Heâs been staring at the two of you for the last 15 minutes. He has his arms crossed over his chest, his brows furrowed as he watched the two people that were standing a few feet away from him.
He can slightly hear what the two are saying by how intense and loud the argument is, he sees that you are growing more and more frustrated by the second at the lose- man in front of you. The argument soon ends with the man rolling his eyes before turning around and leaving. Straight up leaving you mid conversation.
What the fuck?
You call out to your boyfriend, your tone growing louder with each call of his name. You soon stopped as you noticed that he wasnât going to turn back, your heart felt heavy as you took a deep breath and tried to relax from the aftermath of that âsmallâ argument you just had with your boyfriend a few seconds ago.
Ace gave you a couple seconds before walking up from behind you.
âWhat was that about?â He asked.
You let out a small yelp, not knowing he was nearby the whole entire time.
âY-you saw that?â
âSaw AND heardâŠthe two of you werenât that quietâ You groaned as you leaned against one of the many pillars in the hall.
âItâs justâŠheâs been acting all weird and distant latelyâŠasked him what that was all about and he grew a bit defensive and irritated by just me askingâ
He doesnât miss the small shine from your eyes. Seems like you were trying to hold back in your tears.
Ever since you started dating this random NPC from whatever fucking dormitory heâs in, you havenât had any peace and quiet. Sure the first couple weeks it was sunshineâs and rainbows but after that, your bf started acting like a total jerk.
Ace and the others have been in the middle of your guys' couple arguments for months, from hangouts being terrorized by your loser bf to him forcing you for a month to not hang out with them, especially him.
Which obviously pissed ace off
How could he function when he wasnât able to see or hang out with you for a MONTH?
So yes, this loser boyfriend has to GO
âHeâs been a total asshole this past month, dunno about you but to me it seems like heâs hiding somethingâ
âHuh?â
âCmon prefectâŠI know youâre not THAT dumbâ You frown.
âWhat are you even talking about? You tryna say Iâm being chea-â
âI mean-â
âAce! Seriously? What the fuck is wrong with you?!â
ShitâŠokay maybe he was being a little harsh
âWait no what I mean is-â
âSave it, I had enough of men and their shitty attitudeâ and with that you left. Ace slapped his hand over his face as he groaned.
Stupid! Couldnât he have said it a bitâŠnicer?!
The next day you werenât in class. Ace frowns as he continues to look up at the door every time someone walks in. Deuce noticed his friend's strange behavior and nudged Ace once it started being too much.
âDude, are you okay?â
âYeah yeah Iâm goodâ He was still looking at the door and when the last person to walk in was professor trein, Ace let out a loud sighed as he slumped back on his seat. Of course this doesnât go unnoticed by both deuce and professor trein.
âAce sit up, the teacher is looking at youâ Deuce whispers as he forces his friend to fix his posture. Ace does it with no complaints as he allows his friend to manhandle him like a puppet. A small frown graces his lips as the poor dude looks defeated.
Deuce raises a brow at his friend's questionable behavior but decides to drop it, for now.
-
Classes were over for the day, and Ace's questionable behavior continues.
âSeriously, what is going on with you today?â The red head looks over his shoulder before turning back.
âNothingâŠâ
âYouâve been acting weird all dayâŠwhyâs that?â But Ace just ignores him as he continues his walk back to the dorm. For the whole day, he hasnât seen nor heard from you.
Was it because of what he said yesterday?
Shit, he should go up and apologize-
âYou know the prefect broke up with their boyfriend-â within seconds aces' gloomy mood disappears as he snaps his neck to look at deuce. He grabs him by the shoulders as he begins to shake him.
âWhen did this happen?! How?! Who broke up with who-â
âDude! Let go-â
âI have to go see the prefect! They must be really upset right now!âŠ.â
He thanks deuce before quickly running towards the direction of Samâs shop.
Deuce stands there baffled. Trying to process his friendâs odd behavior.
-
He reaches ramshackle in no time. He slams the door open with a loud bang as he screams out your name. He carried two bags of snacks and drinks in one hand. He closes the door before making his way upstairs.
âPrefect? I heard what happened today! See Iâm sorry for being a total jack ass yesterday but I also know that your loser boyfriend of yours never deserved you in the first place! AnywaysâŠâ
âPrefect?â
He slowly opens the door to your room, he sees you curled up underneath the covers as grim gently pets your head.
âUhhh perfect?â
âYou were right Aceâ He quirks up a brow, confused before he remembered the conversation the two of you had the day before.
No way?! Did he actually?!
Ace scoffs as he makes his way inside your room. He sets the bag of goodies down on the floor as he sits down on your bed.
âSo he was actuallyâŠdoing that?â You slowly get up and he winces at your puffy red eyes.
âI woke up to a shitty âhey girlyâ text this morning, it turns out that heâs been seeing other people behind my back and only got with me because Iâm from another worldâŠâ he wipes the tears that stream down your cheeks as you tell him about this morning.
âDonât waste your tears for that dummyâŠhe doesnât deserve you anyways..â
âHuh?â
âNothing, here I bought you stuffâ
The whole afternoon was spent with Ace trying to make you feel better, eating snacks and also listening to grims many reasons why he hated your loser EX boyfriend.
And maybe, once youâre healed and ready, Ace will confess his feelings for you.
I was very much wondering if u could do headcanons of the overblotters where their S/O (THEE magicless prefect) gets a very ugly injury during their overblot? It isn't some minor scratches or bruises, but actual like gashes that require stitches or maybe a broken bone? UEGHHHH I CAN SMELL THE HURT/COMFORT SCENARIOS FROM A MILE AWAYYY

đĄiddle đĄosehearts âčââĄâ
the fight was over, the blot had cleared and in the moment of recovery, that's when he noticed you. laying unconscious on the grass with ace and deuce circling you, grim pawing at your hair waiting for you to move.
you didn't. not even a flinch. you were just ..lying there. barely breathing. a deep, painful gash stretches across your side, staining your uniform crimson.
he whispers your name, trey holding him steady but he yanks his hand out of the third years and tries to reach you; body hurting and tears forming in his eyes. he kept crying your name once he reached you, hands shakey as he cups your face and leans closer, thumbs circling your cheeks.
he...had so much guilt in his heart. his chest was hurting and his tears never stopped. "i..i don't knowâi didn't mean to ...please...don't..." his voice kept pausing and he let out shallow breaths, biting his lip while you were taken away into care.
"...i didn't ...mean to hurt them, i didn't ...want to hurtâ"
trey his there to comfort him, but riddle won't forgive himself even if you're healed.
no amount of reassurance helps, for weeks afterward...riddle will be super gentle with you. if you have trouble walking he'll hold your arms and walk with you, almost for you. carries your books, insists you rest, cries in his pillows to not disturb you, constantly makes sure your stitches stay secure.
"does it hurt? please...tell me where...let me take care of you, darling, please..."
you end up having to cup his cheeks as he cries into your shoulder, feeling guilty and glad you're, alive...no thanks to him.
đeona đingscholar âčââĄâ
he knew people were hurt, but he didn't think one of them would be you. he didn't think it would be this bad. him? overblotting? god, he feels so stupid, reckless!
he smells your blood almost immediately, his head snaps around and he finds ruggie and jack hovering around you, jacks hand checking your...pulse?
he's trying so hard not to crumble when he reaches you, but his knees hit the dirt of the spelldrive court. your body is laying still, arm bent in an unholy way and your bleeding from your leg.
he's not the type to cry, or beg or scream. but when he leans down and rests his head against your forehead, he breathes silently and feels his heartbeat with his palm.
he does dead quiet, which is honestly more scarier than yelling. others don't touch you, he didn't let you. leona takes you to the nurse himself, and stays with you until you open your eyes again.
for days, leona doesn't cry or say much, but he's much more clingy and needy for youâpulling you into his chest for hugs, holding you close to his heart when napping and grabbing your arm gently to walk with you to classes.
đzul đshengrotto âčââĄâ
azul remains consciousness with jade staring down at him, face still and eyes unreadable. the housewarden sits up with a terrible headache but then notices you aren't around. he asked jade where you are, if you're hurt.
the eel hesitates for a moment before turning his head behind, azuls gaze following him and almost instantly his eyes widen.
there you lay, still and bleeding, shielding grim still as he stays on your arms with floyd hovering nearby. there was a large gash on your leg, probably from smacking it too hard against a rock and cutting it, there was a puddle of blood by your thigh.
azul. immediately. panics. his voice cracks as he cries your name, he doesn't waste any time trying to save you. he doesn't care about his own injuries, you're the only thing that matters at this very moment.
during the weeks of recovery, azul never lets you do anything on your own. he always preps your favorite tea, makes jade and floyd walk you from ramshackle to nrc. buys you the most expensive medicine so you can recover quickly and now have a slight fear of touching you.
you have had to reassure him multiple times it was okay and during one evening, he finally cuddled you again and cried into your shoulder.
he would never want, or even think about hurting the one he truly loves most.
đ„amil đ±iper âčââĄâ
he notices immediately, infact you are the first person he's searching for afterward. fortunately, kalim was the one to lead him to you and with his own eyes, jamil felt his heart hit the floor.
your body was laying on a wall, unconscious and bleeding, azul wrapping a bandage around your fractured shoulder. your body slammed too hard into a pillar and that's what lead you here.
he shoves people to the side to get to you, "move!" he whispers yells as he pushes past others and finally kneels to your level. at this point, azul had moved away and escorted others out to be checked for injuries.
he made sure to let jamil know you will be okay, but that didn't change the fact he still hurt you! your own soulmate. the one who wants to protect you at all costs.
the one who got too out of control.
his hand shakes as he pulls you in for a hug, gentle not to move your bandage and just hold you. he just sits there while you let out soft, almost silent breaths of air.
jamil simply stares at the floor, pupils wide and he repeats. "i almost killed them..." he is so glad you aren't dead, but the guilt never went away.
he offers to change your bandages, carry your books, fix your collar when you need it too and helps you with basic needs. he cooks meals for you over and over, never satisfied until you're healed and he forgives himself.
đ±il đźchoenheit âčââĄâ
he can smell the blood before he sees the blood, vils eyes snap towards you just in time to see you collapse in rooks arms and be gently laid on the stage floor. there's multiple scars and scratches on you, but the big on his own your back, actively bleeding out and rook covering it with a price of his fabric from his uniform.
broken stone had struck you during his overblot, falling on-top of you and almost breaking your neck, but thankfully, with some miracle, you stood back to your feet until passing out again. from the lack of blood.
vil calls your name out, barely in a whisper while the rest stare off from afar. epel not knowing what to do, he just stares with widen eyes. the pomefiore housewarden is at your side on an instant, with his vice at his back as well, he takes you in his arms and holds you.
his gloves stained red from your blood, and no matter how many times he'll wash his hands it will never be enough to remove your blood from his hands. rook, gently place his own hand on vils shoulder and comforts to him you will be okay, your alive.
when you're stable, vil refuses to leave your side. he'll be with you until you discharge and is walking freely. you have a sore back, so he'll make sure to give you the best messages and creams. when your stitches are removed, he'll carefully touch the faint scar left behind and drown in a puddle of guilt, his head resting on it while he tears up silently.
hell press a gentle kiss on your scar, "my love, you didn't deserve any of this...and for that i am sorry. let me make it up to you, please?"
âdia đźhroud âčââĄâ
everything stops, the overblot had passed but he still finds your unconscious body, passed out by the walls of the underground. one arm broken and forehead bleeding.
idia immediately starts to hyperventilate, "no..nonono!" he practically crawls towards you and checks for your pulse, keeping a hand on the back of your head as he stares down at you.
your dirty, bleeding and scared. and it's all his fault. he wouldn't leave your side, even when ortho scans you for any other injuries and what you need for help.
idia wouldn't leave your side from the infirmy, he would ask questions and hell maybe even try to take care of yourself but ortho reminds him the nurses know how to exactly help you.
he can't lose you, he can't have that blame again.
idia gets nervous when he sees you again, afraid he'll hurt you again he tries to send you food, medicine and water from afar, aka ortho. he texts, "love you, get better soon!" and almost starts to cry because it's all his fault.
he'll do anything to prevent it from happening again, he'll finally get the courage to cuddle you again and he's never letting go.
âłalleus đraconia âčââĄâ
silence. utter silence.
he sees you beneath a heavy chunk of stone, your breathing shallow and leg pinned under it. your bleeding was pooled around your body and malleus almost. lost it.
he thinks you're dead, racing to you with silver and sebek close behind but keeping their distance, lilia slowly hovering closer to the fae prince and his loved one. when you rescued, out of the rubble and on the floor unconscious.
he follows you from the stretcher the entire time until you're brought into the infirmary, the nurses having to keep him away from bursting in through the door when it's been too long.
during your recovery, he visits every morning. sometimes, neither of you speak or you're still asleep. he'll hold your hand, kiss your head and sometimes cry into your blankets.
after you're healed, lilia and the rest of diasomnia notice malleus becomes more protective. always by your side, a hand on your side when walking and speaking for you when confronted about school related questions.
hes just...making it an absolute certainty the actions after his overblot never happens again.
because once was far too many times already.
end notes: mm i got lazy for some of them, mwahmwah love y'all explodes
I love America, can we get college au jock x nerd? thank you
I fear I'm an America simp right now, I love him
Jock America With a Nerd Partner | College Au
Al was quite popular in the college
He was charming with gorgeous eyes, kind to everyone, upbeat and incredibly good on the sports fields, participating in baseball and football (not to mention, single)
You however, excelled in your own right through academics, and were popular, albeit in a smaller group than Al, through the school's debate team, tutoring program, and e-sports
Suffice to say, you two didn't fall in the same social circles, and considering you were on a college campus, you two didn't get the chance to talk to one another naturally
There was an encounter between you two in the form of an offer of tutoring however
You were called during working hours, where you were payed by the school to provide tutoring services to students who were struggling academically
Apparently Alfred, while excelling on the field, was far less gifted in class and needed to pick his grades up or he'd be benched
The professor requested that you tutor him three to five days out of the week, logging each, assisting him in english, history, and health (though, interestingly, he seemed perfectly capable in math and some sciences)
You hadn't tutored someone other than the occasional lesson and really only agreed because it looks good on a resume and was easy money, but you couldn't a good excuse to say no, and agreed
You found him to be extremely kind and energetic, and even on assignments he struggled, he kept going with a happy face, even if, during breaks, he's complain about the "difficultness" of some of the work
Because you had to spend so much time with each other, you two became closer, opting to talking about yourself here and there, mainly prompted by him
After finding out you did E-sports, he attended one of your teams unofficial practices, and watched you sweep, taking a victorious win, and was quite impressed with your skills
He learned about what you were attending college for and why and in return, you learned that he was attending for aerospace engineering and worked hard at the subjects that benefited his degree, not caring about the ones that didn't, which made his grades make sense
One day, you were two were holding a tutor session early in the morning after his workout, and he decided to go for coffee and doughnuts before you started bringing the books out
Hoping in his lightly rusted, cherry red pick-up truck, he drove you two to the nearest place
He was in a t-shirt that clung to his body and a pair of sweatpants, his hair was still damp from the quick shower he took and he was energetically talking about how his morning went, his eyes look gorgeous in the early sun and his smile was beaming
You decided he looked incredibly handsome and that maybe your couple months of friendship had the potential to form into something deeper
As both classes and game season were drawing to a close, his grades improving significantly thanks to your help, and midterms went off without a hitch
After the last football game of the season, he sprinted up to you immediately after the game and picked you up, smiling wildly and laughing
It didn't matter the score, or how he preformed, you were there, watching him and rooting along, he was having a blast
In that moment he really wanted to kiss you, but realized you two weren't even dating
Ultimately, he impulsively askes you out
When you say yes, he's overjoyed, and goes out to a fast food place to celebrate
What if, after the SDC tournament during Yuuâs second year, the team didnât disband, and instead became an idol group?
Featuring Idol!Ace, Deuce, Epel, Kalim, Jamil and Ruggie, with GN Manager/Composer!YuuâŠ
And⊠Corporate/Management Azul and the Tweels(?)
Alright everybody, buckle up.
a/n: Available on Ao3 and Quotev too.
The NRC group performed an original song directed by the Ramshackle Prefect. This yearâs SDC happened to be held at Black Swan Academy, an all-girls school.
And when it comes to satisfying the female gaze? You argued you were the best at it.
âGuys, guys, guysâhear me out.â
And then you started ripping their ears off about this amazing, wonderful, talented boy group from your world. Using your connection to the glorious Vil Schoenheit, you managed to convince him to recreate a song from your world for the SDC.
Next: choreography.
You, being the fangirl that you are, knew exactly how it should look. The problem was, you had absolutely no fucking talent when it came to dancing.
âI donât know what that jiggly worm motion is supposed to look like,â Jamil commented.
Itâs a good thing both Jamil and Kalim are patient men, because they somehow helped you recreate your absurd movements just fine.
What a talent, am I right?
They performed at the SDC.
Boom.
Booming.
People shouted, screamed, cried tearsâdefinitely only in your imaginationâat witnessing the magnificent creation you had brought to life.
For the first time in a century, NRC finally won against RSA.
Everyone looked shocked. But you, the proud parent, just puffed out your chest.
âTold you my (insert group name from your world) would never betray me.â
Everyone was happy.
Your boy group kept gaining traction weeks after the SDC ended. Fan edits, drawings, even entire fanbases somehow started sprouting out of nowhere. The boys racked up thousands of followers and started getting recognized whenever they stepped outside NRC.
Using their original recordings, you decided to upload the song to a streaming site.
And boy, oh boy, did it make money.
The song somehow landed in the Top 50 of whatever the Billboard equivalent is in Twisted Wonderland, and of course, you split the earnings evenly.
But wait.
Youâthe great you.
Were you satisfied with just this?
No.
Here comes the seduction arc.
âHey, hey~ Ace, Deuce⊠are you sure you guys donât want more money and fame?â
You started feeding them promises. Visions. Dreams. At first, they brushed you off. But what are you, if not a bundle of pure, unrelenting determination? So you kept trying.
Ruggie said yes immediatelyâbecause, hey, moneyâbut didnât take you that seriously. More like, âyeah sure, go off, do your thing.â
Ace, Deuce and Epel just⊠followed along.
Kalim said yes. Jamil, as expected, said no.
But you didnât give up.
You planned. You researched. You dragged the Pop Music Club into this. You created new music. You showed the recordings to the boys and they liked it.
So you pushed. At least record it. Even if you donât want to be idols, the money alone is worth it.
You may have manipulated them a little.
âPlease, bro. At least help me make some money. I need to eat.â
They sighed. And did exactly what you wanted.
Boom.
Another boom.
The song became a global sensation, climbing all the way to #15 on the global charts.
All they could do was stare, jaws dropped.
âI TOLD YOU. NEVER QUESTION MY VISION,â you declared proudly.
And with that proof, your persistence and your borderline menace energy, they finally agreed to form a group.
The boys did it for the money. Well, most of them.
Kalim? He just thought it sounded fun and Jamil only agreed because Kalim did. (Deep down, he probably wanted to enjoy it too. Heâs just a bit tsundere about it. Have some understanding of him, okay?)
I like to think Father Al-Asim would approve. Heâd say having fun when youâre younger is fine, and when Kalim eventually inherits the Asim household, he can stop then.
Next step: management.
While you excelled at creative direction, you needed someone to handle schedules, contracts and all the legal nonsense.
And who's better on the job than Azul Ashengrotto?
âAw, hell no,â Jamil refused immediately.
But you pulled him aside.
âJamil. Listen.â
Would you rather be stuck with a bastard you know⊠or a hollywood bastard you donât?
âWhat is a hollywood?â was his reply.
Azul was, understandably, deeply offended by your explanation.
You didnât care. You just stared him down and threatened to release every embarrassing thing of him youâve ever gotten out of Floyd and Jade.
Then you turned back to Jamil and the others.
âAt least we know Azul and the Tweels. If weâre stuck with management, better itâs someone weâd rather deal with than complete strangers.â
They⊠agreed.
Reluctantly.
And that is how your build-a-boy group was born.
Letâs go.
Jamil Viper
Main Dancer, Main Vocalist, Leader
Obviously, Jamil would end up as the leader of the group. This decision comes after a long discussion. Since the leader carries the biggest burden and responsibility, you need someone whoâs reliable, level-headed, and emotionally restrained.
Jamil, unfortunately, checks all the boxes.
He is hesitant, of course. Constantly wondering if this is really okay, if it would mean overshadowing Kalim. He canât have that. But deep down⊠the idea of finally being a leader is still tempting.
Until he realizes heâs basically a single father of five toddlers.
Jamil is the kind of leader whoâs respected by both the members and the fans. There was this one award show when they went up to give a speech, the audience just wouldnât stop screaming.
So he raised a finger to his lips. And the crowd went silent instantly.
The clip went viral, with people losing their minds over how fucking hot he looked doing it.
In funny video edits, Jamil is the savage, effortlessly funny one who rarely does anything, but the moment he finally does, no one can stop laughing.
The group has a reality show where they try a bunch of things for the first time, and in one episode, Jamil finally snaps. He lashes out at Ace, completely frustrated and overstimulated, he just⊠screams.
Heâs pissed, straight-up threatens to throw a pan at Aceâs face, and then starts cursing. Which he has never done before (At least, not on camera.) The editors censor every single swear word with chirping bird sounds. The boys canât contain their laughter. Even the crew is on the floor.
It becomes ten times funnier just because itâs Jamil finally cracking open.
Heâs lowkey hilarious without even trying.
But the boys respect him, too. The moment he switches to serious mode, they listen. No arguments.
He even once shut down a paparazzi who kept harassing him and the members. And of course, the clip went viral.
Adeuce? Scared shitless.
There was this one time they went live without a manager because they thought they were âmature enoughâ to behave (they were not). They started talking about their days back at NRC, which was fine⊠until somehow, the conversation shifted to how almost everyone had a crush on you and how it had basically become a canon event.
And then the door opened. Jamil walked in mid-conversation, said nothing, and just⊠sat between them.
The conversation died instantly.
Another viral clip from Jamil Viper.
Fans call him âHR department.â ever since.
Jamilâs voice is incredibly recognizable, sprinkled into almost all of their songs. Take his vocals out, and youâll immediately feel that somethingâs missing. He carries ad-libs and hard notes effortlessly.
Now, when it comes to his solo career⊠For some reason, I think he would pull up a Zaynđ
The group goes on hiatus to rest, and he just never releases anything.
He drops music once in a while and thatâs it.
Honestly, I like to think he uses that hiatus to properly rest. To travel. To see the world like heâs always wanted. At this point in his life, heâs no longer Kalim Al-Asimâs personal retainer.
Theyâre still close. Still friends. But Jamil isnât tied to him anymore. I want to believe that, after everything, they finally had that long-overdue conversation and reached a mutual understanding.
Anyway, back to Idol Jamil.
I donât know why, but I imagine his solo sound being something like Too Sweet by Hozier or Dusk Till Dawn by Zayn.
Jamil rarely releases music. He only has one album. But every time he drops something? Guaranteed No.1.
He does features occasionally, maybe some movie soundtracks. Very Zayn-coded behavior.
#goodluckjamilstan
Kalim Al-Asim
Lead Dancer, Sub Vocalist, Sub Rapper
Kalim is obviously the lead and main dancer. Heâs always at the center during the hardest choreography, and he absolutely devours every time. Out of all the members, he is the performer. He can sing, he can dance, and he gives 100% on stage. Always. Heâs the most expressive member, and you can tell he genuinely loves being there. His solo stages are usually the most festive and extravagant, and even after going solo, that never changes. KALIMYONCE.
In funny videos, itâs mostly him being clueless about certain things but still ending up succeeding. Like in their reality show, every challenge, he somehow wins. Kalim isnât the most competitive, he just takes it easy, but somehow always wins. Hello? Ruggie calls it reverse pulling, and Epel tries it once, only to end up at #6 and fail miserably.
And no, itâs not dumb luck. He just messes around at first, no stress, but heâs actually witty. In the middle of the challenge, he suddenly switches direction and wins. Fuck around and actually found out. (A nod to Kalimâs wit during the Tamashina Mina event where he used Leona as a marketing move.)
Kalimâs strategy? Donât stress. Calm down. Itâll work out.
Low cortisol Kalim.
People believe God has a favorite and itâs Kalim Al-Asim.
Kalim is the bias (favorite member) wrecker. He has the most insane off- and on-stage switch. For some reason, when heâs on stage, he turns into this confident, seductive, magnetic idol. Fans say that after leaving the concert, Kalim completely makes them question their bias rankings.
As a soloist, heâs wildly successful. I can see him as a performer like Michael Jackson, dancing and delivering vocals at the same time. Do you know Lay Zhangâs concert where he brings out that huge roll-out screen like parchment? Thatâs Kalim Al-Asim level of stage, alright. I know it. 100%.
And listen, someone definitely tries to claim to have his son at some point. Man ends up living his own Billie Jean moment đ
For the first time in his life, Kalim doesnât have to worry about what he eats anymore, because both you and Azul always make sure no one can lay a finger on him or the other members. Not to mention the millions of fans and the extra exposure, he now has that âcelebrity protectionâ status. Anyone trying something would have to deal with not only the Al-Asim family, but the media and an entire fandom watching. I also believe adult Kalim would become much sharper with schemes, thanks to his experience, political ties and the way he learns to use his fame.
In his thirties, when heâs less active because he has to inherit the Al-Asim household, he says being in the group was one of the best chapters of his life. He felt free. He felt loved. And heâs always glad he said yes.
And then, a few years after his hiatus, he performs at the Spelldrive Bowlâor whatever the Twisted Wonderland version of the Super Bowl isâand the world goes wild.
King of Pop, I would say.
Ruggie Bucchi
Main Rapper
If you ask Ruggie if he ever thought his life would turn out like this, the answer is no. Fuck, he never thought heâd become a pretty boy dancing on TV.
But does he regret it?
No.
Because now he can help his grandma and the kids in his neighborhood even more.
Ruggie is loved by many for his story. For his background and where he came from. He doesnât even try to make it inspirational. He just mentions things here and there, and people piece it together on their own.
For some reason, he manages to pull in both moms and their kids as fans.
There was this one interview outside a dome arena they were performing at. A mother and her son, both decked out in Ruggie merch from head to toe.
âI always tell my son to grow up like Ruggie. Always polite, kind, down to earth, and helping others.â
Wow.
What a patron role model.
The first million he made, he immediately bought a house for his grandma. Then he built a school. A clinic. A retirement home. An orphanage in the slums. He even started an education foundation to support bright, talented students.
As an idol, Ruggie has a very distinct style of rapping. You hear it once, and you know itâs him. Heâs still not the best dancer, but heâs a hard worker and willing to do anything to keep up.
On stage, heâs probably having the most fun out of everyone. Super playful and always improvising.
Heâs also the member who does the most aegyo (cute acts).
Very interactive with fans. Too interactive, honestly.
He sometimes forgets his lines because heâs too busy engaging with the crowd until Jamil has to remind him through the mic:
âRuggie, do your line. Ruggie, sing. Ruggieââ
Well.
At least thatâs how people know the group isnât lip-syncing.
When it comes to his solo work, I think of one song that fits him perfectly:
Thrift Shop by Macklemore.
Ruggie uses it to criticize overconsumption and the materialistic lifestyle of rappers and celebrities in general. He never brags about wearing million-dollar outfits even when he himself is a brand ambassador for a luxury fashion house.
The song hits No.1 on the charts and earns him recognition from fellow rappers, including those who used to look down on idol rappers.
Lastly, Ruggie goes viral constantly for having the most random side quests. One day he is live streaming in the middle of the desert. Another day he is dancing in an old tavern in Ultramarine Town. Then someone spots him ice fishing near Briar Valley. A mom once sent her daughter a selfie with him, and the picture blew up on Magicam.
âWHAT THE FUCK IS RUGGIE BUCCHI DOING AT A BINGO HALL???â
Ace Trappola
Lead Rapper, Lead Vocalist, Center
Ace Trappola is built for entertainment. Not only is he the perfect image of an idol, he is also an amazing entertainer. He is the face of the group as the most famous member. He can sing, he can rap, he can dance. He does everything, an all-rounder. He was born with a natural talent for entertaining, and whatever he wants, he gets.
He is the Ace.
He and Ruggie are the ones who write their rap lyrics for group songs. He also helps you create the groupâs music in general. His name is credited on many of their songs, and he even writes for other groups and singers, with most of them charting. He is probably the first member, aside from Kalim and maybe Jamil, to get a black card just from songwriting money alone.
He would probably be a guest judge on an idol survival show. Every show he appears on goes viral because he is naturally funny, but he enjoys filming reality shows with his members the most, where he can be the most free. His partner in crime is always Epel, and the two of them are a constant headache for their leader.
And here is the thing, Ace knows he is a big shot. His stage performances are always highly anticipated. On stage, Ace is the definition of an idol. Confident, cocky, and talented enough to back his attitude. His stage presence is massive, which is exactly why he is the center. He becomes the idol of idols (Ho, you Chappell Roan?)
I would even say he has the highest bidding photocard on eBay.
Unfortunately, at some point Ace has to take a long hiatus due to declining mental health. The announcement shocks fans. The group continues their schedule without him for a year, until he finally returns and makes a roaring comeback.
âWelcome back, asshole,â says Ruggie at their comeback concert.
When it comes to his solo career, I would say he becomes a rapper-singer, winning Grammys for his hits. And for some reason, I cannot shake the idea that mid-thirties Ace ends up in an eternal beef with someone, like Kendrick Lamar. Other rapper pisses him off once, and he just never lets it go.
Listen, Ace is usually pretty chill and minds his own business, but if someone gets on his nerves? It is over for you buddy.
Do not fuck with him.
Oh, and he headlines both Coachella and the Super Bowl.
P.S. If you do not vibe with rapper Ace, look up Don't Go Insane by DPR IAN. That Joker-like, mental struggle concept? That is Ace (Cmiiw).
Epel Felmier
Main Vocalist, Visual
Obviously, the visual. Main vocalist, and goddamn that high note. Insane vocal range. Heâs featured the most on movie and drama soundtracks and even wins Best Original Soundtrack.
He is the type of idol who refuses to be called cute. He will literally shake his head when someone calls him that. He tells people to call him cool, handsome, anything but cute. Fans tease him during concerts by calling him cute, and he playfully sulks and runs away until they coax him back by calling him cool. Then he comes back and poses for them.
Lol. What a cutie.
You and Azul never force the members to be something they are not. You never assign personas because you believe authenticity is what makes the group special and more likable. So if Epel wants to be cool, then he will be cool.
Too bad our cute mouse visual sometimes gives it away (ááŁá)Ő
He is the most chaotic member. There is always something happening with him every five minutes on their reality show. He grew up being playful with his cousins back home, so when it comes to games, he is very agile.
And he also famously cheats àŽŠà”àŽŠàŽż àŒàș¶âżàŒàș¶ )
If you know Jeonghan from SEVENTEEN, then yes, that is basically him.
Ace calls him out multiple times, and Epel just goes, fuck you bro, you do the same.
Acepel anyone?
He is very competitive and always makes sure he does his best and beyond when it comes to games. Which is why his mortal enemy is always Kalim because what the fuck, why is this guy effortlessly winning?
He panics and gets stressed during games and needs to be reminded to take it easy from time to time.
Ruggie: âCalm down bro, itâs just a game.â
He also always goes viral when he lashes out in his accent at the members.
âYA WANT TO BE DEAD??â
When Epel goes solo, I think he would go full pop. But what people do not expect is how dirty his songs are. Like, what? Seven by Jungkook? SexyBack by Justin Timberlake?
Oh my gosh, Epel (â„ïčâ„)
But of course, his fans will always defend him, as they should, because Epel is a grown adult and can do whatever he wants.
He is also known for having a close relationship with Oscar-winning actor, Vil Schoenheit, and eventually steps into acting himself. He does not take many roles, but his acting is recognized and respected by his peers.
Deuce Spade
Main Rapper
Now hear me out. Deuce has HUGE fanboys. Our youngest somehow has the deepest rapping voice, and his on-stage persona is just so cool. You know that cool dude idol type? Yeah. adghjkashjdsadkl God help me, he is so fucking hot.
He is quieter than the other members, but that does not mean he cannot be chaotic. He is a good boy and never does anything bad, but unfortunately always gets dragged into Ace or Epelâs mischief. And because he is a good boy, when something happens, he can just blame it on them and the older members will believe him.
âI DID NOTHING!â Epel screams while getting stared down by Ruggie for breaking the toilet handle that one time.
My baby bunny is effortlessly cute. His nap clip went viral when Kalim showed fans how Deuce usually naps during recordings. Curled up into a ball on the sofa, surrounded by plushies and soft blankets. Aww (àž Ì Ëàž Ì)âĄ
Even as an idol, Deuce always prioritizes his education. I would say he continues his further studies alongside his schedule. Another member with a strong mom fanbase for this exact reasons.
He attends lectures offline once in a while, and there are plenty of clips of him studying in class. When he has group projects, he often buys his classmates treats and meals.
On stage, though? WhoOoOOoOo. Who is that sexy white chocolate in da back?
He has so many fanboys that every time before he speaks, they bark for him. Deuce is obviously shy about it, but they just get louder. Sometimes the members bark with them too. Usually Ruggie.
Even though he is nice and effortlessly cute, his old delinquent side still shows sometimes. When his expression shifts, people know to be careful. This man will throw hands if needed. Most of the time he does not have to, though, because people back off the moment he looks pissed. Itâs very visible.
Because of his deep voice, stage presence, personality, and solo style, he has a huge fanboy following. I imagine his songs becoming massive hits among fanboys and even breaking into mainstream media, something like FE!N by Travis Scott.
âI hope they play FE!N,â is Deuce trend.
(P.S. you can also go the Bad Bunny route if you prefer that vibe.)
He is also into blastcycles and cars, which just adds to his âmanly charm.â
However, let it be known, Deuce is also known for his gentlemanly character. He respects women, always thanks his mom for his achievements, and is gentle with kids. All the members are feminists, but Deuce is especially vocal about it.
So when some bigots try to claim Deuce for their âalpha male Andrew Tateâ agenda, they immediately get jumped by his fanboys.
âYou are not a real Deuce fan if you do not understand his personality!â
âGet him out of your toxic masculinity agenda!â
Wow.
(Reference to that one Ruggie fanart being used by Andrew Tate. I lose a year of my life every time I remember it T_T)
And yet, no matter how hardcore you are as a Deuce fan, you will never beat his number one supporter, Epel.
(A nod to canon Epel fanboying over Deuceâs younger persona.)
âWhen you are in loving Deuce competition and your opponent is Epel Felmier đâ
#goodluckdeucestan
Manager! Yuu
The group goes for a hip hop and pop style, I assume. You are not just their manager, you are their creative director. You take everything you loved from idol groups back in your world and mesh it together for the boys. Like I said, it is basically your build-your-idol setup.
Not only does the group have catchy songs, they also have insane choreography. People often accuse them of lip syncing, but it gets debunked easily by Jamil and Epelâs adlibs, Ruggie forgetting his lines, and Deuce forgetting lyrics.
Not as bad as Ace straight up rapping gibberish when he forgets the lyrics he wrote himself though.
âWhat is this? Ver.2?â a fan asks.
The reason your group does so well is because of how interactive they are with fans and how well they take care of what fans want.
You are the very first person to introduce photocards in albums. The albums also include photobooks, posters, and even standing acrylics sometimes. They do livestreams, fan sign events, video call events, and they are allowed to roam the internet and interact with fans, with moderation of course.
You indulge the fans with merch and fun content like variety shows. And when photocards start reselling for absurd prices, you and the members actively discourage it. It is unhealthy, after all.
On top of indulging fans, you also take extra care of what they actually need.
When hundreds of brand deals start coming in, the first conversation you have with Azul is about controlling their exposure.
One thing many entertainment companies miss is how they push idols to their limits with brand deals just to maximize profit. But you and Azul know better.
That leads to oversaturation.
And when there is oversaturation, consumer fatigue follows.
As fans, people naturally want to buy whatever their idols endorse. But imagine if your idols are everywhere. Food, clothes, products, even insurance. No one can keep up with all of that. People get tired.
And so do your boys.
This moderation allows them to rest properly and have breathing room between schedules.
So you and Azul carefully choose only a few deals that truly benefit both the company and the members. Background checks are mandatory. No bad publicity, no shady affiliations. Absolutely not.
You refuse to let anything become a liability to your boys.
In hindsight, you take good care of your idols to the point that you become the bare minimum standard for idol management. No overworking, fair distribution, balanced exposure, and respect for their personal lives.
You used to manage them directly, but as they grew bigger, you could no longer follow them everywhere. They each get personal managers. For important or risky events, Azul sends Jade or Floyd to accompany them.
You and Azul co-found Mostro Entertainment. And when your boys grow older and start building lives outside the group, it is time to raise a new generation.
You open global auditions.
Hundreds of thousands of people send in their tapes.
Good luck!
Group Trivias
Oh they are very chaotic.
Older gang - Jamil, Kalim, Ruggie
Younger gang gang - Ace, Epel, Deuce
Now fight!
Jk. but you get the idea.
When it comes to games, the most wins go to Kalim and Ace.
Epel and Ruggie are okay.
Jamil and Deuce though? Oh my god.
Itâs not like Jamil is bad, you know. He often finishes challenges the fastest. Itâs just that something always happens to him for some reason. He could be one step away from winning and something just⊠fucks it up. And itâs completely out of his control. If dumb luck exists, then Jamil has dumb unluck or whatever itâs called.
But hey, Jamil mostly doesnât really care. Itâs just a game anyway. (Heâs seething inside.)
Deuce is the opposite. He tries his best but still canât win, simply because heâs a good boy and everyone else is cheating àŽŠà”àŽŠàŽż àŒàș¶âżàŒàș¶ )
He tries to cheat sometimes, but these cheaters are always one step ahead of him, soâŠ
Nobody wants to be on the same team as him because they somehow always lose. Even Kalim, who never loses, ends up losing when heâs with Deuce .·°Ő(ăŁ-ᯠ-Ï)Ő°·.
Deuce canât do anything except sprawl on the ground in defeat.
BUT. It does not apply when heâs on reality shows with other celebrities.
He wins.
So the problem is not him. Itâs his wicked ass members.
#justicefordeuce
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Every older member has their favorite younger one. Jamil secretly has a soft spot for the mischievous rebel fox, Ace, even though he gives him so much trouble. Kalim is with Epel, and Ruggie with Deuce.
They are also split into introverts and extroverts.
Extroverts: Ruggie, Epel, Kalim
Introverts: Jamil, Deuce, Ace
Yes, people think Ace is an extrovert, but his off-camera persona is very different from his on-camera one.
The group also sings the soundtrack for a boy group animation, something like the Saja Boys. I can totally see them doing soda commercials too. Soda Pop. Fuck đ
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
There is a long-running conspiracy that Jamil actually controls the groupâs mic levels. Fans swear that whenever things get too chaotic, Jamilâs mic gets louder.
No one can prove it.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
They have a secret group chat without you. Not because they are hiding anything serious, but because âSometimes we need to complain about you too.â
You found out.
You pretended not to.
Azul definitely knows.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
They once tried to do a âwho knows you bestâ quiz. It ended in chaos because:
Everyone thought they knew you best
Half the answers were wrong
Ace and Ruggie started arguing about technicalities
Kalim was just happy to be there
Deuce got nervous
Jamil refused to participate halfway
You never approved that episode.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
They have a habit of exposing each otherâs pre-debut stories. Especially Ace and Ruggie. Anytime one of them starts talking, another member will immediately go:
âDo you want me to tell that story?â
Instant silence.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Jamil has threatened to leave group chats multiple times. He never actually does. But the threat alone is enough to make everyone behave for about⊠five minutes.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Kalim is the only one who can casually invite people over without warning. One time he just went âOh yeah, I invited some friends!â
âWho?â
Names that make everyone freeze.
Jamil has to do damage control immediately.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Epel has broken at least one prop per variety show. Not on purpose. Just⊠energy.
Staff now prepare backups.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Deuce is the only one staff trust with instructions.
If something needs to be done properly, they tell Deuce.
If something needs to be entertaining, they tell anyone else.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Ruggie has a reputation for negotiating everything.
Even snacks.
Staff: âThis is for everyone.â
Ruggie: âBut what if I take two?â
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
Ace has been caught reading his own fan comments.
He denies it every time.
There is video proof.
âââââ ââ ââ â âââââ
They have a tradition where after every major concert, they sit together and eat. No cameras, no staff, just them.
Itâs the only time they are completely quiet.
a/n: Thatâs as far as my brainrotting idol headcanons go, yâall. Who do you think would be your favorite? Iâd personally be a Deuce stan, but Ace is so close to being my bias wrecker. Ruggie comes next.
Do you have any other trivia these stupid idols would get into?
LOL. Let me know, please. Come brainrot with me.
See ya!
Okay Jamil Devil has returned and could I request fem reader x Jamil and Ace? Based off the songs Backburner and Did you like her in the morning? both by NIKI
Where reader was a backburner, second option/backup in case things failed now upgraded to girlfriend but the characters still loves their former partner. Reader isnât dumb enough to not see through it no matter how much they conceal it, and they feel insanely guilty that their current partner is comparing herself to their ex and is becoming much more insecure and distant just because of their complicated feelings, until she ended things via messages on a random day, never talking to them again.
Very angsty, yes I know, but I love me being a wee sad.

Ace Trappola doesn't have the best track record when it comes to relationships.
You knew this for a fact when you fell for him, but the heart wants what it wants. For a long time, you agonized over these feelings. I mean, Ace was your friend â just your friend â and you didn't want to complicate that. Plus, it would have been pretty shitty of you to try and make a move on him while he was already dating someone else.
You smiled and laughed and pretended it didn't take every bit of your willpower not to sob at the sight of Ace with her. Even though it tore you apart, you supported him with the quiet hope that one day he'd see that you were there for him through thick and thin. It was a naive hope, one that was pitiful at best and downright delusional at worst, but not totally out of the realm of possibility.
You see, even though Ace was in a relationship with someone else, that didn't stop him from stringing you on. He'd come to you lamenting his frustrations with his girlfriend â how she was too needy, too clingy, or whatever else he saw fit to complain about. It would be in the middle of these misguided conversations that Ace would drop these little comments that made you believe that maybe loving him wasn't so hopeless.
"If only she was more like you, maybe then I wouldn't have anything to complain about."
"Heck, I would just date you, but that'd be awkward since we're friends."
"You'd definitely be a good girlfriend to someone, though. Whoever gets to call you theirs better count their lucky stars."
Friends.
Just friends, right?
Well, you were for a time, but that changed when Ace's girlfriend got tired of his shit and left him. Of course, you stepped in to comfort him, offering soft reassurances and a shoulder to cry on whenever he needed. Eventually, simply friendly comforts became something more.
Lines between friendship and something more blurred until you found your relationship with Ace changed. Although you hadn't set out with the intention of seizing the empty spot in his heart left by his previous girlfriend, you'd be lying if you said you weren't happy with the outcome. Finally, after all this pining and hoping and waiting, you could call Ace yours.
Well, he was yours in theory, and sometimes in practice, but with time, you came to realize that his heart still belonged to his ex.
You tried to turn a blind eye to the obvious, but soon the terrible truth became impossible for you to ignore. You couldn't help but wonder what she had that you lacked? Ace made it seem that you were so much better than she was, so why was he still so hung up on her when you were right there ready to give him your all?
Comparison is the thief of joy, and slowly but surely, the happiness you once felt in your relationship was stolen away. You grew distant, stopped spending time with Ace, and eventually took to just outright ignoring him. You'd never be her, so what was the point of even trying?
If Ace wanted her so badly, then he could have her.
I think we should break up.
Is that why youve been ghosting me??
Yeah.
Can we talk about this like face to face???
No. There's nothing to talk about, and I don't want to see you now or ever, for that matter.
Fine if that's how you want to be then consider yourself single
You didn't hear from Ace after that. You weren't cruel enough to block him, and maybe a part of you hoped he would change his mind and come crawling back to beg your forgiveness, but he never did.
Instead, it looks like he went back to his ex. Based on the pictures they post together on Magicam, they seem happy. You hope they're happy.
You always wanted to be Jamil Viper's girlfriend, but now that you are, you regret ever falling for him.
Loving Jamil is no easy feat â you know from first-hand experience. Looking back on things now, a part of you wishes you had remained in that dreaded friend-zone. In the beginning, you were happy to take that step, to be something more than a convenient 'friend' Jamil could always turn to when things with his ex got rocky.
You didn't see it then, but hindsight is always 20/20. Back then, you thought that maybe, just maybe Jamil would take you off the backburner and make you his, and after patiently waiting for so long, he eventually did just that. Unfortunately, all that glitters is not gold â a disastrous fact that you came to understand far too late.
The funny thing is, you thought Jamil truly loved you. He was soft to you where he was sharp with others, gentle in contrast to his typical roughness, warm in a way that belied his usual coldness. It wasn't much â in fact, it was probably the bare minimum â but it was enough to keep you complacent, to keep you crisping up on Jamil's backburner until he was finally ready to move you forward.
"You're the only one around here that I can tolerate. If it's not Kalim bothering me, it's my girlfriend. You're the only one that doesn't annoy me to no end."
"I swear, all she does is cling to me all day. Thankfully, you know how to give me my space."
"If I was smart I'd just date you instead. Oh well, you live and you learn. If I ever break up with my girlfriend, I'll give you a call⊠just kidding."
You like to think Jamil didn't mean to string you along, that he was just waiting for his last relationship to come to its natural conclusion before starting one with you. You told yourself that, deep down, he truly did care for you, but the truth is, he always cared for her more. In truth, Jamil still cares for her.
It's heartbreaking to come to the realization in real time that Jamil still loved his ex. The guilt alone threatens to eat you alive. You don't want to doubt him, or the love he claims to have for you, but it's impossible for you not to. Of course, you ended up spiraling â rightfully so.
The guilt, the shame, the anger and all the other feelings you found yourself drowning in eventually became too much. You let it swallow you whole, because what else were you supposed to do? You tried making Jamil love you even a fraction as much as he still loves her, you tried to change yourself to conform to her likeness, you tried, and you tried, and you tried to no avail.
So, you simply stopped trying.
You pulled away. You isolated. You stopped talking to Jamil entirely and even did your best to stop thinking of him altogether. It didn't work, nor entirely. You had your slip ups where the crushing weight of loneliness drove you back into his arms. With time, though, you managed to break free of this hold Jamil had over you.
Let's breakup.
I'm sorry, what?
Did you read the message? I said; let's break up.
Are you serious?
Yes.
Call me.
No. I don't want to hear your voice right now.
If this is some prank Kalim put you up to, it isn't funny.
It's not a prank. I'm serious.
Can we talk?
No. I'm done. There's no amount of talking that will save this relationship.
Fine. Don't talk to me ever again, if that's what you want.
You never did talk to Jamil after that exchange. There were a few moments in the following weeks when you were lonely late at night regretting your decision to cut him out, but you didn't give in. It's for the best that things ended when they did â both for you and for Jamil.

General Poly Relationship Headcanons - Ace Trappola/Deuce Spade
Word count: 1.5k
âą The braincell trioâąïž has been upgraded from friendship to romance and it's a little worrying to others because the madness that seems to follow you guys around was bad enough before, and now you're spending even more time together? It seems like a recipe for disaster but it's so worth it (to you)
âą No one is surprised truly, the three of you are always in your own little bubble, just messing around without a care in the world đ„ș
âą On that topic though, you cannot switch your brain off while you're with them out and about, it'll 100% end in chaos. Either Deuce will get you lost or you'll zone back in and find Ace doing god knows what, and you're always inevitably dragged into whatever messes they cause.
âą It's a very comfortable relationship tbh, they've already seen you at your worst and when you're not all put together, so it's not hard to get closer from there. The same goes for you, especially after a few sleepovers at Ramshackle where you got to see them mellow a bit and have the occasional (somewhat) serious conversation.
âą Ace and Deuce's bickering does get worse, like yes Ace loves you both but.... he can't help it! Deuce's reactions are just too funny (and you have to agree, much to his dismay)
âą They're so boyfriends tbh. They're just guys. Very chaotic yes but so great nonetheless. They're the coziest of guys and an adeuce sandwich when they're actually calm and chilling for once is like heaven on earth đ„ș
âą I do think they're both blanket hogs, but Ace is more evil with it while Deuce is just knocked tf out. When Deuce takes it you go cuddle with Ace for warmth and Deuce gets pouty about it in the morning while Ace is all smug. However, Ace would also totally hog it for you two and poor Deuce is left abandoned. Whenever he does that you grab it from him and cover yourself and Deuce in retaliation and he's left feeling betrayed đ your dorm needs more or bigger blankets for this sleeping arrangement to work..
âą Grim is not surprised by this relationship, but he's still disappointed. Surely you can do better than these fools!! He acts like he doesn't go along with all their schemes and nonsense and make things even worse đ
âą Deuce gives you his sweater once because of the cold, and suddenly it's a competition between the two of them with giving you their clothes or reacting to things quicker when it concerns you. They will shove each other to hold the door open for you first and it's like a gentlemanly competition except neither of them are very good at being proper gentlemen đ It's barely even about you anymore, they just want to be faster for bragging rights and so you'll thank them lol. Now you're just swimming in a pile of all their sweaters, so it's technically a win for you, although you do have to deal with the consequences when one of them ends up shoving the other too hard (often Deuce, though he does feel bad about it..sort of)
âą They're like the devil and angel on your shoulders except the angel likes to switch it up and keep you guessing đ they're bad influences despite Deuce's best efforts, you're either going to have to deal with it or really lock in on fixing them up, and even then, the chances of Ace getting you both to skip on occasion are quite high..
âą Study dates at cafes in town!! The people there will definitely give you looks for how loud you're all being and you almost always have to be the one to remind them that you're in public although you tend to forget too, spending time with them is always lively and at least a little chaotic. The productivity is very low but !! Quality time âșïž
âą During these dates, Ace teases Deuce a bit about his studying and you do your best to reassure him that he'll get there eventually so he doesn't get discouraged. Ace also calls you a tryhard for being so strict about focusing on your work, but will more often than not end up asking you for your notes later on..he's so shameless
âą The professors will lecture you about letting them drag you down unfortunately.. you've grown on them and they don't want you to waste your potential because you're having fun. Although they like you, they won't play favourites and you'll all get punished equally for slacking and given extra work when you decide to skip class together.
âą Movie nights!!! They both get in trouble afterwards for sneaking out to see you but it's worth it to them đ„ș you guys get all cozy and cuddle up, with Grim in your lap too for extra coziness. Ace likes horror, he likes to see you guys get scared lmao though he also likes to comfort you two afterwards. Even if his tone may be teasing, he loves it. Deuce likes action and fantasy stuff, and you all rotate between who gets to pick for the night. It's all just so sweet, there is no shortage of body heat and it makes up for the worrying lack of warmth in Ramschackle
âą You go to both their club events and practices and act as their cheerleader.. always bringing the other with you đ„č you do push them a bit when it comes to cheering for each other because they act all embarrassed about it but they get fired up super quick and become louder than you đ
âą Despite all the silliness they are really good at supporting you emotionally if you're ever feeling down. Their pep talks might not always be the best, as in Ace's case he can come across as too blunt and there might be a bit of anxious rambling on Deuce's end, but they try their best. When they're quiet and just comforting you with their presence and physical affection, it does a lot to help your nerves. Afterwards, you're far more calm and collected, and it's much easier to open up about whatever's bothering you.
âą Of course, you provide emotional support for them as well! Whenever Deuce is feeling insecure about his academic shortcomings, you comfort him by reminding him of the progress he's made since he made the decision to improve himself as a person. Ace also has his rare moments of vulnerability, where he might question his importance and magical abilities. In these cases, he seems to respond better to direct words or even challenges, rather than gentle encouragement.
âą Regardless of who it is that needs comforting, you always end up in a cuddle pile. The weight and shared warmth is too nice to refuse, even when one of you has obligations to get to.
âą Cannot emphasize enough how lovely hugs are when they're just chilling. The coziest place in the world is with them just cuddling especially if they have hoodies on and it's a little cold so you're at the perfect warmth and you never wanna leave... it's a trap but so comfy đ but also I feel like Deuce really likes skin to skin so he likes to cuddle while wearing tank tops so he's spooning you from the back while you cuddle Ace from the front while he has his hoodie on. I think Deuce would run pretty warm so he doesn't really need much, it keeps you warmer more easily and it's just really nice being between them
âą In terms of affection and PDA, they're quite different. While Deuce prefers to limit public displays because it's not befitting of an honours student, Ace is often trying to catch you two off guard to see your flustered reactions. Though if one of you initiates instead, he'll act like he's above it lol
âą At one point, you try to find matching charms and similar items for all of you, but it's hard to find good matching stuff for 3 people. Because of this, you take it upon yourself to just make them from scratch. You all end up with cute little personalized bag charms, likely made out of different fabrics and materials you managed to find. Ace and Deuce really cherish them because of how personal it is, and especially because you made them yourself.
âą They totally let you do their makeup in the mornings, even if it's not the best! They'd also definitely draw their card symbols on you too if you ask!! You definitely wear both at the same time at least once. There's a lot going on, but it's okay because it's a statement of your love~
âą Overall, this is truly The relationship ever. Don't ever expect a full week of peace with these guys but the chaos is wonderful and they're so loving in their own unique ways.

read jamilâs version here!
Ever since realizing your crush on Jade, you thought that if you let it be, your feelings would come to pass.Â
After a year at Night Raven College, your heart had other plans..and so you found yourself utterly smitten with the eel. It had come to a point where you would daydream about him carrying you on hikes or feeding you a shroom or two (your friends noticed the dopey look youâd have on during class and had blackmail of you smiling at Professor Treinâs cat for no reason).Â
Needless to say, it was a must for you to have an outlet for your feelings. You canât live with this one-sided crush forever. Still, between rejection and eternal yearning, the latter definitely sounded easier to deal withâŠ
However, there was one problem.
âLilâ Shrimpy, come over here, will ya?â
You couldnât bring yourself to confess to Jade right away, so what better way to expose yourself to doing it than to ask his twin for help? You debated asking Azul, but figured he would probably rope you into a shady contract, considering that the other party involved was his lovely subordinateâŠyou could only choose the lesser evil.Â
And right now, that lesser evil was hugging the living daylights outta you.Â
âOuchâFloyd, please, I canât breathe!â You cry out, stabilizing your breath as he lets you go. You second-guess your decision to ask him for help, but it feels like you have no choiceâŠheâs the closest option youâve got to the real thing, after all.
âSoo~ Watcha need olâ Floyd for, huh? Get yourself into some trouble? Sounds fun!â the eel walks closer to you, towering you with his height. Youâd like to think he has good intentions for agreeing to speak with you, but you canât help but feel like somethingâs offâŠ
Letting out a deep breath, you twiddle your fingers as you speak, âWellâŠitâs about your brotherâŠâ Floyd narrows his eyes and breaks out into a big grin, letting you continue, âItâs just thatâŠâ
Trailing off, you find yourself unable to finish your sentence, âThat what, Lilâ Shrimpy? Câmon, Iâm getting booooredâŠâ he slumps his shoulders but his attention is still focused on you.
Thereâs no going back now, you guess. Going for it, you deeply inhale before saying, âSoIamkindofinlovewithyourbrotherand#needthatbutIâmtooscaredtoactuallytellhimsowillyouhelpmeconfess.âÂ
Floydâs face lights up in understanding. Youâre not even surprised he caught all that, because now youâre more concerned at the fact that heâs giving you a lopsided grin as if he discovered something he could hold against youâŠWellâŠ
âLilâ Shrimpy! Why didnât ya just say so? Iâm the perfect eel for the job! Aside from being a Prefect, youâre tryna be my Shrimpy-in-Law now, arenât ya?â He violently grabs you to envelop your body in another squeeze, unbeknownst to a certain mer observing you from a distanceâŠ
Floyd and the Prefect seem to be getting along swimmingly, it seems. Jade puts his hands to his chin and chuckles, What was it the Prefect needed from my brother, I wonder?Â
What was it indeedâŠ
Jade notices a change in your behavior in the following days, and heâs not sure if heâs into that. Suddenly, you spend every bit of your free time with Floyd. And ever so out of place, Floydâs acting extra gentle with you, too! Gently holding your shoulder to keep you from bumping into a tree, serving you food he cooked himself, carrying you around like a potato sack (but nicely?)
Little does Jade know that Floyd did that because you were so preoccupied thinking about your crush that you almost kissed tree bark, the twin eel was telling you all about Jadeâs favorite food, and you asked Floyd to urgently whisk you away from Jade because you thought he could hear you gushing about him.Â
What gets him going is that whenever heâs in the vicinity, you and Floyd always seem to be on your way out as if he had invaded your âno-no square.â Itâs safe to say that your eel canât help but feel a little disheartened. Of course, he still acts as his normal suspicious self, grinning away his concerns. What else is he to do? Finders keepers were the rules in the Coral Seaâand it seemed Floyd got to you before he could.Â
â
You, on the other hand, have finally prepared to confess to your beloved eel. You had a customized terrarium at hand, and a handful of mushrooms you found growing at Ramshackle that you think Jade might appreciate. All that was left was to tell him your feelings. Before doing that, however, you decide to go on one last test run with Floyd.Â
You sit across Floyd at a secluded booth at Mostro Lounge, your gifts lying below the table. From where Jade stands, he notices that youâve dolled yourself up tonightâyour eyes seem like theyâre glowing brighter, you smile a little wider, and your cheeks much pinker. It takes all his restraint to not steal you from Floyd right then and there.Â
Instead, because Floydâs also slacking off, he takes your order to your table.Â
But that was his mistake.Â
â...To be honest, youâve been on my mind ever since my first day at NRC,â You look up at Floyd, shyly looking away from him. âI love it whenever you come up to me and talk about the things you love, I think itâs adorable.â Giving him a little laugh, Jade wishes so hard to the Sevens that it was directed to him instead.Â
You feel immense bloodlust come up behind youâŠbut it somehow feels directed towards the damned eel sitting across the table.Â
âIâll just come out and say it. I really, really like youââÂ
Seeing his towering shadow approach your booth, your words falter when your eyes meet Jadeâs mismatched ones.Â
You are utterly, completely, and wholly screwed.Â
Not wanting to deal with this mess, Floyd slithers out of his seat, sensing his brotherâs immense energy directed at himâJadeâs so scary when it comes to Lilâ Shrimpy, ugh.Â
Jade takes the seat across yours. With his practiced smile and ever-so polite tone, he manages to stay civil, âPrefect, fancy seeing you here.â Placing his long finger on his chin, he furrows his eyebrows and gives you a cute little pout, âI do hope Iâm not interrupting anything.âÂ
He patiently waits for you to respond. Or rather, he watches as your soul comes back to your body after you realize you canât die without confessing to the eel before you first.Â
Regaining life in your body, you open your mouth to speak, but no words come out. After a few tries of gaping and closing your lips, you finally manage to sputter out a response, âJ-JadeâŠHi.â
Jade gives you a little smile back and leans in a bit closer, placing his arm on the table to lean on his cheek, âHello, Prefect.â After a few moments of silence, he realizes that the Prefect Was Too Stunned to Speak. So he goes ahead, âIf you donât mind, thereâs something Iâd like to discuss with you.âÂ
âOver the past few weeks, Iâve noticed howâŠdistant you were towards me. I couldnât help but notice the proximity you and my brother have maintained, however. If I may be so bold as to ask, "PrefectâŠâ You just barely bounce your head up and down, giving him confirmation as he continues, âAre you and Floyd in a relationship?âÂ
Your soul threatens to leave your body yet again, but you manage to keep it intact just enough to let out a very alarming, âWHAT???!!!âÂ
So many questions were flooding through your mind as to why he would ever conjure that thought, but the eel before you now seems amusedâa vast shift from his earlier violent mood. Lives were saved that momentâŠÂ
âHm? Judging from your reaction, he is yet to accept your affections? Fufu, I apologize, he can sometimes be a bitâŠmoody.âÂ
âHuhâŠI donât get what youâre saying at all, Jade! Why would I ever confess toââÂ
Ah, a light bulb blinks above your head.Â
You canât help but giggle at his conjecture, âWait, Jade, you canât be serious!â If you could only project a rolling laughing emoticon in real life, itâd surround you like an aura. However, right now, Jadeâs amusement turns into mild confusion, squinting his eyes and giving you a half smile.
âWhatâs so amusing, Prefect? Is it so ridiculous to think that you have been courting my brother, considering the amount of time you were spending with one anotherâalone, I might add.â Pulling out a napkin from his breast pocket, he makes a show of wiping fake tears from his eyes, âI admit that it was quite painful to witness, you see, seeing as how desperately I found myself wanting to be in his position instead.âÂ
You look around the cafe to see if there were any hidden camerasâwere the twins playing an elaborate prank on you and profiting over the footage?! Still, you canât help but feel a little twinge in your heart as Jadeâs eyes seem downcast despite his jests. Even if itâs a little twistedâŠyou found his act oh so adorable. You could just confess to him right then and there.Â
WaitâŠwasnât that the plan all along?Â
âJade, I have to be honest with youâŠI really worked hard for this day.â Pulling out your gifts from underneath the table, you extend a hand to softly place them in his gloved hands, âIâve been spending all that time with Floyd because I asked him to help meâŠâÂ
The eel looks at you intently with a focus that makes you feel flushed. You give it your all to continue, âAgh, I worked so hard on my speech but I canât think of anything to say!âÂ
Whatever, you just go for it, âI love you, Jade!âÂ
For a moment, Jade forgets to control his expression. His mouth forms an âoâ shape, and his eyes go a little wide. Then, his face breaks out into a grinâat least he seems happy?
âFufu, is that so, Prefect?â He gives you a sly grin as if he knew all along.
âUnfortunately so. If you could let me down now, please.â
âLet you down? In what world? Prefect, I must admitâIâve been dreaming of this day for a while.âÂ
âAre you sure? Like, you and me?â
âYes, I am quite sure that there is only one Ramshackle perfect in all of NRC, my dear.â
You find yourself lightheaded at the nickname, but before your head could hit the table, Jade softly cushions it with his palm.Â
âOh, we canât have that,â with a touch of his magic, you wake back up. However, finding yourself lying on Jadeâs palm, you let out a small yelp and lose consciousness once again.Â
Leaning down to your level, Jade sets his arm across the table and lies his head down beside yours, âFufu, thereâs always tomorrow, Prefect. But I hope you dream of me~â
Extra:Â
In your shock, you faint again realizing that Jade returns your feelings.Â
However, you woke up 10 minutes after you blacked outâŠand you canât think of a way to get out of this situation.Â
In your current position, Jade seems to be lying his head next to yours, softly sifting his cold fingers through your hairâit seems that he removed his gloves in favor of feeling closer to you.
You feel his eyes burning holes to the back of your head, but you canât get yourself to move.Â
Not when heâs being so sweet to you right now.Â
âAh, Prefect, do you find it so difficult to accept my feelings for you, dear?â He quietly laughs to himself, âFufu, âdearâ, huh? I hope you accept my choice of endearment for you~.â
âAdditionally, I know youâre awake. Wonât you get up and properly convey your feelings to me, Prefect?â
a/n: i wanted to rewrite ts but yk what We ball. try again next round I have more Jade stirring in the pot + the similar promotes for a bunch of characters is mainly because they were supposed to be in one post but i felt like standalone was better LOL
Your headphones fit snug on your head while the clack of the keyboard filled the room. To anyone else it seemed calm enough, but to you, all you could hear was the snooty trashtalk filling your ears.
Gloomurai
You really had to stop playing 1v1s against him, it's not like he always won, but every time that he did-- god he was insufferable.
It was kinda cute.
Maybe that was how you fell in love with him. All the late nights gaming were like a little slice of home in this upside down world.
His voice lulled you to sleep most nights, the more days that passed, the more he talked.
That was exactly how you'd figured out who he was, you would've recognized Idia's voice halfway into the grave.
And that was exactly how you knew he didn't like you.
He would tell you about his crush sometimes, how even looking at them made him heat up, or about how they were one of the most amazing people ever.
You would always hype him up, tell him to just talk to them-- the spirit of a true friend indeed. It was like being a side character in a love otome, one who wasn't even a romancable option.
For now, there was nothing you could do but stay like this. Not daring to burden him with your feelings, to risk the chance of losing him in whatever form you had him.
"There's no way they're not dating someone." Ace muttered to Deuce, voice low as he watched you grin, totally absorbed in your phone.
"Think about it," Ace continued, "they're always smiling on their phone, and getting a bunch of notifications. There has to be someone!"
But Ace has no subtlety, and certainly no awareness of his surroundings when he gets excited. So it was really no surprise when the rumor that you were taken spread like wildfire.
Yet somehow, you made it through the day with no idea. Maybe because you were waiting for merch drop, or maybe because you were so engrossed in the special event that had just started. Regardless, you were oblivious to the whispers, to the stares. All you wanted was to go home, and relax into the comfort of your sheet, the comfort of Idia's voice.
You barely made it five steps into your room when your phone lit up.
Idia never called this early, it was always in the late hours of the night, when insomnia dulled his anxiety did he ever call you directly, forgoing the in game voice chat entirely.
Not that you were at all sad he was calling, any excuse to spend time with him was good enough.
"Hello?"
"It's so SO over, oh my sevens, Ortho just told me howcouldIhavmisseditYuuhasaboyfriendit'soover"Idia rushed and tumbled over his words until they were unintelligible.
"I- uh- Idia, you gotta calm down," you replied, confusion filling your voice, "do me a favor, take a breath and repeat that like ten times slower".
"Yuu has a boyfriend and I had no idea. I've been pining over them the whole time like some normie idiot!" Idia despaired.
"I don't have a boyfriend, who gave you that idea?" Your mouth moved faster than your brain, speaking before you could catch up.
"Y- You're Yuu??" The silence permeated from the other end of the phone for a little bit, if it wasn't for his rapidly increasing breaths, you might have though he died. "That's like a thousand aura points lost, you must think I'm such a weirdo, I couldn't even recognize your voice through that crackly mic oh my sevens..." Idia rambled on, panicked as you sank into your thoughts
He liked you. Idia Shroud liked you. You had no idea this whole time. God you didn't even know. He always teased you about how bad your mic was, but you didn't know it made your voice unrecognizable. No wonder he always complained.
" Oh sevens I'm never going to li-"
"I like you too" Your voice cut off his, coming off quieter than you intended it to be.
He paused again.
"Chat is this real," disbelief filled his voice, you like him. "This has to be a joke".
"I'm coming over, you stay right there, okay?"
"EEK-"
That, and a crash, were the last things you heard before the call disconnected.
A laugh left your lips, incredulous but happy. Maybe being stuck here really wouldn't be that bad.
synopsis: looking for his lecture notes, you stumble upon a (not so) secret revelation that your boyfriend had been keeping from you...

âCome in, my dear,â Jade beckons you into his room with a hand to his heart, making a show by bowing to you once you enter.Â
With a giggle, you take his hand and bring your study materials to his room, occupying the familiar spot beside Jadeâs chair. Your boyfriend had invited you to study with him before exam week, and it just so happened that he had some time off from the lounge to focus on his own time with you. How sweet.Â
Setting up his materials on the desk, Jade pulls out a crisp notebook from his shelf. Despite how new it looked, its pages were filled with his neat handwriting all over. Before you could comment on how smart and studious he appeared, a timer set off.Â
Smiling down to where you are seated, Jade gently tells you that your drink had finished brewing. With a kiss to your hand, your eel leaves you in his room for a moment.Â
That moment, however, would lead to something quite unexpectedâŠ
Deciding to get ahead on your review, you flip open your own study materials. Animal linguistics, potionology, magic historyâŠthere was a lot of material to cover. You were just thankful that your boyfriend happened to be a part of one of the smartest dorms on campus. Taking advantage of this fact, you took a peek at the notebook Jade had left open in hopes of seeing some tips for your studies.Â
You were expecting to see notes on mice vocabulary, or comments about the Sea Witchâs magic. Instead, your eyes were met with a shocking sight. The first page of the notebook read: Jade Leechâs 10 Year Plan.Â
Why would he leave this information laid out on the desk for anyone to see?! Well, you werenât really just âanyoneâ, but still. Between respecting Jadeâs privacy and your blooming curiosity for what he had written down (especially since the pages were filled to the brim!) you decide that it was his fault for leaving his things out in the open and ultimately distracting you from your studies. So this would be consideredâŠpayback? If he didnât agree with your logic, then you decided to pull out your signature move: girlfriend pout and girlfriend googly eyes to beg for his forgiveness.Â
Flipping past the title page, you see the first header of his plan:Â
Graduate from Night Raven College, & corner Azul into a business partnership
Hm. Fair enough. Itâs inevitable that heâd want to eventually get a bigger share of the business. You snicker at the thought of Azul cowering beneath Jade, though.Â
Skipping ahead, you see quite a few pages describing his supposed internship, how much shares he would get from his future company, and even how often he would visit the Coral Sea after graduation.Â
After reading through relatively normal Jade stuff, your eyes land on a peculiar point next.Â
Stock up on 10000 transformation potions.Â
Okaaaaay, that seems a bit extreme⊠and also, after all this time, Jade still wants to live on land? You didnât know he liked it up here so much (what you also didnât know is that you were mainly the reason why).
Moving on, you read another flustering point. On year 5, he beautifully wrote:
Purchase the ring.Â
You choke on the air and immediately put a hand to your mouth in case Jade hears you and rushes to the room. You didnât (totally did) mean to read that, but now youâre a little disappointed that it was written without your name in sight. To be fair, he couldâve just written it as a general thought for whoever he would be dating during that time (and you desperately hope that itâs still you).Â
As if to assure you that he has no other eyes for any other person, fish or not, you feel your face heat up as you flip to the next page.Â
Be a good husband to the Prefect.
You feel your heart stop on this one, and restrain yourself from shrieking in joy or exploding into a thousand pieces of Jade-shaped confetti, not wanting to mess up his room. Your efforts are at a loss, however, because the man of the hour comes back into the room, tea tray at hand.Â
First, the both of you lock eyes. Your guilty look meeting his amused smirk. Second, both of your eyes trail off to the notebook, then back at each other.Â
âIâm studying?â you pathetically say, your hand stuck page as incriminating evidence youâve just peeked at his lifeâs goals you.Â
Smile still intact, he chuckles behind his glove, "Are you sure you yourself know that?" Jade gracefully sets the tray down at his desk and hands you a cup, taking the seat next to you.Â
You clumsily try to close the notebook, but his eyes land on the page youâve stopped at.Â
After a beat, he finally speaks, âMy dear?âÂ
âY-yes, Jade? Iâm really soââÂ
âHave you looked through page 67? I wish to fine tune the details of our wedding. While marrying near our anniversary may seem ideal, I fear you might catch a cold during our eternity float, considering that itâs close to the cold season.âÂ
How is he so composed?! You canât tell if heâs upset or not.Â
âHmm, Iâm not sure. I donât think I reached that part yetâŠI stopped reading when you said you would catapult Azul back into the Coral Sea if he refused a partnership with you.â Feigning indifference, you finally close the notebook and push it further to his side of the desk, leaning a hand on your cheek to exaggerate your nonchalance.Â
âWhat is with all this talk of Azul?â He gives you his attempt at a hurt look ans a small pout, âI believe we both saw that you had landed on âBe a good husband to the Prefectâ instead of âBe a good husband to Azulâ.â With a little shudder, you see hear his voice straining a bit, and a fraction of his eyebrows twitch for a second. âIs it safe for me to assume that you are rejecting the idea of our marriage, my dear?âÂ
Though he jests, you can sense a hint of nervousness in his tone. Even though he appears to be completely composed, you know better than to believe what you see. His microexpressions tell you otherwise, and youâve spent enough time with him to know that he is uneasy. Your eel was so adorable.
âWhat?! Of course I do! I mean, I just thought that youâd get upset at me for snooping through your things...it was very tempting, you know,â You ignore the fact that he had strategically opened the notebook near your position and looked at him in the eyes, âIâd want nothing more with you.âÂ
Jade himself feels his little eel heart skip a beat, and lets out a little huff to ease his nerves. At the sound of your confirmation, he puts his hand to his chest yet again and gives you a small bow, âThen I shall look forward to it, my dear Prefect.âÂ
With a grin and an amused expression etched onto his handsome features, he looks up at you from his bow, âAre you still in the mood for studying, dear Prefect? Or perhaps youâd like to flesh out some of the plans with me?âÂ
Smiling back at him, you reach out to give him a small pinch to his cheek, âNow first, tell me, how in the world are you going to collect 10000 transformation potions?!âÂ
Extra:
 A few spaces after the marriage plan, Jade jots down a short and sweet list you completely missed:Â
He has compiled a detailed list of baby names. Possible choices if your child were to be a boy or a girl, the meanings behind them, and backup options if you were to have your own twins.Â
It seems that he has accounted for and is thrilled to have you in his future more than you anticipated.
In which GN!Reader forgets their wedding ring at home after they had a large argument with their husband, Riddle/Ace/Leona/Azul/Rielle, leading to a big misunderstanding.
Hurt/Comfort. The men grovel: need I say more? Established relationship/marriage. Gender-neutral!Reader.
Content. You start dating a guy (total NPC) and it's safe to say the other boys are jealous.
Wc. 5.3k
Would it be crazy that youâre vying for some randoâs love, regardless of the fact that there are 21 other men fighting for you? 21 others who would meet you at the drop of a pin? And you choose the loser who youâve only talked to for a total of 10 seconds in your entire life?
Well, you donât know what was going on behind closed doors so you canât be the one at blame. But thatâs why you were so oblivious to everything. From how passive aggressive theyâve been for the last few days and how avoidant they became over the topic of dating.Â
As much as youâd like to say itâs an exaggeration of some sort for dramatic effect, it really isnât.
Somehow you donât notice how much they try to get closer to youâ physically or mentally. You also donât notice how fast they respond to your every beck and call. You slowly start noticing because it feels off. Something just didnât feel right.
But, on the bright side, you really did like him⊠in a way at least.Â
He was nice, attractive and financially well-off. He practically ticked all of your boxes.
The realisation hadnât hit you on the fact that maybe you admired him a little bit more than just friends. You hadnât noticed how you started staring at him for longer than usual, thinking about him more and then the thought clicked in your mind that maybe you started to like him.
Itâs safe to say they did not like him. To them, he was nothing but an obstacleâ a hindranceâ but you thought he was everything. They saw the way your pupils dilate when he walks into the room. They notice how you get quiet and just watch him in awe for a solid second before snapping back to reality.
So they knew. They knew before the first time you mentioned this crush, which was at lunch when you were eating with the other first years.
There were hustles and bustles of people shifting around the cafeteria, people going over to sit down or throw away their trash. It was as lively as usual so you thought it would be a good time.Â
Key word: thought.
âYâknow, I think Atlas is pretty cute,â you suddenly mention.
They all go quiet, multiple pairs of skeptical gazes on you. Their moods almost seem to deflate right in front of you, if you were to actually notice it.
âWhat? Iâm serious,â you emphasise. âHeâs totally cute,â
âAtlas? What? Like the guy from Octavinelle?â Deuce clarifies, raising a brow, green eyes darting to you in confusion.
He knows heâs dumb and he sometimes canât tell if youâre joking but he canât be this dumb, right?
Oh, how he wishes you were joking.Â
âYeah, and I was thinking if you guys could help me,â you add on, biting your lip as you fiddled with your food.
If you were able to read minds, you would know how much they are fighting to say âfuck noâ straight to your face.
âHow?â Jack asked, ears perking up.
âI donât know. Maybe you guys could talk to him, invite him to the table or whatnot and maybe I can get to know him better,â you respond, crossing your arms on the wooden table.
âWouldnât that be a little awkward?â Ace mentions, as if he even cares that much.Â
âNot if you donât make it awkward,â you reply with a little too much sass than you intended originally. âAnd I think itâll be beneficial to start joining the dating game since weâre all technically adults.â
âSure, I guess,â Epel murmurs.
âI think that sounds amazing [name]!â Orthoâs the only one who seems excited by your announcement. And heâs also the only one thatâs willing to stay with you for longer than 5 minutes.
You were on the grassy field with him, disappointedly eating your apple with such roughness that your teeth threatened to fall off. The frustration had started to colonise your mind. You didnât know everything would just go so horribly so quickly, and furthermore, you didnât even know why.
They avoided you as if you were the plague, like a disease that nobody wanted to touch. But youâre not. If you were, you would know and at least understand but youâre not.
Venting to Ortho helped a lot with the pain. He was so sweet and caring. Maybe because he canât necessarily experience jealousy.
âI-I just donât know; itâs like I did something that upset everyone,â you say, sighing to yourself as you picked at the core of the apple. âWhy do men have to be so confusing? Itâs like everyday thereâs something new and I donât know whatâs going onâ I never do.â
âDonât worry, Iâm sure theyâll come around soon!â Heâs so cheerful when he says it that it makes you pause.
âŠDoes he know? He sounds sure. Too sure.
âWhat do you mean by that?â you tilt your head and give him a perplexed expression, almost accusing him of something.
He panics.Â
âUh, I meantâ theyâre going to get out of this phase! Yeah! Thatâs what I meant!â His tone is shaky and you can see the fear rushing through his robotic wires. He floats backwards and says, âIâll get going now! I think Idia is calling me!â
His robotic frame gets smaller the more he walks away before ultimately disappearing from your line of vision.
You sit uncomfortably on the grass, feeling the sharp prickles of the blades stab at your thigh. Well, that wasnât weird at allâŠ
â
The next day feels the same. No one stops for you. No one speaks to you.
At lunch, you end up eating alone. The room isnât quiet but it feels like it is, save for the hushed murmurs and the occasional glance your way. You pretend not to notice, like it isnât making you go crazy.
At this point, everyone knows that something is up, whether itâs from just observing you or from gossip thatâs spread like wildfire.
Youâre not even sure who the leak is and why they could possibly want to out you like this, but somehow, a huge chunk of the student body knows about your silly little crush. So it didnât take long for your actual crush to know.
It makes you uneasy. However, no oneâs mentioned it directly to your face⊠not until you receive a message.
Itâs the housewarden of Savanaclaw that decides to dip himself into the waters to test it.Â
[Leona]: so, howâs it going with that guy?
[You]: Itâs been going fine. I really do think it might work out.
[Leona]: âŠdo you?
[You]: Of course I do. Why wouldnât I?
[Leona]: Hm.
[You]: Whatâs that supposed to mean?
[Leona]: Nothing. Just doesnât sound very convincing.
[You]: And youâd know?
[Leona]: Iâve heard people in arranged marriages sound more convincing than you. You should learn from them.
[You]: I didnât ask for your opinion.
[Leona]: didnât say you did, but youâre still trying to prove it to me anyway.
That one sends you over the edge.
[You]: I know what I feel. And what I feel is love.
[Leona]: âŠsure, keep telling yourself that, herbivore.
The attitude was so palpable, even through the damn screen you felt it. You donât know whatâs gotten with everyone but you donât like it. From the way they start to divert their gazes to being seemingly more impatient.
When you used to ask Ace to hang out, heâd always be there for you but all of a sudden heâs always busy, despite not caring for academics. Itâs the same with almost everyone from the first years, second years and even the third years.
Even Kalim, the epitome of sunshine, seems a bit destroyed. The ones you thought wouldâve at least been there like Lilia, Trey and Malleus were all gone. Actually, some still didnât mind spending time with you, but it was awkwardâ tenser than the usual, effortless conversations that used to flow naturally.
Then, you come across Atlas in the hallways and he stops you.
â[Name], I heardâŠâ he trails. âAnd I was just thinking that maybe we can have a date on the weekends?â
The request blows your mind. What do you even say to that? Do you kneel and beg for marriage? Or do you just stand there?
Nonetheless, you keep your composure and act like this isnât totally life changing. âYes, absolutely, just text me the place and time.â You smile politely.
âI need your phone number then,â he pulls out his phone and you two exchange numbers swiftly to prevent blocking the hallway for too long.Â
You try not to break out in happy tears as you hug your device to your chest, because you feel that maybe there is some ounce of hope for you in the future of your love life.
â
Taking a sharp inhale, your knuckle taps on Vilâs door.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Then, with a soft click opens the door, you see him in all his glory.
âVil, can you please help me pick a dress for my date?â you interlock your hands together to beg, puppy eyes gracing your face.
Heâs reluctant, but he says yes anyway since he canât reject you.Â
The process was strenuous. It was no, after no, after no, after no. Almost every dress felt like it wasnât approved by both parties.
You came out with what felt like the millionth dress, which was for some reason, latex. It was tight but hugged your curves enough to flaunt it. Regardless of the fact that Atlas might like it, you definitely didnâtâ it just way too tight and felt suffocating.
âWhat about this one?â You look at yourself in the mirror.
âThatâs⊠no,â he replies, trying to cover the blush on his face. He gets closer to you, adjusting the hem and neckline, fingers lightly hovering over your skin.
Then you tried a few more on and found the perfect one. It was comfortable enough for long wear and proper enough.
âI think this is the best option,â you say.
âProbably, do you want me to do your make up as well?â he offers, opening his make up bag full of expensive brands that would normally cost you an arm & leg. For him, itâs probably just pocket change though.
You were all dolled upâ wearing the dress youâve spent a boatload of money on and the makeup that was applied using Vilâs expertise and expensive tools.Â
Thereâs a deep, gnawing pit in the blonde boyâs stomach as he tries his best to not crash out. He knows the feeling of jealousy but this was something different. Envy? Anger?Â
He clenches his jaw while the blank expression in his optics blur. His mind trails into dreamland where youâre not skipping off happily into another manâs arms, but into his. Heâs the one that hugs you and touches you and kisses you, not some loser from Octavinelle.
But itâs not. He wakes up to the same reality he dreads everyday where youâre not his.
â
The date goes smoothly, with you finally having your first kiss with him and learning more about each other. Apparently, he enjoys practically everything you doâ a match made in heaven. He watches the same shows, listens to the same music, and has the same taste in food.
Leaves crunch under your heels, skies dark, humming to yourself in satisfactory success, you accidentally trip over a sleeping body, leading you to fall forward and land on top of the perpetrator.
âI-Iâm so sorry!â You were quick to get up, hardly noticing who youâve bumped into.
âWhat theâ donât worry about it herbivore,â he changes his tone as soon as he realises who you were.Â
âLeona?â You look at him.Â
âHerbivore?â thereâs a smirk on his face. âHow was your date with that⊠guy?â
He cringes.Â
âIt went great and I think it might actually be⊠official?â you answer, a twinge of excitement intertwined.
The rolls of his eyes don't go unmissed. âAre you really sure this is what you want, herbivore?â Leona asks, unconvinced.Â
âYes!â
He grumbles.Â
âLeona! Iâ are you jealous?â You snort, the word comes out acidic but unavoidable.
He grunts. âSo what if I am?â he spits back, voice a little harsher than before.
This makes you tilt your head. Fuck. Thatâs when everything clicked for you. Youâre so stupid.
âLeona, I-Iâm sorryâŠâ you step back.Â
âHuh, youâre starting to get it now,â he clicks his tongue, watching as the realization seeps into your pores.
âB-but why?â You query.
âYou can figure that out,â he leaves the room, allowing you to sit in your own thoughts.
It takes your slow brain a while to comprehend everything.
Thatâs when you decided to confront each dorm. Even though you technically donât know whoâs at fault. But logically, itâs not fair if theyâre so upset by something like this. They donât have to be your everything.
First was Heartslabyul, where Ace & Deuce usually were at this ime.Â
hour but it was Riddle who opened the door for you. You hate the disappointed look in his eyes but youâve gotta stand your ground too.
âRiddle, can we talk?â you plead.
He stares you up and down, his soft features beaming under the light. It makes you realise how gorgeous he actually was. But you snap out of it.Â
Itâs not the time.
âSure, come in,â he answers, opening the door wider for you.
You let yourself in, spotting Ace & Deuce playing poker together, Cater scrolling on magicam, and Trey baking something of some sortsâ the wafts of baked goods coming in soft waves.Â
Turning around, you grab Riddleâs hand and squeeze it tightly. âI just wanted to say Iâm sorry.â
His ears perk up. âFor?â
âYâknowwâŠâ you bite your lip. âForr dating Atlas since I know you donât approve of him.â
Thatâs the moment before everything goes south. The conversation started to falter when more parties started to get involved.Â
âIf you were really sorry, you wouldnât have gone on a date with him!â Ace debates.
âBut I didnât know and itâs my life, I deserve to live it how I want,â you argue.Â
âYes but youâre our friend, [name].â He says. âI-I donât want to lose you,â
âAce, Iâm not dying! Iâm just going on a few dates with this guy andââ you start raising your voice higher in hopes that heâs going to understand.
He cuts you off. âBut youâve been ditching us so much lately,â
âBecause youâre avoiding me?â you question.
âWe have not. We try to talk to you but youâre stuck thinking about him in your own thoughts,â Deuce adds.
You dislike how theyâre pinning the blame on you despite the fact that theyâve been doing exactly what they accuse you of doing. The hypocrisy makes you reel.Â
âI know youâre jealous but seriously, I want to live my own life outside of you guys⊠Iâm sorry,â you shake your head in disbelief.Â
âAce, thatâs enough,â Trey scolds.Â
âAww, it was just getting good!â Cater whines, finally looking up from the screen.Â
âCater,â Riddle calls him out, causing him to immediately shut up.Â
âI-I just came here to tell you guys that Iâm thinking about making it official with him andââ you explain, only to be cut off by an annoyed Ace.
âThere you go again!â his brows furrow, jaw tightening. He soon storms off and slams the door behind him, sending all the furniture shaking. âItâs like you donât even listen!â his yells can still be heard.
âYou guys canât be this jealous,â you shake your head, plopping down onto the cushions of the couch.Â
â[Name], I really do think you should reconsider,â Riddleâs voice is stern when he talks.
âHey, itâs her life,â Trey supports you.
They all look at him in betrayal. They swore he was not on your side.Â
âThank you!â You say, gratefulness eminent in your words.
âBut I really do think you should rethink this,â Trey opposes his previous statement. âThereâs better out there,â
His tone is warm, loving even. He truly does care about you and doesnât want to just let you make choices that youâll regret. Â
âYeah, I canât imagine you betraying me for someone else,â Cater hugs you, the heat of proximity radiating from his body onto yours.
Maybe theyâre right. It might not be the best time to start dating and the pool is vast. Thereâs so much more to life than this and if dating this guy means sacrificing your entire friends list, maybe itâs not worth it.
Youâre conflicted.
The walk to Savanaclaw was stressful. Mind racing like formula cars in the last lap, switching between your relationship or your friends. This only leads your trepidation to increase. Adrenaline rushed through your veins as thereâs no telling what the future may hold.
âHey [name]! Howâs your relationship going?â The hyena boyâs voice is cheery as he greets you. âAre yaâ here to see Jack?â
âNo, I, kinda?â you stutter, not able to make coherent sentences. âListen, Iâm just asking for some input before my relationship with you-know-who escalates.â
Your approach is different.
âMy input?â disbelief washes over his face.
âYeah,â you confirm.
He thinks with a hand on his chin as if heâs in a cartoon. âI donât really think you should date at all yâknow. Maybe you should wait until like graduation or something.â His hands go outwards into a shrug. âBut itâs all up to you! After all, itâs not just my business. Hope this guyâs really worth the time though,â
He flees the scene, light footsteps as he disappears into the dark.
The last part of his speech lingers in the back of your mind. Nonetheless, meeting Ruggie was so much more refreshing than you thought. It was nice to meet someone who had a more positive outlook on life despite totally rejecting your relationship in its entirety.
Jackâs eyes dart from you onto the ground. He pretends as if he doesnât see you, only worsening the growing guilt inside you.Â
âJack, itâs been a while,â you start the conversation. âHow are you?â
He breathes. âGood, what do you need?â
The shift in his words are a tell-tale sign. The âgoodâ seems forced, as if itâs far from what heâs showing.
âI just wanted to ask you if you approve of my relationship with Atlas, since not many of you do apparentlyâŠâ explained by you.
He puts down the book he was reading, or at least looking at. âI think itâs fine,âÂ
âWhat?â
âYeah but I donât know what heâs like so I canât tell you if I approve or not,â he pauses. âBut if he does anything, please tell me,â
It makes your heart melt.Â
âThanks Jack
Itâs like they all have the same script (like that stupid AI study tool ads by college students). You wouldâve spoken to Leona, but he was nowhere to be seen so you just decided to leave it and continue onto the next dorm.
He wouldâve said something like: âdo whatever you want, but donât come crying if something goes wrong,â and you donât really feel like dealing with the guilt trip.
Octavinelle, alone, was one of the worst experiences mainly because of Floyd.
Heâd been so obviously rampaging everywhere and anywhere, seeing you only made it worse. At this point, theÂ
âEhh Shrimpy, whatâre you doing here?â he moans with an absolute look of despair. âDonât you have a date to get to?â
âNot anymore, but I do want to ask you about it,â you answer calmly, hoping itâll be reflected onto him or something.Â
âYerâ literally ditching us for lower class octavinelle guy, heâs ooo boooorringg like thereâs better in this dorm yaâ know?â he holds his neck with that terrifying glare that drills holes into you.
You opened your mouth to speak.
Then, Azul appears with Jade from the dark. âHmm⊠what is this about?â he is beaming, hands behind his back like heâs some sort of master from a martial arts movie.
âI was just gonna ask your guysâ opinion on Atlas⊠before I date him officially or something,â you mumble.Â
That seems to be enough to calm Floyd down.Â
âWell, why didnât yaâ say so Shrimpy?!â he cheers, going over to give you a tight squeeze⊠that knocks all the oxygen out of your lungs.
Luckily, itâs only brief so youâre dropped very soon, left to choke on air.Â
âThatâs good to hear,â the corner of Jadeâs lips tug. âI do hope heâs suitable for you if you do choose him.â
âYes, but I donât think thatâs happening if a majority of everyone disagrees,â you state.
The blue-haired boy fights back the smirk. âVery well, then I donât think you need our input.â
âWell, I might need more than just a simple yes or no,â you add.
Jade and Azul exchanged a brief glance, but itâs Floyd who speaks first.
âI just donât wanna share you, Shrimpy~â Floyd reasons, hands wrapped around your waist to give you a back hug and his head resting atop yours.
You facepalm, sighing. âThat canât be your reason, Floyd.â
âWell it is,â he giggles, nuzzling his nose into your neck.
âIf this individual brings you benefits then I see no issue,â Azul claims. âBut I do wonder what he has that makes him so special.â
You sigh for the umpteenth time. âHeâs nice, shares the same interests with me and pretty well-off soâŠâ
âHow interesting, I didnât know that was your type but I do hope he is worthy of your attention,â Jade forces a grin.
âBut heâs soo boring. Just dump him,â Floyd groans, feeling a bit upset that his twin and boss arenât convincing you to ditch him.
âWell, thanks guys, Iâll get going nowâŠâ you pry off the eelâs arms and dash out the door.
They stared as you ran off, murmuring amongst themselves that you have no idea if you want to hear or not.
Now youâre off to Scarabia. The first thing you saw as soon as you stepped past the threshold was Jamil cooking in the kitchen, seemingly pretty occupied by something.
âJamil?â you peep past the wall.
He turns his head. â[Name]...â
âMay I come in?â you ask.
âYeah, but Kalimâs been pretty upset recently so Iâm not sure if he canââ he starts talking again, only for you to interrupt.
âThatâs exactly why Iâm here. I donât think everyone exactly agrees with me and I just wanted to know what everyone thought about it.â You answer.
âDo you even know him that well? How do you know heâs not lying?â Jamil asks, expertly cutting the vegetables on the board. âWhy are you even asking me this?â
The question comes out passive-aggressive. You donât know if he actually meant it that way or what but frankly, you feel offended that he would ask such a thing.
âJamil, I hold you very dear to me and I canât just let something like this get between us,â you get closer to him.
He takes a deep breath. âItâs none of my business and itâs your life,â
You hate how he avoids your gazeâ how he refuses to just spare you a glance. So, out of pure frustration and anger, you grab his wrists and force him to look you in your eyes.Â
âJamil, youâre precious to me. What donât you understand about it? I love you,â
His heart thumps louder. âOf course Iâm upset.â He finally admits. âI donât like seeing you with him.Â
Well, thatâs out of the way. Thatâs 12 votes against you and Atlas. Only 9 more to go! At this point you probably shouldâve given up on hoping for at least 1 person to agree with you. Not just saying that itâs your life, but also on the whole relationship itself.
You offered Jamil to deliver Kalimâs food since it seemed appropriate at the time and you owed the vice-housewarden some grace.
Kalimâs defeated. Stumped. Dejected.Â
Thereâs barely enough words to describe how he barely has enough energy to move and his eyes are blood-shot red.Â
âWhy are you ditching us for him? I miss you a lot, [name].â Kalim says in between his sobs and sniffles.
âWe can still hang out,â you say empathetically. âHey, Iâll stop talking to him if it bothers you so much,â
âReally? I-I thought it was gonna be okay but I donât like you with him,â you can hear the pain in his throat as he spoke.
âVery well then,â was the last thing you said before departing to Pomefiore.
Rook hid in the trees, waiting for you, knowing that you were coming. He immediately jumped out from seemingly nowhere and greeted you, making you jump.Â
âBonjour trickster! What brings you here today?â The blonde asks.Â
âGAHâ ROOK! You canât just come outta nowhere and scare me like that!â You scold him, pinching your nose bridge in disappointment. âBut, I was here to ask if you would support me dating Atlas?â
âAbsolutely! Love is a magnificent force⊠yet I do wonder, does he truly see your beauty in all its glory?â He twists the sentence to bring your hopes up to break it all down in an instant.
âHe does, thank you very much,â you say sarcastically.Â
âWill you be staying here for long? I do not mind sharing a bed with you!â He excitedly says.
âNo, Iâm sorry but Iâm only here to check up on everyone,â you respond, before saying your goodbyes and rushing to Epelâs room.
Thereâs a soft whisper of âto think someone stands in where I wish to beâŠâ from him as soon as youâre out of earshot.
Epelâs probably one of the more furious onesâ you can see it in his soft features but he tries his best not to.
âSo⊠what do you think?â you ask.Â
âYou could do way better than him yâknow,â Epel says. âHeâs not the only one that can make yaâ happy,â
âI know, I know.â You repeat. âDo you know where Vil is⊠since I need to talk to him about this as well,â
âHeâs out doing some shoot,â Epel replies, short and firm.Â
âOhâŠâ you blink. âAlright, Iâll get going then.â
Idiaâs the one youâre most neutral about. Heâs frightened and annoyed all in one emotion. Heâs made peace with the fact that youâre not his to claim but annoyed with you for not noticing⊠or for him not trying.
He opens the door only by a bitâ enough to see tiny parts of you and for the sound to come through.Â
â[N-name], what are you here for?â He speaks in a terrified tone.
âIdia, can we talk?â Your voice comes from the other side.
He swore the hairs on the back of his neck stood up, and his blue hair flared dramatically.
âA-about what?â His sentences are executed in short stutters.
âLet me in then Iâll tell you,â something in your tone is sharp and condescending that scares Idia even more, but it worksâŠ
He opens the door wider with reluctance.Â
âW-what do you want to talk about?â He asks, retreating back to his gaming chair, watching you carefully.
âI wanted to talk about my relationship with Atlas,â you explain yourself.
âOh, right. Your boyfriend. Good for you,â he mutters.
âNot yet my boyfriend,â you correct him.
âCool,â he replies, only building the awkwardness more.
âDo you approve? Cus it seems to me like you donât,â you state.
He feels the pressure youâre exerting onto him. âUhâ I mean⊠itâs not like I care about who you hang out with orââ
Your patience wears thin. âCut the crap Idia. Just tell me if youâre upset or not,âÂ
âY-yeah, I am⊠I guess,â his words are soft and almost missed but you heard it.
With every dorm, it felt like your whole world shattered and collapsed onto you. So far, only Rook seemed to be the only one that mightâve accepted it, while the rest were more⊠in disbelief.
Lastly, Diasomnia seemed to be the most daunting one to overcome. Despite your fear of Malleus being relatively low, youâre kinda risking Atlasâs life.Â
Jealousy does not suit them, but thereâs still a nagging question in your mind that wonders if theyâre actually looking out for you or trying to keep you for themselves.
The first one you spotted was Sebek, training casually in the yard, sweating buckets as he continuously struck the mannequin with his sword.Â
âHey,â you walked from behind, startling him.
âHUMAN!â He jumps back, spinning on his heel and ready to attack, but heâs quick to halt as soon as he notices itâs you. âWHAT DO YOU NEED, HUMAN?â
âYou can stop screaming Sebek,â you glare at him with uninterested eyes. âAnyways, I really need to ask you something.â
âWhat is it?â He calms down.
âDo you think me and Atlas make a cute couple?â You ask.
âThat human is untrustworthy!â He whisper-screams. âDo not be with him!â
âOh geez, okayâŠâ you hadnât expected him to be so straight-forward but itâs Sebek so you shouldâve known better.
âI think you can do better!â He states as a matter of fact.
âLikeâŠ?â You raise a brow.
He blushes. âLIKEâ LIKEâ MALLEUS!â He yells.
âWoah,â your mouth is left agape.
âI-I MEAN YOUR STANDARDS SHOULD BE MALLEUS!â Panic rises in his voice.
âYep, I got it the first time,â you say. âIâm gonna go find Silver now,â
âOKAY,â
Honestly, you forgot how overstimulatingly loud Malleusâs biggest simp can be.
Silver was the next person you wanted to interview, despite the fact that heâs probably sound asleep somewhere.
He was, true to your word, asleep peacefully on the ground. Your footsteps are light as you tried to prevent him waking up, but he catches it anyway and starts to wake up.
â[Name]...â he groans.
âSilver?â You turn around, quick to rush over to him and kneel to his level. âAre you okay?â
âY-yeah, but what are you doing here?â he blinks awake.
âI wanted to ask what you think of me dating this guy⊠his name is Atlas and,â you pause.
âI know, and if it makes you happy, then I approve.â Silver says.
âThanks Silver,â you pat him before walking away.Â
He seemed⊠disingenuous? It plagued your mind for a good few seconds until the mischievous black-pink haired man decided to jumpscare you.
âLILIA!â you screamed.
âHahaha! Whatâs up, [name]? Boy, do I miss your adorable, surprised face,â heâs smiling ear to ear.Â
âI-Iâm glad you missed me⊠especially since youâve been avoiding me,â you whisper the last part.
âI havenât, or maybe I have. Anyways, what are you here for?â He shoots the same question that everybodyâs asked.
You explain. Again.
âDoes he make you happy?â A more mature side of him comes out, showing the centuries of experience he has.
âHe does,â your response does not warrant the most positive reaction from him.
âBe careful with who you hang out with, not everyone is worth your time,â he grins, pretending he didnât say the most puzzling sentence in history.
Malleus wasnât far away
âYou seem happy with him,â hornton replies.
You press your lips into a thin line. âI am, but I wonât be if everyone objects,â
âI cannot lie that I wasnât hoping it would be different,â Malleus states.
âWhat do you mean?â You tilt your head.
âI wouldâve preferred if you chose someone else, child of man.â He elucidates.
Walking out of the final dorm, you let out an exhausted breath of air, not realising how suffocating the day had gone. Amongst the crunches of the leaves beneath you lies the sound of a notification from your phone.
[Atlas]: hey, iâm sorry but i think this is not gonna work outâŠ
A/n: I decided to give you all a break from my usual sad tormenting/agonizing storiesđ„° enjoy!
Words: 1.1k
Pairing: Silver Vanrouge x fem! Reader
Warnings: none just pure fluff and kinda crack fic?
-
Lilia was SICK and I mean SICK and TIRED of the lovesick and utterly helpless look his son always had on his face every time you were near their line of vision.
He knew about his son's huge crush on you. I mean how could he not with the way silver LOOKS at you like youâre the only thing in this world?! Soft eyes staring at you with nothing but admiration and attention.
Can his son not be any more obvious?
Lilia tried to talk to him about it. Get him to make a move so his son can be happy. Totally not because heâs excited for potential grandbabies
Anyways
Silver dismissed his fatherâs proposal of setting the two of you up for a date. He said that he wasnât sure if you even liked him back, thinking you probably liked one of your first year friends due to your closeness with them.
Which almost made Lilia laugh
ALMOST
Itâs painfully obvious of your relationship with those two heartslabyul guys. He once heard you say how you view them as siblings, which made him cackle from seeing the reactions of your two friends who looked absolutely mortified. Leaving you confused on why the older fae found it funny.
But that was during the first few months of you being here, after that the duo started seeing you as a very close friend/sister.
ANYWAYS ENOUGH OF THAT
Lilia is sick and absolutely TIRED of seeing his son sulk and love you from afar. Trust me heâs seen his son stare at you like a divorced man that fumbled his beautiful ex wife and wants her back. So heâs going to finally take matters into his own hands and start setting up plans and ways to get you and his son together. (And maybe also pray to the great sevens for extra measures)
-
âIn the count of three, we all show our resultsâ
âOneâŠâ
âTwoâŠâ
âThree!!â You all turn your papers around and stare at your scores. You visibly cringe at seeing your barely passing score. The loud noise from Ace made you turn around as you saw him jaw slacked. Staring at his own paper in horror.
âNo wayâ
âThis canât be! I studied for weeks!â You patted deuce back gently. Feeling a bit bad for both of your friends.
âAt least crewel is giving us a second chance to get a better score than the one we have!â You tell them. Ace slowly turns his head to face you, you smiled as you ignored his eye twitch.
âSecond chance? Yeah no Iâm screwedâ You hear a loud thud come from your side, you turn to see deuce head on the table.
âWe canât have riddle find out about thisâŠheâll kill us and make us clean vorpal stablesâŠâ He slurs. You sigh and set your paper down.
âI wish I had someone to tutor meâŠâ
And like a genie, Lilia appears out of nowhere.
Seriously, he just spawned out of nowhere.
âI know the perfect person!â The three of you scream.
âWhat the- Lilia?!â The fae ignores Ace as he beams at you.
âWhy donât you let my son tutor you? Silver is very good at history of magic! In fact, he scored a 100 on the recent test-â
He went on a full 30 minute rant about silverâs academic achievement as you, Ace, and deuce endured it all, much to silver's horror as he quickly came in and dragged Lilia away as he apologized with a red face.
But you did come to him and nervously asked if he could tutor you! (And he obviously said yes)
-
The next attempt happened when you were in Vargas class. You and epel were busy doing your daily stretches when vargas suddenly told everyone to partner up. Since you and epel were already together, the two of you decided to pair up.
Well imagine both of your surprise when you turn to hand Epel a broom only for you to bump straight into silvers chest.
âOof!â
You look to see a very red faced and embarrassed silver while Epel was straight up confused on how he got to the other side of the field with a giddy Lilia next to him. Epel's eyes narrowed as he looked between you and silver before turning back to look at Lilia who was next to him. AgainâŠhow in the great sevens did he end up on the other side of the field?!
âIâm partnered with Epel! You and Silver get toget- uh partner up!â Lila shouts as he clutches onto the broom in his hands.
âBut I was alrea-â
âDonât ruin this for meâ
-
The attempts went on for a while. From silver being your history of magic tutor to him showing you how to ride a horse, to then teaching you about the different animals twisted wonderland had, to-
Well, you get it.
Lilia noticed how much more his son started falling for you. The both of you sit together outside for lunch now, youâre busy talking about what went on with your day while silver just sits there quietly admiring you.
Lilia feels like shedding tears and already hears the sounds of wedding bells.
But after two weeks of trying to get his son to make a move, an old man gets tired eventually.
So now here he is, standing in the common room of diasomnia as he paces back and forth.
âI tried everything already! I love to see that the two grew closer BUT! I need silver to make a move already!â
Both sebek and malleus look puzzled. The two of them looked at each other before looking back at a stressed out Lilia who was busy ranting out his thoughts.
âUm, lil-â
âNot now sebekâ The poor first year couldnât do anything but sigh as he watched the older fae mumble.
Mallues clears his throat, Lilia looks over for a second before going back to his rambling, clearly letting the younger fae know heâs listening despite his situation.
âIâm surprised youâre stressing yourself out about young silver happy love lifeâ Lilia pauses. He turns to mallues with a confused expression.
âHappy? I do-â He gets cut off as the door to the common room bursts open. The three of then turn around to see a very happy and giggling silver and you as the two of you walk hand and hand.
Lilia jaw drop.
âW-when did this happen?â
âA month agoâ
A MONTH?!
Mallues greets you both with a welcoming smile as sebek lets out a disappointed sigh.
âI tried to tell you Lilia-samaâ
A loud thud echoes through the room as you all gasp.
âFather!â
âOh no! Lilia are you okay?!â
The old fae has passed out. But the four of you didnât miss the big ole smile he had on his face as he mumbled about his future quote on quote, âgrandbabiesâ.
I hate the anguish of the "mortal's wife" trope from Malleus Draconia because it makes no sense.
I mean, there are literally GHOSTS in Twisted Wonderland, beings that are bound to the physical world because they have not yet finished their unfinished business, as was the case with Eliza.
If the great Malleus Draconia can have a human spouse, then why couldn't he have a spectral spouse? If I were his wife, I would be more than happy to float and pass through walls for centuries if that meant accompanying him until the day he dies.
And don't forget that the entire fairy court would be shocked because, how is the human still here? Wasn't her funeral last week?
Meanwhile, Malleus informs them of the Queen of the Valley's new spectral form and that there should no longer be any concerns about her mortal condition because from now on she will accompany him until the day he perishes.
Imagine the reactions of all those annoying fairies, or worse, of the children the Draconia couple must have had, when they see that their mother is a ghost now.
The poor creatures don't understand what's happening, but like their father, they are happy that their mother hasn't left.
Eventually, stories will be told throughout the centuries about the dragon king and his ghostly consort who followed him to the end of his days.
