Yandere Dad Gojo HCs
Platonic Yandere Father Satoru Gojo x Fem!Teen Reader
Tag List: @issamomma @repostingmyfavs @chickennugnugnug @palesweetscherryblossom
Warnings: Platonic yandere themes, NSFW (spanking punishment), infantilization, isolation, manipulation, drink drugging, chaining to bed (not sexual), grounding, tad bit of death and violence at the end (kinda sorta)
Just started watching the series. Enjoy! 🖤🤘
Master List
Tumblr media
🕶️Fucking loves to slip you notes with kissy faces which read “Daddy loves his wittle girl”.
🕶️Makes fun of you. Constantly. You can’t get away from it.
🕶️99% of the pictures on his phone are of you. The other 1%…you don’t want to know. It’s Gojo. It’s probably penis memes.
🕶️Embarrasses the hell out of you in public. Wraps you up in one arm and carries you around. Really likes to infantilize you.
🕶️Won’t teach you sorcery because why would he? You have him to protect you. That’s all you need.
🕶️Punishments: isolation, manipulation, sometimes drugs your drinks, isn’t above chaining you to your bed. Rarely does he dole out a spanking, but does it if he just can’t get through to you.
🕶️On days when you’re feeling defiant, he rests his knuckles on his cheek and asks, “Aw, what’s the matter, princess? Why the long face? You know Daddy would rather see his pretty girl with a smile.”
🕶️Will monopolize your time and ground you if he thinks you’re going out too much.
🕶️You’re not allowed to call him Gojo, Papa, Dad, or Father. It always has to be Daddy. Dems da rules. I don’t make ‘em, and he will enforce ‘em.
🕶️There’s nothing he loves more than bringing home desserts for you both to share. He wants your opinion on if the cream sweet bun is better than the chocolate sweet bun.
🕶️He loves your opinion on all things…except what you think of him when he has to drag you home when you run off.
🕶️He’s not entirely delusional, just a tad bit. Thinks you just got huffy like a little girl, like the five-year-old he thinks you are, and ran off only to get lost. Don’t worry! Daddy will track you down and carry you home. He thinks you’re only kicking and screaming in his arms because you want to walk on your own, not because you don’t want to go back. 😭✋
🕶️Thinks you’re so incapable of the smallest things. Won’t even let you hold a knife let alone cook. Doesn’t let you sew either. Needles can poke you!
🕶️Will kill for you. 100% no doubt about it. Who hurt you? Daddy will take care of it.

--------------------------------------------------------------
WACK
You startled awake at the feeling of a foreign object smacking against your face. Snapping up from your position on the couch, you looked around wildly for the source.
“Wakey wakey, (y/n)~” Yuuji smiled down on you as he went to unleash another strike onto your perplexed form.
Recovering quickly, you violently grabbed the pillow before it met its mark and ripped it from his hands, “YUUJI!”
The pinkette only laughed your anger off as you chucked the pillow back at him. A tight knot formed in your stomach as you growled at him. Frowning, you took a deep breath. There was no need to flip out on Yuuji. He was just joking.
Shaking your head you checked your phone for the time, 11:46am.
“SHIT!”
You stumbled off the couch and stuffed your phone into your pocket. The beginnings of an adrenaline rush making you spin past a taken aback Yuuji.
Yuuji stumbled and watched you with confused eyes, “Huh? What’s going on?”
You raced for the door, “No time! See you later, Yuuji!”
Yanking the door open you were quickly stopped by a firm chest. ‘Stopped’ as in slamming into someone's chest face first. You grabbed your nose bridge in pain as you glared at the offender.
Sukuna loomed over you with bored eyes, “Leaving?”
You scowled, “Yes, and it’d be nice if you could move your fat ass already.”
Sukuna smirked, “Of course. But,” a large hand moved up from his pocket.
You flinched when he snatched the base of your neck. His thumb rested on the dip of your collarbone while the rest of his hand sat comfortably behind your neck. Slowly he traced the pad of his thumb across and up the crevasse of your neck before he landed on a spot.
Caressing small circles in your skin with his thumb, Sukuna’s stare bore into your neck, “You sure you don’t wanna cover this up first?”
Your brows tightly knitted together as you slapped Sukuna’s hand away in disgust. His smug smirk instantly reminded you of the brief conversation you held with him last night.
His rough voice asking you to stay.
Skillful wandering hands. 
A sharp yet sensual bite to your sensitive neck.
You shot a hand up to your neck to cover the rediscovered bruise. Sukuna’s eyes shone bright at your flustered expression.
“Of course,” He picked up a strand of your hair and twirled it, “I wouldn't mind if you're trying to show it off.”
Snarling, you gripped your neck harder, “Get your hands off me.”
You grunted when he suddenly tugged on your hair, “You weren’t complaining last night, rat.”
In an instant you swiped at him, just barely grazing his skin, “I’ll flay you alive, bastard.”
A dangerous smirk showed off his sharp canines, “I’d like to see you try.”
You let out a frustrated groan as you flung your hands up in defeat, “I don’t have time for this you pink haired bastard!”
You recklessly shoved past him while grumbling curses at him underneath your breath. Wicked laughter only mocked your late departure as you scrambled into your apartment.
Fucking bastard.
Taking a deep breath you quickly ran into your room and grabbed the first pants and shirt you saw. The colorful loose fitting sweats barely matched your poorly picked out shirt.
Running around your apartment like a mad woman you brushed your socks, ate your teeth, and combed a granola bar.
Wait- 
You brushed your teeth, combed your hair, threw day old socks on, then grabbed a granola bar as a quick breakfast.
Throwing on sneakers, you raced out of your apartment. As soon as your foot entered the hallway you internally groaned at the sudden need to glance over at a certain door. 
The expectation of Sukuna still standing at his door waiting for you wrapped around you like a blanket, suffocating you. Against your better judgment you took a hesitant peek over at Sukuna’s apartment. 
His door stood tauntingly still. The only indication of anyone else living on your apartment’s floor was the muffled noise of pots and pans clattering. Yuuji was probably making breakfast for the two of them.
You pressed your lips together. Why did you even think Sukuna would wait for you? It’s not like he had an obligation to speak with you. Yet, you couldn’t help the small prick in your heart at Sukuna’s disappearance.
Shaking away your thoughts you made haste to the elevator which took you down to your building's parking garage. The air was chilly as you stepped out into the concrete fortress. 
It was to be expected. The winter months were beginning to wrap up as the year moved along.
Hell, even March was closing in. 
The thought made you frown. Just a couple more weeks and you’d be visiting your parents for your scheduled family vacation. It was tradition to take a ‘family spring break’. 
Jumping in your car, you sighed at the thought. You hadn’t seen them in person since you first moved into your apartment almost a year ago… when your lessons first started.
You clenched your steering wheel hard. How disappointed would they be if they found out you still hadn’t even made it a month yet?
Checking your car's clock you cursed, 12:05pm. Your lesson started at 12pm. Anxiously, you pressed your foot down on the gas harder.
This was the third time this week you were going to be late to one of your scheduled meetings, and you knew they were catching on. You shuddered at what a certain blond would say to you.
Arriving at a quaint building you took in its familiar brick exterior. The place looked more like a college dorm facility than a professional rehabilitation center. Though, the building was next to the border of the local campus which explained its college look. 
You pressed your lips together tightly, your expression contorting to match your inner anxiety. The thought of being so close to the main campus made you queasy. Finding the courage to get out, you slammed your car door shut and trotted inside the building.
Signing in at the reception desk, you gave the old receptionist a forced smile. The elder lady beamed at you with a genuine grin in return, “Late again I see miss (l/n)!”
You let out a hoarse laugh, “Yep…”
Uncomfortably ending the conversation you eventually made your way over to the intimidating wooden doors that led to the group discussion room. 
Reluctantly, you ripped one of the familiar doors open. Upon entering you were met with spinning heads and speculating stares.
Silence filled the room as you stood awkwardly by the door, unmoving. You chewed on the skin of your mouth when a voice finally acknowledged you.
“Miss (l/n). I’m glad you could make it.”
You flinched at his stoic voice, “My bad, Sir. I had a late night.”
The blond man crossed his legs and pushed his glasses up with his pointer and thumb, “Just like the past few nights?”
You cleared your throat. The feeling of eyes on all sides of you bore into your soul.
“Why don’t you have a seat, Miss (l/n)?”
“Y-Yes.”
--------------------------------------------------------------
You internally cheered when the meeting had finally adjourned. Stretching your stiff limbs you were quick to grab your stuff and get the hell out of there.
“(y/n).”
You turned around and forced a smile, “Nanami.”
The older man sighed, “Come into my office.”
You clenched your teeth, “Of course.”
Following behind the taller blond you frowned. You knew exactly where this conversation was going.
Nanami opened the door to his office and held it for you. You shot him a mumbled thanks before you slumped into one of the leather chairs that sat across from his desk. 
Keeping your eyes straight ahead, you didn’t bother to look at your surroundings. You had been in this room enough times to know every detail in it. 
From the stupid stress balls with smiley faces on his desk to the ever growing collection of diplomas on his walls. You couldn’t forget about the eye rolling ‘hang in there’ poster with a doe eyed little puppy.
However, Nanami wasn’t a full time anger management coach as hard as that was to believe. His full time job was working at the university as a psychology and criminal justice professor. His side gig was dealing with unorthodox people… like you.
Nanami slowly crossed the room and sat down in his brown leather chair. He clasped his hands in front of him and waited for you to speak.
It was always like this. He knew that you understood what you did wrong. So, instead of pointless questions he allowed your guilt to spill the beans for you.
You sighed heavily, not wanting to argue with him today, “Alright I get it. I was late three times this week.”
You waved your hands around dramatically, “But it’s not like that even means anything. I’ve just been busy.”
You could feel the anger in the pit of your stomach heat up, “What right do you have to judge me?! It’s not like you're labeled some freak who needs help!”
A loud silence flooded the room. 
Nanami sighed, “As I suspected.”
Your eyes widened at your mistake, “N-No I didn’t mean that! It’s just that I've been stressed. I swear to you I’m doing a lot better!”
His gaze held your own, “Do you understand the amount of money your parents have put forth into this program?”
You flinched, “Of course I understand-”
“Then why do you not act like it?”
You bit your lip at his question, “I do, I’ve been doing better-”
Nanami held up a hand to silence you, “You had been getting better (y/n). You were on the right track.”
Every syllable he pronounced made you inch back in shame.
“For the past month I have observed a sudden change in your behavior. You’ve been less receptive to the lessons and even disregard coming on time.”
You clutched your hands together in your lap, “I know.”
“So what is it?”
You looked at him confused, “What?”
Nanami frowned, “What changed in your life that made you angry again?”
Flashes of Sukuna hit you like a brick. That fucking bastard did this to you. He was the reason you were getting yelled at. That piece of-
“You're blaming someone else aren't you?”
You jumped at his statement, “He’s a part of the cause! Of course he’s to blame!”
“Accountability, (y/n). We discussed this earlier this week if you would’ve paid attention.”
You clenched your teeth together harder, your knuckles turning white as you clutched the chair's arm rests, “It’s just…been hard.”
“What has been?”
“Living next to some scum bastard I can’t stand to look at! Everyday I’ve had an encounter with him! I can’t have a moment's rest for god's sake!”
Nanami threw you a look before grabbing a happy blue stress ball. He handed the worn ball to you expressionless. You angrily took the dumb ball and squeezed the life out of it.
Counting down, you took a breath, “I understand that I have definitely started some of the fights. But you wouldn’t understand how infuriating he is. It’s like he does it on purpose!”
Nanami nodded, “It hasn’t gotten physical yet I assume?”
You felt your stomach drop. Vivid flashbacks of Sukuna’s head bouncing off the door entered your mind. The sick satisfaction you got from the thunk of his skull hitting the hard wood. Suddenly, the sound of loud sirens entered your ears as you tried to push away more memories.
“No.”
Nanami hummed, “Good, then you're still on the right track. As much as I’d hate to remind you, we wouldn’t want another incident to extend your stay here. You're lucky that girl dropped the charges.”
You squeezed your eyes shut, flashes of red and blue starting to form, “I know.”
“(y/n).”
You forced yourself to look at him.
“Although you have been slipping lately, that is nothing to be afraid of. Relapsing is easy, that is why you are here.”
You clenched the ball harder.
“Do you remember the first day you came here?”
Did you remember? Of course you did. You practically assaulted him in his own office.
You laughed, “I think seeing you here was more of a shocker than having to come.”
A faint smile made its way onto his face, “(y/n) I want you to come back.”
You raised a brow, “I’m already here?”
Nanami shook his head, “No, come back to college.”
You froze, “W-What?”
“I want you to return back to college and finish out your degree. You were only months away from graduating when you dropped out.”
The stress ball in your hand morphed around your fist, “I’m not allowed on campus anymore.”
You shot daggers into his glasses, “You know that.”
“Online.”
Nanami straightened his back, “Finish your courses online and continue your dream.”
You casted your gaze to the floor, “Why should I?”
“Why wouldn’t you?”
You clenched your teeth, “Why do you even care?”
“You were my best student.”
The ball in your hand blurred as tears dotted your eyes, “…I don’t know if I can.”
Your throat felt constricted, “I-I want to but-” Your breath came out ragged, “What if-”
“Prove to me you want this.”
You lifted tear filled eyes to an outstretched hand. Nanami held a single coin. A 30 day chip.
“Prove to me you’d do anything to go back to school. Even earning this. If you can manage at least one month I will talk personally with President Masamichi to allow you to finish out all your classes and graduate. No questions asked.”
You stared at him with wide eyes. The coin beckoned you to take it. To get away from your dead end job and become something.
“It’s your choice (y/n).”
You took a deep breath and snatched the coin from his hand, “I want to go back. No matter what it takes.”
Nanami nodded, “I look forward to see you back in my class.”
You laughed lightly, “I’m sure you’ll regret that like the first time.”
The blond merely shook his head, “Not once did I.”
A warm feeling filled your chest. The coin heated your palm as your tears slowly dried. Could you really save your ruined life?
“Ah, one more thing,” you watched as he pulled out a thick Manila folder.
“You’ve missed so much during these past few days that you’ll need to extend your stay today. Though unfortunately this means I will have to work overtime.”
Your jaw dropped as he began reading off papers. His lecture not stopping for any of your small pleas. 
This guy-
--------------------------------------------------------------
You walked into your apartment exhausted. Mindlessly throwing yourself onto your couch you yelled into a pillow, allowing the stress of the day to leak out of you.
You had to stay two extra hours in Nanami’s office listening to every part of the lectures you missed. The man didn’t even let you go to the bathroom.
It didn’t help that after you finally escaped from your lessons you had to stop by the grocery store once you remembered you had no food in the house. 
Your luck only ran out more when you got stuck in rush hour traffic. You sat in bumper to bumper traffic for three hours trying to make it through the city only to find out the store was closed for technical maintenance.
What the hell did that even mean? It was like the universe was trying to get you to fail already.
Pouting, you rested your chin on your pillow and scrolled through your phone. A quick answer back to all your messages left you bored after a few minutes. Glancing at your phone’s clock, your eye twitched, 6:45pm
You sighed heavily and flipped onto your side. It was well past dinner time and you didn’t even get to eat yet. A loud stomach growl signified the need for you to finally get up.
Scraping yourself off your couch you made your way over to your open kitchen. You were certain you at least had one cup of Kraft Mac And Cheese left.
Flipping on the lightswitch, the sound of a flickering light caught your attention. Abruptly, the lights in your kitchen went out along with every other source of electricity following in suit.
You clenched your teeth together and opened your fridge. A pit in your stomach formed at the sight of a scarce fridge engulfed in darkness. The damn thing had turned off as well. Trying your stove you cursed when it also made no indication of being on.
You came to the sudden conclusion that everything in your apartment had been turned off. Fuck.
You weighed your options. Stay home and starve for the night with the hopes of your electricity coming on by morning. Or, drag your sorry ass over to Sukuna's and see if his electricity was up and running.
If his wasn’t you could report the issue much faster if it was a building issue rather than just your own apartment. But did you really want to talk with Sukuna? Especially after the day you just had?
Groaning you rubbed your brows. Screw it. Might as well make it a test of faith for the next month to come.
Swiftly exiting your apartment you took notice of the lit up hallway. At least now you knew the entire building’s power wasn’t out.
Knocking on Sukuna’s door you waited for familiar footsteps. No answer.
You knocked louder. Nothing. 
The quiet buzz of the hallway's lights mocked your pathetic attempts.
Growing agitated you went to bang on the door with your fists before you caught yourself. Calm down. Breath.
After a quick count down from 10, you gently knocked again. Faint rummaging flowed from the door's crack but there was still no answer.
You clenched your hand in a fist. Why did you even care at this point? You knew the building's power was still on.
You should just go to the reception desk and report-
Sukuna’s door leisurely opened to reveal a figure you knew all too well. You swallowed hard at his lack of attire.
Sukuna’s tattooed chest was on display as gray sweatpants hung dangerously low on his hips. Your eyes trailed his pronounced v-line before you snapped them back up to his eyes. Shit.
“What?”
Sukuna crossed his arms and leaned against his door frame. You watched as his arms flexed naturally showing off the thick lines that decorated his skin.
You chewed your lip, “Is your power on?”
“Obviously.”
Your jaw twitched, “Mines off. Can I borrow your kitchen?”
What the hell were you saying?? You didn’t even want to talk to him now you wanted to use his kitchen??
Sukuna snorted, “Why should I?”
You glared at him, “Listen, asshole. All my shit went out, you can at least spare me your damn microwave.”
Sukuna rolled his eyes before his pushed off his door frame. You grunted when he carelessly shoved past you and walked over to your door.
“What are you doing?”
Your brain spun as Sukuna abruptly walked into your apartment like he owned the place.
“Fixing your problem so you don’t bother me.”
You had little time to rebuttal his insult as you internally worried about the disarray of your apartment. The place looked like a hurricane went through there.
“W-Wait a minute!”
You ran after his form pathetically holding your hand out to stop him. Embarrassment filled your face as you watched him look around your apartment in disgust.
“You live like this?”  
You growled, “I haven’t had time to clean, dick!”
Sukuna scoffed, “Sure. Where’s your Breaker Box?”
Composing yourself, you led him to a small room near the front of your apartment. The ‘room’ was barely the size of a closet, Sukuna’s form just managed to fit.
The box sat attached to the back wall along with long forgotten brooms and other random items you shoved in there. Immediately, you heard Sukuna tsk before he retreated out of the small space.
“It looks like everything is on. You must’ve blown a fuse.”
Sukuna scratched his neck, “Have the desk worker call you an electrician in the morning, for now you can stay at mine.”
You nodded, “Okay. Wait what-”
Sukuna didn’t bother waiting for your answer before he started walking back to his own apartment.
You stood in place, jaw to the floor. Did he just ask you to stay the night?

actually no, you know what? i'm still not off my divine soul sorcerer dark urge bs, here:
Gale sees a goblin sneaking up on Durge a bit too late, only for them to whip around, grab the goblin by the face, and engulf them in necrotic energy. Far too strong for a cantrip. When he asks them about it later, they can only shrug. Another mystery from their past, they suppose.
Back against the wall, Wyll blasts an enemy with eldritch energy, pushing them right into Durges' range. Their attack misses, and suddenly Durge is engulfed in a flurry of movement, like they're repeating the attack backwards. He blinks, and Durge is standing over their foe, teeth bared in a hunter's imitation of a smile. When he thinks on it at camp, he can only shake his head. Some trick of the light. Or Mizora's, most like.
Shadowheart grits her teeth and readies a mass healing word (nothing about this fight has gone their way, but they have to keep pushing). Durge lays a hand on her shoulder, whispers "Let me help you with that," and feels a divine energy surge through her. Not a shadowy stillness, or a comforting glow, but a ravenous ache that demands blood, blood, BLOOD.
The group gets their second wind.

Seasonal theme: Magical summer (beginning)
This summer will be a season of wonders and enchantments, of spells and wizards - a magical summer!
Here is a list of beings, entities, objects and concepts you can check out if you want to add some magic to your summer:
In the myths, legends and so-called “real” world...
In the Arthurian literature: Merlin the enchanter, most famous of all wizards, derived from the legendary Welsh figure of Myrddin. Morgan le Fay, the ever-so-ambiguous enchantress of Arthurian mythos. Excalibur, the greatest and most iconic of all magical swords.
In Greek mythology: Hecate, the goddess of magic and witches. Circe, the divine enchantress of the Odyssey. Medea, the most frightening sorceress of the Greek legends. Lamia, a Greco-Roman bogeywoman that medieval times assimilated with various monsters and witches.
In Norse mythology: seidr, the old Norse magic, and its patron goddess Freya. Loki, expert shapeshifter and trickster supreme.
Christian legends, myths and beliefs: the Malleus Maleficarum, the unfamous manual used by many witch-hunters during the great witch hunts throughout Europe - a manual which was not accepted by the Church, unlike what many people believe. The Ars Goetia, both the art of invoking demons and the grimoire containing the secrets of said art. Astaroth, a demon often associated today with witchcraft. The famous witches sabbath, that was the great terror and fantasy of devil-fearing men of the Middle-Ages and the Renaissance. The paintings of Goya, which illustrated the various superstitions and beliefs surrounding witches in Spain.
The folklore of the British Isles: the British Grimalkin, with its cousins the English King of Cats and the Celtic Cat-sith. Lugh, the Irish Celtic god that mastered all of the arts, including magic.
Vaïnämöinen, the great bard-enchanter of Finland, and one of the sorcerer-heroes of the Kalevala alongside the magical blacksmith Ilmarinen, all fighting against the evil witch-queen Louhi.
In fairytales: the fairytales of the brothers Grimm brought many of the famous fairytale witches, from the evil queen with her magic mirror in Snow-White to the witch living in a house of bread and sugar in Hansel and Gretel. In Slavic fairytales, the great and iconic witch is the dreaded Baba Yaga. The French fairytales also brought the archetype of the fairy godmother: Cinderella, Toads and Diamonds, Donkeyskin, Cunning Cinders, The Hind in the Woods/The White Doe, Prince Marcassin... And let’s not forget Carabosse, the wicked fairy of the fairytale Princess Mayblossom, that became thanks to Tchaïkovsky’s ballet the old antagonistic fairy of Sleeping Beauty. Plus: the seven-league boots, one of the most famous magical items of French fairytales, appearing in Little Thumbling or The Orange Tree and the Bee.
The world of alchemy: the famous philosopher’s stone, elixir of life, and panacea that formed the ultimate goals of alchemists. Hermes Trismegistus, the mythological patron and ancestor of all alchemists (himself a mix of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth). Nicolas Flamel, the 14th century book-seller everybody believed to be the discovered of the philosopher’s stone.
Some famous grimoires of our world: The Book of Abramelin, a tome of sacred Jewish magic. The Lesser Key of Solomon, a demonology grimoire of the 17th century inspired by the older book of sacred spells known as The Key of Solomon. The very famous duo of French grimoires known as the Grand Albert and Petit Albert. The Book of Shadows, a type of grimoire originally part of the Wicca religion, and that became popularized in America media thanks to the television series Charmed.
Principles, beliefs, personalities and practices of our world (which, as you will note, frequently mix magic with religion and folk-healing): Nostradamus, the great French prophet. The magi of Persia, Zoroastrian priests and astronomers that gave birth to the concept of the “mage” as we know it today. The original mana - not the video game mechanic, but the supernatural force of Oceanian beliefs. The Celtic druids and the most famous of their sacred sites: Stonehenge. The marabout, a type of Muslim holy man from Africa to whom was attributed some magical powers in folk-belief. The shamans of Siberia, the ones from which the very principle of “shamanism” was codified in the West. The medecine people of the First Nations in Northern America. The sangomas of Southern Africa, one of the most famous types of African “witch-doctors”. The Haitian Vodou and the Louisiana/New-Orleans Voodoo, folk-religions and magic beliefs deriving from the Vodun religion of West Africa (not to be confused with their various “cousins”, such as the Vodu of Cuba, the Jejé of Brazil or the Hoodoo).
More general magic tropes and concepts: the magic potion. The flying broomstick. The magic wand, or its variation the wizard’s staff. The familiar of the witch. The trope of the wizard duel, which, despite its prominence in modern literature and contemporary folk songs, has roots in ancient mythological fights and legendary magic hunts. The tempestarii, or the belief in weather-influencing, weather-changing sorcerers.

WIP Sunday
This snippet is part of a 5-times-1-time fic with Agi and Astarion. It's very NSFW lol.
“Agi darling, I had Karlach test this chair with Lae’zel on one thigh and Shadowheart on the other. We’ll be fine!” Astarion explained for what he thought was the hundredth time. He remembered another spawn (Leon, I believe) saying that chair sex was good for women like my beautiful, voluptuous girl. Soooo that’s why I had the ladies test this chair for its sturdiness. “Agnetha dear?”
His lover stared at him like he grew a second head. “Alright, let’s just say that the chair won’t break,” It won’t but go ahead. “What if I hurt you? There’s a pretty significant weight difference between us, if I’m being honest.”
He raised a white eyebrow. “My love, I’m already dead---your fat ass isn’t going to kill me.” He drawled; eyes locked onto hers.
She opened and closed her mouth several times.
“Darling, you’re not a fish.” He teased. “Now granted, you’d be a delightful fish, but…” He walked to her and reached for her face. “If you don’t wish to try this, then it’s fine. But please know you won’t hurt me or break the chair. I promise.” Believe me. Please believe me. If I thought for a moment this wouldn’t be alright, then I wouldn’t have even considered it. You deserve all the pleasure I can give you. You deserve it all.
“If you’re sure, then…I can give it a try.” She gave him a quick kiss before they undressed, and Astarion sat down. Lowering herself slowly, Agnetha squeezed her eyes shut as he entered her. “O-oh fuck me…gods…Star!” My face is in her tits! There’s no better place to be. Once he was fully hilted inside her, she began to rock her hips and moaned wantonly. She never does this. I am full of the very best ideas! She cupped the back of his head, her fingers running through his curls. “This feels…so good, love…” Her eyes then burst open, as if she was remembering something important. “Are you—”
He pressed several kisses to her jaw and neck as his hands roamed her back. “Sh, sh, sh, none of that now. Take your pleasure, sweetness. There’s a good girl.” I said the magic words, which means she’ll be coming apart shortly. My darling girl…

Not me detecting tropes again lol
Speaking of, I know I joked that they've learned what worked with Shabriri from Mico (themes of eyes and insanity + "ascending" by mass sacrifice), but actually Navlaan too, if not even more so?
Navlaan says that the sorcerer was looking for new forms of magic but instead "created" him, which does have the vibe of accidentally ending with split personality during experiments (Jekyll and Hyde vibe), however, description of Scraps of Life says this:
An esoteric spell created by Navlaan, the infamous exiled sorcerer. Awakens the souls of the long-buried dead. The heretic Navlaan was executed along with his entire village, and the mere utterance of his name became a crime. Some say it was because he sought to restore the banned art of resurrection.
Basically bro used to be his own person, existing probably long before this sorcerer or at least independently, and was another victim of cancel culture dshfdshjfsd So, the line "But instead, he created me" would mean sort of rebirth by possessing this sorcerer. It is not direct possession as in, controlling the body as a puppet, but neither a personality born from within the 'original' person (typically from dark and repressed emotions). But it is a secret third thing; say, he barely had recollection and semblance of his original self after death, so completing the otherwise almost-blank state and filling the gaps from what was lost with the memories and feelings of the host is as good as being born as a new person.
And it IS kind of like Shabriri, too! Except, Yura is certainly no longer present in the body, whereas the original sorcerer still appears when the player is in the human state to beg them to stay away for their own sake. But Shabriri also 'adapted' to what Yura used to be, like suddenly being able to fight the same way as him (with the only addition of Frenzy incantations), and Ronin Set is described as "armour of man that calls himself Shabriri".
As for Navlaan, some of his grudges seem like they came from the sorcerer rather than his existence within this vessel, and he unknowingly carries them out. He also describes the sorcerer as "naive" when he is pretty much naive himself now; he simply trusts that we killed people just because we bring their things! Also description of Chaos Set says "Robe worn by a chaos sorcerer. He calls himself Navlaan, now", so whereas original sorcerer's name is never learned, it is probably now abandoned and not relevant as Navlaan 'overrode' the original. Again, really interesting concept of two people that become an amalgamation upon merging (that I tooooootaly didn't use for what happened with Logarius and the King, and that is toooootaly not what likely happened with Aldrich after he ate Gwyndolin.......)
+ Also cool thing that Shabriri and Navlaan both messed with something forbidden and forbidden for a good reason, and both were incredibly hated! Shabriri is "the most reviled man in history" and Navlaan was so hated that you could not even mention him! I am sorry for bringing this topic often but I just really like to analyse how Fromsoft invents 'a type of a guy' and reuses blueprints later without being unoriginal about it, it is just fascinating

。・:*˚:✧⤷Chapter II : INFURIATED
--------------------------------------------------------------
Hiding from your problems was one thing, but hiding from someone who lived directly next door was another. After your little ‘session’, guilt struck you like a truck. There was no way you could look Sukuna in the eyes in your current state.
So, here you were today sitting at home like always but with one thing different. Obnoxiously loud rock music barreled through your apartment like a hurricane. Your walls shook vigorously with every base drop.
Now normally you’d give your sweetheart neighbor a pleasant surprise visit, but not today. You had gone two days in a row without seeing his face, and you definitely needed another week to even hear his voice.
Cringing, you thought back to how you've been practically sneaking out of your own apartment when leaving for work. It was routine at this point, poke your head out, look both directions, and make a b-line for the elevator. You were surprised with how well it was actually working out.
Sighing in defeat you swaddled yourself with a blanket on your couch in some hope of drowning out the music. You groaned when you noticed the music somehow getting louder.
That’s it. Whipping up to your feet, you haphazardly threw your blanket to the ground and stormed over to your door. Practically tearing the door off its hinges, you entered the hall virtually frothing at the mouth.
Your anger carried you over to Sukuna’s door with a quickly extinguishing confidence. You stood before the white door and bit your lip. You’d be able to look at him, right? You didn’t even really do anything bad, right? 
Letting out a deep sigh you facepalmed. You were by no means a coward, but right now you felt like one. Raising your fist to knock, you held it still in another moment of hesitation. Should you just suck it up and go home?
However, fate had chosen for you as the door suddenly swung open up to a taken aback Sukuna. His eyebrows rose at your smaller figure, hand still lingering in the air.
You were quick to put your hand down, “Could you turn down the music?”
Sukuna leered at you, “No yelling this time?”
Flashes from two days ago entered your brain. Sukuna’s rough voice, deep and dangerously addictive.
Shamefully, you bore your eyes into the floor and mumbled, “Just turn the damn music down.”
You heard Sukuna shift above you, a thoughtful hum passing through his lips, “I can’t hear you.”
You shoved your heels into the ground, “Turn down the music, please.”
Sukuna whistled, “And a 'please' too? What’s gotten into you, piggy?”
You felt like you could tear your hair out. Looking back up at him through your lashes you scowled at him. His red eyes scanned your face with such amusement you wanted to punch him again.
“Turn down the fucking music, scum.”
Sukuna smiled wildly. You noted how his pearly white teeth held a slight sharpness to them. Like a predator.
“No.”
You snarled at his pleased expression. What the hell did you even expect? In the spur of the moment an idea shot through your head as you glanced behind him. His dreaded speaker sat passively on his kitchen counter, music still flowing out of it in waves.
“Move.”
Sukuna raised his brow before you shoved his body aside and stormed in. You’d never been in his place before, only catching glimpses whenever you fought.
The room smelled faintly of a sharp woodsy scent, something you recognized but weren’t sure from where. Scanning the entrance you noticed his place was the same layout as your own apartment only flipped.
It was surprisingly neat too. The entire place was organized without a single dish in the sink. You cringed when you thought back to the state of your own apartment. He put you to shame. 
A large hand hastily grabbed the back of your collar and pulled, choking you in the process, “Where the hell do you think you're going?”
You grabbed Sukuna’s hand and tried to pry it off, “If your so incapable of turning down your own music your poor considerate neighbor will help.”
Sukuna pulled your form closer to his chest, “I don’t think so, rat.”
You struggled against his grasp causing his other arm to wrap tightly around your waist. You cursed under breath at the secure hold.
Sukuna leaned down into your ear and chuckled, “Listen if you wanted in so bad you could’ve just asked.”
You swallowed hard at your predicament. Pressed up against him, you could feel the outline of his toned chest engulfing your back. His arms felt impossibly muscular, trapping you tightly with them. 
Slowly, the hand that fit snugly against your waist made its way higher, directly pushing underneath your breasts. 
Your heart was beating so fast you could hear the thumping in your ears, “Get off.”
Sukuna’s other hand moved from the collar of your shirt to roughly grab your chin. Harshly pulling your face up, he grinned at your panicked expression, “What if I don’t want to?”
Your face burned at his proximity. Too close. Trying to pull your face away, you winced when Sukuna’s calloused hands squeezed your face harder. The crescent of his nails dug into your skin creating small droplets of blood.
Trying to ignore the ache in your cheeks, you glared into his sharpened eyes. You could swear their eerie red shone brighter. Swallowing, you watched him glance from your eyes to your lips then back to your eyes again.
You internally scolded yourself as you found your eyes doing the same. However, you lingered on his lips for far longer. They looked soft. The curve of his cupid's bow looked as if they might even fit perfectly with yours. 
Mindlessly, you felt yourself lean forward into him, eyes still locked on his lips. How would he taste? Minty? Or perhaps sweeter?
You bit your lip and forced yourself to draw back, this was not the time to be seduced by your neighbor. A dark chuckle made you return your eyes back up to deep red ones.
“Scared of a little kiss?” Sukuna pulled you forwards, lips just grazing your own, “Or just scared you’ll like it.”
Your body shivered as you closed your eyes, “Fuck off.”
SLAM
“BROTHERRRRRR!!”
You flinched so hard at the new voice you thought your soul left your body. Tearing your face away from Sukuna’s grip, you tried to shove him off you. Sukuna’s grip reluctantly gave way as he turned his attention to the new intruder.
“Yuuji,” you swallowed hard at the venom that laced Sukuna’s voice, “Why are you here so early?”
Yuuji merely scratched the back of his neck laughing off his brother’s bitterness, “I figured since I was late last time I’d come a bit early today!”
Sukuna rubbed his face with a deep sigh, “Of course you did.”
You sucked in your cheeks at an oblivious Yuuji. You had to thank the kid though. He just saved your sorry ass from becoming a certain playboy’s next victim of the night.
Pouting at his brother, Yuuji’s eyes eventually found you, “Hey (y/n)! How’s it going?”
You shrugged, “Better now.”
Glancing over, you side eyed an irritated Sukuna. He glared down at you with disdain as you threw him a fake sympathetic look.
“Are you here for dinner too?” Yuuji smiled brightly as he pulled two full grocery bags from behind his back.
“No-” “Yep!”
You quickly cut off Sukuna with a malicious grin. Hey, if you had to suffer through his music he could afford you a meal. 
A large hand started shoving your back towards the door, “No. She was just leaving.”
You dug your feet into the ground, pushing against him, “Hey!”
“What!? No way! You have to stay!” Yuuji jumped in front of your path waving his arms frantically, “We have more than enough to spare anyway!”
Sukuna’s hands moved to grip your shoulders tightly, “I’m feeling pretty hungry.”
“Pleaseeeeeee,” Yuuji held his hands out in prayer.
You flinched as Sukuna’s grip strengthened, “Fine. She can stay for just dinner.”
Yuuji shot his hands up in the air in victory, “Yes! Let’s get cooking!”
You smiled at his cheery form. He was just as bright as the first time you ran into him.
--------------------------------------------------------------
A soft knock rang out through your apartment as you sat on your couch painting your nails. Sighing heavily you set your polish down and shook your hand to dry it. Blowing on your freshly drying nails you opened the door to see…a familiar figure???
Your eyes widened at the sight of a tinier Sukuna. Though, this one had light brown eyes that looked as if they were melted gold. His hair was messier too, with black roots below his matching pink hair which contrasted with Sukuna’s pure pink look.
In some sick coincidence his face sported two tiny birthmarks under his eyes that matched the two tattoos under Sukuna’s eyes. There was no doubt he was another spawn from wherever the hell Sukuna crawled out of.
You stared at his form in a stupor, “Uh, hello?”
The boy’s eyes widened in confusion as he frantically looked at you then down to a scrap of paper in his hand, “Uhhhh, sorry I think I have the wrong apartment!”
You laughed at his troubled expression, “I take it you're related to another certain pink haired gentleman?”
You gagged in your mind. Gentleman your ass.
The boy ruffled his hair and laughed tiredly, “Right on the mark.”
You pointed to the door next to yours, “One over.”
He followed your finger and smiled brightly, “Ah, thank you so much…”
You lifted your hand, “(y/n) (l/n).”
“Itadori Yuuji! I’m here visiting my brother,” He firmly grasped your hand and shook it.
You felt taken aback by the strange interaction. It felt like you were in some alternate dimension with a normal well behaved Sukuna. 
“Well Yuuji, I must say you are far more pleasant than that brother of yours, that’s for sure.” 
Yuuji laughed, “I get that a lot.”
You matched his smile with your own, “It was nice meeting you, Yuuji. I hope to see you around some time, it’s nice to have a civil conversation for once.”
Why couldn’t this one have moved in next door?
“Same here, see you around (y/n)!” Yuuji threw you a salute before spinning on his heel.
You watched as he trudged over to the correct apartment and knocked. Poor kid, having to deal with that asshole for a brother. Not bothering to have another altercation with Sukuna, you quickly retreated into your apartment and returned to your nails. Grumbling when you noticed you managed to smear one.
--------------------------------------------------------------
You smiled fondly at the memory as you watched Yuuji cook from the kitchen’s island counter. To your astonishment you managed to run into him far more than you thought you would after your first encounter. He surprisingly visited Sukuna several times a week. 
Soon enough, you managed to find out he went to the local university as a student. He lived in the freshman dorms but stayed with Sukuna whenever he wanted some alone time. You grimised at the thought of Sukuna being a safe haven. As if.
Speaking of the devil, Sukuna stood next to Yuuji cutting up tomatoes for the spaghetti sauce. As much as you liked watching him slave away for you, you figured you might as well help out as a courtesy for Yuuji.
You called out from the counter, “Are you sure you don’t need any help?”
Yuuji hummed, “You're our guest, no need to worry!”
Sukuna scoffed next to him, “It’s better if she doesn’t get her hands on the food anyway. Who knows what she’d put in it.”
You frowned, “I’ll have you know I’m a fantastic cook!”
Sukuna turned to you with a sly grin, “Is that why I constantly hear your fire alarm going off?”
Clenching your fist on the table you snarled, “Some foods are better burnt!”
His eyebrows turned inward, “Like what?”
You chewed on your lip looking for an answer before you abruptly stood up and walked over to him. Snagging up a knife, you held your hand out for a tomato.
“I’ll show you how good I am.”
Sukuna held your gaze tauntingly before he dropped a small tomato in your hand, “Then show me.”
You huffed and set the tomato down on the cutting board. Slicing, you went slow trying to make all the cuts even. You scowled as your plan failed, only making your cuts even more uneven. 
Turning to Sukuna, you looked to see how he was faring. There was no way he was doing that much better than you. 
Your eye twitched in disbelief as you watched him cut through tomatoes at the speed of light, each slice perfect. 
Sukuna side eyed you, “Need some help?”
You growled and slammed your knife into the tomato harder, “No.”
You halted your movements when you heard an annoyed sigh and the drop of a knife. Casually, Sukuna placed himself behind you and wrapped his arms around either side of you. His left hand immediately grabbed your own and helped you hold the tomato steady while his right assisted your cutting.
“No need to take it so slow,” Sukuna lifted your hand and brought it down firmly, “A good rhythm is all you need.”
You grumbled and followed his movements, the feeling of his body becoming a lot more apparent.
Sukuna leaned into your ear, “Just like that.”
You flushed as he sped up his pace, slicing the tomato faster. Your senses felt on overdrive as you drowned in his cologne, something you ignored earlier in favor of staring at his lips. You held the knife harder trying to ignore the growing heat in your stomach.
“You're doing so good for me.”
The knife sliced through the final chunk with blaringly loud ringing. You felt like you were on fire. 
“Good girl.”
Keeping your gaze on the chopped tomato, you prayed Yuuji was too preoccupied to look to his left. But just as quickly as your tomato was cut, Sukuna’s warmth was gone.
Wordlessly, you glanced to your left at a humming Yuuji. You flinched in surprise when you noticed him glance over as well. He threw you a cheeky grin and raised his eyebrows, eyes darting between you and Sukuna. 
Your jaw twitched as you playfully punched him, “Quite, brat. I just needed help with cutting.”
Yuuji smiled smugly, “Sureeeee~”
Another punch to his arm sent him into a laughing fit. Little brat. You were starting to see the Sukuna in him right now.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Laying on your stomach on the living room floor, your mouth was watering at the smell exiting the kitchen. You sighed pitifully as your stomach groaned. How much longer?
The blessing ding of a timer made your head snap up in the direction of the oven. An equally carnivorous Yuuji rocketed through the kitchen and grabbed a testing spoon. You watched fervently as he tasted the sauce.
With a hungry grin Yuuji turned to you, “It is complete.”
You jumped to your feet and made a mad dash to the kitchen, “Finally!”
Like starved animals you both hastily grabbed plates and began dumping pounds of freshly made spaghetti on them. Yuuji snagged a pitcher of water before he claimed a seat at the table as you followed in suit.
Excitedly, Yuuji lifted his filled fork up to his mouth only for a hand to grab his head. Sukuna frowned at him, “You didn’t save any for me, brat.”
Hearing his words you looked at Yuuji and then the empty pot. Sheepishly scratching the back of your head, you grabbed a spare plate and began dumping your extra servings onto it. Hesitantly, Yuuji coughed up some of his own before placing the plate down in front of Sukuna’s seat.
Sukuna merely sighed at your childishness and pulled out his chair to sit down in front of you. You were thankful you weren’t sitting next to him but you weren’t sure if sitting across from him was any better.
Twirling your fork in your noodles, you watched the brothers playfully interact. Yuuji shook his fork in defense at Sukuna who was attempting to steal more food. The two argued like a married couple.
You smiled softly at the sight before a soft pang hit your heart. You thought back to your own family. The home cooked meals, careless banter, attentive family members. But that was long gone. You had run from them like you always ran from everything.
Your mistakes had done enough damage for a lifetime, you couldn’t afford to be in the presence of their sympathetic eyes. 
“(y/n)?”
You glanced over to a concerned Yuuji. Well, concerned from what you could tell. Sukuna’s hand took over most of his face as he was shoved away.
You let out a puff of air at the sight, “Hm?”
“PROTECT MY LAST MEATBALL!”
Your eyes widened as Yuuji flung a stray meatball from his fork at you.
“WHAT THE HELL?!” 
You scrambled to catch the loose meat before it hit the floor, recoiling at the wet feeling of the sauce. The sudden screech of a chair indicated a pissed Sukuna bolting from his seat. 
“Put that down!”
You panicked as Sukuna stormed over to you. A quick flash of Yuuji throwing his hands over his head asking you to pass made you sigh.
Sukuna picked up his pace, “DON’T YOU DARE!”
In defiance, you chucked the meatball at Yuuji as Sukuna reached you. The sphere flew through the air before Yuuji caught it in his hand. Sukuna snarled as he lunged at Yuuji.
Laughing hysterically, Yuuji threw the meatball back at you as Sukuna wrestled him to the ground. Catching the meatball, you gaped at the pair of brothers fighting.
Yuuji flung his body around wildly trying to escape Sukuna’s relentless hold. A swift kick to Sukuna’s face made you snort.
Yuuji screamed when Sukuna regained the upper hand causing you to grab the counter trying to catch your breath. You shook uncontrollably as your laughter slowly became unstoppable.
“KAHH, (Y/N) HELP ME!!!!”
Yuuji struggled on the ground as Sukuna pinned his arms behind his back. You sucked air through your teeth at the sight, “You're on your own for this one, pal.”
Yuuji cried out as Sukuna slammed his body down one last time before he lashed at you, “Throw that shit away right now.”
You smirked at his aggravated expression before dropping the meatball to the ground, “Opps.”
The precious meatball landed on the tiled kitchen floor with a sickening plop. All at once Yuuji cried out in loss as Sukuna yelled in frustration. Letting go of his brother, Sukuna sprinted at your form.
You laughed harder and ran behind the island counter. Sukuna slammed his hands on the marbled surface as he glared at you from across, “Clean that shit up, right now.”
You flipped him off, “Kiss my ass.”
You yelped in surprise when Sukuna abruptly hurled himself over the counter and grabbed you. Pulling you over the island, he picked you up by your hips and threw you unceremoniously over his shoulder. 
You lifted yourself up on his shoulders and pounded on his back, “Put me down, asshole!”
Sukuna rolled his eyes, “Fine.”
You cried out when he ruthlessly threw you down on the couch. Your body bounced up and down from the force as you scowled up at an annoyed Sukuna. Beside you, Yuuji lay drained on the floor as he cracked up laughing at Sukuna's pissed face. 
Crossing his arms, Sukuna frowned at you both, “You’ll both be cleaning my kitchen if you ever plan to leave this place alive.”
You glanced at Yuuji who gave you a look before he mocked Sukuna, “Who died and made you king?”
The stomach-turning cracking of Sukuna’s knuckles shut Yuuji up immediately, “I mean, yes sir!”
You smiled, “I suppose I could help as well.”
Getting up from your spot, you and Yuuji quickly got to work cleaning the mess. Yuuji washed the dirty dishes while you sat on the floor scrubbing the sauce the meatball left off.
Wiping up the soapy water from the floor, your brows creased as legs came into your view. Glancing up you frowned at a smirking Sukuna.
“That’s a good look for you.”
You sat up from your crouched position and rubbed your back, “What do you mean?”
“On your knees in front of me.”
You choked on your spit, “What-”
Smooth laughter mocked you as you quickly stood to your feet. You crossed you arms and glared at him, “Your fucking disgusting.”
Sukuna leaned his back against the counter, “Damn, and I was getting used to the view.”
You threw your dirtried rag at his face. A swift hand easily caught it and threw it back. Agitated, you tossed it on the counter, “You're insufferable.”
Sukuna laughed, “You're an easy target.”
Before you could wring his throat, a cheery Yuuji let out a loud exaggerated sigh, “I can’t believe the night is almost over.”
Thank god. You were starting to realize how much you hated Sukuna again.
“Wait!” You flinched at Yuuji’s mood switch, “Let’s watch a movie!”
“Absolutely not.”
Yuuji pouted at his brother's words, “Come on! I never get to hang with (y/n)! I bet you get to all the time!”
You internally cringed. Like you’d ever willingly hang out with Sukuna alone. 
Yuuji huffed as he realized his begging was getting nowhere with Sukuna. Finding another solution Yuuji turned his attention to you.
Throwing you puppy eyes Yuuji stuck out his lower lip, “Pleaseee!”
“No-” “Alright.”
Cutting off Sukuna, you resigned yourself to Yuuji’s pouting. What can you say, you were a sucker for the golden retriever ones. At least your presence would annoy Sukuna.
Yuuji smiled, “Alright!”
You sighed, “What movie?”
Yuuji scratched his chin, “Anything with Jennifer Lawrence.”
You deadpanned at his response. Of course.
Once you finished cleaning you were quickly moved by Yuuji into the open living room. Claiming a seat on the end of Sukuna’s couch, you curled up in a ball and watched Yuuji scroll through Netflix. 
He currently sat on the floor with his back propped up against the edge of the couch. A pillow tucked comfortably behind his back. Sukuna, on the other hand, sat on the opposite end of the couch, his legs taking up the rest of the L shape.
“Just pick a damn movie already.”
Yuuji huffed, “Then you pick!”
Sukuna rested his head on his fist, “No.”
Yuuji exclaimed a loud sigh before settling on a random movie, “If this sucks, that's on you.”
Sukuna moved his foot to kick Yuuji in the back of the head, making him yelp and rub his scalp. You shook your head at their antics and tried to focus on the start of the movie. 
You blinked when a certain female character came on screen. Jennifer Lawrence. You looked at Yuuji who was staring at the screen intensely. Shoving your fist into your mouth, you tried to contain your laughter. At least he’ll be happy even if the movie blows.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Sweltering. 
You were so hot you felt like you were dying. 
Attempting to turn to your side you froze when you realized you couldn’t. Peaking your eyes open, your mouth dropped when you came face to chest with a larger body. 
It didn’t take you long to realize you were cuddled up with Sukuna on the longer portion of the couch. 
His right arm curled suggestively around your waist and rested on your hip bone. While your own arm clung possessively over his chest. 
You gawked at the situation. Internally freaking out, you tried to free yourself as quickly and as quietly as possible. You must’ve fallen asleep during the movie, but how you got in this position was beyond you.
Gently slipping out of Sukuna’s loose grip, you carefully sat up. You blinked again in confusion when a newly appeared blanket slipped off you and cascaded down onto Sukuna’s chest. That wasn’t there either last night.
You rubbed the bridge of your nose and checked the time on your phone, 3:04am. Shit it was late. You’ve definitely overstayed your welcome.
Moving to stand up, you jolted when a large hand captured your wrist and pulled you back. Its frigid temperature cooled the aching heat of your skin. 
Quickly, you snapped your head over to what you thought was a sleeping Sukuna in shock. His head laid lazily on top of his folded arm as his tired eyes took in your shape.
“Where are you going?”
You shivered at the raspiness that took hold of his voice, “Home.”
A shift from below you made you tear your gaze away from him. Looking at the floor, you eyed a sprawled out Yuuji who was snoring loudly in the center of the living room.
“Why?” Sukuna’s thumb slowly traced circles in your wrist, almost enticing you to stay.
You went to answer before strong arms captured your waist, “Just stay. It’s already late.”
You clutched the previously discarded blanket as Sukuna’s hands rubbed up and down your sides, feeling every curve you had to offer.
Slowly, a hand crept underneath your shirt caressing your bare skin. Its icy touch shot sparks through your entire body. 
“I can’t.”
You shuddered when your shirt lifted slightly as soft lips kissed your lower back. Their fullness sensually traced the dip of your spine before lifting away.
“Stay,” A rough thumb swiped tantalizingly slow underneath your waistband, ghosting over your v-line.
All you could manage was a silent nod as Sukuna’s arms pulled you back into him. His straying hands returned back to your stomach and clutched your body close. You closed your eyes and allowed him to bury himself in the crook of your neck.
His faint breath tickled your neck slightly before his lips started to trail the curve of your shoulder. You gasped lightly when he stopped near the crevasse of your neck and bit hard. He sucked and nipped at the spot making you tremble before he licked it clean.
Pushing his face further into your newly formed bruise you heard his breathing even out, signaling him falling asleep. Once soft snores entered your ear you let out a breath you didn’t know you were holding.
Allowing yourself to melt in his grasp you sighed, were you still dreaming? When you wake up will that mark still be there or was this just another one of your perverse hallucinations?
You squeezed your eyes shut. A small part of you prayed it wasn’t the last. That it was real. But you’d never admit that. 
Tonight you’d allow yourself to be wrapped up in intoxicating arms. The hatred that filled them turned still until the morning. Once you woke up you’d go back to how things were. The buffer of Yuuji no longer containing the festering anger that crawled beneath your skin. 
You’d go back to despising Sukuna.

Thanks to @merthurmagic for sending in this rec!
