Yes Yes, They Helped But Were Kinda Acting Like Nothing Happened Ig??? Ooh That's True, As The First

umbra.

summary: You offer your blood to a wounded vampire in an alleyway, and now Ruggie can’t seem to leave you alone.

notes: 1.9k, fic, cw for violence, a short fic about Ruggie for @ridhearts​ fantastic vampire au!!

Ruggie hisses as he rips out a chunk of wood lodged in his shoulder, throwing it down the dim alley he’s currently hiding in. 

Stupid vampire hunters, thinking their stakes would be enough to take him. Those things were about as effective as a sharpened pencil, and yet the hunters never learned. It’s not like getting stabbed repeatedly was fun, though it was far easier to deal with than the other weapons the hunters liked to carry around.

As soon as Ruggie got his hands on whatever human thought it would be cute to try to sabotage their monthly exchange by ambushing the Savanaclaw coven with the hunters… well, he’s certain some of the more restless coven members would appreciate having a human to chase down and tear to pieces. Ever since they implemented the deal with the neighboring town, giving blood in exchange for residents no longer fearing leaving their houses after dark, some of the vampires had been complaining about how boring it was to no longer hunt–

Footsteps. Ruggie’s ears twitches as he sits up, wincing. He isn’t in any condition to deal with more threats, not with all his wounds. He hadn’t been able to kill all of the hunters, so have they come back to take him down for good…?

“Are you okay?”

A cold brush tickled your skin, and you could feel the glitter shards in it stick to the side of your face. Across from you was your partner in everything. He straddled your hips while you laid back against your bed so that he may paint your face at the best angle. You should’ve have been changing your new pillowcases and finishing the redecorating of your dorm, but it turned out that inviting Rook would be more of a distraction than you thought. It all started while you were organizing your makeup pencils into the new vanity you got when you suddenly wanted to swatch them on Rook’s skin. Now you were stuck, at his mercy, while he drew on you. You already drew an arrow on his forehead with purple eyeliner and pressed blue colored kisses on his left cheek. He was just adding the final touch to your face that would match the French words of love on your right cheek. “ What are you even drawing?” you asked, trying your best to keep from giggling at the ticklish sensation against your face.

Oh ace and deuce definitely have got to have some references to tweedle dee and dum ,as for sebek definitely tik tok croc (and the fact that hes just loud cause lightning is well loud)

OH ANON YOU'VE GOT A POINT, imagine Adeuce wearing their silly clothes and completing each other's phrases (they would end up throwing hands for sure)

I tried to think smth other than Tick Tock for Bebek but taking the lightning aspect I could only think of Lightning McQueen 💀 so... Tick Tock is more probable... I can't think of any character from Sleeping Beauty that would fit him

Ramble anon back here again after reading the Jade romcom fic im crying cause im very happy again im so glad my ideas inspired you and seeing them being just made me 🥹😭✨ TYSM and im really glad you had fun and indulged yourself with it 🥺!! thats always good to hear.

really the fic was amazing and even had me kicking mt legs during it 😂,jade being smitten was adorable and ofc azul and floyd made me laugh with how done they were and how much they were bothering jade—sorry you two its not over yet the honeymoon phase is nigh

HELLO AGAIN RAMBLE ANON !!!

I'm really happy you liked it!!! I took a lot of inspo from your asks after all! I'd say it was a colective effort lol. ALSO YEAH IT WAS SOOO MUCH FUN even with me having a billion other things to do I managed to find time to write because of how much I was loving it and honestly I haven't felt that motivated in some time. I guess being self indulgent truly is the best medicine

I'm glad it did <3 Jade might have been a biiit ooc but I like to think he looks very composed while internally he's just. screaming with all his bottled up emotions. especially if the emotion is, lord help us, affection. such a vulnerable thing...

Azul didn't appear that much but when he did he was suffering the whole time LMAO I lobe you my pathetic little businessman <3 meanwhile Floyd was half having the time of his life half wanting to smash his head against the wall to not have to take a second longer of the tension between them

oh they tought these two were insufferable while just flirting with each other? good news, they're gonna get 100x worse now 😁 they better be prepared to hear Yuu's name more than their own for the next weeks <3

cw: gn!reader, royal!au, angst, fluff, arranged marriage, unedited.

notes: this is just silly brainrot after rewatching barbie mvs. likes and reblogs are appreciated!!!

silver ⇾ the knight

“your highness, we must make haste!” silver bursts into your room at the edge of night, shaking you awake with concerning urgency as shouts and screams echo around the castle walls in a resounding cacophony. you’re barely rousing from your slumber as he ushers some sort of footwear on you in an arduous manner, grabbing your hand firmly. “i’ll escort you to safety--the castle has been invaded! come, quickly!”

when your homeland is overthrown by another kingdom and the the people of your country revolt against you, silver, your most valiant knight, is the only one who stands firmly by your side.

your footsteps are silent, running through the halls; his steps are clanky and armour-clad, leading the opposing-side straight to you. they have the advantage in numbers—you know that silver can’t combat them all.

blade drawn across his chest, silver demands for you to leave him behind. you know that is not a request, but an order—the first one he has ever made. even being the most esteemed chevalier in your ranks, he has never asked for anything of the royal family, content with silently fuffiling his role. there’s a sort of inconsolable pain that comes with knowing this was the only thing he’d ever ask of you, but the decision was final. you must go. his earnest expression tells you he won’t change his mind.

you could never doubt where silver’s faith lay. it was and always would be with you. that fact need not be uttered, for it was expressed with his actions. even now, he not once let any foe lay a hand on you; silver was the epitome of resolute and devoted, from the very beginning till the very end.

(when he battles to the brink of exhaustion and takes the final blows all in your stead, silver thinks back to the warmth you had given him. it’s only then that he realises the loyalty he pledged to you felt a lot more like love.)

“no matter who it is against you, or what it is you’re facing, i will forever stand by your side. that is my oath to you.”

malleus draconia ⇾ a loveless royal marriage

“happy anniversary, your excellency!” there’s cheers from all of those residing in the manor. malleus entwines his fingers with yours, squeezing it slightly, the affectionate gesture just enough to satisfy his grandmother and the other guests. once they are pleased with the act, he searches for some sort of joy in your eyes—but there is nothing. the people were congratulating a sham.

malleus doesn’t dare to look at you for too long, because it’s plain to see you’re devoid of life. you don’t love him. he knows you don’t love him. this arrangement killed the person he fell in love with years ago. he can’t recall the last time he’s heard you laugh genuinely, doubling over with endearing crinkles in the corners of of eyes and hands on your knees to steady yourself—you were so carefree. he wishes he had gotten a portrait done so he could remind himself of what you used to be, and not what you are now.

there are so many guests, people you recognise and people you do not, bounding up to the two of you to give you gifts and blessings. you’re giving non-convincing smiles as you chatter, shaking hands and receiving hugs. you don’t want this. you don’t want to be here.

maybe malleus notices your discomfort, as his hand hovers over the midsection of your back. it never touches.

he knows you are not happy. that’s why he pretends to not see the absence of a wedding band on your left-finger, the love letters addressed to another prince, and your hushed preparations at midnight to run away. (it’s ludicrous how the closer you get to leaving him, the more lively you become. you are coming back, you are blooming, but not under his touch—under somebody else’s.)

perhaps your new lover is louder, brighter and sunnier, all attributes he lacks. perhaps he should stop looking for excuses to help him loathe himself less. you and malleus were just not made for each other, and that was that.

“if i cannot make you happy, then i shan’t bind you to me any longer. go, and do not return.”

sebek zigvolt ⇾ a royal rivalry

“why aren’t you dancing? can’t you find a suitor? or did you fail your ballroom lessons? how pitiable. did you not pay attention? in my family--” sebek cocks a brow haughtily as though his mouth wasn’t half-stuffed with sweets. in spite of his discourtesy, he still carried an incorrigible regal air about himself. you grit your teeth. “do you ever shut up? nobody has asked me yet..”

sebek has been your rival since birth—the bane of your existence. both of your kingdoms are close allies, meaning you’re plagued by his endless chatter more than you’d like to be. everything is always has to be a competition between you both—he never misses a chance to remind you of his ‘fae descended’ bloodline that somehow makes him superior to you.

usually, you expect him to yell as soon as he sees you, but he’s oddly quiet. after your last exchange of words, green irises train on those participating in ongoing slow-dance, and then on you. he seems to be insinuating something, but you’re not sure what he wants out of you; you wonder if he’s sizing you up, or comparing heights.

when he instead leans forwards and extends his hand, your breath hitches. what in the world is he doing?! you feel eyes burn into your back—people were staring! you shoot him a quizzical look, but his expression is stiff, slightly rosy, focused on you only. his hand waits for you to take it. “well i-i suppose i can spare the likes of you a dance.”

you scowl—but even as you do, you put your hand in his. if you weren’t in such utter shock, you’d laugh at the audacity of him of all people being your partner for the night. you’re suddenly picking up on things you’ve never noticed about him before: the viridescent embellishments on his suit compliment his hair well… and oh, he does look better with his hair down, and…

he was your enemy, so why did he suddenly seem so… charming?

“are you leading or am i? …huh? you dare question my dancing ability? i’ll have you know, i had LESSONS!”

lilia vanrouge ⇾ forbidden love

you peer outside your bedroom window. he’s there again—the enigma of a bard who comes to play tunes for the royal family. as if he could feel your eyes on him, he looks right in your direction with a knowing smile—flustered, heart thrumming against your chest, you draw your curtains shut. your family think he’s here to play for everyone, but you know better. he’s here for you.

you’d spend every night before lilia arrived sleepless, waiting upon his arrival. his songs were ballads of worlds you never got to see, and never would be able to experience. you would hang onto his every word, head rested on his laps as he sung away. you’d be scolded for getting too close by others, but he didn’t seem to mind… so again, you’re quick to rush to his side today, keeping an amiable distance in front of your guards.

his voice is spirituous and unlike anything you’d ever heard before, laced with a certain edge you couldn’t get enough of; you’re certain he must be a wizard enchanting you. how else could you have fallen so fast? was it his eloquence, or his youthfulness that contrasts his extensive historical knowledge, or his archaic way of attempting to court you? you supposed it didn’t matter. all you knew was that your entire being was entranced by this strange fleeting sensation.

you sneak him away from prying eyes as soon as you can, and he teases you: “aren’t you greedy, wanting me all to yourself?” taking your hand and pressing chaste kisses to the back of it. the thrill of trying to not get caught spurs him on, and the sheepish look on your face and tremor of your stuttering as he renders you speechless is a plus.

you have been unsure of yourself your whole life, not knowing if the roadmap you had laid out for you was the one you truly desired—but this was the one thing you’re certain about. you must see this man again. (even if it means going against orders and sneaking out, even if it brings your family shame, even if you find out you’re not special to him in the end.)

when you tell him such, he throws his head back in a fit of giggles. you truly believe he embodies temptation, drawing you inwards—you can’t resist it!! he thinks you’re so cute, with your bashful expression and all, as he taps your nose thrice and pinches your cheek with gleeful adoration.

“you would really risk it all just to see me? i might serenade you on the spot.”

This was super fun I’m probably going to write atleast one of the other prompts thank you for the ideas!!! I initially used a randomized picker but I didn’t like the matchups so I kept the ones I liked then edited a few of the others. This took a little longer than expected but I hope you enjoy it!

Riddle, Floyd •Floyd tries to scare Riddle by simply jumping out and saying “Boo” •It worked a little too well and Floyd ended up being thrown 5 feet into the air with magic •Floyd refuses to ever let Riddle live that down and is determined to bring it up every time he sees him doing something important •Overall it was a 10/10 scare and was super successful ,Someone please give Riddle a break /j

Deuce, Ace •Ace tried to scare Deuce by using wind magic to act like their was a ghost there, you know like how people say if there’s a sudden wind gust and chill then there’s a ghost present •Deuce 100% believed it and absolutely freaked out •It wouldve been a great scare if Ace hadn’t given it away by laughing so hard •He ended up with a cauldron on top of him and got punished by Riddle for “being so childish” but it was totally worth it to see how scared Deuce got •Will bring it up anytime he thinks Deuce is getting too cocky •Definitely a 10/10 scare, very successful and Ace has a recording of it

Malleus, Leona •Malleus tried to scare Leona by doing a classic jumpscare since Lilia had attempted the same thing on him and it fascinated him !! •It worked slightly •Definitely gave Leona a slight scare but he didn’t show it at all •Malleus got disappointed at his reaction and Leona got ticked off at himself that something so simple was able to startle him •Overall a solid 5/10 was definitely more entertaining to watch as an outsider than it was to either of the ones involved

Vil, Rook •Surprisingly enough it was Vil who tried to scare Rook by just standing still as a statue when he thought Rook didn’t notice him enter the room, he was determined to get Rook back for all the scares he’s done to him over the years •Absolutely failed Rook noticed him immediately •Started saying how beautiful he looked •When Vil didn’t reply or show any shift in expression Rook picked him and started carrying him around like a bag •Vil started freaking out and after like 5 minutes of struggling he was finally let go •Will never attempt this again •Overall a -100/10 it was enjoyed by Rook but gave Vil a heart attack

Silver, Jade •Quite the odd choice but this time I feel Jade is the one scaring Silver •Silver is one of the few people to not be actively scared of the tweels so, of course, Jade wants to change this by just generally discussing disturbing topics and showing his teeth more than usual during a conversation with Silver •Doesn’t work •Silver grew up around Malleus he’s seen scarier things than some pointy teeth •Lilia has told much scarier stories than Jade could ever dream of •While this doesnt work as intended, Jade has found a new appreciation towards Silver and thinks of him more highly •3/10 didn’t work but might’ve started a slight friendship between the 2

Kalim, Jamil •Kalim tries to scare Jamil by prank calling him with the rest of the light music club gang •Didn’t work •Jamil recognized his voice immediately •Starts scolding him and saying how dangerous it was •Honestly pretty boring to say the least •Overall a 2/10 fun idea maybe next time let one of there other light music members do the talking

Cater, Trey •Cater tried to prank Trey by puttin Kool-aid in his shower spigot so the water comes out red •DEFINITELY WORKS •Trey screamed and started freaking out •Cater wouldve filmed it if Trey wasn’t literally in the shower •Most likely won’t do this again just because it wouldn’t be surprising but was definitely worth it •Was a once in a lifetime experience Cater won’t ever forget •Trey was not pleased but got less tense when realizing it was, in fact, not blood •Overall a 10/10 was worth the week of extra chores he got for doing it

Azul, Idia •Wow Idia outside?! •I mean he loves Halloween so obviously he has to pull a few scare pranks on his buddies for the season !! •He decides the best way to scare Azul is by putting ominous writing, you’re next, on his bathroom mirror and creeping behind him to tap his shoulders when he sees the message •Who let him into the dorm? Why the lovely tweels of course !!! •Works super well •Azul screams when he feels the hands placed on his shoulders •He turned around to see Idia and the tweels holding back laughter •Refuses to acknowledge how scared that made him and avoids Idia for a few days afterwards •The only reason he stopped avoiding Idia was when he found out he had a video of the encounter so he had to go negotiate for him to delete it •Idia refused to delete it and since the tweels found it funny they don’t do anything either so he still has it along with multiple backups of it •10/10 scare prank, it worked better than Azul would ever admit

Jack, Epel •Epel tried to scare Jack by putting a plastic severed hand on his bed •Only half worked •Scared him for a split second then he immediately noticed it was plastic and threw it away without saying anything •Somehow Vil got wind of this and Epel got heavily scolded for “trying something so immature” •Overall a 2/10 he would not do it again and there was no real reaction

Lilia, Ruggie •Lilia tried to scare Ruggie by appearing in front of him randomly •Totally worked •Ruggie went flying so high Lilia swore he had wings •Lilia had Cater record the whole thing and send it to him •Ruggie tried his best to compose himself afterwards but felt his heart racing for atleast 3 minutes afterwards •Overall a solid 7/10 his reaction was hilarious but he also felt like he was gonna die from how fast his heart was beating

Sebek, Ortho •Ortho tried to scare Sebek by playing creepy ambient noises then projecting ghosts onto the walls •It works though you wouldn’t be able to notice by his body language •He just stood stiff as a board until the projection of the ghosts and he started yelling for them to leave •His yelling was filled with audible worry but it seemed Ortho didn’t notice •It was fine though because Ortho could tell he got him just from the vitals •Overall a 5/10 it was entertaining but other than that it wasn’t anything special

Again, thank you so much for the prompt I absolutely loved writing this!!

-🦭

HIII 🦭 ANON. OMG THESE ARE DELIGHTFUL THANK YOU SOOO MUCH <3

I'm happy you liked the prompts! it does looks like you had a lot of fun, which I'm very glad for! OF COURSE I ENJOYED THESE, YOUR WRITING IS WONDERFUL!!! I love when you share it with us!!

• Riddle and Floyd

HELP THIS COMBINATION IS SO CANON LMAOO I know for a fact Floyd tried to scare Riddle at least once during the event.

ALSO FLOYD DOING THE SIMPLEST THING AND MANAGING TO SCARE RIDDLE IS SO FUNNY 😭 his appearence alone is scary enough 😭 rip Floyd for being thrown 5 feet away, I'm sure it was worth it

Riddle can't see him without thinking about this situation. his pressure levels are rising as we speak

• Deuce and Ace

ALSO SUPER CANON!!! for sureee Ace tried to scare Deuce, there's not a doubt in my mind that this has happened.

props to Ace for using his magic in a creative way! instead of focusing in class he uses his brain to come up with stuff like this... he's got his priorities straight ig

Deuce would pretend he isn't scared but his eyes are wide and looking around, his hands are sweaty and shaking, he's slowly backing away. he's going to be real embarrassed about falling for it, will curse Ace out

NOT ACE RECORDING IT 😭 he sent it to the first years groupchat for SURE

• Malleus and Leona

🦭 anon you've got the most canon combinations ever I'm laughing so hard imagining these happening

Malleus liking simple halloween scares is so cute omg... and then he is a little shit and tries to scare Leona HELP

Leona definetely will try to get him back for that. how DARE he try to scare him. this is a war now. (neither are very successful in their atempts. Ruggie and Lilia are laughing so hard at it)

• Vil and Rook

THIS IS SUCH AN INTERESTING COMBINATION, I didn't think about this possibility before and it's sooo entertaining

Rook would like a statue of Vil anyways 😭😭😭 nothing phases him. ALSO HIM JUST. CARRYING VIL AROUND??? THAT'S SO FUNNY HE'S SO OUT OF POCKET

Vil is traumatized, on top of the whole magicam monsters thing he has to endure this too, someone give him a break 🙏

• Silver and Jade

MY BELOVEDS <333 I. absolutely love the way you think anon. you're so right, Jade would like to try to disturb Silver a little since he isn't scared of him normally !!!

I love how unfazed Silver is lmaooo Jade would be telling the most disturbing Coral Sea tale he's got and Silver would be like "wow that's very interesting thanks for sharing 👍" respect adquired.

I belive in Jade and Silver friendship!!!!!!!!

• Kalim and Jamil

I'm so sorry Kalim but there's no way Jamil will fall for anything you try to pull off 😭

imagining the pop music club giggling around him as he tries to prank Jamil and then all of them ignoring the following lecture to think on who to call next (maybe it was Sebek lmao)

• Cater and Trey

CATER IS SO EVIL FOR THAT I'M LAUGHING SO HARD OMG

imagining Trey with a high pitched scream as soon as he opens the shower head and Cater rolling on the floor holding his stomach laughing

DEFINETELY WORTH THE EXTRA CHORES

• Azul and Idia

the board games club besties !!! Idia counting the number of his friends on his fingers and deciding one between his like 3 friends to prank 😭 of course it'd be Azul, his reaction would be priceless

Idia has been watching a few too many horror movies and I love it. THE TWEELS BEING MENACES HELPPP THEY'D PROBABLY RECORD THE WHOLE THING AND USE AS BLACKMAIL ON AZUL

AZUL BEING SALTY AND AVOIDING HIM AFTERWARDS 😭😭😭 CRYING IMAGINING THE WHOLE THING, Idia please send the video to me I wanna see it too

• Jack and Epel

Epel is so bold for this... Jack would immediately feel the smell of plastic and notice it was just a prop, throw it away and go back to sleep

he probably commented it with Vil later on (he wasn't trying to get Epel in trouble, he just wanted to comment about it with someone) and thus that's how Epel got his scolding

• Lilia and Ruggie

after laughing at Malleus and Leona, it's their turn!

Lilia just doing his everyday thing and it still working 😭 RUGGIE ALMOST HAD A HEART ATTACK. NOT CATER RECORDING IT TOO THEY'RE MENACES 😭

Ruggie is going to prank him back for it!! (in a light hearted and funny way!!)

• Sebek and Ortho

I believe Sebek secretely gets scared by this spooky supernatural things but does his best to pretend he doesn't because if he can't protect himself against this how could he ever call himself a brave knight of Malleus???

Ortho feeling a bit mischievous and wanting to get in the fun of halloween scares!! SEBEK YELLING AT THE GHOSTS 😭😭😭 HE WOULD

Ortho comments about it to the other first years. no one lets Sebek live it down.

🦭 ANON THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING THIS I HAD SO MUCH FUN READING!!! I was feeling down but this lifted my spirits, I'm very grateful!! honestly anon, if you ever decide to create a writing blog I'll be your number one fan and supporter, your writing is very good!!!

| Notes: Hi, anon!

Sorry but I didn’t get to write for Vil. I just never feel confident enough to write him in a more serious and complete request… but I hope the other six are enough! I had fun writing for each one of them, I think my favorites are Kalim and Idia for this request~ Hope you like it!

Thanks for the request <3 |

Cherry’s Harvesting 🍒 Masterlist

Dear Shoulder Pillow

Riddle had invited you to have a study meeting at the school library. It was no big deal. Just a moment for you to spend together and study at the same time. People say dating can get in the way of studies but Riddle wasn't the type of boyfriend who would let that happen. It was nothing more and nothing less than to unite something useful with the pleasant;

Although reading about the history of teas during the reign of the Queen of Hearts was neither of them, or helpful nor enjoyable. Because you two were from different grades, the content Riddle read was different from yours and although he insisted on helping you if you had any questions, you didn't want to bother him with something as banal as that;

A long time later, Riddle was already moving on to the next chapter of arithmetic when he felt a weight on his right shoulder. As he turned around, Riddle could only see your head tilted at him, your eyes closed and your concentration completely lost. You were asleep! When he was going to say something, you moved a little more, settling on his shoulder;

That was a good card for you to play but Riddle was still determined to wake you up so you could pay more attention to your studies. He nudged you lightly, calling your name and for a brief moment, you awoke again. You swore that you wouldn’t sleep again and that at least the next lines were about a Knave that tried to poison the Queen — which made Riddle twist his nose a little;

Well, obviously the Knave of Hearts failed at his mission because five minutes later you got back again onto Riddle's comfortable shoulder. You have to wonder how such a thin, lean shoulder could have handled your head satisfactorily, but you managed to get a perfect position. So much so that you barely moved from there;

Riddle had to take a deep breath before he looked at you again. While sleeping, you had this cute little pout that he took a long time to deviate from. The icing on the cake was that you pulled his right arm like a second pillow, squeezing it tight enough to have it at your pleasure and as much as the already small distance between the two chairs allowed;

The two of you were in a more distant and private area of the library, where the huge bookshelves blocked you from other people’s view. But at a certain point, Trey showed up over there to communicate something to Riddle and ended up finding you and the dorm leader in that position. Riddle had been content to continue reading a book but his friend’s arrival scared him;

“One word and it will be off with your head...!,” Riddle whispered loudly, his face colored by a vibrant red. “It better be important like Ace blowing up the dorm or Deuce getting lost in the maze again...!” Trey was silent for a moment, trying to hold back his laughter and undecided if he should say something or not;

At almost the same moment, you yawned as you stretched out and held Riddle's entire body to be your dear pillow. He couldn't say anything because the top of your head was too close to his mouth. The best Riddle could do was to adjust you back to your old position on his shoulder, although trying to undo your arm around him was in vain;

“You know, I think we can hold Cater doing a flash-mob of himself for another hour. See you later, Riddle,” Trey pulled his glasses back and waved goodbye to his friend, disappearing back among the bookshelves. Riddle sighed. To choose the safety of Heartslabyul or continue your afternoon nap? Unfortunately or not, he had enough heart to not wake you up;

Eventually you woke up, of course. But Riddle had fallen asleep too, leaning on your head and his book open on the table. You got away from him very carefully for a minute, left a highlighter on the page and gently woke him up. Riddle opened his gray eyes, his black eyelashes with slight red reflections blinking softly. A wonderful sight, for sure.

It was another ordinary afternoon in Savanaclaw. The sun was shining brightly and Leona was sitting next to you on the balcony of his room, enjoying the view. Although you were at a high point overlooking a landscape of big dusty rocks, further on the horizon there was a river curving in the Savannah and some humble small vegetation;

You had tried calling Leona to play chess but he was a little more sleepy and lazy than usual. And was winning all times even like that — the audacity! Eventually, you put the board and pieces aside and you two turned to admire the simple, natural wonders of the dorm;

Leona had fallen asleep in no time, not that you were too surprised about it. In fact, Leona had earlier brought a large cushion from his room — large and soft, made of the most expensive fabric you could imagine — and was probably planning to sleep there the entire time. You sighed but smiled at the same time, sharing the pillow with him;

What you didn't expect was to end up taking a nap too and using Leona’s shoulder as your support. He woke up for a brief minute only to find out what that strange weight next to him was, confirming it was you. Leona has never seen you so relaxed before, vulnerable and comfortable. Being at the mercy of a carnivore like him;

Leona laid your head better on his shoulder so that you could stay in a position that wouldn't give you a tremendous sprain afterwards. Trust him, he has mastered the art of sleeping in the strangest ways and in the most unusual places;

But to Leona’s surprise, you suddenly wrapped your arms around his torso and squeezed him as if nothing in the world was going to get you out of there. Leaning on his shoulder, you had the serenity of a little lion using the support of a rock to be worshiped by the kingdom without actually realizing it. Leona had to fight a smile that escaped the corner of his lips;

You're really more than a mere herbivore, huh? While Leona was thinking about it, he heard the sound of his bedroom door opening and he recognized Ruggie approaching the balcony. Through the half-open door, Leona could hear the other students in the dorm arguing about something in the hallway;

“Whatever these animals are doing, it's not my problem, Ruggie,” Leona replied before the hyena boy could tell what was going on. He said this without having to raise his voice or get out of position, keeping you quiet and safe around him. If there was one thing Leona hated, it was when people tried to disrupt his nap for silly reasons — and knowing his pack, they sure were idiots;

Ruggie just leaned against the balcony column where the two of you were leaning and took a look at the scene. He knew that intruding on your date would come at a high cost but it was either that or just letting the guys kill each other to see who would clean up the dorm’s magift court. But it turned out his leader was dealing with a much bigger issue;

“Alright, alright. But Leona... look at that wandering hand there, huh,” Ruggie couldn't hold back a low laugh and it got worse when Leona growled at him. The noise of Ruggie's laughter, growling, and someone running out of the room eventually woke you up and you stretched out your arms like cats do. Maybe Leona passed this habit on to you unintentionally;

But Leona led you back to a new nap, where you could relax again just the two of you. You could perfectly feel Leona’s breath rising and falling, like a natural and soft orchestra. He stroked your head, giving you a sense of security that you appreciated. Leona rested his chin on the top of your head and smiled. That’s the good life.

Every time Azul invited you to study in Octavinelle’s lounge room, you felt even more the feeling that you were in the middle of the ocean. Everything was so serene, the fishes moved quietly inside the aquariums and the students were reasonably quiet, even with the common noise of books being opened and notes being written;

Azul had chosen for you a more private area, where you could study without anyone bothering you. And it stood next to an aquarium with the fish type you liked to look at the most. The environment was so calm and relaxing that you were fighting sleep, almost like a brave prince saving your own life from a giant sea monster;

As if it couldn't get any worse, Azul was explaining the subject to you. His voice was like the waves of the sea on a beach in the early morning, softly as the singing of a mermaid. If you didn't know about Azul’s commitment to his studies, you'd think he was making you drowsy on purpose. No one had the right to have a naturally melodious voice! — and, good Triton, he had;

Before Azul could realize it in time, you fell asleep on his shoulder and interrupted him reading about the maritime discovery of the true functions of a pipe. That scared Azul for a solid minute. Even though you were in a relationship, he sometimes forgot that things like that could happen;

Not knowing what to do, Azul watched you snuggle better on his shoulder, your newest soft and fragrant pillow. He wondered if the cologne he was using wouldn't bother you sooner or later, yet you drew closer to him than ever — as if to contradict him. Azul closed his history book, lost to say the least;

Azul adjusted his glasses to make sure no one was paying attention to you. The Mostro Lounge’s opening hours were over and Octavinelle’s students were behaved enough that no one would go after him because of any trouble. But to distract himself from the feeling of you being so comfortable and relaxed around him, Azul kept thinking about all the possibilities that would come from this scenario;

Every once in a while, he would make the mistake of looking back at you and staring at your half-open mouth. Azul closed it as gently as he could, but he felt guilty for never stopping watching you. Azul had already read several mermaid tales as a child about how one kiss of true love could solve everything. He wishes he could kiss you to make you focus on your studies again!;

Azul was so distracted that he didn't notice when Jade stood in front of him, with some papers in his arms and silently observing the situation. Eventually he looked away from you and found the vice. “J-jade...!,” Blue exclaimed in the lowest, most restrained manner he could muster. “What is it? You don't see I'm busy...?!”;

Jade smiled, almost saying without words that, yes, he knew. And how busy. But those papers were the receipts for the month’s Lounge and dorm expenses, which Azul always requested to do the accountability. He left the papers on the table and had the audacity to stack the books you were reading in front of a very embarrassed Azul;

“I don't think you'll need them anymore at the moment,” Jade said, closing his eyes and waving a farewell to the leader. Azul cursed him quietly with all the curses and threats that a good Ashengrotto knew. He couldn’t tolerate such insubordination;

A little more used to the situation and getting tired, Azul ended up leaning against you too and fell asleep next to you. In the brief moment you woke up and realized that Azul was holding your hand, you took off his glasses and carefully left them on the table. All this without waking him up. You didn't know that Azul could have such a heavy sleep — and that he smiles while doing so.

When Kalim invited you to Scarabia that afternoon, you couldn't deny it. It was a heated day and as much as the dorm’s Sun shone as bright as gold being forged, the two of you were sitting near the fountain in the center of that huge and sumptuous palace. You could hear the noise of water falling incessantly, forming small drops on the edges of the fountain;

Kalim was cheerful as always, his mood was steady whether it was raining or sunny. It was one of the things you liked about him. Kalim seemed an inexhaustible source of energy, cheering you up at all times in the small and big things. He was telling you various stories about his younger siblings and his own childhood memories;

The mood was so pleasant, the fountain tumbling to a serene beat and the ornaments on Kalim's outfit tinkling to a soft, fun background music that you couldn't help but yawn. First you came closer to Kalim, without interrupting his words, and then you felt as if you were melting;

Kalim only saw your eyes close, your lashes lowered like a peacock’s tail. You leaned on his shoulder and got lost in a desert of dreams. Kalim got closer to the edge of the fountain and watched you sleep, a smile growing on his face. When he met you earlier, you looked tired and he wanted to cheer you up a little;

But if you wanted to enjoy that free time by napping, Kalim saw no problem with that. After all, a nap is fun too! Kalim wished he could have laughed more but the slight movement of his shoulders seemed to bother you and he went back on being quiet. As complicated as it was, he did his best not to interrupt your sleep;

To pass the time, Kalim sang you a famous lullaby from the Land of Hot Sands. It was a beautiful and soft melody, words that you might not understand very well but full of meaning. In this came some birds who wanted to take advantage of the water of the fountain to bathe and accompany their friend’s song;

All this unusual peace in the dorm was the reason that Jamil approached the fountain after a few hours. To his relief, Kalim was safe and quiet, nuzzling you on his shoulder while a dove also rested on his dorm bandana. Jamil was speechless;

“Jamil!! O-h... Ja… Jamil...!,” Kalim exclaimed but then tried to speak softly. “Shhh! We can't make noises now…!” Jamil saw more birds gather near the boy to rest and felt that he was not paid and accommodated enough to put up with such visions on a simple Tuesday afternoon. At least, you two weren’t causing any trouble;

Kalim didn't expect to meet Jamil at that moment, but it reminded him of all the times the vice had to take care of him when he fell asleep unintentionally. It was a very difficult task and one that really required care! But he was happy that he was handling the situation well, in the careful and effective way that he knew Jamil did;

“Make yourself comfortable then, Kalim. I'll leave some hot tea ready just in case you two want it later,” Jamil had already turned to leave the courtyard but he still heard Kalim whisper-loudly that if possible he wanted some crackers to go with it — Jamil sighed, as usual;

A few minutes later you stirred on awakening and this sudden movement startled the little birds near you. Kalim waved to them all and asked if you were feeling better. You stretched out, still a little drowsy, but feeling sore from sleeping sitting on the floor for so much time. In this, Kalim had an idea: you would have some tea with crackers and you could nap together again, only in the room with all those pillows and tapestries!

In other times, it would be impossible for you to enter Idia’s room. If Ignihyde was the underworld where he reigned, his room was like his own temple. Only Ortho could get in there — and now, so could you. As you got closer and started dating, Idia was becoming more inclined to spend time with someone else and share more about his hobbies;

Even if you aren’t very good with games, Idia always seemed to have something up his sleeve to show you. Whatever you wanted, in the theme of your choice, it didn’t matter. He could do it. The same thing went for manga, anime, movies — Idia would go digital distances to make your time alongside him worth. Even though you assured him many times that his company alone was good enough;

That night, you ended up meeting after dinner to spend time together in Idia’s room, as usually happened on your dates. Idia was particularly anxious because he found a manga with a very interesting story and it was just the kind of story he knew you liked too;

Idia made that discovery for a while but he had so caught up with the story and was eagerly awaiting the release of the new chapters. In the meantime, he tried to explain the plot in general, the characters he liked, the characters he hated and his favorite chapters — all without spoiling anything beyond necessary;

You were side by side in bed and it was one of the few occasions when you could hear Idia’s voice so lively and louder than usual, without losing the relaxing tone his voice had. It was getting a little late but you didn't want to interrupt Idia and end the night there. You were focused on Idia but your mind turned into Charon and led you to another direction in the river: slumber;

Idia stopped talking when he felt you leaning on his shoulder, sleeping peacefully — just like those scenes in shoujo manga! His heart stopped, came back again, took a break and continued. Idia panicked but when he moved to try to get away from you, you followed him and on top of that, snuggled even more into him. Counterattack!;

Quiet, lost and confused — and restricted — Idia wondered what had put you to sleep after all. Was it him? Listening to him talk for hours about manga was too boring? He went on a tangent of worried and anxious thoughts until the digital clock beeped eleven o’clock in the evening. This woke up Idia a bit and made him wonder if maybe there was an option that you had fallen asleep because it was too late;

Eleven O'clock was still peak time for Idia so he sometimes forgot that “normal people” didn't spend more than that. Well, to complete the shoujo cliché bingo, Ortho walked into the room and witnessed you two in this unusual position. Idia stared into his little brother’s eyes with intensity. “P-p-please, Ortho... help me!,” he asked softly, the ends of his fiery hair turning hot pink;

Ortho held his chin, taking a closer look at you hugging Idia’s figure. Your heartbeat was normal — compared to his brother’s chariot racing heart — and your serotonin levels seemed good. You were having a good dream and even though his technology couldn't prove it, Ortho hoped it was dreams with Idia;

“Sorry to bother you, Nii-san. I’ll get my charger and leave you two alone,” Ortho said at a low volume that wouldn't make you wake up. Idia trembled and stuttered meaningless words to his brother, feeling somehow betrayed. Ortho closed the door and Idia felt that now he was lost. He wasn’t at all prepared for this rapprochement between you, not even in the craziest scenarios that he sometimes imagined;

Swallowing hard and looking at you carefully again, Idia noticed how soundly you were sleeping. He's never seen you like this. It was unexpected, even a little weird, but he couldn't take his eyes off you. Idia dared to lean against you a little more and feel your warmth, a once in a lifetime opportunity. Maybe it was a good thing you were asleep. Idia didn't want you to see how much he was smiling like a fool — that was what people called the “protagonist moment”, right?

It was a magnificent night full of stars. Malleus had shown up for another late-night visit to his favorite ramshackled dorm, graced all the more by the fact that the human he loved so much had called him to see the sky on that humble roof. Grim didn't want to go with you because stargazing seemed pretty boring and Ace always told him to stop playing your “personal third wheel” — whatever that means;

You were side by side on the roof. As Malleus was an expert in astronomy, he pointed out the stars and said their names as if they were old friends. You had no doubt that this was a sad truth given his restricted life in his castle. Malleus knew the name of each star in the constellations, some quite different figures from what was in your world;

You even briefly explained the concept of zodiac signs to Malleus and he was as confused as he was fascinated by the way humans tried to use the stars for fortune telling. He had heard of one using the constellations to guide themselves along the way but not much about predicting someone’s day;

You two continued to talk for a while, sharing these different experiences as you felt the coolness of the serene summer. It was Malleus who was telling you a story about stars from his homeland when you started to feel a little somnolent. You didn't know what time it was and the whole environment around you was too relaxing;

Malleus’s voice was soft and affectionate, enchanting as a sleeping spell. He could be talking about the most absurd thing and you would listen as if it were a bedtime story. You started by resting your head on Malleus’ shoulder and in what you told yourself would be resting your eyes for one minute to enjoy his voice, you ended up actually falling asleep;

Malleus realized this when he asked you something and you answered nothing. He stared at your sleepy figure, surprised for a moment but then giving a small smile. So you were playing Silver on him, weren’t you? — Malleus hoped this was the proper way to say the “human younglings expression”. He held your hand and continued to wander in a monologue about the stars;

Lilia showed up there unexpectedly because he was looking for Silver who hadn't returned to the dorm yet, probably from falling asleep somewhere. But he came across this scene and when he noticed that you were sleeping, he decided to approach to try to at least tease Malleus for a brief moment;

“Child of Man eventually fell asleep. It must be so hard to live with a need for rest and succumb so easily to the dream world,” Malleus commented, looking gently at you. “But it feels so peaceful at the same time.” Lilia held back his laughter as he saw the way Malleus smiled;

It wasn't as if the fairies didn't know what sleep was, but staying awake for quite some time wasn't difficult or problematic. Malleus usually spent hours wandering through the night before actually sleeping. When he was younger, he joked about keeping the Moon company and telling the grandiose, lonely satellite how his day went;

“Don't forget to put your sleeping beauty to sleep in bed afterwards. Enjoy the night, my little bats,” Lilia said goodbye, going after his own sleeping beauty son. Malleus waved back at him and as he turned around, he took you in his arms gently. You hardly even felt yourself being lifted from your position to a different environment;

When you opened your eyes, Malleus had kissed you goodnight. Before he went, you pulled his sleeve lightly and in a low mutter asked him to stay. It was such a simple and lovely gesture that Malleus couldn't deny your request. He arranged a piece of the bed to lie on and you leaned on his shoulder again, falling back to sleep with the help of a sweet little lullaby that Malleus made especially for you.
