Howdy~! For the 100 follower prompt, I would like angst prompt #4 with Leona Kingscholar, please! Angst with a happy ending, please? Thanks a bunch!👍 Also, congrats on the 100!

I cOULDN'T SEE THIS ONE ON MOBILE EITHER IM????? I HAD TO SAVE IT AS A DRAFT TO SEE IT???

BRUH???

Angst 4: "My wounds are of no concern to you"

Lol OOC and mentions of bruising 👍🏻

Existence is pain and I'm bad at this. I'm writing this in calculus because I don't wanna be here :3c

He'd been cold to them today, moreso than usual

The sudden frigid edge to his tone when he spoke to them, cutting them off mid sentence, set off an alarm bell in their head

His normal lazy drawl was nowhere to be heard and in its place had been the inimicality of how he spoke presently

They didn't understand what they had done to make him angry

If they'd even done anything, that is.

And in turn they debated with themselves on whether they should give him space or try to speak with him about his sudden dismissiveness

On one hand, speaking to him could lead to an argument

One the other, they might be able to improve his

The latter seemed to be the favorable outcome

They'd wait until after classes had ended and he retired to his bedroom, however, figuring that it would be easier to approach him when he was more comfortable

When they arrive outside his door, they speak to make themselves known before letting themselves in

He cracked an eye open at them from his bed, the emerald freen of his irises gleaming in the darkness of his room

No words were spoken, just glances exchanged.

At least until they cleared their throat to aid in their preparation to speak

Leona? Has something happened?

They removed their shoes and approached him, footsteps quiet against the floor

Upon their reaching out to touch him, he grabbed their wrist

You're playin' a dangerous game, herbivore.

They frowned deeply

Despite being fully aware that it was his pride at play here, they couldn't help but feel the sting of his behavior

With a sigh they pulled their arm away and sat down on his bed

You acting like this only concerns me more. I know that there's something wrong Leona.

There was a long pause as they wallowed in their thoughts

And they sigh, running a hand through their hair, before turning to face him, expression serious

Kingscholar, I swear to the 7, if you don't fess up-

They cut themselves off when he lets out a growl

He'd failed to catch their hand again when they made a jab at his ribs with their fingers

A sneer crossed his face at having been found out and he huffed, falling back against the pillows

There was no longer a reason to bother

They lifted his shirt to see the the problem, brows furrowing at the large bruise across his ribcage, dark against his skin

I-

He cuts them off this time, voice annoyed in a way that takes them aback

My wounds are of no concern to you

Their face contorted into anger as they stare at him incredulously

Like hell it isn't! You have punctured a lung if your ribs turned out to be broken!

He rolled his eyes as they stood, excusing themselves from the room

It took a few minutes, but when they returned they carried with them a small bag of ice

Gingerly, they press it to his side, apologizing for jabbing him to begin with

He sighed, expression still very much annoyed

The position of his ears and movement of his tail, however, conveyed his apology

His pride wouldn't allow him to say it aloud, but they'd been around him long enough to understand

I expect you to explain later.

He said nothing, but they knew he would

🧡❣💞🌼🍀for Leona Kingscholar, please! Thanks!

🧡 How do they confess that they like someone?

Outwardly he's acting very casual, almost flippant, but on the inside he's sweating. The chance that you'll say no is still there, as slim as it may seem to him, so he doesn't want to seem too invested in you on the off chance that you may shoot him down. He's still very careful of your image of him when you first get together.

❣️ What makes them blush/gets their heart pounding?

Answered here!

💞 How do you win their heart?

Patiently, with a playful kindness. You don't take his threats to heart, and you don't seem to be scared of him no matter how strong he's proven himself to be. You snap back at his insults with jabs of your own, and you keep hovering around without bother even after he's told you to piss off any number of times already. You've gotta inch your way through the cracks in his armor, chipping away one little piece at a time, before it all crumbles and finally falls away.

🌼 How do they view their significant other? Are they the light in their life? Best friend? Savior, etc.?

His teammate and his treasure. You're someone he can rely on no matter what happens, someone he can trust to be honest with him and not talk smack when he's out of earshot, but you're also someone he would move heaven and earth to protect. He won't let anything happen to you, won't let anyone steal you away.

🍀 What’s their love language?

Quality Time and Gift Giving. He's got more than enough money to throw around from his family inheritance, so he'll spoil you with gifts from time to time, exotic foods from the Sunset Savannah and intricate, beautiful jewelry. And there's nothing he loves more than curling up for a long nap with you in his arms.

Hi, there! So I've read your comic online, and I have to say, I LOVED it! It totally tugged at my heartstrings! The tender emotions, the angst, oh! You totally nailed it! Had it down pat! So when are you continuing the Webtoon comic? I can't wait to see more! What happens next? Please let me know!

Hey, thank you so much! ^^ I don't have a consistent update schedule for Red & Wolf, so I can't give a definitive date and time for the next part, unfortunately. I usually aim for a bi-monthly update but even that isn't very consistent ^^; If you would like progress updates and sneak-previews/WIP of Red & Wolf, and to see the new part a day before it releases on Webtoon Canvas, consider throwing a dollar my way over on my Patreon. Otherwise, it'll update when it updates, I usually give a 24 hour notice on all my socials before a new "episode" goes up though. I appreciate the enthusiasm and I can't wait for you to see the next part :>

LOVE YOU LOTS' Leona is forced to attend one of his brothers banquets with you, he urges you too leave with him so the two of you can go back home and cuddle!..

GENDER NEUTRAL READER A/N: DRUNK CLINGY LEONA? DRUNK CLINGY LEONA. Requested by @sakurarabbit18..

Leona hadn't got the slightest clue, as to how he ended up here.. he was sure that he was home minutes ago, in bed.. cuddling with you. Having all your attention to himself, yet now he's here, attending one of his brothers events... 'So annoying..' he scoffed.. He wished he could go back home..

His gaze turned towards with you, he remembered how about an hour or so your attention was fully on him, and now it's elsewhere, entertaining guests and their various questions as to how you "tamed him" as if it wasn't the other way around..

He'd cause a scene, yet foreign diplomats were here this time around, and he'd rather not create such a scene, in front of you.. he couldn't have his herbivore thinking he's a bad guy and leaving now could he?

About an hour in, Leona's patience had been tested multiple times.. it was getting all the more difficult for the lion to hold his cool.. He's much rather go home, yet because he was a 'prince' he had to stay!..

Even if you couldn't realize it, quite the few servants had taken notice of the prince's dismay and deuterating mood, as he sat on a couch in the corner, refusing to leave or interact with others.. The servants tactfully avoided him, trying their best not to get caught up in one of his lash-outs.

"Hey, you!" Leona called out to a nearby passing servant, "Give that to me!" it was obvious he wasn't in the mood to care, raiding the stash of drinks on the poor servants tray.

"Hey.. herbivore.. I wanna go home" Leona slurred up on his words, making incoherent babbles, but it didn't take a genius to form out his words. "You want to go home" you asked, letting out a chuckle as Leona nodded, one could easily tell that the poor lion had a tad to much to drink, 'he reeks of alcohol' you thought..

"I wanna go home and cuddle!" he claims, wrapping his arms around you. Catching you off-guard, you let out a deep sigh before complying with his demands.. "Ok.. Let's go home..!"

all for show {housewardens}

!! THIS IS A REPOST !! If you see a copy of this post floating around, that was INTENTIONAL! I was shadowbanned :(

@sakurarabbit18 requested: Hi, there~! So I have this really fun idea in my head. I would like a headcannon in which the fem! reader asks the housewardens to be her pretend boyfriend. But what happens when the boys fall in love for real? Super fluff, please! Thanks

sits on hands. I LOVE fake dating hehehe I left the reason for the fake dating kinda vague because I did NOT have a reason they’d agree to ready but I still hope it’s enjoyable! Also sorry if the least two are a bit short I was both getting tired and don’t know a lot about them yet so I’m still in need of some practice ig!

(also sorry for the second tag, I hope you don’t mind!)

I hope you enjoy! Feel free to leave a request!

Riddle

If you watch closely, you can see Riddle go through the five stages of grief as soon as you ask him.

Denial: no way. The prefect who has stopped Overblot after Overblot is not reducing their problem solving skills to this. (They are.)

Anger: How could they?!?! Do they have no respect for the way dating is usually done?! For themselves?! (Apparently not.)

Bargaining: Well, surely it doesn’t have to be him. Ask Ace or Deuce! Just say he’s your boyfriend and don’t make him actually do anything. (It won’t work that way.)

Depression: Is….is he seriously going to do this? If anybody finds out, his reputation will be dragged through the mud! He can imagine the field day Ace and Deuce will have if you ever tell them…

Acceptance: Riddle’s made up his mind, and he is not happy about the decision he made.

You barely have time to cheer for your victory, because before Riddle does anything, he is setting down the ground rules. Most of them start ok: hand holding was a-ok, hugs should rarely be a surprise, only short cheek kisses allowed (he turned bright red and hastily agreed to whatever you said was acceptable)… He even insisted you had to maintain a certain grade point average if he were to help you, as if you were some kind of athlete on a scholarship. Eventually the two of you settle the details, and you skip happily out of the office with a new (fake) boyfriend ready for…whatever it is you have planned.

Riddle, at first, was very…stiff. He wasn’t sure what exactly he was supposed to be doing. After all, he had little to no experience and it’s not like he was particularly invested in the relationship as anything other than a good friend and a man of his word. You’re the one initiating any affection, and the best he can do is not appear wildly uncomfortable and embarrassed when you do.

It’s not that you make him uncomfortable. It’s just…if this were real, he’d definitely opt for affairs to be more private. Making such a literal show out of something that he’d like to keep private just feels…a bit weird.

Don’t worry, though! Eventually, he falls into the act, and he is damn good at pretending to be the perfect boyfriend. It’s definitely less ‘naturally suave and charming’ and more ‘this boy has definitely memorized a syllabus (or several) for an etiquette class before’ but hey! Whatever works, right? Just hope there isn’t a pivotal moment with Ace and Deuce around because…they are weirded out by their bestie pretending to date their housewarden, and they make it known.

“What are you two looking at?” Riddle asked sharply, fighting the urge to shift uncomfortably in his seat. Ace and Deuce had been staring at him like he had grown a second head ever since you left to get your lunch, and he was beginning to fear the incoming outburst.

It was Ace who cracked first, hitting the table with one hand. “Dude, what are you doing? It’d be weird enough if you were dating them for real, but this is even weirder! It’s way weirder, right?”

Deuce nodded. “Definitely. I mean, it’s not exactly our business, but…”

“But we have to watch it from our lunch table! So I think we should get to speak our minds if it’s a daily occurrence.”

Riddle sighed, doing his best not to make a scene. “The prefect and I have everything under control, so-”

Ace’s face suddenly brightened as he got an idea. From experience, Riddle knew that was definitely not good. “Oooohh, I get it! You’re just trying to prove to them that you’d be a good boyfriend because you like them!”

Unable to hold himself back, Riddle stood from his seat and watched as the pair cowered before him. “Don’t you two know how many rules you’re breaking by delving into other people’s personal business? Another word out of you and I’ll have your heads!”

Riddle catches feelings somewhere in the middle of the act (or, if he already had them, they get worse), but he doesn’t even realize anything’s amiss until you tell him you’ll free him in a few days. Then he spends the night wondering why the thought made him feel so heavy and panicky.

He doesn’t strike me as the type to ask you out once the deal is over, though. Honestly, he’s probably still analyzing every last detail, every last emotion he had around you while also trying to figure out if you feel similarly. Did you ask him to be your fake boyfriend because you wanted him to make a move, or do you just really trust him? Were you flustered when he played his part exceptionally well because you liked him, or were you a better actor than he thought?

If YOU ask him out, he’ll stand there starstruck for a solid few seconds before clearing his throat and eventually agreeing. If you don’t, it’ll take him some time. But eventually he’ll ask for your company and begin gently prodding you under the guise of asking if he did a good job. No matter what you answer - telling him yes or teasing him for how strict he was about the whole thing - he’ll clear his throat before asking…did that make you wonder what it’d be like to date for real? He can promise that there will be less rules for this relationship…or, at the very least, more leeway.

Leona

Leona is the worst choice if you’re trying to actually accomplish something, but the best choice if this is a last-ditch attempt to see if he likes you likes you.

Very few things are worth putting in the effort, and the amount of stupid things on that already short list is 0. When you tell him your plan, the only reason Leona doesn’t condescendingly laugh in your face is because he’s pretending to be asleep (a point of pride, really, considering you wouldn’t continue your blathering if you didn’t think he could hear you.)

Whatever your reason for needing a fake boyfriend, you’re only going to convince him through bargaining. Keep in mind, putting up with you and pretending to enjoy it is a tall order. If you’re stuck skipping Crewel’s class two days a week and bringing Leona lunch so he can use you as a pillow, consider that getting off easy.

…you almost would consider yourself lucky, if Leona actually held up his end of the deal. He isn’t pretending to enjoy this at all. Hell, half the time he isn’t even with you. And when he is, he’s doing off or just as gruff as usual. You don’t have a fake boyfriend any more than you have a grumpy lion to babysit.

It’s weird, though, because now Leona is reluctant to leave your side. Before, you could push him off you and eventually have him swagger away to do something else. Now, your prodding is met with a snide grin and him asking you, “What, herbivore, isn’t this what you wanted? I seem to remember you begging and pleading me to-”

Hopefully you don’t need the fact that this is fake to be a secret because…he won’t listen. Whoops.

Honestly, you’re surprised he’s even fulfilling any part of the deal. But the moment you need someone on your defense team, it’s like he appears out of thin air, teeth bared and bad attitude sharpened for lethal destruction.

The second years that were bothering you scrambled to their feet, not willing to go toe-to-toe with Leona when it only took one swipe of his arm to knock them both to the ground. They stammered out useless apologies, meant more to be shields and less to be peacemakers, before running back to safety.

“Tch. Young enough to get into trouble and old enough to prey on the weak,” Leona muttered, rolling his shoulders back as if to shake the irritation off. You tried to blink away your surprise before he turned around, not willing to be the subject of his ire after he nonchalantly threw twice your weight to the ground. But of course he already knew. “What’re you looking so shocked for? I barely did anything.”

“I…didn’t realize you were there,” you said simply. Leona’s ears almost imperceptibly flattened and his tail stilled in its lazy movements against the ground.

Before you could ask him about it, he scoffed. “No wonder they thought you were an easy target, then.”

Neither of you can pinpoint exactly when your arrangement became enjoyable, per se. When you started it felt like your relationship was worse than it had been before, but now Leona seemed to love nuzzling into your shoulder and he could, more often than not, be found trailing after you (as long as you promised you weren’t going far or to do something exhausting). You didn’t remember when he decided it was alright if you ran your fingers through his hair or over his ears, either.

He’s not going to be the one to take the leap and make anything official. As far as he’s concerned, if you’re enjoying yourself you’ll stick around. and if you leave, well, it couldn’t be said he wasn’t your first choice if he never gave you a choice, right? If you’re interested in labels and stuff……just tell him that you no longer need a fake boyfriend but are looking for the real deal. If you ask sweetly enough, he might just offer to fill the spot in for you.

Azul

I’M GONNA BE REAL WITH YOU. MY BOY PROBABLY HAD FEELINGS BEFORE YOU EVEN CAME UP WITH THE IDEA.

When he hears your proposition, he’s torn between two perspectives: one, that you’re certainly toying with him and about to call him a fool for even accepting, or two, that this could be an excellent investment opportunity. He’s nervous, absolutely, but he’s never sensed that sort of hostility from you. (Ignoring the fact that he’s “lowkey” thought you made the sun shine for a while now). So he accepts your proposition, with a very clear IOU from you.

(In his giddiness, he couldn’t quite figure out what to take from you out of this deal, yet he was wise enough to think not wanting anything might make him look desperate. You, in your desperation from…whatever you needed him for, didn’t care much for specifics as long as you got a yes. Perhaps you were BOTH fools.)

Azul puts on quite a show as a fake boyfriend. He’s a master at sidling up beside you when you’re walking in the halls, falling into step with you like it was nothing. His conversation is light, easy, and you find your laughter to come naturally. Azul finds himself handing you small trinkets, charms to hang off your belongings or snacks from the Mostro Lounge (because he’s seen what you put together from Ramshackle, and he describes it to you as cute, his true distaste dripping off his words.)

But there are moments he gets…shy. Like if you laugh for a moment too long he starts to think you thought he was funny for real. Or when you toy nervously with the charm hanging off your phone, or insist he share the snacks he brought for you. When Azul works up the nerve to drape his coat over your shoulders, allowing you to nap atop your assignments while he finishes paperwork, he wants to reach out and touch you, admire the shape of your face, maybe push your hair away, just a bit…

But he doesn’t. For as well as he puts on a show, Azul has never initiated any of the affection. You have, sure. You grab his arm as you walk through the halls, you lean on him when he’s sitting close to you, you’ve even been so bold as to kiss his cheek a few times. Each time, Azul has heard his own word stutter, felt his breath catch and his cheeks warm. It was easy to pretend you were interested in him the way he was interested in you. But at the back of his mind, a voice reminded him that this was pretend. There was a time limit.

As the end of your little deal approaches, Azul gets more and more distant. He stiffens more when you touch him, and sometimes he interrupts your move to kiss his cheek and instead kisses your hand. The one thing he doesn’t give up, though, is walking with you whenever he can.

One night, when he steps onto your porch and prepares to bid you goodnight (he’s never been inside, you note, not since you’ve started this whole charade), you stop him from leaving with a gentle call of his name.

Instantly, he freezes, but he still responds in a level voice. “Yes?”

There is finality hanging in the air, heavier with each day your final date approaches. Rarely has there been a time where you felt just how important a moment was, yet here this moment was, catching you entirely unprepared.

“…what about my IOU?"

"What?” Azul jolted, forcing his glasses askew instead of pushing them up like he intended. “Oh, yes. Your end of the deal.”

Where you felt tension, Azul felt it even more, wanting nothing more than to curl up into a trembling, sniffling ball somewhere and figure out what was going on. He thought he could use this scheme as a practice run, proving to you just how capable he was and how good of a boyfriend he could be so you’d surely realize what you were missing and want him. Instead, it felt more like you were doing a victory lap, then three, then five, proving that you really had captured his heart long ago.

It’ll be up to you to offer up a real relationship. For as much as Azul tries to be the confident businessman with answers to everything, he’s still not quite to the point where he can just brazenly ask you out. Besides, asking you to date him to fulfill a deal just feels nasty and insincere. Nervous and self-conscious as he is, Azul is still greedy, and he wants your love to be genuine, should he ever earn it.

(It’ll be up to you to let him know he already has, but won’t you take the jump if you know he’s already yours?)

Kalim

Here’s the thing: Kalim missed the part where you said fake boyfriend.

As a friend, Kalim is naturally affectionate. He’s not just ‘lean on your shoulder when he’s tired’ affectionate, either. He’s a ‘lean on your shoulder all the time like it’s a wireless charger and he’s a phone at 3% battery’ affectionate. A ‘tackle you to the ground if he’s been away from you for more than an hour’ affectionate. A ‘here, let me shower you in gifts worth more than you’d see in your life otherwise’ affectionate.

So it makes sense that you’d ask him - surely, nothing would change, right? Maybe you’d hold hands a little more obviously, or make up ridiculous pet names for fun, but it couldn’t be too bad, right? Plus, Kalim didn’t leave a bad impression on anybody (mostly), so he’s an obvious choice for a good fake boyfriend.

However….the gifts start rolling in, and you’re not sure what to do.

If Kalim missed the part where you said fake, you were at fault for not following up and setting up clear rules and boundaries. Sometimes Kalim gets so excited about things, you get swept up in the whirlwind, too. But the small mountain of (real???? Almost definitely but you’re too scared to check) gold jewelry growing underneath the socks in your drawers is enough to send you into a small panic.

At first, you try to play it cool, as if this is normal and expected and not totally stressful. Aside from the gifts, things are fine! Kalim is a natural at slinging an arm around you and leaning into you like it’s nothing. He doesn’t just hug you anymore, he holds you tightly and nuzzles up to you, eager to prove you fit like complimentary puzzle pieces. And, while you aren’t familiar with the culture around dating and courting in the Scalding Sands, the garments he begins gifting you seem awfully familiar to the significant pieces he was talking about just days before you got yourself into this mess.

Whatever plot you needed a fake boyfriend for is quickly swept aside as you try to figure out what to do with your maybe-fake-maybe-accidentally-real boyfriend situation. You try to ask Jamil for help, but he only gives a flat look that screams ‘you got yourself into this mess’ and ducks away to go to basketball practice. Clearly an intervention is in order, but you feel like you’re the one that’s lost, and Kalim is a bullet train without working breaks.

“You do remember that the plan was for us to fake our relationship, right?”

There. You said it. That dreaded ‘what are we?’ that you never thought you’d actually have to say was out in the open, feeling just as heavy on your shoulders as it did in your chest. Part of you wondered if you sounded too accusatory, but you were at wit’s end trying to figure the way out of the woods you had gotten lost in.

Kalim’s smile dropped, his eyes widening as his hand flew instinctively to his chest in surprise, his arm a shield in case your words turned to daggers. For a brief second, a crestfallen expression flickered across his face, eyes unfocused and eyebrows furrowing. Just as quickly, though, he replaced it with a smile, one more hollow than before. His hand then moved to rub the back of his neck.

“I overdid it again, didn’t I?”

It’s one of the few times you’ll see Kalim embarrassed and thrown off-kilter. He laughs, but it’s hollow and uncomfortable and you immediately feel bad for being the reason he’s like this. But Kalim is an expert at rebounding, and he’s honest to boot. So he takes a deep breath and proclaims that ok, maybe he messed up the fake dating part, but if you were happy with the way things were going, why not continue where you left off…?

It’s a little strange, at first. Kalim has a little difficulty remembering that to you, you just started dating but to him, it’s been about a month. But his boundless energy swept you away in the first place, and it’ll sweep you away again if you let it. Just…maybe tell him to ease up on the gifts. You’re running out of space for everything he’s given you.

Vil

You’re going to need a very good explanation to even get him to consider this.

See, if you were anywhere but NRC, Vil would assume you were using him for fame or something. It’s not a reflection on you, it’s just that he has eyes on him all the time when he’s in public so naturally you would get some exposure. Honestly, for that reason alone he may reject your proposition, as it’s not worth any of the pain you’d go through just to have a little fun for whatever you need a fake boyfriend for.

But you are at NRC, so things are a little different. Not entirely, as he is still very busy at school and wouldn’t have time to keep the charade up for long. BUT. If you have a specific event and he deems it worthy of his attention, then…fine. He’ll be your date…if you pass his training.

(So maybe this is less 'fake dating’ and more 'you’ve made a fatal mistake asking Vil to be your date to the NRC version of the homecoming dance for revenge,’ but it gets the job done.)

No matter what you already know or have prepared, Vil is taking the reins on this project and he will NOT accept anything less than perfection. It may have been difficult to get him to agree to this, but once he’s part of the plan he is in it to win it. Do you already have an outfit? Too bad if he doesn’t like it, the two of you are an item, you will look the part and it will not look like that. Do you need to know how to dance? Well, lucky you, you’ve got yourself a personal trainer who is extremely adept at all types of dances. Vil doesn’t cut corners on anything, and to top it off he is an actor. You are going to look like the perfect couple whether you like it or not.

The first few weeks of preparations put more strain on your relationship than anything. Vil is renowned for being a vicious teacher, and you were already simply looking for an easy way out of your problem. The two of you are at each other’s throats, practically snarling at each other each time you pull each other in to practice a dance again.

Eventually it mellows down, of course, and the tense frustration simmering between you two is erased as you focus on a joint goal. Maybe you wouldn’t be taking an easy way out of your problem, but you’d have a fake boyfriend at the end of the day, which is really what you wanted. Besides, you’re starting to pick up on Vil’s sense of humor, the dry and sarcastic quips he makes while you guys are chatting through your last runthrough of the evening. If you’re trying to avoid or get back at a certain person through this plot, he’s immediately invested and on your side, meeting every frustrated sigh of yours with a comment.

Vil would be lying if he said he wasn’t sensing the changes in the atmosphere between the two of you. You’ve been spending more and more time together, so of course you’ve grown closer, but he’s finding you endlessly endearing. He rather likes how hard you’ve been working to meet his standards, and though petty drama is beneath him, he finds it rather amusing how far you’d go to purposely spite someone. Vil is rather glad he took you up on your ridiculous offer; you never fail to surpass his expectations, and he’s finding out that he rather enjoys that about you.

The day of your event rolls around, and a part of you is nervous. You realize you have no idea how you’re going to deal with the fallout - people will surely wonder why you dropped the Vil Schoenheit, how you landed him in the first place, and all of a sudden you’re certain you forgot everything you spent so much time learning. This isn’t the first time Vil’s dealt with a rookie that has a bad case of stage fright, though. However, this might be the first time he’s purposely making it worse.

“By the way,” Vil starts moments before he opens the door to lead you into the room where everybody else is already mingling. “You don’t mind if I give a few last-minute notes, do you?”

Immediately you tense, flinching aggressively as if trying to retreat into a shell. Vil, stoic as always, watches you sputter with an expertly-concealed smirk. His perfectly painted lips barely quirk up at the corners, but if you were less preoccupied, he knows you would’ve spotted it anyway.

“Of course you don’t,” he decides for you, ignoring your fragmented protests. “We are prepared to give them the most dazzling display they’ve seen yet, but it’s missing a certain authenticity. Why settle for mere costume jewelry when we can offer them something real.”

“Authenticity…” You murmur, your eyes searching his. Something almost mischievous sparks within them, and a few moments later everything finally clicks. “Wait, are you really asking me out?”

“Does it surprise you? I can’t imagine it’d be much different than what we’ve already been doing.”

“…There will probably be less dancing.”

“Hm. What a shame. I suppose we’ll have to make tonight count, then.” With that, Vil opened the doors, allowing all eyes to almost immediately fall on you. Your face grew warm and you took a side-step closer to Vil, hoping to gain a fraction of the confidence he radiated.

Idia

You are trying to kill him, aren’t you? He already said he was sorry he got the rare character you were excited for and you didn’t a thousand times, there’s no need to resort to murder!!

I don’t think Idia has it in him to do this irl. If you’re in a chat room and some people are being creeps, he can step in. But that’s kind of a one time thing.

However…he will agree to be your emergency contact.

In a car and you don’t feel safe? Talk to him the whole way and put him on speaker. Need someone to send you a barrage of texts so it looks like someone has been begging for your attention? He’s your man. After a short while, he’ll even send lazy pictures of half his face so you have something to show others like 'see? see?? I told you I have a boyfriend.’

Here’s the thing that Idia won’t tell you: He’ll pick up your calls at any time, as soon as he gets them. He’ll respond to you as quickly as he can just to hear back from you even faster. He’s not so good at letting people know how he feels or even knowing himself how he feels, and the thought of you knowing how much he values you leaves him feeling kind of itchy, but he’s happy to help you if you’re in need. Honestly, the thought soothes some of the complicated feelings he’s opened himself into. Maybe the cute selfies and messages you send are part of an act, but you genuinely trust him to be your fake boyfriend. It’s an honor all its own, if you think about it.

Except he CAN’T think about it because the more he realizes what sort of shoujo manga hijinks he agreed to and he crawls under his covers to process it.

Idia checked his phone while the next level loads, shoulders slumping once he saw it was all game notifications and nothing from you. He thought about sending you another message, especially since some of your last messages mentioned someone giving you a bad vibe and wanting to leave, but what if he just ruined your socialization by asking about you?

Maybe you didn’t need a fake boyfriend anymore because you had found a real one.

Idia turned his volume up again in case you messaged, and started his game.

Sometimes Idia talks himself into a bad mood, one that ruins his vibe for forever both because he feels worthless and then feels more worthless for thinking about you in such a bad light. You can even notice it over text in the slightly longer response time and the suddenly accurate punctuation.

He won’t do much about his feelings, even as they continue to grow. He’s already fighting for his life out here, trying to figure out the brand new environment he threw himself into. You’ll have to take the next step - but don’t worry about him rejecting you. You seem to have a knack for roping him into your crazy ideas already.

Malleus

His first thought is oh, dear. I’ve made a grave mistake somewhere.

Similar to Azul, he’ll start to think that perhaps this is a trial period, or a courting ritual from where you’re from. Those are the only terms he’ll understand it under. Everything else confuses him - why act exactly like you’re dating and not date for real and have the benefits forever?

Still, once he wraps his head around it, he goes all in. If you want to convince people he’s your boyfriend, he is going to convince people. Malleus before had a habit of toeing the line, occasionally acting a bit intimately that might suggest he had feelings for you. Now he’s over-the-top romantic, taking advice from every piece of courting and dating rituals and advice he’s ever perceived. (Some of it goes better than others, and yes, Lilia’s advice is 50/50)

The bad news is, since he is still Malleus, people are hardly around to see the show you’re putting on. The good news is this plan has worked wonders if you were trying to get some creep off your back.

“So, where else do you need to go today?”

The other people on the sidewalk gave you a much wider berth than normal, not wanting to approach the formidable Malleus Draconia. It would have been funny, how they avoided the man who was nothing but sweet on you, if it wasn’t sort of sad. You could see why Malleus felt so isolated all the time - you were feeling crestfallen after a few hours a day of this obvious avoidance.

“Actually, I only need to head home. Grim’s waiting on me to make dinner,” You answered, shrugging your bag higher on your shoulder. “Thanks for walking with-”

“I’ll be happy to accompany you,” He interrupted before you could urge him to part ways with you. Furrowing your eyebrows, you nodded.

“Okay…if you insist.”

If you let him know it’s about time to start winding down the act, Malleus…won’t listen. He’ll never overstep to make you uncomfortable, but having such singular attention from you for so long was kind of a dream come true. Plus, Malleus has a sinking feeling that your withdrawal won’t stop once the two of you return to being friends as you were.

If you don’t make a move, he will. The two of you will be walking at night like you used to, and it’ll be one of the most romantic things you could think of in such short notice. Please, please accept him - he isn’t sure he can lose you now, not when he’s already in this deep.

That Lovely Smile

Author’s Note: I wasn’t sure how to approach this until the idea popped in my head tonight. If you ever ask for fluff and romance, don’t be surprised if I put a dancing scene in the fic. Also, I ended up just writing reader a bit as gender neutral.

Request: Yes, by @sakurarabbit18

Howdy do~! I’d like to request a fluffy one-shot in which Azul Ashengrotto asks his fem! s/o what she wants in exchange for her services with the Lounge, to which she simply replies, “Just smile your lovely smile for me. That’s all I want.” Make it super romantic, please! Thanks a bunch!

Pairing: Azul x Female! SO

“Maybe being a waitress would bring in more customers?” You suggest taking a sip of your drink.

“That’s an interesting idea, we’ll have to see about it.”

Here you were, sitting in the office of the cunning merman, needing to make some money and an excuse to hang out with Azul more. Azul has been your crush for a while and the twins knew but left Azul out of the loop so he could figure it out on his own and they wanted some entertainment. Coincidentally, Azul offered you a position at the lounge if you were ever interested.

“Let’s talk about your salary,” He brought up and grabbed a pen. “How much do you want to be paid?”

“Just smile your lovely smile for me. That’s all I want.” You smile brightly, causing Azul’s cheeks to redden. You watched Azul’s face transition through the various shades of red and pink while sputtering out fragments of sentences. You just smile as it got worse before he finally calmed himself and cleared his throat, ignoring that lovable smug face of yours.

“As much as I feel touched about your request,” He spoke, breaking the cute moment. “I’m just going to pay you like the other employees.”

“Alright, as long as I get to see your smile.”

You give this boy a hard time and material for the twins to tease Azul about. You start working and as predicted, more students came in which kept you busy. You would work evening shifts and occasionally would end up closing with the main trio. You started the habit of putting music on while you cleaned to help speed up the process. Floyd would pull you into a small dance as Jade would chuckle at both of your foolishness.

One night, you were cleaning up the floor and wiping tables down as music was playing in the background, keeping you company. Humming softly as you stepped in beat with the music and incorporated little twirls. It was like every other night.

Yet, what caught you off guard was a hand took a hold of yours and twirled you around before dipping you. You look up to see Azul, holding you with a small smug face on his face while a blush was on yours. My, how the tables have turned.

You let out a hearty laugh as Azul brought you back to your own two feet and led you to a small waltz while the music started to get louder, adding to the ambience. You both danced together as the world disappeared and only blurred soft lights. You noticed after a while that Azul had a bright smile on his face, dazzling brightly. After a while, it slowly came to an end as he gave you one last twirl before bringing you close.

“There it is.”

“What?” He questioned with a bit of confusion.

“That lovely smile of yours,” you smile at him before kissing his rosy cheek. “The only payment I’ll take.”

“Well, then let me give you a raise on your payment, if you don’t mind.”

“What did you have in mind?”

He leans in and kisses your lips gently as you wrap your arms around him, pulling him closer as you two kissed before pulling away.

“That’s a pretty good raise.”

Insecurity (HC)

Fandom: Twisted Wonderland

Pairing: Azul x fem!Reader

Warning: Spoilers from chapter 3.

Requested by: @sakurarabbit18

Prompt: Hi, there! Love your writing! Can I request a fluff/angst headcannon in which an insecure Azul's female s/o tries to cheer him up by saying that she absolutely loves his octopus form, telling him that it makes him look truly beautiful? Thanks a bunch!

A/N: Hi! Thank you! Such a cute request. :3

———————————————

Azul generally didn’t mind when you complimented the Leech brothers, but the day you said they look amazing in their original forms, the octopus felt a sting in his heart.

Everyone was either fascinated with the eels or terrified of them, and they had it all - the looks, the height, the swimming speed, the power, and most of all, each other. Ever since they were kids, the brothers were very popular, but he...he was that chubby tiny octopus who hid in his pot and was fun to pick on.

He couldn’t swim fast, didn’t have the looks, was a round blob, had eight legs, and worst of them all, whenever he was nervous, stressed, or emotional, he inked himself. What did he do to deserve this fate? Why couldn’t he be cool in his original form like the twins?

Azul never thought he would end up dating you, but if he had the slightest hint, he would never have sent you to the underwater museum to retrieve his class photo. Now, you knew how ugly he looked in his octopus form.

The dorm leader sunk into his office chair and pulled the brim of his hat lower on his face. Maybe he could come up with a potion to look cooler in his octopus form - there had to be something in some book that could allow him to change his appearance, right?

“H-Hey Azul. Are you busy?” You peeked into his office, catching him off guard. He quickly sat up in his chair and fixed his hat, forcing a smile and motioning you to come inside.

“Um...I have something I want to ask. I don’t want to beat around the bush, so I’m going to ask directly. You have been acting odd since the day I saw the twins in their eel form. Is there a reason for that?”

“N-No...,” Azul cleared his throat and lowered his gaze to his desk, “I apologize if I made you uncomfortable.”

You should have known there was no way he would answer the question. So much for plan A. But at least this time, you thought of a plan B in case A failed. “My dear Azul, you know we are dating, right?”

“Y-Yes. Why...do you ask?” He was surprised to hear that question but patiently waited for you to continue.

“And you know I already saw what you looked like in your original form, right? I saw your childhood photo and your overblotted form.”

Azul nodded but couldn’t understand why you were asking him such obvious questions. Chuckling, you walked closer to his desk and rested your hand on top of his, “What I’m trying to say is, Azul Ashengrotto, the reason I’m dating you is because I like you just the way you are. I know why you dislike your original form, but my sweet octopus, I think you look amazing as a human and as an octopus.”

“You...do?” The house warden gave you a long, hard look as if he didn't believe your words.

“Yes! Octopuses have big brains and are smart, and Azul, you are one of the smartest students in NRC. Even the headmaster is kinda scared of you and your abilities. Octopuses have three hearts ~ all the more to love me with.” You giggled cutely, “You have eight legs, and if I remember correctly, you used those tentacles to read eight books at the same time. Most people can’t focus when reading one book, and you read EIGHT. If that’s not cool, I don’t know what is.”

You paused for a second to look at his shocked expressions before continuing. “Lastly, you are embarrassed about inking, right? Just like humans use words and violence as self-defense, octopuses use ink. That’s not something you should be ashamed of. Azul, your octopus form is amazing, and I would love to see you in that form one day. So, would you please show me what you look like whenever you are ready?”

Azul took a moment to digest your words and gave a slight nod, still taken aback by your compliments. Thanking him, you gave a playful smile. “I just have one last question. By any chance, were you jealous of me complimenting the twins?”

“Uh...I...what? N-No,” he turned his face away, but it was already too late, you saw his red cheeks.

“So, you were jealous! Aww, my boyfriend is jealous, so cute,” you teased him ruthlessly, much to his dismay. “But, on a serious note, Azul, I like you and you only. Always remember that.”

“(Y/n),” he spoke in a gentle voice while softly gazing into your eyes. “Thank you.”

Howdy do~! First of all, congrats on the 400 followers! I'd like to request prompt no. 20 "You make me feel safe." with Leona Kingscholar, please! Thanks a bunch!

sakurarabbit18 asked:

Hello, hello! I would like prompt no. 6 "I want you to be a part of my future." with Leona Kingscholar, please! Thanks! And congrats on the 400! 👍

"You make me feel safe" and "I want you to be a part of my future." | Leona Kingscholar [400 Follower Event]

Prompt: "You make me feel safe" and "I want you to be a part of my future." [Prompt List]

Content: Written from Leona's POV, Fluff, A Grain of Angst, Weddings

Pronouns: None

Reblogs: Over Likes

Leona loathed the number two.

“Second Son.”

“Second Prince”

He thought that was his place in life

To be second.

He never once thought that he’d be first in anything important.

Sure he could have been top student at NCR

But what was the point in that

It wouldn’t feel that hole in his heart.

Until he met you.

You were different.

You didn’t make him feel like he was second in your life.

Even with those two card idiots you called friends.

You devoted your time and energy to him

And he did the same.

Then slowly

But surely

The two of you fell in love.

From “Second Son” to “First Love”

From “Second Prince” to “First Husband”

“You may now kiss your beloved.”

And as he looked into your eyes he realized

That he was ready to share so many firsts with you.

Including your first kiss as ring bound beloveds.

No thoughts on marrying Leona. Also thank you for the congratulations lol

EDIT: GIRL HELP I FORGOT THE DAMN TITLE

Howdy do~! First of all, congrats on the 100! 👍 For the prompt list, I would like angst #6 with Leona Kingscholar, please! Angst with a happy ending, please? Thanks a bunch!

Tysm!!

For some reason??? I can't see this on mobile lol thank u tumblr

Angst 6: “You deserve better”

I HAVEN'T SLEPT FOR MORE THAN FOUR HOURS OVER THE COURSE OF THE THE PAST 3 DAYS IM LOSING MY SHIT I PHYSICALLY CAN'T FUNCTION HELP

For once, sleep wouldn't come to him.

He lie in bed, restlessly, emerald eyes glued to the ceiling

A scowl crossed his face, a low growl rose in his throat

He hated this more than anything

The lack of sleep thay came with these thoughts irritated him to no end

He rolled onto his side and stared outside

He was seething

But after his recent overblot he couldn't help himself

The things that he said and did to his partner in that state ate at him

Even though they'd sensed his feelings, told him they didn't hold it against him, and that it's okay

He couldn't forgive himself

But he didn't expect it to deprive him of sleep

He closed his eyes but the sandman still wouldn't pay him a visit

He rolled over again, this time facing his significant other that lie fitlessly dreaming next to him

He envied them, their sleep

But his glare softened almost immediately

He wouldn't dare subject them to his current situation

Especially not after all they'd done

He rolled onto his back, arm behind his head as they stirred next to him

His tossing and turning had woken them

They rubbed their groggy eyes, calling his name in a question

He cracked an eye open, looking at them from his periphery before closing his eyes again

Humming in response as they stared at him sleepily

His tail thumped against the mattress quietly in irritation, knowing as soon as he locked eyes with them, they pieced together that he was troubled

They sat up on their elbow with a frown before running a gentle hand through his hair

It was their way of asking what was wrong without verbalizing it

He said nothing, choosing to ignore their muted question and enjoy their fingers carding through his mane

Hm... Leona, you're avoiding again

Their voice was raspy with sleep and very quiet

His ears twitched and he sneered as he opened his eyes once more subtly leaning into their touch

Softly, they rubbed his ears and in response he let out a sigh

He knew they wouldn't ridicule or judge his thought process, however, his pride prevented him from coming clean

They called his name again, more imperative this time

He knew, however, that they wouldn't scold him

He huffed, but nonetheless answered dismissively

You deserve better. Happy?

He turned onto his side away from them, letting out a yawn, tail still thumping, ears slightly flattened in vexation

They froze, hand stopping in their ministrations

His words made their heart ache, their hand moved from his hair to wrap around him in the best hug they could manage to give him at that angle

Leona Kingscholar.

They startled themselves with the intensity of their tone but held their ground

His tail ceased it's flicking and his ears perked up, a telltale sign to show them that he was listening

However, no move was made to face them

They removed their arms from his waist, sat up and pushed him onto his back

Before he could react they straddled his waist, their attempt at preventing him from turning away again while ignoring the fact that he could flip their positions at a moments notice

Under any other circumstances, he'd be smug

They held his face gingerly as they pressed their forehead to his

I don't want anyone else but you, you know. You're everything I could ever ask for.

He clicked his tongue, and with a roll of his eyes he called them sappy

But a weight was lifted off his shoulders, and they could tell

He placed his hands on their hips and squeezed lightly, a silent, nonverbal thank you for their words

Then suddenly he flipped them off of him, wrapping his arms around them tightly

They let out a noise of surprise and he shushed them,

He yawned again

Sleep finally came

Hi, there, windblume! I've heard that both you and your mom are suffering some kind of cancer? I don't know the full details, but I hope it's nothing serious. I hope both you and your mom are doing well. Prayers for your recovery.🙏 P.S. Your stories are awesome! You're awesome, too! Keep on being awesome and keep up the good work!👍

❦ 𝔾𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤 𝕋𝕣𝕒𝕧𝕖𝕝𝕖𝕣! ❦

As of now my mum is the only one with confirmed cancer, she had her Melanoma removed in February and is healed up splendidly, as for me, I have my appointment for Dermatology that will look the spot over and maybe get a sample (not particularly sure as of how that works) and test it. Seeing as the spot has been a part of me for some time and has gotten darker and larger it could be what mum had. This spot could very well be nothing, just a simple birthmark, but it is better safe to check than not. One can never be too sure, especially with this being in genetics.

I hope it is nothing serious as well, but knowing my medical luck there is always something happening haha. so I can only hope for the best! And thank you for your prayers, they are very much needed. Just today I broke down crying when I looked in the mirror as I saw the spot, I cried into my phone to my friend who is like my twin. It is rather stressful and just a hard time but prayers just always seem to help, their energy is quite comforting.

Ah- here I am getting all choked up again-

I'm also so happy to see that you like my works! That truly means a lot, @sakurarabbit18 ! I do hope you stay for more of my upcoming work! :)

all for show {housewardens}

I hope you enjoy! Feel free to leave a request!

Riddle

If you watch closely, you can see Riddle go through the five stages of grief as soon as you ask him.

Denial: no way. The prefect who has stopped Overblot after Overblot is not reducing their problem solving skills to this. (They are.)

Anger: How could they?!?! Do they have no respect for the way dating is usually done?! For themselves?! (Apparently not.)

Bargaining: Well, surely it doesn't have to be him. Ask Ace or Deuce! Just say he's your boyfriend and don't make him actually do anything. (It won't work that way.)

Depression: Is….is he seriously going to do this? If anybody finds out, his reputation will be dragged through the mud! He can imagine the field day Ace and Deuce will have if you ever tell them…

Acceptance: Riddle's made up his mind, and he is not happy about the decision he made.

You barely have time to cheer for your victory, because before Riddle does anything, he is setting down the ground rules. Most of them start ok: hand holding was a-ok, hugs should rarely be a surprise, only short cheek kisses allowed (he turned bright red and hastily agreed to whatever you said was acceptable)... He even insisted you had to maintain a certain grade point average if he were to help you, as if you were some kind of athlete on a scholarship. Eventually the two of you settle the details, and you skip happily out of the office with a new (fake) boyfriend ready for…whatever it is you have planned.

Deuce nodded. “Definitely. I mean, it’s not exactly our business, but…”

“But we have to watch it from our lunch table! So I think we should get to speak our minds if it’s a daily occurrence.”

Riddle sighed, doing his best not to make a scene. “The prefect and I have everything under control, so-”

Leona

Leona is the worst choice if you're trying to actually accomplish something, but the best choice if this is a last-ditch attempt to see if he likes you likes you.

Very few things are worth putting in the effort, and the amount of stupid things on that already short list is 0. When you tell him your plan, the only reason Leona doesn't condescendingly laugh in your face is because he's pretending to be asleep (a point of pride, really, considering you wouldn't continue your blathering if you didn't think he could hear you.)

Whatever your reason for needing a fake boyfriend, you're only going to convince him through bargaining. Keep in mind, putting up with you and pretending to enjoy it is a tall order. If you're stuck skipping Crewel's class two days a week and bringing Leona lunch so he can use you as a pillow, consider that getting off easy.

…you almost would consider yourself lucky, if Leona actually held up his end of the deal. He isn't pretending to enjoy this at all. Hell, half the time he isn't even with you. And when he is, he's doing off or just as gruff as usual. You don't have a fake boyfriend any more than you have a grumpy lion to babysit.

It's weird, though, because now Leona is reluctant to leave your side. Before, you could push him off you and eventually have him swagger away to do something else. Now, your prodding is met with a snide grin and him asking you, "What, herbivore, isn't this what you wanted? I seem to remember you begging and pleading me to-"

Hopefully you don't need the fact that this is fake to be a secret because…he won't listen. Whoops.

Honestly, you're surprised he's even fulfilling any part of the deal. But the moment you need someone on your defense team, it's like he appears out of thin air, teeth bared and bad attitude sharpened for lethal destruction.

"Tch. Young enough to get into trouble and old enough to prey on the weak," Leona muttered, rolling his shoulders back as if to shake the irritation off. You tried to blink away your surprise before he turned around, not willing to be the subject of his ire after he nonchalantly threw twice your weight to the ground. But of course he already knew. “What’re you looking so shocked for? I barely did anything.”

“I…didn’t realize you were there,” you said simply. Leona’s ears almost imperceptibly flattened and his tail stilled in its lazy movements against the ground.

Before you could ask him about it, he scoffed. “No wonder they thought you were an easy target, then.”

Azul

I'M GONNA BE REAL WITH YOU. MY BOY PROBABLY HAD FEELINGS BEFORE YOU EVEN CAME UP WITH THE IDEA.

When he hears your proposition, he's torn between two perspectives: one, that you're certainly toying with him and about to call him a fool for even accepting, or two, that this could be an excellent investment opportunity. He's nervous, absolutely, but he's never sensed that sort of hostility from you. (Ignoring the fact that he's "lowkey" thought you made the sun shine for a while now). So he accepts your proposition, with a very clear IOU from you.

(In his giddiness, he couldn't quite figure out what to take from you out of this deal, yet he was wise enough to think not wanting anything might make him look desperate. You, in your desperation from…whatever you needed him for, didn't care much for specifics as long as you got a yes. Perhaps you were BOTH fools.)

Azul puts on quite a show as a fake boyfriend. He's a master at sidling up beside you when you're walking in the halls, falling into step with you like it was nothing. His conversation is light, easy, and you find your laughter to come naturally. Azul finds himself handing you small trinkets, charms to hang off your belongings or snacks from the Mostro Lounge (because he's seen what you put together from Ramshackle, and he describes it to you as cute, his true distaste dripping off his words.)

But he doesn't. For as well as he puts on a show, Azul has never initiated any of the affection. You have, sure. You grab his arm as you walk through the halls, you lean on him when he's sitting close to you, you've even been so bold as to kiss his cheek a few times. Each time, Azul has heard his own word stutter, felt his breath catch and his cheeks warm. It was easy to pretend you were interested in him the way he was interested in you. But at the back of his mind, a voice reminded him that this was pretend. There was a time limit.

As the end of your little deal approaches, Azul gets more and more distant. He stiffens more when you touch him, and sometimes he interrupts your move to kiss his cheek and instead kisses your hand. The one thing he doesn't give up, though, is walking with you whenever he can.

One night, when he steps onto your porch and prepares to bid you goodnight (he's never been inside, you note, not since you've started this whole charade), you stop him from leaving with a gentle call of his name.

Instantly, he freezes, but he still responds in a level voice. "Yes?"

"...what about my IOU?"

"What?" Azul jolted, forcing his glasses askew instead of pushing them up like he intended. "Oh, yes. Your end of the deal."

Where you felt tension, Azul felt it even more, wanting nothing more than to curl up into a trembling, sniffling ball somewhere and figure out what was going on. He thought he could use this scheme as a practice run, proving to you just how capable he was and how good of a boyfriend he could be so you'd surely realize what you were missing and want him. Instead, it felt more like you were doing a victory lap, then three, then five, proving that you really had captured his heart long ago.

It'll be up to you to offer up a real relationship. For as much as Azul tries to be the confident businessman with answers to everything, he's still not quite to the point where he can just brazenly ask you out. Besides, asking you to date him to fulfill a deal just feels nasty and insincere. Nervous and self-conscious as he is, Azul is still greedy, and he wants your love to be genuine, should he ever earn it.

(It’ll be up to you to let him know he already has, but won’t you take the jump if you know he’s already yours?)

Kalim

Here's the thing: Kalim missed the part where you said fake boyfriend.

However….the gifts start rolling in, and you’re not sure what to do.

At first, you try to play it cool, as if this is normal and expected and not totally stressful. Aside from the gifts, things are fine! Kalim is a natural at slinging an arm around you and leaning into you like it's nothing. He doesn't just hug you anymore, he holds you tightly and nuzzles up to you, eager to prove you fit like complimentary puzzle pieces. And, while you aren't familiar with the culture around dating and courting in the Scalding Sands, the garments he begins gifting you seem awfully familiar to the significant pieces he was talking about just days before you got yourself into this mess.

Whatever plot you needed a fake boyfriend for is quickly swept aside as you try to figure out what to do with your maybe-fake-maybe-accidentally-real boyfriend situation. You try to ask Jamil for help, but he only gives a flat look that screams 'you got yourself into this mess' and ducks away to go to basketball practice. Clearly an intervention is in order, but you feel like you're the one that's lost, and Kalim is a bullet train without working breaks.

“You do remember that the plan was for us to fake our relationship, right?”

“I overdid it again, didn’t I?”

It's one of the few times you'll see Kalim embarrassed and thrown off-kilter. He laughs, but it's hollow and uncomfortable and you immediately feel bad for being the reason he's like this. But Kalim is an expert at rebounding, and he's honest to boot. So he takes a deep breath and proclaims that ok, maybe he messed up the fake dating part, but if you were happy with the way things were going, why not continue where you left off…?

It's a little strange, at first. Kalim has a little difficulty remembering that to you, you just started dating but to him, it's been about a month. But his boundless energy swept you away in the first place, and it'll sweep you away again if you let it. Just…maybe tell him to ease up on the gifts. You're running out of space for everything he's given you.

Vil

You're going to need a very good explanation to even get him to consider this.

See, if you were anywhere but NRC, Vil would assume you were using him for fame or something. It's not a reflection on you, it's just that he has eyes on him all the time when he's in public so naturally you would get some exposure. Honestly, for that reason alone he may reject your proposition, as it's not worth any of the pain you'd go through just to have a little fun for whatever you need a fake boyfriend for.

But you are at NRC, so things are a little different. Not entirely, as he is still very busy at school and wouldn't have time to keep the charade up for long. BUT. If you have a specific event and he deems it worthy of his attention, then…fine. He'll be your date…if you pass his training.

(So maybe this is less 'fake dating' and more 'you've made a fatal mistake asking Vil to be your date to the NRC version of the homecoming dance for revenge,' but it gets the job done.)

“By the way,” Vil starts moments before he opens the door to lead you into the room where everybody else is already mingling. “You don’t mind if I give a few last-minute notes, do you?”

“Does it surprise you? I can’t imagine it’d be much different than what we’ve already been doing.”

“...There will probably be less dancing.”

Idia

You are trying to kill him, aren't you? He already said he was sorry he got the rare character you were excited for and you didn't a thousand times, there's no need to resort to murder!!

I don't think Idia has it in him to do this irl. If you're in a chat room and some people are being creeps, he can step in. But that's kind of a one time thing.

However…he will agree to be your emergency contact.

In a car and you don't feel safe? Talk to him the whole way and put him on speaker. Need someone to send you a barrage of texts so it looks like someone has been begging for your attention? He's your man. After a short while, he'll even send lazy pictures of half his face so you have something to show others like 'see? see?? I told you I have a boyfriend.'

Here's the thing that Idia won't tell you: He'll pick up your calls at any time, as soon as he gets them. He'll respond to you as quickly as he can just to hear back from you even faster. He’s not so good at letting people know how he feels or even knowing himself how he feels, and the thought of you knowing how much he values you leaves him feeling kind of itchy, but he’s happy to help you if you’re in need. Honestly, the thought soothes some of the complicated feelings he’s opened himself into. Maybe the cute selfies and messages you send are part of an act, but you genuinely trust him to be your fake boyfriend. It’s an honor all its own, if you think about it.

Except he CAN’T think about it because the more he realizes what sort of shoujo manga hijinks he agreed to and he crawls under his covers to process it.

Maybe you didn’t need a fake boyfriend anymore because you had found a real one.

Idia turned his volume up again in case you messaged, and started his game.

Malleus

His first thought is oh, dear. I've made a grave mistake somewhere.

Similar to Azul, he'll start to think that perhaps this is a trial period, or a courting ritual from where you're from. Those are the only terms he'll understand it under. Everything else confuses him - why act exactly like you're dating and not date for real and have the benefits forever?

Still, once he wraps his head around it, he goes all in. If you want to convince people he's your boyfriend, he is going to convince people. Malleus before had a habit of toeing the line, occasionally acting a bit intimately that might suggest he had feelings for you. Now he's over-the-top romantic, taking advice from every piece of courting and dating rituals and advice he's ever perceived. (Some of it goes better than others, and yes, Lilia’s advice is 50/50)

The bad news is, since he is still Malleus, people are hardly around to see the show you're putting on. The good news is this plan has worked wonders if you were trying to get some creep off your back.

“So, where else do you need to go today?”

“Actually, I only need to head home. Grim’s waiting on me to make dinner,” You answered, shrugging your bag higher on your shoulder. “Thanks for walking with-”

“I’ll be happy to accompany you,” He interrupted before you could urge him to part ways with you. Furrowing your eyebrows, you nodded.

“Okay…if you insist.”

“So, Riddle, what do you want to do first?” You asked as you walked through the entry gate and examined the nearby rides. Not getting a reply from your boyfriend, you stopped and turned around to see him standing still under the entrance archway.

With a sparkle in his eyes and mouth slightly ajar, Riddle examined the colorful rides, taking in their grand stature. He lowered his eyes and looked at the merchandise carts - toys of all shapes and sizes, magnets, figurines, hats, t-shirts, jackets, shot glasses, keychains, and various other souvenirs. Shifting his gaze to the left side, Riddle saw a collection of food stalls, and on cue, a conglomeration of smells tickled his nose; the smell of heating oil, which he assumed was used to fry junk food; the scent of spices mixed with cooked meat; and a hint of sweetness, which he assumed came from the dessert stall.

For minutes, you stood in place with your eyes fixed on your curious boyfriend, attempting to read his mind. One second, the corners of your lips curled up, but the next, your lips fell flat. Riddle seemed happy, and that made your heart leap, but at the same time, you couldn’t stop your mind from questioning his mother’s choices. You could understand that his mother wanted him to be as successful as her, but at what cost? Not being allowed to eat sweets, have fun, spend time with friends...not being allowed to be happy...not being allowed to be a child. You imagined Riddle as a child, sitting in a dark room, huddled up in a corner with his knees pressed to his chest, crying his heart out.

“(Y/n)?” Riddle’s concerned voice brought you back to the present just in time to see him reaching his fingertips to your cheeks. With the gentlest touch, he wiped the tears rolling down your cheeks. “Why...might you be crying?”

“S-Sorry. I am just really happy that you are here with me.” You tied your arms around his neck and hid your face in his right shoulder, earning a few “aww”s from people passing by. Though Riddle felt shy to display affection in public, he returned your hug, still wondering why you suddenly started crying.

“Hey, Riddle, let’s have fun today! I want to see you smile and relax. You work too hard.”

And fun did the two of you have - from screaming together on rollercoasters, taking photos in a photo booth, getting soaked on the log chute, thinking about going on the elevator of terror but running away after hearing the screams of the riders, taking it easy on the carousel, crashing into each other and laughing in the bumper cars, approaching the elevator of terror again but backing out at the last moment, grasping each other tightly while walking through the haunted house, gathering the courage to finally ride the elevator and screaming your lungs out but laughing afterward, and ending the day with the Ferris wheel.

Staring out the window of the Ferris wheel cab, you took in the sight of the orange, yellow, and blue artistic sky as the sun gradually lowered into the horizon. Riddle shifted his gaze between you and the sky, struggling to decide whether or not to ask the question that had been bothering him the entire day. In the end, his curiosity won, and he turned his full attention to you, “(Y/n), why were you crying earlier?”

“Hm? Oh...that,” you forced the corners of your lips up and stared at your lap, “I didn’t lie to you, Riddle. I really was crying because I was happy.”

“I am aware you were speaking the truth, but you withheld the entire truth from me, did you not?”

Chuckling, you lifted your eyes to meet his steel-colored orbs, “Why do you have to be so sharp? Riddle, your smile means the world to me, and I want to give you all the happiness in the world.” You leaned forward in your seat and gently clasp his right hand between your hands. “Let’s go on lots of dates and make happy memories!”

Riddle knew you still weren’t telling him everything, but he lifted your hands and pressed his lips to the back of each hand. “I look forward to it.”
