     A rare nostalgia, such a hardly missed feeling. Pale hand guided along marble railing as he ascended the stairs. There were no such fancy structures in his new home...and he was glad. He felt a relief that he didn’t think he would, either...being here. Attending this event had caused such an anxiety beforehand, even through the constant reassurance from his husband--who was not allowed to accompany him.

               He didn’t want to reminded.

     There were whispers, oh yes, he heard them. Mostly in low feminine tones...gossip. Why he was there alone, pondering who he was. He continued on, best not to draw too much attention to himself, lest one of his siblings be amongst the crowd.

     Entering the main door, the soft tune of the piano was heard and he let out a quiet sigh. Perhaps he’d enjoy himself more if Suzaku--

     He had to try. His husband would be saddened to hear he had a horrible time.

     For now, he tried to stick himself near the wall, using the back of his knuckles brushing the wall, resting so casually at his side. He didn’t want to give others here any reason to believe he couldn’t see. Just concentrate, learn the surroundings...like he usually did.

“I don’t /always/ blush like a virgin,” he grumbled. “It’s just someone has to be a little bit embarrassed and between the two of us, that usually ends up being me.”

After all, he loved Hikaru, but Hikaru was...well....very embarrassing at times.

“It’s a thing called ‘self-awareness’. You might want to try it once in a while, Hika~”

Hikaru smiled slightly as he ran his hand along Kaoru’s arm. “Nooo….that’s what I have you for my love.” Hikaru said as he turned to face Kaoru and grinned as he dropped his hand down under the water to lightly stroke his twin’s groin. “Now enough serious talk, I believe I promised you a pampering Kao…make you more self-aware of certain parts of your body.”

“Zange!” Dianne cried out, instantly using the book as a sort of cover for her chest area. What was he doing here?! HOW DID HE GET IN!?-

“How did you- I thought I-” She was panicking for a long, long moment, trying to figure it out before realizing that it didn’t matter. It never mattered with Zange.

“Wha is the emergency that required you to break into my room?”

@wxrld-xf-cxts | Naruto: “ i need your help. ”

“With what?” Sasuke narrowed his eyes. Out of everyone in Naruto’s cabinet and close circle, he felt like he would be the last one to ask for anything that simple, which left this graven feeling something was terribly wrong.

@wxrld-xf-cxts​ from X~

“....No...” He murmured, though he leaned into the soothing touch all the same, eyes closing after a moment as a deep, rumbling sound almost akin to a purr left him. If anyone else had even tried to touch him they would have lost a hand.��

“....I don’t like those bastards you’ve been hanging around with...” He grunted, arms crossed over his chest as he spoke.

Atem had been doing an amazing job of keeping away from everyone. He hated it...seeing the people he knew and cared for living their lives while he hid himself away, but until he knew more about Malice, he couldn’t risk hurting those people, so Atem generally kept himself out of sight.  Unfortunately, today was a day of necessity. Atem HAD to go to the supermarket, and there was no delivery slots available, so he was left to his own devices. He wanted this over with quickly. He was too close to the center of town where he had the best chance of being caught. So he quickly grabbed the fruit and everything he needed and headed back to his flat.  On the way though he heard a laugh. A laugh he hadn’t heard in years. He stopped dead in his tracks. “Aibou...” He would know that laugh anywhere. He shouldn’t look. It would be too much, but Atem was never really good at doing the right thing when it came to Yugi, and this time was no different. So he peered around the corner trying his best to not be seen but too weak to not look.

Cue Peanut instantly hiding inside his coils, slowly peeking back over with a slight blink. Looks like they both spooked each other...

“ I WASN’T volunteering !!”

@wxrld-xf-cxts​: Haru is casually going to come up and hug Yuki's arm.

     Yuki always felt a little more at ease whenever Haru was around...Now was no different. He just sort of allowed himself to lean against him so very casually, letting him keep a hold of his arm.

     "Do you need anything, Haru?"

Thirteen people had gone missing in less than that many days. Thirteen. Mostly civilians, a few shinobi who were on patrol, a few on solo missions, all gone. A curfew had been inacted, patrols doubled. Nothing seemed to fix it. So of course the anbu had been scrambled to search, and Kakashi was on the trail.

There was a strange scent in the air. Burning corpse... and incense? Some kind of wood. He followed the smell apprehensively finally finding a clearing in the woods. There appeared to be a man, hopefully just one, some weird religious shit, a fire, bodies arranged in a strange pattern. What the fuck did he stumble on?

Kyou raised his head at the sound of the other’s voice, watching him with a wide yawn as Yuki sat down beside him. “Sure, I guess I don’t mind some company for a change. Why the relaxed attitude all of a sudden?” He meowed in response, shaking his head a little when a fly landed on his ear. 

“I noticed you haven’t been hanging out with Tohru much lately, what’s up with that? She piss ya off or somethin’?”

She could tell that he was happy, and she didn’t quite want to ruin the moment for him, so her gaze went over towards the kitchen.

They needed an outside opinion, and he seemed as if he would be someone Dianne confided in, given their personalities.

And so, she kept herself in the corner of the door for a moment, averting her gaze before looking back over towards him. “Keiichiro... Can I get your opinion on something?”

With asking that, she stepped into the room, letting the kitchen door flap closed. “It’s about Dianne... I’m worried...” Really worried...

@wxrld-xf-cxts​ Found Puma~!

It had been a good few weeks since Puma had first been introduced to the Host Club and while he patiently put up with everyone’s shenanigans, most of his time was spent staring silently out the window towards the city beyond. 

Even when the sun had set, he remained silent, eyes gazing out the window almost like he was looking for something, even as the Hitachiin twins entertained their final guests for the night while using his back as a seat. 

@wxrld-xf-cxts | Itachi: 

 "Sasuke, welcome home.“ And…she made…a lot of food. Clearly she’s been stress cooking again. "I made dinner.” Not even their Mother could stop her when she got in these moods.

With just enough time before the sun vanished from the horizon, Sasuke made it home from his patrol. Worn thin, exhausted in the eyes, he couldn’t wait to step through the door and trudge straight up to his room.

Instead, he was greeted with the scent of something savory. This garlicy aromatic smell from the kitchen, fanning out throughout the Uchiha home with tasty allure. Sasuke was confused by this, something within him feeling like something was off... wasn’t quite sure what it was, but he brushed off this feeling whenever he saw Itachi standing at the stovetop, fixing their evening meal.

“Oh, what spurred on... all of this?” he rubbed his eye, fighting back a yawn as he spoke. “Are we having guests?”

@wxrld-xf-cxts​ {Plotted Starter~}

“..The fuck?” 

Farouk had been walking home from work when he’d spotted someone lying face-down in one of the nearby alleyways. As he grew closer, a familiar head of tri-colored hair came into view, sparking both his curiosity and his irritation at the same time. 

Walking over, he cocked his head and raised a brow. 

“What the fuck is the pharaoh doing here...” He wondered, reaching a cautious foot out to poke at the aforementioned person, not sure what exactly to do. 

Obsessed Idiots

@wxrld-xf-cxts for Kaiba 

Sometimes late at night, when he KNEW all his friends were asleep, Atem would get brave and wander more into town than he ever would dare during the daylight hours. Sometimes Atem sought nostalgia. He missed his old life. Not Egypt. It would be hard for him to miss something where he never felt like he belonged. No, he meant his time with Yugi and the others. That was something he missed fiercely. Even the small things before everything got so out of hand they didn’t have time for them anymore, like going to arcade. Or going to get a burger. The movies. Small things like that. Atem hadn’t gotten to experience many of them, but what he did made him long for more.  Then again, those were simpler times weren’t they?  Atem found himself tonight wandering into down town. The tree lined streets and wide intersections somewhat eerie in the quiet of the middle of the night, pushing it’s way quickly towards morning. He turned a corner and stopped. Kaiba Corp loomed in the distance, and against Atem’s better judgement, he started towards the building.  This was one of the hardest things for him. Aside from Yugi. Kaiba had been a constant in his life almost from the moment he had emerged from the puzzle. Kaiba who saw him for him before anyone else. Also the idiot who decided to use unprecedented magic to travel to the damn afterlife to demand a duel.  Atem growled and his hands curled into fists at his side. “Obsessed idiot.” He muttered, but still his feet carried him onward until he was standing staring up at the building. He had been worried ever since Seto had disappeared from the afterlife so suddenly. Of course he knew it was dangerous. Mahad had told him such. Atem had immediately want to reach out to Kaiba, but Malice made that impossible. He made certain Kaiba was alive and then kept his distance.  “Alive if not well.” Atem murmured still looking up at the looming skyscraper that was Kaiba Corp. “I suppose that’s all I can ask for.”
