"We've Seen The Devil—He Was Hiding In The Mirror."
Part I Part II Part III
Featuring: Gender-Neutral Reader, Twisted Wonderland Various x Reader, Self Aware AU, Yandere TWST
Synopsis: The second oath revealed, a new character appeared.
Word count: 3k.
Includes: Obsessive and possessive behavior, PTSD, nightmares
"You are no savior—nor purpose nor God. You are damnation—a phony and fraud."
--------------
You flip to the first page and begin reading.
Entry 001: Names.
The Ramshackle Ghosts have informed me that they do not have names. Or, more accurately, that they have long since forgotten them. Grim says it is peculiar for someone to not have a name. I will have to trust his judgment on this. 
Entry 003: You.
Grim asked about you today. I, quite unfortunately, did not have much to tell him. Or rather, there was not much I was allowed to tell him. Whenever I try to speak your name out loud, my lips firmly close, like a flower blossom at night. 
When we are alone, you are all that he asks about. Not that I blame him for it, of course; I am just as curious as he. The ghosts are strange, though: they have never once asked about you. Perhaps they simply do not understand. 
Entry 005: 
Grim has revealed the truth of your existence to Heartslyabull. It was an accident, of course, but even so, I gave him a rather stern talking-to. They have directed all of their attention onto you. It’s true that I did not exactly like being on the receiving end of their “affections”, but at the very least I did not have to share you with anyone.
Entry 015: Fate.
I've been thinking more about names lately. Everyone seems to have one. I am no different. My name, Yuu, indicates that I am a stand-in for someone else. A blank slate for you to imprint upon. The others have similar names. Each one is an indication of our role. With just the names, you can figure us out. Are all names like this? Is each person's fate dictated by their name? 
What about yours? Your name is different. Your name is not a play on words, nor a foreshadowing of things yet to come. Your name says nothing. You are simply yourself. 
You are the only thing real in this world. You are the only thing who is not bound by the threads of fate. 
Entry 017: Love.
I had a very interesting conversation with the Heartslyabul students today. It was about you, obviously—for, what topic besides you could ever possibly be interesting? I had asked them about what they felt for you (rather accusatively, if we are being honest here. After all, how could they possibly feel anything, when they are nothing but code?) They responded that they felt love. Naturally, I had been expecting this answer, however, something about the way they said it made me pause. Perhaps it was the matter-of-factness of it all that caught me by surprise. They answered my query in the same tone of voice one would use to say that the sun will rise in the East and set in the West, or that the sky is always blue except for evenings and mornings. 
They said it as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. They said it as if they believed no other answer could possibly exist. I do not believe them to be worthy of your gaze, but even so, they have earned my respect. 
Entry 020: Real.
Some of those worthless NPCs doubt your existence. It is of little consequence, however, for your influence is all too real. Even those maggots cannot deny that much. You have changed this world without ever once stepping foot in it. 
Entry 027: Devil.
The characters you love are a complete mess because of you. They stretch themselves thin trying to win your affection. They pull all-nighters, throwing themselves into researching to bring you over to them. They destroy themselves when you’re away, and they ruin each other when you are here. 
They claim you are their savior—their purpose. Because of that, they put you on a pedestal. They worship you as if you are some god. But you are no god. You are its reverse.
You are a devil.
But don’t fret, my dear [Name], for I still love you all the same. When the others learn of your true nature they may abandon you, but I will always be there. 
You slam the book shut. 
“Hasn’t anyone told you that it’s rude to go through another person’s things?” Your surprise registers in your mind, but your body does not react. You do not flinch, though all of your senses are screaming at you to move. You recognize this person immediately, their silhouette is illuminated by the moon’s glow behind them. You had seen them before, but this is different. You are not just seeing the body, colorless and without soul—you are seeing the person. Now, you had seen their thoughts, their hopes, you had heard their voice. 
“Yuu…” Your voice trails off. You have nothing to say. What could you say? 
“[Name]...” They echo, voice eerily similar to yours. They smile at you—and what a smile it is! It is the kind of smile you only see in portraits. It is cheerful yet mysterious. Cunning yet serene. It is the kind of smile that betrays nothing of the smiler’s intentions. Pretty does not even begin to describe it. They are not just beautiful—they are beauty itself. 
Instinctively, you step back, unaccustomed to being on the receiving end of such an intense gaze. They close the distance easily. Before you can even blink, their nose is almost touching yours. You can feel their heartbeat on your chest as they reach behind you, hand slithering across your arm. Goosebumps rise on the skin where they touched you and linger even after they take the journal and step back. You think, for a second, that your response is out of attraction, only to realize faintly that you are afraid. It is the way they look at you, you think. Their gaze could be compared to that of a predator stalking its pray. 
The only difference being that no predator would dare make its intentions quite so clear.
They are still donning that smile of theirs. Only now it is wider, crueler. It vanishes as soon as it appears, leaving you to wonder if perhaps it was nothing more than your imagination all along. “Goodnight [Name],” they say, although it is far too late to properly be considered night, you suppose the distinction is not very important.
After all, they have already left.
———
Grim is standing over you. It is morning, you realize. The rendezvous from last night sits in the forefront of your head as Grim goes on about something or another. You are only able to catch the last part of what he is saying. ”Ya' got some wellness packages from the students—and letters. A lot of letters." 
Great. 
You step into your house slippers (when did you get those?) and head downstairs. Honestly, you were not expecting much. A few baskets with candy and first aid, get-well-soon cards and maybe, maybe a teddy bear—if they were really splurging. 
It’s like you were born yesterday. Of course it would turn out like this. Didn’t you see the offering room? And that was before they even had a reason to send you gifts. 
A mountain of gifts looms over you, casting a large and foreboding shadow across the dorm. Just looking at the giant amalgamation of well-wishes and apologies has you feeling overwhelmed. It takes you a few long seconds to gather the courage and determination needed to move it all indoors, luckily, you have Grim to help you with that (although, inexplicably, some of them had already made it inside even without the two of you). It is around the time you are dragging the fourth package indoors that you wish you had more people to help. 
Actually…
“Hey, Grim?”
“Yeah?”
“Where are the ghosts?” Grim pauses. Then, with a nonchalance completely unbefitting of the situation at hand, he replies:
“Dunno. They’ve been missing ever since Yuu shut down.”
“Excuse me?” Grim shrugs. “Three people go missing, right as a fourth turns black and white, and your response is to just…shrug it off?” Grim, at the very least, has the decency to look a little embarrassed at this. He tucks his ears flat against his head. Avoiding eye contact, his eyes dart around the room, likely looking for an excuse to change the subject. 
Grim picks up a letter from a pile. “Here! Why don’tcha read this one?” You take the letter from his hand, rather unimpressed with his attempt to fool you, but willing to look the other way for now. After all, suspicious as it is, the ghosts’ disappearance really has nothing to do with you.
“This one’s from Riddle,” you say, turning the envelope around in your hands. It’s white with a red rose seal. The address has been penned impeccably in red ink. The others in the pile are not nearly as fancy as this one, but they each follow the same formula. You suppose there must be a rule about letter-sending. 
You glance over at the other piles. Each has their own quirks that distinguish them from the rest.
Pristine white envelopes with red seals and red ink, courtesy of Heartslyabul.
Kraft paper envelopes tied together with string, “from Savanaclaw” penned plainly in black ink.
Grayish blue wrapped gifts with letters laid neatly on top, no doubt from Octavinelle.
Scarlet envelopes with what you suspect to be actual golden seals—an elephant and a scarab, surely from Scarabia.
Royal purple with silver encasings, long elegant calligraphy giving away its Pomefiore origins (although, one letter is drawn more sloppily than the others, you notice).
Most uniquely of all, a tablet that appears to function solely as a voice recorder, ready to be played at any moment, surely something one can only find in Ignihyde.
Gothic-style calligraphy and black envelopes with green seals, unquestioningly from Diasomnia.
You stare at the baskets of letters for a while, debating yourself on whether the energy of opening and reading each letter would be worth the effort. You decide that no, you’d rather not go through the ordeal, and instead, opt to stand up and stretch your legs, only to end up right back on the floor, reading through the letters you had just sworn to avoid. 
You really are hopeless, huh? 
———
“That’s the last one,” you say, tossing the letter aside and flopping down to lay flat on the floor. Getting through all of them had taken you hours, despite only having skimmed them.
“Jeez, they’re really persistent.” You nod, or you try to. It's actually rather difficult to make the nodding motion while lying down, but Grim seems to understand your sentiment, regardless. Your mind feels hazy; your vision is starting to blur. Perhaps you ended up straining yourself. Perhaps it wouldn’t hurt to rest your eyes, just for a moment.
You must have drifted off, because when you came to, you were on a couch, and not the floor. Just as well, you suppose, lying on hardwood for too long would hardly be comfortable. 
"Morning!" You feel a weight on your chest as your eyes shoot open. Yuu is laying on top of you, head resting on their hands and elbows digging into your ribs. Their face is entirely too close. You open your mouth to speak, but the words never leave your body. 
"Aw, I know you've got a lot to say to me, but it looks like we'll have to cut this conversation short. You seem to be waking up," they say, gracefully getting up and walking out of sight.
"Wait hold on—!" 
———
"—Wait, Yuu!" Your eyes shoot open as a feeling of Dejá Vu washes over your body.
"Hey, hey! Myah! Calm down!" A familiar weight settles on your chest as Grim stands over you, watching your expression worriedly. 
"I guess I must have dozed off. Sorry, Grim." 
"You okay? You were screamin' bloody murder." 
"Just a bad dream. I'm fine." Grim doesn't look entirely convinced, but doesn't seem interested in pressing the issue.
"You were screamin' about Yuu. Speaking of…where are they, anyways?"
“What do you mean?” You ask, a feeling of unease creeping its way into your stomach.
“They’re not in the bedroom anymore. So, where’dja put ‘em?”
“I…thought you moved them?” You bolt up the second that Grim shakes his head, frantically running around in search of something you know does not exist.
You are searching for the library.
It is then, as you are running, that something peculiar catches your attention.
It is a door. Now, that on its own is not at all a concern. There are doors everywhere, but this door…this door is different. This door is not supposed to be there. This is a door you have opened before. It is distinct from all the others—this door leads to the library. It was exactly the thing you had been searching for, and yet, now, standing in front of it, you hesitate. 
Your shoulders tense as you stare at the door. You look at it as if you are waiting for it to jump out and frighten you. But it does no such thing. It is, after all, nothing more than a simple door. This knowledge does nothing to lay your anxiety to rest. If anything, it only amplifies the growing pit in your stomach. 
You gather up as much courage as you can muster and twist the doorknob, even if only to lay your unease to rest. It is unfortunate, then, that your unease only grew upon entering. The door disappears behind you, and a feeling of dread crawls from you, emanating out in waves. 
This room isn’t supposed to exist—but you are very much here. 
“Come to read?” Yuu’s disembodied voice calls out to you. You silently scan the library for any signs of life. You find nothing. Perhaps there is nothing to find. “Looking for something?” You whip around, Yuu now standing behind you. They are smiling. It is that same cruel, bewitching smile from last night. Your throat feels dry. You are shaking. 
“You must have really missed me. We were only apart for a few minutes, you know?”
“What is this place?”
“I call it the Wraith. I don’t know exactly how it works, only that it has something to do with the subconscious. I came here when I shut down, and you come here whenever you lose touch with reality. It’s really fascinating stuff.” 
Lose touch with reality? As you ponder over Yuu’s words, images of your previous visits float through your mind.
And just like that, you are alone. It takes a moment for the realization to sink in on you: you are alone. And it is by your own doing, no less. What a terrifying lapse in judgment! What an egregious oversight!
Grim is standing over you. It is morning, you realize.
Your mind feels hazy; your vision is starting to blur. Perhaps you ended up straining yourself. Perhaps it wouldn’t hurt to rest your eyes, just for a moment.
You are searching for the library.
“But you know,” Yuu’s voice pulls you away from your thoughts. “a room like this doesn't just pop into existence. Someone has to make it.”
“And in order to make it, something has to be sacrificed.” They take two steps closer, and you take four steps back. It isn’t long before you are running out of space to hide. It isn’t long before your back is pressed to the wall, with their hands to either side of your head. 
“Want to know something funny?” They cock their head to the side as you stare at them, their grin only widening when you remain silent. “When I first shut down, everyone thought that something was wrong with me. But, really? I felt better than ever. It was like I was awake for the first time in my life. I was aware the whole time, I could hear everything. I saw the whole hunt, you know?” You are so still that you are not even breathing. When Yuu steps back, you suck in a breath and sink to the floor. They pay it little mind and continue on with their story. 
“Of course, I hated to see you so mistreated—but even so, I was a little glad. You finally saw them for who they really were, and I finally got to see you for who you really were. It was beyond frustrating, you know? Watching you get kicked around by filthy, vile creatures that could never be deserving of you.”
“Although, I suppose it was you who made them that way, wasn’t it? You’ve ruined them, you know?” The aura they’re emitting is nigh unbearable. Your body is screaming at you to run, but the fear has rendered you deaf. They smile. That same damned smile. Your breath hitches. Images replay in your mind as your head swirls
The mouth widens as storm clouds gather and swirl around you. Dancing around in a cruel ballet. Thunder cracks in the distance as acidic rain hits and sears through your skin. The flowers turn to gravestones, and the songbirds begin to scream in human voices. Thorny vines reach up and take hold of your limbs, cutting through your flesh and bones as if they were made of nothing more than paper. 
You are already halfway to being buried alive when you realize you’re being pulled in. Desperately, you try to claw your way out of the soil that threatens to swallow you into its suffocating embrace, but it's of no use. It isn’t long before you can no longer fight back. It isn’t long before you—
“You…what are you? You’re not…human.” 
“Does it matter what I am?”
“It does.”
“Then just call me yours.” They hold out a hand to you, urging you to take it. “I know that your presence ruins people, but I don’t mind.”
“Because I love you.”

CALL ME WHAT YOU WANT 𓆩♡𓆪
(Book 1 of the Hellfire Gentlemen's Club)
(strip club owner!eddie x fem!exotic dancer!hargrove! reader)
𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐍 𝐀𝐔 18+ MINORS DNI
006: The Eddie Special
Tumblr media
Rent is paid, food is on the table, and Max finally has a YMCA membership! All because of you. But just when you think you've got your two lives under control, Robin and Vicky show up to Hellfire for date night — and see you dancing center stage.
* = somewhat smut
** = smut
↳ chapters: 001, 002*, 003** , 004**, 005 , 006 , 007* , 008**, 009, 010, 011, 012* , 013**, 014**, 015, 016**, 017, 018, 019, 020*
word count: 5.2k words
warnings — eddie being an asshole again but also very sweet, mutual pining, angst, yearning, profanities, power imbalance, double standards, smoking, alcohol, sexual harassment, health issues/disparities, trauma, pedophilia, incest, name-calling
“A compromise would surely help the situation.”
“Hey, stranger.”
Robin flashes you a “good morning” smile as you’re washing the dishes. Scooting to the side, you continue to scrub as she leans against the sink with her back, munching away at her breakfast sandwich that Vicky had prepped for her the night before.
“Morning,” you grin in return.
“Funny,” she says. “We live under the same roof now but our friendship still feels long distance.”
“Sorry… ” you frown. “Work’s just been a lot.”
So is living a double life. To shake off the guilt that constantly gnawed at you, you dry your hands and proceed to make yourself some coffee. When you scan the fridge, the only creamer you can get your hands on is...
Hazelnut. Just your luck.
There’s a tinge in your chest as you dunk it into your mug. You stir aggressively. Robin notices how tense you are and walks over to you.
“Don’t be so hard on yourself, my guy,” she says as she pats you on the back. “Healthcare is tough. I dated a travel nurse once and that poor woman had back problems for days.”
“Such a physically and emotionally taxing job,” Vicky adds as she emerges from their room. “I don’t know how you do it, Hargrove.”
“Good morning, baby.”
“Good morning, sweetheart.”
Smooch.
You chuckle to yourself as you sip your Eddie-coded coffee.
“Yeah. I don't know how I do it either…”
The wooden stairs creek and crack as a pair of Vans stomp against them. Max is awake. This morning is an exciting one. After many, many overtime shifts at Hellfire, you've accumulated enough tip money to pay for Max's membership for 12 months. On top of that, rent had already been paid so you had a hefty cushion leftover for leisurely expenses.
You can hardly contain yourself. Seeing the surprised look on your sister's face is sure to be the highlight of your morning.
Max stares at you in shock when she sees you in the kitchen.
“Whoa,” she says. “She’s awake.”
You only ever see Max in passing when she comes home from the skate park. And that's right when you leave for work. From what she tells you she hasn't made many friends, but her main priorities right now are her hobbies and preparing herself for college classes in the Fall. Sometimes Max will tag along with Robin and Vicky to run errands, but you can tell she misses spending time with, and seeing, her sister.
“Shocker, right?” you sigh. “Thought I'd catch you before you head out.”
With your hands behind your back, you stride over to Max to give her her well-earned gift.
“What’s this?” she wonders.
“Your ticket to the Y,” you explain. “A band and a quarter, should last you a year.”
"Whoa!" Vicky exclaims.
"Holy shit! Look at that!" Robin cheers.
Max's eyes widen as she takes the money from you. “ $1200?! What bank did you have to rob to get $1200?”
“No bank,” you shake your head as Max counts all of the Benjamins. “Just the pockets of old, retired folk.”
You grin from ear to ear as you watch Max get bombarded with hugs that she is reluctant to accept, but does regardless. Vicky and Robin hoot and holler and squeal and cheer, reaffirming to Max that she deserves it the most.
“You’re really giving the elderly a run for their money,” Max says as the celebration comes to an end.
You watch in amusement as Vicky and Robin take turns counting Max's money.
“Yeah well it’s the least they can do for me,” you sigh. “My body feels like it’s aged 10 years.”
Max excuses herself from your roommates and throws herself onto you this time. You do your best not to cry. You've really missed her hugs.
“Thank you,” she says. “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
Seeing how happy your sister is makes all your struggles worth it. Anything for Maxine.
———— 🔥 ————
“I don’t know who you think I am, but I don’t really give a damn right now.”
The past couple of weeks at Hellfire have been nothing short of awkward.
Eddie only really comes to you when he needs something, which — now that you've taken off those rose-tinted glasses — pretty much fits the bill of who he is as a person.
But he still lingers. For example, when you and Chrissy go on breaks together, there is always something for Eddie to do in close proximity. Table needs wiping? Eddie is there. Aisle needs sweeping? Mike, go help in the back. When you're dancing on customers, Eddie comes out from doing paperwork in his den to greet the regulars. And whenever you would turn to look at what Eddie’s doing, his gaze is already fixed on you and what you’re doing.
Like cat and mouse. But of course, he does it with all his dancers. Right?
A part of you wants to confront Eddie and his behavior, but before you even can he's out the back door to go on a "smoke break" with Argyle after closing, which usually is a short jump to him leaving. So you try to act unbothered by it by staying just a while longer with Henry… just in case he does come back.
But Henry puts you to work when you stay. He typically has you make sure all doors are locked, all chairs are stacked, and that any stray garbage is thrown away. You two play music while you work alongside one another, talking shit about customers and about how every day is starting to look the same.
You’re aware of how you openly contradict yourself, saying the days all bleed into one another and how you miss your bed. Yet you’re still at Hellfire. Way past closing time. Henry for sure has caught on to your odd behavior, but he doesn’t seem to mind because he enjoys your company.
It’s like clockwork now, this ritual-slash-routine.
Today is different for some reason.
"Hey!" Eddie calls out. “Shy Girl!”
You’re alone eating in an isolated part of VECNA’S LAIR when Boss Man makes his way over to you.
You’re frozen in your spot as he approaches you…willingly. Although you could care a lot less about his presence, the gesture still causes you to sit up a little straighter and blot-dry any remnants of your food with your napkin.
Eddie sets down new laminated prints of his menu in front of you. Plop.
"New item on the menu,” he gloats, very amused with himself. “Waffle fries. What do you think?"
Annoyed, you huff.
"Sure."
Two weeks of barely uttering a sentence to one another. Two weeks of avoiding eye contact and possibly one ‘excuse me’. Two weeks of being a background character in Eddie’s life and his icy shoulder making sure you knew it.
Now you’re more than an extra today. Because today Eddie decides you’re something of value, and that just for today your input actually matters. It's pathetic. It all makes Steve and Nancy look like best friends.
Your eyes travel to his firm hands. His silver rings. You hate to admit that you miss how they felt against your skin, especially since your skin seemingly isn't the only one he grazes. I do this with all my dancers. Your hands ball into fists. How can someone be so okay with using someone the way Eddie did with you?
"So we'll do regular waffle fries and the crinkle cuts will be our sweet potato fries from now on,” he explains.
“Mhm.”
“And eventually,” Eddie booms dramatically. “We’ll introduce the concept of different types of fries. Cajun fries, cheese fries, chili cheese fries. Then we'll introduce new cuts like curly fries... wedges..."
Not a word from you.
"Then we’ll do animal style fries like how you Californians do it at In-N-Out. I’ll call it ‘The Eddie Special’. It’ll be amazing!”
"You call the shots, Eddie."
Like he always does.
Eddie finally gets the message. You watch as his shoulders droop as he surrenders.
"Are you okay?" he dares to ask perplexedly.
"Never better!" you exclaim.
You grab your finished meal and dart past him, not even bothering to pardon yourself when your shoulders brush his slightly. You hear Eddie exhale, super displeased as the taps he makes on the table with his fingers render themselves fast and impatient.
“You don’t wanna stay and chat?” your superior demands sharply.
“I have to clock back in,” you answer coldly. “Sorry.”
“K then,” Eddie quietly mutters, returning the energy.
You try to look busy, so you pull out your phone and pretend to check something. Luckily, a text message from Robin pops up for you to reply to.
ROBIN BUCKLEY ☀️🤍
Date night with Vicky tonight. Breakfast/lunch/dinner waiting for you in the fridge when you get home 😁
You smile.
You da bestest 🩷 thank u
Buzz.
ROBIN BUCKLEY ☀️🤍 loved “You da bestest 🩷 thank u”
“Hey, Hargrove?” Eddie calls out to you.
His voice sounds a lot softer and apologetic. With the optimism that your tactic worked, you spin around to face Eddie with eager eyes. Maybe today is the day things go back to normal again.
“Hm?”
“No going on your phone when you’re clocked in, k?”
A blow to the chest. Bitter and agitated, you shove your phone into the back pocket of your booty shorts. Yes sir, you mutter to yourself mentally.
After thanking you, Eddie struts to the kitchen, using his own phone to pull up Dio on Spotify. He and Argyle like to head-bang and fuck around in the kitchen when they’re together. Messing around is only okay if Eddie does it, you assume.
To make matters worse, Eddie then proceeds to use his stupid phone to send someone a text. You scoff at the irony. Fucking prick.
Another trigger of yours? Power imbalance and double standards.
Attempting to be drama-free, you ironically make your way over to Steve and Jonathan, who are posted up at POTIONS.
“Hey Shy Girl,” Jonathan nods.
"Hey Johnny," you greet him.
You turn to the literal love of your life.
“Sup, Steve.”
"Hey, Hargrove," Steve nods. "How'd you do on tips last night?"
"Stellar," you answer. "Fucking love Fridays."
You and Steve are still casually hooking up. But just as you predicted, things aren’t quite the same. The problem this week is that Steve is struggling to finish, and you start to feel discouraged and insecure when he softens up inside of you.
Steve always used to finish. Now when you look up at him his gaze is fixed on something else, his strokes are less enthusiastic, and he mistaked one of your kinks for someone else’s once. But you pretend not to notice. A part of you even feels like you deserve it.
Steve is struggling with the eye contact today. You kick at the floor, trying to find a way to make your presence relevant in this corner of Hellfire. Knowing very well what you’re doing, Steve holds up a French fry from his red picnic tray as a supportive gesture.
"Would you like some?"
You beam at him and open your mouth so he can feed you. Steve obliges.
“Thanks boo,” you say to him as you chew.
He blushes. “Welcome.”
“You guys are cute,” Jonathan smiles as he wipes his hands with a hand towel. “I gotta run to the restroom, you mind watching the bar for a bit, Hargrove?”
“Not at all,” you oblige. “I’ll be here. Eating Steve’s fries.”
“Great,” Jonathan says, excusing himself. Then he halts. “Oh! If you open the register, Eddie has something for you underneath. Code is 0-1-1.”
Eddie has something…for you?
You turn to Steve and he just shrugs. As if it weren’t already obvious, you and Eddie weren’t exactly on friendly terms. What could that man possibly have for you?
It’s a termination notice, you can feel it. Bracing yourself for the absolute worst, you punch the code in.
0 - 1 - 1.
CHA-CHING! The register pops open. You lift the till that housed the cash and coins to unveil a pile of cash joined together by a small paper clip. There is a tiny note that was written onto a ripped piece of paper.
You pick it up. This couldn’t be for you, you think. But the sloppy handwriting with a partially bleeding pen says otherwise.
‘Hargrove: $600 — YMCA MONEY’
----- ❤️‍🩹 -----
“She the devil, she a bad lil bitch, she a rebel.”
Tonight you’re doing private dances with customers and also doing tip rail. But you wish you were just doing tip rail 'cause tonight’s clients were ballsy.
One patron said you look like his daughter. But it’s okay because ‘she’s married and out of the house’. Another said you look like one of his students. But it's totally okay because he teaches at the community college, therefore almost every pupil there is ‘at least 18’. It still doesn’t make it any better. All you could think about is your 18 year old baby sister — someone’s daughter and someone’s someone — someone who will also be walking the halls of Hawkins Community College later this month.
This customer, however, takes the cake. After guiding his hand away multiple times during the lap dance, he always manages to find the straps of your bra again. Upon strike three, you lose all patience.
“Yo, can you not do that?” you hiss, your inner Cali dude coming out to play. “I moved your hand away many times.”
The man is almost appalled. “It’s a strip club, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, but I strip on my terms.”
"I paid for your services," he spat. "So I'm sure I get to do what I want, hoe."
“Don’t call me that!”
“I'll call you what I want,” the customer insists. “It’s what you are anyways if you’re in this job right?”
He takes out another dollar and tucks it into one of your cups. You could only stare in shock. The audacity of this guy.
“Here,” he says degradingly. “Looks like you really need it. Now let me see those tits. Please.”
Anger consumes you. Whatever amount of the Neutral Wolf you had left in you has now melted away. The Big Bad Wolf is taking over now. You give the man a shove, hoisting yourself off his disgusting body.
"What the FUCK is your deal, bruh?" you bark, a piece of Billy coming out of you more than you intended. "You want a piece of me that badly, don't you?"
Your words cause a scene in the surrounding area. Not even phased by it, the patron decides to push you further.
“Easy, easy,” he rolls his eyes. “If it’s that much of an issue I’ll just take my money back.”
He yanks the dollar back from out of your bra. His knuckles just grazed your tits.
“What kinda strip club is this anyways? Theme is janky as fuck. The STRIPPERS don’t even strip. They’re RUDE, and they’re butt ugly. The owner should be ashamed. Oh and by the looks of it, you don’t have much tits to work with after all.”
“Pull up your shirt,” you quip. “I think I found ‘em.”
This poor man. He didn't know you're a Hargrove.
And soon you’re throwing shit. His money. Your shoes. Every curse word in the dictionary, both traditional and urban with the exception of a few. You’re seeing all red now, and you’re pretty sure if no one stopped you, you’d have ripped the guy’s head off.
“If I don’t have tits, why you trying to get at me?” you roar. “You like little boys or something, bitch?!”
“HENRY!” Eddie shouts.
You turn in the direction of Eddie’s voice. He had been watching. Through your furious, free-falling tears, you can see in his dark eyes, closed fists, and flared nostrils that he is angry as well.
“On it, boss!” Henry shouts as he scampers on over. “What the fuck do you think you’re doing, asshole?”
The friendly bouncer swoops you off to the side and asserts himself between you both. Lucky for the guy, no dislocated limbs were in the cards today. All it took was another person with a penis to get this fool to back down. He tries to reason with Henry but it’s far too late. Henry’s already pushing him towards the door.
“I’ll be coming BACK to have my way with you,” the beast growls and spits. “Fucking SKANK!”
“I HOPE THE FUCK YOU DO, MOTHERFUCKER!” you challenge him. "I'll be right here waiting!”
A calloused hand lands on your lower back. Thinking it’s another customer, you turn aggressively, fist winded up. As quickly as you lunge, a large palm catches it mid-air.
It’s Eddie.
Worry washes over your boss’s face when you two lock eyes for the first time. After what seemed like an eternity. He looks at you with the utmost concern. You almost see a tear glistening in his eye. A portion of his hair falls over his face in attempts to conceal it.
"Are you okay?" Eddie asks again, genuinely.
You nod, gulping.
You aren't okay, that's the thing. Not when Eddie looks like that. And not when he's looking at you, like that. Suddenly, Hellfire melts away and you're back in his van, fighting back every urge to fall into him and his musky, pine aroma infused with nicotine, weed, and beer. Just like home. Eddie feels like home.
Papers beat rock. Slowly, Eddie lowers your fist with the palm he had draped over you. The pulsing music and blinding strobe lights trickle back into your system.
"It's okay if you aren't..." Eddie starts. “You know... alright.”
"Eddie," you stop him. "Please. I'm alright."
“That was a lot.”
“But it's nothing new to me.”
He studies you. Doesn’t speak for a while.
“It's true!” you insist, attempting to diffuse Eddie's concern. “It kinda reminded me of the frat parties in San Diego I used to go to. You know what I’m saying?”
You try to laugh. But Eddie doesn’t. Henry and some dancers come to check up on you, especially Chrissy, to ask if you're okay. They even try to start a petition to jump the guy. You repeat the very thing you've been saying since it happened — yes, you are okay — and thank them for their concern. Then it's back to you and Eddie the moment they all disperse.
"Want a break?" he offers.
You shake your head. Dancing it off would help more, actually. And besides, if his offer is just another attempt to get you alone in his car and fire you up only to extinguish it all again in one sitting, you'll pass.
"Wanna go on stage now then? Get a break from individual dances?"
You smile and nod. "I'd love that."
The night can only get better from here. Eddie offers you his hand and helps to hoist you onto the stage. The DJ announces your name, and you’re back in business, putting on your million dollar smile and batting your seductive, little lashes.
Your song comes on and you start to shake your ass. Lost in the trance of the song, you become one with the pole, climbing it and gliding along it, twirling from it, and hovering with it, twerking and spreading your legs whenever you saw fit. The audience revels in it.
It all feels so good. Yes you are being provocative, everybody and your brother's worst nightmare -- but you're the one in control. No one can ever take your body autonomy away from you. Never again. Not anymore.
You do a death drop to the floor and quickly ease into your splits. The crowd goes wild as you roll your hips to the song, allowing yourself to get showered by the dollar bills that were raining down on you like a storm.
To thank everyone for their overwhelming support, you spin yourself around to face the crowd. But your heart nearly stops.
“Oh my god,” you gasp aloud.
Nothing could ever prepare you for what... or who rather... you see in front of you.
“Oh…my god,” Robin repeats, face sheet-white like a ghost.
Vicky is right beside her with the same shock on her face. Of course, your roommates have acknowledged this place before, so it wouldn't be a surprise that they eventually made this place their date night.
Your mind short-fuses and all you can do is crawl away backwards. Luckily, no one in the crowd seems to suspect how thrown off you just became. Your body quickly calls on another dancer as your mind races. And soon Emmy is taking your spot at the tip rail.
You look over at Eddie, who was in the corner leaning against the wall, but now he is standing upright and confused. Throwing on your cloak, you thank everyone for coming out and run out to the back alley.
"Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit," you mutter to yourself, as your heels click against the cold floor. Your cover is blown. What do you do now? "That's what you get for working local, Hargrove."
You find an area in the alley to rest and hit your dab pen ferociously. As you pace back and forth, you start to develop your exit plan. Nothing new, you develop these plans all the time.
Eventually Robin and Vicky find you. Clumsily spilling out the back door comes Thing 1 and Thing 2, assessing your body language and emotional well-being before finding the right words to say. It’s uncomfortable for everybody.
“Well this is quite the nursing home,” Robin remarks.
“Babe!”
“What?!” Robin exclaims. “I’m trying to lighten the mood.”
“Yeah but that can kinda come off as witty and sarcastic.”
“Well I don’t mean for it to.”
“Just because you don’t mean for it to, doesn’t mean it won’t come across that way.”
“Well knowing Hargrove I would hope she knows it’s not meant to come across that way.”
“GUYS!” your overstimulated self shouts.
All is quiet on midwestern front. Vicky and Robin switch between looking at you and back down at the ground while you resume your stress-filled nic break.
Finally, you speak after exhaling.
“So how’s everyone’s niiight?”
Robin gets straight to the point. “Why didn’t you tell us you work here?”
“I was protecting Max.”
“From what?” Robin wonders. “Ass and boobies? Extensions and falsies and freakishly high, high heels?”
“Doesn’t sound like nightmare fuel to us,” Vicky shrugs.
“It is when you consider the women Billy’s brought home.”
“What does Billy have to do with any of this?” asks Vicky.
“A lot, actually,” you answer.
You shove your pen back into your cloak pocket.
“Look,” you say. “I really needed the money. And I needed it fast. With my server and dancing background, I figured being a stripper was the best way to make it. And I was right. It’s quick money, but it’s sure as hell not easy. It’s draining for the most part, but—”
You stomp at the ground in frustration.
“My sister is fed and she can go to the Y and go to school and she’s away from Billy anditsallthatI’veeverwantedokay? That’s why I did it.”
“Okay, but I don’t see the point in coming up with this elaborate story that you work nights at a nursing home,” Vicky squints in thought. “Come on Hargrove, we are the least judgmental house in the boonies. I mean look at us.”
“Art Hoe Lesbians in a red state,” Robin points out. “I’m sure exotic dancer is a very mild offense.”
They did have a point. And it's not like Max is the type to slut-shame either. But you wanted Max to live as normal of a life as possible. Having a stripper sister also didn’t seem like the best conversation starter in Hawkins.
"I guess I'm just used to living a lie," you admit exhaustedly. "And running away... I also know Max would be worried sick for me."
"You only live lies if you tell 'em," Robin points out. "But as long as you're here with us, you're free to be your true and authentic self."
"Your job right now is to provide," Vicky adds. "And you're doing a wonderful job."
You beam. "Yeah?"
They both nod, yes. Sometimes you forgot what a support system is like. It always used to be everyone for themselves.
"Thanks guys."
"You're welcome," Vicky grins. "For now we'll keep our lips locked. We did not see anything."
"But you are going to have to tell Max eventually," Robin scorns.
"I know," you sigh. "I appreciate the stall."
The three of you hug. That's another thing you've been needing these past few weeks. A warm, authentic hug.
"Nice ass by the way," Robin compliments you.
"And tits," Vicky adds.
"Thanks."
———- ❤️ ———-
“I’ll kindly take you up on that Eddie Special, please,” you mumble.
Eddie had last-called everyone 15 minutes ago, but deep down you hope he had enough room in his heart for you. It’s been a dumpster fire of a shift.
Sure enough Eddie caves, judging by the way he starts up the fryer again after having shut it down right before you got to him.
He grins warmly. “Coming right up.”
As the fryer starts to bubble, Eddie loads in the last of the crinkle cuts. He waits close by with crossed arms.
Eddie’s first to break the silence.
“You seemed to know those customers,” he comments, referring to Vicky and Robin. “Judging by how fast you ran from them. In pumps too.”
“They’re my roommates,” you reply. “My best friend and her partner. They didn’t know I work here.”
He raises the eyebrow at ‘best friend’. “Even they didn’t know you work here?”
“I don’t know what they’d do with this information,” you utter defensively. “I guess it’s just hard for me to trust people.”
“Is it really, Miss Flight Risk?”
He’s referring to moving in with a girl you met online. You shoot him a look. The “I-didn’t-really-have-any-other-choice” look. He quickly digresses.
“I’m kidding,” he surrenders. “Okay? I understand that there are some things you gotta keep secret.” Eddie wriggles the basket full of fries around in the fryer. “…Even from your loved ones.”
Something tells you he speaks from experience. You shrug it off, ensuring he’d elaborate if he wanted to eventually.
Meanwhile you just decide to hit him with some small talk.
"How’s Chef Lucas been doing back here?"
"Fine and dandy," Eddie breathes. "For the most part. He burnt some things a couple of days ago, but that's part of being an apprentice, right?"
"Totally,” you nod. “Mistakes are bound to happen."
"Ohhh yeah," Eddie mutters, almost to himself. "Lots and lots…of mistakes."
"Trial and error, if you will,” you pitch in.
"Yup,” he draws on. “Seeing what works and what doesn’t. Testing the waters..."
Your eyes meet again. Briefly at least.
Eddie struggles to hold his gaze and instead resorts to clumsily playing around with a cloth nearby while whistling a tune. You can feel it getting awkward again so you find a way to keep the conversation going.
“Thank you for being there,” you attempt. “And helping out with my sister’s membership. You didn’t have to.”
“But I wanted to,” Eddie insists. His back is towards you so you can't read his expression. “You’ve been working very hard.”
“That’s why you don’t have to,” you say as-a-matter-of-factly. “It’s already paid off.”
Eddie chuckles. “Okay, then use it to buy yourself something nice. You deserve it.”
A hoot sounds from the opposite end of the hall. It’s Henry making his way over with some keys.
“Alright Babyboy, I’m out,” he announces. “I can lock up if you’d like? Not like I have anything to do.”
“I can take it from here,” Eddie insists. “Sweet dreams, Mr. Creel.”
Henry makes his way over, narrowing his eyes.
“Thought you normally go see Wayne after this.”
“I do,” Eddie replies. “But he had company earlier and I’m sure he already put himself to bed by now. I’ll stop by for breakfast.”
Henry’s eyes shift between you and Eddie. There’s a small smirk but he tries to conceal it. You’re staying late again, huh?
“Your words not mine,” Henry says. “Goodnight you two.”
You both bid Henry goodbye and he sees himself out. Eddie proceeds his periodic check-ins with your taters.
"You've uh, been appointing Henry a lot," you point out.
"Hell yeah, like clockwork," Eddie shrugs. "This industry is predator central. Just hate when dickheads think they can disrespect my girls. I don’t play that way.”
My girls.
“Not his first time doing shit like that,” Eddie adds, referring to the customer. “I regret giving him another chance. I should just get Henry or Jim to print a picture of his face and plaster it all over the walls. DON'T LET THIS ASSHOLE IN.”
You laugh. Eddie laughs at your laugh and then goes to melt the cheese for your dish.
“Yeah,” you say. “You give a man another chance and all he does disappoint you.”
Eddie sighs and nods timidly. “Yeah… Men ain’t shit huh?”
It falls silent for a bit. Eddie slowly stirs the melted cheese concoction he had going on in his pot while eyeing the time. You fiddle around with your cloak out of habit. Eddie speaks first again.
“You know what Shy Girl, I’m gonna do it,” he says. “Gonna broadcast his face and I’ll have you sign off on it.”
“Really?” you say.
“Of course,” Eddie shrugs. “You know how I am. I don’t play when it comes to you.”
The rasp in his voice sounds like melted butter. For a fraction of a second, you start to wonder what you were even mad about earlier.
You really missed talking and bantering with Eddie. Aside from whatever the hell was going on between you both, his companionship was not something you felt was fake.
Eddie begins mixing some sauces, and when he's done he hands you what you assume is your tips that you forgot to collect. You know, when you bolted off the stage.
"Already tipped everyone else out," he explains. "Rest is yours to keep."
You thank him and count all your bills. Now you have $600 of reallocated YMCA money and tips from tonight to pay off your bills and splurge.
You haven't had this much money since your waitressing job. You are forever grateful.
“Is there...anything I owe you Eddie?” you question. “Like at all? You’ve done a lot for me lately.”
“Ehhh you’re in the clear, I guess,” Eddie sheepishly smirks. “Lucky for you I’m a sucker for flattery.”
The fries are now cooked to a golden crisp and Eddie adds the components needed for The Eddie Special. He spends a decent amount of time to perfect the presentation before sitting down in front of you. In true Eddie fashion, he takes a bite of his own creation.
"HOT," he comments, trying to blow on the fry that's already in his mouth. "Hot, hot, hot. Fresh out the fryer."
Judging by his face, however, he approves. You can’t help but giggle over and over again. He gestures for you to try some.
It’s love at first bite.
"Mhm," you coo. "Thank you, Eddie."
"You're welcome," Eddie says. He grabs a washcloth to clean up the area. “Now… when you’re finished, how about I treat you to a real dinner?”

◇》》 ... -- `` What day are we on? It doesn't matter.
`` Remember the serum? Well, we found that injecting it into a Sleeping flower doesn't kill it. It makes the flower gray, kills the parasites and makes it a bit tougher. But we can still cut it.
`` And you know what? It's edible. Edible. And it's a cure for the virus. That's right, it CURES THE VIRUS!
`` Subj- OH TO HELL WITH IT. Mooch is BACK. Blind now but back. She's under extensive medical care at the moment but she will LIVE!
`` And that tells me that any currently alive Stalkers can be saved. WE CAN SAVE MONSTERKIND!
`` Snowdin is clear and we're working on clearing Waterfall now. Snowdin now houses all of our survivors and some guards that have the serum. Oh, and we sent an expedition team from here, and the Guard sent some soldiers to the Steamworks to see if it can be restored and become the replacement for the CORE.
`` They found robots - since they're immune they can be turned into Sleeping flower neutralizing machines. Literally. Right now the buggest project we've got is one called Axis- he says his model number is 014. Once we're done it'll be 015, and instead of guarding he'll be neutralizing flowers and saving Stalkers. Rescuing people as well.
`` He requested to stay in a similar body, so we're building onto his current model and fixing what's broken. Adding onto code instead of recoding him. He seems to appreciate that he has a more lively voice now. And exclamation marks. And his new emotions are taking him some getting used to but he's doing EXTREMELY well with the flower neutralization.
`` We all love him here, Ceroba especially... she seemed very happy to see that he stayed almost exactly on model. Of course, some things had to be changed - like his power source, which we changed to water to make REAL steam and not the thick, gray chemical steam from the pink lava. But other than that everyone seems better with him here.
`` We've saved five people not including Mooch so far thanks to the work of our amazing teams. I'm proud of all the work we've done.
`` This is Moray Mola, with new hope for the future, signing off. I'll see you all again soon! `` -- ... 《《◇

So when we see the number 10 multiple times on the show, is it likely a reference to 01?
Oh yeah, for sure, it's always been there!! "Lessons start promptly at 10", Scott's thing about "10 o'clock on a Saturday", 010, and now...
10 o'clock on a Saturday.
Tumblr media
It's also fun to note the root codes of all the lab kids.
00: (000?) 001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 006, 007, 008, 009 01: 010, 011, 012, 013, 014, 015, 016, 017, 018...
Not sure what it means, if it means anything at all, but it's still funky to me that they'd choose this method of numbering/a triple digit system over a double digit system.

⎈ for luci and valencia pls ! <3
015. an encrypted letter
Tumblr media
written in a half-forgotten made-up 'code', a clever word play that was thought up by the sisters once upon a time, when they would play pretend of times of peril. luciana, always the slowest of the 3, fancied herself a spy; it had been her idea to have a sister code. a language only they understood. maybe the others had forgotten entirely, but luciana had to be sure -
to val from luci
remember when we were kids && our biggest challenge was deciphering our own secret messages? somehow i remember how to do this. on the back i tried to replicate the key, good luck.
let's play a game. you used to love games, i haven't forgotten. if you can get through the encryption this far, and manage to write me back, i will tell you a secret of mine.
hear from you soon?

(aaa its been awhile)
What if...android!izuku and human!katsuki
dystopian future au
in this au:
its a dystopian future where all humans slept in their underground hybernation pods while the robots reconstruct the planet that is slowly dying. Yet something had gone wrong for katsuki to suddenly wake up.
katsuki is the only one human who's awake.
deku is also the only android whose prime core goal is to find "kacchan". altho the bot is facing a malfunction where it cant seem to remember "why" its core goal is to find "kacchan".
Deku (his robo name is D-015 code name "Deku") is an android created by a scientist named Izuku.
Katsuki and the scientist Izuku are close friends, then turned boyfriends for a few years before they had to go into the pods and embark on the space journey.
katsuki wakes up from his hybernating pod thats supposed to schedule to activate when the bots successfully finished their "new world" construction but something had gone wrong. (he wakes up 100 years later after he went inside said pod.)
He spent awhile exploring the ruins looking for answers as to why and how he woke up. Then he finds android deku. He thought it was Izuku but was disappointed when he learns it's just an android. (also devastated)
The android acts quite like his Izuku too in terms of mannerisms, but with the robot speak.
"Primary Goal: Find "Kacchan" completed."
"Why the fuck are you looking for me?"
"Processing Inquiry: "why?" scanning memory database:..none...answer: "I don't know..."
"Well shit."
"..I'm sorry"
The only memory the bot seemed to have is Izuku' last video log message which is cut in half due to an unknown corruption.
/01/30/XX/
"Hello? Is this recording?...Ok..Hello this is Izuku Midoriya, one of the scientists tasked for the "New World" project, if you're seeing this then it means I'm long gone...Kacchan..I'm sorry for not telling you the truth, this bot will tell you everything there is to know with the tru-" *data corruption detected, cannot continue video playback.*
And now the human and android sought to solve answers for the cause of the apocalypse, and also the android's memory issue.
Endgame: After almost unlocking the mystery pertaining to the apocalypse and the android's memories, Deku's batteries cant run anymore and before he shuts down, he plays every single message logged in his memory database.
with it, the android also revealed how it lied and was the reason why kacchan's pod got activated, the reason for it was with an unknown cause (could be a sign of sentience from the A.I and shit)
anyway kacchan already grew attached to the bot and didnt want for it to die, so he tried his hardest to repair the batteries but it was all for naught.
katsuki is now alone on a dilapidated planet, All the other humans in a location unknown.
*aka...sad ending qvq*
anyway the plot is kinda inspired with the movie 'Passengers' but without the spaceship.
