a snippet from a reader/corbeau fic in which harmony decides to pay off urbain's debt with her body. (corbeau doesn't let her.)
#nautwrites
Corbeau finally squatted down, the smoky miasma of his cologne engulfing you. "And what do you have," Corbeau whispered, "that can equal such a cost?" You pressed your hands into the marble and met his gaze; you expected sadism, and instead found genuine curiosity. His expressions were always so at odds with his harsh inflection, and it unbalanced you as you stammered out, "M-My body." Corbeau looked unimpressed, as if you'd offered nothing more than a café coupon. "And how many times have you used this particular method to get yourself out of unsavory situations?" "I've never—" you swallowed, tried to find that bravery that allowed you to ascend to Rank E in the Z-A Royale. "I've never. With anyone," you clarified. "You would be the first." Corbeau's eyes widened behind his glasses, and he couldn't hide the catch of his breath. Now—now you truly had his entire attention. He leaned back on his heels as he appraised you anew. "You would prostitute yourself?" Corbeau raised an eyebrow. "For him? For AZ? For a city you barely even know?" "Better that than to be in debt to a wannabe mafioso," you couldn't help but snap. Corbeau laughed; the sound was surprisingly soft. "Nothing can quench that fire in you, kid, can it?" He said with surprising fondness. Was this all amusing to him? Were you just another toy to be hung on his wall like so many fine paintings when he was finished with you? Humiliation rose to your cheeks with a sudden flush. He caught your chin in his slender fingers, dragging your head up to meet his searching gaze. "You can't take this back, you know," he warned. "Think carefully. You're much too young to ruin your life. Trust me, I'd know." "That didn't stop you from ruining Urbain's." Venom dripped from your tongue. "He's a big kid. I need to know you're absolutely certain." Corbeau was giving you an out, and you found yourself contemplating taking it. Exactly how much would you have to do? What would he ask you to do? You hadn't let yourself consider it until now as he cupped your chin in his chilly fingers. Your mind filled with pornographic images, each more vulgar than the last, and you are shocked to find only a strange heat filling your core. Was this for Lumiose's sake, or your own? You'd been asked time and time again by your competitors why you'd so recklessly thrown yourself into a bloodthirsty tourney. You'd mumbled some platitudes, but the truth of the matter was, it was for your sake alone that you persevered. For the seductive taste of victory in the back of your throat as another opponent fell to their knees before you. "I know what I'm worth," you finally exhaled. "As long as it doesn't interfere with my duties to the hotel." Corbeau smirked and stood; you felt strangely bereft of his touch. "Yes, that hotel. Strange that I've invested so much into its continued maintenance and never once stepped foot on its threshold. I'll have to pay them a visit—tonight."

Halmarut panicking because the WoL looked at her lives rent free in my mind. I just really wanted to draw her being scared/flustered...

Woman with red hair, green horns and a green dress holding a squirrel plush looking scared as she sits on the floor.

Have a terrified G'raha gpose I made since it's your b-day. I was inspired by the fic that someone made and comic you made based off it. The Exarch is coming to punch his face in while the Ocular doors are locked tee hee :3

I need to finish it someday....

it's important to me that in 2026 you remember that fandom is a hobby you do for fun. you should be having fun. there's no wrong way to fandom except if you're not having fun.

i guess my 2026 fandom goal is just to write something! i'm currently in a touching grass era/all my fixations are irl hobbies. i miss rotating a sad boy around in my brain. i keep telling myself doing other things will give me interesting things to write about when i come back, but i miss it still.

So here it is.
Best with "The instrument of Surrender" as a souundtrack.
