Dark times
Tumblr media
Heyo, For this story, Me and my bestie @callofdudes came up with this storyline soon after the zombie trailer was released. So I decided to grace the world with our story. Warning, Angst. Blood and gore. Word count:1.3k
The news reported that there was a new virus on the horizon. Everyone was to be cautious and resilient. But you all didn't know the extent of how bad the virus would be. This virus turned everyone into living corpses within a few seconds. Even though you were all safe on the base. The measurements to keep everyone safe were very extreme.
No one was allowed outside, Everyone was checked for symptoms every day and you had to wash your clothes every day as well. No groups of 10 people to be together. Thankfully you five don't count as a large group. Thank goodness.
"This is fucking nuts" You looked outside, You just wanted everything to go back to normal.
"I didn't think it would come to this." Price was standing next to you, looking out at the base once full now dead quiet as everyone was forced into their buildings.
This made you very sad, You were worried for your friends and family. Were they ok ?? Were they safe and sound ??, You couldn't find out as the cell service has been taken down.
Even though you had each other, There were certain challenges. Like today, you found that you were all running low on food. The ration supply drying up quicker than you all thought.
"Shit... This is bad"
Johnny pouted, digging back into his chip packet. Out again.
"Ok... I know it's risky, but we need to go out"
Everyone went quiet, Looking at each other expecting an answer, Price knew this would be very risky. He wanted to make sure you were all safe, But to be safe. You all needed food.
"It is risky, But we can't run out of food." Simon spoke up.
"Ok... Simon and I will go out, You guys stay back at base ok ??"
The three looked immensely worried. They didn't want anything to happen to you both, But right now they were running out of options.
"Ok... Be safe, Try and contact us if you get into trouble." Price said.
"Got it"
Before you left. Gaz and johnny both brought you into a tight group hug.
"Be safe you guys" Johnny said.
"We'll be back, and with food." Simon patted his back.
You and Simon then geared up, Putting on as many armour plates as possible and grabbing your rifles and other necessities. Before then you both began your mission to the nearby grocery store. Walking the dead streets, You saw all the havoc that was there on the day the world as you knew it descended into chaos. cars crashed into one another, Blood ridden on the streets, and even corpses.
"Let's hope we can grab whatever we can and then hightail it back to base sergeant."
"Agreed"
You knew the roads into the city and around the place in the back of your head. But it felt so much more ominous now. It was actually terrifying.
Once you reached the store, You found that the doors were barricaded. Now you could just break them, but it would cause severe consequences for you and simon.
"We need to find another way in"
Simon looked around for a potential way in and then found the air vents.
"Over there"
He then went over and began unscrewing the vent lid gently.
"It's gonna be a tight squeeze for you"
"I'll manage"
Being the brick shithouse Simon was, It would be slightly impossible, but not impossible at the same time. The two then squeezed in, shifting through the hatch inside the supermarket. Simon unscrewed the lid and you both hopped down inside.
"Score 1 for the 141" You turned on your flashlight and began looking around.
"Let's see what we can find"
You both walked from aisle to aisle, grabbing as much as you could. Fruit and Veg were a no-go as they were now rotten. Dairy and meat were a big no-no. Simon gagged when he smelt the off-products. Quickly avoiding it.
"Oh fuck that's foul !!" You pinched your nose.
"Fucking rancid" He said, pinching his nose as well.
Going down another aisle, you were lucky enough to find chips and things for Johnny and Gaz.
"Today is your lucky day guys." You began to bag them up.
Simon found some drinks that didn't need to be refrigerated, some packs of cigars behind the counter and such. "Covering all bases.."
But as they continued packing y/n heard a noise which cause them to stand still.
"Shhh"
Simon froze, listening to the silence. Needing to hear it again, His hand instinctively reaching back for his gun, slowly.
The noise eventually came back, a low growl. You weren't alone. Simon put down his bag and gripped his rifle, motioning you over to him.
"Get behind me" He whispered.
You did so, watching behind with your switchblade ready in hand. Hearing the noise get closer and closer. There it was, an infected. It's jaw unattached. Blood dripping with it's skin decomposing and eyes white. Shuffling slowly.
Simone raised his gun seeing how disgusting it looked, It made your skin crawl. Shooting it in the head. It popped open easily like a ripe watermelon, Blood splattering everywhere.
"Gross"
"Watch your step... I doubt you want it on your boot"
Walking over the corpses, the two then continued one with looking for food.
"Ok I think we've got enough"
"Then we get back out of here"
Simon wouldn't say it but being out here put him on edge, He wanted you to be safe... He wouldn't know what to do if his best friend got infected. The two then crawled back out of the vent with the food in hand. Only to be found surrounded by infected as they heard Simon's gunshot.
"Shit"
The two then grabbed your rifles and opened fire on the zombies, mowing down as much as you could. But you both were caught in a rock and a hard place when you realised you were running low on ammo.
'Shit, I'm running low." You loaded in your last magazine.
"You got any grenades ??"
Simon checked his belt handing one to you.
"Two, that's all I got"
"Then let's make it count"
Nodding, You both pulled the pins and threw them, They blew up, sending any zombie caught in the blast backwards, After the dust cleared. You both were confident that you got them all.
"Come on, Let's get the bloody hell out of here" He urged you forward.
You then spotted an untouched car, Bingo your ticket out of here. Gently unlocking it and hotwiring it, you managed to start it up. and it had some good amount of fuel left.
"Simon, Hop in"
He nodded, placing the food in the backseat and you both heading back to the base.
Johnny stared out at the window, Hoping you two would return safe and sound. The anxiety creeping in on him of the worst. He didn't want anything to happen to his friends. His best friends to be exact. And then he saw a car at the front, The doors opening to reveal you two.
"Their back !!" He alerted Gaz and Price.
"They are ??" Gaz got up and followed him.
As soon as you two entered back inside, Johnny hugged you both. "Oh thank heaven's bells, you're back !! Are you two okay??, you were gone a little while, I- we were worried"
"We got surrounded... But we're ok" You softly smiled at him"
Johnny sighed in relief, then spotting the bags and perked up. "wow, what did you two find ??"
You all gathered around the table and placed the food of what you could find. "The only food we can't have anymore is dairy and fruit and veg."
"It's all we need, thank you, you two" Price softly smiled. Happy that his soldiers... his kiddos were back safe and sound.
He grabbed one of the cold containers of food and opened it up, still good. this would be dinner, he hoped you would all survive, he knew you would. him and his team, You all went through worse. This would be no different.

Prettybusy Updates/promises for the future. Year 2024
I literally took this from their website so. This was posted today: 10/01/2024.
Hello, this is Prettybusy.
Since the release of <What in Hell is Bad?>, many people have found Hell to support us and tell us what could be improved.
We are most apologetic that we cannot reply to all the voices.
But even when we weren't able to respond to everything, we still read every email, made sure we didn't miss anything,
and kept the production crew together for ongoing discussions.
We would like to apply many new things to Hell, but here's our first response to your voices,
summarizing what we can realistically expect to see in 2024.
More info about content, pricing and improvement of environment under the cut.
[Addition of contents]
Life goes on forever.
To those of you who come to find <What in Hell is Bad?>, we hope to be with you for new stories and new events.
So, here are some new content that we promise to add.
First
The addition of a new main story - Chapter 5 - (within January)
Tumblr media
Hell's next story will be added.
What will be added in the new main story are main story episodes including battles, Minhyeok's story, and Hell's chatrooms.
We aim to add new chapters once every 3 months.
Second
The release of the minigame <Catch Minhyeok's Boxers> (within January)
Minhyeok's boxers have flown away in the wind! It is a game where you catch boxers floating in the sky with Ppyong who is armed with shibari.
To satisfy your desire to earn paid currency, we will add a minigame that allows you to randomly farm items alongside light gaming.
You can obtain not only Lesser Keys and Greater Keys, but also Solomon's Seals if you're lucky(!)
Third
The addition of new daily chats (within February)
The interest of all devils which you can see once a day. Daily chats will be added.
We are aiming to add daily chats steadily once every 2 months.
Fourth
The addition of the Friends system(within March)
Tumblr media
You are not alone now...!
Adding friends gives you the ability to earn additional items, see what characters your friends have that you don't, and show your profile to other friends.
Fifth
The addition of Realm of the Seraphim(within March)
Tumblr media
The closed <Realm of the Seraphim> of the Dark Sanctuary will be opened.
You can now enter Gabriel, Raphael, and Michael's realms to fight them.Similar to the Nightmare Dungeon, you can only face them if you fulfill the conditions, and while it will be a scarier battle, you will be rewarded with better items.
What's unusual about this is that you won't exchange items through an exchange, but rather you get the
items you loot from their realms immediately after the battle.
Sixth
The addition of a birthday system(within April)
Tumblr media
The devils understood the human world's <celebration of birthdays>.
Now, the devils will congratulate the day you were born, the most unusual being in Hell.
Devils who are on good terms with you will contact you, and also prepare presents with their hearts.
Seventh
The addition of decorating the lobby icon(within May)
The production crew also enjoy decorating everything with the devils we love.
Like on Halloween, the function to decorate the lobby icon with a single devil's theme will be added.
The icon packages for all devils won't be there from the start, but the icons of all devils will definitely be added.
Eighth
The addition of line stickers(once registration is complete)
Tumblr media
We are preparing line stickers of each devil version.
First off, Ppyong's stickers are ready and we are getting ready to register. It is not up to us to decide whether it will be able to register so we can't give you an exact timeline, but barring any major issues, you should be able to see them in the first half of the year. We will also be creating a number of opportunities for you to join the devils outside of the game this year.
[Pricing system reform]
Once again, we sincerely thank you for finding Hell despite its many shortcomings.
We will continue to improve the parts that inconvenience you in Hell's environments you experience.
So, here is our promise of 2024 to make your experience more comfortable.
First
The function to 'select' when summoning an L grade character (within February)
Tumblr media
We confirmed that you have been working hard to get your hands on L grade devils, and we have seen how
frustrating it can be when you have reached your number of guaranteed acquisition but can't get the devil you want more.
Therefore, the production crew discussed this to be the improvement that should be made first.
Now when L grade characters are newly released, you can select the character you want once you
reach the number of guaranteed acquisition.
Moreover, we sincerely understand and apologize for the frustration of those who didn't get their limited characters.
In the interest of equity, we can't directly give you the angels you didn't get, but we have added a system to make it
easier to get Solomon's Seals with the promise of a definitive reprint of the angel characters.
Second
Monthly acquisition of Solomon's Seals (within February)
We have confirmed that people who play the game 100% for free don't have the opportunity to get an L grade character, and that makes them feel a great sense of loss.
We have made all of our stories available for free for those who want to play for free, but we empathize that the devils, especially the touchable ones, tempt you so strongly that it is difficult to resist.
Therefore, players who play for free can also obtain 500 Seals per month through various activities such as quests and attendance.
Third
Pancake Shop renewal (within March)
We have received a lot of feedback about the efficiency of the Pancake Shop and how getting S grade characters and artifacts with pancakes just isn't that much fun.
Also for 100% free-to-players, one of the largest opinions was to to give them the opportunity to
earn L grade characters when they obtain duplicate L grade and S grade characters, even if it costs much currency.
While it is impossible for us to listen to 100% of the feedback we receive, we have been working hard to make sure we are listening to you as much as possible, which is why we are announcing a complete renewal of the
Pancake system and prepare the opportunity to obtain L grade characters.
(1) The Pancake Shop will now be upgraded to the Nightmare Pancake Shop, and free-to-play players will now be able to obtain L grade characters through the Nightmare Pancake Shop.
With the addition of the Nightmare Dungeon and the Realm of the Seraphim, you will need to develop a variety of characters. Gold and Tomes will be much more important, and you will need to be more efficient with limited action power.
As a result, duplicate acquisition of B/A/A+ grade characters will now grant Gold and Tomes, and duplicate acquisition of S grade and L grade characters will grant <Nightmare Pancakes>.
(2) <Nightmare Pancakes> will be used in purchasing goods in the newly opening <Nightmare Pancake Shop>.
In the Nightmare Pancake Shop, you can purchase a monthly rotation of <L grade characters> and <L grade character artifacts>, <exclusive stickers to decorate your chat room profile>, <in-game icon design packages>, and
<Solomon's Tears>.
(Through fun planning, we will continue to add novel and adorable goods.)
(3) The <Pancakes> you already own can be used to purchase items from the existing Pancake Shop, or exchanged for <Nightmare Pancakes> - currency that can be used in the Nightmare Pancake Shop. (*Not at a 1 to 1 ratio.)
This is an upgraded version of the Pancake Shop that we have been working hard to continuously bring you as many opportunities as we can.
Not all functions are immortal, and we are planning to listen to many opinions again after implementing the shop.
Through the renewal of the Pancake Shop, we hope you obtain more efficiency and opportunities.
Fourth
Adjustment of the price of the Nightmare Pass (within March)
The Nightmare Pass was designed to give players a chance to get a guaranteed L grade character and a lot of paid items for a fraction of the cost.
However, there were various opinions ranging from the Pass being cheap to too expensive due to exchange rate
differences between countries (in some cases due to the dual conditions of exchange rate and app store).
One thing we know for sure is that most players had a blast.
We want you to enjoy your visit to Hell, so we have decided to price the Nightmare Pass a little lower than it is now, taking into account currency differences between countries.
We will announce the exact price again.
However, we respectfully ask for your kind understanding that it takes a lot of time and effort to bring
L grade characters to you, including the artwork, Live2D, stories, comics, and voice acting, so we can't just make them too cheap.
[Improvement of environment]
First
Adjustment of staging time of Ultimates (within February)
While we wanted to maximize the spectacle of combat through fancy staging, we found that the pacing of
combat can be a bit sluggish for those who are already used to staging.
The scenes in which the characters' faces appear will be reduced to 1/2.
Second
Enjoying event story illustrations (within March)
Tumblr media
We accept wholeheartedly the feedback that after watching an event story, it is very sad not to be able to see the illustrations after the event story period.
You can now rewatch the illustrations you enjoy in the future event stories you meet in the existing album.
Third
Addition of a Boss skill window (within March)
Tumblr media
We hear your feedback that when a boss angel appears, it is hard to respond because you don't know what skill they use.
Boss angels will now have skill icons next to the angels, and you can tap on it to see the skill they use.
However, there are bosses that intentionally do not expose their skill icons in some places for the sake of difficulty.
Fourth
Faster announcements
We recognize that announcements about new character additions and release schedules do not give you enough time to prepare, or even make you feel anxious.
To explain the situation so far, the <evaluation> takes a very long time unlike other games, and it is very difficult to confirm the release date.
This is because even if we announce our release date well in advance by the standards of other games, 2-3 weeks can easily pass if we get rejected only a few times.
But this is not a situation that our players should have to deal with, and it is something we must solve.
For a safe announcement, we are planning to update only the main story and minigame in January without releasing new sub stories, new S grade characters or L grade characters.
We will be pulling about two months' worth of evaluation for new characters that are tied to evaluation, so we'll be able to give you a stable schedule ahead of time once we have the results of the evaluation.
We realize that not releasing new characters can be boring for our users. But if you could understand that this was a very difficult decision for us to make, we'll be working harder in the month of January to ensure that we're able to give you stable announcements.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for finding Hell once again.
We would like to say that although we do have many shortcomings, but we never made decisions to give you bad experiences.
And that we'll never stop, and that we'll continue to think and listen every day to keep things moving in the right direction.
We wish we could use large staff to make faster improvements and respond to more voices in real time, but we are deeply sorry and saddened that we can't.
We will repay your love with a production crew that will answer your questions as quickly as we can.
You are the most valuable and appreciated part of the production crew's experience.
Though it may be slow, Hell will not stop. It will become more experienced and faster.
Thank you always.

The itch for destruction, the hands of repression and my theories on AFO's involvement in Shigaraki Tomura / Tenko Shimura's past:
For all I prefer to interpret the hands around Tomura as AFO's way to control his grief and turn it into a weapon, there's another option to it.
According to the canon, Tomura was using the hands to keep himself in check*. Supposing that what AFO said is true and Tomura's itching is his urge to destroy*, then he was using the hands to remind himself of what he did to his family and why he couldn't let himself be left unchecked*.
Image for the orange text:
AFO, talking to Tomura:
" You carry an urge for destruction that you yourself can't even control. That itch is simply your body letting you know that your urge can't be contained any longer. "
Tumblr media
Image for the green text:
AFO, talking to Doc Garaki:
" He wears the hands of his family as if he's restraining himself, reproaching himself. With his memories locked away, all that's left are residual emotions. He's insecure. Just look at him. He doesn't even realize he's holding back when he's using his quirk. "
Tumblr media
Those panels raise several questions.
For example, we already know how suspicious it is that AFO was the one able to find Tenko. Chances are that he had been observing the Shimuras all that time, but then why didn't he kill them before? What was he waiting for?
Another suspicious thing is that the hands of the Shimura were in perfect condition.* Tenko killed them at night. He says he flew from his house, he ran away. *
No one, absolutely no one showed up.
It happened in seconds, of course. The backyard probably looked like a war zone or something.*
Images for the red text:
He decayed the house completely, to the point it was split in two when he left. He decayed the sidewalk in front of his house and if you look closely, the house next to the Shimuras too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The question is: how was AFO able to search within that disaster for each individual hand of the Shimura family members before anyone could get there to clean it up? Those hands looked almost fresh, as sick as it sounds.*
You're telling me that AFO found Tomura— who was not speaking between, he went mute for a while after what happened that night— and he "coincidentally" found a way to get the hands of the Shimuras like it was nothing?*
My theory is that AFO manipulated Tenko more than we are allowed to know up until now.
Image for the blue text:
Doc Garaki talking to Tomura:
" These are your family members' remains. "
Tumblr media
Did the police ever get there? To erase Tenko's existence just like that means that AFO had to either pretend Tenko died too or somehow he managed to erase the Shimuras altogether. What was said to Tenko and Hana's school? Or Kotaro's workplace? To the neighbors?
Were there any neighbors even? A house gets demolished at night with people screaming and no one even panics thinking that a villain can be attacking them?
Of course AFO had cops on his side. It's just a bit insane to me to think it worked out like clockwork just by accident.
Theory aside, it makes sense that the memory of his family kept Tenko anchored to his morals and the rights and wrongs of society.* He was a good kid, he wanted to be a hero to help people. He is also the type to hate injustice to the point he can't shut up about it. No matter how many times his dad punished him for following the hero ideals, he kept trying.
(I wish I could add more than 10 pics, but you should absolutely re-read My Villain Academia and pay attention to Tomura's general hesitation when it comes to hurting people— before AFO).
Like I said, there are several moments of Tenko avoiding his "destructive" side and holding the justice he knew from his childhood close to his heart.*
If what AFO says is true, then he repressed his memories in order to keep his quirk from being too aggressive towards others.* It was a defense mechanism that tells us that Tenko didn't want to hurt people, because he was fighting the urge to do so.* He was even becoming self-destructive in order to contain his urges.*
Images for the pink texts:
Panels show Tenko wondering on a street with his hands clasped together to avoid touching anything and therefore decaying it.
Tumblr media
AFO talking to Tomura:
" What is that you want to do? "
Tomura talking to AFO:
" ... The two punks that hit me earlier... I want to kill them. "
Tumblr media
AFO talking to Tomura:
" Aaah, poor child. What are you so afraid of? Just follow your heart. "
( notice that the encounter of Tenko and the two punks happens BEFORE Tenko had the hold amoral combo with AFO.
The panels show how Tenko almost reaches to decay the people who just hurt him, but he forces himself to back down, close his hand in a loose fist and leave it at that).
Tumblr media
Like you could notice in the last image, it was AFO who gave Tenko the impression that he could give in to the urge to kill and destroy because it was okay.* Previous to that moment, Tenko was full of hatred. There are several panels of Tenko saying "I hate them all " the day he got his quirk and the Shimuras died. The difference is that he only killed the Shimuras because he couldn't even control his quirk and he killed Kotaro in particular with purpose, but while he was practically blind with the rush of all that was happening.
Never before Tenko killed someone premeditated. Never before he planned it.
When AFO gave Tomura the impression that the itching was because he wanted to destroy* and it was okay to destroy to get rid of the itch*, that's when it all went to hell.
It's a dangerous thing to tell an impressionable 5 years old who just got out of an abusive home in the most traumatic fashion. Especially because Tomura's hatred got mixed with the guilt over the way he killed his family. He was convinced that the fact no hero saved him was justice for what he did. He was throwing up over it. He ran away from home, scared because he was the culprit. He was 5 years old, I must remind you all.
AFO falsely liberated Tenko from his guilt by giving him the freedom to destroy*. It was clearly not the solution because Tomura's itch would only go away temporarily after destroying whatever was annoying him.
Listen, we all want to destroy things that annoy us on a daily basis. The problem with Tenko is that
A) He is very very little.
No one explained to him that he was allowed to feel pleasure over the fact his family could not abuse him another, while he could also feel guilty because that was not the way he wanted things to end. He lost his family. No, even worse, he killed his family. Even if they hurt him, he also loved them. Those feelings can coexist within him, but he shouldn't confuse one thing with the other.
B) All kids have tantrums.
If any 5 years old was given that type of power and I promise way more incidents like that would happen. They are kids for a reason, they don't know better. It's the job of the adults around them to teach them how to tolerate things and live in society.
Laws are there for a reason too. They are meant to keep people in check. No, you cannot murder everyone because you are stuck in the morning traffic. No, you can't murder your boss because they're an asshole. You cannot erase everything that bothers you from the Earth. Why? Because it won't make you happy in the long run. We need to learn to coexist with our surroundings, annoying as it could be.
AFO did the opposite. Just look at the way he speaks to Tenko. Even working on the assumption that Tenko always wanted to kill, it was AFO's manipulation who set him on the villain path.*
Image for the purple text:
AFO talking to Tomura:
" Otherwise, you'll be the only one suffering.
Integrity. Morals. Ethics. All of them are just social constructs designed by some guy who wanted harmony in the world.
There's no need to let yourself be held back by them. In the end, what you yourself want to do is the most important of them all. "
Tumblr media
We know AFO is not the most reliable narrator and neither is Tomura, right? The bnha manga is currently on chapter 414. We're at the point where Tomura and Deku just started seeing each other's memories. Hopefully, the manga will soon clarify / reveal the truth and this meta would be obsolete.
Take this purely as a couple of people creating theories for fun, because they want to entertain themselves in hypothetical scenarios. Okay?
Time to close this endless meta post by saying I think AFO was wrong about the nature of the itch. It does come from a form of desire to destroy, but I think it's Tenko's reaction to seeing injustice and not being able to do something about it. It started at home, when he was unable to change the way his dad treated, when no one would defend him or try to stop his dad.
When Tenko killed the Shimura's, his hatred grew to everyone because he found them unfair. You could say hypocritical too. He learned to hate himself for killing his family, learned to hate the heroes saying something and doing something else, especially All Might because he is the symbol of heroism, but wasn't there to protect Tomura from all the pain. Isn't he "all mighty"? He hated Deku for the same reasons / for being a copy of All Might.
It's a twisted version of Deku running to save someone without even knowing what he's doing. an instinct none of them can deny. Where Deku's instinct was nurtured and taken care of, Tomura's was taken advantage of and corrupted almost beyond recognition.
But that's an entire meta I'll post later, so I hope you all enjoy this rambling. No idea if it makes sense, for which I apologize.
Any asks, to the inbox as always <3

🌙 HATE 5: Shadow 🌙
Mansion of the 7 Moons, outskirts of Seoul, South Korea.
Shadow.
Seventh moon.
Sadist.
Suga.
He had been called so many names throughout his life that sometimes he even forgot his own.
What was it?
Oh right... Yoongi.
No one had called him by his own name since the death of his parents.
He stopped being Min Yoongi the day he became an orphan. One day he was the clan's golden boy and the next morning he belonged to the streets.
And a few years later he belonged to Kim DoHan
Not even the members of The Seven Moons, his brothers, knew his real name.
In the eyes of the rest of the world, Suga was one of the seven children of Kim DoHan. Although his blood did not run through his veins, The Leader was his father.
Although that's not entirely true...
You see, Yoongi's father, Min Jungki, and Kim DoHan had grown up together. Both were the favorites of the previous Clan Head to inherit the business, since they were considered the best warriors.
Legends amongst the streets of Seoul.
While Kim DoHan was known as the devil.
Min Junki was known as the shadow.
One would put a bullet in your head looking into your eyes.
And The other you would never see him coming, until the last thing you felt was a bullet through your head
The young Min Jungki had grown up among the elites of the mafia, being the eldest son of the former Second in Command and surrounded by all the luxuries of the clan’s life. While Kim DoHan had joined the family during his teenage years; he had grown up on the streets and inevitably ended up in a criminal organization.
Deja vu..
It's ironic when history repeats itself. But never the same way twice.
The old Leader did not have sons, but a daughter...
Yoongi's mother.
Whom he had protected with all his power from getting involved in the clan's business. However, with her kindness and beauty she won the hearts of both young gangsters, who tried to win her.
Kim Dohan wanted power.
Min Jungki loved the girl.
Although there wasn't really a fight, Yoongi's parents loved each other from the first moment they met. As expected, the devil didn't like losing.
But Kim Dohan saw Junki as a brother and when he was killed during the clan war, the now Leader did everything possible to protect Yoongi and his mother.
Much more than what he did for his own family.
But the Devil's efforts were in vain.
The triads found Yoongi and his mother at the house where they were hiding outside the city of Daegu.
His mother was killed in front of his eyes.
While Yoongi was hiding behind some bushes in the backyard.
“Go away and don't look back” were the last words his mother said to him. The triads burned down the house with her body inside and not finding him they assumed Yoongi’s body had disintegrated from the flames.
But they were wrong, Yoongi had escaped.
Seven years is too young to become an orphan.
Too young to live on the streets.
Kim DoHan became The Clan’s Head shortly after. Due to the death of his brother and his first love, he would now be the only heir to the clan. The Devil took a few years to find young Yoongi who no longer used that name.
On the streets of Daegu he was known as Suga.
A vandal, street fighter, a professional thief and con artist.
He was only 14 years old and his name was already feared in the city.
He still remembered the face of his brothers the day he arrived with The Leader to the clan. A skinny Child, with dark hair falling over his eyes and some injuries that looked quite recent, it was obvious that he had been fighting for a long time.
He was just a kid, but he was terrifying.
However, Jin looked at him curiously, as if he had never seen someone of low class before. He approached to shake his hand only to stop on his tracks, terrified to see the murderous eyes of the newcomer.
And Namjoon...
He didn't like this Suga at all. What kind of stupid name was that? He was an intruder, an outsider, he would never have a place in his family.
For the present Suga, those ghosts didn't torment him. He truthfully didn't give a shit what his pretentious brothers thought of him.
Fuck them.
But he had other shadows, much darker ones that haunted and tormented him.
And it was at night that it was more difficult for him to escape from them.
That's why he sat on the balcony of his room to try to ease the pain of his past crimes. He smoked the shadows away, trying to forget all the blood on his young hands.
That's what young Yoongi grew up to become, a monster, a murderer who only followed his master's orders, a pawn in a game he had no power in and damn how he hated himself for it.
Weed.
Alcohol.
Pills.
Sometimes mixed them all together so he could numb all the pain away for a few hours at least. They said a good dealer never did his own goods. But, hey, at least he was sure he pushed top notch shit to the streets. But even every ounce of drugs trafficked in his cargo ships could not make his shadows stop tormenting him.
It sounded like a bad joke, a killer with a conscience.
A killer who knew what kind of monster he had become.
He owed his life to his Leader, that was true, but he also knew that he had already paid off his debt with more than enough interest. Hell, he had paid for his debts in his next life. But none of that mattered, he had sworn an oath.
His life belonged to the clan.
That is why that morning, after the clan meeting ended and his father told him to disappear all the bodies of the members they executed.
He couldn’t say No. 
When the Leader also ordered him to make sure their families wouldn’t go looking for them.
He couldn’t say No. 
Yes, he was the one in charge of the traffic operations. But also he was his father's little shadow.
His personal hitman.
And when his father told him to follow a certain newly arrived heiress.
Well… 
He really didn’t want to say no to that one.
When he was going to take another puff on his joint, he heard three shy knocks on his bedroom door.
The fuck?
Everyone knew in that house that his door was always open…
Unless, you know, he was busy.
He was about to ignore them until he heard you.
“Hey, sorry I came to give back your clothes. I'm going to leave them here, on this table is it ok?”  That made him smile. Suga felt like he couldn’t move fast enough to be in front of you.
“Oh Little flower” he called you in his low voice, he didn't expect to see you but God knew how much he wanted to “haven't they told you that it's not appropriate for a lady like you to come knocking on the door of a man like me at this time of night?” 
He loved to see how you flinched every time he called you flower. He couldn’t really help it. You were pretty, you smelled like lilies and you looked like you were hiding a dark secret he wanted to discover. 
It’s been a while since the last time someone made him so intrigued. 
”I came to give back your clothes” you said with that know-it-all tone he really was starting to like  “And I did. So I'm leaving, clearly you're busy”
”Oh, I might not be as refined as the rest of my brothers. But I am a gentleman. For you, I have all the time in the world, flower. You still don’t smoke?”
”No, I don't. I told you”
He wanted to keep you in his room he knew his father had asked him to get information from you and he would be lying if he didn’t admit he also had other selfish reasons to do so. But, earlier today he noticed that holster under your skirt and the way you took down Hobi.
Don’t get him wrong, that was hot, but also suspicious.
Very fucking suspicious. 
And he needed an explanation a very good one that dind't end up with you cooperating with an enemy clan, or worse...
A fucking cop.
That is why he cornered you on his door and put his thumb under your chin to give you the most lustful smile he could.
You didn’t even notice when he took your gun. 
The oldest trick in the book Suga tought thinking it was almost too easy to fool you.
“Oh flower. I don’t kiss and tell. Do you?” 
“I don’t” you answered
“Then tell me why a pretty girl like you is carrying a gun like this”
 
He didn’t finish what he was about to say when he felt your soft lips on his. It was a brief second and then you moved a few centimeters back to look at him, doe eyed “My daddy gave it to me” Suga felt like the gates of hell had opened inside him. 
He now knew you were lying. 
There is no fucking way Mr. Lee had given you a gun.
Oh but that fucking word.
He really wanted to hear it again on your lips. 
But that was for another day, right?
Right, he needed to get his mind out of his pants and concentrate.
A smile tugged on the corner of his lips right before he crashed them against yours again. A hungry kiss charged with a tension none of you wanted to admit. His tongue licked your bottom lip and his hand traveled from your chin to gently hold your neck. Suga wasn’t asking for permission.
He was going to devour you and deal with the consecuences tomorrow.
Fuck the mission.
“Didn’t you say you were a gentleman? But here you are kissing me in the middle of a hallway still holding my gun” You said breathless between kisses "Is that how guys flirt here in Korea?" 
“Oh pretty flower, no one comes to this side of the house unless they have a death wish” He grabbed you by the hips and spun you around so your back was now pressed to the wall next to the very open door “I came… to this side of the house” you bit his lip and he felt his body growing harder “Yes, yes you did little flower. Do you have a death wish?” Suga’s hands were everywhere like he knew deep down that out of all of the sins he had ever committed in his life…
You were the only one he would never regret. 
To the point he was questioning his sanity; It was very much unlike him to be melting for a pair of pretty eyes, that very misterious aura surrounding you and those lips.
Those fucking lips.
If The Leader knew what he was about to do
Suga would be also called a dead man. 
“Yes, I have a death wish” your smile was wicked, like a siren about to eat her prey whole. Suga was so distracted by you, and his own death wish, that he didn’t notice that you intertwined your legs with his to make him fall down to the floor. In a second, he was on his back and you were straddling him.
To be very honest it didn’t really bother him at all, you could kill him right then and there. 
He knew he was on another level of fucked up when he felt himself getting harder the moment he saw you aiming your gun at him “Go on pretty flower. Shoot me. No one is going to hear a gunshot on this side of the house. Believe me, I’ve done it before”
There was something very fucked up in you too when you tossed your gun to kiss him again. Lips crashing and tongues dancing  in a fight for dominance, his hands were on your thighs and you were slowly grinding on him. 
He could fucking feel how wet you were getting trough his pants.
He would die denying it, but in that moment he felt like he was about to come. Like a fucking teenager kissing his crush for the first time. He had to start thinking about taxes and how much the electricity bill has gone up these days to divert his mind from the beautiful vixen that was sucking lilac bruises on his neck.
There was a deep dark realization inside of him. That he would let you get away with every fucking thing you asked for if you kept kissing him like you really meant it. 
He dragged his hands up your thighs and under your skirt to grab two handfuls of your ass cheeks. The surprised whimper you gave him was the last string keeping him sane. 
The whole fucking clan could march into his room right now and he would not give two flying fucks. 
That was a lie. 
No fucking way Suga would let any of his brothers ever see you like that. 
And that was a fucking promise.
 
He didn't care if he had to take the clan out of Namjoon's manicured hands.
So he could have you all to himself.
For fuck sake, your hips rotating on top of him were driving him to the edge of his sanity.
“Tell me pretty flower, do you taste sweet like lilies?” Suga had turned both of you again so he was on top looking down at you with eyes dark with desire.
“Why don’t you go ahead and taste me, Suga?”
Oh no, his sanity was out of the picture now.
Out, like an awful singer on an even more awful talent show. Out.
Out, like a teenage father who went to buy milk and cigarrets. Out.
Out like... You get the idea right?
Suga smiled at you giving himself time to take in every detail of your face, like he wanted to memorize it “Oh I will, but not on the cold floor. Be a pretty obedient flower and sit on my bed and I'll be right behind you” He moved back to let you get up and sit on top of his dark bedsheets. His eyes never leaving you “Take those pretty panties off” he said.
“I don’t really like being told what to do. If you want them off…  come and take them” 
In that moment Suga knew the Devil himself had sent you, his personal demon, to destroy him.
You would be the death of him.
He wanted to have you for himself and himself only.
Fuck the clan.
Fuck what his father said.
And most importantly.
Fuck Kim Namjoon if he tought he could ever have you.
This was the first time in Suga's life that he wanted to become the clan's heir. So he could have you.
Suga rose from the floor to walk to the edge of his bed, the silver chains around his neck shone in the moolight “I am going to enjoy you begging for me” His moves were calm, like a man who had all the time in the world.
Even if he knew he hadn't
He knelt again between your legs gave you a small peck on your left knee before looking right back at you “And before you say you don’t beg. Pretty flower. I wasn't asking. That was a promise” Suga's gaze was dark the scar that traveled down his left eye made him look intimidating and rough. But his touch on your skin was everything but; hands travelling up your thighs Suga pulled the strings of your panties off and he could smell the sweet scent of your arousal. 
He felt like he was going insane when you opened your legs to let him look at your womanhood. He moved his hand forward to touch you with the tip of his fingers.
Just a brief touch and you were soaking wet.
A little bit of pride flushed through his system.
“You act all high and mighty. But look how wet you are” he pushed his middle fingers inside your opening so slow he felt like he was also torturing himself. He knew no one would hear you moaning and panting so he could enjoy watching you with your head pulled to the back and your eyes closed while he entered you again and again, pushing another finger inside making lewd noises.
Should he had taken off his rings?
Hell no
You looked like you were enjoying the cold feeling of them against your hot skin.
When he was satisfied with his work he brought his fingers to his lips so he could taste you “Sweet like a lilly, my pretty flower” he didn't give you time to process that he called you his, fuck, he didn’t give himself time to process he said it outloud. A heartbeat after he was diving between your legs liking a long slow strip from the bottom to the top of your clit, drinking your sweet juices “Fuck, Suga” you whispered.
That made him stop. 
He didn’t want you to call him that name. 
Not when he was drinking you like a man who just found water in the middle of a desert. 
Not when he was making you make those sinful sounds he wished you could only made for him.
“Yoongi” he couldn’t stop himself from saying it.
The name not even his own brothers knew he had.
A name no one had called him in twenty years.
You gave him a puzzled look  “My name is Min Yoongi. You can call me Yoongi when it’s just the two of us” 
“Yoongi” you repeated.
 
And he made you scream his name all night. 
Once with his fingers.
Trice with his tongue.
He was so intoxicated he didn’t want to stop tasting you. He dind’t give a fuck about his own pleasure anymore. He wanted to watch you come undone as many times as he could make you.
 
Until you fell asleep on his bed next to him. 
Exhausted. 
That Night Suga felt like he could be Min Yoongi, at least just for a brief moment. 
And for some reason he wasn't ready to explore, just yet.
When you were in the room. 
His shadows weren’t so dark. 
But Min Yoongi didn't know that night he made two mistakes. 
One was trusting you. 
And the other was leaving his door open. 
Because another Shadow was looking outside his bedroom. 
Watching him betray his father’s trust. 
The Leader's orders.
And his clan's code.
And that was the best thing that very human shadow had seen in a while.
And he relished on all the ways he could use it.
Should he tell his Father or Namjoon first? 
Namjoon would kill Min Yoongi.
His father would probably send him to a deserted Island on the Busan coast right after he castrated him.
And his name.
Min Yoongi.
That was going to be usefull.
That little piece of information gave him Power.
But all on his time.
 
Dangerous games were played inside the Seven Moons Mansion. 
And you were all just pieces on the board.

Dissimilar Twins AU
What if Vee escaped Belos's grasp years before Luz's arrival in the demon realm? What if after her escape she sneaked inside Eda's portal/ fell inside Titan's blood pool and ended up in the human realm? What if Camila, Manny, and an 8-10-year-old Luz found her?
Remember this post? Well,  since a certain someone (@zombibble) already took the idea and is making their own story with said premise, I decide to give it a twist! resulting in this new story I'm present you over here. Althrought I have many plans for this AU I'm currently busy with other stories so for the moment enjoy this little taste of what is to come...
Her half-sleep-awake state went to a sudden halt upon hearing something. hard to say exactly what, at first it sounded like a single step then… nothing.
It was 2 Am. Mama and Papa should be sleeping. Which only means that…
...Someone is robbing us? Luz thought, unsure of the true source of the sound or where it originated, she could hear and feel her instincts instructing her to remain quiet. 
She hesitated to make a move, maybe it was just Mister Toledo, that raccoon, for whatever reason, liked to hang out around her home's backyard. Or maybe she just imagine everything-! 
*Creak*
It wasn’t her imagination, that old creaking wood slab between the kitchen and the living room…
There is someone inside the house.
She knew Mama and Papa would tell her to stay in her room, where she would be safe while they deal with whatever was downstairs. So she waited, seconds turned into minutes, but nothing more happened. But what if the house was being robbed? Mama just started working at the animal hospital, so she always came back home exhausted late at night, and Papa, while now working from home, still needed to follow the doctor's orders and rest as much as possible.
More sounds, this time, it was the recognizable screech of one of the kitchen cabinets.
It was Luz's turn to support the family, for once, she will be the responsible one!
"Nada funcionara, amenos que lo hagas funcionar"  time to follow Mama's example!
She slowly creep out of bed, took her favorite yet only bat, and started her descent downstairs.  Her descent was slow, each step carefully planned to make as much sound as a feather. No lights were lit, so as to not alert the intruder who sounds like be thrashing around the kitchen. She could barely make up the silhouette of the figure, now opening cabinet after cabinet, sniffing whatever they got their hands on, and placing them inside the bag they carried- oh! And They are wearing a cloak? mysterious... 
Finally arriving at the living room and getting a closer peek at the enigmatic person... they looked small, like, really small, almost as small as her! Their size caught her off guard because she was hoping for a malandro (criminal) she could knock out cold and drag their unconscious body to Mama and Papa. they would be so proud! 
But what if they are just a kid? but... entering someone's house without permission was still a crime so -Then the wood beneath her creaked, a single foot slightly sinking the slab located between the kitchen and living room.
The sound alerted the intruder, and their eyes instantly lock on Luz.
From within their cloak, a set of ample, weirdly contorted eyes stare back at her, their eyeballs were a mixture of blue and yellow tones, seemingly burning through the shadows of the night.
Time froze for the both of them and although Luz tried to keep her composure, all of her initial bravado evaporated. The grip on the bat loosened with each passing second. Her body shivered under the gaze of what it has now realized wasn't an intruder... or human, but an animal-
-A predator
Luz tried to flee, but each step backward was painfully slow, her body came to the realization that it now carried the weight of something delicate and invaluable. 
That thing being her own life
The human didn't dare to stop looking at the creature which followed all her movements with unbreakable focus. It wasn't until it decide to shorten the distance between them that Luz discovered what lay underneath the cloak- A claw decorated with shining black talons came out and was coming for her-!
Luz let go of her bat and screamed.

I wasn't planning on typing this until I became able to get on my computer because I hate typing on a phone but I don't know when the flop that will happen so I'll just go ahead and type it.
For the 3 people who read about my dream posts, I was finally able to apologize to Leon. And Hop.
This is big so I'll slap a keep reading right there
This happened a few nights ago.
Before this dream, I hadn't seen either Leon or Hop since the last dream I posted that had either of them in it. I don't remember how long ago that was.
I almost always can tell I'm dreaming but never control things which is frustrating. But I was controlling this dream.
So..... before the actual good part of the dream, my family was being very bad to me and I went to sleep in the dream.
In the dream within the dream, I realized I had all my memories from real life.
The location was some beautiful flowing grassy field as far as the mind could see with pretty electric blue skies and it had random gray stones and also gray stone structures that look like a flat platform with a roof with thin pillars on 4 sides to support the roof though the platforms with the roofs were round so idk if I could say it has "sides" but whatever. This place looked straight out of a fantasy world.
Also some kind of awesomely epic and inspiring orchestra type of music was playing.
So, as I had all my memories from my awake self, I called Leon's name and he appeared. Specifically he appeared in a light in one of the stone structures as though the things are magic portals or something. He looked confused and slightly concerned. His expression got even more concerned when he saw me :( come on my guy, we used to be friends until I started having so many nightmares. Hop still thought I was fun to hang out with.
Anyhoo, after summoning Leon successfully, I called Hop's name and then Leon's facial expression changed. Not out of fear of the danger of all the nightmares I have, but something else. I don't quite know for sure what emotion he was portraying but it looked like a form of intense sadness mixed with some other emotions. Mostly sadness.
Anyway Hop didn't appear when I called his name (that could explain the look Leon was giving me) and I had a reaction to that in a way I would react irl in this kind of situation. A head tilt and a "huh?".
So I called Hop's name again but with more force and he appeared in a light in one of the stone structures.
Leon immediately had some kind of face that was a mix of surprise and happiness and so did Hop. More heavy on the surprise with Hop. Leon ran over to him and hugged him and they were both crying. A positive sort of crying like they hadn't seen each other in a long time and were happy to be reunited.
Okay, did dream actually Hop die somehow when I was under the impression that Leon simply found a way to stop him from visiting my dreams?
That's kind of totally super upsetting but at least I brought him back to life finally.
Anyhoo.
I wanted to hug them both but I figured that now wasn't the best time so I made sure they both had my attention as my short-self was looking up at both of them
and I said, full of emotion
"I'm sorry that I put the both of you through so many of my nightmares."
They didn't say anything back. I guess they were just too surprised about everything going on to speak.
But then I got a call on a magic dream phone from Gwen from Ben 10, the one from Ben 10 Alien Force.
She asked me why I was asleep at night if I'm nocturnal.
And I said "I'm not nocturnal. I sleep when I get tired and that just happens to be during the day more than at night. I'm very busy. I got control of my dreams for the first time and I'm finally getting to do the things in dreams I want but I never remember to do. Now leave me alone. It feels like I don't have more than 5 seconds left at most."
Then I hung up. The dream was actually waving around like the very uhh "reality" in the dream was shifting towards wakeup.
I wanted to thank Ryuki for being my friend and called his name, but I didn't see anything more than the light appearing in the stone structure before I woke up.
Thanks Gwen :( how'd she get in contact with me anyway? I've had Ben 10 dreams before but I don't think she's ever been in one and I definitely hadn't ever spoken with her before this as far as I can recall. She knew the "usuals" of my broken schedule too. What-
So anyhoo I was completely flabbergasted by how vivid the dream was.
I got the taste of a controlled dream that night but I want the full course meal. And I want it with every sleep.
I've been looking up online for ways to learn how to control my dreams and one of the ways listed is to write down what I want to dream about before I go to sleep so I got an old notebook and yesterday night I wrote what I wanted to dream about.
I also repeated to myself "I will control my dreams" whenever I wasn't lost in thought at something else because that's another way.
It doesn't seem to be working yet but it needs time and determination I suppose. I will learn to control my dreams for sure. I need this. To have a generally better life and to end my near constant nightmares.
If I can psychology myself into ignoring pain, I can psychology myself into controlling my dreams.

Gwilin of the Day: "Say When" Gwilin
Today's Gwilin of the day is brought to you by: raunchyandpaunchy on ao3!
(you guys are gonna be seeing this name an awful lot. bless them, they've filled the "gwilin" tag up with four of their fics)
The Edged Lexicon
Published: Aug 23, 2018
Rated: Explicit
Length: ~80,000 words
Featuring: Too many characters to list. Most notable ones are Fem. OC, Brynjolf, Adrianne, Vex, Drevis Neloren
Set in: Whiterun Hold
REVIEW
There are a lot of things I could write about my experience reading this story–the countless thoughts, feelings, and opinions I formulated as I did. While drafting this review, I had to remind myself to keep the focus on Gwilin, which is never hard for me to do. That being said, this story certainly didn't make the task any easier for me.
I'd say out of all the Gwilin fics on ao3, this is the one that really shot for the stars. And it's a smutfic! Commendable...
Originally, I read only the chapters of this story that included Gwilin (chapters 9, 10, 11, and 14), but ended up going back and reading the whole thing. All in all, I found myself dying to hear this Gwilin speak. Each time he did, it was like a cry from a beautiful bird that meant to sing, but knew better: delicate, tentative, incapable of being furtive, and –that word that kept popping up to describe him– reverent.
His characterization is very subtle (likely the subtlest of any of the fics I've reviewed yet). If I had to describe it succinctly, I'd say this Gwilin is one to parse, but he's not insecure, or meek, or slow to action. He's self-assured, and has a strength of character that seems to stem from this unshakeable conviction in himself. He knows who is, but he is totally willing to let himself be guided as he figures out what he likes. The author describes him as "corruptibly innocent" at one point, but I do believe the word innocent belongs nowhere near this Gwilin. He smashes the dichotomy of innocence and naughtiness to smithereens, encompassing at once everything that lies within and everything that falls outside of it. His lust is felt and shown, never imposed and yet never kept hidden, seen and known only by the grace of him.
Meanwhile, he is beyond eager. I really like that his eagerness isn’t to please, as I felt was more the case with the author's OC, Nadine, but to satiate himself. He wants to drink and let others drink from him, and he does not skip a single beat in pursuit of that (e.g. "No sooner had he pulled his cock out of his loincloth than Gwilin enveloped it in his mouth [...]", “Gwilin barely waited for Ulfberth to position himself at his mouth before descending on his cock […]”, "He fell against her, sweat-soaked and breathless, peppering kisses across her back and shoulders as he struggled to gain composure.").
This eager spirit of his only adds to his sweetness. Gwilin blushes every five seconds in this story, simultaneously shying away from and relishing every bit of attention that is given to him. I ate it up. He doesn't appear to be very good at picking up social cues. I ate it up. His politeness is almost himbo-like, which is not how I tend to imagine Gwilin, but it did not feel dissonant with all the other ways he inhabited this story at all. I ate that up, too.
Every turn this Gwilin took, every bend in this road of his... had me ripping my hair out and squealing and freaking the fuck out.
In short, everything about this Gwilin made me go totally insane, in the best fucking way.
Moment that my mind chose to fixate on: There were so many moments, honestly. If I had to pick, I'd say it was when Drevis reappeared as he was fucking Gwilin in the ass. The thought of Gwilin's ass feeling so good that it made Drevis lose his concentration and break his invisibility spell is everything to me. I'm not one to consume a lot of fanfiction or erotica, but, from what I have, it's probably the hottest thing I've ever read. You know I wanked it!!!
I. Compellingness
Completely speechless here. There are simply no words. 10/10
II. Swagger
Self-confident. Looking cute as hell. Thriving. Swag levels are definitely off the charts. 9/10
III. Talent
Whoa nelly is this Gwilin talented. Full-fledged throat goat, ceo of fetching towels and cloths, an archer, absolutely slays the loincloth look. 10/10
IV. Backstory
Not much to speak of, but this story is pretty long and he isn't the main character by any means. I think what little information is revealed is fair for the amount of "screentime" he gets. 8/10
V. Pleasure of Reading
The prose of this one really draws you in, and refuses to lull you so much as dare you to read on. The author is fond of wordplay, and has a good sense of humor, plus they gave each of the characters in the story a distinct, recognizable voice.
Some of the transitions between scenes and chapters are somewhat disjointed, though. Also, the author is clearly invested in the “philosophy” of BDSM, which isn’t an issue in and of itself, but some parts of the story are rather blunt and unsubtle in reflecting this. It's good in the sense that it expresses the points of contention of issues surrounding BDSM in no uncertain terms, but bad in the sense that the characters can come off as mouthpieces for the author's thoughts. 8/10
VI. Horniness
Decent understated yet ever-present horniness. More overt or elaborate expressions of his desire or a window into his thoughts might have been appreciated, but Nadine's thoughts were the true focus of the story so I can't be too harsh on that front. Those descriptions of his moans said it all, really. 9/10
Final Tally
My
autistic ass
gives this Gwilin a 9/10!

Hi Moon!
I'm here for Aruani writer ask game :3
1 3 6 7 9 10 11 14
Hello Anna, and thank you for the ask ./////.
1 - Share your favorite part of your latest fic T^T A trick question! I have many little moments I love! But okay, here's one I can quickly think of, from Ch 10 of VBEOW:
Armin reaches up his free hand to brush a lock of hair away from her face as she continues to hold his gaze. Eyes like the daylight sky, that hold strength and resilience within those light blue irises. They expand into the dark pupils of night whenever they focus on him and him only.  The inside of his palm hollows to fit the gentle curve of her cheek and she leans into his touch. She keeps her eyes on his and doesn't break contact even when his thumb brushes along her delicate lower lashes. "What are you thinking?" She whispers. I want to make love to you, he thinks. Undress you, kiss you, take you high. His index finger  brushes along her upper lashes, long and beautiful, and her eyelids flutter closed.  He wants to make love to her. Give her ecstasy and pleasure and everything he has to offer. But he's so tired.
3 - If you look back at your first fic compared to your last, what's changed? This is answered over here :3
6 - Tell us about your longest fic Uh, VBEOW is... the current and only longfic xD I honestly have never written a chaptered fic before for several reasons, and I also didn't see myself doing this until 2 months ago when I thought about the sequel to TFLM and suddenly went "oh shit, I can't fit all this into a oneshot ._." And so it happened and the intro that was supposed to be 2 chapters became 7... and now I think it will extend well into the late twenties ._. All that said, I think it's the best use of my time that I've spent recently. It makes me very happy to think about, to plan, to write, and I'm glad I'm living my best life in this fic anyway xD I'm very proud of it for sure. I am also a fan of giving people a visual adventure/treat on anything I try to do, and here I've found an opportunity to do that for both the characters themselves, and for the readers.
7 - What was the inspiration behind your shortest fic? Shortest fic... would be... Falling Into Neptune at 4.6k words and it was this song: Tenno - Spirit of Life xD The song just told me to write about their first kiss in Fort Salta and to make it HOT.
9 - Which of your fics is your favorite and why? I'm sure I've already said this 329835923856 times xD But TFLM. Idk why exactly, if you asked me to point out how superior it is to VBEOW, I can't do that because it's not, and it's also not that complicated... but I guess I just really like the Fort Salta setting in general and I just fit all the magic into that last day as much as I possibly could. Also, considering it's given a great deal of inspiration for VBEOW, I'm very grateful to it :3
10 - Write about their first kiss! ... this question actually confuses me xD Because first kiss... as I've written it... or in general?? ._. But anyway, as a headcanon, I'd imagine it would be pretty awkward. With both of them secretly dying to kiss each other and also nervous as fuck; Armin will think too much, Annie will think too little - it's bound to be a little... messy, maybe? xD But they'll fall into rhythm in less than 0.5 minutes, because they're quick learners, and they're hot and awesome T//////T
11 - What annoys you the most about your own writing habits? Hm. First and foremost, the fact that I can't relax and slow down my pace. If a fic/chapter is mostly fully outlined in my head, I just can't go "Okay, i'll write this in two days" no, because I'm already itching to write it and I tend to ignore all my other responsibilities altogether xD Second is how I always second-guess my intelligence with plotlines I suppose.
14 - Tell us about a detail you wrote that nobody has commented on yet. I don't think it exists, especially not when you, in particular, pick up every detail and more xD However if we're strictly going to by "commented" I guess the only thing I can remember off the top of my head is that Kari-Armin interaction in Ch. 11 :3
Thanks very much for the ask T^T

Affogato and Caramel Arrow Hogwarts AU ramble because why not?
• Caramel was a hatstall and I cannot be convinced otherwise. You bet her little 10-11 year old self was anxiously sitting in that tiny old stool in front 500 people while the sorting hat had a mental breakdown on whether she was Gryffindor or Hufflepuff for a solid 6 minutes
• Affogato didn't even get to the stool when the sorting hat yelled 'slytherin'
• Caramel Arrow is a Half-blood with both her parents being wizards and her father being an auror (joining the 'Second Watcher is Cara's dad' bandwagon for this one)
• Affogato is muggleborn who was disowned once his family found out about his magical side (aka the Dursleys walked so his parents could run). He convinced almost the whole school, teachers included, for a solid 6 years through various schemes from forging parental signatures to somehow convincing Caramel and Crunchy to brew a polyjuice to shift into his parents for teacher-parent meeting
• He also convinced a lot of people that he was a pure blood, although some thought he was secretly a half-blood, nobody knew he was a muggle born
•Caramel Arrow finds out about his heritage and id imagine they'd have nice moment until they wack each other with their wands the next morning
• Dark Cacao is the defense against of dark arts teacher in this universe and they are both *really* good at the subject and see him as parental figure (but Affo would never admit that)
• *cue two 13 year olds practicing their patronuses at 2am because they really want to impress DC and who ever gets it first is clearly the superior student and therefore his favorite*
• Caramel Arrow gained the nickname 'First Watcher' by catching the Golden Snitch within the first minute of a Quidditch game (Affogato and many others believe the snitch was charmed despite the multiple thorough inspections done to the snitch saying otherwise)
• Side note: In this AU, snitches are worth only 60 points and it has nothing to do with either of them, I'm just petty about that rule and wanted to have something a bit more balanced than 250 points
•I took a couple of quizzes plus some surface level research and have deducted that Cara's wand has a unicorn hair core and Affo's wand has dragon heartstring core and I'm willing to do more research (I also did two really long patronus quiz and got black stallion for Cara and Eagle for Affo but I may double check those)
• Affogato sometimes narrates Quidditch games but he isn't allowed to do so often due to his snarky and sometimes very biased opinions,
• Affogato excels at potions. He has gained some perks out of this like easily gaming permission to enter the forbidden library for 'research purposes', being allowed to brew interesting potions such as polyjuice because he is 'practicing his skills' and carrying a bottle of amortentia 'for extra credit'
• Speaking of Amortentia, Caramel Arrow smells campfire smoke, brown sugar, caramel and wet dog/wolves and Affogato smells coffee, galleons/coins, ice cream, lavender and chocolate
• Affogato keeps his hair in a bun and sticks his wand sideways for safe keeping (and to resemble his og design)
• Caramel has really good Alohomora and Revelio charm
• They have gone to detention for randomly dueling in the halls way too many times
• Caramel is terrified of Howlers because she never knows whether it's her dad scolding for getting into detention or Affogato making dirty jokes and loudly moaning (where does he even get all those howlers-)
• Affogato had a snake and he once tried to scare Caramel but she ended up taking a liking to it so now they have to 'share the custody'
• Affogato kind of joins the Cookies of Darkness/Death Eaters in his later years but he isn't very into their beliefs. He's just there because Dark Enchantress offered him a place to stay and to put his potions and curses to good use if he served her.
• He tried to leave but he realized she would not think twice to kill him if needed so now he's just panicking
• Affogato is basically Draco Malfoy but it's StarKids' 'Very Potter Musical' Draco Malfoy aka the one that is played by the short, iconic legend that is Lauren Lopez

Books I read/reread in the last 3 months of 2022 and recommend (and yes, all of them are queer)
Tumblr media
First rec
Afterlove by Tanya Byrne
Ash, a 16 year old student from Brighton, meets Poppy on a school trip and falls in love with her within a few months, but what happens when Ash is in an accident? Will death keep them apart?
Absolutely loved the concept, very quick read and you instantly fall in love with the two main characters and hope that they'll be together forever, amazing story and very well written 10/10
Date Me, Bryson Keller by Kevin van Whye
Bryson is dared to date a different person each week for three months, and by the end of it he is asked out by Kai (out of rage rather than want) who is a closeted gay guy just trying to survive high school in the closet, but maybe being Bryson's fake boyfriend could change that
An honest delight to read, all the characters seem real and the main two have amazing chemistry (for me they have similar vibes to Nick and Charlie from Heartstopper) 9/10
Here's to Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera
Second book to What If It's Us, following Ben and Arthur in the big city again, but this time with boyfriends of their own, so are their feelings towards each other really gone?
I think it was just as good as the first book, if not maybe even better, I found it realistic and very pleasant to read 9/10
Jay's gay agenda by Jason June
Jay is the only out gay/queer in his hometown, but when him and his parents have to move to Seattle, he gets the opportunity to meet other people like him, and maybe he'll be able to cross out things from his Gay Agenda list
Very well written and loaaaaads of drama, but it also had its fluffy moments, I enjoyed it (even though there was quite a lot of miscommunication, it was solved and they vowed to do better) 9/10
Lab Partners by Mora Montgomery
Elliot is in his final year of high school, with his twin sister already in college and feeling the pressure of choosing a career path, he meets his new lab partner, Jordan, who might help him figure out who he is
I loved this book so so much oh my god Elliot is such a sweetheart! There's bullying which wasn't pleasant to read but the revenge and consequences are AMAZING (also had a hunch about Cole and I was right hehe) very easy and quick read 10/10
Let's Talk About Love by Claire Kann
Right after breaking up with her girlfriend because she wanted to have sex and Alice didn't, she moves in with her two best friends who are dating. The summer arrives and all she has is her job at the library, where she meets Takumi, her new coworker. Will she be able to open up to him about her being biromantic and asexual?
It's funny cause when I first read this back in 2018 I was studying the exact same thing that she wanted to study, AND I'm asexual, so it was really cool. There's family drama, friendship drama and relationship drama, all three. Very well written 9/10
Some Girls Do by Jennifer Dugan
Morgan gets transferred to a new high school a few months before graduating and meets Ruby, who according to everyone is trouble and should stay away. But you can't choose who you love now can you?
Nice book with good queer rep but god the pageant story line was not pleasant for me sorry, and Ruby's mum can suck ass (also Dylan and Owen are the kind of brothers I need in my life) 8/10
What If It's Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera
Arthur moves to NYC for the summer, interning at his mums law firm, but when he bumps into Ben at the post office, he might just believe that the universe decided to give him a chance at romance
Very cute story and fun to read, even though they were a bunch of 16/17 year olds haha, but it just felt real to me (also maybe too many Harry Potter references for my taste) 9/10
Queer rep
Afterlove (lesbian characters)
Date Me, Bryson Keller (gay and queer characters)
Here's to us (queer, gay and bisexual characters)
Jay's gay agenda (gay, genderqueer, queer and asexual (mentioned) characters)
Lab Partners (gay, asexual and aromantic characters)
Let's Talk About Love (asexual, biromantic and queer characters)
Some Girls Do (lesbian, queer, gay, pansexual, transgender)
What If It's Us (gay, biromantic and asexual characters)

Tonight is the partial opening of the light cycle car we didn't get it out last night and the light cycle rev trike and we're not doing the track it doesn't handle well enough there are several other vehicles coming on and the Chinese American rev trike the mini bike series and sports car series we introduced it last time we reintroducing it and of course the light cycle trying cycle itself and we are introducing several forms and the most important is the second prototype is finalized and where issuing that it is one that's after the one Brad built and it is also his design the first one was his design and second one I have my own design and I'm going to release it shortly he says within the same company so I'm going to do that and I'm going to call it something that matches the speed and technique a little bit slower but it works pretty good it doesn't wear out as fast as well it's really fast
Our parts Depot company is opening as for motorcycles thus far and we have different ones for different types of parts we might open one for boats fairly soon and automobiles we might question say suck really bad now we just opened the stores and we won't need them you're too small anyways they don't have anything. And we're getting on that now we have about four parts Depot for motorcycles in the west coast in California and those three Oregon this one we have two in Arizona three in Georgia 4 in Alabama they're opening and Monday will be fully stocked and they're probably going to be swamps 24 hours a day

There is a huge response to the helmet and face shield posting people think it's ridiculously gross and are buying tons of it it's it's disgustingly sick and they say they're related and all such a dumb s***.. it's a few things to say one is gross and so many people doing it the other is it's disgusting and the third is really and they're buying the gear and they're buying the cosplay and Halloween type stuff and the jewelry some of the jewelry is stated as authentic replicants it is that the face is actually mother of pearl in many cases some cases it's just a marble but it depends which one it is a lot of the gear was kind of cheap no it is different stuff and it was he our son says his brothers was alabaster and it was and hers was onyx no it's Amber and they're laughing because they were saying it beforehand and having them by each other jewelry so they're watching them and they went ahead and take over everything including them make them do stuff and so forth ridiculous the attitude is terrible it was terrible whole bunch of them died up there probably half the head ones and bunch of their armies
I have other news it's breaking the sheriff and down to 300 and holding and it might be that they're having it said no good to go to police or down to 10 and holding and the local government is that 3400 and dropping I think 2300 I'm in the government workers down to 15% and it's holding and we have not gotten any calls for projects yet and they probably wound up leaving cuz I can't live anywhere and there's no apartments and they are losing at the eight points it's down to around 200 quadrillion and out shortly in the war is preceding above both in about 40% of what was up there and it's only about a billion chips on around Earth and none of them are more like ships they're hunting them down and stopping them from grabbing them from underground
Thor Freya
People are not babies and they act like it all the time and sound like it and it's pretty gross cuz we know what they're thinking

Sons first match
Tumblr media
"Right make sure you score loads of goals and don't take no crap from anyone alright lad?" Trent asked his 4 year old son who was waiting at the side lines to kick off his first match. Trents hands protectively rested on your little ones shoulders as he crouched down behind him looking st his very own view. Using the word crap probably wasn't trents cleverest move as a parent but it clearly didn't register within his brain. Yours and trents little boy had been dieing to play football with a proper team since he could kick a ball. In his eyes the only thing which mattered was to be like his dad and in this very moment he saw himself like his very own daddy.
"Right kids come on kick off time" the couch shouted from the middle of the pitch ushering all of the little children over with a huge smile. Your little boy ran over to you and gave you the biggest hug and ran off to start his little dream.
"Good luck little one" you shouted over to him as he turned around to look back at you with a huge grin on his face. Your little boy wanted to be like his dad but he was always a mummy's boy through and through. One of the many things your son admired about his dad was the love and patience he had for you and he knew he would grow up to have the exact same for you as he got older. Trent was on the side lines walking up and down like he was actually Jurgen klopp, he had forgotten this was a small 5 a side game between 4 and 5 year old kids.
"Trent stop walking up and down your making me nervous" you said to trent with a laugh as he was progressively becoming more and more stressed. Trent looked at you in disbelief like you had just told him he was going to receive no Christmas presents.
"Babe this is serious stuff" trent said gesturing to the 10 boys legging it down the moody green grass in fits of laughter.
"Honestly I don't even think they know its serious stuff. Just let him have fun" you pleaded to trent kissing his cheek and watching how his eyes became slightly more gentle watching the game now you had told him that the only thing which matters is that he had fun. Trents arm found its way to your back snaking through your coat and cuddling you into his side to feel your warm embrace to more than likely shut you up.
"Oi no im not having that! Thats got to be a red card" trent shouted to the ref on the side lines all of a sudden causing his arm to fly off you and your ears to ring due to the high pitched screaming. Your face dropped at trents sudden screaming match infront of so many kids about a small game.
"Sorry lad where ignoring red cards there only kids" the referee shouted back with a laugh secretly trying to ignore the fact he wanted to run over to you both and ask for a picture. Trent offered the man a polite smile and decided to ignore his outburst he had let go atleast 30 seconds ago. You placed your hand within trents trying anything you could to calm him down.
-
The match had gone on for another 30 mins and they all decided to call it quits. You where incredibly proud of your little boy and how much effort he was putting in. Life with two boys who where extremely obsessed with football was difficult to keep on top off but it was something you couldn't get enough off.
"Oh well done lad I'm so proud of you" trent shouted wrapping his large arms around your sons small frame and lifting him into the air. Your sons face was a picture - a huge smile with booming eyes looking at his father with the most precious presence.
"I was trying to be like you" he said with a gummy smile as you and trent made your way over to the car park.
"Really? Well you look like a little me because you copied my hair" trent said with a warning face as he would always joke about him stealing his hair style.
"Noooo you copied mine daddy" he replied back latching onto his neck even tighter to try snd tease his dad. You looked over at them both as they where absolutely besotted in each others company.
"I think you two both copied off each other" you said to them both causing your little boys face to light up in joy at the thought of agreeing on something which ment both of them there in the wrong and not just one of them.
This is just a small one I thought I would write! By no means my best work but I love the concept and storyline. Please leave feedback! Requests are open
@prettylittletrent @hnrfc @travellvogue @yvessainteng @trentshoe @smileytaa @mrs-henderson @daddyhendo @goldenskyeng @kostasstsimikass @robbo38 @cornertakenquicklyyyy @chloereddy

Tumblr media
"Hi there."
Just two single words are uttered from your lips and Jungkook is reminded of everything that has happened from the very first moment you spoke those exact first words to him.
He remembered those eyes of yours, so lost, so lonely, yet still having that kindness within to try and reach out a hand in order to ease his pain even if it meant just a small dose. Little did you know you'd end up as a true keeper of the dragons, lover to the seven princes of the East Sky and Mountains. But knowing the rewards, in the end, had never been anything you were seeking for at the time, and his heart warmed at the single reminder of how truly kind your heart is. After all, before you could even come to that moment of happiness with them all, you had to face serious consequences all because of that kind heart of yours.
Looking back on it, Jungkook only wished he could have dealt with it all in a better sense. If he were there for you like you were always for him, if he had gotten to his lovers a little sooner to make them see that nothing about you had been false, if he had been there through your pains and tears, maybe you could have reached that dream of freedom and happiness so much quicker.
"Jungkook?" Yet no matter what he thought, you were always there gracing him a sweet smile with such precious eyes that he knew he would forever hold dearly to.
"Back from taking care of the little whelps?" He asked, driving his thoughts away from the memories in order to look at what was in front of him instead. Jungkook knew he couldn't keep dwelling on the past no matter how much it had hurt him. Because here you were, lips curled into a brighter smile and he knew then that no matter what he thought, you'd never blame him for anything.
But perhaps that was what was hurting him even more.
You walked into the castle, feet having light bounces to them with a basket full of laundry. "I'm fairly certain Namjoon will hold an apprentice ceremony for Haeun soon. Who do you suppose her mentor will be?"
He grabbed you by the arm to pull you back in front of him before you could walk right past him without a second thought, surprising you just a bit.
"I'm sure Namjoon will make a wise decision on that but," the young dragon drew both his hands to hold you firmly by the shoulders as he expressed a disappointed face, "don't you think you're forgetting about someone else first?"
You giggled under his adorable pout. "Don't you have to get ready for the afternoon hunting patrol soon?" You reminded him, causing him to let out a grunt.
"Why is it that Taehyung and Seokjin are the ones to have you by their sides every day? Why can't it be me?"
"Kook," you laugh, "you know your hyungs would never let me go out there to support the patrols. For one, it can be dangerous especially for a simple human like me, and two, I don't have a clue on what to do during a patrol."
He sighed, allowing his hands to drop by his side again. "It's unfair. Sometimes I wish I wasn't a warrior."
"Don't say that. The clan has both you and Hoseok to keep us protected and that is something I would never want to take away from you."
"I know. I just want to spend more time with you" He looked up to meet your gaze again. "But for now this will do." Without any warning, he leaned in to give you a quick kiss to your lips, causing your cheeks to brighten in an instant as he strolled away with a giggle, knowing exactly what your expression would show without even looking.
You were too adorable for your own good.
.
.
"Have you ever had scented candles before?"
On one of the rarer days when you were free from your duties and didn't have the little whelps demanding for your attention almost every second you turned your head and Seokjin was well on his own, you accompanied Jimin in the lonely dungeons as he made his rounds as head of the guards, making small talks ever so often.
There weren't many prisoners locked up for their bad deeds just as the time you spent there a prisoner yourself so you knew Jimin often got lonely making his rounds all alone each time. Taking that into consideration, you weren't going to let the opportunity of your free time be spent doing nothing.
"Scented candles?" You tilted your head slightly to the side with innocent eyes that always got him every time and Jimin chuckled lightly after dropping his clipboard on a table from finishing his rounds with you by his side and turning to elsewhere. "I've heard of them before but they don't necessarily exist around here do they?"
"They don't but there are tales of the scented candles being of great help to be of comfort for anyone in need." Your eyes widened at his words, feeling quite intrigued, and when Jimin turned back around with a few things in hand, your breath hitches. "The first person that came into mind was you when I heard about them," he told you with bright eyes smiling as he brought them on over towards the table at the center of the room. You followed him curiously, rounding yourself to stand beside him as he displayed the candles for you. "So I had one of our traveler dragons to bring them back when they had the time."
"Jimin..." You felt so touched by his kind thoughts for you you almost didn't know what to say towards the sweet gesture. But when he graced you with a tender smile upon your gaze on him, you were sure he understood your thankfulness towards him.
"If only we had these at the time when you were our prisoner." His face fell with slight dejection but you were quick to shake your head lightly.
"Having you to help me then was more than enough, Jimin, I promise. Then again," thinking back to that time, you giggled upon the memories, "would you guys have really wasted such precious things on me at the time?"
He sighed. "I'm glad we can joke about it now but looking back at it, we were so horribly rude to you I can't believe I let my emotions get the best of me."
"You were just worried for the little one."
He chuckled upon your words with a tousle to your hair. "I don't think Jungkook would appreciate someone smaller than him calling him the little one."
You gave him a pout. "And why not? You do it to him all the time."
"Because I'm his hyung. Though he does often tease me about it from time to time." You giggled knowingly, already picturing their small bickering when it came to the two of them and their banters. Having seen that, Jimin smiled from where he stood beside you and brought his hand behind your head in order to pull you close and place a sweet kiss on your forehead, surprising you and making your cheeks flare up at the sudden gesture without warning. He found it cute how you had yet to get used to their kisses whether unexpected or not but returned his eyes to the candles despite the shocking state you were still in.
"Shall we try one of them?"
With his question, you blinked in a daze before shaking your head to return to the subject, and with your cheeks still slightly flushed, your eyes darted back to the candles laying on the table. "There are so many different kinds," you observed with a slightly opened mouth of astonishment to which Jimin found adorable.
"I didn't know what kind of scent you'd prefer so I got the dragon to get a couple different kinds."
"Lots of them are flowery scents," you beamed under the lowlights of the dungeon as you went on to pick up the candles in order to observe them up close. Pulling them up close to your nose, you waft at them in order to get a sense of how each of them smelt, your expressions clearly pleased each time you got a new scent to try as Jimin simply stood there watching you, happiness blooming in his chest at just the sight of you so content. "They all smell so great even without it lit up."
Your face fell with furrowed brows as you stared at each of the candles, having a hard time choosing which one to try first and Jimin let out a laugh. "You're so cute," he said. "We can try every one of them now if you still have time to spare."
"I have all the time to spare!" You exclaimed almost a little too happy for someone who had come in the dungeons declaring the desire to help. But he knew that was just the way you were and for that alone, Jimin wasn't at all dissatisfied by it.
"Well then, since you're having a hard time choosing which one to try first, just close your eyes and choose."
"Good idea!"
Upon Jimin's suggestion, you quickly closed your eyes and hovered your hand over the candles, blindly searching over each one before you finally settled with the one to the far right. With that, you opened your eyes again and held that one up.
"Lavender," the dragon beside you stated.
"Lavender's wonderful!" You were quick to say with your eyes lighting up at the chosen one. "It helps relieve stress and anxiety," you let him know and his brows furrowed a little at your words.
"Are you having trouble, little one?" He asked, concerned.
"Oh no, not me," you quickly said with a shake of your head. "I want to share this with Namjoon because I know being a leader to a clan isn't always the easiest. He comes home later than every one of us after all and most times I'm already asleep by then. I haven't seen him around lately so I'm a little worried."
His eyes softened at your innocent kindness that never seemed to ever leave your heart no matter what and for that alone, Jimin almost believed that he was falling in love all over again. "We're so lucky to have you by our side."
You looked up at him and gave him a humble shake of your head. "It's the other way around," you smiled. "Do you think he'll appreciate it? Oh, but you got these for me as gifts."
"Don't worry, it's always best to share gifts like these with each other," he said while gently stroking your head. "I know Namjoon will be more than happy to receive this."
"Then shall we also choose candles for the others as well? I think it would be really incredible to build a storage room for scented candles so that whenever one of us needs it, we can always—"
"Before that."
"Hm?"
Innocently, you looked up from the candles to meet Jimin's gaze only to have your lips captured in a sweet kiss, leaving your breath to hitch and your eyes to widen as you froze right there at the unexpected kiss.
Jimin leaned away just enough to give you some space with a chuckle. "Your reactions will always please me."
"J-Jimin!"
"But," his brows furrowing slightly, he brought his hand over to slowly swipe his thumb along his lip as you simply stood there, staring at those plump lips of his, not knowing what to do, "I want more, little one."
"J.." Your cheeks brightened even more as your eyes were quick to avert to the ground upon meeting his eyes, causing him to let out another throaty chuckle.
"I love you."
He found it amusing in the way your face only seemed to flush even more each time he did and said something. Your eyes were shaking, not knowing where to look, and he was sure your head was swarming with thoughts of how to respond to him. Surely you were panicking upon whether to return those sweet three words or not and it brought a tug at the corner of his lips.
"Well?" He raised a brow, waiting for your permission.
You bit your lip, still contemplating, but Jimin went on to take the lavender-scented candle away from your grasp to place it back onto the table as he inched towards you in a sly manner.
"I..." You opened your mouth shyly.
"Yes?" He urged you on.
"I-I..." You stepped back out of panic but he followed right away. "Well..um..."
"Hm?"
Bravely, you looked up to meet his eyes head-on and Jimin smirked, satisfied with that. But still, he waited to hear your words and despite how slow you were with it, hearing it made him happy nonetheless.
"I love you too." You told him and he smiled, letting his hand trail down your face in a gentle possessive manner before leaning in and pressing his sweet lips to your own.
It's a gentle kiss like the gentleman he is and not long after your thoughts are filled with him and him alone.
.
.
"I can't wait to become an apprentice! I just know prince Namjoon will choose the perfect one for me!"
You giggled fondly at the little dragoness who sat beside you helping you with your duties as the two of you fold the blankets for the whelps together. "But before that, you will have to let him know what you want to be first, right?"
"Ah," she said, almost as if she had forgotten about the beginning steps first.
"Well?" You urged her on. "What would you like to be as part of the clan?"
She looked away thinking, her hands coming down to a stop on top of the white blanket that laid on her lap, her thoughts going on to stray away to the different duties every dragon has as a member of the clan.
"Unnie how did you choose what you wanted to do?" She asked you instead of answering, her decisions still unclear.
"Well," you started, ready to help her to try and decide, "I chose to be both Seokjin's underling and helping out with the whelps because I love helping. I guess it was easy to decide because, for one, I enjoy taking care of the whelps' needs, and two, I'm used to the herbs and remedies as I've often had to learn them myself without relying on others to help me heal when I needed it. Plus it comes in handy when the princes need to be tended to."
"You don't like just watching on the sideline and would rather be of help, huh?"
You nodded with a smile. "Tending to them makes me feel useful. I can protect them in that sense while they help to protect the clan as warriors themselves. I'd hate to just stand back and watch them in pain, not knowing how to help them. It'd feel worse than anything"
Haeun broke into a beaming smile at your answer. "Unnie, that sounds just like you."
You chuckled at her words and went on to tousle her hair. "You'll find your purpose one day soon. Take your time, no one is rushing you."
"Oh!" She let out a cute little gasp. "What if I worked as a caretaker as well? That way I can be of more help here in the roosts!"
"That sounds—"
"No."
The two of you turned at the voice to find Taehyung walking up with a slightly displeased expression as he handed little Kihyun to Haeun before shamelessly pulling you against his chest right in front of the kids.
"T-Taehyung!" You quickly gasped and were ready to push him away at the unexpected gesture. Only he wasn't going to let you go.
"You already spend too much time with my princess, you can't keep taking her away from me. I'm supposed to be the one who spends more time with her than anyone else, Haeun!"
You couldn't believe this was the reason for his refusal of Haeun's help but rather than taking him seriously, the dragoness let out an exasperated sigh as she stood from her spot with Kihyun in hand before purposely sticking her tongue out at the prince. "Sucks to be you then, my prince, because unnie likes me more than you anyways!"
He let out a dramatic gasp with the grip around you only tightening. "How dare you say such lies."
Yet she made no comebacks and simply ran away before Taehyung could scold her anymore.
You giggled at their little banter and turned around to face your lover with a sigh. "I would appreciate it if you kept the affections to a minimum in front of the little ones."
"Why should I? Those little dragons are already trying to steal you away. I'm just marking my territory so they know not to steal someone else's mate, especially one that belongs to a prince."
"You know they're just playing around."
"That's what they'd like you to think, those mischievous little brats."
You burst out laughing at how ridiculous he was, jealous of the little dragons and even having quite the serious pout plastered upon his face. You didn't know what to expect walking into the relationship but even so, everything had been so well you were glad to be able to laugh and smile along their sides no matter how many times you'd get flustered by the things they did.
Frowning at you for not taking him seriously, Taehyung grabbed a hold of your face in both his large palms and brought himself right in front of you, making your laughter cease almost instantly.
"Is it fun making me jealous?" The prince asked with a raised brow, suddenly giving you a deadpanned look you weren't sure what to think. "Hm, princess?"
Your eyes panned away from his out of panic, already afraid to be caught by the poor little dragons in case they stumbled upon the two of you. "Tae—"
"I'm right in front of you yet you're focusing on something else?"
"If the whelps catch us like this, I—" He brought your face forcibly back to face him again with a displeased expression that is quick to bring your voice quiet all over again. "Tae..." Seeing him like that was a little surprising to you. After all, despite the many months spent in the dragon clan, there was still so much you had yet to know of including how the princes would act as your lovers, and now that you were with them, it still felt a little unbelievable they would feel such love and possessiveness over you.
Maybe that was just the nature of dragons. Just as you've heard stories of them being quite possessive with their treasures, perhaps mating was just as if not more important.
Your faces were so close you were sure Taehyung could feel the heat of your cheeks against his palm. It made you even shyer so you looked away, not brave enough to keep eye contact for much longer, and just for that, he let out a knowing chuckle.
"You're so cute." His voice was low, quiet. "I don't want anyone else to see this side to you, princess. You're ours after all, aren't you?"
You ignored his words in an attempt to hide your embarrassment. "Don't you think, um...you're being a little too brave doing this right here?"
"I'm sure Haeun's got us covered."
"That's not—!" You grunted. "We can't let her watch the whelps all alone, you know that."
"Eh," he shrugged, not caring one bit, "she's a good kid. She'll take care of it. In the meantime—"
"Noona!!"
You were quick to gasp and pushed Taehyung away as soon as you heard the young voice calling your name. "Do you need something, Minho?" You asked, turning around as the little one ran up to you while you both ignored the cry of agony and frustration falling out of Taehyung's lips as he leaned back into one of the beds of the whelps, holding his face against his palm at the missed opportunity that was now ripped away from him.
"Noona I wanna play with you!" The little dragon exclaimed with a bright innocent grin plastered on his face but Taehyung knew it was anything but. As if to provoke the prince further, he grabbed ahold of your hands and dragged you off, not even sparing Taehyung a single glance, knowing fully well what he had just done.
.
.
"Y/N."
"Namjoon!" He saw you quick on your little feet as you ran up to him with a beaming smile that was just enough to slowly ease the weights resting on his shoulders. But he knew it wouldn't last forever despite wanting to keep seeing that precious smile of yours even if it meant for just one whole night, dreading for the time that was coming. "I was just looking around for you!"
He gave you a tender smile as he drew his hand along your face, stroking it gently. "Did you need me for something, dear one?"
"Mhm!" You took his hand, ready to run off. "Come here, I—"
But Namjoon pulled you back to stand right before him again, he himself not having moved one inch despite you just about to drag him away. "Can it wait?" He said, causing your smile to fall with a slight concern.
"Oh. Are you busy?"
He hated doing that to you. "I was just about to have Yoongi call for a clan meeting."
"Ah," you said, nodding. "Then I will wait for you in—"
"Actually."
"Hm?"
"I want you to attend the meeting."
That took you by surprise as your eyes widened a little, totally unaware that Namjoon would ask you to attend a clan meeting. Usually, he would have all the princes and his most trusted dragons together for a meeting first before letting the rest know of any news that would be important to announce. You've never attended any meetings before and there hadn't been one for a while so surely the things he had to discuss had to be important, right? So why would he ask you to attend?
Seeing the confusion written on your face, Namjoon began to explain. "You're our Keeper now, remember?" He said, reminding you of the ceremony that had taken place just a few weeks ago. "Must I keep reminding you that you are now very important to the dragon clans?"
"Well..." They've mentioned that but you have yet to know what exactly that title meant for you. "I haven't exactly done much, have I?"
"I know," he nodded, understanding. "Truthfully none of us truly understands how a human would prepare for this role but I need you to begin seeing this title as your new duty. I know you have the whelps to take care of and also work alongside Seokjin but being a Keeper will begin to take up the majority of your time now. I need you to be prepared for anything, Y/N."
"I..." The serious gaze he held for you made you understand how crucial it was but still, you couldn't find the answer as to why. "I don't understand."
Namjoon nodded again. "It is best to let everyone know first before you ask your questions." He took your hand and began leading you towards the one room you hadn't exactly been to before; the meeting hall. "But just know that from now on, the Keeper will be attending every meeting that is to be held."
Knowing your questions would be answered soon, you gave him a nod. "Okay."
The meeting hall was a grand hall that laid a large table right in the middle with twelve chairs surrounding it all together. Seeing it up close and personal itself, you could understand just how serious the meeting was going to be. Even Taehyung himself who had already taken his place towards one of the ends held a grim expression.
But upon seeing you walk in with Namjoon at your side, his face lit up just the slightest bit.
"You look tense," he joked as if trying to ease your nerves with his little jokes. "It's alright, princess," the dragon assured you with a soft smile as he held his hand out to offer you a seat beside him. You easily took his hand, allowing him to guide you to the chair beside him as the others began to file in.
Hoseok took his place on your other side with a grin. "First time here?" He asked almost flirtatiously and made you let out a giggle.
Not long after the meeting began.
"The three clans have gotten news of me declaring Y/N as Keeper of the Dragons." You could feel all eyes turning to you at the report that left Namjoon's lips and just for that, you felt a weird feeling drop within your stomach but you weren't sure exactly what you were supposed to feel.
Was it a good thing? Or not?
Weren't the Clans all connected in one way or another despite them ruling their own skies and mountains? Questions swarmed in your head and you were suddenly realizing just how much you didn't know about lots of things that were important to the clan.
Sensing your confusion, Namjoon began to explain. "There are four main clans. The East, the West, the North, and the South. The other clans that exist are the smaller clans that protect other areas that are not covered by the four major clans. The warriors live protecting our territories in order to maintain the lands that were given to us from the first beginning wars many years ago. We are allowed to go to war with any smaller clan to gain land if we wish to do so, but none of us are allowed to attack any of the major clans so that no one clan becomes one over the other and dictates the rest."
"Hence that's where gaining a Keeper poses a problem, doesn't it, my prince?"
You turned your head at the warrior that had spoken. "It..does?"
He sent you a conflicted expression. "Us major clans may not be allowed to attack the others to maintain order but there are other ways to gain power and look slightly better than the rest."
"And one way by doing that is having our ancestor warriors accept a Keeper into one of the clans," another warrior added.
You were posing a problem as a Keeper already? Just by existing? Did that mean you'd have to leave in order to not cause more problems and potentially be the reason the clans may go to war?
Seeing those worried brows furrowing, Seokjin turned back to Namjoon. "The clans have given you their answers, I am sure. What did they say?"
With Seokjin's question, the attention returned to the high prince once again.
"They will accept the Keeper as long as we grant them the permission to use her in the case of any major wars."
Jungkook abruptly stood up in protest. "No!" He said in a thunderous tone with a face filled with rage at the thought of even bringing you to the wars. "I will not allow anyone to use Y/N in any way shape or form even if it comes to our own wars."
"But the Keeper has her powers to protect herself and the ones beside her."
"Y/N doesn't know how to use her powers yet," he was quick to dismiss the thought.
Meanwhile, you look at Hoseok and Taehyung beside you with confusion at this so-called power of yours. You really possessed powers now? And as if reading your thoughts, the two of them gave you a silent nod both firmly to let you know that all of this was real.
"She can learn."
"And she will."
"Whether she learns it well or not does not mean I will let anyone take advantage of her and put her life at risk. Y/N's already gone through so much, you can't just expect her to suddenly be thrown into the middle of our clan's problems."
But you were the root of the problem so it only made sense. And you were sure you weren't the only one thinking that as you looked around the room, noticing the hesitation in the warrior's expressions as some of them felt conflicted on whether to voice their true opinion on the matter or not since they all knew you were the lover of the princes.
Sighing silently with worry, you spared a glance towards Namjoon who seemed to be the one in the most conflicted position. After all, as leader of the East Clan, he had to consider both sides to the problem while also needing to take in the other clan's words without dismissing it so easily.
As you sat there while the debate continued on, you realized that the only way the clan could have accepted you at all was to become a Keeper. That was the only position available to you as a human in order to be someone not only the East Clan could trust but the rest of the clans as well. Which also meant that this was Namjoon's way of protecting you. Because as Keeper, you were given the power to protect not just the people around you but yourself as well.
"Hyung." Jungkook turned back to Namjoon, wanting the leader to declare the words of declining the other clan's orders but you knew it wasn't going to be that easy of a decision.
The room fell silent again as the youngest of the prince addressed the leader who sat tall in his seat at the end of the table. His gaze remained grim with both his hands clasped together in front of him with silent thoughts swarming in his head.
It remained that way for a while, the room waiting for Namjoon to speak.
He closed his eyes for a second before sitting back tall against his seat and looking up to rest his gaze right on you. Your heart skipped a beat, not knowing what he was going to ask of you or if he had come up with a decision, and whatever it was, you knew you had to be prepared.
"Y/N," he called, voice uttered in a low octave.
"Yes?" You were almost too afraid of what his next words were going to be but this was Namjoon you were talking about. You knew you could trust him with your whole life. The two of you went through danger together, helped each other up, carried one another, and made it out alive in the end. You knew more than anyone that he wouldn't purposely lead you to danger. After all, even though he had hated you then, he still protected you from that great fall because he knew you were special to Jungkook.
If there was anyone you could trust, it would be Namjoon.
"The wars that the dragon clans may involve themselves in can be quite brutal," he told you. "There will be enemy dragons far more dangerous than the ones that had attacked both you and Seokjin. You have to, however, be rest assured that our own warriors are far stronger than you can ever imagine. I will do all that I can to negotiate with the other three clans but be prepared to know that you may be needed in one of the wars in the future."
"Namjoon—"
He held a hand up to silence Jungkook without ever diverting his gaze from you. "No dragon that belongs to the clans, whether that of the major clans or the smaller ones, will ever dare to harm you. Every dragon knows not to try and harm a Keeper who lives to protect them. So if and when the wars ever come, will you give your complete trust to us in due time just as the clans will do the same with you?"
Seeing that complete resolve in Namjoon's eyes which hides no lies upon his vow to keep you from harm's way, you knew your answer.
"More than anything, I will entrust my life to the clans."
Proud with your reply, Namjoon let himself give you a faint smile in return.
"This will mean the clans will want to meet her, won't they?" Jimin spoke up upon the possibility and returning to his serious expression once again, Namjoon gave a nod.
"The Keeper has much to learn then."
"That's right."
Customs and courtesies along with the history of the Clans and their origins. Adding along with your training as a Keeper, the need to protect the dragon clans. You had much to do but you knew running away from it wasn't going to happen so you sat there with a resolved look in your eyes, letting the dragons know that you were going to do it all if it meant protecting them.
They smiled knowingly, proud to have you as their Keeper.
.
.
"Can't sleep?"
Namjoon's eyes turned tender upon the sight of you joining him out on the balcony later that night. He held out a hand for you to take and you gladly accepted it with no protest, allowing him to bring you forward and wrap his arms around you to keep you warm from the night breeze.
It remained silent for a while with the two of you just basking in each other's warmth, comfortable with just the sound of the crickets chirping under the night sky filled with the light of the twinkling stars.
"I'm sorry," he whispered a moment later and you turned to look up at him with confusion.
"For what?"
"When I gave you the title as Keeper of the Dragons, I should have asked you about it all first instead of just deciding it all on my own," he told you with a grim expression resting on his face. "Now you're going to have to face some challenges that you weren't prepared for."
His voice was soft against the wind, but you could hear the guilt and heavy stress weighing against him, letting you know that he had been worrying about you with all of this now going on. The other three clans weren't going to give in to his negotiations that easily but Namjoon would be working hard just for the sake of you and for that you knew all you wanted to do at that moment was to ease his burdens.
"It's okay," you told him softly as you leaned against his chest to let him understand that you weren't blaming him for any of it. "You gave me a place in your clan and that is more than enough."
"Being a Keeper is not going to be easy on you. Whether it was the only title I could give you as a human or not, this will only make things harder on you."
You chuckled a little at those words. "You know more than anyone nothing has been easy for me in the first place."
"Exactly." He let out a sigh as his arms around you tightened with worry. "This isn't exactly helping."
"As a Keeper, no one can hurt me, right?"
"You're going to have to learn to defend and use your powers first."
"Mhm," you nodded. "And I will."
"I know you will Y/N, and I trust you with all that I have," he acknowledged without any doubt. "I know that despite the situation you're suddenly placed in, the burdens you will have to face as a Keeper, you won't let any of that get to you and will do all that you can do for the clan. But," he gave you a squeeze, holding you tighter as if to silently tell you how afraid he was knowing he had no choice but to send you away as a leader who had to make the best decisions for everyone, "truthfully I wanted to agree with Jungkook and straight-up refuse the thought of even involving you in any future wars. The little one knows you best. He's seen through it all, feels the most guilty out of any of us for not being able to protect you as well as we should have. And I know you don't blame him, none of us does, he was after all the one who fought so hard for your life. But because he had to go through that, Jungkook will be the one to suffer the most when we have to send you off to fight."
You understood that. You understood the fact that Jungkook's heart was so big he wanted to protect everyone he could with his power. He was there beside you, always feeling helpless he couldn't do much to help you in your situation knowing he had been less powerful than the rest of his hyungs, but even then, you would never blame him because none of it was his fault.
He was a kind, gentle, and loving dragon who refused to let any of his lovers get hurt. But you understood where Namjoon was coming from and knew this wasn't going to be easy at all.
"I will tell you this though," you looked up at the leader whose eyes were already on yours with a firm resolve in his eyes. "As the leader of the Eastern Clan and as your lover, I will not let anything happen to you no matter what we will face in the future. So can you place your faith in me and do your part knowing I will be standing right beside you in all of this?"
"Namjoon..." Dealing with the Clans and potentially needing to be used in some of the future wars would not be easy, you knew, but you also knew that you weren't going to be alone. So you gave him a firm nod, knowing more than anyone that you could trust him. "Of course."
He leaned in to place a kiss on your head. "That's all I need to hear."
.
.
The days grew longer and longer as you took your duties off as Seokjin's assistance and the caretaker of the whelps in order to begin your training as the true Keeper of the Dragons.
You were given a teacher who taught you the history of the Clans and common customs and courtesies to prepare you for the meeting of the other three clans and had to face a challenge in trying to understand how the previous Keeper had lived.
None of it was easy, knowing you would be alone throughout most of it because the dragons themselves had no idea of how to train someone with a position they've never had to face. So you spent most of your time in the large library mostly to yourself with lessons after lessons on the history of the Clans and the first Keeper of the Dragons.
Given the ability to wield the power to physically protect someone while having no idea how to use or control it was hard for a beginner like you, but you knew you couldn't give up so easily because this was now your duty. You couldn't let your clan down nor disappoint anyone.
Everyone believed in you, it was your duty to show them that you were capable of this position without any doubt.
If the other three clans blindly trusted in you to the point of potentially asking you for aid in future wars then you could not let them see you as a weak and vulnerable human who would make excuses on how hard it was. You had to prove yourself to everyone.
Not just your princes, not just your clan nor the other three clans, but to yourself as well.
You were going to face this head-on, knowing it was your duty to protect the dragons now as Keeper of the Dragons.
.
.
"Tired?"
You quickly shook your head as you headed back to the private chambers after another long day of studying. With a big smile plastered on your face, you knew you couldn't let them worry over you so much.
"I'm perfect!" You said to Yoongi who held on to a skeptical expression.
"Well that's true but," he held his hand up to stroke your hair with eyes that didn't blindly believe you so easily, "you know it's okay to say when you're tired, right? You have it very rough right now, after all. We can all see it."
"Well I'm a little tired," you admitted sheepishly, knowing you couldn't hide anything from them as he brought you in to hold you in his arms soon after. "But it's been going well, I promise."
"I don't doubt that." Seokjin came up from behind you to place a kiss on your head. When you looked up at him, his eyes were just as concerned as Yoongi's. "I know you're a smart girl who is stronger than anyone I've ever met, however, you must remember to not push yourself too hard."
"You often go to the extremes for others, that's why we're so worried, princess," Taehyung said.
"If it becomes too difficult to face this all on your own, you have to tell us," Jimin chimed in. "Preparing for battles is not easy but doing this as a Keeper is something beyond our own imaginations. We may not understand some things but we're right here for you, okay?"
"Once you're done with the first steps of knowing how to defend and use your powers as a Keeper, the next step is learning how we fight our wars."
"I'm sorry," Namjoon said after Hoseok, looking the most worried out of them all since he was the one to have given you the title. "This is a lot more than I thought it'd be."
"I promise I'm alright," you said with sincerity at their concern for you. You hated seeing them like that but you knew it was coming from a good place. "Learning to protect the Clans is a privilege. I'm honored to be a Keeper. I won't let you down."
"Y/N."
You turned to the sound of the last prince to speak and saw the way he stood a bit further from the rest of you, an unsettling uneasiness clear on his face as his brows furrowed while he refused to look at you at first. It was silent for a moment as you waited for Jungkook to speak.
When he finally managed to look up and meet your face, you could see how much this was affecting him and felt your heart drop at just the sight alone. Jungkook was so worried about you.
He held his hand out, eyes averting from yours again but still, you took it without hesitation, letting the youngest prince have his way with pulling you into his strong arms. You couldn't see it from where you stood just seconds ago but now that you were in his arms, you could feel the way he was trembling slightly as he held you.
"'Please," he whispered as he let his cheek rest against your head, "if it's too hard you have to let us know. You can't lie to us no matter what. If you don't want to do this anymore then just say the word and we'll take care of it. But I know that is not something you'd ever do because you are much too noble for that so please...please don't push yourself too hard for any of our sakes. If you go too far you'll hurt yourself. So this time, this time I won't let you get too far. I promise I'll uphold my words and protect you. So please rely on me. Okay?"
You knew to some extent that Jungkook worried the most out of everyone but hearing those words coming out of his mouth, feeling the slight trembling of his body, you knew how scared he was right now. So worried, so afraid.
He loved you so much so you knew you couldn't do something that would make him think you were only going to make things harder for yourself.
You stepped back just enough to face him again where you reached up to hold his face in your hand. His eyes were filled with so much grief you wished you could just take all those worries away in a blink of an eye. But it wasn't going to be that easy. Despite that, however, you knew you had to do something to ease the pain even if it meant a small dose.
"I promise, Jungkook. I won't go too far this time."
"Good." He said and buried his face against the crook of your neck, his breath shaky as he let out a sigh. "Good."
"How about this?" Witnessing that moment between the two of you, Namjoon spoke up. "You should take a break tomorrow. You've been working non-stop these past few weeks after all."
"Hm?" You turned to Namjoon with a slight confusion while Jungkook remained in your arms, refusing to let you go anytime soon. "But—"
"The clan haven't seen you in a while since you've been buried in the library almost every day since your training started. I'm sure they've missed you."
"That's right," Taehyung let out a sigh at just the reminder of the little whelps demanding him questions after questions on when they were ever going to see you again. "You know more than anyone how much those little whelps love you. They've been asking for you since the day you started your training and Haeun isn't making things any easier. She's gotten so grumpy I can't keep handling all of them on my own."
You laughed lightly upon the mention of the little ones, already picturing them complaining to Taehyung and bouncing around him for answers about you.
"Everyone knows you're working so hard right now," Yoongi stated with a firm nod. "You should take tomorrow to catch up on things and take things easy. They've all missed you."
"I suppose a day wouldn't hurt."
"Then it's settled." With that, Namjoon gave you a faint smile as he walked up to both you and Jungkook, giving you a kiss to your head before gently patting Jungkook's head. He looked up, still slightly upset about this whole thing. "Y/N's going to be okay," the leader vowed firmly. "Everyone's looking out for her."
"Mhm," you nodded with a smile. "So don't worry too much, okay?"
He took a moment to stare at the kind smile you gave him and seeing how sincere you both were, Jungkook began to look relieved as his face relaxed for the first time in a while. "Okay," he sighed with a small smile of his own. "I'm proud of you."
Your heart blossomed with love.
.
.
Two weeks later, you were to leave to meet the three clans of the North, South, and West.
Dressed in formal wear, you took a deep breath as you stared out at the view of the horizon from the mountain top, knowing this would be the first time you would be leaving the mountain and being gone for a while.
"Are you ready?" You turned at the voice of Hoseok who stood tall beside Namjoon as the two of them would be the ones to accompany you on the journey. Behind them stood the rest of the princes and the clan to bid their farewells and wait for your return. Scanning the crowd, you could see some faces of worry and decided to give them all your usual kind smile.
"I have Namjoon and Hoseok with me, you can all stop looking at me like I'm already going out for war," you said with a small laugh to lighten the dampened mood. "I will be alright," you give them the vow with confidence in order to ensure that they did not have to worry too much.
It seemed to have worked since many of their faces began to lighten up again.
"We will be waiting for your return."
"Please stay safe."
"Send word if anything goes wrong. We'll be ready for anything."
You laughed again. "You all worry too much."
"For good reason." Seokjin walked up looking slightly grumpy. "We're sending our Keeper away after all."
"They won't do anything to me, I'm just going to be meeting them so that they will know who the Keeper is," you reminded him.
"I'm surprised you can be so calm." Truthfully despite Jimin's words, you were quite worried but you knew you couldn't show that now. It wouldn't be the best thing to do knowing the clan themselves were already concerned. "You're so brave, little one."
"Mhm," you nodded at his words with a confident grin. "So trust me a little more, hm?"
"Stay safe, princess," Taehyung told you as he gently tousled your hair.
"I will."
Meeting both Namjoon and Hoseok's gaze, there seemed to be some sort of a silent conversation going on as Yoongi met their gazes before he turned to you with a small smile. "We'll be waiting for you."
"Mhm," you smiled.
"I love you," Jungkook whispered before turning to Namjoon and Hoseok. "You too," he said. "Be careful out there."
"Of course," Hoseok nodded.
"Shall we go? We must reach the Southern Clan before the sun sets." Upon those words of Namjoon's the clan tensed up again along with an odd feeling dropping along your stomach. But you knew you had to do this whether it was scary or not. It was important to the future of the clans after all.
Once both Namjoon and Hoseok transformed into their respective dragon forms, you gave the clan a formal bow of respect. "I shall return in time."
With that, you climbed onto Hoseok's back and the two of them took off riding into the sky, leaving the Eastern Dragon Clan behind.

Little Witch - Part 9
The Darkling x Reader
🌶smut warning 🌶
He looked at you with such an intense stare of passion and longing it made you uncomfortable to be standing so far away from him. He stood and walked toward you, painfully slow, the dimness of the room highlighting his beautiful face. The tension in the room was electric, the smallest flint would set the space ablaze.
His hand reached around your throat, eyes still peering into your own, and slowly lead your back into the bookcase. He applied some pressure and leaned his head in by your ear.
'You really misbehaved today' He placed a gentle kiss behind your ear. You could do nothing but melt into his hot touch.
'I know' you whispered, seemingly out of breath.
His black eyes stared into yours and through to your soul. You were bare to him, all your anger and frustration and lust left exposed for him to see and fix. His grip on your throat tightened, heat pooled in your lower half, igniting your body alive.
'My guards think I'm a fool, a fool...whipped for a woman who dresses like a Queen' He nipped at your ear, then kissed the base of your throat.
You said nothing as his other hand found its way under your gown and lingered its fingers against your hips, then dipped into you. You let out a whimper.
'Maybe it's time I tell them it's their Deputy General, don't you think' He looked at you again, his fingers still in you, pleasuring you to the point of rendering you silent 'bar a moan here and there. You had no mind to process what he'd just said, there was only one thing on your mind.
You grabbed the sides of his face and pulled him to your lips.
The kiss was animalistic, both sides fighting the fight, your teeth clashed and tongues wrestled. His hold on your throat loosened as it traveled to grip the back of your neck instead.
Your own hands went to the hem of his shirt, tugging it up and over his head. You scratched at his back, a deep growl leaving his throat as he lifted you off the ground.
His hands snaked their way under your nightgown, kneading your thighs in his hands. Your thoughts were whirling with him, his scent, his touch, you lived for it.
You felt your back hit a comfortable bed, silk sheets. His lips never left yours but his hands did lift the only article of clothing separating you off of your body in one swift motion.
He pulled away to view you fully. He loved this sight. You were completely at his mercy. Your chest rapidly rising up and down with every breath you took, or the wetness he seen dripping down your thigh. It was because of him. He rid himself of his trousers and traced his hand up your thigh.
'Aleksander, please no teasing, not this time.'
Not this time.
He didn't hesitate. He locked his lips with you again, this time it was sweeter, more memorable. It was like old times. You both savored each second of it. You felt him rub your heat and moaned into his mouth. 'Please, I need you'
He did as you said, slowly slipping into you. It had been so long but it felt so natural. You two clicked right back into place. He held you to him tight as he let you adjust and with a sweet kiss, moved and let the bliss begin.
It felt heavenly; otherwordly. You forgot how good it felt. It went all night, one, two, three... you lost count. You were making up for all the lost time.
Once you were completely spent, you laid your hair on his chest, listening to his rapid heartbeat. His fingers lazily tracing lines on your back.
'I love you, I never stopped'
You whipped your head up. Baghra's words echoed in your head 'He moved onto the next girl.'
Liar.
'You would be stupid to assume I did too' You kissed him again despite the tiredness looming over you.
'I love you Aleksander Morozova.' and with that, you dozed off, replaying the events of the night over and over again with a smile on your face, the rage and anger gone.
******
You woke up hours later, the room still dark and Aleksander staring at you. You focused your eyes, his shadows swirling all around you.
-Flashback-
The sun streamed into the room waking you up, much to your annoyance. You loudly groaned and felt the other side of the mattress for Aleksander but came up empty-handed. 'Aleksander?'
'Yes, love?' He chuckled as he walked out of the washroom, dressed to perfection in his black kefta. He walked over to you and kissed your temple. 'Good Morning' You caught a whiff of his signature scent; cedar and fresh pine.
'Does it have to be?' you complained and dug your head into your pillow.
'Whatever you wish'
His shadows quickly returned the room to a state of darkness, where the both of you felt most at peace.
'Thank you. I love you' You found his hand and gently kissed it, leaving a lingering feeling of warmth and home for him.
And that's how every morning went; stolen kisses and pleas of darkness. Until you disappeared.
--
Your eyes teared up at the simple gesture. Your old life was finally coming back to you after so many years of adversity.
'Thank you.' you sniffed and reached out for his touch but stopped yourself. You shut your eyes, trying to calm down the sudden feeling of hunger for what was his. You thought that spending the night in his bed would curb the feeling of hunger you had for his power. Guess not.
'Take it'
You found his eyes in the darkness. They were full of love and trust. He trusted you. He never stopped.
'You've gone so long without it. Take it back'
But you didn't want to. You didn't trust yourself anymore after yesterday's fiasco.
'Aleksander, I-I don't think I can'
'Yes you can. As much as I know you can defend yourself, I want to know that your as safe as you can be, this is my way of protecting you even when I'm not there. You're not leaving again.' He inched his hand closer.
'A lot of people don't know who you are, and when they find out what you're there to do, I doubt they'll be erecting alters in your name' He was referring to your job, Deputy General.
'Alek-'
'Please Y/N, for me'
You felt him softly setting his own hand in your palm, a warm feeling settling under it. You grasped onto the feeling and stretched it within yourself. It spread throughout your body, filling the emptiness you felt and hated. Your eyes shut on instinct, your head filling with darkness. Your hold on him tightened and the shadows around you died out, letting the morning light in.
'Y/N' he called out to you and you could hear him loud and clear, but your mind swirled with the images of black shadows. You glanced at your hand and let it out, a single sliver of shadow entangled in a flame danced around the room, this was new, you stared at it in awe. As did he.
You felt whole again. You had Aleksander by your side and a set of powers that would undoubtedly change Ravka.
His hand brushed a hair out of your face and he looked at you, breaking your concentration on the masterpiece you had created. The admiration was evident on his face and his eyes swirled with reverence, he worshipped you.
'You always find a way to amaze me.'
