broken key
He doesn't understand what happened but Lucy finds him holding it and explains what she had to do
Him and Happy feel extremely guilty for leaving her alone after losing her oldest friend
Lucy insists it's fine and that Aquarius isn't dead. She's still slightly bitter they left her so she'd rather not talk about it
Natsu and Happy make a plan that day to figure out a way to make it up to her
Natsu really starts pushing the 100yq when he finds out Aquarius' key is out there. His main priority is getting that key to Lucy
Wendy and Carla find out pretty soon afterwards. Lucy makes a comment about how she wished she could summon Aquarius and Wendy asks if the two were fighting
Wendy cries when Lucy tells her. She hugs Lucy tightly and tells her she understands the pain Lucy went through.
Wendy also makes sure Lucy knows how sorry she is for leaving Lucy alone (as if it was her fault) and how she will always be here for Lucy if she needs to talk
Lucy just thanks her and tells Wendy she is just happy she could save her friends
Carla thanks Lucy for making the right choice
Erza sees the necklace hanging from around Lucy's neck one day and questions it. The entire camp falls silent
Lucy just gives Erza a sad smile and tells her that she had to make a choice between losing one friend or all of her friends
Erza doesn't fully understand but Lucy won't talk any further so Erza drops it
The others eventually explain it to her and Erza decides she owes Lucy a life debt
Erza goes out of her way to look after Lucy and check on her for even the littlest things. (including dropping everything to bandage a papercut on Lucy's finger)
Lucy knows what she's doing, but she doesn't say anything knowing that Erza has a strict moral code

Tumblr media
Everyone thinks the relationship between a construct and their commandant is purely professional; the latter exuding orders to be executed by the former, the war they face, the blood they had and have to shed — all for the sake of survival and success of the mission. In the end, glory and honor await those who return to Babylonia.
However, beyond the exemplary titles and glimmering medals of valor, no one knows what happens behind those walls.
For example — they never saw the way Lee's fingers curled on your thigh.
Babylonia shone its bright lights onto the heroes that successfully reclaimed another place on Earth. To celebrate their arrival, the leaders took initiative to throw a grand party. Not only to celebrate their win, but to also reignite the nearly-doused flames of hope to the remaining humanity, to show that there is still a chance to take back the Earth from the reigns of death.
Cheers still rang throughout the halls of Babylonia, its joy incomparable to the wails down below. Surely, those who are still alive at a time like this couldn't help but join in their charade, at least, before they wake up once more to the sorrowful reality.
The Gray Ravens are no exception. Being one of the elite squad to spearhead the operations with the banner of Babylonia, they were the subject of the grand feast. And that meant the glimmers of tonight awaited their victorious presence.
“I don't- ah!” A small squeak escaped your lips, as Lucia finally finished pulling on the flimsy thread on your back.
Gasping, Liv covered her mouth in awe, rose-colored irises twinkling as she looked at you, “Commandant, you look so pretty.”
Laughing awkwardly, you slightly nodded to your construct, “really? It feels...awkward though.”
“Liv's not lying,” a soft assurance came from your team leader, Lucia, a grin reflecting on her face, “you look really pretty today, commandant.”
Gently tugging your figure to the nearest mirror, Lucia and Liv revealed your outfit tonight. Mirrors were supposed to reflect what one should see, yet, your own eyes wouldn't believe what was in front of you:
A cream-colored silk dress with a sweetheart neckline, the end of the gown reaching the floor, that hugged your curves all too well. Your usual tied hair was freely cascading your bare back, strands tickling wherever they could reach. You noticed your skin was sparkling even; you were well-aware of the vigorous training and all the other unfortunate scenarios that you and your team went through, yet, your body seemed like it knew no fatigue or stress at all.
“Ayla volunteered to help you look perfect tonight,” Liv pipped, “I think you noticed it when she was scrubbing your body earlier.”
“That was her?” It explained the intense scratching on your skin while you were in the bath, one that your constructs insisted on doing.
The three of you laughed. You couldn't help but marvel at your own constructs as well — Lucia wearing a dazzling carmine gown that reflected her Plume frame, and Liv with her luminous bubblegum cocktail dress mirroring her Eclipse one. A small sense of pride that intertwined with your joy bubbled in your chest, you were glad they were around as your friends instead of just ordinary constructs that only know of staying in the battlefield.
A knock on the door interrupted your moment with your teammates. Liv quickly ran to the door. “It must be Lee!”
A mention of his name made your heart skip a beat. It wasn't supposed to be like that — the relationship between a construct and a commandant is strictly professional. Deep down, you knew your feelings for him are far from that; you saw Lee more than just a teammate or a best friend. But to you, you don't even know the depth of his own attraction to you, unless you remember that one time—
Pretending to look away and deciding to create a small talk with Lucia, your eyes betrayed you as it caught a glimpse of Lee's figure emerging from the front door.
“Are you excited for tonight, Commandant?” Lucia asked.
“A bit. I feel like it's different facing a crowd for a party than facing the corrupted.”
“I agree with you,” she hummed, “but I think it'll be alright, we are all here together rather than fighting at different places all at once, right?”
Once more, your heart skipped. You looked over the mirror, to see cerulean eyes staring at you: an unreadable emotion written on his face.
“Ah, other than that, we have respective partners for tonight anyways. Are you excited to have Lee accompany you, Commandant?”
Another mention of his name. Paired with Lee's lingering gaze on you made you feel like you've shrunken like a mouse. It made your heart beat even faster, that you stumbled on your words.
“I think Chrome will be an excellent pair.”
A pin-drop silence entered the room. Your attention flickered to the reflection of the mirror, where a downcast expression was rewritten on Lee's face.
“You mean Chrome is your partner for tonight?”
Curse your carelessness. You hadn't even asked Chrome in reality; you were just running away from Lee and that unfortunate time—
—Liv hurriedly came back into the lounge. Noticing the air of gloominess, Liv opened her mouth, before hiccuping into a squeal.
“A-ah, guys! I think we should be going now...the party will be starting soon!”
You took that as a cue to turn and face your team members. Taking Lucia's hand, you trudged up to Lee and Liv. You made a mistake in looking at the construct you've been ignoring ever since you came back to Babylonia: the navy blue suit that was carefully ironed, and the smell of musk that flooded your senses. And you wished you hadn't looked up instead when you met his gaze.
Cerulean eyes stared down at you, and the initial fear of shrinking into a mouse returned to you. Looking away, you noticed a small bouquet of roses behind Lee's back, making your heart ache for no reason.
“Commandant.”
Lee's voice matured through the months you've been together. This time, his usual calculative tone melted, and instead, a softer yet rough baritone tone escaped his lips.
He held out his free hand. White gloves instead of the rough ones you've always seen were in his hands instead. “Commandant, good evening.”
“Good-” your voice cracked, making you cringe, “-good evening, Lee.”
You instinctively took the hand that was for you, but Lee was faster, the bouquet of fresh roses and baby's breath already in front of you.
“This is for you.”
No words came out of your blanked out mind. Lee finished the sentence for you, opting to give the bouquet to you without even touching his hand.
“I initially thought I'd be the one to accompany you tonight, but I suppose Captain Chrome already took that place. I'm sure his bouquet is much better than mine, then I suppose I should leave this here?”
Bastard.
A new sense of embarrassment erupted in your face that covered the butterflies that charred in your stomach.
He certainly was about to make that night memorable, wasn't he?
Tumblr media
Golden lights poured all over the grandiose auditorium. People and constructs wearing ballgowns, dresses, and suits flocked underneath the glinting chandelier, its rainbow lights reflecting on the tiled floors. The faint smell of food and the clanking of glass filled the entire room, creating an ambiance that was sure to be remembered.
At that moment, confused gray eyes stared at your awkward figure.
“You want...me to be your partner?”
As soon as you entered the room, you had successfully evaded Lee and quickly found Chrome. You tried to keep things short and concise, just to let the captain of Strike Hawk agree to your proposal.
“Just for tonight.” You hushed your tone, frantically looking around to see if someone was eavesdropping on your conversation, “please, Chrome. I'll give you the cleaning robots you want for the whole month.”
“There's no need for that, Commandant. You already know that I'd do whatever you'd ask me to do, but I just don't get why? Isn't Lee around?”
A helpless sigh escaped your lips, to which the captain saw. Before you could speak, the expression on his face changed when he looked up, then looked back at you.
“Is this about Le-”
“-I know, I know, I'm a coward.” You deeply sighed once more, face covered by your hands, “I'm an idiot.”
Fortunately for you, Chrome knows about your dilemma – your infatuation for the man in your team. Giving you an assuring pat on your shoulder, Chrome lightly laughed.
“I see, I understand. I will be your partner for tonight then, Commandant. However, you should already know that you really need to talk to him about what happened before more misunderstandings would happen.”
You breathed out in pure relief. “I will, maybe not now. I still need time...”
Chrome held out your hand and whisked you away into the crowd. “I hope you do it sooner,” Chrome's voice cracked, “Lee looks like he's ready to assault me when I'm asleep.”
By the time Chrome led you to the dancefloor, you realized something: enjoying the party was a complete understatement. The laughter rang in your ears as the food you ate filled your stomach. Fruity gossip — especially those about Hassen and Nikola — reached your ears, paired with the ever-growing amounts of wine you've consumed over the last hour. Or was it last few hours ago?
“Commandant,” in your drunken state, you still managed to hear the worry in Chrome's voice, “I think you should put the glass down...you drank too much.”
You shook your head, refusing to give your glass into the gentle pull of his hand, “I'm fine, I'm not drunk. Let me have one more...”
While earlier, you were worried about Lee and *that* particular disturbance in your mind, you were already dancing with the lights in your vision to care about those trivial matters; after all, the wine was too sweet to whisk you away from everything.
“Ah, Commandant, please.” Chrome's voice shook with uncertainty, “Lee is-”
“-Lee this, Lee that!” You exasperatedly groaned, pouting as you downed on the nth glass for the night, “To hell with him! You're my partner; just come on and dance with me!”
The captain couldn't stop you, as you excitingly dragged him by his necktie to the dancefloor, the crowd around you cheering. Yet the loudness couldn't even drown out your laughter, as you drunkenly danced around your 'partner'. The alcohol had long fogged your head, but you weren't blind to the way Chrome's intense gaze was on you the whole time. You felt his hands around you, from your shoulders to your waist.
As the music played a sensual bass, your eyes opened to look around. Dim lights, a shadow overhead of the chandelier's outline, the sea of people on the dancefloor. Songs of praises about how tomorrow was another day for heroes to save the future, words of congratulations that only passed through your ears. Amongst the beat of the music playing in the background, your heart was playing a different song — there, you saw the person you'd been ignoring, yet looking for all this time: Lee was laughing and smiling at the ladies that surrounded him.
For a moment, you seemed to have gone sober. Perhaps, this was your punishment; and you deserve that heartbreak. So, you closed your eyes and danced to the unfathomable soundtrack of the night, forever drifting in your drunken stupor.
“How alluring,” you were suddenly aware of how Chrome was already too close from comfort, breathe tickling your ears, “I should have known that you were a mastermind to such things like this.”
His hands bordered around the area of your hips. It tickled you, but you couldn't help but remember Lee's own hands gripping your hips like what happened—
“Commandant,” his voice dropped an octave lower, making your spine shiver, as he brought you even closer to his chest, “why must you be like this?”
Reality and imagination overlapped your consciousness; while someone else held your body, all you could see in that proximity was Lee in his place. Your heart was throbbing now, as your drunken thoughts only made you remember that certain day with Lee.
His breath fluttered in your ear. Wandering hands. A tight space.
All you could do was inhale in that moment, before the breath of fresh air slipped through your lungs.
A momentary shake clouded your already-drunk thoughts. The bright lights in the dim room flickered in your vision before you felt a broad surface collide with your body.
“...enough.” Frankly, you must've been stuck too long in a daydream that you imagined Lee's voice. But then again, it must not be because—
“....Commandant....too much....drink.”
You shook yourself awake. When you returned to your senses, Chrome was in front of you, looking disappointed above you, but not at you. All because Lee was the one behind you, hands gripping your shoulders.
“I've already told her that.” the captain scoffed, “we're only dancing. I'm taking her home already.”
“Right, says the man who was close enough to kiss her.” Lee's cold tone made you shiver your spine. You've never seen him this angry before.
“At least I have the guts to do so, unlike someone who's been a coward.”
Coward. That seemed to sum up yourself. Or the man holding you.
Wait.
“Lee,” you cried out a slur, alcohol coming back to consume you, “enough, Chrome didn't do anything wrong.”
The light of the chandelier blinded his features, making you unsure whether or not you'd seen Lee's face in the darkness. Pulling you away from the light and the crowd, you heard a shift in Lee's whisper, a softer tone, “I'll take you home, Commandant.”
“...wait,” a small whine escaped your lips, before your surroundings blurred into pure darkness, “Lee, hang on...”
Your eyes closed, your sense of hearing faded like your vision, yet you felt a pair of strong arms wrapped around you.
“Lee...my mac and cheese...”
Tumblr media
You remember that day.
A mission on Earth. The Gray Ravens were dispatched to help reclaim the piece of land vital to the operation's success. Alongside Strike Hawk, the two squads were sent without a hassle. Things were going very well until you and Lee somehow found yourselves cornered in one of the abandoned buildings.
You never expected yourself to be in that tight situation: a small dresser, with you and Lee stuck inside. You tried to awkwardly make the space comfortable enough still, but all the shifting and turning only made the situation worse.
“Commandant,” Lee breathed out after you tried to move your body, “I think you should stop...”
Sighing, you couldn't help but grow frustrated. “I could, but I think you're the one having trouble here. I don't want you to get back aches when we return to our base.”
“True, but...” he suddenly went silent, causing you to look at him, “this position is rather...”
“We don't have much of a choice then, I'm sorry, Lee. Don't worry; when we get back, I'll-”
Without missing a beat, Lee leaned forward, covering your mouth. Your eyes widened at the intrusion, eyebrows raised.
'There's someone out there'. He mouthed at you, still keeping his hand there.
As you listened to the creeping footsteps — one you identified as a corrupted — a small vibration, akin to a fluttering heartbeat, was heard thrumming alongside yours. You redirected your gaze from the small opening of the dresser, to Lee's focused stare to where you first looked.
A sharp jaw, clear and calculative cerulean irises that were curtained by his bangs, dimpled cheeks, soft-looking lips. You've known all this time that Lee was a handsome man, but have you ever looked at him like this? Have you ever stared at someone in a different light, that you want to kiss them?
“What?”
A startled question brought you back to reality. You caught him staring back at you with a wild, confused, yet curious expression written across his dainty features. You reeled yourself back — did you just say your thoughts out loud?!
“Um-” squeaking, you frantically shook your head, “n-no, I was just-”
Without hesitation, Lee leaned forward, one hand over the aide of your head, the other grasping your chin. In the middle of your hazy thoughts, you read an unfamiliar expression on Lee's face, this time, you could hear both of your hearts beating in sync.
“Pull away when you don't want to, Commandant.”
Sensing no imminent signs of restraint, you could only breathe in the moment Lee closed the gap between the both you.
And God, who would have known, his lips were soft.
Enough to drive you mad, enough to drive you insane. Greed corrupted your rational thoughts, blindingly wrapping your arms around Lee's neck and grasped his hair, as if afraid he'd be dragged away. But he wasn't; instead, he pulled you closer, holding you by your waist.
The only antagonist that appeared in your play was oxygen. Pulling away, a small whine escaped your lips. But it did grant you a sight: Lee's disheveled hair and swollen lips. The fire in your stomach did not disappear; instead, it ignited even more.
“...more.” you muttered through shallow, shaky breaths, “I want...more.”
The taste of him felt trivial, yet it made your appetite appear itself. You wished to be devoured, to succumb to his strength alone — but it didn't seem enough.
Yet, you were afraid to be rejected. However, much to your dilemma, a faint smile appeared amongst the unfamiliar expression on Lee's face.
“As you wish, then.”
Lee hoisted you up to his lap, before closing the gap. Your hunger clashed with his as you kissed him with more fervor, breathing in his mouth, touching wherever your hands could reach.
As you moved in his lap, you suddenly felt something rub down there. Peeking as you gasped for air, you noticed a bulge sitting eagerly on Lee's middle. Experimentally moving upwards, you heard Lee's breathy groan in your ear.
“Commandant...” his tone was a warning, but your hunger was insatiable, opting to thrust yourself in a languid motion.
“Do you,” you held out a shaky inhale, pleasure clouding your senses, “do you like that?”
He grasped your hips, eliciting a small whine from you. “do it properly, Commandant.”
“No.” You grunted, slowly rubbing yourself on him, “you should call me properly when you want me to.”
A low growl came from his lips to your ear, a shiver that went directly down to your aching core. You tried to hold back a low moan, when the grip on your hips tightened even more, before he flawlessly guided you on him.
“Alright then, [Y/N].” He groaned in your ear, making you gasp as he directed you instead, “two can play at this game.”
Before you could finish what you've dreamt of, you jolted whenever you were laying on, breathing heavily from the dream's impact.
Coming back to reality, you felt your head throb mercilessly, groaning from the pain. When you opened your eyes, a dark room welcomed you back, with the faint light of day haloing the windows. You also noticed yourself on a bed you've known all this time, the sheets smelling like musk. Confirming that you were still wearing the dress you wore the last time, you were safe to say that nothing bad happened. At least, the decency of the blanket that covered you.
...wait, that wasn't your blanket. Nor was this room.
Panic filled you as you scrambled to get out of the bed with a raging headache, but a familiar voice somehow calmed your nerves.
“Relax, you're in my room.”
Breathing a sigh of relief, you turned to your side to see Lee, still wearing the suit from last night, sitting on a chair beside the bed, a small screwdriver and a little toy in hand. You recognized it as the little robot he had built for you, a stray thought that made you believe he must have finished tinkering with it.
“Lee...”
“There's a hangover drink on the table beside you, along with the mac and cheese you requested.”
The drink was expected. But mac and cheese?
“Um...”
“Before you passed out, you called out to me for your forgotten mac and cheese. And threw a fit when I said no.”
You cringed. Pretending to look away from Lee, you silently took the drink and ate the freshly prepared food with a muttered "thank you". No thoughts — other than the raging headache — could come to mind, except for the tasty food that somehow satiated your hunger. But you were thankful, even though the creeping sense of dread and embarrassment filled your tired body. After finishing the food, you slowly got ready to get out of the bed.
“Well, um, thank you for the meal, I will probably just go back to the party now.”
“The party ended hours ago. You were asleep for eight hours.”
You looked at the bedside table to see the illuminated clock, signaling it was 10:42. You awkwardly chuckled, still avoiding Lee's intense gaze.
“O-oh...well, that's a shame. I guess I'll go back to my office, then. I will be finishing the do-”
“-I finished them for you while you were busy drooling on my bed.”
You contorted your face in disdain. This bastard...
“I guess I also still need to go, I need to talk to Lu-”
“-if you are talking about the favor Lucia asked you, I already did it for you.”
Your mind started to race once more, deciding that the only thing Lee should face was your bare back and not your disappointed face as you finally ran out of excuses. Opting out the last option, you stood from the bed, and sprinted to the door.
“...bye Lee!”
Freedom awaited you. Or you thought so. Because you only came in contact with Lee's chest instead. Looking up, annoyance written across your features, as Lee stared down at you, expresionless.
“I need to go, Lee. Please let me pass.”
“What is the rush, Commandant? I already did all the things I knew you'd use as an excuse.”
“I'm not making excuses!” Liar. Embarrassment and anger flushed your puffed cheeks, “I really need to go!”
“I'll let you go,” enlightenment filled your poor soul, “only when you tell me one thing.”
“Say it.”
“Why are you ignoring me.”
Why are you ignoring Lee? Simple. You didn't want to finish while you're drowning in the fear.
“I refuse to answer.”
“Then I'm not letting you go out.”
“Why do you want to know?” You exasperatedly sigh, glaring at Lee, “I thought you'd stop this charade.”
“Are you telling that to me, or are you telling that to yourself?”
Both of you glared at each other. He may be taller in height, but your pride refused to back down. “To you. I'm already honest.”
“I know you're not. You don't think I don't notice what you've been doing?”
In a sudden motion, Lee grasped your shoulder ever so gently, cerulean irises looking at you softly. “Why are you ignoring me, Commandant?”
“I'm not...”
“or should I call you [Y/N]?”
The way he spoke of your name made you weak in the knees. Flustered, you turned your back on him, approaching the bed.
“I'm not going to talk to you, Lee.”
“Alright, should I enumerate the things you've been doing then?”
You refused to answer.
“You never even look at me ever since we came back from the retrieval operation. Whenever I'm in the room, you always try to leave.”
The moments when you've done what Lee mentioned came to mind. You internally cringed.
“You told Chrome to be your partner, even though we already established that I'll be the one to accompany you, and Chrome didn't even know.”
Memories of last night resurfaced. The amount of wine you've drank, the music, the way Lee held you — no, that wasn't Lee. That wasn't supposed to be...
“Are you ignoring me because you are running away after what happened to us down on Earth?”
“N-no, I-”
“-then why are you running away from me?”
You turned to see Lee already behind you, eyes looking like they were close to tearing up. You couldn't help but feel your heart break into a million pieces, as the cracks of Lee's emotionless façade started to appear across his features.
“Won't you tell me?”
Your heart betrayed you.
“This is purely professional.” You breathed out, “constructs and commandants should not have a romantic relationship with each other. We already listed our names in Death's checklist, and anytime, death would reclaim us in this neverending fight; whether I succumb to the natural death or you succumb to the punishing virus.”
“Your point?”
“I-” you choked on your suddenly overwhelming tears, “I cannot accept what happened to us down there. I can't risk putting our feelings first when our duty calls.”
You looked at him, breathing in your tears, “what if I lose you?”
The dam of unspoken feelings finally broke down. You've put a lot of thought into it; the fear of losing Lee as a lover, as your construct, as your teammate, as your friend. What goes beyond the weapons and glory, you feared what happens when one of you either dies or succumbs to the virus?
With a gentle coo of your name, Lee leaned closer to cup your cheeks, his thumb caressing away the tears that were falling from your eyes.
“We cannot stop that. I know. I have already seen the futures; but should that really be the reason for us to be apart? To simply be my commandant, and I, as your construct?”
You thought it to be the answer. But Lee proved you wrong.
“I can't do that. I don't want us to be just like that. [Y/N], I feel the same; I can't imagine myself without you in this life.”
No words spoken to you other than what Lee told you made you breakdown like this: crumbling into the bed, the overwhelming feelings of the future consuming your thoughts. But Lee, he cradled you into his arms, soft sweet nothing muttered as he kissed the crown of your head.
“I like you. I like you so much that I am afraid to lose you in this life, that I want to be close to you all the time, I don't want you to pick anyone else; I need you. I'll love you all the time, I will keep you safe from everything.”
Kneeling to your crouching frame, he cupped your cheeks with a small smile on his face, “that's why I'll stay alive for you, I love you, [Y/N].”
Your feelings are incomparable to the confession you've heard from Lee. You felt the same; you'd devote yourself to him, you—
“I love you too, Lee.” You confessed, taking the hand on your cheek to your lips for a kiss, a choked sob signifying your truth, “I'll stay alive with you, for as long as we can.”
Without hesitation, Lee leaned forward, a hair's breadth away from your lips.
“I want to kiss you.” Lee muttered, “Pull away when you don't want to, [Y/N].”
This time, you were the one to pull him into the kiss. Fervor and hunger awakened deep inside you once more, devouring whatever Lee could give as he kissed you back deeply, pushing you onto the bed. You taste the wine you drank last night, you inhaled the musk Lee was wearing; everything drowns you in its mere presence.
You could stay like that with Lee forever: tangled in each other's arms, breathing into each other's mouths. But the way his leg slotted in the middle of your hips made you feral; greedily grinding like how you've done to him down on Earth. He fueled your hunger more, bouncing his leg to your rhythm, making you moan onto his lips.
Was it the alcohol making you like this? Or were you getting drunk just from Lee's ministrations?
“You are eager,” Lee chuckled, pulling away, making you whine. He watched you with interested eyes as you tried to get off with only his leg. “I should have known you're like a slut.”
The degradation only made you even more turned on. Pouting, you whined as you tried to pull on his suit. “Take that off and touch me more, please...”
“You think you deserve it, after acting like a brat?”
Without a warning, his fingers found your drenched core, making you whine from sensitivity. He laughed, “already wet, even though you were just grinding on my leg.”
“Lee, please,” you grinded on his hand, back arched, “more...please.”
He leaned in to kiss you, fingers still rubbing your wet panties. Pulling away, he fumbled with the ties on your dress, “I wanted to tear this off of you, but I think I'll spare the fuss of destroying such a pretty dress on you.”
He expertly took off the top part of the dress, exposing your bare breasts. You forgot you didn't even wear a bra, so you tried to hide yourself from Lee's hungry gaze.
“Don't,” you whined as he slapped your pussy, “don't shy away from me now.”
From your lips, he was now devouring the left part of your breast. Temporarily abandoning your soaked core, he played with your other breast. Oh, the way he was playing with you was driving you insane — you were sure you were wetting the bed all from his ministrations.
One hand covering your mouth to suppress your embarrassing noises and the other tugging on Lee's locks, you were desperate for something to fill your neglected hole down there already.
“Stop covering your mouth,” Lee scolded as he rose, a shiver running down your spine, “let me hear you calling for me, [Y/N].”
Effortlessly, he manhandled you to the center of the bed, teasingly looking at you as he slowly unbuttons his suit. Annoyed, you fumbled with unbuttoning his trousers.
“Stop teasing,” you whined, “hurry up, Lee, please.”
Begging was never an option, but desperation clawed at your throat, the knot in your stomach begging to be fulfilled. Lee only chuckled at your situation.
“You're so cute, Commandant, if only they know how much of a needy little whore you are behind these walls.”
Fuck. This bastard knew what he was doing. Kneeling in front of your now-closed legs, he effortlessly pried them open. Taking his precious little time taking your soaking panties off, threads of your essence sticking, you could hear a soft groan from the man.
“God, how are you so wet already, [Y/N]?”
A finger teasingly traced your slit, making your back arch. “L-Lee...”
You made a mistake in looking up; he was already close to your aching pussy, blowing a small breath on it. Your eyes met as he proceeded to kiss your wet core — eliciting a moan from you.
“Fuck.”
One last curse from Lee made your hole flutter around nothing. He smirked in response, “such a pretty little pussy for me to see, hm?”
And with that, he opened his mouth to your pussy. And fuck, indeed. It felt so overwhelmingly good — his mouth sucking on your hole, thumb twiddling with your shaking nub. You couldn't keep your eyes off from Lee's focused expression; you couldn't lie, it felt too fucking good. The way his mouth now moved to suck on your clit, fingers prodding to enter your fluttering core.
“God, fuck, [Y/N], stop squirming. If I can't prep you now, how are you going to take something bigger?”
Your hazy mind blanked out. Bigger? A broken moan came out of your mouth then, when you felt two of his fingers enter your leaking hole. Back arching when he rhythmically fucked you with only his fingers. How was it even possible — to already feel so goddamn full with just two fingers?
“Pretty,” he cooed, looking at your writhing figure, “who would have thought I'd be the only one to see you like this? To see you moaning like a needy slut?”
The knot in your stomach was close to snapping now, Lee could tell in the way you're pathetically moaning his name and how you pulled his hair. In kind, he maintained his pace, coaxing out the orgasm out of you.
“L-Lee, I-”
“Do it, [Y/N].” Lee muttered between your folds, “cum for me.”
With one more broken moan, you came over Lee's mouth, clamping your legs around his head. Lee didn't even flinch — he fucked you through your orgasm.
When you came back from cloud nine, you could make out Lee's figure, haloed by the light from the windows. You felt his hand cupping your cheeks, before leaning down to kiss you. You could taste yourself on his lips; salty, sticky, but it never fazed you.
You opened your eyes to find his own, looking at you with such reverence, that if you hadn't paid attention to your surroundings, that you wouldn't have noticed something hard rubbing on your slit down below. You peered down as Lee fondled your chest, and your eyes widened —
“Lee,” you whimpered, “you're so big...how are you going to fit that in me...?”
A small laugh passed through his lips. Down there, you underestimated the size you initially thought, but never took into consideration what it would have looked like when clothes are off. In response, the tip of his cock, smeared with what seemed to be pre-cum, making you jolt from the pulsating contact.
“You can take it,” he hummed as he leaned to your ear, licking the space underneath it, his breath tickling every part of your ear before lightly biting your earlobe, “if not, then we'll make it fit. You're a good girl, aren't you? You'll take it well, won't you?”
The cockhead was then playing with your swollen clit, and all you could do was to moan in response, hands gripping the sheets tightly, “I-I...I will try.”
“I'll be careful,” Lee kissed your ear, before pecking your lips, “your safe word is zero.”
Gently, he tried to guide his hardened member to your hungry hole. You mewled in pain, as the cockhead came through your folds. God, it stung: how it was already stretching you more than his fingers, but Lee wasn't even halfway through.
“Relax,” he grunted, whispering in your ear, “you should- ah, relax. You're too tense.”
Even so, Lee tried to comfort you, as he tried to push his dick further in, with your moans getting louder. In an attempt to ground you, he gripped you by the hips — before breathing in, and pushed further.
Your pussy spasmed at the intrusion. And all Lee could do was groan in your ear. “[Y/N], you're so warm...so tight. Breathe with me, relax.”
A strangled moan escaped your lips, but Lee closed the gap, just to calm you down. He let you adjust to his length that was now sheathed inside you, but God, it was too warm, too wet, too good inside. If you were going insane with him inside of you, then he's close to losing his mind to ramming you to oblivion.
But like the good man he was, Lee bit back those urges, even as your legs trembled and hooked by his hips.
“I'm going to move now,” he muttered, “I'm- ah, tell me...if you're uncomfortable, use the safeword.”
You might have been drunk over the alcohol, but no wine could compare to the pleasure that was drowning you profusely. Too fucked out to care, Lee began to shallowly thrust into you. There was slight pain as he started to move, but it eventually subsided, paired with his subtle touches on your body here and there. Finally, he bottomed out inside of you.
“Lee,” you babbled, “Lee.”
“I'm here,” he kissed your lips, one hand gripping your thigh, the other on your hips, “are you okay?”
“You feel so good,” you mewled when he thrusted deeply, back arching, “wan' more...I wan' more please.”
Who was he to deny you? Maintaining the pace, he held you by the back of your thighs, raising them to his shoulders. You were completely helpless now — the way he was pressing you onto the mattress, the world spinning around you as he was drilling so goddamn deep onto you. It didn't take long for Lee to find that one spongy spot that made you see beyond the stars in Babylonia.
“Lee-” you cried out his name, breasts bouncing from how he bullied that spot in you, “Morian-”
That made him stop. Looking down to see your fucked out state, he gripped your hips to shake you awake. “what did you call me?”
You froze. A shiver ran down your spine, only making you open your mouth. “Morian...?”
The gears in Lee's mind started to work. So that's what it was like: to be called by someone you love, your real name on their lips. For the very first time after being a construct, Lee felt human. Very human, that the proof was right there in front of him, being one with him. It drove him wild — his dick fervently pulsating inside of you.
“Say. It. Again,” he punctuated every word with every thrust, “say my real name again, [Y/N].”
You mewled out in pleasure. “M-Morian!”
That newfound energy throbbed inside of Lee, causing him to ram you deeper and harder onto the mattress. There, you babbled “Morian, Morian” like a prayer, and Lee could only growl in your ear as a response.
And such, you felt another knot in your stomach close to coming undone. Through tears in your eyes, you called out, “M-Morian, I'm c-close...”
“So am I.” He smiled at you, gentle hands clasping with your clammy ones, “we'll come together then.”
Reaching out to rub your neglected nub, your orgasm is closer than you thought. With one last look at Lee's glinting cerulean irises, his mouth moved faster.
“Cum.”
Mind-blowing pleasure corrupted your mind, as you came over Lee's cock. A frothy white ring creamed on Lee's pulsating dick as he fucked you through your orgasms.
Lee thought you looked like the prettiest person alive as you came. Easing you through, he kissed and caressed every part of your body — cheeks, clavicle, chest, stomach. Soon enough, as you both came down from your highs, heavy breathing filled the room. You were about to wiggle out of Lee's grasp, when he held your hips. Looking tiredly at Lee's smiling face, a dreaded realization came over you.
“We're not yet done, [Y/N].” He whispered, his dick that was still inside you throbbing, “I still need to show you how much I love you.”
Before that, a creaking sound happened before you felt the mattress dip into the floor.
You're fucked indeed.
Tumblr media
The afternoon was a pretty time to see nice sights around Babylonia. Still drunk over last night's festivities, the constructs you've known decided to take a stroll around the place.
Bianca and Karenina were sitting on one side of the table, munching on the food they brought. Wanshi, Kamui, Camu, and Chrome were at the center, minding their own business.
“Commandant went home early, didn't she?” Bianca asked the surrounding constructs.
“That was past 11 pm though,” Karenina sighed, polishing the inver-device she had been carrying around, “I heard she was pretty drunk already.”
“Wasn't she with you the whole night, Chrome?” Said Bianca, “did you take her home?”
Chrome, with a disappointed expression on his face, shook his head. Opting to drink the glass he held, he muttered, “I was, but Lee took her...”
From a distance, Kamui waved to the appearing new constructs. “Lucia! Liv! Perfect timing!”
Even before the two Gray Ravens could sit down, an annoyed and confused expression is written across the team leader's face. “I already received a report that a bed in our dorm needs to be fixed...”
“Huh,” Wanshi perked up, yawning, “why'd the bed break? Did something happen?”
“No idea.” Liv sighed, “No one else was at our dorm...”
Kamui looked around, “where's Lee and the Commandant?”
“I haven't seen Lee since last night.” Lucia spoke, to which Liv also shook her head.
“Were you talking about us?”
A voice spoke from behind. The group turned to see Lee, and you beside him. Awkwardly smiling and waving, you sheepishly greeted, “Hello, sorry guys. I had a major hangover.”
“The commandant couldn't get out of bed. I had to look over her.”
Everyone around them was cheering, except for Chrome, who secretly ticked his jaw.
“Good to know you're alright, Commandant! Come and join us!”
You walked to where Liv and Lucia were, but you were flinching, as if in pain. In a heartbeat, your members went beside you, but Lee already had his arm around your waist.
“Commandant? Are you alright? What happened to you?”
“I'm fine!” you smiled and waved at Lucia, “just a little sore from...the heels I wore last night. I tripped while I was wearing them back home.”
“I got her, don't worry.” Lee cooly said.
Soon enough, you and Lee were settled nicely in the group. All of you talked about duties, the celebrations and other things under Babylonia's guiding light.
Everyone thinks the relationship between a construct and their commandant is purely professional; the latter exuding orders to be executed by the former, the war they face, the blood the had and have to shed — all for the sake of survival and success of the mission. In the end, glory and honor awaits those who return to Babylonia.
However, beyond the exemplary titles and glimmering medals of valor, no one knows what happens behind those walls.
For example — they never saw the way Lee's fingers curled on your thigh.
Or the way he looked at you as the group spoke.
“[Y/N],” he whispered. You gazed at him, before taking and squeezing his hand.
Lee leaned on you, his breath tickling your ear, sending butterflies to your core. “Don't forget about tonight.”

More protective dragon slayers please? 🙏
Gray watching the slayers hang out and go on jobs together: :(
Gray after being ‘adopted’: :| (secretly loving it)
Sting considering putting a gps chip on Gray only to find Juvia’s one already there and getting mad.
Sting: How dare she!
Gray: how dare you!
Wendy being the most protective.
Slayers getting jealous of Gray hanging out with Lyon. (Just wait until Natsu tells them about Galuna island).
Rogue uses Frosch to trick Gray into therapy
Someone comments on Gray’s nudity/makes suggestive comments and Wendy gets mad. Wendy: He’s too young!
My personal headcannon is that memento mori made Gray more demon so he’s got a bit of a taste for blood. He was going to keep it secret but after defeating Avatar one of the members were like ‘they’ll never accept you. You’re a monster!’.
Also that Avatar messed Gray up. He just casually mentions his initiation (ie torture) or Briar and Jerome being a bit too friendly, or not being able to get out a blood stain. And everyone is just wtf?
Sorry for the ramble! It’s just nice to get these ideas out
don’t apologize! i love seeing other peoples hcs!
i refer to the dragon slayers dragon as it or they bc i classify it as kind of a separate entity? same with grays demon
More dragon slayers beinng protective of gray for the soul! (these are more just them and gray hcs i have, but the protectiveness is implied)
TW IMPLIED SEXUAL HARRASSMENT
its a lot so vv
Gray gets sick a lot, and its never just a simple cold or small fever, its always smth vaguely serious
and the dragons absolutely despise it, they also despise that its not something they can just destroy
Every time Gray gets sick all their inner dragons are immediately running in circles with the need to make him feel better
He sniffles once or gets a tiny scrape and theres a multitude of crashes and yelling to find blankets, med kits, and trying to find the best spot for him to sit down at
Wendy is extra feral and protective during these times
(which is saying a lot bc her dragon is definitely the most protective normally, whether bc its young or bc theyre a healer so thats their job to protect doesnt matter, it just is)
she has bitten people for getting too close (ie. within 40 ft) to them, even if theyre in a public place
Shes also forgotten shes a healer multiple times bc her dragon was so hellbent on the good old fashioned hands on approach
During one of the times he was bedridden at home, they found an book with Isvan style recipes in it, then proceeded to try and make something from it
they failed, they are complicated recipes and they probably wouldve failed home ec
but its the thought that counts and count it did bc Gray practically threw himself at them in a hug when they told him what they tried to do
GOING OFF THE HC OF DEVIL SLAYERS SLEEPING A LOT THING LIKE CATS (ty @bluneko91 for the idea) i think Gray in general has always been the type to sleep anywhere and everywhere
but now he can actually easily get to those hard to reach places and nap, and hes a menace with it
a weekly occurrence at the Fairy Tail guild is half the dragon slayers frantically searching for their demon slayer, looking in his past usual haunts (at the bar, on a table, under a table, makarovs office, on the stairs somewhere, the more random the more likely)
only for him to be found on the rafters 100 ft off the ground
when they find him they have about a good 7 seconds of peace before they verge yet another cardiac event bc holy shit oh god hes gonna fall!!
another common scene is Gray sleeping (in less dangerous places) and having various token dragon slayer clothes covering him
The dragons asking Gray if he wants to go on a job with them, only for him to (reluctantly) decline bc Lyon is in town and they have plans
then proceeding to sulk the whole job
Natsu was sulking the most, and spilt what happened on Galuna
and suddenly Lyon and Gray had 5 fuming dragons following them
(and if Lyon got graphic threats if he ever fucked up again he never said anything)
Gray is a hit of a wanderer, not in a ‘getting lost/bad at directions’ way, but in a ‘likes to see the scenery/has a feeling and doesnt voice it, just goes with it’ kinda way
Hes done this enough times and is quiet enough about it the others dont realize till hes gone
On one of the jobs he took with Rogue & Sting they half jokingly and half seriously threaten him with a tracker
and Gray says that Juvia probably already has one of him
Rogue and Sting not having a whole lot of context on that asks what he means, and then gets a disturbing account of some of the things shes done
Lets just say the feelings they harbor for her and for the people who let it continue are neither kind nor pretty
they probably ripped the other slayers a new one when they got back
Contrary to popular belief, ice mages can get cold, it takes a hell of a lot more than an average person but it does happen.
Gray probs mentioned this once and now when it rains or snows-
Laxus throws his coat at Gray, Natsu offers to share his scarf and using his fire to warm him up, Rogue drapes his cloak around him
its a very soft image and i needed to share it
Gray starting to push the other slayers away bc hes struggling with his demon instincts and because hes scared hes going to become a monster and hurt them
them not taking any of that shit
reassuring him that he would never become something cruel and evil
hes becoming a demon, hes not a monster, not a murderer
Ppl are frequently gross about Grays stripping habit
its one of the only things that made him genuinely try to stop
People tend to think since hes so obviously confident in his body that its okay to touch him whenever and however they want
the dragon slayers are inclined to disagree
Gajeel breaking some guys arm after he wouldnt keep his hands to himself
Laxus spilling water on someone whose personal dictionary didnt include ‘No’ then repeatedly shocked them until they werent in reach
Wendy having to be (reluctantly, they just dont want her to get in trouble tbh) held back when someone keeps making comments on his body after he told them to fuck off
that did not stop her from giving them the worst insults and threats anybody has ever heard
[if she went back to find them again nobody would know, i mean, and they were perfectly intact! not a scratch on them! and who was gonna believe that a sweet girl like her would harm anybody?:)]
Gray has been threatened with being wrapped in bubble wrap after being injured so many times, which is crazy considering its Natsu of all people who says it
They have gotten really comfortable with eachother
and i mentioned once smth abt the slayers having little private hang outs (jobs or normal get together or ‘meeting’ type things at guilds)
during one of these he casually mentioned what he had to endure to be accepted into Avatar
“yeah, they locked me in a kiln like room for hours every couple days”
jaw drops galore
“i beg your fucking pardon.”
“oh yeah, dw tho, it usually overlapped with the deprivations days so i wasnt fully aware of what was going on, didnt even hurt”
“THE FUCKING WHAT”
*increasing volume of worried and angry sounds*
I think Natsu is also a total cat magnet, so when Gray is having an off day he’ll go in search for a cat
when they approach him, he picks them up and drops them in Grays lap and waits
it always helps him feel better
im trying to imagine Gray getting a date and them all trying to discreetly spy on it
“Gaj, the pole doesnt exactly hide y—“
“SSHH THEYLL HEAR YOU—!”
OH MY GOD IMAGINE THE SHOVEL TALKS
sorry this took a minute!! i have a lot to say but not enough words

y'all really think we don't know coriolanus snow, son of crassus xanthos snow, is a (future) dictator and mass murderer who is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, the vast majority of whom are children, including finnick odair??? y'all really think we don't know that even as a youth he's already a controlling, narcissistic, scheming, calculating, traitorous son of a bitch?
you've severely underestimated our powers of media literacy, and also of knowing the difference between reality and fucking fiction.

Lucy Gray Baird saw one hint of a red flag in Coriolanus Snow and, though he had done anything in his power to save her in the Games, and she knows this, she still immediately ran away from him without looking back.
Sejanus Plinth witnessed Coriolanus Snow brutally murder one of the tributes, yes in self-defense, but also striking that one final hit that was completely unnecessary and simply because of the power he felt (you can even see the shock in Sejanus' eyes at that), he knows his hate for the Districts and for the rebels, and still thought it was a good idea to follow him to District 12 because "he's his best friend", and no matter how much he kept fucking up Sejanus kept staying by his side, and was yet shocked Coriolanus betrayed him.
Tag yourself I'm Sejanus

lie to me
Tumblr media
harrison; 1,872 words; fluff and a bit of angst; fem!reader a/n: in which harrison tells you five lies and just as many truths
01.
“lie to me.”
“i love you.”
“ah, but that’s an easy one — how could you be in love with someone you just met, right?”
you smile, lacing your fingers under your chin as he looks you over, the smile on your lips simple and sweet and somehow unsettling in its simplicity. there’s something hidden there — he knows it. he just doesn’t know exactly what it is yet and… that in and of itself is intriguing enough to warrant a second glance, a second’s pause.
“go on, isn’t this supposed to be what you’re good at?” you ask, cocking your head, your eyes never leaving his.
harrison feels himself being drawn into you, the unflinching way you meet his gaze, the seemingly indomitable nature of your curiosity, your striking, painful honesty. ah — so is that what it is? has he gotten so used to the truth hidden beneath the lies that seeing truth hidden behind another veneer of truth has become strange? certainly, it’s not something he sees everyday but…
“alright then — i don’t love you, but i think that maybe i could —”
eh?
you blink, but harrison is already pursing his lips with a shrug, pushing up from where he’d been sitting across from you, your coffee mugs still steaming.
“there, ponder that one for a while, hm?” he grins, shooting a lazy wink your way, “and… that confused look on your face… i don’t hate it, y’know.”
02.
“lie to me.”
“my favorite color is yellow.”
“well, mine’s green.”
harrison looks up at you from across a piece of perfectly buttered toast, his mouth halfway open, watching as you slather your slice of toast in a truly impressive amount of jam. you’re humming to yourself and when you glance up to find him watching you, you shrug.
“what?”
harrison smiles, shaking his head, “nothing. just… ah — nevermind.”
“no, tell me.” you take a huge bite of toast and he can’t help the way his eyes snag on the smear of jam on your lower lip or the way your tongue sweeps out to lick it up.
“nope. don’t wanna.” he takes his own rather large bite of toast, washing it down with a sip of coffee that’s just a bit too hot.
“even if i say ‘please’?”
harrison pauses, considers. and then he smiles.
“for a second there, i just thought you were… cute.”
your blush makes something warm and tight unfurl in his chest. but you narrow your eyes and the tension inside his chest lightens ever so slightly.
“saah… was that a lie or was it the truth?” he muses, reaching out to tap a finger to the center of your forehead, making you blink, “well, you can believe whatever you want to believe. i don’t mind it either way.”
03.
“lie to me.”
“i actually don’t really like lying.”
you pause over the still-warm cranberry scones, your hand hovering over the butter dish.
“then why do you do it?”
harrison licks his lips, his eyes fixed on yours. he feels the beginnings of something cresting from his stomach up into his chest, over his shoulders, down the length of his back. it’s a strange thing, a nearly foreign sensation. but it leaves his whole body a mess a livewire tingles, and it makes him wonder about stupid things like truth and trust and belonging.
“because… it’s easy, i suppose.”
you nod, slowly breaking off a corner of a scone, and applying a liberal amount of butter to it before offering it to him. on the windowsill, there’s a vase full of bright yellow tulips, freshly picked and watered.
“my parents always said that if you tell a lie enough times, it starts to sound like the truth.”
“hm… they sound like smart people.” he reaches out to take the bit of proffered scone, popping it into his mouth and savoring the sweetness.
you watch him with a grin, “they were.”
a moment passes, and then another; harrison reaches for the sugar bowl at the same time you do and your hands brush. you pause; so does he. and then — laughter, as he pushes the bowl towards you and you shake your head, nudging it back.
“three sugars, right?” you ask, watching as he drops the cubes into his coffee and stirs.
“what can i say? i’ve got something of a sweet-tooth.”
“yeah. i know you do.”
04.
“lie to me… please — t-tell me everything’s gonna be okay.”
there’s blood everywhere, and the world is around you is a blur of rain and shadows. the streetlamps cast the air in a hazy glow and it would be beautiful, if it weren’t so deeply, horrifyingly terrible.
you cradle harrison to your chest, a hand pressed to the side of his stomach, where a sickeningly hot stream of blood is pouring from a bullet wound, your other hand holding his head upright.
“i — i think i’m gonna die,” he says, forcing a weak smile as he raises a hand to cup your cheek.
“h-harry! that’s not — that’s not funny —” but you can’t help the watery laugh that bubbles from your lips.
“you — you told me to lie to you… right? so…”
you bite back a sob even as it rips itself from your throat and you shake your head.
“y’know… you’ve gotten s-so bad at this…”
harrison’s own laughter is stuttered through with coughs. more blood, painting the soft of his lips so bright it almost looks like lipstick or strawberry jam. you reach up your hand to wipe it away, smearing the red across his cheeks.
he catches your hand in his, and the cliché of the moment hits you like a runaway train, veering off it’s tracks — the rain, the blood, the falling in love.
“what… at lying? ah… i guess that’s true… hey… look at me…” he presses his blood-stained lips to your hand before resting it along his cheek, holding it there even as more blood gurgles out of the side of his mouth. you try to tug your hand to wipe it away but he holds you tight, holds you dear.
“there you are…” he says, his eyes flickering over the plains of your face, “i su-suppose you might make an honest man of me yet…”
you shake your head again, fervent and desperate.
“no — i d-don’t want that — harry, please — you can’t —”
“m-my favorite color… didn’t used to be yellow… but now it is… and… i never did like lying… but i hated doing it to you… and… i never thought i could fall in love but… here i am… so there — i — i think that’s most of them —”
“harry, what are y-you doing?”
“i’m… telling you the truth. now… your turn — lie… lie to me.”
you let out another sob as you see the light from his eyes slowly fading, even as the distant sounds of shouting alert you to the ambulance racing your way.
“i-if you die, i swear to god, harry — i’ll chase you right into the gates of hell and pull you back with me —”
harrison laughs, his hand falling from yours, his lashes fluttering as his gaze goes wide and glazed.
“now that’s a lie… i’d be happy to believe…”
05.
when harrison next wakes up, it’s to a nearly pitch-black hospital room and a solid weight somewhere to his right. he lets out a soft groan and looks down to find… you, with your face pillowed on your arms, fast asleep by his bedside.
“she’s been here for three whole days.” victor’s voice is light but for once devoid of it’s usual levity.
“ah… of course she has.” harrison reaches out to run his fingers through your hair, a smile stretching his lips at the way your brows furrow slightly, your body shifting as he traces a thumb along the contours of your cheek.
“try not to excite her too much… she’s barely been eating or sleeping so who know’s — her heart might give out if you give her too big of a shock.” and with that, victor tips his head and slips from the room, leaving the two of you very much alone.
harrison revels in the quiet, in the patient pace of your breaths, the rise and fall of his own chest, his own miraculous heartbeat mapped in bright green spikes on a screen to his left. and he wonders briefly how quickly it’d have to beat before it would alert the nurses but —
“h-harry? oh… oh my god — you’re awake!”
“hm… really? ah, and here i was, thinking this was all a dream.”
you bury your face in his chest, gasping when he winces, but he chuckles and tugs you back towards him, his seafoam eyes so bright even in the relative darkness.
“i — i thought…”
“what? that i was dead? c’mon… i’m not that easy to get rid of.”
you bite your lips, shake your head, your eyes welling up with tears as you once again bury your face in his chest, this time careful to avoid his still tender wounds. he hushes you as you hiccup, running a soothing hand through your hair, down the back of your neck.
“i’m just… so glad y-you’re alive…”
harrison grins, cocking his head as you pull back to look at him, your eyes wide and watery and so, so beautiful. it’s unfair, he decides, that you should still look so daringly beautiful like this.
“come here… there’s something i need to tell you…”
you blink at him for a moment before allowing him to beckon you closer, to wrap his arms around you and skim his lips by your cheek till he’s whispering in your hear —
“i… i don’t love you… not even a little bit.”
and for a second, you freeze, your whole body going cold, but when you pull back, there’s a smile on harrison’s lips that makes you roll your eyes. you let out a soft little sigh, pillowing your cheek on his chest as he absently brushes a strand of hair behind your ear.
“wow… when did you become such a terrible liar?”
at this, harrison laughs, and he hisses at the pain but he doesn’t stop laughing, and a moment later you join him, and the pair of you fall into the waves and waves of laughter until he tilts your chin up to press his lips to yours.
“if i had to guess…” he muses as he pulls back, running the pad of his thumb along your bottom lip, his eyes flickering from your kiss-bruised mouth up to your shock-widened eyes and back down again, a distinctly fox-like grin stretching his lips.
“i’d say that it was the day that i met you.”

Sometimes i just think about about the way Allen lied to every single person he has ever met, BUT he has such a feral wet cat energy and WILL try to help you even if he’s falling apart
That both Kanda and Link who very explicitly was said are able to see that he’s lying, went from “i could not care less for the little clown” to “i will rise back from the dead for him and will follow him to the end of the earth” is so insane
They have no business simping that hard but i love it for them
