With how I'm planning my fics, since Menelaus and Agamemnon spend some years at Tyndarius' palace, I kind of have them all be childhood friends in a way before Agamemnon and Menelaus take back their kingdom (Aga is around 19, Menelaus 15 when they leave. 5-6 years later they get married.) With how their marriages work out when talking about "Old times", Odysseus is the "odd one out" as he was the only one who didn't grow up alongside them. The poor guy is left out.
Odysseus: "Wait, why is everyone laughing? What does that mean? I don't get it." Penelope: "Well you see-" Goes on about a silly story but the inside joke is dumb. "...You probably would've had to have been there to get it" Odysseus:

Portgas D. Ace — Kind Of, Maybe
PAIRING: Portgas D. Ace/Reader WORD COUNT: 4.1k TYPE: Friends to Lovers, Fluff & Humor, a little Pining, Modern AU WARNING(S): Drunken shenanigans at one point, Reader is a dangerous driver (inspired by my friend who has almost done in almost all of us), A few NSFW jokes
It’s not often that Ace is the more sensible one or the less idiotic one. After he came back from a trip overseas, however, you were unfortunately the only one who was available to pick him up from the airport. He’s never been in your car before, but he has heard Sabo’s horror stories about your driving. Sabo banned Luffy from driving with you when he alarmingly claimed it sounded like fun, but he never banned Ace from being your passenger, and sometimes Ace wonders if Sabo even cares about him.
Yes, he’s a grown ass man and Sabo can’t ban him from anything, and yes he’s being melodramatic, but those are just semantics.
He’s spacing out contemplating this grave danger he’s in, not paying attention to you until your voice brings him out from his stupor. You still have one hand around the wheel while you’re holding up your phone with the other. “Yeah man, that’s my order. Hey, Ace, what flavor of pizza do you want?”
“Eyes on the road!” he cries, realizing you’ve turned to look at him.
“Eyes on the road, I don’t think that’s a flavor. Oh, wait, he’s talking about me,” you say, looking ahead again. “Ok, you can make it a veggie then.”
“You know I don’t like that one,” he says, glaring at you. You’ve gotta be doing it on purpose.
You roll your eyes in annoyance. “He’s such a diva. Change the veggie to a barbecue. Ok, thanks. Love you.”
“Why are you telling the pizza person you love them?”
“I have no idea,” you say, throwing your phone to the backseat.
“You’re a very dangerous person, you know that?” asks Ace.
With a flick of your hand, you dismiss his concerns and take a turn. Through a suspicious squint, Ace vaguely recalls these streets, but they don’t lead to his and his brothers’ house.
“You’re going in the wrong direction.”
“I thought we’re going to my house,” you say.
“Why would we be going there?”
“To eat, moron.”
Ace doesn’t even remember agreeing to this — probably because you didn’t bother asking him if he wants any — but he sighs and gives in without a word since you already ordered for him, too, and it’s not like he would’ve denied your invitation in the first place. Instead he chooses to change the subject.
“Does your car have a name?” he blurts out.
“What?”
“You seem like the kinda douche who’d have a car named Becky or something.”
“Shut up,” you say, reaching out to punch him in the shoulder, but try to concentrate on driving again before he starts wailing about his ‘safety’ and how you guys are going to ‘die.’ “If my car had a name, it’d be something cool like Orgasmtron-3000.”
He snorts at you, eyes crinkling at your stupidity. “Pfft. That’s lame and you know it.”
“You wouldn’t get it,” you declare with a flippant hand gesture before you turn up your nose like a snob. Ace really wishes you’d watch the damn road, but the scenery becomes more familiar the longer the drive goes on. Somehow the two of you are still intact by the time you pull up near your apartment complex.
He’s only ever swung by your place for late night parties and his memories of those times are foggy at best. Now, it’ll be different: 1. Both of you will be sober, and 2. The other borderline alcoholics won’t be there to keep you company. The thought makes him a little nervous suddenly, even though he knows it’s silly. It’s just you. And he survived the ride so it’s a tad too late to be stressed.
“Soo, how was your trip?” you ask once you’ve both made it inside the elevator.
“Fun at times, not so fun at others,” he tells you, pressing the button for the floor you live on since he’s closer. “You know how it is.”
“Wow, you’re so descriptive.”
“Aw, like you really wanna listen to all that.”
This is unlike him since Ace loves chewing your ears off with his stories, though you suppose he’s not inebriated enough to start telling you about the time he and Sabo pissed in a pond and got arrested. Which is something you’ve heard about around fifteen times at your get-togethers.
You smile your usual sharp and evil little grin, inching closer to him, his nose hovering near yours, breath mingling. “What if I do?”
Ace tilts his head to the side, not understanding what you’re getting at. “I don’t know? I’d tell you, I guess.”
The elevator doors open and you back away from him like nothing had happened, face slacking, leading the way to your apartment. He follows in your stead and you two spend some time catching up for a few minutes until the pizza arrives. You act like you’ve forgotten you ordered it already, which doesn’t surprise him, but Ace would also rather give himself a noogie than miss out on free food.
Your return is cause for celebration enough, so he cheers and you bow while balancing the two boxes in your hands.
“You even got the biggest ones,” he points out with a genuine sense of wonder, like you’ve made him the happiest man alive by buying some shit full of grease. You place them on the table, re-taking your spot next to him on the couch.
“What can I say? My riches precede me.” Not to mention you had a discount on that, but you’re not about to tell him lest your delusions of luxury shatter.
“Not to be that guy, but that’s… not how you use that word.”
At his response, you scoff. “Go to Italy once and you start thinking you’re all fancy.”
“You’re an idiot,” he says, nudging you in the ribs and laughing at your expense once more. Your scowling only gets more intense, but then he stops when an idea crosses his mind. He reaches for another slice and then he brings it up to your face like he’s trying to tempt a horse with carrots. “Try some of mine. It’s really good.”
“Sure,” you concede, parting your mouth, about to take a bite. If you’re generous (which you’d insist you are, usually), you might even share yours.
At this moment Ace falls asleep with his head landing on your shoulder. Both of his pizza slices end up on your shirt and one of his arms dangles around your waist. Your eye twitches as visions of washing these new stains enter your mind. For a second you contemplate kicking him out to get robbed or something, but you end up letting him doze on you anyway.
___
You’re laying down on your towel and Ace invited himself to sit on it, too, in front of you under the parasol. It’s cramped and you don’t have enough space to stretch your legs without exposing them to the harsh sun. Besides, you’d overdramatized how you burned your soles when you guys were settling down earlier. “Why’d you even wanna go to the beach? You can’t even swim.”
“I told you already!” You can imagine the dumb expression he’s making with ease, even though you can only see him rubbing the back of his head. “I wanted to go boating with you. And then I forgot to take the boat…”
Ignoring how idiotic that is, you say, “I think you just like having an excuse to be shirtless.”
Ace clicks his tongue, your remark reminding him of something. “They actually still do that dresscode thing at restaurants, can you believe that?”
You can believe that considering he got kicked out on your birthday a few years ago for showing up in just an unbuttoned shirt, a ridiculous cowboy hat and crocs. Then you had to sneak him in through the bathroom window. Sometimes your genius mind astounds you.
“No, that’s totally a shock,” you say in the most genuine tone you can muster. A thought crosses your mind, and that never ends in anything good, but regardless you proceed.
You grace Ace with a light kick to the back, and he turns around with a small frown on his lips. “Why am I your foot scrubber all of a sudden?”
“Ace, I’m bored,” you tell him. “I wanna bury you in the sand.”
He pushes your legs away from him to fry on the scorching sands, which makes you glare at him, and then he protests, “No way! Not if I bury you first.”
Your instinctual reaction is to sit up and try to put him in a chokehold, which leads him to mumble something about you being a raging sociopath under his breath, but he wrestles out of your hold without too much trouble. What ensues next is a series of swats and pushing at each other as well as incoherent screams about who’s going to be a ‘sandy loser.’ Many bystanders stare incredulously at your childish display.
At one point, Ace manages to get you to lie back down. Not restraining your wrists or anything is definitely an unwise move, but he manages to lose his balance somehow and he tumbles over you, finding his chest pressed against yours, faces dangerously close together. Again, he gets this sort of sheepish nervousness in this proximity, even though it’s not unusual for you to touch each other. Something about this is different though, with his lips almost ghosting over yours. A queasy feeling torments his stomach.
Everything stills, and Ace swallows dryly before he clenches his fists by your sides. Alright, this is the moment. He lowers his eyelids, mentally preparing himself to give you a quick peck, but you interrupt his plans of romance by rolling over and flipping your positions so you’re straddling him now.
The sand feels unbearably hot on his back. Whatever mood he was in before is surely ruined now and you let out an evil laugh of triumph before you pour some over his abdomen, too.
“Wait, ouch, it burns,” he pleads, but you ignore him and continue with your task of burying him. “Seriously, you’re vicious!”
“Shut up. I won.”
Ace pushes you off, but you slip away and bolt towards the water. When you throw a glance over your shoulder and realize he’s following you, you don’t make it past the shallows. After one step in, he backs away with exaggerated fright. “It’s cold.”
“It’s so hot this, it's so cold that,” you say, crossing your arms and shifting your weight to one hip. “You’re such a baby.” Then, unprovoked, you splash him by swiping your leg across the water and laugh to yourself as if it’s really funny.
Ace stands upright and shivers like a hideous wet animal as a result. Still, your douchebaggery is the only motivation he needs to resolve to waddle in and try to get revenge on you while you walk sideways like a crab in your attempt at avoiding him.
Noticing your refusal to go any deeper, Ace halts with a smile. “Aw, you don’t want me to drown,” he says.
“Come on, what do you think I am-”
He takes the opportunity to pull you forward by the arms into himself and you both fall down, with him on his ass and you on your knees, almost bumping your head into his nose before you adjust yourself. You deadpan,
“What, so now we’re gonna sit here and play like toddlers?”
As if this wasn’t what you were doing before, anyway.
“Well, it’s easier to do this now,” he says, splashing you in the face. A seaweed ends up on your forehead and Ace almost dies laughing while you spit out water and rub your eye.
“Remember what you said about me not wanting you to drown?”
“Yeah?”
“I don’t care anymore!”
With this declaration, Ace can only dart out of the water in a panic and run back to the parasol before you really lunge and kill him.
___
When Ace sees he has a text from you, he makes the mistake of smiling. It must mean you’re planning some outing since that’s usually why you message him, but then he unlocks his phone and swipes to your contact, and his grin falls immediately, replaced by a look of puzzlement.
butt-head Do you take it up the ass
Beavis ??????????
butt-head Lol Sorry wrong chat
Beavis who tf are u texting that
butt-head Nunya
Beavis never heard of him
butt-head Nunya Business 😎😎😎😎
Beavis seriously doesn’t ring a bell
butt-head Dude
 Idiot do u know a guy named nunya business
sabo-kins You can’t be serious?
Idiot is he rich or something
sabo-kins ACE?????????
Idiot i mean his last name is business
___
You’re having the time of your life, surrounded by several friends on the island seat while you pre-game even though there isn’t even a game. In other words, you’re piss drunk and everyone’s laughing up a storm at your story. Thatch almost chokes on his own spit when you finish off with, “And then he told Sabo, ‘I mean, his last name is Business.’”
Ace, sitting to your left, narrows his eyes at you in suspicion over the lid of his glass. “So, what, you mean to tell me Nunya Business doesn’t-” and then before he can finish his sentence, once he hears himself aloud, he stops talking and blinks in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe I fell for that.”
“Me neither,” you howl, slapping your knee even though it’s not that funny.
“C’mon, you’re an asshole,” he says, butting into your side, though at the cost of almost falling off his bar stool. Ace swings an arm over your shoulder and brings you closer while you squint your eyes at him like he’s blurry. He kind of is, from your point of view.
“That’s not what Nunya said last night.”
He barks out a fake laugh at that, then immediately turns serious, returning your squinting. “Stop. I won’t fall for it again.”
“Whateverrr,” you slur, throwing an arm around his waist, too.
“Like, I totally won’t.”
“Hahahaha,” you say, not really laughing, but the corners of your mouth quirk up regardless. Then you nudge him like he nudged you when you ordered pizza that one time. “What’s Nunya Business to you, anyway?”
“It’s really not funny. I thought you were cheatin’ on me,” he whines, resting his head on your shoulder.
You’re too far gone to question why he’s suddenly decided you’re dating, so you place your head on his. “I’d never do that! It was the good old wrong chat maneuver.”
“[Y/nnnnnnnnn]…”
“Aceeeeeeeeeee…”
“What’s wrong with them?” Marco mutters, downing another shot of whiskey, while Thatch shrugs as if to say ‘just the regular idiocy.’
“You know,” he starts, then he shoots upright, knocking you away from him, leaving you to rub your forehead. With more determination this time, he starts over and raises his index finger high in the air. “You know, I’d- I’d get a tattoo of your name.”
You’re sure he didn’t plan to say that and just made it up on the spot and you’re also pretty sure he doesn’t mean it. Still, you’ll entertain the notion as if he’s being genuine instead of drunken gibberish. “Hmm.” Then you poke him on the biceps before you start squeezing it, rubbing your chin while deep in thought. “I don’t want that, though. You couldn’t even spell yours right.”
“It’s not meant to be my name,” he says. “I told you like, a million times. After you called me Asce once in front of everyone, remember? And the lady taking our reservations thought my name was Asce…”
“Aceeeeeeeeeee…” you cry again.
“[Y/nnnnnnnn]…” Ace spreads his arms then, trying to hug you.
“‘m sorry.” You pucker your lips like in a cartoon, trying to land one big gross kiss to his forehead.
In a fit of narcolepsy, Ace’s eyes flutter shut and he falls over the counter while you suddenly hurl over his shoulder before you start coughing, gagging on your own vomit. In a way, his abrupt nap saved him since at least his face didn’t meet this fate. And, okay, maybe you both had too much to drink just this once.
Marco jams a thumb in your direction and sighs as if to say ‘See? Idiots.’
___
You wake up with a throbbing headache, though at least you find you’re in your bed, which means you made it home without getting run over or something. Your phone blares, apparently in need of your attention, and you lean over to retrieve it.
Beavis we need to talk about last night
Uh oh. Your memories of whatever transpired yesterday are vague at best, but you don’t recall a situation when someone said this to you after a night of drinking that ended up well. You try to mask your ignorance with a neutral reply.
butt-head What about it
Beavis i cant believe u let me think nunya was a real person for a week straight?!?!?!
Oh, wait, yeah. You were telling that story to Marco and Thatch at the bar. You send a voice message of your obnoxious laughter for a minute straight in response.
___
You can’t believe Luffy has your ass playing Hide and Seek right now.
Sabo and Ace are busy until tomorrow morning and apparently he doesn’t enjoy being left alone for so long, so Ace asked you to do him a ‘small’ favor and keep him company until tomorrow morning. You like Luffy well enough to accept, and now here you are.
Though you expected he would’ve busted your ass by now. A part of you wishes he would since your limbs are all growing numb the longer you hold this position. You can hear speaking from outside, though with your position it’s all too muffled to make out. Then footsteps near Ace’s room, where you’re hiding, and you think finally Luffy is going to find you.
The door opens then shuts again, which you find kind of odd, and then something outside rustles. Maybe Luffy is checking if you’re under the bed? You can imagine him doing so.
After a while of nothing, the closet door opens.
It’s not Luffy you come face-to-face with, but Ace. His eyes widen in surprise as do yours while you stare at each other.
“Uh,” he starts while you pretend you don’t notice that he’s almost naked.
“I can explain,” you say.
“Nah. Luffy told me you guys are playing.”
He backs away and you shuffle around until you make it out of the cramped space while Ace nonchalantly leans over to rummage for pajamas. Something crosses your mind then. “I thought you’re coming back tomorrow?”
“Oh, uh… My thing ended early,” he tells you, slipping a t-shirt over his head and adjusting it. He totally didn’t bail to see you since he knew you’d be here. That’d be stupid.
You seem to catch onto this, though, because you grin and lower your eyelids at him, looking smug. Inching closer with crossed arms, you ask, “Did it now?”
“Depends on what you’re gonna do about it,” he chances, deciding to play your game.
How you’re about to continue, he’s not sure, but you jostle when you feel a tap on your shoulder. “Found you,” Luffy says, unimpressed.
“Don’t sneak up on me like that.” You level him with your trademark glare.
“You’re not very good at this game,” he says.
“What? You were looking for me for forever!”
“Touchy about Hide and Seek, aren’t you?” Ace asks with a laugh, in slight disbelief of your immaturity.
“Shut up, no one’s talking to you, bedhead.”
“Bedhead?! You like my hair and you know it.”
“I mean,” Luffy continues as if you and Ace aren’t having another unnecessary argument, “you’re just standing here in plain sight.”
“I so wasn’t!” With finality, you turn towards Ace. “Anyway, now that you’re here, I guess I can go home, right?”
“I mean, you can stay, too.”
“Like I wanna sleep on the couch.”
“Wait,” he says, and he wants to offer for you to share the bed with him or something, but instead what comes out of his mouth at the last second is, “you didn’t drive Luffy anywhere, right?”
You stare at him like you find him stupid and incredulous. “No?”
“Okay ‘cause Sabo banned it.”
With a roll of your eyes, you step out of the room, and then you notice Ace is trailing after you. “What do you want?”
“Nothing, geez.”
“Ok, but Sabo is so dramatic. I’m very good at driving.”
Ace assesses you with a disbelieving look.
“Fuck you.”
“Have a safe drive home.”
“Seriously, I’m so serious right now, fuck you.”
“Wait, I didn’t mean it like that,” Ace says, holding up your jacket for you so you can slide your arms inside. “But maybe you need it,” he adds when you’re on the brink of letting it go, sounding amused.
Instead of saying goodbye like a normal person, you hold up your hand and tell him to talk to it.
___
Your car pulls up into view and for the first time, Ace is grateful. The feeling doesn’t last for longer than fifteen seconds, though, because you roll down the window and announce, “Orgasmtron-3000 and I are in the house tonight.”
He sighs and walks over with reasonable embarrassment (even though there’s no one else around to witness this), opening the passenger seat door before he sits down next to you. He slams the door closed, you don’t start up the car, and instead you tap your hands against the steering wheel. Then you give the abandoned gas station a look-over. “How’d you end up here, anyway?”
“Got lost,” he mumbles.
“Verbose as usual, Ace.”
“Verbose,” he repeats in a snotty tone, failing to imitate your voice.
For the first time, you ignore this. He raises an eyebrow when you don’t take the opportunity to start some entirely avoidable fight, and instead you evaluate him for a little before you smile. With your eyebrows furrowed, though, you appear kind of sinister rather than playful.
“What?”
“Uh-huh, what?” you snarl, trying to sound like a caveman to imply he’s a dunce.
Now Ace is pouting at you since he’s not all that good at glaring, not like you are, and then you remember what it was you were trying to do, or maybe you just get the nerve now. You settle your hand on his exposed knee since he’s wearing one of his hideous pairs of shorts with designs on them and say,
“We’re alone right now.”
Like an idiot, he looks around and nods and ignores the goosebumps which break out at the unexpected contact. “Yeah, we are.”
“I wanna kiss you, ok?”His cheeks redden and burn and Ace stares at you like you gave him a jumpscare. He averts his line of sight and, “Then… Then what’s stopping you?”
You shrug. “Nothing now, I guess.”
You unbuckle your seatbelt to get the slightest bit closer to him and he kind of just waits for you to make a move, like he’s scared you’re going to change your mind if you detect even a twitch from him. With your free hand you trace his nape and he leans in, tilting his head until your lips meet half-way even though it’s not the most comfortable within the confines of your car.
Ace grabs you by the waist and tries to pull you closer. You comply, jumping into his lap, and you’re kind of aggressive and harsh with the way you move now like Ace had imagined you’d be whenever he’d think about this before. Your nerves are on fire as if you’ve been waiting to feel his silken lips and the tickle of his breath under your nose for too long. And you have.
You move on from his mouth to his jaw, peppering him with little kisses while he turns to give you one on the temple, tightening his hold against your waist. Then you lick down his neck, all his hairs standing alert. When you find a spot you think will be easy to hide, you suck on the skin near his collarbone and Ace lets out a sigh, surprised to feel so sensitive there.
After you part, you take a moment to hold each other’s gazes. He loosens his grip on you and breaks eye contact.
“I, ya know,” he says, an admission of some sort. Though maybe he doesn’t need to say anything, it feels good to acknowledge it for once even if it’s scary, even if he doesn’t know why exactly you wanted to smush faces with him. Or maybe he doesn’t need to say anything because you’ve always been kind of together, haven’t you?
Your eyes turn to crescents and you give him your malicious, toothy grin. “I ya know you too.”
Ace sulks, shoulders slumping at your remark. “You’re still a jerk, though.”

i have returned!!
i think daffodilpaw has recently become my fav cat? and this issue just cements it!! she really hits close to home for me in some ways without going into specifics and i care about her very much. she’s just a silly guy, a little fella! she owns my heart and she’s in my head rent free. this new issue also adds so much to her character!! the fact that she holds herself to the rules and lifestyle so tightly because she feels like she owes it to everyone hits so hard and is such a cool thing to portray considering pinepaw keeps sticking his nose into places he shouldn’t! i think the term is literary foil or something like that? whatever it is i think it adds to both of their characters!
i do want to say though cormorantpine is probably endgame, cormorantdaff seems really cute in concept! though how she calls it her ‘destiny’ while talking about how she could have died, and how she looks at beeface and blacknose with that almost concerned look it makes me hesitant to say she actually has feelings for him, and more of that she’s forcing it down her own throat in order to fulfill her own supposed destiny and to make the cats around her proud. the proud part could be related to just the whole leg thing but in the original video it was mentioned that she talks a little too much and cats want her to quiet, or something like that. i have a feeling that she thinks that maybe doing this will help cats to accept her more too.. i want to give her a hug. of course i could be wrong on some points but that’s my read of it!
daffodil supremacy!! loving the awkwardness between the two about having a crush on the same dude!! now we need asphodel to also get a crush on cormorant so all three can suffer haha, i always love the writing and art in these updates!!! keep up the great work!!
YEAAY I always look forward to your thoughts after an issue! :)
Daffodilpaw has definitely grown on me a lot, and I've come around to drawing her spotty design over and over. It's a pretty fun pattern to replicate (unlike Asphodelpaw, haha.)
Omg Daffodilpaw and Pinepaw being foils to each other is such a good take, I love it! The ways that they deal with the relative pressure that their society puts on them are in totally opposite directions, but in the end it's affecting both of them in dangerous ways. Heck yeah!
I think that Cormorant and Daff could be cute together if only both of them could meet on equal terms and were actually like, well-adjusted in any way, haha. Heat sink and heat source and all of that. But yes, you're definitely reading it the way I intended, in that she's kind of convincing herself that she has a crush on him rather than naturally developing those feelings. She just wants people to like her and be proud of her so badly. :(
Imagine if Asphodelpaw did have a crush on Cormorantpaw, that'd be so funny. The whole sibling squad making eyes at this man with not a SINGLE thought about romance going through his head.
Thank you so much for the awesome comments as usual! :D They make me so happy.

TWO QUESTIONS THIS TIME >:D is juno an antagonist to you, and what would his worst/best traits be?
lets see.
i dont think juno is an antagonist or a bad person, but in his session he definitely was AN antagonist, he was grim dark! and he was for most of his sburb game, until they very very end. BUT... junos kind of whatever the narrative needs him to be. i think naturally though, deep down, he really is a good person. he wants to be so badly, despite his lack of empathy, he really does care and have a lot of compassion in him. he's not apathetic towards ANYTHING, he just doesn't know how to empathize with other peoples feelings, and is only able to understand his own and assumes that others are the same as his. i think he is a good person who often does bad things. i am exaggerating his bad traits a bit, i think including the fact that his dad was abusive, and that his sister was already godtier, and that he was not in control of his body most times his boyfriend ended up dying (or that a lot of those instances were just bc me and tazz wanted to rp angst and it weasnt actually that serious) but in general all light players have this sort of "good guy bad guy" sort of thing going on, while all tryuing to do what they think is smart and right. i wouldn't call vriska an antagonist, yknow? juno doesnt do things because he thinks itll forever bhurt the person, or hope they really really do get hurt or scared (unlike jaxi, thats one of their big differences, jaxis goal IS to create harm) he bjust thinks thats how people have fun. most of his friends that i said he's stabbed as well are ALSO like that, juno has almost exclusively troll or inhuman friends who express love or excitement with violence, so its not like hes just stabbing people for fun, yk? and his boyfriends pretty much the same way, very pro violence. i dont think juno can be fit into a label like that easily. the best i can come up with is "good guy who does bad things" but not an antihero. the reverse of an antihero i think. hero who wants to do good but ends up causing more pain in the process due to lack of experience and naivity
JUNOS BEST TRAIT: he has two that are tied i think, his compassion/drive to help people in need, and his need to entertain others. i think he is a very fun person to be around as long as he doesnt get riled up too much and is quite fun to just WATCH even from a distance, and hes painfully generous. if he has something he is 100% willing to share it, or give it away in general. hes silly, he loves giving gifts, he loves making people laugh, he loves creating amazing art for people to enjoy, he loevs doing bits with people, he loves plays and theatre. hes just fun, yk? if someone is in need even if he HATES THEM SO BAD he wants to help them, the only exclusion being his dad. in the server he let harry du bois sleep in his house and gave himm food and clothes, and takes care of his pet possums because harry is too incapable and drunk to take care of himself or his pets, despite juno REALLY hating harry and harry constantly crossing his boundaries.
JUNOS WORST TRAIT: hubris hubris hubris. his hubris is THE worst one, by far. he thinks he is more aware, and much smarter than MOST people around him due to his light powers (hes not) and tends to think hes invincible because of it. this leads him to making stupid, horrible decisions, or trusting people he shouldnt, or him walking over peoples feelings and boundaries because he thinks what he needs to get across is more important. and the second one would probably be his lack of empathy yeah. btu even that wouldn't be so bad if it werent for his massive ego. he really does think he is the most important person in the world, and that he is the only one who can create good or bad in the world. due to his meta awareness he really does think hes the protagonist of any story hes in (even when he genuinely is not) and sees everything reliant on HIM and HIS decisions.
anywas i love you me when i get fun asks

Red Rose // Riddle x female reader.
Tumblr media
Start out as a small crush until he couldn't handle it.
Riddle admires how you can took care of Ace and Deuce plus Grim. He was quite surprised when you took over serious thing easily. Plus the three boys seem to respect you, oh, how much he which those three would respect him too. Yuu was also very happy that you could help him. Even tho you are just a magicless girl, everyone seem to respect you in their own way. He admire how you get along with people quickly. And getting on your bad side wouldn't be a fun job.
Just because you are nice and all doesn't mean you dont get in trouble. Ace and Deuce would always complain. Why? Because while Riddle scold them you got to watch. Because Riddle always blame them even if you come up with the plan. But when he scold you, it wasn't even scolding.
"Y/n you shouldn't do that, ok?" "Ok" "Good now, now, do you want to eat some tart trey made for me?" "Yup!".
"That's so unfair, he never offer us tart!" Ace say as he hide in the bush, with Deuce, Yuu and Grim "Does Riddle have a crush on...." Yuu say as the four of them freak out "He probably does, the way he is acting towards her is... Weird" Yuu say "But it's still unfair!" Grim say as Yuu shush him up "He took my magic cause I broke one rule, while she burn down a tree and got offered a tart!?" Grim asked "Yeah seriously, I swear I am going to tell her and embarrassed Riddle" Ace say "Isn't that a bit too far?" Deuce asked as Ace say no.
Everyone in heartslabyul know that you are Riddle favorite. No matter how much trouble you cause, he would and will always forgive you easily.
No one even have the guts to mess with you. Why? because it would be OFF WITH THEIR HEAD!! Riddle love it when you give him a head pat, he loved that you were so patient with him. Even tho you two aren't in a relationship, everyone already know you two are the perfect couple.
Riddle also get jelouse easily even if you aren't dating. Cater couldn't help but take some pictures, because you two look so cute together. #Cutecouple. And he would blush when you give him anything especially rose. Trey is also super supportive of you two, Riddle loved you with all his heart and he knew that you would never hurt him. Sometimes you would go to Trey and asked him on how to make strawberry tart. Even if Trey offer you help you always refuse, because if trey help you make it then it wouldn't be special anymore.
It was Monday, that day Ace got mad at Riddle normal stuff. And Riddle was getting mad again, You, Yuu, Deuce, Grim, Cater and Trey were there.
"Can you just follow the rule for once!?" Riddle asked Ace who chuckled "At least I dont hide my feeling unlike you!" Ace say "What d-do you mean!?" Riddle asked trying to act cool. "Oh dont act dumb, everyone know that you like Y/n!" Ace say.
That day things went too good. Because of Ace talking to much, Heartslabyul celebrates that Riddle and you getting together, finally. "This is going to look so good!" Cater say as he smile "I agree, it's good to see Riddle this happy" Trey say as he smile like a proud dad.
When you and Riddle got together new rules were added. Rule 812 : Y/n will always love Riddle. Even tho it sound silly it was still cute.

Welcome to Nowhere: Plan- pt.3
At first, nothing seems to happen. Mayor Miller’s face falls, going from cheerful to…. What looks to be afraid- in an instant. He glances  nervously at Mr.Rotary, then back to Bianca, waiting for something to happen. But… nothing does. At least, not at first. 
“Tch-” Mr.Rotary scoffs, breaking the tense silence. “How long is this one going to last? Your record was 4 months- and that was when I still allowed you to date. Does he know what number he is?” Mr.Rotary let out a cruel laugh, pointing to Emerson. “I’ve lost track- and I’m betting you probably have too. So, Bianca, why don’t you tell him? How many boyfriends have you had? How many disposable toys has my sweet little pathetic excuse of an heir gone through?” He’s getting louder again, trying to seem calm while his anger boils up through the surface. 
“Sweetheart-”
“No no,” Mr.Rotary interrupts, waving a dismissive hand at his husband. “Let her answer the question.”
“Dad, Emerson is the love of my life, and nothing- even my past is going to change that,” Bianca says, sounding as though she’s talking through clenched teeth.
“Oh, that’s rich,” Mr.Rotary laughs. “I’ve actually never heard that one before- though I imagine you’ve said that exact thing to almost all of them. Let’s see,” he muses. “There was Rodger, William, Camilo, James, Amiri… those were all the notable ones. Unfortunately I can’t remember the rest. Not to mention all the boys you’ve been sneaking in. Do you really think I wouldn’t notice? Oh- hey, didn’t  you date one of your silly little friends too? Which one was he? The daisy-headed one?” He laughs, though not out of amusement. “You there,” he turns to face Emerson. “Don’t be fooled- she’s already dated or hooked up with practically every boy in her school- she doesn’t love you. You’re just a new face for her to make out with.” He’s getting really loud now… almost yelling. “Isn’t it just so wonderful for me to have been blessed with such an embarrassment? And you- “ he turns back to his daughter. “Don’t try and fool yourself- and don’t you dare try to fool me.”
“I love him.” She says tightly, elbowing Emerson, signaling for them to start their own acting. 
“A-and I love her!” He says almost a little too loudly. They’re shaking too- and blushing… a lot. “I- uhm…” They look around, begging for someone to give him a clue on what to do next.    “I d-don’t care about her past boyfriends… and I’m totally…. I-in l-l-love..��� They awkwardly scratch the back of their neck, and try to hide their face from everybody else. “...yeah.”
It’s silent for a moment before Mr.Rotary barks out a cruel laugh.  “Ha! How did you convince him to fake all this?” He jeers, pointing his finger condescendingly at Emerson. “Why, he’s even turning green with disgust! Oooh, I bet you lied to him didn’t you, and he’s all caught off guard now! After all, even you know no one would really like a pathetic little slut like you!”
“Honey-”
“Shush.”
Well, things certainly seem to have escalated since the beginning of this dinner. You haven’t even eaten anything yet.
“Psst-” You whisper, leaning towards Jenny. “Do you think now would be the time to leave?”
“I don’t know,” she whispers back. “Let’s give it another minute, just in case.”
“Nothing you say changes anything, Dad.” Bianca says matter-of-factly. “Emerson and I are in love, and he and I are going to go off and explore the world together- and I’m never going to work for you or your shitty company ever again!” She finishes on a dramatic note, standing up proudly, looking her father directly in the… well, not-eye, you suppose. 
In one swift movement, Mr.Rotary leaps across the table, and smacks Bianca over the TV screen. 
That’s when all hell breaks loose. 
Bianca, for one, seems calm and moves back along as if nothing had happened. She leans down and whispers something into Emerson’s ear- who nods in response- and the next moment the two are kissing. 
Mayor Miller, unlike Bianca, is anything but calm.  He leaps up from his chair, running over to where a seething Mr.Rotary is, trying to calm him down. 
Also not calm, are Gia and Bea. Bea is barking wildly, whereas Gia draws their sword, preparing it to swing at Mr.Rotary- who is now attempting to shove Mayor Miller out of his way. 
Aderyn sits across from you, frozen in shock. 
“C’mon, we need to go now!” Jenny hisses, grabbing your hand, then reaching across the table to grab Aderyn’s. 
“N-now?” You stutter. “But-”
“I know, I know! It’ll be fine, trust me!” Jenny starts to drag you and AderYn out of the room which is now in total disarray. The table has been knocked over after Mr.Rotary’s leap across it, and Gia is breaking dishes as they swing their sword over them.  They’re not aiming to kill Mr.Rotary, you can tell. No, they’re just trying to injure him. Rather than stabbing or slashing at him, Gia attempts to hit  his knees with the back of their sword instead.  But… just before they can strike, they stop, suddenly going stiff. 
“What… is…. This?” They say, struggling to speak
MR.Rotary lets out yet another cruel crackle. “Why, shouldn’t you already know? It’s in our contract, after all.”
…What? Contract? You don’t remember what was written… do you? What-

The next thing you know, both you and Aderyn are pulled through to the other side of the kitchen doors before they slam shut behind you. “Well then,” Jenny huffs, brushing off the dust from her overalls. “We have a very limited amount of time, so let’s hurry this up, okay?”

What Naps Are Like With Them (Everyone)
In celebration of my first post kinda blowing up, I wrote a little something for all the characters, including Luke! (platonically for him, of course)
Again, thank you guys for all the love on my Satan Reacting to Montero fic <3 I’ll be working on requests after this.
Also, no beta we die like Lilith.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Lucifer
➼ Never sleeps, e v e r
➼ His brothers would destroy the House of Lamentation in his sleep
➼Took a while to convince him to take a nap with you because of this
➼ His brothers listen to you more than they listen to their older brother, so you begged them to behave for a few hours so that their older brother can rest for once
➼ You will use your pact if you have to, just please let this man sleep
➼ You made sure to pick a day where you know Lucifer hadn’t slept the night before due to his workload
➼ Seriously, you had to talk to Diavolo about that
➼ You both got into your comfiest pajamas and played some soft classical music for ultimate relaxation
➼ You thought about taking a picture of hm while he slept
➼ He saw it coming and had you sleep facing away from him with his arms wrapped around you so you couldn’t turn around
➼ Smart bastard
➼  If you complain about it he’ll laugh at you
➼ Hey, at least you get cuddles
➼ Luci here looks so calm and peaceful while he sleeps, it’s adorable
➼ No wonder everyone tries to take a picture of him sleeping
➼ He’s a heavy sleeper, so you end up having to wake him up after a few hours
➼ He thanks you
➼ He’s well-rested and in a good mood for the rest of the day
➼ His brothers obviously take advantage of that
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Mammon
➼ Unlike most of his brothers, he actually has a decent sleep schedule (most of the time)
➼ However, if you wanted to take a nap with him, he wouldn’t say no
➼ Well, he’d say no, but then say yes immediately after
➼ “Whaddya mean you wanna take a nap with me? Do I look like Belphie!?”
➼ Blushing like crazy while complaining, as usual
➼ “Fine, I’ll go nap with him, then.”
➼ “Oi! Come back here! I changed my mind, I wanna take a nap!”
➼ Tsundere baby
➼ Obviously, you tease him about it
➼ “Jealous, huh? I thought that was Levi’s thing.”
“Shut up! Are we gonna cuddle or not?”
“I said nap, not cuddle.”
➼ Cue the pout
➼ The definition of the 🥺 face
➼ Please love this child
➼ “I’m kidding, of course we’re gonna cuddle.”
➼ Usually a little spoon
➼ Unless he’s in a jealous mood
➼ If he is, he will hold on to you like his life depends on it.
➼ More teasing, obviously
➼ If you think about it, Greed and Envy are very similar
➼ Poor baby wants love
➼ New drinking game: take a shot every time I call Mammon a baby
➼ I shot of water, I know you’re dehydrated
➼ Anyways, naps with Mammon = cuddles
➼ Either you’re holding him to you or he’s holding you to him
➼ f o r e h e a d  k i s s e s
➼ Mammon gets nightmares about what happened with Belphie sometimes, so lots of comfort cuddles
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Leviathan
➼ “Levi, did you sleep at all last night?”
➼ Obviously not
➼ He was up all night binge watching the latest season of “The Magical Ruri Hanai: Demo Girl”’s  spin-off series
➼ Why would you even ask?
➼ “Levi, did you stay up all night?”
➼ He looked away, a little embarrassed. “Uh, yeah.”
➼ “Levi, honey. You need to sleep. It’s not good for your health to be staying up so late.”
➼ Leviathan.exe has stopped working
➼ You’re worrying about him?????
➼ And you’re calling him honey?????
➼ Are you trying to kill him?????
➼ “You must be exhausted. Wanna take a nap?”
“Oh, uh. Yeah. I guess I could use a nap.”
“Alright. We should go to my room, since there’s more room on my bed than in your tub.”
➼ Wait you meant a nap together????
➼ You’re really trying to kill him.
➼ Usually, he’d make fun of you and call you a normie.
➼ But he was currently too busy dying.
➼ If somehow you managed to resurrect him and get him to your room to nap, then you’d know this shy boi is a little spoon.
➼ Does this really come as a surprise to anyone? It shouldn’t.
➼ He’s blushing like crazy the whole time.
➼ “Levi, if you can't sleep with me here, I can leave.”
“No!”
➼ He does sleep eventually.
➼ Sweet baby cuddles you in his sleep.
➼ Wholesome af
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Satan
➼ As the most responsible one in the family, he has a pretty good sleep schedule, so he doesn’t normally take naps.
➼ However, if you ask him to, he’ll agree. 
➼ If it makes you happy he’ll do it <3
➼ He’s not really touchy-feely and won’t initiate any cuddling.
➼ Dude that you asked to nap because you were tired and wanted to sleep.
➼ Nah bro, you just want cuddles.
➼ While he won’t initiate any cuddles, if you make it more obvious that you want some, he’ll give them to you.
➼ Big spoon
➼ If you want him to be the small spoon, he will, but he’ll be flustered af.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Asmodeus
➼ “Asmo, wanna sleep together?”
➼ Could you have made a poorer word choice?
➼ No, you could not.
➼ This boy literally made the lenny face.
➼ “Asmo, I meant a nap.”
“Well, I suppose that’ll satisfy me for now.”
➼ You then proceeded to smack him with a pillow.
“Hey! Don’t mess up my hair!”
➼ You had to wait for him to take off his makeup and change his clothes and stuff.
➼ It’s a process.
➼ Cuddle’s tf out of you.
➼ He’ll be the big spoon or the little spoon. It doesn’t matter to him, so you can decide.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Beelzebub
➼ Takes naps with Belphie a lot and thought it was cute that you also wanted to nap.
➼ Pre-nap snack first, though.
➼ Then he’s ready.
➼ Sweet boi will enjoy the nap whether he’s a big spoon or little spoon.
➼ If you’re happy, he’s happy <3
➼ You kiss his face a lot.
➼ He thinks you’re the cutest little human ever when you do that.
➼ I’d say soft Beel, but when is he ever not soft?
➼ Not counting the custard incident
➼ He Likes to kiss the top of your head while you sleep.
➼ He definitely snores.
➼ It takes some getting used to, but you’re not gonna let keep you from cuddling your big boi.
➼ It honestly feels really safe and comforting to just be wrapped up in his arms.
➼ Equally comforting to have his head resting against you.
➼ Overall just really soft.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Belphegor
➼ You don’t even need to ask. He’s the king of naps.
➼ Being around Belphie for an extended period of time makes you sleepy.
➼ You’re not sure if it’s because he’s sleep or if it’s because he has some sort of sleep-power.
➼ Any time you cuddle you end up taking a nap.
➼ Do I even have to say it?
➼ S m a l l  s p o o n
➼ The smallest spoon.
➼ As the youngest, he’s the most spoiled, so he’s really really clingy and just expects you to drop whatever you’re doing at any given time to nap with him.
➼ I mean, you’d probably do it even if he didn’t expect you to.
➼ He does this adorable thing when he’s sleepy and he sees you nearby where he’ll go up to you and wrap his arms around you and rest his head against your shoulder and just say “Sleep, please.”
➼ You will stop whatever you’re doing no matter what and go up to the attic to nap with him.
➼ Not an exaggeration. It’s happened while Lucifer was talking to you before he he was p i s s e d.
➼ It was obviously intentional
➼ But how can you say no to his cute face?
➼ He seems to be able to keep you from having nightmares and you sleep 100x better with him than on your own
➼ Softest boi
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Simeon
➼ While he may dress like a stripper, this man is an angel and is pure™
➼ Anything you want, you’ll get. How can he ever deny you a thing?
➼ He can’t.
➼ You want naps? You get naps.
➼ You want cuddles? You get cuddles.
➼ You want sleepy kisses? You get sleepy kisses.
➼ Hotel? Trivago.
➼ But seriously, sleepy kisses are definitely a thing.
➼ Especially forehead kisses.
➼ Big spoon. He likes to hold you.
➼ Sweet boy loves you so much 🥺
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Luke (Platonically)
➼ Purgatory Hall has weekly movie nights, and they invite you over a lot to join them.
➼ You and Solomon have a very long list of human world movies you want Simeon to watch, but the poor man can’t figure out how Devilflix works for the life of him, so group movie nights are the only way.
➼ Not that any of you mind, of course.
➼ Luke begged Simeon to let him join you guys (he has a pretty strict bedtime)
➼ Simeon lets him occasionally if the movie is appropriate.
➼ Luke insisted on sitting next to you and sharing any treats he made that day.
➼ Poor baby ended up falling asleep not even halfway through the movie.
➼ Solomon obviously made fun of him.
➼ “Looks like it’s naptime for the little chihuahua.”
“Don’t tease him!” You say, defending Luke.
➼ At some point, Luke shifts so that he’s leaning against you in his sleep.
➼ You coo at how cute the ‘lil cherub looks.
➼ Aaaand then you proceed to fall asleep as well.
➼ You woke up the next day still on the couch. You were pretty confused since Simeon usually carries anyone who falls asleep to their bed (or the guest room, in your case).
➼ Then you realize Luke still asleep and wrapped around you.
➼ HE IS THE MOST PRECIOUS BABY EVER
➼ You assumed Simeon didn’t want to attempt moving one of you and risk waking the other so he just left you too
➼ Whatever it was, you went back to sleep with the little cherub snuggling you
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Solomon
➼ Purgatory Hall sleepover!
➼ Everyone had already fallen asleep, so you asked Solomon if he’d be alright with you two sleeping together.
➼ Not a good idea.
➼ You’re both settled in his bed and you’re about to drift off to sleep when this silly little sorcerer decided to tickle you.
➼ You  s h r e i k
➼ “Solomon!”
➼ “Keep your voice down, dear. You wouldn’t want Simeon hearing and getting the wrong idea, now. Would you?”
➼ The  s m a c c  you gave him though-
➼ “Can I sleep now, or are you gonna keep bothering me?”
“You know you love me.” He grinned.
“Well, duh. But I also love sleep.”
➼ He does let you sleep after that.
➼ You fall asleep first, and one look at your sleeping face and he falls in love with you all over again.
➼ You’re so  p r e c i o u s.
➼ He held you close to him as you slept, pressing soft, featherlight kisses against our forehead and nose, careful not to wake you.
➼ He’s a bitch until you fall asleep, pretty much.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Diavolo
➼ It wasn’t intentional for you to fall asleep, really.
➼ You’d had a long day, and you had been sitting with the demon prince at his palace as he told you about his day over a cup of tea.
➼ It wasn’t like what he was saying was boring.
➼ No, it’s just that you were so tired, and the sofa you were sitting on was so comfy, and Diavolo was talking so much.
➼ It didn’t help that the tea that Barbatos had prepared was especially soothing.
➼ You couldn’t help yourself. You dozed off.
➼ Diavolo continued talking, and probably would’ve gone on for a long while without even noticing if Barbatos hadn’t cleared his throat and gestured towards your sleeping form.
➼ If it had been anyone else, he would have deemed it disrespectful. 
➼ But it was you, and he had realized a long time ago that he was incapable of being upset with you.
➼ “It seems they’ve had a tiring day, my Lord. I suggest you let them rest.” Said Barbatos.
“Of course. I wouldn’t dream of disturbing them.” Carefully, he made his way over to you and pried the teacup from our hands so that you didn’t move and break it in your sleep.
➼ Then, he removed his suit jacket and draped it over you like a blanket.
➼ Not gonna lie, even Barbatos was a bit shooketh. 
➼ He didn’t say anything, though.
➼ Diavolo kissed your forehead lightly and had Barbatos bring him the last of his paperwork for the day, which he finished quickly while remaining by your side.
➼ After that he picked up our still sleeping form and brought you to his room where he tucked you in.
➼ He sent Lucifer a text saying that you would be staying the night at the palace then went to sleep after answering a few emails.
➼ He snores loudly, but you somehow managed to sleep through it.
»»————- ♔ ————-««
Barbatos
➼ Diavolo set up another palace retreat (because I said so)
➼ You had been assigned a room with Luke and Beelzebub that time.
➼ It went good at first, and everyone was sent off to sleep at around 10 p.m.
➼ At some point in the middle of the night, you awoke from a particularly nasty nightmare.
➼ You were more scared than usual when you woke up, since the room you were in was not your room at the House of Lamentation.
➼ It took a while for you to realize where you were and calm down, but even then you were to afraid to sleep.
➼ Slowly, you exited the room, careful not to disturb Luke and Beel.
➼ You made your way to Barbatos’ room and knocked softly.
➼ Briefly, you wondered if he was asleep, but then he opened the door.
➼ You silently panicked when you realized your hair was a mess and your clothing was rumpled from sleep, but your disheveled appearance didn’t seem to faze him.
➼ “Hello. I was just about to prepare for bed. Is something the matter?”
➼ Suddenly, you felt very, very silly to come to such an ancient, powerful being for help with a little nightmare.
➼ “Sorry, it’s nothing. I apologize for bothering you. I’ll leave.” You said, your cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
“You never bother me, my dear. Would you like to come in?” He asked, opening the door wider and stepping aside.
“Yes. I would like that.”
“Is something bothering you?”
You blushed. “I had a nightmare. I couldn’t go back to sleep after that. I know, it’s silly.”
“Of course it isn’t.”
“Can I... Can I stay here with you tonight?”
“If it would make you feel better, you may.”
➼ Barbatos tucked you in then sat next to you, gently running his hands through your hair. He began singing an old song in some ancient, forgotten language. His voice was soft and soothing as he sang, and you found yourself unable to stay awake even if you tried.
➼ “Goodnight, my dear.” He whispered, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.

hii I love your blogs sooo much you're really talented (I just needed to say it sorry) so straight to the point, I already made 2 requests to you and I really enjoyed your writing so I would like to make another again. As I'm clueless about what to request I'll just ask for random hcs for konoha 11, idk if it's too much but if so then you can do with Neji (I love him so much), Kakashi and Naruto. Thank you in advance and sorry anything ^^
RANDOM KONOHA 11 HEADCANONS!
FEATURING: naruto, sakura, shikamaru, ino, choji, neji, rock lee, tenten, kiba, hinata, and shino
WARNINGS: mentions alcohol, drugs, food, bugs, and the tiniest nsfw mention if you get the joke. hehe
A/N: AHHHH ANONN this seriously made my day, im so so glad you enjoy my work!! 💖
Tumblr media
NARUTO
you know how we all have “the chair”, where we throw all of our dirty clothes onto?
yeah, imagine that, but from the seat to the fricking ceiling
its just a GINORMOUS MOUND of clothes, you wonder how he even goes through that many clothes so quickly???
definitely shoves it under his bed whenever guests come over (somehow)
holds chopsticks really weirdly. but it works.
asked tenten to put his hair into space buns to mimic his sexy jutsu and went around flirting with the village
jiraiya was so proud of him T-T
comes up with the WORST pickup lines
they’re so bad, its almost charming. almost
has gone AWOL multiple times, disappearing from everywhere, just everywhere
it scared you a little, so you searched the entire village for him
you finally found him sitting on the ledge of a cliff, gazing out at the vast sea
concerned and panicked, you cried out to ask him what was wrong
he turned to you with a crestfallen, devastated look on his face and said,
“i bought shrimp ramen instead of chicken ramen.”
you’ve never searched for him after his disappearance ever again.
SAKURA
100% makes origami shurikens and chucks them at you
they are deathly precise and deathly sharp. seriously, how are these not illegal weapons yet???
writes threatening motivational notes to herself on the mirror
“u got this!” “make sure to smack naruto today!” “ino sucks!”
her backpack would always be way too high up on her back. idk why but. it would
does her hair all nice and pretty before she goes out but once she arrives to her destination SHE KEEP. TAKING. IT OUT. and redoing it over and over and over again
like it’s impossible to make eye contact with her because she’s holding a bobby pin between her teeth while braiding her hair
her guilty pleasure would be hostess treats
ding dongs are her favorite. don’t ask me how i know, i just know.
eats the yellow starbursts just to spite naruto and all her haters
loves small lap dogs, she think’s they’re so cute and cuddly
but she especially loves chihuahuas
they’re so feisty and naruto HATES them, so of course she had to go and get one for herself
dresses the poor dog up in little bonnets and jackets and ties its tiny fuzzy hairs into pigtails
she and the chihuahua are not that much unlike <3
SHIKAMARU
this man is a god at shogi but he absolutely SUCKSSSS at cup pong.
is this an ick? idk. but he is absolute trash at this game.
it gets even worse when he’s got a couple drinks in him
tries to calculate the velocity and acceleration and angle and shit but his shot is always a good two feet off BYE 😭
just mutters an “aw, shit” before awaiting his turn again
hates checkers, loves chess
“checkers is for WUSSIES” - shikamaru nara
i said this in another post, but he is Very Good at whistling
like that’s his hidden talent
can copy any tune with the perfect pitch and rhythm
speaking of, he can do really cool tricks with his tongue
like making a four leaf clover, touching the bridge of his nose with it, flipping it upside down, you name it
he has slanted, scrawled handwriting, to the point where it’s almost illegible
wbk he cheats in school SO OFTEN. but he never gets caught. he’s not stupid, he just couldn’t care less about his classes.
thinks weed and e-cigs are stupid, cigarettes are where it’s at
you just can’t replicate the feeling of taking a drag from a cig after a long, tiring day
plus he looks hella cool while doing it B)
INO
teaches the boyz™️ how to braid their hair
like they all gather in a circle around this feisty fashionista and fail attempt to braid their hair
sakura was just fuming in the sidelines
“OI, INO-PIG, THAT’S A DUTCH BRAID, NOT A FRENCH BRAID!!”
yeah, ino 🙄
the only one that can actually do it is neji because a) this man is talented af and b) he’s got the long hairrr
ino probably envies his thick, sleek hair because hE’S a bOy
also asks everyone for their blood type and zodiac signs and tells them if they’re compatible with her or not
and definitely judges you for your sign 😣
“oh, you’re a gemini? hmm, what a shame...”
makes bouquets for her favorite people and kin assigns everyone a flower
only assigns the pretty nice ones to the people she likes (sorry sakura, you’re out of luck)
one of her favorite hobbies is crafting! she’s really good with details and small things so she loves making those miniature dollhouses and stuff
also really good at watercoloring. especially painting flowers and landscapes
also i feel like she would be really good at playing any instrument because of her skilled hands
can play a badass flute solo. period.
CHOJI
would honestly rather die than get anywhere NEAR an asparagus
he just thinks they’re so gross and bitter and NOT SALTY
he always eats his yakiniku a little bit undercooked because he’s way too impatient to wait for it to cook fully. who do you think he is??
whenever he cloud gazes with shikamaru, when asked what he thinks a cloud looks like, he just says some sort of food
“oi, choji, what does that one look like to you?”
“a... yakiniku grill... with... pineapple rings on it! ooh, and a wagyu steak right there!”
he thinks pringles are an abomination to society. where’s the crisp? where’s the grease? where’s the saltiness?!!!
asks ino to teach him how to do his hair all fancy and the two of them devote an entire day learning different hairstyles
it’s his new favorite thing to do now :D
he really likes crayons!!!!
like he’ll write with them, draw with them, color with them, do everything with them
he’s even tried to eat them. he said they tasted good.
definitely had the 128 crayon pack WITH THE BUILT-IN SHARPENER, and everyone thought he was the coolest kid in town
he ate it UP, he even scored some bbq dates with the ladies
i also feel like he loves basketball, and he has a MEAN slam dunk
like his vertical isn’t that high, but the man can REACH
he loves when people laugh at him when he challenges them to a 1v1 and then proceeds to absolutely destroy them <3
NEJI
he seems like a cucumber kind of guy.
just cucumber
like i feel like he puts it in everything; soba, salads, sandwiches, his face, yeah
it’s mellow and cool, just like him!
speaking of, i feel like he lives for spa days and facials
it just lets him be alone in his little cucumber scented world for an hour or two and he gets damn clear skin from it as well
seriously he has PERFECT skin. flawless. not a single blemish. his cheeks feel like baby butts they’re so smooth.
i feel like he’d be a god at solving rubik’s cubes, don’t ask me why
like if anyone scrambled theirs on accident they would just take it to neji and he’d solve it in the blink of an eye
CAT PERSON!!! loves the little meow meows
who are we kidding, neji basically is a cat; agile, aloof, does silly things without trying to, very cute
he just feels akin to the little fuzzballs and he thinks petting cats are extremely therapeutic. good for the soul
he is a golf man. he would take his juniors golfing and everyone thinks he’s uncool. cmon neji let them go to the skate park at least T-T
also very good at karaoke, definitely surprised everyone once he got a few drinks in him since he started serenading you
LIGHTWEIGHT!!! do not get more than one shot of alcohol in him. he will go berserk.
i also feel like he’d really love photography; not taking pictures of people, but of nature
he loves taking a quiet stroll through a pretty forest and snapping pictures of all the unique flora and fauna
it’s so serene ︶ ‿ ︶
ROCK LEE
100% milly rocks everywhere
gai got in on it too once he asked what lee was doing
“is that what all the youthful cool kids do these days!”
they also dab together. a lot
DO NOT BE SEEN WITH THESE TWO!!! you are not associated with them.
definitely is the one breakdancing in the middle of the dance circle at a high school party
he’s mad skilled at it too
headspins and windmills galore
challenged naruto to a dance-off and completely OBLITERATED him
lee then asked if naruto wanted a rematch, this time with one hand tied behind lee’s back
naruto obliged, and he STILL lost
RIP naruto and his fangirls, they all scrambled to lee afterwards T-T
i feel like his favorite subject is science
not the boring physics equations and laws and theories but the fun EXPERIMENTS
definitely has singed all of his hair off one time and he went to gai blubbering to help him grow back his precious hair
but he loves experimenting with different combinations and chemicals to get different reactions each time
created a potent love potion and carried it around with him all day one day
and it was actually working
girls were flocking to him left and right, staring at his lips and his face
he was so abashed at the sudden attention
heck, it even worked on sakura
“oi, lee-san!”
“hehe, yes, sakura-san?”
her eyes shifted downwards to his lips and his heart thumped harder
“hey... lee-san?”
“what is it?”
“you have something on your lip. we’ve been trying to tell you all day but you just winked and blew kisses at us.”
legend has it lee has still not recovered to this day.
TENTEN
has THE prettiest handwriting. and she can write SUPER fast
it’s like a superpower
like she transcribed five pages of a report in less than two minutes with perfect handwriting
naruto is so jealous.
she is also super good at origami! those diligent, accurate hands aren’t just for throwing things
taught sakura how to make shurikens but does NOT endorse any violent uses of them
she can replicate all of her weapons with paper and they can actually function, it’s so cool
made paper kunai knives one day and the wholeee village wanted to get their hands on them
i feel like she’d listen to mitski. idk i just get those vibes
LOVES BIG DOGS!! especially fluffy wuffy samoyeds
like man’s best friend?? no, GIRL’S BEST FRIEND!!
hugs and cuddles and squishes all the big dogs
she thinks small dogs are spawns of satan
sakura and her have definitely quarreled over this
but at the end of the day, all dogs are adorable fur babies, so she lets it slide :,)
KIBA
kiba always looks SO GOOD in photos you take of him, candid or not
like you could just whip out a camera and snap a photo of him at any given moment and he would look perfect
you framed a picture of him yelling at akamaru for peeing inside the house
it’s pure artwork
i feel like he tries to swagger around with his hands shoved in his pockets but it fails MISERABLY and the girls are wondering if he broke his leg or something 😭
kiba just walk normally. for the love of god please just walk normally.
he tries to slump back in his chair really low but one time he slouched way too low so he slipped off of his chair and onto the ground LMFAOOOO
he just wallowed there... in shame...
also.. he LOVES when the girls put makeup on him!!
he tries to act like he hates it. but it secretly gives him so much confidence
not to mention the girls hyping him up are a huge ego boost
okay the inside of his jacket hood is the warmest. thing. EVER!!!
seriously, no wonder this dude is so happy-go-lucky all the time, he’s living in literal heaven 24/7
it’s like you’re sleeping on a cloud inside a warm, cozy bed during a cold winter morning
10/10 would recommend letting him give you his sweatshirt when you’re chillin with a hair tie ❤️
HINATA
always smells like lavender soap. always
also has the cutest pencil pouches with little puppy faces and kawaii things
oH and she has those mini yoobi highlighters, she thinks they’re so cute (and functional!)
everyone flocks to her to try them out and marvel at the cute tiny highlighters
and they try to steal them from her but she doesn’t even stop them because she’s too timid to 😭
naruto goes BALLISTIC over them
she lets him have all of them <3
tennis girl!!! tennis girl.
all of her opponents always underestimate her because she’s so timid and shy and quiet
but she has a KILLER serve
and then she takes her opponents to the slaughterhouse with a complete shutout ;)
she’s really athletic believe it or not, she can beat most of the boys in a mile run and she has incredible endurance
i feel like she really loves velvet scrunchies
she just thinks they’re so pretty and they keep her hair soft so they’re cute and functional
also takes the PRETTIEST notes!!
color codes, dividers, headers, you name it, it’s all super readable too its insane
everyone asks her for her notes, not to study but just to appreciate the pure artwork that it is ^w^
SHINO
shino is SO easy to prank
“how do you catch an eyemaster?” *cue naruto and kiba snickering*
“eyemaster bait. that is because—”
even when everyone’s laughing their asses off, he still continues to explain his answer since he does NOT GET THE JOKE
tried his hand at writing haikus
here’s his best one so far:
“Bugs are amazing. That is because they are bugs. Bugs are very nice.” - Shino Aburame
VERY proud of it, since it took him weeks to perfect
praise it, pls
had one of those ant farms and bug-catching kits as a kid
and he would fill the kit TO THE BRIM. LIKE IT WAS HEAVY BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY BUGS.
he loves the little chitters of the different bugs
he had jars of different bugs all lined up on a wall shelf in his room
collects silkworms off of trees and sticks them into his pockets (no i definitely did not do this as a kid...)
HELP I FEEL LIKE he would record a timelapse of his ant farm growing and upload it to youtube with a movie maker title screen that says
“my ants”

Hiya!! bros + side characters react to a werewolf mc???
Heya!! I’m not that great with the side characters yet unfortunately, which is why I’ve been avoiding them up to this point. 😭😭😭 I’ll try my best regardless!
~
Lucifer
What the f*ck.
Like actually what the f*ck. A werewolf?? Now he isn’t one to judge- out loud at least- but he can’t help but feel that this is at least a little odd. I guess werewolves are technically a hybrid of human and wolf...
There goes his chances of having a relatively quiet and calm year of this exchange program. Luckily though, you get along with Cerberus swimmingly.
He doesn’t want to compare you to a dog too often- he thinks it might be offensive to your kind. So instead, he treats you more like a human. Unless you ask for otherwise- and why would you? He can’t deny that your reaction to scratching behind your ears doesn’t get a bit of a rise out of him. It’s adorable.
Mammon
DOGGIE?! DOGGIE!
He’s wanted a dog for AGES now. Everyone says he’s too immature to be dedicated and take care of one though. But he has you! You’re just good doggie!
You constantly have to remind him that you aren’t a dog- you’re a werewolf. “I hear ya’ I hear ya’. Now who wants walkies?! You do! Yeah ya’ do!”
He’s attached to you very quickly. He probably does get it through his thick skull at some point that it’s rude to just treat you like a literal dog sometimes- he should leave that to Luke, really. So he does tone it down a bit at some point. He’s your best friend for life now, though.
Leviathan
Wow. It’s like that anime he wanted a little bit ago. Living with you anyways. Except its real, and sometimes it’s like hell.
You are only allowed in his room when you’re not covered in fur. It’s the only way to keep his bathtub bed from being hairy, and all his figurines from being being the same.
Otherwise, hanging out with you is kinda fun. He asks you sometimes what it’s like to be this way. Sometimes he thinks about writing fanfictions based on that one anime (One Day Suddenly A Werewolf Appeared in My House and Is Staying Here With Me and My Brothers and Help Why Are They So Friendly!?) with a more realistic approach.
You two aren’t exactly best friends, but you’re close enough. He knows not to show you cat videos, but at least you have those cute dog videos.
Satan
His first thought was something like “Jacob, is that you?” Then he cringed, because Twilight was a dark chapter in his life, for him.
He’s not THAT fond of werewolves... but his mind wanders back to the excitement of Mammon nearly getting a dog that one time for the family. He tolerates you, at the very least, but at the most, you two get along quite well.
Everyone suspected Satan as the cat-lover, but SURPRISE! His affinity to cats is merely his attraction to their perceived nature. He enjoys your company, especially if you don’t mind his occasional gushing about cats anyways.
As long as you’re well behaved around other animals (you’re from the Human Realm, no? You should be on your best behavior here.) he would enjoy taking you with him on his random outings, especially to cate cafes.
Asmodeus
Oh he can’t fucking wait to do your hair up in little bows and things like that.
He becomes the family groomer- aside from Beel anyway. He loves doing your claws, filing and painting them all these pretty colors that compliment your coat.
Speaking of coats- he’s a little self conscious about the fur coats he has in his closet. If you’re sensitive to those sorts of things, he will be mindful in the future to not wear them around you to not offend. He’s a demon, but he’s not an insensitive jerk! He LOVES you, silly!
Probably doesn’t treat you at all like a dog. In part because you probably get enough of that from Mammon, the pea-brained fool. Doesn’t he know that your true beauty is underneath the fuzzy soft fur!? I mean, just look at those eyes! They’re almost as beautiful as his!
Beelzebub
DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG-
He is BARELY. BARELY. Containing his excitement. If you remember correctly; YES! Beel is a dog lover. An avid one. He isn’t too fond of Cerberus himself, but you’re just his size. Fun sized werewolf. In his attempts at befriending you, he does bring home raw meats and dog treats.
You remind him that you are a werewolf and not a dog- and he calms down a bit. He still gives you tummy rubs after you’ve eaten plenty of food with him. He enjoys the time you two spend together on jogs. He never says it out loud, but it’s like he’s taking his dog for a walk.
He likes spending time with you by default. Please be friends with him. Please like him. He likes you too. You’re his new best buddy, and he’s never letting you go. Prepare for him to lift you up, and squeeze you with his suffocating love, werewolf!
Belphegor
Ya’ll replaced him with a werewolf? Lit.
He’s got a brand new pillow, and it’s name is MC. You two take naps regularly now, you can’t escape his exhausted death grip. He notices that you wag your tail a lot, especially when you’re excited.
He picks that habit up when he sees you. His brothers tease him about it, but he just tells them that they never noticed before. Suuuuure. Over 5,000 years and they’re just now noticing that little habit? Unlikely.
Regardless, he appreciates your company, and that you get along famously with his brothers- especially Beel. Though admittedly, he’s a bit worried that you will accidently scratch him while you two sleep. Nightmares must suck for you, but it certainly sucks for him too if you decided to kick with those claws out.
Diavolo
:D
Oh whose a good doggie? You are! Yes you are!!! Oh YES you are!! This is amazing!!!! The best day ever!!!! Who knew that when he planned this exchange program, a werewolf would end up here!?
He loves talking to you. What’s it like being a werewolf? Are you more human? More wolf? Do you shed? Do you-
Prepare to have the demon prince of hell pestering you and adoring you. You’re his new best friend, sorry Lucifer. Sorry Cerberus. Or rather, you, and he can go on strolls on Cerberus’s back! That would be lovely!
Barbatos
Please. Kill all the rats you find and make sure he doesn’t find them. He doesn’t care that you’re not a cat or anything. Just... do him this one favor.
Otherwise, he doesn’t mind your existence much. He finds the shenanigans you and the others get up to is quite funny, but is mindful and reserved on his teasing and manners around you.
He pampers you, and watches carefully for your interests. If you like certain things, he will be sure to list them down privately and bring them up when needed, the ever attentive and loyal butler he is.
Ok... so he might have a joke or two about you being a werewolf. They aren’t dog-themed, he promises. But would you like a treat? He’s specially baked one for you. It’s a nice cupcake. See? No dog jokes here! :)
Luke
Thank God everyone can stop making dog jokes about him now.
Wait, that was rude wasn’t it?! Forgive him! He loves animals! N-not that you’re an animal or anything, b-but...!
Graah! Forget it, okay?! He’s sorry. He’ll do better, and he’ll start by baking you some sweets. You know, Archangel Michael really likes sweets. He’s gotten pretty good at making them himself, so he’s sure you’ll like them as an apology!
He still gets teased about being a chihuahua, though. He is effectively, you’re puppy, as far as everyone else is concerned.
Solomon
Oh fuck. This is pretty cool.
He won’t stop making dog jokes. He can’t help himself, honestly. It’s too funny.
He appreciates that you don’t take his teasing too seriously, but he seems the least bit surprised that you are a werewolf.
If he comes at you with a fancy knife, he’s planning to make a sacrifice of you. Don’t hold back on this crazy sorcerer, please!
Simeon
Oh my. This wasn’t expected! This year should be most enjoyable!
:)
Will actually not make dog jokes. Unless you find them funny. He has a few dogshit ones to offer~
Like the others, he seems to see you as the superior to Luke. He’s your puppy, treat him well! Of course he’s teasing, all in good faith. He more than likely has inspiration to write in a character like you now. He does have a good point of reference for werewolves now thankfully!

ahh hi ! congrats on 600 omg, that’s such an amazing milestone !! do u think I could get some first time nsfw hcs for kuroo, oiwawa and kageyama? like it’s their s/o’s first time aha, I think I worded that kinda weird I’m sorry alsklssn
Mmm i love first time stories bc they can be dorky and cute!! Nsfw warning <3 also sorry these are very long
Kuroo Tetsurou
Before your relationship, Kuroo has had one other serious partner so he kind of knows the drill
When you to started getting really heated with your make outs and you told him you were a virgin he was completely cool with that! He wanted to make sure the two of you took your time so you'd never feel uncomfortable
You two do plenty of things before sex. You give him handjobs, he eats you out, you help each other get relief
But you haven't gone all the way yet, until the night after a comp
You didn't know if it was the adrenaline rush of winning that had him pumped, or the way he looked playing that had you shifting in your seat, but you two were all over each other
Nekoma was staying at a hotel, the boys were rooming in groups of three. Somehow kuroo convinced yaku and kai to stay with the 2nd years so you and him could have alone time (he has to take them for ramen to make up for it)
Neither of you expected it to escalate. You were all over each other, you straddling his waist and his hands flush over your skin, pushing your shirt up
But you were certain this would just end when you got too nervous about the boys one room away from you
Wrong. Absolutely wrong.
You were grinding against him hard, breaths shallow, getting lost in the heat of the moment
"I-" you choked out in between breaths. "I want you inside me."
Kuroo stopped to stare at you. "Are you sure? Y'know the guys are right there-"
"We'll just be quiet then," you cut him off with a kiss.
Kuroo wasted no time in shedding his clothes, you followed suit
It was only then you realized you'd never seen him fully naked before. You'd gotten him off, but usally his pants stayed on (or at least his shirt did)
Kuroo in his naked glory. Wooh. That was a lot to take in. And the way his eyes looked at you, drinking you up, you felt heat pooling in your core
Ever the gentleman, Kuroo wanted to prep you first (he was impressive). He uses his fingers, making sure to stretch you out nicely
Probably makes you orgasm just on his fingers so he can tease you about it later
And the whole time he's doing it you've got your hands clamped tightly over your mouth, trying to keep quiet. Kuroo delighted in the way your chest heaved and your neck tensed as you swallowed back moans
Once your prepped, he asks you one more time if you're certain you want to lose your virginity at a hotel in the middle of nowhere with his teammates on the other side.
You do, and he wastes no time in entering you (he had condoms with him just in case something like this happened)
He enters you slowly, giving you time to adjust
He likes sex rough and fast, but he knows right know is about you. Once he bottoms out and knows your good, he rocks himself back and forth slowly and gently
His cock is long, so even his little motions have you convulsing with pleasure
But as soon as you adjust, Kuroo starts to speed up. He can't help it, his patience and self control is thin
He's bucking into you fast when you come, but he's focused on riding out his own orgasm
There isn't much he can do for aftercare without the two of you being found out, so he just texts Yaku asking if they'd be able to stay in the 2nd years room for longer than planned
Yaku is like "yeah we can all tell you were going at it please shut up"
No one questions why you're limping the next day
Oikawa Tooru
I don't think Oikawa sleeps around, but he's definitely had a fuck buddy or two, as well as exclusive relationships
Safe to say, he's far more experienced out of the two of you
You're a little intimidated by it, but he assures you he wants nothing more than to treat you right
So with Oikawa you have to tell him when you're ready to have sex
When you do, he plans everything out. Gets his parents out of the house, sets the mood with candles and incense and everything and spoils you silly
Oikawa is a switch, but he likes to be a whiney sub. That being said, you need him right now and he intends to show you how much he can help
Is absolutely a giver. Worships your body, doesn't leave a single inch of skin un-kissed
His lips are all over you, your neck and breasts and stomach and thighs- everywhere
He doesn't leave marks (yet) because he wants to be loving and caring and for you to remeber your first time sweetly
When he finally sees you starting to relax under his touch and loosen up, he starts pressing kisses closer and closer to your core
Eats you out, and he is damn good at it. Eats you out like your pussy is the last meal he'll get to eat and, damn, he is trying to savor it
When you've come for the second time and you're whiney and needy, cheeks wet with tears, only then will he finally fuck you
Probably has flavored condoms, idk why i just need to include that
Oikawa has incredible self control, so he takes his pace incredibly slow. He's pushing into you slowly, and when he's finally all the way in his thrusts are long
The feeling of him inside you lingers, even as he backs away, and has you gasping for more
But even as you're cumming around his cock and squeezing him so damn well he doesn't waver
He keeps his pace slow and consistent, so much so you're going crazy
Praises you as he does it. "You're taking me so well, baby." "You feel so good, love." His words fill you with just as much pleasure as his actions
Doesn't make much noise until he finally comes, at which point he just lets out a low grumble. Frankly, it's uncharacteristic of him but he's doing all he can to keep the attention on you
King of aftercare. Runs you a bath, massages your muslces, and keeps asking you if you're alright
"Was that okay? Are you tired?" He's so insistent you're rolling your eyes
"I dunno, Tooru, I think we'll have to try again to make sure," you say lazily, still tired out from the multiple orgasms he ripped from you
Oikawa just smiles, running an arm up and down your side. "Let's rest for now, love. We can go again in the morning."
You hold him to his word.
Kageyama Tobio
Listen if you havent had sex yet, Kageyama definitely hasn't either
So you're both virgins, you're both clueless, and it ends up being kind of funny
Unlike Oikawa and Kuroo who both know to have a conversation before sex you and Kags are both flustered and confused
It was a pretty typical weekend, your parents weren't home so Kags came over to watch a movie. The two of you got into a heated makeout (again, fairly typical at this point) and as you were adjusting how you were sitting, kags hands tight around your waist and yours flush over his neck, you accidentally push onto his crotch
And Kageyama groans. Loudly. As in, he throws his headback and lets out a noise from the bottom of his chest
You freeze. He's never done that before. Soon, you notice the growing erection in his pants and you, very much a virgin, have no idea what to do
So the two of you sit there in silence, staring at each other, neither of you sure how to talk about this
"Should we-" "Did you-"
...
"I mean-" "we could-"
Finally you've had enough and you burst, going "are we about to have sex?"
And Kageyama is sitting there, straining against his pants like, "um, if you want?" bc he doesn't know how to explain exactly how eager he is although it's certainly almost obvious
"D-do you have condoms?"
Of course not. Neither of you were prepared for this. But if there's a day to lose your virginity, you'd much rather it be a weekend that your parents are out and you can take all the time you want
So you rush to the newest corner store to pick up condoms (but you're embarassed so you buy a bunch of snacks and sneak them in) and leave Kageyama sitting in your bed, with an erection
And Kags is there sitting there thinking "just wait for her to come back, she'll be back soon. Just distract yourself" and he tries to put the movie back on or think about volleyball or anything to calm his raging boner but then he thinks about you again and it all comes crashing back down
By the time you get back to your house, he's red and sweating all over and damn his pants are straining around his cock (he's a grower)
And you'd like to do everything you can to help him, really, but you're still absolutely confident so you walk into the room and go "uh, I've got condoms?"
And Kags is trying not to touch himself before you got there but as soon as he sees you he's feral
"Fuck [Y/N] come here-" and he's pulling you on top of him and ravishing you with his lips
As much as Kags wants to dominate you, he's feeling awfully needy right now so you end up doing all the work, stripping both of you of your clothes while Kageyama admires you and lays kisses all over your collarbone and chest
Finally you get to the underwear and you look at him one last time, settled between his thighs with your face dangerously close to his crotch and go "are you sure, Tobio?" with your big doe eyes
Kageyama thought he was about to cream himself in his boxers right there
He didn't, though, instead insisting you just get on with it and you did, popping out his cock (wincing, slightly, because you've never been this close to a penis and damn they're kinda...ugly...) and rolling a condom onto it
The first condom tore bc you didn't know what you were doing but fortunately you had a whole box to spare
And finally (Kags cannot stress this enough: finally) the both of you are ready (you haven't done much foreplay bc neither of you realized that's an option)
You end up riding him bc Kageyama just wants relief and he's gotten choked up with how hard he's gotten
And while it'd be magnificent to say the penetration was euphoric and you felt yourself fill up so well, it's also unrealistic
You just feel weird with something lodged between your legs. You're not really sure how it's supposed to feel so you just start moving
As it starts to feel good, Kags is bucking up into you at the same time and, fuck, it's just starting to get good-
And Kags cums. It's over way too fast and you've barely even gotten any pleasure but what did you expect?
Kageyama wants to apologize for not being better (even as he's sweating, hair plastered to his forehead and breath shallow and fuck thats hot) but you're just rubbing soothing circles over his shoulders
"It's fine, baby, we'll just have to practice more."
Well, he won't mind that

So you can, nice.
I been wandering if you could write something about a painful love triangle between iromatsu and a new neighbor they have met and become Friends with.
She is like the epic older sister type, but with some depression and emptiness. Best if her name was Irusu. She likes to pet the sextuplets.
ichimatsu happen to fall for her thinking she is similar to him and karamatsu falling for her strong personality thinking it was beautiful.
however when karamatsu realized that ichi love her too and saw how close they are. he had a emotional battle with himself not knowing if he should choose his happiness or his brother's, in the end he chose what he thought is the best for them all and immediately give up on her and start avoiding her not knowing that the girl actually have a crush on him (lot of details, ik)
eventually the girl got hurt from Karamatsu action and blamed her foolish messed up self.
Ichimatsu who know the girl's feelings get into a fight with karamatsu and they got injured both physically and emotionally.
I don't know about the ending tho, you can write whatever you want I'm only here to give pain to my heart.
It's a bit long so take your time and don't overdo it pls, love ya💙
ahahaha sorry, was the request "yo girl how much emotional Iromatsu shit can you fit into less than 3000 words?"
... the answer is literally all of it
this was fun, Iromatsu fighting hurts my heart but also I love it, that angst is delicious :D
I made the ending vague in order both to let people imagine their own ending AND to set up for a possible sequel if anybody wants one!
love ya too, I hope this is good for you *fingerguns*
-
For the first time in a long time, Akatsuka Ward has a new resident.
For the first time in an even longer time, she’s been hanging around the Matsuno sextuplets as if they’re her only friends.
As far as anyone else knows, that might be the truth. No one ever sees her with anyone else aside from the times she happens to work, and the brothers all seem incredibly fond of her, so there’s really no reason to find anyone else when she has six new friends.
Irusu is maybe a strange kind of young lady, but no stranger than the rest of Akatsuka’s inhabitants, to be fair. Around the sextuplets, she doesn’t really rest in making sure they’re all taken care of and happy.
She accompanies Osomatsu to the pachinko parlor, often putting her own money into the machines so he can play. She sits next to Karamatsu on the roof, listening to him play guitar and singing along. She collects magazine articles about idols and proudly sets them into Choromatsu’s hands when she comes over. She brings over food for Ichimatsu’s cats, giving little kissy noises as she feeds them. She always offers to play baseball with Jyushimatsu, even though it always leads to exhaustion later. She displays an incredible willingness to star in selfies with Totty and makes him laugh with silly poses.
And if she’s not doing any of those things, she’s got one of their heads in her lap, stroking through their hair. More than one fight has broken out over who gets to be petted the most on any given day.
All in all, they love having her around. It’s been so long since any of them had a real friend outside the family who treated them so kindly.
Is it really any wonder at least one of them ended up falling head over heels for her?
… Actually, is it really any wonder two of them did?
Neither of them is sure who fell first, though they’re not sure it really matters since they can’t really call ‘dibs’ on a person. All they know is that Ichimatsu is drawn to the similarities between himself and Irusu, sensing a kind of heavy-weighing sadness and darkness inside her that’s not unlike his own… and that Karamatsu is pulled in by her strength and kindness, in awe of someone who can be so brave even when she’s suffering herself.
For the month or so after Karamatsu became aware of his little brother’s feelings, he’s been wrestling with his own heart. What kind of horrible older brother would he be if he stole the affections of someone Ichimatsu’s heart is also pining after? Can he even set aside his own selfish emotions when he’s never quite felt like this for someone before?
The whole thing is just awful. Often as brothers they would playfully fight over Totoko, and yet this is… different. This isn’t Totoko. It’s Irusu. It’s someone that one of them might actually have a shot with.
What is he supposed to do? For once in his life, he wants to step up and have a chance, to not immediately give in to his generosity and wanting his little brother to be happy. He wants to be happy. It’s a shame that he does want Ichimatsu to be happy, too. At the very least, he doesn’t want his happiness to have a hand in Ichimatsu’s pain.
He thinks too long and too hard. Every cheesy romantic line that he aims at Irusu and every time she smiles at him ― it’s getting more difficult to take. Every time she caresses his head. Every hug they share.
Every time he notices Ichimatsu tense up whenever Karamatsu flirts with Irusu. Every time Ichimatsu clenches his fists when she’s charmed by something Karamatsu does or says. Every time he looks angry and insecure when she calls him ‘Irusu boy’ and proclaims herself ‘Karamatsu girl’, even if it’s probably just a joke.
Those are the things he thinks he notices more than any of Irusu’s reactions.
He wants so much to be selfish, to not care how his brother feels. The unfortunate truth is that he does. More than anything, he loves all of his brothers, Ichimatsu included. If something he does is going to hurt one of them, then he doesn’t want to do it.
So last night, he did something that he didn’t truly want to do. As Irusu was leaving, he kissed her hand and told her, in a rather solemn tone devoid of his usual theatrics, “Ichimatsu would probably like it if you asked him out.”
With that, he felt like things were in place. He would keep his distance from her, Ichimatsu would get a chance to be happy with her, and… Karamatsu was sure he would find someone else eventually. The biggest problem was that in order for it not to be so painful for him, he would have to try to avoid Irusu as much as possible.
No more hugs. No more being petted. No more pretty smiles in his direction.
It’s only been a few days of it by this point. However, it’s not easy. Even though he thinks this is the best thing, that he’ll stop craving her attention at some point, right now he still wants it. Losing the closeness they’ve all become used to is one of the worst things he can think of, and it’s happening, and he’s so sure it’s the right thing…
It just sucks that the right thing can hurt so badly.
At least his little brother will have a shot at happiness.
-
Ichimatsu, on the other hand, is pissed.
He’s sure he must have been this angry at some other point in his life, although he can’t really remember this kind of fury burning him up from the inside. It’s probably been a while since he felt anything other than a boiling of annoyance.
He has a hard time with Karamatsu, that much is for sure, but he knows Karamatsu well enough. The man is a goody-goody, or at least he pretends to be, so he’d never do something like, say, step on Ichimatsu’s toes over a girl they both like. That much is certain.
Except the issue with backing off is that in the process, he’s managed to lodge a big, painful arrow in Irusu’s feelings. That is something Ichimatsu can’t just ignore or let slide.
Why would he do this, anyway? If he was going to let Ichimatsu have a chance with her, fine… how come he had to just start brushing her off, though? What, does he think he can’t even be friends with her in order to let Ichimatsu shoot his shot? The hell is wrong with that dumbass?
This is where his dangerous nature comes in handy, at the very least. He can’t act too scary around Irusu or he risks her being afraid of him. Karamatsu is another story.
Which is good, because he thinks his big, stupid brother needs a scare to make him realize what the hell he’s doing.
Not only is he taking away Ichimatsu’s chance of winning Irusu’s affection fairly, instead of being the ‘runner-up’ like he’s been his whole life, Karamatsu is also hurting her. She’s talked about this to Ichimatsu, and she thinks that this is somehow her fault.
She thinks she’s too messed up and Karamatsu has just lost interest in her, that she did something which turned him off. The way she buried her face in Ichimatsu’s shoulder, mumbling tearfully that she should have known Karamatsu couldn’t possibly like her the way she liked him, is a memory he thinks is going to be burned in his mind forever.
He’s mad at Karamatsu more than he’s ever been in his life. He thinks he’s doing a nice thing stepping aside and trying to give Ichimatsu a chance, but if it hurts Irusu, he doesn’t want that chance. It matters what she wants more than anything, so if she likes and wants Karamatsu, if it’s putting her in pain to have him treat her dismissively, then Ichimatsu isn’t going to just stand by. He’s gonna do something about it.
Of course, perhaps he could have been a little more composed about it than to simply walk up to Karamatsu and punch him in the face. That said, nobody ever accused Ichimatsu of being subtle.
The hit was hard enough to leave his hand aching, so as soon as it connects, he pulls his fist back and rubs at his knuckles. It hurts, yeah. There’s more important stuff than that right now, though. He stares down at his brother, who’s on the floor trying to recover, and for a long moment, doesn’t do anything except glare.
Karamatsu, meanwhile, is pinching his nose shut in an attempt to stop the bleeding from being punched in the Goddamn face without any warning. To say he wasn’t expecting the blow would be an understatement. Even when he gingerly draws his hand away with a wince, everything still throbs. “Ichimatsu, what the hell was that for?!”
“You’re an ass,” Ichimatsu hisses, taking a step closer. “You think I need your fucking pity, huh? You think the only way Irusu would choose to go out with me is because you gracefully bowed out? You’re full of shit!”
Karamatsu is on his feet in a few seconds, only to just barely catch another fist thrown at him. His arm shakes with the muscle strain of holding back his little brother’s ire. “What are you… are you angry at me for taking myself out of the running?! Any other time, you’d be eliminating the competition yourself!”
Ichimatsu throws a punch with his other hand, though it’s caught just the same. There’s too much rage and adrenaline flooding through him, and Karamatsu can’t hold him back forever. “You think you’re doing me some kind of favor?! That’s just so like you! You’ve gotta be the hero right? You stupid, chūnibyō loser! You’re the saintly big brother and I’m the pathetic jackass and you’ve just gotta help me!”
“Wha… h-hey! That’s not what I think or what I’m trying to do!” It’s starting to become difficult to keep a grip on Ichimatsu’s hands, so in a desperate bid for some space, he shoves Ichimatsu back… maybe with a little more force than he may have used otherwise. “I care about you, Ichimatsu! You deserve to have a chance, and I know she likes you, and I just thought… if I allowed her to focus on you, I wouldn’t distract her!”
Ichimatsu ends up flat on his ass, although he’s back up in only a second. “You didn’t distract her, you motherfucker! You hurt her feelings! Who cares if she likes me?! She likes you! But as usual, you had to go and fuck everything up for everybody because you were trying to ‘help’!”
This time when he lunges forward, Karamatsu is ready and they end up grappling like two bucks locking antlers. Nobody really has the upper hand unless one counts that Ichimatsu is putting a little more physical force into it; the emotional toll it’s taking on Karamatsu is obvious, though.
“She never told me anything about that!” His arms quiver as he tries to plant his feet so that Ichimatsu can’t just brute force his way through this fight.
“Should she have had to?! You said she likes me, but she’s never said that, so you could obviously read her to know she likes me! You couldn’t tell she likes you, too?! And so what?!” Ichimatsu rocks forward in an attempt to knock Karamatsu off balance. “Even if she didn’t like you that way, you think blowing her off like you’ve been doing wouldn’t hurt a friend?!”
He winds back and goes in for another punch. “You’re not a good person! You know what you are? You know what I see when I look at you, what everyone else sees when they look at you? A stupid, painful, selfish, sorry excuse for a big brother!”
Something about those words makes Karamatsu freeze. The hit lands full-force, kickstarting the bloody nose that had just stopped a moment ago. Sparks dance around his insides, prompting him to gain back awareness enough to reciprocate the blow.
Before either of them know it, they’re rolling around on the floor, kicking and hitting each other and shouting the worst things they can think of.
“Excruciating bastard!”
“Antisocial asshole!”
“Self-centered, holier-than-thou shitbag!”
“Emotionally constipated, ungrateful bitch!”
“You don’t deserve to be anyone’s older brother! You don’t deserve to be anyone’s brother, period! You deserve to be alone, because nobody should ever have to deal with you and your fucking tryhard bullshit!”
“Oh, and you’re so easy to deal with?! All any of us do is give and give and you don’t give us anything in return! Being an apathetic misanthrope doesn’t make you interesting or special, it just makes you an edgelord!”
“Edgelord, huh? Must run in the family, because you’re even edgier than I am!”
“Maybe, but at least I don’t shut everyone out and act like my brothers don’t love me!”
“Oh, you’re psychoanalyzing me now?! Fuck off! Actually, just die!”
“Is that what you say to everything?! You die first and I might consider it!”
“Great! I’m glad to die! I’ve got a noose and a beam all picked out! As long as I get to choose how you die, I’m ready when you are, asshole!”
“Please! As if I’m going to let you do something like that! What the hell is wrong with you, Ichimatsu?!”
It seems to be the turn in that direction that causes the two of them to start to lose steam. The decline is quick as all the anger between both men crystallizes into fatigue and anguish.
Karamatsu rolls over from where he ended up above Ichimatsu, and Ichimatsu lets his whole body go limp. They lie there for what feels like forever, breathing heavily, covered in new bruises and scratches and flecks of blood, too tired to fire any more shots at one another.
They lie side by side, and when Karamatsu looks over, he sees through his own blurry vision that there are tears in the corners of Ichimatsu’s eyes.
His heart leaps into his throat.
He doesn’t know how else this could have turned out, but it’s undeniable that things have gone way too far, as they always do with any of the sextuplets.
“Ichimatsu…” He reaches for his little brother, only for Ichimatsu to pull violently away and curl into a ball. It hurts, mainly because he knows that’s what Ichimatsu does when he wants the entire world to leave him be. This time, it’s Karamatsu’s fault.
“Fuck off, Shittymatsu,” Ichimatsu mumbles. It’s through experience that Karamatsu can tell he’s starting to cry; that break in his voice might not be evident to anyone except his brothers. “Whatever you’re going to say, I don’t wanna hear it. I don’t care.”
Karamatsu huffs. “Well, you should care. We can’t do this shit, Ichimatsu. What’s wrong with us? It’s not normal for brothers to fight like this. We just beat each other up. Over a woman. … A stunning woman, but―”
“You’re a fucking idiot,” Ichimatsu interrupts. “Are there rocks in your Goddamn head? Do you really think this is just about Irusu? Don’t pretend this wouldn’t have happened at some point even if she never came into our lives. We’re fucking losers who don’t know how to get along and she’s just the latest thing we’re fighting about. We’re both shitheads. Neither of us deserves her.”
Well, at least they can agree on that.
Despite the fact that Ichimatsu doesn’t turn to look at him, not even a little, Karamatsu keeps a hand on his little brother’s back. That Ichimatsu doesn’t push him away or scream for Karamatsu to get off is a good sign.
Although, there aren’t enough good signs to just magically fix this. There’s still so much wrong with the entire situation and nothing is going to tie it up with a neat bow.
They lie next to each other in silence for a long time. Gradually, the tension starts to drain out of Ichimatsu’s body, the more seconds tick by without Karamatsu moving away. His muscles continue to relax until he’s bled out of fury, until he realizes that he doesn’t wantto be mad at his big brother.
The anger isn’t just going to vanish from either of them. It’s not going to disappear because they don’t want to be angry at each other. Their exhaustion bringing true feelings out of the shadows, however, is better than making believe they would prefer staying angry.
“I’m sorry,” Karamatsu finally says. His voice is smaller than usual and breathy and sounds cracked in half by the time he speaks up.
At last, Ichimatsu rolls over onto his back with a grunt. “… I’m sorry, too.”
Karamatsu sighs and shifts his hand away to give his younger brother space. “We really are a couple of pathetic creatures, aren’t we?”
“Yep, we’re shitty.”
“The shittiest.”
They both fall silent for another moment or two. This time, it’s Ichimatsu who breaks the quiet. “What… do we do now?”
There are too many thoughts swirling around Karamatsu’s head. And he would assume in Ichimatsu’s head as well. Everything is tumulting around in an unorganized mess, too much to put together any kind of real plan.
What do they do about what,anyway? About Irusu and who gets to have a chance with her? About their own broken relationship?
Neither of them really knows what to do about anything.
“I think,” Karamatsu hums, “we should patch up our wounds before anything else.”
So Ichimatsu nods.
It’s not going to solve any of their real problems, but it’s as good a place to start as any.

alright this might be a lil late for this specific request but how would the yugioh bois react to their s/o wanting to do a cute matching Halloween costume couple thing with them? 😳💕
I'm still not done with spooky season 🥺
Tumblr media
Yugi Muto:
Honestly he probably be the in to bring it up first, so needless to say he will thrilled when you agree.
He didnt want to do anything traditional, he wanted to stand out. So the two of you agreed to go as your D&D characters.
It took a lot of time and effort but at the end it the result was so great that all your friends were impressed.
He was his Warlock Albus, and you went as your white knight (c/n)
Tumblr media
Yami/Atem:
He loves the idea of doing match costumes with you, and just walking around. So when you ask him he donest hesitate to say yes.
He is the definition of "if me and my boo dont dress up as dark magician and dark magician girl, and walk around with your friends of Halloween having a good time....I dont want it"
Your costumes are so accurate to the duel monsters themselves that you guys won the costume contest.
He also realized how good in skirt you look.
Tumblr media
Joey Wheeler:
As soon as october hit he was already making couple costume plans. In face he was the one who asked you.
He first suggested that you guys do a baby dragon, and time wizard costume combo, but that didnt go well with you.
In the end you decided to go as Link and Zelda (tho people kept asking him if he was Celtic guardian)
Next year however he swore that you guys were gonna do his idea.
Tumblr media
Tristan Taylor:
He honestly didnt much thought into couple costumes. The group always had a theme they were going with. So when you asked him he was a bit hesitant but agreed.
Honestly he didnt have an opinion on what the theme should be so you had to do most of the picking.
This year the two of you went as Superman and Lois lane.
Through out the night he would pick you up and run around yelling that he was saving you.
Tumblr media
Duke Devlin:
He also adores the idea of couple costumes, so it just so happens when he asks you ask him.
Unlike the others however, he likes being on the silly side of things. So when he suggests a costume he wants to do stuff like left and right twix, or pencil and sharpener.
You decided to go with his ideas, and it was the funniest halloween, and he vows next year was gonna be better.
You have never been so excited for Halloween until now
Tumblr media
Seto Kaiba:
Its extremely difficult to get him to do anything for Halloween. He is too busy to deal with a childish holiday.
You and mokuba have to force out of his office and into a costume. He resisted as much as he could, but It didnt last long.
You, mokuba, and Seto all went as blue eyes (it was mokuba's idea). Mokuba was usually ahead of you two excited for the candy he was gonna have while you dragged Seto with you.
He will never admit but he had a great time, and would definitely go again.
Tumblr media
Bakura Ryou:
The thought of Halloween scares Ryou a bit, he dont want Bakura scaring too many people. However when you suggest going as a couple he knows it will okay.
As a gag that only you and his friends would understand yeah decided to go as Dr Jekyll and yami as Mr hyde, while you go as Utterson.
Since yugi was having a little get together with his friends you and Ryou joined for a bit before heading off to do your own thing.
Though Bakura took over once or twice Ryou didnt mind. He had a fantastic night with you and is looking forward to next year.
Tumblr media
Yami Bakura:
He didnt have a choice in the matter since he still shares a body with Ryou, but let me tell you he liked the role of Hyde.
He got to act like he wanted to without it seeming weird. His favorite was scaring the pharaoh and his friends, and would do it if he had the chance.
Thought Ryou got a lot of sweets from the nights festivities you were still the sweetest thing to him.
Because of that though you guys didnt stay outdoors long before he took back to his house for a few tricks of his own.
Tumblr media
Marik Ishtar:
Marik isnt use to this holiday so you will have to explain to him, and when you bring up couple costumes you can see his eyes light up.
It will take some time, but you guys decided to go as The Phantom and Christine Daae.
Honestly he is still confused about prospect of the holiday, but enjoys running around in costumes with getting free candy.
By the end of the night he is already planning for next year.
Tumblr media
Yami Marik:
Yami Marik doesnt care much for the holiday. So it might take some convincing to get him to couple costume.
When you do get to do it with you it will have to be scary, something that would scare anyone who would come your way.
You wanted to go around and get some candy to snack on, but all yami wanted to do was terrorize the kids of Domino city.
Just dont leave while he's doing it or you will be next on his list.
Care to buy me a Ko-fi??

Ace Attorney case tier list
so, in the past year, i finished replaying games 1 through 5 for the first time in forever, and also played game 6 for the first time ever
so here’s where i ruthlessly rank each of the cases based on that most scientific metric of all, My Opinions:
OPENING CASES
S-tier: Turnabout Trump (4-1).  I already knew this case, and I still gasped with surprise when Phoenix showed up, and when Kristoph showed his true colors, and when Apollo realized OH SHIT OH FUCK I REALLY AM ACCUSING MY BOSS OF MURDER HUH... what a wonderful, splashy, shockingly concise case to open up the post-O.G. trilogy world.  Marvelous.
A-tier: Turnabout Memories (3-1).  Seeing Mia Fey (finally!) in action is a long-awaited delight; seeing Phoenix being a total dumbass was an unexpected-yet-perfect and fitting delight.
B-tier: The First Turnabout (1-1).  Solid lil’ case with some conventional-but-well-executed humor.  I’ve got a soft spot for Larry Butz.
C-tier: The Lost Turnabout (2-1), The Foreign Turnabout (6-1).  The former’s fine but a little forgettable; the latter has some fun gags (Payne’s ridiculous new outfit, dude absolutely shredding on the mandolin, etc) but is marred by how uh... kinda silly the game’s core conceit is, lol
E-tier: Turnabout Countdown (5-1).  The context surrounding this introduction is just sloppy (badly handled in media res + let’s lowkey retcon game 4 isn’t a great setup), and also the case itself is just. irksome. ted tonate is just fundamentally irritating to look at
FINALE CASES
S-tier: Bridge to the Turnabout (3-5), Turnabout Goodbyes (1-4).  No explanation needed.  God they fuck so hard
A-tier: The Cosmic Turnabout + Turnabout for Tomorrow (5-4 + 5-5), Turnabout Succession (4-4).
The former two cases are what makes AA5 worth it, and they make for a tremendously fun ride.  It fumbles the execution in some notable ways (Apollo’s sudden j’accuse moment feels a little forced/awkward/inadequately foreshadowed, and damn it sure would’ve been nice to know Clay Terran at all before he died, and also The Phantom’s final meltdown could’ve used a bit more emotional heft)... but okay let’s be real, I’m here for Simon Blackquill, and this case gives me so much of him so who gives a shit.  (And Aura!  Condescending obnoxious engineering queen!  I love her!)  
As for Turnabout Succession... while I earnestly wish the game had explored more of Klavier’s feelings about this whole setup, and some more emotional beats for Apollo, the case still makes for such a satisfyingly twisty and fun investigation overall (the poison stamp! what a ridiculous murder method! I love it!) that it’s a more-than-worthy finale.
B-tier: Turnabout Revolution (6-5), Farewell, My Turnabout (2-4).
The former does some cool stuff—I particularly like the opening half, where Apollo’s being real snippy and coping with Frankly Bizarre Dad Feelings, and giving Apollo a chance to finally throw down against Phoenix is a blast.  The latter half of the case starts feeling a little... ridiculous? cramped? idk? like, they didn’t do nearly enough foreshadowing about Nahyuta’s whole deal for me to care about his drama, this justice system is so obviously silly and the manner in which the revolution is playing out strains my already-suspended-sky-high disbelief... fun, and flashy, but more noise than signal in the last part, I guess.
As for Farewell, My Turnabout: of course I love Edgeworth rolling back into court goin’ through SOME kind of bizarre emotional arc of Hey I’m Totally Healed Now and obnoxiously preaching about Truth TM.  And it’s cool that the game set up a case where you want to lose.  But the net result is a bit strange tonally—it’s trying set up some kind of message about It’s Not Just About Winning, It’s About Pursuing The Truth, but it feels really muddled when that’s combined with Okay But Maya’s Literally Being Held Hostage Like Right Now, Surely A Reasonable Justice System Has A Process For Dealing With This Obviously Complicated Situation, Right?
but also Franziska takes a fucking bullet (how did I forget about that) and then gets to roll in like Ms. Save The Day so, really, lots of good shit here
FILLER CASES
S-tier: Reunion, and Turnabout (2-2), Turnabout Beginnings (3-4).  Look, the first one gives me all the Fey family drama a girl could ask for, and the latter gives me young Edgeworth being a total shit in an obnoxiously shimmery outfit.  The whole enchilada is here
A+ tier: The Magical Turnabout (6-2).  DELIGHTFUL!  MAGICIAN!  SHENANIGANS!  Like you get to guess the trick behind a magic act as part of the case, how fucking fun is that, and also the Apollo & Athena duo’s chemistry is perfect, the villain is a FANTASTIC bastard, and even the bit characters you meet during the investigation are total delights... Probably the best “standalone” case in the series, in that it doesn’t rely on any emotional connections to previous cases (unlike 2-2 and 3-4) to still totally and completely rule.
A tier: Turnabout Samurai (1-3), Turnabout Reclaimed (5-DLC).
For Turnabout Samurai, I remembered before this replay how delightful the TV SHOW STUDIO investigation and actor-fandom stuff was; I had TOTALLY forgotten Vasquez calling in her mob connections to try and wreck you.  What a fantastic villain; what a fun case.
Turnabout Reclaimed is just good solid goofy nonsense.  Probably receives a boost for me in particular because, yeah, Simon Blackquill.  But then again who isn’t giving cases a boost on that account; they are MISSING OUT
B tier: The Stolen Turnabout (3-2).  Ron and Desirée are so great sighs into hands
C tier: Listing roughly in order of preference: Turnabout Academy (5-3), Turnabout Serenade (4-3), Turnabout Sisters (1-2), Recipe for a Turnabout (3-3), Rite of the Turnabout (6-3), Rise from the Ashes (1-5).
Four of these (5-3, 4-3, 1-2, 3-3) are perfectly solid cases; I just don’t love them quite as much as “thievery hijinks” or “Hollywood hijinks” or other such particularly delightful flavors.  Everyone has a favorite flavor of Jolly Rancher and all that.
Rite of the Turnabout is interesting and connected with the larger themes of the game in a cool way, and makes good use of the divination mechanic.  However, the last bit gets twisty enough to actually be kind of confusing, and said larger themes of the game are... kinda hard for me to take seriously... which, yeah, leads to it feeling a little stilted when it really should be singing.
Rise from the Ashes landed awkwardly for me.  I know it was added well after the first game’s release, and it does a good job of continuing some of the cool stuff from that game—it’s neat, in isolation, to see Phoenix and Edgeworth working together (while still sniping at each other!), and some of the DS-specific mechanics are neat.  However, I just didn’t feel like I learned quite enough about Ema and Lana to care about them like I should, and retconning “(almost certainly true) rumors that Edgeworth was involved in Shady Shit TM” into “actually Edgeworth was totally ignorant of Shady Shit TM, like at worst his crime was willful ignorance / incuriosity, he was just been manipulated by the Police Chief”... makes Edgeworth less interesting to me!  Like, it’s cool to see Edgeworth caught off-guard and under pressure, but I wish the circumstances had been different?  Also Gant’s theme song is annoying as shit, which is petty but hey this is my blog post so
D tier: Turnabout Storyteller (6-4), Turnabout Corner (4-2), Turnabout Big Top (2-3), The Monstrous Turnabout (5-2).
Turnabout Storyteller has some fun gags with My Dude Simon and also Taka, but was heavily marred by Everyone Talking Down To Athena The Entire Fucking Case Oh My God Can You All Just Shut Up.
Turnabout Corner has... lots of fun elements but... look the fucking stolen-panties setup just grates ok
I don’t think I hate Turnabout Big Top the way most people seem to, but I did find the final murder setup more annoying that I remembered this playthrough—bro you were really sure the dude was going to conveniently stand right there and the heavy statue was definitely going to strike a killing blow and not just give the guy a concussion?  ok lol
The Monstrous Turnabout suffers mostly from poor puzzle/investigation design, being too hand-hold-y, and also having a core gimmick/setting that just wasn’t really my thing.  Alas!

House Rivals are just exciting
@dukeceitweek
(Snakes)
Janus and Remus have had an unlikely friendship, with their Hogwarts houses being known rivals. There could be more to their friendship
Pairing: Janus x Remus
Wordcount: 3187
Warnings: suggestive themes
“Hey there Double D!”
Janus rolled his eyes as Remus sat across from him at the Slytherin table. Which of course was followed by stares and whispering as though Remus hadn’t been doing this carelessly for years.
“Hello, Remus.”
It was almost funny how it started.
Janus had been one of those bright eye incoming first years, new to the magical world but not oblivious to it. You couldn’t exactly be completely in the dark when half of your face was covered in snake scales due to your dead-beat magical Dad’s farewell curse as a final F you to his muggle mother. Yet, he had discovered right away that even in the magical world, he was an outcast because of his face.
This kid, an energetic thing, had sprung into his lonely cabin before the train left, sitting too close, and asking excited questions about the snake scales on his face. Janus had just been too bewildered at the reaction at the time to be offended. His look alike that followed him was less thrilled to join Janus in the cabin, although he didn’t keep Remus from his excited babble.
For some reason, nobody was surprised Janus ended up in Slytherin, although at the time Janus wasn’t sure why considering nobody knew him yet. It’s not like anybody had told him about the house reputations. His mother, while supportive of him, was also in the dark.
He was shown pretty early though about the house rivalry with Gryffindor. He would say the description of that house’s occupants did seem rather annoying. However, when Remus still came up to Janus after sorting, with them now in rivaling houses, Janus couldn’t help feel some fondness for the weird boy. It’s not like Janus ever cared about sticking to what people expected anyways. His friend Remy, also a Slytherin, didn’t really get it, but at least he didn’t give Janus a hard time about it, unlike others in their house.
Remus wiggled in his seat, somehow still having that restless energy even though he really wasn’t a child anymore.
“Soo, what are you up to today~?”
Janus raised an eyebrow at him,
“Nothing exciting is on the agenda. Probably some studying, maybe see if I can somehow get approval to visit with the snakes, again.”
Remus let out a raspberry at that. “Boo. That’s boring. We should do something together!” He stood up dramatically with his last statement. Janus sighed at the attention he was drawing to them.
“Well, unfortunately, our N.E.W.T. exams are coming up and I actually care about how I do on them.”
Remus had given a variety of answers over the years when asked what he wanted to do after school, so nobody was really sure what he actually wanted to do, or how seriously he took his classes because of that.
Remus pouted. “Well…I could keep you company while you study? Maybe we can study together!”
Janus smirked at him.
“I can’t picture you sitting still to study. I appreciate the sentiment, but I am pretty sure you would just be distracting."
Remus frowned, but it seemed less playful then earlier."
“Ok well…I’ll just see you around then.”
Janus hmmed and waved as Remus stood up and walked away, to his twin who had been waiting for him off to the side.
Janus looked up to see Remy giving him a look with a raised eyebrow.
“What?”
Remy rolled his eyes.
“What do you mean what? I can’t believe you haven’t caught on yet.”
“Caught on to what?”
Remy huffed out a dramatic sigh then leaned towards him.
“Uh, that Remus has a major crush on you?”
Janus blinked.
“What?”
Remy gave him a ‘really?’ look.
“Uh yeah. C’mon girl, it is soo~ obvious. That boy has had it bad for you for a while.”
“Wha- why do you say that? He has been the same crazy Remus he always is.”
“Uh huh…tell me, has he been asking to hang out with you more since you first became friends?”
“Yeah, but I’m pretty sure it’s normal for a friendship to increase.”
“Oh my gosh, okay, let me put it this way, has he asked to spend time with you, just the two of you, more?”
“…yes.”
“Mhm~.”
“But, that alone can’t mean that he likes me!”
“Gurl, there are so many signs, like it ain’t even funny. I am pretty sure he’s been flirting with you for years.”
“Wha- what do you mean?”
“I am not going to point out every single time he has flirted with you, it’ s too much. I think part of you knows anyways. How much has he made an innuendo directed at you?”
“But that’s just Remus being Remus.”
“Uhuh, and has he said those towards anyone else?”
Janus paused, as he tried to recall if he had. None came to mind.
“You’re realizing it, aren’t you?”
Janus opened his mouth, but found he didn’t know what to say.
“Well?”
Janus looked back at him.
“Well what?”
“Well, what are you going to do about it?”
“What do you mean what am I going to do about it? Why do I have to?”
“Seriously? Okay, if you care about him, which you haven’t actually said, but I know you stopped denying forever ago, you need to be real with him on how you feel towards him, whatever way that may be, cause with the rate he’s going, he is going to ask you out directly sooner rather than later.”
Janus pursed his lips. He would have to think about this.
Luckily, Remy didn’t push him any more after Janus came to the realization about Remus liking him. After all, they did actually have to study, and Remy was surprisingly focused with him.
Yet, Janus found he couldn’t stop thinking about what Remy said. How did he feel about Remus?
* He found he was thinking of Remus more lately since that conversation with Remy.
“Hey hey, sexy scales!”
Janus actually jumped next time Remus talked to him. Remus paused, still smiling, but brows furrowed some in confusion.
“Er, you good? I didn’t expect to startle you.”
Neither had Janus. Yet somehow, thinking about what Remy said made him feel all the more awkward around Remus. He looked to see the direction Remus' eyes went as they looked at each other, and had trouble looking Remus in the eye. He cleared his throat and awkwardly laughed,
“Eheh, yeah. I was just, you know, in school mode. Barely breaking from studying for those tests, lowers my reaction expectations or something.”
Oh gosh, had he ever sounded awkward? What happened to his usual suave way of speaking!?
Remus still looked at him in puzzlement, not seeming convinced.
“Okaay…you must really need a break then.” And he came closer, like he usually did, because Remus had never seemed to have a sense of a personal bubble. A fact which Janus was way more aware of now.
Janus cleared his throat again, and shifted awkwardly.
“Uh well, maybe, but we’re about to go to class so now’s clearly not the time. See you later!” and he sped off. Janus felt utterly mortified at that interaction.
What the heck was his deal? Remus was just being Remus. Why did he act like that when nothing had changed? Or had they? Janus was usually not self-conscious around Remus. His ridiculousness made it hard to be. That made Janus feel even sillier. He just, didn’t know how to be around Remus at that point. Flustered for no reason, he felt silly.
For some reason, the Slytherins and Gryffindor’s always shared some classes. So seeing Remus was unavoidable. If Remy was in class with him, Remus usually partnered with his brother Roman and sat right by them.
Janus walked in and quickly sat in his seat. Remy gave him a look. Janus started to get his stuff, as though he was merely focused.
Yet he felt very aware of when Remus entered the room, unsurprisingly late, and sat behind him. How close was he? Was he watching him? Is that why he sits behind them? It made Janus feel awkward now in a way that he hadn’t before.
During a pause from notes to do an activity, Remy leaned over.
“Dude, what’s your deal?”
“W-what do you mean?” Janus asked, then mumbled a curse to himself at the stutter. Remy sighed.
“Is this about what I said the other day?” Remy whispered. Janus didn’t answer. Remy sighed. Thankfully, Remy let it go then so they got back to their school work.
Many of Janus’ encounters with Remus went like that interaction in the hallway.
The innuendos and flirty remarks affected Janus in a way they hadn’t before. He tried to put it off.
Had Janus ever thought much about dating or sexuality related things before? Apparently not, at least not when there was a real possibility that someone wanted to be with him. Of course after thinking about what Remy told him, Janus did think he saw the signs that Remus liked him. Also, lately Remus had seemed more nervous with his suggestive comments and whenever he was soft with Janus. Which Janus didn’t get, they’d been friends for years. Janus was used to his comments, or at least he had been. There had also been a few times where Remus had asked to do something just the two of them, which Janus usually fled from.
He felt like he was going crazy. What was going on with him? Remy definitely noticed. It would be embarrassing if Remus had too, although Janus wouldn’t be too surprised at this point. Part of him wanted to hide away cause he felt like he was ridiculous. Unfortunately, you couldn’t get much privacy at Hogwarts. So, he kept using the studying excuse, which likely wouldn’t work forever.
“You shouldn’t keep running from him, you know.” Remy finally said at one point.
Janus groaned and put his pillow over his burning face.
“Kill me,” He muffled. Remy sighed and sat on the edge of Janus’ bed.
“I am pretty sure you two can get through this,” Remy said hesitantly. Janus didn’t know how to respond. He felt like his brain short circuited with this topic of conversation. How can they ever talk about this when Janus felt like he was gonna combust on the mere topic of Remus desiring him? He didn’t know how to get out of this mortifying state and felt completely pathetic. Stupid mush.
Before they could continue, both of them jumped at a sound. A frazzled prefect came rushing in.
“That Gryffindor gremlin is causing a ruckus just outside the entrance to our dorming!”
One would think that description would be vague enough to not know who was being referenced, but the action itself was enough to clue that it was Remus. Remy gave him a curious look, before he went with the others out of the dorms. Janus joined them, coughing at whatever smoky substance was set off from the prank, and looking around for Remus as it was a bit hard to see. It didn’t take long. He felt a hand grab his wrist, pull him back, and then his body felt a strange warping sensation before suddenly he landed in a completely different place.
He stumbled, and held a hand to his mouth as he felt nausea. A pair of arms steadied him.
“Easy. Heh, sorry. I kinda forgot some people don’t respond well to apparating,” Remus said sheepishly.
Janus carefully turned to face him.
“I didn’t even know you were learning apparition.”
Remus simply shrugged in response and smiled.
“It sounded fun.”
“And, I thought you couldn’t apparate from within Hogwarts?”
“Ah, well, those who were taking the class got special permission so we could practice.”
Janus narrowed his eyes, unsure of that explanation, but left it be for now.
“What are you doing anyways?”
“Ah, I noticed you hadn’t left your dorm all day, and I thought you could use a study break.”
Janus smiled at him.
“That’s actually rather sweet of you.”
Remus looked away, “So you don’t mind?”
“Nah, I was feeling done for the day anyways. What did you have in mind?”
Remus’ typical unhinged smile made it back onto his face.
“Well~, I am always up for crime, causing mischief, or we could just hangout. At Hogsmeade, or hide out somewhere away from everyone, with food swiped from the kitchen, at our own personal picnic. Just the two of us.” Remus looked him in the eyes as he said that. Janus felt his breath catch, and quickly glance away.
“I am always a fan of crime and mischief, but I am good with the slightly troublesome picnic for now.”
Remus smiled brightly and started swinging their hands.
“Great! I already took us to the spot I mentioned. Lemme just swipe some food, be right back,” and he swished away.
Janus took a deep breath and sat down where he was, apparently already on a picnic blanket. The situation was starting to sink in.
Was this a date? It sure seemed like it.
He hadn’t been completely alone with Remus, away from everyone, like this before. He didn’t even know where they were. Was it just off from Hogsmeade? Somehow, the unknown was a bit thrilling as well.
He didn’t know what could happen, but thinking of being with Remus like this was already making him feel warm.
Janus didn’t want to be a sap, but he was already finding he could help it, and they hadn’t even done anything yet.
“There we go!”
Janus jolted again upon Remus’ sudden appearance. Remus gave him a confused smile before jumping into a seated position on the blanket.
“I don’t know what it is, but swiped food always tastes more thrilling,” He said with a smile. Janus smiled back. Remus immediately scooted closer.
“Yeah, I uh agree. Although I can’t say I have swiped much food.”
Remus tsked playfully.
“Well that’s disappointing. What kind of Slytherin isn’t a rule breaker?”
“Oh, I didn’t say I didn’t break rules,” Janus said with a smirk. “Plus I am almost certain we are likely breaking rules right now.”
Remus smirked back. “You know it. Isn’t it great?”
Janus laughed at that and shook his head. Then he noticed Remus scooted closer again. He inhaled at that, really hoping he wasn’t visibly blushing.
“Y-you know,” he cleared his throat. He knew they needed to just out with it. “I am curious why you decided to have my all to yourself, so far from everyone, and that we have a mere picnic. You tend to need a lot to do, with your energy. So, what exactly were you wanting to do?”
He glanced at Remus, and his breath caught again. Remus had an intense look in his eyes. He started to lean towards him.
“Perhaps, I had hoped this could be a date?” Remus said, surprisingly quietly. Janus couldn't help looking back at him, wondering how his own face looked.
“I’m sorry I didn’t ask ahead of time,”
“I-it’s ok,” Janus cut in, and then blushed. Remus paused and then smiled slowly.
“Yeah?”
Janus made a small noise and nodded. Remus leaned in closer.
“As for what we can do…let me know if you’re not ready for what I have in mind.”
Janus stuttered an exhale and nodded, “O-okay.”
Remus reached up, before touching Janus’ scales, and then looked at him.
“May I touch you here?”
Janus blinked at him.
“Yeah, but I don’t know why you would wan-“
He stopped as Remus lightly brushed his fingers against Janus’ scales. Remus fingers felt much warmer on his scaled skin. Janus felt himself involuntarily relax. It felt weird, but nice. Remus smiled at him, and then cupped Janus’ scaled cheek.
“It’s part of you, Jan. Just another beautiful feature of you.”
Janus shivered a little. “You’re gonna take this opportunity to shower me in compliments, aren’t you?”
There that endearingly crazed smile was back.
“Oh you know it.” He turned and pulled Janus forward with his own Slytherin tie until there was barely space between their faces.
“May I kiss you, Janus?”
Janus gulped, “Y-yeah,”
almost as soon as Janus had uttered the confirmation, Remus lips met his. It was a brushing of lips at first, yet each one became more.
Remus pressed forward, and starting to move his hands over Janus, cupping his face, twining his fingers in his hair, Janus sighed into the kiss, and did his best to kiss back. This was definitely his first, yet it felt so right for this to be with Remus. Their touches matching each other’s felt right. There was always Remus.
Remus had found a way of getting Janus into his lap, he felt so warm against him.
That eventually lead to him pushing Janus gently so he was laying back on the picnic blanket. Janus blushed as he was laid down. Yet it was thrilling to have Remus over him like that, and he felt him even more that way. Janus wasn’t really sure where he was headed next when they heard,
“Duke!”
Causing both of them to jump. Remus pulled his head up, while leaning over him more as though to cover up Janus.
“Yes, Professor?”
“I don’t know how you even got over here, but students are forbidden from going so far out from Hogsmeade. And who is that under you? Such levels of PDA go against school conduct as well.”
Janus groaned and put his hands over his face.
“We’re not at school though, “ Remus said. Janus could only imagine the glare Remus received from that comment.
“Look, I’m the one who brought him here, he didn’t know we would end up here. And I’m pretty sure he’s going to combust if you make me show him to you.”
“Remus,” Janus whined in a quiet high voice.
The professor huffed.
“You have ten minutes to compose yourselves and go to a proper approved location. Then I expect you both to head back to Hogwarts immediately, your recreation rights to Hogsmeade have been revoked for the day for breaking school conduct.”
“Got it, thanks professor.”
That was a swivel of a cloak as she marched off. Remus pried himself off of Janus.
“Sorry about that.” He held out a hand which Janus received in a huff. Then he helped Remus to quickly gather up the picnic and head back to where they were allowed to be.
“You didn’t have to cover for me you know.”
Remus shrugged. “Eh, it’s fine. I didn’t want to embarrass you.”
“I’m kind of surprised she let you.”
“Well, let’s just say I’m well acquainted with discipline at this school. She's probably happy I found someone.”
Janus huffed and leaned into him, as the group made it’s way back to Hogwarts, the two of them hanging back.
“Does this mean your new method of breaking the rules is going to be finding new places to sneak off to and make out?” Janus asked quietly.
Remus shot him a mischievous smile. “You know it.”
Janus rolled his eyes, but he was smiling. Honestly, it could be worse.

[superbat hs au - Court of Owls, First hints of ~superpowers~
Tommy was willing to fill the time a while until supper, when about ten minutes before six, the boy on the top bunk would finally sit himself up and slide down to the floor and tugging on shoes without much of a word. “Almost six. Get ready to go.”
--
“Uh-”
Clark had asked him if he had any family, and what he planned to go to college for, and other generic questions he could manage to think of while he unpacked his things and then shoved his empty luggage aside.
“Six?” He asked, like he hadn’t heard any of what Harvey said before.
--
“Dinner,” Bruce said as explanation, unbothered.
(“Unfortunately, my mom,” Tommy had said with a roll of his eyes. “And obviously, Bruce’s an orphan. I’m hoping for medical school, to be a surgeon. What about you?”
There was no moment to acknowledge the middle part of the sentence. Only an impossible-to-hear tightness in the boy in the bunk’s otherwise steady breathing. And then it was gone again.)
“They’ll want you to wear something nice for the opening dinner, and any dinner on Sundays. If you don’t have anything else, your school uniform will do,” Bruce said.
--
(“Wh- journalism.” Clark had replied, but didn’t dare ask about how Bruce was an orphan.)
“Oh, okay. Uh. Yeah. I’ll have to get changed then.” Clark said, and dug around for his uniform. He didn’t have anything nicer than that with him.
He walked out to head to the bathroom and change.
--
“Alright.”
They would wait for him to return.
When he did, it was clear Tommy had changed clothing too, though he hadn’t bothered to leave the room to do so. He sat with Bruce on their bottom bunk, dressed in a matching oxford and button down jacket. Dark pants, black shoes. They could’ve been siblings, probably, despite their personalities.
And once all three were there, off they went, Bruce dutifully leading the way to the cafeteria, and Tommy trailing a bit behind him, content to just follow along for the moment.
“Sundays and special dinners we gotta eat with our hall table,” Tommy said. “And listen to the headmaster give speeches. But other than that, school’s pretty great.”
--
Clark followed along behind them. The closer they got the louder things got, and he could tell this was going to be rough. Places that were loud even for regular people were killer on him. It was so hard to focus on what you were supposed to.
“You like school?” He asked, sounding a little in disbelief.
--
“Uh, yeah?” he said. “Get some time away from the family? Live with my best friend? School rocks.”
He slung an arm around Bruce, and it was accepted with a huff.
“Not everyone’s as good at school work as you,” Bruce said.
“You are, though,” Tommy said. “So you don’t get to point that out to me.”
He poked Bruce’s cheek. The quiet boy smiled a little.
--
Clark didn’t say much. He felt like a third wheel, and the black-haired kid really wasn’t much of a talker. Couldn’t blame him if he really was an orphan.
The dinner was… boring. But hey, free food. The headmaster talked about the upcoming year and how they were all going to grow into strapping young, disciplined men and yadda yadda. Clark didn’t really pay attention.
When dinner was over it was back to the room. Back to bed.
… He had a hard time sleeping. Gotham at night was still so damn loud compared to back home.
--
Gotham was loud.
So were the dorms.
(someone, somewhere in the building, was crying into their pillow. Trying to muffle it, but the dissonance--
Multiple people were. Quiet, muffled, hiding it--)
In His Room.
In his room, the first night, a heart started to rocket up in pace from where it had once been steady, panic--
Bruce on the top bunk jerked awake, with the sound of his teeth biting through his lip to keep quiet.
--
Sometimes Clark didn’t realize what was supposed to be loud to normal people and what wasn’t.
“... You okay?” He whispered out into the dark.
--
The boy flinched.
….rolled over to face Clark, breathing still shallow.
He flinched again at whatever he saw.
“...fine,” he said. Then, “Quiet.”
--
His eyes were still bright in the dark, but only when they caught the light.
“... Okay.” He said, and wouldn’t say anything else.
He wouldn’t get much sleep.
--
It was something Clark couldn’t hear, but Bruce’s mind wouldn’t quiet anymore than Gotham or the dormitory would.
“...what’s with your eyes?” he whispered.
--
Oh damn. Oh shit.
He quickly closed them and rolled over so he faced away from the other bunk.
“Nothing.”
--
There was a disbelieving huff from the other side of the room.
...unfortunately, Clark wasn’t the only light sleeper.
��...mmh?” Tommy mumbled, splayed out on the bottom bunk. “What’s goin ‘rong?”
--
“Nothin’.” Clark said again, and didn’t turn around.
They had sent him here to get away from everyone knowing what he could do. He couldn’t blow his cover on the first night because his STUPID EYES GLOWED IN THE DARK.
--
“His eyes were glowing,” Bruce said. Because of course he did. No wonder Tommy called him a snitch--
But Tommy started making noise into his pillow, too.
Laughing. Trying to muffle it.
“Were you dreaming about the Talon?” he hissed, sounding delighted.
--
Ignore it. Let this blow over.
“What’s that?” He mumbled, still looking away.
--
Above Clark, Harvey Dent let out a groan under his breath.
Apparently, everyone was awake tonight.
If Tommy’s eyes could’ve glinted in the dark, they would’ve. “Oh, that’s right…. You’re from Kansas. You don’t know about… the assassins….”
“Oh my god,” Harvey Dent whispered only to himself.
--
… Clark finally lifted his head and glanced back at the other bunk.
“What.”
--
“It’s a fairy tale in the area,” Harvey said finally, whispering loud enough for the other two in the room to know he was also a little snitch. “Tommy likes to scare new kids with it. Now shut up, we’re gonna get in trouble.”
Tommy flopped back onto his bed, huffing. “It’s fun to watch them freak out. It’s not like anything bad actually happens by just talking about it.”
“You got a quote for that?” Bruce mumbled, half audible in his pillow.
“Ugh. ‘Happiness depends on ourselves?’ Or in this case, in letting me tell a ghost story in the middle of the night, you babies.”
--
“Fairytale assassins?” Clark couldn’t help but snort and roll back over so no one could see his eyes.
“Guess you city kids gotta have some kinda boogiemen.”
--
…..
Tommy sat up in bed, eyes narrowing.
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
--
“Well back home we got things like portals to hell and angry ghosts, not assassins.”
--
...somehow, that seemed to settle Tommy, a little.
“No room for that stuff here,” he said. “Just threatening nursery rhymes that date back definitely two hundred years and if you want it creepier, even longer.”
--
“... Assassins with nursery rhymes?”
Sounds pretty lame.
--
“Still spooks people enough,” Tommy said, shrugging. “Especially in this kinda place.”
“It’s nice to think some random murders might’ve had a point,” Bruce said.
Tommy did not respond to that.
--
“Dunno how anyone could get spooked in a place as loud as this.” Clark said, sighing.
No room to think enough to be scared.
--
….for a moment, the three regarded him in incomprehension.
“Oh,” Harvey said. “Oh, he’s not used to the city.”
There was a small sound of understanding from the other two.
“I was gonna say. It’s dead quiet, honestly,” said Tommy.
“Not if we get caught talking,” Bruce warned. “Shh.”
“Shhhhhh,” Tommy said.
--
Clark groaned his own ‘nnnngh’ and shoved the pillow over his head.
It didn’t help.
Somewhere out of normal hearing a car alarm went off.
“You gotta be kidding…” He whispered to himself.
--
At least, finally, the conversation, thin as it was, had died out.
(There wasn’t any explanation for why Tommy would think Bruce dreamed of Talons when it was just a silly boogey man.)
But the three boys settled down in their beds again.
Bruce started breathing deeper. More intentionally. Until it relaxed him enough to get back to sleep.
...his heartbeat deepened and steadied out. Much closer than the car alarm.
Tommy and Harvey’s followed.
[...]
He wrote to his parents.
Everything is going well. Making friends. They're all rich but not as full of themselves as I thought they would be. It's pretty cool. Really loud here though. Having a lot of trouble sleeping.
Love you.
Then it was just… back to normal. Like he hadn't found out the teachers beat their students.
--
(When his mother wrote back, she was so relieved he was making friends. That it wasn't as bad as she feared.
But he wouldn't get that letter for another two weeks.)
The next week rolled around, and Bruce grew a little quieter. Tommy didn't, but Harvey quietly told Clark to be extra careful this week. It was an anniversary, he said, assuming that by now Clark knew, Kansas or not. And sometimes Bruce got a little mean during the anniversary.
Not just standoffish, but.
A little aggressive? Sometimes.
...and so the 26th rolled over, and even though Tommy seemed to be pretending it was a normal day, the rest of their dorm room woke up with stale, held breath.
Bruce avoided people. Avoided radios and TVs playing the news.
But somehow, he didn't manage to avoid the newspaper, and did a double take when he saw the headlines.
Finally, something had overshadowed him a little.
On the front page was the picture of a grisly murder. Open-eyes, holes in his face--
“REAL ESTATE SUPERSTAR FOUND DEAD IN PENTHOUSE SUITE; DEATH OF A THOUSAND CUTS!”
--
Clark tried to keep it in mind. Unlike the other two he didn’t treat it like any other day because it wasn’t. They still all went through the motions of course, but he talked to Bruce a little softer. A little gentler. Not because he wanted to walk on eggshells, but because he knew for Bruce that this wasn’t just another normal day, and acting like it was felt like almost a slap in the face of what he had to go through.
Maybe it hadn’t occurred to him that Bruce would want to avoid the papers. It was hard for him to wrap around the fact one of his roommates was so rich that his parent’s death made it into the news every single year somehow, so maybe it was his fault that Bruce saw the headline. He read the paper almost every day if he could. He wanted to be a journalist, after all, and they didn’t have TV in their room. Sometimes the common room TV wasn’t even on.
But he saw the murder too and, at this point, didn’t think much of it. Read the article and moved on.
Gotham, he had learned very quickly, was just as bad as everyone said.
--
It made sense, why Gotham Academy reassured all their parents that they would keep the children safe.
And maybe that was Bruce’s fault, he thought. Because it wasn't as if he was expecting papers to talk all over again like the day it'd been, but--
He'd expected a talk piece. An opinion article.

He could imagine what the headline should've been. What it should've been.
Instead, Six Years of Sorrow: Wayne Murders Still Shadow Upper East Side and Wayne Murder Theater Announces Close on Anniversary of Deaths, citing ‘Unrecoverable Reputation’ of the Area had been pushed down the page to make room for the new murder.
...and Bruce took a look at it and snatched it up to stare at the grisly photo and start to read.
--
It was a good thing that Clark had a loose grip on it as it was yanked from his hands.
“O-kay. You coulda asked.” He said, but didn’t sound angry. Still being soft around Bruce due to the day it was.
He feared he might’ve done something wrong.
--
Bruce managed to give him a hum of some sort of acknowledgment, but didn't really give much of a response.
He went to his bag, grabbed a pen, and sat right down on the floor, tracing the bottom of the words in the paper to keep his place.
Tommy leaned out from his bunk to try and watch over Bruce's shoulder, but his eyes looked uninterested. “Saw somethin’ ya liked?”
(Bruce shot him a disgusted look, a “what?” but otherwise ignored him.)
--
Clark leaned over too in order to watch him. “Or somethin’ ya didn’t like.”
--
Bruce glanced up at him, too, but looked more self-conscious than anything at that.
“The way they're talking about the thing just reminds me of the claw marks they found at the Lansing murders…”
“Oh my god,” Tommy said in a familiar kind of disbelief for this specific topic. “It was a dog claw, Bruce.”
--
Clark, however, was interested.
“Lansing murders?”
--
Bruce shrank down under Tommy’s criticism, but… looked up again, and quietly answered Clark’s tone.
“...the Lansings were a business couple,” he said. “They were murdered in their home the summer before last by stabbing a, so not… like this.”
For a moment, he backed up again, and let Clark see the slashes of the man on the page.
“Something left a big claw mark on the door, and their dog--”
“Ran away from home and wasn't seen again,” Tommy said dully. “It obviously hit the front door. Broke the hinges. Ran off in fear. It was a hundred pound dog.”
“...” the look on Bruce’s face said he didn't believe it all the way.
But he didn't lift his head to argue this time. He just stared down at the paper.
“...Bruce, hey, I'm not trying to make fun of you, I'd never do that,” Tommy said, rolling a little closer to the edge of the bed. “But just because claw marks happened once or twice at a murder doesn't mean the Court is real. What, did your dad have a gash on his face when he died?”
And Bruce shook his head.
“See? It's not real.”
--
“Well that don't mean you can't look into it.” Clark offered, looking up at them. “What's the harm in connecting a few dots? And just because there ain't proof they do exist doesn't mean they don't.”
--
Tommy gave Clark the kind of flat look he never gave Bruce. Like he was saying the dumbest thing.
“You didn't even know the story when you showed up and now you're trying to do this? Really?”
...Bruce stared up at Clark, face unreadable.
And he started to pick up the newspaper and fold it again.
--
“Tryin’ to do what?” Clark frowned. “If there's a story here I'm interested! Y'know--” he gestured to himself, “journalism?”
--
“To drag him down again!” Tommy said, rolling off then bed and standing, defensive behind Bruce. Above him.
For the moment.
For the moment before Bruce stood, pencils and notebook in hand, and paper carefully folded under his arm.
He looked at Clark.
“Let's go.”
--
Clark glared at Tommy, but he said nothing.
He grabbed his own notebook and pencils to leave with Bruce.
--
“Bruce?” Tommy said, but Harvey was the only one still listening. “Bruce!”
Bruce closed the dorm door behind him.
“Library has old papers on record,” Bruce said softly. And he began to walk.
--
Whatever history was repeating here, Clark knew nothing of it.
“Okay,” he said, and started heading that way.
“... Tommy said I was ‘dragging you down again’. What’d he mean by that?”
He sounded annoyed. Offended. Like he would do that to someone intentionally.
--
Bruce pursed his lips, buying time for a response, but not sure what to say. Or, he knew what to say.
But he didn't like to say it.
“...I tried to find the man who killed my parents,” he said finally. “...I couldn't.”
--
“You think they’re all related to that Court?”
--
Bruce hung his head.
Stared at the ground.
Didn't… want to look Clark in the eye when he admitted his stupid, idiot theory.
“...they’re all building developers. Or owned lots of property. And were trying to change it…”
--
But Clark didn’t call it stupid.
“Okay, something to start with. And, hey--”
He reached out slowly to touch Bruce’s shoulder.
“Worst case scenario is we’re wrong and nothing changes.”
--
Bruce twitched a little at the contact, but…
Mostly, he just turned his head up a little, and stared at Clark’s face.
(He was sixteen and he'd stopped believing in a just world long ago.
But somehow, he was stupid, and still believed in fairy tales.)
“Okay,” he said, voice cracking.
And he led Clark to the library.
...the newspapers were all in the bottom floor, the basement. In the archives. The indexes were massive, but well organized and maintained.
And Bruce already knew where to start looking… to a point.
But the first place to start, was writing down a scrawled poem on a blank sheet of scrap paper. Hesitating.
“...we’re doing this backwards,” he mumbled. “Not supposed to go in with a theory…”
But he wrote it out, all the same.
Beware The Court of Owls, that watches all the time,
ruling Gotham from a shadow perch, behind granite and lime.
They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed,
speak not a whispered word of them or they'll send The Talon for your head.
--
Clark followed him down.
“No?” He asked, setting his notebook on a desk close to the archives they would need to look through.
“How do you think we should go about it then?”
--
Bruce swallowed and stuffed the paper in his pocket.
“...supposed to go in and look for patterns and connections,” he said. “...if you already have a suspect, you… only look for things that point to them.”
--
“... Okay. How much can you tell me about this ‘Court of Owls’?”
He was sitting down and opening his notebook to a new page. He didn’t have the knowledge of them Bruce did. This wasn’t his home. These weren’t his urban legends.
--
Looking for them directly was exactly what Bruce said they shouldn't be doing, but…
It still thrummed inside him, on some silly, stupid level.
Maybe it hadn't just been a coincidence murder. Maybe it had a purpose. Anything other than random events. Anything.
“...” he handed Clark the paper. “...they have at least one assassin. They… Have an architecture motif. They're watching from the buildings.”
With the kind of architecture in Gotham Academy not being uncommon to the rest of Old Gotham, it maybe wasn't surprising the buildings themselves were the boogeymen’s hiding places sometimes.
But he didn't know if Clark would make that connection to a real estate building mongle--
--
“Ties in to your theory about them targeting building developers.” He said, writing something down before he got up so he could look into those Lansing murders Bruce had talked about earlier.
He needed to play catch-up. This wasn’t his turf. He didn’t know as much as Bruce did.
He planned to dig up the papers about the Wayne tragedy too, but… not now. Not with Bruce in the room.
Clark could do that later on his own time.
--
Tommy had seen the connection, and rolled his eyes, and Bruce half expected Clark to just-- not see it at all--
But he swallowed something down, and his stomach stopped roiling quite so much, and he nodded again.
“Yeah. Just. Anyone who changes the architecture.”
And he dove in behind Clark.
He looked for the more recent murders. The ones he hasn't read about or studied like this since he was twelve and finally gave up, run off from his last scraps of energy.
And finally, someone was beside him, willing, even for just a moment, to believe him.
--
While Bruce looked at the more recent murders, Clark went for the old. The ones Bruce already knew about. He asked him which ones he had connected before, if any, and he would take a look at those.
(“I’m a new perspective. I wanna go over things you already know about. We don’t think the same, so who knows. Maybe I’ll see something different.” Is what he would say.)
The Lansing murders. What they did before the murders. The other ones that Bruce had tied together when he was 12--
Before they knew it the library was closing. They would need to come back.
And they would.
--
(A new perspective. A new reading level, honestly-- from twelve to sixteen, the change in things he understood--)
They would come back.
Absolutely.
Bruce went to bed and slept the whole night, and woke with impatient fire in his eyes.
Tommy gave Clark a sour look as Clark headed out the door to change, and once again as Bruce flew out of his last class, tossing his bag into their dorm and making a beeline to the library.
“Bruce, but, homework--!” Tommy called.
“Don't bother,” Harvey sighed, sitting down with his own book bag to get started “It’s not like his grades will get him kicked out.”
….and on the weekend, Tommy barely had time to pull on a matching hoodie and jeans, before Bruce was out the door for early breakfast and back to work.
(“Nice to see him care about something,” Harvey said.
Tommy threw a pillow at his head.)

Hello!! Happy FFWF!! Is there anything in particular that you find hard to write? Are there any WIPs that you've just absolutely given up on cause you think it'll go nowhere?? (would you share a bit of it? :D)
Croisty! Happy ffw tuesday (which tbh is earlier than I thought I'd be able to do these, so be proud of me lol)
I wish I had more to go off of in my writing portfolio to answer this question, but I think the thing I have the hardest time writing/ have avoided writing in my wips is just unfettered angst or like horror/ violence. Like character death? Gore? Fight scenes? (ooooh baby I SUCK at fight scenes) all of /that/ is just not really my forte as a writer. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to hurting my characters, but hurt/comfort is more where its at for me. You've read my stuff, so you know how emotionally driven a lot of my writing is. I think I would have a hard time writing more graphic/ heartbreaking/ violent *stuff* in my style. Idk, it would probably be a good thing for me to practice.... but.... I don't wanna (hands on hips) sooooo I'm not planning to really do anything quite like that anytime soon.
As far as abandoned wips go, I've got plentyyyy (or just verrrrrrry dusty wips that are not quite abandoned but are sitting very patiently on the shelf waiting for me to have the time to get back to them) Violent/ angsty/ deathy/ fighty abandoned wips though? Not so much.
But for you, mon petit croissant, have a bit of a miraculous ladybug reveal fic that I wrote one night after having a little ~ouid~ and convincing my husband to put on a sheet face mask with me that I now have no intention of finishing (oops, rip me).
okaaaaayyy so this is actually pretty dang long lol but I'm going to share the whole thing with you because I just re-read it for the first time in months and its pretty funny ~if you ask me~ so anyway... under the cut <3
NIGHT OFF
Okay, so maybe it wasn’t a totally crazy idea to take a night off.
Besides, Shadowmoth’s akumatizations had slowed down considerably in the past few months, and he rarely ever sent out two akumas in one day. The battle that she and Chat had fought that morning was brutal, but they’d come out victorious against HoneyBadger. Still, the fight had left her exhausted and wound up. Shadowmoth was planning something, she was sure of it. She just couldn’t, for the life of her, figure out what it was.
Ladybug was stressed.
Add to that, the fact that end-of-term exams were starting up next week and she’d not had nearly enough time during dead week to actually cram. Something about black butterflies and cranky kwamis and a cheeky cat (who, in recent weeks, had been considerably less cheeky.) Not to mention, she had been receiving an awful lot of memes, seemingly without preamble, from Paris’ favorite male model. Nino thought it was hilarious. Alya thought it was suspicious. Marinette thought it was confusing.
Marinette was stressed.
All of it was stressful.
*
Alya knew when her best friend was stressed. She could usually gauge the amount of Marinette’s exasperation by the frequency with which her bangs went flying from her face, propelled by a huff and a heavy sigh. Right now, Marinette’s bangs were a mess.
“Okay, girl. You need a night off.”
“What? No, I’m fine! Really! Plus, I can’t really afford to take a night off right now, Alya… I don’t know what Shadowmoth ha—”
“Yeah, no. I’m stopping you right there. For the next twenty-four hours, this space is a Ladybug-talk free zone,” she gestured vaguely around her bedroom, which was scattered with printouts and pictures that Marinette had brought over to work on nailing down Hawkmoth’s possible location using Alya’s beloved akuma-map. “I know, I know. It pains me more than it pains you, truly. But I’m doing this for you. Tonight: you, me, drinks, distractions. You are taking a night off.”
“But Alya! What if—”
“Hush, you know that’s incredibly unlikely. And, in the event of this IF you are so set on, you know that cat boy and I will have your back. Even drunk ladybugs can purify akumas when they have the clawed crusaders on their side.”
“I can’t believe you gave in to his silly nickname.”
“It is a badass nickname and you are just jealous that we bonded.”
“I’m not jealous. I’m annoyed.”
“Mhmm… keep telling yourself that, girl. Now, back to the matter at hand: what kind of drunk do you want to get tonight? Classy or trashy? I still have that peach stuff from last month, but if we are thinking classy I might need to call in the reserves to get us some decent wine.”
“You won’t need to call in anybody, Al, because I am definitely not getting drunk tonight.”
“Night off, Marinette. Drunkenness is a prerequisite.”
“Can’t we just watch movies or something? I really don’t know if that’s too good of an idea…”
“Girl, we watch movies every night. This is a night off. Don’t think I don’t see you stressing all throughout movie night every week, anyway. You need to take your mind off Ladybug,” she gestured at the mess that had consumed her bedroom. “And get your mind back on Marinette. Superhero or no, you’re still a teenage girl who is supposed to be enjoying the last few months of college.”
Marinette pouted.
“Stop pouting. You know you deserve to have normal girl fun.”
“But Alya I—”
“No buts.” An unnervingly devious look crossed Alya’s face. “Unless it is your butt in that pair of skinny jeans that you and I both know you-know-who loves. Boys will be here in twenty. Get to it, girl.”
Marinette just gaped at her. She didn’t even notice that Alya had grabbed her phone, but alas, there was the tell-tale ping.
Alya Cesaire → Akuma class OGs chat
Alya: anyone down for a little last minute get together—my door is open and my bar is stocked
Nino: HELL YEAH babe!
NL: got a new mix i’ve been meaning to show you… so entertainments on me fam!

Alya: gladly <3
“Alya, stop bullying Adrien.”
“No way, girl. Giving that boy a task is the only way to ensure he shows up. Speaking of which… butt, jeans, go, now!”
The doorbell rang. Nino had perfected the quickest route to Alya’s house from every part of Paris years ago. Yes, he was whipped; and yes, he was proud of it.
“ALYA! I have to clean all of this up and I have to go home to get those jeans that you’re so dead set on and…”
“No you don’t. Kaalki?”
“Right here, Ms. Rouge.”
“YOU USED VOYAGE TO BRING ME JEANS?”
“No way girl! Don’t be silly. Kaalki and Roaar just volunteered to be my errand kwamis.”
“You guys do realize that I am the guardian, right?”
“Of course, that’s why we worked so hard to get everything that you need for tonight.”
“I—you… wait is this my good bra? How did you—”
“Us kwamis pay attention, Marinette.” Tikki cuddled up to her cheek.
“Et tu, Tikki?”
The ladybug kwami just giggled and made her way to the pile of papers scattered across Alya’s bed, starting to organize them back into neat stacks.
“Night. Off.” Alya punctuated each word with a shove and a smack on the bum, directing Marinette toward the bathroom and shutting her in to get ready while she got the door for Nino.
