Sweet Tooth
Corpse Husband x Asian Reader (Gender Neutral)
Warnings: Swearing
Genre: Tooth-rotting (😉) Fluff, Humor, RPF (Real Person Fic)
Summary: Corpse isn’t one to have a big preference or craving for sweet, sugary treats. In fact, he’d even go as far as to say he’s not at all a fan of candy. Well, much to his yet to be known delight, his partner Y/N takes that as a personal challenge.
Requested by Anon. Hi dear! Thank you so much for your lovely request! So sorry it’s taken me so long to write and post it but here it finally is and I hope you come across it and read it despite the long time that’s passed. If you do, I hope you enjoy it! Love, Vy ❤ 
“Hey guys! Welcome back to my channel!“ Y/N gives the camera a wave and blows it a quick kiss with their lips stretched in a delighted grin. They clap their hands together, turning to look at their guest who’s sitting in a chair on their right, his face covered with a sticker in the final cut of the video that their viewers have the opportunity of watching. “Ok, before we address the elephant in the room, I’m gonna ask the elephant himself not to move his head too much cause this is already gonna take a long time to edit, the last thing I need is to animate that sticker over your face to follow your movement.“
“Got it, babe.“ A deep voice replies obediently, earning an approving hum in response. However, just as Y/N’s about to turn to face the camera again, the mysterious - ok, not THAT mysterious - guest leans down and plants a kiss on their cheek.
“Brat!“ They squeal as they turn to glare at the person with narrowed eyes. He doesn’t appear bothered at all, chuckling as he wraps his arms around them in an attempt to soften them up. Sadly, his tries fall through as they proceed to ignore his affection instead of reciprocating it for the sake of being petty, “Everyone, this is my boyfriend Corpse.“
“Hello, I am hand.“ Corpse says, slowly waving his hand at the camera, “I shall be your entertainment tonight.“
“Oh this is no entertainment, I have a point to prove here.“ Y/N argues, breaking free from his arms before they bend down to pick up one of the two boxes that are resting by their feet. “You see, Corpse and I got in a bit of a scrap last night...“ they trail off, distracted by the contents of the box that’s now resting on their lap.
“I didn’t think me admitting to not liking sweet stuff would provoke such a dramatic reaction from Y/N but here we are.“ He interferes, lifting a finger in the air as though that will help him be heard better or would protect him in case his partner decided to go off at him.
Y/N just ignores his input yet again, continuing to address the camera, aka their audience, “So as you guys may or may not know, my mom’s Korean and my dad’s Japanese. Since they live in their respective countries for work purposes, that means I’m always one phone call - and a little bit of a wait - away from Korean and Japanese snacks at all times. I’m a person who constantly has a snack by their side so you can bet I make that phone call often. However, about a week ago, I made that call specifically for candy, the brands I was obsessed with as a kid. I don’t know what came over me but I think it was my fortuneteller sense kicking in because this mister over here decided to CASUALLY bring up the fact that he doesn’t like candy.” They turn to glare at him before continuing, “Anyways, so luckily, the package arrived only recently so I haven’t had the time to tear open all the candy and eat it all by myself as I was planning to. That being said, today I’ll be in introducing Corpse to the world of Japanese and Korean candy - a tighter circle of it, to be specific: the candy I grew up with.” They finally turn to Corpse again, the look on their face significantly different and a lot more pleasant compared to the one they gave him a bit ago. “So, how are you feeling, babe? Are you excited?”
Although the man’s face is blocked to the viewers, Y/N can still see him and they are pretty damn close to bursting out in a fit of laughter.  “I don’t know how to feel, actually. I know you have peculiar taste so it’s either gonna be a fun experience or I’m gonna very displeased with what you’ll have me try.“
Y/N rolls their eyes, “Trust me, you won’t be.” They put a reassuring hand on his shoulder, only half humoring his nervousness, “You’ll only be trying six on camera, but my parents sent a ton more which you’ll be able to try later, ok? It was really hard for me to pick only six favorites by I don’t need this video crossing the twenty minute mark.”
With a heavy-hearted sigh, Corpse finally brings himself to rip the band-aid off and get this adventure started. “Ok cool, but don’t surprise me with anything, please. Show me what you had in mind to have me try so I can, you know, prepare myself.”
Y/N, who was busy taking out packets of candy just a moment ago suddenly stops in their movements to give him a look of disbelief, “You know none of these are poisonous, right? Like, I’m not trying to kill you or anything. There’s no cyanide, no rat poison...”
His laughter cuts them off, wrapping his arm around them and pulling them closer again, “I’m messing with you, babe. What you got for me?” He says, placing a quick kiss to their temple while sneaking a peek at the packaging of the candies they’re holding right now.
Wiggling a little looser in his grip, they first show him the three items before turning them to the camera, “These are from my mom, she sent them from Korea and they are triggering a massive wave of nostalgia right now, not gonna lie.” They giggle, adjusting the brightness a little so the products can be seen properly, “Ok so first we have the long biscuit sticks that come in many flavors but I asked for my favorite - green tea flavored, that is. Then we have Pumpkin Monaca which are probably one of my most favorite sweet treats of all time. I think you’re gonna really like them. And lastly from Korea we have these butter waffles which I used to eat for breakfast when I was running late for school - which happened often.”
Corpse snorts, “That doesn’t surprise me.”
His remark is overlooked as Y/N continues, now taking out three packets from the other package, “Now we’re moving on to my dad’s box. He didn’t disappoint either: we have soda-flavored jelly beans; Black Thunder chocolate bars which you’re only gonna steal one of because the rest are MINE; and last but definitely not least we have some classic milk candies.” Setting those down as well, they turn to Corpse yet again, this time giving his a mischievous smile that’s promising him trouble, “So, Mr. Corpse Husband, after this introduction, are you prepared to have your entire opinion o sweet food changed? And more importantly, are you prepared to develop an addiction to these treats?”
Corpse nods confidently, “Oh, I’m very prepared, thank you. Let’s just get on with it.”
Needless to say: boy, was he not as prepared as he thought he was.
It goes without saying Y/N proved their point and took the win today.

just some thoughts without pretending to be the truth. i have a feeling like inn 2017-18 there was some weird (but not bad) tension between vmin. like jm was getting to know himself and tae was.. observing? idk. the way they glared at e/o and touched was sometimes too intimate and jm went totally shy. but know smth kinda changed and i wonder what is it now? bois are getting older? and some moments in LGO tae doesn't look at jm i guess. like it's him shy now. AMA live is where he looks past him
Okay before I get into it I’d like to ask three questions, not necessarily directed at the person who sent in this ask but rather more into a general discussion round:
what is the sort of behavioral pattern that a ship needs to fulfill in order for people to think “oh, they might be into each other” and “oh, I think X ship is in love”, that sort of thing? Is it loud, almost over the top behavior taken straight out of the older generation Idol handbook? Is it constant physical contact, constant affection through double-meaning dialogues?
if vmin were to exhibit such behavior, show us lots and lots of affectionate interactions on camera in nearly every piece of content we have, tell each other every chance they get that they love each other when the cameras are rolling, would that make them seem more real, or would that cheapen the ship and only lead people to say “vmin is fan service and there’s no chance they are actually real”?
if we agree on the hypothesis that vmin might by now be in a relationship of a few years, and they are both 25 years old, so grown men at the height of their careers, do you really think they would feel the need to showcase their relationship and legitimate romantic feelings to each other in front of the camera? Would they really want to allow millions of people (some with good attitudes and respect, many though without respect and only hate on their tongues) into their relationship?
These are the sort of things I think about and I’m always curious to know what others think and how things would be like if vmin were to behave like certain others, if those who doubt them would stop, or only see it as more of a reason to doubt.
In any case, to a certain extent I agree with the person who sent in this question, that yes vmin’s on camera behavior has changed, that while in 2017/18 it was more Jimin who was shy, it’s now Tae who appears shy more often. But, I don’t see that as bad or negative or sign of things not going well. At all. Since last year I feel like Tae’s attitude toward being an idol and everything that entails has changed a bit, as did his mentality especially after he went through burn out and generally had a hard time in the first few months of 2020. But that I think had nothing to do with Jimin. I think their relationship, however you’d define it, was fine for most of it, and I think after so many years of knowing each other (it’ll be nine this year) and being close friends and perhaps more, they know each other, inside and out, and know how to act in certain situations and depending on how the other is feeling.
But while there have certainly been instances in 2020 where Tae appeared shy when interacting with Jimin, there have also been moments where he didn’t. Take for instance their interview where they spoke about all their albums. Once they got to Wings and BS&T, Tae spoke about how he remembers Jimin’s charisma and how tempting he came across in it. Or the interview filmed in that little corner at a diner or something where Jimin was supposed to say which moment in Dynamite is his favorite where Tae touched his shoulder and Jimin basically completely blanked for a moment before smiling, giggling, and saying that his favorite part was Tae’s. Or that one interview where they sat next to each other talking about Dynamite and then all of a sudden they were holding hands for almost the rest of the interview. Or Tae cupping Jimin’s hand during a photoshoot which we saw in the behind the scenes glimpses from when they were filming the Baskin’ Robbins ads.
More below the cut since this kind of turned out a little longer than anticipated, I hope you don’t mind, anon:
I think a big deciding factor in how vmin behave with each other and how they come across on camera is where they are, as well as most certainly how they are feeling on that day. Tae said himself that on days where he’s feeling good, going to work and doing what they do is fun and he has no problem with it, yet when he’s not feeling well, it’s hard and he has to push himself more to do things. Besides, there is definitely a distinction between how vmin behave when they know a camera is watching, and when there isn’t one. It even shows in something as silly as, remember MOTS ON:E day 2 at the end of Hobi’s performance of EGO when the members join him? Vmin are dancing with each other, standing facing each other with Jimin doing some kind of almost like “I’m performing magic on you” hand gesture toward Tae BUT the second he realizes the cameras are on him, Jimin straightens up and pretends like that didn’t just happen and no one saw anything. Or their side hug on day 1 and silly dance during day 2 during Dionysus, that, too, was something not visible on the main cam, just a side one which they knew would not be available during the replay, so less people would see it. Or even that famous moment of them holding hands on the airport on Tae’s birthday in 2019 on the way to NYC after going up the stairs. They thought no one could see, so they held hands like it’s the most natural and normal thing for them to do because that’s just how they are.
On the other hand, a performance where I agree with the anon that sent the question is that during BangBangCon in June when they performed Friends. Admin 2 already back then told me how you could see how both of them, but especially Tae, were shy during that performance. Jimin in his March vlive talking about Friends said that Friends is a meaningful song for him and that it will be an emotional moment in and of itself if they one day get to perform it together on stage, and you could truly see that. They both seemed somewhat nervous, shy, and a little unsure in some of their movements, but it also showed a glimpse at their dynamic, how it was Jimin who hugged Tae from the back, who opened his hand to lace their fingers together and hold it, almost like that dynamic of “I’m large but he’s in charge”, you know? Why is that? Because not only must it have been meaningful to them to perform together in such a way, but also Friends is a deeply personal song to them, probably more than any of us truly understand. (song analysis by Admin 1) But, at the same time, Tae has no issue with being brave online, as in to go on Wevserse and proclaim that 95z is love, or like today, go and post seven pictures out of which three were of Jimin (4 if you also take into account the one with the mirrors) or to make Jimin’s birthday the password while playing games with ARMY. Perhaps the difference is that on Weverse, Tae is in total control of the situation, it’s a place where no editor will cut the scene or edit it, but whatever he’ll say and post, that will be exactly how it is. Of course people can misconstrue his words, but that’s something no one has any control over ever, and thus not the point.
The way I see it, sometimes they allow themselves to be silly together, to show each other affection and do more cute things, like Tae going to Jimin’s room in ITS and rolling over him, giggling and just being silly and then sitting next to him and caressing Jimin’s back since he was sick. Or Jimin waking up and limping outside to see where Tae is and ask if he’s all right that morning. But in the grand scheme of things BTS have so little privacy, so few things that are truly just theirs and not something they share with us, so they guard the small things precious to them from prying eyes and treasure it. And that’s the case for their relationship, regardless of how you want to see it, as well. It’s theirs, not ours. We’re just privileged enough to catch glimpses of it sometimes.
Like remember on the day they had their interview at KBS in the summer due to their BBH100 #1 where the TV station even showed their arrival? Remember how Tae and Jimin first shared their hand sanitizer, since Jimin used too much of it, and later on when they walked next to each other, first they looked at each other, like a silent question passing between them of “are we doing this?” and concluded that yes. Which was followed by them holding hands and Jimin even raising their hands together toward the camera with an almost a little challenging looking in his eyes, like he wanted to show that they belong together in such a public manner. Tae looked a little shy in that moment as well, but he agreed to do it anyway, so his shyness doesn’t necessarily have to be connected to Jimin, per se, but more the situation they are in and who’s watching them.
Also, a final thing that always fascinates me is how, when other members don’t show their affection in every piece of content we get, no one questions their love for each other, no one questions if X is real even if those two don’t interact all too much for a while, people still think they’re close and whatnot, as example. And yet when vmin don’t interact in every interview and every other piece of content we get, immediately the questions begin if they are still close, if they are still together, if they’ve had a fight or if they broke up. And if they do show affection, it’s immediately equated to “it’s just bros being bros”.
Ask yourself: is an interview about their new song or album really the right place for “ship” moments? Is every performance the right place for it? And what if on that particular day one or the other or both simply weren’t feeling well? Or what if they simply hugged or whatnot before the performance and thus felt no need for a repeat on stage? They are professionals, they are musicians, and if we do get absolutely adorable moments like Tae taking a piece of confetti out of Jimin’s hair during their duet moment in LGO, that’s a precious gift, and not something we should demand/expect seeing every time. Would those moments still feel as special as they do now if we got the every time?

Invitation to an Another World~Yoshitsune Route
Tumblr media
One sunny day---
Yuno: “Are you sure you wanna do this, Yoshitsune-sama?”
Yoshitsune(with full determination): “Don’t worry. If I can support you, it’s all joy for me.”
I was about to go and pick some medicinal herbs when Yoshitsune-sama offered to help me.
(I’m happy to go out with you, but I’m also going to make you do my work.)
When I gently looked at Yoshitsune-sama’s face, his clear amethyst eyes eagerly looked back at me.
Yoshitsune: “Besides...isn’t this kind of like going on a date?”
Yuno: “A date?”
Yoshitsune: “Whatever the business is, as long as I get to spend time with you, it doesn’t matter.”
(Oh, Yoshitsune-sama...)
His kind gestures which are always straightforward always make me shy.
Yuno(blushing): “Thank you very much, Yoshitsune-sama.”
When we were about to leave----
Kurama: “Where are you going?”
At the end of the hallway, we see Kurama.
Yuno: “We’re going to the nearby forest.”
Kurama: “....Forest, huh?”
Kurama frowned upon hearing the word 'forest'.
Kurama: “Yesterday, I heard a faint presence in the forest.”
Yoshitsune: “What kind of presence?”
Kurama: “It’s a sign of the realm of demons. There is a gateway to the demon world around there now.”
(A portal to demon world....?)
Kurama continued when he saw me confused.
Kurama: “Weak humans like you shouldn’t simply wander off....There may be demons coming to this world through the gateway.”
Then, Kurama looks at Yoshitsune-sama.
Kurama: “Don’t do anything that will make you stand out. Your soul is very delicious to them.”
Yoshitsune: “I will not..... but we are just going to pick some herbs. I don’t think I’ll stand out.”
Kurama: “Have you forgotten what happened before you met me? You were being hounded at every turn for your soul.”
(Speaking of which....)
I did learn that Yoshitsune-sama’s soul attracts other demons.
Kurama(glares cutely): “Tch, you’ll just go there and attract a lot of demons....then I’ll have to clean your mess, its annoying.”
Yoshitsune(surprised): “.......Kurama?”
Kurama clicked his tongue and took Yoshitsune-sama’s arm.----
(ah)
He dug his fingernails into Yoshitsune-sama’s skin as if to carve something into it.
Yoshitsune(surprised): “...........”
A red pattern emerges on Yoshitsune-sama’s arm.
(It looks like a character.)
Shortly after confirmation, the mysterious mark melts and disappeared into Yoshitsune-sama’s skin.
Yoshitsune: “Kurama, what was that?”
Kurama: “It’s a shield.”
He lightly looked at Yoshitsune-sama’s arm as if to check one last time and then quickly withdrew his hand.
Kurama: “If an unlikely event crashes you on the other side, this will protect you. Yoshitsune’s soul is great food for demons like us. This is just in case if he gets lost in the demon world. ....Yuno, give me your arms too.”
Yuno: “Yes.”
As ordered, I reflexively held out my arm.
(I don’t know about this, but I’m sure this won’t harm both me and Yoshitsune-sama.)
Kurama: “...........”
Kurama’s fingers carved something on my arm as he did before.
(.....Mm.)
With slight stinging pain, I felt my skin heat up for a moment.
The sensation soon subsided and, looking at the arm that had been removed, I could not see anything being done to it.
Kurama: “It lasts for one night. Pray at least you don’t have to use it.”
After watching the back of Kurama, who seemed to have lost interest in us, Yoshitsune-sama and I left the mansion.
.......................
While walking through the forest alongside Yoshitsune-sama, I started picking some medicinal herbs along the way.
Yuno: “The demon world....I wonder what it's like?”
Yoshitsune: “I don’t know much either, but Kurama travels back and forth from time to time-----”
Suddenly Yoshitsune-sama went silent.
(Hm?)
At the same time, I felt the air around me ice-cold and I tremble softly.
Yoshitsune: “....Yuno. Come here.”
Yoshitsune-sama with a serious complexion, made me stand behind him.
Yoshitsune: “I feel a presence of demons. Yuno, stay close to me.”
(demon!?)
Yuno: “Yes!”
The moment I stiffened.
???: “Gaaaah!”
A large phantom bird flew out of a tree. (Come on, Cybird! Make your next game about demons.)
Phantom bird: “Gaaah.”
Yoshitsune: “There you are.”
Immediately, Yoshitsune-sama draws his sword and aimed at the phantom bird. But it avoided it.
(It’s big and fast too!)
(I don’t think Yoshitsune-sama would be beaten in speed, but while protecting me....)
Distracted by the battle between Yoshitsune-sama and the phantom bird----
Phantom bird 2: “Gaaah!”
Another one pooped behind me.
(Ah!)
I tried avoiding it but my legs got tangled and I fell back.
Yuno: “.........eh?”
My body that was about to collapses fell into something that felt like a big hole.
Yoshitsune: “Yuno!”
He grabbed my arm and we both fell together----
(......! ah?)
As soon as we closed our eyes, we hugged each other while being consumed by an unearthly hole.
(What’s happening....?)
Despite being confused, I felt my feet stepping on solid ground and I opened my eyes.
Yuno: “.....eh?”
The surroundings around me changed completely.
Tumblr media
Yuno: "Is this?"
The sky is dark and there is thick fog in the area.
A number of blue floating lights which were reminiscent of human souls drifted around the area.
(What should I do?)
Yoshitsune-sama holds me by my shoulder as I tense up with fear.
Yoshitsune: "Are you okay?"
Yuno: "Yes, but somehow...."
Relieved by the familiar warmth, I looked up at Yoshitsune-sama.
Yuno: "Ah!"
Yoshitsune: ".....Yuno?"
Seeing my surprise, Yoshitsune tilts his head in wonder.
Yuno: "Yoshitsune-sama, what are you wearing?"
Yoshitsune: "Hm...?"
Tumblr media
When touched the white fluffy thing for the first time, Yoshitsune-sama also realized that he wasn't wearing his usual kimono. (IDK what's the furry thing called.)
Yoshitsune: "....I guess, this is what Kurama meant when he said 'shield.' Even you look different."
Yuno: "Hm?....Oh yeah."
When I looked down, my kimono also looked different.
(I didn't pay attention at all. Anyway...)
I took a sneak peek at Yoshitsune-sama.
The clothes, which I had never seen before, enhanced Yoshitsune-sama's already deceptively beautiful appearance. (No dear! He doesn't. His usual appearance is the best.)
(How beautiful....)
When I was secretly enjoying his hauntingly beautiful profile----
???: ".....Hey."
(Eh?)
I heard a voice from behind and I looked back.
Yuno: "Ah...!"
Yoshitsune: "............"
There was a big demon in the shape of a mountain wolf.
Yoshitsune: "Yuno, behind me."
Yuno: "Yes!"
I replied quickly and snuggled up to Yoshitsune-sama.
Demon wolf: ".............."
The demon wolf looked at us curiously.
Demon wolf: "I've never seen you two before. Where did you come from?"
Yoshitsune: "...From the deepest part of the mountains. It's a different place, unlike this one."
Demon wolf: "Oh yeah? Lost, perhaps?"
When Yoshitsune-sama remained silent, the demon wolf laughed in amusement.
Demon wolf: "Oh well, tonight, by all means, you're welcome to go down the mountains! If you go straight from here, there is a city. The flowers are in full bloom, I hope you and this young lady enjoy yourselves."
Yoshitsune: "Ah, I understand. .....Thank you."
Demon wolf: "The pleasure is all mine."
The demon wolf left waving his tail happily.
(That scared me!)
After the demon wolf was completely out of sight, I exhaled and relaxed.
Yuno: "Looks like he has mistaken us as demons in these costumes."
Yoshitsune: ".....Yeah, you're right."
Yoshitsune: "................"
Yoshitsune-ama carefully stared in the direction, the demon wolf left.
Yuno: "What's wrong?"
Yoshitsune: "Nothing....."
(It's rare, to see Yoshitsune slips upon his words.)
I quietly waited for Yoshitsune-sama, who looks somewhat curious.
Yoshitsune-sama opened his mouth slowly, though he showed signs of hesitation.
Yoshitsune: "I was thinking all those demon birds were belligerent. But....Demon wolf seemed friendly."
Yuno: "I agree."
(But....)
Yuno: "Is that it?"
I am brave enough to take a step into the heart of my beloved.
(I can't tell you exactly what Yoshitsune-sama wants right now....)
(It looked like he had swallowed his true feelings after hesitation.)
Yoshitsune(surprised): ".................."
Yoshitsune-sama seemed to have lost his words for a moment.
Yoshitsune: "Yuno."
He exhaled when he called my name and I turned to him.
Yoshitsune: "I have a request. I don't want to cause you any trouble but....if Yuno doesn't mind, may I have a little more time to look around this demon world?"
(Look around?)
Yuno: "You...don't want to find a way back?"
Yoshitsune: "Of course, finding the way home is the primary objective, but it's not the only one....I'm interested in seeing this world."
I was a little surprised to hear him say that.
(But I'm happy that Yoshitsune-sama, who always tends to put my wishes first, has expressed his wishes so strongly.)
(Honestly speaking, I'm a little worried about getting in trouble in the demon world....)
At the moment, my anxiety is outweighed by the joy of Yoshitsune-sama's little self-promotion to me.
Yuno: "Okay, let's go."
I took his hand and looked him firmly in the eye.
Yuno: "Let's look around together."
Yoshitsune(smiling): "Yuno......Thank you."
The dreamy smile on my beloved's face made my heart clench sweetly.
As the demon wolf said earlier, we walked straight down the mountain.
...........................
Yoshitsune: "This is...."
A strange city spread out in front of us, with the constant sound of flutes, similar to those of a festival float.
A few lanterns with no hanging brackets are floating in the air, their lights casting a reddish mist.
Tumblr media
In the midst of it all, the sound of joyful laughter comes and goes----
(This place is full of demons!)
Every time we passed a strange figure strutting about, a cold sweat broke out on my back.
Yoshitsune: "Are you okay? Yuno."
Yuno: "Y-Yeah, I'm fine."
In fact, I've been feeling a bit heavy for a while now.
(Maybe it's because I'm nervous. I don't want to worry Yoshitsune-sama, so I'll try not to worry too much.)
I decided to walk close to him so that we don't get separated.
Yoshitsune: "What is that?"
Yuno: "Huh? What....?"
We walked through the city as Yoshitsune-sama took the lead.
The road is lined with mysterious plants and frightening-looking wooden statues.
(Whatever it is, it's too suspicious.)
At a loss for words, I looked at Yoshitsune-sama, and our eyes met.
Yoshitsune: "There's a lot here that's new to me."
(...Oh)
Yoshitsune-sama's expression is as calm as usual, but I could sense a curiosity behind those dead expressions.
(I'm a little scared about this world, but as long as Yoshitsune-sama is enjoying....It's fine.)
The atmosphere was more lively than ever, which made me happy, too.
(....Hm?)
Suddenly I noticed something strange.
Yoshitsune-sama's figure, walking among the deformed ones, does not look out of place at all.
(It's as if this has been Yoshitsune-sama's place from the start, he's blending in.)
A shiver ran down my spine as I felt a sense of frustration that I did not understand, and I grasped Yoshitsune-sama's hand tightly.
Yoshitsune(surprised): "Yuno?"
When I look back up, Yoshitsune-sama's eyes are the same color as always.
(Ah.......)
Realizing that I had done something strange, I released his hand.
Yuno: "...No, nothing! I'm sorry for that."
Yoshitsune: "But..."
I was about to smile at him, when I wanted to say something, but then...
(Hm....?)
The weight of my body that I had been feeling for a while now increased dramatically and my knees relaxed.
Yoshitsune: "Yuno!"
Yoshitsune-sama quickly holds my body.
Yoshitsune: "What's the matter? If there's something you're not telling me, I want to know."
Yuno: "Actually, I've been feeling heavy for a while. I feel dizzy...."
Yoshitsune: "..........! It may be a result of the otherworldly energy."
(Miasma?)
Before I could ask him back, Yoshitsune-sama held me tightly by the shoulders.
Yoshitsune: "Yuno, come...... Let's find a place to rest."
As soon as we turn off the main street where the market is located, the demons had almost disappeared.
Yoshitsune: "It must be around here...."
Yoshitsune-sama notices one of the houses and puts his hand on the sliding door.
Yuno: "Yoshitsune-sama, if there is a demon inside...."
Yoshitsune: "It's all right, there's no sign of anything. No demons have been in or out for a long time, I suppose. And now it's time for you to get some rest."
We slipped into a small house.
(Ah.)
A long corridor stretched into the dark interior, so long that it was impossible to see the end.
Yuno: "Yoshitsune-sama, this is...."
Yoshitsune: "The inside space doesn't match the outside?"
Yoshitsune-sama muttered calmly while looking around.
Yuno: "...........! Yoshitsune-sama, the door...."
The door through which we had just entered had suddenly disappeared.
Yoshitsune: "----Well, as Kurama once said that in the demon world, things happen that cannot be explained by the logic of our world."
(What can not be explained by the logic of our world.)
A small shiver runs through my body as I realize once again that I am in an unknown place.
Yoshitsune: "Don't worry. I will protect you no matter what."
(....Ah)
Yoshitsune-sama puts an arm around my waist and pulls me closer.
The warmth of the arms that firmly supported my body was the most reliable.
Yuno: "Thank you, Yoshitsune-sama."
Yoshitsune: "You don't have to thank me. .....Now let's go."
Now that the door has disappeared, we have no choice but to go on.
I chuckled and walked carefully with Yoshitsune-sama down the corridor, which was even dimmer than outside.
(Besides.)
Yuno: "Is Yoshitsune-sama feeling all right?"
Yoshitsune: "What are you talking about?"
Yuno: "I'm recovering. But it seems like Yoshitsune-sama is not affected by the air of the demon world. "
Yoshitsune: "Ah, that."
Apparently, my words made him noticed himself.
Yoshitsune: "I think the air here is harmful to normal people, but it doesn't seem to have much effect on me. Rather........No, nothing." (This is because Yoshitsune’s soul is special because it’s in between the realm of humans and demons, or something like that. In short, he’s born more like a demon than a human. And that’s also the reason why the demons are after his soul. It’s one of a kind.)
(Again...)
The way he looked at me made my heart flutter.
(Why do I feel so anxious now?)
I pushed down the noise and kept walking down the long corridor.
Then Yoshitsune-sama stopped in front of a room.
Yoshitsune: "This room should do it. Let's go in."
....................
(.....Ah)
When I entered the room, I felt that my shoulders were a little lighter.
Yoshitsune: "Your complexion has improved a little."
Yuno: "Yes. I feel much better."
Yoshitsune(smiling): "That's good."
Yoshitsune-sama's face relaxes slightly and sighed relief.
Once I was feeling a bit better, my next concern was the room that we just rushed into.
(There doesn't seem to be anyone here.... but then why are the candles lit?)
The light of the candle makes me look at the alcove----
Yuno: "....Yoshitsune-sama!"
Yoshitsune-sama looks at where I'm pointing and raises his voice too.
Yoshitsune: "....That is."
There was a skull.
Yoshitsune: "................."
From the shape, it appears to be of a human.
(No way.... was there someone else other than us who got lost in the demon world....?)
The thought of it was so eerie and frightening that I lost my footing.
Yoshitsune-sama slowly approaches it while sheltering me behind his back.
Yoshitsune: "Maybe it belongs to a demon?"
Yuno: "Mm."
(Demon? Yeah, there might be a very low chance to be that too.)
The moment it heard our voice, the skull shakes and made a clattering sound.
Skull: "Here lies the figure of a demon."
After a moment of silence, a voice rang out.
Skull: "Face the trials that it puts forth, by looking into its eyes sockets. Overcome them and it will answer the questions you have. But if you lose, your bodies will turn into bone."
(....What do mean?)
Tumblr media
Despite being confused, we listen to the voice coming from the skull.
But no matter how long we waited, no more words came out.
Yoshitsune: “Apparently, if you win, they’ll answer any questions you have, but if you lose, they’ll take your life. So it’s a do or die situation.”
Yuno: “That’s...”
A chill runs down my spine as I witness a 'situation’ in which the sense of life itself is untenable.
Yoshitsune: “................”
Yoshitsune-sama on the other hand quietly looks at the skull.
(He doesn’t seem scared at all, rather he’s quite interested in it....)
I watched with trepidation as Yoshitsune-sama looked on with a somewhat dangerous air.
Yoshitsune: “..........”(Maybe he’s thinking of Yoritomo.)
Suddenly, with a casual gesture, Yoshitsune-sama’s hand reached out to the skull.
(eh!?)
Yuno: “Yo-Yoshitsune-sama!?”
Yoshitsune-sama takes the skull in his hand and observes it very carefully, though I tried to stop him.
Yoshitsune: “After all... this itself is not alive.”
(Ah.....)
The hair on my whole body stood up. Yoshitsune-sama’s expressionless face looks at me while holding the skull.
With his unusual costumes, they look out of this world.
(I don’t want to stay in the world another minute anymore.)
Yuno: “We are leaving, Yoshitsune-sama.”
Driven by impatience, I approached Yoshitsune.
Yuno: “I feeling fine. We have to find a way to get out of here. Let’s go----”
Yoshitsune: “If I can overcome the trials, this skull, it may teach us how to return to our own world.”
Yuno: “But.....”
Yoshitsune: “I know you’re worried and scared. ....But it’s also true that we don’t have much time.”
(...ah!)
I was surprised at the words.
(Oh yeah, Kurama’s spell lasts for one night.)
Yoshitsune: “Yuno.”
Yoshitsune gently takes my hand.
Yoshitsune: “I’ll be sure to win and bring you back home. ....So please believe me.”
Yuno: “Yoshitsune-sama.....”
(I’m happy with you and I always believe in you.)
(But what is this......anxiety I’ve been feeling since I came here.)
(If I stay here more, I feel like I’ll lose Yoshitsune-sama...)
I raised my face and looked at Yoshitsune-sama.
Yoshitsune: “....Yuno?”
His clear voice calling my name made me feel ready.
Yuno: “I understand. I’ll leave my life to Yoshitsune-sama.”
I hold his hand back firmly.
Yuno: “But I will face this trial along with you.”
(No matter what the outcome is, I’ll never leave Yoshitsune-sama until the end.)
Yoshitsune(smiling): “Yuno..... You’re still a brave one.”
Yoshitsune’s sugary atmosphere suddenly eases me.
Yoshitsune(smiling): “....Let’s complete this together.”
Yuno: “Yes!”
(With this person by my side, I’m not afraid of anything.)
While holding hands, we both looked into the empty sockets of the skull.
Then the air around us started getting distorted----
We found ourselves standing in a strange space.
Yuno: “Where are we...?”
We were transported into a black void, and there is no sign of the skull we saw earlier.
Yoshitsune: “It looks like it’s about to start.”
Just then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a familiar white cloth dancing.
(Eh..)
We looked up and there standing in front of us, was----
???: “............”
It was someone, dressed in the familiar Yoshitsune costume of this world.
Yoshitsune: “You are....?”
Shanao: “My name is Shanao. I’m the other you. Now let the trial begin. When I confront myself, will you be able to hold on to your own? Answer me.”
Premium END
Honestly speaking, when I first saw these three in new costumes, I thought they were awkward. Maybe because I got used to seeing them in their usual outfits which is already gorgeous. When heard that there is going to be a story event with new costumes, my initial thoughts maybe they were going to do a story event with modern settings and we’ll get to see them in modern outfits. But I like how they didn’t went for that and decided to do something different. 
After playing this event, I have to say that I really loved it. Translating this was tough, but I loved doing it anyway. Even the awkward thoughts about their costumes is now gone except for Yoshitsune. Yoichi and Shigehira looks good now, but I don’t like Yoshitsune’s, maybe if he didn’t have that white furry thing then it might have been better.
Anyway, I really loved this event and I really wish if they made this same event for other characters as well.

ok i hate what they did at the end of sçk this ep. not bc i’m worried about edser, but bc it was just so contradictory to what happened earlier in the episode. when all the guys kept coming over one by one, he kept getting mad bc he thought eda was coming over. and then when new girl shows up when he’s waiting for eda again, he invites her in for food, when he doesn’t even eat pizza, when she was just gonna leave. i know he’s trying to be a nicer person, and i know they wanted to create unnecessary drama but yeah that just didn’t make sense. edser needs to have a long talk about their doubts and insecurities if they wanna build a strong relationship but i doubt they’ll write that it, idk why they won’t let edser have a serious talk without there being angst involved. it’s like they have to do lightheaded or hardcore angst, nothing in between, like nothing with them reassuring each other that there’s no need to be worried and how do we move forward. they don’t communicate at all. literally all of their problems have been from lack of communication. anyway i know i’m thinking too hard since this is a dizi but that last scene really bothered me. it was beyond out of character for him. i still love watching but they keep beating around the bush on edser being fully back together and it’s annoying like eda needs to make a decision and he needs to not assume she’d be fine with him hanging out with some random girl who just showed up bc he didn’t look worried at all when he saw her there.
I’ve been seeing a lot of people saying that what he did was out of character, which I mean it isn’t unfounded. Like you said when the guys kept coming over he was getting more and more frustrated, but when Balca came, he was perfectly fine. I think though that dizis tend to prioritize drama for the sake of prolonging a storyline over doing something that’s true to the character, so unfortunately I think it’s just one of those things that just comes with the territory and you can’t expect much more. While I was bothered by the ending due to it’s general cliche-ness and it did make me wonder (and worry) about just how much more cliche this whole Balca storyline will be, I wasn’t that troubled by Serkan acting out of character. I think I just rationalized it as, oh this is his new employee, they’re going to be working closely in the future so of course he wants to build a good relationship with her, and plus he is working on becoming a better person so I guess this makes sense. (Ama o kadar samimi hareketler gerek var mıydı? Hayır. Tabii ki hayır.)
But about your wishes for Edser and better communication, yeah I wouldn’t expect much on that front either. I feel like that is such a common thing in these romcom dizis where the couple would have these serious, valid concerns that aren’t necessarily related to whatever’s going on in the storyline and more so about the crux of their relationship, the core and foundation that it’s built on, and they never really get addressed unless it’s in some big, angsty blowout, if that. 
I’m not going to jump to any quick, rash judgements however based off of the end scene alone, because who knows what could happen when they pick back up in 23, who knows what their reactions will be like. The only thing that is really keeping me calm right now is that Eda seems to be trying to prove to Serkan that Balca is interested in him. Which makes me think that they at least talk about what happened and that Serkan is able to prove his commitment to her. Whatever explanation he gives for why Balca’s at his house, Eda will believe or at the very least will believe in him. It seems to me that the whole thing will not be about her not trusting Serkan, but about her not trusting Balca, so that makes me feel a bit better about their relationship status.

hello!! i just wanna say that ur writing is absolutely incredible and honestly one of the best writers I've ever seen! Can you share any writers that you enjoy reading too? its hard finding writers that write stories lips you do :(( anyways i love your stories and i hope this motivates you more?? idk if this is motivating enough haha i just love your writing and i wanna see more TT ILY
Oh shoot, oh heck. It’s so late but I’ll try to put together a decent amount of list for ya! It’s a little difficult because I can get competitive and obscenely jealous of other writers’ skill so I do have the habit of not drinking from the same creek I dip my toes into, (idk if that’s an idiom or if it’s close enough to an idiom that already exists but it’s here now and you can’t stop it.) but I am trying to get over that because comparing your work is silly and it’s really only hinderance in the end.
okay so a LIST (in no particular order) (and these are for people who I am pretty certain are still active with writing for BNHA? If I’m wrong, lol I’m sorry? they’ve got content nonetheless!)
@bnhascribbles woof woof. This writer right here is relentless. She makes me!! FEEL things whether is be a disgusting amount of tooth rotting fluff or utter shock and heartbreak. Scribbles has the ability to shatter my world in one simple scene since she’s SO GREAT at conveying emotion, and I’m going to physically fight her someday. I should mention that when she writes angst, there’s a certain amount of finality to those scenarios, and it’s like offputting in a way that can make you become addicted to the hurt.
@perpetual-bed-head: HELLO! Reading her stuff is like taking a vacation. Instead of laying in bed suffering, I’m suddenly very much with my best boy and he’s making me feel good, and special, and cute! Cece puts a lot of work into her work and when lever I get the privilege of reading it, I’m always awestruck. There’s also always an odd amount of symbolism that goes into her work (let’s say, being a little too intimate with Midoriya, it’s hinted that at least the concept of All Might present as well, and that just has me ROFLing [do the kids still use ROFL? Idk. I’m not going to continue it but for Cece, it’s important]) her stuff is hot and cute at the same time which is muy importanté!
@bakugou-tm I think I’m always going to be a fool in love with this writer. Like no joke, if my love for Bakugou is ever straying, I’d really just have to go back to her page and be all “oh that’s right, he’s HOT!” She really has characterization down and that’s!!! So important! Seriously reading her work is exactly like a real life Bakugou dating sim and that really should be enough to get you there, bro.
@quirkfics just seriously incredible work and there’s an endless amount of content on there ama! This writer is VERY good a writing a scene with just the right amount of detail even if it’s just a shorter piece and every time they do, I’m BLOWN away! They also write NSFW work for gender neutral readers which is seriously admirable (I don’t know if some of the other artists ive mentioned do it do not, I just know that with quirkfics, it sticks out.)
@bluesimba AHHHH???!!!?? Ahhhhh???? Listen, okay, I don’t know if I have the right words to illustrate just how great their work is?? Detail is obviously important to me so when it comes to bluesimba’s writing it’s like??? God, the simplest thing (sitting at a table with Hawks while he tells you that he bought twitter simply because it’s a bird themed website for example) while using the right amount of elemental design seriously has me soft. I discovered them when I was free ling down and a friend sent me a few of their one shots to cheer me up and boy did that get the job done!!
@dee-madwriter ooooof. If you like unconventional scenarios as much as I do, you should definitely head to Dee’s page. Dee is a really great outside-of-the-box writer, and by that I mean, in her writing I see ideas that I’ve never even thought of before which is cool in itself and then adding that certain spicy element in there? Muy bien. Dee also writes for multiple fandoms (again, I’m not sure if the other artists ive mentioned do as well, but you know) so it’s nice to see that certain amount of flare in other mediums as well!
I’m gonna go to sleep and finish this in the morning
It’s the morning
@weebsinstash more unconditional scenarios but goodness gracious some of her stuff is exactly my cup of tea. Weeb writes for so many characters too and she has me eyeballing people I probably wouldn’t have to begin with if not for her.
@lady-bakuhoe honestly, I don’t even know what to say. She’s doing kinktober and as far as I know, they gotten most of not all days down so far, so you literally just gotta pop onto her page and see the magnificence for what it is, dood. It’s GOOD!
Kerrrrrffff I’m sorry if this is a short list. I know I’m a fan of other writers but Idk how active some of them are and I don’t?? Talk to very many people on here?? I’m a hermit crab... HIZZAHT!

9.3 NAMACISSI
Oh God I LOVED this clip. I loved it so much. I could die for this clip. 
A few scattered thoughts I had while watching it (they might not be in chronological order cause I’m at work and I can’t do my usual watch-stop-write-rewatch thing, sorry.)
So without further ado:
Allow me to be bitter here for a second: this should have happened yesterday. If Martino wasn’t so infuriatingly stubborn in his ways, if his first instinct wasn’t to close in on himself despite seeing how good it was when he opened up to his friends last time, how much support he got, how much lighter he felt, this would have been yesterday and neither us nor him would have suffered as much. That being said of course I love Marti as he is, wouldn’t trade him for the world, so I accept his flaws and the pain they bring.
The boys going to the bathroom together, in a group. Discussing the love life of one of them in the school bathroom. Washing their hands together (actually, unfortunately it is noteworthy that they was their hands at all bc men are often disgusting). Another typically feminine trope subverted. (The only thing missing was one of them fixing their hair, but it wouldn’t have fit the feel of the scene, I think.)  Toxic masculinity thank u, next; LudoBesse and Skam Italia writers thank you, now more.
How blue is that scene? The bathroom is of course very blue, the tiles, the floor. The light is cold. Marti is wearing a blue jumper, Giovanni a blue shirt, Elia a blue track top.
(Luchino is wearing warm brown *insert “coincidence? I think not” gif here*)
We cannot be sure this is the same bathroom where 5.4 Pausa took place, but it is very clear that LudoBesse thinks not-so-positive conversations regarding mental health need to be had in bathrooms.
I couldn’t find any particular significance in the order the boys came out of the stalls, but I’m sure I’m gonna read some really interesting theories from you guys soon. Maybe worst to best at reading Marti? worst to best at giving advice?
Luca, knowing the pain of being half-naked in the cold for several hours from the previous weekend is Very Worried about Niccolò, his saviour from the ice prison/cabin,  running around naked in the cold
Giovanni and the others watching Martino struggle with the soap dispenser/faucet thing and Gio stepping in to help him and direct him elsewhere just like he does in the conversation when he points out Martino shouldn’t trust the Internet about medical stuff
Giovanni starting his line with “Comunque”. It’s something Giovanni did in 6.5 Effettivamente (and here’s a lovely post by @zkainaat about it) and I’m starting to feel things about it. We talked a fair bit about “Martinese” these last few days and we all agree that nobody speaks it better than Giovanni, we also know Giovanni has a Martino voice and this “comunque” thing also strikes me as something that’s Marti-and-Gio’s, something Giovanni does for Martino to put him at ease or something he picked up from him. 
But, even more interestingly, where does this “comunque” also crop up? In our beloved 8.1 Patatine e marmellata, during “Buon viaggio”, of course, with Niccolò singing “Amore mio, comunque vada”. Coincidence? Nico stumbling on a bit of Martinese by chance? Another thing LudoBesse & co. will exploit to make us all suffer? Just me being too obsessed?
Giovanni gives the best advice. I need a Giovanni for myself and I can only aspire to reach the same level of wisdom as Giovanni Mago dell’Amore Garau.
Apparently, it’s a well know fact at liceo Kennedy that the school psychologist is obsessed with celery and I love that. He’s the closest thing we have to the representation of the actual quirky, weird af professors that usually roam the corridors of every Italian high school, but especially (imho) of liceo classico.
So they go to see the psycologist, dr. Roberto Spera. Someone with an actual degree. Thank God. (From what I read online, in Skam og Isak only speaks to Magnus whose mum is bipolar, and that’s cute but it also seems too much of a coincidence. IDK I haven’t seen the og so I can’t tell if it felt realistic, but I definitely like that in Skam Italia the boysquad went to a professional.)
Oh, dr. Spera how I missed you.
Giovanni Garau and Roberto Spera doing the Lord’s work and spreading the Very Important Message that you should not a) believe everything that’s online; b) only look up things online without talking to experts or reading their book/articles/papers etc.; c) self diagnose- or diagnose someone else on the basis of something you read on Wikipedia or WebMD
NAMACISSI. Guys, we knew it was something significant! *pats the whole fandom on the back*
“Is it Buddhist?” no, honey, that’s namastè
Dr. Spera’s desk is blue, he’s wearing blue, but the walls are yellowish and the light is much warmer here than in the bathroom.
Martino tells him everything this time. About Niccolò, about the off-again, on-again they went through, about finally getting together and being finally happy until last Friday. 
I wonder how amny encouraging looks and nods Giovanni had to give him to make Marti spill all the tea.
I wonder how many times the boys cut in and how many times their eyes widened and their ears perked up because Martino said something they hadn’t heard about before.
Robert Spera, patron saint of debunking false information and asking the right questions. 
And the KING OF SHADE. He disses Trump and reads Maddalena for filth while also shading Martino (”Tre mesi...UNA LUMINARE!”). We stan.
 I nearly fell over laughing when he didn’t know what blocking meant and I love Luca for explaining and promising to teach him, I bet poor Roberto has given out his number to subscribe to something and now there are so many telemarketers calling and messaging him trying to sell him the weirdest things.
Bless Luchino. As I mentioned before, I knew what was going to happen in this clip and I loved the things they changed but I also lovelovelove that Luca still got to tell Marti not to believe Maddalena. He’s naive, he has acted plain dumb, he has been ignorant to the point of offense, he is not the most empatically aware, so it’s much more significant when he’s the one to point things out.
And of course I love the wording and I feel for the translators who have to deal with it. And I love that dr. Spera uses the same words (what else could we expect from the man who asked “E se il copilota è andato a pisciare?”)
Luca casually dropping “Ti ama” (He loves you) and “È innamorato di te” (He’s in love with you), nonchalantly, like he’s talking about the weather and my heart doing high kicks and backflips. Can’t even begin to think what Marti’s was doing.
the boysquad Can’t Deal™ with Martino, Gio facepalms, Elia looks away with the far away expression of a soldier who just came back home, Luchino goes for the classic “Ma che cazzo stai a di’?” (WTF are you saying?) hand gesture
dr Spera looks on, approving
“Te l’ho già detto che ti devi fidare degli amici” MARTINO GUARDAMI MARTINOOOOO
dr Spera slips up and talks about the last time he and Marti talked, but he notices his mistake right away and fixes it changing the subject (THAT HOW YOU AVOID  BLOWING A COVER, DO YOU HEAR ME 3.4!NICCOLÒ?)
I love that Roberto Spera has one (1) “experiment” that’s so versatile he can use it for all occasions
Luchino not being able to physically support Martino by himself during the experiment though (I desperately tried not to read into this, because I want it to be a thing done for shits and giggles, I want it to be just fun, but my mind keeps replaying “so are you like..transgender?” and “whe two gay men have sex one is the man and the other one is the woman?” and, yeah, on his own Luchino would not be able to support Martino in the metaphorical sense either)
anyways, I love i Contrabbandieri for going to the psychologist’s office all together, both to support Marti and because they’ve already adopted his boyfriend Niccolò and he’s not feeling well, which makes Martino not feel well either and they want to know why-how-when-how can we help
I wonder how Gio will feel when he’ll inevitably get out of Martino that he went to talk to dr. Spera before coming out to him, before talking to him. Will he be hurt that his friend didn’t feel like he could talk to him? Will he feel guilty? 
(Let’s not forget that afaik the boysquad still doesn’t know about Filippo. How will they all, especially Giovanni, take the fact that Martino told basically a stranger about Nico before telling them? I need fic explorations of the dynamics that all these characters will create)
Anyways, once again Martino exits dr. Spera’s office with an important life lesson, a new outlook on life and hope, as well as bruises from falling on his ass
(Giovanni and Elia in that position, laughing at their friend are giving me ~feelings~ I don’t know why)
Well, I guess that’s it. My inbox is open if there’s anything you want to discuss!
