Heaven is a Place on Earth

Guilty Pleasure

(So I feel like I should say, I know the actual series has parody names for brands etc, but I think I need to keep these ones as they really are. Partly because it's pretty specific what I'm talking about, and partly because I can't be bothered to come up with alternate names for them)

(Headcanon: Urushihara's guilty pleasure is Disney movies, especially The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Treasure Planet and Lilo and Stitch, because he relates to them most. Stitch is his favourite Disney character)

Ugh... I'm so bored... Urushihara thought. It was already after midnight and Maou and Ashiya were in bed, but he just couldn't get to sleep. Probably because he was still sitting in front of laptop screen, looking for something interesting. (Definitely not because he wanted to avoid nightmares.)

Maybe a movie would help...?

He quickly glanced over at Maou and Ashiya to make sure they were really asleep, then pulled out his headphones and plugged them in, bringing up his go-to site. The only question now was what to watch. He'd gone through a long to-watch list already and he needed something new. What was popular...? He scrolled through the selections for a few moments.

Huh... Might as well see what's so great about this Disney stuff.

He clicked on 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'. He had read that it was at least a little darker than the others, much more to his tastes. Soon, he was completely enthralled in the story. There was something familiar about Quasimodo to him, and he couldn't help but chuckle at the corruption of a church official, something he had seen first-hand. When the credits began to roll, he looked at the clock. Almost 2:00am. He could manage one more. This time: 'Treasure Planet'.

Watching the opening sequence, seeing Jim "solar surfing", he was reminded again of the feeling of flying. He crossed his arms on the desk in front of him and leaned forward, a smile on his face. His eyes remained locked on the screen, and when a song - I'm Still Here - began, he narrowed his eyes as he listened to the lyrics. Something there resonated with him. He was enjoying this.

He looked back at the clock again as it ended, rubbing his eye. He was starting to get tired now. But... one more couldn't hurt, could it? He went back to searching.

'Lilo and Stitch.'

At first, he didn't expect he would take this one as seriously as the first two, seeing as the protagonist was a child and the all-around atmosphere of the film just seemed more laidback, as time went on he found himself being pulled deeper and deeper into the world.

And when that line was said, "Ohana means family, family means no-one gets left behind", Urushihara felt a tear roll down his cheek. He hurriedly wiped it away and sniffed. He was just tired. That was it. He'd definitely go to sleep after this. For sure.

Maou woke up the following morning to find Urushihara collapsed on his desk, fast asleep, with the laptop still open. On the screen was a new Jungle.co wish list. Of Disney games.

And a Stitch plushie...
