Seduce me nation I have something new for us to think about
Okay so, yk that whole ‘I’m not a violent dog, I don’t know why I bite’ audio clip that’s been doing the rounds on tiktok recently, now we can very obviously relate this to Sam and his aggressive attitude n stuff, BUTT consider this; it’s better (well maybe not better but equally valid) for it to be associated with Matthew HEAR MEOWT, now I havnt played the game in a while so I may be getting a few things wrong but, the scene where (in matthews route ) when like everyone’s eating breakfast together and talking about when they got into fights and whatnot n sam brings up when Matthew totally murderised a bunch of imps who was making fun of his mother. Now, I may or may not be projecting a little or reaching but these are my headcanons okay🫵🏻 but I think it’s very possible that Matthew could have suppressed anger issues like given all his insecurities with others always helping him and people not seeing him as a man and people just generally babying him it must’ve been really frustrating and it’s not hard to believe that he’d snap every now and then, and like..ugh I could sit and talk about it for days but the long and short I’m trying to convey here is that he has anger issues, he’s normally happy go lucky and suddenly he just gets SO wound up he snaps, and it’s violent, and when he calms down and the adrenaline leaves he’s worried, he’s panicked and concerned that HE just did something so out of character for himself, he’s worried he’s becoming like his father. he’s not a violent person, he doesn’t know why he lashes out like that.
Please I pray the rest of you can see my vision PLEASEEEEE AGREE WITH MEEEE /lh
Anyways I’m so excited for the book all hail lady Diana!!

hello, may I ask how would the brothers react to Mika/MC randomly running up and hugging them for whatever reason?
You absolutely can ask! That is such a cute idea too, love it.
Tumblr media
~He doesn't mind at all! ~Random hugs catch him off guard at first, mostly because demons aren't anywhere near as openly affectionate, but over time he gets used to it ~ He gets so used to them so he doesn't always even look up from what he's doing, instead laughing quietly and either leaning into the hug if he can't properly hug Mika back
Tumblr media
~ Erik also doesn't mind random hugs at all, in fact he adores them ~It let's him know that Mika genuinely want his affection and that she will seek him out ~Though like with James and all his other brothers it does catch him a little off guard at first, Erik is the second fastest to adjust barely beat out by Matthew ~And sometimes he'll surprise Mika with surprise hugs of his own! ~In general this man will never say no to a hug
Tumblr media
~Surprise hugs really catch him off guard at first. Especially if he can't see Mika coming ~After the things he's been through its understandable ~But once he's used to them, Sam loves them and always gives Mika the biggest hug back ~Sam is not likely to give surprise hugs of his own, but he will turn a surprise hug into a moment to just hold Mika, ya know since she's already in his arms. ~So cuddles abound ~In Mika's opinion, Sam gives the best hugs
Tumblr media
~He is the fastest to adjust to surprise hugs ~Adores the randomness of the hugs and will hug Mika for any random reason right after she hugs him randomly for the first time. ~Sometimes the random hug turns into a tickle fight, sometimes it's just a sweet moment. Depends on the mood of the day ~A random hug from Mika always has a forehead kiss though.
Tumblr media
~Surprise hugs make Damien so happy ~Like actually he needs all the hugs in the world and the fact that Mika will just randomly hug him to show that she cares about him ~He may or may not have cried the first time ~Will never say to a random hug ~He holds Mika so close and so tightly every time she hugs him

Matthew Anderson x Reader *Respecting Boundaries Comfort*
Warnings: Mentions of Sexual Assault (coercion), sexual assault from a past significant other (unspecified gender), mentions of PTSD, cursing, and of sexual themes. Not beta read.
Summary: You and Matthew have been dating for awhile. However, you're finding a hard time telling him about your past experience with being sexually assaulted. When Matthew starts noticing that you're starting to distance yourself from him before things start to heat up, he asks if you're okay and comfortable with him. When you tell him the truth, he comforts you and tells you that he will always love you regardless if you want to have sex or not.
Word Count: 1,988
A/N: Reader isn't exactly Mika, and I spaced out the time from the first game between Malix and Diana it took a little over a month, because having the events happening within a week is wild to me. Also I kinda changed the way they need sexual energy to make it easier for the plot.
This is also kind of asexual coded if you squint. It's never explicitly said in the story, however, I am asexual, so I kinda wrote it in a way of what I'd like to hear? So it could be taken both ways. This is based off of a very real experience so be a bit gentle if for some reason you wanna judge this story.
It had already been about six months since you confessed your love for Matthew, and he confessed his love for you in turn. Between the month and a half of chaos with Malix and Diana, you were lucky to get to know the brothers while they were training. While the boys were still trying to adjust to the human world, they stayed with you, which helped you adjust to living in a mansion and finish up your schooling. They really had become like your own found family, and you gave them a sense of that too. Over time as you opened up to them, they opened up to you, about what their lives were like in the Abyssal Plains, how different things were, and what they hoped out of their new lives here in the human world. Matthew of course, opened up to you the most, the two of you knowing each other like the back of your hand. But there were still some things about your life that you found hard to open up to him about. When it came to the topic of past relationships, if there were any, you tried to keep things vague, only really saying that things ended badly. Matthew respected that, and never tried to pry any further if you weren't comfortable talking about it. For the first month or so into your relationship, you could almost forget about the fact that Matthew was an Incubus, other than creating little toys and trinkets for you from time to time. When the two of you kissed, it kept him satiated long enough until the two of you would kiss again, so the idea of him needing to feed on energy started to slowly escape your mind. But as time started passing, it became more prevalent that things started to get a bit more heated each time. He would never pressure you into anything you didn't want to do, and if you told him to stop, he was quick to do just that. But it was undeniable at this point that he had been thinking about wanting to take things further with you. You had meant to tell him at some point about your past history, but every time you wanted to bring it up, your words would get caught in your throat, and your whole body reacted as if it was just wanted to dispose of the idea all together and change the subject to something else. The more time went on, the more you kept wanting to bring it up, but just continued to struggle. It started triggering some of the memories you just couldn't seem to forget, and it was starting to affect how you acted affectionately around him. After a particular make out session, his hand had started to travel down your thigh, and while you were sure it was meant to be innocent, you suddenly gasped and grabbed his hand to stop him. He stopped immediately and apologized, not meaning to make you uncomfortable or take things too far. Matthew had started noticing the small changed before, but at this point it was obvious, and he knew that it needed to be talked about. He didn't want to keep doing things that made you uncomfortable without exactly know what it was that was making you uncomfortable. The two of you had been cuddling and watching a movie together when an unexpected sex scene had come on. While it was typically depended on the movie, and how the sex scene was being played out, this time it made you a bit uncomfortable to sit though. Matthew had noticed how fidgety you had gotten in a second, grabbing the remote and fast forwarding through the scene wordlessly as you thanked him, before he kept the movie paused for a moment.
"Hey… Are we okay?" Matthew asked, finding himself fidgety as well. He had never been in love before, it was hardly ever talked about or seen as plausible for Incubi and Succubi to even be capable of love. However, you changed that for him, and he didn't want that to end.
"Yeah, we're okay." You said at first, and you could tell your anxiety started to pick up a bit. "I've just… been meaning to tell you something, but… don't really know how to say it…" You told him honestly, trying to take deep breaths to calm yourself.
"Are you uncomfortable with how affectionate I am?" He asked, as it was the question that's been on his mind for some time now.
"No! That's… It's…" You didn't know how to exactly put it, in a way you were, but at the same time you weren't. You liked how affectionate he was, you were just scared about how things would go if you two took it a step further. You didn't know how you would react, and quite frankly, you weren't entirely sure if you were even ready.
You took a deep breath, sitting up straighter on the couch, as you attempted to look him in the eyes, but found it hard to. Instead you opted to look at your hands that were intertwined with his.
"Things have been really good lately, and… I can tell that things are starting to get more, heated between us…" "Do you remember when you asked me about any past relationships I was in?" You then asked, him, as he nodded.
"Yeah, you told me it ended pretty badly…" He trailed off, piecing together that this must be what has been bugging you lately.
"Well…" You found your voice caught in your throat.
You had talked about this with some friends and a therapist once. The first time you spoke about it, you hadn't even realized you were sexually assaulted. Not until someone mentioned that you were coerced. When they explained it to you, it made you feel both a bit relieved, and panicked at the same time. On one hand, you were glad that you weren't crazy for feeling awful about saying yes to something you didn't mean, for so long you thought that it was your fault, and then finally… Someone explained to you that it wasn't. Then, on the other hand, you almost didn't feel as if you had the right to say you were sexually assaulted, even though that's what it was. It was hard to even say the words at first, because that meant it became more real.
"They… They sexually assaulted me." You finally spat out, feeling a bit nauseous all of a sudden.
Your mind wanted to try and distract you from it, to zone out and think of something else, but you knew that you had to at least explain why you had become distant.
"I wasn't ready… I tried to stop things before things got farther, but… They told me that I was being a shitty partner if…" You couldn't even say the words, hoping it was enough of a cue to fill in the blanks, "Sometimes they would stop, but become frustrated with me and become passive aggressive with me, other times they would just keep going anyway… Sometimes I would laugh because I became so uncomfortable, that they thought that when I said no… I didn't mean it, because I was laughing…"
Matthew held onto your hand a little tighter, you couldn't tell what he was thinking, and you couldn't look him in the eye just yet to clue you in on it.
"I know you've stopped every time I've asked, and you've never seen upset about it at all, and… You really haven't made me uncomfortable… It's just that every time things between us get a bit heated, my mind brings up these thoughts about sex, and… I get scared… Scared that I'll freak out and have to stop you midway and disappoint you, or that my mind won't be able to get into it and I'll just hate it the entire time…" At this point, you felt like you were rambling, but it was the only way your body was going to let you get this information out to him.
"I don't want that for you, or for us… You've been… so healing to be with… And I know respecting my boundaries and my no should be just the bare minimum in a relationship, but to me… it's everything. You have been such a breath of relief in my life, and every day I realize more and more that it's so easy to love you… I know with you being an incubus, you could so easily use your powers on me, to manipulate me, but you don't, you've never used your powers on me without my consent… and for that, I trust and love you wholeheartedly. I just…" You finally manage to look up at Matthew.
His eyes are puffy, and he's clearly been crying alongside you. You can tell that some part of him is angry, but that he's trying to keep it together. It made you pause your ramblings for a second, your gaze turning into one of concern quickly, as you reach out to gently cup his cheek. His hand reaches up to place over yours, as he leaned more into your touch. Finally, whatever you thought you were going to say next, never came.
"I'm sorry." Was all that you could say, you didn't exactly know what you were apologizing for, for making him cry you supposed.
He shook his head, "You don't have to apologize."
"(Y/N), thank you for telling me… It kills me to know that you've been hurt in such a way, and it makes me so fucking angry. I never want to hurt you, and if I ever did-" Matthew let out a shaky breath, "No, no you haven't." You interrupted him, not wanting him to think that.
"You mean so much to me, you've changed my life. I can't thank you enough for everything that you do, and I'm so grateful for every day I get to be with you. You're right, I could use my powers, and it would be normal for Incubi to do just that…" "But I swear, I never want to imagine any time where I would do that to you. Demons in the Abyssal Plains will tell me that I'm not capable of love, just as Diana said months ago… But I will always love you, regardless. If you some day decide you want to have sex, I will love you then. And if you decide you never want to have sex, I will still love you." Matthew spoke from his heart, pressing a kiss to the palm of your hand that was still cupping his cheek.
You leaned forward, pressing a slow and teary eyed kiss to his lips. He reciprocated immediately, wanting to pull you into a hug, but unsure if that's something you'd want. You decided to initiate, wrapping your arms around him and pulling him in close, as he did the exact same to you. Just hearing those words from him made you feel better about yourself and your relationship. There have been people who disagreed with you, telling you you that it was your fault, or that sex was synonymous with love. Luckily, you found someone who agreed with you, and that was a lovely feeling. You held each other for a long moment, until the two of you were able to calm down. The two of you spoke about possible triggers, and if some adaptations needed to be made in the way you two showed affection for each other. After the most important things were discussed, the two of you decided to continue the movie that you had paused. Through it all, Matthew had continued to remind you of all the reasons why you fell in love with him in the first place, and only gave you more reasons to love him.

Has anyone seen a smto post? It was headcannons with the boys about reader having some kind of kink where they wanted to be hunted/chased and the boys gave reader a head start and reader of course got caught in the end and it wasn’t explicitly explained but it was implied nsfw. I remember Erik’s part where he used his tentacles to wrap around readers legs to slow them down and eventually stop them and I remember Matthew was in a tree. I can’t remember what platform it was on but I’m pretty sure it was here on tumblr. Does anyone remember it? Has it been deleted or archived anywhere? I’d like to read it again. Any help is appreciated!
Edit: here’s the link! https://www.tumblr.com/imagine-otome-games/169630640254/could-i-get-a-continuation-of-the-one-where-mc

Good Evening Seduce Me Fandom.
I was extremely inspired to redesign the Lilith designs in the game, after seeing @moonymoss​ ‘s take on them!
Quality separate images, under cut! (And Diana with wings👀)
The boy’s outfits are based on them before they came to the human world (and it’s relevant cause of all of them wearing royal capes, and James being tired out of his mind) Diana is from during the war. MEANING, I might do another post with how the boys would look currently! (And maybe a potential Diana human form redesign, who knows.)
BUT YES, THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO ME BLABBER, ENJOY!

Can i request smut with Matthew where him and his s/o have been dating for a while and they end up having sex for the first time together. Maybe his s/o is a bit nervous cause it's their first time?
Hey there, since Matthew and his s/o are in a relationship, I assume this situation takes place when the brothers have already learned more about love and relationships.
Warning: nsfw - Minors DNI
-I don't own the game or the characters-
Matthew in a relationship was all fun and game. He was aware of his own charm, the light he could bring to the eyes of the girls swooning over him. But he'd learned over time that focusing on just one person was worth it. Sharing his attention and playfulness with a single person still felt a bit strange to him at times, but he enjoyed it.
The kitchen was a total disaster. Flour splattered the countertop like white dust, and the sink was full of bowls and other utensils. Sliced strawberries lay abandoned on a board, a strawberry perched on a bowl of freshly whipped cream. Her destiny was forgotten, while soft laughter from the adjoining bedroom filled the stillness.
Matthew had invited them to try this recipe with him. They liked to spend time together in the kitchen. He appreciated their love of baking and the kitchen was never without laughter and warm words when they were together. They had been a couple for a while now, there had been a few hot kisses and flirty touches here and there, showing them how attractive they were in his eyes while he drained small amounts of energy from them every now and then. But he let them set the pace, wanting them to be comfortable with him before they went any further. He didn't want to rush anything with them.
But today he had noticed the subtle change in their demeanor. Sometimes it almost seemed as if they would shy away from his touch, hesitant in their reaction. But as he stood behind them today, his hands on theirs as they kneaded the dough together and he let his warm breath roam the back of their neck, he felt their energy increase. They had leaned their back against him until not even a sheet could fit between them. All while they continued talking, laughing and kneading the cake dough.
While neither of them could really say how it had happened, the path had led them to the bedroom, their lips parted only for the necessary oxygen. Now they were lying together on the bed, more kisses were exchanged, lovely words he whispered in their ear, which he knew they wanted and needed to hear to increase their own self-confidence filled the air between giggling while fabric rubbed against fabric.
Matthew's hands traveled down their arm, chaste yet lustful as he broke the kiss to meet their eyes. And what he saw filled him with warmth. Desire. They radiated pure lust and sexual tension. And while Matthew was quite experienced, he knew it would be their first time. And he wanted to make it as perfect as possible for them. He wanted them, lusted after them, and they seemed ready to take the next step with him.
With every piece of clothing that left their body, he felt them getting more and more nervous. But he wasn't going to let their insecurities get the better of them, not when he saw all that was good and perfect in them. Every word, carefully chosen, every kiss and touch a reassurance, an assurance that he was there for them and would catch them. When the last piece of clothing was spread out on the floor next to the bed, he caught a glimpse of them reaching for the covers. But he stopped their movement, took their hand and kissed each of their knuckles. "Don't hide from me. Please…" a pleading tone spoken with an air of dominance, a smile reaching their eyes that he wanted to drown in.
Now their hands began to wander as well, almost cautiously feeling the muscles of his upper body while he leaned towards them and his lips got hold of their earlobe. A soft moan, no more than a whiff, left their lips as he began to explore their neck with butterfly kisses, his hand trailing down their torso. With velvety movements he stroked their thighs, elicited another soft moan from them before his hand wandered back up to their navel.
He lifted his head, his lips found theirs and he smiled into the kiss, their tongues beginning to dance together. He liked the way they snuggled up to him, their fingers on his skin that sent goosebumps spreading like a warm shiver. His hand continued to move down, but stopped just before it reached his target. He didn't want to push them, wanted to let them decide how far they would go. And they seemed to understand his intention, for their hand covered his only moments later.
Matthew raised his head and looked at them, an unspoken question behind his bright blue eyes that enchanted them again and again. A smile, genuine and bright, was the reply and their hand moved down with his. He leaned down again, stealing their lips for another kiss, his fingers gently tracing between their legs, while theirs retreated. He felt the liquid that had already collected between their legs and had to control himself not to activate his enthrallment.
He didn't want to influence them, not like this, not today. Today he would step back, give them an experience that would leave them wanting more. Their moan into his mouth snapped him out of his thoughts and his fingers began a sensual dance between their legs. His mouth parted from theirs and he kissed their cheek before running his tongue down their neck. A finger was placed at their entrance before he gently started to push it in.
He absorbed every reaction, no matter how small, moving his finger without taking his eyes off them. Their sighs and moans were music to his ears that he wanted to hear over and over again. When he dipped a second finger, they arched slightly, but immediately pressed closer to him. "Please…" at this point they didn't seem to be sure what they wanted to ask anymore. Matthew breathed playfully in their ear, tickling them with his breath and they giggled with a groan. The movement of his fingers quickened, his cock throbbing painfully against their bare leg.
He felt their climax announced, tasted the energy on their skin and with a tongue flick down their throat and two more thrusts they came onto his fingers, their body trembling with excitement as his name flowed from their lips. Matthew enjoyed watching their body melt through his touch, accepting the energy they offered without withdrawing his fingers. Only when they were off their high did he slowly pull away and gave them a quick peck on the lips before looking at them again.
They blinked, still caught in the fog of need, as they looked up at him. They then wrapped their arms around his neck, pulling him in for a passionate kiss, so that Matthew had to brace his hands next to their head to keep from falling on top of them. Breathless laughter gurgled in his throat, aroused by his partner's newfound boldness. As their mouths parted, they lifted their head, their velvety lips brushing his neck.
Matthew was about to pull away, take them in his arms and just enjoy having them there when he heard their words whisper in his ear "I want you." Three words that made his eyes widen before he caught himself. A grin spread across his face as he raised his head again to look at them. "You have me! All of me!" It was their turn to laugh before they ran their hand down his back and spread their legs further, a rosy pink spreading across their face.
It was only a few moments before he was hovering over them, his legs between theirs. With one hand he steadies himself, the other gently stroked their leg while he pushed it a little further to the side. His tip, moistened with precum, lightly touched their entrance. He looked deep into their eyes as he slowly pushed himself into them. "Tell me if I have to stop!" Inch by inch he pressed into them, watching their expression, the desire in their eyes. Their lips parted slightly, they let out a ragged breath, moaning while he felt their walls enclosing him.
Once deep inside them, he leaned in and kissed them passionately, struggling to lie still so they could adjust to his size. It wasn't until they gently rolled their hips that he began to move, cautiously and slowly at first, his hand finding theirs, the fingers intertwined before he placed them next to their head. Matthew's lips never left theirs for long, he sucked in their moan, enjoyed the tightness that surrounded him and with every thrust he penetrated deeper and a little harder.
"Matthew..." his name slipped out of their mouth like a prayer, moans accompanied by skin rubbing together. He lifted his head and looked into their face. Their eyes closed, lips parted with excitement, pink cheeks with small drops of sweat sticking to them. Their energy radiated from them, almost blinding him with its intensity and while his breathing became more and more ragged, he felt the walls around him contracting faster and faster, muscles massaging him and he increased his pace further.
"I… Matthew, I…" It was just a babble, too caught up in their own lust to think straight. Brilliant blue eyes focused on them, his tongue wetting his own lips. "Let go..." he murmured barely audibly. Their body responded to his command instantly.
Their orgasm swept over them like a wave, his thrusts sloppy as he chased his own high. His name, now a sharp scream on their lips, muscles holding him tight and pushing him over the edge. He came with quick thrusts, their energy pouring out of every pore and he sucked it in, enjoying the feeling and hearing their ragged breathing. He stayed motionless on them, letting them and himself catch their breath before pulling out and lying down beside them. He immediately reached out an arm and pulled them into a hug, with the other hand pulling a blanket over them both.
For a moment the room was quiet, only the sound of their breathing together as they took their time and just enjoyed each other's presence. Finally, a thought struck Matthew and he turned his head in their direction with a grin. He kissed the crown of their hair before whispering softly, "I have an idea about the strawberries..."

What if… Prolouge
navigation
Ch.1
comment to be tagged!
synopsis: The boys have never gone to school together, and now that they’re finally in high school, the mothers have agreed to let the boys attend the same high school, giving into their plea’s. Now instead of being homeschooled, the boys will start at public high school and do it together :).
Tumblr media
“ Here are your schedules. First period starts in 45 minutes so you can walk around the school. Here’s a pass so the security guards don’t stop you, they’ll know your new here once they see it. Have a good first day and stop by my office at the end of the day!” Ms. Miller stated, the guidance counselor. By the end of it, the boys were already out of her office and standing in the hall.
“ Okay let me see your schedules.” James said, as the boys all handed they’re papers to James.
“ Do we have any classes together?” Matthew asked hopefully. James studied the papers, looking through them all.
“ Erik and I don’t have any classes together.” James said, handing Erik his schedule back. Erik showed a look of sadness as he looked over his schedule.
“ Sam you have physical education and lunch with Matthew.” James said, before Matthew let out a squeak as Sam hit his shoulder.
“ That’ll be fun.” Sam said, taking his schedule back from James.
“ Damien you don’t have any classes with any of us.” James said, before the group grew silent.
“ You’ll be fine. I’m sure the people will be decent.” Matthew said hopefully trying to cheer Damien up.
“ It’s fine I guess. I’ll get through it. I’m considered a Freshman right? That seems to be why.” Damien said, looking over his schedule.
“ Yes. Erik and I are seniors, ‘upperclassmen’ to Damien’s grade level. Sam is a junior and Matthew is a Sophmore.” James explained as he began to look over his own schedule.
“ Well, are we gonna take a look around?” Sam asked as he stared at the school’s trophy case.
“ Seems like you already started.” Erik said, walking past Sam as the group continued to walk down the hall, about to explore the school.
“ Oh shut it pretty boy.” Sam said, following the group.
“ How many floors are there to this school?” Damien asked James, as they walked up the stairs.
“ Six floors, three different buildings. There are two fields, one football field and another soccer field.” James said, as they reached the top floor.
“ What are we up here for?” Matthew asked, as they pushed through the heavy door to see a hallway full of lockers.
“ We’re going to find our lockers.” James said. “ Ms. Miller said our’s should be together, since our mother’s requested so. We can start from up here.” James said, as he looked down to his sheet. His locker number was A452.
“ What floor are we on?” Asked Damien, looking at his schedule.
“ We’re on the fifth floor.” James said, walking along the lockers.
“ Maybe if we just hit them all-“ Sam began, before someone cleared they’re throat. The boys all turned to a small woman, standing near the lockers, holding the door to her classroom open with her foot.
“ Do you boys need help?” She asked, her voice calm. She looked older, in her 60’s maybe. She smiled warmly though, as she walked over to the boys.
“ Uh yes we do miss. We’re trying to find our lockers.” James said, before the small woman nodded and took his paper. She let out a laugh as she looked over his paper.
“ Here’s a little tip. The letter is the building you’re in. The first number next to that letter, is the floor your on.” She said, smiling to them. James felt his eyes widen as he let out a nervous chuckle.
“ That explains so much. Thank you for your help.” Erik said. The small woman nodded smiling at them.
“ My name is Mrs. Wilson if you boys ever need anything. My room is right there so don’t hesitate to ask for anything.” She said smiling, before turning on her heel to leave.
“ So what I got from that” Started Sam, “ Was we’re on the wrong floor.” He said, crossing his arms. James let out a sigh before nodding.
“ Yes Sam, we are on the wrong floor.” James confirmed, before they all began to walk back to the staircase they had came from, getting ready to go look for they’re lockers.
╭─────────╮
“ How the fuck do I open this?” Sam asked, as James was helping Damien open his locker.
“ Sam I told you-“ James began before Sam let out an aggravated huff.
“ I know I know.” He said, before trying it again.
“ Matthew what’s your locker number?” Erik asked, as he finished setting up his locker.
“ A453.” Matthew said, pointing to the locker next to James’s locker.
“Sam let me see your combination.” James said. Sam handed the paper yo James, before looking back at the locker.
“ What?” Sam asked.
“ Sam this isn’t your locker.” James said, before pointing to the locker next to the one Sam had been trying. “ This is your locker.”
Matthew snickered as Damien gave Sam a pat on the back. This was definitely going to be something.

It's game night! Who prepares the snacks, the games, the one who cheats, the one who always loses, wins?
Matthew is absolutely the one preparing the snacks, James helps him but the kitchen is kind of Matthew's space
Damien, and Matthew pick the games. Sam helps too but it's mostly to make sure the he won't be bored to tears. (So Sam says at least, but there are a few games that are consistently added to the pile that no one remembers putting there that Sam always complains about like Uno)
Sam is absolutely the biggest cheater, if everyone looks away for a moment he'll use his speed to change the places of pieces on the board game or something. He never gets away with it, and he knows he never will but it's fun to rile up his brothers especially James and Matthew!
Everyone besides Matthew has lost an equal number of times, Matthew is just too good at games to not have a pretty good win streak. Though for humors sake I think it would be hilarious if James was the one who could just never seem to win on game night.
Erik is the one to make sure the living room is comfy and the background noise is something they've all agreed to. I like to think the brothers have made like a Spotify playlist together with a bunch of songs they all enjoy and that is the playlist they always use for things like family trips and game nights, ect.

Matthew Anderson x Reader *Healing Inner Child Comfort*
Warnings: Childhood trauma, however kept rather vague and generalized. Not beta read.
Summary: After having to take care and deal with so many traumatic things at a young age, it's made you feel like an adult, even when you weren't. Now that you are an adult, looking back and realizing you couldn't just be a kid and have a normal childhood really upsets you. Matthew comforts the character and shows them that while it might not be the same, it's still possible to just act like a kid and heal your inner child.
Word Count: 2,620
A/N: Reader isn't exactly Mika, and I spaced out the time from the first game between Malix and Diana it took a little over a month, because having the events happening within a week is wild to me.
Can you tell I'm a bit biased based on the word count? Also, I was just rereading my other drabble I wrote for him and didn't realize how similar these are (in which tag is involved). So maybe one day I might come back to this and do it a bit differently, but who knows. Expect the next prompt with Matthew to either be really short or really long, because again, it is kind of based off of my own experiences. So I might get way into it, or keep it short to avoid myself from getting triggered. I guess we'll see!
Story under the cut to save space/scroll time!
Things had already started settling into a new normal in the mansion that your grandfather left you in his will. While things were a bit chaotic at first, finding bloodied incubi men on the floor wasn't ideal, nor did it make sense to you at first. But now? You can't imagine anything different, the five brothers really opened up your eyes to a whole new world besides the one you were used to. They had made you breakfast this morning, like they typically did to show you gratitude for letting them stay there after the events with both Malix and Diana.
However, as everyone was starting to clean up Sam and Matthew had seemed to start bickering with each other, over what exactly? You didn't exactly catch it, but it did lead to Matthew starting an unspoken game of tag between him and his brothers. While James seemed to stay out of it, but had a small smile on his features showing his true feelings. Eric and Damien had joined in, laughing for a moment before James seemed to put an end to it so that they could all finish cleaning up.
As you watched, for some reason it made you feel a bit envious. At first, you didn't quite understand why you felt that way. The more you thought about it, the more you realized that you couldn't remember the last time you had played tag. You were sure you had played tag at some point, but as you tried to recall the memory, only the memories of your childhood that you could remember were of things you wished you could forget.
This only lead you to think about it more, surely there had to have been a happy childhood memory in there somewhere. You had some friends in your elementary school days, and you remember being outside at recess. But what did you do during recess? You remember being on the swings quite often, and watching the other kids around you playing, and you remember being on the monkey bars, but those were all things that you remembered doing alone. The envy within you started to turn into bitter sadness, you remembered how hard it was to get birthday party invites, and if it was a sleepover, you usually couldn't go, or stay for the whole night.
The traumas you experienced as a kids started to bubble up more and more as you thought about it, and you could remember having to hold yourself differently. You always had to take care of someone, or fix something that shouldn't have been your problem at such a young age. You started to realize just how fast you had to grow up, how you started to see the world different even as a child, and how you had to learn how to survive at such a young age. That eventually, it seemed like birthday parties and whether or not you were invited to play soccer with the other kids all became secondary to your other list of priorities. Getting good grades in school, doing your chores at home, making sure to watch your tone around your parents, and how to determine what set of footsteps approached your bedroom door became the new set of priorities for you.
"Mx? Are you okay?" James seemed to question, snapping you back into your reality.
You didn't even know that you had started crying, suddenly feeling so angry that you started shaking. Now that you were an adult and away from your parents, your childhood home, your past, it finally hit you all at once just how much you missed out on. You couldn't even seem to answer James, simply shaking your head, before suddenly taking your leave to get some fresh air before it somehow got worse. You weren't mad at the boys for playing around, you were mad at the fact that you didn't seem to know how to ask to join in, how to be child again, instead of the paranoid adult you grew up to be. You were mad that you missed out on a whole childhood that you couldn't get back, and now it's too late to do anything about it.
It felt like grief to you, similar to the grief you felt when your grandfather passed. But this time, it felt as if you grieving over a potential life you could have had. Grieving the child version of yourself that deserved better, and never was able to get it by the time that childhood was over.
It was Matthew who came out first to try and comfort you, they all seemed to want to, but you had grown close to Matthew in a way you didn't quite realize until that moment. You enjoyed his company because of how "childish" he seemed to be, despite being able to hold his own fair share of responsibility and wisdom. You wished you could be more like him in that way, being able to just let go and have fun, instead of holding yourself back all because of how you were raised. Maybe Damien told them what you had been thinking about at the time, and they decided that maybe it was best for Matthew to be the one to come out to you. Or maybe he just wanted to make sure you were alright on his own accord.
"Hey, (Y/N)." Matthew greeted at first, "Do you mind if I stay out here with you?"
You simply shrugged at first, unsure of how to feel. You knew there would have to be a conversation about how you were feeling at some point. Being vulnerable was always a bit tough for you, having to always keep it together for the sake of your family.
"Take your time, you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to." Matthew added, not trying to pressure you into a conversation you were ready to have yet.
"It's hard to explain." You simply shook your head at first, not knowing where to begin, and not exactly wanting to spill your whole life story to him in order to explain.
"Then don't explain, not yet any way… Do you want to play tag with me?" Matthew suddenly questioned, catching you a bit off guard.
"What?" You asked, but it was pointless to ask, as Matthew suddenly approached you and touched you, yelling "Tag! You're it!" before running away from you.
It took you a moment to process what had happened, before you started to walk towards him at first. He smiled, walking backwards away from you, waiting to see if you would suddenly stop, or decide to chase after him. After a moment, you picked up your pace, feeling unsure about what was happening but still trying to go after him anyway. Soon, Matthew took off running again, and you couldn't help but feel the need to stop. It felt a bit silly to you to be playing a game of tag. A couple of minutes had passed, before you felt a voice suddenly come from behind you.
"Are you going to tag me?" Matthew questioned, as you quickly turned around, a bit surprised, and yet, still reaching out for him to attempt to tag him anyway.
He laughed, dodging out of the way, before you squinted your eyes at him dodging out of the way and attempting to tag him again. He was so close to you, how could you not tag him? Yes, it felt silly, but if he was going to tease you about it, at least you could make an attempt to try. It seemed like mere inches were keeping the two of you separated, before you finally decided to chase after him and finally tagging him.
"Tag! Finally!" You shouted, sounding a bit exasperated, making Matthew laugh at your reaction.
However, it took half a second for him to tag you again, as you forgot that it was now your turn to run.
"Tag! New rule, no tag backs." Matthew smirked.
"What? That's not fair, you just tagged me back!" You defended, tagging him back.
"Fine, I'll give you one freebie, but now there's no tag backs!" Matthew stated, as he seemed to run back inside the house.
Within a second you saw Eric coming outside chasing Matthew, who only stopped when he saw you and started to run towards you. You assumed it was out of pure instinct more than a cooperation to playing that you ran away from him. Eric did seem a lot more threatening when he was suddenly chasing after you suddenly, when you had just been standing mindlessly a second ago. It took a second, before Eric tagged you, you thought maybe it was unfair, unsure if it was simply his long legs giving him the advantage, or the fact that they were a completely different species with different advantages than you. As soon as you were tagged, you looked around, Matthew couldn't have possibly known that you were it now, right? Would he even trust you if you approached him anyway? Then you smirked, heading inside calmly. You tried to clear your mind of your little plan, just in case Damien wanted to rat you out, as you found Sam first. Sam didn't think much of anything, before you tagged him, as you announced the "No tag backs!" rule quickly, which gave you a head start.
"Aw, what!?" Sam groaned, before he ran towards Damien, who did happen to hear his thoughts and already had a head start before Sam could even process where his brother could be.
This game of tag seemed to last for at least thirty minutes, but it felt more like two hours. You were out of breath, and at times you had even given up on running all together, opting for a casual stroll instead and accepting your fate. At some point you had to call "times" to get a drink of water, and encouraged the others to get their water break too, and that they'd all have at least ten seconds to run before the game started up again.
As much as James had tried to avoid the inevitable, even telling his brothers that he wasn't interested in playing, when it came to you, he eventually gave in and finally let you tag him. You felt even more excited, running outside and yelling to everyone else that James was it. This only seemed to make the brothers up the stakes when it came to each other, but always made sure to at least slow themselves down when it came to you.
When your feet finally started to hurt, you collapsed onto the soft grass with a laugh. You couldn't help but start crying again in the midst of your laughter, suddenly overcome with a sense of nostalgia and happiness. Matthew collapsed next to you not too long after.
"I'm not it, I swear! We should team up and go hide from them and see how long it takes for them to notice and find us." Matthew suggested, as you simply nodded at first, wiping your tears away for a moment.
You followed him, telling him how you had found out that the mansion had a small secret side room in the library. Immediately the two of you snuck around to try and make it to the library without getting noticed by the others. Matthew was your lookout when you entered the library and opened up the secret room, motioning for him to follow in quickly. An automatic light seemed to flick on in the room, as you had closed the door behind the two of you. It was nice to get a bit of a breather from running, you never had really thought about hiding during a game of tag before.
"Thank you." You simply told him at first, as it was just the first thing on your side.
"Yeah, I just wanted you to feel included." He simply replied, and you couldn't help but think that he wasn't completely being truthful about his intentions about his game of tag.
"I didn't really get this a lot growing up." You started, hoping to ease into why you had been upset earlier.
"We didn't either…" Matthew sympathized, and you couldn't help but forget that they didn't have the best life back in the Abyssal Plains.
"Do you ever get angry that you didn't get a childhood?"
"Things are a bit different in the Abyssal Plains… Growing up, we didn't really think about it much. We did get to play with each other sometimes, but I imagine it wasn't like how you guys played as children here."
"That makes sense… When I saw you guys playing tag earlier, I just couldn't help but wonder when the last time I had played tag was, and my memories just continued to disappoint me." You confessed, "I didn't realize just how fast I had to grow up as a child…"
"I'm sorry to hear that… I really am."
You simply nodded as a response at first, "I just can't help but grieve a childhood I never had, I'm sure I'll get over it eventually…" you shrugged.
"You might have missed out of your childhood, but that doesn't mean you can't make your adulthood something your child self could be proud of and have fun with." Matthew stated, as he was fidgeting with some of the random dusty stuff in the room.
"Where would I even start?" You couldn't help but ask, it was supposed to be rhetorical, but he turned and smiled at you anyway.
"Well, I think you already started."
You smiled, feeling a sense of comfort at his words. You did feel that earlier, that happiness and nostalgia. Maybe it wasn't impossible to get those feelings back, to feel comfortable about feeling like a little kid, and making the child version of you proud. There was a moment of comfortable silence while you processed his words.
"Hey, isn't this the book that James was reading yesterday?" Matthew asked, lifting up the book, as you walked over and gently examined the book with him.
It was in fact, not dusty at all, at least compared to the other things in the room. It was just then that they had noticed that one of the leather chairs in the room seemed to not have a spec of dust on it either. Just as they had noticed it, the two of you looked at each other.
"We should leave, just in case." You mentioned "nonchalantly" as you pointed towards the door.
"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea." He agreed, and just as the two of you had began to leave the secret room, James had come into the room.
The two of you froze, "Are you it, James?" Matthew couldn't help but ask him.
"Well, I suppose there's only one way to find out." James seemed to smirk, teasing them both.
"You wouldn't play tag in the library, would you? There's quite a lot of important things in here…" You added, trying to reason with him as you inched closer to the door that lead out to the hallway.
"I wouldn't, you are right about that." James nodded, making you let out a breath.
Before you could process it, Matthew had already taken off running. But just as he had left out to the hallway, Eric had been waiting for him and tagged him making Matthew let out a groan of frustration. This made you, and the two eldest brothers laugh. Just as Matthew had started to come back, you were quick to come up with a new rule.
"The library is off limits!"
