poly santos and garcia inviting mel and ellis over for dinner... ellis is pretty much immediately aware of the tension in the room, but mel is honestly just happy to be hanging out with her friends
ellis's hand tightens around her thigh under the table while mel just smiles between them like a puppy that's content to be the center of attention.
when garcia insists that mel has to try a bite of her food (offering it from her own fork), ellis shoots santos a "control your handler" kind of glare, and santos just shrugs. she knows better than anyone that garcia usually gets her hands on whatever shiny new thing she wants to play with.
and mel is doing so well, taking the bite of food right off her fork and giving her an honest review of the flavors, when garcia tells her she missed a little bit, and wipes some sauce away from the corner of her mouth with her thumb
"think maybe it's time we head home, don't you, mel?" ellis has her nice, polite smile on, even though she knows it isn't fooling anyone. definitely not santos, who tries to cover a scoff.
"what? no," there's real disappointment on mel's face, and ellis can't help but soften a little at those puppy dog eyes. she really has no idea. "I thought we were watching a movie."
garcia pushes her chair back, giving the two of them a minute to breathe. "we can definitely do that. help me clean these up, santos?" (it's not actually a question).
they're settled in the living room and halfway through the movie before things start to soften. santos might be the only one actually watching the movie, sitting at garcia's feet while garcia combs through her hair with her fingers. she eventually undoes her ponytail, and santos lets her head fall back against the couch cushion in relief.
garcia's eyes are fixed on the screen, but she doesn't need to be looking to know what she's doing. ellis can feel the surgeon's precision of her movements as she feeds single kernels of popcorn from the bowl between them into santos's mouth, fingers dragging up her jaw as she chews.
mel is nuzzled into her side, like she's hiding, or can't quite get close enough. she doesn't pretend to watch the movie. she watches santos, and the unsatisfyingly slow path of garcia's fingers back to the popcorn bowl.
"hungry?" ellis whispers, hands soothing over mel's side.
"mm? no, I'm fine." mel startles, tries to bury her face against ellis's shoulder.
"I don't think you can watch the movie like that, do you?" because she’d be lying if she said she didn’t want to see this play out
once mel is settled in her lap, it’s even more obvious that she isn’t paying attention to the movie. ellis thinks she sees garcia smile, but it could just be that little clench of her jaw when she’s focused. hard to say. but then she is bringing her fingers back to santos’s lips and telling her, “clean up for me,” in a soft, demanding tone that makes mel shudder.
ellis shushes her, hands steadying mel’s hips against her. she tucks her chin into mel’s shoulder.
garcia runs her thumb over santos’s bottom lip before she opens. tentative at first, sucking garcia’s fingers into her mouth, eyes heavy when she looks up at them. “there’s my girl.”
mel whines. her hips jerk, but ellis is there to steady her. easy. when she’s wringing her hands anxiously, ellis gives them something to do. easing them downward, where mel so obviously wants them.
“wanted to stay, didn’t you?” ellis breathes against her neck. “I was wondering how long it would take you to figure it out.”
Sooo I am opening up collabs! If you would like to write with me, feel free to hit me up! If you'd like your OC to be friends, lovers, rivals, enemies, etc. with mine, all you gotta do is lmk!!
I'm down to do long-form collabs or RP if that's more your speed. I'm down for PG13 as well as NSFW works. Personally, I am well-versed in NSFW stuff, but I don't want anyone to feel pressured if that's outside of your comfort zone.

I've had this collab idea since I was hanging out at my old blog. So, @chososdoll and I decided to team up and host it together for our joint milestone ! thank you everyone for following and supporting us up to now and I hope you have some fun with this theme 🕹️
(mdni banner by @benkeibear !)
How This Collab Works
If you've ever wanted to put your favourite characters into your favourite video games, now is your chance. Add a Jujutsu Kaisen character into Stardew Valley or a Blue Lock character into Resident Evil. As long as you're throwing your character into a video game reality, it fits the theme!
Rules
I’ve got a list of rules right here so read through them thoroughly before entering.
Minors do not interact. It’s not hard, please understand this is non negotiable.
When you post your work, please tag me or send it in an ask so that I can see it’s up and link it in the masterlist.
^ following on from this, please link this masterlist post in your completed piece.
All characters must be aged up.
If there’s anything you aren’t clear on, please don’t hesitate to message me with any questions you might have!
This collab is open to all anime fandoms ❤️🔥 I’m also allowing infinites of characters so if your character is gone, don't worry! You can still write for them. I'm sure everyone's stories will be unique so I'm not opposed to duplicate characters.
There is no due date for this collab! I just want this to be fun, relaxing, and something you can take part in whenever you're ready. There are so many collabs running all of the time and it can get overwhelming when you want to join every single one but worry about when they are due. That isn't a problem with this collab! Take your time and go at your own pace. I can't wait to see what you all come up with 💗

The raven-haired captain watched you as you fought with a member of company seven. Your hands were quick as you easily blocked their fists. Benimaru leaned into one of the posts that held the roof over the porch of the guardhouse. That’s when one of his fists snuck through, hitting you directly in the shoulder. “Keep your eyes open, Y/n! You’re leaving yourself defenseless when you lose your focus like that.”
You listened to his words and stood your ground. More fists flew toward you as you blocked each and every one of them. Benimaru’s voice was happier now. “That’s what I’m talking about.” That’s when you blew your flames from your hand out toward the man, he leapt backward just in time and you both stopped. Clapping came from the porch as you looked back over. “Good job, Y/n.” He stood up and walked toward you, nodding to the man that you had been training with. “That’s enough training for today. We’ll pick it back up tomorrow.”
As the man saluted to Benimaru and left you felt his eyes on you. “As for you, I’m not done with you.”
You swallowed hard and looked over at him. “What’s the matter? What did I do now?”
He chuckled at your words and shook his head. “No, that’s not what I want to talk to you about.” He let his head drop a little and cleared his throat. “I, uh- I was wondering if you wanted to go with me tonight to get some dinner?”
You were almost shocked by his words, had the Captain really just asked you out for dinner? “Captain Shinmon…” You hesitated before saying your next sentence, afraid of what his reaction might be, but deciding to do it anyway. “Are you… asking me on a date?”
His cheeks turned red as his eyes widened. “What? Why would you think that? I’m just… simply asking a comrade to get some dinner with me.”
The defensiveness in his voice made you think otherwise. “Are you sure about that, Cap-”
He cut you off as his tone changed, trying to make you stop talking. “Listen, brat, it’s dinner, nothing more.”
You chuckled as he waited for your answer. “Fine, I’ll get dinner with you. Oh, and- it’s not a date.”
* * * * * *
A knock on your door pulled your attention as you fixed your shirt. You walked toward the front door and grabbed the handle, opening it quickly. Benimaru stood before you, not in anything different than what he would usually wear. But despite him not getting any dressier, you liked it. As much as Benimaru didn’t want to admit it, you knew that he had asked you on a date.
His jaw almost dropped as he looked at you, catching himself at the last second, but you had caught it before he did. “You, uh, you look nice.”
A grin spread from ear to ear as you looked into his eyes. “Thank you, Captain Shinmon.”
Benimaru scratched the back of his head nervously and reached a hand out for you. “Come. I’ve got quite the night planned for us.”
You took his hand and walked forward, raising your eyebrows as you spoke. “But Captain, I thought that we were just getting dinner.”
Benimaru stopped and smiled. “When we’re not in the guardhouse, just call me Benimaru. Or Beni if you prefer.”
You followed him with your hand in his, butterflies filling your stomach as you realized that he wasn’t planning on letting go of your hand as you made your way into the city circle. There was a buzz all through the village, carts everywhere, vendors selling everywhere you looked. That’s when you realized just what day it was. The Summer Harvest Festival.
All the vendors in Asakusa would come forth on this day and sell the last of their harvest before it got too cold to grow anything else. Your eyes looked everywhere, lights hanging from the buildings to keep the walkways visible as the sun set, people talking everywhere you turned. It was like nothing you had ever seen before. You had never had the chance to come here like you’d always wished to.
Benimaru kept walking, letting you step in front of him as you made your way through the crowd. His hands rested lightly on your hips as he made sure that you didn’t get lost as you made your way to the nearest restaurant.
He raised his hand as you approached the host in the front of the establishment. They seated you quickly, dinner coming out more quickly than you had thought would have happened. Your food was delectable, every last bite met with amazing conversation as you bonded with him more than you had ever expected to.
As dinner wrapped up and Benimaru paid the bill you admired him. You had never seen this side of the Captain before and you were loving it. You had never thought that he could be this open and loving with someone.
Benimaru walked you out the door and kept your hand in his as he led you back through the town. You stopped at vendors and bought fresh fruits and vegetables as the night grew later and later. As the sun set and the sky turned dark, Benimaru turned to you. “Why don’t we get you back home before it gets too late? I can tell you’re getting tired.”
You hated to admit that you really were tired, but you nodded and went with him.
He climbed the steps of your front porch and helped you up, smiling as you stopped in front of him. Benimaru’s features changed, softened even more as he realized that you were waiting for him to do what he had been wanting to do all night. His lips moved closer and closer to you, patiently waiting to connect as you whined softly. That’s when he made his move. His lips touched yours and lingered together, your thoughts ran wild as you wished he had done this long ago.
As your lips parted and he stepped back slightly his hand touched your cheek, cupping it. “How could you make me do this, Y/n?”
You could feel your cheeks grow warm as you leaned into his touch. “What do you mean, Beni? Make you do what?”
Benimaru moved his other hand to your face and cupped it into them. “Make me love you. Love you more than I’ve ever loved anyone in my life.”
Those words made you coo, you had never truly admitted your feelings for Benimaru, not even to yourself. Benimaru pressed your lips to his again, taking in the moment as you both stood there together. Neither wanting to move from where you stood, never wanting the moment to end. The perfect end to a perfect date, that wasn’t really a date.
