TNGDH 26
The study was filled with people even before the sun rose.
The Kyle who once kissed me ten times a day only kissed me thrice. He worked busily as if he had forgotten about my existence.
On one side, it’s a good thing. I don’t have to deal with his otaku-ness.
“Move that item to this side. The clothes too.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“Good. And the report?”
“It has been sorted out, Your Highness.”
“Well done. Then call that person over here.”
“Are you talking about the demonic beast specialist? I am not sure if he is in his room right now…… as Your Highness has mentioned before, it seems the time he is out is longer than the time he stays in the room.”
Kyle drew a faint smile.
“Still, we promised to go together. He must be waiting.”
“I understand, Your Highness. I will call him over quickly. Then Your Highness…….”
“I will be going over the reports on the demonic beasts for a moment.”
With that, he came over briefly to give a pat on my head and began to read over the reports.
Since it was a crucial matter, Kyle’s expression became serious. Even the smallest detail could determine life or death.
I contemplated to whether I should use the replica hamster, but decided that a ‘Summon’ would be enough after seeing Kyle focusing hard on his duties.
‘Current Miracle Points are roughly 26 percent…….’
No matter how fast we return, it could take up to half a day.
Who knows how many acorn cookies I would have to eat. Do you not do bulk sales? Well, okay then…… I’ll think about it when the time comes. Worst comes worst, I’ll pretend to return early.
I used ‘Summon’.
[I wish you good luck! (ෆ`꒳´ෆ)]
I wore my now familiar clothes and pretended as if I have been waiting in the room for a while. The soldiers then came and guided me back to the study.
Until the moment I entered the study, Kyle was busy reading. Seeing him like this made him look very diligent and tenacious.
“The Northern winds are harsh.”
He gestured at a box on the table.
“Wear this now. We will depart immediately.”
I looked inside the box.
There were sturdy leather boots, a hooded long coat, and light-weighted bow and arrows.
“The bow and arrows will not be necessary for this reconnaissance, but it is good to get used to having them equipped.”
For him to say that, it must be extremely uncomfortable to carry around.
I suppressed my urge to talk back. What could I do anyway? If I wanted to find one that was comfortable, I would’ve just stayed quietly in the castle.
“I’ve also prepared something.”
I was trying to figure out when to give it to him for a while, so this would be a good time.
I pretended to carefully take out my coat pocket and called the store.
[Love Love Corner~❤]
I will never get used to that name ‘Whatever Corner’.
‘Anyways, let’s see. The hamster items…….’
[Fluffy hamster yarn! ｜ ❤×10]
[Small and precious knitting needle set ｜ ❤×10]
[Try making one yourself! 79 styles of hamster clothes ｜ ❤×20]
Hey, hey! Hey!
What’s with the prices! They all have an extra ‘0’ than before! Isn’t this a scam?
[o(TヘTo)]
If someone were to see us, they would think I’m the one scamming you with your expression like that. This is absurd.
‘Still, I can buy it since I have plenty of Hearts compared to Miracle Points…….’
From now on, I should buy items beforehand while they are cheap. To betray a person like this. I don’t have a choice so I should accept it at the moment.
[Currently Possessing Hearts ｜ ❤×185]
New items arrived in the Love Love Corner.
[Demonic Beast Encyclopedia ｜ ❤×200]
This is exactly what I want!
I cried of joy inside.
‘I wonder if the system requires the Hearts and Miracle Points to constantly update the store.’
If that’s the case, I could look over the increase in price from earlier. That is, if they release useful items like this.
However, there’s a problem…….
[Currently Possessing Hearts ｜ ❤×185]
……Not enough Hearts.
I probably could’ve bought it if I hadn’t been ripped off.
I resisted the urge to curse out loud.
“What’s wrong?”
The image of Kyle reading <Try making one yourself! 79 styles of hamster clothes> as seriously as the report from before appeared before me.
“Well…… umm, so. Do you like my present?”
“I don’t know if it’ll like wearing these clothes, but they are definitely cute.”
He flipped to a page and showed it to me. It was a picture of a pink cape with a strawberry-shaped embroidery.
“Oh…….”
Bastard. You think it’d like that? The hamster would punch you if it could. And how do I know that? I know that because I’m that hamster.
Of all 79 clothes, you just had to pick that one? How about the others? Don’t tell me all the other 78 clothes are also like that.
That stupid strawberry. In all twenty-seven years of my life, I never worn such a ridiculous print. I wouldn’t even wear it by accident.
“……I-I’m sure it’ll like it. Is that pattern to your taste?”
“Well. Just imagining Cashew wearing it makes me happy.”
Kyle’s expression grew a little brighter..
I quickly checked the amount of Hearts I have.
[Currently Possessing Hearts ｜ ❤×186]
I already knew it vaguely, but it was now clear.
A Heart was given when Kyle Jane Meinhardt became happy. And with that, I could buy something that might be helpful or that would help avoid a crisis.
For example, the <Demonic Beast Encyclopedia>.
That book will clearly contain the characteristics, hunting habits, weaknesses, and other information on the demonic beasts in the North. That must’ve been why it was added to the store just recently, right before the reconnaissance.
As if to confirm my thoughts, the system window quietly floated up.
[Please replace bad moments with happy moments, and overcome dangerous situations!]
[Happiness is said to be another name for miracles. (๑˘ꇴ˘๑)]
Alright, I understand. I’ll do my best.
I showcased to Kyle how to use the small crochet hook.
During a volunteer work in the past, I learned to crochet wash scrubs. At the time, I thought it was one of the most useless thing to learn but now I’m using it here. As expected, who knows how life would turn up in the future.
“I’ll teach you more in detail next time…… this is basically how you do it. Your Highness is new to this, so I prepared everything carefully just for you.”
“Hm.”
“Since we have to go now, take a quick look and come back to it later. Rather than that strawberry thing, let’s start with simple clothes and try various other designs. Like sweaters and pants.”
“I worry it might not feel comfortable wearing clothes.”
I can put up with it once or twice.
“It should be fine if you don’t try to force it to wear them.”
He went silent momentarily. It seemed to be that he was imagining something in his head.
[Currently Possessing Hearts ｜ ❤×195]
……Crazy.
Aren’t you imagining things a little too hard? Just what exactly is going on in your mind right now?……No, never mind. Let’s not be curious about that. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
“Though I suppose it will be quiet for a while?”
I walked down the stairs, matching his pace. Kyle nodded, realizing I was talking about Belial.
“That’s right. There hasn’t been any big news so it should be quiet for at most a year, at least three months.
“You talk about it as if it’s some kind of annual event.”
“Well, it’s not any different.”
Kyle wrapped his arms around my shoulders to prevent me from being pushed around by the other knights.
It was comfortable to be honest. It felt like I was had some kind of special privilege. That being said, it didn’t make me feel happy in particular since I would have to return this favor eventually. Whether it would be a miracle, or happiness, by any means.
“He does not like me. His hate is similar to how I resent his bloodline. However, it didn’t feel as if he would try to get rid of me.”
He would be happy to put Kyle under his feet, but he wouldn’t try to kill him.
The reason was obvious. I bit my lower lips out of annoyance.
“He doesn’t want to manage the North. Well, not that he would be doing it directly with his own hands anyway.”
“That’s right.”
So, he would be keeping Kyle alive as a guard? I can’t deny it does look like that right now.
“Come this way.”
Kyle picked me up and put me on top of a black horse. It felt a little uncomfortable seeing that the current horse was taller than the one I rode yesterday.
I held the reigns awkwardly and looked down at Kyle. Seeing his face from above made him look slightly different than usual.
He mounted the horse in a familiar manner and also held the reigns from behind me. When his chest touched my back, I felt strangely stable.
“Lean on me.”
Kyle spoke bluntly. I naturally leaned on him as he placed both arms around from my back.
To be honest, it felt a little cozy. Our body size wasn’t too different and his solid chest was quite comfortable to lean on.
“You don’t seem to be nervous at all.”
“If we stay here talking, we’d only waste time and energy.”
“You’re right.”
Kyle took the lead and moved forward with the knights lined up behind him. Clip-clop. As the dust rose and the horses started to walk in unison, I felt the ground underneath shaking.
“About Cashew.”
I hesitantly opened my mouth.
To be honest, I’m not confident that I could make someone happy. Even trying to be happy myself was a struggle, how hard would it be to take care of others?
“Why do you like it so much? It’s just a small demonic beast. Nobody thought you’d even take it in as a pet. You brought in magicians, veterinarians, and me too… it’s as if you cherish it a lot and I find that curious. I thought demonic beasts were to be slain or conquered at all costs in the North.”
I don’t know how to make you happy, but I want to listen to you and understand you.
“The people of Blake took over to reside in the North, but at the same time they coexist with the North. Humans are beings who conquer nature, but at the same time they are beings who belong to nature. Destruction is not the only thing they do.”
“Demonic beasts are a dangerous existence. One careless mistake and it could instantly snuff out a person’s life and trample on the foundation you built over the years. Cashew is no exception. If I deem that it will become dangerous to keep as a pet, it will be disposed of.”
Please don’t do that. There’s a person inside.
“However, I cannot kill it for a reason that has not yet happened yet.”
So I…… no, Cashew could’ve died?
“It was separated from its group, shaking helplessly and unable to even open its eyes. If I hadn’t picked it up then and there, it wouldn’t even have lasted an hour.”
“Did you pity it?”
“Yes. Is that strange?”
“No, well…….”
Is there anything to think strange about it? That was his choice and in the end, it was a good choice. Who would’ve thought that the ruler of the North would have such a humane side to him.
“I just want to say thank you.”
Kyle looked at me for a short moment in silence. It was a strange look, but also a look of happiness.
“Would Cashew think that way too?”
“Of course.”
“How could you be so sure?”
“Since…… I’m a demonic beast specialist?”
And your one and only pet hamster.

[Your Gentle Comfort] 18+
Story Summary: Your interest in boys didn’t really exist in your life. It wasn’t because you were against romance, but mainly for the fact that all the boys in your school were— well, boys. It wasn’t until you met your new teacher and had a relationship growing with him that you realized, you wanted a man.
Sense of Belonging - Chap 2
Joel Miller x F!reader - Teacher x F!Student
Warning: AGE GAP: After all it is a highschool student x teacher. Light swearing. Slow burn story. Being neglected by your parents. Emotional confrontation. Mentions of kidnapping [More will be added as the story progresses.]
Word Count: 3.6k (let me know if u want shorter or longer!!)
Chapter 1 —-> Click here!
Chapter Summary: Rainy day hits your home town, it gets you feeling glum whilst reflecting on your relationships. Your gloomy attitude also has someone turning their head to show you it’s ok.
————————————————————————————
The next morning arises. You felt your tired eyes and your brain starting up for the day. You’re then completely woken up with memories of yesterday flooding through your head. Mr.Miller was the main character in each memory or thought, they featured his voice and the unexpected softness that came from his lips while he spoke to you. The way he dressed was picture perfect.
He made you feel something, but you weren’t quite sure what and whatever you were feeling. Though you were sure of one thing. You liked it and it was the first feeling you were sure of. As wrong as it seemed, you were pretty sure you had caught feelings for him.
At first you were thinking you had daddy issues, which isn’t completely off course. Your relationship with your father wasn’t as perfect as most father daughter relationships. You never thought much of it though, I mean it was what you were used to. A closed off father who was too busy with work to talk to his own daughter. So when Mr.Miller approached you saying you had your shit together, you felt like you were noticed.
You pulled yourself out of bed, and left the warm comfort of your blankets. You made your way to the kitchen where you prepared a quick breakfast. Your father had already left for work and that’s how it usually was. Your mother? She was usually gone too.
The house was gloomy and quite. You look out the window of your kitchen and it was grey and rainy. Shit. You were going to have to walk in the rain. Before you were looking forward to walking to school. Now you wish you could stay home and curl back in bed, be nice and dry and let yourself drift off. However, any absences seen by your parents would leave them angry at you and you didn’t want that. It was the reason your friend group didn’t like you. They said you didn’t have a sense of thrill in you. But they didn’t know about your everyday lifestyle, so you didn’t push a reasoning to them when confronted about your “boringness.”
You’d rub your eyes and walk back to your room to put on some clothes for the day. You decided right then and there that it would be a 0 percent effort day. Sweats and sweater is what you wore, comfy and practical. You put your phone in your sweater pocket, wired ear buds placed in your ears and you were ready. You finished your hot look off with a jacket and your back pack and found yourself in the doorway ready to leave. Looking for your umbrella, you were unfortunate and it had already been taken. Great.
You did a swift jog to school, this was another reason why you were grateful living only 5 minutes away. Thankfully it wasn’t a hard down pour and just frequent drips of water. It must have been raining all night due to the sides of streets being completely flooded. If only you had checked the weather before bed last night.
You made it to the school. Looking at the path that lead to the entrance, you remember seeing Mr.Miller for the first time. The thought of him struck your gut with a punch, he was going to use you as a class example for something. You sure weren’t dressed as an example today, knowing it was raining maybe it would slide. Either way, you felt bad and nervous for your future embarrassment.
You entered the class, looking at his desk. There he was. He sat reading a leather covered book, glasses placed on the bridge of his nose. You continue to walk to your desk. He looks up at you to see you drenched in water and removing your jacket before sitting down. His lips parted, did he feel bad?
“What happened to you?” Your friend asked you with worry painted on his face. This was unusual. He never started a conversation with him being worried about you, let alone start one.
“Yeah, I’m fine. Just got splashed by a car on my way here I guess. Not too big of a deal.” A lie, it purely was just the rain, but oh was it such a big deal. If your parents cared about you for at least 5 minutes you may have been fortunate enough to get a ride, and had the opportunity to wear something a little nicer. They could have done the bare minimum too and leave you an umbrella which you would’ve been fine with. But nope.
It wasn’t until you sat down that you realized just how soaked you were. Your pants stuck to your legs and the temperature of it brought shock to your eyes. Cold. You were in for a long unpleasant day. You had crossed your arms and placed your head snug inside, just to lift your head again at the sound of your name.
“Come with me.” Mr.Miller had said, his eyes looked down at you. No sense of any emotion. You couldn’t read him. You lift your body up and followed him outside the classroom, hall empty.
“Let’s get you dry.” Though the hall was deserted, it was filled with him. Just those words alone made you feel something, it felt so wrong. He was just doing his job. But knowing someone was looking after you felt nice. Were you this desperate for attention from an older figure?
You didn’t reply to him. You only looked up at him a couple of times on the walk to who knows where. You only went on to admire him. He wore a different shirt this time, it was a blue dress shirt. The colour fit him well. You thought it was crazy just how easily his figure took your mind off of things. You thought he was hot and it drove you nuts. What would it be like to touch him?
“This school is very generous.” he said with a smirk. “I get my own office outside of the classroom.” Seeing the goofy smile on his face just from the knowledge that he had an extra space made you wanna laugh. But you held it back, because maybe that would be weird. Plus you didn’t want to ruin the moment for him.
He guides you into the room that you swore you’ve never seen before and shuts the door behind him. You glanced around, It was a small room, not much bigger than a walk in closet. The far wall housed a desk that faced towards the window leading outside. There was a heavy downpour outside, thank god you left early or you would have been stuck in that. There was a ton of shelves that filled the blank spaces of the walls too, mostly empty except for a few. They housed a bunch of different papers, folders and books. One even had another sheep figurine.
“You like sheep?” you said to break the scilence besides his rustling in a box. You hear a chuckle from the man inside the box.
“Yeah I do.” he replies
“Why? Aren’t they really noisy?”
“I’suppose, don’t laugh. But I’ve wanted to own a farm and raise sheep.”
That would explain the reoccurring figurines. It was a cute dream from a man like him.
“Here they are.” He hands you a pair of joggers and a long sleeved shirt that had a symbol of a horse on it.
“Oh, thanks.” Your face smeared with confusion. How does he just have clothes that would fit me
“Ah— I have a niece. My brother left‘em. Somehow ended up in here n I remembered about ‘em. She doesn’t wear ‘em anymore anyways.” He responds as if he read your mind.
“Convenient.” Convenient that he just knew what you were thinking.
He reaches for the door, but hesitates to open it after glancing back at you. “Mind I ask something?” he says calmly.
You knew what was coming. I mean who wouldn’t ask, it was kind of weird for someone to just show up completely drenched in water. This was the part you hated most about any sort of interaction with somebody. Questioning.
You stand still, gazing up at him. You weren’t sure if you wanted him to ask or not. Because once he did, you didn’t know what was going to happen to you next. Any sort of emotion could lash out. It was best that he didn’t have to go through that, especially on his second day.
You were basically shaking. Maybe signs of tears starting to develop in your eyes as well.
“its’okay. Maybe next time.”
It was clear he didn’t wanna push you into a more uncomfortable situation. You were unbelieved by the fact he just let it go. It would come back around to hit you in the face I imagined, but you’d be ready at least.
Once more you’re walking down the hallway. You both split ways as you were going to the women’s washroom to change. Nothing like having wet clothing in your bag.
You get back to class. Seemed everything was back in order as Mr.Miller was reading his book again, and glasses resting on his nose. A literal librarian.
Your friend notices your arrival but doesn’t pay you any attention. Thank god. You didn’t think you could handle anymore questions.
And just like that, students began to fill their desks and the bell had rung. Class was to start again.
Mr.Miller stood up from his corner and walked his way into the middle of everyone’s view.
“Alright, as we discussed yesterday you will have a prompt to write about, grab your materials.” Students begin to shuffle in their bags trying to grab what they needed, you joined in too. The tapping of the chalk began. He was writing the prompt.
“What angers you?” is what was written.
“I’ll give you all 10 minutes to write whatever comes to mind.” You make eye contact with Mr.Miller. “—and yes, after you’ve written, I’ll be reviewing if you’ve filled the page.”
Goddamn. You knew you were gonna be asked about it, but this way was never an option for you. You were always expected to use your voice when expressing your emotions, but never written. You liked this. This was do-able. But it only made you wonder, was this the actual prompt he wanted to use? Or was it for your sake to express your unsaid emotions comfortably?
Often in the 10 minutes you’d look up from your writing to see Mr.Millers eyes on you. You were pouring out all the details of how this morning sucked, and somehow even more from the day to day routines you faced. It bothered you a smidge that Mr.Miller was going to read it eventually, but you felt he deserved to know after taking the time to help you out. You felt appreciated… and again. Noticed. Noticed that you weren’t alone in the pain you felt, and that someone was there. Mr.Miller was there.
You continued to press on through the jungle of thoughts to clear the path on paper. You eyes flooded a few times and you felt your pulse grow stronger. But you had a sense of relief after the time was up. It felt nice to free those emotions. However the real test would be how you’d feel after someone’s read what you’ve wrote.
“That being time, if you could place your paper on my desk that would be great.” he taps a spot on his desk. Students then got up to place their papers on the spot. You nervously made your way over to, placing it on the pile. You catch his gaze again, he then lets out a soft smile that only you could see. Then journey your way back to your desk.
Upon sitting down you laid your head down in your arms again. Thoughts piled in your head about the fact he smiled at you, how he kept a watchful gaze on you and how his calm voice sounded earlier in his office. You trailed off into the ‘what if’s’ … what if he hugged me? what if I hugged him? I want to tell him I’m thankful.
While you dug around your thoughts on Mr.Miller. He continued the class onto an assignment he’d be moving you guys into in the next few days. With that, a handout was being distributed that discussed ways you can enhance your writing. He walked from desk to desk making sure everyone got one and once arriving at yours he tapped your head to get your attention on the paper. Reading it was fun, you’ve always liked writing and being descriptive when talking about your own fantasy world. This class was going to be a breeze.
When reading over the handout, you notice Mr.Miller flipping through the papers on his desk. Eventually he pulled one out. He glanced at you but you tried to look away as fast as you could to pretend you didn’t notice him taking it out. You had a feeling that paper may had been yours. You slowly look back in his direction. His eyes were wider than they were before. Either a very interesting piece of work, or it had to be yours. I mean, he seemed to be the type to show very little emotion with his eyes, even when he smiled his eyes didn’t move with it. You look back down at the paper in front of you to avoid being caught looking at his expression. But it was hard not to look away. You wanted to know what he was thinking and you were best doing that by watching someone’s face change.
But just like that the bell had rung. It was already time to be moving on to your next class.
Mr.Miller clears his throat, looks at you then towards the main area of the class. “See you all tomorrow—“ He paused. He then called your name and asked you to stay.
What now?
The class had left and just like that the door had shut. It was now only you and Mr.Miller in this classroom. He walks over to you and places a chair next to your desk and has a seat.
“Normally I don’t read over the work. I only check it to see if people gave effort.” He says. His eyes were a deep brown, it was the first time you noticed.
“You’re going through sometin’ for the fact you filled both sides and what your lil story was about.” For the first time you heard some concern in his voice. You knew you put a lot on that page. Somethings you don’t even remember so it could be anything of what you’ve been experiencing at home.
He placed his hand on your lap. Your eyes widened. A large pause commenced as you just stared into his eyes. He then finally opened his mouth to speak.
“I’m here for you.”
Without another word, or thought hitting your brain. Your eyes filled with tears and you were left to crumble on the spot. Eventually you felt his embrace. His arms were solid and they felt like hard brick walls to protect what ever entered. It was the first time you felt safe. You only continued to sob into his shoulder. No one’s ever told me that…
“I— I don’t” you stutter with your words. “I don’t under stand why they treat me like they do.” You choke on your tears. You felt his hug grow a little tighter before releasing you. He looked into your eyes, the eyes which burned from the tears. He rubbed your cheek to clear the rivers that flowed down.
For the first time, you let everything release and finally not by yourself. You reassessed your darkness to someone you’ve only known for a day, but someone who seemed to get you in all of 5 minutes. It all felt like an eternity. It felt so easy to just release everything around him. It was odd. But you weren’t going to complain about it. You felt free for the first time in awhile. It was nice feeling the comfort from another human.
“T-thank you. I’m sorry.”
The crying had come to a stop.
“You shouldn’t thank me, nor apologize.” He said it with comfort. It felt real.
He still kept his gaze on you in worry. You both sat in silence for a little longer, until he spoke.
“Do you need a ride home?”
It was weird. But you really didn’t want to walk in the rain. The wet cold feeling of your clothing wasn’t so pleasant. Plus, what was the worst that could happen? He kidnaps you? He doesn’t seem like the type… Even if so, would it be so bad?
“I- I’d appreciate that, thanks.” you gave him a smile whilst rubbing your sleeve onto your cheeks. You took a few deep breaths before getting up to leave.
“Remember, if you have anything you need to say. I’ll be here.” It was reassuring to hear his voice say that. You glanced at him one last time, he remained in the seat beside your desk and gave you that signature nod once more.
You journeyed off down the hall and down some stairs making a right turn into the library. You decided it was probably the more calmer place to cool off from the recent events. Maybe even peaceful enough to think about how he touched you and took you into his arms without hesitation…your heart was fluttering.
You pulled out a book from the shelf and found a place to sit. This was a better idea than completely covering your thoughts with Mr.Miller and have you drooling in public again. Problem is, this book was about romance. It only created more scenarios you could imagine with Mr.Miller. You didn’t think they’d roam this far… God am I disgusting?
You glance up from your book eyeing the printer by the librarians desk. Mr.Miller was there collecting papers. He was everywhere. Even though you told yourself to stop and how he was only being a teacher trying to help out you couldn’t help it. Why’d he have to be so damn attractive?!?
The bell had rung and you scurried off to your next class. Keeping the book you had taken out for…later use.
Again same routine as before, dozing off in your thoughts but still managing to grip on to reality so you could catch your name being called at any moment. You couldn’t get over the fact that soon you’d be in his car. Completely immersed into a part of his life. The smell of his car, wether it was dirty or clean. It would tell a story of who he was and it only made him that much more intriguing.
———————————————————————————
The school day ended. Leaving your last class with your heart thumping loudly. You swore anyone who walked by would hear it. You made your way to the front doors, just to see that it was still pouring rain. Mr.Miller stood there waiting with a book bag in hand and an umbrella. It seemed he was waiting for you. He looked up to see you, standing more straight then he was before and gave a nod. You both left out the door while he opened the umbrella.
A short journey to the car later and you were in his car. You slightly looked around, the car was decent, but it wasn’t clean to perfection. It felt right. The smell is what hit you the hardest. It smelt exactly like his cologne which stuffed butterflies in your stomach. You liked the smell of him mixed with it. It was a drug.
Now came the awkward part, the part where he’d ask you for your address to which you didn’t think about beforehand. He’d now know where you lived when he’d drive you. But you slid it off your shoulder.
You told him where about he had to go, and soon the 2 of you were off. The sound of the wheels in the puddles was satisfying. You were so lucky in this moment to experience comfort during a time like this. If only your own parents cared as much.
For the most part the ride was silent, every now and then he’d ask you a random question like what your favourite colour was or what day of the week you preferred. It was a nice distraction.
The car comes to a stop on your empty driveway. As expected no one was home.
“Thanks again.” You give him a smile and move your hand towards the handle of the door. But before you could leave he grabs your hand.
“You’re crying again.” He says comfortably.
He was right, your eyes were flooded over. So strange. So unexpected.
“It just feels nice to be cared about.” you reply. Maybe not the full reason you were crying but it had to be one.
You then left the car and made your way to your door, giving a wave as he nodded back to you.
He never moved the car until you had stepped a foot into the doorway. Then just like that he vanished down your street as if nothing had happened.
He’s just a teacher, he’s just a teacher. Teachers wouldn’t drive you home though would they?
You enter your bedroom, taking off then laying the clothes he gave you on the bed. For whatever reason you grabbed them and smelt them. Upon that reaction they smelt just like him. He must’ve had them for awhile for how densely they smelt like him. Either way it was nice. It gave you a sense of comfort in your gloomy house and that was never going to bother you.
But just like that, you came to the conclusion on this day. You did in fact have a crush on Mr.Miller. Now to find ways to spend more time with him.
————————————————————————————
How’re we feeling? 😭 This was a crazy chapter with the information dump but hopefully it was ok. Overall hope it was good :) Not sure what else to say :) Have a goodnight/day :)

Adam and Why I Felt His Character Disappointing
Sooo, I have watched the first two episodes of Hazbin Hotel! While I did really enjoy Status Quo (The song, the fact that Vox loses his first match against Alastor in the show is quite sad.) the rest of the show, I had a lot of problems. Especially the way they handled Adam.
(Look at this lil' shid.)
The dude-bro thing is just too much. It feels like his entire character is just Mammon but Angel.
Now, I've been working on rewrites for months now, slowly turning it into my own piece of fiction. Funnily enough, me and Vivzie had the same idea of taking from Paradise Falls. I feel like the book is great and can have many different ways of interpreting it. However, I am not here to talk about Lucifer, so lets instead get back to Adam.
So, let me tell you all about Adam in Below Zion and how he is in a bit of an odd spot considering Angels...:
Adam is in his luxury spire, pacing around, phone in hand, another hand flailing, disappointment, sadness and anger is felt in the presence of his holy living room.
"You hold the keys to the Well of Souls, you lead an army of an entirely new species of Angels! And you're letting these absolute nutjobs beat you!? Adam, come on! You're better than that! I mean for fuck sake man, you have the name of the first human! He got like... 100 percent of woman in his time!"
"Good on him, but i have 0 percent. I'm telling you, there's something wrong with women. They Never go for a nice guy like me, only for douchebags who probably don't even treat them right!"
"Well, Adam. Do tell me… how would YOU treat your woman?"
"Well, i treat M'lady like a queen, of course! They don't know how good they would have it with me!"
"... M'lady...M'lady? Adam... you don't treat woman like... oh my... Mrghhh! Look, this is the third time this week. Why don't you just come over to me and... we'll talk bro to bro. How does that sound, hm?"
"...I don't know what you have, the Virtuosos (opposite of sinner, worships angels despite flaws) tell me it's Top gentemanly behavior of the century. And yes... I'd love that. I'm coming. And i'm bringing my emotional support Lute."
"... Just... just come over here and we'll fix you up... or attempt to at least..."
Adam sighs, and hangs up. Lute comes out of Adams room with a suggestive smile, like she always does.
"Mmm, we're visiting Master Lucifer, sir?"
"We are, my dear Lute."
He says, kissing her forehead.
"Just a trip for a talk between bros. Sounds lovely, doesn't it?"
"Indeed, sir... Would you like me to transform?"
"That would be preferable for the way... yes. Makes getting out of town easier."
She nods... and folds into a brilliant lute! And then... Adam is off... taking flight to meet with Lucy...
Adam is an agent of Lucifer whom is... okay, lets not beat around the bush here. He is an incel. The odd thing here is that, Exterminators are an unofficial branch of Heavens military. So unofficial that even Arch-Angels don't know about them. They are robotic angels, made by Lucifer and a dear friend of his, trained and maintained by Adam. Adam is also not the leader of the Angels. He works at a very high position, that being that he guards the Well of Souls that leads to the conjuration of all the souls on Earth. All Exterminators are made for Lucifer and Adam. The marks on their eyes are the Mark of Lucifer. They belong to him. They do whatever HE wants.
This makes Adams girlfriend a robot.
He has an AI girlfriend.
He objectifies women to no end.
He is also very good at his job as being Lucifers mole in Heaven. While Sinners do pacts with each other, Adam allows Lucifer to have a foothold in Heaven, years after he got kicked out...
Adam is in his luxury spire, sitting at his computer, with a plate of pretzels on the desk, phone in hand, screaming wildly to it!
"What you're suggesting is ABSOLUTELY ludicrous! I will have NONE of it! You will deal with the Brightwing family until next week or I'll make sure to put that pact to good use!"
From the phone, a rather paniced individual speaks!
"Hah, BITCH! You think you have any say in here!? Killing the guys children- what don't tell me YOU have any children!? You do?! Well, uh, thats the thing! Noooot anymore you don't! I'll see you again soooooon~
The other angel on the phone seems to speak in an extremely agitated and afraid tone! Pleading!
"Oh! Changed your mind have you!? Great, GREAT! NOW! I got the whole thing planned out for you, so YOU can't mess this up! Sending you the docs. DON'T. MESS. THIS. UP! BYE, ASSHOLE!"
He hangs up and grins triumphantly…
He continues to deal with the usual fluff. Lucifers extend into heavens business. Angels need a good amount of convincing to stay in line sometimes, but it's good work, and… dare he say it, fun~ With how he feels life is treating him, it feels Great to be able to make the lives of others even worse. It having such a positive impact on the work of his best bud is of course a wonderful bonus!
He is a lonely asshole that lives off of the misery of others and finds purpose in serving someone like Lucifer.
He is a villain, but he is a lot more complicated than just being a dude-bro.

"hello burger lady!! tiny people. BOB."
THE SLOW HEAD TURN WHILE FISCHOEDER IS STARING AT THEM LMAOO he's such a freak. what is he doing
aww linda put a smiley face on the check thats so cute. "nooo i enjoyed it :)"
A BROTHERHOOD?? BLOOD OATH? love how louise hears this and immediately stands up she's like hello. hello im interested. PLEASE let me into your blood oath club mr fischoder
babalon like the ancient uhh. thing.
ooooh :0
(also my dad used to call my mom babalon among MANY other creative insults when they were married and this immediately brought that memory back to me. but he said it like babble-on like she was babbling. sorry idk why i wanted to share that)
"and the other members already picked all of the best chefs in town soo im asking you" i literally dont believe fischoeder lmao he definitely just wanted bob to come along as his personal chef and couldn't come up w/ a better excuse like. come on
"a billion dollars" "nope." "a million dollars" "no...." "a billion dollars :D" "she just said that"
i know bob is holding onto fischoeder's back bcuz he cant see but also its like. kinda intimate?? like?
also love bob's new jacket. these are the kinda things you only notice when you've watched WAAYY too many bob's burgers episodes but its a nice jacket :) the blue color suits him. and it has a hood
personally i would be a little more concerned that mr fischoeder only has one eye and it is NOT looking in the direction of the dangerous sharp cliff theyre walking beside. i know he's driven bob in his boat before but he's SOO BLIND WHY ARE YOU WILLINGLY GETTING IN A BOAT WITH HIM <- saying this as someone who doesn't really have vision in one eye or depth perception. i wouldnt give in a boat with myself driving either
"it was actually kinda fun to come up with!! i-i hope you like it :)" bob is so sweet im gonna cry. he's so excited about cooking SOMEONE LET HIM RANT ABOUT HIS SPECIAL INTEREST RIGHT NOW. he's in autism heaven
NOT THE TIKTOK MENTION 😭😭
recognize some of these guys from the gingerbread house episode which was another horrible experience for bob lmao
"can i keep hiiim? 🥺" what is his PROBLEM
WAS HE WORKING THE OMLETTE STATION AT YOUR LAST SEX PARTY??? <- brand new sentence
also this 100% confirms to me that fischoeder has had sex with every old ass man on this camping trip bcuz NO WAY he's getting rich old woman pussy im sorry. i do think he's bisexual but his sex parties are male-exclusive. he fucked those old men
not looking forward to whatever is going to happen to bob in this episode.
I ALWAYS FORGET FISCHOEDER IS LIKE A HARDCORE DRUG ADDICT remember that time he did mushrooms in s13 That would explain some things. that weren't already explained by the alcoholism
bob is surprisingly chill considering the circumstances and the fact that he's getting less than a thousand dollars of restaurant equipment out of this. i know he trusts fischoeder (for some reason i dont entirely understand) but being blindfolded and taken to a secret island with a bunch of rich old men and having NO CELL SIGNAL and everybody is drugged as hell.... he doesn't even know where he is..... GIRL RUN‼️‼️
also there's only one bed in fischoeder's tent which means there's either a seperate camping section for the chefs (unlikely) he expects bob to sleep outside in the storm (very likely) or bob and fischoeder are going to have to share a bed 👀👀 i know its probably not going to be addressed but i need somebody to write And There Was Only One Bed bob x fischoeder fanfic about this episode immediately. like that needs to happen
bob realizing that the chances of him dying on this camping trip are quickly reaching eighty or ninety percent ooh he's COOKED
"Don't wear brown and black. Never look into someone's eyes..." "Bring your own fork. And briefcase." "Of course. Everyone knows that." "And leave one of your shoes as a gift." "But you have to hide it..." gene and louise are SOO silly i love them so much. they play off each other so well its like a constant improv class
this subplot is Trying To Teach Tina Social Skills meanwhile gene and louise don't have them either they just dont give a fuck about learning them. well louise knows them she just disregards them. gene doesn't know ANYTHING
HAHAHA BOB REALIZING THEYRE LEAVING HIM THERE TO DIE. ITS NEVER BEEN MORE OVER love him not even acknowledging their crazy fire drug-induced dancing he's so used to this bullshit. bob should get a week off after this MINIMUM but we all know he loves cooking too much for that
NOT MR FISCHOEDERS GAY ASS HIP SHAKE?????????
mfw im the only sober person at a crazy drug party full of rich people on an island during a deadly storm and its only Tuesday. 😐
UH OH IS THE CORRECT RESPONSE. BOB REALIZES HES SO FUCKED
aww its kinda cute he's making sure that fischoeder is taken care of too and packing up all their things. dad instincts
at a certain point u kinda have to call him calvin dude. like you're WELL past "mr fischoeder" territory in this situation <- is also calling him mr fischoeder in this review
"shh he's hunting us" is probably NOT what bob wanted to hear
there's something about this that is sooo.....
in defense of bob he has almost died or been killed with fischoeder SEVERAL times before this episode including in the movie. its like a male bonding thing for them at this point
"and i invented a new way to tie a tie" I KNEW I WASNT CRAZY FOR THINKING THAT LOUISES TIE WAS TIED WRONG IN THAT SCREENSHOT i love that i picked up on that and felt the need to point it out. having never worn a tie before in my life (not to my knowledge at least)
this is literally what it feels like when ur autistic and trying to understand neurotypical social conventions. tina is trying SO HARD she's such a sweet girl :( its okay baby girl i understand i get it
THE BITEY GUY HAS A NAME BOB
am i allowed to say that bob with wet hair is kinda 👀👀🔥
why'd he kiss him like that ??
he's suuuch a sweetie in his oversized jacket <3
"No, no. Plants don't like sweet drinks!" "Just hard liquor?"
"dad is missing a WILD night" *hard cut to bob tied up and being used as a human sacrifice for cannibalism*
WHAT WAS RHAT. WHY DID CALVIN LOOK AT HIM LIKE THAT. YES IM USING HIS LEGAL FIRST NAME BCUZ WTF WAS THAT GAY ASS GUILTY LOOK?? HES NEVER BEEN GUILTY BEFORE he care so much about bob im gonna throw up. what the hell
HE LIIIKES HIM 😭 HE FELT GUILTY BCUZ HE LOVES AND CARES ABOUT BOB THIS IS SO FUCKED UP 😭😭💕
he probably also feels guilty that this is like the sixth time he's gotten bob into a near death situation. like at a certain point it starts to feel personal yknow
*howling* "god. i hate when he does that"
straight up on the verge of a meltdown. i dont even blame him tbh
bob isnt WRONG but also we are talking about a crazy drugged up cannibal who thinks he's a wild animal so maybe we could leave saving him until tomorrow morning? like idk i feel like he wouldnt exactly fit on their dingy. and even if he did what if he bites
"and you do have to come for ice cream!! it wont be any fun without you" okay thats kinda cute. this episode definitely kept up to pace with the insane homoerotic relationship between bob and fischoeder and im happy about that. almost gave us the tiniest hint into what fischoeder really feels/thinks about bob which. yeah
VERY UNHINGED EPISODE BUT REALLY FUN AND CUTE?? everything between bob and fischoeder was so. soo. yknow. and the subplot was funny and cute too :) very sweet little episode i always love when they go off on adventures like w/ teddy in sea me now. and of course their (many many) near death experiences together thats truly what its all about baby!!! really enjoyed this episode it was exactly the right amount of unhinged and funny

stewy with a daddy kink :0 ahhhhh pls
stewy would 10000000% have a daddy/degradation kink like he would be mean in bed.
this is absolutely 100 thousand percent extremely filthy NSFW you have been warned.
meeting him and you’re a bit younger than him and he’s pretty much your boyfriend-slash-sugar daddy (neither of you are quite sure what label your little arrangement falls under.
but he takes you on expensive trips and buys you pretty lingerie and yes he’s nice when he takes you out to dinner. he’ll even hold your hand even though he’d usually abhor the idea.
but as soon as you’re back at whatever ultra-expensive vacation home he has rented for just the two of you, he’s ripping your clothes off and kissing you, his hands slapping your ass hard.
you whimper and he smiles, a big, flashy genuine smile, as he yanks your hair back, his little code for open your fucking mouth.
“are you gonna swallow daddy’s spit?” he asks, pulling your bottom lip down with his thumb.
you nod, before remembering you need to use your words. “yes daddy, of course.” you look up at him through heavy eyelashes and his cock twitches in his once-clean linen pants.
he spits in your mouth, but not in the slow, sensual way. it’s rough, like he’s using you, like you’re below him, his little subject, his little slut.
he slaps your cheek. not too hard, just enough to make the skin sting with splotches of red. you’re embarrassingly soaked for him.
your pupils are blown wide, a black hole swallowing the hue of your irises, tucked away for later. your hierarchy of needs is dominated by stewy, his hands on your head, his cock in your mouth.
you swallow as he pushes you to your knees, making sure you’re on the plushness of an ivory rug, ticklish on the balls of your kneecaps.
his hands tug on your hair, gathering it into a makeshift ponytail as he slaps the silky head of his cock against your tongue.
you reach out to stroke him; he’s long and thick, his cock a deep tan and you need him.
but as your fingertips graze the base of him, he yanks your hair. “i didn’t say you could touch.”
you nod. “sorry daddy,”
his thumbs rub circles on your cheeks; he loves how you look up at him, completely at his mercy, legs shaking from your arousal, lips swollen from rough kisses and the tingle of leftover cocaine soaked into his gums.
“such a fucking slut.” he says. his tone is syrupy sweet and juxtaposes what he’s saying. “aren’t you?“
you stand up as he yanks your wrist, pushing you onto the couch and kneeing your legs apart. lifting your dress up, he repeats himself.
“aren’t. you.”
“yes, i’m your slut.” you look back at him and he grabs your jaw, kissing you roughly. the hair of his beard tickles your neck, burns.
he unzips your dress, pushing it down your body. his hands tweak your nipples, run down the expanse of your spine, slap your ass harshly. you’re shaking for him; your panties are soaked and when he cups your cunt, he gasps.
“so fucking wet. why is your pussy so wet?” he asks, pushing your panties aside. his thumb rubs over your slit before pushing inside. “so pathetic how easy you are.”
“for you, daddy.”
“better be.”
and then he slams inside you, one hand holding your waist, the other around your throat as he pounds into your cunt. the sounds are obscene; you’re both sweaty from the summer heat, the perpetual humidity of the ocean leaving a sheen of salt and sleepiness upon your skin.
stewy doesn’t praise you during sex all too often. but it’s usually when he’s about to cum, his head buried into your neck that he coos in your ear.
his hands find your ass, grabbing and kneading the flesh.
“good girl. my good fucking girl.”
you yelp as he spanks you, leaving swollen hatch marks of red on your pillowy skin.
“you want me to fill you up?” he asks, his strokes slowing down, just to tease you.
“y—yes. please, daddy.”
“or maybe i wanna cum on your face like the fucking whore you are.”
you scream as he picks up the pace again, his fingers reaching down to play with your clit.
he pulls out, flipping you around as he strokes himself over your face. ropes of his cum paint your cheeks, your forehead, the sweaty sheen of your hairline.
and he doesn’t even wipe it off before he throws your legs over his shoulders and spits on your aching cunt.
#ask#succession#stewy hosseini#stewy hosseini smut#he is canonically so mean when he fucks you im sorry

This is my basic ‘Dazai translation’ guide.
* If he presents you with a longwinded, completely logical argument for something batshit that just happened - that’s a half truth. (Which is to say - yes, he probably did factor in all that...but it’s not the only reason shit went down exactly the way it did.)
* If he’s playing the clown, he’s straight up lying to you. The reasons may be harmless or they may be quite serious, but what you’re seeing is 0% fact.
* If he’s talking about suicide and there’s an actual means to do what he’s talking about right there, he is having an actual ‘my depression monsters are eating my brain’ Bad Day at that moment and his thinking is skewed.
* If he’s talking about suicide and an actual means to do what he’s talking about is not immediately present, he mostly just wants you to piss off/ignore him/stop talking.
* If it looks at first glance like he just tried (and failed) to die again, he did. Any and all logical explanations why “it’s not what it looks like” are at best half-truths. The primary goal of the explanation is to deflect the conversation away from concern about the attempt, his mental health, and himself in general. Any actions where you might find yourself thinking “yeah, but you couldn’t possibly have known for sure that xyz would happen to save your life” falls into this category.
* If he’s talking about double suicide with a woman, it’s a half-truth. (I’m pretty sure if she said yes he’d go with her - but I’m also pretty sure he’s well aware she’ll say no, and he’s got a secondary reason in play for when she does.)
* If he says he’s messing with you, he probably is - but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s also lying. That’s a separate check.
* If he says he’s lying...he actually isn’t. He’s just covering for saying something he regards as a bit too revealing, or something he’s just realized he doesn’t want to talk about. The more he makes such a statement look like ‘of course I was lying’, the more he really doesn’t want to discuss whatever it was.
* If he says, “I never lie in [situation that applies right now]”, this is both a sign that whatever he has just told you is 100 percent factual, and that you should go over it with a fine-toothed comb for whatever he’s left out. Dazai is truthful more often than many realize, but he is rarely honest. When he says shit like this, he may be on the level. He may just as easily be using the truth to deceive.
* Dazai will generally mess with anyone and everyone when the mood takes him, but 90 percent of the time it’s not actually going to hurt his target any, and any embarrassment will be minor and temporary. The other ten percent is divided equally between “gods, you’re just the eternal perfect target” (Kunikida) and “seriously, just disappear or die, I really don’t care which” aggravation (Chuuya). You can tell the difference between this last ten percent and everyone else in that the last ten percent can be shamed/embarrassed. Only if he’s truly Aggravated at you do the ‘pranks’ have a shot at doing genuine harm, however.
* Lastly, but possibly most importantly, all of these conditions can stack - that is, more than one of them can be in play at any given specific moment.

you're the author and the story is in your hands, and I hope you can write the story you like
just a heads up that whatever I list here is a personal opinion and in no way indicates how others may feel about this. I don't want to be seen as someone who speaks for the majority because I do not engage with IF community at all except sending an ask or two per month anonymously.
i personally feel like if Z/MC/V poly will have all of stats you mentioned it will simply be near impossible to enter (which is really discouraging cause there's very few poly routes in games). I can see at least optimistic and Impulsive personality stats in that post being the ones go check, which is literally half of MCs personality stats already.
plus, you mentioned that route locks will be early in game, when the stats a very much unstable. you make one choice and you're suddenly flung to the other end of the stat bar.
I already dislike personality stats in IFs, so ig my ask is pretty much biased already. I don't like having to go to the stat menu in games at all cause that just breaks the immersion for me. its one thing to check your combat stat once every few chapters to see if you have a chance to beat up a guy and the other is having to check every single choice you make in the stat screen to make sure you won't accidentally lock yourself out of the routes you're interested in just cause you wanted MC to have one more scar/not be a brooding mess/show less emotion in this segment.
idk if you're going for that too, but I can't see stat locked routes being that replayable (unless someone wants to reread what they've read before), because the more stat checks it takes the more MC feels like literally the same person in the route replay. wanting to explore a different choice which was decided to give some personality bonus will possibly make you unable to enter the route at all because one number/a couple of percents on the stats were a bit too low/high for that character to see you as an option.
also with injuries being a thing I feel like poly route will be cutting off the possibility of players to explore more about this feature cause we will have to be avoiding it to not be impulsive/needed to be protected.
I have no idea how the code works for you, but the only compromise I can really see is making more flavor text based on mcs personality, making ROs a bit more judgmental towards an MC with the stat they don't like. that for me makes more sense than just making a whole 180 from being optimistic to being a cynic because V said they don't like that in MCs. also that feels like MCs is being actively put through "Not everyone will cater to you" (which is a nice thing to explore btw, I have nothing against it as long as it isn't literally making the player have to worry about every single choice they make) while ROs are literally fine with reshaping MCs personality just so they can see them romantically.
tldr: the decision is yours to make as an author. persinal opinion is that having stat checks on routes feels discouraging, makes the routes less repayable, having to monitor your stats is really immersion breaking, and poly potentially locks us out of exploring an in-game function.
Hi honeybee!
Firstly, thank you for expressing your opinion in such a respectful way, I appreciate it.
A clarification on the stat checks! So the current stat list is as follows:
Physical Status: Health: 0-100
Skills (will increase or decrease by increments of 5, 3, 2,
Combat:
Science/Technology:
Charisma/People:
Deduction/Perception:
Medical:
Alien Knowledge:
Personality: (depends on interactions with people)
Friendly or Stoic
Charming or Intimidating
Passive or Stubborn
Genuine or Sarcastic
Traits: (depends on actions/decisions)
Violent or Merciful
Selfish or Selfless
Optimistic or Cynical
Cautious or Impulsive
All stats start off at 50 (except for skills, those will start lower depending on what you choose your major to be). The stat checks will not be difficult by any stretch of the imagination. As long as you stay consistent with the type of skilled MC you're playing, you'll pass 99% of them. (Example being, if your MC is combat oriented with low science/tech, then if you pick the science based decision, you're more likely to fail that)
I'm not big on constantly checking stats myself. Failures in stat checks will allow you to try again for a better outcome, and failures in that may lead to a non-fatal injury of yourself or someone else.
Within the first few chapters, you'll have many opportunities to increase or decrease personality and trait stats. When I say you'd be locked out of the poly or C's route, that would mean that by chapter 4, you might have an MC that is above 70 in Optimistic and Friendly (for the poly) or below 30 for Friendly and above 70 for Selfish for C.
To get your stats that high, you would need to choose a lot of options that align with those traits. Like...80% of the choices you make have to align with those traits.
I think I've written the stat checks to be more complicated/intense than they are. The game itself is pretty linear in terms of major events that occur. You can't "fail" the overall missions. You won't have to check and double check your stats; make decisions that feel real for your MC and everything will be fine! MC's personality affects how they react to things, how they interact with other people and how people view them.
I hope this offers some clarification, anon.
All my love,
Cheye

oh no :’( why not?
Few things. I’ve noticed that (not all, just a small percent) of those that I do prompts for don’t even end up ‘liking’ their one shot. Which not gonna lie is a bit disappointing since I might’ve really struggled with it and just pushed through purely for that person.
But mainly because the last few times I’ve struggled with doing some of the prompts. Some are quite samey and it just gets difficult. Don’t get me wrong there some amazing prompts too though!
Also I just don’t have the same time to write as I used to… out of the darkness I’m still excited about and still working on and will continue to. I do have ideas for a sequel for losing control that I hope I will start on soon.
But aside from those two ‘projects’ I’m not sure what else I’ll do or if I will do anything else. I might end up taking a break, or still writing the one off short things here and there but likely not as much as I have been.
I don’t feel the fandom is as active as it used to be. I’m hoping when Loki 2 comes out it might get more active again? I dunno it just feels flat now compared to how it used to. And whilst I do write for myself because I enjoy it, I used to write a lot more because there was more interaction. I’m lucky if I get an ask a week nowadays tbh and people rarely comment on AO3 anymore so the inspiration kind of dwindles.
Hence why addicting temptations may seem rushed because I wasn’t ‘feeling’ it the same and wasn’t getting much feedback for it etc like I used to with older fics that I’d continue more for the readers than myself. So addicting temptations I just wanted to ‘finish’ and round off in the way I wanted it to. Luckily out of the darkness I’m loving writing it and don’t care if it got 0 notes or whatever.
So what I’m saying is I’m probably going to be posting a lot less but what I do post is purely for myself now and I’m just sharing it with everyone.
It might change in a few weeks or months who knows. But yeah. 🤷♀️

So, this is me. And you're probably asking yourself, how did I get myself into this situation, right?
Let's start with an introduction. My name's Vinnie. Or Vin. Or, if you're one of my moms, Davina. Yeah, their sense of humor is outstanding. Don't get it? Trust me, you will. See, one of my moms, she's (lovingly) a joy sucking control freak who is probably the most prolific mass murderer to ever walk the earth -- and the other one's a demon. Get it? Davina? Divine.
Yeah. Anyways, enough about them, let's talk about me. Like I said, you can call me Vinnie. For all intents and purposes you could say I'm your average teenager, except in reality, I'm actually about as un-average as can be. Yes. I know that's not a word. Sue me. I've actually only been around for like a year or two but there's this thing that happens when you're made from primordial and antediluvian and predates the creation of the universe magic soup, and I kinda went from 0 to 60 in like a month. And no, I'm not like that one creepy animatronic doll baby from that one book series that nobody likes to admit they read.
As for what I actually am, honestly your guess is as good as mine. I hit puberty at about six weeks and then everything just kinda ground to a fucking halt, a real fuck you from the universe or powers that be or whatever. I'm a gender. Or no gender. Or all the genders. Really just kinda depends on the day. I sleep. I bleed. I eat. My skin's not made outta rock candy or anything creepy like that. I heal, though, like -- so far, from just about everything and anything. And my blood's not normal. Looks normal enough, but again -- reference the whole, primordial soup magic thing, so - I'm told it'd be an item of 'unimaginable power and value' on the black market of the fucked up beyond belief side of things but good luck with that cause I not only learned how to fight from one of the baddest bitches in the world, but I can kill you with my brain.
Well. In theory. Still don't really know what all I can and can't do with the cosmic power I'm tapped into cause it kinda has this tendency to go weird when I try to use it. Demon mom says that's thanks to control freak mom's side of the gnarly lineage tree. Not a hundred percent sure what that means, but I do know that she pretty much always goes to the literal opposite side of the world if she's got some of her voodoo to do that she wants to do what it's actually supposed to.

Each time you do this ask game I scroll through you oc tag because I can't decide on your blorbos, hope I didn't spend too much time on it kljsdhfksd xD This time maybe Xenophin reacting to Strongspark? Or if you feel like it a different oc can react too!
Strongspark was found after the war in some forgotten by Primus place. There must've dropped some radioactive bomb or sth that fucked up the place and everyone in it. Most died, some turned into mindless monsters... and a few protoforms got messed up mid-creation. Sparky was the only survivor as he ended up close to an energy source.
Years later ex-autobot Morphine and ex-decepticon TerrorRain were supposed to check out the place and see if it can be used. They killed what tried to kill them and then Morph found the messed up pile of crying parts that had more determination in the fragile spark than the depressed medic. Morph started caring for the little guy despite the many conditions others would consider fatal.
After many ups and downs Sparky was somewhat functional. Tiny, not much bigger than a human. Blind with no optics to see, constantly distressed, for a long time it was uncertain if he can even hear. Many said it'd be more merciful to let him die. Terry defended him only 'cuz that was Morph's only thing able to make his optics glow with determination.
Eventually after a lot of work, surgeries and rehabilitation turns out that Strongspark can hear and understand. He also learns to speak tho he can't comunicate much more than a human kindergarten kid.
But he understands and sees much more. He may not have optics but he can see ghosts and souls and sparks. "Pretty glow!" is something MiniMint heard from him a lot. ":0!! Bright!" Morphine hears when smiling. "Hmm. Not hap." Sparky says when he sees someone hiding their feelings under a fake smile.
He has trouble comunicating with the world but anyone patient enough and willing to listen can notice that he's more than a pile of scrap metal with malfunctioning processor. Despite his disabilities he's more than willing to live the life he got!
Xenophin's lantern would 100% get his interest and calm him down when he's distressed. He would also notice the ghosts in his frame. He'd say "oh! lots." Morphine would explain that some Xen's friends or family who passed away must still hang around and care for him if Spark can see more than one person in the place where only Xen stands.
Xenophin would be fascinated. He isn’t the social type so it’s very likely that Spark is the one to run into him (in his little obscure and ornate looking library). When he does, he’d see the otherworldly mist leaking from his seams, as well as a couple of spirits surrounding him at his desk (not many are able to permanently create an incorporeal form, only ~three who compose the largest percent of Xenophin’s frame. the rest are voices of varying volume). He’d also be able to notice that the other emanates a strong aura of death, like he has been around it for a large part of his life—or, at the very least, one pivotal moment in which an insurmountable number of deaths happened.
I’m sure it wouldn’t take a lot for them to notice that both of them can see ghosts, though unfortunately Xen wouldn’t be able to see any beyond his own. Xen would brighten up considerably, curiously; there is someone else who has this… blessing? Curse? Whatever Mortilus deems it as. He’d want to know if Spark has made any sense of why he has the ability he has, and the answer would determine how content he is with it. But, at the end of the day, he’d walk away a little satisfied that he’s not alone.
The spirits in his plating would be curious too, some wary, some unsure of what they’re seeing.

WIP: fake dating idiots to lovers
[In which Kiryu and Majima have to convince basically the whole Kamurocho criminal underworld they're a couple for Reasons. Probably seriously canon noncompliant because I haven't even finished 0 yet but look at all the fucks I give. look at them.]
The living-in-sin issue is just one of the many little unexpected hoops they have to jump through to sell their shtick and the first one that leads to them almost dropping the whole thing and throwing hands right there on the dance floor of a gay bar is:
"Ferfucksake," Majima hisses as they slide into a corner booth with a good view of the door. "You gotta call me literally fuckin' anything but 'Majima-san' in public."
"He caught me off guard, all right? I just… fine. What should I call you?"
"I dunno? What do you call a girl you're going out with?" The silence and the breaking of eye contact say more than Majima ever wanted to know. "Are you shittin' me?"
"What?"
"That ain't the kind of question that needs this much figurin' out, is it? I know you’re up to your eyeballs in pussy, you gotta have at least one cute nickname on deck, right?"
"It's not--I'm not really--"
What the fuck is Kiryu's deal right now? He's not like, turning red or disappearing under the table or anything but going by what Majima knows about him, he's about as flustered as he ever gets.
Why, though? What about this conversation is getting under his skin enough to…
Oh.
Oh ho ho ho.
"Well, fuck me runnin'." Him? Nah. No way. But still… shit, that'd explain a lot, wouldn't it? "Don't tell me you really are gay."
Majima regrets this the second it's out of his mouth.
He has some room to talk, but not much. His sex drive might be mostly kaput right now, but he still likes to look at pretty girls. He also still likes to look at hot guys. It's kind of an open secret. Nobody talks about it to his face, but he's pretty sure anyone who knows him well enough knows why he goes to the video club with the secret menu, the one whose owner realized there was a whole untapped goldmine out there and that goldmine was horny for guys.
He doesn't care who knows, not really. Honestly, if someone's seen his whole Lord of the Night bit and still thought ah yes that right there is a one hundred percent heterosexual man, well, that's on them. If they know they're either cool about it or they're smart enough to not give him shit about it to his face and as for the rare few who aren't smart enough… let's just say it's never been anyone he couldn't deal with. But up to this point it hasn't even occurred to him that Kiryu might also be something other than straight and he kind of feels like an asshole for making a big deal out of it.
(Don't get him wrong. Majima is an asshole. He knows he's an asshole. He doesn't pretend he's not. But being an asshole about that kind of stuff is out of bounds even for him.)
"Shit. Okay. Sorry. I go both ways myself, for what it’s worth, but I'm just saying--"
"I like girls too," Kiryu says, not in that weird defensive way some less secure bi dudes do but just as, like, a statement of something that ought to be obvious. "I just don't get to the cute nickname stage. With anyone."
"Okay. That's fine. I get it. But you still gotta lose the fuckin' formality. We're supposed to be livin' in sin here and the shackin' up stage is way past the cute nickname stage, y'know?" Oh good, here comes a waiter. Perfect opportunity. "Hey, look. Just let me do the talking, huh?"
Kiryu rolls his eyes and says something Majima can't hear over the music but guesses is something like whatever, do what you want. So he does.
"Good evening, gentlemen!" the waiter chirps. "What are we drinking tonight?" He's young and cute and his enthusiasm is infectious. At least, Majima thinks as he glances back at his very uncomfortable fake boyfriend, it's infectious to some people at this table.
Majima beams back at the kid. "What's good in the single malt department tonight?" He almost calls the waiter babe and bites that off at the last second because he does not want to have A Conversation about it. The waiter rattles off a well-rehearsed list of brands. He knows his shit. He's getting a nice tip tonight. "How 'bout the Suntory for me and… what'cha drinking, honey?"
Kiryu doesn't say anything. Majima ever so gently kicks his foot under the table. "Uh… Suntory's fine… nii-san."
Majima feels a little bit of his soul leave his body. "He's got a, uh… fetish kinda… thing."
"What!?" Kiryu chokes out. Majima kicks his foot again, a little harder. "I don't--"
The waiter, who probably isn't getting paid anywhere near enough for this, bows and goes off to fetch their drinks. "Okay!” Majima says as soon as the waiter is out of earshot. “Lemme rephrase that. Anything but 'Majima-san' or fuckin' 'nii-san!' Shit on a stick, are you tryin' to get us clocked here!?"
"I don't have a fetish!"
"Well, how the hell else am I supposed to explain it when you say it all formal and shit? It's that, or the truth, or 'we're actual literal brothers hanging out in a gay bar together' and no, death is not an option!"
"You could have just not said anything."
Majima opens his mouth to counter that. Thinks about it. Closes it again.
He could, in fact, have just not said anything.
Their waiter probably hears weirder shit than nii-san on the hourly, after all. "Not the point," he says instead, because like hell is he going to admit Kiryu is right about this right now.
"Then what the hell do you want me to call you?"
"Just…" Majima throws his hands up. "How 'bout 'Goro-chan?' Can you try that?"
Kiryu looks at him like he'd said how 'bout you go play in traffic and in his defense, that sentiment was probably at least kind of there.
"Fine. Goro… " Kiryu makes a face like he just swallowed a pin bone in a bite of fish. "…chan."
"Okay." Majima nods and wishes the waiter would hurry it up because he is way too sober for this bullshit right now. "Great. That's a start. We'll work on making it sound a little less like 'fuck you' later but hey. Good job, honey."
"Can you not call me ‘honey?’ It just feels… weird."
"Oh. Sorry, babe."
"Yeah, no, that's not any better--"
"Sweetie."
"Stop it!"
"Pumpkin."
"I'm not talking to you anymore."
"Good! 'Cause I'm not shutting up, darlin'."
"Ah--excuse me?"
Majima glances up into the beaming faces of a young couple that was sitting a few booths away. College-age guys, both kind of tall and slim, joined at the hip, grinning like idiots. One of them has bleach-blonde hair. "Can we help ya?"
"Sorry to interrupt," the blonde says, "and I know this is kind of uh, personal but we were just wondering… how long have you guys been together?"
Oh, thank fuckin' God. Something they have a script for. "About a month," Kiryu says.
“What!?” the blonde exclaims.
“No way,” the unbleached one gasps.
And ah shit, Majima thinks, they are not buying it.
"Wow," the blonde kid finally says. "We figured longer.”
"…do what now?" Majima sputters, because he cannot possibly have heard that right.
“Yeah. Like… a lot longer."
"Like, years," the blonde kid says, nodding. "You remind me of my parents. It is so sweet. They bicker all day but like… you can still tell they're totally in love. They've been married for, God, gotta be like forty years now!"
"That's great, kid." Majima squeezes his eye shut and pinches the bridge of his nose and feels another little piece of his soul float away as he tries not to think about being stuck with this chucklehead for the next forty years. "Real happy for 'em."

week two of #got7revival: fave era
visually: JayB's Piercing Era
this was the first look and the first couple of pictures I've ever seen of Jaebeom, and although I wasn't present yet when it happened, mentally I'm still there and I cannot wait for him to maybe at least get his nose pierced again. YOU GUYS WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAS HAPPENED!! I've seen the posts of non-ahgase asking who the "piercing guy in GOT7" was, and I wish I had already been a kpop fan at that time, but alas. ( the long hair is a very pretty bonus, too!! )

week one of #got7revival: bias & wrecker
bias: Jaebeom & Youngjae
jaebeom was the first member of GOT7 I found while looking for faceclaims for my fantasy novel about one and a half years ago ( march 2021 ) ; he got me and a friend into kpop and the rest is history. I love this weird cat guy ( affectionate ) with his twin moles and the utter passion and leadership he always brings to the table. I also adore that he talks about his depression and anxiety so relatively openly. he wouldn't need to, and yet he does, and I respect that a lot. it makes even me feel better about myself, and I thought I had a really good grip on mine.
once I knew the members and had gotten familiar with their character and all, I started gravitating towards youngjae as well. I sometimes wonder whether he wouldn't have been my ( actual / only ) bias in GOT7 if a) jaebeom wasn't so very special to me that it feels wrong to switch biases, and b) I had already known the members when I had gotten into GOT7, or if GOT7 hadn't been my very first group and I had already been much more familiar with how groups worked and all that. he's 97 percent shy, innocent maknae, and 3 percent a wicked minx who nobody can be mad at and I love that for him.
the bottom line is that I bias them both and they seem to be okay with having shared custody, if you wanna call it that. I'm calling it that now.
btw, I always consider those people the bias that I have a soft spot for, who I relate to on a personality level, who make me feel all warm and cozy when I watch them do their thing — and the wrecker is the one that just wrecks me with their visuals or voice or whatever it is. I can't look at them for long because that's overwhelming because they're so v attractive ( not saying my biases aren't, but the wreckers just take a bat and swing it at me, while the biases just don't cause that reaction in my brain ) idk, I hope this makes sense, but I've heard people describe biases as the ones that are in "first place" and the wreckers are trying to dethrone them and that's just not my definition of it. kakdif no hate tho! just wanted to explain that.

not to be a nerd on main about this, but we should stop transcribing 형 / 누나 and 오빠* / 언니 as bro / sis. linguistically they have very different connotations and it's kinda driving me up a wall as someone who's very invested and interested in languages, like, I do realize that especially casual watchers of like kdramas, who just started getting into them after Netflix or whomever added a bunch of them to their library, don't really care and that's totally fine with me! it's a considerably small thing, and if you just wanna watch something without diving into the language or culture or anything, then you're totally free to, that's valid, honestly
just. that's not what those words mean, connotation-wise and every time I read "bro!" or "sis!" in Netflix's or even YT's subtitles I die a bit inside.
obviously I'm not Korean and if anyone who speaks the language well / lives in Korea and is well familiar with when those are used, wants to weigh in, feel absolutely free to!
but to break it down briefly, those are honorifics attached to a person's name if they're older than you, but not, like, significantly. older students, older colleagues at work if you're a bit more friendly with them, friends, and ( your actual ) siblings. they are normal and do not immediately imply you view the other person as a sort of sibling from another parent.
yes, they do basically translate to "older brother" / "older sister", but transcribing it with "bro" and "sis" respectively has an entirely different impact than what they are actually supposed to infer. it's a polite suffix, that can in certain situations also imply trust or a more intimate relationship, because otherwise ( especially outside of a school context ) you'd use 씨 ( shee ) after their name. just that nobody especially in a school context does that because they use 형 ( hyeong / hyung ) / 누나 ( noona ) and 오빠* ( oppa ) / 언니 ( eonnie / unnie ) — former is used by males and latter by females, both times to address an older 'brother' / an older 'sister' respectively — either alone or after their name.
the companion piece is adding 아 or 야 (-a for names with a consonant at the end or -ya for those with a vowel ) to the names of people younger than you ( or those you're close with ) — and for example in All Of Us Are Dead they do that all the time and it's not transcribed by cutesy-fying their names is it now. they just put their names into the subtitles and move on.
I personally think it'd be much better to simply use you in any other sentence and if some character yells 형! across the room in distress, to transcribe it with the other character's name for emphasis. that's for me personally the closest, connotation-wise.
or, you know, have hyeong / noona / eunnie / oppa* in the transcript / subtitles in italics and explain it with some translator annotation the first time it appears alone. but that's generally an issue with subtitles on such platforms I feel. they remove words when creating the subtitles and leave out such nuances because gods forbid they'd force casual viewers to pause the show to read the annotations akskdkf. either way,
tl;dr they don't use teen slang in kdramas all the time even if the subtitles would have you believe otherwise and it's probably a problem that stems from companies thinking they can't "bother" their customers with having to pause to read, but I think that's simply taking away important context to a depicted story and I'd really like it to stop, thank you.
*oppa is a bit special because it is also used as a sort of term of endearment by women towards their boyfriends, or like, when they flirt with them pre-relationship, so it can also imply a romantic interest, be mindful of that. but I'd assume then it'd be transcribed with some sort of babe or honey or something.

Is Affiliate Marketing Profitable
Affiliate marketing seems by many people as a waste of time or scummy and frat business. In this post I will show the pros & cons and by the end of reading this post you will exactly be informed about affiliate marketing.
As my own journey to affiliate marketing, I will show youreasons why affiliate marketing is not waste of time and will show you some tips and tricks to be successful affiliate marketer.
Some people talk about affiliate marketing is waste of time because they do not have any knowledge about affiliate marketing..
Is Affiliate marketing waste of time
The answer is not. affiliate marketing has been used as a business for many years some people do not understand affiliate marketing what real is. in this post I will show you what is affiliate marketing.
Affiliate marketing: is promoting others product or service which you do not own, and you will make money whenever you refer a customer to buy a product or service.
As a affiliate marketer you are the middle man between a company and customeryour job is to promote that product to your customer and get paid from a company.
As an example: I have audience on the internet on my blog or social media followers and I want to make money from this traffic what I am going to do is to find a relevant product or service in my niche or area to promote their product and service to my audience.
let’s learn some benefits of affiliate marketing.
Why affiliate marketing is not waste of time
Many people believe that affiliate marketing is waste of time because it takes too much time and effort to get started. However, affiliate marketing can very profitable if you know what you are doing.
The key is to find products that are not too competitive and offer good commission.
Affiliate marketing is the best way to make money online even you do not have knowledge, money and website or blog. People make with affiliate marketing as their own business they make thousands of dollars every month becauseit is a real business model.
10 reasons why people want to start affiliate marketing:
Does not require money
No skill requires
Can be started as a side hustle
Best online business for students
No degree requires
Affiliate marketing can help you earn money without limitation
You do not loss anything
Make money passively while you are sleeping
Do not need to deal with your audience to buy a product
Noting is scummy
Can you make money as a beginner with affiliate marketing?
Yes, but if you do it correctly. in this section I will show you the secret way to make money with affiliate marketing.
The first step is topick your nichewhich has very low competition and the best way to pick your niche is by doing and finding new products to write a review that’s brand new and no one is talking about.
Best products to write reviews about is digital products because it pays recurring commission and in the other hand physical products pays per each sale that has been made by your costumer or they pay 1 – 10 percent recurring commission which is low.
you can find new products on capterra.com and find the product and software that you are interested on. To find a prefect product or service in capterra.com you need to focus on two main things:
high volume
Low competition
Has low CPC ($0 – 1$)
After find product on capterra.com then search each product on google to find the volume and low competition product.
Can you start affiliate marketing without money?
Affiliate marketing is promoting others product to your audience that audience might be from your Blog, Forum, landing page or PPC and all these staff require money. But here is the truth you can still make money with affiliate marketing without money and without having blog, forum etc.
the first step is to create a content for example write an article in whatever niche you are, focus on the quality of your content not on quantity. Write valuable content that everyone will love it and make a parches through your affiliate link.
Next step is to apply for affiliate programs that’s relevant to your niche, but the problem might be you do not get approval in the program.
do not warry you can sign up toinstant approval affiliate programsthat require nothing likeJavzoo,digitastor24andcj there are a lot of affiliate marketplaces out there that you can join.
The next step is to publish your content on the internet I do not mean to spam all over the internet like pasting your affiliate links in Facebook without any valuable content or in Instagram and so on.
you do not make money by just writing a piece of content and that publish it on the internet you make money by solving others problem like reviewing a particular product or service and then you are publishing it on your Facebook page, Instagram and Tumbr etc.
My advice for you is to have a blog because people are searching on google for products to buy in the other hand social media is not like google, they are not searching for products to buy but you have still a chance if you do prefect marketing.
Affiliate marketing can’t be profitable if
1.do not have audience
Affiliate marketing is all about promotingproduct if you do not have audience then who will buy from you when you do not have audience.
Those who do not have audience on website or social media platform where they are going to promote affiliate links.
most people fail because they spam, they just paste the link in comments or share it on social media platforms without giving any value to their content.
That’s why they called it is waste of time and effort, do not spam. Spamming is unethical and unprofessional practice that should be avoided at all costs. Spamming is the best way to get band your account on the internet.
2.Can’t rank in competitive niches
In this part we will be discussing why you can’t rank in competitive niche for three reasons:
The first reason is that the competition is too high. There are so many other websites that are competing for the same keyword and there is all vying for a higher ranking than you.
The second reason is that your website does not have enough content to compete with the other websites out there. you need more content to give people what they want in order to rank higher in search engine results pages.
The third reason is that you can’t rank because you do not have enough backlinks, for competitive niches it is much hard to earn backlinks.
You can’t rank for competitive niches like the best software for YouTube, when you are just starting you only have to fucose on one specific topic.
3.Creating Low quality-contents
Creating low quality contentwill lead you to nothing and spam, whatever niche you are in there is a lot of good information out there if you do not create unique and better content than your competition than no one will like your content.
