I have not been normal about nerdy prudes must die since it came out so it seems its time for me to write my analysis of 'the summoning'.

I will put a cut down here because holy shit i did not think i was this normal about them this is long. also spoilers for nerdy prudes must die!

Now the summoning is what I would consider the climax of the show.* The scene answers the big questions of the show. Not by just stating the answer like the mayor does, it shows us. it also shows us the oh so beloved oh moment of Steph knowing she loves Peter.

The scene also uses some form of chekov's gun multiple times.

We've been told that the school was built at what used to be a black altar. this scene shows what such a black altar allows someone to do. especially in combination with the book.

A literal chekov's gun, the gun Grace stole and then Steph got is heavily implied to be used. (finally)

As i've stated before the love situation. We knew Steph and Peter had something going for them but this only confirms it.

THE PHONE! Steph thinks her phone is the thing she cherishes most, which is not a big stretch, we've seen her be willing to suffer injury to protect her phone. (a lovely little detail)

they setup Grace using the book against dirty dudes.

I may be missing something whoops but yeah,

now the scène itself has a lovely buildup. First the three are in very low energy summoning the lords in black. The frightened energy is just seeping out of them, you know this is their last resort. Then the lords in black appear, from a pure darkness, with a high energy slightly discordant song (the piano and the guitar clash a slight bit). This stands in contrast with the slow piano music under the teens throughout the scene. Within this song the lords in black seem unsurprised by the situation, they seem elated even. They also clearly state they are not forces of good at most they can be considered gray ("us spawn of the Black and White") however the other pieces of lyrics are very much against that assumption.

Let's look at some of the dialogue a bit more closely why not? I wont be looking at all of the dialogue because thats a bit too insane even for me.

"Out of the depths of Hell and back" Us spawn of the Black and White" "Cover our souls with robes of black" "And take up the arms of night"

This seems to me even like they chose to be in the black, they are from hell they're from the night.

"Nibbleline wants his sacrifice And Wiggly wants his wrath We dance around the pentagram And take all our kingdoms back"

The previous shows intent: sacrifice, wrath, getting what they deserve.

"You summon us once you summon us twice, You gamble it on a roll of the dice"

Now this is what predicts Grace's dirty dudes must die. it also seems to imply that Steph's father among others used the book foolishly, the chance of victory seemed to outweigh the risks.

"The devil has won it can't be undone The book has all but closed on your life"

Shows that the lords know the teens are in no position to bargain. They know theyre above them.

Wiggly: Don't be so formal, Stephie. We're all paly-wals here. I mean, look at us. We even hold court in your own tongue and form. Go Nighthawks! (Lords in Black laughing) Pokey: Our true forms would melt your minds. WIggly: Don't frighten them, Pokey, you nasty boy.

This is what we'll see more in this scene wiggly is the medium between the will of the lords in black and the teens. An interesting detail. This also seems to be Wiggly trying to make the teens be less guarded. THeyre showing some sort of "goodwill", like "hey we could easily kill you but we're throwing you a rock let's see what can happen.". Additionally, this also shows them being more powerful than the teens again.

"The Lords in Black will help you yes You stupid silly girl Why help you with the Jagerman When we can help the world!"

Once again a show of power, why even ask for help they're already there just show them what you can give them. They have got all the time for anything, theyre more powerfull than just stopping that jagerman.

"Steph: What about a bargain? We'll give you whatever you want. Just get rid of Jagerman!"

A show that the teens have no other choice. THe fact they have heard the lords in black say theyre from hell doesn't matter anymore. They're at a low point.

"Whatever we want we want we want Whatever we want we get Whatever you want you want you want Forever in our debt"

no other way to say this other than: "you fucked up kids"

Wiggly: "Oh, you'll hardly miss it. We just want what you cherish most."

hmmm understatements are fun. I love these paradoxical statements.

Wiggly: One of you must give up the thing you treasure above all else. Pokey: Do it, or die!

Once again a lovely power statement, though that's not what I found interesting. The interesting part about this is that they only ask for ONE of them fo give up what they cherish most. They could ask for way more, they've made that clear. So why ask for only one thing?

"We don't give a shit about your phone"

This is the one moment I feel like the lords in black loose their composure. My hypothesis? they don't like people lying to themselves when something is very clear.

"The Lords in Black the Lords in Black call us"

The chorus sing the lords in black call us, WHO ARE THE CHORUS I NEED TO KNOW.

"Out of the depths of hell and back Us spawn of the black and white Cover our souls with robes of black And take up the arms of night You summon us once you summon us twice You gamble it on a roll of the dice La la la la la la la la la la The devil has won it can't be undone The book has all but closed on your life"

JUSt one thing: A lovely circular closure to the scene.

OKAY thats the dialogue wooooo (theres more to be said about it probably but also I just My brain want to get to the next part.)

Okay Okay okay okay now for the fun part!

The lovely staging and costume and its so wonderfull.

So in the above image we can see the lords in black as well as the teens. As i've stated before the lords in black like to make a show in power and the dynamics are very much powerless vs. allpowerfull.

Now what the positioning on the stage does is show this contrast as well. The lords in black are all over the stage standing, moving, dancing. High energy high standing. This while the teens are sitting on the floor, all together, they're as small as they can be in this setting. This shows how little power they have at this point.

The lighting as well as the costumes adds a lot as well:

See the teens here? no special lighting aside from the effects of the lords. This is in incredible contrast with the lords. colourful and bright. This is similarly the case with their costumes, the teens all have quite plain clothes, nothing special for a costume definitely, we do have the more unique clothing to define each character** but that falls away once you look at the lords:

Wiggly: bright green light (so much fun green isnt used in stage lighting often i am in love), Green clothing, a suit with glossy pants a crown and of course the wiggly doll in the back.

Nibbly: SO PINk, but also fleshy pink somehow. the lighting isnt as obvious but it is still pink. here the sparkes return. The giant lolly. just the giant lolly.

Blinky: Interesting choice to have the face as obscured as it is. once again i cant say the lighting is very obvious but it is there. The purple orange colour contrast makes them stand out. when in comparison to the others his costume isnt as showy.

Tinky: HOLY SHIT THE EYESHADOW. which isnt visible because.... yes the lighting! yellow lighting! the outfit isn't as sparkly but because it is the brightest outfit of them all I doubt that would have been neccesary. It keeps the balance. I am also Biassed I love this getup.

Pokey: once again: LIGHTING! blue! but also, Pokey I feel is the least obvious lord in black in the scene, the positioning on the side of the stage across from Tinky the yellow and blue contrast how fun. especially as Wiggly (green) is in the middle. just so good.

I just wanted to add some more because look at how wiggly is so much higher in this scene, he needs to look down on the teens, but doesn't do that often, not even bothered to look at them wow. Also quick note wiggly seems the most bothered by the summoning, wonder why.

And whenever all of the lords are singing with their discordant choreography, the lighting goes all disco and far brighter. A great detail to show they're individuals but are similar. see how the light is not green here? yeah that happens whenever all of the lords are speaking.

All in all I think Nerdy prudes must die is now in my top three favourite starkid shows. and I will be using the lords in black as inspiration in the play I'm in currently as well because this is exactly the type of thing we were looking for. and also I am not going to be able to think about anything but this show for ages.

I highly encourage anyone to give their opinions or whatever they noticed because I need it I would love to hear them. GO NIGHTHAWKS!

1* Now this comes at a relatively late time in the (already very long) show. At the 2 hour point we've been following our dear cast for around 4/5ths of the show. Now keep in mind this is doesn't matter much, but I think it's interesting that they chose to have the climax at this point. The play being as long as it is means they had to have been very confident in their ability to keep the viewers attention and especially with the slow buildup.

2** OH MY GOODNESS I JUST REALISED HOW WELL STEPH AND PETER's PALLETTES WORK TOGETHER. like theyre both earth tones. the green and brown fit together so well, and then you also have the patterns, different but still similar enough to not clash.

(MAJOR NERDY PRUDES MUST DIE SPOILERS)

Hello!! To those who have watched the show already, I hope you understand when I say The Lords in Black's song has been stuck in my head since… but I’m desperately trying to work out the lyrics.

(Edit; me and another fan have figured out what I was missing! These may not be 100% but here are the completed lyrics)

So far I have:

Out of the depths of hell and back, us spawn of the black and white

Cover our souls with robes of black and take up the arms of night.

Nibbly wants his sacrifice, and Wiggly wants his wrath

We dance around the pentagram and take all our kingdoms back.

Babble the spell that gets it done, babble it on command

Won’t stop until all the blood is drawn, the lords in Black demand…

You summon us once, you summon us twice, you gamble it on the roll of the dice.

The devil has won, It can’t be undone, the book has all but closed on your life.

(BLINKY: We’ve been watching you Gracie…Someone’s been a little naughty

TINKY: (laughter) Oh boy! A Spankoffski! I can have the whole set in my toybox.

NIBBLY: Stephanie yum yum.

STEPHANIE: Are you the Lords in Black?)

Out of the depths of hell and back, we travel very far

Cover our souls with robes of black , the lords in black we are.

(WIGGLY: Don’t be so formal Stephanie, we’re all pally wals here. I mean look at us, we even hold court in your own tongue and form. Go Nighthawks!

All Laugh

POKEY: Our true forms would melt your minds

WIGGLY: Don’t frighten them Pokey, you nasty boy.

STEPHANIE: We need to stop Max Jagerman. We heard you can help us)

The lords in black will help you yes, you stupid silly girl.

By helping rid the Jagerman, we can help the world.

(WIGGLE: Hm We could, we could take home little Maxy and pull him right down to Drowsytown.

NIBBLY: Swallow his soul, I wanna lick it.

WIGGLY: But why? Maxy poo’s about to get you, tear you all to bloody bits!

BLINKY: I wanna see that.

STEPHANIE: How about a bargain? We’ll give you whatever you want. Just get rid of Jagerman.)

WIGGLY: Whatever we want?!)

Whatever we want, we want, we want,

Whatever we want we get.

Whatever you want, you want, you want, forever in our debt

(WIGGLY: Hm, what could you give to me? Let me check my Christmas list. (gasps) there is something.

STEPHANIE: What? What do you want from us?

TINKY: Something fun!

NIBBLY: Something tasty.

WIGGLY: Oh, you’ll hardly miss it. We just want what you cherish most. That’s all

STEPHANIE: What we cherish most? What do you mean?

POKEY: What do you want, Steph…?

WIGGLY: One of you must give up the thing you treasure above all else.

POKEY: Do it or die!

STEPHANIE: What I treasure above all else? I know what it is! My phone! My whole life’s on this thing! It has my contacts, my pictures-)

WE DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR PHONE

(WIGGLY: We want what you really want…you can’t lie to us Steph. You can lie to yourself but not to me. Think about it…

(Steph looks to Peter)

WIGGLY: Ah, there he is

PETER: Steph?

STEPHANIE: No! No!

WIGGLY: What’s in your pocket Steph-O-nie?)

Stephanie has got a gun, tra la la la, how fun

Stephanie has got a gun, she knows what must be done.

(WIGGLY: Put a bullet in his brain and we’ll take Maxwell off your plate.

STEPHANIE: I can’t!

WIGGLY: Pay the price or fuck off

Out of the depths of hell and back, us spawn of the black and white

Cover our souls with robes of black and take up the arms of night.

You summon us once, you summon us twice, you gamble it on the roll of the dice.

The devil has won, It can’t be undone, the book has all but closed on your life.

== Love Notes ==

Alright lovelies. I have so many words to say about how great you all are, how much I love you (and I'm sure you're tired of hearing them), but I went back to work today after 7 days of being sick and now my brain is mush. So instead I'm going to put the text of one of my son's books in here because I think every one of us should feel loved like we were when we were 5.

On The Night You Were Born - By Nancy Tillman On the night you were born, the moon smiled with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered, “Life will never be the same.” Because there had never been anyone like you… ever in the world. So enchanted with you were the wind and the rain, that they whispered the sound of your wonderful name. It sailed through the farmland High on the breeze… Over the ocean… And through the trees… Until everyone heard it and everyone knew of the one and only ever you. Not once had there been such eyes, such a nose, such silly, wiggly, wonderful toes. When the polar bears heard, they danced until dawn. From faraway places, the geese flew home. The moon stayed up until morning next day. And none of the ladybugs flew away. So whenever you doubt just how special you are and you wonder who loves you, how much and how far, Listen for geese honking high in the sky. (They’re singing a song to remember you by.) Or notice the bears asleep at the zoo. (It’s because they’ve been dancing all night for you!) Or drift off to sleep to the sound of the wind. (Listen closely… it’s whispering your name again!) If the moon stays up until morning one day, or a ladybug lands and decides to stay, or a little bird sits at your window awhile, it’s because they’re all hoping to see you smile… For never before in story or rhyme (not even once upon a time) has the world ever known a you, my friend, and it never will, not ever again… Heaven blew every trumpet And played every horn On the wonderful, marvelous Night you were born

The Lords in Black and Webby as content creators (they’re still siblings and they perhaps all lived in one Content House):

Wiggly:

Wiggly is your standard Big YouTuber - think Pewdiepie or MrBeast without the philanthropy. He’s gotten into feuds with EVERYONE and is highly controversial, his fans are mostly Dude Bros who excuse his actions because “Wiggly’s based, dude”. Nobody can quite figure out how he got so popular but any attempts to get his accounts deleted were stopped in their tracks by his loyal fans. He plays a lot of video games.

Pokey:

He’s a cover artist who has a Rachel Berry sized ego. He thinks he’s the best thing since sliced bread, and is actually better than that because bread can’t sing. He’s been booked as the opening act for a few bands so that inflated his god complex, but really he’s semi-average at best, the guy with a guitar at a party who’ll say “Anyway, here’s Wonder Wall”. He doesn’t have as many fans because although he’s proud of his voice he doesn’t like being seen, so he always has an avatar on screen to sing through (see what I did there?) alas, he is quite the elusive figure and he’s only ‘famous’ because of his family.

Tinky:

He’s the wacky, zany challenge guy who tries to break world records or play pranks on his siblings, he’s done at least twenty “Calling _blank_ at 3 am” videos and a lot of them are centred around FNAF. He also posts conspiracy theories and has been cancelled numerous times for stalking smaller YouTubers such as the Alpha Male influencer Ted Spankoffski. He’s rarely featured in his family’s videos for many reasons.

Blinky:

Blinky is a commentary YouTuber who reacts to various movies and tv shows. He’s famous in his own right because he picks up on small details in what he watches and is scarily good at figuring out where the plot is going - his viewers have an ongoing challenge amongst themselves to try and make him watch something that he can’t work out the ending of, but they haven’t been successful yet. Overall Blinky is pretty chill, he doesn’t get into controversies and he’s decent enough to anyone he interacts with - he’s genuinely nice to his fans and is a bit confused as to why his videos blew up.

Nibbly:

A Mukbang YouTuber as well as a chef and beauty influencer (on the side). He is just the sweetest ray of sunshine, with his signature bright smile and sign-off of “Remember, friends, spread kindness throughout the world, because we deserve more smiles!” He’s overlooked by his brothers when it comes to making content but he doesn’t mind; people are drawn to his enthusiasm and he’s one of the most popular brothers alongside Blinky because of the chill vibes he emanates - he’s the only one who’ll collaborate with Webby.

Webby:

Webby was kicked out of the Content House in disgrace when she spoke out against Wiggly’s cruel behaviour. She mostly dances but she also does song covers and fashion videos - a lot of her fans see her as an older sister because her videos are very informal, like you’re talking to your best friend over the phone. She also raises awareness for social issues and has launched several successful fundraising campaigns to help as many people as possible. Some people call her the Guardian Angel of YouTube.

So just imagine Ted meeting the rest of the Lords in Black. That man has no idea what the hell is going on, where the hell he is, or who the hell they are. But he doesn’t appreciate it & really isn’t all that impressed so I think he’d resort to being very snarky & defensive. Like they introduce themselves as the lords in black & legit do the whole song & dance. He just stands there swaying along & waits for them to finish & then goes “for the “lords in black” you sure are a bunch of rainbow lookin’ motherfuckers” complete with air quotes & everything

Chaos ensues when Tinky tries to keep his brothers from killing his new kidnapped boyfriend while Ted just keeps pissing them off on purpose

Shit like making fun of their full names in a teasey asshole way, which leads to informal introductions with their nicknames. & y’all he straight up bullies Wiggly & calls his ass out. Like “Wiggly? No relation to tickle me wiggly I suppose” & laughs at his own joke & Wiggly is quietly seething & goes “actually, yes” & Ted, lovable bastard that he is, doubles over in laughter like “oh my god, really? Fuckin’ A! So what, I just tickle your tummy and we’re friends or some shit?”

& Wiggly snatches his wrist & is like “don’t you even think about trying that again” & yeah it’s a little scary, but he’s pretty sure Tinky will protect him. So he just smirks & rolls his eyes like “ok riddle me this wise guy: why make a tickle doll of yourself if you don’t wanna get tickled?” & does that fucking shrug from tgwdlm (where he’s like I say we go & beg for the king’s help around 4:40 in the video) but he basically renders him speechless as he’s getting ready to lash out & make Ted eat those words. But Blinky’s like “we’ve all been thinking it, haven’t we?”

Ted is just enjoying the show as Wiggly’s all pissy & defensive like “I’ve told you it wasn’t even my idea!” But the rest of the lib are like “yeah suuuure” because they never pass up an opportunity to tease the shit out of him. & Ted just keeps stirring the pot & Wiggly decides to wreck him since he thinks this is all just so funny

Definitely, can you pretty please go into depth about the MC outfits because I would LOVE to hear that /gen

WOOHOO!! YIPPEE!! DANCING AROUND MY LITTLE CORNER FULL OF RED TAPE AND MADNESS!!

gonna start in no particular order

TINKY COSTUME my beloved and beloathed (the colors fucked me up). to be honest most of it is pretty obvious. the maze design on the sleeves and the box on the shirt is meant to represent the bastard's box, but i imagine that box glowing in the game. for important plot or something. i just want the box to glow. the pants are pretty much directly because i wanted to give the MC boots (i didn't draw shoes because hell if i was gonna design six good looking pairs of shoes) and they fit in with the pattern on the sleeves + the overall steampunk-ish vibe tinky has. the outfit itself wasn't really steampunky or yellow, but these outfits were made to compliment the lord, so rather than two engineers, it's like a mad scientist and his loyal lab rat. so something that would be easy to move around in

and now is a good a time as any to mention this. all of the outfits were made with the CoTSC designing them in mind, which is why they look all different, because i feel like the church has different views on how each lord wants to be treated. like they're pretty sure nibbly is good with things being more modern, but wiggly and pokey would be more "traditional" i guess. the church is just convinced some of them need to be held to the same standard they were given decades ago

anyway. blinky. the whole thing with the blindfold is that the CoTSC thinks you're not meant to look at blinky. blinky actually doesn't care whether you look at him or not, but there's this air of "you're not supposed to do this" when the MC tries to take the blindfold off. the eye button-thing was very fun for me to think about because i saw this button a while ago that was the pupil as the button, and i've been trying to incorporate it into something ever since. the pants are more of a stylistic choice than anything, so interpret it how you will

nibbly's costume was actually so fun for me to draw. i wanted it to look like something out of a fucked-up twisted willy wonka. the base for the top is really similar to tinky's but that's fine because they probably all steal something from the others. tinky's costume steals the specific yellow from blinky's costume, who steals the midsection part from pokey's costume, who steals the whole robe thing from wiggly's costume. also there's no cape or flowy thing for nibbly's costume because if the MC failed i don't think the CoTSC would want nibbly mad at them for having to chew extra fabric. also you need to be able to run without tripping over yourself if you try to escape him :]

pokey's costume was also really fun. obviously the grey, blue, and the cracks (it's also supoosed to be lightning!) are from his canon design, but the glasses are because i wanted something on the MC's face like the mask. it couldn't be another mask because pokey would get offended by that i think, and sunglasses are in the superstar/thespian ballpark. this costume also has the most stars on it (they go all the way around the hem of the robe) because of pokey's connection to space

finally, wiggly's costume. this is the one i think i have the most to talk about. first and foremost: there's a full black outfit under the robe. the fingerless gloves and pants are actually one jumpsuit, like president howard's suit in black friday. the collar thing is connected to the cape, which is split into six parts to be kind of like wiggly's tentacles. the fluffy collar is meant to be like the doll's fur. the whole thing is meant to keep the MC insulated, because i imagine the temperature drops whenever a lord is around, and especially when THE lord in black shows up. all of the sniggles (+ blinky) have fur, so they've probably had to adapt to the cold. now that i'm thinking about it, the CoTSC aren't that antagonistic in the costume design process. they cater to both the lords and the MC's needs, or whatever they think those needs are. like i said before, wiggly's costume is meant to be more "traditional", like the robes they wear. this costume is similar to what they'd put you in before sacrificing you

thanks for coming to my braindump

#also the full internet name made me do a double take. like. i thought i was in trouble for a second. i genuinely read it in my mom's voice #definite's ted talks #definitely an ask #the lords in black #t'noy karaxis #nibblenephim #blinklotep #pokotho #wiggog y'wrath #there's probably something i thought about while drawing but forgot to mention but whateverrrrrr it'll come back to me eventually #does this feel super pretentious to type out? yes #do i have to be neurodivergent about it or i'll die? also yes #long post

I love prompt things!

How about the word...twirl? :)

Oooo! A good one! Here you go! A bit of Wayne Munson/Claudia Henderson thrown in there too!

‐----‐--------------------

In the short six months after the "earthquake" that rocked Hawkins to its core, many strange things had happened. Some bad things, yes. But some good too.

In all of the chaos with Eddie and Max in the hospital, Wayne Munson and Claudia Henderson met. To say that the two adults got along was... a huge understatement!

At first glance, Steve didn't really see much of a resemblance between nephew and uncle. Besides the obvious, Hair vs. no Hair, Wayne was shorter than his nephew. He also lacked the rich, warm brown eyes that Steve was starting to become addicted to. Wayne's were what Steve thought at a cool blue. His hands were stubby and naked, where Eddie's fingers were all long, wiggly tendons and metal rings.

All of those thoughts went out the fucking window the minute Steve witnessed Wayne meeting Claudia.

The woman went into that hospital with a mission. After hearing Dustin talk about how Wayne had barely left Eddie's side in days, Claudia Henderson bustled into the room like only a mother of Dustin Henderson could, handed a bemused Wayne a cup of coffee and a club sandwich in Reynolds Wrap, and tutted at him that he would be no help to Eddie if he didn't take care of himself. (Steve...may have got a similar speech...)

Instead of the man being offended...well, you would think Claudia handed Wayne the moon.

Once Wayne, and subsequently Eddie's jaws were picked up off the floor, Wayne opened up.

While it was quieter, more subtle, Wayne Munson flirting greatly resembled the cow-eyed, cute quipped, touchy-feely dance Eddie did around Steve. (Steve, very observant thank-you-very-much, noticed this. Feeling the flutter of something warm and cautiously hopeful, Steve asked Robin later, "Hey, do you think Eddie's been flirting with me?" Robin sputtered and fell out of her chair)

After just talking to the woman for a second time, a besotted Wayne swore to his nephew in his hospital bed, "I'm gonna marry that woman."

Well, that was only going to happen *after* Steve hints that Claudia has to ask the man out first. Apparently, Munson men fall in love hard, fall fast, and stay in love like a possessive, deranged swan. They just...have an awkward time going from love declarations to actually asking someone out.

This was confirmed by Eddie. They were once again in his hospital room. Eddie was getting close to being released, but still had to stay until his wounds healed over a little better. Steve, hating the idea of Eddie being alone while Wayne had to go to work, would hang out with him in between work shifts and volunteering at the school. This meant he was often sleeping over on the pullout cot. It was one of those mornings when he slept over in the hospital that it came up. Since it seemed like Steve and Wayne were trading Eddie shifts, Claudia was bringing them both clean clothes and something to eat. He and Eddie witnessed the exchange, where hands lingered just a bit longer than necessary on the work clothes she so nicely washed. Instead of Wayne yaki g his chances, he called her "Dollface" and "Sweetheart" before rushing to get ready to leave. Steve saw the glimmer of confused disappointment in her eyes.

Steve fully understood that feeling.

Later, Steve found himself questioning Eddie on why Wayne was like that. How the time before he gave Claudia his jacket in the chilly hospital, only to make an excuse to zip out that Eddie needed more Jello.

Eddie hates Jello. Calls it a "Gelatinous Cube" and hisses at it anytime some comes near. Steve finds it endearing funny.

"So, your uncle goes on and on about liking Dustin's mom, but flakes out when he has a chance to ask her out. What gives, man?"

Averting his eyes, Eddie shrugged from eating his chocolate pudding (that Steve smuggled in for him). "What can I say? Munson men feel deeply, but are chicken shit about rejection. We just bat our eyes and stare, hoping the one we love gets a hint and proposes first."

"You mean asks out first."

"I know what I said, Big Boy."

Steve knew he needed to leave and take Dustin (who was with Max in the other room Steve frequented) home to his mom. He *also* knew he had to have a little chat with said mom.

But Eddie had him thinking.

After their goodbyes, as Steve stood at the threshold of the door, he mustered up the courage to turn around.

"You know, Eddie. You bat your eyes at me. Like, all the time."

Eddie dropped his spoon, beautiful cow-eyes wide. "Uh..."

Steve crosses his arms, and leaned a little cockily against the door frame. "And you stare."

Eddie pulled a piece of hair in front of his face, voice going up a higher octave. "Would we reeeeally call it staring? I thought of it more practicing telepathy."

Feeling giddy and so, so in love, Steve sauntered back in.

"You're not a mind reader, and I'm not El. If you want me to ask you out, you gotta give me a better signal."

Eddie went from looking panicked to impishly intrigued. "You'd be up for that? What kind of signals are we talking about? And what outcome should I expect? You know, hypothetically."

Steve shrugged, trying for casually cool and not like his heart was going to jump out of his chest and tackle Eddie back into the bed. "I dunno, like twirl your hair? Bite you lip? Or, I don't know, say 'Hey Steve, I would really like to get to go on our first date soon' to name a few!"

Eddie's brow furrowed. "And would there be a date?"

Steve walked back in and sat on the edge of Eddie's bed, softly petting at Eddie's calf. "Oh, there would be LOTS of dates. That one would just be the one to get the ball rolling. Throw me a bone here. Hypothetically, of course. "

Tilting his head, Eddie eyed Steve and twirled a piece of his hair.

Steve held in a gasp.

"I see what you're getting at, Stevie-Boy."

Looking away, Eddie bit his lip.

"But I'm stuck in this here hospital bed. If I said, 'Date me now, you beautiful bastard!', where wouldwe go? The cafeteria?"

Steve propped himself above Eddie, hand braced against the wall behind Eddie's head.

"Hypothetically?"

"Of course."

Steve reached over to twirl a curl of Eddie’s hair. He learned closer, almost nose to nose.

"Hypothetically speaking, we could be dating for months before we even go on a single date. Busy lives, you know."

Eddie, trying and failing to look serious, canted his nose to rub against Steve's.

"That sounds an awful like proposing to be boyfriends, Sweetheart."

Switching from looking into his eyes to his lips, Steve breeched the hairsbreadth of space, kissing the supple lips he had been dreaming about, before giving Eddie's bottom lip a little nibble.

"Ha. I guess you have it right. What do you say? Want to give it a go?"

Eddie threaded his fingers into Steve hair.

"Boyfriends?"

"Yes."

"Hypothetically?"

"Hell no."

"Good."

Dustin found them ten minutes later, making out on Eddie's hospital bed.

The little shit wasn't even mad or traumatized.

He just demanded that Steve figure out how to get his mom and Wayne to figure their shit out.

Turns out all Claudia had to do was the hair twirl before Wayne caved.

So Jk came by..

Honestly, whenever I get the notification that he is live, I low-key panic lol

You never know what you are going to get with Jk. Once you open that live, you are in for a wild ride.

Oh, and it was quite the ride.

So we have our Jungkook looking as beautiful as ever. He looked so soft and very cuddly too stopping by to say he missed army.

Unlike other a few of his other lives, he seemed very giggly and wiggly. He was upbeat and not as pensive. It reminded me a younger Jk. It felt like he did this live to share his happy feelings. Ah it felt great to see him so happy!

Does anyone else feel like everything Jk says is a spoiler? It feels like he's always about to spill! Maybe that's why his hair is so cute? It's full of secrets.

Anyways...

Hes been working out,

hes been cooking, he's been watching tiktok, and Seventeen videos.

Imma go ahead and let a not so delulu thought slip. If he is bringing up dancing, it's because his album will have choreo, right?

I think we all cracked up when he started the live in a quiet voice and was belting out notes a few minutes later. He really did try to be quiet, though lol

You can literally hear these pictures. Quiet Jungkook vs singing Jungkook.

He reminds me of a little puppy when they are learning to howl. No wonder he's a puppy prince. Jimin saw it. He's a man ahead of times, that one.

Ahhh and he sang Angel pt.1. Yeah, he sang other songs, Night Dancer too, which according to him he even hears in his sleep at the moment.

youtube

But Angel just kept coming back to him.

If that's not love, I don't know what is.

We aren't the only ones who noticed how good Jk would sound with Jimin.

Jvke noticed too.

Angel boys, he called them.

Now, I dont know if that's a spoiler but I really want it to be.

That or Jvke is a Jikooker too. Or both. I'll take both.

hopefully demon slayer isn’t filled yet but, anyways… hear me out Akaza squealing for air tickles! I apologize for fangirling in advance.:)

Demon Slayer Slots Remaining: 2

Never apologize for fangirling, friend! I'm such an Akaza girlie, so I get it kjearkjakejrjkaerkj This is so freaking cute ahh! I went with Hantengu for this one! The anime's making me intrigued about him and his forms, so I figured why not give him a shot? :3 I hope you like it!

CW: Swearing

“FUCKING STAHAHAP IT!”

“Oo, he’s so angry!” Urogi laughed in glee amongst his brethren, fingers dancing over Akaza’s prone form. “We got him now, boys!”

“Muaha! Look at how giggly he is! I never thought I’d see such a demon having so much fun!!” Karaku laughed alongside him, waving his own hands around for added effect. “Is Lord Akaza too ticklish for his own good?”

“Oi, just get him already!” Seikido growled, growing irritated. “We’re wasting time!”

“Such a silly weakness for such a strong demon.” Aizetsu sounded glum. “Shame, really.”

Akaza would have told them all to go roll in sunlight if he could. Currently he was trapped below their hurdle of air tickles, laughing as he squirmed to and fro. “Hhahahahantehhehgu, cahhahahall thehehehem ohoohhooohohohohff!”

“EEEEK! I’m sorry, Lord Akaza! Forgive meeeee!” The tiny demon wailed from his hiding spot, tucked away behind a tall pillar as his manifestations attacked the striped man. “I tried to warn you before you took off my head, but you didn’t listen!”

Fair enough- Akaza was warned.

Didn’t make this whole ordeal any less humiliating.

“Aww, is someone a little too ticklish for his own good? Is he?” Urogi cooed at him, wiggling his fingers inches above his armpits. His knees kept his wrists pinned above his head, further worsening his predicament.

“I bet he’d be extra wiggly if we traced his whittle stripes!” Karaku teased, mimicking the motion above the stripes running along Akaza’s belly. “Lord Douma does it all the time and he seems to love it!”

“FUUUHUHUHCK OOOHOHOHOHOHOHOFF!” Akaza squealed, the noise high pitch as it ripped from his throat. The hurdle of demons around him cackled, equally delighted.

“He squealed! He squealed!” Urogi cheered.

“Do it again or I’ll kill you!” Seikido growled, air kneading his thigh.

“Poor Lord Akaza. Too ticklish to survive.” Aizetsu moaned in pity.

Akaza was going to wring Douma’s neck when he found him.

But first he had to survive Hantengu's antics.

Send me a headcanon and character(s) and I'll write a short 300-500 word dabble for it!

#headcanons to dabbles #demon slayer #akaza #hantengu #urogi #karaku #seikido #aizetsu #hantengu clones #fluff #tw: swearing #I like writing Hantengu now #Might add him to my test run characters #kjakrjeakjrkjaerk

During The Summoning we only get lines focusing on Nibbly and Wiggly.

"Nibbly and his sacrifice and Wiggly wants his Wrath"

We don't get lines like that focused on all the other characters. We do get hints about them though. The reason I'm bringing this up is because (and I'm probably slow and others pointed this out) it was foreshadowing the ending.

During Dirty Dudes Must Die we see all the Lord in Black colours at first but then it turns to mainly pink and green, Nibbly and Wiggly. My favourite scene has to be when Angela yells at Jason and the colouring on her face goes from pink to green. The sacrifice got away but the wrath is still there and it's taking over. On top of that Grace would have a lot of wrath.

Max was a perve who was never gonna stop going after her even when she would say no. Even if she ended up having thoughts about him she still wanted to save herself and couldn't because it was either give up her chastity or let Steph or Peter die. Of course she's going to be angry. Like she said in DDMD "You think the time that I was Chaste was being waste on holy mission." You can take that two different ways to be fair, but I'm focusing on the one where she feels like her saving herself only to have to give it up to Max felt like a waste and she didn't really want to but it was the mission that caused her to do it. On top of that her parents very much instilled it in her brain that any thought of intimacy (even dancing with both boys and girls) is a sin, she's not going to feel comfortable going to them and probably scared to. She feels like god betrayed her and never had an experience like she did with The Lords In Black with God, which is seeing him face to face and getting a solid answer to how to figure something out.

I don't know how to end this or if anything made sense, but what I was trying to explain was why Grace would have a lot of genuine anger by the end. She's mad at what she was taught and felt betrayed by it. So she has that anger towards her religion and her parents for it as well. She's mad at the perverts and the bullies. It makes sense she would go after one of the football boys. Even if they didn't like the bullying they never tried stopping it, and they even admitted that they would go back to it if Max ever back (though Grace wasn't there for that one).

Maybe I'll do a full on analysis of Grace one day. Including outfit analysis as well. It would probably be fun.

Title not found

I love how I said I'd write ler Dazai and then I proceeded to spawn this in the span of like 3 secs-💀

What does that say about me? That im very lee for Poe

___________________________________________

Poe x gn!reader (romantic)

Lee: reader

Ler: Poe

Warnings: Tickles!

___________________________________________

You had always wanted to give writing a try, especially after watching your partner write countless novels to defeat his rival. But you just wanted to do it for fun, and what better time to start than now during summer?

It was all going great, your boyfriend made you your own little nook besides his own desk with enough pen and paper to write 'till your hearts content! Except there was one problem...

"Ugh!" you let out a loud grunt of annoyance as you crumbled yet another piece of paper and chucked it to the trashbin.

"What's wrong, love?" Poe looked up at you from his own desk, setting his manuscript aside to tend at you.

"These stupid words won't write themselves!" you pouted like a 'lil kid, even crossing your arms and slouching on your seat. This only made Poe chuckle at your little outburst.

"Why, that's part of the process!" he tried to encourage, but your pout only grew heavier as you tilted your head away from him. A small frown crossed his face as he scooted closer to you. "What seems to be the problem, dear?".

"I don't know... it's just so hard...!" you whined out, throwing your hands up in frustration. "I didn't think it'd be this complicated to write a story..." a soft sigh escaped your lips. "How do you do it?".

"W-well... there isn't a concrete answer for that... But I assure you, with time it'll get easier." he said with a soft smile but noticed you were still all sour. "Hmm... what if you set that aside for now and take your mind elsewhere? Maybe approaching it with a clear mind will help".

"Fine..." you softly grumbled out, comedically plopping yourself down across Poe's lap. His face turned brighter at the sight of you sprawled all cutely over his lap. "Blegh! You reek of raccoon..." you teased him playfully, causing him to let out a mock gasp of offence.

"You have a point there..." he let out a chuckle, his eyes glowing when he saw you smiling up at him. "You're so pretty when you smile...~" he suddenly spoke in a more affectionate tone. It caught you by surprise, making your cheeks flush. You tried hiding your ever-growing grin behind your hand. "Aww, don't hide. I wanna see that adorable smile of yours" he tried gently prying your hands away, both of you giggling at the playful back and forward. "Fine, you wanna be stubborn? I'll just t-tickle you then!~". He'd usually get flustered by the t-word, but in this case he had an objective in mind, seeing that smile (and maybe hear those adorable snorts of laughter).

Before you could process what he said, your eyes widened as Poe's fingers started to delicately dance across your midriff. The flood of giggles was too strong to keep intact and they soon started to pour out while you kept your hand stubbornly stuck on your face and tried using your free one to playfully swat his own away.

"As adorable as those giggles are, I still want to see that smile~" you could see the teasing grin grow on your boyfriend's face as his fingers climbed up and down your sides like tiny spiders, occassionally giving your ribs a quick prod to get you to squeak.

"GyaHAha! P-Poe, t-this isn't fahahair!" you complained through your giggle fit. Your cheeks, all the way down your neck, starting to turn red in embarrassment.

"Now dear, I never said I played fair~" without further warning, he shot his wiggly fingers under your arms.

"WAH-! WAHAHAIT! S-STYAHAHAP!!" you thrashed and kicked your legs around. Your body practically bouncing in his lap. You couldn't hold it anymore and your arms soon cane crashing down. Poe let out a gasp at the sight of your smile, feeling his cheeks heat up a bit as he stopped tickling you.

"Your smile is... so beautiful" he spoke with a warm smile or his own forming. Your smile was so big and bright, nothing in this world could convince him otherwise of how highly he thought of it. He then snapped back to reality "O-oh, sorry! Did I take it too far...?" he asked concernedly, helping you sit up straight and rubbing soothing circles along your back.

"Ehehe... yeah, I'm fine" you replied with that same smile that always made his heart swoon for you without fail. "Actually, I think that just gave me an idea!~" you cheered out as you quickly went back to writing.

Poe looked a bit puzzled at first but decided to shrug it off, everyone gains inspiration in one way or another. "Glad I could help" he placed a gentle kiss on your temple before returning to his own desk, excitedly waiting to see what you'd cook up for him.

My Boyfriend's Back Chapter Thirty-Nine

"So…how was your date?" Randy sat on one side of the couch and I on the other. Reese was sitting on his lap, clinging to him. "It was good…I think…I don't know." I raised an eyebrow at him in question. "Okay…well, what was her name?" I asked. He murmured something that I couldn't hear. "What?" I asked. "Karen! Okay? It was Karen."

"Karen?" I asked. He nodded his head and rolled his eyes. "Yes, Karen as in Karen Kolchec," he said. My eyebrows shot up to my hairline. "Creepy Karen! Like, Karen who took your virginity in the porno section of the video store, where you are now the manager?!" He sighed and looked down at Reese. "Your mom is so dramatic." His fingers danced on her stomach making her laugh.

"She's not creepy! She's actually really nice," he said. I nodded my head, "sure, yeah, of course. That's why you were scared of her in high school…well, until she agreed to have sex with you…in the porno section, of course." He rolled his at me and let a wiggly Reese down so she could play with her toys. I stood up and walked to the kitchen with Randy close behind me.

"I was never afraid of her!" He argued and I laughed. "Right. Whatever you say, Ray." I handed him one of the beers from the pack he brought with him when he came over. "Can I ask you a serious question?" I turned around from the fridge after putting the pizza away and looked at him. "Um…yeah, of course," I said. I started wiping down the counters while he took time to form what he wanted to ask me. "I've been wanting to ask you this for a while now. Just don't get mad or upset, okay?"

I nodded my head, "I won't. I promise," I told him. I turned around to the sink, washing the few dishes that were in it from dinner. "Reese…she's umm…she's his isn't she?" I paused my movements and closed my eyes. It's been a couple days since Stu was here. I knew one day it was a possibility that someone would ask me this question. "Yn? Look, I'm not going to get mad or lecture you. I mean…it's kind of obvious, ya know? She looks like him."

I finished rinsing the last dish and set it down in the rack. I didn't turn around though. I couldn't. "Yes. He was at Windsor. I'd like to say it was only once but it wasn't. He kind of just showed up out of nowhere one night. I was in the studio alone in the middle of the night. That night there was that bad storm." Flashbacks played in my head of me running through the halls with Stu close behind. The thunder rumbling above and the lightning flashing so bright that it would light the hallways up.

"I always felt like someone was watching me…even before we left home. That night he showed up, chased me through the halls. Things happened. And they kept happening after that. After you…when I left the hospital after I knew you were in good hands, I went back to my dorm. He was there in my room, sitting on the couch. But it wasn't him who started it that time…it was me. He was behind everything at Windsor. Well…Hallie is the one that stabbed you. She thought getting rid of you would have made him happy."

"Has he been here? Does he know about her?" I didn't say anything. What was I going to say? 'Yeah, he was here and knows about her. Oh and also, I fucked him.' "Yn? Does he know about Reese?" I took a deep breath and turned around. The biggest lie ever left my fucking lips before I could stop the words. "No. I haven't seen him since that last night at Windsor when he killed what's-his-face. If he knows where I live, he hasn't shown up. Not yet…"

"Are you lying to me?" He asked. I gave him a look that said 'are you serious?' "Look, I'm just trying to look out for you two. He's a fucking psychopath, yn. You can't let him near her." Too late. "I know that, Randy. I think about it every fucking day! When is he going to show up? What will he do when he does? Fuck, I mean come on, we all know that ghostface will be back. Especially with a third movie being mad. We might have gone two years without people dying that are close to us…but that luck is going to end. And it's going to end soon."

"You don't know that. Maybe Stu won't come find you this time. I wish you would have told me he was at Windsor though. Or maybe told Dewey," he said. "And what? Risk your guys lives like that? No way. I still feel guilty for what happened to you, Ray. I mean, you almost died! You were in a coma for days!" He sighed and shook his head. "That was not your fault," he said. "Well, it feels like it is. Come on, Ray, I'm a fucking mess! I'm still…I'm still in love with him," I whispered the last part.

Before he could respond the phone rang and I walked over to answer it. "Hello?" I looked over at Randy to see him looking at me with concern. "Hey, Sid." His face relaxed a little but not much. "What?" I asked her. "Turn on the news!" She told me. I nodded my head even though she couldn't see me. "Hey, turn on the news, please." Randy walked over to the TV and turned it on before flicking through the channels and finding the news.

"Hollywood is reeling today from news of the murder of Controversial talk show host, Cotton Weary. Weary had only recently finished shooting a cameo as himself in the film "Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro", the third and final part in the famous horror series based on the Woodsboro and Windsor College Murders. Before his rise to television fame, Cotton had been imprisoned and was later exonerated for the murder of Maureen Prescott, his former Lover."

Randy muted the tv and turned around to look at me. It was completely silent. I didn't say anything; I didn't know what to say. Sidney was quiet on the other end of the line, too. It went on like that for what felt like forever. I knew who was behind this, and even if he wasn't the one to actually kill Cotton, he definitely had something to do with it. "He's back," I whispered.

And in the crowed, I see you with someone else.

paring: druig x fem!eternal!reader

summary: y/n is in love with druig and one night during a celebration she sees druig being close with makkari and she’s heartbroken.

a/n: based on hurricane drunk by Florence + the machine! also i have a headcanon that gilgamesh makes a special wine that allows the eternals to get drunk so thats what this came from. hope you enjoy! 💗

warning(s): jealousy, milsscomuacation, mutual pining, fluff, angst, reader flirting, alcohol consumption, smut references, both reader and druig having insecure thoughts, this is a lot longer than i thought it was gonna be. Also unedited!

Babylon

The night air was warm and the stars glimmered more brighter than usual. Sprite was surrounded by a crowed as she told the tales of the battle that had took place earlier that day. You watched as her hands moved to create illusions of Thena slicing open a deviant. The towns folk around you gasped and awed as the images above them changed in golden lights.

When she was finished the audience erupted in cheers and broke off into groups to continue the celebration. Music floated through the air as a band began to play a wistful tune and everyone almost instantly began to dance in the middle of the room. Which you saw Sersi being pulled into, who grabbed a very flustered Ikaris to join her.

You always stood off to the side and watched as couples joined into the dance with a sad expression on your features, wishing you had someone like that to dance with. To laugh and smile as your bodies were intertwined by limbs and harmonies.

You scanned your eyes amongst the crowd and watched people laugh and engage in conversation. It made you happy to see all the humans having a good time, someone had to right? Your eyes then saw Druig across the way and your heart skipped a beat. You have had a crush, as Sersi would call it, on him since you practically arrived on earth. You couldn’t really explain why you liked him so much, It was for different reasons. Maybe it was his dark hair and blue eyes, or maybe the compassion for humans he had. Either way you cared deeply for him, but you knew it was one sided.

You watched as Makkari appeared next to him in a flash and your heart sank at the smile he sent her. You can’t really make out what she's signing exactly but it makes Druig smile even wider as he talks with her. You almost feel like someone has taken your heart out and thrown it into the void, but not before stabbing it right in front of you. It was clear to you now seeing him interacting with her. Of course he would be in love with Makkari. How could he not be? She was brave, strong and smart. You however didn’t really see yourself that way, even if you were this grate Eternal.

Kingo suntured up to your side and you didn’t notice his presence until he bumped your shoulder with his. You jumped a little at the contact and turned your head to see him.

“Woah sorry, was I interrupting a deep thought there?” he questioned teasingly.

“No, just admiring the atmosphere.” a blush creeps up on your cheeks and you hope he doesn't noticed. ‘uh huh’ he wigglys his eye brows at you. He holds up a cup to you, taking it you nod in thanks.

“Thanks,” you take a sip. A taste of wine hits your tounge.

“Are you sure you weren’t admiring a certain tall dark haired, blue eyed jerk?” he jabs.

You almost choke on your drink at his words and your eyes widen. So he did notice you staring at Druig. Grate, here comes Kingos mockery or worse he was going to go gossip to Sprite and then you'd never get peace.

“I wasn’t looking at Druig.” You mumble into your cup, taking another sip.

“I think its cute you have a little crush on him,” he says. “Even if he is an ass, you should tell him how you feel.”

You shake your head.

“That's a horrible idea.” you say.

“Why? We don’t know how much longer were going to be here.” He offers.

As much as he was probably right, you wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of being right. You all didn’t know when Arishem would contact Ajak to let you all know when you were going home. After all the Deviants were now defeated and the humans were safe.

“I can’t! he likes Makkari anyways.” You pointed out.

You couldn’t help but look back at the pair again. It made tears well up in your eyes thinking about how you’ll never have something like that with someone, let alone with Druig. Druig pulls Makkari into a side hug before she zips off again. He looks out and sees you and Kingo staring at him and his eyes meet yours for a moment. Your breath catches in your throat and you tear your gaze away as a tear slipped down your cheek. You hopped that he couldn’t tell you were crying. You didn’t want Kingo to see you get all worked up either so you shook your head and bit back tears.

You suddenly had an epiphany. You looked down at the cup Kingo had handed you, swirling the liquid inside you sighed and began to lift the cup up to your lips and tilting your head back, downing the alcohol.

Bottoms up. you thought.

If you could just forget about your crush for one night. Forget Druig for one night maybe you could finally get over your dumb fantsy.

The taste of berries filled your tongue and the bittersweet flavor ran down your throat. It began to cloud your mind as you drank. Kingo watched in horror as you took only a few gulps and finished your cup. You let out a small hiccup and he raises his eyebrows at you.

“Hey, take it easy there.” he warns, holding his hand out to you.

“I'm fine.” you tell him.

You push past him in search of another drink and he is hot on your tail.

You found Gilgamesh holding a bottle when he put it down at the table he was seated at and you rushed over. picking it up you pour yourself a glass and chug that whole cup.

“Y/n, I don’t think this is such a good idea.”

Kingo advised.

Kingo considered you one of his closest friends, a sister even so he hated seeing you in distress. He wanted to help you in any way he could but he wasn’t sure what to do with your sudden burst of wanting to get completely drunk. He watched you drink and drink at least six cups of Gils special wine he made for these occasions. You were completely intoxicated at this point and everything looked blurry and you felt dizzy.

When you went to get one more cup Kingo finally stepped in and took it from your hand just before you brought it up to your lips. You pouted at him and whined.

“okay y/n/n, I think you’ve had enough for one night.” he warned. Pulling the cup away from your hands that were making grabbing motions for it as he was holding above your head out of your reach.

“Common Kingo, I just want one more glass!” You grumble still reaching for it.

“no! you've had enough.” he states firmly. “We should get you back to the Domo, you're super drunk right now.”

“Don’t be silly mister, I'm as sober as priest!” you slurred.

You were swaying around and you almost fell on your butt a few times. Kingo had put the cup down and you’re reaching up and poking his cheek with your pointer finger. Kingo huffs as he takes both your hands in his and pulls them away.

“Okay now Im definitely taking you to Ajak.” he starts pulling you along but you stop him.

“No!” you say frowning. “I wanna dance.”

He tries to keep tugging you in the direction he last saw Ajak but he doesn’t want to somehow end up hurting you.

“let's go dance!”

You pull him into the circle of people dancing to an upbeat rhythm. You let go of his hands and you're swaying to the beat on flimsy legs. As you moved around it almost looked like a baby faun learning to walk on its legs for the first time. You didn’t care. Your mind was too hazy to care about the eyes staring at you and the concerns as you let the music engulf your soul. It felt like you were on auto pilot, like you didn’t have control over anything but you did at the same time.

Sometimes later you were walking around on your own, pretty much making a fool out of yourself. At some point in the night you had taken off your shoes and were now dancing around barefoot. Kingo had lost you about fifteen minutes ago when he got distracted by a couple of maidens who wanted his attention. You didn’t care though you just kept dancing around not caring about anything around you.

You kept spinning around until your back was flush against something, or someone. You smiled dopily up at the person as your hand found its way into their hair. Your eyes were closed as you felt them put their hands on your hips firmly. It tickled you slightly and it made you squirm against the persons chest. The padded armor digging into your back as it arched against them.

“Kingo,” you giggle.

“Not quite.” the voice answered. You open your eyes and tried to adjust them. A pair of blue eyes instead of brown ones stared into yours. It was Druig, you smiled lazily and turned around throwing your arms around his neck. You’re completely unaware you were in your crushes arms who broke your heart every time you saw him.

“Druig!” You exclaimed.

He stands there looking at you with confusion as you’re swaying in his arms with a dopey grin on your face as you trip once more and now flush against him with your chest to his.

“What has gotten into you tonight little dove?” he hums.

“Well, I had this many cups of Gils wine and now I feel so grate.” You held up your hand and lifted four fingers in front of his face while you talked. If that were true there's no way you’d be this drunk with any other wine, but with Gilgamesh's special wine that he made if the Eternals ever wanted to get drunk, you would be hammered in minutes.

“Sounds to me like your drunk little one,” he raises his eyebrows.

“Im not drunk,” you frown.

“Oh yeah? what’s 34 x56?” He smirks.

you ponder for a moment and struch your nose not a second later, a sign that you gave up on the thought.

“Pfft, you know I hate math Druig!” You say waving your hand. He chuckles mostly to himself at your antics. Druig wasn’t sure what to do but as he stood there with you in his arms, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of comfort having you be this close to him. As you rambled on about something completely random, Kingo found you came over and widened his eyes at the sight before him.

“Y/n! i've been looking all over for you.” he says.

“Kingo!” you shout. “Ive just been talking with Druig you know he's a good listener?”

He looks between you both a little stund to see you clinging to Druig.

“Did you have more to drink even though I told you not too?”

“I only had four more, besides I'm busy with Druig.”

“Im taking you to bed missy.”

Kingo reaches to pry you off of Druig and when he does you break out of Kingos hold and wrap your arms around Druig‘s torso and smile contently, Burying your face in his neck. You can’t see but Druig is blushing profusely at your actions and Kingo has an amused look on his face. Druig glares daggers at Kingo when his snicker catches his ears.

“Don’t. say. a. word.” Druig warns at a still smirking Kingo.

“I'm gonna go find, Ajak stay here.” he informs him. Taking off now you and Druig are left alone again.

“You know you’re my favorite person?” You look up.

Druigs heart beat speeds up at this. He knows he doesn’t get along with everyone in the team. Sprite annoyings him, he thinks ikaris is an arrogant ass. Everyone else he kinda tolerates, but you and Makkari he’s found to care for the most. Makkari always seems to know what hes thinking before he even knows it and they had grown a close friendship. You however, you always had this soft disposition about you everyone seemed to gravitate towards. So for you to say hes your favorite person brings something to the surface of his feelings to you.

He just blinks back at you speechless, his thoughts falter for a moment thinking maybe because your mind was so clouded you didn’t really know what you were saying. One look at your doe eyes stops his rambling brain.

“You have the most pretty eyes,” you suddenly say, causing him to blush once more. You smile noticing this.

“You’re so cute when you blush,” you giggle.

After a minute or so of you making the brooding eternal turn a deep scarlet.

Kingo comes back with Ajak followed by Gilgamesh, Sprite and Sersi. They all crowded around you both with amused smirks seeing you being so cuddly around Druig holding him like a life line.

“I see the problem.” Ajak speaks.

“How is it even possible that she's drunk?.” Sprite asks.

“I made it that way on purpose, just for fun if we ever wanted to know what it was like to get drunk like humans do, although I didn’t think ” Gilgamesh says.

Ajak lifts his hands in the air as gold sybols appear on her finger tips, she walks towards you and reaches up to your head. She places her finger tips on your temples and your eyes roll back and you pass out. You go slump in Druigs arms as he catches you. He places his arm under you legs and swopes you up cradling you against his chest.

“Im sorry she was so cligy to you Druig but that just happens to be the side affects.” Gilgamesh shurgs. “I'll take her back to the Domo”

Gilgamesh makes a move to take you from Druig but a protectiveness lurches up from him before he realizes.

“No it's okay, I can take her back to the Domo.” Druig’s tone is a little possessive. When everyone gives him a confused look he realizes and clears his throat.

“All right..” Gill shrugs.

Everyone looks at him befuddled with wanting to take care of you. Ajak just watches him with a knowing look as he maneuvers carefully past the group and makes a beeline to the starship.

He reached your room without runing into any of the other Eternals. Thankfully. He laid you down on the bed, your sandals were still vacant from your feet and he didn’t even want to think about undressing you so you stayed in your festival robes. He pulled the covers over your body and tucked you in, brushing a stay piece of hair out of your eyes.

You stirred at the touch and your eyes blinked open looking up at him softly. Druig was about to leave when you snatched his wrist. He looked back at you and your eyes were now pleading for him.

“will you stay?” you muttered your mind was still fuzzy but slowly coming back.

He nodded and moved so he was against your headboard and you laid your head on his peck and snuggled into him.

“You know I cared about you?” you mumbled, sleep taking over your mind.

He inhaled as you said that. No one has ever said anything like that to him in all his years. Again he wasn’t sure if it was because you were still so intoxicated or if it was making you speak your mind for once. You were always so shy when it came to talking, its not like you were quiet around Kingo thought, it took you time to warm up to everyone, but with Druig you seemed the most shy around. Deep in his heart he wanted that to be true, wanted you to care for him the same way he did. But he was terrible at expressing his feelings and others. With Makkari it was easy because she got alone well with him and the two shared a close bond.

When she came up to him tonight, she saw he was staring at you from across the hall. She teased him about it, saying how obvious he was being, but you were too occupied with the

He watched as you fell into a deep slumber a soft smile on your lips. He soon too fell asleep with you in his arms.

the next morning you woke up with a throbbing headache. You were confused as you took in your surroundings. You were in bed but still in your same clothes from the party last night. Feeling warmth beneath you it took you a second to realize someone was holding you. Panic ran through your brain as you thought about last night. You got so drunk last night you can’t remember a thing. You slowly sat up trying not to wake the person and when you saw who it was, you're jaw dropped.

Druig was sleeping and snoring softly against your headboard. You sat up more and your mind raced. What the hell did this mean exactly? Then you thought the worst thing was you had slept with him last night. As small anxiety attack bilt Druig was waking up due to your movement. He saw you in a panic state and he reached out to put an arm on your shoulder.

“Hey, you okay?” he asked, breaking you out of your trance.

“What the hell happened last night?” you responded.

“You got pretty drunk last night and I took you back to your room and made sure you were okay,” he explains. “You asked me to stay, so I did.”

You were so confused.

“Did anything else happen… like between us?…” you motion your finger between you and his eyes widen and cheeks turn bright red, knowing exactly what you were implying.

“No, no, of course not, you did say some things though..” he trails off.

That caught your attention. You looked at him mortified and a feeling settled in your stomach, the nerves building up again. You prayed to arishem you didn’t say anything you’ll regret or worse.

“What exactly did I say?”

He shrugged and looked right into your eyes.

“Just that, you cared about me and…”

He kept trailing off like he didn’t want to tell you, like some sort of secret.

“You kept complmenting me, whatever, Its not like you meant it, you were drunk.” he brushed it off.

You thought, now or never.

“What if i did?” you voiced.

“what?”

“mean those things…”

There was pause.

“Then what If i told you I felt the same?”

Your breath hitched. You could hear your own heartbeat in your ears and a blush creep up your cheeks. Could it be true? All this time pining over Druig you thought he could never love you the same way but here he was, in your bed as both of you stared at each other. A deep feeling of confession sat on your tongue as he moved closer to you, his knees now touching your tucked legs. But it quickly went away and you slumped when you remembered last night.

“Yeah but you love Makkari.” You say.

He looks taken back at your words. Like you just slapped him and he frowns.

“I don’t love Makkari like that. We're just friends.”

“Then how come you two were talking last night? laughing and smiling you're always so close and off to the side together!” You accuse.

“She was trying to give me advice, get me to talk to you. She knew that I liked you and knew Id never have the courage to admit my true feelings for you!” He explains.

Now you felt stupid. You mentally hit your head. How could you be so quick to assume that they were together. You regret even mentioning Makkari as you’re sure you’ve ruined any chance you thought you had with the mind controler.

Druig searched your face as you sat there deep in thought. He took your hands resting on your lap into his and rubbed your knuckles with his thumbs. It took you right out of your trance and you gazed into his blue eyes as he spoke from his heart.

“I have cared about you since we arrived on this planet… and I didn’t realize my feelings until last night, when I saw you talking with Kingo I just felt this rage buildup inside me and I didn’t want him near you, I wanted to be the one laughing and standing next to you.” He took a deep breath and closed his eyes trying to calm himself down. He's waited so long to finally get you alone and tell you this for so long and now he's had the courage to finally do it and it scares him.

“I don’t want to lose you, ever. And I know Im not as strong as the others or-“

You thought it was cute that he was nervous and rambling, but you couldn’t bear to hear him talk himself down like that. You took his face in your hands and forced him to look you in the eyes and he immediately stopped. His heart sped up when you leaned your forehead to his.

He was so much more than anything you could hope for and you told him that. You could see his face light up with your admirational comments. You wanted to tell him over and over how special he was, not just as a person but to you as well.

“I care about you too.” you say tearfully, a small smile grazing your lips and he sighs.

“I'm sorry for assuming you liked Makkari, I should’ve just seen that you two were nothing more than friends but I was just so jealous!” You say.

“You never have to apologize my love, especially to me.” He professed.

“And you sir never have to be anything more than yourself. I love you for everything you are.” You gush. There's a dopey smile on his face when you finish and he can’t take it anymore. the love he had for you was erupting more in his chest and he leaned forward and captured your lips with his in a soft kiss. You pulled you closer by the waist. You laughed into his mouth and he smiled against your lips as everything you’ve both wanted to say pours into this kiss. You were never felt so happy in your existence that Druig was finally yours and you were his.
