Housewarden Vil had a strong distaste for your low quality moisturiser. It left you red, flakey and anything but moisturised! This was a true issue as even Vil’s personal line of skincare was still leaving you flakey and sore. Not long after this discovery, Vil mentioned how he got this all natural, perfect moisturiser from the merchant himself, Azul Ashengrotto, housewarden of Octavinelle. You feel that this was a risky move as Azul was known for his.. odd deals. Reluctantly, you did eventually agree to visit him after Vil demanded you to at least try it. Here you were now, visiting the merchant of the depths and his dumb eel friends. Jade was known for his more manipulative tactics when it comes to people who go against deals. Floyd on the other hand, oh boy Floyd. He scared the absolute sevens out of most people. He ‘squeezes’ people. What isn’t there to fear!?
You’re outside the Mostro Lounge. It’s quite beautiful, even from the outside of the infamous cafe. You step in and the busyness of the lounge overwhelms you. The majority of your friends are working there, (Ace and Deuce included) and there’s the one and only Azul Ashengrotto. You approach reluctantly, already skeptical of what schemes he may have in mind. Suddenly, he lights up when he sees you, looking over at Floyd before walking towards you. “Ah, (name) how great it is to see you!” He knows your name? How? You’ve never spoken to this guy before! “You know my name? How.. nevermind.. Housewarden Vil said you’re able to get an all natural moisturiser. I would like to request a bottle,” You watch Azul smile, looking at Floyd again. He gestures for Floyd to come over. Why? Oh god did you say something wrong? Are YOU going to be squeezed? Wait a damn second.. Floyd Leech looks slightly nervous as he approaches. Why’s HE nervous? You’re the one that can’t fight him off if he’s told you squeeze you. He’s reluctant to come over. Maybe he’s in one of his moods? Well the moods you’ve heard of are where he seems like he’s planning to murder you. “Ya? Whattdya want Azul..” He sounds uncomfortable, like he’s nervous to be around you. You spot a small bit of pink dusted on his cheeks. That’s weird.. he always looks pale and almost sickly. “Our dear Pomefiore friend is looking for some of that amazing moisturiser! You’ll be happy to oblige and ensure it’s created right.” It didn’t sound like a question, more like a demand.. These guys are creepy, but Floyd looks kinda cute when he’s uncomfortable. “Again!?” Oh god he’s frustrated. “It’s fine if you can’t get it, I’ll just cope with it myself.” You watch Azul lean over and whisper something into Floyd’s ear, his entire demeanour changes. He seems a little more willing than before. Nothing is explained to you before you’re taken to Azul’s office to conjure up a deal.
“Now, the terms are that I will deliver this moisturiser to you in under a week, and in return, you will speak with Floyd, and become friends with him.” What. These are bizarre terms.. but at least they aren’t that you have to give him your entire life’s savings. “Uh.. sure.. weird terms though.” You sign the dotted line and boom! The deal is sealed. Now all you have to do is talk to Floyd leech without having a panic attack.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
After long days of recovery in the infirmary from being stressed over multiple things, you finally got back into your school social life by mingling with everyone, getting to know the gossip that happened over the time you were stuck in bed and eating medicine for your health issues.
Sure you got lectured by your lover for not taking care of yourself, but that was always Vil's way of showing he cared, by nagging and nagging <3.
It got a bit hard for Vil to nag you however when you were all over the place, talking to this person, then talking to that person, and so on. You were always busy doing something with someone. Of course it was good you were back on your feet and socialising but it only became a problem when a certain beastman took interest in you.
Vil had told Rook to keep an eye out for you whenever he himself was busy and the result of those observations always managed to get him even more riled up than they should have.
"what do you mean that beastman is always around him? does he have no care for personal space." Vil argued to himself after listening to the things Rook had reported to him.
"but also Roi du Poison, Roi des Lions has been a bit.."
Vil furrowed his eyebrows in anger, raising his voice loud enough for the birds around the dorm to flutter far away.
"THAT BEASTMAN DOES WHAT?!"
Oh boy was he angry alright. He immediately went on his way to find that beastman who was flirting with what was his.
You walked out of the cafeteria after finishing lunch and took a stroll in the courtyard to free your mind a bit but unfortunately was followed by a certain individual.
"no one will bother you if im around" He spoke quietly next to you with a grin."
"haha very funny Leona. I want a quiet place to take my medicine" You replied while looking elsewhere, trying to find an empty spot to sit down.
"there's always the botanical garden."
You tutted and shook your head. "you'll coax me into taking a nap and miss my classes" The two chatted more until finally sitting down under a nearby tree for shade with Leona leisurely laying down about to take a nap.
"i dont just offer for anyone y'know" He continues with a long sigh.
You side eyed him while you took out your small pouch of medicine. To be honest, you don't know why Leona had decided to approach you in the first place since you were a Pomefiore student and were 'too pompous' for his liking.
You gulped down your medicine and continue your conversation with Leona a bit more before you both heard clacking of high heels heading your way.
"(Y/N)."
Vil called out once he reached the two, very clearly avoiding the glare of the beastman in his presence. "hm? Vil?"
"Why are you hanging out with this.. beastman?" He replied to you, in return getting an annoyed grumble coming from the other man in question.
You shrugged and tried to tell him you didn't know why he was following you around but for some reason your words just went out the other ear.
"you understand that the more you spend with him the less time you spend on yourself." He continued complaining.
You looked back to Leona with an apologetic look while he was being dissed right in front of his face, but there was nothing you could do about it. Sure these quarrels happen a lot between the two housewardens but that doesn't make it any less bearable.
Suddenly you were pulled up by Vil as he grabbed a hold of your arm and told you to stand up. "you're even missing your beauty lessons I gave you, you dare skip out on those?" You was confused because Vil had never mentioned such lessons before.
"huh? wha-"
"come along now" Vil dragged you away quickly and cutting off your sentence, leaving behind a grumbling Leona alone. "b-but Vil you've never talked to me about beauty lessons-"
You tried speaking out but it was clear that Vil wasn't listening to you at all and continued walking until you both turned to an empty corner where Vil gently pushed you against the wall.
"his smell is all over you." Vil tutted in slight disgust. You could only pout at the sudden harshness your housewarden was showing you.
Vil continued talking while taking out a slim bottle from the inside of his jacket pocket and taking off the cap. "you're lucky I bring a small bottle of perfume with me." You sighed as you squinted your eyes and scrunched your nose attack of perfume on you.
This was puzzling to you since Vil knew very well you had a sensitive nose but nonetheless gave you a few sprits of his beloved perfume.
"now loosen your tie and unbutton your collar." Vil then ordered, placing the perfume back into his pocket. You felt your cheeks heat up at the sudden order, and before you were able to question him he immediately continued,
"listen to your housewarden."
Vil rarely used his housewarden authority on you so you were worried what would happened if you didn't listen, you nervously loosened your tie and unbuttoned your collar while trying to maintain eye contact with Vil.
As soon as you finished Vil took your hands into his own and occupied them as he leaned down and pressed a soft kiss on his cheek. "now be good and don't squirm, understood?"
Extremely overwhelmed and confused, you couldn't comprehend what was happening until you felt soft lips against the skin on your neck. He placed multiple kisses along the side of your neck, occasionally leaving a single bite mark as well.
It was very rare that he would ever do such a thing but in this moment, the feelings of jealousy and possessiveness swirling inside him wouldn't go away so he just had to leave marks so everyone knew who you belonged to.
He continued kissing and sucking along your collarbone, listening to your mumbled words and hot breath against your ear. Your Breathing picked up as you squirmed your hands a bit, wanting to get out of Vil's grip but it was impossible.
"what did I say?" You immediately heard, earning an annoyed glance from Vil's eyes.
Vil stopped for a second and let go of your hands, to which quickly found their way under Vil's jacket, gripping onto the inner vest fabric. "careful. do not mess up my uniform sweet pea." He spoke before tilting your head to the side.
"other side now, shall we."
Leaving a string of kisses and love bites on your neck and collar bone again on the opposite side. It was clear how smudged his lipstick was at this point and pulled back finally, taking a long satisfied look at his creation.
Your face was red all over, a single kiss mark on your cheek and your neck was littered with signs of Vil and still a hint of that perfume smell from earlier.
"how beautiful.."
He smiled, taking out a small handkerchief a wiping his lips. "button up and re-do your tie, i need to reapply my lipstick. you will follow me for the rest of the day, and do not dare to wipe anything off."
REUPLOAD: I messed a bunch of things up and had accidently deleted the original post. Good thing I have google docs lol.
I would like to start this by saying Idia is such a hard character for me to write. But, my new beta reader Helios, who is appalled by my grammar, is a huge fan of him. (Edit: Who didn't catch we misspelled his name lol) The things we do for our friends... Anyways, this is also the last one shot I make before I try to shift my focus with my writing. I don't do a very good job at the romance aspect of these things and I want to get better at it. After this, I'm going to force myself to focus more on the character interactions than the plot!! Also, Helios has greatly improved their French, but three different translators were still used. That aside, sorry for the long note and I hope you enjoy! Graphic made by @saradika-graphics!
Summary: Being a Pomefiore student isn’t all fashion and potions, (Y/n) is proof of that. One meeting through an ipad and Idia convinces Ortho to steal them away.
Word Count: 3271
The Pomefiore dorm had a lot of rules. Don’t cross your dorm uniform robes right over left, make sure your makeup is pristine before leaving the dorm, make sure you have another student with you if plan to go down into the cellar, and for the love of Great Sevens, don’t insult (Y/n) in the Housewarden’s presence. While only a few of the rules were mentioned, those few are necessary for survival.
No one really knows where (Y/n) came from, obviously the mirror sorted them here, but Vil’s fondness came out of nowhere. Maybe if the residents looked closer and paid attention to what Rook was always passionately saying they could figure it out.
(Y/n) came from a family of actors, well-known actors for that matter. The Storybrooks. Actors who have partnered with Vil in the past. Growing up, (Y/n) had always been dragged to the shoots their parents were on, but it allowed them to meet Vil. Being the only two kids on set made a bond that was hard to break. Well… there was another kid, but Vil didn’t like to talk about him.
And boy was Vil defensive when it came to the second year.
Last week there was an… incident. (Y/n) was fond of the flora that grew around the Pomefiore dorm grounds. It was fairly often for them to be seen tending to some poor wilting plant, dirt on their hands and knees. Rook would often join them, pointing out the elegant techniques the second year was displaying as well as calling out to people who were staring for too long. Vil would never join, not that he hated dirt, but he was also watching. Throughout their childhood, (Y/n) always had suitors. None of them had (Y/n)’s best intentions in mind, so Vil made sure to always chase them away. Either with his own charm or playing into the villain role he always got stuck with. Vil got his own of course, but going after his first friend? His childhood friend? Poor call.
The incident started because three Savanaclaw students had found their way into the garden bed that (Y/n) was working in. Rook was calling out to them in his typical fashion, but it didn’t stop them. (Y/n) was fully focused on the flower that was drooping until a boot squashed it. Before the second year could even respond, Vil came storming across the grounds with the fury of an angry parent. The poor Savanaclaw members ended up blasted back through the mirror in which they had entered from.
Housewarden meetings got a little more icy between Vil and Leona, which was just what the school needed.
(Y/n) decided to change locations after that, moving to the courtyard on the main campus grounds. They didn’t quite like being watched by both Rook and Vil in the Pomefiore dorm, so moving to a more secluded spot had a lot of positive outcomes.
Including Ortho.
At their first meeting, Ortho had expressed his surprise at seeing a Pomefiore member digging in the dirt. (Y/n) responded by showing the humanoid a handful of pink flowers and a warm smile. The student quickly shot up in Ortho’s ranks.
The two spent many days in the courtyard getting to know each other. How Ortho had a brother he worried about. How (Y/n) thought Vil was a little bit too protective. It doesn’t take long for the humanoid to think the Pomefiore resident would be the perfect friend for Idia. Maybe a little bit misguided but he’s desperate to get him out of the dorm.
Idia of course refuses to leave, so Ortho brings the tablet with him the next day.
“(Y/n) Storybrook! I have brought my brother to our meeting today!” The humanoid exclaimed cheerfully as he floated over to the student of his attention, already kneeling into a flowerbed. The second year turned their head to only see Ortho and not another student. However, there was a tablet being held in the humanoid’s arms with a cool skull emblem. Not one to judge, (Y/n) dusted the dirt off their hands and stood up to greet the pair.
“Idia! Ortho has told me so much about you! He said you’re really good with technology? I wish I was, but my talents are towards plants.” The Pomefiore resident chuckled out as they waved at the camera, not quite sure if that thing was just audio or not. There was some silence for a while before Idia’s voice rang out.
“What… What kind of plants do you like?”
Ortho let out a pleasant sound at his brother finding interest in another person and even asked what he would consider a personal question. Watching (Y/n)’s face, and totally not checking vitals, he could tell that they were pleased as well.
“All of them! But, I tend to stick to flowers, which fits the Pomefiore image. As well as some toxic plants which… also fits Pomefiore’s image. I always wanted to tend to trees though! Either an apple tree, Seven’s I’m a stereotype, or a pomegranate tree.”
“...Pomegranate?”
“There’s uh… There’s this video game I like where you can give npcs things and well- my favorite likes pomegranates.”
Another moment of silence passed between the three before a notification popped up in Ortho’s vision.
‘Come back to Ignihyde.’
With a quick goodbye to (Y/n), the humanoid flew back to his brother’s dorm, finding the blue haired Housewarden pacing the floor. His vitals were rising and he had a toothy grin on his face.
“Ortho! You found a Pomefiore student that’s not a normie!? Video games and an interest in something quiet! Do you know if they're an introvert?”
Putting a finger under his chin, Ortho looked up in thought as Idia eagerly leaned forward towards the humanoid.
“They like the peace of the courtyard and don’t hang out with more than three students, at least from what I’ve seen.”
Idia cheered as he launched himself into his desk chair, multiple images were on the monitor screens. A pomegranate tree seedling and a pot were in a shopping cart on one. Bioengineering how-to was on the other one and the last one…
“The myth of Persophne and Hades? Idia, why are you looking into one of the Seven and his wife.” Ortho asked as he watched his brother with one eye and searched up the myth on the other. After a quick scan, the humanoid didn’t quite know how to feel about it.
“It’s easy! We’re gonna save (Y/n) from that extrovert dorm! It’s like saving the princess in an RPG if the princess was a mage and from a famous family.”
“The myth says that Hades kidnapped Persephone."
Idia groaned as he spun his chair to face Ortho and pointed at the humanoid with a gear. “Yeah and it worked out great for them! I show (Y/n) how similar we are and then they agree to be my player two!”
If Ortho wasn’t overjoyed that his brother was taking an interest in another human then he would have tried to convince Idia that following a myth about one of the Great Seven, especially Hades, might have not been a good idea. But he was. And (Y/n) Storybrook was a kind person.
“You’re going to leave the dorm?”
“Tartarus no! You’re going to do that!”
(Y/n) may or may not have screamed their entire way down into Ignihyde. It would have been fine if Ortho had simply said follow me, it would have worked, the being tied up and dragged was a bit much. The humanoid might have been a little too enthusiastic.
With the bright blue lights and columns, it was like stepping into an entirely new world. There was not a sign of natural light and the pulse of electricity could be heard the deeper they went into the hallways. It felt like a maze, but Ortho navigated through it with ease. What felt like an eternity later, (Y/n) was thrown into a room with the door quickly snapping behind them.
“That doesn’t look comfortable…”
A voice that was too familiar moaned from the bed in the corner. Tablet boy! Wait, what did Ortho say his name was? The humanoid talked about his brother a lot and how could they have forgotten? They had totally known it when they first met. Why wasn’t it coming to mind now? Wait, it was:
Idia. Idia Shroud, Housewarden of Ignihyde.
“Then untie me, this is a little out of hand.” (Y/n) declared, channeling their inner Vil as they said the words. It seemed to have worked since Idia let out a yelp and quickly moved to release them from whatever Ortho had used earlier. With their hands free, the Pomefiore student was more confident to stand up and look around their surroundings.
The dorm was a mess. Clothes thrown in a corner and snacks piled up on the desk. Those snacks would send Vil into a three hour lecture as well. There were bits of mechanics laying around as well and wires were on the floor. Not only was it a mess, but it was also a safety hazard.
“You live like this?” Rolled off the second year’s tongue a little too easily. All the publicity lessons from their parents are forgotten as well as Vil’s elegance training. They could see a future of being lectured with Epel.
The blue-haired teen muttered something unintelligible as he sidestepped a pile of clothes to take a seat at the desk. He stared at (Y/n) for a second before pulling out an ottoman from underneath the desk.
“You can take a seat or whatever…” He muttered as he slowly began to tinker with what looked like a circuit board. Not really having any other choice, (Y/n) sat down beside Idia. After a moment of silence, the Housewarden coughed awkwardly. “Uh, you said you liked plants right?” Not waiting for a response, he reached out and scooped up a pot from behind his monitor.
There was definitely something growing in there. The seedling was missing the normal healthy green and was instead a light grey. Instead of leaves reaching out it had gears. Tentatively, the Pomefiore student reached a hand out towards the pot and Idia happily gave it to them. Idia had clearly listened to their first meeting, because (Y/n)’s eyes lit up as they examined the plant.
“Does it require sunlight? How did you create it? Have there been other successful outcomes with this species? Is this the first?” The questions kept spilling out of their mouth and Idia flashed a sharp grin as he leaned closer.
“No, it can survive completely without light. I managed to grow a simple sunflower and combined it with some hardware I had around. The first one I didn’t even use magic! It didn’t sprout though… This is the first to actually sprout and I based it around-”
“A pomegranate tree. You made a mechanical pomegranate tree. That’s amazing!”
At the praise, Idia’s hair flashed a soft pink. “It’s- It’s not that impressive…” He stuttered out as (Y/n) returned the pot to him with a bright smile on their face. If Ortho was here he would very much be making comments about how humble Idia was being. “But uh, Ortho isn’t going to be opening that door anytime soon, so do you uh… play video games or anything like that?”
“I’m rather fond of Stardew Valley.”
“That normie- I mean, sounds great!”
“Where’s (Y/n)?”
The entire dorm froze at the stern tone of Vil’s voice. Since early afternoon, no one in Pomefiore had seen or heard from the second year student. The three students who had been in charge of tailing after them were currently entering the basement one at a time. They were all ignoring the screams.
Rook was doing his best to keep Vil calm, but even his efforts were unsuccessful. Every mutter of soft words was met with a harsh glare. Vil was pacing in front of the group of Pomefiore students, his glare getting worse as the minutes ticked by.
“I will ask again, where is (Y/n)?” Some of his anger was slipping, not that the average student would notice, as desperation was filtering in. Lots of students shrank away from the Housewarden in terrified silence. However, the silence did not last for long as the entrance doors to the common area slammed open and a panicked Epel ran in.
“They got ‘napped! I was watching them, honest, and I turned around for one sec and they were gone!” He yelled with a wheeze as he stopped in front of Vil to catch his breath. He was in such a panic that his accent even slipped out a bit. Vil was so preoccupied with (Y/n)’s disappearance that he didn’t even comment on the accent. The Housewarden stalked down towards them, his robe filtering behind him. Rook was closely at his beloved’s heels, a grin plastered on his face at some news about where the second year was.
Vil crouched down to Epel’s level in one of the most elegant ways to be seen as he calmly gripped Epel’s chin. There was venom in his eyes that had not appeared since Neige took the latest hero roll.
“Who?”
The sun was setting in the outside world, not that anyone in Ignihyde noticed. It was a fairly normal day for the dorm, the Housewarden wasn’t seen and his brother was standing guard outside his room. The only thing out of the ordinary was actually another voice coming from the room. Ortho chased anyone who stayed trying to listen to the conversation inside.
“My crops! You didn’t water them!”
“I was soloing the mines, how was I supposed to know you didn’t water them?!”
In the hours the two had spent together, the pair had made their way to Idia’s bed to continue their game. (Y/n)’s outer robe of their dorm uniform was added to the blue-haired boy’s pile of clothes on the floor. They had also swiped a spare hoodie. In their aggressive game, the second year had ended up sitting in between Idia’s legs with the third-year’s head resting on top of theirs. It was the perfect picture of domestic life if the two were a couple and not yelling at each other.
“I was growing a pomegranate tree! I was going after Elliot!”
The Pomefiore resident whined as they moved their character in a circle around Idia’s. There was a noise that sounded between frustration and perhaps… jealousy from the blue-haired boy as he moved from his cozy spot to stand up and move over to the desk. He picked up the pot and set it on (Y/n)’s lap.
“Who needs a stupid in-game pomegranate tree when I made you one! No npc with premade dialogue could ever compare to the devotion I would put towards an SSR like you.” The Housewarden declared as his blue hair turned a shade of dark pink as he then shrank into his hoodie. Their fingers laced around the terracotta of the pot as the Pomefiore resident looked up at the blushing boy. They had to fight a soft laugh as the pot was moved to a bedside table and they crawled to the edge of the bed. It was cute seeing Idia so worked up and (Y/n) did enjoy their company. Ignore that they were practically kidnapped.
“You’re right… I’m sure you could give me a lot of devotion.” It rolled off the tongue so well that seeing that pink grow a shade darker was worth it. After watching Vil and Rook flirt with each other so many times it was easy to pick up a thing or two. Those two were dreadful.
A flustered Idia was very interesting to watch as well. He stuttered over his words more and a blush to match his hair. It stirred some feelings in the Pomefiore student that they were about to express before they picked up on yelling happening outside the door.
“Excuse me? I am the Housewarden to Pomefiore and you have kidnapped one of the students from my dorm. I have the right to curse you right now!” The shrill voice of Vil’s anger echoed into the small space. (Y/n) was having fun, but figured opening the door to stop whatever was happening was a better idea. Quickly scurrying off the bed and flinging the door open, several things happened.
One, Rook fully saw the pink Housewarden standing behind the second year. He noticed the purple robe of the Pomefiore dorm uniform on the floor and the hoodie they wore. He came to an idea that was very far from the truth and smirked at (Y/n).
Two, Vil was about to murder Ortho in a blind rage before he saw (Y/n). With no robe and an unfashionable hoodie that only the Ignihyde Housewarden wore. They saw said Housewarden blushing a dark pink along with their hair. Vil… didn’t know how to feel. They gave (Y/n) a small glare.
Third and finally, Idia thought he was going to die. It looked so bad, robe gone and hoodie on, his hoodie! It was nice seeing (Y/n) in his hoodie but with Vil glaring at him he was about to snatch it from the second year. It felt like a ‘several people are typing’ moment and Idia did not enjoy it.
Vil spoke first.
“IDIA SHROUD!”
“Eep! Y-yes?”
Vil stepped forward, past (Y/n), and glared at the other Housewarden before a firm hand was gripping his shoulder. Idia wanted to run. The blond leaned forward so that they could easily whisper to the blue haired boy.
“You are acceptable. However, I believe I do not need to explain what will happen if you disprove that theory.”
“Nope!”
And then Vil elegantly spun on his heels and gave a soft smile to (Y/n). “I’m glad you are fine, we simply overreacted. Do let us know when you plan to visit Ignihyde again though.” (Y/n) chuckled and felt that now was not a good time to mention that Ortho had kidnapped them. Rook sauntered over and put a hand over his chest like he was about to deliver a sonnet.
“Merveilleux! Young love-”
“We’re the same age-”
“Young love! Do look after Vil’s l’enfant, he will be heartbroken if our (Y/n) is not well cared for!”
“Are they a plant-” Idia tried to argue to which (Y/n) quickly spoke over Idia. “Do not worry, Rook, I will be fine. On n’a pas fait l’amour, Rook, s’il te plaît, ne dis pas à Vil ce que tu penses qu’il s’est passé.”
“Oui.”
Rook took Vil’s hand in his and waved goodbye to the second year and Iida. Which was most likely a good idea. Vil was calm for now but that could quickly change and besides, (Y/n) wanted to spend some time with Idia. On their own accord.
“You want to continue our save or cuddle?”
“We still have ten days before fall so I want to make sure we got all the crops for the community center so we can grind the money makers and then- WAIT! (Y/n), stop laughing! That wasn’t fair! We can cuddle?! Are we dating?! Do I change my relationship status on Magicam?!”
The translation for what (Y/n) says to Rook is: "We didn't make love, Rook, please don't tell Vil what you think happened."
The question, uttered weirdly sweet from cloying lips, takes Ruggie by surprise. So much even, that he stares for a good second before he averts his gaze.
The first time this strange person talks to him after an hour and it's something so existential. But maybe that's one thing to expect from someone so close to losing themselves.
Eyes gazed upward as he takes in the stalwart blue of sky, Ruggie speaks.
"I'm pretty sure we are," he tries to not talk too formally—though something about him made the hyena alert, awkward. Like he is a blemish to be cleaned, as if it's a sacrilege to bask in the sweetness.
Weird.
"You have to be. To survive."
Awkward. So awkward. If Ruggie wasn't sitting cross-legged beside the person, he thinks he might be shuffling his feet.
"I don't really know what made you want to..." Caught up in his thoughts, he ruffles a hand through rarely combed hair. He does not notice it, but lavender eyes follow the action with a look of genuine adoration.
"But I s'pose if you feel stuck in a place and you can't breath but you still stay, that makes you strong. I think."
"You don't think it's foolish?"
"...why would it be foolish to live, senpai?"
Laughter. Soft, gentle, and coaxing, it teases his ears as it erupts like musical notes in the air. He sends Ruggie a smile, and the second year doesn't know why, but it felt like unlocking a box of sweets. He thinks he's being an idiot—what difference did it make? He's seen smiles before. But the lilt of that grin, the way it carved on smooth, perfect skin. Oh Great Sevens. There is something in that smile that snakes through his ribs and grabs hold of his heart, had it racing like feet through hot, savana roads and sun.
I don't get it. Geez, I don't get it at all.
"Have another one, kouhai!" A donut was unceremoniously shoved in his lips, dusting them with powdered sugar and a sweetness of memory. Still stunned, Ruggie watches as the confectionery dust smudges on purple robes.
What am I even doing here?
He takes a bite from the offered treat, straight from the hand of the Pomefiore senior he's only met because he was tempted by the idea of being understood for once—
He doesn't care. For now, he sees that senpai doesn't care about perfection or survival or living, all these philosophical questions Ruggie is always too preoccupied to think about.
“Someday, my prince will come...”
And then he sings, a lullaby. Taking in the last bite of the treat that is now in his hands, Ruggie feels his eyelids droop. Like they are teased by a magic spell of beckoning dreams, strange yet familiar.
Unique magic.
As he falls into the familiar comfort of black, Ruggie hopes Leona is still taking a nap.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
While strolling the courtyard at noon, You found yourself admiring the Diasomnia's housewarden that was peacefully sitting on one of the benches. Normally it would be impossible to find Malleus in such a setting but You didn't want the chance to go to waste, so you walked up and spoke, "hi, may i sit here?".
Unsure if it was actually him being spoken to, Malleus side eyed You before letting out a small reply. "do what you like" So You took the offer and sat next to him.
A bit timid in the moment, Malleus decided to stand up and head back to his dorm room since he was sure you're scared of him being there but you casually stopped him, "oh hey i want to sit next to you, stay awhile" You said with a smile. Confused why the human would approach him so, Malleus sat back down with a small huff.
The quiet tension was too prominent that you tried to ease it by making some small talk with him.
"so you like sitting here?"
"not usually, people tend to stare."
"mm~ well then we should should make it our spot."
"we? our...?"
You casually asked the question seemingly unfazed by how confused the fae was. Even though he sat there in uncertainty with what you meant, you paid it no mind and took out your phone to scrolled a bit while they sat in a somewhat comfortable silence. "d'you like to take pictures? the sunset is nice"
As you raised your hand to hold up the camera for a selfie with the nice sunset glow bouncing off them, Malleus seemed unsure and you noticed throught the screen.
"is everything alright? do you not want to.." You trailed off once he focused his gaze to you.
He shook his head at your question and explained that there was a time Cater tried taking pictures of him and they all came out blurry. He didn't want to risk it happening again though you bravelg nudged yourself closer to him for reassurance.
"trying again doesn't do any harm, plus its pretty don't ya think?" You then showed Malleus the picture you took.
After a few more chatter between the two of you, you both bid your goodbye's and surprisingly Malleus had the warm feeling of wanting to meet again. The same could very well be said for yourself.
The next day comes and goes quickly as they are both busy with their schedules.
"ah Malleus!" You called out once you saw the fae about to walk away from the bench they first talked at, "sorry I'm a bit late" You huffed as they both sat down.
"busy? no worries" He replied.
"yeah just got caught up with some errands.. anyway, you were waiting for me?" You teased, taking out your phone in wait for a reply, but you weren't met with any words from the other.
The thing is, Malleus was waiting for you to be done scrolling before he continued the conversation because he learned it was a bit rude to interupt someone on their phone...
Once you noticed he was waiting you swiftly put your phone and just like yesterday theh continued their light chatter.
"Y/N, could you possibly teach me how to take a photo as we did yesterday?" Malleus asked out of the blue. You were a bit taken aback he was asking you of all people, but you just smiled and replied happily, "yeah sure!"
While introducing the camera settings and photo taking basics to Malleus, you carefully passed your phone (after hearing the rumors he burned through 2, you needed to...) to the fae to hold it in the direction of the well in the middle of the courtyard.
"um,, may i?" You gestured to holding Malleus' hands on your phone to guide him better. "ah yes, it's only proper that you do," You let out a slow breath before placing your hands over the fae's bigger ones and positioned them better while talking him through it.
After taking the picture you explained a bit more about some composition stuff and they finally looked at the picture together. "it looks really nice for a beginner."
Malleus tried to hide it but his cheeks grew ever the slightest hue of pink once the sweet sound of your gentle laughter was heard.
"that was fun~ let's take another one before we go"
The two smiled as you took another photo of you both together before parting ways yet again. Though, surprisingly you didn't see Malleus for a while after that. Thinking the fae didn't want to see you anymore, you just stuck to staying back in the classrooms or heading to the library to do work alone.
Unbeknownst to you however, Malleus was doing a small 'side quest' of his own.
=======
The day after, Malleus headed over to the Heartslabyul dorm, looking for a certain ginger haired third year. "Pardon, is Cater here?"
"oho~ Malleus what's up?" The smileful ginger called out.
"I may need to borrow you for a bit of assistance."
His tone a bit off-putting and obviously it made Cater unsure if this was a good thing or a bad thing but went along with it nonetheless. "a-ah okay~ where're we headin'?" Cater stood up and walked out with Malleus out of Heartslabyul.
"Could you teach me how to take good photos on the phone? I would like a bit more practice." Malleus asked out of the blue once they reached the botanical garden.
What a shocker! Cater couldn't believe his ears. "eehh~ you want to learn more? who was it before?~ well~ I could definitely try to show you haha!" He laughed. Starting then did Malleus wait for Cater to help teach him about the basics of photography starting with how to get good lighting, perfect backgrounds, and whatnot.
=======
One evening after 2 weeks or so from not seeing each other, you finally decided to go back to the courtyard and sit on the bench again however saddened that the Diasomnia housewarden wasn't there to chat with. It's not like you could just ask anyone where he would be.
Right until a few minutes later when said fae actually did appear.
"Did I keep you waiting this time, Y/N?" Malleus called out to you with a small smile on his face. Your cheeks betrayed you witha growing blush at hearing his voice softly call out your name like it was magic. You quickly straighten your posture and waved at him to come sit down. "it started to feel like you didn't like me" You nervously joked in hopes to get answers on where he was.
Malleus tutted and raised his hand, surprisingly holding a phone. "It's not like that at all."
"hmm~? you got a phone!" Yuu stated happily. Malleus smiled and also happily showed off his new phone. Even though he still didn't get the hang of most things, he was proud to share the pictures that he learned how to take.
Together you chatted and laughed with each other as if good old friends when you cleared your throat and shyly asked for the fae's contact number, though Malleus only stared at you with minor confusion.
You carefully asked if you could hold his phone to show him about the contact list and how to text. "see, Cater already put his number in here" You smiled once you finally put two and two together that Cater was the one helping Malleus before this.
The two bid farewell again as they went back to their respected dorms, both with blush cheeks and an endearing smile on their faces.
It was a bit odd to other Diasomnia dorm students when they found out Malleus was now using a phone but nevertheless they didn't question it.
After weeks and months pass, you two get increasingly closer.
With an arm wrapped around your waist and his hand on his hip they laughed and chatted together on the usual bench in the courtyard. "ahahaha Malleus c'mon~" You giggled as you felt him nuzzle against your temple.
"you want more pictures?" Malleus smiled gently, a rare sight in public for the fae. You blushed as you nodded softly before taking your phone out.
You tells Malleus to unwrap his arm so you can hold hands properly on your laps. You takes a swift picture and change it to your lockscreen immediately. "my my, is that to show that I am yours?" Malleus stated, making you let out another giggle.
After that you two walked through the corridors together, on the way to class before you stop at a corner to chat just a bit more before parting ways. "and then I was informing Silver about- Y/N? Dear are you listening?" He smiles fondly.
"yeah I am~ Malley~ which side do you like my kisses on?" You suddenly asked, looking for something in your jacket pocket.
"ah so suddenly? hm..." Malleus hums, seeing you make eye contact with him as you puts on some black lipstick.
"I would have to say on my right" He chuckles.
You smile and gently place a hand on Malleus' neck, pulling him down closer to kiss him on the right cheek, leaving a kiss mark. At first he was surprised but he was even more surprised when you kissed him again on the lips, leaving another kiss mark but slightly crooked. "Your lips are smudged now.." Malleus pouts playfully, seeing the smudged lipstick on his partners lips.
"I wish I could keep it that way but if Vil saw i would get scolded" You giggled before taking a tissue and gently wiping off the black lipstick off your own lips.
"then you should kiss me more in bed, where no other eyes will see." He casually teased before turning the corner and heading to class, leaving you a tomato red face at the corner of the corridor.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
After an unfortunate incident during potion class, Leona who thought about finally trying to bring his attendance up again got caught in the crossfire, turning him into a smaller cat with a light and dark brown fluffy fur pattern.
Thankfully for him, Ruggie was in the same combined class which came to his aid in a fit of laughter. The junior asked Professor Crewel damages had been done and how long the effects would last.
"it won't last more than 12 hours so youre in luck. however its only 6pm so you'll have to make do until sunrise."
With clear angry protests emitting from the now turned cat, Leona hissed and growled at being picked up and so opted to walk back to Savanaclaw on his own even though it would be a hassle. He would much so rather walk than to be picked up by some other student to manhandle him however they wanted.
Right before he was about to turn the corner he smelt someone coming and sat quietly in a blind spot in hopes to not be seen by the passerby. After confirming that the student had walked passed without noticing him he thought he was safe to start his journey again when he suddenly got lifted up in the air.
"aww what a pretty kitty"
Leona grumbled and turned his head to try and get out of your grasp but ultimately failed. You were surprisingly strong to hold onto such a cat that was squirming in your arms to let loose.
"you're all alone..?" Your voice chimed out while you started walking towards the hall of mirrors. Leona finally looked up to see which dorm he was being brought to and to his dismay it was the worst one he could have ever imagined.
Pomefiore.
As hard as he tried you just wouldn't budge so alas he took in his fate once he finally started focusing back on the mumbling coming from behind him.
"well in my defense I'd like to take you in for the night at least to give you some shelter even if its against the headmage's rule to not allow pets on school grounds... it's not like he'll know"
You smiled to yourself as you made your way to the dorm where you resided, trying to be extremely careful as to not alarm your strictful housewarden.
"kitty are you hungry?~— .......ah.." You sighed after seeing the cat had already fallen asleep on their bed, seeing it blissfully enjoy the soft duvet covers under its paws.
After who knows how long, Leona softly woke up to the feeling of being petted and the calling of the name you had given him earlier. "pretty kitty..~ wake up.. you must be hungry hmm? i got tuna and beef because i don't know which you'd like more", You spoke while you held up 2 cans of different flavoured food. Just by the packaging Leona knew they were expensive brands and he was in for a delicious dinner.
He pretended to obey you and got up to stretch while you prepared two separate plates of food. His eyes widened at the strong delicious smell, quickly hopping off the bed and waiting for the food to be given to him.
"kitt- oh.! smells good right?" You chuckled before placing down the plates. Leona sniffed both and then opted to eat the beef first, seeing as it was more to his preference. "mm? you like the meat more? wonder what i'll do with the tuna then.." You mumbled.
You were about to pick up the tuna plate right before Leona put his paw on your hand to stop you from doing so. Shocked, you let out a small sigh. "want both anyway huh.? greedy~" You mocked, but it wasn't in a mean tone like he would hear other students say.
The clock turned 10pm and Leona was back to grooming himself on you bed, however you were at your vanity, doing your night time routine before bed and talking to the cat.
"hmm kitty did you have a good dinner? i used money to buy that y'know~" You lightly hummed with a smile. Leona saw you were having a good time unknowingly talking to the housewarden of Savanaclaw himself, so Leona just indulged in you words in return for the delicous pampering dinner he had since he would be gone by morning anyway.
or so he thought.
"pretty kitty d'you wanna know my name?~ well.. its not like you'll ever see me again right..? couldn't hurt" You smiled and stood up after finishing. "i kinda suck at animal linguistics so i'll just yap and hope you understand alright! my name is Y/N~ please remember it" You laughed in high spirit. If he could, Leona would roll his eyes right now but he couldn't since you had been treating him so well already.
You finally turn the light off and got into bed swiftly, scooting closer to the cat a bit and started petting him. "oh you're a male i didn't even notice.. i've been calling you pretty kitty ever since.. oh please forgive me kitty" Your voice now turned softer, sleepy even, but you still managed to soothingly pet Leona in the process.
"mm you are still a pretty kitty though.. your fur pattern reminds me of the Savanaclaw housewarden"
Leona's eyes shot up to stare at you, a bit stunned once he finally met your eyes. He'd never paid attention to any Pomefiore student. They were too 'pompous' in his eyes so he couldn't care less, however this particular student who took him in was very gorgeous.
"you even have a little scar to match him haha how cute" He heard you continue speaking.
"mm.. you really remind me of him.. Kingscholar is really handsome y'know.. wonder if you've ever seen him though he might be pretty territorial or something.. mm~ i'm rambling, sorry kitty you can go to sleep~" You sighed, though the troubled look on your face didn't go unnoticed.
Leona couldn't help but want to hear more of how you saw him as a person, so in a split decision he decided to curl up closer to you, which you undeniably loved.
"he's actually pretty smart strategically speaking.. he uses.... methods to get his way but i mean who doesn't in this damn school right? but he's... he's really handsome" You sighed in defeat again.
"i want to say i have a crush on him... but its impossible he'll like someone like me" You grumbled and shuffled onto your back this time, stopping the petting motion on Leona.
"i really like him.." You sighed before moving to your other side and soon falling asleep. Leona was now confused on how you just blatantly unknowingly confessed to your own crush. He let his mind wander for a a bit before falling asleep as well.
The night passes until morning arises but weirdly enough Leona awoke by some weird feeling in his chest. Not just his chest but his whole body felt off, so he stood up and hopped off the bed and sat on the floor for a bit before a puff of smoke erupted and he had changed back to his own self.
"woke me up in the middle of my nap just to change back huh.?" He quietly scowled.
Not long after you woke up to the alarm ringing from your phone. You groggily woke up and stretched before looking around for the cat in a soft spoken voice. "hmm..? kitty..?"
Once you took notice of how your bed felt heavier on one side, you propped yourself up to properly take into account where the heaviness was centered.
Your fingers snaked through your hair, trying to remember if you had misplaced anything on your bed that could have cause such a weight imbalance.
When your eyes finally settled they twitched in confusion, but before you could make sense of anything Leona had already opened his mouth, "im a 'pretty kitty' huh?" he smirked.
"hmm? you were so sweet last night? why so quiet now?"
