I want time to be quiet. I want a week where thereâs nothing expected of me. I want some light snowfall. I want a home I can rearrange the furniture with every season. To bring friends over to be warmed by the fireplace. I want to paint the walls. I want to curl into you until I feel my hurt fall asleep. I want to pluck rosemary from the windowsill. I want to feel comfort again. I want so much space in my heart for the light to fill.
You want to know why Inigo Montoya remains such an iconic and beloved character even 35 years after the Princess Bride came out?
Itâs because heâs one of the few characters in fiction who has a story where he has dedicated his life to revenge, his whole motivation is about getting revengeâŚ.and he gets it! and then he isnât empty or despairing! he doesnât regret it! heâs totally satisfied!
because so many stories about revenge or rage are about characters âseeing the futility of their actionsâ or learning âtheir desire for revenge has only made them the monsters they hatedâ FUCK THAT.
Inigo Montoya kills the man who kills his father, is allowed to live in the narrative after and be happy about it and it is so satisfying. itâs fantastic. itâs iconic.
let more characters rage against the world, bring it down with bloodied hands, and let them be FUCKING RIGHT about it. Let them celebrate their success with sharp grins, and let them live happy, full lives where they always remain proud/fulfilled for what theyâve done
Summary: Shortly after Gajeel joined Fairytail, you two started to get close. Everyone knew there was something between you two, but you two would never admit it. Even after everything you guys have been through.
Possible Trigger Warning: Readerâs death.
@mylovelessnightmareâÂ
Your P.O.V.Â
Youâre walking in between Lily and Gajeel as you three head home from a job. It was one close to home so it was quick and easy.Â
âY/N, youâre awfully quiet for us just finishing a successful job.â Lily startsÂ
âOh! Sorry! Just admiring the city!â You laugh âI feel like we havenât been able to walk through town for a while without people gushing over us.âÂ
âEver since we won the Grand Magic Games.â Gajeel chucklesÂ
âEver since you and the team won. I had nothing to do with it.â You correctÂ
He slightly pushes you away, quickly pulling you back toward him. You look up to see the smile on his face, causing you to smile back.
You would never tell him, but Gajeel had your whole heart. Ever since the beginning, heâs been by your side, threatening anyone who tried to get near you. Thatâs just the kind of relationship you guys had. You didnât plan on telling him how you felt. Only one person knew, your best friend, Levy.
âPromise to never leave my side?â You say, nearing the guild hall
âNever. Not even the dragons or Zeref could tear you from my side.â Gajeel says, a smile of his face âShort stack.â
âMetal head.â You joke right back
âBoth of youâŚâ Lily laughs as he just shakes his head
You three were too busy laughing that you both didnât see the purple shadow flying toward you. Feeling the thing wrap around you, you let a scream of surprise out before feeling yourself getting pulled back, harshly. You reach to grab his hand, barely missing it as he tries to grab onto you.
âY/N!â Gajeel yells
âGajeel!â You hear a voice cheer âJust the man I wanted to see!â
âJoseâŚâ Gajeel growls âPut Y/N down!â
âWhere would the fun be in that? Itâs clear your heart has been softened by this fairy.â He taunts âWhat happened to hating the fairies? To being the fairy hunter you were?â
You struggle against the purple ghosts around you, trying to ignore the pain that was starting to flow through your body. You look at Gajeel and Lily, both of them prepared to fight.
âGajeelâŚâ you whisper
Gajeel letâs his guard down for one second, letting Jose land an attack, knocking him back into a tree. You watch as Jose throws Gajeel and Lily around, not giving them a chance to get up and try to fight.Â
âJoin me Gajeel! Come back to your glory days!â Jose bellows
You feel Jose as he laughs, starting to give into the pain that this spell was giving off. You felt another ghost wrap around your throat, starting to cut your air supply off.Â
âPut her down!â Gajeel growlsÂ
You try to reassure him, trying to give him a fake smile as you pull at the ghost around your neck. You guys werenât far from the guild, if you were to let Jose do this, they would eventually come and find Gajeel. Thatâs all you cared about.
You look back toward him, watching as Lily is in his bigger form, support Gajeel.
âGajeel⌠Lily⌠leave. Iâll be okay.â You gasp out, already feeling yourself start to lose consciousness
âY/N!â Gajeel yells again âKeep fighting!â
You knew this was the end, there was no way out. Jose was keeping Gajeel at a distance. Jose knew how to beat Gajeel, even if Gajeel has grown since his time in that guild.
âGajeel⌠I love you.â You manage to get out before your world went black
Gajeelâs P.O.V.
I watch in horror as Y/Nâs body goes limp in Joseâs shadow. Joseâs smirk on his face as he watches us.
âShouldâve never let your heart go soft.â Jose starts âIt was never a good look for you my boy.â
I watch as Jose sets Y/Nâa body down. My body frozen in my spot before I feel my body overwhelmed with anger.
Lily letâs go of me, my entire body turning to iron. Jose looks impressed before his smirk comes back, egging me on.
âGajeel, we should get back to the guild. Warn everyone else.â Lily tries to reason
âI didnât get to tell her. He deserves to pay for her life.â I growl
Lily shrinks, shaking his head. He flies towards Y/N, checking her pulse, a frown immediately seen on his face.
I glare back towards Jose, letting my body do itâs own thing. The only thing it knows how to do, fight.
Levyâs P.O.V.
I hear the doors burst open, Pantherlily standing at the door, frantically looking around.
âLily!â Happy starts
âWe need help. Jose⌠Jose, Gajeelâs old master. Attacked us on our way back. Gajeel needs help.â He says
âWhat about Y/N?â Lucy asks
Lily shakes his head, no words being able to form. Lucy looks at me as I connect the pieces. I stiffly nod, following Lily towards the sounds of fighting.
âIron Dragon Roar!â Gajeel yells
I see the scene come into sight, Gajeel standing in front of Y/Nâs body. Jose pinned to the tree, the metal holding him in one spot.
I slow down to a walk, watching as Gajeel goes back to normal, dropping to his knees as he turns toward Y/N. I see the tears streaming down his face as he slowly picks up her body, bringing it into his own.
âI love you too.â He says
~~ Time Skip ~~
I straighten out my dress, staring at the grave in front of me. The entire guild behind me, all of them crying over the loss of their friend.
âLevy, is Gajeel okay?â Lucy asks
I look at her before glancing towards the tall black haired dragon slayer in the distance.
âI donât know.â I answer honestly âThey loved each other. But never got to tell each other till it was too late.â
Gajeelâs P.O.V.
I watch as everyone leaves Y/Nâs grave. Levy stops next to me, staring behind me. Her shoulder in line with mine.
âShe really did love you.â She says
âI know. She told me.â I answer âDonât go overworking yourself kid. She wouldnât want that.âÂ
âShe wouldnât want you distancing yourself either. She wants the best for all of us.â She reasons âDonât be a stranger.âÂ
She walks away as I walk more toward the grave, kneeling in front of it. My hand coming to rest atop of the stone.Â
âI loved you too.â I whisper âBut heavenâs too far away to stay by your side short stack.âÂ
I stand up, looking up toward the sky, taking a deep breath. The sun baring down, the warmth hitting my body as I turn around, fixing the suit jacket.Â
Request: Could we get a fluffy oneshot of Ulaz x pregnant Fem! Human reader?
A/N: Sorry that itâs been super long! Also sorry that itâs super short!
Your P.O.V.
Youâd be sitting at the table, your hand resting on your stomach. The war was over, your life was about to change with your little one on the way. Ulaz wasnât sure if he was ready but you knew heâd be a great father. He already had the instincts of one.
âDear, Iâm home!â Ulaz hollers as he walks into your shared home
âIn the kitchen.â You call back
You hear his footsteps start to get louder before a gentle kiss is placed on top of your head.
âHow are my two favorite people doing?â He whispers
âYour child really enjoys moving when Iâm trying to get stuff done.â You tease
He kneels next to the chair youâre sitting in, leaning toward your stomach. His hand resting on your stomach as he starts to whisper things to your little one.Â
âYouâll be the greatest thing that has ever happened to mom and me.â He whispers âWe're both very excited for you.âÂ
You chuckle as you set your hand on top of his hands, excited for your family to get a start on life.
Hi- is it possible that you could write another Male Reader? I donât have a huge preference on which character it is, ideas are chase, Sebastian, or Oliver (elite force) thanks so much -
I know this isnât a specific request. But right now my requests are close. But when I do start writing or allow requests again, Iâll try to do another one.
A/N: Hey guy, Iâm back. All of you who have requests, they are coming. Just taking a little bit longer as Iâve been slammed with work.Â
Summary: Around the time that Erwin recruited Levi and his two friends, you were a recent graduate, top of your class. Youâre the daughter of Grisha Yeager, he brought you to Paradis from Marley, therefore you are Carlaâs step daughter. When you joined the scouts, Carla made Keith promise to watch out for you. That was until Erwin suggested that you be partnered up with the rookie squad. Little did they know, you used to run with Levi and his group before you went to be with your dad and step mom.
Your P.O.V.Â
You walk into the private rooms, walking toward Commander Shadisâs room. He and squad leader Erwin needed to talk to you.Â
You had been off visiting family, seeing your father as well as his newborn son, Eren. You were happy for your father but at the same time, you were starting to miss Zeke back at home.Â
âCommander, Captain.â You greetÂ
âY/N, glad you made the trip back.â Keith starts âThanks for meeting with us right away.âÂ
âOf course. Carla said hi.â You reply before looking at Erwin âIâm assuming this meeting is for something that you are suggesting.âÂ
âThat would be correct.â He says âWeâre getting ready to go on another expedition. And weâre bringing three new rookies.âÂ
âOkay? Why are you telling me this?â You start to questionÂ
âWeâre transferring you squads for this job. Weâre putting you with Flagon and the rookies from the underground.â Keith starts âIâm sure youâll be fine. You did graduate top of your class.âÂ
âWhat about my squad?â You questionÂ
âHange will be fine. Might be a little weird for a little bit but sheâll be fine.â Erwin startsÂ
You look out the window, looking toward the field where you see the other recent recruits plus three new ones.Â
Levi...Â
Isabel...
Furlan...
Leviâs P.O.V.
I look up to toward the building, seeing the y/c/h in the window.Â
âWho is that?â I questionÂ
âWouldnât you like to know.â Somebody commentsÂ
âSheâs top of our class.â Another starts âY/N Yeager. Rumor has it that she only really gets a private room because Commander Shadis promised her family that heâd keep a close eye on her.âÂ
Y/N?Â
âLevi, you donât think...â Furlan startsÂ
âI donât know. We havenât seen Y/N since she left with her father.â I hiss âWeâll stay quiet for now. For now we focus on the job.âÂ
âShe might turn into an enemy, are you prepared for this?â Isabel startsÂ
âIâll be fine. Will you?â I retortÂ
I turn away from the other soldiers before heading back toward the barracks.Â
âLets just get ready to put the plan into action.â I grumbleÂ
-~-Â
Walking through the barracks, almost immediately running into somebody. I see the jacket before the gear at their hips. I back up a bit before studying the figure in front of me.Â
âY/N...â I startÂ
âLevi. Itâs been a while.â Y/N starts âI thought you would never join the military.âÂ
âI thought the same thing about you.â I reply âThought your parents were against it.âÂ
âNot like theyâve ever stopped her.â Furlan saysÂ
âOkay the fact that all three of you guys are here, there must be something going on.â She starts, eyeing the three of us
âDonât know what youâre talking about.â I grumble âNow if youâll excuse us, we should get some sleep before the big day tomorrow.âÂ
âOf course.â She whispersÂ
Your P.O.V.Â
You sit in the ruins, your head resting against the wall behind you.Â
âY/N?â Hange starts âI have a question for you.âÂ
âAsk away Hange.â You drawl âBut please remember, that we all need rest.âÂ
âIt will be super fast.â She chucklesÂ
âAlright, then ask away.â You say
âYou and the Levi dude. I saw how you two almost seemed to read each otherâs mind out there with that titan.â She starts âEveryone is talking about it.âÂ
âI-itâs nothing.â You try to brush offÂ
âIâve heard things. You ran in the underground for a while didnât you.â She says âYou ran into him and his group, didnât you.âÂ
âHange, Iâm done with this. Iâm getting some sleep. We have a long day tomorrow.â You sayÂ
âOh come on!â Hange continues to pryÂ
âHange, I love you. You know that. I love your curiosity, but at the same time. We need sleep.â You whisper âAnd because of how well I know you, donât go question Levi and them either.âÂ
Hange goes to complain before you glance at her. She quickly agrees before starting to lay down and starts to fall asleep. You hear a quick whisper, causing you to look over where you see Levi nodding toward the hallway.Â
Getting up quietly, you head toward the hallway, watching out for the other soldiers as they are sleeping.Â
âWhat was that about?â He asksÂ
âJust Hange being Hange.â You answer âWhatâs it to you?âÂ
âWell she was questioning you about me.â He continuesÂ
âIt was more about me and when I ran in the underground.â You point out âYou donât need to worry about it. Nobody knows about you and me. Just like we agreed when I left the underground.âÂ
Levi looks at you, just shaking his head. He takes one last look before heading back toward the other three. You just shake your head, heading back toward your mat, almost immediately falling asleep.
-~-
Your hood being held to your face as you ride through the rain, you were separated when the rain started to pour down. You were separated from Flagon as well as Levi and the others.Â
You werenât worried about Levi and the others but at the same time, you were. They didnât have the years of training that you did. Sure Levi could fight, the killing of the titan just proved that. But at the same time, they were caught up on training within a few short months, that canât be enough time to really learn how to deal with these kind of expeditions or even titans in this kind of weather.Â
âLevi!â You yell outÂ
You didnât care if this revealed the big secret or anything. You knew nobody would care if they didnât make it back, but that is where everyone was wrong. You would care, you know you made a promise but if it meant the difference between life or death than you would break the promise.Â
âDamnit, Levi, where are you?â You hissÂ
You finally hear a yell before you starting direction your horse toward where you think you heard the fighting.Â
Shortly afterward, you see Erwinâs blonde hair as heâs holding Leviâs blade away from his body.Â
You canât hear what is being said as you near them before you see that Levi is the only one standing. Levi sees you, his eyes almost looking relieved. You watch as his eyes dart back and thatâs when you see the three corpses, or at least what is left of them. You slowly nod your head in understanding as you bring your horse to a halt next to them.Â
âYeager, where were you?â Erwin asksÂ
âI was separated when the storm started sir. Iâve been trying to find everyone else ever since.â You explainÂ
Erwin glances between the two of you before turning his horse around, looking back toward the wall.Â
âWelcome to the scouts Levi.â He says, starting the retreat back toward the wallÂ
You ride next to Levi on the way back, the entire ride almost silent before you grab his reins and pull him back, taking up the rear of the soldiers that are left.Â
âWhat the hell happened?â You whisper âWhat did I miss?âÂ
âLooks like you and me are going to be a team again. Iâm officially joining the scouts.â Levi grumbles âThis time not as some sort of fake job. This time to avenge Isabel and Furlan.âÂ
Maby a marcus devenport x reader like were leos bestie but falls for marcus
I am very sorry anon, but my requests are currently closed. Iâm not sure when Iâll be reopening them. But keep an eye out and go ahead and request!
Okay, but I seriously love the fact that when Naruto and B are fighting reanimated Itachi and Nagato. The two of them still have free will so they just tell the moves theyâre going to be doing or where theyâre at to help B and Naruto. I might be late but I love it.Â
