Can I please get some hcs of Finn, Fern, Bonnibel and Marceline (separately) with a gender!neutral human reader who gets found in some kind of stasis pod in an overgrown underground bunker from the mushroom wars, and when they wake the reader up it turns out the reader was put in stasis near the end of the mushroom wars and now has to adjust to a radically different world? And after a few months of helping them get used to things the reader asks if they want to go on a date sometime?

Intro.

It was like sleeping any other night if it wasn't for the weird dreams. They were continuous, vivid and bizarre enough to the point you forgot about the real world where you can't fly nor talk to animals, eventually the memory of raid alarms and gunfire stoped bothering you as much as they used to as you enjoyed living one dream after another like a movie marathon.

But eventually all dreams, just like movies, come to an end.

When you wake up its like you're being splashed with a bucket of cold water, you're clutching your heart while gasping for air as bright lights burn the cornea of your eyes like pepper spray.

"Are they still alive?" one voice asks.

"Just barely, we'll need to transport them to the hospital."

Is what you manage to understand before you black out for moment, this time there were no dreams keeping you company. When you woke up you finally understood the situation you were in, with your memory slowly coming back to you in short bursts. The room you're in is plain white with weird machinery connected to you through thing tubes and suction cups, beside you is a young man with bright blue clothing. "Hey, you're up." he greets you after noticing you open your eyes.

"Looks like it, yeah... does this mean the war is finally over?" you ask which gained a confused expression from the young man.

"...War?"

Bubblegum

❥Princess Bubblegum is in charge of your well being the next few days, she'd walk in and run some tests and ask you simple questions but she'd only gain "Yes" or "No" responses from you.

❥She was the first to assigned you some professional help, talking with someone to let out all your confused and emotional turmoil.

❥"Your health has been improving." PB brings up during one of your medical check ups.

"So has my mood, it's not easy moving on but I know my family would want that for me." you motivate yourself, earning an awknowlodge nod from the princess.

❥Once you're out of bed you finally have a chance to properly marvel at the Candy Kingdom, from its candy residents to its sweet smelling architecture."You built all this? And everything is made of candy?"

"Sure is, you can take a bite of anything is you like."

"Even you?" you joke.

"Ha, ha very funny." PB huffs sarcastically.

❥Bubblegum is a busy woman but you still tail coat behind her like a baby duckling, either helping her as an assistant for her science projects or joining her for royal tea ceremonies.

❥After a year has passed and you felt comfortable in your new home did you feel confident enough to ask PB an important question. "You're gonna over work yourself again Peebs, how about I invite you to dinner at a restaurant?"

"Just bring it up to my lab, having company would be nice."

"Yes boss!"

Finn

❥Turns out the young man has been keeping watch over you for almost two days, refusing to leave your side until you woke up. Maybe it's because you're the only other human (besides Susan) in Ooo who he can relate to, or he's just that nice of a guy.

❥Once you woke up he was ecstatic to learn more about the world you lived in, what kind of monsters could you slay? What games or comics were available at the time? But Finn soon realized you weren't up to reminisce about old times. "My family... They didn't make it did they...?" you'd start weeping.

❥He gave you space to sort out your feelings due to Pb's request. Whenever Finn was relaxing at his own home he often found himself thinking about you, trying to get in your shoes and understand how he would feel if he suddenly woke up and Jake wasn't with him.

❥The next time he came to visit you he brought a get well basket with a bunch of snacks and his favorite comics, however some of them were half eaten because him and Jake got hungry on the way there, his heart was in the right place but his stomach wasn't. "Hey, I'm glad you made it here though. I appreciate it." you'd tell them.

❥"How's the recovery going?" he'd ask, curious to know since there's less equipment checking your vitals compared to the previous times. "It's going steady, Princess Bonnibel says I'll be out in no time."

Finn gets close to you, making sure there wasn't a wad of gum nearby. "Between you and me, she's a great medic but she's also very serious about it. She had me swallowing horse sized pills without a second thought pfft."

"Yeah, she be like that."

❥"Do you know what you'll do when you get out?"

"I have no clue, although PB suggested I'd get used to the outdoors."

"Then I have the perfect spot."

Then Finn would proceed to take you to visit weird kingdoms, some made of fruits and others made of breakfast, it's amazing experiencing such things with Finn by your side.

❥He'd always talks about the adventures he goes on like something out of a legend, it's tempting to go on one with him but he says. "I'll have to teach ya how to use a sword."

"Well sign me the fluff up."

Marceline.

❥Seeing Marceline for the first time is kind of scary when you first woke up. Mainly it was due to so many vampire monster movies.

❥She'd ominously float near you one day, when you were still down in the dumps after learning the truth. "I was there." she says all of a sudden, dry and blunt.

"What?"

"I said I was there, when everything went down. You managed to sleep it off in one of them bunkers, you didn't have to see your loved ones leave one by one. Consider yourself lucky."

The reason you were scared of her the first few days was because of the way she looked at you, with those dark red demon eyes.

❥Marceline would keep the whole "paralysis demon" kind of approach the next week. You'd wake up in the middle of the night to see a flash of her nocturnal eyes before she vanishes. You're unsure if she's haunting you or not, when asking PB about it she says "Marcy probably wants to talk to you but isn't willing to open up yet. Just give her some time." she'd shrug it casually. You would shrug it off too if it wasn't because it feels like you'll get a heart attack everytime you see Marceline's eyes.

❥It's like treating a cat. You wait for her to come to you. Eventually once you got out of the hospital and settled up in the candy kingdom, Marceline woke you up with the music from her guitar, she didn't give you that hard look and instead floated near you in a relaxed position.

❥Despite her personality and appearance she's surprisingly the most understanding of the three. As you soon came to find out she was a witness of the early days of the war, it was almost therapeutic talking to her about it.

"The smell of plane fumes was a pain in the buns, I remember I would spread lotion under my nose just to distract me from it." you'd bring up.

She would carry her bass with her and slowly playing a few beats. "I used to tied car refreshers to my forehead." she cackled.

❥The two of you bonded over music, she'd play a melody from back in the day and you'd tell her the details. "Ah I recognize that one, it was a good single."

"Really? I've had stuck in my head since I was a kid but I never knew the rest of the song!"

"Well, consider yourself lucky" you snarky repeat the same phrase she told you when you two met, receiving a pillow to the face.

Heartslabyul

The Crimson Tyrant and Rose Maze

Intro | Lion's Den | Witch's Lakehouse | Desert Manor | Poison Palace | Death’s Mansion | Dragon’s Castle

This chapter is pretty similar to how it opens in Twisted Wonderland only difference is Yuu wakes up in a jail cell awaiting beheadment literally. They sit there for a while to see if anyone was coming before testing the gate to find that it was unlocked allowing them to escape into the Rose Garden/Maze. Now this is where the mechanics and tutorial come into play.

The first character Yuu encounters isn’t Ace nor Deuce but Cater as he is the Caretaker of the roses, which means he is mainly in the garden, the maze, or the greenhouse tending and painting the roses, under the Queen’s orders. Cater, and to an extent, Trey would both have unique mechanics to their “stalker” chase and gameplay in general. Since Heartslabyul has a strict schedule that everyone must follow, Cater and Trey, won’t bother Yuu even if Yuu just stands in the same room as them during the work hours, unless Yuu decides to fuck around and find out, when they were doing their work. Going back to Cater and Yuu’s encounter with him. They quite literally run into him. He turns to them and smiles, not fully realizing who they are until he takes a closer look at them. He then tries to deceive them, which doesn’t work and initiates a chase.Cater chases Yuu until the clock chimes to tell him it’s time to work.

Yuu meets Ace and Deuce after being chased. Deuce wanted to sound the alarm to warn Riddle and the other higher ups that they found Yuu, but Ace stopped him and helped Yuu get around and even hide from Trey and Cater. Both act as a safe room, like the ones from Resident Evil or Silent Hill, but good things never last, but we’ll get to that later.

You might be wondering, “Where does Grim play into all this?” Well my friend, Grim is the helpful animal companion that Yuu gets. He collects Items and helps defend Yuu from being chased, basically the dog from Haunting Grounds. So he has similar mechanics. Treat Grim well (Feed, praise, pet, etc) and he’ll do everything without too much of a fuss, but Mistreat him (Kick, scold, don’t feed, etc) and he’ll flat out ignore your commands, and even be the cause of Yuu’s pain.

Speaking of Trey, I mention in the first post that he’s the Ruler’s Caretaker, specifically. He tends to Riddle and actually wouldn’t be seen alot in this chapter, until his part of the story, but that’s not to say you can’t find him in early parts of the story. If he isn’t tending to Riddle, he’s in the kitchen baking.

Now Riddle is one of three special cases of Final Bosses. Yuu literally doesn’t even get to see him until his boss battle, which is similar to his Overblot, which Ace causes once again. Riddle is only really mentioned by every other character that Yuu encounters, which makes him sound like an actual demon, but when they finally meet him, they don’t understand what the others spoke about.

Dandelion AU | General Route

a/n: this is the intro and general route into my Dandelion: Wishes Brought to You x Haikyuu AU! this first part acts as the intro for all following route in which there will be 5 of them. hope you enjoy!

word count: 1.2k

warnings: verbal abuse by parent, mental health issues, explicit language

summary: life seemed bleak until four random animals appeared in your apartment. just how they got there was a mystery but the bigger mystery is how the hell they turned into four men.

The blaring alarm woke you up for your classes. Day after day it was the same: wake up, go to university, go to work, sleep, and repeat. You barely remember to take care of yourself in this cycle but it’s what you were used to.

“Your paper was less than satisfactory. Try harder next time.” Your mental health has taken a dive since entering university. The paper crinkled under your fingers as you read the criticisms left on the pages. Projects and papers have overtaken your life leaving little time for yourself. The mental toll became almost unbearable.

You sighed as you walked back to your apartment. “You’re worthless. I don’t know why you spend so much time on worthless endeavors. A degree in social work? Grow up.”

The words of your mother never left you, even as you grew up and moved away from her those words left scars. They were heavy weights on you but you didn’t have time to let it weigh down on you.

You opened the door to your apartment after fiddling with your keys. You didn’t mind the emptiness but sometimes you wished someone was there to greet you home.

“Home sweet home…”

You set your backpack down on the couch and plopped down next to it, closing your eyes. “Good for nothing child. You were always so incompetent.” As soon as you close your eyes they open just as fast. You let out another deep sigh and ran a hand over your face trying to keep yourself from crying. “You don’t have time to cry. Get up and—“

Meow

What the hell was that? You looked around your living area not seeing anything. Maybe you were imagining things now.

Meow

Nope, definitely not imagining things. You made your way to your room and heard the noises again. Turning on the lights you see a small basket with two kittens and two bunnies, “This has to be a fever dream.” Why the hell were there random animals in here? How did they even get in? “Whatever, I’ll just take them to the shelter.” But as you looked outside the sun started to set. Tomorrow then. They can stay for the night.

You brought them all out to the living room and sat down with them on your lap and stared at them. “Just who are you all…” You scratched the blonde cat's head and it leaned into your hand as you did. “You’re kind of cute, aren’t you?” A small smile peaked on your face. It’s been a while since you’ve had a moment to yourself like this. 

As if all the other animals were fighting for your attention, they started to climb and paw at you. You chuckled a bit seeing how goofy they were being. “You lot sure do love attention. Don’t worry there are enough pets for all of you.” 

A few days go by and then weeks and you still haven’t taken the animals to the shelter. They were just so cute and honestly, maybe you needed an emotional support animal…or four for that matter. One might call you crazy but it really does seem like they listen when you talk. Always making eye contact and it even seemed like they nodded sometimes.

“—and then today my mother called…she said some hurtful things but she always does. I know I shouldn’t let it get to me but sometimes it just feels like an overwhelming pressure that won’t let up.”

The brown bunny in your lap was sleepy but trying to stay awake and listen. How you managed to deal with your family like that is beyond him.

Life with the animals was becoming normal. It was nice having something to come home to, even if they were all pets.

“When will we turn back? These forms are awful.”

“Shh, they might hear you! And it’s not so bad. Relaxing as a cat is nice.”

“This is so fucking stupid. Why did I agree to this?”

“Will you all just shut up? Trying to sleep here.”

After a long night, everyone woke up…but things were different. “Hey look, it seems we finally did turn back.” One of the former cats said as he sat up from where he was sleeping in the living room. 

“Guess the game is finally progressing.” They all started waking up and so did you. Walking out into the living room, you were expecting to find your pets…only to find four strange men, two with bunny ears and two with cat ears sitting on your couch. Needless to say, you screamed.

“Wh—who the hell are you people? Cosplayers? And what have you done with my pets!” Looking around, none of your beloved pets were in sight. They all kind of looked at each other before the one with glasses spoke. “We are your pets. As if the ears weren’t enough of an indicator…” How could your pets become human? Or almost human? They still all had their ears but…this had to be impossible. 

“Prove it.”

Famous last words as they all spilled out everything you had told them from the last couple of weeks. It almost became overwhelming but you rubbed your head. “Okay, okay. I believe you all. Can you tell me how this happened?” They all shook their heads no. The one with glasses spoke again, “It would be against the rules.” Rules? What were they talking about? 

“What can you tell me then?” One of the cats threw his hands behind his head, “Not much. But I’ll let you know my name’s Terushima Yuji,” he then scooted closer to you and took your hand and kissed it, “and it’s a pleasure to finally talk to you.”

The look in his eyes made you on guard immediately. It looked like he could swallow you whole. After that, they all went around and introduced themselves. 

Tsukishima Kei, one of the rabbits. He was kind of intimidating in the way it looked like he just hated you. Like he was judging your every move. But it also seemed like he had a wall around him that was there to protect himself.

Kyoutani Kentarou, the cat that wouldn’t let you approach him much. This one was intimidating in the way it seemed like he’d beat you up. One false move and he wouldn’t hesitate to use his fists. But the small things he did, even as a cat, always stood out to you. Like how he let you hold him when you were at your worst mentally.

Kunimi Akira, the sleepy bunny that tried his best to listen. Not standoffish but you kind of felt like you were always cutting into his naps so it made it a little hard to talk to him. He really did try to listen, but sometimes he wanted to do his own thing and not have to worry about anything else.

Lastly, Terushima Yuji…the most flirtatious out of the bunch. A cat that always let you pet and hold it but it seemed like he didn’t care about the affection one way or another. You could tell it was a facade but for what you didn’t know.

“Let’s try to get along, okay?” You nodded your head as your new life with these men began. You didn’t know how long they’d be here or the impact they would make but you wanted to take the risk.

————

“This is going to be interesting” The cunning man that oversaw the game looked down on the show that was unfolding before him. Attachments were to be made and hearts were to be broken. It was only a matter of time until his plans came to fruition.

[End Intro]

The Camera then shows the dark film lot and then enters the boys trailer, the camera focuses on DJ on top hugging a bear, Owen on the bottom with a sock on his mouth, then to Duncan on a Bunk all to himself holding the devil horns sign in his hand, then panning to Justin on the bottom Bunk with cucumbers on his eyes, on the top Bunk was Daniel with a leg hanging out of it, Harold picking his nose on the next bottom bunk the camera pans back to Justin and it lingers on him for a while "Hey! Keep it Moving" Chris's voice over. The it goes to the top Bunk above Harold where Cody was, and lastly the last bunk in the guys trailer showing Ezekiel now in the bottom bunk spread like an octopus and on the top bunk Eric hugging his pillow. Then it shows the girls bunk, Panning to Izzy growling and barking in her sleep, Gwen like sleeping like Dracula when Chris blows and Air horn waking them up. "All Crew on set!" Chris said from the mega phone "Call time is 4 A.M" Chris kissed the mega phone and smiled at the Camera "I love this thing."

"This is so.... wrong.... The only time I woke up this early was when Eric put an Alarm for this hour and that was because he chose the wrong 4" Bryan said crossing his arms.

"Alright, so Chris thinks it's all fun and games to wake us up at 4 in the morning, eh? Well, let me tell ya, that ain't cool, eh? I mean, seriously, who does that? It's downright evil, I tell ya. Like, if you're not out there milking cows or feeding chickens, what's the point, right?" Ezekiel said his hand going thru his hair and beanie.

"At first, I thought he was talking to the Crew, Crew, not us" Beth said as she sighed "I was really hoping they'd replace Chris the creep with a nicer host this time around. " She the covers her mouth "Is that mean? Sorry!"

The crew exit from their trailers, the majority in a foul mood except Izzy who was giddy and Ezekiel who has woken up this early before and used to this "I can't believe I'm doing another season of this show" Leshawna said her voice tired. "this continuing sadistic wake-up call, is messing with the natural rhythms of my body clock. My mojo will be destroid." Harold said in a similar tired voice "I reckon you're right. I mean, back on the farm, we had our chores and routines, but at least we had the freedom to set our own pace. This whole TV thing's a whole different animal, eh?" Ezekiel said from right beside Cody. Bryan's eyes narrowed, his tone sharpening with a cruel edge, "Well, maybe if you stopped living in your little farm fantasy and joined the real world, you wouldn't be such dead weight around here." He smirked, relishing in his jab. However, seeing Ezekiel's hurt expression, Bryan quickly backpedaled, attempting to salvage the situation, "Hey, I didn't mean it like that, man. I'm just messing with ya." He said trying to sound friendly. Heather, sauntering by with a haughty smirk, couldn't resist adding her own snarky remark, "Oh please, Bryan. Save the faux camaraderie for someone who actually cares. We all know Ezekiel's just here to make up the numbers, not contribute anything meaningful." She glanced at Ezekiel with a dismissive flick of her hair, her disdain evident in her tone. "You two should respect others" Eric glared at both "Ezekiel might have a chance to make it farther! He avoided being eliminated first along side with you Heather" He shot back glaring at her. As Ezekiel friendly smiled at him.

Eventually it's morning and everyone is reunited in front of the Cast Trailer. Chris then begins approaching them "You're on a film set now and you're gonna learn that showbiz is not all red carpets and pool parties" Chris said as he Pointed at Owen for who knows what. "Today you're gonna get schooled on how tough on--set production life can be." he said as he walked to the other side where the girls were "What ever." Gwen said "I can deal. I once had a summer job at a petting zoo. It's so adorable, everybody feeding the adorable goats their adorable cabbages" She was explaining " but somebody, i.e. me, had to shovel up the less adorable end of the digestive process." She said. Ezekiel, scratching his head in confusion, piped up, "Um, well, I guess that's kinda like back on the farm when we had to muck out the barn after the animals... Not exactly glamorous work, eh?" He offered a sheepish grin, attempting to find common ground amidst Gwen's story.

"I know Ezekiel wants to try and fit in but i don't recommend bonding about goat Dudu" Eric said staring at the camera.

"Well, Speaking of number two,1" Chris said walking towards Gwen and Trent "It's time to pick your teammates!" He pointed to Gwen "And then try to stuck it to the team your boyfriend chooses" He added. "We're not gonna get all competitive and nasty are we?" Trent asked looking at Gwen "Absolutely no! We learned from last season, right?" She quickly replied as she walked to the left side of the cast trailers in front of the boys trailer and Trent to the right side. "Okay let's get this blood bath started" Chris said smiling "You're gonna choose schoolyard style, boy girl, boy girl. Ladies first." He said then smirked "Since we have no ladies here, Gwen" The camera does a closeup on Gwen She sighs" I don't know.... Duncan?" She said. Trent Gasps.

"I can't believe she just went ahead and chose Duncan!" Trent began to rant "I mean they're kind of alike and now she wants to be on the same team? What am I supposed to make of that?" He added feeling insecure, " You think you know a person"

Duncan walks towards Gwen and they High five. Trent has his brow furrowed. "I chose The Beautiful Lindsay!" He said just to spite her. "Yay!" Lindsay cheered when she was picked.

"The Beautiful?" Gwen said sounding betrayed " What was Trent trying to tick me off by picking Lindsay like that?" She crosses her arms "You think you know a person"

Gwen glares before choosing "Because i like to keep things cool," She began "I pick Leshawna." She said as Leshawna walked to her and Duncan "The girls are back in town!" Leshawna said high fiving Gwen. "Ohm you know what would be so great" Lindsay told Trent "is If you picked Tyler!" she said smiling wide. "Tyler's not in the game anymore" He told her "Seriously? Bummer" She frowned as Trent facepalms "I choose Justin" He said as Justin began walking toward him and Lindsay. "Oh, pick all the good-looking contestants!" Gwen said glaring "That'll get you far!" Duncan and Leshawna glare at Gwen. "It will in show biz!" Trent said. "Dj" Gwen said her arms on her hip. as DJ walked to her "beth!" Trent said as she walked to hi. Gwen was deciding between the two girls left and was going to choose before Leshawna leans to her "Remember, Keep your enemies, closer." She whispered. "No! Really? You don't mean..." Gwen didn't finish because Leshawna nods. "Fine.... We choose Heather." Izzy was Smiling Because she though she was going to get picked by Gwen, But when she says Heather even Heather is Surprised "Really?!" Heather said.

"It's about time someone realized who's the most valuable player here." Heather said "I mean, seriously, people."

Trent takes in his chooses, Owen, Harold, Eric, Cody, Daniel and Ezekiel. To Trent non of them seemed too a pealing well except both Owen and Eric, so her had to choose one and risk Gwen choosing the other. "I choose Owen!" He said as Owen went to Trent and High fived him "Woo-hoo!" Owen said. "Er, Hello? Don't wicked skills count for anything?" Harold asked "I mean who else here went to film camp, and is a fully trained as a junior cinematographer with a thorough knowledge of lighting filter film stock,..." He is interrupted by Gwen "I pic Harold, If for no other reason but to shut him up." She said "Wise choice" Harold said as he walked to Gwen "I guess Izzy is in our team" Trent said "Izzy!" She ignores him "She likes to be called Kaleidoscope" Lindsay leaned to Trent "Oh right E-scope." He said "Here!" Izzy said walking towards Trent. "Then Eric is with me" Gwen said as Eric smiled and ran towards Gwen But Glared at Heather. Trent then considered his options, A stranger, a misogynist nose digger or the guy who wanted his girl.

"Between Ezekiel, Bryan and Cody, It was a Hard choice, But then i thought... why not just have Cody on my team and not have him with Gwen" Trent said

"I choose Cody!" Trent said as Cody quickly went to his team. Gwen looked at the bottom two Options and well it was a tough choice Eric had to help Gwen pick a better choice he leans to her "Pick Zeke, You wouldn't want two Heathers in your team..."

he whispered discreetly. Gwen hesitated, then nodded, "I guess I choose Ezekiel," she said, her voice almost uncertain. Meanwhile, Bryan watched Gwen pick Ezekiel over him, his expression a mix of disappointment and resignation. "Well, I guess that's how it goes," he muttered under his breath, trying to maintain his composure. Heather, ever the competitive spirit, couldn't help but voice her disagreement. "Seriously, Gwen? Ezekiel? He's practically dead weight! You're better off with someone like Bryan," she argued, her tone dripping with disdain. Ezekiel, who had been standing nervously, heard Gwen's decision and couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude. "Thanks, Gwen," he said, a genuine smile spreading across his face. It was clear that being chosen meant a lot to him, despite Heather's criticisms. Eric smiled as Ezekiel joined the team well he was the only one who smiled. "Then Bryan is with me" Trent said as Bryan Walked towards Trent.

"Now you have it coming for you Eric! I know you told Gwen to choose, the homeschool misogynist. I'll just have to prove to you that You made the wrong choice by making me you adversary dear brother!" Bryan said glaring "As for you, Ezekiel, don't think for a second that being picked over me means you're worth anything. You'll always be the bottom of the barrel, just like your intelligence."

Chris walked toward Gwen's team "Gwen I Christen you team as The Screaming Gaffers!" He said before running towards Trent's team "Trent' You're the killer Grips." He told Trent. "Grip? I don't want to be a grip." Beth said as Bryan rolled his eyes. "Please!" Heather said rolling her eyes "It's not like being called a gaffer is something to brag about. It sounds like something that has rabies." She continued as there a sudden crash and glass breaking. The camera turns to two crew who were actual gaffers "I'm sick and Tired of getting no respect around here!" the two of them began walking off The camera then returns to the cast, "Okay since we're running late now and don't seem to have any more, um... What ever... those two crew dudes did... We'd better get going" Chris said as he led us to the fake mountain and right in front were set equipment "your challenger for each team- to set up a a film set." Chris said "Ha! We'll be scarfing flapjacks by 7:00" Leshawna said smiling. "Oh, Will you?" He smirked "As location manager," he had a devilish grin "I would like your sets to go..... There!" He said pointing to the top of the fake mounting "You just love doing this to us!" Gwen asked glaring at Chris. "Yes, Yes, I do." He smirked as He pulled out a walkie talkie "Chef! Clear for Traffic up there?" He asked "Lights!" He began as People ran to their teams set and grabbed something "Camera... Action!" He finished. Everyone was Taking things up the mountain. Eric was Helping Ezekiel "Hey, Eric, thanks a bunch for, like, telling Gwen to pick me, eh? It really means a lot." He said smiling as they went up "No problem, Ezekiel. I'd take someone easygoing like you over Bryan any day." He said smiling at Ezekiel who smiled at him. "Oh, gee, thanks, eh? I'll do my best to, you know, show I'm worth it." He added "No worries! I'll Help You!" He told him as they kept running. As They all ran up Gwen almost fell back and Duncan helped her from falling just as Trent stops "What are you doing with him?" He said his voice tinged with insecurity. "Er, we're on the same team?" She answered him, Trent continued to run but stepped on the lights cable and fell. Gwen was walking to help him but Lindsay was faster than her and She helped him "And we are on the same team." He said as he and Lindsay ran. Gwen glared at him as Heather bumped into Duncan and the kart she had rolled down the mountain "Please! this is crazy inefficient!" She said "I say we organize relay style and pass the equipment up." She said just as Eric and Ezekiel pass by them holding one of the big lights together. They stopped for a moment. "Um, well, I kinda think Heather's idea makes sense, Eric. It's like, teamwork and stuff, right?" He said and looked at Eric. Eric, with a hint of resentment towards Heather "Yeah, maybe it does, but since it's Heather's brilliant plan, it's probably not the way to go," he remarked sarcastically, casting a glance in Heather's direction. "Let's keep going or we will fall behind." He added as the two continued. "If you say it We're not doing it" Gwen also replied as she and Duncan kept going up. "But, It's A good Idea!" Heather placer her hands on her hip. "I'm totally with you." Harold said behind heather "Write down all your good ideas, and we can bring them up at the next team meeting. I'll second you. Cool?" He asked as She walked back down "Go jump in a like trout lips" She said as she left. Trent was running with the light as he held the necklace out "Come on lucky Necklace... Papa Trent needs you" He said as he was reaching Izzy. She laughs "Wow! I thought I was Crazy" She told him "You're talking to Jewelry?" She asked "You are Crazy." he told her "I am just trying to help our team win this thing" He continued he hid the necklace. "Hey! That;s what i am trying to do too" She continued " "If you got lucky earrings, I'd be glad to have a little chat with them Huh?" She yelled at him as He ran faster.

Meanwhile Cody and Bryan were working togeter "So Cody,... want to work together with me dude?" He asked trying to sound nice. "Thanks but no thanks, I've seen how you've been acting... and seen how even your own brother doesn't want you near him. And he was like that with heather and we all know how heather is" He said as they continued "But what id Eric is lying about me huh?" He tried to argument as Cody looks at him and ponders before giving him the benefit of the doubt. "It's Neck to neck people!" Chris said "And now for the bigger stuff." Trent arrived to his team "How the heck are we going to get those trailers all the way up the hill?" He asked his team "I have a great Idea!" Lindsay spoke up

"It's so great to be free from Heather. I can totally contribute more and stuff" Lindsay said smiling "I have a lot of unwrapped potential you know."

"Let's get Tyler to do it!" She said happily "He's not here anymore!" Everyone on the grips yelled. "Seriously! Now I get why Heather called you Lindsiot," Bryan blurted out, his tone slipping into an insincere apology as he realized his mistake, feeling the collective gaze of everyone in the room. "Uh, sorry, Lindsay. I didn't mean it like that," Bryan backpedaled hastily, his attempt at an apology sounding somewhat forced, though he hoped it would suffice to smooth things over.

"It's like, seriously difficult trying to act nice when half the people on my team are complete morons. I mean, what am I supposed to do? Keep pretending everything's peachy when they keep pulling stunts like this? Ugh, it's gonna be a long season." Bryan rolls his eyes, clearly exasperated by the dynamics within his team frustration evident on his tone

Owen's stomach began rumbling "Owen, There's catering at the top of the hill. Just take that trailer up there with you and you can eat" Trent said "Eat! I love eat!" Owen said as he took off his belt and used it to pull the trailer up the mountain like a sleigh. As Trent Ran beside Owen and Izzy he turned back to shout "Hey, new best friends! How do you like that?" He began "Are you gonna cry together, punk wannabes?" He said "Cause your team is going down!" The Gaffers all Gasp at Trent's comment. "That's a low blow Trent!" Eric shouted "Gwen and Duncan ain't no possers. eh!" Ezekiel said back defending them "Uh..." Gwen began "Thanks Zeke." She said "Yeah Thanks' Home school." Duncan said. "Er, not cool. Not cool at all." He said crossing his arms "Oh don't worry. We are taking Trent" Gwen began "I mean that team down!" She glanced at DJ "Oh, no. Don't expect me to...What if the trailer slips and rolls back down the hill and possibly hurts someone?" Dj said as he refused to do it. "What Then? I couldn't handle being responsible for that" Ezekiel was going to suggest he would do it but Eric stopped him. "Without his belt holding them up, his pants are slowing Owen down" Chris said "Looks like the Screaming Gaffers Still have a chance. " Chris turns to the camera "Will DJ step up to the plate and save the day? " "I said no!" DJ shouted " Find out after the break to see if DJ rises to the call of duty ." He said As DJ stepped right in the camera's point of view "I'm not gonna do it" The camera fades out

The camera fades in show the cliff where they were taking the trailers. The Grips were slowing down as Owen took the trailer up to the cliff, While Dj was refusing to take the trailer up. Sadly Owen won the first part of the challenger for the grips. "Not Exactly" Chris said cutting the celebration from the grips short "Pardon?" Beth asked "That was only the first part of the challenge" Chris said placing Beth hands down "Did I neglect to mention that?" Bryan scoffed at Chris as he crossed his arms as the grips frowned. "It;s time to make a movie!" Chris said as both teams were now at the top of the hill. "And what we've got here is the set for a tearjerker Starting an Elderly lady considering her long life" He said "Boring!" Trent said "More like snore!" Bryan said as he and Trent fist bumped. "I can't believe we don't have a trailer." Harold said frowning. "We are so not going to be able to properly apply make up. without vanity lighting." Heather said her arms around her hip. "This could spell disaster! Thanks Dj!" She added "Hey, Hey! Don't pick on DJ" Eric glared at her "I get him, He feared one of us or crew member would get hurt... but we might be able to use the Make up confessional right?" He said as he looked at Chris. "Wrong!" He said smiling as Eric sighed "You guys will be making" Chris begins talking to the grips "a feature about a thug who tries to go straight, but can't resist the lure of the street" He added "Yeah, It's been done." Gwen said as Heather angrily glares at Chris "Hey, What about lunch?" She began "We've been working for eight hours! and you are legally obligated by union rules to give us a meal break." She said angrily. "Oh yeah? Who here is in the union?" He asked as He raised his hand only "Yeah I thought so." He smiled "And now it's time to choose an actor to perform a scene." He explained the second part of the challenge. "Chef give the teams their scenes" He said as he turned to Chef. Trent and Gwen each received their scenes.

A/N: I'm going to be dividing the preparation of the scenes by teams but they are happening at the same time.

Killer Grips: Trent opens his envelope as he sees the character "Alright, we need an old lady." He turned to his team as Izzy Moved forward excited "oh, please, Let me do it!" She ran towards Trent "It's got to be me. I've got an old soul. I'm like 67 years old on the Inside. 'cause I've been reincarnate a whole bunch of times." She explained as Bryan exchanged glances with Cody. "Actually, I;m the reincarnation of my very own Granny Mavis.." She said as she ran to trent "Aye there laddies. You spilt a wee bit of haggis on your kilt! And I can tell you. Our luck's rising up to the clouds!" She finished and then does a scene salute. "OKay! Fine" the grips all yell at the same time.

Bryan's expression is a mix of irritation and disbelief as he recounts Izzy's over-the-top antics. "Seriously, Izzy is like a walking disaster waiting to happen. She's so utterly ridiculous, it's actually painful to watch. I mean, who in their right mind thinks they're the reincarnation of their own grandma? It's just... beyond absurd. And her whole old lady act? It's like she's trying way too hard to stand out. But hey, if that's what floats her boat, who am I to judge? I'll just sit back and enjoy the show while it lasts, I guess." Bryan smirks with a hint of amusement, clearly reveling in his own superiority.

"Alright! Set Up the shop" Chris explained "Who ever can ger Chef, Mr. ex Army Corporal to show any emotion. wins the challenge" Beth is setting up the lighting on the spot where Izzy was going to be as Lindsay applies powder on Izzy "Your Make up, is gorgeous!" Lindsay said smiling. "And Now I'm gonna make you really feel like an old Lady." She said as she kept applying make up "I feel like 80 years have passed as they started to adjust the lighting" Izzy said frustrated " Don't Move!" Beth said from above "Need Help Beth?" Bryan asked as she shook her head. "Oh don't worry. i can't." Izzy explained "My legs are totally asleep." She added. "Could I get that last line again?" Owen asked as Izzy Grabbed the microphone. "MY LEGS ARE TOTALLY ASLEEP!" She shouted into breaking Owens hearing. "And That's gonna leave a mark" Cody said from beside Owen as He glanced up at Beth and Next to Her Bryan he Knows Bryan has said a few mean comments that day but he was going to trust him for now.

"Yeah, I've seen some moments where Bryan's been pretty mean to people. But I guess I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. I mean, I've heard that brothers can hate each other sometimes, you know? And Eric and Bryan, well, they're brothers after all. So maybe there's more to their dynamic that I don't understand. I'm not gonna be quick to judge, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on things." Cody nods decisively, his willingness to see the best in people evident in his expression

Lindsay has a lot of colored tape as he was viewing which to pick "There are seven colors on this tape roll thingy." She said viewing the tapes. Bryan was now helping her because he got tired of trying to help Beth. "But I don't know which one to use" She added "Uh just use one Lind...say" He said resisting calling her Lindsiot. "Okay But what kind of a shape would a makr be??" She looked at marked confused "An 'M' for mark or..." Bryan facepalmed.

"Seriously, dealing with Lindsay's lack of brain cells is like trying to navigate a maze blindfolded. I mean, does she really not know what shape a mark is supposed to be? Is she dumb for real or is she just putting on an act? Either way, it's like trying to teach quantum physics to a hamster. It's exhausting, man. But hey, at least I'm not dealing with Beth's cluelessness anymore. I mean, which is worse? Lindsay's idiocy or Beth's utter uselessness with the lights? It's like choosing between drowning and being burned alive. Can't catch a break with these teammates, that's for sure." Bryan shakes his head in disbelief, his annoyance at Lindsay's apparent dimwittedness and Beth's incompetence

"Er... my legs are starting to tingle" Izzy said with a tired voice as she began to rock "I don't think I can hold much longer" and she falls as Lindsay has a small piece of red Tape and places it on the floor "Oh, we had the lighting just right..." Beth whined "Get back to first positions." Trent ordered "It's been decades" Izzy sounded frustrated "Can we just get the ball rolling on my eventual best actress nomination?" She asked. "And Now! Time for the final Hair and Make up" Chris announced. Lindsay finished The clothing, Hair and Make up for Izzy "Wow! You don't look like you!" Lindsay said smiling "Aye, Lassie. That's on account of me being a master thespian!" Izzy said "Just make sure you lose the Scottish burr. Okay, Granny McE-Scope?" Trent said as he walked past Izzy.

Screaming Gaffers: Gwen opens the envelope and read the title of the Scene "Big Lucky Parmeggiano" She said "A tough guy" Heather spoke as they turned their attention to Duncan carvin s skull ."What?" he asked "You have got to play the Ganster" Gwen said "Don't type cast me" He said glaring "I don't even know if I can act." He added. "You want Harold To do It? He's tough as Butter." Heather said crossing her arms "And no way Ezekiel is doing it. I mean, come on, a homeschool like him? He wouldn't know tough if it hit him in the face." Her smirk revealed her disdain for Ezekiel's perceived lack of street smarts. Eric glared at Heather.

"I seriously can't stand how Heather treats Ezekiel. I mean, sure, he's homeschooled, but that doesn't mean he's any less capable. The guy's got heart, you know? And yet, Heather just can't resist taking shots at him every chance she gets. It's like she's got this need to put him down to make herself feel better. And after everything from last season, you'd think she'd learn, especially considering she's bald and still picking on other people. But no, she's just as mean as ever. Well, let me tell you, it's not gonna fly with me. Ezekiel deserves better than that, and I'm not gonna let Heather get away with her mean-spirited nonsense." Eric said defending Ezekiel despite not being close friends with him yet.

"And don't expect DJ to be a tough guy. Thats for sure." Cheff said smiling from the side "How can you say that?" DJ's voice broke "Come on! This is a rrole you were born to play!" Gwen said "You just have to be you." She added smiling as Duncan grabbed his script "Alright! Set Up the shop" Chris explained "Who ever can ger Chef, Mr ex Army Corporal to show any emotion. wins the challenge". Duncan was reading and viewing the scrip before he spoked "One, I can;t memorize this much" He began as he viewed his lines "and two, thise lines are way out of left field!" He said holding it as Eric walks towards him to read the Line. "Just say what's written and quit being such a Primadonna." Heather said as Eric glares at her "I agree with Duncan, here... these lines don't seem like.." Eric is cut off by Ezekiel "Eric, uh, Can i get a little help over here" He said as he was some how tied up with the lights cable. He quickly went to help Ezekiel. "How did that Happen?" he asked as he ran to him. "We all have a job to do" Leshawna then joined Heather and Duncan;s conversation. "So you just stan there and look pretty.\okay?" Heather continued "Pretty Boy?" She poked him "Don't call me pretty" he said angrily "The last guy who called me pretty ended up Looking a lot less pretty." He said angrily Chris was watching as he laughs "Friction between the crew and talent" he said smirking. "I love it! It's like a real film set" He added Gwen walked close to them "You are not pretty okay, Duncan?" She say calming him "You are hot, okay? You look hot. Sexy! Stud Like!" Gwen said, Trent was doing who knows what on his side as he heard gwen and he raised and eyebrow. "That's better" Duncan said. "I can't believe they settle that so fast." He said frowning. "Some times this business really stinks" He said facing the camera. Heather was walking behind the set of the tough guy scene "No wonder we're taking so long! this place is a mess" Heather continued walking not noticing where she was going. "Uh Heather, " Ezekiel was going to warn her but she kept going "And you have..." her foot got tangled with the cables "Ow! what the...?" she tuggs her leg causing a light to fall and making her be listed and ended up hanging in the air as she yells "ooooo! I know You did this Leshawna!" She yelled. "Help! I am Gonna Need a little help here people." She said as Eric smiles and Ezekiel looks concerned and guilty because he was the one to set up that light.

"Gosh, I feel awful about what happened to Heather. Eric and I were setting up those lights, and I reckon I didn't realize one of the cables was in Heather's path. Next thing I know, she's all tangled up and hanging in the air. It was like a scene straight out of a wild adventure tale. I wanted to warn her, but she just kept walking, and then it was too late. Now she's blaming Leshawna for it all, and I can't help but feel responsible. I hope she's alright and that she doesn't hold it against me." Ezekiel's expression is one of genuine concern and worry,

Harold then eventually helps Heather down. "And Now! Time for the final Hair and Make up" Chris announced. Dj Walks toward Dj holding a Bag with Make uo "This light is Just appalling" He began as he began to put make up on Duncan "How am I supposed to work without a proper trailer and lighting?" He continued sounding a bit mean as the Gwen gasped "I mean, could you tilt that oretty chin up jusst a smidge?" He voice sweet. "That's enough!" Chef shouts and pulls Dj away and sat him in his chair "What?" DJ Asked "My mama always told ne I had a fkair for applying her church make up" He began "So I figured...." He was cut off "We've got to toughen you up, Big old Marshmallow." Chef shouted at him.

"I've got to admit, I see a bit of myself in DJ. But I had to develop the macho with myself without somebody like me helping." Chef explained "This is going to be fun."

Chef began pacing back and Forth infront of DJ "Here's the deal, I'll help you man up to win this thing." Chef began "You don't ask any stupid questions and you split the prize with me." He gets close to Chef "like they say, it's an offer you can't refuse. I won't let you" he threatened. Leshawna gave Duncan a hat and Harold gave him a prop gun.

A/N: Not its back to one.

Chris smiled as he is ready to begin the challenge "And that's...... Action!" He said lowly. As Each side began their scenes, as they played out Chris and Chef realized they didn't checked the scrips when they labeled them so Izzy had the tough guy scene and Duncan the granny scene. Bryan face palms as he sees his team's scene play out as he sees that its not going to do anything to pull at Chef's heartstring. He knows it he can fill it and he doesn't care because That means one less useless teammate when they lose. Non of the Scene were actually doing anything but since Chef was in a Alliance with DJ he decided to throw the challenge for the grips. So he Fake cried to make them win Joining Heather, Leshawna and Ezekiel in the crying. Even if it was fake from Chef's part. "Er... Cut" Chris said sniffling as he whipped some tears off "Okay, enough! It's too much for Chef to take!" He announced "Duncan Clearly wins for best performance. The Screaming Gaffers win it." He announced as Duncan looked surprised. "Hey, Hey, I was robbed Yeah, I'll see you in the morgue Capisce!" Izzy said in a Italian Accent.

It Becomes night and The Gilded Chris Theme begins to play. The grips enter the award stadium and each take seats. as They Wait for Chris to start speaking as He walks to the center stage while Chef did a drum roll "And now, it's your turn to cast your votes" Chris said with his smile "and determine who will stroll down the walk of shame" The grips glance at the Lame-o-sine and the walk of shame as Owen and Beth gasp as if they've seen it for the first time "Under your seats you'll find voting devices," Chris explained as everyone grabbed their voting device " Just Press the button of the person you want voted off. It's easy so... Cast your votes!" He said smiling as everyone began casting their votes. "Who will it be?" He continued "Who will be cast off the set?" He said as soon Chef began to do drum rolls as a paper with the results comes out of a machine. "And it looks like all the votes have been cast. Chef..." He rips it and hands it to Chris "Remember if you get a gilded Chris, You get to stay because rather suitably the Gilded Chris represents the luster of fame and Immortal Greatness." He said as the Gilded Chrises appeared. "and Gilded Chrises go to...." He said as he began tossing them as he called them "Trent" He said as Trent caught his Gilded Chris. "Owen, Cody, Beth and.... Bryan" He tosses them in that order as they each catch them. "Mmmm." Owen groaned as he ate his Chocolate Gilded Chris "Oil- Covered Chocolate. " He said "And now, Three nominees left." He announced. "And the loser is...." He leaves a long pause before "Izzy!" She looks shocked "Tome To Go" Chris smiled pointing to the walk of shame "I'm not going anywhere." She said and crossed her arms "That's not my name!" Chris looks at Chef "Girl likes to be Kaleidoscope" He said "Can I get a Pen over here? It says E-Scope now. Okay?" He said scribbling on the paper. "And Remember you can never come back, Ever!" He said as he pressed the security button. Two wguys in white clothing escort her out "Take her to the Lame-o-Sine" He shouts as the Guys drag Izzy to the Lame-o-sine. then pushed her insdie and closed the door as It began to drive. He poked her head thru the roof window. "This was just a dress rehearsal, my darlings." She laughs then blows kisses "You'll see my star on the walk of fame! Mark my words....MARK THEM!" as The lame-o-sine drove away, the camera began fading to black intil it was completely black.

Horror Game Concept - First Person Survival Horror

Off the beaten path from my usual posts, but I wanted to put this down in writing after waking up from a very vivid nightmare. I thought about it and realized, "this would make an awesome idea for a horror game". For the record, no I didn't dream this entire concept. I dreamed about 60% of it and then lay awake for the rest of the night both spooked out of my mind and going over the finer details.

The Intro: A group of four college friends decide to go camping overnight at a nearby lake. During the late evening, the protagonist dons a pair of night vision goggles and sets off for a solo hike to get some pictures of the night life. The protag stumbles across what appears to be a maintenance hatch buried in a nearby cliff and is later attacked by a pair of vaguely rodent-like creatures who knock them down the tunnel. Queue the tutorial as the player learns to navigate the pitch-black bunker with the night vision googles, circumvent the two beasts, and turn on the power which scares away the two creatures. Returning to the campsite via the hatch, the protag finds more of the creature chasing their friends through the woods and brings them down the hatch to safety. Now sealed in, the foursome must figure out how to survive...

...THE UNDERGROUND.

The Setting: Over the course of the game, the player will learn more about the place they find themselves within. The bunker is a secret research laboratory set up by a local shady pharmaceutical company to run tests on animals. Information will reveal that a fictional local mushroom has a unique way of propagating during dry seasons. When the fungal spores are inhaled too freely, they burrow into the nervous system and produce a rabies like effect on the victim. The victim turns not only feral but cannibalistic, even if they were previously herbivorous, feeding relentlessly before dying off and creating a surplus of fertilizer for the spores to grow on. Historical accounts from Native Americans that lived in the area outlined stories of all sorts of animals going wild with hunger but noted that the effects do not occur within humans. The pharmaceutical company has been experimenting with test animals in an effort to synthesis a drug/stimulant for the military.

The Objective: The protag soon discovers that the creatures will not enter the basement due to the lights being on, but soon discovers that the power is out across all of the other floors, explaining the mass outbreak. Acquiring some blueprints in the basement shows that the bunker has a main entrance on the highest floor which can only be opened by the CEO when he enters every morning, as well as telephone lines on the upper floors as well. Having the only pair of night vision goggles, the protag resolves to find a safe way up to the highest floor in order to warn someone of the potential pandemic. Since the power is out across the entire structure, this means the protag must put themselves in harm's way to find a way out. All this must be completed before the CEO arrives at 4:00 am and unlocks the doors. Due to the seasons, the sun will still be down and the creatures will escape to terrorize the local town.

Completing a floor is as easy as finding the right punch code to the lift which unlocks the next floor. Thus, completing the game can be rather easy, if you are fine with the consequences of letting a pandemic of rapid monsters escape into the local town with you. Getting the right code starts out easy but soon becomes more of a puzzle the higher you go. The floors will get larger, the creatures more numerous, and false codes will be left to throw off your game. Don't even think about cheating the code, the resulting security alarm of putting in the wrong numbers will be an absolute dinner bell.

The Mechanics: The protag has a few ways of dealing with the creatures.

First and foremost are the night vision goggles which, due to the creature's poor eyesight, means you can see them before they see you. The googles will need to be recharged however, take too long on one floor and you'll lose your element of surprise. The goggles have a decently long lifespan, and the battery life is just meant to stop people from cheesing out creatures while adding a sense of urgency.

During the tutorial, the protag used their camera flash to disorient attacking creatures. The camera is an old 1950's Kodak gifted by distant relatives and packs quite a powerful flash. Unfortunately, it is not in pristine condition, meaning it only has a limited number of uses before it "breaks" and has to be fixed in a lit area. The camera is effectively your lives, it is only used when you are located and attacked by a creature and automatically stuns the attacker and all surrounding creatures allowing you to escape. Run out of camera flashes and its game over

In a unique stroke of luck, the protag discovers that the main means of entertainment in the bunker were dart boards. Throwing darts allow the player to create noises elsewhere, luring creatures away from objectives or throwing them off your scent. On their own, they don't make much noise, but you can get creative with them by knocking objects off shelves, shattering ceramics or glass, or pushing buttons. Obviously, they are a limited resource, but can be picked up once used. Don't for a second think of them as a weapon though, you'll regret it.

Not initially aware of the protag's presence in their hunting groups, the creatures can easily be lured away with darts or other means of causing noise. However, once they start hearing things they will soon go hunting for the source and will not stop until they find you, and you'll need more than throwing darts to trick them. Creatures who are visible have an "alertness" level that gradually grows the more noise the player causes. Louder noises generate more alertness and creature will become more dangerous the higher the alertness level is. The tiers of alertness are:

Foraging: Creatures are generally unaware of the players presence. They are less likely to respond to softer noises but will react strongly to louder noises. In Foraging mode, creatures can only detect the player if they close within a certain distance. Foraging creatures are less likely to wander.

Alert: Creatures are alerted but not fully aware of the player yet. They are more active in exploring and will respond more acutely to softer noises. If a creature has not yet entered Hunting mode, its detection radius will not change from that of Foraging mode and the alertness meter will decay over time. If the creature has previously entered Hunting mode, the detection radius will be somewhat increased, and the alertness meter will take much longer to decay.

Hunting: Creatures are aware a potential meal is nearby and will seek it at all costs. While Hunting, creatures will ignore soft noises, will attempt to track the player if possible, and will be much more active. A hunting creature will also start to raise other nearby creatures to Alert and then Hunting mode. Hunting creatures will never exit hunting mode on their own and the detection radius is greatly increased during this time.

Noise can be anything from shattering china, slamming doors, knocking over books, or setting off the elevator security alarms. The louder the noise, the more creatures you will lure with them. Don't take this system for granted; in the scramble to escape, the bunkers inhabitants left many unwitting traps for you to accidentally alert the creatures. Broken glass on the floor, cell phones spontaneously ringing, televisions and radios turning on at inconvenient times, and that stupid jack-in-the-box mascot who is everywhere and pops out with a terrifying giggle. Watch your step.

Scattered around the bunker are what appear to be blood bags, but not the hospital variety. These resemble water balloons but made of somewhat more durable materials. It's not clear whether these were used to feed the creatures or if these were parts of other experiments. Regardless, the creatures LOVE them. When thrown and subsequently burst on impact, the smell of fresh blood with drawn any nearby creature to the spray to consume the spilled blood. This is the only way to pacify Alert or Hunting creatures and throw them off your scent. These blood bags are not easy to come by, so use them sparingly.

In addition to the main objective of finding the punch codes, each floor has a backup generator. It becomes apparent that whatever or whoever let the creatures out also sabotaged the generators, but not too badly that you can't get them working again. Generators require much more scrounging, sneaking, and noisemaking than finding the code, but by turning them on the power will return to the floor and with it the lights. All creatures on the floor will die as a result and will lets you explore it to your leisure. Like I said, you will need to complete many more objectives, circumvent many more dangers, and enter rooms that you wouldn't normally need to in order to turn them on. While you can return to floors at a later date to try you hand at the generator again, more creatures will have moved in since you left making it even more of a challenge. Do you think it's worth the risk?

The creatures: These former test subjects have completely overrun all the other floors of the bunker. Most of them are local wildlife captured and experimented on by the pharmaceutical company. While they no longer have a means of escaping via the basement hatch, getting out means entering into their newly established territories. Due to the neurological damage created by the spores, the creatures are almost completely blind, and hunt and attack based on sound. They are incredibly light sensitive to the point that significant exposure causes death by heart attack. The player possesses night visions meaning you can see them, but they can't initially see you. Any sound or indication of potential prey however will put them on alert, and you had best hope they don't find you before you get out. All creatures bear signs of the parasitic fungus; usually in the form of larger teeth, mange, blind milky eyes, but some also show signs of genetic tampering from the company. While they cannot be killed directly, the player can trick them to their demise in a variety of ways. Some rooms still have residual power or can be temporarily powered by messing with wire and fuse boxes on the floor. The player can turn rooms into one use death traps to blast deadly light at any creature inside. Bookshelves and counters can be knocked over to crush unsuspecting victims and power cables can be triggered to electrocute anything that walks across them. Just be advised that any dying creature will alert everything else on the floor with its death scream, so be prepared to run rather than savor your victory.

Types of Creatures:

Rats are the basic enemies, although they are no longer small rodents you are familiar with. The companies experiments have mutated them into larger than normal creatures about the size of beagles. Rats usually come in pairs, and later in groups of three, so keep your eyes peeled for the whole pack.

Pigs are your typical juggernauts; they will idle about until alerted by sounds, upon which they charge blindly towards the target. Pigs are quick to enter Alert mode are take longer to return to foraging.

Desert hares are about the same size as rats but have much more sensitive hearing. They will respond more acutely to distant or softer sounds. While Alert, they will also pause to listen for the player, triggering a notice to stand still. Any movement during this time will rapidly raise their alertness meter.

Dogs introduce a new challenge. While Alert and Hunting, they will enter tracking mode in an effort to locate the player directly. With their enhanced noses, they can follow the players trail directly and it will take either a blood bag or a lot of noise to distract them from their quarry. They will only track for a set amount of time in Alert mode, but while Hunting they will pursue the trail until they find you.

All creatures make a noticeable amount of noise, enough for the player to usually hear them in the next room. Bobcats however make far less noise that other creatures and, once Alert, will often enter a stealth mode where they not only cannot be heard, but will sit immobile on the chance that the player blindly staggers into them. While immobile during stealth mode, their detection radius is greatly increased forcing the player to keep their eyes peeled.

Raccoons are crafty little sneaks. They can usually be found loitering around objectives in groups of two or three making them a direct hazard. However, once Alert, they will spread out and seek areas that the player frequents. They will be more vigilant in searching areas and take longer to leave. Alert raccoons establish patrols in areas in which they have heard noise. Be on guard facing these little devils.

Opossums try a less direct trick. Instead of hunting you directly, once Alert they will crawl into vents and airducts and wait for you to walk past. If they detect you, they will spring from the vent in a jump scare that requires a camera flash to shake off. They cannot enter Hunting mode and quickly leave Alert mode faster than other creatures. It is also easy to hear them inside a vent, due to their growling and hissing that indicates "do not pass".

Native Americans told stories about Wendigos that once roamed the woods during the dry seasons. It's easy to see this is just a mutant deer heavily infected with spores. You will only ever face this enemy once on the top floor acting as the "final boss" encounter as the player tries to complete the game. The confrontation lasts over several areas, such as rows of office cublicles, the cafeteria, and finally the halls of the head offices. Much more mutated than other creatures, it can stand upright on its hind legs for short timeframes, allowing it to better sense the player and giving extra speed while chasing. The Wendigo can also leap long distances allowing it to close the gap either down hallways or jumping over obstacles. The Wendigo starts on Alert and gradually begins to enter hunting mode over time, putting the encounter on a timer. As the encounter goes on, it will regularly call other creatures from the vents to assist it. Fortunately, this is a convenient distraction as the Wendigo will attack other creatures while in Hunting mode if it cannot detect the player.

The Huntress is only encountered on missions that involve returning to floors to complete side objectives with other survivors. A mountain lion with severe mutations, she is the only creature present during these encounters and can use abilities that all other creatures use (minus tracking). She is permanently in Hunting mode and cannot be killed. Instead, the player and the survivor must survive her for a set amount of time until the lights come back on and she is driven away.

The Company: It becomes clear over the course of the game that this outbreak is mere hours old, if not within the hour. Survivors are present across the dark halls and rooms. Rescuing a survivor adds another body to look out for and is not needed to complete the game. This mechanic is present for completionists, lore hunters, and lawful good players to have an additional challenge to the game. Survivors can be instructed to stay in one place, follow, or hide. All of whom are scientists (don't expect security guards with pistols) whom if rescued, will provide additional lore and clues about the company and its research. Rescuing is half the challenge, they will also request to be taken back to specific floors once the generators are turned on in order to gather their research, which they will then share will the protagonist for additional lore. Somehow (for reasons soon to be revealed) the power will cut out on these floors during these missions for a set amount of time requiring the player and scientist to both survive until the generator comes back. Leaving a floor without rescuing a survivor or turning on the generator results in all survivors on that floor ending up dead on future visits.

The Finale: Admittedly, my nightmare didn't get to this part, but I spent the remaining three hours of my night mulling this idea over while waiting for the sun to come up. Fully unlocking all lore and saving the scientists reveals the true culprit of the outbreak. All the scientists will hint of a disgruntled and somewhat disturbed janitor who is a recent hire, with a history of dishonorable discharge from the armed forces, untreated mental issues, and religious fanaticism, all of which combine to make a very unstable cocktail. The outbreak began as a result of the janitor sabotaging the He did this expecting the CEO to open the bunker in the morning and release the creatures into the world. Completing the final encounter with the Wendigo results in the creature crashing through the glass window of his hideout and immediately tearing him apart. The sparking light fixtures would flare on and kill the Wendigo in the process. Afterwards, the endings would play out depending on the players choices.

The Endings: Dependant on the players choices in completing the side objectives; saving survivors, finding documents, turning on generators.

Ending #1 Speed runners Ending: No survivors saved, no documents aquired, no generators fixed. The protag and their freinds baracade themselves in the CEO's office to hold off the creatures. They recieve a voicemail from the CEO reminding his secretary that its Friday and he will see her after the weekend. The still alive Wendigo then bursts in and presumably kills the protag and friends. This ending is meant to troll people who do zero side objectives and just speed run.

Ending #2 Outbreak Ending: Between 1-50% of objectives completed. The protag and friends try to send a distress call from the CEO's office but do not have clearance to use the phoneline. Perspective then shifts to the CEO who is walking up to the bunker in order to open it. He is listening to several garbled voicemails from the night before, including one presumably from the protag and friends pleading for help before hanging up and inputting the door code. He is promptly overrun by creatures escaping the building.

Ending #3 Freedom Ending: Between 51-75% of objectives completed. The protag and friends are unable to use the phone lines to call for help. Instead, one of the resuced scientists uses the CEO's code to open the bunker. As the protag and friends escape, they hear animal calls behind them and take cover as the creatures stampede out of the bunker down towards the town. Everyone survived the underground, but for how long?

Ending #4 Pariah Ending: Between 76-99% of objectives completed. Enough of the bunker was cleared to prevent a mass outbreak when the doors unlock. However, the CEO uses his influence and money to have the protag and friends arrested for trespass and discredits their names. Despite best attempts, nobody in the town believes the story about the bunker and the incident is hushed up as a chemical spill in the woods. The credits reveal the protag and friends moved out of the town later to go to college. The protag is shown reading a news report about escalating animal attacks in the area surrounding the town.

Ending #5 True Ending: All objectives completed. With the help of various scientists, the protagonist is able to contact the authorities ahead of the CEO's arrival as well as spend the rest of the night releasing documents onto the internet about the experiments conducted at the bunker. The national guard and local authorities are present when the bunker is unlocked and bear witness to the horrors within. A lengthy court case ensues, and the CEO is sent to prison with the company going bankrupt. Scene changes to several years later, the protag is revealed to have become a park ranger for the woods around the town. They revisit the now decaying remains of the bunker and recall that everything was dug out and scrubbed clean, but still refuse to stay in the park after sundown.

I know this sounds like a cross between Outlast and Resident Evil, but I thought it's a good tribute to you horror fans who like these kinds of things.

[asirensrage]

Oh hey 👋 I'm really interested in your Naruto; MHA and Tokyo revengers ocs. What can you tell me about them?

Hiiii! Oh man, okay...

Let's start with the Naruto OC:

Kei's fic is titled "the weight of all my sins". Kei is in her twenties and her pairing is with Kakashi. The two of them are friends who are clearly more but both refuse to admit it. Kei is (or was ) in ANBU and wears a mask like Kakashi's to hide her scars and help conceal her expressions. When she was a genin, her team was attacked by a rogue nin who basically tricked her sensei's animal partner into attacking her and her teammates. She believes she accidentally gave her sensei's position away allowing the enemy to kill him. Her relationship with Kakashi develops as she comes to terms with the things she's done and allowing him in. It's supposed to be a fic that looks into what it means to be a ninja and looks at grief, loss, sacrifice, murder, protection, acceptance and letting people in. I've posted snippets of it which can be found here, but no full fic. There's also her moodboard which can be found here. Her tag on my blog is "oc: kei".

MHA OC:

This is my girl Sayuri. Her fic is titled Dig My Grave (take my hand). It's a Dabi x oc fic. This is a darker fic that looks at childhood trauma, obsession and what you'll sacrifice of yourself to survive. Sayuri has a strength quirk and has been hiding it in an effort to live her life quietly and ensure no one from her past finds her again. Unfortunately, she uses her strength to save some children from a villain at the daycare she works at...and it was televised not long after Stain's ideology goes viral. Now she's faced with her past coming back to bite her, the League of Villains demanding her compliance to join, and the heroes trying to keep an eye on her. She's definitely angry and believes that the only good enemy is a dead on. There's a better explanation here lol. Her moodboard can be found here and her playlist can be found here. Her tag on my blog is "oc: sayuri".

finally, Tokyo Revengers oc!

This is my latest oc Takara. She's an isekai character, waking up one day to find herself in a new body, with a new family and the memories of a life she's never lived. Needless to say, it's a bit alarming but what's more alarming to her is the fact that she's not as scared as she should be. It becomes worse when her memories of her actual life start to fade. She's a little violent, can be manipulative, has a mouth like a sailor and is the epitome of "call an ambulance, but not for me!" Mainly because she's about 5'2" with an attitude that comes from having older brothers and playing multiple sports including hockey. She prefers to be on rollerblades because it makes her fast, is a bit antisocial and unafraid to fight even if she's not trained lol. She also tends to speak without thinking which is shown multiple times including when her first words to Hanma are: "What the fuck? Did your mother fuck a giant? Why the fuck are you so tall?”

The only person who seems to be aware that she doesn't belong is her "new" brother, Takemichi. When he reveals that he can time travel, she makes the choice to help him. Her attachment to her new brother grows, and while her future (and pairing) changes with every change he makes, she becomes determined to make sure that he survives to see the future. No matter what that costs her.

I'll share her moodboard in a proper intro post and I'll tag it here when I post it lol. Her tag on my blog is "oc: takara" and there are small snippets posted in answers to asks. Her playlist though is here.

Thanks for asking!

#this is a lot of links lol #i love them all #bravelittleflower #oc: takara #oc: sayuri #oc: kei #naruto oc #mha oc #tokyo revengers oc

Through the Looking Glass Ruins!!!!!

         …

         SO! Onto other things first…

         WRATH IS BRAXAS’ FATHER!??!!? HOLY SHIT, Wrath is a canonical dad, I’d always expressed my… OH MY GOD WRATH IS DAD! And of BRAXAS, that sweetie… How is Braxas such a sweetie with a father like HIM, also-

         Wrath was in casual wear? Either he has a day off, or he got fired by Belos/Kikimora after drawing Luz a map to Eda in Young Blood, Old Souls! Either way this guy has a sudden new level of NUANCE that I am reeling from, and yes I checked, that really is Wrath according to the credits! Dang this puts everything in a WHOLE new light…!

         AMITY HAIR OHMIGOD IT LOOKS SO ADORABLE SHE’S SELF-ACTUALIZING I AM FUCKING SCREAMING HOLY SHIT OH MY GOD!!! OH MY GOD OH MY GOD, it’s PINK and not green… They acknowledged it, Emira did! And they CHANGED IT I AM LOSING MY FUCKING MIND OVER THIS-

         She looks so BEAUTIFUL and I love the kind of foreshadowing with the bookends of our first shot of Amity having her hair down, and now it’s changed! And she looks adorable and EMIRA AND EDRIC BEING GREAT SIBLINGS I LOVE IT SO MUCH! This… THIS is everything I wanted! I was resigned to not much of them but HELL YEAH they’re being good siblings and we get a look at their rooms, we see them doing MAKEOVERS together this is everything from my favorite fanon content and MORE,

         Also Edric has a date?! Emira says ‘their’ mom… Unless the Golden Guard has a mom, DARN! Not gonna lie, I half-expected a big twist at the end that Edric was dating the Golden Guard, who was doing some sort of reconnaissance as his unrecognized normal self and/or screwing around with the Blights even further, but in a GENUINE sense… But then who knows Kikimora could be posing as GG’s ‘mom’, this is a stretch anyhow-

         JUST HELL YEAH Blight Twins! Blight Twins being sweet and mischievous and supportive of each other, Blight SIBLINGS being siblings, Emira being an older sister and giving advice! And AMITY, Amity mentioning how much Luz has changed stuff, I love that they acknowledge it openly how her life has completely shifted, and now… NOW…!

         No necklace! Red leggings! PINK HAIR?! Is this why Amity in the intro hasn’t been updated yet… She was getting TWO updates, so the animators decided to only animate a change after this final update?!

         King and Gus are also friends it seems, and they even recorded some fun together! I’m surprised at how much Bria and the others mock Gus’ illusion skills… Obviously Belos is kinda terrible but like; I don’t think he’d set aside an entire subset of magic into Illusions without reason! Also that nightmare trip… I LOVE IT, I love Gus applying the creativity of illusions in their ability to completely warp and distort someone’s sense of reality! And I called that dragon-thing being an illusion!

         A graveyard… I wonder if the Gallderstones (is that how it’s spelled) have any relevance or if they’re just neat? I hope Mattholomule and Gus help hide the Looking Glass Graveyard… Damn, that’s another Death reference with Gus, huh! Is it culminating in his respect for the dead, or will it continue further with Gus being a necromancer, or an Oracle who can commune with the deceased, and he has their respect as someone who treats them properly?!

         Also not to get dark but… What if all those Illusionists are dead because of Belos? I’m JUST SAYING…! And not gonna lie, every time someone insulted Illusions, I kept imagining the Illusion Head just suddenly waking up and feeling like there’s a disturbance in the force, as well as a weird compulsion to beat up some Glandus kids. It’d be even funnier if he had beef with the Construction, Plant, and Abomination Heads as well!

         Speaking of which, more confirmation on Construction Magic being related to earth! Glad to see Bria give us a look into that, which furthers my idea of Belos using construction magic… Also dang, Bria and the Glandus Kids really are the parallels/foils to the Detention kids! You’ve got the short ‘nice’ girl, the tall lanky kid, the furry… But the Glandus Kids start off looking nice and cool, but turn out to be rather nasty!

         Meanwhile the Detention Kids seem like bad news and delinquents, but no! They’re just demonized and actually very kind and chill! The Detention Kids are looked down upon, the Glandus Kids are appraised… The Detention Kids are dual-track, the Glandus Kids are singular; Glandus Kids from, well, GLANDUS, Detention Kids from Hexside… One’s ‘mischief’ is actually very neat and cool, the other’s is literal grave robbing.

         I guess that’s how the bleeding statues got past the censors- It’s technically just an illusion! Also more insight into how Glandus works with its Survival of the Fittest mentality, I wonder if we’ll get confirmation on which coven heads came from there, how that might influence them as adults…

         What is Glandus like, is it more whole-heartedly accepting of Belos’ rule, hence its harsh ideals? Was it made after Hexside? Does Bump hate it for being so cruel like that, or is it just school bias? And dang poor Mattholomule, I always had a feeling he sort of felt and knew that he wasn’t much, so he accepted and compensated by deliberately doing whatever he can for power…

         They confirmed he’s from Glandus, and I appreciate this new look at him! This new leaf turned… Hot take but he’s honestly not as bad as Boscha, his stint with Gus was a one-time thing that Gus was able to live with! And that seems pretty good to set them up as friends! Speaking of Boscha, Willow was injured by pixies? And the last time we heard of pixies, they belonged to Boscha and caused the school to get shut down… Did BOSCHA DO THIS I SWEAR SHE IS DEAD TO ME-

         (Also she’s mentioned in the credits for this episode but I don’t remember hearing her? I might’ve gotten distracted with so much other things.)

         Gus! I like the insight into his relationship with Illusions, and I appreciate how he’s considering other forms of magic… But this hesitation might just serve to reaffirm his believe in Illusions, which is okay! It’s all about choice… And yeah, it seems Gus also has a case of impostor syndrome like King, no wonder they get along so well! I love the glimpses into Gus’ house and the confirmation that he has a library card, no Perry though alas…!

         I appreciate how Gus feels overlooked, like he has no real substance, which is how his Illusions reflect a desire to draw attention, but also the idea that there’s nothing real beneath them… Again, very much like King! And Gus, he’s not a powerhouse like the rest, he’s SKILLED and smart, but strength isn’t his forte, it’s not brute force he operates on, but cleverness! Trickery, I like it…! It’s a nice callback to his last A-plot episode, SVSF, where instead of fighting Mattholomule physically, Gus’ solution is to think outside the box and pull the alarm!

         You go kid, not relying on brute strength but showing that some clever tricks and thinking are just as valid! Kinda wonder if this episode is lowkey a discussion on masculinity for young boys, especially with Gus growing older with puberty, though the latter is mostly because his actual VA grew… But maybe the writers rolled with that and incorporated it, or it’s just a very neat coincidence! Also, it is me or did Mattholomule’s voice change? And the gag that Gavin’s dad looks identical to him, even moreso because he’s NOT supposed to have a moustache… That’s great!

         Malphas! Love this reference to a classic demon, I wasn’t sure if Malphas was the librarian with glasses whom I’ve always headcanoned as a father figure to Amity… But maybe it’s actually this bird dude! He seems adept in Bard magic, and I love the reveal of his true crow appearance… Guess those theorists were right that the one-eyed figure is from the Forbidden Stacks! Also Malphas NOT COOL with Amity, but I’m glad Luz changed his mind, and I wonder how that adventure looked…

         Which- DAMN, the RSD with Luz! She looks so UTTERLY BROKEN when Amity mentions doing stupid things, and she didn’t mean it like that, but Luz just looks so completely shattered and you can tell she wants to cry but instead she bottles it up and tries to take it in stride, and that plays into her trying to overcompensate for her mistakes AGAIN… SOMEONE GET IT TO HER HEAD that she doesn’t need to! I’m scared for Luz, and I was SO scared this episode would end on a bad note…

         BUT DOAHLDdFAEONDKFHN LUMITY KISS LUMITY KISS! ONE-SIDED BUT THEY FINALLY FUCKING KNOW AND AMITY IS LIKE WHAAAAT AND I WAS WAITING FOR IT AND I COULD FEEL IT HAPPEN AND GAY KISS! GAY KISS ON-SCREEN!!! And the way Luz just FLOPS to the ground on her knees AAHJJFFKHGGK and no Alador nor Odalia to ruin this, UTTERLY PERFECT and the twins WATCHING OOOHHHHGGGG YYYEEAAAAHHH-

         This is EVERYTHING I ever wanted!

         What an AMAZING episode with wonderful characer beats and reveals! Again, Amity’s growth as a character, that brief insight into how Luz as a person is very chaotic and sometimes frustrating for Amity and forces her to reevaluate, but ultimately it’s good and Luz DOES try her best, and Amity clearly wanted to make things up for Luz and apologize, they’re BOTH doing things, just the little moments!

         Also, Alex Lawther voices Philip Wittebane! He has long hair and a vaguely british accent, he’s… He’s Belos isn’t he? And they got a new VA because having him voiced by Matthew Rhys would be really spoiler-y right? He’s got the long hair and he’s a nerd… And with how he talks of finding a way back home, maybe Belos really DOES just want to return home, after all? He talks of making a way back home…

         And we see a glimpse of the Portal, so it might’ve brought him there? Or did Philip succeed in making it, and that was his blueprint designs? Did he arrive by Titan’s Blood? What happened to the portal if it brought him there, or if he made it? Why the scar, why near Eda’s house, partially buried?

         Was it lost before he could finish his work, and Philip got side-tracked into something else… Perhaps going on a crusade, on behalf of a curse/demon that possessed him? A demon that killed King’s father…? Was the portal broken and he had to discard it, but then it naturally healed- Or did it just need to recharge, maybe Philip DID make it back home, WHAT IS THE ANSWER?! Is there some sort of doppelganger for Philip, is BELOS his doppelganger?! What is THIS WHAT-

         WHAT AN EPISODE!

You put your phone down as you start up your gaming computer, pressing the ‘power on’ button as it starts to load up. You then shift your chair closer to your desk while grabbing your headphones, fixing your mic you then put in your password for you computer getting onto discord, joining the call.

“Hey Y/N! Welcome!” You hear Yachi’s sweet voice coming from your headphones “hello yachi!”

She giggles as she starts talking about how they’re gonna start in a few minutes—there still waiting for a couple of people to join, Soon after more people had join and now you started the stream doing your intro you finally start playing.

You played of couple of rounds before getting tired, you saying bye to the stream and your friends as you log off for the night. You decided to take a nap to get your beauty rest, you getting off your gaming chair as you walk to your bed yawning then flopping down. You pulled your phone out as you start getting into a comfortable position to play on your phone for a couple of hours before you take a nap.

—

You wake up to the sound of your alarm, it read ‘animal crossing island tour at 4:00 PM’

What time was it now? You picked up for your phone to read ‘3:54 PM.’

“Shoot” you pause, You really didn’t wanna do anything right now but sleep so you go to Twitter explaining your tiredness.

You sigh out loud “ah.. I hope they can under-“ but before you can say anything your notifications blew up with affirmations that it was okay for you to do the tour tomorrow. You smile sweetly as you scroll through the comments and retweet’s. You decide to give them a little treat since your fandom was being so nice to you.

The Birth Of A Liar Part Four

||Part One||Part Two||Part Three||Part Four||Part Five||

I can’t believe I’ve written four of these already... but now is when things get a bit more interesting.

Trigger Warning: Kidnapping,ne*dles,and mentions of past Daganronpa executions.

It’s six years later, Kokichi and some of his orphan friends are in an orphanage. They had been found out. The building that they used to use, all the things that they stole and all their shared happy memories were now collecting dust in a damp abandoned brick structure. The men in the uniforms were very thorough in their orders. All the children wearing the clown masks and costumes that Halloween night were to be brought in. The Tokyo law enforcement building was now up to the brim with rowdy children calling for someone named “Kokichi Ouma”, the child who disappeared so many years ago. Who was to know he was housing orphans or children from bad homes. Even the father killer Maki Haruwaka was found. Kokichi refused to talk, afraid to trust adults after what he’s seen them do. They’ve murdered three people, two of which were his own parents. Who’s to say these people won’t hurt his new family?

Though all they did was gather them up, give them a big dinner to eat (even bigger than the meals that DICE usually gives), before taking them to the local orphanage, Kokichi included. One would think that he would be a bit happy, he and the other Co Leaders didn’t have the weighted responsibility of the lives of over a thousand children. Though Kokichi was not relieved. He was even more worried. Especially since one of his ten Co Leaders didn’t come back. A day didn’t go by where Kokichi didn’t worry about Maki. Where did she go? Why wasn’t she caught like the rest? Did she and Goro go back to their real home? And what about Hanako? So many thoughts preoccupied his head that he almost couldn’t get himself awake that morning. Luckily the younger kids were able to wake him up, placing his hand in cold water and pouring water on him to make it seem like he had wet himself. The cold water wakes him up instantly, his body jolting out of bed in the sitting position. “Wha-?” He pulls his covers noticing the wet spot. “Oh great...”

The eruption of laughter from the children woke him up even more. Grogginess made it hard for the leader to realize but after seeing the cup of water, the squirt bottle in one child’s hand, and the small evil Kokichi Ouma like grins behind poorly drawn clown masks he notices that his pranking skills have been passed on to the future faces of his club. “Nyhehehe, you got me good. I’ll be down for breakfast shortly.”

Once he shoos the kiddos off, he puts on his boring school clothes and heads downstairs. Once he got there, a roar of laughter and chatting filled his ears. It was by the television set in the living quarters...what kind of event would warrant such a joyful response from the others? Perhaps a new anime show had aired? Curiously he approaches only to hear that God awful song in his ears. The wretched rock intro to one of his most despised shows on television. Danganronpa. The black and white bear character comes close to the camera, smiles evily, then cuts to scenes of...well...violence. Violence and death. And the kids were eating this up like candy.

“Hey! The next season of Daganronpa is heading to you this year, and we want YOU to be apart of it!” A cheesy announcer cheerfully gloats as the children watch with happy giggling. This made Kokichi feel sick. “We’re accepting audition tapes to find the next ULTIMATE. Do you think YOU can be the last one standing in the Killing Game? Then send a video to ———————- and tell us why you think you’re perfect for Daganronpa! You must be eighteen or older to register. Wearenotresponsibleforanymemoryortraumawhenyouapply.”

That last comment went a bit too fast and it was very hard to hear the announcer over the loud music, but all of this did sound fishy.

“If I was in the killing game, I’d kill everyone and no one would even know!” Exclaimed one boy, a boy from DICE given he has a drawn clown mask in his hands. Being the leader Kokichi had to step up.

“That’s MURDER. Killing is MURDER. You’re a member of DICE. You should know better.”

The boy rolls his eyes. “Relax, Koki. It’s all fake. Do you really think a talking robot teddy would kill anyone?”

“Or turn them into butter? Or deep fry them alive? No that would be too horrible to be real but on television they can work their magic~!” Chimes in a girl, another one of DICE’s orphans. How could they like this?! Each time he saw another “body discovery” or even the way they executed the killers just....it was horrible! Probably edited with special effects and music for the audience but if you were there the music wouldn’t be and you’d be hearing every bit of pain they were experiencing. Why watch that? WHY give money to that!?

“Eighteen huh...oh yeah! Koki is turning eighteen in a few months! Why doesn’t Koki apply?”

“Yeah! Kokichi is the kindest bestest leader of our group! If anyone could win it would be Kiki!”

All the eyes were on him now and he...froze up? Even if he was a leader and the founder of an organization, being the center of attention for such a large audience not of just his members made him fill with anxiety. Watching his every move, listening to his every word, it was enough pressure as it was to have all these kids look up to you. “Uhh...sorry. I don’t kill. And I don’t expect to be killed anytime soon thank you very much.” What sort of leader would go back on his own word? Death was horrible. Glorifying death, glorifying grief and pain...he didn’t want to have anything to do with that sort of philosophy.

“You don’t have to kill! You can just uncover the mastermind! And with the prize money for winning we could build back up the headquarters and leave this place!”

Wait...prize money? There was prize money for a game about killing people? Or is it for the one who survives? The children continue to root for him to apply not understanding the real consequences of him doing so. The purple haired boy put his hand to his head to massage the ever growing tension that was slowly rising. “I-I dunno...I-I’ll see.” That wasn’t a very satisfactory answer for the children as they cried out in disappointment. This was a big deal...he couldn’t just decide to do this right away. His quick to act intuition had failed him before, and he tries to take what Maki said to heart to not make the same mistake twice.

All the children gathered around the table to eat breakfast. Honestly Kokichi wasn’t hungry at that moment. He would only nibble a little on his eggs and toast before telling the workers he was full. The others wouldn’t stop begging him to join and it made his stomach feel sick. He quickly left for school.

Walking through the halls of his high school, he spots a peculiar poster hung outside one of the AV Room. It had that bear on it. That grinning bear that so gleefully sends those people to their deaths. What was his name? Mononucleosis? Monogram? Meh. Who cares. The poster however had the words “Daganronpa Audition Sign Up” in big letters above the smirking ursine. Blinking a few times, Kokichi weighs the situation. If he doesn’t do something about this, more stupid kids will be sent to their death in front of millions of people. However if he somehow RUINS the game, maybe he could stop it entirely!

There it was. His new goal! A purpose to save everyone before they’ve tricked into this horrific trap!

“Are you here for the audition? Hellooooo? Excuse me?”

He was pulled out of his thoughts by a girl with glasses, her uniform wasn’t the same the girl’s wore here however...maybe she worked for Daganronpa? No...she was definitely a high schooler. Even her bag mentioned an “anime club” which was featured right across it. There was definitely no anime club here but he knew other schools had them. Kokichi turns to the female, his words stuck in his throat.

“Umm y-yeah. Yes I am.”

“You’re really short for an upperclassman. Are you eighteen?”

“Yes, I-I mean close to it. My birthday is in two months...” Shit why was he being so shy now? Yeah the blue haired girl was pretty, but he wasn’t attracted to her! Maybe it was the fact she works for a big television company and that intimidated him?

“That’s fine, the next season won’t start for three months anyway so I think you’ll be fine...” The girl then holds out a clipboard with many forms on it and a pen to use. Kokichi stares at it confused. The girl gives him a reassuring smile and waved her arms in front of her. “Oh no need to be alarmed by that, it’s just tv speak. You know, that we’re able to use your name and face and everything.” The girl explains. Well...she didn’t say anything about risking their real life...so maybe it was okay.

He signs in every page that needed it, hardly reading the fine print. The girl smiles and places the forms in another folder to make everything neat. However from the corner of his eye he could see a familiar sign of someone on one of the forms. The name “Maki Haruwaka” written on one form in the folder. His eyes went wide. No...it couldn’t be the SAME Maki Haruwaka right? She hated death as much as he did! Still knowing that she was still out there gave him a small amount of relief. Maybe he really shouldn’t have done it, but Kokichi spoke up.

“Maki Haruwaka signed up too?” The blue haired girl tilts her head looking curiously up at him. “Oh? You know her? Why yes! She goes to my school so I see her a few times in the halls. Oh that’s right! You two were running an orphanage together, right?” Kokichi nods hesitantly. He hasn’t seen her for a good six years, what could she be doing right now? Were her siblings safe as well? What about the other DICE members? “Aww that sounds like a good anime plot. I’ll have to look into if anyone has already done it.” she pushes up her glasses. “Anyway you want to use the AV room to record your video, right?”

“My what now?”

“Your audition tape!” She takes one video tape from a box to show as an example. “Don’t worry the tapes are private and the camera won’t start recording until you press the button on its control panel.”

Well that....was sort of comfortable he guesses. He nods and hesitantly made his way inside. The AV room looked a lot different then he thought it would. Most chairs were put up to the side, a square made of white tape stood on the wooden floor in front of a large television set and a camera mounted to the top of it. Gulping to himself, Kokichi gets closer to the camera. His shiny blueish purple hair illuminated the television screen as his pale face hides his features behind his bangs.

He reached up both hands and quickly slapped his face. Now wasn’t the time to be timid and scared. He had to do this. For his friends, for the children of the world, for Maki, for DICE.

Clearing his throat, Kokichi puts up the biggest smile he could.

Then moves the bangs out of his face a little, and finally presses the record button.

“Hello adoring public, the name is Kokichi Ouma of Tokyo Japan! That’s right, the kid who hid away with a group of orphans for so long!” They should remember the story, after all it was worldwide news when it happened. Then he places his hands behind his head in an attempt to look more laid back. “I’ve led a whole raid on Tokyo, though we didn’t do anything illegal...yet.” He does his famous evil smile, his finger to his lips. “I’m an AVID fan of the Killing Games and who better to be in it than me~? I promise I will be the most interesting contestant you’ve ever had~!”

And with that he stopped the tape. That lie hurt to say, it felt gross even coming out of his mouth. But he had to. He had to for the sake of his family. Now it was done. He won’t even tell the kids back at the orphanage he did it. If he gets in he gets in.

Now all there was to do was to go back to his classes like normal. Though he could have sworn he saw the blue haired girl watching him closely as he leaves...

——————

Days went by and there was nothing out of the ordinary. No announcements, no more audition try outs or blue haired glasses girl, just normal every day school day. Again the children woke him up by pranks, this time a bucket of cold ice water, making him scream high pitched before laughing and taking the joke. Then downstairs there were breakfast and the kids watching the Daganronpa rerun, and then it was off to school.

The day was normal. There was nothing odd.

Weeeelll...except for that black car following him. He could have sworn he heard someone ask if “that was the guy” and the other one affirming with a “yes”. Oh Lord legs don’t fail him now.

He tries to leg it but was quickly swooped up by...grey people?! That’s as much as he could see before he was grabbed. As he struggled for freedom, he could feel something get shot into him, like the booster shots they get. It did hurt for a second, and Kokichi did twist and thrash for dear life, but suddenly his body felt...sleepy. He lets the exhaustion overcome him before he’s knocked out like a light.

Oh, we’re back...

I didn’t write over the weekend and I’m ok with that. Not to say that this feels like work but that breaks should be taken once in a while. Also, there was much to do around the house like cleaning, doing laundry, watching anime, reading manga, naps... oh the naps lol. 

That was basically my Saturday. Woke up around noon which I haven’t done in a long time. I, for the most part, wake up naturally around 7 or 8, but Friday night I intentionally took an extra dose of my allergy meds so I could get some steady sleep. I have a bad habit of waking up in the middle of the night for no real reason. After I got up I went right to laundry and cleaning my bedroom and bathroom. While the laundry was still running I read some manga and had some hot coffee which I only offer myself on the weekend because I can take the time to relax and enjoy it. During the week it’s usually iced americano so I can drink it down fast on my way to work. While I didn’t go to the gym or really do any workout videos (I usually follow some on YouTube) I did get quite the workout cleaning. I even broke a sweat, more than I usually get when I go walking. It was probably just from all the hot water in the shower though, steamy... After that I folded all the laundry and watched Black Clover. I love Capt. Yami and Magna, they’re just swell. Luck is my third favorite because of how crazy he is for a fight. 

On Sunday the SO and I had to go to the mall and take care of some things regarding our legal bindings.... Ok, no point in being secretive anymore, I’m married and we went and got new wedding rings. We upgraded significantly to be honest. Maybe I’ll post a pic in a few weeks once mine comes in. We spent an unexpectedly long time there and by the time we were done we kinda just went home and did nothing the rest of the day. Well, SO watched football and I finished folding the rest of the laundry from Saturday and started a watching Demon Slayer. That intro though!! I knew and listened to the intro a ton of times before I actually watched the anime and so far I am not disappointed. I like where the story is going and OF COURSE the villain is so cute!!! I got ISSUES!  But that was pretty much it for Sunday. Mostly uneventful and just meh.

TODAY, Monday. Such a promising beginning. I woke up before my second alarm went off (yes I’m one of those people that set multiple alarms in the morning) and got right into my workout. Managed to get a shower and get dressed in a reasonable about of time and even made my coffee instead of stopping at the demon mermaid chain (you know the one). Made it to work on time (kinda, only a few minutes late) and everything was going smoothly until about 11. Tons of email complaints, systems reset and delayed my work for 20 minutes, needy employees that don’t know how to keep track of their own account information, customer complaints calling in, AND THEN, to top it all off, a MASSIVE accounting error on my predecessors part that I have to fix. Yes, HAVE to fix because I was not able to resolve the issue while I was there today. I have to go in on my day off so that I can take the time (which will probably end up being about 5 hours) to go through all the account info and fix and adjust everything. The annoying part? I know people are going to try to ask me for things and when I tell them that I’m not “here” they’re going to complain and whine like children to my boss. Then, when my boss comes to me, I’m going to have to yell at him and tell him that I’m here on my day off to clean up someone else’s mess and I don’t HAVE to be here but I am CHOOSING to be here to help HIS stupid clusterfuck of a company so that the other people employed here can still have a job. END RANT. 

After I got home I cooked orange chicken and rice and did some singing therapy for over an hour. I talked to some friends on discord and was going to stream some audios with them but not everyone was available so we are saving it for another time. ALSO, I got some new anime gear from a friend on Tiktok and it’s of Shinsou from My Hero Academia!!! I love him so much <3

After all that, we are here, in my den at 10:15pm EST listening to Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap on repeat. It soothes me. What soothes you?

G.O.

🎬, you know it.

Ok, I hate myself for this. I’m sorry idk where this came from, but here you are 😂 I also tried so hard to have this written and posted actually on Valentine’s Day, but it turned out way longer than I was expecting, so my baaaad. 

Anywho, here’s my whack at a rom-com au (kinda) from this list of Valentine’s Day prompts

Greased Up Valentine’s Day

In which Harry and Y/N don’t have a regular movie night.

Word count: 12.2k OF NONSENSE

“Hurry up H, it’s starting,” you call to your boyfriend from where you’re sat on the couch. He mumbles an incoherent response from the kitchen where he’s finishing up popping a bag of popcorn, and you roll your eyes before focusing back on the animated intro of Grease that is starting to play on the TV. You hum to the sound of Frankie Valli’s voice as it booms from the television speakers while reaching for one of the chocolate-covered strawberries you picked up from a nearby grocery store to yours and Harry’s shared apartment and take a bite out of it; sighing pleasantly as the flavour envelops your taste buds.

The little old lady selling them at a stand near the grocery stores entrance earlier today lit right up as you approached her and was so excited to talk to you. She seemed very intrigued when you told her your Valentine’s Day plans consisted of a simple night in with the love of your life while watching some of your favourite movies, rather than making a big deal over the whole day. She frowned when you said that though and went into detail about the so-called magic that surrounds the day of love, and how you’ll understand that very soon. You listened to her spiel but didn’t really take any of it to heart as you mentioned you needed to get going so you could beat Harry home. 

After stating you’d like to purchase some of the delicious-looking strawberries she was selling, she didn’t let you take one of the packages she had out on display, but rather rushed to the back of the stand where she reached into a cooler and pulled out a completely different container of the chocolate covered fruit to give to you – saying it was her special batch and could “make people fall even more in love by granting their wishes;” to which you couldn’t help but chuckle at. She insisted that you didn’t pay, but you refused to walk away without giving her something for them; so, when she waved goodbye and looked away, you set a ten-dollar bill onto her table before briskly walking away from the stand and blending yourself into the crowd of people headed into the grocery store.

Once you were done buying all the groceries for yours and Harrys dinner tonight, you went back outside half expecting to be sassed by the sweet, yet odd older woman for leaving her money; but to your surprise her and her stand were gone without a trace, as if they’d never been there in the first place. You glanced down at the strawberries you’d packed into one of the bags and shook your head, feeling as if you were going crazy as you made way to your car and called Harry to tell him about what had just happened as you drove home.

Fast forward a couple of hours to present time where you and Harry have already finished making and eating the pasta and salad you bought once he’d gotten home from the studio and are now ready to start your movie night.

“We’ve seen this movie, so many times love, I don’t think it’ll be the end of the world if I miss a bit of the beginning,” Harry’s voice snaps you out of your trance as he appears in front of the television.

You scowl at him as you finish chewing on the piece of strawberry that still fills your mouth, while he chuckles and tosses a piece of popcorn at you. “Hush, and get your butt over here.”

An hour or so later, the two of you are still curled up on the couch, and you find yourself feeling rather sleepy. You fight to keep your eyes open as Frankie Avalon’s presence takes over the screen while singing Beauty School Dropout to Frenchy and lean your head onto Harry’s shoulder, cuddling up against his warm body as you somehow become even more tired. He glances down at you affectionately and smiles to himself as he shifts to wrap his arm around you, pulling you in even closer before reaching for one of the remaining strawberries and taking a bite of it; humming to himself in satisfaction. “What is with these things? They’re so good.”

“Don’t gotta tell me,” you mumble with a small smile dancing across your lips, before allowing a loud yawn escapes your mouth. You snuggle into the blanket that’s wrapped around the two of you even more before abruptly sitting up straight a little bit so you can get a better look at Harry. “Ever wonder what it’d be like to be in the world of Grease?”

“What?” He asks you incredulously as he chuckles at your words. “You feeling alright there, bub?”

He reaches to place his palm against your forehead, but you swat it away; rolling your eyes as his laughs become louder. “Oh, shut up. Breaking out in songs like Summer Nights and We Go Together or having a love like Sandy and Danny would be unreal, and you know it. I wish we could experience it, I think it’d be cool.”

“Whatever you say Y/N,” he jokes and with another sarcastic eye-roll, you allow yourself to lean against him again to watch more of the movie, and soon enough your eyes begin fluttering shut. Soon enough, the two of you eventually pass right out while cuddled up on the couch together.

You’re not sure how much time has passed since you fell asleep, but when the noise of multiple voices surrounds you; you think that maybe it’s time to wake up. You slowly open your eyes and let out a loud gasp when you see you aren’t laying on the comfy couch of yours and Harry’s apartment, but rather in the backseat of a car with three girls you’ve never met before.

“Christ Y/N, what was that for?” The brunette with short curly hair in the driver’s seat speaks up as she glares at you in the rear-view mirror.

“She was probably busy daydreaming about seeing her beau Riz, cut her some slack,” the girl sat beside you with longer light brown hair speaks up as she stares at herself in a small compact mirror and finishes touching up her lipstick.

“W-what?” You trip over your words as all three girls look at you now is if you’ve grown a second head, and that’s when you notice it. These girls aren’t just any girls, they’re Rizzo, Marty, and Jan; better known as The Pink Ladies in Grease, and they’ve even got the matching pink jackets to prove it. A surprised breath leaves your mouth as you glance down to see that you’re wearing a similar ensemble to the other three with your pink jacket, soft pink tank top, black pencil skirt, and fancy pair of black flats. Alarmed, you reach over to grab the compact mirror out of Marty’s hand so you can look at yourself and are taken back when you see your reflection. Everything about your face is the same, but with the way your hair is pulled back into a high ponytail with a long pink ribbon wrapped around it, and the soft pink eyeshadow that covers your eyelids; it’s just so different from how you’d dress in real life and it’s throwing you right off. “Oh my god.”

“I wasn’t done with that,” Marty grumbles as she snatches the mirror back and glares at you.

“This, this isn’t real.”

“Real?” Jan questions as she looks over her shoulder and takes a bite of an Oreo she’s holding. “Life isn’t real sweetie.”

“Can it, Jan,” Rizzo snaps before glancing back at you. “And to think we thought you were a normal one of us, but French might have you beat now. What’s gotten into you?”

“I don’t know,” you whisper mainly to yourself as you glance out the window and a large building with a sign saying Rydell High School in front of it comes into view and can only think of one thing…Holy shit, you’re actually in Grease.

None of the girls say anything as Rizzo turns into the parking lot and pulls up to a vacant space. They each climb out of the pink car and start walking away as you take it all in. This is by far the weirdest dream you’ve ever had because it just seems so real, but before your thoughts can carry you too far away; you snap out of it and rush after The Pink Ladies. 

You hear them talking about being seniors and instantly know what scene of the movie you’re in once you catch up to them, just as Marty reaches over to smack Jan and says, “Jan that is so adolescent!”

“We are adolescents,” Jan giggles as she continues nibbling on her Oreo.

“We don’t have to flaunt it,” Rizzo adds before looking back at you. She grabs your arm and gently pulls you between her and Jan to continue walking with them.

“This is going to be our year isn’t Y/N?” Marty asks from the other side of Rizzo.

“Uh, I guess…”

Rizzo just smirks in response to this before slinging the pink jacket she’s carrying over her shoulders, and looking at all of you before strutting forwards a little bit. “Okay girls, let’s go get ‘em.”

The four of you make way through the front doors of the school, earning gazes and particular looks as you all walk past everyone – looking as if you own the place. Everything about this feels so weird and you want nothing more than to just pinch yourself so you can wake up, but just as you consider doing that; an all too familiar British voice speaks up from down the hallway, and your eyes widen.

Leaning against some of the lockers is five boys all wearing different coloured leather jackets with a large T-Birds logo printed on the back. With them, standing awkwardly away from the lockers but looking fine as hell, is a sixth boy that you’d never seen in the movie before but are quick in recognizing to be your boyfriend of many years. You pause slightly and shake your head at the thought as you stare at his greased back curls and shiny leather jacket he wears, one that’s similar to what the other boys are wearing. The dimples that you’ve grown to love so much make themselves known as he smiles at something one of the guys have said, and you have to blink a couple of times to make sure its actually him you’re seeing. “Harry?”

At the sound of your voice, Harry snaps his gaze to yours and his striking green eyes widen once he sees you. Without even thinking, he steps away from the boys and makes way towards you; pushing through The Pink Ladies despite the whines and comments they make at him. The closer he gets, the more relieved you can tell he is to see you as he shakes his head and speaks up. “Y/N? What- you’re here to? I thought this was some weird-ass dream, but now I’m-.”

“Just as confused as I am,” you whisper, and glance at the group of people staring at you over Harry’s shoulder. You bite down on your bottom lip and slowly let your gaze fall back onto your boyfriend before letting out a huff. “Harry, what the hell is going on?”

“I wish I knew love, I just remember us watching the movie and now we’re in it? God, did we take some type of drugs or something?”

“Not that I’m aware of!” Your hushed voice rises as you continue taking in just how obscure all of this is. However, before anything else can be said; the bell rings to indicate that school has started. You look to Harry for an answer because there’s no way in hell that the two of you – two full ass grown adults are expected to go to a high school class; however as Marty marches her way over to you and starts pulling you down the hall and away from Harry; you don’t really get the chance to plan your escape to try and figure a way out of this all. You glance over your shoulder at Harry as he’s surrounded by the other guys, and he soon disappears out of sight as you turn around a corner. You look to Marty; who has now let go of your arm before starting to dig through her purse, and you shake your head again. “Where are we going?”

“Homeroom,” she states as if it should be a known fact and looks at you oddly. “Geez Y/N, are you sure you’re not sick? You’ve been acting really weird today.”

“Uh sorry, yeah I guess maybe I am.” Right? That’s the only logical explanation for all of this.

“Well I’d sure say so,” she mumbles as the two of you reach a door and she pushes it open to strut her way inside, you following right after. You both take a seat at one of the many long tables that fill the classroom and she isn’t long in speaking up again. “So, what’s with you and Styles, huh? I thought you were trying to patch things up with Danny.”

“Danny?” You ask skeptically and think back to how he was amongst the other T-Birds leaning against the lockers watching you and Harry moments ago. “There’s nothing between Danny and me, isn’t he with Sandy? Oh wait, he doesn’t know she’s here yet, does he?”

You feel as if you’re finally adapting to how this entire dream is going to work out and end up just like the movie. It has to, and ideally, by the end of it, you and Harry will be out of this weird alternate universe. As you think about how the entirety of the movie plays out, and how you and Harry are going to wake up from this as if nothing ever happened; you can’t help but sigh in relief until you look over at Marty to see her staring back at you with a confused expression. “Who is Sandy?”

“Danny’s girlfriend…”

“No, you’re Danny’s girlfriend.”

“Pardon?” You ask disbelievingly. “No, I’m not.” Danny isn’t real, you think to yourself, none of this is – but yet, everything else that has happened so far has proved you wrong; so you know it is brave of you to assume otherwise.

“Ok well maybe, not technically,” she agrees but isn’t long in justifying her argument. “But you’re the one who broke his heart at the beginning of summer, remember? I don’t know why though because literally, everyone wanted to have a relationship like the two of you had.”

“Marty, I actually have no clue what you’re talking about.”

“Ok, then I’ll show you,” she responds before standing up from her seat and walking towards the back of the room. You watch as she goes up to one of the bookcases and grabs one of the many yearbooks that line the shelves. Once she finds the one she’s looking for, she takes it off the shelf and walks back towards you; tossing it on the table in front of you with a loud thud, before sitting back down. “There’s last semesters yearbook, take a look for yourself.”

You look at her skeptically before sliding the yearbook towards you and opening it up. Amongst the first couple of pages you see pictures of many familiar faces of the people you know as the main characters of this movie; however, pictured with them is you and Harry, and in almost all of them you’re cuddled up against Danny Zuko’s side while he has his arm draped around your shoulder. As you flip through the pages, there’s even more evidence of what Marty said to actually be true, and it’s freaking you the hell out. This dream you thought you were living is turning to be much more than what you bargained for, and with that; you start panicking. “There’s no way.”

Without another word, you slam the book shut and begin pinching yourself. Marty clearly seems to think you’ve gone crazy by the look that’s written across her face, and quickly reaches over to grab onto your wrist so she can stop your actions. “Y/N, what are you doing?”

“Trying to wake up,” you mutter as you move your free arm to start pinching your opposite shoulder again. “Maybe if I pinch hard enough, it’ll work.”

“Can you stop?” Marty hisses and grabs ahold of your other hand. “You’re not dreaming, this is all real and people are going to think you’ve damn near lost it.”

“Well, I pretty much am feeling as though I have Marty,” you snap, and she lets out a huff.

“Let’s just drop it then,” she states with a defeated sigh and moves away. “Class is starting, can you at least try to act normal? People are looking at us weird.”

You mimic her tone under your breath as more people file into the room, and Sonny — one of the T-Birds, makes his way to the two of you and strikes up a conversation. You unintentionally drown out his voice as morning announcements start sounding over the PA system, and glance down at the yearbook; deciding to flip through it once again.

The way you and Harry look so naturally positioned in the pictures with everyone else truly blows your mind. Some of the photos show the two of you at school events, him working in the school’s auto shop, you sitting at lunch with Rizzo, Marty, Jan and Frenchy, and even your class picture amongst everyone else that is apparently in your grade.

This is all becoming so confusing. With all the times you’ve watched Grease before — you know that with everything that’s happening, it doesn’t add up to how the actual movie goes, and that has you wondering. Before you know it, you’ve mindlessly reached the end of the yearbook and are on the pages where students would normally sign their autographs; but this one doesn’t have any. Instead, it’s has only one message scribbled across the whole page in very unique writing.

“An alternate universe is what you wished for, so an alternate universe is what you’ll get. But make sure the story ends the way it’s supposed to, or else it’ll be something that you soon regret. – A friend.”

You stare at the page blankly and silently read the message over and over again, until you soak it all in. Was this some kind of sick joke? When the hell did you wish for something like this to happen? There’s just something about the message that makes you think it was specifically written for you to read, and that thought alone makes you anxious.

Your mind starts thinking back to when you and Harry were cuddled up on the couch watching this movie and you said that being in this movie world would be unreal before technically wishing to be in it. Is that why you’re here now? But why? How? Clearly, this isn’t a dream, this is really happening; but how are you supposed to get back home? All of these thoughts are racing through your mind, but before you know it; the bell rings again to indicate that class is over and you are unable to dig much deeper into the thought of it.

Apparently, the majority of your morning classes are with Marty, but there’s also one you share with Jan, a couple of the T-Birds, but none with Harry. It seems like time is flashing by and you can’t keep track of it. Those classes however, come and go in a whirlwind and soon enough… it’s time for lunch.

You and Jan take a seat in the outdoor cafeteria as you wait for Marty and Rizzo, who are still waiting in line for their food. Jan immediately starts digging into her spaghetti, whereas you just push the noodles around your plate instead of eating any of it. After taking in all that has happened, food is the last thing you’re thinking about at the moment and you remain silent until two familiar voices start singing from a few feet away. You look over to see Rizzo and Marty approaching the table, shimmying as they both finish the little song they’re singing and take a seat next to you and Jan.

Without missing a beat, Jan looks at the two and is the first to say anything. “Hey, did you guys get a look at Zuko this morning? Looking pretty good this year, huh Riz?”

The way she moves the sunglasses that cover her face up and down suggestively makes you recognize the exact scene from the movie that you’re now in, and you know exactly what’s to come after.

“That’s ancient history,” Rizzo states before glancing at you. “That was before him, and Y/N were an item.”

“Well, history can repeat itself,” Marty pipes in and nudges you with her elbow. “Besides, Y/N wants nothing to do with Danny anymore, she’s already moved on.”

“With who?” A voice gasps and your gaze snaps up to that of a girl with dyed ginger hair, and a blonde-haired girl trailing right after her; who you instantly recognize as Frenchy and Sandy.

“Harry,” Marty states and all the girl’s ooh.

“Well that was fast,” French responds and motions for Sandy to sit down.

“It really wasn’t,” you grumble to yourself while thinking of how long you and Harry have been together in real life, which luckily no one hears.

Frenchy starts introducing the four of you to Sandy and going off about how she had just moved here from Australia, just like she does in the movie. You watch the scene unfold in front of you and are too shook to say anything as they all continue on their conversation word for word, all while you’re here living it with them. Everything down to Rizzo sassing Marty about her glasses, and Patty Simcox coming up to excitedly explain how she’s been nominated vice president is the same and you just can’t help but stare. 

Patty invites herself to sit down next to Sandy and lets out a scream as she sits down on an apple left there by Jan, while the four other Pink Ladies huddle together and motion for you to join as Frenchy asks if you all think Sandy has what it takes to be a Pink Lady.

The entire scene has you wondering where in the hell Harry could be in all of this, but if your memory is correct – which it is; he has to be on the bleachers with the T-Birds eating lunch and… oh god, they’re going to break out in song any minute.

As if on cue, Frenchy speaks up again to ask Sandy what she did this past summer.

“Oh, I spent it on the beach, I met a boy there,” the blonde responds, and you press your fingers to your temples as it feels like your mind is about to explode.

“It’s happening,” you whisper as Rizzo makes a comment about Sandy being ridiculous for being so strung up on a guy she met on the beach, and Sandy dismissing her while stating how romantic it was. A distinctive guitar riff starts playing from God knows where and right after, Sandy starts singing her part of one of your favourite songs from this damn movie; Summer Nights.

In some type of crazy unnatural way, you can hear Danny’s voice in the distance as he sings his part of the song and you slowly stand from the table and back away as all the girls in the cafeteria join with Sandy for the musical number… 

This is it. You’ve officially gone crazy and this dream world has become a nightmare. You watch in complete awe as the whole girl’s part of Summer Nights plays out in front of you, and only one thought plagues your mind; you need to find Harry and get the hell out of here now.

Without a second thought, you take off in a sprint away from the commotion just as Marty asks Sandy if this guy – who you know to be Danny, has a car before continuing on with the song. You shake your head as you struggle to run in the long pencil skirt you’re wearing and earn dirty looks from the people you rush by. It doesn’t take long for you to become confused as to why these people are so taken back by you running past them, but unfazed by the random song that just broke out and can seemingly be heard from wherever you are in this place? Bullshit, absolute bullshit.

You’re not really sure where you’re going seeing as you don’t know the layout of the school, but get a pretty good feeling that you’re going the right way as the boy’s voices grow louder, and the girls become a little quieter. A moment later, you turn around a corner and reach a part of the school that overlooks the track field, and sure enough, in the distance is Harry standing on the bleachers with all of the guys looking shocked and unsure of what to do.

With a quick breath, you try to make it down the stairs towards the field as fast as possible without falling, so you can get across the field to your boyfriend and try to figure something out. You watch as all the boys – minus Harry, move across the bleachers in a perfect sequence of one another, and think of how normally you’d appreciate this part of the movie; but right now, you’ve got more important things to worry about.

Some boys who are running on the track look at you oddly as you crash through the gate at the bottom of the steps and mumble a quiet ‘sorry’ as you weave through them. Someone… that you think to be Coach Calhoun yells at you in the distance to get off the track, but you ignore them as you get closer to the bleachers just as Rizzo’s voice sounds in the distance saying how the guy they’re singing about sounds like a drag, and the boys break out into the shoo-bop-bop part of the song while they start shuffling across the bleachers in unison.

You finally reach the bottom of the bleachers and think you’re close enough to get Harry’s attention now. Although you have to lean against the fencepost to catch your breath for a moment, you’re quick in calling out to your boyfriend so he can realize he’s not alone in all this craziness. “H! Harry, over here!”

His green eyes snap to yours instantly, and he wastes no time in rushing over to where you’re standing. A small sigh relief leaves your mouth as he reaches you and immediately pulls you into his chest for a tight hug, smiling as you melt into his touch while he starts muttering some words. “Fuck, I didn’t even know where to look for you in this place. All of them would look at me as if I was crazy for wondering where you were… m’just- I don’t know what to do in all of this Y/N, this is a lot to take in.”

“I know, but we’re going to figure this out together,” you tell him reassuringly as you move away slightly and grab ahold of his hands. You look over his shoulder as everyone on the bleachers keep dancing away, and start pulling him away from them. “Come with me.”

You lead him around the side of the bleachers and move underneath them so you two can talk in private without getting noticed by any of the T-Birds. Once you’re both out of sight, you turn around to face him just as he’s pushing a hand over his slicked curls. “Y/N, I feel crazy for even thinking about it, let alone  saying it out loud but this movie… it’s the same, but different. Like there’s something completely off about it all, and I’m not talking about the part of how we both magically appeared here. It’s just not adding up and God, what the hell is all this?”

“I’m not sure, ok?!” You unintentionally yell at him; regretting your words as you feel the tears prick your eyes almost immediately, and start feeling bad for taking your frustrations out on the last person who deserves it. With a sigh of defeat, once you see the hurt expression that flashes across his features, you start looking anywhere but his eyes before speaking up again. “I-I’m sorry H, I just- I  don’t know… But I’m more than positive that all of this is happening because of me – it’s all my fault.”

“Hey, hey, hey, Y/N- love, there’s no possible way this is your fault,” he tells you soothingly, but a choked sob still manages to escape your mouth. He watches as the tears begin streaming down your face before stepping towards you and wasting no time in lacing his hands with yours so he can gently pull you against his chest again. You instantly melt into his touch as he begins rubbing soft circles on the small of your back and can feel you yourself starting to calm down. “It’s insane that we ended up here yes, but it’s just the movie, right? Maybe all we have to do is make it to the end before being sent back to our real lives.”

“I don’t think it’s going to be that easy H,” you tell him as you move away from his embrace. 

“And why is that?”

“Well, like you said, the movie itself is the same… but it’s also different,” you begin to explain while he looks at you curiously. “We changed it by showing up here.”

“We couldn’t have changed it too much bub,” he states with a slight smirk. “Everything that has happened so far goes perfectly along with the movie, right down to the random breaking out in song during unnecessary times.”“Not everything is the same though Harry, and I think that’s our key in getting out of here.”

He looks at you skeptically before letting out a breath and running a hand over his grease slicked hair. “Alright, you’ve officially lost me.”

“When I was in class with Marty earlier, I found a note,” you explain, and he nods as if silently telling you to continue. “It was in the back of a yearbook and it basically said if the movie doesn’t end the way it’s supposed to, we’re gonna regret it.”

“Ok, but what does that mean love?” He asks with a slightly aggravated tone. “Like I said, the movie has been pretty on track so far… It mustn’t be too difficult to make it stay that way.”

“But that’s the thing H, it may not to stay on track and that’s what we have to worry about. We’ve altered everything just by being here, who are we to say more won’t change the longer we’re here? There might be setbacks we’ll have to face because of it.”

“What kind of setbacks?”

“Well…” You trail off slightly as you think back to what Marty said about you and Danny, as well as all those pictures to prove it. “Apparently I’m the ex-girlfriend of one of the main characters who broke his heart before summer, and now everyone is expecting us to get back together; including him.”

He doesn’t say anything as he stares back at you with complete and utter confusion until a small smile dances across his lips and he lets out a sarcastic laugh. “That’s funny.”

“It’s not meant to be a joke, Harry, I’m serious.”

“How can you be serious when none of this is real, Y/N?” He snaps, and you find yourself flinching at his tone. You stare at him with wide eyes and see how he already feels bad. “Wait, I didn’t mean to snap I-.”

“If none of this is real, then why are we still here, Harry?” You ask through gritted teeth. “Why aren’t we at home where we should be hmm? This isn’t how dreams work, this is actually happening, and I’m going to figure out how to get us out of here whether you help me or not.”

“Babe, you know I’m going to help you regardless. We’re in this together,” he reasons with you and reaches out to grab your hand. “I just- m’not a fan of hearing there’s this other guy that’s gonna try to take you away from me… Even if he isn’t real, it all still rubs me the wrong way.”

“There is nothing for you to worry about H, I’m all yours. Have been for a really long time now and even a young seventies sexy has hell John Travolta acting as one of my favourite characters in one of my favourite movies can change that, ok?”

“Ok,” he replies with a soft smile before leaning down to catch your lips in a sweet kiss. You melt into the feeling of his lips attached to yours, and hum in satisfaction. That’s always something you’ve loved Harry for being able to do. It doesn’t matter how crazy or stressful the situation is, he always knows what to do or say so that the two of you can keep a level head and not take it out on each other. After a moment he pulls away and smirks down at you before mumbling something else. “Just had to throw in young John Travolta being sexy didn’t yeh?”

“Well of course,” you tell him with a smirk before standing on your tip toes so you can peck his lips again. “But that’s beside the point because I haven’t gotten the chance to tell you how good you look in that leather jacket yet.”

Your boyfriend smirks and goes to respond, but before he can say anything else, someone clears their throat from nearby and both of you snap your attention towards them. You were both so caught up talking with each other that you didn’t realize the song had ended, and your bickering was more than likely to be heard; which just with your luck, has now attracted the attention of all the T-Birds as they have now made their way behind the bleachers to see what the commotion was all about. Harry gives you a sideways glance before straightening out his posture a little bit and speaking up with a nod. “Boys.”

“So, it is true,” Danny speaks first, causing you to cringe slightly as you can sense a bit of hostility in his tone. “The two of you really are a thing.”

“Geez Styles, you sure wasted no time in swooping in on that one,” Kenickie mutters as he puffs on a cigarette and leans his elbow onto Danny’s shoulder. “Thought you and Danny were going to work on things Y/N?”

You can’t help the sarcastic laugh that leaves your mouth at his comments and have to roll your eyes as all of them, except Harry, stares at you with rather dirty looks. “Oh, come on, you can’t seriously think I’m a bad guy in this situation. Danny you literally just sang a whole song about a different girl you wanted to bone all summer.”

“Bone?” Doody asks confused, and you mentally smack yourself because there’s no way these guys would know what that means.

“Wait, that wasn’t about Y/N?” Sonny chimes in.

“Well… no,” Danny responds sheepishly, and all you can think is – you fuckboy. “It was a girl I met on the beach, but it’s not like I’ll ever see her again.”

“Wouldn’t be so sure about that lad,” Harry mumbles from beside you, and you send him a warning glare as all of them look at you confusedly.

“What Harry is trying to say,” you start with a forced smile. “Is that anything could happen… even the craziest of things that you’d never expect in a million years to happen, like getting sucked into a movie; but you know, that’s life.”

“What?” All five boys ask in unison, and you grit your teeth for letting yourself rant about your current predicament like that.

“Nothing. But anyways, Danny what I’m trying to say is I moved on, and you should most definitely keep your options open and allow yourself to do so as well, maybe your dream girl is right around the corner.”

“Ooh well played,” Harry whispers loud enough for only you to hear.

“Doubtful,” Danny grumbles. “Doesn’t matter anyways, let’s go guys.”

All the boys start walking away and wave for Harry to join them. He looks at it hesitantly, but you just nod as a way to tell him you’ll be fine on your own. “Go with them and just make sure everything stays the way it’s supposed to, I’ll make sure nothing more changes with the girls either and we’ll be out of here before we know it… hopefully.”

“Ok,” he agrees softly and places a kiss to your temple before stepping away. He makes it a few steps before glancing over his shoulder and winking at you. “You look hot in fifties clothes by the way.”

“Get out of here,” you tell him with a broad smile before letting out a huff and making way back towards the school.

If there’s one thing you’ve managed to pick up on by being in this movie, it’s that time really doesn’t matter. Things that would normally consume a good amount of time in your reality passes by in a matter of seconds here, and it’s quite dizzying. That being said, after meeting up with all the girls after leaving Harry and the boys; the rest of the day flew right by.

It’s now the evening and you’re sat on the back of Rizzo’s car with her, Frenchy, Jan and Marty as you all watch Sandy cheer in the school’s pep rally. After spending the day with all of them, you’ve gotten to know the girls pretty well and find that it’s actually kind of fun experiencing the whole movie world with them – but you also know that this can’t last forever and yearn to be home even more with each passing minute.

You’re fully aware of the plans Rizzo has to take Sandy to where Danny is with Harry and all the other boys as a surprise, and you just can’t help but sit back and watch in awe as every little thing happens the exact same way; just with you part of it. Once Sandy joins the five of you,  you all make way to where the T-Birds are. You think of exactly how the next few minutes are about to play out and are less than impressed by how Danny is a complete asshole to Sandy after realizing they are in the same place again, just like he is in the movie.

You watch with pursed lips behind the girls slightly as it all unfolds but snap out of your daze once Harry steps beside you and nudges your shoulder. “You alright?”

“Yeah,” you tell him just as Sandy storms away upset after being treated like trash by Danny and the boys start praising him for being a jerk. You look at Rizzo – who just smirks to herself for planning all of this, and you know it’s just part of the movie, but man does it sucks seeing someone get treated like that. So, you feel like you need to speak up about it. “Actually no, I’m not. Hey Danny?”

“Yeah,” he responds arrogantly and turns around to face you.

“You’re a real dick, you know that, right?” You snap on him, and everyone looks at you in surprise. Your gaze moves to all the boys standing behind him, and you start going off on them too. “You guys as well for feeding him on like that. Oh, and you too Riz, it’s pretty pathetic that you go out of your way to do something so mean to a person. Geez, grow up – you’re all high school seniors for fuck sake.”

They all stare at you blankly as you let out a huff and grab hold of Harry’s hand so you can storm away with him in tow. You make it a couple of feet before he lets go to rush in front of you; causing you to almost full-on crash into his chest because of how unfocused you were on him. “Woah, hey, that was… that was really brave of you to stand up to them like that Y/N. M’really glad to see you’re still the firecracker I fell in love with, even here.”

“Yeah, sorry for your loss.” You smirk as he wraps a hand around your waist and pulls you closer to him.

“What do you say we get out of here, hmm? Clear our minds up a little bit.”

“How do we plan on doing that?”

“Turns out I have an old cool car in this world too,” he tells you with a wink. You look up at him with a soft smile before nodding in agreement and allowing him to lead you towards a nice-looking black car waiting at the back of the lot. Some voices sound to your right and you can see Frenchy consoling Sandy a couple of feet away, smiling to yourself again when she tells Sandy she could use a girl’s night.

“You’re lucky, I love you. I’m missing out on seeing Look at Me, I’m Sandra Dee and Hopelessly Devoted To You in person now because of you.”

“But I’m hopelessly devoted to you my love; and would much rather spend my night alone with you, isn’t that any consolation?”

“Yeah ok smartass,” you murmur jokingly and pull him in for a kiss, before climbing into his car and driving off. You and Harry spend the majority of the night sitting in the diner drinking milkshakes and just talking – mainly about how much you’re both missing your lives at home. It was nice spending time just the two of you, but neither of you knew exactly where to go afterwards seeing as you don’t actually live in this world; so you both settle on sleeping in Harry’s car on the oddly comfortable backseat. You start the night off cuddling but that soon escalates, and before you know it, you’re waking up to the sun beaming inside of the car. The rays dance over the small blanket that covers both of yours tangled legs, up to where Harry’s T-Bird jacket lays to keep from showing off too much of your exposed upper body and chest; causing you to groan to yourself slightly. 

“Another quick round before school?” Harry asks suggestively from beside you with his deep sleep-filled voice. You scoff in response but with the way he starts peppering your neck with kisses – you’re not long in succumbing to his advances.

“As long as we find a place to shower afterward.”

About an hour and a half later, you and Harry walk out of gym locker room showers in at school while trying to act as normal and casual as can be without drawing too much to yourselves; before setting out the rest of the entire crew. You brush out some of the wrinkles of the new top and skirt you wear with your Pink Ladies jacket that you conveniently found in Harry’s trunk, just as everyone in your group seemingly comes bursting through the doors at once before whisking you and Harry away from one another.

Later in the day, you and Frenchy are walking to class together just as some familiar voices sound from down a hallway, and you pause to listen to them. Frenchy stops a few feet ahead of you after realizing you’re no longer beside her, and slowly shuffles back while looking at you curiously. “You ok there, Y/N?”

“Yeah I’m fine,” you tell her with a smile as you look between her and the hallway the voices continue coming from. “Hey French, what’s down there?”

“Oh, that’s the auto-shop. The boys are probably there now.”

“No way,” you exclaim as you know that the boys are about to start singing Greased Lightnin’, and you want nothing more to see Harry take part in that. Without a second thought, you grab hold of Frenchy’s hand and start dragging her towards the source of the noise.

“Where are we going?” She asks between some chuckles as you continue pulling her.

“Oh, you’ll see.”

The two of you reach the end of the hallway where you push open a door and walk to a railing that overlooks the whole auto-shop. Frenchy looks down at the boys and is about to say something, but you shush her just as the boys break out in song again.

You’re still unsure of where the hell the music comes from but brush it off as you and Frenchy watch in pure amusement while the guys dance around singing about what they’re going to do to Kenickie’s car; including Harry. Small laughs leave your mouth as you watch Harry dance alongside Putzie, Sonny and Doody to the entirety of the song; showing off the dance moves he knows just by how much you’ve made him watch Grease. Frenchy seems to be enjoying herself too as they finish up the song and you quickly start pulling her out of the shop before any of them realize that the two of you were there. 

The next few days er-weeks in movie time are spent just letting the film play itself out. Although you’re starting to get tired of sleeping in the back of Harry’s car every night and using the school showers to clean yourselves off, you’ve slowly started adapting to this world and what it entails. You learned that every day without fail, a new outfit just magically appears in Harry’s trunk for you each to wear; and you’ve gotten to the point where you’ve stopped questioning everything and are now just letting it happen because you will probably go mad while thinking of how something like that is remotely possible.

You and Harry have agreed to just go with the flow of the movie and only stepping in to make sure things stay on track if need be. You’re both just sitting back and relaxing, watching everything unfold and being quite entertained by it all; especially after witnessing Danny’s attempts at picking up on a sport in order to win Sandy over again and get her to go to the school dance with him. You’ve both even become friends with all of the characters as well. Harry tells you about what he did that day with the guys each night, while you tell him how you’re really getting along with the girls and feel as if you’re able to confide in them; especially Frenchy.

Soon enough, it’s the night of said school dance; one of the best parts of the movie, and one of the most dramatic. Harry is pretty adamant on not dancing whatsoever, but you egg him on about it until he finally agrees to the two of you slow dancing together to the version of Those Magic Changes the band plays and taking part in the dance line to Tears On My Pillow alongside all of your friends.  

As the song comes to an end, Principal McGee and Coach Calhoun make their way to the stage to discuss the expectations of the dance and how it’ll all be filmed on national television. Principal McGee explains how she will not be judging the dance competition that’s about to happen, but rather the infamous celebrity in the world of Grease; Vince Fontaine. Everyone erupts in excited cheers as they know they’re about to see this huge celebrity, and you casually glance up at Harry with a smile before elbowing him gently until he looks down at you. “Vince is the movie equivalent to you in real life.”

“Shut up.” He rolls his eyes at your comment, but you notice the arrogant smirk dancing across his lips.

Once the rules of the dance competition are explained and the television cameras start rolling in order to film it all, you drag Harry to the dance floor where he has no other choice but to dance along to Elvis’ Hound Dog with you. Despite his complaining, Harry is quick on matching the steps of the people around you and seems to actually be having fun.

You glance to your right to see Frenchy and Doody laughing while dancing together, and the same coming from Jan and Putzie to your left. Marty is to the side, ignoring Sonny, while Danny and Sandy dance their way next to you; sending wide smiles as they do so. Vince Fontaine goes on the stage and starts talking again before the band starts playing Born to Hand Jive, and you and Harry decide to sit this one out.

The two of you stand on the sidelines watching as your friends dance their hearts out to this particular song and can’t help but laugh a little with how offended some of them get by being eliminated from the competition. Harry smirks at you while you find yourself smiling and dancing to the music, however, a slight movement from the corner of your eye catches your attention and you quickly glance over your shoulder to see what it was. Standing behind the crowd observing everyone while dressed up like a janitor much to your surprise, is the old lady who was selling the chocolate covered strawberries outside the grocery store on Valentine’s Day.

“Who are you looking at?” Harry asks while turning to see what it is that’s grabbed your attention.

“That lady,” you tell him and shake your head disbelievingly. “The janitor, she’s the one who sold me those strawberries back home.”

“The one that said all those weird things about Valentine’s Day?” He questions and you nod frantically. As if being able to hear your conversation, the lady’s eyes widen once she sees you and Harry both staring at her before spinning around on one heel and disappearing down the corridor.

“C’mon let’s follow her,” you say before taking off after her; Harry right with you as you go. The two of you enter the hallway to see her shuffling away as fast as she can – watching as she jumps slightly when you call out to her. “Hey, wait!”

She slowly comes to a stop before turning around to face you, smiling as she does so. “Hello, dear.”

“You… all of this is happening because of you, isn’t it?” You question and cautiously step towards her. “It all makes sense now. The strawberries, the whole Valentine’s Day spiel, the being sucked into a freaking movie for fuck sake… it’s all because of you.”

She lets out a breath before nodding her head in agreement. “You caught on a lot sooner than I anticipated.”

“What- how can you even say that?” You snap and feel Harry places his hand on your back as a source of comfort. “You-you just stepped in and messed with my life. I didn’t ask for this, I don’t understand why-.”

“Do the two of you love each other?” She cuts you off, and you squint your eyes at her.

“What?”

“Do the two of you love each other?” She repeats and steps towards the two of you.

“Well yeah, of course, we do,” Harry speaks up. “I love Y/N more than she’ll ever know.”

“Good. And what about you, dear, do you love him?”

“More than anything,” you state as a smile dances across the lady’s mouth. “But why does that matter?”

“The two of you were just put through a major test that many people would be at each other’s throats about by now,” she explains. “The concept of being sucked into a fictional universe is so obscure and unrealistic that many would freak out at even the thought, but not you two. The both of you worked together to make the most out of hand you were dealt, adapting to something so surreal to you, but not letting it effect those who don’t know any different from what rights in front of them.”

She’s talking about your friends, and your heart drops at the thought of it. The T-Birds and Pink Ladies have been completely oblivious to any of this because this has become their reality, a reality that you and Harry are very much a part of now. You shake your head at the thought before looking back at the lady and letting out a chopped breath. “But why, why us?”

“I thought you could use some Valentine’s Day magic,” she responds before turning around and beginning to make way down the hallway again. You watch her make it a few steps before stepping forward yourself and speaking again.

“But how do we get home?”

“Make it to the end of the movie,” she states with a shrug. “Get the ending back on track.”

“It’s already on track,” Harry explains. “Nothing has happened that could possibly change the movies ending now.”

“I wouldn’t be so sure,” she replies before tilting her chin upwards to motion behind the two of you, before disappearing around a corner.

You and Harry glance at each other confused beyond belief of what to do next, but before you can even think up a plan; a soft familiar voice speaks up from behind you. “Guys?”

Your heart plummets into the pit of your stomach as you and Harry slowly turn around to face your friends staring back at you with hurt expressions.

“What do you mean home?” Doody asks first.

“You guys lied to us?” Jan adds in as well, and you feel your heart sinking even more. “Who are you two?”

“Jan we’re still us,” you desperately try to explain as you feel the tears pooling in your eyes. “We’re just not… we’re not the Harry and Y/N you think we are. We don’t belong here.”

“And where exactly is it that you belong then?” Sonny speaks up.

“Far from here,” Harry starts. “You would never believe us if we told you.”

“Try us,” Putzie challenges.

“W-we’re from a different universe,” you explain and feel even crazier as you do so. “This whole world we’re in isn’t our own. Harry and I live in a reality where this is a movie to all of us who live there.”

“So, you’re saying we don’t exist in your world?” Marty asks, still looking confused as ever.

“The actors that play you do, but this,” Harry says and gestures to your surroundings. “This is all part of the movie world.”

The six of your friends that stand in front of you start talking about how ridiculous that all is, and you feel a pressure building on your chest as you watch it all unfold and Sonny finally speaks up again. “Maybe you both should just go back to your little world then seeing as you care so little for ours.”

“That’s not true,” you plead with them and feel the tears streaming down your cheeks now. “You guys have become our friends. This whole thing has been bearable because of all of you, we wouldn’t have been able to figure anything out if it weren’t for you guys letting us in.”

“Well, you can figure the rest out on your own,” Putzie states. “Have a nice trip back to wherever you two are going.”

You watch with a heavy heart as they all send you one last hurt glance before turning around and going back towards the dancefloor; all except Frenchy. A soft sob leaves your mouth as the girl who you’ve become closest with looks back at you with watery eyes. You wipe a tear away before stepping towards her but cringe slightly as she steps back. “French, please let me explain.”

“What is there to explain Y/N?” She asks with a shaky voice. “You lied to us. What did you plan on doing when you reached the end of the movie, huh? Just disappear with no explanation of why? A real friend doesn’t do that if we were actually friends, maybe you would’ve asked us for help.”

“Frenchy, it really isn’t that simple-.”

“Save it Y/N. I hope you guys get back to wherever home is safe. It was nice knowing ya.” And with that, she sends you both a sad smile before disappearing around the corner with everyone else.

You stare at the now empty hallway for a moment before Harry pulls you into his chest and starts rubbing your back while choked sobs leave your mouth. “H, what are we going to do?”

“I don’t know bub, but we’ll figure something out,” he tells you soothingly all while feeling rather shitty about this whole thing as well. “C’mon lets get out of here.”

You and Harry go the next few days/weeks… you’re not sure; without any communication from any of your friends. They all go out of their way ignore the both of you in the hallways, at the drive-in, everywhere and it becomes increasingly difficult to not be able to speak with those who helped you adapt to this world, but there isn’t much you can really do.

The day of the big race at Thunder Road; the race all the boys were fixing up Kenickie’s car for, comes up very fast and you can tell Harry is a little bummed he’s not going to be there to watch his friend win a race with the car he helped fix for it. You watch silently as he pushes around the food on his plate while the two of you are sat in the diner and let out a huff.

You both decided to skip school for the day to clear your minds about everything, and just with watching him quietly sulk to himself; you relate more to when he said comfortable silence is so overrated more than ever. You bite down on your lip as you start feeling sorry for him, before reaching across the table to lace your fingers with his. “H?”

He hums in response but doesn’t make eye contact before some loud, obnoxious voices speak up from a couple of tables away from yours. The two of you glance over at the guys sitting nearby discussing the race at Thunder Road, but these aren’t just any ordinary guys – they’re The Scorpions; the rivals of the T-Birds.

“When they show up, I’m gonna distract them,” the leader of the group tells the other guys. “And then when they’re not looking, I need one of you guys to cut the breaks on Kenickie’s car. Can’t have them winning on our own turf.”

“H, if they do that… Danny won’t win the race,” you whisper to your boyfriend, who gives you a knowing look. “If that happens, Danny could get hurt but-.”

“It also changes how the movies could end,” he finishes for you, and you bite down on your lip again. “Fuck Y/N, we need to warn them. Not only could this be our last chance at getting home, but that’s also our friends out there.”

“I know,” you tell him with a nod before standing up and pulling him with you. “Come on, before it’s too late.”

The two of you rush back to Rydell High, but much to your dismay; everyone has already left to get to Thunder Road. As you and Harry look at each other unsure of what to do next, you see Sandy talking to Rizzo and are surprised when Sandy lights up once she locks eyes with you. “Harry, Y/N, are you two going to Thunder Road by chance? I really need to talk to Danny.”

“Yeah,” you respond and earn an eye roll from Rizzo. “But we don’t know how to get there, Riz do you?”

“Why would I tell you? Haven’t the two of you done enough already? Also, why would you care, this isn’t even your world.”

“Actually Riz, we just overheard The Scorpions plan to cut the breaks on Kenickie’s car; so yeah, you may all hate us – but at least we’re trying to make sure no one is hurt,” you tell her firmly and in all the time you’ve spent in this movie; you see Rizzo speechless.

“Sandy knows how to get there,” she responds, and you nod. “You guys stay safe out there too.”

“Come on we don’t have much time,” Sandy speaks up and starts walking towards the parking lot.

Harry grabs onto your hand to lead you towards the car, but you pause slightly to look back at the leader of The Pink Ladies. “Thanks, Riz, also I know what people are saying about you around the school. Don’t take it too much to heart… you’ll know why soon enough.”

“I forgot about the whole everyone thinking she was pregnant part,” Harry mumbles into your ear as the two of you head after Sandy.

“Yeah,” you tell him softly. “Rizzo means well, as a friend… I don’t want her to beat herself up, you know?”

“I know,” he replies and places a soft peck to your temple before breaking away from you so the three of you can hop into his car and get to Thunder Road.

There’s already a good crowd of people gathered once you get there, and it’s clear that Kenickie and Danny are arguing with the Scorpions in the centre of it all. Away from the commotion, a lone Scorpion is sneaking around the back of Kenickie’s car with a pair of wire cutters in hand and you’ve never seen Harry floor it as hard as he does in that moment. The car skids to a stop once you’re closer to the group and the two of you are quick in climbing out of the vehicle in order to stop the guy. You’ve caught everyone’s attention at this point, but don’t let it faze you as you walk right up to the guy crouching on the ground, still out of sight from everyone else and snatch the wire cutter out of his hands. 

“I’ll take those,” you state with a sarcastic grin as surprised gasps and voices sound from around you.

“That guy was going to cut the breaks,” Doody speaks up, and more chatter rises.

“Yeah, and I would have gotten away with it,” the Scorpion snaps, before standing up and glaring at you.

“Doesn’t matter,” Harry steps in, before looking him up and down. “Now step away from my girl and get out of my face.”

“Wow, these guys really are rubbing off on you huh,” you say to him quietly as the guy marches back over to his group.

“Whatever,” he replies with a laugh. Soon enough, the two of you are surrounded by your entire friend group; minus Sandy and Rizzo and they all stare at you with wide eyes.

“You two just saved Danny’s life,” Marty is the first to say something.

“Boy are we glad you guys decided to show up,” Putzie adds before gripping onto Harry’s hand and pulling him in for a bro hug.

You watch as all the guys huddle around Harry and smile to yourself fondly as they all greet him like an old friend. You’re about to step away and let them have their moment before Jan speaks up.

“Hey, where do you think you’re going?” She asks you with a raised eyebrow.

“Well I-,” you ramble as Marty grabs onto your hand and pulls you towards one of the many cars nearby.

“You’re gonna watch the race with all of us, right?” The brunette questions with a smile.

“Of course,” you respond as Jan and Frenchy join the two of you.

You look at your orange-haired friend before she sends you a broad smile, before giving you a sideways hug. “Glad to have you back, Y/N. The Pink Ladies felt empty without you.”

With a small smile to yourself and a knowing wink from Harry; you feel better than you have recently with everything that’s gone on. You didn’t really think of it all that much before, but you really are going to miss all these people when you have to leave… If you can leave.

Not much else is said as everyone gets into position, and the race starts. The race plays out just as it does in the movie with The Scorpion leader playing dirty, but Danny turning it around and beating him. Everyone rushes to Danny’s parked car to congratulate him for winning once it’s all done, but you and Harry find yourselves standing back from them.

“Looks like we’re going home soon now, huh?” Your boyfriend asks.

“I guess so,” you respond while scrunching up your face. “Kind of bittersweet.”

“I know, but this isn’t our life to be living in anymore.”

“Can you stop being right all the time?” You start dramatically while he just laughs. “It’s annoying.”

“Can’t, sorry,” he tells you with a shrug, and you swat his arm. “Let’s get out of here though, the carnival scene awaits.”

The next day you’re sitting in class with Marty as Principle McGee is giving her announcement over the PA system to the graduating class. It absolutely blows your mind how everything that has happened took place over eight months…. When really, it’s only been about an hour and thirty minutes in real-time. God, if you don’t get out of movie time soon, you swear that you’re going to get a whiplash or something.

After the announcement is over, all classes are dismissed; therefore, you and Marty start making way out to the football field to meet up with everyone else. The two of you reach the bottom of the stairs and part ways almost immediately. You find yourself wandering around for a few minutes alone before you almost run straight into Rizzo and Kenickie.

“So, you’re leaving after this, huh?” Rizzo asks and looks at you with an unreadable expression.

“Uh yeah, I guess so.”

“Well, this place is going to suck without you and Styles here to mess everything up,” Kenickie adds before him, and Rizzo pulls you in for a group hug.

“Are you two trying to make me cry?” You ask as you hug both of them back, letting out a sigh.

“Is it working?” They say in unison.

“Definitely.”

You pull away from the two, and they say their goodbyes before heading off in a different direction. Just as you’re about to start wandering around again, a strong pair of arms snake their way around your waist and pull you against them. There’s no point in guessing who it is because you’d recognize those ring clad fingers anywhere and have no time to comprehend anything before Harry’s spinning you around in his hold and crashing his lips against yours.

“Ready to finish this up and get home love?” He mumbles against your lips after a moment of making out.

“More than ready,” you tell him and start pulling him towards where you know the rest of your friends are.

You reach everyone just as they’re finishing up singing, You’re the One That I Want, feeling a sudden wave of sadness… You’re going to miss the ridiculously random breaking out in songs like this.  

“Oh look, the whole gang’s back together,” Frenchy says as the two of you approach.

“We’re sure gonna you guys when you leave,” Doody chimes in, and everyone falls silent.

“Try not to forget about us when you go,” Jan adds in as well, and everyone mumbles sad ‘yeahs’ in agreement.

“Nah that’ll never happen,” Danny says while sending a wink your way as you nod in agreement.

“How do you know?” Sonny asks, getting in Danny’s face slightly.

“What do you mean, how do I know?” Danny challenges and pushes him backward. You watch as he falls back onto the high striker game all of you are standing beside and the weight reaches the top with an obnoxious ding. With a loud laugh, you place your hands over your eyes just as Danny says the opening line for the very last song of the movie. “Wop ba-ba lu-mop!”

“Wop bam boom!”

Everyone around your group breaks out in dance to the sound of We Go Together, and you can’t help the giant smile that stays plaster on your face. The fun and happiness radiating off of everyone around you is contagious, and the matching dimpled grin that stays on Harry’s face lets you know he feels the same way.

As much as you really don’t want to join in on the dance, you find yourself busting a move to the catchy tune just as you and Harry get dragged away from everyone by Sandy and Danny. The couple doesn’t say anything as they take you away from everyone to an awaiting car; but not just any car, the car Sandy and Danny fly off in at the end of the song.

The couple doesn’t say anything as they take you away from everyone to an awaiting car; but not just any car, the car Sandy and Danny fly off in at the end of the song.

“What’s this?” You ask them and send a sideways glance to Harry.

“Your way back home,” Danny states.

You feel your heart swell as they both pull you and Harry in for a quick hug and have to take a deep breath to keep yourself from crying. Once they pull away, Sandy looks at you and smiles gently. “Thank you for taking care of us all and making sure our story ends the way it’s supposed to.”

“It was my pleasure,” you tell her before getting pulled in for one last hug.

“Ready to go home, Y/N?” Harry asks softly as Sandy and Danny take off towards the others.

“You bet,” you tell him and pull him down for a quick kiss before climbing into the passenger seat of the car.

Harry gets into the driver’s side and revs the engine a little bit, wrapping his arm around your waist to pull you closer to him before inching forward. The crowd of students starts breaking away to create a path for the two of you to drive down, and you continue smiling like an idiot.

You reach the end of the crowd, and the car lifts off the ground, just like it does in the movie with Sandy and Danny. You glance at Harry; who just smiles, before turning around to wave at all of your friends – watching them disappear as you and Harry are consumed be an extremely bright light.

The annoyingly loud ringtone you have set on your phone awakes you from your deep slumber as you slowly blink your eyes open to the sunlight-filled room. The tone goes silent, but you couldn’t care less as you let out a loud groan and stretch out your very stiff body. You remove Harry’s arm from around your waist and slowly sit up on the couch, rubbing at your tired eyes as you glance at the date displayed on your phone; February 15th.

“Oh my god,” you gasp and look down at your still sleeping boyfriend. You start shaking him and chuckle as incoherent sleepy words leave his mouth. “H wake up, we’re home.”

“We’re what?” He asks before finally opening his eyes. Another soft laugh leaves your mouth as he sits right up and looks around your living room. “Holy shit, we are.”

He looks to you, and as soon as your eyes meet, you tackle him back onto the couch with a hug. “We did it!”

You lean down to connect your lips to his and moan when his hands start roaming your body in a new soft and intimate way; different from how he touched you in the movie while being worried about someone seeing the two of you in the back of his car. After a few moments of doing this, you find yourself breaking away from the kiss and chuckling slightly. “As much as you’ve already managed to turn me on, don’t you think this would be much better in our bed? I miss that thing.”

“You read my mind,” he replies with a laugh before gripping onto your ass tightly and sitting up straight so that you’re straddling him. He connects his lips to yours once again in a quick kiss, but it ends as fast as it started. “Weirdest dream ever, huh?”

“Fuck, don’t even call it a dream; it’ll mess with my head too much. That all seemed so real.”

“Oh, I know,” he tells you before glancing over at the few remaining strawberries that are still in the pack from being left out overnight when you two fell asleep on the couch. “Think Jeff will believe me if I told him what happened?”

“Hell no,” you state firmly.

“Ok, but what if we got Mitch or Gemma to eat the rest of those strawberries?”

“Nope,” you tell him as you scramble off of them and make a dive for the fruit before he can. “These are going in the garbage.”

“You’re no fun,” he whines as you walk over to the kitchen and toss out the container.

“Oh, grow up,” you sass as you walk back into the room. Just as you’re about to say another witty remark, you glance at the television screen where it’s paused on a picture of all eight of your friends from the movie. A smile dances its way across your lips as you look to Harry and gesture for him to look at the screen as well.

He stares at it for a second, before shaking his head and turning back to face you. “I actually miss them.”

“Me too,” you agree and send him a wink. “Guess we’ll have to watch it again so we can see them.

“I think the fuck, not Y/N. I don’t need any more Grease in my life for a long time.”

[Where My Twin Watches]: Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood Episode 16

Work continues to drive me crazy, so of course I make my life more complicated by getting online classes set up for the fall. That, and I kinda don’t want to see our babies learn about Hughes. Blissful ignorance, am I right? *sigh* Onwards with Brotherhood.

Do we have captions this time? We do! Awesome, it was so irritating last time not knowing if I was mangling names or not. We’ve got the second intro featuring the Xing contingent, curious how influential it’ll be having a foreign prince bopping along with the Elrics. (Also, I continue to be juvenile and giggle at one of the lyrics in the new song being “shite”. Hee.) We open up with a bird's-eye view of Central, then with Ed yawning at the train station. Al mentions that being spied on for hours is pretty tiring. Right, Ling’s ninja squad don’t trust the Elrics. But where’s the Prince? The Ninjas proceed to freak the heck out, Fu runs around the traintops calling out for the young lord as Lan Fan worries about him collapsing. Is Ling fainting a common thing, then? Ed just shrugs his shoulders at the absence of the freeloader and heads off with Al and Winry. Huh, music’s getting ominous. Oh, there he is, doing a Brooding Anime Rooftop Stare on the station’s clock tower, looking towards the center of the city. [Ling]: “Something about this country doesn’t feel right.” Well, the current speculation (backed by the freaking Fuhrer being a Goth!) is that they’re sacrificing people to make Philosopher’s Stones, so… don’t know much about Xing so can’t say if they’re any better, but it’d be pretty hard for them to be worse. Episode 16 - “Footsteps of a Comrade-in-Arms” In a run-down area of the city, a car stops and the blond-haired smoking guy (Havoc?) of Roy’s crew is checking in with the grey-haired member (I’ll get their names some day, I swear), dropping off food from the colonel. Oh, guess Grey’s been guarding Barry, who cheerfully recognizes “the smokin’ guy”. Not tied up and playing chess? Are they keeping him prisoner to try and get more info or more protecting their only source? Well, I suppose for a serial killer like Barry being kept inside at night and denied any chances to chop someone up would be uncomfortable. Still, Grey’s bored with the assignment, asks how much longer it’ll be. Havoc just says that Roy apologizes for the dangerous assignment, that Grey’s absence it being treated as sick leave… and if he’s seen in public by anyone he’ll get court-martialed. Yikes, ok then. No breaks for poor Grey. Any good news? [Havoc]: “Falman, I found myself a girlfriend!” ...well that’s nice and all for you, buddy, but I think Falman (thank you!) was looking for good news for him. Poor, poor Falman. Hey, it’s Ling! Taking another impromptu nap? A couple of cops are asking if he’s ok, he whispers about food… ah, trying for another free meal? Unfortunately for Ling, the cops less interested in feeding him and more interested in seeing his entry visa. Cue irritated cops dragging a crying Prince away. [Cop 1]: “Outta the way, everyone!” [Cop 2]: “Illegal alien coming through!” The Ninjas continue to freak over the absent master, while Ed says that they should stop by the military offices. Winry… decides to go straight to the Hughes’ house. Oh boy. [Winry]: “I can’t wait to see Miss Gracia and cute little Elicia!” Uuuuuugh. Make it stooooop. The Brothers are off to meet up with Hughes himself, while they think Hughes might have been stymied by Bradley’s orders to stand down they have info on the Homunculi now (and still don’t know the Fuhrer himself is one, gah!). Off to the court-martial office! Quiet somber music as the brothers run through the park. And right by the phone booth that Hughes was murdered in. Bleh this episode is not going easy. In the office, Sheska’s carrying around some books when another lady officer asks for a key to Room #3. Which freaks Sheska out, and she babbles about cleaning up the mess first? What, have you made that your private reading lair or something? Nope, not your lair it seems, but Colonel Mustang’s private napping chamber. Yikes, hope you had an alarm set, and it only wasn’t Sheska waking you that kept you from being late to a freaking Council Meeting. Wait, Council? I don’t think I’ve heard of that group before, I’m just assuming by the tendency for Anime Councils to be Big Deals that it’s the same in the FMA universe. The highest-ranking officers of the military? Sheska worries that Roy’s not getting enough sleep, he just waves her off and goes to the meeting. Staying up late doing research on the conspiracy, I gue- GAH new voice! Sheska freaks and identifies them as Captain Focker, who asks about the open storeroom and what Roy was doing. Uh oh, a watcher sent by Bradley? Double uh oh, in her concern for Roy’s state Sheska is telling Focker about how he seems to be researching the Fifth Laboratory. And the Hughes case. Bleeeeeh, more Hughes feels as Sheska gets sad about her getting her job through Hughes. Captain Focker walks away deep in thought, glasses obscuring his eyes. Uh oh. But then the looks up in surpr- That’s Captain Focker! Oh my Leto, that’s the real Captain Focker! Real Focker’s too busy looking at some piece of paper to notice a shapechange and red electricity as Envy takes on a new disguise. Shapeshifters: A security nightmare.

But it looks like Envy might have made a mistake, as Real!Focker’s now saying good morning to Sheska, who is rightly confused. A simple “Laugh at this clueless character” moment, or a break for the good guys? Roy’s washing up in a bathroom for this Council Meeting, takes a moment to stare mournfully into the mirror- until with a flush of a toilet his angsting is interrupted by The Mighty Armstrong, glinting manfully in his bandages while towering over the stall door. Hah! Armstrong remarks that Roy looks a bit peakish, who asks why Armstrong is bandaged. Oh right, Armstrong was involved in killing all of Greed’s human-chimera crew down South. He mentions that he ran into the Elrics down there, on their visit to their old teacher. But he couldn’t bring himself to tell them about Hughes. Armstrong makes his way out- [Roy]: “The Fifth Laboratory and the Philosopher’s Stone; the Stone’s key ingredients are live humans.” Armstrong comes to a halt. Roy continues about how Hughes died following up on the Elric brothers’ investigation, and how if/when they find out they’ll blame themselves. He says Armstrong not telling them was kind, and Armstrong compliments him on figuring out so much. But warns him that he never knows who might be listening. Riza’s waiting out in the hallway when Ed walks up and says hi, although he’s not as happy when Roy joins them. Oh yeah, Elric didn’t know about Roy’s promotion. Now if he’s hanging out in Central it’ll be the same place as good old Colonel Mustang. The sarcasm in Ed’s “Great” is astounding. As for the Elrics, they’re just doing some information gathering. And might pay Hughes a visit later in the day. Where is he, anyway? Roy… says that Hughes retired. Went out to the country with his family to run the family business. Really, dude? I get that it’s a sore subject, but the “he went out to the farm” excuse only works for so long. They deserve to know what happened. Well, with the false story the boys think that they should tell Winry, they spin around only to run into Lieutenant Ross. She asks about the rush, Ed mentions that they heard about Hughes… and Ross isn’t in on the “tell them the farm story” excuse. Oh boy. Uuuugh, the two conversations sliding right past each other here is painful! And here’s the kicker: [Al]: “He retired to the country and they promoted him?” Ross realises she did a no-no, covers her mouth to keep from saying anything else. And Ed realizes the truth. Mid-episode cards: Captain Focker with an Envy silhouette behind him, and a downcast Gracia Hughes on the second. Notable for both Narrator “Full-Metal Alchemists” being the sad, somber one. Out in the city, Winry’s shopping for apples, presumably to give to the Hughes’ family. And Ed races out of the building after hearing the new. [Lt. Ross]: “Brigadier General Hughes is dead… He was murdered shortly after you were discharged from the hospital, Edward. I’m afraid we still haven’t found the person responsible.” As he runs and cries, Ed blames himself for pulling Hughes into the investigation. Flashes of Happy Hughes and his family, a memory of Hughes seeing them off at the train station and inviting them to drop by again, hosting dinner, first meeting them and inviting them to his home… Al catches up with the suitcase and then stands there silently as Ed slumps against the wall. And now we’re with Winry, who’s arriving at the apartment. The door swings open- [Elicia]: “Daddy?!” Oh no, that’s fine. I didn’t need that heart anyway, go ahead and use it as a footrest show. The Elrics have arrived at the apartment building, when Al asks what they should do Ed tells him to go back, that he’s “the only one who has to take the blame for what happened.” Oh my Leto kid you have enough self-imposed guilt from Mama Elric and Nina, stop taking the weight of the world on your shoulders! Al argues that it’s on both of them, and double all my protests that Ed does not deserve this for his little brother as well. Ed tries to dissuade Al again- [Al]: “We made up our minds; We said we were getting our bodies back, no matter what. But if people are going to die because of that… then I don’t want mine back.”

Freaking A, Al. I cannot overstate how much damn respect I feel for you right now. You are a poor boy, trapped in a cold metal body from a horrible accident. Getting your body back has been your driving purpose, along with healing your brother. But when you discovered that the cost of making a Philosopher’s Stone was human sacrifice, you discarded the method. And when you discover that a friend has died in the process of helping your investigation, you are fully prepared to renounce your goal in order to protect others. I salute your selflessness. Gracia opens the door, and gives the Elrics the same sad smile that she gave Winry, telling the brothers that Winry’s already arrived. The mechanic’s sitting quietly in a chair with Elicia curled in her lap, she looks up with Ed quietly enters. Ed then asks to talk to Gracia and Winry about Maes. The quiet sad theme starts playing as Gracia recaps the Elrics’ message; that Hughes looked into the Philosopher’s Stone, and was killed as a warning against the brothers. Gracia looks down at sleeping Elicia, as Ed bows his head in grief and gasps out “sorry” again and again. [Gracia]: “That would be just like him, dying while trying to help someone else.” The Trio look up in surprise. [Gracia]: “My husband. He always was a busybody and a meddler, and it got him into trouble. A lot. But you know… I don’t think he ever had regrets. Not any… not even in his dying moments, Edward.” So many people to respect in this episode, seriously. Al being prepared to give up on getting his body back, and Gracia insisting that they can’t give up, or else Hughes died in vain. With a little smile, even. Forget about the dead end of the Stone, there still might be another way. [Gracia]: “You boys have to keep moving forward… any way you can.” The door closes as the Trio exit the apartment, Ed turns to look at the others- [Elicia]: “Mommy?... Mommy, please don’t cry.” ...damn you, show. Later in the day now, the sun is setting as the Trio walk through the streets to a sweeping cello melody. The Elrics see Winry to a hotel room, and then go to their own. Right, because they… used to stay at the Hughes’ residence. Winry’s quietly resting on her bed, Al’s sitting in the living room, and Ed’s downstairs in the restaurant too upset to eat. Now he’s knocking on Winry’s door, asking if she’s eaten yet, and she should hurry because the dining room is closing soon. The parallels are strong here: when they were children the Rockbell’s fed the Elrics, and now Ed’s trying to make sure Winry keeps up her strength now. When Winry doesn’t make a move Ed excuses himself to his room, but Winry grabs his automail hand. Aw, aw no. She still has the basket of apples she was planning to take to the Hughes’ family. Seems she was planning to make apple pie. And had hoped that Mr. Hughes would get to try some too. Winry cries as the screen fades to black. WOW OK talk about rough transitions, we’ve got Chimeras in cages. And eff you it’s the Goths, Lust leaning on Gluttony as she talks with still-disguised Envy. Now they know that Roy’s been looking into the matter, and may have found some things out. Lust gripes that they orchestrated Roy’s move to Central to keep a closer eye on him, and it’d be a waste to lose an important sacrifice candidate. Wait… [Envy]: “Haven’t been able to learn anything from your new boyfriend?” Aw hell no, I’d thought that Havoc gushing about having a girlfriend was just a little joke at the beginning of the episode, like a running gag about his relationships or something. You’re telling me Lust is playing Havoc? Run dude, run! Lust goes off to gather more info, calls for Gluttony like a loyal little attack dog. Envy chides Gluttony for leaving some bones scattered around… but then gets an idea. Uh oh, we’ve got string music as Envy suggests making another “play”, giving Roy a bone to chew. What are you up to? We’re at what appears to be a cafeteria now, when someone comes up and taps Lieutenant Ross on the shoulder, introducing himself as Henry Douglas from the Provost Marshal’s office. Flanked by goons, he says that Ross has to come along with them, and demands her gun? Wait, is Ross being arrested? Brosh, where the heck are you, come defend your partner! Whoa whoa what?! They’re accusing Ross for Hughes’ murder?! What the heck, how can you make that claim? What evidence do you have for that absurd claim? Besides… well, besides the shapeshifter accosting Hughes in the phone booth while looking like you… uh oh. Riza is updating Roy on the situation, saying that Ross (man, there are a lot of R-characters involved in this case, huh?) is pleading not-guilty on all charges. The Flame Alchemist just tells Riza to gather all the info on the suspect that she can, secretly. Dramatic string music continues as we see Havoc buying some flowers and then running along to his “hot date”, stubbing out his cigarette as yup, “Solaris” is Lust. Who demurely asks Havoc to sit down and tell her about his day. AAAAAAARGH! Ok then! Was putting off this episode because I knew there would be Feels about Hughes, and damn if it didn’t deliver. But like Gracia said, they can’t let Hughes’ death be in vain, and they can hardly just give up and let the killer go free. Speaking of, framing Ross? As if I didn’t have enough reasons to hate you jerks, Goths! Ugh, this is gonna get complicated, isn’t it?

words: 3.3k 

warnings: flirting, intro, and just fun :))

summary: It was finally summer vacation and you were spending it all summer in California. You and your five best friends had been invited to the Stark STEM Summer Program and couldn’t wait to start; but of course, it got off to a rough start. You met someone and quickly hit it off but when disaster strikes, he disappears. But where to?

a/n: chapter 1! i will do my best to stick to the schedule and this is the start. so excited for you all to read! much love, lena

previous chapter // next chapter

Spring semester was finally over and it was finally your favorite time of the year: summer. Except for this summer, you’d be spending time with your best friend from Columbia University at UCLA in California for the Stark STEM Summer Program. Tony Stark himself selected the students who were accepted to go for the summer and you were one of the lucky 100 selected to go from all around the country.

Never did you imagine that Tony Stark would invite you to spend a summer learning from him but let’s be honest, it was probably Pepper that chose everyone.

You and Valkyrie, who you called Val for short, met as freshman at Columbia as roommates. She was a complete extrovert and party animal while you were the complete opposite; the ‘sit inside, read or watch movies and eat snacks’ kinda gal. But you brought out the best in one another, playing off of each other’s strengths and becoming the complete power duo. You loved your best friend with all your heart and could not be more excited to be going to the summer program with her.

You met other girls from the Columbia campus that you knew of at the airport so you could all fly together. Hope, Wanda, and Okoye were all best friends and we’re some of the sweetest girls around the campus but always knew how to have a good time and make memories.

Waiting in the airport, the five of you talked about the summer and how awful spring semester always is, with finals and essays due but it’s always worth it.

“Now boarding, sections 10-26,” said the young woman at the front desk of your terminal.

Val wrapped her arms around you and you around her, both squealing loudly and grabbing the attention of fellow passengers, but the two of you didn’t care. You were too damn excited to spend the entire summer in California with your best friends and learn so much from Tony Stark.

You grew up hearing about him from 2012 and the historic battle of New York but were more interested in working in engineering and possibly one day, working under the direction of Mr. Stark himself; this was the perfect opportunity to prove yourself to Mr. Stark.

Which meant no distractions.

Just as your boarding pass was scanned, you ran down the hall to board the plane and sat at the window seat of the plane, preparing for the 5-hour flight to California. Val was sitting next to you and Hope was closest to the aisle, with Wanda and Okoye in the middle of the plane. You knew it would be a long flight but the five of you had a chat together, so you’d be busy trying to laugh quietly and sending pictures throughout the whole flight.

You felt a tap on your shoulder, covered by a short-sleeve grey blouse and looked over to see Val pointing at Hope who had fallen asleep on her shoulder and was snoring.

You immediately took a picture and was laughing so hard you were crying, and Val was trying to keep you from waking her up but was unsuccessful. Wanda was videotaping her waking up, with her hair in all sorts of directions and red shot eyes. You were all giggling and then she was too, unable to keep herself from joining in. Before you all knew it, you were in California.

. . . . .

“This hotel is so nice,” you said, getting out of the van from the airport.

You had slept for the last hour on the flight and knew you looked like you’d just slept for 3 days but didn’t have time to check your appearance after getting off the plane. You and the girls raced to the van who almost left without you and Hope and Wanda packed the bags into the back, while everyone else piled into the van. The drive was short and fun, but you were all exhausted and really just wanted to go back to sleep.

“Try not to burn it down,” Okoye said, walking up behind you and Val.

“I set off the fire alarm, I didn’t burn it down!” Val said as you all grabbed your bags out of the van.

Staring up at the hotel, it must’ve been 45 floors tall and probably full of students here for the summer. You and Val were rooming together for the whole summer, knowing there would be many late nights and snacks and so much noise, you were sorry for who would be rooming near you two.

You walked inside to the lobby to see white and grey furniture everywhere and college kids with loads of bags walking around, chatting and standing in line for the elevator. You walked up to the front desk and told the young man your last name and got the keys to your room for the next three months. Val brought the bags and had to stand in line for the elevator which she wasn’t thrilled about but you saw that you were on the fourth floor so you just took the stairs.

You walked down the hall, looking at all the numbers before realizing that you were at the end of the hall in a larger room, with another right across the hall from you.

You were about to use the key to open the door before you heard laughter inside.

Who was in there? you thought to yourself.

You put your ear up next to the door, but couldn’t hear anything else. Just the sound of a fan and some lights buzzing inside. Nervous to know who was in there, you tapped on the door anyway, hoping it was just the cleaning staff.

Knock, knock, knock.

This should be your room, right?

You faintly heard a person walking towards the door, hoping it was someone on the hotel staff preparing the room but instead, you were face to face with a young man seemingly your age, who happened to be shirtless and eating an apple.

He had his hand on the doorknob and was chewing his apple but stopped when he saw you. He seemed to be expecting someone else and it obviously wasn’t supposed to be an overly-tired and hungry college junior.

“You’re not Ned,” he said chewing his apple once again.

“Uhh-I um, I-I’m sorry, um-” You failed to make any understandable words, blushing madly at the young man in front of you who had wet hair that was all over the place, and was only in swim trunks. He was still staring at you, and you weren’t quite understanding why. You must’ve looked ridiculous from your airport attire, and your hair must’ve been pointing in every direction. You started to walk away before you saw a hand shoot out in front of you. He swallowed his apple and then spoke.

“Peter.”

You must’ve been staring too long at him because he waited for you to take his hand and laughed quietly when you seemed to be staring into space.

You looked at his hand and then back at his face, which had a strong jawline and surprising red cheeks, meaning he thought this entire interaction was just as weird as you did.

“Oh, sorry. I’m um, Y/N,” you said while taking his hand and shaking it. You let go of his hand and just stood there, hands behind your back, palms sweaty.

Nice going, idiot.

“Nice to meet you.”

“You too,” you replied quickly.

He leaned up against his door frame and said: “So, why exactly did a beautiful girl like you knock on my door? You here for the Stark Summer Program?”

Before you could even respond or get any more embarrassed, you thought to yourself, This could not get any worse.

“Y/N!” you heard Valkyrie say.

Nevermind. It just did.

She ran up next to you and looked at Peter and then at you, proceeding to save your ass by dragging you across the hall to your room, with Peter waving at you slowly. He smirked and trying not to laugh at the sight of Val dragging you away. She walked in and you shut the door, waving back at Peter who closed his door too. You turned around and slid down the door to your knees and put your hands on your cheeks, which you knew were still pink and warm from looking at and meeting your very attractive neighbor.

“Who was that?”

“I have no idea.”

“Well he seemed to be interested in you,” Val said, dropping the bags and sitting down right next to you, nudging your shoulder.

You looked at her with pink cheeks and shoved her back, “No he didn’t! Not like this. I look like I crawled out of a dumpster.” You still had your big grey shirt on, with black Nike exercise shorts on and sandals, now realizing that was a mistake since your feet hurt from all the walking. You originally put your hair in a bun but it was completely messed up while you slept but you never had time to fix it and your sunglasses that were pushed up onto your head were almost impossible to remove from your tangled hair.

“You look beautiful, idiot. Now stop moping so you can help me unpack!” She jumped up and grabbed your hand to pull you up with her. “We need to unpack and get ready.”

You watched your best friend take her bags to her bed and jump on top. You laughed, knowing it was would be just like back in New York, just a different city and a different room. You grabbed Val’s phone and plugged it into a speaker you brought, blasting Billie Eilish’s ‘bad guy’ and singing together while unpacking.

Little did you know, Peter and his best friend/roommate for the summer Ned were walking down the hall and heard the two of you singing, making him smirk. You had already made a strange but hilarious first impression on the college man, hoping he would run into you at some point.

Literally.

. . . . .

“IT’S PARTY TIME LADIES!” Hope shouted, joined by Wanda and Okoye’s screams of joy. Tonight was the kick-off party of the summer at Barney’s Beanery, closed off for the night for just students here for the program. It was a formal party but you knew it would get unhinged at some point; it is a college party after all.

All five of you were stuffed into the bathroom in your and Val’s room, putting on light makeup and doing each other’s hair. It looked like something out of a chick flick, but none of you cared. Singing along to old Taylor Swift songs now, Val zipped up the back of your dress and she went to put on her outfit. The five of you looked all looked amazing, and not one person in that room would be able to take your eyes off you ladies.

Especially one person.

Across the hall, Peter and Ned both had finished getting ready for the party, dressed in suits but not too fancy to where they couldn’t have a good time.

You stepped out of the room to head downstairs first, at the same time that Peter was locking the door to his room. You turned around and realized it was Peter from earlier that day.

“Uh-”

“Hi,” Peter said, a slight tint coming to his cheeks as he saw you in your outfit.

“Hey, sorry about earlier. I don’t normally look like that.”

“Do you usually look this good?”

You had your hands at your sides but they were now clammy, trying not to embarrass yourself again as you did earlier. He was a smooth talker but you could tell he was intimidated by you. He tried not to show it, but he didn’t seem to be as good as hiding his emotions.

“I’d like to think somewhere in between.”

He chuckled and put his hands in his pockets, quickly watching Ned look at him with a dorky grin on his face and continued walking down the hall.

“I don’t think I ever caught your name from earlier?”

“Y/N.”

“Peter, Peter Parker.”

“Nice to meet you… again.”

You both laughed, right when your friends walked out to see you talking with the young man, still taller than you in the heels you were wearing. They weren’t tall heels anyway because you wanted to try and be comfortable that night.

“I guess I might see you tonight. Nice seeing you again, Y/N,” said Peter, running off down the hall to join Ned in the elevator.

You suddenly felt two hands on your shoulders that whipped you around to face your friends, knowing you’d be bombarded with questions.

“Who was that?”

“Nice to meet you again?”

“He’s hot.”

“What the hell just happened?”

You sighed and removed the hands from your shoulders, knowing you would never hear the end of it if you didn’t spill every single detail.

“I will explain everything in the car. Can we go now?”

. . . . .

“IT IS SO LOUD IN HERE!”

“WHAT?”

“NEVERMIND!” you yelled at Val.

“WHAT?” with Val yelled back at you.

This is gonna be a long night. The entire room was filled with voices, lights, and music so loud you could barely hear yourself talk. You had just arrived, knowing people were looking at you and your friends. It may have been a camp for smart college kids, but that didn’t mean you couldn’t dress up every now and then. Your black dress gave you just enough room to breathe and you and the girls were all dancing until somehow you ended up in the middle of a group of people and spilled your drink right on someone’s shirt.

“Oh my gosh, I am so so sorry,” you said, looking at the mess you made and not realizing who you spilled your alcohol on.

“We have got to stop meeting in strange ways.”

Your eyes shot up to see Peter Parker’s chocolate brown eyes staring into yours, which were filled with regret and embarrassment.

I just cannot win today, can I?

Ned looked over and saw what happened, “I’ll be back, there’s a store around the corner and I’ll get you a shirt.”

“Thanks, bro,” Peter looked at you and stopped him, “Ned, this is Y/N.”

“Nice to meet you,” you said, shaking his hand awkwardly.

“You too.”

As Ned walked off, you turned back to Peter and blushed. You grabbed some napkins and started wiping off his shirt.

“You are not subtle, are you?” he said, talking into your ear so you could hear him.

“I wouldn’t include it on my Tinder bio, no,” you replied, earning a laugh from Peter.

“You don’t have to do that,” he said as he grabbed your hand and threw away the soaked napkins. You tried to pretend you couldn’t feel his stomach through the damp fabric while doing that. Looking around the room, you saw your friends dancing with some guys while Val was sitting talking to a blonde woman, drinking and laughing. They all seemed to be having a great night, while you were acting as you’ve never been in public before.

“Do you want to get out of here? It’s really loud!”

“Sure!”

You walked side by side out of the club and once you got out onto the street, you could see his messy brown hair and navy blue button down, that now smelled like vodka, with black slacks and black shoes. He was almost too attractive for his own good but didn’t act like it except when he was flirting with you, which you didn’t understand because you were a huge dork.

“So, you never answered my question from this morning,” he said.

“Yeah, I seem to be a pro at making conversation today.”

“Are you here for the Stark Program?”

“Yeah, here with friends from New York.”

He looked at you suddenly while you were up against a lamp post, making you curious as to why he made that face. “You’re from New York?”

“Yeah, Washington Heights.”

“Queens, but now I live in Cambridge, Massachusetts.”

“MIT, I’m guessing.”

“Right you are.”

“No way!”

“Small world, I guess.”

You continued to make small talk while waiting for Ned to come back. You learned that he used to live with his Aunt May before starting college and he had known Mr. Stark since he was in high school but had never done his summer program. Once he moved in with Ned as his roommate at MIT, he came back to Queens as much as possible to visit his Aunt May. He also loved pickles, the color red and wants to work for Mr. Stark as well.

“It’s a dream of mine, ever since I was a kid,” you told him. You hadn’t really told anyone that was your plan but it was easy to talk to Peter, confide in him. You were very similar in many ways but also so different.

“Same here, he can be intimidating but he’s like a father to me.”

You were quiet for a second, realizing that the topic of fathers was a sensitive subject but Ned broke the silence, in a very-Ned Leeds way.

“Really? They didn’t have anything else?”

“Oh they did, but as your best friend I must find the best quality and style for you.”

You laughed at the way that Peter glared at Ned while he doubled over laughing, knowing that they must be like this all the time.

Peter must’ve not been subtle either as he unbuttoned his shirt and peeling it off, taking the oversized ‘I LOVE NY’ from Ned who was still laughing and putting his head through the shirt.

You didn’t realize you were staring at him until you saw a hand waving in front of your face, snapping you back to reality.

“You alright?” Peter said.

You hadn’t even noticed that Ned had gone back inside and it was just you two again. It should’ve been impossible at this point to blush any harder but you managed, much to Peter’s delight.

“Yeah I- was that a raindrop?”

You felt the water on your hand and before you knew it, it starts drizzling. You and Peter both look at each other wide-eyed, knowing you don’t have long before you are both soaked.

“DO YOU JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO THE HOTEL?” he shouted at you over the suddenly loud thunder.

“SURE, LET’S GO!”

You quickly took off your heels and Peter grabbed your hand, intertwining your fingers rather quickly, almost feeling stuck to him. You ran together to his car, your hands feeling perfect together. It was the only thing you could think about while running in the rain, splashing the sidewalk with every step.

Reaching his car, he fumbled with his keys as it was now pouring and you were both soaked head to toe. You sat on the passenger side of his car, a very expensive Audi with black seats that were heated once he turned on the car. You were both huffing from running and you looked over at each other, bursting out laughing.

Your stomach hurt from laughing so bad once you could calm down, and Peter had tears rolling down his face from laughing.

He started the car, and you giggled while saying, “That was insane.”

“Sorry for grabbing your hand like that.”

“I don’t mind.”

“Would you do it again?”

“With you, definitely.”

Peter smirked as he drove down the road towards the hotel, only ten minutes away and you remember thinking that you wouldn’t allow yourself any distractions this summer. Now you weren’t so sure. 

. . . . .

You were still laughing in the elevator and down the hall before you got to your rooms.

“Well, I think your shirt is clean now.”

“I think it’s more water than anything.”

“You looked beautiful tonight but I can’t decide whether I like the dry or the soaked version more.”

“Both?” You smiled and put your hands behind your back, missing the feeling of his fingers in between yours.

“Yeah, I think so.” He smiled at you and you reciprocated. 

“Goodnight, Peter.”

“Goodnight, Y/N.”

You searched through your purse but realized quickly that you were missing something very important; tonight was only about to get more awkward. 

“Uh, Peter?”

“Yeah?”

“Do you think I could stay in your room for a couple of hours?”
