#and much worse: his girlfriend Thena

[softquietsteadylove]

We definitely need more Thenamesh presidency AU!

Would you write more? Maybe Thena has to do an interview and the interviewer is a bit too friendly and asks her some subtile weird questions and basically undresses her with his eyes? Let Gil step in and protect his girlfriend in the most professional way? 😄

Thank you! Keep up your amazing work! ❤️

"Thank you for joining me, Madam President."

Thena smiled, nodding courteously but quiet thus far. Not only did she have to be careful of every single word she said these days, but she couldn't afford to get tired and run low on energy part way through the possibly lengthy interview.

"The rumours are true," her interviewer smiled, and that was always a dangerous start to a sentence. He tilted his head at her, "you are as beautiful as you are intimidating."

Gil looked up from Thena's schedule in his hand.

Thena tilted her head, though, "is that part of the question."

Eros laughed, "no, you're right it's off the record. Call it an attempt to get to know you?"

"I believe that is what the interview will be for."

Again, Eros took no offense to what would be a dry response to some and a defensive remark to most. He laughed, letting it roll off of him. He was renowned for his good nature, as well as being so young for the field of very serious televised journalism. He was popular with younger viewers for his looks.

They needed this interview to secure the young vote--the key to real, effective positive change.

"Yes ma'am, I am very honoured to have the opportunity, let it be said," Eros sat up a little straighter, almost like a professional interviewing the president. He had a dry kind of tone, his words somewhat running together.

"Your show is quite popular," Thena began her part of the battle (Sersi had advised her not to call it that). She had to meet him toe to toe so he didn't twist anything out of her, nor get the chance to misrepresent anything. "My people were happy to arrange the interview."

Kingo had told her that they had to do well with Eros if they wanted any relevance with young people beyond being known as the era of betrayal.

"Careful not to flatter me, ma'am," Eros continued to schmooze as if they were having drinks at a work conference as opposed to meeting in a secure location for journalistic purposes. He ran a hand through his hair. "I am prone to ego."

"A privilege few can afford."

"I believe you could be afforded anything," he tilted his head, his eyes drifting over her for just a second.

Thena shifted in her chair. Her hands were clasped together, because it was safer than having them loose enough to fidget and betray micro-expressions for her.

Gil cleared his throat off to the side, motioning for things to keep moving for the sake of time. He was frowning.

"So, Madam President," Eros began a proper question as if he hadn't been blatantly flirting with her - the most powerful woman in the country - seconds ago. "You have arrived to a rather precarious position."

Finally the interview began in earnest. Gil drifted around the edges of it, of course asked to keep his presence to a minimum, but permitted to stay in Thena's proximity, as was her security.

A few things were off limits--the direct mention of Ikaris' vacated position, the status of the staff investigations after his betrayal, suspects, that kind of thing. Although the ramifications of such things were technically fair game.

There were two cameras set up strategically on tripods. Eros' show would use edited footage of the interview, which would be subject to their review for security reasons. Gil mostly stayed behind Thena's shoulder, out of the frame, keeping his eyes on the popular show host.

"Now, I would like to ask," Eros looked up from his dossier of questions and points to bring up. He had done so a few times already and every time he did, the tone of the interview would...shift. "And this can be off the record, if you like."

Gil rolled his eyes.

"But it must be said that this is the first time an unmarried woman has come to power as you have." There it was. Gil shook his head faintly, although it seemed Eros was done taking his silent direction. "Does this affect the office you keep, in any way?"

"Why would it?" Thena asked flatly, not only not dignifying his question but also answering the real point of it. "No one in the cabinet minds if I am married or not, only if I can do the job of serving our country."

"So would you say you're on the market?"

Gil snapped Thena's schedule closed, as loudly as he could but not nearly as loudly as he would like. Eros looked up at him; he swiped his hand across his throat, telling him to cut it.

Eros barely acknowledged being told to back off but leaned back in his chair again. Of course doing so gave him another opportunity to run his eyes over Thena.

She was wearing a light grey pantsuit, but the way he was looking at her certainly seemed as if she were half dressed.

"Perhaps we should take five," Eros suggested in a much more - and perhaps falsely - amiable tone. He uncrossed his legs and stood with his dossier in hand. "I am happy to fetch you some water, ma'am."

Gil held out his hand for Thena to hold as she stood. "No outside food or drink--thank you."

The 'thank you' really was an afterthought.

"Of course," Eros nodded, giving his most charming smile. "I shall return in a moment, then."

Security both let him out and followed him as an escort. Such was the requirement of being alone in a room with Madam President herself.

Thena sighed, accepting the water bottle Gil himself was holding, "how long is this?"

"Probably another hour," he chuckled, speaking quietly as they hovered together. "You're doing great so far. You haven't even told him to go fuck himself."

Thena let out a quiet laugh against her hand, but it was certainly real. A few of the security team laughed too (those close enough to them to hear it).

Gil angled his shoulder for her, getting as close as they could afford when not totally alone. Although it didn't stop his eyes from being a little too soft when he looked at her. "Just a little more. I'm right here if you need me."

Thena's eyes weren't much better at keeping their monumental secret. "Thank you, as always."

Gil chuckled, taking the water bottle from her, "you know there's no need."

Her hand brushed against his on the way, "still."

A knock on the door signalled that their guest was back.

Thena sighed but let Gil hold her hand as she sat down again. He leaned down to her ear, "I'm gonna kill him if he asks you about being single again."

Thena laughed, although she couldn't reply. She gave his hand one more little squeeze, prepared to delve back into their work.

"Come in," Gil announced, although he stayed at the edge of Thena's chair. Eros nodded to him as he walked back into the room and to his own seat. Gil kept his eye on him, "limit personal questions going forward."

It was a very straightforward statement, and one that could be expected from her personal attache. No one would necessarily suspect it was her boyfriend telling this clown to stop hitting on her in front of him.

#Thenamesh President AU #I'm so glad people liked this! #a little forbidden relationship is always zesty #Gil has to watch this idiot try to flirt with the president #and much worse: his girlfriend Thena #Thena both is surprised and isn't #Eros is a little more forward than she would have expected but also he's asking in such a way and being just pushy enough #she can't really accuse him of misconduct because it happens too fast and too lightly #Gil says I can and tells him that he's going to act inappropriately they'll take Thena and walk out right now #Eros plays dumb #who's inappropriate??? #but Gil gives him a look and he's like okay this guy will fight me in the parking lot #the rest of the interview goes well #Eros stands to shake her hand which she allows #Gil sees the hint of him turning her hand over to kiss the back of it #he springs into action and pulls her back to whisper in her ear #scheduling...or something #no one kisses any part of Thena but him! #or another political dignitary if it's polite in their cultural custom #BUT THAT'S IT

Apollo: (Begins to Blush a Little Once He Finally Starts Calming Himself Down) Right..... (Chuckles Awkwardly) Sorry about that...

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly) Goodness, Herr Forehead. I had no idea you had all of this much energy of excitement in you.

Wocky: Yeah, man. You alright?

Apollo: Yeah... It's just that....This is literally the first time I've ever beaten anyone in an actual Mario Party game that aren't the CPUs.

Ema: (Starts Smirking) Did you kept getting into Last Place or something?

Ema: (Raised An Eyebrow)

Apollo: ('Sigh') Okay, fine. Maybe I got it four to five times....But I mostly get Second!

Klavier: (Chuckles Once More) Well, either way, I, for one, am happy for victory, Herr Forehead.

Wocky: Yeah. Even if your Pop-Off Theme is kind of Trash.

Apollo: "Trash"? Dude, this is the Theme of Voltron!

Ema: A Nerdy choice of a song if you ask me. We can think of a better Pop-Off Song than that.

Apollo: (Crosses his Arm) Yeah? Well, whenever either of you three win a game of Mario Party, you can try picking one of your own.

Ema: (Gives Apollo a Competitive Smirk) You're on, Justice.

Klavier Gavin

Guilty Love (Klavier's Theme) Plays......

Klavier: (Playing his Guitar A Little More Victoriously)

Apollo: (Unamused) Okay. Who idea was it to let Klavier play his own theme song as his Pop-Off Song?

Wocky: Better question is who let this man play the guitar in the house?

Ema: C'mon, you babies. It ain't that bad.

Apollo: (Raised an Eyebrow Towards Ema) You know, I'm surprised you're actually taking a liking to this, Ema.

Ema: (Shrugged) Hey. When you're dating a Prosecutor/Rockstar 24/7, you tend find "some" appreciation from his work.

Klavier: (Smiles Brightly) Well, Well, Well, my beautiful losers! How are you liking the performance so far?

Apollo: (Rolled His Eyes) It's Half Decent....

Wocky: (Annoyed) That shit been playing everywhere I go! It's already starting to get old, Gavin!!

Ema: Eh don't worry about them, Fop. (Smiles Very Lightly) You're.... doing great so far.

Klavier: (Smiles Softly as he Gently Holds Ema's Hand) I humbly thank you for your undying support, Fräulein Skyes~ (Kiss the top of Ema's Hand)

Ema: (Blushes Heavily While Turning Her Hand and Herself Away from her Boyfriend) J-J-Just Finish your Pop-Off already, you stupid Fop!....

T-Pain: All I Do Is Win Win Win No Matter What! Got Money on My......

Apollo: (Rolled his Eyes, Unamused) You know, this might be the most inaccurate song about you I've ever heard. You only won one game of-

Ema: (Have One Finger Towards Apollo) Shhhhhhhhhhhh......

Apollo: ('Sighs Heavily') .....Mario Party.....

Ema: Apollo.

Apollo: What?

Ema: Don't take offense or anything, but....You guys lost. (Gives Apollo a Smug Smirk on Her Face) And Losers don't complain.

Wocky: (Shrugged) She has a point, man. Won't do any good if we complain.

Apollo: ('Sighs in Defeat') Fiiiiine....

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly) Oh, don't be like that, Herr Forehead. Ema won the game fair and square. The least we can do is let her enjoy her little victory for now.

Ema: .......Hey, Fop.

Klavier: Hm?

Ema: (Got up From her Chair and Made her way to Klavier) There's something I need to tell you.

Klavier: Oh really? Well, what ever could it be Fra-

Before he can even finish his own sentence, Klavier gets pulled into a Quick Passionate Kiss from his Girlfriend, Ema Skye's, before she starts pulling away.

Ema: (Took a Deep Breath) There....Now we're even.

Klavier: (Chuckles Once More) Honestly....You never seize to amaze me, my dear.

Ema: (Look Away from Klavier While Blushing) Whatever......

Wocky Kitaki

Apache by the Sugarhill Gang Plays.....

Apollo: Are we seriously doing this right now?

Wocky: (Got into Position to Dance for his Pop-Off Song with Everyone Unhappily Joining in) We are going to dance into the entire song! My Pop-Off, My Rules!

And just like that, once they start shaking their hips six times, the gang starts dancing around to the music. (Except for Ema, who starts doing a pretty lazy Robot Dance)

Wocky: Happier! I wanna see you dance with a smile on all of your faces!! Smiles!!

Klavier: You know, I'm not sure if the Sugarhill Gang really sang that song-

Wocky: Are you still talking, Gavin?!

Klavier: Well I mean-

Wocky: You lost, remember? Losers don't complain! All they do is dance!!

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly While Rolling His Eyes) Okay, Herr Kitaki.

Apollo: (Whispers to Ema) You know, I have no idea Wocky would be that interested in dancing.

Ema: (Whispers Back to Apollo) I'm surprised he even knows how to dance at all...

Wocky: Less Talking, More Dancing, 'Losas!!!

???????

Rainbow by Songbird Plays......

Trucy: (Cheers Triumphantly From Her Chair) WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Trucy Wright. is. The CHAMPION!!!! Woohoo! YEAH!!!

Wocky: Damn.... She's even louder than you are, Justice.

Apollo: ('Sigh') She is my sister after all...

Ema: Can't believe your own sister beats us in Mario Party....

Klavier: (Smiles Sheepishly) Come now, you guys. Fräulein Wright won fair and square. Might as well let her have her moment.

Ema: (Glares Lightly at Klavier) You're only saying that because you didn't have to play.

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly) I mean.... You're not entirely wrong on.

Trucy: 'Thena!

Athena: (Pops Up from the Kitchen) What's up?

Trucy: I Won!

Athena: ('GASPS') (Made her way to Trucy) Oh my God... Seriously?!

Trucy: (Excitedly Nodding Her Head) I'm the SUPERSTAR!!!

Athena: Holy Crap, Trucy!! (Gives Trucy a Big Hug) Congratulations!!

Trucy: (Giggles Softly) Thank you!

*Door Opens*

Maya: Hey, kiddos.

Pearl: Ummm.... What's going on here?

Athena: (Turns to Maya and Pearl) You guys, our girl Trucy just won a game of Mario Party!!

Maya: ('GASPS') NO WAY!!!

Pearl: (Smiles Excitedly) Is this really true?!!

Trucy: It's the Truth, Pearly! I, Trucy Wright, has become the SUPERSTAR!!!

Maya and Pearl excitedly make their way towards the duo and join in on the triumphant Group Hug while Squealing in Pure Joy.

Ema: (Getting Irritated by the Ladies' Squeals) God, this is worst than trying to dance to Apache.....

Wocky: (Glares at Ema) Hey! That song is a legend! It's deserve the respect it earns!!

Apollo: (Facepalms while Sighing) This can't get any worse than this......

Trucy: Oh, Polllllly!~

Apollo: (Slowly Turn his Head up to a Smirking Trucy) Yes, Trucy? What's wrong?

Trucy: Oh nothing~ I was just wondering if you still remember our deal or not.

Ema/Wocky: Deal?

Klavier: What is she talking about, Here Forehead?

Apollo: Uhh.... Nothing! It's nothing. Really. I mean.... (Chuckles Awkwardly) I don't even know what she's talking about here, ya know?

Athena: (Raised an Eyebrow Towards Apollo with a Playful Smirk on her Face) Pollo~ Come on now~ Don't try worming your way out of this one, 'hon~

Apollo: (Starts Sweating Bullets) Uh you know? (Got up from his Seat) Maybe it's time for us to get some snacks don'tcha-

Ema: (Grabs Apollo's Arm with a Smirk on her Face) Hold on there, Justice. I wanna hear what they're talking about here.

Wocky: Yeah! Us too!

Klavier: (Simply Nodded in Agreement)

Maya: Welllllllllll, you see.... Yesterday, all of us here made a bet to see which one of these two kiddos would win in Mario Party.

Ema Really now? And what, pray tell, did you guys beat on?

Pearl: (Giggles Softly) It was simple really. For you see, if Polly were to lose the game, he would get........

Trucy: A nighttime of Snuggles and Cuddles with his Loving Family!!!

Athena: Us!!

*Silence*

Wocky: (Burst Out Laughing) Pfft HAHAHAHA!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Ema: (Snickering) Holy Shit, Apollo Justice. What the hell did you gotten yourself into?

Apollo: (Blushes Bright Red) I don't know, okay?! I-I mean....I didn't know Trucy would actually win the game!!!

Klavier: (Smiles Sheepishly at his Friendly Rival) Maybe. But you do realize that anything can happen in Mario Party, right?

Apollo: (Facepalms while Groaning Once More) Now you tell me.....

Maya: ('Sigh') Polly, I don't even know why you're starting to get embarrssed now.

Trucy: (Pouts at her Big Brother) Yeah! You love our Cuddle Time, remember?!

Pearl: (Rapidly Nodded her Head while Pouting at Apollo as Well)

Wocky/Ema: Pftt AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly) Herr Forehead! I had no idea you were a fan of Cuddles.

Apollo: Y-Yeah? Well....I like it, okay?! It's nice! I-It's Comforting and Relaxing! P-Plus, I get to do it with the people I love! So honestly, it's technically a win-win for me!!! S-So, Suck it!!

Trucy/Maya/Pearl: (Starts Giggling at How Adorable Apollo is Being Right Now)

Ema: (Smirks at Apollo) Spoken like a true Cuddler, Justice!

Wocky: (Snickering) Uh-Huh!

Apollo: (Groans Once More in Annoyance)

Athena: (Pulls Apollo into a Loving Hug) Ignore them, 'hon. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Cuddling with the ones you love, Pollo. (Gives Apollo a Loving Kiiss on a Cheek) I promise~

Apollo: ('Sigh') Yeah.... I know. Just.... Trying not to let it bother me too much, you know? (Smiles Softly towards Trucy) But in all seriousness though, Congratulations on winning, Truce.

Ema: (Nodded While Smiling) Yeah.

Wocky: (Smiles Brightly) Nice one!

Klavier: You did a wonderful job winning , Fräulein Wright.

Trucy: (Smiles Brightly) Thanks, you guys. NOW LET THE CUDDLING COMMENCE!!!

After Game Night was over with, The Everything's Wright Family begins to watch a movie while forming a Cuddle Pile with one another. And even though he lost a game of Mario Party earlier today, Apollo is still admittedly enjoying every moment of it with the people he knows and love.

I watched eternals yesterday and here are words

people saying this is the worst MCU movies are wrong. age of ultron and civil war exist, and you would say these words to me?

I’d say as an MCU movie it’s probably just average. as far as scifi/fantasy magic nonsense movies go, it is also average. I have watched (and enjoyed) much worse movies tbh.

the bit where they said they sent the deviants to destroy predators so intelligent life can evolve; as if predators can’t evolve into intelligent life, which implies intelligent life evolves from something that need to adapt to survive predators but then you wouldn’t need to protect them from predators? Obviously it’s just “sent deviants to protect numbers, deviants went wrong, sent eternals to stop deviants” but those are not the words they said

Makkari’s deaf and they can feel vibrations (which is how some deaf ppl “listen” to music) except she can feel the specific words ppl are saying? and I’ve decided that’s just somehow because she’s a speedster. does that make sense? no. but there is so much dumb nonsense in marvel, and at least this involves a deaf character actually played by a deaf actress. that should not be the rarity it is, the bar is so low...

I really liked Makkari, even though she's like the least developed character, but she did have a hint of the usual speedster personality and I love that.

Sersi and Ikaris’ romance? Boring. It only exists so Ikaris has a reason to hesitate at the end but it’s just... pretty ppl looking at each other and being in love. they put a sex scene in this movie just to try and make this romance interesting. It did nothing.

Honestly Ikaris as a character is really boring, even the villain reveal doesn’t make him interesting... I mean the way he kills Ajak is so cruel and calculated? and if they’d pushed his character more in that direction maybe he’d be more interesting? but he’s gotta hesitate for love, so...

 the relationship between Thena and Gilgamesh was so sweet. from real early on I knew it was gonna end badly, but I’m genuinely sad about it. surprised Thena didn’t absolutely destroy Ikaris since he technically caused Gil’s death.

Kingo just bounces before the final conflict because he doesn’t agree, genuinely stays out of it, then shows up later for his fam. wild.

I’m still absolutely losing it over the fact that dane watched his girlfriend get pulled into space and was like “perhaps my family’s cursed sword will somehow help me with this situation.”

wait. I just realised Sersi probably told him about the celestials... is this dude immediately down to fight a god for his girlfriend?

anyway imagine being the other people in that park. you watch some random woman get abducted into space in broad daylight, and you’ve just gotta... carry on with your day. like what else can ya do?

[softquietsteadylove]

Heyyy I liked your Thenamesh Receptionist AU prompts so much! I have this prompt idea:

Gil is taking Thena to a pretty important business meeting (where a few of them taking their wives/ girlfriends with them) and there is this one guy who is single and very interested in Thena and he is flirting with her the whole time and practically undressing her with his eyes making her quite uncomfortable so Gil (being the protective boyfriend) loosing his patient even after Gil warned him 2 times, goes full gangster mode calm and very dangerous (wich even impressed Thena to see this side of him) and threatens him and punishes him

(you can Choose how he hurts the guy you know like a real gangster breaking a hand or worse or something xD)

"Gil, are you sure about this?" Thena asks as they walk into the room decorated for the party.

"I'm sure," he chuckles, happily letting his hand settle onto her waist to pull her closer to him--too close, even. She presses a hand against his chest as their legs come close to tangling together. He smiles at her, "this is one of very few occasions when we get to bring our partners out with us."

He had explained the purpose of it, too. Of course, it's generally advised not to let any potential business rivals - enemies - know who is most precious in your life. For as much as there is an unspoken rule about certain lines not to be crossed, there isn't exactly a glossary of who's on or off limits in this kind of business.

But this party is for that exactly. It's secure, it's arranged by only the most powerful in the industry. And to be powerful, requires a certain amount of trust, even by reluctant necessity. The party is open to spouses and girlfriends and partners because it's like presenting a real life 'do not touch' sign, as Gil says.

Thena looks around the room, beautifully decorated, opulent and teetering between classy and ostentatious. But she supposes that's the point of some of the richest people on this side of the Pacific getting together for a fun night.

Gil nuzzles his nose against her temple, pressing a kiss to her cheek. "You're the most beautiful thing in here by far."

"Gil," Thena murmurs, her eyes drifting down out of shyness.

"I mean it," he growls, and she wonders how long they'll last before he decides he can't wait anymore and voices his desire to take her on the balcony or something. "I don't like how they're looking at you."

"Maybe it's out of fear of you," she raises a brow at him, although she has to admit, she does look good. She felt that she had to, coming in on the arm of the most powerful - physically and fiscally - man in the room.

"I'd be scared to," he coos with a flirtatious edge to his tone. He takes her hand in his to guide them down the stairs and to retrieve a drink, "if I saw a walking Goddess pass by me."

Thena rests her head on his shoulder, pressing her blushed cheek against the cool of his pocket square.

Gil accepts two flutes of champagne for them, clinking them together before sliding hers into her hand. His eyes trace over the room again, although she catches the way they linger at the far corner.

For just a brief second, she's prepared to see some woman giving Gil the eyes, but it's some man. He's comparatively younger than most in the room, probably starting out in the business or a representative of his family's old money, or something. And he's staring right at them.

He's staring at her.

Thena furrows her brows slightly. Maybe she forgot what it was like to ogled so openly, but she presses closer to Gil, happily letting him wrap an arm around her waist in a show of pettiness. "Who is that?"

"I don't know," Gil grumbles, keeping his eye on the younger man as he drifts away from the window, still watching them. "But if he keeps looking at you like that, we're going to become quickly acquainted."

Thena does her best to ignore him. This is an important night for Gil, and she recognises some of the faces present as people who used to come into his office before she was fully aware of what he did for work. She chats lightly, and those who remember how long she's been with Gilgamesh show her due respect. Especially when he's there to loudly brag about his beautiful partner (and embarrass her while doing it).

Junior hovers around the edges of the room, still watching Thena like a hawk might watch young chicks in a coop.

Thena does her best to avoid his line of sight. If he were just some kid in a pub back home, she would have no trouble giving him a piece of her mind (and possibly a punch in the throat). But this is a very delicate line they're walking, tonight, and everyone in the room knows it.

Gil blinks as Thena burrows against his side again, all but hiding behind him. He wraps an arm around her, nodding to the young associate across the room. He asks who he is.

Apparently he's the oldest son of a very powerful family line, and he's just become head of the board of a few of their companies. He's a little fish swimming with sharks, apparently.

Gil excuses himself from his conversation, pulling Thena with him and shirking off his suit jacket. He lays it over her shoulders, ever pleased about how small she looks in comparison to it. "I'm gonna kill this kid."

"I don't think his family will react well to that," she murmurs.

"Like I care?" he growls, already on his way to confront him.

"Good evening," Junior greets in smooth english with a suave smile. His eyes are only on Thena. "I haven't had the pleasure of making your acquaintance."

"Kid," Gil barks at him freely, putting his hands in his pockets (and letting his elbow block some of the kid's view of Thena). "Didn't anyone tell you that this isn't for scoping out other people's wives?"

"Forgive me," he chuckles, still as smooth as butter--and still looking at Thena. He raises his glass to her, "I'm sure you won't blame me for noticing how beautiful she is."

"Consider this your second warning."

"Second?" Junior has the nerve to chuckle at that. "When was the first?"

"The moment you laid eyes on her," Gil snarls at him, guiding Thena away with him. He holds her hand, bringing her to a sitting area around the propane fire display. "You sit here, I'll get you another drink."

Thena nods, Gil holding both of her hands in his as long as he can before hurrying to the bar. He's looking around the room as he goes, obviously looking around for the little creep. Thena looks around as well.

"We meet again."

Thena stiffens. He's in the chair next to her. She meets his eyes, determined not to waver in his presence. "Was two seconds ago not enough for you?"

"I could never get enough of you," he asserts, his eyes boring into hers before running over what he can see of her past the sides of the chair. He leans against his own, "what are you doing with him?"

"Watch it," she snaps back instantly. If he's about to start slandering Gil right to her face then she might kill the little rich boy herself.

"You're obviously a beautiful woman," the kid schmoozes, grinning at her with perfect teeth. "I think I could do right by that."

"If you are suggesting that Gilgamesh doesn't-"

"I just think," Junior gives her a look that makes her want to crawl out of her skin and under a rock, "I could satisfy you far b-"

"Third warning."

Thena doesn't even blink as Gilgamesh hauls the kid out of the chair by the back of his jacket. She turns in her seat, watching as Gil tosses the kid against the the side table.

"What did I tell you about talking to her?"

Thena shivers. She doesn't know if she's ever heard him so angry (and she was once kidnapped and slapped in front of him).

"You think you can come over here," Gil leans down, taking the kid's fancy watch off his wrist, "say disgusting things to the woman I love-"

The kid screams as Gil snaps his wrist cleanly, his hand flopping limp after the break.

"And get away with it?" Gil finishes, grabbing him by the hair and jostling him just for effect. "Well?!"

"N-No, sir!"

Gil looks around the room, but people aren't even looking in their direction. No trouble will come from showing the little whelp what happens when he comes to a party by buying his invitation. "Now, because it's a fun night, I'm feeling generous."

The kid sniffles, tears and snot running down his face.

"I'm not gonna throw you out this window," Gil chuckles, gesturing to the floor to ceiling windows next to them with a view of the city. He drags the kid to the other side of the room, though. "I'm gonna throw you down the stairwell instead."

"N-No, no--please! Please, I'm sorry!"

Gil ignores his pleading, as does everyone else present. Thena sits patiently, waiting until Gil walks back to her, even having retrieved the drink he was getting before she was so rudely addressed.

He leans over her shoulder, handing her a rocks glass with the best Korean whiskey money can buy. "Gongjunim."

She smiles, letting him sit down and pull her onto his lap. The other chair is covered in the kid's tears and blood anyway. "I haven't seen you like that in a long time."

"Like it?" he grins up at her, and suddenly he's her adorable househusband again.

#Thenamesh Receptionist AU #Gil is not here for it #especially if he's going to say some rude shit #to his living Goddess #everyone else at the party like #I can't read suddenly #I do not see it #because none of them were stupid enough #to flirt with the woman at Gilgamesh's side #people still talk about the idiots who made the mistake of trying to hold that receptionist of his hostage #and that was before they were publically together #The very first oneshot of this AU #for anyone just finding it now

Mini Fanfic #394: Big Sis Maya (Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney)

Maya: (Happily Walk Alongside Apollo) Soooo you're ready to spend some quality time with your Big Sis Maya, Polly?

Apollo: (Rolled His Eyes) Do you always have to call yourself that?

Maya: Well, I'm four years older than you....(Smirks Teasingly) So yes. I have.

Apollo: Figures....I think I'm starting to see where Trucy gets her sass from....

Maya: Just be lucky I call myself that instead of "Your Senior".

Apollo: (Thought Long and Hard about That Wording....Only to Shutters on the thought) ....God, that would sound weird to hear you say that....

Maya: Right? I am wayyyyyy to young to be labeled as a Senior.

Apollo: (Gives Maya the "Really?" Look) You....do realize a Senior doesn't only means being old, right?

Maya: ('Scoffs') Of course I do, Polly. Who do you take me as?

Apollo: Mr. Wright's Former Assistant?

Maya: Uh correction: I'm Nick's First Lady Assistant/BBF, A Spirit Medium....Still in Training, Trucy's Mommy, Pearly's Favorite Cousin in the World, annnnnnnd....(Hugs Apollo's Arm) you and 'Thena's Proud Big Sis~

Apollo: (Rolled his Eyes While Smirking a Little) I'm..... somewhat honored.

Maya: Not the response I was expecting, but I'll let it be for now~ (Giggles Softly)

...................................................................

1:00pm at a Burger Joint.....

Maya: (Munching and Enjoying the Cheeseburger she Ordered)

Apollo: (Chuckles Lightly at the Spirit Medium) You really like burgers that much, huh?

Maya: Mmmhmm! They're sooooooo goooood!

Apollo: At least try and finish your mouthful before speaking?

Maya: Oh! (Swallows her Food Before Smiling and Blushing) Sorry.

???: Herr Forehead! Yoohoo!

Apollo: (Turns to see Ema, Klavier, and Wocky making their way to his and Maya's Table) Hey. You guys made it.

Wocky: (Smirks Cocky) Like we missed a day of lunchtime.

Ema: (Shrugged) Or anything involving breaks....

Klavier: (Noticed Maya Sitting Next to Apollo) And who might this lady sitting next you, my good friend?

Maya: (Turns to Apollo) Yeah, Polly. Who's your friends?

Apollo: (Turns to Three of his Friends) Guys, I like to introduce to Mr. Wright's former-

Maya: (Bump Apollo's Shoulder with Hers)

Apollo: ('Sigh') - I mean.....(Rolled his Eyes) Mr. Wright's Number One Assistant from way back and Spirit Medium, Maya Fey. (Turns to Maya) Maya, this is Klavier, Ema, and Wocky. My Acquaintances.

Ema: (Starts Smirking) And a few of his actual friends besides his boss, his little sister Magician, and a Fireball for his Girlfriend.

Apollo: Athena's not a Fireball, Ema...

Ema: (Shrugged) Could've fooled me.

Maya: (Smiles Brightly) Nice to meet you guys. Mind telling me what you all do besides being Polly's friends?

Klavier: (Smirks Proudly) Well, I, for one, am a Prosecutor by day and Rockstar by Night. As well as being Herr Forehead's only rival, of course. (Winks at Apollo)

Apollo: (Gives Klavier an Unconvinced Look) (Says no one.....)

Ema: I'm just a Simple, Proud Scientist.

Klavier: (Raised an Eyebrow at his Girlfriend to tell the truth) Ema.....

Ema: ('Sigh in Defeat') Fiiiiine.... I'm also a detective in training or whatever.....

Klavier: (Smiles Brightly) And the girlfriend of mine whom I'm proud of very much~ (Gives Ema a Kiss on the Cheek)

Ema: (Starts Blushing and Looking the Other Way) S-Stupid Fop........

Maya: Awww~ That's sweet~ (Turns to Wocky) And what about you, Wocky?

Wocky: I'm a son of a family of gangsters.

Maya: (Eyes Widened) Wait What?

Apollo: (Facepalms while Sighing) They're former gangsters, Maya. They have a Muffin Business now.

Wocky: (Smiles Prouder) Damn right. I wanted the Business to be called the "O.G. Crackers" but my old man insisted on calling it "O.G. Muffins" instead. It's a weak name, but at least the place is booming with profits.

Klavier: (Smirks Playfully) If you couldn't tell by now, our Friend Herr Wocky here is the "Little Brother" of our little group.

Wocky: (Glares at Klavier) Says who?!

Ema: Says us. You're clearly younger than out of all of us in this table.

Klavier: (Chuckles Lightly) Plus, you're so easy to make fun of.

Wocky: Like Hell I am!!

Apollo: (Rolled his Eyes) Really starting to prove his point right now....

Wocky: (Glares at Apollo) You wanna take this outside, Justice?!

Maya: (Giggles Softly at the Scene) I'm glad our Polly made some friends besides us of course.

Ema: (Chuckles Lightly) Yeah... Apollo's maybe a Dork, but he's our Dork.

Apollo: (Gives Ema the Look)

Ema: (Smirks at Apollo) Hey, you're not the only one in our group who's easy to make fun of.

Klavier: (Shrugged with a Smile) It's the truth.

Wocky: Ha!

................................................

1:30pm Outside of the Burger Joint......

Maya: (Happily Walking Next to Apollo) Your friends seems pretty fun to be with.

Apollo: They're unbearable to be around, but I loved them all the same. (Smiles a Little) I'm glad you liked them.

Maya: Me too. You guys kinda remind me of me and Nick's Group of Friends from back in the day.

Apollo: Were they also as crazy as ours?

Maya: Nah.....(Smirks Playfully) They're a lot worse.

............................................

1:35 p.m. at the Park's Bench.....

Apollo: Hey, Maya?

Maya: Hm?

Apollo: You said your sister was Mr. Wright's Mentor, right? What was she like?

Maya: (Smiles Brightly) She was only the Best Lawyer/Big Sister in the World! You'll love her, Polly. She was THAT amazing at what she do.........(Sighs Before Frowning Sadly) I missed her so much....

Apollo: (Frowns As Well) Mr. Wright told me what happened to her once I joined the agency.... I'm so sorry for your loss.

Maya: Thanks......On the bright side, at least she's in the better place now, right?.....

Apollo: Yeah......('Sigh') You know, I lost someone who was precious to me too.....

Maya: Really? Who?

Apollo: My best friend, Clay. He was an astronaut......(Looks Down on the group) Until he was murdered that day.....

Maya: ('Gasps') Oh my gosh.... Apollo, I'm so sorry.

Apollo: It's fine. Athena and I was able to find his murderer together and put him to justice afterwards.....so there's that at least.....('Sigh') Doesn't change the fact the I missed him though....

Maya: (Gently Grab Apollo's hand) Hey. I know it's sad to miss the ones you love, but it's what I said about sis, your friend is in a better place now. I'm sure he wouldn't want you to be all sad about his passing all day, right?

Apollo: Yeah.....(Chuckles Lightly) He would probably start lecturing me on being sad and moody as we speak. And on a brighter note, I have you, Athena, Truce, Pearls, Mr. Wright, and all of the other people in my life. So I'm not entirely alone.

Maya: (Happily Hugs Apollo) That's right! Life can be pretty hectic and cruel sometimes, but as long as we still have those in our life who loves us, I'm positive the both of us will be just fine.

Apollo: (Smiles Softy while Tears Falling out of his eyes) Yeah.....I....(Hugs Maya Back) Honestly Believe you're right on this, Maya. Thank you.

Maya: You're welcome, Polly. I'm always here for each and everyone of you guys, okay?

Apollo: I definitely know that now....

...................................

2:14 p.m. on the sidewalk to Everything Wright Inc. Office...........

Apollo: (Smiles Softly as he Walk Next to Maya) Not gonna lie, I honestly had a great time with you today, Maya.

Maya: (Smiles Brightly) Aww~ I had a great time with you too, Little Brother Polly~

Apollo: Seriously?!

Maya: Yes. (Smirks Playfully) I'm older than you, remember?~

Apollo: (Rolled his Eyes Once More) At least I'm taller than....

Maya: (Pouts at Apollo) Being taller doesn't matter when you're still younger than me?!

Apollo: (Smirks Playfully) Says the short lady next to me.

Maya: ('Hmph') Now I'm starting get where you get your sarcastic, smart mouth from....

Apollo: (Raised an Eyebrow) From who exactly?

Maya: Your boss.

Apollo: (Was About to say Something....but Decided to Agree what Maya is saying) Yeah.....I think I starting what you're saying here....(Smiles Softly) Still, you were pretty to hangout with.

Maya: (Smiles Brightly) You too, Polly.....Even if you are dork.....

Apollo: Hey!

Maya: .......Whom we all Love very much!~

Apollo: ('Sigh') Be lucky I consider you my sister figure at all.....

Maya: (Giggles Softly) I already am!~
