Whumptober day 23- shadows, stalking, who’s there?

The only times that I use all three prompts is when it’s a super goofy and lighthearted fic lol.

Anyways Twi loves cats. So very much.

Warnings: implications of broken bones, implications of animal abuse, but it’s very, very mild.

~~~~~~~~~~

Everything about this place put Twilight on edge. He couldn’t explain it, but he constantly felt like he was being watched by something in the shadows. But everytime he looked over his shoulder, there was no one watching him. He tried to convince himself that he was overreacting, but the feeling never went away. Eventually Twilight found himself alone in an alleyway, away from other people. His heart rate spiked as he looked around, his paranoia getting the best of him as he got even more lost. The sun was setting, making the alleyway harder to see, which didn’t do him any favors for his anxiety.

Something was knocked over behind him and he flinched, pulling out his sword to protect himself from whatever appeared. But he found nothing, just an empty alleyway with knocked over crates scattering across the ground. Twilight growled and got low.

“Who’s there?” He called out in a firm voice, holding his sword defensively. It was silent for a moment, until Twilight heard the tiniest little meow. He gasped when he saw a little orange kitten wander out from behind the crates, staring at Twilight with the biggest, darkest eyes he’s ever seen. The rancher quickly put the sword away, the fear of being stalked immediately leaving him as his heart practically exploded. He gave a small squeal that the others would never let him live down, and he got on his knees as the little baby trotted towards him, sniffing his hand cautiously before rubbing his head against it. Twilight gave out another squeal and picked the kitty up, scratching its little head as it purred.

“Oh sweet spirits above you are so cute,” Twilight cried, trying not to smother it with kisses. The kitty sniffed his cheek and Twilight gave it a very gentle squeeze. “You’re just a babyyyyy.”

The kitty meowed and Twilight practically started weeping, stroking its back gently, until he heard another noise behind him. Twilight snapped out of his stupor and he shot up, holding his sword in one hand and the kitten in the other.

“Who’s there?” He called out, more aggressively this time, holding the kitten protectively. This time, a group of men walked out from the buildings around him, surrounding him. They all snarled and sneered, pulling out their various weapons. Twilight glared at them, holding his sword defensively. “Who are you?”

One stepped up in front of the others, swinging around a club arrogantly. “We’re just simple folks trying to make a living, my good sir.”

Twilight narrowed his eyes. “And what does that have to do with me, exactly?”

The leader chuckled, looking at the men around him, who chuckled as well. “You’re worth a lot of money, boy. And we got families to feed.”

Twilight growled. “You’re bounty hunters!”

“Not very bright are you?” The leader sneered. “So soft too. I knew the kitten would lead you in somehow.”

Twilight gasped. “You used it against me?”

“Of course we did. It wasn’t easy to get either, the darn mother was so… feisty.”

Fury built up in Twilight’s chest. “You took it from its mother? What kind of a monster does that?”

“Oh please, it’s just a cat.” He said nonchalantly. Twilight growled holding the kitten tighter against his chest, and the bounty hunter scoffed. “Get him boys, try not to hurt him too much.”

Twilight brought his sword behind him, deflecting an attack from behind. He kicked the person who attempted to take a blow at him, and dodged another attack from someone with a knife. He fought defensively, making sure that nothing would hurt the kitten bundled up in his arms. He deflected an attack from a sword and punched the owner’s nose, hearing a satisfying pop. He kicked another bounty hunter in the chest, hearing a loud crack as he was slammed against the wall. One grabbed the arm that was cradling the kitten, and Link gave him a death glare. He saw the fear in the hunter’s eyes and he punched him hard in the face. Soon, there were only two remaining, the leader, and one holding a spear. They looked at him in fear, and the leader glanced at the other one.

“C– c’mon! It can’t be that hard to capture him!” He shouted. The spear-holding bounty hunter huffed and charged Twilight. The rancher planted his feet and grabbed the hunter with one hand, throwing him across the alleyway. He turned to the leader, who looked terrified. Twilight gave him a smirk and checked the kitten, who was purring and snuggling up against his chest. He gave a hum of satisfaction and walked over to the leader, who hopped back.

“W-wait! Wait hold on, we can come to an agreement,” he stammered, dropping his club. Twilight glared at him, holding his sword to his throat.

“Why would I come to an agreement with you?”

“We’ll come for your friends next, boy. They, especially the smaller ones, seem easier to nab than you.”

Twilight pressed his sword up against his throat, snarling. “I’m not going to let you hurt any of them, especially the smaller ones.”

“You know, if you give yourself up willingly, I might… well… forget about them.”

Twilight tilted his head, then snorted, bringing his knee to his gut and punching him unconscious.

“As if I’d give you the chance to hurt any of them,” he muttered, grabbing rope that fell out of the crate. He set the kitten down and tied up the bounty hunters, walking away from the alleyway with the tiny feline in his arms.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The kitten was talkative as Twilight walked towards a farm as a wolf. He held the kitten gently in his mouth as he talked and talked about his life on the farm.

“And I tried to catch a mouse myself, but it was too fast for me and the others kept making fun of me ‘cause of it,” the kitten rambled, and Twilight only hummed in response. When he got closer to the farm, he made sure to stay out of sight from the farmers, not wanting to scare them with the presence of a large wolf. But luckily, a different pair of eyes saw him, a momma cat came running towards him, looking frantic as she saw her son in the wolf’s jaws.

“Mommy!” The kitten cheered as he was set down, and he ran to his mother while she rubbed her face against him.

“You’re safe! I was so worried!” She cried.

“I got taken by humans, but that’s ok! Because this wolf saved me!”

The momma cat looked at Twilight, and rubbed against his legs. “Thank you so much. Wolves don’t normally help us smaller animals. You’re too kind.”

Twilight booped her with his nose, and the kitten joined them.

“He’s not actually a wolf, he’s a human! He just turned into a wolf!”

“Oh, enough with your stories,” his mother scolded.

“But it’s true!”

Twilight gave a wolf-like chuckle as the kitten and his mother argued. Soon, more kittens came by, looking at the large and gentle wolf with their mother and brother.

“Woah! A wolf!”

“Is he nice?”

“Mommy don’t get eaten!”

Twilight laid down as all the kittens laid on top of him, playing with his ear, snuggling in his fur, and licking his nose. The rancher was enjoying every second of it.

“I’m so sorry about my kits, they don’t know manners,” the momma cat apologized, but Twilight huffed it away. He loved being bombarded by kittens. “I can't blame them for wanting to play on you, your fur is so soft.”

Twilight booped her with his nose and rested his head on the ground. The momma cat reluctantly curled up on his side while her kitties joined her. They all nuzzled in comfortably, some of the kitties making biscuits on his back. Twilight rested his head on the ground and let out a huff, and soon, the animals were drifting off, with Twilight feeling like he was in heaven.

He loved cats.

#originally twi was gonna get captured because he saw a kitty #cuz he will forget about all dangers in the world for a cat #but then I thought it’d be funnier if he was so protective of the Kitty that he beat the crap out of everyone trying to hurt him #like he would #lbl twi #link between links #smiles writes #whumptober #whumptober 2023 #whumptober day 23

OH MY GOD, I THOUGHT THE SAME THING!!! Freddy needs to pur! And I did know that! :D I watched a video of a man caressing his pet polar bear and yes, it sounded very much like a running engine. The camera was far away and you can still hear the rumbling! On a side note, did you know cheetahs can pur and meow? Their meows are so cute! But yeah, I also wish that Freddy went crazy on at least one enemy in the game and wreck them lol! As for the bear-like thing, I'm sure you already know about it so I'm likely going to disappoint you but he roars at you once and snarls at you a little later on in Ruin

Freddy purring scenario, Freddy spotting Gregory after being separated for a bit:

Freddy: “Gregory!”

Gregory: (flinches at the sound of Freddy’s booming voice) “Freddy!?” (Turns and points his flash light from where the voice came from)

Freddy: (Runs up to tiny human) “I been looking everywhere for you” (head pats the grego) “I am so sorry for what happen earlier— I promise you, we will not be separated like that again”

Gregory: (tries to swat Freddy’s paw off and play it cool) “its fine, I’m just glad that you didn’t get turn into scraps back there”

Freddy: “…” (starts purring) [because Gregory admitted that he cares for Freddy’s wellbeing and is happy to see him]

Bonus:

Gregory: (he tilted his head and squinted his eyes while pointing a finger to the bear) “Freddy, why do you sound like a car engine?…”

#glamrock freddy #gregory #Freddy is bear-ing #fun fact:#(brown) bears claws can grow for about four inches

It’s finally dooooneeeeee. Now I can go back to the animatic, lol. My backgrounds suck when it’s not nature, but I tried. XD Part three of chapter 17 for my fanfic, Forest Deep. There’s nothing quite like listening to the original soundtrack when drawing the original (and only) Lord Sesshomaru and Inugang. Yashahime doesn’t exist.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/24115702/chapters/58056064

Story Snippet:

I barely got two steps in through the doorway when there was a loud meow and I was catching a familiar cat demon in my arms, the kitten curling against my chest and licking the blood off my face. I stumbled and caught myself, standing still for a second as I processed this. I held her up, staring at her big red eyes in shock.

"K-Kirara?"

A voice from inside called out my name and very soon a young brunette came rushing out, barreling into me as she wrapped her arms around my shoulders. Sesshōmaru and Jaken waited outside in the hallway, stopping as if they knew what was about to transpire. "Irene! Do you have any idea how worried I was about you!?"

"S-Sango?" She held me so tight she was shaking. Relief washed over me and I leaned into the touch, having a bit of trouble reciprocating before Kirara climbed onto my head. I clung to her kimono, burying my face in her shoulder. "I-I was so scared that- ohhh, I'm so glad you're safe!"

"I should be saying that about you!" She pulled away, grasping my shoulders. Her eyes widened and she then reached up, resting the back of her hand against my face. "Irene, you're burning up! Your eyes are all red and puffy, too. Were you crying again? Your wounds are still bleeding, too! How much blood have you lost? I'm surprised you're still even able to walk!"

I laughed weakly through the mask, pulling back a hand and tapping at the object. "Mostly because of sheer willpower and this. Think you can make me one sometime? I love it."

"It might take a while, but sure. I'll have to collect the demon bones necessary to do so." She looked over her shoulder, calling out to the others. "Everyone, look! Inuyasha was right; Irene is here! She's safe!"

Kagome brought a hand to her chest, letting out a small sigh. "That's a relief. I'm glad."

"Me too." Miroku smiled. "We were getting a bit stressed out waiting for you. We feared the worst might have happened."

Inuyasha scoffed, crossing his arms. "I told 'em not to worry. You can be pretty useless most of the time, but you always pull through in the end. Still…" His ear twitched and he glanced uncomfortably at the doorway. I wondered if he could smell the demons I was travelling with. I sincerely hoped he was not the brother I thought he was. Could he smell Sesshōmaru?

I was never able to ask, for Sango pulled me back into another hug. "I'm so sorry. I wanted to go after you when I saw Kirara was alone, but more and more corpses were gathering and it would be too dangerous if we were all together. We figured you'd be safer by yourself than with us."

"N-No! No, it's okay. I mean, there was a whole horde of them on like several levels that tried to kill me, but…"

Sango moved back a step, leaning away so she could brush the bangs out of my face. I was sweating badly, covered in dirt and blood- both dry and fresh. I must look like a mess to them. Sango was smiling so warmly it got rid of all the words I was going to say.

Shippō spoke up from his spot on Miroku's arm. "How come you had such trouble getting here?" He asked, confused. "We didn't encounter any demons or undead on our way up here."

"They smell vitality," Miroku said, his eyebrows knitting together, "By all means they should have went after those of us that were in groups of two. How come they all went after you? Did Naraku somehow order them to-"

"Uh, actually I think it was…" I hesitated, catching everyone's attention. Inuyasha scowled, his ears twitching as his eyes once again flicked to the doorway behind me. He was really unnerved by their scents, wasn't he? I suppose I should tell them. "I think it was because there were three of us? I mean, a larger group to track and all that…"

Kagome looked dumbfounded. "Three of you? You mean you weren't alone? We were all up here, so how could you have-"

As if deciding now was the time to reveal himself, the silver-haired man known as Sesshōmaru entered the room. Kirara's fur stood on end when she saw him walk up behind me, the demon far too close for her liking, and she began to hiss. Sango's eyes widened immediately and she wasted no time in hoisting me up onto her shoulder, causing me to yelp as she suddenly jumped back closer to the rest of the group in an attempt to get away from him. The cat demon leaped down to the floor and transformed, snarling at the man.

Everyone else readied their weapons, Inuyasha pushing Kagome behind him as he unsheathed tetsusaiga. "Sesshōmaru!" The half-demon growled. "What are you doing here!?"

Were they seriously going to attack him? This is not okay. Nope. I wiggled my legs and struggled in Sango's grasp, the woman loosening her hold in surprise. She wasn't used to me resisting her protection. I ripped the mask off my face- leaving it to dangle around my neck- and I stumbled over to the full-blooded demon, alarmed and very much panicking. "W-Wait! Don't… Don't attack him! Please!? H-He was really nice and helped me get here!"

Sesshōmaru's golden eyes followed me as I made my way in front of him, watching as I held my hands out defensively as if to protect him. Which, admittedly, was a little ridiculous because he needed no one to shield him. I was just scared and, even now, I was struggling for oxygen.

"Nice?" Sango echoed, stunned. "You can't be serious."

Inuyasha scoffed at my words, unable to believe what he was seeing. "Get away from him, Irene! Sesshōmaru doesn't have the heart to be nice. All he has is a hollow where a heart should be! I bet he was gonna kill you once he got what he wanted."

"What?" I've seen Inuyasha angry before, but this was pure bitterness that was in his voice. He almost sounded afraid. "B-But… he protected me! The zombies were about to kill me when Sesshōmaru showed up! He… He saved me from several demons and dozens of undead! He isn't the bad guy, I promise!"

Sesshōmaru actually scoffed when he saw the way Inuyasha was looking at him. "So, little brother, this human woman is indeed your friend? I suspected as much."

My eyes went wide and I looked up at him. He knew all along? Was my hinting that obvious? How come he let me live? If he truly was related to Inuyasha and was the villain everyone painted him out to be, by all means I should not be alive right now. He seemed so tolerable of me, a human, so did he really hate him for being a half-demon? I didn't understand.

"What of it?" Inuyasha demanded, snapping at Sesshōmaru. He gripped the handle of tetsusaiga anxiously, ready to fight if need be yet clearly scared of this opponent. It was a completely different side to him. "You gonna kill her now? I don't know why, but you seem to have her brainwashed into thinking you're some kind of compassionate demon! How about you show her your true colors, huh?"

"T-True colors? What?" I'm so lost. Sesshōmaru stepped forward, pushing me back with his hand and out of his way. His hand reached for the other sword, the one I had yet to see him use. "So you are his older brother?"

Kagome nodded fervently. "Yes! He's the one we told you about- and he's ruthless! Get away from him while you can!"

"I…" I really didn't want to. I trusted Sesshōmaru. He scared me a little at first, but he's been so kind. He protected me, honoring the deal we made, and while there was nothing to be gained from freeing the souls of the dead he did it anyway. "I don't…"

I don't think he's a bad person.

"Irene." I snapped my head up, staring at Sesshomaru with wide eyes. It was the first time he called me by name. I hadn't even thought he remembered it. The demon wasn't looking at me, instead focusing his attention on Inuyasha and the others, watching them closely. The demon removed his hand from his sword, standing upright and narrowing his eyes. "You've completed your side of the bargain. You are no longer under my protection."

"Uh, o-okay?" That came out of nowhere. "D-Does that mean I should back away from you now or…?"

He glanced at me from the corner of his eyes before turning away. Sesshōmaru no longer appeared as if he were going to battle the others, sliding a foot forward to walk away. "Do what you will." He told me, moving ahead and stepping past the others. Inuyasha called out to him, demanding he turn back and fight him, but Sesshōmaru paid him no heed. "Jaken, let's go."

The imp yelped and hurried forward, not wanting to be left behind. "Y-Yes, Lord Sesshōmaru!"

FANDOM: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

EVENT: Flufftober 2020

PROMPT: Adopting a Pet Together

AUTHOR: @hopeswriting

RATING: G

PAIRING: TYL!Yamamoto/TYL!Hibari

SUMMARY:

Yamamoto brings Hibari to an animal shelter, and hopes it will cheer him up a little.

TAG WARNING: Implied/Reference Animal Death, Implied/Reference Animal Abuse

WORDS: 1415

“Good—good afternoon sirs.” The man takes even less than one look at Hibari and shifts his whole attention on a smiling Yamamoto. Not that Hibari is looking at him. He’s doing this thing where he’s scrutinizing the animal shelter while still definitely looking at him. “What can I help you with?”

“We just want to take a look,” Yamamoto says.

“Oh?” The relief is clear on his face at the prospect of having minimum interactions with them. “What about—” He glances at the stray cat in Hibari’s hands.

“No.” There’s a distinct lack of any emotions in Hibari’s voice, as distinct as the unmistakable shift in the air.

The man tenses even more, which Yamamoto didn’t think possible but he’s used to it by now. People just tend to surpass themselves around Hibari out of an overwhelming desire to not die.

Hissy nuzzles Hibari’s arm, unbothered, apparently already unaffected by the Hibari effect. That’s good, seeing as she’s most definitely coming back home with them.

“Sorry,” the man chokes out. He does meet Hibari’s eye, but maybe he’s just smart enough to not risk having him out of his sight. Not that it would change anything.

“Volunteer?” Hibari asks. Yamamoto glances at the badge pinned on his chest. Oh yeah, he is a volunteer. Poor guy.

“Yes, I’m—”

“How long?”

“Err, a long time?”

“This shelter is not up to standards, Herbivore.”

Yamamoto swallows a laugh at the dumbfounded look that crosses his face. But then it takes on an outraged expression, albeit his voice comes out shakily.

“Well sir, we’re not the ones you should be telling us that. All the employees here are doing the utmost best with the resources they’re given. These animals are cared for and loved and looked after with all of our heart. Of—of course it could be better, but we make a point to make sure they’re not unhappy at all. S-so—”

Hibari subtly straightens his back, and he quiets down. “Is that so?”

The man pales under Hiabri’s preying eyes. He swallows thickly, either subconsciously aware—or worse, very consciously aware of the threat building in the air.

Yamamoto takes pity at the sheer panicked look he gives him.

He steps closer to Hibari, slides his hand down his back to rest at the small of his back. “That’s good to know, sir. Isn’t it, Kyoya?” He brushes their shoulder together, ever so slightly.

“I suppose.” Hibari looks past the volunteer again, effectively dismissing him. “I’ll write you a check.”

“No way, I’ll do it.” Yamamoto swings him around to look at him eye to eye. “Out of my own money. For the animals, and as a proof of my love.” Hibari narrows his eyes, and he gives him his most serious, solemn expression. “Because I love you.”

“Disgusting. You’re lucky I didn’t train her yet.”

Yamamoto laughs when he shoves past him. He falls in steps behind him, hands in his pockets.

“Excuse-me sir? A—a check?”

“Uhm?” He turns back to the man, to the confused look on his face. “Oh yeah, you know, for the good of the animals.”

They’ve seen worse shelters by far. Maybe there are a little too many animals for a not big enough space in this one, but at first glance the place is clean, the cages too, and the animals look in good shape.

They’ll use the money right.

“I don’t know if… I’m allowed to…”

“Ah, I forgot.” He closes the distance, puts a hand on his shoulder. “We’ll come check in regularly, so make sure we’ll leave happy alright?” He smiles, wide and cold. He lowers his voice. “Or we’ll break you.”

Yamamoto goes on his merry way without looking back.

A grin quickly plasters itself on his face, and he devolves even quicker into using his baby voice. He waves at the cats, makes faces at bunnies and hamsters, and talks gibberish at every single one of them.

Barks and growls and meowing lead him to Hibari, crouched in front of a dog’s kennel.

Hissy is doing what she does best in the fifteen minutes Yamamoto knows her, that is hissing on all fours on Hibari’s knee. She’s all puffed out to make herself bigger, but is still nowhere near the dog’s size.

Hibari doesn’t even spare him a glance when he crouches beside him. He’s too busy giving praises and incentives and advice to both Hissy and Twilight, stroking Hissy alongside her back.

It does seem to spur the animals on, and Yamamoto wonders for the umpteenth time if Hibari actually mastered the animal language.

“Twilight too then?”

“We’re not calling her that.”

“And Chocolate too,” he adds, waving at the most adorable, chocolate brown puppy he has ever seen, in the kennel next to Twilight.

Hibari rolls his eyes, as if he wasn’t keeping his eye on the puppy all this time. He sneaks his fingers between the bars to stroke the fighting animals to a cease fire.

There’s a content and peaceful look on his face that warms Yamamoto’s heart, still sad and not a smile yet, but it’s the closer to happiness he’s seen him since weeks. His pants are dirty around his knees from when he knelt on the street until he won Hissy’s trust, and a burst of fondness overtakes him.

“Kiss?”

Hibari tilts his head without looking, and he plants a lingering kiss on his temple. He nuzzles his hair, and when Hibari tilts his head again, kisses his forehead.

They move on, go around the shelter back to the entrance. Yamamoto abruptly turns back before their last turn, and finds himself nose to nose with Hibari.

“You know what,” he laughs, not fooling anyone, “I think I want to see Twilight again.”

Hibari huffs. “I can hear them, I’m not deaf.”

“He was just so cute you know? We should go back the way we came.”

“You will move aside, Kitsune.”

Yamamoto bites his lip, but eventually and reluctantly lets him pass. He doesn’t move from his spot while Hibari strides the birds’ aisle.

This is too soon. Is this too soon? The others said it’d be too soon.

Well, Gokudera and Lambo did. Ryohei and Chrome thought it could help him move on, and Mukuro warned him it could go either way.

Tsuna gave a worrying “maybe”, but he didn’t get a bad feeling and his Hyper Intuition didn’t go off, so Yamamoto thought he could take the shot.

He tries to subtly get a feel of Cloud flames, but the way they snarl at him tells him he wasn’t so subtle.

“Kitsune.”

Yamamoto sighs and makes his way over. “I’m sorry Ky-chan, I’m just—”

“We’ll take this one too.”

The bird is busy eating, a beautiful white dove with black eyes and a black beak, a black collar at the nape of his neck. He doesn’t look anything like Hibird, but maybe that’s for the best.

“Are you sure? Please don’t feel like you have to become better quicker than it feels right because of me. I just—”

“Worry too much for nothing, as usual.”

“It’s not nothing,” Yamamoto says softly. He leans against him, and Hibari doesn’t move away. “Hug?”

There’s a beat of silence before Hibari puts Hissy down. There’s another beat where he strokes the top of her head before he stands back up, straight into Yamamoto’s arms.

He pretends to pull away, clicks his tongue. “Your perfume,” he says with impressive disdain in his voice.

Yamamoto laughs. “I know, I know, I’ll change it back.” He strokes the hair at the base of his neck, breathes in eagerly in their strawberry scent. “You know, Hibird isn’t in bird Heaven because he was your bird, but I’m sure he’s having the best time of his life in bird Hell.”

Hibari huffs a laugh, but then actually chuckles, low and husky at the back of his throat, his shoulders shaking. Yamamoto grins ear to ear, and pulls back to take in his happy face, the gleam in his eyes and the white of his teeth peeking through.

“Obviously, who do you think he was?”

“The best,” he says, bumping their foreheads together. “How should we call this little one?”

Hibari hums, shifting his head to look at the dove. “Blade.”

Yamamoto snorts, holds back his laugh as best he can, that is badly. “Terrible name.”

Hibari shuts him up with a biting kiss, and he’s happy to let him.

BONUS:

This is TYL but in a TYL!Verse where Byakuran isn’t trying to take over the world because, you know, they dealt with that.

Takeshi and Kyoya got together, err, at some point??? Not when they were teens in any case. Somewhere between after high school/reaching adulthood and when they hit 24/26 years old.

They got together because??? Not out of some lingering feelings from when they were teens in any case, of from a sudden realization of how the other is boyfriend material lol.

And Hibari’s type definitely includes “high battle skills” but he’s in it for other things too.

------

Maybe Takeshi was the one he used as intermediary to stay in touch with the other Guardians/Tsuna/the family business because he’s the one he tolerates the most.

Maybe Takeshi was the one Tsuna sent the most in mission with Hibari because he’s the one most successful to deal with Hibari being Hibari without it ending in a fight.

And maybe they learn to actually enjoy each other company instead of just tolerating/putting up with the other. And maybe they start hanging out with the other outside of family business.

And maybe they learn to appreciate the way they balance each other, and the way they make each other better, and the way they can deal with the other at their worst without, like, not allowing the other to be at their worst, you know? (Probably not lol.)

Yeah, something like that, that sounds nice.

------

Anyway, they’re together since a year or two here?

And Hibird died because??? Not some horrible death like a mafiosi wanting to take revenge on Hiabri or something anyway. Idk guys, birds just die sometimes.

So Hibird died and Hibari is sad. And he’s not going on a rampage because he’s 26 and learned how to deal with his emotions like a functioning adult. Well, as much as a functioning adult Hibari can become lol.

He does get more vicious and merciless in his missions. And more cold and with an even shorter patience when dealing with the others Guardians. And demands more alone time too.

And it’s been weeks like that, and Takeshi wants to give him back some happiness. He thinks maybe adopting a new pet would do him some good.

------

The actual, full pet names Hibari uses for Takeshi is Ao Kitsune (Blue Fox), for obvious reasons and also we’re not gonna talk about my poor tastes in pet names.

But only when he feels particularly proud because Takeshi’s messing with someone, or turned on because he’s being particularly serious in a fight, or mad but while still being in a loving mood.

Otherwise Kitsune it is (including in bed, yeah you didn’t ask but now you know lol).

Takeshi calls him Ky-chan, and we’re still not gonna talk about my lack of skills in choosing pet names. Kyoya isn’t much up to public display of affection tho, so it’s only when it’s just the two of them.

And it’s just Kyoya like, 80% of the time anyway because they both prefer it that way.

------

Hibari wants to call the dove Blade because white feathers, sword, Takeshi’s favored weapon, all that. It’s his way of saying thank you and showing how he appreciates what he did, and Takeshi knows it.

They do end up adopting all three animals, and all three names stay. Also no, we’re not going to talk either about how much worse I am at just naming things lmao.

Thank you for reading! Any and all review are appreciated ^^.
