day 7 of event prompts by @gluttonykinedits: a character that reminds you of the sin of wrath or a green character.
okay so her kids get killed by some members of a species called the scavengers so she swears revenge on all scavengers and blows them up with explosives and there are these things called karma gates where you can't pass through the game if your karma isn't high enough but hers is permanently stuck at 0 so she drags the dead bodies of scavengers through the gates to pass she's epic and is also the only slugcat referred to as female by the devs (although in a noncanon joke game) so yay violent women go play rain world ok bye

"You might not know who will find this tape and watch it or if anyone ever will, but whoever might find it will see that the days you and Taehyung spent together were bright."
Pairing: Vampire!Taehyung x Witch!Reader
Genre: established relationship!AU, Slice of Life, Fluff, Romance
Warnings: they're in love :(, running in the rain, kissing the rain, hugging in the rain, yeah there's rain if y'all didn't know yet lmao, a romantic little holiday, non-sexual nudity, sharing of a shower to warm up, they're playing dress up in the living room, they pretend to be newly weds, slow dancing, so much laughter and giggles and happiness, like besties i might actually sob this is so romantic, also she is smaller than him i'm sorry besties i know i normally try not to add too many height descriptions but i'm smaller than tae and i needed to feel something hahahah a bitch just wanted to be immersed âđťđ
Wordcount: 2.7k
a/n: this is based on anonie's idea and inspired by IU's song. i love him so much, you guys. i miss him so much, i might actually start crying :( have fun besties, this is so lovely and sweet đ
âQuick! We have to be quick!âÂ
âTae, slow down please. You know that I could just open us a portal?âÂ
âNo. It wonât work. Quick, we are almost there.â
You and he are running, trying to escape the inescapable. Your hand is clutched in hisâ. He is leading the way, looking over his shoulder every third step to make sure you are still keeping up with him.Â
You barely are at this point. It is difficult to see. Thick stripes of his hair stick to his face, your clothes stick to your bodies. The trees shake above your heads. The birds had stopped singing a long time ago.
âHow far? Tae, I canât run anymore.â
âJust past this clearing. One last timeâ, he promises and looks back front.Â
The end of the forest is within reach. One. Two. Three steps and you have left it behind. The inescapable still follows you, making it hard to see.Â
âThere! Itâs there!â you call out and point at the small house in the distance.Â
Taehyung turns on his heels, âone last time. Comeâ, he says and runs off. His hand slides from yours this way. He is so much faster than you.
âTae! Wait for me, Iâm not that fast!â you call after him, stumbling through the meadow.
He throws his arms over his head and laughs, twirling and skipping in the high grasses.Â
The storm surprised you. It wasnât supposed to rain today. That is why you and he went on this forest walk in the first place. You were deep in the woods, surrounded by nature and with the song of bird keeping you company, when the weather changed drastically and rain began pouring down. You were soaked within minutes. No matter how fast you ran, you couldnât outrun it. You still ran. Hand in hand and with your visions blurry from the water.Â
It was fun at first, but soon became less fun. You were soaked and you were cold and you wanted to be back at the house.Â
Taehyung is by the lowest stairs of the front porch, watching you run to him. He is bouncing on the spot, encouraging you to speed up with squeaky cheers.Â
You and he left the estate behind for the sake of going on a little holiday. Taehyung asked one of his vampire friends if they could rent him one of his forest houses for a few days and off you went. It is just you and Taehyung here, surrounded by forest and the steep cliffside with the ocean in the back.
You reach Taehyungâs side. He meets you in the middle, picking you off the ground by your waist. He twirls with you. The force of the twirls swings your legs high in the air until it feels as if you were flying.Â
You squeak in laughter, holding tightly onto his shoulders as Taehyung makes you fly.
âI have you nowâ, he laughs.
âThis is so much fun!â you squeak, throwing your head back as around you, the world blurs.Â
He stops once your heads are dizzy, using the momentum to swing your legs past his body and back again to repeat it with the other side. He did this move a million times before whenever you and he went swing dancing. It never loses its spark. You are still squeaking and giggling as if it is the first time he is doing it.
Taehyung is laughing just as much. His face is contorted in happiness, his eyes barely want to stay open from smiling so brightly.Â
He keeps you in his arms once he stopped swinging you, holding you under your butt and gazing up at you. You caress his shoulders and the nape of his neck, looking down at him. He is a little blurry in your vision because your head needs to recover from being twirled so much, but you donât mind. You have Taehyung to keep you safe.
âI love when you do thatâ, you tell him.
âMe too. Oh darling, this was so much fun.â
âYeah, it wasâ, you say, flinching in sync with him when sudden thunder and lightning strikes the earth at the same time, âholy cow, that was so loud.â
âI think it might be time for us to go insideâ, Taehyung says.
âYeah, I think so tooâ, you snicker.
Taehyung grins and turns to carry you inside.
You laugh, âare you going to carry me?â
âOf course. It is the least I can do after dragging you along like this.â
âYeah true. You did drag me quite a bit, you big meanie.âÂ
âBut you must admit that it was terribly fun to run in the rain.â
âYes, it was. Iâm cold now though. I really need something to warm me up.â
âWorry not, I shall warm you up in no time.â
âYou shall?â you giggle.
âMh-hm of course. This is what I am here forâ, he says with a playful lift of his brows.
âOh Tete, you cutieâ, you smile, snuggling your face into the crook of his neck. You rub it against him this way, letting out little sounds of comfort.
Taehyung loves the affection. You give off the image of a love drunk cat this way. Taehyung really, really loves when you are this way.Â
With one hand under your butt, he opens the door and slips inside the small cottage. He locks the door and with it, turns the storm into an outside friend. It grumbles and rumbles in a constant melody, lighting up the darkening day with flashes of bright electricity every now and then.
Taehyung sometimes listens to thunderstorms and thinks of you. You love thunderstorms. Taehyung sometimes listens to thunderstorms and thinks of you and as he does, he places roles onto the different elements of natureâs sky showers. You are the lightning while he is the thunder, because you will always come first while he only exists because of you.
Taehyung sets you down in front of the shower. He disappears from your side for just a second to turn on the water, then returns. He touches you, running his big hands up your waist until he has your upper back under his palms. He smiles at you, blinking his eyes slowly like a cat in love.
âMay I undress you?â he asks.
âYesâ, you allow him and lift your arms.
Taehyung takes off your clothes with utmost care. Your body is sacrilegious to him. Unwrapping it must happen with respect and tender love, for you should never ever feel as if the beautiful vessel for your soul was nothing but desirable flesh to him.
He throws your wet upper clothing onto the tiled floor and lowers his lips to your right shoulder so he could worship the paths of it with tender kisses. You sigh his name in reaction, sliding your hands under his soaked jumper.
âYou are beautifulâ, he whispers and lifts his head again. He rises his arms, allowing you to take off his jumper. He has to lower himself a little when you reach his head, giggling with you because he thinks itâs adorable that you couldnât reach.
âTiny darling oneâ, he teases, earning himself a nudge to his chest.
âYouâre just too tallâ, you throw back and laugh when he wraps his arms around you to nuzzle his face into the crook of your neck. You squeak and cackle, fleeing him as much as you press into him, âyour hairâs so cold and wet, Taeâ, you whine.
âI know, oh I know. Quick, letâs undress and get under the waterâ, he says and facing each other, you each take off your pants.
You discard them on the tiles as well, stepping into the shower afterwards. Taehyung lets you enjoy the water first because you are his lightning. You tilt your head up, closing your eyes and smiling softly. You are so beautiful. Oh, he feels jealous of the water kissing your face and the warmth touching your skin.
He reaches out, resting his hands on the softest part of your waist. You open your eyes, looking up at him. He feels vast of air for a blink of an eye.
âCome inside, Taeâ, you tell him and drag him under the water by his waist.
Your bodies connect, your skins finally share one warmth.
âMhmâ, Taehyung lets out and tilts his head back so the water can trickle down on his face.
âItâs so warm, isnât it?â you ask, gazing up at him. He is so beautiful.
âItâs so wonderful. Oh, I felt the cold within my bonesâ, he says, lowering his head so he could meet your eyes again.
âMe too. I donât regret it however.â
âMe neither, my darlingâ, he says and closes the small distance between you and him by hugging you against his chest.
You melt into him, closing your eyes and wrapping your arms around him. You rest your hands on his back while he cradles the back of your head and traces your spine. You and he sway from side to side slowly, sharing the warm water while outside it storms.
Being cold with him will always be okay, because at the end of it, you and he will share warmth again. There is truly no sweeter future than this.
You and he dry the otherâs hair after the shower. You loved each other for long enough to know how to do it perfectly. You learned the language of his hair, while in return he learned yours. You know how to touch, what to use and where to start. You come first of course because you are his lightning. He comes second, leaning into your palm when you cradle his cheek and call him beautiful.
You wrap the other in a soft bathing robe afterwards, leaving the bathroom together. The storm and the passage of time darkened the sun by now and so you turn on the lights to see.
âI want to drink some tea. Do you want a cup as well?â you ask him.
âI would love to, thank youâ, he says and points down the hallway, âI shall get clothes for us. I promise to get only the warmest of jumper for you.â
âAlright, my darling. Thank youâ, you say and kiss his lips chastely.
You and he part ways for only a few moments. You use it to prepare tea and he uses it to get clothes. Just like you had agreed to do.
The tea has finished brewing when Taehyung enters the kitchen.
âMy darlingâ, he makes his presence known in a soft spoken voice.
You turn, meeting the lens of a camcorder.
âWhatâs this?â you ask him, âdarling, why are you wearing a suit?â
âI found it. Alongside this camera and this dressâ, he explains, lowering the camera for now. He slides a white dress from his shoulder, handing it to you.
âA wedding dress?â you ask him.
âI do not know who it belonged to once, but it is your size. The suit is my size as wellâ, he says and smiles shyly, âdo you want to put it on? For only a little while?â
You feel your heart flutter. With a fond smile on your lips, you nod your head.
âDonât peak. If we pretend to be newlyweds, we have to follow the rules.â
âYes, true. I shall meet you in the living roomâ, Taehyung says and turns away with a happy skip in his steps.
You watch him with a fluttering pulse. Taehyung is such a tender person at heart. His soul is colours of golden oranges and warm yellows like that of a young sunset seeing the world for the first time. Only he would think of something like this. Only he would see no strangeness in pretending to be married and he was right. There was no strangeness in it.
The dress smells like lavender and violets. It looked too small at first, but then you slipped it on and it fit as it was made for you. The dress smells like lavender and violets and perhaps just a little like magic. Perhaps that would explain why it found you and Taehyung when it did.Â
You abandon the mugs of tea because there was something else keeping you warm now. The excitement of being with Taehyung.
âTae?â you call for your lover, âare you ready?â
âI amâ, Taehyung answers you from the living room. Lively music accompanies his voice. He must have put on a record.
With a racing heart, you step through the threshold.
Taehyung stands at the end of the room by the lit fireplace. The camcorder is propped on some books, filming the scene unfolding.
âMy darlingâ, he gasps and exhales shakily, âmy darling, oh, look at you.â
âHow do I look?â you ask him and grab the dress on two spots so you could twirl and swing it as you dance to him.Â
He meets you in the middle, sweeping you off your feet as he grabs you in the midst of your jump. You squeak, throwing your head back as Taehyung twirls you in the small living room.
âOh my beautiful darling, my sweetest light. No art could ever capture the beauty of you. My darling, oh my darlingâ, he gushes and laughs, gazing up at you with sparkling eyes.
âIâm getting dizzy, Taeâ, you squeak with tears of happiness welling up in the corners of your eyes.
Taehyung stops twirling, sliding you down his body gently until your tiptoes touch the ground. He keeps you close, running his hands along your torso lovingly. His eyes are glistening, gazing at you with soul-consuming love in them.
âYou bring light into my lifeâ, he speaks softly.
âI do?â
âYou do. Oh darling, you doâ, he smiles with his eyes, âyou truly do.â
âYou make life brighter as well, my darlingâ, you say, caressing his chest gently, âand you look so handsome in your suit.â
âI look miniscule in your light, my darling. Oh I want to pick you up and twirl you until the world stops turning.â
âPlease donât. Iâd probably throw upâ, you laugh, making Taehyung chuckle and scrunch his nose.
âThen at least show the camera, please my darlingâ, he says and turns you to where the camera stands. He pulls you close, resting his head against yours, âthis is my darling, dear future person who might find this tape. Say hello.â
âHello there, future personâ, you say, doing a little courtesy. You crack up afterwards, looking at Taehyung, âthis is so silly.â
âNo it isnâtâ, he says and drags you closer to the camera. He uses the momentum to tug you against him, squishing his cheek with yours, âthis is my dearest darling, my universeâ, he says and kisses your cheek, âI love her so muchâ, he adds and hugs you tightly.
You giggle, snuggling into him. Taehyung picked a fitting nickname when he called you his light, because your smile in this moment could light up even the darkest of days.
âI love you too, my darlingâ, you tell him, turning in his arms to kiss his lips, ânow may I have this first dance with you, my husband?â
Taehyung giggles, lifting his shoulders to his ears shyly. He nods his head vigorously, laying his hands into yours. You drag him away to a free space, beginning your dance with a twirl of him. He laughs loudly, falling into your arms with his head thrown back in joy.
âHow was that for a twirl?â you ask him, guiding him to the music.
âIt was perfect. Oh darlingâ, he rests his cheek on your shoulder, pulling you close, âI am so happy. My beautiful wifeâ, he says and giggles, âit has a wonderful ring to it.â
You close your eyes as your fingers begin playing with his hair.
âIt really has, my darling husband.â
Taehyung giggles. You join him. You and he will dance until the tea is cold and the camcorder falls asleep.
You might not know who will find this tape and watch it or if anyone ever will, but whoever might find it will see that the days you and Taehyung spent together were bright.

sold to the 1975 đâđź
a/n: i spent way too much fucking time on this and literally no one deserves to be subjected to this yet here we are. GOODBYE. (this is my legacy...)
when i open my eyes in the morning, the world feels different. the birds donât chirp like they usually do, the sky is grey and leaves on the tree outside seem wilted and dead. still i drag myself out of my bed and trudge to the bathroom.Â
the bags under my eyes are pronouncedâa result of cleaning up after my mother when she returns home from her late night clubbing sessions. my lifeless blue orbs (đľđđľ) stare back at me. thereâs no spark in them anymore⌠i used to be the curious girl who found beauty in everything. now⌠i can barely look at myself in the mirror.Â
a heavy thudding on the door interrupts my depressive spiral.Â
âautumn raine! open this door right now,â my mother slurs, mixing up her words and the syllables of my name andâ
âhave you died in there?â
the banshee shriek gets me moving. i toss my hair in a messy bun and throw on an old band t-shirtâradiohead, my own little inside joke since no one else seemed to know the band. other girls my age fawned over taylor swift and boys who barely looked old enough to be in high school. i felt like an old soul.Â
âautumn!â another sharp rap on the door. âwe have guests.â
guests? at 8 am? that piques my curiosity.Â
âcoming!â i reply and shimmy into my skinny jeans.Â
i open my door and come face to face with my motherâs fuming nostrils. if my situation werenât so pathetic and sad iâd almost find it funny.Â
she takes my arm in a vice-like grip and smiles an ugly smile.Â
âwhat have i done to be cursed with a child like you, huh? you couldnât dress up even for today.â
âwhy, whatâsââ
âhush now!â she chides, âgo put on some lipstick and meet me downstairs in two minutes.â
she pushes my back into my room and shuts the door before i can tell her that i donât own any make up. the most i can find is some tinted lip balm and old, crusty mascara. the only jewellery i can find is the heart shaped necklace from my dead father, so i quickly put it on. between that and my tattered old converse, i feel like the prettiest girl in the world.Â
i roll my eyes at my sarcasm and make my way downstairs.Â
the stairs creek in a familiar way and i donât even notice that something feels way out of the ordinary until itâs too late.Â
i donât even notice the four men sitting on our torn old sofa until iâm right in front of them.Â
my mother looks at me with a saccarine smile. âbe a darling and make some tea for our guests, autumn.â
âno, that wonât be necessary,â one of them cuts in and for the first time i look at them properly.Â
the one whoâd just spoken is smaller in comparison to the other three. his arms are littered with tattoos, his hair curly and going in every possible direction. his eyes look hard and cold and brown.Â
the other three nod in unison.Â
âwe need to finish the transaction and get going,â he speaks again and mother pales slightly.Â
theâŚtransaction?
âof course,â she smiles a fake smile and wrings her hands together.Â
âiâm sorry, whatâsââ
âautumn!â i shut up the instant she glares at me. i know that look. donât speak until youâre spoken to.Â
âyou havenât told her?â the other one speaks up. his voice is much deeper than his friendâs. his whole vibe is more intense than the rest of them. heâs all sharp cheekbones and bleached, buzzed hair and chipped nail polish. not a man of many words but something tells me people listen when he speaks.Â
âi⌠of course i h-have,â my mother stutters and throws me a look. âshe knows, donât you, sweetheart? tell me.â
tell them what?!Â
my heart hammers in my chest and i try to swallow the dryness away. ây-yes. i knowâ
all at once four pairs of striking orbs are on me and i blush from the intensity of their gazes. (đ¤đđ¤ đ¤đđ¤ đ¤đđ¤ đľđđľ) all the attention in the room is on me and with horror i realise they expect me to speak further.Â
âshe t-told me,â i stutter out and smile at my mother who looks like sheâs swallowed a lemon.Â
âand did she tell you who we are?â
i think about nodding again but thereâs no way i can fib this. the truth it iâve never seen these men before in my entire life. all i know is that if i went along with my motherâs lie, things might be good for me. even if itâs temporary.Â
hesitantly, i shake my head.Â
âwe are the 1975,â the curly-haired man speaks and i cock my head to the side. what an odd little name⌠âand youâve been sold to us.â
â
âsold?!â i screech as soon as theyâre out of earshot.Â
âungrateful bitch,â she hisses back, âkeep your voice down! iâve taken care of you for twenty years and this is how you repay me?âÂ
âtaken careâTAKEN CARE OF ME?â i bellow, unable to keep it down anymore. âall you did was drown yourself in a bottle of wine every night and left your child alone to take care of everything on her own. and now youâre asking me to repay you?!â
âdonât act like youâre a special little gem. the girl down the street was sold to five people last year and she went without any complains.â
my blood boils at the mention of her. lila rose⌠the girl down the street. no one had heard from her in a year and no one cared enough to find out anything.Â
âdonât bring her into this,â i retort. the air around me feels charged and my entire body feels alive. never in my life have i talked to my mother like this before and now that i do, i feel⌠alive.Â
i laugh at the irony. the most free i have ever felt in my life is after being sold to four men i do not know.Â
my motherâs hand raises above her head and i know whatâs comingâwonât be the first time sheâs slapped me. the air around me shifts with the force of it and i flinch away, tightly closing my eyes. i brace myself for a slap⌠that never comes.Â
slowly, bewildered, i open i eyes and come face to face with a⌠back?Â
âyou will not touch our property,â the man speaks and this is the first time i hear his voice.Â
heâs impossibly tall, perhaps the tallest among them all. half his face is covered in a beard and his hair is tied up in a neat bun. and even when iâm offended at being called their âpropertyâ, i canât help but feel a flutter in my stomach.Â
he saved me from getting hurt.Â
âo-of course,â my mother stutters. âi was justââ
âyou were justâŚ?â
he scoffs when she cannot answer and turns to look at me.Â
for the first time iâm truly aware of just how big he is, just how he towers over me. the difference in our size leaves me speechless, and i tuck my hair behind my ears and flutter my lashes up at him.Â
he smiles. âyou have thirty minutes. go pack.â
â
back in my room a sense of sadness hits me for the first time.Â
thereâs nothing in this house that iâm going to particular miss, apart from my stack of secondhand paperbacks that isâŚ
i thumb through the pages one last time and say goodbye knowing my mother wonât hesitate to use them as kindling the moment iâm gone. not like sheâs ever read a book in her life⌠all she knows how to do is drink, party, cake her face with make up and obsess over men.Â
i stuff my clothes into a tattered old duffel bag. thereâs no make up i need to pack, just my favourite books and vinyl, if they even let me use them wherever theyâre taking me.Â
almost on dot, once my thirty minutes are up, the curly haired man from before enters my room. his lip curls in barely concealed disgust as he looks around my roomâat the peeling wallpaper and the jane austen bedsheets on my bed, at the random niche band posters that i donât expect him to know about (oasis, blur, arctic monkeys etc) but heâs gentle when he takes a hold of my hand.Â
âletâs go, autumn raine.â he says and i refuse to give him the satisfaction of seeing me cry. instead, i square my shoulders and blink my tears away.Â
and then i close the door to my bedroom for the last time.Â
autumn raine â if you even care

Uh oh, I might be getting too excited for this event. đ
đşRainy Day with Jade~?
I am so sorry for the late response (it's been a year???) life has been bludgeoning me with a hammer
(Pls reblog and leave a comment â¤)
đşRainy Day đş
Rain.
Oh how Jade loved rain.
Little droplets of home descending from the heavens, thudding against the window in soft rhythmic pitter patters.
Jade loved to step outside and close his eyes, relishing the feeling of rain on his face. He always felt so peaceful.
It turned the little world of his garden into a glistening wonderland. A silent beauty he always took the time to adore and photograph.
But what Jade loved more than anything else was that it brought quiet relaxing afternoons spent with you.
The two of you curl up on the couch with your legs intertwined, tea in hand, and either quietly read or watch a movie.
That's how you were now. Snuggled up together and buried under a thick blanket, watching a movie.
The rain thumped steadily against the window. The cold remained trapped outside.
"I'm always amazed by Vil." You whispered suddenly, eyes fixed on the screen. "His acting is incredible."
Jade hummed in agreement, resting his chin on your head.
"Indeed." He murmured. "Murder mysteries work well for him."
To be honest he wasn't paying much attention to the movie anymore. Bundled up here with you, he was feeling rather sleepy.
You were warm and soft in his arms, a cuddly pillow just for him. Your voice flowed into his ears like sweet honey, gradually becoming more muffled and distant as his eyes just got heavier...
"Jade? Jade?"
You turned your head to see Jade had fallen asleep, slumped against your side.
"Oh." You smiled fondly and shifted to lie with him more comfortably and kissed his cheek.
"Sleep well, Jade."

Rain Code x Fire Emblem
in which our amnesiac protagonist wakes up and is thrust into an all out war
i also commissioned @loremaster to draw this amazing yuma for the au!
Spoilers under the cut:
i'd like to imagine the final boss is the First Dragon's (Number One for short) Clone
additional lore:
makoto and the hommunculi were made by a dark cult called Amaterasu. they wanted to create an undead army through necromancy to take over the world or whatever. this is kind of the primary conflict of the game
shinigami is a death dragon. number one makes a pact with her because he aims to kill the immortal dragon clone of himself, and only something that specializes in death can do that
the book of death is a legendary dark tome that's relatively weak at first but its powers awaken late game
zombified hommunculi would be kind of the "mindless mob" enemy you see in the training levels. they'd be generic until late game where you get rematches with old bosses (as well as specific recruited characters should you have let them die)
i didnt draw them but the aetheria trio are like. definitely a pegasus knight trio that can do triangle attack
also yomi is a holy knight because of the irony (and his self righteousness). he's the main recurring "i must retreat!" antagonist for a while lol
yakou is your jaegen of the game that's powerful at first but falls off later. and then he dies for plot đ also his horse is named Ama, cause she's his pal <3
yes i designed number one's dragon from the flight rising coatl. it just kinda screams yuma to me
tbh i wrote like the entire plot on discord a while back but i aint writing allat again sorry. just know this au is rotating in my brain like crazy. i love you fire emblem

Hiii I only read few of your posts about chrollo because I am stressed due to my exams đ but as soon as they are over I am going to read all of them because the ones i read are amazing!
But could I request a really sweet and gentle chrollo? 𼺠because there are so many yandere chrollo (which i also enjoy reading) on tumblr and so few of fluff chrollo like maybe chrollo who helps his s/o to relax and tell her that everything is fine? đŤ
And I also apologize for my bad English since its not my first language đ
No worries love, I feel you with exam season...
You close the door behind you with a huff and groan, leaving behind a wet trail of water. Finally this shitty day will be over!
You'd went to a Cafe to get some studying in. Usually this works great for you and the buzzing environment helps you focus, but today was just not it. Apparently three families had decided that today would be the perfect day to have a family lunch and neither the kids nor the parents felt the need to be discreet about the incredible intricacies of their abismally boring private lives.
Coincidentally, on the way back, a sudden rainstorm had decided to make your day even worse, with making you soaked and you having to sprint home.
Now you just feel bad for not having done nearly as much as you'd originally planned for the day and you're cold and wet on top of it.
Sighing in self pity, you drop your keys into the little bowl at the door, relishing in the familiar quiet of your flat.
There is some light shining from the study so you make your way to the door. Peeking into the room your mouth forms a smile.
Chrollo is sitting in your beloved armchair, reading one of his books.
"Hello dear, welcome home," He says and reads one more sentence before tearing his eyes away from the page to look up at you with his steel gray eyes.
Before he can say anything else, you crawl on his lap and slump into his arms, burying your face in his chest with yet another dramatic groan of frustration.
He lets out a chuckle as you rub your wet face on his shirt.
"Hard day studying?" He asks, stroking your cold cheek with his thumb. You nod and wrap your arms around him in a tight hug. He pulls you closer as well and boops your hairline with his nose.
Slowly, the cold from you body begins to dissipate, wrapped in his embrace.
"I feel like I haven't done nearly enough for the exams that are coming up soon. It was just soo much and the cafe was soo loud today... " You sniff. "I couldn't concentrate at all!"
Chrollo listens to your complaining, while stroking your hair calmly. You look up at him and he smiles, quickly kissing your lips.
"I'm sure you did as well as you could, given the situation at hand. You've been studying so much the last few days too so don't worry. You'll be fine!"
He's so pretty in the low light of the study. Rain and the evening darkening the sky outside. Now that you're inside, it's quite the nice sound, to hear the pitter patter on the windows and the storm outside blowing through the street.
Listening to his sympathetic voice you smush your face back into his chest. He smells nice, you notice...
"I also got drenched on the way back," you murmur quietly and he laughs at that.
"Yes, I can feel that, dear. You're quite literally sitting on top of me." The hand on your waist squeezes your side as if to bring home the point that you're getting him all wet.
"Sorry." You bump your head against his peck with a smile, not sorry at all. But he only chuckles and pats your head in a gentle motion.
"It's fine. I was going to wash the shirt tomorrow anyways. Might as well add the pants and your clothes to that."
Your smile widens. Surely, your boyfriend is the best of all the boyfriends in the world.
Chrollo softly lifts up your chin to look at you. You blink at him and he presses a kiss to your ice-cold nose.
"We should quickly hop in the shower together, you know? For warming-up purposes only, of course." You snort and kiss him properly on the lips.
"Of course."

,,FLOWERââ
Joel miller x reader
summary; Your and Joels encounters havenât been the best, he ignores you and you respect his decision to keep away from you. Ultimately he saves you multiple times and a friendship starts to bloom between you, can it be more that that? Or is it all in your head?
warnings; angst?, violence, small mentions of death and slight fluff
a/n; Hey!! Thank you so much for the love for my last fic, I hope this is enjoyable and iâm sorry for the grammar mistakes,, i try and come to fix them if they come up :) And i hope its not weird that i first wrote platonic and then romantic joel haha,, i just have father issues đ
word count; 5k
It was raining again, you love the Jackson weather but it has rained almost a week now and youâre getting sick of it. You jogged to your home/shop, what Tommy gave you after they found you in the woods. You were a florist, you loved all plants and flowers. And you think itâs meaningful that even in this rotten world flowers bloom and fill the gray with color. You were almost at home, a little out of breath and soaked. But then you saw him, a man you hadnât seen before just standing in the rain.
You donât know if it would be a good idea to approach him but you know he saw you. You had stopped walking and you just stared at the exceptionally beautiful man. What were you doing? You decided to keep walking and then from the corner of your eye you saw him fall on his knees, panic surges through you now as you changed your direction from your home to him. You didnât even notice first how you were almost sprinting to him. Now you were kneeling in front of him âhey, are you-â you started and then you saw his eyes, you werenât the best at talking but you observed people and you knew when people were in pain, mental or physical and you knew he was in pain. âOkay hey iâm the florist in the town, my place is right thereâ you point at your building and continued âWhy donât you come with me yeah? Its cold and raining and i have some tea or if you prefer coffee i-â you said to him
âno.â he just said and you just looked at him and nodded, it was understandable that he said no. You had never talked before so you just accepted his answer and hid the wince after he denied your offer. You got up and started jogging to your building, if he wasnât coming you might try and save yourself from the cold you were probably going to get from the rain. You hoped he would at least get home but that wasnât your business. You finally get inside and turn your lights on. You really like your place, its cozy and always smells like flowers which makes you happy. Walking up the stairs to your âliving areaâ and you throw your things in the corner. Still soaked you take new clothes and decide to shower.
Now youâre just laying in bed while you feel yourself dozing off but suddenly hear a loud knock at your door, it scares you because living with the cordyceps has of course made you jumpy and cautious. You walk down the stairs and see Tommy, you open the front door âhey Tommy whatâs up?â you ask smiling politely âhey uh Iâm sorry to bother you but have you seen my brother um Joel?â he asks while he seems visibly stressed âuh how does your brother look? I saw a man standing in the rain a while back and he didnât let me take him inside so I just thought it would be best to leave him alone-â you explain about the unknown man you saw earlier âyeaâ thatâs probably him- look if you see him please tell him to come home, we are worried about him and we know heâs mad at us but its not smart to wander while its rainingâ Tommy says to you while looking around.
âDo you need help finding him? I can come with you if you want-â you start to offer to find Tommys brother you apparently met âno no- its cold and wet so you go to sleep and if he stumbles here just get him home yeah?â he waves to you and starts jogging off to the town. You stare at his figure go out of sight while you think about your options, either you go to bed and sleep, be warm and comfortable in your bed or you put a jacket on and try and find the missing man who has already once denied your offer. You sigh, close the door and walk up the stairs.
âWhere is it?â you say to yourself while trying to find a mans rain jacket you swore you had when you came into Jackson. âAha! Here it isâ you find the jacket and stuff it and the fresh bread you had made in the morning into your bag and swing it over your shoulder.
You pull your own jacket on and open your door âI better find you Joelâ you say to the quiet town and start walking around. You canât track his traces because the rain washed them off so you just start to wander around the town and try to think a place where you would go if you didnât want to be found. Then it hit you, the little abandoned shop close to the little park area. You start heading that way, you knew it would be a good spot to hide because you had hidden there for the first weeks you got to Jackson and there were some of your old stuff you hadnât had the time to get. Youâre now standing in front of the building. Building up the courage to go inside. He already had said no and you are worried that youâll seem too pushy. You take a breath and walk to the door and open it, step inside and it seems empty. But then you see his wet jacket hung over on one of the chairs, you hesitate to call out to him but you do it anyways âhey Joel um I know you didnât want my help but Tommy came by to ask about you and I just thought to bring you an extra rain jacket I had laying around- Oh! and i also brought some bread I baked this morning if you were hungry so.. Iâm leaving them here and getting out of your hairâ you called out to him hoping heâll hear. You take the jacket and the bread and set them on a table you had once called yours and stepped back out.
You closed the door and started to walk back to your place. You heard your name called and looked to your right to see tommy, you raised your hand to greet him and continued walking. âYou find him?â he shouts from the distance, you shake your head and say back âIâm sure heâs fine and fully capable to take care of himself Tom, go back to Maria sheâs probably waiting for you.â And you smile at him and continue walking in the rain.
â
You wake up to knocking at your door and you sigh. Slowly getting up from your warm bed and walking down the stairs just to see the man who you had taken your only rain jacket. You shiver and think to yourself that you got yourself sick. Opening the door he looks a bit awkward âhey, thanks for the jacket.â is the only thing he says to you while heâs handing you the rain jacket. âOf courseâ you say back to him while taking the jacket back from him. He nods and just turns around and starts walking away from you, leaving you standing there with your jacket. You chuckle at how awkward that was while closing the door, you place the jacket on a bench and climb the stairs back to your bedroom.
ââââââ
You hear your name being called excitedly and you turn around to see Ellie âhey girl, how is it goingâ you say laughing to her while sheâs crushing you in a hug. Youâve been sick the past two weeks because of the rain and your night wander so every time you got a bit better you hung out with the girl hugging you and your cold got worse every time and now youâve been in bed the last five days to get better so you can get ready go back to patrols. âI missed you flowerâ she says to you while you raise your eyebrows at the nickname âflower?â you ask. She looks like she told you a secret accidentally and tries to change the subject. You listen her ramble about the town and the people, you laugh at her gossip while you are walking through the town. âEllie!â you hear a manâs voice call her and look to the direction of the voice. You see Joel and quickly look back at the girl âwhat?â she asks and you just continue to ignore his presence.
After the jacket incident you tried to befriend Joel but quickly gave up after he ignored you. You felt humiliated by him and didnât want to interact with him any more than needed. You spaced out when Ellie and Joel were talking about dinner plans, until you heard Ellie say your name âsorry what?â you asked and she chuckled âI asked if you had dinner plans tonightâ you smiled at her and said âI donât think so, why?â She sighs, probably because you werenât listening at all âMe, Tommy, Maria and Joel are having dinner together tonight and I wondered if you wanted to come?â She explained to you. Your eyes widened and looked at Joel who was just standing there looking the two of you and you looked back at Ellie âno, no I donât want to intrude on a family dinnerâ you started, âyou wouldnâtâ you hear Tommyâs voice and you look over your shoulder to see him stride towards you and Ellie âI want you there, Maria wants you there. Come if you donât have any plansâ he said putting a hand on top of your shoulder.
You sigh âOkay iâll think about itâ you say defeated while Ellie just grins. âYay! Okay I have to go now but iâll see you later!â Ellie says happily and strides away from you, you smile as you watch her interact with the other kids. Tommy says your name and you look at him âso youâre ready start going to patrolâs again?â he asks, you nod âyeah Iâm all healthy nowâ you confirm and you start walking with him to the townâs diner.
â
Its 7 and you know its the time dinner starts. You feel anxious because you feel like youâre intruding their family dinner. You hear a knock on your door and flinch, its now or never. You walk to the door, open it and see Tommy âHey Tommy, I was just about to leave. Whats up?â you say to him. He smiles and looks behind him âI was sent to come and get youâ he says to you while offering his hand, you laugh and take his hand âalright then, lets goâ you say while youâre stepping out from your home and closing the door. Its not a long walk to Tommys house and the walk is nice, just talking about normal stuff is nice because after the outbreak there was no time for talking about ânormalâ things. âAlright weâre hereâ Tommy says to you and you stop âTommy um before we go inside are you sure that its fine for me to come? I donât want to be a bother and its fine really I just can go back home I-â you ramble but Tommy stops you âCome on, youâre always welcome you know thatâ is the only thing he says before walking in to the miller home.
You take a deep breath and walk in behind him âweâre here!â tommy yells from the hall and you see Ellie emerge âFlower!â she yells the nickname again âhey el!â you say back while sheâs coming to hug you âhow are you hun?â you ask and she smiles âGood now that youâre here, maybe you can bring some energy around hereâ she says while raising her eyebrows. You laugh and follow her to the kitchen âhey Maria, need help?â you ask her when you see her cooking, she turns her head to your direction âno thank you, go chat to the living room, go on nowâ she says brushing you off.
âAlright then, yell if you need help.â You say and turn around to walk to the living room where you see Joel and Tommy talking. âHey come sitâ Tommy says to you two and you smile at him and sit down on the other couch with Ellie. You talk with her while waiting for the food.
ââ
âNo Maria- I meantâ Tommy says before he bursts out laughing, youâre sitting in the dinner table now and youâre all finished with eating. âWhatever Tommyâ Maria answers with a smile back at her husband. âYeah TOMMY how dare youâ you say jokingly and Tommy just laughs more, Joel has been quiet almost the whole dinner and Ellie is now leaning on your shoulder. You laugh and decide that it would be the best for you to leave. You stand up and take your plate to the kitchen to wash it, you donât hear him coming and flinch when you feel Joel stepping beside you âjesus you scared meâ you say putting one hand on your heart. âSorry. when are you leaving?â He asks and your eyes widen, he wants go gone that bad? âOh Iâm going to leave after this, I donât want to be in your hair for too longâ you try and say politely but your hands start shaking. You put down your clean plate and start walking away from him and enter back to the dinner table âhey iâm going to leave now so, have a good night yeah?â you say a little hurt by what Joel said. âWhaat? Noo! Donât leave yetâ Ellie says whining a little, you chuckle âSorry hun, see you later yeah? Thanks for having me Maria.â You say to Maria and start walking to the door âwait! Joel will come with you, to walk you to your door. Right Joel?â Tommy says and you panic âOh no itâs fine, iâll be okayâ you say denying the offer âI know you would but hes still coming.â Tommy says while hes looking at Joel eyebrows raised. âYeah fineâ Joel says and startâs walking towards you.
Youâre walking in silence. Not the soothing kind of silence, the awkward silence what is eating you alive but you donât want to say anything. âYou shouldnât have comeâ is the first thing you hear Joel say to you and you stop. âWhat?â you ask eyebrows furrowed because of the confusion, âYou shouldâve just stayed home, Ellie is going to get attached to you and I donât want thatâ He says to you coldly âFirst of all, I was invited by my friends. I asked multiple times if it was okay for me to come and I was told yesâ you say to him now kind of mad, you loved the girl and he doesnât want you to have a relationship with her? âHavenât you gotten the hint that I donât want anything to do with you woman?â he raises his voice at you, you laugh âI didnât even talk to you ONCE, what is your problem?â you ask pointing your finger at him. He looks away for a second and then back at you and he sighs âlook, I know your type. You throw yourself at every man who gives you any attention and I donât want Ellie be like that and iâm not a charity case you can just hop in and save, you arenât special and I never needed your help.â He says and you freeze. Shock and anger flows through you âare you calling me a whore right now?â you ask him bitterly and then you see it. He thinks you throw yourself on men and you laugh, âYou have some fucking nerve saying that to my fucking face Miller. I donât fucking know where you got the impression that Iâm a whore but youâre fucking wrong. You think I was throwing myself on you? Hah. I was just being friendly you fucking piece of shit. And Iâm sorry I tried to fucking be friendly and help your sorry ass. You donât tell me who the fuck I can talk to or not, you donât even have to like me but Tommy and Maria has been my friends for a long fucking time so if you have a problem with me just hanging out? You can fucking goâ You spat at him furiously and start walking away from him. You donât see it but Joel realizes what he just did and hangs his head low, he thinks youâre beautiful, ethereal even and he thinks he has no chance after heâs seen you chat away with almost everyone in town. You might be oblivious to it but he knows everyone youâre being friendly to wants you.
Youâre furious, a man you havenât talked almost at all thinks that about you? You wouldnât admit it but it hurt, you did fancy him. He was a beautiful man and you did wish you at least couldâve been friends or something like that. Suddenly you hear your name being called and you see william a man you had became familiar after he had bought flowers from you on multiple occasions. âHey Wil whats up?â you ask and walk towards him, âI need someone to go patrol this small area and I canât go, I know youâre good so if you want I have a horse readyâ he tells you and you think about it. You could clear your head and you like patrols when youâre pissed off so yeah you would like to shoot some infected right now. âYeah iâll go, whats the route?â you ask while walking with him to the stables. âIts Eugenes route, the library building and back, you know it?â he tells you and hands you the gun. âOh yeah I do, I like that route.â you say and go and pet the horse âhey Japan, how are you feeling boyâ you coo at the horse. William clears his throat âSo, you go the route to the library and clear everything you can if theres any infected. If itâs something you canât handle you come back ok? I donât want any losses today.â He says the same thing you hear every time you go out. âAlright William.â you answer and get on the horse âsee you laterâ you call out and start leaving.
ââ
You donât know how you let this happen. You were doing well and managed to clear out almost all of the infected. But one managed to stay hidden until it was too fucking late, it jumped on you and now youâre wrestling it on top of you. âFuck!â you yell and it just snarlâs at you, you donât want to go like this. But it seems like youâre losing and itâs strength isnât faltering down at all. You guess this is it, youâre going to die here. You take a deep breath using your last strength to keep the infected far away from you so it canât bite. âFuck thisâ you say to yourself and prepare for the bite. Suddenly you hear a shot and the body goes limp on top of you, you push it away and sit up breathing heavily. You look at the person who just saved you and freeze, âJoel? What the fuck are you doing here?â you ask sternly still kind of mad about the argument but more hurt by it than anything. âI could ask you the same fucking questionâ he snaps back and you roll your eyes âI was asked to go on a patrol and I said yesâ you answer him and start getting up from the cold floor. âAlone? Do you know how fucking stupid that is? You couldâve died!â heâs now talking pretty loud and you quickly look around for more infected. âYou probably wouldâve been so happy about that Joel, came to tell me that? Or is it that you didnât get your cup filled enough from calling me a whore so you came back for more?â you say riled up again.
He sighs and hangs his head low âlook flower Iâm sorry about that I shouldâve not said that, are you hurt?â he says now more softly and it shocks you but you donât let it show. âNo Iâm not.â you answer and look away from his eyes âgood, do you still have any of your route left?â he asks you âno, this was the last spotâ you look back at him and he seems panicked? No idea why and you just brush it off. âOkay then letâs get back to Jackson yeah?â he says and starts walking off to the horses and you follow.
Youâve been riding in silence and itâs not bothering you too much, itâs close to being a nice silence if you still werenât hurt by his words. âLook flowerâ he starts and then it hits you, Ellie has called you that a few times now and it always seemed like an accident. Does Joel call you flower when he talks about you? He talks about you? Surely not right? You shake the feeling off, hum as an answer and listen what he has to say. âIâm really sorry for what I said, Iâm an idiot. Iâm not good with emotions and Iâm really sorry flower.â he says and just continues to look forward. You think about it âlook Miller, these are just empty words to me. If you want my forgiveness, earn it.â you answer.
â
You really didnât think Joel would even try to mend things between you but boy you were wrong. Every fucking day he would come by and drop something off, help you repair you shop if you needed it and apologized at the end of the day. You didnât admit it but you really liked his company, he was a listener and when you would ramble about stupid things he would listen, comment on something to let you know he was still listening and if there was someone else too he wouldnât let them interrupt you at all. He was growing on you and you knew it. He spent so much time with you people started to ask if you two were together, you always said no but from what you heard he never gave a clear answer. This morning was no different, âflowerâ you heard Joel say as he entered to your shop and you turned your head to see him walking to you âHey Joel whatâs upâ you ask smiling gently at him. âHereâ he said and gave you the coffee he brought every morning to you, âthank you, my saviorâ you said sipping the warm coffee. He chuckles and starts to look around âiâve been thinkinâ if you wanted me to paint these walls, i feel like they could use a refreshâ he said to you while browsing around your shop. âWhat about your back Joel? I know its bad and I donât want you to strain it moreâ you say while heâs touching the peeling paint. âIâm fine and I want to do it, not because I feel obligated to because if I didnât want to I wouldnât even offer and you know thatâ He talks softly, a tone heâs been only using when talking to you and almost reading your mind. You laugh and say back âI know Joel but if youâre going to do this I want to help your old assâ he looks at you offensively after you called him old and raise his eyebrow and you laugh, really laugh.
âfuckâ you hear a loud crash and Joels yell from the other room, you start to jog towards the room âJoel? Are you okay?â you ask and step in to the room. The first thing you see is Joel, sitting on the floor leaning into a wall. âJoel?â you ask and walk towards the man âIâm fine, just fell on my ass.â he grumbles and starts standing up but he flinched in pain and goes back down âOkay, lets get you up huh? And lets go sit on the couch.â You say and move over to him and help him up, he groans and walks slowly, slightly leaning on you. You slowly place him on to the couch âyou want some coffee?â you ask and he nods, you go pour a cup for him âI was thinking about going to the bar today for a while, you wanna come with?â He asks you while you hand him his coffee. You think about it âsure Iâll come, is anyone else come I should know about?â you answer his question âTommy is gonna be thereâ he says and takes a sip of his coffee while you start clean up the counter. âAlright thenâ you answer and start walking towards the stairs.
You walk in to the bar and try and spot the Miller brothers. âFlowerâ you hear a yell and see Joel and Tommy sitting down in one of the booths. You walk over âHey Tom, how are you? And how is Maria? I havenât seen her in a while?â you ask while you sit down next to Joel. âShes good, pregnancy is just hittinâ her hard. And iâm doing good thanks, what about you? Iâve heard that you were thinking of painting the walls of you shop?â Tommy says to you. âYeah Iâm thinking about it but its a lot of work and Iâm very indecisive about colors so Iâm not sure what I would paint it as.â you explain and lean on the table in front of you. âYou know I wanted to do it first flowerâ Joel adds and looks at you, you roll your eyes âI know that but I donât want to make your back worse by painting for hoursâ you say and furrow your eyebrows at him. He laughs and says âyou can massage it afterâ and winks at you playfully, you laugh âof courseâ you respond smiling and sigh. Tommy and Joel start a conversation and you just listen to it and space out.
âIâm going to get a drink, iâll be backâ you say to them and get up from the booth. You walk over to the counter âHey zavi, one glass of wine pleaseâ you say to the man behind the counter, he nods and walks off to get your drink. âHey girl, what do you say if we just get out of hereâ You suddenly hear a man next to you and you turn to see Liam, who you have talked a few times but you donât really know him. âNo thanks Iâm here with friendsâ you answer and look away from him hoping heâll get the hint. He doesnât and continues to push âjust ditch them, I want youâ he says and steps closer.
You immediately feel uncomfortable âno, Iâm sorry Liam but I donât see you like thatâ you answer and step away from him. âWhat? You fucking bitch! Youâve just been leading me on! Fucking whoreâ he starts to yell angrily. âWhat? I never-â you say and you see his palm rise to hit you. You flinch, close your eyes and prepare for the hit but it never comes. You peer your eyes open and see Joel standing in front of you holding Liams arm tightly âBack the fuck off.â he says coldly, âman this isnât your business walk awayâ Liam says to Joel trying to get him out of your way. Suddenly Joel loses it and punches Liam âyou fucking touch her ever again I swear to the lordâ I will fuck you up. You fucking hear me?â Joel yells at the man who is now on the floor, âokay okay man iâm sorryâ is the only thing he says before heâs scrambling away from you. Joel turns to you âflower? are you okay?â he asks softly placing his palms on your face. Your eyes soften and you nod âyes, thank you Joel.â you say and smile gently at him. But then it hits you and your eyes widen âI- I need to go iâm sorryâ you say and take fast steps away from Joel and get out of the bar. You continue walking outside and find a bench to sit on, you sigh and place your head into your hands.
âFlower? Whatâs going on?â you hear Joels soft voice from in front of you. You stand up and walk towards him slowly, âI need to ask you something.â You say to him and he nods âof course, what is it?â he asks. âWhen you said I was throwing myself to everyone did you mean this? Did you mean that because I try to be friendly people think Iâm interested in them?â you ask your voice slightly shaking. His eyes widen âSweet girl- Iâm really sorry I shouldnât have said that-â he starts and you shake your head âNo Joel Iâm not mad about it anymore I just need to know if-â You start but donât continue after he puts his hands on your shoulders. âListen to me flower, its not your fault that people mistake your kindness for somethinâ else because you know what? The kindness you have even though the world is all ugly and messed up is rare and itâs beautiful. You take pride on that âkay? You are kind to everyone and its one if your best traits. You hear me?â he talks sternly but not roughly. You smile, all the feelings youâve been hiding slowly come up.
âThank you Joelâ you say and he looks at you like youâre the only person on this planet, âand the reason why I said what I did was because I think youâre absolutely beautiful and I was envious of the people who got your kindness and tried to push you away. I am really sorry about it I shouldâve handled my feelings betterâ he tells you. Your eyes widen, he was.. Jealous? He puts a strand of hair behind your ear and leans his forehead on yours âIâm sorry sweet girlâ you smile and put your hand on top of his on your shoulder âIts fine Joelâ you respond. His eyes soften and you hesitate but say it anyway âis it okay if I kiss you?â you ask and he looks shocked for a second and then grins and nods âyesâ he answers.
and you kiss him.

ooh-hoo for wip guessing game: 'star' for H50 and 'beach' for S&H. mixing it up. also 'wolf' for Due South bc I wanna elicit any Dief that might be in there
star (h50)
there's soooo much starting, staring and startling, one "touch-starved" and one (my favorite) "mustard", but turns out the best i can do for star as a word in itself is this:
But he also doesnât have any money on him and his car is out of gas miles from here and the area is so remote Google Maps doesnât even work and he hasnât seen a living soul since it got dark and the clouds obscuring the starry night sky say itâs going to rain any minute now.
which is from a fic (or a snippet, because it's pretty aimless) about nahele getting stranded and calling steve because he has no other options left, and steve driving out there to pick him up like a wet cat, and nahele figuring that he's just used up his one (1) favor he can ask of any adult before they get sick of him, while steve is mostly concerned with telling nahele to brace himself because danny is at home and he's definitely making soup right now.
(but also. secret bonus:
Thereâs a thump that catches Steve by surprise enough that his ceiling watching is immediately broken off, but itâs just Danny hitting the bedspread with a flat hand like a very good point was just raised. âExactly! Like Starsky and Hutch. Tango and Cash. Mulder and Scully.â)
-
beach (s&h)
not a single solitary beach for starsky & hutch. đ sorry guys, you deserve a nice beach vacation (or some additional dramatic synchronized badge-throwing, at least).
-
wolf (due south)
a very exciting pick! but now i'll tell you a truly terrible thing (worse than no beach vacations) and it's that there are ZERO (0) mentions of "wolf" in my due south document, and there is precisely ONE (1) dief/diefenbaker, and even then he's not actually present:
Ray looks at Fraser. Fraser looks back. Ray blinks and Fraser tilts his head a little, in a way he very well might have picked up from Dief.
it's deeply shameful, but it's also worth noting that the entire document has only just over 7k words, and that's including the two ds fics i've finished in my lifetime. this is a fandom where the canon just has such a specific vibe that i'm always worried i'm not hitting it right (because i don't even really think i did that in either of those two fics i did finish), which is made worse by how much i Like canon. canon is good and my friend and it's very easy to just rewatch it over and over instead of needing to write fic to spend more time in that world.

Oh, allright! Then um... Could i request some romantic headcanons for Edgar with a reader from the 21st century? (Gen Z possibly, cuz i love the chaotic energy)
The reader is staying at Ciel's place for obvious reasons but ya
Hsjsbsksb i'm sorry it's unoriginal i knowđ
shhhh, there's no such thing as unoriginal, I love this! <3
⌠What in the world are they wearing?? Theyâre so fashionable, but⌠well, also⌠thatâs quite a bit of their skin which is exposed! Probably. Ah. Even if theyâre dressed modestly, heâs not sure exactly what it is they have on. A hoodie will have him expressing confusion over strings which arenât tied (like one expects them to be on a corset), and something as plain as a T-shirt will have him wondering where the rest of the garment is. Of course⌠he doesnât mind any of it! Their clothing looks good on him. Itâs simply a shock to see someone dressed so differently than heâs used to.
One of his first questions is to ask if they have any literature from the future. Surely they must have brought some books with them, right? What else do people do for entertainment?? Pfffffff. Heâs especially interested in the poetry of years to come, imagining it to be incredibly romantic. Whatever they give him, it doesnât take a genius to know heâll devour it and come back asking for more once heâs finished it. Hopefully theyâve got a few good books or a great memory about the ones they like!
He finds it hilarious that (Name) is proving themself a nuisance to the Phantomhive estate. Whatever shenanigans theyâre pulling, itâs a guarantee that word of it will get back to him⌠sometimes from the lips of this person themself. Thatâs the best of it; when he gets to hear straight from them what they did and how much trouble they were and all the details. He canât help it, heâs a gossip! As long as their hijinks werenât too harmful, itâs all in good fun, isnât it? (Of course, Ciel and his endless irritation would like a word with that notion.)
Steals their phone if only because they have various downloaded videos and ASMR tracks on it. The videos probably make him laugh, and the ASMR⌠need any more be said? Heâs tired! Who would have thought that some noises would just be so comforting as to put him right to sleep? Not that he needs help sleeping. Itâs just become relaxing to him. Particularly if heâs allowed to fall asleep next to them in bed, with the sounds of, say, a heavy rain playing from their phone.
He personally apologizes if they stir up any mischief with regard to his friends, but⌠the expression on his face makes it pretty clear heâs only apologizing so that his darling time travelerâs actions donât cause too much drama. If he found it funny, he has to bite his lip to avoid breaking out into a smile whilst saying heâs sorry. Later in private, itâs very likely heâll praise (Name) for their creativity and fun-loving spirit.
