So, April first repeats, over and over and over again, and Watanuki just… goes with it. Goes with the same breakfasts, the same festival, and the same sidestep between two stalls when he sees Himawari-chan.
Goes with the same lengths of time spent laughing with Doumeki and feeding each other sweet treats (and definitely not thinking about how it all feels like a date, each and every single time), and ignoring the fact that none of this is actually real.
Because it's better this way.
Nobody's getting hurt this way.
Everyone is, if not happy, then at least content, this way.
~
(And if one of those loops ends with him being pulled behind a food stall and kissed to within an inch of his life only to wake up alone in his bed again… Well, it's not like anyone's going to witness his embarrassment and frustration and remember it, anyway.)

Summary:
little bit unexpected (ready for my crown, though)
~
Sitting on one of the armrests of Luffy's armchair, Nami flicks lightly at the ridiculous, tilted crown on his head and smiles.
He scrunches his nose up at her, looking his usual brand of confused, before his face splits into the most blinding of grins. "See, Nami? Told you I'd become the Pirate King one day."
Nami snorts, insufferably fond. "Of course you did." She flicks his nose this time. "I wouldn't have followed you around for so long otherwise," she says, and reaches over to pull on one of his cheeks.
Luffy laughs, full-bellied, loud. Somehow, that, that laugh is still the same, after all these years, after all the fights and the losses and the adventures. Luffy's laughter is still as bright as it was the first time Nami met him. It makes her entire core warm up. I followed a good man, as weird as he may be.
"Will you pick a queen, your majesty?" someone pipes up from somewhere across the room, and for some reason, something twists in Nami's gut. Luffy having a queen... The thought tastes somewhat bitter on the back of her throat. She frowns. It's stupid.
The room breaks out into roaring laughter, their crewmates and their friends finding the concept of Luffy in some sort of romantic relationship absolutely ludicrous and hilarious. Nami doesn't think about why she doesn't.
Someone else suggests Boa Hancock and suddenly, the laughter turns to jeers and wolf whistles and encouragements. Another throws in Princess Vivi as a possibility, and Nami wonders what her face is doing because she catches a glance at Zoro and he's looking at her like he knows something she doesn't. It grates.
"Nah," Luffy says with a wave of his hand. His other hand, his entire other arm, better said, slowly wraps itself round and around Nami's midrift, and it makes her breath catch. She blinks down at the hand that's flattened itself to her ribcage, and then at its owner, just in time to hear Luffy say, "I already have Nami. What more could I need?"
And that's-
That's-
She looks back at Zoro, then at Sanji and at Robin, and she sees only amused and knowing and approving smiles on their faces.
It makes Nami's own face suddenly burn like a raging inferno. "What?" she starts, turning her gaze back to Luffy. "Who said you can make those kinds of decisions by yourself, you idiot? Don't I have a say in this?!" And she tries to sound pissed off, she really does, but it comes out more embarrassed than anything else, and it's really, really annoying. Nami thinks she's probably going to kill someone before the night's over.
Luffy laughs again, high-pitched, and stretches his free hand up and behind him, until he can grab his precious straw hat from where it's been hanging on the corner of the chair's backrest. "I'm the Pirate King," he says, pressing the hat on Nami's head like he's done a dozen, no, a hundred times before. "What I say goes."
And Nami... well, how can she argue with that, really?
And so she pulls the hat lower on her face, to hide her fiery red cheeks from the others, and pinches Luffy's cheek again.
Wei Wuxian knows it is, but at the same time, he knows it means a lot to Lan Zhan.
He looks at the pure white headband, the small, silver filigree Lan cloud shining gently in the evening light as it sits meticulously folded on the nightstand by Lan Zhan’s bed, and he’s suddenly overwhelmed by the need to try it on.
(He knows he shouldn’t, knows Lan Zhan will raise hell if he sees Wei Wuxian touching it again, but honestly? He can’t help himself.)
He picks it up, quietly, carefully, and sits in front of one of the low table mirrors in their room. Holds his breath as he ties the ribbon around his head.
And it’s-
It’s-
His face heats up, sudden and shocking, and Wei Wuxian cannot tear his eyes away from his reflection for a long moment, breathless. His heart races.
I look like a Lan.
A rustling noise sounds from behind him, and it snaps Wei Wuxian out of his trance with a sharp inhale.
Shit, he thinks, untying the Lan ribbon with trembling hands. Shit, shit.
This isn’t- It was only supposed to be a bit of fun. He wasn’t supposed to- Shit.
He returns the ribbon back to Lan Zhan’s bedside table and goes back to his own bed on shaky legs.

Summary:
‘“I don’t need a babysitter!” Robin snaps in his squeaky little voice. Christ, how old is this kid? They seem to get younger every time. There’s no way Bats actually let this kid out by himself, which means either he’s somewhere lurking in the shadows, or that Robin snuck out. One of those options is bad news for Roman. The other…‘

It's been about three weeks since Jason got turned into a werewolf, and Dick likes to think they're adjusting pretty well to all the changes. The biggest is probably the fact that when in wolf form, Jason tends to lose a lot of that strict self-control he always has as a human, is a lot more...touchy than Dick knows his brother would be proud of.
Dick doesn't expect the turn it takes. Doesn't expect to like it.
