“This was not your fault. This world seeks to keep you down, to shackle you. But the difference between you and the powers that be is just that: power. And I can give you enough to level the playing field. I only have a simple request…”

The Pink Coats found that their power over Momo Town was being threatened by a seemingly omnipresent force. Many of those unfortunate to be in-debt to them in any shape or form would be consumed by fear if they lived long enough to feel anything.
A despair that would take form and become power to strike back at the thugs running the show. Many reported being on the end of their rope or literally on the edge before a voice spoke to them in their heads, promising that they didn’t have to take what the world was putting them through.
After the power left them, the victims would claim to not remember what happened. However, they would see what their alter ego had done in acting out their greatest desires. This would lead to a lot of destruction, especially as Miraculous Bearers got involved, but the pink coats would often leave well enough alone in not wanting to rock the boat.
The Big Peach was not about to take this lying down. Especially as investigations revealed that a black butterfly would fly in and imbue itself into a material possession of the victim. The Butterfly Miraculous had been found and was seeking to subvert his family’s legacy. Even if some of his goons were chickening out, he wouldn’t stand for this.
Someone had just put a target on their back. But who? Those they shook down remembered feeling comforted by the voice and the paternal vibe it gave off. Like someone looking out for their child. Male? Female? That they couldn’t make out. It just felt… like a relieve.
It was as though they themselves had been one of them, one of the downtrodden. Abandoned by the world. Inevitably a name was
Of course, one other clue that came up was that each champion of the Moth was searching for something. Especially as they avoided engaging with those who could fight back. The Big Peach recognized them seeking in places where he thought that Miraculous was.
Suffice to say, it was one of the rare occasions he broke a nervous sweat.
It was recently ItaIno month in the Ino Supremacy server, and while I'm a little late finishing, I had to get this out in honor of my OTP! Check it out if you are in the mood for a Hades/Persephone type of story, complete with the dreary, morose atmosphere of an underworld setting because I've been known to love me some scenery p*rn. Shoutout to the amazing, spooky lore I was able to explore courtesy of @clem-chan whose story Watching an Apple Rot was the inspiration for this fic. I can't recommend her fic enough, so please do check it out!

Ship: Ino x Itachi
AU: Arranged Marriage
Being in an arranged marriage was a common occurrence in this world. Sometimes it was political- well, most of the time it was political. But in rare cases like this, it was a matter of interests.
The Uchihas and the Yamanakas are both old families. They've never truly worked with one another, but times have been changing. With his father as the head of the, he and the leader of the Yamanaka clan arranged a marriage with himself and the heiress of the Yamanaka, Ino. Their wedding was this morning, everything went smoothly as per the request of the clans. Friends and family were raving and praising such an event.
Now, Itachi just sat outside his new home with Ino, the two were watching the sunset.
"So, do you hate being in a marriage yet?" Ino asked her new husband, leaning on his shoulder.
"Never." Itachi simply answered. "What made you asked that?"
"Well, I just thought you'd hate having to be forced to marry someone you barely know..."
Itachi simply held Ino's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. "I'll admit, I wasn 't keen on getting married as part of a strategic move between clans. But... That doesn't mean we can't learn to love each other. " He told her. "If it's any consolation, I'm glad it was you that would be my wife."
That comment brought a smile upon Ino's face. "And I'm glad I have you as my husband Itachi. Maybe this wasn't so bad."
"I'd like to think that it could have been worse for the both of us." Itachi replied. "I think we'll be alright."
