To Teacher, a Lesson
(Or Teach her a lesson depending on your pronunciation)
Notes:
This is a sort of a promise fic and I have another one to keep-- but since this is short this is simpler.
I'm not good at getting characters accurate so if you feel it's ooc then sorry, I did my best. Oh yeah, I am not very fond of x reader fanfics reading them when they are good/interesting I will do. Write them? On most cases I will not.
So this is a OC who is technically gender neutral. But I leave that up to you.
I also changed the glasses.
This fic was suggested by @mlk082
With their post: https://at.tumblr.com/mlk082/704789841502666752/4pd1vov4cspz
Story:
"Aw man! another flunked Alchemy test! Professor Crewel lives up to his name 'cruel'" Venice complained and tried to follow up with a pun.
"That was a bad joke. Venice," Ace complains.
"Says you who came up with a worse joke about Riddle this morning." Venice retorted.
Jade smiled coyly. "I'd be happy to offer my services to tutor you"
Ace looked around "alright where's your dorm leader?"
"This isn't a deal. I'm doing this of my own free will" Jade remarked. "More specifically for Venice-san if you dont want to take this opportunity." Jade closed the book he had on history.
"Yup I'm leaving," Ace dipped.
"Bye Venice!" He called running out of the classroom.
"Dammit of all the days for Ace to have the braincell..." Venice deadpanned.
"Shall we meet in the library?" Jade asked.
"Oh! Right! Sure!" Venice nodded.
***~~~***
"Jade why are you wearing glasses-- are those AZUL'S?!" Venice asked.
"These are a spare set. Azul will not miss them for a hour or two," Jade said as if that cleared that up.
"I dunno Jade the glasses kinda draw attention to your eyes..." Venice commented
"Why thank you" Jade smiled. 'Was that a genuine smile?' Venice blinked. Most of them have a 'shady mushroom fanatic' vibe or 'curiously too interested in "opportunities'" much like his dorm leader. Venice however was mainly surprised that he seemed genuinely happy.
"Shall we get to the lesson?" Jade picked up a pencil.
"Yup! I'm ready!" Venice commented displaying the thick notebook and the alchemy study guide with its companion workbook. The idea of the study guide was actually just a logbook full of terms, phrases and various ingredients and what they could be substituted for. However Venice had a beginner's study guide which was noticeably thin and like did not have much info.
Jade made a mental note of that.
An hour and a half later, Venice had a full twenty pages worth of notes to study from.
"Let's get a snack!" Venice commented eagerly, seemingly proud of themself for remembering the information Jade told them.
"I already have that arranged. Floyd should be here soon--"
"Hiya Jade! Kurage-chan!"
"Hi Floy-- why do you keep calling me that?" Venice's eyebrow twitched.
"I brought snacks!" Floyd remarked instead.
"Oi" Venice stared at the large sub sandwhiches. Decorated with what they could see to be tomatoes, prosciutto, ham, purple onions mushrooms-- of course. Venice nearly facepalmed.
"Jade you look all scholarly with those glasses," Floyd commented.
Jade nodded. "Thank you Floyd" he grabbed for the sandwich closer to him.
"I don't really like it" Floyd continued.
"Thank you Floyd" Jade remarked before taking a bite of the sandwich. Venice looked between the twins.
"Hey Jade gimme half of your sandwhich" Floyd said after a brief moment of silence.
"Sure" Jade said and in a flash he twirled his lavender gem studded pen and uses some magic spell to slice the sandwhich. Floyd picked up his half then seemed to remember something.
Lifting the bread he found six mushrooms. Jade smiled innocently. Floyd had a change of mind. "On second thought I'll go back to the lounge"
You aren't going to eat your sandwhich?" Jade called after him.
"NOPE!" was the reply as Floyd left the library.
Venice happily munched on the sandwhich. But Jade, whether due to his brother's comment or otherwise, took the glasses off.
When lunch break was over the time to hit the books returned. Jade redonned the glasses.
"Oh hang on a sec so if I come up with the chance to use this I can substitute it for its ground powder form and the potion won't be affected?" Venice asked not long after they started again.
"Of course. As long as you measure accurately it will be fine. You can even use herbs and roots that stem from the same family. Provided the required precautions of safety are in place" Jade reassured.
"Got it" Venice commented writing the helpful information down.
When the study session ended, Jade removed the glasses again. I look forward to future sessions Venice-san Jade smiled.
"Say why'd you offer to help me anyway?" Venice asked as they left the library.
"Why indeed" Jade replied with another genuine smile.

A Rant About S[ace Games Cuz I Annoyed
So recently I was watching SuperButterbuns' vod of the 2023 game awards which happened like a month ago at the time I'm posting this, and I noticed that every single game set in space that they showed a trailer for all look EXACTLY the same aesthetic wise. Like there was absolutely nothing to differentiate them from eachother. And honestly I got a little annoyed! Why don't space themed games do different stuff anymore?! You can do a space exploration game that Isn't all metallic grey and white geometric shapes lines and patterns with only a single accent color for all the neon lights. It can be done! and it has been done! so why don't we do it more often! Outer Space is quite literally INFINITE therefore INFINITE possibilites for what space could look like! why not have a game where you explore outer space and said space is pastels or something?! I dunno! Just get creative with it! GIMME FLAVOR DAMMIT I'M TIRED OF SPACE WONDER BREAD!

embarrassing moments with inarizaki
Tumblr media
inarizaki always looks so cool but you know they’re actually dorks and i am here to provide you the content to show theyre clowns. enjoy the headcanons :)
Kita Shinsuke
firstly. kita shinsuke being embarrased? making a mistake? unheard of.
he’s a perfect man and we all know it.
anyways
you two were having a nice dinner out together. 
it was a pretty fancy place so you decided to dress in a different style today
but you were beginning to wonder if kita liked it or not because he seemed to keep looking past your shoulder instead of at you
he was an observant guy so you were wondering if something had happened behind you
but you couldn’t hear anything weird so you assumed not
you decided to just stay quiet about it at first but now it was beginning to become annoying! 
why wasn’t he looking you in the eye to speak?
midway through your dinner, kita finally spoke up tho
“y/n, your shirt is slipping... yer bra’s showing.”
oh.
right. you were wearing your off-shoulder top.
“o-oh. shin, it’s that kind of shirt, you know?” you had to explain your outfit to ur bf with a pink face.
“oh... that so... well it’s cold these days so if yer feelin’ cold lemme know. i’ll give ya my jacket.”
GOD HES SO PERFECT KITA SHINSUKE I HOPE U MARRY HIM???????
Ojiro Aran
another man with next to no flaws.
but nature says everyone has to make some mistake.
so it was a regular school day, our aran has just come to class from morning practice and there’s still some time left until class starts.
all the girls in class are gathered around a table
he’s not sure why, it’s probably watching an idol video
but ur man wants to be a little romantic!!
plus he just showered so he smells Great uwu
he goes over and hugs you from behind, placing his chin on ur head.
“hey, bb whatcha ya doin”
all the girls gasp.
he doesn’t get whats wrong, it’s not like it’s a secret y’all are dating
pda to this level aint bad either
especially compared to his teammate miya atsumu
“ojiro aran.”
why is your voice behind him
he looks down and nearly faints when he sees he hugged the wrong girl.
to be fair she looked a lot like you from behind, just maybe 1cm shorter.
“i’m so sorry!” he keeps apologising to literally everyone and all the class is giggling bc they never seen their school’s ace so red before.
“didn’t think i’d come back from the toilet and see my bf cheatin”
“IT WAS A MISTAKE! I’M SERIOUS! Y/N U KNOW I LOVE YA!” 
hes so funny i swear
the volleyball team hears of it and it gets even better 
Miya Atsumu
it’s not a secret that miya atsumu, setter of the inarizaki volleyball team and invited to national youth training camp, had a gf
he was very much in love with u 
the whole class knew it because he’d show it off whenever he could too
so here comes valentines day
last year he received like... 50 different gifts from girls and guys aiming to win his love.
you didnt even give him one lmAOOOOO 
but this year, he had been not so subtly trying to hint that “i better not receive any chocolates this year when i’ve got a gf!”
he reaches school and plops into his seat.
there’s an anonymous box of chocolates with “please accept my love, miya-kun! <3″ on it
“the hell’s this?!”
“oh? chocolates?” - osamu who just popped his head into the class to shove into his twin’s face how much chocolate he got.
especially since the blond was off limits, the grey-haired twin had a bigger following now.
“do they not know i have a girlfriend...”
“well, ya might as well eat it. ya dont know who to return it to.”
“that’s like receivin’ their love!”
“no it ain’t. it’s just food.”
atsumu couldn’t argue with that and popped a piece in.
it was very delicious. the chocolate practically melted on his tongue and was the perfect sweetness and was filled with a delicious ganache too.
it was perfect
but he couldn’t accept this!
“it ain’t even good. too sweet and the filling’s sticky.”
“ah. really? is that what you think, tsumu?” you ask from the door where you had been watching the exchange take place.
“y/n! look at this! some weirdo gave me some choco and like... samu said to test it but i’ll toss it out, promise.”
“tsumu, i made that... i wrote it anonymously because i thought you’d know it was me and i wanted to tease you a little.”
“huh.”
osamu: “yeah actually i went over to her place to teach her how to make it.”
atsumu: “you said you went to suna’s place?!”
osamu: “i went there later but i first went to help her.”
you: “anyways if it’s not good i don’t mind if you toss it out...”
tsumu: “NO NO BABE I PROMISE IT’S GOOD”
you: “you just said-”
“BABE I SWEAR IT’S GOOD I JUST DIDN’T WANT TO ACCEPT A STRANGER’S STUFF”
“you’re always so honest though... are you sure?” you were having your fun teasing him now.
“BB PLSSSSSS”
he still cringes at the memory 4 years into ur marriage
Miya Osamu
osamu would DEFINITELY make home made dinner dates a regular thing.
this alone shows he’s the better twin - miya atsumu stan
he loves cooking and eating with you so sometimes when he’s got a day off you guys’ll set aside the afternoon to make a real nice dinner
imagine candlelit dinner with miya dorito body osamu in a suit
of course some fun stuff happens after too ;)))
and today’s your third anniversary!!
so osamu adds lots of ‘natural aphrodisiacs’ to the meal
i’m talkin
garlic bread and soup for an appetiser, a nice juicy steak with garlic and red wine sauce for the main, and chocolate coated strawberries for dessert
mm yummy
you two cleaned your plates completely (it was very delicious) and as you were washing the dishes, osamu comes up behind and wraps his arms around your waist
“yes, ‘samu?” 
“i’ve already prepared us a nice bath with yer favourite scents.” he’s got his head resting on ur chin
“really? thank you~ i’ll be there in a bit”
but he doesn’t let go of you while you’re still scrubbing at the baking sheets.
“osamu, you can let go for now.”
“don’t feel like it.”
“i gotta wash the dishes since you did most of the cooking.”
“mmm, i’ll do it if ya gimme a kiss.”
you roll ur eyes bc what a cutie 
u turn ur head to give him a kiss but suddenly he 
he burps
that garlicy wine smell is just kinda there
“ew! ‘samu!!”
his face is real red but he’s also trying not to laugh because he’s still a dude and this is absolutely hilarious to him
“want another?” he starts teasing
“i’m not getting in the bath with you.”
“wait wait wait i’m sorry, i’ll go brush my teeth and give you a proper kiss”
Suna Rintarou
you two were taking the train home today
it was quite late due to practice going a little longer than usual, so he insisted he walked you back home today.
sunarin can be a good boyf sometimes ok
it was getting a little crowded on the train tho, since people were heading home or going out for dinner
luckily you had already grabbed seats so you were quite comfortable sitting side by side. 
you and suna have the type of relationship were you dont have to talk all the time
silence is v comfy.
he’s just scrolling through twitter on his phone while you’re looking around the car, lost in ur thoughts
suddenly you notice an old lady standing a little bit away from you and you stand up
“baa-san, please take my seat.” you whisper in the crowded carriage
“oh how kind of you. thank you, dearie.” she smiles and takes your seat while you stand in front of her and suna instead.
suna doesn’t realise this exchange has happened tho
(he’s on his phone as usual)
probably starting some fights on twitter
he decides to try to be a little romantic and pretends to stretch his arm around (who he thought was) you.
“rin.” 
why is your voice right in front of him?
“young man, i appreciate it but i’m married.”
suna jumps as he sees someone he did not recognise next to him.
he looks up and notices you had moved.
you’re giggling
the granny’s giggling
atsumu and osamu sitting opposite on the carriage look like they’re going to cry because they’re trying not to laugh
“i was just stretching. really.” he mumbles and crosses his arms, face red as a tomato
he’s so embarrassed.
Ginjima Hitoshi
sometimes the inarizaki vbc would go for an after practice snack at the nearby family mart
they were really hungry after an intense preparation for nationals which was in two weeks so kita insisted they all get something to fill them up on the way home
but lucky lucky ginjima hhehe
you (his classmate who he had a crush on) were working at the cash register today.
“welcome!” you greet everyone as they enter
he cant help but stiffen up a bit 
why are u so cute and cheery today
the 2nd years already know what to do.
“heyy, i think last week i bought ya that ramen right? ya owe me my konbini snacks today!” - atsumu
“yeah. you lost a bet to me last week so u gotta pay up. a pack of jelly fruit sticks please.” - suna
“forgot my money today, mind payin’ for my snacks too?” - osamu
“like hell i’m paying for all of you. especially you, osamu. you eat too much all the time.” 
aran’s noticed what’s going on,
“hey, if it’s just for today you can do it right? if ‘samu don’t pay ya back tomorrow i’ll nag him ‘til he does.” 
“fine...” his basket is full when he goes to the counter.
he’s trying his best not to have a red face while watching u scan the items, ur hair swaying slightly as u look back and forth between the objects and the screen.
“alright. 4,890 yen please!” GOD he hated how expensive it was, that’s almost all his weekly allowance but bc it’s u and ur voice saying it it’s kinda ok
“mm, ok.” he still has his eyes on you while he takes out his wallet and puts it on the counter.
yes
his wallet, not the money
“...” “...”
“excuse me, sir. this is...”
he almost slaps his face wtf he’s so embarrassed.
“s-sorry. just a little absent minded after practice.” he starts pulling out his cash.
“it’s fine! i know how hard you guys practice!” you smile while performing the rest of the transaction and pass him his big bag of goods. “good luck for nationals, ginjima-kun!”
he almost runs out of the store and is about to fight the rest of the 2nd years for watching and (suna) recording

So, I just wondering, one imagine with incident with chaotic trio (A-Deuce and Grim) that made the reader in pocket sized?
Imagine this...
Tumblr media
You should not have eaten that strange piece of buttered toast Ace had offered you.
Having skipped breakfast, you were desperate for sustenance. It had not occurred to you that your friend would decide--today of all days!--to prank you. The offer of free food was just too tempting to resist.
It had looked like normal buttered toast--a thick slice of bread, dressed in fat and topped with thin slices of something soft and cream-colored. Mushrooms, you were told.
In no time at all, you had polished off the toast--and what an odd flavor it had! The tastes of cherry tart, custard, pineapple, roast turkey, and toffee mingles with that of the hot buttered toast. And the mushrooms, they were rich and--
Something is wrong.
Your body had convulsed as your limbs caved and shrank in on themselves, crumpling you up like a piece of paper. By the time you had realized what was happening, it was too late--you were tiny.
Ace howls with laughter. “I can’t believe you fell for that!”
“Fell for what?!”
He straightens, puts on a snooty tone, and recites, “taste not the toadstools from the Heartslabyul Tea Garden. If thou eateth of the cap, the size of thy body shall be warped.”
“This isn’t funny, Ace!” you squeak angrily, stomping a foot.
“Says you! I think it’s hilarious!” he easily plucks you up from the ground, pinching you between his index finger and thumb. Ace flashes a cruel grin. “Wait ‘til Deuce and Grim get a load of this.”
“Wait ‘til we get a load of what?”
Deuce appears at the entrance to the Tea Garden, balancing cakes in both hands. He is quick to set them down on a table before approaching his classmate. Following at his heels is a familiar cat companion, nipping for stray crumbs.
“Ace, you should be helping us prepare for the Unbirth--” Deuce stops dead in his tracks. “Hey...! Ace...don’t tell me you went and--”
“Yeah, I did! So what?” he retorts defensively. “It was their fault for being dumb enough to fall for it!”
“I can’t believe you! Pulling something like this is so irresponsible...! Have you no shame?!”
“I don’t wanna hear that from you of all people, Deuce!”
“Hah?! What’re you tryin’ to say?!”
“I’m sayin’ it takes an idiot to know an idiot, idiot!”
“Call me an idiot one more time--see what happens!”
“Idiot, idiot, idiot!”
“Ace, you...!”
“Oi, stop fighting! What’d ya go and do to my minion, Ace?” Grim demands, squinting to get a better view of the mini you. “Issat really you, (Y/N)?”
“Of course it’s me--who else could I be?” you grumble, flailing against Ace’s grip. “Just help me already!!”
The argument is dropped--tempers cool, and the situation, quietly reassessed.
“...Magic mushrooms,” Deuce groans, shaking his head in disappointment. “Riddle is expecting (Y/N) at today’s Unbirthday party. The dorm leader will kill you when he finds out what you’ve done.”
“If he finds out!” Ace corrects. “Listen, there’s no harm done! It’s just a little prank, that’s all. I was gonna change them back, you know!”
“Then change them back!” Deuce commands, folding his arms.
“Wait!” Grim cries out. “If (Y/N) is that small...that means their stomach is small too, and they’ll eat less at the party! Which means...more cake for us!”
Both of the boys glare at him.
“Errrr...or not! Y-Yanno I was just kidding, right? Right?”
“It sure didn’t sound like it!”
“You’re one to talk, Ace!” you quip. “Now hurry up and get me back to normal...!”
“I’m workin’ on it--gimme a sec!” He pauses, tapping a finger against his chin. “Okay, let’s see...If I remember correctly, there’s a different mushroom in the gardens that will make you grow bigger.”
“I’ll trust your memory,” Deuce pledges, clenching a fist. “You guys should go find that antidote--I’ll do what I can to distract Riddle and stall the start of the party.”
“Got it!” Ace offers a mock salute to his friend before placing you on Grim’s back. He throws a cheeky wink. “That’ll be easier for you. Now c’mon, follow me!”
He races off into the maze of roses--down the rabbit hole, and into another whimsical adventure.
“Hang on tight, minion! This great and powerful Grim-sama will get ya normal-sized again in no time at all!” he dashes after Ace in hot pursuit--and you cling onto his fur for dear life.
The buttered toast and the mushrooms churn in your stomach.

Random ass analogy I thought of today:
Gay: I like coffee
Lesbian: I like tea
Bi: I like both!
Pan: I like both but I also like hot chocolate!
Ace: Gimme garlic bread.
Heterosexual: I really like soda, but if you like something else that’s ok.
Homophobe: I love soda so much that I think anyone who drinks anything else is disgusting and is going to hell!!!!!

Outside chapter 3: Food?
Third chapter is out! Not much to say about this one, expect that we finish up the day with some delicious Chinese takeout! Nothing heavy going on in here! Nope! Not at all!
When Stacy felt Scout was sufficiently distracted, she pulled her laptop out of her bag. 'Let's see, what was the group that guy was a part of? Vox I think...' She searched the group on Google, and found them almost immediately. She clicked the link to their website, and was struck by how professional it looked.
'So these guys are paranormal investigators...' From what the site said, they were a professional team that specialized in locating and researching. Specifically, they went after the newer, modern activity, like the Waygetter toys, or cursed animatronics.
'Where were you guys when I was a kid?' She shook her head. 'Focus, Stacy! Forget the past, focus on the present! You have a different problem to solve...<' She scrolled down and clicked on the contact button, which gave her an email address. She clicked over to her own email and typed in the address, but paused before writing anything.
'What do I even say to them? They didn't believe that Anthony guy, and he was one of them. Maybe if I send them proof...' Her eyes drifted to Scout, who was staring at the TV. Her attention was completely taken by the show, and she seemed oblivious to what Stacy was doing and thinking. 'A picture might not be enough, but maybe a video? But would she even agree to it? And could I even do that to her?'
Stacy shook her head, closing the laptop with a small sigh. 'I can't. Not right now. Maybe once things are settled...' She moved the computer to the side and stood up, stretching as much as she could. She then went into the kitchen and started digging through Sammy's fridge.
'Ugh, he's such a bachelor. There's nothing in here but some old lettuce and leftover soup. He'd better be buying groceries on his way back from work, or I'm telling Aunt Hannah he has no food again.' She closed the door, and then grabbed some bread and peanut-butter from the cupboard, and the last clean knife from one of the drawers. She quickly made herself a simple sandwich, cut it in half, then went back to the couch.
"Where'd you go?" Scout asked when she'd sat back down. She flopped over onto her lap, making Stacy jerk her plate up to keep it from getting hit. "You're missing the show!"
"I've seen it before, don't worry." Stacy assured her as she bit into the sandwich. "I'm not missing anything important."
"Hey, what's that?" She climbed into her lap and peered onto the plate, reminding Stacy of a cat. "Is that Host Food?"
"Yeah, it's a peanut-butter sandwich. I got hungry, and it was all Sammy had to eat, other than gross leftovers." She took another bite of sandwich, not really paying attention as Scout pulled the plate down a little. She watched the Puppet grab the other half of the sandwich 'Gross.', and examine it closely. Then, without warning, she tore a bite off and started chewing.
Stacy froze mid-chew, unsure of how to react. While she knew Scout had to have organs, she hadn't thought she actually could eat anything. It was quite surreal, watching a thing made of cloth chew and swallow real, human food.
"Hmm, not bad. Kind of sticky, though." She smacked her lips, then tore off another bite and turned back around to keep watching the show, leaving Stacy feeling like she'd smoked some of her cousin's weed. She shook the feeling off, though, deciding to come back to it at a later time. Like maybe when she'd actually had some weed.
Instead she finished her half of the sandwich(since she apparently only got to have half, now), and then pulled back out her laptop. She opened up a new doc, and started drafting up some plans.
'One way or another, I'm gonna figure this out.'
Several hours later, and Stacy had not figured it out. She had maybe one and a half pages of notes on the Puppets, most of which was on just Scout, and three different plans.
1. Go to the police.
-Too Risky for Scout
-Can lie about what's going on if needed
2. Ask Vox for help.
-Way too risky for Scout and me
-Can't lie to these guys about it
-They would know what they're doing tho
3. Arson.
-Has potential
-Can have a bon fire and roast marshmallows while we do it
-Could get arrested but might be worth it if we can get all the Puppets
-Might also be worth it just to see Scout try and eat a melty marshmallow
So far, plan number three was looking like the best one. It still wasn't the absolute best plan, but it was all they had at the moment. She'd have to talk to Will and see if he still had those gas cans in his garage.
"Hey, are you guys still here?" Stacy started at the sudden entrance of Sammy, surprised at how late it had gotten. She shut her laptop and put it to the side for now, standing up.
"No, we left and stole all of your soup." She told him. What you're seeing now is a hunger induced hallucination."
Sammy paused, the held up a plastic bag with a panda on it. "So you don't want the takeout I got?"
"Oooh, gimme!" Stacy rushed to snatch the bag from her cousin. She brought it over to the table, pausing briefly to pick Scout up from the couch. She started to set the food out while the Puppet settled over her shoulder, watching what she did. While she worked, she also pointed out what each different food was.
"So, all of this stuff is rice. We don't normally eat it, but they include it anyways with some of the meals. This is teriyaki chicken, and this is-"
"Stacy, really? Why would it even need to know what that stuff is?" Sammy tsked as he sat at the table and grabbed some noodle dish. "It's stuffed, and can't eat."
Stacy just stuck her tongue out at him and sat down. She picked up a pair of chopsticks and set about showing Scout how to hold and use them properly.
For awhile, they ate silently as Scout watched them, which Stacy personally thought was a little odd but didn't want to say anything. If the Puppet wanted to be weird, then she wasn't going to stop her. Sammy, on the other hand, soon fixed her with a hard stare and cleared his throat.
"So." Stacy looked up at him mid-chew, cheeks bulging. "What are you going to do when you get back to your apartment?"
She swallowed hard, putting on a more thoughtful expression. "Go back to class, tell Carol I can't do the article and why, maybe go tell the police about the psychopaths in the warehouse." She shrugged, digging out another bite of chicken from one of the boxes. "Y'know, stuff."
"And what about...?" He gestured to Scout with his chopsticks, and the Puppet glared back at him. Stacy, in a stroke of seldom seen genius, offered the Puppet her chicken before she could say anything.
"She's coming with me, of course. I live alone, so there shouldn't be a problem." Scout chomped down on the chicken, to Stacy's mild surprise. She quickly picked up some more food for herself. "Besides, Will is gonna love her. They're so much alike."
"Okay, ignoring the fact that you just fed that thing," Scout made an offended noise. "that sounds like a shit plan. There's no way in hell the police will believe you without proof."
"Fine, you're right. I have a back-up plan in the works, too." She thought back to her arson idea as she offered another bite to Scout. "But it needs work, so I can't put it in action yet." ‘And gasoline. Lots and lots of gasoline.’
"... Where's that food even going, anyways?" Both Sammy and Stacy turned to stare at Scout, who didn't even pause in her chewing to send them both a glare. Obviously, she wasn't going to be explaining anything, so Stacy turned back to her cousin.
"I have no idea. Don't think too hard on it."
'Don't think about why you're feeding her, either.' She ignored her own thoughts to shove some more food in her mouth. That was something to think about later. Or, perhaps, never. Never seemed like a much better time.
They finished their food, with Stacy giving Scout a few more bites, then boxed up the leftovers and put them in the fridge. Stacy then made Sammy get them a blanket because "It was too cold last night I almost froze to death!"
"It wasn't that bad, Stace." He told her, but fished out some spare bedding anyways. "It was near sixty."
"And yet, you had the air on or something. I swear it was colder than that in here." She insisted. She almost shivered just thinking about it. "You need to turn the AC off."
"The Ac's not on." He frowned at her, head tilted like he was studying one of his patients. "Maybe you're getting sick? You did spend God knows how long running around an abandoned warehouse with open wounds. I wouldn't be surprised if you caught something."
"God I hope not." She muttered, helping him spread the blanket out on the couch. "I gotta drive back to my apartment tomorrow. I don't wanna be sick while doing that."
"Well, if you do come down with something, promise me you'll go straight to the walk-in clinic or ER." Sammy told her seriously. "It could be something worse than a cold, like an infection from the stitches."
"Promises are curses." Stacy responded automatically. "But if something comes up, I will go to the walk-in. I don't wanna die after going through all of that bullshit."
"Wow, you're swearing. Must have been some pretty bad bullshit." He joked as he handed her a pillow. She resisted the urge to hit him with it.
"It was the second worst thing I've ever been through. It was horrible, and I hated it, but now it's over forever." Her eye twitched slightly as she placed the pillow on the couch, and saw Scout watching them from the side table. She was overcome with a childish urge to knock Scout over onto the pillow, which she quickly did.
"Wha-? Hey!" She pulled the blanket up over the Puppet, and heard a soft snort of amusement from Sammy.
"Are you ever going to grow up." He shook his head with a sigh as they watched the blanket covered lump move around.
"Nope!" She told him cheerfully. "I'mma be a kid forever!" She noticed the lump had stopped moving and leaned down, reaching for the blanket. "Uh, Scout? You oka-"
"DEATH FROM ABOVE!" Scout hit the back Stacy's head with far more force than necessary, knocking her onto the couch. She then bit onto the top of her head, though that didn't do much.
"AAUGH! How'd you even get up there?!?" She became aware of laughter and turned a death glare on her cousin. "Stop laughing! It's not funny Samuel!" She threw the pillow at him, but that didn't stop the almost hysterical laughter coming from him.
"Oh my God!" He gasped out, collapsing against the couch. "She just came out of nowhere! Holy shit!" He fell onto the floor while Stacy wrestled the apparently feral Puppet off of her head. She held her at arm's length, trying to simultaneously give her a disapproving look and check her over for injuries. It was hard to do, however, as she kept trying to bite her hand.
"Dude, seriously? That's not even gonna do anything to me..." She watched Scout thrash for a moment, actually struggling to hold onto her. "Okay, seriously, stop it right now, or you're going back under the blanket and I'm gonna sit on you." That got her to stop, but she kept up the death glare.
"Geez..." She looked over at Sammy, who was coughing on the floor, finally finished laughing. "It wasn't that funny..."
"It was fucking hilarious." He retorted between coughs. "Instant karma." He took a deep breath and started to pull himself up from the floor. "I like that Puppet." Stacy just sighed. "Whatever dude. Glad to know my pain is what made you like her." Unconsciously, she hugged Scout close and sat on the couch. She grabbed up the remote to turn Netflix back on, wanting a distraction from her humiliation. She let Scout drop onto her lap, and resisted the urge to drop her head into her hands.
'Defeated by a hand puppet. I'm never living this down.'
Sammy climbed up onto the couch seconds later, still wheezing. He went to speak, but another death glare shut him up before he could start. So he just shot her a smug look instead, holding out a hand for Scout to fist bump. "That was a pretty great move." He told the Puppet. Stacy ignored him, but heard a quiet "Hell yeah!" from Scout. "You should do it again the next time she does that."
"Do you want to die?" Stacy deadpanned, but Sammy just shrugged as he finally settled in to watch the show with them.
"Hey, it's just a suggestion." He couldn't keep that grin off of his face, and it was starting to annoy her.
"Whatever." She resolved to just ignore everything for now and watch the show. Sammy attempted a few more times to draw her into conversation, but quickly gave up when she didn't answer him and started watching too.
A few episodes later, however, and Sammy stood up and stretched. "Well, I need to get to bed, I have work tomorrow." He started towards his room. "I'll be gone by the time you two leave, so make sure you lock up tomorrow, okay?" "Kay. G'night Sammy." Stacy gave a halfhearted wave as he left, leaving Host and Puppet alone for the night.
"Leave?" Scout asked after they heard his door close. Stacy glanced down to see the Puppet staring up at her, a worried look on her face.
"Yeah. We gotta go home tomorrow." Stacy told her. "I gotta tell Carol about what happened at the HQ and find out what she wants me to do about that article. And then classes start back up soon, so I've gotta be back by then." "... I thought we were staying here." Scout said quietly, and Stacy felt a pang of... something. She wasn't sure what, but it made her feel bad and she decided right then that she hated it.
"Eh, it was more of a stopping point, really. Some place to get my mouth cut open and you off my hand." She shrugged, feeling uncomfortable. "And as much as I would love to hide here until I die, we can't actually stay on Sammy's couch forever. He doesn't have any food, and would expect me to clean."
"..." Scout was silent, and no longer paying attention to the show, instead staring down at her hands as she played with the hem of Stacy's shirt. The Human felt like she should say something, but didn't know what. Instead she stopped the show and turned off the TV, dropping the Puppet to the side and standing up.
"I'm gonna get ready and go to bed myself. We've got a long day ahead of us tomorrow, and I want to make sure I'm ready for it." She started towards the bathroom, almost missing the quiet "Okay." in reply. She hesitated at the doorway, but forced herself through anyways.
Scout would figure out it was better this way. Her apartment was even further from the HQ than Sammy's was, and thus safer than Sammy's. Plus, it would be better if it was just the two of them alone, and they could figure things out.
Things would get better, starting tomorrow.
They had to.

Reptiles & Rogues: The Accidental Florist (Part 2)
Tumblr media
Part 1
Tag list: @malibubarbievince​ @ace-is-back-and-he-told-you-so​ @fanofnightz​ @sunshinesuska​ @sodalitefully
Warnings: cussin’, hangover, reluctant career change, we’ve already established reader is hot in their pants for Izz
Notes: look for a special hairdressing appearance by @ace-is-back-and-he-told-you-so​
Before you’d gone to bed, you’d set a glass of water and a couple of aspirin on the end table next to your handsome visitor.  They were still there when you got up and quietly showered and dressed, because Izzy hadn’t awakened.
You tried not to stare at him at you made your way through your apartment, though it was hard.  You couldn’t help thinking again how angelic he looked, even though he was crashed out drunk on your couch and called himself Izzy Stradlin.  
You tilted your head, smiling faintly.  There was something boyish and vulnerable about him while he slept, and when you’d mentally added, and innocent, you”d made yourself go into the kitchen before you slapped some sense into yourself and woke him up.
While you were starting yourself (and him) some breakfast, you’d hear him stir, then holler, “Oh SHIT!  SONOFABITCH!  Oh, my head.”
You came running into your living room to find Izzy sitting upright on your couch, ruefully rubbing his right eye with the palm of his hand.  “What is it?” you asked in a whisper, then nodded at the water and painkillers.
He gulped them down, then wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.  “I can’t be late today, I’ll be fired.  And it’s 10 o’clock and I was supposed to be there at 9.”
“Oh no.  Where do you work?”
“The guitar store on Sycamore.  Well, I used to,” he added wryly.  Izzy had a dry, flat  way of speaking, quiet like Slash but without his Valley twang.  His voice sounded raspy this morning too, incredibly sexy, and you had to force yourself to focus on the problem at hand.
He absently dug into his shirt pocket and fired up a cigarette, then he rubbed his face with his palm and looked over at you.  It took him a second to register that you didn’t smoke, then he muttered, “Shit!” again.
“Sorry,” and he looked around, presumably for an ashtray.  You didn’t have one, so you went back into the kitchen and dug out a small plate.
“I’m sorry,” he said, at the same time you said, “I don’t mind if you smoke.”  His eyebrows raised, then he took another deep drag.  “Y/N?  Is that right?  Slash’s friend?” 
You nodded.  As fucked up as he’d been, he’d still remembered.
He squeezed his eyes shut.  “Can I use your phone?  I wanna get this over with.” He stretched a pale arm over and stubbed out his smoke, then dialed the number.
You silently watched him, noticing he wore a small silver hoop in his nose.  It suited him, it all did, the unrelieved black clothing and the long hair you were pretty sure was dyed to match, his effortlessly cool personality and husky tone.  You were sitting close enough to him you could feel his warmth, and it was definitely heating up in your apartment.  
He was right, his boss fired him as soon as he’d heard Izzy’s voice.  He handed you back the phone, hiding his embarrassment behind another cigarette.  
You tried to make him feel a little better.  “Uh, would you like something to eat?”
He shrugged, but slowly followed you into the kitchen.  You poured him a cup of coffee and cracked open a few eggs.  He shook his head at that, and you placed some bread in your toaster.
The two of you ate in silence, you tucking into your eggs and him hunched over his coffee and toast.  It’s not uncomfortable, although to be honest, it’s a little unreal.  You never eat breakfast with anyone that doesn’t have scales, and here was Izzy, gaining a little color to his face and unshyly meeting your eyes.  His gaze was so direct it nearly took your breath; you definitely hadn’t expected this when he was dozing like a wrecked angel on your couch.  
“Do you have to be at work?” he asked.  
“I have the day off,” you admitted.
He lit another cigarette.  “What do you do?”
You’d learned early on not to say “reptiles”; too many guys were just pussies about them.  “I work with a veterinarian” was your standard answer, and it was the one you gave Izzy.  
He nodded, and you could see the hint of a smile at his lips.  Then he pursed them around his smoke.“You wouldn’t happen to have a paper, would you?”
Your neighbor Mrs. Dunn always gathered them up for you to take to work and line the snake cages, and luckily she’d just dropped some off yesterday.  You rummaged through the bag until you found the most recent one and handed it to him, then fetched him a pen and the phone.
Six phone calls, half a pack of cigarettes and one pot of coffee later, a frustrated Izzy had no job and one remaining ad circled for a position at a flower shop.
Your eyes met his.
“No.  Just NO.”
“Well, can you draw unemployment?”
He flicked an ash onto his de facto ashtray, then crossed his arms and slouched in his chair.  “No,” he finally said, “I was only there for two weeks.”
“Your last job?”
He looked at the floor.  “The less said about that, the better,” he muttered.
“Then you might have to be a florist.”
For a second, you think Izzy might’ve growled at you.  Actually growled.
“Do you want to live in a cardboard box down by the river?” You joked, trying to lighten his mood.
He shook his head.  “No.  And I’m tired of the couch circuit.  No offense to you, it was nice of you to let me stay here.”
None taken, although you had to ask him, “Izzy, why did you get so wasted last night?”
“I dunno,” he sighed, those fierce greenish eyes locking onto yours again, “have you ever just wanted to feel something, but you don’t really know what it is?”
Every day of my life.  You nodded.
He looked down, then back up at you.  “I’m gonna have to call that number, huh.”
“Looks that way.”  You smiled at him.  “You can do it, soldier.”
When he hung up, Izzy looked absolutely stunned.  “They want me to start this afternoon,” he mumbled, eyes wide.
You had only heard his side of the conversation, so you asked, “Are they going to teach you how to arrange flowers?”
He shook his head.  “No.  I just have to sell them.”
“Oh, you can do that.”
He arched an eyebrow.
“You sold guitars, didn’t you?”
He looked up at the ceiling.  “I played guitars while I worked there…”  He snorted, one side of his mouth twisting up.  “Guess I don’t have any choice.”
Izzy had asked if he could shower at your place, and the first thing you’d noticed when he got out was he looked utterly edible with wet hair.
The second was he was wearing your gold blouse, a few buttons left undone and tied at the waist.  
You opened your mouth to speak, but before you could, he’d smirked and said, “I’ll give it back, I promise.  I’m just dressing for success.”
You let out a surprised squawk and he fought back a smile.  You had to admit, he did look good in it.
He probably looked good in everything.
An unyielding melancholy was beginning to settle in, bringing a lump to your throat as the two of you got into your car. You were going to take him to work, then swing by the hairdresser’s, but you weren’t at all prepared to say goodbye to Izzy.
Neither one of you said much on the way.  Izzy held a cigarette between his lips and fiddled with the dial on the radio until he found “Honky Tonk Women.”
“Hey, Y/N, do you like the Stones?”
You glanced over, hearing what might be a flicker of hope in his voice and sensing this was very important to him.
“Never heard of them.”
Izzy’s head swung around, and you barked out a laugh at his open mouth.  He wryly smiled and nodded, then the two of you retreated back into your respective silences. 
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues. 
You parked on the street in front of the florist’s and you wanted him to stay so badly your chest began to physically ache with sadness.  
“Well.”  Izzy didn’t seem all that enthused to exit your car and begin his new career.  He fidgeted and shifted in his seat, drumming his fingers on the door.
 Those penetrating eyes finally looked over at you.  “Thank you,” he said quietly, then he was gone.
You’d spent the rest of your day in an impenetrable fog.  You hair looked great, but Madiliene could’ve shaved you completely bald and you wouldn’t have noticed.
When you returned to your apartment, you could still smell Izzy’s cigarettes, even though he’d cleaned up his ashtray and taken out your trash.  Instead of opening a window, you’d plopped down where he’d sat on your couch and fought back tears as you realized how heartbreakingly lonely your place really was without his piercing eyes and raspy voice. 
He’d left his black t-shirt on your bathroom floor, you’d discovered later, and when you went to sleep that night you’d slept with it in your arms because it still smelled like him.

Determined Alice Chapter 4
The inside of the bar was a sight to behold. It wasn't falling apart, exactly, but it did have that older, run down look. Sickly green paint peeled off the walls, the wooden tables wobbled from under the patrons' elbows, and there were a couple of what Meiko desperately hoped were beer stains on the floor. Animal heads with bald spots dotted the walls. None of the bar stools matched.
Wearing confidence like a new outfit she was eager to show off, Meiko stalked into the bar and dropped onto a barstool next to the guards. Their conversation came to an abrupt halt, and Meiko could feel their eyes traveling up and down her body as they sized her up, and some maybe checked her out while they were at it. Meiko was used enough to it that it didn't bother her if one or two of the guards kept their eyes on her for a moment too long, which she was sure exactly what happened.
"Gimme the strongest thing you've got," Meiko said when the bartender came to request her order. She slapped a gold coin on the counter. "And some bread, if you please?"
The bartender grunted and accepted the coin. He bit it to test its authenticity, and Meiko had to resist grinning at the look of surprise on his face. Now that he knew the coin was real, the bartender didn't hesitate any longer to fill Meiko's order.
Meiko spun around, rested her elbows on the bar, and leaned back. Most patrons may have turned their heads when she first entered, but now they returned their attention to whatever they were doing before. The guards, however, still studied her.
"Excuse me, miss," began one of the men. He was neither the oldest or the youngest of the group, instead somewhere close to the middle, but the way the others let him speak indicated that either he was the one in charge or the only one they trusted to speak for the group. It was possibly because he had the prettiest face.
Receiving her drink and loaf of bread, Meiko took a big gulp from the mug before she responded, "Yeah?"
"Would you mind sitting elsewhere? My men and I are discussing important matters."
So he is in charge. "Don't mind me," Meiko casually replied before taking another sip. "I'm not bothered in the slightest."
"With all due respect, we're not really concerned whether or not you're bothered."
Meiko turned the upper half of her body and allowed part of her now unzipped coat to fall with the gravity, exposing some of her cleavage. "Then I don't see what the problem is."
While the other men definitely noticed Meiko's breasts, even if some pretended not to, the one speaking didn't react. He merely maintained eye contact as he stated, "Please, my men and I are tired and would like to relax somewhat as we discuss future affairs. If you could relocate elsewhere so we can discuss confidential information without risking too much civilian eavesdropping, you would have my eternal gratitude."
I'll tell you what you can do with your gratitude. Meiko mentally swore. Either he's got some serious self-control, or he's queer or ace. Just my luck.
Changing tactics, Meiko picked up both mug and loaf and said, "Well excuse me, sir. I didn't realize only men in uniform were allowed to relax wherever they pleased."
The man didn't appear to care if Meiko's feelings were hurt. It was fine. Nose turned upwards, Meiko spun around and stalked towards an empty table in the corner, close to the washroom. She plopped down into the chair and took another swig of her drink, the alcohol burning her throat as it ran down. For as cheap as this bar looked, at least it didn't water down its beverages.
"I'm so sorry about him."
Just as Meiko anticipated, when she set her mug back down, one of the guards had approached her table. He was the youngest of the bunch, and in every way, the stereotypical cute guy. With light brown skin, blond hair and blue eyes, and the confidence of someone who knew his dimples could kill but wasn't sure how to use them to his advantage, Meiko knew all the right things she needed to do to play this lad right into her hands.
"I'm not too salty about the whole thing," Meiko said, waving her hand in a way that invited the lad to sit with her. "I'd walk around like I sat on a broom handle too if I came from the Capital. Is it really as bad as the news is portraying? It seems like the sweaty armpit of the goddess's evil twin sister over there."
There was a pink tinge to the lad's cheeks. It took him a moment to find his voice. "Yes, ma'am. An assassin was caught spying inside of Lady Sora's mansion. His execution was meant to be just like any other execution – done and over with, hardly anyone caring at all.
"Only we got word of rebels intending to break him out. Now we're running around all over the district, trying to stop any suspicious individuals."
It took all of Meiko's self-control to not furrow her brows. Who sold us out?
"Oh, um," the young soldier began looking around, "but I suppose I shouldn't be telling you this."
"Don't worry," Meiko promised as she placed her index finger against her mouth, "my lips are sealed."
The lad relaxed in the chair and let out a steady breath. His curled fingers loosened. Seeing this, Meiko promised not to wring too much private information from the boy. This lad was too innocent-looking to be much of a threat. If Meiko got him into too much trouble, she wouldn't feel good about herself for a day or two.
"So," she said lightly, as if discussing the best time to purchase oranges imported from the Summer Continent, "are you coming from the Capital or returning?"
There must not have been any harm the lad could see in answering the question, for he responded, "Coming. We're on route to Synchronicity. Higher up cares more about stopping anyone from coming in than fighting them once they already arrived at our doorstep."
"Really? Won't that leave the Capital vulnerable?"
"In most cases, yes, but some of our best fighter teams have stayed behind while the best scouters and the rest of us nut cases are out and about in search of rebels we don't even know for sure will show."
You're a talkative one, aren't you? So glad your pretty face came to check on me.
Before Meiko could open her mouth to wiggle the last bit of information she needed – in which direction was the Capital, someone cleared his throat. When Meiko and the lad turned their attention towards the sound, they saw the guard from before looking down on them. The lad's fingers curled again.
"Return to your seat," the man said. "Now."
"Yessir," the lad said in a rush, jumping from his seat and scurrying away without another sound.
Meiko hoped he wouldn't get into too much trouble for her sake.
Pretending that the lad did not just reveal potentially sensitive information, Meiko leaned back in her chair and said, "Why'd you have to ruin the conversation? The pretty one was just telling me the best place to get a drink around these parts."
"He doesn't drink."
"That you know of."
The man narrowed his eyes. "Look, lady, I don't know what game you're playing, but you need to stop it right now. It's obvious enough already that you're up to something."
"I'm not up to anything." Meiko slowly tore a piece off the loaf and popped it into her mouth. "All the lonely woman I am wants is some decent conversation. Is that too much to ask?"
"I think you should leave."
Laughing without humor, Meiko said, "I'm sorry, but who are you to tell me to leave this establishment? This isn't your business. I doubt you can kick anyone out just because you got a fancy uniform on your person."
"You think I won't?"
"Go ahead," Meiko challenged, smirking. "I'd like to see you try."
The problem, however, was Meiko didn't expect the man to try. She was sure he would grunt and storm away, and maybe complain to whoever was in charge about having her escorted off the premises. So when he lurched forward and grabbed Meiko by the wrist, instinct took over.
With her free hand, Meiko instantly had a knife prepared to make its new home inside the man's neck. However, something faster than her caught her wrist before she could send her blade flying. Before she could contemplate what had happened, a gruff voice spoke.
"Is this lady causing you trouble, sir?"
Eyes flickering to Meiko's exposed knife, the man replied, "A lot more than I would like to think."
"Shall I remove her from the premises?"
"Yes."
That was the end of the conversation. The man behind Meiko yanked her weapon away and pinned both her wrists behind her back. Kicking and screaming, Meiko tried to break free from the man dragging her out of the bar. Everyone turned their attention towards the scene, but none made any effort to help Meiko. All the thrashing Meiko could do was single-handedly but futility fight her way out of this large man's grip.
When she was hauled out of the bar, the winter air bit into her skin again. The wind had picked up. Jerking, Meiko reacted to the piercing air as she continued to try and fail to break free.
"Meiko! Meiko! Enough! It's me, Meiko."
Meiko's flailing came to a halt when recognition crashed through her. In her stunned state, the man holding her back loosened his grip. When she regained herself, Meiko broke free, spun around, and glared at Big Al.
"I had everything under control back there," she snarled.
Big Al didn't even bat an eye. "Really? It didn't look like it from where I was standing."
"You didn't have to get involved."
"I'm pretty sure if I didn't, a fight would have broken out by now, and the police would have been called. Is that what you want? To get arrested? Maybe you aren't aware of this, but you would be useless to help anyone if you were locked up in a jail cell of some small town in the middle of nowhere."
A remark was on Meiko's tongue, but before she could say it, Big Al grabbed her by the upper elbow and began dragging her away. Meiko again reacted by trying to get one of her knives, but she stopped when Big Al snapped at her to not try it. For a moment, Meiko began to reason with herself that this was Big Al and she didn't need to fight him off. Only emotion didn't always find logic. Not when this scene was all too familiar.
The last time something like this happened—
"LET ME GO!" she shrieked, and Big Al immediately dropped his hand. Meiko took a big step back, heartrate accelerating.
Big Al stared at Meiko as if he had never seen her before. His golden eyes widened at her curling in figure. Meiko could see the understanding beginning to form in his softening features.
Before he could so much as utter a sound, Meiko spun on her heel and dashed away from the man. The winter wind stung her eyes. That was why tears were rising and threatening to fall.
Finding an empty alleyway, Meiko turned the corner and dropped to the ground. She hugged her legs and rested her chin on her knees. For the next few minutes, Meiko focused on her breathing. Her heartrate slowed. Her inhales and exhales soon became even again.
All the while, she kept her eyes open. Nobody would sneak up on her a second time, not if she could help it. That was how she noticed Big Al find her a minute after she fled but remained a few feet away while she regained control of herself. Shame dropped onto Meiko like a ton of bricks. The last thing she wanted was for anyone, especially Big Al, to see her like this.
Well, she reluctantly decided, there's no going back now.
Picking herself up, Meiko shuffled her feet towards the older man. Big Al kept his arms crossed over his chest, only tightening his hold on himself as Meiko drew nearer. When she stopped approaching after coming within earshot, Big Al kept his words short and low.
"Either you can run off again, or I can give you a second chance in this mission. The only condition is you do as I say. No questioning orders. No doing things your way. Just what I say when I say it. Your choice."
As much as Meiko didn't want to be honest with herself, she knew there were no better choices. This mess they were in was all her fault. If not for her, she and Big Al would still be with their legion, possibly in the Capital by now instead of God knew how many miles away.
"Fine," was all Meiko said, and that was the end of it.
Big Al merely nodded. "Good. Now, let's go. While you were gathering your information, I found a way to get us to the Capital and get some much needed sleep in while we're at it."
"Really? How?"
"I'll explain later. Right now, we need to move."
With that said, Big Al turned and began to walk away without checking to see if Meiko would follow. Meiko hugged herself and contemplated walking the other way, leaving all of this behind for good. After a few seconds and a deep breath, Meiko marched forward, walking at a quick enough pace to not lose Big Al but to keep the distance between them.
