*shy* Hey, about monster themed prompts, can I have Daybreak - angel: virginal? >////<

angel: virginal

warnings: heavy petting, interrupted make-out session

   Yusaku was shaky as he held onto Jin’s hands. Jin was beneath him, allowing himself to be pinned to the bed. He gazed up at Yusaku with a small smile, his eyes shining beneath his shagging fringe as he felt Yusaku’s legs graze up against him, the bed creaking as Yusaku attempted to get comfortable.

   “Y-You have condoms, lube?” Jin asked in a voice which was small.

   Yusaku blushed. “Yes, of course.” he huffed.

   “Good, good,” Jin mumbled, “just checking, because Nii-san has some in his room, just in case.”

   “Good to... know?” Yusaku mumbled. “Let’s, um, let’s not talk about him, yeah?”

   “O-Oh, your right, that’s... awkward.” Jin agreed, eyes widening.

   Yusaku half-laughed; it was more of a strange puff of breath. “It’s fine. We’re both... awkward.”

   Jin lifted himself slightly off the bed. His hands fell away from Yusaku’s, only to latch around Yusaku’s neck with a gentle clasp. Yusaku lowered himself slightly and let Jin nuzzle against him. His hair was so soft, wisping across his face, as he reached up to Yusaku. Yusaku pecked his lips and he felt his whole body burn with a strange sense of giddiness.

   He was really doing this. They were both doing this. Well, they would be once they got out of their clothes and potentially turned the lights off, was it more or less romantic that way? Yusaku had no idea, to be honest. He hoped it would be something which would come clear to him as the mood between them deepened and they connected. Sexually. The mere thought of it brought a wobbly smile to his face and his cheeks to red.

   Jin was the one to deepen the kiss. His tongue slipping past Yusaku’s guard and his lips. Yusaku moaned awkwardly, the noise reverberating inside of both their mouths. It was good though. Jin was soft, a gentle lead and Yusaku felt emboldened to grind against him. Their day clothes made for strange friction against them both and Jin’s bed.

   Their kiss proceeded with a strange warmth, likely due to the hormones produced as they had agreed tonight would be the night. And, as Yusaku slipped out of his school jacket whilst kissing Jin, a task which looked far easier and sexier on television, it seemed that things might just go their way. Once the jacket was discarded, Jin took the initiative of tugging away Yusaku’s blue tie and Yusaku honestly found that quite enticing.

   Jin’s fingers undoing the knot but with a playfulness. The tug on Yusaku’s neck, bringing him closer and forcing him to continue the kiss; picking up on the slack in Jin’s distraction. It caused his heart to pound erratic and his breaths to turn shallow. But, sure enough, Jin was soon able to unwind the tie from Yusaku’s neck and let the tie flutter elsewhere in its discarding. Allowing Jin to then focus his efforts on unbutton Yusaku’s shirt.

   Yusaku smiled as they kissed. It was a rare smile, one addled by a sort of teenage lust that was honestly quite alien to him. But he liked it. He wanted to grow used to it and exploring himself, and Jin. Honestly, his skin prickled shamelessly at the thought of having Jin’s hands all of him. And his mouth too. And tongue. And perhaps more than that if the night continued to go right as it was.

   Jin bucked his hips whilst his fingers dodged along the buttons. Yusaku moaned. It was a guttural moan, deeper than he intended but Jin liked the sound of it; it warmed his core. And the front door to the Kusanagi apartment slammed open.

   “Jin, I’m home!” A pause. “Oh, Yusaku, are you here too?”

   Jin froze beneath Yusaku. Yusaku froze atop Jin. 

   “We can’t.” Jin said.

   “We shouldn’t.” Yusaku mumbled, the condoms in his back pocket suddenly burning a hole.

   “Um... you hungry?” Jin asked.

   “Guess so?”

   “Boys?” Kusanagi yelled out and they heard his footsteps. “Oh no.”

   “We’re coming!” Jin yelled.

   “You’re what?!” Kusanagi shouted from the other side of the door.

   “No we’re not; that was poor word choice!” Yusaku yelled, frantically afterwards and he was now scrambling to get off of Jin who was dying of red hot embarrassment.

(Sorry about shipping stuff) God, so Ai was revealed in some way to be Yusaku's baby?? And his color scheme for some reason just screams Shoichi??? You know what I mean, haha ^^‘

Don’t apologize! I’m always down to talk about our lil’ tugboats.

So what you’re saying is… hotdogshipping family AU (? lbr is it really even an AU at this point)

Yusaku’s a disgruntled single parent of a hyperactive AI. Their relationship is a bit contentious because Ai’s just entered a difficult age and is staring to rebel. It’s typical teenage bullshit: staying out late, running off to hang out with shady programers, “experimenting” with robots (he’s sure Roboppy’s a nice robomaid, but…). But Yusaku barely has time to spend with him, being dedicated to his work of taking down terrorist organizations bare handed.

Yusaku keeps it cool but deep down he’s worried about his relationship with his AI child. It seems like just yesterday he was only a few lines of code, and now he’s out there getting drunk on glitch text! Between annihilating the KoH and thinking about Ai, he sometimes forgets to eat…

So one day he’s downtown, looking for a place to get a quick bite. He stumbles upon a certain hotdog truck, and…! The hotdog vendor is sort of cute?? Yusaku wishes he knew how to flirt, or at least be outwardly friendly, because the vendor keeps smiling at him and Yusaku’s so nervous he’s sure he’s got his resting bitch face on and the vendor’s definitely going to think he’s some sort of hard-hearted bastard when really, he’s just tired. 

But the nice hotdog man doesn’t seem deterred. He introduces himself, and Yusaku wonders if Shoichi just gives out his name to every customer that wanders up to his truck. 

Yusaku goes to see Shoichi every day after that (eventually working his way up to Free Hotdog Rank), but he can only really afford to stay about 10 minutes at a time. But Shoichi doesn’t like saying goodbye, that much is clear, so it doesn’t surprise Yusaku when he one day asks what is it that keeps pulling him away.

He keeps the details about his vigilante work vague, and Shoichi doesn’t pry. But his hotdog man wants to know all about his kid! What’s his name, how old is he, what’s he like? This catches Yusaku a little off guard, it’s not every day that people want to know about his little purple bean. So he tells him; Shoichi doesn’t even seem to be off-put by the fact that his “child” is an AI. But whatever small swell of pride he felt is eclipsed by the ache he feels in his chest. It’s so much so that he thinks it may even show on his face. (He and Ai really are growing apart, aren’t they?)

Yusaku looks up, and he swears that something about the look on Shoichi’s face is… knowing? But it lifts from his face just as quickly as it came, and Shoichi says, “it sounds like you really love him.”

The next day, Ai actually comes home on time.

The incessant chatter begins as soon as Yusaku walks through the door, and it reminds him of way back when Ai was attached to his duel disk. They were always together back then, and now Ai is buzzing around him excitedly, the curb connecting his eyes more defined than usual. 

“Can I come with you on your next mission? Can we go troll naughty hackers like we used to? I feel like crying, can we go see a scary movie with Aoi sometime soon?”

Yusaku plays it cool, but he answers in single word responses. He isn’t sure what to make of this, why the sudden change? His stomach whines in the middle of Ai’s rambling. His AI baby stops mid-sentence.

“Oh, you’re hungry! Let’s go get something to eat!”

Yusaku shrugs, but then an idea hits him… “Sure. I could use a hotdog.”

Ai’s face lights up, and Yusaku figures it’s because he’ll get to have a taste (he’ll smash the food against his face and make a mess of things, but Yusaku’s long since gotten used to that). Besides, it might be nice showing Shoichi the AI he rambled on about the day before. 

Yusaku makes it up to the hotdog truck, Ai hidden in his duel disk (most people still aren’t used to seeing the ignises). He orders his hotdog like usual, going through their unofficial “ritual” where he tries to pay only to have Shoichi refuse his money. 

He thanks Shoichi and takes the hotdogs. “Um,” he really isn’t good at these things, “remember when I told you about Ai? Well,” he holds out his duel disk, “I brought him along today.”

Ai pokes his head out of the duel disk, his “mouth” curb stretching out into a wide grin. “Hi Shoichi!”

Shoichi smiles. “I didn’t think you’d take my advice so soon. You’re usually more stubborn than that.”

Well. It’s not every day that something surprises Yusaku (not that he’ll let it show). He looks down at Ai. “Is he…?”

“One of my shady hacker friends, yup! And he said you miss me!” Ai climbs out of the duel disk, cupping his face with his hands and smiling bashfully. “You really, really miss me?? You should have said so!” he leaps up to hug Yusaku, the width of his arms barely making it across Yusaku’s chest. “I miss you too! I thought you didn’t want me around…”

“What? No.” Yusaku discreetly looks around. He really doesn’t want to have a ‘touching family moment’ out in public like this. But his eyes snag on Shoichi, and he feels himself melt just a little bit more. “Thank you. You didn’t have to do that.”

Shoichi leans over and places his hand on Yusaku’s cheek. “My pleasure. I just want you to be happy.”

The cute hotdog man wants him to be happy. Yusaku could kiss him for this, and he certainly feels brave enough to try. But… later. Not in front of Ai. He doesn’t need his child teasing him over his budding romance.

Hi! Awwh, that art with Yusaku x Yuya is so cute! ^^ I also noticed that you were asking about the ship's name in tags. I actually sent in a suggestion to crossover ship list blog, but, alas, they seem to be inactive right now :( As for the name, it's Magnetshipping.

Sorry about the late reply! And thanks, I’m glad that you liked it. o/

Hopefully they’ll get to confirm for the fandom the shipping name sooner or later then! Is the shipping name due to how Yusaku and Yuya are a bit like polar opposites? I guess they don’t have much in common, other than they care about friends and their surnames are named after a tree.  xD 

Weird thing is, when you mentioned “magnet”, the first thing I thought of was the Vocaloid song LOL. 

[entamewitchlulu]

Yusaku/Yuya (or as I call them for now, Magnetshipping)?

it’s ridiculously aesthetically pleasing, and from what I know of Yusaku so far I find it absolutely hysterical to pair the boisterous “dueling shouldn’t be used for fighting!” Yuya with the reserved, socially awkward “I only care about revenge” Yusaku.

Yuya would probably give Yusaku a talking to and try to coax him into an entertainment duel, haha.  “Come on, Yusaku!! Dueling is supposed to be fun!!  I’ll make you smile ;D” Yusaku: “…..curse me and my bisexual tendencies”

14 + Daybreakshipping, please? ^_^

14. things you said after you kissed me

@vrainsarcvlover I’m so sorry for the wait, but thank you for your patience, this was a very cute prompt!!

   It was Jin who had initiated the kiss and it had been Jin who had ended the kiss. Yusaku didn’t mind. He didn’t know what he had been doing, he had just been sort of glad that he could do it at all and overcome with this strange, stinging sensation of not wanting to do anything wrong or hurtful, so he had just gone with Jin’s lead. Though, Jin was not in a more excellent position than Yusaku, if anything, he should have been worse or lost but nonetheless, together they made an awkward if paltable match.

   Yusaku blushed as he stole a glance at Jin. Jin smiled, shyly, at him from behind his hands. His fingertips brushing up against his lips. They tingled. It was a strange sensation that he kind of liked. It was fuzzy and warm and kind of silly but really, really nice too.

   “That was,” he mumbled, eyes dipping down to the floor and away from Yusaku who seemed to be on the verge of spontaenous human combustion from too much skin-to-skin contact, even though it had been very little at all, “that was really good. Thank you, Yusaku.”

   Yusaku took a sharp breath. It felt wonky and wrong inside his lungs as something, something he was willing to call butterflies, floated up through his stomach and raged against the inside of his skin. It was a warm and fluttering feeling, but he liked it. It made him feel flustered but it didn’t make him feel scared, instead it was a rather hopeful with echoes of wanting to look forward to the future. But by the same token, Yusaku had never felt this way before and his heart was very guarded. He didn’t like feeling vulnerable and right now, he felt completely and utterly defenceless. So, Yusaku had to will himself to feel differently instead of letting this moment, this little moment between him and his important person, wilt into the same, stunted patterns as before. So, Yusaku told himself that he wanted to like it because his heart was pounding but not in a terrified way. But, rather, a sweet and embarrassed but in love for the first time teenage boy sort of way. As complicated of a feeling that was.

   “I’m glad, Jin.” he replied. His words were stilted but Jin didn’t mind. So, slowly, Yusaku’s hand inched closer to Jin’s on the lounge. Jin smiled and he let Yusaku clasp his hand. “We should, um, we should kiss more. Maybe. If you want.”

   Now it was Jin who was the one blushing. His hollow grey eyes caught light in ways they didn’t seem to normally catch light. It was cute to see him embarrassed, Yusaku realised, though such a realisation continued to embarrass him in turn. Jin’s fingers trembled slightly unto Yusaku’s awkward, but gentle, hold. He swallowed.

   “I would love that, Yusaku.” Jin said, still unable to make eye contact with Yusaku but Yusaku was the same, ultimately, and he could hear how sincere Jin was in his soft, mumbled voice and he thought that was fine.

What about Yusaku/Yuya for the meme? :)

i don’t think they would get along but I could be wrong as some people would believe that I fundamentally misunderstand Yuya’s character :shrug:

but do i absolutely want an zexal/arc v/vrains movie like that dm/gx/5ds one i haven’t seen yet? hell fucking yes.

[pendulumprince]

Maybe, ultramarine = deep blue = deep sorrow?

Maybe! So the line could translate to: “people I meet, my regrets - they’re all like [sorrowful] diamonds to me.” Sounds a little weird there, but the deeper meaning could be that the people in his life, though precious, are also a point of regret and melancholy because he was unable to protect them.

I think this would make sense, but what’s stopping me from saying this is definitely it is that the color blue may have different symbolic connotations in Japan than it does in the West. I’m not really sure about this, so if anyone better versed wants to step in, please do!

Maybe "The Other Lost Incident" is like from Spectre's point of view? Because we don't actually know much about the incident aside from Yusaku's point of view. But I wonder then, if Spectre is the Lost Baby, then how come he is Revolver's right-hand man? It's basically he is for some reason allied with the son of Kogami, the one who hurt him?

(In reference to this post.)

Maybe. We know that Revolver certainly sees it in a different way.

Revolver (episode 12): “You’re a fool, Playmaker. To help SOL Technologies without knowing the truth!”

We know that Revolver knows about The Lost Incident, and was probably a Lost Baby himself. He has to know that Kogami was involved, and yet… he pins the blame for what happened on SOL.

So Specter probably does, too. I saw a mini theory a while ago, and I forgot who it was who said it (if anyone could help out, that’d be great), but the gist of it was that the “Knights of Hanoi” are… the Knights of Hanoi. As in, the Knights of the Hanoi Project’s victims. That the group exists in part to avenge them. 

I mean, I have my own ideas about Kogami’s true motives, but we won’t know for sure until we know. It’s possible that he may have done everything under duress. It’s also possible that he may have lied to Revolver and Specter about not actually being at fault. 

Whatever the case may be, if this is the case then of course Revolver and Specter wouldn’t blame him for it. Of course they would join his organization. Of course they’d want to destroy the ignises, the end result of their torture. Of course they’d think Playmaker was idiotic for helping the actual source of his trauma. 

And we might learn all of that next episode. I just… wish I could be more excited about it *is still intensely worried about Blue Angel*
