Some short but sweet fluffy angst for my Taking Root series.

Filling the following Fluffy July prompts:

Day 1 - Shooting Stars | “You will be okay”

Day 15 - Sleepy | “Hold still for a moment”

Day 31 - Comfort | “Forever?” “Forever.”

April wouldn’t say Leo was emotionally closed off; he just didn’t emote as overtly. When his brothers were excited, they were uncontainable. Mikey was liable to start bouncing off the walls, Donnie could talk a mile a minute, Raph would whoop and whistle until his throat must hurt.

This was pure excitement from Leo, a breath catching as he accepted the books she had brought from the library. Ever-steady hands now unsure, he traced them with reverence—clean covers, crisp pages he’d never had access to. His eyes shone when he could finally bear to tear them away.

Haruki stood at the railing of his balcony and hit record then slowly panned his camera across the skyline. This was a great shot with how the sun was positioned in the sky. He could use it for an opener or ending to a project. He panned back the other way before he headed back into his apartment.

As soon as he stepped inside and closed the door he heard the familiar rat-a-tat-tat of drumsticks hitting practice pads. Haruki followed the sound, letting the camera be his eyes. Once he got to the living room he zoomed in on the source of the noise.

There, on the floor in front of the couch sat a ridiculously hot, shirtless man with short blond hair was so focused on what he was doing that Haruki wasn't sure he'd even notice his presence. That was fine, he liked capturing moments like these. Real, unfiltered, and something they could look back on fondly.

Akihiko twirled the drumstick in his left hand then hit the closest practice pad. After that he finally looked up and tilted his head. He held up his right arm and flexed his muscle without missing a beat, which made Haruki squeak in surprise. Akihiko smirked at the sound.

Akihiko reached all the way above his head and stretched lazy. The camera zoomed in on the way his muscles rippled with the motion. Especially his pecs. Wow.

"What are you doing, Haruuuu?" Akihiko asked.

Haruki jumped and quickly aimed the camera towards his boyfriend's face instead. "N-nothing! Just!" He cleared his throat and ignored the way it burned. "Getting some footage for the next project I want to work on."

"Yeah?" Akihiko hummed.

"Mhm." Haruki nodded as he looked down at the camera and started to adjust some knobs.

"Now what are you doing?" Akihiko asked.

"Changing the settings to accommodate the lighting in this room so you look even better," Haruki said mostly to himself.

"Even better?" Akihiko chuckled when Haruki's face somehow managed to get even redder.

"I can teach you, if you want!" Haruki yelped. Really, he was just trying to change the subject to anything else at this point.

Akihiko thought about it for a moment. He twirled his drumsticks again then said, "Nah, I'm no good behind a camera." He winked at the other man before he smirked and added, "A face like this was meant to be in front of it."

"You'll get scolded if I show that part to Boss, you know," Haruki snickered.

"Then don't do that," Akihiko snorted. He set the drumsticks aside then held out his arms. Though his expression remained mostly unchanged, his hands opened and closed in a grabby motion.

Haruki knew what the other man wanted was certainly not his camera. He left it recording and set it down on the couch. It'd probably be out of focus, but there was a certain charm in that as well.

He approached the blond and took his hand, then was yanked down to the ground with him. Haruki settled in place on his lover's lap and smiled.

"Have I told you that you're beautiful today?" Akihiko asked softly. His arms wrapped around his boyfriend's waist.

"Hmm. I'm not sure." Haruki played coy. Of course he had. The guy couldn't keep himself from saying it even if he wanted to. And it made Haruki feel giddy every single time.

Akihiko leaned in and chuckled against his lips. He knew that was a lie and it tickled him pink to hear it. His grip on his companion tightened as he turned his head and whispered into his ear, "You're so beautiful. I love you, Haru."

A shiver ran down Haruki's spine. Before he even knew what was happening, he was kissing the other man. His head felt like it was in a fog as Akihiko started to trail sweet kisses down his neck. Haruki leaned his head back to give him better access then noticed the camera pointed at them. Oh, right.

"Aki..." He pushed gently against Akihiko's shoulder so he paused, then sighed, "Let me turn the camera off."

day 15 @fluffyjuly

Reincarnation Woes

----

There are times when Jackson just doesn’t understand his grandma, but he always knew better than to ignore her. He was fourteen and she was trusting him with the pack and this.

Which is why he was in the city, following the strange girl who appeared in the bayou every full moon since her mom triggered her curse, even after she somehow managed to find a way to take her mom back to the city with her.

This place was like another world compared to his home and the bayou, even with the wolf following them.

“What’s this?” he asked as they entered another room with high ceilings and polished tables, only this one was filled with books and contained Elijah’s little brother, the eight year old set up on one of the tables with a spread of papers.

“It’s a library.” Elijah’s little brother said, the ‘stupid’ unsaid but still somehow audible.

“You have your own library that takes up a whole room.” he stated in disbelief, not to mention the size of it was about the same as grandma’s cabin.

“You can’t find good grimoires at the public library." Kol chirped

“Grimoire?”

“Spellbook.” Elijah answered as she opened a large visibly old book and used a notebook on another table.

“You're a witch?” he asked as he recognised a moon chart in her notes. “Yes.” Kol nodded.

“Not really” Elijah said at the same side before sighing and expanding with “I don’t practice it, or didn’t, but I think I could break the curse.”

“The crescent-” he started before getting cut off.

“What other curse do you know of.” Kol snapped

“Kol” she hissed and the boy ignored his sister to glare at Jackson before returning to his book.

Jackson took a step closer to look at the papers laid out in front of Elijah

“It doesn't make sense.” he said after getting a glimpse of it, wondering how the mix of words and symbols meant anything let alone a spell.

“It's written in code.” she explained, looking at him and completely unphased the wolf- her mom, coming to sit beside her and resting her large head against her hip..

“It's a mix of languages.” Kol piped up proudly without looking away from his own book

“I can teach you how to read it if you want?” she offered, ignoring her brother’s noise of surprise and anger.

“You’d do that?” he queried with suspicion, from what little he knew witches didn’t share, but if he could help end the curse, he would.

“I offered, didn’t I?” she replied and Jackson found himself sitting besides her without much thought.

"What's that, Reyna?" Eir plops down next to their friend, eyeing the instrument in their hands in confusion.

"It's a lyre!"

"A liar?"

Reyna giggles when Eir squints at the lyre with suspicion. "A lyre, Eir. It makes music!" They lightly strum the lyre's strings, a pleasant melody ringing out.

"Wow! That's neat..."

"I thought it'd be fun to play when we sang!" Reyna grins, but they notice Eir staring intently at the instrument. "Do you want to learn how to play? I can teach you!"

"Really!?" Eir's eyes light up, and Reyna nods before immediately starting the first lesson.

─── ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ──

[lil babies sob, I love them. Also Kris plays the lyre for all his life and Laurent's the one who taught him at first… so sweet I'm dying]
