Angst / Little Blurb On How I Think Ruan Mei Would Grieve

angst / little blurb on how i think ruan mei would grieve

as someone that’s studied thousands of walks of life and what makes them what they are, ruan mei is familiar with death.

creations pass on too early all the time. she is used to tallying them up and recording the failures before moving on.

had you never wormed your way into her schedule and endeared yourself to her, the news of your untimely passing would just be another tally.

but you smiled a lot. you approached her with an open mind and didn’t push or pull her in your direction. you weren’t put off by her disposition and eccentric fascinations.

ruan mei knows that she loved you.

but did you know? ruan mei logically tells herself that you must have.

there were lingering touches. she recognized the way her heart beat to the tune of your voice and the sound of your laugh. you didn’t look… unhappy.

when geniuses are faced with a problem, their hands itch to pen solutions.

so ruan mei grieves.

she connects herself with your other friends, which she would have deemed exhausting and frivolous prior to your passing. even if she’s seen as an awkward loose end that has your distraught friends raising their eyebrows.

when she misses the way you used to greet her, even when she was absorbed in work, she doesn’t work harder to distract herself immediately. instead she allows her eyes to sting for a few seconds before doing so.

no one is able to tell from the outside, but if she was asked why she was less productive than usual, she’d say something like "there is a factor missing from the experiment." she knows how to sidestep because it is easier than trying to explain her thought process.

ruan mei loved you. she will continue to do so, because she does not see it as an exercise in futility. the universe is ever-expanding and boundless. she sees it as a promise to share a dessert with you when you two cross paths again—whenever that may be.

that alternative ending where the tb stayed on the space station and became a researcher. how much angst do you think it can contain

hii! ( ˙︶˙)/

may I request a teru x reader fic where the reader is teru's childhood best friend who ate a mermaid scale like yashiro and now turns into a jellyfish whenever they touch water? if I may also add, the reader is more on the elegant side, and is kind of motherly and caring? how would teru react to finding out she was cursed? I hope this makes sense !

hello! sure, please enjoy!

Teru Minamoto x gn!reader

✧cursed childhood friend

✧fluff i guess?

-Teru does his best to keep you, his childhood friend, out of the affairs with ghosts. He isn't a big fan of your motherly side when it comes to ghosts, feeling you might sympathize with them a little too much and get yourself caught up with them.

-And that's exactly what you had gotten yourself into. Somehow you've eaten a mermaid scale and are now unable to touch water without being turned into a jellyfish! At first, you don't want Teru to know seeing as he is an exorcist.

-As it so happens, he found out quite quickly. It was a bit of a shock to him to say the least. You simply waved him off telling him that it'd be alright.

-It was a bit weird but he did tell you that he'd find a way to remove the 'terrible' curse from you. How dare an apparition take advantage of you like this? They'll surely be exorcised once he gets a hold of them.

-Poor you, trying to defend the apparition who had given it to you. Saying they had no ill intentions and had just wanted a friend! It's too bad that now you've been cursed by the mermaid scale but you swear that there were no ill intentions.

-Teru doesn't believe such a thing to be honest. He'll exorcise the spirit and find Mermaid for a way to rid you of this curse. Best case scenario, he'll be able to fix the curse and exorcise Mermaid. He'll see how it goes first but, he does have a plan.
