Ume in canon is already flirtatious, so GB!Ume is def a fuckboy of some sort 😂 Success rate varies lmfaooo
I think GB!Zinny is more popular than Zinny, since a cold shoulder personality is usually more tolerated when it comes to men 😮💨(in canon, she's more gossiped about. Especially from Frosties grrrr. But I'm sure there are some guys who still try to hit on her. Anywayssss)
GB!Zinny only has eyes for a certain blonde and brunette duo ~ 🤭
I realize I've never talked about this before, but I really just want to appreciate the friendship between Kaito and Luca quite honestly. Especially after finishing s1. Because. Oh My God
Imagine loving someone so much that losing them makes you go fucking insane. You've spent a relatively short time together, there's still so much you don't know about each other, but you've been through Hell together so many times and you've brought out the best in each other because of it. You've both gotten stronger together. You were supposed to graduate together, supposed to spend years together. Then they fucking die.
Like. Imagine being Luca in that moment. Regardless of if he wanted it to happen or not, he was prepared to lose MC. Her death was already predetermined, her chances of being saved were slim to none.
Luca was not, in any way, prepared to lose Kaito.
His best friend, the guy who he rescued time and time again, the guy who he watched improve every day for countless months, the guy who was supposed to be by his side for pretty much his entire time at Darkwick-- just gone. Torn away from him, all for being the hero that Luca had always believed him to be.

A/n: Happy pride month! This a short fic I wrote for them, honestly I am not very proud of it cause it's all over the place. But yeah, It's fine I think. My idea for this was their love was rushed cause If i remember the mission in the past, it was just like a week? This is just rushed my bad </3 so Princess Nina never got to fight for their love. And YOU never got to witness that.
So maybe in another timeline, you weren't a cursed girl and she wasn't a princess that carried the crown.
Nina always wondered what love meant when she started liking Jin Kamurai. He was mesmerizing, stoic but so gentlemanly, what's not to like about him?
She thought you were a problem when you came as a maid for her prince charming. At first, Nina really tried to be civil, but… for some reason.
She couldn't with you.
While Jin was busy talking with her older brothers , you ended up mingling with her . She thought "great, the maid's talking with me" it was rude, but it made her jealous how Jin's eyes seemed to sparkle ever so slightly when you talk with him.
But why…
Why does she feel the same? realizing that she wanted to be friends with you was just after a few minutes of talking. The way you compose yourself, make her laugh. It's so addicting to finally have a friend that she felt like she can joke with.
Was it normal for a friend to make her heart flutter?
The next few days, the banquet continued, it made Nina happy since she get to see you! Rushing to your side, she jumps into your arms, making you jolt and catch her.
"Honor roll!" she squeals, as you wrap your arms around her waist, "Princess" you greet, laughing at how enthusiastic she was at seeing you. "Good morning to you too" you added, placing her down but her hands never left your shoulders, wrapping it around and clinging to you.
"Nina…" one of her elder brothers sigh, making you glance at them with a "it's okay" look. Jin paid no heed, at least the Princess is off his back and you can take care of her.
"Are you busy?" she asked, deciding to let you go but she holds both of your hands. Your gaze landed on one of the icings on her cheeks. She must've eaten a vanilla pudding? or something
Your hand raising up to her cheek and using your thumb to wipe it off cause her to blush hard. "I-" she stutters, touching the part you touched so obliviously.
Oh, how you flirt with the princess is crazy; even Jin can't make her heart thump like this.
"answer my question!" she whines while you lick your thumb. "Am i busy?" you repeated, making her nod. "I…" you glance at Jin's retreating figure, hoping to ask if you're needed further for this mission.
Sensing your question, Tohma smiled at Nina. "I believe that our Honor roll doesn't have any pressing matters that needs to be addressed, so you're free to have her" Both Tohma and Nina beamed at each other, making you droop.
"I'm not a pet you know.." you mutter but Nina either ignored that or didn't hear, her hand gripping on your wrist and dragging you out to the balcony of the massive venue. She felt the air swaying her hair, making her sigh. "The sky looks pretty today, don't you think?" she asked, looking back at you.
You walked closer by her side. It was indeed windy, luckily for you. None of your trinkets seemed to fly away with it. Honestly, you weren't really given much to work on when you arrived here. Jin and Tohma doing most of the investigation while you're left to accompany Princess Nina.
Princess Nina at first was pretty distant with you. Your theory was that she thinks you're stealing Jin from her, but you weren't. She has a pretty good taste…. okay maybe you're a bit too kind to her to say that. Questionable at most is her taste.
Lately though, she's been hanging out with you more than she does with Jin. If anything, it looked like she's avoiding Jin all together. At one point even to the point she excuses herself when he talks to her just to go to you.
It was sweet, but you hoped Jin wasn't feeling left out or anything. "You know" your thoughts were halted when you heard her gentle voice, making you turn your attention to her. "When my father died. I was worried about not being able to feel what love was" she muttered, reaching to the sky as if she wants to gently hold every flicker it does.
"They had a good relationship, my parents" she added, her eyes twinkling alongside. "My father told me that no matter what happens, I should always pick the person that I don't feel like my energy is being zapped away" she lets her hand dangle, resting her cheek on her arm as she looks at you. "Someone who I see myself marrying"
You freeze, staring at the way she's looking at you. It felt like… how she was staring at Jin. "Your highness" you frown. She's not supposed to…
You rather not think of the possibility. "I hope you find a good man, Your highness" deflecting her, you bowed to her. Making her stand up straight. "What if I don't want a man?" she asked, going closer to you but you backed away, not wanting to look into her eyes.
"Honor roll" she frowns, reaching on your hand but you clenched your fist, nails digging into your skin. "You're royalty" you whispered, voice so low that you thought she wouldn't hear.
But knowing Nina for a few days. She learnt your pattern. The way you hesitate. "What does me being royalty do?" she grabs your wrist, making you look at her, but you still didn't want to look. "Am I disgusting?" her voice cracked, making you snap your gaze to her. "No- your highness of course not!" you grab her wrists back. "You're beautiful! brave and lovely!"
"I never felt so happy being with you" Nina's tears starting rolling down her cheeks when you admitted that. "Then why do you avoid me?" she asked. "We can run away, the crown wouldn't be in my hands, my brothers are the ones that inherit it!"
"You don't understand" you shudder, seeing the desperation in her eyes as she grips on your shoulders, pushing you on the wall. "Then make ME understand!" she yells,trying to get through the hazy fog that makes your heart not open up to her.
"Please" Your throat felt like it's constricting itself, a small rock blocking your windpipe while watching her beg. You wanted to add so many reasons as to why you couldn't love her. But you can't say it. Lest, she'd get more hurt by it.
"I'm sorry" was the only thing you can muster to say, head drooping as you can physically see Nina's heart breaking.
You felt her pull away, wiping her own tears that you used to wipe. "I won't give up" she added, making your eyes widen. "What?" you asked, confused, finally making eye contact. You expected hurt and the expression of giving up on her. But all you saw was that cute stubbornness that you ended up finding endearing about her.
"I'll make you fall for me" she points at you, as if declaring you hers. Making you crack a smile, "Princess - please" you tried to protest, but it's so weakly that she just huffs and leaned closer, giving you a kiss on the cheek. Leaving a mark on you.
"I'm serious Honor roll!" she huffs as her elder brothers call out to her, saying that it was time to rest. You tried to wipe your cheek with a hankerchief, flinching when you realized that it was a permanent type.
"That sly princess…" you mumble, getting called by Jin, needing to go back to Darkwick after the ball.
Kaito was the first to notice the kiss mark, making a remark about being jealous on who got to give you a kiss first, not caring if it was a man or a woman. While Jin scowled. "Did the princess give you that?" he asked, trying his best to rub your cheek so hard that it turned red. "Ow ow!" you pout, pushing his hand away. "Yes, now will you stop trying to rip my skin off?" you asked, sighing while he hmphs and goes to the passenger seat.
This made you raise your eyebrow, confused why he's suddenly acting like a petulant child. Trying to look at Tohma for any answers, he just kept his gaze away from you and straight to the car.
Oh well, hopefully it's a one time thing and he wouldn't try and be so aggressive with you.
Unfortunately, you came back to the massive ball with a big red lipstick mark on your cheek, sighing as some maids and butlers give you curious looks. It's not your fault that whatever this lipstick is. It's insanely strong. You even tried detergent on it or dishsoap and it won't come out.
Time flies honestly. You ended up spending time with Princess Nina instead of doing most of the mission. You felt guilty so you wanted to try and focus on it especially when it's the last day.
You grabbed the hankerchief that she gave you from the very first time you talked with each other. You kept it cause of how fancy the fabric was. You doubt this was just a measly 5 dollars or something. This has to be more than your budget for food.
When Nina finally managed to see you again, she rushed towards you, only to be held by Jin. His hand wrapping around her as he kisses it as courtesy. "Jin?!" she squeaked, making you look towards them in shocked. Heck even the other ghouls froze. "Princess, did you left a mark on my maid?" he asked, staring at her blankly. But it didn't seem to make Nina falter.
"What makes you think of that, Dear Jin?" she asked, pulling her hand away and giving a courteous bow to him. "I merely gave a token of gratitude to her, she's one of the best companions I've ever had" she opens her fan, looking up and meeting his eyes.
If you were dense you wouldn't notice the sparks flying when they had a stare down.
"Nina" one of the eldest brothers called, making her look away when the man placed his hand on her shoulder, leaning down to tell her something important that no one should probably no.
You saw how her expression turned from normal to serious. Making her press her hand on her chin. "Okay.." she answered. "It seems like me and my brothers have pressing matters to attend to" her gaze landing directly on you once again. Making you freeze. "I'll see you, all later"
You nod along side with your other ghouls, Watching as she leaves.
You didn't realize that was the last time you'll be able to see her normal… When every light darkened, Tohma ended up guiding you to where the anomalies are. The dullahan. A dangerous headless knight. And the fact that you were defenseless, not being able to be the "knight" for the princess when she gripped on Dullahan's head, screaming for it to take her life.
You thought that she would fight?
Was that all a lie?
When the anomaly was subdued. Nina fell down on the floor, rushing towards her side to comfort her. "Princess-" you frowned. Everything happened to fast just in a blink of an eye.
Nina didn't even managed to talk between her sobs. The cleaners helping her stand and walk away. You stood there, your uniform drenched with blood. You wanted to catch up to her, but Tohma stopped you. Talking about letting the cleaners handle it.
