CAPTAIN OBVIOUS

╰┈➤ ❝ In which, a TAPOPS Sergeant makes it blatantly obvious that she's into the elemental hero.

• Boboiboy x female!reader

Prologue

The aftermath of Retakka's defeat settled like dust in the golden afternoon light. The air, once thick with the acrid sting of raw power, now carried only the faintest whisper of scorched earth—a reminder of the battle that had nearly torn the planet apart. Boboiboy stood at the center of it all, his limbs still heavy with exhaustion, his chest still rising and falling just a little too fast.

Around him, his friends and family wore matching expressions of weary triumph— Gopal grinning like a fool as he hugged the container of curry, Yaya and Ying hugging their parents lovingly, Fang leaning against a half-crushed boulder with his usual aloofness.

It was a moment suspended in time, fragile and warm. 

And then the sky split open with the roar of engines. 

The sound was foreign— not the familiar hum of any TAPOPS vessel the heroes grew accustomed to, but something sharper, something wilder. Every head snapped upward as a sleek, silver-blue ship cut through the atmosphere, its thrusters flaring crimson before it touched down beside the bus the heroes family rode on. The landing gear hissed as it settled, the metal groaning under its own weight. 

Gopal squinted, one hand shielding his eyes from the glare of the setting sun. "Uh… who's flying that thing? Because if it's another bad guy, I swear—" 

Commander Koko Ci didn't answer. Instead, he let out a groan so deep it seemed to rattle his entire frame, his shoulders slumping in resignation. "Unbelievable," he muttered, dragging a hand down his face. "She only shows up now?" 

Yaya blinked. "She?" 

Fang, however, had gone very still. A smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth, his arms folding across his chest as the ship's ramp descended with theatrical slowness. For a brief moment, nothing happened—just the quiet hum of cooling metal. 

Then came the smoke. 

Thick, billowing clouds of it poured from the ship's interior, rolling across the ground in waves. It was utterly unnecessary—dramatic, deliberate, and entirely intentional.  

And then— 

A boot clicked against the ramp. 

A figure emerged from the haze, silhouetted against the dying light. One hand rested on her hip, the other dangling at her side like she hadn't a care in the world. The smoke curled around her, clinging to the edges of her fitted uniform before finally dissipating— revealing sharp, gleaming pink eyes and a grin that promised chaos. 

Her hair— wild, untamed— caught the sunlight like spun gold, bouncing with every step as she sauntered forward. The TAPOPS badge on her chest glinted, a silent proclamation of rank, but the way she carried herself was anything but formal. There was a swagger to her stride, a confidence that bordered on arrogance. 

Y/n stopped just short of the group, flashing a grin that was equal parts charming and infuriating. With a mock salute, she tilted her head.

"Hey, Commander~"

Her voice was syrup-sweet, dripping with false innocence. Commander Koko Ci's eye twitched. 

"You liked my grand entrance?"

"You," he said, voice strained, "have the worst timing in the entire galaxy. So now you finally decide to grace us with your presence— after the threat has been defeated?!?"

Y/n gasped, pressing a hand to her chest in mock offense. "Me? Bad timing? Commander, I'm hurt." She dropped the act just as quickly, shrugging. "Besides, you were the ones who sent me on that year-long 'deep-space recon'. Not my fault I missed all the fun."

"Fun?!" Koko Ci's voice cracked. "TAPOPS station is destroyed! Retakka—"

"—is defeated, yeah, I got the memo." She waved a hand, completely disregarding the commander.

Everyone watched, jaws dropping on the ground.

Stretching her arms, she squinted at the sky. "Man, is it just me or is the Earth’s sun way too bright? I’ve been jumping between dark planets for months." Her gaze skipped over Yaya, flickered past Gopal—then locked onto Fang. 

A slow, wicked grin spread across her face. 

The Commander groaned louder, clearly gearing up for another scolding—but before he could get another word in.

"Fang!"

Fang barely had time to brace himself before she launched at him, wrapping him in a hug so tight his feet left the ground. His ribs creaked in protest, his face turning an impressive shade of purple as he wheezed. 

"It’s been a whole year!" Y/n cheered, shaking him slightly for emphasis, squeezing him tighter causing his eyes to bulge. 

"Ghk— Y/n— can’t breathe—" Fang choked, clawing at her arms. 

She finally dropped him, watching with amusement as he staggered, gasping like a fish out of water. "What’s the big idea, huh?!" he snapped, rubbing his aching ribs. 

Y/n snickered, reaching out to flick him square in the forehead. "Respect your elders, brat."

"We’re the same age!"

"Ah, but I outrank you~" She sing-songed, tapping her badge with a grin. "So obey me, will ya?"

"I could say the same to you with the Commander." Fang rolled his eyes. Scowling as he turned away from the female, muttering something under his breath that sounded suspiciously like "Insufferable ."

Commander Koko Ci grumbled under his breath, his head already throbbing from Y/n’s antics— and she’d only been here for five minutes. 

Y/n, however, had already moved on. Her eyes swept over the group again—lingering for half a second on the group of gaping humans. "So!" she said, rocking back on her heels. "Where’s the hero of the hour?"

Gopal, ever the opportunist, seized Boboiboy by the shoulders and shoved him forward with enough force to nearly topple him. "BEHOLD!" he bellowed, gesturing dramatically. "The mighty Boboiboy! Defender of Earth, slayer of villains, savior of planets! The one and only—"

Boboiboy laughed nervously, flushed with embarrassment, waved a hand weakly while his other rubbed the back of his neck. "Uh, hi. Nice to meet you—"

Y/n wasn’t listening. 

The world narrowed to a single point— him. The way his hair was tucked inside his orange dino cap, the faint smudge of dirt on his cheek, the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled. The noise around her faded into static, her pulse roaring in her ears. Her grin faltered.

And then— 

"Hey." 

Boboiboy blinked at her.

"You’re cute."

A beat of silence. 

Before— 

"Wanna go out?"

The reaction was instantaneous.

Fang choked on nothing, doubling over with a strangled cough. Gopal and Ying's jaw hit the floor. Yaya gasped, loudly as her hand flew to her mouth. Koko Ci froze mid-facepalm, his expression caught between horror and resignation. 

Even the Zola family paused their chase on each other. Gaping at the girls forwardness. Tok Aba on the other hand, felt like passing out.

Everyone's head snapped towards the elemental hero.

Boboiboy? 

The poor boy short-circuited. 

His face erupted into flames, his mouth opening and closing like a landed fish. "I— uh— wh— WHAT?!"

Y/n just grinned.

Somewhere in the distance, a bird cried. The wind whistled through the trees. The universe itself seemed to hold its breath. 

And then— 

"I’ll take that as a yes~"

Captain Obvious had arrived.

And subtlety? 

Was never her style.

Bonus scene:

Boboiboy’s brain had officially blue-screened. His mouth moved, but no sound came out— just a faint, strangled noise that might’ve been a dying squeak. His face burned so hot he was half-convinced his elemental powers had malfunctioned and set his own head on fire. 

Gopal was the first to recover. 

"WHAAAAAAT?!" He lunged forward, shaking Boboiboy violently by the shoulders. "SINCE WHEN DO YOU GET CONFESSIONS BEFORE ME?! I’M THE CHARISMATIC ONE!"

Fang, meanwhile, had his face buried in his palms. "I can’t believe I actually miss this level of chaos for a whole year," he muttered, a smirk tugging at his lips at Y/n's absurdity. 

Commander Koko Ci looked like he was one second from activating an emergency teleport just to escape. "Y/n," he gritted out, "you were gone for twelve months. Twelve. Months. And within five minutes of returning, you’re already—"

"Making life interesting?" Y/n supplied cheerfully, not even pretending to look sorry. 

Boboiboy finally rebooted. "H-Hold on!" He flailed, waving his hands like he could physically swat away the situation. "You can’t just— just say stuff like that out of nowhere!"

Y/n tilted her head. "Why not?" 

"BECAUSE IT’S—!" He floundered, gesturing wildly at everything. "SUDDEN! AND PUBLIC! AND—!"

"True?" She grinned, walking over to him and leaning in, just enough to make his soul leave his body. "Would you rather it'd be just the two of us then?"

Boboiboy made a noise like a deflating balloon. 

Fang snorted. "Wow. You broke him." 

Gopal wiped away a fake tear. "They grow up so fast."

"Y/n,” The commander said, voice dangerously calm. “Report to the Admiral. Now.” 

A hush fell over the group. Even Fang straightened slightly at the mention of high command. But Y/n? 

She hummed, tapping a finger against her chin in exaggerated thought. “Hmm… Admirals, Admirals… Nope! Doesn’t ring a bell.”

Koko Ci’s left eyelid started spasming. “You—!”

The moment Y/n's teasing words left her lips, the air behind her crackled with ominous energy, as if the universe itself was holding its breath. A familiar, bone-chilling voice boomed across the clearing like thunder: 

"Doesn't ring a bell, EH?!"

Y/n froze mid-smirk. Her grin didn't falter— but her pupils shrank to pinpricks, her fingers twitching almost imperceptibly. Slowly and dramatically, she turned her head— her hair catching the golden afternoon light as she moved— and came face-to-face with Admiral Tarung, his massive frame towering over her like a storm cloud given human form.

His lips was twisted in a scowl so deep it could've curdled milk. Beside him, Captain Kaizo stood with his arms crossed, the very picture of exhausted disapproval. His crimson eyes narrowed in a look that screamed 'Really? This again?'

The temperature seemed to drop ten degrees. 

Silence. Heavy. Oppressive. The kind of silence that made Gopal instinctively duck behind Fang. 

Then— 

Y/n's expression flipped like a switch, her eyes widening into perfect circles of faux innocence. "Ah!" she gasped, slapping a hand over her heart as if struck by divine revelation. "How could I forget my beloved brothers~!" She threw her arms open wide, like she was about to embrace them in a heartfelt reunion—if one ignored the devilish spark in her gaze. 

Admiral Tarung's eye twitched in perfect, horrifying sync with Koko Ci's. A vein in his temple pulsed like a live wire. "Twelve. MONTHS." he growled, each word dripping with barely restrained fury. "Twelve months of radio silence, of ignored transmissions, of every officer in the quadrant wondering if you were DEAD—" His voice rose to a roar, "—and THIS is how you greet us?!"

Kaizo sighed, the sound of a man who had long since accepted his fate as the only sane person in the organization. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "You haven't changed at all," he muttered, though there was the barest hint of fondness beneath the exasperation. 

Y/n winked, utterly unrepentant. "And you love me for it."

Tarung made a noise like a boiling kettle left on too long. His massive hands flexed. For one terrifying second, it looked like he might actually strangle her.

Then— 

An action.

With a snarl, the Admiral lunged forward, seizing Y/n by the back of her uniform collar and hoisting her into the air like a misbehaving kitten. Her boots dangled a full foot off the ground. 

"HEY—! I CAN WALK, YOU KNOW—!" Y/n flailed, kicking her legs wildly, but Tarung's grip was ironclad. 

Koko Ci and Kaizo fell into step behind them like a pair of long-suffering shadows. "Insubordinate gremlin," the Commander muttered, rubbing his temples. 

Kaizo didn't even glance at the girl as she twisted in Tarung's grip. "You're embarrassing yourself." he deadpanned. 

"I'M EMBARRASSING YOU." Y/n shot back, still grinning even as she was hauled away. 

Just before she was yanked into a nearby tent, Y/n twisted around— locking eyes with a still-shell-shocked Boboiboy, who stood rooted to the spot, his face the color of a ripe tomato. 

And then, with a smirk that could melt glaciers— 

She blew him a flying kiss. 

The tent flaps closed behind her with a decisive swish. 

Silence. Thick. Awkward. 

Ying blinked. "...Did she just flirt while being arrested?"

Fang sighed, the sound of a man who had seen this exact scenario play out a hundred times before. "Yep," he said, popping the 'p'. "That's her."

Boboiboy meanwhile, let out a huge breath— before his knees finally gave out, and he collapsed onto the ground in a boneless heap.  

Gopal howled with laughter, lightly elbowing a stunned Tok Aba on his abdomen. "Looks like your grandson has an admirer, Tok!"

A Purposeful Avoidance? (Elemental headcanon)

>A headcanon of mine for the collective elementals is their inability to speak Malay! (Or rather, a fear of)

Let's not get into the specifics of why they only understand English--let's focus on the angst, baby!

They can't speak Malay (as previously stated), despite the fact that their master and companions speak Malay as their mother tongue. That was the norm among them for a long while.

It changed when the Kokotaim gang subtly-not-so-subtly asked why they never spoke Malay with them. It was painfully obvious that it was a purposeful avoidance from the elementals, especially when they replied exclusively in English despite being spoken to in Malay. (Most of the time, they tried not to listen to conversation held in Malay, it was obviously not for their ears to hear.)

They gave no answers to the gang whenever they asked.

In the very beginning, communication between the Kokotaim gang and elementals were rough. The young gang's English were limited, and the elemental didn't even know the existence of the Malay language until Boboiboy became their wielder.

They caught bits and pieces of the language now--six years will give you that. (they learned a lot about humans during this time too, their language and culture and odd biology compared to them and other aliens throughout the galaxy--though, that's a post for another day.)

They were even able to understand a full conversation between the Kokotiam gang, and the only way they really knew and realized that was because Gempa ended up lightly scolding the gang for using curse words.

The surprise was impossible to miss among the gang. Sure, they were scolded. But they were scolded because Gempa understood.

Despite the ear twist Boboiboy received--he was openly very happy for Gempa and went rambling on in Malay, forcing Gempa to ask him to slow down because it wasn't like Gempa understood a lot.

Just the little things, things repeated by the gang, that they picked up the meaning over time.

Then the question came again; "Why don't you try speaking it?"

Why?

They never knew they were allowed to, a fear of sort holds them back. An inferiority.

Slowly, very slowly, they try familiarizing those words on their tongue. Sometimes, one of them would get caught by the Kokotaim- mumbling some words under their breath whenever they catch drift of them in a conversation between the Kokotaim. The Kokotaim gang never say anything, of course--they bit their tongue so they wouldn't accidentally scare the elementals off.

They still don't speak Malay, not due to a lack of understanding (though, that is too, a partial reason), but due to their feelings of staying inferior towards their wielders, due to their fear of getting too familiar, too comfortable--forgetting their place as elementals to be used to their wielders' liking.

Nowadays, they mostly listen in on conversations, but sometimes--the gang will hear Halilintar trying to take an order--speaking to an older grandmother who wants a hot cup of cocoa in bits of Malay and English.

Sometimes, they hear Solar quietly correcting a grammatical mistake made by the other elementals.

Sometimes they hear Gempa softly whispering the meaning to certain words to elementals that haven't caught onto it yet.

Sometimes.

Only sometimes.

The Kokotaim gang is proud of their elementals anyway, especially Boboiboy. How could he not be proud?
