Nyquil [18+]
Tumblr media
You have trouble sleeping without your boyfriend’s help.
Warning! NSFW content in an established relationship. Reader likes to get eaten out as she goes to sleep - consensual somnophilia adjacent behavior occurs. Hobie Brown/F!Reader.
••●────── 🕸️⋅🕷⋅🕸️ ────────●••
“Can’t sleep huh, doll?”
He’s such a sweet boyfriend, sweet enough you thank your lucky stars every night that you found a boy like him to accompany you through life. Insomnia had been a long prevailing problem in your night routine, evident in your behavior at HQ where you were noted for being the Spiderwoman who often looked groggy and shuffled about. Your “nonchalant” nature initially enticed him - you really stuck it to the man by making it clear you didn’t care.
It took two months for him to realize you weren’t nonchalant. You were tired.
He’d made it a point to be the best help he could about it: it’s why he was over almost every night he could be now. Hobie does a great job to soothe you. The rough pads of his fingers tracing circles on your bare back. His lips pressing soft kisses to your head, your face buried in the pillow breathing the linen smell in with even breaths. “Hnng…” you mumbled in the pillow, feeling your consciousness slowly tettering but never falling to rest. It was exhausting, the endless sleepless nights before Hobie.
Only he could put you to sleep.
“Almost there? Does my doll need me to put her to bed?” he breathes, hot breath fanning your hairline. Aahh, that offer fans the heat in your core and the excitement of being close to him and being lulled to sleep keep your eyes twitching behind your closed lids - you might as well simulate REM sleep if you couldn’t get there.
“Yeah…” you huff, words soft as air and fanning over the fabric of your pillow’s cotton casing. His hot hand dipping lower under the thin jersey sheet to the small of your back.
His voice hot and raspy, a whisper on the shell of your ear, “Yeah?”
Nodding into the pillow, hands taut under it and your head, his body next to you and curving onto your body like a crescent moon with the way he was propped on one arm and the other starting to palm the fat of your ass.
“Wanna stay like that or you wanna turn a little so I can lap you up ‘fore I put you to bed, dolly?” You mumble something before rolling onto your back, tits coming to meet the air from the movement of the jersey blanket and spreading your legs in a lazy movement that gets him chuckling. He’s too giving, too concerned with getting you to sleep all cozy.
“Thank you,” he laughs lowly, pressing a kiss on your temple before wandering lower under the sheet, “I’ll put you to sleep, don’t you worry…”
He always presses soft pecks to your thighs first, hands around your thighs with his thumb grazing the skin.
He kisses the mound next, pecking the lips with sickeningly sweet gentleness; like pecking your cheek. He does it so gently, careful to not make you cum because it keeps you up longer, and instead sufficing with making out with the area. Suckling at the nub, lazily licking at it with slow big licks with a flat tongue.
You buck a little, sighing, your breaths slow as he hears your heartbeat settle. Both heartbeats. Your hips buck once more, before settling on the sheets - a small snore fills the air. The rumble of cars coming and going in the late night, some honks and some reving engines. Your fan in the corner purring as it washed your naked bodies in cool air. Window only slightly ajar. The dark room illuminated only by the lights of the billboards and advertisements in your universe’s big city.
Hobie comes up, ignoring the ache in his cock to settle on staring. No bodily function or lust could surpass the warmth in his mind. Even if the nonchalance was mistaken at first, the way your face glows a little brighter at HQ when your well-rested is more rewarding. Especially knowing how well you sleep because of him.
Your eyes twitch behind your lids and he can’t help but grin, hoping you’re dreaming of him. The cars rumble twenty stories below.
Hobie knows you’ll never need melatonin, chamomile tea, or nyquil ever again - not so long as he can soothe you.
🕸️𓆩♡𓆪🕸️
thanks for reading! smthng short n sweet - its only smutty for a second but idk I j thought it was a lil silly dynamic/habit for them to have :) feel free to request or chat abt hobie and miguel in my inbox <33

pairing. yoon jeonghan x reader
genre. fluff

a/n. tried my hand on enemies to lovers trope. let me know, how is it?!
m.list
Tumblr media
The library was your usual battlefield - worn textbooks, your weapons, silence the tense air you breathed. Jeonghan, your academic archnemesis, sat across from you, brow furrowed in concentration as he highlighted a passage. You, ever the strategist, were already two chapters ahead, a smug satisfaction blooming in your chest.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through the open window, scattering Jeonghan's meticulously organised notes across the floor. A strangled curse escaped his lips as he scrambled to gather them. You watched, a flicker of amusement dancing in your eyes.
"Need a hand, Jeonghan?" you couldn't resist the jab.
He shot you a glare, the kind that usually sent shivers down your spine. Today, however, it did little to faze you. "In your dreams, Y/N."
Minutes ticked by, the silence returning, thicker this time. You stole a glance at Jeonghan, his frustration evident in the way he chewed on his pen. An idea, impulsive and daring, popped into your head.
"You want me to help you pick these up?" you asked, feigning innocence.
Jeonghan's head snapped up, surprise momentarily replacing his annoyance. "You know I do," he muttered, defeated.
A surprised laugh bubbled out of you. "You want me?" you teased, leaning back in your chair.
He met your gaze, a hint of a blush creeping up his neck. "You know I do," he said again, this time his voice firm, but his eyes held a vulnerability that took you aback.
The playful banter dissolved, replaced by a sudden awareness. You realised, maybe, just maybe, this wasn't just about winning in the classroom anymore. Maybe, Jeonghan wasn't just your rival. Maybe, there was something more brewing beneath the surface of your competitive spirit.
A slow smile spread across your face. "Alright, Jeonghan," you conceded, extending a hand towards him. "Let's get these papers back in order."
He took your hand, his fingers lingering in yours for a beat longer than necessary. A spark ignited, a silent promise of a different kind of battle, one fought not with textbooks, but with unspoken feelings. The library, once a battlefield, now held the promise of something new, something exciting.

What if Hardison naming his van Lucille is a shout-out to watching Fresh Prince of Bel-Air after school and, like a lot of latchkey/lonely kids, forming an attachment to Uncle Phil while daydreaming about being wanted and loved and chosen, the way a lot of kids in the system feel.

THOUGHTS #1
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sweet boy changbin who comes home tired from all the work he’s been doing , laying down on the couch trying to relax a bit . He’s all sweaty from the gym he has gone , he feels his body weight heavy on him . He waits patiently for you to come and relive some stress from him . Climbing on his lap , caressing his body softly as he lets out a few soft whimpers . He wants you to touch him more , play with his sensitive nipples as you jerk his chubby cock . His cock so leaky , he just wants you to press your thumb against his tip , as he moans out your name , pinch his nipples and he’ll throw his head back as he rolls his eyes back . Leave soft kisses against his stomach as you keep tightening your grip on his cock as he cums in your hands , staining his stomach & your hand . Praise him for how good he has been for you , call him your good boy and he’d pay you back by shoving his face between your thighs , sucking on your clit eagerly , spreading your folds with his tongue as he tastes you . He’d try his best to make you cum as you grip his hair and grind against his tongue , he lets out a few groans , which vibrates against you making you arch your back . He just wants to prove to you how much he’s good for you and make his little bunny feel good as much as you had pleasured him .

KISS MY BLOODIED LIPS.
— pairing ; kaneki ken x human!gn!reader
— summary ; you never expected to kiss one of the hated humanoid monsters, yet here you were. or: first kiss with him.
— cw ; don't worry he doesn't actually have blood on his lips, fluff, awkward first kiss, slight making out? est. relationship
Tumblr media Tumblr media
only god knew why and how you ended up in a dark alley behind anteiku, but you were there and something was about to happen. you weren't dense, you could feel it in the way kaneki was looking at you – or rather, the way his gaze had dropped down to your lips more than once already. a gesture you reciprocated eagerly, until at some point you were just awkwardly staring at each other's lips.
you didn't know how to go from there, as you never kissed someone before. you weren't one to put much thought into what your first kiss would be like, but you always assumed it would be with a human. yet here you were, cornered by the ghoul you grew to adore.
no, kaneki didn't verbally tell you he wanted to kiss you, but you weren't oblivious; there was only one possible outcome to the position you were currently in, and you were afloat on the tight atmosphere. you couldn't wait, although you were incredibly nervous just as much.
"i-is this okay?" the half-ghoul asked, bringing up his hand to cup your cheek. kaneki gazed at you full of worry, as if one wrong move would break the spell and scare you away.
"mhm," you hummed, tilting your head to lean into his light touch a little more. you offered him an awkward smile, not knowing what else to say.
"i never did this before," kaneki confessed. "i guess i'm afraid of messing up, afraid of losing control, i don't know, i just–"
"only one way to find out, right?" you shrugged, trying to come off calm and collected. but your voice was a little shaky and uneven, giving away how nerves got a tight grip on you.
the boy with hair as pale as the moon visibly gulped, but something in his gaze hardened resolutely. it was as if he made up his mind, bringing up his other hand to cup your face completely and tilting your head to his favor. all physical distance was slowly being eliminated, the heavy anticipation palpable in the air between you. kaneki moved closer to you, barely daring to breathe as his eyes fluttered closed. you shuddered when his lips ghosted over yours, a fleeting touch that made both your breath hitch in your throat.
but the ghoul hesitated, froze in his movements, even drew back a little as his eyes opened anxiously. he was nervous, and it wasn't hard to figure out what was on his mind. after all, behind his soft lips rested the teeth of a deadly predator, and right now the hunter brought its teeth close to its prey. 
"we can wait if it doesn't feel okay yet," you reassured him as fear rose in his grey eyes. "we don't have to do it right now, there's no rush."
"no, i want this," kaneki sputtered, a slight frown falling upon his features. "i'm just afraid of hurting you, one way or another."
"i trust you," you solemnly told him.
"you shouldn't," the ghoul shook his head.
"but i do," you countered. "kiss me, ken."
kaneki sighed, muttering something under his breath before he finally gave in. the final distance that separated you was eliminated as his lips met yours – tentative, brief, lingering for but a second before he pulled back. he watched you, and as you showed no signs of dismay he dove right back in. this time he kissed you with more fervor, more courage, his lips moving against yours in a somewhat uncoordinated rhythm.
but god, you were enjoying it. your hands found his sweater, fingers clawing at the soft fabric to pull him even closer to you. he was being careful, he was holding back, you could feel it. but you weren't going to ask for more – not now. you were beyond happy with what he was giving you already.
when he pulled back, he was panting lightly – and so were you. kaneki looked at you, grey eyes full of adoration. you couldn't help but break into a full smile, looping your arms around his neck and hugging him close. the half-ghoul was quick to reciprocate the gesture, pressing a chaste kiss to the top of your head as he held you lovingly.
"see? i can trust you," you giggled lightly, resting your cheek against his shoulder as you clung to him.
"just not too much, okay?" kaneki muttered, his breath rustling your hair. "i'm a monster, and as much as i love you, you'll never know when i mess up."
it was a peculiar love story the two of you had. humans were supposed to despise ghouls, their only enemy. and yet you fought through the natural boundaries, getting too infatuated with one of the hated humanoids and erasing the line that naturally stood between the hunter and their prey.
but it was okay. maybe kaneki didn't trust himself, but you did. and you knew you wouldn't regret it, ever. after all, love was stronger than his hunger, right?

thinking about the things kukugumi pairs give each other during their movie revues and how they use those as fuel to move forward... kaoruko can let futaba go and promise to wait for her while holding onto her keychain, mahiru gives hikari's brilliance back to her so that she is able to meet karen on their final stage, junna takes nana's sword to forge her own path, maya and claudine quite literally offer themselves to each other via their contract, and finally it all comes full circle when hikari tosses a tomato to karen in the final scene of the movie - the main representation of the fuel that both the audience and the stage girl needs in order to be remade again and again. happy 27 months in theaters for revue starlight the movie

✹ catnip ; rob lucci ; ch. 1
content warnings: drug use, high sex, throatfucking/facefucking, sadism/masochism, rough sex ✹ read on ao3 author's note: i like rob lucci on a normal level
Rob Lucci wasn’t an easy man to deal with.
That much, you were already aware of.
He was a cold, cold man. No, not a mere man, but a killing machine. You had vivid memories of him in action, pointed canines glinting in the moonlight with blood splattered on his fur. 
He’s terrifying. 
But you couldn’t deny that there was something hypnotizing when you stared into his dilated pupils, swallowing the light like two blackholes, or his sharp claws glimmering when they were about to rip into someone’s throat.  
And that’s what shocks you as the man who’s currently sitting by your side does not seem like the same person, repetitively rubbing his cheeks against a small plant, occasionally taking a small bite of it with his pointed canine teeth. “Stop!” You say, eyebrows furrowed as you try to focus on rolling a joint. “I haven’t even rolled it yet, it’s not fair!” Lucci shrugs, laying the plant next to its vase on the table. “This was your own idea. You should be thankful that I even agreed to take part in this.” He says, sipping on a glass of whiskey. 
Well, he’s not wrong. Plus, he’s Rob Lucci and he’s an asshole, which you should already be aware of after years of working with him. 
As you lick the joint to seal it closed, you can notice Lucci looking intensely at you,  pupils slightly more dilated than usual. “What?” You say as you grab a green lighter from the corner of the table. He doesn’t answer, standing up to accommodate Hattori somewhere other than his shoulder, presumably so that he won’t inhale any of the smoke. It’s cute, how attached a killing machine can be to such a small and delicate creature like a pigeon. 
Come to think of it now, maybe cute’s not exactly the word. 
You’re snapped out of your thoughts when he comes back and sits back on the chair, pushing the lighter in your direction. “A little too eager for someone who was complaining about it ‘being my idea’ just a couple minutes ago.” He puts a finger over his mouth as if to politely tell you to shut up. “Screw you.” You say, as you put the joint between your lips and light it up, waiting for it to burn for a few seconds before inhaling the smoke. When Lucci notices you’ve already started, he ties his hair before grabbing a few more of the plant that’s on the table. A slightly minty smell comes your way as he rips off the leaves and starts rubbing them against his cheeks, occasionally taking tint bites of them. His pupils are wide, eyelids starting to get a bit droopy. 
You can feel your blood pressure lower as your body relaxes while you take another hit. How long had it been since you had actually smoked something decent? “Having fun, kitty man?” Lucci glares at you, but you can notice he’s starting to feel a bit out of it by the size of his pupils and the fact that he’s grabbed the plant vase and brought it closer so that he can rub against it, a few leaves tangling themselves on his hair. It’s hard not to let out of chuckle at seeing him so relaxed, although his breathing seems a bit heavier and his cheeks are getting flushed. You’re actually amazed at the fact he seems to be enjoying using catnip. And amazed at the fact that it actually works. 
“You okay there?” You actually start to worry a bit after he leans back on the chair and starts chewing on the catnip leaves. He nods, not even bothering to look at you as he chews and you take another drag. Your eyelids start to feel heavy and you feel giddy, lips curling into a loose lipped smile. Lucci quirks an eyebrow at this, a smirk on his lips. “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you this?” The smoke burns your lungs as you inhale it once again. You’re halfway through the joint as you put it off on the ashtray, deciding to enjoy your high for now and finish smoking a bit later. Lucci has stopped chewing on the leaves and is watching you with half-lidded eyes, legs spread and pupils so dilated you can barely see his onyx irises. 
You’re not sure if it’s the way he’s looking at you, the fact that you haven’t gotten laid in weeks, how much he looks like a damn work of art in the low light or your high getting to you. All you know is that Lucci, this horrible, bloodthirsty being, your coworker, looks fucking ethereal right now. Your elbows are on the table as you lean towards him, both of you looking at each other in a trance. “What?” He leans one of his elbows on the table. “Are you making me have a staring contest with you now?” His words are a bit slurred, probably due to the mixture of alcohol and catnip, and he’s so close you can smell the whiskey on his breath. If you got any closer to him, your lips would be on his, which honestly sounded like as much of a good idea as it was a very stupid one, after all, he was Rob Lucci. He could do anything to you with little or no effort if he wanted to.
He could also fuck you so good if he wanted to.  
No, no, no! 
He’s your coworker, he’s off limits and you should know that by know. Plus, you’re sure he isn’t even capable of being interested in other people or literally anything other than his job. 
At least that’s what you think, until the man starts getting closer to you, and you bite your lip. “You’re tensing up,” he says, his low voice rumbling in his chest. “Smoked a bit too much?” You can feel his warmth and his scent, and it feels like you just laid your face on a cat’s belly. “No. In fact, I think maybe I should smoke some more and take a good old high nap.” His fingers tangle themselves in your hair. “Are you really sure?”
He knows what he’s doing. 
He’s Rob Lucci, the assassin who can read anyone like a fucking book. 
You know you shouldn’t be loving the way he looks at you with his dark, intense gaze, but you just can’t help it. 
You want him.
He stands up from his chair and stands in front of you, and you can notice the bulge in his pants, now a tight fit due to his arousal. 
Okay, now it makes sense. 
You look at the bulge and then at him before he puts his hand on your head, pulling you closer to his crotch and looking at you as if asking for permission. 
At this, you unbutton Lucci’s pants and start palming him through his boxers, but he’s not taking it as he puts two fingers inside your mouth, shoving them as deep as he possibly can. You know he probably doesn’t even give a shit about whether you gag or not, but that only makes you wetter. 
He pulls away his fingers and only gives you a couple seconds before he pulls you towards his dick, shoving it as far as he can inside your mouth. “So warm,” he says, voice coming out a bit hoarse. You moan as he starts moving his hips, hands tangled tightly in your hair. He groans when you gag, throat tightening around his length before he pulls out to look at your face.
There’s spit dripping from your chin and a few strands of hair stick to your damp face. “That’s all it takes to make you learn how to shut the hell up? Some dick?” He smirks darkly down at you, giving your hair a light pull, and you scowl at him. “What are you so angry at? I can smell how wet you are right now.” His gaze reminds you that right now, you’re nothing but a small mouse in the claws of a leopard. He rubs his now wet length against you, spreading your own drool all over your face. You hate how hot it makes you feel. 
“Fuck, Lucci -“ you press your legs together, desperate for absolutely any relief you can possibly get. He looks at you, as if waiting for you to say anything else, a vicious grin making its way onto his lips. To anyone else, that would have been terrifying, but right now, it’s just ridiculously arousing. “Please.” You look at him, at the table, and at the queen-sized bed in the center of the room, its satin sheets shimmering in the moonlight.  He will definitely understand the message. 
If the man does understand, however, he still doesn’t do exactly as you wanted, lowering himself to take off your pants along with your underwear, putting your legs over his shoulders and giving your pussy a slow lick, his tongue rough like that of a cat’s. It’s a bit painful, but you don’t really mind it as long as it gives you some relief. Lucci licks his lips and looks at you with a smirk, not a single ounce of shame in his expression. It’s definitely not his first time doing this, you’re sure of it. He’s methodical, giving you an experimental lick and sliding two fingers inside, growling as he feels your wetness. 
However, you should know that a man like Lucci doesn’t ever stay on his knees for long. He stands up and puts his hands under your thighs, lifting you so that your chest is pressed to his and you can feel his hardened length against your belly. “What are you-“ before you can say anything else, he throws you on the table, and you can hear the ashtray clinking as it shakes. The man takes the joint and lighter, quickly lighting up the joint as he presses it to his lips, inhaling the smoke, and leaning down. “Open your mouth.” You oblige, and he blows the smoke into your mouth, plump lips pressing against yours. “This is what you wanted, right? I’ll make sure to get the most of it.” The man rubs himself against your entrance teasingly, growling as he allows himself to feel a bit of your warmth. He then lowers himself again to shove his tongue inside you, licking his lips when he pulls away. You can see his beard glimmering from your wetness, and it makes you incredibly turned on. “You taste… surprisingly good.” You can hear him murmur before he goes lower and bites your inner thigh with his sharp canines, and you scream out in a strange mixture of surprise, pain and accumulated arousal. “Fuck! Lucci!” You instinctively tug on his hair. “That fucking hurts!” 
Which was possibly the greatest idea you could’ve possibly had.
Lucci, ever the sadist, cracks a smile at your words, looking up at you while licking his lips. “Oh, it hurts? Let me show you what else hurts.” And finally, he stands up and turns you over, barely even giving you a second to register what’s happening before burying himself to the hilt inside your aching pussy. He pulls on your hair to lift you so that your body is almost completely pressed to his, except for the fact that you still have your shirt on and you hate it, and the fact that he’s completely dressed. With his hips still, one hand forcefully tugging on your hair as the other claws on your hips, thick length inside you, he still manages to bite hard on your shoulder, earning a loud scream from you as he growls in arousal. “Lucci! Please!” You’re desperate at this point, waiting for him to move, or for any possible stimulation he can give you.
“Don’t worry, kitten. This is just the beginning.”

and a little dedication as per always to demi (@wyattjohnston) for hosting and understanding that life sometimes happens.
Tumblr media
It was a typical opening morning for Lina Thorne. She’d woken up at 4:30am, showered and got herself ready for her shift. It was a quick morning stroll to her place when the city that never sleeps was a lot quieter than and the sun was still well below the horizon and wouldn’t be painting the skies until the first batch of cookies was in the oven. The woman couldn’t hide the yawn that left her mouth as her key slid into the lock and the front door to the store opened.
Lina never imagined that she be living the dream in New York City, especially since her dreams of staying out in the big city upon finishing her internship with her mentor never came true. Instead, she found herself dreaming of what life in the big city could be for her, working in a bakery out in Boston honing her skills and surprisingly making herself seemingly at home. She had been referred for the position by her mentor despite his own wants to let the young chef go. Working her way into management and securing respect and acknowledgement in the pastry world. All an up-and-coming pastry chef could ask for. It wasn’t until during a prep day that her boss mentioned a position that she was put into consideration for that would lead her back to the city of her dreams and training not only as a baker but rather the head baker of the newest branch of the bakery she’d happily called home for the last three years.
However, as stood in the commercial kitchen under bright cool lights, being able to say she ran the little bakery on the island, she couldn’t help but pat herself on the back. The nerves had initially consumed her and although her boss and the owner of the bakery had been around for training of staff, prepping for the opening and the grand opening itself. Almost as soon as the store was open and running within the week, she was then solely in charge. It was days like this, however, that she loved the most. Mornings where she was able to get back into the very reason why she got into baking in the first place. It was a time when she could take a moment to herself and just breathe. Especially on a day like today when she had a big order to fill out, for none other than one of her newest friends in the neighbourhood.
Lina’s eyes flitted towards the clock, keenly aware that it was fast approaching time to slip the decorated sign on the door and let customers know that they were open. She had since been joined by two baristas and two of the bakers who were due to take over from her once the store opened up whilst she got her deliveries done before working through paperwork. The shout from one of the aforementioned baristas shook her out of her haze as she iced the cookies in front of her. Calling out for a moment, she finished up the cookie she was decorating before placing the pining bag down and reaching for the dishtowel. 
Walking out into the front, she sent a smile to the two college students who were pulling down chairs and wiping tables before her eyes landed on a familiar head of hair tapping their fingers against her counter. Pulling a face of confusion, she moved towards him dropping the dishtowel.
“We’re not open yet.” She spoke before crossing her arms as he turned towards her. A smile that she could only describe as cheeky sat on his lips as he gave her a little shrug before leaning towards her.
“I was told to pick up a cookie deliver. Sydney’s orders,” He spoke with amusement filling his words, “There’s no saying no to that woman.”
“Mat, Syd’s order is set for delivery.” She wasn’t quite sure if she believed in what he was saying but it wasn’t in her nature to be unkind.
Lina had met Mat by chance and obviously all thanks to the woman currently in question. Sydney and a couple of the other wives and girlfriends of the Islanders had dropped by for a coffee date from which Sydney had made it her newest spot and was happily welcomed by the bakery’s staff as a regular. The more time Sydney spent in the establishment, the more opportunities she got to speak with young women and truly it was hard to say no to that woman. Before she knew it, she was being invited to dinners, and girls’ nights – she had even frequented hockey games which was something she hadn’t done since she was in culinary school. The late nights of the games just didn’t align with the early morning that was required of her at the store. It was one of the rare late nights she had free when she was invited by Sydney to a dinner party at the Martin residence and she had run into Mat. The story according to Syd was that Mat was only invited because of a recent break-up and them wanting him to be around people who loved him and wanted nothing but happiness for him. It, and Lina will quote, “is not a matchmaking setup” like other introductions to Sydney’s male friends of the same age as the baker had been.
The two had been seated next to one another and Mat’s glum mood had caught her attention. But not knowing anything of his current situation and maybe having had a little too much fun doing unplanned pres with the hostess with the mostess gifting her looser lips than normal, she had made a remark about his apparent brooding. A thought she assumed was just that but upon hearing the chatter quieten down a little, she realised her words most definitely left her mouth. Slowly lowering her glass to the table, she turned to apologise to the male beside her when the snort that he let out left her sorry and confused. It was all quickly replaced with intrigue when he shot back with a retort of his own, prompting the two adults into a comfortable and playful argument. It was that moment where instead of anticipating the presence of a certain blonde every day, she noticed a certain brunet make a place for himself at the table closest to the counter by the display case.
The baker had been warned against Matt’s teammates but none other than Matt himself. She’d gotten the idea that Matt was keenly aware of his wife’s ability to befriend people and more importantly take them under her wing, if how quickly she was welcomed into the family dynamic of Martins was anything to go by. Regarding dating, who was she to question a man who spent most of his time with said teammates, she doubted she’d ever even meet and if she ever did, so many faces pass through her doors, she wouldn’t even remember them. Which is why the hockey player who had chosen to make himself a fixture had initially garnered a little apprehension from her but without fail, he always came in and grabbed a coffee (and a cake on those days he chose to treat himself), his a seat and left when he was all done, never without a generous tip. He was kind enough to her staff and even kinder to the other regulars who were in at the same time as him, so she let him be. All business is good business, even though she knew for a fact there were coffee shops much closer to his apartment, the arena and even the practice facility. But who was she to complain.
She couldn’t remember when it started but she eventually started joining him when he’d visit in the mornings. Their chats were surprisingly something familiar, and comfortable, like talking to an old friend. They joked and teased but most of the time they just let go. It had been a couple weeks since they first met, and it wasn’t until the second week of them sharing a drink that he’d actually opened up about why he was looking so glum the night they had met and why he was hanging around her café. How he got her store details from Sydney and how he was drawn to the fact that she didn’t handle him as though he was fragile. How all he had wanted when it felt like someone he cared about deeply had uprooted him from his very foundation was normalcy. And that’s what Lina gave him. He was just another friend of a friend to her; he was just Mat to her. Not heartbroken Mat, not healing Mat, not even NHL superstar – Just Mat.
“Well, you’re not all that Mathew.” She had stated to which he could only respond with a soft ‘Exactly’. Ever since that moment, they had shared ample time with one another both in and outside of his coffee trips. And despite the time Mat has been spending within their four brick walls, it was still a surprise to see him at the store before opening.
“Can’t be, she sent me a frantic message at 7 telling me she needed a favour and who am I to fulfil my favourite uncle duties,” He explained before sending a wink her way, “Anything for Winnie.”
“Yeah, she lied to you,” She answered, giving him a double pat on the shoulder and a short cackle before moving over and opening the gate for the man, “One time only, might as well put you to work.”
The two of them made their way to the kitchen and while Mat went to wash his hands (not before Lina pointed a firm finger towards the sink to gently direct him to do so), Lina grabbed him a free apron and tossed it over his shoulder. Moving back to the station where the last of the cookies were waiting to be decorated and then packed away for delivery. 
“So, what can I do?” Mat slipped the apron over his head as he leaned over to observe the spread of baked goods before glancing back over at her. His confident smile slowly slipped off his face as she grabbed a piping bag and handed it over to him.
“I line, you flood.”
“Didn’t you train like three years for this?” Giving the bag a gentle squish and frowning when no icing flowed out.
“It’s basically impossible to mess it up, it’s like colour by numbers,” She explained softly as she grabbed a pair of scissors and snipped the end of the piping bag while adjusting his hand to make sure no icing was wasted. Pulling the cookies, she was previously working on in front of him all lined and ready to fill in front of him, before gesturing towards the piping bag and gesturing back to the cookies. “Match the flood colour to the line colour. Winnie does it all the time.”
“While I know that’s not really true, the dig hurts.” His free hand flew up to his chest in mock hurt before laughing and finally putting icing to cookie with an almost amusing amount of concentration.
“Get filling pretty boy, I will not have my little princess disappointed.”
The two of them worked almost like a well-oiled machine. It almost felt like she was back in culinary school, helping out with the younger years. They weren’t always perfect, but their hearts were always in the right place and if there was one thing she had learnt about Mat was that his heart was always in the right place. Almost to a fault. The whole bravado he put on was more like a mask. At least in front of her. He never had any walls up with her, but he definitely had worn the walls she constructed when she moved down. She always knew that those walls had to come down eventually, but she definitely didn’t expect it would come from a chance encounter with a random stranger. The girls and her staff had done their fair share and warming her up and making her feel at home but the first time she ever truly let herself be with no pretences and no fears of being judged and not fitting in was sitting in the store over a cup of coffee with Mat.
Before long, all the cookies, cupcakes, and the grand finale cake of it all were packed into the refrigerated bakery van ready for transportation to the Martins' house, where preparations, if the texts and calls she had received from Sydney were anything to go by, were well underway.  Despite Mat’s pleas to drive, Lina kept a firm hold of the keys until they were safely parked in their friends’ driveway. Grabbing her garment bag from its place hanging in the backseat, she walked up to the front door. Mat’s knuckles were knocking against the wooden door as Lina reached him up on the front step. His eyes were drawn to the bag in her hand, and he couldn’t help but bring up his curiosity.
“What’s with the change of attire?” 
“As if I’m going to spend the rest of the day in clothing that’s covered in powdered sugar, flour and dried batter and dough. Plus, if I’m going to be around kids with surprisingly sticky hands, I’m going to start with a fresh slate.” Her words were light and humorous and before Mat could even attempt a response, the door opened and a hand was wrapped around Lina’s wrist, pulling her into the house quickly.
“Thank goodness you’re here, I need your help.” The blonde in front of her pulled her to the side before aggressively motioning to Mat who was still pulling his shoes off. He almost comically pointed to himself before looking behind him only to be physically pulled into their little huddle a second later, “There’s so much left to sort out and both Alice and Winnie want pancakes. Help Matty and I out?”
“Don’t think I’m your guy, I’mma just –“ 
“Of course we can help, go do what you need to do,” Lina responded, grabbing onto Mat’s arm before he walked away. Sydney gave her a smile and with a blown kiss, she was gone. Once her friend was out of view, Lina’s hand swung up to Mat’s shoulder, “Really?”
“What?” He was greeted simply with a shaken head as she slipped her own shoes off along with her jacket before she walked into the kitchen. Pouting at the lack of an answer, he followed her quickly “What?”
Mat watched as she made quick work of pulling out the necessary ingredients and equipment for the pancakes. Pulling up one of the bar stools, he settled into a routine that was very much a typical evening for them. Since he frequented the store so much, Lina had decided that for all the real estate he was taking away from her other customers, he had to give something back and that was how he became her official taste tester. Once, every other month they’d get together and along with a constantly refilled glass of wine (courtesy of Mat), she’d bake all her experimental recipes and flavour pairings on him. It was one of the things that she loved about him. She loved simply baking with no pressure of it being commercially viable and nothing is better than baking for someone who is more than happy to consume. Even if it means she has to put up with the constant whining about how her goods are going to make a certain someone work harder at the gym.
The two worked in a comfortable quiet, Mat had put music on the Alexa quiet enough not to disturb anything happening in the other parts of the house. Mat was picking at the tester pancake before he hopped off the stool and made his way over to the cupboard and pulled out the Nutella and a spoon, before settling himself beside the baker who was humming along to the music.
“What happened to all that ‘I’m a disciplined athlete’ talk?”
“I’m just a man and you’re out here teasing me with all those amazing treats you made me decorate and now you expect me to not have at least one spoonful of chocolatey goodness?” Forcefully scooping up a spoonful of said spread, her pointed it in her direction for a moment before shoving it in his mouth, “You have too much faith in me.”
“Oh, now that is pushing it,” She said flipping one of the pastries onto a plate before turning to face him as she poured more batter on the hot plate, “Would you please just cut some strawberries and stuff?”
Although it wasn’t without complaints, sure enough, they were working side by side. Lina flipping pancakes and Matt cutting strawberries into quarters as they quietly spoke about their weeks, catching each other up on their respective TV shows. 
“You know this is what I miss the most.” Lina hummed in question at his statement, only slightly inclining her head in his direction, “I miss just having someone to talk to. To exist with. To be with.”
Silence flooded through the pair as her head turned towards him as he continued chopping the fruit, a bittersweet smile on his face. She took a deep breath as she felt a wave of emotion flood through her as his words processed in her head. Her hand was on the dial, turning the heat off and placing the spatula down. Her words came out as an unsteady breath as she turned fully towards him.  “Oh Mat…” 
“I know I’ve already talked you to death about … that situation but –“ Mat lowered the knife but still made no effort to look in her direction and shook his head slightly before huffing out a quiet laugh,  “It’s not just that you didn’t treat me like I could break but the time we spent together, the conversations we had. It almost felt like having someone again. Except this time, it was in the shape of friend – someone I can’t lose. Until I kept getting to know how wonderful you are.”
The words to comfort the man in front of her were proving difficult to come by so Lina simply stepped towards him and did the only thing she could think of, wrapped her arms around him. With one arm around his back and the other holding onto his arm, she laid her head on his arm and gave him a gentle squeeze.
“I’ve done the whole break up thing before I don’t know why this time it was difficult. I guess I got too comfortable with the wrong person, I don’t know but I know it was wrong now. I knew it was wrong the moment I had coffee with you for the first time because you made me feel more heard and all you were doing was entertaining a customer who wouldn’t leave your store.” She couldn’t help the laugh that left her, giving him a whole-body nudge and shaking her head as it pressed against his bicep muttering a soft ‘not true’.
Lina felt Mat’s head move to look towards her, moving her own to look up at him but keeping him in her soft hug. She would never admit it to him, considering the subconscious promise she made to herself upon finding out he was still working through his breakup. Their eyes met and he couldn’t help the smile that floated onto his lips until a little embarrassment covered his face,  “Sydney didn’t tell me to come and collect Win’s treats, I just hoped if I turned up, I wouldn’t have to share your attention with your customers.” 
“I’ve told you before Mathew you never have to be jealous of customers taking me away from you. I’ll always be there for you,” She muttered, pulling away before turning him until they were chest to chest, “I know we joke but I truly will always be there for you. Maybe covered in icing but always there.”
“And I you,” At his words, she wrapped her arms around his neck giving him a proper hug.
Inhaling deeply, she felt him do the same as his arms wrapped firmly around her trapping her between them, not that she was complaining. Her mind rushed through the past couple weeks of her life since meeting the man and she couldn’t believe just how close and open she had got with him. There were people she’d met during culinary school and knew for 4 years and worked with in Boston for 3 years who didn’t know as much about who she was outside of the kitchen as Mat did, and she’d barely known him for a couple months.
He had an interest in getting to know her and just wanted to sit and speak with her, whether or not he had his own ulterior motives for appreciating her company, they bonded. They spent a lot of time together doing nothing more than talking in their own little world. Lina would go as far as to say that she knew him and not just superficially but at a much deeper level and she could entirely feel what he was saying about how being with her feels because she felt the exact same way. Releasing him from her hold, she was suspended on her toes as Mat took a little longer to pull his arms away. She laughed softly, keeping her hands perched on his shoulders as she looked up at him with a soft and gentle smile.
“You bring me peace too,” She whispered, letting out a breath as she steeled herself to admit her truth to him, something that she’d become very comfortable with so what did she have to lose this time, “I love being your someone, because you’re my someone.”
If Mat was smiling before, the smile that took over her face at her words was rivalling the sun. A deep sigh left his mouth, and it was almost like all the tension that had filled his body since he started speaking had been loosened instantly. His shoulder dropped as the tension fell away and his hands found hers up on his shoulders, holding them tight between them. He went to speak but a shout of ‘LiLi’ filled both of their ears from the living room. Touching his forehead against hers, they both laughed gently as the shouts got closer and more frequently. Pushing back up on her toes, Lina pressed a firm kiss to his cheek before pulling away. Giving him one last peck on the cheek before she properly pulled away.
“Later?” He simply smiled at her question as the sound of small footfalls got closer.
“Later.”

A Private Affair [Husband!Miguel]
Tumblr media
Hobie and Pavitr are convinced you and Miguel have a loveless marriage. Gwen insists they just don’t watch you two hard enough.
Husband!Miguel x Wife!Reader (just fluffy and playful miguel being flirty w u <333)
“What do they even talk about?” Pavitr quipped once as the rest of the team left the room with him.
While opposites attracted, you and Miguel carried a similar energy: serious and stern. Miguel was grumpier and prone to losing his cool compared to you, who was known for your aloof attitude right after being known for being Mrs. O’Hara.
“No clue,” Hobie grunted as he crossed a threshold past a number of anomalies, “might be a loveless marriage. Never seen ‘em hug or kiss like couples do.”
Gwen rolled her eyes and scoffed, “Of course you boys don’t see the subtlety of it.” The boys paused before huffing at the suggestion that their gender of all things obscured them to any nuance between you two: you never really touched, never dwelled on conversations beyond missions in front of them, and were never affectionate. It was just like seeing two coworkers and no more than that.
“What subtlety?” they inquired in unison, matching Gwen’s storter strides as they went toward the cafeteria.
“Just watch them more. Harder next time.”
-
“Earth-349’s anomaly is clear. Canon event still occurred at proper time and Earth-56’s anomaly is just awaiting transport. Went smoothly,” you reported, hands across your chest as you looked up at Miguel. His eyes weren’t on you though, just the screen. You weren’t missing the way he kept glancing though.
“Something on my face?”
“Nothing,” Miguel coughed, that shy way he did when he wanted to be close to you but couldn’t be. Smiles are saved for private, the facade of professionalism thinly veiling the tension between you two: you both just really wanted to go back home and get some rest, be close again.
It’s so hard to not just sink into his arms and coo at him like a cute puppy and coddle him with kisses as his wife but it generally was agreed upon to just be as controlled around each other as possible. It was destined to go downhill if you both got too touchy feely; he’d look like a lovesick fool instead of a leader and the same applied to you. Work is work and home is home.
“You keep looking at me though.”
“I can’t look at you?”
“You can if I have something on my face,” you retort with the smallest smile in the word - the corners of your lips tense as they slightly rose. He was funny in his shy nature like you weren’t married for years. His love was so cat-like, having to let him be skittish before he leaned into you.
“Then you do have something on your face,” he replies typing absentmindedly.
“I do?” you ask, genuinely worried you’d been clambering around with food on your face as a leader in the medical center.
“Yeah,” he said, “you’ve got pretty all over it.”
A slightly bigger smile. A professional one. “You got empanada on yours.”
He stands straight. “Really?”
“No,” you chuckle, “but you thought you did for a second huh?”
-
The way you stand by each other leaves room for Jesus, Hobie thinks. Miguel has to crane his neck down to look at you and you need to crane your neck up. The banter on the height difference is barely out of earshot when he hears you two as he stands outside of Miguel’s office: your voices all friendly and calm.
“Can’t you sit when I talk to you? You’re hurting my neck, Miguel,” you start, foot nudging the rolling chair to him.
“You’re hurting my eyes,” Miguel shot back quickly as he grabbed the back of the chair rolling at him.
“Calling me ugly now?” you snort with an eye roll, arms crossing in that closed off pose even with just your husband.
He narrows his eyes, that cheeky smile, “No. Just hurts to look at the sun, y’know?”
Hobie thinks he’ll throw up.
-
Gwen and Pavitr had seen you in the medical bay, Miguel sitting in a chair by your desk with some stitches in his forehead. Gwen and Pavitr only really needed a dash of hydrogen peroxide but you recommended they stay seated and drink water before they headed out. It’s just adjacent to your desk, separated by the thin hospital curtain - thin enough to hear you. Gwen’s fingers pressed to her lips as Pavitr went to speak (as he always did) and she gestured to the direction where your desk was.
You and Miguel were whispering… just loud enough for them to make out what you both were saying.
“You’re getting real old… coming in here with that gash,” you murmur, “swing faster. I never wanna see you bloody again.”
“Thought you said you wanted to grow old with me. Swinging slow so the arthritis doesn’t kill me,” he scoffed shortly.
“Hysterical,” you snip back in a low voice before pausing and saying, “but I just hate to see you hurt. Even if I get to see you in my unit.”
The murmurs stop as some shuffling is heard, the sound of little peppering kisses to his hair barely audible. “I just need a magic kiss and I feel better though. Get right out of your hair…” he chuckles lowly.
They can’t see you smiling.
“I won’t give you one then,” you start, “just cause I want to take care of my husband a little longer.” The little giggles and cooing from across the barrier are just a private moment overheard but it does enough.
Hobie and Pavitr just fake gag behind your backs now when they see your hands or shoulders brush against each other. It’s the little things of a marriage that are the most important, at work or at home.

MY MAN! ft rindou haitani ( ✮ )
Tumblr media Tumblr media
synopsis: he just loves it when you take full control of the situation.
warning: languages
nana's note: HEYYY!!! How're you guys doing? It's been months and I missed you all so much! I've been busy with studies and exams these couple of months I could not find any time to write :(( As a special, sorry gift, I'm writing this for you guys. tell me if there's anything I should explicitly mention if I happen to forget any and happy reading mwahh!
Tumblr media
The room packs of men and women, sweats drenching and drunk with heavy alcoholic drinks. The spacious room is dimmed-light but illuminated with red, purple, and blue hues.
You make your way inside the hall strutting to the bar and take a seat as you order yourself a drink. You were enjoying yourself, sipping the hard drink as you look around for familiar faces.
You could make out familiar faces of a certain lizard-looking guy and the pink-haired. Sanzu smirks smugly at you as he skips to you enthusiastically.
"'Fuck is goin' on with you?" Your face confronts in disgust at the stinging smells of alcohol on him "You smell so bad asshole, get away from me." He laughs at your insult, openly taking a seat beside "Where ya' man at?" You roll your eyes at him "You guys are the one with him the whole day, why are you asking me?"
Kokonoi abruptly interrupts "He's with Ran. Mikey ordered them to handle a meeting somewhere. Be back in a while." You absentmindedly hum at the information.
After some time, the two left somewhere, one going to handle the club's money and the other to mess around with the rest of the lingering prostitutes. A woman seemingly in her mid twenty walks toward you, chest and head standing contemptuously. Her dead curly blonde wig sways from behind as she takes a seat beside you. She ordered herself a drink and shamelessly told the bartender to put it under your bill.
"Know your place, the fuck you think you are doin'?" Her fake lashes battle on you "Whoops, sorry. Anyway, your name is Y/n, right? You are RinRin's girlfriend, yes?" Your left eye subtly twitches in annoyance at the used nickname.
"What is it to you?" She giggles, tucking a strand of her to the back of her ear "Nothing just... I didn't expect you. I mean for a guy like him to settle down for a woman like you? It doesn't make sense at all. Unlike me, a woman of a high fashion sense and ladylike. I could see why he came crawling to me every night. Oh whoops, slipped out." Your face raging with fire and a comical mark appears on the side of your temple.
"What a low-life bitch. Self-proclaiming my boyfriend to be crawling to you? Do you realize how pathetic you sounded? Rindou would never settle down for a woman that sells their body for money like you. You can drag your plastic ass outta my face, hoe." You give her one last glance before you stand up and left the scene.
You were walking to a vacant place when all of a sudden, you were pulled to a nearby secluded place near the restroom. You almost twist the doer's hand but stopped at the familiar tattoo design.
Rindou stood before you, hair chiseled, collared tee undone almost all the way you could see his bare chest and stench in dried blood. But that's not what concerns you, his smug smirk does. "The fuck happened to you? You got into a fight during the meeting or sum'?" He shakes his head, eyes still staring down at you "Me and Ran got ambushed by some low-level organization. Nothing we couldn't handle but what's more is how you shut that woman just a few minutes ago."
You scoff, hand folded in a sassing manner "I still hadn't asked you whether what she said is true or not, right? I can't just blandly dismiss her. Don't you feel the need, to be honest and tell me whether what she said is true or not, RinRin?" He groans at you, eyes moving from the woman from earlier than you "You are seriously considering believing her, come on-" His sentence gets cut off when you punch him in the gut making him grunt in pain.
"Ouch, fine, fine." He smirks again, leaning closer to you "Of course not, do you think I would consider her? Be honest, I'd do better-"
You glare at him, eyes as if challenging him to further speak. Rindou mentally drench in sweats as he coughs "Fine, sorry." Unlike his words, the smirk didn't flatter but instead grew intense.
"I just love it when you are like this." He chuckles when he notices you roll your eyes out of annoyance. "We better leave... Where's Ran?" He look around, shrugging.
"Making babies, maybe?" You snort, giving your boyfriend a short hug and a small laugh before you drag him out of the club. Rindou, however, turns back once in a while to look at a woman and before you two could disappear from her sight, Rindou gives her his majestic middle finger.

HOLD ME.
— pairing ; kaneki ken x human!gn!reader
— summary ; small spoon kaneki just wants to feel safe and comforted in your arms.
— cw ; fluff, comfort, kaneki is the tiniest small spoon, est. relationship, more fluffiest fluffy fluff, okay maybe a lil angst
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you never knew when kaneki would return.
you never knew if kaneki would return.
sometimes he vanished for days on end, weeks, even. he always told you not to worry, that he was fine and that he would come back eventually. yeah, you'd heard that before, and suddenly your lover came back as a ghoul after leaving you worried for weeks. adapting to said change had cost you so much, and his habit of disappearing got so much worse.
but he was right about one thing; he always came back.
sometimes he returned and he was genuinely fine. you didn't want to know what he had been up to, but he didn't seem too damaged by it – mentally and physically.
sometimes he returned and pretended to be okay. you always saw right through him when this happened. yet, no matter how hard you would pry, he wouldn't open up.
sometimes it was barely even kaneki who returned, as the empty shell of the boy you loved showed up on your doorstep in the ungodliest hours of the night. whether his injuries were physical or mental, he couldn't even begin to pretend he was fine, tears staining his cheeks as he stumbled over to you.
tonight prove itself to be the latter.
it had been three weeks since you had last heard from your beloved ghoul, and you had given up to wait for him every night before you went to sleep. it was pointless, for you could never tell when he would come back.
hence, you went to sleep like you normally did tonight, barely thinking about kaneki's absense as you had gotten used to it at this point. there was absolutely nothing out of the ordinary as you crawled under your duvets and went to sleep, until a sudden sound shook you from slumber. you sat disoriented for a moment, until you recognized the sound of your window creaking open. hope filled your entire being, and you were wide awake in an instant. kicking off your blankets, you went to the window and opened the blinds to make his entrance a little easier.
but the sight that greeted you wrenched your heart.
physically he seemed fine, skillfully jumping through the windowsil and landing in your bedroom with ease. however, when you saw his face, even in the darkness, the true depth of last weeks' scars became apparent. you didn't know what he had gone through, as he didn't like to talk about it, but it was obvious that it broke him.
"kaneki," you whispered, stumbling backward a little when the half-ghoul flung his arms around you in utter despair. he was tearing at the seams, finally breaking now that he was safe in your arms.
he was crying, tears trickling down his face and staining the fabric of the t-shirt you wore. sobs racked his body, shaking the broken boy to a point where it was getting hard for him to breathe properly. you had seen this many times before, yet it still broke your heart every time it happened.
"kaneki, love," you repeated, a little firmer this time. you peeled his ridid body off of yours for a moment to look at him properly. quickly scanning his features for any injuries, your eyes ran up and down his being. much to your relief, nothing caught your eye and you quickly hugged him tightly again.
you didn't ask questions, you didn't demand answers. you were pretty sure kaneki would answer whatever you asked, but you didn't want to know about his ghoul-ish business – that likely involved human consumption and other horrors. yes, you had accepted your lover's half-ghoul side, but that didn't mean you wanted all the ins and outs of his new life.
ignorance was bliss.
however, you still cared about him deeply, and seeing kaneki completely miserable like that made an iron hand clasp your heart, squeezing tightly until it was getting hard to breathe.
"you're with me, kaneki," you spoke softly into his ear. "you are safe and no one is coming here to harm you."
now it was kaneki who looked at you through the tears that clung to his lashes. the pain in his eyes was obvious, but he still cared about you more than he cared about himself.
"i woke you, didn't i?" he muttered, voice already a little hoarse from the sobs that hurt his throat.
"yes, but i'm glad you did," you countered gently. "you don't have to suffer on your own. i am here for you, love."
"mhm," kaneki hummed, melting into your touch. his breathing was labored, and you could tell his throat was being squeezed by unkempt emotions.
"c'mere," you urged softly, removing yourself from the embrace to pull him over towards your bed.
the half-ghoul looked like a kicked puppy when you broke the hug, but as soon as he understood your intentions he came with you obediently. his motions were ridig with tension, and he was way too pliant for your liking. whatever happened in the time he was away, it seriously messed with him.
you sat down on the edge of your bed, pulling him with you. the mattress dipped underneath your combined weight, and you were quick to lay down and get comfortable. lifting the covers invitingly, you asked for kaneki to join you in bed – which he gladly did.
he shuffled closer to you until his back was tightly pressed against your chest, and he released a deep breath when your arms wrapped around him from behind. he made himself as small as possible, trying to inch even closer to you – though it was physically impossible. the ghoul fit so perfectly against you, as if you were two pieces meant to mesh together.
kaneki's sole purpose was to survive, there was barely any room for some leeway. he always had to be on guard, putting up a tough act and not show any weakness. that was his life.
only when he was with you, he could let his inner battles roam freely. only when he was with you, he could be himself. only when he was with you, he could be small and safe.
your chin rested atop his head – that was how small he had made himself. he was almost completely quiet now, and you assumed his tears had ceased. he was breathing normally; kaneki had calmed down for a big part already, the magic of your presence, your touch, your soothing voice that was filled with love towards him.
kaneki was a monstruous humanoid, commiting atrocities left and right, ending the lives of innocent people in order to keep himself alive, leaving a trail of bloodshed and demise. it uses to be hard to look past that, but you had soon realized it had never been his choice. life could be cruel to some, and kaneki was one of its victims. cursed to rely on human flesh to survive, no matter how much he didn't want to.
acceptance would be an overstatement. you'd never approve of his lifestyle, no matter how much it was beyond his power. but you knew you had to live with it if you wanted to live with your lover.
it was an easy choice.
the boy in your arms had fallen asleep, finally finding peace. you pressed a kiss to the top of his head, pale strands of hair tickling your skin. you'd always be his safe haven, you would try not to judge him for his foul actions, you'd shower him with love and kindness. kaneki might have been a monster, the monsters and demons that pestered his mind were far worse.
but he was safe with you, he was loved by you, and he knew. that's why he always came back. you were his everything in a world that gave him nothing but misery. you were his remedy when the world tore him down once more.
kaneki always acted tough, but he showed you who he really was; a boy, way too troubled for his age, bent down by the weight of the harsh world he got caught up in, a broken soul who just needed a little love.
and you'd give it to him, over and over again.
