It was tiring.
It drained you.
Helping everyone, cleaning up everyone and Crowley's mess, and then... getting nothing in return. It was always you to blame. It wasnāt your fault you were brought here so why are you always to blame? Why is it always you who is unlucky?
You sighed staring up at the night sky, tired and angry. The built up rage was lighting something sinister within you; but you had hope, one little spec of hope, that Crowley finally managed to find some way to bring you back; sure, you have friends here but what about your friends back home? Your family? You wanted some sort of normality just for once.
Surely you were brought here because youāre special, right? You must have some kind of role other than being just- there
You stared ahead, out of the window of ramshackle, grim was long asleep, but you simply just couldnāt bring yourself to, no, not with all these feelings and thoughts mixing in; but slowly the exhaustion finally kicked in and you found yourself succumbing to slumber.
Drip drip
The next day you felt off, something just did not feel right, and it wasnāt because of someone... No, it was because of you or rather something within you.
Every little thing was irritating you, your senses felt overstimulated, so you left, not bothering to explain to the trio where you were going, you just wanted to be alone.
The walk to the garden was quiet and peaceful... finally some alone time, you thought.
āAh prefect! There you are, could you get these....ā of course there had to be disturbances, it just wasnāt your day today.
āsure, and uh, sir? Have you found a way back home?ā
āah! Home.. Haha of course! But lately I have been very busy for some things to help the school!ā
āright.ā you replied, ānow if I shall I've got other matters to attend toā crowley said hastily leaving
After finishing what he asked for, you finally had time to spare for yourself, but you were wrong. Walking to crowleyās office you wondered what the hell those three idiots have caused again, in fact, what have they not caused?
Drip
You swung the door open and entered the headmagesā office āprefect! Perfect timing!ā
āwhat happened now?ā
āWell, these three have broken something, and as the prefect of ramshackle it is your utmost responsibility to take care of them, and you failed to do so... again.ā crowley sighed
this was incredulous! You were busy and did not know what was happening, so why are you to blame once again. āwhat!? It wasnāt even my fault sir- I was doing what you asked me to-ā
Drip drip
āah ah, but you were assigned to keep them out of trouble as well!ā he replied in that sickenly voice of his, feigning innocence and what not
āI-ā you were about to protest when another voice piped in āhey! We did it so punish us instead, just leave my henchman alone!ā grim said running by your side, sure he may be a little menace at times but he is your friend, and he just couldnāt stand there while his beloved human was getting blamed for something she didnāt even do.
Deuce and ace nodded as well agreeing, āyeah! They werenāt even there itās all on us three, sirā
He couldnāt just take all the blame on you! You did nothing wrong.
āListen crowley, I did absolutely fucking nothing! I wasnāt there how was I supposed to know?!ā you screamed, finally having enough of all the shit heās put you up for, hell even grim stood by you.
Crowley, ace, and deuce were stunned, they didnāt expect their quiet and kind prefect to just scream out of nowhere!
āPrefect! What is this kind of behav-ā
āShut up! All you have ever done for me is treat me like some sort of fucking servant! Have you even worked on finding a way back to my home?!ā you screamed, it seemed that all your bottled up emotions have finally decided to spill
āWell- yes I am working on it-ā crowley replied, but you knew better than to believe what he said
āOh really? Do you even work at all? Cause it seems to me like you have been lazing around being fucking incompetent! Overblots happen every single month, and who must clean it up? ME! All your work? IT'S ON ME!ā
Drip...
āWe wouldnāt have had any overblots if only you actually cared!ā
Drip drip..
āIt's because of your negligence, lack of involvement and greedy ideals thatās whatās getting us wrapped up into a mess!ā
Drip..
āhave you even considered what I've felt? I act like it doesnāt bother me, but I deeply miss my home!ā
Drip drip...
āYou talk as if youāre some kind, responsible person BUT. YOU. ARE. NOT!ā
ā¦.
The room was silent as everyone tried to get themselves over the shock and horrid, grim was seething beside you, he didnāt like the fact crowley kept on stressing you out.
You were tired of his selfishness, his lack of care, for the betterment. A gnawing darkness came from within, slowly little droplets fell from your eyes, great you were crying now, you thought as you reached up to smudge it away..
Again and again, but it seemed to just keep coming, you couldnāt understand why.
Horrified gasps were heard in front of you; deuce stared wide eyed, and ace felt guilt. ā[n-name]ā
āhenchman..! this is all your fault you damned mage!ā grim yelled at crowley, he looked genuinely worried; how could he? How could he cause [name] such pain that sheās slowly finally, succumb to the darkness?
You finally understood what was happening, looking down at your hands, it wasn't tears, it was ink.
The magicless student was actually... overblotting.
Itās suffocating, the gnawing darkness from earlier has now fully enveloped you. Staggering back, you were shaking, it hurts... it hurts! you said not even realizing you were screaming in agony. Unknown to you grim was starting to overblot as well, he just couldnāt keep it in anymore...
āSo painful... MAKE IT STOP! PLEASE-ā you sobbed in anguish, it felt like you were too small for your own skin...
Riiiip
Three pairs of inked wings came out from the rip on your back, the other three were downright horrified.
āyou two.. Get the dorm leaders.ā crowley said āwhat!? What abou-ā
āGO!ā ace and deuce had no other choice but to do so.
The word slowly started to blur out as you succumb to the outcome of your pure unfiltered rage. Your appearance drastically changed, your hair was longer ending in white, defying gravity itself as it slowly floated, your eyes became slitted as another pair opened just below it, and finally a halo of thorns formed just right above your head, as if it was some sort of mock to you.
You were good, you followed everything that was said, and now here your reward is, to be in the form of one of the most kind and known celestial beings, an angel; but was it really a reward when you are simply a mock version of it? A version made from hate; Your hate, despair, and suffering.
You embraced this new form with open arms, it was you, after all. Grim was beside you, oh little grim, he didnāt seem so weak now, a tailed beast he has become, fire burning hotter than before. Mounting the huge beast, you both headed for the courtyard, leaving that part of the building in ruins.
āhousewarden!ā ace and deuce busted in the meeting room, panting as they ran from the whole other side of the building
āAce? Deuce? You clearly see there is a meeting happening right now. I will not tolerate such beh-ā riddle said in disappointment but was cut off by the two first years ānow is NOT the time, [name]- she-" deuce panted.
āspit it out you idiots, I've got no time here.ā leona spat out, just then a loud screech can be heard, loud enough to shake the room abit, now this caught their attention.
ā[name] has overblotted we donāt know how-ā
The housewardens all looked at the two in shock, running out and to the courtyards.
Destruction, chaos, and fire was what they reached to. The screams of horror rang throughout the entirety of the school, and the once magicless, helpless prefect was the cause of it all, laughing as they tore the school down and reduced it to nothing but rubbles of ashes.
āwhat the hell have you become [name]!? Snap out of it!ā screamed azul; they were terrified, this... This was nothing to their overblot, right now, it was pure destruction, they aimed to obliterate this place.
Where you go, I go
Ace and deuce and the other first years have finally arrived at the scene
What you see, I see
They stared in disbelief at what their beloved friends had become ā[NAME]! PLEASE! COME BACK TO US!ā
I know I'd never be me
ā[name!]ā, āPrefect!ā, āCome on [name]!ā, āPLEASE!ā
Without the security of your loving arms, keeping me from harm
They shot magic at you, but grim shielded you away from them, screeching at them to get away
Put your hand in my hand and we'll stand
Your wings finally spread to their full lengths for the first time; covering the courtyard in itsā shadow as you take flight to the heavens above. You were different, your blot just wasnāt caused by magic, no... It was created from within you, it was made from your pure ravenous rage.
āYouve all caused me to BE like THIS! You donāt know what itās like... NEVER.ā
Let the sky fall
They look up in shock as the once dark skies have parted to let the sunās glow shine down onto you, if it werenāt the current circumstances, you would have looked ethreal.
-let the sky fall-
āNo..ā Malleus mumbled, he didnāt want to lose you, no, not this early...
When it crumbles
āMy fury... will never be quelledā you raised your hand as the ground shook, and tore itself into crumbs, slowly floating to the high heavens
-when it crumbles-
They didnāt want to hurt you, but this was too much.
We will stand tall
-we will stand tall-
Face it all together
You were dear to them, but they cannot just let this continue...
Let the sky fall
-let the sky fall-
Spears made of pure onyx blot rained down to the land, and oh how the loose beast heavily destroyed the land
When it crumbles -when it crumbles-
We will stand tall -we will stand tall-
Face it all together...
At sky fall...
Let the sky fall
The sky... it truly felt like it crumbled down
onto them
We will stand tall
At sky fall
As the rubble arose to the now blood red sky, a broken shard of mirror flew past you showing your reflection
ā My father raised me to act with honor, but that honor is hanging by a thread that grows more precarious with every moment I spend in your presence. You are the bane of my existence and the object of all my desires. Night and day, I dream of you. ā
TW First years see female mc as their mother figure and literally call her "mom/mum/ma/mother dearest" and dorm leaders overhear and their reaction on it, please
Housewardens Reactions to MC Being Called 'Mom' by First Years
Riddle:
Was confused at first.
You and Riddle were sitting in the Heartslabyul lounge having tea, and all he hears in the back is Ace and Deuce going:
"Why is mom here?"
"Housewarden, why are you having tea with my mother?"
Is trying so hard not to spit out tea.
Questions why they are calling you their mom and finds it very weird.
Does not get used to them calling you mom but just lets it be. Eventually.
Leona:
"Mom, why are you sleeping with Leona?"
EXCUSE YOU WHAT?!
Jumps up from napping with you and stares Jack in the eyes.
Leona has never met Jack's mother, and doesn't want to.
And you answer so casually to it, like what?
Questions what the heck is wrong with Jack.
Is creeped out by the first years calling you mom, but doesn't want to know in fear of the answer.
Azul:
Was politely having a conversation with you, and Azul threw a few jokes in here and there.
"Stop flirting with my mother."
Freezes. Is so confused because you didn't give birth to anyone at NRC.
Asks about the name calling and it takes so long to get used to it.
Just- accepts it after knowing it's because they see you as a mother figure.
Kalim:
Just stands there with his mind blank of what Ace just said.
"Mother dearest, can I practice fire magic on Grim, he's being annoying."
Since when are you a mom? Fully believes it. Also, poor Grim, roasted cat probably doesn't taste good.
You have to explain. He finds it sweet after he gets it but calls you friend still.
Asks you "How are your children doing?" With complete sweetness every time he talks with you.
Vil:
You took care of his plants that he uses to make skincare products for three days since he was so so busy and couldn't squeeze in the time. You did such a wonderful job at it too, so he gave you a kiss on the cheek as a reward.
"Um, sorry to disturb you, but could you not kiss mom in front of me?"
Is this some type of joke? It is physically impossible that Epel is your child.
Ohh, it's because he sees you as a mother figure. That makes more sense now, that you 'adopted' Epel.
Doesn't really care, but calls Epel out for sass.
Idia:
Doesn't mind that the first years call you mom because he hears it so often. Ortho refers to you as 'sis' (for sister), so...
Refers to the first years as your children.
"Do your children want to verse us in duos?"
Is pretty chill about it.
Malleus:
Is confused when Sebek calls you 'mother', but has always known that you have a nurturing and very caring side to you.
Understands why Sebek and the other first years call you mom, and finds that the sentiment towards you is quite sweet of them.
Understands that you have no knowledge of this world, you're human, and that you couldn't have given birth to Sebek.
Is okay with it really, unless you get in trouble for something Ace did which had nothing to do with you.

āAre you sure about this, my dear? This is a dangerous mission.ā Pantalone sighs, worry evident in his tone. His hands were laid at your shoulders, and he was looking at you with so much care and worry on his face.
āRelax my love, I'm positive that nothing bad will happen to me. Besides, I simply cannot turn down a mission from the Tsaritsa.ā You give your lover a reassuring smile, placing a hand on his shoulder as you caress his face with the other.
āI do admit that it is a dangerous mission, but I assure you that I will return to you next week.ā You reassure him, giving him a quick kiss on the lips right after you speak.
Pantalone didn't say a word and just sighed. He returned your little kiss, peppering more and more kisses at different parts of your faces as well. After that, he placed one more kiss on your forehead that lasted a little more while.
āJust please take care, my dearest. Alright? I love you and I don't want anything to happen to you.ā He says in defeat, bringing you to a tight hug.
āI love you more, Pantalone. Don't worry, everything will go smoothly. Now then, time to depart to Inazuma. Take care as well love.ā You say to him, as you bring one final kiss to his nose bridge.
You wave your last goodbyes to each other, and you finally board the ship to Inazuma. Your mission is to take the Electro Archon's gnosis with Scaramouche. Whatever tragedy that happens, you will face it and make sure to defeat every obstacle that interrupts your path.
ā
āA duel, with me..?ā You scoff at the traveller's bold statement. They want to fight you? Well bring it on. You chuckle darklyāsurely the traveller doesn't realize your strength. He wants to fight you? The eighth fatui harbinger? Such a foolish thing to do.
āProceed.ā The Raiden Shogun says, which causes you to stay speechless for a few moments. You look between the Shogun and the Traveller, rolling your eyes with a huff.
You step forward, face to face with the traveller. āI will make sure that not even ashes will remain, Traveller. I'm not sure you realize how much more powerful I am than you.ā The Traveller looked at you with disbelief, a frown appearing on their forehead.
And thus began the duel to death.
ā
āT-this cannotā¦ beā¦ this is impossible. Ridiculous..! Absolutelyā¦ atrocious..!ā You scream. You have lost the duel to the lowly Traveller. You were terribly wounded, and you needed help. Where was Scaramouche? Did he abandon you? Noā¦ he couldn't haveā¦
You were reaching for the exit of the Tenshukaku, planning to make an escape. But you couldn't walk properly, your body was weak and frail. You were cursing inside, the pain was unbearable.
The Raiden Shogun started to walk towards you, approaching your weak form. She was holding her lightning sword, and you knew what she was planning to do.
āD-don't! Don't you dare come near meā¦ You..! You weak and pathetic lotā¦ The Tsaritsa will hear about this..! No, no no..! Don't you dare slash meā¦ā You try to back away from the Shogun. But then againāyou couldn't walk properly.
You decided to plan one more thing, and that isāto reach for the Shogun's gnosis.
āI hate youā¦ I hate all of you..!ā You shout, trying to reach the Shogun to grab her gnosis. But it was too late.
The Raiden Shogun has killed you. You were gone, forever.
āI'm sorryā¦ Pantaloneā¦ I won't be returning home.ā You cry, and those were your last and final words before you turned to ashes.
ā
Meanwhile, Pantalone was peacefully working at the bank. Signing papers, reviewing the bank's current state, anything that involves that.
But he felt off. Something doesn't seem right. Worry washed his face. His mind was full of you. Where were you? How are you doing? Any updates regarding the mission?
Pantalone sighed as he realized he messed up his signature. He decided to step out of his office and go outside to calm down for a bit. He reassured himself that you were doing well, and you probably succeeded with the mission.
As he stepped outside, he took a deep breath of fresh air. He fixed his glasses and looked around, and suddenly saw a few fatui guards rushing to him, looking nervous and quite scared. Pantalone noticed this, and stood upright.
āM-Master Regratorā¦ We have some terribleā¦ newsā¦ā The fatui gulped, bowing down to him.
Pantalone was worried about why they acted so nervously. He cleared his throat and ordered āSpeak up, do not be scared.ā
The fatui guards looked at each other, and finally spoke up.
āOur condolencesā¦ Lord Regratorā¦ā The fatui gulped again, and Pantalone's eyes widened. Could it be..?
āYour lover, the Eighth Harbingerāhas been killed in Inazumaā¦ By the Raiden Shogun herself.ā The fatui bowed down to the ground once again, practically almost kissing it.
Pantalone's eyes widened more, tears starting to flow out of his eyes. He had an angry expression on his face, his hand clenched in fury. āLeave! Get away..!ā Pantalone ordered the fatui guards, and the fatui panicked and ran away as fast as they could. After all, Regrator was a man who should not be angered, or else it would wreak havoc.
After the fatui finally left him alone, Pantalone dropped to his knees. More tears started to fall from his eyes, as his eyeglasses dropped to the ground with a thud.
He screamed. He screamed out all the anger, the rage, he let it all out.
You were deadāhis precious beloved was dead. He cried loudly, hitting the ground in anger. He screamed and shouted, calling out your name and begging you to return back to him.
likes and rblgs are highly appreciated !! thank u all for the support, here is some angst to return the kindness you all have showed meš„ŗš„ŗšš¤Æ
Summary: Pantalone said heād join you after his work, but it seems like heās not done yet?
A/N: Im one hour early but fuck it, sweat are dripping down my face the more i resist the urge of posting this.
Youāve gone off to bed alone, Pantalone had said heād join you after heās done with his work. It was the middle of the night when you awoke to a still and empty space beside you on the bed, āHe still isnāt done with his work?ā you wonder. You got off the bed and out of the room walking along the corridors thinking of taking a little peak at your lover.
You try to become as quiet as you can in hopes of him not noticing you. You notice the door to his temporary office was slightly open, enough for you to get a look. You line your eye to the tiny space between the doors seeing as a lamp illuminated the whole room, Pantalone was holding a quilt as he kept signing some papers and contracts. A soft smile appeared on your face, you were about to go back to your room until you heard him say āCome inā.
You open the door and came in with a sigh realizing youāve been caught āWhy are you still awake, my love?ā he askās looking at you. āYou werenāt on the bedā You responded walking closer to him āApologies, love. I still have a ton of paperwork left to be doneā he sat you down on his lap. āI promise to finish as soon as i canā He leans for a kiss , āCan i stay here until youāre done?ā you ask.
āWhy of courseā He smiles as you yawned laying your head on his shoulder, his other arm wrapped around your waist tracing imaginary circles on your stomach. You watch as he continues to do work, after a few minutes youāre eyes eventually gave up and started to slowly close letting the fatigue take over you.
Pantalone quietly chuckles at the sight of you sleeping on his shoulder, he set the quilt down and hooked his arm on your back and under your legs. He stood up walking to the couch in the room as he carefully sets you down trying not to wake you up. He hums pulling the blanket over you, āThe bed wouldāve been much comfier, dearā he says staring at your sleeping figure for a few secondās before going back to his table.
He sneaks in a few glances to you as he continues his work throughout the night.
