Word Count: 1.1k

notes: this is very self-indulgant and screams "i am single" but idc i love Rindou with all my heart djfash ! also tenjiku haitani supremacy

- Rindou plays games on his computer a lot and loves when you sit on his lap as he plays, especially if you’re facing him and hugging him as he does.
Rindou was in the middle of a match, his headset hooked in and his deep voice prattling on about in-game actions and catching up with his friends. “Dude I’m not responding to that, my girl is right here” and you were, sitting comfortably with your legs on either side of him and your head curled into his neck. You could fall asleep right here, you almost were as you took in the smell of your boyfriend and cuddled further into him, your arms wrapped around his neck. “Shion says hi” he says to you. He hadn’t noticed how sleepy you were until you let out a little “mm hi Madarame” in response. “She says hi,” Rin says before flipping his mic up, turning it off, and setting his controller down. “You wanna go lay down, baby?” He asks you, his voice soft and caring. You shake your head, squeezing him softly, and nuzzle into his neck even more. “‘m good, finish your game…” you say, softly yawning. He chuckles, softened by your cute sleepiness. “Nah I’d rather cuddle with my sleepy girl instead.” He flips his mic down to talk with his friends again, “Hey guys imma go, I’ll be on tomorrow or somethin’” saying his goodbyes and signing off. “Alright,” he sighs, standing and picking you up at the same time, your legs wrapped around him. “‘s nap time.” he plops you down onto the bed and finds his place beside you, the two of you cuddling close until sleep takes you both.
- He gets very excited to show you his new beats that he comes up with, playing them for you with a cute proud look on his face. even more so when you dance along
You’d never been the best dancer, always feeling too awkward to openly express the beat to a song when it came on. But something was different when it was just you and your boyfriend in his room listening to something he made. He’d texted you very excitedly to come over and listen to a new track he’d whipped up and of course, you came right away. Supporting his passions was important to you. “Okay okay so I was just fuckin around on the tables nothin' serious but I think I came up with something really good,” he said as he led you to his room, sitting you down on his bed as if he were about to break the biggest news. You got comfortable, sitting crisscross at the end of his bed, facing him. He was so cute when he was like this, his hair tied back in a small ponytail and his glasses sat on the tip of his nose. His excited smile to top it all off. He took a seat at his desk and spun around in the chair, opening up the recording he’d made earlier that day. “You just gotta listen im so proud of this shit babe I really think I got it this time,” You giggle at how adorable he’s being, earning you a side-eye. “Okay okay just play it already, silly!” Rindou lets out a sigh before pressing the space bar and leaning back to watch your reaction. The beat was good, really good. It reminded you of club music in the best way possible. You began to tap your knee with your eyes closed, getting a feel for the beat, before starting to move your body, standing up on his bed and dancing around as the music picked up pace. You looked down at him, the two of you sharing the biggest grin known to man. “This IS really fuckin good Rin, im so proud of you!” you say over the music, closing your eyes and getting really into it. He couldn’t help the blush that dusted his cheeks as he watched you.
- He’s very blushy and gets kinda flustered when you look all pretty for him. just for him.
“how do i look?” you ask as you come out of the bathroom, doing a little spin for him in the new dress he bought you. You had your makeup and hair done, looking ready and prepared for your date tonight. Rindou was sitting on your shared bed scrolling through his phone waiting for you to finish up, now finding his eyes racking over your figure and his face heating up at the sight. He stands, walking over to you and pulling you in close by the waist out of impulse. “f-fuck, you just” he struggles, his eyes struggling to hold contact with yours. “you’re so fuckin pretty how am I this lucky?” His heart felt like it was about to explode as he tried to hide his flushed face behind the blonde and blue hair that framed it. You could’ve mistaken his pupils for hearts the way he looked at you. You felt so loved in his presence. “Rinnn…” you whine, shoving against him, “you can’t just say stuff like thatt” you smile as you lean in to kiss him, your lips meeting his plush ones. It was soft and full of love and want and desire. God, he loved you so much. and he wanted every part of you so bad. He tried deepening the kiss but you pushed away from him, catching your breath. “Let's wait till we get back okay, baby?” He reluctantly nods, his forehead resting against yours. “I just love you so much I can’t help myself…”
- he’s only ever possessive of you when it comes to his brother, he really doesn’t want Ran to steal you away - he enjoys when the three of you can hang out normally though. when his brother isn’t being scary and intimidating
“She’s mine,” he says, pulling you closer into his chest and resting his chin on your shoulder, his brows furrowed and scowling at his older brother. Ran laughs, brushing stray hairs behind his ears, “what? can’t share for once?” He says teasingly. You knew Ran was never serious about his remarks towards you so they never made you uncomfortable. Still, though, he really knew how to get under Rindou’s skin. “No.” Rin lets out, a slight pout in his voice that melts your heart. He gives you a squeeze and you cuddle back into him, letting your eyes close with a soft smile on your face. “She wouldn’t want your lanky ass anyway,” Rindou finishes, receiving a silent nose laugh from you. Ran scoffs, crossing his arms, “Keep talkin so I can beat your ass in front of your girl.” He says with no real threat behind his words. “So you admit it? she’s my girl.” hook line and sinker. You open your eyes just in time to see Ran roll his own before plopping on the other side of the couch, his ponytail swaying as he does. “Just turn the damn movie on, Rin. Damn always gotta be startin shit” he grumbles, and you let out a giggle, clinging onto Rindou’s tattooed arm

Dorm Outfit Wars continues... Octavinelle

Yuu can sense the danger before she even reaches the front door to Ramshackle. With a sigh, she pushes open the door, opens her arms, and accepts her fate. Yuu's quickly picked up and rushed towards the hall of mirrors, the only clue she gets to who has her is the familiar high pitched laughter. Floyd kicked open the door to the Lounge and gently set Yuu down before joining Jade and Azul. Azul tries to make the pictures look professional, but Yuu and Floyd quickly squish that idea. She ends up taking selfies with each of them, although she gets a photo of her between the tweels.
"Looks like the Lounge might be under new management."
Floyd: Now we need more pics of you.
Yuu: Nope

yahoo~ can i get a uh big m narumi shamelessly pining over the second division's vice captain? 🤤 like i think it would be funny to read narumi repeatedly asking reader to just transfer to the first during meetings so he'll be able to admire her better and at the same time he's like dissing jura everytime he does it would be funny i think
Summary: With the nation's safety at risk, joint trainings are expected across Divisions. Narumi Gen, as the Captain of the First Divison, aims to make his very own division grow in strength—only by pestering you, the Second Division's Vice Captain, to transfer to their Division, of course.
Author's Reply: We have very little info about Jura's personality (except her being kinda temperal, I think?) so it was a bit of a struggle writing her interactions with Narumi 😭
Author's Note: I'll be taking a short break from writing oneshots so I can continue writing my Brains to Brawn Narumi series—but requests are open! I'll get back to them after writing Chapter 3.
Requests and messages are welcome on my ask box! Please view my navigation too ♡ Likes, reblogs, and comments are appreciated.

For the third round of joint exercises, the Second Division is expected to host Officers from both the First and Third Division. As Jura Igarashi's second-in-command, you are tasked to oversee the training held in your base, taking into consideration the fighting styles honed by each participating division. That said, the meeting for the third round of joint exercises was supposed to start roughly 30 minutes ago, if it weren't for the commotion just outside the conference room.
"Let me in! I SAID LET ME IN! Do you not know who I am?!"
Everyone who can hear the commotion sighed, knowing all too well whose voice and antics it belonged to.
"S-sir, protocol says that only verified attendees have permission to enter—"
"Are you saying I'm not allowed inside?!? I'm the Captain of THE strongest Division, y'know! Hasegawa, my Vice Captain, is inside! It doesn't make sense that his Captain is off-limits here!!"
You looked at Hasegawa, who was seating across from you; raising your eyebrow as if to silently say, 'What are you gonna do with him?'
He only shook his head in defeat, knowing that Captain Narumi won't stop 'til he gets what he wants. Sighing, you stood up, deciding to deal with this yourself.
Narumi was still making a fuss by the time you opened the door, the two officers guarding it moving to the side to give you a proper salute. He was already on his knees, still muttering his pleas, unaware that you had stepped out to deal with him.
Sighing again, you knelt to meet his level. Waving your hand in front of him, you said, "...Captain, are you still there? If you have something you oh-so-desperately want to share in the conference, you're more than welcome to join us." albeit, against everyone's wishes.
His head snapped to meet your eyes so fast you thought it would detach from his neck. Looking at you with wide, bloodshot eyes, his mood significantly improved. Ah, is he seeing his savior, an angel sent from above?
"Under one condition, though," you continued, "Please don't make any ruckus inside. No gaming either. Speak only when you're permitted to by Captain Igarashi. Would that suffice?"
He nodded eagerly, no words forming in his mouth; he already thinks he's ascending to heaven just by seeing you. Or so he thought.
Aside from being denied the privilege to sit across you by Hasegawa, he can't stand hearing these people talk nonsense! He was expecting you to take charge of the meeting, why haven't you spoken a word?! His ears are at high alert every second that passes in case you speak—waiting and waiting to hear your voice once more. And why is Hoshina representing their division again?! He's starting to get agitated, leg bouncing impatiently and a finger continuously tapping the table, gradually getting louder.
Beside you is Captain Igarashi, who was slowly getting triggered by the noise. This didn't went unnoticed by you, of course, and she was already getting up to give Narumi an earful before you can even stop her.
"Oi, you're being a distraction! Stop doing that, you're not a kid!"
Naturally, the First Division Captain is triggered by this. "Are you calling me a kid, meathead?! You lashed out on me first, who's a kid now, huh?!? Sit your ass back down, you should be grateful to be graced by my presence!"
"And your presence is unwelcomed in our base! I'll report you for trespassing!"
"Oh yeah, oh yeah? I'll have your entire Division begging on my knees after hearing our very own proposal! Did'ya think I came here unprepared?!"
"My division, begging? Not in a million years! The second division yields to no one!"
You pulled your Captain by her sleeve to sit her back down and cleared your throat. "Ahem. I apologize for the commotion—please continue from where we left off."
Hoshina playfully grinned, "No need for that! I was able to cover everythin' Captain Ashiro asked me to relay to ya. You have more pressing matters to attend to, yes? Such as that twerp who's been starin' intently into yer head for the past hour, fellow Vice Cap."
Ah, yes—Captain Narumi did nothing but stare at you for the whole duration of the meeting. You were acting indifferent, but you just wanted to see how long he'll keep his word and act accordingly. "Very well, then. Captain Narumi, you mentioned a proposal from your division. Shall we hear it out?"
Oh. You were finally addressing him. He's beyond ecstatic; his anger is gone in an instant.
He uncharacteristically sat up properly, a mix of seriousness and smugness exuding from him. Taking this opportunity, he made eye contact with you, not once diverting his eyes elsewhere. (Hasegawa, however, seems uneasy. Was he not informed of any proposals?)
"That's right. It goes without saying, but the First Division is an elite division—the strongest of our forces. The stronger our forces get, the stronger I myself become. As Japan's Strongest Anti-Kaiju Combatant, I'm in need of an even greater source of strength..."
It all happened too fast — In a blink of an eye, Captain Narumi was now kneeling before you. Taking both of your hands in his, he declared, "YOU HAVE TO MOVE TO MY DIVISION! I promise I'll give you perks better than this meathead Captain of yours gives you, I'll grow incredibly stronger with you around and you don't have to worry about working overtime because we can just play BS5 together—"
SMACK!
You hear Hoshina laughing so hard he can't breathe as you looked over to see Hasegawa hitting Narumi's head with a rather thick stack of papers, lifting him as if he's a cat. "That's enough. I aplogize for his brash behavior, Vice Captain."
"NO! Hasegawa, put me down! I'm not done saying my proposal! Listen to me, I'm your Captain!!"
Jura, who was watching this transpire with controlled anger, got fueled up again. "Two-toned head! The next time you dare step in our turf, You'll be seeing your very own wanted posters!!"
This isn't supposed to be anything new to you, definitely not — it's not the first time Captain Narumi asked you to transfer to the First. But you were taken aback with how fast everything happened, you were basically unable to speak.
"Uh... I appreciate the offer?"
Hasegawa dropped Narumi back in his seat, appearing like a small dejected kitty. His vice captain offered an apology once more, asking to proceed with the meeting.
It didn't go unnoticed to you how unusually down Narumi is afterwards, though. Was he really upset this time?
After wrapping up the meeting, you stayed behind to organize the reports given by each division. A stack of paper slipped from your grasp, and before you can even pick them up, a figure gathered them surprisingly fast.
"Captain... Narumi? Shouldn't you go back to your base?"
He spoke softly, "Did you keep it? The Yamazon boxes I sent your way. It's full of stuff you might like."
Ah. The last time he asked you to transfer, he barged in with a handful of Yamazon boxes, full of things that you fancy. Recalling the contents, it was packed with new editions of books you loved reading, cute blind boxes figurines, an entire collection of hundred pieces jigsaw puzzle, raccoon plushies, and a lot more. He follows you on social media, and you always repost whatever catches your interests.
"Of course I did! I bought myself a brand new bookshelf to keep the books and store the puzzles' boxes, and decorated them using the figurines from the blind boxes and raccoon plushies!" You smiled, sharing what you did with each of them. Pulling out your phone, you showed him a photo of your cute little arrangement. "Here, I was satisfied with the outcome, it's my favorite part of my office."
He was staring intently at the photo, taking time to admire your arrangement. The little raccoon keychain dangling from your phone didn't escape his attention either. "I never got to formally give you my gratitude, but please know I'm beyond thankful for these."
Narumi has been looking at your phone for a solid few minutes now, concern taking over your features.
"Captain?"
He gently held the wrist holding your phone and looked at you, "I really, really like you a lot, y'know."
You feel your heart skip a beat, face suddenly warming. He's really full of surprises, the softness and sincerity in his tone evident.
"I mean it when I said I need you in the First Division. Think it over, please?"
Were you imagining things, or has he really been this close to you since a moment ago? Despite how a bit flustered you've been, you refused to get swayed by anything, as you already have a duty you swore to uphold.
"Captain Narumi, please listen—it's not that I'm against your division, it's just that I already have a duty I've yet to fulfill here. Now isn't the right time for me to leave this place." you said with determination.
He pouted, understanding that being with you isn't gonna be as easy he as he wants. He was about to speak when you held up your phone in his face again.
"However, I can compromise. If you want to see me that badly, save your number here and give me a call whenever, wherever." you said, turning your face away from him.
Hearing this instantly lit him up, wasting no time grabbing your phone and entering his number. He dramatically cleared his throat, newfound determination firing him up. "Fine, I'll accept. But just so you know! I'm not giving up on your transfer." he said, smugly crossing his arms.
Giving him one last smile before you part ways, you point at his phone and said, "I'll be looking forward to working with you in the future, Captain Narumi."
Curiously, he opened his contacts to see your number saved, followed with a "Future Right-hand Woman" next to your name.
Oh, he's definitely gonna mess with Jura harder than before.
Soshiro Hoshina
✨Crushing On You ✨

Headcanon time!
↳ I strongly, STRONGLY believe that Hoshina would be the biggest spazz with his crush on you. I mean just simping heavy! Like, the giggling and kicking his feet type at the sight or even thought of you vibes.
↳ Imagine his cheeks all dusty pink, with that goofy, fangy toothed smile when he talks to you.
↳I think maybe initially he'd tried to hide it, and the attempt would last a good like four seconds before his attraction instantly shows on his face.
↳I'm picturing the wide eyed, lips slightly parted look. Add in the anime wind and roses background for special effect.
↳He'd figure out all these different excuses to interact with you.
↳Because he's a cutie pie when he's not activated in his menace mode, he'll try and make you laugh and smile whenever he can!
↳Would be through the roof happy if you ever came to watch him train, or better yet, ask him to help you train.
↳At one point his attraction to you would be so obvious that even you can't help but notice.
↳I feel like his mood would be genuinely a bit down if he doesn't get a chance to see you at some point each day (this is when he's like deep in his crush on you).
↳I can see him wanting to give you all kinds of tips and will compliment you on whatever you do well as a defense force officer.
↳His entire face would turn tomato red if you ever complimented literally anything about him (personality, looks, outfit, anything will have him shook). He'd definitely try to play off his reaction but it wouldn't work.
↳Now taking a second to mention his menace activation mode. Hoshina would go absolutely CRAZY if you got hurt during a fight. Like going wild, tearin' them kaiju beasts up while the other lower rank officers get you to a hospital. If someone couldn't tell his feelings for you before then this kind of scenario would be the revelation.

A/N🧚🏾♀️: Ok so I watched Kaiju No. 8 last night and like...why ain't nobody tell me this man Hoshina is FINE😩😍?!?! Like dayum every time he got screen time all I could say was GYAT!
I think Rindou can skateboard🛹
He would be really good at all those tricks you see other skateboarders do but better. Rindou always does it better. He’s the type to take almost anything as a challenge and will keep practicing til he’s perfect and once he gets something down, his beautiful smile will never fade as he has his fun.☀️
On a nice day, he likes to go to the skatepark with Ran, bringing his bluetooth speaker to play his favorite songs which other skaters there also love to vibe to (Rindou has the best playlist) and brings his stash of pre-rolls in his bag to smoke later because who doesn’t like a chill sesh after having a fun time?🍃 Oh! And can’t forget the alcohol in the cooler
What really makes Rindou’s day though is when you come around to see him. He’s a weak man when it comes to you (he won’t admit that) so I feel like if he spotted you mid board trick, he’d almost bust his ass but successfully save himself to not look silly and act like that didn’t happen😭
When he starts teaching you how to skateboard, you can’t even focus on what the hell he’s telling you when his hands are holding your waist keeping you balanced. And god feeling his muscles as you hold onto him drives you crazy😵💫
When you try to skate in a straight line without Rindou’s help, you get the hang of it a bit and he cheers you on saying you got it. (You’re going at the speed of a turtle🐢). He chuckles seeing you panic when you start leaning too much towards the left after you tried to give yourself more speed. Your body goes into a frozen mode so all you’re doing is quietly screaming like “aaaaaaaah” unable to rebalance yourself after Rindou tells you to shift your weight.
He catches up to you quickly, since you didn’t really go that far, and holds onto you. Your arms instantly fly around his neck, holding onto him tightly as you giggle out a nervous sigh and he asks if you’re okay, clearly wanting to laugh at your failed attempt at speeding up on his board.
“Chill sweetheart, y’know I won’t let anything happen to you as long as I’m here right?”
Yandere!Monster x Reader [Asylum Spider]
A/N: This feels a little bit strange to post. It's an older OC (the drawing I used is like 3 years old) I had for a horror manga. I thought it would make a good yandere if you're into actual monsters. And the atmosphere is a lot like an indie horror rpg. :)
You wake up in a damp, dark room with no recollection of how you ended up here. Hovering above you is a repugnant beast whose appearance terrifies you into silence. Yet it doesn’t attack you. Quite the opposite, it seems to want to guide you outside. You must escape quickly, as whatever lurks above causes the creature to squirm in fear. Yet as departure approaches, a desire blooms within its ancient heart: must you really leave it behind?
TW: Monsters, horror, implied violence/abuse
![Yandere!Monster X Reader [Asylum Spider]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/49961084907cde2da76daf1d4e356d2e/6bc163801c326d4e-0b/s500x750/f62fc506b76062670a04d877c3fe4b408c5765fb.jpg)
Your vision is blurry and your head is throbbing with a harrowing, unbearable headache. You've been awakened from your unexplainable slumber by cold yet burning drops of liquid hitting your cheek at irregular intervals. You squint and try to focus on whatever lies before you. Slowly, the object becomes sharper and your eyes widen in terror. Drooling above you, a monstrosity. It looks almost human. Sharp, curved teeth are grotesquely gawking their way out. The skin is discolored, similar to the blueish tint of someone struck by hypothermia. The creature seems to be wearing a strange sort of straight jacket, tightly securing the arms and ending in a shredded rag, dangling between the skinny, crooked legs. Yet the most disturbing feature are the massive arthropod appendages that fan out from behind, suspending the abomination above ground.
The ridiculous, offensive sight drains the blood from your face and you hold your breath. You wait for the final blow that never arrives. It lowers its head and inhales deeply, trying to detect if you're still alive. Satisfied with the answer, it scurries aside and leaves you enough space to lift yourself up. The wide smile remains plastered on its face, making it look like a deformed mannequin. With nothing left to lose, you decide to risk it. "Can you talk?" you mumble, unsure about the potential response. It shakes its head in denial and you raise your eyebrows. So it can understand human speech.
You stand up and look around. There's a pungent smell irritating your nostrils, and large pipes slither their way over walls and ceilings in a maze of rusted metal. The floor is flooded and your ankles are sunken in murky water. Above the only door hangs an old plaque, eaten by mold and age. "W∎ter & Drain∎∎∎: Pro∎∎rty of ∎∎∎∎∎ Asylum". Ah. This must be the sewers, then. How did you even end up in the sewers of an asylum? Maybe someone upstairs can provide you with answers. You turn to the creature that has been obediently observing you.
"Can you take me to the main building?"
The humanoid spider screeches and trashes its appendages across the water. You jolt and step back instinctively. Is it mad? Have you upset it somehow? No, if anything, it looks afraid. You stare at its bizarre convulsions until it occurs to you the movements aren't quite as erratic as you assumed. It is drawing something using a swamped patch of ground.
Don't let find you Get out
You're choking with dread again. The ominous words send a cold chill down your spine and you shiver, helpless.
"How am I supposed to get out if I don't know where the exit is?" You demand with your last ounce of energy.
It wobbles its way towards the door, and stops to face you expectantly. Is it offering to guide you? You're not quite sure whether to trust the ghoulish creature, but the rotting room is filling you with panic.
Anything is better than being alone here.
What a suffocating atmosphere. The corridors are tall, narrow and black. You can barely discern anything around you and the only sounds are the ghastly echoes of the metal creaking and bending from the water pressure. That, and your uncertain steps across the muddy flow. You glance at the creature. Its eyes are covered by a leather blindfold, so the darkness mustn't be an impediment for it. Then again, how can it tell its way within this colossal labyrinth?
"Is this where you live?" you whisper, trying to make conversation. You need something to distract you from your pounding heart.
It nods hesitantly.
Your foot hits something and you instinctively attempt to kick it off. Perhaps some algae that begun developing in this forgotten grave. It seems to have wrapped around your ankle, so you bend down to remove it with your hands. It's a soaked sheet of paper. The ink has mostly diffused into the page, but you can still read some of the larger headlines. "Dozens have disappeared. The mystery of the abandoned Asylum, believed to be haunted by the countless victims of horrid experimentation". Next to the title is a photograph too smudged to make out.
You stop in your tracks, focused on the blurry letters. The monster patiently waits for you. Is it something to be asked? You gaze up at its features, trying to take in the details. You take a deep breath in and open your mouth.
"Did they...um...do this to you upstairs?"
It seems to ponder your question with the same unfaltering grin that now feels painfully forced. Finally, it nods.
What a strange little creature you are. He returns your curious stare. Now that he thinks about it, you must be the very first person to follow him. When was the last time he spoke to another living creature? He can't remember. The others would panic beyond control at the mere sight of him, blindly running away and getting lost in the sewers. Later he'd find their bodies quickly decomposing under the running water, and he'd dispose of them outside. No one deserves to die here. The really unfortunate ones made it upstairs, into the asylum. He'd rather not brood over it.
Yet here you are, asking questions and walking alongside him as if you were on a stroll. He doubts he's gotten less hideous over the years. Then again, he can't see to confirm. Just as he can't see you. Despite his lack of vision, he is overwhelmed by the feeling that you're a beautiful being. You must be. And thankfully, you won't have to worry yourself with any of the horrors lurking these cursed grounds for much longer. He'll help you escape.
Then he'll be alone once more. It shouldn't bother him this much, it's always been like this. But meeting you has reminded him just how much he missed the presence of another human, how dearly he longed for a kind voice. Is it selfish to fear isolation?
"Oh! You're right, I can see a gate from here." You exclaim in gratitude.
You sprint towards the rusty bars and feel a cool breeze against your skin. This must lead outside. The creature has kept its word. Soon enough all of this will be a nightmare of the past.
"I-"
The monster seems to be making an effort to speak, but all that comes out is a dissonant croak. You're confused and he can sense it.
Must you really leave him behind? He needs to let you know that he'd like to stay with you, but his throat is contracting pointlessly and there's nothing he can use as a writing surface. What is there to do? His chest is tightening with the frenzied desire to keep you with him forever.
Please don't leave him.
