Vet!Yuu: Lions Get The Majority Of Their Water From Prey But Did You Know That They Eat Tsamma Melon?

ik you’ve written abt megumi a lot lately but i’m in deep right now lol😭 can i request a childhood friends to lovers with him and the readers met everyone that he knows except Itadori and Nobara? i feel like meeting them with him would be very chaotic and possibly embarrassing for him

childhood friends to lovers >>>

you're probably the only friend he made in grade school, unless you count tsumiki. honestly megumi isn't sure why you insisted on hanging out with him during recess or lunch, seeing his reputation was a little... well, you know how it was.

at first he's probably a little annoyed that you keep insisting on hanging around him, but eventually you're just a constant in his life. he wouldn't admit it, but on days that you stayed home sick or had an appointment during school hours, he was a little bit lonely.

(tsumiki teases him constantly and is always asking about you)

it's not until you admit a secret to him that he decides you probably are his best friend, and will finally admit it out loud. he'll never forget the nervous way you told him that you could see monsters, afraid that he would laugh and make fun of you for such a stupid thing. you're surprised when he sits down with you and tells you all about curses and jujutsu sorcerers and the annoying man that had essentially adopted him to strengthen his abilities in the hopes that one day he could kill those monsters.

(you fall a little in love with him that day in the fifth grade when he tells you that you don't have to be afraid of the monsters bc he'll always be around to scare 'em off)

you remain attached at the hip all through middle school, learning everything about each other during study halls and late nights staying up on the phone together. you talk to him about your cursed technique, and he spends hours with you trying to better understand it's capabilities. neither one of you have any other friends, and if you thought enough about it you'd probably realize you're social rejects. but neither of you care. you had each other and you understood each other, and that was all that really mattered.

the summer before high school, megumi tells you that it was time for him to go to a different school, where he could learn more about curses and follow the path to being a proper sorcerer. you tell him you're happy for him, that you're proud of him, and you know he'll succeed in anything he puts his mind too. he's blushing. you're holding back tears.

you don't want him to go. you couldn't possibly ask him to stay.

and then one day, just before the school year started, a weird man in dark sunglasses and the whitest hair you've ever seen approaches you while you're waiting for your order to be called at your favorite cafe.

he tells you who he is, and that megumi had spent many, many hours talking about you and your abilities. he hands you a brochure, and tells you that he wants you to enroll at jujutsu tech. at first you refuse, you're too afraid of the monsters, and you came from a family of non-curse users. you'd never even told them about your abilities. gojo tells you that he'd already spoken to your parents, and he'd convinced them to let you go to a private school under the guise of your outstanding academic record.

with that, you couldn't really refuse.

megumi is ecstatic when gojo brings you to the school. gojo doesn't think he's ever seen him so happy, and he's surprised when he hugs you tightly, overcome with joy that he didn't have to be apart from his favorite person.

you're both blushing.

in the two weeks before school starts, you help each other unpack and decorate in your little dorms, which are just down the hall from each other. you admit to megumi that you're not sure if this was the right path for you, and he tells you that no matter any anxiety you might have about your new life, he'd be there to help every step of the way.

your heart skips a beat when you look up into his azure eyes, knowing that he meant every word he said. are you supposed to feel this warm and fluttery for your friends? you're not sure, but you enjoy the feeling of butterflies in your stomach, so you don't think too much about it.

you spend almost every waking minute together before school starts. it's the best time of your life. you don't think you've ever been happier. megumi feels the same. he doesn't think he's ever laughed so much in his life spending all this extra time with you that he didn't get as much when you were still growing up.

the night that he's sent to find the cursed object that was sukuna's finger, you had been practicing applying your cursed technique with a teacher back at the school. apparently the blonde man with the spotted tie was the only one patient enough to train with you from the afternoon to well into the evening.

you aren't aware of the events that transpired with one itadori yuji. you had far too much catching up to do. megumi briefly mentions another student joining our class, but he doesn't give away too much information. he'd rather hear about how far you're coming along with your technique, anyways.

a few days later, your mentor Nanami tells you there will be yet another student joining you, a young girl this time. you're excited at the prospect of making new friends.

megumi dreads it.

gojo had already mentioned you (more specifically, he'd said "just wait until you meet (y/n)! I'm sure megumi will be happy to introduce you to his girl!") to the three of them on the last assignment they'd taken together. yuji and nobara had squealed at the prospect of their grouchy classmate having a girl. megumi doesn't know how yet, but he knows he'll have to get gojo back for that one.

it's not until a few days after nobara has joined the team that you finally have some free time away from training, and you suggest to megumi that all four of you should have some bonding time.

"we're classmates. we bond enough" he'd replied gruffly, going back to the book he was reading. but you gave him your best puppy dog eyes and insisted that you must meet them.

"you think they won't like me?" you ask when he continues to shoot the idea down.

megumi huffs, finally dropping the book to his lap and staring blankly at you. you scooted closer to him on his bed.

"you're not embarrassed of me are you, megumi?" you tease, grinning ear to ear.

"course not" he muttered, turning away in hopes that you wouldn't see his blushing face.

you can still see the red tips of his ears, and that feeling of butterflies that you'd been experiencing lately returned. you tease him for his blushing. he gives in with a defeated sigh, throwing his head back against the wall as he agrees to a lunch with your new classmates.

you clap your hands, and lean forward to press your lips to his cheek without thinking. he thinks his heart might burst he could die right there. he gets up and leaves the room hastily under the excuse of finding nobara and yuji.

when the lunch finally rolls around, he contemplates pretending to be sick so he didn't have to go. he couldn't possibly handle yuji and nobara teasing him- which was bound to happen.

but you're so excited, you'd spent all morning with him trying to find the right thing to wear- despite megumi repeatedly telling you that anything was fine, and he was just going to wear his uniform.

"well that's different, you look good in your uniform. it makes me look boxy" you told him, before grabbing a different hanger and heading back into the bathroom to change for the hundredth time.

he feels hot suddenly at the compliment. you continued to fluster him, and it was starting to drive him crazy.

when you emerge in a new outfit, megumi swallows his fear (and maybe his pride too).

"that looks good," he tells you as you look over the outfit in your mirror. "you look, uh, pretty"

you grin, finding it adorable how much he struggled to compliment you. you decide this is the one, and beckon him to come with you to meet your new friends at the gate.

"they're loud," megumi warns. "and... annoying" he adds.

"I don't mind," you shrug, not thinking twice about his cautious words. "I think it'll be good for us to branch out a little"

megumi's hands are closed in tight, clammy fists at his sides.

"i guess" he mumbles. he's never felt so much anxiety in his life before.

(y/n) reaches a hand out to his, gently prodding open his fist and linking her fingers through his. he stops in his tracks, and she turns to look at him, puzzled.

"what's been bothering you?" she asks, worried.

megumi looks anywhere but at her face. all he can think about was how soft the palm of her hand is, and how it seemed to fit perfectly in his. his heart's racing. his mind is buzzing with thoughts of her. but even with her standing in front of him, he can't bring himself to look at her.

"it's stupid"

(y/n) shrugs her shoulders. "so?"

its a simple response, but it seems to do the trick to get herself catapulted over his high, high walls, because he gives in and fucking admits it already.

"they kinda know that i... like you," he says, eyes dropping to hers to watch her reaction closely. "like you like... more than friends like each other"

her mouth forms a little 'o' and her cheeks and quickly turning a rosy shade of pink. she processes the words carefully, before her lips break into a smile, and she squeezes the hand she's holding.

"megumi," she says warmly. "why does that bother you so much? you don't want them to know?"

he sputters out nonsense.

"well I didn't need them going and- and blabbing off to you! I wanted to be the one to tell you first"

(y/n) chuckles, and drags him along with her so they can continue their walk to the gates.

"I already knew," she shrugged casually.

megumi thinks he's going to die.

"but I appreciate you finally telling me," she adds. "and for what it's worth, I like you too"

he wants to cuss her out for making him so anxious over nothing, but he's so elated that he bites his tongue.

(for now, later that night he'll chew you out for not telling him sooner. you'll giggle and kiss his nose and tell him you like watching him squirm. he'll pull you against him and affectionately call you the devil)

and for what it's worth, megumi wasn't wrong. as soon as your new classmates see your joined hands and megumi's blushing face, it is open season. you want to make them calm down for your sweet, shy boy's sake, but you can't help but giggle along while they childishly, relentlessly tease him for having a soft spot.

the soft spot grows larger as he ducks his face into the collar of his shirt. his hand squeezes yours a little tighter.

silently, you tell him,

any anxiety you might have, I'll be here every step of the way. ___

got a lil carried away. i love megumi he makes me soft :')

A bunch of genshin baseball drawings o3o

The last sentence broke my heart into tiny pieces 😭it was so sad that I accidentally came up with the idea that God!Dear little by little remembers her life as the Creator of Teivat. Imagine how happy Cyres and Cryas will be.

They'd be so happy! While you're remembering your past, piece by piece, you idly recall a time when your ever-calm Cyres had thrown a fit after Cryas had overhauled the art culture on his favorite world, and had thrown a black hole into the middle of Cryas' nearly finished project in response.

-

"That was for Mother, you dick!"

"Well, I was going to take Mother to tour that museum planet you decided to let become some rich asshole's summer home."

"Oh stuff it, like those two equal the same thing."

"Do you know how rare—"

"Boys." You had interrupted, hands on your hips as you stared down your children. They were hardly an eon old, but this was getting out of hand. "What did I say about fighting in the halls?"

Both winced and immediately deflated. "Sorry, Mother..."

...

"HEY! I was going to bring that to Mother!" Cryas reached out for the plate of food, held back only by Cyres' outstretched arm to his face.

Cyres' glare could wither life itself. "Go away, you know damn well this was my idea."

"That's exactly why I—"

"Boys." You interrupted, the words bubbling out unbidden the moment you came upon their little display. "What did I say about fighting in the halls?" What had you said? You couldn't recall making any rules on that— or had you?

Both winced on reflex. Then it dawned on them.

Their smiles could light up the farthest reaches of the void. "Sorry, Mother."

Cheka: MC? Can you be my consort when we grow up?

Kid MC: What's a consort?

Cheka: *giggles* A king's partner for life!

Kid MC: Hmm... *squinting their eyes a little* Nope. I'm not seeing you in my future. No offense.

Epel: *gobsmacked*

Rook: Oh mon Dieu—

Cheka: ...

Cheka: *smiles* Okay. *but cries a few seconds later*

Vil: ...

Kid MC: ...

Vil: Where did you get that attitude from?

Kid MC: *points at him*

Vil: *sigh* Guess I can't scold you for that.

Rook: Oh my, Roi du Poison. You're becoming this child's second dad.

Epel: It's scary.

Vil: What's that, Epel?

Epel: Nothing!

Kid MC: Sir Leona? Why are you buying presents for me?

Leona: Because you rejected Cheka.

Kid MC: I don't understand.

Leona: That kid won't be bothering me for a while so I want to thank you for that.

Kid MC: You don't really like children, no?

Leona: Heh. Maybe you're an exception.

Leona: What do you like?

Kid MC: Hmm... I want that toolbox, that whole fridge of ice cream, and—

Leona: Hey. Isn't that a lot?

Kid MC: You're buying.

Leona: ...

Leona: Fine. *pulls out his card* Do you want me to buy the whole store?

Kid MC: If you insist.

Leona: This little— *chuckles*

Kid MC: Are you feeling better now, Dad?

Malleus: Yes. *after being sick for a week*

Lilia: I never expected your dad to get sick just from overthinking. *chuckles*

Malleus: *frowns a little* You don't understand, Lilia. Won't you feel the same if someone tries to court Silver?

Lilia: No? *chuckles* Silver is a human and seeing him get married will be my greatest joy.

Malleus: ...

Kid MC: What's your greatest joy for me, Dad?

Malleus: ...

Malleus: To see you as the happiest human alive.

Kid MC: *giggles* Dad, think of another. I'm already the happiest human alive after getting to meet Dad.

Malleus: *on the verge of crying*

Lilia: Malleus, please. You're affecting the seasons.

"I Used to Love You Actually..."

<- Brothers

(Thanks for this ask @r-u-n-e! It was so fun to write!)

It was just another day at the Demon Lord's castle. Just another tea party. And maybe it was because Luke wasn't there, that the topic of discussion grew that heavy.

Simeon was talking about a book he'd read recently. "It truly speaks of sadness of another kind. Not borne of death, war or illness. Simply of slowly losing love for something you once adored."

"Indeed. Falling out of a love is such a painful affair." Diavolo shakes his head, "My heart aches at the thought of it."

"Perhaps being the receipent is harder. Imagine waking up next to someone you've loved and known all this time, only for them to open their eyes and see that it's not the same." Solomon glanced at you. "They no longer look at you the way they used to."

"That would be terrible thing to see indeed." Barbatos poured some more tea into your half-empty cup. "Have you ever had such an experience, MC? To have loved and lost love for someone?"

You sipped from your cup slowly. There was no point in hiding it now anyway. You closed your eyes and answered, "Funny you should ask, because it was one of you, actually."

Who is it?

The silent question hung around in the air. Everyone had stopped moving, with their undivided gaze turned towards you.

It was You.

You simply opened your eyes, to look directly at the one you meant, smiling coyly. He understood.

You cast your eyes downwards and finish your tea accompanied by uncomfortable laughter and lingering pauses. You pretend to glance at the clock and get up to leave.

"It's getting late. I should go before the brothers come running. Thank you for having me."

Solomon

"Come, I'll walk you home." It's not an offer you are allowed to refuse. When have you ever been able to change his mind once it's made up?

"Sure." You accept. He slows himself down to keep pace with you, as he always does. He usually fills the silence with his many stories and questions. Tonight he has ony one.

"Have you ever felt the loss of something you never knew you had?", he stopped in his tracks abruptly. You looked up at him to see his pained smile. "It's not a very nice feeling."

"Not quite. But.." You fidgeted with something around your neck. You held up a vial shaped locket attached to your necklace. Something blue glistened inside.

"...I know what's like to almost lose myself to someone who didn't need me. I'd argue that's just as bad." You detached the vial from your necklace and handed it to him.

Solomon's eyes grew wide in disbelief. It was a face you rarely saw on him. "This is ..this is Liquid Time."

"Yes. The very same one which cursed you with immortality." You smiled, "I was planning to consume it. To keep you company."

"You were considering turning immortal...for me?" He clutched the vial as if it was your hand. With his head spinning in desperation , he stumbled towards you.

"I fell in love with you during my apprenticeship. You were always so kind, whimsical and full of knowledge. I wanted to spend a little more time with you. Not much just a millenia or two." You chuckled. Solomon's face flushed red.

"But I realised how foolish it was. I virtually know nothing about your past. You never trusted me enough to tell me. And besides you already have Asmo, Barbatos and now Simeon and more. Why did I think you're a little lonely just like me?" Your eyes burned and watered.

"Don't hold yourself accountable. I fell in and out of love with you, all on my own. I'm sorry. You can take that vial as my apology." You started walking ahead alone.

"Then would you drink it now if I asked you to?" Solomon held your wrist. "Would anything convince you to drink this?"

"If you really needed me in your life, I'd do it in a heartbeat." How cruel of him to ask such a thing. Love lingers long past it's death. Didn't he know that?

"Good. Because I don't know how to live a life without you anymore." He opened the vial and poured the liquid into his mouth.

Before you could make sense of what he was doing, you were pushed against a nearby tree, his mouth crashing against yours.

You tasted it all, the soft tremor of his lips and the icy cold Liquid Time flowing down your throat. He held onto you for dear life as he made you drink every last drop of it. "What a strange confession of love, Solomon."

Simeon

"I'd like to walk you home, MC." Simeon is already waiting for you at the door. He waits for you to finish putting on your coat, smiles as you make your way outside.

"The tea and sweets were most remarkable today, wouldn't you agree?" He initiated.

The silence between you two was usually comfortable, but not today. Today it was stifling, choking the sanity out of him.

"Indeed it was. Barbatos always outdoes himself." You agreed.

You saw him fidget with his gloves and fix his cape five times in a row and make it more crooked. Maybe you shouldn't have told him.

But there was no going back to unsay it. "Simeon." You called out and turned around. He looked so elated as he said, "Yes, MC?"

"I doubt I need to explain why I fell in love with you. Noone has been more gentle or sweet with me than you." You went ahead and straightened out his cape.

His smile disappeared, his eyes turning solemn. Your heart almost broke again seeing him like that. "But I'm a human, afterall. I couldn't possibly allow myself."

Did you even need to explain further? How Lilith's love for a human lead to her fall, and her demise? Surely, Simeon knew it better than you. He lived through it.

"Lilith's end was much happier than you think." It's as if he read your mind. "She died as a human, holding hands with the human she loved, surrounded by her children and grandchildren."

Simeon's smile was back. "Isn't that the most peaceful end one can have? I'd be the most blessed man alive, if my life ended like that. With you holding my hand."

You were still processing what he said when he took your hand and pulled you closer to him. He pressed a gentle kiss on your lips.

"Meeting someone like you was a miracle. And if by the same miracle, I turn into a human someday...I swear by my heart, I will make you fall for me again."

Diavolo

"I'd like you to stay over today, MC. There are certain things I need to discuss with you." Diavolo placed a hand over yours even as you were about to stand up. How typical of you, Diavolo.

Solomon and Simeon were bid goodbye and Barbatos refused your help when you tried cleaning up the plates and cups. He merely shook his head and pointed upwards, "Young Master is waiting for you, MC."

Diavolo stood at the top of the stairway, wordlessly extending his open hand for you to take. He smiled with eyes full of melancholy. You'd seen it so many times before.

"Let's take a walk around the castle, shall we? I'm sure there are things we missed out on showing you." What a juvenile excuse. But not altogether unbelievable, the castle was gigantic afterall. You chuckled.

It was almost endearing to watch him explain to you stories of the demons in the paintings and then say "Oh my bad, MC." when he realised you are already familiar with it.

He was biding time. You smelled the scent of your favourite Devildom dish from the kitchen. "I asked Barabtos to prepare your favourite for dinner tonight. I also have a gift I'd like to give you."

Or he was doing something even more ridiculous - trying to win back your love. You shook your head at him, overwhekmed.

"Diavolo, really, you need not do all this for a mere human like me. You're the Future King of Devildom. I'm not half as deserving of all this time and attention you always keep giving me."

That seemed to hit a nerve. His smile faltered as he squeezed your hand. "You should come see your gift first then."

He took you to the throne room, two seats gleamed under the lights instead of one. "Take a seat, MC." How could he be so persistent without raising his voice, you wonder.

You did as he asked. "Now, close your eyes." You obeyed him again. You felt something slightly heavy being put on your head. You touched it. Solid, metallic and engraved with patterns and jewels. A crown.

"Diavolo I couldn't possibly-" He shut you up with a kiss, urgent and manic. All your feelings bubbling over, you ended up wrapping your arms around him.

"If the only reservations you have against me, are our difference in blood and status, let me show you how I slay anyone who objects to you. You have been nothing but capable and worthy eversince you've arrived. Noone is more worthy to be mine."

Barbatos

"I have something to show you, MC. Could you stay a little longer?" Barabtos whispered to you at the door. His voice and proximity - your heart skipped a beat. You nodded.

You bid goodbye to the others and Diavolo excused himself for he had a mountain of paper work left to do. "Right this way, MC." He offered his arm. You took it.

How often is it that you get him like this? It's so rare to be just him and you, with no impending duties or rush. "It's nice to see you relaxed like this..." You said, leaning into his shoulder.

He smiled and lead you to his quarters. "Come take a seat." He offered and you sat down on his bed. "What is it you wanted to show me then? Is it in here somewhere?"

He kneeled on the floor before you and cupped your face, his gloves soft against your skin. "Yes it is. But before that I'd like to continue our discussion from teatime. Who was it MC? Who is it you loved?"

You tried to avert your gaze. "You know who it is. Don't pretend as if you don't know..." Barbatos merely shrugged. Such a tease. He wouldn't rest until he heard it from you.

"It's you...it was you from the beginning. Kind, gentle, talented and loyal to a fault. Secretly playful even. You are so perfect in every way, how could I not?" Your eyes glistened at how badly you wanted him.

"And I know it's stupid okay? I know you have your duties and sworn loyalties. You must be so tired each day. I would only burden you further...and a future between us is impossible..."

"Impossible you say? I'd beg to differ." He looked to his side, gesturing at a door. You followed his gaze and watched the door open. It took your eyes a minute to adjust to see the vision inside.

You gasped. "No way...it couldn't possibly be.." Barbatos took his place next you, holding you from behind, resting his chin on your shoulder. "Oh but it is. Look, it's our wedding day. And everyone's there to celebrate us."

"You look so happy..." You pointed at his face. He chuckled into your skin, spreading warmth in your heart. "I'm always that happy with you around. Now won't you renew your affection for me again?"

I need more content of Manon being a freak and also I can’t ship Bok Su and Da Jeong because Da Jeong annoys me so here

I call this ship “Red Meat” for obvious reasons and I like puns

@racheldrawsthis would have an aneurysm if he saw this I think

Do the smiling critters dislike the vacuum cleaner? Since animals usually aren't a fan of those?
