requested by @/Mychemcherry with the addition of papa terzo :D
again, this one is a bit angsty but i added a bit more comfort than i usually do.
please spare me, i've been threatened by grocery store parking lots one to many times. very funny though.
—RAIN—
- rain never raises his voice at you, so it was a shock when he yelled at you.
- in all honestly, it's hard to even get rain pissed, so really you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
you smiled as you saw rain walking down the hallway, looking down at the ground as he shuffled to the catacombs.
you quickly rushed over to your boyfriend, wrapping your arms around him as you jumped onto his back.
"get the fuck off of me!" rain yelled, shoving you off of his body. you yelped, stumbling slightly before you hit the wall.
"rain, what the hell?! it's me!" you exclaimed, holding your shoulder.
you had surprised him like that many times, and you always asked if he was still okay with it after, so you weren't crossing any boundaries that you knew of.
rain's eyes were wide as he realized it was you just trying to be affectionate.
"shit, y/n, i'm sorry," rain apologized quickly, stepping closer to you and moving your shirt so he could look at the shoulder you were holding. you let him look, hearing his sigh of relief before he hugged you tightly.
"dew was being a dick to me. i just left to take a walk and i was super wired. i'm sorry, dove." rain whispered into your ear, hugging you in a way that you would know he was sorry. "it's okay. i should probably ask more if it's okay to jump on you like that, anyway." you chuckled softly, hugging rain just as tight. rain smiled, wrapping his tail around your calf.
"would you like to finish my walk with me?" rain asked after a few moments. you smiled, nodding.
"of course."
—MOUNTAIN—
- swiss kept knocking on the door and then running away, so when you knocked on your shared bedroom door because your hands were full, mountain yelling at you caught you off guard.
you struggled slightly to knock on the door with the two spare fingers you had, a whole pile of boxes in your arms from the mail unit of the ministry.
you heard a low growl from your room as soon as your knocking sounded, the door flew open, mountain starting to yell at you about not knocking on your shared door. you jumped back, struggling to keep all the boxes in your arms as you stared at mountain with wide eyes.
after a moment, mountain stopped yelling as he realized it was you outside of the door and not swiss.
"shit, love, i'm sorry." mountain said, his voice significantly quieter. "swiss has been being an ass. do you need help?" mountain asked. "please." you nodded.
mountain quickly took all of the boxes from you, though you intended to carry some yourself. you didn't argue, knowing it wouldn't go your way even if mountain wasn't as wired as he was.
you stepped in, leaving the door open so swiss wouldn't ding dong ditch anymore.
"what is all of this?" mountain asked, setting all the boxes onto the desk as ace hopped over, his wings slightly extended as he examined the boxes.
"some of it is stuff for ace that came in late, i think one is those sweatpants you asked for, and a couple are either some clothes i ordered for me, or clothes i ordered for you." you explained, stretching as best as you could to relieve the tension from carrying all those boxes. mountain noticed, stepping behind you as you started opening all the boxes.
"i'm sorry for yelling at you.." mountain whispered, starting an easy massage into your shoulders and upper back. you let out a sigh, your head reeling back to rest on mountain's chest as you felt the immediate relief.
"it's okay, i know you didn't mean it." you whispered back, ace flying over to his cage and perching on the little play area that was sat on top.
mountain smiled, pressing a kiss to your head before moving his hands to your mid back.
"satan, why have you never done this before? this is amazing." you rambled slightly, pushing yourself into mountain's body even more. mountain laughed, wrapping his arms around you for a hug as he buried his face into the crook of your neck.
—AETHER—
- i'd say he doesn't yell at you, but i've written that scenario twice already.
- usually it's just because he's really stressed, or dew has pulled him to his wits end with everything.
- wrong place wrong time kind of situation whenever he yells at you.
"aeth, can you bring me that folder?" you asked, looking over your shoulder at the card stock you had set on your dresser and pointing at at.
"yeah, give me a sec," aether hummed, typing away at the phone the ministry had given him for the week.
copia was out of town, of course the ghouls wanted to keep in contact with him.
"i kinda need it now, aeth.." you chuckled, looking back at the paper you were filling out. "i know, just a second." aether mumbled.
you went around different areas of the paperwork you were filling out, looking over your shoulder to see aether hadn't even moved.
"aether, please. i really need it." you sighed, looking back at your papers in front of you. if you got up you'd completely lose where you were and what you were doing—that couldn't happen. you were doing so well with your productivity, you didn't want to ruin it now.
"i said in a second." aether grumbled. "yeah, three minutes ago." you stated, looking around the paper as you started to feel yourself drift off from the work.
you felt a pit in your stomach form. you needed to get this done. it had been weighing on you for the past week and it had been really fucking with your mental health. you couldn't stop now.
you glanced over as aether didn't respond, seeing him completely focused on the phone in his claws.
you looked back at your work, frowning as you stood and shuffled over to the dresser. you felt all motivation you had soak into the carpet with every step you took, the dread of another week of the this work breathing down your neck making your head hurt.
"what, you couldn't wait 10 more seconds?" aether growled, narrowing his eyes at you as you walked back over to the desk.
you placed the folder onto the desk, staring down at all the papers scattered around the wooden surface.
yep.. all motivation is completely gone. you thought to yourself.
you sighed, bringing your hands up to your face and digging the heels of your palms into your eyes to relief the oncoming migraine.
"fuckin' hell, you aren't even going to answer me?!" aether exclaimed, standing up from the bed and turning you to look at him.
your eyes widened slightly at the aggressive force, your balance being fucked due to your headache. you barely stumbled, instinctively reaching out for aether to steady yourself.
aether's eyes widened slightly as he quickly pulled you into a hug, holding your waist tightly.
"fuck, i'm sorry, y/n.." aether whispered. "it's hard not having copia here.." aether continued. you stayed quiet, feeling the exhaustion of putting 100% of yourself into your work for the past 5 hours starting to catch up with you.
"c'mon, we both need a nap to de-stress." aether mumbled, guiding you to the bed and climbing in, letting you get comfortable on top of him.
"i really am sorry.." aether whispered, brushing his claws through your hair. you nodded, "i know. it just sucks because now that project is just gonna fuck me up even more.." you mumbled, your eyes falling closed as you let yourself slip into sleep.
aether frowned, knowing how much those papers had been freaking you out. you had been borderline paranoid, going as far as to stay up all night and force yourself to work, thinking you'd have nightmares if you didn't.
though, to be fair, you had gotten a few nightmares from that project before, so the fear wasn't completely irrational.
aether slowly slipped out from under you, going over to the desk and sitting down.
the quintessence ghoul picked up the folder and opening it, picking up another paper.
"i'm gonna figure you out.." aether spoke lowly, almost as if he was threatening the project for having such a negative effect on you.
—SWISS—
- he has a bit of a temper, i won't lie.
- usually he tries to control it around you, but sometimes he's just so pissed he can't help but blow up from even the slightest creak of the floor.
you watched anxiously as swiss started to become aggravated with everyone at practice. he had been putting his all into this one, seeing as copia asked him to, and it felt like everyone else was slacking off.
you watched as dew walked over to swiss, jumping back slightly as the multi-ghoul said something to him, presumably in an aggressive way. you bit your lip anxiously as dew turned around and made eye contact with you.
the fire ghoul quickly rushed over in the time he had left between the songs, adjusting how his guitar was hanging from his shoulders.
"the hell happened with swiss?" dew asked. "i don't know. i've been watching him just get more and more angry. should i pull him out for a walk or something?" you tried to come up with a solution.
dew glanced over his shoulder, seeing swiss glaring at him, his golden eyes seeming to glow.
"yeah. now, preferably." dew stated. you nodded quickly standing and shuffling over to copia who was about to talk to the ghouls, but stopped as he saw you approaching.
"hello," copia smiled. "hi," you tried to smile back. "um, could i take swiss for a few minutes? he's started to get a bit riled up and i don't want anything to happen." you explained. copia looked over at the multi-ghoul, seeing him angrily adjusting how all the wires around him were situated. copia looked back to you, nodding.
"swiss," copia called. swiss looked up, his eyes narrowed. "could you come here for a moment?" copia asked. swiss grumbled, putting his mic back into it's stand before walking over, shoulder checking dew.
your eyes widened at the aggressive move, dew whipping around to yell at the multi-ghoul. though, he stopped as he made eye contact with you and rain put his hand on his shoulder.
"that was entirely uncalled for, swiss." copia scolded. swiss growled, glaring at the fourth papa. you quickly took swiss' hand, making him look at you.
"let's go for a walk.."
"i fuckin' hate all of them!" swiss grunted, punching a wall.
this is not going how i want it to. you thought.
"no, you don't swiss. it's okay. just take a deep breath-" you started, but the multi-ghoul cut you off.
"i don't need to take a deep breath. i'm fine. let me go back." swiss grumbled, shaking out his clawed hand after the pain of hitting stone started to get to him.
"swiss, you're too angry. you'll hurt someone-" you sighed, putting your hand on his shoulder.
"hurt someone?? are you serious?" swiss growled, whipping around to look at you. "you really think i'd hurt one of my packmates? the hell is your problem, y/n?!" swiss yelled, waving his arms around as he stomped towards you.
"no, you didn't let me finish." you stated, backing up.
you trusted swiss, you did, but he wasn't thinking straight. something was bothering him and he wasn't handling it well.
"i don't need to let you finish. if you think so low of me then why are you with me?!" swiss yelled as your back hit the wall, though he didn't stop. swiss walked up to you, your faces inches apart.
"get a grip, swiss." you grumbled, glaring into his eyes. yelling at you about him misunderstanding what you said was one thing, but testing your relationship was something you weren't going to take lightly.
"you're too angry to listen. you cut me off-" you went to keep speaking but swiss did exactly what you just said. "i do not cut you off." swiss growled. you glared up at him, your stare seeming to knock some sense into his thick skull.
swiss stepped back a bit, mumbling out a small apology.
"you need to learn when to shut up and realize someone is trying to help you. you turn into a completely different person whenever you get pissed like that," you crossed your arms, pushing off from the wall so it didn't feel like you were cornered anymore. "it's scary.." you trailed off, tightening your arms around yourself as a sense of security.
swiss looked up at you, a look of regret in his eyes.
"i'm sorry.." swiss mumbled again, all his angry mannerisms gone. you sighed, hugging the somewhat cowering multi-ghoul.
he wasn't scared, just ashamed. this happened too often and he hated it.
"i'm so fucking sorry, babe.." swiss whispered, his voice cracking slightly as he hugged you back.
—DEW—
- he tries his best not to yell at you, and he's the one out of all the ghouls who usually succeeds—void rain, but he never yells.
- though, when dew does yell at you for no reason, it's because someone has pissed him off so much he can't realize who he's yelling at.
you sighed tiredly as you walked into you and dew's shared room, only to get a pillow thrown at you.
"GET OUT!" dew yelled, growling loudly. disoriented, you quickly left the room closing the door.
why was dew so mad? why was he mad at you? you had been working all day, you couldn't have done anything.
you stood there for a moment before shaking your head and walking to the common room.
mountain was the only one in there, sat on the couch reading his book. you walked over, laying down and putting your head in mountain's lap.
"are you okay?" mountain asked. "sleep, please.." you mumbled. "you look exhausted, y/n. are you sure me helping you is a good idea?" mountain asked, setting his book down and running his hands through your hair.
"dew just yelled at me. i'm tired but my mind will be going too fast for me to sleep on my own." you sighed, closing your eyes. mountain hummed, placing his hand on your forehead.
in seconds, you felt yourself falling asleep, your head almost rolling to the side before mountain stabilized you.
~
you whined in discomfort as you woke up, hearing dew's soft voice shush you. you calmed down when you realized it was your ghoul carrying you, allowing yourself to lean into his body.
"i'm sorry for yelling earlier. imperator pissed me off and i couldn't process who i was talking to." dew whispered, laying you in bed. you hummed as dew climbed into bed next to you, holding you close.
shadow hopped up onto the bed, jumping up onto the bookcase headboard where his bed was and curling up in it.
"go back to sleep, angel. i love you." dew whispered, grazing his hand up and down your hip. "i love you, too." you mumbled. your words slurred as you leaned into the fire ghoul. dew laughed softly, kissing your forehead lovingly.
—TERZO—
- he's always so happy, it's weird to have him mad at you.
"no, they go here." terzo grumbled, moving the folders you had placed to their spots. "oh, i'm sorry." you apologized.
terzo ignored your apology going back to the pile of papers he was working on. you frowned, feeling uncomfortable in the unusually tense atmosphere.
you looked at all the things terzo had said you could help with, but suddenly felt entirely unqualified to do so.
"terzo?" you called. the third papa hummed, not listening very much. "um.. i'm really sorry to skip out like this, but i think i might just mess things up more if i try to help.." you explained, messing with your fingers. terzo paused, looking up at your after a moment.
"what are you saying?" he asked lowly. "i just wanted to ask if i could go. i don't think i'll be able to give the help you need- um.." you cut yourself off as you saw terzo glaring at you.
"i was relying on you to help me get this done today, y/n. but apparently not." terzo growled, looking down at the papers in his hands. "i'm sorry, but i haven't helped much anyway and you've had to fix everything i've done. i thought it would be better-" terzo cut you off.
"GO THEN! leave!" terzo yelled.
you jumped back, your eyes wide. terzo continued to stare you down, his white eye glowing slightly.
you swallowed and nodded, turning and leaving the room.
i didn't know what to write for terzo, i'm sorry :')
