I'm a poly!marauders girlie and idk if your ok with that but what's been on my mind is the dynamic outside of hogwarts like maybe once they graduate(no war) do they move into the city? Or the country? Do they want kids? How would they be sending their kids to hogwarts? Do their kids tell everyone their three dads😭😭 I'm been feeling domestic lately I blame hormones
Also I couldn't find rules for your blog so I hope I'm not breaking your comfort zone
Omg I love thisssss! I have to repost my boundaries, but this is perfectly fine I love poly!marauders
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁
After school I feel like they’re more likely to live in the countryside, but with easy access to the city so they can take their girl shopping. They’re all the type to spoil you, each part of the house represents the perfect haven for each of you. This is most important for both Remus and Sirius who never really got the chance to express themselves in their homes.
As for children I think this would depend, Remus would be hesitant with his lycanthropy. James wants the best for the people he loves but had always wanted a child to care for and love as his own. Sirius wasn’t quite sure what he wanted, but he’d be happy to have a piece of each of them in the world.
If they do end up having a baby they’d all be the sweetest. Remus, “Da”, gives the best cuddles, his jumpers are snuggly and he’s never too preoccupied with his books to do any for their baby. James, “daddy”, is a very hands-on dad, he takes them to the parks, cooks with them, anything he can do to spend meaningful time, he does. Sirius, “papa”, is already teaching quidditch at the ripe age of two, he doesn’t push though, and always finds himself trying to do what the child enjoys rather than force anything onto them.
(An: this ended up being longer than I thought but wowww this got me going!! Thank you for the request 💕)

FRIENDS !? [MASTERLIST]
Tumblr media
M.Masterlist
Pairing: poly!ateez x f!reader ( A Yandere Ateez Office Au)
Genre: Mature, Angst, Yandere
Warning: The upcoming events in the story will contain themes like stalking, violence, obsession, manipulation, possessive behaviour and restraining acts. Do not kill me for not warning you. This is an Yandere story so you are well aware of what to expect more.
Well just a glimpse of a new upcoming series. This is just a fictional work which doesn't represent them originally as stated here. I am too friendly *wink wonk*so you can interact with me. Network: @cultofdionysusnet
Taglist: (open! dm me/send ask/reply here)
Tumblr media
Alone!? Oh we can’t survive like this in the rush of searching for a beautiful life. So we make friends on different occasions like some childhood friends while studying in a school, online friends, friends during family gatherings, friends on entering a new university, friends at our workplace and many more.
We remember the only friends we get attached to more and become close and the others just remain part of our memory staying in a little corner of our mind eventually.
"So you are telling me, we are .....friends?" You eyed the boy with a still confused face as why he is so much eager to help you and trying to convince you as his old friend.
"Yes cupcake! now please come with me for the interview to this office and to submit your resume. I am more than happy that they are looking for a new worker and apparently you are also searching for a job to start after this semester ends." The boy with so much of excitement and eagerness is waiting for your reply.
"okay, but look I still can't remember you and still trusting you. So how come you think they would react to my plain resume for this big company?" You are not sure of your capability for this company where so many highly qualified well-beings apply but still get rejected and this random boy claiming your bestfriend from old town is urging you to apply there.
'Why?'
You looked around the streets to take a final decision with a calm breath releasing,"I will apply but don't get high hopes of me getting into it. I am sure they are not going to take me in."
The boy in front of you smirked and put his hand firmly on your left cheek slightly brushing the lower lip for a blink," Oh trust me, they will love you to join their company."
But what happens when some people suddenly come to your life and claim to be your old friends but you can’t remember them. So, brace yourself because they are here to make your life a living hell. You are no one to build your paradise because they will make sure you to be their puppet. How you wish to be alone now!
“The pretty heaven of yours is going to turn into hell, sweety.”

All good things come in threes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gallzatto x reader
The one where reader plans an evening full of surprises.
This is set a while after 'Two dads and a mom' in the Gallzatto timeline.
~~☆☆☆~~
Work was slow this time of year and to be fair, that was just what you needed.
You had to get a lot of research done in a short time to plan out the perfect evening for your big announcement.
You had started to feel a familiar kind of sick last week and quickly sprung into action. And soon enough your suspicions were proven to be right as you stared at the positive pregnancy test in your hands.
You had been mailing and calling different people to get to see some homes in the neighborhood for you all to move into now that your family was growing again.
You've also gotten back into contact with one of your older friends who had a love for making jewelery and now had his own online shop set up to inquire about some custom made rings.
You quickly found a home within your budget that wasn't far from your workplaces and the school. It needed some smaller fixes but it was nothing that Lip wouldn't be able to get done, especially with Carmy's help. 
You were lucky to be the one who did all of your finances and had all the needed paperwork to get all.the pre-work for the house done on your own without the boys realising it, and only needed to take the family there and sign the papers with the salesperson if they wanted to move in.
The house related calls went a lot easier than the marriage calls. You already panicked about having to explain your relationship over the phone and figure out if it was even possible for the three of you to marry before even picking up a phone. You were being shot down almost immediately after only a few words and felt absolutely broken to find out your wishes weren't even considered legal in parts of the country. You shoved aside the entire plan and tried to make it into something you could do and called your jewelery making friend with your plans.
Your friend was so shocked to hear everything that happened to you since you last spoke, he felt honored to create three custom rings for your poly relationship and wished you all the best in the future. He didn't live close so you had to take a weekend trip to his place to pick up the rings.
You happily discussed all the details of your recent lives and met his partner who he shared the shop with these days. They were the social media side of their shop and got him most of his customers lately.
The rings were a perfect recreation of how you had pictured them in your mind. All giving the illusion of being two seperate rings intertwined and carrying the details of eith of their partners' rings. The stones on the bands each represented one of you. Carmen's ring held your red and Lip's black stones while Lip's held your red and Carmy's white. Yours had black and white stones set in the intertwined bands.
They were so beautiful you cried right then and there.
You couldn't keep your eyes off the box that poked out of your bag on the passengers seat on the way home. The already prettily packaged pregnancy test and fancy envelope that held the house paperwork were hidden away at the bottom of that bag, not wanting to risk your girls with their sticky fingers finding either and ruining the surprise.
The only thing you had to do now was spent your day off to get the house all nice while the boys worked.
You had the girls stay for a sleepover with Eva tonight so you could set up your plans. The kitchen island set up with candles between three gorgeously presented sets of dinner you had plates as soon as your neighbor on the ground floor texted you your boys walked into the building. On the front end of the island you had your three surprises set under a cover, for after the dinner.
You were pouring three non-alcoholic drinks into fancy glasses when your boys walked in.
"Sweets? What's all this about?" Lip's confused tone only made you giggle as they sat down their bags and rid themselves of their coats.
"We aren't forgetting an important date here, are we?" You smiled fondly at the list of important dates you all had. Lip's aniversary of being sober, yours and Carmy's aniversary, the day you all became official partners, The Bear's opening and of course all of your birthdays.
"You're not forgetting anything. Come, sit and eat." You had set the glasses down next to their respective plates and set down at the head of the island, with each of the boys sitting down at either side. Lip glanced at his fancy glass for a moment and gave you a look, to which you only pointed behind him to the bottle on the counter that had a large 0.0% stamp on the lable. It was the only bottle in sight which implied no one was drinking alcohol tonight.
"So, you gonna tell us what's up now, or-" "Nope." You quickly shot the question down again. "Dinner first, then dessert." The boys glanced at the covered item as they ate, sharing details of their day and begging you to let them guess why you went all out on this date night. You promised them it was because it had been a while since you showed them some love, always being the one being shown love and now wanting to return it for once and it seemed they were buying it as you all finished dinner without any more questions.
With all the plates empty you were getting more desperate to spill the tea and spoil the surprise so to combat your restlessness you topped off everyone's glasses and walked over to your 'dessert'.
Both boys eyed you like hawks as your hands went to the cover and took it away to reveal two fancy boxes and a beautiful envelope, all signed eith the same words. "All good things come in threes."
You tried to find the right words to start this as the items were being eyed with great curiosity.
"I- you decide together which one you want first." Your nerves were killing you as the boys mumbled amongst themselves before deciding on the envelope first. You took in into your shaking hands and reached it over to them.
Carmy was the one who took if from your hands and Lip moved over to stand next to him and look at the contents. "Its heavy." It was the first comment made on the item and you could only nod in agreement. Opening the envelope Carmy pulled out the stack of folded papers and unfolding them to stare at the photo of a two-story home with a garage next to a large porch in front of the house.
They turned the page to find the full contract that would have you own the house if signed.
"You found us a house?" Lip was the first one to speak up. "You found us a house. We can afford this else you wouldn't have these papers." It all clicked suddenly as Carmen chimed in. "That's why you were going through our paperwork earlier. Scribbling all those numbers down in that chaotic way no one understands."
Your smile was wide as you giggled and nodded. "We'll take the girls to see the hoise this weekend. I already have an appointment set. But only if you want to."
Ofcourse they agreed in a heartbeat and you decided to quickly move on. You weren't sure if the sudden nausia came from the food, the nerves or the baby.
"Now, only two more to choose from."
They each pointed to a different box and looked at each other. "Hun?" Their gaze returned to you and you quickly shook your head. "No! I know whats in these and I'm not picking."
"We'll pick the left one first. Your left." Carmy voted for the box Lip had pointed out to go first so you handed it to them again.
With the box in front of them they took a deep breath in anticipation before lifting the cover to reveal a note written in an unknown handwriting.
It read 'Wishing you three the best in your future together. Much love,' and a stamp of your friend's shop logo.
Lip took the note out of the box and they audibly gasped. Wide eyed they stared at the three rings set in the dark blue velvet cushion.
"You're asking us to marry you? Marry each other?"
Your gaze dropped in sadnedd, shaking your head. "Not legal." You simply spoke, no other words made it out.
"We'll hold a ceremony anyways." Carmy's voice was stern, not even accepting any comments on his statement. "We already have two flower girls." You laughed at the play on your daughters' names and it really cleared the mood and getting you ready for the last box.
With shaking hands you offered them their last surprise of tonight. Their looks concerned at your trembling figure. They wasted no time and took the lid off to reveal the one thing they thought never to see again. The looks of complete shock on their faces made fear rise back up. You couldn't tell if it was good shocked or bad shocked.
"We're having another baby?"
That definitely didn't sound good shocked. A sob escaped your lips and tears freely rolled down your cheeks.
The boys immediately turned to look at you, jumping up and rushing to your side, pulling you in a hug. "Trust me, I want this. We want this." Carmen's reassuring words helped. "I hope it's a boy this time." Lip chimes in with his little dream. "Or what about two? To balance out the boy-girl ratio."
"Lip, she's not having twins again. It's rare enough she had them before." Carmen tries to soothe your panic, but he's never been the best with words. "Also, her and the twins make three girls, us and the baby boy makes three as well."
They rambled on back and forth with you comfortably squished in between them. You were so worried this evening would easily become too much for you to handle, but right now you couldn't be happier to start this next chapter.
~~☆☆☆~~
A/N: Okay so I never planned for this fic to be to three-centric but is kinda just ..happened.

Warnings: Bullying + sexual harassment , comments on weight, dirty comments, Angst? Hurt/comfort, a few punches, Death threats, fem representing nb (afab), cursing
Tumblr media
You anxiously await the obnoxious school bell ringing. You just can’t wait to go home, and finally change out of your outfit. You knew when you got dressed this morning you were going to hate your outfit. You knew it, yet you didn’t seem to care. Yet now, several hours later, you do. The black denim skirt reached to the very tip of your fingers, but it would continuously ride up and the tight white shirt showcased a few of your rolls, and was quite tight in your chest area. Let’s not even start on the little star and moon tights you’re wearing. Everything Feels tight, and is suddenly making you feel quite dysphoric.
The bell rings, and almost instantly you are out of the door. You hurry to your locker to grab the rest of your things before heading over to Billy’s car.
Just as you are about to reach the parking lot, where you already see the car is on and the boys are inside waiting, Randy grabs your wrist to face him. He’s with a few other friends but you don’t know who they are, nor do you care.
“Where you going, sweet cheeks?” Randy asks, making you nearly gag.
“Home? The bell just rang?” You respond.
“Awh? Wanna come to my house first? Dying to know how those fat thighs feel wrapped around my cock.” He winks.
You pull your wrist away, “You disgust me.”
“So does your ugly rolls, popping out of the shirt you’re wearing. You should be lucky he even offers for you. You know the only thing you have going for you is your tits and ass.” Laughs one of Randy’s friends.
You try to shove past them, starting to get upset. You’re used to Randy’s harassment but it still hurts hearing those words. They stop you before You can even get a step past, suddenly forming a sort of barricade to trap you.
“You know, I’m sure all that fat is at least good for a quick thigh or tit job, though, don’t even thing of face riding. You’d be dead in an instant.” The same guy from earlier says, starting to poke at your things.
“Just let me go, please” You try to plead.
“Awh, look at them. It’s pathetic, really” Randy laughs.
He grabs your arm, pulling you against him, and whispers in your ear, “Stop your crying fatass, you know this is all you’re good for. Except it, you’re nothing but a quick fuck. Only good if you’re covered though, seriously, babe, the rolls are hideous.”
You sob as you continue trying to push past them, “Please! I just want to go home.”
“Please, the whore is probably going to her two boyfriends house like the whore she is, can’t even pick one man.” Another one of the guys say, enticing laughs from the rest.
——————Stu & Billy—————————-
The boys are getting frustrated. The bell rang fifteen minutes ago, where the hell are you?
“God, they need to hurry the fuck up.” Billy complains, lighting a cigarette, which he hands to Stu before lighting one for himself.
“I know, they said they’d come straight to us.” Stu whines, pausing slightly before adding in a much more serious voice, “You don’t think something happened to them, do you?”
“Give it five minutes, if they aren’t here by then, then we worry. Okay, Stu?” Billy decides, earning a nod from the blonde boy.
———————You—————————-
You are starting to hyperventilate, you’ve been trapped between these guys for ten minutes and the show no sign of losing interest in making fun of you. Your mind gets filled with worried thoughts, and your ears start ringing slightly as the continue to pick fun at you. You aren’t catching all of the words they’re saying, but you are picking up a few, “Slut”, “whore”, “fatass”, “fatty”, “loser”, “ugly”, “disgusting”, and many other unkind words. You’re scared. You’ve never been this scared, why won’t they let me go?
You’re full on sobbing now, you can’t control it. You’re embarrassed about it, but the tears keep falling.
—————-Stu and billy——————
“Okay, let’s go. Something’s up.” Billy says when the five minutes pass, both him and Stu hurrying out of the car.
The second the get out they see it, a large group of guys standing oddly.
“What the fuck are those guys doing? What are they blocking?” Stu questions.
“I don’t know. That’s not important though, let’s just find y/n” Billy answers.
The start walking towards the building, freezing when they hear the quietest, “please” coming form behind the random guys.
“Randy?” Stu mutters, recognizing one of the males.
They are behind confused, slowly walking towards there. Who was behind messed with and why did it sound like-
“Y/n, c’mon, just let me take you home. You know you want it, I’ll pretend like you’re not just a fat toy.” The boys hear Randy say.
They see red. Why the fuck was a bunch of guys surrounding they’re partner? Quickly, the run over to the guys and push them away, confirming that it is you that was trapped. Billy quickly turns on Randy while Stu immediately comes to you.
“Oh, honey. I’m so sorry. C’mon. Let’s get you to the car. Shhhh, don’t cry, darling.” Stu says, taking the keys from Billy quickly removing you from the scene before Billy nearly kills the guys.
“You do not fucking mess with them again, or I will murder you. Do you understand me?” Billy sneers.
Randy laughs, “I’d like to see you try.”
He shouldn’t have said that. Billy pounces instantly. He’s straddling the boy as he throws punch after punch at the boy. The whole concrete is covered in red and the other guys quickly run. Billy would probably have killed him right there if he didn’t already have plans forming in his head on ways to torture Randy and his friends.
Getting off of him, Billy grabs his collar and drags him upwards before spitting in his face and throwing him back, “Don’t ever even think about them again. Y’hear me? Or I won’t be as nice.”
He quickly walks to the car and spends the rest of the night comforting you and reading you that they think you are the most attractive person they ever met, both physically and mentally. Only waiting until you’re asleep to sneak off and start planning their revenge for you.

oc deep dive with Jude Turner
What uncommon/common fear do they have? If you ask him, he'll try to convince you it's something stupid like bicycles or his teacher's pinky toe after the time she wore sandals to class and it poked out over the strap, but actually he's afraid of his own thoughts and dying alone. Speaking of, anyone single? Wanna make out for a while?
Do they have any pet peeves? People who take everything so seriously. Painful bores. People who are obsessed with World War 2
What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? Rugby boots with mud still in the studs and getting all over the hardwood floor. Charcoal dust and mounds of sketchbooks, three coffee cups he neglected to return to the kitchen two weeks ago.
What do they notice first in a person? Something in their eye that tells him they know how to have fun and get up to trouble. A sense of humour, a nice mouth and teeth.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? 5. Average, baby!
Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? Flight. Oh things are hard? Brb deleting my socials again. Forgot to text back. Oh? Did you email me? Sorry I've been super busy...
Do they come from a big family/are they a family person? It's him and Ivy and their parents really. He's not a family person with regards to his fathers side (they are weird) or his mother's Dublin family. He yearns for the peaceful days at great aunt Maureen's and her four adult children....
What animal represents them best? Monkey.
What is a smell that they dislike? Tequila, Weed, Vomit, in that order.
Have they broken any bones? Of course. He got his hands on a skateboard at 10 and immediately tripped down a flight of concrete steps and shattered his arm bone. Being in a cast was cool though, everyone like, signed it and shit.
How would a stranger likely describe them? Wild, manic, troublesome (words taken directly from parent teacher reports)
Are they a night owl or a morning bird? Surprisingly, a morning person. He got used to being up early to get Ivy ready for school when his mom started going to work at 7:30. He stays up late sometimes, sure, but his inner alarm clock always has him wide awake at 7.
What is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love? Jude is not picky, he's an eater, but don't come at him with those big, wet, brown mushrooms they give you with your hotel breakfast. Not in a million years. Flavours he loves is broad, so I'll choose his ice cream preferences. Pistachio, sea salt, raspberry, cherry.
Do they have any hobbies? Drawing, rugby, playstation, hanging out with friends.
Boom, surprise birthday party! How do they react to surprises? He is overjoyed! You guys did this for me? Whaaaaat?
Do they like to wear jewelry? Have you seen his cute lil earrings?
Do they have neat or messy handwriting? Neat enough, c'mon, he's an artiste. His pen control is exemplary
What are two emotions they feel the most? Boredom and melancholy (in private only, thanks)
Do they have a favorite fabric? Plain old cotton. None of that poly-whatever shit. He doesn't need to be the yellow-sweat-stains guy.
What kind of accent do they have? The weirdest Dublin/American hybrid. At this stage of the story he's pretty much just an Irish guy who says a couple of vowels in a weird-ish way.
This was fun! I'll tag @lynzishell @elderwisp @earthmoonz @stillgotme @rebouks @daniigh0ul @scrapplesims

Friends to Lovers Tournament: Round 1, Side A, Match 9
Tumblr media Tumblr media
propaganda under the cut!
Iruclarazz:
LISTEN THEY ARE THE OT3 TO BEAT ALL OTHER OT3's LIKE THEY HOLD SO MUCH POWER!!!
1. THEY ARE SO FUCKING FLUFFY AND COLOURFUL AND PURE AND ADORABLE AND—*chokes on emotions* anyways they're literally the most wholesome and supportive of all ships like i can't even begin to summarize how much they care for each other
2. THEY CANONLY CALL EACH OTHER SOULMATES and even if clara and azz don't understand what a soulmate is (they're demons) they're just happy to be close to iruma. 
3. whenever one of them is upset or bothered, the other two form a team and they go ALL OUT to lift the third person's mood!!! they try to solve the problem but if that's not possible, they just stay with that person and try to make them feel better so that they can face their problem with a better mood and more strength
4. they're ALWAYS together. and none of them are bothered by it!! and instead of being toxic about the need to stay close, they establish boundaries! like they have their own secrets they can't tell the others and that's totally fine! no pressure at all in their squad
5. listen these three help each other become better people!! like they bring out the best in each other and it's the most wholesome, encouraging, healthy, lovey dovey ship ever!!! like clara becomes more responsible despite her need for chaos bc she wants to make sure azz and iruma can depend on her! azz stops putting up walls and allows people to approach him because he wants to get involved in the other two's lives! and iruma learns how to set boundaries with these two where he could never say no to anyone!! like if that isn't the most awesome and perfect relationship idk what is!!!
6. one tol and two smols that's all.
THERE IS JUST SO MUCH MORE IN CANON THAT SHOWS HOW AWESOME THESE TRIO ARE AS AN OT3 BUT YEAH IT'S THE MOST BEAUTIFUL POLY SHIP I'VE EVER SEEN IN MANGA!!!
Sunnflower:
ok listen their relationship is extremely important to the plot of the game so they get a lot of focus and a lot of the stuff they say abt each other is like????? bro thats kinda fruity ngl??????? theres like. a lot of stuff i could say about them. like a lot. too much actually
so instead ill just, idk summarize their relationship and then give some fun facts abt them
Sunny and Basil are best friends! They're shown to be very close to each other, closer than they are to the rest of their friends. They rely on each other to listen when they need to vent, and like to read books together! Before the events of the game, Sunny and Basil become involved in an incident that basically tears their friend group apart. Basil keeps the secret of their involvement from everyone because he cares too much about Sunny to let him get in trouble. They then don't talk for four years, and spend the entire time pining for each other!
Basil hopes for four years that Sunny will finally come back to him, meanwhile Sunny has retreated into a perfect dreamworld he uses to cope. All of his friends are there, and everyone is happy, and the dreamworld is full of things Basil loves. The most common food item is tofu(Basil's favorite food),  there's an entire race of plant creatures that adore tofu(Basil likes to garden + his favorite food), his garden in the dreamworld is huge and has lots of flowers that represent each of his friends! Also, an important NPC says this abt Sunny and Basil's relationship: "He is special to you. A string of fate ties you together." A string of fate you say? Hmmm, I wonder why they phrased it like that...
Also, when Sunny and Basil finally do start talking again, Basil says stuff like this: "W...Wait... P-Please, SUNNY... Don't leave me... Not again..." "After all this time... you've finally come back for me. But... tomorrow... you're going away. H-HOW COULD YOU DO THAT!?!? That's mean, SUNNY. That's so mean!" Yeah... he's not doing too well...
But don't worry! After a year or two of therapy I'm sure these two can have a happy, healthy relationship!
Obviously I have a lot more to say abt them but it's all literary analysis and context clues and stuff, I just wanted to point out the more obvious stuff!

SCHOOL UNITY: NRC vs. RSA - Part I
Octavinelle - Octatrio/Prefect Poly
-------
“Azul, hypothetical question.” The Prefect said in leu of a greeting when they entered the octomer’s office after their classes had finished for the day.
Their voice was casual but there was an undertone that had the Housewarden looking up from the notes he had been working on. He watched them place their bag on the coffee table absently and drop onto the sofa and turn a smile on him that had the hairs on the back of his neck standing on end.
“Say I, I don’t know, want to murder someone in cold blood with my bare hands.” Azul’s eyebrows rose. “How would I go about doing that without getting caught or at least be able to get away with it legally?”
There was a beat of silence.
“Hypothetically.”
A huff of a laugh escaped Azul’s lips and he stood to join them on the sofa, opening his arms and gladly allowing them to bury into his chest and squeeze their anger out with an embrace.
“And would this hypothetical body I would be helping you bury happen to be a certain useless Headmage?” he asked, tugging off his gloves and then running his fingers through the Prefect’s hair as their much weaker human arms tightened as hard as they could, and they let out a muffled little scream into his shoulder.
Azul let them express their frustrations patiently, his stronger body not bothered in the slightest by their attempts to imagine themself squeezing Crowley until his spine broke in two. He just kept petting their hair until the Prefect let out a sigh and slumped against him with a grumble.
“You know the joint festival things that are going to be happening with RSA? Well apparently it’s been decided that they are going to be coming here first and then the second part of the festival will be held at RSA.” They said, shifting to cuddle properly and kick their shoes off to pull their feet up.
Azul nodded as he reached down to tug their tie loose to allow them to relax better. He and Jade felt comfortable in these sorts of clothes just as much as any other human kind, but the Prefect and Floyd felt stifled when they had to wear it too long. Their jacket joined the discarded tie a moment later before they snuggled back against him once more.
“I am aware, my pearl.” He said, they had been planning on booths and ways to drain the RSA students of their madols, after all.
“Well guess who Crowley has decided should be the representative for Night Raven College.” They said with an exhausted sigh, making Azul jolt at the news.
“What!?” he gaped, looking down at his lover and then up towards the door as Jade stepped in with a tray of drinks.
“Indeed.” The eelmer said, calm as ever but Azul could easily read the annoyance in the line of his shoulders. “It seems that the Headmage has placed our dear Prefect in the official position of Student Body Representative-“ “Without even asking!” “-and therefore given the responsibility of hosting the Housewardens of RSA during the festival and all that entails.”
Azul’s glasses slipped as he looked between his taller lover and the annoyed, pouting one in his arms who was sipping at their tea in a desperate attempt to regain some stability.
“But…this is…you haven’t even been here a YEAR!” he stammered, and oh how the Prefect loved him for not focusing on the fact that they were magicless as most would have.
“He said it’s great training since it’s apparently a position I’ll be keeping because it’s easier for him to give me the job than to try and mediate to the other Housewardens as who deserves it instead.” They explained dryly.
Which…yes, Azul could see how that would be a touchy situation considering more than one Housewarden was a royal and the others had nearly as much political influence. The school was funded by donations and while Azul knew it was far better off than the mage tried to make it seem – there was no tuition to go to NRC after all - he was probably worried about offending someone and cutting off part of the madol flow.
Choosing the Prefect, however, would be a decent alternative with the excuse that their unique situation and position as magicless could be played off as being a ‘mascot’ of sorts without offending families too much. Some might not be happy about it, but it wouldn’t cause the insulted rage that would come from some of the royals otherwise.
Azul heaved a sigh, already realizing that even though it was absolutely ridiculous that their Prefect was being thrown into this…it wasn’t a situation that Crowley was going to back down from. Not when he seemed to have a strange, selective blindness when it came to the care and support of his ‘favorite student’. He had a weekly tea time with them, checking on their studies and even asking about their enjoyment there in NRC, doting on them and even calling them his ‘child’ more than once. Then he would send them off to Ramshackle that he had to be threatened to fix up enough for hot water and central heating.
And somehow, despite how annoyed the Prefect got with the fae (crow?), they still felt a sort of unwilling fondness for him the way they did Professor Crewel as if the two were a set of mismatched parents. Professor Crewel was the responsible parent, of course, and the one that had done the threatening to ensure that Ramshackle was livable.
Crowley was the forgetful father who kept all of their child’s kindergarten drawings and their picture in his wallet but left them alone for weeks at the age of seven because they could ‘take care of the house while he was gone!’.
Azul wished Crewel would file for a divorce and sole custody.
“So, what are the responsibilities that come with this position and what can we do to help, my pearl?” he asked, looking down on their human.
“What? No!” the Prefect said instantly, almost slamming their teacup down on the tray to reach up to cup his cheeks, then smooshed them with a determined pout. “You three are already going to be neck deep in taking care of Octavinelle, the booths, and the Lounge for the festival! I’m not going to let you work yourself to death to help me!”
Jade chuckled fondly as he took a seat beside them, watching bemused as their human threw their leg over Azul’s lap to position themselves there facing him and still squishing and tugging at his cheeks.
Azul couldn’t help but chuckle and reached up to take their hands and pull them away from his abused face.
“Dearest, you can’t expect us to let you be forced to handle such a monumental responsibility on your own?” he reminded them gently.
They crossed their arms over their chest stubbornly.
“Grim said he would help me since we’re a two-in-one.” They said, though the looks that the two sent them said all they needed to about that sentiment.
“Oh, come on, Grim’s gotten a lot better.” They pointed out, but the small smile they were trying to force back betrayed them.
They gave in with a sigh and shrugged. “I know it’s going to be a lot and I am really frustrated at the bird, but I’ll handle it. I don’t want to put even more responsibilities on your shoulders when you guys have so much to do as it is.” They said seriously, their expression falling a bit. “You already do so much for me, and I don’t want to be a burden-ow!”
“Haaaaah, what was that Koebi-chan?” Floyd demanded, pinching, and pulling on the Prefect’s cheeks as he had suddenly appeared looming over the human from behind.
Jade chuckled into his hand as his twin had used the stealth skills that most forgot he possessed to sneak up on their human after slipping into the office silently just in time to hear their words.
The attack wasn’t to the point of bruising, but Floyd wasn’t gentle either as he continued to tug annoyed as the Prefect whined and tried escaping his grasp. Their head fell back against Floyd’s chest, and it was only Azul holding onto their hips that kept them from tumbling off his lap all together.
“Floyd!!! Staahp!” they complained.
“Why? Koebi-chan is saying stupid things again and if their face is going to say stupid things then their face needs to be punished.” He replied mercilessly, tugging on their cheeks once more and eliciting a whine from the Prefect.
Azul found the sight entertaining but he found himself just as irritated as Floyd by what they had said.
Their lover wasn’t a martyr and knew how to stand up for themself, but they were too forgiving and kind for their own good. They also had an unfortunate habit of seeing themself as a burden when in need of even the smallest things or comfort. It was a learned response, and he could tell it was something that was from earlier than coming to their world. He doubted the Headmage helped with how he would bring up his ‘kindness’ and ‘generosity’ at random times or whenever ‘gifting’ something to the Prefect that they inherently deserved and required.
It was something the three merfolk had unanimously agreed they would be stopping.
“Ah-lright!, ah-lright!” they gave in. “Mah stupid fah-ce was being stupid.”
“Damn right.” Floyd said, still not releasing them. “And what was stupid?”
“Ah’m not a burden!” they yelped, sighing in relief when Floyd let go suddenly and dropped himself down between Azul and Jade, shimmying in place and forcing room for himself.
He dragged a pouting Prefect into his lap and proceeded to wrap himself around them while they rubbed at their cheeks, sulking.
“Koebi-chan should know that symbiotes are not burdens.” He said in a huff and burying his face into their hair firmly.
A small, saddened smile pulled on Azul’s lips as he lightly ran his hand over one of the Prefect’s legs that were still stretched across his lap. He knew that feeling. He knew what it was like to see himself as not good enough. Not worth enough. It was something he still struggled with sometimes, but the twins had thrown themselves into proving him wrong and not letting him fall into that mental trap anymore. The Prefect had certainly made their stance clear on the subject while he was recovering from his Overblot.
The fact that their precious little human could, even in passing, feel the same way made him taste acid on his tongue and the warring desire to both eviscerate whoever had caused those beliefs to be born in their mind in the first place and the need to wrap them up in all his ten limbs and hide them away so that no one could ever make them feel like that again.
“Floyd is right, my dear.” He said softly but firmly. “You are never a burden to us. I hope that you don’t believe we would ever think of you as one.”
There was still a small pout on their lips from the aching they were trying to massage away, but he saw their expression soften a little.
“I know you don’t.” they admitted in a small voice before snuggling down more into Floyd’s embrace. “Today’s just been a lot. I’m serious though. I would like to try and handle this on my own, at least at first.”
Azul wanted to argue, was about to try and convince them to let the three of them – or even someone he semi-trusted like Riddle or Vil – to assist them, but the look Jade sent him stopped him. The other tweel leaned in around his brother and added an arm to the ones at their waist and nuzzled into where their neck and shoulder met. He placed a kiss there before smiling and giving a small hum.
“Perhaps a deal could be a solution to this disagreement.” He suggested. “Our strong, competent, and capable Ramshackle Prefect-“ they snorted softly at his obvious attempt to butter them up. “-will do their best to take care of the responsibilities that come with the position of Student Representative, and we will only step in should we see a need.”
“Oh no, the wording of that is way too easy for you guys to slip around.” They rolled their eyes. “How about you agree to let me handle this and I’ll agree to let you help if it starts affecting my health - physical health.”
Azul almost wanted to pout at their catch. They were getting far more meticulous about word choice since being with them. He was normally proud, but it was quite vexing during times like this when it was turned on them.
“Very well, my pearl.” He finally gave in, leaning over to place a kiss on their forehead and leaning his weight against Floyd’s shoulder. “But you shall promise us not to hide if it IS too much, yes?”
“I promise.” They smiled softly, shifting to return the kiss and settle down happily in their tangle of limbs.
Azul was always at his most relaxed like this.
“Hey henchman!”
Azul sighed as the office door was thrown open and the Prefect chuckled fondly, giving him another quick kiss in apology for their partner’s lack of manners or situational awareness.
“I finished the tuna so how long are you gonna be busy cuddling before we go home?” Grim asked, ducking under Floyd’s propped up legs and reaching up to climb his way into his partner’s lap, completely ignoring what he might be interrupting.
The merfolk shifted to give him room and the Prefect helped pull him into their arms better despite the exasperation from their lovers.
“We can head back now. We’ve got to get some paperwork filled out and Crowley said he would have it sent to the dorm.” They said, nuzzling his head absently. “Did you at least thank Floyd for making you food?”
“Oh, yeah, thanks fishsticks, it was good.”
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Catfish is getting kind of bratty. I should-“ but the Prefect cut him off with a quick kiss of his own and began to detangle themselves from the pile.
“Thank you for everything, I really needed it.” They smiled fondly once they were on their feet and looking down at the three with Grim in their arms. “I promise I’ll be alright and I’ll make sure to keep you guys updated.”
Floyd pouted, making grabby hands at them and earning a laugh from the human before they leaned over again and gave each of them a final kiss.
“You are always welcome, angelfish.” Jade smiled, tucking a strand of hair behind their ear.
“Of course. We are here whenever you need us.” Azul agreed, standing to adjust his suit back into place properly.
He took one of their hands and place a kiss to the back gently.
“I’m going to walk Koebi-chan back to the dorm.” Floyd said with a large grin, swiping up the Prefect’s bag and clothing items before rushing them out the door.
“You had better be back in time for your shift Floyd!” Azul called after them quickly. “Floyd! I know you heard me! You’re on cooking duty tonight! Floyd!”
The only answer was the sound of cackles disappearing towards the lounge exit and the Prefect trying to convince him to give them a chance to put their shoes back on first.
Azul heaved a sigh, rubbing at his forehead and mentally preparing to adjust the shift roster in the likely event that Floyd mysteriously didn’t return until after closing.
It earned him a chuckle from Jade as the eelmer started gathering up the now cold drinks.  
“Don’t fret, Azul, he will return.” The lack of assurance that it would be in time to work was all the confirmation the octomer needed and he huffed when Jade leaned down to tilt his chin up into a slow kiss. “I will handle the kitchen tonight while you make plans.” He assured him calmly.
“Yes, yes, thank you Jade.” Azul answered, wishing he had been able to keep them all in his arms a bit longer.
He turned back to his desk and began his homework again to get it out of the way. They had given their word to the Prefect but that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to be prepared in they DID need their help.
He didn't like leaving things up to chance.
“I’ll admit,” Jade said a few minutes later when he returned with fresh tea and setting the cup in Azul’s reach. “-you handled that quite a bit better than I expected.”
Azul raised an eyebrow at the taller male.
“I’d hardly force our help on them if it would truly upset them.”
“Oh, no, I mean about the Student Representative position.” He smiled, his expression telling the octomer instantly that there was something he was missing that Jade was very aware of and enjoying.
“While I don’t agree with the Headmage thrusting that much responsibility on a student not even complete with their first year – let alone from another world – I have faith that they will do an admirable job.”
“I absolutely agree, of course.” He continued to smile, the corners stretching even farther. “They will make for the best welcome party for the RSA students that we have to offer.”
Azul’s brow furrowed at the wording.
“I’m sure the RSA Housewardens will be absolutely charmed. Prince Rielle is always happy to make new human friends, after all.”
“FUCK!”
------------------------------------------------
Hi guys, this is the next part of School Unity but it was getting kind of long (they all kind of went on a tangent :/ ) so I'm posting the first part now and I'll do the second later.
I really love the way Writingerror does the Octatrio, especially Floyd, and 'Yuu and the Power of Magic' was the first twst fanfic I ever read (like, the highest standards from the very beginning!) so a lot of my internal characterization of Floyd comes from that. I also love the 'symbiote' idea and think that Floyd really would use a lot of those types of phrases to describe what the four of them have even if it's not shown as romantic in YatPoM.
Definitely go read their stuff! it's amazing! And I hope you like this and I can't wait to show the Prefect meeting RSA (especially Rielle)!
<3

Ever since the founding of Thebes, it was rare for its princesses to leave its walls. If it had been up to her father, Megara would have stayed, too, but there was one thing even Kreon knew. If Megara wanted to leave, she would.
Incidentally, the only thing that got her out of the city was a chance to cheer for her high school. The curse on Thebes did not extend to athletic competitions, so in view of their inability to win a war, every school in the city was eager to send their young men off. And if young men from the most turbulent Greek city state had to rush off and represent their polis, they would do it with all the finest cheerleaders.
Since Thebans had a reputation for terrible luck, they approached Athens in a series of wagons while pretending they had any shot in Asphodel of returning with a laurel. On the plus side, Megara reasoned to her fellow cheerleaders, at least they got out of Thebes.

TVC Fic Rec Friday ✨✨✨
Exposed by @hekateinhell Armand/Lestat de Lioncourt/Louis de Point du Lac ✦ Words: 5,066 ✦ Explicit
Listen, I know I'm over a year late to the game on this one but it's so good. I never knew how much I needed this poly in a high school AU. Horny teenagers just feels like the natural state of these guys (or at least Armand and Lestat — sorry Louis).
Kiss It Better by @uncivilcivilservice Armand/Daniel Molloy ✦ Words: 1,664 ✦ Mature
Weird boyfriend hijinks! For real, this feels like a scene that could've been in QotD. It's so very them — sweet and romantic, while still being characteristically bloody.
Air Catcher by @covenofthearticulate Lestat de Lioncourt/Louis de Point du Lac ✦ Words: 8,656 ✦ Explicit
This is another one that is long overdue but, oh my god, it's one of the best Louis/Lestat fics I've ever read... There is so much to unpack in their relationship and this is such a beautiful look into it.
Vision of the Damned by @mothmage Armand/Daniel Molloy ✦ Words: 6,904 ✦ Teen
This was a punch in the gut! An absolutely beautifully written look into that QotD scene. Just the tenderness with which Armand cleans Daniel before giving him the blood is so painful and so good!
Savage Fruit by murmurime Nicolas de Lenfent/Lestat de Lioncourt ✦ Words: 1,211 ✦ General
I'm already such a sucker for Nickistat but this fic just represents their tragic romance so well. It completely embodies the line "the little miracle of love turned into hate." Honestly feels so real to how they ended things in TVL.
If I failed to tag the author or if you don't want to be tagged, please don't hesitate to let me know and I'll remove it/make myself a note for future recs!

the epis-key to your heart!
Relationships: CJC x Jung Yeseo, Cédric Riester/Jung Yeseo, Original Jesse Venetiaan/Jung Yeseo, Christelle de Sarnez | Ham Ga-in/Jung Yeseo (possible vague QPR/poly endgame); Jung Eunseo & Jung Yeseo.
Gen + Multi; Multiple Chapters (Chapter One: 12.3k)
Hogwarts AU, Triwizard Tournament; Hufflepuff!Yeseo, Hufflepuff!Eunseo, Slytherin!Jesse, Durmstrang!Cédric, Beauxbatons!Christelle.
SUMMARY:
Three wizards are chosen from three different wizarding schools to represent their institutions in the infamous Triwizard tournament:
Cédric Riester from Durmstrang Institute; Christelle de Sarnez from the Beauxbatons Academy of Magic; and finally, Jesse Venetiaan from the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
—What Jung Yeseo doesn’t expect, however, was for his younger sister Eunseo to be chosen as a fourth champion representative of Hogwarts alongside Slytherin’s Jesse Venetiaan.
(It’s enough that Yeseo has to worry about his little sister suddenly being thrown into a competition that might as well be deadly—but now he has to face the attention of all these other champions, too??)

THEME: Space Adventures
Spaceships, laser-swords, and interstellar bounties - this week's recommendations has to do with life in space, whether it's a serious adventure or just a little truck stop.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Last Fleet, by Black Armada Games.
The last of humanity are fleeing across space, pursued by the implacable inhuman adversary that destroyed their civilization. They're outnumbered and outgunned. Supplies are running low. The actions of a brave few could be all that stands between humanity and extinction.
Welcome to the Last Fleet.
Last Fleet is a PbtA tabletop roleplaying game where you play brave pilots, officers, engineers, politicians and journalists struggling to hold the human race - and themselves - together under unbelievable pressure. The game focuses on action, intrigue and drama in this high-stakes situation. You'll fight space battles, search for enemy infiltrators, tackle supply shortages and navigate faction politics. You'll strive against your own self-doubt and sometimes crack under the stress.
This game uses playbooks inspired by the Zodiac, which means that characters are separated by personality, rather than their skills or job. Your stats are reflective of this, with traits such as Smooth to indicate your charm, Warmto reflect your support, and Hard to represent your resistance. Each character has a Pressure track, which will indicate how close you are to reaching a Breaking Point, which acts as risky, but necessary way to relieve personal tension. If you’re interested in intense, interpersonal drama, but in space, Last Fleet might be the game for you.
Revenant World, by Vagabond Pen & Paper.
The gods are dead, the New World Order is up and running, and trans-dimensional portals are interrupting morning commutes. Welcome to the city of Polis. Revenant World is a tabletop role-playing game where you and a group of friends will take on the roles of Vagabonds-- rebellious adolescents from Polis just doing their best to navigate the treacherous halls of high school as well as the alien worlds of the Microcosmic Plane.
Boasting a robust, fast-paced combat system, freeform crafting mechanics, and a unique two-part Class and magic system that gives rise to 1,920 unique abilities, Revenant World is your portal to a vibrant science fantasy world filled with undead gods, uptight law enforcement, fearsome monsters, and teen angst in outer space. Monster hunting, teenage angst, a diverse universe of alien life... this game has it all. If you're a fan of Homestuck, there's a lot of vibes that may resonate with you here. The game prides itself on the character customization options, as well as its expansive crafting system. If you want something a bit out-of-the-box in terms of theme and setting, you might want to check this game out.
See You, Space Cowboy, by Tidal Wave Games.
SEE YOU, SPACE COWBOY… (abbreviated CUSC) is a tabletop roleplaying game for 3-6 players set in outer space where the players create characters called Outlaws: bounty hunters who fly across the galaxy in search of their next payday. You create situations where they land in hot water, manipulate people, and start gunfights, all while dealing with their debt and trauma.
The world is handled by the Bandleader, who creates the bounties and challenges for the players to overcome, guided by the results of the dice. Player character Traits are made up of a d6, d8, d10 or d12, which they roll in a sticky situation that we call a Break. They can also modify these Breaks with their Talents or Gear. No matter what size die you roll, a result of 4 or lower is a failure, a result of 5 to 9 is a partial success, and a 10 or above is a full success. Failure can also be assisted by a press-your-luck mechanic called Juice. The mechanics for this game are inspired by PbtA (in regards to staggered successes), and Savage Worlds (namely, the variation in dice rolled). The game manual also contains plenty of inspiration for character names and bounties, and there's even a bounty generator on the designer's website, so you'll never be without a ne'er-do-well to hunt down. There's also a lot of concrete advice for GM-ing, which can be a great help for new GM's or even just to understand where the game writers are coming from.
The Long Shift, by Caro Ascersion.
Few things thrive out here in the Caliper Belt. Its sparse asteroids are flecks of lifeless stone along an inky strip of space. Back in the day, it used to glow with streaks of light as massive freighters hauled their cargo from outpost to outpost. But the ore dried up, and these days the Caliper Belt is little more than an interstellar shortcut.
Only spot in the Belt still worth visiting these days is the infamous Mari’s 26-Hour Cosmic. One part gas station, one part diner, one part truck stop, one part card café, assembled from old spaceships and satellites and tethered to a hunk of rock: Mari’s is a barnacle that refuses to die.
The Long Shift is a tabletop story game for two to five players. Using a standard deck of playing cards, players take on the roles of employees at Mari’s 26-Hour Cosmic, an interstellar rest stop in a derelict asteroid belt. Over the course of the game, players will also take turns playing travelers who visit the rest stop, bringing news of the world beyond.
If you want a more lighthearted game, or a game that simply has lower stakes than most of the other games on this list. Using a deck of playing cards, players will take turns embodying different roles, while also crafting stories that will build the world around them into something greater than anything any one of their characters will likely experience. If you want to insert something light-hearted into the middle of a campaign, or even just pick up a fun one-shot to run with friends, The Long Shift might be right for you.
Xenopolitan, by Willy Elektrix.
The year is 2099. Ingress is a city with 90 million people from thousands of different species and planets. It flies in the skies above Earth and is a hub for extraterrestrials conducting business with various Earthling corporations and governments. Players are denizens of this sprawling, cosmopolitan city, and their backgrounds and goals can be as diverse as the city’s population.
Xenopolitan is an RPG about everyday life in an alien metropolis. Live the life of an extraterrestrial person with real world problems. Play as a human or extraterrestrial entrepreneur, student, artist, social worker, politician, reporter, criminal, detective, or anything else, and experience life in this galactic future-scape.
This is a slice-of-life roleplaying game, about overcoming the daily challenges of any regular galactic citizen. Based in the city of Ingress, this game uses the Fudge system (a parent of the Fate system) and relies on four six-sided dice similar to Fate dice. A character’s abilities are ranked in effectiveness from Superb to Terrible, which may help bump the results of the dice roll towards a more favourable result. The game also makes use of a d10 for a Luck dice, which adds a layer of complication or benefit to the initial roll. 
Nearly half of the book contains setting descriptions, while the rules themselves take up only about 5 pages. When it comes to character creation, there are plenty of small pieces that you can put together to design a custom alien of your very own!
Mothership, by Tuesday Knight Games.
Mothership is a sci-fi horror roleplaying game where you and your crew try to survive in the most inhospitable environment in the universe: outer space! You'll excavate dangerous derelict spacecraft, explore strange unknown worlds, exterminate hostile alien life, and examine the horrors that encroach upon your every move.
Mothership has four basic classes that give you specific Save values (special resistance, precious in a survival game) as well as alterations to starting Stats. Skills come with each class but can be increased with a point-buy system. Throughout the game, you’ll interact with horrors that steadily increase your Stress level, pushing you closer and closer to Panic. You can relieve stress by resting, making successful Fear saves, and engaging in restful activities. If you do reach a level of Panic, you’ll have to make a Stress check, and try not to take on a Panic Effect. The more Panic Effects you accumulate, the harder it is to survive the next mission.
Mothership is a pretty well-established game in the indie scene. The player’s guide is pay-what-you-want, while the modules released for the game are reasonably priced. There’s also a wealth of third-party content, for any flavour of space horror that interests you. If you like blood-curdling horror, characters that will likely slowly succumb to the darkness around them, and a system that is extremely wallet-friendly, Mothership might be for you.

I Don't Know Which One is Love Volume 1 Review
Note - This Manga currently has not been officially translated, you should bother Manga companies to release Volume 1 then buy it if you end up liking it too.
Tumblr media
So this is a manga I saw on Pixiv randomly browsing Yuri and then I had to find scanslations cuz this art featured above made me think, "Poly lesbians, I'm in". It didn't end up being that but a lesbian Harem manga which has potential to go into the Polyamarous route, I hope it does but for Volume 1, I accept a bit of monogamy brain. Plus it's by the creator of Cheery Amnesia which is the series that helped me start to deal with my fear of memory loss and just a story I love a lot.
The story starts off by showing a bit of lesbian reality, the protagonist getting rejected by her long term crush in high school when she finds out she got a boyfriend. Her dreams and heart crushed she is determined to get a girlfriend as she enters college. 5 women meet her each of which instantly start to fall for her. Some are more blunt while others are more subdued, we get a look at each in their own chapter with chapter 1 and chapter 6 being chapters where we get to see a higher amount of the girls and even a little bit of the interaction. There is a flow between the girls in her new college life and it moves smoothly.
Romance here is very fast pace, our protagonist is in love instantly and most the women are falling for her instantly and falling deeper the most they hang out. So far we haven't gone super super deep into any character but we have seen some interiority for each of the 5 women. I really enjoy the blazing hot pace and much prefer it to slow burn and this is a thing that really makes this series stand out to me. The first volume ending with someone asking her to be her girlfriend and then another girl walking into the room.
Tumblr media
I think this story really shows a cute sense of humor, gags are mostly in over the top reactions and great facial reactions but it's solid for a story that is trying to keep a fast pace, it doesn't need big jokes. The art style is very cute but not in a way that makes the horniness creepy, everyone is clearly an adult and drawn like them. As of chapter 7 the horny doesn't turn into sex and it is mostly people desiring other people. I like that each girl represents on of the 5 senses in their desire for Mei [our protag], it's a cute way to short hand a difference in attraction. It's rare to get a bigger look into desire and it is something most harems totally fail to do.
This story features Student/Teacher relationships as one of the 5 relationships. While it doesn't bother me at all when their both adults and as of this volume because of the power dynamics she actively choses to not go further with the student, yet. I know this is a very potentially triggering subject so I think anyone going in should know, hey if you don't like this, it's there maybe skip this one. I should also warn that there is a character who is not really following consentful boundaries, our protagonist likes it and is pretty happy about it but still this is also potentially upsetting.
Personally I really loved this manga and I really want to see more of it, I hope it's successful. I have worries about a potential forced "I can only have one GF" route as a polyam as fuck girl I can't relate to that. What I can relate to is a bunch of girls being in love with me and me loving them back. I really hope to see more of that going forward but this volume served as a perfect introduction to the characters an world and I hope we can see these loves all develop and bloom.
5/5 Stars
