Mushroom Loathing (Floyd Leech x Reader)
POV: Somehow the most bizarre can happen, Floyd accidently hits Jade’s mushroom with a complex spell that turns it into a male human being. He hated mushrooms before, but now when he takes care of it with you, he loathes mushrooms.
Side note: I don’t know- I just human-fy a lot of things and cry- (inspired by me looking at my Floyd plushie every two seconds.)
=============================================================
“..Floyd...”
“It was an accident~”
Floyd whined as Jade could only stare at his “cursed” mushroom. Floyd had somehow pulled off a complex spell, but in the end, he couldn’t control the power of it, and accidently directed it towards one of Jade’s mushroom terrariums.
Now Jade’s mushroom wasn’t even a mushroom anymore. It took shape of a tall and slender male human being. The mushroom Floyd hit was a toadstool; the human mushroom’s hair was a crimson red with white streaks, just like that of the cap of a toadstool. His eyes were a chocolate brown, shining like copper under the light, pale skin making the lad look weak and frail, yet it made him look pretty and ethereal.
He looked...stoic. His expressions were unreadable as he looked at his surroundings in a curious manner.
Jade sighs. “I... I’m going to have to search through my senior’s textbook for a spell reverse or some potion. You stay here to take care of it.”
“Lame..” Floyd frowned.
“Look, you can ask y/n to take care of it with you for as long as you like. It would probably take me awhile to find a cure,” Jade states, as he wore his black, uniform jacket.
Floyd pondered. Well he doesn’t mind spending time with you, and for as long as he wants until Jade is back. The mushroom can’t really do much, right? He hummed, and picked up his phone, lazily dialing in your phone number as Jade left.
He took it as a “yes”.
=============================================================
“So... Jade’s mushroom is a human now..?”
“Yeah..”
You looked at the human mushroom dumbfounded. He seemed to stare back at you too.
“So.. does it have a name?”
“No,” Floyd simply says, rolling off his bed and standing up, slinging both his arms around you in a clingy manner. “Ahhh! This is boring, koebi-chan, can we get out?~”
You nodded slowly, still maintaining eye contact with the human mushroom.
“Brier.”
“Huh?”
“We’ll call him Brier the Mushroom!” you exclaimed, taking the mushroom boy by his hand. He seemed to look slightly surprise, as his chocolate eyes widened a little.
“Brier, why don’t you tag along? Floyd, didn’t you said you had to take care of him? Kill two bird with one stone! Spend time with me at Monstro Lounge and both of us can look after Brier!” You smiled
Well, he figured that could work, right?
=============================================================
Floyd was glaring menacingly at Brier who was too oblivious to notice or feel the olive green and golden eyes of the moray eel piercing through his soul like a cold spear.
“Awww! So you do like Jade!”
“Jade..” it whispered with a soft and gentle tone, looking at a picture of his own gardener with a warm look in his eyes.
Apparently, the mushroom can feel what it’s like when he was cared and well nurtured for by Jade. He seemed to be very fond of Floyd’s twin brother, but he was also fond of you.
Having you help your boyfriend’s brother to tend to his mushrooms was a way to get along with him, and also a way for you to be friends with Octavinelle’s vice dorm leader.
Floyd didn’t mind such, because you spend most of your time with him, but Jade’s mushroom, Brier...
He hated mushrooms before, but he hates Brier the most.
Dressed in one of Jade’s uniforms, he tugged Jade’s jacket that draped around his shoulders like a blanket, as you showed him pictures of the Leech brothers on your phone, more of Jade’s of course.
Floyd cursed under his breath. He hated how Brier was stealing your attention away from him, and not only that, he seemed to always inching closer to you.
It was so annoying for the troubled eel, having to suffer while watching the gap being closed by the minute.
But what ticks him off the most is by how touchy he was with you. Brier haven’t touched anywhere inappropriate, but when you showed him a picture of Jade, he squeals softly and bury his head in your shoulders, slowly peeking at the photo again with a bright, pink blush present on his cheeks.
The pouting Floyd was grumbling about how he was suppose to have all the physical affection from you when he heard Brier squealing hard, sinking himself in your shoulder in a jerk motion as you wrapped your arms around him, laughing about how cute he was.
This damn Brier...
Floyd stood up and pulled you away from Brier. He snarled at the human mushroom, holding you possessively with a dark expression painting his face, eyes glinted menacingly as his hat casted a shadow on his face. Like a beast ready to attack.
“Don’t touch koebi chan, punk,” his tone was much lower than his usual airy, laid back tone.
Brier was taken aback, cowering in the very corner of the lavender couch looking frightened and confused.
“Hey! Floyd, you’re scaring him!”
“He’s hugging you too much!”
“Floyd!”
You folded your arms, looking crossly at your eel lover, your back facing Brier as to shield him away from Floyd.
“He just really likes Jade, he can’t help it!”
“Does he need to hug you every five minutes, huh?” Floyd looked angry, but you could tell he was hurt, seeing the very corner of his eyes pricked a single bead of a tear threatening to fall.
Your expression softened as you sighed, understanding Floyd being so upset with the lack of time being spent on him.
You gently wrapped your arms around the moody eel, softly caressing his cheek in a soothing manner.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry” you whispered.
Floyd remained quiet. The pout of him didn’t fade, but it dramatically softened, burying his face in your shoulder as he softly whined about how he wanted you to embrace him closer.
You smiled tenderly, stroking the teal haired man, looking back at Brier and put a finger on your lips.
Brier simply nodded, seemingly recovered from the earlier acrimonious eel.
=============================================================
“Floyd, it’s going to take me a few days in maki-”
“Take your Brier.”
“Brier..?”
Floyd gestured the human mushroom, who looked shyly at Jade, his chocolate eyes diverting away from him, and shuffled awkwardly with his feet, blushing madly at Floyd’s twin.
“His name is Brier..?”
“Shrimpy named him. Just take care of him, it’s your mushroom,” Floyd retorted, he glances back at your sleeping form, who was smiling gently and comfortably on Floyd’s untidy bed.
“Just let him stay on your side of the room.”
