Ohh I love the blacksmith yuta and alchemist reader! What if a knight or a noble nct member tries to steal reader's attention?

Part One

***

Wiping the sweat off his brow, Yuta is nearly finished sharpening a newly forged battle-axe he's been working on for the past two days. Just as he's about to return to work, he hears an all too familiar voice right outside his workshop.

Normally, hearing your voice would bring a smile to his face, if not for the words you speak.

"I've already told you," you push the door open to Yuta's shop, being followed closely by another, "I will not become the military's bitch."

"And I've already told you," the man counters, "you wouldn't have to serve under anyone else but me. You'd be useful, and you're strong. I still don't understand why, you're wasting your talents."

A scowl takes over Yuta's features as he watches the man stand close to you. A man Yuta has never like for one second, given how close he seemingly wants to become with you. Unfortunately, due to his rank, Yuta cannot say anything.

"Colonel Kim," you sigh, turning to face the man who now wears a tight lipped expression, "I'd rather be in control of my own life and decisions, not have someone else decide those for me."

"I thought I told you to call me Doyoung," comes his blunt reply, but you couldn't care less.

Immediately, you turn around to face Yuta, rolling your eyes for emphasis as you tilt your head ever so slightly to motion to the Colonel now standing behind you with his arms crossed in front of his chest. Yuta would have cracked a smile, if not for the situation. He knows exactly what game Doyoung is playing here, and he wants nothing more than for the Colonel to lose.

"Now, if you'll excuse me, Colonel," you make sure to put extra emphasis on his title, knowing how much it will irritate him. He's been trying (and failing) to get you to call him by his first name ever since you met all those months ago. "I have business to attend to. So, unless you too need services with my trusted friend Yuta here," you shoot Doyoung a look from over your shoulder, "leave."

Doyoung scowls, clicking his tongue at your words. Turning towards the door, he stops just before he's able to pass through the entranceway, bringing a hand up to grasp the frame as he mirrors your stance, looking over his shouldering last time to shoot you a final look. "Fine. Just make sure to think about my offer. Both of them."

With that, he's gone, the door to Yuta's shop swinging shut.

"Thank fuck," you sigh in relief, "I thought he would never leave."

Yuta narrows his eyes ever so slightly, "what was that all about?"

"Oh, that?" You snort. "He's been trying to recruit me to become a state alchemist ever since I arrived in the city."

"I know that much," Yuta leans against the counter. "I meant, what is his other offer?"

"Ah," you draw out the word, realization crossing your features as you notice how tense Yuta seems to be. Almost as if he's... "jealous?"

"Of the Colonel?" Yuta scoffs. "Please. You couldn't pay me enough to want whatever he may have."

Quirking a brow, you decide to test that theory, given everything you've deduced of him, "even if he had me?"

Yuta blinks, clearly stunned by your words, "I thought you weren't joining the military?"

"Believe me, I'm not," you grin. "He's just offered me a place at his side in another sense, is all."

His eyes narrow, fear clawing at his chest, "what do you mean?"

"You're a smart man, I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out," you chuckle, though at the look Yuta sends you, you continue. "Essentially, he proposed."

"What?" Yuta asks, the shock clear on his features. He had an inkling that that was what happened, but hearing you say it out loud makes it all the more real. "What did you tell him?"

Yuta prays to whatever's out there that you laughed in that self-righteous, stuck up, asshole's face when he proposed to you.

"I didn't say no," you shrug, and Yuta swears his poor heart is being suffocated.

"So you'll agree to marrying him? Him of all people?" Yuta cannot hide the disgust in his voice, his nose scrunching as his lips turn downwards in a frown.

"Sure. He could offer me further protection with both his status and alchemic power, not that that really matters to me." You shrug once more. "I could make an exception, even if I don't trust him."

Yuta straightens, standing stiffly in front of you. Before he can stop himself, the words are blurting out of his mouth, "marry me instead."

"What?" This time, it's your turn to look surprised.

"Marry me instead," Yuta repeats, taking a step towards you and closing the distance between your two bodies as his one hand comes up to cup your cheek. "You said it yourself: you trust me. If that's all it takes, then I'll be more than happy to stand by your side, because I've always wanted you by mine."

"Yuta," the way you breathe his name sends a shiver down his spine, your eyes searching his own for any sign of hesitancy. You find none. The corner of your lips tug upwards, a smug expression pulling at your features. "I'll think about it."

Another cookie squad Headcanons

Featuring Sparkling, Vampire, cellphones and the Espresso and Madeleine Story of how they came together. Consider it an AU now baby!

-As a note, when I say the squad I'm mostly referring to the adults, so no worries about Walnut or Creampuff useless I mention them too

-Each one of the squad has been in Sparkling's bar at last once. There's no need to say who has been there the most. Sparkling has a time every time someone besides Roguefort comes, because to him it's mostly like "Oh I'll finally know the continuation to the burnt toast accident or maybe the cat catastrophe? Maybe a new POV of the--"

He practically knows a lot of what happens in between the squad.

-As another note, Sparkling's bar is called Milabo (You know, like the song from Zutomayo of the same name, which, btw, I relate a lot to Latte)

-*A great part of this “AU” is kind of inspired by the song. Part of its lyrics and vibe.

-Vampire is there most of the time when the squad visits the bar (it's almost as if he never leaves the bar and this is definitely not me low-key putting sparkvamp in this oh no--) Sometimes the fakes his sleep to listen to the things others say (Which is how he knows most of Rogue's pan-ic).

-Walnut has been in Sparkling's bar too, but at day and for case-solving purposes only. Sparkling will give her some alcohol-free drink for free sometimes (mostly because he gets along pretty well with the nut family and because Almond usually pays him whatever he serves her).

-If the squad had cellphones (and probably an app like discord because.), their group chat would initially be called "Coffee mage appreciation group" and then be changed to "Coffee bean appreciation group"

Coffee Bean: Can we please change the group name and mine?

Guided by the Devine: No <3

Coffee Bean: Fuck you.

-*And they all would dedicate half their time to make fun of Almond but with love.

-Espresso has been mistaken for a dark mage before by Almond. It was how they meet actually. Almond had pulled him to interrogate him and got a long lecture on the differences between black magic and coffee magic.

-Madeleine gets along rather well with Roguefort. Rogue seems impressed by Maddie’s acting skills.

-Madeleine is currently living with Espresso. Out of his armor most of the time. He usually takes care of keeping the house clean and preparing meals (He never really had to cook before but the first dish he made wasn’t bad at all). Sometimes he will tag along Almond in the detective’s work, or Almond will ask for his help.

-I’m still unsure if I want the Almond/Roguefort/Latte to be romantic or platonic. But honestly? Both are good. Latte is pretty close to Almond and Roguefort but not in the way she is with Espresso (that makes them look like siblings jkashduawhu). Perhaps I’ll keep it platonic.

-The Espresseleine/Madespresso story of how they came together, because I seem to not be able to write it down JSHALDHUIWADWA-

--It happens after the Puppet Show mini quest. Madeleine starts to ask for Espresso's "assistance" in different mission that are given to him. Angel is there too, of course.

--During these missions is that Essy clarifies that no, they are not friends, no, he does not like Madeleine. Bringing up the knight begin too prideful and self-centered if not all then most of the time.

--Is not until one of their missions goes wrong, were Angel is knocked out and Espresso (seeing and knowing that if Madeleine is knocked down too they might not be able to go back to the kingdom ever) pretty much receives a rather big attack for Madeleine is that he kind realizes the facts given by espresso true. All while he is carrying Essy and Angel back to the kingdom, running and exhausted too.

--Clover begin kind of a mediator between the two (I want to see more of my son--)

--"Devine, protect us" Should happen too after this. An scenario like, Madeleine coming to think something like "I'm the shield, the one who goes on the front line and receives the blows for those who can't, always looking straight ahead... but if I am doing that then who watches my back? Who do I rely on and trust to take care of most enemies so the damage received is not overwhelming...?"

Power of team work baby!!!

--As a note to this, Maddie getting his cape damaged as well as his hair. So, you get short hair Maddie~

(I've been drawing him with short hair in secret now I have an excuse to show)

-- "You...cut your hair..." *Madeleine touches the points of it with one of his hands, pensive* "...pft it'll grow back!"

--There's also this "Search for your own light" thing between Angel and Maddie. Angel encouraging Madeleine to do so. Maybe Madeleine giving his best wishes to them for their wish to fly before they decide to part ways.

--Madeleine trying other ways to befriend Essy. Which at first Espresso mistaken as the knight usual attempts to befriend anyone he sees out of habit and attention seeking, but once they realize the feeling is completely genuine, Espresso is rather perplexed.

--"You can't just befriend people by buying them gifts (although I do appreciate them)" "Then what?" "hmm..."

--Said gifts used to be rather expensive things, simple though. Eventually Madeleine settles to just pass by Espresso's place, give him any food he had bought that day (which usually is glazed donuts), ask if he needs any help with something (getting a vase, materials, moving things), and if not then he just says his good byes, best wishes and silently leaves. (A note on the "silently leaves": Madeleine is pretty much used to speak loudly and enter loudly anywhere, he still does this at this point, but when it's about Espresso he is a bit more quiet, a bit showy over his entrances still, but less loud, and he actually knocks the door)

--Madeleine eventually manages to go out with Espresso to other places that aren't some place in the forest full of enemies. Probably after some more visits to his place and more calm talks between the two, Madeleine brings up that Espresso tends to act a bit cold or distant towards a lot of people, and that, although he understands his discomfort at begin in public spaces or too long out of his work, he should try and open up a bit. This reminds Essy of a certain friend he hasn't seen in some time, and from whom he keeps getting letters.

--Shenanigans.

--There's still some bickering between the two, always with a playful undertone though.

--Espresso explains Madeleine, one time the knight has gotten Espresso wrapped in a blanket burrito again and got him to bed, that sometimes, no matter how tired he might feel, he is simply unable to sleep. Part of a headcanon of mine that coffee magic has this side effect on it's users, prolonged usage of this kind of magic will induce a high caffeine kind of state, which on the long run can fuck up the user's sleep schedule. Madeleine understands this, but remains stubborn about keeping Espresso in the bed so at last he can get some rest from his work and clear his mind a little, the idiot falls asleep in the process and Espresso doesn't try to wake him up.

--This happens several times after, neither of them thinking of the implications of not begin bothered by the sudden closeness they share until it's too late.

--Espresso realizes first that he has slowly, yet nicely, fallen for Madeleine. I think I talked about this before but I'll do it again: Is in one of the times Madeleine has gotten Espresso to bed to get some rest, Espresso not begin able to fall asleep and Madeleine doing again. Is while he thinks of how he has gotten to know Madeleine for real, not the Knight Commander from a noble family or the Chosen by the Devine, but as he is, that he comes to think that "Ah.... I love him" and he remains calm about it.

--Espresso doesn't overthink it, just thinks that, if Madeleine ever got an interest in him, he would surely show it. So he waits. Even if in the end his feelings aren't mutual he knows he'll do just fine remaining friends.

--Madeleine realizes not many days after. And the realization hits him like a truck. Alone in his place and probably in bed looking at the ceiling thinking about Espresso. Once he realizes and thinks about it a bit more his face gets all red and chooses to scream in the pillow.

--He would think about telling Espresso as soon as he can, after all, he doesn't want his feelings to make their friendship weird. He values it, a lot. Maybe because his friendship with Espresso it's the first one where he genuinely wanted to become friends with someone.

--Espresso takes the confession calmly, gets all flustered after they kiss for the first time.

--As a few extras of this: Madeleine goes back to the Republic, asked to be seen by his family and Espresso goes to Parfedia, where a few students have applied to his class to his surprise. When they see each other again is at Parfedia (Madeleine sending a message to Espresso beforehand about his arrival) -there was this one drawing I did once of Maddie running to hug Espresso, something like that happens-. Madeleine gets very clingy for some reason, which they speak later and comes out as “Home doesn’t quite feel like home…” “Why is that?” “I don’t know… maybe I’ve become used to be around you”

--Espresso lets ends up letting Madeleine stay with him until he either feels like returning to the Republic or is called back, whatever happens first (though none will happen for maybe a year or a little more).

--Ends with Madeleine meeting Latte and Almond.

Chapter 10. A Trip to the City

It has been awhile sense Munchkin and Yuka left for the kingdom knowingly Kratos was still being tended to by Nova while Aless and Yuna went off hunting for food leaving the two alone for buying ingredients

Munchkin: Mr. fluffakins can't go on forever!! How close are weeee

Yuka: we are almost there now will you stop asking dear..??

Munchkin: I've asked once!!

Yuka: you said that the last five times

Munchkin: oh..sorry hehe...

Munchkin could feel that evil being following them as if it will never leave his side tormenting him in the back of his mind

Yuka: see here we are!

Munchkin: about time!!

They would pull into the kingdom as Yuka dismounts and ties her warhorse to the post by the gates, before finally making her way inside walking with Munchkin at her side

Yuka: alright I have just enough for the ingredients anddd

Yuka would pull out a bag of gold handing it to

Munchkin

Yuka: a enough for you to get a few things but don't go overboard ok kiddo??

Munchkin: I- yes ma'am...

She smiled and watches munchkin run off before walking into the brewers shop exhaling immediately people started to speak on her making very rude and sexual remarks to her after all she is a elf..why wouldn't they right??

Knight: oi pretty lady why not come over here and take a seat in my lap~

Yuka rolls hers eyes grunting from disgust she hated how people reacted when they saw a elf like her smaller and more well "easy" looking, she would

Make her way to the counter and look at the man behind it

Brewer: hm..what do you need elf??

Yuka sighed and pulls out a list of items handing it to him

Yuka: at least two of each..I would enjoy if you could try and hurry..

Brewer: understandable..I'll go check the back

Yuka would sigh and lean against a pillar waiting for him only for one of the men to pin her against the pillar

Sliver Knight: well now what do we have here~

Yuka: I could say the same to you..

Sliver knight: exactly you shouldn't be in this area elves tend to get taken around here and no one really cares to try and help them..?? I do-

Yuka: and it seems humans die a lot around here. So let's not push this

The knight laughs at her before locking eyes with her

Sliver knight: you think your funny or something???

Yuka: only if you want me to honey..

She mocks him and his pointless attempts to make a move on her

Sliver knight: shame your all alone in this shop?? No one to really stop me~?

Silence overcame the shop as she stares at him with a murderous glare hating humans like this who act all high and mighty only to be brought down almost instantly

Yuka: all you humans are the same cocky and greedy??

Sliver: excuse me!?! Who the whole do you think you are!?!

Yuka: I'm just a traveler?? Who's fighting for her own causes??

The knight growls and went to draw his blade only to find it was missing Yuka then giggled holding it up

Yuka: looking for this??

She smiled and snaps her fingers watching the sword melt into nothing the knight growling at and starts to raise his hand to punch her only for a arm to stop him

Aless: you should be more kind to the princesses helpers.

Knight: princess aless!?! I-I'm sorry I didn't ev-

Aless: don't worry about what I'm gonna do~

Yuka looked at aless confused why she was here but smiled relived that it was over with Yuka turns to the brewer and smiled at him paying for the ingredients she would walk out with aless and smile at her only to see munchkin hasn't returned to the gates she sighs and wanders the city looking for him wondering were he could have ended up and sure enough he was found hiding in the graveyard..

Yuka: come on kid..we should go..unless you didn't buy anything..

Munchkin: I did..but them..

Yuka turns to a group of men and sighs grabing munchkin and lifting him up into her chest pulling his face close to her chest

Munchkin: h-hey! Let meh go!!

Yuka: you shouldn't be so worried about everything..I'm not gonna let anything hurt you kid..

Munchkin blushes and got quite immediately not speaking on the subject just laying against her chest soon enough they would return to the gates and she would set him down

Yuka: we should head back now..don't wanna be out here when it's too dark..best to be by a open flame...

She mounts up along with Munchkin making their way back the trip back felt much longer than they thought

Yuka: is it just me or is it really hot out..??

Munchkin: yes...and it's pretty dark out as well...

Yuka would stay close to munchkin only to see them ride pass a temple she would stop to stare at it seeing tracks leading inside tracks of a demon Imp multiple pairs of tracks

Yuka: just as I thought..a horde is nearby the camp...

Munchkin: hey you coming!!!

Yuka: yeah on my way!!

She felt very uneasy seeing those tracks knowing for a fact that meant something real bad could happen if the horde wanted to attack them and they could easily be outnumbered

Yuka: we are gonna have to take that temple down..and those within..

Munchkin: that would be impossible if you do think that a horde is nearby then they most likely have that place trapped

Voidless: indeed...good thinking host...

Yuka: yes your right..but that would mean that something else would be leading them...after all..Imps are not that smart unless someone were to teach them that..much like goblins and gremlins tho gremlins are great workers for machines and such..

Voidless: I like this girl? Who is she huh? Your friend? Lover? Ooooo plaything!?!

Munchkin looked away from Void avoiding all it was saying to him

They would soon pull up to the camp Yuka immediately working on potions for Kratos, meanwhile inside his tent Nova was sleeping up against the tent she hadn't left his side this entire time...But there was far worse to follow was nearby as a group of imps watch the camp before returning to their own fortress of a temple running down to the lower levels to speak to their leader

Imp: yes my lord they are aware we are here but not you.

???: good...keep it that way if they try to attack. Do not fail. If you do. Oh well. More murder and playtime for me...ha...ha...

End of Chapter 10.
