Coffee Shop (Obey Me!)
━━━━━━━━━━ ✦ ━━━━━━━━━━
You start a new job at a coffee shop in a popular plaza. You can't help but look forward to a certain regular. ♡
»Characters: Demon Bros + Dia + Barb
»Tags: Fluff, Bulleted Style, GN Reader, LeviLeviLevi-
»Notes: lol when was the last time I made a bulleted fic that wasn't a shitpost???🤯 Just simple short fluff lol, reblogs are appreciated + motivating ♡
Tumblr media
Lucifer:
Always orders a cafe con leche every morning
Keeps interactions short but you learned his name
Always so serious but he does look like a business man
A very very handsome business man cough
After working there for a little bit he admits he likes the way you make his drink & hates when you guys miss each other on days off
One day he comes in normal clothes & you got caught off guard when he made it to the register
"It's my day off but I was craving my usual. I'm glad to see you're here."
Pleaseee you gotta be blushing right now alalfkfldk
You notice the record store bag he's holding & start a fun conversation while its slow
It does get busier & unfortunately have to cut the conversation to both your disappointments
"We can continue this later...maybe over dinner if you're available?"
Tumblr media
Mammon:
Usually gets an icy blended drink, the flavor changes frequently
You see him every other day, it looks like he works at a retail store in the plaza
You thought he was cute & funny despite how loud he could be
One day he defends you against a really rude customer
You say your thank yous & give him his drink for free that day
"Yeah I guess I am a hero. Heroes get free drinks all the time though, ya?"
You couldn't help but laugh & accidentally let slip "you're really cute!"
He starts choking on his drink, stuttering & blushing
He goes silent for a moment before asking, "whaddaya say to a date one of these days?"
Tumblr media
Levi:
Usually orders sweet drinks & likes trying seasonal/limited time things
You've seen him at his job at the anime store in the plaza, since you visit there sometimes
You two are on friendly terms even though he can be awkward
You think he's very cute though, especially when he talks about his passions
You felt like you two were dancing around eachother so you decide to make a move
You drew a Gundam robot on his drink & wrote 'Gun-DAM you're cute!'
You nervously handed the drink & he took it without noticing the drawing on it
You watched as he left the shop,took another sip, then stop as he looked at his drink
You could see he was happily freaking out but then abruptly stop
He looked back to the shop & you waved a shy hello
He ran back inside to make sure, "S-sorry is this a mistake? W-was this for someone else??"
"Look on the bottom"
He raised the cup & looked under
Levi, AkuCon this weekend?
Tumblr media
Satan:
Usually orders a simple cappuccino but will add a flavored syrup occasionally
Comes in often on his breaks
You've seen him working at the bookstore in the plaza
He looks like a simple guy yet very charming
You always notice a book on him & one day you decide to ask what he's reading
You learn you read the same things & start having fun conversations every time he stops by
Eventually he asks you if you'd be able to give your thoughts on his writing
"Sure, I'd be happy to read it if you bring it!"
He gave you a flirty smile
"Actually I was thinking maybe we could hang out...like somewhere that's not here?"
Tumblr media
Asmo:
Always orders an iced vanilla oat milk latte
You see him every few days, really friendly customer that loves to chat & you become friends quick even though you want more
You find out he works at a nearby agency & is an up & coming model
You felt a little intimidated, he could be really famous one day!
Nevertheless you treat him just the same even as those around him changed, he lets you know how grateful he is
One day he comes in upset & tells you the agency is moving across town to a bigger location so he won't be able to see you there anymore
At the same time both of you blurt out
"I still wanna see you!"
Tumblr media
Beel:
You never know with this guy
He works in the sports store across from the cafe
He's always indecisive with the menu & one day just tells you to make whatever
You're his fave barista, he thinks you make the best drinks either way
Doesn't realize he just likes everything & has a crush on you
You can't help but get excited when he looks excited to see you golden retriever energy
You find out he's a foodie type & you guys talk about the local spots around town
"Would you like to check out the new sandwich store that opened a few doors down? Uh...like, maybe a date?"
Tumblr media
Belphie:
Usually orders a hot regular latte but occasionally orders hot chocolate
He appears to be a student as he comes in often to study & always looks tired
One day on your break you decide to chat him up & offer help on the subject he was struggling with
He thought you were cute & was thankful for your help
After a few weeks of tutoring (+some heavy flirting), he passed his exam flawlessly
"Actually can you help me with one other thing?"
"Yeah, what?"
"Would you like to go on a date sometime?"
Tumblr media
Diavolo:
Has a new favorite every week but really likes lattes/teas
You can tell he's important with his assistant present
You wonder why the assistant doesnt just get his order though
Anyway hes hot really friendly & chatty & can tell a few good jokes, you appreciate them!
He always seems reluctant to leave the shop which makes your heart flip
Always leaves a big tip! ... I want him to give me a big tip 😔
The two of you find out you have a lot more in common than you thought
One day he admits that these coffee runs are the things he looks forward to the most since his day is usually very busy & doesn't get much else normalcy
He lets slip that it's mainly seeing you that adds to his joy so he goes all in
"If you're interested, care to join me for dinner this weekend?"
Tumblr media
Barbatos:
Always large orders of a few different drinks (part of his job)
Though you notice he always orders tea for himself & likes to buy different tea blends
He's a very (cute) polite customer, one of the few
You two usually chat as you make his large order & you can't help but fall for him
Knowing he loves to buy limited release tea blends, you usually save him one before the cafe sells out
You never tell anyone about it but:
"I appreciate you always saving me one."
"Oh? How did you know!?"
"I have a friend who stopped by earlier & said it was one of those times they missed out. Yet, there always appears to be one for me even after sell-out. Thank you kindly."
You blush at being found out, "seems I've been caught!"
He chuckles & gives you another shock:
"I've been meaning to ask...will you allow me to take you out one of these days?"

Y'all I think invented a new way of kissing without putting your face near your loved one's face- well, it's basically indirect kissing but idk what else to call it-: pressing your thumb on your lips to place a kiss and pressing that kissed thumb onto your loved one's lips/cheek.
i came up with this idea when I was reading some Obey Me! stuff and started daydreaming- I was basically in a scenario where I was tired and I wanted to get something from high up a tree but couldn't because I was out of reach, so I asked Diavolo to assist me by using his hands to launch me up (basically he raises his cupped hands up as I step foot on them and jump in the right time as he boosts me up in the tree) and I grabbed the branch of the tree then I straddled the tree branch as I tossed the object to Diavolo, but I accidentally fell off and thankfully- Barbatos, who was in his demon form for some reason, was there to catch me. as i thanked him and jokingly called him "My Hero,", I pressed a kiss onto my thumb and pressed my kissed thumb onto his lips- surprising him for a second before Barbs kept his composure (Dia laughed heartedly in the background).
not sure if this could be considered an original idea (potential writing prompt 👀) but whatever-

Can You Get To That ~ Funkadelic
I recollect with a-mixed emotions all the good times we used to have But you were making preparations for the coming separation and you blew everything we had When you base your love on credit and your loving days are done Checks you signed with a-love and kisses, later come back signed, "Insufficient funds"
Shotgun ~ Pomplamoose, dodie
If you need me, you know where I'll be I'll be riding shotgun Underneath the hot sun Feeling like a someone
Bread and Roses ~ Dawn Landes, Alana Amram, Abigail Chapin
As we go marching, marching, unnumbered women dead Go crying through our singing their ancient cry for bread Small art and love and beauty their trudging spirits knew Yes, it is bread we fight for, but we fight for roses too
Nina Cried Power ~ Hozier, Mavis Staples
It's not the song, it is the singing It's the hearing of a human spirit ringing It is the bringing of the line It is the bearing of the rhyme It's not the waking, it's the rising

How the Obey Me Cast Would Protect MC
Lucifer
With all his (considerable) might.
Keeping his human safe in such a dangerous place is a point of pride to him. To attack them, then, is to besmirch that pride… and you can imagine the consequences of that.
Cold and brutal, but also swift and effective. Lucifer will have any attacker who comes at them cooked to a crisp then served to Cerberus by lunchtime.
If someone were to actually hurt MC, he'd take it as a failure on his part and seek to "fix" it by any means necessary. An eye for an eye is not nearly strict enough, even a light bruise will make him go for the heart.
Mammon
To his dying breath.
They are one of the best things to happen to him in centuries so do you think that he's going to let them go easily? Of course not!
Mammon is no slouch. He's second oldest and second strongest, so any intruder better take him seriously. His speed is his greatest weapon and he'll end a fight before it gets to start.
Mammon would 100% lay down his life if it meant keeping MC safe. He wouldn't think about it nor hesitate and his attacks are pretty reckless in kind. Anyone who hurts MC won't be able to hide behind his self-preservation, they're always going down even if he's going with them.
Leviathan 
With the force of a Grand Admiral.
Usually, Levi prefers to stay out of confrontation. Not because he's too weak to fight but because he's often too much to handle.
This man's opening move is to summon a seven-headed sea monster that floods the local area and chews his opponents to pieces... How much worse do you think he can do when he's serious?
Levi isn't put into the spotlight very often and he'll rarely enter a fight head-on, but for MC he'll win any battle, any time. He's bringing a tank to a water balloon fight and he doesn't care who screams, "HAX!!!"
Satan
Like a beast without a cage.
Don't be fooled by his brains and good manners, under all of that lies a bona fide demon.
"Savage" doesn't even begin to describe Satan when he's pissed and being a threat to MC will get him there in a millisecond. He's every bit as remorseless as Lucifer, but without the careful efficiency. Breaking every bone takes time.
And again, that's only if he considers someone a threat. To anyone who actually hurts MC, there'll be so little left Simeon will have nothing to pray over... Promise.
Asmodeus 
As if they were a part of himself.
Asmo has gone on record many times saying how much he loves himself - he could kiss a mirror, he loves himself that much. But when MC stepped into his life, they became a part of him too.
So all that anger he gets when he sees a chipped nail? The fury he feels when someone ruins his hair? He feels the same when someone hurts MC, but tenfold. 
The people who hurt them aren't just attacking his image, they're attacking his soul - and he responds in kind. No punishment is too steep at that point. Even if it was his charm, he'd say they did it to themselves.
Beelzebub 
Like he's sworn an oath.
In the Celestial Realm, Beel was ready to lay down his life for Lucifer. He doesn't see much of a difference here, really.
Defending his loved ones is in his DNA - it's how he thinks and operates. The moment the MC befriended Beel, whether they knew it or not, they had a bodyguard for life.
He's already lost one family member but he'll never lose another. He'll be the first to leap to their defense and the last to ever call it quits. Satan may leave a little, but Beel will make sure there's nothing left when he's done.
Belphegor 
Like there's finally something worth fighting for.
Being as lazy and lethargic as he is, most people wouldn't pick Belphegor as their protector, but for MC? He'll wake right up.
Belphie had been running on autopilot for a long time after losing Lilith... If he had any reason to fight anymore, it'd be for Beel but it's not like his twin needs the help.
The MC is different… so human and as fragile as ever. Though it feels like they could disappear at any moment, he'd never let it happen. He'd burn everything to the ground first.
Diavolo
With the power of a King.
Just take a moment to actually appreciate how insane someone must be to want to hurt MC with the Demon Lord at their back...
Does this even need elaboration? He would maim them, eviscerate them, send an army to trample their bones, then resurrect the pieces to do it all over again!
For the good that the MC has done him, his realm, and the world at large - he wouldn't settle for anything less. But of course, no one would be that stupid anyway… Right...?
Barbatos
Quietly, from the shadows.
Barbatos knows where he fits in the world. He doesn't need any fame or glory, nor to be looked at as some kind of hero (because he most certainly is not).
Barbs will take every measure possible to be sure that threats are dealt with, but always behind the scenes. He's a man of many talents, thus it never takes him very long.
The MC is his Lord's guest and very important to everyone there… Their stay shouldn't be marred by something as trivial as fear. They can just keep going about their day as usual and he'll keep the threats buried out of sight... literally.
Simeon
Without mercy.
All the kindness in the world can't hide one thing, Simeon is a living weapon - plain and simple - as an Archangel it's in his job description.
Loyal but pragmatic, Simeon will do or say what he needs to in order to get the best outcome he can. He's an angel, but he'll bend or even break the rules when MC is involved...
If they're in danger, he will defend them however he can and with all his might. There's no room for forgiveness or talking things out. He's risked everything for them before and he'll do it again and again…
Solomon
Even if the world burns...
To say that Solomon has a "different" way of looking at things would be charitable. Either from prolonged corruption or centuries of a lonely life: his methods, priorities, and even logic can be a bit iffy to others…
Likewise, for reasons only he knows (perhaps the emotion called "Love"), he's decided that the MC is worth protecting above all else. He will hold true to this.
The stars could be falling and the planet cracking to pieces sending mayhem running through the streets as the Three Realms collapse around them - but he will do everything in his immense power to safeguard the only thing that matters - his MC.

Effectively Trained (2/2)
Yandere! Hawks x Reader
Warning: this story contains non-consensual touching, forced sex, mentions of serious harm and abuse, kidnapping, and excessive use of strong language! 18+ only please <3
Part One
Tumblr media
Today was finally the day that the young malnourished woman was finally going to get a taste of freedom. She forgot what it even tasted like after a year of being locked up. She wore a beautiful white sundress, something Hawks had gotten her for a date in the house. Her head peeked out from the bathroom, no make up whatsoever on her face remembering rule 13. There luckily wasn’t a rule about styling her hair. She had a cute braided bun with a shiny feathery pendent Hawks got her to keep it up and neat. She had a small leather brown purse to accompany her, the pro hero’s credit card snuggly tucked away in a small wallet. Excited was an understatement, she was ecstatic to go off in her own. Sort of.
“K-Keigo? I’m ready.” She called out for him, awaiting his approval on her outfit. The messy haired hero sent a feather through the door, the barbs poking lightly at her back to get her to move towards the door. She quietly and quickly obeyed and walked out of the bedroom and into the kitchen where he had a toothbrush between his teeth, only clad in a pair of grey boxers. His wings were droopy against the floor, utterly relaxed in the comfort of his own home. His avian eyes peered up to approve of her attire. He frowned. “That outfit was only meant for my eyes, dove. Buuut...” He trailed off and scratched at his chin. She spent a year studying his body language, and immediately knew he was considering letting her go with the dress. His feathers fluffed up and rose from their droopy state back to life against his back. “Alright. Think of this as an apology for fucking you unconscious last night.”
“Th-Thank you Keigo...” She voiced her gratefulness and walked over towards him, slowly placing a chaste kiss onto his soft lips. He smirked and cooed in approval of her actions. A scarlet red feather drifted from his wings and he nestled the feather within her hair neatly, luckily it was one of his smallest feathers. “I’ll be a bit more lenient today with some of the rules. Gotta try and act as normal as possible or else people will get suspicious you’re some drug dealer or somethin’ like that.” He chuckled and ran his hands down her sides, admiring the way she looked in the dress he’d gotten her. He stared down at her seriously and his eyes glinted in warning. “Now don’t forget the rules though, dove. It would be a shame if you never saw a lick of light ever again.”
Her face paled. She nodded anxiously and hugged him tightly, burying her face deeply into his chest, almost as if she was trying to merge herself with him. “Glad you understand, dove.” He pried her off of him and smiled down at her with a careless smile, perceived as a ‘you better not fuck up today’ from his lover. He tilted her chin up and stared into her eyes, admiring their lovely color. “Your eyes are still so beautiful. Even when you’re scared out of your pants. Get going before I change my mind.” She quickly obeyed his orders, scrambling out of the apartment and to the elevator. Her heart was hammering harshly against her chest being away from Hawks. It was almost like a dream. ‘Why am I so anxious? Shouldn’t I be happy to be away from him? Why do I feel this way...’
His abuse had beaten her down. She now even felt uneasy without him by her side. Yes he went on hero business regularly and she would be alone in the house, but she would be locked up in his bedroom, everything that smelled like him, gave her comfort. She was crazy for missing him, but after a year of only having contact with him, no matter how bad it was, she was now terrified of the outside world. She even forgot how to use an elevator. Her sweaty hands clenched onto her purse, her body trembling a bit. ‘I thought... I wanted to go out, but I want to go back home! I want to go back to Hawk-‘ She stopped her inner thoughts once the red feather nestled in her hair came out neatly and nuzzled against her cheek.
He could sense her nervousness. Hearing her heartbeat, feeling the vibrations of her shaking body. When she obeyed, he treated her like an angel. Just like now, while she was scared to death, he comforted her with a small feather. Her fingers gently touched the soft yet sharp barbed object, smiling softly at his comforting act. ‘I... like when Hawks is like this. Sweet and caring, and not like... his really possessive side...’ She shivered and gently pushed the feather back into her hair as soon as the elevator doors opened. Her mouth hung open seeing the bright and beautiful lobby. Hawks always flew her out to events, so she’d never gotten to see the lobby. She looked around nervously and quickly exited the building before someone could speak to her.
Once she was outside, for the first time actually being free, she felt her heart speed up a bit at the sight. Birds were flying cheerfully in the sky. So blue, so beautiful, and the sun kissed her face, welcoming her to the true beauty of the world. The wind blew gently against her face, and the smell of spring whisked through her nose, urging her to venture more. She stepped out and smiled genuinely, looking around the city at all of the lively people, the shops, the busy streets, leisurely heroes on patrol. So normal, so peaceful to her. A part of her still wanted to go home however, but she pushed that thought away and pushed on.
First stop, grocery grocery store.
She grabbed the small metal cart and began to push it slowly through the store, examining all the foods stocked up on the walls everywhere. Her stomach growled hungrily seeing all the food. ‘Only take what you need...’ She thought to herself. By the end of her journey she had three bags of chips, four packs of chicken tenders, three packs of ground chuck, two loaves of bread, enough coffee for Hawks, some coffee for her, tea, soda, candy, gum, feminine products, Plan B, crackers, bananas, apples, vegetables, eggs, and even a cake. People looked at her as if she was crazy. Her cart was stacked as high as possible. ‘Oops... I went over board... at least we won’t have to go to the store anytime soon.’
“Okay ma’am. The total today is 436.35.” Her face paled drastically. She went WAY overboard. She didn’t make eye contact or even look up at him while she pulled Hawks’ thick black credit card out, silently handing it to him. “Uhm, you just insert it there ma’am.” Her face lit up in embarrassment and she put the card in the small slot. It was backwards. “You have to put that yellow chip in.” She nodded quietly, putting the chip inside the slot. She watched as the small reader lit up and asked for her pin. It was Hawks’ card, and she didn’t know the pin. She began to panic. They would know it wasn’t her card and think she stole it, especially from the number two hero. It was like her lover read her mind. The short feather drifted from her hair and drifted over the reader, carefully pushing the pin in and pressing enter.
Approved!
The cashier’s jaw was dropped all the way to the floor. There was no mistaking the signature red feather that floated as if it had a mind of its own. The clerk looked up at the woman and saw her slowly whisper to the feather. In a flash, more feathers came bolting into the store, careful to avoid people and whisk to grab the bags of groceries. “Th-Thank you, Hawks... s-Sorry...” she whispered softly to the feather in front of her. Of course it didn’t respond and went back into her hair. She smiled softly at the card and took it, putting it back into her wallet. People were staring at her, all eyes focused on the feathers surrounding her. They all slowly disappeared once she stepped out of the store.
Second stop, book store.
Because Hawks had taken her phone and didn’t allow her to have one, all she could do was read books. If anyone knew the lazy hero at all, they would know what a glutton he is. He likes to eat, sleep, and go on leisurely patrols that he never gets. The only book he had in his possession was an autobiography by Destro, a villain. She had already read the book cover to cover. It was an enjoyable read, but she couldn’t completely understand the stuff mentioned. She picked out a couple of sweet romance books, fantasy, thrillers, and cooking books. Once she was at check out, she reluctantly put the romance books back, worried Hawks would be angry. Once she check out, she once again asked if Hawks would kindly take the books to their home.
He obliged, even though he was all the way on the other side of town. Luckily they were only small bags of books and not a trunk full of groceries. As a break before going to the park, she stopped by a small little café for a coffee and a snack. Once she had received her items she went to sit at a table outside. Her body was slowly getting used to being free again, and having the luxury of being her own person once more. “Excuse me.” She recognized that voice. Her head jerked up to see the number one hero standing tall above her. His intimidating gaze was fixated on the feather stuck neatly in her hair, showing off to him that this indeed was Hawks’ lover. “Can I sit here?”
She only slightly nodded, instantly regretting her decision once she felt the feather begin to vibrate. The quickly shook her head in disapproval to his actions, but it was already too late. He had sat across from her with his arms crossed. His posture perfect, gaze intimidating, muscles flexing underneath his tense demeanor. “I’m actually glad I found you, I have a couple questions for you.” She didn’t meet his gaze whatsoever. He huffed in annoyance and started to question her. “I’d like to know your real relationship with Hawks. You were acting very skittish at the event last night. Why is that?”
No answer.
“You know it’s rude to ignore someone. Maybe you are Hawks lover. Taking on his childish ways.” Her head slowly raised, and the pro hero was shocked to see tears spilling from her eyes. Terror stricken down to the core of her body, her hands now shaking in the small cup of coffee she had in her fingers. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you. Let me-“ he reached his hand out awkwardly trying to offer a bit of comfortable support. He’s been trying to become a better hero ever since he became number one, so fan service and reassuring people were all new to him. Why not start with Hawks’s girlfriend? “DON’T TOUCH ME!!!” She shrieked unexpectedly. Everyone was now looking at her and the pro. The next words that fell from her mouth sealed her fate. “HE’LL HURT ME AGAIN!!!”
Hurt her? Again?
Endeavor narrowed his eyes. “Again? What do you mean again? Is Hawks hurting you?” (Y/N) snapped her hand to her mouth quickly, realizing she had fucked up. She jerked her head around and saw everyone staring at her. She stood quickly, starting to back up as tears streamed down her face. Endeavor stood and reached out for her again, but in a flash of red, Hawks was in between them, making a loud thump on the ground alerting everyone of his presence. The look in his eyes held pure rage, his wings outstretched wide, showing a dominant stance over Endeavor, feathers fluffed to the brim displaying his anger. His eyes suddenly focused on civilians and he gave a cheeky smile.
“Baby bird!! You okay? Nobody hurt you did they?” He asked with worry, turning to face her. The woman lunged into his arms, sobbing into his chest and muttering a sloppy slur of apologies. Hawks’ arms immediately went around her waist, holding her deathly close, his thick gloved fingers digging into her sides as punishment. She only cried harder and shouted apologies, causing a huge scene. The winged-hero smiled warmly and rubbed her back soothingly. “It’s alright dove, I’ve got ya now.” Even though his voice was warm and reassuring to everyone, the woman in his arms understood the hidden emotion behind them. Utter rage. He looked at Endeavor and waved his hand lazily. “Sorry about that folks! Didn’t mean to interrupt you! Endeavor, could I talk to you?”
“Good. I need to talk to you too, Hawks.” Endeavor spoke, a bit of venom dripping off his voice. ‘Could Hawks really be hurting this woman? Judging by her actions, it seems that way.’ His cyan eyes followed Hawks’ movements, watching carefully as the number two hero whispered into her ear. He took great note of how the feathers of his wings fluffed up more, standing on edge almost. A pair of harsh, angry, possessive, golden avian eyes collided with a sea of turquoise, wings spreading further towards the sky in warning. “Come to my agency later. We can talk then.” He turned around and held his woman close to him, wings lowering slightly as he was about to take off. Before he did, he turned with the angriest face Endeavor had ever seen on him. “And don’t you dare... reach for my beautiful angel ever again.”
——
‘If he just wanted me to meet him here he should’ve said that instead of sending me on a wild goose chase.’ The flame hero stood in front of the number two hero’s door, knocking three times. After he received no answer he knocked harsher. He could slightly hear scrambling coming from the other side, followed by the flapping of wings and a deep laugh. Hawks was the one who opened the door, only in a pair of sweatpants and covered in sweat. “Nice of you to finally join us, Endeavor. You’re a bit late.” The flames around his face glowed brighter, displaying his irritation with Hawks’ lazy behavior. He huffed and pushed passed. “Can’t even fix yourself to greet a guest. How-“
He stopped immediately once he saw the damage Hawks had caused. There on the floor laid his lover, in her beautiful sundress covered in hickeys and love bites, her head dizzy with her legs shaking. Hawks smirked smugly and feigned his surprise. “Oh man! Sorry Edneavor, just couldn’t keep my hands of her ya know?” The winged man walked closer towards his lover and pulled her up by the hair, smirking and giving her a small kiss. The woman winced and lowered her head obediently awaiting the next order. “Go clean up, we’ve got a guest. The number one! Don’t wanna look bad and ruin my reputation do you?” She shook her head desperately and stumbled up, rushing to the bedroom, small drops heard as she ran with her dress on. Hawks snickered and grunted. “Makin’ a bigger mess now. Droppin’ all of my cum outta her loose pussy. Guess I gotta teach her better, huh Endeavor?”
“What the hell is this Hawks? Some kind of sick joke?” Endeavor became angry at the way Hawks was just treating this random woman he didn’t know like some useless toy. Hawks only blinked, his wings fluffing up, but his face showed a fake cheeky smile. “Nope, that’s my beautiful baby bird. She likes to be beat, have her abused cunt full of my fuckin’ cum til she can’t move anymore.” Endeavor wasn’t believing that lie one bit. Hawks’ aggressive behavior earlier revealed enough that he was purely jealous. The number one hero knew about abuse, he’d done it, and regretted it ever since. His family hated him, he killed one of his sons, or so he believes. Seeing Hawks take such a path, it was disappointing and disgusting. “I want to talk to her.”
Hawks’ feathers were standing on edge now, fluffing more and more, his anger overflowing, but he still displayed that stupid smile. “Sure thing! Lemme go get ‘er for ya.” He turned around, back littered with painful scratch marks, feathers missing from the bottom of his large wings. A few feathers came off, floating to life, but he didn’t get too far before Endeavor stopped him. “Let her clean up, I’ve already canceled plans for this.” Hawks smirked and turned back towards him, shrugging his shoulders and using the feathers he sent to clean up the mess on the floor and couch. Soon the winged-hero’s lover returned all cleaned up and everything. “Come ‘ere dove.” He offered his hand out to her, to which she quickly took and went straight into his arms.
“Can I talk to you privately miss (Y/N)?” She shook her head quickly, but Hawks was quick to intervene. His wings possessively came around her, shielding her from his suspicious gaze. “Awe come on Endeavor. We’re a pair here, whatever you gotta say to her you can to me too.” (Y/N)’s eyes slowly peeked out, and she finally met Endeavors gaze. That look, he’d seen it before. It screamed, ‘help me!’ And that’s just what he was going to do. “I just want to talk to her.” He glared at Hawks, demanding he leave them both alone. The hero’s feathers fluffed, but he shrugged passively. “Alright. Don’t make any moves on my girl ya here?” He joked and walked away, his wings twitching occasionally.
The two sat in silence.
Her eyes were locked on Endeavors, hoping to convey her message through sight. However, any move she made, murmur under her breath, nothing would go unnoticed by Hawks. He was listening. A scarlet red feather was carefully hidden under the couch, where her eyes could barely even see. Her eyes moved in a quick motion, indicating she wanted him to look down. Cyan eyes moved down to lay on the feather on the floor. He understood the situation very clearly now. A bold move was made, he grabbed her hand and stood. “Let’s chat some other time.” She smiled softly and mouthed a soft thank you. Her eyes stared at the hero before her in admiration. Someone willing to help her.
Maybe she would finally be free?
“Be careful until then. Don’t let him do that anymore. I know a thing or two about what he’s doing. It cost me everything.” He knew Hawks was listening. It was a threat. The feather shook under the couch, displaying a hidden anger. (Y/N) nodded gratefully. Her heart rate was already accelerating at the thought of having a normal life again. Sure it would take time to adjust not being near Hawks, but she would eventually have an ordinary life again. Endeavor was hesitant to leave her by herself with the presumed hero. Worry settled in his gut, and he ultimately turned and walked out the door, his fists clenched. ‘She’ll be alright until tomorrow. I’ll bring back up if I need it, something tells me Hawks isn’t going to let her go anytime soon.’
Once that door was closed, feathers came and harshly jabbed into her back, shoving her down to the ground. She cried out in pain as blood poured from the wounds, and the stinging pain ached in her chest. “You fucking slut.” He calls out darkly, wings spread menacingly, feathers fluffed, pupils shrunken as he approached her. Her body was still aching and weak from his lustfully powerful assault on her before Endeavor got there. “You let him touch you, you fucking looked at him with those beautiful eyes that were only meant for me. ME!” His voice wasn’t as angry as she expected it to be, sure it sounded furious, but there was desperation evident. She looked back and was horrified by what she found.
He was crying.
Though his eyes showed complete and utter rage, salty tears still cascaded down his soft cheeks, hurt by her continued disobedience and want to get away. “Why... why do you continue to fuckin’ disobey me?! Don’t I do everything for you? I’m your favorite hero remember?! You’re my angel! My beautiful dove! MY MATE!!” Her eyes were wide, pupils shrunk in fear, her body stiff as a board. He brought a feather blade up in his hand, and without even thinking he began to take out his rage. Hawks had snapped. His hand moved repeatedly, shouting angrily and hurling insults. “ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS LISTEN!! BUT ALL YOU WERE WAS A DISOBEDIENT LITTLE BITCH!!! YOU FUCKIN’ UNGRATEFUL SLUT!!!!” Her screams fell upon his deaf ears, too blinded by rage and sadness to even acknowledge anything else. He continued to shout, bringing the feather down again, hot liquid splattering onto his abdomen. “WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO HURT ME?! YOU’RE ALL I HAVE LEFT!! I-I DO EVERYTHING AND YOU STILL DON’T LOVE ME?!?! WHY!!!! TELL ME WHY!!!!”
Splat!
He stopped. His wide terrified eyes casting downwards to look at the horrific sight before him. There on the floor laid his lover, his baby bird, his angel, his dove, his everything. Multiple stab wounds were present in her stomach, arms, legs, and feathers had stuck harshly to her arms, hands, and feet, keeping her pinned to the ground while he assaulted her. Those beautiful eyes he loved, were now dull and lifeless, slowly losing color. “(Y-Y/N)? H-Hey dove... get up. Come on baby bird. Come ‘ere.” He opened his arms with a reassuring smile. She didn’t move. His eye twitched, tears welling up. “Baby? Come on, let’s just go to bed. I’ll tuck ya in, get you some chicken. I promise I won’t hurt you again okay? How does that sound?”
No response.
He was beginning to lose it now. What had he done? “Get up.” He ordered sternly, his teeth grit tightly, his fists shaking while his wings slowly began to lose their strength and slump against the floor. He reached down and grabbed her shirt she’d put on, pulling her up and angrily glaring. “I said; get up.” He demanded. Once again she didn’t move. Accepting what he’d done, he fell to his knees in front of her lifeless body, his avian eyes wide with tears streaming down his face. He’d fucked up. He hurt her really bad this time. He killed her. His feathers couldn’t even pick up the soft thumping of her heart. It was gone. “No... what have I done...? I’m sorry... come back... please come back...”
“COME BACK!!!!!”
“Isn’t this Hawks’ place?”
“Yeah, a couple neighbors said they heard loud yelling and crying last night, along with a bunch of banging.”
The two officers assigned to check out Hawks’ apartment were lazily conversing while they debated whether to actually go in or not. They believed the number two hero would defend himself easily, that this was probably nothing. One officer raised his hand and knocked on the door, only to discover the door was already unlocked. They both immediately looked at each other and pulled their weapons, slowly opening the door. Blood was splattered all over the floor, feathers evident everywhere. There was the faint sound of laughing coming distantly from the bedroom. The officers carefully explored the house, making their way to Hawks’ bedroom. As soon as they arrived and saw him, they went to his aid.
“Hawks! Are you alright? What happened?!” The pro hero was sat slumped in front of his closet with a dreamy smile on his face. The whole right side of his face was abused and dripping blood. His pants and shirt were stained completely, the irony spell infecting his nose and numbing his body. Once the officer got to him, his stomach churned in terror. A sharp feather was held in the hero’s shaking hand, covered in blood. His right eye was missing, lazily laid on the floor beside him. In place of his eye was a sloppily positioned beautiful lifeless (E/C) one. “What... what happened?” Hawks didn’t even acknowledge the man, only continued to stare into his closet. The officer slowly looked up to the closet, and froze in horror.
There in his closet, stained in blood and littered in feathers was the pro hero’s lover, (Y/N) (L/N). Her right eye was also missing, revealing to the officer that Hawks was the one that killed her, carved her eye out and placed it in himself. “She... is with me forever.” He announced weakly, his lips stretching into a sadistically terrifying grin. His hands shook and his wings rose up shakily, spreading them wide as if he was still trying to impress her. “She’ll always be with me... can you see angel? Can you see what I did for you?” The officer called out for his partner and pinned Hawks to the ground, bringing his radio to his mouth and calling for an ambulance and back up. The hero still kept his eyes on his woman, smiling at her while blood continued to gush from his wounds.
“We’re together forever angel~”
Endeavor slowly opened the door to Hawks’ room. Dressed in black with two guards beside him. Guilt bubbled in his stomach and he felt like he was going to vomit. If only he had stayed with her and not left her alone with Hawks, maybe this wouldn’t have happened. He read reports about the carnage he had caused. He still couldn’t believe Hawks was even capable of such a thing. His cyan eyes rose to meet the crazed figure laying in a bed, scarlet wings absent from his back. The former pro hero’s head was wrapped, a patch covering the eye he had torn out himself. His wings tightly wrapped and stripped of the feathers, preventing the growth of anymore deadly weapons sprouting. Hawks smiled and waved.
“Heya Endeavor! Thanks for joining us!” He carelessly removed the wrappings from his head, his face swollen and damaged. His idol stood before him, visiting him and his lover, he wanted to look his best —and show off his beautiful lover. “(Y/N) says hi too.” He slowly opens both his eyes, a golden eye in the left, a (E/C) eye in the right, fully functional. The doctors had made a drastic decision to go ahead and replace Hawks’ eye with the one he forcibly replaced. The sight would forever haunt Endeavor to the core. He would always be remembered of his mistake. His mistake that cost an innocent girl her life. “We’re glad you came to visit. There’s so much we wanna talk about!”
‘I’ve learned my lesson, (Y/N). I’ll never take my anger out on you again. Now we’ll live together, forever, and no one can separate us!’

PROMPT #25: Silver Lining
"Sappho! Please come quickly!"
For Venat to intentionally disturb her at her desk meant a matter of some grave urgency. Sure enough, when Sappho looked up from the line of her latest epic - For why would the hero have thought to look for the villain in her own shadow? - her lover's face was horrifically pale beneath her mask.
"It's Eurydice," said Venat, and fear gripped Sappho's heart. "She's... something's happened. We must go to her at once!"
Sappho would pause the hard-won pursuit of her craft for very few occasions; the endangerment of her young friend was one of them. She left her desk and sprinted out of her apartment, down each flight of stairs as fast as her legs could carry her, before she could even remember that she had forgotten her mask. Such things no longer mattered, not now, and precious few remained in Amaurot who cared enough for her reputation to chastise her.
A crowd had already gathered around the Bureau of the Architect, most of them murmuring and milling about. Sappho, too, could make note of the oppressive aether that had gathered within the walls, a cloying presence on the edge of her senses.
"Where is she?!" she called. "Where is Eurydice?!"
"She's still inside!" shouted one of the attendants. "She's the only one not accounted for!"
Sappho did not ask if anyone had already gone inside to help: she knew the answer, and to bring it to life would only dull her purpose with rage. Rather than dissuade her or try to hold her back, the crowd parted to clear a path for her, the only maskless figure in an anonymous sea.
"Give me ten minutes," Sappho said to Venat, and she nodded. "If I do not return by then-"
"Find Orpheus," she finished, "and go in after you."
At any other moment, Sappho might have kissed her, but she dared not waste another second. For the first time in all too long, she rolled up her sleeves and spoke a quick word to summon her trusted sword and shield. Thus prepared, she charged alone into the Bureau of the Architect.
The moment the doors closed behind her, Sappho stood in a deeper darkness than any she had ever known. And yet it was achingly, intimately familiar - as if the sun and all the stars had been blotted out from the sky.
Her heart clenched as a cold wave of understanding gripped her.
The darkness roiled at her coming, for it knew her as its maker. Sappho could not hope to oppose it yet, not in this omnipresent gloom; she could only hope to plunge deeper into it, until she discovered Eurydice or some other trace of its source.
She heard the girl before she saw her, all the way from the other end of the entrance hall. Eurydice was weeping, lashing out impotently with her dagger at mere wisps of shadow that had confined her to a small corner.
"Eurydice!" Sappho called. She hurried in and spread her sword wide, generating a flash like the lighthouses on one of the coastal cities she had visited throughout her travels. The shadows writhed and squirmed and faded back into the abyss, though their defeat offered no relief from the darkness.
Eurydice sank to her knees in relief. "Sappho? Sappho, is that you? I can't see you, I'm... I'm so sorry!"
"Later," she insisted. She knelt down and placed a hand upon the girl's shoulder. "For now, we must bring everything we have to bear against this concept." Eurydice was no fighter. For this, just this once, it would not matter. "It will be difficult, but not impossible - and no matter what, we must not give in."
"But-"
"Eurydice. I wrote the words you spoke from a place of great despair - at a time when I lost everything." Her title, her purpose - and most of all, her adventuring. "But I am still here. I have Venat, and I have you. And together, we will leave this place, and we will find Orpheus."
Eurydice burst into tears anew at the sound of that name. "I was so stupid! He doesn't love me, he-"
"Orpheus loves you like no one has ever loved a girl before. And his love may not be the love you need now, but it is real - and if you have any desire to claim it, it will endure." She helped Eurydice to her feet, dusted her off a little, and placed a kiss upon the top of her head for good measure. "But whether you leave this place for his sake or for your own, make sure you leave it."
The words emboldened Sappho as surely as they emboldened Eurydice - yet on the far end of the hall, as if to rise to the challenge, a being manifested from out of the gloom.
It spoke to Eurydice's gift of construction that the summoned form resembled perfectly the darkness that had prompted Sappho to put her quill to parchment: an all-consuming emptiness, a despair that wore her own face. The cloud of darkness floated far above the floor of the grand hall, wearing nothing upon its body but lines of ink and blood, and from its hideously perfect form streamed forth barbed tetrameters, coiled like serpents.
Selfish, stupid, slothful sinner.
"Keep behind me," she murmured, and Eurydice obeyed at once.
The darkness fixed its eyes on Sappho and smiled in recognition. It raised one hand and summoned a single burning orb to throw at them both. Sappho deflected the blow with her shield, wincing as the jolt sent a shock all the way up her arm.
You help yourself and fail the world.
"Ignore it," she muttered. The words were as much for herself as they were for Eurydice. "Whatever it says, ignore it; it means to make you forget yourself."
She shone another light from her sword and the darkness recoiled.
"I do not need to defeat you," she said to the darkness. "I need only to keep you at bay."
***
Sappho and Eurydice walked out from the Bureau of the Architect side by side, with their arms around each other's shoulders. The crowd that had gathered near the building had since doubled in size, but Sappho could still make note of Orpheus at the very front: his lyre slung over his shoulder made him difficult to miss. Eurydice rushed to greet him, and Sappho gladly saw her to the safety of his arms.
Emet-Selch, too, stood at the rear of the crowd, distinguishable at a distance only by his red mask. Without a mask of her own, he could see every expression to cross her face in full; doubtless he could read her irritation as deftly as he read her epics.
"Sappho," he said by way of greeting. It was the first he'd called her by her name since she had given up the title "Azem." "I had thought you were meant to surrender all weapon concepts upon relinquishing your role."
"Are you going to hold me in contempt of the Convocation?" she retorted.
His wry smile only widened. "No," he admitted. "I mean only to praise you for a swift rescue."
"Save it," she snapped. "A girl nearly died bringing one of my works to life. Is that what you wanted me to say?"
He was raising one of his stupid eyebrows under his mask; he had to be. "And what is it you want to say, Sappho? It's been nearly a full year since you began working on your magnum opus."
Venat's hand took hold of hers; at her touch, Sappho relinquished whatever harsh words she might have later come to regret. "You'll see for yourself," she replied, and set back off toward her apartment. "When I've finished."

Request rules~!
Here is my obey me masterlist!
Here is my My Hero Masterlist!
Here is my Mystic Messenger Masterlist!
I have a Kenma obsession.
List of characters I write for!
🌹100 Followers Special!✨ (Barbs x MC x Solomon fluff alphabet! GN reader!)
AO3 fic link list part 1 - a list of links for different AO3 fics. Kiribaku, Solangelo, Shinkami EraserMic, Tododeku, Hawks x reader, +more part 2

I take HC requests for a majority of My Hero Academia characters, just not the LoV! PLEASE SEE THE MHA SECTION OF MY REQUEST RULES BEFORE REQUESTING!
You can request short things (Drabbles technically I guess?) or Head cannons! I will also do something like “who would be who, the brothers in the My hero universe” or something like that.
If cursing/swearing makes you uncomfortable but there is a fic you want to read, you can also request a clean version of it! I’d do this to all my fics as I make them but sometimes for a character I feel it just makes more sense for there to be cursing within their language. However! If you request a clean version of a fic, I will HAPPILY make some tweaks for you! It wouldn’t be hard at all! Typically however my fics don’t involve much cursing and there will be a warning at the beginning of each chapter if there is. There is also a cursing warning in the descriptions on my masterlist!
I WILL WRITE CHARACTERS AS DIFFERENT GENDERS- YES PLEASE!
I’ll take NSFW requests for now but I’m not sure how NSFW I’ll go.
Just cuz I don’t know my limits doesn’t mean I don’t have an idea.
Anything regarding Luke will be SFW. (Safe for work) if you want a romantic scenario PLEASE SPECIFY TO AGE HIM UP. I will age him up and write a new little “how you met” scenario at the beginning but I will not write romantic stuff for him unless you tell me to age him up. (If you know how you want to meet feel free to say so and I’ll use that)
However, platonic Luke is something I will most definitely do at any age! If you don’t specify platonic aged up Luke then I’ll assume chihuahua Luke.
I don’t write Yandere x reader.
I will not write incest. If you want platonic cuddles of the brothers or the brothers showing affection as brothers, that I WILL MOST DEFINETLY DO YES PLEASE JUST LET THEM BE LOVING SIBLINGS PLEASEEEEE
I do write Poly stuff! Just please Specify if you request something like “Dia x MC x Luci” if Dia and Luci are in a relationship as well or not. (If there is a term other than Polyamourous for the not, please let me know and I will fix it as soon as I see.)
I’ll write ships! But please again specify if it is platonic or not!
I’ll write reactions to stuff like “Levi’s reaction to getting hit on” or something like that, that isn’t by MC but also doesn’t include other brothers.
Head cannons have no character limit!
Drabbles I’m unsure about a character limit! Gotta figure that out! For now request as much as ya like IF IT IS THE SAME SCENARIO.
If you have multiple scenarios in your head each for different characters - PLEASE PUT THEM IN SEPARATE REQUESTS!
Feel free to send as many as ya like!
I don’t write pedophillia, obviously
I don’t write for Littles because I don’t know enough about it and it creeps me out just a bit so I don’t look into it too much.
MHA request Rules
Okay, so MHA is a special situation. I’ve never watched the anime or read the manga, but there are so many ADORABLE ships I am willing to write for.
I don’t care if I get spoilers for this anime/manga but if something extra super major happens- ESPECIALLY IF IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH MANGA AIZAWA DONT TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS- I will not take the request or write for it because chances are I really don’t know what happened.
I will write Drabbles for ships
I will write Head cannons for ships
I will write head cannons for x readers
Hawks is the only character I can write an x reader Drabble for
I will write head cannons!
Unless they are cannonly adult I don’t take direct NSFW requests
Yes I want to be Denki and yes I’m in love with Hawks, do I have daddy issues? Not really no but I wouldn’t be surprised if I do and I’m an idiot.
All rules can be changed at any point in time or be added to.
That’s all for now I believe!
Oh! Requests are 100% currently open!

i was tagged by @cartadwarfwithaheartofgold with wip wednesday! tagging @the-temple-of-sacred-asses, @storybookhawke, and @robot-thighs
first up is a piece of Its Just A Jump And A Twist, an ongoing time travel story wherein a post inquisition leliana gets to go back and time to redo origins:
The first time this wheel had turned, a much younger Leliana had found herself weeping in a corner of their temporary camp barricaded behind bookcases. She'd had her hands over her mouth, trying to muffle herself so she wouldn't disturb her companions. It hadn't been the death alone that had twisted her belly up in knots until she had to cry or scream or else would burst with it, but the very act of being in the tower. Of wandering claustrophobic halls choked with blood and fear that had thrust her right back into a different place, a different torture room at the hands of someone who had sworn she would always be there to protect her. A fallen mage just within view through a gap in the barricade looked at her with Tug’s sightless eyes, and Leliana had retched behind her hands.
That was when cool hands had curved over her own, freezing Leliana's roiling thoughts long enough to lift her head and stare until the person crouched before her had resolved itself into Amleda Tabris. Amleda and her hesitant, crooked smile and the warmth of comforting words Leliana could no longer remember. She remember how warm they had felt, though, pushing the earlier chill in her chest back until she could breathe again. Amleda had always done that for her, whenever a chance-caught glimpse of red hair or some combination of words made the whole world shake loose beneath her feet, leaving nothing left but Leliana and old scars. And somehow, that space came to include Amleda, too.
And then it didn't.
Back then, Leliana had obeyed an impulse she couldn't have named at the time, one that moved her to brush her lips across Amleda’s in a soft, hesitant kiss. Had breathed out, once, then she realized. Remembered. And made to pull back and pull away because Amleda wasn't responding. Wasn't moving, wasn't speaking or laughing with her or doing anything but staring wide-eyed, her mouth hanging open. Leliana's hands had come up to wrap around her belly, and that must have been when some lever was finally pulled in Amleda’s brain, because she had lurched forward and brought their mouths crashing together again, and for the first time.
Their first kiss. A brief moment of beauty shared in a place of despair. And she was, the weight of decades pressing her into a floor that knew none of it as she stared at that spot. The ghost of flustered, shared laughter echoed in her ears. She could almost hear the quiet, nearly whispered, “I have enough space on my shoulders to carry one more worry, if you want to let go of it for a little while…”
A noise at her back, boots over loose stone and half-dried blood. Leliana didn't turn away. She should have, but at that moment she felt unbearably weary. Too much time had been lost that could never be regained, no matter what year she was in. Memories of dead women who still stood beside her, looking back and forth between the empty corner and Leliana’s dry eyes. Leliana opened her mouth, then let it fall shut. “Have I ever told you about that warden?” She croaked after several long moments.
“The one who died?” Amleda asked cautiously, and she had every right to, Leliana thought, not without irony.
“The very same. I saw-” Leliana's mouth twisted up at the corner in a poor imitation of a smile, or a laugh that never came. “Certain things remind me of her,” she said instead. “Sounds. Places. It is all too easy to…”
She'd almost said remember, but thankfully Amleda finished, “Imagine what happened? I know how that goes. Dangerous snare to go sticking your hand into, believe me. Start off trying to imagine what it had been like for them, if you could have stopped it somehow, and then it's fourteen years later and you've wasted more than half of your life trying to relive one day.”
Leliana’s throat tightened. Amleda was talking about her mother, Adaia Tabris. Adaia. Leliana was caught once again by another memory, this time of a red stripe etched across glittering eyes and down the angles of her cheeks, a hoarse, laughing voice promising to tell her children's children of what Leliana had done for her this night. A warm hand clasped around her wrist, in the way of warriors, and then she had been gone.
Leliana had never known if Adaia had kept that promise. Back when Amleda had been alive to ask, it had seemed too… self-serving to ask, as if she were trying to insert herself into a life that didn't need one more presumptive human, and then it had been too late.
Leliana closed her eyes, then opened them. “And, what do you do then?” She asked. Her voice wobbled traitorously, and she hated it in that moment. “When you've wasted your entire life looking backwards?”
Somehow, Amleda’s hand had found its way into Leliana’s gloved one, and there it stayed. Neither curling her closer or pulling away, and gradually Leliana relaxed. “You breathe,” was Amleda's quiet answer. “You get up and you breathe and you put one foot in front of the other until you can't do it anymore, and then you do it some more.”
“What if I can't? What if it stays with me all the days of my life?”
“Then you live for them, too. Get up and breathe and put one foot in front of the other, and if you can punch a pissant or four on your way down, then that's what has to happen. I certainly won't shed a tear.”
“How do you know?” Leliana was laughing all the same, and rugged free a questionable handkerchief to scrub at her eyes so she wouldn't have to look Amleda in the eyes.
“Because it's me,” Amleda said, and Leliana’s heart froze. “I carry my mother with me, the same way I carry Neleros and everyone who's come and gone from my life. Same way you do. We all carry our burdens. Mine just feel like an obligation. How about you?”
Leliana swallowed hard. In that moment, she wished for nothing more than a release from this conversation. “I hide,” she said in a voice that was so strained that it emerged as a rasp. “I seal the memories away in a box and bury it where no one, not even myself, will ever find it.”
A silence ensued. Amleda’s hand still curled loosely in her own, and Leliana couldn't bring herself to move for fear of Amleda pulling away, or turning into dust. Of none of this having been anything but the cruelest joke since the beginning. “I thought you said you were a storyteller.”
“I am.” Despite herself, Leliana turned a curious expression on Amleda, which was a mistake. Amleda was tired, streaked with soot and fluids best not thought on, but her eyes were fixed on Leliana, and she couldn't look away.
“Storytellers don't bury uncomfortable truths, do they? They remember the hard ones, too, the ones with barbs that rip and tear and hurt because sometimes hurt is what people need to realize they are still alive and able to fight and laugh and live. Battle cries from everyone who isn't alive to do it themselves. That's you. You wage war on their behalf, and you can't do that if you're too busy choking from swallowing your own secrets.”
Leliana stared at her until Amleda’s beautiful brown skin blurred in front of her. She let out a small, unwilling sound when Amleda wiped her tears away, and stood up on her tiptoes to kiss the corner of Leliana’s mouth. “Stick with me, we’ll get you remembering sunshine again,” Amleda promised. “That's what we do, right? We’re the heroes of this operation.”
second up is a bit of a thing for tma where gerry gets to meet his dad via even more time travel fuckery:
Gerry eased out a breath and drew in another that shook and rasped on the way down. "Look," he started to say, stopped, then tried again. "I'm not going to say that any of this bullshit equals out on some great cosmic abacus in the sky, but someone like you should have the chance to know that what you did mattered. And I don't know if I'm the one to do that. I never had the chance to know you."
Eric was quiet for several moments. "But you know yourself, right? You had the chance to learn who you are and who you wanted to be. That's what I want. Wanted, I guess."
"You're not listening." Something small and sharp and raw dug between his ribs and made his voice come out sounding odd to his own ears. He didn't know why he had this urge to make Eric understand, but he did. "I don't know if it was worth it. What's the point if small and petty people like her win and people like you lose?"
"You mean like us. But… you don't sound small and petty to me. You sound like someone who struggled and kept struggling but didn't stop trying, anyway. Hard to call a heart like that small." Eric fell silent again, his brow furrowing in thought. Then he added slowly, "I let her win, because I couldn't stop loving her. Seems like you beat me on both those counts."

Pumpkin Carving (Obey Me!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The guys want to try out pumpkin carving. How does it go?🎃
»Characters: Demon Bros+Dia, brief side characters as judges »Tags: Humor/Fluff, Bulleted Fic »Notes: Part of OM! Flufftober 2023 // reblogs are always loved & appreciated :3 // halloween divider by saradika!
Tumblr media
Lucifer: The Show Off™️
Decided to go for an intricate design for his pumpkin
He worked carefully & put his entire lucifussy in it
It was beautiful watching him work his magic he looked like he was creating a symphony
However his pumpkin looked like mush in the end
Everyone laughed. Everyone. Satan & Belphie the hardest.
Solomon: "...it looks great Lucifer. I can see the hard work you-"
"Don't patronize me."
Mammon: Macaroni Art Vibes™️
Complained saying the whole thing was lame but he got really into it
"Heh, look at the little guy!"
It actually looked really cute for his first pumpkin, it had a simple silly face!
Took photos with it only because "it's the type of thing you're suppose to do!"
The judges liked his very much & he came in 3rd place🙂
"...Ya so where's my reward!?"
Levi: Limited Edition Collector's Item 2023: Akuzon Fall Exclusive™️
Geeked out because he always wanted to carve a pumpkin! JUST LIKE ANIMES!
Of course he had a ruri chan stencil already made, he was waiting for this day
His pumpkin actually looked really good & made with love! He even added glowsticks to it!
However dun dun dun, tragedy struck!
He dropped it before he could show the judges
Poor baby cried his eyes out & you guys had to buy him his favorite milk tea
Satan: The Smashing Pumpkins™️ (please don't sue me, thanks!!!)
A little too good with a knife
Made the best intricate design out of everyone, it wowed the judges (& pissed off Lucifer)
Then he started punching & smashing it, completely obliterating it
Beel tried to eat the flying pieces that flew into the air
Delicately placed a pretty candle on top of the mush as the finishing touch
Solomon: "...You know what I like it."
He came in 2nd place!
Asmo: Bedazzled & Bright™️
"It screams 'I AM the now' you know!?"
I mean, he added jewels & even a mini light up disco ball inside
He carved his face into it & it projected his face onto a wall
some say they saw it reflect on the night sky like a hero signal
Was Luke's favorite because it looked fun & bright!
Note: his pumpkin got stolen off the HOL porch during the night.
Beel: Frankenstein Era™️
I know what you're thinking & no he didn't eat it 😐
(Everyone made sure he was well fed before doing the group activity)
His pumpkin looked the silliest, he added mini pumpkins to it & stacked them
Solomon: "What do you think would happen if we brought that thing to life?"
Barb: "Don't."
He did snack on the few pumpkin pieces that got carved out
...OK yeah he ate it all in the end but that was later!!! Leave him alone! He tried so hard!!!
Belphie: BANKSY™️
Didn't really want to participate but whatever brother Lucifer says, goes.
While everyone carved & decorated their pumpkin, he just napped on his like a pillow
Lucifer scolded him for doing nothing to his pumpkin
Belphie challenged him saying it was a work of art & up to interpretation
The judges 'ooo & ahh'd'
His pumpkin came in 1st place
LuciferGrindingHisTeeth.jpg
It's possible Lucifer chucked the pumpkin into oblivion when no one was looking
Diavolo: THE Pumpkin Face™️
"You can't beat the classics!"
Wanted to do a classic pumpkin face to keep human tradition! He appreciates human culture!
He took his time, stenciling was fun & cutting was a little rough
It got a little messy but he enjoyed it
The pumpkin ended up being a thing of nightmares but no one had the heart to tell him
(Barbatos cringing in the background)
Luke fainted at the sight. Dia naively took it as a sweet compliment

What if Branch’s born as a Rock Troll (but we start from the very beginning)
All right everybody, many of you talk about Rock Branch AU, but i didn't find the fanfic/headcanon post, which start it earlier than from TWT. So.... Just try to imagine Poppy's life without Branch. I had even few scripts: (prepare yourself for really long headcanon... Or fixanon? Anon? IDK, just Rock Branch AU XD)
Describetion is sometimes roughly short, I just wanted to share my ideas with you, not write a fanfic (but i would like to write it as fanfic, but it’s too big project to me. Feel free to take my ideas)
1. Poppy stays home
Bergen (Chef of course) kidnaps Snack Pack and Poppy wants to resque them. But King Peppy (as her father and still king) doesn't let her. There’s nobody who can go with her, so she has to stay home. Snack Pack dies obviously and whole Troll Village can't find good hide (there’s no bunker) so Peppy decides (after a little hesitation) to ask for help the nearest other genres trolls. And there are two option:
A) Classical music trolls
They're not happy to see pop trolls. After long disccusion Trollzart agrees to host them, but there's one condition - They have to be silent. They agree, because they're afraid of bergens much more than anywhen before. But after weeks without pop music they start humming and then even playing Classical music. They quickly become just Classical music nation.
After a few years Barb attacks them, but pop trolls are exstremally desperated to protect their New home. So with two strings and a significant number advantage, Pop and Classical music trolls win the battle. They let Techno trolls free and give them back their string. Pop Trolls are allowed to sing and play their music back. And then the three Royals start disccusion: What should they do with Rockers? Trollzart and Trollex agree to destroy their music and become them Classical Nation but Poppy doesn't feel good with that.
She decides to visit a prison. The prisoners yell at her and are really mean to her, especially Barb. But then she notices one troll who's just silent. She starts talking with him. He says that Rock World Tour wasn't good, it was just cruel and unjustice, so Rockers deserve their fate. He's also really kind. His name is Branch. Poppy, feeling really lonely after losing all of her friends, starts visiting prison every day and she and Branch become friends. Poppy starts fighting for giving Rockers New chance. Trollzart and Trollex aren't convinced about her idea, till one day Poppy shows them Branch. He bows and tells them what he told Poppy earlier. After that Royals agree on the solution: Pop and Rock trolls settle down Vulcano City as a United nation ruled by Pop trolls. Beside that, Rockers can't move out from the City for 5 years.
Rockers are kinda content with that. Even Barb, who lifes with her dad in a little cottage instead of her previous Villa, feels good not being Queen anymore. Royals keep in touch with each others and they start slowly trying to befriend with Country and Funk trolls. And also Branch and Poppy end up happily together.
B) Rock Trolls
Barb isn't Queen yet. Trash is still King and He's really open to Pop trolls, even if they're so different. First days are hard, but then Poppy and Barb become best friend and everything is ok. Bergens can't find them there.
One day Poppy meets Branch - He's amazed by her and she's amazed by him. They just want to know each other more, they starts meeting and after half year they become a couple. They're so happy with each others. Barb see it, she's a good Poppy friend and she doesn't want to be a Queen, not feeling good in it, she want to be free, so - She give her 'crown' Poppy and Branch. When they get married, they rule United nations of Pop and rock. They start Pop-Rock World Tour to meet and know other trolls' genres and offer them unite. HAPPY END
2. Poppy tries to be a hero good Queen.
Which means, Poppy doesn't obey her dad and goes to rescue her friend on her own. There are also two option:
A) No one rescues Poppy from spiders so they just eat her :D
But that's only beginning. Creek betrays trolls (there isn’t a cow bell, but there also isn’t the bunker), so every single pop trolls are eaten by bergens. Creek knows that if he stays with them, they'd eat him to, so he escapes. And then he lose himself on the huge desert.
But he doesn't die.
Funk trolls rescue him. He tells them about pop troll, but doesn't mention that they were eaten by bergens thanks to him. Funk trolls starts taking care of him, cause he's the last pop troll now and also he knew Cooper. So he tells them about Cooper a lot and they treat him like their precious son.
When Barb attacks them and she discovers the last pop troll, she forces Creek to show her the Pop string. But he doesn't know about it at all. So she forces him to guide Rockers to the Old Pop Village and then they start searching. And then Creek accidentally finds the string. He knows what Barb wants to do, so his conscience wakes up right now and he destroys the string and becomes gray (and also all pop subgenres, like kpop, become gray. Pop music just doesn't exist now).
And this is the moment when Branch appears. He's Barb's sword-arm. He always think that Trolls World Tour just isn't right but he just can't do anything with that til now. Now when he sees gray Creek with Broken string, he realizes that The Strings are destroyable. Now he has a hope. And now he isn't alone. He takes Creek and escapes far away.
But Creek doesn't feel like a hero. He's far from it: now he realizes how bad were things he did and he feels like he sucks once again, destroying pop string. Once, crying, he tells Branch everything about himself. But even hearing that Branch doesn't leave him alone. He comforts him by promice that if Creek helps him destroy rest of the strings, he would atone for his sins. Creek agrees and they starts making plans.
Meanwhile, Barb is just broken. Branch was the most trustful person in her life and she has a crush on him. His 'betrayal' really hurts her. She sends trollshunter after him, being sure that Branch just stole pop string.
Trollshunter finds Branch and Creek one by one and they just joins them. Beside Chaz, they had to 'arrest' him. Their become a rebellious gang and in suitable moment they just achieve their plan: they steal the guitar with the Strings and destroy them.
Every trolls are just shocked. Everyone just suddenly lose their colors and music, it isn't not a big rock concert, they just are in the huge prison in the Vulcano Rock City. Kpop trolls just switch on every single speaker that ever exists and there he is, a rock troll named Branch just goes in to the prison with a microphone. He starts singing "True Colors" to them - to the gray, unhopeful, sad trolls without their music. They starts smiling and joining him, one by one, they makes a choir, big perfect harmony. When Barb pop into the prison and she sees all prisoners and guards singing together in perfect harmony. She’s really touched. Branch turns around to her and hands her a mic. She finishes the song, singing "Like a rainbow" and smiling. After the song she hugs Branch and says to him 'thank you' so they make up. He hugs her back of course, also smiling.
This story ends kinda like an oryginal movie - all trolls life in harmony - beside that Creek is the only pop troll. He get married one of kpop troll girl and their offspring try to rebuild Pop trolls nation. And also Barb and Branch are happily together. YAAAAYYYY
B) My fav script - The Gray Poppy
So Poppy is more careful and spider doesn’t catch her. She arrives to Bergentown, sees Creek is eaten, rescues her friends, helps Bridget with King Gristle (but talk in the roller-skating rink goes really bad:( ), then Creek betrays them and whole trolls end up in the big bowl (pot? peck? dixie? XD) and they all become gray.
But no one sings a song. No one comforts Poppy, no one gives her a hope. There are just silence and darkness.
Bridget of course rescues them, but she doesn’t end up happily, cause trolls are just gray, scaried and sad, Poppy just doesn’t come back to rescue Bridget. She’s just too frightened. And also Bridget says bergens, she actually ate all trolls, so bergens... Well, do something terrible to her.
They come back to the Village. After year they all get back their colors, but Poppy’s stay a bit dull, cause she can’t forget about how she disappointed Bridget. When Barb sends them a message, Poppy takes Cooper, who wants to know trolls like him, and of course accidentally Biggie and mr Dinkles, and starts the trip. The story is kinda the same in Symphonyville and Lonesome Flats. It’s different when they drop into the river with Hickory. Cause No one rescues Poppy. She blacks out, hitting on a stone, and almost sinks. The rapidity get her far from her friends and far from Lonesome Flats and throws her on the bank, where Chaz finds her.
 Chaz brings her to Barb and she imprisons Poppy. She also give them the most trustful Rock Troll as a guard - her sword-arm, Branch. Barb doesn’t know where is the pop string and Poppy doesn’t want to her her, that she has it in her hair, so Barb treatens that she’ll hurt pop trolls and then leaves the prison to attack Funk trolls and Pop Village. Poppy, seeing that she sucks once again as a queen and as a friend, loses her colors. Branch sees it and feels pity for her. He asks her why she’s so sad and she tells him whole story of her life and pours out her heart. Branch suddenly realizes that Rock World Tour isn’t as good as he thought. He let Poppy free, but she says she doesn’t go anywhere without him. She doesn’t want to leave her saviour once again (like Bridget before). So he disguises her as a Rock Troll and they escape together. Poppy’s desperated to rescue her friends, but Branch takes her into hiding in the safety place and then making a plan how to rescue them.
So there they are, hiding in the forest, with a pop string, when hunters are looking for them. Poppy is just broken and Branch comforts her a lot. He just can’t stand seeing her so sad, so one day, when she ‘s really unhopeful, he takes the string with anger and yells that everything is just because of them (The Strings). And He destroys it. Poppy’s shocked. She takes the rest of the string into her hand and looks at it sadly, when Branch realizes what he’s done and starts apologizes her. But then she just looks up at him and says: “You’re right. We have to destroy them!” He blinks and smiles when she hugs him tightly saying “thank you”.
Ok. Enough details.
They sneaks to the Volcano City and destroys the Strings. The end :D
Nah, I’m joking. they takes the mic and there is the same scene like at the end of the previous script, but this time Poppy and Branch sing together starting from “True colors” and then get to “Just Sing”. Poppy gets back her colors and there is a scene like she turns to Branch, smiles and starts talking how grateful she is for everything he did for her and then he just interrupts her, kissing her.
C) Rebel Branch
 I didn’t want to write this script firstly, cause it’s known and appears very often in fanfics, but... It’s also one of the option and i like it and I like write so i’m gonna write my own version of this well-known script.
It’s kinda really similar to previous to the point when Poppy gets the message from Barb. She just decides to obey her dad and the whole pop village hide deep in the forest. But Barb finds them regardless :D
So they all are captive and Branch again is the guard, the most trustful Rock Troll, Barb’s sword-arm et cetera. He sees Poppy losing her colors completely, he asks, she talks and cries, pouring out her heart. But this time is much too late - the big rock concert, where every Barb wants to turn every trolls into a rock zombie, just starts. So what does Branch do? He puts hand into Poppy’s cage and dries her tears. He smiles at her and then he just goes out of the prison (Hearing Poppy’s quiet voice “Branch?” behind him). He just walks on the stage. No one expects nothing weird from him, so when he stands next to Barb, she just hands him the guitar with the Strings with excitedly grin and yells at him “You went in the time! Play with us!”. He smiles, get the guitar and then just destroys it. 
Everyone’s shocked. What just happened? Everything just loses its colors. Barb yells at Branch “What are you doing, man?!”, but it’s just too late. Everyone’s just confused, even Branch. Only Poppy smiles in her cage. And then she starts singing. I think this time “This little light of mine” or “Don’t you worry ‘bout a thing”. And then Branch looks up at her and she smiles at him. King Trash starts playing a music and Branch joins to the song with Poppy. And then everybody join. Hurray!
Everyone befriends with everyone. Poppy thanks Branch, they starts talking more and meeting each other and ya know. Slow-growing relationship.
Yes, they get married at the end, I swear.
Okay, That’s the end, i swear. If you like one of this idea and want to draw it/turn it into a fanfic, but take it. Feel free to use it. But please, tag me, i wanna read it
Thank you for you attention :D

The Hand
A little fic that has absolutely no point to it. Enjoy!
~~~~
“Don’t tell me this place is seriously called the Crack Pot Inn…” The Knight of the rag-tag group of Heroes, Warrior, muttered aloud when his gaze landed on the most-welcome, if somewhat run-down, inn. The Links had warped into another world and were now working to uncover whose Hyrule they had entered. 
So far, no luck. 
But seeing as it was late into the night, Time had decided it was time to retire. It was by a meager stroke of luck Wolfie had sniffed out a village. 
“Clearly not the only thing on crack,” Came Legend’s quick-witted reply. 
Wild smothered a snort. The snarky Hero was filled to the brim with sarcastic retorts and barbed jabs. He never failed to use them, either. They were quick to fly from his tongue, taking, perhaps, .1 seconds to fire. 
They came faster than Wild could unleash a flurry of attacks, and that, he found impressive. 
“Boys, behave,” The leader of the nine murmured, his low voice carrying into the night. 
“Sure thing, Pops,” 
Wolfie huffed. Wind figured it was a laugh in disguise. They followed after Time as he began the descent into the village located at the bottom of the hill. Their eyes took in everything of the quiet and slumbering place...
The worn buildings, cobblestone roads, dark alleyways, and bright colors. 
Incredibly bright colors. Curtains were a shade of pinks, purples, blues, and oranges Hyrule had never before seen and wondered how anyone could find attractive. The paint job was something that made even Wild cringe. 
Some houses had polka dots, others multi-colored stripes, and some littered with swirls and optical illusions. The patterns were horrendous. He looked long and hard for any potion shops and places to restock. It was a difficult feat, since the abhorrent color combinations were making his eyes hurt. 
“The Batty Emporium?” Wind’s soft, incredulous, voice pierced the silence that had fallen. 
Legend looked vaguely impressed. 
“This place just keeps getting better.” 
Time quirked an eyebrow at the...questionable village and its peculiar taste in style. The sheer lavishness and overabundance of decoration… 
“In all my long life and journeys, I have never stumbled across such a remarkably horrendous sight…” He remarked mostly to himself. All of the Links heard him and couldn’t agree more. 
You’re telling me… Twilight groused in wolf form. And he’d thought Fyer and Falbi were...unique individuals…
That was putting it lightly. 
There were streamers tied pole-to-pole. Straight across, zig-zag, diagonal or in some other unusual unrecognizable design. Elaborate and exaggerated posters decorated windows, market stalls, and doors. The stalls themselves were bright and sparkly. A never-ending stream of cringeworthy sights for the Links to abhor. 
Then came the game, commenced by Wild and continued by the rest. Find the most outrageous, individualistic, and… unique… business. 
“The Nutty Almond,” The Hero of the Wilds pointed at the sign hanging from above the door of the nearest building. 
Sky hid a grin. Of course Wild spotted The Nutty Almond first. 
“The Berserker,” Wind piped in next, gesturing to an armory they passed. The weapons on display glinted in the moonlight, drawing everyone’s attention for a brief moment. 
“Clever,” Warrior deadpanned, though he made note of its location. 
“Daffy’s Wud?” Hyrule’s brow creased at the strange name. The place itself was tall and lean, as if someone had taken the building and crammed it between two others. It was a pale purple with fluorescent pink and blotches of orange, green, and yellow mingled in. 
All and all, a discomfiting sight to see. Legend couldn’t help but release a short bark of laughter.
Sky looked around with a pained and disturbed expression. This place was far too happy-go-lucky for his tastes. He preferred the wilderness over this! 
“This whole place is mad!” The words slipped from him before Sky could stop himself and the Links turned to him in surprise. Sky’s cheeks burned a brilliant shade of red and he hid his face behind his hands, “Sorry, sorry, it just came out!” He apologized, flustered and mortified. 
Four chuckled with a shake of his head, patting Sky’s back sympathetically. The older teen peeked down at him between fingers. 
“We were all thinking it anyway, Sky,” He assured the kindhearted Hero, “No need to be embarrassed for stating the truth.” 
Hyrule shuddered, loosely hugging himself. 
“Well, I don’t like it,” He admitted in a soft whisper, “It weirds me out.” 
“It weirds us all out,” Warrior muttered, lips curling back in disgust when he saw another intricately designed and flamboyant painting hanging in a display window, “Hylia’s sake...I never imagined such a place even existed.” 
“These bright, flashy, colors make my eyes hurt,” Wind complained, rubbing at his aching eyes. 
“Oh, good!” Wild breathed a sigh of relief, “I’m not the only one!” Although it was night, Wild still found himself squinting against the onslaught of flashy, neon, colors. The moonlight reflecting off the bright colors and sparkling stalls did nothing but blind them. 
Did they have to use glow-in-the-dark paint? Not to mention the optical illusions were a little over the top and giving him a pounding headache. 
“Can you imagine how it must look when its sunny?” Hyrule questioned, wincing at the thought. 
Legend’s face screwed up, 
“You’re going to make me sick.”
“I already am…” 
“Yeah, you definitely aren’t looking too good there, Sky,” Warrior gently gripped Sky’s arm when the teen started turning green, “Let’s hurry on up to that inn there.” 
“We’re staying there?” Legend didn’t possibly think this night could get any worse. 
Time turned to the incredulous Hero with a raised eyebrow, “Do you have any better ideas?” 
Wind timidly raised a hand, “We camp in the woods?” 
None could deny the hopefulness in his tone. It was preferable. None of the Links would object, all more than willing to choose the cold, ominous, woods over this...fascinating place. 
Four flicked his wrist, pointing to Wind and helpfully supplied, “It’s free of charge.” 
“Even Warrior has better taste than this,” Legend declared with certainty. Said offended Knight snapped his head in Legend’s direction, indignantly crying, 
“Hey!” 
Time rolled his good eye, the corner of his lips twitching upwards minutely. Already, he could sense the coming storm, 
“What?” Legend bent his arms at the elbow, palms up, “You have to admit, the scarf-” 
“Oh, and a skirt’s so much better than my scarf?” Warrior snarked back, “At least it covers up more than yours does.” He tugged at his scarf meaningfully. 
“What’s that supposed to mean?!” 
Four turned to disguise his mirth as a cough. His shoulders shook as he vainly attempted to recompose himself. Hyrule laughed to himself, Wild snickered, and Wind tried his hardest not to giggle.
“Boys,” Time warned, but the laughter in his voice ruined the effect. Truly, never a dull moment. Not one day passed them by without some sort of entertainment. “Lower your voices,” At the least. 
Legend obeyed the leader, lowering his voice threateningly, 
“I will kill you, Warrior,” He promised, eyes glinting sharply. 
Warrior smirked, nonchalantly tossing an arm over Legend’s shoulder, “Sure you will.”  Legend bared his teeth, fists clenched, “You’d better sleep with one eye open tonight, Pretty Boy,” 
Time shook his head in fond exasperation, mentally noting not to assign the two Heroes to the same room. He paused before the door to the inn, extending a hand to rest it atop the illustrious handle. He turned to fix the Heroes with a stern, pointed, look before carefully pushing the door open. 
The Links could only hope the inside was better looking than the outside...
The tallest of the group had barely taken a step when a shrill screech squealed from above. Time’s head snapped up and his vision went black as a weight slammed atop his head and water soaked him to the bone. 
Behind him, he heard Sky yelp followed by a thump. 
Wolfie was immediately on guard, crouching low to the ground with a fearsome snarl that ricocheted through the air, enveloping the entirety of the room. 
Warrior’s hand instinctively snatched his sword, slipping it halfway out of its sheath ready to jump to Time’s protection. His fierce and focused expression slowly faded, morphing into one of pure bafflement as he and the others took the time to process what exactly had taken place. 
Time stood in the middle of the doorway, a metal bucket covering his head, and fingers loosely curled round the handle. Water saturated his hair, dripping from the ends and onto the wooden planks below. Rivulets raced through the patterns of his golden armor, creating a multitude of puddles on the floor. 
Legend blinked owlishly. 
He slowly raised a finger, 
“Did you- did we…” He shook his head, “Did we just get pranked?” 
Time serenely shut his good eye, expelling a steady breath before reaching up to lift the bucket off his head. He looked to find a string attached to it and at the end of it, a rubber cucco with bulging eyes and a gaping yellow beak. 
He tugged it off with an unappreciative frown. His good eye slid down to where Wolfie was still baring his teeth and rumbling deep in his chest. He tossed the rubber cucco, letting it bounce off Wolfie’s snout then onto the floor. Wolfie’s snarl shuddered and broke off in surprise and he raised cobalt blues swimming with betrayal up to meet Time’s faintly amused one. 
With a disgruntled rumble, Wolfie lifted a paw and rubbed at his snout indignantly. 
“Ooooh hoo hoo!” A sudden burst of overly amused, entirely-too-enthusiastic laughter exploded somewhere ahead of them and the Heroes jumped slightly at the unexpected sound. A short, stocky, man dressed in the most bizarre outfit possible stepped into the lamplight, clapping his hands loudly together. His green eyes were wide, brimming with unshed tears, and his face lit up with delight, “I have been waiting for this moment! I had that set up since evening!” 
Time leveled the obnoxiously red-haired man with a cool stare- one Warrior, Legend, and Wild recognized and still shirked from. For once, however, it wasn’t directed towards them. 
The man was hardly affected, “You must admit-” He swiped at a tear, beaming brilliantly, “That was plenty good!”  “Indeed,” A tight-lipped smile curved Time’s lips and his single eye became a pool of promises for retribution he would be unable to attain. The Older Hero was only becoming increasingly unsettled the longer they lingered in this abominable place. 
The man slapped his knee, still guffawing at Time’s misfortune, and Wolfie growled in warning. This caused the innkeeper to pause, appraise the proud, displeased, beast and frown. 
“Ah, I must apologize,” He jovially began with an air of faux-politeness, gesturing to Wolfie airily, he said, “Dogs are not allowed in the inn.” 
DOG?!
A scandalized yip escaped Wolfie and Sky lunged when the wolf made to show the innkeeper exactly what this ‘dog’ was capable of.  “Hey there, now, Wolfie,” Sky strained, arms wrapped around Wolfie’s strong neck and anchoring him into place. Time merely watched the scene unfold, heaving a tired sigh. It had most certainly been a long week. Not the longest, but a long one for certain. 
Everyone was at their wit’s end and exhausted. 
“That dog is a wolf, good sir,” Warrior calmly but firmly inserted, stepping up to Time’s side. The innkeeper looked to him and Warrior fought to steel himself from cringing. The man’s outfit was utterly outrageous. His incredibly yellow pants ballooned near the ankles and his sleeves billowed atrociously around the wrists. There were colorful polka dots littering his...suit? Warrior was unsure whether or not this peculiar outfit had a name. The buttons on the shirt were much too large and oddly shaped to be normal. And the high collar? 
He’d thought Agitha and Ravio were eccentric, but this was by far the worst Warrior had ever seen. 
“He is well-trained and my good friend’s loyal companion,” The Knight indicated to a strained Wild. 
The innkeeper raised a bushy eyebrow at the grumbling canine still held by Sky. The wolf reluctantly settled back on his haunches, but he still looked ready to tear everything to pieces. 
“Well-trained, hm?” There was a hint of a challenge in his tone. It was evident he didn’t believe them. 
Wild nodded vigorously from where he stood beside Warrior, 
“He is! Watch-” To which the mischievous Hero spun on his heel and proceeded to order, “Down boy!” 
If looks could kill, the one Wolfie seared Wild with would most definitely have incinerated him on the spot. 
Twilight would make him pay for it later, but Wild figured it would be worth it. 
With much grousing and griping, Wolfie made a show of reluctantly lowering himself onto the ground. He shifted until he was comfortable then cracked an eye open to pierce Wild unhappily, 
“Roll over!” 
Wolfie’s eye grew wide and he barked sharply in refusal. 
Wild sternly placed his hands on his hips and tapped his foot once,  “Roll over, Wolfie.” 
Wolfie did. 
“Yay, Wolfie!” Wind lunged and tackled the great beast with a hug, “You’re amazing!” Peals of pure, jubilant, laughter filled the air as Wind turned sparkling eyes at the innkeeper, “Isn’t he?” 
The tone the youthful boy used was carefully constructed, almost daring the innkeeper to say otherwise. All in all, rather frightening to hear. Legend was, to say the least, impressed. 
Wolfie’s previously irate demeanor deflated almost instantaneously at the Sailor’s bubbly self and he nudged Wind’s cheek with his nose. 
Children would always be his weakness, he supposed. 
The flamboyant innkeeper only shrugged, voice chipper and gratingly cheerful,  “So long as he doesn’t cause any trouble, I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to allow him to accompany you.” 
“We thank you for your trouble,” Warrior graciously intervened before anyone else could, “After all, it is the least you could do to compensate for the stunt you previously pulled.” 
The short man floundered for a second, waving his hands wildly in the air that it blatantly reminded Warrior and Legend of Ravio, 
“Stunt?! That, my boy, was a masterpiece! An ingenious idea executed by yours truly! A brilliant mastermind!” 
Wild eyed the deranged man uneasily. While accustomed to meeting outlandish, whimsical, and freakish people, the Hero was not at all fond of the village or the innkeeper. If everyone in the village were this...quirky, he wasn’t sure how he would survive.
He turned, not wanting to risk staying and discovering just how odd this village and its villagers could be, and made for the door. “I’m leaving. There are plenty of good trees outside to choose from-” But he didn’t get far when Warrior grasped the collar of his tunic and tugged him back, 
“If we have to suffer, then you have to suffer,” The Knight groused goodnaturedly. Wild shot him a disturbed look,  “You’re going to make us stay here?” He whispered, almost pleading with Warrior to say no. 
In the background, Hyrule was bartering with the innkeeper, slowly but surely lowering the equally preposterous prices for their rooms.
“There’s a storm coming,” Warrior returned, lowering his voice in the same manner as Wild, “And from what you observed earlier, it’s going to be a bad one, so yes,” He nodded solemnly and with a slight grimace, “We’re stuck here for the night.” 
Wild could only sigh and stare longingly at the door splattered with paint and other haphazard decorations. 
~~~~
“A dog,” Twilight growled under his breath as he followed Time to their rooms, “Of all things, a dog?” 
Time smothered a smile. Truly, nothing dug under Twilight’s skin more than being mistaken for a dog. 
“Come now, Twi,” Wild interjected, lips twitching and laughter lacing his word, “It could be worse-” He attempted to appease the older teen when Twilight rounded on him with an intense stare that promised recompense,  “And you-”  Wild chuckled, a full-blown smile still visible for all to see. 
“Before you say anything, I was saving your hide!” 
“Down boy?” 
Wild could only shrug, a hand cupping the back of his neck. 
“Roll over?!” 
“I had to play it off!” Wild defended himself with a laugh that would melt anyone’s heart. 
“And you did so wonderfully,” Time assured him, much to Twilight’s dismay. His descendant’s jaw dropped before he collected himself with a stubborn shake, 
“What? Old Man-” 
Time planted a hand on Twilight’s head, disheveling his hair teasingly, “The innkeeper allowed you in, didn’t he?” 
“Even if he hadn’t, I would have found a way in,” Twilight muttered unhappily, glowering at the far end of the hallway. The rest of the Heroes ambled after them, a safe distance away so neither of them would uncover the truth of Wolfie, “If there is one thing we Links are known for, it’s for entering without invitation.” 
“Then people should lock their doors,” Wild suggested without an ounce of remorse. The amount of times he’d simply walked into people’s homes was innumerable. 
“Perhaps,” Time murmured, shutting his eye against the atrocity of the paintings and decor of the corridor and listening to the whispering of Warrior, Legend, and Sky. 
The draperies were a variety of blinding colors- some Time wondered how they succeeded in making. 
“My headache is getting worse from this ghastly place,” Legend groaned, cradling his aching head. Sky was rubbing at his eyes, opening them into slits. He couldn’t physically bring himself to open them any wider. 
“Stupid storm,” Wind grumped, crossing his arms with a pout, “Why did it have to come now?” 
“With any luck, it’ll breeze right on by within a couple of hours,” Warrior hummed, glancing out the nearest window. Already, lightning was webbing across the dark expanse of the sky, illuminating the village below. 
Wind perked up, “Does that mean we can leave afterwards?” 
“Unfortunately, no,” 
“Aw...” 
“Don’t worry, bud, it’ll be morning before we know it,” Warrior said reassuringly, and Time could not deny the hopefulness in his tone. 
“I hope so,” Came Hyrule’s quiet voice. Their group slowed when the three Heroes ahead of them came to a stop. 
“Here we are,” Time announced, stopping in front of their given rooms, “We booked three for the night. Split accordingly.” 
The Links did as they were told almost instinctively. Time, Twi, and Wild were in one, with Warrior, Sky, and Legend in another, then Hyrule, Four, and Wind. 
Time nodded approvingly, tossing a set of keys to Warrior and Hyrule. Warrior caught it with ease, but unfortunately for Hyrule, they sprung off his hands and began their descent to the ground. He scrambled frantically to keep them from clattering on the wood, fearing he’d disturb any sleeping guests and snatched at air in a desperate attempt to catch them. 
He breathed a sigh of relief when the key ring miraculously slipped onto his finger, sweat beading his forehead. Immediately afterwards, Hyrule shoved them into Four’s hand, unwilling to keep the keys longer than necessary. 
Time sent him an apologetic look, to which Hyrule responded with a timid smile and wave of his hand. His poor face burned, red dusting his cheeks from the embarrassing display. 
“We leave at seven and no later,” The leader informed the group. He received varying affirmative responses before they broke apart and disappeared into their selected rooms. 
Wild’s eyes immediately lit up once his gaze landed on the most welcome sight in the entirety of the world- a bed. 
Ugly comforter and equally hideous pillowcases aside, it was the greatest gift Wild could ask for. 
Behind him, Twilight made a noise of frustration. 
“Polka dots...Can’t escape them,” 
Time snorted softly. 
“I’m afraid not.” 
Of the three beds, the only agreeable one was the green in the center. It was a deep, earthy, tone with dark blue polka dots and white sheets. Not too horrible. Time and Wild silently elected to give Twilight that bed. 
The first was an extraordinarily faded red- bordering on pink- with bright orange polka dots and the third was a sunny yellow with orange, red, green, blue, and purple polka dots littered about the fluffy comforter. 
What was with this place? 
“I’ll take the one of the far end,” Wild piped up, breaking the contemplative silence that had fallen o’er their Leader as he attempted to choose between the lesser of two evils. 
Time turned to fix Wild with a raised eyebrow, “Are you sure?” 
Wild nodded with a small grin, “I’ve seen worse than an ugly, yellow, polka-dotted bed, Time. This will be nothing compared to what I’ve faced.” This earned him an affectionate pat on the shoulder. 
“Then that leaves me with the first,” 
Twilight looked between them, “Leaves you with..? I haven’t chosen..?” 
Time walked past the confused Ordonian, knocking him lightly on the head with his fist, 
“We chose for you, Pup,” He said by way of explaining. Well, Twilight wouldn’t complain. He wandered to his bed, reaching down to grasp the edge of the comforter tucked underneath the overstuffed pillow. He tugged, but the comforter refused to budge. 
Twilight heaved a silent sigh of exasperation and annoyance. 
“I hate this place...” He muttered darkly, yanking with all his might and ripping the comforter free. Time and Wild had already rid themselves of their weapons and packs, setting them aside with care. Twilight threw his own pack on the ground without a thought but couldn’t bring himself to change out of his tunic. He could care less if he slept in it. 
He was about to crawl in and curl up when a muffled, startled shout filtered through the thick walls followed by a painful thump! 
Time, Wild, and Twilight leaped to their feet, instinctively reaching for their weapons when an aggravated and alarmed voice hollered,  “Why is there a CUCCO in my bed?!” 
A short, huff of laughter escaped Wild before the teen attempted to stifle it. 
“Where did it even come from?! Warrior, get rid of it!” 
There was an indignant squawk that followed Legend’s exclamation. 
“I am not going anywhere NEAR that thing, Legend! You’re on your own with this one!” 
Time lifted a hand to his mouth to smother his laughter. Warrior’s voice had come from farther away, telling them the Captain had scrambled a safe distance away from their unwelcome guest. 
“Sky!” Two identical calls were issued soon afterwards, “You love these things! Why don’t you get it?” 
There was a softer, drowsier sound the Heroes knew to be Sky calmly talking to the paranoid Heroes rooming with him. Time imagined him gently coaxing the Cucco from Legend’s bed and offering his own. 
After a few moments had passed, the excitement died down and Time figured it was safe to try and get some sleep before they left in a few hours. Thankfully, they didn’t have a surprise Cucco in their room...
At least, Time thought as he settled into his bed and drew the covers past his shoulders, he hoped there wasn’t. 
~~~~
Hyrule expelled a forlorn sigh from where he sat against the headboard of his bed, knees drawn to his chest. He wrapped his arms around his legs, dark eyes flitting from a slumbering Wind to a sleeping Four. 
He could tell from their constant shifting and moving that neither of his companions were resting well. 
It was impossible to in this awful place. 
Hyrule himself couldn’t bring himself to try and sleep. The reason? Because of the huge, wide-open, eye painted on the ceiling that looked capable of peering through one’s very soul and ensnaring it. 
Just thinking about it made him shudder. 
He tried his hardest not to look at it, but it was difficult not to! His eyes would instinctively snap up to peek at it then flit away. He couldn’t shake the feeling that the eye was looking right at him. 
Not to mention that he needed to use the restroom badly. He jostled his foot, the mattress vibrating from the motion. Was it worth the risk of leaving the safety of this room to endure the ghastly and horrific sight he knew lingered in the hallways? 
He sighed again, raking a hand through his hair and frowned. He might as well. He really did have to go. 
Without giving himself a chance for second thoughts, Hyrule swiftly slipped from his bed and crossed the room to the door in record time. He turned the knob as silently as he could, cracking the door open slowly to ensure it didn’t creak and the wood didn’t croak beneath his feet. 
He shut it behind him and turned to head down the corridor to where he knew the bathroom for this floor was located. He refrained from looking anywhere but the planks in front of him, counting his steps out of sheer boredom and a feeble attempt to distract himself from the atrocities surrounding him. 
Before he knew it, he was standing before the bathroom door that had the largest possible handle he’d ever seen. 
This was sure to become one of the most memorable time of his life- and not for any good or sentimental reasons. 
The handle, Hyrule unnervingly found, resembled a tormented face with features contorted in pain, the handle for the nose, and mouth gaping open in a silent scream. 
Not at all ominous... 
Hyrule shut his eyes against it and extended a hand blindly to grasp at the knob and turn it. He heard an eerie groan as he pushed against the wood and slipped inside. 
Releasing the breath he’d been holding, Hyrule tiredly clicked the door shut and dragged a sleeve across his forehead. 
He wished they could leave this dreaded place. How anyone could sleep here was beyond him! 
He supposed it could be worse and made to turn around when he heard the sound of nails clawing against wood, racing upwards and when he turned, heart leaping into his throat, he watched with disbelieving eyes as a ghostly white apparition came shooting out from the toilet. 
“Paaaaaaaaper....paaaaaapeeeerrrr....” 
Hyrule had never shrieked so shrilly in his entire life. 
~~~~ 
A rumbling boom reverberated throughout the inn. 
“Hyrule!” 
The Heroes burst from their assigned rooms and into the hallway, weapons drawn and expressions fierce. They were ready to storm to Hyrule’s aid, worry clawing its way to their hearts and sudden protectiveness taking root. 
Whoever had threatened or frightened Hyrule would pay severely for their heinous crime. 
An earthy green and brown blur dashed past Warrior and at Time, slamming into the leader and revealing itself to be a breathless and traumatized Hyrule. 
Time instinctively caught him, demanding at once, 
“What is it, Hyrule?” 
Hyrule never once loosened his grip on Time, turning slightly to point down the corridor to say, 
“Hand!” He breathlessly managed, all too relieved to be with his companions, “Ghost hand in the toilet!” 
Sky perked up curiously, “Peoni?” 
At the same time, Legend and Time also uttered names the Heroes didn’t recognize, 
“Hand?” 
“???” 
“Ghost hand?” Warrior quirked an eyebrow, turning to peer down towards the bathroom. He blinked and whistled lowly, “What’s with the smoke?” 
The area the bathroom was in was in shambles. Splintered wood, scorched planks, and ruptured flooring covered with water told Warrior the restroom was no longer usable. 
Hyrule chuckled a bit nervously, standing behind Time and peeking around him, “It popped out from the toilet and scared me so badly I might’ve...instinctively lashed out with a magic attack?” 
“Was that what the explosion was?” Wind piped up from beside Warrior, resting on his sword and relaxing since he knew there was no imminent danger. 
“Magic attack?” Four curiously repeated. 
Hyrule didn’t hear their questions and instead looked up at Time timidly, “Can we please leave this awful place, Time?” 
He’d had enough. Monsters he could do. Mobs of them? No problem. Ghosts- especially a ghost hand that apparently lives in a toilet? That was pushing it. 
Time glanced down at him. Unable to withstand the pitiful look the younger Hero was pulling, Time sighed and ruffled his hair.
“We might as well, or we’ll end up paying for repairs.” 
The others cheered. 
“Oh thank goodness!” Legend breathed a sigh of relief, immediately disappearing into his room and tossing out his, Warrior, and Sky’s belongings, “Let’s hurry up and go then!” 
Wind and Wild dashed into their own to do the same, shoving packs into Twilight, Time, and Four’s hands. 
“We’ve got everything!” Wild cheerfully declared, tossing his bag over his shoulder, “Let’s get outta here!” 
“What in tarnation..!” A voice cried out from behind them. 
Time’s eye marginally widened as the Heroes started and whipped their heads ‘round to find a shocked and fuming innkeeper standing behind them. 
Warrior was the first to recover, barking out an order the Links didn’t hesitate to execute, 
“Run!”
