Stuck In Another Reality? Darn.

Special #2! ☆♡☆

Another special because I posted this on quotev for getting 50 hearts! :>

Woah, I never expected my random fanfic to get this far! Thank you so much for the support, everyone! ♡

Behold, the special content now:

You pathetically dragged yourself to Rantaro's house, praying that he was home. No way were you going to stay at your house any longer.

Not with the monsters there. You spat at the idea of calling it a house. More like a hellhole with demons infesting it.

You couldn't believe your naiive nature as you continued on your trudge, wanting to die at the thought of what they wanted you to do.

No. Focus on the safe haven you were getting close to. You brought your hand up to the doorbell, tentatively pressing on it.

A young girl with green hair opened the door after a minute and recognized you.

"RANTARO! [Name] is here!" She shouted, glancing over your empty state in concern.

A familiar bob of green hair appeared, an earring inside his ear. You ran your fingers through your hair, trying not to focus on how much it suited him. "Can I stay here for a while? They tried to..." You trailed off, not being able to finish as you shrank into yourself.

You were ashamed of being vulnerable.

But Rantaro didn't mind. He brought you into a tight hug, one you immediately melted into.

"You don't have to explain now. You need rest, more than anything. Of course we're willing to take you in, alright?" Your eyes shined with tears as you looked up at him, and you developed a shaky grin.

"I'll even do your nails, if you want." The attempt of lighting up the situation worked as a laugh escaped you.

"Thank you so much." You breathed out, so relieved to bathe in his brotherly aura.

"Don't worry about it. You deserve to be happy."

You didn't realize it at the time, but those words would stay with you for the rest of your life.

Fin.

Long A/N below:

Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping to read this. It's been so much fun writing this, even with me once having to delete several drafts at once cuz I decided to do something a bit different than what I had planned.

=w="" sobs

Anyways-! The special is a hint of something major, but it's also a peek into the fabricated backstory. Tsumugi went crazy writing the backstory, so hope you're ready for that.

Oh! One last story related hint:

The tingling doesn't happen by coincidence.

A signal, but for what?

Anyways, here's the last announcement I have for you guys:

I've been thinking of publishing an Encanto fanfic (god that movie is SO good & the music is a bop) with an OC of mine. It'll focus on mainly platonic relationships, idk if it'll go as far into the romance as this one is eventually is. Still rummaging for ideas on that one.

And yes, I said eventually for this one. I'm still aiming for information and personal development first and foremost, and if I had to roughly guess, I'm ~15% of the way until any romance is on the table.

Gotta cover alllll the bases: pre-game, reaction to the rest of the game, recuperation, etc.

And it's gonna take a while.

But lemme know your thoughtms, and a regular update will come tomorrow!
