IT MADE SENSE AT THE TIME, OKAY

[y56n11]

◟♡ ˒ ʾʾ Michael Jackson is exceptionally clingy. You had spent most days over at his house, sleepovers, dinners, movie nights. It was becoming as natural as breathing to you.

But of course, something kept itching away at your mind. Maybe Michael didn’t know how to push you away, maybe he was too kind. He probably needed a break from you.

So instead of arriving at his house like usual, you stayed at your apartment. Usually around this time Michael would arrive home from his studio sessions.

You were sitting in your own bed, flipping through a magazine when a sharp, shrill ring came through the telephone beside you.

Your heart leapt at the sound, you picked up at the third ring. “Hello?”

“Where are you?” Michael instantly asked, wasting no time.

“I’m in bed. At my apartment.”

“Why are you over there?” Michael sighed, you could imagine him frowning on the other side.

“Because I live here?”

“Did I do something?” Michael asked, you couldn’t help but notice how his tone was a mixture of restlessness and frustration.

“What! No! No. Of course you didn’t, Michael. I just… I just thought you might need space-”

Before you could even finish your sentence, Michael cut you off. “I don’t need space. I miss you. I want you here with me, baby.”

your heart sped up at his words, twisting the cord around your finger trying to distract yourself. “I’ll have Bill pick you up okay? see you soon.”

“…okay.” The line went dead. And you realise how far from the truth your thoughts had been.

Where were you when you encountered the immortal text?

[super-ion]

I was at a strategic planning meeting and they were talking about how they keep losing pilots in frontline assaults against the forcefemme hivemind so I asked how bad our numbers were and they told me they just need to boost recruitment and training for new mech pilots so I said it sounds like we're just feeding pilots to the forcefemme hivemind and then one of the generals started crying.

you, relaxing on the couch: hey baby, how was work?

sevika, picking you up over her shoulder as she walks towards your bedroom: bad.

"Lookie, lookie! Where is my Y/N Cookie...?"

Lovely, you thought. Can't this guy just leave you alone? You stood up to run away again— but in a blink, blue strings were attached to your limbs.

You gasped as they yanked you upward, bringing you face-to-face with him — His maniacal grin made your expression harden.

"There you are!~" He cackled, his staff vanishing in a puff of smoke— you winced, bracing for pain...

Only for him to cup your face — almost... tenderly?

"Did you really think you could get away, my Little Cookie...?" He purred as he looked down at you, the eyes in his hair shifting into hearts.

"Come on, let's get ya home~"
