He saw you, and he couldn’t stand you. If there was one thing he liked about you from the start, it was the fact you never talked to him. It was clear that he didn’t think that the Ultimate Music Enthusiast was a true talent.

But something about the way you talked so little with some people, yet were so outspoken with your friends drew him in. He saw how you always had something snarky to say to anyone who didn’t like you.

Eventually, he noticed the little things, how he noticed your eye bags, and how they hung no matter how noticeable or unnoticeable they were. When you waved to people by only using one finger, or the top half of your hand down to your friends.

Yet, when he actually wanted to get to know you, he found his efforts were in vain. Whenever he walked up to you, you’d always give him a specific look, one he didn’t see you give to anyone else. It wasn’t the warm, tired one you gave to your friends, or the disgusted, avoidant ones you gave to people you didn’t like.

This look, it was mixed with nervousness and something else, something he couldn’t place. Was it happiness? Terror? Disgust? He didn’t know and it killed him inside. He has observed you for so long yet can’t recognize a simple look on your face? He felt so stupid.

This cycle repeated for a few days. He would seek, you two would meet, then, you would fleet, and it would all repeat. It wasn’t until Whit told him the words he’d been waiting to hear for so long as you scurried away.

“They really like you y’know?” Whit told him. His heart stopping as he said that. But, he wanted to hear it from you, that was all he wanted. So, he stood up, and he walked to your room, his shoes clicking against the flooring. He knocked and you answered, he finally had the chance, and he wasn’t gonna miss it.

“..I really like you, do you like me back?” His confession was a lot like him, straight to the point, no shortcuts, just the truth. And by the way you looked, he knew that you liked him back. But when you nodded, it was like he just ascended into heaven. No, it was exactly like heaven.

Whit Young!

He always knew about your crush on him, how could he not? The way you immediately took your eyes away when he looked at you, or how your lips curved upwards if you ever heard his voice. He noticed those things, somehow. But he noticed them.

It was quite endearing, really. He’s had people crushing on him before, but, this was different. This time, he actually reciprocated the feeling. But, for some reason, he didn’t know what to do.

He’s technically never had a crush on someone before. He was always the one making sure couples were formed. He never wanted to be in a relationship, or rather, he never thought about being in one until now.

Whenever he looked at you, he saw someone who was the perfect blend of chaos and empathy. Someone he could admire from afar and up-close at the same time.

He thought he could just chatterbox his way up into your heart, but when you were nowhere to be found, he was heartbroken!

He didn’t want to just jump in on the conversation, he wanted to actually get to know you. To spend time with you, and only you. Something he wasn’t used to doing, he usually just talked and talked and he would become close with people at the drop of a hat!

He’d walk, and walk, and walk, but there was never a moment where you’d be alone. You always had someone tagging along with you. Not to mention, you had your room always locked, and were always “too busy” to open it up and let him in! Yet whenever one of your friends asked, they were let in right away!

He was so hurt! He just wanted to confess his undying love to you! He constantly ended up venting about this to Charles, much to his annoyance. (wow im sooo creative, using whit and charles in each others headcanons..)

“I just want to tell them that my love for them is larger than life! Is that really so wrong!” “Yes, absolutely.” “You’re not helping!” Was practically becoming a classic conversation between them.

After what felt like years, (it was only a few days), he finally got the chance to speak with you! With no one else around, he vent his heart out, laying everything on the floor.

“I love you! I-I don’t know how else to put it. But, I really want to be with you!” He did it..he finally did it. He confessed to you! When you accepted his confession, he hugged you with all his might, placing his lips on yours!

Xander Matthews!

As soon as Xander laid eyes on you, he felt a spark buzz around in his chest, he had to go talk to you!

At your first interaction, you were so jittery, and the conversation ended after only exchanging names and ultimates before you ran off somewhere else!

Xander was…disappointed to say the least. You seemed like such a sweet person! Especially in the following weeks when he saw you laughing like a maniac with your friends! If you were able to laugh with them so easily, why were you so nervous around him?

Then, it hit him…he was probably just startling you, right? Maybe if he just took off his brown coat, and spoke in a less energetic tone, you’d talk to him, right?

…No. It didn’t work, of course it didn’t! Because that wasn’t the reason you didn’t talk to him, but he didn’t know that, of course. He just thought he had to take a different approach.

After a few days of unsuccessfully trying to talk to you, he eventually took a moment to lie down on his bed, Teruko beside him. The brunette’s face was clearly annoyed at Xander’s efforts. “You’re acting like they’re the love of your life, y’know?” Teruko said.

Xander took a moment to think about her words. Then, he realized, she was right. He was acting like he was in love with you. “That’s because I am!” He said, his words flowing like water. “Why do you think I’m trying so hard to talk to them? There’s something so…beautiful about them.” He told Teruko, his words were completely serious. Something about you made his heart flutter.

Yet, he knew so little about you. He only knew your name, and your ultimate. Yet, if that was all he figured out about you for the rest of his life, he’d be at peace with that.

But that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to try. Xander stood up, and walked to your dorm. Taking a deep breath, he knocked on your door. When you opened it, his heart gave a flutter, but he didn’t dare utter a word (CAUSE THAT WOULD BE ABSUUURD BEHAVIOR). He immediately grabbed the door in order to keep it open. Especially since at one point, you slammed the door on him when he tried to talk to you.

“Y-Y/n! I want to talk to you!” He said, taking another deep breath as you stood there, hands behind your back due to nervousness. “I really, really like you. Like, more than I thought I would. And, I was hoping you’d allow me to be your..boyfriend?”

David Chiem

Oh, David…what a polarizing figure he was to you.. You could immediately tell something was slightly off with him. How could someone be so positive and uplifting their whole life?

As a result of this, you tended to avoid him, most of it was unintentional, but there were times when you’d purposefully avoid him. Something about his vibe was both…alluring yet also…unsettling? You just couldn’t explain it.

For David, meeting you was like a meeting your new pet rock. Something that was weirdly sentimental for no real reason. He just couldn’t stop staring at you, his eyes always glazing over your figure.

In his eyes, however, he saw something more…he saw a light. He saw someone he could trust, someone he could hold and cherish in his arms for all of eternity.

But, he couldn’t, the most he was spared was a glance across the hallway before you went on your day. It was insufferable, honestly. To watch your pretty face walk around for a few fleeting moments before you crawled up into your room for what felt like hours. He just could never confront you about this new sensation.

So, he waits, and waits, and waits for hours sitting at the dining table until you come out for your 3am snack. As soon as you do, his eyes widen and he jumps up. He immediately walks over to you, his eyes widening as he takes you in. You looked so beautiful, even if you were drowned in eye bags and groans, you still looked like heaven.

He finally spoke up. Although you made him question many things, he knew one thing for sure. He wanted to take this slow… “..Do you mind if I accompany you to the kitchen? I’m sure you’d like some company!” He said, the smile on his face clear despite the room’s dark setting.

He'd be disgusted. He'd tell you to get out of his sight and really just dig into your skin how unworthy you are. Afterwards though, he wouldn't be able to stop thinking about the encounter. Without him realizing, you'd really start growing on him. He'd just start appreciating little things about you. Until eventually (as in, weeks or even months after your confession) he'd realize he *would* actually like to be with you. But of course, he can't just go up directly to you and say all of this. He just starts acting *nicer* around you. This starts before he's consciously realised his attraction to you, in fact. Gradually this becomes more and more... weird and boundary-breaking. But he also won't admit anything? He's still very conflicted :')

If you've moved on by this point, well, it's just awkward and uncomfortable... It's not as insane as it is with J in canon, because he would not be as open with how he feels here, but still, it's quite a mess altogether.

If you haven't moved on and still like him, the fact that he's warming up to you is nothing but overwhelmingly joyous. You end up eventually telling him that that old offer of yours still stands. He may seem reluctant still, but this time he accepts your confession. You cautiously hug him and notice the slightest hint of blush on his face as he hugs back (speaking of which he'd be surprisingly good at giving hugs... despite everything about him they're very warm and homely.)

She'd be surprised but very appreciative.

If it's non-killing game AU, she'd probably accept your confession. She might not come off as super excited over it, but she is! Things would go at a very healthy pace too, you're just generally a really good couple. Also, I think she'd want to abstain from naughty business until you're both a bit older.

If it is in the killing game though, she'd probably reject you. She'd be very polite about it, and clear that it's only because of the bizarre circumstances. She's already pretty overwhelmed after all.

She wouldn't fall asleep during the confession lol. She'd be flustered - less in a cutesy was and more panicked. She really doesn't think she has the ability to, on top of everything, manage a relationship. Unlike Hu though, this would still apply in a non-killing game AU. As your friendship grows though, she'd start properly seeing that genuine connection is not at all a hindrance but rather an asset to alleviate stress.

If she didn't have feelings for you before your confession, you'd continue as friends. She wouldn't develop romantic feelings by this point, but you'd become inseparable best friends nevertheless.

If she did have feelings beforehand, she might just confess to you. Or she'd start acting a bit shyly with you. Would you confront her about it? If so, she wouldn't try to hide it anyway. She's open to be with you romantically now.

Teruko:

-She did not believe it at first. She thought it was a joke. A really, really bad joke.

-You, the person that pushed past the wall she put up, who helped her somewhat socialize again, and while not trust the others, help her cooperate with everyone, dead in the relaxation room, your head shoved in the water with what seemed like violent intent while your arms were tied behind your back? No.

-Hu held her back as the BDA played while Ace screamed. Teruko looked defeated as she investigated, refusing to look at your body and instead let Arturo (begrudgingly) do the autopsy. She made sure he checked your body thrice so he did not miss anything.

-Until the trial, of course, she did not speak to anyone more than she needed to. But in the trial room, she was ready to convict your culprit to hell and back.

-Aggresive. Charles described her as aggresive during that trial, even attempting to stab the culprit after the vote. She was held back again.

Eden:

-Hysteric crying was all she could do.

-Her, Levi and Rose discovered your contorted body in a way she had never seen limbs bend, and she was a mess as the BDA played.

-Levi held her, staying with her during the investigation and doing his best to comfort her, rubbing circles on her back and letting her cry in his chest.

-She couldn't do much in the trial, as much as she wanted to. She relied on Levi a lot, and was only able to tell her alibi at the supposed time of death.
