[good-beanswrites]

hiihiii i love the way u write shidou smmmm so if ur requests r still open id like something with shidou + lies <3

Hellooo thank you!! Shidou zoomed his way into my favorites and I really enjoy writing him, haha! Here's a bit of him hanging with the smoking group T1

The problem with lying, Shidou had found, is that you end up fooling everyone involved. If you spend time trying to deceive someone, the people close to you will also believe it. If you continue, it will affect all those in proximity. And, if you do it for long enough, you’ll start to deceive yourself. 

Shidou had certainly lost track of his lies for a while. Right before it had all come crashing down around him, he’d almost believed all the beautiful tales of hope and health he’d been spreading. He’d almost seen the world as the place he’d been describing. 

And then the truth hit him; it crushed him. Seeing all the blood on his hands, he’d tried to swear the whole thing off in what little time he had left in this life. But, like his other habits, it was a difficult one to break. 

He exhaled smoke into the room, listening to Mikoto go on about the busy days of his office job. Shidou was concerned how he still spoke about everything as if he’d be heading right back after all this. 

He wanted nothing more than to sit him down for an examination. There were several reasons he may not remember his crime -- it was most likely the emotional shock, but Shidou couldn’t rule out the possibility of a head injury, an illness, a seizure, a stroke, or even it being a side effect of whatever drugs Milgram must have given the prisoners when bringing them here. It took everything in him to let Mikoto be. After all, no one was going to request help from a “killer doctor,” and he didn’t have any of his usual equipment. 

So he just stood and smoked in silence. 

“What about you?” Kazui asked. “My line of work definitely stressed me out, too. But I don’t think I’ve seen you bat an eye at anything since coming here.” He nudged Shidou. “Are you just as cool under pressure as those movie doctors?”

Shidou’s lips angled to a smile. “I suppose so. Though, I believe they look calm because they’re meant to appear perfectly competent. I’m calm so that patients don’t realize I am imperfect.” 

Was that all he was, when he killed those people? Just ‘imperfect’?

Seeing the way Mikoto’s eyebrows shot up, he clarified, “I’m very competent, mind you. But no doctor is perfect. Many patients will panic if you show even the slightest sign of doubt.”

He teased, “so you just lie to everyone all day? Damn, remind me to watch out the next time I go in for a checkup.”

“No, it isn’t like that.” Wasn’t it? 

The other two continued the conversation, but Shidou grew quiet. Was that something else he’d started to believe? Another thing he’d convinced himself was normal when, in fact, it was very, very wrong?

“I get that. Confidence is really important when dealing with dangerous situations.”

“Heh, I’ve definitely put up a bit of an act around here for some of the younger prisoners. I think it’s been helping, they seem calmer from when this all started.”

That’s right -- his goal was always to help, to calm. He watched Mikoto rub his temple absently, and knew another headache was approaching and knew what to do for it. He’d helped Haruka get over a cold the past week. He and Kotoko had discussed nutrition tips the other day. He was still doing good. The smile that he put up for the others was still doing good. 

“Well, I’m glad we’ve got a professional around here.” Kazui gestured his cigarette to Shidou, snapping him away from his thoughts. “Nothing against the guard, but it’s nice to have someone like you who can help me look out for everyone.”

“Yeah, feel better about being here already!” Mikoto slung an arm around him. The boy's expression showed he was trying to appear in on some joke. “So, doc, you think that all of us are getting out of this crazy place in one piece?”

Shidou wanted to warn him the situation was more serious than he knew. Milgram was not a big joke. He was not a man to be trusted. He was not a man to be forgiven.

But old habits die hard. 

“Oh, I'm sure of it.”

#milgram #shidou kirisaki #mikoto kayano #thank you for the request ahh!! i tried to peek into his mind a bit more -- hes got a lot going on in there ough... #its neat that he and kazui are such different flavors of liars #kazui is hiding himself out of fear - always painfully aware of the truth #but shidou lies to make others happy and help more people and to save more lives - all the while believing it a bit himself #many of the other prisoners reached the end of their patience with their lies/what they were hiding. they finally broke. #but shidous final murder happened because he was completely consumed by his own lie #and now - despite having suicide-level guilt over it - hes still helping people and needing to put up those old masks #hes just so !!!! *shakes him violently* #on another note he strikes me as the type to be constantly noticing things and itching to help #everyones kinda sure that mikotos trauma is repressing his memory but shidou is the only one who it Really bothers #anyway i hope you enjoy! #drabbles

one thing i like about the new job is that public service really drives home how diverse and interesting any random sample of people actually is. you kind of can't keep thinking that there's one single way in which ordinary life typically goes when you're dropped into the middle of other people's lives on a daily basis. like within two weeks at a public service job in the most boring town imaginable someone will come in and be like hi i'm blind, can i have some adjustments for my advanced degree. hi my grandmother died, can i have an extension. hi i moved here from taiwan literally two months ago and misunderstood some instructions, can i repeat this process. hi i'm competing at the olympics, can i put my studies on hold.

there's just this certain kind of rhetoric that wants to make you belive that A Normal Person is this or that and their life goes this or that way, when really there's no limit to the chaos of human experience or to the endlessly new-shuffled variations of Circumstances and i'd defy anyone who believes otherwise to keep believing it after one day in public service

#the reason this is on my mind sm is bc i've lately been encountering the ''who is this even for'' argument a lot #from people who think certain adjustments are for ''fringe groups'' or whatever #that they believe don't really involve anyone of any note and aren't a good use of public resources #& before this job i never realized that statements like that are someone showing you their shitty qualifications? #like ok you don't know people then. you've never bothered to encounter People As People. you're in a deliberate bubble. cool #that's all i need to know abt your suitedness to comment on public interests lol #it'd be so convenient for them too. sooo easy to believe that ppl fit into neat little groups of The Rule and The Exception respectively #and therefore groups they can consider worthy of their service and groups that aren't #like i know that as a conservative you want to think of a theology student and a trans student as separate entities. #however over here in reality that's the same guy :') cope ig. hope this helps #it's about think of others by mahmoud darwish. you guys get it

Does monster adam have any friends at all that guy seems so lonely

He did!

Or. used to.

You see, one, there was an incident in his past where he. kinda. sorta. turned into a werewolf in front of the rest of the BPS, being where he lost Jonah as a "friend" (using the term loosely, considering Adam hated Jonah even before this.) Jonah left the BPS soon after, though Sarah. still gave Adam the benefit of the doubt, considering how he's human most of the time, and can't. really. control the fact that he's a werewolf. things happen, right?

However. A few months later, Sarah gets the news that. Evelin was found dead outside of Adam's place. She starts getting suspicions, considering her date of death was on a full moon, but Adam denies anything and gets super defensive. Sarah finds out the truth not too long after that though, and. Adam finally admits it, but. blames it on Evelin, saying "I told her to leave but she didn't listen. it wasn't my fault she was being stupid."

That's when Adam lost Sarah too.

what’s the story behind your hot wheels pt cruiser (RIP 🕊🙏🏻😔)?

we spent $3000 within a single week, replacing the entire cooling system, only for it to overheat and cause irreparable damage anyway.

:( she is being scrapped tomorrow morning and i am very very very very sad about it

#or if by 'story behind it' you mean why do i have this car #the car i had before the cruiser got stolen from a khols parking lot while i was there spending 8 consecutive hours refolding levis #as i was to do during that era of my life #and so i needed a new car and my mom saw this one being sold online and clearly we needed that one #a guy was selling it because it belonged to his recently deceased wife #her name was tracy and she loved bigfoot. there was a huge collection of bigfoot stuff in their house when we went to go pick it up #there was a bigfoot air freshener in the car too. i never took it off felt disrespectful. #sorry i trashed your car tracy #actually on a related note every previous owner of this car is dead #which i think was around 3 or 4 people according to the guy who sold it to us #deaths completely unrelated to the car though he lost his wife to cancer. i dont think the pt cruiser had any malignant energy. #the guy selling the car was a mailman thats not very relevant but i just think its neat. i love mail

*looks at your tags* nice, nice—

PROSTETIC HEART?????

Sometimes you have an idea so so wild but with so much interesting thematic potential that you then have no choice but to try and figure out how to make it work 🤷‍♀️

Anyway 💅 still working on the how but basically the AU is as described: Branch's fleshy magic Troll heart is gone and in its place is a prosthetic one he made himself. Smth smth a Troll's music is their magic and their magic is their music and smth smth you can remove a Troll's magic by removing their heart (assuming they survive, which they normally wouldn't, but Branch is nice and insane and good at clinging onto life like that). So the AU focuses on the issues that arise from having a heart cobbled together from the materials he could find and the sort of disconnect from the world around him due to the loss of the heart he was born with. Again it doesn't make much sense but it's fun to think about so 🤷‍♀️

#ask zaz #beating heart au #??? maybe???? #anyway. still working out details but branch having to put extra effort into learning notes and dance choreo compared to other trolls #bc that stuff no longer comes naturally to him #and smth smth his singing sounding ''empty'' even when he hits every note perfectly bc. well. his body can't produce its own magic #his music doesn't affect the world around him the way other trolls' music does. he can't summon backing tracks and backup singers #from the flora and fauna #does poppy care? no that's her boyfie #also smth smth emotional regulation and how having a prosthetic heart would affect branch in that regard #yes i know the heart doesn't do that kinda thing irl but like. these are trolls i can get funky with their biology if i wanna #current idea for how branch loses his heart does involve a degree of self harm tho :[[[ i still need to refine it tho so who knows #but also. the thematic potential of branch cutting out his own heart‚ regardless of the reason‚‚‚ oughhhhhhh #idk if this au is all that interesting to anyone but me but idk i think it could be neat

quick sketch of my best friends clark kent and superman

[image description: two pencil portraits of clark kent (also known as superman) from dc. the first drawing is him as clark kent while the second is him as superman. he is smiling in both portraits. /end description]

#clark kent #superman #dc #kal-el #<= i think that's his kryptonian name but i might be wrong don't correct me <3 #oh look - a star! #made these designs up but i do think superman is one of those designs where it's like. Iconique. no notes <3 #you don't stray very far because you don't need to <3 #i don't keep up with the dc universe by the way i just like the idea of superman i've built up in my head <3 #like a genuinely nice guy with superpowers <3 who's also jewish and bisexual <3 #i don't think i've read any superman-centric comics. i've read the Big dc comics like the killing joke and the dark knight returns and #swamp thing the original one. i'm actually reading the first comic where superman appears right now actually <3 #i like how instead of flying he used to jump and run i like seeing little quirks that come up when a character premieres and they're trying #to figure out what works and what doesn't that's neat to me <3 #anyways they should stop having gritty movies where superman is mean because power corrupts or what the fuck ever. #just make him a good guy like a genuinely good person maybe it won't make a good movie for some people. i'll have a great time though <3 #maybe i'm just behind on Superman Lore. i don't know i don't watch movies or shows or read books <3 (exaggerating for comedic effect)

I was confused about what the fuck Super Senses meant. NGL still am despite reading the notes on them.

(Muffled Screaming) WHY

Neat, sounds like a great QOL improvement TBH. I've been annoyed that I have to switch between PvP and single player sets so much.

Tang Xuan bounties sweet!!! Now do Li Ling. Also, skin details!

Genshin Style pity! Fun. (Idk if games other than genshin do the same guarantee but whatever)

Idk what the probability stuff means but nice it's 100 pulls now. Also wonder why those 4 espers are excluded.

Neat! Anyways the competition for Li Ling skin will be a bloodbath I predict. Also is the name an apex legends reference??

Neato! Tower 45 might kill me.

(Screaming, much less muffled) WHY.

CLARA NERF CLARA NERF CLARA NERF I MANIFESTED THIS AND IT CAME TO ME. YES YES YES.

I think it’s more like how light world time flows to the dark world. As in the supply closet definitely existed before the abandoned classroom was a thing so that’s why it might be considered the first. The other two fountains were built later in the town’s history, but are still pretty old. That’s my theory anyway.

oh so like. a dark world has existed as long as the light world's corresponding location has existed? so likeeee: cyber world came into existence once the computer lab was built, and queen's reign began when her light world counterpart was taken out of the old classroom after alvin retired/passed away and was moved to the computer lab. (because that is totally what happened. i know it.)

that's a really interesting idea and it makes a lot of sense and i really like it!!!! files it away in my brain forever. but honestly, taking it into consideration, i'd be more inclined to say that the abandoned classroom has existed as long as the school has, because it was part of the original building plans, thus making it older - while the supply closet could have been built in literally any time. 🤔 or, Brought In. it's kind of hard to tell, but the supply closet doesn't look like a built in part of the school. it looks like a portable closet

[ID: the hallway supply closet followed by an image of the closet in the abandoned classroom. end ID.]

see how the top kinda looks like, 3d almost? implying that it's not actually two double doors built into the wall, but a portable closet that someone shoved there. in that. hole in the wall. (????????)

anyway. either way as far as the "which fountain thing came first" debate goes, i like this thought a lot!! it definitely works. thank you for sharing! :)

#on a similar note shortly after i published the last ask i started thinking that like. #maybe darkners only start existing if a lightner - or several lightners - develops an attachment to an object #or like. memories and feelings of nostalgia are imparted unto the object thus giving it 'Life.' #which would help to explain why there's Nothing alive in the closet dark world except ralsei who is probably kris's headband #an object with a lot of personal meaning and memories and deep emotions attached to it. and that's probably why ralsei seems so powerful #thinking about it this way ties A LOT into deltarune's themes and i really like it actually + what you suggested here !! #it's still interesting that we're sealing every fountain and removing every beloved childhood object and bringing them to castle town #all of this power feeding into a single fountain seems like it would make it Larger and eventually consume the world so...??? #but. BUT the neat thing is. we don't have to look at it from that negative dark perspective :) BECAUSE #these are all objects that mean a lot to each of the lightners and mostly the kids. these are objects that are full of love and light #so bringing them together and concentrating all of that love-based power into one spot. that might just be what the world needs to be saved #and that's why i'm now leaning in this direction :) because that's how utdr always works at the end. #mailbox #hehe i love conversations and thinking and coming up with new conclusions based on the ideas everyone proposes <33

forgot to make a post sooner afterwards but!! went to my first pride yesterday (technically 2 days ago its past midnight but shh) and i think the absolute strangest part of the experience was when i got home i took a nap

#/g #just me rambling again #frogs down bad #i went w my bf and!! it was really fun! we saw one of our friends there too for a lil bit and a few people from our school #(also i wanna note my school had a stand we literally took so long to find it but a teacher i really like was running it! so we said hi) #it was a lot of people n hot out n a lot of walking around but it was fun i think! #it was neat #i didnt end up buying anything but at one place that had free pins i got a demi flag one and one w it/its on it which :]] #im saying it was fun bc im pretty sure it was my brain cant really process any feelings on it though its weird i think its just bc i #was probably a bit overwhelmed the whole time but like. i dont mean that in a super negative way i am just a bit confused #i do think it was fun though #back to the post part tho #i wanna note that i am not someone who naps like i genuinely cannot ever sleep during the day the only exception usually being #when im really sick like physically ill otherwise it doesnt matter how tired i am i can never nap #that being said #when we got back to my house we had some food and then layed down together and like. i was out in minutes. both of us were #straight up slept for an hour i think #which is so weird to me #like im sure i needed it we had just walked around for a few hours in a loud hot VERY peopley environment but like. what?????? #that was the easiest ive gotten to sleep by far within the past week or so ive been sleeping like shit ngl so that was. even stranger #genuinely it is so weird to me #i cant nap #but i did #and it was very comfy and it was one of those naps where you k n o w you slept hard bc you wake up a lil disoriented w fabric #wrinkle prints on ur face from whatever you were sleeping on #still so strange to me #something about this silly person of mine makes my brain work different in the comfy way like there was one other time last week #i think at our friends house where we were all chilling in the middle of the afternoon and i almost fell asleep on him then as well #i do not understand my brain ngl #in regards to comfy cozy or the fact that it cannot conceptualize a legitimate feeling or opinion on the experience of going to pride

thinking about how im literally on like. the 8th draft of my novel, but i've still never actually come up with a full, beginning-to-end readable draft without bits missing or repeated scenes or entire chapters in the wrong order

lol

#why the fuck is this how my brain works #i fucking WISH i was one of those people who like. has all their writing beautifully organized in neat little folders #i mean like. in a way i do. i have most of my fics organized by fandom and ship and whether they're in-universe or AU #and then you open the doc and it's just a fucking horrorshow of scenes. most of them are half-finished. none of them are in order #when i need to find a specific scene i literally just think of a word or phrase i used in that scene and CTRL+F it #if nothing shows up after i've tried two or three combinations then i start searching through my notes app to see if i wrote it on my phone #then if i STILL can't find it i look in my emails in case i wrote it at work on the sly and saved it as an email draft #and then if i still can't find it after that i'll have to conclude that i must've written it in my head and forgotten to write it down #the masterdoc for dndb is a fucking MESS. it's even more confusing than the fic itself #cos im so paranoid about losing drafts that every time i rewrite a scene for the 3928283th time #i copy it into the doc AGAIN. so the current word count is 80k but half of it is just me neurotically redrafting the same 3 sentences #i let my friend start reading the garbage draft of my novel and she was like “im so sorry i can't read this it's fucking incomprehensible” #and then she gently pointed out that i'd used the same joke in 3 consecutive chapters and forgotten about it every time.... #anyways i have a few chapters that are taking really nice shape but i just KNOW i'll get to a point where i turn the page and suddenly #there'll be another absolutely unhinged mess of tangled word-vomit for me to wrestle into something coherent...

I wanna talk about The Angel Who Would Be Crowley.

Because I had a certain set of expectations, which got thoroughly trashed in the first five minutes of S2, and my genuine response is, "Oh, fuck, yup. You're right. That's WAY better."

Looking around at GO fandom, I'm not alone in this. So let's talk about it.

Basically, a lot of people (myself included) believed that he was a high-ranking angel, and therefore as chilly and remote as every other powerful angel we'd seen at that point. We pictured Crowley-To-Be as long-haired, regal and imposing --and the fanart at the time reflected this. I'd link some if Tumblr didn't hate links.

Something like this:

We were collectively drawing on a few things --mostly, Crawly's appearance and general bearing in the Biblical scenes of S1--

--But also scattered hints of his importance, backed up by conspicuous absences in Heaven and a few profound displays of power. That's all better covered elsewhere, so I won't reiterate the arguments here. All I'm saying is: I think our headcanons were justified.

But it turns out he was this:

!!!

With his curly little--!!

And his neat white--!!

IT TURNS OUT, he was an angel who squeaked and squealed when he was happy; who flailed his arms around and made explosion noises with his mouth to explain nebulas; who preened when told his stars were pretty. Furfur, who knew him before the Fall, says:

"You used to jump on me back, little monkey in a waistcoat..."

(The use of a diminutive there, 'little'...oh, that fascinates me.)

In a pretty huge subversion of expectations, we're given these glimpses of an angel who was sweet, and joyful, and heart-meltingly silly.

In sum...an innocent.

(Perhaps innocent to a troubling degree.

We see how he troubles Aziraphale, during their first conversation. He starts looking around and behind them, checking to make sure that no one can HEAR the blithe and reckless things coming out of this angel's mouth. This angel who talks like he's never been reprimanded in his life; like it's never occurred to him that anyone would want to hurt him.

Before the Beginning, Aziraphale understood Heaven better than he did. The danger is plainly occurring to Aziraphale.)

So now, we the viewers are in on a cruel joke that Aziraphale has known all along, which is that this --THIS-- is the angel who--

*checks notes*

--did a million lightyear freestyle dive into a boiling pool of sulphur. For asking questions.

...Imagine you are Aziraphale, and everything inside you wants to believe Heaven are the Good Guys, and God is Good and Everything She does is capital-R Right...and now try to reconcile that. Keep trying. I don't think he ever totally managed it in 6000 years.

All this gets further complicated when we learn that, despite all of the above, we were still right. That sweet excitable babby up there?

He WAS a powerful and high-ranking angel.

That much is explicitly confirmed, with significant evidence that he could have been among the mightiest of archangels...

...Who apparently accosted his fellow angels for piggyback rides. And was remembered millennia later by those (now fallen) angels as something 'little.'

What does that tell us about who he was? Is?

Hell, Aziraphale has known to be wary of the archangels (and the judgements of Heaven in general) since before the Fall even happened. He chooses to believe they are Good; he can't fool himself into thinking they are Safe.

Yet he's absolutely certain that Crowley won't hurt Job's children. Enough to stand in a burning building and say to them, "I can't save you, but don't be afraid. I won't need to."

And what reason does he give?

("I know you."

"You do not know me."

"I know the angel you were.")

What does that tell us about who he was? Is?

("The angel you knew is not me."

But how is Aziraphale supposed to believe that, when he can see him all the time?)

tl;dr --yes, this is better. I love the tragedy of it.

'Innocence died screaming' and all that.

olderboyfriend!Simon thoughts

most definitely buy's you a gun as an anniversary present, and you almost scream. You tell him to take it back and he says hell nah! Eventually you like the gun and going to the ranges with Simon.

He say's things like, "I'm even better with a knife." and it's true, you watch him skin oranges and lemons to the pulp... extremely precise. You watch him with a confused face, internally screaming at the way he cuts them so smoothly and quickly.

"Hold this." He'll say as he takes the gun out of the glove compartment, whenever he's looking for something random like a tool.

Simon Riley is the king of fuck around and find out, anything is a weapon, you learned the hard way when you saw him throw a patio chair at a guy who tried to steal your car at three in the morning. Yes it was hot and yes after the police left you guys had hot steamy sex...

Extremely neat. military habits! That's until you come into his life, you're a bit messy, he doesn't mind but if there are crumbs anywhere but the table, he will freak out.

is a kisser, will kiss anything, your foot if he has too, knee, calves, shin, shoulder blade, forehead, ear, lips chin. He rlly doesn't care.

Not a big reader, thought it was stupid before and still thinks it is.

He is tech savvy though. fast typer, it kind of freaks you out to watch him fill out paper work on the computer, he types faster than you.

Has been almost everywhere in the world, absolutely HATES the heat. Loves water though, get that man to a beach now. He will swim for hours, and will lay on the sand, he always wanted to retire and live near a beach, somewhere sunny, but not too sunny.

Will talk about you in front of you and will act as if you're not there. Super good at ignoring people, he ignores you when he's pissed all the time. He will shut off his phone if you text him while he’s ignoring you. One time you wrote a note right in front of his face, stuck it on the fridge, he grabbed it and tossed it in the trash.

Very petty man.

Sleeps in total darkness, and will wait until your in a deep sleep to unplug your nightlight.

Super light on his feet, yes he scares you a lot.

Un-ironically listens to Tom jones, and does a really good impression that you make him do whenever he's drunk. Yes you guys watch flushed away almost every other week. it's a guilty pleasure film.

Very flirty, very smooth and extremely charming. and I need him in every hole- *gunshot*

Trueform sukuna who never kisses his concubines. EXCEPT he only kisses his favorite concubine aka reader 😞🎀

𝝑𝑒 synopsis. you’re the only one deserving of lord sukuna’s.. direct affection.

tags. true form!sukuna x concubine!reader. fluff, suggestive at most. uhh exhibitionism ? kinda but nothing crazy sexual happens, so pda. size difference. reader gets called ‘doll.’

you’re standing at the entrance of the estate, along with some other concubines. four of them. uraume is there with you as well. you’re all awaiting the one person you’re serving; ryomen sukuna.

it’s silent. the women don’t dare to speak up nor do they dare address you in a menacing manner because of uraume’s presence. you’re thankful for them. you really don’t want to have another petty fight with the concubines. not before your little trip to the village nearby.

you’re all accompanying sukuna to meet up with an infamous clan leader. it’s official business, but you’re needed as a sign of your lord’s high status. you’re basically his trophies that he likes to show off.

“interesting choice of clothing,” sukuna finally shows up. you all bow, showing respect. you look up and only then realise that he’s addressing you. his eyes wander over your figure, “who’s chosen that for you?”

you glance down at your kimono. it’s a beautiful red—suiting the color of sukuna’s eyes. your hair is put up in a neat bun, with a matching crimson hairpin that represented who you belong to.

him.

“my lady-in-waiting, my lord,” you say quietly. you cannot see it, yet can easily feel it; the jealous glares from the four women. they’re dressed in the exact same color red, yet their lord hasn’t paid them any mind. not even a glance.

sukuna just hums in response and makes a mental note of your answer. at least his human servants are good for something. he continues to shamelessly check you out.

“lord sukuna,” uraume interrupts carefully. they bow their head once the king of curses looks their way with a stoic expression, “we’ll have to leave now if we wish to make it there at dawn.”

it’s a gentle reminder, but there’s some urgency in their voice. sukuna rolls his eyes—he may have some official business, but he’s not attending that. not before taking care of other more important stuff first. “silence,” he comments to uraume, heavy steps heading your way afterwards.

your eyes meet his. you blink in confusion, eyelashes fluttering. the sight makes sukuna’s hands twitch at his sides. the way you stare up at him with such naïveté is making him want to destroy it.

you’re unsure what sukuna wants from you. as he orders, everyone stays quiet. you watch as his big hands wrap around your body—your waist engulfed by his warm palms. your eyes widen, but before you can question his actions, your lips are sealed by his.

it’s rare that he does this. kissing sukuna is a privilege. one that no one has ever gotten the honour of having, except for you.

you’ve tasted him. you’ve felt his tongue slither against yours. you’ve had his saliva mix with yours. you’ve had him grunting in your mouth.

you’ve had it all.

no one says a thing. even as your feet are lifted from the ground by the sheer strength of sukuna’s grip on your small body. to reach his lips properly, he has to pick you up and hold you against his chest. it’s his favorite thing to do.

“pretty thing,” sukuna coos with a grin. you can feel his lips curling up menacingly against your mouth. it makes you whine. you instantly shut up once you realise that you’re still outside and surrounded by others—who are basically waiting on you two to be done.

you’re embarrassed to the point that you want nothing more than to hide your face against sukuna’s chest. but he will not let you until he’s had his fill. your tongues swirl around each other passionately, followed by him sucking on your bottom lip and biting it with his sharp fangs.

“my lord,” you whine quietly. you know this’ll end up like that one time in the garden. where he shamelessly took you in front of his servants. you’re unsure if it’s a smart thing to do right now. sukuna has an appointment to go to after all.

his mouth doesn’t stop interlocking with yours. his thick fingers tug at the hairs on the back of your neck, causing you to part your lips in surprise. the king of curses takes his chance and explores your warm little mouth. the one that he’s claimed as his the moment you became his concubine.

you tug at his sleeve as a reminder. sukuna grumbles in annoyance, but he knows you’re right; he should let go. his bottom set of eyes dart over to uraume for a second and upon seeing their expressionless yet determined face, he sighs.

all that official business can suck his dick.

sukuna finally detaches his lips from your now wet and swollen ones. you’re breathing hard, trying to catch your breath. you’re flustered to the point you actually bury your face into sukuna’s chiseled chest. you’re sure this’ll be the only talk around the estate for the upcoming week. you’ll become the victim of some more. . . bullying.

the king of curses notices that you don’t let go of him at all. he grins at the sight of you so desperately clinging onto him. he tries to undo the little mess he made of your once neat hair in the meantime.

“what? want me to carry you all the way there, doll?” sukuna raises an eyebrow, teasing you as per usual. you don’t let go of him since you’re still cooling off. you’ve never really kissed outside of the bedroom. it always happens behind closed doors, so this one time took you by surprise.

you shake your head and plop down on your feet again. “no, my apologies, my lord,” you straighten the material of your kimono and don’t even dare to look at the others. uraume would understand, since they’re used to their lord’s antics, but the concubines will cause big trouble once you’re back home.

sukuna nods in acknowledgment. he still got that evil smirk on his face. his thumb brushes the smudged lipstick from the corner of your mouth, cleaning up his mess once again. he’s nice enough to do so today.

“heh.” sukuna lets out an amused chuckle before walking away and ahead of you—the others silently following, as do you. you’re right behind him, on his right side, as he turns his head to yours, “just so y’know, i’m not done with you.”

you know sukuna isn’t. you can easily tell by the way that he didn’t even bother to wipe the lipstick from his own lips. he’s wearing that stain like it’s a medal of sorts. evidence that you’re the only one he’s ever going to show such affection to.

either way; you’re in for one hell of a ride once you’re back from your little business trip.
