Hi! I saw your requests were open and was wondering if you could do one with the slashers;
Their s/o is typically sweet and quiet but is very protective and hot headed when it comes to them. Like if someone insults the slasher they literally have to hold their s/o back from attacking the person.
(With Tommy Hewitt, Jason, the Sinclair Brothers and whoever else you want to add)
Pretty please and thank you. And happy Halloween 🦇
Hello darling, I guess it's time to be spooky in June! (Ok, I'm sorry it took me so long to reply to your request, Happy Halloween to you too).
I really hope you will enjoy this <3
DON'T TOUCH MY BOY
Gender neutral reader with no physical description.
Warnings: no proof reading, mention of killing, violence and blood, mention of sexual desire for Vincent, one or two strong language.
Thomas Hewitt
Detailed headcanons already written for him here
Jason Voorhees
From the start, you had been very protective of Jason, mostly because of his past and everything that happened to him (even if he was more than capable of taking care of himself).
When you arrived at Crystal Lake for the first time, it was because you heard kids were camping there and it was driving you crazy.
You didn’t know Jason at that time, but you wanted people to leave this place alone.
Jason watched you from far away, his head tilted to the side as you were yelling at all those people, looking crazy to them, but so attractive to him.
You were ready to start a physical fight with them, but they were a lot more than you. So after the first slap you threw at one of them, three boys were ready to “teach you a lesson”.
You knew you were in a bad posture but you were eager to kick some ass to protect yourself and to protect this place. You were too angry to be afraid of them. Some girls tried to stop the fight, but the boys didn’t want to let this go.
Jason wanted to see how things were going to go. But he saw in how much danger you were, so he decided it was the best time to intervene.
He did save you.
And he killed all the kids who were camping at Crystal Lake. And you just watched, completely taken aback by what just happened.
You thought you really needed to go too.
But he didn’t kill you then. And he didn’t let you go either.
He liked you here.
You reminded him of his mother too.
She was just like you, smart and ready to hurt whoever upset Jason. You were very protective of him, even if you knew nothing could happen to him.
He knew that his mother, wherever she was, was liking you too and she would approve of your relationship very much.
Bo Sinclair
You had always known Bo, since kindergarten actually. 
And you had always loved each other with everything you had. There was a natural bond between the two of you, and no one could stop you from being glued to his side.
You both were always screaming and crying when you were forced apart.
And as you grew up, you both started to be very protective of one another.
And because you were two hot heated kids, you were always fighting and coming back home covered in bruises.
But it was worth it. You loved each other with fierce passion.
As you grew up, your relationship changed to be more of a romantic and sexual one, but it didn’t change about one thing: you were both ready to yell and to kill whoever said something bad about the other one.
And it was still the case with the tourists.
When you were around Bo, the man was always a little bit more tense but only because he was ready to protect you and to react if someone said something or made a move towards you. He often had his arm wrapped around you, as you cutely snuggled against him.
But at the second someone started being rude to him because he didn’t have the right mechanic pieces for their vehicles, oh boy, even Bo couldn’t stop you from slaughtering them.
Don’t get him wrong, he really enjoyed the sight of you covered in blood, but it always worried him a little that something could happen to you.
“How somethin’ so cute like ya, can be so angry” he liked to tease and you always giggled at that.
“That’s because I love ya, silly. Could burn the whole world for ya to keep ya safe and happy” you replied, and the feeling was more than mutual.
Vincent Sinclair
You used to be a tourist coming by Ambrose, but you were so gentle, soft and quiet that the twins weren’t too keen on killing you.
Sometimes, they spared some people, especially when it didn’t seem like they had a very nice car or a lot of money, and when they had been nice to Lester.
Lester hadn’t shut up about how sweet you had been to him. It made his day, because it wasn’t that often.
But it was nothing compared to when you met Vincent.
You fell in love with him right away and you were very impressed by his sculptures, complimenting him nonstop when you discovered he was the artist.
No need to say that the big man was very flustered by such positive attention.
That was how you got adopted by the Sinclairs and that you stayed by their side. You learnt to know them and to love them, and vice versa.
They definitely learnt a new side of your personality the day you were in the House of Wax when some tourists came visiting it as well. You were observing them from far away, until you heard them saying awful things about Vincent’s arts.
You walked to them, and started to violently argue about that. You couldn’t stand anyone speaking that way about Vincent or his art or his talent.
Vincent was watching you from far away too. His plan was to grab you and show you the way to his basement for you to go there, but now he was just staring at you, getting all hot and bothered by such a display of pure rage. 
It was the first time he was seeing you that angry.
You often argued with Bo when he was making a rude comment about his twin, but it wasn’t like that. 
You were clearly ready to hurt those people. Maybe even to kill them.
Which you did, and without Vincent’s help. He was so proud of you.
Lester Sinclair
You met Lester on the roads.
You liked to travel around and to drive where no one seemed to live anymore. You were both very surprised to see one another on the road, so you started to chat and you got along very well.
At first you were just meeting up with him, but after a little while you agreed to follow him in his truck. You were looking for roadkills with him.
You noticed that Lester was talking a lot to strangers, especially to guide them toward Ambrose and then he was always sending a little message to his brothers when that was happening.
You were fully aware that you never saw the lost tourists after they went to Ambrose, but you didn’t think much of it. You probably missed them when they were leaving.
You didn’t really care, even though you were sometimes a little bit curious about it.
But when you were asking questions, it was clearly putting Lester uneasy, so you stopped doing so.
What was driving you crazy though, was when Lester was helping someone and that they were rude to him in thanks.
More than once, the lost tourists talked very nastily to Lester and were judging him.
The more time you spent with Lester and the more protective you felt towards him.
It was more often than you would like it that you were asking the tourists to be nicer or to shut the fuck up.
And you weren’t doing that in a polite way, almost yelling at them, a little bit threatening too.
The first time Bo saw you, you were showing a guy out of Lester’s truck and clearly ready to kick his ass for having rudely commented on Lester. 
Bo instantly liked you and Lester didn’t even have to convince his big brother to not kill you.

Words
Pairing: Eijiro Kirishima X Deaf Reader (GN)
Summary: Kirishima always wondered why he had no words on his wrist, but when he meets you it all makes sense
AU: Soulmate AU - Soulmates have tattoos of the first words their soulmates say to them
Wordcount: ~1430
Warnings: Self consciousness (inferiority complex)
Requested by: Me stressing about finals
Notes: As a hearing person, please let me know if I offend anyone with the way I've written the reader (or if you have any constructive criticism)

Tumblr media
Kirishima was self-conscious about many things. His looks, his personality, his quirk. And the fact that he had no soulmate.
The first words a person’s soulmate said to them would be written as a tattoo-like mark on the inside of their wrist. Everyone found their soulmate at some point in their life, whether intentionally or not, they would end up as friends or lovers or something in between.
Not everyone wanted to find their soulmate, but having no soulmate at all was even rarer than being quirkless. And on Kirishima’s wrist, there was nothing.
His love of sweatbands and nice watches wasn’t because of their usefulness and functionality, but because it meant he never had any questions about his soulmark. Though that didn’t mean he completely avoided the subject, and he always felt a sting in his heart whenever his friends brought it up.
But UA would be different - he told himself - at UA, he wouldn’t fear judgement because of it. And so for his first day of hero school, he didn’t cover his wrist, the empty space looking so abnormal to him.
Yet on the first day, quite a few people found their soulmates. He may have felt his heart ache, but reminded himself of the new person he was. He wouldn’t let this get him down. So when the topic of soulmates was brought up, he didn’t shy away - though he was nervous - and told his class about his lack of soulmark. No one made a fuss, and no one made him feel bad. Bakugo even called him lucky for not having destiny be the one to decide his partner.
So manly.
And though he still wished he had a soulmate, he didn’t let himself feel upset that he didn’t have a soulmark. Well, that was until he met you.
You were a transfer student who joined midyear, and apparently you knew Uraraka since she greeted you with a hug the moment she saw you. And then once Aizawa walked in,  you introduced yourself to the class.
Notebook in hand, you took a deep breath and stood in front of the class. Kirishima watched as you flipped open the first page of the notebook and gasps and whispers filled the room.
“Hello, my name is (y/n), and I’m deaf” 
And you flipped the page again.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you all”
You were nervous, he could tell you were nervous, but you smiled through it regardless. You were shown to your seat by Aizawa, and the moment he tried to go back to sleep the class erupted into chatter. Uraraka ran over to you and started making quick hand movements to you, which Kirishima realised was sign language.
The rest of the class followed suit, all rushing over trying to talk to you and asking Uraraka to translate. You took out your notebook with some pre-written answers for common questions. Things like:
“I do have hearing aids, but that doesn’t mean I can hear fully”
“If you want to talk to me, please make sure I’m able to see your face so I can better understand what you’re saying”
Once the fuss all died down, Uraraka ended up convincing you and a bunch of others to start a club to teach people sign language so you could communicate with them more easily. Which was then followed by Bakugo, of all people, going up to you and challenging you (and probably also insulting your quirk) in fluent sign language.
But Kirishima never took his eyes off you. You were gorgeous. The way you interacted with the class as they asked you questions, and how cute you were when you were focusing on listening to someone. Your smile and the positive aura you had.
He had fallen hard.
---
He walked up to you one day with the intention of asking about joining the sign language club, but he couldn’t seem to think clearly. He had never spoken to you before, so once he had your attention his mind blanked.
Instead he said the first thing that popped into his brain.
“Hey, I uh… just wanted to say I think you’re really pretty…”
Your eyes went wide as your wrist started to tingle and then gently burn. It only lasted a moment, but you knew exactly what it meant. You pulled your sleeve down just enough to see the words glowing, and then turned to furiously sign to Uraraka, who was already understanding what was going on.
“Oh my gosh, (y/n)’s your soulmate!” She exclaimed, probably a little louder than she intended as you winced at the noise.
“What?” Kiri asked, not because he didn’t figure it out, but because it simply wasn’t possible. And yet it made so much sense.
The silence that followed rang loud, and yet your bright smile made everything alright. Kiri couldn’t help but pull you into a gentle hug, one that you quickly reciprocated.
From that moment on, Kirishima felt complete, felt as though his heart was whole. As though all those years spent feeling insecure about his lack of soulmark, and all those nights he spent wishing he’d have a soulmate were nothing.
And your friendship quickly became something more. Kiri didn’t want to feel like he was pushing you into a relationship, but it just felt so natural. His love for you was unlike anything he had ever felt, and it only grew greater each day.
Kirishima wanted to confess his feelings for you, but he wasn’t sure how. Not once had to two of you spoken about your feelings regarding the realtionship, and he wanted it to be special. 
He finally convinced Bakugo to teach him sign language - even though Bkakugo wouldn’t tell Kiri why he knew it - and planned the perfect way to tell you. On his birthday.
Unbeknownst to him, you wanted to do something special too. With the help of Uraraka, Momo and Jiro, you all came up with a plan. The three of them were the best friends you could ask for and were so supportive of your feelings for Kirishima. Together, they helped you learn over the months, and for Kiri’s birthday you were going to tell him you loved him. With words.
It wasn’t as though you couldn’t speak, you could, you were just so self-conscious about how you sounded - and of course it wasn’t easy. But it was something you were willing to do for Eijiro. He was so uplifting to be around, and encouraged you endlessly. For years you were worried that your soulmate wouldn’t be interested in you romantically because of your disability, but Kiri didn’t care. He loved you regardless, and you couldn’t be happier.
But when the day finally rolled around, you suddenly didn’t trust yourself. What if you sounded weird? What if he didn’t like your voice? You knew it was just your thoughts bringing you down, but they were so difficult to ignore.
A tap on your shoulder brought you back from your thoughts, and your turned to face Bakugo and Kirishima. You smiled at Kiri, but Bakugo had something to say.
“Stupid hair had something important to say, so you better pay attention” he signed, “I’ll kill you if you don’t treat him well”
His face softened, and he patted you on the back before leaving, which took you off guard. It leaft you and Kiri alone together, but you were still confused.
He looked nervous, but before you could ask any questions, he bagan signing.
“It’s my birthday today, and I wanted to do something special”
“And I really don’t want to come off as weird, but it’s not manly for me to keep my feelings hidden from you”
He signed to you fluently and confidently, making a few mistakes here and there, but you could tell he was really trying. And it was wonderful.
“I love you (y/n)”
This was not how you expected it to go, but it was perfect nonetheless. He confessed to you! It was practically the perefct setup.
“I love you to-o, Kiri-shima” You said, making sure you carefully sounded out the words so you didn’t say anything wrong.
Kiri didn’t even have time to process that you just spoke. You loved him too!
“Really?! Ow-” He felt his wrist burn, and he hadn’t even noticed until it hurt. He tugged his sleeve down to see what had happened, but paused when he saw there was no wound. Instead, his wrist was glowing with words appearing on his skin.
‘I love you too, Kirishima’

idk if ur reqs are open but I would love to hear your thoughts on Vere 👁️👁️ hes literally dominated my entire headspace I can’t go ten minutes w/o thinking ab how I want to bite his forearm
GENERAL VERE HCS
Tumblr media
gn!reader | back 2 knocking these guys out of the park. also i realized these are shorter than my hq bf hcs so. if anyone wants a pt.2 for anybody.. u know what to do
Tumblr media
i think u Should bite his arm. For Fun. vere w bite-y partner who he bites back. 'gently' considering he has fangs though
congratulations on being one of 2 people he'd let touch and brush his tail. sometimes he swishes it against your face and then pretends he didn't. "i have no idea what you're talking about," he says before making direct eye contact and doing it again
he likes drawing. ok. have we considered him drawing you. you ask him about it and he says he won't show you. you tease him and ask "what? did you draw sparkles and hearts surrounding me?" and he plays along, "yes, i even checked what i'd look like with your last name and drew us kissing."
It's actually quite a nice sketch of you though. like of you smiling or asleep or something because you fell aslep near him. oh man...
vere knows all the ins and outs of the city which means he can give you a personalized tour that caters to all your interests!! you can ask him to take you to his favourite spots too of course but he feels very accomplished watching you grin in the store he purposely walked by
shocked if you get him a gift. acts nonchalant and is good enough at accepting things but internally, especially if it's something he's been eyeing for a while or has sentimental value,, he . He....
like yeah okay vere...act all cool...as if your eyes don't flicker over whenever you walk past it...as if you don't catch yourself smiling subconsciously...whatever
definitely tries cooking your favourite meal. doesn't go very well, especially if it's something he's never had, but he'll keep practicing until he makes something decent. don't ask how many attempts he did because he won't tell you unless he somehow started a fire and even Then the truth is debatable
if YOU know how to cook it Please for the love of god teach him, or write down the recipe for both your sakes. for the kitchen. plea
everyone tells him/the both of you to shut the hell up whenever you start flirting back and forth/competing to see how many innuendos you can feasibly say. the both of you team up only to bully everyone else for being single before continuing
asshole if you played uno. i'm not competitive nor do i give two shits if i lose at uno but even i would lose it watching vere push for whatever stacking rule he needs to get someone a +20. watch your cards or he'll manage to look over at them. do not trust a single deal he tries. watch his ears and tail i'm sure he has a tell
really good at helping build confidence . what ais said about him being honest but also not trusting anything he says yeah well this is when he'd be completely honest. easily reminds you how capable you are of something, knows what makes you confident, etc etc. and you just ? know you can trust him? it's the vibe. how he says it so plainly as if it's obvious
don't try to lie to him about things. like if you're upset about something it is So obvious to him no matter how hard you try and he'd really appreciate it if you would tell him why or ask to talk about it later when you're ready.
^ as someone who wants to piss her pants at the thought of being direct or whatever,, he'd also be very good at knowing when to push or not. if you respond better to a lighter/gentle reminder i'm sure he would do so :heart:
i have a feeling this guy would be incredibly incredibly incredibly into you asking to post him on any socmed. do you want his face in it. do you want it to be a little spicy. should he pose. actually he probably pouts a little if you want a faceless pose but bro why does it matter if there is not a cm of space between us. why is your hand around my neck rn /lh You know the poses

Diabolik Lovers CHAOS LINEAGE ー Subaru [01]
Tumblr media
ー The scene starts in the dungeon of the Violet Manor
Subaru: Aah? Why me?
Yui: ( Uu, his glare gives me cold shivers...But this guy, for some reasonーー )
You seemed like a nice person so...
Subaru: Hah? I think you’re gettin’ the wrong idea here. Fuck off... Besides, I don’t wanna have to bother watchin’ over you!
Yui: B-But we agreed that I would choose one person...
Subaru: Che, what a pain.
...Fine, I just gotta do it, right!? But don’t cause trouble for me, ‘kay?
Yui: O-Okay. Thank you very much.
( He actually accepted it. Sure, he might seem scary on the outside, but strangely enough, he strikes me as a kind person. )
( I’m not sure why I feel that way though... )
*TIMESKIP*
Yui: Nn...Where am I...?
( Ah...Right. The manor’s dungeon...I must have fallen asleep. )
Monologue
After waking up at the Church,
I was taken to the Violet Manor.
Once locked away in the dungeon,
they told me to choose someone to watch over me, so I picked Subaru-san.
While he may seem scary at first glance,
I feel as if he has a gentle side to him as well.
With that in mind,
I asked him to be in charge of supervising me, butーー
Subaru: What? You’re awake?
Yui: ...! Yes, I woke up.
( I wonder if he kept an eye on me the whole time while I was asleep as well? I didn’t notice at all. )
( Also, is he upset or something? He seems to be in a really foul mood. )
( At first he struck me as a kind guy for some reason, but perhaps that was a misunderstanding on my part...? )
Subaru: What’s your problem? You’re so annoyin’. Don’t just watch me in silence. If you’ve got somethin’ to say, spit it out!
Yui: W-Well...My bad.
( He said I should say what’s on my mind so...I guess I’ll ask? )
Uhm, how long will I have to stay in this cell?
Subaru: Like I know. That’s up to Carla to decide.
Yui: ( In other words, there’s no telling when I’ll be able to get out? )
Excuse me! Can’t you ask him to let me out?
Subaru: Are you dumb? Hell no.
Sure, you might be the ‘legendary Eve’ who is necessary for someone to become the next Supreme Overlord, but I bet you think you’re oh-so special, don’t you?
That arrogance of yours pisses me the hell off.
Yui: ...Ugh.
( I guess it’s no use after all...Seems like I only made him even more mad. )
Subaru: Che. Thanks for ruinin’ my mood even more.
I want to just isolate myself in my room, and as if that isn’t bad enough, I’m here havin’ to look after some chick instead.
Yui: I-I’m sorry...
Subaru: Aah!? Too fuckin’ late to apologize now!
Yui: Eek...!
Subaru: The way you flinch like that pisses me off too. You’re the one who chose me for this job, remember? 
Are you havin’ regrets now or somethin’!?
*Thud*
Yui: Kyaah!?
( H-He dented the iron bars with his foot...I was wrong to think he’s a nice guy. He’s incredibly rough around the edges...! )
Subaru: Fuck! This anger has made me thirsty...
...Oi, come here for a sec.
Yui: Eh...?
Subaru: Hurry up. Walk up to the bars.
Yui: Ah, s-sure...
( Who knows what he’ll do if I refuse....I have no other choice but to obey. )
ー Yui approaches the iron bars
Yui: I-Is this okay?
Subaru: ...You actually came? What a dumb woman you are.
Yui: Eh?
Subaru: Everyone at this manor is a Vampire. Myself included.
Yui: Y-Yes...
( I wonder what he means with that? )
Subaru: I can tell by the look on your face that you don’t get it at all. ...It’s that ignorance which will come biting you in the ass. Like this!
*Clang*
*Rustle*
Yui: Kyaah!?
*Rustle*
Yui: L-Let me go, please! What on earth are you...!?
Subaru: I’m tryin’ to teach you that you don’t understand your own position. From a Vampire’s point of view, humans are our food.
Maybe you were hopin’ to get treated like some damn Princess ‘cause you’re the legendary Eve but...
I’ll remind you that as long as you’re down here, you’re nothin’ but mere prey.
Yui: N-No way!
*Rustle*
Subaru: Come on, I’ll suck from your shoulder. It might hurt if you don’t keep still. Nn...Nnh...
ー Subaru bites her
Yui: ...Ah.
( He’s sucking my blood...His fangs are sinking into my shoulder...! )
( Is this what he meant by ‘prey’? Am I going to spend the rest of my days locked up down here as these people feed off my blood? )
( No, I don’t want that...! )
Stop! Let me go, please!
*Rustle* 
Subaru: Oi, don’t thrash ‘bout! Didn’t I tell you to keep still!?
Anyway, the fuck’s up with this blood...? It’s way more sweet than I thought.
Damnit, I just wanted to scare you a lil’ by bitin’ you but I can’t stop...! ...Nn...
Yui: ...Kuh...
( These fangs...This pain...For some reason, it feels nostalgic to me. Do I know this sensation...? )
( Why? How...? )
Subaru: Nn...Hah...Nnh...
Yui: Aah...!
ー Yui starts growing dizzy
Yui: ( The place where he bit is burning...The heat’s rising to my head andーー )
ー She experiences flashbacks of her past memories
Yui: Wha...?
( What...? Where is...that place I saw just now? )
ー Yui has another flashback
Yui: ( Uu...! ...What are these images...? )
( I know...this house. It’s a very nostalgic place but... )
( Uu, kuh...It’s like something is stirring up my mind... )
*Riiiing*
Yui: Ah...Aah...
...I...I...
Subaru: Haah...What’s wrong? Is somethin’ the matter?
Yui: That place...
It is the home, we must return to...
Subaru: ...Haah?
ー Yui regains her memories
Yui: Aah...! Aaaaaaah!!!
*WOOSH*
ー The screen temporarily fades to white
Yui: ( A bunch of different images and information...are swirling inside my head at once... )
( Right...I am, we areーー )
Uu...Kuh...
Subaru: Oi!? What has gotten into you all of a sudden!? Whatcha screamin’ for!?
Yui: ...No, I am not the legendary Eve.
I’m...Yui...
Subaru: ...Haah?
Yui: ( Right...I remembered everything. )
( I moved into the Sakamaki manor and met Subaru-kunーー Then we eventually started dating. )
( I could have sworn I was there before I suddenly awoke at the Church. Where is this place? )
( Why did I...forget who I am? )
( It’s not just me either. Everyone is acting strange. )
Subaru: What’s with that dumb look on your face...? Did you lose your mind ‘cause I sucked a bit of your blood?
Yui: No, I haven’t. I remembered everything, that’s all...
How could I forget about something so important...?
Hey, Subaru-kun! What is going on? Where are we!?
Subaru: Haah? 
Yui: Why are Carla-san and the others at the same manor...? Do the Tsukinami brothers own these lands?
Subaru: Oh shut up...What nonsense do you keep spoutin’?
Yui: Eh...?
Subaru: Did you forget overnight? Carla is my older brother. Why would it be strange for him to live here?
Yui: No way...
( Carla-san is his older brother? There’s just no... )
( But they did introduce themselves like that yesterday. What is going on? )
R-Right. Where is Ayato-kun? And Kanato-kun...You remember your own brothers, don’t you?
Subaru: My brothers? Those dudes from the Orange House?
Hah! The fuck are you sayin’? They’re the enemy!
Yui: No way...
*Thud* 
Yui: T-Then, what about me!? Do you know who I am!?
Subaru: You’re Eve, right? The woman needed to become the Supreme Overlord of this place. I haven’t forgotten that.
Yui: No, that’s not what I meant...
( We’re a couple, Subaru-kun. ...Sakamaki Subaru-kun. )
Selection
→ Tell him that you are dating (♡)
Yui: ( I wonder if he’ll remember if I tell him the truth...? )
Hey, Subaru-kun. We’re dating, you know.
Subaru: ...Haah? You’ve been spoutin’ nothin’ but bullcrap this one time, but that one beats all.
Are you sayin’ that sorta stuff ‘cause you wanna get outta here and regain your freedom?
I won’t let you out of your cell, even if you keep on talkin’ out of your ass.
In the end, you’ll just get chased ‘round by those other guys if you make it out of here.
Then I’d argue that you’re still better off down here.
→ Tell him that you know each other (🖤)
Yui: ( Subaru-kun sees me as a stranger...? )
( His memories are jumbled up after all... )
( Even if he can’t recall that we’re lovers, I wish he would remember me somewhere deep downーー ) 
Subaru-kun. We didn’t meet for the first time yesterday.
We’ve known each other...for a very long time.
Subaru: Che...Why are you makin’ all of this crap up?
I met you for the first time yesterday. Now cut the crap or you’ll be in for a world of pain.
Yui: ( I guess he won’t believe me after all... )
Subaru: ...Do you want to get outta here so badly?
Even if you somehow were to escape this manor, you’ll just be caught by one of the other guys. You really are an idiot.
Yui: ( Subaru-kun wouldn’t joke around about something like this... )
( He truly does not does doubt the fact that he is Subaru from the Violet Manor. )
( Could it be that his memories have been altered, just like mine were up till now? And those of the others’ too. )
( I wonder what we’ve gotten ourselves caught up in...? )
Subaru: ...Why do you look mortified?
Aah, I guess it makes sense to be in shock after havin’ your blood sucked for the first time ever. You’ve only got your own carelessness to blame though.
Yui: ( No, that wasn’t the first time. He’s drank my blood so many times. )
( But right now, I’m mere food in this eyes, not his girlfriend or anything even remotely close to that... )
( Almost as if we’re back to square one...That just can’t be. )
Subaru: Oi, don’t be tearin’ up now. The other guys will get the wrong idea.
*Thud*
ー Kou approaches them
Kou: Hey there~! Getting along just fine? You guysー ...Wait. Woah, what’s with the heavy atmosphere?
Azusa: Eve...Looks as if she’s about to cry. Did something...happen?
Yui: ( Kou-kun, Azusa-kun... )
Kou: Ah! You were picking on her, weren’t you!?
Azusa: You mustn’t...Subaru. You have to take good care of Eve...
Subaru: Don’t be makin’ assumptions! I’m not a lil’ kid!
Anyway, why are you guys here? 
Kou: Ah, right! Carla-kun’s asking for you. There’s something he wants to talk about, apparently.
Subaru: Carla does?
Azusa: Yes...That’s why we’ve come to get the two of you...
Yui: Eh...?
Subaru: ...She’s coming as well?
Yui: ( Subaru-kun’s glaring at me. I guess he’s suspicious of me after I said all those strange things... )
Subaru: I don’t mind lettin’ her out of her cell, but don’t blame me when she makes a run for it!
She’s willing to go as far as to lie just to escape this place after all.
Yui: ( I never lied though... )
Azusa: Don’t worry...We’ll help out as well, so let’s go while keeping a close eye on her, so she doesn’t escape... 
Subaru: Lock her up, then let her out. Stop changin’ your damn mind every five seconds.
Kou: Go complain to Carla-kun about that. It’s not our fault.
Azusa: ...Carla is the eldest son of the Violet House, so we only do as he says...
Yui: ( Kou-kun and Azusa-kun don’t seem doubtful of the current family make-up either... )
( Even though Carla-san is a Founder, so there’s no way he’d be related to Vampires. )
( I wonder how this happened...? )
Subaru: ...God, what a drag. Oi, Eve! Get outta your cell. Don’t cause me trouble, ‘kay?
Yui: ( Does the problem lie with everyone else? Or maybe I’m the issue...? I don’t know, Subaru-kun! )

Since you’ve already done Mosul Trein for the character opinion bingo, what do you think of Crewel and Grim (who is apparently counted as NRC staff?)?
Tumblr media
Trein Character Opinion Bingo here!
Nuuu Grim is NOT categorized staff 😭 I don’t know who’s counting him as one, he’s just a little meow meow…………………….
***Standard disclaimer: These are just my personal opinions of the character(s); regardless of what I may think of them, sharing my thoughts is NOT meant to offend or to shame anyone that thinks differently.***
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh boy, here’s another hot take from Raven on a popular character: Crewel’s just okay, he isn’t great. I enjoy bits and pieces of him, but I wouldn’t say I necessarily “like” him? I only like him in certain scenes and specific contexts.
TWST sometimes mentions that Crewel is very into fashion (which is something I can relate to), but the way he personally dresses looks so hideous to me 🤡 I can excuse his haircut, but the color blocked suit, high rise ankle pants, and that garish fur coat with the tails are ridiculous and resembles the mildly impractical kind of clothing I’d see on some fashion runways. This is an instance in which leaning too much into the character inspiration didn’t work out.
I think the main story tells us that Crewel is Adeuce, Grim, and MC’s homeroom teacher, but I don’t get the impression that he actually is aside from a few blatant reminders here and there. I feel like he should be a tiny bit more interactive with the main squad if he’s their homeroom teacher, but instead he only really shows up when the plot calls for him. It doesn’t give us a lot of base content to work with when it comes to his character, so all I get from him is that he’s haughty and proud, has fancy tastes, and is stern and even scarier when upset (kind of like a “tough love” thing). 🤡 OKAY, I DON’T KNOW IF THIS IS JUST A ME THING, BUT IT MUST BE BECAUSE I NEVER HEAR ANYONE ELSE TALK ABOUT THIS: I don’t think Crewel calling his students “puppies” is cute, it just comes off to me as degrading and, quite frankly, insulting :/ A PUPPY IS JUST LIKE A BABY EXCEPT WITH FUR... so it’s like a teacher is calling you a baby to your face. It drives me insane, because it comes across as Crewel looking down on his students rather than treating them as his equals or as people worthy of respect, and it doesn’t make him appear approachable.
In some events (like Scary Monsters! and Fairy Gala), we get to see more to him and how he engages with the other characters, students and staff alike. It shows me that Crewel is much more interesting when he’s NOT actively teaching. We can see that he is truly passionate about fashion, and that while he is usually strict, he also advocates for letting loose every now and again, and has a more forward-thinking mindset than Trein, who is pretty old-fashioned. It’s great fun seeing Crewel and Trein butt heads over their differences, be it modernism vs traditionalism, dogs vs cats, etc.
I think most of why I don’t like Crewel is because a lot of the stuff I see in the fandom only focuses on this particular interpretation in which Crewel is................................. (Michard, please forgive me for saying this and sullying the name of your expansive media empire) “daddy”???????? Like, he’s portrayed as extremely smug and domineering, someone who won’t compromise at all, and that’s not appealing to me. I much prefer the Crewel who will scold his students for misbehaving one second then tell them it’s okay to let their hair down as long as it’s not in his classroom the next, the Crewel who will give treats to good boys like Grim, the Crewel who will butt heads and fight for what he stands for.
OH, AND ONE THING WE DON’T GET ENOUGH OF??????? SHOW ME SCIENCE CLUB ADVISOR CREWEL, TWST DEVS. I AM NO LONGER ASKING. It would be so funny to see Crewel trying to keep a lid on Rook in the lab, or overseeing Trey using club time to bake even though you’re not supposed to eat science experiments. There’s a lot of untapped potential in this club dynamic, and I really hope TWST seizes the opportunity and properly showcases their zany antics sometime soon. (No lie, I kind of headcanon Crewel as being like a father figure to Trey and Rook 😇 like he’s more stern with, but also more protective of, his science club children.....................)

AT LAST 🥺 I CAN GUSH ABOUT GRIMMUGRIMMU MY FURBABY 
He is, by default, the best boy in the game on account of being a fluffy cute kitty (no matter how much he claims he’s not one). I love his sassy little face, that tuft of white fur on his chest, the mysterious blue flames, and his pronged tail ✨ Whenever Grim gets a new outfit, my heart just feels all warm and fuzzy! I only wish he got more of them, because he deserves a whole closet of fancy accessories and outfits. He at LEAST needs a ribbon for each of the dorms (we’ve had Heartslabuyl and the standard striped one for Ramshackle so far), an outfit for each event (technically we’ve only had Halloween and Harveston), and a Grim version of each of the standard looks each main boy gets (School Uniform and Labwear were released as anniversary cards; I’m hoping we get Ceremonial Robes Grim next anniversary).
Grim is actually important and has an impact on the main story, AND he’s a genuine friend to MC through all those hot messes. He can be grating and cause trouble, but then again, what friend doesn’t? He feels so raw and real, like the type of friend you’d constantly bicker with because you’re just that close and you can totally understand that the other person doesn’t mean any genuine harm when they sass back. “Minion” never feels insulting to me, it just feels like a dumb nickname my best friend would call me just to be cheeky. It’s clear that Grim and MC care for each other and can poke fun of the other without it coming across as malicious. Sometimes he reminds me of my pet (not just because of how he looks), cuz he’s sassy, bratty, demanding, and easily motivated by food… but I love Grim, just as I love my pet, all the same.
Grim is the one and only character who has been with us since the very start. Fuck Crowley, fuck Adeuce, fuck Malleus, fuck ALL the TWST characters (yes, even the ones I really love); Grim is the REAL first friend we ever made in Twisted Wonderland, and he is the one we are closest to in the game, the one we spend the most time with. He’s our roommate, and our literal other half as a student. He was always with us through circumstance, but was those circumstances that brought you closer to him. He IS a piece of our world.
… And he’s also kinda dumb and eats suspicious rocks he just finds lying around on the floor BUT HEY there’s plot significance in that, so I’ll allow it 😤 I really like that “haha Grim eats rocks, how funny” was super relevant and is actually culminating into something sinister in the main story. It really hurts to see a good friend going down a dark path 😭 I just wish TWST had gone more “all the way” in some aspects of it… Like when Grim attacks MC, I thought it would have been something more substantial than just a cat scratch??????? I personally think it would have worked better because taking a harder hit would have left MC with a more evident physical reminder that Grim was changing into something they didn’t recognize anymore. A larger/deeper wound would better allude to how truly powerless MC is in this world (something not often directly addressed in the narrative), and it brings up the fragility of human life (which seems to be a major theme being foreshadowed for episode 7). But oh well, what’s done is done and I’ll accept that. It works just fine as is, since it was mentioned that the catscratch was the first time Grim ever hurt or tried to purposefully attack MC.
Episode 6 was already very emotionally touching between the story of the Shroud brothers and the character development for the other OB boys, but something else that resonated with me were the few Grim scenes we got. We witness him being kidnapped, and we see MC’s desperation to get him back, the distance that MC is willing to go for their dear friend 🥺 Meanwhile, Grim wakes up in an unfamiliar place, finding himself completely alone… AnD THE pOOR BqBY CRiES 😭 because unlike when MC first “woke up”, no one is there to greet him. Where’s his buddy? Why’s he in this weird place, subjected to all these tests by strange people? Why does he have these scary memories of hurting his friend? Is he… a bad person? No, no, Grim is good. Right? He has to be… It must be so scary being in Grim’s shoes… and can you imagine the relief he feels when he sees MC and Adeuce again???????? POOR BABY CRIES AGAIN, he’s finally free, he’s finally home. I JUST WANNA HUG HIM AND NEVER LET HIM GO.
What really scares me is that????? Grim will be sad again if MC has to return home. I don’t care how Adeuce or Malleus feel about it, I think Grim will be the one that will hurt the most. His first friend, his other half, is suddenly going away, and he’ll never be able to see them again. All those fun times and happy memories will never happen again. If I were Grim, I’d totally lose it too 😭
I think the fandom is pretty split when it comes to Grim? I see a lot of people who think he’s a cute gremlin, but I see just as many people hating on him. While every opinion is valid, I can’t say that I see eye-to-eye with some of the reasoning for the Grim hate???? I agree that his voice is annoying, but I don’t understand why people don’t like Grim for “being a shit” (because honestly, most of the main cast is shitty too) or for “taking attention away from MC”. Maybe I just don’t care as much about the latter because I’ve never been the type to self-insert as MC, I’ve just seen Grim as the main character anyway and MC as more of a sidekick or an addition to his character. Just because you are the “MC” doesn’t mean the story is actually about you, it’s very possible to frame a story from the MC’s perspective without having the focus of the narrative be on MC. I find much more entertainment in this kind of storytelling; it makes me feel like a fly on the wall watching the drama go down 👀
I also don’t think it’s fair to pin the blame on Grim when this was a very conscious decision by the TWST devs for the stories they wanted to tell. It gives the players the chance to self insert and imagine alternate scenarios as much or as little as they want!! If MC was too involved, it would have the unintentional effect of alienating people who could never see themselves doing or saying the things the game is making their MC do/say. (It’s why I personally take issue with being forced to be Malleus’s “friend”, because even though I wouldn’t want to do that, the game is making me to go out and engage with him anyway.) Grim’s just out here vibin’ and eating his canned tuna, let the kitty consume in peace 😭
If I’m being entirely honest, I wonder if part of the reason people don’t have patience with Grim (at least not compared to the other main boys) is because he isn’t a hot anime guy 😔 I really love seeing humanized Grim fan art and fanfiction, but sometimes I’m left feeling like humanized Grim would have been preferred over the original 😅 I get that we’re all here to enjoy pretty characters, but I don’t like the implication that humanized Grim somehow makes him more “palatable” to the audience. Granted, it’s not as bad as being disgusted by Trein because of his age, but it still gives the impression that Grim would be valued more if he was a conventionally attractive human. I think Grim is perfect the way he is, so 💦 you can imagine why that bothers me.

Down The Rabbit Hole, Chapter 5
Word Count: 1.3k
Warnings:  slight angst, self-doubt, cheating/kissing.
Tumblr media
“This is out of control,” Tawney said firmly as she looked around Abed’s dorm room.  He’d had numerous boards of the group and their likes, functions, and needs, as well as a schedule for chicken, and potential deals to be made.   She pointed to the board, “Abed…what is this?”
“It’s for us,” he said with a shrug as though it was nothing major, “I was trying to make something good for us.  I made a reminder of all of our needs, wants, and likes, to see what the most beneficial things were for the group.  I’m including you guys!”
She looked at her picture. 
Her name was above it.  To the left under the ‘likes’ column was:  books, the group, Abed, movies, and being right.  Under the needs column on the right was:  control, more books, movie tickets to the new Kickpuncher, teaching degree, more time, and a date night with Abed.  Her listed function was planning.
“Abed…” she hissed, turning towards him, “this is-“
“It’s great, right…by using the board I can help all of us-wait…you’re giving me an upset look.  Is everything alright?” he asked. 
Her eyes trailed over the items that were specifically based around him.
“Abed…e-everyone can see this…” she said nervously as she eyed the board, “everyone that comes into your room can see all of this?”
“Yeah?”
“I thought you wanted to keep our relationship secret!”
“I do,” he said quickly, nodding along, “but it helps to put pertinent information on the board that way I can prioritize our needs.”
She felt a pang in her stomach as he talked about their relationship so robotically.
“You look really upset now,” he said quickly, shifting out of his seat, “are you upset with me or something I did?  Is it the board?”
“I-I don’t want to do this,” she answered, shaking her head, “I-I think you should remove me from the board.  I don’t want anything to do with this, Abed.”
“But you need to…everyone in the group is helping.  It’s not just one of us,” he replied, “all of us help make it work!”
“I don’t want to, Abed…”
“What are you doing here?”
Jeff sighed, swallowing down the anxiety he’d been carrying since he visited Abed’s room, “you have to stop your boyfriend.”
But Tawney only shook her head, scoffing at Jeff’s request, “Abed’s not my boyfriend, Jeff.”
Jeff frowned, “What?  Yes he is.  You two have been dating since Valentine’s day.  I remember him calling you when we got drunk…”
“And thanks to your stupid chicken tender mafia we’re not,” she grumbled, already attempting to shut the door in his face.  But Jeff sopped her as she nearly had the door shut, “excuse me, Jeff…I’ve got other stuff to do!  Please move your foot.”
“And I need your help, Tawney!” he said quickly, urging her to keep the door open, “you’re just as much a part of the group as anyone else.”
“No,” she said firmly, attempting to correct him, “What you need is to go home.  I’m not helping whatever new plan you’re hatching!  I’m not some mindless nitwit who wants to follow you because I’m part of the group.”
“I need to stop Abed.”
“What you need to do, Jeff, is leave me out of it,” she hissed, trying to close the door.  Jeff put his arm out, causing the door to bounce off of his hand, “Jeff!”
“I won’t let you close the door, Tawney,” he answered desperately, “please…help me with this.”
She sighed and opened the door a little bit more.  He didn’t move and she huffed, “Are you going to stand out there all evening, or are you going to come in?”
He smiled, as she moved to the side, granting him access to her dorm.  He slid into the room, and Tawney closed the door behind him.
“Thank you!”
“I don’t know why you’re thanking me,” she shrugged, “Abed and I aren’t exactly on the best of terms right now, so I don’t know how I can help you.”
“You-you’re his girlfriend, aren’t you?”
“Yeah…well…I think so…but maybe not.  I just-“
“That day the girls found out someone had a crush on Abed,” he said thoughtfully, thinking back to when she’d become a little more withdrawn from the group, and had stopped hanging around the girls as much, “did you ever talk to Annie, Britta, and Shirley?”
“It’s not worth it Jeff.”
“Tawn-“
“I don’t really want to talk about my relationship with Abed,” she shrugged, feeling more self-conscious now than ever, “if you’re going to just tell me that I need to talk to him or the girls about it, then you can just leave and figure it out on your own.”
“Wait, look.  I-I’m sorry…”
Tawney’s eyes shot up to his.  Jeff hadn’t ever apologized, or rather she hadn’t ever heard him apologize and mean it.  But there was something about the way that he said it that made her believe that he wasn’t just grandstanding for the sake of it, or giving a hollow apology.
“Thanks…”
“I meant what I said last time when we talked though…that day when you confirmed that you and Abed were dating…”Jeff said thoughtfully, “you shouldn’t ever be anyone’s second choice, Tawney…”
“Thanks Jeff…”
“So uh….about the group…” “Honestly, they’re treating Abed how they used to treat you…and it’s because he’s able to do things for them,” she admitted after a second, “I mean, he got Pierce his weird little entourage.  Britta has her hair stylist.  Annie has her school stuff like a backpack and notebooks.  Shirley has the attention of the guy with the dreadlocks…and even Troy has a monkey.”
“But why didn’t he do anything for us?”
“He couldn’t,” she shrugged, “Abed…knows people.  He’s a man who studies human character.  He started filling your spot, and he couldn’t do anything for you, because you like being treated like you’re the king of the castle.  And…well…he can’t do anything for me because he knows that I want more out of our relationship…that-that’s why we’ve been on the rocks.  He knows, just as well as I do, that we just…aren’t compatible on that level.”
Jeff frowned. 
He reached out and touched her arm, “Tawney…”
“I-it’s fine.  I guess that I’ve known that for a while,” she shrugged, obviously lying.  Jeff gave her another look, and she gave another heavy sigh, “I just…I wish I didn’t feel so insecure in my relationship with Abed.   He’s pretty much my first boyfriend and first real relationship, and I just feel like I’m doing everything wrong when it comes to him.  I see how everyone else is around campus in a relationship and it’s nothing like with me and Abed.  Abed wants to keep us some secret…he-he doesn’t want to hold my hand or anything…I just-“
But she was cut off. 
Jeff had felt the pang in the pit of his stomach the second she started her sad monologue about feeling unwanted.  There was something deep within himself that resonated so intensely with that feeling that he just wanted to make it better. 
Unfortunately, the only thing he could think of was to rush her, sweep her up in his arms, and kiss her with all the passion that he could muster. 
She caved right into it, if only for a second, allowing herself to feel everything that she’d ignored. 
The attraction between the two was obvious in the half a second before she pushed herself away from him.
The chemistry was electric, and nearly breathtaking.
“I-I’m dating Abed Jeff…” she stuttered, eyes wide as she gazed at the man who she recently realized she’d had an attraction to.  Her hands went up to her lips as she felt them, still in disbelief over what he had done, “wh-why would you do that?  Jeff…I-I’m dating Abed!”

♱ DIABOLIK LOVERS: Haunted Dark Bridal ー Sakamaki Ryuuto | Ecstasy 04 ♱
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
⌜ Scene: School Hallway ⌟
Yui: Gosh, what rubbish they’re teaching nowadays.
Although, I suppose it was some fun playing the ditzy, school-girl role for once. It’s astonishing how little I stand out in this vessel, you know.
( I guess that makes for just another difference between us. )
Are you calling me an attention-seeker? Nfu, what cheek!
Anyhow…
Remind me to tell Richter to withdraw your attendance, won’t you? I think this one-day trial was more than enough for my liking.
???: I thought I smelt a rat.
Yui: That voice…
I was beginning to think you were avoiding me〜.
ー Laito appears in front of Cordelia. ー
Laito: How could I? Your stench isn’t so easily ignored.
Yui: Come now, do you have to be so cold?
ー Cordelia approaches him. ー
( D-Don’t get so close to him! Please… )
I’m a little hurt with how things left off between us... I never thought you, of all people, would attempt to take my life like that.
After saying how much you loved me?
Laito: Fufu, maybe that’s why I did it?
━─┉┈◈ Selection ◈┈┉─━
  ❈  Laito-kun murdered you…? (♥)
Yui: ( Laito-kun was… the one to kill you!? )
He’s pretty cruel, isn’t he? He really upset Ryuuto, that night.
Laito: Oh? Is that Bitch-chan you’re talking to, inside you?
Yui: Yes. She’s going on about how terrible what you did was. Although I doubt someone like her understands how much that means.
Murdering a Vampire is the highest form of love, after all.
  ❈  Laito-kun loves you…?
Yui: ( Laito-kun’s love… )
It only makes sense he tried to take my life as proof of it, don’t you think? Ryuuto would do the very same.
Laito: Do you think so, too… Bitch-chan?
She’s still inside you, isn’t she? That’s why you’re spouting all kinds of lies about that person. In reality… He’s too much of a coward.
Yui: Ufufu, maybe you’re right about him?
━━─┉┈┈◈◉◈┈┈┉─━━
Laito: Even still… What a turn of events. I guess it’s taking a while to take over that body completely? That’s not something you considered, is it?
Yui: She’s already weakened; She’ll be gone sooner than you think.
ー Cordelia presses her hand against Laito’s chest. ー
Say… You’re not even the tiniest bit pleased that I’m back, Laito?
Laito: Who can say? Matter of fact… Who’s to say that I won’t kill you again, with my two bare hands right now, Cordelia?
Yui: I’d make my way back somehow, you know that.
After all, I won’t be satisfied leaving this earth until I can return to Him once and for all, and strike him down with all my love, myself.
Laito: That guy, ehh?
…I can’t forgive that, Cordelia.
ー He suddenly disappears. ー
Yui: Leaving so soon? What a shame.
( Who were you talking about? Who did Laito-kun mean…? )
I suppose I should tell you, shouldn’t I? After all, you probably won’t be around anymore when the time finally comes to kill Him.
The man I love isーー
ー Ryuuto suddenly appears at the end of the hall. ー
Ryuuto: Cordelia.
ー Cordelia makes her way over to Ryuuto. ー
Yui: Aah, I was beginning to wonder where you’d run off too.
Will the driver and the limousine be arriving soon? I’d rather not spend any more time in this unflattering uniform than I must. 
Ryuuto: About that... Might I suggest we take a detour, tonight?
Yui: Oh? Has the limousine broken down?
Ryuuto: Not at all. I simply thought taking a trip into town, together, at this time of night would be quite, dare I say… romantic.
Yui: ( “Romantic”? No way… )
…Nfu. You know? I might just take you up on that. Lead the way.
━─┉┈◈ Time Skip ◈┈┉─━
ー They enter the train, a jingle sounding. ー
Announcement: The doors are now closing. Please take care.
Yui: My, my. What’s all this talk about the bustling train-stations in this country? It’s hardly busy at all.
( Of course not. Normal people don’t catch trains at this hour…! )
Let’s take a seat over there, shall we? We can sit as close together as we’d like.
ー They take a seat as the train begins moving. ー
Yui: ( It feels like forever since I’ve last been on a train… )
( I could almost forget everything, being sat here; This feeling of normality… It’s as if I’m back home with Papa… )
( Taking the train to school almost every-day and those sorts of things… I miss it. )
You could almost bring a tear to my eye. Ufufu.
Ryuuto: …You seem in quite high spirits, Mother. Did something happen?
Yui: Oh, you think so? Well, I quite enjoyed going undercover tonight, you know.
I wonder, how was it for you? Were you having trouble staying away between classes? And, using my proper name after so long?
Having to pretend we’re near-strangers… It takes you back, doesn’t it〜?
Ryuuto: I was far more concerned about bumping into those others…
Yui: Why aren’t I surprised? But there’s no need to worry… I think they caught on a little too quickly, and scamped off as quickly as they saw me.
I thought Laito – at least – would have been delighted at this reunion.
ー Ryuuto leans his head onto her shoulder. ー

“I’ve almost forgotten what it’s like, to feel so relaxed I could drift right off to sleep… Don’t move now, I’ve just gotten comfortable. That’s an order.”
Ryuuto: … …
Yui: ( …!! Again, with Ryuuto-san being so touchy… … )
ーーOh my… On any other occasion, I’d say for you to cut it out. But, I wonder… Is this your sudden signal for me to quiet down?
Ryuuto: It’s for the best if they’re distancing themselves from you. After all, I’m sure they would take whatever chance they could to… …
Yui: To, what? “Finish me off for good”?
I shouldn’t have to worry about that sort of thing. I’m sure you would certainly make sure to sacrifice yourself first.
Ryuuto: … …
Yui: ( Ryuuto-san would do that…? For you? )
Ryuuto: …You know, say what you will about this vessel whilst you’re inhabiting it, Mother, but she isn’t as uncomfortable as she looks.

“Fufu, it seems you’re body has become to cater well for your Master and your Master alone, wouldn’t you agree? Perhaps your duties ought to be upgraded to serve as my pillow, more often?”
Pwah… I trust you’ll wake me when we arrive?
Yui: Nfu, go ahead.
( No way… He’s really fallen asleep, already! )
These train seats are surprisingly comfortable, for how disgusting they look… At this rate, I might even fall asleep myself.
( ...W-Wait! The transit route on the wall…! )
What’s that? It shows the train lines.
( A-And this one goes right out of Kaminashi! )
( It’s no wonder these seats are so soft! This train makes long trips out of town; People would be napping on them constantly. )
( That means… )
Nfu, all this time, you could have left. Is that what you’re thinking?
( …A way back to Papa… )
( It was right in front of me… All this time… )

•would let you braid his hair (and he would definitely enjoy it)
•this man does not use 7 in 1 bodywash on his hair there's probably at least 3 different hair care products in his shower

Hi! I love your writing and was wondering if you’d pretty please do a matchup for me with Hazbin?
For starters, I’m bi with she/her pronouns. I have an odd sense of humor, sort of just saying whatever intrusive thought comes to my mind whenever it gets there. If you say something that reminds me of a SpongeBob scene, I will announce it to everyone.
I’m a college student studying computer science, so I be coding a lot. It’s really hard and really annoying and I hate it but I also love it. I’ll spend hours on hours working on programs and will cry real tears over bugs in code, but then will be laughing and jumping for joy once I fix the bugs and the code finally works. I take my work very seriously and sometimes take care of it before myself.
I bake, listen to music, smoke/drink here and there, and play a lot of video games. I don’t wanna brag but I’m really good at Nintendo games. I usually say ‘yes’ to any and all invites, even if I’m not sure I like the activity.
I tend to be sensitive, I overthink, and take other people’s feelings and emotions way too seriously. If I suspect someone is upset, I’ll do whatever I can to make them feel better. If I say something and later start to overthink of ways the other person could’ve taken offense to what I said, I’ll reach out to that person and apologize when the other person already forgot about what I’m even apologizing for.
For physical appearance, I’m on the shorter side (5’3), have medium length dark brown hair, have tattoos on my hand and a nose ring.
That’s all I got, thank you so much 🥰 🥰

Tumblr media
How you met was probably you found some of his ducks and decided to ask around, found out that they were his and return them to him
He was most likely embarrassed that he just left ducks out and that you found them so he decided to make you one to compesate
While he was making it he probably reminded you of a SpongeBob scene and you said it and that was when he fell head over heels for you
"You like Spongebob!? Me too!!"
He then learned that you did code and will watch you create things.
He'll also create his duckies alongside you and get excited when you compliment them
As for your work, if you go too far deep into it he'll make sure to pull you out of it as he wants you to take care of yourself
He'll try and distract you with some of your other hobbies
"Baking! Lets start baking!!"
When you try and teach him baking he probably gets everything all messed up and wrong most likely finding it hard to just follow the instructions that were given to him
When you finally fix a bug and start jumping he'll celebrate with you insisting that you guys go out and get something as a treat
You most likely helped him a lot through his breakup/divorce with Lilith
"I- I just don't get it"
And he adores you a lot for that but he tries not to let it get in the way of your relationship
As for video games... yeah he loses a bunch-

The Vacant Days (Puzzle IV: Encounters + Chaos)
Tumblr media
Fandoms: Professor Layton, Zatch Bell, The Dangers In My Heart, Kyousougiga and Toilet-bound Hanako-kun. Rating: T Summary: Suzume and Layton talked about Seitarou Takamine, After speaking with Kyoutarou, Luke encounters an unfamiliar person, Anna informs Kyoutarou about a Japanese pop idol, Suzume gets triggered when she sees a familiar person from her past while she's getting fresh air with Layton, and Flora, Marliyn, Amane, Shou, and Moeko are on the run from thugs and Luke and Flora discussed the weirdness happening in Steam Bison while he admitted something else to Flora. Notes: Well, shit. What the hell did I just write? Lmao. Keiran is a minor Villain OC. Words: 2,658
Tumblr media
Suzume and Layton were having tea while sitting on constance stool chairs at the countertop in the kitchen.
"Pardon me, Miss Mizuno," Layton said. "May you repeat the name of your friend's father?"
"Oh, his father's name is Seitarou Takamine," Suzume answered.
"Oh my. It is a small world, after all. I do know Mr. Takamine." Layton smiled.
"You do?!" Suzume exclaimed, her eyes widened in surprise.
"He and I are fellow archaeology professors and friends. We teach at different universities, but we do meet up for tea once in a while."
"Wow, it is a small world."
"Indeed it is." Layton sipped his breakfast tea. "I also met Mr. Takamine's son in person once. Kiyomarou, was it? A very intellectual boy, I must say."
"Yes, Takamine and I have known each other since middle school." Suzume touched her teacup, full of green tea. "Triton reminded me of Takamine. He is an intelligent boy, just like Takamine was when he was his age."
"I'm sure Luke would be pleased to hear it, Miss Mizuno. It is too bad he isn't here to hear your praise himself."
"He's on a case for the police." Suzume sighed. "Let me guess. Triton didn't want your assistance this time."
"Yes. I believe in Luke through. I know he'd solve the mystery in no time."
"Still," Suzume gazed into her green tea. "He told me he enjoyed solving mysteries with you. I wonder what made him change his mind to solve things solo."
"He just wants to prove to me that he is a gentleman, Miss Mizuno."
"It still isn't right, Mr. Layton. He's only fourteen years old."
"I understand your concern too well, Miss Mizuno." Layton put his hand on Suzume's shoulder. "Shall we have faith in Luke's abilities as a detective?"
"I guess. Triton and his gentlemen complex." Suzume groaned in disappointment.
"Now, now. Miss Mizuno. Don't be upset with Luke for his desire to be a gentleman." Layton chuckled.
"Ugh." Suzume slumped onto the counter.
Tumblr media
"Hey, Triton." Kyoutarou Ichikawa encountered Luke on the streets.
"Oh, hi, Mr. Ichikawa. How do you do?" Luke asked him politely.
"I'm heading to Japantown to meet Yamada and the others. Wait, you're done with your case already?"
"Yes. The mystery wasn't too challenging." Luke smiled proudly.
"Good for you, I guess. Look. Yamada and I will try to find a hotel. I know you've already told us you don't mind having us as your house guests, but I feel we're freeloading off you too much. We'll try to search for a hotel for Sekine and Adachi to get them off your back. Nothing personal, Triton."
"I understand," Luke smiled sadly. He enjoyed having Kyoutarou and his friends at his home, but he couldn't force them to stay at his house if they were getting too uncomfortable. "My house is getting overcrowded anyway."
"Cool. I'll let you know if we do find a room." Kyoutarou waved at him and walked onto the path to Japantown.
"Okay." Luke headed back home when he bumped into someone. "Oh, I'm sorry."
"Ah, no. I should be the one to apologize. I didn't watch where I was going." A young man with black hair and golden eyes smiled at him awkwardly. He wore a simple brown vast and brown dress pants. "I am searching for a hotel for me and my friends. This is our first time in this city."
"Oh! I can help you!" Luke tilted his cap happily. "I'm Luke Triton. I'm pleased to meet your acquaintance."
"I'm Kiyomarou Takamine. A Japanese university student majored in archaeology." Kiyomarou smiled politely.
'I hope there is a hotel with available rooms.' Luke thought.
Tumblr media
"Ichikawa! You wouldn't believe it!" Anna Yamada called out to him when he arrived at Japantown. Her eyes glimmered in adoration. They were inside a Japanese restaurant. "Megumi Ooumi, the pop idol, is here in Steam Bison!"
"Are you kidding me?" Kyoutarou gaped at her. "This city is a tourist attraction for sure!"
"And tourist attraction is also good for businesses and corporations." Tweeds slurped soba noodles.
"Well, that makes sense. Yamada, aren't you here for business?" Kyoutarou reminded her.
"Yes. I already did my photo shoots for a magazine. The huge paycheck is the only reason I bothered coming to America." Anna took a bite of sushi. "Have you seen Moeko or Adachi?"
"No. I thought those two were here with you." Kyoutarou raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, Miss Moeko and Mr. Adachi went off somewhere with Mr. Yugi and Marilyn," Tweeds said as he drank his cola soda. "Probably to goof around."
"Seriously?" Kyoutarou slumped his shoulders. "More trouble is the last thing we need."
"I'm sure they'll be fine, Ichikawa!" Anna grinned at him. "Sit down! There's plenty of food here!"
"Yeah, whatever." Kyoutarou sighed as he sat next to Anna and used chopsticks to grab a piece of meat from a plate.
Tumblr media
Layton, Suzume, and Flora decided to go out for fresh air and headed towards the plaza. They spotted a concert stage in the middle of the plaza, in front of Eggmuffin's workshop building. There was a small crowd of people.
"Hmm. Something interesting is happening over there." Layton rested his chin on his fingers.
"Yes. The stage wasn't there before." Flora said. "Huh? Who is that brunette woman? She looks like a foreigner."
"Huh?" Suzume looked at the young woman in a business navy blue suit, talking to a host. Suzume gasped in panic, her eyes twitching in sudden anxiety. "What the hell is she doing in Steam Bison?"
"What?" Both Layton and Flora looked over at Suzume in shock. "You know her, Miss Mizuno?"
"I do. I don't want to talk about Megumi Ooumi." Suzume sprinted out of the plaza.
"Miss Mizuno! Wait!" Layton called out to her.
Suzume did not believe it. Her former crush rival was here. If Megumi was here, it meant Kiyomaro might be here as well. After all, those two had always traveled together. Suzume never once informed Kiyomaro or Megumi that she'd be in America. They could visit any city or state in America, but they choose Steam Bison as their new traveling attraction.
'I don't get it! I don't feel anything towards Takamine anymore, so why does Ooumi's presence in Steam Bison bother me?!'
Suzume was very perplexed about her own feelings right now. She took shortcuts to get back to Luke's house while also needing to be cautious of any thugs in the alleys or corners of the streets.
'This is bullshit! In a time like this, when I am searching for my father!'
Tumblr media
"So, you are known as Detective Luke." Kiyomaro was impressed when he learned about Luke's reputation in Steam Bison. "Well, I thank you for your help. If there is anything I shall repay, please let me know."
"No." Luke shook his head, declining Kiyomaro's offer. "It's okay, Mr. Takamine. I'm glad to help!"
"Oh, if you say so." Kiyomaro chuckled. "You reminded me of an old friend of mine. She was so kindhearted. She never asked for anything in return. I missed her a lot. I wonder how is she doing?" Kiyomaro's expression softened as he smiled sadly.
"Oh, I hope you're reunited with your friend one day, Mr. Takamine." Luke smiled cheerfully.
"Thank you, Triton. I really appreciated your kindness." Kiyomaro smiled back. "Take care, Triton. I'll see you around, I guess!" Kiyomaro entered the hotel.
"Me too!" Luke waved at him and walked to a cafe to meet a client. And he was being followed by fans. 'Today is sure a busy day for me.'
Tumblr media
"We're back!" Anna called out as she, Kyoutarou, and Tweeds entered the Triton Manor. "Forgive us for the invasion!" She bowed her head.
"Welcome back!" Beth approached them with a kind smile. "It's entirely all right, dear."
"Well, we have bad news," Kyoutarou frowned in disappointment. "We haven't found a hotel. It turned out that they were booked for important people."
"I'm sorry to hear," Beth had a pity expression. "What a shame. I'm sure the Tritons will understand your situation."
"And we will keep buying the food and house supplies." Anna offered. "That's the least we can do for freeloading."
'Stop saying it so casually!' Kyoutarou thought, giving Anna an annoyed stare.
"That's so kind of you, dear. There's no need!" Beth chuckled softly. "I've prepared snacks and tea."
"Awesome! Thank you!" Anna ran to the kitchen.
"Geez. Yamada and her snacks." Kyoutarou said, sighing. "Thank you, Miss Beth." He headed towards the kitchen.
"Thanks!" Tweeds grinned as he followed Kyoutarou.
Beth just smiled brightly and went back to sweeping the corridor.
Tumblr media
"Oh shit!" Marilyn shouted in terror. "They spotted us! Run!"
"Get back here, ya little bratty shits!" A brown-haired thug named Keiran bellowed.
"So much for spying for a friend!" Moeko Sekine added in vexation.
"Awww, y'all angry because you got caught by a couple of youngsters?" Amane asked, currently amused with the angry gang of thugs.
"Don't make it worse, Yugi!" Moeko responded in a frightened tone.
"Yeah, man! What the hell?!" Shou grimaced at Amane.
"Don't let them get away! They had seen our activities and faces!" Keiran summoned his men to chase the witnesses.
"Damn it! We have to split up!" Marilyn suggested. "I wish Crow and Tweeds were here! They'd know what to do!"
"Good idea! I can distract the thugs while you girls get to a safe place!" Amane winked while giving Marliyn and Moeko a thumbs-up. "Leave it to me!" He grinned bravely.
"You are a freaking idiot!" Moeko disapproved of Amane's actions.
"Dude! I got a good idea! How about we throw dirty magazines at the creeps?!" Shou offered.
"You're the one to talk, Adachi!" Moeko glared at him.
"Enough!" Marilyn cut in. "Let the guys distract the thugs! See you guys!" Marilyn ran to a different path.
"Good luck, idiots!" Moeko ran to the opposite side of Marliyn's path.
"Hey, suckers!" Amane smirked, taking out a smoke ball. "Take this!" He tossed it at the thugs.
"And have this shit!" Shou took two bags of marbles from his pockets and released the marbles.
"AHHHHHHHH!" The thugs slipped on the marbles and fell on their backs.
"Hell yeah!"
"Victory!"
Amane and Shou paused to high-fived each other before they continued their escape from the thugs' hideout.
Tumblr media
It was night-time when Luke walked alone to his house. There was a live concert, but Luke had no interest in joining the cheerful crowd. He was too occupied with the mysteries and cases. He wanted to go home and rest in his bedroom. He hoped the live concert ended before he went to sleep. What was the mayor of Steam Bison thinking, inviting a foreign pop idol to perform in his city? Luke felt the flashing lights from the concert stage didn't mix well with the steam technology.
"I'm home," Luke announced when he arrived at his house.
"Welcome back, Luke." Layton emerged from the living room. "How were things today?"
"Things were fine," Luke grumbled. "I just hope whatever is happening at the plaza isn't permanent."
"Ah, yes. The sight of the foreign pop idol had upset Miss Mizuno."
"What?"
"She had shut herself in her guestroom."
Luke wasn't too happy. His clients had complained about how the influential people resumed the hotel rooms in advance, thus explaining why there weren't available rooms for tourists. It didn't make sense as Anna was a fashion model, so she and her group could have gotten their own hotel rooms. Something weird was going on.
"I'll go check on her." Luke walked to Suzume's guestroom and walked past A and Un, who were playing the goldfish card game while sitting on the floor, but he didn't acknowledge the boys. He arrived at Suzume's guestroom and knocked on the door. "Miss Mizuno. It's me, Luke."
"……"
There was no response from Suzume's bedroom.
"The Professor told me what happened earlier. Do you want to talk about it?"
"……"
"Well, there's no rush. If you're ready to talk, you know where to find me." Luke spoke to Suzume tenderly.
"She still isn't out?" Flora emerged from her guestroom. "I think she might be sleeping. Poor girl." Flora rested her chin on her hand. Her expression revealed sympathy. "You know, she looked terrified when she saw the pop idol."
"She did?"
"Yeah. Miss Mizuno also told us that she knew the pop idol."
"So, someone from her past, huh?"
"Something strange is going on in the city, Luke," Flora expressed uneasily. "I don't like it. At all."
"I started to think the same. The Serpent Phantoms and the Inferno Shadows were hired to intimidate Miss Mizuno and her father." Luke explained to Flora in a solemn matter. "By a man named Viktor."
"Wait a second. The name Viktor sounds familiar." Flora recalled. "Ah, yes. From one of the thugs when Miss Mizuno and I infiltrated a thugs hideout."
"That would explain why you and Miss Mizuno were in disguises."
"Wait, what?" Flora raised an eyebrow at Luke. "How did you even know, Luke?"
"Never mind that, Flora. What else did you and Miss Mizuno learn?"
"The name Viktor was the only information we got. After the thugs, Miss Mizuno searched the leader's room for clues. We found a safe box with a combination lock but couldn't solve it, so we left it there. It'd be too heavy for us to carry anyway."
"As I thought."
"Huh?"
"Miss Mizuno had Crow and Tweeds retrieve the safe box from the thugs' hideout."
"What the heck? Why would Miss Mizuno have Crow and Tweeds sneak back to get the safe box without informing you or the Professor first? She even asked me to keep it a secret. It doesn't make sense, Luke."
"Honestly, I have no idea, Flora." Luke narrowed his eyes in sorrow. "Maybe it is because Miss Mizuno distrusted me."
"No." Flora shook her head in disapproval. "Miss Mizuno was just looking out for you, Luke. Miss Mizuno didn't want to burden you with her personal issues."
"And her personal issues could have gotten you and her killed."
"That's true, Luke, but I wanted to help her." Flora placed her hand on her chest. "Don't think badly of Miss Mizuno. It was my choice to help her."
"I'm not thinking badly of her. I want her to trust me. I'm sick of her underestimating my skills as a detective just because I'm younger than her."
"Well, there is a four-year gap between you two."
"Like I cared?"
"What are you, attracted to her?"
There was a complete silence between the two friends. Luke flushed heavily. He downcasted his eyes shyly.
"…Kinda."
"What?!" Flora widened her eyes in shock. "Do you even realize what you are trying to say?!"
"Well, I did call her pretty when I first met Miss Mizuno."
"And you realize that we're still standing in front of her bedroom," Flora smirked at Luke in amusement. "What if she is awake and listening to our conversation?"
"Bloody shit!" Luke called out, his face totally red now. "Just forget what we talked about tonight, Flora! See you!" Luke speeded off to his bedroom and closed the door behind him.
Flora had a tiny grin as she walked back to the living room.
Tumblr media
"What in the actual hell?!" Myoue called out when he spotted Amane and Shou on the floor lazily. "Are you two okay?!"
"We're fine, Mr. Myoue." Amane grinned weakly. "We got those bastards."
"Yes," Shou added.
"What are you fool even talking about?!" Myoue demanded. "Did you brats get into trouble again?!"
"Obviously." Koto frowned, her arms folded. "I'm too tired for this shit. Good night." She left.
"Welcome back, losers," Moeko smirked while drinking lemonade.
"I'm glad you gentlemen are safe," Layton said with an awkward smile. "Well, I shall retire for the night. Good night."
"Good night, Mr. Layton." Everyone in the living room said to him.

Chapter Thirty-Two: Direct Sunlight
Tumblr media
Summary: Shōyō Hinata loves volleyball! There is no doubt that all he really thinks about is volleyball. His sister, however, isn’t the same way. Sakura is ready to start her first year of high school at Karasuno with her twin brother and doesn’t really want to do anything, unlike Shōyō. Though she can’t help it when she gets dragged into the antics of the volleyball club.
Word Count: 9379 
Blog Masterlist | Red Herring Masterlist | Last Chapter | Next Chapter
A/n: New chapter, let's go! I'm finally back from my long vacation which means more time to write and more time to stream. I was a little sad that my parents told me not to bring my laptop with me when we went to Florida, but I understand. Had I been given all that time with nothing to do with a long vacation I would have just written as much I could lmao Still didn't mean I wasn't sad about it. So I've finally gotten this chapter done WOOO hope ya'll like it :)
---
“YOU DO REALIZE THAT YOU HAVE FINALS next month, right?” Takeda asked, focusing on the four idiots, “Right?” From the way that they looked away from him, it seems like they forgot and definitely aren’t prepared. “So, I think you know what I’m getting at, but if you fail any subjects… you will have to take supplementary classes.”
At the reminder of that, panic started to set in for them. Nishinoya and Tanaka took off sprinting, thinking that running away would help their case. Which it certainly wouldn’t.
“Hey! There’s nowhere to run!” Daichi shouted out as they tried to escape, “Ennoshita, catch them!”
The other second-year stepped into action, “Got it!” He grabbed the two by the backs of their shirts before they could even get a taste of freedom. At this point, he’s become an expert at wrangling these two idiots around.
Shōyō was in complete shock, “Fail… Fail… What counts as a failing grade?” 
“That’s your question?” Suga blinked at the poor, confused, and panicking boy.
Besides them, Yamaguchi stared at their frozen setter and started to worry, “Kageyama’s not breathing!” The poor setter boy was as stiff as stone as his mind was blank. This seemed to be the worst thing ever for him.
“Since we said we were going to continue club activities, we have to at least make decent grades.” Suga stated one of the most obvious facts. Yes, in order to stay in a club all of them had to prove that they could balance their grades and the club in a healthy manner. If not… then they would have to solely focus on their school work. Any normal student would know that, but not these volleyball idiots, apparently.
An amused smile was starting to grow on Tsukishima’s face as he watched them freak out. Growing to enjoy how those four were squirming  at the reminder of their grades he said, “You shouldn’t fail.” 
“Nope,” Ennoshita agreed while holding up the backs of Nishinoya and Tanaka’s shirts.
Shōyō jumped over to Takeda desperately, “M-Maybe if we beg the vice principal…” 
“Why don’t you try really hard and not fail the exam?” Tsukishima asked.
Takeda sighed heavily, “Even if we get the vice principal’s permission, if you have to take supplementary classes, those will take priority.” 
The dream of going to the Tokyo camp was crumbling right in front of Shōyō. He turned to Ukai and jumped at him, “Coach!” 
“W-Well, this isn’t something you’re gonna be able to avoid as a student.” Ukai said shakily.
“But…”
“You need willpower!” He tried to motivate the boy, “You need to believe you can do it!”
“Mind over matter?! No, that’s fine.” Shōyō bowed, “Please teach me!”
“Hinata,” Ukai grunted, “I didn’t really want to bring this up, but do I look like someone who got good grades?” Well, no one was going to answer that since… he didn’t really look the part.
Endo shrugged his shoulders, “looks can be deceiving?” Though Ukai just gave all of them a hollow expression since it didn’t seem like that statement applied in this situation.
Suga stepped up to the upset boy and did his best to reassure him, “Hinata, I’m sure you don’t have to worry this much about it.”
“I’ve never had a double-digit score on any of my quizzes.” He stated, “Will I still be okay?” 
“Whoa, that’s actually impressive!” Endo exclaimed in wonder. He’s had his fair share of bad grades, but never in the single digits! That just seemed like an impossibility, did he even answer any of the questions? “You’re definitely screwed!” That just seemed to cause Shōyō to freeze up even more.
“Huh?” Suga blinked at that piece of information. Behind him he then noticed Nishinoya and Tanaka praying for a miracle. “Hey! Stop it with the bodhisattva faces, you two!”
The boys then started to wail in anguish. Endo was both amused and getting a headache from their screams of terror. As they freaked out, a few boys basked in the chaos, and others stared worryingly, Takeda had started to mutter to himself in a trance, “They can do it if they try. They can do it if they try…”
Ukai slightly panicked at the disoriented expression on Takeda’s face, “Sensei, pull yourself together!”
There were only two who seemed to be getting joy out of this turn of events. Tuskishima was one of them as he smirked evilly at the distress now swarming around the gym. He relished in the discourse surrounding him, “Ah, the sound of anguish.” 
Endo also seemed amused with the entire situation. Which shouldn't be a surprise since it’s been shown time and time again that he revels in situations such as this. “God, the way they're squirming over this is oh so entertaining.” He chuckled loudly, “the panic is almost refreshing.”
“Get a hold of yourselves!” Daichi exclaimed, attempting to rally all the boys together, “We still have time until exams start. There’s no way Karasuno could bring our best without these four idiots! Not a chance!” They all stared at him in slight confusion as the four boys did their best to pull themselves together. Kageyama was still shell-shock as Shōyō had to hold him up.
“I don’t know if I’m flattered or insulted…” Tanaka trailed off.
“We’re gonna do this…” Daichi said menacingly, “We’re all gonna go to Tokyo.”
---
Getting the boys to calm down took a little bit. Though Daichi and Suga were able to corral everyone back to the club room to get ready to leave. Ukai had to help a still disoriented Takeda back into the school since the teacher was still anxious over the four unprepared boys. So they all finally got into the club room as Daichi grabbed Shōyō, Nishinoya, Kageyama, and Tanaka to kneel in front of him for a scolding. 
“Listen up, you guys,” He started to say, “The one thing that you’re going to promise me right now… …is that you will not fall asleep in class.”
Asahi glanced over, “That’s the first priority?”
“Staying up late through sheer willpower. Screwing up in your classes and in club. It’s all absolutely unreasonable!”
They all muttered, “Right…”
“We’re heading out,” Tuskishima said as he and Yamaguchi made their way out.
“R-Right.” They all called out, “Good job.”
Suga looked at his underclassmen with a soft, reassuring smile, “It’ll be all right. I mean, you guys passed your high school entrance exams.”
“Suga-san!” Tanaka stared at their upper-classmen in awe.
Though Suga’s smile took on a more menacing undertone, “If you fall asleep in class, you’d better be prepared for the consequences.” 
Endo slung his bag over his shoulder, “I’m rooting for you guys,” he said, surprising a few of his friends. But he ended up just shrugging his shoulders with a smug smile, “I’m betting a solid 15,000¥ on you failing.”
It’s not that he thinks the others aren’t smart… They just weren’t book smart. Studying may not come easy to a lot of people, even he can struggle with it. However, these four were the biggest volleyball idiots that he knows, so who knows if they’ll be able to study right. Volleyball seemed to be one of the only things on their mind, so why not make a bet with a high chance of getting some money. 
“Who did you make a bet like that with?!” Nishinoya shouted in annoyance. How dare the rich boy flaunt his wealth over them but also have doubt in their ability to succeed. Endo casually just pointed to a sheepish Asahi. That shocked them as Nishinoya yelled at his friend in surprise and disappointment, “Asahi!??”
The poor guy started to sweat under the heated stares of his friends. “I-I bet that you guys would do good!” 
Endo slung his shoulder over the nervous Asahi as he started to sweat about joining in the bet. Asahi did his best to explain things through his stuttering words, but Endo just started to move them towards the exit. Endo sang as the pair left, “I’m ready to win my bet~!”

Yet another uneventful day, Sakura thought to herself as she exited the school building. Really the only thing that wasn’t that boring for her was when Kiyoko came to the first-years talking to them about finding a future manager. Her classes were nothing to really focus on since they were quite easy today and more or less just review for the upcoming exams.
Exams are by no means any students favorite thing, they just create stress and issues for some kids. However, while Sakura didn’t think that she enjoyed them, they weren’t as stress-inducing for her as say her brother. Well, that’s not a fair comparison, her brother is not a studious student to begin with. She has no doubt that he’ll be coming to her for help with studying. Her brother can be clever, but by no means is he book  smart. They always joked that Sakura was the one to get the brains while Shōyō got all the brawns when they were born.
She made her way across the courtyard to where she and Shōyō kept their bikes. Both of them were still there, so that meant Sakura would have to wait for him to get out of practice. Though she didn’t have to wait long when there was the loud sound of Shōyō yelling at the sight of her. 
“IMOUTO!”
Sakura nearly jumped at the loud shout, “Huh?” She turned around to see that Shōyō was running up to her with Kageyama quickly behind him. They definitely were racing over to her, but she would expect nothing less.
Once they got close enough, Shōyō instantly grabbed her in a tight hug and started to beg, “Please, help us study so we can go to Tokyo!” The puppy-dog eyes that he was flashing her had already sealed the deal since there was no way Sakura could say no to that. Even Kageyama, who looked less than happy to be in front of her, had a feeling of desperation around him. Sakura blinked at the pair for a moment, before smirking lightly as she realized why they were like this. 
“So you can’t go to the camp unless your grades are good?” It’s the only assumption that she could make. The team has a camp coming up, exams are soon, and she knows supplementary tests would be the same day as the camp. So it’s a logical assumption to make.
Kageyama scowled, “Don’t sound so smug.” He hated having to ask people for help like this. Practically, begging her for any help at all so they don’t fall behind in their beloved sport. Sure, he’s fine to ask someone to help study. He may be prideful but when it comes to his studies he’s okay with asking for some help. However, when it comes to Sakura, he just knows she’s going to make a big deal about this. Which she most definitely was.
“Watch your tone, king.” Sakura tutted coyly, “I have no problem helping Shō-nii, but I have no obligation to help you.” There was no doubt that she was going to help her brother study, as a sister it was sort of in her job description. However, the King was a different story. They never really see eye-to-eye on things, and have a rocky relationship as it is. So why would she want to 
Shōyō jumped up at that fact, “So you’ll help us?!” His sister truly is a godsend!
“Say, please.” She said before placing a finger on Shōyō’s lips to stop him from her brother begging, “Not you.” Sakura turned her leer onto Kageyama, “You.”
Kageyama narrowed his eyes on her. Yup, there she goes. Oh how infuriating it is to see her holding this over his head. Though if he wanted to get to the camp, he was going to need all the help he could get. One of their top classmates was definitely a good idea. Though why it had to be someone like Sakura, he would never know. He gritted his teeth, as if it pained him to say it, “please.”
She smiled condescendingly, “All right. I’ll help.” It seemed like that was satisfactory enough for her. She didn’t really expect some extravagant groveling from him or anything, so this was the best that she was going to get. “Though I am a rigorous tutor. I will make sure that you learn what you need to do no matter what, got it.” The two nodded in agreement. Though Shōyō was the only one that knew what he was signing up for with Sakura’s tutoring. “Good, but no complaining about how I tutor you.” Either they get the help that they can from her the way she can give it, or nothing else.
Kageyama’s scowl seemed to deepen at her declaration, but he couldn’t argue. He scoffed at her before turning to lead them down the mountain. “Whatever.” Yeah, she certainly is an infuriating girl.
“So? I’m guessing a good time to study would be during break time.” Sakura suggested as she and Shōyō followed after him.
Shōyō nodded his head rapidly, “yes! And at home too please!”
“Yea, yea I know. Though not him.” Sakura pursed her lips and nodded her head at Kageyama. “I’m not letting him anywhere near my room.”
Shōyō’s eyebrows furrowed, “It’s our room.”
“When I’m helping you study, it’s mine.”
“Unfair!”
The trio traveled down the hill, talking over their schedule of studying and good places for it. Though there was one thing that popped up while they were talking. Well, more like someone. Tsukishima. Sakura wasn’t pleased to hear that the two dummies also wanted to get help from him. Though she wouldn’t totally blame them for it. They needed all the help that they were going to get, and if she can’t help them in a certain subject, then someone else might. It just so happened that someone else was most likely going to be Tsukishima. How annoying. Speaking of which, they caught sight of the blond beanstalk and Yamaguchi heading home themselves. Ah, a perfect opportunity to ask him to help out.
“Tsukishima!...” Shōyō shouted out, startling everyone at how loud he was. Though he made sure to add on the honorifics, “san Help us study. Please.”
“What?” Tsukishima blinked, “No.” What else were they supposed to say? That he would outright agree with helping them. He doesn’t like them all too much, so what would he be gaining helping them at all?
Though they weren’t going to take no for an answer. Shōyō continued to beg, “Just, like, less than an hour each day! Or tell us how to study…”
Yamaguchi looked between them and offered a small shrug of his shoulders, “It wouldn’t hurt to do that a couple minutes before or after club.”
Sakura let out a small laugh, though it sounded more like a scoff than anything, “Doubt he’d be kind enough to help out anyway.”
Tsukishima narrowed his eyes at her, “And you are?”
“Looks like you’ve learned something new once again.” She asked with a false, sweet smile.
Tsukiahima just rolled his eyes at her. Her sarcasm was not that appreciated. Oh, how he could so go without having to hear it. “Hey, I don’t think it’s fair that you’re having the shrimp ask for the both of you.” He asked smugly as Kageyama had yet to say anything. Just like with Sakura, Tsukishima was acting the same way “What do you have to say, big guy?”
“Kageyama, ask him,” Shōyō urged him.
The setter was having a flashback to just a few minutes ago when Sakura did the same thing. It was unsettling how similar the two were, he thought. Begrudgingly Kageyama grumbled under his breath, “Please teach us.” Though it wasn’t like anyone could hear him all too well.
“What?” Tsukiahima bent down and obnoxiously cupped his ear.
“Please… teach us how to study.”
“I don’t think I quite heard you.”
Kageyama then intensely bowed down, his head nearly touching the ground as he shouted, “Teach us how to study!”
The door to the Sakanoshita Market slid open violently, startling the teens as Ukai yelled at them, “Shut the hell up! You’re disturbing the neighbors!”
“S-Sorry!” Shōyō and Kageyama stuttered out.
Tsukishima grumbled, “Why am I getting yelled at?”
Once Ukai had returned to his shop, the teens realized it was definitely time to go home. It was getting late, and Sakura knew they needed to get home before their mother started to worry.  “Let’s just go, I’m hungry.” Sakura said as she mounted her bike, “See ya, Tadashi.” She swiftly started to pedal away, only saying bye to the only one she tolerated.
The boy smiled at her, “bye, Sakura!” Though his smile became slightly awkward when he noticed Tsukishima glaring at him.
---
The quiet day was a perfect time for some studying, which is what Sakura had told her brother. Well, she gave an excuse for every day being a good day for studying. No matter how annoyed or put off Shōyō might have been about missing out on practicing outside, he knew that she was just doing this in his best interest. Though He had to say that the studying that she was doing was… helpful. Yes, she was quite demanding of him with her tutoring, she was working with him to help him as much as she could. At this point, Sakura is aware of Shōyō ‘s strengths and weaknesses and was doing her best to help him strengthen them while also overcoming or avoiding his weaknesses.
So that’s where Shōyō found himself at the desk in their shared bedroom, his notebook opened up as he copied some notes that Sakura had given him. Sakura was also in the room, working on her own studying and homework while keeping an eye on Shōyō to keep him on task. She’s aware her brother could get distracted easily, so making sure he isn’t going to get absorbed in something else.
She laid on her stomach, her books out in front of her on her bed as she was finishing up the last of her math homework. Not only that but she had to start coming up with some ideas about what she would do for the next gallery. Since Shimada had hinted at them talking about it for the next club meeting.
Ever since the first gallery that they had, Sakura had found herself enjoying the galleries and exhibitions that they’ve had. Some were small and just the photography club. Others were in collaboration with other clubs like the Art club, which usually had more people who came to see it. The photography club was small and not that interesting for outsiders, in all honesty. Though the art club, well, everyone knew the art club and loved to see it. Perhaps because there were a lot more mediums of art within the club than just one like photography. 
The sound of a phone buzzing went off. Sakura raised an eyebrow at it, knowing that it wasn’t her phone since it’s on silent. So of course it was Shōyō’s. However, her eyes narrowed since she had been adamant to him about keeping his phone on silent and away from him to minimize distractions. Since she is well aware of how he could be easily distracted.
Shōyō looked at his phone to see whatever text he had gotten. It certainly seemed to fill him up with excitement since it was great news. Talking to Kenma was quite exciting, especially about the upcoming training camp. Though his determined and motivated emotions were stunted as he was hit on top of the head. Sakura scowled behind him and quickly snatched his phone out of his hands in his disoriented state.
“What’d I say,” She harshly said, “no phones while studying!”
Shōyō whined, “It’s Kenma.” As if that was going to justify his disregard of one of her rules for his studying.
Their door then opened up as their little sister came bounding into the room. Her bright smile lit up the room as the childish energy consumed her siblings. There was no doubt that she wanted to play. She bounced around happily, completely dispelling the brewing argument between the twins. If it’s one thing that Natsu is a master at, it dissipates any discourse between the two. She smiled largely at the two, “Ni-chan, onee-chan, let’s play jump rope!”
Their mother then called from down the hall, “Nat-chan, the twins are busy studying.”
She pouted, “Aw…”
“Come on Nat-chan,” Sakura sighed while climbing off of her bed. “I’ll play with you.” The last thing that she’d want to see is her little sister upset about not getting to play with someone. Besides, she quite likes getting to loosen up a bit and play games with Natsu. She’s quite the adorable girl, and Sakura adores her.
The little girl cheered, “Yay!”
As Natsu skipped as she started dragging Sakura away by her hand, Sakura turned to her brother, “You focus on studying,” she waved his phone around in her hand, “I’m taking this.” So she was led off by their little sister to join in on some jump rope while Shōyō was left to study.
Though just as Sakura and Natsu were making their way outside they heard their brother shout out, “All right! I’m gonna go to Tokyo!”
“Shōyō, be quiet!” Their mother scolded him. The two sisters shared a look, Sakura rolling her eyes lightly while Natsu giggled.
---
When it came to be the next day, Sakura walked alongside Yachi as they headed towards the third-year classrooms. It took a bit of convincing to get Yachi out of their classroom and on their journey to find Kiyoko. Sakura knew that Yachi was anxious about talking to their upperclassman about the position in the club, but she was hoping that she could work her way through it. Everyone has their vices and flaws, but she had a feeling that Yachi would at least give it a chance. 
“Yachi. It’ll be okay.” Sakura said, staring at her friend in worry. The poor girl was fidgeting around to the point that Sakura was worried that she was going to pass out or something.
“But it’s a third-year! A friend of yours!” Yachi exclaimed, earning some looks for the other kids they walked passed. “What if I say something wrong and then she doesn’t want to talk to me and then you decide that I embarrassed you so much that you don’t want to be my friend anymore and-”
Sakura cut her off, “Yachi, that isn’t what's going to happen.”
“Are you sure?” The girl asked as she nervously bit her nails.
“Yes.” She said strongly and let just a small smile to grace her lips, “I’m not going to stop being your friend, all right. It will take quite a bit for that to happen.” Since Yachi was one of her only friends in her class, it wasn’t like she was going to drop her over something simple like this. Sakura certainly wasn’t shallow like that.
Yachi blinked owlishly, “Oh, okay.” She was well aware that Sakura really only had her as a friend in their class. Though that didn’t mean she thought Sakura would leave her if she messed it up with this third-year manager. Yachi values talking to Sakura every day and sharing lunch and their breaks with her, she definitely would not want to lose that friendship.
“There she is.” Sakura said as she walked over to the beautiful third-year. “Good morning, Kiyoko.”
Her senpai smiled at them, “Good morning, Sakura.”
“This is my friend Yachi Hitoka.”
The beautiful teen smiled widely at the younger girl, “It’s lovely to meet you.” 
It seemed like Yachi had become star-struck now with Kiyoko looking down at her. Though once she realized that she had to give some sort of greeting she stuttered out, “N-Nice to m-meet y-you!” Which then prompted her to give a deep bow, which startled Kiyoko at how sudden it was.
Kiyoko glanced over at Sakura for a moment at the strange greeting from Yachi. The orange-haired girl just shrugged her shoulders at her senpai. So Kiyoko just continued, “Sakura mentioned that you were looking for a club to join.”
Yachi nodded her head stiffly, “Uh, oh, yeah!” Sakura just raised an eyebrow at Yachi’s nervous behavior. She knows that her friend has difficulty with her anxiety about certain situations and overthinking a lot. Sakura just hoped that if Yachi decides to take this on, it could help her work through it. She knew sometimes to work through something you can put yourself in certain situations out of your comfort zone.
“The boy’s volleyball club will need to have a new manager next year since I am graduating.” Kiyoko explained as she handed Yachi the manager  “This year they did quite an amazing job during their games. Even at the Inter-High prelims, they were neck-and-neck with Aoba Johsai, who actually made it to the finals.” Sakura was half listening to Kiyoko since she already knew this. However, she noticed the far off look on Yachi’s face, which caused her to raise an eyebrow. Was she paying attention? Sakura wondered. “Though we do have quite a few troublemakers, but I’m sure you’ll find that they’re a team you want to root for. So, why don’t we try a trial membership?”
“Huh?!” Yachi jumped, getting dragged out of her thoughts since she zoned out during everything Kiyoko said. She nervously shouted out, “Sure!”
Kiyoko smiled widely, “Really?! Thank you so much!” She exclaimed while grabbing her hand, “Then I’ll come by again after school.”
As Kiyoko skipped away happily at the new development, Sakura looked over at Yachi and her dazed expression. Sakura deadpanned, “Did you hear anything she said?”
“...no,” Yachi coughed out sheepishly.
Sakura shook her head in amusement, “Don’t worry, I’ll catch you up, come on.” So Sakura started retelling what Kiyoko’s had said as they headed back into their classroom.
---
Kiyoko had come to collect Sakura and Yachi once classes were over. While Sakura could have easily brought Yachi there on her own, she knew that Kiyoko wanted to give Yachi a good impression and explain more things on their walk over. Not only that but Kiyoko is just an extremely kind girl.
All throughout their short walk towards the gym, Yachi was nervously fidgeting with her hands, but listening attentively to every word Kiyoko said. Sakura walked beside them while keeping quiet and letting Kiyoko take charge of the conversation. After all, Kiyoko was the one who had to teach Yachi what she would need to know to be a manager, if Yachi took the position. 
Eventually, the trio of girls made it to the gym entrance. Sakura made sure to give Yachi her silent support through looks and gestures, which seemed to work just slightly. Yachi was not exactly an anxious mess over meeting new people, or else their first meeting would have been a bit more awkward, Sakura knew. However, with the job of a manager possibly hanging over her, Yachi was just over thinking what was going to happen if she messed up at any point or disappointed Kiyoko.
Soon enough they made it to the door of the gym. The team was already practicing their passing and spikes when the girls got there. Though there was no way that any of them were going to miss Kiyoko’s appearance. Though once they noticed her they also noticed the two others along with her. While they weren’t surprised to see Sakura there, the blonde-haired girl was someone new. That was definitely causing Yachi to tremble just slightly, having to be around all these new boys and how intimately tall some of them were.
“So you found a new person!” Shōyō exclaimed.
“What’s up?” Tanaka inquired.
Nishinoya joined in on the questioning, “What’s going on?” 
Kiyoko glanced at the nervous Yachi, “Um, she’s joining the club on a trial basis as the new manager…”
Now with all of the boys starting to gather around the girls, Yachi stumbled out a greeting, “I-I’m Yachi Hitoka!”
“Seriously?” Suga said happily, “That’s awesome!”
Shōyō was bouncing around at all of this new news, “Nice job, Shimizu-senpai!”
Asahi bent down to greet the new coming, “You’re a first-year?”
Though that only made Yachi panic a bit since she thought Asahi was not a student but instead an older man. She stuttered out, “I-I’m in Class 1-5, sir!”
Daichi made sure to put himself between them, in case Yachi becomes even more scared, “Asahi, back up a bit.”
“Huh?” Though Asahi was a bit oblivious to why he had to do so.
“You’re scaring the poor girl,” Endo chuckled while patting his friend on the back in sympathy.
It seemed like Nishinoya and Tanaka were more than intrigued to see the new girl. Though their way of expressing this, just staring at her intensely, was doing nothing but scaring Yachi just slightly. “Hey!” Suga exclaimed and pushed the two away. “Don’t stare like that! It’s rude.”
Even if he had been pulled back slightly to not frighten Yachi too much, Asahi was still excited with this new development. “Thank goodness. Now there’ll be a manager next year, too.”
Shōyō nodded, “Yes!” Though that just caused Yachi to jump slightly in nervousness.
“Sh-She hasn’t actually joined yet,” Kiyoko was quick to correct them, “I asked her suddenly today, and before work with the membership committee, so she’s just dropping in to say hi today.”
Yachi bowed her head to the group, “I-It’s a pleasure to meet you!”
“Same!” All the boys around her respectfully did the same. Though that just caused Yachi’s nervousness to spike even more as she jumped. Sakura made sure to place a hand on Yachi’s shoulder, hoping to calm the poor girl down just a bit. She just wanted to make sure that her friend knew that she was there to try to calm her down if she needed it.
Kiyoko stepped in, “Could you not surround her until she’s more comfortable?”
Sakura’s eyebrows furrowed, “You guys are creepy when girls are around.” It was almost like they had never been around too many girls at one time. She knew that a few of them were a bit… dumbfounded when it came to girls, but it shouldn’t be too bad. It made her feel protective of the only friend from her class. After all, if they scared her off, what if Yachi decided to avoid her or something. So she did her best to subtly stand in front of Yachi as she rolled her eyes at them, “Please don’t scare away my friend.”
Tsukishima decided to make a jab, “You have a friend?” Which only earned him a deadpanned glance from her and nothing more. Not like she was going to give him any real acknowledgement. Which ultimately frustrated Tsukishima just a bit, but he kept himself quiet for the time being.
So Yachi saw that as an opening to leave the gym for the day. She smiled politely at the new group of people, though it did seem a bit strained, and left, “S-Sorry for the intrusion.”
“Shimizu.” Daichi said to their manager, “So you were looking for a new manager…”
“Yeah. I didn’t think we got enough response when we tried to find people in April.” The third-year girl said, “I thought it was important to find someone to carry on as manager, especially with Karasuno getting so much stronger.”
Her inspirational words and determined expression, the boys all bursted out into tears at her dedication to the team. As they all shouted out to her in awe.
“Shimizu-san!”
“Kiyoko-san!”
---
“So have you thought about it?” Sakura asked as she slurped on some ramen. It was now lunch time the day after Yachi was introduced to the team. Sakura wouldn’t admit it, but she was intrigued, to say the least, about whether Yachi was actually going to join the team as a manager. While on one hand, she wouldn’t want to subject Yachi to having to deal with some of the rambunctious boys of the team, on the other hand, Sakura would like to have another girl around the team. Sakura is around the team plenty so she figured that her presence would help alleviate some of the nerves.
Once Sakura had met up with her brother yesterday, he wanted to know everything about Yachi. He already knew that Sakura had a friend in her class and general information about her, but certainly wanted to know more. It was slightly annoying for Sakura, at least at the beginning. Though after a while she liked getting to talk to someone about her friendship. After all, Sakura doesn’t have too many people to talk to about her relationships besides the photography club to a certain extent, Yachi and her brother.
Sakura just kind of really hoped that Yachi was swinging a bit more into accepting the position of manager. Since she was around the team so much, it would be a nice change of pace to have someone new there.  Having another friend, who Sakura actually enjoyed being around, on the team was a guarantee that Sakura would have more fun while around the club. Not to say that she didn’t, but with the likes of the annoying Endo, infuriating Tsukishima, and the troublesome quartet, it would be a nice balance to have someone sane on the team. Not only that, but it meant the team had another supporter. They didn’t have too many people who came to watch the games and cheer Karasuno on, so perhaps having an added person, especially a manager, could help with the team morale. At least, Sakura hoped so.
Sipping on her juice box, Yachi shrugged her shoulders, “I have. Though I’m not sure. It seems like a confusing job to take on.”
“It’s not that confusing,” Sakura said, “you just have to wrangle in those volleyball-idiots from time to time.”
“But I don’t know much about volleyball.” Her eyes started to become wide as some thoughts bombarded her, “What help would I be to the team? What If I get something wrong and then it ends up with the team losing or something? I could never face them again!”
Noticing that Yachi was starting to become overwhelmed, Sakura made sure to attempt to calm her down. “Hey, nothing like that would happen, trust me.” She said, already trying to stop any sort of overthinking that Yachi might have about this. “If you don’t know about volleyball the team will happily teach you what you need to know, I’m sure of it. I can even help you if you need.”
Despite not being a volleyball player, or really a part of a team, Sakura knew plenty about volleyball. While her brother played the sport, he wasn’t exactly too versed on what rules are in certain situations. So she took time to learn what was important. The rules, the positions, and anything else she deems necessary. 
“You will?” Yachi asked, appearing to be genuinely touched that Sakura would help her out. She’s known Sakura only for a little while, and knows that she doesn’t always reach out to people or to help them, so it was touching to realize that Sakura would help her with this.
Sakura coughed lightly, a bit embarrassed now that Yachi had become so sappy all of a sudden. “Obviously.”
“Yachi-san!” A sudden shout broke the pair from their conversation. Coming into the room was Sakura’s brother and the gloomy setter, to the surprise of the two girls. “Pardon us!” Shōyō said as he came into the room, “I’m Hinata Shōyō from Class 1! This is Kageyama.”
The setter nodded his head in greeting, “Hey.”
“H-Hey,” Yachi stuttered out after an unseen internal panic.
Sakura eyed the two of them while placing down her lunch, “What are you two here for?”
“We need help studying,” her brother explained. “Imouto, can you help us right now!”
She shrugged her shoulders, “I guess, though I was in the middle of a conversation with Yachi.”
“Oh, Yachi-san, do you like studying?” Shōyō asked her eagerly.
She just shrugged her shoulders, “I don’t hate it.”
“Could you teach me this English?” He asked her, “You should ask her, too, Kageyama!”
Kageyama gruffly said, “Please teach us.” Sakura has to admit that it was easier for him to ask Yachi for help and not her.
“If we fail any tests next month, we won’t be able to go to the Tokyo away games,” Shōyō explained, “so we’ve been having the tall guy with glasses named Tsukishima help us…” An annoyed expression crawled onto their faces as they thought back to Tsukishima and his methods  of teaching. “But lately, he’s getting irritated because Kageyama and I are so stupid.”
Kageyama grumbled, “I’m not scared of him.”
“Fooled me,” Sakura commented sarcastically, earning a glare from the boy.
Shōyō continued, “But it’d be better for someone to teach us nicely!”
“And I don’t?” Sakura asked, slightly offended.
Kageyama deadpanned at her, “You are only slightly less condescending than Tsukishima.” Sakura would have contradicted him, if she didn’t think that it was slightly true. Though she still hated having been compared to the bitchy blonde giant.
“I-If I’m good enough…” Yachi stuttered out.
“Really?!” Shōyō jumped into her face happily.
“Don’t feel pressured to help these two out,” Sakura said reassuringly to her friend. “They’re already getting a lot of help, if they fail now, it’ll be a miracle fueled by their own stupidity.” 
Yachi sweat slightly at Sakura’s insult. She hasn’t really seen how Sakura interacts with her brother, since this is only the second time meeting him. However, she could definitely feel that Sakura was a bit more on the harsher side with him for certain things. She just slowly nodded her head to Shōyō, “Yeah. But I wonder if I’ll be able to teach in a nicer way than the tall guy with glasses…”
The two boys in front of them shook their heads as Shōyō said, “You definitely don’t have to worry about that.”
So the group all gathered around Yachi’s desk. The girl was sharing her notebook with the boys who were more than happy to look it over and copy it down. It was certainly very organized. A bit different from how Sakura organized her notes, a tad bit more color to it as well. Dare the boys say they were even easier to follow.
“Wow!” Shōyō exclaimed, “I see! Wow!”
Yachi became bashful as the boys gushed over how organized her notes were, “Oh, it’s nothing…”
“Your notebook’s really easy to look at, Yachi-san.” Shōyō praised, “You’re great at drawing, too!”
“My mom works at a design firm, so she’s always been picky about things like this.” She then started to write in his notebook, “Oh, if you leave a space here, it’ll be easier to fill in later. Also, if you limit the number of colors you use, it won’t get confusing. And… I’m sorry! I was writing all over your notebook!”
Though Shōyō wasn’t put off at all, he was intrigued with her work, “Oh, I see… You’re amazing!”
“I-It’s n-nothing… nothing…”
Even through her silence, Sakura was watching the boys copy the notes. Though it seemed like they weren’t copying everything to a T, at least in her opinion. “You’re writing it wrong, King.”
“Eh?” Kageyama’s eyebrow twitched at her speaking up.
She took his pencil from him, to his chagrin, and started to write, “this is a compound sentence, so there’s a comma.” The boy just grumbled under his breath before snatching the pencil back from her. Sure, she wasn’t as bad as Tsukishima to a degree, but she still talked down to him at times like an idiot, even if she was being somewhat helpful.
Yachi nervously chuckled at the atmosphere around Kageyama growing gloomy, “Sakura is a bit better at English than me, her notes would probably be better.”
“I gave them my notes,” Sakura pointed out, “but I’m starting to wonder if they actually look them over to study. At least there’s no oral exam, or they’d be screwed.”
Kageyama glared at her, her obvious superiority about her English skills looming over them. He mumbled, “And you wouldn’t?”
She deadpanned, “No.”
“You can speak English?” Yachi asked with a tilted head. She knew that Sakura was intelligent, but she didn’t know anyone at the school who was completely fluent in English.
“Yes.”
Her eyes widened, “Fluently?”
Sakura just shrugged her shoulders, “My English is good enough to get me by.”
“Ne, but imouto,” Shōyō started to say, “you can speak it really well. You had full conversations with our teachers all the time. Oh, she's really good at Korean too!”
Sakura pursed her lips at the reminder, “I don’t remember too much of that though.”
A thought then popped into Shōyō’s head, “Didn’t you only learn it because you liked-”
“Shut up, no one asked you.” She definitely didn’t want to get into how she had a bit of a k-pop phase while in junior high. So she just bonked her brother on the head to stop him from speaking.
Changing the conversation, Yachi started, “So, Hinata-kun…”
“Just Shōyō’s fine.”
“Do you not like studying, Shōyō-kun?”
“I hate it.” He gruffly confessed, though that wasn’t surprising. “Sitting for a long time like this sucks.”
“So you’re trying really hard so you can go to Tokyo?”
“Yeah!” He became happy talking about the upcoming camp, “We’re gonna have practice matches with all the strong schools from Tokyo!”
Yachi smiled at the upbeat turn of his mood, “That’s amazing. I’ve never been that serious about anything before.”
“There’s this school called Nekoma High School in Tokyo, and the setter there is super-smart.” Shōyō started to explain a bit more in depth, “And then like their leader has a really spikey head… He’s really big and seems like a bad guy. And there’s a guy that’s totally awesome at picking up one receive after another like foom.” 
“The libero from Nekoma is awesome.” Kageyama commented, “He’s on par with Nishinoya-san.”
“There are a lot of amazing guys! Not just in Tokyo, but in our prefecture…” Sakura continued to listen to her brother’s explanation and could see that it was going over Yachi’s head. She’ll have to make sure to go over volleyball terms and such later with her. “There’s the Great King from Aoba Johsai, Ushiwaka, who’s known as the undefeated champion, and Date Tech has the Iron Wall who’s 190cm tall!”
“190 centimeters?!” Yachi yelled before blinking at the boy, “Um… Hinata, are you a manager, too?”
“Why?” He asked.
“Oh… I thought only tall people played volleyball and the club was full of tall guys.”
There was a short pause as Sakura snickered into her hand and Shōyō took a second to jump up. “I may be short, b-but I’m a regular!”
Yachi froze in shock, since she just judged someone based just off of his height. She nearly threw herself under her desk as she shouted out, “I’m so sorry!”
“It’s okay.” Shōyō reassured her, “I’m used to it. Even if I’m not big, I can fly!” Yachi stared up at him with wide eyes. The determination that he had in his stance was palpable enough for her to see. He really was 
Kageyama broke her out of her thoughts, “Hinata, don’t you need to copy this down?”
“Oh, yeah.” He then quieted down and started to finish his copying. “Everyone’s so big and they look strong, but when we’re in a match, I feel like I’m taking those people on. It’s exciting. It’s nerve-racking.”
Yachi blinked at his determination. It was inspiring to hear something like that. She smiled, “That’s amazing, taking on people like that. That makes you a Little Giant, Hinata.”
At the name, Shōyō jumped up, “Huh!?”
“What!?” Yachi jumped anxiously at the sudden shout.
“You know who the Little Giant is?” He asked, “Did Sakura tell you?”
That certainly confused Yachi as she had no clue what he was talking about. “Huh? Uh, no. I, uh… Don’t you call Japanese players that when they’re fighting with much bigger foreign players in sports?”
“Oh, right.” Shōyō calmed down and deflated slightly, “Yeah, I’m gonna be the Little Giant.”
Kageyama then said, “Hey, Little Giant that’s not gonna make it to Tokyo, hurry up and copy this.” Which Shōyō quickly did.
Sakura started to munch on her food again as she watched them finish up copying. If she were being honest, she’s glad that there was someone else helping with her brother’s studying. She honestly was surprised when Tsukishima agreed to help, even if it was only for a few minutes each day. She was convinced that he’d just laugh in their faces and leave them high and dry. It confused her a bit, but she was more than grateful for it. Which was not something she would admit to out loud. That beanstalk would just hold that over her head for who knew how long. Now with Yachi added into it, she was certain that her brother would do well. Sakura admires Yachi since she is very intelligent and well-rounded. Sure, the blonde was a bit jumpy and anxious a lot, but that didn’t detract from her smarts. Sakura was more than glad to have her as a close friend.
Eventually, the break period was almost over, and the boys had gotten the notes copied, it was time for them to part ways. Sakura and Yachi followed the two boys out to say goodbye.  Standing outside the door, Shōyō asked, “Will you help us study again?”
“Sure.” Yachi nodded, “Teaching you guys helps me remember the material, too.”
Shōyō then started to aggressively shake Yachi’s hands, “Thanks! Thank you, Yachi-san!”
“Oh, no,” Yachi said nervously at the aggressiveness, “it’s nothing…”
“See you in club!”
Yachi waved at the two as they left before her smile dropped. Her appearance now becoming drained, “What is this? I feel like I’ve been left out in direct sunlight for a while.”
“That happens when you’re around my brother for too long.” Sakura explained to her with a shrug of her shoulders.
Yachi looked to her as they headed back into the classroom, “you weren’t kidding when you said you and him weren’t alike.”
Sakura couldn’t help but chuckled slightly, “I told you.”
---
School came to an end and all the students started to make their ways to their clubs or escape home. After their class ended, Sakura and Yachi headed to the gym. Basically the entire time, Sakura had been doing her best to explain things about volleyball to her. She talked about the positions, basic rules, and explained who the Little Giant was. Even from the way she spoke about the past middle blocker from Karasuno, Yachi could tell that Sakura knows nearly everything about him. The obsession that Shōyō had with the Little Giant was something that Sakura took seriously, in Yachi’s opinion. It was heartwarming to see her invested in her brother’s hobbies and interests. 
“Remember,” Sakura started to say, “it’s okay if you don’t know anything, Kiyoko will help you.” She did her best to prepare Yachi for what was to come, but she knew that Kiyoko would be there to help further.
Yachi nodded her head as if she was heading off to war, “Right.”
Sakura smirked, “I know that you’ll do good.”
The two walked up to the door and were instantly bombarded with a bright ray of sunshine jumping at them. “Yachi-san! Imouto! This afternoon’s English quiz…” He showed her the quiz that had a score of 21. “Some parts you taught me were on there, and I got a third of them right!”
“Wahoo!” The two cheered and jumped around before Yachi praised Shōyō. “That’s amazing, Shōyō-kun!”
Sakura smiled just slightly at how happy the two of them were. Still, 21 isn’t an acceptable grade just yet. Sakura thought to herself in slight amusement and worry. Yes, it’s better than what he normally might do, but there was still a way to go before he could successfully pass their exams.
She cleared her throat to get the bubbly pair’s attention, “Well, have a good practice.”
“Do you have club today, imouto?” Shōyō asked with a small tilt of his head.
“Yes,” she nodded, “technically it’s just about every other day, but I’d rather come to your practices.” Shimada was very relaxed on the club attendance as most of the time they don’t have all too much to do. The only times everyone is required to go is when they have a gallery coming up or some similar event to go over about. Honestly, it’s a bit of just a glorified hangout between friends, in Sakura’s opinion. Yes, she would love to go to every club meeting, but she just was still having some trouble leaving Shōyō’s practices. It’s too ingrained in her routine to be at his practices everyday that she was having some difficulty pulling herself away from them.
There seemed to be an emotion that flashed in Shōyō’s eyes for a moment before it was gone as if it didn’t happen. He just smiled at her, “Have a good time at your club then!”
“Have a good practice,” she said before giving Yachi a reassuring squeeze on her shoulder. With that, she lazily walked off to head to the photography club. Shōyō watched her go with his smile, though it did slip off a bit. He didn’t know that her club was every day. Had he known that he might encourage her to go more. Then again he had to wonder, would he be okay with not having her around for his practices either. Just as much as Sakura is used to being at the volleyball team’s practice, Shōyō was used to her being right on the sidelines. Though he can’t think about that right now, he has to focus on practice.
---
Walking into the club room, everyone was in their normal spots as usual as Sakura got comfy in her spot by the window. Her fellow clubmates were already in the club room talking to each other. Wada was sitting on top of a desk, talking animatedly about something. If Sakura had to guess, it was about something that she surely wouldn’t be interested in.
The group all greeted Sakura in their own ways as Wada smiled at their youngest member. “Hinata-chan, you’re just in time.” 
Ito rolled her eyes, obviously annoyed with whatever Wada had already been talking about, “Yeah, you almost missed out on Wada going on and on about his new girlfriend.”
Wada smiled wistfully, “And what a beautiful girl she is.” Whoever this girl was, she must have been pretty amazing for him to swoon like this.
“And isn’t this girlfriend number five this year?” Ito sassed with a raised eyebrow. It’s known to everyone at school that Wada is a popular guy, which means plenty of love confessions, and who is he to turn them down. Especially when they’re from girls he is even slightly interested in. Sure, at this point he’s dated most of the girls in his grade and a couple third-years, he’s just an interesting guy.
Though that didn’t stop Wada from smirking at her, “Jealous?” 
“You wish!” She scoffed at the absurdity of that question. After all, why would she be jealous of someone like Wada Katski?
Yokoyama leaned over to Sakura and stage whispered, “She’s definitely jealous.”
“Yea, I don’t want to hear about your girlfriend,” Shimada said, leaning over to her underclassmen. She smiled, it appeared a bit teasing, as she looked down to Sakura, “I want to hear about why Sakura’s here! Did you miss us!?”
“No,” Sakura scoffed, “of course not.”
The club president just cooed, “Come on, admit it, you missed us.”
“Perhaps,” Shimada brightened at Sakura admitting that, “I did miss seeing Mori-senpai.” Shimada then deflated.
“Though it is surprising,” Yokoyama commented while pursing their lips, ignoring the depressed Shimada. “You don’t usually come to club on days like this. Normally, you’re here just when we tell you to be and have something important.” 
“You make it sound like I’m a slacker or something,” Sakura scrunched up her eyebrows.
Mori giggled lightly from her seat across from Sakura, “When it comes to attendance, you are.”
Sure, she didn’t come to club all too much, but she was there when it counted. Sakura justified her lack of attendance for the club by the fact that they didn’t have all too many important things to do. She viewed days like this as just a time to be lazy with the club and talk. She pursed her lips, “Well it’s not like we have much to do.”
Wada leaned over with a smirk, “How would you know if you aren’t usually here on days like this.” He had her there.
“Do we have something to do?” Sakura raised an eyebrow, challenging them on the notion.
Shimada jumped up in excitement, “Indeed we do, today is ‘learn more about Sakura day!’”
Said girl blinked in confusion, “Huh?”
“We would love to get to know you more Sakura!”
“Yeah, you come in here only every once in a while and it’s not like you talk all too much about yourself.”
Sakura couldn’t help herself but shift uncomfortably, “There’s nothing too interesting to talk about me.”
“I beg to differ,” Shimada said, now plopping herself onto the table that Sakura was sitting at. “What have you been up to? What have you been taking pictures of? Any new projects? What about the volleyball club? Finally decided on which boy is cute enough for you?”
Sakura huffed, “none of them are cute!”
Mori intervened before they scared Sakura off, “In return, you can get to know us more.”
Sakura looked at the five in front of her and their eager expressions. They obviously just wanted to be closer to her as club mates and friends, which Sakura knew was a good idea. She had decided recently that she should officially distance herself from Shoyo and making her own group of friends is one part of that. So she could use this moment to achieve that. It was just that… it seemed to be easier said than done. 
She glanced away, either in embarrassment or anxiousness, and grumbled out, “I guess that it’s okay.” The others cheered, “but no talking about the volleyball club! None of them are cute, I am not and would never be interested in any of them!” Shimada, Wada and Ito deflated at that piece of information, since they wanted to get all the juicy bits of Sakura’s life. Though that didn’t mean they weren’t getting anything from her. “I’ve been thinking of working on a portfolio a bit more,” she explained, “taking it a bit more seriously so I can use it later on, I guess.”
“That’s pretty smart,” Ito tapped her chin in thought, “we should all probably do something like that.”
Sakura deadpanned, “you don’t already?”
“We will now!” Shimada exclaimed, “it’s a great idea for all of us, I’d say.”
Everyone agreed with that sentiment. At least now they would have more to do with their lazier days in the club. You would think that they’d have some sort of activities to do when not having to worry about galleries. Sakura thought to herself as she watched them talk about the ideas for portfolios and how to go about making them. Perhaps she could suggest some things to Shimada and Mori about projects that they could do. Though for that to happen, she would have to come to the club a bit more often. Watching the other teens talk with each other made Sakura realize that it didn’t sound like such a bad idea. So in that moment, she came to the decision that she would come to the club more often and socialize more often. It might just do her some good.

Blog Masterlist | Red Herring Masterlist | Last Chapter | Next Chapter
This chapter seems longer than what I've usually done, maybe that's me. I'm hoping to get through season 2 generally as fast as I can, since I want to write season 3 cause it's my favorite ^-^ There does feel like there's a disconnect between this chapter as some points cause I feel like I lost myself in the writing a bit and couldn't totally get into the headspace for Sakura and Endo's characterization. Though I hope that it was good enough! Next up is going to be an original chapter staring Endo! Not totally sure how long Imma make it, but I feel like it's going to be quite a heavy, angsty chapter. I'll have to figure it out lmao
So I went on a family vacation for a few weeks! Went to Florida to Disney which was fun, and literally just got back from a BTR concert. Ah, Big Time Rush... brings back so many memories of middle school... bleh.
Though I'm back and I am hoping to finish up a new fanfiction this week or at least mid July for Stranger Things. I posted some stuff about it on my Tumblr which was just the master list for it and some character mood boards. I already have Secrets of the Forest uploaded, but I'm sort of reimagining that and rewriting the story for it, so I won't be touching that for some time. But Sealed Lips, the title of the new fic, came to me on the spur of the moment (like most fanfics lmao) and I think it'll be the first fic that I completely finish before posting it. That way I can upload it on a consistant basis... hopefully.
Anyway, hope you liked it, let me know what you thought. Until the next time, my friends!

Help | R.B
Paring: Regulus Black X Daughter!Reader
Summary: At first it was for him, now everything he does is for her. 
Warnings: Rape, cursing, death, etc
Being wise comes with living. Dumbledore had lived a lot of years. Everyone knows that. The man worked his way up the hierarchy from being a Transfiguration teacher to the headmaster at Hogwarts. He was even offered a place as the Minister of Magic. What people didn’t comprehend or, rather, didn’t think about was, when living that long you realize every button to push, every nook and cranny to get your way. 
Manipulation at its finest. Now, truth be told, manipulation isn’t always evil. It can be good, per se, manipulating someone to stop doing something that’s particularly harmful - alcohol, smoking. But when used negatively, it could make everything worse. 
The Order of the Phoenix was manipulated. From beginning to end. Dumbledore convinced the young kids - naive kids - that they were safe and that’s what they needed. These kids needed reassurance that everything would be okay, and Dumbledore assured them that they were safe. 
But were they safe when the McKinnon family died? Were they safe when Fabian and Gidian Prewett died? Could James and Lily truly depend on Dumbledore to keep them safe with a newborn? 
When Sirius Black joined the order, he had one request. Just one. A linear, singular request. It was saving Regulus Black. That’s all Sirius wanted, was for his little brother to be safe. Sirius knew about Regulus being a death eater, and he needed saving. Regulus didn’t want this life, and he especially didn’t want this with a baby girl. 
He was seventeen, and he was forced. Sirius knew it. James knew it. Remus knew it. Regulus had come to the Gryffindor portrait crying on his knees, begging - no - pleading for his older brother. The Fat Lady was cursing him out for not having the password and being a Slytherin. Luckily, James heard the ruckus and ran to his aid. He was yelling for Sirius. 
“Sirius! Sirius, I need you!” James had never sounded so frantic, so panicky, “Sirius, now!”
Sirius threw the textbook on the floor. James’ voice reminded him of an alarm - crazed, loud, repetitive. The black-haired boy ran down the dorm steps, almost falling over his feet to see the portrait wide open. Everything went in a vignette, zoomed in and black around the edges. Immediately Sirius was pushing James off his little brother and embracing him tightly. 
“S- Sirius.”
Godric, he sounded so broken, “‘S okay, Reggie. ‘S okay. I got you. It’s me, Sirius. You’re safe here, Frère.”
“It- It hurts.” Regulus muttered, his voice shaky and helpless, “Need you.”
“You’re okay.” 
Sirius looked up into James’ worried hazel eyes, “C’mon. We’re bringing him up.”
“Are you mental?!”
“James, he’s my brother!”
James scowled, “He’s also a Slytherin!”
“He needs me. I’m not letting him go.” It was the first time Sirius’ voice had gone stern with James, “Either I’m sleeping out here with my brother, or you’re helping me bring him up to the dorm.”
“Fine, fine.” 
Sirius looked down at his brother, who was tucked under his chin, silver streams trailing down his flushed cheeks. His cheeks glistened with anguish and pain. His fists were balling the back of Sirius’ white button-up, tightly, stressed. 
“Reggie.” For the first time, Regulus didn’t cringe, and instead, he melted into Sirius’ warmth, “James and I are going to bring you into our dorm, okay?”
“Mhm.”
Gently Sirius helped him up, placing an arm around his shoulder. James put his other arm around his shoulder. Both boys helped the sixth year into the Gryffindor common room, getting multiple stares and glares. Regulus managed to up the stairs onto Sirius’ bed, a sniffling and trembling mess. 
James smiled gently at them, and Sirius sat beside Regulus on the edge of his bed, “What happened?”
“She- She forced me. I didn’t want to. Please, Sirius, I didn’t want this.”
“Want what?”
“She touched me.” Regulus whispered, and Sirius rubbed his back, “I- I didn’t want it….”
Sirius hesitated, “Did- Did mum have anything to do with this?”
Regulus nodded, and silent tears fell down his cheeks, “She- Mum, is the reason. I was supposed to be arranged to this woman but- but she did this and- and-“
“It’s too much.” Regulus wailed. 
Sirius held his brother close until he fell asleep. The trails of tears dried on his cheeks, and Sirius laid his head on the feathery pillow. The fleece comforter was placed over his wrinkled button-up, black pants, and socks. Regulus’ black curls contrasted the pillow, and his cheeks were a pale pink. Sirius had never felt so upset. 
Releasing a breath of air, he left the dorm room to go to the common room where the boys were sitting. James perked up, and Remus’ head was pulled into a book, a cup of tea on the table beside him. Peter was playing chess with a fellow Gryffindor across the room, not paying attention to anything but the checkered table before him. 
“Is he okay?” 
Sirius plopped beside James, “He will be.”
The silence was killing Remus to the point of his curiosity tipping over, “What happened exactly?”
“Some girl, my mum, arranged him with did something that he didn’t consent to.”
The teacup that was in Remus’ hand dropped to the carpeted floor, staining, “You’re shitting me?”
Regulus was in pain, physically and emotionally. Although the boys didn’t understand completely, they understood that Sirius’s time would be dedicated to his little brother. No matter what was going on in the wizarding world at present, Sirius’ time was needed with Regulus. 
It was nine months later. Thirty-nine weeks later. Two hundred and seventy-three days later. Left on the doorstep of the Noble House of Black’s residence was a baby girl. Orion and Walburga had left the house previously, leaving Regulus alone with Kreacher, their house elf. The baby girl was crying and helpless. 
His lifeless grey eyes met the young girl's e/c ones, and everything clicked. This was the product of his emotional pain in his sixth year. Regulus couldn’t deny the warmth in his heart looking at the young girl. Gently he leaned down to take her in his arms. A pink silk blanket wrapped around her to keep her warm despite the summer months. 
Once in his arms, the girls stopped crying. The warmth of his body and the softness in his eyes calmed her down. There was an envelope inside the baby blanket, which Regulus opened after placing the sleeping child on his lap. Essentially the letter was telling him to name the baby girl and her birthday. Along with now that the marriage was called off, she wanted nothing to do with him. 
Regulus threw the parchment to the side furiously. Despite his frustration, he picked up his daughter and smiled at her, “I dunno what to name you precious.”
The girl wrapped her hand around his thumb that had been caressing her cheek, “Y/n? I like that name.”
She smiled, and so did he, “You like that too, don’t you, précieux.”
Regulus placed a kiss on Y/n’s forehead, rocking her back and forth, “I love you so much.” 
During the school year, Y/n stayed with Sirius, who was overjoyed to stay with his niece. Regulus only saw his daughter one more time before he decided it was his end. Regulus knocked on Sirius’ flat, looking utterly exhausted. Sirius answered with a big smile on his face. 
“Heya Reggie!”
Regulus struggled to smile, “Hey, Siri.”
“Come on.” Sirius beckoned, “Y/n is sleeping, but you can see her if you’d like.”
He walked in to see a door open to a small room. Inside it was painted in a pale lavender color with white furniture. Regulus walked inside to find a crib with his one-year-old girl sleeping inside. She made this so much harder. Regulus didn’t want to do this, but he needed to do it if he wished Y/n to have a safe life. 
Regulus’ arms cradled his daughter to his chest, “I love you, précieux. I love you too much to express. I know that you’ll never remember me. I’m praying that Sirius will tell you about me.”
“You’re my baby girl. You’ll always be my baby girl.” Regulus’ eyes welled with tears, “And- And I’ll be with you no matter what.”
Y/n’s eyes opened, and she smiled, being cradled in her father's arms, “Dada?” 
Regulus had tears streaming down his face, and Sirius watched from the doorway, “Yes, hi petite fille.”
She giggled, and Regulus had the brightest smile on his face; he nuzzled his nose with hers, “Dada’s here, little girl.”
He spent an hour with her. The last sixty minutes of his freedom was spent cooing and coddling. Regulus wanted to engrave her beautiful e/c eyes in his head, her soft smile, smooth skin, and fuzzy hair. Regulus placed his daughter back in the crib and kissed her forehead one more time. 
Walking back out into the living room of the flat, he saw Sirius waiting for him. Regulus didn’t make any appoint to try and sit down. That’s how Sirius knew was something wrong. He released an air of breath and dried his tears. 
“Sirius, you may have to keep Y/n with you a little longer until it’s safe, okay?”
“‘Course Reggie.”
“If- If I don’t come back-“
“Don't say that, please.”
Regulus looked at his brother solemnly, “But it’s realistic.”
“Okay, just- try to make it back.” Sirius replied. 
“Yeah, yeah, I’ll try.” He lied, “I- I want you to tell her about me, yeah?”
Sirius chuckled, “You’re her father, Regulus. I wouldn’t not tell her.”
“Don’t let her mum take her. I don’t care what she says Y/n will be in your care.”
Sirius nodded, “One- One more thing. This may sound stupid but, teach her French?”
“Teach her French? Why?”
“It’s how I used to talk to her before seventh year started. I want her to know how to speak it. French was something I enjoyed learning, something that kept me sane at our horror house.” Regulus confessed, “I want her to learn it.”
“If it means that much to you, Reggie.” Sirius replied, and Regulus nodded, “It does.”
“Then Y/n will learn French, after English.” 
“Good.”
Regulus began walking out the door when he felt arms around him from behind and a head in the crook of his neck, “Come back alive, okay?”
“I’m gonna try, Siri.”
He never came back alive. Regulus walked toward the entrance of that cave, knowing that today he was going to die. In the start, this was for Regulus to right his wrongs. Now it’s for his daughter. If anything, Y/n deserved a happy, exciting life. Not one of pain and suffering like Regulus had. 
The Daily Prophet the next day said everything it needed to, “REGULUS BLACK DECLARED DEAD.” This was it. Regulus had inevitably left his daughter and got himself killed. Sirius cried - sobbed - for his little brother who had a child. He wept for his niece, who would grow up not knowing her father. 
Ten years later, Y/n was getting ready for her first year at Hogwarts. Sirius had introduced baby Harry with one-year-old Y/n at the time where they became best friends. Harry was gravely disappointed at his best friend leaving but excited that he’d see her the following year. 
In the bathroom, Y/n was sitting in front of the mirror with Sirius behind her. Sirius was brushing her hair, not because she couldn’t do it but because Sirius didn’t really want to let her go. After setting the brush on the counter, he placed his hands on her shoulders, looking at her in the mirror. She looked so much like him. His hands twirled through her h/c hair. 
“You look like your father.”
Y/n’s eyes widened, “I- I do?”
“You do.”
“I don’t remember much from him.” Y/n stated, “I remember him calling me précieux, vaguely, which I know now is precious.”
Sirius chuckled, “He also made me teach you, French. It was one of his wishes before he- you know.”
“Why?”
“Learning French is a pure-blood thing. Regulus said it kept him sane.” Sirius answered, “I honored that even if I hated that language.”
It was silent for a while, “You know, sometimes when you’re angry, you just start ranting in French?”
“I don’t!”
Sirius laughed, “You do. You definitely do, amour.”
Y/n giggled, and Sirius began tickling her sides. Her laughter and smile were contagious, just like how Regulus’ was. Regulus had such an infectious laugh and beautiful smile. Sirius was almost glad Y/n inherited it. After tickling her, she melted into Sirius’ embrace, hugging him tightly. 
“Je t'aime, oncle Sirius.”
“Je t'aime aussi, amour.”
It was a system Sirius had created with her instead of saying, “Toujours Pur,” like his mother had made him and Regulus say. Y/n is what made him love French again. The way she swore in the language unintentionally. How she’d say the language like a native, just like her father. It meant everything to him. 
Years later. Y/n was in fifth year, and the Triwizard tournament members had just been called. Viktor Krum was called first. Then Fleur Delacour. Then Cedric Diggory. That was meant to be the finality, but nonetheless, Harry Potter’s name got called. As all the members walked into a room away from the Great Hall, Dumbledore began speaking to the worried children. 
One sentence stood out to Y/n particularly, “Help will always be given at Hogwarts for those who deserve it.”
It brought so much rage in her that she couldn’t help but speak, “That’s bullshit!”
Everyone stared with jaws slack, “My father deserved help! Hell, he needed to be saved, and here because of your bullshit, he died! My father is gone because of you and your shitty manipulative ways!”
“He may have been a death eater, but it wasn’t what he wanted. Godric, he needed saving! His own brother turned on him. So fuck you and fuck your stupid sayings. Because you aren’t a saint, and I don’t have to fall to your knees like a worthless soldier.”
Dumbledore was astonished by her attitude as she began leaving the Great Hall, “That's one hundred points from Gryffindor, Ms.Black!” McGonagall yelled. 
“Pardonnez mon français, mais je m'en fous.” Y/n yelled as she flicked off everyone in the room. 
Before she left, she turned around and faced everyone, “If anyone- and I mean anyone, touches, talks badly, or even remotely glares at Harry Potter, so help me, I won’t hesitate to hex you.”

Comfort spell gone wrong (the dateables)
Anonymous asked: for the lore Olympus ask but with the dateables. (Deleted this ask by accident but here it is)
Comfort spell gone wrong
Not only had the brothers been completely horrible the past few weeks but even your friends in purgatory hall and Diavolo himself had been too busy for you.
You understood that Simeon was busy helping Luke work through some things. But still, being brushed aside after the brothers had been so cruel towards you hadn’t helped your crumbling self-worth.
Solomon had heaved a big sigh and told you “They're demons Mc. It’s what they do. You’re going to have to grow a thicker skin. Besides, I don’t have time to help you with something so trivial.” Before handing you a page from a spellbook “if you really can’t deal with it yourself use this for comfort.”
You’d undeniably ruined Barbatos’s hard work when you’d tripped and tipped over the cake he’d been working on all morning. The demon had shooed you from his domain with barely concealed rage and asked you not to come back until “you can prevent yourself from causing me more work.”
Diavolo, despite always telling you you could come to him with your troubles, had snapped that Solomon seemed to be doing just fine. “So maybe you need to try harder, Mc. Rather than blaming your problems on other people.”
The spell Solomon had given you seemed simple enough. Although it was in an unfamiliar mix of Latin and Infernal. Couldn’t hurt to try though. At least not anymore than you were already hurting. You’d cast the spell, stumbling through a few words and thinking it hadn’t worked when nothing happened. Figures you couldn’t do it, you were still new to magic and just as useless at it as everyone had so kindly reminded you the last few days. It still sapped your energy though, stupid spell. You closed your eyes thinking that maybe it was better that the spell didn’t work. You’d never live down the embarrassment if anyone found out you tried to use a comfort spell.
Lucifer calls the others asking if anyone has seen you, after several days of radio silence from you. Solomon, Luke, and Simeon rush to the house of Lamentation once they hear you haven’t been seen for days. They find Lucifer and the brothers crowded around you, worriedly discussing the spell which has covered you and your room in vines. Babratos and Diavolo are already there, both looking guilty. Solomon feels his stomach drop when he recognizes the page from the spellbook.
“Lucifer, I recognize that spell, I gave it to them when-” Solomon begins
“Yes, it figures you would have your hands in this Solomon.” Lucifer glares.
It’s Simeon who steps forward to undo the spell, giving Luke’s shoulder a comforting squeeze on his way by. “Lucifer if you would,” he says gesturing to your form “this will take both our magics to undo, I believe.”
Solomon:
Shit, shit! Solomon recognizes that spell! He gave it to you.
It wasn’t supposed to do this, it was just a simple comfort spell!
But he can’t help feeling responsible for what's happened.
He feels like he should have known, should have realized something was going on when he gave you that spell.
You’d just wanted to talk, but he was so caught up in trying to find a way to make pacts with the brothers that he totally brushed you off.
He handed you a page out of a spellbook instead. And told you to deal with things yourself.
Solomon is crushed. He has always told you that if you ever need to talk to another human, he’d be there. But he wasn’t. He told you to deal with it alone.
When Simeon and Lucifer break the spell he is by your side in an instant.
Hands fluttering over your body, brushing withering plants off you. Feeling utterly useless.
The spell had gotten so convoluted and twisted in ways he’d never seen before, he hadn’t even been able to break it.
You blink your eyes open, Solomon’s distraught face coming into focus.
“Mc, I shouldn’t have given you that spell. I’m so sorry. I-I said I’d always help you if you needed me but all I did was hurt you instead.”
He wants to distance himself from you. But he knows that won’t make you feel any better. It won’t make him feel better either.
Instead, he’ll be far more careful with the magic he gives you. He’ll start teaching you more magic, so you can practice spells safely.
But he’ll also do his best to make sure you never need a comfort spell again.
He wants to be your comfort.
Solomon will plan elaborate outings and magic filled dates. He gets all these grand ideas and half of them turn into disasters but somehow he’ll make sure the two of you still have fun.
It’s easy for Solomon to forget that he needs to communicate better. But he’s trying. Instead of snapping at you again he’ll be sure to set aside time for himself. Besides, being in the Devildom is more fun with an apprentice anyways, plus teaching you magic gives him plenty of time to make sure you are happy too.
Simeon:
Simeon is shocked when he sees you.
A shiver runs down his spine when he feels the spell sucking the energy from your body.
His eyes don’t miss the botched comfort spell on the ground and he wonders why you didn’t come to him.
And then he realizes. You did. But he brushed you off to help Luke and even when you were hurting you didn’t want to burden him.
He feels like he’s failed you by making you feel like you couldn’t come to him.
When you open your eyes Simeon is the first thing you see.
He gently brushes the plants from your face and hair.
“Oh my sweet little lamb, you are never a burden to me. I am so sorry I made you feel you couldn’t come to me.”
Simeon brings you to Purgatory hall while your room is cleaned.
He gently untangles bits of plant matter from your hair, humming what must be some Celestial lullaby to you.
“Mc,” he begins once he’s removed the remaining plants from your hair and skin, and you’ve allowed yourself to relax into him. “Forgive me, Mc. I should have seen how much you were hurting.”
He is being so gentle with you. But his voice takes a stern edge as he tells you “Next time you feel like this, promise me you will come to me. If you tell me what’s going on I will always have time for you.”
Simeon makes sure to check in on you now, to make time for you. He’ll invite you to Purgatory hall for dinners and/or sleepovers. Oftentimes Luke joins you. But sometimes he’ll sneak you in so the sleepover is your little secret.
Diavolo:
Oh, Mc! He hasn’t seen a spell like this in centuries.
He knows it’s a mistake, but the power it must have taken to cast this spell is impressive.
He’s curious to know what kind of power you’ll have after you’ve been trained properly.
That not to say he isn’t concerned, it's just he knows the spell can be undone, and he finds it easier to deal with the situation if he doesn’t think about how close he came to losing you.
He’ll request that the brothers keep a closer eye on you, not that they weren’t going to anyway.
Diavolo will scoop you from the tangled vines, brushing the remaining vines from your skin as he carries you from your room.
He sits down on his throne, with you still held in his arms. For a moment you're afraid of his thunderous expression.
And then his eyes soften. “Mc,” he whispers. Emotion making his throat tighten, choking off his voice. “Why?”
“Why don’t you find a human who can do better than me Diavolo? You said so yourself, I’m a disappointment.”
“Mc, I didn’t mean! I didn’t want you to-! I didn’t”
He knows what he said. But he never meant for you to take it to heart like this. He was just stressed and he took it out on you.
“I’m sorry, Mc. I shouldn’t have taken my anger out on you. You haven’t disappointed me. I’m sorry I made you feel like you can’t rely on me. Please understand that I would do anything in my power for you.”
A frightening promise from the prince of the Devildom.
Diavolo is careful to control himself in the future. To prevent himself from letting his stress and anger get the better of him.
Careful to remind you how important you are to him, and not just because you are an exchange student, but because he cares for you.
Barbatos:
Anger. Fear. Barbatos tumbles between the two emotions.
It seems that by placing you in this timeline to protect you from Belphagor’s anger he has put you in a new kind of danger. One he didn’t see coming.
This makes him question his decision not to look into the future more than necessary.
Humans are so fragile. And this is just more proof of that fact.
Barbatos is by your side the moment you wake up.
He is lifting you to your feet and guiding you from your room.
Barbatos is a perfect gentleman as he helps you clean up. Helping you scrub the plants from your skin, wrapping you in the softest blankets.
But he remains silent the whole time.
Once you are safely tucked into bed Barbatos speaks. “Mc, I know I have made you feel useless. I should not have taken my anger out on you. I should have known better.”
For a moment you think he’s going to leave, that that’s all he is going to say.
But then he asks if he can stay with you. If the answer is yes, he’ll curl around you in your bed. Holding you to him as if you are likely to disappear.
It has been a long time since Barbatos has had something or someone he has been afraid to lose. “I’m sorry Mc. Please know you can come to me, even if I may be upset. I’d rather you make me face my shortcomings then lose you.”
Barbatos starts having you over for tea more often. He’ll take you on errands with him, if he thinks you’d find them at all interesting.
Mostly he just wants more excuses to spend time with you.
This made him realize how important you are to him and he’ll make sure you know it.
Luke:
Scared little sibling vibes.
Luke is so scared to see you like this!
You are so still and pale that he thinks you might be dead.
When you open your eyes he is so relieved.
Please don’t scare him like this again!
He’s got tears in his eyes, and he half yells half cries at you “Mc! You- you can’t just do something like this. What if- if you had died? I know these demons-” he shoots a watery glare at the demons “can make you feel sad but you’re my friend.”
He’ll ask you to stay at Purgatory hall for a while. He 100% thinks this is all the brother’s fault.
In fact he wants you to move into Purgatory hall permanently and he is so insistent that Diavolo might just let you if that's what you want.
He’ll make sure you know that he sees you as a big sibling, a friend that he could never replace “so please don’t think nobody cares Mc. I know we’re not really related but you’re like a sibling to me.”

Diluc's Voice Lines about (Y/N)
Diluc's remarks about (Y/N) at different levels of friendship with him. (Somewhat reminds me of the concept of relationships in Stardew Valley).
~
I don't really know how to write gender-neutral texts, so I decided to insert just "she/he". I hope no one has any particular problems with this.
And please forgive me if it doesn't quite sound like voice lines!
~
About (Y/N).
M? Why are you asking about (Y/N)? You have met her/him recently and  you want to ask others about her/him? In that case, I will disappoint you. I only know that she/he is a knight of Favonius. No more, no less.
About (Y/N). (Requires a fourth level of friendship).
Are you still interested? Okay, I'll tell you. I think (Y/N) is a pretty good person who tries to take care of loved ones and doesn't even shame the knights. She/he rarely drinks and usually makes sure that her/his companions can return home on their own feet. Sometimes she/he helps me catch up with this little bard who always doesn't pay the bill. However, in the end (Y/N) always pays for him anyway and says that I can always contact her/him if someone tries to leave again without paying.
About (Y/N). (Requires a sixth level of friendship).
On my anniversary (Y/N) brought me chess from her/him business trip. We played after the tavern closed. Guess who lost all the matches? I had to teach her/him different combinations all night to make the game last at least three minutes. Even though (Y/N) is usually pretty smart, especially when fighting, she/he seems to have turned off her/his brain that day. Our game exhausted her/him so much that in the end (Y/N) fell asleep on my shoulder… What? No, I didn't blush. You just drank a lot. I advise you to go and get some fresh air before you get sick.
About (Y/N). (Requires the eighth level of friendship).
Oh, are you here again? I wanted to thank you for completing my order, with my schedule I have almost no time for anything. These flowers will be great ingredients for cocktails... Wh-what? Did you see how I gave its (Y/N)?!. S-stop laughing! Look, don't tell anyone about this, please... Yes, we're dating. I admit I lied to you the first time we met. But I just don't want my fans or people who want to hurt me to run after (Y/N) and try to hurt her/him. She/he already has a lot of work to do. I just want (Y/N) to always be happy and safe. May I... ask you to take care of her/him if the opportunity presents itself?
About (Y/N). (Requires the tenth level of friendship).
Thank you for agreeing to talk to me in my personal account. I won't distract you for long. A? Topic of conversation? You see... ah, it's so embarrassing to say… I would like you to know the size of the ring finger (Y/N). I heard you're friends with her/him, and you're not too connected to me to (Y/N) suspect something… Just... go shopping with her/him and offer to try on some rings. I have to know the exact size, I don't want to ruin anything. I promise I'll reward you handsomely... Eh?.. Do you want an invitation to our wedding? Well, I will not refuse the "Honorary Knight".
Bonus (?)
Daily task: a package for beloved.
Paimon: "Hello, Master Diluc! What can we do for you today?"
Diluc: "Good morning. I see you have responded to my request. My spouse – I think you know who I'm talking about – is currently training with recruits at a site near the city. Please take this bottle of grape juice to her/him. I think she/he will be thirsty as soon as he finishes. You can come back for the reward at any time. I'll be at the tavern all day".
Paimon: "Wow, it looks like Master Diluc really cares about (Y/N), since he asked the Adventure Guild to take it on! Well, let's not upset him! The main thing is to carry the bottle carefully, I would not like it to break on the way. I think we should try to avoid monsters while we're carrying grape juice (Y/N)".

it started with him lending you his sweatpants, but then you didn’t want to return them forgot to return them and BOOM 💥 here we are
extremely awkward and shy at first — don’t worry though, he becomes much more chaotic in the later phases of your relationship
he teases you SO MUCH. LIKE. SO MUCH.
always has small smile (smirk?) on his face when he’s about to make a cocky remark (so beware)
you tease him back just twice as hard which 1.) results in him in becoming flustered 2.) fails LOL
off-topic but he’d love a s/o that has a similar style to him ??? a more elegant, classy, dark style perhaps
when he’s away / busy he’ll send you some selcas and captions them with “how r u doing??” “did you eat yet?” “cheer up :P” 
kinda shy about pda but likes showing off too ???
i mean,, men... 🙄🙄 /lh
whenever someone mentions your name near him, he’ll just try to hide his smile while biting his lip (yk what i’m talking about???) and you’ll see his dimples and the affectionate look in his eyes and just AAAAA
the type of boyfriend that calls you love~
Tumblr media

stages of sunoo flirting (?):
a — tries to compliment you (it sounds more like a flirty remark tbh)
b — realizes then blushes
c — cringes and runs away LMAO
playfully acts jealous, so you know it’s a joke but deep down he’s actually jealous
you two match each others vibes a lot — if one is sad, the other is sad as well
+ tells you your posture is bad when you sit like a banana or tells you to go to sleep early and when you don’t listen to him, he’ll show you an article that proves that (abc) and (xyz) is bad for you and says “i told you so.” 💀
Tumblr media
🐈 ⸝⸝ JUNGWON ˙𐃷˙

“hey how about we ring on that house there and yell “sheep for sale!” do you think they’ll open the door?”
“i don’t know... let’s find out!” 🤝
let’s just say that this didn’t end well..
also kinda bullies you (in a loving way ofc !!) pand teases you nonstop
either calls you asshole or love aHA
in conclusion: a very unpredictable relationship,, would 10/10 recommend.
very random but i feel like his love language is acts of service
Tumblr media
🐈 ⸝⸝ NI-KI ˙𐃷˙
oh look it’s our tsundere 😼
can’t go a day without dancing so you two have vibing sessions at 2am everyday ft. the others telling you to go to bed
you’re the only one that can make him soft lol
if you’re older than him, you would definitely take care of him like your own baby !! 
if you are the same age as him or younger it’d be awkward for him at first, because he isn’t used to taking care of someone younger, so he’d treat you as if you were his best friend at the beginning
you love to watch him dance !! it’s so satisfying,, LITERAL asmr.
pranks you 24/7. boy has NO mercy. will not care if the others will scold him later. he will do the prank smoothly (?) — doesn’t care about the consequences LMAO
probably sets your alarm to someone screaming or a cringy aegyo song <//3
wants to film dance covers with you !! you don’t have to be the best dancer either !! as long as you have fun ^__^ 
the other members find you really cute but are also vERY TIRED OF YOU,, two energized teens in a relationship was not a good idea ☝️
likes to randomly hold your hand and swing it around 
probably distant at the beginning of the relationship because a.) he doesn’t want to pressure you/make things awkward b.) he doesn’t really know what to do either ???
(if you’re not japanese or don’t know how to speak japanese) he’ll definitely teach you some japanese phrases and words !! introduce you to his culture as well :DD and he really wants to know more about your culture too <3
teaches you phrases like “sunoo is a dumbass” for the funzies LOL
randomly makes micheal jackson impressions,,, it’s hilarious LMFAO
