#main verse

There’s a flush that appeared over his face as he gazes at his girlfriend who laid nude above him. The night before was a special time..and of course he’s always happy to have shared such moments with her..not to mention it was just nice to hear his name again. Grants..she really does have to practice calling out another name considering one could never be too careful of who’s listening in.

“You were the one who bought a cockring..” Not to mention she even told him that if he wanted relief then he’d have to beg for it. He gave her power for just one night and she’s gotten so drunk with it. What was a mazoku to do? “Let’s jus’..pretend we never heard me beg for anythin’.”

Her breath hitched as he took hold of her wrist, her amber gaze catching his obsidian with a questioning stare. It melted away as he stilled her hand against his cheek, and Riza let herself settle a bit, opting to now let her fingertips lightly brush along the skin near his eye. Those eyes... Those intense, dark eyes she loved so much...

Her body stilled entirely as he worked to shift himself, watching carefully for any hint that perhaps this was a bad idea or he had moved himself to much or too awkwardly. Luckily for them he managed, and the moment his head settled between her breasts, Riza released a breath she hadn't even realized she had been holding. With him carefully settled atop her, she felt an immediate sense of... calm. The nerves of the day immediately dissipated.

Riza felt... content.

One of her arms carefully slipped around his shoulders, taking care not to hold him too tightly or apply too much pressure. The other gently drape over his back, her fingers burying into her raven hair to gently stroke her fingertips against his scalp.

It was a miracle they were here together. Riza knew how close he was to death, if not from bleeding out, but from being found by any of the Central soldiers looking for him. At least they were safe here. Of course she knew it wasn't a complete guarantee they wouldn't be found, but it was still the safest place they could be until they could make their escape.

His words drew a soft chuckle from her lips, gently shaking her head lightly before she allowed her chin to gently rest atop his head. Her heart beat was a soft, steady rhythm now that she had begun to settle down, thanks to his presence and his grounding.

"I'll go back to watch in due time... I couldn't keep staring into the darkness... Black Hayate has taken position at the door. I have full confidence he will alert if something is amiss. As for this risk... We threw caution to the wind a months ago, did we not? I choose that risk back then... I'm not changing my mind now."

She reassured him as her fingers continued their soft, gentle paths allowing her nails to lightly graze against the back of his head. Her eyes fell shut, her breathing slow and even as she let his presence and his weight banish the feelings of dread and anxiety that had been fighting to consume her, leaving only warmth and peace. Feeling his face bury deeper into her chest, she allowed her arms to wrap the slightly be tighter around him. The silence enveloped them like she enveloped him, their safe haven, as they simply laid there. As his voice broke through though, Riza's eyes cracked opened, glistening almost immediately as her eyes wavered with tears.

"I-I know..."

Her voice trembled, her hand gently tightening in his hair for a brief moment before her fingers returned to their previous motion. Those two words... I'm here... They practically overwhelmed her with emotion, pulling out the deep sense of relief she felt knowing that along with the gut wrenching fear that he had been lost to her forever where they crashed together. She fought the tears back, at least for now.

‘I had a bad dream.’

That’s all Yusuke had to read over the text before he was at their house within the dark hours of the day in Japan. Yusuke only hoped he didn’t seem out of sorts by being dressed in an aloha shirt within their home now. He wasn’t in the comfort of his dorm where he needed to hold onto rules and regulations. Now he’s at home to ensure his fiancée sleeps well tonight.

Slowly he had gotten himself into bed, opening his arms so his kitten could come and seek shelter in them. Once she was close, he’d wrap them around her and hold her in a strong and comforting embrace. “I’m here Botan..don’t worry about my studies. It’s nothin’ an all-nighter can’t fix.” And being a yokai meant he could pull off a couple of those repeatedly without negative repercussions on his health.

"Hmmm I don't know...." Yuu mumbles as she looks herself in the mirror. "He said I'd be perfect for the role but the more I look at myself in this dress I can't help but think he chose the wrong girl." The albino was adorned in a beautiful elegant dress with a tiara atop her head. Apparently the drama department lost their leading lady due to poor grades and she had been scouted by the director and the costume designer. At first she turned them down but they both insisted so much that the costume designer even lent her the princesses dress for her to try it on and then tell her she didn't suit the role. "You see it right? A girl like me's much more suited to be a maid instead of a fair maiden." ➥ 𝗨𝗡𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗗 / always accepting

High school seems to be treating her soo much more better than Middle school ever did and for this alone, Yusuke was thrilled. Now he could only home Iwamoto’s hatred for him doesn’t squander any chances for him to get into a good high school once he’s done with his repeat year in middle school. However, he saw the dress they allowed her to come back with and she looked stunning. It suited her more than she cared to admit.

Vash is full big bird cryptid and currently laying in the meadow of grass. Just rolling around in the sun warmed grass and wildflowers to feel good. Adelha's puppy Wesson rolling around with the big feathered creature like it's totally normal.

Adelha is in her human form to be washing the laundry. Watching as two souls she dearly loves get in some leisure and good time to just be outdoors and in the sunshine. She watches the feathered cryptid with a deep forming affection. It's right then and there she finally realizes she's falling in love. Making Adelha blush to give a prayer of thanks to the Lord for such a priceless blessing.

Adelha always treats the Chulainn variants to something special on their birthday. Saber Setanta gets spoiled with honey lemon cookies as well as many face kisses from Adelha. Proto Cu will find he gets a big package of perfectly spiced venison jerky. Cu Alter gets a rather long hot bath in peace and quiet as well as a whole pitcher of spiked raspberry lemon iced tea. Mini Cu will have a whole adventure scavenger hunt planned out for him to find various treats.

Caster Cu will end up with a full day prior of attention. A long spa day with aromatherapy, massage and herbal bath. A good and filling meal of various meats and fruits that he gets to help prepare with Adelha. Just a day and evening of peaceful and simple moments.

Lancer Cu gets his whole day with Adelha to be treasured. A morning of going fishing in some random Singularity to grill the catch (or some set aside fish if they catch nothing) for breakfast. A long walk through Chaldea's Arboretum to savor the beauty and gentle peace. A celebration is held at Adelha's workshop for Lancer to drink and be merry with his fellows. A good day of smiles and laughter.
