by PixiePerson19
(Oh, this is rottmnt mikey btw, I just want to put it in here)

This is the first story I'm putting on the list without actually reading it
It's been in my 'to read' for a while so I'm just gonna trust my instincts and say that is pretty a lovely story <3
(Also, let it be known that the author (PixiePerson19) is literally hunting me,
I've seen them comment on almost every fanfic I've ever read, so now every time I open comments I bet that I will se them)
(Like, sir, what did I do to you ( ; ゚Д゚) )
Anyway, got distracted again-
Umm-
Idk-
That's enough for today :D
My goal was like 20 fanfics but I ended up with 11-12 of them, srry ( ゚ε゚;)
Plz tell me if you see any mistakes (like grammar mistakes, or maybe I imported the wrong link or sm-)
And, I'm so, so, so, sorry for basically lying about how fast will this list come out
I really thought I could do it fast but then a lot of things happened, and
yaddi, yaddi, yadda
So yea, haha-
I hope you love these fanfic as much as me <3
Have fun reading!!!

Should you fight my characters? Asura Flavor!
Tumblr media
Mhonde
Battle music: My Algo - I am Robot and Proud
Should you fight Mhonde? Let me get this perfectly clear, you want to fight MHONDE? The two foot tall, mostly blind engineer who names all his golems like they were dogs and is a walking, unceasing hype machine for his giant girlfriend? Okay just checking. So you should you fight him - absolutely not what is wrong with you. He's a good person, kind-hearted, friendly, and will try to diffuse all situations.
Who initiates the fight? By initiate, I mean you would honestly have to just attack him, he will try reasoning and compromise for anything. Maybe if you talked poorly about Raj, he would rewire your house out of spite and make it turn the power off just to the alarms, clocks, electronics so you are late for everything. But no fights would happen.
Who would win? ...he can't see hardly anything, he's maybe the size of a toddler, and he's distracted by tinkering with golems. You could crumple him like an aluminum can with one good hit. But also don't.
Tumblr media
Fhiaskko
Battle music: Flight of the Bumblebee - (feat. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov) (Gravel Dubstep Remix)
Should you fight Fhia? For an entirely different reason than Mhonde, no you should not fight Fhia. She is actively cursed and you are liable to die to weird things even before you try to actually fight her. Meteor, heart attack, combustion, getting hit by a car, you name it, it could happen. So no, avoid her at all costs.
Who initiates the fight? I mean she's former Priory, so would rather talk you to death than fight you. You would initiate it but regret it given the nature of her curse.
Who would win? Fhia but not because she tries, just because something fell on you and killed you before you get a swing in on her. Huh! Another statistical improbability for the books!
Tumblr media
Bhruizz
Battle music: Roygbiv - Boards of Canada
Should you fight Bhruizz? For yet another entirely different reason, no. Xe is very laid back and chill, not one for getting stirred up easily, and not one for starting drama. However, xe fights unpredictably being a berzerker so it's easy to get caught off guard. Morally, xe isn't a bad person just kinda keeps to xemself so there's not really a reason to.
Who initiates the fight? Yet again it would have to be you, xe doesn't have energy or inclination to fight.
Who would win? It's a 50/50. If you fight xem and they don't enrage, you win. Xe would honestly forfeit like 5 seconds into the fight - letting you win. Don't have energy for that. If xe does enrage, xe is absolutely winning. Bhruizz goes all in when xe does choose to fight and is good at both ranged, melee, and mid - so you're up shits creek there.
Tumblr media
Mhunizz
Battle music:
(When you first encounter him) Not a Word, O My Friend - Peter Cavallo
(When he realizes you aren't buying his act and he's trying to escape)
Perchin'- Louie Zong
Should you fight Mhunizz? Yes. He's a slimy little asshole who tries (and usually succeeds in) UWUing his way through life and guilt tripping people to get what he wants. Or stealing it if it doesn't work. Mhunizz is extremely selfish and arrogant. While at his core he isn't a bad person, he also just thinks of himself, and an ass kicking might mellow him out for a while.
Who would initiate the fight? You would because he tries to sob story his way through any form of conflict. Once you get past the puppy dog eyes, he will realize that he can't cry and lip quiver his way out of this one.
Who would win? Oh if it was an actual fight you would for sure win, he's a Guardian but most of his magic is defensive and healing based to make people rely on him and trust him. However, it's far more likely that he's gonna run away as soon as he finds out the 🥺didn't work.
Tumblr media
Khenazzi
Battle music: Authority - Vondkreistan
Should you fight Khenazzi? From a moral standpoint, yes. She's made her way high in the Inquest ranks through cruel ingenuity. However, from an actual combat standpoint, I might argue against it. She uses custom poisons she's engineered herself and honestly even if you win against her now - you will be having issues for the rest of your life because of the slow acting side effects. It's her last laugh, she plays the slow game.
Who would initiate the fight? She would. Khenazzi is of the belief that Asura are the natural rulers of Tyria given their intellectual superiority and thus everyone else needs to comply or die. Given that she's higher rank, it would be hard to find her though, you would have had to be looking. Which, is an invitation for death, in her book.
Who would win? She's not physically the strongest but she's great at evading. And while if you can catch her it will be game over, she poisons the dickens out of everything. She would even let you catch her just so she can make sure to be able to stab you at least once with her daggers so you get a taste of the poisons. So yeah, you can kill her, but you will be suffering for the rest of your life. Poisons leading to blindness, organ failure, cognitive deterioration and chronic pain.
Tumblr media
Dhizzi
Battle Music: Held - Holy Other
Should you fight Dhizzi? There's nothing to fight about her? She's already stuck in the Mists, you can't kill her. Chances are she wouldn't kill you either, so not real point. Morally, she may be strong willed, but she does what she can to cheat the inevitable for others. Giving everyone more than a fighting chance. She helps, in her own way. So no, it would amount to nothing.
Who would initiate the fight? You would and she would promptly laugh. You're gonna fight her? Really? Don't you have something better to do? She's already broken all the rules regarding death by sneaking people out of various planes of the Mists. Fisticuffs with the forbidden ferryman doesn't seem like a bright idea.
Who would win? No one is. She's unkillable in her current state, more of a force than a person at times, and doesn't have time for skirmishes with people. She's got countless dead to keep track of and make sure they get back into the fight. Maybe if you wanted to see what dying felt like but didn't want to commit to it - she'd oblige you.

hi! wow i super love your art and i don’t have enough dabihawks in my life 🥺 was wondering if you had any fic recs for them?? 💕💕
aah thank you so much!! 💕💕 💕💕
BOY IF I DO HAVE!! alright buckle up this might get long (most are fluff and SFW~ i’ll put a NSFW warning but be sure to look at tags in all of them!!)
Bed I made (lie in it with me) by  silverwordswrites
“Touya is in desperate need of a plus-one for his brother's wedding and Keigo is infinitely curious about the man who he was sure used to hate him in college.” 
-- the summary says everything and honestly it’s one of the most romatics dabihawks fics i’ve read.
On-going
He Doesn't Love Me by  Fatally
“Dabi doesn't love him. He's accepted that thorny truth, swallowed it down and let briars grow in his chest, drinking down his blood like water.Or: The one in which Hawks settles for pining for his entire life and doesn't realize Dabi's been staring at him the entire time, too.” 
-- I love pinning Hawks with a burning passion.
Completed
sweetheart, is that you? by  fuckendeavor666
“dabi and hawks say i love you (without actually saying i love you) in five different ways.“ 
-- This is my absolute fave dabihawks fic
Completed
Deck the Halls With Boughs of Folly by  DrAphra
“In which the League has acquired a new fancy mansion -with all the heating and food and plush beds they could possibly need - but they still prefer to spend the day out in the wilderness with just each other. Plus Hawks.“ 
-- Honestly all Aphra’s dabihawks fics are more than worth it but this one has a special place on my heart.
Completed
fuck, im so young - orphaned
“Todoroki Touya writes poems.
Words upon words of heartfelt confessions, letters of sing song fantasies, syllables of feelings he never got to say out loud.
When Todoroki Touya hits sixteen, he burns himself to death.
When Dabi hits twenty four-
He meets Hawks.” 
-- i don’t know how to explain but this fic it’s pretty
Completed
Feathers and Feelings by  Toboe1087
“Hawks keeps leaving feathers on his pillow, and Dabi's about had it.
(like hell he'd let anyone else have them, though)”
-- Dabi preening Hawks feathers is a blessing
Complete
(this is not a) swan song by  bittermoons
“"Who's your favorite, then?"
"Hawks." Touya doesn't miss a beat. "Definitely Hawks."
"What? Seriously? How come?"
"He has his flaws, but at the end of the day, he's trying to do good. It's something he always strives for. Dabi, on the other hand...if it weren't for Hawks, he wouldn't be a hero, that's for sure."
[Or: How a secret is revealed, and what comes afterwards.]”
-- Adorable no quirks AU with manga artist Touya and oblivious Keigo! Another author i adore pretty much all dabihawks works.
Completed
You can't trap the sky in a bottle by thyandra
“Letting Toga organize the accommodations for their trip might have been a mistake. This particular truth becomes obvious to Keigo as he opens the door of his hotel room for the first time. There, staring back at him mockingly, is a single, king-sized bed. It’s only by virtue of all the years spent perfecting his poker face around his adoptive parents, that he manages to keep his face straight. At his side, Touya clicks his tongue. “They must’ve given us the wrong key.””
--(no quirks AU) I really love they way Dabi and Hawks are written here i can’t express it in words and so so much pinning
Completed
A Tale as Old as Time by  EloFromMars, Gotcocomilk
“Dabi and Hawks are hit by the most improbable Quirk: both are yeeted in Fairytales land and have to rely on each other to get out of this.“
-- this was such a fun read omg
Completed
A Romance Written All Over Your Body by  minatsukinoamayo
//NSFW mind the tags!//
“Hawks is assigned to infiltrate the League of Villains in order to expose them. Hawks usually never fails a mission, but Keigo usually never falls in love, either.A story of how Hawks falls from grace to become a villain, because hero society has failed them all.
OR
5 times they're not in a relationship and 1 time they are.“
-- you know those fics you say “one more chapter” and it’s 3AM
Completed
it caught spark in your eyes by  youareoldfatherwilliam
//Mature - Implied Sexual Content//
“Keigo’s quirk is powerful, but sometimes it comes with unintended side effects.
Or: A 5 + 1 fic of five times the more…instinctively bird-like parts of Keigo’s quirk took over accidentally during his relationship with Dabi, and one time it happened entirely on purpose.“
-- I was screaming about this particular fic on twt the other day pls give it a read if you can it’s so so so good! Any fic that has Hawks with bird traits has a special place on my heart
Completed
The Others by  threesipsmore
//Mature - 2 sexual scenes, nothing too explicit but they’re there//
“"Skeptic's starting to think he’s more important than me,” Toga sneers, an acidic edge to her voice. “Making decisions on his own, sending out birdie without even talking to me first.”
She’d simply acquiesced to cooperating with Skeptic, but from day one the complaints had never stopped. In this tiny room layered with sushi and cakes, Dabi was forced to listen to her whining.”
-- You go birb, you get that man
Completed
Equivalent Exchange by  inexchangeforyoursoul
“Keigo blinks the blurry oblivion away from his eyes, although some part of it is oddly stubborn and to stay indefinitely. There's three things he's certain of: first, he’s alive. Second, just by looking at the bed and windows he can tell this is no villain hospital or torture room. Third: something feels wrong. Very wrong.
The silence… is deafening.
xxx
To obtain, something of equal value must be lost.
If so, what of a bird that has lost its wings?”
-- i had so many feelings reading i can’t physically explain them to you also PINK HAIR DABI PINK HAIR DABI
Completed
dabi's 5-step guide to being a better parent than endeavor by  twinkfrankenstein (orphan_account)
“A little voice inside his head whispered spitefully about how this was no place for a child, and how he was making a mistake and would only traumatize the kid, yada yada. He responded with an equally spiteful-
“Fuck off, its not like I planned to do arson today.”
(or: how Dabi becomes a good dad just to spite his own, realizes he kinda sorta maybe likes Hawks for realsies, begrudgingly admits the League cares and finally comes to terms with his protective side. Not in that order.)“
-- this legit made me laught out loud idk what else tell you
Completed
The Todoroki In-Laws by  aphrodaisyacs
“Over 10 years after the fight against the Paranormal Liberation Front, Rumi, aka the part-time hero Miruko and the proud wife of one Todoroki Fuyumi, decides it would be an awesome idea to create a groupchat with the significant others of the other Todoroki siblings.
Maybe things would be easier if its members weren’t two Pro Heroes, a former one and a rehabilitated villain, but…Honestly, where’s the fun in that?”
-- this is not dabihawks focused but it’s so funny pls
Completed
With Being Petty Comes Consequences by  CursedUndead
“"When we were saying fuck pro heroes, I didn't think you literally meant FUCK them," Tomura grumbles, kicking over an empty beer can.
"Pretty judgmental for someone fucking a pro twice their age," Touya says.
Tomura squints, and says, "Ten years is not twice my age."
Or, after spending Enji's money, Touya is forced to babysit for the number 2 hero to pay him back. Touya makes it his life's mission to fuck his new boss.”
-- this only has 4 chapters but i know it’s going to be one of my faves
On-going
The Truth series by  AmethystUnarmed
-- Hawks gets hit with a truth quirk and starts to be actually free by the power of love, friendship and a bit of crime <3
The last entry is on-going
and if we sit and count it up it's really not a lot by  sincerelysamedt
“Hawks finds a bento box in his messenger bag and almost cries.
"Is that a loving wife bento?"“
-- please PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD READ THIS ONE /sobbing noises/
Completed
steal your heart by  darlingest
//Mature//
“When infamous thief Hawks announces that he is going to steal the heart of Endeavor's son, everyone expects him to prey on Shoto Todoroki - nobody suspects Touya to be the actual target.“
-- Villain Hawks and civilian Dabi are my guilty pleasure and this one it’s so soft too i’m- djsahfdjkfhadf
Completed
darling, thank god it’s this universe we’re in (and you can annoy me as much as you please) by  juurensha
��� Todoroki Rei divorces Endeavor and moves all four of her children into a small apartment next to a boy with wings as red as the hair of her eldest son. “
-- This was one of the first dabihawks fics i ever read and, to this day, i come back to it when i feel i need the extra burst in happy feelings and check their other works too! Honestly all are such a good fucking read

hella could you spear some sakuatsu fics i’m having a sakuatsu brainrot and i trust your opinion
YES I ABSOLUTELY CAN I HAVE NO JOKE READ HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF WORDS WORTH OF SAKUATSU FICS THESE PAST FEW WEEKS AND I SHOW NO SIGNS OF STOPPING OKAY LET'S GO
ATSU101: how to fall in love with your fake boyfriend by solyn - this was THE sakuatsu fic for me. i literally hadnt heard of the ship before and i didnt even like atsumu at the time lmaoo (now i think i kin him which is... mortifying). honestly i aspire to be as funny as this author. this fic just sucked me in and i read the whole thing so quickly. the fake-dating au we all wanted. it’s hilarious but also touching, and atsumu is so dense i almost screamed at my laptop but in the fun ‘reading a slowburn’ kind of way
finders keepers by solyn - after the above fic i checked out the rest of this author’s works and found this. god i love this fic so fucking much. it’s hilarious and heart-warming and insightful and it made me want to face the world again at a time when i might have preferred hiding away a little longer. sakusa is babysitting his sister’s kids and ALL of them run away from him while in the middle of tokyo, leading him and the Handsome Stranger Currently Witnessing His Mental Breakdown to go on an adventure around the city to find them all again, falling in love in the process. the cameos of the other haikyuu characters are also golden, particularly iwaoi bc i adore them. just. read it. you won’t regret it
play among the stars by buttonstuck - i read this in a single day when i was travelling the other week and i have NO regrets. i absolutely love sakusa's characterisation in this and while i love atsumu being an oblivious dork in fics, him being clever scratches a really specific itch in my brain and this fic did not disappoint. also even just the premise is so fucking genius? i know the author was very open that a lot of inspo was from the martian but i still couldn't have written this in a million years. they are stuck on the MOON together. and initially that made me unsure bc it sounded quite far-fetched but i am so glad i took a chance and read this
three sheets to the wind by fairycake - PIRATE AU!!! this was written so well it genuinely could have been a published book and i wouldn't have questioned it. the characterisation of EVERYONE is just done so well that it was totally immersive, especially kagehina's interactions genuinely felt canon. i also literally almost got emotional about the ending bc it's so much more than just a sakuatsu fic, it's also about finding your dream and learning to live for yourself and there's found family and UGH
insert coin to play by fairycake - same author as above and the fic im currently reading. it's still being updated which is exciting and when i tell you ive read almost all of it today alone holy shit i got SUCKED IN. i wouldn't normally have clicked on this just bc the tags looked like it was just honestly gonna be smut (which ive noticed is a trend with sakuatsu but whatever) but i trust this author after three sheets to the wind and they did NOT disappoint. i had no reason to worry about the tags bc im almost caught up and all they've done is kiss and threaten to kill each other, i genuinely think atsumu's presence just requires it's own onslaught of tags lmao. i think this might be my favourite sakuatsu fic so far? and im not even finished yet? the plot is just so well thought out that it could genuinely be a real book and i wouldn't question it, and there's moments of humour that have genuinely cracked me up and holy shit the characterisation. THE! CHARACTERISATION! their banter and the enemies to lovers and the tension is just *screams*. this is professional level writing. also the wholesome miya twin content. i just. 'if you're gonna die, die where i can find you' what if i started sobbing uncontrollably. I JUST REALISED I NEVER EVEN SAID WHAT THIS IS ABOUT it's such a cool premise this author never misses. it's a cyberpunk universe where omi and atsumu are bounty hunters! and they're each other's biggest rivals! but then they have to work together against a common enemy aRE YOU SEEING THIS SHIT-
burden of blame by deathbelle - this is another fic where the characterisation and enemies to lovers was just fucking nailed. like idk what it is about sakuatsu writers that just makes them hit the target EVERY FUCKING TIME but i want what they're having. give me enemies to lovers where they actually want each other dead and go from that all the way to being willing to burn the city down for each other. that's what burden of blame and insert coin to play do super super well. burden of blame is a really big one for the ship but if you haven't read it, it's a yakuza au where atsumu goes under the protection of the gang sakusa's in and they're forcefully partnered. the plot is so well thought out and there's a twist that literally made me pace my fucking room when i got to it. it's just so good and i ADORE both sakusa and the miya twins characterisations in this (im a sucker for wholesome miya twin content if you cant tell and this didn't disappoint)
clipped to you by littleboat - this is actually just a one-shot but it is fucking ADORABLE and i have been utterly obsessed with the 'sakusa wears hair clips' hc ever since. like just. the mental imagery. the mental imagery. atsumu never stood a chance

Bad Advice - Jack Kline Imagine (Supernatural)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Title: Bad Advice
Pairing: Jack Kline X Reader
Requested: by @holdbu
Word Count: 929 words
Warning(s): awkwardness, mentions of sex
Summary: Rowena is just trying to help... the only question is if her advice is needed at all.
Author's Note: I didn't make this the reader being clumsy as much as it's Jack not quite getting the point.
Hey! I did a rewrite of the ending of Supernatural. It took a really long time to complete, so it would mean a lot to me if you check it out. Here’s a link! (it's on my personal account)
---------------------------------------
"Nope," I shook my head, walking away from Rowena, who was sitting in the map room with me. "I think you're great but I don't think you're the best choice for dating advice."
"Why not," she asked, standing to follow me through the library. "I've had more experience than anyone else in the bunker."
"Not the kind of experience I'm looking for," I replied. "Jack and I are... I don't know... different."
"I'm not trying to change that," she crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm just trying to help you and Jack... progress."
"Ew, stop it."
"Oh, for God's sake," she rolled her eyes. "Just sit down. Let me give a few pointers."
I sighed but let Rowena grab my shoulders and guide me to a chair.
"Oh, don't be like that," she said. "I'll keep it mild."
"I'm gonna regret this," I mumbled.
"Alright, negativity is not appreciated," she replied.
Rowena had me sitting there for nearly an hour. She promised that all of the advice was going to be useful in the long run. It all seemed strange and relatively useless. It was all for this part of the relationship that Jack and I just didn't care about.
"I don't see why I need this," Rowena furrowed her eyebrows at me.
"You will, eventually," she replied. "Just, remember what I said. When the moment's right, you'll know."
I shrugged, "Alright."
That night, Jack and I were in the Dean Cave, which he had allowed us to use for a movie night... mostly because I had guilted him into it.
I was laying my head on Jack's shoulder, holding their hand in both of mine. I was trying to focus on the movie but all I could think about was what Rowena had told me.
I bit my lip for a moment before giving myself a bit of a silent pep talk. Rowena may not always be the most trustworthy on hunts but she wouldn't give me advice just in the hopes of me embarrassing myself.
With a small sigh, I turned to look at Jack. I leaned up and kissed the spot under their ear. It was soft and pretty quick but when they didn't respond, I placed another kiss in the same spot. The second was longer.
"That tickles," Jack scrunched their neck, laughing at my actions. I pulled back and just looked at them for a minute.
That's not what Rowena said would happen.
I just smiled back at them.
I waited for them to stop laughing before I touched their jaw. I turned them so they would look at me. They grinned at me.
I leaned up and kissed their lips softly. They were just as gentle. That alone made shivers go up my spine.
Now, I'm not perfectly sure what happened.
Rowena said to softly bite their lower lip. So, I did.
Now, I don't know if I bit too hard or if I just caught Jack off guard. All of the sudden, I was shoved backward and ended up on the ground next to the couch.
"Ow," Jack said, reaching up and touching their lip.
"Jack, I'm sorry," I stood up and sat next to them. "You're not bleeding are you?"
They shook their head, "Why'd you bite me?"
"I... I took some stupid relationship advice from Rowena," I put my head in my hands. "God, it was stupid. Beyond stupid. I don't know why I even listened to her."
"Why did you need advice," Jack tilted their head. "Was I doing something wrong?"
"No, not at all," I shook my head, reaching out to grab their hand. "It was her idea. She wanted to help us 'progress' to the next step."
I put "progress" in the air quotes.
"Like I said, it was stupid," I added.
"Do you think we need to progress," Jack asked.
"Honestly... no," I said. "I thought we were supposed to at some point but... I never think about that with you. I never see the point."
"I'm happy where we are," they mumbled. I smiled.
"Then can we forget that all of that happened?"
Jack nodded. I looked down at our hands and smiled. I was much happier pushing Rowena's advice out of my head. I pulled his hand up and kissed their knuckles softly.
"Can we get back to the movies," they asked quietly. I nodded.
We relaxed back into the same position as before. I soon found myself falling asleep against their shoulder.
--Next Day--
"(Y/n)," Rowena cheered when I walked into the library the next day. "Good morning. Did my advice work?"
"Nope," I smirked, hopping up to sit on the edge of the table.
"What?"
"And Jack and I don't need it," I added. "We don't need to go to that level for us to be intimate and happy."
"Oh," Rowena furrowed her eyebrows. I stood up and hugged her.
"I appreciate your help, I really do," I promised. "Thank you for your advice."
"You're welcome, dear," she mumbled, stepping back. "If either of you changes your minds-"
"Stop," I yelled, going past her and to the kitchen.
"I'm just mentioning-"
"And I'm rejecting!"
"What's going on," Dean asked, walking into the map room.
"Rowena's trying to convince me to have sex with Jack!"
"I am not!"
"Rowena," Dean threatened.
"Don't you start," she groaned.
I snuck into the kitchen, happily going to grab breakfast while listening to the impending argument between the leader of the Mega Coven and the man who was seen as one of the best hunters ever.

Please take some time to read this post.
My fellow Tumblr users in the Luca fandom, I need your help. I have a fanfiction author friend of mine who is going through some hard times.
And that Fanfiction author is this one right here:
Might seem boring at first glance, but trust me, her stories are AMAZING! And her Luca fic, A Sea Dog's Tale, has some pretty impressive rankings, but not very good in terms of comments.
She specifically asked me to request for ANYONE to take at least fifteen minutes of their day to comment and vote on her story. It would bring her much joy.
And for those of you who don't have access to Wattpad, I will post the first chapter under the cut. And I will ask you to note this post if you liked the chapter! It's called "The Ballad Of An Italian Street Dog."
Again, I would very much appreciate it if you'd take some time out of your day to read this. On here, or on Wattpad.
This story is also on Fanfiction.net and A03.
A Water Dog originating from Spain
Is in no way, shape, or form vain.
While exploring the country he resides in
He happily and politely takes what the town provides him.
Misunderstood for eating sea monsters his entire life
For him, befriending one gives him nothing but strife.
After living three years of living in solitude
He finally befriends not one, but two
And is given a new aptitude.
Italian-to-English translations are in parentheses.

It's a quiet morning in Portorosso, Italy. Birds are singing, people chatting among themselves, waves crashing against the shore...
And... Dogs are singing?
Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro... Figaro...Figaro... Figaro!
Figaro! Son qua. Ehi, Figaro! Son qua.
Figaro qua, Figaro la, Figaro qua, Figaro la, Figaro su, Figaro giu, Figaro su, Figaro giu.
Pronto prontissimo son come il fumine: sono il factotum della citta. (della citta, della citta, della citta, della citta)
One building away, a large, gray, and now ornery Cane Corso rose to greet the morning sun. And it wouldn't be that way if not for whoever's uproarious singing was coming from.
Turning the corner, the large dog came across a trash can... With two black legs, hind legs by the looks of them, with white paws, sticking out. The lid was barely open. Whoever was singing in there, not only did the trash can amplify the noise, it woke him from the depths of sleep.
Ah, bravo Figaro! Bravo, bravissimo; Ah, bravo Figaro! Bravo, bravissimo; a te fortuna a te fortuna, a te fortuna non manchera.
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
A te fortuna a te fortuna, a te fortuna non manchera.
"I bet I know who it is." The dog said in its guttural voice. As the animal in the trash can continued singing, the dog materialized a stone, getting ready to throw it.
Sono il factotum della citta, Sono il factotum della citta,
Della citta,
Della citta,
Della citta~!!!
Negligent whether or not the animal finished its impressive but loud singing voice, the Cane Corso threw the glass bottle. It made a loud and startling noise upon contact. The hind paws disappeared. And a speaking voice rang out.
"Ah! Cos'è stato (What was that)?" Something popped out of the trash can. The animal in the trash can, he was mostly black in fur color, but his chest, paws, chin, and belly were white.
He is incredibly handsome... And also incredibly misunderstood. Like the American Pitbull.
You're probably wondering, how do I know so much about this dog?
I'll tell you why.
THAT dog... Is me.
My name is Galileo. Like that astronomer Galileo Galilei back in the sixteen hundreds that discovered Earth's Orbit, the solar system, and how the planets don't revolve around Earth.
It's a pleasure to meet you. We don't usually get new people around these parts.
I am a Spanish Water Dog, a herding and waterfowl retriever. I take pride in being THE fastest swimmer, and fastest swimming dog, in Portorosso. Life's okay most of the time, as a homeless street dog. The food supply sucks sometimes, but the water supply is in the best condition.
You're probably wondering why I described myself as misunderstood, right? Admit it, you're asking yourself now. Why am I considered misunderstood?
Well, I am rumored to have eaten, get this, SEA MONSTERS, my whole life. Pretty weird, right? And just because, making friends with one... All the ones I tried to meet, they have REALLY BAD trust issues.
Portorosso prides itself in hunting and killing them. Honestly, I'm not sure why. They seem pretty decent to me.
Course, I'm not gonna tell you the story just yet. We've just met! First I gotta deal with the idioto that decided to wake me up.
Lifting the lid off my head, I saw an angry-looking gray Cane Corso. They're HUGE! This one looks like it eats twice its body weight every day, and looks as healthy as me.
And that's saying something, because coming from someone who either eats out of the garbage, or begs for food, I have the best diet in the world.
Anyway, enough about me for now.
"Can I help you?" I asked the large dog. "Yes, actually. Your singing woke me up!" He barked. "And I don't like being woken up!"
"Well, unlike you, I don't scare other dogs half to death by banging on something." I retorted, tilting the trash can so I could slip out. I regretted it. He's even bigger up close and on the ground...
"Heh. Typical medium dogs. Talks a big game, loses in a fight within the first minute."
"It's early in the morning. I'm not in the mood for a fight." I said, going to walk away. But the bigger dog decided to get in front of me. "Ah, but I am, cagnolino (puppy)."
"No. I'm in the mood for something to eat."
The Cane Corso smirked in the general direction of the harbor, just in front of the fountain. "How's about you do a little hunting with me? Surely I can find a nice sea monster for you."
"Uh, no thanks, Signor Corso. I'd rather—" I got cut off by the bigger dog. "Signor Corso?" Then he burst out laughing. "You don't know who I am, do you?"
"I can't say that I do."
The Cane Corso turned his head and stared down at me with a smirk. "Then allow this legend to introduce himself. I am Socrates, the most well-known canine in Portorosso. Named after the Greek philosopher, I take pride in having brute strength, only the best hunting and tracking skills, and above all, the best master of them all."
The last bit is up for debate, because I've run into people who threw glass bottles, stones, and even ceramics at me. And they all owned a dog with a better status than me.
"What is your name, cagnolino?"
"I'm Galileo. Like the astronomer."
"Ah, piacere di conoscerti (Nice to meet you), Galileo. It's a delight to meet a street dog with such little social status, unlike myself."
"Oh, grazie, Socrates... Wait, what?" I asked. Did he just nonchalantly insult me?
"I think you heard me." Socrates said, his friendly grin turning into an irritated frown. I shook my head with a confused grin. "Ugh, why am I even talking to you? I am a famous icon around here. I haven't the time to blab with scrubs like you."
I looked and felt disrespected. How dare he? "You know, for someone so big and so popular, you're kind of jerkish." I snapped. He turned around with a sharp glare.
He struck me down with one paw to my head, knocking me to the ground. "You got that right, I'm a jerk. Everyone in Portorosso knows it. So let me leave you here, injured without batting an eye, with a warning. First of all, this town here, belongs to my master. Second, he wouldn't want a wuss like you in it. And neither do I."
"I'm not a wuss. I'm a pacifist." I said, standing up. Irritated, Socrates barked loud enough to alert the rest of the block. Just getting a glimpse of his sharp front teeth made me back away with a yelp. Socrates chuckled, non-verbally saying 'that's what I thought.'
Growling at my show of weakness, I stood up. "Next time I see you here, you won't leave scot-free. You've been warned. And you will only be warned ONCE." Socrates said, before turning around to leave.
I kinda want to know who this guy's owner is. Just so I can tell him how much of a jerk he was to A SMALLER DOG.
I huffed with a roll of my eyes. I don't wanna run into THAT guy again. Well, looks like it's foraging.
Or... OR...
Maybe a little hunting in the ocean wouldn't hurt anyone.
I have to sneak to get to the water. Why? Because I get sick of children seeing me and urging to pet me, telling me I'm cute, or that I'm a good boy, and all that.
I don't always enjoy the compliments. Children younger than ten, in my anecdotes, are too energetic for me. I have preferences, even though I'm a street dog.
As I check my reflection in the water, I dunked my paw into it. It turned a bright teal. And the black fur on my leg turned yellow.
Why this happens when I get wet? I'll tell you now, I'm not (entirely) a sea monster. On that note, I don't even know why they're called 'monsters.' They look more like bipedal aquatic lizards to me.
Remember when I said I was misunderstood for eating sea monsters my entire life?
That rumor is a far cry from the truth.
I only resorted to eating a sea monster on ONE occasion. Two years ago. As a desperate survival instinct. I ate one single sea monster.
His name was Giovanni, and he was already fatally injured by a harpoon. He specifically told me to put him out of his... His misery and... and... I did so and consumed him.
I would have dropped dead in a couple of days or less without that nourishment. I was starving to death. Literally. Do you judge me for that?
A week later, my fur changed color when I was wet. The news of my kill then spread like wildfire. And so, when I swim off into the ocean, I can overhear people saying 'he's off to save us from those wretched sea monsters,' and stuff like that. It's getting old.
In conclusion, the rumor was born, and it has lasted up until this very day.
I've also gotten more webbing between my toes, much sharper teeth, and I'd say about 2.3% higher swimming speed.
So help me, Neptune, I better not have more changes in my physical appearance within the next few days. I just got the sharp teeth yesterday. Now I can leave a gigantic teeth mark on a rock.
I am a predator sea monster/dog.
I'm known as predatory down here, but, they don't bother me, so I don't bother them. And they rarely bother me. Because, they're scared of me. Like I want them to. *sigh*
But NOW I'm wondering; if I was born a regular dog and gained sea monster attributes, does that make me a sea monster or the same old dog?
Or I could just call myself a sea dog.
When I'm down here, I pretty much eat what I want. I have the guilty pleasure to steal someone's livestock, such as goatfish, when they're not looking, swim far enough away, then eat it. One could call me a lone wolf.
I don't do it as much anymore, but I can't eat kelp or seagrass every time I come down here. So, at rare occasions, I go to the deep for some of the best tasting meat I've tasted...
Whale carcass!
I know what you're thinking, but believe me, it tastes better than it sounds. It is PACKED with protein and nutritional value. If there's nothing else I feel like eating, I go there.
Hopefully without bumping into this giant anglerfish that creeps me out to high heaven. He never gave me his name... He's usually rambling on about how great life is down there. And I care more about my empty stomach than having a full-blown conversation with that guy, so when he does try to talk to me, I don't always pay attention.
Until he mentions whale carcass.
There's not a ton of oxygen that deep down, anyway, so I'm quick to eat until I'm satisfied, then leave before I start suffocating.
And here I am rambling about my ocean life, when I just found a nice sea cucumber!
No, wait, two! Three! Just sitting there on the rock! Four upon closer inspection!
Oh, Galileo, this is the best part of your cruddy morning!
Licking my chops, I made a beeline for the sea cucumber infested rock and started eating. Oh my... I lied before. Sea cucumbers taste great. They supply me with enough energy to take on the day.
I haven't had these in so long...
.............
You know what I sometimes do at night when everyone's finally asleep?
I check on some of the sea monsters, making sure they're okay, even though I overhear comments like 'the ferocious Galileo is stalking his prey.'
I ignore those comments. They're merely the wind beneath my wings. They only lift me higher!
When I'm patrolling in the ocean at night, not much goes on... But what was about to happen tonight is gonna be big, I can feel it in my fur!
Anyway, it started when I saw a boat, with two fishermen conversing. Something about sea monsters being stories, I wasn't paying attention.
After hearing operatic music, I started lulling me to sleep, but before my eyes involuntarily closed, I saw a hand grab a few things from the boat. All I saw was a wrench, a cup, and I think a playing card. I was only a few feet away from the boat, so I couldn't really tell.
My newly gained night vision is at its best underwater. I decided to go under and get a closer look. I heard one of the fishermen shout, then I saw what I wasn't expecting.
A sea monster.
My eyesight, now enhanced, but still blurry, I could only see slit green eyes within a black silhouette. A black silhouette, that got caught in a net. I gasped. It grunted as it tried to escape, but it only got more tangled. Whether it's scared of me or not, I'm helping him! And I know exactly how.
I paddled towards the animal in the net. "Don't move. I'll make this quick." I told him, then I bit at the net, cutting it off with one bite. Then, getting to the holes, a small prick from my teeth cuts it, and within seconds the sea monster is freed. It jumped in the air, then back in the water. I went to follow him, but I stopped when a harpoon sailed through the water and slashed its arm. I winced as it let out a small pained cry.
I have ZERO good experiences with harpoons. Oftentimes even I am mistaken for a sea monster, the humans unaware of what I am. I've been hit with harpoons enough times. How many? I lost count. A lot. But I'm lucky.
The only place I haven't been struck by a harpoon is my chest. And my neck. Clearly my neck. I'd be dead if I got struck in the neck. Humans can have impeccable aim with those things.
Also, and I'm only gonna tell you once: I have an immense fear of harpoons. Always have. Or just sharp objects in general. Hate 'em, hate 'em, stay away from 'em. That's my motto. Don't get me started on knives.
Again, regardless on whether it's afraid of me or not...
"Are you okay?" I asked it. He didn't answer at first. He just held his arm in pain. I'll take that as a no. "Okay, let's get you on land, and I can fix that for you."
The sea monster, finally, spoke a word. "Okay."
Side by side, we swam to the shore of the island. "Okay, let me see it." I told him, reaching for his arm. "Don't touch it!" His voice was in the baritone vocal range.
"I'm not gonna touch it, I just wanna look." I gently took his arm and inspected the cut. He sucked in air through his teeth. The wound was bleeding a bit, but it wasn't deep, so fixing it up won't be a problem.
"Okay, I know what to do, but you're gonna have to trust me." I told him. "Do you trust me?"
I didn't expect him to answer straight away (he didn't), since we just met and don't even know each other's names. He answered me with a nod. "Okay, stay right there, I'll be back in a flash."
I went back down underwater and searched for the closest patch of seaweed I could find. It doesn't have to be very long... Perfect. I found a foot long piece of kelp, pulled it off from the root, then surfaced back to the island.
"Okay, I'm gonna try to clean that wound out. You can hold my paw if you need to. Kay?"
He nodded.
I sucked in water into my mouth, then held it in until I got to his arm again. He took a hold of my paw if it hurt. I squirted the water out on the wound. He only squeezed my paw a bit, moaning in pain. Once my mouth was emptied of water, I wrapped the piece of kelp around the cut and tied a knot.
I made sure it was tight, but not too tight. I don't have any real bandages on me, so this is gonna have to do.
"Alright, that should do it. Leave that on overnight and see if it's still bleeding in the morning." I told him. This was my attempt at first aid, despite never performing it before.
"Okay." He said.
"Do you need me to stay with you for tonight?"
"No, I'll be okay."
"Alright, then." I turned to the water, ready to call it a night. "Hey, wait!" I turned to the sea monster one more time. He smiled at me, "Thank you." I smiled back. "You're welcome."
That felt good. He trusted me... Which is weird, because I don't remember seeing him ONCE. Could I have non-verbally made my first sea monster friend?
Perhaps...
But, its late, I better get to sleep. The thing is, I'm a little too tired to swim back to town. Last time I tried swimming while tired, I drifted into the ocean, and it took me an hour to find the town again.
Why not... Sleep in the ocean for a change? When I come here to vent, the tranquillity usually helps. Actually, I've slept in the ocean before. It was AMAZING. The seagrass fields are the most comfortable. Best part is, they hide you from predators.
So that's what I did. I decided to sleep on the ocean floor. I walked in a circle before laying down. I was instantly feeling more tired. I laid my head down and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Awaiting what tomorrow has to offer.
So... That's the end of this chapter. What do you think of Galileo? What do you think of Socrates?
I felt like putting the "Alberto getting hit in the arm by the harpoons in the beginning" concept in here, and having Galileo help the guy out. Whether he wanted his help or not...
I think we can all agree that he's a very good boy.
Next chapter, Galileo meets our other protagonist.

Actually hella do you have any fic recs where osamu and atsumus bond is really strong? kinda like in burden of blame? their sibling bond in that is so sweet and i want to read more of it bc i too love my siblings very much (i say as i argue with my sister about her getting crumbs on the carpet) and i read 4 Years by lettersinpetals recently and if you've read that you know exactly why I'm looking for those specific fics
oh i have in fact read that and know exactly why you're looking for those specific fics. ive managed to retain my love of osamu but i actually struggle with kita solely bc of that fic and it ENRAGES me bc he's literally lovely and im just here like shut up shut up you're nothing
I GOT YOU LET'S GET INTO IT
how to scare away your brother's boyfriend: a tutorial by miya osamu by matchumu - PROTECTIVE OSAMU LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this is just a cute short thing but it has fantastic suna being a miya-whisperer content, fantastic loved-up sakusa content, fantastic oblivious atsumu content, and of course, the creme de la creme, fantastic overprotective osamu content. the shovel talk of shovel talks
it's a twin thing by internetpistol - this is a purely miya twin fic with background sakuatsu and sunaosa. it's actually not a fun fic per say bc it's a whole 'prank gone seriously seriously wrong' type of thing but it IS heartwarming and i just absolutely adore the love and faith the twins have in each other
the 'this love isn't crazy' series by lettersinpetals - (ironically also the author of four years lmao). i love this series so much it's such a feel good read and i love kiyoomi's characterisation just bc i think we can do nothing as a society but gain from having sakusa kiyoomi be a high maintenance bitch. there's some particularly good miya twins in the fourth part of the series but honestly the whole thing is golden. it's about sakuatsu falling in love but it's done via MSBY vlogging the whole thing
a liar's truth by internetpistol - (this is one of the 'carries sakuatsu nation' authors so honestly just check out their stuff, same as lettersinpetals). this fic a classic and is handled so beautifully. i said last time that i usually avoid fics that look like they're just gonna be smut but i took a chance on this one just bc id heard so much about it and i dont regret a thing. it IS rated explicit for a reason but if you do read it then just the handling of sakusa's internalised homophobia is so gorgeous and painfully raw, and it really fucking got to me lmao. but you asked for miya twins so im here to deliver bc this fic gives us ALL of the miyas being lovely and supportive. osamu is constantly there for atsumu in this particularly near the end and i just love them <3. if you dont know, then this fic basically tackles sakusa falling head over heels for atusmu and spending ages just firmly in denial, and the challenges they go through as a result. it's heavy at times but it's a happy ending dw
three roses and a smile by strawberrycitrus - uni professor's au! and they hate each other! i might just be a bitch but i kinda thought that either atsumu was way too nice or sakusa was way too mean in this (if he'd said half of that shit to me i would have battered him university regulations be damned) BUT it's still a really cute 20k one-shot and the miya twins are so funny together off the bat. i just absolutely adore the mental imagery of MIYA OSAMU telling SAKUSA KIYOOMI to fuck off just bc he upset his brother. like. it's poetry in motion actually
play among the stars by buttonstuck - i recced this last time and i'd like to be clear it's not technically miya twin content in that osamu is actually hardly in it, but without spoiling it i'll just say atsumu cares about him so so much and it means the world to me. also it's just a really good fic
