Masquerade Riddle has my entire heart! I always imagine him waltzing on rooftops and following his beloved through the night, like a rizzed up V (v for Vendetta) and causing destruction ( read: bringing Order ) to everyone that gets in the way of him getting to his beloved! 🥵
On thats Note! Masquerade Tako my beloved! I was honestly not expecting him to give off so much rizz in his outfit, I feel like his cards are always very good but there’s always a hint of ‘pathetic babygirl’ in them, but for some reason in his masquerade card I just get ‘slimy suitor out to steal your heart by any means possible’ (which is an excellent and addictive addition, may I add 😤)
Anyway, just wanted to share my thoughts on them, how has your week been so far? Staying healthy I hope!
YES, THAT IS EXACTLY THE VISION!!! OTL omg and maybe he’s a little devious, too. Waltzing with you on the rooftop and lowering you into a dip and your foot catches on a roof tile, but he’d never let you fall (he says he could, though, and it’s a very morbid jest) but he holds firm and !!!! >_< framed by moonlight and with an air of anonymity, and he has such a cheeky smirk on his face. AAAA it’s such a good image to think of! This version of Riddle is just so lovely. <3 the sly type who can have a confidence boost when cloaked in a mask and swathed in starlight.
Aaaa masquerade Azul… ♡( ´▽`) there’s something about him that has me swooning. I’ll admit when I first saw his card many months ago the breath was punched out of me. I was thinking, is this really Azul????? He’s just so rizzy for once and it was a welcome surprise. I was happy to place him as my laptop background image hehe (although birthday Azuzu has now taken residence there). You’re so right when you say he gives off slimy suitor vibes. It’s the smirk and that lofty smugness he exudes! He wouldn’t have to do too much to win my affections. Unfortunately, I would fold so very quickly. orz it would be too easy. I never knew I needed masquerade Azul until he appeared and aaaaa I am so blessed he’s an SSR. >0<

the episode of savanaclaw chapter 2 spoilers
Before anyone asks, the English scanlation is not yet out (please refer to turtlesoupscans in the coming weeks for that). The images in this post are pulled from the original Japanese release.
***MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD*** 🤡
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OH MY GOD, WHY IS GRIM SO CUTE IN THIS CHAPTER 😭 First he got a new ribbon for the Sunset Savanna event, now he’s got a whole ass DETECTIVE outfit in the manga... AND HE MATCHES WITH YUUKA........ . .. . . ...... . . .. ... . .. . . .. . . 
Tumblr media
LOOK AT HIS LITTLE TOE BEANS... . . . ... . . .. . .... . . .. HE COULD BE A TUNA CAN PAW MODEL OR SOMETHING qebihrgqyofyadsfsabpAOBHFh
Tumblr media
WE NEED THIS GRIM GROOVY IN THE GAME ASAP, WE NEED P.E. GRIM PLAYING MAGICAL SHIFT. MAKE IT HAPPEN, TWST DEVS 🤡 Crowley needs to stop looking so damn smug about keeping this golden Grim groovy out of my greedy clutches I WILL KNOCK DOWN HIS DOOR TO SEIZE THAT GROOVY YOU CANNOT CONTAIN ME
Tumblr media
OH, AND DON]TR ASDBASDILVYASFIYADVIYADFLADF EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE PRETTY BOSYS ASHASNUDqbuIUPBIYQERY LOOK AT THIS SHIT, LOOK AT IT
IS. IS THE REANFABHRre A READSON?????? THAT yoU GOTTA????? ?SDPARKLAE WITH FLOWERS IN THE BAVKGROUND LIKE THAT??????????? WHY IS THE HUNTSAMSN WINKING?????? ?? ??????? HJOW IS THIS OKAY, HOW IS THIS ALLWOED ?????f?fs,lmnqijfnoiqsinoadvpoadv2I9GT7027BQEBFPBFPA?????
Tumblr media
thEN WE GOT THIS BVITHC
whY’S HE. SMILING RLEIKE THAT AGIANST THAT OMINOUS BACKGROUND, WHY’S J WORC D Got ahIS HAND POSED LIKE THAT. IS HE A CAT IS HE RELATED TRO GRIM WHY’S HE SLY MAN’S LITERALLY ABOUT TO CHASE afYER THE GROUP OTL ASD JVVHLIYLDVNR8269G1R3F19BOFASADSHBHOaiutvdsubsahbbh
Tumblr media
SPECIAL SHOUTOUT TO MY DUDE FLOYD, HE KNOWS WHERE THE GOOD SHIT IS AT, HE YOINKED THE FLUFFY CAT UP STRAIGHT AWAY 👍ASHBDBIASHBILASBIDFIOYBEWQQIOQFNA Floyd goes from cute to scary in under 5 seconds flat 🥰
ADBHGYOAFAYVFSIBsfiobSBL THIS SOUNDS BAD BUT. I love the frightened expression on Grim here, I think it’s because the angle of the second panel emphasizes how round his face and snout are. It makes him ultra cute!!
Tumblr media
Also! Not pictured here because this post was just for me to scream about cats and eels (not give away the entire chapter) but 😔 we also get to see the injuries people received as a result of Ruggie manipulating their bodies, and the manga makes it pretty clear these injuries are substantial. For example, Trey is in crutches following his incident... 
There’s a big dramatic panel closing up on Trey after he has fallen to the floor, MAN LOOKS LIKE HE JUST KEELED OVER AND DIED.) I suspect we’ll probably see how bad Jamil’s injuries are when the Yuuka and co. approach him for questioning. Really amazing how much detail the manga is able to add to the story without the constraints of the visual novel medium!! 
I guess what’s also notable is we get Jack exercising? Being all sweaty and doing pushups! I’m sure the Jack fans will eat that up! This chapter’s not a ton of Leona, it mostly focuses on the investigation so no, you won’t find me screeching about the Fake Cat this time.

Win Win
Pairing: Robert Laing x Reader
Warning: Alcohol consumption, implied smut, making out, grinding.
Note: How bout some Robert Laing action? 😉😉😉 Been listening to the High Rise Audio book read by Tom while working (Yeah sorry end up working on a weekend again oTL) but hey back to Laing xX hope you'll enjoy this. This is for @the-th-horniest-book-club 's Lucky in Love Day 28 Upper Hand.we can all agree that as fucked up as the story is Tom in HR is freaking delish 🤤🙈🔥
Tom Hiddleston & Characters' taglist: @jewels2876 @jobean12-blog @curleyred2020 @lookalivefrosty (taglist open)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You tried to hit the tennis ball for the unknown time but failed. As expected. Robert didn't even gave you the upper hand even once.
Looking at his smug face with your failed attempt of a deadly glare you went to his side of the court to smack his firm shoulder like the sore loser that you are.
"I hate that you won gain! I've been practicing!" You whined and he just laughed loudly while offering you a drinking water.
"How will you learn if I wont give me best?" He said and winked at you.
"Oh shut your face!" You said stumping your right foot. "What's the price this time?" The two of you are now walking towards the elevator. You silently prayed that its working today because all the tennis playing you did had your legs a little shaky.
"Hmm..." He hummed. His eyes squinting a little like he always do when he's thinking. You had always find that look on him adorable.
"What you've won so much you ran out of ideas? You really should have let me win." You said bring your teeth at him.
"Well I do have an unopened wine in my fridge. How bout dinner at my place?" Your face lighten up upon hearing his price but sanked as quickly. "You'll be cooking of course." He winked at you and went inside the now opened elevator.
You stared at him with annoyance but got in yourself. Well good thing you're a Chef but ugh cooking for this man and his tons of opinions? Its kinda scary.
Lucky that you're always well stocked woth ingredients incase you're in a mood to invent new dish so preparing for dinner for Robert went smoothly.
You've got some freshly baked bread too. Carrying a tray of dish you went out of your apartment and walked to the door across yours. It's already slightly opened so you didn't have a problem knocking with your hands full.
You got in and found a quiet apartment. Where did he sneaked into again?
"Robert? Dinner's here!" You shouted.
"I'll be there in a minute." He called out somewhere. Must be in his bedroom. You went to his dining room and fixed the table while waiting for your host.
He popped in after a minute and went to the sink to wash his hand. You can smell paint on him.
"Are you changing your wall's paint again?" You asked and he nodded his head.
"Got tired of the grey." He said and sat down infront of you. Putting down a wine bottle. "Hope you dint mind I opened it already and took a sip while I was waiting for you."
"Its fine." You said and served him the Honeyed Garlic Glazed Salmon you cooked. He closed his eyes and smelled the aroma of the dish and let out a quiet moan. Your legs tightens hearing the sinful noise he made. Working out with him is already a bad idea now you're dining with him in his private space.
God, you hope you wont spill your heart over dinner or you'll end up broken just like the other ladies of the High Rise.
Drinking your fifth glass of whine while laughing at something Robert said. The two of you had moved from the dining room to his living room. You know you should have stopped on the third but you're enjoying chatting with him that you lost yourself.
The two of you might annoy each other from time to time but it didn't stopped you from finding him attractive. He's smart, sexy and a mystery but you're lucky enough to had the chabce to step in his invisible wall and that was what sparked your feelings.
He was laughing too with his head tipped up and you saw some paint on his well sculptured jaw. Unconsciously you tried to wipe it away but looks like its already dry.
Robert stopped laughing when he felt you touch him. He looked down to your adorable frowning face as you tried to wipe something in his jaw but seems to fail.
What is it?" He asked.
"Uhm...you got some paint in you." You said giving up on your mission.
"Yeah I tried to be as clean as possible this time but looks like a failed a little." He said emptying his glass.
"Are you changing your gray paint with a darker gray?" You asked amused. He just proudly nodded his head and stood up pulling you with him.
He brought you to his messy bedroom. News papers are covering everything except the walls that are now half light gray and darker on the other half.
"What do you think? Darker is better right? It'll highlight my light colored stuff." He said and walked towards his painting tools. With a wobbly hands he started applying paint on his wall. You went to him and took the brush on his hand and attempted to apply a straight line but failed. You did it again but your new stroke was worse than the first one.
You met Robert's eyes and the two of you end up laughing hard. Seeing his handsome face even wheb dying from laugher annoyed you so you dipped your fingers on the paint and applied them on his face. He stopped laughing looking at you like a deer in front of an incoming car.
"You didn't..." He said.
"Oh I certainly did." You said laughing proudly at you masterpiece. You saw him dip his huge hand on the paint and sprinted out of the room to try and save yourself from turning gray. Robert was hot on your heels.
He was able to catch you from behind when you tried to run back to his bedroom his arms wrapped around your shoulder.
"You've never been a fast runner darling." He teased and spread his paint cobered hand on your shoulder down to your collar bone. Shrieking at the cold sticky feeling it left you tried to shake him off of you but failed. Looking up you saw your reflections on his balcony's glass door and saw that Robert is also staring at it. Him behind you with his arms holding you close to his body.
You saw the shift on his eyes. The playful look now replaced with a hot glares as he looked you body up and down. Pulling you more close to his body.
"Robert..." You whispered as you turned your head towards his.
"Yes Y/N?" He asked his arms slowly fell towards your midsection.
"Kiss me Robert." You breathed out and his face slowly went down to meet yours. You both moaned as you felt each other closely. Your left hands went to touche the back of his head to full him down closer. Opening your lips to grant him access to your mouth. His tounge danced with yours in a hot but slow kiss.
"I've been wanting to do this." He said breathing heavily as he let go of your lips. He turned you around to face him. The both of you kot bothered by all the paints that are now all over your clothes and skin.
"Hmmm...so do I." You said licking your lower lips savouring his taste mixed with the delicious wine. He growled and pulled you close again. His head went down to nip at your exposed neck. Teasing you with his little bites and kisses.
"God I want you so bad." He said and hurriedly pushed your dress off you. He groaned seeing your matching lace underwear. He brought down his fave near your chest, rubbed his nose from the center up to your earlobe. "So, so bad." He whispered and suddenly lifted you up his arms.
Startled by his sudden move and roughness you wrapped your arms on his neck your legs around his waist moaning when your needy core felt the bulge on his trousers.
"Robert..." You moaned, grinding your pelvis on him. He grunted and his steps faltered but he continued carrying you towards his bedroom.
"Darling stop teasing me or I won't last" He moaned, quickly kissing your lips and it made you smile wide knowing that in bed you can actually have the upper hand. But you wont want that. You let Robert show you how good he is and how much you'll crave for more.

Ooooh ok ok Buckie, I'd like to ask n. 3 and 5 of the SFW fics and n. 10 of the NSFW ones! (You have so many wonderful ideas, wow!!! :D) 🧡
HEHEHEHEHE three of them! Yes of course my dear <3 (and it's just because my brain cannot focus to save it's own life OTL)
SFW 3 - bedknobsandbroomsticks
No snippets for this one yet, but hopefully soon! An AU of the old movie, Aziraphale Price is practicing witchcraft (through the Dr. Anthony J. Crowley Correspondence College of Witchcraft) in his small village on the cliffs of Dover until he gets saddled with 3 war orphans (Anathema, Adam, and Warlock). When he stops receiving updates from the mysterious Dr. Crowley, he and the children go to London to find him. What follows is an adventure in books, thieves, deserted islands, and fighting off Nazi's with reanimated suits of armor.
SFW 5 - riversiderendesvous
My currently on hiatus (because both of us have a million zine obligations) RBB fic with Licorne <3 Five times Crowley attempts to propose and the one time he finally succeeds. Just hapless and soft ineffables. I don't have a snippet for the next chapter of this, but it sees our boys traveling to Paris and getting their portraits done near the Eiffel Tower, lots of starlight and reminiscing. And always infinite softness.
NSFW 10 - we hope you brought pizza
Ah yes the Fandom Bang AU. Two writers, one popular and one unknown, one with bad experiences in a previous fandom and the other almost universally loved. Newt with a bad camera phone, Crowley with pet rats, Aziraphale with a pet turtle, and chapters told entirely in Discord screen caps. I still haven't written much on this but have a bit of conversation from when Aziraphale meets one of Crowley's rats over video chat:
"Oh my, what a handsome fellow." Heat rises in Crowley's cheeks. Whatever he'd expected Aziraphale to lead with, it wasn't that. It was a bit validating though, he'd only changed his outfit four times today. Wasn't a big deal. He wasn't nervous or anything. "And such a lovely red color, too." Oh no, already on to his hair, he wasn't going to survive this. "Um, yea, thanks angel, I-" "What's their name?" Crowley's brain comes to a standstill. He's sure he told Aziraphale his name. Not like he keeps it a secret. Also why is there a tickle on the back of his neck? Ah. Crowley reaches up and collects Viper, rustling in his preferred nest which just so happens to be Crowley's hair. "You smug little bastard," Crowley coos at him, "Well, you wanted to say hi, so say hi to Aziraphale, Viper." Crowley holds Viper, who's wriggling just a bit in his hand because he likes to be a nuisance, closer to the camera. "Oh!" Aziraphale says and a smile lights up his face, "Hello there little fellow."
Thank you Sar!! <3 <3 ^_^

alpha for the character thing!
HI sorry i haven't gotten to this sooner ive been busy OTL ; i will also be doing webseries alpha w/ this one
favorite thing about them
fuck man idk! there's so much i like abt him........ i think? if i had to choose 2 things it'd be his design and like.... the fact that he's so kind but also v competitive in a friendly way.... i love to see it
least favorite thing about them
i want to see! more funky lil details! about his personality and interests! i wanna know if he's got a weird hobby irl or a favorite minigame or smthn! idk just More He
favorite line
on god i still love his "your friends are weird... i like your weird friends!" it's cute and relateable and fun and still very in-character! plus it's a super important moment overall
brOTP
i'll b honest this is less of a brOTP™ and more of a headcanon thing but. i think alpha and bitshrum would get along rlly well after The Events™ and like? i can just see them getting rlly pumped about videogame stuff together! i can just imagine alpha being very enthusiastically interested in how game + environment design works despite not knowing shit about it and bitshrum just absolutely Going Off about the specifics of it lmao
OTP
you already know it's kirbalpha/zetpha like that's a large chunk of my personality right there
nOTP
i. am not sure actually
random headcanon
THIS IS SO STUPID BUT LISTEN on god i can perfectly imagine alpha's wings flapping like Crazy in-game when he's excited about something
unpopular opinion
alpha is. very woobified by a large part of the fandom, ive noticed........ like are we just? ignoring the shit he's managed to get through? ive seen some ppl in the y0utube livestream chat be like "omg alpha my soft boi🥺" when i honestly think he could murder if he really wanted to like Hello
song i associate them with
VULTURE CULTURE BY FANGCLUB....... idk what it is but holy shit it's nearly exact in my head
favorite picture of them
THIS ONE IS RELATIVELY NEW BUT LET ME EXPLAIN: i have seen zetto make this exact fucking expression at alpha so many fuckin times and now Alpha is the one making that face at him and its so fucking manic and smug and i love it for him holy shit

[FULL] 10 _ OUR SONGS (The last team in the rankings (5th) will be leaving the show :’()
+ DDR and Cart Racing. Too cute. Shen Shen.
10:56 - MC: Qi-ge, you’re such a cool guy, and you love racing. Why did you let Yuning race, instead of doing it yourself? RXQ: I know YN’s skills. Another thing is that everyone knows that I love racing. For me to win, is obvious. Losing would lose me too much face. So, I thought it would be better to let YN do it. LYN: Qi-ge saw that I really wanted to play, so he let me do it. MC: Let me tell you, through the whole course, the fastest in speed was actually XZ. But the trophy goes to LYN. 
Zhou Huajian x Jiang Yiqiao - 阴天 (Yin Tian)
22:40 - MC: I think we can all completely understand how FYQ lost at DDR, being his first time playing. What happened to you while racing? A: There were really very skilled people there. HJ-dage is too awesome. ZhanZhan- skilled. Yuning. They drove so well that I couldn’t even see them, and I was driving fast enough. MC: I notice there’s one person you haven’t mentioned- Zhou Shen. A: ShenShen and I were side by side. He was behind me. ZS: He speaks too highly of me. I was on a different playing field completely. ZHJ: Can I say this? A: Say? ZS: ?? ZHJ: Zhou Shen drove in the opposite direction.
[ShenShen trying to learn the route from Yuning] 24:10 - LYN: There’s only one way. ZS: There’s only one? LYN: Just don’t go on the grass and you’ll be fine. There’s only one way. ZS: Everyone, please be careful! If you see me on the road, please make way!! – A: Sometimes you can see a person-less cart roaming around. ZS: That is to say, all you could see of me was the helmet. HL: Don’t go driving out on the street like that. ZS: I won’t. I won’t even drive a car.
Fei Yuqing x Ayanga - 卷珠帘 (Juan Zu Lian) x 凤凰于飞 (Feng Huang Yu Fei)
26:51 - RXQ: Wow, they have a qin?! 26:59 - ZS: We don’t have anything. HL: We have dry ice!
34:28 - MC: The first two groups were already so amazing. The third group- to sing after these two amazing seniors… (how do you feel?) XZ: I’m just very nervous. Because the first two groups were too good x3 MC: You have to know. Na-jie told me she was definitely coming back. XZ: /mental breakdown/ XZ: OK! She will. She will.
Angela Chang x Xiao Zhan - 呐喊 (Na Han | Shout)
35:46 - MC: I wonder if the other teams feel like this is unfair. Other Teams: ?? Zhan: ! MC: Because it feels like there are three people on Na-Zhan Team (instead of two). There’s someone behind the scenes always giving them input! ZHJ: Yes, yes, yes. How about we cut them by 50 points? MC: First cut 50 points off? XD XZ: !! 🙏 (have mercy)
37:14 - XZ: People’s impression of me, they always say I’m 文质彬彬 (elegant and simple, elegant and polite). I sing very lyrical songs. But really I.. I do have a different heart. So I’m very thankful that Angela-laoshi is here, and is willing to help me perform different things. I’m pretty happy. A: /looks at Zhan Zhan/ XZ: /looks back/ Really! A: Thank you.
42:14 - MC: Are you feeling satisfied? A: I’m feeling pretty smug. XZ: Yeah. MC: XZ. This is the first time I’ve seen your veins bursting out. XZ: LOL MC: This song is actually quite difficult. XZ: Yes. To me, there was some difficulty. MC: Then why did you decide to take on this challenge? XZ: Because I really like this song. When I… was still in my youth… /Angela elbows him/ I remember this song was about a small girl who was shouting out the things in her heart, wanting to grow up. She wanted to be accepted by the world and didn’t want to be pushed down by insignificant things. When I heard the new arrangement, I thought “Wow”. This girl has already grown up and she has her own views of the world now. She made her own breakthrough. This song is meaningful not only to Angela-laoshi, but also to me. I really want to breakthrough and shout out what’s in my heart.
43:14 - MC: Throughout this whole program I’ve found that two people always sing along. One is Yuning, the other is Zhou Shen. LYN: I’m shocked. The reason I was singing along was actually because I was warming up- it’s my turn soon. A/XZ: LOL MC: ZS, you’re not also warming up, are you? ZS: Uh…this is. Uh. That is- when I was- Also… XZ: In your youth! ZS: In my youth I would also regularly listen to this song. So I was brought back to that time.
44:08 - MC: Qi-ge, you’re very calm. RXQ: I’m here to savor in the musical feast! I was shocked because XZ looks like he’s very 斯文秀气 (handsome and delicate) but when he was singing “Shout” his explosive force- I thought I was seeing a solitary prince going to rescue his princess. In this distant kingdom, song coming from all sides, he bravely pulled his sword and went forth. I saw this sort of image. XZ: Thank you Qi-ge. Thank you.
Ren Xianqi x Liu Yuning - 天涯 (Tian Ya | Horizon)
53:13 - MC: This is Qi-ge’s “TianYa”, right? I’d like to take the opportunity to let everyone know of the background behind this song. The composer of this song is a well known Japanese singer-songwriter Miyuki Nakajima. RXQ: Yes. MC: When I was looking up this information I found out that this song she made especially for you.  RXQ: Yes, she wrote it for me. I had done a cover of 伤心太平洋 (Shang Xin Tai Ping Yang) before. I made an MV, and I sent it to her. She really liked it and ended up sending me a song. That song was 天涯.  Hacken Lee x Zhou Shen - 天下有情人 (Tian Xia You Qing Ren) [1:01:22 - XZ’s reaction to the song. Same. OMG. Zhou Shen’s an angel.]
1:05:30 - ZHJ: First off, I’d really like to thank the two of you, from the bottom of my heart. No matter what product, what song, it needs a good singer to give it life. I had always thought that the collaboration between me and Qi Yu would be invincible. I really want to thank you for giving this song new life. Thank you, thank you.  ZHJ: I also want to sincerely tell everyone… please don’t forget about us. We are- JYQ: Number 1. Yin Tian.
1:04:43 - RXQ: I always thought in my heart that Zhou Shen was like Peter Pan. LKQ: You mean his physical stature is like Peter Pan? ZS: OTL RXQ: His music has a pure (newborn) quality. His voice has the power to uplift you. Their voices together- still gives me same thought- a match made in heaven. Amazing.
1:07:17 - MC: After today’s performance, Angela will be leaving us. Do you feel unwilling? These performances really are very wonderful. A: Of course. I really want to thank everyone on stage with me today. I think- with my collaboration this time, singing together with Xiao Zhan- I really feel that he is a very polite chi-child… Also meeting these seniors, and getting to know them more in-depth, I understand that these are very exemplary models. Not matter whether it is about professionalism on stage, or even off-stage, every one is very kind. This could be my last time playing with everyone this week. Thank you all.
+ Special Collab Stage: Fei Yuqing x Zhou Huajian + LMAO. Peanut oil CF
1:16:52 - XZ: /receives the envelope/ Thank you. /turns around and hands it to Angela/ Here. A: Hehe. You’re so cute. XZ: I’m a little nervous. A: Do you want me to open it? XZ: Ahh, I don’t want to see it. A: Oh. I saw some words. A: … XZ: Tell me. Does it say we’re out. No way… A: OH. XZ: AH?? A: … XZ: What sort of reaction is that? /can’t stand it anymore and looks/ A: I’m gonna say it! My Dearest Na–Zhan Team… Congratulations on ranking third place. We look forward to your next performance!
1 - Fei Yuqing x Ayanga 2 - Hacken Lee x Zhou Shen (lol @ Hacken’s “YAYYYYYY”) 3 - Na Ying | Angela x Xiao Zhan 4 - Zhou Huajian x Jiang Yiqiao 5 - Ren Xianqi x Liu Yuning ( OH NOOOO :’( )
1:26:16 - ZHJ: It really looks like they’re stepping on cockroaches. XZ: LOL

7, 10 and 14 for the Good Omens meme! 😊
(questions list)
7) If you’re an artist: What are some of your favorite Good Omens related things to draw?
hghhh ok, I’ll be honest, I’ve been in a total creative slump. plus there’s so much good stuff being created already that I just can’t think of anything that needs contributing oTL But in the beginning I had fun drawing Crowley from the Bentley-on-fire scene. 
10) How did you hear about Good Omens? What made you decide to watch it?
answered here! 
14) What’s your favorite scene out of the entire show?
Gonna cheat and pick two it’s my blog
Tumblr media
The glimpses of backstory! The emotional vulnerability! “Aziraphale…!” Aziraphale being awkward as his heart breaks a little on “so sorry to hear it”! THE MUSIC ♥ How fucking cute Crowley’s voice and face gets! “AGNES NUTTER!!!” [POINTPOINT]]!!! That bartender who just Does Not Care that he’s given this dude 3 bottles and he keeps babbling about being a demon! 
Tumblr media
….and then he goes from that lowest of moments to PEAK CHAOS DEMON. The moment where Hastur takes off his glasses makes me rage, so seeing him go from smug AF to panicking and flamingly discorporated brings me joy B) 
Full-on snake eyes and the grin of a fucking maniac!!! I’m In Love With My Car!! Confusing the fuck out of the policefolk who aren’t paid nearly enough for this! YEAHHHHHH

Revamped (ch. 4)
I... have been writing... for THIRTY YEARS! D: Lol jk it just feels that way. Hey guys! Sorry about the delay! I had like three different directions I could have this story go, so I had to play around with it and decide which one I wanted. SO I finally did, so now hopefully we can get back on track! Soooo if it's riddled with mistakes I missed, I rewrote this a lot, so I apologize. OTL. Now, onward! :D
Lol, snapped a pic of Ladybug carrying someone across the city!
Aw, that's our Ladybug! So sweet and helpful!
OMG is that ADRIEN AGRESTE?!
OMG NO WAY
I THINK IT IS
They look so cute! 3
No way, she and Cat Noir are in love, didn't you see the photo? THEY'RE so cute together 3
omg did they break up?
GASP! Is Ladybug cheating on Cat Noir!?
No way!
How could she!?
Poor Cat Noir!
Adrien deserves better!
"Adrien is it true?!"
"It can't be true!"
"No way, how'd you manage it?!"
"What?" Adrien jumped from one questioner to another, flabbergasted at the sudden swarm and barrage surrounding him. "Is 'what' true?"
"You and Ladybug are an item!"
"What?!"
Alix shoved her phone in his face, where there was an unmistakable picture of Ladybug swinging through the skies of Paris, a common and accepted sight. Save for the fact that she was carrying a lean, blond male with a very signature outfit, and blond hair.
"Oh no," he groaned before he could stop himself.
"So it is true!" she pestered.
"No! No, no, we were just, uh," He grimaced as he glanced between everyone trying to wrack his brain. "She was just giving me a ride home! I was right by where the Akuma attack was and-"
As Marinette came to school, she was surprised by the crowd near the front door. It wasn't the first time she'd seen Adrien in the middle of an overexcited group of teens, but their classmates had stopped being star-struck a long time ago.
"What's going on?" She asked a distressed Alya as she approached.
Just then, nearly all the girls in her class turned with a gasp and suddenly crowded around her. "Nothing!" "Nothing's wrong!" "Nothing's happening!" "Adrien was just telling us about his-"
"No way guys," Nino spoke up suddenly, coming over to put his arm protectively around his friend. "There's no way Adrien is secretly dating Ladybug! Cuz if he was, he would've told me about it, his best bud!"
"Right, of course!" Adrien said quickly, though the agreement seemed a little haphazard.
"ADRIKINS!" Came the distraught wail as Chloe jogged up to him. "Tell me it isn't true! Tell me you're not dating Ladybug!"
"It's not true!" Adrien finally said in exasperation. "I was late for dinner and Ladybug was just giving me a lift home, that was it!"
The girls winced and looked worriedly to Marinette. And somehow mistook her worried expression for disappointment.
"Oh, thank goodness!" Chloe sighed with relief, instantly cuddling his arm, ignoring his leaning away from her. "Not that Ladybug isn't great of course, but she's not the one for you."
His grimace came back, knowing where this was going, and quickly coming up with a distraction. "Right! Because, uh, sheeeee and Cat Noir are a thing, right? Didn't they just become an item?"
Of course, so focused on Chloe, no one noticed the way Marinette grimaced. Ugh, right, that photo! The one of her and Cat Noir kissing! He'd been so eager about it, and Alya had gotten so trigger-happy with it. All her hard work of "rejecting" Cat Noir, down the drain...
...well ok, that wasn't true. Every now and then she still wound up flirting with him back, so maybe her attempts hadn't been that successful anyway.
"Ugh, she can have him if she wants," Chloe waved him off in her typical fashion before clinging onto the reluctant boy's arm. "You're the perfect one for me!"
Marinette crossed her arms. "Oh please, he's hardly "perfect"."
She hadn't realized she'd said it aloud until the shocked eyes rounded on her. Her own eyes widened, especially when she saw Adrien's stunned confusion.
"What was that?" Chloe pressed.
"I mean, uh, no one's perfect, Chloe!" Marinette said, trying to be more confident than she really felt. "And, uh, you shouldn't expect that of people!"
"Ugh, what would you know? You wouldn't know perfection if it hit you in the face," She said airily, flipping her ponytail with a flourish.
Marinette leered.
And then she smiled mischievously. "Actually, Chloe, I always thought you and Cat Noir would make a great couple."
"What?!" She wrinkled her nose in his disgust, while everyone else looked confused. Adrien looked positively alarmed. "Me and that mangy cat? Why on earth would you think that?"
But her cool, easy smile never faltered."You two brag about yourselves so much, you'll be able to keep each other entertained for hours."
Everyone burst out laughing, much to Chloe's anger, and Adrien's embarrassment. She scowled at the laughing faces, and Adrien flushed with a forced embarrassed smile. The warning bell rang, and the others dispersed, though Chloe of course couldn't leave without a threatening point to Marinette. "You'll regret this, Dupain-Cheng!"
"I seriously doubt that, Chloe."
"Hmph!" She turned up her nose before marching off to class.
"Shouldn't expect him to be perfect, huh?" Alya raised a brow as she smirked, crossing her arms. "Nice philosophy. Did you decide that in the last five minutes?"
She smiled bashfully with a helpless shrug.
"Marinette?" Came Adrien's voice, making her snap straight.
"Speaking of perfect," Alya muttered with a sly grin, before she stalked off. "See you in a bit, Marinette." She sang.
She looked after her friend longingly before turning with a nervous smile. "H-hey, Adrien!"
He seemed as nervous as she was. "Hey! So, uh," he rubbed at the back of his neck. "You like Cat Noir, huh?"
"No!" She panicked, making him blink. "I mean yes! I mean- I like him! As a hero! But it's not like I like him romantically or anything!"
"You don't?" He seemed genuinely surprised. "But I thought- er, that is, you were uuuh-"
"I did used to have a little crush on him," she said quickly, proud of herself for this brilliant turn around. "But he's in love with Ladybug, so now I'm just a fan!"
"Oh! Great! Glad to hear it." He nodded, half to himself, though he seemed mostly distracted as he fidgeted. "Soooo... do you really think he brags a lot? As bad as Chloe?"
Her lips twitched traitorously, but she managed to school her expression. "That depends. Do you really think Ladybug and Cat Noir are an item?"
He raised a brow, obviously confused as to how those two were connected. "Don't you?"
"Oh, I dunno, I mean it's just one photo," she excused quickly, turning around in pretend thought. If she faced him, she was pretty sure she'd lose her nerve. "Maybe they had another reason for kissing. Maybe Ladybug was saving him again, oooor maybe they thought they were trying to break a spell!"
Of course, not looking at him, she didn't see the sudden flash of worry. "You... think so?"
"Yeah, I mean, who can really say, right?"
He was quiet for a moment as he considered it. "Yeah, I... guess that's true. Ladybug's done it before."
"Exactly!" She agreed cheerfully, finally turning to face him. "I'm just saying, you can't believe everything you-"
She stopped. As she looked at his face, she was stunned by how... down he looked. He was clutching the strap of his bookbag, face to the ground as he hunched over.
"...though I guess they did look really happy together," she finally relented. "I mean, what do I know, I'm just a fan!"
He looked up at her in some surprise, like he had forgotten she was there, and then balked when he remembered himself. "Right, of course! We're just fans! I guess only Ladybug and Cat Noir know, right? We should head back to class."
"Oh, yeah," she smiled as she followed him quickly. "Don't wanna be late again!"
Of course, neither of them were aware of their eavesdropper. Lila watched from the shadows, her face turning into a scowl as she gripped the photograph of Ladybug in her fingers.
After that, everyone in school had forgotten about the incident, and took Adrien at his word. He thought that was the end of it.
"ADRIEN AGRESTE!" Cried the angry female akuma from the school rooftop. She was dressed in a garish mockery of a retail worker's uniform. "Where are you!?"
The students ran screaming for safety, trying to hide in some classes and rooms nearby. Adrien was trying to head for the locker room, but he was spotted, and the female akuma dropped down to block his path.
"I don't understand," he said. "What'd I do to you?"
"Nothing, I just know that you're my ticket to Ladybug, Loverboy," she sashayed toward him. "It's nothing personal."
"Uh," He grinned nervously as he tiptoed back. "I would just like it to be known that that photo was taken out of context, and we're not actually-"
"SILENCE!" She shouted, holding up her weapon- a rather formidable looking… coat hanger? Either way it started glowing and he had a feeling he wouldn't like getting hit with it. "I don't care what the rumors say- all I know is that you're enough to make her come running."
There was no where to run, and no where to hide, and as he braced himself for the attack, he silently cursed his need for haste yesterday.
"WATCH OUT!"
And then he was suddenly yanked away, Ladybug's yo-yo wrapping around his waist to pull him toward her.
"HA! I knew it." The akuma sneered. "Attacking your precious lad in distress was the perfect way to bring you straight to me!"
She scowled, holding him protectively close as she rebutted the claim. "Ugh, I'm going to rescue anyone in distress, not just him!"
And while normally Adrien would be thrilled at the close contact, the sight of the smug akuma, and the students peeking through the windows with their phones out, made him clear his throat. "Uh, Ladybug?" He smiled shyly with a blush, pointing to their touching waists.
She blinked at him, then her protective hold, and released him with a squeak, activating her yo-yo. "Sorry!"
"No problem! Uh, thanks Ladybug!" Adrien saluted obligatorily before dashing for cover to transform and join her.
Thankfully, the battle itself was not a difficult one. Cat Noir didn't even need his Cataclysm. The day passed by relatively quickly, leaving the students to finish up their classes and head home. And in Adrien's case, head to fencing.
"Hey, Kagami!" He greeted cheerfully.
"Hey," she nodded once in acknowledgment, then readied her stance. He hesitated a moment, curious.
"Sooooo you're not going to ask me about the picture?" He asked cautiously.
"Do I need to?" She asked sharply.
"No! No, no, it's nothing like people are saying," He assured quickly.
"Then there's nothing to worry about. I'm not going to worry about some suspicious pictures anymore. I already know where your affections lie."
He was grateful for the fencing helmet to hide his blush. Because it was true, he had been developing a crush on her lately. Granted he was still falling for Ladybug over and over, but... if Marinette's point was right, then maybe he really should give up on-
"En garde!"
Her warning snapped him out of it, and he readied his stance. He could think about it later, but for now, he had to try to beat her again.
"Would you care to explain this?"
Adrien had a feeling word of this would come back to his father. So this time, as the man held up his own phone with the incriminating picture, he was prepared.
"Father, that's not me! It's just an excited fan dressed up like me."
"Oh really?"
"My face isn't visible, is it?" He crossed his arms. "Besides, Nathalie saw me before I came down for dinner. I was in my room the whole time."
He glanced at his assistant for confirmation, and she nodded.
"It's true, sir. He was already in there, and there was no sign of Ladybug."
The man studied the boy hard, looked at the photo again, then relented. "Very well, you may go."
Adrien smiled, quite pleased with himself as he made his way back to his room. Today just had a quick battle, a quick evasion, so all was well and good.
But needless to say, things got a little… hectic after that. And not just from akumas.
It happened Tuesday, after the battle when the reporters had to get their 'scoop'…
"LADYBUG! How could you cheat on Cat Noir!"
"Uuugh, I'm not cheating on him! I'm not dating either of them!"
"Can confirm. On both ends."
Wednesday, when there were three akumas in the same day...
"Now that I have super powers, I can be good enough for Adrien!"
"Trust me, with your super powers, you can do so much better."
"Hey!"
Thursday, when they got a nice combo of one of her fanboys, and one of Cat Noir's fangirls…
"I'll take the Miraculouses, then we'll be together forever!"
"An eternity of corny pick up lines and bad jokes? Be my guest."
"For the record, I know you're teasing me, but I'll still stand by the fact that my jokes are hilarious."
And Friday, when it felt like everything was piling up bit by bit.
Lila stared at her phone, teeth clenching harder and harder as the newest news clips came out. Image after image of Ladybug valiantly protecting Adrien only fueled the fans of the assumption of their "secret relationship", giving her plenty of fodder for rumors, which she had been taking. To no avail.
"Why? Why can none of these idiots take out Ladybug?" She ranted. "What else do I have to say?"
She jumped onto her computer, looking up more articles and forums, trying to make as many comments about "secret dates" and "outings" and possible.
'Come on, come on, someone take care of her!'
Because no matter how Adrien tried to deny it, Lila knew the truth.
"Why?! Why isn't Hawkmoth akumatizing me?!" She chucked her phone across her room, and stomped about in rage. Picking up the photograph from her desk, she glowered at the smiling, swinging image of Ladybug, gripping so hard it crinkled in her fingers.
"Just as I planned, her anger is growing with each passing day I "ignore" her." Hawkmoth mused as he sensed her rage tumbling through. "But not yet. Her work in helping spread the rumors is giving me plenty of ammunition to wear them down. And then she'll be ready to be my perfect puppet."
He held out his hand, letting a butterfly land in his glove. He akumatized it, and let it flutter out the window. "Fly away my little akuma, and evilize him!"
Ladybug dropped between a couple buildings, trying to catch her breath against the wall after the latest battle. Cat Noir transformed back first, having to use his power a lot sooner than her. Plagg took the time to zip out and groan in annoyance. "Man, that's the 10th one this week! It's nice being popular with the ladies, but this is ridiculous!"
"If it wasn't for people taking all these pictures it wouldn't be happening so much!" Ladybug groaned in exasperation. "It's not like I'm saving you any different from normal."
"Normally, I might be disappointed, but this time I have to agree. I mean:" He had given Plagg a piece of cheese, then pulled out his phone to pull up the latest "craze". "This one isn't even remotely flattering!"
It had been a picture where Ladybug had just barely caught Adrien mid-fall by the ankle, leaving him swinging precariously in mid-air, and screaming bloody murder. Clearly, the affection was palpable.
"Honestly, I'm gonna need my PR people to get on the ball soon," He mused. "My nose looks way too big in this one."
"This is getting out of hand." Ladybug groaned with her head in her hand. "You've got to go on TV and tell people they're wrong."
"I've been trying! But the more I try to deny it, the more people think I'm trying to hide it!"
"Well there's gotta be some way to stop all these akumatizations." She murmured as she grasped her chin in thought.
He watched her a moment, brow furrowing in worry, before he quickly schooled it to be casual. "Well, what if we pretended we're dating? I mean as Cat Noir!" He said quickly. "Like we did before for the other akumas."
She looked at him sharply, but he searched her face to decipher her reaction, hand at his neck. She seemed less-than-thrilled at the idea, though turned her face away so he wouldn't see. "I-I don't know, wouldn't that be hard for you to-?"
Then the akuma found them, and burst in with a mighty roar, making Plagg have to hide.
"Another one?!" Ladybug complained. "It hasn't even been five minutes!"
"LADYBUG!" He cried angrily. He was a massive, muscular boy with a wrestler's yellow uniform blindingly bright against his purple skin. There were stripped braces on his wrists and calves, with an orange armored helmet, but besides that had nothing else to shield him. "Why, why do you love him? What does that weakling have that I don't?!"
"Oh, one of your fans again," Adrien realized brightly, hands on his hips. "I gotta say this is a nice change of pace."
"Silence, girly boy! You don't have what it takes to make Ladybug happy!"
Both Adrien and Ladybug glared.
And then Adrien sneered. "Well, better a "girly boy" than a toy store reject." He said easily, leaning to one side. "With a paint job like that I'd say a 2 year old could do better."
"Ca- Adrien!" Ladybug snapped, just before she had to dive to snatch him out of harm's way. "Are you insane? Don't antagonize him like this!"
The boy didn't even have the decency to look fazed, simply shrugging as she held him in her arms. "What? He asked," he defended. "Besides, you can't expect me not to feel a little jealous of anyone after you."
Of course, neither of them were aware of Hawkmoth on the other side of the psychic link. "What?!"
"Oh, go "hide" already," Ladybug spat as she dropped him, whirling her yo-yo to life.
"Oh no you don't!" the wrestler shouted. "Come fight me face to face!"
"No!" Hawkmoth interrupted. "Not until you've faced Cat Noir and Ladybug and given me their miraculouses!"
"Hmph, go ahead, girly boy!" the akuma yelled after Adrien as he darted around a building. "Go run an' hide! While I show Ladybug what a real man I am!"
"Real man, huh?" Adrien opened up his shirt to let Plagg out again. "Why don't we go show this guy what a real man can do. Plagg, CLAWS OUT!"
Once fully powered up in his own armor, he came out into the fray, happily jumping in to take a few swipes at the technicolor wrestler.
"Nice moves, Cat Noir." Ladybug praised. "Think you can hold him back for a while?"
"No problem. You just go recharge yourself," he assured with a wink.
"Don't let her get away!" Hawkmoth demanded. "She's about to transform back!"
But of course, the akuma's attempt to go after her was thwarted by Cat Noir jumping between them.
"Ah, ah, ah," he wagged his finger, whirring his pole around himself dangerously before striking a defensive pose. "You'll have to go through me first."
Ladybug dashed around a building, letting herself detransform. "Hurry, Tikki," she whispered, pulling out the cookie. "There's not much time!"
"I don't know how much more I can do this, Marinette," Tikki admitted weakly as she got to eating the macaroon.
"Hang in there just a little longer!"
Cat Noir was quick and agile compared the big, hulking muscle man. His strikes were fast and fierce, and he kept his pole close to his body to keep his control. For once, he was focusing hard on the fight. So much so that he didn't even hear Ladybug when she finally jumped beside him, yo-yo at the ready.
"Alright, I'm ready to-"
He let out a battle-cry and charged at his enemy, going low to try to knock him flat. Ladybug blinked, before chasing after him and trying to join in.
"No, Ladybug, stay back!" Cat Noir grunted. He was on the ground, on top of the wrestler as they pushed against his pole to try to beat the other in brute strength. "I'll handle him!"
"Ha! You don't have what it takes! How'd a puny boy like you get to be the hero of Paris?"
"My charm and sense of humor, of course. You should try it some time- it might make you more tolerable!"
The wrestler managed to switch positions, rolling on top and trying to shove the pole into his throat. "I deserve the miraculous! Ladybug needs a real partner!"
"I'm her partner!"
Ladybug, for her part, let her yo-yo stop its spin. Narrowing her eyes and letting her scowl deepen, she straightened her stance and crossed her arms. She had a feeling of where this was going, and she didn't like it one bit.
"You know what they say, the bigger they are, the harder they fall!"
Cat Noir finally kicked out the wrestler's leg, flipping him over and jumping back to his feet. He went on the attack again, the wrestler using his braces to block his moves, and of course throw a few punches, with Cat Noir leaping out of range. They advanced and retreated in an angered dance of showmanship, sparring verbally as well as physically.
"Not bad for a weakling, puny man!"
"You're delusional if you think a muscle-head like you has a chance with Ladybug. I'll take you out using brains as well as brawn."
"Hmph, I'll show you and that girly boy! A real warrior is full of strength and power, nothing like your skinny little-"
"Will you two knock it off!?" Ladybug finally snapped, and the pair paused in their fighting. "Did neither of you think that maybe I don't care who's stronger?"
The blinked, and they stared from her, to one another, back to her.
"What are you doing?!" Hawkmoth demanded. "Get his miraculous!"
"You… don't?" Cat Noir asked in confusion.
"No! I'm a superhero for crying out loud!" She said. "I can save myself just fine! I don't need a knight in shining armor to impress me!"
"Then…" the akuma victim lowered his hands in confusion. "What do you need to impress you?"
She glanced to Cat Noir, then sighed as she looked to her clasped hands. "The boy I love is… kind, and sweet. He's helpful to people, and always has a smile for everyone, and it's the most beautiful thing in the world. I don't love him because I think he can "save me", I love him because he's kind to me."
"I can be kind," the wrestler said instantly. "I'm a nice guy!"
"You've been fighting me and Cat Noir to take our Miraculouses and help Hawkmoth. How is that "kind"?"
"She's right," Cat Noir sighed in mock sympathy with a shrug. "Helping the supervillain doesn't usually give you points in the "nice guy" department."
"Don't think you're free from this either, Cat Noir," Ladybug frowned at him, jabbing at his chest. "If we'd been working together instead of you fighting over your ego, we could have gotten his akuma already!"
He flinched, then lowered his head, properly chastised.
Ladybug hadn't really been sure what to expect, but it wasn't the akuma victim willingly handing over his arm brace.
"What?! What're you doing?!" Hawkmoth yelled.
Ladybug smiled up at him, putting a hand on his shoulder. "You're doing the right thing."
"I guess it's too late to ask you for a date, then."
"Sorry, but I'm in love with someone else," she said sympathetically, taking the brace and dropping it to the ground and stomping on it.
She captured and purified the butterfly, but since the akuma hadn't actually been doing anything but trying to fight Cat Noir, there wasn't any damage to fix.
"Uuuuuugh, ah..." the akumatized victim groaned as he looked around. He was obviously much smaller than his villainous form, though still tall and muscular. With his young face it was clear he was only a couple years older than the heroes. "Ladybug? Cat Noir?!"
"Hey there," Ladybug smiled kindly, ignoring the way Cat Noir wrinkled his nose in distaste. "You feeling alright?"
"Uh, yeah," He shot up to his feet, cheeks pink. "I-I'm great, but what am I…?"
"You were akumatized by Hawkmoth."
"What?! No, that's impossible! I'm not evil!"
"I know, it's Hawkmoth that's evil. He gets into your head and makes you do things you wouldn't normally do. Just be careful from now on."
"I will. I promise I'm stronger than that," he assured, flexing for her.
Cat Noir snorted, and Ladybug sighed. Right, since he was akumatized, he wouldn't remember her "speech".
"Do you need a lift?" She asked instead.
Taken aback by her lack of response, he glanced around the area to get his bearings back, and he smiled in embarrassment as he rubbed at the back of his neck. "Uh, yeah, actually."
"Sure thing," she threw her yo-yo to catch a perch, and held out her arm.
He looked at her, then balked. "You mean, you want to carry me?"
"Don't worry," she waved off his concern. "I'm much stronger than I look."
He still seemed uncertain, and Ladybug couldn't understand why he seemed hesitant, knowing that she was, well, a superhero.
"Ah, on second thought, I'll be fine walking after all."
"Are you sure? I really don't mind."
"It's not that far, actually."
Cat Noir, who knew instantly what was going on, was leaning on his cane with a slyly amused smirk, before he looked at his hand, and gasped.
"Oh no, I'm about to transform back!" He stole the opened spot, hopping into her arms and holding on with the arm not holding his staff. "Quick Ladybug, you've got to get me out of here!"
"Honestly, Cat Noir, again?" She chastised. "You've got to be more responsible. Sorry," She said to the former victim. "Maybe next time."
Of course, since she was looking at him, she didn't see the way Cat Noir leaned his head toward her to look like he was "cuddling" her, or the way he waved farewell with a smug grin before she pulled them away. She brought them to drop behind a building, and was about to let him down before she blinked, memories rushing back to her.
"Hey wait a second, you're not about to transform back. You didn't even use your Cataclysm."
"I know. I just had to show the guy what he was missing."
"Cat Noir!"
"Look, I already knew he wasn't going to do it. He can't be seen being carried by you, it would ruin his image."
"Oh, but not yours?"
"Of course not. Everyone knows I am still the greatest hero of Paris."
She let him drop with a yelp, dusting her hands off and planting them on her hips as she waited for him to stand. "Well, the greatest hero of Paris can go ahead and walk himself back, then."
"Aw, c'mon, bugaboo, I was only joking. You know I think you're the number one hero of Paris," he cooed, leaning sideways to look up at her from under his lashes. Blink blink blink.
"Hmph. Sweet words from someone who wanted to fight all by himself. And haven't I told you not to call me 'bugaboo' anymore?"
He straightened, rubbing at the back of his head worriedly. "Right, sorry, it slipped."
"Just keep it in mind," she said easily, throwing her yo-yo to catch a perch.
"W-wait, Ladybug!" He twisted his pole self-consciously. "Do you… think I brag a lot?"
She blinked.
He darted his eyes away, fidgeting nervously. "It's just a thought I had, lately, for no reason, I just wondered-"
"You mean you hadn't noticed?"
He stared.
"I thought it was just a part of your act as Cat Noir," she stated in incredulity, before pointing at him. "You mean you were serious all those times?"
He hedged and erred, forcing himself to laugh it off. "Act, right! It was! I-I was just worried it was a little too much, you know? I mean I don't want to come off as too annoying."
She facepalmed.
He looked at her worriedly.
She sighed. "Don't worry about it. I'm used to it with you."And then she was gone, flying off to her destination.
"W-Wait! What do you mean "used to it"?" He called after her. "Ladybug? Ladybug!"
He had enough time to leap back to the school, and hid between the buildings across the street before turning back. Plagg zipped around, groaning hungrily, but Adrien ignored it.
"Does she think I'm annoying? Is that why she doesn't like me?"
"She said she's used to it, what's the big deal?"
"The "big deal" is that I probably messed up my chance with Ladybug! What if all those times I was trying to impress her did just the opposite?!"
"Then just stop bragging around her, problem fixed."
"It's not that easy, Plagg. Even if I do, I don't know how to actually win her over after all this time."
"Dude, just be yourself. You're like, the nicest guy I know! She'll go nuts for that."
"And how exactly am I supposed to do that while we're busy saving Paris? Besides..." He almost looked as though he were going to continue, and then the wind whooshed out of him with a long, drawn out sigh. "You heard her. She's already found someone. They're probably already happy together."
His disappointed musings were cut short when a familiar car rolled up to the front of the school. "C'mon, Plagg. Let's go home." He opened his outer shirt up to let him in, and trudged across the street.
When Marinette got in her room, she was distraught. Tikki sighed, plopping down on her bed tiredly.
"Tikki, am I doing the right thing?"
"About what, Marinette?"
"About trying to get Adrien to fall for me! Tikki, what if I came out and confessed to him? Would people react the same way? Would there be akumas, this time coming after me?"
"That's hard to say," she admitted. "Some of these akumas are happening because of Ladybug and Cat Noir. They probably wouldn't care so much about "Marinette".
"But what if they do!?" She wailed. "What if I get hordes of crazy fans coming after me everywhere I go, and all our dates are hounded by the press and even more crazed fans destroy any chances we have at private time together and Adrien decides it's not worth the effort and dumps me and-"
"Marinette, calm down!" Tikki flew into her face to get her attention. "You're worrying too much! It's not going to be as bad as you think."
"...But if I am targeted, that means Chat Noir would have to face them on his own. And I'd have to keep switching between myself and "Ladybug" and I could mess up somehow. I mean, he almost discovered my identity already! If I have to keep changing, things could slip up for sure!"
"You're right, it is a risky plan," Tikki agreed sympathetically. "More than anything, I think other people would start to get suspicious too."
"Tikki, does this mean I… I can't be with him? Not until Hawkmoth's gone?"
"You could still accept his feelings as Ladybug."
"But I want real dates, Tikki! I want us to go to the movies together, go to concerts, and go out for ice cream, and be able to go on romantic outings! We can't do that as superheroes!"
"You're right, you have to do what's best for Paris. But even if you can't go out like you wanted, are you really ok with him never knowing how you really feel?" Tikki asked pointedly. "It's your choice, Marinette. But I think you'll be happier at least letting him know."
Marinette was silent as she looked at her phone, where the smiling face of her love stared brightly up at her. A hero listened to her head, not her heart. The question was, what was the right choice when even your head was a mess?
A few miles away, someone else was wondering the same thing. He was staring solemnly out his car window with a growing ache of disappointment.
I don't love him because I think he can "save me". I love him because he's kind to me.
It just didn't make sense to him. She was brave, and confident, practically a genius in her own creative way, and she just wanted someone "nice"?
Nah, this guy, whoever he was, had to be the most perfect guy on the planet. From the sounds of it he was friendly, kind, and ridiculously handsome, even moreso than him. Not in a "vain" way, but come on, he was a literal model, and she was saying some other guy's smile was the most beautiful thing in the world. And he was helpful and "sweet" on top of everything else. Honestly, how was he ever going to compete with that? He'd love to try to be "kind" and "helpful" to win her over, it wasn't like he didn't know how. The only way would be if they went out somewhere, just to hang out or something. But she never agreed to it every time he tried. More than anything, he really wanted to meet this guy for himself. Who the heck was perfect enough to catch the eye of Ladybug?
He bumped his head against the window, brows crinkling as his jealousy stirred again. This guy sounded too good to be true. Adrien hoped he was secretly a jerk or something.
But even if he was, there was… really no point, was there?
Sorry. But I'm in love with someone else.
Marinette was right. Ladybug hadn't fallen in love with him after all. Maybe it was time he finally switched targets. For good this time.
When they came through the door, he had prepared himself to trudge up the stairs to get started on his homework, but was surprised at Nathalie's voice speaking to him from the door.
"Adrien, your father wishes to see you."
He blinked, wondering why he was breaking his schedule. He knew for a fact that the man was normally finalizing his themes for the upcoming lines around this hour. Yet he followed her into the man's office, looking at his father's back. The man was staring up at the golden painting of his mother.
"Is it true?" He asked. "Are you in love with Ladybug?"
Adrien sighed. He'd gone through this all week already, and it was starting to wear on him. Plus, he thought the man was convinced by now. He let his head drop as he forced himself to speak. "No, father. She's just been protecting me from all the akuma attacks. There's nothing between us."
"I didn't ask if there was anything between you," He said suddenly, curtly as he turned to look at him over his shoulder. "I asked if you are in love with Ladybug."
Adrien flinched, both from the question, and the steely tone from the man. It was nothing like the excited barrages all through the week. Those eyes that bore down on him weren't like anything he'd ever seen before on him. And for a weird, strange moment, he felt scared. Not in his usual "respect" of his father's authority, but an honest to goodness fear of the consequences of his answer.
But the fear was pointless, worthless, and he dropped his gaze. "No, Father. Now can I please go?" He asked, voice cracking as he held himself together.
"...Very well. You may go," He said briskly.
The boy gratefully beat a hasty retreat, and the door shut with finality behind him. Nathalie looked up at Gabriel.
"What do you plan to do, sir?"
"Hard to say. I cannot have him admit to anything without revealing who I am."
"And if it's true?"
The silence was heavy, so much so that even Nathalie was worried.
"… This changes nothing. The plan is still the same. Tomorrow, we'll begin."
"We should break up."
Chat Noir, who had just told her that he didn't have much time since his father wanted him for some kind of appearance, stared at her. "...What?"
"With you as "Adrien"." Ladybug explained. "No one believes we aren't a thing. So go on TV, and say that we were secretly dating, but now all the akuma attacks have made you decide dating a superhero is too dangerous. We can't have people talking about us like this if it's causing this much commotion."
She expected his hesitation from her suggestion, and an argument, of course, and was already bracing herself for his rebuttal.
"Uuuum, isn't there something else we could try?"
"Look, Cat Noir, I know this will be hard with your feelings for me, but if we can just convince people that we're not involved, then-"
"It's not that!" He said quickly. "I know we have to do something. I just don't want to say that we've already been dating, since… Well..." He seemed oddly hesitant, nervous, and uncomfortable in a way Ladybug couldn't ever remember seeing him. "I may… want to ask someone out soon, and it would look pretty bad if I said I had just been dating someone."
Ladybug blinked, wide-eyed. "...What?"
"You remember Kagami, right?" He said, cheeks turning a little pink. "She's actually my fencing partner. We've been hanging out for a while. She's pretty cool, and… she told me recently she's fallen for me, so lately I've been thinking that maybe… we should… give it a try?"
He was looking at her, almost… Nervously? Or was it hopefully? Ladybug couldn't be sure, she was too busy trying and failing to make her mouth shut.
"Ladybug?"
"Oh, wow Cat Noir, I had no idea!" She managed to say instead, forcing herself to smile. "Congratulations! But wow I'm sure surprised, I mean… Kagami just seems so, you know, serious! I-I didn't think she was your type!"
"Yeah, but she can be pretty cool at times," He said, and there was an oddly… sad glint to his smile. "She's actually nice once you get to know her. And she's strong, too. She could probably even give you a run for your money," he joked.
But then he fell silent, looking down at his hands on top of his pole. Ladybug did the same, trying to filter through the emotions suddenly tumbling through her.
'He's… he's giving up on me. I mean on Ladybug, and going for...'
"Wasn't…. there someone else?" She asked in a small voice. And she wanted to kick herself, but the words just wouldn't stop, because she had to know, she had to hear for herself. "That- that girl who tried to have a date with you. Maribell or something? She- she said something when I rescued her, and..."
"Marinette? She told you about that?" He winced, rubbing at the back of his head. "Ah, yeah, that was tough. I'm glad she feels better about it now. But she's just a friend. I couldn't ever really see her like that."
She pressed her lips together, and her hands wouldn't stop shaking. "Oh..."
"Don't get me wrong, she's really nice!" Ever the nice guy, he was quick to praise and speak well of her. "She's super helpful, and talented! I'm glad to have her as a friend. But we've barely had a real conversation," he finally admitted with a half-shrug that said 'oh well, that's life'. "She's super shy, and so nervous all the time. I try to help when I can, but I think she just flusters so easy it's hard to really get to know her, you know? I kinda worry about her sometimes..."
And as she looked at him, her cheeks grew red until she finally buried her face in her hands. Ugh, she knew it! She knew he couldn't possibly fall in love with her stupid, clumsy self! Not only was her crush getting in the way, but her fear of him "realizing" who she really was just made her more nervous, which made their interactions… well, just as he described. No wonder he never fell for her.
"Ladybug? Are you feeling alright?"
"I'm fine!" She assured, smiling up at him weakly. "I'm really glad! You finally have a chance to be happy!I'm sure you and Kagami will be great together!"
She could see his face falling, his expressions an open book, as always. But he was quick to smile back, and he reached for her hand. "I'm always happy whenever I'm with you, milady," he assured, bringing her hand to his lips. "You'll always have a special place in my heart."
His attention on her hand, he didn't see the pain on her face, or the longing in her eyes. Only the saddened smile. "...I know, Cat Noir." Then she pulled her hand back. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Of course," he said. Then stepped back to bow low. "Until next time."
And then he was gone, already vanished into the night. She stood under the moonlight, gazing longingly up at the stars.
"This is what's best for Paris… isn't it?"
"Marinette! Why didn't you tell him?!"
"You heard him, Tikki. He's already going for Kagami."
"The only reason he's going for Kagami is because he thinks he doesn't know you! But he does!"
"But I can't tell him that! AAAAAAAGH, TIKKI THIS IS THE WORST!" She fell to her knees, grabbing at her head as she cried to the ceiling. "I know he's in love with me but I can't tell him why!"
"Listen to me, Marinette!" She zipped in front of her face, gesturing and flitting about wildly as she ranted. "Hawkmoth is still out there, and your number one priority is stopping him and all these akumas! But that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your happiness to do it! You can't tell Adrien who you are, but you can still tell him you love him! Even if he can only see a part of you right now, isn't it worth it to be with him, even if it's only to save Paris?"
Marinette looked up at the energetic and emotional kwami, smiling slowly as she started bringing the pieces into place. "You're right… you're right, Tikki! We can still be together!"
"Yes!" The kwami cheered. "Now you have to go to him, tonight, before he talks to Kagami!"
"Tikki, SPOTS-!"
"WAIT! … I'm still hungry."
"Oh, sorry."
A few minutes of eating, and then a transformation later, Marinette was bolting down the rooftops of Paris, sailing and leaping for her destination. Time and time again she had failed to tell Adrien the truth of how she felt, and her clumsy nature and terrible luck just spawned her at every turn. But would it be different as Ladybug? Would she have the confidence and the luck to finally get her feelings across to him?
She stopped outside his house, ducking down to peer over the edge of the roof. Outside his gate was a swarm of reporters and cameras hounding him, and his assistant holding up her tablet device.
"What's going on?" Ladybug wondered out loud, before memory served her, and she answered her own question. "Oh, that's right! Cat Noir said his dad had something planned."
Of course, this far away, she couldn't hear what was being said, so she pulled out her yo-yo and activated the screen.
"Don't be bemused, it's just the news. I'm Nadia Chamack, right outside Gabriel Agreste's mansion, where he's called a press conference in light of the recent events centering around his son, Adrien."
The camera zoomed in on the pair, Adrien of course appearing taller next to his father on the video call screen. Adrien smiled at the cameras obligatorily, though seemed just as in the dark as the rest.
"My son has been the center of many rumors lately, which I would appreciate to cease immediately, given the danger it keeps putting him in. I cannot bare to see him in such a position. That being said, I am eternally indebted to Ladybug and Cat Noir for protecting him from the onslaught of Akuma attacks recently. As a token of appreciation, I'd like to invite them both to dinner to the establishment of their choice."
Ladybug gasped, eyes honed in on both the older man, and his young son, who looked to with equal surprise. "A… dinner?"
Down below, in the center of the hubbub, Adrien's surprise made way for disappointment. "Father, you're wasting your time. Ladybug never accepts these invitations, you know that."
"I do," the man assured. "But so long as the sentiment is out there, I'm sure the message will get across."
He raised a brow, a little confused as to how that worked, until a surprised shout from the reporters got his attention. The sea of paparazzi parted before them, showing a familiar red-clad superheroine rising from her three-point landing, and making her way toward them.
Adrien gaped. "Ladybug?"
"Gabriel Agreste," she acknowledged, her lips curling into a smirk. "I accept your invitation."

YOI Future!Verse ABO AU, Visual Headcanon Web Charts #01
So I always wanted to make one of these. Turns out my headcanons for the most part are WAY too wordy for these things and uh, they’re a bit of a mess >.>;; BUT I hope nonetheless that they’re somewhat fun to read even if barely legible, it was fun to make ^ ^;
1. Super basic relationship chart of the core members of the lovely poly family in this AU.
2. “Adults Think,” the color of each adult indicates their feelings towards the person to whom the arrow is pointing.
3. “Kids Think,” the color of each OC kid indicates their feelings towards the person to whom the arrow is pointing.
There’s obviously a lot more to it than what could be crammed in the lil text boxes, but a gist and pretty much the first things that immediately popped into my mind regarding their interactions. 2 and 3 also mostly show their thoughts while the kids are younger, which will change a bit as they grow up, to be covered in a future post.
*Recommended you right click view image to see full size bc the text is tiny oops
Because the text is so illegible, text only versions of charts 2 and 3 beneath cut, all elaborated quite a bit because I’m so rambly oops:
~~
IF YOU ARE NEW TO THIS AU: It’s Yuuri-centric polyamory in an ABO setting, Yuuri’s married to four mates (Victor, Yurio, Phichit, Minami) and they have OC kids.
BASICS of this AU
INTRO to how ABO works in this AU
OTHER POSTS (comics + illustrations) in the Future!Verse ABO section of my YOI Masterpost.
~~
Please keep ship bashing out of the comments/tags. Don’t like, just skip <3 Thank you.
~~
PLEASE DO NOT REPOST, EDIT, OR OTHERWISE USE MY ART WITHOUT MY EXPLICIT PERMISSION. More detailed rules available on my Rules & FAQ Post.
~~
Yuuri thinks:
Victor: Vitya I love you but there are some things I REALLY wish you wouldn’t encourage with the kids, I don’t care if you could do it when you were younger it’s terrifying!!
Yurio: Yura, how does it feel now that the kids all think you’re older than me? NO don’t use this as an excuse to call me baby-faced!!
Phichit: PHICHIT please knock some sense into the others, you’re my only hope!--NO don’t just sit back and laugh! I was counting on you!
Minami: Kenjirou, you’re my student and husband NOT my butler, I can get my own bags thank you very much.
Yasha: Darling you can wear whatever you want but PLEASE wear SOMETHING under that dress the old ladies at the park will never look at me the same again
Shura: You don’t need to try so hard to be a rebel, and you also don’t need to spoil Yasha so much. Just tell him no, he’ll deal.
Arisa: Darling it’s amazing that you can do that and I’m so proud of you but please don’t hack the neighbor’s security system again, it’s very hard to explain to them that my toddler was just stretching her intellectual curiosity.
Yuuji: Yuuji, your smile warms my weary soul and I’m sure you’ll inevitably be a little trouble maker too but let me be in denial a bit longer.
Victor thinks:
Yuuri: It’ll be fun, they can handle it, please don’t look at me like that, I’m (pretty) sure they’ll be okay...
Yurio: You may seem like the more responsible parent but you’ll always be my cute bratty student. Now that my seniority is less obvious though, I’m comfortable making you indulge my own brattiness too. what do you mean you were always forced to indulge my brattiness
Phichit: You may act like the most reasonable parent but I see through you--and I’m proud. We’re startlingly alike if I’m honest. Let’s conquer the world.
Minami: You may be a bratty puppy but I rest easy knowing you’re always be Yuuri’s side. Couldn’t ask for a more loyal or dangerous watch dog. Don’t worry I do think of you as human, really.
Yasha: Trust me, I know how fun it can be to tease your brother but take it easy sometime, yes? I love you having fun but it hurts my soul to see Shura have red eyes so often...though yes I do admit that’s cute too OTL
Shura: Sweet child, come here, did Yasha make you cry again? Daddy will give you all the hugs. Don’t run away just because Yasha’s in my other arm!
Arisa: I feel like your adorable eyes are judging me...and guess what, they’re still adorable!! It’s okay, you can judge me all you want! *HUGS*
Yuuji: I have dropped the dishes so many times because it looked like you wanted a hug...I can’t help it...you’re like, a super mini Yuuri...
Yurio thinks:
Yuuri: OI Katsudon, I made this new food thing, try it, am I better than Phichit yet? YEAH NO I know I won’t ever be a better all rounder than him but...what, it’s really good? W-W-WELL OF COURSE IT IS I KNEW THAT HA HA HA *flees*
Victor: I’m mature enough now to recognize what a brat you can be, not that I didn’t already know but--HEY DON’T LAUGH THAT WASN’T PERMISSION
Phichit: Okay FINE I admit I need your help...stop looking so smug! Yes, ugh, fuck that’s clever, alright I know (fuck it’s worse because he’s genuine and never follows up with “I told you so”)
Minami: YOU HAVE SOME NERVE CALLING ME YOUR RIVAL JUST BECAUSE YOU WON GOLD OVER ME TWICE, it was all thanks to Yuuri! NO I’m not being overly conscious of you as a competitor, ugh FINE I admit your skating really impresses me but FUCK YOU
Yasha: Brat, did you just...make me run around the house five times for no reason at all?? UGH I’m not even mad, I’m too tired and too used to this, it’s my own fault for falling for it every time...
Shura: What do you MEAN “I bet you cried a lot when you were a kid too,” don’t say that to me while CRYING like ugh FINE will it make you feel better if I said I did??? Please stop crying I don’t want you to cry OTL
Arisa: Risa, I don’t want to suspect you, but I have a hunch you might be the one putting the twins up to mischief and I think you’re still too young and I want to think you’re as pure and innocent as you look but...dare I trust my instincts on this...
Yuuji: YUUJI YOU EASE YOUR FATHER’S WEARY SOUL how are you so pure you seem to make my adult exhaustion melt away...
Phichit thinks:
Yuuri: Perks of marrying your BFF: know just the perfect amount to pamper and also to tease. And also know all the deepest darkest secrets you’re too embarrassed to tell your other mates. Shh it’s okay they’ll never hear it from me ;D
Victor: We had some rough moments early on but you’re a good guy, Victor. I recognize our compatibility. Let’s conquer the world together and present it to Yuuri.
Yurio: I’ll look after you, not-so-lil Russian, you leave your troubles to me. I know how vulnerable you can be and I see you as my own now.
Minami: Kenjirou may act like a super groupie but he has it together better than most of us. I trust him to still prioritize Yuuri even in situations where the rest of us are emotionally compromised, which gives me the confidence to go full offense.
Yasha: Oh, you say someone’s picking on Shura at school? Okay, so here’s what you do, and here’s how to pin the blame on someone else because we wouldn’t want Yuuri to be called to school yeah?
Shura: Your brother’s picking on you again? But you don’t want him to stop either? Well then, how should we solve this? Oops is he a future masochist to Yasha’s sadist...
Arisa: I see what you did there, very clever, I’m proud! But if Yuuri found out he’d have a heart attack, so let’s not do that again, okay? Here’s something even more difficult for you to try to figure out...
Yuuji: Yuuji sweetheart I know making Victor drop dishes is funny but Yuuri likes those dishes, one last time ‘kay? You can make him do other things equally amusing but slightly less destructive of our collective family property.
Minami thinks:
Yuuri: Y-Y-Yuuri-san, NO I still can’t take the honorific off, I RESPECT YOU TOO MUCH plus it makes it feel that much more intimate in bed *turns brilliant red to match his hair streak*
Victor: Victor look at what I taught the twins!! Aren’t they absolutely amazing?! They’re going to break all of your records! And I can tell you’re not even upset :’D
Yurio: I never mentioned rivalry, you were the one who used that word first? ;3 But in all honesty, it’s an honor to be considered the rival of Yuuri-san’s rival so I’ll fight my hardest to not let that title go to shame.
Phichit: The fact that you are both fun and terrifying is not news to me, I’m glad you’re my family and not my enemy. I’ve seen what you can do to your enemies. Participated too, actually he he.
Yasha: You and your bro are perfect angels and I’ll show you all the cool skating things! I’m so happy your enthusiasm hasn’t died as you’ve grown older <3
Shura: It’s good to cry! Cry all you want! I’ll cry with you too! It can be a real sobfest! And then Yuuri can bring us tissues and then it can be a snotfest! Whoo!!
Arisa: DARLING CHILD you are the sweetest and you’d never do anything naughty, I have not a clue what the others are talking about. *genuine*
Yuuji: *SOBBING*
Yasha thinks:
Yuuri: MOM IS THE BEST AND MINE, YOU CAN’T HAVE HIM, and that includes all you dads so back off ;P
Victor: Dad is weak to puppy eyes and will give me anything I want. His affection can sometimes be stifling, but I love him nonetheless.
Yurio: Dad always gets flustered really easily and it’s fun to test his boundaries. And push them. And break them. But he never snaps, I think he’s getting stronger...
Phichit: The really smart dad who sees through all the pranks but still plays along, even intentionally lets me finish playing my pranks on him. It’s a bit annoying even if I appreciate it. I gotta up my game.
Minami: Ken-chan’s the BEST and he and mum are gonna kick dads’ (Victor + Yurio) asses in the next competition. I’ll cheer for dads too but Ken-chan’s No. 1!
Shura: He’s fun to make cry because he gets riled up, but the best part is the comforting that I get to do afterwards because no matter how mean I am he still comes running <3
Arisa: I’d beat you up if you hurt my sister, except she’d do it first and better than I ever could so I’ll just be prepared and bring the popcorn and watch from the front row, maybe help with clean up.
Yuuji: He’s not as innocent as he looks but you won’t hear it from me. Let the others live in denial, come to the dark side in your own time lil bro.
Shura thinks:
Yuuri: I want mum’s attention but Yasha hogs it, but mum’s the best so he makes time for me too and not just for selfish jerks like Yasha. Even if I have to share. It’s okay. I love how mum loves everyone all the same.
Victor: Dad spoils me rotten but he’s not a good shield against Yasha because he also spoils Yasha rotten. He spoils everyone. It’s okay tho, dad has a lot of spoiling to go around.
Yurio: Dad sorta gets picked on too and I sympathize...it makes me feel better knowing he was probably just like me when he was younger. The hard part is getting him to admit it, but that’s what other parents are for.
Phichit: Dad holds the answers to life and the universe in his magic smartphone. He has yet to fail to answer a single question but I’ll keep trying.
Minami: Ken-chan always plays with us even when he’s busy and shows us all the cool skating things! I didn’t get why he wasn’t dad too when Yasha and I were younger, but I’m glad that’s fixed now, though I still can’t shake the habit of calling him Ken-chan.
Yasha: He makes me cry and is such a JERK but I can’t stand to be away from him, it makes me so anxious, and he gives good hugs too so I forgive him (am I being too easy on him...)
Arisa: I want to say I protect her but it’s honestly the other way around, the best I can do is make sure she doesn’t hurt herself because she’s really reckless and it’s TERRIFYING, I sympathize with mom...
Yuuji: PLEASE DON’T STEP ON MY LIL BRO, HE IS VERY SMOL, he looks like he would go squish with one step! Risa wasn’t this smol?? What do you mean I’m bigger now so my sense of size is biased...?
Arisa thinks:
Yuuri: I’m going to protect mum. He doesn’t need it, at all, but I can do it so I will.
Victor: Dad acts gullible but I’m not fooled. He’s weak to puppy eyes though, that’s for real. And I have the best puppy eyes, or second to Yuuji. I’m okay being second to Yuuji.
Yurio: Dad’s trying really hard but he’s also really gullible so I can’t help but tease him. It’s okay I won’t be too mean, and I’ll even reign Yasha back some.
Phichit: Dad knows I’m smart and will protect my bros so he gives me the tools and education to do so. I don’t think mum and my other dads know just quite how much but it’s okay. We’re not hiding it on purpose.
Minami: If you hurt Ken-chan, I’ll knock your teeth out. I’d say “with my fists,” but I don’t think I can reach. It’s okay, I’m creative.
Yasha: My partner in crime, he’ll follow my orders even if they’re impossible and will somehow make it work. Because Yasha’s a miracle-worker and I believe in him.
Shura: The only ones who can make him cry are me and Yasha. But we do it a lot. Which means he has no more tears for anyone else. Back off or I’ll make you disappear : )
Yuuji: He is my squishy smol. He’s smaller than me! He never complains when I hug him and squish his cheeks until they turn red, and then I feel a bit bad...
Yuuji thinks:
Yuuri: Mum is the best! He gives me a lot of attention because I’m the youngest, but I kinda want a younger sibling too. Dads always hush me when I try to bring it up and I don’t really get why.
Victor: Dad spoils me rotten and I kinda feel bad because he never says no to me (or any of us), but when I mention it he gets all teary eyed and spoils me worse...^ ^;
Yurio: Dad is too paranoid about my safety. I’ll be big and strong like the others too! Just wait! Look how big dad is, I’ll be that tall one day too. What do you mean, that’s not how genetics works?
Phichit: Dad makes the best food, I wish he were home more often...I know he’s busy with his ice show in Thailand and it’s really really cool but I miss him...
Minami: Dad says he hit his growth spurt late, because he presented late. I BELIEVE! I won’t be smol forever!
Yasha: Yasha-nii has really good instincts and is there when I need him. It’s like he has a special radar and then brings the whole cavalry. So I don’t need to worry about going anywhere by myself--what do you mean, I shouldn’t be wandering off in the first place??
Shura: Shura-nii got picked on again, it’s okay, here’s a cookie I made with Yuri-dad and here’s a hug, I have short arms but love power!
Arisa: She’s my favorite sister! Even if she’s my only one! She gets really proud when I say it and I’m happy she’s happy so I say it a lot.

I was debating whether I should post this here but i decided that I would because more than anything I want to be able to remember this experience and for those who continue to read this post, maybe it can provide them with more insight on how things operate at Kpop concerts. also, I hope this post can provide some laughter and that whoever reads it, will fall in love with vixx even more because heck I sure did <3 
warning: the following blurbs you are about to read contains many many grammatical error and may not even make sense because I wrote it after the concert at around 2am in an attempt to remember everything so please bear with me OTL I also didn't go into too much detail about the format and setlist because I mainly wanted to remember the things VIXX did and their cute interactions with one another. enjoy! 
----
Rehearsal
They came out in their casual clothes and omg they looked so freaking fluffy!!! And can I just say that they have such amazing skin like holy they didn’t have makeup on but they still looked pretty and glowy and flawless like how? Hongbin was in this navy long zip hoodie and a plain white shirt paired with blacked jeans? Damn he looked so good in such a simple outfit! Poor bb looked so sleepy though :( hyukkie omg I feel bad because I don’t remember exactly what he was wearing but I think he was wearing a white shirt as well? I was too focused on him being adorable and teasing Leo haha so they performed 2 songs during rehearsal - good night and good morning as well as dynamite and during dynamite hyuk playfully tapped Leo’s cap xD so yeah Leo was wearing a baseball cap with Chicago on it? And his outfit was mostly white, I would say his was the most laid back for sure! Ravi was in a black tee and black pants and a black beanie as well (all black lol) i am sad to say that Ravi looked tired as well and didn’t smile much but he still killed his rap parts though! Next is hakyeon! That boy was dressed up looking chic as hell! He was also in an all black outfit but he had a leather? jacket on and black skinny jeans. He looked like he was in a good mood because he smiled quite often and said some things to the audience. Last but definitely not least is jaehwan. He was in a black hoodie which this scary picture of a doll on it lol as well as black jeans. He was sooo freaking smiley and there were times where he kinda bounced around on stage? He waved a lot to the audience and when rehearsal was over he was the last to leave the stage ^_^
Actual concert
this was such a blur! I was so sad we were only allowed to record 3 songs so I don’t even have a video for on and on (which is my fave song). But they all killed it! 100% killlllled it and they sound just as good live as they do on their CDs, no joke. since Im a hongbin stan I glued my eyes to him the majority of the time but seriously when it comes to dancing, hakyeon draws so much attention. Just the way he effortlessly moves and theres just so much passion when he dances. I couldn’t help but stare *_* jaehwan dances with a lot of power and confidence and he might not be the main dancer but I still think he did an amazing job! hyuk when he dances he’s freaking MANhyuk! he also has a lot of power when he dances like I don’t know how to explain it like his moves are just so intricate? hongbin my precious bean sweated so much LOL it was to the point that he grabbed a towel every chance he got and turned away from the crowd to wipe it xD I could tell he was super focused when dancing and damn he moves fast like one sec he was on the left side of the stage and then the next he was already on the floor on the right side of the stage! Judging by the amount of sweat and how he kept wiping his upper lip cuz of the sweat, he really worked hard <3 (he also freaking did a lip lick thing that drove me into a frenzy ugh) during to us, all the fans held up a banner and just enjoyed the song together. it was such a good feeling, to have so many starlights in one room and have vixx right in front of us ;;;;
Apart from the songs they also did this interactive-ish thing with us! Like prior to going into the concert we were allowed to write something we would like them to do on a sticky (ex. Jaehwan please do aegyo) etc and so hyuk designated himself to be the “MC” and how it worked was that each member would choose one of the stickies for the member on their right. Leo chose first and he chose one for jaehwan and what he had to do was sing a part from his musical. He did so without using his mic and at that moment I knew exactly what an angel sounded like *_* everyone in the crowd was in awe that I think we cheered too early because it looked like jaehwan wanted to continue still but stopped and clapped and then went back to his seat. Hakyeon even pointed out that the crowd was just waiting to scream because we went from “ahhhhh” to “WOOOOOODFGDFGDFGD” real quick haha next jaehwan chose a sticky for hakyeon! He took his time choosing and hakyeon actually got off his seat and went up to jaehwan (I guess to make sure he isn’t choosing something too difficult for hakyeon to do lol) and while jaehwan was choosing he beatboxed a little which drove us insane <3 hyuk said somethings like “oh choose for your love N, you bro N, your mother father N” XDD jaehwan finally chose one which was also for hakyeon to perform a song from his upcoming musical? I wasn’t too sure if it was from a musical because the translator there sucked lol hakyeon said he had to prep because he doesn’t rmr some lines but in the end he sang beautifully like he never ceases to amaze me with his voice that is just so suitable for ballads & lullabies yenno he kept going until hyuk had to intervene and tell him to stop he still kept going and it got crazy when ken started singing as well haha such cuties!! Anyway so next hakyeon chose for hongbin and omgosh I saw my sticky and was really hoping hakyeon would choose it but he didn’t OTL i wrote it for hongbin, asking if he could sing a ballad because precious bb has a lovely voice and deserves to sing more! In the end hakyeon chose one in which hongbin had to do aegyo and boy did he struggle! The first time he did it it was pretty quick but still adorable nonetheless because his voice went all high pitched eeee so hyuk actually made him do it a second time and it was slightly longer and his voice went from high back to his usual lowish voice cuz he got so embarrassed.. hongbin said something and the translator said hongbin was sad because starlights didn’t understand his true feelings TT I guess he really didn’t want to do aegyo :( hongbin chose for Ravi and my Rabin feels were reignited because hongbin took two stickies and allowed Ravi to choose one! Ravi chose to also do aegyo I think? And he ended up doing the “oppa song”??? some cute music played and Ravi had to do aegyo to it but it seems like he was prepared and did it without hesitating that even the members joked and commented that he was really good at it LOL our Ravi may be the badass rapper and has tats to prove it....but he is too cute when he wants to be :3
Somewhere in there Ravi had to do an eye battle with hakyeon and lol hakyeon was so pumped and ready, being so confident he was gonna win and had that smug look on his face while provoking ravi by playfully hitting him on the chest. In the end hakyeon did win (but I feel like thats because he purposely made Ravi blink HAHA). Ravi chose for hyuk and hyuk had to dance to chained up double speed! That of course was too easy so it got ramped up to triple speed and I think later to quadruple speed?? Triple/quadruple speed was hella fast and hyuk was moving so fast that by the end of it he was so exhausted and joked that he can never do a concert again! He looked a bit frazzled afterwards so ken was like are you ok??? Oh yeah and we somehow got ken to do triple/quadruple speed as well but he didn’t even try to go super fast because srsly it’s killer! Hyuk was still recovering so Leo asked if he could chose his own and hyuk let him. Leo chose to perform a bit of whisper with Ravi!!!!! It was just the chorus but they did a bit of the chore and leo sang without the music and Ravi rapped without the music as well *_* because leo cheated by basically making it into a joint mission with Ravi, hyuk later chose another sticky for leo LOL this required leo to write each of the members name with his belly button xD poor leo didn’t want to do it at all and kept saying its weird!! He struggled so much and actually did his signature collapse onto the floor dying from embarrassment HAHA he managed to complete it but he did so by moving his entire body across he stage like he sat right next to hyuk on the right side but by the end of it he was all the way to the left side standing right in front of Ravi haha ken and hyuk demonstrated that you don’t have to move ur entire body but just your upper body xD then they wrapped up that segment and performed some more songs! after the final song when they were bowing and exiting the stage, ken did not want to leave and kept waving and blowing kisses ahhh those bbkins <333 hongbin legit had to come out, and drag him off the stage LOL then hongbin popped back out and did a heart with his hands ahhhh
I also just wanted to note that jaehwan was just a ball of sunshine throughout the entire concert. He constantly waved enthusiastically and smiled his puppy smile. he was just so playful and when fans shouted I love you to him he would immediately say I love you too back and jokingly act like yeah the fans love me most XD jaehwan definitely climbed up my bias list after this and I’m just so glad I got to witness his playful humorous side in real life. it made me think back to vixx’s reality shows and how the members always mention that theyre thankful for ken because ken jokes around and does his best to lighten up the mood after a stressful day ;A; Hyuk also made such a big effort speaking English to us and although it was just short sentences, I was still extremely proud of him and thankful that he made that effort <3 hakyeon too said a lot of sweet things to us and his humble self kept thanking us when really we should be thanking him for gracing us with his presence!!!!! Leo kept his cool demeanour for the majority of the concert, It wasn’t until the very last few songs where they came out not in their usual stage outfits that I saw leo being extra smiley and literally jumping and spinning on stage XD he went right next to jaehwan and started jumping with him (KEO IS REAL OK) hakyeon also made sure to go left to right and say bye to the fans and wave! Same with jaehwan hehe hongbin was mainly on the opposite side of me and oh how I wish he was on my side more during the last few songs!
I noticed that jaehwan was the most popular here like so many people I met that day were jaehwan stans hehe Ravi was also really popular and hakyeon too! Whenever hongbin sang I screamed extra hard because I really want him to feel just as loved and appreciated and same goes for hyuk too because those two have so much to offer!
Photo Op
I was such a nervous wreck LOL my friends and I were all strategizing a plan, trying to make sure we’d end up in front of our biases. it was 15 people per group so when it was our group’s turn I legit blanked out and just tried to navigate towards hongbin. So the order was N, Hyuk, Hongbin, Ravi, Ken, and Leo. I stepped onto the stage and was immediately greeted by N’s smiling face and wave. I waved back automatically and seriously couldn’t do anything but wave Lol i was way too stunned by his 6 foot beauty and that small eye contact! *_* I ended up somewhat in front of hongbin but like on the floor and not on a seat but its okay! The photo op was super quick like they took 2 pics and that was only like 20 seconds! the staff rushed us and kept telling us to move move move -.- As we got up to leave I quickly turned back and looked at hongbin and told him I love you ahhhh he looked at me and smiled and waved and that was all I needed to turn into a big pile of mush ffghfghfghf *_* I think I was able to catch eye contact with jaehwan after and I tried to say bye to leo but failed LOL as I got off the stage I still couldn’t believe I was able to muster up the courage to say something to hongbin eeeep! Oh and vixx is known to be giants right so I was expecting them to tower over me because I’m only 5’4…but up close they weren’t as tall as I expected. yeah they were impressive in height but not what I imagined I guess xD But yeah the photo op went by so quickly and I’m praying to god I look somewhat descent in the pictures they took lol rip
Im so sad that the concerts over and you bet I’m going to suffer from PCD for the next few weeks T_T but I’m just so thankful to have been able to experience this and to finally see them live! all the while meeting some pretty awesome people along the way! It was definitely a memorable concert that I hope to remember many years from now :)

The Real Reason S!Corrin Has a Wyvern
Takumi let out another sigh as he hefted Corrin's knapsack on the scaly wyvern. Corrin beamed gratefully up at him, and finished folding up her set of towels.
"And why, again, am I accompanying you on this beach trip?" Takumi said, raising an eyebrow as his sister adjusted her rather suggestive bikini.
"Because," chirped Corrin, "The beach is a place for fun with family! And you're my family." She pulled Takumi into a warm embrace, which Takumi reluctantly accepted.
"You told me there were five tickets for this family vacation though. And last I checked you and those Nohrian scu-" - at this point Corrin glared at him - "scrappy young go-getters make five."
Corrin stroked the wyvern's head lovingly. "Well you see, Camilla has come down with a little head cold, so she can’t make it. And that's why she lent me her wyvern for some fresh air and to see the spectacular view better."
Takumi frowned. "Okay, but Ryoma could have come instead if you wanted family."
"Ryoma has to tend to royal duties, you know, running the kingdom and all."
"Okay, but Hinoka-"
"Busy."
"Saku-"
"Busy! They're all busy!" Corrin smiled sheepishly at her sudden outburst. "Look... I know you get pretty annoyed being around my other family-"
'No kidding,' Takumi thought. 'Especially that smug jerk Leo.'
"-but I want to be able to forge bonds between my siblings and just have a good time with everyone! So come on Takumi. I'll shout you a free pineapple smoothie at the Tiki bar there."
Takumi scoffed. "Not that old joke again." He self-consciously patted down his spikes, thoughts wandering to Leo's infuriatingly smooth, flat hair. Blushing, and grabbing onto the saddle, he mounted the purple beast. "Now come on, we're gonna be late."
Corrin squealed and grabbed at her brother again. "Yes, let's!"
-----
A flurry of silver and blonde hair and squeals erupted before Takumi's eyes.
"Elise!"
"Corrin!"
Corrin pulled out of her little sister's embrace after a while and ran to hug her older brother Xander, clad in swim trunks and holding an... an inflatable dragon?
Not wanting to interrupt the touching moment, Takumi turned around and busied himself with unpacking his and Corrin's bags. Camilla's wyvern grumbled and unfurled its wings, grateful to have the weight unloaded from its back. He felt something tap his shoulder and turned back to find himself face to face with Elise.
"Hi Takumi!" She grinned up at him, and jumped up to drop a flower necklace around Takumi's neck.
"Oh." Takumi touched at the soft petals. "Thank you, Elise. It's great to see you again." As far as Nohrians went, Elise was quite tolerable. Far better than the curvy overbearing Camilla, and the brusque Xander, and of course better than...
"Hey, if you're wondering where Leo is, he's in the change rooms," Elise said, twirling her hair around her fingers. Was it just his imagination or did her smile turn more mischievous?
Takumi scowled. "Why would I wonder where HE is?"
"You know, you and Leo have so much in common." Her smile grew bigger. "I mean, you're both so smart and cool and love soup! And I've seen you too getting along in the castle, you know, in your own funny ways."
'Getting along? With him?' As much as he hated to admit it, Elise's words rang true. As much as Leo and he bickered, they've had their fun in the past. Trading blows through shogi and chess, practising magic and archery side by side, reading together in the sunset, where the light hit Leo's already bright eyes just right...
"Right Elise, where did you put the sunscreen? Dear god, the sun is so harsh today. I'll need a freshly squeezed glass of tomato juice to refresh me and- oh it's you."
Takumi turned, ready with a quick riposte to Leo's jab. But the words never came. 'Leo. Leo clad in nothing but tight swim trunks and a blue cloak. Leo whose eyes shone brighter than ever.'
"Takumi, it's been a while." Leo's fair skin seemed to be suffering already, with his cheeks already appearing to redden. Takumi's own face felt several degrees hotter than before, and he tried not to openly gape at Leo's half-naked chest.
"Yes, it has, Leo," he replied. "Why, I believe the last time I saw you was when I thrashed you in shogi for the fifth time in a row." He smirked.
Leo scoffed. "At least I understand shogi. It seems you still haven't grasped the concept of checkmating within 10 turns yet."
"Hmph. Well, would the great chess master deign to teach his disciple today?"
"What, and miss out on all the summer fun? The surf, sand, and sea?" Leo looked around briefly, scowling up at the sun. "On second thought, yes let's get out of here." Cloak billowing behind him, he turned to march toward the direction of the Tiki bar. Takumi followed, after Elise shoved a bottle of sunblock in his hand, winked and cryptically said "Good luck!". Yes, he intended to beat the Nohrian scum at his own game.
Once they were long gone, immediately gravitating towards the only semblance of indoors the beach offered as the two nerds were wont to do, Elise let out a long, loud squeal.
Corrin and Xander immediately rushed over from their improvised game of beach volleyball, in overprotective sibling mode. "What's wrong, Elise?" Corrin asked, concerned.
"Nothing. Look, guys!" Elise pointed at the pair of boys walking side to side. Corrin herself let out a squeal and clasped her hands together. Even Xander let out a smirk. "I think I'll hear wedding bells soon."
-----
"So..." Takumi fiddled with the straw of his tomato juice. Leo had offered to buy it for him, and he had to admit, it wasn't the worst drink in the world. "Are you gonna need help doing your back?" He pointed to the sunscreen, and urged himself not to blush. Leo himself was turning red. "That would be very nice, thank you," he finally managed to say.

[request] [scenario] home
Tumblr media Tumblr media
((was this... accomodating OTL i am so drained from studying ;; i luv u cheese anon))
Title: home
Member: seungkwan
Genre: fluff fluff fluff // domestic au + established relationship 
Word Count: 1007
Seungkwan feels like he’s finally gone insane after being in the practice room for six hours straight, perfecting Soonyoung’s choreography for Highlight, which, by the way, is the most exhausting song he’s ever danced to. His feet ache, his thighs hurt, and his lungs burn.
He swears if he hears Soonyoung call him out for not bending his knees low enough, he’s going to bend Soonyoung in half.
“You look ready to commit a murder,” Seokmin grins, tossing Seungkwan a water bottle that bounces off the blonde’s stomach and rolls off towards a sweaty Chan. Chan rolls the bottle back, and Seungkwan takes it, pressing the cold plastic to his face.
“If we have to stay in this room any longer, I will commit a murder.” Seungkwan jumps when his cell phone buzzes, snatching it off the charger, ignoring the smug grin on Seokmin’s face.
“Don’t worry,” Seokmin takes a swig of water, swallowing it before continuing, “Soonyoung knows how you get when you run low on (F/N).” Seungkwan kicks the air in front of Seokmin, scrunching his face into a look of annoyance. “You know it’s true. You get cranky and irritable. Like, right now.”
[11:50 PM] (F/N)-ah: im tired [11:51 PM] seungkwannie: go to sleep? ill be home soon, ill wake you up [11:51 PM] (F/N)-ah: nonono i want to wait for you
“Ew. Gross,” Jihoon gags, looking over Seungkwan’s shoulder. Seungkwan drops his phone into his lap, startled. Jihoon backs away, laughing.
“Hyung!” He whines, “Aish, I get no privacy here!”
“Privacy?” Seungcheol scoffs, placing a hand on Jihoon’s shoulder, “Seungkwan, we had two bathrooms predebut. We’ve literally seen your -”
“Okay, thanks, stop,” Seungkwan protests, covering his ears, “Can I go now?”
“Yeah, you’re already showing withdrawal symptoms,” Soonyoung grins, dodging the water bottle Seungkwan chucks at him. “My point exactly.”
Seungkwan gathers his things, shoves them haphazardly into his bag, and quickly says his goodbyes to his members and manager before bolting out the door and waving down a taxi.
He arrives at the apartment the two of you share at around 12:30 AM, cursing as he fumbles with the security keypad, entering the wrong code twice before gaining access.
The TV light covers the living room with a dim glow, a rerun of a drama playing. He’s not surprised to see you fast asleep, phone in hand, head leaning against the back of the couch.
He drops his bag and presses a kiss to the top of your head, laughing when you swat weakly at his touch, incomprehensible mumbling leaving your lips.
“You said you’d wait for me,” he mutters as you fully awake, finding him leaning over you. He has an undeniably soft pout on his face as he complains, eyes shut out of exhaustion.
You lean up and kiss his pouty lips, dry from hours of sweating at practice and lack of hydration. He lets out a squeak and holds a hand over his lips, a playful glare on his expression.
“Hey, that’s cheating,” he says, slipping over the top of the couch, too tired to walk around. He pulls you into him, your head against his shoulder and his hand in yours. He presses light, fluttering kisses onto your head, inhaling the fresh scent of your freshly washed hair, cold against his lips.
“How was practice?” You muse, your free hand rising to trace his jawline, rubbing his cheek softly and letting out a light chuckle when he leans into the touch.
“Long,” he responds, “I missed you so much I could’ve died. Well, not me necessarily, but… Let’s just say Soonyoung-hyung would be lying in a pool of his own blood if he made us do another run-through.”
You laugh at that, because knowing the drama-queen of a boyfriend you have, he’s exaggerating.
“I missed you too,” you smile, leaning into the kiss he presses against your cheek, content. “But I don’t want to fall asleep out here like last time.”
He winces at the memory of the both of you waking up on the floor below the couch, in a heap of pillows and blankets. He had to attend practice with a stiff back and a throb in his shoulder, while you had to attend classes with a stiff neck and sore arm.
“I should shower first,” he yawns, reluctantly releasing you from his embrace. The lack of warmth is unsettling, but he’d rather not make you reek of his sweat. “I’ll join you in a few, okay?”
Again, he’s not surprised to see you dozing off, phone in hand as you desperately cling to consciousness. He takes a seat on his side of the bed, the soft cushion sinking below his weight. As he dries his hair, he feels you tug at his sweater.
“‘Kwannie,” you mumble, eyelids heavy as you glance up at him, “Hurry up.”
“And I thought I missed you more,” he teases, tossing his hair towel towards the laundry basket. He enters the covers, arms wrapping around your figure to pull you into him.
He presses his forehead to yours, smiling bashfully. “I love coming home to this,” he says, “I love coming home to you.” He presses a kiss to the corner of your mouth, laughing when your soft expression melts into a pouty glare.
“I love you,” he states, hand caressing your cheek, and you quietly mumble back an ‘I love you too’ as he continues. “Without you, well, I’d probably still be sharing two bathrooms with 12 other guys,” he chuckles, “and I wouldn’t have anyone to do this to.”
He runs a thumb over your bottom lip before pressing his lips to yours, breath fresh and minty, lips soft and rehydrated.
The kiss is sweet and slow, not a quick peck or anything too intense.
 You have all the time in the world, and each other.
He can’t wait to repeat the process all over again, tomorrow.
He just hopes it’s vocal practice, because currently, he can’t feel his legs.

Seito plays BOTW (Day idk anymore) 
I’ve been lazy and haven’t been updating this, so it’s long. 
Lost Woods is a miserable puzzle and if I didn’t know what was inside of it, I might have not had the patience for it. 
That said, I picked up the master sword halfway through the game lolololol
Have I mentioned that this version of Zelda is my favorite? BECAUSE SHE IS. She’s a dork, she needs a hug, she has to deal with crippling amount of insecurity and she keeps going. I need like 100000x fics that just deal with her, her relationship with her father and her friendship with Link. 
Finally made it to the Rito Village!!
Now, Rito’s are cool and all, but damn Raveli is a smug jerk. 
YOU SHOULD HAVE PUNCHED HIM IN THE FACE LINK.
Actually Teba is a bit of a jerk too, but his kid is cute and as a father he’s not so bad. (basically when he isn’t letting his temper get the better of him.) 
Razz is amazing though. I love Razz.  
Look, I don’t know if was by accident or because it gives them more colorful personalities, but it’s like all the Rito that you had to talk to for quests kinda came across as a little too smug or arrogance or a little whiny. All the NPCs you don’t have to talk to are really polite and nice. It’s just interesting. Because you also see how a lot of Zora are well happy and polite, Gorons are like big friendly, straight to the point and energetic people too. 
Huh, I wonder if the Rito evolved from the Skyward Sword birds. Actually where does BOTW take place in the LoZ timeline? Need to look that up. 
Raveli might have been a jerk but his Gale special ability thing is utterly amazing and I love it. 
Hebra is cold. I don’t like exploring this section too much. Mostly if I go down somewhere I wasn’t supposed to, climbing back up is such a pain. OTL All the shrines in the area are on the ground which why? WHY? Look just put one that top of the highest peak and I’ll be good okay???
Epona is amazing. We love her. My new favorite horse. 
Gerudo Town, oh my god. The Gerudo outfit and Link and omg. 
FINALLY FOUND THE LAST GREAT FAIRY. All my rupees ;3; 
Also of all the big mini bosses, morgula was the easiest to beat. (Actually finally confident enough to start taking down the mini bosses like the stone tanlus and those Hinlox. But those Lynels.... screw those Lynels...) 
I have found a fast way to get rupees, I never will run out of arrows again. 
But farming for parts for ancient arrows (BASICALLY TAKING DOWN THOSE GUARDIANS) is miserable and I’m not very good at it. -cry- Or I manage it but I don’t gain back enough to justify the lost of supplies used to take down said thing. OTL 
But in other news my ability to use perfect guard is rapidly improving from NOT ABLE TO DO IT to CAN TO IT ONE OUT OF TEN TIMES. And maybe die in the process.
@justm3h is right, Tarreny Town Quest was so adorable and amazing and well worth the time it took to run all over the place for the people. 
Selective Mute!Link is canon. I mean I knew that and had seen screenshots but I found where you see that in the game itself. Nearly died in the process BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. 
Likewise, I have obtained all the captured memories and I think it really was my favorite part of the game. 
Though... I wonder how they had gotten Link from the place where he had fallen to the place where he woken up in the beginning of the game. I mean... the two points weren’t even close together. Not to mention that giant cliff that stops them. 
Actually travel in the cutscenes is weird. I mean why did they take that route? It’s very roundabout. Where were they headed that they were there?? Why? Very confused. 
I have one divine beast left, all my map regions are unlocked, about 30 shrines left and I can’t believe the progress I’m making haha. This game has been amazing so far. I love Zelda games, but this is the first one I’ve played that made me really feel for the characters, explore the world to its fullest extend and I can’t wait to see what happens next.
(Also I heard about DLC and just the artwork alone is beautiful)

Cupkayke Rewatches/Liveblogs Boueibu!
Season 1, Episode 6
Tumblr media
I have no explanation for the stupidly long wait for this one other than the fact that I am a lazy motherfucker. BUT. CHALLENGE TIME- I’m in the midst of a mini vacation from work so when I’m not working on cosplay I WILL BE WRITING. Er, analyzing. Er, plotting. Er, SOMETHING.
Anyway! Onto the episode where Io pissed me the fuck off but still managed to be a loveable asshole in the end, anyway! Also LOTS OF UNDER THE SURFACE SHIT! YAYYYYY. 
I also apologize if I miss responding to some comments on these; with as sporadic as my time on tumblr is these days (90% is on mobile) I can’t fucking remember what replies I’ve reblogged or not OTL
Firstly I haven’t really thought much about it but what’s up with the title for this episode? “Love is something you wear on your back?” Is that a reference to the “so generous he’d give you the shirt off his back” phrase? If that’s meant to apply to Io in this episode for his “loyalty” I think they missed the mark there...
Tumblr media
Yumoto eats a lot apparently- damn son stop growing!
Tumblr media
Was that a sex joke?
Tumblr media
THAT WAS DEFINITELY A SEX JOKE BOUEIBU NOT 2 MINUTES IN I AM SURPRISED AT YOU alsolololololololololololololforever
Tumblr media
FANCY STUDENT COUNCIL IS FANCY omg they’re so fucking rich why do they even have this setup it’s so ridiculous
I sometimes get the feeling that this is a wealthy private school, similar to Ouran academy, with scholarships for low-income students (IE Yumoto). The parallels are there- but as established later in the episode, why the fuck would Yumoto be given a scholarship because it’s definitely not academics.
Maybe the Hakone family is actually wealthy but they just live modestly because their parents are gone and Gora wants to make the fortune last?
I MADE MYSELF SAD.
Tumblr media
Finger bowls????
Apparently I’m an unultured swine because I had to look it up. You dip your fingers in the bowl to clean your hands between courses really???
Can’t we just... y’know... use hand santizier? This is like... 2015 for you guys right?
Tumblr media
However it’s hilarious that Kinshiro decides that FINGER BOWLS of all things are important enough to have for the three of them at lunch so he wants to see if they can afford it.
ALSO I JUST REALIZED THE FORESHADOWING HERE WITH IO HOLY SHIT-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I SMELL RIVALRY
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kinshiro is a grumpy butt. Look at his face. Eat a snickers, Kinchan. You get micro-managey when you’re hungry.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So we’re halfway through the season and Wombat is seemingly trying to point our boys in a particular direction. HMMMMMM. 
Seriously I would love to know just how much of this is Wombat talking out his ass for the sake of the reality show and how much of it is shit he actually believes and he actually wants the boys to do a good job and ‘protect the earth’
I for one am on Wombat’s side because he’s fucking adorable but I do love the conspiracy/manipulation theory~
Tumblr media
Ryuu and foreshadowing in 3...2...1.. WRITERS I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dat dead body smell
Even disgusted Akoya STILL manages to be gorgeous like whoah
Someone get this boy a modeling contract
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
PINKS THROWIN’ SHADE
Tumblr media
I feel like this is the most lines that Akoya has had the entire show
I also realized during his little speech here that EVEN COVERING HIS NOSE his VOICE is still GORGEOUS.
Modeling contract AND record deal, PLZ 
Tumblr media
So smug
Who knew pretty could be so evil~
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mostly just laughed at the cap of the DC all like ‘SHIT HE’S ONTO US’
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So smug x2
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also this is where I started PINKSHIPPING
Like seriously I will go down with this ship even tho IoRyuu is OTP PINKSHIPPING MAKES SO MUCH SENSE
Just the rivalry and the pettiness sign me the fuck up for some angsty, angry making out in the SC bathroom
Whoops I just wrote a mini fanfic
Anyway this is why Cupkayke can’t decide on OTPs for this series because multishipping is fun
Tumblr media
Wombat looks fluffier this episode
Too many Yumoto cuddles?
Tumblr media
Pink kohai and dad-senapis!
Seriously I love the idea of these three hanging out together it’s adorable
Tumblr media
And En is apparently really fucking smart
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The entire conversation about Yumoto’s academic abilities is really interesting-
Apparently he has very good spatial awareness (child show me your ways I cannot directions for the life of me) but poor language skills
I don’t know if I am qualified to speculate about his cognitive state but perhaps it wouldn’t be so far-fetched to say that from that tidbit, Yumoto perhaps has a learning disability?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But then again, here it’s played for laughs/Yumoto’s just lazy and doesn’t see the value in school
Perhaps though he’s not motivated because he’s never really been able to get an instruction style that jives with him? So on certain subjects he’s over being discouraged and just accepts that typical academic instruction just isn’t for him?
This entire scene is fascinating from the lens of a future educator (albeit I haven’t taken any development or learning courses yet) but as someone who likes school Yumoto is the type of person (if he doesn’t have a learning disability, that is) who would confuse me IRL lolololol
“What? You don’t like the rigorous structure and inherent validation system of grading that even though it causes me undue anxiety and stress it gives me a sense of self-worth and purpose and without people giving me deadlines I cannot function?”
Well that got too deep oops I apologize for the too much in-depth taste of Cupkayke’s psyche
Someone more qualified than I am feel free to analyze this scene
Now back to your regularly scheduled magical boy blogging
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lolololol Gora wanting better for Yumoto - such a good big brother
“DON’T BE USELESS LIKE ME” - wait a second
IS THIS A LOWKEY REFERENCE TO GORA’S MAGICAL BOY PAST? Considering Maximum Gorar’s weapon is an axe and he has lots of chopping attacks.... hmmmmmmm did I just discover another layer?
Obviously Gora doesn’t know about the Battle Lovers just yet (or does he?) but still- interesting.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
En trying to make them feel better haha such a sweetiepie
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Atsushi get out of here with your logic
Tumblr media
SWEATS NERVOUSLY
Tumblr media
SCREW MONSTER FORESHADOWING
Tumblr media
En and his ragging on Yumoto. I wonder when he goes from finding Yumoto annoying/exasperating to actually being that caring senpai? I mean, he could just be trying to be playful, but with his face here especially it comes across as he’s annoyed
Idk it’s kind of fascinating tho how he did not care for Yumoto at first
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
YUMOTO I HAVE NO WORDS
T________T
Tumblr media
Revelation; Io is popular
Somehow I didn’t get that until this point in the series, but then again Io isn’t the type to care about his popularity unless it makes him money
So I guess he’s just admired from afar like this lololol
Tumblr media
Io has a stalker- complete with creepy monologuing!
Tumblr media
More screw foreshadowing!
Tumblr media
Yellow phone for Io! They’re actually really heavy-handed with the color coding but most of the time it’s in ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ moments. It’s like a fun game of I spy!
Tumblr media
I can see where the headcanon that Akoya has a crush on Io started- the fact he goes out of his way to compliment Io is a bit telling.
Buuuut I still ship the Pinks over IoAko; but with the caveat of the Pinks both pining over Io and having their feelings unrequited! Oooooh the angst!
Tumblr media
The cute evil is scheming
Tumblr media
IO HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT SO EASILY
Tumblr media
THEY WEREN’T EXPECTING YOU TO SAY YES EITHER LOOK AT THEIR FACES
Tumblr media
...maybe you do get along with the SC Io you seem just about as evil and scheming as Akoya here-
WAIT WHAT AM I SAYING
Tumblr media
WOMBAT IS SO CUTE IN HIS TITLE CARD AWW
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love how Ryuu is trying so hard look at him
Io what’s with that face! How can you betray them all so easily???
It makes no sense!
Tumblr media
Creepy glowing Hedgehog
Tumblr media
I still don’t know how Yumoto can get a ZERO in Japanese. Is it his grammar? Conjugation? Is Japanese like English is in the US where they go over literature and like Atsushi said he makes logic leaps that no one else does so he misinterprets the text? I AM CONFUSED. Wouldn’t he at least get some points? 
Tumblr media
Look at this adorable fucker thanking his boyfriend friend in English!
Tumblr media
En is really fucking smart, though I doubt he guesses ‘everything’
This could play into En’s self-consciousness on how he’s percieved (see his panic about looking ‘old’) and perhaps he also only wants to be percieved as ‘lazily intelligent’. 
It wouldn’t surprise me though if En did study a little bit, just to brush up on some things, or took school seriously but didn’t need to study because he’s really good at regurgitating info on tests
Either way, it seems like he doesn’t want people to know whether he actually cares about school or not so he just says he ‘guesses’ and gets 100s
Idk maybe I’m looking at the wrong angle but that’s not that far fetched I guess?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
….Io… I am a very disappoint
Like this entire episode is out of character for him or at least my understanding of his character
Like, it’s not like he’s particularly very close to any of the DC except for Ryuu, but he doesn’t seem like the type to just up and ‘fuck you guys and everything we’ve been through’
Like it’s no secret he finds the Battle Lover thing bothersome but it’s likely he’s well aware of the fact that if he quits the DC he’s not going to stop having to wear the loveracelet and he’s still going to have to do all the embarrassing superhero things until he stops getting shocked by the thing
And like even if he’s really only in the DC because their ‘meetings’ give him enough downtime to invest in his business ventures I find it highly unlikely that the Student Council would pay him enough to make up for the loss he’d suffer because of his free time getting cut. And Io probably knew that outright.
Unless he is actually a teenage boy liable to acting without thinking! GASP.
Tumblr media
Look, Io, you pissed off the Pink.
Tumblr media
Really pissed him off! Ryuu sees through your bullshit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay. Unpacking here- Io’s face in that cap says to me that he is well aware of how he’s being percieved. He’s well aware that he’s betraying the DC and the person who he would consider his best friend is calling him out on it. That look screams guilt.
However, what he says here- and here is where I am pissed the writers didn’t give us more context- he says ‘money is important/money doesn’t betray’. 
Which if you take him saying this to its most logical conclusion, he’s saying that he feels the DC will betray him at some point. Being involved with the DC, which doesn’t directly make him any money, will hurt him in the long run to the point where he would feel betrayed.
He’s said this before; money doesn’t betray. I can’t remember which episode (which is sad because I just did a write up on it) but I know the context of the conversation was when they were talking about the concept of ‘Love’ with Wombat. Everything Io does is for money. Relationships seem to do jack shit for him. 
But it appears here that this move is premptive. You have to do some inferring but it’s not so far fetched to say that Io has found himself caring for the DC (and potentially the Battle Lover thing) a lot more than he originally thought he would. And perhaps, based on previous experiences (what, we don’t know) he is afraid that they will betray him. Whether in terms of finances, emotions, or both, isn’t clear.
I feel like in the snow episode of s2 there’s a throwaway line about Io making Igloos that might have had some more under the surface about his past- for some reason I inferred he was often lonely as a child. I can’t remember why, though.
But I guess what I’m trying to say here is that this scene would be a whole lot more poignant if we had the entire narrative. Io is making this move, on the surface, because of money. But that’s foolish, especially for someone as smart as him, for the reasons I mentioned above. Even as rich as the SC are collectively, they probably wouldn’t be able to pay Io enough for his treasurer services to make it more lucrative than investing in his downtime with the DC. 
So it seems like he is trading his relationship with the DC- a personal relationship with feelings involved- for a relationship with the SC, one that is primarily business-focused. From their outer appearances, Io definitely knows that ‘rich kids’ like himself don’t tend to focus on friendship, so he’d be relatively safe to keep things strictly business.
Which means Io finds the idea of a business-only relationship more appealing/safer than a relationship based on friendship.
And supposedly, by extension, even if he did have to keep being a Battle Lover, he could keep that relationship strictly business too, by simply showing up and helping fight monsters without actually spending any time with the DC.
But without the context, this is speculation. Is there anything in the novels/comics/games that add to this???
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ryuu is rightfully pissed off! But the look Io gives here says again ‘I know what I am doing is hurtful, but I made my decision in my/everyone’s best interests’. Supposedly.
GAHH I NEED MORE CONTEXT.
Tumblr media
Supporting my theory that Io is simply being a stupid teenager! Which I suppose could also play into the slightly deeper motivations I speculated about. Buuuuut still... a bit of a cop out.
Tumblr media
Monster that makes its own sound effects! Or one that’s attempting to be a Pokemon!
Tumblr media
I love when the boys other than Yumoto get into the fight! Yay!
Tumblr media
I guess they have time for full transformations since they’re missing one! (or they need to pad the episode runtime, MAGICAL BOY STYLE)
Tumblr media
Such an empty yellow spot
Tumblr media
Ryuu… you ran right into it... it’s like you weren’t even trying.
Tumblr media
Well that sounds suggestive
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
THIS MONSTER IS RIDICULOUS I LOVE IT
Tumblr media
EVEN THE OTHERS REALIZE IT
Tumblr media
Poor Ryuu- I’d cry if I was tickled that much, too. I probably would have also pissed myself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Io jfc you can’t just stop being ticklish because an enemy decides to tickle you!
Tumblr media
Nonetheless, boyfriend is pissed
Tumblr media
Oh wait- Io transformation by himself. More screentime padding!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In other words- “GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY MAN”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
DAYUM IO- punch the monster through a fucking WALL. Somebody’s been working out.
Also idk why the color is so off in this action scene- it’s so daaaaark
Tumblr media
“I’m so humilated and my pants are probably ruined”
Tumblr media
“It’s about time you got your head out of your ass and saved my ass or I was gonna kick your ass!”
Tumblr media
Yayyyyyy they made up!
Tumblr media
Why is the monster adorable?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sassing Yumoto, a DC pastime
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
PFFFT YUMOTO MY SMOL PRECIOUS CHILD NEVER CHANGE
Tumblr media
Seriously why is a screw monster so cute
Tumblr media
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before but it so looks like the CA’s pants are actually leeggings
Maybe that’s why Kinshiro wears a cape he’s self conscious about showing off his ass ffffft
Tumblr media
DUN DUN DUN SPOTTED
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pssssssssssh you all are cosplayers at heart
Tumblr media
Oh… is this why Yumoto’s bad at Japanese???
Tumblr media
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN (x2)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love this conversation- even without the underlying context it basically supports my theorizing (except for the implication that the SC would have potentially been more profitable)
Ryuu is right; he knows Io should have been able to calculate which was financially a better deal in three seconds. He probably knows that Io was struggling with something emotionally.
Io’s ‘I can’t tell you that’ is cheeky but I can take it 2 ways actually. Potentially, the SC was more profitable money wise, but the DC is more profitable for Io emotionally. So it could mean both of those things. Or like I thought earlier, the DC could be both emotionally and financially profitable and Io is just being a little shit because he second-guessed everything but doesn’t want to admit why.
Buhhhhh these boys.
Tumblr media
Pshhhh En YOU DID NOTHING AND YOU’RE TIRED
Tumblr media
OHHHH YOU GUYS AGAIN - interesting implications fufufufufufufufufu
Tumblr media
You look like a cat Kinosaki
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And lastly.. Dat face
Kinshiro has the evil villain glare/’stare into the camera like you’re on the office’ look down PAT
Well then! I don’t know if my ramblings about Io’s motivations made much sense but that’s like, the ONLY thing I can think of that justifies his willingness to leave other than he was just being a little shit and following the yen for no reason. Again, if there’s any other canonical evidence from other media that explains this episode please point me in that direction because I am confused! This explanation makes sense but... I don’t understand how the writers wanted the audience to take this episode. Reminds me of Tokyo Mew Mew where Zakuro repeatedly threatened to leave/actually almost did leave the Mew Mews, sometimes because of her own insecurities and sometimes because Mint was being a little shit and Zakuro wanted to kick her ass into gear. I don’t get that Io was playing with the DC to make them realize anything- this was he was working through something that we just weren’t privy to.

Change chapter 13
Fandom: Hakuouki ~Sweet School Life~ Summary: When Yukimura Chizuru was taking an enrollment of Hakuou Academy, she discovers that it's an all-boys high school! So she pretends herself as a boy, though her secret can't kept it longer. And what's worst, a certain President of Student Council had interested in her despite she hasn't told her real identity yet. Characters: Kazama Chikage, Yukimura Chizuru Pairings: KazaChi, harem!Chizuru(Saitou/Hijikata/Souji/Heisuke/Yamazaki) Genres: Romance, school life Rated: T rated Words: 11, 415 Link: Byaichi126fic, Fanfiction.net Warnings: Grammar error, AU, OOC-ness, typos, light-yaoi, yandere-ish Souji
A/N: Hi guys I’m back~~!!!!!!! Apologized for delaying update this story. Yes, yes, I know how much you guys furious to me cuz I haven’t update any chapter for a half year. Well, I’m even more furious for losing all of my drafts in my old laptop for several times. Something happened to that laptop so I can no longer writing in my old laptop anymore OTL
Welp, anyway, here it is. A new chapter that you guys desired to read.There’s a few humor moments between Hijikata and Souji. Because they make such a great old married couple-ish. And there’s some yaoi moments as well.
Also, if you’ve already read the first chap of this story, you may notice that, there are many mistakes of grammars, typos, and OOC-ness. I do apologized for that. However, there’s a higher chance that I’m not going to fix it. Unless, I have a time for that.
The weather has gotten quite colder than for the past of several days now. The white, cold snowflakes haven't come yet. But the breeze in Kyoto is starting to cold, in which most teenager students have starting to wear a jacket to keep themselves warm.
Unexpectedly, Heisuke woke up pretty quite early today, in which is, his mother wondered what made her precious cinnamon roll son of hers went to school so early bird such as this.
Usually, she often woke him up. He must've up to something… well, of course, it's not something mischievous. So there's nothing she needed to worry about. But somehow, she's pretty quite curious what made the younger boy woke so early like this..
Or maybe…
"So what made my precious son woke up at a time like this. Usually you're having a hard time to wake up," his mother said, wiping her wet hands with pink polka dots apron that she always wore.
"Ngoking(Nothing)" Heisuke said while eating a hot toast at the same time.
Couldn't believe of his words, his mother continued to gaze on him while he's continued on gobbled up a toast and a cup of milk like a hungry Mibu wolf.
It took a moment then she finally figured out, giving a playful smirk on her face. When Heisuke noticed of a familiar smug that reminds him of so much of his prankster friend, Heisuke could felt shivered in spine as if his mother has been reincarnated into Souji by now.
"What's the matter, mom?"
"So that's how it is.."
"That's how what?" Heisuke said dumbfoundedly.
"Don't try to hide already, Heisuke. I know you're trying to impress Chizuru-chan actually."
At that, Heisuke couldn't helped but to gap like a fish. His innocent face was flushed into red as if he had saw his childhood friend in naked for the very first time.
His mother chuckled.
He is as innocent as her husband back in the old days.
Aaah… memories.
Heisuke denied himself and stuttered, "I—It's not that I l-like her or something! I mean, well, yeah, I do like her. But I actually like her as a childhood friend and all, so—"
Heisuke's mind was starting to mess.
He had no idea what is he blurting all about now. The more he blurted out nonsense, the more his secrets about his feeling toward Chizuru has been revealed.
He then gripped his brown hair as if it could help him calm down while yelling at the top of his lungs.
As his mother continuedly giggling, once the younger boy was realized she was making fun of her son, feeling frustrated, the younger boy couldn't take it anymore!
"Aargh! That's it! I have to go now!" Heisuke said, tried to leave the house as fast as he could so that his mother could stopped making fun of him.
"Heisuke, wait!"
What is it now..?
The younger boy stopped in mid-walking, waiting for his mother reached him. She gave him her usual morning kiss on his forehead, praying him to do his very best in school.
"And don't forget to confess your feeling for her once you meet Chizuru-chan."
At that, Heisuke flushed in red the part of 'confessing feelings'. Turning his face away from his mother, he dashed away out from the house.
His mother giggled once more.
He is so much like him.
Her thought wandered off as she remembered her college life with her husband.
You too again?
You guys have been together quite often since childhood now.
Yea, don't tell me you two like each other.
At that, his husband couldn't helped but to flush in embarrassing. Flailing his arms in front of him to deny himself toward his college friends.
"O-Of course not. It's not that I l-like her or something. I mean, I do like her. But I like her as a childhood friend, so—"
It feels so nostalgic just thinking about it. Brown eyes wandered above the ceiling, as if she velieved her love was watching them from the sky.
Oh… hun, I wish you could see our son…
Heisuke released a very loud exhaled from his lips, frustrated of how his mother enjoyed teasing him just because he's the only son she ever had. He neither has big sister/brother not youngest sister/brother. And so as father. From what he heard about his father, he died from cancer. Despite he had lost his father, his mother was as optimistic as ever. If the only he has a normal mom like Saitou and… Chizuru.
His face turned into a slightly grim upon of thinking childhood friend's mother. He was very lucky to have met the brunette's mother. She was so kind, beautiful, and elegant like Goddess Venus.
Being around with her makes him felt like he was floating around in Heaven already. Unfortunately, after he and his mother moved to somewhere else, her childhood friend's parent died in a car accident and the only survived were the twins.
Ever since the Yukimuras parent died, Chizuru has been taken by an adoptive father, Yukimura Kodou, whom been very busy with his career at the overseas. While Kaoru has been taken by Nagumo family in which, they're hardly spending times together like the old days.
If the only….
If the only the drunkard knew where he's going to, she could have live with her family along with Kaoru in happiness and peaceful by now.
Just thinking about Chizuru crying alone when she was in pain from loneliness brings the younger boy hurt him deeply than having an unrequited love about her.
As he realized he's been thinking pessimistic about his own childhood friend, Heisuke slapped his cheeks in multiple until it turned numb, he scolded himself not to thinking the brunette this way.
No…
He shouldn't think this way.
He shouldn't think his childhood friend like that!
He should've been grateful that Chizuru taking an enrollment in here.
"Alright! Try to be cheerful as usual!" Hesuke said, determined to be a happy-go-lucky boy.
Upon of walking to his usual routine, the younger boy recongnized a feminine back and uniform.
It's Chizuru…!
Decided to greet her as usual, Heisuke remember of Chizuru's darken face. What kind of face would she make once he greeted her.
The thought of her forced and pain smile face really broke his small heart little by little.
Shook his head slightly to leave those dark thoughts on elsewhere, turning on his heels to catch the brunette girl.
"Chizuru!" Heisuke chirped.
When the brunette recognized the voice, she turned her face and curled her lips upward upon of meeting her childhood friend in the morning.
"Ah..! Heisuke-kun, good morning." She greeted happily.
When Heisuke heard her sweet and happy tone, he noticed that his childhood friend has no longer hurt or sad adnymore. Instead, it has been exchanged into her usual happy smile like a young child.
What made her back to normal?
Has she forget of her feeling toward the President?
Whatever it is, he was so glad to see Chizuru smile. Her smile had always cheered him up and encouraged him to be a better student.
Grinning widely like an excited little boy, Heisuke crossed his arms at the back of his head as he continued to smirk like an idiot as he is now.
Chizuru blinked, confusedly. Notice that her childhood friend acted… weird. She tilted her face slightly as she tried to finds of whatever behind on that smirk. "Is something wrong, Heisuke-kun?"
"Ahh. No. it's nothing, really." He waved off his hand as if there's a fly around them. " It's been a while since I last saw your smile."
"O-Oh… so that's how it is. I'm sorry Heisuke-kun." She bowed in apologetically, while using her usual timid tone.
"No, no. it's fine. In fact, for several days, you've been like a ghost and I kept wondering whether you're already dead or something."
"Geeze.. Heisuke-kun." Chizuru whined, hitting his arm in playful.
Laughing and giggling together, they astarted to continue walking all the way to reach to school.
Upon of walking to Hakuou Academy at the street, Heisuke started to babble as usual.
"…And Hajime and Souji started to argue just because of that bastard President!"
"Was that really happened?"
Heisuke nodded. "Yea! Ever since then, Hajime-kun has been a bad terms with Souji, hanging out more with Kazama than us all."
"Was Kazama-senpai really… seduce Saitou-senpai?"
"Yes, it's true! If the only you could see what happened between them." Heisuke sighed. "I can't believed he would do that to Hajime-kun. But Souji— Souji is the worst! He—"
"What about me?"
"Right, Souji. You were kissing Chizuru's twin—" Turning around at the familiar male voiced, "S-Souji..!" Heisuke exclaimed in shocked. "S-Since when have you been here?!"
"Hmm let's see…" Souji said, putting his callous fingers on his chin. "Since you say that Kazama bastard is doing some gay stuff on Hajime-kun."
"I-I nevery said something like that!" Heisuke yelled like a dog. His face swift back ot his childhood friend, "Chziuru! I never said something like that, right?!"
N-Not really…?" Chziuru replied, not knowing what to answer at this. Her almond-brown orbs eyed on the older senpai, being kind and innocent kouhai as she is.
"Good morning, Okita-senpai."
Okita replied with his suual attractive twinkle eye on Chizuru. "Good morning, Chizuru-chan.: Cupping her chin tenderly, he gave her a chaste kiss on her cheek in which, brings her cheeks and ears flushed in red.
Heisuke gazed on them in disbelief and gapped like a fish.
"S-S-Souji!" the younger boy exclaimed. "What did you think you're doing?!"
"…Kissing her? What did you expected?" Souji replied simply.
"I-I know that!" As Heisuke was too lost in words, Souji's smirk grown to wider than ever.
"What? Don't tell me you've never get a first kiss from Chizuru-chan's cute lips before."
"O-Okita-senpai?!"" the brunette squeaked at how the older senior calls her lips cute.
"I-It's not something like that!" Heisuke yelled. "It's just—"
Okita ignored the younger boy denied himself, replying with a 'hmm' on his lips and thought deeper.
"Well, speaking of first kiss, I wouildn't mind taking Chziuru-chan's first kiss before that Kazama bastard takes it first."
Okita's smug widen darkly as he watched every reaction the brunette girl made.
The deeper scarlet her cheeks and ear were, she hid her face with her both palm of hands.
"Oi! What's with the commotions?!" a familiar male voiced yelled at the three students. Their eyes met at the onyx orbs.
"Well, well, well." Souji said with a slight of disappointing tone. "If it isn't the Oni sensei."
"What the hell are you mumbling about Souji?! Shouldn't you three of you suppose to be in school by now..?!"
"Relax, mother rooster." The raven-haired man felt an urged to twitch his left eye on annoyance upon of hearing Souji's new nickname. "It's not that we're gonna get punishment from being late. …Compare to you though.." There was a dark smug on his face as Souji started 'this' subject
At that, Hijikata had the greatest urged to explode by now. Oh yes, he remembered that day, the day he was suppose to force Souji going to school. But when he can't find his hiding place, he had heard from Harada that Souji had already gone to school already. In which, he's got himself a punishment from none other than the strict Saitou Hajime despite he's taking a responsible of the Discipline Committee.
Damn that Souji brat…
If he had known that Souji already gone to school, he wouldn't have ti waste his time by seatching him already.
That brat…!
He was totally making fun of him!
"I have to say, Hijikata-san. Never thought you'll eventually got yourself a trouble despite being a so-called-stern-and-strict teacher. You won't be an amazing teacher as Kondou-sensei."
"You little brat..!" Hijikata hissed. "You sure have no manners to the elders. Hasn't Kondou-san ever teach you how to be polite to your superior?!"
"Well, if I remember correctly, Kondou-sensei has taught me Kendo only. He never said something about being polite toward surperior especially an old man like you."
"O-Old man, you say…?!" It's because their argument has been started the two of them had forgotten of Chizuru and Heisuke presence by now. "Do you have no idea how old I am?!"
"Yes." Souji said confidently. "You're 48 years old and you'll be called a pedophile if you're dating Chizuru-chan at this rate."
The brunette girl gasped upon of finding out Hijikata's true age.
"H-Hijikata-sensei, is it true?"
"What?!" the raven-haired man exclaimed. "Of course not! I'm 23, you little brat!" The 'little brat' part wasn't meant for Chizuru of course. It was meant for Souji.
"Is that so?" Souji replied with a 'hmm' as he thought deeper and noticed something amusing. "Well look at that."
"What now?"
"You've got a strand silver hair already." Souji smirked. "This is what happened for yelling and screming all day, old man."
"S-Souji—!"
As Chizuru watched them bickered like an old married couple with non-stop, Heisuke started to whisper next to her ear.
"Psst Chizuru! Now it's our chance to go to school now."
"Wha..? but what about those two?"
"They're always bickering a lot that they even noticed the two of us. Let's go!"
"Well, um.. okay."
At that, they began to turn on their heels as the brunette girl watched their very last argument before their figures became smaller and smaller.
"Waaahhhh… it's starting to cold lately." Heisuke yawned out loud as he stretched his arms above the cold air.
"It looks like it."
"So how's thing with your dad?"
"Ah..? Well…" Chizuru began. "He's fine at the overseas. However, he won't be home."
"Even almost Christmas?" Heisuke couldn't helped but to gap like a fish.
"S-Something like that." She murmured softly, her eyes filled with sadness in loneliness the thought of her father.
Lately, she hasn't got a message from Kodou quite often now. Usually, her adoptive father often sent her a message once for 2 months now. It was as if, his career has been kept him away from sending a letter for his adoptive daughter. If the only she could confess him how she missed him so much… Then again, she didn't want to bother him knowing that being doctor often busy.
Chizuru's face soon brightened back in happiness when Heisuke suggested something that interests her.
"In that case, you can celebrate Christmas in my house!"
"R-Really….?!" The brunette said in disbelief. She couldn't figured whether she was suppose to be happy or excited or surprised. Maybe three of it..?
Heisuke nodded. "Yeah. After all, it's been a while since we last celebrate Christmas party together. So it's our opportunity to celebrate again..!"
"Ah, inviting your childhood friend to your party while you never invite us. You can be cruel, Heisuke-kun." A familiar male voiced, yet with a dangerous and threat tone spoke. His face was darkened as if he's intending to kill the younger boy here and now.
"S-Souji..?!" Heisuke exclaimed. "I-I thought you— urgh…!" Souji distracted him from speaking by gripping his small neck like an angry crab's took vice-grip on humans' curious finger.
"O-Okita-senpai, stop!" Chizuru put her hands on Souji's arm, gesturing him to stop although the older senior doesn't seem to care at all.
"All childhood friend this and childhood friend that really annoys me, you know."
Heisuke couldn't say any word as he tried to find a way to get some air. But Souji's grip was too powerful that he could felt his neck is going to snap by now.
"If you're trying to say sorry wouldn't help anything."
"O-Okita-senpai…" Chizuru murmured his name softly as she saw something behind on that emerald orbs.
Never in her entire life has she ever sees the older senpai looks frustrated and angry. What made him angry so badly…? She couldn't remember that Heisuke has ever done to him that's unforgivable before. Even if they are, Souji would often take revenge by blackmailing his embarrassed to the whole students of Hakuou Academy.
Okita-senpai…
Could it possibly be… he missed Saitou's presence next to him? Now that she mentioned it, he does often has a wide smirk on his face whenever he's with the indigo-haired man. But now's that they have a bad term, Souji's behavior has gotten weirder and aggressive now.
How can she make him feel better? Even if she begged Saitou and Souji to make-up something, there's no doubted that they would do it.
Urgh… it's her fault..
She shouldn't show that kind of side for the past of weeks ago…
"Let's see…" Souji began, as he was in a deep thought, while his grip was still around Heisuke's neck. "I'll forgive you if you invite all of us to your-so-called-Christmas-party."
"A-Aggh—Is that… i-it..?"
"Hm? Did you say something?"
Heisuke instantly shook his head.
No.
He has to say something that could satisfied Souji. At this rate, he's definitely getting killed by him whether it's crime or no.
"A-Alright, alright..! You can—go to the party as well."
"There." At that, Souji had finally ungrip his hold, giving his usual not-so-innocent smile on his smile.
Feeling weak from not enough air, Heisuke ended up on falling down on the floor, try to get some oxygen as he coughed and hacked at the same time.
"Heisuke-kun, are you alright?" Chizuru said worriedly as she kneeled down next to the younger boy's body who's still trying to catch some air.
"Y-Yeah… somehow." As Souji's eyes went on elsewhere, Heisuke felt an urged to glare on the older senior in frustrated. "What the hell is wrong with you, Souji?!" Heisuke unexpectedly exclaimed. "You could've almost killed me you know that? What? Did you have to release your anger on me just because that Kazama bastard took Hajime away?"
Souji's ears then twitched slightly like a cat upon on hearing a name of the President bastard and the indigo's name at the same sentence.
"I'm sorry. I couldn't hear very well. Could you please repeat again, Heisuke-kun?"
With that dark tone, Heisuke felt an urged to get away from Souji's appearance somehow. But it didn't last longer then, Souji's rare dark face disappeared when a familiar exploded man yelled at him.
Instead of showing a disappointed expression, Souji's face brighten in a little happiness upon of hearing the usual yell, maybe..?
"Souji..!" Hijikata raised his voice, while chasing after his prankster student. "We're not finish yet!"
"Yare, yare… he sure quite energetic in early morning like this." Souji sighed.
Grabbing Chizuru's and Heisuke's hands together, Souji along with the two students turn on their heels while getting chased by an explosive Hijikata Toshizou. The brunette couldn't helped but finds herself feeling a little déjà vu at this moment. Something's familiar is gonna happened between them. Once they're about to reach at the school gate, someone would stop them entering unless—
Before their feet have finally stepped into the Hakuou Academy, the gate instantly closed with a split second.
The person who closed the gate would be none other than—
"You're late." Saitou spoke with his usual monotone voice of his.
"Eeeeehhhh?!"
Heisuke and Chizuru exclaimed at the same time in disbelief.
Her prediction was true.
A certain member of Discipline Committee would definitely stop them.
But…
"Wh-what do you mean by late…?" Chizuru murmured confusedly.
"Yeah." Heisuke agreed from his childhood friend. "I know that we should go to school as early as possible. But coming late on 5:45?! Are you freakin crazy, Hajime?!"
"Oi, Saitou." Hijikata said as he finally arrived at the gate as well, forgetting his reasons why he had to chase Souji. "What's with all this? Having students a little late just because they're arrived on 5:45? Don't you think you're a bit—"
Before the raven-haired man complete his sentences then, Saitou cut his words off, "Hijikata-sensei, with all due respect, sir. What I'm doing now is following rules."
"Hah?!" Hijikata exclaimed. "What kind of damn rule is that?! Who the hell—"
"Rule 333, page 521, and line 4; every students and teachers should not be late in 5:15 from now on. Have you check the new rules yet, Hijikata-sensei?"
"N-New rules..?!" Hijikata gapped like a fish. "What kind of new shitty rules is fuckin that?! I've never heard a new rules before…!"
"Several new rules had already made by Kazama-kaichou. Oh, and Hijikata-sensei." Saitou took out his book to write the raven-haired man's full name. "Another new rule; Rule 333, page 521, and line 8; do not use a swear language."
"K-K-Kazama….?!" Oh that is it! He is so going to cut his guts now! That damn President..! Why the hell did he makes those kind of rules anyway?! "Move, Saitou! I need to see that bastard Kazama!"
"Unfortunately, I cannot do that." Saitou said without hesitatedly.
"And why not?!"
"See?" Souji murmured under his breathed as he along with Heisuke and Chizuru watching them as if they were watching some kind of theatre play. "I knew that Hajime-kun is protecting that damn President."
"I can't let you go unless you've already received the punishment by now."
"Saitou—"
"Or, if you refused to accept the punishment, I report this not just Kazama-kaichou. As well as Kondou-sensei and Serizawa-sensei. Is that what you want?"
Hearing the name of Serizawa gives Hijikata shivered in disgusted. To think, of all someone wanting to report to Serizawa would Saitou— That damn President bastard…! Has he already casted a dark spell on Saitou's naivety already …?!
After several moments, couldn't take it anymore of it, Hijikata finally give up, digging his long and tender fingers on his scalp in frustrated.
"Geez… alright, alright! I accept the punishment already." The raven-haired man took a glanced on the three students, then back to Saitou's. "Also, you should let those three students go as they're innocent actually."
"And how can you give a proof?"
"It was my fault that I let them going to school a little late." At that part, Chizuru couldn't helped, but to wide her eyes opened at that. What..? Why would Hijikata do that..? "If I hadn't met Souji and the others a moment ago, they must've already be in school by now."
Saitou took a glanced Chizuru and the others for quite some times, then to Hijikata. There was a nervous expression behind on his-so-cold-onyx orbs. It took a moment then the indigo had finally replied.
"…Alright. I believe you in this, Hijikata-sensei."
The raven-haired man nodded, secretly sighed out as he could at least protect the students from the President's trap. His onyx orbs eyed on the students.
"Oi, you three." Hijikata called them. "Hurry and go to class already."
"A-Ah..! Y-Yes, Hijikata-sensei!" Heisuke chirped. "Let's go, Chizuru."
"Y-Yes!" The brunette girl replied, letting her childhood friend takes her hand as they both entered the Hakuou Academy to reach to their classroom.
Souji, on the other hand, took a glanced on Saitou, while the indigo ignored of his-so-called-best-friend's stare as his eyes were focused on the raven-haired man's figure. Souji couldn't helped but felt an urged to sigh out loud. To think, Saitou wouldn't talk to him or look at him or acknowledge the emerald-green orbs man's presence since morning.
"Whaaaah… Hijikata-sensei, you're a lifesaver" Heisuke said like a sing-along tone as two students walked into the hallway to get to their classroom. Souji was no longer with them anymore.
"I have to say, Hijikata-sensei can be a very caring teacher, huh?" Chizuru commented, finding her cheeks flushed in red just thinking how amazing he was protecting the students like a shining knight in armor tried to slay a dragon to save a princess who's stuck in the castle.
"Well, duh. Hijikata-sensei has always been a kind teacher actually."
"Really?" Chizuru blinked in disbelief.
Heisuke nodded.
"He may look cold and stern teacher, but deep down, he's actually a very kind sensei. Back then, I remember how Hijikata taking care of Souji who's got himself sick for a few days ago. Since Hijikata-sensei lives alone in the apartment, he took Souji to his room so that he could takes care of him easily."
"Wow… I never expected that kind of side from Hijikata-sensei before…"
Just what the idiom says, don't judge a book by its cover. Hijikata may looked a cold-hearted teacher, the more she observed him, the more she gets to know of Hijikata's true nature.
Her thought about Hijikata soon disappeared as it changed into a man named Serizawa.
Serizawa..
What kind of person Serizawa is he..?
From what she sees how Hijikata reacting when he heard of that man's name, it look like he truly hates this Serizawa. His hatred for that man is deeper than Kazama's one.
"Umm… Heisuke-kun?"
"Yeah?"
"Just what kind of Serizawa-sensei, anyway?"
"What? You never heard of it?!" Heisuke said in a slightly of disbelief.
"W-Well, of course, I'm new in here. But I've always heard that man's name from Ibuki quite a lot so.."
When the brunette took a glanced on her childhood friend, his expression looked grim as if he was forced himself to eat something that he despised so much.
"Umm Hei—"
"Ummm!" Heisuke began. "How about we talk about this when recess coming? We can let everyone tells you everything about Serizawa-sensei and all."
"Oh, umm. Ok."
"Great!" Heisuke chirped. "Well, my classroom is that way, so you better go to yours or else Hajime-kun would definitely giving you a punishment.
"I.. I will." Chizuru gave an awkward laughed.
Nodding in happily then, Heisuke turned on his heels then waving his arm wider to Chizuru until he was no longer.
Intending to return back to her classroom, the breeze started to turn colder. Chizuru puffed her both palm of cold hands to make sure her hands keep her warm. Maybe she should have brought mitten as well..
Taking a glanced on the blue-sky, Chizuru wondered if everyone's behavior had changed because of her…
When lunch coming. At the laboratory room.
"So I've heard that you've become that Kazama bastard's slave right now."
Saitou took a glanced on Nagumo, who started an unexpected conversation. They usually didn't talk a lot of subject, even if they're, it would be relating of being an over-protective Nii-san to Chizuru.
The laboratory room was very quiet between them. There isn't a lot of members Discipline Committee for today as they're prefer eating lunch in the cafeteria or garden. Saitou usually eats at the garden as well, but he decided to skip eating lunch as he would rather not wanting to see Souji and the others.
Sooner or later, Saitou's eyes gazed back to his book.
"I'm doing what he asks for."
"What do you mean by 'he asks for'?" Nagumo narrowed his eyes at that. "You do realized we, the Discipline Committee had never have a good term on the Student Council. Even Hijikata-sensei had a very bad term with that self-important president."
"Having a good term or no, I'd just follow what the rules said."
Nagumo sighed, felt an urged to give a face-slapped on his face.
"It's hard to believe you can be such a naïve one, Saitou."
Saitou remained silent then as he remembered what happened when he was suppose to give the President a punishment.
"So what kind of punishment should I receive, Saitou-kun?" Kazama said with a purr, putting his fist on his chin, while his crimson eyes hadn't laid on elsewhere except the younger senior's ocean-blue orbs.
"Stop calling me that. You're disgusted me." Saitou said coldly.
"Oh? But if I'm not wrong, wasn't I suppose to come here for a punishment?" Kazama smug turned wider than ever.
"That's right. However, I never ask you to seduce me."
"What? I'm just calling your name only. ..Don't tell me I should call you Hajime instead. Don't you think that would make our relationship had grown deeper?" Kazama chuckled at that part.
Before Saitou tried to deny himself, Kazama's was right. If he wouldn't let him call 'Saitou', what would it be then…? Hajime would definitely not in the list as that would make everyone completely shocked how the President could able calls his first name in freely.
"…I won't punish you unless you'll tell me the truth."
"The truth?" Kazama tilted his head slightly in confused.
"What made you seduce me all of a sudden? Shouldn't you suppose to be around with Yukimura-kun?"
He wanted so much to ask him what did the President do to make the Yukimura girl's behavior change all of a sudden. Does this man is the fault that brings the brunette changed?
"My wife is acting strange." Kazama answered simply. His usual smug suddenly disappeared and became quite serious like the-so-called-Oni-President.
Saitou blinked at that.
"You didn't know?"
"Know of what?"
"You didn't know..? Yukimura-kun's behavior had change because of you?"
"Me?" Kazama said in perplexed.
Saitou gazed on the President longer than usually. Sooner or later then, he gave a soft sigh.
Ahh… just as he thought.
Kazama is guilty.
"As I thought. You're not the reason that the Yukimura-kun changed completely." Saitou mumbled.
"What do you mean?"
Saitou had no reason to keep this to the President, in which, he answered the blonde-haired man's question.
"I believed, everyone took a blame on you for Yukimura-kun's behavior."
"Are they?" Kazama smirked in amusingly. Well, what can he say? They were all jealous just because the President had caught the brunette's heart before them.
"And what about you?" Kazama began, in which, brings Saitou's eyes laid into the crimson ones. "Do you blame me as well for my wife's strange behavior?"
There was a long quiet moment between them and it took a moment then Saitou has finally answer.
"I don't see a point to blame you." Saitou started. "Rules 221, page 325, and line 4; never blame on someone unless there's a proof."
"Is that so? I was expecting you'll side on your friends."
"As a member of Discipline Committee, rules are important to me. It could maintain the school whether I have to betray my friends or not. …Even Souji.
"You're pretty quite strict on rules huh? ..Even stricter than Hijikata." Kazama chuckled deeply. "How about this?" The President began as he waited the indigo-haired man gazed on him. "How about I make more rules. To make sure the school is in so-called-balance"
Saitou blinked at that, but follow of whatever the President planned for.
Whether he betrayed his own friends especially Souji just for the sake of the rules, as long as Hakuou Academy is maintain to be a perfect school, Saitou willing do everything to follow whatever kinds of rule, included made by the President.
"You're not going to eat with my sister and the others?" Kaoru's words bring Saitou back to reality. "I've heard from the other classmates that Okita won't eat with them today."
"…No. There are many things I have to do than eating lunch with them." Saitou said, started doing his job as a member of the Disicipline Committee.
And so, Nagumo nodded in agreement as well, returned back to work together with him.
"Chizuru! Over here!" Heisuke called his childhood friend as he waved his arm wider so that the brunette could found him.
The young brunette waved to her childhood friend back and went toward to the others to sit next to Heisuke. The only take a recess on the rooftop is only Heisuke and Yamazaki. Souji and Saitou was nowhere to be found.
"Good day, Yukimura-kun. It look like you're fine now."
"Good day to you to Yamazaki-senpai. Yes, I'm fine. Thank you for your concern."
"It was my pleasure." Yazamaki smiled innocently. "If you ever feel sick or unwell, do visit in the infirmary if you would like. …That is, when Sannan-sensei isn't around in the infirmary."
"R-Right…" Chizuru couldn't helped but to give an awkward laughed at that as she remembered just how much creepy the school nurse is.
"So how's the class?" Heisuke said as they started their usual conversation, Chizuru finally decided to talk about Serizawa.
"I think it's fine…" Chizuru replied. "Ryuunosuke-kun had been fainting for quite a lot for today. According from Harada-sensei, he's been lacking from eating a lot now… I'm actually worried him…"
Heisuke and Yamazaki gave a pathetic sighed about Ibuki, in which, giving Chizuru looked at them in dumbfounded, as if she missed something about Ibuki.
"Well… Ibuki was adopted by the founder of Hakuou Academy, Serizawa Kamo. Despite being a rich family, Serizawa is too selfish to give money for Ibuki…" Yamazaki finally replied.
"The founder of Hakuou Academy? I thought Kondou-sensei is the founder of Hakuou Academy" Chizuru blinked.
"Well… it's more like the two of them make the Hakuou Academy together." Heisuke murmured softly. "Serizawa-sensei had retired since it's been decided to make this school for boys only before you enroll the school. Despite he had retired though, Serizawa-sensei still comes here rarely to make sure the school was perfect as ever."
"Perfect?"
Heisuke nodded then.
"Serizawa-sensei is… you could say he's a bit strict when it comes on Hakuou Academy. He likes to make sure the students follow the rules whether they like it or not… And it was Kazama's job to make sure the school was perfect." Heisuke spoke, eyes looked elsewhere beside his childhood friend then.
"That's horrible.."
"In truth, Yukimura, despite it has been decided that this school should be both for boys and girls from now on, Kondou-sensei still hasn't told Serizawa-sensei about you nor making the school to turn out to be for both gender yet."
Chizuru jumped at that, her face turned into horror then.
"It's difficult to say whether Serizawa-sensei is going to like it or not.. but I sure hope he understands Kondou-sensei's thought, however.."
At that, Chizuru nodded in understanding then, eyes looked down on her bento as the atmosphere looked very gloom upon of hearing a founder Hakuou Academy for the very first time.
"Ne, Hijikata-sensei~" Souji whined and pouted in Hijikata's office room.
"What is it that you want Souji?" Hijikata groaned in frustrated upon of meeting his student in recess. Of all the time he intended to make him explode, why now…?!
"I'm bored~"
"Go elsewhere." The raven-haired man said coldly.
"Uwaah~ you're so cruel, Hijikata-san. You've already broke my heart now."
"So what if if I had broke your heart? Get out from here and eat somewhere else."
"I can't do that."
"And why. The. Fuck. Not?" Hijikata said every word in angrily, couldn't stand on this prankster boy already.
Souji replied with a laughed.
"Well, obviously Hajime-kun and I officially broke up now. So I have no one to date with except you, Hijikata-san."
"Hah? What nonsense are you talking about? Since when you two are dating?!" Hijikata questioned in disgustedly.
"Isn't it obvious?" Souji stated. "We've always eating together, walking together, killing some times together. It's obviously that we're actually dating."
"And does Saitou approve that?"
"Hmm… who knows~" Souji grinned wider at that in which, brings Hijikata felt an urged to twitch his eye at that.
"Honestly Souji.." Hijikata dug his fingers on his strands of hair. Taking a glanced on the clock. The recess is about to end already. He hadn't seen Souji eating something by now. Even if the raven-haired man went to the cafeteria, he doubted that he had enough time to buy something for the prankster boy…
"Geez… really, Souji." Hijikata sighed out loud.
When Souji sees the raven-haired teacher was searching something inside his briefcase, Hijikata threw a packet of red bun on the table.
Souji gazed on the bun in dumbfoundedly then to Hijikata.
"Um… Hijikata-sensei..? What should I do with that?"
"What do you mean what? Of course to eat that." The grumpy teacher sighed.
"Why?"
More questions?!
Once again, Hijikata gave one of the most frustrating sigh on his lips before speaking out of character.
"I've heard from Kondou-san that you haven't eat a lot since you've been a bad terms with Saitou."
At that, Souji feels an urged to wide his eyes in perplexed. Well, that's new. He knew that Hijikata can be a caring teacher. But at a place like this? Doesn't his reputation of being the grumpy and hot-tempered teacher would destroy by now?
Why would he cared for him at a time like this…?
"So…" Hijikata released a soft sigh this time, and Souji could've sworn there was a sakura-colored flushed on his cheeks already. "..even if you can't eat with Saitou and the others for today… you can always eat here whenever you.. like."
"Hijikata-sensei…"
There's so many things Souji had wanted to tell the raven-haired man.
But most of all…
"..Your cheesy words really disgusted me. It's good thing I haven't take a bite of bun yet. If I had though, I would've spit them all to your face by now."
There was a silent moment in Hijikata's office room, except probably Souji's usual sadistic laughed on the room.
After for a moment then, Hijikata had finally exploded once again.
"Get the fuck out from my office!"
At that, Hijikata has finally kicked Souji's ass out of his room.
As recess has finally over, the two childhood friends decided to walk together all the way to their classroom. Yamazaki couldn't able to join along with them however since he has to visit in the infirmary room to treat a few students' injuries.
There was a very awkward quiet between them. Either of them starting any conversation. It's rare to see the childhood friends feeling a little awkward. …Probably Chizuru's still bothered of what they told her about Serizawa.
The younger boy felt so bad keeping about that man from her all this time.
Couldn't stand of this awkward silent moment anymore, Heisuke finally break the quiet moment between them:
"Does that bother you, Chizuru?"
"What is?"
"About Serizawa-sensei, of course. We forgot to tell you about that guy actually. We don't mean to keep it." Heisuke said, feels a little regretful for not telling his childhood about that guy when they've been study in this school for quite longer now.
"Oh, no… that's alright, Heisuke-kun. You've still managed to tell me about him before I meet him.. in the future then." Chizuru replied with an awkward laughed then.
Heisuke's sad expression soon brightened up into a very wide grin then. He crossed his arms behind his head in happily.
"Well then, should we go home together after school? There are a lot of things I would like to show you. I've heard from Shinpachi-sensei that there's a very interesting arcade game somewhere."
"I.. I guess that's fine."
Heisuke replied with another wide grin once more.
"It's decided! I'll be waiting for you at the gate then."
Chizuru replied with a nod as Heisuke then ran on the hallway as fast as he could, very excite and happy to go out with Chizuru somewhere place interesting.
Continuing on returning back to her classroom, she soon stops walking in mid-way upon of hearing a familiar deep-voice.
"Oh, so this is where you've been all this time."
Hesitatedly turned around, Chizuru finds herself feeling nervous looking at those gorgeous crimson orbs of Kazama's. Of all the places they met, why here..?
"K-Kazama-senpai..?"
"It's been a while, my wife. Have you been bored without me?"
Moving closer to the brunette girl, Chizuru continuedly moving backward until she could felt her back was meeting a wall. Once she was nowhere to run, Kazama entrapped her by pinning the brunette on the wall, there was an amusing smirk on his face.
"I guess this is just between you and me." Moving his face closer to her ear that could brings her shivered down on spine already. He purred seductively, "..Alone."
As she finds her body trembled, the brunette began to close her eyes and bit her lower lip tightly, praying to Kami to save her already. Luckily luck is with her this time.
Not long after that, Amagiri and Shiranui started to grab the President's arms to pull him away from the Yukimura girl as they sent him back to their office, ignored the yelled or protested that the President made a moments ago.
Once the President has finally out of her sight, Chizuru finds herself sighed in relief, feeling herself kneeled down on the floor. To think, even getting closer to the President would make her heart beating in swiftly as if it was about to explode inside her body already.
She was also glad that the so-called-Kazama's-followers came to take him away at the right time.
If they hadn't come, what might had happened between them anyway…?
Shaking her head away to leave those thoughts out from her head, Chizuru continuedly turned on her heels to return back to the classroom.
After Amagiri and Shiranui put the President down on the fancy chair, Kazama starting to frustrate.
"What is the meaning of this, Amagiri, Shiranui?!"
"This is for the best for Yukimura-dono's safety, Kazama-sama." Amagiri replied. "You cannot see her unless you'll figure what's wrong with her."
"Figure out..? What happened to her?"
At that words, Shiranui finally snapped. He narrowed his eyes deeply. "What do you mean by that?!" Shiranui unexpectedly exclaimed. "Don't tell me you hadn't figured out what happened to the princess?! You do realize—"
Before Shiranui could blabbered more, Amagiri stopped him by putting his hand on his friend's shoulder.
"I suggest Kazama-sama finds the answer by his own. Let it be."
Shiranui didn't replied after then except some cursed of groan and leaves the Student Council office.
"Kazama-sama," Amagiri began. " Whatever happened, I will protect Yukimura-dono from you. Don't expect me I let you see her unless she gives a permission."
"Amagiri," Kazama muttered in threateningly. "Just who do you think you're talking to?"
"Kazama Chikage, one of the richest family in Kyoto, also known to be a tea ceremony schools. However, just because you have a higher title than I am nor Yukimura-dono, I'm still cannot let you see her no matter what the circumstance it is."
"Ho… you've a good word to say for a commoner."
At that, Amagiri didn't spoke anything. He didn't finds himself feeling offended when the President called him 'commoner' rather than lower title of rich family and all.
"Then tell me how should I find approach my wife if you kept being an over-protective mode."
There was a paused between them as if the red-headed was in a deep thought for a moment. A few seconds or so, he finally replied:
"Before weekend coming, I will let you see her after school. Do not waste that day by forcing Yukimura-dono to ask a date or something that against her will."
With that, the red-headed bowed in respectfully before taking a leave in the office.
Kazama finds himself sighed in frustrated as silent moment appeared in his room.
Ah really… just what did he do to make his wife avoiding him latelty?
If he remembered correctly, he hadn't threatened her anything that would make her frightened of him… right?
Argh.. this is so frustrating.
When school finally over, Chizuru left the classroom quite early this time. Harada noticed the brunette girl could able to smile once again, in which he was glad to see his student looks fine and happy once again. He finds himself feeling calm down and no longer worried of whatever the President scheming on something.
Once Chizuru has arrived at the school gate, she began to wait her childhood friend searching for her. While standing next to the gate, Chizuru often being Chizuru, in which, being a very polite girl as she is, the brunette bowed each student whenever they say goodbye to her. There are a few student boys often greeted her in timid way, and there are a few of them greeted her in a normal way like Ibuki.
"Chizuru!"
A familiar, cheerful younger boy called her as he walked toward to the gate.
"I've-I've heard you've almost got a sexual harassment from Kazama! Is that true?!"
"Uh… well," Chizuru murmured quietly. Sexual harassment is a bit too much to call it but.. where's those weird rumors coming from? It couldn't be from Souji knowing that he often spread some nonsense fake news to everyone especially about Hijikata's being a gay. "N-Not really.. But Amagiri and Shiranui had a time to send him back to his office."
At that, Heisuke gave a very relief sigh on his lips. "That's good.." he murmured softly, his face was filled with guilty like a poor puppy who needs to have a shelter. "I-I'm sorry for leaving you like that, Chizuru. I promise that I won't leave you anymore, alright?"
"No, no. It's alright, Heisuke-kun." Chizuru said with an awkward laughed.
With that, there was a wide grin on his face, as he grabbed her hand to hold her like he usually do.
"So then, let's go to the arcade!"
"Mmm!"
Starting to leave the school together while continued on holding hands, a few students of Hakuou Academy wondered do they by any chance dating…?
Even though there's a higher chance that Chizuru has a secret thing for the President, but it look like the relationship between Heisuke and the brunette seemed quite to be an officially couple by now.
"So you're not going to go home yet, huh?"
Saitou stared on the President in blankly who opened the window outside of the Music room. Although today is not a day to practice a music instrument, but whenever Saitou wants to be alone, he often played violin in the Music room alone. He enjoyed the quiet atmosphere in the Music room. It just felt like he was living such a different world.
"I would like to make sure not to let my violin skills hadn't rusted yet." The indigo replied putting his violin in his violin case the moment the intruder's coming.
"Your technique won't be rusting." Kazama jumped into the window of the Music room and grabbing Saitou's violin with one hand in which, brings the other man being cautious toward the President. "It must've taken some years to capable of playing violin huh?"
"If you concentrate yourself on the violin, you will be able to play it without any trouble." Saitou said, took his violin away from the President's hand in which, he replied with a deep chuckled.
After Saitou had zip his violin case, he could felt someone hold his hand in tenderly. The next thing Saitou knew, the gorgeous, pale hand was belonging to the President's.
The Oni President took a gazed on Saitou's palm hand as if he was examining something. For a moment then, Kazama caressed his long finger on Saitou's palm of hand, noticing just how callous Saitou's skin was. He was expecting the indigo's hand was suppose to be soft and fragile.
"Your hand quite rough I have to say." Kazama murmured, as he continuedly caressing Saitou's hand in tenderly and gently one. "You must have playing the violin everyday."
"Three times a week." Saitou replied simply.
"Ho…?"
"While there are times I'm training with Heisuke and the other in the dojo."
"And by meaning 'other' you must've meant by Okita Souji, huh?"
With that, Saitou remained silent, didn't spoke anything. Pulling his hand away from the President's hold, Saitou decided to take a leave from the Music room.
Upon of arriving at the sliding door, Saitou stopped in mid-walking, turning his head to the President as if there's something he's been wonder for now.
"Kazama, do you… like music?"
The President couldn't helped but to gap like a fish at that. He wasn't expected to hear those words from the stoic's lips. He is one curious guy he has to say.
Giving his usual wide smirk, Kazama replied with confidently.
"Yes."
"What kind of musical instrument do you prefer to play?"
"A piano." Kazama answered simply.
Upon of hearing this, Saitou's eyes wandered to his palm of hand where the President caressed on him elegantly one. He has to admit it, Kazama does has a very beautiful long fingers. He wondered if his fingers born that way because of playing the piano.
Before taking a leave, unlikely, Saitou bids him farewell and started to leave the Music room.
Ever since having a bad term with Souji, Saitou somehow… starting to get along with the President unexpectedly. It's strange how they're both joined a rivalry club-ish, and yet, there are times those two men have a same common such as musics and strict rules.
At the arcade.
"Yes! I've got it!" Heisuke chirped happily.
"You did it, Heisuke-kun." Chizuru said as she clapped her hands for her childhood friend.
Upon of entering the arcade, the younger boy found a very interesting plushie on the gift list, decided to win the shooter game for his childhood friend, Heisuke received a perfect gift for the younger brunette.
"Here you go." The shopkeeper said, giving a very big yet fluffly dog plushie to the younger boy.
Heisuke replied with a grin.
"Thanks!"
Once the couple left from the shooter game, Heisuke moved closer the plushie that he recently received to his childhood friend, in which, giving Chizuru tilted her head in confused.
"Here. You can have it."
"Eh…?"
Chizuru blinked in dumbfoundedly.
"A-are you sure? I mean, you did win in the shooter game so you should've keep it, Heisuke-kun."
"No, no, it's fine at all." Heisuke said. "After all, having a companion with you in arcade is enough for me. So the least I can do is giving you this. You've always wanted a big and fluffly dog plushie right?"
"Th-that was before you move to a new house…" Chizuru mumbled in embarrassing upon of remembering those memories. When the brunette noticed her childhood friend was about to show his sadness and heartbroke expression on his face, the brunette quickly took the plushie. "A-Alright, alright. In fact, I'd still want to find something to cuddle at night.." She lied at the last part.
When Chizuru has finally took the plushie on his hold, Heisuke began to grin once more, feeling himself happy to give something for his childhood friend.
"Now then, let's go to other games."
Chizuru nodded in reply, as she ended herself embracing the plushie so tightly in happily one while following her childhood friend to wherever he goes.
When night's coming, it's almost about time for the couple return back to home.
"Whoah.. it's already dark." Heisuke said in amazing. "Well, I guess staying in the arcade was really bad idea, huh?" Heisuke gave an awkward laughed, bringing Chizuru joined to giggle as well. "Since it's my fault for staying there very late, I'll escort you to your home."
"Thank you, Heisuke-kun."
The younger boy nodded then, started to walk together very quietly all the way to her house. There was a quiet atmosphere between them then. They never walked together while remaining silent before. Usually, Heisuke would often started a conversation and blabbered something stupid. But this time, the younger boy has starting to be a little obedient now.
She wondered what made him acted this way..
Could it be because of her strange behavior…?
The thought of it brings her felt really guilty.
She has to break this silent.
But what…?
It took a moment then, Heisuke's finally started a conversation.
"So," the younger boy began. "It's almost Christmas huh?"
Chizuru nodded. "It looks like it."
"Are you feeling excited about this?"
"Well.. I haven't got any message for my father. So I'm worried that I can't celebrate your Christmas party with him…"
"Oh, right…"
Dang, he completely forgot!
Her adoptive father is still in the overseas. Not even a single message Kodou has ever talked when would he return back to Japan. He could understand how much important his job is, but the least he can do is he should at least visit and see his daughter every once in a while…
"B-But you know what, we should forget to make a Christmas party in my house."
"What? Why?" Chizuru exclaimed in shock.
"Wouldn't it be better if we celebrate a Christmas party in school?"
"Eh? Is there such a thing…?"
Heisuke nodded.
"Yeah. Once a Christmas day, the Hakuou Academy would always celebrate a Christmas party at there. Beside the banquet is the best, Kondou-sensei is also becoming a Santa when the party starts!"
"K-Kondou-sensei becomes a Santa?!" Chizuru gapped like a fish. She never expected to see the Principal becoming a Santa before. He must've look good in the Christmas costume then..
"Yup. This is one of Souji's favourite event as he adored Kondou-sensei becoming a Santa. He was like a kid, who would accept any kinds of present as long as he get to see Kondou-sensei as a Santa."
"W.. wow…"
She could understand that Okita took a highly admired for Kondou. But even in Christmas party..? Well, there are times the older senior does has a cute and adorable side. Something like Hijikata's.
A few days later, it was the usual same school day of Chizuru's life.
Until…
When recess coming as usual, the brunette noticed that there's a group of male students in front of the school gate.
What's going on..?
"Umm, Ryuunosuke-kun, what's going on?" Chizuru asked her trustworthy classmate as he is one of a friend that they're very closed.
"Oh, that. Well, I think he finally returned from overseas."
"He?"
Chizuru blinked.
When the brunette tried to peek on whatever going on of the ruckus, she finally met a very strange male figure with such a… strange sense of fashion. Each footstep he made was like a catwalk on the paparazzi stage.
"Well hello there, everyone. It's been a while."
"Itou, what brings you here? I never expected you've come"
A familiar male voiced with the usual cold and stern tone spoke.
"Ah, Hijikata-san. It's been a while. You're very rude as usual. Well, it's nothing to be particular most of it." The man named Itou said with a creepy grin. "I've recently quit my job a week ago just to work in here once again. After all, this is where I lived."
Hijikata narrowed at that.
"You do realized no one understand your sense of fashion."
"That's true." Itou murmured. "Which is why I worked in France for the past of several months just to learn more of fashion sense right there. After all, this school really does needs of work with beauty."
Hijikata began to groan something that Itou couldn't understand very well in which, the raven-haired man has finally given up.
"Do it what you like. You better try not to ashamed the Hakuou Academy." Hijikata said with a growl at the last part.
Itou replied with a grin behind his fan.
"Don't worry. I'm sure you won't be regretful for this."
As Itou walked in a catwalk, his eyes laid into an unfamiliar female student.
"Ah.. and who's this?"
Chizuru bowed in a polite one.
"Um.. My name's Yukimura Chizuru. I'm a new student and the only girl in here as well"
"What…?!" Itou exclaimed. His face moved swiftly to the raven-haired man. "H-Hijikata-san! What's the meaning of this? Isn't this school is suppose to be an all-boys only. How come there's a girl here?!"
"Calm the fuckin down, Itou. A lot of things happened while you were in overseas."
"That is the cheapest excuse I ever heard!" Itou raised his voice. "Let me ask you once more—"
As the bicker between Itou and Hijikata began, Ibuki began.
"I think it's about time for us to leave this to Hijikata-sensei. After all, the recess is about to end a moment later."
"Y-You're right…" Chizuru murmured. "But.. who is he anyway?"
"Hm? Well, I don't know quite well about him. But he seems to be some kind of the Head of Fashion/Handicraft club before you've enroll here. After finding out his sense of fashion was terrible, Itou-sensei decided to quit a job here, decided to go overseas to learn more of fashion stuff over there."
"Ah.. so that's how it is."
Even so, in her opinion, his sense of fashion is still terrible as ever…
"Argh…! I can't take it anymore!"
Heisuke released a frustrated sigh on his lips as the two students(Chizuru and Yamazaki) ate their bento box.
"Is something wrong, Heisuke-kun?"
"Of course it is!" The younger boy moaned. "It's about Hajime-kun and Souji!"
"They still hadn't getting along well, huh?" Yamazaki murmured.
Heisuke nodded.
He can't stand it anymore! Just seeing the two men avoiding each other brings the world turned upside-down now! Isn't there a way to see them getting along like it used to be?
"If that's the case," Yamazaki began. "How about we let them staying in a locking room until they finally forgiving each other?"
At that, Chizuru and Heisuke started to gaze him as if he has five arms.
"That's a brilliant idea!" Heisuke chirped.
"W-wait.. that was a half-joking…"
"While the others are half-not, right?" Heisuke grinned.
"The problem is, Kazama's still clinging onto Saitou, while Souji clinging onto Hijikata-sensei." Yamazaki mumbled.
The younger boy's grin then disappeared and showed a very disappointing expression on his face.
"I'm sure there's a way to get them together."
Both male students started to sigh in disappointing one.
Chizuru couldn't helped but only watching her two friends find a way to see Souji and Saitou together, the inseparable partner.
To get Saitou and Okita together back, huh…?
School's finally over.
The droplets of rain started to fall on the Hakuou Academy.
"I didn't know rain's coming." Chizuru mumbled softly as she watched the rain continuedly fall.
Despite winter's about to come, and yet, instead of snow's coming, the rain eventually comes. The breeze around the Hakuou Academy has gotten colder as well, in which, brings the Yukimura girl felt an urged to rub her palm of hands so that she could warm her hands.
Upon of intending to wait the rain stop, an unexpected umbrella appeared above her head out of nowhere.
Meeting whoever held the umbrella, Chizuru couldn't helped but to wide her opened to see him.
"K-Kazama-senpai…"
The President didn't spoke anything, neither there's his usual playful smirk on his face. It was as if, something bothered him greatly and yet, he couldn't figured out what.
"Let's go."
"Eh.. a-ah… Th-that's alright." Chizuru protested. "I can't wait here a little longer. Just leave without me."
There was a very quiet moment between them. Kazama's crimson orbs hadn't wandered on elsewhere except the brunette's almond brown-orbs. As if he was desperately tried to search of whatever she's hiding from him.
"According from the weather forecast, it won't stop until tomorrow morning. Don't tell me you want to wait here until tomorrow..?"
"Ah…"
At that, Chizuru finds herself lost in words.
Even if the weather forecast is true, she didn't want to walk back home with Kazama of all the people.
Even so…
"Stop being hesitated and let's go."
"A-ah.. wait!"
Kazama ignored her protested as she eventually gives up and walked next to the President, but…
While walking all the way to her house, not just there was a very awkward silent between them. Chizuru's also tried to distant herself away from him until she could felt a droplet of rain started to fall on her hair.
"Oi, come closer here. You'll get yourself wet at this rate."
"B-But I.." she started to mumble quietly.
"You should at least stop being stubborn or else you'll catch a cold then."
At that, Chizuru replied in groan as she finally moved closer with him in a bit hesitantly.
It wasn't last long after then that they're finally arrived in front of the gate to her house.
"Well, I guess we should stop here for now." Chizuru said awkwardly while looking on elsewhere beside that gorgeous ruby orbs of Kazama's. "You should go on, Kazama-senpai. I can use my bag to cover from the rain."
…Wait, why hadn't she thought of herself going back home with her bag when she was in school?!
There was a very long quiet moment between them. The President narrowed his eyes deeply while continuedly gazing on her eyes as if this is the only way to find an answer of whatever reason that the brunette avoiding him.
"..Tell me why are you avoiding me?"
"Eh?" Chizuru blinked.
"Lately, you've starting to avoid me more and more. What happened?"
"I-I—"
"I've heard from Amagiri that you're avoiding because of me. What did I do to make you feel uncomfortable?"
"N-Nothing's to worry about.."
"Oh..?" At that, Kazama glared at her threateningly. The brunette couldn't helped but find her heart stopped beating as if those glare had pierced deep into her chest like a sharp knife. "Then why are you no longer comes in my office? Why you've been spending with your other friends than me? Did somebody threatening to you not to come my office anymore? Who is it? I will not hesitated giving them a punishment."
"It-It's not like that…"
"If it's 'not', don't you think it's about time for you to at least come to my office? Relying on me more than them? Spending times with me more than them? What made you acting this way—"
"I have my own reason to avoiding you!"
At those words, Chizuru finds herself moved her hands on her lips. But she couldn't take back those words. No… if she told him everything, would he finally lets her go then..?
"I can't… I can't spend together with you anymore, Kazama-senpai. I just can't.." She lowered her head down to the ground. "It's.. it's too much for me… Every time I'm spending times with you, I've always admired everything's about you. The way how generous of you.. the way how kind you can be toward me. But I—I know that I can't fall in love with you. You.." The next thing she knew, warm tears starting to form on her eyes. "You have Sen. I can't do that to her..!"
At that, Kazama couldn't helped but to wide opened at that part. Was.. was that it? She's been worried of her feeling just because she thought he had a feeling for Sen…?! Damn, he should've known it by earlier. How he hadn't noticed that..?
"Wait.. you—you actually thought I have a feeling for Sen…?!" Kazama asked in perplexed.
The brunette answered then continuedly with a soft sniff despite there was a smile on her face.
"It-It's stupid right? For having a feeling to someone else even though that person already loves another person." She started to blabber stupidly like Heisuke.
"Hold on, Sen and I do known each other. But that doesn't mean that we're both…"
"Please stop.." Chizuru stopped him in mid-sentence. "Please don't feel pity for my one-sided feeling. I know that you like me because of my family's name. But please, you have to love someone who's been childhood since then."
"Like I told you, I don't like Sen. We're just only—"
"I'm okay this way. After all, I've lost my parent since I was very young. Losing a love isn't that hurt. In fact, I can always find another—"
And that was the last straw, Kazama's glare starting to turn cold like an iceberg, and gritted his teeth tighter than ever. Couldn't take it anymore, he has to stop this blabber once and for all.
"Shut up!"
With that, Kazama grabbed the brunette's both small cheeks with his large hands while smashing his lips onto hers.
Once she finally realized what the President doing, she tried so much to struggle but to no avail. The President's hold was stronger than she thought.
She wondered, what might happened if she hadn't revealed the truth about whatever reason she felt for the President?
Will she ever get tasted Kazama's soft lips..?
…No. She didn't think she eventually would.
Somehow, she couldn't tell whether she was suppose to be grateful to get kissed by the President or feeling terrible for betraying her own best friend for stealing the man Sen was suppose to be loved…
