{June x GN! reader}

[tw: None just some cute fluff]

You sat at your desk, the orange glow leaking through the windows reminding you just how long you have been sorting through these papers. Sei was out on important business, meaning you had to cover for him. It wasn’t a problem, at least, not at first. As time went on, things became much more troublesome. Kati and Cyrille came into your study not too long ago to ask your opinion on which one of them is better, and just earlier, Day and Atachi managed to break a vase while playing some game in the hall.

You sighed and stared down at your papers. ‘Sei had to do this all the time? AND he never complained?’ you thought. This gave you a new appreciation for the housemaster, and, in some way, it gave you the motivation to carry on with the paperwork as well. This boost of energy, however, did not last very long, as you found yourself staring idly and the stack of papers.

And then, a knock on the door. You had ignored it, hoping whoever was behind the door would leave you to your work. The knocking once again started. You guess whoever was at the door, was not getting the message. You sighed and started to work on the sheet of paper in front of you.

“Come in…” you beckoned. The door opened to reveal an energetic ginger with a smile on his face. This smile always found a way to brighten your day, but this time the smile you gave reeked of insincerity.

“Manager! So this is where you’ve been hiding! It’s lovely to see you this evening! Especially since I haven't seen you all day!” June spoke in a cheerful manner, as he always did. He approached the desk you were seated at. You looked up at the man and rubbed your eyes.

“Ah… Yes. I’ve been a little caught up…” June’s eyes scanned your desk and his eyes fell on the two stacks of paper that were on either side of you. They were about the same size, one being a little taller than the other. June then glimpsed at the paper you were currently writing on and saw how you placed it on the slightly taller stack.

“You’ve been working hard I see! Is this from the week? You’re making excellent progress!”

“Well yes and no. This is all from today. I couldn’t do it the last couple days because of our missions, then the catastrophe with Day and Atachi, then the fight with Kati and Cyrille, don’t even mention the kitchen fiasco. I don’t know how Sei does all of this.” Your eyes shifted towards the window, you noted the sun was setting. When’s the last time you watched a sunset? Let alone take a break. Your eyes were captivated by the shifting orange and red hues outside your window.

“Would you like to watch it with me?” June’s voice broke you out of your trance and your head swung towards him.

“W-what?” You were lucky that the warm tones were illuminating your face. The reddish hues to your cheeks wouldn’t be easily noticed. Was June really asking you this? Right Now? You would love nothing more than to go out and watch the sunset with June. Even for a fleeting minute, It would feel like heaven.

“I asked around, and no one has seen you come out of your office...and you’ve already completed all of this work,” Junes' eyes hinted towards the stack of papers on your desk, “You’re overworking yourself...Please take a break...with me?” The smile on June’s face was innocent, kind, ethereal even. Your heartbeat quickened, you were sure June could notice the blush on your cheeks now. It was probably as fiery as his hair.

“I...I would love too, but...I-” You were quickly cut off by June’s sudden movements. Your feet were suddenly off the ground, strong arms around your frame. You looked up at June who was now carrying you bridal style.

“Sorry Manager, but I wasn’t going to take no for an answer” He said in between chuckles. He quickly ran out of your office, you only could hope no one saw you two running down the halls and out one of the back doors. He sat you down gently, unlike how he just swung you through the hall in his arms. Though, of course, you weren’t complaining. The two of you sat down on the soft grass. Your heartbeat still heightened from the closeness of June, and the whole situation you too just went through, or should I say ran through. You stared at the ground, a meek attempt to hide your burning face.

“Manager...I will always believe you are doing well, in everything you do... I hope you know that, I will always be here for you. My arms will always be here to help you if the load gets too heavy to carry by yourself! I hope to always be by your side...If you’ll let me of course.” June let out a nervous chuckle looking down at your hands and interlocking them. You smiled at him, how could he go from a hyperactive golden retriever to a nervous sweetheart?

“I think I would like that…” and with this you turned your gaze towards the setting sun. June’s gaze, however, still lingered on you. Mesmerized by the way the light framed your features. No matter how hard he tried he could tear his gaze away from the sight.

After all, why watch a sunset when you have something ten times more magnificent in front of you? That’s what June thinks anyway.

hi! afterl!fe closed and now im sad 😭 so is it possible to give us a short story or something for some closure that the game never gave us? i only saw one other account post a proper goodbye story and it doesnt help that i feel so empty.

Hey! Sorry that I took so long, I was procrastinating really badly. I hope you will like it anyway!

How cruel, you thought. Letting you stay with the soul reapers long enough to get attached to them, only to forcefully rip them from you shortly after. You zipped up the last bag with your belongings and slung it over your shoulder, leaving the room that you slept in for the past year and slowly making your way towards the exit.

You had already said goodbye to each of the reapers, receiving a letter and an eternal flower from all of them. You weren’t ready to read those letters yet, but perhaps they would be a comfort after some time. As you reached the exit, you began regretting your decision to say goodbye to your friends beforehand, wishing nothing more than to see them one more time before you had to leave. Turns out you weren’t the only one with that desire. Before you could process what was happening, a pair of arms threw themselves around you from behind, pulling you into a tight hug. You turned your head and saw Ell, accompanied by all the other soul reapers. You teared up as you saw them, the wish to stay arising stronger than ever within you. But unfortunately, there was nothing that could be done. One by one, your friends stepped forward and gave you a warm hug. All of them were just as sad as you about your departure, even Ethan had tears in his eyes. After all of them embraced you, you slowly turned around again, the reapers waving to you with sad smiles and shouting one last goodbye in your direction. Just as you almost stepped through the exit completely, you turned around once more and shouted: “I’ll be back! I promise!” 

This wouldn’t be the last time you saw your friends. One day, you would be their manager again. And when that day comes, you knew they were going to welcome you with open arms and smiling faces once again.

Can I ask for “Carry me?” with Quincy? Please and thank you for the good afterlife content! ❤️

(I messed around with the quote a bit to make it fit)

Quincy: 

It really started off as Quincy trying to tease you.

“I bet you can’t even carry someone as light as me!” He’d boldly stated, laughing and crossing his arms with a cocky look on his face; you weren’t one to generally give into Quincy’s unnecessarily trying to insult others due to his own insecurities and awkwardness but today you felt the need to strike back.

“You think so?”

You’d barely given him a moment to respond to your comment before you literally and figuratively swept him off his feet, holding him in your arms like he was a beloved family pet and not a devil who had a raging crush on you. You set his heart alight immediately due to the close contact and he had wrapped his arms around your neck out of reflex, squeezing tightly as he wasn’t fond of the thought that you might drop him on his ass. Your arms don’t waver at all, though, holding him against you with ease even as he wiggled around and ordered you to release him. His words don’t match his actions as his arms cradle you closer, turning to look up at you as he finally quieted his complaints and enjoyed the feeling of being held by you.

“If you wanted to be in my arms you should’ve just said so.”

“I-I didn’t want to be in your arms! What gave you that idea?!”

“Do all devils speak like it’s opposite day all the time or is that just a personal quirk? Anyway, I like having you in my arms.” Quincy inhaled sharply as your nose brushed through his hair, the close contact once again reminding him of the position the two of you were in, “You smell really good, you know? Kinda like a campfire.”

“Don’t make fun of me when you’re holding me like this!”

“It wasn’t an insult. I like the smell of a nice campfire, just as much as I like you, Quincy.”

For once, he was speechless.

hii !! could i ask for nine, theo and ethan with a very clumsy MC? like, constantly tripping and bumping into things :) thank you in advance 💗 i love your blog

Ethan: 

Ethan is the king of keeping an eye out for you and often acts before you have the chance to knock something over or trip, helping you keep your body clear of bruises and cuts that happen at your weakest moments. He tries to scold you and tell you to pay extra attention, to focus on what you’re doing without getting distracted, but that doesn’t always help. He’s quietly resigned himself to his fate of taking care of a clumsy person who he never wants to see hurt, working overtime on this job while ignoring the teasing of others who can tell he’s doing it out of the kindness of his heart (that they don’t always think he has). 

Nine: 

If Nine sees you doing anything that might get you hurt he urges you to stop, grabbing ahold of you before you fall on your face or calling out for someone else who’s closer to grab onto you before you get hurt. He seems exhausted by how easily you seem to tumble over but it’s all born from worry as he doesn’t want you to end up seriously hurting yourself because you weren’t paying attention or your balance was off. He tries to stay directly by your side whenever you’re in the same room together just in case he has to save you from making a mess of a poor inanimate object that couldn’t have possibly moved into your path. 

Theo: 

Being clumsy also meant you had a tendency to knock things over or not fix things as neatly as he would like, making Theo take on most of the work when it comes to cleaning up after you. He can’t hold it against you as he knows you’re not purposely clumsy but he wonders if there’s some way to help you help yourself so that chaos doesn’t follow you every time you walk in a room. He’ll go to ask you to do something for him but quickly realizes it’ll be better to do it himself but he’s quite proud of you whenever you handle a task without fumbling.

Hello. Was wondering if I could request a 'Ghilley getting flustered' situation? I think it might be fun to see him on the reciving end. Thanks for running such a fun blog~

Ghilley: 

It’s very, very hard to get Ghilley flustered. Even if he is surprised at one point or another he’s good at hiding it, laughing away as he sees you pouting over your failed prank. He thinks it’s cute you want to see his surprised face but he’s been through a lot in his days so he doubts there’s anything you might do to shock him. 

Ghilley’s weakness is in genuine affection and physical touch. He’s used to this from Licht but when it comes from you, even after you’re together, he feels thrown off balance. He’s mostly thrown off because he doesn’t know how to respond to your gentle touches, your soft kisses, how good it makes him feel to hear that you love him with your entire heart. The fact you can continue going on and on without fail when it comes to listing the things you love about him and all the happy memories you have has Ghilley close to tears, knowing that he’d waited a long time to find someone like you. 

Ghilley eventually learns to fire back when your loving behavior pops up, able to say the most embarrassingly cutesy things it makes you flustered. It quickly turns into a competition to see who would give in first which eventually ends with the two of you tangled up in each other’s arms, giggling at the silliness of the situation and feeling like you’re both falling even more in love with the other.

👀 w/ noah, licht & youssef

Licht: 

👀 Are they protective?

Licht openly worries about and cares for you, unable to contain himself if he hears someone talking poorly about you or if he sees you’re under attack. He always leaps before he looks when it comes to you and it can end with some awkward situations but you at least know you can rely on him in your times of need. Licht openly refers to himself as your protector and tells you that you should learn to lean on him when you need it, making some dramatic display of his love to show how serious he is. 

Noah: 

👀 Are they protective?

Noah is the silent watcher type, always seeming to pop up at the moments you’re in the most trouble to sweep you off your feet like some sort of prince charming type. He just has a natural sense for when you’re in danger and since it’s a feeling he can’t shake until he checks on you, it’s why he appears to show up just when you need him. He can get quite agitated if someone is being too pushy or aggressive towards you and he lets out a ‘back off’ aura inadvertently during any confrontations which is enough to chase even the bravest of souls away. 

Youssef: 

👀 Are they protective?

Youssef is more a ‘protect from afar’ type lover, one who’s always watching over you like a guardian angel but who rarely interferes unless the situation calls for it. He trusts in your ability to defend yourself but he makes it known that he’s always there for you should you need him, and he works behind the scenes (once again, only if he needs to) to assure that you’re being treated with the proper respect. He’ll pretend like he has nothing to do with it but Youssef is truly always looking out for you with no need to tell you all that he does for you.

Hi! Would you possibly do 🥰 for Verine, Ghilley, and Ethan please? Thank you!

Ethan: 

🥰 How often do they stare lovingly at their s/o?

Ethan is relatively decent at hiding his staring and he generally does his best to focus on the work at hand, but there are moments where even he slips up and finds himself openly watching you. He can’t help that he finds you to be beautiful and interesting to watch but he’ll always deny it when it’s pointed out by others, trying not to let the blush rise to his cheeks to show how guilty he was of it. He does it often enough that anyone who interacts with him knows how sweet on you he is but others are likely not to notice. 

Ghilley: 

🥰 How often do they stare lovingly at their s/o?

Ghilley is the master of staring at you without being caught, especially when he can enter a room with his silent footsteps causing no one to notice him. When you do catch him he simply sends you a mischievous smile that has your heart racing, knowing he didn’t really mind being caught as he made his feelings for you as clear as day. Ghilley always found himself staring at you lovingly, longingly, wishing it was time to retire back to your rooms that night so he could cuddle up with you. 

Verine: 

🥰 How often do they stare lovingly at their s/o?

Verine is very easily distracted by you and tries to brush off his staring habits by saying he spaces out from time to time, often devolving into a coughing fit as he tries to defend himself (and eventually attracts your attention as you’re worried about him). Even if Verine isn’t staring lovingly at you you’re almost constantly on his mind, with him thinking about the most mundane of things that others would probably find incredibly boring. As long as you didn’t mind his staring he wouldn’t crack down on the habit but if it made you nervous, he’d do his best to keep it together around you.

ooh i’m very excited about this blog lmao. can you do 💋 for theo, noah, licht and kirr?- 🔥 anon

Kirr: 

💋 How do they kiss?

Kirr’s kisses can be aggressive but he always kisses with purpose, preferring to keep your intimate relationship in private so he can shower you with his full attention. You can tell he follows his instinct when kissing more than relying on any past experience but it works well with him, though he has the tendency to nip at your lips or push you against a hard nearby surface (to protect you from sneak attacks while you’re vulnerable, they’d have to go through him first).

Licht:

💋 How do they kiss?

Licht is, surprisingly or maybe not, a good kisser. He never uses too much tongue, not much slobber but not exactly chaste either. He adapts well to what you want out of the kiss and he’s always doing something else affectionate, cupping your cheek, stroking your hair, holding you tightly in his warm embrace. Everytime he pulls away he gives you this lovestruck look, telling you how your kisses always seem to put him under a spell (but he didn’t mind as long as it was you). 

Noah:  

💋 How do they kiss?

Noah’s kisses are gentle and sweet, sometimes you’re left wondering if he even kissed you with how lightly he tended to press his lips against yours. When he’s feeling passionate he has the tendency to be a bit rougher but you always feel as though he’s carefully holding himself back, not wanting to impose on you or make you feel like he’s trying to take control over you with the power of his kisses. 

Theo: 

💋 How do they kiss?

Theo’s kisses are chaste, always feeling too short and simple for your liking. He seems distressed at not satisfying you properly so he works on improving his skills, assuring his lips are never chapped and always delectable to make kissing more enjoyable. He doesn’t tend to kiss you in front of others unless he feels like your relationship is being scrutinized or threatened, using kissing as a way to make the other party feel so awkward they leave.
