Episode 26 - A Hairy Mystery

TW: Discussions of in-universe false allegations of S.A. towards animals and/or children. Discussions of addictions, and what might be actual S.A.

This episode is a doozy, both canonically and due to the analysis I conduct.

From the first seconds of the episode, we can note one very important detail:

The episode's narration is not censored by Kerubim, as is usually the case, but filtered through Joris's very limited understanding of sexuality and other adult things, and metaphors alluding to those.

Which results in this being a very dark episode in every single way possible and kinda batshit insane, when thought about for too much.

This is the same house as the one we'll see in Episode 50, Deadly Charm.

During Episode 50's time, the two of them share this house. This may suggest that the two episodes happen relatively closely, timeline-wise. It would make sense, considering the fact that in both of these episodes, Lou investigates crimes.

This investigation sounds like how long a war that would result in the birth of a very cool huppermage would last.

This episode will be hellish to translate... First of all: all the little text on these images? Just gibberish. Also, it's the same gibberish copypasted in all the newspapers.

However, we have some juicy stuff in the big text blocks: real text, with more context for the ep, besides what we see through Joris's ~imagination~

Big text on the top:

"LITTLE CAT (??? something something)

LITTLE CAT WHO DRANK MILK WAS NICE, FRIENDLY AND WELL-BEHAVED, WHICH DOESN'T/DIDN'T---

THIS BY PUTTING LAXATIVE IN THE BOWL OF HIS SWEET SELF"

Big text on the bottom:

"HE LOOKS LIKE A BEANPOLE(???) -----------UN"

Firstly: the newspaper name says "BOTA" instead of "BONTA"... Not even a spare letter "N" for the starving public?

The text on the left is, for some reason, upside down, and the letter N is in my transcription only because it makes more sense than W. What is says is: "EST U(N)E FIOTTE"

Translation: Someone (a female judging by "une") is (I am about to quote google here) "a homophobic(?) swear word for men(??)."

I'm sure someone in Ankama was very giddy to have snuck this in, but god, I wish I knew what this really means.

Don't worry. There are worse hidden texts in this episode... Like this next one.

I guess that what Kerubim is accused of is. Uh. not... literally eating a cat. It's something... different. Or eating the cat and also doing other things to the cat. hm.

I guess for Ecaflips, doing this to a cat, is not just an animal thing but also uh. a kid thing.

...Idk if I ever wanted to know this much about the World of Twelve. Man.

To pause from the insanity of this episode so far, I want to point out, that, both here, and in the episode 50, which we had established, takes place close to this one, Kerubim and Lou are very close to marriage/consider each other fiancés (in episode 50, she is referred to as his wife, despite them not being married).

So... I am assuming both of them take place before Ecaflip City! We're making some real discoveries here, folks.

This episode was funnier before I knew this was Kerubim's twitter callout arc. Now it's just sad.·😭

Also, in a better circumstance, I would comment on how cute it is that Kerubim says he likes cats (or babies, considering that for ecaflips... yeah. man. this episode is making me say insane things.) that much.

No wonder he's going fucking insane.

The first one is a reused text asset from the first episodes that says "MAISON DE NERUBIM CREPIN". What she is writing seems to be "RMCP"

The second one is, uh. Yeah.

Judging by the paintings, I suppose this episode takes place after Vax's Art (ep10) and Bashi the Shark (ep7).

I know these are just reused assets, but also — it's Ankama's own fault that they gave me this to do theorizing with.

Jesus fucking Christ, here we go. Twenty pages of analysis incoming:

He had a very interesting evening. Getting drunk (as usual), gambling (as usual)...

But having a woman "ride" him, while being very, very drunk, too — is this also, in fact, usual? Hopefully, it was a literal riding, horse-style.

Judging from Lou's phrasing and reaction, as well as this episode's whole thing so far, it was probably not.

Which is... not good at all. Yeah.

We'll never truly know, with Joris's unreliable narration in this episode. But I am sad to report, that I don't think it would be out of character for Kerubim to... have these things happen to him, and be okay with that.

And it's in-character for Lou to view Kerubim's habits of getting drunk and gambling everything away, while having ambiguously-nonconsensual (on his side) relations with women, as punishable evils on his part, good old "shit boyfriend" behaviours.

Instead of, y'know, self-destruction.

...Okay, I think I am ready to present something to you, so here's a refresher for my earlier liveblogs, in the form of the six tenets of theorizing about their final break up we established:

She left sad, and unlike many other times, without any anger for Kerubim.

She left Luis with him to watch over him.

She also left Luis because he couldn’t go with her, but that could mean many things.

She left after Ecaflip City, obviously, and at that time, their relationship seemed the healthiest. (Well, as healthy as it could be.)

Unlike all the other times, Kerubim didn’t go searching for her. It seems this separation was final in a way no other was, and there had to be a reason that he didn’t go and try to make up. An unsolvable issue.

Both Luis and Kerubim blame Kerubim, and the first one uses this to make the second one angry.

I think it's time to make to finally reveal my Divorce Theory:

I think Lou left Kerubim after regaining her memories, and realizing that they're just bad for each other.

She often manipulated him using his insecurities and fears of abandonment, which are the result of his childhood traumas. She hit him, and disregarded, or at times exacerbated, his various mental health issues.

While he has cheated on her many times while being completely sober, without any regard for her personhood and feelings. He's gambled away her memories.

Yes, they loved each other, but they were horrible together.

And I think it's a very sad realization to have about someone you've been in love with for your whole life:

That all you've ever managed to do is hurt each other, and make things worse.

...Now that I'm done with sad divorce theories, let's finish up this episode.

The newspaper that shows miss Kitty behind bars, has all the same text as the newspaper where Kerubim is behind bars, so I won't include it, but this?

This has a plot twist:

"EM ILIE EST U(N)E FIOTTE"

...Emilie, if you're out there: years ago, in Dofus: Aux Trésors de Kerubim, someone called you a bad word.

And I hope it was a joke and not some office drama. I really do hope so.

...My reaction to this whole fucking episode, Keke.

My exact reaction to all of it.

This is the face of a parent who knows that he will have to assess the damage. A second plane has hit the fucking pentagon level damage.

The "will he be asking me what "riding" means now?" "will he be asking me why "you ate a kitten" allegations got me into prison?" level damage.

Actual nightmare.

CHAPTERS ;

one - two - three - four - five can be found by clicking as soon as I link them, probably in the morning.

AUTHORS NOTES;

Wow, it has been a while since I updated this BUT BUT.. I'm doing it now, so ha! This one just kind of came to me, at last, things clicked into place like I wanted. It was so hard to reign this in, it very nearly turned into filth BUT.. i managed to stop it.

I wanna thank everybody who takes the time to read my work. And those who comment/like/reblog/reblog with tags, oh my god, you guys are amazing, you always make me heart sooo happy when I read back over your tags/comments after seeing them. This means so much to me and honestly, I can't thank you enough.

SUMMARY;

-- forbidden fruit is always the sweetest fruit.

you are Tony Starks daughter and Pietro Maximoff has pretty well staked his claim. How will this play out in the end, hm?

PAIRING;

Pietro Maximoff x Stark!Fem reader. Reader is female, has female parts but beyond this, there are no real physical descriptions present.

WARNINGS;

Ugh, fuck me. Pietro. He's the warning. Heavy sexual tension, swearing, me using google translate when he lapses into Sokovian (i provide translations), eventual filth, a potential murder when Tony finds out his daughter's dating an Avenger... and that particular one, at that. More warnings to come, probably.

TAGLIST;

@beardedbarba

@scoobiessnacks

These are the only people present on my MCU taglist. If you'd wanna be part of it, click and add on the link at top of post.

OTHER STUFF;

Let's see here. Tower isn't destroyed, Pietro isn't dead, Tony won't be dying if I make it all the way to that part in the mcuverse, several other things might change or be added and scrapped entirely, I'm not sure yet.

Sleep was not happening for you. You finally accepted this around 2 am when you slipped out of bed and tugged on the Motorhead t-shirt you shed an hour before when you thought that maybe if you slept naked you’d actually sleep because you wouldn’t be quite so hot.

As you steal through the long corridor in your wing and step out into the shared areas, you spot a light on in the gym. You wander over and lean in the open doorway to see Pietro punching the weight bag, focused intently on the task. And all you could think about was earlier, on the couch. The way he kissed you like his life depended on it. The way his hands felt when they roamed your body in a pace foreign to the Sokovian speedster. Like he wanted to learn every curve, every freckle and every scar on you.

You’re in such a trance that you don’t realize you’ve been caught staring until Pietro is there, standing in front of you. Leaned in the opposite side of the open doorway as blue eyes flit over you filled with hunger. You swallow hard and you’ve closed the slim gap between your bodies before you even realize you’ve done it. “Piet?” you mumble, gaze settling on him as you go quiet. Not sure what to say or even do next.

But he knows. He’s perceptive. He can feel the nervous energy rolling off you in waves and he knows exactly why. You want to ask him if the kiss meant everything but you’re afraid. He chuckles quietly, blue eyes dancing as they lock on your lips and he leans into you and down just enough. Just so that rough lips bump your mouth softly as his hands catch on your hip, their warmth burning through your shirt it feels. You shiver at the touch and bite your lip.

“Don’t do that, draga mea. I want to do that.” he’s only half teasing when it slips out. You turn red all over. Pout a little as you blow at your hair. “Tease.” you mumble.

“Am not.”

“But you are, though.” you respond, a hand raising. Resting against a heart that beats so very fast. It could be the superhuman physiology, it could be something else entirely. You’re not sure. Your own heart’s beating a lot faster than usual too but around him, this isn’t new.

Pietro decides to both call your bluff and answer your unspoken question. A hand raises with such quickness it’s like it hadn’t happened at all and it catches in the back of your hair as his mouth crashes against your own and he’s pulling you up his body with his other arm which is definitely him giving a show of strength and yes, that show of strength goes right to your panties and you’re dripping in an instant. Your legs circle his waist and he deepens the kiss, his tongue running along yours, dominating the kiss. You almost forget to breathe a time or two. By the time it breaks you’re whimpering and rubbing against him with your hands dragging through platinum hair and tugging and digging in against a muscular bare shoulder with enough force to leave crescent imprints from your nails behind on pale skin.

He growls and there’s this wild gleam dancing in his eyes when the kiss breaks and you pull apart to breathe. He doesn’t put you down, he carries you down the hallway and you duck your head as everything around you starts to blur together.

When you look up again, you are inside of his private wing in the tower. Standing in the middle of the living space. Pietro lets you climb down but he’s on you again in an instant, your back up against the wall beside the door leading into the large suite of rooms. His hands are all over you and when he bucks himself into you a time or two, you feel how he’s dangerously close to bursting through his sweats and you whine, needy.

Breathless as he looks at you, he licks his lips and leans in real close, his mouth up against the shell of his ear. “Now do you believe me, draga mea? I am not a tease.” as his hand snakes down, settling against your ass to squeeze as he melts his muscular frame against you and takes several long and deep breaths, chuckling. “Couldn’t sleep either, hm?” he questions, pulling away to gaze at you. You shake your head and his hand grasps the column of your neck as his finger rolls over you soft cheek. His forehead settles against yours and very quietly, he admits breathless against your mouth, “It is so hard not to do things my way. Fast.” his fingers dig against your ass, bunching the bottom of the thin shirt up over it slightly so that he feels thin lace below in the process, “when it comes to you, draga mea.”

“What do you want, hm?” you question as you stare into his eyes. Pietro chuckles. And he rattles off a long list of nonsense but then his words die away and he murmurs in a low velvet growl, “You. I want you, draga mea.”

“Fuck.” you whimper it out, your breath coming in shaky gasps. “I want you too, I’m just..” you go quiet. “My father and my own bad luck and I-I’m.. I’m a fucking mess, Piet. A mess.”

“And I don’t care, draga mea.” he mumbles, finger curling beneath your chin to get you looking up at him again. “I don’t care about any of it. You asked me what I wanted. I answered you.”

You bite your lip as it settles in for you.

“I want you too. I really do.”

“And you have me. I am right here. I am more patient than I seem.” he goes quiet, just the slightest hint of red in his face because this is Pietro Maximoff at his most vulnerable. His most honest.

And you know it. You can see it in his eyes.

“So what do we ah.. What do we do?” you drag your hand through your hair as you look up at him. He chuckles quietly, pulling you even closer as he answers calmly, “We do whatever you want, draga mea.”

reading (via gtrans) mxtx’s ending remarks, and while i obviously don’t speak the language, i can’t help but think they sound... well, less like meta/what you’re Supposed to think about the characters, and more like an author chatting about their characters, a bit jokingly.

i’m also wondering if the bit about wgxn being something something moral, ideal characters came from WiFi和汪叽都是非常理想的人格...? because... it’s interesting. 理想人格 does mean, according to baike, “ the moral perfect model advocated by a certain society or class, and is generally considered to be a perfect personality image. It is the highest embodiment of the moral requirements and moral ideals of a certain society”. Howeverst, i can’t help but notice it says 理想的人格. i’m wondering if it’s just a different way of saying the same thing, or something completely different. again, when it comes to chinese, my only source is google translate and my feeble brain, but considering what she talks about next, it might? could be, i’m not sure? ideal/perfect personality. 理想 means “ideals, dreams”, but as an adjective it means “ideal”, like ideal society, ideal girlfriend, perfect day for [event], etc. and what she talks about next is “i like wwx, but if i had to pick a boyfriend, i’d go for lwj”. it gave me some real “rin matsuoka, perfect man, super recommended!” vibes, lol. (does anyone remember free!...?)

the part about lxc kinda makes me laugh, because mxtx begins it with “idk why people thought he’s 腹黑而睿智. 睿智 means “wise and prescient=clairvoyant, able to predict things before they happen. 腹黑 means “sweet and warm on the outside, but scheming and devious on the inside”. iirc, it refers to people initially thinking lxc’s Complicit, which, I WISH. then she says that knowing his brother’s heart doesn’t mean he knows everyone else’s, and that being a sect leader doesn’t mean one is 心思深沉 and 明察秋毫.

googling the former got me a post in which someone explained that basically it’s someone who’s in control of their feelings/emotions to the point of making use of them to manipulate others? kinda like some people have pointed out jgy to be. for example, if someone’s scared, they can draw from this fear to appear scared, vulnerable and fragile, to appeal to people’s emotions. at the same time, such a person is very smart, good at judging others, and determined to achieve their goals. 明察秋毫, meanwhile, means “to perceive the minutest details”.

so, rather than what i feel people interpreted as “why did you think lxc is smart, he’s actually a himbo!”, it’s “no, actually lxc isn’t secretly a genius manipulator underneath!”. apparently fans thought that was the case, and were rather disappointed when they found out the truth. their loss, more lxc for me!

for jgy, she said 瑶妹，好吧，偶尔也会觉得有点可怜哦不过对不起还是请你光荣狗带, which gtrans says is “Yaomei, well, sometimes I feel a little pitiful, but I'm sorry, I still ask you to honor the dog”. the last part had me ?????, i googled it, and sighed a little about the possibilities of chinese as a language. the last two hanzi, 狗带, literally mean “dog leash”, but they’re pronounced... gou dai... (this still doesn’t necessarily mean she dislikes him/that fans are meant to dislike him)

as for nhs, based on the number of duibuqi’s, mxtx feels more sorry for him than for jgy :’) she said she’s had to delete a lot of scenes with him, and a good 搭檔 partner/workmate? did nhs also have a sms-like sidekick? well, “I'll see if the new revision can fix it...“, she says. hm!

Halo: Combat Evolved #11 (Spoilers for the game, naturally)

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Extra - Part 4 - Part 5 - Part 6 - Part 7 - Part 8 - Part 9 - Part 10

Whew, I made it through Two Betrayals so now I’m SURE that this campaign will be super easy and fun! We’ll meet up with our good pal Captain Keyes and have a nice picnic or something, right?

RIGHT?

NO, THERE IS NO PICNIC. I’ve been swimming in coolant. I’ve been blown up SO MANY TIMES. SO, SO MANY TIMES. I once got blown OUT OF THE MAP in the ship into what looked like water under the floor. No, I kid you not. I “swam” around for a bit until it suddenly popped me back up into the map in a hallway. Where I got mobbed by the Flood who just REALLY wanted Master Chief’s autograph. I mean, they were INSISTENT on taking selfies with him. Some of them got so upset that they didn’t get a selfie and autograph that they EXPLODED in sadness.

LORD HAVE MERCY. Somebody remind me why I’m doing this? I don’t think Captain Keyes is going to be okay, he didn’t sound well when he told us to leave and, honestly, I think we should take his advice.

C’mon, Chief, let’s just get out of here and hope for the best, hm? Chief? Please?

Yay, we’re out of here! Chief and I are gonna go get a cheeseburger, some fries and maybe a milkshake because, dang it, we’re tired. We’ve been blown up many, many times tonight and we deserve a nice meal after all of that. *nodnods*

Sweet mother of pearl, frens. I’m almost 22 hours in now and at least I think there’s just this campaign and one more. And then I’m going to buy the Master Chief deluxe figure I’ve been wanting for a while now to celebrate. Because yes.

He comes with an itty-bitty Weapon (but she’s small enough I think you could call her Cortana, couldn’t you?)! Plus she comes with a light-up base and I just really want them, y’all. 🥺

Oh, something I wanted to ask my in-the-know Halo gamer frens... I managed to acquire the pinata skull (yay for me for doing something extra but DARN IT, I wanted those endless grenades when you melee somebody 👍) in the last campaign but I can’t figure out how to equip it. My google-fu gave me unhelpful answers, mainly on how to GET the skull.

Only thing I can find is that it says you equip it in the missions but I don’t go in there to resume my game so didn’t know if that would somehow mess things up. 🥴 I certainly don’t want to start this campaign all over again given that I’ve made it finally into the ship and Cortana has me looking for the... shuttle bay? I think that was it, I was a little busy being WREKT while she was explaining it but I was following an arrow and getting close to it. But I can’t make it through the large open area where you get pummeled by a zillion Flood. I’ve tried lobbing grenades at them to clear them out. I wish I still had my rocket launcher but I have the shotgun (low ammo) and a plasma pistol.

Anyway, I certainly don’t want to end up outside doing the start of this level all over again but I thought I might try it when/if I get through here and start The Maw. It sounds like lots of grenades might be helpful there? 👀

I’ll have to investigate further. Wish me luck, Spartans, ODSTs, marines and civilians alike! Master Chief and I are outta here for tonight! ⭐

Part 12

#halo #halo: combat evolved #ais is an amazing gamer /s #i think my next game will be something nice and no stress #do they make like a care bear game or something?#i think that might be more on my level right now #lo #i am having fun though #it's just really tough!#ageless aislynn

Tag People You Wanna Get to Know Better

Tagged by the lovely @oddishblossom ♥ thank you so much Lucy! And I am so incredibly sorry I’m only doing this now, it took me a while aah ;;;

Relationship Status: Single

Favorite Colors: Pink, blue, green, purple, orange... (I love lots of colors tbh)

Song Stuck in My Head: Die for you by Valorant

Last Thing You Googled: ... the list of g.enshin i.mpact playable characters because I kept forgetting their names (admitting I’ve fallen victim to this game...)

Time: 12.05 AM as I answer that one

Dream Trip: Would love to go to a Nordic country! It’s been on my bucket list for a while now

Last Thing You Read: It most likely was a svsss fanfiction but which one, I’m not sure

Last Book You Enjoyed Reading: Actually my answer is the same as @oddishblossom there =‘D Scum Villain Self Saving System brings me so much joy. I love it so much, I want to read it 1000 times.

Last Book You Hated Reading: Again my answer is so similar to @oddishblossom there as well! (also disliked tokyo ghoul, this manga really isn’t for me) but yeah, aside from fanfiction, I’m very picky with books as well and I tend to drop them if I’m not interested/bored... I don’t think I ever hated a book though? I can think of only one I really hated reading and it was a mandatory book for highschool (so couldn’t drop it, and maybe that’s the reason why I hate it so much, because I had to read it and every single page had me going “when is this book gonna end”.) It was L’assommoir by Emile Zola

Favorite Thing to Cook/Bake: Now this is hard because I adore cooking/baking and I love to cook/bake tons of different things. But I think... baking the most simple cakes is genuinely always a nice time for me, I love doing that a lot ;v;

Favorite Craft to Do in Your Free Time: Depends on my mood to be honest.

Most Niche Dislike: (100% understand the nail thing because SAME) hm, I guess what’s being asked is a dislike that is not a common thing? Okay it might sound weird but it makes me highly uncomfortable to hear birds singing in the middle of the night. And by that I mean, the type of bird chirps you usually hear during day time... If I hear them and it’s like 2 or 3 am, it makes me so uncomfortable it’s hard to explain...

Opinion on Circuses: I have been to the circus once (once) in my life when I was idk, maybe 6? Can’t remember how old I was, but I remember I ended up crying so hard my mom probably thought “nope, never again”

Do You Have Any Sense of Direction: God no, I’m so SO bad at this, sadly o(-(

Tagging @caintana ; @xkilluas and @highstrionics (only if you guys want to, no pressure!)

hiiii daydayie hiiiiiiii 💖💖💖💖💖

you said you wanted asks so here I am. you better appreciate this.

also I guess I'll send some emojis for the ask thing: 🧐 🎃✅💋

🧐 Do you spend much time researching for your stories?

i actually don't. well i do sometimes, but those are mostly just details most of the time. i googled a little bit about roadtrips across the us when i was writing the canyon moon fic. one time i did an extensive research about the salem witch trials for a fic that hasn't seen the light of day yet and most likely won't for at least a very long time and that was fun. but most of the time i just wing it honestly aksjdhksa

🎃 Do you write fics for certain holidays? Which is your favorite holiday inspired fic?

not really! when it comes to reading, for example, i actually make sure not to read holiday fics during the holiday that is happening which leads to me reading christmas fics during summer or like. valentine's day fics during fall. one of the last fics i posted was a little bit valentine's day themed? if that counts?

✅ What's something that appears in your fics over and over and over again, even if you don't mean to?

oh man what a question. well for one, a bit of angst, like i mentioned in the previous ask askdsk. a weird amount of dissociation and thoughts about feeling real and like a person? a lot of 'darling's, although that might be on purpose. also a lot of peculiar boys and thoughts about how interesting it is to know them. as a self proclaimed founder of the sad artist cinematic universe, there is also a lot of sad artists having breakdowns (althought that might be more obvious once i finish a few of my wips that for once i am actually working on and not leaving to die lol). also the influence of lana del rey, maybe?

💋 First kiss fics. Love em or hate em?

hm i don't really have these strong opinions on first kiss fics but i won't turn down a good first kiss if someone's offering!

send me an ask!

#hi arlo ily #thank u for the ask aksdhkjs <33333 #ask game #friends #📮

thank you! i'm happy to be back <3

that is a long time when things are going downhill but it is better to get out rather than later. that's great, it does show personal growth for both of you and it is nicer for things to end on a more positive note or a positive development. it really doesn't, everything become a hot boiling cauldron of mess and that's true otherwise ill feelings may start to develop too if the attempts keep failing or misunderstandings occurs.

isn't the pc version only for windows users though? i don't think gi and the others were planned for the play stations but they did so well so the company was able to do that. i suppose they don't see the need? because there will be more pc users than switch users and i highly doubt the game would be free for the switch version.

oh, i'm assuming he wasn't allow to teach the classes that you were in then? that's good because it probably would been a problematic problem to have. that is more convenience and that does sound like a funny story 🤣 that was the only incident so it's never been too bad.

if it's from tiktok then we had seen it. it is hard to depart from a childhood friend but the association would only lead to trouble and another reason why koko might been more keen to do it too since inui life would probably been in danger if they still kept ties with each other.

it is a realistic version considering how vile bonten crimes were but maybe inui might had died instead? because the last timeline in s1 both inui and koko are members of the corrupt version of toman. but it is hard to figure it out considering koko was only show in one page during the whole arc 😭 also, have you ever tried cosplaying? i'm getting the outfit together for makima (chainsaw man) but it's only bc i REALLY like the outfit and it's normal clothes that i can wear afterwards. but finding the blazer was a pain in the ass though 😭

i’m glad <3

yeahh lol. i just really really wanted us to work out bc i didn’t wanna lose them as a friend but that ended up not going great until a few weeks ago adhjfhf. very true, yeah.

hm not sure but i thought you can run gi on other systems too... never tried it or know anyone who does tho so what do i know. but if that’s the case, it’d surprise me ngl. hm. so i googled if it would be free on switch, and the speculators mostly said probably yes. bc, after all, one of it’s big advertisements is that it’s free (though you can spend a shit ton of money on gacha if you want to). honestly i just think it’s funny that they confirmed that gi will come to switch one day and then never talked about it again lmao

nope he’s never teached me, we would asked the school not to make him teach me if it was ever a possibility. tho it’s not even really a possibility bc the school i’m going to has like. two types of switzerland’s highschool? the fms & the gymnasium (not a gym-). that probably doesn’t tell you anything adgjhdh but while my dad could teach in either it’s only ever been the gymnasium and i’m in the fms now so yeah lol.

yes, very true. hm.. possibly, he’s dead, yeah, definitely realistic. maybe i’m mixing things up but isn’t bonten the timeline in which inupi & draken run a bikeshop together? adhjfhf. ig the big difference going on between koko & inupi in the bad toman and the bonten timeline is that koko chose to stay before, and then chose to leave. plus i don’t think corrupt toman was a sudden thing, it just gradually went bad so a lot of the people stayed thinking it will get better until it was too late. they originally didn’t know what they’d signed up for. meanwhile koko knew what he was getting into with bonten from the start so he got inupi away from it earlier.

never tried cosplaying and it makes me wanna cry 😭 one day i’ll sew myself venti’s whole outfit and cosplay him, that’s been a dream for nearly two years now... generally i hope to start cosplaying sometime when i move out & make my own money, but that likely won’t be in less than... 7 years 😭 so maybe i will start earlier. anyways that said i’m pretty close to a not 100% accurate low cost cosplay for valhalla kazutora (which was kinda an accident, i just started making my own merch bc i can’t order it lol) bc i’ve made his earring and am working on the jacket.. inverted colors but still. i just gotta FINALLY paint the logo on. and i wear similar pants on the daily plus my boots are boot enough i think. so technically i have everything except a wig lol. also also makima :0 ngl she looks pretty hot plus true, her outfit is practical, so i def get why you’re cosplaying her. even if i don’t like her at all too... ah i can imagine the blazer being hard to find 😭 tho i’m happy you managed to do it eventually!!

Jellyfish - JJ Maybank

Request: Hey! I was wondering or you could do an outer banks imagine where like in season one the pogues leave kie, Sarah and reader on a boat, and the reader is the one getting stung by a jellyfish. The night goes on and she starts having an allergic reaction the jellyfish sting and her breathing starts to go bad and all dizzy. The girls have to call a mayday. And the sherif/ambulance boat? Comes and gets her or the pogues come back the next morning and she is not well at all. Then hospital. The pogues feel really badx Maybe reader x jj? 

A/N: I just started a rewatch of s1 tonight so I can finally watch s2...also I googled allergic reactions to a jellyfish sting for this.

Outer Banks Masterlist

✰ ✰ ✰ ✰

Sarah stood beside you, practically holding you up, as you emptied the contents of your stomach into the marsh for the fifth time in so many minutes. The boys plan to strand Sarah and Kiara on the boat hadn’t been a very clever one and when you had protested JJ had jokingly pushed you over the edge of the HMS, claiming that now you too were stranded with them. 

It wasn’t exactly how you’d planned to spend your night, especially with everyone on each other’s nerves as severely as they were, you’d been looking forward to taking advantage of that and spending the night back at your house with JJ. Instead, you were stranded on Heyward’s boat with Kiara and Sarah bitching at each other. Not to mention the angry red mark blossoming over your stomach from the jellyfish that had stung you as you’d tread water earlier.

“I thought you said you could fix this stupid piece of shit!” Sarah shouted to Kiara as she rubbed her hand along your back. The juxaposition of her kindness to you and her edgyness with Kiara wasn’t lost on you...even as you felt your head swimming.

“I gotta lay down,” you urged, hands gripping the edge of the boat as you rested your chin against the cool side, staring into the murky water. It was starting to get darker outside but you weren’t paying attention to that anymore. You felt like you were going to throw up again though this time it felt prompted by the dizzy feeling when you moved your head and not the pain shooting through your abdomen.

“Okay, let’s lay down...do you want a blanket or something?” Sarah asked, eyes darting around the boat to check for any spare blankets or sweatshirts.

You shook your head, immediately regretting the action as your vision blurred. “No...no, it’s so hot.” When you struggled to get JJ’s shirt over your head without moving too much, Sarah grabbed the hem of the shirt and eased it up.

“She doesn’t need your help!” Kiara yelled from the hatch, looking out at you with concern. You’d been fine earlier, before you’d boarded the boat with them, before the jellyfish stung you, but now you were doing worse and worse. She was trying to fix the boat but it was obvious that JJ and John B’s genius plan had included purposely sabotaging any chance they had of getting the boat back to shore.

“Obviously, she does!” Sarah shouted back, “she’s puking over the side of the fucking boat! What was in that shit you rolled anyway?”

Kiara looked incredulous at the suggestion that it was the weed they’d smoked that made you like this, “oh cause I poisoned my best friend with weed? Is that it?”

“Maybe!” Sarah shrugged, “how should I know.”

“Not helping,” you groaned, rolling to the side and pressing your hand against your stomach. “Kie...my stomach is killing me.”

“What can I do?” She asked, coming back over to you and Sarah.

“Call for the coast guard or something?” Sarah suggested, looking out over the marsh as if someone would just happen to be driving through. It was pitch black now, the night falling completely. It wasn’t too late yet, close to 9:30p Sarah supposed, but she wasn’t confident that this could last until morning. Who knew when the boys would come back?

“With what phone Sarah? The tower is down.”

“Swim to shore or something then!” She snapped.

“Sure, no problem...why didn’t I think of that? I’ll jump in the fucking marsh in the pitch black and swim toward what I think might be land!” Kiara shouted.

“Guys,” you snapped, pulling yourself up to the edge of the ship again. You felt like you were going to throw up again but there wasn’t anything left in your stomach, “shut the fuck up! You aren’t helping...I know they messed with the boat, is the radio working?”

“Let me check.” Kiara stood up from your side and headed back to the controls, checking the radio. “I’ve got a signal!”

You weren’t sure how long it took between Kiara signaling a mayday and the police boat actually coming out on the marsh because you passed out soon after she’d gotten the signal, slumped against Sarah, the pain in your side and abdomen too much for you to bear. Neither of the girls wanted to leave you overnight in the hospital, worried something would happen the second they left your side, so Kiara scribbled a note and left it taped to the window of the boat.

Gone to the hospital – was all it said. Not very descriptive but extremely alarming, the boys had arrived at the emergency room frantic.

“What the fuck kind of scare tactic was that Kie!” JJ had shouted down the hallway when he saw his friend outside one of the rooms. A nurse down the same hall shushed him as he passed her and he turned around to flip her off.

“Excuse me but you three deserve it after the shit you pulled! Leaving us stranded out there with no communication? You’re lucky the radio worked.” Sarah hissed, shoving JJ when he tried to get passed her into the room.

The second he’d seen her it had been clear the person who was missing, the one who was undoubtedly in the hospital bed in the room he was standing outside of. You’d gotten hurt, seriously if you were here, if they’d had to mayday a police boat.

“What happened?” Pope asked, quieter than his best friend had been able to muster.

“She’s allergic to jellyfish.” Sarah replied, turning a glare on JJ, “when this moron pushed her in the water she got stung and had a reaction.”

“Is she okay?”

“She’ll be alright...she’s dehydrated though, so she’s on fluids for the rest of the – JJ!” Kiara snapped when he pushed passed her to get into the room. He moved the curtain aside to see you there, still a little out of it from the exhaustion of the night before but you smiled when you saw him.

“Hey,” he dropped his voice down to a whisper, a contrast to the sharp scrap of the chair that he dragged to your bedside, “I’m so sorry.”

“Guess I’m allergic to something after all.” You managed to tease, recalling the conversation you’d had a few weeks earlier when JJ had begrudgingly given up the peanut butter and jelly sandwich he was trying to make at John B’s when you reminded him that he was highly allergic to peanuts.

He’d claimed that “maybe it went away”, a possibility you both knew to be impossible while you told him that you weren’t stabbing him with an epi-pen if he had an allergic reaction. “I would stab you, if you were allergic to anything,” JJ had replied, settling for jelly on toast instead.

“That doesn’t make me feel better.” JJ said now, eyeing the bag of fluids that was connected to you via IV. “I would’ve been fine thinking you didn’t have any allergies.”

“It’s not your fault JJ, it was an accident...I could’ve been stung a million times before this, we literally live on the coast.” You tried to laugh and coughed; throat still sore. JJ grabbed for the pitcher of water at your bedside and poured you a glass, leaning over to help you swallow.

“Yeah but you didn't get stung a million times before this...you got stung after I pushed you in!”

“We should let you get some rest,” Pope’s voice sounded over JJ’s shoulder and you both looked over to where he was standing at the curtain. He smiled at you, a silent ‘glad you’re okay’ and ‘sorry’ rolled into one.

You nodded, more than aware that you were on the verge of falling asleep again. Still, you reached for your boyfriend’s hand, settling for his wrist instead as he was still holding the plastic cup. “Will you stay?” you asked, eyes meeting JJ’s.

“Yeah, of course.” He promised, sitting back down, “I’m not going anywhere.” He didn’t mention the absolute panic that had racked through him when he saw Kiara’s note or realized you were the one that was injured and he definitely didn’t tell you how severely he blamed himself for you getting stung in the first place, instead he just sat there holding your hand and promising that he would stay there with you until you were discharged. “Everything’s okay, you’re okay.”

║Venti║ Stars (R)

Requested from Wattpad.

Female reader as requested.

Warning: •Those who does not know what R-rated means, it simply means that it is restricted to children under 17 (according to google).

•This will most likely be crap because I still don't know how to write NSFW oneshots.

Word count: 2.1k

---

"Just - hic - one more, Master Diluc!" Filled with the nightlife atmosphere in Angel's Share, Venti decided to join as well for the sake of sharing the same joy every Mondstadtian holds.

"You do know that these aren't free.." Diluc grumbles, a look of irritation visible on his face. "And don't you think you've had enough? You've had 33 glasses now."

"Ah, I can never get enough of Master Diluc's amazing brew!" the small bard exclaims. Diluc's face remained unchanged by the complement and went to make another glass for him. "You better pay for these."

"Haha, oh, Master Diluc, aren't you the jokester." Venti giggles. "I'm not joking," Diluc plainly said. "Haha, oh well.. Anyway.." Sounds of chatter drown out the taller male's warning that night by a loud bard who was starting to become tipsier with each drink.

After a couple more drinks- actually, it totalled to 50- Venti was now showing signs of passing out with his head on the counter, aside from occasional giggles and hiccups. Diluc grumbles in complete disbelief. Now that the bard was drunk, there was no way he would listen to his words.

An irritated sigh left the tavern owner's lips, seeing as he could do nothing about it. "I'll make sure you pay for it tomorrow so just go home," Diluc said to the bard who luckily listened, walking drunkenly out the tavern. "Thanks, Master Diluc!"

The cold air of the night brushed past the skin of the male, giggling as it tickles him. Oh how much he loves the wind so much.

Tonight, Venti did not go home- if he even has one- and instead, walk straight out of the city's gate; heading towards Starsnatch Cliff where he knew someone was sitting there all in her lonesomeness.

"(Y/N)!" the bard cheery voice made its way to your ears, making you turn to look at him. He waves and drunkenly giggles. "Venti, what are you doing here?"

"Hehe, I thought that my goddess wouldn't be asleep at this time and was here~" he answers, sitting down beside you. One sniff of him and your face wrinkled as if you were smelling a garbage site. "Ew, you went to the tavern again!?"

"Ehe." He shrugs, eyes closing into crescents as he smiled. You shook your head and brought your knees close to your chest, hugging it. You did not want to further push about the boring topic as it was quite often he would try to get wine from Diluc so silence was the only thing you could do.

You look at the stars in awe, a small smile tugging the corner of your lips. "It's quite nice today-- even the weather," you stated randomly. Venti leans back, using his arms as support. He took a glance at your soft figure before averting it to the sky you were seeing. "Even if it was cold, I would control the wind to make it warm for you," he points out, a smile of his own visible on his face.

In the midst of another silence, Venti's drunken state had his eyes started to wander on you, eyes tracing your face down to every detail. Your eyes that were half-lidded, your nose that was ever so his favourite feature, your lips-- oh let us not get into detail as to how much he loves those lips. Soon, his eyes wandered down to your neck and the strands of hair resting on it to tease him.

It might just be him being drunk and deluded or the atmosphere, but something in him wanted to do more than just looking at you.

With that being said, his hands slowly encircled your waist and drew you closer to him so that he could rest his chin on your shoulders. To you, it was just him wanting to hold you; nothing too suspicious and you continued to dismiss him.

However, that innocent thought was no longer when you felt his hands rub your sides in a slow and lustful manner. "V, Venti..!" you stutter, eyes widening as you look at him from the corner of your eyes.

He hums, eyes closed. "What is it, (Y/N)?" his voice still holding the same cheeky persona as his smile just grew wider. "U, um..!!" Your words died out on your tongue, the sudden rise of heat too overwhelming for you.

His lips made their way to your earlobe. "What's wrong, (Y/N)? Are you unwell?" he asks, a smirk replacing his playful smile. You bit your bottom lip and closed your eyes, unsure of what to do as you felt something in your stomach. It was like a fluttering feeling when you see your crush, but quite different.

"Do you.. Want me to help you, (Y/N)?" he breathlessly asks and went to nibble the sensitive part of your ears. A whimper that escaped your throat failed you which just urge the male further. His lips then slowly made their way to your neck and he was suddenly washed with the intoxication of your smell.

Not waiting for a reaction, he starts off by licking your neck and soon, sucking it hard enough to leave a mark. Once again, another whimper left you. You felt embarrassed by the sounds you had made, but the growing heat in the atmosphere was too much for you to fight.

One of his hands made its way down your body, rubbing your thighs as the other massages one of your breasts. Your chests start to expand wider with each breath you take.

Venti's hands soon returned to your chest and began to unbutton your shirt ever so skillfully. Once it was fully undone to the last button, he moves in front of you, pushing you down the grass and hovering on top of you.

His eyes were filled with lust and craved for you and your body. Hungrily, he smashes his lips onto yours and had a full heated session. He licked the bottom of your lips and you obliged, opening your mouth to allow his tongue to adventure inside, winning dominance.

He went back and suck the other side of your neck, also leaving a mark there as his hands unclip your bra, kneading your breast between his fingers.

At that point, heat, too, filled your body and made your mind hazy, letting out a moan. Soon, his lips trailed downwards and took the other breast in his mouth. He continued to do so and switched to give the same attention to the other.

His hand went lower, pulling your skirt down to your thighs. Teasingly, he rubs his fingers on your clothed cunt and you moaned yet again. "Hehe, you are so naughty, (Y/N)~ Already this wet for me?" he says, continuing to run through the article.

Soon, he had enough of the teasing and pulled down your last piece of clothing, leaving you fully exposed to the cool air of the night while he was still fully clothed.

"Tell me, (Y/N), what do you want me to do~?" he asks, pressing his cold fingers on your cunt, making you whimper. When you didn't say anything, he leaned closer to your ears and whispered, "If you don't tell me.." He moves his fingers teasingly. "I could just leave it here~"

"N, no..!" You shot your eyes wide open, revealing your desperation and lust. "Hm~? Then tell me, what is it that you want me to do?" He smiles and his eyes were overshadowed with a dark playfulness.

"P, please.. I, I want your fingers.. In me.." you say, a bit embarrassed at the dirty words that left your tongue. Venti chuckles, but answered to your wish, plunging one finger inside which made you moan. Urged on by the sound, he entered a second one. "Look at you~ So greedy for my touch."

You weren't listening to his words as he starts pumping his fingers, slow at first to make you just whimper. "What do you want me to do now, (Y/N)?" he asks once again. "Is this too slow for you?"

"Please.. G, go faster..!" Again, listened to your wish and started to pump faster, adding two more fingers in the mix. He returns to attack your breast and bit your nipples and his free hand went to massage the other.

The stimulation was too much for you, being touched everywhere soon made a knot inside of you that was waiting to be snapped at any moment. "V, Venti..!" That was all he needed to hear for him to stop, moving away from you.

You look at him, confused and upset, but that was soon answered as he stood up and pulled both his pants and undergarments down. "(Y/N), why don't you be a good girl and repent?" he beckons you to go on your knees.

You listened, getting on your knees and bringing your face closer to his cock that was dripping with precum. "Well? Don't tell me you don't wish to repent." You gulped and slowly bring your lips to the tip of his dick, licking the precum off of it.

You felt him shudder from above which urged you on. You opened your mouth and brought half of it inside your mouth, earning a groan from the male.

You then started to suck on his cock and another moan erupted from his vocal cords, putting a gentle hand on your head. You only sucked halfway of it and pumped the rest, not wanting to choke.

When it has gotten to a point that was much to his pleasure, he grabbed a fistful of your hair and pushed your head; pushing his cock deeper into your mouth. You moaned on his cock, feeling it touch the back of your mouth and made you gag.

"Don't stop now, (Y/N). After all, you want to be forgiven right?" He tugs on your hair and you continued. Venti became a moaning mess, guiding your head as he does so. And soon, you felt his cock twitch inside you. You suck him faster, wanting to help him in his release.

Followed by a long moan, he fills your mouth with his juice, keeping your head locked on his dick so that you don't waste a single drop.

Once you gulped all of them down, he pulls away. "Aren't you a good girl~?" he coos. "You deserve a reward so why don't you get on your hands and knees for me, hm?"

You listened, wanting to get your own release as well. He got behind you and you felt excitement wash through you and the knot that was still there.

He put his hands on your breasts, giving it a little squeeze. "Are you sure about this, (Y/N)?" he whispers in your ear. "You can always tell me to stop, okay?" You nod.

With that, he moved his wet cock inside you. You whimpered at the overwhelming foreign heat that entered you. Venti was patient with you and waited for you to adjust to the feeling.

"P, please move.." you say breathlessly after a while. Venti listened and started to enter and leave your hole, building up his stimulation once more.

Moans, pants, and lust filled that night and at each thrust, he went faster and faster as you grip onto the grass, feeling your legs numbing. "Harder, Venti..!" you cried out, the knot close to breaking.

His grip on your waist was for sure going to leave marks on your skin, but that didn't matter to your right now.

He pulls out completely but quickly slams it back inside you. Your head jerks up and moaned loudly. The sight of the was stars blurring as you were being pounded into and drool went down the corner of your mouth.

Venti's thrust became sloppier and sloppier by the second. He buried his face on your shoulders and bit it hard enough that it drew blood, but you were too focused on the pleasure that you hadn't noticed.

"V, Venti, I--" At that moment, the knot snapped and you came on his dick. Venti thrusts a couple more times before he, too, came inside you, groaning as his second wave was finally released.

He fell on top of you, both your legs too weak to carry the weight of your bodies. He didn't take himself out just yet and listen to the two of you pant.

"Let's go home, hm?" he suggests between heavy breathing. You nod and watch as he pulls out, letting out a whimper at the sudden emptiness inside you.

He dresses himself up first and later helped you since you were unable to do it and carried you home. "I love you, (Y/N)." He kisses the side of your head, watching you slowly fall asleep.

[Translation] Aka no Hanayome Vol 1 | Ichi no Kouho: Hanabusa Mizuho

I was supposed to post this originally on Valentines day but I missed the deadline I set for myself =u=' Welp, better late than never. I knew I had to translate this when I saw no translations. At least I hope not 👀 Did not regret it. Hanae Natsuki's voice and voice acting are divine~ And Mizuho does give off the tsundere vibes if he isn't already one.

Before you read the translation though, I'd also like to give credit to this amazing blogger and their blog post on this which you should check out. It's mostly Chinese though so you'd probably have to auto-translate the whole page like I did. Yes, I do rely on Google Translate for everything but hey, it helped me decipher what was going on and they had great commentary ehe

Okay! Here's your mandatory warning that this translation is R18. I mean.. most of my translations probably will be.

Synopsis: https://wakannaiyo.tumblr.com/post/107889984948/brother-lover-aka-no-hanayome-completely

紅ノ華嫁壱ノ候補：華房瑞穂 CV: ペロペロチーノ

Track 1: The Master's Prospective Bride (主人の花嫁候補)

[0:11] Enter. Exactly on time, huh? So I guess the last guy didn't try to keep you 'till last minute. What are you doing? Close the door already. Well then, how long do you intend to keep standing over there? It's hard to talk with you that far away. Hah..! How about coming closer without me having to tell you? There's fine. Sit down. [1:06] If you've already sat down, strip. What's there to be confused about? I am of course referring to your clothes. Or is there something there that you can't show to your master? ..H-Hey! What type of person suddenly starts taking all their clothes off?! Who told you to get full on naked? I didn't mean it like that..! The mark. It's fine as long as I can see where the mark is. I want to know the current status of the other candidates. [1:50] Mm? Ohh.. I heard one was on the right shoulder, but it's also on the back. Show me a bit more of this part. It's hard to see the mark well. So it's.. a sunflower? That means the branch house is... Hmph, this situation, isn't it pretty much the same as before? He seems to be your classmate, or something like that? Well, whatever. Show me the next one. It's on a place where you have to take off your socks? A peach blossom... on the instep of the left foot? (T/N: Even though he said right foot, technically, the position is left so I'm not rlly sure) Hm~! As an illegitimate son, the placement suits Hidemasa quite well. However, to think that the scope of the candidates chosen was this extensive? Hmph, even the mistress's son was included as a candidate. I have no idea how you even spent a month with that guy. And... My older brother's mark? [3:08] Hey. Where is Kouki's mark? W-Wait! Is there no way to see it, without raising your skirt? Uh..! ..It's on your inner thigh? On such a troublesome place.. With you sitting like that, it would be hard to show. Stick out your left leg more. Ah, that's fine. Now his flower is, a chrysanthemum. What's more; it's more related to the government than the other ones. (T/N: Chrysanthemum is recognized as the national flower of Japan alongside cherry blossoms because it is the Imperial Emblem of Japan) ..That too I can understand. [3:52] You.. like my older brother right? Don't you realize that denying it in a hurry like that makes you look even more suspicious? Hm. Though whether you deny it or not, it doesn't change the fact that the mark has blossomed to this extent. There's no point in trying to hide it. Aren't you glad? After having to constantly long for my brother, why aren't you honestly expressing yourself? Why are you denying it so fervently? Do you think I'm unaware of things? Back when you just started working for the Hanabusa house as a maid, you might have been able to work for him if you kept up a good job. I have ascertained that it was your dream. Why are you so surprised? The way your thoughts easily appear on your face hasn't changed at all since then. It's not just me. Weren't you aware that you've always been like that? As I'll tell you; you've served me for a long time. You could even say you're part of the minor exception from all the countless other servants I've fired throughout the years. Ah, no– maybe that's only about half of the reason but.. Even so, you still weren't able to become my brother's exclusive maid. That guy originally didn't want any servants to be placed near him. I'm sure you knew as well? If the ceremony for selecting the head of the family wasn't held and my brother succeeded the family as it is, all the servants under the Hanabusa house would have been expelled. That person.. loathes the status inequality after all. [5:45] But now with the current circumstances, even the eldest son is just another mere candidate. The conditions of this curse.. I don't exactly understand the custom itself, but it's certainly convenient for me. With this, it's finally possible for me to beat my older brother on the same playing field. That's enough. You can put your leg back. [6:12] Hey. Who told you to start buttoning up? We still haven't

finished yet. Show me mine. The flower's on the left side of your chest.. That's good~ Right over the heart. Hm.. It still isn't as vivid yet ..huh? Looking at it properly, the outline's the same as the one on my left hand. Can I really do this? Hm~! Well, it's fine. We still have a lot of time left starting from today after all. As long as I know more about the other candidates, it's going to be easy. [7:06] You being the one I have to get close to is rather relieving, you know. (?) The fact that the marks appeared on you just means that there wasn't any other woman more preferable for the position. Besides, on the off chance that the selection ceremony for the family's head were to be held, you would have been educated by your parents from an early age in order to serve me, as well as aid me in becoming the head of the family, is that right? Right now is the time for that chance. Play your role well, to the best of your ability. Hmph~ Even if you've already proven your obedience, there's still four hanayome candidates. We won't know precisely what anybody's true motives are. [7:57] Ahh.. You basically have that maid outfit as a uniform. But I'll inform you just in case. I would prefer if you wore clothes that covered the marks by all means for the time being. Stop messing around with the other candidates. Make sure that the other guys can't see the marks. Even if you have to resort to hiding them, I won't mind whichever method. [8:25] By the way, how are you feeling today? Being selected as the hanayome bride means that the curse is currently in effect, isn't it? Your complexion.. doesn't look too bad however.. I see. In that case, prepare chamomile tea. The other guys don't normally drink tea I assume. During the full three months that you were with the other candidates, did you think I was making tea for myself? That's the job expected of the servant who serves their master isn't it? In any case, it was always useful to have you around. Ahh, make chamomile tea for two. That's not it. You were going to drink too, right? Even before this meeting, what was I to do if I wanted to drink tea for two people? *sigh* You want to drink tea as well right? Give it a rest for today. One month from now.. Even I don't know what will happen.

Track 2: Sweet Water, Bitter Punishment (甘い水苦い罰)

[0:04] Oh, it's you. Good morning. No, the time's just fine. I got it. You can bring my meal here. Father's on a business trip today. I'll be eating in my room. What is it? If you have something to say, then say it clearly. So what? My brother may still be here, however I have no regards for eating together with him. Is that clear? Bring the meal over here. [1:02] Ahh.. You can eat together with me in my room. It's been my turn since last week. You have no obligation to trouble yourself with anybody else's orders. Understood? Hm, if you do then start doing as I said. Ah, and make sure to finish early today! We have something to do after school. Don't forget. [1:50] *sigh* You finally came. Being in a different grade level makes it inconvenient at times like these. Ah, you don't have to. I can carry it myself. Since we won't be using a car today. I told you that we had something to do afterwards right? I didn't call for one for that reason. I'll contact them about our location later while we're on the way. Come on, let's go. Hurry up and guide the way. [2:26] Didn't you say that there was a cafe you liked recently? One that's pretty close to the academy, but isn't well-known by most students. It's not like.. there has to be a particular reason. This is also needed to advance the selection ceremony. Even if you're conscious about it, this is only to progress the blooming of your mark. If you really get it, then hurry up and bring us to it. Huh–? Weren't you listening? “This is for the selection ceremony.” Not because of you. So.. stop with that. [3:20] It's like you said. The atmosphere is quiet and cozy, looks good. I guess it wouldn't be bad to come here sometimes. I'm fine, just order what you'd like for the two of us. Ah, a coffee special would be fine. You're worrying about it too seriously. Your brows are wrinkling. Are you that concerned about it? If you can't narrow it down to two, you'll just have to narrow it down to three. I'll still eat either way. Uuh.. What is it this time? You're staring with that predatory look in your eyes. That's why I told you; this isn't for you. This too, it's for the sole purpose of advancing the selection ceremony to become the next family head and so I– Y-You.. Are you even listening? Forget it. Hurry up and order. [4:44] Hmph~ Women really do get excited when eating dessert... Why the apology? It's not like you could help it. It's just, I don't fully understand why is all. Hah.. How many years has it been now that you've been with me? Was there ever a time you've heard me say I don't like sweets? Besides, if you hated it, you wouldn't go through the trouble of coming here to ask for a glass of water. What makes you think I would force myself to eat something I dislike for you? Indeed, I don't like sweets as much as you do, but I don't hate them either, and the food here.. it doesn't taste half bad. Really... this happy over something like this. Nothing, never mind. [5:49] That reminds me. About the selection ceremony, how much do you know? So that's how it is.. There's not much difference from what I already know. (T/N: Lore dump! If I make it through this, it's gonna' be because of the description they gave on their website because otherwise, I'm screwed) Held once every few decades, a flower-shaped mark representing a house candidate appears on the hanayome bride's body. The one who first blooms their flower mark will be chosen to become the new head. There should have been one hanayome bride per candidate originally, but this year, all candidates are connected to only one hanayome. You're rather pitiful as well. You've got four men vying for you somewhat. Hmph, well, it is our purpose as candidates since you're the bride. Being selected as the hanayome bride would be.. tiresome simply put. However, dealing with not one, but four candidates pretty much screams chaos. So this time as a special case, it's been decided that each candidate will get one month to bloom their respective flower marks. Whoever manages to fully bloom their

mark in the shortest amount of time, they'll let the candidates compete and narrow it down to that. [7:07] Speaking of which, I tried looking up whether there was any similar case in the past, though it seems this selection ceremony is the only incident of it ever occurring. There wasn't anything else related to it recorded. It's hard to believe there were no problems. Many of the higher-ups.. could have possibly hidden it well. Unfortunately, there's no way for me to access that information. That kind of thing, it's something my brother would have a better shot at. [7:40] Hmh... Regarding the selection ceremony itself.. I still don't understand much of it. Other than that, how are you faring with your position as the bride? I've divulged most of the information I know so far as it is. Do you know anything more than what I've told you? Is that so.. To elaborate, about the marks on your body. Do they hurt? Personally, my left hand starts to hurt a little occasionally. Right now it's completely fine. However, yours compared to mine, isn't it completely different? You just said that you experience seizures. How does it— *perfect timing seizures occur* [8:29] H-Hey!? What just happened-? ..W...Water? Here! After drinking that much, your heaving hasn't changed.. Is your throat still dry..? ..You– ..Are these the seizures? A.. Ah! You have medicine? Your bag, which pocket is it in? Is this it? Hey, I got it! This medicine.. Isn't this just apple-flavored candy!? Would this even work? Hold on, I'll give you some. Here! Open your mouth. Is your breathing alright? You're still sweating.. Are you listening to me at all? This.. Do you still feel thirsty? But you're– until now, you've never had a seizure. Ah.! Did you really... Were you just putting up with it in front of me this whole time? You dumbass.! Just be patient. I'll call for a car! [9:46] This is Mizuho, immediately send a car to the storefront. Do it now!

Track 3: Flowers for the Sake of the House (庭の花は家の為)

[0:11] We'll stay in my room for now. No one will come here. Also, what am I supposed to do? How do you.. suppress these seizures? At a time like this, you're still worried about being formal? Do you still feel thirsty? Your lips became this dry.. [0:40] Uah?? Uh.. I was just touching your lips, wasn't I? Why are you– *gets hit with the sex macguffin realization* Ah..! Could it be... that ridiculous legend's actually true? “Only the 'love' given by the successor.. has the power to unravel the curse.” You, have you constantly had these.. attacks until now? Before my turn came... When they happen, it really.. so that guy did...!? Damn it! Now's not the time for that. Hey.. Look at me. Your seizures, I'll make them disappear. [1:33] Your lips.. don't purse them like that. Do you really hate being kissed by me that much? Then open your mouth. I've only heard that one way to suppress it; is with a kiss and.. whether your seizures will really subside... we won't know if it works without trying. ..Don't reject me. That's it. Just like that. [2:32] Has.. something changed? I feel like your complexion's gotten a little better but.. your breathing's still labored. Maybe just kissing.. isn't enough to calm it completely? Your throat, does it still feel dry? Don't force yourself to laugh with that pained expression. Why? You make it look as if you're okay.. If it feels painful, then say it is. Even since then, you've always had this strange habit of pushing yourself too hard in difficult situations. *sigh* Listen. The possibility of me being the successor.. to make me the head of the family, you've been with me all this time to fulfill that purpose haven't you? If you work to make me the head, there might be a way to break your hanayome curse. In short, it's just duty. So.. accept me. [3:56] Good. You should just lie down. From the looks of it, a kiss isn't enough is it? Your clothes too. I'll take them off, so stay still. [4:17] Oh... Your.. Uh, never mind. Lift your back a little. Your skin is.. fairly pale. And it's soft.. It trembles a little with just the touch of my fingertips though.. Maybe it's because of the attack? Or... are you scared of me? Am I.. doing something terrible to you..? You don't have to apologize. It can't be helped in this situation, right? It's just that.. the thought that there were other guys that might have touched this skin.. it makes me feel this weird feeling that I don't really understand. You.. You've been with me all this time and yet... What a quick reaction~ Hey.. don't cover your mouth. If you hold back your voice, I won't be able to tell whether it feels good or not. Even the way your body reacts, I want to know more about it. Let out your voice. If it's difficult, that's okay too. Are you.. feeling good? You're letting out your voice.. really nicely but... We're only doing this for work. If you think about it like that, it wouldn't be as embarrassing right? So.. you don't have to look away so much. I'll touch you down here too. Even through the underwear, you can tell how wet it is. I'll take this off too. I wonder if I should. (?) Haa... what are you doing worrying about my uniform? Forget it. It'll be taken off eventually, I might as well get rid of it now. ..Your leg's in the wrong place. Bend your knee from the right. That's it. Your body's.. surprisingly soft. There, it's finally off. [8:58] Ah.. How fascinating... It's so wet that you can easily slide a finger in.. It feels good, does it? That's good. It's hot, your insides.. Don't squirm around so much-! It'll only hurt if I don't do this, you know. Or have your seizures already stopped completely? It hasn't yet, has it? Like I said; whatever's happening between us, we're just doing this for the sake of the house. Come on, don't close your legs. And stop flailing your arms. Mm, that's fine. ..I'll put a finger in. Does it hurt..? I see. Then, just a bit more.. It's gotten really wet with just this.. are you okay? Wait a bit. Ah–? Don't look..! I don't have to tell you, do I?

What else do you think I'm doing? There's a rule about that? Even without it, I wouldn't go that far. Now, stay still. I'm putting it in. Tell me if it hurts. ...! What did you apologize for? There's nothing for you to apologize for at all. And.. don't say it at this timing. We're not doing anything forbidden. I, being the successor, and doing this with you... I don't think it's something bad. You're.. going to be my bride after all. Naturally! You've been with me all this time.. You're not opposed to it... are you? Haa.. Then, it's fine now right? Relax your body. [12:21] H-Hey.. Are you okay? ..It doesn't hurt, right? Relax your body a bit more. That's– all of it.. Are you fine? Hey, close your eyes. It's really hot.. inside of you. I'll start moving. Is this good..? Oh-! What is it.? ..Are your ears sensitive? When I kiss your ears, it tightens up.. inside of you. Does this... really.. feel good? Amazing... It's twisting around so much. You too, are you also.. feeling it? Does it.. feel better.. when I do this? Heh~ You really like it in your ears, huh..? Anymore... I can't– much longer..! Uh.. Guh-! [17:06] Hey... How's your condition-? It looks like the seizures have died down now, huh? Hah~ So doing that type of thing actually managed to help.. You having been able to endure it until now must mean.. if there's some type of contact or closeness to some extent, you won't experience an attack? .."Probably," huh? Well, I understand now. I'll keep that in mind. You too. If you feel like you're about to experience anything, tell me right away. Something like just the apple candy you have wouldn't provide much relief, right? Since I'm here now, you don't have to endure it on your own alright? [18:08] Oh yeah, the mark on your body. There's supposed to be a change after giving you 'love', I think. Did anything change? Ah, let me see. [18:24] Oh... heh! You should see it in the mirror later too. The bellflower.. it's blooming even more clearly than before, it's beautiful. Should we bloom it this way..? With this, and the mark on the back of my hand, I finally understand how it works. Look, it's almost the same as mine. This acts as proof. It's a good thing. Any mark other than mine.. I wish they would all just disappear. Ah.? It's nothing. Sleep already. You're tired aren't you? I'm also... worn out.

Track 4: Thinning Out for a Desire to Monopolize (間引きは独占欲)

[0:12] Tongue.. Properly make the mark... This should be fine for today. Even if it easily subsides with a kiss, you should've told me sooner. [0:43] So, how's your mark? Let me see. Ohh... "No change," huh? I guess a kiss alone wouldn't fit the requirements for giving 'love', but if it was like that, then it wouldn't be able to suppress the seizures either.. And we only have about two weeks' time left.. In two weeks, I have to make this flower more vivid than anyone else's, or I won't qualify to be the final candidate. My brother's is still far more clear. If it comes down to this, he'll be.. Just to make sure, his mark that's on your inner thigh, it isn't developing anymore right? What else can we do? Is there no other way than to progress it steadily..? With only two weeks left, is it even possible to darken the mark any more than it already is? [1:57] Mm.. Why is that? The chrysanthemum is the most visible out of all the others' flowers. What's the difference between me and him? In the same way, haven't we both released our 'love' to you? Or is it... like I thought, you still like my brother even 'till now? You.. You like that person better than me, and that's the real reason why my mark hasn't been changing anymore? This mark will only bloom when the love of the successor and the bride's does. I've thoroughly given you my 'love'. So if there's a problem, it's your feelings towards me..! *it's about to get real cuz he body slams kabedons you* Could it be.. you don't want me, but my brother to become the head? Really? You really haven't thought of wanting to be his bride? Heh, you want me to believe you..? When your body has the mark of others imprinted deeply onto you... To expect me to believe in you.. is difficult. Sure enough... I have no other choice but to kill him. [3:31] Uh- Guh–! Don't cling to me! Ha..! As long as my dear older brother's involved, you get so desperate. ..Let go-! Is he that important to you? In that case, there's more reason for me to have him forcibly retire. (T/N: from life) As long as that person remains, I can't take my place as the head of the family. Shut up! There's nothing more for us to talk about. Get out. Did you not hear me? I said leave. Damn it.! No matter what i do, it's always him... [4:39] Why are you here? This is my brother's room, you know. Hmph~! In order to protect him, you decided to plan an ambush here against me? It's the middle of the night but you still work hard I guess. *you tell him to reconsider what he's about to do* I have nothing to "reconsider". You.. do you think you've got me all figured out? How conceited. Get out of the way. I have nothing to say to you. Doesn't it just completely irk you? Knowing full well that as someone who's no more than a bride, you don't have the power to do any real harm? Hmph! I'm warning you; this is pointless. *you pull out a knife and point it towards him* I see, so you... want to kill me? All for that person.. However, if the bride tries to kill a hanayome candidate, the marks will fade, and you will lose the qualifications of a bride. Surely you haven't forgotten that? *you say he's got it all wrong* What's "wrong"!? You have a blade pointed towards me. Aren't you planning to..?! [6:02] *you turn the knife against yourself* ..Why-? You... do you have a death wish? Do you understand the consequences of what you're doing? If you do this, the marks would fade away and disappear. If the bride loses the flowers on her body, she will also lose her eligibility. No one will be able to inherit the title of head any longer. And even you... What would be the point of you working for the Hanabusa family so far, don't you care for any of that?! Well sure, if you were no longer the hanayome bride, you wouldn't have to belong to anyone.. But to die in the process, how does that make it worth it? Even if you don't die, as someone who's lost their qualifications to be a bride, you'd.. be banished from the Hanabusa house. Taking it this far, what are you trying to prove to me by doing all

this? [7:01] You... really are an idiot. You weren't doing this for the sake of protecting my brother, but to prove you were on my side.. laying down your life so easily... This level of idiotic, I've never seen it before. [7:22] That's enough. Give me the knife. No, I won't try to kill Kouki anymore. It's not worth it with you on the line. That's why, you won't need the knife anymore right? Listen well. If you ever disappear on me, as your master, I will never forgive you. So, you better remember that.. I'm going to sleep for today. Come. We're returning to my room.

Track 5: Eternal Love Blossoms in Even a Moment (一時でも永遠の愛は咲く)

[0:05] You too, lie down over here. It could fit us both if we stay close together. It's.. not like I'm planning to do anything weird. Is it alright? Just this once. This is.. somewhat nostalgic. We often used to do this when we were kids, didn't we? Just us, lying down and telling each other dumb stories. Then we'd end up actually falling asleep in the midst of it. That's wrong–! I didn't cry! Didn't you cry a lot back then too? You would always come running to me every time you made a mistake at work.. Heh~ That's true. We'd even cry ourselves to sleep at times. Some things seemed to have changed since those times. As I got a bit older, I've grown up a lot from compared to when I was a kid.. And with the selection ceremony, I never actually thought it would happen with me. But.. it's not like I hated it. Better yet, I thought it was my chance. I wouldn't have been given this opportunity to be a candidate if the selection ceremony didn't happen. My goal is... to surpass that person. This is my one and only chance to do it. In your situation, you were also brought up with the possibility of becoming a bride. It's better to become a real bride rather than just ending it as a maid, isn't it? *chuckle* You're making such a dumbfounded expression. If there's something that hasn't changed at all, it's probably the way you're so open with that sort of thing huh~? I've.. definitely changed. After all, it's not possible to stay a kid forever. [2:37] H-Hey..? What's wrong? ..! The seizures– Are you experiencing them again!? Dumbass! I told you that you didn't have to put up with it anymore, didn't I?! You don't have to keep using something like candy! Whether it's tolerable or it isn't, you're still experiencing the same pain! I'm right here so.. stop trying to endure it by yourself! Here, look this way. [3:30] ...How was that? Ah.. It's better than before? But.. it looks like you're still having trouble breathing normally. Ah- You don't have to. No need to force yourself to talk if it's hard. We'll take it slow. I'll help you through it, until you get better. Starting with... kissing.. Even with this, your throat's still dry right? So.. Step by step, I'll make it feel better so– You're starting to freeze up.. When the attack subsides, I'll stop. Your buttons, I'm going to undo them. [4:48] Ah... R-Right.. You wouldn't wear anything inside before going to bed, I guess that's obvious... Ah- Ah, no.. It just felt too soft all of a sudden. I was a bit surprised, I guess..? Like this.. If I start just by touching you, does it at least have some little effect? Here though. It already.. looks kind of stiff. Oh... Thinking back to it, you.. seemed to like it in your ears. Don't try to hide. The seizures will stop if I make you feel good, right? I'll touch your chest too. Your ears really are weak, huh~ You're already shivering.. Just a little more. I said I'd help make you feel better didn't I? Your breathing's.. still pretty erratic. Even if you're hiding it, I can tell. Raise your hips. It's a bit of a hindrance so.. I'll take off your underwear. A-About that. Removing your clothes one by one's.. wouldn't it be embarrassing? If anything–! U-Um, never mind. Just do it already! Your skin's so fair; I can still clearly see it despite how dim the room is. That's why-! Don't press your legs together. Even if you feel embarrassed, don't move around so much. [8:17] This... The fact that my brother's mark remains on your inner thigh. It's infuriating. Heh~! If I leave a hickey on top of it this way, you won't even be able to tell that his mark's there. Ehehe..! That's right. I really should have done this from the beginning. My older brother's mark... I should have gone over it with my own marks. I won't... Hah.. let anyone else come before me.! Because you're.. [9:33] Oh..? You're- Why are you trembling so much? Ahh... Did you feel it when I was kissing your inner thigh? Because, look. It's completely drenched. The attack looks like it's already been suppressed. It might probably go away on

its own. But.. in this condition, it would still be unbearable for you in a different sense. I'm going to make it easier for you, so you can just lie down like that. [10:22] Ah... Amazing.. It's this wet. Heh~ Oh ..I get it. You like it here, is that right? Then, spread your legs more. I won't be able to lick it otherwise. Why did you close them? You can make such a voice just by me touching it with my fingers. Wouldn't it feel better if I lick it? If it's embarrassing, you can blame it on the seizures. Remarkable... It keeps flowing out... Your hips are shaking.. It's.. done. (?) [11:58] ..Did you come? Are you alright? Your skin still hasn't stopped trembling though.. Woah–?! Be careful..! You're seriously going to make one of us fall off. Don't stick so closely to me like that.. I-I'm fine. I said it earlier didn't I? We can take it slow, step by step. I... wanted to do it, even with or without the seizures.. H-Hey, what're you-!? Ngh.! I already said I was– ..Ugh! I-I'm fine..! ..Are you even listening? Nn-! Hey..! Ah... Don't tell me, you're... that alone just now wasn't enough for you.? Oh? You don't have to stare me with that face, you know? I... I'm sorry alright..? But, it's not something you need to worry about. This is because... when we did that.. it just naturally reacted on its own. Oh? Pfft– *laughs* "It's not fair," huh..? You're really saying something like that right now? Besides, we were originally doing this to get rid of the seizures. ..Or wasn't that true for you? H-Hey, don't move too far to the side. You'll fall. I wasn't really saying all that just to tease you. Come on..! I can't see your face at all with you grasping the quilt so tightly. [14:14] Hey, about... doing this with me... don't you hate it? I don't mean for the sake of suppressing the seizures. Don't you have.. someone else that you like? There isn't?! Ah, but my brother..? It was a really long time ago... Now, you don't anymore? Ah, I see... Heh~! What the heck.. So that's how it was.. I don't know why but.. now, I feel like I can completely trust you. I also.. don't feel bad about... touching you.. either... What's with that weird grin!? *sigh* The way you easily reveal your emotions through your expressions; it truly hasn't changed since you were a kid. No reason.. There doesn't have to be one for me to kiss you just now right..? It's just that I wanted to kiss you, so I did. [16:13] Your breasts... are so soft.. Even just touching you feels nice.. Here too. It's getting more stiff... I want to.. lick it. Hey... Regardless of something like the seizures, you... still want to right..? You do? Heh..! Got it. Ah, no. I... also feel the same. Here.. is it enough? ..It's still really wet~ Just wait for a bit. [18:38] ...Uh—? A-Again.. Like I asked before, why do you keep staring whenever I put it on? During times like this, you're normally supposed to pretend you don't see it. I'm obviously taking off my clothes..! ...Earlier ..I didn't get a chance to.. Uh-? Ugh.. You only care about the strangest things, huh? I want to enter you right now.. Is it okay? If it hurts... just tell me. [19:38] It's so warm..! And it's starting to- really wrap around me... I'm finally in.. Right now though, are you sure it doesn't hurt? A-Ah–! D-Don't just suddenly tighten up..! Mgh~! Guh.. I won't be able to... hold myself back if you do... Nnn.. I did say that, but.. that was about the seizures–!? [20:20] I get it.. I won't hold back either. That's what you want right? I'm going to move. If it gets too much, tell me immediately. Incredible... what you're feeling- guh.. whenever you tense up... from your insides– I can tell. It's hot.. Also my tongue... feels like it's burning..! Is it fine if I go a little more rough..? I want.. more of you... Your voice, I want to hear it.. Hah..! More... let more of your voice out.. ..Me? You already know right..? It feels.. really good.. You look gorgeous.. Why-? ..didn't I notice it 'till now? If y-you– tighten up that much..! Geez... You're...

wicked when you get let like this.! I'm.. already... If you're going to- let's do it... together.. Agh~ C-Coming...! [23:40] Heh.. What's with this feeling? You really are weird~ Suddenly laughing like that out of nowhere. Hey.. Are you okay? I just feel a little dazed... Did I.. make you overdo it? *chuckle* Though I guess you would've told me by now if you felt that way. But.. I'm really glad. You too..? Ah, I see~! ..Lift your head up for a bit. The space left is too narrow if I don't do this...! Hah... It's so warm~ Your body temperature's normally like this, huh.? yawn ...I'm getting sleepy. Hey..? You really are... on my side.. after all.. It's not that I don't believe you after all that happened! After threatening me to put your own life on the line.. I'd have no choice but to trust you. Speaking of which, don't do that kind of thing ever again. ..I believe in you. I'm glad.. that you might be my bride, no, I'll definitely... make you my bride. Without a doubt.

Track 6: Red Bellflower (紅い桔梗)

[0:06] Mmngh... Morning..? Mm~ Just a little more.. O... Oh.. Ugh, this is bad.. Ngh.! Can't feel my arm.. Ugh...! You don't have to apologize so much. It was an exaggeration. It's just a little numb- It'll get better on its own. That's why, you should also sleep in a little mo... Ah?! Your-! That mark..! [0:54] The bellflower, it's.. visibly clearer than before..? Even more than the others.. *laughs* Seriously.. With this, is it finally done..? Hah... You don't have to worry about wearing clothes that hide your mark anymore. In fact, why don't you show it off to the other candidates! Ah- never mind. On second thought, just dress as you normally do. There's no need for you to go through the trouble of wearing clothes that expose your chest to that extent.. Hah~ This way, I can be sure that I am qualified to be a successor as the head of the house. You get it right? I'm one step ahead of every other candidate, including my older brother. Even those half-wits should be able to take a hint if you show it to them. No one will try to think of laying a hand on you from now on. One more thing; when the time comes that I can make this mark on my hand bloom as vibrant as yours, you'll.... become my bride. [2:12] Ah–! That is what I said but..! I will be chosen to succeed the next head was all I meant to say. You were originally meant to serve by my side so... I wouldn't mind if this is the way in which you do.. Guh.. Do you have any complaints? I'm going to guess not..! [2:30] ..Isn't it? When these flowers fully bloom, you can finally break free from the curse. You don't have to suffer through that pain again. Isn't that great? It's not that. It isn't because of the seizures, it's because.. you're my bride... Ah. Ah, no.. It's nothing. I'll tell you after I become the head, so... until that day comes, just you wait. Okay?

Oh! Okay so what if Elana Gilbert and Bella Swan swap places, (like, swap their brains i guess, so their friends and family still think theyre the same) what would happen to them? Would Elana survive Edward’s affections? Would Bella react well to Stefan and Damon? (I kno you only saw some of the show, but i think you saw all the seasons Elana is human, and thats what matters.)

Hm, well the vampires from The Vampire Diaries are human in every way that counts, they're essentially sexier humans with a funky diet.

Elena is in love with Stefan for Stefan, his vampirism is just a facet of him. Edward will be as horrifying to her as a Twilight vampire normally is to humans.

Bella, meanwhile, is in love with Edward for all the wrong reasons. She's not going to fall for Stefan and Damon.

What happens to Twilightified Elena

Depends on when Elena is thrown into Twilight. And on when it is for Elena as well, is it at the beginning of TVD? Because if so, then she's mourning her parents and doesn't know about anything supernatural.

If so, then Elena has a terrible time because she must mourn for her parents in this world where no one knows they died, in fact the internet tells her they never existed in the first place, and there's this well-meaning stranger who wants to father her in their place. The angst would be unreal.

But, Elena of canon wanted to tough it out and stay her partying self, even if only on the surface, so she'd become best friends with Jessica and Lauren, and go with them to every party imaginable.

Somehow or other she loses the Yandere simulator, and is eaten by Edward.

If we take Elena from the end of season 2, then this is an Elena who knows about the supernatural. Bodyswaps are a thing in TVD, so she's stunned to find it happened to her and worried about Bella Swan, but she's got her bearing.

Or so she thinks.

Turns out, the year is 2005.

She tries to get in contact with someone, anybody, from her own world. She searches for the Salvatores, for witches, and in a final last act of desperation she puts on an ad on craigslist to get Elijah.

There's no trace of any of them. Not even when she gets desperate enough to post "Petrova döppelganger looking for original vampire" on her myspace.

Nothing, not even Klaus, just silence.

More terrifyingly yet, it appears Mystic Falls doesn't exist anymore.

It's a terrified Elena Gilbert who walks into Forks High the day after.

She knows at a sight that there's something wrong with the Cullens. When Edward spends an entire hour glaring at her for daring to exist, she is officially creeped out.

Elena returns home very scared that day.

She's in a new place, she doesn't know how to get home, and there are terrifying people at her school who seem to have it out for her.

She spends the following week confirming that everything she ever knew has simply ceased to exist.

Then Edward returns to school after a week's absence, and asks a series of questions aimed at finding out who she is and why she came to Forks.

Elena starts putting two and two together.

Of three things, she is absolutely certain.

One, reality has been rewritten. The people and places in Elena's life no longer exists, nor does Elena herself for that matter.

Two, no one in this world apart from Elena herself appears to be aware that this has happened.

Three, the one other anomaly in this world is the Cullens. They're clearly not human, and act not unlike pod people than everybody else, in fact they interact with no one. Except Elena herself. Who is being singled out by them.

Elena comes to the terrifying conclusion that the Cullens are an unknown species, a powerful magical one, capable of rewriting the laws of reality.

And she doesn't know if she's an accident, if she's Neo misbehaving in the Matrix, or if this reality marble was created to entrap her specifically.

She decides she's had enough.

She has no powers, no resources, no contacts.

What she does have is her wits.

And, possibly, the element of surprise.

Armed with nothing, Elena gets in the truck and drives to the Cullen house, having gotten the address somehow, and made sure to tell Charlie, Jessica, Lauren, Mike, and her Myspace where she's going.

There, she marches up their porch, knocks on their door, and asks to speak with them.

The Cullens, on their end, are stunned.

From their point of view, this is the anonymous singer who's been tormenting Edward. Yes, she has a name and all that, but they don't know anything about her.

More, she should have no interest in them.

Wanting to appear in control of the situation, Elena calls them in to the living room for an honest conversation, all cards on the table.

Well shit, the Cullens say to themselves, Edward's singer had to be the one girl in North America who knows about vampires.

Now, I do believe Elena is too intelligent to blurt everything she knows immediately and lose her leverage.

No, she asks them if she was supposed to know or not.

The question makes perfect sense to her - is she an anomaly in the Matrix, could it be Jessica is in fact amnesia Caroline and Forks as a whole is actually just nu-Mystic Fall, or is it just Elena?

The Cullens, meanwhile, wonder how on earth this girl can think she was supposed to know she was Edward's singer and that they're vampires.

She may not know what she thinks she knows.

Carlisle tells her the truth. No, miss Swan, you were not supposed to know.

Taking this as confirmation that she's in the Matrix, Elena asks if there are others. She, of course, is wondering if there are other people, perhaps right here in Forks, either with amnesia or else keeping their heads low, who have been taken from the real world.

Or, more chillingly, if everyone is living fake lives in this fake world.

The Cullens, meanwhile, wonder what others she's talking about.

Carlisle takes the plunge. Either she knows what the word means or she doesn't, if she doesn't then she'll have nothing to google because this isn't known to humans at all, plus the word is only a rough translation of the Italian term.

"Other singers, you mean?"

Elena blinks.

Singers, like sirens?

The Cullens are terribly beautiful.

But... sirens?

She stows this away for future use.

Elena decides this conversation has been cryptic enough, and point blank tells the Cullens that she means people who don't belong in this reality at all.

I imagine there comes a point where Carlisle has to call Aro. The girl knows nothing about vampires, she thinks they're semi-harmless human-looking creatures that burn in the sun and can be killed by humans. She's not a problem in that regard.

So Aro gets a call from Carlisle, explaining how a human girl showed up on his doorstep claiming he had created an alternate reality, and that her world apparently has a different worldbuilding altogether.

Oh, and Carlisle's telepath son can't read her mind.

He is in Forks practically before Carlisle can hang up the call.

I imagine Elena gets to spend years as a human, because if the body of Bella Swan is somehow a link to another dimension, then altering that into another species might sever the link.

No, Elena, Aro, and Carlisle spend the following years in a Volterra lab, trying and failing to engineer a pathway back to her world.

In the end, if they're unsuccessful, Elena is turned into a vampire, and Aro has a jolly good time reading her memories from another dimension once she has the control to let her shields down.

Elena, who only ever wanted to be human and thought TVD vampires were too spicy to turn into, cries.

What happens to TVDified Bella

Bella somehow manages to feel guilty about not being Elena. This must all be her fault. Somehow.

An optimist as always, Bonnie dives headfirst into reversing whatever spell was put on her best friend.

She never succeeds, and both women are crushed by guilt over something not their fault.

Damon, I imagine, kills Bella sooner or later during a drunken outburst.

Ryuji Korekuni SSR

2017 ー Flower Garden [Flower Garden]

"Geez….. It’s not like all sweets get you back in a good mood."

Part 1

ーIn the meeting room.ー

Ryuji: ‘…..…..’

(Ryuji-kun somehow doesn’t look well….. Maybe he’s exhausted, because the schedule was packed these days?)

Ryuji (sighs): ‘….. Haa.’

Tsubasa: ‘Uhm, are you fine?’

Ryuji: ‘….. Yeah. I’m just a bit sleep-deprived. Work has been going until late, so we’ve been coming home at midnight recently. My mind and body are so agitated after the recording, that I can’t really fall asleep.’

Tsubasa: ‘That sounds hard…..’

Ryuji: ‘Well, when we are finished, we can go home. But the staff has to work until even later, so I won’t complain.’

Tomohisa (smiles): ‘And besides, it makes us happy when it’s busy.’

Ryuji (smiles): ‘Now that you mention it, I heard some unusual work came in.’

Tsubasa: ‘Ah, yes! An offer to appear at the Flower Garden opening ceremony came in.’

Tomohisa: ‘Does it include singing?’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes, it does.’

Tomohisa: ‘Hee, how nice. To be able to sing at something like the Flower Garden sounds romantic.’

Ryuji: ‘Hmm…..’

Tomohisa: ‘Oh, Ryuji doesn’t seem to be attracted to it?’

Ryuji (shakes head): ‘It’s not like that…..’

(Ryuji-kun looks depressed. And seems to be quite tired…..)

Tsubasa: ‘….. Ah! It looks like you will be able to eat plenty of sweets made by a famous hotel pastry chef at the ceremony!’

Tomohisa (smiles): ‘Look, did it catch your interest a bit?’

Ryuji (upset): ‘Geez….. It’s not like all sweets get you back in a good mood.’

Tomohisa (smiles): ‘Hmm. You seem to be in a pretty bad temper today.’

Tsubasa: ‘…..’

(I would like to adjust their schedule in some way, but it seems difficult for a while…..)

Part 2

ーAnother day.ー

(I wonder if the rehearsal for the ceremony is already over? I hope Ryuji-kun is in a better mood…..)

Tsubasa: ‘Hello!’

Ryuji: ‘Oh, Tsubasa, hi.’

Tsubasa: ‘I was able to make a bit of time, so I came to see how you are doing. Here are some refreshments.’

Ryuji: ‘! This is…..’

Tsubasa: ‘The pudding from Ryuji-kun’s favourite store!’

Ryuji: ‘…..!’

Tomohisa: ‘Fufu. Good for you, Ryuji.’

Ryuji (smiles): ‘Just when I thought I wanted to eat something sweet. Aren’t you thoughtful, Tsubasa.’

Tomohisa: ‘Ryuji, that’s where you genuinely say thank you, right?’

Ryuji: ‘Uh….. I was about to do that now!’

Ryuji (blushes): ‘….. Thanks.’

Tsubasa: ‘Fufufu, I am glad you were pleased about it.’

Ryuji: ‘Since you’re already here, should we eat it together?’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes, thank you very much.’

Ryuji: ‘I wonder what flavour should I go with~ ♪.’

(I’m glad. His good mood is all back.)

Tsubasa: ‘Did the rehearsal go well?’

Ryuji: ‘Of course. I was talking with Tomo about how good it feels.’

Tomohisa: ‘You don’t need to worry about the performance, it’s going to be fine. Ryuji’s bad temper has also been fixed in this way.’

Ryuji: ‘Pah. I’m always in a good mood though?’

Tomohisa: ‘Fufu, you’re right.’

Ryuji (winks): ‘Tsubasa, we’ll deliver the best performance, so make sure you have your eyes on us.’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes! I am looking forward to it.’

(Ryuji-kun is so energetic, he does love to stand on the stage after all.)

Part 3

ーThe day of the performance. In the waiting room.ー

Yuta: ‘Ah, it’s Tsubasa-chan! Yahoo!’

Tsubasa: ‘This is where everyone is. Hello!’

Ryuji: ‘…..….. Hello.’

Tsubasa: ‘….. Eh, eh…..?’

(Ryuji-kun is back in a bad mood again…..?)

Tsubasa: ‘Is something wrong?’

Ryuji: ‘….. Not really.’

(Th-The air’s heavy…..!)

Yuta comes closer.

Yuta: ‘Tsubasa-chan, Tsubasa-chan.’

Tsubasa: ‘?’

Yuta: ‘You know, earlier at the venue we met the big people from the organizing. It was only for a bit, but it looks like he was told something mean.’

ーFlashback.ー

Staff: ‘Oh~, it’s you two from KitaKore. Kitakado-kun looks like a prince, so I thought you would certainly be the same type, too….. But you’re a princess, if I had to say so.’

Staff: ‘How about trying out women's clothes? It might have some impact? Come on, genderless is in fashion now.’

ーEnd of flashback.ー

Tsubasa: ‘How terrible…..’

Yuta: ‘I think the other person didn’t really say it with bad intentions maybe, but…..’

Ryuji: ‘Wait, Yuta, what are you telling on me there. Didn’t I say that I didn’t mind it?’

Yuta: ‘But Ryu-chan…..’

Ryuji: ‘That often happens. If I would take that seriously every time, there would be no end to it.’

Yuta: ‘Y-Yeah…..’

(That’s Ryuji-kun for you. Just as I thought, because he’s been doing this work since he was a child his reaction sure is mature.)

Ryuji: ‘…..’

Yuta: ‘…..’

(But, the atmosphere is heavy in the end….. That’s not good before the performance.)

The door opens.

Tomohisa: ‘Ryuji, can I have a minute?’

Ryuji: ‘Tomo. What’s wrong?’

Tomohisa (smiles): ‘What could this be?’

Ryuji: ‘What do you mean, it’s obvious just by looking. It’s a macaron, right?’

Tomohisa: ‘It’s alright, so open your mouth. ….. Here, aaah.’

Ryuji: ‘Aaah…..’

Ryuji: ‘….. Nhhn!’

Ryuji: ‘That’s!’

Tomohisa: ‘Fufu, did you figure it out? A macaron from “him” whom Ryuji loves so much. I asked the people at the venue for this favour.’

Ryuji: ‘To think I’d be able to eat it here…..!’

Ryuji: ‘Could it be that he’s here at the venue?’

Tomohisa: ‘No, it’s a shame, but this time it’s only the sweets. But he said that he’s looking forward to the broadcasting of the performance.’

Ryuji: ‘I see.’

Ryuji: ‘Aah, this taste….. It hasn't changed since back then.’

Yuta: ‘Hey, hey, Ryu-chan! Give me one, too!’

Ryuji (laughs): ‘Eh~? What do I do now, hm.’

Yuta: ‘Waah, don’t be a bully~~!’

Tsubasa: ‘Fufufu.’

(I’m relieved. The atmosphere around Ryuji-kun instantly brightened.)

Tomohisa: ‘Fufu, in the end Ryuji’s special medicine is sweets.’

Part 4

ーAfter the end of the ceremony.ー

Tsubasa: ‘Everyone, good work! It was a really wonderful ceremony.’

Tomohisa: ‘Thank you. It’s been a while since we sang outside, so we also enjoyed it.’

Ryuji: ‘Yep. I enjoyed that kind of party for the first time in a while.’

Tomohisa: ‘And, there was also an unexpected surprise, no?’

Ryuji: ‘Yes, yes, definitely! I didn’t think I would be able to eat “that person’s” sweets.’

Tsubasa: ‘Uhm, “that person”…..? Is he an acquaintance of you two?’

Tomohisa: ‘To be honest, yes. The pastry chef, who was in charge of the sweets for the ceremony today, is someone we've been indebted to since we were children.’

Ryuji: ‘He’s the pastry chef purveyor to the Kitakado household and on parties or special events his sweets were always part of them.’

Tsubasa: ‘I understand.’

Ryuji: ‘Especially his macarons are masterpieces. During our Bambi time we both often asked him to make all kinds of sweets for us.’

Tomohisa: ‘Though they were mostly Ryuji’s requests.’

Ryuji: ‘Eh, was it so? Didn’t Tomo also want to eat things like Simmered Taro in Sweetened Soy Sauce* or asked for something different than sweets?’

Tomohisa: ‘Ahaha, that might be so. You remembered that well.’

Ryuji: ‘But all of them were delicious.’

Tsubasa: ‘Fufu, you do love him a lot.’

Tomohisa: ‘We will introduce him to Tsubasa next time.’

Tomohisa: ‘Before I forget, would you come to our apartment on our free day?’

Ryuji: ‘That sounds great! Because we were busy these days we weren’t able to visit the store, so we’ll ask him to make us lots of sweets ♪.’

Tomohisa: ‘Yeah, we will contact you.’

Part 5

ーA few days later. In the evening.ー

(The previous location dragged on, so I arrived later than the promised time unfortunately…..)

______

The doorbell rings.

Tomohisa: ‘Hello, Tsubasa. Come in.’

Tsubasa: ‘Hello! I am terribly sorry for my lateness.’

Tomohisa: ‘It’s fine. Now, come into the living room.’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes, excuse me for the intrusion.’

Tsubasa: ‘…..?’

(It smells sweet here…..)

Ryuji: ‘Ah, you finally came.’

Tsubasa: ‘I am sorry to have kept you waiting.’

Ryuji (sighs): ‘Really. I was getting tired of waiting.’

Ryuji (smiles): ‘Come on, sit down already!’

Tsubasa: ‘Y-Yes.’

(I wonder what’s wrong, Ryuji-kun is strangely in a good mood…..?)

Tsubasa: ‘Ryuji-kun, did something happen?’

Tomohisa: ‘Fufu, I wonder?’

Ryuji: ‘Tsubasa!’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes.’

Ryuji: ‘Open your mouth! Here, aaahh.’

Tsubasa: ‘Eh!? ….. Nhmm.’

Ryuji: ‘How is it? This cupcake is from the pastry chef’s store we talked about the other day. Delicious, right?’

Tsubasa: ‘Nn….., very delicious!’

Ryuji: ‘I know, right! There are also cookies and madeleines. Eat away.’

Tsubasa: ‘Thank you very much. But, why suddenly…..?’

Ryuji: ‘F-For no reason, really. I just bought them, because I was craving some sweets after I ate the ones at the ceremony last time!’

Tomohisa: ‘Oh, that’s weird? What I heard was surely to make them togeーー’

Ryuji (blushes): ‘Wait, Tomo! Don’t say unnecessary things.’

Tsubasa: ‘…..?’

Ryuji: ‘…..They are just a thank you….. for always taking care of all kinds of….. Things for us…..!’

Tsubasa: ‘! Th-Thank you very much…..! That makes me happy.’

Ryuji: ‘Ngh! I mean, Tsubasa might as well also eat them! It's me who wanted to eat them, that’s the main point here!’

Tsubasa: ‘Yes! But I am still happy!’

Tomohisa (winks): ‘Fufufu, then shall we have a tea party today?’

END

______________________

* Simmered Taro in Sweetened Soy Sauce (里芋の煮っころがし・さといものにっころがし): This took me some time to find since it’s a specific dish. Ryuji only used 煮っころがし (Sweetened Soy Sauce) actually, but Google gave me videos and images of the Taro version. It sounds a bit strange to me to only use the soy sauce part, so I included the full name of the dish.

-When We Are Alone- Draco malfoy x Female Reader

☼-🐍-☼

Request: Hi! Before anything, I just want to say your writing has been living rent free in my mind, like I'd literally just be washing the dishes and I'll smile like an idiot because I remember that one imagine hehe.

Can I request an imagine where Draco and Y/n are in a relationship, but they started off as friends in their friend group along with Pansy, Theo and Blaise. They like to keep it private but everybody knows they're together. But the thing is, reader is the one who isn't used to affection that's why she asked Draco to just act like normal friends when others are around which even reluctantly, he accepts.So when they're all alone, that's when they get lovey-dovey and the reader gets all blushy.

Anddddd this is optional--- if you want to make it angst. Sometimes Draco feels as if he's not important enough for her because she's so good at not showing her affections when with others so he tries to avoid her. Reader thought it was just normal because they're not always sweet and romantic. But one day, someone who kept flirting with her was trying to persuade her into a relationship and kept saying Draco and her didn't seem real at all but while they were talking they didn't know Draco was eavesdropping. He didn't want to meddle in yet because he's so curious to know what she thinks too BUT THEN THE READER LIKE CONFESSED ALL HER LOVE FOR DRACO TO THE GUY, SAYING THINGS LIKE YOU MAY NOT SEE ME ALWAYS CLINGING AROUND HIM BUT HE'S LIKE MY WHOLE WORLD or something hehe so like really fluffy after. Anyway, dear. It's alright if you reject this though hehe but thank you in advance and thank you for writing amazing stories. Ily 💖

Kody: Not me googling when is it okay to say i love you. What am i? A ROBOT!

House: Slytherin

Possible Triggers/Warnings: cursing, cormac mclaggen, insecure Draco, blaise and theo being cute as hell.

☼-🐍-☼

Six months ago

as you sat on the sofa of the common room you felt a cold chill run through you. Even in the dungeons it was still cold. To be fair, you were only wearing a black tank top and a pair of mens boxers. There comfy, don’t judge. You had been waiting for your friends to wake up in the common room.

the first two to come out were Blaise and Theo, holding hands, Theo was rubbing his eyes “Morning Y/n” Blaise smiles and you wave to him. Blaise sits on the loveseat and pulls Theo into in his lap who just lays his head on his chest and closes his eyes.

you smile slightly at them. They were so cute together. You wonder what it was like being in a relationship. In all 17 years of your life you had never once been with somebody romantically. No one seemed to like you in that way. You longed for somebody to love and cherish you. What a childish dream now.

“Sup bitches” and there was Pansy, she was wearing what looked liked Ginny’s Quidditch sweater. “Hey Pans” you say as she sits down on the floor in front of the sofa “Is Theo sleeping again?” Pansy says quite loudly, causing Blaise to hush her “Yes he is. So tone it down” he spoke

Pansy held her hands up in surrender, choking back a laugh “Okay sorry. Anyway, Where’s Draco? He’s usually up first. Think he overslept?” she says, leaning back against the sofa you sat on. “Think? I know he overslept. I snuck into his room to get an extra pillow for Theo and he was still awake”

Blaise laughs lightly, making Pansy’s eyes go wide “What time was it?” she asked. “three am in the morning” he replies. You look over at him and tilt your head “Did you ask why?” you ask. Blaise tenses up a bit before answering “Um- He just told me to shove off. You know Draco. He’s cranky when tired.”

you nod slowly. Seemed like Draco enough. “Oh okay. I’m going to check up on him. Can one of you guys bring breakfast here?” you ask, climbing off the couch and stepping onto the cold floor. Pansy raises her hand and gives you a thumbs up “I’ll do it!- Oh shit sorry” she says and lowers her voice instantly.

Blaise shoots her a glare as Theo stirs in his arms. You chuckle before walking out the common room and into the boys hall, leaving the three Slytherins alone. As Pansy watches you leave she turns to Blaise “’He told me to shove off’? Really? That’s the best you could up with?”

Blaise rolls his eyes as he waves his hand around “What was i supposed to say? Yeah Draco was up all night because he can’t stop thinking about you. Oh also everytime he sleeps he has dreams about you, cause that was the best option Pans” he huffs. Pansy groans before walking out the common room.

back to you

as you walked your mind wandered to Draco himself. You hoped he had been taking care of himself. He was your best friend and you wanted the best for him or maybe you told yourself that to convince yourself that you didn’t have a crush on him. You had been friends with Draco since you came to Hogwarts.

feelings never really developed until last year and it’s like you finally saw him. The little things he did like grab your hand randomly or always fixing your hair became less platonic for you. A weird feeling would invade your stomach and your face would feel hot.

it was strange because you had never felt this way about anyone. Especially Draco. You decided to not tell him in fear that he would reject you and it would break up your friend group. You liked him, but you loved your friends and you weren’t about to let some feelings ruin your friendships.

soon enough you were at Draco’s door. Please be wearing a shirt. Please be wearing a shirt. You knock twice and are surprised as the door pushes open. Had Blaise forgot to close it when he left Draco’s room the room the previous night? You slowly push the door open to see Draco laying in bed.

as you walk in you close the door, being careful with your steps. You tip toe over to his bed, the wooden floor creaking under your feet every couple seconds. You didn’t want to be loud and wake him up in a rude manner. Finally reaching him, you place your hand on his shoulder and gently shake it.

“Draco, it’s time to get up. We have breakfast out in the common room and-” Draco grabs your hand and pulls you into the bed. You fall on your back as Draco holds your arm above you head, hovering over you. Your face heated up like all the times before, feeling small under his gaze.

as his grey eyes scanned over you he sighs deeply “What’re doing in here?” he asked, weirdly casual. “P- Pansy’s getting breakfast and i wanted to make sure you ate. Why did you throw me on your bed?” you fired back with a question of your own. “I was having a dream. Thought i was till in it when i woke up” he says, oddly casual again.

you make an ‘O’ shape with your mouth and nod “Okay. What happened to cause this?” you gesture to the situation by tugging your hand in his firm grip. He seemed to tense at your question before his head dropped in what seemed like shame “I’m sorry for this” he spoke.

okay, now you were extra confused. “Sorry for what-” then it happened. His cold lips crashed down onto yours in a swift motion leaving you frozen in shock. Oh Merlin. What do you do?! You like him right? and this means he might like you, right? So kiss him you fool!

your mind finally stopped debating and you leaned into the kiss, trying to kiss him back. It was way more easy then you imagined. After a couple seconds more you both pulled away from the kiss. Both panting to get air into your lungs. After that makeout session you both talked, for hours.

Draco admitted his feelings for you and you did the same. Turns out you were wrong, it didn’t ruin your guys friendship in the slightest. Blaise, Theo, and Pansy thought it was adorable and were really happy for you both. It was a relief really that everything turned out well. You were Draco Malfoy’s girlfriend.

☼-🐍-☼

Present

the day was slowly coming to an end as you and your friends ate dinner. You feel Draco’s hand on yours under the table and smile lightly. At least no one could see. You didn’t care much for public displays of affection. You didn’t even know how to act like a couple in public, really.

you expressed these feelings with Draco and he agreed, not wanting you to be uncomfortable. So behind closed doors you two were the cutest you could be. “Well, i’m done. How ‘bout you Y/n” Draco turns his head to face you as you place the silver fork on the wooden table. “Yeah i’m finished”

Draco gets up from his seat and holds out his hand for you to help you get up. You take his hand and he helps you out of your seat. You let go as you both begin to walk out the dining hall. “They both know that they left us right?” Pansy asked, watching the couple walk away.

Theo chuckles as he takes a bite of a muffin he was eating “I think it’s cute that Draco just wants her all to himself” he coos, leaning his head on Blaises shoulder. Blaise nods in agreement with his boyfriend “I wonder what Y/n’s like behind closed doors considering she barely acts like his girlfriend”

Theo wacks Blaise shoulder with a offended look “Hey! How she deals with her emotions is no ones business but her’s. Bad Blaise. No kisses” he pouts. Blaise just blinked mindlessly before grinning “Okay, fine. No kisses” he says, watching as Theo’s pout turned into a frown “No, wait. I want kisses”

☼-🐍-☼

after walking out both you and Draco went into his dorm where you were now cuddling on his bed. “Hm. Your so warm” Draco hums as he digs his head into the crook of your neck. Your face heats up and you let out an embarrassed whine “Draco” you could practically feel his smirk.

“darling don’t say my name that way” he speaks in a strained tone as he wraps his arm around your waist, pulling you close to him. Butterflies erupted in your stomach at his voice. Draco was an immense tease. You couldn’t help but smile though. “I’m sorry” you push out your bottom lip in a pout.

Draco removes his head from your neck to look at your face, smirk still on his face. “Don’t pout. I like the way you smile when we are alone.” he spoke, his hand reaching up to grace over your cheek and push a strand of hair away from your face. You crack a small smile and so does he “There it is”

he leans in a pecks your lips gently “So beautiful” and he continues to whisper praises to you as he kisses each part of your face. Not even stopping once you began to laugh from the ticklish feeling. “Draco! stop!” you say through fits of laughter. You hear him chuckle evilly, which wasn’t good at all.

after a couple minutes he stops “Tired?” he asked, hovering over you with a loving smile on his face. You nod slowly, your face a deep shade of pink. he leans down and presses a kiss to your forehead “Want to sleep in my room tonight?” he asked, since you never had before.

“I don’t mind” you spoke in a whisper. He smiled brightly as he lifts off his wand and with a wave the lights turn off. He shuffles around to grab the top of his black silk blanket and place it over the both of your bodies. You turn to lay on your side, facing the wall. A position you found comfortable.

Draco lays behind her, also on his side. His chest was pressed against your back while his arm was wrapped around you. He presses one final kiss to your temple before closing his eyes, whispering a goodnight. It was the first time the both of you slept in the same bed and you liked it.

☼-🐍-☼

Two Weeks Later

as much as Draco cared for you, his demons sometimes got the best of him. The nagging thought in the back of his head telling him he was nothing to you just became louder and louder. It didn’t help that you were perfect at not showing your feelings for him in public.

we all have our days where we let our demons control our thoughts and this was one of them for Draco. He woke up in a depressed and angered state and decided that seeing you today was just to much for him. So he planned to ignore you all day and hide away in his dorm after.

for you it was just a normal day. Being romantic with Draco in public was just something that never happened, so when he purposely ignored you, you saw nothing strange about it. You did begin to question the almost dirty looks he gave you or when you went up to him to ask him something and he just walked away.

in the middle of the day you were in potions class. What was strange was that when you walked in Draco wasn’t in his seat, which was next to you. Instead he was sitting next to Blaise, which also meant that you were going to have to partner up with Cormac Mclaggen. Ew.

once Snape gave you your assignment you collected the ingredients and made your way back to your desk. “Hi i’m Cormac by the way” the Gryffindor boy spoke. You look at him and smile politely “Y/n” you said before placing the moonstone into a mortar and pestle to ground it up.

he looks at the various ingredients and smiles shyly “I wasn’t listening to Snape. What are we making again?” of course. “A draught of peace potion. Can you put in the syrup of hellebore for me?” you ask and he nos quickly before picking it up. He pours a few drops as instructed and begins to stir it.

After the moonstone is crushed you pour it into the cauldron and he stirs that up as well “Wow, your like really good at potions” he spoke and you nod once “It’s just easy for me i guess” you shrug your shoulders. “Wow, smart and beautiful. Your quite a catch Y/n” he smirks lightly, which rubs you the wrong way

you just give him a half smile before continuing to ground up porcupine quills and a unicorn horn. In the end. You got the best potion and were rewarded a small vile of a draught of peace. You were happy you passed, but were not please when Cormac wrapped his arm around you, but you pushed it off.

☼-🐍-☼

after class you were walking outside to make your way to Hagrid’s hut to help care for buckbeak when you hear somebody shouting your name “Y/n!” you turn around and watch as Cormac runs up to you “Yes?” you say, stopping in your tracks. “I wanted you to have this” he says and reaches into his robe.

Draco was walking outside to catch his breath. Seeing Cormac drool over you and you doing nothing about it was eating up outside and he needed some fresh air before he blew up and beat the living shit out of Cormac. That’s when he heard you and the Gryffindor and decided to listen in and watch behind a pillar.

Cormac pulls out the draught of peace and hands it to you. You smile kindly and take it from his hands “Thank you” he smiles back “So i was wondering. Would you like to go out with me sometimes?” he asked. Well shit. You sigh deeply and shake your head “I’m sorry, but i already have a boyfriend Cormac”

his face drops “Who?” he asked in a slightly irritated voice, which catches you off guard. “Um Draco Malfoy?” you said, taking a step back. He clicks his tongue as a bitter laugh comes from his mouth “Draco Malfoy? You two may act like best friends, but not lovers”

you took slight offense to that, but it was true. You didn’t like pda because you didn’t have the slightest clue on how to be a public couple. But screw this guy. “Excuse me? What i do with Draco in public is none of your concern Cormac” you go to storm off when he grabs your arm, forcing you back.

“If your lying to play hard to get it worked. Why would Malfoy ever go out with someone who doesn’t even pay attention to him during the day” his smirk very prominent and very gross. You rip your arm away from him, causing him to stumble a bit.

“You have no right to say that to me! Just because i am not hanging off of him every second of every day does not me i don’t cherish him! He’s everything to me and i don’t deserve him at all! and i just realized that he may leave me today or tomorrow or in a hour! and i can’t believe it took me this long to realize that i’m so hopelessly in love with him. Nonetheless, fuck you, you fucking pervert!”

your words were laced with venom, leaving the Gryffindor shocked. You pulled your wand out and hold his against his neck “Never, ever touch me or i’ll end you. Understand me?” you whisper, your face close to his. His eyes widen in fear before nodding quickly. “Then go!” you shout.

he falls back and you watch as he struggles to get up before running away. That’s why Draco had been ignoring you, because he doesn’t think you love him. Tears flowed down your face, sobs wracking throughout your body. You were going to lose him and it was all your fault.

you drop your wand to wipe your face from the overflowing of warm tears. As you go to drop to your knees so you could cry on the floor, arms wrap around your waist and in fear of it being Cormac you open your eyes to see Draco, crying? “Draco?” you choke out.

he cracks a smile and nods “Yeah” he says and reaches up to wipe a tear running down your cheek. Your eyes widen in realization “You heard all of that didn’t you. Draco i’m so sorry-” he hushes you and pulls you into a hug “Don’t. I let my insecurities get the best of me. Hearing you say you love me was enough to bring me back to reality and that i’m going to murder Mclaggen”

you laugh quietly and sniffle “I do love you and i want you to know that i’m going to show you more public affection from now on” you nod sternly. He pulls away from the hug, shaking his head “Love, you don’t have to do that” he says. You wave you head, shaking your head.

“I want everyone to know that i’m yours and you are mine, because if a girl ever did that to you. I’d kill her” this time Draco laughs, a grin forming on his face “I think i’m a bad influence. You’re starting to sound like me” you smile and reach up to grab his face “I love you Draco” you speak.

you lean your forehead against his watching his smile grow wider “I love you too Y/n. To the moon and back and i’ll never forget it again” he presses a kiss to your lips, one that you return quickly. It was passionate and slightly sloppy due to the emotions running high between both of you.

you reach behind his neck to tug at the platinum blond locks, a groan slipping past his lips. Draco pulls away, panting heavily “Holy shit you need to kiss me like that more often” he smiled widely. You chuckle and lean in to kiss him again, but he stops you “What?” you say, but he pecks your lips quickly. “I love you and we can continue this later in my dorm preferably, but i have Gryffindor to 'talk to’”

your eyes widen as he lets go of you and pulls out his wand. He begins to walk back into the school. You lean down and collect your wand before running to catch up with him “Draco! You can not kill Cormac!” you shout and he smirks. “I’m just going to talk to him Y/n” he spoke.

“With your wand!?”

title: catch up now?

× pairing: Idol!Jungkook x Interviewer!Reader, old friends from highschool kinda stuff, abandoned but maybe rediscovered love on both sides.

× summary: Three years are a long time. In three years, many things can and will change. But three years hadn’t been quite enough to change how two people feel about each other.

× warnings: a little teeny bit angsty but it’s nothing, really. Mainly fluff, some flustered, overly eager Gguk and old memories coming up.

× wordcount: 2k

× a/n: Not gonna lie, this might be one of my favourite pieces I've ever written. I really hope you enjoy this too! it’s somehow inspired by ‘Love Maze’ (BTS) and also ‘50 Proof’ (eaJ). Will probably not have a pt.2

When he had read the name of the interview host - or hostess more like - Jungkook had already felt the familiar tingle in the pit of his stomach that he had thought had disappeared over the course of time. Yet, he wasn’t surprised that it was still there.

He had however not dared to hope that it could actually be you, there sure were other people called (Y/N) (Y/L/N), who has pursued their dream of becoming an interviewer, media person, whatnot. He didn’t even know if you had actually graduated uni and made it in the job, hence he hadn’t seen any of you in about four years of him debuting now. He had occasionally checked out your Instagram or Twitter, yet he shied away from following you on any social media platform. You weren’t really public about your work or personal life on both, you mainly retweeted stuff (he found out about your love for Bingsu and Makgeolli ice cream like that) and posted a few selfies or landscapes. He hoped that you had been able to pursue your dream of traveling around for a bit, in South Korea and outside of it. Though again, he didn’t know.

Jimin was seated right in front of him and Jungkook couldn’t help but nervously play with his hyungs honey blond dyed hair. Jimin chuckled surprised yet amused about his open display of nervousness and turned around slowly.

“Everything okay, Jungkook-ah? You seem more nervous than usually.” He remarked, making Namjoon look over to the maknae in wonder. “He does, right? I thought so too. Did something happen?” Jungkook only shook his head.

Not yet, he thought to himself.

The cameras around them started to blink all at once, the light has been set up correctly and the camera and sound team had settled down around them in the dark. Manager and publicists stood somewhere in the back, swallowed up by the dark. The only person that was missing still, was you. Or the person called (Y/N) (Y/L/N), Jungkook tried to tell himself.

Suddenly there was a soft laugh from somewhere off the scenes and his heart tripped over its own beat and finally, finally, you stepped into the light.

You looked pretty as ever, grown into your features entirely, like a lotus flower finally in full bloom. Jungkook had to swallow dry. The light coral red of your lip balm complimented your skin and the subtle almost invisible make up you wore, accentuated your already beautiful features even more. You hadn’t changed your hair much, but it was a bit longer and looked so soft in the bright light. His eyes almost subconsciously darted to your fingers, searching for evidence of a possible relationship. He was almost ashamed how quickly he ended up thinking about this, his own boldness making him even more flustered. (There was no formal looking ring on your ringfinger though, to his relief.)

There was a warm smile on your lips as you bowed deeply to them all, greeting them respectfully. The boys returned your greeting immediately and a bunch of annyeong haseyo-s sounded through the studio. Jungkook felt Namjoon look over at him again, a piercing gaze Jungkook knew he wouldn’t be able to withstand if he met it. So he just kept looking at everything but Namjoon...not that this was hard to do when you were right in front of him.

“Thank you so much for being here with us.” You said with a smile, looking at everyone with the same look of respect and polite distance. Like you were supposed to, at work, as a professional. Like you didn't know them personally. Everyone, including Jungkook.

He felt his heart drop to his stomach. Could it be that you...forgot about him? It couldn’t really be, right? How would you actually be able to, you really...in this moment your eyes crossed again and something flickered in your eyes, a facade crumbled for a few seconds only. It was an amused twinkle, like a cheeky wink and a minimal curl of your lips.

Acknowledgement.

And Jungkook’s heart did multiple flips, breath caught in his throat and eyes widened.

You had started with the questions, keeping the conversation light and flowing. The vibe in the room was comfortable and built up on mutual respect - yet Jungkook felt as if he was sitting on red-hot needles. He wanted to talk to you, ask about how you had been, what you were doing (if you had a boyfriend) if you were happy, if you got a cat, how your mother’s little business was going (he’d anonymously purchased countless items, to support your family), if your favourite colour still was cyan blue and your still religiously bought Pajeon and Makgeolli on rainy days, if you ever spent a second of your day thinking of him (because he did).

Him, your somewhat ex-best friend from highschool, him, the one you spent hours talking to in the ungodly hours of the morning, him who you had lost your first kiss to (though lost wasn’t the right word: you gave it to him more like). Him who you had poked fun of when the first girl approached him in his Rookie days and he’d been flustered to no end.

Him, who had promised to you that he wouldn’t abandon your friendship and yet the two of you drifted apart anyways.

Not for the lack of trying on either side though. Jungkook’s schedule had just become even fuller, his nights shorter, training longer and fans more obsessive. And you had seen each other less often, greetings were shorter and late night talks turned into good night wishes over text quicker.

You on your part weren’t mad, a little disappointed maybe. Sad for sure, but not mad. After all, you had expected it to turn out like that. So had the rest of your little circle, Haneul, Hwang, Kyong and Myunghee. Whilst the five of you had supported Jungkook on his journey with all you’ve got, you all tried to overcome the obvious pain of him drifting off.

Some (mainly Hwan and Kyong) with working harder in school for example. You did that too, but sometimes you also partied a little harder, were awake at three AM a little more often, missed him a lot more. It hurt letting someone you love go.

Jungkook and you had always been a bit...closer. Why you didn’t know, how you couldn’t possibly explain. But you were and him rising into the heights and new dimensions of being an idol destroyed this almost completely. This strange world of fame, those walls of flashing cameras, the flow of expensive goods and seas of screaming people, that was his world. He was a star, figuratively and somewhat literally. He shone more radiant, higher, longer, prettier and too bright for an innocent, young love to coexist.

So you stayed behind, soon having lost his number due to him having to change it, his contact information soon had less to say than what you could find on the internet.

His new hair colour? Well, you could google it. Height? Current weight? Several fan sights knew the answer. Achievements? The internet again.

It was strange, ridiculous to some extent. And it hurt. But you couldn’t blame him, so you never did.

⋄

When you had heard that you would be interviewing BTS last week you could help but feel scared. You hadn’t seen him face to face for three or so years, three years with no FaceTime, texting, three years of not seeing his bunny smile, smiled just for you.

And when you had seen him again, laid eyes on him for the first time in thirty-five months, you realised that nothing you ever felt for him had faded away. It was all the same again, your heart still jumped in your chest and your stomach still fluttered whenever he did as much as breathing. The only thing that had changed was his height and him having had the biggest glow up you had witnessed in your life, yours included – though this Jungkook would disagree vehemently.

This Jungkook who got pulled out of his thoughts and memories almost violently, as you directed a first question at him only.

“I…” he started, gulping hardly, having forgotten the question already halfway.

“Sorry I can’t – how have you been?” you stopped shortly, stunned and a tad confused at first. You hadn’t expected him to be so bold. Or clumsy, for that matter. Yet you couldn’t help but giggle, and all the unsaid words and ignored truths between the two of you disappeared into smoke, taking all tension with them. Just like that.

“I’ve been fine, Gukie. Busy. Long-time no see, hm. How about you?” somewhere behind the cameras someone dropped a pen and there were multiple gasps being heard. The rest of the bangtan boys didn’t look any better; Jimin had his mouth open, Taehyung was looking back and forth between the two of you, Yoongi just froze, Jin and Hoseok had clasped their hands in front of their mouths and Namjoon just looked like someone poured a bucket of ice water over his head.

But Jungkook? Jungkook was smiling widely, his bunny smile, smiled just for you.

“Busy too. Yes, very long time no see.” He replied sheepishly, a small laugh escaping his lips as he looked around the dead silent studio. “Why…how do you know each other?” Yoongi finally asked, eyes snapping back and forth between the two of you.

“Well I guess we have to tell them now. We know each other from back in Highschool. We were pretty close friends back then.” You explained softly, giving him a small smile. Jungkook nodded quickly. “My apologies. I didn’t wanted to completely ruin the interview but…I haven’t seen you in three or so years. Sorry.” You waved it off. “It’s okay, Jungkook. We will catch up later, alright?” Jungkook nodded, making the mistake of looking over to Namjoon, who looked like he finally understood everything. “Is that why you were so…never mind.” He ended in a mumble and Jungkook was glad he did.

⋄

The second the interview was officially finished and all the cameras shut off, Jungkook was on his feet and approaching you. He didn’t even care about formalities anymore as he just wrapped his arms around you and pulled you into a tight hug.

The first thing he noticed was that he couldn’t nestle his face in the crook of your neck as easy as he had been able to do in high-school. The second thing was that you had changed your perfume into something more flowery and fresh. The third thing he noticed was how much he liked having you in his arms again, especially because he could now rest his head on top of yours.

The first thing you noticed was how broad your Kookie had become. Broad and tall and firm everywhere. The second thing you noticed was how he smelled more expensive, faintly musky but still very much like Jungkook. A scent you could pick out from a thousand, unique and everything you loved. The third thing you noticed was how familiar and how looked after you felt in his arms, how protected from every harm. You had missed this feeling.

“Aigoo, Junkookie!” Jin yelled from behind, causing you to chuckle embarrassed and trying to break the hug. But Jungkook simply tightened his arms around you, having no intentions of letting you go any time soon.

“Just ignore them. They’ll leave, eventually.” His voice was muffled by the skin on your neck, since he had now buried his face there, taking deep breaths.

“And we?” you asked with a small laugh, not moving either. “We stay. We catch up. Got a lot of that to do.” Sounded good enough to you…just that you had expected them to make a bee-line for the exit after the cameras cut due to their busy schedule.

“Catch up now?” you asked after a few seconds of him still having his arms around you, unmoving. The young man shook his head.

“No…not right now.” He took a deep breath, hiding his face in the crook of your neck, mumbling against your skin and the fabric of your blouse.

“In five minutes. Let me just hold you for a little while, you…you have no idea how much I missed you.”

If he only knew.
