#sharon effinger

pairing: irina akulov x gn!reader x murderess/sharon effinger

tags: romantic rivalry, tons of jealousy (mutual), murderess trying to manipulative reader ("playing dirty")

it's not like those two don't hate each other already, but now that they both have their eyes set on you, things only get worse…

irina is the civil one in this situation! she doesn't like causing a scene and acting this immature – but if murderess will play dirty, than irina will do the same!

murderess truly does everything in her power to make you hers! if that woman has her eyes set on something, she won't stop until she has it! and she wants you!

while she hates wasting money, murderess will use it to court you, buy you expensive presents and the finest things NLA has to offer! she'll even dip into the blackmarket, if she has to…

murderess will also accidentally spread some rumors about irina, that turn out to be false. but perhaps it'll be enough anyways to lessen your opinion on her…

irina instead tries to win you over with honesty! she tries to clear up any lies murderess spreads, while also venting out her frustrations about her to you…

irina also has the support of her friends, who genuinely want to see irina end up with you and be happy! meanwhile, murderess can't really buy herself any supporters. in fact, most people would probably love to see her not get what she wants for once in her life…

pairing: murderess / sharon effinger x gn!reader

you should've known from the start that dating sharon wouldn't work out. a woman with the nickname ‘murderess’ just can't be trusted, can she?

and yet, you still fell in love with her, like the fool that you were, thinking that she might change for you. but murderess only truly cared about herself

the day she broke up with you, she stopped putting on an act for you. that sweet side of her you had seen had been nothing more than just part of her plan to use you for her own gain

“i have no use for you anymore.” murderess told you coldly, “you're free to date someone else now.”

at first, you wanted to believe it was just a joke. a cruel joke, but a joke nonetheless, right? surely she wouldn't break up with you like this, would she?

“what happened to us? i-i thought things were going well–” “there is no us. there never was.”

looking into her eyes, you knew she was serious. or rather, you could see that she truly didn't care about you

“you're cruel…” you softly spoke, as the pain started to get to you, your voice raising. “you're cruel, you're heartless and you hurt everyone around you! and the worst part about it? i still love you, even though i know you never cared about me–!”

for a split moment, you wondered if you saw sharon flinch at your words. but surely, you were mistaken. after all, she is just a cold and heartless person, isn't she? why would your words change anything for her…?

*slams cup* ANOTHER XCX AU

So yeah Ace Attorney Xenoblade Chronicles X AU based on the first trilogy. Nothing as serious as my other AUs; just wanted to draw the gang in funny frilly lawyer outfits. Made Phoenix be Yelv because 1. it’s funny to imagine Yelv as a lawyer and 2. There’s some dialogue of Elma being Yelv’s mentor previously in the game.

Woohoo Sharon Effinger in the XCX Highschool AU!

Changed up her hairstyle because I wanted to go for a princess look than a refined bun. I did a modified version of the Japanese Hime cut, since a more wavy type hair is pretty popular.

I’ve always wanted to give the “blazer-over-shoulder” look to someone in the AU, and I’m so glad I gave it to Sharon. It really gives off the “rich girl” aura I wanted her to have. The sweater vest helps with a preppy vibe too.

Notes:

- 2nd year student (16-17 years old). Her friends are the same as the ones in XCX like Yolanda.

- Has beef with Irina, because Irina has dirt on her and vice versa. They’re kinda in a stalemate of potentially exposing each other but never actually going through with it. They more or less just bicker whenever see each other, but they eventually realize it was pretty much stupid judging each other without actually knowing what’s under the surface.

-ALSO has beef with H.B, but not as harsh as with Irina. They just try to show each other up. They do get in a fight, and Sharon absolutely beats him up. Her nails look like they can do damage ngl.

-I’m also likely keeping her parents alive in this AU because I like to think the whole plot with Dale Gibbon COULD happen later, and I rather not have anything too dark in a mostly simple AU. Though I could play around with Dale Gibbon being a creepy stalker or something.

-As for the thing Irina said, it’s true lol. Sharon also has one more cosmetic secret I may or may not draw out.

Translation notes:

Left - Sharon laughing while sitting down, Irina passing by saying “Are you still stuffing your chest?”, Sharon screams “SHUT UP!” in response as Irina mutters “L + Ratio” while sticking an “L” sign.
