Hello all! I hope you're having a lovely day. Today I bring you our very first recc list, featuring eighteen fluffy fics! Some are pure schmoop, some come with a side of angst, and a few with a touch of smut as well. You can find them below the cut and I highly encourage you to check them out, and leave kudoes and comments to spread the rarepair love 🩷

The whole thing is poetry, not least of all the relationship between Yussa and Marion. They're so sweet and you can feel the affection they have for each other in every sentence. The way they banter and tease each other is adorable and Viet's voice for Yussa is also just so fun (let that old man say fuck! XD) Also, the way the title ties into the fic is just so sweet.

Vax and Gilmore take a moment to forget about the looming existential threat of dragons and have a picnic dinner on the roof of Whitestone Castle.

An oblivious, and very confused Percy, becomes subject to Grog's tribe-specific courting rituals when the goliath gets a crush on him. (He eventually gets the hint)

Reccer Says: It's a very niche ship written in a way that feels very authentic to the characters. It also completely got me onboard to the possibilities of said ship!

Through the Years by piratesPencil (5649 words, Mature) Pairing: Yeza Brenatto/Veth Brenatto/Essek Thelyss/Caleb Widogast Warnings: None

Scenes of how Caleb and Essek and the Brenattos' relationship grows over several years and they eventually form a polycule.

Reccer Says: I love each one on one scene between Essek and the others. Also great demi Essek feels 💕

I don’t think I have seen a post about it but I am so super curious- what does Viridian & Jackie’s canon story look like during the game/post the heist? 👀

👀👀👀

ok OK LET'S GOOOO- i'll try and compose my thoughts as best as I can- but this might be rammbly as i have wet cardboard where my brain should be <3 some of my jackie viridian lore is pre-game- so i'll do a quick run down of that too :)

canonically- Jackie n Viridian meet in the year 2071- actually just answered an ask about how they met here. they are friends for a few years- like they become besties and stuff0 but besties who secretly both have bIG FEELS FOR EACH OTHER OMG (uuuh mutual pining/idiots in love for the win babey!)

They start dating in 2076 after confessing feelings and getting a bit spicy- both thinking "oh mygod why didn't we do this sooner?!" - nothing really changes- they're still besties and still hang out like they used too - but now they can kiss and hold hands (not that they didn't hold hands before! but now- idk it feels more special!!)

thEN THE CORPO RAT HAPPENS WOAW OH NO- Viridian loosing her status and arasaka assets (apart from her apartment at corpo plaza- because she bought that outright back in 2072)- Jackie taking her to Vik to get her patched up- he then takes her to his and his mums. Viridian spends a few days resting and then decides to maybe give merc work a try.

She struggles with merc work to start- having spent the majority of her adult life behind a desk of plugged into a netrunning chair- but once she's in the swing of things- she's hit the ground running. Jackie is the brawl- the tank- Viridian is the brain- at the tap of her cyberdeck- she can double someone over with an inhanced contagion or burn out somebody's synapses >:)

The two make quite the team! spending the six months pre heist running jobs- Jackie teaching the ex corpo what it really means to be human- not just a god in the machine- how to live on the wild side- to live for herself . It's the most fun she has ever had. She starts to dress for herself- not for the expetations of others.

The heist- oh god... ok so- in my canon the heist runs near parallel to the cdpr canon. it still goes tits us- it's still the jackie viridian not good not fun day out at kompeki- BUT- the canon chnages / is diffrent to CDPR at the point of escaping komepki. Viridian- being a brutal netrunner in her corpo days- she overrides the delamain AI- commanding it take Jackie to a ripper. Taking the biochip from Jackie- she slots it into her head and applies pressure to the gunshots on Jackie's chest. Pinprick tears in her eyes that she fights back- She knew deep down she and her love should not have taken this job

Jackie gets to a ripper- to Vik!! (in my canon arasaka were not waiting at Vik's clinic).... - yeah Jackie almost dies- but pulls through !!! In the meantime- Viridian goes to Dex and BOOM- betrayal- BOOM Johnny time <3

uuughhhgh uhm i think that's everything!!! post hesit Jackie helps Viridian find a cure- my canon ending for cyberpunk is the sun / / merc's path / path of glory (not sure what the correct name is so im throwing them all in) - (the ending where johnny and V storm arasaka without rogue?) post game- I'd like to think Jackie and Viridian become big time mercs- finally in the major leauges <3

thank you for the ask heather ! <3

#oc: viridian #jackie welles #asks #anon #bunny writes stuff #otp: to this #cyberpunk 2077 #cyberpunk #cp2077 #corpo v #cyberpunk photomode #fem v #cyberpunk oc #jackie x female v #jackie x v #uuuh idk how else to tag this lol

by j_booklover

“Okay, you have to tell me - what is your Cas like? Does he wear, like, a black trenchcoat, or is Alternate-Reality-Cas more of a hoodie kind of guy?” He chuckles to himself, pointedly ignores the reaction the mental picture of Cas wearing a leather trenchcoat incites in him and takes another long sip of his beer. Other-Dean’s brows draw together in confusion. “Who is Cas?”

or: Dean finds out HunterCorp!Dean doesn't know Cas and has a crisis about it, but it leads to kissing so it's worth it.

Rating: G

Summary: XY tries to steal Luka's non-existent gym badges. Instead, they both end up making a new friend. (For @luxyweek day 3: Pokemon)

Word Count: 2071

XXX

Luka woke up to a stranger rummaging in his bag.

He should’ve known better than to fall asleep in the Pokémon Center, especially in a city as big as Lumiose. Exhaustion after a late concert was no excuse to be careless. Even if crime was rarer after the takedown of Team Flare, there were still unorganized thieves around.

Like this idiot who thought Luka was an easy target.

“C’mon, he’s gotta have at least one…” The idiot was mumbling.

Without opening his eyes, Luka slowly moved his hand to his pocket. He pulled out the one pokéball he had on him.

“Who the heck carries so many metronome items…?”

While the thief was distracted, Luka pressed the button on his pokéball. One click, and his Loudred burst free.

“GWAHHHH!!!” She boomed, and the thief jumped back with a shriek.

“Wh-h-hey!” he stammered. Luka finally got a good look at him. Tall blonde hair, tacky outfit—was this some remixed Team Flare grunt after all? He was wearing purple rather than red, though.

“That’s an, uh, nice dude you got there.” He eyed Luka’s Loudred dubiously.

“Symphony is a girl.” He scratched her behind the ear, and she made a low rumble.

“Uh. Nice babe then.”

Luka snorted. Why had this thief bothered to stick around? He thought he’d have run off by now. Luka really hoped he wasn’t going to have to battle. Symphony had worked hard enough tonight.

“Why were you looking through my bag?”

“Pshaw, I wasn’t doing that. Besides, you don’t have anything useful.”

Wow. This guy really was an idiot. The Team Flare grunts were never too smart, either. Just a bunch of kids who got mixed up with the wrong crowd.

Well, Luka was no trainer like the ones who’d busted them up last year. But maybe he could keep one kid from following down that road.

“What do you count as useful?” Luka asked. “Money? Items? Pokémon?”

“Maybe Pokémon would be useful, if they’d stop being haters and listen to me.” The guy crossed his arms and pouted.

“...So you’re not a trainer?” Luka glanced around the Pokémon Center. Everyone else was very determined to mind their own business. Not that Luka needed their help to deal with a guy who couldn’t even use his own Pokémon, but still. Someone could’ve tried.

“I’m going to be a trainer. Just as soon as I steal a badge and get this Zorro dude to listen to me.”

Luka raised an eyebrow. “Zorro dude?”

“Yeah. Dark type? Sick red ponytail? Likes to copy me and make me look stupid?”

He sat up straighter. “You have a Zoroark?”

That Pokémon was rare enough to border on legendary. They didn’t even live in the Kalos region.

“Yeah, that’s what I said.” The guy looked at Luka like he was stupid.

“How did you catch a Zoroark if it won’t even listen to you?”

“Dad gave ‘im to me. He wants me to get famous here, but it’s harder to fake battles than I thought.” He sighed dramatically and sunk to the seat next to Luka.

Clearly the ‘get famous’ plan wasn’t working. Luka had no idea who he was. At least he was pretty sure he wasn’t a Team Flare grunt, though.

“And you’re telling me this… after trying to rob me… why…?”

“Cause you asked.”

Luka blinked. “Touché.”

He gave Symphony one last pat, then returned her to her pokéball.

“Traded Pokémon won’t listen to you without badges,” he told the would-be thief. “And I don’t have any of those, if that’s what you were looking for.”

“Really? But you look—” The guy gestured to all of him. “Y’know. Cool. Tough.”

“Thanks? I guess? I’m just a musician, though.” He patted his guitar next to him. It was pretty telling that this guy hadn’t tried to steal that. “I only battle if I have to.”

“Huh. Well that’s pretty cool too, I guess.” The guy shrugged. “I did Pokémon Contests in Hoenn for a while. Before I got banned for using holograms.”

Luka raised an eyebrow. “Any other international crimes you want to confess to?”

“Crashed my boat into a herd of Luvdisc in Alola. But that was an accident. How was I supposed to know they were endangered?”

“I was being sarcastic, man.” Luka shook his head. “Nevermind. Come on.”

He stood and hoisted his guitar over his shoulder.

“Huh? Where are we going?” The guy trotted after him.

“To catch you a Pokémon. Before you get yourself kicked out of another country.”

XXX

The stranger’s name was XY. It stood for Xavier-Yves. It didn’t sound like an Unovan name, but that was still the least weird thing about the guy. Maybe that was just a pseudonym. He probably needed one after all of his criminal acts, accidental or not.

“Alright, XY.” Luka stood knee-deep in the grass of Route 4. “You’re going to be borrowing Symphony for this. Borrowing. If you run off with her, she’ll suplex you into the ground.”

XY eyed the Loudred next to him. Sweat beaded on his forehead.

“Got it, Mr. Couffaine.”

“Just Luka is fine.” He sighed. This was such a weird way to be spending the night after a concert, but it was still better than going home.

“Got it, Mr. Luka.”

Close enough.

“Alright, now follow me into the grass.”

“I can’t do that! That’s where the Pokémon are!”

Luka rolled his eyes. “That’s the point. You’re going to catch one.”

“I thought you were going to catch me one. Because you’re cool and sexy like that.”

“Flattery’s not getting you out of this.” Luka grabbed his wrist and tugged him into the grass, Symphony following behind them.

XY squealed again. “But what if they eat me!”

“We’re on Route 4, dude. The biggest Pokémon out here is a Skitty.”

“...Those things eat meat, right?”

“No.” Even if they did, they would probably know better than to eat XY. They didn’t know where he’d been.

“If I die, you’re paying for my funeral,” XY grumbled, even though he’d already gone off on four tangents about how rich his dad was. Luka didn’t even bother responding.

Suddenly XY screamed again. A few Fletching flew out of the red flower patch. At this rate, they’d never catch anything.

“What is it this ti—oh.” Luka blinked down at the tiny Pokémon clinging to XY’s ankle. “It’s just a Flabébé.”

The little girl seemed to have mistaken XY’s socks for a flower. She was shuddering, cowering against the fabric even as XY tried to shake her off.

“Dude, cut it out.” Luka gripped him by the shoulders. “This is perfect. She already likes you.”

“Y-you think so?” XY set his foot back on the ground. The Flabébé tentatively looked up.

“You might not even need Symphony to weaken her. Here.” Luka took out a pokéball, but hesitated to hand it over. “Are you going to take good care of her if I give you this?”

“What gives, man?” XY snatched the ball. “You were gonna teach me about catching Pokémon, not about, like, parenting stuff.”

Luka hadn’t thought this through enough before seeing the little Flabébé. He couldn’t in good conscience condemn her to a life with XY without knowing that he would treat her right.

“Are you staying in Lumiose? I live at the edge of the city. I could come check on her. Just to make sure she’s not giving you too much trouble.”

“I didn’t know you were gonna want joint custody.” XY smirked. “But sure, whatever. Can’t complain if you want to do half my work for me.”

He knelt down and tapped the Flabébé on her head.

“You are just a little thing, aren’t you?” He let out a nasal laugh. “How do you feel about me being your new dad?”

“Please don’t say it like that.” Luka groaned.

The Flabébé fluttered into XY’s palm and nudged the pokéball. Wow. She must really have no standards.

“Sorry. Me and Lu are gonna be your new dads.” XY grinned.

“Aaaand that’s even worse.”

The Flabébé looked at Luka. He looked at her. She looked at him. He looked at her.

“...I’m not being your other dad.”

Symphony blasted out a honk of laughter. He glared at her.

“Don’t make me put you back in the pokéball.”

She just smiled innocently.

“Okay, okay. Shut up. We’re doing this.” XY took a deep breath and pressed the button on the pokéball with his thumb. It split open, sucking the Flabébé into its light.

The ball glowed red while rocking back and forth. Once. Twice. Three times.

Then it went still.

“I—I did it?” XY stared at the ball in his palm. Luka swore there was wonder in his eyes.

Hopefully this hadn’t been such a bad idea after all.

“You did it.” Luka clapped him on the shoulder. “Why don’t you let her out now? She should get used to you before you take her home.”

After fumbling for a moment, XY popped the ball open. The Flabébé flashed back out and hovered in the air. She quickly zipped down and plucked a red flower, hugging it close.

“Aww, our first date and she’s already giving me flowers.” XY laughed.

“It’s not for you. Flabébé has to keep one close for protection.”

“Ah. Like a comfort blanket.” XY nodded sagely. “That’s okay! I’ll pick my own flower. Then we can match!”

He snatched up another red bloom, then tucked it behind his ear.

Luka was surprised to find himself smiling. Who would’ve thought XY could actually be cute? When he wasn’t trying to steal Luka’s non-existent gym badges, anyway.

“Are you going to name her?” He asked to keep his thoughts away from that tangent.

“Huh? Oh. Uh… hmm.” XY’s brow furrowed. He stared at the Flabébé, who had fluttered back into his palm. “You can’t tell me your name, can you?”

She let out a tiny squeak.

“Hmm. Yeah. I feel that.” He nodded. “How about Cheeto?”

“Cheeto?” Luka burst before he could think better of it. Who named their Pokémon Cheeto?

“Yeah, ‘cause she’s got that yellow dust all over her.” XY rubbed a tiny bit of it off with his fingertip. Flabébé almost seemed to purr.

“You mean… pollen?”

XY raised an eyebrow. “Ew, gross. What kind of name is Pollen? Sounds like Pole-men. And she’s a girl.”

Luka wanted to smack his forehead. Symphony gave him a sympathetic pat.

“Well. Have fun with Cheeto, I guess.” He sighed. “I’m going to go get some sleep. You’ve got my Holo Caster number.”

“Wait!” XY jogged after him, cradling Cheeto close to his chest. “I didn’t get to say—thanks, man.”

Luka looked back over his shoulder, surprised. “No problem. This is better than stealing gym badges, right?”

“A lot better.” He looked down at his new Pokémon fondly. “Uh, sorry about that, by the way. I—I’m gonna make it up to you.”

“Yeah?” He raised an eyebrow.

“Yeah! I’m gonna—take you to the hotel I’m staying at! So you don’t look homeless!” XY grabbed him by the arm and started dragging him back towards the city.

“I literally told you I live in town…?”

“Then why were you sleeping in the Pokémon Center like a hobo?” XY smirked. Symphony laughed where she was lumbering after them.

You’ve turned my own Pokémon against me. Luka scowled.

“Didn’t feel like dealing with my mom,” he said under his breath.

It was stupid, running away just because he’d finally found out about his dad. His whole band was here. Including his sister. Lumiose was a big city, but he couldn’t play guitar for Kitty Section and dodge his parents at the same time.

“Perfect! There’s no moms allowed in my hotel room!” XY beamed.

If staying out was stupid, then even considering XY’s offer was downright moronic. XY had tried to rob him just hours ago.

But the dude was rich. Luka didn’t have anything else he could want. And whatever hotel room they ended up in was bound to have a more comfortable couch than the Pokémon Center’s.

“...Alright,” he finally agreed.

XY’s holler of joy could probably be heard in the next route over.

“Sweet! Bro co-parenting slumber party, here we come!”

Luka let Symphony laugh at him. He deserved it for ending up in such a ridiculous situation.

But somehow, he felt better anyway.

2020 Cap-Iron Man Exchange Gifts unveiled on January 4th

It’s the ninth day of reveals! Each day we will be revealing gifts created by 2020 Cap-Iron Man Holiday Exchange and Community Gifts Event participants. The gifts will remain anonymous until January 11th, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the works and guess the identities of creators. (Remember, if you've got a work in the collection, please remain anonymous until after creator reveals!)

Here are today’s gifts!

★ Artifices of the Mind for ironmanwithaplan (616, 15,100 words)

Hydra Steve Rogers infects AI Tony Stark with a virus that makes it impossible to differentiate between reality and imagination. Caught between his hallucinations and a nightmarish reality, Tony dreams, and loses himself.

★ Captain Monkey goes Bananas for drunkonwriting (MCU, 1437 words)

Natasha and Steve discuss FEELINGS. Natasha is absolutely not matchmaking and Clint can't prove otherwise.

★ Feels like home for Cap Iron Man Community (616, 4797 words)

Steve is, maybe, completely in love with Iron man. Which is why he knows stuff like what Iron man does and says and smells like. Yes, he knows that too. So it’s no surprise when, while sparring with Tony Stark, he realizes he smells just like Iron man. What could that possibly mean?

A story where Steve confesses his love, gets rejected, and confesses his love all over again to someone he never would've imagined confessing to. Not everything is always as it seems.

★ A little more conversation, a little less action, please for misomilk (MCU, 1921 words)

Tony is worried about catching feelings with his friends with benefits. Steve isn’t quite on the same page as him though.

★ our kind of striptease for Cap Iron Man Community (616, 2913 words)

Steve hates seeing Iron Man lose his armor, until he doesn't.

★ take my breath away for Cap Iron Man Community (MCU, 2071 words)

Steve can feel his whole body curling in on itself, can feel the way everything is caving in around him, and as he drifts off to unconsciousness, Steve's last thought isn't the kind of joy he'd expected to experience upon discovering his soulmate.

Instead, his last thought is how does Tony even breathe like this?

★ three o'clock for Cap Iron Man Community (Ultimates, 3000 words)

Secretary of Defense Tony Stark has a standing appointment with President Steve Rogers every Friday afternoon at three. They get up to some shenanigans in the Oval Office.

★ A Timely Christmas for Cap Iron Man Community (Marvel 1872, 1369 words)

The sheriff hauls a drunk Tony into his jail on Christmas Eve. Things go a little different than he thought they would.

★ ugly sweaters [FANART] for njava97 (MCU, Art)

steve and tony's first christmas as a couple

★ what's a fanfic? for Cap Iron Man Community (Avengers Academy, 1000 words)

Kamala introduces Tony and Steve to the world of fanfiction. There is a surprising amount of content about them being gay.

★ A Whiff of Excitement on the Home Front for Cap Iron Man Community (Marvel Noir, 2330 words)

Steve meets Tony Stark for the first time - and it's not for the last time.

★ You, Me and a Christmas Tree for marumo (Avengers Assemble, 1487 words)

It's their first Christmas after returning from Battleworld, and Steve is afraid.

Heya~!! I thought that maybe I can make you happy by requesting the kissing prompt post 10, 12, 9 Like Aizawa and s/o confess to eachother and he stares at her lips and she's whispering like"just kiss me already you-"and he kisses her. A small short gentle kiss. Then he pulls away, they just stare at eachother and BAM he captures her lips again in a long passionate kiss. After that they're like. "we sure took our time" "yeah you did" "o shut up~" Hope ya like this, have a nice day buttercup~!💐

Flowery Anon, I love you so much, I would totally make and give you a bouquet. 🖤💐 Thank you so much for this request! It really helped me get back into the swing of writing after being so busy and sick this month. The timeline you created was so much fun to work with, so I really hope you enjoy how this turned out!

Reader: Female

Summary: Every Sunday morning, you and a friend met for breakfast at a local coffee shop. As they teased you about your budding relationship with Aizawa, they noticed that he was at the counter ordering a drink and called him over, opting to leave at the same time. After turning down his offer to walk you home, you jokingly offered to walk him home- and much to your surprise, he accepted.

Words: 2071

“And how many times have you seen him in the past week?” your friend asked with one eyebrow quirked and a cheeky grin. Thinking over the question, you sighed and bowed your head, looking down into your drink.

“…Nine,” you finally mumbled, making your friend choke on their drink before they started laughing wholeheartedly.

“Nine?! Nine times in the past seven days? You mean to tell me that there were days you guys met up more than once and you guys aren’t dating, (Y/N)? Really?”

“We just get along really well,” you sighed, trying to rationalize things without having to acknowledge your feelings, “like you and I do.”

“Yeah, but you and I have never seen each other nine times in a week,” they chuckled as you let out a sigh. “Oh, correction- ten times.”

“What?” You lifted your eyes from your drink and followed their gaze over your shoulder to see none other than Eraser Head at the counter, placing an order. He glanced your way and you immediately looked to your friend, cheeks a brighter scarlet than before. To your dismay, you saw them waving and inviting him over.

“(Friend’s Name), what are you doing?!” you whispered, hushed and sharp in your tone.

“I’m doin’ you a favor,” they grinned, picking up their drink and leaving you behind. “Hey, you’re (Y/N)’s friend, Aizawa, right?” you heard them asking. “She’s taking forever with her drink and I’ve got somewhere to be, but I’m sure she’d love your company if you’ve got the time.” They didn’t even wait for the man to respond, giving you two a nonchalant wave of their hand before leaving the shop.

Rather than wait for him to come to you, you picked up your drink and walked over to him after a deep breath and mustering up some courage after the embarrassment you felt. You gave him a smile when your eyes met, receiving no more and no less than his usual cool stare and composed demeanor in response.

“Coffee before work?” you asked as you stopped by his side.

“After.” His voice was low and grumbled, and you could’ve sworn he seemed a little different. Was this sleep deprived crankiness you were seeing in him for the first time?

“You’re having a coffee… after you stayed up all night on patrol?” Your brows furrowed as you looked up at him with concern. Despite being a few years your senior, you swore the man took worse care of himself than you did, and naturally, you worried about him. But Aizawa met your concern with an unbothered expression, as if his routine was perfectly normal. After all, it was to him.

“It pairs well with my walk home,” he explained with unquestionable simplicity as he picked up the paper cup of freshly dripped coffee. “You’re from around here, right? If you’re heading back, I’ll walk with you.”

“Oh, no, that’s alright.” You waved your hand as if to brush the offer away, the two of you starting towards the door and then stepping out into the steady Sunday morning foot traffic. “But if you want, I could walk you home,” you teased playfully.

“Sure,” he answered with a shrug. Your sweet smile gave way to a surprised expression, watching him as he began down the street. While you stared at him, he stopped and looked over his shoulder. “Are you coming?” His question wiped the dumbfounded look off your face, making you smile and shake your head at yourself before quickly joining and escorting the Pro Hero home.

As you two walked, Aizawa still seemed a bit off, like something was on his mind, or he was more tired than you’d ever seen him, but as far as you could tell, the shortness wasn’t anything to worry about. If he didn’t want your company, you were certain he would have flatly declined the offer. Granted, he didn’t make you feel particularly welcome since he didn’t bother with small talk, but he let you get away with teasing him a bit about being his chaperone, so you gave him the benefit of the doubt.

“Aizawa, are you lost?” you asked, once again concerned. If he was too tired to remember where he lived, you would have no choice but to bring him back to your place so he could rest.

“No.”

“…Are you sure? We’ve passed this bakery three times now.” With a sigh, you came to a stop, looking at the back of his head until he turned around to face you.

“I know. We’ve actually passed my place a few times. You were in the middle of a story each time, so I just kept walking.”

A light blush came to your cheeks. Why did he have to say everything so matter-of-factly? Normal people didn’t just pass their destination a few times to keep a conversation going, yet he was saying it like everyone did.

“You should let me know next time we pass it, Aizawa. My stories can wait until after you’ve slept.”

“It’s fine. I’ll sleep when I’m dead.” He shrugged it off and began walking again.

“I hate it when you say that,” you grumpily sighed, continuing on with him, “it makes me worry more about you.”

“You don’t need to worry about me.”

“Well, I do. It’s only natural to worry about the people you care about.”

“Is it really so bad to you that I’d rather hear your voice for a few minutes longer?” he asked as you chided him. The question silenced you, making you catch your words in your chest before you had the chance to say them. Did he even stop to think about the implications of what he was saying, or how you would take it?

“…No,” you finally uttered softly, “it’s really quite sweet, but your health’s more important.” It took everything you had to keep your voice fairly level and to be rational regardless of your fluttering heart and racing thoughts.

“My health seems to be better around you.” Aizawa’s steps took a different turn from the path you two walked a few times over. “If you’re so concerned with my health, why don’t you come up and stay a while longer with me?” He glanced at you and caught the blush on your cheeks, the surprise and confusion evident to his keen eyes despite your efforts to mask them. His footsteps stopped in front of an apartment complex, giving him the opportunity to turn and face you. Your eyes met, his dark irises captivating you. His face was always so handsome that you found it hard not to stare, especially right now, after hearing his oddly sweet words. The way you looked at him didn’t seem to bother the hero, especially since he had a smug little smile on his lips as he waited for your answer.

“Aizawa…” You weren’t entirely sure what to say. From your interpretation of things, you were getting mixed signals. He was distant and aloof, yet somehow flirtatious and sweet at the same time. Clearing your throat, you sighed softly and shifted your weight to lean away from him with your hands resting on your hips. “Is something up? You’re acting… different. I don’t know what to make of it, and I don’t want to get the wrong impression.”

“Oh? And what impression are you getting?” Judging by his tone, it felt like a leading question that he already knew the answer to, especially coupled with that smirk of his. Declining to answer, you quirked a brow at him, challenging the man with an expression that suggested you didn’t need to tell him. Unfortunately, he didn’t fall for it as he walked into the complex, turning around at the door and looking to you. “(Y/N)?”

You huffed and let your hands fall back to your sides, following him inside.

“I think you like me,” you declared plainly- practically accusing him as you two rode the elevator up. Aizawa scoffed at your words, though his grin remained all the same, neither confirming nor denying your assumption as he led you down the hallway and stopped in front of his door.

“And what if I do like you?”

His black eyes bore into yours, steadfast in the suggestion he made and easily reading the disbelief on your face. Slowly they lowered to your lips after taking in your entire expression. Even while parted as you searched for the words to say, they looked inviting, but he wasn’t one to assume things like this. He watched as they closed and curled into a soft smile.

“Then just kiss me already, you-”

As soon as your permission was expressly given, Aizawa closed his eyes and lowered his lips to gently kiss yours. In a sense, it happened all too quickly- you were in the middle of saying something, and then suddenly your words were stifled by lips softer than you imagined, and a kiss that wasn’t quite like the ones you daydreamed of. Completely unprepared for it, you remained wide-eyed with your jaw dropped as he straightened up. When he looked back to your face, his eyes returned your stare as he gauged your reaction to see if it aligned with the words you said.

“You good?” he asked, refusing again to assume.

“Yeah,” you squeaked softly, blinking quickly and then giving him a small nod, smiling once again.

“Good.”

In that smile, Aizawa saw everything he needed to know. He took you by your hand and guided you between him and the door, gently tilting your head back with his index finger curled under your chin. His own smile pressed onto his lips as he watched your face, your expressiveness a treat to him before he kissed you again- this time much more akin to how you fantasized it would be: with a passionate hunger that begged for you to part your lips, and stole your tongue for a taste when you did.

You leaned back into the door, using it for support as one hand cupped Aizawa’s cheek, the other resting on his shoulder underneath his capture weapon. There was no use in holding back anymore- the hero unlocked the floodgates and you were just as invested as he was now.

When he drew back from you, you only gave him enough time for one breath and your eyes to meet, pulling him back by the scarf with a surprisingly hard and demanding jerk so your lips pressed together again. As he fell into the kiss, he braced himself against the door, his forearms shielding both sides of your face as he kissed you deeply over and over again, luring your tongue out and keeping it enthralled and entertained with his.

Panting, you tore away from the kiss and turned your cheek, leading him to take a step back as he regained his breath. Once again, your eyes met, both alight with burning excitement and intensity unlike any other gaze you previously shared.

“…We sure took our time, huh?” you mused with a grin.

“Yeah,” Aizawa chortled, “you did.”

“Oh, shut up,” you grumbled, looking away from him with a new rosiness on your cheeks. “Are we gonna go inside, or what?”

“Depends. Are you going to move?”

Your head snapped to the side as you glared at him, even redder than when you looked away. His steady and cool smirk greeted you despite the fire in his eyes. Flirtatiously, you pressed your hands against his chest and gave him a soft push so you could move out of the way. “You’re the worst, Shouta.”

“Oh, (Y/N), you haven’t seen just how truly awful I can be,” he grinned, unlocking his door and holding it open for you. “Allow me to enlighten you.”

For a second, you stood at the door and stared at him with a bitten smirk. Your eyes lowered as you chuckled to yourself, then lifted to meet his stare. Passing by him, you hooked your hand underneath his capture weapon again and pulled him behind you.

“Do your worst,” you dared to challenge as he took your hand from the scarf and led you through the apartment. For a second, you swore you saw a devilish flicker of red in his eyes when he looked back at you, and you couldn’t help but wonder if his fantasies were as depraved as yours.
