(I do not know why I am doing this. (Just kidding, I know the reason))
If you know what I need to add to this list (well, I don't know, some additional designations or brief information), then write it down, because I'm better at pouring water than putting information together
Jujutsu Kaisen
Satoru Gojo
1. Surrender to the will of the elders
2. The dream is destroyed, but turned into reality
3. Heads of the Satoru Gojo Fan Club
4. Are you trying to flirt with me or are you planning to kill me?
A few months ago, I came across your fic, and it really sparked an idea in my mind. I was wondering if I could have your permission to use the AU concept and some of the traits mentioned in your fic
Cats and their People for a story I'm working on.
Of course, I will give you full credit for the original idea, with a special mention in my story on Wattpad. I'll make it clear that the concept was inspired by your work, and I've just added some of my own touches.
I would be truly grateful if you're open to this. Thanks so much for considering my request!
Best regards,
Andrea
Oh, I'm always glad when people are inspired by my works! Of course, you can use my idea! The main thing is that you need to (khm, MUST) send me a link to your work so that I can read it ^∆^
When you opened your eyes, you found yourself in an unfamiliar bed, an unfamiliar room, next to unfamiliar people. Girls dressed as maids happily talked among themselves, a few ran over to check on your condition, someone called for a doctor.
You didn't know what was going on. You were suddenly the daughter of an aristocrat, judging by the rich decor of the room. Is this... something like isekai?
You just sat there and let the doctor examine you. You didn't fully understand what this place was, or what you'd forgotten about it at all. You had no idea why you had suddenly moved into another body... and you didn't know who that body belonged to. Didn't you read a book or something before going to bed?..
P-please Gojo-sama... y-you can't break into (Y/N)-sama`s bedroom so abruptly! Es-specially after what happened to her!"
"G-Gojo-sama?.."
As soon as a tall man with a black blindfold burst into the room, you knew you'd won the lottery. Your favorite character froze for a second in the doorway, the servants whispering among themselves and looking scared. The sorcerer suddenly sat down in front of you, landing so hard on his knees that it clearly hurt him. But he didn't care. He held out his hands to you with tenderness, as if he was afraid of breaking you, and touched your cheek.
(Y-Y/N)... I'm s-so glad you're okay!
He slowly pulled the blindfold off his eyes, tears rolling down his cheeks.
I thought I lost you forever… I'm happy that I can hear your voice again!
He pushed the doctor away and hugged you.
I'll send you all the flowers from the flower shop! I'll buy you anything you want! Just please don't scare me so much anymore!
You sat there, and then, to the surprise of all the servants, you smiled. When you hugged Gojo, you promised him that you would never, ever make the same mistake again. Satoru looked at you with such happiness in his eyes that you almost couldn't believe it.
If you did something really good in your life, it was your reward for trying.
You turned out to be the daughter of the head of an unknown clan of sorcerers in the original. Your servants loved you, your parents cherished you. It was a perfect life... and it became even more perfect when Satoru started communicating more to you.
He came to see you every day while you were recovering, and you couldn't help but be happy. Your favorite character took care of you! He gave you flowers, showered you with gifts. He always listened to you and helped you solve the problem. He was like a prince out of a fairy tale: your ideal future spouse.
Gradually, you recovered from your "injury". It looks like the previous owner of this body fell into the lake. Perhaps her life was too good, so fate decided to balance this world.
But in any case, you are now in the place of the original soul. And you were going to enjoy everything that a generous fate gave you!
Expensive and delicious food; rings, necklaces, earrings and bracelets that cost more than you could imagine; the best designers personally created clothes for you… And Satoru. Satoru, who looked at you through the eyes of a boy in love. For some reason, there was no one more important to him than you.
Gojo was in love. And you were in love. You were both ready to lay the world at each other's feet. But if you could only do it metaphorically, then the sorcerer was able to do it literally.
Holding hands, hugging, kissing... Satoru said that he had never done this before, especially with someone like you. You were glad that you could share these moments with him. You felt that you were gradually getting more and more used to this body. It was as if you were becoming one with something that had previously seemed alien to you.
It's like being in the world of a romance novel as the main character. No problems could stop you... and if there was something that interfered with your life, Satoru did everything to make you feel comfortable again. When you were in his arms, you forgot all evil and felt a sense of security that you had never felt before.
You basked in love and happiness. Until you started finding the diaries that belong to this body.
"I hate Satoru Gojo. I hope he chokes on his selfishness and dies in the gutter."
You giggled. "Did Utahime write that?" You read line after line and didn't understand why "the original" hated your favorite character so much. You didn't have to do anything to win Gojo`s love. Satoru literally came running to you as soon as he found out that you opened your eyes! So they had a good relationship from the beginning. "Maybe these are recordings made at the beginning of their relationship?"
But no. The ones made before falling into the lake... were also filled with hatred.
"I pray to all the gods that Satoru Gojo will die. I'm willing to give my own soul to stop experiencing this torment. I'm sure even death won't save me, because he'll get me in the world of the dead."
"I hate him. I hate him so much that I prayed at his birthday party that he wouldn't live to be old. I hope the gods hear my prayers. But if they don't save me, I'll turn to the demons. I will do everything I can to Gojo finally close his vile eyes... forever"
"I can't take it anymore! I tried to kill myself... but Gojo came and saved me! I hate it! He won't let me go... HE WON'T LET ME GO!.."
The paper was... stained with blood. With your blood.
You've closed the diary.
Gradually, you began to interact with the maids and understand why they looked so dumbfounded the first time you opened your eyes. "You" usually hated Gojo. Every time he came to "you", "you" shouted at him, hit him with improvised objects, threw a tantrum... "You" acted like some crazy villain, but Satoru kept coming to "you", sometimes just to talk…
"You" threw away the expensive gifts he sent you. "You" burned his letters and flowers in his presence. "You" called Gojo such words that you couldn't even pronounce them in your head, they sounded so terrible and harsh.
You continued to wonder. Your parents begged you to stop communicating with Satoru, your servants were afraid for your health. But you didn't understand why they said that. Satoru Gojo also... loved you with all his heart. And he didn't fall in love with this body, he fell in love with you! Otherwise, he wouldn't come back to you again and again just to listen to what you wanted to tell him about yourself.
And when he said that before you fell into the lake, he and you discussed getting engaged... you said yes without hesitation.
What difference does it make what relationship this body had with Satoru originally? This body was yours now. So the fate of this body was also in your hand. And you wanted to spend your life with Satoru Gojo.
On that day, you were walking with Gojo in the territory of his clan. Heavy and beautiful kimono, high hairstyle with lots of jewelry, wonderful manicure… You had a delicious meal at the engagement banquet and were now walking with your fiance in the garden. You were so happy that you couldn't stop smiling.
The lake you saw ahead of you looked familiar. Gojo suddenly put his hand on your waist and pulled you closer to him.
You fell into this lake about a year ago. I hope you don't remember that terrible event. I was so afraid then that you would drown and leave me...
You giggled and snuggled closer to Gojo. Looking around at the calm surface of the lake, you felt as if "your" memories wanted to... awaken. You frowned and squeezed your temples with your fingers. Satoru looked at you worriedly. You convinced him that everything was fine... and then you looked into his eyes and tried to pull away, but his grip on your waist grew stronger.
Those eyes... it was as if his gaze had changed. Instead of love and tenderness, there was something scary and frightening. Something… what you sometimes saw in the nightmares that this body had.
(Y/N), my sweet (Y/N). I was so afraid of losing you. When you jumped into the lake... I thought I wouldn't be able to see your smile again, hear your voice...
Something was wrong. You clearly felt it. Gojo reached out and tried to tuck a lock of hair behind your ear, but you reflexively recoiled from him. However, the smile on the sorcerer's face didn't fade. It just got bigger.
The memories kept trying to force their way into your head. They warned you... of danger.
We'll get married soon, (Y/N). Isn't that wonderful? And once you're my wife... you never be able to run away from me.
The cold wind got under your clothes and clawed at your skin. You were suddenly afraid. You tried to pull away, but Gojo only pulled you closer to him, into his arms. But you, unlike all previous times, did not stop being cold.
I thought I lost you… When I told you we were engaged, you jumped into the lake. (Y/N)... (Y/N), I told you, I give you whole world. So why are you... always trying to get away from me?
You put your hands to your head, and tears came to your eyes. The memories that made you freeze with fear... filled your head.
Harassment. Unsolicited gifts and flowers. Stealing things. Obsessive attempts to speak. Touching without consent. Manipulation. Beating up everyone you tried to talk to. Threats to your loved ones. Attempted abduction.
"Your" unhealthy behavior was explained easily and simply. You were just trying to get rid of the maniac who fell madly in love with you the moment your eyes first met his.
"The moment when they, just innocent children, met for the first time... was a turning point in their lives. Satoru Gojo realized that he didn't need anything... as long as it wasn't related to (Y/N) (Y/S). The future great sorcerer needed love... and he somehow decided that the girl in front of him was the one who could give it to him."
"You" tried to escape. "You" tried to resist. But what could "you" do against a great sorcerer like Satoru Gojo? Your personal maniac just laughed and waited for you to get tired. He knew that you couldn't escape him for long... and he was ready to protect you from any danger, as long as you were always there for him.
And when he started talking about an engagement... a way to tie "you" to him forever... "you" decided that it was better to drown in the lake than to open your eyes and every day... see the face of a man who wanted "you" just for himself.
You were a beautiful doll in his hands, which he dressed up and played with. You thought you were lucky... but in reality, you were dead wrong.
Satoru smiled and suddenly laughed. He grabbed your hand and looked at the shining ring on your ring finger. There was more satisfaction and pleasure in his eyes than there could be in the eyes of a man... who just genuinely loves his woman.
Something began to wrap around your neck, and you were almost suffocated. Satoru was whispering words of comfort to you, telling you that it would all be over soon. A thin chain wrapped around your neck and froze like a cursed collar.
Why couldn't you have been so obedient in the first place? If you hadn't been so stubborn, we might have been happy a long time ago. It looks like you lost your memory when you fell into the lake, because you suddenly started treating me the way I always dreamed you would… Well, that's okay. It doesn't matter that you don't remember that you don't love me. The main thing I always remember... is that I love you.
The ring suddenly seemed to squeeze your finger, the chain seemed to choke, the bracelets on your hands and feet seemed to become heavier… You were bound... and forever bound to Satoru Gojo. You could have avoided all this if you had listened to "yourself" from the diaries…
No. No. You deceived yourself. You couldn't run away from a man like Satoru Gojo. Even "you" couldn't escape, eventually leaving this body in this world... and seemingly cursing you forever.
If you did something really bad in your life, it was... your punishment for how terrible a person you were.
I do not know what Gege's plans for manga are, but I'm already just waiting for everyone to die so that all the characters are in heaven, and then we will finally get a cute-funny sitcom or something like that
Wito! hi! I wanted to ask you, what's your top 3 favorite JJK characters?. I hope you are enjoying your vacation 😊
Oh, thank you! (*≧∀≦*)
I do not know why you need this information... and I hadn't thought about it at all before, so... HMM.
If we do not include Satoru in this list, then these are Nanami, Ieiri and Miwa.
Nanami is generally an ideal man both as a person and as an employee. I really like responsible people who take their work seriously, so... I respect Nanami for not killing anyone while he was working both in the office and as a sorcerer. If I had met someone like him in my life, I would have given a damn that he was blond and tried to marry him. I love people I can rely on.
Ieiri... I ADORE healers, but I'm a little sad because she didn't get that much attention. (I'm the kind of person who needs to be told about EACH character's childhood. I like to listen to stories that have already been written). She possesses a cursed technique that makes her more useful than even the most powerful sorcerers. I mean it... Anyone can kill, but heal... I love her calmness, but I really would like to know... more about her. Maybe about someone tried to kidnap her to use her or something like that. (I would like to watch her being kidnapped, but she just sits there and asks what to write on the tombstones of the kidnappers, because we all know who her friends are). In short, a cool woman whom I respect.
Miwa... She represents me if I were in that world. Besides, she's sweet and... quite a positive character. Her low self-esteem is something familiar to me, so... Maybe that's the whole point. Besides, I love characters who are just good. Without any special "injuries" or ulterior motives. Just a piece of positivity and, I hope, happiness.
I do not know why anyone would need this information... It's really hard for me to choose characters. (┳◇┳)
I usually focus on only one person, with whom I "fell in love with at first sight." So the rest of the characters for me are either "creature, how dare you offend my favorite cottage cheese pie", or "oh, hi, I haven't seen you for a long time, glad to see you... probably"
(In some anime, I can't choose more than one character at all, because all the others are different... not interesting to me)
heyy! how are you doing? it's been a few weeks since you've uploaded here and I was just wondering if you've been occupied (not to pressure you into uploading at all, I'm just not used to it lol)
Oh, I'm fine, no need to worry! I'm really on a little vacation right now… But in fact, I am the kind of person who releases something when inspiration falls on me. I can disappear for months and then come back with a few fanfictions. I don't have a clear "work schedule" ʕ￫ᴥ￩ʔ
–Are you sure you want me around? You can still go to your parents' house alone or introduce me as your friend.
–I-I want... I want you to be there for me. And n-not just because I feel calmer… but also because my parents need to know that I put myself in the hands of a good human.
You giggle as you look at Kalego. You try to recover a little and calm down, but it's harder than you thought. You are standing in front of a familiar house. Your hands reach for a small button to inform the owners of the house of your arrival. Your body is about to move on its own, but it's not happening yet... because you're holding yourself together.
You feel a cool hand on your fingers and turn your head towards Kalego. He gently lifts your hand and brings it closer to the button. It expects, it doesn't do the action for you. But still, it gently pushes you toward what's about to happen.
However, you don't have time to do anything. In the hallway, a door suddenly lights up, and then a woman who has changed a lot in so many years appears on the threshold. But you'll always know it anyway. Your body acts on its own, you climb over the fence, as you did many times when you were a child, when you forgot your keys, and run straight into the arms of a woman. Mom.
You don't remember, and you probably won't ever remember, what you said to her... what she said to you. You will only keep forever that pleasant feeling in your chest, that sense of reunion and peace that you can feel when you return home.
Soon, your father shows up, and three people are hugging on the porch. Kalego stands behind the fence and smiles faintly. In his family, "tenderness" is not accepted. He barely hugged his older brother and parent often. They only exchanged a few words before hurrying off on their own business, rushing to fulfill their roles in the Underworld.
But now he looks at you and suddenly understands… that his life and his children would no longer be the same as he was. You will never be familiar with the rules of his family, and therefore you will give your loved ones the love they deserve.
If you agree to have children with Kalego, you will not look at them as "future Naberius". For you, they will just be children, the children of you and your husband.
The thought of this warms Kalego's heart involuntarily, pierces it with warmth stronger than any fire spell. Although outwardly it remains unchanged.
–(Y/N), oh, what are we? – your mother gasps. – It's already evening, it's cold outside! We need to get inside soon!..
–W-wait! I-I b-brought someone with me... he was the one who helped me escape from the people I was talking to you about! And h-he's my... lover.
Your parents start looking at Kalego, who bows respectfully to them. You don't hear their quiet conversation, you stare ahead at your favorite demon. Naberius can easily climb over the fence or even break it, but he stands patiently waiting to be let in... although you can see in his eyes that he doesn't want to leave you for long, even if you're with your family right now.
Eventually your father comes down the steps and opens the gate. Kalego nods gratefully to him and hurries over to you. Your father calls out to him, and the demon turns with a question. Your father says something to him, but for obvious reasons the dialogue cannot be carried out.
–Dad, he doesn't speak our language, – you hurry down the steps and stand next to Kalego. The demon immediately puts his arm around your waist. – Like I said, I was taken out of the country... and Kalego-kun helped me a lot. And then... we realized that we loved each other.
–(Y/N), are you sure you fell in love with him… not because he saved you? – your father puts his hands on your shoulders. – I'm not sure if this is a healthy relationship.…
–N-no, it's all right, Dad! I... W-we really love each other! And w-we confessed our feelings to each other... after I was saved. It's been long enough for me to get to know him better!
You put your arm around the demon's arm and rest your head on his shoulder. Your parents look at Kalego suspiciously, but they're too happy to see you to ask. They lead you and Kalego to their home, and Naberius begins to look around with interest.
–Maybe Kalego-san can take off his coat. And what about this hat? – your mother is looking at a demon who took off his shoes and was now putting his feet in his slippers.
–Uh... Kalego-kun, they're asking you to take off your coat... and your hat.
–Then I'll do it now.
–Ar-re you sure? It's... y-your tail and your horns can be seen!
–First of all, my horns merge with my hair, – your mother looks at Kalego's head in surprise, but doesn't comment. – Second, I wrapped my tail around my leg while I was waiting behind the fence. So nothing will be noticeable.
–T-thank you, Kalego-kun! I didn't want anyone to feel uncomfortable here… He's going to take it off, Mom! Where can I put my things?..
Sitting at the table in your own living room, you can't believe that you are at home again. Your own thoughts are cursing you. I should have come here earlier! I should have at least called them more often, not just sent them messages and photos! Suddenly, Kalego takes your hand under the table, and you flinch. From the outside, Naberius continues to simply look at the new house.
–You can't change the past, – he says calmly. – If I could, I'd hit my uncle a couple of times, – the demon winces. – That's not what you should be focusing on right now, – he says, nodding toward your parents, who are busy in the kitchen. – You wanted to help them, but they ordered you to sit still and not go anywhere. So you grew up in this environment?
–Well, not exactly… This house has changed a lot since I left to study... many of the paintings and plants weren't there before. Probably because I often hit them by accident, – you giggled. – This place has become like a home worthy of "old" people like my parents. I'm glad.
–Here we are! – your parents are looking out of the kitchen with food in their hands. – I'm not sure how much your tastes have changed over the years... but I hope you don't mind that we've made your favorite dish! You loved it when you were a kid...
–Oh, that's wonderful! – you cheerfully clap your hands. – Thank you very much! Hey, Kalego-kun, let me explain to you what dishes are made from what…
Food may be on the table, but no one reaches out to help themselves to something. Kalego waits for the older members of the family to start eating, while your parents look at you with hope and concern. You end up telling "your story" instead of eating.
You don't change much about the words you said earlier to your colleague. Your parents are looking at you with such panic, as if you are being abducted right in front of their eyes. You have to stop every few seconds and reassure them that you're fine, that you weren't tortured, that you weren't bullied. Maybe you could have come up with a different story, but you already told your parents something... and now you had to work with what you came up with.
As a result, you don't have time to tell your made-up story. Your parents just start crying, and all you can do is get up, walk over to them, and give them a hug. Kalego silently closes his eyes and turns away. He doesn't want to get involved in your family's business... and he doesn't really like it when other people cry.
You can only move away from your parents when the food is already cold. Kalego, who has been watching this in silence anyway, also serves napkins to the three people without a word. While you and your father blow your nose, your mother looks at the plates and sighs loudly.
–Everything has already cooled down… (Y/N), why didn't Kalego-san eat? Did he not like the food?..
–Uh… I don't know myself. Kalego-kun, why didn't you eat?!
–Because according to the rules, the first bite is made by the head of the family or the one who is older... and although I am older than everyone here put together, the age of your parents relative to the demonic calculus will be greater, – Naberius shrugs. – I can't stop following the manners and traditions of my world, even if I'm among humans right now.
You nod and quickly explain the situation. Your mother quickly starts saying that Kalego didn't have to do this, that your parents won't be offended if the demon starts eating before them. You barely have time to translate everything. As a result, Naberius just shakes his head and says that he will wait as long as necessary.
Thankfully, the warm food is still delicious, so you and your parents (and Kalego, of course) are enjoying something you haven't eaten in many, many years.
–It's a pity that Kalego-san can't tell us something about himself, – your father sighs when the meal is over and your mother goes to get tea. – I have a lot of questions for him. I can't leave my daughter to anyone!
–D-don't worry, Dad, Kalego-kun is very caring and good! – you smile and hug the demon. Naberius blunts for a few seconds, and then hugs you back, moving his chair closer to yours. His hands on your body are quite chaste. – He works as a teacher at a very prestigious school. He is also a great musician and has a large collection of cacti. He may seem very serious, but I don't get bored with him!
–Oh, he's a musician? Maybe he can play us something. My guitar is still in the hallway on the second floor.
–M-m-m, he mostly plays classical instruments… But I think he can give it a try. Hey Kalego-kun, do you want to try playing a human guitar?..
A few minutes later, you're giggling as you watch Naberius try to sort out human notes and a human guitar. Your father has to show you a few songs to make Kalego understand. But after that, the demon is unstoppable. You hear the tunes he played for you on the piano and violin, and you can't help but smile as you remember all the wonderful evenings you spent with Kalego.
–Wow, you're really good at this, – your mother says, clapping a few times. – Although it's definitely not the kind of music that suits our family.
–Are you still into rock? – you look around at the "calm and sweet" environment. – I thought you might have calmed down a little with your age.
–The fire in our blood will never be extinguished! – your father smiles and shows the symbol with two fingers. – But you definitely liked Kalego-san's music. It seems that you are very different from us after all, daughter.
–Yes, probably, – you grab a cup of tea and inhale the native aroma. – I know we talked about what happened after my "disappearance"… but I would like to know what I missed before I called you! I'm… I'm really sorry that I put too many things above my family. Mom, Dad… I'd just like to know how you're doing.
While you sit at the table with your parents and chat about everything, Kalego asks for permission to explore the house. You and your parents nod, not really hearing the question. The demon gets up and goes to look around.
Kalego doesn't really touch anything. He just watches. The cozy home is too different from his cold, big estate. There are pictures on the wall, bright colors, lots of different colors... the demon quietly climbs up the stairs, ignores the bedroom of the two older people and opens the door to the room... and immediately sighs.
A lot of posters with half-naked men (and even half-naked women) are hung on the walls. Kalego looks at them, their bright outfits, big smiles on their faces. They're full of energy. They have something that the demon doesn't have.
Kalego crosses his arms and sighs. He alone has more clothes on than all these people put together…
–K-Kalego-kun, what are you doing in my room?.. OH, T-THE DEMON KING!
You run up to Naberius and try to cover his eyes with your hands. When you don't succeed, you start trying to cover up the posters, but it was a stupid idea in the first place.
–I f-forgot the state I left my room in!" I thought my parents would take it all down!..
–M-m-m, don't worry. It's really my fault… I should have asked for permission first.
–I-it's fine, i-it's just... – you started taking down the posters and rolling them up. – Uh, it's a little disconcerting that you saw all this…
–Did you like all these people... when you were a teenager?
–Of course! I still like them! I love not only their music, but also their shows! They're all such interesting people! – you point to one of the half-dressed girls. – She used to be in a band, but now she's a solo singer! And these two men have their own agency. My tastes haven't changed much since I was a teenager, so I still enjoy the old performances of all these people!.. Well, at least I enjoyed it until I arrived in Hell... why?
–I was just thinking… I'm not like them, – Kalego looks around at the genuine smiles again. All these people seemed to enjoy what they were doing. – And I'm a little surprised that you ended up liking me.
–Well, I don't have a specific personality that you can't go beyond, – you giggle and continue to remove the posters. (You'll probably take them to Hell with you.) – I love "good men"! And you fit that type.
–Are you sure you know me well?
–Well, at least your "negative" sides are "positive" for me, – you smile slyly. – And you never did anything that really pissed me off. In the end, some things can be accepted... and with some, they just scream "no". Fortunately, there are no such "red flags" in your case.
–"Red flags"?..
–Um, it's a human phrase meaning…
Kalego stands with his arm around your shoulders and looks out the window. Children play in the backyard even at this late hour, having fun and having fun. You tell random stories that happened to you during your growing up. They're not very interesting, but the demon listens to them carefully anyway.
–It must be nice to wake up and see something like this... although it definitely needs thicker walls, – he sighs and touches his ears, the sharp tips of which are hidden in his hair.
–What did you see when you woke up?..
–M-m-m, mostly the face of another monster, since my uncle forgot to close the window in the hallway or some door again, – Kalego sighs. – And so… I saw the forest, the sky... nothing interesting.
You hug him tighter and press your cheek against his chest. You can hear the faint beat of his heart and smile faintly.
Suddenly, the stairs creak loudly, and you hear footsteps. After a few seconds, the door slowly opens and you turn your head to see your mother. The woman smiles faintly as she looks you and Kalego over, and cautiously steps into the room.
–Sorry to interrupt, – she says, looking over at the demon, who is trying to hide his slight embarrassment. – I was wondering... if both of you would stay the night... (Y/N), I... me and your dad would like to... have breakfast with you like before...
–Um, I... need to call my supervisor. We came here because of him. But I'll try to make it so... that we can spend some more time together.
In the next instant, loud screams are heard outside the window. Kalego almost groans in frustration and turns his head. Two demons and one boy rush down the road, happy.
You get out of the arms of Naberius (much to his regret) and run outside. You go out to the gate and shout, attracting the attention of the trio. Sullivan, with Iruma perched on his shoulders, makes a big circle, like an airplane, and stops almost in front of you.
–O-o-oh, there you are, (Y/N)! I felt an aura of boredom from here and knew you were with Kalego-kun!
–H-how did you spend your time? Iruma-kun?
–That was amazing! – the boy smiles and laughs at you. – I thought only the demon world was fun, but it wasn't! I didn't know… that there are so many interesting things in the human world...
–Oh, a familiar language at last! – your father is looking out of the house. – (Y/N)? Who is it?
–These are also people who helped me. And this is Iruma-kun, the boy I care about.
Your father makes eye contact with Iruma, Iruma looks back at him... and then they both smile. It seems that the charm of this boy knocks down absolutely everyone.
–You didn't say that there are so many interesting things in your world, – Opera appears in the zone of your vision. They don't have hats on, but they have small hairpins around their ears, like they're wearing some kind of jewelry. (It looks like they were fixed by Iruma, as they look a little crooked). – I found this beautiful stick for Kalego-kun, – they pick up a dog toy. – Do you think he'll like it?..
–Actually, we didn't want to interrupt your nice family conversation... but we have to.
–W-we're going home already... Sullivan-sama?
–Not really! – the demon-grandpa smiles broadly. – We decided to stay here until the end of the week! I want to learn many more things together with Iruma-kun! More shared memories! – he and Opera both raise their hands in the air at the same time. – So I want to warn you not to worry and keep in touch with your family.
–R-really? Sullivan-sama, thank you so much!..
–Don't thank me, but my grandson, – the demon tickles Iruma's leg. The boy laughs. – We'll be at a hotel nearby. I think Kalego-kun will be able to contact us if necessary. In the meantime... relax and have fun!
–Thank you! You too!
–So be it, – Opera puts the toy in his pocket. – I'll come to Kalego-kun`s soul a little later. Heh-heh-heh…
You wave to them with a big smile. After they disappear into the darkness of the street, you turn around and look at your parents. They're just as suspicious of seeing off the demons and the boy as your colleague was recently. Instead of any explanations, you rush to them to spend some more time with them... and let them know that you and Kalego-kun are staying the night.
–Can I sleep with Kalego-kun? – you are asking when a new day has come a long time ago. Your parents and you have been chatting for the past few hours, sipping tea that you remember tasting from your childhood. – I mean... he's myboyfriend, you two wouldn't be surprised if I shared a bed with him, would you?
–I don't mind, – your father looks at you with an innocent smile, and you already feel that something is wrong. – Except the couch we're sitting on now doesn't fold out. And the house doesn't have a double bed anymore. So you'll have to sleep in your room, and Kalego-san will sleep in the living room.
–You look tired, – the demon, who has been watching you all this time, puts the cup on the saucer and pats your cheek. – I hope you're talking about getting some sleep.
–Y-yes, you're right! And... you'll have to sleep on the couch, – you tap him on the shoulder.
–M-m-m... no.
–W-what do you mean?!
–I should sleep next to you. This is an unknown world to me, and I can't let you suffer from an unknown danger.
–It's a human world. I can't be attacked by a monster or anything like that here.
–Still, my instincts tell me to protect you, – he puts a hand on his chest. – Besides, I'm used to sleeping on the floor. A lot of times after training, I'd come home and just fall on the floor... because my uncle had stolen the carpet again to sell it somewhere, – he ground his teeth.
Your father and Kalego argue for a long time after that, you barely have time to translate their words. In the end, Naberius justifies everything by saying that sleeping on the floor is good for your back... and that the demon will never do anything nasty to you in your parents' house. Your father, who still doesn't fully trust Kalego, eventually gives up and lets the demon sleep next to you.
You walk into your room and feel the memories come rushing back to you. How many times have you come here when everyone else is already asleep, carefully make your way to the bed and fall asleep? Thoughts of hobbies that have occupied your entire day and half of the night take over for a second, and you don't immediately notice that Kalego has locked the door.
–M? What is it?
–It's naive to think I'm going to sleep on the floor when there's a bed, – he says, walking past you and pulling the curtains over the window.
–So what? Are you going to kick me out on the floor? – you're giggling.
–I would never do that, – Kalego says without humor. – As a last resort, you can always sleep on me. Fortunately, this is not the case.
He snaps his fingers and suddenly the bed is a double bed! You gasp in shock, then quickly nod. That's right, magic! While you're admiring, Kalego starts taking off his clothes. Before you know it, the demon is standing in the middle of your room in his underwear, his wings spread wide on all sides.
You cover your face with your hands and exhale convulsively. It's like one of your teenage fantasies! A beautiful demon appears in the middle of the night, looking with passionate eyes only at you!..
–I don't know what you're thinking, but I don't like it anymore.
–Y-you look amazing, Kalego-kun! – you giggle in embarrassment and look at him through your fingers. – I just didn't think you'd take off your clothes... almost completely... and in this situation.
–The clothes I'm wearing are very tight on my wings... it hurts.
–Let me kiss them to ease the pain, – you make soft kissing sounds.
–You're not a dog to heal this... but I'm practically, - he's suddenly next to you and kisses the top of your head. – But you can try if you want.
–Then get down! – you point to your bed. – I'll take care of you!
–Actually, I'd rather take care of you... but if that's what you want…
It lies down and spreads its wings in different directions. You sit on his lower back and bend over. You cover his neck with quick, light kisses, then move down and down to his shoulder blades. When you reach the beginning of the wings, Kalego flinches. You immediately tenderly kiss the dark skin that glistens in the barely penetrating moonlight.
You lovingly touch the wings, gently massage them with your fingers. Kalego exhales softly into the pillow, his gaze moving from one object in the room to the next. You giggle and suddenly attack his cheek with kisses.
The demon suddenly rolls over on his back, his hands on your waist.
–You said you wouldn't do anything inappropriate in my parents' house.
–I'm just making sure my favorite human doesn't fall over and hit its head. What are you talking about?
You lean in and place a quick kiss on his lips without breaking eye contact. Kalego has one hand on your waist, and he raises the other to stroke your cheek.
–Did you enjoy being in my world? – you ask softly, hearing his tail move slowly from side to side.
–Well, this place is much louder than many I've visited… I don't think I could have tried to enjoy it if it wasn't for you. Perhaps if I studied all of this better... together with you, I might be able to love your home world.
–I hope that someday humans and demons will be able to find common ground. I'm sorry you have to put up with the inconvenience, – you run your fingers over his wings.
You barely hide a scream when Kalego suddenly turns you on your side. You find yourself trapped in his wings and arms. Giggling, you snuggle closer to him and rest your head on his bare chest. His tail wraps around your leg.
–I'm so glad that I can finally give you a hug without any extra eyes.
–Me too…
You want to talk to him a little more. You want to know what things he liked the most, if he wants you to read to him the books he bought... but you're too tired for the day. As a result, you can only close your eyes and fall into a peaceful sleep.
Finally, you and your parents are reunited again.
*+*
–I thought the park would be quiet, but I was wrong.
You mumble vaguely and pull Kalego forward. Your parents are walking in front (since you forgot the road a little), with a basket and a blanket in their hands. (The demon tried to carry things, but after he was discovered sleeping peacefully on the floor with his clothes on, your parents didn't try to put pressure on him by allowing him to be close to you.) They decided to take the day off and spend it with you, especially since the weather is great.
You often went to this park as a child. The sight of familiar ducks makes you glow and yank Kalego to the side to look around the big lake. But before you can even take a step, a huge dog runs straight at you, barking loudly and opening its mouth with fangs!
It looks... familiar…
Suddenly, Kalego lifts you over his head as if you weigh nothing, and stares at the dog. He opens his own mouth and snarls, showing his fangs. The animal immediately sits down on the ground, its front paws sliding on the ground. The dog slows down and purses its ears before hurrying back to its owner, who also seems familiar to you…
This is your friend!
You wave your legs and Kalego lowers you to the ground. While he fights the dog with his eyes, you run towards the young man with happy cries. When the demon blinks and notices that you're gone, you're already hugging your old friend!
Kalego... freezes in place. He had expected this to happen. This is the city you grew up in. Of course, your old friends will be here! But still... still…
The demon feels an incredible desire to tear you away from this man. Hey, did you kiss him on the cheek?!.
–Kalego-kun, meet Atta! This is an old friend of mine! – you point to a man stroking and soothing his dog. – Atta, this is my boyfriend, Kalego-kun!
–Boyfriend? I thought you were only interested in work! – Atta pokes you in the shoulder. – But I'm glad to meet him! – he holds out his hand. – By the way, why are you talking to him in some strange language?..
–Kalego-kun, you have to shake his hand to say hello... – you turn to your friend. – He is from another country, he has a rather unusual accent, so it is unlikely that even the main native speakers will be able to understand him…
–I'm not going to shake hands with anyone I don't know. In addition, lower-ranked demons must first introduce themselves and bow down…
–He's not a demon, and we're not in a demon world, – you shrugged your shoulders. – Okay, if you don't want to do this, I won't force you. Hey, Atta, his family doesn't say hello to strangers like that. So just put your hand down.
–Weird, but okay… You like to collect strange things around you, (Y/N).
Kalego watches you and Atta walk together, chatting. The demon keeps repeating to himself that this is normal… you've seen him every day, and you probably won't ever see your friends again... and yet... and yet...
At the very least, he wants to put his arms around you and hold you close. Demons are selfish creatures. What else would you expect from someone who carries wolf blood?
Kalego sighs and decides to look around. Children running and playing, their parents sitting and chatting, couples enjoying a picnic... how loud it all is. However, suddenly the demon's eyes take in a wonderful view, and Naberius unwittingly takes a step forward.
Puppies... so many puppies!
Kalego feels Cerberion begging for freedom. His magic wants to come out and play too! The demon, against his will, unwittingly moves forward, towards small and cute creatures. In Hell, everything, even small animals, has claws and fangs so scary that they can frighten an adult. So Kalego's heart shivers a little when he sees someone so cute... even if snotty.
–(Y/N), – you quickly turn to him, – what is this?
–Oh, that? These are puppies! Little dogs! They don't look like the ones you might find in Hell, do they?
–Can I... look at them?
–Of course! If anything... here you are.
You leave your friend briefly to give Kalego a note. "I'm sorry, I don't understand your language. If necessary, I'll call my interpreter."
–Use this if someone talks to you. You can always come to me for help, – you get up on your toes and kiss him on the cheek. – I'll go and have a chat with my parents and Atta! If anything, his dog is very cute! You can pet her!
–I've already shown her who's dominant here. I don't think she'll be happy if I get my claws into her.
You look at his fingernails, giggle, and run away.
Kalego looks at a small aviary where silly puppies run around. Yes, dogs are raised differently in Hell... the demon looks at the people chatting next to the low portable fence and sits down next to one of the puppies. The little animal immediately yaps in interest and runs towards Naberius.
Kalego involuntarily sighs, remembering his communication with Cerberion. He had to beat his own magic to keep from dying from those sharp claws. Naberius cautiously holds out his hand, and the little creature hurries towards him on its small feet. Such a pathetic, weak creature... Kalego is looking at you.
In the human world, everyone is so weak... they are all so easy to kill.
Kalego flinches when a cold nose touches his fingers, and the next second, a warm tongue licks his palm. Naberius watches as the puppy wags its tail in a funny way and suddenly falls back, landing on the ground. It quickly gets up and hurries to lick the demon's fingers again.
They're all so small, so helpless… How did (Y/N) survive in Hell for so long? And what about Iruma? With bodies like theirs, they should have died from the first monster they saw.
–Hey, how do you like our puppies? They're pretty, aren't they?
Kalego turns his head and silently shows the piece of paper. The man who came up to him nods understandingly. He pulls out his phone and seems to want to write something, but for some reason stops his actions under the heavy gaze of the demon.
Kalego points to a nearby stick, and the man nods vaguely. The demon picks up a small object and looks at the puppies, who magically pay all their attention to him alone. Naberius raises his hand... and commands.
–Fetch.
Startled, the pups rush for the stick. Kalego sighs. I do not know if they quickly understood this command because of my incredible experience as a teacher... or because my order was pretty obvious.
–Wow, he's got talent! Did you see that?! Puppies actually brought him a stick!.. Mister, miste-e-er, I need your interpreter!..
You don't understand why you suddenly found yourself next to an aviary with puppies. But even more than that, you don't understand why you're explaining to their master that your demon can't train his little animals.
–H-how did you do that? These pups have never been trained in commands…
–It's hard not to listen to someone who is stronger, – Kalego gives you a hard look. – Plus, I literally grew up fighting a dog. I know how to get the right information to them… How are you? – he looks hard at Atta and your parents.
–Everything is fine! I didn't know Atta would become a fashion designer! He was a typical bully at school, and now he's such a sweet and pleasant young man… Hey, why are you growling?
–Demonic instincts, demonic instincts…
–O-o-oh, is someone jealous? – you're giggling viciously.
–Yes, – you even stumble from such straightforwardness. – In my grandfather's time, I could have just killed them all and taken them with me. What were the times like…
–You go to jail for murder here, Kalego-kun.
–Pf, as always, too many criminals are not professional.
You give him a silent pat on the shoulder.
You continue to enjoy a quiet day. Kalego is sitting next to you, his leg pressed against yours, which makes you feel his tail twitching every time you even interact with Atta. Fortunately, the demon is distracted by the dog, with whom he seems to be able to find a common language. They used to stare at each other at first, but now Kalego is playing with a big pile of fur with eyes and teeth.
Eventually, you return home, feeling Kalego staring at everyone with displeasure. It seems that your communication with Atta has greatly disturbed him. Luckily, in the end, your friend left safely with his dog and no one was injured.
Your parents said they would cook dinner, so you and Kalego decide to take a walk.
The demon likes the evening park much, much better. There are already a lot fewer people here, at least in certain parts where there are no lights... or signs... and it's very dark. But you're not afraid. Because Kalego holds your hand tightly and protects you. You enjoy the view of the moon in the sky, the sounds of nocturnal insects and the quacking of ducks that will soon be sleeping.
–Why do you look sad? Are you still mad that Atta kissed me on the cheek back then?
–D-don't remind me of that! How can he kiss someone else's woman like that?!
–Friends can kiss each other on the cheek, Kalego-kun…
–But not if they're friends of the opposite sex!...
–I see it differently, so no problem!.. And why would I need someone else when I have my own demon? – you grin and kiss his fingers.
Kalego looks at you strangely.
–I had to do it.
–Maybe I want to be in charge of this relationship…
Suddenly, the Kalego pushes you up against a tree, and you flinch. The demon smiles the way an incubus should. He leans down and breathes hot air into your lips.
–I prefer to follow tradition, my fair one. And I'm clearly stronger, so don't try to undermine my authority. As a demon, this really annoys me.
–Okay, okay, Kalego-kun, – you get up on your toes and try to kiss him, but he pulls away from you. – Did it really... hurt you?..
–No, I, – he pulls away from you and looks out at the lake. – I just thought... it's terribly sad that... you're... human.
He sighs and squeezes your hand, but still doesn't look at you.
–I don't mean that I wouldn't want you to be born someone else... at least I definitely get incredible pleasure when I just lick you, – you wince involuntarily and swallow in embarrassment. – I'm just saying... that you're very... weak. And you... people live so little.
Kalego shivers slightly and closes his eyes.
–I didn't think about it before, but... you're barely going to live a quarter of my life. After all, humans are mortal... and you will leave me... sooner than I would like.
He looks at you... and there's pain in his eyes. He takes your face in both hands and sighs so loudly that something starts to shake in your ears.
–I knew that before, but I just realized... how much I don't want to lose you, – he presses his nose to yours. – I'm sorry to spoil this moment, but... the human world has once again reminded me that... humans... are mortal. And I don't want you to leave me... and I don't think I can go on with my life if you do.
You reach out and hug his face back... and then squeeze his cheeks very hard. Kalego looks very funny when his lips suddenly become the same as a fish's. The next second, you pull his cheeks away with a loud groan.
–Kalego-kun, you really know how to spoil the mood! – you start poking him in the chest with your fingers. – But I know what you mean… I also... thought about it... and I decided that I would just ignore the passage of time! – you look him straight in the eye. – I will enjoy every second that I can spend with you! And I won't regret anything, even if I end up getting old and dying in your arms, and you don't change! Because... I want to spend my life with you, no matter how long that life lasts.
–Ah, you're so careless... – he sighs.
–I'm just trying to be positive... unlike someone, – you spread your hands to the side. – And, hey... I deserve a soothing kiss after what you said! Come to me!..
–Hey, a couple of tree huggers... you picked the wrong time for your snotty actions.
You turn your head and look at a small group of unsavory individuals. Your city... wasn't a safe place in your childhood. Nothing seems to change even after all these years…
–Who are they and what do they say? – Kalego slowly moves away from you.
–They're just local bullies. They'll probably want money or something… Come on, let's not waste time on them…
–Huh... do they think they can offend someone who is under my protection? – the demon is looking at people with bats and pipes. – How interesting…
–K-Kalego-kun, don't! You're going to kill them!..
–No one will see us here, will they? - the demon looks back at people who, not hearing your answer, start insulting you and coming at you threateningly. – Cerberion wanted to take a walk in this park from the very beginning…
Then you just close your eyes... because you don't want to see it. When you open your eyes, Kalego is standing with a book in the middle of the bodies lying around. He seems to be taking notes. W-well, at least all these people are alive... p-probably...
*+*
–Kalego-kun, I didn't expect this from you! How could you set us up like this?!
–Yes, Kalego-kun! As your senpai, I am very disappointed in you…
Kalego can only sit on his knees and endure the words of his superior and his senpai because they were telling... the truth. The demon wasn't supposed to use Cerberion, but he was so used to using his magic… And also, during the short battle, his hat had come off, so that his horns were visible in the light!..
But any danger that threatens his loved ones must be eliminated... hm-m…
–Hey, are you even listening to me, Kalego-kun?! – Sullivan leans forward and coughs in frustration. – Do I have to strip you of your bonus this month?
You're not going to give it away to me anyway…
–I was just thinking that (Y/N) is a human.
–That's news! – Opera pretends they're surprised.
–That's not what I'm talking about, – Kalego pinches the bridge of his nose. – I mean... she won't live very long... by demon standards. She'll be dead before I get old.…
The room is instantly filled with something heavy. The three demons look at each other. Suddenly, Sullivan stops being an egg and becomes the demon everyone fears.
–I've been... thinking about it, too, – he adjusts his glasses. – My Iruma-kun is worthy of becoming the most important demon, even though he is a human… But he still won't be able to live any longer than I do. As his grandfather, I have to do something.
–And you have... a plan?
The atmosphere becomes even heavier. Sullivan sighs heavily.
–I'm thinking about it... but it's too early to draw conclusions. I take it you're willing to do anything to spend as much time with (Y/N) as you can physically?
–Yes... Sullivan-sama.
Kalego's eyes are filled with determination. He sits down as if he has a deep respect for the demon in front of him. He is sitting on one knee, his hand pressed to his chest, looking straight into the eyes of his superior, waiting for orders.
Opera giggles and twitches their ears.
–O-o-oh, looks like we'll have to work together to extend the life span for Iruma-sama and (Y/N)~
–I can handle it... for the sake of... (Y/N), – Kalego says through gritted teeth.
Sullivan looks in surprise at the demon who is bowing respectfully in front of him. His dark eyes flash with determination. The older demon smiles.
–Well... I hope we do a great job together, Kalego-kun! For the good of my grandson and your (Y/N). I still want another great-grandson, and demon girls are so slow to grow up…
–Yes, I'll do anything, – his dark eyes sparkle, – for her sake.
*Bonus*
–By the way, Kalego-kun, for that matter… Can you check if humans and demons can have children?~ I noticed a very nice girl next to my grandson… Hey, where are you going? Kalego-kun?!.
(I found this picture on Pinterest, so I don't know the author. I'm sorry (ಥ﹏ಥ))
I saw it and then I thought… It would be very funny if Connor started licking the walls at the Eden Club, and the head of the club, looking at it, was just like, "Oh, my GOD, this android is PERFECT for my club. Such incredible licking skills still need to be searched for! Besides, our female clients will definitely like this face, it will be a success! So, call his boss quickly, we ARE BUYING OUT THIS GENIUS OF USING TONGUE!.."
And just at the end of the investigation:
Hank: "Okay, Connor, let's go, we need to… Connor, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
Connor: "I was created to fight deviants… And if it allows me to better understand their nature and catch them, then I…"
Hank: "Of course, I need extra money for beer, but NOT AT THIS PRICE!"
I just think about this situation and giggle. I do not know what is wrong with me.
I would write a fanfiction about it, but I don't think I'm capable of it.
I'm so thankful to find your blog especially since your Kalego fics are so awesome. Will it be possible to ask for a Kalego x Humanf reader something along the lines of something happening to the reader and Kalego needing to protect this weak and fragile human. I'm so sorry if you don't take requests! Also if you are busy then take as much time as you want! no rush whatsoever :) Thank yooouuuuuu
You knew it would happen sooner or later. You were surrounded by so many powerful demons, one of them definitely had to know that you were a human! And yet you were hoping that Balam or Dali would call you for a "serious conversation", but definitely not someone who can eat you up and not even choke!
You were shivering, but not from the wind and cold, even though you were on one of the school's open balconies. You couldn't even escape, because there is free air space on the side and back, and in front was your possible nightmare. Yes, if you were a demon, you would have been flying in the opposite direction from where Kalego was standing. But you're not a demon. You are a human being.
You ended up in the demon world on purpose. Even though you didn't think that ritual would work, you didn't say no when the demon Sullivan appeared and asked you to go with him. It looked like his grandson needed company.
In any case, no one is interested in the story of your entry into the demon world. It is much more important that you are ready to choose between your colleague and the infinitely fast flight of a stone down... the second.
You had a... strange relationship with Kalego. First you were afraid of him, then you respected him, then you were afraid of him again, then you admired him, then you were afraid of him… In short, he was the demon you couldn't help but be afraid of. He was strong, and he knew it. He did not hide behind smiles and playful phrases. He was serious and ready to jump into a fight if something happened.
This may have attracted you. Despite the rather cold attitude at first, Kalego was ready to teach you how to be a good teacher. He patiently explained everything you needed to know. It was even cute if you listened carefully, memorized everything the first time, and didn't ask stupid questions. And you didn't do it.
You even started to have some common interests with him! You were interested in absolutely everything in Hell, even the cute little cacti that Kalego grew. When the demon brought small potted flowers and proudly said they were "the little children of his primary child," you asked sheepishly if you could take one. Naberius looked at you for a long time, and then gave you a long lecture on how to take care of plants, and made you promise to take care of the cactus.
But at the same time, you couldn't get rid of the feeling of fear that blooms in you every few weeks. Perhaps if you were a demon like him, you wouldn't be so afraid. But you were human, so just the thought that he could tear you to pieces in a second made you mentally scream and cry.
Besides, the problem was that you were very weak. Weaker than the average person. You won't even be able to escape from it!
W-what are my last wishes?.. I c-can't even think about it…
You were shaking, feeling that you were about to die not from the demon's claws, but from a heart attack. Your face paled, and you all shrank like raisins. If you were asked whether you want to be on the training ground now or stay here, you would choose the former.
Kalego silently looked you over with his heavy gaze, and you swallowed. F-for now... peace. And I just thought that my life was finally getting better!..
You screamed so loudly when something heavy landed on you that you could even shout above the wind. You squeezed your eyes shut, ready to attack, but suddenly realized that the heavy object wasn't a weapon, Cerberion's claws, or a demon's hand. Was it... soft and fluffy?
You looked down and stared at your own shoulders, where an expensive-looking fur cape rested. You were opening your mouth to say something when suddenly the hood was thrown over your head and all the buttons were fastened, making it impossible for you to move.
He wants to steal me and eat me somewhere else!
You jumped up and down, but suddenly Kalego put his hands on your shoulders and forced you to turn around to face him. His eyes never softened or showed positive emotions, so there was no miracle this time either!
You felt heavy breathing on your face and knew that this was the end!..
–W-wait! – you screamed with all your might, feeling that you were starting to cough. You seem to have a cold. But what's the difference? You'll be eaten anyway! – B–before you do that, l-let me leave a last note! And, p-please bite me right in the carotid artery so that I die as soon as possible!..
Kalego suddenly tensed up, and you screamed in your head. M-I will be killed slowly and painfully!..
–What have you done, (Y/N), if I have to kill you? Did you fill out the paperwork incorrectly?!
–N-no, I did al-ll the reports right! I ev-ven double-checked them several times!
–That's great. So why should I kill you? Especially if I stick my fangs in your neck.
–B-because I'm human?..
It was... a mistake. You knew that as soon as you looked into the demon's eyes. They reflected a shock that seemed to break Naberius.
While Kalego was frozen in place and couldn't move, you quickly escaped from his grip and ran as fast as you could towards the exit. More precisely, you jumped, because the cape strongly constrained your movements. It wasn't that small, but it was heavy enough that you would have some difficulty moving around.
You somehow managed to open the door and ran out into the corridor. You threw off your clothes and ran towards the office belonging to Balam, but before you could run even one-eighth of the way, you sat down on the floor with incredible shortness of breath.
You've always been a weak person, and while looking for ways to heal your body, you decided to summon a demon... yes, it's a strange way to solve the problem, but let's not talk about it. Sullivan has agreed to help you, but only if you look after his "grandson" and keep an eye on some of the personalities at school. Well, you've kept your end of the bargain. All your major illnesses were cured, but you were still far from the physical state of a "standard person".
So you failed. Kalego literally caught up with you at a leisurely pace. You could hear his footsteps and feel the tears welling up in your eyes. You didn't want to cry, but you still sobbed in the middle of an empty hallway, as all the students had already gone home or were working in clubs.
You stare at the floor, watching the small drops fall on the wooden surface. Kalego didn't like crybabies, so you didn't want him to get angry before eating you.
When the demon stopped next to you, you wanted to ask him to do everything quickly, but you couldn't even get that out of yourself. You were ready to die, but suddenly Naberius picked you up in his arms, and you were almost in a second in one of the rooms in Royal One.
He threw you on the sofa, objects flew around the room. A minute passed, during which you were afraid to move, and then a cup of hot tea landed on the table in front of you, from which black steam was emitted.
Kalego landed in the chair across from you, and you might have thought he didn't hear what you said, but it was absolutely clear from the look on your face that he heard every part of your mistake.
–What are you doing? – he barked, and you almost fell off the couch. – You should drink your tea while it's hot. Do you want to get sick?! I've had enough of that time when you were lying in bed for two weeks after five minutes of standing on the street!
You sat down and touched the cup with trembling hands. A pleasant smell enveloped your nostrils and you swallowed.
The demon continued to stare at you with a hard stare.
–So... you're human?
–Y-you don't know? – you were shaking in a panic when he stared into your eyes. – I t-thought you knew! I t-thought you called me here to tell me I could dig my own grave with my own hands!
–I wanted to tell you I loved you!
–Wh-what?!
–What? – he looked at you not like a man in love, but like... your future homicidal maniac. – I needed to act quickly. Some of my colleagues, – he ground his teeth, – wanted to do it before I did. Of course, I would have preferred to invite you to a restaurant with good music and high-end food... but I didn't have the time. But it doesn't matter anyway, – his eye twitched as he looked at you. – (Y/N), you want to tell me that you're not just a weak demon, but a weak human, so the probability of you dying increases?! And yet you're constantly taking on a burden that some of my idiotic colleagues can't handle?!
You drank your tea in a hurry and hoped it was poison. There was a long lecture waiting for you, at the end of which you had to kiss Kalego so that he would stop scolding you, and after such an unexpected action on your part, you also fainted…
*+*
–What? Did she go into the woods? Alone?! – Kalego dug his fingernails into the table, leaving long footprints.
–I don't think it's such a big deal, – Shichiro shrugged. – Plus, she's with Iruma-kun and his friends. I think they're being protected by the Demon King, – Balan snorted. – So it's unlikely anything will happen to them.
–They may be protected by the Demon King, – Kalego began to speak and started walking towards the tent's exit, – but that doesn't mean he's protecting (Y/N)!
Naberius went outside and breathed in the fresh air. It's been a long time since he found out you were human. Kalego proved that his feelings were real, so he couldn't let his love do any hard work or risk herself. He'd rather die than break his promises... at least that kind of promise.
At the moment, the demons were in a "wilderness survival" class that lasted for several days. The camp was set up a long time ago, but the students had long since dispersed and explored nature. They could only return to the main camp if they were seriously injured or unable to handle the situation on their own.
"But they did something similar during Harvest Festival!" Well, that's true, but then they were in a controlled forest where there was a lot of food and relatively predators. Right now, they were surrounded by completely wild nature and quite strong monsters.
Even though the territory was still under the control of the demon teachers, the forest wasn't under their control. And so Kalego couldn't let you get hurt, much less die. You were weak even relative to other people. You wouldn't survive as a demon here for a day!
Naberius looked around the campsite, at the teachers who were giving advice to students who came to ask for help or receive medical treatment. Kalego froze for a second, and then Cerberion appeared next to him. The dog knew your scent very well (after spending a lot of time with you, it's impossible to forget that), so it instantly led its owner along the right route.…
Initially, you were just planning to take a walk with Iruma and his friends. Photos... more photos! Sullivan might not be able to attend these classes, but he wanted to see everything. So you were forced to work as a cameraman/photographer/babysitter and something else. But you didn't complain. At least it was all so funny and fun!..
And then you're suddenly lost and left in the middle of the forest with nothing but a camera…
You shivered as a light breeze brushed your skin. You were never a strong person... which is why you summoned a demon to help fix your health. Unfortunately, Sullivan didn't know how to do this completely, but he could show you the wonderful world of magic! You couldn't refuse!
If you knew there were so many dangers here, maybe you wouldn't have agreed… On the other hand, if you didn't go here, you wouldn't have met Kalego! So it wouldn't be so bad…
–Apchee!
You sighed and looked at the snot that was running out of your nose. Lowering the camera, you took out a napkin and quickly blew your nose. You could get sick from any little thing, which is why Kalego sometimes looked like an overprotective mom, and not like your partner.
You look around for Iruma and his friends. You were distracted by some bright berries, and the energetic children ran far away from you. You coughed a couple of times, feeling a slight sore throat. You opened your mouth to call out to them... but you definitely called out to the wrong person instead…
You sensed someone's presence and turned around. You turned your head... and saw a huge monster that clearly wanted to taste human flesh!
You swallowed and tightened your grip on the napkin. You tried to use the defensive artifact that Kalego gave you... but something told you that it would be better and safer to start running!
And so you did. You turned around, dropped your napkin, and ran as fast as you could from the monster that was already drooling. Remembering your PE lessons at school, you used all your strength to escape from danger as quickly as possible…
Except that you were still a weak, pathetic person, and your opponent was a huge monster that had more eyes than you had hair on your head, so you definitely wouldn't be able to run away from it. Even if you weren't... human.
Your breathing quickly faltered, your legs began to give out, and you almost fell several times. Cold air filled your lungs, causing you to cough more frequently, drawing the monster's attention. You could feel your heart beating fast somewhere near your temples. It took time to use the protection... you wouldn't have had time!..
The ground behind you shuddered, and you fell... straight into familiar hands. Turning your head slightly, you looked at the ground split in two. The monster growled and tried to get closer, but a single snap of his fingers caused it to bend under the Cerberion's claws.
You watched as the creature that tried to kill you... was destroyed by a huge amount of magic.
You were about to apologize for foolishly putting yourself in danger when Kalego pulled you closer to him and frowned. You could feel his entire body tense up. In the next second, he turned around and used magic, the lightning hit the monster that jumped out of nowhere.
–Looks like they have a better sense of smell than demons, – Kalego smiled wryly as he looked at the monsters. – They were able to smell the wonderful smell of human flesh... – you trembled at the words. – But I'll have to disappoint them, – the demon held out a hand, and the Cerberion opened all three of its mouths. – Because it belongs only to me!
The sounds of battle filled your ears. Roars, screams, more screams... you could hear Cerberion moving from side to side, lightning piercing the air... The unpleasant smell filled a small part of the forest, but Kalego pressed your face closer to him, so soon you stopped feeling anything with your nose.
The battle wasn't long. It just couldn't be that long. Naberius wouldn't let some pathetic monsters defeat him. Kalego leaned over and looked at you, and you heard a soft, relieved sigh. He gently lifted your head, holding your chin with two fingers…
–Where's your brain gone?
You felt your cheeks being squeezed hard by two fingers. You tried to get out of the demon's grip, but it was useless. Kalego put one hand on his belt, the other he continued to hold your face. You waved your arms, trying to get free, but it was all useless.
Naberius sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. He looked at you, still trying to wriggle out of his grip, and then finally let go. You shouldn't have gone far. Kalego draped his warm cloak over you and then held you so close that you could hear the sound of his heartbeat.
In his arms, you finally feel the warmth you've been dreaming of for so long. Your light cloak definitely didn't save you from the coolness of the forest. It was safe and comfortable in his hands. You would give anything to continue to be embraced by this demon. And so that he does not go far away from you, you hugged him back, hugging his tall figure with your hands as much as possible.
He was a strong, high-ranked demon. You were a simple, weak person. Perhaps in another world, he and you were never meant to meet. But here and now, you and he are together... and both of you were fine with it.
You froze, feeling something approaching. No, not a monster or anything like that. You tried to restrain yourself... and then still coughed awkwardly into his clothes several times. Naberius lowered his head and looked at you with a sad look.
–What can I do with you? – he sighed and gently stroked your cheeks, which had suffered from his grip. – You're so weak that sometimes I'm afraid you'll sneeze too hard and damage your lungs.
–Then you just need to hold me close and keep me warm and safe, – you pressed your cheek deeper into his clothes and hugged him tighter. – Um... we agreed, right?..
–Well, that sounds better than anything this school has to offer me, – Kalego chuckled and patted you on the head. – Wait…
You coughed nervously to the side and at the same time felt what the demon felt a few moments earlier. You had a fever. How you got sick so easily was still a mystery to you, but you've learned in your entire life that it's not something to be trifled with.
Kalego sighed and pressed his cool hands to your burning face. He wrapped you more tightly in his cloak before sitting down and nodding at his back. You carefully climbed on top of him and wrapped your arms around his neck. You pressed yourself against his neck and exhaled... and then abruptly pursed your lips and muttered an apology, trying to open your mouth as little as possible.
–Relax, my weak human, – Kalego chuckled, getting up and starting to carry you on his back. – I won't get sick for such a stupid little thing. I'm not you.
–T-thank you... Kalego… So think about it, was it sarcasm or, ahem, no…
–You're capable of sarcasm in any state, so I'll leave that question unanswered…
You wanted to giggle, but froze in horror when another monster came out from behind the bushes and opened its mouth to devour you and Kalego. You were ready to jump off its back and hit the ground so that the demon would have a chance to fight…
–I am out of time!
Naberius raised his hand... and slapped the creature's face with all his strength! And while the monster stared at Kalego in shock, the demon silently passed by as if nothing was happening. When the monster tried to attack again, Naberius just looked at it... and the creature decided to get as far away from here as possible before it ended up just like the "relatives" of it.
You turned around and looked at the monster… You turned around and hugged Kalego tighter, snuggled up to him and inhaled his scent... while you still could. You started to feel worse and worse. It looks like while everyone else is running around and having fun, you'll be lying in bed... as usual.
Fortunately, you always have a demon to take care of you. Kalego was always there for you when you were sick or feeling unwell... and he will always be there for you no matter what happens to you. And you'll be there for him, too... well, just like that. Not that you can give the great demon anything but yourself…
Although... what else did Kalego need from you other than yourself?
Post-credits scene.
–You're still sick, aren't you? – you giggled at the demon.
it's my first time writing...can you make a short where Gojo is female and the y/n is male or I don't know without gender??? as well as a change of gender
M-m-m, I'm aware that this message was sent to me about 15 years ago, and most likely this person no longer remembers this request, but… I once said that I do everything on time, huh? Right, NO!
~
You were humming to yourself while actively working with the broom. The leaves won't get themselves out of the way, so you had to help them. This was your job, so you didn't see it as such a big problem…
When the knife suddenly flew past you, you abruptly jumped back and clutched the broomstick to yourself, shivering slightly. You turned your head and swallowed, looking at the girl sitting on the porch of one of the many buildings, grinning broadly at you.
Gojo Satoru... a great sorcerer born with Six Eyes and Limitless... and a girl.
Not that you have a problem with the fact that the Gojo clan heiress and future great warrior is a girl… You didn't really care, to be honest. The problem was rather that she was constantly pestering you... and you didn't know if your heart was beating faster from fear or from love.
Satoru really was... beautiful. Even at this age, when she wasn't even a teenager yet. Her bright blue eyes, long eyelashes, soft fluffy white hair… You quickly turned away so that you wouldn't have to stare at her.
–Hey, hey! Isn't throwing a knife at you enough of a hint? Look at me at last!
–Gojo-sama, I don't understand what you want from me, – you muttered as you went back to work. – I can grant your request if you want it so badly, but I'm sure your maids can handle it better.
–I'm not sure they can help me with that, – Satoru said, hugging her legs and squinting at you. – They are all women! And you're a boy!
–W-what do you mean?..
You almost dropped your broom when Satoru suddenly appeared next to you. A smirk appeared on her beautiful face. Her heavenly eyes twinkled as she began to quickly approach you. You grabbed the broom as a weapon and defensive "wall" and started to move back, but the girl continued to approach you at an incredible speed.
As a result, you hit the wall of a building with all your strength... there are a lot of them here, you didn't know what exactly it was intended for.
–So... (Y/N)-ku-u-un, you can't run away from me now, – Satoru giggled.
–Y-you know my name?!.
–Of course! You're the only child here who isn't related to me!
–S-so what's your request to me? – you tried to merge with the wall. – I r-really don't think I can do anything better than your trained maids…
The girl looked at you with shining eyes... before starting to look at the floor. Her entire body seemed to be shackled by unease and embarrassment. Satoru began to roll from heel to toe and back again, her yukata bouncing with each movement.
–Well... um…
She grabbed her white hair, now loose and sticking out in all directions, and hid her face behind it. Her skin seemed to have turned a rosy hue. You looked around uncertainly... and suddenly realized that you were near the building where the elders were holding their meetings.
–G-Gojo-sama? – you chuckled nervously, hoping this would all be over as quickly as possible. If the elders see you chatting with the clan heiress, you may be deprived of dessert!..
–Well... um-m... I want to kiss you!
You almost fell to the floor from such a statement. You stood with your broomstick on the floor, shivering slightly, looking at Satoru and not believing that you had heard her correctly. She wanted to kiss... you? An untalented sorcerer who came here from another clan because your own family kicked you out in disgrace? She, the most powerful sorceress in the future?!
–Um... Gojo-sama, this is a funny joke, but…
–Freeze! – she grabbed you by the shoulders and pushed you against the building. She had to stand on her toes to do it. – You're not going anywhere until I get my kiss!
–W-why do you even want to kiss me?! – you could feel your cheeks starting to burn with embarrassment. Sometimes you've thought about how Satoru's soft, pink lips would feel, but you've never really thought about actually kissing her!
–I told you! You're the only boy my age who isn't related to me! Besides... my mother always reads me fairy tales where the "prince charming" kisses the "princess". I want to understand how it feels!
–G-Gojo-sama, you're obviously the "prince charming" out of the two of us…
–That's not true! – she shook her head, and her hair slapped her cheeks. – I'm tired of being the "strongest"! I don't want to train, I want to sleep in a coffin, and then be found in a couple of hundred years and kissed!
–Um, this isn't exactly something that anyone should strive for…
–Anyway! If prince charming doesn't want to come to me, then I'll go to him! – Satoru grabbed your cheeks and you screamed. – And you're not running away from me!
You tried to escape, but it was all in vain. You could hit Gojo with a broom, of course, but then her father would beat you up. So you could only squeeze your eyes shut and hope that you wouldn't be buried alive for such behavior.…
–Satoru-chan, what are you doing?
You let out a sigh of relief and rolled down the wall when the girl was suddenly lifted up. Satoru started twitching her legs and arms, she screamed and tried to get out, but her mother held her tightly in her grip. When the woman looked at you, you were already kneeling down and bowing low to her.
–I-I'm sorry, Gojo-sama! I didn't mean to do anything bad to your precious daughter! I j-just didn't dare resist her order!..
–I know, (Y/N), – the woman glanced at Satoru, who was trying to bite through her sleeve. – I think we're going to have a serious conversation, my dear.
–No-o-o-o-o! – the girl began to twitch more actively. – I want my kiss! I want to feel like a real princess!..
–The empress's throne awaits you, Satoru-chan, – the woman dragged her daughter away. – Just wait a couple of years.
–No-o-o-o-o!..
You watched as Satoru was whisked away... and only when she disappeared somewhere around the corner of the building. You put your hand to your heart... and felt it beating fast.
You felt relieved... and disappointed at the same time. Perhaps this was the only opportunity for you to get a kiss from the princess of the sorcerer world – from Satoru Gojo-sama…
Or not.
–I always get mine!
You turned on your side and looked sleepily at the figure that was sitting on the windowsill. You sat up and looked in surprise at the little girl who had crept into your small bedroom... and was now looking at you with a determination that scared you beyond belief.
You flinched when Satoru suddenly jumped down on your bed and sat down next to you. You could feel her body causing the mattress to buckle. A pleasant smell filled your nostrils as Gojo abruptly shook her hair. She moved closer to you, her nose touching yours. You held your breath, not daring to move. Maybe if you don't move, she'll think you're dead... and walk out of here.
–G-Gojo-sama... this is a very, very bad idea…
–I'm the princess of all sorcerers, – she grinned. – I can do whatever I want! Besides... nannies said that the boys are ugly and disgusting, and that I should stay away from them. But you're only dirty and disgusting if you fall into the mud while you're cleaning. But then you get funny, so that's fine with me!
–S-so, you've made me fall all these times, right?..
Satoru grinned and leaned towards you. Her lips brushed yours for just a second... before she jumped back, covered her mouth with her hand, and gasped loudly. It seems that this small movement was enough to make her heart beat faster.
–Wh-what?..
Gojo stared at you for a long time before jumping out of the window and never appearing again. You noticed that her ears were incredibly red... as was her entire face.
Or not so "never".
She showed up a few days later, very confused and shy... and again she was sitting on your windowsill at night. You sighed, grabbed your blanket, and draped it over her shoulders, muttering something about how the nights were cold.
Satoru covered her face with her hands and exhaled loudly. She looked at you through her fingers... and then mumbled an apology.
–W-wait, Gojo-sama, I'm not quite awake... I need to clean my ears to make sure I heard you correctly.
–Ha-ha... very funny. You're bullying your princess, you know?
–I just want to make sure I didn't dream what you said, Gojo-sama. So... why are you here?
Satoru exhaled and looked you in the eye. The two heavenly circles shone in the moonlight.
–I, uh, I'm here to apologize. I-I guess... that was kind of rude of me... B-but you're my only chance to kiss!
–Gojo-sama, I'm sure you'll have a lot more good candidates to kiss…
–N-no! That's not true! – Satoru shook her head. – The elders never allow me to meet whoever I want to meet! And so it's better that my first kiss will be because I want it, even if it's not with the person I love, than it will be with someone else.… who was chosen by the elders.
A kiss with a man she doesn't love… You sighed and shook your head.
–Gojo-sama, go to bed. I'm not angry or anything. I just don't want the elders to kill me for touching the princess' lips…
–I won't let you get killed! You're funny! – she smiled broadly. – I didn't play with you, but even so, you look more interesting and fun than all my playmates put together!
–I don't think I am…
–You're wrong! – she hit you on the shoulder and you felt pain. – Oh, I didn't mean to!.. But is it my fault that men are so weak?
You looked at her and didn't say anything. You also lay on your side... and tried to sleep. But nothing happened.
–Hey, hey, you can't sleep now! I want to talk! You're not going to sleep while your princess wants to talk, right?
You slowly sat up and looked at her... and accepted the situation. And also with what was waiting for you in the future. You could have been an ordinary servant, you could have just performed simple tasks... but for some reason, Satoru Gojo was interested in you. And she came to talk to you every night... until she went to school.
But you didn't think you could get very far from her... did you?
*+*
The sound of high heels distracted you from your work. You looked from the documents in your hand... to the approaching figure.
–Gojo… sama?
A broad smile appeared on the handsome face. This is the face… it became really beautiful. Satoru was getting prettier and prettier every year, especially every year that you didn't see her... school took a long time, so she practically didn't visit the manor... and didn't see you.
Now Satoru towered over you... even without her heels. She's changed... and so have you. You haven't swept any paths in a long time, you've worked with documents and other servants... but your status was still much lower than Gojo's.
You put away the papers and hurried to bow, but you didn't have time. The girl laughed and hugged you in her arms, as if you were her old friend, as if you had the right to be called her friend.
–Hey, what's up with the face, (Y/N)-kun? – she slapped you on the cheeks, and you felt a soft, gentle female hand... and pain. – I've finally arrived at this boring manor to pick you up! The future Empress needs a good adviser!
–Uh, Gojo-sama, did you hit your head on the way here?..
Satoru looked at you for a long time and then flicked her forehead. This small movement left a mark on your skin.
–I've been told all my life that I'm a great sorcerer, that I'm a princess of sorcerers... but they forget that "princess" can be more than just a tool or a weapon in politics, – she clenched her hand into a fist and looked at you seriously. – I'm the only heir of the Gojo clan... so I'll be the empress someday. So now I'm not the weak-willed toy of the elders that can be married off, I'm the future ruler!
She held out her hand and smiled broadly.
–I know you've changed a lot in the time we haven't seen each other, (Y/N)-kun. You've even been promoted! But I can see in your eyes, – she leaned forward and pressed her nose to yours, – that you're as much of a fool at heart as I used to talk to at night!
–Thank you for the compliment, Gojo-sama…
–Oh, come on! I say this with love! – she laughed, just like the little girl years ago who had accidentally fallen off the windowsill and sprawled on the ground. – Come on! I want you to show me the manor!
Princess Satoru Gojo. She was the one whose wishes you had to fulfill as a servant in her manor. Even if she just wanted to talk to you in the middle of the night, you had to open your eyes and listen to her chatter until she wanted to leave. When you were accepted into the Gojo clan, you swore that you would serve their main branch faithfully, including the young girl.
Princess Satoru Gojo. She was the most powerful sorcerer and the person capable of destroying this world. She was a symbol of beauty and strength, and gave hope to female sorcerers for their great future. And despite all these statuses, she kept coming back to you, even though she could have been anywhere else. Perhaps the sweets you have prepared have completely captured her heart.
(Y/N): "Kakashi! Answer me quickly! Which would you prefer: your book or me?"
Kakashi, after a moment`s pause: "Ahem, of course you, my dear"
(Y/N): "..."
(Y/N), indignantly: "I-I knew it! You dont love me at all! Your perverted books are more important to you than me! Im divorcing you!"
Kakashi, coughing awkwardly: "Ahem, I thought we weren`t even married..."
(Y/N): "Oh, then we need to get married. I suggest we do it right now!"
Kakashi, who was dragged away: "I feel like I`ve been tricked somewhere... again. Like when you said I couldn't move a whole closet of erotic books, and then all your stuff somehow ended up in my apartment, and you started living with me…"
(Y/N), confused and worried: "I-it seems to me… I like Amajiki-kun! I m-mean... I love him! An-nd I think that you two c-can help m-me..."
Mirio and Nejire: *exchange glances with each other*
Mirio and Nejire: "Oh, welcome to our club! We finally found our leader!"
Mirio: "I knew that whispering in your ear while you were sleeping was very effective!"
Nejire, taking out a laptop and turning on the presentation on it: "Don't worry! I've already planned your whole wedding! Don't pay attention to the red font, these are, ahem, my personal improvements…"
Perhaps you are a little inadequate. Well, just a little bit. But how can you resist when you have a huge three-headed dog in front of you that you definitely need to pet? And even the scary and frightening owner of it couldn't scare you!
~
Dog! Dog, dog, dog!
You glared at Kalego, who was checking out homework assignments. The demon noticed you a long time ago, but he chose to ignore you. He was still hoping that you would go away and leave him alone.
You were just an ordinary student at Babyls, just a demon who planned to calmly finish training, get some ranks, and walk away. At least that was the plan as soon as you got here.
But then... then you saw Kalego.
And no, you didn't fall in love with him or anything. You're not even interested in the demon... but in his dog.
And what if this dog had three heads, shone gold and could easily bite your face off? It was so cute that you couldn't resist! And even the fear of Kalego receded as soon as you imagined the huge dog that you could squeeze and hug!
–Kalego-sense-e-e-ei…
Naberius exhaled loudly and turned his head towards you. You've been drooling outside his office for some time, peeking through the half-open door. The demon couldn't ignore you anymore.
–What?
–D-dog… I want... dog…
–Do I look like the owner of the animal shelter? If you want a dog, go talk to Shichiro or something!
–No... but you have... the dog.
Kalego blinked a couple of times. He looked you over carefully and tried to make sure you were adequate. But your eyes continued to shine with delight as you stared over Naberius' shoulder... and that definitely said something was wrong with you.
–If you want to distract someone, don't do it with me, – he growled and continued to stare at his homework.
You didn't listen to him... you decided to go into the office. At the same time, a huge golden creature with three heads appeared in front of you. Cerberion growled at you, its paw raised to push you away. You tilt your head back, looking directly into one of the three pairs of eyes.
This action... was your teacher's mistake.
Kalego looked up when he heard a strange sound. He expected you to start fighting Cerberion to continue being in the demon's office for some reason, but instead you... started petting his dog?
Kalego watched in shock as you murmured in delight about the manifestation of his magic. Your fingers were deep in the golden wool, scratching everything you could reach. Cerberion awkwardly turned around and looked at its master, who was still in shock. Since no further commands were given, the big dog turned back to you... and then lay down at your feet!
The dog!
You were practically shouting with joy. Standing on your toes, you tried to reach the big golden ear and scratch the fur around it. Your tail was actively whistling and moving back and forth, just like the dog's tail. Both of you were so happy! You were ready to enjoy what was happening forever, even if it meant that your hands would fall to the floor from fatigue!
The entire cabinet jumped when Cerberion fell on its back to show you its belly. You squealed with joy, because the dog accepted you as its friend so quickly! You walked around its huge body and started scratching its belly, feelinf sad that you only had two hands.
Kalego... watched. He was watching the scene and wasn't sure if his eyes were all right. Normally, Cerberion was aggressive towards anyone who entered its master's territory... yet his own magic gave up so easily to you?
Kalego frowned. Was it because of your magic? Or did you use some kind of potion? Maybe some trick? The demon watched your every move and quickly realized that it was only a matter of professional hands.
And that really pissed him off. If his most powerful weapon behaved like this every time, then he would just be left defenseless!
–Cerberion... to the foot.
The dog stood up and looked at Kalego pleadingly, but Kalego didn't repeat the command. Cerberion gave you a sad look before walking over to Naberius and disappearing behind him, giving you one last look before waving its tail happily. You stared at your hands, which had just been stroking the silky golden fur, and sighed loudly.
–(Y/N), – you raised your head and stared awkwardly at Kalego from your spot on the floor, – am I speaking softly? I told you to get out of here.
–But your dog was so happy! – you waved your hands in frustration. – Let me stay at least for Cerberion's sake! I promise I won't bother you, sensei!
He grabbed you by the collar of your clothes and dragged you across the floor toward the exit.
You didn't resist. Instead, you started digging in your pockets until you got the item out.
–Sense-e-ei, and if we can reach an agreement?
Kalego turned his head and saw in your hands... a cactus. His eye twitched. How dare you... keep the poor thing in your pocket all this time?! This one needed fresh air and water, not your dirty pocket!
–I don't accept bribes, – and with that, he threw you out into the corridor, but without hurting the cactus in your hands.
You sat still and stared in front of you... then you got up and left, holding the plant carefully.
Well... maybe you'll get lucky next time?..
*+*
–Teach me how to pet Cerberion.
–S-sensei?..
You definitely didn't expect Kalego to call you to his office. You certainly didn't think that he would be the one who would ask. You blinked and squinted a couple of times, trying to figure out if this was really Kalego Naberius, your sensei.
–Cerberion has been whining for days, – the demon admitted reluctantly. – I can't work at this rate. For some reason, it doesn't like the way I stroke. So I want you to teach me your magic tricks.
You squinted harder, but now for different reasons. Perhaps... perhaps this was your chance! If you lie to Kalego, you can come here and stroke Cerberion, ostensibly showing the demon how to properly scratch his dog!..
–And don't even think about trying to deceive me, – Naberius pointed a sharp fingernail at your forehead a couple of times. – This will be just one lesson on how to pet dogs properly. No more, no less.
–H-how did you know? – you sighed, rubbing your forehead.
–It's written all over your face, – Kalego snapped his fingers, and Cerberion appeared behind him. "So I'm waiting.
The second the dog saw you, it immediately wagged its tail happily, but it didn't dare walk away from its owner. Then the demon stepped aside and pointed at you, and Cerberion instantly ran up to you, knocked you to the floor and started licking you. You happily wagged your tail in response and clung to the nearest patch of golden fur before scratching the spot.
Kalego was skeptical.
–I don't have time for this.
–T-then help me up, sense-e-ei!..
You held out your hand and waved it for help. Naberius sighed, walked over to you, and with one sharp movement, pulled the Cerberion out from under him and set you on your feet. You let out a sigh of relief, and then you were pinned to Kalego as the dog began to actively sniff you, unwittingly trying to knock you down.
The demon could only sigh at all of this... again.
In the end, Kalego sat down next to you and Cerberion on the floor. You started showing him how to properly pet dogs, especially such large ones. Naberius watched your every move carefully, listened to your every word, and said nothing. You felt a little awkward because the other demon didn't try to comment on the situation.
As you sat next to Kalego and taught him, you gradually began to feel something akin to a connection with this usually gloomy and serious demon. Cerberion, which was nearby, definitely brought you and your teacher closer together in some way. You thought about it for a while... and eventually came to the conclusion that it wasn't so bad after all.
You were scratching the dog's neck and accidentally came across Kalego's fingers tangled in the fur. You immediately jumped up and hugged the limb to your chest. The demon just rolled his eyes and continued scratching the fully enjoying display of his magic.
You could feel your heart beating faster for some reason. Perhaps because you've never seen someone pet their own dog with such tenderness. It was definitely cute.
You didn't know how much time had passed. But even if the night started abruptly outside the window, you didn't want to finish.
Kalego at some point completely forgot that you were around as soon as you told him the basics. He grabbed the fur with his fingers and pressed his face to the side of the Cerberion, which let out a small squeak. Naberius closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his fingers stroking the dog lovingly.
You looked at him and wanted to capture this moment not only in your memory, but also in the memory of your phone. However, you were afraid that any move you made might just result in you being kicked out of here... so you sat and admired everything in silence.
But even that didn't save you.
Kalego suddenly opened his eyes and looked at you. For a second, you saw the tenderness and love in his eyes, which quickly disappeared as soon as he stared at you.
–Well, thank you, (Y/N). You can go now.
–No-o-o! – you're holding onto Cerberion's paw.
–It's late, it's time for you to go home... – he grabbed you by the leg and started trying to pull you away from the dog.
–I'll make it home even at night!..
–As your sensei, I can't let you walk down the street late…
–T-then take me home!..
–You think I don`t have anything better to do?!
He yanked you, and you still had to let go of the dog's paw. Kalego dragged you across the floor to the door, then picked you up and put you in the hallway. He watched you dust yourself off, then looked you straight in the eye…
–I hope you didn't throw that cactus in the trash.
–N-no! It's on my windowsill! Oh, recently it also started to grow a flower!..
–So you're taking good care of it, – you didn't see it wrong... the demon smiled. – This species has very beautiful flowers, so try to make sure that this one has enough sun and water.
You could only nod. With that, Kalego closed the door noiselessly.
After a while, you looked at the pictures in the flora textbook, trying to figure out what your cactus would soon look like, which was definitely going to bloom soon. At that peaceful moment, you heard footsteps and immediately looked up, recognizing the demon by the sound.
Kalego has been looking at you for a long time. He glanced at the book in your hands and smiled slightly, but only out of the corner of his mouth. Then he looked back at you and…
–I think... I still don't fully understand your techniques. Cerberion is still complaining. So I guess… that we'll need to meet a couple more times... (Y/N).
Your eyes shone so much that even Kalego allowed himself another small smile.
–S-sure, I'll help you, sensei!
You came to him again and again to play with Cerberion... And maybe in the end these meetings will turn into something that you communicated more with Kalego himself than with his "pet"?..
