The Star that Enchants

Pairings: Various Honkai Star Rail Men x Isekai'd!Reader

Summary: Ever since Nanook decided to tag along on your journey across the stars, the men have been tensed around the Aeon of Destruction. Nanook notices the men have taken an interest in you and have decided to test their patience and show them who you belong to. Can they blame you? It's not your fault you unknowingly enchant people easily.

Note: Man, I did not plan for this fic to be posted so late 😭 It's almost 7 AM, and the fic is finally here! I didn't fall asleep or abandon this fic. I was just easily distracted (and also had to drive my mom to work). Anyway, the fic is finally here! I hope you guys like this one despite me typing it out with no sleep at all! ;v; There are important links down below for those who want to vote regarding smuts and for those who want to be tagged in the next HSR fics :> I don't post anywhere else but on Tumblr (Genshinluvr) and on AO3 (Aaliah_exo).

Warnings: None that I know of 🤔

You bury your face into your pillow, squeezing your body pillow with all your might. Oddly enough, your body pillow is very hard and not as soft as you remembered. It rumbles underneath you, causing you to groan softly, bury your face into the soft fabric of the pillowcase, and attempt to go back to sleep. Why does the pillowcase smell so good? Something brushes your hair back, rubbing your back. You furrow your eyebrows and crack your eyes open. You slowly remove yourself from your body pillow to see someone lying beside you. You rub your eyes, letting your vision adjust to the darkness of your room.

Glowing gold eyes gaze at you with mirth. The Aeon smiles at you and brushes your messy hair away from your face. You blink at Nanook sleepily before sitting up and stretching your arms in the air while yawning. Nanook props himself up with one arm, gazing at you fondly. You let your hands fall onto your lap, staring into the dark. “Should I wake up? Or should I go back to sleep?” Who knew that Nanook was very comfortable to snuggle against.

You plop beside Nanook, turning to face the Aeon. Nanook rests his head on the pillow and caresses your face, gently brushing his thumb against the apples of your cheeks. You place your hand over his and close your eyes, fighting back another yawn. You subconsciously scoot closer to the Aeon of Destruction, burying your face into the nook of his neck. Nanook wraps his muscular arms around your waist and covers both your bodies with the blanket.

“You’re going back to sleep?” Nanook asks, running his hands up and down your back.

You nod sleepily. “The bed is comfortable, and I’m snuggling with you. It’s hard to wake up when you’re so comfortable,” you reply.

You throw your arm over his shoulder and sigh with contentment. Nanook was (reluctantly) offered a room on the Astral Express, and as you can see, Nanook decided not to stay in his room. His room was at the end of the hallway of the Passenger Cabin, which was far from where your room is located. Nanook wasn’t too pleased about it but went along with it.

Now, every night, Nanook would sneak into your room while you were asleep just to be around you. No one knows about it, and Nanook doesn’t intend to let them know about it. Nanook would rather have them walk in on you two snuggling than him informing them about your night escapades. It’s not like you and Nanook were doing something sinful behind their backs. Nanook is just a clingy Aeon who has to be around you, or else he’ll feel like he’s going to die if you’re not near him.

Just when you’re about to fall asleep, the door to your bedroom slams open, startling you. You jolt up and look at the door to see March standing at the entrance with her hands on her hips. March steps into your room and flicks the light on. The light floods your room, blinding you and Nanook momentarily.

“Dammit, Caelus was right,” March curses.

"What do you talking about, March? Did you and Caelus have a bet over something again?" You ask, rubbing your eyes before pulling your legs to your chest.

Nanook raises his eyebrows at March, who's sulking. Nanook turns to look at you, propping himself up on his arms. When Nanook sits up, March lets out a strained gasp, pointing at you and Nanook in horror. You weren't sure why March was pointing and looking at the both of you in horror. March blinks rapidly, rubbing her eyes with the heel of her hands so hard she sees dots in her vision. March lets her hands fall to her side, trying to adjust her vision. March sighs in relief, pressing her hand against her chest.

"Whew! I thought Nanook was shirtless for a moment! It's a good thing Nanook wasn't shirtless! Or else I would've been assuming that...." March trails off, laughing sheepishly.

You raise your eyebrows at March. "Assume what, March?" You tilt your head to the side.

March clears her throat and rubs her neck with a sheepish smile. "Oh, nothing! A-Anyway! I think you two should get up now! Everyone is waiting for you two," says March.

She steps out of your room, ready to slide the door close. When you call out to her, March slides the door halfway closed and looks at you curiously as you're getting out of your bed. You straighten your clothes and walk over to the pink-haired girl, who peeks over your shoulders and narrows her eyes at the Aeon of Destruction. March quickly fixes her composure and smiles at you when you stop in front of her.

"What's up, [Y/N]?" March asks, propping her hands on her hips while leaning on one leg.

You rub your arm. "You never answered my question earlier," you say.

March stares at you blankly, her mouth agape. March tries to go through the conversations not long ago, trying to recall the question you asked her. March presses her lips into a thin line and smiles at you sheepishly.

"Can you repeat that question for me? I don't remember what you asked me," says March.

The bed behind you creaks, and footsteps get close to where you and March are standing. You turn to see Nanook, who stops behind you and grabs the door frame above you, gazing down at you and March curiously. Your face flushes at how close Nanook is standing to you. He's so close that you can feel his body heat radiating from his body. March stares at the Aeon blankly before turning to look at you.

"I was wondering if you and Caelus had a bet or something because you said something along the lines of 'dammit, Caelus was right,'" You reply, crossing your arms over your chest.

March's eyes light up, and she nods. "Ah, yes! That! Uh, well, it wasn't necessarily a bet! Caelus mentioned how he peeked into Nanook's bedroom only to see that it was empty. Caelus assumed that Nanook went to your bedroom overnight," March trails off, taking a quick look at the Aeon towering above both you and her.

You raise an eyebrow at the pink-haired girl before you. "I'm sensing a but after that sentence," you say.

March opened her mouth to reply but was cut off by chattering in the distance. You, March, and Nanook peek from your bedroom to see the trio approaching your bedroom. You sigh and close your eyes, resting your head on the door frame. You just want to go back to sleep, but your peaceful slumber is interrupted by March slamming your bedroom door open. Technically, you were already awake before March barged into your room, but you were about to go back to sleep!

Caelus's eyes land on you, and he smiles. "Good morning, [Y/N]! How was your sleep?" asks Caelus, stopping beside March.

You smile at the silver-haired man before covering your mouth and yawning. "I slept okay! It would be nice to go back to sleep, but you know March! She will do anything to prevent me from sleeping in," you joke.

Caelus, Dan Heng, and Mr. Yang chuckle in response. March huffs and crosses her arms over her chest, sticking her nose up in the air. Knowing March and the three men, you excused yourself to get ready for the day. Nanook pushes himself off the door frame and follows after you without sparing March, Dan Heng, Caelus, and Mr. Yang a glance. The tension between them was apparent, and the five of them decided not to say anything to each other.

Mr. Yang clears his throat. "Nanook, I believe you should give [Y/N] some privacy while they change and get ready. You can get ready in your room and meet the five of us at the Parlor Car," says Mr. Yang.

Nanook turns to look at the brown-haired man, crossing his muscular arms over his chest. The Aeon doesn't reply to Mr. Yang. Instead, he looks over in your direction as you're pulling clothes out from your closet. The sudden silence caused you to look at the door with curiosity. None of them say anything to each other. They all stand there in silence, looking anywhere but at each other, aside from Nanook, who's staring at you.

You clear your throat, smiling at the quintet. "You guys can wait for me in the Parlor Car! I'll be out as soon as possible, I promise," you say, walking toward the bathroom connected to your room.

Nanook hums aloud, grabbing your attention. "What if I want to keep you company while you're getting ready? I don't want you to be alone," Nanook says, approaching you.

Dan Heng lets out an exasperated sigh, crossing his arms over his chest and rolling his eyes at Nanook's comment. Dan Heng is no expert, but he has a feeling that Nanook is hoping to get a little intimate with you after they (he, Mr. Yang, March, and Caelus) leave your room to go to the Parlor Car. Ever since Nanook has decided to keep you and the others company during your journey across the universe, things have been tense.

Nanook has made it clear that you belong to him and only him. The Aeon of Destruction is very possessive of you, and it doesn't surprise anyone because, after all, Nanook is the one that brought you into their universe. Nanook stops before you and wraps his arms around your waist, pulling you to his chest and resting his chin on your head. He leans down and rests his head on your shoulders, peppering kisses on your neck.

"Are you two just going to stand there, or are you guys going to get ready? Sampo, Gepard, Luka, Luocha, Blade, and Jing Yuan are stopping by today," Dan Heng speaks up, narrowing his eyes at Nanook. "Let's not waste time."

Nanook slowly pulls away from you and turns to look at the visibly annoyed black-haired man. The two men stare at each other, not saying a word. You sigh and pat Nanook's arms before going to the bathroom to change. Once the bathroom door closes behind you, the quartet turns to look at one another. Nanook goes to your bed and begins organizing your bed. From fixing the pillowcases to the blankets, Nanook is distracting himself from the stares. He can feel four pairs of eyes staring holes into the back of his head as he organizes your bed.

"Is there anything I can help you with? If not, I believe you all can wait for me and [Y/N] in the Parlor Car," Nanook says, continuing to organize and straighten your bed.

Mr. Yang clears his throat, keeping his eyes trained on the Aeon of Destruction. "We wondered what drew you toward [Y/N]. You are the reason why they're in our universe, and there has to be a reason why they're here," says Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang was right. Nanook is the reason why you're in their universe currently. It wasn't like there was this magical portal that you stepped through, and it transported you to another dimension. Nanook fluffs your pillow and turns to look at the quartet before sitting on the edge of your bed.

"There's no explanation needed. I like [Y/N], and I want them to be with me. I can't stand being far from them. I wasn't pleased with the barrier between me and [Y/N], so I had to take it into my own hands and bring them into our world so they can be with me," Nanook replies nonchalantly, leaning back on his arms with a sigh.

Caelus purses his lips, tapping his fingers on his thighs while debating whether he should ask a particular question he has in mind or not. Seeing the Aeon of Destruction sitting on the edge of your bed after organizing your bed and fluffing your pillow was something Caelus never imagined he would witness. Nanook stares at Caelus as the silver-haired man continues to tap his fingers on his thighs, looking around the room to make sure he isn't staring at the Aeon mindlessly.

"We know you have these strong feelings toward [Y/N], and we were wondering what you would do if there were other people that take an interest in them," Caelus says slowly.

Now looking at the Aeon of Destruction, Caelus can't help but gulp with anxiousness as the white-haired Aeon leans forward and rests his elbow on his knees. Nanook knows there are other people who have taken an interest in you, and while it would bother him, he doesn't feel jealousy in the slightest. It may be because none of these men have tried to pull something with you. Other than giving you endearing nicknames, Nanook knows he is still at an advantage compared to the other men who have feelings for you. Although this one person, in particular, is a little bit too comfortable around you.

Sampo Koski, a merchant from the underworld on Jarilo-VI. The indigo-haired man is too bold for Nanook's liking, and being in the same room as someone bold enough to touch you is something Nanook is not looking forward to dealing with. But since Nanook is with you in person, he doesn't have to worry about it as much as he would when he wasn't physically present.

Nanook chuckles. "I have nothing to worry about. While I don't mind sharing, I believe this is the only time I won't be sharing," Nanook says.

Dan Heng scoffs, crossing his arms over his chest. "And what if [Y/N]'s not interested in dating the Aeon of Destruction?" asks Dan Heng.

Nanook smirks, sizing Dan Heng up. If you weren't interested, you would've expressed it a while ago. If you weren't interested, you would've demanded the Aeon of Destruction to return you to your world. But you have yet to do any of those things. You snuggled against him and let him devour your lips when the two of you saw each other in your dreams. Heck, you woke up beside him on your bed not long ago! If you weren't interested, would you be doing any of these things with Nanook?

"If they're not interested, then they're not interested. I'm not going to force them into something they don't want to be a part of," Nanook says, looking over at the closed bathroom door. "If [Y/N] wasn't interested, then why would they be okay with waking up next to me? Wouldn't they kick me out of their room a long time ago?"

March purses her lips and looks at the three men beside her. None of them answer Nanook's question and continue to stare at the white-haired Aeon. The brown-haired man sighs, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Let's talk about this later. The Astral Express is expecting visitors very soon, and we must prepare for their presence. Let's not act up in front of our guests," Mr. Yang says, exiting your bedroom. Mr. Yang stops in his tracks and turns to look at Nanook, who's watching them blankly. "You should get ready as well. We want you to look presentable in front of the General of the Xianzhou Luofu and the Captain of the Silvermane Guard."

Nanook doesn't reply. Mr. Yang, March, Dan Heng, and Caelus walks away from your bedroom and toward the Parlor Car. Nanook lets out an exasperated sigh, gets up from your bed, and slides the door close. Once the door closes, the door to your bathroom opens, and you step out. You smile at Nanook, who sighs in relief and makes his way toward you. Nanook throws his arms over your shoulders, pulling you against his chest before kissing the top of your head. You poke Nanook's chest to grab his attention. Nanook peeks down at you while you stare at the towering Aeon.

"Are you going to change your clothes? Jing Yuan, Blade, Luocha, Sampo, Luka, and Gepard are going to be at the Astral Express soon," you say.

Nanook continues to stare at you, slowly pushing you away from him while still holding onto your hand. You look breathtaking, and Nanook can't help but feel envious. He's not envious of you. He's envious that other men will see you. You're dressed for the occasion, and Nanook doesn't want other men to ogle you like a piece of steak.

"You look beautiful, little one," Nanook murmurs, twirling you into his arms.

You giggle and wrap your arms around his waist, standing on the tip of your toes and planting a kiss on his jawlines. Nanook smiles and kisses your forehead, rubbing the small of your back.

You snuggle against Nanook, rubbing your thumb against the fabric of Nanook's shirt. "Thank you. And you, Mister Aeon, need to get dressed and ready!" You say, poking him in the chest with a teasing smile.

Nanook lets out a fake frustrated sigh, chewing on his bottom lip. Does he have to get ready and meet the other men that have feelings for you? Nanook refuses to share you with other men. Unless they can prove that they can protect you, make you happy, and keep you safe from harm, then he will reconsider. But for now, after what had happened, Nanook doesn't think he can trust the nine men that have evident feelings for you.

You look at Nanook pleadingly, telling him to get ready. Nanook sighs and finally gives in. You and Nanook part ways at your door— you walk to the Parlor Car while Nanook goes to his room to get ready. You want to tag along with Nanook, but knowing Sampo, the indigo-haired man will track you down if he doesn't see you. You step into the Parlor Car to see the ten people waiting for your arrival.

"Gumdrop! It's good to see you again!" Sampo sobs, getting up from his seat and sprinting in your direction.

You smile at Sampo, waving at the indigo-haired man as he comes at you at rapid speed. "Hi, Sampo! It's good to see you again! How's business going—" Your sentences are cut off when the tall man tackles you into a tight hug before spinning you around.

Caelus quickly gets up from his seat and runs to where you and Sampo are standing. Caelus places his hand on Sampo's shoulders, laughing nervously while giving you an apologetic smile. Sampo puts you down after a few minutes, rubbing his neck with a cat-like smile.

Caelus clears his throat. "I know you're excited to see [Y/N] again, but please be careful. You could knock them off their feet with one swift motion," Caelus scolds the merchant.

Sampo snorts. "I think you mean ‘sweep them off their feet’! I'm pretty good at doing that," Sampo boasts, winking in your direction.

You, Sampo, and Caelus walk over to where the others are sitting. Blade, Luocha, Luka, Gepard, and Jing Yuan wave at you when you arrive at where they're sitting. You sit at an empty chair beside March and wave back at them, pulling in your seat. You made sure to save a seat for Nanook, but you weren't sure if Nanook planned on staying the entire time. Nanook wasn’t fond of being around the other nine men, and the nine men felt the same way.

"You know, Sampo, you're quite bold when it comes to [Y/N]," Luka comments, leaning back in his seat while gazing at you and Sampo with amusement.

There's no denying that out of all nine men sitting at the same table, Sampo is the only person who's bold enough to show his affection toward you. Sampo gives you a pet name and the public display of affection he shows toward you when he sees you. The man isn't afraid to express his feelings toward you, and the others weren't sure if you were entertaining Sampo by letting him be shameless about his feelings for you or if you feel the same way.

You yawn and rest your head on the top rail of the chair and close your eyes. You woke up way too soon, and now it's starting to catch up to you despite you waking up not long ago. Maybe now is the best time to ask Himeko to make you one of her coffee combinations to wake you up. The stronger, the better; you're not much of a coffee person.

"Did you not get enough sleep last night?" Gepard asks, resting his arm on the table while gazing at you worriedly.

You open your eyes, yawn into the palm of your hands. "Not really. Plus, I woke up a little earlier before March could slam the door open to wake me up," you reply, looking over at the blond man sitting across from you.

"You look lovely today. Is there an occasion?" Jing Yuan asks, smiling at you,

Heat rushes to your face at Jing Yuan's sudden compliment. You clear your throat, smiling shyly at the General of the Xianzhou Luofu. You rub your neck, sitting up in your seat, and not going to lie, you did dress to impress. But the question is: who are you dressing up for, and who are you trying to impress exactly?

You reply, "I thought it'd be nice to dress a little differently today. I sort of assumed once everyone arrives, we're going to stop by somewhere for breakfast."

Blade laughs aloud, crossing his arms over his chest. "Oh, did you now? I thought you prettied yourself up for a certain someone," Blade says, quirking an eyebrow at you.

Aeons. The way Blade is staring at you with his red eyes sends chills down your spine. You can't help but feel like Blade has something against you. Well, maybe not that, but there's this unspoken tension between you and Blade. You weren't sure if it was because of the first impression not long ago or if it was because Nanook favors you. Whatever the answer and reason is, you don't want to feel tense around the dark-haired man.

Luocha glares at Blade from the other side of Jing Yuan before looking at you with a small smile. "Don't mind him, [Y/N]. Kafka chewed him out the other day. He won't say why, but it has something to do with his fellow Stellaron Hunter," says Luocha, crossing his arms over his chest.

Ah, right. Kafka. How could you forget about the stunning woman? You smile at Luocha and look away briefly with a sigh. The mood quickly died down because of the tension between you and Blade. You lean in your seat, looking elsewhere. Maybe you're just sensitive today because of your lack of sleep. Arms cage you into your seat as someone looms over your figure.

"I know I said this already, but you look beautiful today, little one," Nanook whispers, leaning in to kiss your cheeks.

You turn to look at Nanook, whose face is a few centimeters from yours. You smile at the Aeon shyly and pat the spot beside you. Before pulling the seat out beside you, Nanook glances at the other occupants from the corner of his eyes before kissing your forehead. Now sitting beside you, Nanook grabs your seat and pulls you to sit closer to him. He then drapes his arms over your shoulders, leaning back in his seat and gazing at the nine men (and March) with scrutiny.

Jing Yuan clears his throat, nodding at the Aeon of Destruction. "Nanook, it's a pleasure to meet you in person," Jing Yuan says, breaking the silence that once loomed over everyone in the Parlor Car.

Nanook grunts, nodding to the General of the Xianzhou Luofu. The nine men stare at Nanook, their gaze subconsciously darting to where Nanook has his arms draping over your shoulders. You lean against the Aeon, closing your eyes. Seeing how.... close... you are to the Aeon of Destruction left a bad taste in the nine men's mouths. Are you and Nanook possibly together by any chance?

"So, you and [Y/N] seem close! Have you two always been this close with one another since [Y/N]'s arrival to our universe?" Luocha asks, gesturing between you and Nanook.

March snorts, shaking her head. March wondered why these men were asking the questions they knew the answers to. Nanook communicated with you through your dreams. Nanook is the reason why you're in their universe at this very moment. While you are unconscious, the first being you see when out cold is Nanook. Nanook this, Nanook that. March lets out an exasperated sigh, shaking her head while slapping her forehead lightly.

"You guys are so obvious that it's painful to watch!" March exclaims. "I'm starting to get secondhand embarrassment," March sulks.

The men look away from March, their cheeks flushing to a bright red. Nanook narrows his eyes at the men sitting before you and him, shaking his head. Nanook runs his fingers through your hair, relishing the fact that he can touch you while the others can't. The thought almost brought a smile to his face.

Nanook grabs you by your chin, tilts your head up. You open your eyes and look into Nanook's golden eyes as he stares into yours. Nanook strokes your chin with his thumb, a small smile appearing. You can feel the gaze burning holes into your body as Nanook continues to stroke your chin.

Gepard clears his throat. "Pardon my interruption, but are you two dating by any chance?" Gepard asks.

You can hear a slight strain in his voice when he asks that question. Nanook chuckles and turns to look at the silently fuming men before him, shaking his head. Nanook leans in his seat, letting his hand fall on your shoulders. Nanook nudges you to answer Gepard's question, making you jolt. You look at the men like a deer caught in headlights, tucking your hair behind your ears shyly.

You swallow the lump in your throat and shake your head. "Uh, no, we're not dating," you reply.

Luka scoffs. "Yet," says Luka. He turns to Gepard and Sampo, muttering, "That bastard claimed [Y/N] before any of us got to!"

"Anyway! What are we going to have for breakfast? Are we going to dine on the Astral Express, or are we going somewhere to have breakfast?" You ask.

Nanook chuckles beside you and rubs your arm. The nine men's eyes zeroed in on Nanook's hands, watching the Aeon display affection in front of them. The audacity. How dare the Aeon of Destruction get to show you public affection when they can't do it? Nanook has known you for as long as the nine men have, yet here he is, touching you as if you two are couples. None of the men reply, only continuing to look at Nanook's hands.

You sigh, rubbing your throbbing temples and closing your eyes. "I'm assuming we'll be having breakfast on the Astral Express then!" You say.

March laughs nervously, nodding in response. "Yep! It looks like it! Hey, [Y/N]! Do you want to get coffee with me and Himeko? You did wake up before I could enter your room!" March says, getting up from her seat.

You nod wordlessly, getting up from your seat. The men look at you and March curiously as you two get begin walking off. Before you and March can leave the Parlor Car, Pom-Pom waddles into the Parlor Car. Pom-Pom's eyes light up when he sees you before waddling toward you as fast as he possibly can.

"[Y/N]! My favorite passenger! How have you been?" Pom-Pom asks, bouncing with excitement.

You smile at Pom-Pom and pat the train conductor's head. "It's good to see you too, Pom-Pom! I've been well! How have you been, conductor?"

You, Pom-Pom, and March walk to the Passenger Cabin together, leaving the ten men alone in the Parlor Car. The tension is at an all-time high as the ten men look around the Parlor Car, trying to avoid making eye contact with each other. Who knows what will happen between these men without you and March present other than awkward stares and thick tension? Blade crosses his arms over his chest before looking at Nanook while leaning back in his seat. Bade lets out an amused hum, the corner of his lips curving up into an amused smile.

"So, Nanook, Aeon of Destruction, care to explain how a feeble mortal such as [Y/N] captured your attention?" asks Blade. "How do you become aware of their presence through a computer screen?"

Nanook stares at Blade, not saying a word. Just when the ten men didn't think the tension could get worse, it was just even more tense after Blade's question.

Jing Yuan clears his throat, lifts his teacup to his lips, and sips. "I believe now is not a good time to interrogate the Aeon of Destruction, Blade," says Jing Yuan.

Caelus buries his face into his hands, groaning quietly. "[Y/N] and March had the worst timing in getting coffee from Himeko," mutters Caelus, peeking between his fingers.

After a few minutes of sitting in tense, awkward silence, the door of the Parlor Carbin opens, revealing you, Himeko, March, and Pom-Pom with coffee in your hands. Pom-Pom is latching to your side while you're sipping from the glass mug, commenting something to Himeko and March, making the two ladies burst out laughing. You sit beside Nanook while Himeko and March take their seats around the table.

Himeko leans in her seat, crossing her right leg over the other leg, stirring her coffee. "What did you gentlemen chat about while we were gone?" asks Himeko, tapping the spoon on the rim of the cup before sipping her coffee.

Sampo clears his throat, looking around at the others, whose looking around the Parlor Car. Sampo props his arms on the table, smiling at the redhead. "Oh, nothing interesting! We all sat in silence and.... enjoyed each other's presence," Sampo says, giving you, Himeko, March, and Pom-Pom a fake smile.

"Oh? Is that so? How interesting," Pom-Pom says. "While you all enjoy your breakfast, I have duties to tend to as the conductor of the Astral Express," Pom-Pom says, walking off before waving you all goodbye.

Once Pom-Pom has left the Parlor Car, the room is plunged into the same awkward silence. You quickly excuse yourself to go to the Phonograph to find music that will fit the setting. Plus, you wanted to find a way to escape the awkward tension between the men while sipping your coffee in peace. While you're flipping through the options, Gepard approaches you and taps your shoulders to grab your attention. You look up from the Phonograph and turn to the Captian of the Silvermane Guards.

You smile at the blond. "Hey, Gepard! Anything I can help you with?"

Gepard clears his throat, his cheeks dusting pink. "I was wondering how you're doing. I know I asked you about it earlier, but genuinely, how do you feel physically and mentally?" Gepard asks, leaning against the wall beside the Phonograph.

You pause and prop one hand on your hip while leaning on your left leg. "Mentally, I'm doing well! Physically, I'm also well. However, I do get phantom pain sometimes. A random spot on my body would hurt all of a sudden, and it would stop as if it never happened," you reply.

"Have you spoken to Luocha about it? As much as I would love to help you, it's out of my field of work," Gepard says, sighing softly.

You smile at the blond mand and shake your head. After what happened, you haven't seen Luocha, Jing Yuan, Blade, Gepard, Sampo, and Luka since you regained consciousness. Everyone had business to tend to back on Jarilo-VI and the Xianzhou Luofu, and the Astral Express docked at the Herta Express for the time being until you have healed.

That meant you weren't allowed to leave the Astral Express for an amount of time, but it didn't mean you weren't allowed to roam the Astral Express and Herta Space Station freely. Of course, you did need to have someone with you at all times. Since Nanook has decided to be present around you and your traveling companions, everyone has decided to keep their eyes on the Aeon of Destruction. The Aeon of Destruction refuses to leave your side. It's like he's attached to your hips at all times, aside from when you're using the bathroom or taking a shower.

"I heard my name being mentioned in this area, so I had to come and see what the gossip was about," Luocha jokes, stopping before you and Gepard with Luka by his side. Luocha looks at you and smiles. "I heard you mentioned phantom pain?"

You sigh, nodding. "Yes, I had phantom pain every now and then. It's not as often, which I'm grateful for, but it hurts when I do get them. Almost like these injuries were fresh," you answer.

Luka frowns and gazes at you from head to toe. What Blade said earlier, he wasn't wrong, how you're prettied up and not dressing like how you usually would. Luka doesn't think Blade meant it negatively because you do look beautiful. You look breathtaking and effortlessly beautiful. There are faint scars on your body, but according to Luocha, the scars should go away after two years. This does sound like a while from now, but the scars on your body don't make you any less beautiful than you already are.

"I thought phantom pain was only for those who lost a limb," Luka comments, raising his prosthetic arm and waving it around.

You nod. "It is, but every time I think back to that day, I can still feel the knives slicing my skin like a paper shredder," you reply, shuddering.

You turn to the Phonograph and select something that best fits the atmosphere. You take a sip of your coffee and gesture for the three men to follow you back to the table where the others are waiting for your return. Gepard, Luka, and Luocha were genuinely shocked to see that Nanook didn't follow you to the Phonograph. After all, the Aeon of Destruction is very attached to you, and if he were to be far away from you for a short time, Nanook would become restless.

You place your coffee on the table and sit beside Nanook. Nanook automatically wraps his arms around your waist, pulling you close to him. Himeko and March snicker behind their hands while you rest your head on Nanook's shoulders. Blade stares at you and Nanook, tapping his fingers on the table.

"I'm having a hard time believing you two aren't a couple," Blade comments, leaning back in his seat.

You ignore Blade's comment and point at the servers bringing food out for everyone to eat. "Oh, look! Breakfast is finally here," you say.

You have no idea what time it is, but the morning felt like it was being dragged out, and it was. The tension, the stares, the whispers, and the snide comments made it feel like time was slowing down. It was almost excruciating, to say the least. While cutting and chewing on your pancake, you notice Mr. Yang staring at his phone with intensity. Staring is an understatement. The man was glaring at his phone.

You clear your throat to grab the older man's attention, only for it to go unheard. "Mr. Yang, what's wrong?" You whisper loudly among the quiet chatter.

Mr. Yang continues to stare at his phone, his eyebrows furrowing with focus and confusion. You turn to look at Dan Heng, whose looking at you quizzically. You gesture to the brown-haired man. Dan Heng nods, turns to Mr. Yang, and taps on his arms to grab the man's attention.

Dan Heng clears his throat. "Mr. Yang, [Y/N] has something to ask you," says Dan Heng, pointing over in your direction.

Mr. Yang looks up, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "Yes, [Y/N]? Is there something you need?" asks Mr. Yang.

You rest your arm on the table, resting your chin in the palm of your hand. "You were staring at your phone for so long that it made me wonder what you're doing over there that's causing you to glare at the screen like that," you say.

Mr. Yang straightens up in his seat, clearing his throat. Caelus peeks over at Mr. Yang's phone, but the older man sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose. "I was trying to figure out how to change my icon," replies Mr. Yang.

Oh, right. You nearly forgot about how Mr. Yang doesn't know how to change his profile picture. It was cute and a little bit funny, but in an endearing way. You cracked a smile and stood up, walking over to the older man. You hold your hand out, gesturing for him to give you his phone. Mr. Yang hands you his phone, and you kneel beside his chair to show him how to change his icon to whatever picture he desires.

Sampo leans over to Gepard and Luka, whispering, "Does he actually not know how to change his profile picture? How old is Mr. Yang again?"

Gepard shrugs. "I don't think asking how old someone is is appropriate, Sampo. Besides, I don't blame Mr. Yang for not knowing how to change the icon. Sometimes it can be confusing, and the options are barely visible," Gepard mutters.

"And there you have it! A new icon! Do you want me to show you how to do it again, just in case?" You ask, turning to look at the brown-haired man.

Mr. Yang doesn't reply. Instead, he's staring at his phone and then looks at you. You can't put your finger on it, but his expression was hard to read. Heat rushes to your face, and you clear your throat, poking the man lightly. Mr. Yang blinks and looks at his phone, pursing his lips while gazing at his phone. You're guessing that's a yes. You snort and begin showing Mr. Yang step-by-step how you changed his icon picture to the one he wanted. According to Mr. Yang, Caelus didn't know how to change the icon. You turn to look at Caelus, who smiles at you sheepishly.

"Well, now your profile picture has been changed! If you need any more assistance with customizing anything, I'm your go-to person!" You say, propping your hands on your hips with a proud smile.

Luka looks at you curiously. "How do you know so much about customizing things when you've been in our world for less than three months?" Luka asks.

You rub the back of your neck. You're a total slut for all things customization. From cars to avatars in a video game to social media profiles and custom computer backgrounds. If you cannot customize things to your liking, you're not interested in whatever the game and product is trying to sell.

"I'm really into customizing things!" You reply. “Plus, it’s easy to change icon pictures.”

Jing Yuan leans to Luocha, tapping him on the arm subtly. "Is it just me, or is Mr. Yang looking at [Y/N] like they hung the stars and the moon in the sky?" Jing Yuan murmurs, gesturing over to the brunette.

Luocha chuckles, sipping his drink. "I'm quite certain that [Y/N] is the star that's hanging in the sky. And might I add the brightest star in the sky?" Luocha murmurs.

From the corner of Jing Yuan's eyes, you're cheering and clapping your hands when you have the older man change his icon to see if he's able to remember what you showed him. Everyone around you chuckles, watching you throw your arms around Mr. Yang's shoulders and patting his head happily. Mr. Yang's cheeks are almost as red as Himeko's hair as he pats your head while you congratulate the man for being able to change his icon.

It's silly, but you're glad Mr. Yang was able to change his icon without having to ask for assistance. Maybe if he needs help with customizing his phone background, you'd be happy to help him! After all, you're a slut for customization. Before you returned to your seat beside Nanook, you pat Mr. Yang's head again with a wide smile.

"I'm proud of you, Mr. Yang! You did good!" You say before sitting beside Nanook, resting your head on the Aeon's shoulders.

You assumed that after breakfast, everyone would relax on the Astral Express and maybe take a nap. But you were wrong because, to your surprise, the Astral Express stopped at the Xianzhou Luofu. Everyone got off the Astral Express and began roaming around the Xianzhou Luofu in groups, chatting and catching up with what's been happening. You lean against the railing and stare at the bustling crowd below.

You close your eyes, sighing. As much as you love the Astral Express, traversing through space, and visiting other fleets and planets in the universe, you miss being in a place you can call home. A place where you can explore and roam around without having to worry about missing the Astral Express and having to go from planet to planet, solving problems and dealing with dangerous situations.

Caelus pokes your cheek, pulling you out of your thoughts. "What's on your mind? You seem distracted," Caelus murmurs, leaning on the railing beside you while looking at you curiously.

You turn to Caelus, huffing softly. "I'm thinking about how I'll never be able to find a secure place to live in this world. How I'll forever be traversing through space, searching for my destiny, and never getting married and having kids," you sigh dramatically.

"Is that a bad thing? Also, what's wrong with traversing through space? I thought you enjoyed it?" March interjects, popping up beside you with a pout.

You hum thoughtfully, leaning against the railing while contemplating. You do enjoy traversing through space on the Astral Express with your traveling companions. How can you not enjoy it when you get to see the stars in the universe? You get to visit many places you've never thought to have existed in your traveling companion's universe, but they exist and intrigue you.

You sulk. "Don't get me wrong! I love the life I have on the Astral Express! But do you see those stars in the universe? They're free and just existing in space!" You say,

Dan Heng blinks at you. "You're kind of doing the same thing, if you think about it," Dan Heng comments.

Nanook cages you against the railing, his chest pressing against your back as he rests his chin on your head. You turn around in Nanook's arms and wrap your arms around his waist, closing your eyes, yawning. Despite not dating Nanook, you can't help but feel very attached to the Aeon of Destruction.

While you're distracted with Nanook, you don't notice the look the other nine men are giving you and Nanook. Sensing the awkwardness and emerging tension, March runs off to fetch Diting. You hear a soft bark, making you open your eyes to see what is barking. March runs toward you with Diting in her arms, smiling from ear to ear.

"I don't think you've met this little guy before! [Y/N], meet Diting!" March says, holding Diting up to your face,

You and Diting stare at one another for a moment. You reach up and pet Diting, who barks happily in response. You squeal softly and take Diting from March's hands, holding the adorable bionic dog up to your face. You put Diting down and begin running off while the small bionic dog chases after you while barking happily. Caelus clears his throat, takes his phone from his pocket, and snaps a quick picture of you running with Diting after your tail.

Satisfied with how the picture turned out, Caelus puts his phone away and turns to talk to Dan Heng, only to see the others were doing the same thing he was doing prior. Caelus looks at Nanook, who leans against the railing of the Xianzhou Luofu, smiling at the sight of you running and laughing while Diting chases after you.

March snorts, shaking her head. "Who knew a star could enchant so many people," March hums, quickly taking a picture of you and Diting, making a mental note to herself to give you the picture when you all return to the Astral Express.

So, Tears of the Kingdom didn't exactly hit the mark in the story department. I'm glad I'm not alone as I usually am in these cases.

So, after some consideration, I decided to try rewriting the story right after I finished it a whole 200 hours after

I already did this exact same thing with Pokemon Sword and Shield, but just plotted the whole thing out and never wrote any of it because I figured no one reads my shit lol so I'm just going to do the same here, plot out what I feel would have been better and probably never write it... Unless you guys really like it and give me some support/motivation, seriously a comment goes a long way.

Anyways, I'm also writing a origin story for Ganon since he's bae a really unique Ganon but he was watered down to an OOT clone, lame 😒

! Major Spoilers for Tears of the Kingdom !

You have been warned.

So, the beginning of the game isnt going to start inside Hyrule castle. Instead, this is roughly five years after BOTW and Zelda and Link are traveling around on yet another job Zelda is fixated on. She asks Link to join her in exploring Hyrule to find a suitable place for a school.

The Calamity just wasn't a thing in totk and that doesn't make any sense if it was an event that just happened. I wanted it to at least be mentioned and be a major thing affecting Hyrule even now, years later.

After a leisure stroll to some of the more major and centralized locations, Zelda settles on Hateno, but she also wants to find a good teacher. Someone who knows about Hyrule's history, is heavily involved in their present affairs, and will be in their future events 🤔💭😮

A Sheikah!

So, Zelda asks you to find someone from Karakiko village who would fit the bill. A short tutorial trip later and now everything is in order.

Zelda then gives Link a few other tasks:

Find a carpenter to build the school

Travel out to Lurelin Village to become more acquainted with the growing sea village

And to get some food for a mysterious request.

Link, of course, doesn't have to do the top two, but the last one is a main mission. After getting 10 apples, some honey and making a meal, Link returns to Zelda's home and she explains what the food was for.

Now that things are settling down, I think it's time we repair the castle. I didn't want to prioritize it in case anyone needed assistance, but things seem to be calm enough for us to start planning the castle's rebuilding. I even found the perfect companion to carry all our things!

Btw does anyone else remember a trailer where Link and Zelda had a Dondon with them? Like what tf happened to that? 😭

Anyways, this could also be a little romantic moment for Link and Zelda. I personally don't like Zelink in this game, but for those who do, something could be here, a little spark if you will.

The pair rests for the day and plan to head out right when the sun comes out. Link and Zelda make their way to the castle and try and assess the damage and what work would need to be done. In doing so, Zelda finds a strange hole that seems to connect somewhere. Her curiosity gets the better of her and she slips down to check it out, with no way out, Link joins her in an attempt to help them escape.

They travel down the stairs and find the grave of Hyrule's first King and wonder what the slab means by the castle acting as a seal.

Now here is where I would put the beginning of the game. Everything can happen like it does with no changes. This includes the Great Sky island as well.

So, once Link finds a way back to the surface, he sees that things are different than what he remembers. The strange stones falling from the sky are a sight for sure. He heads over to the nearest stable and the owner explains what's going on.

I know it's been a while, but this stuff should be fresh in all our minds. Well, I still don't see how I'm even used to it. The Upheaval--as those researchers call it--was some strange event that occured and lifted Hyrule Castle straight into the sky and made those islands appear as well. I don't know much more than that, but those researchers set up a temporary base camp near the castle, they're the ones who would know more than I do.

The Upheaval just seems to have been an event that no one cares about. They're like "lol yeah that happened, but you wanna hear about Pony Points!??!!"

Link, informed of what's going on, makes his way to find out more and travels to the base camp. There, everyone is still shook that he's alive and everything that happened. He meets up with Purah and she explains her and Robbie discovered some strange entries and features in the Sheikah slate. As a result, with how much it was heavily modified, they decided to rename it to the Sheikah Pad. Yes, I'm not a fan of the name Purah Pad.

This strange text seems to have just appeared here. I can't read it, but there's a man who can possibly decipher it. Too bad I've been busy trying to go and ask for his help.

Why not let me do it? <

Of course I thought of you, but both you and Zelda were missing. I was more concerned with keeping that on a need to know basis.

Zelda is missing? <

Yeah, you both just disappeared and since you were heading to the castle, we came here to see if you would return. Anyways, now that you're back, it would be a really big help if you could take this to Kakariko Village. There's a man named Tauro there who could probably figure out what any of this means.

Then, The Thunderhead Isles quest gets placed here like normal. The four corners of Hyrule aren't affected by anything yet, no Blizzard Rito village, infected Gorons, Mucked Zora's domain or Sand Shrouded Gerudo Desert. I'll explain why later.

Link is then introduced to Mineru, the sage of spirit, who introduces him to the Tears ('cause secret stones is a kind of dumb name with the game being called Tears of the Kingdom) and the power they hold when given to a sage. She then goes on to explain her history to Link and that they man they met was most likely Ganondorf, the Demon King.

In my time, me and five other sages attempted to defeat him... But he was too strong and easily lay waste to us. However, the sage of Light devised a plan and you are at the center of that plan. Together with the Master Sword and the Sages power, we should be able to finally defeat the Demon King!

Mineru gives Link the task of finding the other Sages, that she will be right by his side if he needs any guidance.

I'm changing when you get Mineru because the "true ending" of the game makes it like I'm supposed to care Mineru moves on. Like, I just met her and have little to no attachment. She's no Navi, Midna, Tatal, Spirit Zelda, Ezlo, Lineback, or King of Red Lions. They needed to give her more significance in the plot if they wanted me to care about her.

She does have something she needs him to do, but that can wait. She explains the different races of the Sages and tells him to find someone with great prowess within those races.

It's clear who Link needs to look for.

I wanna make a small note here. I honestly want to make the gameplay reliant in a certain order, for ex. doing Gorondia would be much easier if you already have Sidon, Gerudo Desert and The Lightening Temple would be easier with Tulin. Just so their near useless abilities could have more use. 'Cause we all know Tulin is useless unless you're in the air. I would have just liked it if the puzzles were more complicated and were harder without a certain sage there to make it 100x easier.

Link returns to Purah and details what he learned to her.

Well that couldn't have come at a worse time.

What do you mean? <

I mean, everywhere is experiencing mass events and it seemed to come straight out of nowhere. I don't know if you'll be able to get their help while these strange phenomenons are going on. Maybe if you help them first, we can go forward with this plan after.

So, in no particular order, Link sets out to help the four corners of Hyrule.

Now, I'm going to pause here and talk about the game progression for a moment. As much as I love the depths, it serves no purpose other than to hide Ganon away. Josha and her quests can all be sequence broken to hell considering I found every place she wanted me to go to years before she told me about them, and I even ignored the "Master Koga" quest and found Ganon entirely by accident (I'll never forget that btw, it was too funny). So, I wasn't sure what to do with it. I understand it's there so the story doesn't seem to pop out of nowhere; but with the way it is, it just seem poorly added to be sure the players can actually find Ganon if they didn't jump inside the Hyrule Castle Chasm like my crackhead ass did.

I really figured to have the depths give us more backstory on Ganon. My original original idea actually involved us playing three different stories (Link- the Main one, Zelda- the adjacent one, and Ganon- the opposite one) so if they're not gonna give us Ganon as something more than just the big bad villain guy, then this is the best I can think to add. The depths would serve as a way for you to learn more about the world Ganon lived in as there doesn't seem to be any Gerudo Statues so I could imagine Hyrule was like "ya'll hoes are evil. Gerudo who?" And that might have sent Ganon into a frenzy. Also, I'll add something at the bottom about Zelda's part. Back to the main story 👋

Link is successful in awakening the sages and getting them on board to defeat Ganon; but they're missing two. Mineru did say there were five including herself, but they only make up four.

This is what I needed your help with, Link. I'm a spirit and would serve you no good in this state. However, I was developing a body that I can control even in this form I'm in. Please, you have to find where the Construct Factory is and find my invention. This way, I can fight along side you all.

Note, I think Mineru's construct body is actual 🗑. I really only use it to break ore deposits and to reach crap that's too high. She's just too clunky and slow to be functional, so I thought of this instead. You would still collect each part (however you wanted too. Either one after each sage or all at once after all the sages) and these parts attach to Link. Her legs would allow Link to fall without damage (ik she can do that already, but you can't really fall with her. She just slides until a safe distance off the ground) and her arms would act as a power bracelet replacement allowing him to lift much heavier things he normally couldn't. What heavier things you ask, idk, maybe the devs should have the gimmick of the game actually apart of the gameplay instead of just in the open world.

Link descends in the depths and manages to find the place Mineru kept a secret from Ganon. Collecting the final sage.

They were still nowhere close to defeating him as the Light Sage was nowhere to be found and the Master Sword was still missing.

From high in the sky, a roar shook the earth forcing them look at the source. No matter how far away they were the sad feeling washed over Link as he stared into the sky seeing the strangely colored dragon.

A overwhelming feeling overcame him and before his very eyes he saw tears fall from the sky. Why was the dragon crying? Were those tears for the struggling Kingdom? There was only one way to find out.

For the Geoglyphs, I would just rewrite them entirely, half of them felt useless to get and like they didn't add anything I'm looking at you tea party. One of my main issues was Ganon saying Rauru was arrogant but like, we haven't seen that at all sooo... Anyways, if anyone wants to see how I would rewrite them, feel free to comment or reblog and write your own rewrites, I'd love to see them.

Link manages to find all the Geoglyphs and sees all the hardship Zelda had to face on her own. He gets one hint though and that's the lost woods.

That part would be the exact same, and lead to the Great Deku Tree telling you where the Master sword is.

In finding a way up to the light dragon, he discovers the Master sword and pulls it out. As Link does so, the dragon writhes in pain fighting against the feeling of the sword being removed. Though, soon, it calms and Link pulls out the sword releasing one final tear from the dragon.

You must protect them all!

Now, it's just to find where Ganon is. He's been hiding away this entire time, where was he?

You all talked about something called the Calamity?

Yes, I can't be sure, but it seems the man you all refer to is the same man born as our King years ago.

Strange that he has been reborn once already, but the form I know him is different than the one you all battled. If that's so, it's safe to assume he still resides in the place where he was sealed, only disturbed by the Calamity I would assume.

Mineru's assumptions seemed to be their only lead, so with everything together, Link travels into the Hyrule Castle Chasm and finds himself in the heart of the gloom.

At this point, the ending can play the exact same. Now, at least to me, the ending feels much more satisfying now that we're led into a path that allows us to feel strongly towards defeating Ganon cuz for me, totk didn't give a good enough reason--or a reason at all--for me to kill Ganon.

~Fin~

So, here's my final revisions to improve everything.

Rauru is a very strange character. He's the equivalent of a God and yet doesn't explain why he and his sister just drop to earth and take the throne. He's "arrogant" despite no scene of that ever being present and he does seem to be hiding something but the game cuts off before we can explore that. I think Rauru and Sonia shouldn't have been romantic lovers, but simply married for political gain. It makes their strangely forced romantic interactions make more sense (and come on political marriage was common in those times)

Raru should have been the "gray area" good guy. Ignoring Zelda when she tries to bring up legitimate concerns, dismissing Sonia when he feels there's nothing more to talk about and thinking his way is the best way to handle things. I don't mean for him to be a giant asshole, but he could simply not want to talk about things "until later" and later means it probably won't happen ever. That way Rauru could have the plot point that Ganon feels Rauru's laid-back mentality isn't how a king--or God--should act. So when push comes to shove, Ganon chose to shove. Exposing Rauru and his folly. This would make him less of an idiotic ruler who seems to have little to no urgency about an event he was told will happen.

Ganon had soooo much missed potential. Not only did we miss the chance to have him as an ally/anti-hero, but we missed the chance to get real backstory over how Ganon came to be how he is. I don't think the excuse of "he has evil in his heart" can work with a person who called someone arrogant. Ganon clearly has idealism and not knowing where it comes from kind of sucks. Also, he just was chilling in a hole when he could have come out and tried to kill me any time Misko distracted me with a bottle. Just sayin' 🤷

He just needed some characterization somewhere in the game and since the depths have the different tunics, maybe Ganon's history is preserved down there as well

As for Zelda, I have no idea why she just isn't being more assertive with mentioning that maybe, just maybe Calamity Ganon is related to the same man she says has evil in his heart. There's no need to "keep him close" because it's canon that he's evil, Zelda already knows Rauru. Listen to her start planning already 👏👏

Alongside this, her "sacrifice" held no impact because I 1. Already found out she was the light dragon way before I even did the Geoglyphs, and 2. Stopped caring when I found out ItS iRrEveRsIbLe. I guess Sonia and Rauru missed that one. Zelda just needed to keep the matured tone she had from the end of BOTW

To end things, let me say this rewrite is not saying the game is horrible. Totk is actually a favorite of mine, but it's my favorite because of what I can obviously see is there, but isn't reaching for one reason or another. This game's story is trying its hardest to be something, but it can't quite become what it wants to be.

I hope this game can find its Light Dragon someday.

If you read all of this, thanks. If I managed to five you something to do for a few minutes, I'm happy you got even that out of it ☺

Again, thanks for reading and Hyrule is awaiting you

What If It Were Brian

A/N AO3 is down due to a cypher attack. So no link right now and no idea the chapter number. 🤔🥺

Chapter 16

AO3

https://archiveofourown.org/works/48138910

They sit together, knee to knee, hand in hand. Jenny and Ian left to give them privacy. Jenny knows she can satisfy her curiosity by talking with Ian. The room is still, the crackling of the fireplace being the only accompaniment to her voice.

“He didn’t believe me, or so he said. That was belayed by him burning the clothes I came back in. I think he had to pretend that I ran off, was unfaithful so he wouldn’t have to face the truth. He was excited by the coming baby. He told me later that he couldn’t make any of his own, that the child I carried would be the only one he ever had. “

She adjusts, moving closer to him and he responds by pulling her close. She is a hair away from sitting on his lap when she continues, “When he was born, I tried to avoid all the medical intervention that they do then. I told the doctor that I wanted to stay awake,” he utters a sound of encouragement, “Frank wouldn’t back me up. They put me out.” It still brings sorrow and pain to think of it. She missed his birth. “I woke and it felt like Faith all over again. I didn’t know where my baby was, whether he lived!”

He pulls her the rest of the way in his lap and cradles her. She tucks her head under his chin and finds there, the strength to continue. “When Frank brought him in, oh Jamie, I never felt such relief. Then he introduced him as Frank Jr.” He hisses. “Just so. I made it clear what his name would be. I believe that is when he started to hate him.”

“He said thus?”

“Not in words but, I saw the disgust every time he looked at him, as his hair grew curlier and redder, whenever I called him by his grandsire’s name. He loathed me nursing.” At this, he growls. It sounds feral and she recalls the conversation they had while she was pregnant with Faith about her at her breast.

“He had nae right to even be privileged tae see thus.” She feels his hands shake under her breasts where they lay. Almost six years and it feels like just yesterday when they last came together by those bloody stones.

“Agree.” Her voice is husky. “He thought it distasteful and unsanitary.”

She meets his eyes and they are dark with need. “Did he taste your milk?”

“Never. We never. I couldn’t. He thought after Brian was born but, I made it clear I wouldn’t ever be a full wife to him. My husband wasn’t there.”

He makes a sound unlike any she ever heard from him and takes her lips in a bruising kiss. She feels him harden under her and moans into his mouth. He pulls away. “Tell me the rest, quickly.”

She catches her breath and does. “It slipped out. I wanted to say it for years but kept the promise I made to him. I never saw him so mad. He hit me hard across the face. I ran, picked up Brian and locked myself in my room, I rang my mates.”

“He struck you!” Rage runs through his body, even stronger then the lust.

“Yes. They came, my mates. We got out but not before he also hit my mate’s wife.”

He mutters curses. “Tis a grand thing that I cannae travel. I would kill him.”

“Fergus punched him.” She says with pride.

“Did he now? I shall have to reward him for that.”

“Yes. We went back to get Brian’s version of Swany. It was in the front yard, or garden. Joe went to get it just as Ian and Fergus arrived. Frank stepped out and Fergus saw Black Jack. His punch was instinctual. When I later explained about him, he said he wished he had done more.”

He grins. “That’s our lad.”

“Thank you for that, for claiming him for us.”

“I should have years ago.”

“Anyway, we went back to Sean’s and left from there.”

“I am sorry Sassanach, had I known…”

“You couldn’t have. I didn’t . He wasn’t like that before.”

“You and our son are back home now, never to leave again.”

“Never.” He is kissing her neck, “Oh. Was there anyone for you? Anyone you took to your bed?”

He stops and holds her face. “Never. The only lass I have had and will have in my bed is my wife.”

“Take me Jamie. Claim me again.”

He growls as he moves her so he can bolt the doors.

Note

Mischief, Of Princes and Princesses was everything I wanted and more! I want everyone who would be uplifted and comforted by this story to be able to access it. In the spirit of your original offer-

"as this fic is about queerness and acceptance, i will happily rewrite it for other queer identities upon request, whether that be trans woman, nonbinary, or any other shade of queerness, so just let me know!"

Would you consider, in time, creating an all-ages version that skips the sex? I know there is a lot of characterization in there that would be lost so this is not as simple as I make it sound. For once my favorite moment of a story was in the sex scene and I would hate to lose this:

"Mingi nods so quickly and intensely his crown slips sideways on his head, which is a cutely messed look on him. You like it, but you have an idea of a look you’ll like even more, taking the crown from him and swapping it with the tiara atop yours. It compliments him far better than it does you, you think, and seeing him wearing what’s so uniquely yours has your heart swelling"

You know I am ace and read everything as a learning experience, and this time I did not even wander away realizing my Neopets needed to be fed mid-scene as I have done with some stories, so it is not for myself that I ask. We know there are young people, sex-repulsed aces, and people otherwise preferring a safe for work version who would love this story too just as I do.

Thinking on it, bet a "just the sex" version linking to the original might draw people to the story who otherwise might not try it too.

oooh, so that was your favourite part! that's a good one, i do think it was very symbolic 😌 im sure i can incorporate the same concept into an all-ages version, did you want that to be an explicitly asexual reader, or just one where they just don't escalate from that balcony scene? how much of the making out should i leave in 🤔

that being said i don't think ill make a smut-only version, because that just takes away the entire message of the story i wanted to write. i already confessed i was not initially planning on putting a sex scene at all - though now im glad i did, you're right in saying it added a lot of characterization - and only really put it because works without smut don't tend to get half as many readers as works with it. it was a very blatant attempt at drawing in more readership for such an important story hsjshdjhd i feel like taking just the smut out of it ruins that. im sure readers who don't care about the rest would probably just skip to it anyway, but it would kill me if the notes on a smut-only version outdid the original, and honestly that's a very likely scenario.

Reading HOFAS:

ps;. I didn't HOSAB, anyway...

CH 1

First, Bryce is in a cell in Hewn city, and she was taken there by winnowing, yet didn't Azriel took her to the House of Wind? so how did he winnowed from there to somewhere else if the HoW has unbreakeable spells againt that... or did Nesta asked House to change some stuff so she can get tf out when she wants? 🤔

Rhysand, he’d called himself. The one who looked so much like Ruhn.

Poor Ruhn.

Then Amren start talking, when Rice is right there, like, just get in Bryce's mind and saves everyone time...

Rhysand murmured to the winged male beside him. Translating, perhaps.

Just translate is telepatically. No, better, why don't you just "dowload" the language in their brians like professor Xavier does?

The female went on, “If you are to be believed, how is it that you came here? Why did you come here?”

Why is the goblin making the questions? You have a master of interrogation (that should be supposed to know how to interrogate without torture) and a weak xmen right on your side.

The walls and ceiling pushed in, squeezing the air from her lungs. Rhysand lifted a broad hand wreathed in stars. “We won’t harm you.” Bryce found the rest of the sentence lurking within the dense shadows around him: if you don’t try to harm us.

"unless your arm is broken and the bone exposed..."

So Bryce fixed her eyes on the female, the smallest but by no means the least deadly of the group.

No powers, don't remember if she fights, i think she doesn't, she is exactly the least deadly of the group, a well done kick and she goes away flying.

“What … You mean the Starsword?” Another link between their worlds. All of them just stared at her again. An impenetrable wall of people accustomed to getting answers in whatever way necessary.

If the group's telepath used his oh-so-rare-power instead of using the opportunity to train a new language, they would have gotten the answers already...

Then ok, Bryce starts inventing a story about how she got there and the sword,

Silence. Then the silent, hazel-eyed warrior laughed quietly. How had he understood without Rhysand translating? Unless he could simply read her body language, her tone, her scent— ...

Rhysand glanced at him with raised brows, then translated for Bryce with equal menace, “You’re lying.”

So, someone give up speaking a new language, also why is Azriel, the non-telepath here being the lie detector?

After that Bryce tells them the truth.

“I just watched my mate and my brother get captured by a group of intergalactic parasites,” she snarled. “I have no interest in doing anything except finding a way to help them.” Rhysand looked to the warrior, who nodded, not taking his gaze off Bryce for so much as a blink. “Well,” Rhysand said to Bryce, crossing his muscled arms. “That’s true, at least.”

SJM, why is the telepath confirming if someone is lying or not with a non-telepath? Also, isn't Mor a lie detector? just call her and end this shit quick.

The female noted her hesitation and said, “Just look in her mind already, Rhys.”

Finally someone said the common sense.

I do not pry where I am not willingly invited.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

ACOTAR:

“You have seconds, Rhys,” Tamlin warned. “Seconds to get out.” “If I were you, I wouldn’t speak to me like that.” Against my volition, my body straightened, every muscle going taut, my bones straining. Magic, but deeper than that. Power that seized everything inside me and took control: even my blood flowed where he willed it. I couldn’t move. An invisible, talon-tipped hand scraped against my mind. And I knew—one push, one swipe of those mental claws, and who I was would cease to exist.

“I’d forgotten that human minds are as easy to shatter as eggshells,” Rhysand said, and ran a finger across the base of my throat. I shuddered, my eyes burning. “Look at how delightful she is—look how she’s trying not to cry out in terror. It would be quick, I promise.” “She has the most delicious thoughts about you, Tamlin,”

ACOMAF

“You’re prone to digging through my head whenever you please,” I said, stabbing a piece of melon with my fork. “I don’t see why you’re surprised by it.” “Only occasionally will I do that. And I can’t help it if you send things down the bond.” ... My innate talents allow me to slip through the mental shields of anyone I wish, with or without that bridge—unless they’re very, very strong, or have trained extensively to keep those shields tight. As a human, the gates to your mind were flung open for me to stroll through. As Fae … ”

“How many other minds have you accidentally slipped into?” Lucien— “Lucien?” A short laugh. “What a miserable place to be.” A low snarl rippled from me. “Do not go into my head.” “Your shield is down.”

ACOWAR

“If you want proof that we are not scheming with Hybern,” Rhysand said blandly to them all, “consider the fact that it would be far less timeconsuming to slice into your minds and make you do my bidding.”

ACOFAS

Likely wealthy young bucks out for the night. I reined in my scowl as Rhys’s voice filled my head. Mind your ownbusiness. Your sister is handily beating them at cards, by the way. Snoop

ACOSF

Nesta shot to her feet. “My life is not your concern, or up for any sort of discussion.” “Sit down,” Rhys snarled. The raw command in that voice, the utter dominance and power … She could have sworn something like pain had etched itself across his face

Eris closed the book, watching Cassian drop into the seat opposite him. “I suppose you want to know what I told Briallyn.” “Rhys already looked into your mind. Turns out, you didn’t know much.” He gave the male a slashing grin.

There are more but i won't be searching it right now.

May I look in your memories? To see for myself? No. You may not. Rhysand blinked slowly. Then he said aloud, “Then we’ll have to rely on your words.”

Such a gentleman, an example of person

The corner of Rhysand’s mouth curled upward. “We will not torture it from you,

It means he will order Azriel to do it.

nor will I pry it from your mind. If you choose not to talk, it is indeed your choice. Precisely as it will be my choice to keep you down here until you decide otherwise.”

Wow, the choice giver feminist king

“The Asteri. I told you—intergalactic parasites.”

Is SJM-verse also star wars or MCU now? is the planet Prythian is in named Asgard? where are the rebels and the Empire?

He snapped his fingers again, and the blood, the dirt on her, disappeared. A stickiness still coated her skin, but it was clean.

From every single thing in acotar series, SJM remembered how the cleaning magic that doesn't clean properly works, now i am surprised.

Amren angled her head, sleek bob shifting with the movement. “A tax on your magic, taken by ancient beings for their own nourishment and power.” Azriel’s gaze shifted to her, Rhysand presumably still translating mind-to-mind. But Amren murmured to herself, as if the words triggered something, “A tithe.”

Jesus, the astheri eats souls and power, also, Amren, you are such a genious 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

She swallowed again. “Midgard is only the latest in a long line of worlds invaded by the Asteri.

They are also Galactus

“You know my sword by a different name, but you recognize what it is.” Only Amren nodded. “I think it’s because it came from this world,” Bryce said. “It seems connected to that dagger somehow

But how did Az got the dagger? is he like 1/17 or something starborn or whatever?

...And, as far as I know, there were only three planets that were able to kick them out—to fight back and defeat them.Hel, a planet called Iphraxia, and … a world occupied by the Fae. The original, Starborn Fae.”

“You know my sword by a different name, but you recognize what it is.” ... “I think it’s because it came from this world,”

“So you believe,” Amren said slowly, silver eyes flickering, “that our world is this third planet that resisted these … Asteri.”

What the fuck did she just told you, Amren?

Bryce could have sworn Rhysand’s golden face paled slightly

Can rhyand change his skin color at will? at each book he has a different skin tone, book one he is as pale as a paper, book 2 he is tan, then at some point he got dark brown, now he is golden skin, his next appearence is going to be what? pale again? blue avatar? is sjm just forgetting again?

How to begin describing guns or brimstone missiles or mech-suits or Omega-boats or even the Asteri’s power?

Avatar (2009)?

She extended her hand to Rhysand. “I’ll show you.” Amren and Azriel cut him sharp looks. Like this might be a trap

Don't you guys remember what he did to the summer's last high lord before Tarquin took place? Amren you even called him ugly right in Tarquin's face.

“Guns,” Bryce said, pointing to the rifle Randall fired in her displayed memory, landing a perfect bulls-eye shot in a target half a mile off. “Brimstone missiles.” .... Rhysand mastered himself, a cool mask sliding into place. “You live in such a world.” It wasn’t entirely a question. But Bryce nodded. “Yes.” “And they want to bring all of that … here.”

Imagine if humans at the continents down to Prythian's planet north hemisphere alredy have that kind of stuff but even more technological, like, kinda cyberpunk to the point there are devices that make a magnet camp that can turn off magic or something like that.... idk just would find that interesting🤔🤔🤔

Bryce examined the silver bean that lay smooth and gleaming in her hand. Amren said without looking at her, “You swallow it, and it will translate our mother tongue for you. Allow you to speak it, too.”

I have saw that somewhere else but don't remember where.

Azriel was already poised over her, that deadly dagger drawn and gleaming with a strange black light.

And then it goes to her hand like mjolnir returns to thor's hand

“Put it away, you fool,” Amren said. “It sings for her, and by bringing it close—”

Don't put away Az, I want to see the mjolnir dagger working.

Amren turned to Rhysand and said in that new, strange language—their language: “The glowing letters inked on her back … they’re the same as those in the Book of Breathings.”

They once again assessed her. Three apex killers, contemplating a threat. Then Azriel said in a soft, lethal voice, “Explain or you die.”

Soft voice? Own, he is so cute treatening, such a kitty hissing 🥺😺😺

Crown of Dragons (Dragon Blessed 1)

Book 1 in the Bleeding Realms Dragon Blessed series

SPOILERS

Hazel sees dead people, creepy 😳 okay just their spirits, but she can’t really communicate with them, at least not yet. I’m assuming that she will find a way down the road.

WAIT! Dean knows who she is? That she can see spirits? And believes she’s encroaching on his turf?

Now a girl she just met is dead. Hmmm…

Khali, is basically a prisoner/trophy. She is Dragon Blessed, I believe that means she has all four elements, she is to be married to the next King, which will be chosen by the current king it sounds like. The eldest was accused of kissing her which is grounds for exile and if he returns, death. Harsh and weird.

Bram wants to know what really happened because Khali had a crush on the brother and the brother did not have feelings for her. 🤔🤔🤔

They know about the mortal realm, not supposed to read about it. You know what that means?! Someone is going to travel from one realm to the other at some point.

One of the princes, Owen, is her friend, but mom wants her to pick Silas, but she doesn’t really get a choice now does she.

Khali is not “allowed” to shift into a dragon, but she does on occasion anyway

Silas, Owen’s twin, Bram is the youngest, oldest exiled is DEAN ASHTON, HE’S IN THE MORTAL REALM WITH HAZEL! Did he go there on purpose? Does that mean that Hazel isn’t supposed to be in the mortal realm?

Soooo, it almost sounds like Dean is there on purpose and there are people who know he’s there, or that’s where he got exiled to. Why would they want to spy on him though? It also definitely sounds like Hazel might either be from the other realm or has genes from an ancestor who was from the other realm.

NOOOOOOOO Owen can’t be dead!!!! 😭😭😭 That is sooooo unfair.🤬 To be honest, I was going to give Silas the benefit of the doubt to end up being a good guy for Khali, but nope. He’s definitely first in line for the chopping block. Dick!

And Hazel is working in the Chakra store instead of the coffee place, this is going to be so much better for her. I’m loving Harmony.

Seriously? Seriously?! SERIOUSLY?!?!?! I hate her mother. I hate the King. I like where Khali’s mind is going though. If she can get another family on the throne that would be better, but her family is at risk if she tries that. It also sounds like the rest of their realm is being taken over, so how is there another family? Do they all live in the one city, Drakenon???

LOL of COURSE her first reading is non other than Dean. 🤣 No come back. Wow she goes to apologize and he still doesn’t believe that she has no idea what he’s talking about. WTF?! a dragon?! Wait is that Owen? If Owen found her then she really is linked to their realm some how. That’s gotta be what has Dean so angry with her, but why?

That was in poor taste, announcing their engagement after the funeral for Owen. Yay dad! 🥳 Wait what? 😱 Shit. Awwww her poor dad. 🥺💔

It is Owen isn’t it? Oh sure, now he cares to ask her questions. See this is why I think he knows more about what’s going on, and I think he is either there on purpose or maybe he got sent there to keep him from revealing something. What’s in the forest? Where’s he going? Why doesn’t he trust Harmony?

Oh so her dad was some kind of spy and got hexed because of it, but not before discovering that Khali is going to die. Awesome. Silas is more of an ass than I gave him credit for. I fucking hate double standards. I think if she’s the prize then she should be the ruler. Maybe that will happen.

Of course Dean is sitting next to her now. Definite “Is this where you kill me?” vibes 😅😅😅 He wants her help but he won’t give her information in return. Why is it dangerous for him to tell her things that it seems like she’s supposed to already know? If she’s supposed to already know them then what’s the harm in telling her?

Go Khali! Damn, blocked. Oh Bram is so smart. I think everyone is underestimating him. Everytime they’re alone I keep thinking he’s going to reveal that he does have magic, but hasn’t happened yet. Wait if he suspects her father was visiting Dean maybe Harmony hexed him. I bet that’s it. Are Khali and Bram going to go to the human realm and bring Dean and Hazel back with them? 🤔🤔

Hazel is followed by a man, she exits the alley and sees the dragon spirit on the roof. It swoops down the alley, Dean appears and asks if saw dragon and where it went, she points and he takes off. WTF was that all about?

Khali and Bram travel to the Jewel forest and then rest, Khali almost bites it after a voice like Owens lures her away, she realizes trees feed off of blood. There’s something wrong with her magic. At least that’s what it seems like and i’m wondering if it has to do with the prologue. Now that I think about it, I’m thinking whoever took her blood, the spell is supposed to kill her and end the dragon blessed forever. :(

Hazel ends up doing a reading for the mother of a girl who went missing 2 years ago, happy and at peace, won’t say what happened just shares a happy memory, mother thanks her says be careful, darkness in this town. This was such a nice scene until she mentioned the darkness in town.

Hazel breaks into Dean’s house to find answers 🤣🤣 but obviously he has an invisible alarm and catches her. He finally agrees to talk, yay!

Khali and Bram make it to the Fae land, meet Terek who knows who they are 👀 👀 👀

Dean shows Hazel he’s a dragon and she doesn’t run, he tells her he’s not supposed to be there but has made himself comfortable and thought she was there to take him back. 🥺

Tagalong Terek takes Bram and Khali to a clearing where it sounds like the flowers influence Khali and Bram to kiss? Not gonna lie, I kind of expected them to kiss at some point, because I feel like she’s going to end up with Bram in the end.

Hazel takes off her necklace to do a reading for Dean and Katherine spirit decides to just bombard her with what happened to her. Dean puts necklace back on her 🥰, she didn’t see dragon, Dean takes her home. She did see a man with solid black eyes. Hazel tells Macy and Cora about her gift but leaves out the dragon part and Dean, they believe her. Yay!

Occultist captures Bram to get to Khali, awesome.

Khali looking for Bram, Silas shows up, demands she come home, she says no and flies away, south to go to human realm on her own to find Dean 🥳

Hazel date with Landon, goes well, keeps thinking of Dean though 🤣, park at lake, she is creeped out because of what happened to Katherine and Landon kisses her, then basically attacks her, she sees his black eyes, necklace ripped off, sees spirit, figures out it’s controlling Landon, didn’t know that was possible 😱😱😱

Khali reaches the lake and feels for the magic, follows it, water creature will help but owe her a debt, Khali agrees, follow to bottom of lake and when she comes back up she’s in the human realm. Yay 🥳🥳🥳

Possessed Landon tries to kill Hazel but dragon spirit distracts other spirit and she gets away, then dragon loses and spirit takes over Landon again, he searches for her, she tries to contact detective but Landon finds her, takes to lake and going to start a ritual. Is this part of the Occultists thing that has to do with Khali?

Please tell me it’s Hazel that Khali is hearing scream. It is Hazel! Yay!! Khali kills Landon 😭 Khali fights the reaper, Dean shows up 🥳🥳 and they kill it together, felt her dragon come through, cops show up, Khali tells him evil hurt Hazel and she killed it, Dean had to run away

In the hospital Khali tells Hazel what happened. Dean comes in, Khali explains she was pulled to Hazel, had to save her and couldn’t leave her, literally. Find out Hazel and Khali have same exact birthday, 12/16. Khali thinks Hazel has spirit element and that they are connected through a spell, and they have 2 months to break it and save Khali’s family. 😅😅😅😬

This was so good. I can’t wait to read the other two books and find out more about this spell. If they’re all going to go to the other realm. If they’re going to save Bram. If Hazel and Dean will end up together. If Khali and Bram will end up together. If Khali will change everything and rule alone. What will Hazel’s spirit element grow into.

𝐁𝐍𝐇𝐀 𝐁𝐎𝐘𝐒 𝐌𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐑 𝐅𝐔𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐃!!

⁰⁰¹.pairings: various x fem!reader | ft. bakugou, todoroki, shinsou

⁰⁰².warnings: none !!

⁰⁰³.genre: fluff, crack + sfw !!

⁰⁰⁴.notes: hello hello !! should i do this on jjk too?? 🤔

⁰⁰⁵.other links: navigation ; gen.masterlist ; bnha.masterlist ; taglist form

𝐁𝐀𝐊𝐔𝐆𝐎𝐔

— if bakugou be seeing his kid, he would NOT believe in it. He has a dream to become number one! Why would he settle down and have a kid in the first place?! The little boy looked him dead in the eyes and said, "you look ugly."

His friends laughed out loud at him and asked who was the mother of the kid bakugou. The kid didn't answer and ignored the question. Because he saw you passing by the hallways and hugged you. You were surprised to see the kid hugging your waist.

"Uhh, kid? I think you've mistaken me.."

Bakugou and the rest saw you, and had their jaws wide open, except him. No no, it can't be you.

"Mama, why does dada look so ugly?" he pointed out bakugou. You laughed, "kid, I think you banged your head or something," you patted his little head. You crouched down and asked, "what's your daddy and mommy looked like?"

Bakugou's ear perked up and listened to the kid's answer, "mama was a good teacher and dada was this big scary guy who blasts bad guys to the sky! and! and! i-i wanna be like that too!" The kid said with full energy with the corner of his eyes, started to tear up.

Kirishima and the others stared bawling their eyes out from the cuteness of the kid's answer. Kirishima started clapping, "what a *sniff* manly kid"

The kid began to disappear like a cloud of dust and was gone for ten seconds, probably returned to his original world and home. The bell rang, signaling everyone to go back to their respected classes.

You were about to go back to your calss when bakugou stepped ou and said, "i'll walk you to class."

𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐎𝐊𝐈

— he sees the kid in the heights alliance, which was weird. Who lets their child be lost in this ginormous building? He approached the girl and asked, "are you lost? Does your parents know that you're here?"

The little girl shook her head in disagreement, "i-i just woke up and i was here, i don't know why i'm here because that i- d-daddy will get angry if i got lost..." she cried. Poor little girl.

He offered his hand to her and said, "i'll help you find you parents."

The little girl held his hand gently and giggled, "your hand is cold. Are you sick?" She asked. Todoroki shook his head and replied, "it's because of my quirk," he showed both of his quirks simultaneously, revealing ice on the left and fire on the left.

The little girl's eyes began to widen her smile widened as he sees todoroki power that reminds her of her daddy. "y-you have the same powers as my daddy!" She excitingly said.

Todoroki raised his eyebrows in confusion, "may i ask on what's you daddy's name?" He asked.

"Oh! My daddy's name is Todoroki Shouto," she replied. A good idea popped on his mind, if this was his daughter then, who was the mother? "May i also know who is your mother?" He asked once again.

"My mommy's name is Todoroki y/n. But daddy always calls her darling. Ewww," she formed bith of her index fingers with a 'x' sign and sticks out her tongue.

Oh.

Out of all people, it has to be you. And he likes the idea of it.

𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐔

— the funny bit was that shinsou's eye widened as he sees the kid who has the same face as him. He looked at the kid once again, to see he was not dreaming just simply too sleepy that he was seeing someone.

"Come on dad, don't look at me like that- you're even more creepy," she said. He blinked a couple of times and looked away, "sorry," he apologized. The little girl pointed at him, "I didn't know why mom married you anyway. You always looked sleepy."

He felt like an iron block fell on his head when he's supposed to be daughter roasted him. "Is that how you speak to everyone?" He asked the girl.

"—shinsou! kuro was stick in the tree again!"

The little girl smiled widely with her eyes blaming with happiness, she ran off to the voice where it came from. Shinsou heard your yelling voice so he ran off in your direction. Both of them reached to you to see you panic. Because the cat was on the tree.

Shinsou look above and let kut a small sigh.

"How did he even get there?"

"Well, bakugou earlier tried to go near to Kuro and yeah, he jumped off and rushed out to the tree, and now I can't do that because I can't climb— oh, who's this little girl?" You bend your knees to see the girl.

"Mama!" She exclaimed. Both you and shinsou blushed at the little girl's word. Shinsou blushed more because now he knew the mother of his child. Whoever thought of him and you, having a kid together?

reblogs are highly appreciated !!

T-TE-Earl Gay | J&N – Johan & Nyström

Mr. C, approximately straight dude, spotted this at the store yesterday and was tempted to pick it up for me--until he saw the price. 😰 (Around $19/£14.50 for a 180g tin of loose tea, $14/£11 for a refill box through the company's site there. Probably higher at ICA.) And he has been somewhat into specialty teas for ages now, not necessarily expecting everything to come at Lipton prices.

Mostly because he thought it was kinda cute, and I might get a charge out of aggressively rainbow tea.

This was apparently a limited time Pride thing? But evidently either brought back for a while, or more permanently added to their range. As he was saying too, I really hope a good chunk of that profit is going to some appropriate organization(s), but if so? J&N doesn't seem to be publicizing it that I could find with my still-pitiful Swedish skills. 🤔 Here's hoping it's not just the product of some extra egregious rainbow-washing.

Anyway, I did get a charge out of seeing that this is a thing in grocery stores, and I wouldn't mind trying it out of curiosity at some point. Just as glad he did not get that instead of the basic Earl Gray I requested, though, without looking at the label carefully.

A somewhat better translation of the description:

Honeybush Earl Gay Organic is a tea beyond all definitions of what one should be and contain; a wild and beautiful blend of honeybush, white and black tea flavored with cornflowers, bergamot and rainbows. Drink it with or without sugar and milk. Drink it tonight or for the rest of your life. Drink it from a cup, from a shoe, or directly from the spout of the teapot. Honeybush Earl Gay Organic is your tea. And how you love it is up to you.

(No idea what's up with the one on J&N's site linked before, since pretty much everybody under maybe 70 here luckily speaks better English than that! Lucky in a way for my purposes, at least.)

I really like rooibos, but have yet to try its honeybush cousin. That does sound like an interesting blend, but only vaguely inspired by your classic Earl Gray.

My 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ Review - Part 9 (Recorded Video) [Mar 27, 2021]

Here’s the Part 9 of my 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ Gamepad.🎮🙂

I haven’t continue this ongoing topic review since Jan of this year, so now I have plenty of time to do this.😊

Anyways in this part I’m going to attempt a update firmware for my 8Bitdo Gamepad with my Windows 10 PC.🖥️➡️🎮⬇️🔄 You already saw me updating the firmware for my wireless adapter, right? Yup, that’s the old manual way; so this time is the exact opposite. If you haven’t seen my two previous posts however, then I’ll provide some links down below.↓

My 8bitdo USB Wireless Adapter ‘PS Classic Edition’ • Part 7 [Oct 28, 2020] - [CLICK ME!] • Extra Part (Final Plus) [Nov 25, 2020] - [CLICK ME!]

But before that, I want to shout out two things: • #1: Shout out to my A-Pal @bryan360, for a tremendous topic work for his YCCTEAM Switch Pro Controller. He did a charging test to playtime for a excessive 20+ hours (after accomplish his doing important tasks), before his battery rang out. I already gave thoughts to him and I can’t wait to see what’s next.🎮😊

• And #2: 8Bitdo is already making a new wireless pro controller, with a quote “An evolution of Pro+”! I’ve seen it and it looks cooler than the SN30 Pro+ gamepad (like I have right here).😮 I would like to show ya, but I prefer to go check yourself right away → [CLICK ME!].

- Now back to my topic... -

Anyways, you haven’t seen my previous part of the same topic, then please [CLICK ME!].

*But before that, I want YOU… Yes you, which you’re reading my description. I want you to watch my recorded video first 📹📲 (as a observation) before you read the rest of my reaction experience. Hope you’re watching…

So without further ado, let’s get started:

My Experience: • (Now as you already done watching video.) I already download the 8bitdo Upgrade Tool software from their website. So, how did I get that? Well, here are my screenshots as follows.↓🖼️

• Once I opened the application, I’m now plug in my 8bitdo gamepad through my PC and begin the update firmware progress. Screenshot right here.↓🖼️

• As you can see my screenshot image, my recent version is v3.02. The v5.00 fixes and tweaks minor issues, as well as adding swap function through Ultimate Software (which I’ll get to that someday). So I go ahead to download their recent firmware update, and wait. It takes a minutes or so 🔄⬇️.

•And once the latest update firmware is complete, I’m ready to play. And here you see my 8bitdo gamepad’s firmware is v5.00 (instead of v3.02). But before that, I want to test it first with my trusty gamepad tester website; and that’s gonna be a separate post.😉

Overall: • This is a very useful upgrade tool software for all 8bitdo items, and much easier than the old manual firmware. Hopefully I could update my wireless adapter very soon, although I’m not sure their recent firmware update will be trusted. So should I? Well, I’ll think about it...🤔 But nevertheless, hope the recent firmware (v5.00) for my 8bitdo gamepad will work functional as the old firmware (v3.02) during my playtime.🙂🎮🖥️

BTW: As you see the 1st screenshot, it doesn’t seem match as the recent one. Their old "Upgrade Tool” software was selectable items to update the firmware compare to automatic plug in; as you watch my recorded video. Hopefully the folks at 8bitdo will something about that, but otherwise totally forgettable.🙂

Well, that’s all for now. And I’ll see you in my next part by [CLICK ME!].

My UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter Review (w/ my Paper Dolls) - Part 3 [Jan 14, 2021]

Here’s my part 3 of my UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter for my Windows PC.📶🖥️😊

In this part, I have a recorded video (from my Honor 8C phone 📲) to tested out how it works with my almost 3 year old Awei Y200 Bluetooth Speaker and without installing a CSR Harmony V2.0 from the included mini CD.❌💿

BTW: The original size of my recorded video was 225MB. So I can’t upload the original size, despite the limitations of upload video size from tumblr. So once again I decided to use cloudconvert.com [CLICK ME!] in order to reduce the size ⬇️🎞️. Even though the details might be diminish compare to the original but at least you and I could see the item(s) what you and I see.

So without further ado, let’s get started:

My Experience: • (Now as you already done watching video.) I’m attempt to connect my UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter through my Windows 10 PC, and once that I can see a solid white light appears from the adapter ⚪. I checked on the screen and I noticed it didn’t see the "new device” from the notifications section, I only see the Bluetooth icon on the windows 10 taskbar. But before I open the Bluetooth window task I need to turn on my Awei Y200 Bluetooth speaker first 📻. So now I opened the Bluetooth window task, and you can see I noticed the named “dongle” for the UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter. Also that icon should be more fitting than the headset/headphone icon, but then again it’s supports wireless audio devices after all. Anyways my Awei Bluetooth Speaker was already on, so I’m proceed to click the “Add Bluetooth or other device”➕; where I can find or rather scan the brand specific wireless speaker, until it pops up the device and click to connect. • So now my Awei Bluetooth Speaker is successfully connected through my UGREEN Bluetooth Adapter from my Windows 10 PC 📻📶🖥️, and I noticed that the name of the brand and model appears 🔊; not to mention the battery rate status 🔋 appears on the audio connect section, which is so cool.😁 I even try to compare with the old Genius brand speakers and it seems quite the same sound quality.🙂

Overall: • This is just the beginning of testing out my UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter with my Awei Y200 Bluetooth Speaker, and hopefully I will tested out other devices as well very soon. • Anyways, I have to say that this is okay without installing the CSR Harmony V2.0 either from the included mini CD or download from the UGREEN support website, despite that it has “Plug ‘n Play” feature; like most other Bluetooth adapter brands do. Although I could install that software because it has extra features but will see in the upcoming part.🤔

Nonetheless, I have another recorded video though as a half part. As well as my extended experience on using my UGREEN Bluetooth adapter connecting my Awei Bluetooth speaker. So if you want to see my next one then please [CLICK ME!].

Well, that’s all for now. If you want to see related posts about that, I’ll provide some links down below.↓😉

UGREEN USB Bluetooth Adapter: • Unopened parcel [Nov 9, 2020] • Revealing item (Recorded Video) [Nov 9, 2020] • Part 1 [Dec 5, 2020] • Part 2 [Dec 15, 2020]

Partial win, at least! I'll take what I can get, for now at any rate.

I hopefully shouldn't need to ration the insulin/my food intake again. *fingers crossed* Still fighting the urge to conserve insulin Just In Case, though I know very well that half of that (at minimum!) is coming straight from Eating Disorder Brainweasels. 😩 Those fuckers sure are persistent.

Finally did fill out an eConsult thing last night, dealing with the prescription problems. As hard as it was to figure out an even vaguely appropriate category to submit it through that system. 🙄 Finally went with the now untreated nerve pain, as priority.

I was hoping Random Doctor at the practice would at least be willing/able to tell me if there was some error, or if those meds were supposed to have been dropped from my repeat prescription request forms. But, not entirely surprised that they didn't even want to touch that one, and told me to make a phone appointment because Pandemic Time. 😬

(That is about the least accessible option possible for my HOH ass, but I guess I had better try after the weekend. I haven't actually used the newest incarnation of the Relay UK app for any calls yet, but that is indeed an option. On the "I can talk but I can't bloody hear you!" setting. Hopefully this works better than the previous, though, since AFAICT it's the only relay app option here. I really really hate voice calls based on the history of bad experiences, though.)

If that doesn't get those prescriptions back, there is still the upcoming vascular surgery followup appointment where I can raise the issue. Should probably try and talk to the GP first, though.

That's another thing, though: I have no "usual clinician" there yet! 😑 Not even sure who my GP is supposed to be right now. Thanks to going back to that practice after getting out of the hospital in the middle of 'Rona Madness, I haven't even heard from anyone about any appointments. (Or when regular bloodwork is due, or anything else to date.)

Guess I may find out who I'm supposed to talk to when I do go to set up a phone appointment? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Surreal GP experience so far, on top of everything else.

Anyway, the other diabetic supply items is where it got extra confusing there. And I wasn't able to log in to Patient Access earlier, to see what repeat prescription items were actually displaying, because system problems. Guess I had better try again later!

What I asked for: (a) More glucose test strips, after they only prescribed 100 for a whole month. When I have been needing to test in the ballpark of 4-8 times a day, and buy extra strips on my own. No mention of those in the text reply.

(b) Shorter, thinner, less painful needles--which are apparently also less likely to cause scarring over time. Which it sounds like they may have gotten right! 🤔 Again, I ended up ordering a box of more appropriate ones on my own, which really have helped.

(c) Totally different lancets. Again, of a thinner WAY less painful type, to use with the (adjustable depth!) lancing device I already have. What was previously prescribed: multiple big boxes of the awful disposable lancing devices, as used in the hospital. Evidently designed to draw blood through 2" thick calluses, from the feel of things. 😵 (That's not the exact model I got through the link, but for an idea.)

I have not used a single one of those lancets, and would totally stab my fingers with a rusty nail before I would voluntarily tear up my fingers with those things at home. Another thing I needed to buy out of pocket. When all supplies are supposed to be free for diabetics.

So yeah, here's hoping that they didn't really prescribe even more of those lancets! Remains to be seen exactly what changes were made in the system.

At any rate, more insulin and (hopefully) better needles to use it with, I am counting as successes. Hopefully at least some of the rest can also get straightened out, as necessary. *fingers crossed*

It could be worse, I could also be needing to deal with US-style insurance company layers of bullshit on top of the rest. 😰 (Or the Uninsured Experience again while relying on insulin now, but hey.)
