It was Tuesday night, which meant you had the closing shift at the arcade tonight.
You leaned against the counter, it wasn’t busy thankfully, since it was a school night (also because everyone was afraid to come to the arcade because of your reputation). You soaked up the quietness of the arcade, only the light radio station could be heard in the background.
That’s before a group of teens, maybe around your age, walked in. They were laughing with each other and looking around, they’ve been here before, you could tell by the way they flung themselves to an arcade game, like they knew the floor plan of this place like the palm of their hand.
Time passed as you stayed behind the counter, minding your business, messing around with the radio stations or rearranging the gifts in the gift section as the teens played around for a bit.
Suddenly, you could hear whispers along the lines of:
“No you go!”
“She’s scary”
“I’m not going either”
“Fine! I’ll go then.”
before a brown curly haired boy approached you with a handful of tickets in his hand. He wore a cap and probably had the sweetest eyes ever.
“Hey.” He said, with a slight smile.
“Can I help you?” You leaned on the counter.
“You..yeah..i…” He stuttered a bit, his gaze falling to your styled hair, dark makeup, down to your uniform, you were basically a punk goddess in his eyes, his eyes quickly scurried at the tickets in his hand. “I-I wanna redeem these!” He lent out his hand to give you the tickets
“Sure.” You grab them and start redeeming them. You looked up at him from time to time, admiring how his fingers tapped on the counter while he was waiting, how his eyes looked around the gift shelves, already eyeing something.
“Got your eye on something?” You smile, hidden by your hair as you look down on the tickets.
“Yeah. I don’t know if i have enough points for it though.”
“What is it?” You look up.
“The Panthro action figure.”
A smile meets your face “You know Thundercats?”
His eyes widened like if you had just assumed something blasphemous of him “I know Thundercats?! I love Thundercats!” An even bigger smile met his lips.
“Really?” You look straight at him, the tickets forgotten on the counter. “That action figure has been on the shelves since I started working here a couple months ago, no one ever got it. I was considering taking it home with me.” You joke around
“People would leave behind a gem like that?!” The curly head said in disbelief.
“I know!” You finished counting his tickets, a melancholic look met your face “Ah..looks like you’re 50 points short for the action figure..”
The boy looks disappointed but accepts his fate “Ah bummer. Well, it’s okay, means you can take it home with you”
You look at him, then back at the figure. You could tell he really wanted that action figure.
“..i can make a little change of price for you.” You smile, grabbing the Panthro action figure from the shelf and give it to him.
“Really?!” He looks like he’s a kid in a candy store, his eyes glow and he smiles again.
“Yeah, it’s yours.” You nod, he looks so pretty when he’s happy
“You’re the best, I love you!” He blurts out, realizing what he had just said, a slight redness crawls up his face and neck from the embarrassment. “I’m sorry, that—that was weird— I mean, I appreciate it.”
“It’s fine..” You trail off, asking for his name.
“Dustin, Dustin Henderson.”
“Nice to meet you Dustin.” You tell him your name
“That’s real pretty, it fits you.” He leans his chin on the top of the toy box, looking at you.
You could feel your ears and cheeks heating up before one of his friends called his name.
Dustin’s head snapped up and looked at his group of friends that was waiting for him at the door of the arcade “Ah, I gotta go, it was nice meeting you though.”
“Nice meeting you too.” You told the cute boy,
After that night, Dustin was hanging out with you every chance he could; before and after your shifts, during your break. You snuck him gifts from the gift shop and he snuck you little patches he’d find around or make himself you could add to your jean jacket.
One day, he finally mustered up enough courage to invite you to his house on a weekend. You played card games, messed around with the radio, he explained to you the rules of DnD, and obviously, you watched Thundercats and other cartoons you liked together.
“Hey you have that displayed!” You look up at the Panthro action figure that sat on his shelf.
“Of course I do.” He said shutting off his TV. “Y’know you’re not what I thought you’d be..”
“Mean and scary?” You smirk, leaning back on his soft bed. Dustin reluctantly nodded, almost afraid of offending you.
“People like to say that about people they don’t understand.” You explain.
“I get that.” He sat on the floor, in front of you. “There are some rumors going around Hawkins about you being..violent, rude.”
You nod, looking at the ceiling “I’ve heard ‘em.” A moment passes “Am I?”
“Huh?”
“Am I violent and rude?” You look at Dustin
He called you by your name “You’re.. the nicest person I know. You literally pet every stray you see on the street and people say you eat them!” That joke pulled a laugh out of you, he looked at you adoringly, but you just didn’t notice
“They should really give you a chance, you’re a great person.” Dustin praised once you stopped laughing
“Well some fools enjoy living in ignorance, and just go off based on ideas, judging a book from its cover.”
“I was afraid of you at first” Dustin admitted reluctantly
“Yeah well, I could tell by the look in your eyes. I’m kinda used to it.” You sat up on the bed. “Thank you for…giving me a chance.” You smile at him
“Thank you for giving me the Panthro action figure, which, by the way, is my most prized possession.” You giggle at his silliness.
Another moment passes “I love the Ghostbusters patch you gave me.”
“I made it, the paint work is a little cheap—“
You interrupt him “It’s perfect because it’s made by you.”
Dustin looked at you, his face turning a hot shade of red. “Ah..” He looked to the side “I mean— aah..god..”
He stumbled over his words, making you giggle. You loved flustering him up like this.
You slide down from the bed and onto the floor in front of him “Dustin..” You say with a big smile you couldn’t help but display.
He kept on muttering nonsense and looking away, his face crimson red.
You grab his face and turn it towards you, holding his burning cheeks. “I can’t hear you, could you speak up?”
“Kiss me.” He mumbles after a long string of inaudible words, just loud enough for you to hear him.
You tilt your head with a laugh of disbelief “Kiss you?”
“Yeah. Yeah. I-I want you to kiss me, if you want of course...” He nods.
“I want to” You lean closer to his face, before slowly, but definitely, closing the distance between your faces.
The kiss was messy but pure, a fire lit up inside you and you felt like your souls connected in that moment, your hearts beating one rhythm.
For a minute or two, you both just sit there, kissing like two thirteen year olds in their first relationship, holding eachother in your arms and smiling against one another’s lips.
AKAASHI loves his Himegyaru!girlfriend. He adores how you dress up every day in these gorgeous clothes, place your honey-blonde wig on and put your light brown contacts in (even if you always whine, because the process of putting them in is stressful). Although Akaashi himself isn’t one to stand in the spotlight, he loves it when strangers compliment you and how you glow under their attention. You truly are a princess!
KUROO adores his Emo!girlfriend. He loves how you match his extravagant hairstyle with your black side part, thick eyeliner and piercings. Kuroo appreciates your dedication to ‘MCR’ and ‘Fall out boy’, although he finds your obsession with the members questionable. He loves how you’re just yourself and don’t let anyone tell you what to wear, what to like or who to be!
SUNA loves his Grunge!girlfriend. You match him in the best way possible; your style is similar, so you can even steal some stuff from him and still look like yourself. He loves watching you experiment with hairstyles and accessories and you love watching him skate at 3 am. You share the hatred for fast fashion and share the love for weed :)
OSAMU fell so quickly for his Sweet-Lolita!girlfriend. Your cute features, the way you hold yourself and (obviously) the way you dress, drew him in immediately. He adores the many bows, accessories and puffy blouses you own. He could spend his entire day watching you do your makeup, make cute selfies or decorate your room with cute things. He works very hard to buy you everything you need whether it’s dresses, accessories, stockings, shoes or plushies. Osamu will do everything for you, that’s for sure!
KYOTANI worships his Tsuyome!girlfriend. You two are quite alike, although you’re way more- well, likable. Everyone you meet is in love with your outfits, the wigs and your whole aesthetic, while Kyotani can’t stand it. Not your looks or that you’re Tsuyome, God no! But he hates the attention and compliments you get, especially when they’re from other men. He can’t help it, he’s a jealous and possessive guy! Kyotani loves the way you’re so unapologetically yourself. He feels truly loved and seen in your presence, since he has a just as strong personality.
USHIJIMA is so in love his Romantic-Goth!girlfriend. When he has the time, he loves spending his morning by watching you do your makeup with the smokey eyes, dark lips and eyeliner. When he doesn’t, he simply presses a soft kiss to your lips before heading out to training. He loves it when you indulge in your interests and tell him all about them; reading poetry, watching old romance movies or listening to ‘This Mortal Coil’ or ‘Friends of Alice Ivy’.

Omg hiii!!! I’m loving what Saja boys hcs and I loved the pop mart hc u wrote!! (*^▽^*)
What would the saja babes be with an alt/goth gn!s/o? Their demon performance literally sparked this request (0///0)
Oh stop, you are too kind. Thank you so much! And thank you for sending in this request! I hope that you enjoy<3 Had to listen to Your Idol on repeat and don’t regret it. They can have my soul. I’m sure if I wore the goth reader all that well but I hope it's still good!
Jinu:
Jinu is a sucker for your gothic style. Considering he is a demon, black and deep purple are his colors.
Seeing you wear those very same colors made both his human side and demon side preen with happiness
Jinu had appeared as his demon one night in your shared apartment and you saw him, in the middle of putting your make-up on.
You both had a seriously long talk that night
You didn’t understand why he would hide his demon side from you but the fear that filled him when he told you that he believed you would leave him made your heart break.
You took his hand in yours and pressed it to your chest, just over your heart.
“You are the only one that makes my heart race like I’m wearing pastel colors and flowers in my hair. Just like when you performed Soda Pop.” You giggled as the tips of his ears turned red.
When you and Jinu went on dates, he wore the pastel colors, you wore the black, a 180 to his demon persona.
You designed your nails after his actual claws and Jinu could feel his heart racing like he had been running a marathon.
Scratch his head when the both of you are lazing around. Specifically in his demon form because he will purr.
His demon will practically beg for back scratches when the two of you are lounging in the dorm room watching tv.
His demon form will clasp your hands together and hold them tightly when he feels overwhelmed.
You show off all your black clothing and make-up on different nights when he is feeling down, hoping that will cheer him up. (It does. He’s a sucker for you.)
Abby Saja:
He is all about the bright colors. He is constantly wearing the bright blues and greens and pinks while you wear only black. You did occasionally wear a dark red whether it be contacts or a belt to hold your pants up.
You fell for Abby Saja at a concert and when he saw you, he fell harder. Literally, he fell off the stage and landed at your feet, dust slowly settling as he rubbed his head and took your offered hand, worry in your eyes.
From that moment, he knew he needed you by his side. He asked the security to take you back to their waiting room so he could talk to you and possibly get your name.
Dating a demon for 3 years is still pretty new to you but you wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Abby Saja always asks for head rubs when he comes back from a rather long concert or a long tour that has finally ended.
Even in his demon form, he is gentle when he holds you. He refuses to hurt the person that actually likes his demon and will ask him to show his demon randomly.
The moment he stepped into the apartment, he saw you sitting on the couch in one of his black t-shirts and black basketball shorts. His demon appeared and he dramatically fell onto your lap.
He wrapped his arms around your waist and buried his face in your stomach as he closed his eyes and breathed in your scent.
“Long day?” You asked, immediately removing the black hat and running your fingers through his hair, occasionally screeching at his scalp.
He shivered but nodded his head. “The longest day I have ever had. Please don’t make me go back and do it again.” He would whisper but you knew he loved it more than anything.
Mystery Saja:
He loves your goth style. He even asked you if you would be willing to dress him up the same way, his demon getting excited to try it out.
Mystery had been getting ready for a concert when he saw you putting the make-up on, your eyes trained on the lines you were making on your eyes.
He stopped, jaw dropped as he watched you.
“You should apply as our makeup artist. You are talented with that.” He said, walking into the bathroom and stood behind you, his hands on your shoulders as he watched you.
You giggled and finished the last of the make up before turning around and wrapping your arms around his waist and laying the side of your face against his stomach.
“Gotta make myself look good for my boyfriend's concert. Where would the fun be if I didn’t show up in the colors that matched your demon side?” You asked, watching as his human form slipped away and his demon form appeared.
You left an hour after he had left, knowing that was when you would be let into the stadium.
You watched him and his group with a soft smile, your heart pounding as he danced his heart out.
When he caught sight of you, you smiled and waved watching as his whole face lit up.
The second the concert was over, you made your way to their dressing room but before you could even open the door, Mystery opened the door and pulled you into his chest, nuzzling his face into your neck. “You were amazing, my love.” You whispered.
Romance Saja:
Even in his demon form, he refused to take your soul. The way you looked dressed in all black, chains falling around your hip and the black makeup around your eyes made him feel fuzzy.
Romance will flirt with you non stop when you are getting your clothes on and makeup on.
When they were on stage in their demon forms, Romance refused to use his voice to control you. He watched you from the stage as you jumped up and down, ignoring the other fans around you.
His chest swelled with pride as you danced along to the song.
When the two of you are out shopping for new clothes to add to your closest, he does his best to learn the gothic style and does his best when it comes to choosing something you want.
At one point, Romance asked if you would be willing to put the same eye makeup on him and you, in a giddy excitement, immediately sat him on the chair in the bathroom as you got to work.
When you two were getting ready for a date, Romance dressed in more lighter reds and pinks, pulling his hair back into a half bun to keep it out of his face while you pulled on a oversized black t-shirt, slipped into black cargo pants, clipping a few chains on the right side, and pulled on socks and combat boots.
Romance wrapped his arms around your neck as you applied the last of your makeup, his eyes shining when you turned to face him.
He will also sit and paint your nails black while he talks to you about his demon side, giving you all the details and such about it before pink smoke surrounds him and his demon is sitting in front of you.
You can only stare at him mesmerized as he finishes painting your nails. Yes you have seen the demon before but from a distance. Having him in his demon form in front of you makes your heart thud against your chest like it has never done before.
You are also taller than Romance, and built a little more than him so Romance has a thing for you standing behind him when fans are talking to him.
Romance, when he is tired and you don’t have your full outfit on, will lay on your chest and sleep.
Romance will actively show you off in his instagram posts, holding your hand or pressing a kiss to the back of your hand.
Baby Saja:
Baby Saja will walk around you, studding the clothing that you decided to wear on your date.
His hands would graze the chain that sat on your hip, trace over the chain around your neck before taking you hand in his, looking up at you and smiling softly.
He will never admit it but the way you dress in all dark clothes makes him happy. His demon likes the darker colors. It's easier on his eyes.
When he performed Your Idol, he could see you copying all his moves, mouthing all his words all while staring directly at him.
You are slightly stronger than him when in human form so he will ask you for piggyback rides, mainly so he can nuzzle into your neck better.
When he comes home after having to act like a popstar, he just collapses into your chest, while you are laying on the couch, scrolling through your phone.
His demon appears as he rests his chin against your chest, silently begging for your attention.
When you finally look at him, he blushes and buries his face in your chest, making you chuckle and wrap your arms around him.
He will insist on doing your makeup when you don’t feel like doing it yourself, carefully do your hair in a half bun leaving half your shoulder length hair down so he can play with it.
Because of your gothic style, he will beg the rest of the group to let you be their manager, knowing that you have seen their demons and don’t care one bit.
Your black nails are just long enough that he will ask you to scratch at his head when he is extremely tired and will actually fall asleep against your chest when you do so.
Autistic Reader and their overstimulating bright ass room that they LOVE.
All done by themselves, btw. They took hours to perfectly paint the room, watched through tutorials to properly tape the outlets into safety. Its a soft, calming pink on its own, but the posters covering it after are diabolical.
Printed papers, self-bought pictures, all taped nicely onto the walls before shelves are pushed in front of them and filled with plushies and figurines. There's a desk littered with an expensive set-up and trinkets, as well.
The LEDS are fucking blinding btw if you even care.
The first time the boys come over, they find your entire house decorated up with shiny furniture, organized furry rugs, etc.
Simon looks overstimulated immediately, awkwardly sitting on the couch until you told him there's a blank room specifically for overstimulation and guide him. He seems happy to watch TV there, at least.
Kyle and Johnny have a blast, poking at everything and asking you how much your figurines were. When you tell them, they nearly choke and die.
"This is what you spend your money on?" Price questions, but without any bite. He settles easily in the decked out home, looking obscenely out of place yet also at home. Likely for being surrounded by his teammates and feeling trusted enough to be in one of their homes. He looks like a father more than a captain.
You later dress him up in your clip ons and headbands while he sits there gruffly, not even bating an eye to his sergeants taking photos. He's extremely happy to be your Captain.
brief summary: armin finally decides its time to introduce you to his friends, and the perfect occasion is the party eren invited him to. the party is the perfect occasion for other, far more important, matters.
what to expect: alt and very nerdy reader, equally nerdy armin, mutual pinning, physical touch, lots of tension, touching kissing, things escalating but not to THAT point
your sword's note: my princesses, it is now time 🙏🏻. all past and future parts of this au series available in my mistresslist, also sorry for the delay, life has been bizarre
As some kind of miracle, both you and Armin’s friends, independently of course, finally convinced him to introduce you to each other. He agreed to attend a party (shocker) and accepted passing on the invitation to you as his friends had always requested (bigger shocker).
“I don’t know what to wear!” You cried out going back and forth in your dorm, “They will think I am weird!!”
“I promise they won’t…”He said knowing that his friends would almost instantly love you. He was starting to regret the whole thing because he had a feeling that someone would tell you every detail about his feelings; he was biting down on his lip piercing like every time he was nervous now, he used to bite the skin off his lips but after getting his lip pierced he had acquired the new habit. “Anything you choose will be a good option, they are still impressed by insects so that is not a problem.”
You nodded and selected some pieces of clothing to then try them on, while Armin stood outside of course. When you were done, he walked back in and you applied some makeup and put some jewelry on, the makeup that you would practice, goth, vkei or straight up clown makeup was too much, so you decided to go for a simple look.
Finally you both walked out of your dorm, the contrast between you and Armin was impacting, though he already had gotten another pair of earlobe piercings and his vertical labret shined in his lips, he dressed the same as always, gray dress pants and a navy sweater over a white button up on comparison to your vintage bondage pants and corset jacket set.
“Are you sure I don’t look like an abomination? You look like Mr. Peabody if he was human and I am this...bizarre entity.”
“I don’t know if I should be honored or disgraced by that comparison.” He chuckled walking besides you to the house of the party. “It doesn’t really matter, the fashion student here is you, and apart of Mikasa, the rest of them dress relatively average.”
If there was something Armin loved about you, was your style and fashion sense, it was otherworldly for him, everything, your confidence and bravery to wear stuff that people normally don’t and that they judge, your ability to make any outfit work, that kin eye you had to elevate any look… he was a little envious of that ability since he started hanging out with you and diving into more alternative music and culture in general; he was still trying to build courage to ask you for help with renovating his closet.
“Your hand looks sad, let me just…” Taking of some of your rings off you mentioned before placing them in his fingers. He wore the silver ring you had given him on the day you two first hung out every single day, but apart from that he didn't wear any sort of necklaces or bracelets.
“I wish I had gotten the armor ring.” He joked knowing that it didn't fit him.
Walking into the party was a little awkward as Armin had insisted to arrive early, technically before it even started, so there was only a few people. When you two walked in everyone stayed silent and turned around almost breaking their necks to take a glance at the millenary event: Armin with a girl.
“Umm, hi.” You introduced yourself briefly and everyone waved.
“Well Hello!” Soon a tall guy jumped to greet both of you. “My name is Jean I am practically Armin’s twin, nice to finally meet you.”
“This… this is beautiful!” Connie said about the whole scene.
Soon faces started matching names, Armin gave a seriously scary look to everyone and he sat down quietly by Mikasa’s side so you sat besides him. You knew Mikasa was Mikasa because she matched the description Armin gave of her perfectly and you were soon complimenting her v-shaped bangs and she smiled and complimented you back; knowing that Mikasa wouldn’t say any unnecessary comments, Armin felt instantly calmer.
"The alc is here!” Eren celebrated walking into the house, showing two bottles, one in each hand as trophy’s.
“What if we actually got drunk?” You asked Armin knowing that neither of you had ever been genuinely drunk and he seemed hesitant for a second but ended up agreeing.
“I just hope I don’t do anything embarrassing.”
“He will for sure do sum embarrassing shit!” Eren laughed launching at the sofa. "Did you not invite Tiffany?"
"No she is busy studying..." You said turning to take a glance at Armin whose eyes were wide open.
Inevitably people started walking in and the real party started. Loud music and the so called alc that Eren and Sasha brought being passed around in clichey red cups.
“What is this again?” Armin asked yelling, pointing at his cup for a second.
“Malibu rum.” Eren answered.
You took a sip of the tasty liquor and stayed seating, there were some people dancing already but you and Armin just looked at each other laughing.
“How was your piercing been?” You asked seeing that he kept biting on it.
“It’s almost healed but I can’t stop playing with it.” He admitted defeated. “So what are we supposed to do here?”
“I would like to know… We are so smart and still can’t figure it out!” You exclaimed throwing your arm over his shoulder and pulling him a little closer to hug him sideways.
“I think I wanna dye my hair… I’ve been too corrupted. If me from a year ago saw me now, he’d have a heart attack.”
“For sure, from how cute you are.” You smiled and he looked away embarrassed. Since you both didn’t know what else to do, you started sipping slowly from the cup and since Eren made sure to fill it up every time he noticed, you two were already somewhat tipsy. “I will dye your hair, but not all of it.”
“Can I have a…uhm, vkei cut?” He asked and you nodded, “And some dye.”
“Do you think we are becoming stupid?” You asked out of nowhere and seeing him nodding lit your lips in laughter. Then, absorbed by the influence of the alcohol, you decided to stand up and extend your hand to ask him up too. He took a good while denying but eventually stood up lightly holding on to your hand, asking why you were making him stand up. “Let’s take a breath outside.”
You held his hand across the people jumping around and reached the door, there were some people smoking and chatting but you stood away from them and simply leaned on the wall.
“Have you read a fanfic about a party and wished you were there but now that we are in a party it’s kinda dumb?”
“What makes you think I read fan fiction?” Armin asked back to your question laughing; he was organizing his hair and his concentrated face made him look really attractive. “I really don’t mind it here if I can just be with you.”
“Oh really?” You tried to ask after the liquid in your mouth escaped to your throat making you cough for air, he nodded in a very serious manner.
“Let’s stay for a little and then leave… we can read… or watch a movie or have our own party.”
“You’re so unhinged when you’re drunk.” You laughed and he immediately argued that he wasn’t drunk.
Eventually you went back to the house, and after seating in the same spot and talking with Armin while Eren kept refilling your cups for a good while, you both agreed to leave and spend your time in a place you two felt more comfortable in.
“Mikasa said she left my jacket upstairs, I’ll go get it.” You said after coming back from talking with her, Armin said he’d go with you and you agreed. You immediately grabbed his hand to not get lost from each other and went upstairs. Mikasa had said she left the jacket in the last room of the corridor. People were doing a line to go to the bathroom and trying to get in a room, so when one of the doors opened someone ran to go in and pushed you. Luckily Armin was still holding your hand and prevented you from falling.
“Oh God I could’ve fallen…” You stayed still for a moment and in your intoxicated state decided that it was best to thank Armin by hugging him. “Thanks ‘Min.”
He was oddly not so shy to receive the hug and corresponded by hugging you back. He was so drunk and he felt oddly decided about life so all timidity had vanished from his nervous system.
“You don’t need to thank me, how am I going to let you fall right in front of me?” He mentioned still clinging to his cup in one hand while with the other one he held onto the entirety of your waist, whispering in your ear just to make sure that you could listen regardless of how loud the music was.
“Armin shut up…” You moved away shyly.
“So when I do hug you back you don’t like it?” He held somewhat firmly to you. “Do you not like me back?”
“What…?” Your heart dropped when hearing his words. “What do you mean?”
“Answer my question first.” He demanded, in a serious manner. His hair was sticking to his forehead and his cologne impregnating onto your clothes too, his eyebrows were furrowed over his eyes and his mouth still had the bittersweet taste of the rum. He was gone. “Why don’t you like me back?”
“Armin…” you felt slightly suffocated by his arm holding you, but his words reverberated in your brain. Since the moment you saw him in class you liked him, since he was shy to talk, since he met you in the library, since the beginning you had liked him. “I do like you.”
His eyes slowly opened when the realization hit, almost enough to sober him up for a whole second.
“What…?” It was him now asking, his heart about to kill him.
“I don’t know where you got that idea of me not liking you, but I do, I like you.”
He stayed silent for a good time, the grip of his arm on your waist softening up and his eyes locked in yours because if he looked away once he wouldn’t be able to look back at you.
“I’m sorry… I already ruined it.” He finally averted his gaze to look at the floor.
“Armin it’s okay, you didn’t ruin anything.” Though you tried to make him look back at you, he refused to, so you lifted your hands from his neck to his face to make him look at you. “I won’t stop liking you just because you get silly.”
He kept silent so you decided to give up everything and approach him softly to kiss him. A soft and quick peck.
“I’ve been liking you since I saw you.” You confessed, his lips remained slightly opened and his intense eyes went back to yours, “I’ve been about to kiss you many times before but I just wasn’t brave enough... but I really, really, like you."
The door of the room in the back suddenly opened and since you saw some girl walking to get in, you grabbed Armin's hand and ran towards the room. Once inside you closed the door and looked at him. “So like you back, you said?”
His overall mood seemed enhanced, but he was as embarrassed as he could be.
“I like you a lot… but thought I had no chance.”
“Sometimes you forget to charge your brain.” You close the distance by walking to him, he closes his eyes as to avoid looking at you so you hung your hands on his neck. “I had a feeling you liked me but didn’t know how to act with this situation… I should have confessed…”
“Do you really like me?” He asked opening his eyes and you softly squeezed his cheek.
“Really!? How could I not? You are the smartest person I know, you have a wonderful personality, you are insanely attractive and cute…” You held his face now and forced him to look at you. You let your fingers caress his soft skin, his eyes were focused on your face, all over, analyzing every feature of yours like he had done a million times before, memorizing the exact shape of your lips because he couldn’t look away from them… how had he felt them, how dare he, he had been blessed… but he already started to forget the feeling.
“You are just drunk.”
“I am drunk but that is unrelated.” You said serious. “Ask me tomorrow. Ask me any day. I don’t know why you’re doubting me.”
“I’m not doubting you… I just don’t get it.” Armin kept talking bout you were quick to shush him.
“I don’t wanna hear it.” You said firmly and he nodded almost obediently. “This is what will happen. I take my jacket and sit in the bed for a minute to catch my breath, if you want to continue denying that I like you, you can leave. If you accept that I like you without questioning my reasons, you can sit besides me and give me a kiss back.”
After hearing the options, it seemed clear that he had made his choice, yet it took him some long seconds of finding his balance standing up and then sitting besides you.
"There." He softly kissed your cheek, clearly too embarrassed to give you a real kiss and you cursed not having specified that the kiss should have been on the lips. "I can't yet bring myself to dare kiss you, I hope that suffices."
"You little mischievous leprechaun." You scolded him and he couldn't help but laugh at the odd wording of your insult. "It does not really suffice."
He looked at you clearly thinking of what to do but you were quick to grab his hand and kiss him again.
You had never talked about romantic stuff, both of you too embarrassed to ever bring it up, but from kissing him you noticed his relative lack of experience: he didn't move his lips much and simply held your hand.
"Am I hurting your lip baby?" You asked carefully brushing a strand of his hair behind his ear and he denied, shockwaves making him shiver at the way you called him; he sighed strongly as to calm down his nerves. He gently passed his tongue across his piercing as to move it back to the place he liked it. You went back to kissing him and now it seemed he had picked up what you had done before, his lips were gently sucking on your bottom lip and his free hand was placed gently on your cheek while the other one still held onto yours. Both of you seemed eager to finally kiss after months of suffering and hiding your feelings, the warm alcohol running through your veins turned you bold.
"You picked that up already?" You asked pulling away after finally noticing that he had learned from the short kiss you had given him before. He nodded.
"You kissed me like that and it felt good, so I replicated it."
"I should be scared of you." You laughed nervously.
"I may be inexperienced but I am not dumb." His statement sent shivers down your spine. You stopped for a moment to look at his eyes that were consumed in determination like you had never seen them.
"You can't possibly win..." You muttered and he laughed saying that it was not about winning but you gently pushed his back towards the mattress, his expression changing fast at the sudden movement. He blinked once and when he opened his eyes you had shifted from his side to his lap. He gave a simple look at his lap, your knees to each side of his hips and your weight resting on him. He looked up and saw your gaze, on him like a predator, his pupils expanded. He quite did not know you were this type of lover, it looked like it was not just because you were drunk.
"You are much of a fast learner," You complained tying up your hair as to take the long strands out of your face. "If I am not careful with you, soon you will have me subdued." You pointed at him and he bit your finger. You both erupted in laughter as you approached him to kiss again. His eyes expectant of your movements, so you gave him a loud kiss in the cheek before going back to his lips that were impatient to have yours again. He made sure to let you know that he had missed them, tangling his arms around your neck and interlocking his lips on yours in a wet kiss. After pulling away a few inches to breath, you switched to encage his bottom lip now and he corresponded with your upper, gently licking your lip before opening his eyes daring. You caught the glimpse of his gaze and reciprocated the daring look before opening your mouth and meeting his tongue with yours.
While he got lost in the moment, tasting your mouth and exploring cautiously, a thought creeped in the back of his head; he knew he was acting oddly and realized that he was in fact drunk. Something in him ought to decelerate the moment but he lost his determination when your lips gently moved from his lips to his neck and your hand started trailing down his jawline, to his chest and to the waistband of his pants.
The door then opened abruptly and though your first instinct was to yell that the room was occupied, when you and Armin turned to look at the door, you saw Mikasa and a disheveled Eren almost holding tears, both in shock at finding his friend finally getting some action.
Both you and Armin immediately sat straight and he moved you from his lap back to the bed.
"What happened?" You attempted to say.
"Eren has separation anxiety." Mikasa rolled her eyes as Eren clung to her. "He refused to go home without finding him first."
You looked at Armin, who seemed almost angry. You both got up as if you had agreed mentally and walked towards the door.
"I didn't know though," The look in Eren faced changed immediately from sorrowful to a malicious grin.
"Whatever." Armin pushed his friend out of the way.

FIRST MEETING :
He was..surprised to see you, walking through the Daily Planet offices. It had to be said that most of the staff were looking at you too, with eyes that mixed curiosity with incomprehension – because there are always idiots –. You stood out from the crowd, and Clark could only see it with the look of a deer caught in the headlights of car.
He may have been Superman, but at first he was just a little guy who grew up on a farm in the middle of fields. His parents were great, but at school he had seen all too well how cruel kids could be to each other. So it was this idea that pushed him to talk to you for the first time, yet another proof of his constant heroism.
“Hey! Are you new here? Oh, and I love your style, by the way,” were his first words to you, though due to his stress-induced awkwardness, it sounded more like this: “H-hey ! You were huh, I mean are you new here ? Oh and..by the way, I euh really love how you look”.
You immediately fell for his dimpled smile, how could you not?
FIRST STEPS OF THE RELATIONSHIP :
Clark was not subtle at all, even though he believed he was.
He always brought you a cold drink before everyone else, greeted you at eight in the morning with his voice going a little too high, held all the doors for you – even the fridge one – during the day, and so on.
Of course, he hoped you would be receptive to him, that you liked men. But that anxiety quickly left him as soon as you laid your dark-lined eyes on him.
Let's talk about makeup. He loved it. And you'd have to be blind not to notice.
The second you walked into the office, with a new makeup routinely changing, Clark would melt in place. No, but literally, you'd see him slump in his chair or lean on a piece of furniture to support his suddenly fragile frame. When someone pointed this out, he'd quickly come up with an excuse—the worst—like "my back hurts" or "drank too much coffee."
When you two were talking, he had to fight—so hard—to keep his gaze on yours. The black of your eyelashes was so deep, the touches of color around them made him dizzy, and your lips, oh your lips, he sometimes took advantage of your attention being elsewhere to just devour them with his gaze.
This little game lasted several weeks, a little over a month to be exact, before one evening after work you suggested to go for a drink somewhere “to celebrate the success of your article,” you said.
Once together, you naively thought Clark would be a little less obsessed with you, but you were wrong. Now he had constant permission to have his hands and eyes on you.
He was less shy, even though at first he asked a lot of permission to touch you: “Can I here?” “Can I kiss you?” “Does it feel wrong if I hug you like this?” But that was also why you had fallen for him.
He researched as much as he could about transgender people. In fact, he did it as soon as he found out you were, because the thought of doing or saying something that might make you uncomfortable scared the hell out of him.
He memorized all the medical and social terms, explored the most famous transgender figures, and was surprised to discover how many had existed for hundreds of years. He even learned the meanings of the colors of the trans flag—just in case you were wondering.
If you were taking hormones or planning to have surgery, he would have read absolutely every article on the subject. He’d have used his reporter skills to find the best specialists. And of course, he would probably be more stressed than you at every appointment.
About Superman.
He had been sure of one thing when you first kissed: you had to know.
He didn't want to lie to you about it, he couldn't see himself repeatedly inventing lies to justify his absences.
So, right after your first kiss, he slipped in an “I’m Superman.”
He could have said it differently, I agree, but he was so stressed about you leaving him because of that.
“You’re Superman?” you repeated puzzledly, and then he clumsily took off his magic glasses. Your eyes immediately widened, your brain associating the shy and kind Clark with the life-saving superhero.
“Wow, you beat me there,” you replied, “my ‘oh, by the way, I’m trans’ announcement looks out of place.” And you burst out laughing, Clark’s stress evaporating and your love growing.
ESTABLISHED RELATION :
You steal his clothes, how can you not? The farmer-style shirts he has look so good with the right accessories.
Clark loves seeing how you transform simple clothes into a perfect and complex outfit, especially when the centerpiece is one of his t-shirts or pants.
He sometimes asks you to show him how you do your makeup, so he can understand and possibly do it again for you if one day you don't feel good.
And of course, you do his makeup. He doesn't feel like going out with it yet, but he's always happy to see his reflection when you're done.
Clark is like your outfit approver. You show him several versions of the same outfit and he gives you his opinion. He's actually quite good at it.
There are days when you wear tights, for example, but as the day goes on you end up feeling dysphoric. Clark is there to save you. He always keeps an oversized sweater and sweatpants nearby, just in case.
One habit he's gotten into with you is pulling you into a kiss by tugging – gently – on one or all of the necklaces you're wearing.
He enjoys searching for you with his super hearing when you have to meet somewhere or when you come home after him. He would recognize among a thousand the distinctive metallic sound of some of your jewelry, the rubbing of the layers of fabric you wear, or the leather’s soft creak of your belt.
ANGST :
You only had one argument.
You were walking home from shopping when a man deliberately bumped into you, causing you to drop your bag of food. You opened your mouth, but you were cut off by a comment about your clothing style. You were unfortunately used to it, but it still hurt, and when you got home you started crying in the hallway.
Clark came running, having heard your shortness of breath, and you explained everything to him. Of course, he reassured you, he listened to you as he always did. But that wasn't enough for you at that moment. You wanted someone to approve your anger towards this man and humans in general. Except that Clark has always loved humans, and he desperately clings to hope.
So that's when the argument started.
“Don’t you see the rottenness of human beings? How can you still defend people capable of such horrors?” you told him.
He tried to hold on to his ideas, to his faith, but hearing your voice break under your sobs, he finally gave in.
“You’re right,” he told you, letting his head fall back against the wall with a sigh. “Humans are cruel, so cruel to people who aren’t like them.”
The conversation goes then a little more calmly, you explained to him more kindly that you obviously liked his optimism, but that the idea that he remained stubborn about it when you, next to him, experienced transphobia and xenophobia on a daily basis was unbearable for you.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t see it that way, forgive me please” were the words that concluded your one and only argument.
Ever since a similar event happened, Clark was there for you more than for humanity. He defended you.
NSFW :
He didn't want to be too clingy at first in intimacy. He wanted you to feel comfortable, and above all, he was terrified of doing something wrong that would make you feel dysphoric. So he held back, enjoying every other moment with you. Until you made the first move—once again.
“I don’t want to seem starving or too needy,” he explained to you, a little embarrassed, to which you replied with a small smile, “I actually like it, I find it sexy and flattering.”
From then on, he couldn't hold back. Perhaps also because he simply couldn't do it anymore.
Clark, who, no matter how much he dreams of fucking you right now, absolutely wants to remove all your layers of clothing without damaging them.
One day you were so impatient that you ripped one of your tights yourself while trying to take them off. Clark immediately fell to his knees at the hole and said something like "no baby! I loved this one, it looked so good on you with the denim shorts" but you just responded by pulling him into a long kiss, interspersed with "it gives it style, ‘like it" to reassure him a little.
When he found out about leather harnesses that could be worn over tops, that was all he could think about. Until the day you surprised him by buying one and putting it on. Needless to say, you kept it on as your only "item of clothing" throughout the night.
One thing he loves: seeing your ruined makeup.
If that's what you like, he'll fuck you so good until he makes you cry over and over again, just to see your makeup completely ruined because of him.
He loves holding you close, seeing the eyeshadow marks on his chest or in the palm of his hand.
If you wear rings, you have to keep them on when he goes down on you. He wants to feel your hand pulling his hair, your rings getting caught in his brown curls, and the weight of your rings on his scalp as you push his head down even further.
Most of the time, he knows when you're feeling more dysphoric than normal. He hears the change in your heartbeat, your throat tightening, and your shortness of breath. So he always avoids the risky areas, focusing on the gentle ones.
“I know my love, sensitive here huh ? It is not a problem, we can still have fun, do you want that darling ?”
Lots of words of affirmation with him.
“Such a good boy for me” “I’m so proud of you angel” “Look at you, you are so brave”.
You discovered that he also really liked to be praised. In everyday life: “Don’t listen to what they say, you’re great Clark.” Just like in bed: “Make me feel so good love,” “Please do that again, love it,” “You’re good at this Kent.”
SENTENCES SCREAMING “CLARK KENT” :
❝ - You look so cool darling !
- How do I take this off? No wait, I don't want to ruin it, this top is so beautiful..
- I don't understand how you manage to put pencil in your eye, it doesn't hurt you’re sure?
- Come in my arms, let me hold you strong boy. ❞

A/N- hey, just a warning that i have no idea where this fic is going, and i dont really know how to express this typa love language but ig we’ll fuck about and find out!
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
the night started off sweet and gentle.
you and bob were laying in his bed, your knees straddling his thighs.
bob was caressing your skin with soft grazes and squeezes. hands trailing down your sides where his thumbs would dig into your soft skin.
his hand trailed up to your face, grazing your cheek, and being careful not to smudge your makeup.
“you know, if i could, i’d crawl into your ribcage and live with your heart. i think that would heal me in many ways than other. you know- if you’d let me.” you say, face completely serious.
“you know what? i’d probably let you, baby.” he says with a breathy laugh.
your hands trail down to his chest, making soft circles on his skin. his shirt was discarded many moons ago, which is now laying on his bedroom floor. your pants have also been discarded, leaving you in just your panties.
“wanna know something else?” you speak up again.
“what’s that baby?” he breathes.
“i’d love to be a mini person living in your body, to feel your heart thump against your chest. maybe to feel the blood rushing to your cock when i touch you like this.”
as you finish the sentence, your hands go behind your back and graze against his already hard cock.
sometimes you think you go a bit too far with your words, but you also remember that bob loves it, it makes him feel loved.
“i think- i think i’d love that too, sweetheart.”
his breath stutters when your hands presses against the bulge in his pants. his hand flies to your hips, trying to move you against him, desperate for any kind of friction.
your hand keeps making small circles on his cock, and it’s driving him crazy.
suddenly, he flips you over, and you’re under him in an instant. he presses his bulge against your core, subtly grinding against you.
your breath catches in your throat. you feel your panties dampen at his gesture.
“b-ob… please.” you whisper.
“please what, baby? gotta be specific for me, yeah?” he coo’s.
