Terrifyingly Bad
JayVik x Reader | 2.3K | SFW
Warning/Tags: Modern AU, really terrible haunted houses, mentions of nipples, pre-relationship (though the reader is simping immensely). Technically Jinx, Ekko, and Sevika all make appearances briefly.
This has got to be the worst haunted house you and Viktor have ever seen. Jayce is scared shitless.
A/N: Last Halloween fic of the season, and it’s even still Halloween while posting!
This is just some haunted house misadventures, a little bit of shenanigans to round off the holiday. Loosely edited and only for a bit of fun.
Thanks to @dicax-asina and @valaruakars for encouraging my silly meter. Enjoy, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
—
Viktor’s ancient Volvo creaks into the lot to pick you up, swept in with a chilly autumn breeze that ruffles through your clothes.
You open the door to hop into the back seat with Jayce out of habit, because Viktor’s front seat is always covered in textbooks and an obscene amount of empty energy drink cans. Sitting atop the pile is your cardigan – you’d forgotten it last time he’d given you a ride home.
“Happy Halloween,” Viktor tosses over his shoulder, the Ghostbusters theme playing quietly on the radio.
“Looking good, (Y/n),” Jayce says. He’s got a big grin on, peering over your costume.
You hover for a moment, leaned over at the threshold for the door.
Because, to your delight, they were both dressed up.
You honestly weren’t sure if either of them were going to. Midterms had sucked every ounce of fun out of your campus this month, and though they were finally drawing to a close, Jayce and Viktor were still busy with grad work.
It warms your heart, that they’d matched your Halloween energy.
To be fair, Viktor’s costume seems to consist of a lab coat yanked from the spare closet in the science department’s storeroom. At least he’d taken time to stain it, for spooky effect, though the “bloodstains” look suspiciously like the strawberry jam you’d seen him spreading on toast when you’d left the lab the night prior.
You cock your head to the side. “What exactly are you supposed to be? Mad scientist?”
“Victor Frankenstein, obviously.”
It is not obvious.
The fact that he himself is an overworked scientist carries 90% of the convincingness of his costume, to be honest. It is regrettably charming, you have to acquiesce, how ruffled his hair is, the familiar urge to press kisses to his eyelids and love away the bags underneath them creeping up as you give him an amused thumbs up. Even if he looks pretty much like he always does.
But you don’t fault him for the low effort. His research paper into the sustainable energy possibilities for specialized prosthetics is due in less than a week, now. You were just grateful he’d carved out some time to spend with you and Jayce at all.
Jayce, on the other hand…
Well, he’s shirtless, for one. Despite the steeply falling temperatures. And wearing puppy ears, to match the puppy eyeliner that was all the rage over summer.
It does really bring out his eyes, you think, far more distracted by the collar wrapped snug around his neck.
“I’m a dog,” he provides helpfully, despite his costume being far more obvious than Vik’s. The smile he gives is crooked and earnest, wrapped up in a sweet excitement for the holiday. “What do you think?”
If he actually had a tail, it would be wagging.
Had he included that?
If so, it’s not very apparent, and you tactfully turn your eyes away from your friend’s lap before you get yourself into trouble.
“It’s, uh, very good! You nailed it,” you assure him, sliding into the bench seat and fumbling to buckle your seatbelt when Viktor raises a brow at you in the rearview mirror.
The car is small, so as you lurch into motion, Jayce’s arm has no room to rest anywhere except pressed against your own.
—
The drive is thankfully short.
Jayce has to duck to slide out of the tiny car, and you rest your hand atop his head to make sure he doesn’t bump it.
His hair is soft – he must have switched to mousse for the night, a few strands falling charmingly into his eyes. Unconsciously, you can’t help but card your fingers through it a bit, strands sliding silky and pleasant against your hand.
The grin Jayce gives you once he straightens up is dazzling.
“Thanks,” he says, taking your hand to give it a little squeeze.
You can feel a bashful grin tugging at the corner of your lips, but you turn away to buy tickets, leading your friends up to the annual drama department haunted house.
But once you get there, you have to pause.
The scariest thing about this haunted house is the fact that it looks like it’s going to collapse on top of you if you enter it.
There’s a big sign out front, proclaiming that organization had been left to the underclassmen this year, unlike years prior.
Seemingly mostly constructed of cardboard held together by duct tape, which hadn’t fared well in the rain, the haunt provides… not much confidence that it will be particularly terrifying.
You wouldn’t believe it, by the way Jayce was worrying his lip just looking at the entrance.
“Stop that,” you chide gently, “You’re going to get all chapped.”
Viktor nods sagely, tapping at his own lips in evidence, and you roll your eyes, rummaging your pockets in search of your own tube of chapstick.
“You’re both hopeless at taking care of yourselves, you know.” You point the chapstick accusingly at him, relying on aggressive caretaking to cover up how your mind is racing slightly, at the thought of indirect kisses.
Viktor stares at it with wide eyes when you offer it up. His hands are slow to take it, and if you’re not mistaken, his eyes are less on yours and more on your lips.
He applies some balm without complaint, though. Smacks his lips thoughtfully. “... Strawberry.”
“I’ll pick you up some, if you like that one.”
“No need. I’ll settle for stealing yours when I need it.”
Jayce leans in, eyes sparkling opportunistically. “I, uh, am feeling a little chapped actually –”
“I know for a fact that you carry lip balm around. I’ve seen it.”
You don’t go the extra mile of pointing out that his pants are so tight you know the shape of everything he’s carrying in his pockets. Among other things.
Jayce pouts, but you’re already reeling from the fact that Viktor’s lips are now marked with your own. No need to add further fuel to the fire.
It’s only made worse as Viktor’s tongue peeks out, just briefly, over his bottom lip as you all walk inside the haunt, not looking at you with cheeks stained pink.
—
“It’s kinda cold in here,” Jayce whispers anxiously, arms wrapped tight around your left bicep.
He's right, the inside of the haunt is barely any warmer than it had been outside in the cool October air, but you're having trouble focusing on the chill.
It's frazzling, the sheer heat radiating from his chest, pressed enticingly to your arm. It seeps through the fabric of your sleeve, into your brain, a radiating mantra of close, close, close.
A ghoul of some sort pops out, made of cardboard and paint, and Jayce is suddenly infinitely closer, your arm nested up against his firm pecs and –
And –
Well, he did say it was chilly.
You can feel his erect nipple drag against your skin, slightly cool and pebbled up in the air.
Jayce’s little gasp is almost inaudible, but you can feel how he pulls away – fuck, he’s sensitive – once the contact registers.
Only to press right back in once one of the haunt actors pops out from behind the doorway. Sensations and ego completely thrown aside, Jayce glues himself to your side, to Viktor’s amusement.
You… were not prepared to get this much intimate knowledge about Jayce’s nipples tonight, honestly. You’re struggling not to short circuit as you blindly lead him to the next room.
Where the power goes out.
The door swings shut loudly behind you, and with a snapping sound, all the lights die.
The production is actually a bit scary, for the first time all night.
Jayce all but stops breathing next to you, and you freeze, because there’s no way it’s safe to continue walking for Viktor.
You hiss his name into the dark.
Cool, calloused fingers bump against the back of your hand, Viktor threading his fingers through yours.
“I am right here,” Viktor murmurs, giving your fingers a reassuring squeeze. “Don’t worry.”
He’s got nice hands, your brain nonsensically provides, still frazzled from the fear and all the revelations you’d been provided about the wonders of Jayce’s nipples.
Viktor’s hands are somehow both soft and a bit dry, though not unpleasantly so. His thumb rasps gently over the back of your hand. Back-forth, back-forth, soothing.
The silence drags, in the dark, fear falling away for appreciation, for both of the men to either side of you.
You’d have all been perhaps impressed at a finally effective scare, if not for the sounds of a stage tech muttering, “Ah shit, not again,” behind the plywood walls, and the sound of a fuse box door swinging open.
“The construction is more terrifying than the damn scares,” Jayce whispers agitatedly, with all the indignance of a haughty engineering grad student.
Which, of course, he is, but he could have a little more pity for the underclassmen.
The lights switch back on.
Neither Viktor nor Jayce let go.
—
Progressing to the next room still holding hands just feels right.
It dumps you out in a short hallway, capped off with an, er… “animatronic” skeleton.
It looks like it was picked up from a garage sale, considering the years of weathering, and it’s held together by duct tape and prayer
"Oh fuck that thing."
Jayce's considerable mass pulls you to a halt as he stares down the skeleton.
You turn to look up at him, raising an incredulous brow. "It's just cheap plastic, it literally could not be more obviously fake."
"It's gonna jump out!"
Much to your dismay, Viktor releases your hand.
He steps up to the prop, leaning forward over his cane to squint down into the poorly concealed mass of wiring.
"Their motion sensor is misaligned," he notes, with a huff of amusement.
You roll your eyes. "Figures."
Viktor scootches over, off the path, to trip the proxy, and the skeleton creaks to life, slowly wobbling its arm up in a spectral salute...
It promptly drops down directly on top of Viktor's head. Fortunately, it merely ruffles his hair considering it's made of hollow plastic.
Less fortunately, the entire skeleton arm falls off immediately, considering it seems assembled by a deranged five year old. It clatters to the floor limply.
Viktor pokes at it with the tip of his cane.
The security door bangs open in a flash of electric blue, streaking across the room to plant itself firmly in front of the skeleton.
It’s, er, hair. Long braids. Attached to a teenage girl.
She gives a chipper “OOPS!” and whips out an entire roll of neon green duct tape.
The shrip is jarring as she yanks the end and quickly wraps vibrant tape several times around the skeleton’s shoulder at lightning speed, reaffixing the arm.
Crooked, of course.
The grin on her face when she turns around is anything but friendly, Viktor leaning back with wide eyes as she juts herself into his personal space.
“Don’t touch the displays,” she grits through bared – “smiling” – teeth.
Considering she’s the scariest thing in the room despite being all of 5’2” and dressed in an Invader Zim hoodie, you don’t bother to point out that her display had more accurately touched Viktor, first.
Didn’t seem helpful.
She flounces back through the employee door, braids trailing behind her.
From behind the thin plywood, you can hear a boy complaining, loudly, “You’re not supposed to let them see you! Think about their immersion!”
“Puh-lease, they’re totally immersed. Did you see how that big guy was cowering?”
The conversation continues audibly behind plywood that offers literally zero sound insulation, and you want to grab them both by the shoulders and ask them just what immersion they thought was to be had in this absolute folly of a haunt.
Instead, you scoop up Viktor’s hand and continue walking because you aren’t trying to get choked out by an underclassman tonight.
—
The rest of the haunt progresses in similarly scuffed fashion. There’s got to be an end soon, right? What the underclassmen lacked in quality, they sure made up for in miles of sprawling plywood corridors.
Finally, you turn a corner and see streetlights, under a big sign helpfully marked "EXIT".
Down a long, otherwise empty hallway. No spooks, little decoration, just a long shot out the door.
Your sense for foolishness tingles.
Sure enough, there's a faint sound of a motor starting up, behind your little group. You can't even facepalm, because both your arms are occupied.
You peek over your shoulder to find a woman with short, dark hair, her muscles strong and well built under her costume, hefting a chainsaw on her left arm.
She smirks, and revs the motor.
It's cheesy. It's overdone. It feels like an actual haunted house finally, because she's actually kind of scary, intentionally.
And then –
The world is upside down.
Jayce throws you over his shoulder into a fireman's carry, and promptly scoops Viktor into his other arm. He all but sprints down the hall, muttering "nope nope nope" the whole way.
The woman hadn't managed to pursue because she'd been too busy laughing her ass off.
Jayce doesn't put either of you down until you reach the car.
—
Your table in the Starbucks is quiet.
Jayce and Viktor are picking at the seasonal drinks and cake pops that you'd gotten, as a thank you for coming along.
Seemed especially necessary, after how that had turned out.
Jayce finally breaks the silence.
"That haunted house was horrible," he grouses through a mouthful of themed Halloween frappuccino. "Way too scary."
"It was horrible, alright," Viktor mumbles, twirling his cake pop with a snort.
Jayce has your cardigan from Viktor's car draped over his shoulders to chase off the chill, his arm slung over your shoulders. Viktor's leg is resting against yours under the table, a warm, comforting weight.
Your hands still tingle where they'd been holding them, even after the haunted house.
So all in all, you kinda thought it hadn’t been all that bad.

An - omg I feel like I haven’t posted in a year what. Okay so earlier this week I went to a hockey game, and something happened while I was there and I wanted to write a fic about it. And I wanted to do Nate because I love Nate, and we need more Nate fics out there asap. And the song has nothing to do with the fic, it was the song I kept playing while writing this 😭
Paring - Nathan Doe X FemReader
Summary - You go to one of Nate’s hockey games
Warnings - Kissing, NOT PROOFREAD
Requested - Nope
ALSO YALL, I FIRST WROTE THIS IN THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER SO THERE WILL BE HALLOWEEN THEMED THINGS HERE, SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO UPLOAD
I hadn’t realize how late I had slept in until I heard my alarm go off more than 30 times, most of which I had just sleep through. I check the time and see it’s a little past 3. Shit. I had so much to do and had it all planned out. I was to clean my house, get a gift for Nate, go grocery shopping, and decorate for fall. I’ll just eat some food while I’m out but right now, I need to clean up my place. I have u til 6:30 to get everything done on my list. Considering Nate’s game starts at 7.
I clean my house, lighting candles and turning on fairy lights I have setup around my house. I take a quick shower and put on my freshly clean clothes. I do a slick back bun, not trying to do anything fancy. I get into my car and make a quick stop at Starbucks to get a drink. I also did an online order for my favorite lunch place in town so it’s ready for pickup when I get there. I pickup my lunch and eat in my car as I drive to target. I put my Starbucks in the cup holder of my cart and push it too the food section.
I grab my list of food and start putting it in my cart. I decided to grab some cookie dough for me and Nate to back after his game. I go over to the floral section and grab a bag of white, blue, and purple pair and place it in my cart. I’m on my way towards check out when I spot the cutest pair of matching pj sets. There was a vampire, pumpkin, and ghost option. They were all so cute but I decided to get the ghost ones. I check out and go home to eat dinner and decorate.
I decided to make something, quick, easy, and delicious. I play my fall playlist as I grab my last year bin full of pumpkins, signs, pillows and blankets. It only takes me around 30 minutes considering I cleaned earlier. I looked at the time, with not much time left I had to get ready. I put the totes back and head to my room. I put on a pair of leggings and his hockey jersey that he gave me. I take out my hair and do two French braids. I take some face paint type makeup I have and write his number on my cheek.
I put on my shoes and grab his flowers and teddy I bought him earlier that week. I grab a blanket so I don’t get cold at the rink. I drive to the rink in only 10 minutes. I head inside and get a ticket. I’m greeted inside by the triplets. They all look over at me and walk my way.
“Finally, we’ve been waiting for like 5 hours” Nick says rolling his eyes
“Nick, we got here 5 minutes ago-“ Matt chimed in
“Oh hush.” Nick says, crossing his arms, clearly annoyed.
“I’m so excited to watch my boyfriend play!” Chris says clapping his hands. Nick, Matt and I slowly turn towards Chris, giving him a confused look.
“Fine, I can’t wait to watch her boyfriend play” Chris says sarcastically but rolling his eyes.
“That’s what I thought.” I say pushing Chris a little bit jokingly. We all walk to the rink, getting a rush of cold air as the door opens. I could feel goosebumps approaching my skin. I wrap the blanket around my shoulders and sit down with the triplets. We sat and waited for the game to start. It only took a couple scrolls on insta before the players came walking out of the locker room and onto the ice to warmups. It wasn’t hard for me to find him, considering I had his number imprinted into my brain. Before I the warmups ended, I went to the snack bar and got myself a water and chips for me and the triplets. I head back just in time for the game to start. We all stand up and start to cheer, like the rest of the crowd. I only had my eye on one player the whole time. Every time he scored a point and I would jump up and down and scream for him. The three looked at me like I was insane but I didn’t care.
The game was over and Nate’s team won! We all wait for Nate outside of the locker room to finish up, but before he comes out I need to use the restroom. I come back not too long and see the brothers talking to a man I wanted to hug the first I saw him on the ice. He noticed me and started walking towards me. I ran up to him and gave him a hug.
“You did great tonight, I’m so proud of you.” I say giving him a peck on the lips.
“And these are for you.” I handed him the flowers and teddy bear, he then looked up at me with a smile that would make my heart melt.
“Thank you so much baby.” He said as he went to the side of me and wrapped his arm around my waist. He turned back and waved to the brothers as he started to walk with me out of the building. I help him load his things into my car, and we get inside the car after.
“So I had a really fun night planned out for us, but if you don’t want to do it, that’s okay and we can do something else.”
“It’s whatever makes you happy my love” I couldn’t help but blush at his words.
“So, my house is all decorated and I had candles going so it smells really good in there, and the house is clean so a bonus! And I was thinking we could make cookies and watch a movie together? And there’s also a surprise with that.” I say almost out of my seat from how happy I was.
“If that’s what you wanna do.” He says smiling back at me.
“Of course it’s what I want to do, but I wanted to know if u wanted to do it.” I say turning on my car, pulling out of the parking lot.
“I’m okay with anything you want to do.” He says looking out the window. I smile as I continue to drive back to my place. I pull into my driveway and get out of my car.
“Let’s take showers first tho.” I say unlocking my front door. He nods as I unlock the door and walk in. We take off our shoes at the front and walk to my room where my shower is.
“I’ll go first, I’ll be quick.” I say as I start to take out my hair. I hop in the shower and wash my face, get out, and wrap myself in a towel. I walk out into my room and too my closet, telling him it’s his turn on my way. He gets off the small couch I have in my room and head into the bathroom. I quickly get dressed into the pajamas I just bought for us. I sit down at my vanity and start doing my night skincare. I hear the shower turn off and with Nate walking out with the towel around his waist. He points at the pair of clothes on my bed.
“What’s this?”
“It’s yours, to wear! Tonight! To match with me!” I say turning around, show I’m in the matching set. He gives me a sigh but walks with it into the bathroom to get changed. I do a little clap of achievement, as I turn back around to finish my skincare. I hear the bathroom door open and see him walk out, giving me a sigh and looking down in disappointment.
“Hey! You look amazing! Don’t give me that I hate this energy, it’s supposed to be fun!” I say putting all my things away and getting up.
“I feel so weird in this.” He says throwing his hands like a baby
“Why? You look so cute!” I say walking towards him.
“Can I just take the shirt off? It feels tight.” He says scratching his neck
“Not yet! I wanna take a picture” I say grabbing my phone out. His arm wraps around my waist as I put the mode to 0.5x and turn on the flash. We smoosh our heads together doing a kissy face as I take the picture. I look at the picture to make sure it was okay then I put my phone down.
“Okay, let go make some cookies” I say kissing his cheek and walking out of my room. He follows close behind me. I grab a pack a Pillsbury cookies from the fridge and preheat the oven.
“How about you put on 6, and I put on 6” I say grabbing a tray from my cabinet.
“Good with me” He says giving me a smile
“Can I take my shirt off now?” He says whining
“Fine, Stop acting like a baby” I say as I start to put on my cookies.
We both finish putting on our cookies and put them in the oven. I walk over to my couch and turn on the tv.
“What would you like to watch?” I say looking up at him.
“I don’t know, you pick.” He says sitting down next to me
“Mhm, Corpse Bride? The Nightmare Before Christmas?” I say leaning back and laying my head on his chest
“Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas is a Christmas movie.”
“No it’s not!” I say as I scoff
“It is tho!”
I shake my head and get up to go take the cookies out. I put them on a plate and organize them in a cute way. I bring the plate to the couch along with a blanket.
“Hold the plate while I put the blanket on us.” I say handing him the plate. I sit down, covering our legs and a little bit of my waist. He sets the plate down on the blanket.
“Do you like tonight?” I say putting my head on him again.
“Of course” He says kissing my head. I smile in happiness that I was able to make tonight special.
“I love you” I say lifting my head up.
“I love you more” He says giving me a peck on my lips

Alr tysm!! so if its alr can you maybe write a yandere fanfic of Riddle amd Floyd regarding their Halloween wear?
Like how the reader is missing along with the students
A/N: I'm so happy I finally got a request bc I wanted to post I just wasn't sure of what. I'm also gonna assume this is gender neutrual!
Yandere!Riddle Rosehearts x Fem!Reader | Yandere!Floyd Leech x Fem!Reader
TW- yandere tendencies, unhealthy obsession,kidnapping
Side Note: I do not consent to this behavior; it is unhealthy, traumatizing, immoral, and mental. I only write for enjoyment. I would never wish this unto someone else.
How Yandere Floyd and Riddle React to the reader going missing (Halloween Event) | Headcanons
When I think of Yandere Riddle I think of a controlling, self-aware, manipulative yandere
He absolutely realizes how creepy and overly obsessive he is of you, but he just claims it as a trauma response to his childhood from his mother; and continues his yandere ways
So when everyone starts going missing his immediate response of course is you
He starts thinking about how you could've been kidnapped, which you were
When he finds out he's FURIOUS
All he can think is "HOW DARE SOMEONE TAKE MY BELOVED" especially right when he was thinking of locking you up in his room so you could only spend time with him
he doesn't actually care about the others, he just wants you back safe and sound in his arms
and for you to never escape said arms
While their fighting ghost and trying to save all the captured people, he was thinking of ways to smoothly kidnap/manipulate you so something like this never happens again <3
Seeing the ghost bride made him want to kill her(again)
Once everything is back to normal he hugs you so close
you thought it was cause he was worried for a close friend
After that you seem to be more isolated, Riddle had seem to occupy all the time you had whether you were in of out of school
You brought it up to him but his eyes got teary and he began to go on and on about how he's sorry it just that since his mom never gave him the attention h needed as a child you seemed to be the only person who gave him their undivided always making him feel cared for
It was of course him manipulating you into spending even more time with him if that was even possible and you never questioned him again
"I'm Sorry if I'm such a nuisance, it's just after my childhood and my mom you're genuine affection pulls me in I feel less alone."
Yandere Floyd is the most possessive, aggressive, time consuming, delusional yandere
He knew you were gone before anyone else did because he was stalking you
You know like any normal crush would do not
He was absolutely furious when he saw you get taken, he was going to go in there and stop it all but he was too late.
before going back to his dorm he threw some things a round and made a mess
but after his little (read as:huge) tantrum he swiftly went back to Octavinelle so that no one noticed he left
He was determined to find you(and Azul and Jade, but mostly you)
this man was ready to throw hands with anyone who got in his way of finding everyone you
The minute he seeing whom the guard ghosts referred to as "boss" he was throwing hands
5 different people had to hold this man back; when I tell you he was not playing around, I mean every word of the sentence
Everyone thought he was mad about his twin and childhood friend being kidnapped, he was more angry about them taking his little shirmpy
the moment everyone goes back home and their adventure is over he gives you the tightest squeeze (he only stopped when you began to turn blue, even then it was hesitant)
Never left you alone after that, even when he had to work he'd just bring you along
You tried to leave him once, but you felted him glared bullets into your back so you just stayed with him, where you belong
He'd always mumble weird things about keeping you forever but you never questioned him as to not put him in a bad mood
"Your Mine and you never ever leaving me, even when you try I'll break off your legs and keep you right next to me"

Obey Me! Characters go to a haunted corn maze!
(Execpt for Raphel, Thirteen, and Mephistopheles)
━☆*:･ﾟ✧✧ ♡ ❀ ♡ ✧━
Welcome! More Halloween Content even though Halloween passed! Sorry I just couldn't post it in time! Also srry its a little long! The characters may not be how you imagine! I apologize for any poor jokes, bad spelling, and terrible grammar. Without further ado, please enjoy the content. ♡
━☆*:･ﾟ✧✧ ♡ ❀ ♡ ✧━━☆*:･ﾟ✧✧ ♡ ❀ ♡ ✧━
In the Devildom Halloween festives rave on, and a new haunted corn maze arises! It was probably Diavolo or Mc who suggested everyone does the maze. Some participants didnt want to go, Mammon and Luke, but who can say no to the Devildom's Prince and Mc? Since it is the Devildom, the haunted maze does say it could be dangerous, and that some of the scares are real, however the maze promises to not kill or give a deadly curse to any customers. The maze states you might end up with a simple curse if you break any rules. The maze has a rule that only two people can go into the maze together at a time, obviously everyone fought over who got to go with Mc. Other rules for the maze are the usual rules, no stealing, no cheating, no hurting scare creatures, no breaking or damaging maze property, ext. The mazes appearance is quiet frightening, just the sight of it has Mammon and Luke shaking in their boots. Since the maze only allows groups of two Mc pairs up with...
Choose based on how they act in the maze!
Diavolo is bubbly and excited, he's excited that Mc choose to be his partner in the maze and he's excited to participate at the haunted maze. Diavolo doesn't jump at any jumpscares he just laughs and says something about enjoying that scare. If Mc gets scared Diavolo won't tease them, he may laugh lightly but he will happily pull Mc into his side to protect them. Trust him Mc, nothing can hurt you with the Prince of Devildom by your side. Diavolo may talk to the monsters who are acting as scare actors after they scare him and Mc. He'll praise the actors on their scares and just have a friendly chat with them. The maze experience with Diavolo may be longer than its supposed to be, due to his friendly nature, but it makes things very fun, and light-hearted. Overall its a great experience to do the maze with Diavolo. Diavolo doesn't get cursed from the maze because he doesn't do anything wrong. At the end of the maze when a ghost on a stick pops out Diavolo is delighted by such a simple scare! He even tries to talk Barbatos into putting a ghost on a stick somewhere in the castle, no matter how much he begged and whined Barbatos never gave in. Diavolo actually had Mc help him make his own ghost on a stick, Diavolo put it up somewhere in the castle "without" Barbatos knowing. This lasted for like 5 minutes, Barbatos took it down very soon after it was put up. This exchange kept happening for about a month before Barbatos just gave up and left the ghost on a stick up. There's now a ghost on a stick in a random hallway in the castle so beware if you get lost, you might just encounter a silly jumpscare.
Barbatos is his usual self. You won't catch this man breaking a sweat at all, no flinching, no eye blink in suprise, no reactions at all, none of fear or suprise or any emotions at all really. Barbatos won't tease Mc, he won't laugh at them, if anything he'll tell them it's alright to get startled. Barbatos is the perfect gentleman, he'll tuck Mc into his side to protect them from the scares, he'll counsel Mc when they get scared, if Mc wants to cling onto him the entire time he's letting them. Barbs can see the future so he might even know when the scares are coming, if he does he may subtly show Mc through squeezing their hand gently or pulling them a little closer to his side. If Barbatos doesn't know when the jumpscares will be, he still won't react. Barbatos will let Mc take the maze at their own pace, if Mc wants to enjoy the maze he doesn't want to rush them, and if Mc is scared and wants out of the maze as fast as possible, that's fine too, as a highly respected butler he's used to being quick on his feet anyways. Barbatos does not get cursed by the maze, hes to well behaved, he can't shame the young masters name. Barbatos finds the ghost on a stick at the end of the maze, as immature and silly, he doesn't show any reaction, but he may comment on how its his least favorite scare within the maze. He apprectiates the art behind it but its just not his cup of tea.
Lucifer is calm and collected like always, he may even tease Mc if they act scared. All the way up until the end of the maze Lucifer doesn't flinch at a single scare. The scares range in all kinds, the maze has real zombies, ghosts, whatever monster you can think of there is, but the maze also has fake pop ups or demons with costumes on, so its never clear what scare you're going to get. He just chuckles if Mc jumps at any scares, he'll let Mc hide behind him or hold his arm if their scared. He may even comment on the scares in between scares, talking about the quality of the scares and how he would have done it differently. At the very end of the maze Lucider and Mc are chatting about the maze and Lucifer gets lost in the coversation, he was just enjoying Mc's smile and laugh. Suddenly a fake ghost on a stick popped out and scared Lucifer, he was in his demon form in an instant. Everything happened just as fast as that, Lucifer drug Mc to his body with his wings so he could protect them, at the same time Lucifer punched through the ghost on the stick, efficiently breaking it. As soon as it dawned on Lucifer what he did he cleared his throat, turned back into his human form and muttered something to Mc about 'speaking of this to no one' before he began to walk off. Lucifer broke the rules to the maze, he damage property, so he found out quickly that he was cursed to trip every 3 steps. Due to the Anti-Lucifer League (I called them a squad before lmao my bad) cursing Lucifer often, he had experienced this curse before. Lucifer was able to get used to it quickly and was able to walk almost as if he wasn't cursed at all.
Mammon is loosing his marbles before he even enters the haunted maze. Mammon calms down a little and is all happy and blushy when Mc chooses him as their partner for the maze. Mammon tries to be all brave and act all tough just for Mc. The poor tsundere doesn't even wait until the first scare in the maze to cling onto Mc out of fear. He's the type to he clinging onto Mc out of fear and still be telling Mc that they are the scared one and that he's protecting them. If Mc gets scared thats okay hes scared too even though Mc will never catch him saying that. Mammon would ditch Mc if he absolutely had to, but most likely Mc will just be dragged around by Mammon as he runs around wildly in fear. Mammon does get cursed by the maze, halfway through the maze Mc anx Mammon find a "treasure chest" when Mammon opened it, the was a bunch of "gold" coins inside. Mc warned Mammon to not take any but he didn't listen, Mammon takes a couple of coins but as soon as he does they disenegrate into a dark goo. Mammon whines that he thought they were real and goes to continue the maze with Mc. Mammon doesn't realize why he's tripping every 3 steps until someone tells him that he was cursed by the maze for trying to steal. Mams is upset when he finds out he's cursed but like what can he do about it you know? He just whines and complains until the curse wears off. At the end of the maze, when the ghost on a stick pops out Mammon practically jumps over it trying to run away, Mammon drags Mc out of the maze by the hand and then acts like he wasn't scared at all. He'll deny all claims anyone makes even if Mc says he got scared, if Mc tells everyone they are proud, that he was brave and always saving them, Mammon will be over the moon and brag for days, weeks, maybe even months.
Leviathan, handles horror alright. He plays horror games he watches horror movies and animes, so he's used to scary things in that form, however Levi doesn't leave his room often, so sometimes he cinds the outside world to be overwhelming and scary itself. Levi is glad to have Mc as his partner for the maze, Mc always knows what to do and say and how to help him. If Mc gets scared by the maze Levi is not going to tease them, Mc never teases him so why would he tease them? Besides getting scared is a part of the horror experience! Levi didn't think he'd protect Mc, he had a lot of self doubting over that, but he protects Mc like a pro! He holds Mc if they want him to, he'll push Mc behind himself or pull them into his side, if Levi gets scared he may pull Mc away from the scare but he would never straight up ditch Mc. Levi does get scared by a couple of the scares in the maze, one of those times wasn't even supposed to be scary. It was just some random demon asking if Mc and him knew which way to go. Levi does not get cursed, he's rather well behaved during his experience in the maze. He's just focused on hanging out with Mc and having fun doing the maze. By the time Mc and him get to the end of the maze they are laughing and chatting about what they'll do back at HoL. When the ghost on the stick pops out Levi gets so startled that he turns into his demon form, Levi holds Mc to his side, slightly hiding them behind his body, he bares his fabgs at the "threat" and his tail wraps around Mc as if to protect them. When he realizes its just a ghost on a stick he's a flustered embarrassed boy. All his flusteredness gets worse if Mc praises him as their hero, however he is really happy to be their hero.
Satan loves himself a good horror experience. It can be a movie, book, haunted maze it doesn't matter he enjoys it. He apprectiates the art behind each scare, pranks and scares are somewhat similar, and he's always pranking Lucifer. Satan may tease Mc over being scared by the maze depending on how he's feeling. Most likely he'll use the maze as a romantic situation, he'll be the perfect gentleman and play the part of protector well. Satan will hold Mc close and gladly put himself in between Mc and the "danger". Satan may take notes from some of the scares, talkingto Mc about using the scares on Lucifer. Satan may also somehow find some scare creature that he talks to for awhile, he'll tell Mc that their his acquaintance and then he'll tell some crazy story on how he met them. Somehow even though Satan is perfectly behave, he winds up cursed. He's not upset over being cursed he's upset that his brothers will say something and probably try and make fun of him for it. Satan caught on pretty quick and was able to walk almost as if he wasn't cursed. By the time Mc and Satan get to the end of the maze neither one of them is paying attention to the maze, their both chatting about some book or how Satan should pull the scares off. When the ghost on a stick pops out Satan is suprised, but he pulls it off rather well. Satan will have pulled Mc into his side to protect them and he might even switch into his demon form on accident. Satan will blush and turn back to his human form when he realizes its just a ghost on a stick. Satan doesn't want Mc telling anyone, but he's not as prideful as Lucifer is about it. If Mc teases him or makes jokes Satan will laugh along and tease Mc over anything they got scared by.
Asmodeus can handle horror okay. Asmo isnt the biggest fan of horror, but he's not as much of a scaredy cat as Mammon is. Asmo isn't much of a gore lover but he does enjoy some psychological horror. Haunted mazes may not be Asmo's first choice in Halloween activities, but he can see the appeal to them. This is the perfect excuse to be all over your partner! Asmo understands the romantic aspect of the maze, he is fine with being the damsel in distress or being the hero, as long as he gets to be all close and cuddly with Mc he won't care. Asmo may tease Mc for getting scared but its not in the same way his brothers would, Asmo does it in a romantic-ish type of way. Does Asmo protect Mc from scares, kinda. Does Asmo also need protected from scares, kinda. It just depends on the scare and how Asmo is feeling. If Asmo is protecting Mc he'll pull them into his side and stand between them and the scare. If Asmo gets scared homself, then he basically jumps into Mc's arms as he screams dramatically and clings onto Mc for life. Asmo gets scared mostly by the real scares, the ones done by scare creatures, but a few fake scares get him as well. Asmo does not get cursed by the maze, he's rather well behaved, and spends most of the maze experience clinging to Mc. By the time Asmo and Mc get to the end of the maze they are both ready to get out. Asmo is complaining about his apperance and how he needs to fix it, Mc's just here for the ride at this point. Wink Wink. When the ghost on a stick pops out Asmo screeches and is all over Mc, after realizing its just a ghost on a stick Asmo calms down, he isn't really embarrassed and him and Mc just laugh it off as they finally leave the maze.
Beelzebub handles horror pretty well, he doesn't freak out but he can get scared. Its more of like a suprised face and maybe a little back step, he just doesn't really freak out over getting scared by something. He's a large boi mans can eat or fight whatever he needs to. Beel is not going to tease Mc over getting scared, he is not like his brothers, specifically his twin, he's sweet baby. Beel is an amazing partner to pick for the maze, as long as he doesnt get hungry during the maze. Beel will protect Mc no matter what the scare is, it can be a real scare a fake scare it doesn't matter, he needs to keep Mc safe. He'll put himself in between Mc and the scare, let Mc cling onto him or whatever they need to do to feel safe. Beel does get scared a couple of times but he still makes sure to protect Mc. Beel does end up getting cursed, poor guy got hungry, he accidently ate part of the maze. Mc and him had walked up to a witchs hut thing, and he ate the fake apples from the cauldron. He definitely has to be told by someone that he got cursed and thats why he keeps tripping every third step. He is sad puppy, feels ashamed and will apologize to everyone. By the time Mc and Beel get to the end of the maze, Beel is hungry again, Mc will have to try and get him to wait a little longer. Mc probably has to talk about a random subject trying to distract him when the ghost on a stick pops out, Beel somehow resists eating it and he gets headpats from Mc before they leave the maze.
Belphegor likes horror if he can stay awake for it. This man teams up with Satan all the time to cause chaos for Lucifer, so he loves the idea of learning some new scare tactics. Belphie teases the hell out of Mc if they get scared, he's a brat like that. He'll make this big deal out of it all too, like even if Mc only gets scared once he still isn't gonna let it go for awhile. Belphie can be a good maze partner but he can also be a menace, it just depends on what mood he's in. He'd never actually cause harm but he might do things like; jokingly push Mc towards the scare, "disappear" and freak Mc out, or try some of his scares on Mc. If Belphie is feeling nice or winds up feeling scared he'll stay by Mc's side and be a slight protector. Mc can cling onto him or hide behind him, he may wrap his arm around them but he's lazy and he knows its not an actual danger usually. Belphie doesn't really get scared but once he starts getting tired he becomes easier to scare so the scares start to get him towards the end of the maze. Belphie doesn't get cursed for breaking the rules, he's to tired to do anything other than cling to Mc's side. When the ghost on a stick pops out at the end of the maze, Belphie does get a little frightened, he goes into protectir mood. Belphie switches into his demon form and acts all intimidating. When he realizes its just a ghost on a stick he may be a little embarrassed. If Mc tries to tease him, he'll just brush it off and get sassy, he protecyed them after all so why is Mc veing all sassy?? Mans is def confused and upset, he thought he'd get cuddles and kisses.
Solomon is pretty good at handling horror, once you've lived as long as him fake horrors are nothing compared to what you've lived through. Solomon is a prankster and loves learning new scares and tricks, he definitely takes notes and appreciates the scares. Solomon teases the hell out of Mc if they get scared, Solomon just finds it so funny! Solomon is a decent maze partner depending on his and Mc's moods, Solomon is a chaos enticing man, so he'll mostly be chaotic, teasing, and boderline insane. However if Mc starts to get tired of his antics or starts getting seriously scared, he will start acting better. He wont tease them as much and he'll assure them he's there to protect them if danger arises. Solomon may be a chaos causing old man but he still cares for Mc, he'll gladly protect them if thats what they want. Though he believes his apprentice can help themselves. Solomon doesn't get that scared by the scares, he mostly just laughs at the scares but there may be one moment where he steps back in suprise, thats the most reaction they'll get from him though. Solomon does break the rules, but he somehow doesn't get cursed?? Solomon says its because of all the magical wards he has placed to protect himself but who knows if thats actually why he doesn't get cursed. Maybe he really does get cursed and just plays it off well enough, Mc will never know either way. Solomon finds the ghost on a stick at the end of the maze to be hilarious, he thinks its delightful! Such a simple scare but one that's bound to make at least one person jump. Solomon tries to figure out how he can make it better eith magic but he ultamitely decides its good on its own. It was either that or for fireworks to go off when the ghost popped out to scare people, the orginal design seemed much safer.
Simeon says in game that he doesn't really get startled by jumpscares. He handles horror pretty well, and enjoys the experience the maze provides. Scary things may not be his first choice, but he can handle them and he does enjoy experiencing new things. He probably wont tease Mc for getting scared, if he did it wouldnt be mean teasing, itd be very light barely considered teasing. He just doesn't want to make Mc feel bad, their a human in an Devildom Hunated Maze, its completely understandable to be scared. Simeon is such a good maze partner, its in his nature to protect others, especially humans, so he is always putting himself in between Mc and the scares. He'll let Mc cling to his arm and he'll pull them out of the way of any "danger" during the maze experience. Simeon doesnt get scared often however theres probably one scare that makes him blink in suprise and step back, its probably something he shouldn't even be scared of too, he's definitely embarrassed if it is. Simeom does not get cursed, he is to well behaved, the only way this man is getting cursed is if he messes with technology, but thankfully theres no technology in the maze! By the time Simeon and Mc get to the end of the maze their both chatting about their favorite scare, when the ghost on a stick pops out Simeon gets slightly startled but plays it off with a laugh and smile. Simeon found the ghost on a stick to be cute and it was one of his favorites.
Luke (platonic ofc) Luke is scared before even entering the maze, he's definitely giving Mammon a run on his money when it comes to being the scaredy cat of the group. Luke tries to act brave for Mc but the boy is very anxious and scared. Pls hold his hand. Luke is not going to tease Mc if they get scared, he's to nice for that. If Mc teases Luke for being scared they'll have an angry angel on their hands. Luke will try and protect Mc from the scares, he'll hold their hand or arm and "direct" them away from the danger. He's pulling as hard as he can as he runs away full speed. Luke is scared by basically all the scares, theres a few moments where hes calm but he's mostly panicking out of fear. Luke doesn't get cursed, he is well behaved and follows all of the rules. He is probably the one that read the sign where the rules were, even when panicking he'll remeber the rules and scream them out to Mc. By the time Luke and Mc get to the end of the maze, Luke is basically clinging onto Mc out of fear. When the ghost on a stick pops out luke gets scared, he tries to pull Mc away from it but Mc points it out to him. Luke is embarrassed that he got scared by a scare so silly, Luke doesn't like the ghost on a stick, probably because he got scared by it.

The harsh screech of your alarm was what pulled you from your slumber, making you groan as you rolled over to hit the snooze button on your phone. A few deep breaths and another groan left you as you buried yourself under the covers, hiding from the bright light in your room. You knew you had to be up for class in about an hour but you didn’t care enough to get out of bed and get ready. Surely you could sleep for just a few more minutes and still be up in time to get to class, that was the thought anyways as you closed your eyes and tried drifting off again. Just as you were about to be pulled back into your dream world and even more annoying sound jolted you out of your rest yet again.
“Rise and shine gorgeous!” Feeling a sudden weight pinning you to the bed, you ripped the covers off your head to glare up at the intruder. Bright red eyes gazed right back at you, accompanied by pale skin, short black hair, and a very sharp grin as he took in your form. Anyone else likely would have thought waking up in this position was a dream come true, but to you it was a living nightmare.
“Jungkook get off of me,” you groaned, trying to roll over under his weight, “can’t you let me sleep for like 5 more minutes?” Jungkook didn’t even budge despite your struggling under him, merely smirking down at your pathetic attempt to move him.
“You and I both know if you go back to sleep you won’t wake up again and you’ll be late to class, I’m just trying to help,” he mused, “and as much as I love watching you squirm under me like this we also know you can’t afford to miss any more class.” You stopped your movements and huffed as you glared up at him, clearly unimpressed by his little game.
“Get off of me you pervert!” you exclaimed as you reached up to hit at his chest. Jungkook merely shook his head with a dry chuckle before slowly crawling off of you to stand at the end of your bed. Your new freedom allowed you to finally sit up, crossing your arms and yawning softly as you tried to properly wake up. “Since when do you care about my life anyways?” you asked as you forced yourself out of bed, “I didn’t think you were capable of caring about anyone other than yourself.”
“Oh I don’t care,” Jungkook corrected, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed so he could watch you, “but I know you’ll keep whining about your grade and whatever else and I don’t want to deal with that so I’m making you go.” His eyes trailed your figure as you wandered around looking for something to wear, making you huff and throw a pair of socks at him. The offending article didn’t come close to hitting him, merely falling to the ground a few feet in front of him which made Jungkook scoff.
“You know you are more than welcome to leave whenever you want!” you called out as you went into the bathroom to change, making sure to slam and lock the door so he wouldn’t follow you. Not that it mattered because Jungkook seemed to have the ability to appear wherever he pleased whenever.
“Actually I can’t,” you heard his voice from the otherside of the door, tuning him out as you quickly got changed and brushed your teeth.
“Because I accidentally signed a blood pact and now you are bond to me until I die or pass it out to someone else yeah yeah I know,” you muttered out, already knowing what he would say next. Jungkook didn’t say anything but you could tell he was grinning like a madman on the other side of the door. “Honestly, can’t I like do an exorcism or something to get rid of you instead?” you asked rhetorically as you brushed your hair out. The question wasn’t directed at him but he evidently still heard you as the door suddenly sprung open to reveal the frowning male.
“You think some sellout priest with a generic biblical chant would be able to get rid of a being as powerful as I am?” he asked with a hand over his chest, “honestly Y/N I’m offended you would undermine me like that.”
“You were accidentally summoned by some college girls playing a stupid game and all you’ve done since is pop up randomly to scare me and stalk me like the creep you are. I don’t know about you but that doesn’t sound like the work of a powerful demon to me,” you taunted.
“Anyone can summon a demon with the right tools so that’s on you and not me,” he reminded, “not my fault you decided to try an online ritual without reading the warnings.”
“Whatever,” you hissed under your breath as you pushed past him, leaving your room to walk out into your living area. You paid no mind to the looming presence behind you as you grabbed your bag and walked into the kitchen to grab a protein bar, knowing you were going to be late if you stayed to humor your unwanted roommate any longer. “I’ve got to go or I’m going to be late. Stay here and try not to create too much of a mess while I’m gone,” you pleaded as you put your shoes on.
“You know if you’re so worried about me causing trouble I can just come to school with you,” Jungkook suggested.
“Hell no!” you all but shouted, “dealing with school is hard enough I don’t need a demon following me around to make my life more of a living hell.”
“Suit yourself,” Jungkook shrugged, “have fun at school!” His tone and nonchalant expression was rather off-putting and made you nervous as you turned to finally leave.
“I’m serious Jungkook, do not follow me and do not try anything funny!” you warned with one last glance back at him before rushing out the door.
ღ ღ ღ ღ ღ
It had been almost a month since you ended up stuck with Jungkook and yet it already felt like an eternity. The memory was still fresh in your brain as well, replaying over and over like a cursed nightmare you couldn’t escape from. It all started when you and a few friends decided to meet up at your place for a horror movie marathon to celebrate the start of the spooky season. You loved Halloween more than anyone and so the second October came around you were more than ready to celebrate. It also helped that you lived alone and your apartment was close to campus so it was the perfect place for your little get together. A bunch of candy, every horror movie you could get your hands on, even more snacks and a few drinks and you were set to go. At least, that was the plan until you guys got bored three movies in and decided to spice things up a bit.
“I have an idea!” your friend, Daeun said as she pulled up something on her phone, “I was researching rituals and summons for a project and I came across one that looked pretty interesting. It’s a ritual for eternal love and the supplies are things you should have laying around the house. We should try it!”
“You want to try a random ritual you found online with no experience?” you questioned.
“Well yeah, it’s said to create an everlasting bond and it’s supposed to be super easy to execute,” she argued.
“If a ritual is that easily accessible it probably doesn’t work and we’ll just be wasting our time.” You definitely were not a skeptic by any means, in fact you had dealt with your fair share of paranormal experiences in the past, but this seemed like a scenario that was too good to be true.
“Come on Y/N,” one of your other friends, Aiko piped in, “what’s the worst that could happen? If it is a dud we can say we tried and clean everything up but you won’t know unless we try.”
“Besides,” your last friend, Soyeon spoke up, “you’ve been single since you moved here a few years ago, lord knows you need all the help with love you can get.” All three girls started giggling after that while you merely rolled your eyes. You couldn’t help but think that their antics were a bit childish and that the ritual was a terrible idea but you were outnumbered so you hesitantly agreed. What followed was an hour of rearranging your apartment living room, working around a poorly drawn pentagram and you pricking your finger one too many times to get enough blood for the ritual to work. All four of you recited the incantation from Daeuns phone and then waited, feeling the room grow slightly cold but, much to your relief, nothing happened.
“Damn,” Daeun muttered, “guess it was too good to be true.”
“Well we don’t know that yet!” Soyeon argued, “we don’t actually know what the ritual does, maybe it takes time for something to happen?”
“What is Y/N going to walk into class next week and just be an attraction magnet?” Aiko teased.
“God I hope not,” you groaned, “this was not a good idea.”
“Hey relax, nothing happened so I’m sure it’ll be fine,” Daeun tried to comfort you.
“Come on let’s get everything cleaned up and we can go back to watching the movies.” Still, even as you guys put everything back the way it was and continued your movie marathon with IT Chapter 2, you couldn’t shake the feeling that something was extremely wrong. The feeling of dread you get when you’re out late and feel like you’re being followed but there’s no one there when you turn around. In fact, you could have sworn you saw a figure standing in the corner at one point though it disappeared the second you turned around. The feeling sent shivers down your spine and had you curling in on yourself as you once again peeked behind you to see if someone was there.
“Hey Y/N, are you doing okay?” Aiko asked after a minute.
“Huh? Oh yeah I’m fine, just a little cold that’s all,” you tried playing off your anxiety knowing that if they caught on you would be teased.
“Don’t tell me this movie is scaring you,” Soyeon teased, “I thought it was your favorite?”
“I’m not scared!” you scoffed, “I told you I’m just cold. In fact, I’m going to go grab an extra blanket so you guys will stop bugging me about it.” With that you pushed yourself up to your feet and made your way to your room to grab the extra throw blanket you had on your bed. That same chill ran down your spine the second you were alone and you froze, taking a deep breath as you glanced around the room. “Relax Y/N, nothings there you’re fine,” you whispered to yourself as you walked over to the bed.
“Oh? I thought you said you weren’t scared?” a deep voice coming from right behind you made you jump, falling back onto the bed with a soft shout. Quickly turning around, you gasped as you saw a man standing above you right where you had just been. His body was rather large and practically engulfed your frame in his shadow as he stood above you, bright red eyes peeking from under jet black bangs. His skin was pale but you couldn’t see much of it as his body was almost completely covered in black. A tight black turtle neck that looked like it would rip if he even tried to move his arms, tight black leather pants, even the black metal that decorated his fingers, ears, and one of his eyebrows. All things considered, he was a very attractive man and likely would have passed as human had it not been for the large ram like horns above his ears or the large black wings protruding from his back. You stared up at him like a deer caught in the headlights while he seemed to take his time drinking you in, licking his lips as his eyes raked your form. “You’re a cute one aren’t you?” he finally spoke again after a moment, “not a bad choice for a companion, at all. Though I highly doubt someone as pretty as you struggles to find love so what’s the catch hm?” He leaned over to get a better look at you, only to have you crawl back as a result.
“Woah woah hold up, who are you? And an even better question, what the hell are you doing in my apartment?” you questioned. He paused for a moment before sighing and running his hand through his hair.
“There’s the catch,” he muttered under his breath, “I take it you didn’t fully read the instructions on that ritual you performed then, huh? Well let me explain it to you then so we are on the same page.” He paused for a moment to take a seat on the bed, crossing his legs and facing you. He looked much less intimidating looking up at you with an almost childlike innocence but you knew better than to let your guard down with him. “Well Y/N,” he said as he reached into his collar and pulled out an amulet, holding up a finger when you tried speaking again, “yes I know your name, I know everything about you and more. My name is Jungkook, and as of today I will be your own little demonic companion. This little vial holds the blood you offered to me, and as long as it stays intact we are bond together, I am yours for life.” He swayed the vial in question and you could briefly see the red liquid sloshing around inside the little gem. You glanced at him as if in a trance, still confused and just as scared as you were before. Because of the little game you decided to play you were now eternally stuck with a demon?
“Exactly,” Jungkook answered as if he was reading your mind, “you really didn’t read ahead did you? When done successfully the blood pact bonds you to an immortal lover and eternal devotion. The only way for you to get rid of me now is to pass me on to someone else, or die but don’t think I’ll let you leave me that easily. You’re clearly special to attach yourself to someone like me and I’m a selfish man so I don’t like giving up my toys that quickly.” He was about to say something else when a knock at the door startled the both of you out of your little moment.
“Y/N? Are you okay in there?” You turned to Jungkook who held his finger to his lips in response.
“Yeah sorry, I tripped over my shoes,” you lied with a soft chuckle, glancing back and forth between the door and the demon in front of you.
“Clumsy as ever I see, hurry up we paused the movie for you!” you heard your friends footsteps slowly disappear, leaving you alone with Jungkook yet again.
“Well better get out there, don’t want to keep your friends waiting now do we?” he mused with a chuckle, “don’t worry though, we’ll have plenty of time to get to know each other later, until then.” With that he was gone, leaving you staring up at the space he once occupied. Part of you wanted to lay there and figure out what the hell just happened but you could hear your friends calling for you out in the living room. With a heavy sigh, you got up and grabbed your blanket, wrapping it around yourself as you waddled back out into the living room. The only trace of Jungkook was the brief scent left in the blanket from where he had been, still strong enough to invade your senses and distract you from what was going on.
“Y/N.”
“Y/N?”
ღ ღ ღ ღ ღ
“Y/N!” the sound of Aiko shouting broke you out of your memory induced trance, glancing around to realize you two were the only ones left in class. You had been so trapped in your head that you completely missed what was talked about during your lecture. “You seem really out of it today, are you okay?” she asked as she grabbed her things and stood up, you doing the same so you could walk to your next class together.
“Yeah I’m fine, just haven’t been sleeping well I guess,” you brushed off her concerns knowing you couldn’t tell her the real reason. As if having Jungkook around couldn’t be any more annoying, you weren’t even allowed to let other people know of his existence. He was nothing more than a twisted hallucination, appearing only when no one else was looking and making you feel like you were going crazy. Actually, you probably were going crazy with all the stress you were under.
“You’re focusing too much on work and it’s stressing you out,” Aiko noted, “maybe relaxing and getting out a bit would do you some good? Halloween is this weekend after all.”
“Don’t remind me,” you groaned, “it’s my favorite holiday and I haven’t even been able to do anything to celebrate because I’ve been so busy.” You had to resist the urge to slam your head into your textbook as you thought about that and the fact your Halloween would likely be spent alone studying.
“Hey hey come on now,” Aiko tried cheering you up, “relax we still have time to celebrate. You know Yoongi invited some of us to a Halloween get together at his place, you should join us! We can go after school and get you a costume and it’ll be fun.” You appreciated that she was trying to help and cheer you up, but a party really wasn’t your idea of fun.
“I don’t know, parties aren’t really my thing,” you countered.
“Don’t think of it like a party think of it like a friendly hangout. You, me, Daeun, Soyeon, Yoongi, Namjoon, and possibly a few other friends, nothing crazy.” You still weren’t convinced which had her groaning and pinching the bridge of her nose.
“Fine fine I’ll think about it okay?” you gave in just to prevent an argument, which seemed to do the trick.
“Awesome! Let me know before lunch though so I can plan if we’re going out tonight or not! See you soon Y/N!” she exclaimed with a pat on your shoulder before making her way down the hall to her class. You shook your head and turned to make your way to your own class when you felt a familiar shiver run down your back.
‘You have got to be kidding me,’ you thought to yourself as you glanced around for the all familiar black figure you knew was following you. You didn’t see him at first, but you definitely felt him when he crept up behind you.
“Your friend has a point you know, going out would be a nice change for you,” he mused with a smug grin as he saw you jump.
“What are you doing here?!” you hissed as you turned to face him, “I told you not to follow me.”
“Yeah you did make that pretty clear,” he teased, “but all that did was make me curious and it was boring staying at home all day so here I am. Besides you don’t get around so I figured you could enjoy my company.”
“No I do not enjoy your company!” you argued, “and how are you even here anyways? I thought no one was supposed to know you existed.”
“You’re really not that observant are you?” he questioned, “do you really think I would get away with just wandering around in my normal form? I have my ways of blending in.” It was then that you took a step back and finally registered the change in his appearance, more specifically how human he was. His wings and horns were missing, once red eyes now replaced with a deep brown, and even his fangs were replaced by almost cute bunny like teeth. He also wasn’t dressed in his normal black attire, instead wearing a simple brown shirt and cargo pants to fit in with your classmates. With the short sleeves of his shirt, you were also able to take note of all the tattoos covering his arms and even his hand, had those always been there? “Yes I’ve always had these, seems you just never cared enough to notice them,” he answered your question with a smirk. You rolled your eyes and groaned for what felt like the millionth time that day.
“You’re telling me you could do this the entire time and you only decide to spring it on me now?” you whisper yelled.
“You never let me leave the house so there’s no point in hiding myself,” he explained casually, “also this takes a surprising amount of effort to maintain so I don’t like doing it often.”
‘So much for powerful demon’ you thought. “If it requires that much effort why not just go home so you don’t have to?”
“You know I went through all of this effort to come and see you and your only response is to shut me out? That really hurts you know,” you whined. You honestly couldn’t tell if he was being serious or not and you honestly didn’t care, especially not when you were about to be late to class.
“Fine whatever just stay quiet and try not to ruin anything,” you gave in, rushing to class with a very giddy demon trailing behind you.
Save for the stares you kept getting, being at school with Jungkook went surprisingly well. He stayed quiet most of the time unless it was to talk to you and was even able to help you cheat with some assignments. It was only when your lunch period came around that you realized you would have another problem to deal with, explaining Jungkook to your friends. In fact you were half tempted to just skip and drag him off somewhere else before Daeun noticed you both and ran over, the rest of your friend group following.
“Hey Y/N, who’s your friend?” she questioned as she looked over at Jungkook.
“Oh umm this is Jungkook, he uh...” you stuttered trying to think of a reasonable excuse for how you met when he suddenly cut you off.
“I’m a transfer student here from Busan, it’s actually my first day so Y/N has been showing me around,” he explained.
“Oh that’s cool, though I’ve never actually heard of someone transferring in the middle of a term,” Soyeon commented.
“I wasn’t supposed to start until next term but there were a few classes still open so I can at least get started.”
“What’s your major then?”
“Musical arts, I’m undecided about a specific focus though.” You couldn’t help but blink up at him in confusion, wondering how he was able to brush off their questions so easily. In fact it baffled you that he even knew anything about college to begin with. Didn’t demons have other priorities rather than learning about basic human life?
"I’ve been around for centuries if not more,” you suddenly heard his voice in your head, “do you really think I wouldn’t know about how these things work? Let’s also not forget that I have an eye on you at all times.”
‘Great so now you can get in my head?’ you thought.
“I’ve always been in your head gorgeous, again you just don’t pay attention.”
“Umm Y/N? We’re going to go sit down now,” you heard Soyeons voice which made you sigh.
“Sorry guys I’m still pretty tired, yeah let’s go sit,” you agreed.
“Jungkook would you like to come sit with us?” Daeun offered which made you want to sigh.
“No”
“I would love to,” Jungkook agreed, smirking in your direction as he walked with the rest of your friends. All you could do was slouch over in protest as you followed them anyways, hoping things wouldn’t get any worse.
“Hey Namjoon, Yoongi, over here!” just your luck that things were about to get a million times worse. Glancing up from the table you watched as the two males walked over to join you guys. Yoongi was an upperclassman and your mentor for one of your final projects so naturally you had grown pretty close to him. He was the one who introduced you to Namjoon, a business major in the same year as you were. The two of you had immediately clicked and became best friends, and you had even started to develop a little bit of a crush on him. All your friends knew about it and were trying to play matchmaker, getting you two near each other whenever possible. It seemed that Jungkook was also quick to catch onto this little crush, the room suddenly feeling colder as he glared daggers at Namjoon. Without directing any attention to the already obvious mood shift, you hit at Jungkooks leg under the table to snap him out of it, mouthing a quick “relax” before your friends noticed.
“Hey Jungkook are you okay?” you heard Aiko ask, clearly noticing the shift in his mood.
“He’s just shy,” you spoke up before he could ruin anything, feeling his gaze from beside you, “a lot of new people to get to know.”
“Oh right sorry about that,” Aiko apologized, “Namjoon, Yoongi, this is Jungkook and he’s apparently a new student here. Jungkook this is Yoongi and Namjoon, Yoongi is also a music major so I’m sure you guys will get along well!” The two older males perked up at the introduction whereas Jungkook sunk into his seat a bit with a very forced smile.
“Oh a new transfer, how are you enjoying it so far?” Namjoon asked.
“Just fine,” Jungkook muttered through grit teeth, resulting in you hitting his leg.
“It’s his first day so he’s still getting used to it,” you clarified.
“Ah I see, well if you ever need people to hang out with feel free to come find us,” Namjoon said, “in fact, we’re having a bit of a get together this weekend for Halloween, you should join us!” You were pretty sure you felt your eyes bulging out of your head a little bit when he mentioned the party.
“Oh yeah that reminds me,” Aiko piped up, “Y/N have you decided if you’re coming or not?”
“Oh umm I don’t know,” you muttered, looking around for any way out of this conversation. Jungkook noticed this and couldn’t help but smirk a bit at your discomfort.
“Weren’t you just ranting to me about how Halloween was your favorite holiday?” he teased.
‘I hate you so much Jungkook’ you thought to yourself, “Well yeah but-”
“Come on Y/N, it will be fun,” Namjoon encouraged. His signature dimpled smile had always been a weakness of yours and you found yourself relaxing if even the slightest bit.
“Alright fine, I guess I have nothing better to do,” you agreed, much to the delight of the others and the distaste of your demonic companion.
“Well if Y/N is going I suppose I’ll go as well,” Jungkook piped up, making you slouch back to your original position.
“Awesome we’ll see you guys there then!”
ღ ღ ღ ღ ღ
“You have got to be kidding me.”
“You are not wearing that!” you rolled your eyes and pushed your way past Jungkook into your bathroom so you could do your makeup, the male trailing right behind you. His arms were crossed and his eyes narrowed as he took in your outfit. The last minute costume that you and Aiko had agreed on was a witch, though a bit of a more sexy witch at that. The costume was a long black velvet dress with purple lace accents all over it, a low cut neckline with lace you could use to either loosen or tighten it and a slit at the bottom that exposed your leg. The witch hat had the same purple lace accents with a curtain that partially covered your eyes and gave a very mysterious look. To top off the outfit you were also wearing fishnet thigh highs and just a slight heel to make yourself taller. You thought the outfit looked adorable on you, but Jungkook clearly had other ideas. “Seriously Y/N there is no way in hell I am letting you go anywhere in that,” he whined as he watched you do your makeup.
“Oh shut up, what are you my father?” you hissed as you focused on your eyeshadow, “who are you to tell me what I can and can’t wear?” From your view in the mirror, you could see his eyes darken which concerned you just a bit. In all the time you had been together you had never seen Jungkook genuinely upset and you had to admit you were a bit worried of what would happen if you pushed him. Still, he was the one who pushed this stupid get together on you and now he was whining because he didn’t like your outfit which kind of pissed you off. What right did this man have to control anything about you?
“In case you’ve forgotten you are bonded to me!” he reminded through grit teeth, “you belong to me and yet you won’t even give me the time of day half the damn time! Yet here you are now dressing up in a teasing outfit and showing off to other guys, it’s like you want to mess with me.” You groaned and slammed your makeup brush down as you turned to face him.
“So what if I’m bonded to you huh? I made it very clear from the beginning that I do not like you or this arrangement and you chose to stick around anyways. Stop acting like you own me or that I owe anything to you when we both know the ritual that night was an accident!” you snapped, walking up to Jungkook and poking his chest to emphasize your point.
Jungkook didn’t even flinch as you yelled at him, giving you no reaction despite the evident shift in his aura. His stiffness intimidated you more than you were willing to admit and you suddenly felt unsure of yourself. Before you could move away though his hand was reaching up to grab your outstretched wrist, not hard enough to hurt but firm enough that you could feel it. He took a deep breath and leaned down so the two of you were eye level, making you stiffen as you could practically feel the anger radiating off of him. “Do you know how hard I have tried to be patient with you?” he muttered. His voice was monotone but you could briefly hear an echo to it, a growl almost that was a giveaway to the calm facade he was showing. You tried to say something but found you were frozen in your spot, unable to even open your mouth. “No no you’ve said enough, it’s my turn now,” he taunted as he read your thoughts again, “accident or not you made the blood pact that brought me here you know? You can’t pretend you didn’t do it on your own free will either because you and I both know that you weren’t forced to participate. You sold yourself to receive eternal love and partnership and that’s what I’m here for, you gave yourself to me and you also refuse to give yourself to me and I don’t get it.” He finally let go of you but you still remained in your spot as he walked back a few steps, not looking at you as he reached under his collar and grabbed the amulet. With a firm tug the chain snapped and hung around his hand as he inspected the vial for a moment, almost in disgust. It was then that you seemed to find your voice as you weakly called out to him.
“Jungkook I-” he cut you off with a motion of his hand, dangling the necklace in front of his face before turning back to you.
“If you really want me gone so bad then fine, all you have to do is find a way to destroy or pass on the bond and you’ll never see me again. Choose wisely though, a broken bond can never be repaired no matter how hard you try, and the consequences will follow you to the grave,” he stated, grabbing your hand and dropping the necklace onto it. You looked down at the red gem in your hand, staring at it like a foreign object before looking back up to see the space Jungkook occupied was now empty. Your thumb ran across the gem with a saddened sigh, refusing to look back down at your hand as you slipped it into a little pocket on your dress. You would deal with this whole situation later, but for now you had a party to get to.
“Hey Y/N you look great!” Daeun greeted you once you finally got to Yoongi's house and located your friend group. The first thing you immediately noticed was that there were a lot more people than you were expecting for what was supposed to be a friends only party.
“Yeah you look great too,” you said nervously as you glanced around, “but I thought this was supposed to be a small get together?”
“Yeah we thought so too,” Soyeon agreed, “apparently Yoongi's roommate is pretty popular on campus and wanted to invite his friends so it quickly turned into an actual party.”
“I see,” you muttered, suddenly feeling very self conscious about being here with all these strangers, “speaking of Yoongi, where is he?”
“Him and Namjoon ran off to hang out with some of their club buddies, they should hopefully join us soon though, if you plan on staying?” Aiko asked as she could sense your discomfort.
“I’ll try to stay long enough to at least see them but I don’t know if I can bring myself to stay the whole time,” you admitted. Not only were parties not really your thing but your mind also kept going back to your fight with Jungkook earlier, if you could even call it that.
“Oh yeah, have you heard from Jungkook by any chance? We haven’t seen him here yet,” Soyeon asked, which made you sigh.
“No I haven’t, I assumed if anyone knew it would probably be Yoongi or Namjoon since they’re the ones that invited him,” you lied, hoping they wouldn’t pry into why you acted so strange at the mention of Jungkook. Yeah you never really liked him because you were just kind of stuck with him, but the more you thought about it the more you realized he never actually gave you a reason to dislike him. Other than the constant teasing to rile you up and the occasional moment of appearing out of nowhere he acted like any normal roommate would. You had wanted nothing more than to get rid of him but now that you had the chance you were hesitant on actually letting him go. Pulling the amulet out of your pocket, you once again found yourself admiring the gem that bonded you two together as you tried to get your thoughts straight. Perhaps you should just leave the party and go apologize to him?
“Ah Y/N you made it!” turning around you saw an obviously tipsy Namjoon make his way over to your group. He was dressed as a makeshift werewolf, with the cheap fuzzy ears and paws one would find at the dollar store, he even had a tail clipped onto the back of his shirt that swayed as he stumbled his way over to you. You quickly closed your hand to hide the necklace and hid it behind your back as you smiled up at him.
“Hey Namjoon, looks like you’ve been having fun,” you greeted with a slight smile. He chuckled softly as he moved to sit next to you, almost tripping in the process.
“Yeah sorry, I didn’t expect this many people to show up but you know we felt bad about turning them away,” he explained, “I’m glad you still came though, you look beautiful.” You felt your face start to heat up and quickly looked away so he wouldn’t see you blushing.
“Thank you, you don’t look so bad yourself,” you practically whispered so he almost didn’t hear you.
“Thanks,” Namjoon replied with a chuckle, “this is actually pretty last minute as I may or may not have completely torn my original costume when trying to get it on.” Now it was your turn to laugh as the image ran through your head.
“I swear you’re more clumsy than I am,” you mused to which he merely shrugged in response. There was a moment of silence between you two, simply staring at the floor as the crowd around you grew louder. Your friends had run off at this point to do who knows what meaning you and Namjoon were basically abandoned in the crowd. It only ended when Namjoon cleared his throat to get your attention.
“So I’ve been meaning to ask you something,” he began, waiting for your signal to continue, “I mean we’ve been close for a while now and I’m pretty sure you feel the same way I do but, I was wondering if you maybe wanted to go get dinner with me one night after class?” It felt like time had frozen as you looked at Namjoon in shock. This was a moment you had been waiting for since as long as you could remember and yet, your heart didn’t flutter like you felt it would. In fact, you were more focused on the way the amulet in your hand suddenly felt so hot you were worried it would burn into your skin yet you couldn’t move.
“Wow Namjoon I don’t know what to say,” you stuttered out, “I mean…”
“What’s wrong?” Namjoon asked, “do you not feel the same way?”
“Yes I mean no I mean, I don’t know,” you groaned, “I thought I did but…I don’t know I’m really confused right now and…”
“There’s someone else isn't there?” Namjoon asked, and trying as hard as he was to hide it you could hear the hurt in his voice. You honestly didn’t know how to respond, part of you wanted to say that there was but the other part of you that still wasn’t sure. Not even an hour ago you hated Jungkook's existence and suddenly now he was the only person you could think of? Honestly you should have been locked up in a mental hospital for how quickly you changed your mind on these things.
“I’m sorry, am I interrupting something?” the voice of the very man you were just thinking of spoke up for you. You almost thought your mind was playing tricks on you until you turned around and saw Jungkook standing behind you. He was still in his demon form but since it was a Halloween party no one seemed to bat an eye at his appearance.
“Jungkook?” you questioned, “when did you get here?”
“I’ve been looking for you all night, looks like I came just in time though,” Jungkook mumbled as he glared daggers at Namjoon. The man in question seemed to get the hint and quickly excused himself, standing and dusting off his pants with a nervous cough.
“Right sorry I’ll leave you guys too it, I’ll see you in class Y/N,” he stuttered out, tripping over himself in his haste to leave the conversation. Jungkook merely scoffed and flipped his hair out of his eye before taking the seat next to you that had been previously occupied, though he refused to look at you. You blinked a few times in shock before awkwardly clearing your throat.
“What are you doing here? I thought you were mad at me?” you asked.
“You called me here,” Jungkook replied, “or are you going to tell me that was also an accident?” You were about to ask what he meant when you remembered you were still holding the amulet behind you back. Pulling your hand back to rest in your lap, you opened your palm to see it looked the same but it was still warm. Is that why it heated up when Namjoon was talking to you? “You were thinking about me, I can sense it from a million miles away, just like how I can feel your emotions so I know when you’re hurt or uncomfortable,” Jungkook explained, finally turning to look at you. You nodded silently as you tossed the necklace around in your palm before reaching out to hand it to him.
“Here, take it back,” you clearly caught him off guard as he stared at you in shock, making you shrug, “I think I owe you an apology, I judged you too quickly instead of trying to open up to you. This doesn’t mean I accept being bound to you but I don’t want to get rid of you.” Jungkook chuckled softly before reaching out and grabbing the amulet from you, securing it back around his neck with a satisfied smile.
“It’s a start in the right direction so I’ll accept it for now,” he mused with another chuckle, “but I won’t settle on that for long.”
“If you say so,” you brushed him off while looking around, “can we go home though? I don’t think I want to stay at this party any longer.”
“I thought you would never ask,” Jungkook said with a smirk, “here take my hand, we’ll take a shortcut.” You looked at him confused but grabbed his hand anyways, the party slowly faded away in an odd blur before returning back to show you sitting in your apartment living room. “I told you I have quite a few tricks up my sleeve,” Jungkook hummed when he saw how confused you were.
“Noted,” you whispered in a daze as you slowly stood up and looked around the living room. It was then that you noticed a very odd and sweet scent coming from the kitchen. Turning your head, you began to make your way over there, only to be stopped by a frantic Jungkook appearing in front of you.
“Uhh hey let’s not go into the kitchen right now,” he urged.
“What? Why not?” you asked as you tried to peek around him.
“Trust me, just don’t!” now you were even more curious, dashing around Jungkook and running into the kitchen before he had a chance to react, “Y/N wait!” You slid to a stop and gasped as you realized where the smell was coming from. Your counter and small dining table were covered in a mess of baking ingredients and what looked to be tossed out batters for something. The sweet smell you quickly realized was chocolate as evident by the cocoa powder and color of the batters. It was a complete disaster but you couldn’t bring yourself to focus on that as you turned to look at Jungkook.
“What’s all this?” you asked. You swore you almost saw the demon blush as he rubbed the back of his neck.
“Well I wanted to try to cheer you up after what happened earlier and I remember you raving about this stupid chocolate raspberry candy or something like that so I thought why not try to make a cake for you,” he explained, “granted I don’t know how baking works so I didn’t realize it would be this hard, but I think I at least got one right.” He walked past you and over to the counter where there was a singular cake laying on a cooling rack, not even iced yet and it looked like it hadn’t been there long. From the looks of things Jungkook had been doing this for a while and dropped what he was doing when you summoned him. “I have no idea how it tastes so you can’t judge me too hard for this but here,” Jungkook said, pulling off a little chunk of the cake and offering it to you. You cocked your head to the side briefly before moving closer and taking a bite, groaning softly as the flavor flooded your mouth. It was a bit more sour than you were expecting so he probably used a bit too much raspberry but it was still really good for a first try.
“It’s really good, but really you mean to tell me you’ve never baked before?” you questioned, still with some of the cake in your mouth. Jungkook wasn’t really paying attention to that though, hyper focused on the way you had groaned at the taste and the way your lips wrapped around his finger briefly. It was such a simple thing you probably didn’t notice, but it had the demon reacting in ways he wasn’t sure he wanted.
“Is it really that good?” he asked after a moment, grabbing a piece for himself with a shrug, “I mean it’s okay I guess, better than the other ones for sure.”
“They can’t be that bad,” you replied obliviously as you walked over to one of the bowls, dipping your finger in the batter and sucking it off, “this one is pretty good.” Jungkook felt his eye twitch as your actions continued, watching you dip your finger into the batter again and repeat the process. It was then that you took notice of his little shift, noticing the way his eyes darkened and his tongue ran over his lips as he watched you. Normally that kind of look would have you running the opposite direction but something about it on Jungkook was rather attractive. It gave you a mini confidence boost and before you could think you found yourself reaching for another bowl, this time making a show of loudly sucking on your fingers and moaning at the taste of chocolate. “I think I like this one even better though, it’s nice and sweet,” you teased with a wink. Jungkook quickly caught on to your little game and smirked at you as he leaned against the counter.
“You’re doing this on purpose aren’t you?” he challenged, the tone of his voice causing you to shudder involuntarily. There was a new rough edge to it you never heard before, almost like he was growling as he spoke to you.
“No idea what you’re talking about, I’m just enjoying a little treat,” you continued with your teasing. He raised an eyebrow at you before humming and grabbing the last bowl, swirling the batter around with the tip of his finger before dipping two in and walking over to you.
“Surely you need to be fair and try them all then, right?” he mused as he lifted his fingers to your lips. One of his fingers brushed your bottom lip just enough to smear some of the cake batter onto it before you were eagerly opening your mouth and sucking both in. Jungkook could barely hold back from groaning as he felt your tongue wrap around his fingers, keeping a straight face as you glanced up at him. “There you go, good girl,” he teased as he pulled his fingers out, purposefully dragging them against your lips so that the remaining batter smeared against them. “Opps,” he teased with a dark chuckle, “guess I left a bit of a mess huh? Why don’t you let me get that for you.” Before you could respond you found yourself pinned against the wall as he crashed his lips against yours. Jungkook was demanding from the beginning, keeping you pinned with his body, one hand tangled in your hair while the other gripped your thigh. You tried weakly to fight for dominance for a few seconds before giving in and letting him have complete control, sighing into the kiss and grabbing onto his arms desperately.
ღ ღ ღ ღ ღ
As badly as he wanted this to escalate, Jungkook stayed like that for a few moments, merely kissing you while playing with your hair and keeping you pinned. It was teasing and you both knew it, but Jungkook needed you to want him just as much as he did you. This was the moment he had been wanting the past month so he knew he could be patient. Even when the faint taste of the chocolate raspberry dessert faded, you two remained in that position, only pulling away when he felt you needed to breathe. You panted as you looked up at him, still desperately gripping onto you as you felt like you would lose your balance if you let him go.
“Wow,” you whispered out of breath, making him chuckle a bit.
“What do you think Y/N?” he asked, stroking your cheek playfully, “ready for an even better treat?” Instead of responding verbally, you answered him by pulling him back down into another kiss, catching him off guard momentarily. You took advantage of your power to explore him more, biting at his bottom lip and running your hands across his body. Jungkook groaned softly and let you do what you wanted for a minute before grabbing your thighs and lifting you up, not breaking the kiss as he carried you into your bedroom. You gasped softly as he laid you down as softly as possible, hovering over you as his kisses trailed from your lips to your neck. You moaned softly and tossed your head back as he began softly nibbling at your neck, occasionally sucking harder to leave a mark. His fingers ghosted across your body, barely touching you as he trailed his hand down your thigh. His touch was burning and left you desperate for more of him, quickly getting irritated by the slow and gentle movements.
“Jungkook, more please,” you breathed out, feeling him smirk against your neck.
“Be patient my little witch,” he cooed, “I want to take things slow for our first time.” You groaned in annoyance, reaching up to tug at his hair. Jungkook hissed at the action which made you giggle as he moved to look up at you.
“What if I don’t want you to take things slow huh?” you challenged, “you do want me, right?”
“More than you will ever know, which is why I want to savor this,” Jungkook muttered as he reached up to remove your hand from him. He readjusted so he was pinning both your hands to your side, straddling your hips as he gazed down at you. His new position had you squirming a bit to escape his eyes but he didn’t even budge, easily holding you down. “Now are you going to behave or are we going to be doing this the hard way?” he asked. You paused for a moment before giggling and as you finally looked up at him.
“What a powerful love demon like you wanting to take things slow? What I’m hearing is that you just can’t handle it.” You watched his eyes darken and his lips curl into what almost looked like a snarl, making you bite your lip and look away again.
“Oh no no you don’t get to be shy now you brat,” Jungkook hissed as he let go of one of your hands to grab your chin, forcing you to look up at him. You locked eyes with Jungkook and gasped as his hand went from your chin to your throat, squeezing just hard enough for you to feel the pressure. “You asked for it so you can’t take it back now,” he whispered, leaning down so your lips were almost touching, “your safeword is raspberry, if you say or think that word I will stop okay?” You did your best to nod despite his hands on your throat which made him shake his head, “Words Y/N, I need to hear you.”
“Yes!” you gasped out, making Jungkook smile and peck your lips softly.
“Oh and one more thing,” he continued, letting go of your throat to trail his finger down to the neckline of your dress, “if you even think about cumming without my permission you will regret it doll.” With that he wasted no time in ripping the dress off of you, the force pulling you off the bed a bit before his strength shredded the fabric, exposing your body to him. Because of the way the dress fit you, you had decided not to wear a bra so you were left in just your panties and fishnets. You almost swore you heard Jungkook purr as he took in the sight of your body. “Wow no bra? You are a dirty girl aren’t you?” he hummed.
“I just bought that dress,” you whined, trying to ignore the warmth spreading in your body from his gaze. Jungkook clicked his tongue in mock annoyance, moving his hands to roughly fondle your breasts. You gasped and arched your back into his hands which made him smirk.
“I’ll buy you a new one if you’re that worried about it,” he mumbled, “but for now I’m much more interested in exploring my new territory.” You opened your mouth to bite back that you weren’t his but he beat you to it by squeezing your breasts again, two of his fingers teasingly pinching your nipple and making you gasp.
“If I were you I’d lose the attitude,” he warned, “that is, if you want any chance of walking right tomorrow.” You moaned softly as he lowered his head, trailing kisses down your neck and chest before taking your nipple into his mouth. Jungkook started out with gentle sucks before slowly rolling the sensitive bud between his teeth. He repeated this process for a moment then switched to the other one, chuckling as he heard you gasp softly.
“I,” you tried speaking, pausing for a moment as you felt his hand grip your thigh again, “I can handle it, do your worst?” He paused his actions to look up at you questioningly, huffing when you returned his gaze with a look of defiance.
“If you say so,” he hummed, releasing your nipple with a soft pop, “don’t say I didn’t warn you though.” You didn’t have time to react before he was grabbing your hips and pulling you down, adjusting so his head was between your thighs. You squirmed a bit as you felt his breath on your core, warm and teasing as he exhaled sharply. “I’ve barely even touched you and I can already tell you’re soaked,” he teased, running a finger up to the waistline of your fishnets. You squirmed more and whimpered as he leaned forward to place kisses against you through your panties, poking his tongue out just enough for you to feel it. “These tights are super sexy also,” he mused, “I may just have to keep them on you.”
“Will you stop teasing and just do something already?” you whined. One of your hands reached down to tug at his horn as you bucked your hips, desperate for any kind of friction. Jungkook growed lowly, slapping your thigh just hard enough for you to feel it.
“So impatient,” he hissed, “I shouldn’t be touching you at all until you behave.” You pouted for a moment, worried he was going to leave you there, until you felt his finger hook under your tights and panties. “It’s a shame I have to ruin these but oh well, since I’m so nice I’ll give you what you want.” With a quick tug the thin fabric was ripping and joining the remains of your dress, exposing your core to the cold air. Jungkook hummed softly before leaning down and licking at your slit, giving a few kitten licks before diving in and sucking at your clit. You moaned loudly and tightened your grip on his horn, grabbing the sheets with your free hand as you rocked your hips against his face. Jungkook responded by moaning against you, sucking harder and pinning your leg back with one of his hands. Your thighs shook and threatened to close around him but he kept you pinned with his weight, moving one hand and slipping a finger into you slowly. He slowly pumped his finger inside of you for a few moments before adding another, quickening the pace and curling his fingers. You gasped and jolted as his fingers brushed against that soft spot inside of you, Jungkook smirking and angling his fingers to abuse that spot. All you could do was throw your head back and grip onto him tighter as endless moans fell from your mouth, struggling to catch your breath as you felt your orgasm rapidly approaching. Before you could tell Jungkook you were close however, he was pulling away and looking up at you with a devilish grin.
“Remember what I said sweetheart,” he mused, pressing his fingers to your lips and humming as you took them into your mouth, “you don’t get to finish until I say so.” He let you suck on his fingers for a second, letting you taste yourself as your orgasm faded away. Only when he saw you relax did he move, wiping his fingers on his pants, “The only way you are cumming tonight is on my dick like a good girl, think you can do that?” You were too out of breath to respond so you simply nodded, though it seemed to be enough of a response for him. Jungkook leaned back and, with a snap of his fingers, stripped himself of his clothing and exposed himself to you for the first time. Your eyes widened as you sat up to get a better look at the gorgeous man in front of you. You knew Jungkook was built but you never realized just how defined his muscles really were, the tattoos on his arms trailed all the way up and across his toned chest which was otherwise unmarked. Your eyes moved down until they landed on his erection, surprisingly human for what you imagined if not longer than average. Still, it was beautiful and you bit your lip at the sight of him. “Like what you see?” Jungkook teased, chuckling when you dumbly nodded, “good, because you don’t get to see it much longer. Now be a good girl and present yourself to me, on your hands and knees.” You quickly obliged, getting on your knees and lowering your top half to expose yourself to him. Jungkook hummed in approval and positioned himself behind you, gripping your hips and lining himself up with your entrance.
“You’re not a virgin right?” he asked suddenly, making you giggle as you shook your head no, “good.” With that he leaned forward and buried himself into you, groaning and stilling as he bottomed out. You moaned at the stretch and buried your head into the sheets, trying to catch your breath and adjust to the feeling of him inside of you. Jungkook gave you a moment to adjust, starting to thrust slowly as he felt you relax. “You are so tight you’re practically swallowing me,” he groaned as his pace increased. You could only moan and grip at the sheets to keep you grounded, the position hiding your face and muffling your moans which he didn’t seem to like very much. A low growl left him and you felt him tug roughly at your hair, pulling your head up and exposing your neck to him. “Don’t you dare hide from me, let me hear you,” he whispered, going even faster and burying his head into your neck. You moaned louder at the pace and the feeling of him sucking at your neck hard enough that you knew there would be marks in the morning. You couldn’t bring yourself to care though, enjoying the feeling of him fucking into you like his life depended on it. His position also meant you heard every animalistic growl and groan that left him, not normally something you would enjoy but from him it was undeniably sexy. “You’re mine you know,” he groaned, “you belong to me, and only me, all mine. No one will get in between us ever again after tonight, everyone will know that you are mine, I’ll make sure of it.” He bit at a sensitive spot under your ear which made you gasp and close your eyes, knowing you wouldn’t be able to last much longer.
“Jungkook I,” you tried to speak up but found you were unable to finish your sentence.
“I know baby I know,” he murmured, “go ahead and cum for me.” His command was all you needed, letting out a silent cry as you finally reached your release. Jungkook was not far behind, stilling inside of you and growling as he finished inside of you.
ღ ღ ღ ღ ღ
Jungkook quickly but carefully pulled out of you and flipped your position so you were both laying down with you on his chest. His finger traced delicate patterns on your arm as you snuggled up against him, trying to catch your breath.
“I wasn’t too rough right?” he asked after a moment.
“Not at all,” you assured with a soft smile, “it was actually really hot seeing you all possessive.” You felt his chest rumble beneath you as he chuckled.
“Good to know, I’ll remember that for next time, if you want there to be a next time that is?” you stayed silent for a moment as you thought about it, trying to process how quickly everything seemed to change in the span of a night. Hell, not even a few hours before you were loathing Jungkook's existence and now you were here naked and curled up against him. The more you thought about it, the more you realized you really needed to assess your current relationship with the demon beside you.
“You’ll be bound to me for a while so I’m sure we’ll figure it out,” you said, realizing you had been quiet for too long. It probably wasn’t the answer he wanted, but he didn’t oppose it either. Instead you felt him pull you closer and place a gentle kiss on your head.
“I’ll clean everything up in a minute, you go ahead and rest and we’ll talk about everything in the morning, deal?” You didn’t need to be told twice, closing your eyes and letting his warmth lull you to sleep. You still had a lot to think about, but maybe being bonded to Jungkook wasn’t so bad after all.
This is one of three promised fics that will be uploaded within the next week as I do my best to catch up!
Any and all interaction and feedback on this work is greatly appreciated!

We had our team Christmas party/goodbye Ruth do today. and I need to show you what my friend at work made me for a leaving present because even for him it's a work of mad genius, I was just sitting there like WHAT. WHAT IS HAPPENING.
so you know, I get leaving gifts from my team, it's lovely, notebooks, pens, gift card, fond farewells, it's lovely, people say nice things about me
then my friend Zain says "I also got you something"
Now the thing to know about Zain is his party acumen is legendary. every year we're all resigned from the off to losing at Secret Santa because his gifts are insane. last year he made his secret santa a custom play set of one of our services in a branded box with tiny props. this year he made a custom Ken doll and box representing our colleague and it has a tiny collection bucket and a "collect them all!" sticker on the back where he'd found pictures of Barbies and Kens that looked like the rest of the Fundraising team. we'd just got done with a quiz where he made a custom video package, a Family Feud round with buzzers, and TWO Photoshop picture rounds. once. ONCE. we asked him to facilitate a team meeting and he wrote and animated a theme song. the man is insane. everything he does is so thoughtful, so labour intensive, and also so off the wall weird.
so I'm intrigued. especially since all he's holding is an envelope.
he says "I got you something. It's kind of an experience."
and hands me this letter.
(there's a bunch of good bits in here but I will particularly note that "It's going" has been his perpetual refrain for months every time I ask how it's going, to the point he usually doesn't even bother saying it any more.)
ok. I am confused. what is. THE DEVICE.
he puts THE DEVICE on the table. he hands me 4 cardboard floppy discs.
THE DEVICE is a large cardboard box. You will observe that THE DEVICE has an LED on the front. You may also observe that THE DEVICE has both a button. and a set of speaker holes.
this is because upon pushing the button on THE DEVICE, it makes a jaunty startup noise and an AI voice launches into a full minute setup speech before instructing me to load the included floppy discs into THE DEVICE. during the period of silence as I feed them into the slot, THE DEVICE says things like "ow, careful!"
THE DEVICE then makes loading noises, and instructors me to open THE DEVICE to see the contents of the discs.
inside the box, there are 4 gifts, each corresponding to a floppy disc and also to a conversation we've had at some point in the last 2.5 years.
this, of course, is in reference to my infamous Blobbyland post, and indeed to the fact that Zain, who is 3 years younger than me, actually FOUND OUT ABOUT MR BLOBBY from me taking about my popular Tumblr post
Gawrsh.zip references a conversation about Goofy dying in Kingdom Hearts, the first video game I remember finishing
EIGHT MONTHS AGO Zain asked me what my top 5 films of all time were and I said easy, Mirrormask, 10 Things, Angels In America, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Fury Road, boom. He's been just HOLDING THAT INFORMATION IN HIS HEAD FOR MONTHS.
the last one is my favourite. I was like oh no what could be in this poster tube cause what's left of the floppies is NIGHTMARE.EXE.
at my Halloween party last month, to which Zain was my only work friend who made it, we watched Nightmare on Elm Street and Zain, who had recently watched some video breakdowns on it, was pointing out humorous background details. and in the sleep therapist scene, both he and Tim pointed at the screen and started shouting TRAM CATS!!! and we were all losing our shit
the thing is there's a Very Weird poster in that scene. and now. now it's in my house also.
anyway I legit almost cried this may be the most unhinged and lovely gift that anyone has ever given me. I'm going to miss working with this weirdo so much.

I’m here to post shit and have fun!
In honor of Halloween! Here’s some stories to have fun with!
Anime: One Piece
Character: Crocodile
Monster: Gargoyle
Warnings: Crocodile’s rizz
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
“Alright…he said ‘Baratie, 11 PM.”
You wanted to scream. This man you’ve been dating, your so called boyfriend, had told you that he wanted to go with you to Baratie.
Here you were- in a shimmering black dress with a slit that went up your thigh, black high heels and a small clutch- waiting at your assigned booth for this man to appear.
For about 40-50 minutes now.
You had received a text from him saying that it was over and confirmed the fact that he was cheating thanks to a photo he posted with his tongue down another woman’s throat. You felt sad but then decided that your evening will not be spoiled thanks to that useless prick and his cheating tendencies. You texted him he had 24 hours to leave your apartment and that you’d give him consequences if he didn’t.
Thankfully you’ve known the owner of this establishment and after talking to him and explaining the situation (you were good friends with him and his partner), he slid a few drinks on the house for the unfortunate evening.
As the club changed its scenery, you changed as well.
Your hair turned to life as the little snakes that adorned it yawned and changed from laying down to curling up on top of your head. Almost like a top bun. You aided them by putting a soft thin silk scrunchy on your hair, sorta like a pillow for the little ones.
As a Gorgon- you needed to be careful.
Thankfully technology has gone a long way and now you could wear specially made eye contacts for a monster of your particularity.
Going out with Gorgons was a little hard with the whole ‘I’ll-turn-you-to-stone-with-just-a-glance’ detail. History managed to make sure that the Gorgon line went past its supposedly imminent demise after Medusa was slain.
Making it its own subspecies of society welcomed gorgon women. Not all of them had the same power but very few, like you, could do all of what Medusa did and more.
“Excuse me, but is this seat taken?”
You whipped your head to meet with this person but you felt your throat go dry.
A man that almost doubled you in height, broad chest and shoulders. A man so incredibly handsome that seemed to be the epitome of elegance, poise and a connoisseur of beauty.
Height, build, stare and tone of voice had you entranced and, honestly, it was intimidating.
“Might as well sit down, my date is late anyway.”
The soft chuckle that came from his throat was caught by your ears, earning a pink tinge on your ears.
“A woman as exquisite looking as yourself shouldn’t be sitting by her lonesome. Especially one that got stood up by an imbecile.”
He had you swooning and it’s only been 5 minutes.
“I hope you find me to be good company Mister…-“
“Crocodile. Call me Crocodile.”
‘More like big Daddy.’ You thought, taking the last sip of wine and about to order more but you were stopped.
“Waiter-“ he managed to stop a young employee before he zoomed past them. “I’ll have an Old Fashion and bring the lovely lady anything she desires.”
‘Holy shit, that was hot.’ You thought.
“Miss?”
“Oh-erhm- Whiskey. House sour mix, please.”
Once the waiter left, you were received by a a raised brow from Crocodile.
“You like spirits?”
“They kill the ghosts that haunt me- I’d say they are easily my favorite.”
The words kept being exchanged and the evening had progressed into a lovely one.
Until it was time to leave.
You felt a little empty on the inside when it was time to leave…at 4 in the morning.
“Well, Miss (L/N), I believe that this concluded our evening. I hope you found everything to your liking.”
“More than that. I had fun regardless the initial 45 minutes of waiting for a failed relationship. He was a waste of time and space, to be honest. But at least I had the pleasure of dining with someone of your caliber, Mr. Crocodile.” You said, whispering a secret that he so gingerly lapped up.
“Indeed. If you’d like, we can arrange another outing. One where you wouldn’t have to hide those beautiful eyes of yours.”
You sighed. Now at the door of your car and unlocking the vehicle in order to get in.
“If I let you see my eyes, you’d be petrified.”
“Oh, I wouldn’t worry about that. You’d find that we might have something in common.”
This poked at your brain.
“How so?” You asked, earning another low gravel chuckle from him.
“You turn men into stone. I am stone.”
You tilted your head and gasped when you saw it. When he took out his coat, wing could be seen clipped right in his shoulders. They looked Bat like but at the same time- thick to carry his weight. His slanted eyes shifted the pupils into slits and a bit of silver lined against the pupil. To differentiate where his eye and a let started. The skin of his hand was now heavy and soft, like polished stone.
“You’re a Gargoyle.” You mumbled, cheeks warm at the interesting development. You felt him push a little card against your hands and felt like you were a pile of goo on the inside.
“Here’s my card. Feel free to call or drop in. I hope to hear back from you, Miss (Y/N).“
With that you saw how his wings opened and flew off to his lair.
You had waited a few days to call him and set up a date.
To which he replied-
“I’ll come and pick you up at 10 PM. And Miss (L/N)? No contacts. I want to marvel in your raw beauty.”

Chapter 5
Lea insists that Hiyyih’s friends ride in an air taxi to travel to Montenevera. Most people would use a pokemon or travel on foot. This is a luxury you’ve rarely used. In the back seat you are squished into the middle seat between Jimin and Namjoon. You don’t let your mind wander thinking only about all the new things you are about to see and not the men whose thighs are pressed up against your own.
Things have been calm following the chaos of Halloween. No one has brought up what happened and you are happy things are back to normal. You think Namjoon has noticed something minorly different in how you interact with Jimin and Taehyung. He hasn’t said anything about it, though.
Instead he’s been joining you for study sessions in the library. Spending time with him is easy. He’s happy to sit beside you studying without saying anything for hours. Other times he’ll talk about the latest thing he’s learned in his grass type anatomy class until you are afraid he’s going to run out of breath. You never stop him. Somehow it’s not annoying when he’s the one doing it.
“If you look to the left you will see the mountains where Kai once almost lost a toe to frostbite.” Hiyyih says in her best tour guide voice from the front seat. “Thankfully, Lea had her Flareon and we were able to warm Kai up before he lost any toes.”
“How did that even happen? Shouldn’t he have known what to wear having lived in the snow his whole life?” Namjoon asks, looking through the tinted window next to him.
“He was going through a rebellious phase and thought he would be fine.” Hiyyih laughs and you can see her eyes light up as she looks at you in the back seat.
A few minutes later the car drops you at the edge of town and Hiyyih leads the way towards her childhood home. The house, which is more like an apartment really, is situated right above the bakery Lea owns and operates with the help of a few part timers. Montenevera is quite small so it doesn’t take long to reach the tall building. You are grateful it’s a short journey because it’s freezing. It’s much colder here than anywhere else you’ve ever been. The scenery is beautiful though. A pristine blanket of snow covers the ground, creating a winter wonderland around you. Behind you the laughter of children echoes through the air as the children add rocks for eyes on their snowman.
Ascending the narrow staircase above the bakery, you find yourself at the entrance of the Huening apartment. A gentle warmth welcomes you as you step inside, leaving the wintry chill behind. The aroma of freshly baked goods from below lingers in the air, adding a comforting touch to your surroundings. Hiyyih removes her shoes and you follow suit making room for Jimin and Namjoon to step inside.
“Lea!” Hiyyih calls out, pointing to the living room and instructing you to set your bags down there. The boys set their bags down and you follow suit. “I’m home!”
“Hiyyih, I’m in the kitchen.” You hear a soft voice call.
Jimin, Namjoon and you follow Hiyyih into the modern kitchen. The scent of freshly baked muffins wafts through the air creating an irresistible atmosphere. There is a marble island counter with tall chairs surrounding it. Hiyyih hugs her sister before she takes a seat and you take the seat beside her. Lea looks incredibly similar to Hiyyih, and it’s somehow more striking in person than from seeing photos.
“Hi, I’m Namjoon. I’m a big fan of your content. It’s so nice to meet you.” Namjoon sounds just the slightest bit nervous as he speaks.
You look over your shoulder to see a faint blush coating his cheeks. Does he know Hiyyih, jokingly, called him a fanboy? It's cute that this little interaction with Lea has him reacting this way. This is someone he has looked up to for quite some time.
“Nice to meet you.” Lea says placing muffins onto a plate before sliding it in front of you. “You must be YN and Jimin, right?”
Lea points as she says your names and you nod. Hiyyih choses a muffin and takes a big bite waving her hand to encourage the rest of your group to do the same. The muffins are even more delicious fresh than the packaged ones near school.
Hiyyih tells Lea about what Namjoon and Jimin are studying. Soon your two friends relax and animatedly talk with Lea. As Namjoon and Jimin engage in conversation with Lea, you admire the easy camaraderie between them. Everyone is at ease, cozy in Hiyyih’s childhood home. Laughter soon fills the kitchen as they exchange stories.
Quietly, you enjoy the delicious muffin, savoring the flavors as you listen to the conversations around you. Unlike some other adults of Lea’s status you’ve met, she is genuinely interested in hearing about Namjoon and Jimin’s experiences and what they have been learning about in school thus far. The boys feel welcomed and valued in this space, and you can see a spark of excitement glinting in their eyes as they share their passions.
The boys decide to go outside for a walk leaving just the girls in the kitchen still enjoying Lea’s muffins.
“So, YN,” Lea says shifting in her seat. “I heard from Hiyyih that you’re quite the Pokemon trainer. Have you beat her yet?”
You chuckle at Lea’s question, resisting the urge to side eye Hiyyih. Instead you look over to Hiyyih with a playful grin. “Not yet she’s been refusing to battle me, but I’m hoping she’ll let me take her on soon. What I’ve seen of her skills are legendary.”
Hiyyih smiles, a competitive glint shining in her eyes. “Stop flattering me. You’ll get a chance before we go back to school.”
“Finally!” You say rubbing your hands together like a super villain.
The topic easily shifts to battling strategies. Despite how good a rival she is going to be for you she is still your best friend. You eagerly discuss tactics with Hiyyih and Lea. They both tell you about their most memorable battles. Lea has much more interesting stories than you and Hiyyih. You think you could talk to her for days and she would still have stories of the adventures she’s been on.
Hiyyih leaves you alone with her sister and you feel awkward for a moment before Lea speaks up.
“Hiyyih has lost a lot of friends because she’s a better trainer than them. Some people can’t handle being friends with their competitors.” Lea’s face is very serious as she speaks. “She hasn’t battled you because she’s afraid it’ll happen again. I don’t think that’s going to be an issue here, but please be careful with her.”
“I think she’d be more insulted if I went easy on her.”
“Oh, that’s not what I meant.” Lea breaks into a smile. “Fight as hard as you can. You can kick her ass and still be her best friend.”
“I get it,” You say softly, nodding your head. “I’ll make sure to come with respect and consideration for her feelings. Hiyyih is really important to me.”
“Thank you.” Lea says, reaching out to touch your forearm that is resting on the counter. “You are really important to her too and I wouldn’t want both of your competitive natures to get in the way. It’s important to have other trainers with you on your journey.”
Before you can say another word you hear a shriek from outside, followed by the sound of laughter and playful shouts. Curious, you and Lea share a puzzled glance before hurrying to the window. You are greeted by the sight of Hiyyih, Namjoon and Jimin engaging in a spirited snowball fight. Through the crack of the opened window you can hear their laughter filling the air as they duck behind snowbanks. Trying to dodge snowballs while still throwing them at each other.
Lea chuckles at the scene with a fond smile lighting up her face. “They didn’t grow up near snow did they?”
“I don’t think it usually snows quite this much in Saffron City or Cherrygrove City.”
Lea nods, studying how they are playing for a moment.
“It looks like they are having a blast.” Lea remarks, turning to look at you with a playful twinkle lighting her eyes. “Care to join them?”
“Absolutely!” You grin, feeling a surge of excitement at the prospect of joining the fun.
It doesn’t snow in Cabo Poco. The only time you’ve seen real snow is when you were traveling with your parents. There wasn’t really anyone for you to play with like this.
After properly dressing yourself Lea laughs and pulls you outside. It’s truly like a winter wonderland and you are ready to embrace the joy and magic of this snowy adventure.
“YN, prepare to taste defeat!” Jimin calls winding up his arm to throw the lumpy white ball in his hand.
“Oh, it’s on, Jimin! Don’t underestimate my power.” You yell back hiding behind a wall of snow right outside of Cafe Huening.
“You might be a good trainer but I have years of experience!” Hiyyih yells hitting you squarely in the chest despite your position.
“Let’s show them what we’re made of!” Lea says from beside you already holding several snowballs.
She hands you one and you aim for Namjoon narrowly missing his ear. Namjoon opens his mouth in shock then lets out a loud laugh that fills you with joy. You sneak out of your sanctuary with snowball ammo in hand wanting to hear his laugh again. This time you get much closer and hit his back with expert precision. He turns around and before you can escape he grabs your wrist pulling you close with a wicked smile on his face.
Namjoon’s nose, as well as his cheeks, are flushed red from the cold. His deep dimples are visible as he can’t hold back a smile. He takes the snowball in his hand and smashes it against your head. A shriek loud enough for the whole street to hear leaves your mouth before you burst into giggles. You look into his eyes and his face softens. Namjoon’s heart feels like it might burst out of his chest. In his moment of distraction Lea hits him between the shoulder blades and you make your escape, throwing more snowballs in Jimin’s direction.
Twenty minutes later you are tired and in need of something warm. Lea suggests a ramen place just up the street and with rosy cheeks each of you follows her. The inside is warm and inviting after playing in the snow. You are greeted by the comforting aroma of simmering broth and savory noodles.
The hostess leads you to a booth where you scoot all the way to the wall. Namjoon sits next to you and Jimin next to him. Lea and Hiyyih take the other side looking over the menu as if they haven’t been here hundreds of times over the year. Each of them have different suggestions of what the best thing to order is. You take Lea’s suggestion as it sounds really good. The boys on the other hand make their own concoction with extra toppings.
As the group waits for their meals Lea asks about what you and your friends did in your hometowns growing up. Each of your hometowns is quite different from the town you are in now.
“My grandparents are from Cerulean City but when I was young my father moved us to Saffron City because he got a better job there. I spent a lot of summers with my grandparents tending to their garden and exploring the beautiful landscapes. In Saffron City though there was also something going on. My friends and I did lots of exploring and got into all kinds of trouble.”
Namjoon has never seemed like someone who belongs in Saffron City. His connection with nature never quite fit in your head, but it all makes sense now.
“It must be fun growing up somewhere where everyone doesn’t know your whole family history.” Hiyyih remarks then takes a sip of her water.
Instead of answering, Namjoon turns to look at you. Is he hoping you’ll also answer the question?
“Cabo Poco is really small. I liked spending long days playing on the sandy beaches and exploring the lush forests nearby. Yoongi and I used to go fishing and have picnics by the sea.”
Each of your friends tries to mask a lot of pity when you say your ex's name. None of them are quite successful, but thankfully Lea saves you from having to say anything else. Will you ever be able to talk about him without it feeling weird?
“It must be so nice having the ocean just down the road from you. I can just imagine the sounds of the waves and the scent of the ocean breeze.”
An ache lingers in your chest with a bit of homesickness. Perhaps you need to take a weekend trip home soon.
“What about you, Jimin? What’s Cherrygrove City really like?” Hiyyih asks, pulling the attention away from you.
“Kind of boring sometimes. I explored the forests a lot with my pokemon because there wasn’t much else to do. A lot of the time I would hang out at the pokemon center until Nurse Joy would let me help whatever poor pokemon she was treating. She became like a mentor and that really helped me learn the basics of what I’m studying now.”
“My pokemon centers would never let me do something like that.” Namjoon muses, crossing his arms over his chest.
The conversation shifts to lighter topics as the ramen bowls arrive, steaming and deliciously fragrant. The broth warms your insides adding to the overall cozy atmosphere. Hearing about their childhoods makes you feel that much closer to them. Namjoon rarely mentions his family so it’s interesting to hear how much he obviously adores his grandparents. Jimin launches into more interesting stories from his adventures in the forest while you begin eating your ramen.
When you make it back to the Huening apartment each of you heads to designated rooms to get ready for bed. Hiyyih and you are in Hiyyih’s room, Lea is in her own room and the boys are staying in Hiyyih’s father’s room. Mr. Huening is rarely home these days, always on another adventure in another region. He won’t mind Jimin and Namjoon using his room for a few days.
Once both you and Hiyyih have showered she joins you on her twin sized mattress. The walls of her bedroom are lined with pictures of different pokemon and medals she won from rookie pokemon battles. On her desk there is a picture of the three Huening siblings on the beach enjoying the sunshine.
“Your room at school looks nothing like this.” You comment looking over at her from your position sitting with your back against the wall.
“This is eighteen years of decoration. My home sanctuary that would be hard to duplicate at school.”
You tilt your head back without replying. Thoughts of today fill your mind and you are just so thankful you finally found a group of friends. What would you be doing right now if you hadn’t stumbled upon Hiyyih in the woods?
“I’m really glad we all met,” You confess, breaking the silence. “It feels like we’ve known each other for so much longer.”
Hiyyih nods in agreement, “It’s funny how life brings us together. I never thought I’d find genuine friends this easily after Kai became champion.”
With that you decide to go to sleep knowing Hiyyih has a packed day tomorrow. It's just cold enough in her room that it feels ten times more comfortable under her warm blankets.
In the morning you get out of bed first as Hiyyih looks through the notifications on her phone. Needing to use the restroom you walk out of Hiyyih’s room and run straight into someone. You look up and your heart races when you see the Pokemon League Champion trying to help you steady yourself. It’s easy to tell that he’s Hiyyih and Lea’s sibling. They all look similar but still unique in their own ways. Just like Lea, Kai is even more attractive in person. Instead of saying something like a normal person you run back into Hiyyih’s room after mumbling an apology.
“What happened?” Hiyyih asks, raising an eyebrow as she looks up from her phone.
You take a deep breath cursing yourself for getting so worked up over accidentally running into Hiyyih’s brother. He’s not a big pokemon champion in this house. This is his home and you shouldn’t make him feel uncomfortable in any way.
“I bumped into Kai.” You say quietly hiding your blushing face behind your hands.
“YN he’s literally just some guy!” Hiyyih exclaims loud enough for anyone in the hallway to hear.
She must think that Kai is still standing in front of the door.
“I heard that Hiyyih!” Kai shouts back.
After a moment, you muster the courage to step back into the hallway and properly introduce yourself to Kai. Like Hiyyih said at the end of the day he’s just some guy. Even if he is some guy that currently holds the title you are vying for. The one you’ve been dreaming of your whole life.
“Sorry about that. I didn’t think anyone else was awake yet. I wasn’t watching where I was walking.” A kind smile lights up his face and he shoves his hands into the pockets of his sweatpants. “I’m Kai. Nice to meet you.”
“Hi I’m YN. Nice to meet you too.”
Hiyyih appears next to you with her blonde hair in a messy bun at the top of her head.
“Now that we’ve got that out of the way let's make breakfast.”
The three of you head into the kitchen, the morning sunlight is casting a warm glow over the snowy landscape outside. Kai and Hiyyih insist that you don’t need to help them prepare breakfast since you are a guest. Instead you watch them for a few minutes before you walk into the room Namjoon and Jimin are using to wake them up. You knock three times before you enter. The two men are cuddled together in the middle of the bed. Jimin’s leg is slung over Namjoon’s hip and you feel like you are walking into something you shouldn’t see.
Loudly you clear your throat and that is enough to cause Namjoon and Jimin to stir from their embrace. Namjoon opens his eyes and quickly pulls himself away from Jimin when he sees you. Jimin opens his eyes and a confused look takes over, obviously disorientated by the sudden movement.
“Morning.” You say in a sing-song voice.
“Hey.” Namjoon mumbles, his voice husky with sleep.
“Is breakfast ready?” Jimin asks, stretching his arms upwards and revealing an inch of his toned stomach.
Don’t. You aren’t going to think about Halloween. This trip is supposed to be cleansing and not in that way.
“It will be soon. Come to the kitchen.” Before you duck out of the room you add. “Kai is here.”
You laugh at the way their eyes widen at the mention of the champion’s name, but you are sure they appreciate the heads up. Before they can say anything else you leave the room wondering if their cuddling was more than friendly. Since Halloween there isn’t a lot you would put past Jimin. Not that you would ever shame him. Everything he does just makes him all the more interesting to you.
When you return to the kitchen Kai asks you questions about where you are from and how you met Hiyyih. One pointed glance at you from Hiyyih tells you that she doesn’t want you to tell him how you actually met.
“We met in Battle Strategy class.” You quickly reply, seeing it as the most feasible lie.
“Does that mean you are going to take on the gym leaders?” Kai asks with a twinkle of excitement in his eyes.
“Yeah, I’m going to battle them this spring.” You say not letting an ounce of negativity get into your mind. “And you.”
Yes, there are a lot of variables until you get to where you can battle the first gym leader, but nothing is going to stop you. This is all you’ve wanted, all your life. It's the biggest and most important goal in your life.
“Can’t wait.” Kai says, seeming slightly shocked by your confidence.
Kai begins telling you about some of the different gym leaders and who wasn’t there when he was on his first go around. He continues making pancakes even while telling you detailed stories of when he was your age.
“YN likes fire types.” Namjoon says walking into the kitchen several minutes later.
Kai is talking about his own preferences and had just asked you if there was any one type that stood out to you. If it was anyone else answering for you it might piss you off.
“That’s true.” You say looking over at Namjoon with a smile as he sits beside you. “When I’m battling, though, I like to have a more diverse team. You never know what you might come across.”
The topic shifts as Kai asks the boys where they are from. Hiyyih serves the pancakes while Jimin is talking about his hometown. Even though he said it was boring yesterday, he has so many stories. Kai listens diligently asking questions when they are finished speaking. Being a champion has made him travel a lot. He knows exactly which restaurants Namjoon is talking about and has been to Jimin’s hometown a few times.
Lea walks in when you are helping clean up the dishes. It looks like she has already been in the bakery this morning. She informs her siblings that she’s going to take a shower then they can leave. They nod in agreement.
Everyone minus Lea gathers in the living room and the Huening siblings stand in front of you and start going over some ground rules for the photoshoot.
“Just behave yourselves.” Hiyyih says, drawing her eyebrows together in mock anger. “Jimin, don’t flirt with anyone.”
Kai looks at Hiyyih with a questioning gaze. He is definitely wondering a lot of things about Jimin. A lot of things that he should not be wondering about his little sister’s friend. He does seem to welcome these questions but Kai doesn’t think it’s right to ask when he barely knows Jimin.
“Please, just stay on the side.” Kai interjects before Hiyyih can continue. “Sometimes these photographers can be very stuffy. You should be able to watch from the sidelines and as long as you don’t cause a distraction.”
═════════∘◦❀◦∘══════════
When you arrive at the photoshoot location the three Huenings are quickly whisked away to hair and makeup chairs. Hiyyih pulls you along while Kai claims Jimin and Lea waves Namjoon over. It’s almost fascinating watching the way Hiyyih flips to professional mode as the makeup artist begins working on her. Apparently, Kai hires the same team to do their hair and makeup each time so Hiyyih knows her and is catching up.
Once the makeup artist is done telling Hiyyih about her kids, your best friend realizes maybe she should introduce you.
“This is Jieun. She’s been doing our makeup for about three years now. This is YN.”
After that you join into their conversation more. Jieun was surprised by the change in Hiyyih’s appearance since the last time she saw her. She tells her several times how much she likes it. It takes nearly an hour for the siblings to get through hair and makeup. Every once in a while you glance over to the other boys to make sure they are doing okay. Jimin, ever the social butterfly, is having no trouble finding things to talk about with Kai. Namjoon and Lea have been talking about grass for at least thirty minutes. Hiyyih really brought the perfect trio of people to make this day more fun.
The siblings head off into separate rooms to change and come out firstly in cute Christmas sweaters. An assistant leads you, Jimin, and Namjoon towards the set where the shoot is happening. As Hiyyih and Kai requested, you stand to the side out of the way. There is a cozy living room set in front of you.
Namjoon points to three chairs pushed against the wall.
“He just told me to sit over there.” Namjoon relays the message while pointing at a man with a headset and clipboard.
For the next several hours you watch the Huening siblings pose like it’s the easiest thing they’ve ever done. The three of them together look so powerful and beautiful. Even when they start bickering as siblings do they quickly get themselves back on track. You are immensely impressed that this girl you spend every day with could be a model if she wanted to. They take a few breaks where they jump back into conversations with you. Kai is kind and thoughtful, always worrying about whether or not you are comfortable. He knows this kind of environment can be stressful even if you aren’t in front of the camera.
“You’re so cool.” You say as Hiyyih leads the way back to the car. “I feel like I just saw a whole new side of you.”
“One that you won’t see again until next year.” Hiyyih says over her shoulder.
“But you have to do a photoshoot when you win champion.” Kai says from somewhere behind you. “Aren’t you going to challenge me this year?”
A loud sigh leaves Hiyyih’s mouth and she stops in her tracks wheeling around to look at her older brother. She is seconds away from stabbing her finger into his chest.
“You promised not to mention that until after the winter tournament!” Hiyyih says in a low tone embarrassed by her lack of confidence. “We don’t know if I’ll have the chance.”
This is the first time you have heard a lack of confidence about her future as a champion. She has made you think she’s convinced it will be you and her in the top two.
“So you don’t think you are going to win?” Kai asks with a teasing tone.
Hiyyih jumps, successfully getting her arm around the back of Kai’s neck. Her older brother bends down letting his head be captured under her arm. They continue squabbling for a few minutes before Lea steps in and pulls them apart.
“Get in the car.”
The younger Huening siblings follow Lea’s instruction ducking into the car.
═════════∘◦❀◦∘══════════
It’s dark outside by the time you return. The living room is bathed in warm light from the fireplace, and adorned with picture after picture of the Huening siblings growing up. Plush cushions and throw blankets litter the surface of the sectional giving it an even cozier feel. Someone transformed the room into a movie night haven while you were away. After taking a few moments to freshen up you head back to the living room.
“I really wanted Hiyyih’s friends to have a good time while they are here so I had a friend come in and do this for us.” Kai says looking around the room with a pleased expression.
The long wooden coffee table directly in front of the couch is covered with snacks. They prepared salty and savory popcorn along with a charcuterie board. They baked an assortment of cookies. There’s even gummy candies and chocolates each shaped like different pokemon. Lastly, you see a platter holding mojitos which you saw Namjoon and Jimin making just a minute ago.
You take a seat in one corner of the sectional. Namjoon sits beside you handing you a mojito with a proud smile pulling at his lips.
“Alright, what’s on the agenda tonight?” Hiyyih asks, with your favorite genuine smile of hers gracing her face, letting the sleeves of her oversized sweater cover her hands.
“Romantic comedy all the way.” Lea says and you nod enthusiastically. She is already clicking around with the remote to find what she’s looking for.
“Because nothing says fun movie night like watching people awkwardly fall in love.” Kai remarks sarcastically.
“Hey, it’s a classic formula for a reason!” You protest giving him a playful look of disapproval. He giggles into his hands like he doesn’t want you to see. “Not everything needs to be serious.”
“I’m on board.” Namjoon says, nodding his head. “Bring on the meet-cutes and cheesy one liners.”
Jimin raises his glass as all eyes turn to him. He has a sweet smile that adds nicely to his cozy look. It's no wonder he constantly has people fawning over him. Jimin constantly looks like a dream even in the most ordinary circumstances.
“To love and laughter!” He says and clinks his glass against Hiyyih’s, who happens to be closest to him.
Namjoon clinks his glass against yours then both of you take a sip. It’s actually really good. They made the perfect mixture so no one flavor is too overwhelming. Kai continues to sarcastically talk shit until the movie is queued up and ready to roll. You don’t believe he means a word that is coming out of his mouth after spending the day around him. Kai is quite the softie when he’s not battling. He settles back into the couch with a handful of gummy candies as the opening plays.
“Are most real life confessions as dramatic as they are in movies?” Hiyyih asks much later when the movie is coming to its climax. She is raising an eyebrow at the scene playing out on the screen. The male lead has had many failed attempts to confess his feelings and nothing was going his way. In the end he settles for giving her a bouquet of irises, her favorite flower, in front of the restaurant they first met at. “I can barely get people to say the words.”
“In my experience, yes. Besides, who wouldn't want a grand gesture?” Jimin grins, tossing a piece of popcorn into his mouth.
“Two out of four of my boyfriends.” Kai speaks casually as if the champion of the pokemon league isn’t dropping a huge bomb of personal information.
You, Namjoon and Jimin, who were all taking a sip of your mojitos, choke at the same time and the siblings erupt in laughter. Jimin sputters trying to form a sentence but is unsuccessful. Kai is cackling looking around the room.
“You didn’t tell them?” Kai asks, turning his head to look at his younger sister.
“Why would I tell them?! It’s not public information.” Hiyyih says, gesturing wildly with her hands.
“Oh, I guess that makes sense.” Kai says before turning to look at his sister’s friends. “So you know the elite four? We’ve been dating each other for a few years now. It’s not something that a lot of people would understand so we haven’t made it a big thing.”
Your mind spins with this new information as the group quiets down to continue watching the movie. Five of the most powerful people in Paldea are dating each other. You can’t help but wonder how they spend time with each other when each of them have so many jobs to do. Even more you wonder how this all came about.
Namjoon slings his arm over the back of the couch behind your head. Jimin moves, placing himself on the other side of Namjoon. Jimin cuddles into Namjoon’s side and the taller man shifts. Namjoon wraps his arms around Jimin letting him rest his head against his chest. Jimin really can get anyone he wants.
You don’t comment on their position but Hiyyih does give you a subtle side eye. There is no doubt she will talk to you about this later behind the closed door of her bedroom. It is a little strange seeing as up to this point Namjoon hasn’t been the most physically affectionate person.
Sipping your drink, you focus on the movie thinking it might be time to go to sleep when this is over. When the credits roll Lea stretches and is the first to bid the group goodnight and head off to her room. The rest of the group follows heading off to their designated rooms until you are left alone with Kai.
“You and Hiyyih are going to battle tomorrow.” He says softly. “Don’t go easy on her because she won’t be going easy on you.”
“I fight every battle with my full effort.” You reply feeling pride when a pleased look finds its way to Kai’s face. “Hiyyih would be insulted if I didn’t try my best.”
“I’m glad you two met each other.” Kai remarks, standing up. “I’ll see you in the morning. Goodnight.”
“Goodnight, Kai.”
For several minutes you sit with your thoughts planning what tactics to use against your best friend tomorrow. You two have been watching each other battle for months now. Hiyyih knows your battle style from an outside perspective, but she’s never actually battled against it. That is a big difference in your mind. You can know how a person battles but actually being on the receiving end is not always what you think it will be.
“Pretty crazy watching Hiyyih be a model, huh?” Namjoon says reentering the room and taking a seat beside you.
“It was fascinating seeing the girl I followed on social media before I met her instead of my best friend who is constantly just rolling out of bed before going to class.” You say leaning back against the couch with a sideways glance at the man sitting next to you.
He’s wearing a thin white shirt with baggy sweatpants. Namjoon’s hair has grown out longer than you’ve seen it before and you like it. There’s something soft about the messiness of it. A smile creeps onto his face.
“That’ll be you next year.” He says with unwavering confidence.
“Hopefully our trip to Kanto will give me even more of an edge on my competitors.” You reply noticing the way his face falls slightly when you mention his home region. Since you are alone in this cozy room and slightly tipsy you ask the question you’ve wanted to know the answer to for weeks. “When was the last time you went home?”
He stays silent for a moment threading his fingers together in contemplation. Namjoon looks into your eyes when he finally responds.
“I haven’t gone back to Kanto since I started here. But I don’t really think that’s what you want to know.” Namjoon raises an eyebrow and you stay quiet seeing if he will continue. “The spring before my last year of high school I was dating my first boyfriend. I thought things were going great, but for some reason he thought I was cheating on him. Which I wasn’t at all, I was very deeply infatuated with him, actually. I hadn’t come out to my parents yet but he was threatening to show them pictures of us together. So, I told them and they kicked me out.”
“Oh, Namjoon. I’m so sorry.” You say squeezing his forearm before gently pulling your hand away.
“I’m in a better place now, but the thought of going back still makes me…” He pauses making a face and not finishing that sentence before he continues. “I stayed at a friend’s place for a while until I could rent something for myself and while I was there I met my ex. Which didn’t end on the best of terms. So, there’s a few reasons why I'm nervous to go back. Especially because we are staying in my hometown.”
You consider your words for a moment. The last thing you want to do is say the wrong thing during this sensitive moment.
“That sounds incredibly tough, Namjoon,” You say, empathizing with his situation. “It’s understandable that you’re nervous, but remember you’ve grown so much since you left. You’re smarter and stronger.”
Namjoon nods a small smile appearing on his face again. “Yeah, you’re right. I shouldn’t let the past hold me back.”
“Exactly,” You reply, reaching over to squeeze his arm again. His smile grows wider at your reassuring gesture. “And you won’t be alone. Jimin and I will be there to support you.”
“I’m glad I have you with me.” Gratitude is evident in his eyes. He reaches over and pats your head with one of his big hands. You scrunch your nose in distaste whining when really the gesture warms your heart. Namjoon stands up stretching his arms above his head. “Okay, I’m going to sleep. Lea is getting us up super early. Sleep well, YN.”
“You too, Joon.”
You don’t miss the flicker of light in his eyes before he turns away walking back to the room. Did he like that you used a nickname? Another thing for you to think about more than you should. For several more minutes you sit there before getting up and turning off the lights.
Hiyyih is already asleep when you quietly enter the room. You slip under the blankets with her and fall into a peaceful sleep. Your dreams are filled with ocean and water pokemon you want to learn everything about.
Lea is the first one awake in the morning. She takes Namjoon and Jimin down to the cafe to give them a crash course on some of her most popular items. By the time you, Hiyyih and Kai wake up they are already downstairs working away.
“Where are we battling?” Hiyyih asks as you eat breakfast in the kitchen.
“Hoseok isn’t battling any trainers today so he’s allowing us to use the gym’s court.” Kai replies, peeling the tangerine in his hand.
Hoseok Jung is the leader of the Ghost Gym. He is highly skilled and not many trainers make it past his gym. He has a large social media following and streams nearly every battle he takes on. Watching his streams has taught you a lot over the years. It’s an honor that he’s allowing you to use his space. You wonder if these are the kind of perks that have always been a normal part of Hiyyih’s life since Kai became champion.
“Oh, wow. That’s so nice of him.” You say looking over to Kai in wonder.
Kai shrugs his shoulders, because this is definitely a normal part of his life. Hiyyih changes the topic asking Kai about a trip he went on recently. When Kai starts talking about fire pokemon you focus more on what he is saying.
Once you are finished with breakfast Hiyyih drags you back to her room to get ready. The battle court is located outside just to the side of the actual gym building so you layer up knowing you aren’t built for the cold.
“There might be a few people watching this battle.” Hiyyih says, pulling a gray beanie onto her head. “Anytime people know Kai is home they will gather outside the gym to see if he will battle Hoseok. He might be watching as well. I’m not sure though Kai wouldn’t tell me.”
The thought of the current champion and a gym leader watching you battle does make you just a little bit nervous. This is just one battle and as much you want the people watching to be impressed that is not the most important part. Growing your skills and having fun is what you want to focus on.
“We better put on a good show then.” You say with a playful smile.
When you are properly dressed the two of you meet Kai outside. He leads the way to the Ghost gym which is right up the road from their home. It’s a path Hiyyih and Kai have walked many times, but you study the beautiful buildings covered in snow.
The battle court is covered ensuring no snow will cover the floor. As Hiyyih said there are a few people milling around the court waiting for any sign of action. A rumble passes through the crowd when they recognize the champion approaching, but they are respectful. The small crowd steps away from the battle court leaving a clear path for you and Hiyyih to enter. The air is filled with excitement as the two of you take opposite sides.
Kai joins the crowd on the side nodding to you and Hiyyih that it's okay to begin. Your eyes sweep the crowd then up the tall building adjacent to the court. On the balcony you recognize the Ghost gym leader wearing his signature black jester hat. In just a few months he will be on the other side of this court facing off with you.
You take a deep breath and step up to the center circle. Hiyyih joins you with a confident smile and you shake her hand squeezing just a little harder than necessary. She laughs before her face drops back to her focused face.
“Good luck.” You say in unison with Hiyyih.
Both of you step back to opposite ends of the court waiting for the first move to be made. When she stands there with a calculated look on her face you decide to take the lead.
“Sriracha, go!” You call throwing your pokeball forward.
Your fiery Charmander roars to the best of their ability standing proudly. Their tail flickering with a powerful flame. To the side you hear a murmur in the crowd. It's possible many of them have never seen a Charmander in real life.
“Kepi, I choose you!” Hiyyih says, planting her feet as her pokemon appears.
Her Pachirisu is energetic, as always, with a determined look in his eyes. The small crowd ooo’s at Hiyyih’s prized pokemon. Your heart races with adrenaline. You are finally battling your best friend and you couldn’t be more excited.
“Sriracha, show them your hottest Flamethrower!” You command, pointing dramatically at Kepi.
“You’ll need more than flames to scorch my baby.” Hiyyih smirks but quickly calls, “Dodge and hit back with Spark.”
Sriracha unleashes a powerful stream of flames, but Kepi manages to dodge most of the attack darting away from the flames. Hiyyih’s Pachirisu only takes minor damage. It would be a lie if you said you aren’t a little irritated. Her pokemon dodged most of the attack so easily.
Kepi retaliates, crackling with electricity. Sriracha tries to evade, but is too slow and gets hit. They shake it off and prepare for the next move.
“It’s okay, Sriracha. We can do this!” You call to your pokemon. Thinking quickly you shout another move. “Ready? Fire up, use Ember!”
Sriracha blows fire towards Kepi and hits him in a way that almost consumes him. The Pachirisu is still standing when the ember burns off and you see an opportunity. As Hiyyih commands her pokemon to use spark again you call back Sriracha and her attack misses.
“Spark, your turn!” Your Luxio leaps confidently onto the battle court with a growl, awaiting your call and you know just the move to finish off the first round. “Let’s give them a shocking welcome with Thunder Fang!”
Ordinarily, an electric type move on an electric type pokemon is not very effective, but Spark is stronger than Kepi. Spark pounces, his fur crackling with electricity, and catches the Pachirisu. When the electric bite pulls away Kepi falls to the floor.
For the first time you look into Hiyyih’s eyes and can see frustration. She takes a deep breath recalling her fainted pokemon. If you didn’t know her so well you don’t think you would be able to see the subtle shift in her demeanor as she plays confident again. Her eyes flick to the side in search of her brother before she speaks.
“Looks like you’ve got some bite, Spark. But let’s see how you handle Riot.” Hiyyih’s jewel eyed Sableye takes the court looking devious as ever. “Shadow Claw, now!”
Riot lunges forward, slashing Spark with her claws before he can dive out of the way. Spark winces, a sound you never like to hear, but quickly retaliates with Crunch at your command. Your Luxio sinks his teeth into Hiyyih’s Sableye and you can see just how shaken the other pokemon is when Spark returns to your side. Much more shaken than she should be from just a bite. How much stronger is Spark than Hiyyih’s team?
Hiyyih calls for Shadow Claw once again, as you thought she would, but Spark is ready to dodge this time. Riot almost looks confused when her claws don’t land. You use this to your advantage not wanting to waste a second.
“Good job, Spark! Now let’s finish her off.” You watch the way Hiyyih is scanning the court desperately trying to find a way to catch the upper hand. “Thunder wave.”
Riot faints as soon as the electric wave hits her and a frustrated sigh leaves Hiyyih’s lips. You want to look at the crowd, and more specifically her brother, but you keep your focus forward. Even the smallest distraction could mean the difference between winning and losing this battle.
“You really downplay yourself don’t you, Y/N?” Hiyyih questions, before calling out her final pokemon. Her Piloswine graces the battle court looking entirely not menacing. “Nicolas, let’s chill things out with an icy attack.”
“Ice, huh?” You say with a chuckle, preparing an attack thinking Spark can take more.
“Nicolas, freeze Luxio with Ice Beam!” Hiyyih calls with a cocky grin gracing her face.
Somehow that mammoth of a creature moves quicker than Spark beaming ice straight into your pokemon. The damage is too intense for Spark to handle and your heart drops as you watch him faint on the cold floor of the battle court. Suddenly, you are wondering why you didn’t call Sriracha out the moment you saw an ice pokemon.
“Sriracha, time to shine again!” Your Charmander takes their place in front of you and you have the confidence that this could be the last move. “We are almost done. Put all your power in and use Flamethrower!”
Sriracha builds the flame inside themself for a moment before pouring flames across the battle court. You can feel the heat radiating off the fire as it engulfs Hiyyih’s Piloswine and a smile creeps onto your face. Hiyyih was too late to call the dodge and when Sriracha lets up her pokemon barely moves.
“Use Ice Beam!” Hiyyih commands with anger seeping into her voice.
She waits watching as Nicolas tries to do as she asked, but she is too weak. She faints and Hiyyih rushes to her side touching her smoldering fur. The crowd cheers and you look over to see even more people have gathered since the battle began. Namjoon, Jimin, and Lea are standing beside Kai with proud smiles on their faces.
When Sriracha cools down you scoop them up kissing their head as you walk to the other side of the court. Hiyyih has recalled her pokemon and is smiling up at you as she watches you walk over. You set Sriracha down a few feet from Hiyyih.
“Guess I need to train a little harder.” Hiyyih murmurs sheepishly.
You hold out a hand, which she takes, and help her get on her feet. Her cheeks are flushed from the cold air but there is a sparkle in her eye. No matter if she’s upset that she lost, she still had fun. This is what she loves doing even when it’s hard.
“Hiyyih, that was a great battle!” You say releasing her hand and patting her back. “Your pokemon are tough.”
“You too!” Hiyyih replies, walking with you to the edge of the battle court. “Spark is a lot stronger than I expected. Let’s train together when we go back to school.”
“You bet! I’m so glad you are ready to train with me now.” You are sure there is a competitive glean shining in your eyes. It can’t be helped, this battle is making you hungry for more battles. If this wasn’t supposed to be a get away you’d walk into the forest right now and battle every trainer you come across.
“Let’s get you two to the pokemon center.” Kai says, stepping up onto the battle court. “Nurse Joy will be able to help us.”
═════════∘◦❀◦∘══════════
Thankfully, the injuries sustained during your battle are nothing major. You and Hiyyih leave your pokemon there after the battle before exploring her hometown more. The rest of your friends follow along listening to Kai and Hiyyih tell stories of their childhood.
“I always assumed you were good,” Namjoon says when everyone else is quite a few steps ahead of you. “But I was really impressed watching you battle. You have a real talent for understanding your pokemon. Keep trusting your instincts and your bond with your pokemon. I think it’ll get you far.”
“Thank you, Namjoon.” You smile, feeling a warm sense of pride. “It means a lot coming from someone as knowledgeable as you.”
Namjoon comes closer letting his hot breath fan over your ear. Though you can’t see it you know there is a smirk gracing his plump lips as your heart stupidly reacts to his proximity.
“Don’t tell Hiyyih but I think Kai was secretly rooting for you. He looked a little too excited when you took down her Sableye.”
When he pulls away and you laugh because there is no way the champion would be rooting for you over his own sister.
“Sure, whatever you say, Joon.” You roll your eyes playfully and Namjoon smiles back at you.
In a few hours you will have to leave this snowy escape and go back to school. Back to studying for the finals that are looming over your head. Back to wondering exactly how this trip to Kanto is going to play out. Today’s battle gave you the confidence that you won’t be a complete fuck up.
Your friends in front of you stop and you look up to see we have made it back to Hiyyih’s home. They lead you inside the cafe and Namjoon spills the details of their morning baking with Lea. He was much better at knowing what might work together than the actual baking part. Jimin was good at that part, according to Namjoon.
Hiyyih grabs Namjoon’s attention behind the counter and he excuses himself to see what she wants, leaving you alone at a table. Jimin joins you and you throw caution to the wind and ask him what was on your mind last night.
“Anything going on with Namjoon? You two have been awfully cuddly.” You keep a not chalant expression despite your deep wanting to know.
“Why, YN, are you jealous?” Jimin teases and when he doesn’t get the reaction he wants he continues. “It’s not like that. I like being held and he was there and willing to hold me. He did talk about you though. He talked about–”
Jimin cuts himself off when he sees Namjoon returning to your table with pastries. He giggles knowing you want to know what he has to say. Jimin instead tells you everything he talked with Lea about this morning and how they barely made it in time to watch you battle.
“Namjoon insisted that we needed to watch you battle even when we were in the middle of learning about fire supplements from Lea.” Jimin says with a mischievous smile like he knows he is exposing something Namjoon wouldn’t have told you himself.
A faint blush covers Namjoon’s cheeks as he sputters a response about how Jimin is exaggerating. Of course, you want to believe what Jimin is saying. It’s a confidence boost that a guy like Namjoon would go out of his way to watch you battle your best friend.
Hiyyih and Lea appear with gift baskets full of goodies in their hands. Lea is adamant you can’t leave empty handed. Kai pulls up a chair enjoying pastries with the group before you have to go back to school. For a few hours you sit in the bakery enjoying the sweet scents and warm conversations.
“I’m looking forward to battling you this spring.” Kai says when Hiyyih is out of earshot. Handing you a folded up piece of paper. “Take Lea’s number, she's a lot easier to reach than me. When you come back you are welcome to stay here.”
“I will train my hardest so I can give you a good battle.”
With that you step away from Kai and out into the cold behind your friends. Hiyyih leads the way to the pokemon center and you feel a bit of sadness creeping in. Exploring this new place and creating memories here has been a lot of fun.
═════════∘◦❀◦∘══════════
It's dark by the time you make it back to school and go your separate ways. Instead of resting you begin studying for your impending finals. Going into winter break you don’t want there to be any room for regret. So you will do everything in your power to make sure you are prepared for whatever they throw your way. The next few days consist of a strict schedule of class, eating, studying and two hours of pokemon training. Your friends try to pull you away for some fun but you don’t let them. It isn’t until Friday that someone manages to pull you out of your routine and it is not someone you expect.
“Hey, YN.” Jungkook says jogging to catch up with you. “Do you want to go to Los Platos with me?
It's early afternoon and you have already finished your classes for the day. You were taking a walk before Jungkook came up to you. It could be good for you to take a break and explore a new area. Who knows what you might find? You’ve been thinking about what pokemon you want on your team lately and there are some different types in that area.
“Yeah, let's go!” You say excitedly watching as he releases an Aerodactyl. Your eyes widen, fascinated by this pokemon you’ve never seen in person before. You had heard of people having them, but you almost thought it was a myth. “Where did you catch that?”
“Hop on!” He says mounting the pokemon’s back. Cautiously you follow him onto the back of his pokemon. Jungkook commands the Aerodactyl to fly to Los Platos and the pokemon gently lifts off the ground. “Ian is an Aerodactyl so I didn’t really catch him per se. I was traveling through the mountains of Kanto two years ago and happened across some old amber. I took it into the Pewter Museum of Science and a very nice scientist was able to regenerate him for me. It took a few weeks but eventually he accepted me and I was able to bring him home.”
You grasp at the fabric of Jungkook’s hoodie as Ian climbs higher and higher in the sky. He looks back concerned but you take a deep breath to calm yourself. The view from up here is absolutely beautiful.
“Sorry, it’s been a long time since I’ve flown on a pokemon.” You yell over the loud wind. “I need to hear more about your adventures in Kanto!”
The rest of the trip to Los Platos Jungkook tells you about the summer trip he took two years ago. He met a large variety of people and pokemon. People opened their homes and let him stay as he traveled around the region thirsting for knowledge. Jungkook thinks that trip is a big part of why he is such a strong trainer now.
Los Platos is nearly the perfect middle between your hometown and Mesagoza. Just like your hometown there is not much to see or many people. That’s okay, though. You are here for what lies outside of town. Before heading out of town you check your bag making sure you have enough antidote and potions. In your research you found there are many poison types in this area. A poison or ground type would be a great addition to your team.
“What was it like meeting Kai Huening?” Jungkook asks as you make your way out of town towards a nearby lake where you think you might find a Wooper.
A smile creeps onto your face and you let Pixie out of her ball before you answer. She happily follows along occasionally stopping to study plants.
“I was really nervous at first, but at the end of the day he’s just some guy.” You say and hurriedly continue when you see the confused look on Jungkook’s face. “He’s just like you and me. Kai just happens to have the coolest job. He is really kind and thoughtful. I truly don’t think we could have a better champion.”
“Do you think someone is going to dethrone him this year?” Jungkook asks, releasing a tiny Cutiefly that rests on his shoulder as you continue on.
“I do.” You say and he raises an eyebrow at you. With a joking tone you continue. “Obviously, it’s going to be me.”
For sometime after that each of you goes quite looking for the right moment to capture or battle any wild pokemon. Jungkook battles a few times showing off his skills with an ease that doesn't come natural to most people.
Your eyes scan the area as you approach the muddy banks of the lake. In the distance you can see water types hovering just under the surface. The slightest movement from under the mud draws your eye and you quickly retrieve a pokeball from your backpack.
With a steady hand you grip the pokeball waiting for another sign of movement. It takes a few seconds, but soon you are able to lock in and aim for the unknowing pokemon. The pokeball lands in the mud capturing the pokemon. You hold your breath waiting for the ball to be still before you pick it up. You’ve captured exactly what you wanted according to your pokedex, a Paldean Wooper.
The brown creature has purple bone-like appendages on each side of their head. Woopers in Paldea are different from those in other regions. In ancient times, Wooper lived underwater in the Paldea region. After what seemed like a losing struggle for territory, they began living in bogs on land. To keep from drying out while living on land, the Woopers began to cover their bodies with a poisonous film.
Jungkook turns around from where he was chasing after his pokemon with an impressed look. Luck must be on your side for you to have caught that pokemon so easily. Wooper’s can be hard to catch sometimes especially for someone like you. In your time as a trainer you have only caught a handful of pokemon.
“Did you just sneak attack a Wooper?” Jungkook asks, practically jumping in his excitement.
A rush of adrenaline hits you and you break out into a huge smile. You did just sneak attack a Wooper and successfully caught it! Your team is growing and your cool classmate is excited with you.
“I guess I did.” You laugh no longer holding back the excitement coursing through you.
Not wanting to let this energy go to waste you run away and battle the first pokemon that jumps out at you. Jungkook and you spend a few hours battling wild pokemon and laughing together. It’s the first fun thing you’ve done all week and it feels so good. Productive fun in a new environment with a cool new friend.
As the sun begins to set, you check the area around the lake and find a quiet spot with no wild pokemon lurking nearby. You and Jungkook release all your pokemon, letting them roam around and play while you enjoy the view. The sky is slowly transitioning from blue to a canvas of beautiful oranges, pinks and purples as the stars begin to appear.
The two of you lay beside the lake in comfortable silence, taking in the sights and sounds of the evening. The gentle lapping of the lake against the shore, the chirping of crickets, and the occasional call of pokemon in the distance fill the air.
“I’m glad we came here.” You say, breaking the silence. “It’s been a minute since I’ve really relaxed.”
“Me too,” Jungkook replies, turning his head to look at you. “It’s hard to relax when I’m constantly wishing I was better. It’s nice to get away for a moment and just have fun doing what we love.”
You smile at him, feeling grateful for his friendship even if it's fresh. As the night sky fills with stars you and Jungkook talk about everything and nothing, enjoying each other’s company and the peacefulness of the moment. Eventually, the cool night air starts to settle in, and you both decide it’s best to head back to school.
Jungkook calls for his Aerodactyl, and you both climb onto its back, ready for the journey home. With a powerful flap of its wings, the Aerodactyl takes off into the night sky, carrying you both back to school. As you fly through the night, you can't help but feel grateful for the experiences of the day and the friendship you've found in Jungkook.
═════════∘◦❀◦∘══════════
Only once your last final is turned in the following Friday do you allow yourself to hang out with all your friends. Hiyyih bursts through your door as soon as you open in demanding that you spend time with her. Of course, you oblige because you really need a night to let loose after the stress you’ve put yourself under to finish this term strong.
“You don’t have to beg. Let’s go to Taehyung’s early birthday party then tomorrow you can help me pack for Kanto.” You say, already looking for what to wear.
“Good, I’ve been worried you were going to die of stress.” Hiyyih replies, lounging across your couch.
“I thought so too for a minute. Then Jungkook randomly asked me to go to Los Platos with him.”
Hiyyih looks very confused, which makes sense as you’ve barely talked to anyone in your drive to get the best scores possible. You recount the night you had together and Hiyyih seems to relax even further knowing you were in good hands.
The two of you eat a light dinner and spend a good few hours getting ready together. It’s a good time to catch up on what everyone else has been doing.
She helps you decide on a simple outfit then you are off to Mesagoza. Taehyung has rented a club out for his early birthday celebration. You think he must’ve invited everyone he knows when you step into the packed club. Quickly, you spot the birthday boy standing near the DJ with Jimin on his arm and Namjoon standing close beside him.
You pull Hiyyih along with you as you weave through the crowd of dancing people. Namjoon spots you first and waves with a big smile. His black shirt is clinging to the contours of his pecs and his short sleeves show off just how massive his biceps are.
Taehyung and Jimin sandwich hug you and from there you get lost in the festivities. Tonight you will be free and have fun without making any bad decisions. You dance with lots of people and have lots of drinks. Giving extra attention to your friends who you’ve been neglecting all week. Nights like this make all the stress and effort worth it. At the end of the day you have a truly great group of people who care about you.

‧₊˚✧ HB 2024 EPISODE PREDICTIONS ✧˚₊‧
Ah, S2A has completed with the release of EP7. Chef’s kiss! I have another post where I predicted the release dates of the S2B episodes, I was a few days off, but got pretty close with this one, lol!
Anyway, this is a post predicting the plots for the episodes we can expect in 2024, going off of the titles!
PLOT PREDICTIONS :
A few months back, Vivziepop revealed the names for the rest of the episodes in S2:
We can expect 5 episodes this year if everything goes to plan! Let’s analyze these titles. Hopefully we receive a 2024 trailer soon so we can get a sneak peak at what the team is working on, but until then let’s give it our best guess!
S2 EP8 - THE FULL MOON “🌕”
Oh boy, this episode is going to wreck me. Interestingly enough, I’ve seen some fans theorize that this is actually a Loona episode, but the main consensus is that this is an episode focusing around Stolitz. There arrangement does take place during the full moon, after all.
The episode is most definitely going to involve Stolas confronting Blitz with the Asmodeous crystals, purposing an end to their agreement.
I can see this episode ending one of two ways:
1 : Several things are left unsaid as Stolitz refuses to communicate their feelings and concerns. (I think I speak for a lot of fans when I say that this would finish Stolitz for me, at least until a positive new development in the relationship.)
2 : Stolitz communicates and comes to understand each others concerns, creating hope for a healthy relationship in the future.
Fortunately for us, I don’t think the writers goal is to step on Stolitz any longer. The idea of this being an episode completely dedicated to their relationship gives me hope that we will receive a happy ending. Even if they don’t kiss and make up, at the very least I believe things that need to be said will be said. Maybe it is simply wishful thinking, but my prediction is that this episode will be a win for the ship.
S2 EP9 - APOLOGY TOUR “🍻”
Hmm, this episode will certainly be a unique one but I am excited for it nonetheless. The most common theory I see for this episode is that Blitzø will “tour” around, rushing to apologize to everyone he has wronged. I take issue with this theory.
Helluva Boss episodes are 11-30 minutes in length, how is that much character development going to take place in such a short period of time? I must say, that would be a new level of bad writing. I’m not going to say with certainty that the show couldn’t make it work, but I don’t think this plot is likely.
This episode might instead focus on simply one person Blitzø owes an apology too. Although I’m itching for a Verosika/Blitzø friendship, I’m getting Barbie Wire vibes. Bringing Barbie to various places and spoiling her as an act of peacemaking seems like a very Blitzø thing to do.
S2 EP10 - GHOSTF**KERS “👻”
Originally, there was no doubt in my mind that we would see the return of the D.H.O.R.K.S in this episode, judging by the play on “Ghostbusters”.
The organization might have backup this time after they gathered the evidence in S1 EP6.
The Imps- aren’t ghosts though. I’m still relatively certain that the D.H.O.R.K.S will be the ones doing the ghost hunting, I’m just curious as to how this crosses over with our protagonists.
An alternate theory not involving the D.H.O.R.K.S is where a job gets I.M.P involved with ghosts, perhaps in a haunted house or something similar? The spooky themes would be welcomed, as my running theory is that this episode is intended for Halloween 2024.
S2 EP11 - MASTERMIND “🔥”
Ah, interesting title. Mastermind, as in an extremely intelligent person. For example, a scientist or scientists. Could Lyle Lipton and Loopty Goopty make a reappearance? They seemed more like one-off characters to me, but a comeback would be fun.
An alternate theory I have comes from the emoji, a flame. Fire is involved? Maybe this “mastermind” is a new character. Perhaps we will meet Satan, the sin of wrath? Sounds pretty fiery to me!
S2 EP12 - SINSMAS “😈”
A Christmas episode? How lovely! This episode could go anywhere, all we can say for certain is that it will be festive.
You know what I want? Fluffy Stolitz, kissing in the snow… but what are the chances of something so perfect? :,)
Jokes aside, if this is the season finale it is likely a significant episode. I don’t believe anything terrible will happen (c’mon, it’s a Christmas special) so we can only hope for a wholesome and positive conclusion to the season!
Shoot, I need to include an actual solid theory? Umm… Blitzø will dress up as Santa at some point during the episode. There! How’s that?

The Steam Tunnels - Part 1 - The Door of No Return
_In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that. I go to prepare a place for you._
Morpheus had just posted a new message. It seemed that he was announcing some of his plans. And I knew exactly where he was going. I had been keeping an eye on Scott ever since I had learned that he was Morpheus. His interest in the steam tunnels, and security plans for Halloween night had gotten more intense and clear over the last week. Tonight, he had requested off, claiming that he had mid-terms he was behind on studying for. I had, of course, granted it, suspecting he might be up to something else. Now, I had confirmation.
I headed to the steam tunnels, a back entrance I had learned about years ago, when I was a student coordinating the steam tunnel Halloween party. Now, I was using it to foil it. When I had left school, I had made sure to anonymously inform the administration of the party and some of the ways that students snuck into the otherwise closed steam tunnels. I had not, however, provided the administration with everything I knew, keeping a few secrets for myself.
I had showed Scott one entrance, in the basement of the math building. A few student groups kept materials down there, so, the tunnels had been fenced off with a grating and locked barred door. Just beyond that, a small set of offshoot tunnels connected with the large main loop that connected all of the buildings. This was the most likely place that Scott would try and investigate first, as it was the least likely to attract suspicion; the distance from places where students should legitimately be to off-limits areas was very short, and not monitored.
I pulled out my phone and tapped into the campus surveillance system, and shortly got a note that Scott has used his badge to access the department office.
Scott arrived at the office wearing a pair of faded blue jeans held up with a belt, a dark grey t-shirt, and white tennis shoes. He looked nothing like he normally did when he came to work, when he normally wore a polo shirt and slacks, looking very profession. Scott grabbed a hoodie from the closet in the locker room, a set of clothes normally used if something unexpected happened during shift.
I watched him on the camera grab one of the sets of master keys, and slip out. About 5 minutes later, I saw him unlock a side door and slide into the math department building.
In the steam tunnels, there were several large storage rooms, which I had found perfect for hosting my parties. I positioned myself in the one closest to the math department entrance. The door was a large metal sliding door, hung from a track above the door frame, and rolling with large wheels. I hid behind a stack of boxes near the door, and stashed my bag of restraints at my feet.
_Everything was going perfectly. Officer Lawson had given me the night off, I had waited until everyone was out on rounds to sneak into the department office and grab keys and a hoodie to disguise myself a bit. Officer Lawson had been showing off his knowledge of campus, and had accidentally let slip that the easiest way into the steam tunnels was from the basement of the math building. I got in a side door, and encountered no one as I walked the silent halls, down the steps, and finally found myself standing at the barred gate blocking entrance to the tunnels._
_The master key slid into the lock, and the bolt retracted easily. I quickly opened the gate, darted to the other side, and let it close and lock behind me. The sounds of the gate squeaking echoed down the tunnels, but, aside from my heavy breathing and quiet footsteps, I heard no other sounds down the tunnels. I ducked down the short tunnel, disappearing from view of the rest of the basement. I pulled out my flashlight, and started cautiously perusing the area._
_I was surprised just how hot the tunnels were. Despite no longer being actively used, they were still connected to the waste heat of the nearby factory. I had learned from research that this factory had a very symbiotic relationship with our school, hiring many of us, and donating heavily to the school. It made sense that the symbiosis extended here, to taking away their waste heat. However, this made my hoodie immediately unnecessary, and very quickly uncomfortable. I took it off and stashed it back at the offshoot that led to the math department, figuring I could come back to it when I was done. I continued in just my grey t-shirt and faded blue jeans, my new shoes slightly scuffing as I walked down the surprisingly smooth concrete floor._
_The next obstacle was worse. As I walked down the tunnels, I heard some noises up ahead, and pushed myself up against the wall, directly into some bolts protruding from brackets that held various steam pipes in place along the walls. I stifled a cry, and listened carefully for any other sound. It turned out to just be a couple of rats whose skittering had been reflected many times in the tunnels, sounding much larger by the time it got to me. I relaxed a bit, and worked to disentangle myself from the bolts on the wall. However, that proved nearly impossible, as they had punctured my belt and the side of my shirt had gotten severely wrapped around the bolt. Not wanting to spend more time fighting with them, I eventually just removed my belt and shirt, and left them hanging off the bolts. I had more important things to deal with, and would come back and get them later._
_This unfortunately left me with in just a pair of old jeans that I had not worn in a while, and the belt had been quite necessary. The jeans very quickly began to sag, letting my Lucky Brand boxer briefs peak out from under them. I did my best to hold onto my pants and my flashlight, trying to keep moving to despite my pants sometimes sagging and slightly tripping me._
_I found a heavy metal door, red, with a grated window on it. I shone my flashlight through the window, and saw that it led into a large storage area, sparsely populated with abandoned boxes, crates, and pallets. I carefully pushed the door aside, and stepped inside the storage room._
I saw a flashlight pan across the room, and heard the door roll on its track as Scott pushed it aside. I heard him walk inside, and ignoring or not noticing the light switched by the door, and start pacing around the room. I knew, though Scott did not, that this door was the only way in and out of this room. I let him get another 20 steps into the room, before, approaching the door, and sliding it shut. His footsteps froze as he heard the noise, and he slowly made his way back to the door. As he was just about to step from behind the last crate to be able to see the door, I flicked the light switch and the aging fluorescent lights on the 15' ceiling slowly snapped to life with a bit of flickering hesitation.
"Go ahead and step on out here, Scott. Hands where I can see them." I ordered, in my best command voice. I could see him still blinking as the lights flickered on, and he stepped out. I was surprised at what I saw, as he was significantly less dressed than I had seen him last. He had a toned body, his upper body completely revealed, with a stomach, a defined, though not muscular chest, and arms.
He held his hands up at his sides, and I could see that he was slightly embarrassed at his current state of dress, as his pants were clearly too big for him, and they were noticeably sagging as his hands were not allowed to be used to keep them in place. His Lucky Brand boxer briefs clung to his waist and hips, his pants dropping down near his crotch.
"Off-Officer Lawson. Wwwhat are your doing here?" Scott stammered.
"I think that question is more appropriately posed to you, Scott. I am incredibly disappointed in you." I said, as I walked up to him, grabbed his upstretched left hand. I removed the now pointless flashlight from his hand and stashed it in a pocket. I pulled a pair of transport cuffs from my pocket, and let them drop down with a clatter. The Scott watched the connected handcuffs and leg irons dangle in my hands with wide, scared eyes.
"Pppleasse, don't arrest me. This was all a stupid mistake." Scott pleaded, his voice shaking, and the rest of his body following suit.
I slammed a cuff around his left wrist, pulled it in front of his chest, pulled his right wrist in and slammed it into the other cuff. I double-locked the cuffs, then pulled Scott forward, the leg irons now hanging from his hands alone.
I pushed him up against the metal door, now closed and blocking his only escape. He stepped up against the door, using his cuffed hands to cushion his body as he was pushed in place. He had still not been able to pull his pants back up since I first caught him, and he stood there with his pants sagging below his butt facing the wall.
"Give me your left ankle."
He complied, lifting up his left ankle behind him. I grabbed it, removed his shoe and frisked his socked foot before replacing the shoe and locking one of the dangling ankle cuffs around that ankle. I grabbed the last cuff on the transport set, the final ankle cuff awaiting a limb to restrain.
"Drop it."
He did, and the chain connecting his ankles and wrists forced his wrists to drop down to his stomach. He could have grabbed his pants and hitched them up at this point, but I suspect the horror of the situation he was in had him preoccupied.
"Other ankle."
He gave me his right ankle, and I repeated my search of his shoes and socks. I slammed the last cuff around his ankle, completing his four-point restraint, with all of his limbs now connected with cold steel.
I proceeded to frisk the sophomore, the only thing left to search being his pants and underpants. I started at his waist, running my hands along the waistband of his boxer briefs. I stopped when I felt a bit of metal at his right front hip, and removed a handcuff key that had been hung in the elastic of his underwear.
"Were you planning on mentioning this to me at some point?" I asked, annoyed.
"Ssorry" he mumbled, "I-I-I forgot."
"Sure."
I was much more thorough with the rest of my search, feeling his dick, balls, and ass before proceeding to his jeans, feeling the waistband, in the pockets including the coin pocket, and down the legs. I finished by returning back up and carefully inspecting his crotch, before finally being satisfied. All in all I recovered his phone, wallet, keys, the stolen set of master keys, and the hidden handcuff key.
I turned him around to face me, his transport cuffs jingling and echoing in the cavernous storage room. By the time I had finished my search, he seemed to have somewhat composed himself, and he turned with a steeled expression on his face, apparently accepting his fate.
The moment looked perfect, and I could not resist. I pulled out my phone and snapped a picture of him. His face just looked like a mugshot, and the combination of his expression and the surroundings just felt perfect. The picture ended up being more than just a mugshot, as it captured down to he knees, showing his steely face, naked chest, cuffed hands, and boxer briefs above sagging jeans.
"Well, I was going to do handcuff training with the student assistants over Christmas break. But, I guess you aren't going to need that, now are you."
Scott glances down, holding out his hands and studying the cuffs around his wrists. He rattles the chains connecting his wrists and his ankles, and feels as they stop and restrict his motion. He tests his options, finding that the is more free than he expected, but, simultaneously, more restrained as his hands can move about, but his feet are held close together.
"So, Morpheus." I start, staring down Scott, pausing, clearly prompting a confirmation. He nods resignedly, confirming what we both already knew.
"What was the plan? Use your access, to me, to the master keys, and to all of campus, to throw a party? That is the stupidest thing you could have done. You threw away your integrity, my trust, the trust of the school, all so you could, what, get a little social boost? But, you couldn't even claim credit. You know that the moment you did, it would all come down. So, you gave up your integrity, compromised your character, all so you could _not_ get any actual benefit?"
"Well, now I have to take you in, arrest you for stealing, breaking and entering, trespassing, abuse of position. You are going to be in so much trouble. And, it is the middle of the night. You are going to have to sit in the office, shackled, half-naked, your coworkers are all going to see you shacked in the holding cage while we wait for what is going to happen to you."
As I describe the future, it seems to sink in, and he physically reacts, trying to hide himself, just thinking about the public humiliation that is awaiting him when I take him back to the police station. He turns to face the wall and door, trying his best to cover himself from me.
"I have already seen this. You can't hide from me, and what is worse, you can't hide from yourself." I say, my words clearing sinking in as he turns back to face me, his expression more humiliated and resigned than before.
(Continued thanks to @saggerjordancuffed for the pictures and the inspiration. There is at least one more part to come, when I have time to finish it.)

Random-Mailbox's Favorite Sailor Moon Fics - Week 50 - Locked In
This week’s post is all about being locked in places together - be it various closets, elevators or islands. Thank you to @goddessalthena for being my gif fairy godmother 😘
Just wanted give everyone a heads up that I have only 2 more currently planned posts left to make it to the full 52 weeks. I still have some other ideas/lists and will share those at a later date, but this seemed to be a nice round milestone. I really hope you enjoyed these and discovered stories and authors, and maybe even got some new favourites.
As always, my apologies in advance for spoiling some of these for you (Fic Titles are linked to either FFN or AO3 entries).
Seven Minutes in Heaven - @idesofnovember
Mini collection of stories throughout the original anime run where Usagi and Mamoru keep ending up in the closet together, at first because of fate or luck and later because of their meddling friends.
Seven Minutes - colormeferret
A cute little reveal story where our duo getting stuck together in the closet during a game plays a big part.
One Month: Trapped - @sailorsilverladybug
I am going to start with a disclaimer: there are a lot of stranded on an island stories between AO3 and FFN, and one of the themes that runs through is non-consensual intimacy. This particular story is not an exception, but what sets this one apart, and the reason why I included it on the list, is because there is a lot of discussion about consequences and legitimising of feelings for those impacted by the choices of others. Please make sure to check the tags and read the author's note before starting.
Motoki and (some of) the girls decide that to stop Usagi and Mamoru from arguing they need to kidnap them and leave them on a deserted island for a month to get over their hostility for the good of the world (at least that’s Rei and Minako’s reasoning).
Intentionally Trapped - @ninjettetwitch
After having an absolutely horrible day at work, Mamoru decides to still go to Minako’s party only to blow up at Usagi because of his bad mood. Leading a very stern chat in a stopped elevator followed by a steamy make-up.
Game Night - @riverlethe
Minako decides that they deserve a night off and best way to have fun is a game “night” at the arcade, where an increasing number of participants eventually includes Mamoru. Running out of games to play, Unazuki eventually suggests “7 Minutes in Heaven”.
11 Hours - @floraone
This story is based around a study which postulated that with a specific set of questions and at least 4 hours together, two people can start falling in love. In this multi-chapter, our protagonists get stuck in an elevator, discovering things about their past, likes and dislikes, working through social anxiety and preconceived notions.
---
That's it for this week! Two remaining posts will be as follows:
September 4 - Furniture
September 11 - Crystal Tokyo
Here are the links to the previous Tumblr posts in these series to explore more amazing works based on different themes - make sure to check them out if you haven't had a chance! (Click on title name to go to the post) - I will keep updating the list every week as new posts come up:

who you gonna call? (ghostbusters!)
here is my @bylerween2023 day 1 fic for ghosts and hauntings. it’ll be on ao3 soon as this is a queued post. basically byler and lumax catching a ghost in hopper’s cabin.
Lucas Sinclair didn’t think he’d be spending his Halloween at the police chief’s dingy old cabin, trying to capture a ghost (and go on a subtle double date). But here he was, at 10pm in the middle of the night with a torch in his left hand, and his trusty wrist-rocket in the other.
“I don’t even know why you took that dumb slingshot with you,” Max asked “If there’s actually a ghost in there, the rock or whatever you’ve brought to shoot is gonna go through it.”
“It could be useful.” Mike said, coming to Lucas’ defence. “If it isn't a ghost and is just some rat, then it could work.”
“Thank you,” Lucas replied “And it’s a wrist-rocket, not a slingshot, Max.”
“Can we just go in guys?” Will asked “I’m really tired. I only came because I had nothing to do.”
“Did you come because there was nothing to do, or was it because Mike was doing this?” Lucas asked.
Just as Will was about to retort, Hopper finally came out of the cabin, commanding the 4 kids.
“I want you all to just catch whatever is in my house and get rid of it. It’s been banging on the walls and throwing my stuff off of shelves. Even broke one of my best cups.”
“Are you sure it’s not just a rat or anything?” Mike asked sceptically.
“Tell me, Wheeler, have you seen any invisible rats around? Because I haven’t,” Hopper angrily responded “So stop being such a pussy, get in here and catch the goddam ghost!”
With those last few words, he pushed them all into the cabin, giving an extra shove to Mike. Then he closed the door. Max looked through the dusty blinds.
“He going in his car,” Max said “He’s just ditching us here! We don’t know jackshit about this ghost.”
“Can we all just agree that this is stupid?” Mike said “It’s obviously not a ghost and is just some stupid animal that decided it felt at home in this place.”
"Yea, let's just watch a movie here." Will agreed.
"I brought some candy, so it can be a full on movie night." Mike added.
10 minutes later, everyone was on an old couch, watching some horror films. It didn't seem like Chief Hopper was too big on films, as he only had old stuff in his cabin. After a while, the kids picked "The Invisible Man" as their movie of choice.
"Hey, Lucas, remember that the film isn't real, so don't get scared." Max teased.
"I won't get scared because of some shitty old film." Lucas said, before lightly slapping Max's arm.
"Max was able to scare you with a cheap Michael Myers mask, remember that?" Will pointed out.
"Yea, and you screamed like a girl too," Mike added "not even my little sister could scream that high."
Lucas pretend-sulked for a few seconds before taking a snack from Mike and eating it. As they were all eating and watching the film, Will noticed something.
"Mike, where did you get the snacks from?" He asked.
"Yea, we haven't gone trick-or-treating yet." Max joined in.
"Well," Mike began "I saw Holly's bag and thought she might be eating too much. So I just borrowed a few sweets from her."
"Mike!" Will shouted "You just stole sweets from your sister!"
"I just borrowed them." Mike responded.
"How the fuck do you borrow sweets, Mike?" Lucas asked.
"Ok, ok maybe I shouldn't have stole them," Mike said "But do you guys really wanna watch this old film without any Skittles or Reeses?"
"He has a point." Max answered, as she reached out for his bag.
"Can't believe I'm dating a thief." Will said.
“Would you break up with me if I continued stealing?” Mike asked “Because if you would, maybe I’d consider stopping.”
Will didn’t say anything back, he just kissed him on the cheek. Just as Mike was about to hug him, Max spoke up.
”Ugh, you guys are so clingy. Get a room.” Max joking said, before mime-vomiting.
”Hey, just because we didn’t break up 5 times in 9 months doesn’t mean we’re clingy.” Will replied.
Just as Lucas was about to join in, a clash of something came from the kitchen.
”What was that?” Max asked.
”Eh, probably just some cup.” Mike said.
”Cups don’t just fall out of nowhere.” Lucas said.
”What if it’s the invisble man?” Will joked. Everyone laughed for a bit, until they suddenly heard a loud bang. It shoke the living room, maybe even the whole house.
”What the actual fuck was that?” Max asked, although no one else knew.
”Should we go check it out?” Mike proposed.
”Nah, I’m good. Probably just a stray cat.” Lucas nervously answered.
”Do strays bang on walls?” Will asked sarcastically.
”No, but what if there’s something there?” Lucas answered.
”Ok, let’s settle this.” Max joined in. “Me and Lucas will go check the fallen object, and you two can see what made the bang happen.”
Everyone agreed, even a slightly scared Lucas, before splitting up. Max and Lucas went to the left of the house and searched the kitchen and guest bedroom, while Mike and Will went to the right, towards the bathroom and master bedroom.
After 15 minutes of thorough searching, Lucas and Max found nothing. They had found a bunch of little trinkets in the house, even a ballerina music box, but nothing too supernatural.
”I wonder if they’re gonna make out instead of searching.” Max told Lucas.
”It less likely that they’re not.” He joked back.
”WE CAN HEAR YOU GUYS!” Mike shouted from the bathroom.
”Shit.” Max whispered, before shouting back “HAVE YOU GUYS FOUND ANYTHING YET?”
”NOPE, NOTHING’S IN THE BATHROOM.” Mike replied. “WHAT ABOUT YOU GUYS?”
”NOTHING,” Max shouted back “LET’S MEET UP IN THE LIVING ROOM.”
It only took a few seconds for the 4 of them to get back together and they had nothing of interest to share.
”Can we just go home now?” Will asked “We found no ghosts or animals in this place, Hopper is just getting old and losing his wits.”
“Yea, let’s leave this shithole.” Mike said “But I’m not telling the police chief he’s getting old.”
They were all packing up, Mike putting his stolen sweets back in his bag. Once everyone was ready to leave, Lucas opened the door, but something happened.
It closed on itself.
"WHAT THE FUCK!" Max screamed. She and Mike were completely shocked, while Lucas and Will were now terrified. They all stared at the door for a few seconds, before Mike finally spoke up.
"It was probably the wind, let just try again." He said, though he and everyone else knew that wasn't wind. After a few seconds of trying to open the door, he found something out.
"It's locked." Mike finally said.
"That bullshit," Lucas replied, "You can't lock this door from the outside. Let me try, man."
"Alright," His friend answered, "But don't be shocked when you can't open it."
Just as Lucas was about to put his hand on the doorknob, Will heard something.
"Guys, who the actual fuck turned on that?" He asked, pointing to the kitchen counters. There stood the ballerina box, with the little figure spinning. A delicate, yet slightly eerie tune was coming from it.
"I didn't turn it on." Lucas spoke, "And I was with Max all this time, so it wasn't her."
"Well," Mike began "It wasn't me or Will so-"
He was quickly interrupted by a flying plate coming out of a cupboard. It nearly hit him right in the face, but instead smashed into the wall next to him, spreading fine china all over the floor.
"Holy shit, there's a ghost." Mike slowly said.
"We need to leave right fucking now!" Max urgently shouted.
Everyone started running to the backdoor to try and leave. But suddenly, the couch was right at the door, blocking the teens.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" Will screamed. He didn't even know why he came in the first place.
"Now do you think ghosts are fake?" Max asked Mike.
"Max, we are trapped inside this cabin by something, and you're trying to make me say I'm wrong?" Mike slowly told Max.
"Who cares, let's just camp out here till morning." Lucas said
"Are you telling us to stay in a haunted house for a whole night?" Will asked. "Nope, I'm not doing it."
"You can try leave, but this ghost has us trapped." Lucas replied. "So we should wait till Hopper comes back and let him deal with it."
"Alright, fine." Will reluctantly gave in. “But I’m locking my door all night.”
”Alright,so me and Lucas get the bedroom on the left, and you and Mike get the one on the right.”
They all rushed to their new rooms, hoping they wouldn’t get a pan lobbed at them by the ghost.
“Do you think Hopper could actually deal with a ghost?” Mike asked Will, once they shut and locked the door. “I mean, if he needs teenagers to catch a ghost, he would faint if he saw what we saw.”
”Yea, he would not do jackshit if a fork was floating in front of him.” Will laughed
They sat in a peaceful silence for a few seconds, savouring the ghost-free moments.
”Do you wants some candy.” Mike finally asked.
”Depends,” His boyfriend replied. “Are they stolen goods?”
”Stolen, but I guess you’ll miss out on your favourite.” Mike shook a bag of Reese’s Cups in front of Will’s face.
”How dare you tempt me like this?” Will jokingly exclaimed. “You know what, fuck it.” He added as he took Mike’s bag of Reese’s.
”I knew you’d give in!” Mike victoriously said.
”You know I love them.” Will replied.
“More than you love me?” Mike teased.
”Hmmm. Maybe, maybe not.” Will said
Mike lightly punched Will on his arm, and they started play fighting, like they were 7 years old in Mike’s basement again. After a while, they decided to go to sleep, Will taking the left side and Mike taking the right. Mike was a heavy sleeper, almost immediately slumped onto Will. A few minutes passed by and Will also fell into a slumber.
”Which side are you picking?" Lucas asked. "Because I always take the left."
"I pick that side too." Max said.
"Well, there's only one way to settle this." Lucas started. "PILLOW FIGHT!"
He suddenly grabbed a pillow from the bed, and hit Max with it. She retaliated and smacked him over the head. Feathers were everywhere and the two of them layed on the bed, tired but energetic at the same time. Then Lucas had an idea.
”Wait, what if this ghost is like the invisible man?” He said, suddenly sitting upright. “We can’t see him, but he’s still touchable. We could cover him in,like, feathers or paint. Then, once we know where he is, we’ll attack!”
”Lucas, it’s a ghost, they go through walls.” Max replied. “The feathers will just fall as if there was nothing there.”
”It’s worth a shot.” Lucas said, now standing up and at the door. “I’ll wake up Will and Mike.”
He ran to the other room and opened to the door. Mike was laying on Will’s shoulder, the both of them asleep. Until Lucas spoke.
”Guys, sorry for waking you up, but I have an idea to catch the ghost.” He announced.
”Mhh, what?” Will sleepily asked, waking up and straightening his back. Mike’s head slipped off his boyfriend’s shoulder, waking him up in turn.
“So when paint falls on something invisible, it’ll cover it, right?” Lucas explained. “That means that we can cover the ghost in paint and then attack!”
”Lucas?” Will asked.
”Yea?” He replied.
”You do know that ghosts can go through things?” Will said. “So paint would just spill on the floor and Hopper would kill us.”
”That’s what I said.” Max suddenly appeared in the doorframe.
”Well, it’s worth a shot.” Lucas replied.
Will and Mike got out of bed after some more persuasion by Lucas (Mike took 5 minutes more than Will to get out). Everyone quietly crept around the house and got their supplies. Lucas went back to his room and got feathers from his pillow fight with Max. Will got flour from the kitchen and Mike got paint from the cupboard. Finally, Max got a blanket and rope. They went over their plan quickly: they would go into the living room and try to open the main door, which would hopefully bait the ghost. Once they all have him, Lucas, Will and Mike would throw their stuff on him. Then, Max would catch the ghost with a blanket. Finally, they would fight him and tie him up.
The teens all went to the living room and loudly tried to open the door. Mike was falsely complaining in an effort to attract the ghost.
”Oh no!” He theatrically bemoaned. “We can’t open the door! I guess we’re just stuck here.”
After a few minutes of silence, an apple fell from a fruit bowl. Lucas led everyone into the kitchen, waving his hand in the direction they needed to go. Suddenly, the room shook again and a drawer opened. They all took this as their cue, as Lucas shouted, “GO!”, although Max went forward a bit sooner, clearly eager to catch a ghost.
The boys threw their stuff in front of them, right at the drawer. Most of it splattered on the counters and cabinets, but some of it covered a human figure. And someone screamed.
”WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!” It was Max. They hadn’t caught a ghost or invisible man, it was just their friend.
”Shit, Max, I’m so sorr-“ Will began to apologise, but he was taken by something. It grabbed the back of his shirt, lifted him up and pinned him against the wall.
Then, a drawer opened and a knife floated to Will’s neck.
”Holy fuck.” Mike had dropped his paint bucket in utter shock. This ghost was going to kill his boyfriend. But then the knife dropped and a pen made its way to the ghost. It went through Will’s pocket until it found a piece of paper he’d used to doodle on the go. The pen started to write something. After a few seconds, it scrunched up the paper and threw it to the kids. Mike immediately crouched down to read it.
“Either he dies, or all of you do.” He shakily said. “That’s what the note says.”
”Mike, it’s fine.” Will spoke, holding back tears. “Just get out alive, ok?”
”Will, you are not dying to some ghost.” Max told him, blue paint masking how pale she was from terror. But as she said that, the knife hovered towards the three of them, almost like a threat.
”That it, fuck you.” Mike whispered, before running to take Will’s flour bag.
”What are you doing Mike?” Lucas shouted urgently. His friend was now reaching for the bottom of the bag. Finally having some flour in his hand, Mike threw it at the floating knife, revealing someone holding it. Will fell down from the wall, escaping the ghost’s grip.
”Take this, dipshit!” Max shouted, putting the blanket over the ghost’s head. Lucas ran to get the rope and tie him into a knot.
Mike ran to Will, checking on him in case he was hurt.
”Will, fuck, are you ok?” He breathlessly asked.
”Mike, I’m fine.” Will replied, extremely drained. “Why didn’t you just get out?”
”Do you think we were going to let you die in front of us?” His boyfriend said. They both hugged eachother so tightly that one of them might’ve been crushed.
”So, when you guys are done with your love-fest, what are we going to do with this guy?” Max asked, pointing to the writhing figure under the blanket.
”We need to stop this thing, that’s no normal ghost” Will said. “Let’s bury him outside.”
A few minutes later, Mike and Will were outside, having just finished digging a hole for the ghost to lie in. Max and Lucas were in the house, trying to carry him out. Dawn was beginning to rise, small wisps of light making it through the darkness. The two boys were sat on the grass in silence. After a bit of pondering, Mike then spoke.
”Will, when you said the ghost wasn’t normal, what did you mean by that?” He asked.
”It’s just that, I think he just drained me.” Will said, still slightly shaken from his near-death experience. “When he had me, it was like someone was in my head and they were stealing my energy. I guess that’s why I told you guys to go, it’s probably just what it wanted me to think, that there was no hope for me.”
”So you think this ghost has like, powers and stuff?” Mike asked.
”I mean, yea.” Will answered. “It should take a lot to even be a ghost, let alone being able to get into people’s head and show them-“ But then he stopped talking.
”Will, what do you mean?” Mike asked, now more worried than ever.
”It was just some stuff to scare me.” Will began. “Once the ghost got to me, he started showing me visions of you guys. Except that you were all dead in the worst ways possible. It was like a threat: you die, or this is how your friends will end up. He also showed me things that had already happened, like when my dad still lived with me, Mom and Jonathan. He just made me relive it way more vividly than a memory could ever be.”
Just as he had finished, Lucas and Max came through the door, carrying the ghost in between the two of them. Lucas was holding the feet, while Max was carrying the head.
”Can we just burn this fucker?” Max asked.
”I’m pretty sure ghost’s can’t die, and therefore can’t burn.” Lucas replied.
”Well, let’s just get this done and over with.” Will said.
Lucas and Max both unceremoniously threw the ghost into the pit, then Mike and Will tossed the dirt over it.
”Isn’t it weird this will be the closest we’ll ever get to murder?” Mike spoke.
”Well, it’s not really murder if the victim is already dead, is it?” Lucas asked
After 2 minutes, the gang was done with the job. They’d fully buried the ghost, hopefully never haunting anyone else. They all said their “fuck you’s” and “shit-heads” (Will even spat on his grave) before leaving.
“So, can we all agree that this has been the worst Halloween ever?” Lucas spoke.
”Yea, I think getting flour all over me was the worst part.” Max said, before adding, “Well, except from Will being assaulted by a ghost.”
They all walked off into the sunrise, hoping they don’t get trick instead of treat again next year.

Okay I got a single like on my response where I mentioned over sharing about yarn projects
I'm just gonna talk about one project, and tag any other posts I do like this as #garbage does yarn
So the project I'm really trying to get finished right now! It's a dreamy knit color work short sleeve sweater situation, this is the pattern and what it's looking like on my needles! More details below the cut if people are interested
The pattern colors are very yellow/red, I chose to do mine with more blue/purple jewel tones which is way more my vibe. It's also supposed to be a crop top but I've chosen to do a more classic length, which was an option in the pattern
I've been knitting for many years in some capacity (throwback to highschool garbage making loom knit hats) but hadn't even tried color work before starting this project, and it's been so fucking satisfying seeing these shapes come to life as I knit this piece! I maybe should have started with only 2 colors instead of jumping in to like 5, but the pattern only has like 2 active at a time so not too bad
Really all I have left to do is the bottom ribbed hem, and then finishing off the sleeves, and then blocking, the pic at the top is a bit out of date but it's the most recent I seem to have. I was toying with modifying the pattern for long sleeves for a hot minute but I think it's just so fun with short sleeves, and a bit more versatile.
I'm hoping the blocking process will help smooth out some of my tension inconsistency throughout the piece (where you can see puckering here and there like in the snip below), but even as it is I'm so happy with how it's turning out for a first slightly ambitious stab at color work!
The pattern also included a blank template for making your own motifs and I'm so tempted to immediately jump into trying to do a Halloween/fall themed motif version as soon as I finish this one! My pile of wips doesn't agree that's a great idea but we'll just have to see.
#garbage talks#garbage does yarn#knitting#stranded colorwork#honestly this was fun to type out i think ill do posts like this for other projects whether i just get crickets or not#also ill probably do an update either when i cast off or finish blocking

The monster mash:Remains of the day!
Ace trappola,Deuce spade,Cater diamond ,Trey clover and Riddle rosehearts!
Have you heard the rumors of the midnight remains? If not let me tell you,long ago there were 5 boys that died a tragic death.Their killer was never found and they could never rest in peace, on Halloween night they roam the graveyard dancing to a old tune luring others into the graveyard to check if they are their killer.Its also said that if you see them and offer the corpses a flower they will grant fame,fortune,luck and love.So hope you hear that old tune in the graveyard.
cw: gn!reader, crack & fluff,mentions of death,gore?,a very long prologue/dialog but is a hc post!!,sfw and unedited.
If you liked this go Check out Shiny-jrs version!
also if this flops I'm deleting my whole blog.
Stay tuned for the next rumor...
prologue!
It's that time of year again.Little kids running around as ghosts,skeletons, witches and vampires trying to get some free candy.While teenagers drink and smoke in graveyards,have late night parties,pass out candy,stay home watching movies with friends or they are like you and work a Halloween job.
"Y/n please lock up for me okay?" Your boss said as you were restocking shelves,your boss had hired you not too long ago after you applied for a resume to work at this small holiday shop."Yes mam!" You said with a small smile,To be completely honest you didn't really want to work the night shift;You wanted to watch some of your favorite Halloween movies,perhaps even pass out candy for trick-or-treaters and go to a party with your friends.
But lucky you, now you're alone in this tiny old shop….Your senses direct to the cold breeze,somehow not shaking the feeling a tragedy will step its way through the doors.With nothing else to do you decided to just stock more shelves,picking up a big box you walk to the back of the store and restock some candy….your boss won't mind if you sneak a bag right? No y/n don't even try it,even though there were never cameras your boss always found out when you tried to take a bite out of merchandise.
You hear your stomach grumble remembering how you only ate half a KitKat before coming to work.Maybe if you go in the bathroom your boss wouldn't know? Grumble~
You take a bag off the shelf and stuff it in your coat,walking to the bathroom in the least suspicious way you can.(it does look suspicious btw)
When you get to the bathroom after checking If there were any secret cameras, you crawl into a stall and close the door.Slowly opening the bag of sugary sweets,as soon as you get the candy out the rapper you heard a…….
ding ding…!
You felt like punching someone;not only was there a customer but you also dropped your candy on the floor, that ding scared you so bad causing you to drop it.You scrambled to get up and leave the bathroom leaving the candy behind in the process,"Just a minute and I'll be with you!" You say as you figure out where to hide the evidence of what was gonna transpire a moment ago.You run out the bathroom and rush behind the counter,only to find nobody?
What…?
You step out the counter and start passing by the isles.You knew you heard someone come in,the bell only rings twice when someone comes in.You turn to the door and stare with curiosity pooling in your eyes,sitting at the other side of the door was a jack-o-lantern, the type of jack-o-lanterns you see in movies."Huh? Who put this here" you mumbled to yourself walking towards the door,when you reached for the handle the same feeling from earlier sat in your stomach.
Something was gonna happen and it wasn't gonna be good.
You step outside the door and peek around, nobody on the left street and Noone on the right,you heard a meow as you turned back to the pumpkin,A cat looked at you from a bush it's blue iridescent eyes stare at you.The cat looked like it was gonna meow but you interrupted it before he can,"having a good night?" The cat looked at you with a dumb look, you brush it off and picked up the pumpkin. As soon as you did you felt….?
Welcome to wonderland!!
"WAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" You wailed as you felt nothing under you, it was as if you fell into a well, a deep one at that.Either it was very deep or you were falling very slowly,You had plenty of time to look at your surroundings, and to think back to what happened.The well looks strange like it's a pantry filled with kick knacks, clocks cover the shelves that all seem broken, with little words that spread the air unspoken,A box falls onto your lap with a note poking from the side "The brides tart don't eat" You open the box only to find disappointment: nothing was in the box but only a single withered blue rose,you sat there looking down at the box with a frown.You haven't eaten all day yet you were stuck with a dumb rose, for a moment you pondered wether or not you should eat it but held back: you didn't throw the box for fear of disrespecting the owner of the place,managing to keep the box in your jacket pocket.
Down, down and down below. Would the fall never end,you are starting to get a little ticked off about how long it's taking.You begin to think if you are gonna fall through the earth,you find it funny if you ended up on the other side of the world without any money! It's gonna be a funny story to tell at one of those dinner parties you go to every-so-often. Down,down,down. There was nothing else to do but sit in silence, so you began talking again. "I hope smokey was alright, poor thing I should have checked if it was okay." (Smokey was the gray cat you saw earlier, you named it Smokey because it was gray.)You began to get rather sleepy, wiping your tears as you looked around once more, what was once a room filled top to bottom with nick nacks and shades of beige, light reds,neon purples and greens.Turned into a dull gray and cobwebs everywhere,you could faintly make out a silhouette of what you presumed was a hand; before you could get a closer look, you felt that you were falling much more faster than before. When suddenly-
Thump!
Thump!!
Thump!!!
Down you fell on a pile of sticks looking around you see that you are in an alleyway of some sort, when you got up you realized that what you landed in was a coffin filled with sticks,dry leaves and a single blue rose."What the-" before you could finish your sentence, you heard a blood curdling meow looking up to see that same cat falling into the coffin: soon closing the coffin due to the force."OH MY GOSH- SMOKEY ARE YOU OKAY!?" You run to the coffin swinging it open,and omg-why are the cat's ears on fire!? You stumble back and look down at the cat with eyes the size of saucers, "myah!? Hey you!" AND IT TALKS!? ……
……...........……….
The Gray feline!!!
You and this 'thing' stare at each other "you Human!!" The cat screeched again with its high pitched voice,adrenaline bursts into your joints as you closed the coffin lid and held it down with your torso until the yelling and scratching stopped: you open the coffin, only to be met with a hole in the corner;it looks like it's been burned to a crisp.what…? You think to yourself, you know dang well that you trapped that cat in the coffin.You try to think how this is possible and you come to think about something, is it all a dream? You pinch your arm but sadly with no avail, you didn't wake up in a holiday shop that was filled with hundreds of decorations.
"Human,are you trying to kill me!?" You heard from your left…you come eye to eye with what seemed to be a mix of a cat and raccoon,what were they called..? you started to ponder what those animals were called,ignoring the talking animal babbling about how you were trying to kill him,in the end you couldn't remember the name of that animal:( "kitty what's your name?" You ask in a soft tone, trying not to startle the small Gray feline.
"Me? I'm grim the great!" The prideful cat yelled, you smile to yourself thinking that this whole situation is stupid: you look down at grim and he is practically beaming with pride.You decided to humor the feline asking it why he is so great,until you heard a rattle beside you.hm..? You turn to your side to see a pink ball roll out of a trashcan and away from the alley, how curious;What is a pink ball doing in such a plain and dreary place? "Grim, did you see that?" You asked as you started walking towards where the pink ball disappeared too,"myah? What are you talking about henchman?" You roll your eyes at what the cat just called you,"Did you see it or not grim?" The cat just grumbled and huffed trying to find a good reply for your question, but he just turned around and looked to the trash can.
"Let's go find it." You say as you look back to the corner only to find that the pink ball was sitting there,was that always there..?Grim snaps you out your thoughts, complaining about how its a dumb idea."IM NOT GOING TO FOLLOW IT!?" The cat screeched, for a moment you thought you should cover your ears;to save them from the pain."Fine, I'll go and leave you alone in this dark and spooky alleyway." It was a snide remark, yes but you sure as heck wasn't going alone.You start walking to the corner hoping grim would follow you;but when you got close enough to the pink ball it rolls away, you start to follow it slowly;but it got faster and faster when you got closer and closer.Now you have found yourself in the woods alone…
A little chat!!
What you thought was a pink ball was actually a hedgehog,maybe they are a new breed or something?Sadly grim didn't follow you;so you had to deal with the fact you are in a spooky woods, cold and alone- well you are not really that cold; but you digress.The hedgehog looks at you with curious eyes,you decided to have a little chat with your new little friend: "Did you lead me here?" The hedgehog only replied with a snuffling,like how a pig snuffles."hmmm did you like the cat I was with?"You asked jokingly, the only reply you got was hissing.Its startled you at first, you started to panic and tried to pet it;but sadly you forgot it had quills and ended up pricking yourself.
Ah! You dropped the hedgehog and held your hand, the hedgehog scrambled being a log watching as you held your hand and whispered profanities.You noticed the frightened animal and walked over to the log,as you sat on the log you beckoned the small animal to come to you. Slowly but surely it did, as it sits in the palm of your hand looking up at you,with wounded hand resting on the log you began to talk to the small animal again;"so, do you like tarts" once again the hedgehog hisses at you, not as a aggressive as last time and how you see it's beady eyes squeezed shut,it's safe to say the hedgehog didn't like tarts.You faked an offended gasp;and stared at it with a fake frown sewn on your face, "Really? You don't like tarts even a little bit?" The hedgehog stares at you and snuffles again,then bobbed its head.Like those bobbleheads your parents had kept on the shelves when you were a kid,"well i do!" You uttered, instantly you felt a gust of wind- well not really like wind but you felt cold, for some reason?
A surprise of the century!
You felt cold air caressing your body, making you feel like it's winter more than autumn.You felt as if your hand being lifted and a palm perpendicular to yours curl in a holding position,like someone is holding your hand.Before you can do anything you felt something cool fanning in your ear,"Til death do us part" A male voice said from behind,A rush of adrenaline that you had earlier had came back in full blast.You launch up and stumbled back, dropping the hedgehog in process;but the strange thing was that you also heard cracking that ended with a snap.
You're eyes dart to where you were sitting a moment ago,Making sure to keep your distance,6 feet is a good distance to keep when someone is at 'threat', lucky for you the moon illuminates the whole woods.You could vaguely make out the shape of a person, at least average height and somewhat fit not enough to be buff but not too little to be considered scrawny."I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you-" the voice sounds a bit panicked…"-But you have something of mine!" Once more you felt the sensation of someone holding your hand, but this time was offered with a little squeeze: you look down to see a bony arm, lord…it looks as if it's rotten- wait,you look back at the figure to see that he doesn't have a arm to accompany his other one.You can also faintly make out his face and hair, the moon made out dark navy blue hair and bright blue eyes glow in the dark, it looks as if he has eyeliner running that use to be a shape of a Spade.
It sank in….
….. Screaming, you instinctively ripped that bony hand out of your palm, running as fast as you can to nowhere in particular.The wind fans your face and the moon shines elegantly above you, painting a path for you to follow mindlessly.You had caught a glimpse of a glowing blue hue in the distance, but you feet did not yield, you kept running as fast as you could (the adrenaline must still be overpowering).That was until you heard a familiar voice,"myah!? Human I've been looking for you!" You wanted to stop, you really did; but your feet didn't retire,"MYAH HUMAN WHY ARE YOU RUNNING AWAY!?" You can hear that grim is chasing after you, hearing leaves crunch behind you.
A party!!
You hear a slow record playing in the distance and there is a lot of light over-that-way, perhaps you can ask for help!Your feet started to hurt and you started to slow down,the fatigue finally hit after the adrenaline rush calmed itself.You take a peek to see people in a graveyard,it seems they are doing a holding a party? It doesn't seem that bad,you know a lot of other people who hang out at graveyards on Halloween night,the clinking of glass and hushed voices fills your ears, 4 people in total, all doing their own things;but still talking to each other,one shorter than the others is tending to the radio,another is holding a phone and taking photos,While one is setting up the table and setting down sweets and the final one was complaining.
"Where is deuce at!?" A boy with red hair said, the same boy who was doing nothing but complaining. You keep watching as the short one slowly gets mad "Deuce shouldn't be late we can only do this once a year you know!" "Yes we know riddle" the boy who was setting the table said, then the one with the phone chimed in;"We discussed the details didn't we trey?" So the short one is riddle and the one setting up the table is trey,"Oh no.." Trey said in a low voice as he looked around the table,"Huh? What's wrong trey?" the boy with the phone said trying his best for riddle not to hear."the tart! I don't know where I sat it!"you slowly remember the tart you sat in your pocket,slowly you reach for the box and pull it out."The brides tart don't eat!"
Ah is this what they are talking about……? You think for a moment util you see another figure join the 4 boys,A boy with navy blue hair and- WAIT THATS THE GUY YOU SAW EARLIER!? Thoughts plagued your mind, was that all a Halloween joke?, was it real,(it felt so real..) was it just a cruel prank….? "THERE YOU ARE HUMAN!!" You screamed on instinct, causing the 5 boys to stare at you
Ace
He has a bit of skin off but not much,his shoulder is mostly bone and a few of his fingers don't have flesh but it could easily be hidden with clothing!The red heart on his eye looks a bit broken, half of Is very faded so it only looks like half a heart.૮ – ﻌ–ა
He was kinda surprised to see some random (but cute) person in their graveyard ꒰˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶꒱
He had this feeling…..?
Like he once knew you-
-like he once loved you….
He would be a bit cocky once you sit with them.(｡•̀ ᴖ •́｡)
Deuce
He looks very human, it's just that his corpse is rotting and it's hard for his limbs to stay put.Every so often his arm would pop off(._.`). His Spade looks like it's running as if he was in the rain.
He is very delighted to see you again!(❁ᴗ͈ ˬᴗ͈)
Would smile at you when you sit down.♡♡
He truly adores you so much!!
Cater
Cater's cheek actually has a few holes in it and half of his left torso is just bone,while his right hand is bone.The Diamond on his left cheek looks smudged and brittle.
Oooo! This is interesting~!
He is excited ( ◜‿◝ )
He is the one to invite you to the table (ˊᗜˋ )
Trey
Trey also has a very humane corpse but it is very rotten and half of his left arm is very decayed.While his whole torso is also all bone.
Trey Is happy you brought the tart.
And he is very happy to meet you(˶ᵔᴗᵔ˶)
You sit across from him so he is pretty happy!
Riddle
His left leg is completely bone and his right arm is too, there is a giant scar under his bangs followed by his eye that pops out every so often.(˃̵ ࡇ˂̵)
His is intrigued to sat the least
He feels funny when around you,but awfully smug when you sit beside him.
For them to know!!
Yes, you sat at the table.You didn't want to be rude okay!?Half an hour past and you come to find out their names; but now you are stuck with 5 corpses babbling over you, now you kinda wished you left grim behind; but look at him, that dumb cat thing is eating til his heart is content! You wanted all of them to shut up, just for them to shut up for one moment-"y/n do you want some cake?♧", "y/n take a photo with me!◇" , "Y/n how about you🌹", "y/n you look very nice♤"
"Um….I was wondering if I could have some help with something." You mumbled, to be frank you were taken aback that they all went quiet, more or less that they even heard you."Yes y/n?" Riddle said in a soothing voice, you felt embarrassed for even asking a question..The way their eyes seemed to burn into your flesh (it didn't) made you squirm in your seat."I was wondering how to get back to my home?" You mumbled once more, they all looked like you've grown two heads."What you can't leave~!" Cater said followed by Ace "Yeah! Don't go!?" Riddle seemed like he was thinking while trey just stared at you.Deuce chimed into caters and Aces begging "You can't go we just got married!" Everybody went silent,even grim stopped eating."um no I don't think we are." You said in a hushed tone, instead of feeling their eyes burn into you it felt as if something was eating you. "I'm sorry- when did we get married?" Deuce looks at you a bit heartbroken by you not remembering when yall had wed, "it was in the woods remember! You said I do!" You think back to when you were woods, the only one that was with you most of the time was the hedgehog…..oh!
"I'm sorry but I was talking to the hedgehog" You said stifling a laugh, the way deuces face changed was to die for.The graveyard goes silent once more…
Cricket noise
Cricket noise
Cricket noise
A way to stay!?
"If they aren't married, then we can y/n~!" Cater said with a smile, it was hard to tell whether or not he was joking,"No!? They would be much happier with me!" Ace chimes in, before getting cut off by trey "You probably not their type Ace, I can treat you much better y/n" Riddle had silenced everyone with a quick fist to the table,"That's enough all of you! If you keep talking like that then I'll have your heads." He paused for a moment "And besides I obviously the best choice."
(Note:This place is kinda like a limbo but it's when dead people get stuck trying to pass on, they came to find out after a man named finis gutknecht married a girl named Sara and he was able to move on to the next life now mostly everyone wants to wed someone so they can pass on.Yet Sara was a alive human who ended up in that land by mistake but spent her whole life with finis so when she died she passed on with her beloved.)
Everyone is quiet again, it's very unnerving to say the least. Standing up got all the attention pointed at you, like a big red arrow is pointing straight at you. With no shame Ace begins to roar with laughter boasting about how riddle is no fit,if he can't reach a shelf for his lover.To be honest it made you laugh a bit, riddle was like a chihuahua short and small but has a temper or maybe he can be a Arctic shrew? There are no shrews here, I'm afraid, oh but you always wanted to meet those little creatures.Can arctic shrews eat flamingos that are blue; or can blue flamingos eat tiny shrews? Hmm, I wonder if that's possible? You start to feel a bit sleepy about all this thinking about shrews; so you have to get home soon to take a nap!
With a small yawn you look at all the dead boys, bickering about how they can be the perfect groom,"I'm sorry but I really do have to go home!" Hm? Was riddle always this red..? With the ferocity of a bull he Grabs your hand- like heck he is about to let a divine person like you go. -and pins your hand on the table, the red on his face had cleared up and replaced with a small smile. Yep he is definitely a shrew… "how about you stay a little longer?" He calmly said, it was as if he never got mad; but they way he pins your hand down you know it actually happened.
A helping hand!
You slowly sit down and pull your hand away from his,reaching for the tea cup to calm your nerves,only to find a little note under the cup.
"Frogs breath and Atropa belladonna could help you leave.Just put it in the cups while nobody is looking" You stare at the small paper, is someone helping you? "Y/n why are you looking down?" Deuce spoke up, you shove the small paper in your pocket and look up at him."it's nothing, I'm just thinking about something." You mumbled quietly, as he took a bite out of a cake.
Who could it be?
Ace
He was upset you didn't want to marry him
Would try to seduce you
He fails(˶ᵔᴗᵔ˶)
Also shows you card tricks (´｡•᎑•`)
The worst thing about Ace is his pranks, he would take off one of his fingers and put it in your cup.
But in reality there is a little not on his decapitated finger reading "marry me" Mans fr thought it was cute (·•᷄ࡇ•᷅ )
0/10 proposal
When he hears you want to also leave oh he could care less
Yeah your kinda hot, smart, cool and nice to some people but he can find another
Who wouldn't wanna spend their life with a guy like me ~ Aces own words before you rejected him💀
He would pull out random flowers (they are actually weeds)
And he would kiss your hand your but his hands would fall off(꒪⌓꒪)
Deuce
He was devastated when you said yall weren't married
Poor boy didn't push you though. (´｡•᎑•`)
He would act friendly to you but not enough to see how romantic he is trying to be.♡♡
He would try to strike up conversations with you 😅
And he would invite grim
(I just realized I never said crap about grim so right now in the story is is still at the table but he is kinda wary)
He would give you withered flowers and apologize because that all he could find.
Tries to make you feel comfortable. ꒰˵ˊᯅˋ˵꒱
He would never try to seduce you. (˃ ⌑ ˂ഃ )
He would propose a very normal way goes on one knee with a flower ring (ring made out of a flower) and would ask to marry you૮₍⇀‸↼‶₎ა
Basic but cute, 8/10
When he hears you want to go home he feels abit upset
Personally he wants to find someone like Sara, a person who would live him even tho he is rotting flesh and bones.
If you don't love him he won't force you :)
But he really wants to pass on so he can see his mother again.(.•́ ᎑ •̀.)
He truly cares for you
Cater
When you rejected him he felt really insecure (๑•́ ᎔ •̀๑)
Also another to try and seduce you
Succeeds (>᎑<๑)
He would make you turn 100 shades of red first starting to pink them all the way to crimson ( ᴗ ̫ ᴗ )
He takes tons of photos of you!
But there a little moments when he is serious with you and that's when he proposed
It was very thought out and planned
Perhaps he was waiting to propose to someone for a long time?
He has lots of flowers,under the moon light sky he sits you down and hugs you whispering little nothings and asks if you want to be here forever he will live forever until the end with out (probably quotes somthing he found on pinterest) 9/10 cute but pinterest did the heavy lifting
Jokingly calls grim yalls baby(grim isn't happy about it)
He wouldn't talk to you first(・・ ) ?
When you say you want to go home he feels strange?
He honestly don't care what's on the other side, he's not much of fan of his family and he knows that it's likely everyone he once knew probably forgot about him and his untimely death.
So he didn't know what to feel when you said you wanted to go back, he didn't want to go back to the land of the living.
Trey
When you rejected him he felt a bit sad and shy꒰˵• ﻌ •˵꒱
He wouldn't want to try and seduce you because he doesn’t want to make you feel uncomfortable
Would propose with a cake.
Just gives you a cake with a ring inside it the cake is 3 tier and says I love you on the side,marry me is onto of the cake.
Imagine if you ate the ring😭
3/10 just because
He would give grim cake too
Only to get on your good side
Aye got a blessing from grimmy then you are inny
What💀💀
Would bake cakes and snack just for you to marry him (⑅˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)
You think he poised some of them
(There is a chance tbh)
Would ask about your teeth (for a dead guy his teeth is very clean and white)
Yall would talk often
He is the person you can go towhen everyone else is doing something^^
When you talked about going home he sympathizes with you.
If you don't wanna marry him he is okay with it.
He wants to rest in peace so he can see his family again😔
But there is times he hope you can love him.
Riddle
He is kinda when you rejected him(๑•̀^•́)
Like he proposed perfectly!!
Wouldn't seduce you, because he was a bit too shy to try.
Maybe of you give him a little push he can try(๑>◡<๑)
He would fail if he tried💀
Shows you his (withered) rose garden.
He would lecture you about how you dine.
Would talk about original books with you like the original Frankenstein.
He would sometimes make you feel uncomfortable and he doesn't intend it!!(๑•̀ㅁ•́๑)
He would properly normal has a ring and everything.
2/10 basic :(
When you talk about you wanting to go home he feels offended.
He will wait of you don't want to marry him, he will wait for another to come.
He just wants to rest in peace:(
He trusts you make the right decision.
A hunt for love!
You broke the silence,"I will marry one of yall" you stared as they had a smile sewn upon their faces,but quickly fell into a frown after they registered the fact only one would be picked."if yall find the pink hedgehog we shall be wed" they all stare at you like you are a goose who laid a golden egg, "what pink hedgehog?" Riddle asked questioning if you were lying."before I went into the woods there was a pink hedgehog right grim" the feline was a bit surprised to hear you call out to him like that all of a sudden,"mrm..That pink ball was a hedgehog!?" Lord that cat was hopeless.
It took some convincing and the proof of your wounded hand from when it pricked you, got them to believe you.After a fake promise of not leaving and wave of goodbye, they all scattered like mice to find that hedgehog. While you went off to find Frogs breath and Atropa belladonna,"come on grim" You whisper to the feline "didn't you say you were going to stay here?" Grim replied slowly. You shook your head "I was lying grim" You drag Grim off and venture past the grave yard well not before you took a cookie for the road. After walking for awhile you needed a place to rest, finding a old looking hous , you were hesitant to knock but you really needed to find these things if you wanted to go back home.
Knock
Knock
Knock
……
……
…….
The door slowly creaked open, and you stepped inside slowly,Looking around to see knickknacks upon knickknacks. It looks very cluttered to say the least but you digress,you walk into a giant room and hear a rattle of clutter shaking. Was that you? "Um, hello is anyone there?" You called out, to be honest you didn't want to call out because all protagonists get murdered after calling out to the killer; but you were very desperate right now. Another rattle fills your ears, "sssssssoooo~" you hear in your ear, you snap to your side to see who it was but only to be met with nothing:you didn't panic and tried to keep your cool,"Grim did you hear that?" The cat steps to the side "yeah….y/n do you think it's a ghost?" You hummed acknowledging what he said "maybe"
rattle!
Rattle!
"Hello im looking for some Atropa belladonna and Frogs breath." You said out loud, hoping the person would hear you. The was only silence that filled the room. Hm..? Did they not hear me? "Whoo are youuu~?" You felt breath fanning your ear; but it didn't smell rotten like how deuces was infact it smelled quite like mint.You turn to look at who the person was, a boy with bright pink hair and a large grin stands beside you.His clothing looked like that style the other people on the streets wears is he a living human like you?
"Who are you, I asked~!" The boy said with the same terrible grin,"Oh! Im sorry I'm y/n and this is grim" You point to the strangely prideful cat, as the boy looks at you then the Grey feline. "Chenya" he said with a wider grin, what? "I'm sorry what?" You reply- before you can ask again more properly the boy chimed in: "my name is chenya" You nodded and sat in a strange silence before you broke it, "I'm here to ask if you knew where I can get Frogs breath and a Atropa belladonna" chenya looked at you, his wide grin turned into a smirk as he floated up in front of you. Never mind he isnt human like you. Chenya hummed for a moment acting like he is lost in thought, "hm~! I have those but I have to say it's not free" You felt your stomach drop you didn't have any money. Grim stared at chenya and started blabbering "MYAH! JUST GIVE IT TO US WE REALLY NEED IT" chenya looked at the cat and huffed "mannn~ I'm so hungry I could eat anything!" He said eyeing grim from his spot, wait….did he want food? You looked up at chenya and took the cookie out of your pocket,"I have a cookie do you want it?" You asked, chenya turned over "naw not into cookies." He says, you frown at the thought of you not getting those things so you can go home and also at the fact that he would take the cookie trey made.
"Please try it! It's very good trey makes amazing sweets!" You say as you tap his shoulder, he turned around as fast as someone could "TREY MADE THIS!? As in trey clover" You nod your head slightly weirded out by the fact he got so worked up in so little time,"yeah he-" chenya yoinks the cookie out your hand and stuffs it in his mouth before you can finish your sentence. "It's on that table in a small purple box" chenya said still munching away with that cookie,You walk over to a three legged table and pick up a navy blue box.The box was filled with lots of junk,3 kids in a bathtub waering Halloween costumes, a mix of Frankenstein and a dog doll,a boy with scissors for hands action figure,A CD of the song joylne with a star on it,dead flowers,paints and finally a jar that says Frogs breath with a packet that says Atropa belladonna beside it. You took them and rushed off saying goodbye to the strange boy, and making your way back to the graveyard.
You rush to the table, lucky for you they haven't came back yet, You pick up the tea pot to see a note that read 'go south into the woods the hedgehog will show you the way' stuffing the note in your pocket,you try to read the label of the frog breath potion, after putting the Atropa belladonna in the tea pot.' Beware if you put too much then your victim will only sleep for 1-' before you can finish reading it grim yelled "Y/N THEY ARE COMING BACK!!" You quickly pour the Frogs breath into the tea pot and sit down acting like nothing happened,"hey~! Y/n guess who found the hedgehog~!" Cater said in a sing song voice, it's clear on the looks of everyone's faces that they envied cater. You faked a giggle and replied "Did you find it cater?" He hummed as he say beside you, Grim eyes the rest pot then you wonderland what your gonna do, "THEN LETS CELEBRATE!" You said joyfully, once more they looked at you like you were mad as a hatter, "it's common tradition to celebrate when one gets married!" You started pouring the tea in everyone's tea cup, and raised your cup and said "Til now and forever til death do us part!" You smiled at the way Cater lit up when you said that, he drank the cup followed by riddle, then trey, Ace and deuce.
You watched as everyone had much more of a harder time keeping their eyes open than you, slowly but surely they drifted off to sleep. You got up from the chair and called for grim, He ran up to you not a moment longer, "Let's hurry" he said as he ran into the woods, you soon followed after him.
[10 minutes later]
Deuce was the first to wake up, when he saw everyone asleep but you and grim gone he felt hurt.He shook everyone awake and told them that you were gone, and they all agreed to split up and find you. Grim and you waited for a pink hedgehog hog after five minutes it finally came, you began to follow the hedgehog for a tiny animal it was quite faster than you expected.Then you heard him "y/n! there you are!" You heard Ace yell behind you, footsteps became faster and louder from behind you so you quickened your pace leaving the hedgehog behind; but Ace didn't stop infact it felt he only got faster, Ace yells again this time much louder "I FOUND Y/N!" You picked up grim and went as fast as your legs can carry you.....
When one sought freedom...
....You felt your heart quicken as you ran, adrenaline was replacing your blood and flowing throughout you, the leaves and sticks crunch and break beneath you.Grim was in your arms, as you felt someone tug on your arm and pulls you into a bush.Screaming you swung grim to scratch the males eyes, only to be met with the sound of a grunt of pain, "Ah, y/n please be quiet" the boy said, it was deuce; He was the one who kept you hidden in the bushes."Deuce what are you doing here what are you gonna do to me!?" You half whispered half yelled, his rotten hand had rested on his temple where grim scratched him,"there is a tunnel here" he said, as he pushed a pile of leaves and sticks revealing a hole. Giant hole was in the middle of the ground, you looked back at deuce, his face showed despair then he spoke again."when I first came here I wanted to do everything I can to see my mom one last time, but there was no way I could have went back…I know what it's like to want to go home; so I want you to go home back to those you love y/n" you felt giddy hearing him say such sweet things, you felt something cold but soft onto of your head…
did he just kiss your forehead? You smile to yourself and thank him."Myah y/n!? Are you really trusting him" You glare at grim and went back to deuce "Thank you deuce" he smiles and helped you down the hole,you sat grim in front of you and yall slowly start to crawl into the unknown.The tunnel was straight for some way, And then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that you didn't have a moment to think about stopping yourself before you found yourself falling down what seemed like a well….
…….you felt cold like you are in water but you can't see or speak, your ear felt plugged to avoid any water from spilling in so you can't hear anything, oh you hope grim is okay…The only senses you still have is touch and smell, it smells like salt in here….where am I at?

Banner ID: All four Defenders and Frank are sitting around a table strewn with red goblets, coins, and beer bottles and cans. They're playing cards and gambling. From left to right, Matt wearing a red shirt is feeling his cards with his fingertips, Jessica in black has her chin in her palm and is side-eyeing Luke, Luke i a yellow shirt is grinning down at his hand, Danny in green is looking pensively at his own, and Frank, seen in profile in his customary black shirt, is gritting his teeth. We can see the back of Foggy's lavender shirt as he's leaving the table; there's an empty chair left around the table.
