warnings: none i think. reader has a brother.
Eddie parked his van outside of your parents’ house, turned off the engine and hopped out, walking up to the front door. He knocks against the hard wood door. He starts humming to the song he was blasting in his car as he waits for someone to open the door. Preferably you. But maybe you're getting ready. So your mum. Just not your step-dad. He is an ass-
He shakes his head, interrupting his train of thoughts, when he hears a scream from inside. He rips the door open, in panic and he hears another scream- your scream.
“Y/N!” he yells, following the sound of your voice, which leads him to the living room. He sprints inside- faster than he ever ran during PE- only to stop in his tracks as he almost gets whacked in the face with a plastic lightsaber.
“Give up you,evil sith lord. '' you yell marching towards your 9 year old little brother, with your blue saber raised high above your head.
“Never, jedi!” he yells back, just as enthusiastically as you, before spotting your boyfriend in the living room door, staring with his eyes wide open.
“Wha-” you follow your brother's gaze. “Eddie!”
You turn around to press a kiss on his cheek. “Hi, babe.”
“Hey…You uh.. you’re clearly not ready to go.”
“Well, I need to change,but I’ll be ready in 5..10 minutes.”
Your brother hits you in the thigh with the plastic weapon.
“You surrender?”
“NO!” you start hitting your saber against his, while looking at Eddie.”Are we late?”
“Nah..well not yet. But if we want to eat something before soundcheck, we should get going soon.”
You pretend to be choking as your brother raises his arm.
“You- you got..me…" collecting your strength you throw your lightsaber to Eddie." Avenge me Eddie Skywalker. "
He looks at you confused. You get up and bow.
" I died, now it's your turn to try and defeat the dark side, while I go and change." you turn to your brother." Don't go easy on him."
With that you ran upstairs leaving Eddie alone with your brother.
By the time you come back, Eddie is standing on the coffee table, monologuing with the toysaber in his hand.
“...you cannot win. You will never, because good will always rise against evil. Master Yoda will-”
“I killed your master Yoda!”
“No! You are lying! I can- I can still feel him through the force.”
“That’s a mind trick, young jedi. Your master is lost forever.”
“Nooo…” Eddie stumbles backward, steps off the coffee table, before falling to his knees.”No..”
“Join me, Skywalker. I can show you how to truly use the force. You will be stronger than you have ever imagined. You and I Skywalker. What do you say?”
“I..”Eddie looks up at your little brother from the floor, your brother extends his hand towards your boyfriend. Eddie slowly raises his left hand, seemingly to hold onto the hand in front of him, but in the last second he grabs his saber with his right hand and ‘cuts’ into your brother.
“Never! Die, sith, die!!”
You watch the scene unfold, your brother dramatically falls back on the couch, pretending to be dying and Eddie makes a little victory dance. You laugh, shaking your head.
“I’m ready… “
Eddie spins around only now noticing you. He whistles at the sight of you. You do a little pose.
“Wow.. you’re stunning.” he steps closer, placing his hands on each side of your hips. You smirk, leaning in for a kiss, when your brother starts fake puking. You sigh.
“Okay, okay..MUM! I’m heading out! BYEE” you yell before pulling Eddie with you outside.“Let’s go, rockstar.”

It was one of those days. You woke with your mind already clouded with some deep and dark thoughts and because Sodo had band practice all day, he wasn't there to comfort you either.
You tried to push through it, ignore your thoughts and just focus on your chores throughout the day but it was getting hard.
Your hand slipped while making your morning coffee, spilling the drink everywhere. And then you had to do twice the amount of work you normally would because one of the siblings got sick but of course Sister Imperator wanted everything to be done.
You didn't have time to eat lunch with the other's and when you finally did sit down to eat you realized you've lost your appetite.
You felt like crying. You just wanted Sodo. You wanted to be in his embrace, feel warm skin and be surrounded by his calming scent…
You didn't even realize where you were going until you entered the ghoul dents and was about to open the door to Sodo's room.
Stepping in you immediately feel a sense of calmness wash over you.
Sodo always keeps a hoodie under his pillow for colder nights, and right now that hoodie sounds exactly like what you need. You put on the clothing and hum as the soft fabric touches your skin.
You don’t feel like going back to your room where you can’t do anything but stare at the wall so you decide to roam the long halls of the abbey in hopes of finding someone to talk to .But it is not a particularly busy hour so the only company you have is the sound your shoes make against the stone floor. You feel like a ghost wandering, all alone..
“Y/N?”
You spun around to see Cumulus.
“Hah, I thought you were Sodo for a second, you smell of him.” she softly chuckles to herself. “Hey, is everything okay with you, hun?”
“I..sure. Hey, how come you are here? Thought you guys had band practice.”
“Oh yeah, the guys are still going over some guitar stuff with papa, but we are free. You want me to get Sodo?”
Yes.
“No, it’s fine, I am sure the guitar stuff is important.”
As you walk away Cumulus shakes her head. She can see through you and knows that you are not fine. She makes her way back to the practice room, quickly grabbing Sodo and explaining what was going on.
–
Sodo found you in your room sitting on the bed, still wearing his hoodie.
“Hey..” he pokes his head inside the room.”Can I come in?”
You only nod as an answer.
“How are you?” he crawls next to you on the bed. You turn to look into his eyes.
“Not so great..but better now that you are here.”
Sodo cups your face between his warm hands.
“You wanna talk about it?”
“Not really. Can we-can we just cuddle?”
“Of course, baby.”
He moves a bit back on the bed so he is leaning against the pillows and pulls you to his chest wrapping his arms and tail around you. You feel so much better now, every problem seems smaller now that Sodo is here.
“You know..” he speaks up after a few minutes of silence.”You look very cute in my jumper, baby.”
“Yeah I just.. I needed you and figured with you being busy this was the next best thing.”
“I will never be too busy for you y/n.” he kisses your forehead.”But, you are always welcome to wear my clothes, kay?”
“Hmm, okay.” you say slowly drifting to sleep on Sodo’s chest.
a/n: saw a banana scented shampoo the other day so i wrote this silly little thing for my favorite ghoul
word count: 289
You flopped down on your bed, with a sigh.
It was an eventful day at the abbey, your duties took longer than you expected, which is why you didn't have time to get lunch when everyone else was, thus not getting to eat with Aether. Which sucks, because ever since you guys started dating a few months ago, it became a habit that the two of you would sneak outside to the garden and eat together.
You laid down on your back, eyes staring at the ceiling.
It was nice to relax, but all you wanted was to cuddle up to your favorite ghoul and forget about today.
Just as you thought that, your door opened and Aether stepped inside. He looked just as tired as you.
"Hey Aeth." you wave your hand not having the energy to stand up and properly greet him. He waves back before laying across the bed next to you.
"Hey, darl-" he stops, sniffing the air beside you.
"What? I just showered, I can't be that smelly.."
Soon his face is buried in your hair, sniffing intesly.
"Oh, I have a new shampoo."
"Banana." he pulls away, looking you in the eye. You can't help but giggle.
“Yeah, it is banana scented. You like it?”
Aether inhales again, nodding his head.
“I kind of want to chew on your hair now, but..yes, it is a nice scent on you.”
Smiling, you snuggle closer to the ghoul and start running your fingers over the star like freckles that are sprinkled all across his skin.
He hums and tucks you closer to him before pulling the blanket over both of you.
“Good night..”
“..night, Aeth.” you mumbled before falling asleep, Aether following soon after.
i was wondering if you could write something that’ll be like reader is a ghoul or a sibling of the sin and they and mary are dating and reader introduces mary to the ghouls or something like that.
You woke up way before your alarm clock, practically buzzing with excitement. You carefully selected your outfit for the day, got ready in the bathroom and headed down to the ghoul dens.
The only ones up were Aether, Cirrus and Cumulus. They were quietly chatting on the couch in the living room era until you arrived.
"Good morning, guys!" you whisper yelled. Cumulus jumped up and ran towards you, wrapped you in her arms.
"Good morning, gorgeous! Oh my Lucifer, you look stunning, honey!"
You couldn't help but smile at the ghoulette's enthusiasm.
Cirrus smiled over her coffee, giving you a nod, silently saying that she agrees with Cumulus. You smile back at her and take a seat on the couch.
"You know.." Aether puts an arm around shoulder, his usual lazy-flirty smile on his face."You might just be the most breathtaking sibling of sin I know."
"Aw, well you might just be the hottest ghoul I know. Well..after the ghoulettes. Sorry." You add making him bark with laughter.
"That boyfriend of yours is very lucky, huh."
"Yeah.."
You lay your head on the quintessence ghoul, slowly getting lost in your thoughts, listening to the ghouls' conversation with one ear.
They became very important to you over your time here as a sibling. They were like family. And to be honest, you were quite nervous about them meeting Mary. You liked him, very, very much and you only hoped that the ghouls would too.
The time passed agonizingly slowly. The other ghouls started to get up too, one by one. First came Rain, rubbing the sleep away from his eyes, then Mountain, with what some would describe as a stoic expression but you could tell he was in a great mood. Sunshine came jumping in like a small fairey, greeting everyone with a quiet good morning and big smile. Dew’s first thing to do upon entering the room was to pick a quarrel with Aether, earning an eye roll from everyone.
The last one to join the little company was Swiss, in a red bathrobe and silk head wrap covering his hair.
“Morning, fuckers.”
“Morning? Swiss it’s like- Fuck, it is noon, dude!” you exclaim.
“So what, sweetie pie? It’s our day off, chill out.”
“They can’t-”Dew calls from across the room, his mouth full of coal. “Their little boyfriend is coming soon.”
“Uuu, right!! The boyfriend…"he purrs, slightly taping your shoulder before disappearing to the kitchen.
Mary wasn't nervous, he made his way towards the satanic church, softly humming to some song he heard somewhere on the way here. He however, was aware of how much the ghouls meant to you. Which, i don't want to say that it put pressure on him, but it did kind of.. make him want to be on his best behavior.
He was familiar with ghouls, and because he was a regular visitor at the abbey he probably crossed paths with the band ghouls too a few times, but he never really met them.
Getting through security ghouls was easy, they knew him by now and he spent a few minutes just joking around with them.
Maybe it was more than a few minutes because he heard his name being called, and seconds later he saw you rushing down the hall towards him, a couple of ghouls trailing after you.
You ran ahead, only stopping a step away from Mary.
"Hey..sorry to run here, i just got worried you might have been held up at the entrance but, all is well I see."
"Sorry, I didn't realize I've been here for that long." Mary sheepishly kisses your cheek.
"It's okay, uh-" you see the ghoulettes starting so you grab Mary's hand. "Come on, I wanna introduce you."
Mary waves bye, to the two ghouls at the door and lets you drag him over to the three figures.
"Girls, this is Mary. Mare, this is Sunshine, Cirrus and Cumulus."
Sunshine opts for a shy wave, Cirrus for a handshake and Cumulus..well, she pulls Mary into a bone crushing hug.
"So nice to finally meet you!! Oh the dark lord below, y/n talks about alllll the time, it's-"
"Okayy, not all the time." you chime in, making Mary smirk and Cumulus wave you off.
"No, Cumulus is right." Cirrus adds.
"Yeah.” Sunshine nods
“You really make them happy and that’s so nice to see…but if you hurt our little y/n, I will make sure you die slowly.”
“Cumulus! Oh Satanas, you can’t just say that and then threaten people!”
Mary shrugs,”It’s ‘kay, if I hurt you I’d want me dead too.
You look over at him, clearly touched by his words, but Mary just squeezes your hand, avoiding eye contact.
The ghoulettes, seemingly pleased with the answer, make their way back towards the den. Mary and you slowly follow after them.
"So uhm, that was very romantic of you, Mare. If I hurt you, I'd want me dead too." You repeat his words teasingly. He elbows you in the ribs (gently).
"Oh, shut up.." he mumbles shyly.
"I think the ghoulehs like you, tho." You give him a smile. He cocks his eyebrows.
“They do!”
As you arrived at the den, you gave his hand a squeeze before entering the living room.
You saw Rain lounging on the sofa, trying to hide his smile behind a book.
Just as you opened your mouth to ask about the others' absence, you hear a loud crash from the kitchenette that opened from this room.
"What are they doing?!"
Rain threw his book away, not being able to hold back his laughter any longer.
"Swiss and Dew had the idea that they'd cook something for you two." He stopped laughing and quickly introduced himself to Mary before sitting back down on the couch.
"Cook?? Those two? "
Someone yelled, probably Aether, and there was another crash.
You opened the door to the kitchen finding Aether, Dew, Swiss and Mountain in there.
Aether tried to put out the fire while yelling at the duo, while Mountain just stood there, amused.
"..you knew how important this day is for y/n and you guys fucked it up anyway. They could be here any minute and you set the kitchen on fire."
"We just wanted to make stake tho-"
"Shut the fuck up."
Dew and Swiss started pushing each other around.
"Guys! Stop!" you yell, grabbing their attention.
"Hey y/n!" they call in union.
"I am so sorry for the mess- I'm Aether. Nice to finally meet you." the ghoul extends his hand and Mary takes it.
"You too, dude. And don't worry about the mess, i 'ppreciate the effort. A bottle of beer would have done the trick though."
"Oi-" Dew grabs a six pack beer from under the counter." I think we'll get along."
The whole 'meeting everyone' could have gone better or smoother, but hey, it's Mary Goore and the Ghouls we are talking about. They seem to get along, no one killed anyone so..I'd consider this a win.
a/n: this is stupid and very short and im very tired :( (Absolutley not profreaded, i just barfed it into a google document and copied it here)
Once you were out of the lively crowd of drunk and soon to be drunk young adults Mary fished a pack of cigarettes out his tight jeans pocket.
“Can’t belive you introudused me as ‘the person I fuck’” you say leaning against the cold wall.
He lit his cigarette and rolled his eyes at you.
"Yo, like what am I supposed to say? Some sappy bullshit like 'they are the Sally to my Jack Skellington?' Nah, man, I don't think so."
"Ahh, I thought you were gonna say Romeo and Juliet."
"Now why the fuck would i say that? Stupid little kids weren't even in love, they 'known' each other for like three fucking days, the whole play is a goddamn parody of young 'love' and how stupid people are."
"Wow, okay Shakespeare, so you're saying we are in love?
"Of course we fucking are!" He exclaims, throwing his hands up. He tosses the cigarette butt, grabs your face and smashes your lips together with such force you stumble backwards and can't help but hold onto Mary's arm for support. He slips his tongue in your mouth and accidentally knocks his teeth against yours.
You both pull away gasping for air, desperately grasping one another.
"We fucking are.." he repeats, still out of breath. You reach up to caress his face, smudging his makeup, on his cheeks and onto your fingers, not that any of you care. You slowly kiss him, much more gently than he did before.
Mary wraps his arms around your waist pulling you closer to him.
Hi! Can I request headcanons of sharing a house with Mary?
Personally, I think he would be happy to have someone to come back to every day and it melts my heart😩
Hiii, thanks for requesting!❤️✨
oh yeah, you are absolutely right, he loves having someone to come home to every day
well, now he does, it was a bit weird in the beginning and took some time to get used to because he was never really a guy who stayed in one place for too long
but he loves living with you
he likes to live in an organized mess. it might look like chaos to you, but he knows exactly where his things are
that being said he does clean up around the house, he doesn't let you do all the housework because that just wouldn't be fair
he tries his best to cook sometimes too! But, in his opinion, nothing beats the feeling when he gets home and you are waiting for him with warm food. even if it's just take out or microwave pizza. the feeling that you're caring about him just makes his cold little heart warm up
it's rare that he gets up before you, but on occasions like that he likes to prepare some breakfast or coffee for you
he loves thrifting and diy-ing his clothes so i imagine he would try to do the same with anything that broken in the home. wouldn't call for a professional unless absolutely necessary
him bringing back random pieces of furniture that he found on the side of the street
"Uuum..Mary? What is that hideous thing in our living room?"
"Oh that's our new couch. You like it, babe?"
the couch is full of graffiti, looks like there's a rat family living inside it and you're quite sure that's mold on the pillows but hey, Mary really likes it
imagine celebrating halloween in your home with this weirdo (i wanna make a separate post about this today but i don't know if i will)
You stand at the ceremony, Dustin on your left, Wayne on your right. You can't help but held back your breath as you search through the crowd with a quick glance.
There's some music playing somewhere in the background but it's overruled by the excited chatter and the cracking of the bad microphone. The man stood on the stage, looking at the paper in his hand, opening his mouth, then he looked down and took a second glance at the paper before finally saying the name the three of you've been waiting for.
"Edward Munson!"
You see a mop of curly brown hair emerge from the rows. Eddie takes a few theatrical bows before running up the stage and snatching the diploma out of Principal Higgins' hand.
Dustin started giggling. "He really did it."
"He said he would. It's his year." you both smile at that just as Eddie raises his diploma up with both hands.
"Thank you Hawkins High! You were a great crowd. Hope you aaaalll rot in hell!" he lets go of the diploma with one hand just to 'flip the bird' to the principal with his poked out tongue. You hear the guys from Hellfire yelling, whistling and clapping so you and Dustin and Mike from across the room where he stands with his family, all join in. You see Wayne shaking his head, but he starts clapping too while laughing quietly. Eddie bows once more with a huge grin on his face. He does a weird dance before jumping off the stage and practically bouncing towards all of you.
"I'm proud of you, kid." Wayne says and Eddie lounges himself at his uncle, pulling him into a hug. The man seems taken back, but quickly wraps his arms tightly around Eddie.
"Thanks, Wayne."
You stare at them, a fond smile on your lips. Eddie hugs Dustin too, but not before messing up his curly hair and playfully punching his shoulder. He steps to you, last, cupping your face in his hands, his rings cold against your cheeks. He looks at you with such admiration.
''Thank you for sticking with me all the way through."
"Of course, baby. I love you."
Eddie captures your lips with his. He moves slowly, the kiss is gentle and loving. Dustin groans beside you and the two of you pull away giggling. You tuck a few wild strands of hair behind Eddie's ear.
You gaze into each other's eyes, the fact that you are in the crowded cafeteria of the school completely forgotten. All you can think about is how much you are in love with the man in front of you. And that you are forever lost in those big beautiful brown eyes of his.
And Eddie? He fears that one day his heart is just gonna explode from all the love he has for you. You, who didn’t care that he failed his senior year, twice, who didn’t care about the rumors about him, who was never afraid to be seen with the towns ‘freak’. Who loves him regardless of everything.
Wayne clears his throat, pulling you back to reality.
"So, kids, what do you say to a celebratory pizza, eh?"
Dustin starts cheering, before catching himself.
"Wait, does that apply to me oor.."
"Yeah, kid, it does apply to you too." says Eddie's uncle. In the meantime Jeff made his way over holding his diploma.
"We did it!"
"Of course we did, my man!"
"Can't believe you guys are leaving." Gareth says, popping out of nowhere with Andy by his aide.
"You will have to carry on the legacy with Henderson and Wheeler. And come on, we still have Corroded Coffin.Now let’s go, we are having pizzaaa.” he yells not giving a fuck if he draws all the attention to himself. He doesn’t give a fuck about these people. Not anymore. He is done with high school for good.
While walking outside, Eddie pulls you to his side.
“I just realized..I can’t tease you about dating a high schooler anymore.”
“Oh, poor you. I think you’ll figure out something new…Seriously though..I am so happy for you Eds. You should really be proud of yourself.”
“Ah.. give yourselves a little credit. I couldn't have done it without you guys. Without you. But yeah.. I- I am proud of myself. I did it. It took a while but.. I did it. And you know why?” he turns to you with a smirk. “Cause it’s my year, ‘86 baby!”
warnings: Mary being absolutely self-conscious, them being afraid of his feelings and their future with the reader
i used they/he pronouns for Mare
You woke up to the sound of someone shuffling around the apartment in the middle of the night, which wasn't anything new, you got used to Mary's weird sleeping hours so you just got up to pull them back to bed. You didn't expect to find them throwing everything of theirs into a duffle bag, rummaging for their special mug in the cabinet. "What are you doing?" you asked then, voice small and shaking.
"Go back to sleep." was all he said, he didn't even look at you. You didn't even know what was going on, let alone know what to say. They walked past you, grabbing their bag and started making his way towards the door.
And now, there you stood, your body frozen and you couldn't do anything but call after him.
"Come back-!" your scream came out groggy, sleep still clouding your mind. They stopped, only for a millisecond, but that was enough for you to come to your senses and lounge yourself after him. You got a hold of their arm and tugged on it.
"Mary, please…what's going on?"
You felt him tense at your touch, which sent a wave of pure cold pain through your body.
You saw them this morning and everything was fine. You had breakfast together, they even helped clean up afterwards, while headbanging to some death metal band. They kissed you before they left for band practice and work. What happened?
"Just let me go."
They tried to wiggle out of your hold, but you held onto him like your life depended on it.
"Why won't you just tell me what is going on?!"
"Nothing, I'm leaving." they turned to you, face stoic, no trace of any kind of emotion. "Let me go."
"You're scaring me."
"Good. Finally you've come to your senses. Now, let go of me."
Hot tears rolled down your cheeks and you saw Mary turning their face away from you.
"No…"you breathed out."No, Mary, love, please, come on we can talk about this. O-or if you don't feel like talking we can just cuddle or sit in silence, just please, please…please-"
"Stop." they said, eyes closed. "You're better than this, don't beg for someone."
"I'm not begging for someone! I am trying to talk to you!"
"Well don't! You deserve way better than-" they scoffed and threw their hands up gesturing to himself. "-me."
"Stop that! Stop telling me what I do and don't deserve. Fuck that Mary, i do not care when you are the one i need! I love you Mary, for fucks sake."
"You will never have a happy life next to me! I am not fucking built for that and you know it!"
"But I am happy with you Mary, happier than I ever imagined. You keep telling me how you're 'not built for this'. Newsflash Mary, that is fucking bullshit! You're just afraid of losing everything. So when things get too happy, too domestic, too serious- you bolt. Well, you can't fucking do that to me, because I want you to be happy. I want to be happy with you."
"But you won't!" he shouted. " I don't ever want to get married or move to the suburbs and have kids. You might say you're okay with that now, but a few years from now you will regret staying with me and I won't be able to fucking deal with that."
"So you are just leaving."
"It's better off like this." he looks at you with sad eyes. "Besides-"
"No. Please stop trying to convince me why this is okay. I know you're hurting and I know you don't feel like you deserve a good life. But you are-"you let go of their arm and held their hand, locking your fingers with their motionless ones."I know you are doing this out of love, but don't make decisions for me. You don't know if I am willing to give up marriage and all that, if it means having you. Which I am-"
"Don't say stuff you don't mean."
"But I do mean it!" You placed one hand on their chest, feeling their heart beating.
"Please?" you look up at Mary, their face no longer emotionless, they're clearly thorned, not knowing to give in or run away.
"Please, just think this through. Wait until the morning, at least. We can talk in the daylight."
"I can't-" he shaked his head. "If I…I- fuck…"
"I love you." you said, your hand reaching to touch Mary's face. They grabbed your hand and pressed a kiss on it. With a smile you kissed them. You could feel their tears running down your cheeks. He held onto you tightly as you kissed.
"I love you too." they whispered, pulling away. You smiled at him fondly. You knew Mary loved you, they showed it every day, he just wasn't really vocal about it, so to hear these words from them meant a lot.
The lighting was dim, however you saw the look on his face. You opened your mouth to object, to plead , to beg for him but you saw the determined look on their face.
"Bye, y/n"
And just like that you were standing alone in your shared apartment, which you didn't share with him anymore. There was no sign of anyone else living there besides you.
And just like that you were alone. Mary disappeared from your life just as fast as he entered it all those months ago.
