Right so what if Danny became a psychologist instead of Jazz?
His friends and family died protecting him. So when he runs away and starts a new life, he adopts traits from all of them (both as a way of grieving and a way to honor them). For Tucker and Sam, Danny splits his free time between being a white hat hacker and a vocal environmental activist. For his parents, he adopts more of their eccentric personality. When he's not in a professional setting, he is loud and in your face about the latest thing he's been working on (he's also just about the most loyal person you can meet).
And for Jazz, his precious big sister, Danny decides to excel in the career path she never got the chance to enter. He resolves to fulfill her goal of helping out those society has deemed irredeemable. The ones nobody else can or wants to help. The first one he starts with, is the Joker.

how c.ai works and why it's unethical
Okay, since the AI discourse is happening again, I want to make this very clear, because a few weeks ago I had to explain to a (well meaning) person in the community how AI works. I'm going to be addressing people who are maybe younger or aren't familiar with the latest type of "AI", not people who purposely devalue the work of creatives and/or are shills.
The name "Artificial Intelligence" is a bit misleading when it comes to things like AI chatbots. When you think of AI, you think of a robot, and you might think that by making a chatbot you're simply programming a robot to talk about something you want them to talk about, and it's similar to an rp partner. But with current technology, that's not how AI works. For a breakdown on how AI is programmed, CGP grey made a great video about this several years ago (he updated the title and thumbnail recently)
youtube
I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend you watch this because CGP Grey is good at explaining, but the tl;dr for this post is this: bots are made with a metric shit-ton of data. In C.AI's case, the data is writing. Stolen writing, usually scraped fanfiction.
How do we know chatbots are stealing from fanfiction writers? It knows what omegaverse is [SOURCE] (it's a Wired article, put it in incognito mode if it won't let you read it), and when a Reddit user asked a chatbot to write a story about "Steve", it automatically wrote about characters named "Bucky" and "Tony" [SOURCE].
I also said this in the tags of a previous reblog, but when you're talking to C.AI bots, it's also taking your writing and using it in its algorithm: which seems fine until you realize 1. They're using your work uncredited 2. It's not staying private, they're using your work to make their service better, a service they're trying to make money off of.
"But Bucca," you might say. "Human writers work like that too. We read books and other fanfictions and that's how we come up with material for roleplay or fanfiction."
Well, what's the difference between plagiarism and original writing? The answer is that plagiarism is taking what someone else has made and simply editing it or mixing it up to look original. You didn't do any thinking yourself. C.AI doesn't "think" because it's not a brain, it takes all the fanfiction it was taught on, mixes it up with whatever topic you've given it, and generates a response like in old-timey mysteries where somebody cuts a bunch of letters out of magazines and pastes them together to write a letter.
(And might I remind you, people can't monetize their fanfiction the way C.AI is trying to monetize itself. Authors are very lax about fanfiction nowadays: we've come a long way since the Anne Rice days of terror. But this issue is cropping back up again with BookTok complaining that they can't pay someone else for bound copies of fanfiction. Don't do that either.)
Bottom line, here are the problems with using things like C.AI:
It is using material it doesn't have permission to use and doesn't credit anybody. Not only is it ethically wrong, but AI is already beginning to contend with copyright issues.
C.AI sucks at its job anyway. It's not good at basic story structure like building tension, and can't even remember things you've told it. I've also seen many instances of bots saying triggering or disgusting things that deeply upset the user. You don't get that with properly trigger tagged fanworks.
Your work and your time put into the app can be taken away from you at any moment and used to make money for someone else. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people who use AI panic about accidentally deleting a bot that they spent hours conversing with. Your time and effort is so much more stable and well-preserved if you wrote a fanfiction or roleplayed with someone and saved the chatlogs. The company that owns and runs C.AI can not only use whatever you've written as they see fit, they can take your shit away on a whim, either on purpose or by accident due to the nature of the Internet.
DON'T USE C.AI, OR AT THE VERY BARE MINIMUM DO NOT DO THE AI'S WORK FOR IT BY STEALING OTHER PEOPLES' WORK TO PUT INTO IT. Writing fanfiction is a communal labor of love. We share it with each other for free for the love of the original work and ideas we share. Not only can AI not replicate this, but it shouldn't.
(also, this goes without saying, but this entire post also applies to ai art)

Getting saved by 141 [Headcannon]
Price
Tumblr media
Disappointment but not surprised, how hard was it to stay put and don’t get kidnapped?
Made an entire rescue mission just to get you back.
Was the first face you saw when he came to your aid.
“I’ve got you Son.” Reassured you that you were alright and in safe hands.
“I’m sorry Sir, I told them about the team’s whereabouts…” could care less that you gave them information, more about the fact you were tortured for it.
Shines a flashlight in your eyes and tells you to follow it just to make sure you’re still functioning.
Is angry but not at you, likely at himself for allowing one of his own to be taken.
Will offer to carry you on his back if you can’t walk.
Patches up your wounds by himself, warns you in advance when disinfecting the wounds, “This is going to hurt like a bitch so suck it up.”
10/10, give this man father of the year. Don’t expect candy from this man, he will offer you a cigar though.
You’re on probation. Don’t even try change Price’s mind. He’ll just give you a pat on the back and apologise, “It’s for your own good, Kid.”
Checks up on your mental state daily and recommends you a military councillor.
Ghost
Tumblr media
Knight in military uniform.
Sneaks into the warehouse you’re being held captive in.
Stealthy asf, no one ever sees this man coming and if they do then it’s already too late.
Jumpscare.
If he isn’t opening fire then he’s probably throwing knives into necks.
Throws you over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes if you’re injured, doesn’t matter what injury, he’s just not patient.
Stabs adrenaline into you to keep you alive.
“You breathing, Soldier?” Gently slaps your face to keep you awake.
Will undress you from your uniform without second thought to patch up a wound so you don’t bleed out.
Sits next to you on the plane ride back to monitor your state. If you were unconscious when he found you then he’d allow you to lay on his shoulder but if you’re conscious he’ll make sure you stay that away until you’ve received medical attention.
If you’re the former then he’s probably not the best face to wake up to.
“Holy shit, am I dead?” “You nearly were.” “Because I’m seeing a Ghost.” “I still don’t find you funny.”
He definitely killed everyone in that warehouse for harming one of his own but will never admit that to you and simply just tells you, “Everything is taken care of, Kid. Go rest up.”
Puts you on probation and during that probation he’ll teach you some moves so that he doesn’t have to save you again.
Soap
Tumblr media
*Panicked Scottish noises*
Radios you over and over to try get your location, when he finds out you’ve been taken he goes into Captain Mactavish mode.
Doesn’t really make a plan, runs straight into danger. Definitely blows something up just to live up to the demolition expert title.
Would quite literally NOT tackle someone out of a window onto a car but simply will throw them out of one. That Captain Mactavish mode has its limits.
Rushes to your side and cuts off your restraints. Cups your face with his gloved hand and tilts your head back and forth to check for any head injuries. You could be staring him dead in his eyes and he’d still check your pulse.
Will fireman carry you if you can’t walk or you’re unconscious.
Clicks his fingers in your face and then asks you how many fingers he’s holding up. You look at him dumbfounded, “5…?” “Fuckin hell you need medical treatment…”
If you’re falling off to sleep then he’ll keep you awake by teaching you some Scottish slang. “So you’re telling me that Elizabeth or Lizzie is slang for…coffin dodger?” “Or old cunt.” “I will be sure to use that more often now.” “Aye but do be careful of who you’re saying it around. You know how Brits get.” “……”
Gets Price to put you on probation even if the injuries aren’t serious. He’s just not taking any chances.
Gaz
Tumblr media
“You broken?”
Panic mechanic Gaz.
Acts on his knee jerker responses to which needs Price to hold him back and keep him in check.
Threw tear gas through the vents and came through the roof opening fire. Couple of knives went through eyes, one of them nearly hit you. So much for a rescue mission.
Gaz would probably stare at you if you’re unconscious to see if you’re breathing or not. Gets up real close to your face, “Okay good, you’re still alive.” He was just afraid to be the one to collect your dog tag so he didn’t want to check your pulse.
Doesn’t have enough muscle mass to pick you up so would either drag you out of danger or let you lean on his shoulder.
Gaz is definitely the type to over bandage you, “Can never be to safe than sorry.” You looked mummified after he’s done with you.
Will let you sleep on his lap if he found you unconscious, after every 5 minutes he put a finger below your nose to check if you’re still breathing.
If he found you awake he tries his best to keep you awake, “Hey buddy, keep your eyes open or else you’re going to die.”
Doesn’t sugarcoat, tells you exactly what injuries you have, “I think your knee is dislocated, do you want me to relocate it now?” “Sergeant, please don’t.” Will relocate it anyway.
Tells you about his life story and how he got recruited into 141, “I was born at a very young age.” He really tries to lighten the mood.
Threatens to shatter your kneecaps if you don’t take at least 5 weeks off.

summary: request
evan buckley x reader
a/n: you guys always have such good ideas istg… so funny story i was gonna finish this last night but i was drunk so i couldn’t 😁
every time her eyes were forced open, y/n was faced with a new horror in front of her. the murky grey water full of debris scratching against her skin. the stinging salt water in her eyes and lips. the salt from the sea diving into her scrapes. the feeling that she was drowning and there was nothing she could do to stop it. the ocean has always been scary, but it’s never scarier than when you’re in the center of its wrath. she came up for air, only to take one deep breath before being forced under the surface again. she’s a good swimmer. she knows she can swim, but no one prepares you for a wave from hell in swimming lessons.
y/n and buck had taken christopher out for the day, trying to get buck more involved after his accident. they went to the pier, the arcades, anything that christopher suggested they did.
they were supposed to go to the movies. to see a film, but the only thing they saw now was pure calamity in front of them.
she didn’t think buck could take much more pain and uncertainty in this world. he’s the toughest man, but even the toughest soldiers can fall. y/n’s concern for him had peaked. his life felt empty when he didn’t have y/n or the 118. he loved working more than anything, saving people ended up saving him.
he knew y/n before she even started working at the 118. they had been in the same training program, and y/n was eventually transferred to los angeles. buck was so fond of y/n. he loved her more than anyone, which frightened him but also made him filled with electricity. she was alluring, talented, and the sweetest person he’s ever known. she showed him love when he needed it.
so, the ring was in his apartment, shining in one of the hidden compartments in his closet. he was certainly prepared to whip it out and spend the rest of his days next to y/n, but then, a kid with some bombs took over. the engine was on top of buck before he could take a breath, and all his plans to propose were thrown away. it was now or never, he thought, laying on the stretcher. he’d switched from gut-wrenching wails to a solid “marry me.”
now, y/n looked for buck wherever, but the shore had become one with the whole city. the pier was gone, and she didn’t know if buck and chris were too.
she was being shoved across the water, her body being smacked with incoming debris. her head made contact with a slab of concrete that the wave had taken up. after, she’d made contact with another piece that sliced through the side of her abdomen, leaving a clean gash that was releasing a spill of blood. before she knew it, the the water was cold, but she started to feel warmer by the minute. the water around her started turning red, and her face became paler as she accepted her fate. she wanted buck to be there to save her. she wanted to be able to save herself, but the aggression of the water made it near impossible. she allowed her frail body to wash up on top of a white delivery truck, laying there with her maroon blood smeared on the top of the truck.
she was transformed into survival mode, thinking of anything she would be able to do without killing herself even more. she was able to reach for a piece of sopping fabric, pressing it securely against her belly where the massive slash was. there was nothing to be done for her head as the damage had already been done. she’d be damned if this tsunami killed her, but as long as she knew buck was out there, she was going to fight like hell.
buck felt completely lost. he was settled on top of a fire engine, christopher being cradled in his arms as they faced the disaster together. they were the only two people on bucks mind, y/n and christopher. at least he knew where christopher was, but he was separated from his fiancé the moment the wave flooded the pier.
buck tried to stay positive, he really did. but, seeing all the bodies float past limply brought his spirits down. he knew that he would be okay, but the woman who’s the center of his universe could be dead. buck thought nothing could hurt more than his accident. on the contrary, the thoughts in his head during these moments of his life hurt more than any physical pain he’s experienced.
buck stayed silent, not wanting to scare christopher but the boy had his own questions. “how come y/n is gone?”
“she, um, she got lost in one of the waves, pal,” buck mumbles, trying to contain himself from completely breaking down. “we’ll find her when this is over, alright?” buck wishes he had a more firm answer, but there is nothing in this environment that is stable. no one knows a single thing that could or couldn’t happen.
suddenly, everything turned to nightmare fuel. christopher had fallen, and was swept away by the harsh flow. buck screamed his name, jumping in after him and searching for him anywhere. he swore his heart stopped, watching the exhausted boy fall into the unknown pit of water. everything had become a blur to buck. he didn’t even care about anyone else as long as christopher went home to eddie, and y/n went home with him.
bucks heart fell with eddie’s face as their reunited with each other at the hospital. he was carrying the weight of two missing people, feeling like it was only his fault. he wanted y/n there so bad, he so badly wanted her to hold him and say it’ll all work out in the end. y/n was gone, and buck had no fucking clue because now, she could be anywhere. he loves her more than anything on this planet, and a wave can’t change that.
buck continued to notice the shallow breathing of eddie, the pure horror on his face as he might’ve lost the person he adores most. there’s no pain like losing a child, and buck could never live with himself if he didn’t save christopher. alas, when eddie’s eyes directed to behind bucks cut and dirty body, he saw his son wrapped up in a warming blanket. buck felt like complete shit.
he knew he saved christopher, and he was thrilled beyond words. but where was y/n? he had to know. the sun had already set and if she wasn’t found, she was probably dead. the word rang through bucks brain, repeating itself over and over like a monster under the bed. she’s the best thing that ever happened to him, and he never guessed that it would shoot him in the foot until now.
“buck!” bobby yelled, beginning to walk over with hen and chimney as eddie sprinted to his little boy. “hey, what’s wrong, kid?”
buck could barely formulate words, the heaving in his chest was too strong to hold anything else. he panted while spitting out y/n’s name. “i cant find her, guys i tried so hard but we just got separated so fast-“
“alright, buck hang in there,” hen says, placing her hand on his shoulder in an attempt to ease him. “we’re going to look around, ok?” buck nods, knowing that this isn’t easy for them either. y/n was the light at the station, being able to cure a bad day and always making every glad to be at work. she made it the best experience, and she became their best friend outside of work too. they’d lose a coworker, but they’d lose a member of their family above all else.
buck storms around the parking lot in the triage areas, desperately begging them for her name. “do you have a y/n here? y/l/n? ive been to all of the other ones and if she’s not here i don’t know what to do.”
“she’s not on my list, sir. i’m so sorry, but have you checked the black tents?” the sad woman asks, acknowledging the tarp that was decked with body bags. buck stared at them, like they became the only thing in the world.
“i- i cant-“ buck breathes, turning around to break the contact.
“i know, you’re ok, buck,” hen speaks, as buck falls into her arms, his knees barely holding any support of his body. he tries to match henrietta’s breathing, her comforting voice soothing his ears. he tried to ignore everything around him, but the aggressive sirens of another ambulance and the lights illuminated the teams faces.
he watched as the two paramedics opened the doors, revealing another on next to a womans body, squeezing the air into her lungs with the bag. buck knows. he sees her damp hair on the stretcher, the hair loves and admired every day. he sees her crimson-stained outfit, the one he complimented her on this morning. lastly, he sees her beautiful face, the face he could never forget. he wants to sprint over to her, but his feet are planted on the ground. he has no more fight left to give, and he lets himself fall to the ground in exhaustion.
the next time his eyes peel open again, buck is sitting behind a curtain, an oxygen mask around his head and a bottle of water being handed to him. “drink this,” bobby demands.
“thanks,” buck replies.
“don’t thank me. you did great work out there today, buck. i’m proud of you.”
“thank you, cap,” buck twists the cap off, starting to take sips of the water. “please tell me i wasn’t dreaming when i saw y/n.”
“you weren’t. she’s in surgery now. she had a pretty nasty laceration on her head, and an even worse one on her abdomen. they’re thinking it hit her appendix, so they’re going in to take it out before it causes more harm than good. they did a few test on her as well,” buck hisses at bobby’s words, not wanting to hear anymore but needing to know. he didn’t know if it was good or bad, but he had to know. “she has a severe concussion. she’ll probably be disoriented and confused when she wakes up, and surely in pain. buck, hey,” bobby notices the man starting to zone out. she’s still hurt, and it’s not enough for buck. he wishes he could put a force field around her, wanting to take the force of anything that might hurt her. knowing that this out of the ordinary thing almost took her life pains him beyond injury.
“s-sorry,” buck whispers. “i want to see her when she’s out of surgery.”
“you can, but i need you to know that it’s going to look bad. she’s going to be intubated and definitely banged up. you have to know that she’s going to be ok. so, say it,” bobby tells him.
“what?”
“say she’s going to be ok.”
buck gives him a confused look, trying to contain the waves of his own tears as he utters the words out. “she’s going to be ok,” before he knows it, the dam breaks and bobby’s hugging buck, comforting him from the emotions that have taken over.
the minute buck gets the confirmation to see his girl, he’s passionately walking down the hallway of the ICU, scanning the rooms for the only one he cares about. scarily, bobby was right. it looked bad. she had cuts through her cheeks and her shoulders, even passing through her eyebrows and forehead. she had a thick bandage around her abdomen, protecting the incisions on her stomach. the lights were dimmed, protecting her eyes from hurting her head even more. the tube down her throat was a haunting sight for buck to see, realizing that she could barely do it on her own.
he sat in the chair next to her, anxious to even graze her hand. he just watched her chest rise slowly and sink down again, next to the hissing of the machine. and he stayed there. he couldn’t bring himself to leave her side again. he lost her once, it wasn’t happening again. so, buck sat next to her until her anesthesia wore off. some people might’ve thought he was a statue, the way he didn’t rip his eyes off of her.
the doctors came in a while later when y/n started breathing over her tube. she was still sleeping, but she was breathing on her own. buck knew she could, he knew this wouldn’t be the thing to take them apart. the worlds had it’s go at trying to separate buck and y/n, but it never works. until death do them part, literally. buck looked at the ring on her finger, almost forgetting that they’re planning a wedding. he’d been given the ring from the nurse, who took it off before her scans. he was the first one to put it on her finger, so he did it again.
the 118 had piled into her room, eddie bringing christopher to his tías house to spend time with her. he came back when he heard about y/n. buck just saved the life of his son, and y/n saved bucks life before he even knew it. the entire team knew it. they needed her to be ok, or work would truly never be the same.
she’d worn off the anesthesia a few hours later, looking at her family surrounding her.
“hey, baby,” buck smiles, still dressed in his muddy clothes. “i know it hurts, it’s ok.”
“what happened?” she asks, rasp in her voice.
“there was a tsunami, y/n. it got you pretty good, too,” bobby added, standing at the edge of her bed. “you fought that pretty good, y/n. they said it was pretty ugly when they found you.”
“yeah, i remember,” she squints. “but why am i here? shouldn’t i be at work soon?” buck gives his captain a confused look.
“she’s just confused, buck. it’s the concussion, don’t worry about that,” eddie whispers behind buck into his ear.
“do you remember seeing anyone or anything?” hen asks.
“i remember being scared, for buck and c-christopher. i thought they were dead for a little, and i thought i was next. but i couldnt just drop there and give up on them.”
buck noticed her exhaustion, from the pain medicine and just the stress of her disorientation. “you should get more sleep, honey. you’re gonna need it.”
“bucks right. we can come back to see you tomorrow, y/n,” hen stands. “we love you, y/n. you did good.”
“you’re tough, y/n, you’ll be alright,” chimney adds, patting her hand and starts to clear out of the room.
“don’t go, buck,” y/n says, grabbing his hand with her eyes shut tightly.
“i’m not going anywhere, y/n/n. you’re stuck with me,” buck tells her, leaving a kiss on her hand and he sees the corner of her lips rise with it.

OUTLAW (11)
ATEEZ ot8 x Reader
Series Masterlist
Warnings: Assault, Sexual Assault, blood (This chapter is a bit heavier than the past ones. It's probably going to be the only that has graphic scenes such as this one.)
Tumblr media
It was that time again in the night when everyone was going home to rest. Yeosang had walked up behind you at the front desk, placing his hand on your waist. You took a glance at his arm, feeling heat seep into your skin from over your dress. Ever since the day you spent with them
“I'll see you two in the morning.” Yeosang told both you and Seonghwa. The older man had the night shift that day so he would be staying. “Goodnight, Honey.” His thumb rubbed against your clothing, a small smile playing on the man’s face. 
“Goodnight, Yeosang.” You told him. “Be careful.”
You were left to count some of the money while Seonghwa read over the guest lists and wrote down who paid their room days. After you finished with what you needed to, you moved around the counter to get on with the last of your things. 
“I'm on trash duty.” You hummed. Seonghwa continued on with his tasks, rubbing a hand on your hip as you both passed each other. With a sigh, you picked up the large bags and begun your trek out to the trash cans. 
While most would have their own trash cans, as a business you had to share with others. And yours was stationed on the other side of the hotel between another building. It took a good 5 minutes in total to reach the alleyway and head back inside. 
Just as you closed the lid to the large trash bin, you heard squeaks and a panicked voice. Walking out of the alley, you glanced around to see if anyone else had noticed. The sun had begun to set earlier than usual so most people were already hiding inside their homes. The crying began to get louder which prompted you to investigate. Walking across the street, you found yourself in the alley across from the hotel. 
Your eyes went wide and air was sucked out of your lungs when you saw three men roughly grabbing a woman. You didn’t stop to think about what to do, you did the first thing that came to mind. That was to shout.
“Hey!” You screamed. “Let go of her!” 
You rushed into the scene, blinded by rage to realize you had quickly formed your hand into a fist and slammed it into one of the men’s cheek. Your rings had helped to aid you in your bout seeing as they caused scratches along the man’s face. Blood began to pool on his skin as he sucked on his teeth. 
The men had paused in their actions of gripping the woman, turning to you. The one you had injured moved a finger to touch his wound, scoffing at the pool that stained his fingers. The other two men had dropped the woman they were holding onto which moved you into action to hold onto her. 
“Run.” You told her, getting your brain to move into flight mode after the adrenaline wore off. You pushed her in front of you, feet scoffing the floor. Just as she took off, someone gripped onto your hair causing you to let out a yelp. “Get away!” You shouted when you saw the girl turn around to look at you. 
You immediately fell to the ground in protest, becoming dead weight for them. You clawed at the hand that was twisting your hair, kicking your legs. “Grab her.” Your eyes shut tight at his words, kicking you feet more as the other two men moved to get your legs. 
You screamed and raised your legs, hitting one man in the nose with the heel of your boot. You hooked your ankle around one of the man’s pulling it towards you to trip him up. They growled at you in frustration, getting angry before pinning you to the floor instead of picking you up. 
“Shit. You just lost us our good time.” The one you punched sneered, coming around to kneel over you. “Now you gotta pay us back.”
Your eyes opened wide when the man pulled out a pocket knife, pressing it into your cheek. You began to breathe hard, panic seizing in your chest. A whimper fell from your lips as the man moved the knife down.  
“Seong-Seonghwa!” You cried meekly, hoping that maybe the man had walked out to find you. You were a good way from the front of the hotel and the way you called out wasn’t loud enough for anyone to hear. 
You could remember the entire of your life in that moment. Tears welled in your eyes as the regrets of things you did and didn’t do came to mind. You had thought you were happy before but looking back on it there was so much you were missing out on. You didn’t get the chance to see more than just Cromer. You didn’t get to learn more lessons that would help you to grow as a person. You didn’t want to give up on those things just yet though. 
“No one's here to save you. Should've minded your business.” The man on top of you laughed. You scrunched up your nose, spitting in the man’s face as the thought of your life ending made you angry. 
“You feisty bitch.” A scream bubbled from your throat as the man nicked at the skin under your jaw. “Not so tough now are you. Look at her, there are tears in her eyes.” He laughed. 
Just as the man’s hands began to touch your leg a gunshot rang out through the area causing you to scream when the man holding your right arm fell over and blood splattered on your face. You squeezed your eyes shut, flinching when another shot rang out and more liquid touched you. You felt the weight of the man on top of you lift off. You didn’t dare to move curling up into a fetal position as your body began to tremble. 
“If you know what's good for you, you'll drop the knife.” Someone rasped out from the entrance of the alley.
Your heart clenched seeing the leather coat that was billowing out with the wind. The hat that covered his pink hair made him look more menacing as the metal on his boots clicked with each step. 
“It's you.” The thug said, sounding scared for his life. “Listen, we can talk this out. No need to get hostile.” He tried to reason. 
“I already killed two of you. What's one more?” You opened your eyes, moving slowly to turn and look at who had come to save you. 
“If you want the girl, you can have-” Mingi didn’t let him finish as he pulled the trigger. You scooted back as the man’s body fell to the side, gasping as your fingers touched the blood that was pooling around you. 
“She's not yours to trade.” Mingi sneered down at the dead man. 
“Mingi.” You whispered, looking up at the man. 
“Doll.” His face softened when he took in your state, quickly leaning down to carefully touch you. 
“Mingi.” You cried, quickly getting to your knees and throwing yourself onto him. 
He used a hand to stabilize himself as you buried your head into his chest, trying to get swallowed up to get rid of the anxiousness. He could both hear and feel your sobs that wracked through your body. Your skin felt cold to the touch as blood tried returning to the normal temperature. 
You suddenly began to shake more, hyperventilating. Mingi wrapped his arms around you tighter, keeping you from moving too much. “Hey, hey.” He soothed, lips ghosting over your ear.  “You're okay. I got you.”
He started to rock you back and forth, pulling you into his lap. There was a scraping sound coming from the alleyway entrance as someone rushed over, coming to a quick stop. “Mingi!” Seonghwa called, rushing towards the two of you. 
He paused as he came up to the dead bodies, sucking in a breath as he noticed the state you were in. As he tried to get past his anger, he tried to pull Mingi up to a stand. You clutched tighter to the man’s clothing, so he picked you up in his arms. 
“Take her to the hotel. Now.” Seonghwa spoke in a rush, hastily pushing you two out the alley. The man took a moment to look around the street before making a run for the hotel lobby. Checking once more to make sure no one was waiting there, he pushed Mingi towards the back room meant for the night shift worker.  
“Put her in bed.” He explained to the outlaw. “I'll go get Yunho and Jongho.”
As Mingi moved to set you down, you only wrapped your arms around his neck, holding him tighter to you. The man sighed with worry, moving around to sit on the bed with you in his lap again. He could feel the blood that was on your finger stick to his skin but he was worried about that when he saw the wound on your neck. 
Anger coursed through his chest as he dropped his head back to calm his racing heart. He moved his thumb up to brush against it, your blood being wiped away. “Doll, I have to treat your wound.” He whispered to you. 
“I can't-can't move.” Your body shook with each word you let out. It was when you stopped speaking that you seemed to tighten up your body to become stiff. Mingi tried to move you around so he could get back up but you only made your body stiff, tightening your fingers around him. 
“Don't leave!” You cried.
“I'm not.” Mingi sighed deeply, lightly brushing his lips against your cheek to calm you down. 
“Is she hurt?” Jongho burst through the door, closely followed by Yunho and Seonghwa. 
“She has a cut on her neck.” Mingi explained. “She won't let me treat it.”
“I'll do it.” Seonghwa moved around the room, going to the medicine cabinet to get what he needed. Jongho had kneeled in front of Mingi, hand brushing over your hair to sooth you some. He cooed at you, lulling you into a numb sleeping state. Yunho walked closer, taking up the space next to his partner. 
“Go check out the bodies before someone else notices.” Soenghwa told the two officers. Jongho looked at his friends reluctantly, but Yunho softly calling out to him had him moving out the room. Seonghwa had bent down to look over your wound.   
“Pretty girl.” He spoke softly. “I need you to move your head.” He rubbed his fingers along your scalp, messaging your head. You were trying to not fall asleep, but the boys made that hard with their way their affection was causing a buzz in your body. Your mind was already in a fragile state so the way they were treating you made you regress back into a space you had no idea you could enter.
You pulled your head to the side, craning your neck to allow Seonghwa room to work. “That's a good girl.” He tried to move quickly around you, softly speaking when you would flinch from the stinging of the wound. When he finished, he stood up, throwing the trash away. 
“Pretty, you have to let Mingi go.” He told you so that you could go to bed already. Mingi looked up at Seonghwa when he felt your fingers clench the collar of his coat again. The older man sighed as he took in your state.
“Stay here for the night.” He told his friend. ”I'll call her family to tell them something came up and she took my night shift.”
You heard his footsteps walking out of the room, your eyes already shut as your body came to a numbing feeling. Your body felt heavy against Mingi, as if the world was pulling you deeper into the ground. The man gripped onto your waist, pulling you with him as he tried to get up from the bed. You tightened up on him again, shaking your head as tears pooled in your eyes once more.
“Hey-Hey.” Mingi soothed, laying down on the bed. “I'm not leaving.” He made himself comfortable, turning to his side with you. You shuffled closer to him, tucking your head under his chin as you pulled the long coat of his around your body. He felt the hiccups of your anxiety attack, his hands pulling you closer. 
“I'm still here.” He whispered, kissing your head.

Your toddler sized Manager was a masterpiece 👌
But what about the blue lock boys turning into toddlers or one of them and The manager has to take care of him/them. The others would be so jealous in the second scenario!!!
Thx for reading.
Have a good day😘
Author: I saw smn request a similar thing so I hope the person who requested it will like this one! Thank u for the request and I hope u enjoy the story too🩷
Warnings ⚠️: Reader uses she/her. Requests are open.
⚽️Blue Lock belongs to:Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura⚽️
"Ahhhh!" (Y/n) yelled as as Bachira and Kunigami tried to shut her up.
It was around 8.15 in the morning and (Y/n) was told to wake up the guys, since they weren't responding to Ego's or Anri's calls. The girl didn't think much of it, thinking the boys might be tired and just overslept or went to sleep right after the first call. But as she approached the room, she wasn't so sure about her assumptions, since their room was getting louder and louder. The girl sighed, mentally preparing herself as she grabbed the handle.
'What happened now? Did someone steal Aryu's haircomb...did Bachira kick someone while waking up?'
The girl opened the door, revealing the whole team shouting at each other.
"(Y/n)?! Please go out!" Aryu yelled nervously, causing the arguing to stop and they all looked nervously at her.
"What is this mess? Ego-san will be mad that you aren't out of your room. What are you all even yelling about?"
There was a short silence as (Y/n) raised her eyebrow at Gagamaru, who was shielded by Baro oddly enough.
"Did you guys break something? Also-" The girl furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at everyone who was present in the room.
"Where is Niko? Did he already leave for breakfast?"
"That's kind of the thing..." Karasu laughed nervously.
"Niko is... he isn't himself right now." Reo said as he looked at Rin for some support.
"Yeah, he is... not quite there yet." The captain said.
"What?! Is he sick?! What even happened?" (Y/n) went into a panic mode, thinking he might be injured or something.
"Calm down, it's nothing serious... I think. It's just that he is a little off." Isagi explained.
"Then where is he? He might need medical attention or something." (Y/n) pressed on further as Chigiri butted in.
"It's nothing to worry about, just go and have breakfast. We will be there soon."
"You must be insane..." (Y/n) muttered. Kunigami sighed and got up from his bed.
"He isn't sick, he just changed a little. We will show you, but please don't panic." Kunigami said, ignoring Hiori's protests to the idea.
"Think of it as our secret!" Bachira said, now standing next to (Y/n).
"Ok?" She raised her eyebrow. Baro moved away reluctantly, revealing what Gagamaru was holding... or more like who! (Y/n)'s eyes widened and her jaw dropped at the sight of Niko. A small, toddler sized Niko was held by the goalkeeper. (Y/n) kept quiet as Gagamaru moved the boy closer, giving her a better look at him. Niko was a lot smaller now, looking at (Y/n) with big, blue eyes as his bangs were held back by a hair tie. The boy had a small blush on his face as the girl kept on staring at him, letting out incoherent words from time to time.
"Ahhhh!" (Y/n) yelled out as Bachira kept on shushing her and Kunigami closing the door.
"What happened?! Niko?!" The girl yelled as the boy said some more things.
"We found him like this... I don't know if he drank something off or what." Yukimiya explained as the others started adding in. (Y/n) zoned them out and kept on looking at Niko, who was staring at the girl in wonder.
'Those cheeks... and the eyes... He looks so adorable!' (Y/n) ran over to Gagamaru and took Niko out of his arms.
"(Y/n)? Is she crying?" Kurona panicked, noticing the tears in her eyes. Niko in that moment tilted his head, which sealed the deal for her.
"OH MY GOD! HE IS SO ADORABLE!" (Y/n) yelled, hugging to boy.
"What is this yelling about?!" Ego's voice was heard as his face appeared on the monitor.
"Oh great..." Aryu groaned.
Now, Nagi was never a huge fan of little kids, they cry, throw up, shit and half the time don't even know what is going on. But today, today he was pretty sure was his breaking point. After Ego heard what had happened, he assigned (Y/n) to take care of Niko while he would find a substitute for her as a manager. Now he had to suffer with (Y/n) dotting on Niko, who by the looks of it was having the time of his life.
'Lucky brat, gets to be fed, held and carried by (Y/n). What's next, sleep with her in the same bed?' Nagi shuddered at the thought, taking a bite from his food.
"Here comes the plane~" (Y/n) sang out as she fed Niko. Reo, annoyed at the grin the toddler had, spoke up.
"Hey, let me hold him for you. I am sure you are having a hard time feeding and holding him." Reo suggested, giving Niko a tight smile. The said boy shook his head and hugged (Y/n) tightly.
"It's fine, Reo. I don't really mind." (Y/n) said simply and continued feeding Niko.
"If you want, I can take care of Niko for the day. You can do your duties then." Hiori, who was sitting next to a sulking Nagi, offered. The blue-haired boy tried to hold back his frown at the scene. Niko shook his head at the idea.
"No worries, Hiori. I am glad you offered, but I can manage. You guys focus on football." (Y/n) answered as she wiped some of the food off of his face.
'That brat!' The trio thought.
"Peekaboo!" (Y/n) yelled, uncovering her face as Niko laughed and clapped his tiny hands.
'So adorable!' The girl smiled and wiped her tears away. She continued playing with the boy, not noticing Karasu, Bachira, Otoya and Chigiri glaring at the toddler.
"This is rediculous. Couldn't Teieri-san take care of him? (Y/n) has better things to do than taking care of Niko." Karasu groaned, flinching as he heard (Y/n) laugh again.
'I want to make her laugh too.'
"Yeah, the better things would be her admiring my great skills. How is Niko laughing at random shit better than me?" Otoya said as jealousy started killing him on the inside. Yesterday he came up with a trick he wanted to show (Y/n) today, but now he had to fight a toddler sized Niko for her attention.
"I wonder what it's like to be Niko right now." Bachira sighed.
"Being held, fed, washed and dotted by (Y/n)... must be a great life. I wish I had this experience." Bachira sighed. He was jealous, but more disappointed that it didn't happen to him. Chigiri sent the two a short glance and nodded his head.
"Lucky bastard, I wish that was me. Niko probably saved a whole country in his past life for this privilege." Chigiri stopped talking as the four saw Niko get a kiss on his forehead.
'Why not me?!' They thought.
Now Isagi, Rin, Aryu and Kurona decided to approach everything from a different angle. While they were jealous at the extra attention Niko was getting, they saw it as a great opportunity to show off how reliable they were.
Isagi would offer watching over Niko when (Y/n) needed a toilet break. Something that caused the toddler to huff about, not paying attention to whatever Isagi was saying.
'That little brat is lucky I want to be on (Y/n)'s good side.' Isagi thought with a tight smile.
Rin would offer himself to hold Niko while (Y/n) ate her lunch or dinner, but that ended up with Niko crying in Rin's hold, scared of the glare the captain had on his face. The glare ended up being just Rin's usual expression and (Y/n) decided to just take Niko and eat.
"Thanks for the help, Rin. But I think I can handle it." She said and the boy nodded his head slowly.
"S-sure."
'And mom for real expects me to have kids?' He thought as he watched (Y/n) play with Niko's hair.
Aryu would be there to fix Niko's hair or clothes if it got messy during playtime. (Y/n) was at first grateful for the help, but quickly regretted agreeing when she saw Niko struggle in Aryu's hold. The boy groaned as Niko escaped his hold and ran to (Y/n).
"Thank you for the help... but it seems like Niko doesn't like this arrangement." (Y/n) chuckled nervously as she started fixing up his hair.
"I am sorry... seems like kids don't like me." Aryu chuckled, holding back a groan.
Kurona had the easiest time with Niko, as the boy was a little bit afraid of his shark-like teeth. Kurona would chime in from time to time, offering to give Niko his bottle or carry him around when (Y/n) was tired. It worked... for like an hour and then Niko would just distance himself slowly from Kurona.
'His luck that (Y/n) is here...' The boy thought, glaring at Niko as he gave him his bottle.
Kunigami, Baro, Gagamaru and Yukimiya had the easiest time of holding back their jealousy... I'd say that if I wanted to lie! Kunigami was sulking as (Y/n) kept on taking pictures of Niko, crying how cute he was.
'I am cute too...' Kunigami thought to himself as he sent a glare Niko's way.
Baro would rise his voice from time to time if Niko tried to fall asleep in her arms.
'You won't be cozying up around me.' Baro smirked as he felt Niko glare at him.
Gagamaru would try to be a baby too, which worked on (Y/n) for the most part. Asking her for headpats, asking for her opinions on his saves or new tricks, asking to eat with her and so on. All in all, Gagamaru's jealousy got him the furthest in getting (Y/n)'s attention, although Niko's whining would piss hin off sometimes.
Yukimiya meanwhile straight up glared at Niko, not caring if (Y/n) was in the room or not. The girl would scold him every 20 minutes for scaring the boy, but it's like it flew into one ear and out of the other.
All in all, the day was a success for (Y/n) as she did get a lot of Niko baby pictures. The boys were praying for Niko to be normal by tomorrow. And the boy himself just loved the undivided attention he got that day.

Worried critters
(Sorry for the long wait and ant could color the background but eh your here for the story anywaysXD)
Tumblr media
When morning came, in the critter’s home, where loud snores could be heard. Bobby woke up, already full of energy. She jumped softly out of her bed, as she stretched her body. She looked out the window, seeing the sun not yet out .she looked at her messy roommates still asleep. ‘Well then, time to go to work!’ She thought, as she walked out of the room, and into the kitchen,on her way to the kitchen, she saw a sleeping catnap on the couch. Seeing as he didn’t had a blanket, she went back to their bedroom and took one, slowly putting it on him and continued to go towards the kitchen.
As she looked inside the fridge and cabinets, she decided today would be some old fashion pancakes with eggs and bacons. As she took a bowl and a whisk, she begun to put the flour, butter, milk and eggs, a tablespoon of sugar, some baking powder, and a pinch of salt. As she whisked it all together, humming a tune. She begun to ready the pan and heat it up.
Getting the butter and putting it on the heated pan, as she puts batter in, setting the timer, she peaked her head outside the kitchen to see catnap still asleep.Guess all the ruckus bobby’s been making didn’t wake him. she heard her timer pinging, so She went back and flipped the pancake, seeing the pancake a golden brown shade she smiled at her work, she continued this for an hour, before she heard the door to their room opening. “Bobby? You’re up early today.” Said a yawning bubba who looked in the kitchen, seeing the large stack of pancakes. “….what the occasion today? You seem to have made more than you usually do…” bubba asked.
seeing his friend happy isn’t rare or something, but today bobby seems to be more happy than usual. “Oh, good morning bubba! How was your day yesterday?” Bobby smiled, as she asked bubba. “....Stressful, some of the colleges applications the kids wanted to go to has essays. And I also need to interview them a bit. How was your day yesterday? When we came home, you weren’t here. Dogday went to panic mode you know.” He said beside bobby as he smiled at his last sentence. “Oh, i just had a little chat with our savior…. ….Maybe not so little.. hehe.” She answered, scratching her cheek while she flipped the pancake.
Bubba then helped take the pancakes to the table when bobby finally finished the last batch. “Well, next time try to leave a note at the table so we would know. “ he said as he smiled sleepily at bobby.” I’ll wake the others up, try to wake catnap if ya can” bubba said as he went to their bedroom.
As bobby walk towards the couch and stood in front of it, who has the still sleeping catnap with eyes bags under his eyes. She crouched down and tapped his face repeatedly “ cattttttttnnnaaaaapppp, wake up sleepy headdddd” she dragged as she continued to tap his face. He grumbled as he tried to grab bobby’s hand.” Quit it…..” he quietly mumbled as he tried to go back to sleep. “ oh no you don’t! It’s morning and i made breakfast! Wake up sleepy head!" Bobby shouted in front of catnap, as she tried to force him out of bed, Which resulted with him face planted to the floor. "Bobby!" A voice from the door loudly shouted, when bobby faced them she was forced to the ground as dogday hugged her. "When i came home, you weren't here!? Which was not so you... since you're always here when we come home..... WHERE WERE YOU YESTERDAY!??!" He nuzzled bobby's neck as he whined. As bobby calmed down from the sudden hug, she wrapped her roommate in a hug.
that was until she could feel a glare from somewhere. When she looked back to catnap, she could see him still face planted to the floor, but now glaring at the two hugging each other. It was silent, except for dogday's morning affection, oblivious to the glaring cat.
Then bobby suddenly thought of something. As she nuzzled dogday too, catnap suddenly stood up going to ponce, until bobby turned dogday and softy pushed him towards catnap, who suddenly melted in dogday's hands. "Ah! Good morning catnap!" Dogday greeted loudly as his tail wagged, hugging catnap to his chest. Bobby smiled while chuckling at the jelly kitten. "Well then! Since the cat is now fully awake, we can finally start breakfast!" Bobby clapped her hands together, as the door to their room opened again." Well it seems you woke the cat up, morning dogday." Bubba said as he opened the door for the others. "Morning!" Picky suddenly said as she peaked her head out the door. When she suddenly saw the pile of pancakes she dashed to the table, already waiting for the others to sit down. "Come onnnnn im starving!!" She loudly said as the others groggily walk toward the table with them saying "morning or good morning" when everyone is now settled, while dogday dropped the still sleepy catnap on the chair. Picky suddenly begun to eat, not waiting for the others. Dogday trying to wake the cat again, since he begun to sleep in the table. And the others begun to talk about their day yesterday.
As the conversation continued, hoopy suddenly asked bobby."so, you got any plans today bobs?" At that question, the other critters looked at bobby, waiting for an answer. "Well, actually i plan to go to the flower field again... if it's fine?"
She said as the critters begun to get curious about her answer.
"Flower field..... you-you mean the nearby flower field out of the borders?!"
Crafty stuttered as she looked at her back to booby."didn't the 'munched' savior sa-'munched' ehem.. sorry, said that out of the borders without supervising is a big no no?" Picky asked gulping the food she was munching. Dogday was going to say something before he was interrupted by the purple cat he was nagging,"my god said he could allow bobby to go to the flower field as she likes, she has met an interesting person out there they said." Catnap suddenly spoke, face still on his arms. It was silent for a second, before chaos accrued.
"YOU SPOKE TO A HUMAN OUTSIDE THE BORDERS!?!!??"
Everyone, except catnap and hoppy shouted.
Bobby was suddenly bombarded with questions like…
“Who are they?!”
“How did you meet!?!”
“Are they nice!?!”
“D-do they like to painting???”
And more.
As bubba snapped out of his shocked trace he begun to stop the other critters from crowding bobby.” Ok, that’s enough questions for now! let bobby breathe!” Bubba said as the others suddenly came to their senses, and looked down to their feet in disappointment.
“Its-s fine, but it will take a long time to explain, is that ok?” Bobby asked, the others looked at each others or a while until they smiled at bobby, and in sync they said “ we have all the time to hear the full story!” As they smiled their iconic smile.
…..
In (y/n) house, where their grandmother suddenly shouted outside their door. “(Y/N)!!!ITS MORNING GET YOUR ASS OUT OF BED!!" (Y/N) Grumbled as they tried to bury their face in their pillow. "5 more min.u...e.." they tried to say but has fallen asleep again. It was suddenly cut short because of their door suddenly opening. "YOUNG MAN ITS MORNING AND IM TOO OLD TO DO ALL THE HEAVY WORK!! NOW GET OUT OF BED!! " grandma shouted, which resulted with (Y/N) getting up with drool on their pillow and face.
"... and get your face washed, you look like a mess. I'll be waiting outside then... do NOT take too long!!" She said as she begun to go down stairs. (Y/N) yawn as they walk towards the their washroom, splashing their face with water, and brushing their teeth.
When they were done, they begun to speed walk down stairs, and when they went outside, they see their grandmother chopping some fire woods."took you long enough! Now get here and help me with these" she said as she gestured to the previous fire woods she had cutted. As (Y/N) begun to help their grandma bring the fire woods in their shed, their grandma suddenly asked."so who was that new friend of yours, you said yesterday?" (Y/N). Stayed quiet before they begun. "Someone i suddenly met in the flower field... it was like... friend at first sight kinda thing?" (Y/N) chucked as they looked aways when their grandma looked at them with a smirk."friends at first sight ehh," HA! oh (Y/N), you always used weird words...but.. i expected that... after all you are the grandchild of the man i adored~" grandma said smiling brightly when she saw her grandchild blushing at the compliment.'you both are truly alike' she thought as she looked at her grandchild.
As the two continued their work for an hour or so, (Y/N) looked at the day, and suddenly remembered. "Grandma, umm im going to go meet my friend at the same field again.... and um.. i might be late when i-" they were interrupted when their grandma slapped hard on their back, which made them stand straight. "HA, go and have fun!! Ahhh my grandkid is now making true friends~ what good news" at their grandma's answer, they were about to argue, but remembered how their old friends was.
At the sudden gloominess surrounding them, their grandma took their chin and made them look at her, with a warm smile she begun."I'm happy you found a truthful friend in a short time dear, and if they do become like the old ones... im always here to beat them up!" With a clutch fist and a sweet smile on her face, it both made (Y/N) laugh and scared at the same time. "Thanks grandma" they mumbled as they hugged their grandmother tightly."now go out there little shrimp!! And stop hugging me tightly!! You're straining my back already." She jokingly said as she looked at her growing grandchild.
When (Y/N) finishing packing their stuff, they waved goodbye to their grandmother as they walked towards the far away field.
Their grandmother waved until she couldn't see them anymore.
"Your grandkid is finally opening up again Alfred.... how i hope you were here to see them once more" she quietly said, beside a photo frame, as she looked at the clear sky while siting on their backyard.
"Take care (Y/N)..."
(whenever i read this it feels short, eh just me problems maybe )

Hi! Could i request Ortho finding out that Idia's online friend and eventually crush is the reader? And eventually he tries to matchmake them?
Hello!! Sorry for disappearing for a whole 2 weeks 💀 I've been busy with life and I ended up writing this fic way longer than I ppanned to. I hope you don't mind! Also, I got really stuck on some parts and wasn't sure which direction to go with the story. Apologies if it feels a little rushed.
Tumblr media
Pr0ject Cupid | Idia x GN! Reader
type: fanfic
Summary: A pair of painfilly awkward people get set up by a member of the said pair's little brother.
5.8k words
tags: silly fluff, mutual crushing
Warning(s): very mild swearing
Tumblr media
no way u acc saw me
bruh i couldve seen you with my eyes closed
you dumbass u just contradicted yourself
no shit
im gonna shave your eyebrows
...
Idia stifled a laugh and couldn't hide the cheesy grin that grew on his face as his eyes read over the pixelated letters on his monitor. About 3 weeks ago, he met you on a random server, and you instantly clicked. He wasn't one to form bonds with people so quickly, whether it was online or in person, but with you, how could he resist?
You got along like Q and W on a keyboard, plus you always reciprocated his nerdy comments and never got the wrong idea about any of his intentions. The only problem was, however, that you had no idea who each other were irl.
So, one day, Idia got curious about who you really were. He ended up searching for you on Magicam using the username he knew you by. There wasn't really much he was expecting as people usually used different names for their social media compared to the more nerdy online stuff.
Idia nearly fell out of his chair when a search result popped up, and a profile with quite a few posts showed up. It was you. There was no way it wasn't you.
His heart began beating faster than usual just at reading your captions, posts of your random thoughts, and the pictures you posted. You were definitely cute, maybe the prettiest person Idia had ever seen. Even though your facial features were pixelated, you somehow managed to make them look soft and warm, like an angelic version of yourself. There were also many pictures of foods you made in the Ramshackle Dorm, selfies with your friends, and a few pictures with Grim.
Okay, now Idia was panicking. He'd never felt the way he felt right now, but from the way his heart was running a marathon and he could feel warmth slowly creeping up his face, there was only one explanation. The description matched how the characters in dating sims would feel, and this was bad. He couldn't have a cru- no no no, a c-word. No way! He didn't even want to think of the word because it would only solidify his predicament in his head.
From his panic, his finger slipped and accidentally liked one of your posts. Idia's eyes widened as he saw the damage he'd already done as his brain went into full panick mode. There was no way to undo it, even if he un-liked the post. The notification must've already gotten to your phone and you would've noticed most likely and you'd block him, think he was a stalker and never speak to him again then he'd be become even more emo and-
He changed from his usual question mark posture in his chair to sitting in a fetal position in the corner of his room, hoping for the atoms in his body to slowly merge into the wall.
His phone in his pocket vibrated, and when Idia pulled out the device to see what the notification was, his heart nearly collapsed on itself. A flinch of his arm caused his phone to be launched across his room, and for some reason, he jumped to catch it, landing on a large, disorganised pile of manga with a loud crash. He hastily unlocked his phone to see what the alert was.
'Your EP has been restored!'
Damn.
There was a smooth sliding of the door to Idia's dorm room. Ortho stood? floated? levitated? at the entrance with a confused, yet worried expression in the visible part of his face.
"Idia? I heard a loud crash, and I was worried you got injured," Ortho floated closer to his brother.
"I'm f-fine!" Idia yelped.
'Hair tinted pink, increasing heart rate, flushed cheeks,'
Ortho's eyes drifted over to Idia's several monitors until he focused on a certain one.
"Yuu's Magicam profile?"
The little robot pieced two and two together before he said, "Oh, you like [Name], don't you?"
-
This was a really, really, really bad idea...
Idia's internal panick only escalated as he was dragged walking through campus with Ortho. Leaving his dorm room usually resulted in a one-sided fight for his life as every dialogue scene he had with another person besides his brother was set to hard mode by default.
Speaking with you in person was the best way to get to know each other better, Ortho would say. The problem was, Idia knew that you didn't know who he was, so it would probably be strange to suddenly have him speaking to you.
He was lost in his panicky thoughts when he felt someone bump into him, and he felt his body tipping back. (So unique and never seen before, I know.)
A hand quickly grabbed his wrist, hoisting him back upright. Ortho sent you a beaming smile with his eyes before quickly disappearing and leaving you alone with his brother, leaving the beanstalk to fend for himself.
Idia's heart nearly flipped in his stomach as he met your eyes. You let go of his wrist when he regained his balance, he almost fell over again.
"Careful," you smiled.
In his eyes, you looked like a panel from a manhwa where the love interest was introduced with flowers, sparkles, and glitter radiating around them.
"S-sorry," He managed to spit out, somehow sounding cohesive.
"It's okay, I just hope you didn't get hurt, I tend to grab onto stuff a little too tightly," you said with a sheepish chuckle.
Your laugh. Idia's ears felt blessed with such a delicate angelic sound. Like bells chiming in his ears, more harmonic than the songs from his favourite idol group's no.1 album. His heart was sent into overdrive, and he couldn't take it anymore and decided on the most rational option in his currently mushy brain.
To run.
So he ran.
You watched his retreating form with a fond look before you turned to face Ortho, who hid in a nearby bush and sent him a thumbs up.
This was progress, at least.
- A few days ago -
You had a crush on Idia. A huge one at that. There was no debate. You didn't even bother denying it.
You knew he rarely left his dorm room, so you barely saw him during the day. Seeing a flash of flamey blue hair dart around a corner just before you could fully get a look at the twitter logo-coloured candle always managed to make your heart squeeze and an undefeatable grin etch itself on your face.
Of course, a few days into talking to your new online friend, you already knew of his true identity but chose not to inform him of the fact. From what you'd seen on campus, he was the type of person to prefer engaging with others through the comfort of a screen rather than conversing face to face. And honestly, you couldn't blame him at all. It must've felt so stifling to always be conscious of the way you carried yourself, while choosing words carefully to not offend the person in front of you or make them think badly of you while simultaneously looking like a sane, functioning person.
So, you talked to him like an online friend would. After a few days of getting to know each other through public servers and direct messaging, you soon shared your interests and found common ground in a few of them. For example, you both were addicted to gacha games with diabolocal pity systems. He also started to open up to you, though you thought it was a little fast, but people tend to share a lot when speaking to someone through pixels on a screen as they felt more at home. He talked about his struggles when interacting with people and his constant anxiety about how people perceived him.
Being someone of minimal social intelligence, the most you could do was offer some general words of comfort about how everyone was different in their own way and some people are just more advantaged in certain aspects of life, social interaction being one of them.
As your feelings grew, you couldn't help but feel like your relationship was a little one-sided. You knew who exactly you were talking to, but as far as Idia knew, he was talking to and building a relationship with a person who could've been miles and miles away and he also barely knew who [Name] was.
Man, this really sucked.
- Yesterday -
Ortho was smart. It was only obvious since his mechanical brain had the efficency of a computer with infinite RAM. He knew his brother had met a new friend online, which explained his less gloomy aura and his anxious glances at his phone whenever they were in his room together.
It didn't take long for Ortho to learn that the person Idia was talking to also attended the same school. In his mind, he viewed finding out things about you as a way to further protect his older brother from harm.
Fast forward to later that day, Ortho cornered found you in the courtyard after you'd lost a bet with Grim and had to buy him a drink from a nearby vending machine.
He called out to you enthusiastically as he practically teleported to you, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
Long story short, Ortho figured out how you felt about Idia, and he was over the moon. His brother finally had someone who he could happily spend time with, and he couldn't be happier for him. He knew Idia better than anyone, and it was certain that getting close to Idia in face-to-face terms would take a lot for him to get used to and he decided it would be best to slowly ease your way into making conversations with him without being forceful or overwhelming him.
Thus began your joint conspiracy to rizz up get to know Idia better.
- Present -
It took about a day for you to come to the conclusion that you'd most likely never see Idia during school hours whether he was on campus or not. Your schedules were so unmatched that it was ridiculous. When you had a lesson in the alchemy labs, he'd be in a P.E lesson and when you were in the history of magic, he'd be in some classroom that might as well be at the other side of Sage's Island.
Luckily for you, Ortho informed you about Idia's current whereabouts. He was in the Board Game Club's classroom, probably playing- you guessed it- board games. It felt like some sort of secret stealth mission, plotting where to catch Idia with Ortho so sneakily. You just hoped that this silly plot would work.
Now that you were in front of the clubroom's door, you had no idea what to do. Your brain already left your body shortly after your heart that was beating a mile a minute and had long since jumped out of your chest to who knows where. You'd worked so hard to get to this point (not really) and now that you were here, what were you going to do?
Showing up at his clubroom unannounced totally sounded like stalker behaviour from some poorly written fanfic, and you definitely were not about that life. What if you just entered casually? Did you have a friend in the board game club? Probably not since you didn't even know the names of the people in your homeroom class, save for Adeuce and Grim.
Deciding to swallow your nerves and whatever other anxiety that was clogging your airways, you calmly slid open the door. Surprisingly, the club had quite a few members present, but it wasn't too densely populated. Your eyes immediately lit up when familiar floaty blue flames caught your attention. He was alone on a table next to one of the room's walls. His usual board gaming partner, Azul, was nowhere to be seen. It was safe to assume he was somewhere exploiting some poor unfortunate soul of all their mortal possessions with his buy-one-get-one-free pair of henchmen.
You approached Idia, more nervous than a turkey the day before Thanksgiving. He noticed you and almost jumped out of his own skin.
Was he dreaming? If not, why else would you show up at the board game club? Before he knew it, he started to sweat. Every step you took closer to him made his poor heart run laps. The confident (Idia's POV. This does not accurately reflect current events.) stride in your step, and the smile you gave him as you approached made his face heat up, and the tips of his hair grow warmer. His flight- please there is absolutely no fight- instinct almost took over as he considered running out of the room at full speed.
There was no Ortho to help him communicate if he ended up having to talk to you. He was all alone for this pop-up Pokemon battle.
A random board game caught your eye, and you picked it up, deciding to use it as a shield to not let your conversation get stabbed in the chest by the painful spear called awkwardness.
"Hi, Idia." You said casually with your usual grin. 'Great start'
You failed to catch Idia's mortified expression as it disappeared as suddenly as it arrived. He opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't get any words out. To his surprise, you didn't seem to mind his silence and just sat down in the chair across from his.
"Sorry to bother you," you continued, "If you want me gone, just say the word." The second part was intended to be lighthearted as you let out a low chuckle after you were done talking.
He quickly scrambled into his bag and pulled out a slim, grey tablet, and began to type.
"I don't mind you being here at all, [Name]." A voice from the device's speakers that sounded too much like Idia's said. You weren't all too shocked since you'd seen him use it around school a few times and had even seen the thing floating around campus by itself. You'd just never have a conversation with "it".
"Woah, is that a voice program?Did you make it yourself? I've only seen it being used for vocaloids, and even those mess up a few times. Did you use a sample of your voice? Is everything prerecorded? If you-" You blurted out, quickly smacking a hand over your mouth to shut yourself up before you could ramble any further.
Great job, [Name].
Idia's eyes lit up with surprise at your words as he quickly started typing something on his screen. His features moulded into a proud smirk, "Yeah, it's made with a sample of my voice. I made it using a vocaloid as a reference."
"Really?!" You almost jumped out of your seat, eyes practically shining with stars. Gosh, he really was so cool.
He nodded frantically as the tips of his firey hair faded into a warmer hue. Students in his dorm had the same base interests as he did. However, he was almost always too nervous to initiate a conversation with any of them. But with you, the nervousness he felt didn't try to suffocate him for once and instead felt like a sweet, comfy flutter in his chest.
"I found this when I walked into the room, and it looked fun. Wanna play?" Your short exchange feuled you with a little more confidence as you built the courage to ask him to play a board game with you.
You hadn't even looked at the game's cover before picking it up. Imagine your surprise at finding out you'd picked up "Monopoly Bass Fishing Edition".
Great job.
Now, Idia probably saw you as some weird fish-obsessed kid (no offence to Octavinelle) who probably looked up how to make bass fishing bait in their spare time. The cover was hideous. A massive bass fish was in the middle, surrounded by loops of smaller bass fish all saying things in speech bubbles where the letters were modelled to look like bass fish. To top it all off, there was a massive glittery title in the colour of neon orange that said, "Monopoly: Bass Fishing Edition." Underneath in equally as eye tormenting sentence bordered off by a wiggly pink line that read "Get ready to be schooled!" Get it? Coz groups of fishes are called schools-
This was going to be painful.
You liked to think you knew all the rules of Monopoly by heart. Especially after seeing relationships crumble over the neverending board game.
Idia didn't seem phased, so you assumed he already knew the rules of the game, too.
You played for a bit, taking turns to roll a double to see who could start first. The first to roll a double was eventually Idia, so he took the first turn.
-
You knew Idia was competitive from the way he would obliterate the opposition during your online meet-ups in matches. What you didn't expect was to end up going bankrupt after only a few loops around the board. It took a while for you to accept defeat, but after seeing the small, triumphant smile that gently made its way onto Idia's face, any loss was worth it.
Now that you looked around the room, most of the board game club members had long since departed, and it was only you and your blue-haired friend left in the room. A blanket of quiet and slight awkwardness fell over the two of you as you both looked at anything but each other.
"We should uh, but the pieces away," you suggested.
He looked at you, a little surprised at your sudden breach of silence, before he quickly nodded. "R-Right."
After stiffly putting the pieces away, occasionally flinching when the tips of your fingers made contact as you passed some game pieces between yourselves, there wasn't much else for you to do despite twiddling your thumbs. From an outsider's point of view, the aftermath was painfully awkward as neither of you had anything to say. Sitting in silence wasn't always a bad thing, but come on.
Your brain frizzled as you tried to think of something, anything to say to start a conversation.
"Nice weather we're having today." So creative.
As if the universe was saying a big "f*ck you", there was a loud rumble of thunder outside the window before massive raindrops began to smack on to the grass and pavement outside, each with a louder 'plap!' than the previous one each time.
Idia giggled before trying to hold back a laugh, which eventually turned into even more giggles. You stared at him for a few seconds, stunned. You hadn't actually heard him laugh before as he always looked so terrified around you. Sure, he was laughing at your stupidity, but this was a start, right?
It didn't take long for you to join in, laughing at yourself too.
Maybe coming to his clubroom on impulse wasn't so bad after all.
-
"Sam's store is releasing this SSR-tier set of trading cards today, and I have to go get it," Idia muttered to himself as he scurried down a hallway of the Ignihyde dorm. "No one's gonna that early, especially since it's not gonna attract any normies-"
"But what if there's a whole mob of NPCs there? Worst case scenario is a few of them showing up to do some early morning shopping, so grabbing what I need and skidadling outta there is gonna be ez."
Ortho was most likely in his room resting at this hour, so Idia decided not to bother him. Besides, it was only a trip to the school store. He should be fine, right?
Wrong.
It was not ez peasy.
It just happened to be that the same day Idia's treasured ultra rare cards were released on the same day as Sam's new mystery drink that the whole school went crazy for. By the time Idia was about to leave the store after paying for what he came for, the whole area was packed, and it was almost impossible to move. Waves of students rushing to the till after grabbing a bottle of the new beverage washed over the store grounds.
People, people, people, and more people. Sweaty teenagers seemed to fight tooth and nail just to get their hands on a bottle. It was like the kids from the UK when Prime was launched. (iykyk) Everywhere he turned, he seemed to bump into another 3 people and get elbowed by another five. The sheer power of the crowd almost swept him off his feet, and he felt himself being dragged to the opposite direction from where he was headed. He reached his hand out to grab at something, while the other held his cards close to his chest, but there was nothing to hold onto for support. The only option was to become one with the crowd.
As he was about to give up and accept his fate, his outstretched hand was tugged on by a familiar, gentle yet firm grip, which felt like he was being pulled ashore after drifting off into the ocean. Idia's body was pulled upright and into a much less crowded space. A pleasant warmth spread across his chest as he saw the face of his saviour.
A part of him felt mortified while the other felt relieved. He was glad to have been pulled out of the sea of people, but he felt a little lame to have to have been saved by someone else, as if he couldn't handle himself. Another reason, the more obvious one, was because it was you. In his point of view, you always showed up at random times and ended up helping him without realising how much of an impact your actions held.
"I'm getting this feeling of deja vu," you smiled, leading Idia to a bench opposite the store.
"You helped me again-" Idia muttered, his eyes downcast.
You tilted your head, a little confused, "Hm?"
"N-No, it's not that I have a proble-" He cut himself off, "I, um-"
How did he manage to talk himself into a corner like this? Trying to talk to you felt like a puzzle with the myriad of emotions all rushing through his head at once, and he was bound to mess up somewhere.
"Don't sweat it," you responded. Your smile unwavering.
For whatever reason, Idia's anxious jumble of words never phased you. Your willingness to let him take his time when talking to you gave him a sort of confidence, and he could hope to speak with confidence that he didn't even know he was capable of.
A ray of reflected early morning sunlight that bounced off the shiny packaging of what Idia held securely in his hands and it caught your eye.
"Is that (insert game reference here)?!" Your voice cracked as you said the name of the franchise.
The mood was instantly lightened at your change in focus, and Idia felt himself get giddy. He was so happy to share a conversation with someone who wasn't a so-called "normie."
His excitement faded though, a bit, when he looked up to find that you looked slightly disappointed. You looked at Idia in confusion, but shrugged.
You sighed, looking away.
Why were you disappointed? Was it something he did? Oh no, what if you thought he was lame for getting trapped in a crowd like that, and you actually thought he was such a bother the whole time-
"I still haven't managed to get my hands in a copy," you frowned.
"Oh," He sounded stunned, which confused you. "Um, I-" He swallowed, fighting the urge to pull his hood over his head and hide.
"I mean-" Idia's eyes seemed to glance at everything and everywhere other than at you.
His breath caught in his throat, and the feeling multiplied by a gazillion when he saw Ortho watching him from behind a tree. He almost choked on whatever air he'd just managed to inhale into his trachea.
To make matters worse, Ortho held a cute but terrible made neon blue glittery banner that said, "Talk to them, Idia!!!"
Wasn't he resting?
The poor nerd (affectionate) wanted to evaporate on the spot.
"What were you about to say?" You asked, not seeing the silliness behind you.
Idia glanced back and forth between you and Ortho, wishing with every single bone in his body that the 50/50 gacha in front of him right now would go his way and you wouldn't turn around at all.
Imagine his horror when you followed his worryingly mortified gaze, and he saw our eyes widen a fraction, and you slapped a hand over your mouth.
"Ortho?"
He panicked for a good few seconds before he did what he did best and bolted away from you with a stubborn blush creeping up his neck.
"Huh?Wait up!" You called after him, but it was futile.
Ortho soon waved happily at you as he followed Idia back to what you assumed was the Ignihyde dorm.
-
"Where did you-" Idia began, speedwalking to the Hall of Mirrors with more agility than he knew his G-fuel filled body could possess.
"I did some research, and it showed that people your age have a 60% more chance at talking to someone they like when they're encouraged by someone else!" Ortho chirped with the certainty of the sun rising in the east.
"I'm not- It's not-" Idia couldn't find the words to use to retort at his younger brother. The way his sunny amber eyes shimmered with glee was enough to punch the words of protest that Idia could ever muster right down the drain. "J-Just tone it own a notch next time..." He finished with a small frown.
"Okay!" Ortho sang, floating into Ignihyde's mirror after the older Shroud.
Idia signed and pulled the strings of his hoodie tighter to conceal his face more. Now that you were somewhat aware of how he felt about you, he had no idea how to face you the next day.
-
It had been over a week, and you'd gotten no contact from Idia or Ortho. It was safe to assume that Idia probably didn't leave his room a single time in that time frame. A metaphorical banner was built between you as he had practically gone AWOL on everything you could use to contact him. So, you couldn't even talk to him with your online persona and try to understand how he felt by hoping he'd confide in his online bestie even a little. Not that you wanted to intrude on his privacy, but the fact that things seemed to be falling apart between you two before you properly even got to know each other hurt a lot more than th fact that you convinced yourself of- the fact that it looked like he didn't want to see you again. You sighed, closing your computer.
This was pointless. No doubt, he doesn't feel the same way towards you, and you really should start accepting it. Maybe he thought you were strange? Or it was creepy that you always seemed to be around when he was in trouble? Maybe he thought you were a stalker? He'd probably figured out your online identity and blocked you, hence the lack of activity on any of his accounts over the last week and a bit.
But you couldn't accept it. Not until you know more, and you don't think it'll help if you keep prying at the subject, especially since it won't do any good in the end. It was useless to keep trying. You grabbed your phone and checked the screen for any messages, but there were none. You put it back on the nightstand and turned on your side, burying your face in your pillow.
You lay there for what felt like forever and eventually fell asleep.
-
Morning soon arrived, and you woke up to a series of knocks at the main door of Ramshackle Dorm. The quick thuds of knuckles striking wood resounded throughout the whole bottom floor of the building, probably enough to alert your cat roommate out of his venture into Dream Land.
The perpetrator was definitely unexpected. It was a fine weekend, and you hadn't been expecting a visit from anyone at all, especially not the younger Shroud brother.
Rubbing your eyes and letting out a yawn as you opened the door, you had to squint to see something else other than a mop of flickering blue and a white block.
"Ortho?" You blinked. Your statement sounded more like a question to yourself than to the other party.
"Good morning!" Ortho said cheerfully, waving with one arm while balancing an assortment of books and various games under the other. He was carrying four plastic bags full of stuff, including a large bowl with some cereal, milk, eggs, toast, fruit, and orange juice inside it.
"Err..." you replied.
"We came to hang out!" Ortho cheered, which confused you even more.
"What? And who's 'we'??" You questioned all at once, not even knowing where to begin.
"Idia wants to apologise for running away from you for the past week. He said he's really sorry and did it because he was scared," he rambled on with his usual cheery tone and pointed to a nearby tree, "And we brought food!"
Behind said tree stood said Idia, holding onto the tree's bark with a grip for dear life while only the top half of his face peeked out.
What.
- Flashback to earlier -
"Now, what do I do? This is demon mode difficult- I'd rather fight Absolute Virtue from the original release of FF11 all over again for 16 hours straight than face them again... Can I get an F in the chat for this one..." Idia mumbled to himself in a string of incomprehensible gibberish as he sat in a fetal position at the corner of his room while his hood covered his entire head, and he rocked back and forth.
"This is the worst-"
"Cheer up, Idia!" Ortho handed him a charger, "You can always talk to them online if it helps!"
"At this point, they've probably forgotten about me. People's online friends get Men in Black'ed from their brains all the time. I'll just look like some weird guy that goes,'Hey kids!wanna to get free RAM for your computer?' or something-" his rampant thoughts only dug him further into his self-made pit of despair.
"Hmm," Ortho pondered, "Let's go see them!"
"Are you kidding?! No way!" He shook his head rapidly and started rocking himself even faster, "If they don't see me, maybe they'll even forget I exist and I can become one with the void..."
"Don't be ridiculous, Idia. We can go see them right now!" Ortho hovered around, gathering a bunch of gaming equipment and books, "Hanging out like friends will get rid of any tension in the air!"
"No!" Idia protested, but it was too late.
He'd already been picked up by a robotic arm, and off they went.
-
"That's pretty much what happened," Ortho recalled as you lead the pair the lounge.
"Right... But I still don't get how that means he's sorry..." You muttered.
"Why don't you tell them, Idia?" Ortho looked at his brother, "I'll leave you two to talk here while I make some snacks!"
The older Shroud twiddle his fingers and stared at the floor, his hood still covering his head.
It took a few seconds of silence before Idia began talking.
"Uh," he spoke quietly and cleared his throat twice before proceeding, "I was so stupid."
"Huh?" You said, gaping at Idia.
"I know I've done stupid things, but this was beyond stupid. Like, way too stupid! Noob at Subway Surfers level of stupid!" He babbled on, his voice cracking with uncharacteristic emotion.
He took a deep, shaky breath and closed his eyes, attempting to compose himself. His hair turning pink. "I kept telling myself it was okay for us to keep being friends online even though I found your Magicam page and accidentally liked one of your posts and knew who you were but you didn't know who I was and I felt guilty and then you suddenly showed up then I realised I l-l-like you and then that thing at the shop happened and you probably thought it was so cringe-"
Then it clicked. So he thought you thought he was weird? He didn't hate you.
It felt like a huge weight was lifted off your chest.
Then, you chuckled, snickered, giggled, then let out waves of laughter. Idia stared at you, dumbfounded.
"This whole time, haha, I thought I was the one who did something wrong."
"No! You didn't," He quickly jumped in.
"Wait, you just said that you like me...?" You pointed to yourself, and you felt your face grow warm.
Silence landed like a wall of pure steel between the two of you.
He gaped at you with wide eyes. Dang it! He seriously didn't mean to blurt that part out loud. Curse him and his tendency to blab everything he thought aloud as soon as he started talking!
Idia covered his reddened face with his hands.
"What a coincidence," you smiled, "Since I like you too."
You gently pulled his hands away from his face and gave him your brightest grin. He froze as soon as your skin made contact, and his breathing quickened, his hair turned a full, passionate pink.
"Ahahahaha...!" He stammered.
A sudden noise filled both the room, followed by a long silence, causing the both of you to turn towards the source. Your heads turned in sync to see Ortho standing at the door with a camera after it let out a painfully loud 'click!'
He gave the pair of you a huge smile with his eyes.
"For memories' sake!" He cheered.
-
Bonus
After you'd made breakfast together with the ingredients that the brothers brought, you, Idia and Ortho, sat in a triangle on the floor, while Grim watched lazily from the sofa. It was more of a joint interrogation performed against the little robot with Grim serving as an audience.
"So, Ortho, you knew Idia already knew who I was?" You raised an eyebrow, "And you knew about how he felt??"
"And you already knew that they liked me? And you knew they knew who I was and didn't tell me??" Idia squeaked, "And you told them to come to the store that day?!"
Ortho picked up a controller and was suddenly immersed in gameplay.
"Haha..." He sweatdropped.

Yuu get´s stabbed-Diasomnia
Malleus
he was about to turn into a Dragon and devour everybody in his way when he smelled blood on you
and then was just floored when you casually told you got stabbed and are on your way back from the infirmary
after he gathered himself he wanted you to tell who stabbed you but all he got out of you was that you already dealt with the person so he doesn´t have to bother
also you decided to distract him with Gargoyles and it worked so he quickly forgot about the fact he just wanted to casually murder a bunch of people
but as soon as both of you are done he´ll try to get you to tell him again
Lilia
both of you had a stabbing contest and you lost which obviously meant you got stabbed
but at least it was more like a scratch than an actual stab wound, I mean it hurts even more than one but he can just slap a band-aid onto it and calls it a day
which is a bad thing because instead of a normal one he used one coated in poison
and yeah it didn´t end well, good thing you immediately went to the nurse so by the time you fainted you were already near them
Lilia just told you sorry and tried to give you some food he made himself
which if you didn´t know better you would say he tried to murder you actually scratch that maybe he does just want to kill you for fun
Silver
he has no idea how you got stabbed between him falling asleep and him waking up
but he was immediately in panic mode and quickly brought you to the nurse and stayed awake the entire time until he hears your no longer in danger than he´ll be asleep for a couple hours minimum
he fell asleep so fast the nurse almost thought he fainted
but no he was tired after learning you were bleeding out and just decided instead of getting help you just let him keep sleeping immediately after he woke up
he deserves some more ZZZs
but maybe you should call Lilia to let him know
Sebek
you decided to annoy him and he agreed to a sword fight, which ended with accidentally impaling you
and him screaming/apologizing to you the entire time while he drags you to the nearest first aid kit and if you weren´t to busy not going deaf you would have told him to get you to the nurse
because a stab wound isn´t really something you can slap a band-aid on and call it a day
after Sebek calmed down a bit he also noticed that hey maybe he should get them to the nurse instead
which ended in you dragged away and he screams at the nurse to fix you
if you have to stay for a longer while he´ll visit you and scream an apology at you
more than you expected to be honest, you thought he would just scold you for getting stabbed

Can you do Nezha, Wukong, Macaque, and Red Son with reader who is on their period? Like Wukong and Macaque know what’s going on, (they grew on flower fruit mountain with female monkeys) but Nezha and Red Son have no idea at first and panic before someone explains the whole deal to them. (All four separately or in the same friend group.)
🎆🐉
Oooo I have a Macaque period comfort thingy already cause Friend suggested him
But if course! I'm a little bit back, but things are gonna be slow until I clean out my inbox
Anyways!
NeZha!
This poor boy
He has no idea wtf you are on about
But all he knows is you're in pain and that is not good.
So he brew some tea that helps with stomach pain, gets you all swaddled up in a blanket and doesn't let you move an inch
As he goes out of "protective" mode, he then listens to you and how this affects your body
Safe to say he was .. a little weirded out but he knows its apart of you so he doesn't comment, only asks questions
Which you explain
Oh, and he brings home so much fucking chocolate the next time this happens
And a good hoodie with your favorite sweatpants
Wukong!
He catches on quickly when you are found sobbing about a cute cat.
He immediately sets you in bed with a heating pad and painnkillers with a heating pad
Then got you your favorite take out and sat in bed with you
He binged your comfort series with you
He then laid there as you used him as a plushie, accepting his fate as the said plushie
Over the months, he can sorta accurately pinpoint when your next period is gonna be, and stocks up in advance
He also memorized your period cravings, and stocks up on them as well
Macaque!
Oh this boy is coming in with a SWAT shield
He knows what this shit did with the monkeys, he ain't taking chances
But once he goes on, he realizes what eggshells to avoid stepping
He makes you dinner, whatever you're craving
He then will buy some desserts for you, and go out and grab your weighted blanket wherever it is
And gives you all the plushies you have cause mans got shit to do, but he will give you a T-shirt.
(Why can Wukong take a day off? Cause he's Wukong and he does whatever TF he wants)
Oh! And he washes anything and everything that you may bleed on, dudes used to the blood
RedSon!
This man... Mfer is so confused
His mother never bothered to really explain anything to him, so... Eh?
Once you tell him, he tries researching and does understand it a bit better
So she sets to work
They'll set up a massage for you whenever you ask for
Let's you soak in the bathtub for as long as possible
Gets chefs to make you the most exquisite food
And, last but not least, dies use her heat to help with your cramps.
10/10 would recommend getting pampered by this ma'am any day of the week

SAY MY NAME.
pairing: han yujin x gn!reader | genre: high school au, opposites attract trope, fluff | w/c: +3.9k words | warnings: nothing but fluff <3
Tumblr media
for years han yujin has been harboring a crush on his childhood friend
from the day he first met them as seat mates in middle school to the day they moved away to now, those gradually blossoming feelings have never wilted out like the dying flowers he thought they’d become
transitioning to high school was tough without them, but when he finally learnt to open up to others, he thrived
he made new friends, became more popular among his classmates, all while still being the cute and shy boy he’d always been
though in the back of his mind, he’d be up at night wondering if he’d ever run into his childhood friend again
maybe it was wishful thinking, but he missed having someone in his life who he saw so much of himself in
someone with similar interests, quirks, and heart
a person that’s… the complete opposite of you
ever since he first saw you walk into the classroom with your nose held high in your textbooks, the cold and studious first impression has yet to wash away
you didn’t answer to anyone unless it was school related, not a care in the world about what people thought of you
yujin could never relate to that
your only goal was to be the top student, and secondary to that was anything else that’d make a pretty addition to your résumé
the day your two paths crossed was on your first day as second years
that morning, yujin was talking to his best friend, park gunwook, in the hallway
“yujin, did you hear we’re getting a new transfer student?”
the boy shakes his head
“hopefully they’re nice. I’ll probably have to show them around, help them adjust, all that stuff,” gunwook continues, which spirals into a ramble of all the responsibilities he’ll have when he’s inevitably re-elected as class president
yujin just hums in agreement, twisting the cap off his plastic water bottle and taking a sip
the two eventually reach their classroom
and sitting in one of the seats is a face he’d recognize anywhere
it’s none other than his childhood friend… they’re back
he chokes on his water and bursts into a fit of coughs that draws everyone’s attention, including their’s
the new transfer student is his childhood friend… how is he supposed to approach them, speak to them, act around them…
he gets so flustered that he turns around to leave and run out of the room
not noticing you were already walking in through the propped open door with your eyes down in the midst of reading a book
one thing leads to another, and before yujin can prevent himself from the mess he’s about to cause, his hand is already squeezing around the open water bottle out of shock and water splashes onto your uniform and the fresh pages of your book
you’re scarily still for the first few seconds, so much that yujin feels a chill run down his spine
it’s like his life just flashed before his eyes
“are you serious?” you say through gritted teeth, your glare burning into his skull like flames
yujin doesn’t have the guts to say anything, which only makes you more aggravated
you take a step forward and open your mouth to chew him out but gunwook wedges himself between the two of you
“come on, y/n, don’t be too harsh on him. he didn’t mean for this to happen,” gunwook says, trying to remedy the situation
you’re not pleased by that in the slightest
gunwook quickly takes off his blazer and hands it out to you as a peace offering
but you only scoff at it and shake your head. “I don’t need your help, park.”
you push him out of the way and stand face to face with yujin
“don’t you owe me an apology?”
he hesitates for a moment, still in panic mode, but you shut him down before he can even get a word in
“forget it. you’re not worth my time.”
tossing the damp book into the trash can, you storm out of the classroom and not once do you look back
and yujin thinks to himself, from that day on, he’ll avoid you at all costs
in the months following the incident, yujin does just that
if he sees you, he’ll walk in the opposite direction
if you so much as turn your head his way, he’ll steer clear of all eye contact
instead, he concentrates on mustering up the courage to confess to his long term crush, his reunited friend from his middle school years
though in all honesty, a lot has changed even in the short time they’ve been gone
they haven’t exactly reconnected like he anticipated, but it’s not like they’re total strangers either
he understands that they’re no longer in the same social circles, no longer attached to the hip, no longer conversing over the same talking points like they used to
but he still wants to give himself a chance to confess before it’s too late
with both the help and motivation from gunwook, yujin comes up with the perfect plan
he retrieves a carton of chocolate milk—their favorite—from the cafeteria and writes a note in the pink origami heart he learned how to make the night prior
meet me by the field after school! -h.yj
time feels painfully longer when having to wait for it to pass
yujin rocks his heels back and forth on the ground, checking the notifications on his phone that he’s already been scrolling through for the past five minutes
he wanted to be the one to arrive at the field first, but his nerves were only amplifying in an echo chamber of anxiety
“what do you want?”
he jumps from the abruptness of your voice but gets even more surprised when he realizes it’s you
he lets out an awkward cough and quietly says, “oh, sorry, I’m waiting for someone.”
you pull out the unfolded origami heart from your pocket
“so this wasn’t you?”
yujin does a double take, eyes widening as his mistake was staring at him straight in the face
he had somehow set the chocolate milk and the note on the wrong desk
“no, it was me. you’re the one I was waiting for,” he lies, attempting to make it seem as if he was joking earlier
he has to hold himself back from grimacing
why was it always so hard for him to own up to his feelings? shout out to the world that he has a crush and is currently messing that up?
you quirk an eyebrow. “what is it then?”
yujin falls silent and he can already tell your patience is running thin
he doesn’t know how to respond, other than with the truth, and blurts out the first excuse that comes to mind as you say
“look, I’m not interested—”
“can you tutor me?”
“you want me to tutor you?” you repeat
“yes, of course, you’re the smartest one in our class.”
“what subject?”
“umm… everything?”
“are you seriously failing all your classes?”
“yes…?”
“why do you sound so unsure of yourself?”
yujin gulps. “it’s just a little embarrassing to admit, I guess.”
“well, I was planning to take a break from tutoring this year, but if you’re really in need of help, I can make an exception.” you pull out a business card from the front pocket of your bag. “this has all my contact information and tutoring rates. we can figure out whatever meeting times are convenient for the both of us later. sound good?”
he gives you a wordless nod of affirmation, and with that, his fate is sealed
you turn around to leave
however, unlike the last encounter, you look back
“hey, what’s your name again?”
“yujin, han yujin,” he nearly stutters out his own name
you curtly nod, walking away while quietly mumbling his name as a reminder to remember it
yujin closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, wonder what he just got himself into
the first meet is on a monday at the library after school
to put it shortly, it’s a disaster
“weren’t you the one that asked me to tutor you? I wouldn’t have agreed if I knew you’d get this distracted.”
yujin couldn’t focus in the slightest
he didn’t want to be there, which was unfortunate since he could’ve used this as an actual opportunity to boost up his class rank
yet he wanted to be living his life, putting off his studies until the last minute like he normally does
he tells himself to put up with all your complaints and scoldings just to appease you, but it only leads to him reaching his breaking point about a whopping three meetings later
“I lied.”
“great, now finish your practice questions.”
yujin grunts in a fit of frustration. “aren’t you curious as to what I lied about?”
“not really. you can tell me after you finish your practice questions.”
you won’t hear him out otherwise, so he does as told
you check the worksheet, marking all the incorrect answers before setting down your red pen and resting your chin in the palm of your hand with boredom
“I’m listening.”
“the note I gave you to meet me at the field that day… it was actually meant for someone else.”
“so you were planning to confess to someone.”
“yes,” yujin confirms before a wave of confusion hits his face. “wait, what? you knew?”
you shrug. “it was more of a heavy suspicion with the heart and the chocolate milk. but you were the one that asked for tutoring so I couldn’t say no to a client.”
“but you practically knew I was lying! I thought you hated people wasting your time.”
“I do. it’s what I hate more than anything. I only accepted because I need the money.” you stand up and begin to pack your belongings. “now that everything’s all cleared up, we can go our separate ways, right?”
“no!” yujin shouts, garnering weird looks from everyone in the library
feeling embarrassed with all the eyes drawn to you, you decide to leave anyways
and yujin finds himself chasing after you
at first, there’s not much rhyme or reason as to why, just a lingering ambiguity of regret and general instinct
though as he catches up to you towards the front of the school, he starts to piece together what it is that he’s feeling
the thing about yujin is that he never goes out of his way to make things right
if he makes a mistake, then he’ll ignore the entire situation all together until the remorse and responsibility fade away
that’s what he’s always been doing with you, cowardly entering and exiting your personal space without permission and then having nothing to make up for it
he yells for you to wait up, but you don’t stop in your tracks until he runs faster and blocks your path
you roll your eyes. “what?”
yujin catches his breath. “look, I’m sorry for being a nuisance. I want to apologize by working harder. I’ll pay more attention this time and get my grades up.”
“you don’t have to pity me. I’ll still survive with or without the tutoring money.”
“I’m not pitying you! I know I didn’t come into this with the best intentions, but I’ll make your time worth it, I promise.”
to you, his words may not bear much weight, but you decide to give him one last chance. if things started going south, then hopefully he’d get the hint and you could drop him for good
“we start again the day after tomorrow. don’t be late.”
while your doubt initially overtook any faith you had in the boy, yujin turns out to be better than you thought he was
you figure out he’s not failing all his classes like he had exaggeratedly claimed before
he’s more of a decent student that could use a good push, and once you help him tap into his potential, yujin actually begins to see an improvement in his grades
little by little, you even find other aspects of your life seeping into his too
such as eating lunch together
it wasn’t a daily must, but yujin felt bad constantly seeing you eat lunch by yourself, despite your protests of enjoying the solitude
it started with him calling you over to ask questions on the class material, and then slowly evolved into him inviting you over with no particular reason at all
as his best friend, gunwook would be there as well
“park.”
“hello to you too, l/n.”
yujin can’t help but snort, eating his lunch in amusement. “you guys are still so formal with each other.”
“competition is competition. I’m going to outrank you someday, l/n,” gunwook declares with a playful smirk
you only rest your head on the desk, using your arms as a cushion
“try me, park. try me.”
“you’re not going to eat?” yujin points out
“forgot to bring anything. was too tired from work last night.”
yujin takes a snack from his lunch bag and taps your arm with it before placing it on the desk
reluctantly, you accept the offering
“how do you do it?” gunwook queries. “my parents don’t allow me to have a part-time job, because they want my main priority to be school and the debate team.”
you sigh. “I work hard because if I don’t, then what else do I have? making friends and going out doing nonsense is for the people who have the time and money to afford it.”
albeit a bit hurt, yujin appears more puzzled than disappointed by your answer
“doing nonsense? you mean having fun?”
you continue on explaining, ignoring his comment, “I used to do my regular tutoring schedule and my part-time job last year, but it became too exhausting. some students are just a piece of work.”
“except me, right?”
you give him a small nod, lips curling upward just a fraction, but even that makes yujin’s heart skip a beat. “thankfully, you’re one of the better ones.”
for the majority of the lunch period, gunwook’s the one to actually keep you entertained, the two of you casually engaging in an academic conversation that has yujin lost in his own thoughts
“but seriously, y/n, you need to relax sometimes. you’ll get burnt out if you keep going like this,” gunwook says, tapping below his eye to refer to your dark circles
yujin begins to notice just how tired you are, the layers of fatigue sewn into your skin
and it’s in that moment a lightbulb goes off in his head
“oh, I have a good idea! y/n, can we cancel our tutoring session later today?”
“no,” you instantly shut him down, resulting in him childishly sulking
“can we do something after then? it’ll be a surprise!”
‘I hate surprises’ is what you want to say, but his pleading eyes oddly have an effect on you
and that’s how he lures you into a rare afternoon detour
“an arcade?”
“yeah!” he cheers, then studies your wary reaction. “you’ve never been?”
you give him a pointed look. “what do you think the answer to that question is?”
yujin pouts, rambling on and on about how he knew this wasn’t exactly your scene but was still baffled to the fact you’ve never stepped foot into an arcade in your life
he brings this up when you majorly lose to him in air hockey, dance dance revolution, and every game under the sun
your reflexes are some of the worse he’s ever seen
however, you still let him explain the rules each time and don’t get upset when you crash and burn, so he appreciates your efforts to try and understand the experience
then lastly, he guides you towards the line of claw machines, peering at the prizes inside each one
he asks if there’s anything you’re interested in, but you just let him choose
he goes with one filled with pastel colored stuff animals, aiming for a baby blue bunny that he ends up completely missing
“do you want to give it a try?” he asks but inserts the cash and ushers you forward before you’ve even decided yet
toying with the buttons experimentally, you give it your best shot
“ah, that was so close!” yujin’s hands shoot up to weave through his hair as you almost had it
“stupid machine,” you mutter, kicking the bottom of it with your sneaker. “aren’t these things just money suckers? what’s so fun about them?”
“you’re just saying that because you didn’t win.”
“oh, I’ll win,” you say with determination, your competitive side finally taking over
yujin goes around analyzing the side angles and directing you where to move the claw, and while you don’t verbal respond, he can see by the claw movements that you’re listening to him
once it’s aligned to your liking, you watch as it drops and barely latches onto the bunny’s ear, miraculously holding on enough to release it right into the prize box in the corner
yujin audibly celebrates the success more than you do, but there’s prominent sense of accomplishment you throughly enjoy
you retrieve the stuffed bunny and shove it in his hand. “here.”
he tries to give it back but you stubbornly refuse to take it from him
“don’t you want to keep it? you won it, after all,” he says
“I don’t really care for stuffed animals. it kind of looks like you though, so consider it yours. think of it as a gift for improving your test scores.”
he innocently holds the stuffed bunny up to his face. “it looks like me?”
you laugh, and yujin thinks it’s the most beautiful laugh he’s ever heard
you teasingly tilt your head and put a finger on your chin, an action so out of character that he’s almost memorized by it
“hmm… maybe the bunny’s a little cuter.”
a chuckle escapes from yujin’s lips and his eyes refuse to leave the ground
but when he looks back up again, he’s met by your warm and comforting expression, a side he’s never seen of you before
and while the moment passes and the day comes to an end, you’re the last thing on his mind that night and the first thing the next morning
then in the following weeks, thinking of you becomes routine
it makes him reflect on why he held onto his previous crush for so long, because you’re nothing like them yet the way he feels about you is stronger than anything he’s ever felt before
his entire life, yujin’s always been stuck in his comfort zone
and he thought that to like someone, the more things they have in common, the better
yujin thinks about how you both have opposite upbringings, opposite hobbies, opposite personalities, and how none of that really matters to him
in fact, it’s one of the main reasons he’s grown to like you so much
he likes letting you into his world, and his heart flutters when you let him into yours
whether it’s you telling him about your favorite books or the kind of music you listen to when you study, he wants to know it all
one day, he searches his room for the book he had bought all those months ago
it ignites a sense of nostalgia in him when he finds it, the memory now feeling so distant considering how far your relationship has developed since
though when he gifts it to you, he doesn’t quite get the reaction he’s expecting
“oh, thanks. how did you know I needed a new copy?”
yujin’s almost dumbfounded by the question
“because… I was the one that ruined the original… I got water all over it, remember? I actually bought the new one not too long after everything happened, but I was too scared to give it to you.”
“oh, that was you?” there’s a small glimpse of guilt in your eyes for not remembering. “sorry, I’ve never been good with names and faces.”
“but you remembered gunwook’s name back then. you called him park.”
“because he’s class president and a high ranking student. you know what they say, keep your friends close and your enemies closer,” you say half-jokingly
“are you only interested in people like gunwook?”
“well, I wouldn’t say that. I like you, don’t I?”
yujin’s face can’t help but glow a bright red
he knows you don’t mean it as a confession, though a part of him wishes he could’ve poured his heart out right then and there nonetheless
and that’s not the only instance where he gets that inclination
it’s the very thing that eats away at him until he finally plans to act on it
he waits until the end of the semester for final exams to be over so he doesn’t accidentally overwhelm or burden you while you’re already stressed out
“is it just me or am I getting déjà vu?” is the first thing you say when you meet him in the familiar location by the field
his stance is awkward, smile crooked, and his hands are stiffly hidden behind his back
there’s a brief pause in the air as he mentally prepares himself again and again with what he had practiced beforehand
firstly, an icebreaker
“so, what are you doing over break?”
you rack your brain for a second. “probably just picking up more shifts at work. nothing interesting.”
“I’ll be able to visit you though, right?”
“sure,” you say with an airy laugh at his eager tone, “I mean, we can just hang out whenever too, but I’m guessing that’s not what you brought me here to talk about.”
you’re about to confront him on his weird posture, but he abruptly beats you to the punch
“close your eyes and hold your hand out,” he instructs
“why?”
“just do it.”
yujin nervously places a small item in the center of your palm and covers it up by folding your fingers to form a fist around it
when he tells you to open your eyes again, you curiously unravel your fingers and look at it with a blank expression
“why are you giving me your name tag?”
“you really don’t know what it means?” yujin slowly asks, scratching the nape of his neck. “then it means nothing, sorry for bothering you!”
he tries to to end the conversation at that, but you hook a hand around his wrist to prevent him from walking away
“yujin,” you call out his name softly, “just be honest with me.”
he freezes, and it feels like an eternity has passed until—with a sudden splurge of confidence—he holds your hand that was originally on his wrist and takes a step closer to you
“when someone gives a person their name tag, it means that they like them.”
it’s right there he realizes he’ll remember this moment forever, because it’s the first time he’s ever made you speechless
he uses the hand not intertwined with yours to point at your cheeks
“y/n, are you blushing?”
you immediately swat his hand away. “no, I’m not.”
he stares at you patiently for a proper response to his confession, an annoying grin plastered on his face like he’s taunting the answer out of you
silently, you remove the name tag from your blazer and place it in his palm
“can I hear your answer aloud?”
that makes you snap your head up and gently push him by the shoulder. “hey, you technically didn’t say it outright either!”
yujin bursts out into laughter, but once the atmosphere becomes quiet again, it’s his turn to blush
“I like you, y/n. I really, really like you.”
you give his hand a light squeeze. “and I really, really like you too, han yujin.”

Hi! Just a quick message to say that I love your analysis on Katara and Zuko and their dynamics with each other. I personally love how you place the emphasis on them having their journey towards growth together, but an individual one as well. I've only started watching AtlA two years ago, but reading your remarks during my second rewatch of the show made me appreciate the nuances of their relationship and arc more <3 I was just wondering, because you've made some good Zutara fic recs in the past, which Zutara long fic would you absolutely recommend? Thank you so much!
aww, thank you so much! i haven't read long zutara fics in quite some time actually but off the top of my head here are my favs:
the color of the stars by bluenebulae: yes i know i've recommended this fic a hundred times already but i will continue to do so bc it's SO GOOD. this is a book 3 canon divergence where zutara get captured together on DoBS and need to find their way back to the gaang together and it is just everything.
tempest in a teacup by akaVertigo: if you've been around in zutara fandom for a while, you probably already know this fic but i couldn't not include it. this is an au where katara ends up in the fire nation as a child after her mother's death and she and zuko grow up together. fire nation katara AUs do make me a little suspicious because they can easily be done wrong, but this one does it right and the writing is absolutely stunning so trust me when i say you won't be let down.
zuko's tiny dilemma by boogum: book 1 au where zuko is accidentally turned into a 6 year old (with his 16 year old consciousness) and the gaang ends up having to take care of him. i know that sounds like a weird set-up for romantic zutara but i promise nothing gross happens. it's actually a very funny, sweet and wholesome fic so i strongly encourage that you give it a chance!
the worst prisoner by emletishfish: book 1 au where sokka accidentally kidnaps zuko during the events of the blue spirit, and shenanigans and zutara ensue. this is the funniest zutara fic i have ever read AND there are two more installments in the series so you will be good to go for a long time.
(i couldn't find this fic in my bookmarks at first because my browser logged me out of ao3 and i nearly had a breakdown thinking it was gone forever and texted my friends in full panic mode, so that should tell you how much i adore it.)
once around the sun by eleventy7: i would be deeply remiss in offering fic recommendations if i didn't mention one of the most goated zutara fics of all time. i'll warn you now that though this fic has a happy ending, you should absolutely check the tags or you will be stabbed in the heart halfway through just like i was. the pain is definitely worth it, though.
i hope you enjoy reading these! <3

some of the HQ boys with a girlfriend that's afraid of heights. (kuroo, oikawa, iwaizumi, and hinata.)
background: you and him went to shibuya tower for a date, and once you reached the 45th floor, you started to cry due to the view above tokyo. unbeknownst to him, the one that set up the date, you were deathly afraid of heights.
content: (🦷) tooth-rotting fluff, a sprinkle of angst, them comforting you, kuroo is.. kuroo, mini plot twist in oikawa's, knight-in-shining-armor iwaizumi, can be imagined in timeskip, you and hinata are very cute, based off of real-life events.
⚠ warning/s: reader has a panic attack.
Tumblr media
KUROO TETSURŌ
on the elevator up the tower, he goes to you and is all like, "you sure you aren't scared?" with his taunting lil smirk because bro can see right through you
you give him a nod and put on your bravest face
you get off the elevator and everything is going well!!
ti'll you see the windows surrounding you with tokyo's city lights below.
the closer you step to the windows, the more you start to feel uneasy, your breathing shortening every second
you can't help but tear up from the panic
kuroo sees this and hushes you, pressing your face against his chest so that you don't have to see anymore of the view through the windows
"see? i knew you weren't okay with this." kuroo mumbles, patting your head gently to calm you down
you explain that you didn't want to let him down on your date because of your irrational fear
he reassures you that it's not irrational and you both make a mental note to communicate properly next time
"let's go to gift shop. there might be some cute plushies that you'd like." he winks at you, and you nod happily
TŌRU OIKAWA
due to popular belief, this bastard is scared with you.
BRO'S WHINING TO GET OFF THE ELEVATOR AS SOON AS IT STOPS
now it's you that has to calm him down.
"didn't he set up this date..?" you thought
once he gets used to it, he asks you to take pictures of him
and damn it does he look good in every angle.
the pictures are a bit shaky because though he's alright now, you still aren't
"y/n, y/n! let's go to that photo booth over there!" he exclaims enthusiastically, as if he wasn't just absolutely terrified a few minutes ago
you're here trying not to cry while this dumbass is prancing around, enjoying his time here
he notices your stumbling figure, your head hung low, and a gloomy aura from you overall
he asks what's wrong, and you look up at him with tears threatening to fall from the corner of your pretty eyes
his face morphs to one of shock as he pulls you in for a comforting and warm hug
"i'm sorry, y/n.. i didn't know that you were scared of heights." he apologizes, and you can feel the sincerity in his tone as he rubs the back of your hand reassuringly
it's safe to say that you both got down from the tower and vowed never to go there again.
IWAIZUMI HAJIME
he already knew at some point that you had a fear of heights
the way your face showed a tiny hint of distress when he said that you'd be going to shibuya tower was his "i knew it." moment
as expected, you're crouching around uncomfortably, trying to avoid looking at the windows
iwaizumi finds it a bit cute at first
but he realizes it's serious when he sees your glassy eyes
protective mode: ON.
he lets you ring an arm around his bicep (which he may have flexed) and hide your face into his shoulder
GOSH HE FEELS LIKE YOUR KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR RN
"don't be scared, i'm here." he says
EHKEDHSKDHSKSH THAT GAVE YOU BUTTERFLIES
YOU ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE HUNDRES OF METERS UP IN THE AIR BECAUSE OF IWAIZUMI'S CHARMING-NESS (????)
SHŌYŌ HINATA
bro's always talking about how he wants to fly, but when he's up a few hundred meters, suddenly his legs are jelly.
LIKE.
PICK A STRUGGLE. WE CAN'T BOTH BE WIMPS⁉️⁉️
so here you both are, clutching onto each other for dear life, trying to find places to take pictures at
hinata's trying to make this date fun by shifting his attention to something oTHER THAN THE VIEW BELOW.
but one look at your troubled face, and he opts to get you on the ground as soon as possible
once you're both finally down from shibuya tower, you burry yourself into hinata's shoulder and mumble, "can we never do that again?"
hinata smiles gleefully, seeing you in a lighter mood than before, "yeah, never again."
"promise?" you hold out your pinky finger
and hinata links his with yours, "promise!"

SXF Chapter 93 Analysis-Loid on Anya's Past
Okay, I wanted to talk about this scene in this post first.
Tumblr media
I love how Twilight doesn't ask Anya this question in his Twilight mode. It didn't feel like he was interrogating her. He was just genuinely curious about the origins of his adoptive daughter and this just shows that this curiosity about her past was always within his thoughts.
Tumblr media
And judging Anya's reaction upon his sudden question, she didn't look like scared and panicky to me. She's just like genuinely surprised, like oh, is it weird that I'm good at it? Her expression kinda reminds me of her reaction at Loid correcting her name on Chapter 90.5
Tumblr media
The same deadpan stare.
My guess is that her name and classical language were both things that were part of her identity before she can even remember it. And it being questioned makes her a little curious and confuse about herself as well.
I think classical language was a natural for thing for Anya, it could be from the place she grew up in and I don't think it was a product of the experiments on her (if it was, she would be conscious about being too good about it for she always tries to hide anything that might reveal her being a telepath). So I think her knowledge of classical language would not connect her relation to the experiments but rather to her origins which she may not have a memory of.
Tumblr media
I think that Anya might be telling the truth on this part. She was so little back then (1-3 years old, I suppose), I'm sure all she can remember was being experimented on and not anything about her early stages in her life where she was not in the custody of the scientists but rather with her real family. (But at least she has some memories of her biological mother, based on her reaction on the Eden interview, she might have been with Anya for a quite some time)
I believe that this could serve as a turning point for Twilight to delve deeper into Anya's background. But as I already discussed from this post, he has this hesitance when it comes to digging deep about his fake daughter, for he could stumble upon a truth that he might not be capable of accepting. A truth that might take her away from him.
Tumblr media
Following their conversation that night, Anya appeared unconcerned about Loid's inquiries regarding her knowledge of the classical language. He likely dismissed that curiosity from his mind. If he was planning to research about Anya, Anya would definitely know and of course she would panic and worry about him finding about her abilities.
But it revealed to us one thing, Loid is indeed concerned about Anya's history, he didn’t completely pushed the thought in his mind, meaning it was indeed something that he considered to be crucial, but he is choosing to not make it his priority to know, I guess he still in the mindset that there’s no use in prying too much or rather it wouldn’t be good for him, his mission and their family if he did.
Okay, enough of the serious stuff, now let me appreciate the father-daughter moments they have in this chapter
Tumblr media
Aww he looks so proud of his little girl, they both come a long way!
Tumblr media
Just look at her precious smile!❤️❤️😭 The father-daughter interaction I crave! I hope there's more of this, please, Endo-sensei
Tumblr media
And this exchange between them, Twilight/Loid is becoming more of a real father to Anya, I just love to see him so concerned about his baby. I wonder if he was putting the blanket back on her every time he saw she had kicked it off so she won't cold when she wakes up. That was canon for me.
So I'll be talking about the other half of Chapter 93 on another post which focuses on my thoughts about Demetrius and the Desmonds.

I love the norm x Navi trader that you write! I’d love to see something where they do end up having a kid but end up with twins which are probably like super rare for Navi
This has been in my inbox for a millenia
Two Blessings
Pairing- Norm x Na'vi!reader
Summary- Norm Fluff w/ pregnant reader and the birth of twins.
Warnings- Pregnancy, pregnancy with twins, mentions of throwing up, birth, descriptions of the said birth, cursing
Na'vi Translations: kalweyaveng- son of a bitch, Tsawke- Sun, Oare- moon
Tumblr media
Tsahik Mo'at rubbed her cool hand on your little bumped up belly and her face contorted to one of confusion. You begin to worry and squeeze your mate's hand and look at him full in panic mode. He winced at how strong you hrip was thinking the great mother ve decided to go Na'vi form today. She brought her other hand to your stomach on two different parts. Her mouth opened slightly and the sides curled up slightly. She pulled her hands from your stomach and put the few things she brought with her in her bag. This did nothing to ease your panic and worry.
"Do not worry 'eveng." She said, smiling towards you. "Eywa has blessed you," she said and you were now even more confused as was Norm you already knew that much. "With two." She said and Norm's eyes widened as he looked at your stomach.
He was in shock, two. Two kids. His kids. His thumb caressed your stomach as he looked to Mo'at who was getting a sign from the great mother.
"They have strong hearts. One will be mighty and brave but she will be careless." Your smile widened that you were going to have a daughter. "The other he will be less brave but will be a great healer and smarter than his sister." She said looking into the space before blinking.
She left you two and Norm's hand rested on your stomach he leaned down and placed two small kisses on your tummy making you giggle before sitting up and throwing you hands over his neck, trapping him in a hug. Not that he minded.
"We will have a daughter and a son Ma Norm." You say as tears pricked at your eyes.
All the battling, all the blood, carnage, and death you never thought that it would end but here you sitting with your lover, your Norm someone of Sky people origin with a growing family, it was all coming together.
It was a rough pregnancy, you weren't going to lie. Morning sickness all the time, you couldn't eat anything sweet even the smell of sweet fruit or candy made you want to vomit. And for some reason you wanted your dinner extra spicy every night. And your emotions were a disarray when you woke up and he had his back turned to you, even if you were the one who turned over at night, waterworks. He made a joke about naming your guy's son Yoda after some creature in a sky people movie, he had to sleep on Jake and Neytiri's floor for three nights and he had kid feet all up in his face.
And the birth wasn't easy either.
The pain of one of their heads getting ready to crown shot through you as you screamed head thewing back as you screamed. "Get them out of me!" You screamed at everyone, some of the healers that helped Mo'at who sat in front of you looked terrified as they handed the Tsahik her supplies.
"Okay one hard push and then breath." Mo'at instructed and you only shook your head, closing your eyes and gripping Norm. "Now!" Mo'at explained. Your other hand held onto a healer who looked like he wanted to cry, clenching your jaw you pushed as hard as you could. You breathe and Norm comforts you by kissing the top of your sweaty head.
"Push " and push you did. Pushing as hard as you could you screamed in pain. "Ah- Norm.." you said pushing and he never thought he would hear what you were about to say. "You kalweyaveng you did this to me, ah eywa- great mother- I'm going to k..kill you." You screamed before pushing once more and one of them was out now. The sound of baby squalling surrounded the birthing tent.
Giving the baby to Norm, "It is the girl." She said before ducking in front of you as you begin to push more and look up at Norm who stared in awe at his daughter even though she was covered in placenta and blood she was most beautiful, but your son he was stubborn not wanting to come out, you kept pushing and pushing and then giving one more hard push his head finally popped out. His cry was much softer than his sister who had finally calmed down in her fathers arm.
Norm crouched next to you as you held your son and he held your daughter. They were truly the most perfect things you've ever seen and they were all yours.
"Let's name them," he paused for a moment before the perfect names came to mind. "Tsawke and Oare." Norm said and you smiled at him. "Yes, you shall be our Tsawke." You cooed to your daughter who had her tongue out of her mouth and stared at her father. And then you look at your son who was asleep. "And you shall be our Oare."

Skeleton had to go under anesthesia. When he wakes up, completely shoot, he asks to the guy next to him who he is and what's he's doing in his room. That's his brother lol. Skeleton is shocked to learn he has a brother. Reaction?
Undertale Sans - He can't stop laughing at Papyrus' expression. Poor guy is clearly not himself at the moment, and Sans is 100% going to take advantage of the situation. He's going to make him believe the most stupidest things ever, like the fact that if he touches the button above his head, the whole room is going to explode, which makes him cry in panic. The only problem with that is that Papyrus remembers the whole thing perfectly afterward lol. Sans is going to wake up in a room full of traps the next day.
Undertale Papyrus - ???? Papyrus tries not to panic as his brother actually doesn't recognize him for real. He calls a doctor, who assures him it's normal and that he's just very tired right now and not thinking clearly. But still! He doesn't even remember he has a brother??? Papyrus doesn't like that very much. He's going to be tense until Sans starts to feel better.
Underswap Sans - Honey is just staring at him, frowning. Blue can't hold it together for more than ten seconds before breaking down, laughing hysterically. Poor Honey is so confused about what's going on, having no idea what's going on. Blue is so going to record him saying weird things and he's going to show it to all of his friends. Honey doesn't like it and will try all he can to escape the crazy skeleton in his room. Please someone helps him.
Underswap Papyrus - Blue is stubborn and will get mad at Honey for pretending to be his brother when he's sure he doesn't have any brother and threatens to fight with him. He then summons the most pathetic attacks Honey has ever seen to "defeat him". The bone is so tiny it's barely visible. It does no damage either. Blue grumbles and says that it's not over and that he'll see when he can get out of bed. At this point, Honey is just dying with laughter in a corner. Blue doesn't want to talk about any of this once he has a clear head lol. It never happened.
Underfell Sans - Uh... Red is not sure what to do about this. Edge is getting defensive and growling at him like a wild animal, asking him to decline his identity again and again. Red assures him he's his brother but Edge refuses to hear it and he's getting mad Red is lying to him. Red is just upset after some time and screams at him to go to hell, so pissed off. Edge is so confused when he remembers his brother only to find out he's pouting in a corner of the room, mad at him. The hell happened?
Underfell Papyrus - That's so embarrassing. Red assures him he has no brother, and then starts to flirt with him, in front of Undyne and Alphys, who are dying with laughter on the floor. It's not funny! He's really concerned. Are you sure they didn't take his brain off during the anesthesia or something? When Red remembers, he is devastated. Of course, Undyne recorded him, because she had too. Edge can't look him in the eyes. Alphys is writing the worst fanfiction ever in a corner. Please, make him a favor and send him back to sleep. He doesn't want to wake up before another century. He's begging you.
Horrortale Sans - Oak is already very uncomfortable because it's a hospital and he hates hospitals with all he has, but it gets even worse when his brother wakes up and actually doesn't remember him. Oak thinks he's playing at first, but then he realizes he's not and he's going full panic mode lol. Oak is ready to tear the hospital apart to understand what's going on. He's going to scare the doctors until one of them explains what they did to his brother. One of them explains he's just too tired to be coherent. Oh. That's fine then. He's going back to his brother's room and patiently waits for Willow to be fine again. No doctors want to get near him again however.
Horrortale Papyrus - He was a bit nervous when he saw Oak awaken, mainly because he had to sedate him to come to the hospital in the first place. When Oak wakes up, he's completely lost, his memory all fuzzy and he can't remember how he ended there. Then he looks at his brother and tenses, his pupils shrieking as he gets uncomfortable. Willow tries to comfort him, that's when Oak bites him and then growls angrily, mad he's at the hospital. Willow doesn't question it and just let him be lol. That's Oak, who knows what's going on with him sometimes. Eventually, he will come around. He's still mad Willow dragged him to the hospital though.
Swapfell Sans - Nox didn't expect Rus to wake up finding his face hilarious. He can't stop giggling, pointing at Nox's face and trying to put his fingers in his eye sockets. Nox is not sure if he should be angry, concerned, or offended. Probably a mix of that. The problem is that Rus is very insistent and won't leave him alone, lunging at him to try and stick his hands in his sockets, until he manages to. Nox just sighs. This is going to be a long day.
Swapfell Papyrus - "What you're looking at asshole?" "bro???" "Who send you here? You think you can kill me because I can't get up?!" "bro, seriously, calm down" "I can kill you from my bed, just so you know! I'm very dangerous!" "yeah yeah..." "I swear! I knocked an entire army once! All by myself! Lower your eyes! I'm the great general of the Royal Guard and the Queen's heir! Decline your identity!" Nox won't stop threatening him for four hours, but since his magic is down right now he can't really do anything except trying to be mean to make him flee. Once he has his mind clear, Nox will pretend nothing happened and that anything Rus is saying is a lie lol.
Fellswap Gold Sans - Coffee is having a panic attack, screaming after his brother. Wine stands up to comfort him, but then Coffee pushes him away and screams after Wine for help, looking more and more distressed seeing the skeleton in his room, staring at him in disbelief. Wine is not sure what to do honestly. So, uh, he does the only thing he's good at. He picks up a lamp and knocks his brother out lmao. The nurses are quite in shock when he tells them he put his brother back to sleep because he was too weird xD
Fellswap Gold Papyrus - Wine decided he would get out of the hospital and Coffee is just an annoyance holding him back. So he summons a blaster in the middle of the corridor and blasts his brother, who can barely hide back in the room. Uh... Uh oh. Coffee is not sure how anyone is going to be able to stop him honestly. He looks pretty determined. Thankfully, Wine walks three meters before collapsing out of exhaustion on the floor, so it's fine. He's not happy, but the nurses put him back on morphine to keep him asleep while he recovers lol.
