#cat in human body ace my beloved
Text
Someone makes a choked, shocked sound. Someone else yelps. It occurs to Ace, somewhere between the howling in his ears and the ache in his lungs and the taste of salt and iron flooding his mouth, that this is probably pretty surprising for his brothers to witness. Maybe even downright upsetting.
The thing is, Ace was wading into the jungles on his own as early as four years old. Dadan taught him how to do basic shit like talk and wipe his ass, but he honestly didn't have a ton of human interaction before meeting Sabo. And the thing about Sabo was that he had more than enough human interaction for the both of them. Ace learned some manners from Makino, but while Sabo was still around, there wasn't really any reason to get... good, at people.
But then Sabo died, and Ace needed to teach himself not only to talk his way out of trouble but also how to be the nice brother, how to treat Luffy with the softness he needed and deserved, how to gentle his hands and his voice and his words. So Ace did that, because he needed to, and it turned out to actually be pretty useful for dealing with people when he wasn't actively looking for a fight. So he stuck with it.
Which is all to say that by the time he'd joined up with Whitebeard, Ace was as close to tame as he had ever been. Almost downright domesticated.
Ace snaps his head to the side, putting some real momentum into it, heaving with all his weight until something tears. When he drops to his feet he springs right back up again, lunging. He spits out his mouthful as he goes, lets his jaw drop open.
The thing is, Ace is a child of the wilderness. He raised himself among that wilderness, and then he raised Luffy among that wilderness. He's a son of the jungle at heart, no matter how good he's gotten at pretending to be a person.
The sea-stone cuffs are chaffing his wrists. He feels tired and heavy, but he doesn't need his fire to be dangerous. Doesn't even need his hands.
Teeth find an artery. Body-hot blood sprays his face as Ace bites down, lock-jawed and snarling. Rears back and rips.
Another marine goes down. Ace spits out a chunk of the man's throat and is already rounding on a third. Notices, with a vague annoyance, that he's gonna need to find a toothpick -- there's a scrap of tendon or something caught in his teeth.
Mmm. Boar. They had pork for dinner, ah, the other night? Three days ago? Something like that, but it doesn't taste the same as wild boar does. And anyway, meat on the Moby is always overcooked. Ace is allowed to eat blue steak, but everybody always yells at him when he tries to steal bites of poultry or Sea King or whatever else while it's still tender and bleeding. This fight is giving Ace a real craving!
Duck. Lunge. Bite down, hard, thunder of a rabbit-quick pulse against his tongue, bulge of tender flesh against his soft palate. Iron and salt in his mouth.
Fear has a flavor. It is bitter and acrid, reminiscent of char, and Ace hadn't liked it much when he was young and still learning how to hunt. It stiffens up the meat, too, makes it kinda chewy. Somewhere along the line, he'd acquired a taste for it, though. He still marks it as a point of pride, his ability to hunt and kill prey without it ever knowing he was there, roasting something that is tender-sweet and gives easily under his teeth -- but the taste of fear isn't so bad either. Sometimes he even prefers it, gets a craving for it. Like wild boar, he hasn't had it in a while. Maybe he'll chase down his own dinner tonight.
Ace rears back. Muscle fibers split, skin stretches until it snaps. A heave, and a body crumples to the ground, gurgling. He gnaws kind of idly on his mouthful while he catches his breath, snorting blood out of his nose and straining his ears. Sounds like the fight's over, then.
Another lump of trachea gets spat into the dirt. Ace turns to face his brothers, counting heads -- good, it looks like nobody got hurt too bad, everybody is still standing! He grins. Ah, they're all pretty pale though, that's a little bit concerning, he hopes nobody's in shock. He learned from Marco that that can happen to anybody, even if they've been in a whole lot of fights.
"Hey!" Ace chirps. "Is everybody okay?" His wrists are killing him. Also, he really needs a shower. He's got blood in his ears, how the hell did that happen? But first he jogs over to where the others are all standing, clumped together, still just. Kinda staring at him.
Okay. Concerning. "You guys alright?" He asks again, lower. "Is anybody hurt? What happened?"
"Ace, man," Deuce says. His voice sounds kind of shaky. He drags a hand through his hair, fucking it up even worse than it already is. "What the fuck was that?"

He couldn’t stop himself from heading to Xiaoge, to lament his struggles with their Tianzhen to the other man that was also stuck with Wu Xie. Pangzi knew he wouldn’t be asleep. Lounging? Sure. But not actually asleep. He wasn’t capable of sleeping in. “Xiaoge! Of course, you were right. He’s fine. But this kid is trying to stress me out I swear!” He came into the room already complaining. "Hm." Xiaoge mentally nodded with a vague hum, not moving an inch.  "Did he say what it was?" Xiazi's voice came from somewhere in Xiaoge's hair, although his body still looked dead. ... Stroking the cat's silky fur, the Old Monk briefly glanced at the direction Zhao Yunlan had not yet come from. "He used to be my loudest disciple..." "He's really loud when he decides to take away my bonuses at the end of the month, Shifu," Lin Jing complained as he fit another box into the backseat of the car. "Mourning for someone who doesn't die. I think he reached a paradox I wouldn't know how to resolve." ... The classroom full of students waiting for his words reminded Shen Wei of his own time at college. He had a clear objective when he had decided to start that new life in the human world from an early steps, in the supposed youth that his ethereal appearance gave him. That objective had changed drastically because of a single decision, made hastily, in the pouring rain.
Chapter 7 of @tazzy-ace 's and my beloved co-written fic! Enjoy our boys!

Team Spade my beloveds...
♤◇♧♡
Jevil: I play the Ace of Spades.
Lancer: Draw 4!
Basalt: Jolteon, I choose you!
Silver: I tap my mana card.
Jimi: What the fluff are we even playing?
~~~
(Silver is holding Lancer, who is weak)
Silver: Call 911! Lancer's dying!
Basalt: What's the number?
Lancer: You seriously don't know the number?
~~~
Anyone except Jimi: Jello? More like hello. (sucks up a cube of jello and chokes)
~~~
Basalt or Jimi: Don't you dare be mean to me! Because I'll cry...
~~~
Lancer or Jimi: I'm 11, so shut the fuck/fluff up.
~~~
Jevil: So I was sitting there, barbecue sauce on my tiddies...
Silver and Basalt: (die of laughter)
~~~
Jimi: (cries from fear)
Lancer, not knowing how to react: Um... would you like a shovel?
~~~
Silver, Jevil, or Basalt in front of some mini snowman toys: Hail Satan!
The mini snowman toys: Hail Satan! Hail Satan! Hail Satan!
~~~
Lancer: Why can't I dig a hole to China?
Jimi: Your shovel would melt.
Lancer: What if I also bring a really cold one?
Basalt: That'd work.
~~~
Lancer, Jevil, or Basalt: Day 1 of eating every plant I see.
Lancer, Jevil, or Basalt an hour later: Something bad is happening.
~~~
Basalt: Please do not the cat.
Silver: Do not animals.
Lancer: It is forbidden to dog.
Jevil: Please do not the food with bare hands. Use the concern spoon.
Jimi: What???
~~~
Jimi: When will you four grow up?
Basalt: Fair point.
Jevil: When Hell freezes over.
Lancer: I'm literally 11. Do you actually expect me to be mature?
Silver: I'm legally allowed to drink in the USA. I've already grown up.
~~~
Basalt: The ground trembles with my every step. I installed the floorboards incorrectly.
~~~
Lancer: Watch this, guys! Smoke bomb escape! (throws a smoke bomb to the ground)
Lancer, coughing: God damn it... not again!
Silver, Jevil, or Basalt: A Level 50 Thief that can't escape with a smoke bomb... that's a rare sight.
Lancer: ...Shut up.
~~~
Silver: Every villain group has to have the smart one, the dumb one, the sexy one, and the gremlin.
Silver: Jimi's the smart one, Lancer and Jevil are the gremlins, and I don't know if Basalt's the sexy one or if I am.
Jevil: Nobody here is the sexy one or the smart one. We're all dumb gremlins.
Silver: Fair point.
~~~
Jimi: What is the worst internet search you've made? No context unless it makes the search worse.
Silver: "colorado gun guy" while I was at school.
Basalt: "how fast does a human body decay"
Lancer: "how to legally get rid of your dad"
Jevil: "guillotine ingredients"
Jimi: Jesus Christ...
~~~
Jimi: Why is it that whenever chaos happens it's always you three?
Silver, Lancer, and Jevil: ...
~~~
Jevil: Oil of vitriol? That's sulfuric acid! That explains the burning.
Jimi: Jevil did you get Lancer to throw acid at you...
~~~
Silver or Lancer: I'm bored and hungry. I'm gonna try these ghost pepper chips.
Jimi: What?! You don't even like habaneros and you're going for ghost peppers?!
Silver or Lancer: (already eating a bit of a chip)
Silver or Lancer: Not too b–
(the spice makes them cough)
Jimi: You good?
Silver or Lancer: Oh God... it burns!
Jimi: What did I tell you... do you need any water?
Silver or Lancer, weak: Yes. Paqui wasn't lying... those ghost pepper chips can freakin' hot...
~~~
Lancer or Silver: PSA: do not have ghost pepper anything and an energy drink at the same time. I feel like I'm about to vomit and it will be actual lava.
~~~
Jimi: Favorite Pokémon, go!
Silver: Ceruledge.
Basalt: Ceruledge. (actually their favorite as a partially undead, fire-immune warrior with a lot of angst)

Hey! Could i request the dorm leaders with an esper MC? Kinda like Mob psycho or Saiki k :) and maybe they don't really use this ability of theirs that much since in their world they're literally a teen who's trying to live a normal life(like Mob basically), so nobody knew about their psychic powers except Grim since the mirror said that he couldnt sense any magic in them(i'm pretty sure that psychic powers don't really count as magic but idk lol).
Feel free to ignore if you don't wanna write it! :)
 A/N: Ooh this was a fun one! I haven't watched Mob Psycho (I know about that fine ass blonde man-) but I have watched Saiki k and I loved it, still need to finish it tho jlafljhdas 
Characters: Kalim Al-Asim, Riddle Rosehearts, Leona Kingscholar, Vil Schoenheit, Azul Ashengrotto, Idia Shroud, Malleus Draconia
P.S: I’m so sorry this is so long omg but I guess this is a strong comeback-
Warnings: none except for language
Riddle:
-You wanted to stay as far away as possible from him
-Riddle was part of the trio of people you wanted to stay away from: Riddle, Vil, and Azul
-Riddle paid so much attention to fine details that if something was up, he'd definitely notice it
-But unfortunately you were best friends with the two goobers of Heartslabyul: Ace and Deuce
-And Riddle had started to pay attention to you and your habits, and something was off with you
-It's almost as though you tried too hard to be normal, like Jamil
-And he could never let something like that happen again, so yes he was watching you
-One day you accidently slipped up and was irresponsible with your powers
-Grim was bothering you since he got into a deal with Azul for tuna and they were standing outside with the twins, since Grim lost
-You told him to fend for himself and teleported, however you didn’t plan where you would go
-And you teleported into the Heartslabyul dorm
-What sucks is that your teleportation power was literally flashy with a bright ass green light every time you popped in somewhere
-Just when you thought you were lucky since the whole dorm was uninhabited...except for Riddle who watched the whole thing
-He was completely shocked, he didn’t know what to say other than “What did you just do?!” 
-You explained to him, and that just pieced everything together
-How you solved overblots with such ease, and that one day you had a “strength potion to test for Azul” was such bs!
-Riddle ends up keeping your secret, since he values your privacy but if you do something major and mess up then he will tell!
-”I understand but please be more careful with your powers. I need to institute discipline and you are no exception, Y/N.”
-He really does care about you and doesn’t want you to be found out 
-Goes the extra mile to cover for you often, and in exchange you help him out with things :)
Leona:
-He didn't really care about you at first but as you started to hang Jack and Ruggie, Leona started to get more suspicious
-Your scent had proven that you had some trace of magic, but Leona just couldn't put his finger on it
-So he sent Ruggie after you for a couple of days
-If you were a threat to Savanaclaw, Leona would crush you
-But Ruggie had only reported back that everything with you was perfectly normal
-"Just give it up Leona, they're just an ordinary human. The scent is probably weird because they're from a completely different world."
-But Leona still had that feeling, so he was keeping an eye on you
-You had made a deal with Crowley to keep your powers secret to solve problems on campus (it did cut repair costs and handymen costs in half so-)
-Your new quest was to rid the forest of the Angolo fungus that was manifesting into living fungus blobs 
-The one thing that gave you away was Grim, as you both had to stop by the Greenhouse to read some info about the fungus
-The cat beast was being far too loud, not understanding why he had to go and mess around with the icky fungus
-You simply replied “It’ll be quick, I’ll just use Hydrokinesis and dry out the fungus since they’re mainly filled with water. They become fertilizer once dried so we can just leave them there.”
-And there Leona was, ears perked up once he heard your voice
-Hydrokinesis? What are you talking about?
-So he set off, following you to the forest
-You started to fly, turning the once green and lively fungus to brown dust while Grim napped against a tree
-Leona for the first time in the while, was left speechless
-Once you noticed him, you realized you had to talk to him
-Confronting him later on, luckily Leona didn’t spill to anyone 
-He promised to never tell anyone about what he saw, and had no clapbacks for what you had to say 
- Leona doesn’t even benefit from this secret...besides mayyybee one day asking for your help if his pride lets him
-By the Great Seven why does everything have to not be in his favor-
Azul:
-Another one who you have got to be careful around, since he’s incredibly observant
-More observant than Riddle
-Azul noticed that you’re an incredibly average person, and were incredibly relaxed even during the most stressful situations
-And almost every single time whenever you were in a tight spot, it works in your favor
-Just how is that possible? Solving overblots left and right? Every single time you disappeared the infestation of magical beasts are gone? 
-One day, you were getting picked on by a three guys, their stature far above yours and incredibly strong. How could you possibly win?
-Just as he was about to scoop in a save you, you slammed one of the men into the concrete, taking on the other two by electrocuting them, the blue lightning buzzing in your palms
-They were completely knocked out, dusting off your palms and picking up your things only to face Azul’s eyes
-After giving an explanation of what that was, he was still speechless
-Azul at first was incredibly shocked and then since Azul is Azul... later on realized this had benefits
-He could just blackmail you to be his new bodyguard!
-Oh how he always manages to bend life to his will-!
-So you could just wipe his memory... or turn him into stone...nvm
-You’re now Azul’s arch nemesis since you end up saving people from his scamming and you’re basically untouchable and there’s nothing he can do about it
-But he does find your great strength admirable (and a lil hot, I mean what can u say seeing someone floating in the air with electricity flowing through them is a nice look okay Nate shut up)
Kalim: 
-Oh Kalim my beloved
-He just thinks that you’re incredibly talented and a little mysterious
-You have your little quirks and he has his! Who is he to judge?
-Until one day you wanted to make the load lighter on Jamil, since the berries that Kalim had requested for were only in season in one country
-You decided to just teleport and then come back with the berries so Kalim wouldn’t be pouty 
-You were outside the door ready to teleport when last minute you felt a hand on your shoulder
- “Oh Y/N you forgot-!”
-And there both you and Kalim were, in a berry field thousands of miles away from the Scarabia dorm
-Kalim screams, falling to the lush green of the field
-What happened?! Where are we?! How did you do that?!
-You quickly gathered all the berries at light speed, making sure that you got back before Jamil realized that you were gone
-Kalim wasn’t scared of you, rather impressed that you were able to keep a secret for that long, he could never!
-You’re already super cool, and on top of this you have otherwordly powers!
- “It must’ve been stressful living your life like this! But don’t worry, I’ll keep your secret!”
-Yes he sometimes asks you to perform some of your powers for him, sorry Y/N-
Vil:
-While you were his friend, he was incredibly suspicious of you
-Even though you wiped everyone’s memory, he still had the faint memory of when he was in overblot mode of you blasting him with a beam of light
-Vil was incredibly upset as one of his assistants had mixed up his items, and left one of his vital skincare items on the set of where they were filming a new commercial
-It was being shipped and would take 3 days to reach NRC
-His mood was horrible and you had to do something about it to give grace to the Pomefiore dorm
-So you went to the second story of the Pomefiore dorm, ready to use Apport (the power to pull anything before you) 
-However, Vil felt incredibly guilty
-He was acting like a child and he shouldn’t have taken it out on the people who he loves and values
- “Y/N, how I was acting was incredibly inappropriate and- is that my moisturizer? How did you get it?”
-Starts freaking out as this was impossible as it was on it’s way from being shipped from another country
-This was the last straw for him ther was no justification for this that wasn't done by some form of magic
-He takes you to his room to make you sit down and give him an explanation for this
-Once you finished, Vil understood but was still freaked out
-He cares alot about keeping your powers a secret and will cover for you
-"So my aport powers need to exchange something of equal value so... I exchanged it with that Scucci purse over there-
-"MY LIMITED EDITION SCUCCI PURSE?!"
-He loves you, but you're dead to him, Y/N dear
Idia:
-Before he knew you, he didn't really notice anything off with you
-A little quiet sure but he minded his own business, he had bigger things to focus on
-Until you hung around Ignihyde more often for a project, fixing a huge generator by yourself for one of your partners for a project
-They took a break only after you told them that they could and apprehensive went to go get food and water
-Anyone with eyes could see that there's an overbearing amount of energy flowing through the fairly large sized cube
-Wait, you were wearing no gloves, you could get electrocuted! Why would have your bare hands on something like that?!
-Just as he was able to yell, it was too late, your whole body was flowing with the bright blue energy... and then you let go
-You were walking completely fine, you went and held a random wire on the ground, placing the electricity inside
-The static from your hair was gone, and you looked completely normal. . .
-Just what the hell are you?
-He did hours of research trying to figure you out, even sending Ortho to monitor you
-Yet there was nothing, you were just a “regular teen” 
-Was ready to get S.T.Y.X.S on your ass- (is that too soon to joke abt my bad overblot boys-)
-Until one day he caught you again bending electricity to your will
-Is incredibly impressed with your power (lowkey wanting to experiment on you)
-After he realizes that you can read minds Idia is so damn frightened
- “O-Okay I promise not to say anything, just don’t tell anyone what I’m thinking a-alright?!”
Malleus:
-You were one of the only people who he trusted
-Malleus had always detected some form of magical aura that was otherworldly from you and it never seemed to fade
-And it wasn’t often, but it was almost like you knew what he was thinking
-Whenever he was deeply upset he felt a twinge of energy from you, and then you would insist and help him out with his problems
-And he flat out says “Are you reading my mind, Y/N?”
-You had never been directly outed like this before, you felt horrible 
-You never read people’s minds unless it was very necessary
-whenever Malleus felt deeply gloomy you felt like it was important to just read his mind and help him with the problem
-You explained it to him and apologized, but he wasn’t upset
-In fact, he was smiling?
- “It seems like we have alot of things that we’re hiding from each other. But... you always had the best intentions whenever you used your abilities”
-He let out a sigh and reluctantly admitted, “And, I know that I’m quite stubborn with revealing my feelings.” 
- “I will keep your secret as long as you keep mine, Child of Man,” the dragon fae said, you both shaking on it
- “I always had a feeling that you were special, but I never thought it would be something of this caliber...”

Peeping Tom
Kazuma Asougi × Author
Tumblr media
SPOILERS FOR THE GREAT ACE ATTORNEY CHRONICLES ~ Read ahead at your own risk!
Rating: E
Word Count: 1k
WARNINGS: cat/human hybrid, cat-human shapeshifter, pet/owner relationship, voyeurism, masturbation, pillow-humping, panty-sniffing, erotic fantasies, implied anal
Summary: With his mistress away on a typical weekday’s evening, Kazuma the ‘completely ordinary house cat’ has once again been left to his own devices, alone with only his own wildly inappropriate fantasies to keep him company.
Part I • Part II • Masterlist
Tumblr media
“Emily…”
The heavy scent of her all around me, lingering in her sheets and emanating from the pillow I had clutched between my bare, human legs, was making it all but impossible to keep myself from purring out loud. My laboured breaths grew less and less restrained with every roll of my hips.
The time I, her beloved pet, usually expect her back by was fast approaching, but my need for her was particularly dire that night, and besides: I hadn’t been caught once yet.
My mind spiralled out of control as I uttered her name again and again. The number of times I’d gotten away with gazing upon her nude form since coming to live with her was far too high to count. She never seemed to mind, whether she be getting dressed to go somewhere or stepping out of the shower to find me sitting in the loaf position on the bathroom counter, waiting to greet her with a slow, affectionate blink. She could be so naïve at times, but that was exactly what I loved most about her. She was completely oblivious as to how many times I’d fantasised about running my hands all over that deliciously soft body of hers. About how she’d croon and lean wantonly into my touch. She was adorable—oh how I longed to tell her so. Especially when she seemed so inclined to tell me the same at every single opportunity. “Ooh, you’re so cute! Yes, you are~!” If only she knew how it felt, maybe then she would finally shut her mouth for once.
My tail bristled out of nowhere. In my mind’s eye, her sweet smile had gained an edge of condescension. My back arched as said smile transformed little by little into a scowl. Just who does she think she is? She may be my owner on paper, but she isn’t the boss of me. I ground down harder, clawing into the pillow as if it were her ass and gritting my teeth with a recklessly loud growl. Stupid cunt. She doesn’t have a clue. I’ll show her.
Of course, the only outcome that my so-called ‘mischief’ ever yielded was punishment. Oftentimes when she’d catch me scratching up the furniture or walking atop one of the tables I’m not allowed on, she would storm over, pick me up, and shut me up in the bathroom without a moment’s delay. She wasn’t always so harsh, but still, getting imprisoned in there was the worst, even if it was only for half an hour or so.
And yet, I willingly continued to misbehave. Willingly continued to put myself in these situations. There was just something about the way she would exasperatedly strap my collar back on each time she came home to find I’d gotten myself out of it again. I couldn’t place what it was, but…
A curse rolled off my tongue, straight into the downy mass of fabric I was wrapped around. This wasn’t what I wanted. I wouldn’t think any more about the way she would roughly grab me by the waist with both hands, or the way she might then place me into her lap as she sat herself criss-cross on the sofa, occasionally even holding me there to deprive me of the ability to escape. No, I wouldn’t think about that at all. Nor would I start to think about the feeling of being engulfed by that addictively acrid scent originating from the vertex of her parted thighs whenever she would do that. I wouldn’t.
But it was a lost cause. No matter how hard or fast I rutted, I couldn’t shake the images out of my head.
My cock throbbed as I was assailed once again by the vision of that stern face she always wore whenever she scolded me. I collapsed on my side, but kept my increasingly frantic pace. “Naughty boy,” she would tut, tone laced beautifully with threads of authoritative disdain. It echoed in my flattened ears without mercy, driving me dizzy. I hated it. Nothing in the world could make me more frustrated than being treated like a mindless animal. But then again, neither is there anything in the world capable of getting me more riled up. Supposedly this was my reason for keeping the collar on this time, despite how it pinched and chafed at the incredibly sensitive skin of my bare neck. She had put it there, after all.
Now my growls were well on their way to devolving into outright mewls. My cheeks flashed with a heat that was nearly nauseating, but it was too late; I couldn’t help myself anymore. The imaginary hands on my waist strayed lower. I raised my twitching tail, the prod of her shameless digits vivid beneath its base. I’d seen her fingering herself before, which only made it all the easier to envision. Just the thought was enough to have my whole body bracing with goosebumps. I was so close, it stung. I’d been at this for so long, my tip had grown red with irritation against the dry pillowcase. But it wouldn’t be long now, judging by the burning sensation quickly spreading throughout my entire lower half and making my legs shake. The air in her room was so hot, it was all but unbearable. My movements were more frenzied than ever, and my whimpers had started merging into one and other. My eyes clamped shut. I felt the knot inside me tightening, and then—
“Zumie, I’m home~!”
The sound of my desperate climax was pulverised the instant it emerged by a violent intake of air. My body curled in on itself. There was no way to get out of this, no time to change back.
When she swiftly arrived at the doorway, what would she find but her precious feline companion naked on her bed, still panting vocally, and her favourite fluffy body pillow spattered with silky, white ribbons of rapture? I was frozen where I lay. I didn’t dare roll over and meet her eyes. Instead, I reverted to my four-legged self, then jingled off into the darkest depths of her closet.

Pokemon Teams for Fictional Characters pt. 2
Damian Wayne
(Also, I'm not including move sets because in my headcannon Pokemon do remember all their old moves. But humans choose to only use four)
For this AU I'm having the Wayne's own the Gotham City Gym, which specializes in Dark types. Most of the cannon events still happened. Just with a few tweaks here and there. (Dick's 20, Jason's 16, Cass is 15 Tim's 15 but younger than Cass and Damian's 13 because I love AUs where there closer in age).
Anyway here we go!
Tumblr media
First things first in the Pokemon Universe his alias wouldn't be Robin since they don't exist. Instead I think it would be Rookidee, since thats the closest Pokemon to a Robin.
His Partner Pokemon and ace would be a Gligar
Tumblr media
Name: Goliath
Gender: Male
Why: Gligar screams Goliath (his Batdragon) plus the coloring of his evolutions matches with Dami's Robin and Batman outfits
Story: He found Goliath while climbing a mountain for his training. At the time he was four and Goliath was a hatching. Damian ended up giving him some food, seeing that the hatching was hungry.
Grateful, the Gligar followed him hoping to return the favor.
When Damian's hand got broken on that same trip, Goliath was the one to help him finish his mission and get home safely.
Talia was impressed that Damian could tame a wild Pokemon without catching it, so she allowed him to keep him as his first Pokemon.
-----
Next he would have a Meowth
Tumblr media
Name: Alfred
Gender: Female
Why: This one has to do with its evolution. Persian are said to only be loyal to trainers it likes and that it takes a lot to get them to like you. Their also said to be prissy and uptight. This reminded me of Damian. How it took forever for him to trust his brothers and his own snobby attitude. Thus I think it fits.
Story: After coming to live with his father Damian didn't know how to act. He saw his "brothers" and father treating their Pokemon so different than how the League did. They all trained hard. But, there was something eles: warm praise for a job well done, asking for insight on a case (they had taught their bipedal pokemon sighn language) and comfort on a bad day. His father and brothers treated their Pokemon like... people
In the League Pokemon where the lowest soldier, lower than the slaves or concubines. They trained, ate then they had to and got in their ball.
He had been a little more lenient in his training with Goliath. When asked he said that he was still a baby and he had to take things slow in this stage or he might develop too much muscle mass and be unable to fly.
He had kept him out of his ball with the excuse of developing muscle mass at a proper pace.
He liked Goliath's company. The Gligar was a good companion. But on the same level as another person?
He had expressed these thoughts to Pennyworth, the only person in the house to give him a straight answer when he needed it.
Pennyworth had explained to him that some people love to hold power over others and that Pokemon where an easy target, since they couldn't communicate their emotions as clearly as people could.
"Think of Mistress Cain. She sometimes cannot communicate with words, but we know that she's intelligent. But some people see her as less than intelligent and treat her as such because of the power it gives them."
Two weeks later Damian would come across a group of teenagers attempting to shave a Meowth. The Pokemon was little more than skin and bone and crying out on pain. So, Damian broke their fingers and shaved part of their heads for good measure.
He kept the Meowth and named her after the man who taught him about the abuse of power.
---
Next, a Poochyena
Tumblr media
Name: Titus
Gender: Male
Why: These Pokemon and their evolution are ruthless with their pray, and only obey trainers with external skill.
Story: Raven gave Damian Titus as a gift. She said that she rescued him from an underground fighting ring (where the battles are to the death). He was still to young to battle so he didn't need much rehabilitation. The other Pokemon there though...
---
Now we have a Type Null
Tumblr media
Name: Heretic
Gender: ???
Why: This Pokemon was created in lab, and artificial designed for the purpose of fighting, just like Damian. True I could have given him Mewtwo, but that cat seems to fit Kon more.
Story: Damian's mother had spent years creating Type: Null with the purpose of being able to kill any target. As a last test she wanted to see which of her creations was suppirrior. So she sent the Type Null out to (try and) kill her son.
Damian, with the rest of his team, beat the Pokemon but couldn't kill it. He had long since vowed to wash the blood from his hands. Instead he offered his hand to it and asked it to join him.
---
Here we have the hardest to explain... Mimikyu
Tumblr media
Name: Habibi (I hope I spelled that right)
Gender: Female
Why: Damian is complex, he wants to be accepted and loved just like Mimikyu but dosent know how. Both try to mimic others in order to get that love, Damian his father and Mimikyu Pikachu. So I see this as Damian's spirit Pokemon in a way.
Story: He didn't know why it was so hard to fit in. Gods know he tried. But... little things confused him. Like how eveyone could understand each other without words or singhing. He had no problems with that on a battlefield, but in day to day life; it felt like he was on a separate server.
Like how Todd knew at breakfast with just a look that Drake was in a bad mood and how to help. Or how Grayson could audomadicly tell what kind of day at school the rest of them had withen a few minutes. Hell even Drake could tell what grunts ment what from father! Which ment good job, Which ment I'm glade your okay, or frustration either at them or at a case (Cass didn't surprise him, she had to learn how to communicate without words and watch body language and micro expressions).
School was no better; sometimes it was to load or bright othertimes, when everyone was doing a test, it felt to quiet. But, to much or to little, Damian was always aware of every movement, every sound. It was like the very instincts that saved his life every night where turned against him.
He turned to his nearly forgotten childhood habits to distract himself from everything around him. That only led to more whisper shouting and what even he could tell where displeased glares with a grunt of "fucking tapping" or a snap of "stop!" He knew it was disrupting but it was all be could do to drown out the noise or silence.
On one particularly bad day at school; apparently during one of their tests one of his classmates had had enough of Damian's tapping and decided to make a scene.
There was some yelling from the kid. A few cries in agreement. Before the teacher had gotten hem to settle down. He had demanded that Damian look him in the eye and when he finally did told him to stop with the tapping or else he would be sent to the office, Gym Leaders son or not.
He was the last to finish that test where he normally finished first. The silence had been to load!!
After that clusterfuck Damian finally headed home. He had texted Grayson saying that he was meeting a friend somewhere to work on a project and to not pick him up. In truth he didn't want his brother reading what kind of day he had had. He needed some time to himself.
That was how he found himself in a nearby park. It was filled with plenty of sounds that didn't suffocate him and the fall leaves where soothing to his eyes. Damian had Titus out of his ball as company, knowing that the pup loved park walks.
They had been walking for an hour when they came across a box set off just on the edge of the trail. "Free to Good Homes" was written on the side in black sharpie.
No sound was coming from inside, so he assumed that the had all been taken. Until Titus went closer sniffing at the seemingly empty box.
"Pooch Pooch"
"Hmmm... what is is it boy?" He asked as he walked closer to his Pokemon and the Box. Damian hoped he was wrong. It was cruel to leave a baby Pokemon all alone, especially since the weather was getting colder by the day.
Inside the box was in fact a lone Pokemon. At first glance it looked like a Pikachu. But something was off. It looked more like a doll than a living creature. If it wasn't for the small chirps it let out and slight way that it was shivering from the cold Damian would have written it off as a toy. No wonder it got left behind...
Damian reached down and picked up the mystery Pokemon as gently as he could.
"Come on beloved, lets go home."
He tucked the Pokemon in his jacket to warm it up before reaching for his phone to call Grayson for a ride home.
That night Damian locked himself away, even skipped patrol, and spent a sleepless night learning everything he could about his newest Pokemon.

That was inspired by this comic
Tumblr media Tumblr media

Finaly, for his last spot Eevee!!
Tumblr media
Name: Omni
Gender: Female
Why: I'm going to have all the Batfam members have an Eeveelution. This branch and the Batfam are both growing consistently. We all have our favorites but we love them all the same. So I think it fits.
Story: Everyone in the family had an Eevee or one of its evolutions. Damian's Father said that Eevee was the Wayne family symbol, it was potential, the ability to become whatever you wanted.
Though it surprised Damian that the Wayne symbol wasn't a Noibat or Noivern (Batman's ace) at first he eventually understood the logic in choosing such a Pokemon to represent the family name. That only made things harder for him being the only one not having one. Did they not truly see him as family?
On the one year anniversary of Damian arriving at The Mannor, his family through a small party. Pennyworth made his favorite foods, The Mannor was decorated in tacky streamers (Graysons' idea) and they watched some of Damian's favorite fims, their Pokemon curled up with them. His father had offered to take the day off from the gym. Until Todd suggested that Damian take on the challengers.
The Gotham gym was part of his heritage. Damian had been training for the day that he could finally help weed out the weak challengers just like his siblings sometimes did (think the battles you do before challenging a gym leader in the games).
On that day, if the challengers agreed to it, their final battle wasn't with Bruce Wayne the Dark Knight but instead his son. Most accepted thinking that it would be an easy win, that they had lucked out in not having to battle one of the stongest Gym Leaders in the League and could still get the Shadow Badge.
Those poor fools.
Damian was only allowed to use Alfred, Titus and Habibi since he used Goliath and Heretic primarily as Rookidee.
Damian fought seven trainers that day in 3v3 fights. Only two of them got the badge.
With the day overwith and the night rising, so did Gothams' protecters.
The night ended with exhausted body's and adrenaline crashes. Damian was ready to slip into a mini coma from the day he had but before he could head upstairs to The Mannor...
"Not so fast baby bat." Graysons' voice called out to him. "We got one more surprise for you."
Damian raised his eyebrow at that. What else could they do? His father came back from the locker rooms where he had been desuiting, it always took him the longest because of his "old man bones" as Todd said.
"Son," his father said "its Wayne tradition to get your first Pokemon when you turn ten years old. I missed that with you." He paused, eyes briefly shifting to the floor before they snapped back on Damian's face. "Luckily there's one tradition we didn't miss. When you've lived at The Mannor for a year or the adoption papers get finalized, I give my children this..."
He pulled a Poke'ball out of his poket and handed to Damian. "Go on son, let them out."
He did
Staring at him was his own Eevee.
---
AN: All of Damian's Pokemon (sans maybe Omni, I'm thinking of leaving her as an Eevee) will eventually evolve. Eventually.

Could you write more corpsewalker au, I really love the one you write and would love to read more?
*Vibrates excitingly on an astronautical level* Holy shit, fuck yes, I love infodumping about my AUs, let's fucken goooooo--
(CorpseWalker Infodump in the undercut.)
=====
First of all, let's talk about the Adeuce duo. Since they're, like, always with Yuu from the very beginning, it's only natural that they're the first ones who knows about Yuu's.. condition. (Other than Crowley and maybe the teachers?.. Including Sam, of course.)
Ace will definitely be the first one to find out, with the impromptu sleepover and all that jazz. And yes, he will have a mental breakdown. Knowing that the kid who saved your life and kept you from being expelled is actually some kind of zombie? Big fucking L, my dude. But don't worry, Ace will get over it. (Cue all the undead jokes. Yuusha is not pleased, my guy.)
And of the question on how Yuusha died.. It can be anything really! In my own personal opinion, I'd like to think that our beloved undead Directing Student has tragically murdered. By who, you may ask? IDK, but you have to unlock Yuusha's sad backstory first.
Other than that, it's free game! The CorpseWalker AU is made for my own selfish, gore-loving, dark writer heart. If it's either that Yuu died in a house fire or drowned in a lake, their death is completely up to you and me. (RIP Yuusha, they will never know peace. 😔👊)
I also mentioned that non-human characters could notice something's... wrong with Yuu. Like how the Savanaclaw students recoiling at their scent (because Yuu probably smells like a rotting body), or how Octavinelle students like the Leech twins are thrown off by them (mostly because they can smell the blood underneath their robes). Some Diasomnia fae students will also point out the eerie aura of death and despair around Yuu, especially those who are closely intune with dark energy.
Speaking of non-human students.. What about Grim? He's the one who opened Yuu's gate/coffin and the first character that Yuu officially met.
Well.. At first, Grim did notice that Yuu is strange, especially with the stench of blood and all that. But he was too desperate and focused on getting into NRC than actually figuring out on why Yuu feel like that. Of course, after cooling off, Grim.. finally sees Yuu as they truly are.
They're not some kind of fragile, magic-less human-- No, there's more sinister going on. There's this unmistakable air around that the feline-like monster sees, something dark, and cold, and oh-so malicious. However, Grim is a monster first and foremost, he doesn't know much about humans, and probably doesn't know the difference between Yuusha (the first human he ever met) and the other humans. Flaming Cat Son definitely thinks that Yuusha is like any other human, just a little different, like him. (Oh, Grim, you couldn't be more wrong.)
In conclusion, Yuusha is NRC's local cryptic and I will die on this hill.
And oh yeah, Malleus will definitely be put off by this.. zombie(?) walking around on school grounds. They'll still be friends because Yuusha will relate to Malleus' issue of people being intimidated by him, since technically they have the same problem too? (IDK, it's more like Yuusha have some dark vibes and people can see that, while Malleus is more of a power-level kind of issue.)
Anyways, have some random bloopers because I ran out of brain juice after writing this post.
=====
Malleus, concerned: Child of man, are you aware that your internal organs are spilling out of you?
Yuusha, in their death state: Yea, it just happens something. I've faced much, much worst before. Don't worry about it, Tsunotarou.
Malleus:
Malleus: Child of man, do you need help?
==
(During Leona's Overblot fight.)
Leona, sweating and panting: wHY AREN'T YOU NOT DEAD?!
Yuusha, literally standing on one leg with their ribs exposed: Because Death is a social construct and I hate society.
Yuusha: Also, can you stop with this sandstorm? There's sand sticking to my intestines and it's REALLY itchy.
Ruggie, who's trying to fight back Leona's spells: can we please talk about this AFTER the fight?!?
==
Jack, nervous: Hey, Yuu, can I ask you a random question?
Yuusha: Hm? Yea, sure.
Jack: Why do you smell of blood?
Yuusha: Oh, that's because I'm dead, Jack.
Jack:
Yuusha:
Jack: Th-That's a joke, right? Right, Yuu?
Yuusha: :) *processes to walk away*
Jack: Y-Yuu! It's a joke, right?! Yuu? YUU!!

A little bit of Love: A Sense of Family [Lilia Vanrouge & Silver x Reader]
Summary:  Being sick is terrible, now imagine being sick in a world away from home. Thankfully, you have friends who will gladly look over you in your time of need...and remind you that you don’t need to be home to feel at home, to have a sense of family.
Extra info/Tags: gender neutral reader, 2nd person POV, Reader is sick in this one (flu/cold), Lilia being his old man guardian self, cute family feelings, platonic goodness
-- -- --
A/N: The whole family dynamic going on in Diasomnia inspired this...and also my absolute LOVE for stories and comics showing Lilia's parental side.
Remember to pass by again tomorrow for another story!
Please enjoy!
[Index] [AO3 link]
-- -- --
A fever, sore throat, and full-body ache...with a side of stuffy nose
What a wonderful way to wake up! ...not…
You were confused about what possibly caused this, and certainly the uncomfortable heat and starting headache were not helping you decipher it at all.
You were quick to notify Grim of your predicament, to which the cat-monster took to calling Ace and Deuce to help him fetch some food and help.
It was in the infirmary where light chatter about your condition raised.
"It's still somewhat strange that [Name] fell ill, they've been holding up all this time." Deuce commented. With all the crazy things that have happened to you and how you came out unscathed, a sudden ordinary sickness having you glued to your bed was…. Funny, a little bit funny.
It's not like he wanted to sound cruel with that, but… a sickness having you like that, while facing off berserk Overblots left you relatively unscathed? You have to admit it's a little funny.
Still, whether they want to admit it or not, your beloved "Braincell Trio" were worried and wished to help get you up and running again.
They needed their precious friend to comfortably get caught in mischief, after all.
"[Name] gets so fuzzy when sick, yanno...a pain to deal with. I need the quickest remedy so I can get some peace back." Grim complained.
Ace chuckled maliciously, “Why don’t ya try and annoy them back? Used to do that to my brother when he got sick. Let ‘em get a spoonful of their own medicine, I say~”
As the boys kept waiting around for the medical staff to show up, an eavesdropping bat flew away to his dorm.
»»——  🦇  ——««
“My dear Malleus, I have things to ask you.” Lilia approached the draconic fae.
“Hm? And what is that which you wish to ask?” The dorm leader inquired back.
“The child of man you’ve befriended,” Wise old Lilia started, “You and them have had your outings to chat while nighttime shrouds you, yes?”
“You are correct.” Malleus answered.
Vanrouge continued, “The last couple of nights gone by have been on the wintry side, have they not?”
“Yes… What exactly is the point of this interrogation, Lilia?” The dragon demanded, eyebrows somewhat furrowed and arms crossed.
“The poor soul barely owns any other clothes other than our standard uniform, Malleus, did you think about how humans get cold easily? They’re not as hardy as us fae against the elements. They’re very prone to sickness, actually.” The vice dorm leader spilled, “So guess who woke up terribly ill on this beautiful day?”
Malleus realized his mistake. Even after having Silver near him for so long, he still tends to forget that humans are infinitely more fragile than fae, especially when referring to health. The dragon got moving and headed out the room, ready to make his way to Ramshackle dorm in order to apologize and take care of the sick human.
“Where is it that you’re headed, Young Lord?” Lilia followed the other fae along halls.
“Heading to where the child of man resides.” Draconia answered, never stopping in his stride. “I must apologize and help them into a quick recovery.”
“Oh! If someone to take care of your little friend is what you require, you can always count on your trusty little Lilia Vanrouge~! I did bring you and Silver up into fine young men.” The bat smiled brightly at his superior. “I promise to take utmost care of them. My special recipes will surely aid them in their betterment.”
Within the small lounge room Lilia and Malleus were currently at, one person snapped into attention once their sleepy brain registered the old bat’s words. Memories from their childhood flooding in, some of them made chills travel through their spine.
And what do you know? Those particularly frightening memories were of the times they got sick.
“Allow me to help then.” A voice quickfired.
Lilia was interested in who this person was, turning to look at the interruptor. “Ah, Silver! How come you desire to help take care of the human?”
“Shouldn’t it be obvious?” Malleus, too, looked at his ward. “Silverhair is human, as well. If anything, he is someone who knows better than us how the child of man feels this moment.”
“Very well then. Let us go.” Diasomnia’s dorm leader once more began walking.
Better not tell them the real reason he’s volunteering.
“No, I do not think so, Malleus.” Vanrouge stopped him in his tracks. “You have duties as the head of this our Diasomnia dorm. It would hinder our progress if you skipped your responsibilities to care for the otherworldly student.”
“Ahm… Indeed.” Silver answered back.
There staid the trio, seemingly deep in thought as to what to do now.
“Lilia...” The prince’s voice was laced with mild irritation, “I suppose you are right.” He relent.
“Then so it shall be.” The dragon decided by himself, “Lilia, Silver. I will rely on both of you to take care of the human. Go now, the faster the better, as they say.”
Caretaker and retainer packed useful things and made their way to Ramshackle dorm.
“Understood, Malleus-sama.”
To their surprise, Ace and Deuce opened the door before a kock on the door could be struck. The first year duo were making their way back to their dorm before stumbling upon both Diasomnia students outside the old broken-down dorm you called home.
“As you wish, Malleus.”
“Ah, Vanrouge-senpai, Silver-senpai.” Spade greeted.
“Good day to you, young ones.” Lilia smiled at them. “Do you happen to be taking care of [Name]?”
Ace sighed, “We tried contacting the medical staff in school, but apparently they’re nowhere to be found today.” He looked between the two with suspicion, “But what are you doing here?”
The vice dorm leader waved them off, “Oh, worry not about that! Our master has relied the duty of helping [Name] to a speedy recovery in our hands. I’m afraid it was his fault your friend fell ill.”
Silver, upon noticing Ace’s distress at Lilia’s words, settled the 1st year’s nerves. “Young Master wished to apologize to [Name] himself, but he has duties to attend to. Lilia-sama is in charge of preparing brews and potions to aid your friend’s symptoms and health. I will….try my best with cooking.”
At the words of the aurora eyed male Ace relaxed just the slightest (“Do your best, Silver. Don’t let [Name] eat Lilia’s cooking while they’re ill.” The memories of those Halloween treats still haunt him). Vanrouge, however, looked at the silver haired in surprise.
“I’m sure [Name] will appreciate your help.” Deuce spoke once more. “As much as we’d like to stay and help, dorm leader Rosehearts has asked for our presence in Heartslabyul.”
“Chores to attend to and whatnot.” Ace followed. “Well, good luck there, senpais!”
With that, both Heartslabyul students went their way, leaving Silver and Lilia alone.
“Hoho~, what was that? Deciding what one should do all by yourself, Silver?” The bat teased.
“I apologize. However, I’ve just recently started learning more recipes and wish to put my abilities in practice.” The ward explained.
Lilia patted the boy’s shoulder a couple times, smile bright on his face. “A pleasant sight to see you so assured of your decision regarding your old man, Silverhair.”
The fae knocked on the door before letting himself in, ushering Silver to follow. In the lounge, Lilia chatted quickly with the ghosts before both Diasomnia members headed up towards your room.
A light rapping on the doorframe alerted you and Grim of new intruders. Both servants of Malleus stepped inside the room, making their way to stand by your bed.
“Hello, Grim and [Name]. It is our pleasure and duty to aid you on feeling better and recovering your health.” Lilia spoke in a serene voice. “I apologize on the behalf of my master, for it appears it was his unknowing fault you fell ill.”
“Thank you. It’s okay, was too dumb and went into the cold.” You could barely rasp out, words chased by a coughing fit.
Silver was the next to talk, “Don’t force yourself to speak if you can’t. Allow us to prepare food and medicine for you.” His calm tone did wonders to ease some of your discomfort from the whole body ache.
“I do believe it is time for us to get to work, Silver. Come, let us go.” Vanrouge walked over to the door, sparing you and Grim one last glance before disappearing, “Rest for now [Name]. Grim, you shall be in charge of monitoring your friend, yes? Wait patiently for us, you have nothing to worry about.”
“I will be back soon with a remedy that hopefully helps your throat, even if just a little.” With Silver’s last words, Grim and you were once more left alone.
“Ya heard ‘em. Listen to what your caretakers said and try to sleep. You did pass a very uncomfortable night.” Grim curled up next to you. “Just for today I’ll allow you to have our roles reversed, ‘kay? You’re the master and I’m the servant… But just this once!”
A barely-there giggle passed your lips, “Thank you, Great Grim. You really are the greatest.”
Meanwhile, with Silver and Lilia....
“Do you need help with anything?” Lilia floated up to the human boy.
“Oh! Of course, of course.” The fae went back to his little bubbling cauldrons and pots with strange shimmering liquids. “If you do need my aid in anything, don’t hesitate to ask! After all, you know how I adore to experiment with cooking~!”
Seeing how the curious bat remained, Silver decided to explain: “I’m sure you know of this classic remedy for itchy throat, a spoonful of honey and lemon juice. Sebek takes it frequently… It seems to work, so I decided to prepare some for [Name].”
“N-No need to…” The aurora eyed boy whispered as he made his way up the stairs back into your room.
“Ah, old man… No, it’s fine.” The ward continued to stir something within a spoon.
He knocked lightly on the doorframe, like Lilia did earlier, to alert the small monster and human of his intrusion.
“Sorry for waking you up so soon, but I’ve prepared you some lemon honey to ease your throat.” Silver helped you prop up with spare pillows and blankets.
As he presented the spoon to you, he once more explained: “Sebek seems fond of this home remedy. With all the shouting he does, I presume it is quite efficient.” A rare small smile painted his lips at his own comment.
You yourself snorted, “Sebek seal of approval, definitely works.” After gulping down the thick liquid, you handed back the spoon. “Thank you.”
“Sleep more, rest as much as you can. I’ll be back with food in a moment.” Off he went into the kitchen once more.
“Did young [Name] take the honey well?” The wise fae asked as he kept stirring and adding herbs into his brews.
“Yes, there was no problem.” Silverhair answered. He promptly began preparing everything to cook up a warm, comforting, nourishing meal perfect to help you fight off that pesky flu.
☆○o。   ⚔️     。o○☆
The snoopy bat checked up on Silver. “Are you done with your preparations? It would be best if [Name] eats a portion of food before taking their medicine.”
“Have you finished brewing your potions and syrups, old man?” The young boy asked.
“Aye, everything is ready for dear [Name] to take. Cooled and bottled even.” Lilia stretched after doing such hard work. It wasn’t really hard work for such wise fae.
“Understood. I do believe the food is ready now. Let’s go. Take a bowl for Grim, too.” Malleus’ retainer firmly spoke.
Lilia gave him that playful, proud smile. “Silver really grew to be a fine young man. Look at him ordering his old man around without slight hesitation.”
Before one or the other could alert you of their presence, Grim’s little head had already shot up and sniffed the air.
“Food! I smell something tasty!” The cat exclaimed. His outburst helped wake you up.
“Indeed it is, Grim! We have brought both of you some warm food.” Diasomnia’s vice dorm leader cheerfully declared.
Vanrouge chided you with a smile, “Now now, beloved [Name], be a nice one and clean your plate. You need plenty of nutrients to get better.”
Ace had very much informed you of Lilia’s disaster cooking, and to think of eating it while you felt horrible made you feel even more terrible.
You dragged yourself onto your make-do backrest of pillows and blankets, begrudgingly grabbing the warm bowl food into your hands.
In your sleepy stupor, your brain could only register so much information. That is why your stomach churned and growled in discomfort while a drawled out groan left your lips at the bat’s voice linked to the mention of food.
The first spoonful reached your mouth and…
“Oh, look at both of you, devouring your food with tremendous speed~!” Lilia teased. “Glad to see you enjoy Silver’s cooking so actively. See that, Silverhair? You make for a good cook.”
A smile immediately stuck to your face. What a lovely meal! Easy on the stomach, comfortingly warm, and flavorful even for your dull senses!
Silver scratched the back of his neck, tiny proud smile shaping his lips. "Good to see you enjoying some food. If you wish for me to share the recipe, don’t hesitate to ask."
“Woah! Tasty!” You and Grim said in unison upon savouring the lovely rice porridge.
“By the way,” You smiled at the handsome boy, “Throat feels less scratchy, thank you.”
He only nodded in acknowledgement.
As you continued to eat your fill, a nostalgic feeling overcame you.
This situation reminded you so much when you would get sick back home. Staying in bed, sleeping to regain energy, eating a warm meal, and even the home remedies.
You sighed in happiness. “Even so far from home, I’m...starting to feel at home…” A tender smile came to your lips, “This feeling really reimnds me of... a sense of family.”
Your hand went to pet Grim while you admired the close bond Lilia and Silver displayed as they talked between themselves (with the occasional question thrown at you and the feline monster).
Like a frightened animal, you looked at Lilia with wide eyes. Shaking chills traveled through your body as you watched the jolly fae pour a spoonful of thick, shimmering, dark purple syrup from one of the bottles he brought up. You threw a desperate glance at Grim, but the chaos bringer himself was afraid to intervene.
“Have you finished now? Then it’s time for your medicine~! Made by yours truly.” He sing-sang.
Almost as if on instinct, you backed up into your backrest when Lilia brought the spoon to your lips.
After some time, the small fae returned his attention to you.
“Ah, I see... you’re a naughty one.” He suddenly turned serious. At this Silver became alert, making you even more nervous and insecure of taking whatever that mysterious syrup was.
“But do not fret, I have many a trick under my sleeve to aid me with difficult children.” The fae relaxed his body, taking deep breaths in preparation for..!!
A hand fell on his shoulder, interrupting his concentration. “Old man! I mean,” Silver cleared his throat from the sudden outburst, “Lilia-sama… Wouldn’t it be better to approach them in a friendlier manner?”
“Hm? And how do you suppose I could do that?” It was difficult to tell if the question was genuine or not.
Nonetheless, the aurora eyed boy suggested something. “Why don’t you try explaining what that syrup is for?”
Lilia pouted, seeing no reason to do such thing. “But is it not obvious? It’s medicine to help them get better… It helps dull out body aches and diminish fever.” He picked up another bottle, “And this one helps with stuffy noses and uncomfortable throats.”
“Home brewed medicinal potions, my specialty!” A cute joyous smile shaped his lips.
Vanrouge immediately perked up and presented the spoon to your lips once more.
However, you remained wary, this was Lilia after all…Still, you prefer trusting his word. If it’s his specialty, then you will go ahead and drink it.
Better than waiting it out until the infirmary staff is available.
Closing your eyes and hoping for the best, you downed it all in one gulp. To your surprise…
“Oh, okay. Bring it.” You spoke up as much as you could. At least your nerves settled some.
“Grape!” At your sudden loud exclamation, you shrunk into the bed and blushed.
“What was that?” Not only Lilia, but Grim and Silver were perplexed by your reaction.
Sitting straight once more, you pointed out: “A-Ah… The syrup was grape flavoured, very noticeable. Back in my world, thick syrups like that... taste horrible! Bitter, so bitter, not at all like fruit.” You had to clear your throat a little after talking so much. “Wasn’t expecting something nice.”
And the fact that Lilia brewed such potions made you even more doubtful, knowing how his cooking can go, and how the bat enjoys the awful taste potions tend to have.
“Old man…. Lilia-sama brews the best medicinal potions, they don’t taste bad at all.” Silver commented.
“Many thanks for the compliments, my dear children. Now, time for the other medicine.” Lilia presented the next spoonful, which you drank with no qualms.
Your little group remained chatting for some time. Eventually, you settled back down to lay down, accompanied by Silver, who accepted your kind offer to accompany you in bed after catching him nodding off. Grim, too, snuggled next to you in your pile of pillows. Lilia, however, prefered to float around the room and occasionally sat down on the couch he brought next to your bed with magic.
Everything settled for a moment of peace within this sickness.
Soon, your words got drawled out due to yawns.
Tummy full, medicine taken, and warm nostalgia hugging you close.
“Hoho~? Looks like the medicine is working.” Diasomnia’s vice leader teased. “Very well, children, how would you like if I recite to you a classic bedtime story to help you drift over to dreamland?” A small book materialized in the fae’s hands.
“I’m curious. Please do.” You accepted the offer while trying to rub the sleep out of your eyes.
“The story of the prince and the dragon…” Silver smiled in the midst of his more-asleep-than-awake state.
“Indeed, Silverhair.” Sitting down on the couch and clearing his throat, Lilia began, “In a land far far away, in times of ancient past, our story began with a King and a Queen… and a tiny royal baby…”
‧͙⁺˚*・༓☾ 🌸 ☽༓・*˚⁺‧͙
“Letting his sword fall to the ground, the Prince ended a million years’ conflict. He decided to befriend the noble dragon and bring peace to the human and fae kingdoms. And so, harmony reigned over the land. The end.”
Vanrouge closed the book slowly and turned to look at the sleeping beauties beside him.
A fond smile formed on his lips, “Just like in old times.”
Sometimes friends become family, with their love and care.
“Sweet dreams, young ones. Rest well and recover.”
[END♡]
Carefully covering his underclassmen, Lilia made his way towards the room’s entrance.
-- -- --
Hahaha….yeah, short stories haha….
Also...Chef Silver in the new Twst event, definitely part of my inspiration to put him in this fic.
It was so much fun trying to find ways to portray Lilia’s way of speaking (it isn’t super accurate bc honestly I have no idea how to write like that, but hey! Add a personal touch to your writing! This is my rendition of it)
Hope this was to your liking, I definitely enjoyed writing this out!
Anyway, I’ve been wanting to write something like this for Lilia! Family dynamics and parental/caretaker figures are so cute and heartwarming.
Do come by tomorrow for another story! We’re reaching the last ones!
Thank you for your support! ( ^  ^)/

Superman #84 (December 1993)
Superman takes a short Paris vacation! Like, one day short. What's the worst that could happen?
Tumblr media
Oh, man.
So, for the past few issues, we've been hearing about children being abducted in Metropolis. Now we see that they're being kept inside a giant toy house by some creepy bald man in Quasimodo clothes who seems to be obsessed with toys -- a "Man of Toys," if you will. Side note: no wonder the children haven't been found... all the articles about them are just gibberish! (See clip below.)
Tumblr media
The kidnapper thinks that these kids' parents don't deserve them, and that they're much better off here, in an underground hideout with a man who threatens to starve them if they don't play with him. (And I do mean literally play, with action figures and stuff.) Meanwhile, as these children cry for help, Superman is having the time of his life. While helping move a stranded ship with some huge-ass chains, Superman spots a sunken galleon with a treasure chest inside and fantasizes about keeping the booty...
Tumblr media
...before turning it over to the authorities anyway, the big boy scout. Then, he wakes up Lois at 6 AM and tells her they should go to Paris right now, which usually means your significant other is having a mental breakdown, but in this case they can actually do it. And so, after deciding that he deserves to use his powers for fun every once in a while, Superman and Lois drop everything and fly to France with super-speed for the rest of the day/issue.
Anyway: back to the child abduction! Cat Grant and her son Adam attend a Halloween party at Adam's school, but there's a disturbed weirdo in a hideous costume lurking among the crowd. Yes, I'm talking about Jimmy Olsen in his Turtle Boy suit.
Tumblr media
Shortly after that, a guy in a dinosaur costume (see, all the creeps are dressed as reptiles) lures Adam out of the party with the promise of "superb video games." What child could resist that? Of course, that turns out to be the kidnapper and Adam ends up in his hideout along with the rest of the missing children and, worst of all, not a single "Lextendo" console.
The kidnapper gets angry at Adam when he refers to the toys at the hideout as "old-fashioned junk" (he was REALLY looking forward to those video games), and even angrier when Adam tries to free the other kids. Adam is brave and puts up a good fight, but...
Tumblr media
And those were Adam Morgan's final words. "Uh-oh."
Next, we have a pretty harrowing scene of Detective Turpin letting Cat know Adam’s body was found, and Jimmy and Perry White taking her to the morgue to identify the body (most people probably wouldn't bring their former boss to something like that, but Perry sadly knows more than most about losing a kid). As for Lois and Clark, they were gone so long that the Daily Planet had time to print a headline about the murders. The issue ends when the lovebirds walk into the office smiling like two people who just spent the night fooling around in Paris... only to feel like jackasses when they find out what happened.
Tumblr media
To be continued!
Character-Watch:
And that's it for little Adam Morgan who, unlike the also tragically diseased Jerry White, didn't even get any post-death appearances. Adam went from a little kid scared of Superman, to a huge brat, to a character who was approaching likeability as of last week. That's why I hate it when DC kills off young characters like Adam or Liam Harper: in long-form storytelling, children represent potential. Look at how much Wally West or Dick Grayson evolved over the years compared to their mentors! Sure, there's a huge probability that Adam would have ended up disappearing from comics for 25 years anyway, but who knows, maybe we'd now know him as Teen Gangbuster or something. GangbusTEEN.
This issue also represents a turning point for the kidnapper, who is never named or seen clearly in the story itself but I don't think I'm shocking anyone by spoiling the fact that he's Toyman (it's in the cover, for one thing). In his last two appearances before this storyline, Toyman helped Superman save some kids from Sleez and looked genuinely sad to learn about Superman's death, so this is a pretty dramatic change for the character. We'll find out why he went from big softy to child killer in Superman #85 (but don't get your hopes up).
Plotline-Watch:
The most disturbing part of the issue, all things considered, is still the part where Toyman climbs into a giant crib and hugs a huge stuffed bunny. Look at serial killer Tommy Pickles here:
Tumblr media
Don Sparrow says:  “Even with the upgrade, Toyman is still just a man in a suit, a common complaint about Superman’s rogues gallery.” Funny you should say that, because I JUST shared an old Wizard interview in our Twitter in which Dan Jurgens talks about how Doomsday came out of his frustration with the fact that most Superman villains are dudes in suits (plus other interesting tidbits from the era, like how it was actually Roger Stern’s idea to bring back Hank Henshaw, so check out that link!).
Don again: “The entire Superman storyline of this issue feels like filler. Diving for buried treasure and soaring off to Paris -- it all feels like wasted time next to the Adam storyline.” I have a theory that the entire ship sequence is there as an excuse to put Superman in those big chains and make that Spawn joke (which I didn’t get until now, since I’ve always read this issue in Spanish).
Tumblr media
Superman says that pulling that big ship was "a little easier than expected" -- that's either another hint that there's something going on with Superman's powers since he came back, or a subtle dig at the state of American ship manufacturing.
Another adorable "window tap" scene for the books, and this is the sexiest one so far. Is it me or has Jurgens started copying more than just Teri Hatcher's hairdo from Lois & Clark? (For anyone who thinks Lois has gotten implants, I refer you to this clip.)
Tumblr media
While in Paris, Lois asks Clark if he's ever wondered what would happen if his rocket had landed in other countries. Don: “Clark’s conversation with Lois sounds like a bunch of concepts for Elseworlds stories. We eventually would see a Russian Superman, and a British Superman, but not yet the French Superman. (Hire us, DC!)” Yep, got my French Superman pitch ready, Jim Lee. Or just let us do Russian Superman again, since Red Son wasn’t even the first time you published that idea.
Tumblr media
Don once more: “Another thing that makes no sense about the ‘new’ Toyman is his resentment of technological toys—when in previous appearances he himself had deadly high-tech toys to vex Superman over the years.” I especially resent his hatred of video game consoles. Incidentally, I wonder what types of games are available for Adam’s beloved Lextendo. Star Lex 64? Mega Man Lex? Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles & Lex?
No one is more upset at Lois and Clark for going AWOL than Whit. NO ONE. He's so furious that his usually grey mustache turned black.

And believe it or not, Don Sparrow has even more to say about this issue. Read his section after the jump:
Art-Watch (by @donsparrow​):
I should start off my section with a big caveat:  I flat out hate this issue. There were several weird decisions made in the post-Death-and-Return era (most of them along the same lines of making the Superman titles more grim-and-gritty), and this story was one of the worst of them.  My theory is that, despite the praise and record-breaking sales of the Death and Return storyline, the Superman creative team felt pressure to have more extreme storylines, perhaps in response to the wildly successful Image books coming out at the time.  Between this story, and the upcoming “Spilled Blood” storyline, the Super books take a hard—but temporary--turn into more violent and upsetting storytelling—even though these stories are by the same writers as the previous few years. While death has always been a part of comics, and Superman comics was no exception, there is a jarring glibness and unfeeling toward the way violence is handled in these pages that is quite different from the stories that preceded it.  It’s made all the more jarring by the fact that well-established personalities suddenly veer wildly out of character, Toyman chief among them.  
We start with the cover, and while it is technically well-drawn (by the familiar team of Jurgens and Breeding) it’s also a very upsetting visual.  I think they should have gone with the pieta type pose with Adam and Superman, OR the scary badass bowie-knife Toyman (who apparently has a Cheshire cat smile now) but not both.  But the cover is a good hint at the tonal dissonance of the comic within.
We open with a splash of the now-extreme 90s looking Toyman, with his serial killer shaved head and spooky cloak, ignoring the pleas of hungry kids he has locked up in a tiny jail cell for days at a time (if that sentence doesn’t ring alarm bells for how wrong this is for a Superman story, I don’t know what will). For much of the issue Toyman’s eyes are obscured by glare on his lenses, further de-humanizing a character who was once one of Superman’s more empathetic bad guys.
Tumblr media
We cut to Superman tugboating a huge tanker with giant chains and it’s a cool visual (one repeated in the Batman V Superman film).  It feels especially out of place to focus on, given how upsetting this issue is otherwise, but throughout the whole comic, Lois is drawn smoking hot, especially on the two page spread on pages 9-10.
Tumblr media
The scenes depicting the actual murder, while still wildly out of place in a Superman comic, are well done, and give a real sense of darkness and menace, which I suppose is the intent.  Perhaps my least favourite visual is the Big Bird stuffie, silently bearing witness to what’s about to occur.
Tumblr media
The edges of the panels on get more slashy and off-kilter (to me, looking very much like the layouts more typically seen in Image comics of the day) and I suppose I appreciate the restraint of how little Dan Jurgens shows of the death of a child, showing only a bloody slash on a black background.  This is still a pretty baroque image for a Superman comic, but certainly less violent than it could be, given what is happening.
Cat Grant’s silent horror is well staged, and powerful in its way.   Lastly, Clark Kent bending in sorrow and regret is a powerful image.
Tumblr media
While this issue is handled marginally better, and more maturely than other comics on the shelf at this time, I still believe it is one of the biggest mistakes of the era.  Giving a long-established character an unceremonious death for shock value is gross on its own, but making it a child definitely crosses a line for me.  Making it worse is that, while the Toyman is a criminal and a killer, he has shown in past issues (a similar kidnapping storyline involving Sleez) that he genuinely cares for the well-being of children.  So for a long-time reader, this also felt like a betrayal of a long-established, fully developed character.   Adding to the ugliness of this is that Adam dies heroically, trying to free the children who have been caged, unfed, for days, but even in that regard, he fails.  The headline at the end of the issue confirms all the children are dead.  Adam’s death did not buy the other kids enough time to get away. It was all for nothing. Had Adam died, but the other children lived, maybe this issue wouldn’t leave quite as bad a taste. [Max: It’s weird because it’s all told in a way where it’s told in a way where it would make sense, narratively and within the story universe, that the other kids survived, but then it’s almost casually revealed that nope, they died too. A scene of one of the kids relaying Adam’s heroism to Cat in a future issue would have gone a long way.]
Superman doesn’t come off well in these pages, either.  It’s honestly the type of story they should just stay away from, because the more you think about all the calamity that is going on around the clock, the less defensible the whole Clark Kent persona becomes. Superman carving out time to romance his fiancée directly led to the preventable deaths of innocent children—how do you come back from that?
STRAY OBSERVATIONS:
I’m always looking for hints that perhaps Jimmy or Perry know Superman’s secret identity deep down, and Jimmy’s anger at Lois and Clark on their return to the Daily Planet offices would seem to give that theory some credence, as he’s as angry at them as if he knew Clark really were Superman.  Either that, or he’s ticked that it fell to him, and none of them to escort Cat into the morgue. [Max: Has this issue finally converted you to the “Jimmy is terrible” side now, Don?]
I don’t think I’m the only one who disliked the new Toyman—SPOILERS BE HERE: years later, in Action Comics #865, Geoff Johns retconned this whole story, reverting Schott into the criminal who over-relates to kids, rather than the child-killer of this story.  Apparently the infantile Schott, who speaks to “Mother” a la Norman Bates, is a robot so lifelike it fools even Superman, and the “Mother” he’s constantly replying to was the real Winslow Schott trying to recall the malfunctioning robot. [Max: That’s one Geoff Johns retcon I really didn’t mind, even if it felt kind of derivative of his similar “all the Brainiacs are robots made by the real Brainiac” reveal.]

The Devildom skies are always dark, only a slight change in colouration indicating the time. In the Demon Lord's Castle, however, the time of day was indicated by the servants and the tasks they were performing, their voices soft murmurs in the morning.
Diavolo didn't need to be woken up, however, as millennia of early rising conditioned his body to wake up at certain times. Today, he just couldn't bring himself to get up, his beloved human curled up against him, chest rising softly in sleep.
You probably should be awakened before anyone barged in, though, he thought.
Soft lips pressed gently against you neck, kissing a trail up to your mouth. He smiled against you as you stirred.
"Good morning, my princess. It's time to rise," he murmured in a low voice, holding you close against him.
P-PARAGRAPH ANON!?
Tumblr media
Uwaaa, this is so sweet and tender and I've been shot through the heart asdfghjkl
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPEATED ATTACKS AGAINST MY PERSON.
But... well, it can't be too much of a sin to ask Lord Diavolo for just five more minutes, right...?

His warmth radiates through his kigurumi as he holds you. Diavolo's lap is comfortable, his arms wrapped around you. One of his hands reaches for the plate of fruit, picking up the Devildom equivalent of a strawberry and bringing it to your lips.
He is gentle as he feeds it to you. You can feel his laugh more than you hear it, rumbling in his chest as he looks at you.
"Oh dear, you got some on your lips. Let me get that for you."
He lowers his mouth to yours, his tongue darting out to taste the juices left on your lips.
"Mm... delicious."
Your unspoken question is answered when Diavolo leans in a second time and kisses you properly, a gleam visible in his eyes that wasn't there before when he pulls back.
"You'll allow me to have another taste, won't you?"
Tumblr media
PARAGRAPH ANONNNNNNN--
You're going to kill this poor cat, don't you know!?
The audacity of you to use my favourite fruit, too... You really are lethal, aren't you?
That being said, I can't deny that this snippet filled me with warm fuzzies... and then terror. Just what do you intend to to, Lord Diavolo!?
"The kigurumis stay on, human..."

2019 review
@hagebutt tagged me in this - thank you! Also no, it’s not too silly for me! xD
1. How did you help to destroy the patriarchy and capitalism last year?
I guess I’m too capitalist myself to be a Destroyer of Capitalism (I’m glad I currently have the money to afford buying some merch lmao), buuut I started wearing mini skirts + thermal leggings a lot more this year than I used to even though the female half of my family told me it was “not appropriate clothing” (which I’d call internalised patriarchic thinking).
2. Top 5 things that made you feel like you’re truly enjoying the life of the human body you’re possessing?
1. Sleep. I’m grateful I have no problems at all falling asleep, but sometimes I’ve got so much stuff to do that I need to cut the number of hours I sleep during the week, so getting enough of it really makes me happy. 2. Going swimming in lakes in the summer. Swimming is healthy and a very enjoyable way to spend the evening of a hot summer day. 3. Eating out with friends. It’s great to enjoy a good meal and interesting conversations at the same time. 4. Using the bike to get from A to B (as long as it’s not rainy - then biking is pretty uncomfortable). It’s healthy and sometimes even faster than using public transportation. 5. The new, elegant winter coat I bought after years of wearing down my beloved old coat that I bought in the UK once.
3. What was the most disgusting food you ate last year? And the tastiest drink?
I don’t remember eating any really disgusting food last year. The tastiest drink... I actually don’t remember that either, but I certainly drank lots of nice drinks. (When I say that, I mean non-alcoholic ones. If it was only alcoholic beverages, it would probably be the dry red wine a friend shared with me and a few others last summer.)
4. What did you learn about yourself last year? A fact that blew your mind like Dobby blows Hagrid’s… nevermind
Can’t think of anything right now tbh ^^"
5. How many cats/dogs/sneks/¿people? did you befriend last year?
No animals, a few people.
6. Did you wake him up before you went-went?
Since my love life is non-existent, the only person to whom that could apply is the friend I visited last summer, and it would have been pretty useless not to wake him up before I went-went because I needed him to drive-drive me to the train station.
7. What is the meaning of life?
42, apparently. But honestly? To find something for yourself in order to give it meaning for you.
8. 53+79= ?
132. You know, 9 + 3 = 12 and 50 + 70 = 120. Then you just have to add 120 + 12 = 132. Elementary school stuff, easy to calculate in your head.
9. Where was your best kiss/hug/intercourse of the year? For single/ace guys: What was the most obnoxious way you ate breakfast? (You can answer both!)
I’m demisexual, which is on the ace spectrum, and also single, so I’m taking the second option: I suppose the times when I took my breakfast to my desk and ate it while listening to an audiobook before starting to work? I’m not really an obnoxious eater tbh, but my mum sure would have disapproved.
10. What do you want to change about yourself in 2020? (No stupid resolutions but genuinely, what do you wish for?)
Getting more organised in order to get more stuff done in less time, get enough sleep, and also get some spare time to write (which includes writing fanfics, commenting on my friends’ fanfics and messaging them/writing to them).
11. What do you want to stay the same?
My flat. I need to tidy up all my paperwork some more, but other than that, I love it.
12. What reminded you of your childhood last year?
Visiting my parents, I suppose? Of course the desk where I did all my homework and my old room remind me of my childhood.
13. T o p 5 b o o k s & s e r i e s / f i l m s
In terms of series, it’s definitely Good Omens (the novel is great, too!) and Vinland Saga (the anime, but the same goes for the manga which I’m also reading). In terms of books ... I started reading Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels (partly again, partly for the first time) after watching the Good Omens mini series, and my favourites so far are Wyrd Sisters, Hogfather, and Going Postal. I actually don’t remember which books exactly I read in the beginning of last year (and which ones in 2018 already), so the selection is a bit limited... ^^"
14. Did you try anything new for the first time? Everything counts, even drinking from 2 straws at once.
I don’t think so? But maybe I just don’t remember right now.
15. Owo?
òwó!
I’m not tagging anyone right now, but if you see this and like to do it as well, go for it!

Happy Pride Month ft. Secret
I haven’t done a Pride Month drawing before. I typically only ever draw my OCs so... Yeah. These characters are from my Secret Series: one relevant character from each book in the series.
Speedpaint Here. 
(Character Info Below the Cut from Left to Right)
Anjali Mina from Secret Switch (book 0.5). 
Anjali is a chaotic-neutral antagonist who has the ability to switch people's bodies. She does so with the protagonist Reika Junyin and the deuteragonist Tobias Dance, thus launching the story. Anjali becomes Reika's love interest halfway through the plot. Switch is intended to be a non-crucial introduction to the series' theme of soul manipulation.
Anthony Slaughter from Secret Zero (book 1).
Anthony could be considered the narrator of the entire series, being present throughout the entire series with the exception of Switch. He is specifically the sole narrator of Zero although the story revolves around his false love interest, Lucas. This story takes place over the entire Secret Timeline, therefore following all events in later books to some degree.
Derek Grey from Secret Reflections (book 2).
Derek is one of two protagonists of Reflections, the other being his twin, Dylan. Derek could be considered a character foil to Lucas, the deuteragonist of Zero. Derek doesn’t have a love interest for the sole reason that he just hasn’t met the right person. Any potential s/o would be under normal, non-plot worthy circumstances. Reflections focuses on and further expands on the concept of Liches, a Bodist type of necromancer.
Dais from Secret Curiosity (book 5).
Dais is a cat given human form. They’re a very old cat who is terrified of pretty much everything. Dais was given a golem’s body by Anjali as a dying wish to leave the house and see a child Dais had once taken a liking to under very specific conditions. The original name for this story was Curiosity Killed The Cat because the other protagonist, Danny, dug too much into Dais’ background and eventually broke Dais’ conditions.
Blake Novella from Secret Beloved (book 3).
Blake is the other protagonist alongside Rubee. This story actually delves a bit into the background of Terraria, the origins of people’s powers, and why Rubee and Blake seem to be immortal (they are). Blake and Rubee, in their youth, were engaged. As time passed, their romantic relationship turned platonic and both found new partners over the centuries. Blake is a traitorous, regretless man who spends a majority of this story mourning a romantic partner he actually really loved even though said partner’s power is Remembered Reincarnation. 
“I lost my husband this year to an illness.” “Stop telling everyone I’m dead.” “Sometimes I can still hear his voice.”
Sapphyr Mata from Secret Fate (book 4).
Better known as Phyr, she’s the protagonist Nyt’s older brother and can even be considered an antagonist to an extent. She’s the crown princess and later queen of the war-torn kingdom Nyeta. She becomes so stressed out in work that she essentially blackmails her brother away from his happy family in order to help her. I always have a self-insert in every story and Phyr is the one for Secret because I am also ACE.

Whispers in the Dark - Chapter Eight
Colourful Friends
The morning sun blasted straight into my eyes with a sniper’s precision, waking me up from the sleep that I found myself entering shortly after coming home from one of Wilford’s interviews. The most recent one was about some sort of club and the weird occurrences that happened, the interviewee was the president of the club who was rather dismissive of anything odd happening but as Wilford’s interviews typically go, it went to hell and the reporter and I ended up in a weird space-like void to which the man had to teleport us out of.
It had been about a week since the incident at the manor and I couldn’t bring myself to tell the man that the broken soul of his beloved was following me around, quietly telling me stories of the three boys when they were children. It would be so much easier if I could just find what took her body and then help her get it back.
Are you okay? She asks softly as always as I lay on my bed, glaring at the window that dared to let sunlight break through it. “I’m fine...!” I mutter out as I turn away from the sun, shielding my eyes as I do so. Celine was colder than Damien for the most part but still had a very caring side, she just needed to be around the right people. A groan left my lips as I pull myself off of the sofa that I had collapsed on the previous night. My nights were rather dreamless, a gift from Celine so we wouldn’t have to deal with Dark.
Anti, or rather Ace as I had to call his feline form once Wilford saw him after attempting to collect me from the flat several days ago, was laying on the window sill enjoying the warmth the sun had to offer like an actual cat.
The Septic egos still kept dropping by even after Anti’s multiple attempts to get them to stop showing up. Their antics always made me laugh so I didn’t mind their visits. Heck, even the Iplier egos started to randomly show up from time to time, it was mostly just Wilford though as he wanted to be a bigger part of my life. It’s because you were a big part of Damien’s life. Celine had explained when I began to question it.
‘Ace’ let out a small groan like sound before making his way over to me, jumping up onto my shoulders just as he always did. A small purr sounded out as he nuzzled me in a lazy attempt of saying hello, turns out for a glitch, he was actually extremely lazy when he had the chance not that it was really a problem, it just made things easier on me.
“Hey, bud.” I greet the feline as I made my way over to the kitchen only to freeze as a suited man made his way around my kitchen, humming happily to himself as he did so. “Bim?” I call out to cause the show host to freeze in his spot. “Okay… Well, I’m guessing today is going to be even more energetic than yesterday…” I mutter to myself as I watch the man go back to frying what seemed to be burgers on my old grill. I don’t even want to know who he got that meat from. I thought to myself as I made a 180 and left the kitchen. I noticed a small cloud of pink smoke and rushed towards it, knowing it was my way to get to the HQ.
“Hello there, old chap!” My favourite moustached man called out as he pulled me into a crushing hug, nuzzling his face against the top of my head as he did so.
I let out a giggle, wiggling my legs around as he pulled me up into the air. “Hey, Wil! How are ya?!” I chirp out, enjoying the hug as I always did. Wilford always seemed to have the best hugs, mainly because they were so warm and you could always tell that he was being heartfelt. Wilford went on to tell me that he was doing good but Dark had begun to get angrier quicker if that was even possible. That might be my fault. He’s been trying really hard to drag you into the Void… Celine muttered as she thought over Wilford’s words. She was still struggling to believe that Wilford was her darling William but she wasn’t letting it get to her.
Wilford dragged me off to his office, making sure to avoid the other egos as he didn’t want to be slowed down. Something he typically did but he didn’t seem his typical hyper self, usually that meant he was back to acting like the Colonel but Celine would’ve let me know of William’s mannerisms before Wilford even noticeably changed like she had done before. I wonder if everything’s okay… I thought, curious as to what could be wrong with my dear friend. “Everything alright, Will?” The DA asks for me, it was like having another subconscious rather than just having a ghost talk to you - something I was used to now thanks to Celine.
Wilford gave me a swift nod as he made me sit down on the sofa, he seemed to ignore my questioning gaze as he sat down at his desk and glared at the paperwork that Dark had placed on it for him to do. The DA… Celine started, she had been examining the bond between the DA and I since she joined the party. Apparently from the Seer’s point of view the DA had been with me since before I stepped into the manor but despite the two being in similar positions the Seer couldn’t speak to her which ended up causing a lot of frustrated rambles when I was stuck in a situation where I couldn’t respond to something she had said.
It’s weird, to me at least, being a soul myself. That there’s only one soul present in your body. She mused as she always seemed to once she got thinking. Maybe… Just maybe… There’s a chance you really ARE her. I haven’t sensed her in a long time before your visit, after all. The Seer stated coldly as she thought, it kept reminding me of Blue Google’s way of speaking considering the android had a habit of multiplying whenever he was forced to multitask and only went back to his singular form once he was done. Oliver, the yellow topped Google, was the one that seemed to care for others but there was a chance that he was better at mimicking human emotions than the other droids. Maybe your magician friend could help in communicating with her? Celine asked.
Marvin? Maybe he could but Anti would try to avoid us being alone with him like he does with every other ego that isn’t him or Wilford. I reply, rather glad that Celine could read my thoughts in situations like this. I lay down on the sofa, watching the ceiling fan spin slowly as the sound of a pen scratching on paper filled the room - The Colonel was doing his paperwork. Let’s go speak to him once we get the chance. Celine’s voice echoed out in my head, making it ache slightly as it always did. I got used to the headaches shortly after she started to talk more regularly, however.
I hum quietly in agreement with the Seer’s plan before looking over to the Colonel. He always looked so serious but not dangerously so, which was a good thing - for everyone. “Old chap…” William spoke out softly, looking up and regarding me gently. “Did he ever tell you? Damien, I mean. He always spoke highly of you.” A small smile etched it’s way to the corner of his lips as he thought back to his old friend. “He adored being around you and well… It wouldn’t really be fair of me to expose any feelings when the main man isn’t here to admit them. It could be considered slander if it weren’t true!” He exclaimed, chuckling gently as he did.
“I’m not sure about what I could have done to make him speak so highly of me, Colonel. We were friends and I always made sure to act accordingly…” The DA spoke out, recalling how she kept her feelings from showing for the sake of her friendship with the man. “Just like I’m doing with you. Acting accordingly to what our relationship is.” She sounded rather melancholy, most likely at remembering the past.
It’s a shame Dames and I lost touch for a while… I’m sure I’d of heard plenty of stories… Oh well, the past is the past and unfortunately, the DA has no place in this world. Not when you exist. Celine’s words were ominous and sent a chill down my spine. “Bully…! You really were never told…? D-do you remember the poker night? The day we met?” The Colonel stuttered out, Celine’s previous stories coming to mind as I figured that he was shocked at the lack of remembrance, being someone who could remember quite a bit when from when he was intoxicated.
The DA narrowed my eyebrows in frustration and confusion as scenes of that night flashed through my mind. Bits and pieces were cut and some of the events seemed jumbled but nothing indicated a reason to remember the night except for the day after. “Unfortunately, it’s all a bit of a blur. I do remember Dames doing his infamous party trick, and flipping the bird at poor old Ben the butler rather clearly though. I could only do so much in my muted period.” She, or rather I stated. It was all a bit confusing, I was a version of her after all. “What were you hoping for me to remember, old friend?” I ask, my voice keeping the same vintage formal tone that the DA had whenever she used to speak, and tried her best to replicate now. It was a bit more difficult with the accents as I spent a good amount of time in England while she spent most of her adult life in America.
“O-oh… just something that happened pretty early on into the night. You and Damien sure got sloshed quickly didn’t you?” William laughed out, glancing off to the side as he remembered the events clearly. A small smile on his face indicated that what he was remembering was a rather happy moment for him. “With all those stories… I never figured he’d choose that night…” Will muttered to himself, not really caring if I heard the sounds of it. His attention soon drew back over to his paperwork, his face falling into a scowl. “Oh damn it all!” He cussed, flinging the paperwork to the side before standing up in a rush. His arms crossed and pouted, the air the Colonel naturally held dissipated, signifying one thing. “I left my jacket at yours, I just remembered!” Wilford was back.
A chuckle left my lips as I sat up. “Is that so?” I questioned, the DA going mute again. I watched as Wilford nodded his head rapidly, another chuckle bubbled its way up my throat. “Well then, let’s go get it!” I cheered out, the energy of the reported was practically infectious as I felt myself become more energetic.
In a puff of light pink smoke, Wil and I were back in my flat.
Ace was busy glaring at a certain orange glasses wearing android who in turn was busy trying bat away the burgers away from the man who made them. The game show host kept the android at bay by using his foot to keep him at a distance as he tried to satiate his hunger.
“Um…” I was rather confused about the situation but by this point, I had learnt not to question the men that now were in most parts of my life. “Bing, what’s going on?” My question alerted the two other egos to mine and Wil’s presence, the two breaking away in shock. Bim took the opportunity to scoff the burger down while Bing was distracted by trying to explain the situation. Apparently, the game show host recently aired another one of his shows and they always seemed to go the same way, which explained why he was grilling burgers earlier. I cringed slightly at the thought as I told Bim that he could keep my grill, I was very grateful that it was a portable grill that I owned.
“So, bruh, Dark’s still got a large stick up his ass or what?” Bing asked, his question directed towards Wilford. Wil just gave a small nod before walking around, trying to find his striped jacket. “Looks like I’m staying here then, the ass nearly ripped my arm off the last time I spoke to him, good think Googs repaired the damage that he did do…” Bing said out loud, looking around as he did as if he was trying to memorise surroundings.  
Bim sighed and shook his head as he watched the two more colourful egos do whatever they wanted in my flat. “The doctor and I have a theory that he’s acting out because the girl he likes isn’t paying him enough attention. We have the Jims looking into it.” The talk of the other reporter egos brought memories of two people sneaking around outside my flat, it was odd but Anti didn’t seem to be bothered by it so I didn’t check it out.
A huff left my lips once I put the pieces together. “So that’s why I’ve felt like I’m being followed recently, the Jims are investigating me!” I cry out in frustration, startling the suited ego next to me. Bim threw me a nervous smile, scratching his cheek gently as he did so, a small mutter of ‘surprise’ left his lips before his gaze fell onto the window that overlooked the street I lived on. My eyes followed his and soon landed on the twins that were peeking through the window, probably using the small balcony to keep themselves up. “Get your arses in here!” I hissed out, my patience with the troublesome egos had started to run thin even if I did adore them.
In a scramble, the Jims made their way into the flat via the now opened window. Bim and Bing had walked off to try and held the senior reporter find his jacket.
I proceeded to scold the Jims, making sure that they got the point that I didn’t enjoy being followed and that even if Dark was upset that the girl he liked was ignoring him, that girl wasn’t me as he most likely hated me for siding with Mark. They finally got the point and soon the twins and I found ourselves playing Mario Kart as we waited for the other three egos to find that jacket. What on earth could be taking them so long? I thought, hoping Celine would have an answer but all she did was mutter that she was wondering the same thing.
A few moments went by before my front door swung open, hitting the wall loudly. “Lass, guess who came to visit?!” A loud Irish voice shouted out. Sean! I thought rather panicked as I looked between the twins busy playing the video game and the Irishman. “What the fuck…?” He muttered out as he himself looked at the reporters. He rubbed his eyes quickly, most likely not believing what he saw.
“Surprise?” I question as I walk over to my friend. “It’s a bit difficult to explain but… Um…” I motion Ace to come over to our position, I give him a small nod and suddenly a familiar green fog wraps around us. When the fog dissipated the three of us stood in an unfamiliar park, Anti in his human form leaned against me, waving at Sean with a cocky smile on his face.
Sean didn’t have much to say as he slowly fell backwards, fainting at the sight of something he believed only to be a character. “Timber!” Anti jokingly called out as the YouTuber collapsed to the ground. The imp glitched over to the man he shared a face with, waving his hand around to see if Sean was joking. “Well, he’s out for the count!” A glitched out laugh sounded as the imp doubled over, holding his stomach.
A sigh left my lips as I placed myself next to the unconscious man, pulling his head onto my lap. “Anti, why are you so protective of me?” I asked softly, my hand gently running through Sean’s hair as I did.
The imp backed away in thought, it was possible that he hadn’t really thought of the reason and instead just acted on impulse. Anti gave a small shrug as he turned to look away from me. “I’m not sure… You’ve just been really nice to me, for no reason as well. I guess that I didn’t want to lose that.” He answered, a slight edge to his tone.
Liar, he knows exactly why. Celine hissed out slightly, her usual cool tone completely gone. I’ve sensed his presence at the manor before when the DA- The Seer cut herself off. Suddenly my body began engulfed in a warmth, similar to the hugging sensation from the manor. It is you… Celine muttered out, her voice far quieter than I was used to. It was rather upsetting to hear her, it sounded like she was about to cry. Don’t cry Cel… I thought as I wished I could hug the poor woman back.
It took a few hours to get Sean back to the flat as Anti left shortly after I asked him why he was protective and Celine had become silent after her hug so the hours it took to carry the Irishman back was a rather lonely experience.
My favourite bean was resting on the sofa as Wilford helped me clean up the mess that the Jims had made trying to help Wil find his jacket. Turns out he had hung it up in my wardrobe for safe keeping but no one even considered it to be in there until Dark showed up. Said demonic being was in my armchair reading a newspaper, looking rather smug to even be in my flat.
My gaze shifted from the demon to my pastel friend to see him giving me an apologetic smile. He had let Dark in so he could help find the striped article of clothing, something he couldn’t stop apologising for as he knew Dark would use his new permission for drop in at any time.
A groan alerted everyone to the fact that Sean was beginning to wake up. I share a look with Wilford before our gazes feel onto an unamused Dark. “We’re not leaving simply because your friend has woken up, he’s already seen Anti and the Jims, what’s the harm in seeing Will and me?” He explained as he stood up and walked over to the man lying on the sofa. He leaned over slightly, his arms firmly behind his back as he examined the man in front of him. “I just don’t see why you’d choose to make friends with someone like this, dear.”
‘Dear’. The word made me practically cringe coming from Dark’s mouth, the false warm tone disgusted me as it sounded so much like Damien. You won’t win me over with sweet words and pet names. I thought to myself, glaring at the suited man as I made my way over. “Who I make friends with is none of your business, Darky.” I purr, a sickly sweet smile on my face as I did so. If he didn’t have the siblings' souls attached to him, I’d punch him. I run my hands through Sean’s hair again as he began to awake properly. “Hey Bean, how are you feeling?” I ask softly.
“Ugh… like my head hit a rock…” The Irishman groaned out, holding his head gently. “What happened?” He asked, his eyes remaining closed as he sat up.
A small sigh left my lips, he didn’t actually hit a rock when he fainted the ground was just hard but exaggeration was a common thing for people to do. “What do you remember?” I question, my voice still soft as I continue running my hands through his hair as a comforting gesture.
Sean’s lips pursed as racked his head. “Honestly? Just this really weird dream. I decided to visit you, which was obviously true. But um, I saw two Mark’s playing Mario Kart and then your cat teleported us to a random ass park where Anti showed up! It was freaking weird!” He exclaimed, looking up at me but soon his face paled as he noticed the grey man that stood behind me. “It wasn’t a dream, was it?” He asked, quickly looked away after he noticed me shaking my head. A gulp left his throat as he noticed the moustached man staring at him.
My gaze fell onto Wilford, noticing the man wave happily at the Irishman not bothered by the fact that he was being seen by someone who shouldn’t know of his existence.
A few moments went by as I watched Wilford interact with Sean, Dark and I only stepping in a few times when the reporter tried to interview my friend considering we knew how that it could turn out.
He’s so cute! I just want to hug him!
A warm smile made its way to my face as I walked over to the pastel man, pulling him into a hug. “Wilford, has anyone told you that you’re adorable?” I asked innocently, nuzzling my face into his chest. A small but happy squeak left throat as he proceeded to bear hug me and spin me around. Laughter would have left both our lips if the sound of static didn’t take over the room. Well someone’s being pissy.
Dark cracked a strained smile over at the pair of us before teleporting me into his arms. “Her and I need to talk. Alone.” He stated coldly as a thick blanket of black smoke wrapped around us. It seemed to emit an icy chill which stroked my cheeks. The sensation was terrifyingly familiar. Damien? My thoughts asked as if they were trying to reach him like they used to in the void.
The chill became stronger for a moment before disappearing completely once Dark laid a hand on my shoulder.
An involuntary shiver ran up my spine as I shook from the now missing cold, the mild chill from Dark’s hand radiated through my hoodie. A sigh left his darkened lips as he stood in front of me. “The past can never seem to leave us alone, my dear.” He muttered, gazing at me gently. It was a look that made my heart pound in my chest as it brought forward memories that I swore were not my own.
My lips pursed in annoyance as that damned pet name was spoken once again. “You said you wanted to talk…” I started, my gaze rather defiant in nature as I looked up at the demon. He did something to Dames, I just know it! My thoughts hissed out as I recalled the chilling hug from moments ago, the idea of Damien being hurt made my blood boil and my temper rise.
“So let’s talk.”

Being Alone, Anaconda, and Animals: Chase ID 17113 2 yrs old, 62.5 lbs aitin @ Manha AC Very beautiful boy, who is a little too thin and LOVES treats Enjoys to be around people. Likes to play with toys. Friendly and waggy toward a young female trough the fence TO BE KILLED - 4/6/2018 He knew the comfort of an ACC foster home for a very short time, and now he is thrown back into the shelter. How confused must this incredibly sweet boy be? Share him now and widely. He dies 4/6 if no one picks him. Terrible!!!! :-( Chase is a magnificent young boy at the Manhattan Care Center who LOVES his treats and because he is a little too thin, he can eat a lot of them. He has several sores on his paws, so he prefers to stay in the yard and on the grass rather than walking on the street. Chase doesn`t guard his treats or the beloved toys he loves to play with. He brings them back to his volunteer willingly. While he sits on command occassionally Chase might still need a little training, but he is very pleasant and a willing student so he would probably be easy to train. Please share sweet Chase for a happy home with someone who can help him to become the perfectly well-behaved gentleman he is meant to be. And someone that will promise to love him forever :) A volunteer writes: I absolutely LOVE Chase…. He is not a “kennel dog” and you might get the wrong idea hearing him sometimes barking in his den. He just wants to go out and be among us, humans. He is very active and beams in the company of people and other dogs. He is quite cute too with facial markings that seem to give him a permanent smile. He is so playful, runs, jumps after a ball or a toy, holds a few in his mouth and brings back, soliciting more play from his caretaker. He is cuddly and loving and it is very obvious that he was a family dog, a little boisterous may be but one i would be glad to have in my home. Chase, besides the fact that he does not like cats, comes with wonderful recommendations having lived happily with young children, mingling nicely with other dogs, said to be house trained and properly behaved in the house and with strangers, and extremely playful. I could go on and on about him… The best is to come and meet him, watch him in action in the yard and see what a great pet he is. Chase is at the Manhattan Care Center, dreaming to be yours, for ever… VIDEO: https://youtu.be/9H8EK0VI4Kg CHASE ANIMAL ID 17113 MANHATTAN ACC Estimated to be 2 yrs old, 62.5 lbs TAN / WHITE MALE, Large Mixed Breed Cross My health has been checked.

Summary: Chase quickly approached the assessor in the assessment room with a soft body. He jumped up a few times in a social manner. Chase allowed all handling and displayed no concerning behaviors during his assessment. Summary: The behavior department recommends that Chase be the only resident dog in a future home. Chase was initially observed to display social, playful behavior when introduced to the female helper dog. The previous owner of Chase described his past behavior toward dogs as "friendly". During his stay at our care center, Chase has displayed increasingly concerning behavior around other dogs. He has been observed to hard bark, growl, and lunge toward other dogs on leash. During off leash play, Chase immediately escalated to snapping and biting a dog that offered correction for exuberant play behavior. Due to increasing levels of frustration observed around other dogs, and observed rapid escalation to biting in social settings, it is recommended that the assistance of a trainer or behaviorist be utilized before following up on Chase's behavior around other dogs. Summary (1): 12/19: When introduced off leash to a female dog, Chase engages in exuberant play. Summary (2): 2/10: Chase rushes into the pen and when the female dog offers correction, he escalates to snapping and biting. Date of intake: 28-Dec-2017 Summary: Chase had a loose body and jumped up to lick the counselor's face. Date of initial: 29-Dec-2017 Summary: Chase was playful, active, and allowed handling. ENERGY LEVEL: Chase is described as having a high level of activity. He is a young, enthusiastic, social dog who will need daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised. We recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and hide-and-seek games, in additional to physical exercise, to positively direct his energy and enthusiasm. IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS: Chase consistently displays highly social behavior with his handlers. He maintains a loose wiggly body throughout interactions and solicits attention from handlers. He engages in games with preferred toy items while off leash, and frequently checks in with the handler. BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: EXPERIENCE (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience, especially with the behaviors outlined below) Recommendations: No cats Single-pet home Recommend no dog parks Recommendations comments: Single pet home/No dog parks: Due to rapid escalation to biting in social settings with other dogs, Chase may benefit from being the only resident dog in a home. Potential challenges: Basic manners/poor impulse control On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration Potential challenges comments: Basic manners/poor impulse control: Chase jumps up a lot on people in a social manner. It is recommended that default behaviors such as "Leave it", "Sit/Stay", "Down" are reinforced to substitute any frustration and teach him to control his impulses instead of simply reacting; proper management is also advised. Force-free, reward based training only is recommended. On leash reactivity/barrier frustration: At the care center, Chase has been observed to react to other dogs, lunging towards them, barking and growling. Chase may need positive reinforcement, reward based training to teach him to look at you rather than other dogs. We recommend a front clip harness or head halter to help manage this behavior.
