You grew up in a sorcerer family. Not one of the great clans, but a small one with respect and decent standing in the jujutsu community. You didn't end up getting one of your clan's inherited techniques, but rather your father's cursed technique, first in the family — Connection. Your first neural link was with him, established by him, and your family wonders if you awakened the Connection cursed technique because of that. You got to experience a happy and normal childhood, as your parents didn't want to pressure you into becoming a sorcerer. But you wanted to anyway, because your father and many of your other relatives are sorcerers. So you joined Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, and met the one and only Gojo Satoru who would change your life (but not in the way you expected).
Cursed Technique: Connection
You can create a neural link with any sentient being that has cursed energy ( meaning sorcerers and even curses) by imbuing them with some of your cursed energy. Your technique is basically telepathy - You can communicate with your marked targets through the neural link. It is easier for you to send messages or images to the other party than for you to receive them, but it is still manageable for you when they are within your city-wide range. If they are too far, you are only able to send simple messages to them. You can block the other party's side of the link so they cannot send you anything through the link (good for distracting curses during battle as support). The neural link also means that you can pinpoint the location of your marked targets as long as they are within your range.
Your ideal match is…Gojo Satoru!
♡ Gojo would be drawn to your mysteriousness, wanting to crack that distant and reserved demeanor of yours and discover what lies behind it. Which means he annoyed the absolute shit out of you for attention. It is likely that you were part bothered by his antics, part interested because he's your type. Also, anyone would be at least a little flattered by the attention. Especially when it comes from the famous Gojo Satoru.
♡ At first he was just blindly throwing questions and comments at you, but once he mentioned Digimon, you perked up with interest. The both of you started talking about games from there and managed to bond further through playing video game together in his room!
♡ The both of you complement each other in the opposites attract way. He is soothed by your kind and helpful personality, learns to process his negative emotions with your guidance, as well as have some manners and consideration for others. On the other hand, his logical way of thinking rubs off on you. You may be prone to bouts of melancholy and overthinking, but he pulls you out of them with his cheerfulness.
♡ The both of you have a bad habit of growing distant sometimes and then trying to make up for it with gifts. At least that means that there would be an understanding between the both of you? Gojo doesn't have many genuine connections in his life, so he would be possessive of you too. Especially when he feels like he hasn't gotten enough quality time with you recently and sees you hanging out with other people.
♡ Besides video games, the both of you also bond over books and knowledge! You like history and science, and he knows a lot of maths because of his cursed technique. Exchange of information between nerds ensues. He likes that you have your own areas of interest that allow you to challenge him intellectually. He loves learning from you, especially when you whip out the fun facts. Make it snappy.
♡ Gojo is happy to receive love however you like to give it! One of the fastest ways to his heart is to give him sweets. Bonus points if you get something trendy or popular for him before he had time to get it for himself. He is the clingy type 80% of the time, and appreciates any quality time he can get with you when his schedule allows for it. Even then there's no guarantee that he won't skip some meetings with the higher ups so he can have lunch with you. As for words of affirmation, he tends to receive them with pride, all smug and pleased with himself. Except for the times when you say something that hits his soft spots and gets him flustered or melting under your now amused gaze.
♡ Gojo is stingy with the usual words of affirmation, preferring to tease you over giving compliments and praise. Makes the occasional "good job" from him all the more precious. It feels like you earned it properly. But that isn't too say he hardly gives words of affirmation. He can be surprisingly...romantic? For every couple's pet name (baby, honey etc) he calls you, he throws in something more intimate when referring to you while talking to someone. My treasured one, my deepest love.
Nerds who don't seem like nerds, losing books in each other's collections, heavy flirting that makes everyone within a 10 foot radius of the both of you roll their eyes, inside jokes, you playing the guitar for him, video games, arcade dates, competitive banter, debates that end in play fighting on the couch, clothes shopping together, dozens of selfies whenever you both come across a rack of sunglasses, stealing food from each other, sharing desserts, walking around with him clinging to your back like a koala, blue and orange
A/N: You could have joined Tokyo tech either as a local student or exchange student for an exchange program. I left it ambiguous so it can better fit your narrative. ⸂⸂⸜(രᴗര๑)⸝⸃⸃
Blessings and curses, the two sides of a coin, you can't have one without the other. Not everyone can say they were given a blessing from an angel, not everyone who is given an Angel's blessing lives or even realizes they are given a blessing. The Angels seek you out. You don't seek them.
The day you realized you got an angel's blessing was a terrifying day. It all started out as normal can be until you bumped into a kid asking for help. Being a kind person, you knelt down to ask how you can help. But as you did that someone yelled behind you “to get away”. You turned around to the voice, not seeing the ‘kid’ you were about to help turn into a monstrous humanoid. It goes to attack you, but a soft gold light emits from your body protecting you. The person who yelled at you went between you and the monster to protect you from it. A girl helped you up and took you a bit away from the fight. In a blink, the monster was slain. The guy grabbed a lighter and told you to look into it. He blew the lighter out, and it didn't work. So, the mission for the day was concluded there.
You were brought to Darkwick, having a quick check up with Professor Nicolas. You were brought to Chancellor Cornelius to talk about what to do. You explained that you have no idea how you were able to protect yourself from the anomaly. You were made to take a stigma test. It was frightening, but results came in. You weren't a ghoul or had a stigma. What you are is similar to the two but different, like how darkness was different from light. But what they did know was that you were still human.
It was decided that you would join Darkwick. It was broadcasted by a Masterpiece Newscaster, that you would be joining Jabberwock as a special admissions student. You are also on paper a ghoul until they can figure out exactly what you are.
Powers/Weapon
Flight: Angel Wings can sprout from your back. They are white with flecks of gold in them.
Barrier/ Holy Light: A soft gold like light can emit around you, protecting anything hostile around you. The barrier feels warm to those who don't intend to cause you harm.
Purification: Can subdue curses and anomalies for a short period of time. This does cause strain if you use it after the time period.
Immunity to Mesmer Matches: This is an effect from the barrier since it detects Mesmer Matches as harmful.
Sigma(Blessing): Erchub- You can heal a designated part of a person by putting your hands on the wound.
Special Artifact
Lyre - When you play, the lyre plants will grow
Specific Nicknames
Chapter Title (if ingame): Angel
Rui: Rose, My Rose, Rosebud, My Sweet Petal
Lyca: Rose Lady
Ed: Angelica Beauty
House
Jabberwock
You were put into Jabberwock because of your motherly nature, loyalty, and love for plants and animals. You became the mother of Jabberwock, helping Haru wherever he needs it. You have a 100% record on calming down any of the anomalous animals if any of them are agitated.
Romantic Matchup
Rui Mizuki
You arrived at Obscuray House to bring Haru back to Jabberwock with how he was ‘texting’ you. You had a feeling that Haru probably wouldn't be able to safely get himself back to Jabberwock. It was the first time Rui saw you instead of what he had heard second hand. He was smitten to the point he stopped cleaning the glass he was cleaning to watch you walk out with Haru. The appearance of the Like Dove told him everything. He developed a seedling crush on you at that moment.
The next day, after Haru got sober, you did ask him about Rui. You didn't really know much about him. Haru does explain that Rui is also a ghoul who's also a reaper, and you were left with that because Haru went to start waking up Ren.
After that, your day went virtually pretty normal, taking care of the animals, going to class, helping with the safari tour, and checking on the animals after the tour. When you went to check on the animal supplies, you noticed you were getting low on some of the food. You told Haru you're going to go check the campus store. After checking the campus store for food, you ran into Rui. It was brief, but he did give you a little flirt.
After many other small run-ins with a little flirting on the side and Edward flirting with you. Rui finally confessed to you that he had a crush on you, and you accepted it.
Rui secretly tried to grow roses for you. After many tries, he was successful and gave them to you.
He would learn vegan recipes for you so he can cook for you.
He doesn't know chess that well, only the basics, but he learned how to play it so he can play with you.
Rui would patch up any garments for you, especially if that garment is one you love.
It was you who did the first kiss because you just learned you can subdue curses, Rui was freaked when you killed him, scared that he may have killed you, but nope, you were there alive.
Your dates would include walking around the Obscuray garden. You also sometimes tend to the garden with him. You also sometimes just hang around Obscuary as a date. Some people are worried for you because Rui is a known flirt, but he did stop most of flirting once you two go together.
Relationship
Lyca Colt
He was initially scared of you, but you kept your distance from him. If he wanted to get to know you, you let him do it at his own pace. When you two finally met was when you were waiting for Rui in the Obscuary foyer. Lyca sniffed you saying you smelled pretty. After that and your frequent visits to Obscuary Lyca became a big brother figure to you. By your side when he came be.
Edward “Ed” Hart
He flirted with you so Rui would either confess to you or not. If Rui didn't confess, he would have tried to shoot his shot with you, but now you're with Rui. So he still kinda flirts with you when Rui isn't around. Since he's so old, he has had an experience with someone like you. He does sorta explains it to you about what you are. You were blessed by an angel. That was about it.
Subaru Kagami
He heard about you in passing until one day you were eating lunch on the terrace. The only seat left was next to you, so he sat down, and after a while, a conversation started up. Later on, he heard about you from Lyca, about how you're so nice and patient with him. Subaru started to feel something, but he was sure about the feeling. Until one day, during lunch again, he sat next to you again and talked again. He now understands the feeling. He has a crush on you.
Haru Sagara
He is extremely happy to have another helping hand at Jabberwock. Peekaboo has been trying, and I mean trying to get you two together, Haru always laughs it off because Peekaboo is just a toddler who sees you as his mother. You do heal him when he hurts himself using his stigma. You make sure he's okay after he drinks himself under the table. He’s extremely grateful to have you around.
Jin Kamuri
He met you through Luna (MC), and she mentioned that you like chess and maybe a good opponent for him. So you ended up playing a game of chess with him, and you were able to beat him. So you and him have a weekly chess game. He respects you as a person and finds you calming as well. You are one of the only people who has been able to break his walls down. He also doesn't use as much profanity around you.
MC(Luna)
She is happy she has a girl to hang out with. Even though you were signed to Jabberwock house, she was the one to show you around the school because is the ghoul's inspector and also it was easier this way for you two to get to know each other. You do spend some time in Clementia with her either having a girl's day or just hanging out. On missions, you are by her side when you can be.
Oh, psychology, multidisciplinary field that you are.
Sometimes you’re not sure if you’re actually a declared psychology major or if you’re just taking a bunch of generals for credits. Some semesters make more sense than others! This particular semester, your schedule includes courses on cognition, social psychology, statistics, and creative writing. Your career prospects are still a little vague and uncertain at this point, but you have a decent amount of time before graduation to think about it more. For now, you’ll study what interests you! The answer of what exactly you want to do with your future (and how) will surely become clear in time.
One particular afternoon, you’re tucked away in a corner of the library, laptop open and a notebook full of notes sitting off to the side. Needing a mental break from all the studying and homework but not wanting to play around on your phone, you decide to sift through your school email to clear out your inbox. Unread, sitting at the top, are a few submission confirmations for online assignments, an email from one professor reminding everyone about the upcoming exam next week… and an extra credit opportunity in your statistics class? Since you do so well in your classes on a regular basis, you don’t need the extra credit, but it doesn’t hurt to check them out here and there. Besides, some of them are pretty fun and interesting.
Your eyes skim over the email from your statistics professor, a simple “this is an opportunity for those of you who are interested” along with a forwarded attachment from the Japan Football Union. Apparently, they’ve put together a rather extensive program to train and develop young athletes—and it’s a big enough program that they require a solid staff. The JFU is hiring established professionals, of course, but they are also opening up the program for internships directed at younger folks who want to get their foot in the door and get some experience before they graduate and enter the workforce. They’re looking to place people in a few different areas, and one such role (the one pertinent to your current statistics class and the one that catches your eye the most) is a data analyst.
The email is a bit vague about the full scope of the responsibilities and logistics, so you’re not quite sure what to expect, but your curiosity has been piqued nonetheless. This certainly isn’t your run-of-the-mill opportunity, both in terms of career and extra credit for a class. After weighing the pros and cons, you decide to fill out their application. It asks for descriptions of your strengths and weaknesses, what you’re studying, and if you’ve had the chance to participate in similar programs or jobs. You dutifully type your answers out before submitting them, keeping your expectations reasonable but still hoping for the best.
About a week later, you receive an email.
You have been selected for the BLUE LOCK data analyst internship.
This is a role designed to introduce individuals to recording and reviewing biometric data and performance of our athletes. Interns in this position will be working closely with the head of the program. We have reviewed your application and decided that you would be a good candidate. If you are interested in this opportunity, please report to the following location, [ADDRESS], at [TIME] on [DATE].
We hope you will accept this offer. Any further questions or concerns will be addressed on-site on the specified date.
- Japan Football Union
The onboarding process is hectic, especially since you do have to juggle this with the rest of your coursework, but you’re determined to see this through. Most of the learning curve stems from getting familiar with all the programs and technology being used, what numbers to look for and where, and what needs to be organized—the math and monitoring by themselves shouldn’t be too difficult once you know what to look for. The heads of the program, Ego and Anri, are certainly an interesting duo, though, so your evenings and weekends at the Blue Lock facility certainly won’t bore you.
— TASKS
✦ Data entry -> Much of this is automated (the Blue Lock program must have an insane budget, because a lot of the technology they utilize is highly advanced and new to you), but it is still best for human eyes to be on these numbers and making sure they are being entered in the correct spaces. It is probably the most tedious part of your job, but necessary for everything else to flow smoothly.
✦ Creating charts and graphs -> Numerical data is hard for most people to properly process without visuals, and these graphs are helpful for Ego and Anri as well as the ones funding this whole endeavor. Ego thinks this type of task is below his paygrade and Anri has her hands incredibly full with pretty much everything else, so this falls on your shoulders. That said, it is only natural since you’re the one doing a lot of the data entry anyways.
✦ Keep updated logs on players’ stats, training, and habits -> Biometric data is automatically collected into the system, and it’s not hard to pull that data into an individual’s chart; practice and official matches are video recorded, though you do try to attend them in person when you can. However, not everything is caught on video—the boys do have some privacy—so any other information you might need about workouts and mental status are gathered through direct interviews with each individual.
— EGO COLOR -> Midnight blue.
A deep, rich shade of blue. Blue in general is often associated with intelligence, serenity, and integrity. Midnight blue is a more mysterious and regal shade of blue, not as in-your-face as others; it suits your introspective, contemplative nature. Standing out isn’t really your thing, but at the same time you command a certain amount of attention. You know who you are and what you stand for—or, at least, you’re always in the process of figuring such things out—and making connections with others requires presenting a part of yourself to them. No one in this world is without some sort of presence, and while yours may come off as quiet to most, it is still quite distinct. Your ego manifests as this shade because of your desire to expand and utilize your intelligence and introspectiveness to succeed in your goals.
YOUR MATCH IS…
✧ OLIVER AIKU
✦ REASONING ->
The friendly, pleasant team captain has layers. Responsible and welcoming at first glance, carefree and fun-loving at second glance, with a slightly bitter, responsible, self-aware base. He would do well with someone who can peel back those layers on their own and not judge him for appearing differently in public vs in private.
When you put aside Oliver's casual relationship and womanizer tendencies, he's really quite mature and thoughtful. He has his passions and dreams, but he isn't blindly optimistic about them—hence why he played defender instead of striker for so long, until he saw an opportunity to change up his perspective and playstyle through Blue Lock. Both of you are level-headed realists, sharing grounded perspectives; neither of you would necessarily NEED to rein in the other. That said, you might have the slightest lean towards pessimism... but Oliver has the slightest lean towards optimism.
Oliver is a solid conversationalist and does well with both listening and talking. He may not necessarily be one of the characters labelled as studious or intellectual, he certainly isn't an "all brawn no brains" type either. He's a strategic risk-taker and enjoys mental stimulation. If you're talking about a topic he isn't very familiar with, he's very good about listening to absorb as much as he can and asking questions when he needs further clarification.
He is quite stable emotionally. Relationships that consist of two people who tend to be more sensitive and volatile can be difficult to navigate sometimes; having a balance here tends to work out a bit better in many cases! While Oliver can be a bit blunt and tactless in his words, he isn't emotionally unintelligent. He seems to be well-liked as a captain by his teammates, and he was able to find a way to stabilize the upset when Sae and Shido temporarily joined the Japan U-20 team. He would be able to keep you steady when you're overwhelmed, anxious, or down—and your connection to, and awareness of, your emotions helps create an environment where Oliver feels more comfortable being vulnerable when he isn't able to remain strong anymore.
You can be a bit of a wallflower in social situations, but Oliver can easily act as your buffer. He's more outgoing and comfortable navigating the public, but he's not overbearingly social or energetic. Going out with him for dates and other excursions is really quite nice!
Oliver likes to have fun. He enjoys keeping things lighthearted and relaxed. It's something that grows on you; you're overall just a bit more serious than he is, often lost in your thoughts and focused on introspection. He would never want you to change those habits of yours, especially as your ability to self-reflect is admirable to him, but his insistence on enjoying time (individually or togther) helps break those moments up for you a little bit. His presence can help keep you grounded and provides some good perspective.
— FIRST MEETING -> Your first meeting is brief and rather uneventful. It can’t be helped; the Blue Lock vs. Japan U-20 match is nearly underway and neither of you have the time to just stop and chit-chat with a stranger. You’ve been running around helping with some of the final preparations (nothing that pertains to your official job description at all), and you’re now making your way back to the lounge designated for the Blue Lock team and staff, your trusty notebook and tablet (which are necessary for your job) tucked under your arm. Against better judgement, you’re rushing a bit—the stadium is large and sprawling, and you must admit that you don’t know the layout all that well.
Just as you round a corner, you skid to a stop with a gasp; the “wall” clad in a black zip-up jacket that you nearly bumped into flinches in surprise but also manages to stop. However, your previous momentum causes the tablet tucked beneath your arm to slip free. The smooth aluminum slips from your fingertips as your panicked attempt to grab it only serves to launch it up into the air.
“Oh!” The figure in front of you catches it, two large hands miraculously preventing the tablet from leaping to its death. “That was close. Here you go.”
He passes the device to you and you heave a big, relieved sigh. “Thanks. Hey, sorry about that, by the way.” You glance up at the young man’s face. Distinct heterochromatic eyes and two-toned hair, an easy grin and stubble on his chin. You recognize him—over the last week you’ve been staring at this face a lot. Just photos and videos, of course, as you studied the Japan U-20 team’s players and playstyles. Oliver Aiku, captain and defender.
“Don’t worry about it. You’re okay, right?” Oliver tilts his head as he asks, giving you a once-over. It’s not a flirty glance but rather one of calm observation; his gaze lingers on the blue jacket you’re wearing with the Blue Lock logo emblazoned on the front.
“I am,” you answer, your eyes catching sight of the time on the tablet as you adjust your hold on it and your notebook, stacking them together. “Oh—I need to go. Bye, and good luck with the match!”
Rushing off, you don’t see the perplexed raised brow of Oliver’s as he realizes you must have recognized him.
— BONDING -> The two of you start to interact more frequently after Blue Lock takes over as the new Japan U-20 team. You’re busier than ever with your work; with the integration of the original U-20 team and the initiation of the NEL phase, you have that much more data to collect and organize. Thankfully you only need to oversee those who are part of Blue Lock and none of the guests, but it’s rather hectic with everyone splitting off onto different teams and branching out into new skills and positions.
The relationship between you and Oliver grows slowly but steadily. Oliver is charismatic and social, which helps smooth over any awkwardness that might arise from you being more introverted. Your work may require you to chat with him every once in a while, but you find that conversation flows quite naturally between you two.
While he enjoys indulging in a bit of risk-taking behavior when it comes to gambling and relationships, Oliver is first and foremost calm, rational, and realistic. He has a good head on his shoulders, and he’s quite strategic when it comes to his plays. His passion for football is very clear to you, which is one of the first things about him that catches your eye. The other big thing that you notice about him, especially when compared to his peers, is that he’s rather levelheaded and mature for a nineteen year old guy. Off the pitch, he doesn’t go out of his way to stand out and draw a lot of attention to himself—though he does attract quite a bit of attention without even trying.
As for him, he is drawn to the blend of intelligence and emotional sensitivity that makes up the core of your personality. He is someone that can appreciate both your mind and your heart, regardless if they’re working together or picking fights with each other at a given moment. Oliver is steady and is neither overly optimistic or overly pessimistic, so he balances out the side of you that tends to be more pessimistic and critical.
— PINING -> Oliver falls first, which isn’t all that surprising when looking at his track record. He clearly enjoys connecting with people, whether platonically or romantically. He has also indicated that he prefers to be the one to make the first move to try to get the other party to fall for him—so it’s not just the act of falling in love that he enjoys, but the chase too. He also falls harder, compared to the way that you very slowly develop an attachment to him.
The thing that might put some people off of him is his flirty womanizer habits; for anyone looking for a serious relationship, they’re likely to be cautious around him. This isn’t something that bothers you very much initially, simply because you don’t see him in a romantic light for a while—but once the first inklings of feelings start burrowing into your heart, you also find yourself doubting if a relationship with him would work out. When it comes to potential partners, you generally don’t gravitate towards those who enjoy casual dating. That’s all fine and well for people who are interested in those types of relationships, but you’re looking for something with a little more depth.
However, it turns out that isn’t something you’ll actually have to worry about very much! The bond that Oliver develops with you feels different from most of his previous relationships, because it simply isn’t as casual as all the other times he has fallen for someone. This is a bond that has been steadily built brick by brick from friendship into something more intimate. He is a bit of a yearner, honestly, and frequently finds himself admiring you—from your physical features to your skills to your little habits. For a man who has so far treated all of his relationships as fun lighthearted flings, he can’t help but imagine settling into something more serious with you.
— CONFESSION -> Some people take their time building up to a confession, whether they’re simply unsure if they’re ready for a relationship or they’re terrified of ruining what they currently have. Oliver, however, is willing to take that leap once he recognizes that he is interested in you. Amusingly enough, he confesses too early once (simply asks you out on a date, actually, rather than a proper confession of feelings) and you turn him down gently but firmly. He handles rejection gracefully and is able to smooth things over, so it doesn’t feel awkward afterwards; you also try not to dwell too much on it, making the assumption that he may have been half-joking when he asked you out anyway.
But some time later, after both of you have gotten more familiar with each other and romantic attraction has had a chance to start budding for both of you, Oliver confesses to you again. A proper confession this time, though he does try not to be too heavy-handed about it considering he already asked you out once and he doesn’t want to seem like someone who can’t take no for an answer.
— DATES -> Given his dating history, it’s to be expected that Oliver has some skill in putting together a solid date. He is definitely someone who enjoys getting out of the house and staying busy, but he doesn’t necessarily need to do high-energy dates all the time either. This works out quite well with you! You’ve got a bit of an adventurous streak in you, yet you also appreciate a nice relaxing night in. He would really enjoy the late night impromptu dates as you both decide to stock up on snacks from a convenience store, and leisurely walks through the park just hit differently at night (if he had a car, a late night drive would absolutely be right up his alley).
— LOVE LANGUAGES -> Oliver is an attentive, affectionate, and playful-but-surprisingly-mature partner. He is definitely a provider and he really enjoys spoiling and taking care of his partner. Small acts of service are a daily occurrence, things like making a cup of coffee or tea for you or making sure your books are properly bookmarked and set to the side somewhere safe when you’re not actively reading them. Spoiling you includes gifts, and he tends to offer to pay for the majority of your things whenever you two go on little shopping dates together. Still, he thinks it’s very sweet whenever you decide to bestow gifts upon him and he can’t help the adoring grin on his face. Quality time is something that he very much appreciates—he is of the mindset that if he has a partner, he wants to enjoy their company as much as possible.
If you’re slow to warm up to physical touch, that’s fine by him. Oliver might default to touch himself, but he’s genuinely fine letting you set the pace. That said, if you initiate any cuddling sessions, you do have a hard time wriggling away from him.
✦ ADDITIONAL HEADCANONS ->
Oliver loves spicy food, so you two are definitely the couple with very different orders whenever the two of you hit up a restaurant for ramen or hotpot.
On the flip side, Oliver isn’t a big fan of chocolate! He’ll happily give you his share of anything that he finds a bit too chocolatey for his tastes.
With his experience as captain, he has gotten his fair share of experience in conflict resolution. Confrontation terrifies you, but you have little to worry about when it comes to Oliver. His communication skills are solid. While he does have a bit of a stubborn streak, he is also quite self aware and can keep himself humble. Even when emotions run high, he’s not the type to lash out. If needed, he makes sure you both get some time to cool off before approaching the issue again.
If you enjoy having photos taken of you during dates (whether it’s just you or both you and Oliver), he is your guy! Candid, posed, whatever—he has a talent for it. Imagine how gorgeous the photos from any aquarium dates would be!
✧ RELATIONSHIP WITH…
— KARASU TABITO -> Your primary runner-up, and eventually one of your closest friends within Blue Lock. When you first meet him, he rubs you the wrong way just a tiny bit—it’s the way he often complains about minor things that don’t go his way, miscellaneous nitpicking, and how he often talks down about others even unprompted. Still, you have to admit that his observations about the other players are rather astute, and it shows in the way he’s able to shut his opponents down so quickly. Karasu certainly is a solid strategist on the field, and you acknowledge that his perceptiveness could be on par with yours.
The two of you just seem to “get” each other effortlessly given your similar personalities and skillsets, but the two of you are also different enough that you keep each other interested. Sarcastic teasing is a very common occurrence between you two, to the point where it’s nearly impossible to have a conversation without at least one jab being thrown. If you’re stuck at the Blue Lock facility, wanting to socialize a bit but not wanting to drain your social battery, Karasu is the one you most often gravitate towards. Outside of Blue Lock, he’s someone you enjoy meeting at a café every once in a while to chat and people watch. Karasu has the bad luck of his feelings towards you being a slow burn, not really noticeable until after you’ve already gotten together with Aiku. It’s unfortunate, but he views the situation with an “it is what it is” mindset.
— MIKAGE REO -> Your secondary runner-up. At first glance, he’s social, charismatic, confident, and a bit friendlier than the average Blue Lock participant. His sociable nature and well-rounded intellectualism keep your conversations with him smooth and engaging, and he’s very cooperative whenever you need to update his data sets. He actually rather likes being able to go over your findings with you, since he wants to optimize his abilities as much as humanly possible. Soccer ambitions aside, you two get along well and he’s able to bring out the more silly side of your personality quite easily! You each have your passions and you’re highly supportive of each other, even if those ambitions are very different. Reo develops a crush on you very early on but does his best to stamp it down and hide it. You both are far too busy to be entertaining a serious romantic relationship with each other.
(Not that you revel in the genuine distress of others, but you find that Reo is incredibly interesting to witness when he has his falling out with Nagi during the Second Selection. The shift in his personality is drastic and unstable, and for a while it’s actually rather hard to guess how he’ll act towards Nagi moving forward. When you have the time, you make sure to check in on him and lend him an ear so he can try and process his thoughts.)
— ISAGI YOICHI -> Isagi is almost like an annoying younger brother to you (though perhaps a little sweeter than your average younger sibling). Whenever you’re around the facility, he often approaches you to ask about your observations and analyses about him, so he can figure out what he needs to work on next. He is doing his best to climb the ranks and he’ll use any resource available to him! He is very much like Reo in this regard, but Isagi is much more… persistent. Honestly, all the numbers and some of the graphs confuse him, so he’d be forever grateful if you helped to explain them to him. (You feel a bit bad, but sometimes you try to hide from him if you don’t feel up to his barrage of questions). You find how he acts on the pitch vs. off the pitch to be hilarious, but you do like the fact that he’s quite friendly when he’s not in sports mode. He might be a bit awkward with your first few interactions, but he becomes more comfortable eventually!
— OTOYA EITA -> You start to encounter him more often after he and Karasu become friends. You have a “friend of a friend” type of relationship with him, cordial but you’re not particularly close—the only time you really interact with him is if he and Karasu are already hanging out together and you stop by for a quick chat. Otoya is… Well, he’s fine, you suppose. He’s a bit lackadaisical for your tastes and conversations can feel a bit shallow, but he’s not actually that unpleasant to be around. Every so often he makes a vague attempt at flirting with you, similar to the way he got a bit handsy with Chigiri; you’re pretty, and when he hasn’t seen the light of the sun outside the Blue Lock facility in a while he gets a bit stir crazy and decides you’re the prettiest one around to flirt with. It’s usually met by an eyeroll from both you and Karasu. (He is your biggest fan on the rare chance that you wear makeup. Seriously, heart eyes).
— JULIAN LOKI -> The master striker that catches your eye the most! Loki is a bit hard to get a read on since he’s very outwardly composed the majority of the time; you don’t interact with him often, but you have your eye on him! If you ever get the chance to converse with him more, you would likely get along with him rather well (though you may not become very close, given the fact that you two don’t have many shared interests). He’s mature and polite, not to mention that he’s incredibly skilled and has accomplished a lot for his age—so you do find that his data is interesting to compare to your dear Blue Lock boys. You swing by practice sessions sometimes and he seems quite intrigued in your work and analyses; perhaps your data will be helpful for him as he tries to figure out how best to train the Blue Lockers that have temporarily joined PXG. (Ooh, but how delightful it is to see his pleasant composure drop when Isagi manages to get him to snap later on! Turns out his pride can flare into arrogance when his buttons are pushed!)
A/N: Thank you so much for doing an exchange with me, this was a lot of fun to make! If you want anything changed or added, let me know and we can figure something out :)

This spell fits you the most considering your personality!
Your Dorm
🌊Octavinelle🐠
You surprising fit into this dorm in a natural way, even at first glance it seems like most of the dorm are for the manipulative or business-minded people, but if you happen to look a little deeper there’s a reason why you fit here: you’re love for the sea, the habit of collecting seashells… it seems like you already fit in right here! Your dorm mates would be attached to you instantly!
Sibling
Silver Vanrouge
You and Silver work well as siblings because the bruh of your temperaments are sooo similar! you both are gentle, quiet, and thoughtful people who prefer calm environments over chaotic ones… Your shy nature and tendency to keep yourself mirrors Silver’s soft-spoken and polite demeanor. The relationship with you two revolves around being each others comfort person whenever the both of you are feeling down. Silver is someone who would make sure you’re safe, like walking you home and listening to your struggles, which he listens with all ears and an open heart. You both would have many quiet but peaceful conversations and feel completely safe enough to tell each other your secrets that many people would not know about the two of you.
Best Friend
Deuce Spade
You and Deuce would make really good friends! Especially at the beginning of you arriving to Twisted Wonderland. He’s very loyal, and tries his hardest to be a good person, which is something you may admire from the beginning! While you may feel shy around others at first, being around Deuce makes your awkwardness fade away and would make you feel more comfortable opening up to him sooner. Your relationship with each other later on is all about encouraging the both of you, Deuce would make sure that you believe in yourself and you would support his determination to grow and improve. Your kindness and emotional empathy helps keep him grounded during his hard times. You both always say study and tutor together, talk about your small achievements, etc. Deuce would fiercely protect you if anyone dared to treat you badly, he wants to make sure that you’re safe and you know that you’re valued.
Rival
Vil Schoenheit
You and Vil have very different personalities (in my opinion at least). Vil is someone who’s more confident in himself while you tend to doubt yourself and struggle with insecurities. Vil may find your lack of self-confidence a bit frustrating, especially because he’s someone who sees so much potential in you and your talents that you may not be fully embracing. I feel like you would be quite intimidated by Vil’s strong presence and high expectations. However your rivalry with Vil would push you to grow stronger, and since Vil is someone who strongly believes in refinement and improvement, he would challenge you to take yourself more seriously and stop hiding your abilities. And surprisingly, your sincerity and emotional sensitivity might remind him that vulnerability isn’t weakness. Your rivalry with Vil would be less about hostility and more about personal growth, Vil is pushing you to become stronger while you subtly soften his rigid perfectionism.
Relationships (Platonic)
Idia Shroud
You and Idia would have a surprisingly comfortable relationship built on shared introvision. The both of you prefer quiet environments and can feel overwhelmed by large groups of people, so the bruh of you would naturally gravitate towards each other spending time together in calmer settings. Idia might initially communicate with you more easily through messages or shared hobbies rather than face to face conversation, which actually suits your shy personality. The both of you would bond over anime, fantasy stories, or quieting batheing in each others presence without the pressure of having to talk constantly. Your kindness and non-judgmental nature would make Idia feel accepted, and since Idia understands what social anxiety is he would be very patient with you during your awkward moments.
Jade Leech
Jades calm and observant personality pairs well with your gentle demeanor in a platonic dynamic. Jade is very perspective and he would quickly notice your sincerity and emotional sensitivity. While Jade may be mysterious and slightly intimidating to others, he tends to respect people who are genuine and thoughtful, aka someone like you. Your politeness and kindness would immediately earn his quiet approval. Your interactions with Jade involve calm conversations, perhaps about the nature and the ocean, something of your interests. Jade also may lightly tease you just to observe your reactions, but never in a way that’ll leave you with hurt feelings. In return, you would most likely appreciate his composed and reliable presence, making your friendship with Jade feel oddly peaceful despite Jade’s enigmatic nature.
Floyd Leech
Floyd’s chaotic personality creates a fun contrast with your quiet and shy nature. While you may initially find him overwhelming, Floyd tends to enjoy people who react genuinely to him rather than trying to control him. Your honest emotions and kindness would intrigue him, and he might find your reactions amusing in a harmless way. Over time, Floyd is someone who may become oddly protective of you, seeing you as someone fragile but interesting. Your friendship with Floyd would be unpredictable, sometimes chaotic when Floyd drags you into random situations, but other times surprisingly gentle when he decides to sit quietly with you. You might also be one of the few people who can calm Floyd simply by being soft-spoken and sincere.
Love Match and Headcanons
Azul Ashengrotto
☆彡 Azul secretly melts from your affection… Your love language is physical touch, and Azul is not used to that level of gentle affection. The first time you casually hug him from behind or runs your fingers through his hair, he completely freezes. His brain short-circuits for a moment because he’s so used to transactional relationships that unconditional affection confuses him. Eventually, though, he starts quietly craving those moments.
☆彡 He gives you constant reassurance since you appreciates words of affirmation and struggle with insecurity, Azul naturally fills that role. He’s incredibly articulate, so he often compliments you in very sincere but eloquent ways. Instead of simple praise, he’ll say things like how your kindness improves the atmosphere around you or how your singing has remarkable emotional depth. His compliments feel genuine because he chooses his words carefully.
☆彡 You are one of the few people who sees his vulnerable side. Azul hides his past insecurities behind confidence and business savvy, but your empathetic nature makes it easier for him to open up. When he does talk about his fears or old insecurities you listen quietly and comfort him without judging. Those moments make him trust you more than almost anyone else.
☆彡 You visits the Mostro Lounge often… you frequently stops by the lounge to see him, even if you’re just quietly sitting at a table writing in l your diary while Azul works. Azul pretends he’s too busy to notice, but he absolutely notices every time you come in.
☆彡 He gets extremely protective of you because you can be trusting or a bit gullible, Azul becomes very protective in subtle ways. If someone tries to manipulate or take advantage of your kindness, he immediately intervenes. No one messes with someone Azul cares about, especially someone who is his equal and soulmate.
☆彡He loves hearing you sing when Azul first hears you singing opera or jazz, he’s stunned. He’s very musically inclined and appreciates artistry, so he naturally becomes one of your biggest supporters. Sometimes he even asks you to sing privately in the lounge for him after closing hours.
☆彡 You play with his hair constantly since you’re somebody who likes physical affection, you often absentmindedly play with his hair when the both of you are sitting together. Azul pretends to complain at first, but he secretly finds it extremely relaxing.
☆彡 He buys you plushies, since you are someone who likes plushies Azul absolutely notices that. Occasionally he’ll “coincidentally” obtain a cute plush and give it to you claiming it’s just leftover merchandise or something trivial, but he clearly chose it with you in mind.
☆彡 Quiet ocean dates are quite often because Azul noticed you love the ocean, Azul sometimes takes you somewhere quiet near the water at night. It’s one of the few places where he feels calm, and seeing you fascinated by the sea makes those moments very peaceful for him.
☆彡 You help him soften emotionally… Azul tends to approach relationships strategically, but you remind him that not everything needs to be calculated. Your sincerity slowly helps him trust people more.
☆彡He encourages you to be confident… Azul sees potential in you that you may not always recognize in yourself. Whether it’s your singing, creativity, or kindness, he gently pushes you to believe in your abilities, because he truly believes that you should not be insecure in yourself, not around him.
☆彡 Your relationship with each other is surprisingly gentle. Even though Azul can be manipulative in business, his relationship with you is one of the few parts of his life that isn’t transactional. With you, he chooses sincerity.
(preface, some of this might be a bit inconsistent with the original… but even my favorite published author doesn’t know what he wrote in half of his books so i decided that would just have to be okay, plus im sure you wont mind)
Emerald-
Malleus Draconia found you to be very sweet from the moment he first met you. When you visited Diasomnia, trailing closely beyond Silver and taking in the intricate decor with a look of awe, he immediately hoped you wouldn’t be too scared to talk to him. When he approached you and Silver, Malleus was grateful that you didn’t seem terrified. Both of you being introverts, you didn’t talk much at first. After running into each other a bit, you started to join Malleus on his nightly strolls around the campus. During these walks, you two ended up talking much more about any and everything. Malleus would tell you (embarrassing) stories about young Silver, or tales and legends from his home, Briar Valley. You would listen to him and tell stories of your own from growing up in the Queendom of Roses. Being a dragon, Malleus would sometimes give you small gifts. They were usually practical but very well crafted and beautiful items. For example, after you two had been friends for a while, he gave you a comb with an intricate design of roses and thorns carved out of the jade it was made from. From time to time, Malleus enjoys playing chess with you. He usually loses if you don’t let him win and he admires how good you are at the game. Malleus looks after you like you’re his younger sister. If any boys come looking to flirt with you, he scares them away with ease. He cheats for you during Beanfest by deflecting beans with magic or using wind spells to blow them off course. You, of course, don’t really realize any of this.
Lilia Vanrouge is another member of Diasomnia who felt a familial bond towards you. He’d remind you of events or tests and assignments, check on you when you fell ill and try to make you food to feel better. (under no circumstance does Silver let you eat Lilia’s cooking) Lilia would lightly reprimand you if you found yourself in any sort of trouble (like when you disappeared for days and came back with an old decrepit Vil and many other housewardens. More on that later.) A bit after you and Silver start dating, it comes to light that Lilia is his father. It answers a lot of suspicions you had and after that reveal, Lilia deeply enjoys telling you about his travels over tea. Sometimes he’ll even give you a story or two about his experience in the Fae v. Human war. Sometimes he even brings you books long out of production telling classic stories of romance and magic.
Sebek Zigvolt was VERY skeptical of you at first. Some girl he had barely heard of was acting incredibly friendly with the heir he was sworn to protect AND the boy he grew up with? Absolutely unacceptable in his eyes. This was until he started seeing you outside of that context. When he joined the equestrian club with you and Silver, he started to feel a little less like you were a threat of some sort. It took Sebek a pretty long time, but he eventually warmed up to you and lowered his guard. He no longer shouted when you got too close to Malleus, or scolded when you spoke casually with Silver or Lillia. Sebek started to laugh with you and Silver, he was even a bit eager to meet with you and Silver. Sebek didn’t really hang out with you much one on one and when he found out you and Silver were together, he made sure to not be alone with you, seeing it as improper and a violation of etiquette. Sebek does his best to be knightly and cordial, but when it’s the three of you cleaning the stables or messing around in the library, your trio is all laughs and jokes mixed in with your duties.
Topaz- You’ve always known what your future job would be. Working for the Queendom’s parliament was a cushy future, with minimal work. Not many new laws were implemented and many of the older rules had already been overruled or stricken down by your predecessors. For your fourth year at NRC you chose to take an apprenticeship with diplomats. The work was easy to understand and came very naturally to you. Peacemaking was a piece of cake for you. You got to visit many different lands while working with the diplomat from the Queendom of Roses but their main focus was trade discussion with the Kingdom of Heroes and as such, most of your time was spent there. It made you think, if you could get elected as a representative diplomat for the Queendom of Roses, you could focus specifically on discussions with Briar Valley. It had been a long time since someone had taken up that role, but with your direct connections to the heir and his guards, you weren’t afraid in the slightest.
When you finished your apprenticeship, you had no issues getting elected as a diplomat. You were already known around the Queendom as a kind peacemaker. From there, you spent most of your time in Briar Valley. As such, your relationship with Silver was able to thrive. Between your meetings and Silver’s duties, you two were able to go on a fair many dates. One of which was especially memorable. It was a perfect spring day with blossoming flowers and a perfect breeze. Silver lead you to a clearing in the woods near the cottage he was raised in. A fresh, sparkling stream winded near the clearing, berry bushes and gorgeous flowers surrounded the area. In the center, a picture perfect picnic was set up with all of your favorite foods. Fresh picked berries, delicious chocolates, fruit juice, tea, veggie sandwiches, and a beautiful cake. The small cake sat in the center of it all. The two of you talked and ate for a long while. Before you guys decided to cut your cake, Silver asked for a dance. It wasn’t unusual, the two of you danced often to one song in particular. As you stood up, the birds around you two started chirping, and magic hung in the air. Your song started playing and as soft as a lullaby, "Once Upon A Dream” floated on the gentle breeze. The two of you danced and the rest of the world around you faded away in the light of the approaching sunset. Silver guided you in a perfectly romantic waltz until the song came to a close. Silver turned around to pick up the cake, turning his back to you for just a moment. When he turned around, with the cake in his hands, a beautiful ring straight from your dreams glistened in the center of the cake. As Silver approached you, he steadily dropped to one knee. Golden sunlight cast a dreamy glow on the scene as Silver asked you the question you had only ever dreamed of him asking. When you enthusiastically agreed, he gracefully stood and slipped the ring onto your ring finger. A kiss from your now fiance pushed you two into your dance yet again, more love and passion in the dance than there had ever been before. (When you get back to Black Dragon Castle and announce the news, Lilia INSISTS you hold a party for the whole kingdom to celebrate you and Silver and Malleus LOVES this idea)
Onyx-
Book 6 -
One day, while you and your clubmates were working with your horses in the stables. You had just finished taking care of your horse friend's mane when a ridiculously loud BOOM sounded through the campus. From there a whirlwind of events unfolded before your eyes. Robot soldiers storming the campus from the broken barrier protecting the school, your good friend Riddle permitting the use of offensive magic before being stolen away by the strange blue robots. After you started to process the events, Silver and Sebek jogged over to you to check on you. Shortly after, they suggested you get back to your dorm while they disappeared to check on Malleus.
Later that night, after you had gone back to your dorm and found out Vil had been taken, along with Grim, Jamil and a few other dormleaders, you decided you wanted to know where your friend had been taken. While sneaking out of the dorm, you ran into none other than Rook, Epel, and Yuu who seemed to have the same idea as you. The four of you fled campus together to find your friends.
Your quartet eventually reached the Isle of Woe, got into Styx after encountering Idia, and from there even MORE chaos ensued. Ortho getting corrupted, Grim disappearing, Cerberus system shutting down. Your group was able to find Vil and get the instructions to get into Tartarus and find those who were missing.
After fighting many phantoms, each more difficult to defeat than the last and finally making it to the bottom of Tartarus, your group found an Overblotted Idia and a massive phantom who claimed to be Ortho. With the giant phantom, you found Grim hanging on. Yuu looked just as worried as you felt. Despite your shared worry, when the other NRC students arrived, you had to fight Idia and ‘Ortho’. As the fight came to a close, ‘Ortho’ started falling into the Depths of Tartarus along with Idia and Grim. Without a second thought, you jumped to save Grim, quickly realizing Vil was right behind you to grab Idia. After you grabbed Grim, you started to feel exhausted, your eyes fluttering closed.
What you didn’t know was that as you fell, Epel’s unique magic and a stream of dark magic from the depths of Tartarus both struck you at the same time. You had fallen into a deep slumber. Vil somehow managed to get you holding Grim, Idia, and himself to safety and everyone made it back to NRC.
When the group reached NRC and reunited with Malleus and Lilia, the pair were deeply worried about you. After returning Vil to his regular age, their attention was immediately on you. They tried almost everything to wake you from Vargas’s whistle, to Silver’s alarm clocks, but nothing helped. After trying desperately for a few hours, the sun started to set. Ace, who had come to see Yuu and Grim again, made a joke in passing about you needing true love’s kiss. When he said that Lilia disappeared, and came back shortly with Silver in tow. Silver was quickly made aware of your situation and was a bit flustered to think he not only had to kiss you, but that he could be your true love. After a brief hesitation and asking for some privacy, Silver leaned in as the last rays of the evening sun glowed against your skin and kissed you. Only a peck out of nervousness, and he held his breath, waiting for you to wake. As your eyes fluttered open he let out a sigh of deep relief and wrapped his arms around you, overjoyed to see you safe and sound again.
Book 7 -
News of Lilia getting close to his end hit like a truck for everyone, including you. Silver took the news the worst. You did your best to comfort him any time you could, but such abrupt news was dropped, it was hard for you to process too. On the night of Lilia’s party, you had gone after Silver when he rushed out to find Malleus. The two of you approached the Statues of the Seven and felt the icy chill of the snow starting to gather. Near the Thorn Fairy’s statue, you found Malleus. After Silver asked him to come to the party, he and Malleus started talking, Malleus made the impromptu blizzard disappear. On pure instinct, you grabbed Silver’s hand and moments later he started sniffling. Then all at once, he broke down. As Silver babbled through his tears, you couldn’t help but share his pain and start to cry on his behalf. Malleus momentarily shared how he felt his magic was useless when so many of his subjects were still riddled with sorrow. After a brief moment of thought, he seemed to have a new idea, though something about the way he reacted made you feel something was off, before you could ask any further questions, you and Silver were pulled into a teleportation spell by Malleus. You found yourselves back in Diasomnia, but Malleus was definitely acting off as he announced a gift for everyone present. Ortho alerted that blot was accumulating, everyone tried to stop Malleus, but even the students and staff were no match for one of the most powerful mages in the world.
“Spinning wheel of Fate, spin the threads of Calamity.
I, Lord of Malevolence, offer this blessing- Fae Maleficence"
As thorny vines appeared and grew all around the main hall of Diasomnia, all the partygoers started to fall asleep, having been under a similar spell not long ago, it took you a bit longer to succumb. While settling to the floor, you alone caught a glimpse of an overblotted Malleus.
The next thing you saw was your own room in your own home. As you started to wake, you vaguely recalled the school semester ending a few days ago. The few small boxes that had yet to be unpacked confirmed that. You were back at home in Briar Valley… only something about Briar Valley being home didn’t feel right. You decided to brush it off and get ready for the day. You got out of bed and rang for your handmaid who arrived to your room a few moments later. You greeted each other and made pleasant conversation as she brushed and styled your hair. As she finished, you looked around your vanity for something you felt was missing. There was a comb that should have been there and for a moment it felt like the room was spinning. You decided to leave the thought of your missing comb alone for now. You dressed and ate your breakfast while going over what you had to do for the day. Your schedule was clear save for a dinner at Black Dragon Castle. You didn’t live near Black Dragon Castle. The room again started spinning and feeling distorted. You decided to visit your garden for a bit to keep your mind off these odd happenings. The time you spent tending to your plants and watching the birds, bunnies, and bees made you feel much more at ease. You had almost forgotten about the strange events from that morning when you were informed of the arrival of a guest. No one was expected to visit today, in fact it was almost time for you to change into eveningwear and head to dinner with Silver, Malleus, Sebek and Lilia. Something foggy came to mind when you thought of Lilia but you didn’t want to dig into any more strange feelings today.
When you saw who the guest was, you were even more confused. Silver should have been at the castle. When you brought it up, he almost seemed shocked before telling you there was a change of plans. Silver would be joining you for dinner alone that evening. You were a bit confused but decided to go along with it, afterall it had been a few days since you last saw your boyfriend…hadn’t it? You pushed the thought away as you sat down for dinner. During the dinner all of the inconsistencies of the day caught up to you as you recounted your day to Silver. Something about the feeling of not living near your dearest friends made you rather upset and before you knew it, Silver had shouted for you to get up. At your feet and rapidly expanding was a darkness unlike any you had seen. You quickly jumped up and ran to get closer to Silver. When you got closer, he urged you to think more about why things seemed so off and after a moment, everything came back to you. You lived in the Queendom of Roses, school was still in session, Malleus had given you the comb you couldn’t find and was the last person you saw before you awoke in this dream. At this point the dream started to shatter and Silver led you to run out of your manor. As you stepped out, the darkness chased behind you and Epel, Grim, and Yuu were in front of you. Silver instructed you to grab onto him and just like that, you were free falling through the clouds of a beautiful sunset.
Ruby- Riddle actually first noticed you one day when he was on his way to the library in your homeland. You lived nearby and had been tending to the ruby red roses bushes in your front yard. A small smile and wave was all you offered and Riddle returned a slight nod and a tight smile that didn’t fully reach his eyes. But at that moment he felt his heart skip a beat. Riddle thought you were incredibly pretty and found your gentle nature with the plants surrounding you to be a refreshing change of pace. But Riddle did his best to forget about the interaction during most of his days, only thinking about how sweet you had been to someone you didn’t know on the nights he couldn’t sleep well. By the time you two saw each other again, you had forgotten all about that little moment. Riddle didn’t talk to you much besides pleasantries during club meetings, and he only came out of his shell in your second year at NRC. You had heard whispers and rumors about someone overblotting, and as scary as it sounded, you weren’t keen to believe every wild rumor you heard. Over the next few weeks, Riddle started speaking to you more. It wasn’t much, just small “Very good work today”’s and a few more hellos in the hallways. As he talked to you more. Riddle’s feelings for you grew. He saw you and Silver together and respected it very much! But he still wanted to be closer with one of the first few people to show him genuine kindness. Riddle started inviting you over to help with the hedgehogs and flamingos, to paint the roses, or even just to spend time trying some of Trey’s new recipes. He was relieved you were already aware of the Queen of Hearts rules and did your best to abide by them. What he liked even more was how genuinely sweet and gentle you were with all living things. You spared kindness to everything from plants, to animals, and even him. You grew to be much closer friends, even if Riddle has to push his true feelings aside.
Zircon- Halloween was fast approaching and everyone at NRC was buzzing with excitement. Each dorm had chosen a location and a theme, Pomefiore getting the Mirror Chamber and Vampires. Vil was in charge this year and his ideas were absolutely electrifying! All the costumes would be high quality and tailored to each student. Makeup would be practiced until it was flawless. Decorations would go all out too! After many rounds of makeup practice, (and a special session with Vil so he could make you makeup while avoiding your allergens, no way would he have a student unable to participate. Not on Vil’s watch) and a few meetings with costume designers to get your measurements and then get your costume tailored to absolute perfection, costumes were made, all the areas that would be on display were decorated to the nines by each dorm, and everything seemed to be running smoothly! But of course nothing can end that way at NRC. A picture uploaded to Magicam had all of Sage Island in a buzz. Hundreds more people than expected wanted in on this year's festivities and many people weren’t patient about it. Reports of people trying to sneak close to campus to get glimpses of the setup were racking up and Crowley handled this by lying about security and placing it on each dorm's hands to take care of the Magicam monsters.
After some incredibly disrespectful guests try to knock over the statues of the great seven and Crowley suggested canceling the whole event, you decide to step up and use your unique magic to help fix the situation.
“A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down!”
In an instant you had come up with an idea to get the magicam monsters off campus without the possibility of hurting them using magic. Make the event so miserable for them, they leave of their own accord. You tell each dorm what to do in order to make this a success. Namely, you talk with Vil and Rook about banning photography and they agree.
The next day, each dorm puts in place their rules and pranks to back them up. Your plan was of course successful and the halloween party and parade was back on! Once you and all your dormmates had gotten dressed in your costumes, you made your way to the main street. From there, you joined a few other Pomefiore students on a float shaped like a dark castle. You were able to sit on the balcony shaped seat on the side and toss out candy to the visitors who had patiently waited for the Week of festivities. About halfway through the parade, you switched out with some other students and walked near Kalim. The two of you spent the rest of the parade acting and laughing for all the visitors. After the parade kids were able to trick or treat, shyly asking you for candy or sweetly complimenting you and your costume. One even commented that you looked like a vampire princess!
Finally, the Halloween party for students and staff could start. Everyone was handed a glass of sparkling juice for a toast to everyone’s hard work for the event and in celebration of Halloween itself. For the rest of the night, you talked to your friends, even getting almost everyone to play a big game of Sardines (tag and hide&seek mixed if you don't know! Everyone hides from the person who is “it” and when they’re found, they become “it” with the original person) on the amply decorated campus.
oh my gosh!!! this was so so so so so fun to write and sorry for the kind of abrupt ending but it was already 1k words longer than the original and THAT'S so crazy to me I don't know how I did that. but I really really hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it!!
Casting your unique magic gives you a limited time "glamour" effect in which you feel more calm and confidant, and come off more attractive and charismatic to others (could lead to them being more agreeable towards you). It's a simple spell, but helps tremendously with the public speaking and confrontations that you hate so much (no stumbling over your words or freezing up!). You can use the spell 1-2 times for however long you need daily before your blot accumulation levels become dangerous.
Sibling: Cater Diamond
Your older brother who loves to spoil you rotten! You're his only younger sister, so he's quite protective of you, especially since you can be shy and socially awkward. Your extroverted brother has no problem dealing with bigger groups of people that threaten to overwhelm you (especially during family reunions). Though he also hopes you'll expand your social circle, so he often introduces you to his adopted introvert friends in hopes that they'll click with you. He's always praising you and commenting on how cute you are (just like your older sisters), often paired with pinching your cheeks, so you've grown up showered with love from all siblings. He's definitely the reason you overuse emojis while texting because he does it too. Or maybe he got it from your second eldest sister?
Best friend: Silver
The both of you would get along really well! The kind of easy friendship two introverts have with each other, he likes your sweet and polite personality, and you like how he's honest and straightforward but not unkind. Your love for animals is a great match with Silver, whom animals seem to always gravitate to. When you hang out with him, it's not long before a squirrel or cat comes up to him and you can pet it. He loves your singing and will compliment you whenever you sing in front of or for him. He does have a tendency to fall asleep when you sing slower songs like romantic ballads though. Often you'll finish singing, look back at him and find him asleep, resting his head on the nearest surface.
Relationship with:
Riddle Rosehearts
The both of you would make good friends! After he's had some character development post-overblot at least. Your sweet and agreeable personality meshes well with his more logical and straightforward one, and it works because the both of you appreciate the traits that you lack in the other. Though you both can be socially awkward in your own ways, Trey and/or Cater are usually close by to help alleviate the awkwardness. You both often spend time together talking about the books you've read or playing with Heartslabyul's hedgehogs that Riddle likes so much.
Ace Trappola
I can imagine you both being unlikely friends somehow?? He got to know you through Cater, and decided arbitrarily that he liked you enough to want to keep hanging out with you (he just likes teasing you). He's like an annoying brother, always bothering you with his boisterous personality and dragging you into his antics. He can be blunt with his words, so he's accidentally offended you a few times when really he meant well. When that happens, he won't say he's sorry, but he'll buy you snacks in lieu of a verbal apology.
Epel Felmier
The both of you would get along well! At first glance, people would think you both are birds of a feather, being on the shyer and quiet side. The both of you even have the same MBTI type! However, anyone who is more familiar with Epel's personality is confused as to how you both are friends with your contrasting personalities, with your sweetness and empathy and his short temper. But! It is this clash in personality that draws you both to each other, forming a friendship forged in mutual growth. You help him to be more relaxed (and well-mannered) and he helps you to be more assertive. Because of him and Ace, you're often dragged into their antics (along with Deuce), which always leave you exhausted at the end of the day. But hey, you get so many cool and funny pictures out of them. You'll laugh over them years later.
Your ideal match is…Rook Hunt!
Given how shy you are, it makes sense for you to have a more extroverted and friendly S/O. Rook was definitely the one to approach you and initiate conversation, along with more of your chats with him after that (always one-on-one, as he is quite intuitive with the emotions of others). Though he might have come off a bit strong at first, eccentric personality and all, you didn't mind talking to him. Over time, you got to be comfortable with him and started showing more of your silly habits. You also got to see more of his personality, namely how romantic and open-minded he is, always finding the beauty in everything. Also thoughtful, honest (though albeit secretive) and not afraid to express his feelings. Before you knew it, your feelings for him started shifting from platonic to something more... But true to your shy nature, your relationship with Rook had to be initiated by his confession.
♡ He has the emotional intelligence to know when to push for you to share your problems and when to give you space and not force to you into being emotional vulnerable when you're not ready. It's probably his most attractive trait. He gets it because he's like that as well, being the secretive person he is. Most of the time, you both will end up cuddling for comfort instead of talking about what's bothering you or him. He's fine with it as long as you are - Cuddling until the bad feelings are gone suits you both better anyway.
♡ Rook is a nature lover too! He's always down for a nature walk, happy to hold your hand and bask in your company all the way. He'd also like taking a stroll in the woods, but only if you're comfortable with it. He's fine sticking to parks and gardens when he's with you; He can always go to the woods alone if you prefer not going on jungle treks.
♡ He loves physical touch! Both giving and receiving, so you both are compatible in that aspect. He loves to give hugs and kisses to the back of your hand, leaning into the chivalry you find attractive. On the flip side, he is more than happy to receive your affectionate touches, especially your spontaneous kisses to the head. He doesn't mind being the little spoon, but he will comment on the height difference when you press yourself against him because he finds it funny.
♡ With your receiving love language being words of affirmation, Rook would make you feel SO loved!!! He's always complimenting you and hyping you up. If singing your praises isn't enough, there's also the poems he's written about you and he will show them to you with no reservations (social anxiety fears him). Don't let him catch you downplaying or doubting yourself or you'll have to take the barrage of encouraging compliments and affirmations he showers you with.
Photo albums, rural picnics, shared collection of fantasy books, him writing poems about you, weekly readings of said poems, you catch him staring at you every time you look over at him, crying over emotional moments in anime together, singing together, romantic serenades, writing about him in your diary, love notes from him left in your bag, cuddling each other for comfort over talking about feelings, "the moon is beautiful tonight", you were pointing at the moon, but he was looking at your hand
A/N:
♡ Your personality really reminded me of certain Disney princesses like Cinderella and Aurora, so your UM was inspired by the spell that was cast on Cinderella for her to go to the ball.
♡ You gave me major Heartslabyul vibes. I was debating between Riddle, Cater and Ace for your sibling matchup, but Cater won in the end because of your "spoiled youngest among 3 siblings" status. I thought you'd make an adorable younger sister for him to spoil.
♡ Writing the second half of Epel's section gave me such Yuu vibes for you. You're so Yuu coded to me now help. I can imagine you taking pictures of everyone for the NRC school newspaper. Conducting interviews would help with your social skills a lot too. XD
Hailing from the multicultural Land of Pyroxene, you grew up as the only child to two loving parents and the first in your family to manifest magic. Seeing your potential, your parents enrolled you into one of the best schools around. You managed to get in with a scholarship and made sure to work hard so your family (that didn't have the money to comfortably afford your education like the rest of your wealthier peers could) wouldn't have to worry. Having been exposed to peers of varying race, status and class from a young age, you developed a belief that everyone should be treated fairly. You graduated as one of the best students in your batch with amazing grades and a wonderful extracurricular record. This, along with your impressive magic potential, lead to the invitation to enroll letter from Night Raven College landing on your doorstep.
Dorm:
You're something of an ideal Scarabia student if I've ever seen one. Your traits of being goal-oriented, meticulous, independent, competitive and able to thrive under pressure are favorable traits in Scarabia. You take your future very seriously, embodying Scarabia's motto "plan with deep anticipation". Your dorm is glad to have you, and the Sorcerer of the Desert himself would be proud of you!
Your ideal match is… Floyd Leech !
♡ The both of you have traits that the other would be attracted to~~ Floyd is athletic and cocky, often marching to the beat of his own drum in a way that has no right being that attractive. He would find you interesting, so ambitious and direct~ Which means he'll want to obsessively pester you spend more time with you! If you're not scared off by him, you've sealed your fate in becoming one of his favourite "toys".
♡ The chemistry from your first meeting carries on into future interactions, in which you both fall into playful banter all the time. You both have experience with being intimidating to others, so it's refreshing for the both of you to be with someone who isn't scared off by the rougher parts of your personality. Floyd isn't the best at emotional intelligence, but he does try not to bring up sensitive topics that would upset you. It's better when you're having fun and in high spirits with him!
♡ He has a certain admiration for high achievers and hard workers. He doesn't like doing it himself, but it's cool when others have the discipline for it! Your bluntness would be highly entertaining for him. It's so funny to see you humbling others! Especially if it's someone who isn't used to being told off! He may not always like it when you tell him off, but he can respect you for it. In a way, it's better for him because he has a straightforward way of communicating as well. There's no need to play guessing games with you. You'll tell him if he has done something wrong or upset you. That makes communication for the both of you easier.
♡ His spontaneous and rebellious nature balances out your meticulous and driven personality. Others don't understand how you can tolerate his mood swings and be so patient with him, but who cares what they think? They don't know how sweet Floyd can be when he cares about someone, how he knows exactly when to leave you to your work and when to pull you away to do something fun and recharge.
♡ Like you, Floyd has many hobbies and interests (though he easily gets bored of most of them). He would connect with you over music, dance and sports. Dancing together is an activity best done to let loose and have fun! But if you play sports with him, he'll show you his competitive side! He won't go easy on you~ But he's not a sore loser, so he'll praise you after playfully pouting over his loss for a bit.
♡ He doesn't really ask for favors from you, but with your responsible and assertive personality, it's likely that you end up doing acts of service for him by cleaning up his messes (Jade is the one cashing in the favors). This is a side effect of Floyd being the impulsive type, he just does as he pleases~ Moreover, he likes being praised, so he will definitely work for yours!! It feels extra special coming from you since you like to be stingy with it~ Maybe you could convince Floyd to behave by promising to praise him if he succeeds. There's a decent chance of it working!
♡ Floyd loves physical touch!! It's his main love language. He definitely pulls you away from work often, usually by getting your attention with a back hug, but it's due to his own clinginess rather than seeing you overworking yourself. Though his sudden need for affection does tend to align with the time your work takes a toll on you. Once he's got you in his arms, he won't let you go!! He isn't famous for his squeezes for nothing!
☆ Jade and Riddle are in class 2-E. Congratulations on having them as your classmates! They are both the kind of classmates who could help remind you of homework or sit with you and make sure you do your work. But given their personalities... You probably don't want that, right?
☆ At first Jade was just being polite while talking to you, maybe sneaking in a few mentions of how helpful he and/or Azul are willing to be if you need anything. Then you mentioned that you like nature outings and a lightbulb went off in his head. You didn't seem to be afraid of him at all, and having your company wouldn't be so bad... A week before it was time for you to choose your club, Jade invited you to try coming with him to his Mountain Lovers Club session. And whaddya know, you stuck around for the next one!
☆ Since you like animals and know a lot about them, I thought biology would be your favourite/best subject! Animal linguistics is more on communicating with animals and hm... I dunno, I just didn't feel you would be as good at it? I'm not sure how well you are at learning languages so. I went the nerdy (yapping about animal facts) route!
Dorm:
Scarabia is the dorm based on the Sorcerer of the Sands' spirit of mindfulness — Mindfulness is a state of being aware of oneself and the present moment, and may extend to being aware of others and perceiving their own states of being. You embody mindfulness with your humorous and carefree spirit, living in the moment and lifting the spirits of those around you. Being funny requires paying attention to your surroundings, making actions or jokes and getting the right timing for a positive reaction. It's not as easy as it seems! Plus, you get to be with your childhood friends Kalim and Jamil!
Homeland: Scalding Sands
As you already know from your vibe matchup, you grew up in the Scalding Sands! Your fun facts gave me the vibes of a young servant of the Asim family, then Jamil being your childhood friend popped into mind! The Scalding Sands certainly fits your summer vibes, and food is a big part of the culture (plus tea being customary with every meal). You would fit right in with the warm sunny scenery!
Relationship with:
Jamil Viper
Your childhood friend!!! (Jamil: I've never met them in my life) He likes to act like he doesn't care about you (ignores your high-fives??? devastating), but who was the one that learned to make candied flower petals so you would stop eating fallen flowers from the Asim garden? Exactly. Luckily for him, he got to graduate from tutoring you in middle school to tutoring you in college (no one asked him to do this he could just Not). His soda bribes are plentiful. He also reminds you to do your homework and will sit with you to make sure you do it (seriously he is doing this to himself). Kalim will join you guys!
Kalim Al-Asim
Your other childhood friend!!! Unlike Jamil, Kalim will actually show how much he cares about you. Engaged and exciting conversations! He can get distracted easily, but he really likes listening to you talk about your interests! Hugs! Sharing food! Compliments and praise because he noticed how you melt at them! Gives something back for every silly gift you give him! Your collection of plushies, keychains, stickers and figurines threatens to evict you from your room.
Najma Viper
One of your closest friends growing up! The both of you share enough similarities to get along like a house on fire, namely your easy-going personality and love for making jokes! You both definitely teased Jamil a lot during childhood (still do actually). When the both of you aren't ganging up on Jamil, you're probably bickering over something stupid (just like siblings) because Najma lives for ragebaiting. Then you both get over it 5 mins later and go back to being besties.
Epel Felmier
It seems you have a secret admirer! He first noticed you because you were wearing sunglasses while making your way through the hallway of classrooms, and didn't pay you much mind at first. It was after seeing you in casual clothes (punk clothing!!) and riding around on a Magical Wheel that his cool senpai! feelings came in. He's quite reserved and doesn't know how to approach people, so he mostly hangs around in the same area as you, hoping that you'll notice him eventually and approach him first. If you guys ever do get talking, he'd be down to watch the twst equivalent of WWE with you!
Jade Leech
An unexpected friend! He really didn't expect to enjoy your company so much either. This friendship is only possible because you were too dense to realize most of the student population is wary or scared of Jade. And even if you were warned (ahem Jamil AHEM) to stay away from him, you had talked enough with Jade to decide that he's a decent guy (there's some of that reckless energy). He doesn't show it outright, but he's happy to have someone else in the Mountain Lovers Club with him!! Hiking and exploring the forest trails is much more entertaining with you around. He likes you so much that he won't even test unidentified mushrooms on you. What a good friend he is~
Your ideal match is... Lilia Vanrouge !
The both of you are compatible due to your shared traits of being eccentric humorous and fun-loving. Lilia would be drawn to you at first because of your punk aesthetic, then as he gets to know you better, your carefree and curious spirit. While Lilia does have a sense of responsibility and could encourage you to stop procrastinating so much, he isn't strict to the point of being overbearing.
♡ You met Lilia when you visited Kalim at the band club one day. The both of you hit it off immediately! It was easy because you both are friendly and have a similar sense of humor, cracking puns and dad jokes (on Lilia's part) all the way. An instant connection!
♡ Your love languages align perfectly!! Of course Lilia appreciates quality time, and will respond to all of your 3am shitposts with memes he's been saving while waiting for you to spam him. He loves giving gifts too, and happily accepts the silly things you give him. He doesn't shy away from giving words of affirmation, though the pet names he calls you and compliments he gives can be a bit weird sometimes.
♡ Gaming together and going on nature walks are y'alls common date activities!! Lilia loves gaming, but is also very connected to nature as a fae. He especially loves taking walks in the park when it is autumn.
♡ The way to your heart is food, you say? Well, Lilia would love to cook for you! Feel free to drop by the Diasomnia dorm for dinner anytime, he'd be happy to make something for you! Then you both could have dinner together... But for some reason, you always have an essay due in a hour when he invites you over for a homecooked dinner.
A/N: At first I considered putting you in class 2-A with Kalim (maybe you met Lilia through being friends with Silver?) or class 2-C with Jamil (someone needs to keep you on track for finishing your schoolwork). But ended up putting you into class 2-E once I realised there is a way for you to join the Mountain Lovers Club. RIP
