If you’re still looking for a prompt to write, I’d love to read your take on Kalego finding out iruma is human. Do you think he already knows? If not, what event would initiate that conversation and what would happen after the fact. I’d love to see Balam respond to the whole thing too (he’s the best & I’m not sure how Kalego would feel about him having known about it the whole time).
Also, I remember a post about iruma giving teachers cards for mother’s/father’s day and I would absolutely adore reading a fic about that. Iruma deserves the world 😭
Anyway, just wanted to say I love your writing and hope you have a great weekend!
Anon thank you, and i agree iruma does deserve the world! Kalego here doesn't know iruma's secret, but that’s about to change >:3
He's wHAT?!
"-and then he had the audacity to look me in the eye, and ask me what having wings feel like? He then panicked and kept saying he meant feather wings but then he just ran out of my offiice! I swear sometimes it's like he's not even a demon!" Kalego let out a sigh before drinking the tea in his hand.
He really enjoys Friday evenings with Shichirou, the only demon he's ever allowed himself to be so close to. His younger self was so cagey about this, but now Kalego not only appreciates the deep relationship he developed with Shichi, he also prides himself in the fact that he knows Shichirou better than most
Which is how he knows that Shichirou is hiding something.
"Hmm, does the patterns on your office's floor intrigue you that much, Shichi?" The demon in question jumps, almost spilling his tea all over him
"Wh-what?! No I'm just! mulling over how weird this interaction with iruma is!" He says, which is partially true. Shichirou was most certainly thinking about something in Kalego’s rant
Thinking about how to steer Kalego’s attention from it
"Ma-maybe I should answer his question! After all I do have feathers so-"
"What is it?" And Shichirou knows what Kalego is talking about. He's never been good at lying to Kalego. Everyone else? As easy as breathing, but to Kalego? Never did he try hiding something that Kalego didn't find out about
So he stays silent, averting Kalego’s eyes because he knows if he looked into them he won't be staying silent much longer
But it's just so hard when Kalego keeps staring at him! He could literally feel the suspicious, calculating gaze Kalego is throwing him!
"..is it about Iruma’s wings?" He asks. It is the last thing he talked about before Shichirou grew quiet
"Ah, y-yes! Something like that" ah, so it’s not about his wings, but his wings are related?
Kalego kept staring at Shichirou, watching as his hands fidgeted with the cup of tea he's holding. What else did he say? What could've made Shichirou grow so quiet-!
"...Shichirou," his hands fidgeted faster as he looked into Kalego’s eyes. Kalego could see the sweat pouring down as he opened his mouth to confirm his suspicion
"Is Iruma not a demon?" Shichi flinched, letting go of the cup in his surprise.
So, Iruma is not a demon. That was a headache
A thought popped into his mind that made Kalego feel so so tired. But that's crazy! There's no way the chairman would- oh who's he kidding, the chairman absolutely would
"Shichirou is the chairman housing a deity?" He asked, exasperation written into his very soul from the question alone
"Wh-what?! Come on, the chairman isn't that crazy!"
"But he is housing something that's not demon" and Shichi didn't deny that
"Shichi, what is Iruma?"
"..it's not my secret to share" and that broke the last of Kalego’s patience. This isn’t the first time Shichi said those words, and usually Kalego would respect that response and would steer things away from whatever secret Shichi is keeping
But not this time. Not when it comes to his students, not when it comes to Iruma
"Shichirou, Iruma is my kid" he said with so many emotions he didn't know he'd feel, and by the look on Shichi's face, neither did he
"My job as his teacher is to provide him with the right tools to succeed. My job as his familiar is to protect him from anything that might pose as a danger to him. This information that you're withholding from me is detrimental to how much I can do for him
"Shichi, I understand that you want to protect his secret, but there are some things that I need to know. The nature of Iruma is one of those things. Please tell me so I know how to help him survive" Shichirou looked into Kalego’s eyes and
He's right. Kalego is his teacher and his familiar. He's the one who spends the most time with Iruma, and there’s only so much Shichirou could do without his fre-friend's help
But
"You will not hurt him" confusion appeared on Kalego’s face before it turned serious again
"I won't"
This is a child's life they're talking about
"You will not demand he leaves"
This is not a secret to be shared with any demon
"I won't"
And Shichi truly trusted Kalego with his life
"Swear on your family's name"
But he doesn’t trust the Naberius clan
"I swear on my family's name, on the name Naberius, that I shall not put Iruma Suzuki in harm's path, nor shall I banish him for his nature"
Kalego didn't understand why Shichi would go to such lengths, but he trusts Shichi. He trusts that Shichi won't make him swear on something small.
Whatever Iruma’s origin may be, Kalego swears that he won't discriminate against him in any way, shape or form, even if he turns out to be of holy origins
Shichirou took a deep breath in, content that his friend did not question his demands and followed through
"Well, not even Iruma’s closest companions know of this-although he does plan on telling them- but Iruma is actually a human" he laid back as he said it, and watched Kalego’s face for anything that might appear on it
He's ready for anything. Hatred, disgust, acceptance, absolute indifference, but the reaction he got is something that made him truly relax. There's no way Kalego will do anything stupid when he gets that look on him
The look of absolute exasperation. A look that just screams
"Of course he's a human. Of fucking course" yep, that's a Kalego who still likes Iruma like his own son
Kalego let out a deep, bone shattering sigh before getting up
"Where are you going?" Shichirou said as he poured himself more tea. This conversation was nerve-wracking, but he's glad it's over now
"Iruma stays late at school to help the gardeners. I need to have a talk with him"
"Mhmm, should I wait for you or head home first?"
"Wait. I'm just gonna inform him that I know, anything else will be after the weekend I am too tired to deal with this train wreck now" Shichirou hummed as he gulped down the tea, completely regretting his choice because this tea is cold
Kalego stopped at the doorway. There is something that's bothering him about this conversation, but he's not sure if now's the right time
But, when else will he get the chance to ask?
"Why...did you not tell me from the start? That it's Iruma’s secret?"
"Because you respect me too much, Kalego" he put down the cup of cold tea, intent on making a new batch once Kalego goes out the door
"You respect me too much, and you would have respected my wishes. You wouldn't have brought this up again, and even if you figured it out you wouldn't have come to me to confirm whether what you believe is true. You would've simply let it go because I asked you to
"But I wasn't sure whether I wanted to keep this a secret from you or not. I knew that if I told you that, I'd never get another opening to tell you. And I was afraid that you'd find out when it's too late"
Kalego, content with the answer he got, continued on his way to the sakura garden. Shichirou got up and took his teapot to the counter to make more hot tea.
He was also afraid.
Afraid that he made the wrong choice, telling Kalego instead of letting him ask Iruma himself. Afraid that Iruma would hate him for sharing his secret. Afraid that he'll go back to being the creepy teacher that no student likes.
but there's no need to guilt Kalego like that now. This is something that Shichirou will have to talk with Iruma about later, and Shichirou is not going to trouble his friend just because he was worried about his kid
.
.
.
Wait, did Kalego say that Iruma’s his kid?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bonus/another way i wanted to try
Balam:he's a human
Kalego:...
Kalego: shichi he's trolling you
Balam:..you really think iruma is capable of trolling people?
Kalego: my mistake
Kalego: shichi the class is making him troll you
Balam: no!!
Kalego *going to the royal one classroom*: I'm gonna make them train so hard they'll be wishing they volunteered to be marbas's test subjects
Balam *visibly distressed*: nO!!!!!!
Welp, this was fun! Time to go finish that one fic i started when i was procrastinating on that other fic
@floraroxy im not sure whether you wer joking but guess what!
