Hey, Brulo. For once, it isn't Anton barging into your casino. It's some really. Frantic and old as hell looking teenager, fumbling through the doors. Sweat is literally pouring down his face as his converses screech against the carpeted floor, practically threatening to start a fire, before-- Sorry, Ronnie throws himself over the bar and hides under your bar. What--
--Oh, there's Anton barging in. Those doors you got re-installed about seven hours ago? Gone off their hinges again as he barrels in, harshly looking around. He doesn't settle down, but he does eventually lock eyes with the divorced, BALD, EXTREMELY BALD man.
"Where is he." Ronnie literally just told him to shut up. He gets that from Annie all of the time. Jeez.
. . .
The sad part? This still isn't the strangest thing that's occurred to him. He shoots a side-eye at the terrified child. Those eyes were practically BEGGING Brulo to keep his lip shut. He sighed loudly, rubbed his temples, and decided to ignore Ronnie. It's not like this teen can rob him any more than the not-so-red big guy, anyway.
Anton bursts in, as usual, and he's already calculating the costs of repairing the door for the 5,000th time. ( Can he even sell the mattress he keeps in the back . . . ? He already gave up his apartment last year. )
He dragged his hand down his cheek. The bags under his eyes grew darker every second. He the glass cup back on the table and gave Anton the most haunted look of a man who's regretted every decision he's made since the day he was born.
❝ We're closed. ❞

reading the other completed novel by the same author as the last one i read and maaaan 🥺 天洛水 really has a solid author's voice when they write. I am awed. I can really tell both of these come from the same mind and I adore their writing. I might actually try checking their publishing site to read more (looks at jjwxc and realizes i have no idea how this website works and idk how to get firefox to translate the site 😐 i'll have to look at it on my computer)

@newdleboy foretold : i didn't think i'd survive it, either.. - for xing !!
‘ i thought you were dead ‘ prompts / still accepting !
It’s so difficult, and yet he makes it so, so easy.
Xingyin’s traumas have since been buried and processed, she thinks. It’s been over a thousand years, and she still bears the scars of her trails and her survival of her past conflicts, emotionally, psychologically, AND physically. But maybe the moon child didn’t really deal with it as well as she thought she had.
❝ but behold ! here you are, alive and well. ❞ The girl jests with a short laugh, a minor pat to his shoulder to emphasize her comment. ❝ well, mostly anyways, right ? ❞
After living on earth for a period of time, her totally unintended reason for visiting has kept in contact long after the Bone Demon had been dealt with. MK was surprised to learn of Xingyin’s existence, like many -- and there will be more similar reactions to come, no doubt -- and for whatever reason or another, they just... clicked ! Besides reuniting with her mother, Xingyin can’t remember the last time she’s been this happy ; the Monkey Kid is going through his own problems that range from his job as a delivery boy to taking on heinous enemies many thought were only myth and legend.
Shoulder leans against his, a tender moment passing as they watch the sunset from the rooftop of his apartment building. It’s still so early in.. whatever THIS is that they have going on, moon-hailing maiden doesn’t really know what to do with herself. Should she hold his hand ? Say something sweet and sappy ? ... Eh, she’ll figure it out later.
❝ it feels nice talking about it with someone that isn’t my mom. she’s been through a lot too, but there’s still things i’m scared to tell her, even after all these years, you know ? ❞

[ WALTZ ] from emmett !
- ̗̀ ♡⃗ ― soft actions prompts ! ( accepting ) ― 💌 : ʳᵉᶜᶤᵉᵛᵉᵈ ᶠʳᵒᵐ / 𝓮𝓶𝓶𝓮𝓽𝓽 𝓶𝓾𝓷𝓻𝓸𝓮 ( @lovefell )
- ̗̀ ♡⃗ ― even the most ᵐᵘᶰᵈᵃᶰᵉ of tasks are made fun with emmett ; even something like doing the dishes can have her laughing , grinning from ear to ear as eyes 𝓰𝓵𝓲𝓶𝓶𝓮𝓻 with happiness & adoration whilst he takes her hand-- suddenly drying & putting away the dishes takes the backseat ; the music she plays as they work capturing his attention far more as he takes her hand & twirls her around the small space . suzie giggles , pulled close to emmett's chest as he rests a hand against the small of her back ; fingers of the other lacing together with hers as she hums 𝙲𝙾𝙽𝚃𝙴𝙽𝚃𝙻𝚈 . swaying to the music , her head rests against his chest as she listens to the soothing , steady beat of his heart . it's like a scene from a movie , her heart is fluttering , doing flips in her chest as he dips her back-- hands gripping his shoulders tightly on instict ; not that she ever thought he would actually drop her . she's 𝓱𝓸𝓹𝓮𝓵𝓮𝓼𝓼𝓵𝔂 𝓲𝓷 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮 with him ; that much is 𝖕𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖋𝖚𝖑𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖇𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘 by the way she sits & waits every day at the window for him to come home , & certainly by the way the ring on her finger is worn ᵖʳᵒᵘᵈˡʸ & ʰᵃᵖᵖᶤˡʸ ᶠˡᵃᵘᶰᵗᵉᵈ about after it was gifted to her on christmas eve ; a promise to be hers forever , to love her & her alone forever . ❝ i l-love you s-so much , emmett . ❞
