#so yeah i think about yuu angst a lot

Happy Holidays! I’ve been on a bit of an angst fix lately, so if you don’t mind, I’m going to brainrot in your inbox about it.
I’ve been thinking about a scenario where Yuu just finally snaps. I mean, an entire school year of being trapped in a foreign world with no certain hope of seeing your family again, being forced to contend with (at least) 7 life-or-death scenarios, the massive egos these teenage boys have, and probably at least a little bullying from the NRC students for being magicless. I mean come on, I love our boys and all, but a lot of them are kind of awful people. There’s no way a regular person’s mental health survives that.
And maybe Yuu, tired of it all, packs up what little they have and leaves. Surely their prospects couldn’t get any worse than at NRC. Maybe Yuu tries their luck at RSA in finding someone to help them go home. Maybe Yuu just wanders until they find somewhere where they can be something. Would they even leave a letter behind explaining what happened to them, or would they just assume no one would care anyway?
I just want some more Yuu angst lol
Do you have any thoughts on this?
Happy Holidays to you too annon! Everyone is welcome to brainrot in my inbox, especially about Yuu. And I do have some 「(ーヘー;) but I might be a bit nicer to the NRC boys than they deserve.
notes: they/them used for Yuu, more fleshed out fic can be found on my masterlist here. SPOILERS FOR UNRELEASED CH 7 CONTENT. CW for abandonment issues, ptsd, bullying, and just general ignorance on the part of the OB boys. Heavy on the angst, this is a mega oof tm of a post.
Tumblr media
I want to start off by saying that, in my personal opinion based off of the in game voicelines and vignettes, that the various NRC boys do like Yuu and enjoy having them around. They think of them as the same of any other freshmen student at NRC, which is sort of the problem.
The average NRC freshmen has magic, a dormitory with a housewarden responsible for "guiding" them, and a family they can fall back on if things get rough. The average student has a basic understanding of the history of the world they live in, of it's pop culture, it's food, it's clothes, and a bunch of other things that they might not think about because of how ingrained it is in their very being. Yuu has none of those things. They don't even have a cannon club which I think is more meant to allow players to have head cannons, but since we are talking angst I have wondered if since Yuu and Grim are one student, any club Yuu wanted to join would have to take Grim as well and no one wanted to deal with that. So Grim started his own "club" and Yuu just takes pictures of birthday celebrations and events they aren't able to fully participate in for the school at Crowley's request.
Ace's first reaction to Yuu is to bully them for not having magic. Deuce admits to having done the same thing as when he was a child, and is very embarrassed by it. We don't really see Yuu getting outright bullied outside of this, but given how the faceless students reacted to Deuce being excited for Starsending, yeah I think Yuu has had to deal with some bullying. And while I do think Adeuce (and the rest of Heartslabyul really) would stick up for them, it wouldn't make it stop. If anything it just gets sneakier and Yuu, not wanting to cause any problems, does their best to cover it up. Something about keeping a stiff upper lip or a smile better suiting a hero and all that.
The overblots is a whole separate issue. We get two real apologies, one from Riddle and one from Vil, who again do not take Yuu being magicless in to much thought. They think of Yuu highly! They are a housewarden of their own little dorm! And they take such good care of Grim and the others, not to mention all those overblots you survived! Not many mages can claim that but you can! What could you possibly have to be stressed about?
As if that isn't the entire problem. As if anyone understands where Yuu is coming from. As if they even would care if they did.
They might be just as capable as any other freshmen, but when school ends, hell even when it goes on a break, they have no where to go. They were stripped from their friends, family, and especially their belongings, including money and autonomy! I have some thoughts about my own Yuu wanting to be nurse in her world, but given how much of even basic medical care seems to rely on magic in Twisted Wonderland I wonder if that would even be a career path any magicless person could take. We know a lot of them work at Styx because they don't risk blot accumulation, but even cooking is done with magic (if it can be) in Twisted Wonderland! How would you feel if you had your heart set on being a doctor, worked really hard to get good grades and took up a part time job to save for college/university only to be transported to a different world with different laws of physics completely against your will. A world where all that hard work is meaningless and you might not be able to accomplish those dreams of yours. And! AND AND! If you get upset about it, that will be seen as a weakness on your part and no one will care.
Because hey, they had to work for what they have. Why can't you? They didn't ask to be born with magic (even though they would have probably) so there is no use crying about things you can't change. Ruggie and Jamil do seem to feel a bit of sympathy to Yuu's plight, but neither of them think twice about exploiting Yuu for their own gain. Sure it might be unfair, but life is in general! It's not their fault, they aren't to blame. And that's really how all of NRC sees it, they aren't to blame for Yuu's circumstances, so they aren't owed any special treatment.
How Yuu snaps and what they do because of it would really come down to how you hc your Yuu to be. My own personal thoughts come back to personal autonomy a lot; I don't think Yuu has much of it and that would grate on me constantly. I could see Yuu hearing their friends talk about their plans for the future, and though Ace and especially Deuce try to include them in the conversation they can't add much. Ace applauds them, says "we need to take things easy! We're still freshmen..." and drones on about how he just wants to enjoy school life. And maybe Yuu does too, but they have no concrete answer about whether or not they can get home. They don't have the support system that their classmates do, so there really isn't anything waiting for them after the school year ends. Yuu feels so helpless, and they don't have the words to explain how they feel, because how could they?
If Malleus's overblot ends without any real repercussions (which I doubt it will but hey, I am like 65/35 on whether or not he apologizes to Yuu specifically for almost killing them I will be so pissed if he doesn't) I could see everyone else making fun of Malleus for loosing while Yuu just. Stares off into the distance, trying really hard not to cry in front of people they are convinced will make fun of them. This has all been scary, things like this just aren't possible in their world and they aren't mentally prepared to face death again.
And they are convinced they will. You can say overblots are rare all you like, but Yuu has practically seen one once a month ever since they arrived in this world. It is normal to them, and who should they trust? The lying headmaster or their lying eyes and ears?
If Yuu decides to run away, I think that the Ramshackle ghosts might try to stop them. Sure the headmaster sucks, but your ghost buddies really love you! And want to support you in anyway they can, so does Grim! He wants to be together for the next 100 years, and while he does really want to stay at NRC so he can be the world's greatest mage... I think he might love Yuu more. Just a tiny bit. He would play it off as him being too good for the school, or that he and Yuu are only one student after all so he will be expelled... but really he wants to come with because he will be worried about Yuu.
While going to RSA does sound nice on paper, Yuu doesn't really have a reason to go there. They aren't exactly on first name basis with any of the students we've met so far, and there is always the risk of Che'nya snitching to Riddle and Trey. Better to try and find a place where they can be something and maybe send letters to all the magical academies they can get contact information for to see if they can help. And also, to see if they will accept Grim as a full student, got to make sure he isn't sacrificing his dream for nothing!
The ghosts, realizing they can't convince Yuu not to leave decide to help. They already sell things at the markets downtown, so maybe they chat with some of their clients and convince them to let Yuu rent a room for a while. You have the option in Portfest to mention you have been to Craneport before, and I like the thought of Yuu having a part time job there. Maybe the ghosts explain that Yuu has no real family to go back to and Yuu's part time employer agrees to give them a full time job while Yuu figures out where they want to go.
Another thing related to personal autonomy, Yuu wouldn't have government documents if they just got isekaid out of the blue. I could see that being a huge issue for traveling to different countries and trying to establish a life. I also wonder if Crowley even did anything about that... but assuming he did since he (allegedly) talked to the school board about what to do with Yuu I think the ghosts would get them for Yuu on the condition they still come visit sometimes.
As for the note, I think Yuu would leave one simply because they feel like they didn't have the words to explain themselves out loud. And because they don't want to face the fight they know will come where everyone tells them to just suck it up and get on with it. These are teenage boys they are dealing with, their brains just can't fully comprehend the situation Yuu is in and they have given up expecting them to.
Just so we're clear, I think this would devastate Ace and Deuce, maybe to the point of destroying their friendship, at least for a while. Ace does think about Yuu not having magic, he wants to protect them. He says so when you level him to max, that protecting you will be easy, but clearly it wasn't. Clearly he failed you, and what does Ace do when he feels bad? He takes it out on everyone else and in this case especially Deuce. Deuce just feels stupid, which he already does a lot, but he really saw you as being around for the rest of his life. And now you aren't, and not for a happy reason like you got to go home. You aren't there because they failed you.
The others are a bit of a mixed bag I could do a separate post about but to hit the other big one...
I have no real idea how Malleus would react. I can see him thinking this means Yuu is afraid of him now, which I don't think he would react well to, but assuming this is post ob then he might be willing to take responsibility for it. It would certainly make him think, but how that thought would manifest? Outside of the obvious weather changes I do not know. I could see him being slightly resentful to his mother for cursing him to be hated by humans and loved only by fae when he so desperately wanted to be loved by one specific human. They were his first real friend, and he didn't treasure them in a way they found meaningful.
idk Yuu dropping off the grid isn't something I can see Crowley letting happen, but I can see why Yuu would want to try.

R.R | RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS:
About: Riddle's Rose
"Rose? I see you've met that troublesome intern at the library. That's a nickname. Their name is (Y/N) and yes, they are my partner." "A-Ah? I'm so direct? Well, you asked me a question! Though...I would prefer that this discussion end here. I prefer to keep my relationship with them private.”
Chat: Childhood Memories
“Ever since we were young, (Y/N) was quite rebellious. The complete opposite of me as a child, really. They were always sneaking off during the night and coming over to visit me. Mother...didn't approve of them and often screamed in their face. I was quite terrified she would scare them away, though that didn't stop them at all. Haha, I think they got even more persistent afterwards. I am truly glad I met them.”
Personal Story: To the Hospital
“Again...? I see. Thank you, Trey. Hmph, I'll have to schedule another visit once more."
> "Riddle? What's wrong?"
"Ah, Yuuken—It's Rose. They've gotten admitted to the hospital...again. (Y/N) is quite impulsive and tends to bite off more than they can chew. On more than occasion, like now, I would find out about their hospital admissions via Trey days or even weeks after."
>"Aren't you dating? Why aren't they telling you?"
"They claim that they withhold the information from me out of concern for my workload or out of fear of being a burden. Though that is—a sentiment I don't understand. Nothing is more important to me than their health."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
R.B | RUGGIE BUCCHI
About: The Photo In His Wallet
"Where is it?! Man, I'm so fucked if I lost it—Oh?! Oi, Yuuken! That wallet's mine! Man, thanks a lot. I really would've been screwed over if it weren't for you." "Eh? The photo? Shishishishi curious, aren't cha? Hmmm...how 'bout this? You get me a steaming hot meat bun and I'll give you a story time about them."
Chat: A Hopeful Future
"My studies? Course I take them seriously! That's what's gonna' put food on the table one day. Plus, I wanna' give (Y/N) the life they deserve—What'd I mean? Well, if I'm going to be their husband, I want 'em to live comfortably. It's not like we need anythin' luxurious, anyways. As long as we're together and there's enough food to go by, it's going to be all right."
Personal Story: In Sickness and In Health
"....that's good to hear. Please look after 'em, granny. Love ya." The call ends and Ruggie sighs. "That's the best news I've received since."
>"News?"
"Guh-?! Man! What's with you and sneaking up on me!? Yeah yeah—you heard right...news. Granny just called me to talk about (Y/N), their health is looking up. Tell ya' what, I knew that deal with Azul was worth it. I managed to snag some medicine and send it home."
>"Oh? Medicine?"
"Yeah. Ever since my first year of high school, they were sick and bedridden. (Y/N)'s parents don't have enough money for a doctor, so there's not much they can do. Of course, I'm out here doin' my best to help too."
"I really...I really wanna see them up and runnin' again. Hey, who knows—maybe we'll get to make flower crowns for the village kids again...together."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A.A | AZUL ASHENGROTTO
About: An Interrogation
"Yuuken, you’ve met (Y/N), I hear. Well, as their partner, it's only right that I ask you about it. I assume you don't mind. So, what is your opinion of them? Nothing short of perfection, I hope."
"Hm? You think they're nice? Good then."
Chat: Busy Octoboss
"With all the deals, my maintenance of my academic ranking, and my position as Monstro Lounge's manager, my workload is quite substantial compared to most. And, I regret to say that it does get in the way of my personal life, including quality time with my lover. It tears at my heart, yet I cherish how they're so understanding and patient. Still, sometimes I can't help but think I am undeserving of them..."
Personal Story: Deep Sea Bonds
"My childhood is not something that I appreciate or want to remember. Yet, despite everything I've been through, I do think it is pleasant to look back on the days when I met them. You see, (Y/N) was bullied too. They were just like me, relentlessly bad mouthed and hurt by the kids around us. However, they never failed to greet me every day with a bright smile on their face."
>"What a sunny person."
"They'd also always have the courage and bravery to stand up for me, often taking the brunt of the bullying. I wish I could say I did the same for them...but I was far too cowardly back then..."
>"Wow. You two must be really close, then."
"Of course. They've been through a lot.Which is exactly why I won't allow anyone to speak ill of them anymore." Azul pauses, smiling slyly. "Say, Yuuken. You'll tell me if anyone casts aspersions on my Angelfish, won't you?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
J.L | JADE LEECH
About: A Helping Hand
"Hm? What's that? Ah, you’ve met my darling pearl. I see. I do notice how you’ve been frequenting Monstro Lounge lately…Have you perhaps acquired a romantic interest towards them? No? Hehe, Alright." "Now, to answer your question, yes, that is right; (Y/N) routinely comes over to visit and aid me in my Mountain Treks. I couldn't be more grateful for their assistance."
Chat: The Pearl Ring
"Oya? I see you're curious about the ring I've been crafting. Well, it's for (Y/N). You see, in merfolk culture, we create handcrafted jewelry to serve as a courting gift. This is one of many ornaments I plan on giving them. Though, this one is...particularly unique. Ah, well...(Y/N) Leech does have a nice ring to it, does it not?"
Personal Story: A Jaded Reaction
"Oya? (Y/N) is spending the night at Ramshackle? Whatever reason for?"
>"Grim wanted to have a game night."
"Ah. I see. How...lovely. What's that? My smile is frightening you? Oho, now is it? Hehe, my deepest apologies. We eels tend to be quite...protective. I so anticipate you to take good care of them. And fret not, as long as you keep them away from any harm, no disputes shall arise."
>"Uh...and if something happened?"
"What if something happened...? Well, I'm sure you wouldn't mind being hunted down the face of the earth, tied up, and pulled down to the deepest pits of the blue ocean, where no one can hear your anguished cries for help...Would you?" 
>"..."
"Just joking. I would never do that."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
F.L | FLOYD LEECH
About: A Sea Walnut
"(Y/N)? Aha~~~ You've heard of my little sea walnut? They're so adorable and squishy, yanno!—Is there a problem? If you got a problem with 'em, I'll squeeze you." "Oh? Not scared at all, huh? Ehe~ You sure are ballsy. Tread carefully now, shrimpy~!"
About: Ocean Currents
"Whenever a strong ocean current comes, sea walnut always huddles close to me and grabs my arm. They've always been afraid of being blasted away."
"They used to do that a lot when we were kids, but it never gets old. Hehe~ Sometimes, I lead them to places where the waves are strong, jus' so they can cling onto me! It's so funny to see 'em get afraid and scramble after me when I move too far away. "
Personal Story: Shark Attack
"Hmm~? Oh, what're these bite marks? Rad, aren't they? I got them after fighting a buncha' sharks."
>"Sharks?! Why would you do that?"
"To get these. It's shark teeth. Our anniversary is comin' up, and Jade suggested that I should make some jewelry for them. It's a merfolk courting thing. Azul 'n Jade told me to get them pearls, but I thought that was boring. So, I'm making one with shark teeth instead! Isn't that cool~?"
>"I-I guess, but what happened to the sharks?"
"Ugh. None of them were a fun hunt. The entire hoard swam away so fast. Can you believe it???… I’m not the typa eel who would let my prey get away that easily, though. And it’s not like I had anything better to do. Ehehe! There were so many of those sharks swarming around, but I managed to squeeze them all! Well, it was worth it in the end cuz I got what I wanted. I'll do anythin' for my little sea walnut~"

J.V | JAMIL VIPER
About: A Hearty Meal
“What am i doing? Well, I'm making some Roast Chicken with Sumac Flatbread. Oh? Who's (Y/N)? Ah, Kalim must have told you, huh. (Y/N) is my partner. They are truly wonderful."
"For example—Though I like to think I'm skilled at disguising my true feelings, the moment I go to see them, they already know what I'm thinking. They have a keen sense of intuition and always seem to know what I need and when I need it. Truly, I'm grateful for such a caring—Ah, I'm sorry. I was rambling again."
Chat: Snake-Eyed Envy
"I can't dispute that a lot of people back home are vying for their affection.That bothers me at times. As Kalim's babysitter-ehem, retainer, I don't have enough time to check in on them every day...However, as cheesy as it sounds, I have yet to meet someone who is as smitten with (Y/N) as I am."
Personal Story: World Left Unsaid
"I soon understood that I was more than the circumstances of my birth, all thanks to (Y/N). In fact, My bond with Kalim has become stronger and more genuine thanks to them. I...realized my hatred for Kalim was just my desire for my circumstances to be different...I didn't hate him at all. Without (Y/N), I would never have understood it."
>"They must be very important to you, Jamil."
"Absolutely. I was terrified that I might lose them after my overblot. But to my surprise, they stayed with me. Naturally, it hurt them, but they were really compassionate towards me and about how much I had to go through."
>"Do they know of what you feel?"
"I...I don't think (Y/N) realizes just how much I cherish them. I don't think now's the right time for that though. I've hurt them too much and I still have a long way to go before I fix things."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
M.D | MALLEUS DRACONIA
About: He's Engaged?!
"I am, indeed, betrothed. Heh. Why are you looking so bewildered, Child of Man? If I'm going to be a king someday, it only makes sense that I would need someone to reign alongside me, no? At first glance, (Y/N) may seem aloof, but as you get to know them more, you'll see that they are actually incredibly lovely and warm."
"You never thought I was one for romance? My, my... What a bold statement, you best learn how to hold your tongue. Have you considered that I could use lightning to smite you where you stand?...Now, now—That was a joke. You don't have to cower in fear."
Chat: Safe And Sound
"My precious treasure tells me that I tend to get protective at times. Though can you really fault a lover for wanting to protect the one who is most important to them in this cruel, ruthless world. One where others will not hesitate to turn on you?"
Personal Story: The Art Of War
"I am actually the first of my lineage to wed someone who is not a noble. You see, (Y/N) is a knight-in-training. And, as you can probably guess, they served as my retainer. To see them at work was truly a magnificent sight to witness. They command attention and radiate strength. While I had always admired them, I could not bring myself to express my true feelings to them. Until...that night."
>"That night?"
"Yes. On the evening of Silver's 16th birthday, someone had rushed at me with a dagger in hand. (Y/N) was the first to respond and took the hit for me...The sound of their screams as the knife tore through their flesh was truly...horrifying."
>"That's horrible! What happened to the guy?"
"Worry not, he was taken care of accordingly....If there is anything I’ve learned from Lilia's many teachings, it’s that the worst calamities that befall an army arise from hesitation. To avoid further offensives, one must deal with and eliminate adversaries as soon as possible. Don't you think so?"

👀 Was That a Kiss? (Malleus x Reader)
Fluff and angst with a happy ending, reader is Yuu (gender neutral), reader is fat but it's only one of their insecurities, also reader is very hairy and lgbt+ because I'm projecting
Content Warning: misunderstandings, Yuu being confident but then boom insecurity, nonconsensual kiss but everyone participating likes it, self blame and hate (Yuu), Yuu freaking out about upsetting Malleus, Malleus kisses with his eyes open
"You know, Malleus likes you, right?" Lilia's face suddenly appears, floating in front of the human.
Yuu stops walking and stares at Lilia for a beat before replying. "Uh, first of all good morning. Secondly, what?"
Lilia chuckles before shifting upright. "Malleus Draconia, heir to the throne of Briar Valley, one of the most powerful mages in all of Twisted Wonderland, likes you."
Yuu blinks. "He... likes me?"
"Very much, and it's very obvious."
"Oh."
Lilia laughs. "Now run along, we don't want our dear prefect to be late for class, do we?"
"Ah- right!" Yuu looks to their watch then starts speed walking down the hallway. "Thank you!"
-----------
Malleus likes them. Malleus likes them. This replays in Yuu's mind again and again as Yuu tries to make sense of it. Look at them, on their best days they're lucky to be mediocre. They're fat but in all the wrong places and covered in hair from head to toe. But, Yuu tries to remember that they may not find themselves attractive, but that doesn't mean others don't. And this is a different world! Standards have to be at least a little bit different here. Plus, Yuu has lots of good qualities outside of looks! At least, they think they're good qualities. And Malleus visits them at night regularly, so he must enjoy their company at least somewhat. He has to. So, yeah, is it highly improbable for Malleus to like them? Absolutely! But that doesn't mean impossible. Yuu looks down at the book they're supposed to be paying attention to during the lecture, but the only thing that catches their eye is a photo of the ruins of an old building with a statue that looks like a gargoyle.
Yuu walks into the cafeteria with Grim tailing behind them. Usually, they'd sit with Ace and Deuce, but apparently they did something stupid again and Riddle had them doing some kind of chore as punishment. Yuu looks over the dining hall, plate in hand, until they spot a familiar quartet of Diasomnia students.
"Hey, can I sit with y'all today?" Yuu walks up and asks.
"Ah, child of man." Malleus gestures to the spot next to him. "It would be our pleasure for you to join us."
(Seating: Yuu, Malleus, Sebek on one side, and Grim, Lilia, and Silver on the other)
The lunch seems fine with Lilia keeping Silver from falling asleep in his food and Yuu keeping Grim from stealing food from plates. Everything is fine, until Malleus offers a bite of his food, holding the fork up for Yuu. Yuu gladly takes a bite and offers some of their own. When Malleus goes to take a bite, Yuu pulls the fork away with a giggle. Malleus chuckles as well and leans down further. Yuu is going to go for it. Don't think. Do it. Yuu leans in and plants a kiss on Malleus's cheek, right on the corner of his lips.
They giggle as they pull away but then go silent as they hear a scream from the other side of Malleus. "YOU FOUL HUMAN!" Sebek stands. "HOW DARE YOU PLACE YOUR LIPS ON THE YOUNG MASTER!" Yuu looks with a raised eyebrow to Sebek then looks to Malleus. The dragon fae's eyes are blown wide as he stares off into nothing. He touches his cheek and shifts his gaze to Yuu. Shock? Confusion? Disgust? Yuu can't place the look on Malleus's face, but he doesn't look happy.
"Oh, I thought you- I- I'm sorry." Yuu's face drops as they scramble to their feet. "I'm so sorry."
Before anyone else can react, Yuu runs out of the cafeteria. They're so stupid. Yuu stepped over so many boundaries, but Lilia said Malleus likes them! How could... Yuu runs faster. They're so FUCKING STUPID! Lilia said "like" and nothing else. They're fae, not human. They have a completely different culture. Of course words have different connotations! Someone like Malleus would never like them like that. Malleus is so intelligent, so skilled, so beautiful. They never had a chance. And now they fucked everything up. Yuu was fine just being friends with Malleus. Yes, their heart would ache, but that's nothing new. And now they'll lose one of the closest friends because they were an idiot that actually thought he liked them.
Doors slam open as Yuu runs into the onslaught of rain. They stop on the cobblestone, tears falling alongside the rainfall. Thunder claps. Malleus will never want to see them again. They continue walking as they take their time to steady their breathing. Yuu left Grim in that mess. They're really a shit friend, aren't they? At least Grim will enjoy the remnants of their lunch, and the little furball is strong enough to carry their bag to the next class. Yuu looks to their watch. They got time to get back to Ramshackle, change into their only other uniform, grab an umbrella, and meet Grim at their next class. They just gotta keep it together.
"HUMAN! HALT!" Yuu turns around to see Sebek running up to them with an open umbrella, trying to shield the the human from the rain.
"Oh uh, thank you, but I'm already soaked." Yuu holds up their hand and pushes the umbrella to Sebek. "It'd be better used by you, and don't worry. I'm going to apologize to Malleus. Well, if he still even willing to see me."
"Wh- Yes, your actions were inappropriate- I mean- AGH! I am here to APOLOGIZE to YOU!" Sebek pushes the umbrella back to cover Yuu again.
Yuu sighs and keeps walking. "Why? You had every right to call me out. Just look-" They gesture to the thunderstorm. "I did something stupid and hurt Malleus. Now he's pissed and will never want to talk to me again, and he has every right to. I actually thought- When Lilia said Malleus liked me, I actually believed he meant romantically. How can I be so stupid."
"Many humans are stupid, but you are not." Sebek tries to explain. "The Young Master-"
"Has every right to hate me!" Yuu shouts as they enter the Ramshackle Dorm's yard. Their tears refuse to stop flowing. "I crossed a boundary and betrayed his trust. I kissed him without his consent because I was dumb enough to think he'd actually liked me. Out of all the people I know, I'm surprised you aren't beating me to a pulp. Did you see his face? The way looked at me? I'm used to surprising him, but that- I've never seen him look at me like that before. So go ahead and just hit me already. I deserve it."
Sebek gasps. "I WILL NOT HIT YOU! And the benevolent Young Master is not angry with you."
Yuu turns to face Sebek and gestures to the rain again. Thunder claps in the distance. "I'm just- I'm gonna go to my room and dry off. If Malleus is willing to see me still, I'll apologize tomorrow. I don't think I can actually talk to him right now without crying, and I shouldn't be the one crying. He must hate me now. I betrayed his trust. I hurt him."
"Is that what you think, Child of Man?"
Yuu spins around, seeing Malleus at Ramshackle's doorstep.
"Is that the reason you ran away?" Malleus asks.
"Mal- Fuck." Yuu tries to wipe the tears from their face. "I'm so sorry. I thought- I was dumb. I misunderstood what Lilia told me. I'm so sorry."
Malleus steps towards the human, and, with a flick of his wrist, the rain is blocked by an invisible force above them. "What did he tell you?"
"He..." Yuu hesitates and looks tonthe ground. "He said you liked me, but I thought- Where I'm from, that usually means romantically. I thought- I'm so stupid. Kissing someone without asking first is so wrong. I'm so sorry.
"Sebek."
Sebek's posture straightens. "Yes, Young Master?"
"Leave us." Malleus reaches his hand forward, placing the knuckle of his index finger under Yuu's chin. "I wish to speak with them alone."
"Yes, Young Master!" Sebek quickly rushes away.
"If you never want to see me, I completely understand."
"You think what you've done has made me hate you?" Malleus steps closer.
"I- If you don't then-" Yuu pauses. "If you're still willing to hang out with me, I will do whatever it takes to earn your trust back. But, if you don't, I'll... I'll leave you alone."
"You truly think you have wronged me, and I am afraid I cannot persuade you otherwise." Malleus rests his hand under Yuu's chin, tilting it up to look at him.
"What I did isn't okay." Yuu tries wiping the tears from their eyes.
"If wronged you, would you consider our circumstances even?"
"Wha- But you haven't wro-" Yuu freezes, eyes wide, as they feel soft lips against their own. Malleus's eyes stare into human's, waiting to see them react. Yuu closes their eyes, tears falling faster as they wrap their arms around Malleus's neck. In turn, Malleus deepens the kiss and wraps his arms around their waist. When Yuu pulls away to breathe, Malleus catches their lips again. It takes a while until finally they pull away from each other.
"Engaging in a kiss without permission. That is how you wronged me, correct?" Malleus hums.
"Y-yes."
"And now I have done the same for you." Malleus kisses them. "And now I've done it again. It seems you must wrong me again to make things fair between us."
Yuu chuckles, smiling as they wipe away their tears one more time. "You're such a dork."
"But now you are smiling."
"I- Yeah, I am." Yuu kisses Malleus again. "Thank you."

"I think you're really pretty. Will you go out with me?" That was the first thing he's ever said to her. And needless to say, Amari Chiyo was not impressed. So as promised, Nishinoya Yuu will get to know her better and confess again. And again. And again. And again. It'll take 6 years and 9 confessions, but he'll get there. Eventually.
⌦ content: fluff, light angst, love at first sight, friends to lover, slice of life
⌦ note: you are free to insert yourself into Chiyo, just keep in mind she has her own character/backstory. i know some people don't like that, so just a heads-up.

Tumblr media
The sixth time he confessed was probably the best day of Nishinoya’s life — on their first ‘date’ almost a year later.
Early that afternoon, Nishinoya stood with his hands shoved stiffly into his pockets, swaying gently with the movements of the bus. It wasn’t his idea to come out today, but when Chiyo came knocking on his door, dressed in perhaps the cutest outfit he’s ever seen, how could he say no?
If it were up to him he would've spent the entire weekend practicing volleyball receives, be it with a wall or a local team. He had no plans to do anything else after their most recent loss against Aoba Johsai in the Interhighs. But there he was, on his way to the shopping district. For what purpose though, he wasn’t quite sure.
He glanced at Chiyo, who looked down at her phone, presumably to check the time. Her long hair was tied into a neat ponytail, which has since been dyed red, a result of her off-handedly mentioning how she wanted to try coloring her hair one day. Hotaru and Kaito took it seriously and after a lot of pestering, Chiyo finally agreed to let them use the drugstore box dye on her. Of course, Nishinoya was all for it. He was the one who helped them buy it after all. As he expected, the deepred suited her well, but to his surprise, she actually decided to keep and maintain it. 
His eyes then trailed down to the flowy sundress and white tote she carried. Over the few years he’s gotten to know her, Nishinoya learned that she preferred to dress simple. Especially on days when she had a mountain load of housework. It wasn’t often he got to see Chiyo in anything aside from their usual school uniforms or a plain t-shirt and shorts. 
Nishinoya then noticed about six or seven bandages wrapped around her fingers and his brows furrowed. He didn’t remember seeing them the last time they met, which was less than two days ago.
“Wait, Chiyo.”
“Hm?” She glanced over as he took her hand. 
“What happened?” He asked, tracing his thumb over the outline of the bandages. “Did you hurt yourself?”
“Y-Yeah!” With her cheeks dusted pink, Chiyo quickly hid her hand behind her back and averted her eyes. “I dropped… erm, a plate! Yeah, I dropped a plate and cut myself by accident.”
“Oh,” Nishinoya blinked. He took a peek at her other hand, only to find it in the same state. Chiyo must’ve felt him stare a little too long because she soon hid that one behind her back too.
She pressed her lips together. “I’m fine, really,” she met his gaze. “Don’t worry about it.”
Nishinoya raised an eyebrow. He found it hard to believe that she of all people was clumsy enough to try and clean up broken ceramic with her bare hands. But alas, her doe eyes and reassuring voice got the better of him.
“Alright, if you say so,” he huffed. “But just in case, you know if you can always ask me for help, yeah?”
Chiyo breathed a sigh of relief.
“Of course,” she nodded, a faint smile tugging at her lips.
Tumblr media
Nishinoya had no idea what the day’s schedule looked like. So one could only imagine his surprise when Chiyo led him to the movie theater and pulled out two tickets for the latest superhero movie.
“I got them from my boss,” Chiyo explained. “She said she watched the movie with her grandkids and they seemed to like it. So she thought I would too. You know, as a bonus for being a good employee,” she paused. “Or did you not want to see it? We can always watch something else if you want-”
Nishinoya shook his head. “No, no! This is perfect,” he took one of the two tickets for closer inspection. “Ryu was talking about how good this movie is the other day, so I’ve been meaning to see it. I guess I just didn’t see you as a movie-goer type.”
“What do you mean?” Chiyo gave him a weird look. “We watch movies at home all the time.”
“Yeah but those are DVDs. I didn’t think you’d like to actually watch them in theaters, since they can be kinda expensive.”
“I don’t,” she shrugged. “But these were free, and every once in a while the theaters can be a good experience,” she handed her ticket to the usher. “Besides, seeing movies on the big screen is a completely different experience than at home on TV.”
“Right? It’s way cooler,” Nishinoya handed his ticket in before hurrying to catch up with her, only to pause when he noticed the concession stand on the way to the screening rooms. “Oh! Do we have time to grab a bucket of popcorn? My treat!”
Chiyo nodded. “I’ll buy us some drinks then,” she reached into her tote for her wallet. “You want Sprite?”
He gave her a big grin and thumbs up. “You know it!”
Tumblr media
“Man, that movie was great,” Nishinoya said between bites of his shaved ice.
“It really was!” Chiyo clasped her hands together. “Rhea’s last line was especially awesome! So heartfelt and romantic!”
“Rhea?” Nishinoya cocked his head to the side. “Who was that?”
Chiyo gave him a blank look. “The love interest, Yuu. She was literally the second most important character in the entire movie.”
“Oh yeah. Anyways, you know what was super awesome? That car chase scene!” He pointed at her, eyes twinkling. “The way Justin was swerving around on the streets while the protagonist shot that giant rocket launcher at the bad guys? Man, that was awesome!”
“Yeah, I know. You were yelling the entire time,” Chiyo said dryly. “You know, that’s fine when we’re at home and everything. But you probably shouldn’t do that when we’re out in public. People in the theater were giving you dirty looks.”
“Were they?”
Chiyo sighed. “Just… try to be more mindful of others, okay?”
Nishinoya nodded, scoping another spoonful of shaved ice into his mouth. “Mm, this is really good. You want some?”
“Yeah, sure-” Chiyo was about to take the plastic spoon from him when she abruptly stopped and pulled her hand away. “Um, actually nevermind. I’m okay.”
“Hm?” Nishinoya gave her a confused look. “You can have a bite, you know? I don’t mind.”
“Nope, I’m okay! You can have it!” She turned away, face flushed a brilliant red that almost matched her hair under the bright summer sun.
Nishinoya peered down at the blue shaved ice drenched in soda-flavored syrup, curious as to what she could be so embarrassed about. It definitely wasn’t the flavor, he’s seen her eat soda-flavored popsicles before. Heck, that’s all he’s ever bought and she never said a word about it. He twiddled with the plastic spoon, wondering what it could be when the thought struck him.
“Chiyo,” he hummed in amusement. “Don’t tell me you’re getting all embarrassed over an indirect kiss.”
Chiyo jumped midstep before slowly glaring back at him.
“S-So what if I am?” She murmured just loud enough for him to hear and Nishinoya felt like his heart was about to explode.
“Aw, come on,” he waved a spoonful in front of her face. “I know you want a bite. Shaved ice is what summer’s all about!”
Nishinoya had a hard time hiding his lovestruck smile, watching as Chiyo’s dark blue eyes darted back and forth, following the frozen treat like a curious kitten. Eventually, she got fed up with his teasing and caught the spoon in her mouth, eating the shaved ice with puffed out cheeks.
“Happy?” She asked after swallowing and Nishinoya couldn’t help but laugh.
“Yeah,” he said, taking another bite. “Super happy.”
Tumblr media
“Oh, this one is good too,” Nishinoya pointed to another manga spine. He pulled it down and passed it to Chiyo who began flipping through. “It’s a spin-off of a different manga I’ve read. But honestly this one is a lot better. And you don’t even need to read the original to understand what’s going on, so I recommend you give it a shot.”
Chiyo hummed. “The art is pretty.”
“It also has some sci-fi elements,” Nishinoya pointed to a giant laser beam firing out of the protagonists’ finger. “Which I know you like.” 
“Really, trying to sell it, hm?” Chiyo briefly glanced at him. “Alright, I’ll read it.”
“Nice!” He mentally high-fived himself. “Let me know what you think, okay?”
“Yeah, yeah,” Chiyo began walking towards the cashier when she noticed something out of the corner of her eye. “Oh, the new Shonen Jump magazine.”
“Is it out already?” Nishinoya followed her gaze, spotting an unfamiliar cover. “Crap, I forgot to buy it.”
“I guess that means you haven’t read the new One Piece chapter, right?” Chiyo smirked and Nishinoya immediately shook his head.
“No, I haven’t! And don’t spoil anything!”
“I know, I know,” she mused. “I’m not you. I don’t spoil stories and ruin other people’s enjoyment of them.”
“Hey, that’s not true! I’ve literally never done that before.”
“You spoiled what happened to Jiraiya to the entire class on the day that chapter came out!” Chiyo reminded him, still sounding somewhat bitter about the incident. “Honoka was actually about to kill you for that.”
Nishinoya looked away. “Really? I don’t remember that at all.”
That was a lie. He remembered that day like it was yesterday. He was talking about the latest Naruto chapter with his friends when his excitement led him to shout a bit too loud. Next thing he knew, he was being chased around the classroom by his classmates carrying pencils like pitchforks.
“Speaking of Okazaki, how’s she doing these days?”
“She’s okay,” Chiyo shrugged. “She always calls me up at like midnight, complaining about how hard the homework at Johzenji is. I think we’re planning on going out for lunch next week.”
“Oh, tell her I said hi.”
Chiyo gave a nod in acknowledgment before reaching for the Shonen Jump magazine. “Come on, let’s go.”
“Wait, I thought you already have a copy of that edition,” Nishinoya asked, hurrying to catch up with the red-head at the checkout line. “Why are you buying another one?”
“It’s for you,” she said, trying to make her voice sound as natural as possible. “What? You haven’t bought yours yet, right?”
“No, I haven’t,” he shook his head and Chiyo shrugged.
“Then I’ll buy it for you. Consider it a gift.”
Tumblr media
Nishinoya released his hands from the wheel, letting out a loud cheer as his car crossed the finish line on the arcade screen. He then glanced over at Chiyo, who was still struggling to round corners without crashing into the walls. 
“You know, maybe you should avoid getting a license when we turn 18.”
After leaving the bookstore and wandering around the shopping district for a little while longer, the two of them passed by an arcade, of which Nishinoya immediately dragged Chiyo into.
“Shut up!”
Frustrated, Chiyo stomped on the gas pedal, only to ram headfirst into another corner. Nishinoya keeled over laughing. 
“Need help?”
“No!” She tightened her grip on the wheel. “Just watch me, I’ll finish this race in under two minutes!”
And so, two minutes and a ton of laughing, shouting and bickering later, Chiyo’s car finally inched across the finish line.
“Finally,” she staggered out of the seat with a groan while Nishinoya patted her on the back. 
“Good work,” he snickered. “You know, I didn’t think you’d be so bad at video games.”
Disgruntled, Chiyo abruptly snapped her head around. “I’m not bad at video games,” she glared at him. “That wheel was just weird. It was probably broken or something. And um… these bandages! They make it hard to drive!”
“Uh-huh, uh-huh. Keep making excuses.”
Chiyo pouted at his chaff response. She looked around the arcade, quickly narrowing in on a two-person shooter. “There,” she pointed at the machine. “Let’s play that!”
“Alright,” Nishinoya pulled out an arcade token, flipping it in the air before catching it with a cheeky grin. “Game on!”
Tumblr media
“Man, I’m beat,” Stretching an arm up towards the vermillion sky, Nishinoya let out a loud yawn before slumping back into the park bench.
After a few rounds of shooter games, air hockey, then finally spending the rest of their tokens on those obviously-a-scam claw machines, the two made their way to a local park near the bus stop to rest. Chiyo handed him a bottle of soda, to which he gratefully accepted.
“Me too. We did a lot of walking today,” she said, taking a seat beside him.
As he pulled the can tab open, Nishinoya glanced over, studying Chiyo’s silhouette against the orange and gold stretches of light. He watched as she snapped open her oolong tea and took a sip.
“Hey, Chiyo?”
She met his gaze with a hum.
“Why’d you call me out today?”
The echoes of a crow squawking could be heard in the distance. Nishinoya watched as Chiyo’s lips parted slightly before pressing shut. She looked away. 
“Did you have fun?” She murmured.
“Huh?” Nishinoya was taken off guard by her question. “Yeah, of course I did! You know I love spending time with you!”
There was a soft smile on Chiyo’s face as she took another sip of her tea. “That’s good then,” she shuffled a little in her spot before taking a deep breath. “I just… I wanted to cheer you up,” she spoke just loud enough for him to hear.
“You haven’t been yourself after Interhighs,” she said, absently tracing the indents of the plastic bottle. “I know that match meant a lot to you guys, and you came really close to winning. So I wanted to take you out on a… hangout, to… get your mind off things…" She seemed to grow more embarrassed the more she spoke, eventually turning away from him completely with her cheeks flushed red.
Nishinoya felt his stomach flutter.
“Can I hug you?” He blurted out and Chiyo blinked in confusion.
“What?”
“I’m taking that as a yes.”
Then, without another word, he pulled her into the biggest hug his smaller stature could manage. 
“Wait-! Yuu!” Chiyo struggled, her chin lodged snugly in the crook of his neck. “Let go of me!”
“Nu-uh!” He nuzzled her hair with a bright laugh. “There’s no way I’m letting someone so precious go!”
Eventually, after lots of prying and smacking his arm, Chiyo finally managed to break free of his grasp.
“Jeez,” she grumbled, smoothing out the wrinkles in her sundress. “Watch what you’re doing next time. We’re in public, remember?”
“Sorry, sorry,” Nishinoya chuckled, though his tone suggested that he wasn’t apologetic at all. He helped her smooth out her hair before leaning back on the park bench. “Thanks for worrying about me.”
Chiyo huffed. “So? How’s the rest of your team taking the loss?”
“They’re fine,” Nishinoya took a drink of his soda. “We’re aiming for the Spring Tournament now. Oh, and the third-years decided to stay on the team, believe it or not.”
“Really? Even with college entrance exams?”
Nishinoya nodded. “First-round preliminaries are in August, so we’re gonna be busy,” he then peered up at the passing clouds with a smile. “Honestly, I’m really glad they stayed. I really wanna try getting to nationals with the team we have now.”
“You will,” Chiyo assured him. “They have you on the team after all.”
She was about to say something else when a thought seemed to strike her. “Oh, that’s right!” Turning to her tote, she pulled out a small gift bag and handed it to him. “Here, this is for you.”
Nishinoya took the gift bag with two hands, surprised to be receiving more on top of the already eventful day they shared. “Can I open it?” He asked excitedly and Chiyo nodded.
“Go ahead.”
He reached a hand in, pushing past the colorful tissue paper and brushing against something hard. Curious, he pulled it out to find himself holding a very familiar looking silver Nintendo DS.
His eyes widened.
“I know you said not to worry about it,” she folded her hands over her lap. “But I fixed it up for you regardless.”
That Nintendo DS was originally Nishinoya’s. It was something he often brought over to the Amari residence to let Hotaru and Kaito play on. But about a week ago, right before interhighs, the two got into a fight over who got to clear the boss level and managed to break the handheld device by ripping the top half clean off.
Chiyo was very apologetic and even offered to pay for a replacement, but Nishinoya didn’t really care. Sure, it was a gift from his parents when he graduated elementary school. But he never held it with much sentimental value. He didn’t see either of them very much anyway, so it might as well have been a gift from a distant aunt and uncle.
But now, holding the device in his hands, he hadn’t realized how much he’d missed it.
“I bought the replacement parts from the shop. My boss gave me some pretty good advice on how to link everything back together,” Chiyo continued to explain, completely unaware of the emotions bubbling inside his stomach. “But we couldn’t find a new shell since the model is so old, so I had to super glue it back together. I tried to put some epoxy clay between the spaces but it was too tight and wouldn’t close properly. So I just got rid of it.”
He ghosted a finger across the still visible cracks on the hinge, traces of dried glue still lingering here and there. He glanced at Chiyo, watching as she fidgeted with her bandages, waiting anxiously on his response.
It then hit him that the bandages on her fingers were probably a result of her poking around with the inner workings of the DS.
Suddenly, he felt something lodge in the back of his throat.
“Chiyo.”
“Y-Yes?” Her hands instinctively clenched on her dress.
“I’m gonna hug you.”
“Wha-?! Again?” Chiyo was about to protest, but she held her tongue when she met his honest gaze. She pursed her lips, then slowly opened her arms. 
“Okay.”
Nishinoya took the opportunity as soon as it presented itself, burying his face into the crook of her neck with a tender smile.
“Thank you. Thank you so much,” there was something faint in his voice. Though whether it was a laugh or sniffle, even Nishinoya himself didn’t know.
Tumblr media
On the bus ride home, Nishinoya couldn’t stop toying with the DS, repeatedly opening and closing it to see if it really worked like it used to. From what he could tell, Chiyo did a good job at putting everything back together.
He always knew she was somewhat handy. Being the caretaker of two children meant she often had to repair her sibling’s electronics or toys whenever they broke. But as far as he knew, this was her first time working with something so complex. 
As he gently closed the handheld console for what was probably the sixth time that ride, he felt a sudden thump on his shoulder. He looked to his side, surprised to find Chiyo fast asleep.
His eyes flickered down to her hands. And all he could imagine at that moment was Chiyo burning the midnight oil, single-mindedly tinkering with his DS. He couldn’t help but smile at the thought.
A strand of red hair fell in front of her face, brushing against her nose. Nishinoya gingerly reached down to tuck it behind her ear.
“I like you, Chiyo,” he whispered. “I like you a lot.”

Tumblr media
Idia and Yuu age 5
A young boy with pale skin and flaming blue hair wandered through the forest following a shiny light. He had noticed it float by while his father was busy at an annual conference hosted by the Ceres family. Curious about the light and bored from doing nothing, the boy decided to follow it.
"Hey! Wait for me!" The boy called out. The light continued moving farther and farther. His breathing started becoming heavier the more he ran. Suddenly, the light stopped, stood next to a tree, and gave Idia an expected look. Idia ran until he got a glimpse of what the light was. "A fairy.." He said breathlessly. Idia had heard of fairies from his mother and how they can come in many shapes and sizes. This fairy was small and emitted bright light. Nothing like the famous prince from Briar Valley the boy had heard about. 
"Who are you? How do you know my friend?" A new voice asked.
"AH!" Idia screamed and found a girl sitting behind the tree the fairy stood by. The girl wore a dress, and her eyes were red from crying. 
"I'm Idia. I saw this fairy fly by, and I followed it. What's your name?"
The girl smiled sadly. "Yuu Ceres." The girl turned to the fairy. "Thank you, Fira." She then turned to Idia. "I think she was looking for someone to cheer me up."
Idia sat down next to the girl. He pulled a handkerchief out of his pocket and handed it to her. "What happened?" he asked with curiosity. 
"My mom. She is always so overprotective and expects a lot from me. She won't let me have fun."
"Why don't you just tell her or run away?"
"Because she won't let me leave. Even if I did, I don't know who to turn to since everything I hear about the outside world is through books." Fira frowned and said something, although all Idia could hear were bells. "Yes, I have you and the other fairies, but I can't go to your world with you."
Idia hummed in thought until he got a lightbulb. "I know! My dad wants me to come with him to these meetings. Why don't we meet again and play the next time I come?"
"Really?! Do you mean it?"
Idia nodded shyly. "Yeah."
Yuu grinned and pulled Idia in for a hug. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
Idia blushed before slowly hugging Yuu back. Little did the two kids know that this moment set the foundation for the precious friendship between Idia and Yuu. Their friendship would last for a lifetime. 
Tumblr media
Idia and Yuu age 6
"Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten! Ready or not, here I come!" A 4-year-old Ortho giggled. Meanwhile, Yuu and Idia were hiding closely together behind a giant boulder. 
"Hehe, he is not going to find us now." Yuu laughed as she watched the boy go in the opposite direction from their hiding spot. Her eyes were so focused on Ortho that she did not notice Idia's hair turning slightly pink. 
"Maybe, but he will find us if you keep laughing like that."
Yuu stuck her tongue out playfully at Idia. "Please. We'll be fine."
Idia checked the area before turning to Yuu. "We should split up so Ortho would have difficulty finding us." The boy moved to stand up but was stopped by Yuu grabbing his hand.
"Wait! We should go together!"
"But it is better for us to divide and not stick to one spot."
Yuu slowly let go of Idia and sighed. "I just don't want you to leave me." She looked up at Idia's yellow eyes. "You are my best friend. If we go down, we can go down together."
Idia lightly blushed, and he looked away from Yuu's adorable eyes. How dare his crush be so cute. "I-"
"I FOUND YOU, BIG BRO AND BIG SIS!"
"AHH!" Idia and Yuu immediately clung to each other and screamed.
"Let's run for it!" Yuu exclaimed.
"I agree." Idia nodded, and the two made a run for it. 
All three children ran through the forest without a care in the world. Their innocent laughter filled the air, unaware of the change about to occur.
Tumblr media
Idia and Yuu age 10
Yuu sat humming a tune in her designated tree. She was waiting for her best friend, Idia, to return for their annual meet-up. Yuu thought that their first meeting five years ago was not out of luck. She finally felt something similar to freedom by spending time with the Shroud brothers. Her mother was not constantly eyeing her or strict teachers nagging about her mistakes. Yuu could finally be around people besides her fairy friends who did not care about these things.
"I'm so excited, Fira. I can show Idia how my magic has been improving." Yuu smiled as she conjured a tiny daisy from the ground. Fira's bell voice made Yuu laugh. "What? I want to show off my magic."
Fira rolled her eyes.
"Fine. I mostly want to see him. I like seeing his hair be pink when he thinks I don't notice." Yuu giggled while she eyed the flower. "I wonder what it means…" Fira's voice jingled, causing Yuu to look at her in shock. "You think he likes me? There's no way he does, Fira. He only sees me as a friend." 
Yuu traced her fingers along the grass, causing more flowers to grow. It was something to pass the time as she waited. She just had to be patient and wait. 
Minutes passed.
Hours passed.
Finally, the sun was setting. 
Yuu sat there waiting on Idia, only for him to not appear. Fira watched her friend in pity as she left stood up to leave. 
"It's okay. Things happen. Maybe he will come tomorrow?" Yuu said with hope as she walked back home. The girl felt an unsettling weight on her chest with each step. 
Yuu let her feet guide her, and soon enough, she was at the long dinner table eating with her mother and the conference attendants. Usually, this is where she would return to her quiet self but speak to Idia with a code they made up. 
The girl scanned the crowd until she spotted a familiar mop of blue fire hair, only to find one from Idia's father. Despite that, Yuu felt hope that he would return tomorrow. She made a promise to return to their spot to wait for him.
Only to find out he never did, even after the conference ended. 
Idia never returned for years; it was like he was never there. 
Yuu felt the uncertain feeling grow as the years progressed. It was after many years that she realized what it was: heartbreak.
Tumblr media
Idia and Yuu age 18
Yuu lay on a sofa reading a book in peace. It was one of the rare moments when her mother was on a trip for days, leaving Yuu to her own devices. Yuu was reading a story about a faraway city in a desert when she heard a knock on the door. She listened to the butler open it and some talking nearby. It was an unfamiliar voice that Yuu was not used to, so she ignored it instead. The girl continued reading until she heard footsteps heading her way.
"My Lady, you have a guest. His name is Idia Shroud."
Yuu dropped her book and turned to the butler. There, standing next to him, was her old childhood friend. He now grew very tall, wore a grey outfit, had long flame-blue hair almost touching the floor, and had a nervous look. His yellow eyes looked at anything but Yuu. 
"Thank you, Mecon. You can go now. I want to speak to him privately." 
Mecon bowed and stepped out, leaving Yuu and Idia alone to sit silently. Yuu had a neutral look while Idia continued to look at the walls. Yuu took a few steps towards Idia and stopped in front of him.
"Hi."
"Why?" Yuu's hands curled up in fists, and she took a deep breath to fight the urge to punch him. "Why did you disappear and not tell me anything?"
"Yuu, I-"
"Let me finish," Yuu responded sharply and glared daggers at Idia. "You left me for years and suddenly showed up just like that? I thought that we were friends?"
 "I know sorry is not going to fix this, but I had a reason." Idia looked away and sighed. "There was an accident at the Isle of Woe, and Ortho did not make it."
Yuu felt her anger mostly drain away, and shock took its place. "I'm so sorry."
"It's alright. The accident caused me to lock myself in my room because I wanted to help rebuild my brother." A small smile graced Idia's face, and he turned to Yuu. "You should see him now. He has become a technomatic humanoid and can now make his own decisions. I can bring him for you if you want."
"So Ortho is now a robot?"
"Initially, but now he has advanced so much that he is more human-like. He did that all on his own." Idia shifted his weight before he spoke again. "Yuu, I know neglecting you was not the right thing to do. However, I know Ortho misses you, and I-" Idia stopped himself. "want to fix our friendship."
Yuu looked at Idia in confusion, but she did not question him. "You know that may take a while.”
Idia looked at Yuu with confidence. "I am willing to take the risk."
---
"WHY DID I SAY THAT?" Idia cried the moment he entered his room. Meanwhile, Ortho closed his book and looked at his brother in curiosity.
"How did your meeting go with Big Sister?" Ortho could recall meeting the girl from his old memories and still referred to her with that nickname despite never meeting her. There was a reason the previous Ortho called Yuu that, and Idia never figured it out. 
"Well, she got mad at me, as she should, and then I made a mistake."
"What did you do?"
Idia sighed and looked at his brother. "I did not tell her I missed her and said I wanted to fix our friendship instead. How lame of me for not admitting it!"
Ortho set his book aside and floated to his brother. "That is still a good start! An important step to a healthy romantic relationship is friendship."
"ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP? Where did that come from?"
Ortho only giggled. "Big Brother, my old memories show you always blushed around Yuu. That means that you like her!"
"Ortho, I was a kid at the time. It was basically puppy love. Besides, she did not like me that way."
"Your heart rate is increasing."
"Because I am being a laughing stock right now!"
Ortho sighed. "There is nothing wrong with having feelings. Your research notes always included Yuu one way or another."
Idia looked at Ortho quizzingly. "You looked at my notes?"
"So you should focus on being her friend and then see where it goes. It could help rekindle your relationship."
Idia sighed. His friendship with Yuu was practically at level 2 and not level 100 after many years had passed. It would be hard, but he needed to work to save it. 
Tumblr media
Idia and Yuu age 24
A few years passed since idia and Yuu reunited, and they rekindled most of what they had lost. Both had changed in their own unique ways. In fact, Yuu thought that Idia's shy personality was adorable. Gone were the annual visits. Instead, Idia made an effort (shocking, right) to send in a drone that looked like a bird with a hologram attached so they could keep tabs on one another. 
Yuu was surprised by the number of inventions Idia made during their time apart. He always continued to surprise her at each visit. His latest one was currently a surprise for Yuu. 
"Where are you taking me, Ortho?" Yuu asked. She was currently being led somewhere by Ortho, floating behind her with his hands on her shoulders. A cloth was tied around Yuu's eyes, so she could not see anything. 
"It's a surprise from Big Brother!" Ortho said gleefully, causing Yuu to giggle. Seeing how her friend had grown ever since they first met was nice. Both Yuu and Ortho continued walking until Ortho stopped putting pressure on Yuu. "Okay, we're here." The boy said and proceeded to remove the blindfold. 
Yuu squinted her eyes as bright light entered her vision. She blinked until her eyes became adjusted to her surroundings. She was in the middle of a field, with trees lining up the border, and in front of her was no other than Idia standing next to an odd-looking contraption. 
"What's that?" Yuu asked, pointing to the machine next to her friend. 
Idia's eyes widened, and he twiddled his fingers together. "It's your birthday gift." He replied shyly, pink covering the tips of his hair. 
Yuu examined the machine. "Really? What does it do?"
"Just watch." Idia pressed a button, causing a dome to project from the machine and appear around the field. The machine spilled out various seeds, scattering them amongst the grass. Once it was settled, Idia's hands glowed. Yuu watched as he murmured a spell, causing a variety of flowers to grow. Light fairies appeared like fireflies and flew to each flower, illuminating each one in multitudes of colors. Meanwhile, Ortho flew around like Yuu's fairy friends.  
Yuu's mouth opened in shock as she inspected a few. "Are these marigolds?" She pointed at another nearby, "And is this a snowdrop?" She turned to her friend in amazement. "How did you do this? These two should not grow in the same season."
Idia looked away from Yuu. "Well, it was not hard. This dome creates a greenhouse effect, so you can grow various flowers here. They also stay alive longer." He slowly turned to Yuu. "Do you like it?"
Yuu felt touched for the first time in her life. She felt her heart grow light and tears form in her eyes. "Idia," She wiped the tears out of her eyes. "I love it. This is the best thing you could have ever given me."
"I know how much you love flowers."
"And I cannot thank you enough." Yuu suddenly hugged Idia and rested her head on his racing heart, causing him to let out a small eep. "Thank you, Idia. I love it."
Ortho and the other fairies watched as Idia's hair became pink, and he slowly hugged Yuu back. The two looked like lovers stuck in their own little world. 
"They are definitely in love."
The fairies jingling voices agreed.
---
Two individuals lay in their beds that night, deep in thought. 
"Fira?" "Ortho?"
"What is it?" both replied in their own ways. 
"What is this feeling I'm experiencing? My heart keeps racing when I think of Yuu/Idia. I want to see her/him smile and be around her/him all the time."
"Oh, Yuu/Idia, you are just in love."
A blush filled their faces, and they smiled gleefully. They felt warm in their chest at the thought of the respective crush. It felt nice, like a flame infamous in the Shroud family. 
Both the fairies and Ortho knew what they needed to do. 
---
"Mother, I need to talk to you," Yuu said, entering her mother's study.
Demetra set her wine glass down and looked at her daughter. "What is it?"
Yuu took a deep breath and confidently walked up to her mother. "It is about my marriage. I found someone I am interested in."
Demetra raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Who is the lucky suitor?"
"Idia Shroud."
Suddenly, as soon as the name left Yuu's mouth, the room felt icy. Yuu questioned whether or not her mother had an affinity for ice for that brief second. 
"What?"
"I said that the man I want to marry is Idia Shroud."
"No."
"But mother!"
"No, Yuu," Demetra said, standing up. "The Shrouds are nothing for troublemakers. They deserved their punishment after they rebelled against the Jupiter family."
"But he did nothing, Mother! That was all in the past!" Yuu exclaimed. Her eyes burned in fury as she recalled her dear friend's shy personality. 
Demetra scoffed and shook her head. "Their family does nothing more than play with monsters. I heard that Shroud, whom you love so much, even turned his brother into one after an accident. I've seen your loved one's father shy away ever since."
Ortho's face comes to mind, how he still smiled despite not being the original Ortho. "Don't you dare say that about Ortho! Idia loves him as a brother!" Yuu said with tears in her eyes. 
"Or what? The family is cursed, and if you run to him, you will suffer too. You will be stuck on an island surrounded by monsters." Demetra remained indifferent as she watched her daughter cry. "Yuu, I am doing this for your own good."
"Doing what? I love him!"
Demetra tsked. "You need to get over your puppy love. Besides, I found someone suitable for you."
Yuu froze and looked at her mother. "What do you mean?"
Demetra smiled, the first good emotion during the whole conversation. "I spoke to the head of the Jupiter family, and he agreed that you are to be arranged to marry Alcides Jupiter. He is smart,  handsome, and in line to take over his family. A perfect match for you."
Yuu felt her world collapse as she herself fell to her knees. She knew of Alcides, but she could not imagine being tied down to him because of her mother's doing. She wanted the freedom to go out and see the world outside the little bubble she had been stuck in for 24 years. Sure, she might be stuck on the Island of Woe, but she would have more access to the outside world than she was now. 
Demetra kneeled down and patted Yuu's shoulder. "You will get to meet him next week. Trust me, Yuu. Everything will work out in the end. As they say, mother knows best." She walked out of the room, leaving Yuu by herself. 
Yuu wiped her eyes with her hands. Her eyes wandered to the walls and their flower designs around her. She felt like the walls constricted her and trapped her in a glorified cage. Yuu's eyes caught on an orange light floating in a window. She looked at the light with determination. 
She needed to get out now. 
---
A few days later, at night, Yuu made her move. Packing only a few necessities, Yuu opened her window to find her fairy friends around her. 
"Do you have everything you need?" Ortho asked as he floated to Yuu's window. 
"Yeah, I made sure to" Yuu turned to Ortho, who was wearing a black suit and had a robotic dog beside him. "Ortho? What are you doing here?'
Ortho giggled. "Your friends reached out to me and told me your situation, and I am here to bring you to the Island of Woe." Fira nodded and spoke something that came out like bells. "Fira also wants to come along too."
"But what about your friends? Won't you miss them?" Yuu asked, and her friend smiled. Her bell voice made a sound that sounded something like reassurance. As if she was telling Yuu that she would be okay with it. 
"Alright, I will let you tag along." Yuu smiled as Fira flew to her shoulder. 
"Now that is settled, let's head out before sunrise." Ortho motioned to the robot dog. "Yuu, you will ride Cerberus 1 while I fly us out. I'll make sure to use my magic to cover our tracks."
Yuu nodded and took one last look at her room. That room was full of memories since her childhood. The walls had seen Yuu grow with her mother and late father, cry over strict lessons, and talk to her fairy friends about Idia. Yuu felt a heavy sensation in her chest and turned to Ortho. 
"What about my mom? She would know I went to you to the Island."
"My parents and my grandmother will vouch for us. Don't worry; we will ensure you get the freedom you deserve."
Yuu nodded and hopped on Cerberus. "So long, Mother."
---
"Psst. Big Brother. Wake up."
Idia groaned and turned away from Ortho. "Five more minutes."
"You have to wake up! I have a surprise for you."
"Can't it wait?"
A female voice laughed, causing Idia to wake up instantly. "You want me to wait?" 
Idia threw his blanket off and sat up. Yuu's amused face filled his vision, causing Idia to blush at his embarrassing predicament. "Yuu? When did you come here?"
Yuu laughed. "An hour ago. Ortho gave me a tour of this place and led me here. Thank goodness he was with me, or I would have been lost. I must get used to this place if I plan to stay here long."
"What do you mean?"
"My mother wanted me to marry Alcides since I uhh," she turned to Ortho. "Can you step outside while I explain the next part to your brother?" 
 Ortho smiled, and Idia noticed something in his eyes like his brother kept secret. "Alright. I will show Fira around some more." Said fire fairy magically appeared and followed Ortho out the door. 
Yuu took a deep breath now that she was alone. "My mother told me about the arranged marriage because I-" She looked into Idia's eyes. "Said that I was in love with you."
Idia.exe froze. His body stiffened, his heartbeat increased, and his hair turned pink. "W-WHAT? Are you sure?"
Yuu nodded. "Yes, I am sure." She sat down next to Idia. "You have been my friend for a long time, Idia; even after you shut yourself out, we connected like nothing happened. I want to be by your side doing more than hiding out in a forest. Of course, if you will allow me."
Idia felt as if he was going to burst. "But what about that Alcides guy?"
"I don't know him, but I know you more. My mother could throw many guys at me to marry, but it would not sway anything. I would still choose you." Yuu said, intertwining one of her hands with Idia's.
Idia felt elated despite the very obvious blush on his face. Luckily, Yuu ignored it and rested her head on his shoulder. "That was the cheesiest thing I have ever heard." Idia laughed and squeezed Yuu's hand.
Yuu squeezed back in response, and a smile graced her face. "Yes, but you never said you didn't like it."
"I don't."

A/N:
Demetra is inspired by Demeter in Greek mythology and Fira is based on the fire fairies in twst.
Ceres is Demeter's Roman name.
Yes this part of the royal au, but I hc that the Island of Woe is more advanced in technology than the whole world.

Question! regarding vil and perhaps, leona as a s/o, i'd like to ask if you have any angst thoughts abt them?? do you think vil would be controlling or leona being too 'i-dont-give-a-fuck' type of person? TRUTHFULLY, i feel like vil being too controlling would be because he wants to bring out the best in someone he loves which Yuu/Reader would understand while Leona is someone who is more 'subtle' or shows his affection or care thru words or actions.
ANOTHER QUESTION I'M SORRY IF YOU'RE OVERWHELMED but, if you ever continue your Heroes Vs. Villains stories.. would you make a Mufasa-like character to be the 'Hero' in the story? (i've been wondering for a while if you ever did think of one! cuz i assumed that Heartslabyul would be Alice, Scarabia = Aladdin, Ignihyde = Hercules)
LASTLY IN MONSTER MAYHEM, what 'monster' do you think Vil or Riddle would be? 👁👁
Oh my I have so many thoughts on these poor bois and they would have So Many Issues.
Which of their habits would be more 'angsty' I think would depend on the individual and their own preferences--because they basically sit at opposite ends of the same sliding scale (Vil caring objectively far too much, and Leona not enough. All based around the same fear of themselves not being worth it). Personally, Leona's apathy would sting far more for me than Vil's obsessiveness, but everyone vibes differently.
For Leona, I feel like he's so ingrained into the 'why try when I'll never get anywhere' mentality that it would cause a lot of issues. Because it's one thing already to not be putting effort into a relationship. It is another entirely to very openly and actively show that that's your intent. Like I know for me, I would absolutely break if I went to talk to someone about how I feel like they don't actually care, and they just scoffed and were like 'yeah no why would I? What makes you worth it?' Whether they mean it or not (and surely Leona wouldn't actually mean it. He's just lying to save his own sorry skin), feeling like you're not worth anything when you care so much in return is a genuinely miserable experience, and in my opinion, it's very very hard to come back from that unless said reciprocating person is super chill and understanding. For someone who had, say, already pre-existing self-worth issues, that would just be the end of it. So I think in turn to counteract that, Leona would need someone who was very sure in themselves. Not like egotistical, but someone with a very strong sense of self and independence that could handle that weaponized apathy of his. Because that is just a recipe for absolute disaster--a perpetual spiral of being ignored, feeling upset about being ignored, being ignored harder out of making a point that he really doesn't give a shit, and just ack. An absolute nightmare.
As for Vil, I see a lot of his inevitably controlling behavior being born of that same sort of 'I'm not good enough' fear Leona has, just... being terribly misdirected. Like, he would certainly push you in a good way! Doing his best to keep you healthy, and happy, and moving towards being the best you that you want to be. I just think with him one of the big things is that when you have so many of your own confidence issues, cruelty starts to feel like white noise. When your own head is constantly spewing all kinds of vitriol at yourself, you start to think it's normal. So I'm sure he'd accidentally casually say something absolutely bitingly mean. And maybe it'd only really hit when you were already having a bad day. But it would, and it would suck. And he would feel terrible about it. Which would unfortunately just feed into the rest of it. Because he has to be better, to make up for it. And that means taking his role as your guardian and self-proclaimed instructor up to the nth degree, because he has to be the best for you to also be the best. Which might only exacerbate the unpleasant comments or controlling behavior. The big difference with Vil I think though, or at least what makes the difference for me, is that I don't think there would ever be any doubt there that he does care. It's that he cares too much and too hard that's the problem. While Leona pushes away, Vil claws in as close as he possibly can. And depending on how you deal with that sort of codependence, it could definitely cause a lot of strife. If you're someone who isn't particularly independent or strongwilled, someone who likes being given direction and purpose (*cough* like I may or may not be *Cough*) then you're going to probably be able to handle that a lot better than someone who was already very strong in their own sense of self and where they stand in life.
But ahh!! Sorry for the absolute SLOG of a ramble. I just love both their Problematic Personalities SO MUCH, and Vil in particular is my favorite.
For the rest of the ask!
The thought with Leona for a Heroes vs Villains was to have it be a Him vs His Family sort of situation majoritively, with a surprise guest in the form of a Twist-ififed character I shant say. In case I do ever get around to writing it. (but I will go hint hint and say there's only so many villainous animal characters in disney movies. so like. do with that what you will. And also like, lions vs tigers--always a vibe 😉 anywho!)
For Monster Mayhem, I've decided Vil 100% is a siren. Have the outline for it ready to go and everything. Riddle I picture as a Sphynx sort of creature, with a massive penchant for trapping people with his strange, archaic, laws

Prefects learning the history of bird man statue in Headmistress Darling au
- in Cafeteria -
Isabelle: yeah. And that statue though.
Ace: what about it?
Estella: who’s he?
Deuce: ….. uhhh…?
Haru: you don’t know, do you?
Ace: oh we know. It’s just….. a very huge topic…..
Deuce: yeah, it was over the news over years ago….
Drew: what happened?
Ace: uhhh….. we don’t have the proper details…. But uh, talk to Mr. Trein. He’s old to know it up close. It was a huge deal back then.
Ophelia: how so?
Deuce: just ask the professor….. wow, you guys don’t even know that.
Freya: know what?
Ace: it’s- *hears someone* oh, Deuce let’s go!
Deuce: r-right! *leaves with Ace*
Minako: okay…. That was suspicious as fuck, right?
Freya: oh definitely.
Tsukii: mhmm!
- to Trein class -
Trein: *grading papers*
Minako: *kicks door*
Trein: *spooked grandpa noises*
Freya: okay maybe not scare the only person who has the answers to what we have to ask.
Trein: I suppose it’s about the statue?
Estella: okay, I’m leaving….. after the explanation.
Trein: *sighs* that statue. Is the supposed. You say…. Corpse of the previous headmaster.
All Prefect’s: what?!
Trein: it happened about thirty years ago. Before Headmistress Crowley taken over. The last headmage was her father, a caring single man who rose this girl to the ideal image of the perfect daughter. But, tragedy struck. In the form of a lunatic man who lead a cult known as the Mages of Light attacked the school grounds. However, to this. It costed the previous headmage his life. His daughter, didn’t thought straight as a young fletching. You see, Headmistress Crowley cold demeanor and emptiness is the result of this tragedy. From a young age, she became headmistress. Graduating her classes few years early, and taken over. Of course, the last staff pleaded her to reconsider. But, how can we? When she can only think of grief and despair. As caring she is to students and her family. She can be quite a calloused woman when upset. She is truly kind, but, the more you see her eyes. You wonder, is she still alive inside. Or did she too died along side her father years ago?
Freya: and…. The cultist? What happened to him?
Trein: ….. it was found a student thirty years ago was his son, and he was expelled permanently but. His father….. he never saw another light of day after a few weeks.
Estella: holy sh-
Trein: however, no one could say she had any involvement. Because they can never find a trace of her near. To her, she just said “divine punishment” but what others say. “It was justified revenge.” There is no answer for the case. And it remained closed for the time being. And she chose to keep her father remains, making it a total of eight statues of the most respected. Eight statues for the eight dorms.

- Darling isn’t heartless to the Yuu’s/shows a motherly interaction with them
- the staffs are deeply scared of Darling lifeless eyes, which they cannot face her without thinking she is going to maim them
- Darling respects Trein a lot and vice versa, mainly because Trein was a guardian figure to help her be a full headmage with wisdom and acknowledgment of her own decisions (Darling: my dad died but I still got a human one to substitute my depression for a bit.)
- massive better change with no one overblotting in this au, but someone is slowly losing it.
- this is probably a come back, aka more Darling angst
- everyone knows about the attack because it was hella fucking public and Ambrose still checks on this dead inside lady to see if she’s still alive with a pulse. (Grandpa Ambrose to Darling)

Poor Yuu. Also. Yuu being the Therapist Friend. Not just in NRC in general, but also in their friend group. Mostly being acknowledged when one of the others wants or needs something. And other than that, they’re… not really acknowledged. Just when the others need something or another. Just being that Therapist Friend who everyone can turn to, but doesn’t have anyone that they can turn to. Maybe, if they don’t ready have it, they develop imposter syndrome. And no one tries to correct them or tries to help them. Sure they’re in the friend group. But… they’re just an extra. Someone that can be picked up and put down whenever the others so please.
Angst.
Asp, just cause I’m not very good at signaling if something is a request or not, this is not a request. Just a lil brain thing that randomly came to be. Blurb? Sorry >.< im not good at explaining some things and I know I can go into too much detail-
I certainly do love my angst. Though, I actually don't consider the main character to be the Therapist Friend, they're actually more of the Listener Friend, since Therapist implies that the main character has the words needed to help them solve their problems or encourage them to solve it, buuuut that isn't really the case here. Basically just an ear piece for people to talk to and not really expect anything back, which one would think is a pretty good thing since you don't have the expectation of carrying someone's problem, they just wanted to be heard out.
Cause with being the Therapist Friend, you can get angry at someone, at everyone really cause you're shouldering the burden of everyone's problems, but when you're the Listener Friend, who isn't expected to solve problems beyond just listen to them, you have no one to get angry at cause there's never an expectation to solve their problems. Once this dynamic is set, it's hard to break out of it. And if you're someone, like me, who never likes to talk about their problems cause asking for help is difficult to admit, you're gonna end up in a dynamic where people won't ask about what's going with you, because they're respecting your boundaries that you've already established.
Either way, it's very angsty. But yeah, that's the distinction I wanted to make. A lot of people like to say the main character is the Therapist Friend, but I myself can never relate to that. To me, the main character is the Listener Friend, which I relate to more. It's the kind of role that won't preserve a friendship once you shift into a very different environment, such as switching jobs or going to different schools.

Hi it’s me overblot Kalim anon back again
Firstly I’m so glad you like my idea and honestly you put what I was thinking about the meaning behind his overblot into words 100% accurately
Secondly I wanna share my final additions to add some extra angst:
1. Yknow how MC/Yuu has been getting more and more sarcastic with each new overblot? Yea that would not be the case with kalim. Resident sunshine boy of the school suddenly snapped? MC/Yuu wouldn’t even have anything to say they’d be shocked
2. Oasis Maker causing rain can tie into this perfectly, cause obviously emotions are high right? That’s how overblots work. So imagine just him overblotting and causing the once sunny skies of Scarabia to turn into dark clouds raining down on the dorm with no end in sight. This would also perfectly reflect his current mental state
3. Jamils reaction: obviously he’d probably worry about what would happen if his parents and Kalims parents found out that he overblotted. But I can’t help but wonder what he would think about besides that. Would he be worried for Kalim deep down? Annoyed? Regretful? It honestly depends how much of a relationship was created between the two before this hypothetical overblot happened and that in it of itself opens a whole can of angsty worms
Man twst really went “no one is mentally well here” and proved it in 100 different ways huh. Someone give these boys a hug and a certified therapist that isn’t MC/Yuu
Kicks in the door because boy we are all crying tonight but YEAH
Honestly the overblots all make a lot of sense as they come, with Jamil's being more surprising of the main cast, Riddle was actively being borderline tyrannical and aggressive, Leona is also openly aggressive and was ultimately behind a lot of people getting injured, Azul was openly behind all the giant bullshit of conning like half the student body, we haven't gotten to Vil yet but he's openly in the spotlight and hostile towards others- like MILD SPOILERS but in book 6 Idia comments that the ones who have overblotted are all Known Problem Students (save for Jamil, who's mastered the art of keeping his head down and blending into the background in order to be unnoticed, hence why his overblot would be a surprise to anyone who wasn't the MC actively witnessing him being shady as fuck)
So it's basically yes, been a track record of very plainly obvious problem students who clearly have issues, so for Kalim to be someone who overblots?? That would be so genuinely alarming for everyone involved to hear, to learn that someone who is basically sunshine personified was so wholely consumed by the negativity within himself that he's endangering himself? Honestly the most joke adjacent comments I could see would be something along the lines of "man we told him that him being so happy go lucky was annoying but we didn't mean it like this"
Also YES I HAD THAT THOUGHT like Kalim was able to easily create an entire river like, what better way to drive others away when you're at your breaking point than a terrible storm. Let everyone stay safe inside out of the rain while he waits within the worst parts of it as he essentially drowns within himself. How easy it would be to cry a personal ocean, after all
Though of course it would just make him more upset to see that people have come after him because no, he never wanted anyone to endanger themselves for his sake, he never wanted any of them to dare to brave the storm he wrought
Though as far as Jamil goes I think he would be terrified. He does really care about Kalim deep down, and we can see this with how worried he gets when Kalim is in danger. There is hostility and resentment that has seeped into and uprooted their friendship, but you can tell they once really were friends. They were children who played together and laughed together and who even now do have care laced within the rubble they stand upon. Jamil might make a rude comment to the rest of the cast or act annoyed, but he's not overblotted and acting out during a massive breakdown (the only time he's openly endangered Kalim). He doesn't want Kalim to die, hostilities or not, and I think he wouldn't be motivated based on fear of his family or Kalim's own finding out but rather just, that's his childhood friend, regardless of how they feel now, and he does not want him to die
This is more me doing some wild speculation here but HEY as long as you get what I'm saying lmao

You hear the door close and call out from your shared bedroom. “Yuuji, s’that you?”
“Yeah.”
You looked in the direction of his raspy voice, a might concerned. You could tell by the sound of it that he hadn’t had a great day. 
Your boyfriend walked into the room looking worse for wear with a bloody lip, tousled hair, and a wild look in his eyes. 
You sat up in bed wearing one of his shirts and a worried expression. “Oh shit, baby, what happened?”
He peeled his blood-stained shirt off, revealing his perfectly sculpted torso and his strong, broad shoulders. You were relieved to see that he only had a couple of minor cuts and scratches meaning most of the blood wasn’t his. Still, you’d never get used to seeing the man you loved coming home all beat up and covered in blood. 
“Don’t wanna talk.” The pink-haired male stared at you while unbuckling his belt, his mouth open and the fire in his honey-brown eyes burning hotter than ever. You couldn’t help but smirk and waggle your eyebrows at him when his pants fell to the floor, giving you an eyeful of the familiar bulge in his cotton boxer briefs. 
“Okay, I’m sure you wanna get a showe-“ You squeaked when Yuuji suddenly grabbed your ankles and yanked you across the bed. Your shirt slid up, exposing your little red panties. Yuuji licked his lips and squeezed his fist around his stiffening dick. His eyes scanned the length of your bare legs all the way up to the outline of your pussy lips.
He shook his head as he climbed on top of you, caging you between his arms and spreading your thighs open with his knee. 
“Just wanna fuck,” he growled before crashing his lips down onto yours, his hungry tongue quickly invading your mouth. 
You sighed with desire, dragging your fingertips from his hard chest down along the hills and valleys of his six-pack abs. “Take what you need, Yuuji.”
He nipped and kissed his way along your jaw, the tip of his nose tickling your ear. “I will,” he whispered. 
You knew what was coming. Yuuji would get like this sometimes. There was never any warning, but one thing you knew for sure is that you were about to be ravaged by your man. 
You gripped his biceps and hissed when he dipped down and grazed his teeth over your sensitive nipples, hardening in spite of his hot breath seeping into the fabric that covered them. 
Yuuji’s shaky fingers dug into the meat of your thigh as he rocked his hips, desperate for the friction of your cunt against his clothed cock. His pre began to soak through his underwear, a wet spot forming where his dick tip was. Your core clenched around nothing, pussy seeking him out to suck him in, your need soaking through your panties. 
Yuuji reached down, circling your clit with his thumb a few times before yanking your panties to the side so hard that the stitching in the material ripped. 
“Yuu! Just take ‘em off!” 
“No time,” he panted, shoving the waistband of his briefs down below his balls. His painfully hard cock slapped against the skin beneath his navel. 
Yuuji was so ready he didn’t think he needed to guide his tip to your opening. But you were so slick from the mixture of your juices that the thick tip of his cock slid right up between your pussy lips and over your swelling clit, making you arch your back off the bed. 
“Goddamnit,” Yuuji hissed, impatiently reaching between your bodies to grab his cock and guide it to your clenching hole.
“Wanna feel you inside me, Yuuji,” you whined, pressing your heels into his glutes.
Your loving boyfriend pushed his meaty cockhead against your opening and it slipped right in, filling you up with one long stroke of his hips. You cried out at the sudden, unforgiving stretch of his fat cock. Every vein rolled against your tight walls, pulling loud moans from both of you.
“M’sorry, beautiful. Need to fuck you so hard,” Yuuji groaned as he retreated only to push his full length into you again. 
“S’okay, baby,” you said, gasping with every vigorous snap of his hips. 
“I- ahhhfuck- I love you hmmmm so fucking much,” Yuuji huffed into the crook of your neck. He grabbed your ankles from his sides and put them on his hard shoulders as he raised up onto his knees. Still pounding into you, he leaned forward, forcing you into a mating press as his wet cock glided in and out of your swollen pussy. 
He drilled into you hard and deep, his angry cockhead peeking into your cervix as his flexing thighs slapped against your ass.
“Oh god, oh fuck Yuuji…faster.” 
His balls tightened, ready to release a hot load of his sperm. They clapped loudly against your wet taint in time with his frenetic thrusts. “Mmfuck. M’sorry baby. Gonna cum soon.”
You cupped his face in your hands to look into his soft brown eyes. “Cum for me, Yuuji. Wanna feel you unload inside me…”
His head dropped and his ass flexed as he slammed harder into you, both of your moans filling the room. His cock was always the biggest just before he came, stretching your tight cunt a little more. The drag of his dark pink tip against your sweet spot made your walls squeeze around him, sending him over the edge. 
“Shit! Cumming!” He choked on a whimper as his hips stuttered and his cock spasmed, filling you with his white hot cream. 
You carded your fingers behind his ears and into his shorter, dark brown hair. A bead of sweat rolled down his chest, rising and falling as he tried to catch his breath.
Yuuji pulled out, but instead of rolling onto the bed beside you he grabbed you and flipped you over onto your belly. 
You giggled. “Yuuji, baby, what are you-“
With his hands hooked around your hips he jerked them upward, forcing your ass into the air. 
“I’m not done.”
He rubbed his cock along your folds, smearing the cum that was still seeping from your pussy. You whimpered when he smacked his sticky tip against your hard, pink bud.
His cock had softened a little but that didn’t stop him from bullying it back inside you. He could already feel more blood rushing to it as the tip dragged along your soft, wet walls. 
You began pushing back against him, spurring him on. “Fuck me, Yuuji,” you whined, your greedy cunt trying to suck him in deeper. 
He winced at the overstimulation, but didn’t complain or argue. This was what he wanted after all. To fuck you until he exhausted himself so that he’d be able to get some sleep that night. 
The sight of you underneath him, your beautiful face and body, your eyes and heart so full of love for him, knowing that you trusted him with your life…he wanted to tell you how much he loved everything about you. He wanted to open up to you and tell you all about his shitty day; how horrible he felt about the way things went down and how powerless he felt because he wasn’t able to do more. But there were only so many words and he didn’t think he was smart enough to find or even know all the right ones. So he channeled and expressed it all in the best way he knew how.
“Ohgodohfuck Yuuuuu, please don’t stop fucking me! Need to cum on your cock, baby.”
Yuuji didn’t miss a beat. He picked up his pace again, fucking his leaking semen back into your cunt. His hips slammed against you, the prominent ridge of his cockhead thumping against your sweet spot with every hard thrust. He reached between your trembling legs, finding your clit to vigorously rub tight circles over it. 
He’d come to read how close you were by the intensity of your clenching walls. Feeling your pussy squeeze around him tighter and tighter brought him closer to his end as well. 
Your gasps and moans had become more urgent as the searing coil spooled up low in your belly. Your eyes fluttered and rolled back in your head, the side of your face pressed against the mattress as your man fucked you right. 
“Yu-u-ji-i…” Your words came out in broken, slurred syllables in time with his powerful thrusts. “Fe-el-s-so-g-ood ba-by.” 
Yuuji grunted as he plowed into you exquisitely, his fingers working feverishly over your twitching bud. On his next thrust, you found yourself thrown off the precipice of what it means to have a body and into pure ecstasy. Your hands grabbed at whatever they could get a hold of…mostly clawing at Yuuji’s burning thighs. 
Your spent body collapsed onto the bed, too weak to hold up against your boyfriend’s pounding. Yuuji just kept right on fucking you into the mattress. 
“Oh shit, m’gonna nut again! Fuck baby!” 
No sooner had he announced his second orgasm did the dam in his balls break again. “Feels so amazing when your pussy milks my dick like this,” Yuuji groaned, pumping his hips slow and shallow as he flooded your twitching cunt with more of his thick cum.
He leaned over you, pressing his palms against the bed on either side of you to catch himself from dropping his full weight onto you. He wrapped his arms around your waist and rolled over onto his side, taking you with him to spoon. He whispered sweet nothings in your ear, kissing the back of your neck and the tops of your shoulders. 
After some postcoital cuddling, Yuuji helped you strip the bed. He carried everything to the washer while you put clean sheets on. 
Once the bed was fit for sleeping on again, both of you got ready to take a shower. Yuuji turned the shower head on and made sure the water temperature was just how you liked it. When you were ready, he held the door open for you to get in first, stopping you just long enough to kiss you and say he loves you with a weak, but genuine smile. 
You were lathering his back, taking special care around his deeper wounds when his shoulders began to shake. 
You were one of the few people to see Yuuji Itadori cry. He hated crying in front of others. It wasn’t that he didn’t like being vulnerable, it was because he couldn’t stand feeling like he was burdening anyone. He was the worrier - others weren’t supposed to worry about him. 
But you’d told him so many times over the three years you’d been together that you didn’t worry about him. You cared for him and loved him, more than anything. But you believed in him and his strength, his will to survive and his ability to hold his own in a fight. You especially believed in his drive to make the world a better place and only hoped that your support was enough to hold him up in times like these. 
You’d always thought he deserved so much more than everything you had to give. Those were the times he grinned from ear to ear, eyes sparkling, promising you that even just a drop of your love was his whole lifeline. You gave him more of a reason to live than he’d ever had before. 
But sometimes being a sorcerer took too much of a toll on him. You’d never try to convince him to quit, first because your knuckleheaded boyfriend was too stubborn to do anything he didn’t have a mind to. Secondly because you knew how much it meant to him to save as many lives as possible. Today was one of the days he wasn’t able to save them all. 
You stopped washing him and simply wrapped your arms around his waist, resting your head against his back. His hands covered his face and you felt the ragged breath he drew into his lungs before the dam broke. 
You helped him down to the tiled shower floor, blood-tinged water washing down the drain. Keeping his head in his hands, he pulled his knees to his chest, going into little space. You knelt next to him, stroked his arm, and whispered, “Do you need to be alone, love?” Without lifting his head, he shook it to indicate that he needed you to stay. You sat down next to him and let him lean into you as you wrapped your loving arms around him. 
You held him like that, wordlessly. His whole body trembled against you, his tears mixing with the water that fell all around you like warm summer rain. You bit your lip, fighting the urge to cry with him. Your heart ached for him, knowing the weight that he shouldered. But your tears would have to wait. Yuuji trusted you implicitly, knowing it was safe for him to fall apart because you’d always be there to put the pieces of him back together. For now at least, you had to be strong for him. 
Yuuji rested his back against the shower wall while you washed his hair and the rest of his body. You rinsed him and turned the shower off before grabbing his towel. He stood up, legs a little shaky, and rubbed his head with the towel before wrapping it around his waist. 
You both dried off and you brought Yuuji a clean pair of shorts. He sat on the edge of the tub while you dressed some of his wounds, softly speaking a few words of affirmation.
You went back to bed together. You laid on your back while Yuuji nestled his body between your legs and rested his weary head on your chest. Your heartbeat had always soothed him. 
He took your hand, lacing his fingers between yours and looked up at you, resting his chin just below your breastbone. He pressed his lips to your knuckles. “I love you so much, (Y/n),” he rasped. “Thank you for taking such good care of me. I’m sorry I’m so much trouble sometimes.”
“You’re no trouble, babe. Killing curses is a thankless job. Most people don’t even know you put your life on the line every day to keep them safe.” You ran your fingers through his damp hair. “Taking care of you when you come home like this is the least I can do.”
“Don’t know what I did to deserve a girl like you,” he said, rubbing tender circles into your palms with his thumbs.
“Well, I’m no Jennifer Lawrence, but hopefully I’ll do,” you said, winking at him. 
He flashed his bright smile and laughed quietly. All was right with the world again. “Baby. You put Jennifer Lawrence to shame. She can’t hold a fucking candle to you.” 
A few minutes later Yuuji was snoring softly, his head resting on your chest as you combed your fingers through his soft pink hair.

For the writing ask meme: 9, 12, 19, and 30!
Hi friend, thank you so much for the ask! Sorry for the late reply; my migraine was really bugging me earlier. It's eased up a little now so I am excited to answer! 💜💜💜 (ask based on this post)
9. What fic meant the most to you to write?
Honestly, I would have to say A Different Kind of Magic; my Kalim/Idia fanfic where Idia mentors Kalim and Jamil in learning to control their magic before it consumes them. I know Kalim and Idia are a rarepair, and I know that this fic kind of just seems like me running wild with my imagination and going crazy with the angst. To be fair, those things are pretty much true. But, it's also a lot more than that to me. It's a story about grieving, about learning to let go of the past without forgetting it, about how parents aren't perfect and family is a work in progress, about how trauma follows you no matter how hard you try to hide it, and about how sometimes you can't have everything you want even though it might break your heart. That's some of what I've been dealing with over the past couple of years and so when I wrote this fic, those were all the emotions and feelings at the forefront of my mind. That's why it's so heavy. That's why there's happy parts mixed in with the sad. That's why there's no damnation of characters that don't behave perfectly and there's forgiveness and love in the end. Because that's what I needed too. I didn't even realize how much I needed to write that fic until I was already in the thick of it, and then I had a moment where I went "Oh. Oh. Oh shit this is me this is mine this is what I feel right now this is me" and I almost cried over it that day. I usually do put a lot of myself into fics, but this one was just so different and so raw. I put a lot of my soul into it. I really love this fic; I'm happy with how it turned out and it was so cathartic to write. So, yeah, it would be the most important one to me. If all the others somehow ended up accidentally deleted, I would be sad but I would be ok as long as this one stayed.
12. What fic was the most difficult to write? Did you finish it?
Hmmm, for a singular fic I think the most challenging one for me this year was the gift fic Mistletoe Misunderstandings (a Twisted Wonderland fic where Yuu is the only one aware of the Mistletoe Kissing Tradition); simply because it was the first time I included at least one representative of each NRC dorm in one fic for Twisted Wonderland. Capturing so many different personalities was a challenge for me, and several of the characters were ones I hadn't really written yet, or had not written often, so I pushed myself a bit. I did complete it and it was a lot of fun to do! I was in love with the prompt for it, and I absolutely am happy with how it turned out!! Definitely feel I've grown as a writer, hehe.
19. Share your favorite opening line
"There are some things in the world that simply cannot be explained. There are others which do, in fact, have an explanation, but it is so ancient and so secretive it has been forgotten. Others have an explanation yet to be discovered. Which of those three apply to the little convenience store in True Cross? It is impossible to tell, as much as it is impossible to tell what came first: the portal to another world or the wall it shares a space with."
-from Inconvenience Store, my Blue Exorcist Bon/Rin Haunted Convenience Store AU! I'm not sure why, this opening just sticks in my brain so much. I was super proud of it when I posted the first chapter, and I'm still pretty proud of it! Still a work in progress, and I love every minute I get to work on it!! :D
30. What’s something that you want to write in 2024?
Ooooh there's so many things! Of course, I'm excited to write more of the Saw AU and the Bar AU, as always! But if we're talking about individual fics not in a series, I would have to say I'm really wanting to start posting my Vampire Idia x Human Kalim fic in 2024! I love the ideas I have for it and I am super excited to write more of Idia and Kalim as a couple. (Plus, @kamikazequail gave me inspiration for another vampire au; since when asked I couldn't decide if I liked Human Ortho or Vampire Ortho better...there shall be two AUs!! Mwahahaha). And I'm excited to see what the year will bring!

This might just me being tired and dumb, but I kind of get how Ace having a more supportive family would lead to isolation? Like. People who have no family to rely on form their own, and that kind of bond can be beat by very little else. There's not only possibly shared trauma, but there's probably also a shared understanding that "we all we got". It gives a weird sense of hope to see someone else in your situation, someone who relates to you even a little bit, and you want more anything in the world for them to make it out and thrive, and you can trust that they want the same for you.
So with Ace, who's trauma (that we know about) mainly comes from association and the iverblot fights, it's a bit harder to make that bond. He (assumably) got all the love and support that he was supposed to get from his family. And yeah! Sure! He can still seek it out elsewhere! But it's a thing he already has, he already has somewhere to go at the end if the day for comfort.
This is actually a theme that I'm gonna play with in my 80s fic, Deuce is lower middle class, while Yuu is just a slightly glorified version if homeless. Ace is squarely middle class, if not upper middle, he never has to really want for anything. Not like Deuce and certainly not like Yuu.
Learning how to pinch for pennies and find deals are things that makes Aces life more convenient, but it's something that Deuce and Yuu need. And that's where the divide is.
He wants to take care of his friends (he's still in denial) more than anything, but he also feels like there's this weird line he can't cross, with him on one side and Yuu and Deuce on the other. It honestly doesn't help that Yuu has a separate, small friend group outside of him and Deuce that are all in the same "Shit is completely fucked right now but by God are we gonna make it out" boat. A boat that Ace will probably never be in. Ace loves his family and is grateful, and knows exactly how much he lucked out. But he still wants to have that bond. That "the world feels like it's ending but atleast we'll be going down together" type of bond. Comforting Yuu while they cry about not having heating in the winter will never be the same as having to suffer alongside them and know they were in this together. Trying to find the cheapest possible version of a food products with Deuce and discovering knock off brands that Ace would never imagine existing (who the hell made knock off cheerios?) Will never be the same as actually having to rely on those knock off and part time sales, and feeling a sense pride that they were able to save enough money this month that they could actually buy something nice. Ace probably won't ever be on that side of the invisible line.
He'll bring them to his side though. Ace wants to take care of them more than anything. He wants them in his life more than anything. And he'll have them. No matter what he has to do to make that happen.
Sorry if I missread your post and just dropped a huge angst bomb in your inbox! I just have thoughts and there are a lot of AceYuu and ADeuce moments in chapter three and one or two of them digs into this a little.
You didn't misread my post at all I swear we are sharing custody of a braincell because this is just *chef's kiss* exactly what I was thinking.
Having that solid middle class stability and parent's who genuinely love you and each other is nothing to be ashamed of, not that I think Ace has enough humility for that, but it does mean that he has a gap in his understanding for Deuce and especially Yuu's situation. I keep thinking about how he ended up eating those tarts because he skipped a meal over worrying about Yuu and their circumstances, he cares. He is crass and rude with it but he cares! I love how you say he'll bring them to his side of the line, that's exactly how I see him thinking about it.
Ace's isolation (in my view) seems to come from how much more he values his friendship with Yuu and Deuce over literally anyone else in the school. He'd benefit from talking to Jack and Epel more, they also have solid home lives and Jack at least I think has financially stable parents, but those guys aren't his people. For better or worse, for sickness or health, Yuu and Deuce are who he is sticking it out with. He'll never say it in game, but he really does love you both, in what way is of course up to the interpretation of the player.
but you know which one we both prefer frfr

is that a yanfei pfp omg, my inner and outer yanfei main loves you oh oh oh and and and also screw that dumbass ask this anon sent about yuuka THEY ARE SO INCORRECT GRRR "y'all only like yuuka because she is a girl!1!1!1!1!1!1!"
yeah no fucking shit so many of us like her because it solidifies the place of fem!yuus in the twstverse and stops dumbass people saying "hmph. its a MALE ONLY COLLEGE why do you have a female OC?? Just make a male OC???" (obviously not every person is like this and we should still appreciate masc OCs they matter just as much mwah) but we should denounce people who are so close minded.
like mannnnn that ask made me so annoyed but your response literally summarised everything i would've wanted to put into words but a bit less violent. the audacity they had to send in that dumbass ask smh like damn bitch let people enjoy a new character? so what if it's fem!yuu? like this is one of the times twst isn't being problematic but nah people still gotta have a problem with this and not the other issues (cough cough "Monsieur pyramid" cough cough)
also yuuken was actually pretty hyped up intially did that anon just sleep through an entire period of twst tumblr fandom lmao. i remember people writing so many fics and i haven't seen anyone say jack shit but the moment it's yuuka its "Nooo you're gonna project onto her waaaah!" like pls stfu we are literally just excited for a new character joining our silly fandom and becoming the subject of either a) unimaginable fluff or b) unimaginable angst smh /j
im sorry for taking my silly anger out in your askbox (ofc none of that is directed at you cause you wrote a bomb ass response to them and honestly you really put them in their place!) but that ask just annoyed me so mf much and i been thinking over my anger of it for a day and a half now
love your fics btw I get so mf excited when you post EJFHHEJD I hope you're having a lovely day mwah mwah, feel free to ignore this ask too no pressure 💓
(_____)
NO BECAUSE I HELD MYSELF BACK, I say a lot of shit when I'm mad so it's better I hold myself back in these scenarios. But that's true, like search the Yuuken x reader tag and you'll find a sum of fanfic's, if you go to the yuuka x reader tag.. It's just me!
Sure Yuuka's hyped up, but like you said a decent chunk of it was due to the fact that her existence makes it so no one can attack fem oc's. And yeah a whole other part of the fandom simped for her, but you have got to understand that majority of the twisted wonderland fandom from my experience is homosexual.
Like I know a decent few lesbians, who write twst fanfic, so it's like not much of a shock that people simp for her a lot. And anon has to realize that fanfiction was created so you can self insert yourself in a scenario.
Like making that comment on a fanfic blog, was really fucking stupid ngl. And it seemed misogynistic from my perspective, ngl. I didn't say it because in my humble opinion that might've been "taking it too far"
Anyways, thank you for sharing your opinion, (And it's ok to rant to me as long as your not being rude abt anything) AND THANK YOU FOR ENJOYING MY WORK <3 And abt Yanfei, I've been growing her! I may main her one she gets to lvl 90!

HAHA i guess i haven't seen enough bad takes from the fandom about leona (albeit i definitely have seen some) so i get the impression that vil is mischaracterized more often on average. regardless, ive also seen a lot of fanfic characterizing vil as this emotionally constipated and constantly nagging narcissist who is incapable of showing affection and it makes me [rat clenches fist of rage]. im aware angst often draw out the worst part of a character for the feels, which in this case is vil's strict scrutiny BUT PLELALSLELADE IM SCREAMING MY TEARS ARE ON THE FLOOR.... how are you gonna ignore the scene in chapter 6 where vil literally moves past his stern housewarden persona in order to be vil schoenheit. not the actor, not the model, not the housewarden countless students look towards as a leader-- but vil schoenheit, friend of yours and ally. all to give epel, rook, and yoy; his beloved poison apple, his beloved hunter, and his beloved prefect, a hug and kiss.?? like. kuekd emfusjbfe.??? when he literally squeals for joy after getting his youth back from malleus? when he weeps as an old man? vil schoenheit IS an emotional person! he's an actor with responsibilities on his back, he's not gonna let others see him be anything but strict when the time isn't right! but the point is that he knows when to be soft and loving ESPECIALLY after his overblot!!! 3!&!$!!$!#! he cares so deeply for each and everyone of his pomefiore students and especially those closest to him-- his method of expressing his affection isn't just limited to the occasional praise or hug and kiss, he genuinely wants the best for you when he cares and he'll support you/offer help in achieving your best self! it's not just a byproduct of his need for perfection, but to love is to grow and change and metamorphosize from the flower to the succulent apple and he can see your potential. for the man who knows what it's like to never be enough, he knows you're more than. if only you try. if only you grasped your dreams with your bare hands because god does he dream of it for you. my point is that vil is genuinely one of the most loving characters, even if his ways aren't the most conventional or he may seem harsh. he's not heartless-- though im aware his reaction towards epels moment of emotional vulnerability in the vdc rehearsal gives off said impression, he's grown and changed. i doubt current vil would be so uncaring and stern still if you expressed hurt or discomfort over an austere sentiment he's said or done. if he knows it's what you need, he probably would take a softer and kinder approach. the same water that hardens the egg, softens the potato. he can learn, or perhaps he already understands that some people reach their potential differently-- especially as someone who has lived in the entertainment industry his whole lived, he may be accustomed to the unforgiving nature of its expectations BUT HES NOT ANYMORE!!! and he knows others lead a normal life outside of it, so the same approach taken to him likely wouldn't be suited for them! he won't ever stop trying to suggest betterments for your health, appearance, and outfits but if you express different sentiments he wouldn't take to forcing them onto you!! he just wants you to live your best life, because from what he knows, it brings you gratification and he WANTS you to succeed and be satisfied! im sorry i have a lot to feel about him, i just really despise seeing people overlook the caring trait of his in favor of cheap angst. for someone who has rook as his favorite i really cannot shut my zest fest mouth up about vil <|:-( love his ass
- same anon raving about vil from earlier pt.2 except im more insane
god yeah this is so true....i think about him cheering and crying after malleus restored his youth literally every day of my life he sounds so happy and relieved!!!! had to replay the scene of him kissing rook and epel and yuu like twice to process everything bc i was so !!! at him showing emotion it was so. and like him crying as an old man is mostly played for laughs but it's also so. holy shit. (also the fact that he isn't crying because he's "ugly" but because he wanted more time to play young roles before he started doing older ones.) he's so much more open and emotional in book 6 it's like he's realized he can stop being "the fairest of them all" and just start being vil. like the ice has melted!!! he's so endearing i have gotta hit him with a 2003 toyota corolla
also no this is in character for someone whose fave is rook. this is rook behavior alksjddfhalksjfhlkasdfh he would definitely be on magicam defending vil with his LIFE

i am so normal about yuu angst (lying)
i think a lot of people forget/don't know that events and vignettes take place in alternate universes and most of them contradict with the main storyline since that's way easier on the writiers. there's probably only a few you could actually match up with the main plot, and for most of those yuu is not or just barely present. which, on one hand is good for them since less chaos and idiots to deal with, but on the other hand, just makes their life a lot more dreary.
ANYWAYS yuu should overblot idc if they're magicless being completely taken away from life as you know it and forced into a world where you're a part of a minority (??? either that or magic users have one hell of a superiority complex) that didn't even exist where you're from is enough of a reason to go apeshit
RIGHT YEAH YUU SHOOD OVERBLOT my THEORY yk those blot monsters that appear behind??? or that one monster we fought in the begining??? what if those are like people that got consumed by the blot??? they could be magicless or maybe magic users that weren't saved in time, and therefore died leaving the blot to take over their body and transform them into monsters like those
IMAGINE YUU TURNING INTO ONE AHAHDHAHDUPLEASE
also yeah i would imagine that people with no magic would be considered some sort of minority

LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: Mood tbh, sometimes i can write paras and paras... some times i wanna do oneliners and just have dumb convos 
BEST TIME TO WRITE: Evenings or weekends. I work full time so my brain maybe dead weight and only want cracky discord idea exchange.  
ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): No not too much. Most of the time i try to put myself in their shoes. Venti is a archon with endless knowledge so I am his words more...aloof and playful.. Teucer is a kid who is sheltered so I play him as naive and attached at his big brother’s hip.  Yuu is just...chaotic dumb energy.... like...doesn’t get puns dumb but can outsmart the smartest kid on campus chaotic.
