Current and forever Beni simp. Would you possibly write a reader whos the daughter of someone whos incredibly like Empire pride and she leaves the Empire for Asakusa and maybe Beni and her fuck? I dont know how to describe whats in my head.
Ooooohhh this is a good one! If you're still around I hope I was able to give your idea justice!
So... Whew this one kind of got away from me a little bit, so I split it into 2 parts. This one is mostly safe, maybe a little canoodling toward the end. Part 2 will be all the scandalous NSFW bits.
(Also I just wanted to say, not sure the story behind your username but you absolutely should be proud. <3)
Beni x Empire!Reader below!
Part 2 Here!
Shinmon Benimaru
Trust Issues
"I don't like this, Waka," Konro declared, a worried wrinkle between his brows. "She may seem nice enough, but they always do at first. I don't feel good about this. The empire can't be trusted."
"We trust them with your medicine," Beni retorted. Konro bristled a little.
"That's different. We have no other option. That was part of the deal when we became Company 7."
"Still have to trust them. Maybe she didn't have a choice either."
Konro grunted softly. "Possibly, but don't forget it's the way she was raised. That means something."
"Noted," Beni replied dryly, popping a cherry into his mouth. "She can stay here at the guardhouse. We can keep a better eye on her that way."
Konro could've choked. "Here?"
Beni grabbed the bowl of cherries from the stand and reclined to his elbows, the bowl on his tummy. "If she is a threat we'll send her back. If she's telling the truth, she might end up being useful."
Konro frowned, contemplating Beni's proposal. With a heavy sigh he conceded. "If you think that's what we should do, we'll do it. I'm still not sure I like the idea, but I'm behind you."

A week of side-eyes and unspoken threats. No matter what you did, not how helpful you tried to be, nothing affected Konro's stony demeanor. He was civil most of the time, sometimes almost friendly, but there was no mistaking the intimidating energy he put off.
You weren't especially nervous about it. You wouldn't trust you either.
Beni was... different. Never seemed very far away. You figured he was keeping eyes on you, but the questions threw you off a little. There were the expected questions: Why did you leave? Why did you come here? Why should I trust you? But then he'd started asking seemingly unrelated questions: what's your favorite food? What kind of music do you like? Do you have any kids?
You assumed he was trying to be thorough but he didn't really know what he was doing. Regardless, you answered them, and then talked for hours longer. He was almost starting to feel something like a friend.
As you strolled through town a handful of villagers greeted you with a smile; most scowled, some vendors refused to sell to you, others refused to acknowledge your presence. You told yourself you understood, you'd feel the same, but it didn't really take the sting away. It felt unfair to judge you by your family, but what else did they know about you yet?
You trudged back to the guardhouse, trying not to let it bring you down. Beni, already outside waiting, stood and outstretched his arms, waiting for you to hand him some of your bags.
"You really don't have to, I'm a big girl."
"I'm already here. Might as well."
He took the bags from your arms, giving you little choice in the matter. After helping you put them up he invited you on a walk through town with him, introducing you properly to each of their neighbors. They all treated you a little more kindly this time, out of respect for their Destroyer King.
Why, you wondered. Why go out of his way to do this? Had he seen them during her walk?
Maybe he was a friend.
---
A month later and almost everyone in town treated you like a neighbor. Almost. Even Konro had warmed a little to your presence.
Beni now seemed to hang out with you for fun. You spent most of your time together bantering back and forth, in passionate discussions about things that didn't matter, or just enjoying some comfortable silence together.
Wandering the halls of the guardhouse looking for something to do, you heard Beni's voice, tense and irritated, followed by Konro's. You knew you shouldn't but you couldn't help but press yourself against the wall to listen through the cracked door.
"You said she would be useful. How has she helped since she's been here?"
"She will be. Look, I don't trust her much either but she's starting to trust me. I'll get something out of her. Then maybe you'll stop complaining."
Ouch. That stung. Of course they don't trust you yet, you told yourself. It's only been a month. Barely.
But it didn't take the sting away. Konro you understood, he'd been plain about his distrust. Beni was supposed to be different, a friend, really your only friend. Instead he'd been deceiving you to pry information out of you. How could that be true?
You'd heard enough. With as much stealth as you could muster with your heart thundering like it was you slipped back down the hallway and headed for the garden. You just wanted to tuck yourself away to hide for a while.
For the next week you hardly spent any time with Beni, using any excuse you could think of to avoid spending time with him. For a whole day you'd followed Konro on errands to avoid Beni. He seemed confused but didn't press the issue.
The evening of the seventh day rolled around and you sat tucked back in a shrouded corner of the garden, curled around a book.
"So this is where you've been hiding."
You jumped and chucked the book, sitting up and folding your legs and arms defensively, the book hanging somewhere in a bush. "Not hiding," you argued. "Reading."
Beni scoffed and rolled his eyes. "You can read anywhere, this is where you choose? No. You're hiding. Why?"
You hesitated. "Maybe I'd like to be alone. Maybe I'd like one place to be unbothered for a little while."
"Your room has a door. I don't buy it. You've been avoiding me but you hide from me in a place you know I visit often. Tell me why."
You were caught off guard. Despite the hours you'd spent with him here, the thought hadn't occurred to you.
"I... don't know."
You were still hurt and you knew that, but you couldn't tell him why. Beni stood staring at you and you wanted to wither under his gaze, the persistence urging you to confess. Instead you stood, brushing the debris from your behind, and offered a dismissive 'if that was all' as you brushed past him.
But a hand around your arm stopped you, whipping you back toward him. He stepped closer, hand still on your arm. "Tell me. Why?"
His expression was unreadable but the stare just as persistent. He looked stern, maybe even angry... it was hard to tell. "I really don't know," you insisted.
He took a deep breath and stepped closer still, eyes dropping to investigate the rest of your face. "You're either hiding from me or you've got something to hide." He studied your face again, scanning for any sign of... anything. You tried to keep your face neutral but your heart was thundering and your mouth was dry and you were probably turning red. "Or maybe both? What are you not telling me?"
"I'm not hiding anything from you," you offered, cringing hearing your own tacky mouth. "I just... think I misinterpreted the situation."
He reared back a little, confused. "Misinterpreted what?"
"I thought... I just thought. I mean," you wiped your sweating forehead and brushed your hair back, sighing heavily. "I thought we were, I don't know, friends. Or something."
"Friends?" he said thoughtfully. "What makes you think we aren't?"
You couldn't help the sardonic laugh you let out.
"What would make me think we are? I need a place to stay, you need information on the Empire that I could probably provide. It's transactional."
Beni groaned and shrunk a little. "I didn't mean that. Actually I guess I did a little. But that was mostly for Konro's benefit. I, uh." He hesitated, looking suddenly nervous.
"You what?"
Beni shifted, looking even more nervous. "I uh. I don't know how to explain it. There was something about you. It sounds stupid but I had a good feeling I guess. I like spending time with you. I think about you a lot. Damn it."
Butterflies welled in your belly until your eyes narrowed, stomach sinking. "This is kind of a shitty way to get back into my good graces..."
"I'm not... what?" He sounded incredulous. And annoyed. "Seriously?"
"Who would you be more likely to lie to, Benimaru? Your lieutenant and lifelong friend or the enemy on your doorstep?"
"You think I'm lying?"
"I don't think you're truthing."
"You don't think I'm... you've got to be kidding me."
He leaned back and looked at you again, really looked at you. He was debating something, you could tell, wheels turning in his eyes. He took a step closer to you, close enough to feel the heat coming off him.
"Have I treated you like you're an enemy?" he argued, a different look in his eyes as he scanned your face. "If I didn't like you, you'd know it." He took your chin in his fingers to lift your face, brushed away some stray hairs from your cheek. "Does this seem like I don't like you?"
Could you write a Beni/Konro sickfic, but with Beni being the sick one? Please and Thank you
HI ANON! I have to say, this request is cute AS HECK and I thoroughly enjoyed writing this!! I think this may actually be the first actual story-ish thing I’ve written and posted in a long time! I really hope you like it!!
Benimaru had almost fallen again. Konro sighed, watching from a short distance as Waka stumbled from his room toward the kitchen, his valiant display of strength falling far short of its intention. Beni groaned and stumbled again, bracing himself against the nearest wall and burying his face in his hands. Konro rushed to his side.
“Not feeling well?” Konro said as he grabbed Beni’s left hand and slipped his shoulder under his arm, a familiar stance usually following a night of partying on Beni’s part.
“I’m fine,” Beni slurred, looking pathetically up at Konro with glassy, bloodshot eyes.
“Oof, fine is a stretch. Come on Waka, let’s get you to bed.
Benimaru tried to shove Konro’s shoulder away as he scoffed: a quiet, rasping spray of spittle followed by a coughing fit. Konro had to bite back laughter, trying to spare his friend *some* dignity. Once Beni could breathe, Konro slipped his shoulder under his arm again and hoisted him up a little, finding Beni finally acquiescing as he sighed against Konro’s side.
“Come on, Waka,” he urged again, softer this time. “Let’s go to bed.” Beni just nodded, exhausted and miserable and begrudgingly relieved to be in Konro’s strong, stalwart arms. When they tried to take a step forward and Beni stumbled again, Konro leaned down and swept the back of Beni’s knees over his arms, lifting him with an ease similar to their youth. Beni snorted aloud, “didn’t think you still had it in you, old man.”
Konro grinned wide, his love for his companion overpowering the singing ache surging through his spent shoulders. “Thought you were past being surprised at this point.”
Beni laughed again, this time a soft, humming sound. “You never stop surprising me, Konro.” Konro could feel Beni’s eyes burning into the side of his face and he cursed the blush rushing to his cheeks and the heavy ba-dump of his skipping heart, which he was sure Beni could feel.
When they reached the door Beni automatically reached out his hand to open it, entirely familiar with this mode of transportation to his room after almost a lifetime of Konro helping to fix his fuckery. Beni quickly set the torches alight and prepared to be deposited onto his mat.
As Beni pulled the blankets around himself, shivering despite the unusually high heat radiating from him, Konro knelt at his side and swept the hair from his face, staring down at him with an expression that made Beni’s heart skip a little. “Are you ok? Do you need anything?” Konro asked, genuinely concerned.
Beni smiled, nuzzling harder against his pillow, and lifted one side of the blanket. “I’m kind of cold,” he said, hiding his grin beneath the blanket he pulled up, “mind helping me with that?”
Konro laughed aloud at the cheek as he slipped the robe from his shoulders and the slippers from his feet. As he slid under the blanket, tucking Beni up under his arms and as tight against him as he could, he murmured into Beni’s hair, “spoiled brat.”
Beni smiled ear to ear, snuggling back against Konro’s bare chest and belly. “You made this.” The puff of air from Konro’s chuckle against the tender hairs behind his ear raised goosebumps over Beni’s skin. “And you love it.”
As they relaxed against one another and started drifting into pleasant unconsciousness, Konro whispered against the soft skin at the back of Beni’s neck, “More than anything, my Waka....”
Wooooooo we made it too 100!! And 140 followers!! Guys!!
