[Magi reread; special edition] Night 36.5: Night Flight & Night 37: Rememberance

So, fun fact, remember how in the previous chapter Morgiana just took Alibaba & left? Well, apparently Ohtaka made an extra, Night 36.5, which covers that flight.

Here it is.

Like, I'm already dealing with this dumb photo limit, guys, so I'll just stick to commenting it. Overall, it's just really neat, and worth reading. Also, I was right regading the WHY Morgiana sees Alibaba as her benefactor (spending that month in Qishan, using his wealth to help out her and all the other former slaves). It's really neat, honestly. The fact that she wants to thank him, and she wants to help him out now that he might need it, too.

There's just two small probems.

One of them is the fact that it's made into a joke - Alibaba hears none of it, because he's busy passig out, cuz she's moving too fast, and that really doesn't look good. Why is it that whenever Morgiana tries to be voulnerable, Alibaba doesn't hear it? There's gonna be at least one more moment like that in the future (god, I'm not there yet, and I'm already dreading these fucking boat chapters; last time I didn't finish my reread, because of them, ugh), and that doesn't promise a very good romantic relationship for the both of them. Again, Morgiana's an exception for Alibaba, but in a negative way.

And then there's the other problem with it - it's an extra. Remember how I've said that there were signs of Morgiana being eventually sidelined? This is one of them. Why is it an extra? Why not make it a part of the chapter? Why isn't it treated like something important? Why aren't Mogiana's feelings treated like something imporant? The writing's were on the wall, guys, they really were.

----Night 37----

He means Anime!Sinbad.

Thank you, Ja'far, for being the one guy to remember this.

Oh my fucking god. I was always thinking how weirdly Alibaba's lips were detailed for some reason. His mouth is open. That's all. They're not detailed. It's just open mouth. Oh my fucking god.

That realization aside, I am, once again, sad.

I want to say something funny or insightful, but I'm mostly just sad reading that. "Hehe, to think that there were so many things that I can do!" There are, but you wanted to see your best friend again. And he broke that promise you've made. Not because he wanted to, just because he feels trapped in the mess he's currently in. Man, I'm just sad.

Why is he so cute.

Ughm stop making me feel feelings.

AGH

COME ON

Of course you were. You decided this is your bestest friend ever several hours into meeting him, bro. Agh, this shit must hurt so badly.

Hm.

SHE JUST YEETED HIM IN

Talk about awkward, but also, gdi, Alibaba, you sure end up in this sort of position more often than you should.

Awkward.

They're trying ok.

You know, I blame neither of them here. Morgiana has a point, but I also get that it's difficult for Alibaba to talk about it, and he's under so much pressure already, to have just another person come here and tell him to hurry up and do something. Like, I do feel bad. But again, I get where Morgiana's impatience comes from.

Totally understandable.

And you're right. But you're missing a lot of context that you're about to get.

Still, her reaction is understandable, and, frankly, so is Alibaba's hesitance. Like I've said, I blame neither here. They're both in their own rights.

Like, for the past six months that's kind of what Alibaba's been dealing with, because of Cassim. No matter how much I love him, and I love their relationship in general, that most certainly was pretty abusive. We've already seen it. So to suddenly have another person yell and demand things from him...

Aladdin is (technically literally) a godsend. It honestly matters so much that he lets Alibaba actually cool down first. Also, worth mentioning that the conversation between Alibaba and Cassim happened, idk, half an hour earlier? It's probably still fresh in his mind.

He waited for him : (

I can't with him still similing. God.

Ugh, the fact that he DOESN'T JUDGE HIM. Everybody always judges him, or demands things from him, but here is Aladdin, who, in spite of everything, still believes in him. I just fucking can't, y'all.

You won't meet him until much much much later, you'll even manage to die in the meantime.

Existence is pain, I am suffering, this is just too fucking much, god, look, how Cassim is smiling, he's a baby, oh my god, I'm so fucking sad man, why was I born in this world, just to suffer-

Can I request Julius x Reader with the prompt "You're telling me you believe in love at first sight?" "I'm starting too." 🥺👉👈💕💕

hi anshi 💓 i’m so happy to finally write for julius!! i’m so sorry it took a while 😭 here’s a photo of soft smiling julius :3

Pairing: Julius x fem!reader

Prompt: “You’re telling me you believe in love at first sight?” “I’m starting too.”

Warnings: none

Julius is considered to be the busiest man in all of Clover Kingdom. Piles of paperwork await him every waking day of his life, and to top it all off, Marx is always there to nag him. Despite the demands of his work, there are sides of being Wizard King that he absolutely enjoys like witnessing awe-inspiring magic, and running into interesting people.

Julius has met a ton of people while wandering around the kingdom disguised as someone else. Out of all of them, you by far were his favorite.

You were tasked to manage and watch over your family’s food stall for the day. Your sister needed to rest after contracting a relatively mild illness. During your stall’s down time, a small old lady approached you.

“Hello there pretty dear, those egg tarts look scrumptious! I’ll buy a dozen,”

You happily boxed her order then handed it over. When she handed her payment you kindly refused.

“Oh no, it’s alright. It’s not everyday the Wizard King comes to visit our shop,”

The old lady froze and laughed nervously. “How did you— I mean, um you tell good jokes young lady!”

You laughed. “Well, if you must know I pay attention to my surroundings and my intuitions have never failed me,”

She tried to play cool. “Ah very helpful! Especially si—“

She was cut off by the loud ringing of her communication device. Before you could ask about it, she was already gone.

————

As you were packing and closing up, you sensed a familiar mana nearby. You turned around expecting to see the sweet old lady from a while ago but was confronted with no other than the Wizard King himself. He wore a brown cloak, its hood above his head to somewhat conceal his identity. He smiled sheepishly, one hand held up to wave at you. You bowed and paid your respect.

“What brings you here, Wizard King?” you smiled at him in amusement.

“Oh nothing really,” he scratched his head. “I was just strolling around when I remembered an old woman telling me she met a kind lady who owned one of the stalls in this street. And please, call me Julius.”

“And you knew that lady was me?”

He froze for moment, his gaze steady on his shoes as if it would suddenly jolt to life and whisper to him a good excuse.

“You do look like you fit the description. You look kind to me,”

You laughed and shook your head. Commoners didn’t have much going on in their lives except having to struggle and survive everyday. Having this pleasant conversion with Julius was a break from your tedious routine. You’d cherish it forever.

“Well I hope you enjoyed the egg tarts Julius,”

Julius laughed, his voice laced with hesitation. His brain frantically trying to conjure up another lame excuse but he knew that you could see right through him.

Folks have always said Julius was one of a kind. He was cheerful, down to earth, and kind to nobles and commoners alike. They were right of course, he really was something else, something you enjoyed having as company.

“I’ll be heading home now. You should get some rest too Julius. I know you had a long day being Wizard King and all,”

“Wait, I didn’t catch your name,”

“It’s Y/N,”

What a lovely name, Julius thought

“Okay Y/N, please let me accompany you home.”

Your eyes widened, not really expecting him to extend his help. “It’s okay, you don’t have to... I know you’re a busy man,”

He flashed one of his charming smiles. “I insist,”

You tucked a stray piece of hair behind your ear. “Alright but it’s a long way home,”

“My feet has taken me to faraway places when running away from Marx. I think I’ll manage,” he said with utmost pride and confidence.

The trek back to your village wasn’t as tiresome as you remembered it to be. Perhaps it was because you enjoyed listening to Julius rambling about his experiences while exploring the kingdom.

“How do you even manage to slip past Marx?” you asked.

“It depends,” he scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. “The easiest would be slipping out the window while he’s out eating lunch. Or wait for him to fall asleep on his desk,”

You laughed. “You really are something else,”

“How so?” he taunted in a playful manner.

“Just by hearsay. This is the first time I’ve seen you in the flesh you know.”

Julius hummed in response.

“Don’t worry, I’ve never heard a single negative thing going around about you.”

“That’s a relief,” He chuckled. “But I would like to know what you think about me.”

You smiled at him in amusement, quite perplexed at his sudden interest in how you saw him.

“This is the type of questions men usually ask in mixers,” you gave out a hearty laugh.

Heat rose up to his cheeks.

“Don’t you think it’s possible? Feeling this connection to a person just by looking at them?”

You thought for a while, listening to the crunch of the ground at each step you and Julius made.

“Wait, so you’re telling me you believe in love at first sight?”

The cool night breeze howled and whistled making you pull your cloak closer to your body as you await for a response from Julius.

“I guess I do. I mean it doesn’t have to be as deep as love. It could be a connection, perhaps a spark. What do you think?”

You were quiet again, trying to make sense of everything Julius had said so far. Julius on the other hand had his eyes on you. He looked at you with fondness as if you were lovers from your past lives.

“My mother believed in that,” you said, finally breaking the silence. “Destiny, fate, and some form of higher-order being governing over us. No matter how much you work against it, it still will find its way to you.”

You reached your front door and halted. You turned to face Julius, the “farewell” “thank you” and “be safe” already at the tip of your tongue. The moment you locked eyes with him, you felt it: the spark he was talking about. It was as if there exists a string with you on one end and him on the other. Now you’ve found your way to each other.

You were frozen in place, hypnotized by the softness of his features, and the glimmer of his eyes.

He too had been mesmerized by you and the way your hair swayed with the wind. In your eyes he saw it: a million possible futures with you. He felt the spark that morning he met you. He knew he couldn’t let you get away.

“I think... I think I’m starting to believe in it too,” you shyly proclaimed.

Maybe meeting him wasn’t an accident. Maybe it was the universe working to bring you two together.

He smiled, placing a his warm hand on your cheek.

“I have to go. We’ll see each other soon Y/N, I’ll make sure of that.”

You squeezed his hand. “You know where to find me,”

He placed a light kiss on your forehead then he was gone.
