#it's honestly only because he holds himself higher but i also just think it'd be fun if he DID grow taller by coincidence
Note
hihihi! so many interesting options to choose from ah! let’s go withhh 5. Future Dreams!! (for wip wed!) -@a-little-unsteddie 🌼
thank you ο(=•ω<=)ρ⌒☆ and an excellent choice!!! for context, the idea is that steve gets weird dreams where he'd see himself - an older self. he gets short convos with Future Steve who would always give his past-self advice or names of people to look out for (both positive or negative). most of the time, the dreams happened whenever something big happened to Steve. this whole au stemmed from me wanting Steve in the Scoops uniform to somehow meet Steve in the battle vest because they have such different energies and now we have this (~ ̄▽ ̄)~ below is the dream he gets right before all the upside down shit goes down:
It took some time, but it got easier to see himself from the outside when it meant he had someone to guide him, even if it was only ever himself.
But this?
This version of Steve is bloodied, bruised and has a mangled baseball bat in his hand that's so caked in violence, he feels queasy in his dreams for very first time.
"You're gonna wanna run." He says in a steely voice. Steve straightens his back, ignoring the echo of his father's disappointed tone. This is different, he thinks. "Hell, you're gonna run. But you stop. You stop halfway and when you do," his future self grits his teeth and steps closer into his space, poking his shoulder. Steve idly notices he must have had some kind of growth spurt after stopping halfway. "You turn around. You fucking run back and stick around, do you understand me?"
Steve swallows and nods, unable to ignore the ghost of his father's everything that shadows his future, who's expression turns stricken. Maybe he noticed it too.
And then Steve is running from the Byers' house and he's right there, the car is right there but he looks back.
He sticks around.
and also a bonus part because i loved this au when i first wrote it, here is post-starcourt steve dreaming of season 4 steve:
"You look like shit."
Steve chuckles, not bothering to lift his head up. God, this is his whole life, isn't it? Warnings and forethought but not smart enough fucking thoughts -
"Hey -" Future Steve says sharply. Steve flinches, his head throbs completely in sync with the thumps of the landscape around them. "Look up, dingus."
It takes some effort and extra breathing but eventually he does. And...
"We're okay." Future Steve says softly, one hand dragging up and down the other arm. That's such a comfortable looking sweater. And he likes yellow. He really likes yellow, Steve decides. "We make it out okay."
"How many times do we have to make it out, man?" Steve coughs. At least he's not in the sailor uniform at this point. Considering that Scoops has burned down, there isn't much point in having it but he still keeps it tucked away in his closet. For the memories. The good ones. "Starting to get tired of all the..." He waves his hand and hopes Future Steve gets it because fuck, this sucks.
There's no answer. And Steve knows they're not even close to being tired yet.

Okay so I'm just spitballing here for a sec but
I was listening to In the Dark of the Night from Anastasia and it got me thinking about a scenario where the reader is some kind of magical entity, born with powers or gifted them, either way, Bowser wants you. His initial plan being to kill you and steal your magic. And of course you're used to being chased by others but Bowser is just beyond terrifying.
Something something he can't bring himself to kill you and come to find out from Kamek later he's trapped under some kind of curse that's forcing him to crave ultimate power. And then you get to help break it.
Music truly does the best for my creativity cause now I'm imagining Bowser singing In the Dark of the Night with his soldiers as the backup singers-
Something about "In the dark of the night she'll (they'll) be mine" get my gears turning.
Oh my gosh wait because I can build on top of that!
So, not only is Reader wanted by Bowser, but there's an even larger power above them. Kinda like Hawkmoth and all the villains he makes just to get the miraculous. Just an evil power that's kind of on the same plane of existence as Reader that - where Reader spreads good - they spread evil and Bowser just gets caught in the crossfire of it all. Well, less crossfire and more like the entity sees Bowser as a good source of negative energy and kinda uses him to spread fear and stuff.
And then news of Reader reach Bowser and his craving for power kinda gets worse. He himself seeks them out and gets more desperate with every passing day.
And just imagine Bowser and Reader trapped somewhere where they need to work together, but Reader is just terrified and Bowser is still trying to capture them, but in that moment he also has this small moment of clarity. Where he knows there's something above him. Like Garmadon from Lego Ninjago being evil not because he wanted to be but because of that snake venom coursing through him. (Dragging all the fandoms into this post).
So it's kind of an uphill battle for both Reader and Bowser as they try and break Bowser from the hold of this higher evil whilst at the same time Reader needs to avoid Bowser's tyranny and thirst for power.
And for the sake of it - you mentioned "In The Dark of the Night" and my mind went to straight to Jonathan Young's cover of it. That much more metal theme to it that would fit Bowser so well. Then again, I'm also biased towards his covers since they're all rock and metal covers of songs.
Oh, and quotes like 'Come my minions fly for your Master, let your evil shine' could be both Bowser and whatever is making him evil kinda echo through.
'My curse made each of them pay'
And if you wanna overlay songs, once again I'm gonna mention Jonathan Young's covers. His rendition of "Phantom of the Opera". It'd fit perfectly. Honestly. It has that clash of vocals almost, with Young having this deep and raspy voice, and then Reese has this typical opera, smooth voice. I'm totally not biased. Totally. Okay, I'm biased. It's the typical metal style. Drums and electric guitar and stuff that fits Bowser so well.
But yes! That's my input. I love this idea so much. Time to add it to my list of maladaptive daydreams to, well, daydream later.

Request: Bill S. Preston x Gender neutral!reader
Prompt: Reader is sitting in on a Wyld Stallyns practice while doing homework as an excuse to watch their boyfriend Bill perform. Everything is alright until they get a sensory overload from their difficult homework and the loud music.
Bill picks up on this and lends them his (oversized for y/n) plaid shirt because his scent grounds them (and maybe holds their hands while sitting in front of them, doing the 54321 method).
Basically Bill just being the most supportive boyfriend ever.
Summary: You and Bill are spending some quality time together, with you doing homework, and him practicing his guitar!
Warnings: Details of sensory overload
Words: 1.1K
Notes:  Honestly living for these oneshots rn I can't lie Decided to make it just you and Bill together, so more of the focus is on him, rather than him AND Ted! Hope this is okay! <3 My requests are currently open! My pinned post (found here) contains both a list of characters I write for, and a masterlist!  Original character list - please request for these too!
Tumblr media
Not my gif
The best time of the day was always the time when you got to go round Bill's house. There was no question about it. The place was a safe haven for you- Missy thought the world of you and Bill's dad liked you, when he was home from work and you were out of your boyfriend's room or the garage. It was a ritual for the pair of you, you'd finish school together, walk Ted home to his house just a street or so over from Bill's, then head back to the Preston house together for the evening. Sometimes Bill would ask you if you ever wanted to go to your house instead - you'd simply shake your head and keep on walking to his, not even missing a beat. It wasn't something that needed to be considered. Being around Bill, in a place that he spent so much time in himself, was just... Your idea of heaven.
So there you both were, Bill sitting cross legged on the old battered couch, and you on the floor across from him, Maths textbook on the table and workbook in your lap as you tried over and over again to solve a particularly difficult quadratic equation. Maths was an okay subject for you, but as you had moved on to the higher levels of the subject, the flow of your answers had staggered more and more; it was a welcome challenge, but naturally more frustrating at times. Bill's guitar lay in his lap, as he lazily plucked the strings from time to time, attempting to tune it. He'd been tuning it for the past hour or so - he wasn't fussed on it being done particularly quickly, and him taking his time meant that it'd be done with greater accuracy. It also meant that he wasn't disturbing you too much, which was something he was vaguely conscious of, in the back of his mind.
After a while longer of him tuning his guitar, Bill is almost certain he's got it right. There's only one real way to test it. Without warning, Bill started an epic little riff, not thinking about the noise he was making as his fingers danced across the strings and neck of the guitar, until one wrong pluck threw him from his little daydream induced riff. He looked over to you, hoping to get some feedback of his playing before he had thrown himself off of his groove, but you weren't looking back at him. You had curled in on yourself, hands clamp over your ears in a vain attempt to block some of the noise from your ears. Within a second, Bill had practically thrown his guitar away from him, and was kneeling down beside you. "Hey, hey..." He tried to get your attention, but you just frantically shook your head at him - you didn't want any more noise, you couldn't take anymore. Bill hastily untied the plaid shirt he had tied round his waist, and draped it round your shoulders. It was too warm for him to actually wear it properly, but he knew that when you were upset, in any way, that you loved wearing it, that it helped you. You move your hands to grab at the fabric, pulling it tighter over your shoulders, and bringing a fistful of it to your face as you normally did. As strange as it may seem to some, the scent of your boyfriend helped you immensely. It allowed you to pull yourself, piece by piece, breath by breath, out of the downward spiral the sudden noise had put you in. Bill stayed in front of you, resting his hands gently on your shoulders, ready to move at a moments notice should it become too much for you. He breathes audibly, slow and deep, making sure that you can hear him, and try to mimic him. You try to, though at first, there's a stray breath or two every so often, your diaphragm jerking in response to the sudden switch back to normal breathing. A few more minutes pass, before Bill tries to speak to you again. "You okay?" His voice is soft, and as gentle as his touch. He didn't mean to upset you - then again he never did, and typically went out of his way to ensure that you were never upset as much as he could. "I'm... I'm sorry about that, I didn't think..." He explained; he knew it wasn't an excuse, but he just wanted you to know. You nod slowly; it wasn't the first time that Bill had acted impulsively like that. It happened a lot - though typically it was something more like he'd throw something up in the air, or sometimes slam a book. You'd come to accept it as part of him; however his father thought differently, though he never commented as such. Usually it was worse if you were around Ted, too. The pair bounced off of one another like nobody's business; if one started something off, the other was sure to follow in his wake.
"You feeling a little better now?" Bill asks, finally sitting down properly in front of you, rather than just crouching. You nod again. "Uh, yeah... Just, the noise, mixed with the homework, it just... It got too much..." You gesture vaguely at your two books as you speak, and Bill nods gently in reply. "I'm sorry..." He pauses briefly, "You want some help with that?" He offers, and you chuckle lightly, "What?" He asks, almost incredulously, "I mean, two minds are better-" "I know, Bill..." You cut him off, "But we're both... y'know, not always great at math..." You shrug, "So I doubt both of us working on it would help...." "Huh..." Bill sits in thought for a moment, before nodding in acceptance of your explanation. Sometimes it was difficult for him to understand maths too - so his offer had mostly been out of him wanting to alleviate you some stress, because he never liked seeing you upset or stressed. "What if... We got ice cream instead?" He suggested, "We've got a ton in the freezer... We're never going to get through it all - Missy only has one every so often, and dad never has any..." He told you, and you nodded. "Yeah, actually... that sounds really nice... I'll try finish this equation, then I'll join you..." You lean forward, pressing a light kiss to his cheek. His face splits into a wide, goofy smile. "Get me a good one, yeah?" You call after him, as he hurriedly scrambles to his feet, and dashes off to get to the freezer. "I will!" He yells back - and you know that he'll stick to his word, he always did. He was, without a doubt, the best boyfriend you could ask for.

Another one because i love this boy and i don't know if it's clear or not but what about MC being terrified of water ( for idk what reason ) but who tries to beat it so they can go play in the water with cove too so the it's the first time they actually go swimming together.
╭( ๐_๐)╮ i have no idea if this sentence is correct
Anyway have fun regardless if you do or do not do it !
COVE WITH AN MC SCARED OF WATER
Tumblr media
gn!reader | ppl not good w water representation !!! (me) (it's me.) i think this can work for any cove past the step 1 memories because you know,,, the cast. i was picturing step 3 cove mostly though 🥹
Tumblr media
there's a few ways to go about this off the top of my head: mc tries to get over their fear by themself, mc lying and cove finding out in the middle of it (higher probability with younger cove who doesn't know the mc as well), or mc telling him and them working together to overcome the fear. tbh scenario 1 leads to 2 anyways LOL
woah. just thought of another option where mc tries to get over their fear by themself first. to be quite honest i'm not sure how effective that'd be, and also if it'd be a good idea at all so i'd hope it also leads to scenario 2
if mc does manage to make a dent in their fear with their own research and taking a lot of time, cove might catch on just because they're spending a lot of time at the beach. whether he asks to tag along, or he actually finds them himself, it feels a bit inevitable LOL
scenario 1 (caught in a lie) — mc is standing on/near the shore while cove's already wading into the water, probably up to his hips by now. he turns to find them staring and is just,, so confused
he asks what they're doing, and if they actually wanted to stay on the shore, but mc's hesitation tips him off that something's up
when mc finally tells him they're actually scared of water young cove might ask why they wanted to come with him then. cue mc saying they wanted to spend time with him or something of that sort and cove being flustered immediately 🥹🥹
either way he's honestly so so shocked how he didn't know about this earlier considering his own affinity for water and where they live . ultimately he's understanding and tries to find a compromise; he doesn't want to make them do something they don't want to!!
if mc tells him that they want to go in the water he's a little hesitant, but their obvious dedication gets his compliance
scenario 2 (teamwork) — he's taking this seriously! cove asks beforehand what they want to do, if there's anything he shouldn't bring up, etc because he really really wants them to be comfortable.
he tells them about all the nice things about swimming and some of his favourite memories to try easing into it. cove talking about mermaids and different stories he's picked up...🥹🥹
won't go far into the water unless mc really wants to; he's happy to sit in the water where it isn't too high and just talk ! and if they want to hold onto him, he's right there
if mc can't swim and they ask cove to teach them ?? he'll definitely try his best. might run to get some kind of floaties or something, and also stay near the shore since he's never had to teach someone how to swim but you know
cove offers to get his surfboard so they could at least rest on it while he takes them around. he promises he's strong and will move slowly so it's no problem for him
if mc apologizes for taking their time, or they're scared that they've ruined his plans, etc. etc. cove reminds them that he wants to help, and that he's touched that they want to go into the water. getting over huge fears isn't easy and it's really admirable that mc wants to put in the time
oh brother. one of the things i despise is dunking my head under the water. i simply won't. i can imagine cove comforting mc by holding their hands/arms, telling them they only have to do it for a second, etc. it's about baby steps, baby!
they go further and further whenever mc is ready, and cove gets so so proud/happy each time. Dating cove with High Initiative? little kiss for every accomplishment. sorry i make the rules and i'm right.
cove won't ask While they're swimming or anything, but he does wonder if there's a story behind their fear. he asks tentatively, giving them time to think of a response and is of course not hurt if they wouldn't like to share then and there. he does reassure them that if they do want to talk about it later, he'll be there
even if it actually takes multiple 'sessions,' at the end of it all they both get to enjoy swimming together so it was really worth it ^___^ they can now both swim far out, or surprise the other from below, idk play marco polo?, etc etc

i wanna ask, wich driver would you like to see on screaming meals?
Ohhhh this is a tough one because I honestly have a head cannon that Marcus will eventually do this full time and dive into Motorsport media if he doesn’t do racing himself so it’s open a lot of possibility or guests. (Or at least I hope he does.) Sorry if this is a little long, I've watched my fair share of motorsport podcasts and I just think this one is so special.
It's hard to determine but this is my list nonetheless:
1) people we have no idea about (photographers, managers, race engineers etc.)
I would absolutely love this idea. These are the people that spend the most time with drivers in the most unfiltered way and they’d be close enough to not hold back. They likely would've had enough of their (especially Marcus') neuroses to really just put people on blast. If I only could pick one though, my pick would be to have MP Motorsport’s Coordinator Jen. I think she's a real hidden powerhouse in the paddock, taking on so many vital roles during her career and I always love hearing stories of the behind the scenes that keep this crazy travelling circus running. With how hectic everything gets, she's bound to have crazy stories of things going wrong or figuring things out last minute. Also, imo, she always puts out some of the best photos of the weekend. They're always so candid and full of personality which is really hard to capture well in photos. She may be more reserved but this would also be the perfect opportunity for Clem (the newest co-host in town) to solo host or only host with James along with Felipe as a returning guest following his championship win. Jen would have the comfort of two people she's already close with as well as someone who's able to be more inquisitive, structured, and relatable to the audience. Would also love to hear her perspective on what it's like as a third party, non-racer, watching someone go through the motions of winning a championship. (Also big bonus: she's a Kiwi!)
2) Paris Armstrong
Younger sister energy goes hard and you know we’d get the most embarrassing stories about Marcus from her because at the end of the day, he’s not an F2 Motorsport driver; he’s a pain in the ass that she’s unfortunately blood-related to. It’s also always interested me that most drivers move away from home so early in their lives. It’d be great to see them touch on what growing up was like given that they now live in London together/originally started the Screaming Meals Instagram together.
3) Lando Norris
He’s been mentioned quite a bit on the podcast already through karting stories even though they don't claim to be close. I think his dry humour, quick wit, and generally cluelessly upbeat personality would be really fun to have on the podcast. Not to mention, having him on the podcast I think would be the best foray into having higher profile F1 personalities on the podcast that aren't close friends. (Screaming Meals special where they all go karting again for old times sake? Ft. Callum Ilott? We can only hope for now.)
4) Liam Lawson
Triple the trouble. I know they technically don’t get on well or aren’t particularly close, but it’d be fun to hear the return of Marcus going full kiwi because at this point, Clem sounds more kiwi than Marcus does. It's also because I wonder if James has any stories of bumping into Liam during the NZ karting circuits because it's such a small circle. Liam is pretty chaotic so I think it'd be interesting to see what the dynamic is like. I'm pretty sure in this case, to have a non-awkward episode there might have to be a secondary guest. The obvious pick would be Juri Vips because he's close with both Liam and Marcus but uh- idk how that would really work.
5) Robert Schwartzman
While bringing Jehan, Callum, and/or Enzo on the same episode. I'd love for them to recount their old Prema days. Some of the wildest stories we've heard so far were from the episode with Callum so there's bound to be more from their end as well. I'm mostly thinking about that boxing story between Rob and Enzo. (Another specials idea where they do a boxing challenge to relive that one training camp?)
6) Guanyu Zhou
Although we don't see it as much, Zhou does happen to be quite close with them. (As pictured in the latest Screaming Meals IG story.) That would be something really interesting to listen to because Zhou is such a reserved character on the Paddock. He's definitely got a sense of humour and I think having a space like Screaming Meals where they can just banter and go back and forth, we'd be able to see a new/hidden side of him.
7) James Harvey Blair (The man himself)
James, James, James. Ngl I think he really carries this show. He's given us some of the greatest moments so far and I think people really overlook a host like James. For podcasts, it's so important to have a host or a character that the audience can channel themselves through and in this case, I think it's James. He's always so on top of keeping the questions going and while he is the brunt of a lot of jokes, I hope he really gets the love and appreciation he deserves. (I think sometimes you can see the jokes kind of get to him) Having a podcast on him and what his story is besides "I'm just a no-name insurance broker" would be special. If anything, having it as a birthday special would be really nice. Also, what is it like being in a space that he was so close to for so many years while not driving himself? Growing up, it's so hard to let go of things that are so familiar to you; that basically built and raised you as a person. I'm always so interested in that narrative, of drivers that had to at some point make the decision or were forced into making the decision of stopping motorsport. (Also James casually just name dropping he works for Lloyd's like it's not one of the world's biggest and oldest powerhouses when it comes to insurance and finances???)
8) Rory, the Editor
Just let me know what goes on behind those cuts and bleeps. LOL but all jokes aside I just want to know how Rory ended up as their editor and what it's like travelling and working for Screaming Meals. What were his other experiences before this? Was he working in motorsport or did he somehow just fall into this??? So many questions for the floating voice off camera. Again, another birthday special featuring Rory would be really fun and a great way to show their appreciation for the work he does on the podcast.
Anyways, there's a reason I love this podcast sm and It's because I think it really offers what the sport is missing/needs in order to progress and grow into their newer audience. People like to hate on new fans or fans joining just for the personalities of the drivers but those aren't reasons to discredit them as fans of the sport. They watch the races, keep up with what's going on and if that doesn't make you a fan I don't know what does. Often what the sport needs are these personalities to draw people in first, especially when it comes to grasping a younger demographic that you need in order to build a long lasting fanbase so the sport doesn't die out. Older motorsport media doesn't do a good job of hooking in a newer fanbase, especially for F2. It's dry and it often seems too overproduced to really get genuine stories from drivers who are a lot newer and shyer to the media ring. We're just seeing the emergence of an audience looking for these more modern media outlets such as WTF1, PitStop, and TG1F to name a few. Screaming Meals is in the optimal place to become a motorsport media mainstay and is already quickly becoming a ticket for a huge uptick in F2 support. This could translate to more eyes and opportunities as a whole for the series and feeder drivers itself. Too bad the FIA and F2 media don't see more value in this, but hey, they can now just take the show and run with it without having to bend to the whim of some mega media conglomerate

Obey Me! N$FW Headcanons!
Written with @otomiya-tickles
Oh goodness, sweet Ginny and I are way too invested on these boys! We've been talking about the Obey Me boys' virginity and masturbating likings, and we decided to post these bunch of naughty hc’s. We hope you enjoy them~
Diavolo
Tumblr media
We think this sweet looking guy has fucked at least once (don’t let him fool you, he’s fucked more than that)
We also think it can be because he was feeling horny and wanted to satisfy his needs or because he wanted something in return
When it comes to masturbating - he’s a shameless one
He’d go to the bathroom before a meeting or in the middle of the day to jerk off!
Goes back fresh as a lettuce, uf
One of Diavolo's fantasies is having someone looking at him while he masturbates!
He also has very sensitive nipples, you can’t change our minds
We think that when it comes to sex, Diavolo wouldn’t enjoy it as much if he’s not doing it with someone he loves
He’d just do it for some regular sexual thrill, but nothing too exciting
All for the dick, lololololol
Lucifer
Tumblr media
Oh goodness, we think he wouldn’t be that interested about sex, but he’s up to do it if he feels the need!
We dare to say that he’d try to please Diavolo if he’s asked to, just like in our tickle hc’s!
L: “Fine. *sigh* if you must… Can I refuse?” D: “Noooo!!!” L: “Alright,, but make it quick” D: “I will, I will!!!”
Something like that, lolololololol
But sometimes when he sees how happy the other person gets he might smile a little (which is just too charming), or when he makes the other person feel real good
He will have a satisfied smirk
We think he’d be the pickiest little shit out there when it comes to choose a sex partner
He just won’t have sex with anyone! It doesn’t matter if they’re the most beautiful being alive, if there’s something he doesn’t like, then he won’t have sex with them!
Unlike Simeon, he’s not that flirty and doesn’t tease much, but of course he’d be so hard to get!
Both in ship and non-ship case, we think he’ll help Diavolo fulfill his sexual needs, but other than that he seems a very hard one to lay a hand on!
We thiiink Diavolo would make him watch while he masturbates, huhu
And Diavolo would be like “Touch my nipples?” and of course, Lucifer can’t deny him
We also think that since the MC manages to win him over, he just has the sexual hots for them!
We think Lucifer wouldn’t be horny for celestial beings since he wants nothing to do with heavenly things!
He knows and acknowledges angels are attractive but somehow horny is just not in his book
Unless with the one he really likes then he can be a beast xD
Omg, Lucifer banned the word Sex in the House of Lamentation, hahaha!
He really doesn’t like his brothers talking about sex. He’s just not interested in their sexual lives!
The horny bunch got their own chat room to talk about their nasty sex xD
Be it Mammon or Asmo talking about it (they both do it a lot) or they making remarks about Levi jerking off to things (Levi is flustered)
Those kinds of talks are not appreciated by almighty Lucifer
Asmodeus
Tumblr media
Of course you won’t expect the Avatar of Lust to be a virgin, right? Because he is not!
He’d have sex with anyone attractive and that wants to have sex with him!
He’s also on the top of the masturbation list
Kinky bastard
Oh goodness, we think Asmo and Mammon have horny competitions like “how many times can you cum in one night?” or “how many times can you make your partner cum in one night?”
Actually these competitions were one of the reason talking about sex is banned in the House of Lamentation
Lucifer was like “Enough, you nasty pigs!” With that offended expression (you should know which one): wide eyes, a little gasp, a hand against his chest, yes. He’s pissed
Beelzebub
Tumblr media
We think Beel is too busy with his food to notice that he has sexual needs
… Unless he’s making out with his S/O, then he realizes how needy he is!
He also likes to use his mouth! Be it nibbling, sucking, biting, licking, just everything!
He will eat the other person and make teasy remarks that they taste good!
He’s not necessarily kinky, but anything that includes food is a bonus for him!
Like whipped cream on his partner’s body or flavour oils!
We think Beel would come up to his s/o with his happy smile holding up a new flavour oil like “I got this. Let’s use it tonight!”
We also think he’d be so good at kissing (and blowjobs) because he uses his tongue a lot!
He’s an expert with his mouth. Just him kissing and sucking a neck can make a person weak already!
Barbatos
Tumblr media
He’s also fucked before, so no Royal Virgins
We think he’s so into blowjobs and handjobs (mostly receiving)
He hardly ever jerked himself off, he will let others do it, omg!
He’s also so kinky: humiliating his partner, spanking, bondage, he’s up to everything
He's pretty resilient tho, like he can do a lot without getting hard yet hahaha!
Simeon
Tumblr media
We have no shame. Where’s the fun if our hot angel is not in these hc’s?
We think Simeon is the candy everyone would want but can’t get!
Honestly, this man doesn’t need to be naked to turn people on!
He’s sexy and hot and hard to get, so he might please others sometimes
He doesn’t get touched or fucked easily because he’s definitely “keeping himself” for the person he loves!
He’ll give someone a handjob, but then the other person wants to do something back to him and he’s like “Naaaah” *graciously leaves*
We think he wouldn’t use his mouth on someone else, though, so he’d be like “Hmm? I can give you a hand job”, while he does a very dirty move with his hand, ay
He’s also extremely skilled at it! Like??? How?!
He’s also a tease!
He’d say things like “oh goodness, you’re so wet. Does it feel that good~?”
And it’s so frustrating because he doesn’t get hard! Only for the person he loves, fufu
Leviathan
Tumblr media
It’s a dirty Otaku, no kidding LOL
We think he fantasizes, watches (you know what) and jerks off a lot
However, when it comes down to it he's shy and awkward
Definitely knows how to touch himself, but having someone touching him and/or touching someone???
Levi. exe has stopped working
He’s super subby and likes being told what to do, but he’s also cute and clumsy!
We think Levi is into many nasty things lolololol
As a dirty otaku he's seen a lot of things including the kinky shit: bondage SM/ tentacle sex (lolllll) so not really vanilla x'D he's just shy to ask or suggest anything
But he does get super hard whenever someone is dominant over him
He's definitely curious about all things he's seen, but he's way way too shy!
We think he probably just sends screenshots of the things he'd like to do and his partner is like "you want that? We can do it~"
We also think that he's jerked off so much and he knows how to please himself so well that it's a bit hard for him to come!
Like he needs a lot of pleasure and build up and other turn ons (like the kinky shit), and lots of verbal teasing to get him over the edge
Levi just needs a lot of stimulation, even though he is a virgin!
We also think he apologizes so much during sex! He’d be apologizing through all his moans and cries sdnjdsg
Like he will apologize if he doesnt come and then when he does come all over the other person he will apologize too haha
He's kinda into edging/denial? Like it takes a lot of time to make him cum, so it'd frustrate him so much if they stop when he's finally so close!
And he loves it when the other punishes him, like he doesn't necessarily act like a brat or something to be punished but he gets it on him anyway and when he does,it’s such a turn on for him haha!
He'd probably like to be spanked, but nothing too intense because he's baby
Levi usually talks SO much, so we think his dom can often tease him with that! Like “where are your big talks now~?”
To which Levi makes very courageous remarks like "don't touch me, normie" between moans and broken voice and his partner just "*spank* how did you call me?”
We think the whole concept of sex just changes him into this cute shy boy who's only had much experience with porn and fantasies
So he goes from the HOOOOOH loud Levi to just cute mewls, moans and apologies hahaha
We also think that he’d get ticklish when touched for the first tiiime, he’s so nervous and jumpy! Imagine him letting out this moany surprised giggles asjnd
He's also so ripped! He'd get flustered if you comment about his muscles!
His partner could be like "look how good your body is even if you're just an otaku staying inside all day long" and Levi is like "so meeaaan!!" All teary but his cock’s jumping skdjnff
While we do think Levi takes long to cum, he DOEs get hard pretty fast hahahaha
like maybe even when he's not fully undressed yet the bulge will already be visible!
We love cute kinky submissive dirty otaku boy >:)
Solomon
Tumblr media
He’s kinky, HAHA
A top tease! Like 24/7 smug and teasy and he will make the receiver beg and ask for it and play dumb like "What do you want? You'll have to be specific."
He’s also very hard to please!
Like even to get him hard it’s hard xD he's enjoying his time with his s/o, but he's skdkf not hard!!
He can endure a lot without getting horny but he just loves to watch a person get weak under his touch
We think even when he's on the receiving end, he gets all teasy and constantly challenges the other, like “is that all you got? 8-) You gotta try harder~”
We also think he can control himself a lot! Like he can hold his orgasms for quite a long time and be like "I’m not even close~"
He rarely jerks off because he's not that entertained by it, he just needs someone to tease and make crazy haha
We love the idea of almighty Solomon getting overpowered by an even higher top!
We don't think he will ever 'break completely' and beg or do anything uncool but he'll definitely have less of an attitude once taken good care of
He’d be like "o-okay that's... That's enough" and his partner all like "huh? We're just starting, Solomon, so keep yourself together" while he blushes a lot!
He sounds so hot when he moans and gasps! His voice is a hidden treasure!
And once he finally DOES reach his orgasm his entire body gets sooo sensitive!
He'd be a whiny mess if his partner brushes their fingertips or nails against his skin!
He'd squirm so much and maybe let out a whiny giggle????
Belphegor
Tumblr media
Belphie can be both genuine and teasy at the same time like "Does it feel good?"
He often needs confirmation and he often says things like "I'm inexperienced" or "I'm not sure how to do this" but he tries his best anyway
And besides saying things like "I'm inexperienced, I'm not sure what to dooo" he might say things like "Beel probably knows what to do." and he adorably tends to mention beel and the receiver will have to be like x3 omg no belphie you're doing fine
He'd be a little lazy to please his partner xD like he tries his best, but after he's like "I'm tired" and he wants to be taken care of!
He tends to get overwhelmed pretty fast by pleasure so he might ask the other to stop even when his body doesn't want it to stop but he's just like PSPHHgailugigh
He probably comes too fast the first times he has sex with his partner! He maybe just cums when they play with his nipples because he’s that sensitive!
He is so sensitive and his moans are so cute and whiny
We think he might be sore the next day xD he will complain a lot about being sore and tired haha
His body also gets tired fast during any intercourse, even though he does feel good and enjoys it, he will whine and whimper about it haha
He’d like to find little hickeys on his neck, chest or thighs the next day too!
He’s also very sensitive to neck kisses, probably enough to already stimulate him sexually since he’s so sensitive!
His little moans would be the cutest! And if he gets to make the other party feel good, he will show his precious smile!
Satan
Tumblr media
We think Satan wouldn't be too interested in sex, (he spends his time trying to be better than Lucifer skdndnd)
BUT we also think that he reads erotic books every once in a while and like those book don't necessarily turn him on per say, but make him feel blushy and a bit giddy about having someone to enjoy sexy times with!
He'd be quite knowledgeable and a bit shy like “I read that this feels good, may I?” He is not like super horny but he likes to experiment a bit and is just so sweet 😍👏🏻
He's got skills to make his partner feel good, but he'd be so, so blushy and would feel flustered if his partner compliments him about how good he is!
ALSO! Someone should not mention Lucifer in any competitive matter because that might activate his hidden beast
When he's receiving, he tries to hold himself back so much! Like his moans and any noises!
He just wants to hide how sensitive he really is!
His s/o would be a little pouty like "are you not liking it?" and he just adorably nods but he keeps controlling himself as much as possible hehe
And sometimes a cute little moan escapes and he blushes so much omg
Also he has super sensitive nipples, if he gets touched there he'd be arching his back so much and would cover his mouth with one of his hands to hold back his sounds and would grip the sheets with his free hand!! He'd be all beggy like "please don't touch me there~" while his hips circle and thrust because it feels so good!
We think bondage will work really good on him since he tends to squirm a lot and cover up. He’s so helpless if he can’t!
He'd be pulling at his restrains and biting his lip so hard and begging for his s/o to let him go (even though he can escape on his own), and they're just teasing him
He’d also get extra sensitive if he’s being edged, like everytime they deny him his release, he'd just feel more and more sensitive and eventually won't be able to stop his sounds!
Satan begs a lot and he whines adorably but he’ll never say a safe word or give up
Satan being like this makes us want to wreck him!
We think he'd get a bit turned on if his s/o brush their fingers against his sides and he’d be so shy if he lets out a little giggle here and there!
"don't- don't tihihickle me right nohohow!" And his cock is shaking dkdnf
He’s also the type to get ticklish and super sensitive everywhere especially after an orgasm
And his giggles and moans are so cuuute and he sounds tired and whiny and he shakes his head adorably omg
His cheeks super red babyyyyyy
Mammon (tumblr didn't let me upload a pic, wtf?)
He’s a beast! Will have no mercy, so brace yourself!
To be fair, he’s really good in sex, so he loves praises! Compliments stimulate him. He needs to hear how good he is!
What can you expect from the Avatar of Greed, right?
He’s the typical guy to run after his dick, lololol! He’s all about money and sex!
We think he gets horny and hard in the most uncomfortable moments. He gets so many boners a day wtf
Even his brothers just stare awkwardly at his crotch… “wait… are you hard? o_O”
We also think he loves receiving blowjobs and he loooves to hold his partner by their hair!
He’s a passionate mouth fucker
He probably feels a bit vulnerable when people touch him elsewhere like, he just wants the attention for his dick!
And he might be sensitive somewhere else but he doens't quite like to be touched unless it's his love haha
He's really picky! Like if he's with someone else, then it's just dick attention, but if it's the person he loves, then they'd let him touch him everywhere!
He's a bit less casual about it than Diavolo, but he does jerk off from time to time and people will be able to tell from the look on his face haha
And he doesn't like to be confronted and teased with it, while Diavolo won’t give a shit
However, Asmo would tease him so much just because he knows Mammon hates that!
He’d be like "woah! Did you have a good one, Mammon~?" or “what did you think of mammoonnn?<3”
Also Asmo and maybe even the others might make some remarks like "Ugh, Mammon would jerk off to this"
Probably besides Asmo he might have some arguments with Levi from time to time, like Mammon's a nasty perv normie and Levi the dirty otaku
Levi would probably agree whenever someone's like “ugh Mammon would jerk off to this” or any other remark like “oh, he probably just gonna suck on his own dick!
And mammon will fire back at Levi for being a dirty otaku
We also think that Mammon has walked into Levi's room when he was watching anime porn hahaha
Mammon thinks his own porn is superior and Levi is like "that normie stuff is gross, this is way better" so Mammon ends up watching hentai with Levi xD
Also if people ever need condoms he probably has a good stash. He's really picky, so of course he'd have his stash of condoms! We're not risking anything here hahaha
It’s hard to Dom him, like he’s not super Dom, but he likes to be the possessive one!
He also might have a lot of kink stuff stored but in the end he just doesn't end up using it?
He would like to be kinky but in the end he just has normal sex
He’s also easy to distract! Like he's super horny and has the handcuffs or something else kinky ready, but the other person just can give him a blow job and let him fuck them and then it's done and he's like ohh oh well
He'd also be a bit turned off easily, like, he's still hard and all, but at then he ends up having sex just because, but he's bored, but if he's turned ON he can stay turned on for quite a while haha hes a beast!
Like fuck after fuck even after he comes! He likes it raw and he loves to hear his partner whining so much about how they just came too
He also likes to hear his partner saying just how tired they are and he'd give them this wide, lethal smirk and be like "we're just starting, so put yourself together"
And he's sweating a bit and his cheeks are a bit flushed and his skin just glooowwsss because he's feeling so good!
We also think Mammon is not too loud when having sex, he’s just not a moaner, but he will grunt and huff and occasionally you'll hear this kind of growl that just proves how good it makes him feel

Hello !!! I really liked ur writing (also the fandoms you do are chef's kiss) and i wanted to request for Mondo, Togami and Fuyuhiko (separately of course) with a very touchy (short 👀 I'm like 5'0") reader, who likes to squish their cheeks, hug them and give lil smoochies, sit or have the boys sit on her lap and other stuff like that? (It'd be cute if it were a mutual crush situation but I don't mind platonic either) Thank you sm in advance if you write it !!

Mondo Owada
Honestly, he never thought he would ever be in this position.
Him? The Ultimate Biker Gang Leader? Receiving a constant supply of affection?
Ridiculous. Improbable. Impossible.
Oh, but don’t get me wrong. It’s not like he doesn’t enjoy the attention. But after he accidentally shouted at you in embarrassment when you complimented his eyes, reflexively crushed a pencil and consequently showered you with the splintered wood when you ambushed him with a hug, and fled from the premises after you innocuously offered to massage his shoulders… the idea of you sticking around in his life seemed unfeasible.
But here you are.
It doesn’t take him long to grow accustomed to the attentiveness and devotion you always treat him with.
“So, we should close off this area and tighten our control around this neighborhood. Oh, and maybe--”
“Uh, sir? What’s… um… What’s..?” One of his men tentatively pointed to where you were clinging to Mondo’s back, legs constricted around his waist and arms looped around his neck, blinking blankly at the man standing before you.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Mondo didn’t even flinch. “Anyway, as I was saying--”
Mondo really doesn’t mind when you cling to him in public. In fact, he appreciates the warmth of your body and the unexpected sense of security that holding your hand gives him.
But, he starts to draw the line when you stand in front of him while he’s sitting, smiling sweetly as you squish his cheeks and giggle about how adorable he is. He always flushes a florid shade and averts his eyes from yours. He would never tell you, but whenever you do that, he feels so defenseless, something that the rest of his crew should never know about.
That’s why he tells you to keep such intimate actions private. When you two are alone, you can squish his cheeks and pepper his face with kisses as often as you want. You understand this, and you’re always ecstatic whenever you walk in on him somewhere he’s alone.
You’re so short he loves it omg.
He thinks that watching you struggle to reach his face with your lips is so funny. He will often poke fun at you by either pretending to not see you or lifting his chin even higher. When you finally give up and try to storm away with a huff, he captures you in his arms and lifts you off the ground while you grumble indignantly.
Okay, but when you press yourself against him and wrap yourself in the loose fabric of his jacket so that it covers both of you? BITCHHH he melts.
Due to your short stature, you often find yourself seated upon his shoulders. At first, Mondo was taunted by his friends for quote-on-quote “having his head buried between your thighs,” but Mondo easily dismissed their teasing. He knew that your intentions were nothing less than pure…
Even if he initially was nervous and sweaty at the idea of being so… so close to you.
Mondo always treated you as if you were made of glass. Since you’re so small and he’s so muscular and tall, he always feared that a single bump or scratch would absolutely eviscerate your bones and pulverize your internal organs. For a while, he had been worried that he would forget about his own strength and accidentally hurt you. So, it did take him a little longer to reciprocate your affectionate.
That being said, he nearly flipped his shit when you nonchalantly asked him to try sitting in your lap. His brain was pumping out ideas at ninety miles an hour, but his lips could only communicate half of them, leaving him stuttering and nearly choking on his saliva. He was certain that he would crush your body beyond recognition if he tried.
No way. No. No. Absolutely not.
He’s cool with having you seated on his lap, though. In fact, he even encourages it. Having such a stunning gem to show off to his men during meetings stokes the flames of confidence within him, often resulting in a shit-eating grin and a protective hand on your shoulder or around your waist.
You get unlimited access to Mondo with his hair down, you lucky bitch.
You’re absolutely bewitched with how soft his hair is as it slips through your fingers like rivulets of water, the opposite of how it feels when it’s gelled into his usual hairstyle. You spend a lot of time combing your fingers through his hair and lightly scratching his scalp. Mondo finds it extremely relaxing, and he often comes to you whenever he has a headache or needs an extra push that will lull him to sleep.
Tumblr media
Byakuya Togami
Before you appeared in his life, he had never been subjected to genuine love and sentiment. In his world, it was either surpass or be surpassed. Mercy was not an option, and competition was all he knew. As a result, he views everyone around him as inferior and lesser creatures.
When you first started to show kindness to him, he thought that you were merely pitying him because he spent so much time by himself. This led to him holding you at an icy distance and shooting scathing remarks in your direction.
However, you were steadfast in your determination to make Byakuya a part of your life. It took some time, but soon enough, you had earned a place in his heart.
He wished that he didn’t know how it was possible for you to have become such an essential part of his life, but he did. No matter how many times he told you that you were annoying, a distraction, or disgusting, it was clear that you were absolutely unaffected by it. You knew that his dislike of you wasn’t personal. Your tenacity is what caused his harsh words to dissipate in his throat and him to surrender to the prospect of developing a relationship with you. 
You were strong, and he understood that now.
It definitely takes him a long time to accept your clingy nature, and even then, he sometimes feels suffocated by the surplus of affection.
It doesn’t mean that he completely brushes you off. It just means that you have to be more sparing with your ministrations.
He sees nothing wrong with allowing you a quick hug or to hold his hand in public. If anyone says anything about it, he will deadass act like nothing is happening. He knows that if he acknowledges it, the chances of him becoming openly flustered will skyrocket.
He would never be able to live it down.
Anything else you would like to do to him, he prefers to keep it private.
Wow, that sounds suggestive.
Whatever, let’s proceed.
He’ll gripe and complain about you being heavy, but he never pushes you off or directly tells you to get off when you burrow your way beneath his arm and curl into his side while he reads. He’ll just sigh and settle his arm around you with the tiniest, most discreet smile.
He can’t help but chuckle to himself when you remove his glasses so that you can wear them instead. His chuckle flourishes into a genuine laugh when you promptly yank them off, your stomach churning in protest of your warped vision.
When you hold his hand in private, you pay a lot of attention to his fingers. You toy with them, marveling at how strong they are despite their slender appearance.
So, kisses are a thing.
“What was that?”
“Uh, a kiss.”
“Revolting… Do it again.”
A common thing, actually.
You plant kisses everywhere that you can: his fingertips, his cheeks, his shoulders, the back of his hand, his nose. He never fails to blush red as a rose, often pulling away and pressing the back of his hand to his mouth.
If you want him to complain in mock disgust, press a sloppy, prolonged kiss right in the center of his forehead.
If you want him to squirm, brush the softest kiss you can manage to either his collarbone or the shell of his ear. Biiiitchhhh…
ANYWAY, THAT’S NOT THE POINT--
Surprise, surprise. He loves poking fun at your height. How shocking. How absolutely unbelievable.
Like Mondo, he finds amusement in watching you balance on your tiptoes as you try to kiss him. You, however, combat his devious snickering by seizing his crossover tie and yanking him down to your height, catching him off guard. Then, all he can do is inwardly grumble about his blunder while you press a kiss to the corner of his lips
He once actually sat on you to trap you after you tried (and failed) to tickle him. He wasn’t expecting you to laugh gleefully and wrap your arms around his waist to anchor him to you. Since you were enjoying what he deemed a punishment, it was no longer pleasurable for him. He finds it embarrassing to voluntarily sit on anyone’s lap--let alone the lap of someone remarkably smaller than him. He sees it as a role of submission. Need I explain more?
He won’t complain if you sit on his, though. Well, I lied. This bitch complains about everything. It’s more like… he won’t reject you if you end up on his lap.
But about a half hour into whatever the hell this “cuddling” thing is, Byakuya discovers that the combination of your weight and body heat is an interesting catalyst for the onslaught of fatigue that he’s been procrastinating for the longest time.
You happen to doze off first. But upon awakening, you notice that Byakuya’s head is resting against yours, his arms loosely wrapped around your waist. His book is closed beside him.
Ngl, you thought he was actually going to rock your shit the first time you squished his cheeks. His frosty glare was enough to make you draw back in shock, but it soon disappeared, accompanied by a sigh from him.
“You have one more opportunity to do that. Don’t waste it.”
Oh, you definitely don’t.
Tumblr media
Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu
Someone is???? Smaller than him???
!!!!
That one inch of height makes him feel so powerful omfg.
Because of his job, he would rather keep any kind of affection hidden behind closed doors. The only people who he would let PDA slide around are those in his immediate circle, like his family, Peko, and whoever else serves directly under him.
He just wants to keep you safe, and he feels that the best way to do that is to not make it known that he has a soft spot for you.
You smile at the way his aloof, callous demeanor switches to a gentler, more amicable one when he sees you waiting for him to finish whatever job he’s been tasked with. His perpetual scowl melts away, the wrinkles of irritation blemishing his forehead smooth, and his distrusting, narrowed eyes round with an almost childlike, innocent delight.
You enjoy the latter side of him so much that it isn’t uncommon for you to cling to his waist and drop like dead weight, forcing him to drag you with him across the floor if he wants to return to work.
“Hiko… You can’t leave..!” You whine. “I’ll miss you..!”
“I’m sorry…” He huffs, taking another step while you’re dragged behind him like some ragdoll. “But I have things I need to take care of!”
You eventually sink into a heap on the floor when he reaches the door, making a half-hearted attempt to hold on to his ankles.
He chuckles and squats down in front of you. “I’ll be back later.” You sit up and sharply turn your head away with a pout. He gently yet firmly seizes your chin between his thumb and forefinger, directing you to look at him. “Promise.” His eyes are gentle, but you know he’s serious. You reluctantly release him.
“Okay,” you mumble. “Please, be safe.”
You know the, “When I was your age…” thing?
Yeah, Fuyuhiko does that shit. But, he does, “When I was your height…” instead.
A fucki.ng pO w  e R trip.
He really likes the feeling of having you on his lap. It makes him feel like he’s actually capable of offering security to someone. Bonus points if you straddle his lap and hug him close in return, resting your chin on his shoulder.
Back-hugs? Back-hugs.
The first time you snuck up on him and embraced him from behind, he almost knocked you tf out. But over time, he’s gotten used to it. That doesn’t mean you don’t manage to catch him off guard from time to time. Feeling him jolt and hearing him yelp in shock when you wrap your arms around his waist never fails to make you laugh. One time, you laughed so hard that your legs gave out and you tumbled to the ground, accidentally dragging him with you.
Whenever he’s stressed, kisses always seem to be the cure. Sprinkled across his cheeks, tracing the edge of his jaw, following the shell of his ear, pressed to his fingertips--you name it. Whatever you have to offer, he’s more than happy to let you have your way and shower him with love.
You pay special attention to his freckles. Whenever he’s had a taxing day, you vow to kiss each and every freckle on his face. When you’re lulling him to sleep with his head in your lap, you smooth a feather-light fingertip over his cheeks, playing connect-the-dots with his freckles.
But there are just some days where he needs to be the baby, y’know? On those days, he likes laying with his face pressed into your stomach and his body curled into your embrace. You watch over him lovingly, tracing the designs shaved into his hair with a curious finger and slowly massaging his scalp.
He needs reassurance every now and then, verbal or otherwise. You are always more than willing to oblige, filling whatever role he needs at the moment.
He always takes necessary precautions, such as locking the doors and drawing the curtains, before he allows himself to strip his soul bare and lay all of his impurities before you. This is a side of him that no one else must know about. Otherwise, his reputation would take a massive blow.
Speaking of “baby,” it’s no secret that Fuyuhiko positively despises his baby face. You, however, adore it. You like to squish his cheeks and coo about how cute he is. He never resists you, and will even play along by puckering his lips at you if he’s in a good mood. It doesn’t change the fact that he doesn’t like his face, but if you seem to be fond of it, then maybe it’s not all that bad.
But if anyone else even thinks about touching him in such a manner, then that’s it.
Their ass is grass.

Fruits Basket - Vol 17
I am,,, confused. Thoroughly. Did I read this too fast? Am I misunderstanding? This book felt like a series of "What? Huh? What? Huh? What? Whuhh?? Huhhhhh?????" and I am kinda bewildered.
Tumblr media
So let's talk about it,,, somehow.
It starts with Shigure and Hatori talking about Akito's meltdown at New Year's, and how apparently Shigure tried to comfort Akito, but Akito was having none of it. The topic of Kureno came up, and how he just seems off, disconnected, in a sense, and also how Akito seems to have chosen Kureno above all the other Juunishi.
Panning over to Kureno, in the previous book Momiji gave him the CD of the play, "Sorta Cinderella". He seemed pretty affected by the things that Uotani said, but they also reminded him of moments with Akito, when he was younger. He calls Shigure later, asking for Tohru, which Shigure finds odd. What business would the two of them have? But it turns out that later, Tohru does run into Kureno, on her way to the store. She was squatting next to a bunch of birds, and when he showed up, they flew away. This is important at all, because that isn't what usually happens to the animals that the Juunishi share a spirit with (agh how to phrase things), in fact it's the opposite. Tohru asks Kureno about this, and then he solidifies any questions by hugging her and,,,, nothing happens. Somehow, he isn't affected by the curse. It has no hold on him, he won't turn into a bird (I suppose a rooster, specifically, which is kinda sad bc I was looking forward to that, in a little way. It'd be funny, if nothing else) if he gets really weak or sick, or if he hugs someone of the opposite sex.
Tohru asks him how this happened, and when, but Kureno doesn't really know. It happened randomly one day, a while back, but he has no idea was triggered it. It's just that, one day, he was vibin, doing his thing, and it just happened. No one else in the family knows, he's just been pretending that he's still a Juunishi. Kureno also said that he can't be with Uotani, that the CD was a wasted attempt, because he's promised to be with and take care of another person, that person being Akito. Kureno makes it clear, though, that he still does care for Uotani, but he just can't be with her. This whole time, it's been switching between the current interaction between Kureno and Tohru, and flashing back to when Kureno first realized that the curse broke for him, and Akito was just fucking losing his mind, screaming and shit. He begged for Kureno to stay, regardless of the curse (btw, at this point, Kureno's a teenager, and Akito's still a little kid, so it was a little while ago), and Kureno said that he would promise to stay with Akito, stay by his side, pretend that he's still a Juunishi, etc.
And then, at the end of the chapter, something is revealed: apparently Akito's a girl. To be honest, I'm not really sure what to do with this information. As far as I can remember, it doesn't really have much to do with anything. Why has he (she? fuck. I have no idea.) been presenting as a boy this whole time? Because his mom forced him, since he was born. Why did she do that? I don't know, it didn't say in this book. Hopefully it fucking clarifies later on, because I'm just getting vibes from that one Insidious movie, with that ghost/demon person. Wasn't that their deal? Something like that. Reversed, but something like that. Idk, I was too busy being scared shitless to think about the intricacies of the plot.
Anyway, so Akito's apparently a girl, but has been raised as a boy. Four of the Juunishi know this: Shigure, Hatori, Ayame, and Kureno, because they were all kids when Akito was born. Apparently, when Akito's mom (her name is Ren) was pregnant with Akito, they all came to her and were crying and shit, acting super weird. Like, they all just knew that Akito would be the God.
As a fun side note, Ren and Akito fucking hate each other. Just,, so much. Is there a person in the Sohma family that doesn't have familial issues, because it just seems like there are a lot of people who do. I think maybe Kagura doesn't? I haven't seen anything saying she has issues. Nothing much has been said about Shigure's, Hatori's, or Kureno's families, so maybe they're okay? I dunno, but one of the things that specifically shows up between Ren and Akito, is that Ren does not believe in the "bond" that Akito and the rest of the Juunishi have, saying that it's a fake love, that, if given the choice, the Juunishi would not behave or treat Akito the way they do, which is kinda true. From what I read about when Yuki first met Akito, there were a lot of conflicting feelings, ranging from "I hate you but also I never want to be away from you" to "This is hell on earth just being near this person but also to be away from this person is agony", and like, whoa. That's a lot. I doubt it's like that at all anymore, but there has been some mentions that Akito does have some higher hold on the Juunishi than other people do.
All this said and done, I still want to know more. I am heavily curious. I'd like to know more about Akito's whole situation. I'm glad he's not just a one-dimensional "bad guy", but dang, some of this stuff, it just feels like it's coming out of left field. (Is that a baseball thing? That sounds like a baseball thing. Idioms are weird.)
By the time that Kureno leaves, Tohru's a wreck. She's crying, and confused, and just,,, yikes. (I kinda was too, but just the confused part.) And so who comes to the rescue than Hanajima, and also Hanajima, but the small one. (I realized recently that most of these people are referred to by their first names, except for like, Uotani and Hanajima, which makes sense. A massive swath of these characters would all be "Sohma". It'd be confusing as fuck. But still. Idk) Hanajima felt Tohru's sheer confusion and despair, and Megumi tagged along because why not, y'know?
Hanajima decided that Tohru would stay with her for the night, so that she and Tohru and Uotani could all talk stuff out about what Tohru was upset about. Unfortunately for Shigure, Yuki and possibly Kyo? I don't think he was home at the time but maybe??, that meant that Tohru wasn't making dinner. So Yuki potentially gave Shigure and himself food poisoning, but hey, it's better than takeout, right? (Seriously, Tohru's back must be tired from cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, and dealing with everyone's emotional baggage, she's doing so much. And she still has her own personal shit that she does, like,,, how hasn't she lost her shit yet??)
Tohru says that Kureno was kind, in that he was looking out for other people's feelings and wellfare before his own, and Hanajima says that she (Tohru) does the same thing (which is what Uotani first saw in Kureno, and why she thought that he was like Tohru), but Hanajima worries that the more that Tohru does that, the more that she carries the worries and troubles of other people, it could end up hurting her. (We love a caring friend that cares) In the end, Uotani tells Tohru that it's okay, that she cares more about the relationships she has now than whatever she might have had with Kureno, which was nice.
Moving onwards, the school is making preparations for graduation! I don't think Tohru and Co. are graduating quite yet (maybe they are idk), but there are these paper flowers that they're making, and for some reason, shenanigans ensue. Like, a group of girls just nabbing a bunch of flowers that Kyo made?? Why? That's really weird of you to do. Stop that. (They were tracked down and forced to make up for all the flowers they stole, because for some reason they wouldn't give back the flowers they stole.) It's kinda weird, I forgot that Kyo is also kinda popular with girls, because usually we only hear from the girls that fawn over Yuki. But yeah, that's a thing for Kyo, as well. Weird, either way.
Now we are at the last chunk of the book, hooray! This isn't as long as the previous one 😬. So, Shigure and Akito got something weird going on. I'm not really sure what to think of it, honestly. Apparently Shigure slept with Ren, and Akito kicked him out of the main house as a punishment, which Shigure did not fight back at all. (wow that was not a large section at all i totally didn't just lose steam and stop right there at all nope not me i don't do that not at all)
I'll admit that part of me is still kinda,, squeamish? I guess? about people in the Sohma household being in relationships, it's just that they all have "Sohma", that is probably messing me up. Idk. It's definitely not a healthy relationship. All kinds of weird tensions and miscommunication abound. It's not a good time.
