yO YOU SEXY SONS OF BI-*COUGH*

anywho, this is just an introduction chapter of sorts.

basically, here's what's gonna go down:

Imma write one-shots about some of my favorite ships from some of my favorite shows, they ain't gonna be long (maybe) and they're basically just here for my own personal enjoyment as well as any of yours if you so happen to like 'em as well. I may or may not write a request given to me for this but just so you know, lemme tell you this right now: I ain't writing shit about ships I could give less fucks about and if the pairing isn't how I like 'em in my head (ie: if you like one the seme and the other a uke and I see it the complete opposite) so yeah. Don't expect me to bend to your will cause you can happily go right the fuck off with that. Oh, also: I ain't writing no fucking trans or gender-bending shit whatsofuckingever. That fucking shit pisses me the fuck off, both my #1 and #2 most hated things in fics respectively. Why do I hate them? None of your business. Am I in a bad mood? Honestly idk but just wanted to get that outta the way so you know what not to ask if you wanna make a request. Wanna know what ships and positions I prefer? Well, the ships themselves are in the tags but if you're lazy (like me) and don't wanna read that and/or just saw that this was tagged under a fandom you liked and were interested solely on that, here ya go:

BnHA:

LET'S JUST MAKE THIS EASY FOR EVERYONE. IZUKU FOREVER HAS BEEN AND FOREVER WILL BE A BOTTOM. At best when assertive he's a power bottom. Never a top. For me, he's bottoming even for women (and not with strap-ons and things like that ya freaks. More, like, metaphorically... or maybe even literally if the girl were to ride him, who knows). So, yeah. Izuku is a bottom in every single ship I ship him with.

Saiyuki:

Sanzo (top) x Goku (bottom)

Nanbaka:

Uno (top) x Jyugo (Bottom) [also, tf is with the two u's in the ship tags? kinda weird ass shit is that. i only did it for the additional tags just to be consistent]

Digimon:

Matt (top) x Tai (bottom)

Thomas (top) x Marcus (bottom)

Kouji (top) x Takuya (bottom)

Pokemon:

Gary (top) x Ash (bottom)

Blue (top) x Red (bottom)

Gold (top) x Silver (bottom)

Mononokean:

Haruitsuki (top) x Hanae (bottom)

Free!:

Makoto (top) x Haruka (bottom)

Slime Reincarnation:

Same with BnHA. Rimuru is forever bottom. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.

Sanders Sides:

Roman (top) x Virgil (bottom)

All shippings and positions are non-negotiable and thus if you want a request you'll have to abide by the rules. Again, this little shindig is just for fun for me and I'm really only posting it out to show everyone my preferences and hopefully find a few people who like it as well or at least enjoy what I write. Now that that's out of the way, let's get down to business. to defeat the Huns

Side note: More ships are definitely to be added as I think of them so yeah... look out for that. Just saw a fandom I liked and remembered a ship I loved from it... might add that idk haven't seen it in forever.

PS: Unlike with BnHA where Izuku is just shippable with anyone and everyone, I tend to stick with one person for each other kinda thing where I might stray off into a "hey, this person looks cute with two people" or whatever but yeah... for most of these don't expect me to be more open about it. I don't hate other ships (most of the time) but I am very attached to the ones I do like. Idk what happened with Izuku tho he's just too precious to keep to one person ig.

PPS: OH FUCK I JUST REMEMBERED ANOTHER SHIP AND HAVE NOW ADDED THEM CAUSE I'M A FORGETFUL FUCKING MORON. ;V;

Chapter Text

On the cliff, under the blanket of night and dimly lit stars, stood a figure, staring at the calm ocean below, the waves gently brushing against the rugged rocks below. Tired violet eyes stared at the waves, lazily following them back and forth in their slow movements, feet dangerously close to the edge as their arms hugged their knees close to their chest. After a few silent moments, a quiet rustle sounded from behind them, but they didn't bother looking up. They knew who it was.

"Virgil," a kind, soft voice echoed throughout the dead of night, making the sitting figure shiver at the kindness. No, he didn't want this. Don't sound so kind... please. "Virgil, what are you doing here?"

Virgil tightened his grip, burying his face in his thighs, refusing to answer the other. He can't... he can't do this if they insisted on being kind to him. Hate me, please. Yell at me, curse at me, just please... don't make this any harder than it has to be. Don't make this harder than it needs to be for me. After seeing that they weren't going to get an answer any time soon, Virgil heard a quiet huff of amusement from behind him, making his heart do flips in his chest, and they moved closer to him, sitting next to him, their warmth radiating off of their body and towards him. Violet eyes dared to peek at their company and instantly regretted it. Soft reddish-brown eyes caught them and the two stared at each other, neither speaking, one gaze panicked and the other full of fondness.

No, please. Don't look at me like that. If you do, then I won't be able to let go.

"It's a nice night out tonight." That calm, soothing voice said, snapping Virgil from his inner turmoil. He glanced at the sky before returning his tired eyes to the ocean below, not acknowledging the other's comment. That didn't seem to deter them as they continued anyway, "You like the stars, don't you? You're always looking at them with such longing... As if they mean more to you than I could ever know."

That got Virgil's attention as he snapped his head up to look into those warm eyes that haven't left his face since before. "H-How did you know...?" His voice trembled and he berated himself for it in his mind.

Roman smiled gently at him, the way his lips curled upward doing unwanted things to Virgil's heart and stomach, the moon unfairly making his face glow beautifully. "Do you think I wouldn't notice, with how much of my time I spend just simply watching you?"

Virgil's heart and face became traitorous, a flush and heartbeat skipped a result of the other's honey-coated words. He hastily looked away, not wanting to stare at the other for any moment longer. He knew that if he did, he would give in to his emotions and do something he would regret for the rest of his life. Roman watched his emo friend quietly, keenly noticing the subtle blush and purple eyes widening minutely at his words, making himself slightly embarrassed. Did this man know what his actions did to him? Roman had watched Virgil for a long, long time. He knew what signs to look for, the way those violet eyes flashed when he was sad, the way he would roll his lips when he stifled a smile or laugh, the cute huff when he couldn't help it... All of it did wonders to his heart and he was captured by the beauty of it all.

Of course, there were things that he didn't like about the other. The way he seemed to focus more on the negatives than the positives, the way he seemed to know what exact buttons to press to get on his nerves, his refusal to see the good things in himself... However, no was perfect. No, Roman knew that very well, but he had accepted that part of Virgil a long, long time ago.

Virgil was perfectly imperfect.

And now, seeing such a beautiful being blush cutely at his words, a glint of longing but reluctance flash in his eyes, as if he wanted the same thing Roman did but had long accepted the fact that they could never be together... Roman couldn't hide his feelings any longer. If the angsty ball of hidden sunshine couldn't say it, then he would. He'll say it as many times and as long as he'd have to for his feelings to get across.

"Virgil," he began but was immediately cut off.

"Don't!" Virgil shouted, jumping up, tears pooling in his eyes, suddenly unable to breathe properly. "Please... don't..."

Roman got up as well, reaching out a hand to the other. "Virgil, listen to me-"

"No! Don't say anything!" The purple-haired male shouted, panicked. He couldn't let this happen...! "Don't say it! I can't- we can't-"

"I love you!" Roman interrupted, watching as wet, wide eyes snapped up to look into his own. "I don't know what sort of fictitious walls you've set up, but I refuse to believe that what I'm feeling is fake! Virgil," he smiled warmly, lovingly looking at the man in front of him. "I love you."

Hot tears streamed down his face as Virgil forced himself not to immediately jump into the other's arms and accept such a powerful, endearing, determined confession, allow himself the potential to indulge in a fantasy and live forever with the only person he'd ever fallen in love with. But, he couldn't. He knew he couldn't. Never has the world allowed him such luxury. No, he was here for one thing and one thing only. After that, he would be forced back, back to the place where nothing could be found... A place where he'd wait until he was needed once more. Not because he was himself, only because he was useful at the time.

"I..." Virgil's tongue felt dry in his mouth, his throat constricting as he tried to talk but couldn't find the words to what he wanted to say. He knew he needed to tell Roman why they couldn't be together, but he didn't... he couldn't.

"Virgil..." Please, don't... "Virgil." Not what that voice. Not with that look. Please... "Virgil, come here." Don't give me anymore hope.

"I... I can't." He gasped out, clutching his arm tightly. Before Roman could speak, he hastily shook his head, "Don't you think I wish I could? To forget everything and run into your arms? To live in a world outside the one I'm destined to return back to? To live with the only person I've ever loved...?"

His voice cracked at the end, his emotions running amok in his heart, muddling his thoughts. He didn't miss the look of shock then hope on Roman's face, the other opening his mouth to speak before the moon suddenly brightening, beaming a light down onto Virgil, as if becoming his own personal spotlight. The brunette snapped his mouth shut, looking at the purple-haired male before him in awe. Virgil felt a sense of dread run through his veins as he let out a quiet sigh of acceptance, closing his eyes and allowing his wings to bloom, the dark coloring contrasting with the milky white light from the moon. Roman's eyes widened and he was starstruck with the beauty of the scene before him.

Virgil began to float upwards slowly, cracking his eyes open slightly, looking like a fallen angel being banished to the moon. Roman watched the scene for a moment more before realizing Virgil made no move to stop what was happening. "Virgil...?"

The broken smile he got in return broke his heart and made him begint to panic. "I told you... I can't be with you. I'm sorry, Roman..."

"Virgil!" Roman shouted, hurriedly using his magic to make himself float and rushed after Virgil, who had somehow suddenly gotten too far away.

He reached out a hand, desperately trying to grab a hold of the other, becoming excited when he neared him only to grab onto thin air as Virgil's body slowly disappeared, the last words he heard being, "I'm sorry, Roman... I love you."

Tears pooled in his eyes, running freely down his face as he screamed out: "Virgil!"

His voice echoed out, unable to reach the person he was calling out to, that person having gone back to the place that refused to allow any sort of light in, once again closing his heart, not allowing himself to cry for what he had gained only to be forced to lose.
