Lovers' Lookout (Malleus x GN!Reader)

“How does one choose?” Malleus thought to himself, chin held by his thumb and forefinger. His gaze was set upon the menu before him - the one listing all the ice cream flavors available, to be exact. They took up the whole half of the board, each one just as good as the other. The fae had stood there for a while now, perplexed on how to choose just one. It was too bad they didn’t have a way to sample every one.

“Do you have a favorite flavor?” you asked, neck craned up to look at him.

“I have a few,” he replied. “I wish to try something new, however.”

“Well, which one looks most interesting?”

“All of them.” Well, that sure helped, didn’t it. “There are some I have not heard of till now, such as caf…caf-ee..”

“Café au lait?”

“Yes, that one.” He looked at you as though you held all the knowledge in the world. “What is it?”

“It’s a type of coffee,” you said. “It’s pretty good! I think you’d like it.”

“Hm,” Malleus contemplated some more, then pointed down at one of the ice cream tubs behind the glass counter. “And what is that?”

“Mmn…” You looked up at the menu to try and figure that out yourself. “Cotton candy, I think.” You pointed to the two adjacent to it. “I think those two are blue moon and banana split.”

“Blue moon?” Malleus tilted his head in question - he looked almost like a cat.

You shrugged your shoulders, “I don’t know why they call it that. It’s pretty good though; Cater had me try it a little while ago.”

Malleus nodded, once again in contemplation. He seemed to grow more frustrated by the minute. He couldn’t choose just one! He’d suggested buying one of each, but you reminded him what happened the last time he did that: brain freeze central. At least Lilia got a good laugh out of it. Just then, an idea popped into your head. You tugged on the sleeve of Malleus’s bodysuit to get his attention.

“Would you like me to choose for you?”

Those chartreuse eyes sparkled as though out of your mouth came the most brilliant idea in the world. “You can do that?”

You laughed at his question. “Yes! It’s not like they’ll get mad if I do.”

A small pout formed on the dragon’s lips as he mumbled to himself. “As though such a scolding would frighten me.” You knew it wouldn’t - but it’d probably make him feel like the size of an ant. That pout turned into a smile as he nodded. “I trust in your choice, Child of Man.”

Your smile widened as he gave his trust to you, as he often did. You gave his wrist a small squeeze before you released it and walked up to the man at the counter. You didn’t have to think much - you knew exactly what flavor to get. Once you handed the man your madol, you stepped back to let him work. You peered up to see Malleus had yet another pout on his face. “I told you I would pay for them,” he said.

“I know.” You gave his arm a small pat. “But you always buy stuff for me; I want to get you things when I can.”

You knew the notion was silly - Malleus had more money than you could dream. Even so, you loved to get him little things every now and again, whatever you could afford. It wasn’t just because you wanted to, but because you loved the expressions he wore whenever you came to him with those little presents and treats. He always looked like a kid on Christmas for how excited he was! What you didn’t see, however, was the soft look in his eyes when you walked back to get your ice cream. Would you ever know how much he adored you…

You thanked the man at the counter before you walked back to Malleus. As you handed Malleus his milkshake (he’d wanted to try it instead of an ice cream cone), he eyed it curiously. “What kind did you get me?”

Nothing was given away as you grinned. “You’ll just have to try it and find out!” Before he could, you took his wrist gently and began to pull him along with you. “Let’s sit outside - it’s so pretty out!”

“Yes,” Malleus’s gaze was centered on you as he spoke, “it certainly is.”

That soft gaze, once again, was unnoticed by you as you opened the door out onto the parlor’s shaded patio. You sat yourselves at a small table in the corner, which overlooked the beach below. It was such a wonderful day outside - it wasn’t too hot, and there was a constant cool breeze. The sound of the waves crashing onto shore in the distance filled your ears, and the smell of the salty sea mixed with that of the creamy treat before you. Your eyes fixed on Malleus as he adjusted himself in his chair. It was still a little odd to see him in such casual beach attire: a black bodysuit hugged his torso, while below he wore black swim trunks with green highlights and a pair of black sandals. Aside from the horns atop his head and the slits of his pupils, he appeared like any normal man at the beach.

You watched as he brought the straw of his milkshake to his lips. He sucked in a small bit of the ice cream that came up the thin tube; to your delight, his eyes widened in surprise as a wide smile crossed his lips. “This is wonderful!” His gaze settled on you, once again resembling an excited child. “What is it?”

“[Favorite flavor]!” His smile was contagious, for you soon found yourself grinning. “It’s my usual go-to. I’m so happy you like it!”

As you sipped your own milkshake and relished the cream on your tongue, Malleus let out a soft chuckle. “Thus why I said I place my complete trust in your decisions.” He leaned forward, arms folded in front of him on the table. He looked so casual like this…you could almost forget he was a prince. “You never cease to amaze me, Child of Man~”

His gaze was intense - you couldn’t help but shy away as your cheeks reddened. Malleus did not tease you for it, simply releasing another chuckle before he, too, took another sip of his milkshake. Then he took another, and another…and another. You quickly swallowed your own gulp as you protested, “Malleus, don’t drink it so fast! You’ll get another brain freeze!”

Immediately, Malleus ceased his persistent slurping. His eyes went wide as he stalled in the action, as though Lilia’s laughs from the past incident echoed in his head. He swallowed down the gulp in his mouth and let out a deep exhale, then sat down the styrofoam cup on the table. “I apologize, I…got too carried away by the taste, I suppose.”

You giggled, “It’s okay, Mal.” You reached out and took his hand from across the table. The shining green pools that were his eyes locked with yours as you spoke to him softly. “You were just excited, that’s all. There’s no shame in that - I think it’s cute.”

There was no magic in the world that could hide the pink that ghosted Malleus’s pale cheeks. His pupils dilated like a cat’s would, which only amplified his adorableness. Soon, he smiled from ear to ear and gave your hand a gentle squeeze. His voice held all the affection in the world for you. “Thank you, [Y/n].” Malleus didn’t speak your name too often…it was nice to hear it again. His eyes narrowed in amusement as he added one other thought, “I find you just as endearing, if not more~”

It was your turn to blush. A deep chuckle rumbled in his chest as he watched you shy away from his gaze and take another sip of your milkshake. As you leaned back in your chair, so did he; as your hands parted, Malleus replaced the contact by brushing his foot with yours. The next few minutes were filled with idle chatter, mostly about what the two of you should do next. Before a decision could be made, there came a loud voice somewhere in the distance - it made you and Malleus abruptly turn your heads in that direction.

“Wakasama!!”

Oh Seven, here he comes! Both you and Malleus’s hearts sunk at the thought of Sebek finding you, Silver likely in tow. Malleus turned to you with panicked eyes, as though to ask you for another idea. Sadly, you had none. There was nowhere to hide; you couldn’t run either, as the only way to was in Sebek’s direction. You didn’t want your time alone with Malleus to end so soon - you both spent long enough trying to get away!

In a flash, Malleus bolted up from his chair. It slammed against the railing of the patio as he stepped around the table and over to you. Suddenly, his milkshake was shoved into your arms. You clutched both of yours as you looked up at Malleus for an answer as to what he was doing. “Hold tight to the milkshakes,” he said. A yelp left your lips as he lifted you out of the chair and into his arms, grip on you firm yet gentle. “If you get scared, close your eyes; know I will not drop you.”

Before you could ask anything, Malleus jumped clear over the patio. You forgot how high he could jump. A scream tugged at your throat, but you kept it in for fear of Sebek hearing you. As gravity set in and you both began to fall to the ground far below, you did as Malleus said and closed your eyes. For a moment, you were in a freefall. The wind licked at your skin, whipped your hair; you gripped the drinks tightly, but not too strong for fear of the styrofoam giving way. The moment Malleus’s feet hit the ground, he took off running into the brush.

When you opened your eyes again, it was as though you were in a car. Palm trees passed by you in a flash, vision blurry as Malleus raced to find a spot to hide. Finally, after a few minutes of searching, he’d found it. You didn’t quite know where you were; you seemed to be somewhere in the hills, for how far away the waves were now. How fast had Malleus been going?! That question quickly fluttered out of your mind as you took in the view before you. It was no short of breathtaking.

The sea glittered like a gemstone in the sunlight; the beach resembled a bed of silken gold; the little figures of people in the town below bustled about like ants on parade. The scene was framed by the vegetation around you, little trees and large bushes of different types. Malleus gently knelt down onto the grassy hill that overlooked the area and sat you beside him, just as another cool breeze blew.

“It will take some time for anyone to find us here.” He gently took his milkshake from your hand and got comfortable on the grass. “At least, I hope so.”

At first, words were lost to you. Your eyes still took in the view, breath still thoroughly stolen from you. Malleus glanced down at you, then out at the world beyond your hiding spot, then back at you again. A triumphant smirk played on his lips, “I trust this spot is to your liking?”

“It’s…it’s beautiful,” you breathed out. You pried your gaze from the outlook to focus on him. “Have you been to this spot before?”

“I have not.” He sipped his milkshake before he continued, “I simply came upon it while we ran; I thought it was out of the way enough, and that it would please you.”

You smiled and nodded. “It does.” You giggled as you thought about the escape you two just made. “Just…next time, if you can, warn me before you go off sprinting one hundred miles an hour.”

Malleus let out a small laugh. “If time should present, rest assured that I will.”

The two of you sat in silence for a short while, simply taking in the view as you enjoyed each other's company. Without thinking, you scooted closer to Malleus and leaned your head against his bicep. His eyes widened and he glanced over at you, just as you glanced up at him. Your smile, the twinkle of your eye, how the sun hit your skin through the shaded natural overlook…had his heart ever beat so fast?

“Thank you for spending the day with me, Malleus. I know we’ll spend more time together in the future, but…this. I’ll never forget this.”

Malleus felt his heart swell; it felt as though his soul would ascend from his body and offer itself to you. Should you request it, he would hand over both happily, for you already held them in the palm of your hand. He took that palm as he smiled and gave your hand a loving squeeze. “Nor will I, [Y/n].”

There was so much more he wanted to say, but for now he kept it to himself. He could tell you another day - for now, he simply sat with you on that grassy hill, in your secret hideaway, and basked in the moment. The two of you were unaware of the crimson eyes that watched you, high above in one of the trees, knees bent in a crouch as to keep himself from being seen. It wasn’t hard to track the two of you down - he’d spotted you both on the patio minutes before. As he lingered there, the man smiled, fangs poking out as he let out the quietest chuckle of delight. Adorable, the both of you. Ah, how wonderful the throes of young love could be.

Lilia quietly climbed out of the tree and left the two of you alone to bask in that unspoken love.

I am itching to start another drawing series, because it makes it easier to figure out what to draw. This time I want to draw bunch of my ladies in fabulous dresses while also taking their personal style into consideration. I'm also going to pair them up for the images based on their connection; if they're related, girlfriends, friends, or have something else in common. Miriam & Iris are friends and coworkers for example.

Figuring out Miriam's outfit was kinda tricky, given I just made this redesign for her and haven't drawn her since, so I wasn't entirely sure what her style would be yet. In the end I went with somewhat similar vibe to Iris, just with her favorite color (green) and some extra nature-themed accessories as I felt it fit her. (Her casual day-to-day wear has more bohemic vibe I think?)

BG is just abstract and has a photo-like frame, because I had no other ideas lol

Guys (HAHAHHAHAHA OH MY. GOOOOOOOOOGGOGOD GUY. LIKE FROM *GETS TORN APART BY A MECHANICAL HOUND*) if I go completely off my rocker and start shitting out scythe content like as in from the book arc of a scythe DONT PANIC I’m still into f451 it’s just that my school’s cruel and unjust hand is FORCING me to move on from my dear late wife also known as my current hyperfixation FAHRENHEIT 451 which to be clear I am NOT READY TO DO but because of HORRIBLE and UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES I will most likely be taking to the LITTLE FREE SPEECH I HAVE and unloading all of my SCYTHE RELATED PSYCHOLOGICAL TURMOIL into the WILDLANDS OF MY SHITTY ACCOUNT. (they’re making me draw something for scythe, but I’m still into f451) so if you see me scytheposting it’s because. It’s because I HAAAAVE TO. I HAVETOI HAVETO I HAVETOIHAVTEOTHAVTEOHAVTEOHAVETO NO CHOICE IN THIS MATTER I HAVE TO I

#not that I don’t like scythe btw I just think that’s Fahrenheit 451 is BETTER. and don’t lecture me I read the entire SERIES okay like the p #plot is fine I just think that f451’s writing holds a lot more artistic merit #flowery and poetic or soem shit. love that bro #scythe is a bit lacking on the metaphors imo #again I LOVE BOTH OK but Ray Bradbury writing style 🔛🔝#stinkygirldays pee you!!!!!!! 😡#unshowered #this is soooooooooooooo #hashtag POOPY!#Mildred save me. pour a lethal dosage down into my gullet and hold my hand tight as the poison rots my liver and tears my body apart #clutch my teary face into meeting the pallidity of yours and speak to me of those dazzling parlor walls and that happy dancing family #maybe together in the afterlife we’ll meet that picture perfect life you’ve always dreamt of #or maybe we’ll meet in a thicket of greedy flickering flames #a just punishment for turning our backs on those who burned in the waking world. you and I #the same oxygen that gave us life was just as quick to take it. but we were dumb. we were ignorant #and so we too shall burn #SAVE ME MILDRED. SSAAAAVE MEEEEEE #I don’t wanna dfraw 😢💔

Just reading your brilliant Armistice series again, do you think Harry realises just what it means that Ginny is a Parlor girl? That it’s not just some social group in Slytherin but so much more? And will it play a part in the next story? Love love love your writing, best wishes to you xx

I think during the Armistice Series he starts to get a clearer picture--he's very clear that it isn't just a social club. But I doubt he will ever truly get it, and that's okay. It isn't his to understand, only for him to understand how much it means to Ginny.

Thanks!

Rainbow ladies 2: Marci (A Warlock)

Drawing this was super difficult, for a couple of reasons: 1. Marci is apparently hard to draw for some random ass reason, and 2. orange is a color I find tricky to use/theme things around, given it very easily turns into a red, or a brown. This is honestly more browns and reds than orange themed....OTL

The OG Kouka one I made for this color came out better in regards to the color theme imo. However, this piece does fit better in the series style that the Red piece with Mariella set up for me though.

As for the BG pattern; it's a combination of the symbol of the group she used to work under the member of, and the moth like thing peeking from within them is the logo of her favorite in-world band, whose member she's even friends with. (the logo is also on her shirt)

(It's kind of symbolic of how her past job still kind of has a major effect on her even in her private life and shadows a lot of things in ways she's not exactly happy with.)

Book Review: "Slice of Murder" by Rosie A. Point

It’s time for another book review! For book 24 of my reading challenge, we’re returning to the world of cozy mysteries just in time for the autumn season with Rosie A. Point’s pizza-themed bestseller Slice of Murder, the first book in her Pizza Parlor Mystery series. Was this a deliciously fun read that made made want to reach for seconds from this series or did it leave me feeling unsatisfied,…
