Summer Dates!

by WaywardTraveler90

Summary:

There is a week left of ServantFes! How will you spend it?

Chapter 1: Make your choice!

Summary:

This concept of this was based off of MageMaster's Brides of Rime fic!

All chapters are not connected to each other except the last one, and thats vaguely. Simply because... Can you imagine the war room that would be Fujimaru's Bedroom?? Though events do take place. Like Fujimaru going to the concert with Cas while still being Cnoc's servant. Just the smut that takes place in each chapter is contained. I hope that makes sense!

After all of the usual ServantFes antics...

 

The spirit formerly known as Yaraändoo, now as Cnoc Na Riabh, is now permanently the reward for clearing this singularity thanks to Morgan's magic.... Now it's time to wrap all of this up and go home.

 

"It's a shame that summer's over now..." Castoria says, and Fujimaru frowns, seeing his friend sad.

 

"Not just yet, isn't that right, Morgan?" Avalon says, winking at the Lady of the Lake.

 

"Hm? Why are you telling me this?"

 

"Don't you remember the promise of the prize for the Earthman race?" Avalon asks, poking at the witch. "The winner shall get to spend a week with Master, however they like," Avalon says, mimicking Morgan. "And since Fujimaru won, they get to spend a week in Hawaltria however he wishes. And that means YOU need to maintain the singularity for another week~" Avalon says cheekily, and Morgan scowls at her. "The High Queen of Faerie Britain would never go back on her word, would she? Of course, it's an almost impossible spell, so you'll probably need to lock yourself in your workshop the whole time, but oh well!" She says, sticking out her tongue.

 

"You deceitful wench!" Morgan nearly shouts. "Did you think I'd merely go along with that bec-"

 

"Mother," Baobhan Sith says as she tugs on her mother's sleeve. "Is this singularity going to be around for another week? If so, I'd happily help you maintain it!"

 

Morgan takes a breath and calms down. "Whom do you think you are addressing? Of course, I can maintain this Singularity on my own. Besides, I already built a hotel. It would be a waste not to use it," She says as she smiles at her daughter. "No, you should enjoy the rest of the summer, however you wish. Fortunately, there is someone here who would be perfect for showing you around. Right, Fujimaru?

 

"yAYYYYY!" Baobhan Sith says as she jumps around happily.

 

"So even though ServantFes is over, summer's still going strong!" Cas says with a smile. "Now that our mission's complete and we don't have to work anymore, what would you like to do, Fujimaru? Is there anywhere you want to go?"

 

Show Baobhan Sith around.

 

Go on a shopping trip with Cnoc Na Riabh.

 

Give The Dark Faerie Prince a piece of your mind. (Castoria) 

 

Go on a date with Barghest. 

 

Take part in the second Earthman Race.

 

Visit Queen Morgan. 

 

Go to sleep. 

Chapter 2: Bloody Tears

Notes:

Hey! For those returning and going "I thought this was chapter 4," you are completely right! It was. But uh, it made more sense being chapter 2.

After giving Oberon a piece of his mind with Castoria, the Master of Chaldea returned to his hotel room to finally get the long-deserved rest his body is screaming for. Defeating an Angry Fluffy God of Destruction, going to a Convention, and then yelling at a VERY INNOCENT dark Faerie Prince took a toll on Humanity's Last Master.

 

Though... There is something in the back of his mind... As if he forgot something important. 

 

Oh well, if he forgot, then it wasn't important.

 

Meanwhile, at the Rain Witch's Hut...

 

A very disheartened Baobhan Sith hugs her Cerrunos pillow as she lies on her side. "It's fine... I didn't wanna go around the island with Master..."

 

"He probably forgot! Yeah! That's definitely what happened!" Baobhan thinks to herself and begins to cheer up, until... She remembers he was out with that Country Bumpkin Faerie! 

 

"CURSES!"

 

Sunday morning

 

The Queen's words of: "Fortunately, there is someone here who would be perfect for showing you around. Right, Fujimaru?" play in Fujimaru's head.

 

Fujimaru sits up in a cold sweat as the rays of the sun wake him up. "Oh shit! I completely forgot to show Baobhan around! She's going to be so mad!" he says as he scrambles out of bed and gets ready to go find the Faerie Knight. 

 

You see, the Master did like Baobhan Sith. Like, really like. Like like. The fairy tale kind of like.

 

Of course, he wasn't happy to do a Tower Event thanks to her a few weeks ago (Though she did have some good intentions, but still, a pain in the ass.). But he was more than willing to show the Queen's daughter around and spend time with her. He just really wishes he had remembered to do so... Last night. Because he knew how much of a pain she was going to be this morning.

 

After grabbing some breakfast (he just about missed it, but Barghest made sure the Master didn't forget to at least grab a sandwich and an apple) and making a mad dash through the forest to the Rain Witch's Hut, he finally stands in front of the door, panting and catching his breath. 

 

Finally, he knocks on the door and waits a few moments before Baobhan finally opens the door. "Hey, Baobhan!" Fujimaru says as he leans on the door frame with a nervous smile. 

 

The Faerie squints at him suspiciously. "Hello..." She says and looks around to see if he brought anyone else. "You didn't bring anyone else this time, right?"

 

"Nope! Just me!" Fujimaru says, and Baobhan moves out of the way.

 

"Come in then, I'll make us some tea," Baobhan says as she shuffles to the kitchen. Fujimaru follows and sits on one of the chairs near one of the drawing tables. 

 

"Look, I'm really sorry, I really didn't mean to forget," Fujimaru apologizes, and he can see the frown on Baobhan's face. "I was really tired after yelling at Oberon." 

 

"It's fine..." Baobhan grumbles, obviously, not fine.

 

"Oh no! She's been moping all night! She's in a worse state than I thought!" Fujimaru thinks to himself, trying to navigate how to fix this.

 

The water begins to boil while Baobhan Sith bites her fingernail. She pours the water into the tea cups and walks over to Fujimaru, holding the tea cups. 

 

"How about this! We take a tour of the island today? Just you and me, all day."

 

"OKAY!" Baobhan Sith says excitedly as she hears the magic words. She then throws tea cups over her shoulder. 

 

"There was poison in those, wasn't there?"

 

"... Maybe."

 

---

 

After the shattered tea cups were cleaned up, in fear that the Rain Witch would come back and be upset her place was a mess, and the two shared a nice cuppa with some biscuits, they properly set off on their tour of the island. They get to see the statue of Pele(and luckily enough, they aren't attacked by a certain Foreigner), the Earthman Race track, the many clothing shops, ice cream shops, and a certain Assassin's merch shop. Thankfully for Fujimaru, Baobhan was kind enough not to make him her personal servant and carry all of the stuff she bought. 

 

At the end of the day, the two end up at Waikiki beach, where they went for a swim and played in the water with each other. By this point, the two are very tired and sitting under an umbrella at the beach watching the sunset.

 

"Did I manage to exceed your expectations, Sith?" Fujimaru asks as he looks over at Baobhan.

 

Baobhan smiles at the Master and wraps her arms around his arm and entwines her fingers with hers. "Yes, you have," She says as she leans on him. "Well, I would have liked to get some boba, but other than that... Yes, yes, you have." She smiles cheekily at him.

 

"Alright, well, we can go get some later this week."

 

"Perfect."

 

"I'm glad I was able to make up for not showing you around yesterday. You look a lot better than you did this morning," Fujimaru says as he looks at the sunset, watching the sky slowly turn purple.

 

"Okay," Baobhan says, rolling her eyes. "I wasn't that bad."

 

"You were in dangerous levels of moping."

 

"You have a tier list?!" Baobhan nearly yells, and Fujimaru just laughs, and she joins him. 

 

"I do, one to three. Van Gogh is at one, then Miss Crane at two, and then Scheherazade at three. You were getting dangerously close to Scheherazade's level," Fujimaru explains.

 

Sith gasps at the accusation. "I was not!" She says, slapping his arm playfully.

 

"You so were! You tried pulling a Romeo and Juliet!" Fujimaru says. "Shakespeare would've had a field day!" 

 

Thank God, Shakespeare wasn't called. Fuck that guy.

 

"It was only a LITTLE bit of poison!" Baobhan says as she tries to defend herself. "A certain mushroom-loving maiden gave me just a little-" she says until her eyes widen in shock as she fully processes what Fujimaru said. "Romeo and Juliet?" She says in a quiet voice. 

 

"Wait. Waitwaitwait! Does that mean he likes me too?!" The Faerie thinks to herself as she holds his arm tightly. If Fujimaru was paying attention closely enough, he'd feel the poor girl's heart starting to beat faster and faster.

 

"That's still poison!" Fujimaru playfully argues, blissfully unaware that the woman is realizing they share the same feelings.

 

"Okay fiinne..." Baobhan Sith says, looking to the side. If the girl could blush, she'd be red ear to ear.

 

Fujimaru looks at her as the sky begins to darken and the hotel begins to fire fireworks off into the sky. Her face lights up as she sees the explosions light up the sky, and the man places his hand on her chin and looks into her eyes.

 

Baobhan's eyes widen, almost like a cat's, as she looks at him. Fujimaru is actually paying attention now. Both he and Sith can feel her heart begin to almost beat out of her chest... And then the man leaves a quick peck on her cheek and sits back up.

 

"Man! These fireworks are great!" Fujimaru says as he looks up at the sky, acting like he didn't just kiss her. 

 

"Shut up," Sith says as she grabs his wrist tightly and pulls both of them to the ground and presses her lips to his... In a terrible attempt at a first kiss. Almost like her only experiences of love were read from romance novels or something. Her teeth graze against his bottom lip as she breaks away for air and then greedily goes in for another kiss, this time just a tad bit better.

 

Fujimaru looks at her as they break away from the kiss with a goofy smile and blush from ear to ear. "You uh... Like me, too?" Baobhan Sith nervously nods. "Wanna go back to your spooky hut?"

 

Baobhan is about to nod, but then punches his shoulder. "It's not spooky! I think it's very homey." She says very matter-of-factly. "But yes."

 

So, the two scrambled up with all of their trinkets and souvenirs and made their way back to the Rain Witch's Hut.

 

On the trek back, the two have to walk across a log lodged between a stream to allow passage across. Most couples would just walk across all willy-nilly. 

 

Of course, Fujimaru and Baobhan Sith are not most couples. 

 

Baobhan Sith smirks as she sees the opportunity and doesn't even think twice about the intrusive thoughts. "Hey Fujimaru, allow me to hold your stuff and you go across first!" She says, and Fujimaru just plops the stuff in her hands and steps on the log. 

 

"Okay!"

 

"oH GOD, DAMMIT!" Sith thinks to herself. "Why is he so trusting?!" she thinks as Fujimaru begins to walk across the log bridge and... Baobhan simply... Presses her foot to the back of his ankle and Fujimaru falls over into the stream.

 

"aAH!" Fujimaru yells as he becomes submerged in the water. He should have... Probably... Saw this coming. Of course, he had put his whole trust in the Faerie. But alas... Here he is with Tristan of the Stream.

 

"Blub blub blub?" Fujimaru asks. (Translation: "Tristan of the stream, what is your wisdom?")

 

Tristan looks at the Master of Chaldea (Why is he not at Hotel Bristan?). "Blub blub blub," he answers. (Translation: "Get your own stream?")

 

Fujimaru finally comes back up and catches his breath, watching Baobhan Sith laugh her ass off.

 

"You should have seen your face- AHH!" Baobhan started to say before Fujimaru grabs her ankle and pulls her into the stream as well. "h-HEY! What was that for?! Now all of our stuff is wet!"

 

"You know exactly what it was for," Fujimaru says, bringing her in for a kiss. The Faerie smiles at him and places her hands on his chest as she accepts his kiss. She still is pretty bad at kissing, but that's okay. Fujimaru doesn't ca-

 

"gET YOUR OWN STREAM!" Tristan says, popping out of the water.

 

"R-Right!" Fujimaru says as the two disconnect from each other, flustered

 

"S-Sorry, teacher!" Baobhan Sith says.

 

---

 

The two finally get back to the Rain Witch's Hut. Drenched clothes are immediately discarded, and the trinkets that were bought lie on the table as the two sloppily make out. The plan was to get cleaned up and cuddle the rest of the night. But with Fujimaru simply holding the girl's hand... They didn't make it much further from the doorway. Their drenched clothes and bathing suits didn't last more than a second. They were practically tearing them off like savage animals.

 

Baobhan's back hits the wall as Fujimaru holds her hips, and her hands hold his face.  She is absolutely soaking up the attention as Fujimaru continues to lay kisses on her lips and face. She moans at the contact, and the moan becomes a yelp of surprise as Fujimaru's hand reaches her dripping folds.

 

"So wet already..." Fujimaru comments in a whisper as he simply begins to graze over her, wanting womanhood. Sith lets out a whine, and he smirks at her. "So needy..." He says and feels Baobhan's hand grab his wrist tightly. 

 

"Touch me already..." Sith says, and Fujimaru smiles.

 

"Your wish is my command," The Master says as his fingers enter her. Baobhan gasps as she feels his fingers begin to thrust into her pussy, and she presses herself against him. Her hips begin to press into him as she slowly starts to unravel. 

 

Fujimaru continues to leave the Faerie kisses on her neck as she leans her head back on the wall, as he continues to thrust his fingers into her folds. "M... More... More..." is all Baobhan Sith moans as her hand reaches up to her breast and grabs her areola and begins to pinch and pull at it, adding to the pleasure. 

 

"You're insatiable..." Fujimaru whispers as he continues to thrust into her, and all Sith can do is breathe out moans.

 

The pleasure builds to a breaking point, and the Faerie bites down on the man's shoulder as she cums all over his fingers. Her legs buckle, and all she can do is clamp down on Fujimaru.

 

"oW!" Fujimaru yells as Baobhan's teeth pierce the skin of his shoulder and begin to draw blood as he holds her up. "Owowowow!" 

 

Baobhan finally stops biting Fujimaru as she holds herself up on him. She pants. "Fujimaru..." She whispers as she slowly recovers from her high, and Fujimaru takes his fingers from her and rolls his shoulder from the pain. Sith pants and looks up at Fujimaru with... Desperation and blood on her face and teeth. "Fujimaru... More..."

 

That look sets a fire in Fujimaru. He ignores the blood and pain on his shoulder. None of that matters anymore. "... On the bed," he says almost uncharacteristically quietly.

 

Baobhan didn't even wait a second. She throws herself down onto the bed, and Fujimaru follows. He walks over to her and looks at her. "Don't... Don't keep me-" She didn't even get to finish her sentence before she feels Fujimaru's dick slam into her. "aH!" she yells as her arms scramble to grab something. Anything. Luckily, she finds her Cerrunos pillow and holds onto it for dear life as Fujimaru slams into her again, starting a brutal pace. 

 

"So fucking tight..." Fujimaru mutters as he feels Baobhan's walls clamp around his cock like a vice clamp. 

 

"Ah! Ah!" Baobhan moans as Fujimaru continues to relentlessly slam into her, pushing deeper and deeper. She... She may have bitten off more than she could chew. But... It feels so good!

 

Baobhan Sith slowly starts to become a mumbling mess as Fujimaru cock continues to fill her out. The pleasure washes over her, and she comes again all over his cock, but Fujimaru hardly even cares. He slaps the Faerie's ass, and she lets out a moan as the pain throbs. "Ahhh...!" 

 

Fujimaru continues to abuse the Faerie's pussy as he leans down, squeezes her side, and whispers. "Who do you belong to?" he asks, and Baobhan practically melts. He slaps her ass again after not receiving an answer. "Who..."

 

"Y-You!" Baobhan finally gets out. She can't believe how harshly he's treating her. She's never seen him like this! But on the other hand, she also really likes it. Like, really, really likes it. 

 

"Good," Fujimaru gets out before groaning. "That's fucking right," He says as he grabs her hair tightly. Baobhan moans as she feels him grab her hair and slam into her again. Tears begin to form as he hits her cervix and she arcs her back. The pleasure was starting to overwhelm her as Fujimaru pressed her head into the Cerrunos pillow as he increased his pace like a madman. 

 

PLAP! PLAP! PLAP! SLAP! PLAP!

 

Fujimaru's mind is in overdrive. He can't think straight. He's getting close, and both of them knew it. He feels Sith cum for probably the third time and presses into her with damn near all of his strength, thrusting into her a few more times before reaching his peak. "Fucking, take it!" he screams and hears Baobhan's muffled cries as he fills the Faerie to the brim.

 

"Ha... Ha..." He then releases her hair and side as he pulls out of her. He looks over at the Servant with blood and tears(and probably some snot)smeared all over her face and pillow, and their juices leaking out of her pussy. The sheets and blankets on the bed are an absolute mess. Actually... As Fujimaru's senses of rationality start to return, he starts to see that two people actually left the place in a mess. The Rain Witch is gonna be pissed. "S-Shit... I went... Really overboard..." He says and crawls over to Baobhan. "Are... Are you okay, Baobhan?"

 

Baobhan Sith's mind is pretty much on sabbatical. She gives him a goofy smile and nods. "Mhm..."

 

Fujimaru smiles in relief, seeing she's alright. He scrambles and grabs a few towels and helps clean both of them up. After wiping away the blood and tears (she won't admit it, but snot as well), Fujimaru lies down on his side next to Baobhan and pushes some of the hair from her face. "Sorry..."

 

Baobhan Sith holds his hand gently. "It's okay. How is your shoulder?" 

 

"I patched it up when I grabbed the towels," Fujimaru says, and Baobhan Sith smiles as she scootches to him and pulls the blanket over them.

 

"Good. Sorry about biting you..." The Pretender says as she wraps her arms around him in a hug. Fujimaru hugs her close. "I had a lot of fun today..." She says sleepily. "Thank you..."

 

Fujimaru smiles. "Of course," he says as he kisses her forehead before the two head off to sleepy land.

 

---

The next morning...

 

"Baobhan... I gotta goooo!" Fujimaru says as he tries to get out of bed, but Baobhan is clinging onto him for dear life.

 

"Nooope," Baobhan says as she holds onto him tighter. "You're staying with me for the rest of the week."

 

"I have a concert to go to!"

 

"It better not be with that Country Bumpkin Faerie!"

 

"..."

 

"You're definitely not going now!" Baobhan shouts.

 

"Okay, but how about I spend all Tuesday and Wednesday with you, and tonight we can..." Fujimaru starts to bargain with the Faerie and feels her release him immediately.

 

"Yay!" Sith says as she rolls over onto her stomach and holds his hand. 

 

"I didn't even finish! Aren't you Faerie's supposed to be like, Masters at bargaining?" Fujimaru laughs as he sits up. He looks over at the Faerie as she's kicking her feet. "Hey."

 

"Yeah?" 

 

"I love you," Fujimaru says, and Baobhan gives him a cheeky smile.

 

"Of course you do," She says before looking away. "I love you, too.”

Chapter 3: Dw I'n Dy Garu Di

Summary:

Big thanks to my Welsh mother for correcting my Welsh used in this chapter. They only vaguely know it was used for smut.

Update: They knew it was for smut. I am not as sneaky as I thought I am.

Monday 1530

 

Cnoc Na Riabh, is a special case when it comes to Servants. 

 

Of course, she was partially causing the resets, continuing to push back the start of ServentFes, but that was also Wandjina. And as for most of the Faeries, they couldn't exist outside of Faerie Britain, but thanks to Morgan's authority, she was able to make a few exceptions.

 

As for Cnoc Na Riabh, she is the same person as Medb. The only difference... Is that she doesn't live for love.

 

Well, except...

 

The hotel room is filled with the sounds of sloppy clapping as Fujimaru moans as the queen rides him for everything he's worth. The only thing he can do is watch the jiggling of her perky breasts and hold onto her hand as she has her hand on his chest.

 

We uh... Should probably start from the beginning. 

 

Monday 0700

 

Fujimaru rolls out of his bed at the hotel, ready to actually get to enjoy ServantFes finally. He promised Castoria that they would go to Nobu's concert at the end of the day, after they spent all of their hard-earned QP on all of the fun Doujins. After all, this is their reward for solving the Mystery Case for BB!

 

He walks over to the door, opens it, and sees Castoria standing ready to enjoy the convention. "Hey, Cas! You ready?"

 

"You know it! Let g-"

 

"Not so fast!" The two are interrupted by a blinding light and a woman standing in a doorway. The light is so blinding that they can only see the silhouette of the woman, but they already recognize her voice.

 

Castoria's face grimaces as she already knows what's coming. "I tried getting you as soon as I could so we would miss her, but I wasn't fast enough..."

 

The woman walks towards the two, and they recognize Cnoc Na Riabh in all of her glory. "You thought you could snag him away, did you?" Riabh says with a smig grin, and Castoria looks to the side.

 

"Well... Yeah."

 

"After I told you that I was borrowing him today? I have a lot of shopping to do," Riabh says as Fujimaru watches the two bicker with each other.

 

"Do I uh... Get a say?" Fujimaru says, and the two women look at him for a moment before going back to bickering. On one hand, it's nice to see Cas have her friend back, but on the other hand... The two got along like cats.

 

"Yeah, but we had the whole day planned out before you came barging in-"

 

"-Well, I didn't get to spend the whole event with him like you did-"

 

Fujimaru just deadpans as he picks the Berserker up by her hoodie and pulls her away from her friend before trying to pick a fight with her(As strong as she is, he knew that she unfortunately was at a class disadvantage.)

 

"lEMME AT HER, FUJIMARU! I CAN TAKE HER!"

 

"I don't doubt it, but..." Fujimaru says, and Riabh gives a smug smile. "Alright, alright, how about this. I'll go shopping with Riabh, and then I'll meet up with you for the concert.

 

"... Fine. But we'll go to the convention together tomorrow, right?" Cas asks, and Fujimaru smiles at her. 

 

"Of course!"

 

Riabh puts her hands on her hips. "Good to see at least one of my subjects still has a good head on his shoulders." She says, and Castoria sticks her tongue out at her. "Alright then, let us be off!" 

 

"Alright, I'll see you at 7, okay?" Fujimaru says, and Castoria gives him a thumbs up(She's actually seething).

 

1000

 

Fujimaru is only holding a few bags as the two have only been shopping around a few places.

 

1100 

 

The few bags have now evolved into a few boxes and bags. Which still isn't a problem... Yet.

 

1200 

 

The two have stopped at a restaurant for lunch. Bags and boxes are on the ground, and the reach is above the table level now.

 

"What did you get, Fujimaru?" Riabh asks as she bites into a spam masubi.

 

"Oh, I got some chicken katsu with mac salad," Fujimaru says, smiling at her. "You want some?" 

 

Riabh finishes her bite and smiles at him. "No, I'm fine. But, we should get some malasadas before we leave!" 

 

"Definitely!"

 

1400

 

"What do you think, Fujimaru?" Riabh says as she spins around in a pink yukata with lots of red and white hearts on it.

 

As for Fujimaru, he has been graciously given a little hole to see in between the various boxes and bags of the goodies, trinkets that the queen has acquired. But there is a faint blush that the boxes are hiding. "I-I think it looks really good!" 

 

"Of course it does!" Riabh says, putting her hands on her hips triumphantly.

 

"But... It's kinda hot for that, isn't it?" Fujimaru says, and all of Riabh's pride shatters. 

 

But of course, the queen quickly regains her composure. "Well, I'm just making up for lost time. I know Morgan and Altria have all gotten accustomed to life in Chaldea, and now I need to as well to conduct my queenly duties."

 

Fujimaru laughs. "Alright, fair enough."

 

Riabh smiles at the Master and then sees all of the boxes and bags. "Alright, let me get changed, and we'll be on our way. I think I have just enough... For now, at least. Let's drop these off at my room, and I'll return you to Altria."

 

1500

 

"I do appreciate you helping out today," Riabh says as Fujimaru finishes setting the last of the boxes in her luxurious room of the hotel. Barghest had commented how the rooms seemed cramped, but the rooms always seemed so big to Fujimaru. They were far fancier than the ones he'd been to before he joined Chaldea and even visited in his journeys. 

 

"It's no problem, really!" Fujimaru says as he finally regains feeling in his free arms. "You may have to face the wrath of Cas, though."

 

A smile forms on Riabh's face at the mention of their friend. "I think I shall survive. I do appreciate you always being there for her, through," She says, looking through the bags as if she's looking for something.

 

"Of course, she's like, my best friend. Aside from Mash, Fujimaru says, scratching the back of his head.

 

"Wait, you and Mash aren't together?" 

 

"Oh no, we're just best friends! If I wanted to be with anyone, it'd be with y..." Fujimaru's face goes red as he looks to the side, as he was about to confess his growing crush on the woman in front of him.

 

(Castoria: STAY STRONG FUJIMARU, DON'T FALL PRY TO HER SEDUCTION!)

 

Riabh had, in fact, not even been trying to seduce the Master. She didn't even notice his blush or slip of the words. She really just wanted to go on a date with him since just about everyone else had gotten the chance to do so this summer. Even Blackbeard had gotten to hang out with him!

 

So it was her turn. Hence, she had him be her personal subject to carry her bags. That's how dates go, right? 

 

(Ishtar(Rin): *Gives her a thumbs up*)

 

That's why she had even paid for his meal. What else could she give him... Ah. 

 

"Well, I had a BLAST!" Fujimaru says as he starts to walk towards the door before he makes a fool of himself.

 

"Fujimaru, wait," Riabh says as she picks up her bow and violin. "Allow me to repay you for helping me today."

 

"Ah, it's fine, reall-" Fujimaru says as he stumbles over his words and Riabh shoots him a look and he shuts up.

 

Riabh takes a moment to breathe as she attunes herself with the spirits and her magic. She begins to play, and the room is filled with the sound of the music. Fujimaru's eyes light up as he watches the beauty play in front of him. The lights almost dim around them as if it's just a spot-light on both of them, and he can see a glow from Riabh's movements from her bow. He continues to watch her as she continues to play her heart out for him.

 

Right now... Nowhere else exists. Nothing else matters. The Bleached Earth. The Concert at 7. Why Oberon stole Cas's hoodie. Right now, it's just the two of them.

 

Riabh finishes her performance, and Fujimaru has to take a moment to recover from looking like a lovesick puppy. Riabh sets her violin and bow down and looks up at him. "So, what did yo-" She is cut off by Fujimaru getting close to her.

 

"Forgive me, your Majesty," Fujimaru whispers as he places his hand on her hip and kisses her. 

 

Riabh's eyes widen as her face goes red for a moment. "I DIDN'T EVEN USE ANY SEDUCTION MAGIC, WHAT THE HELL?!" She thinks to herself. But the kiss does feel nice, and the taste of chocolate and sugar from the malasadas lingers between the two.

 

Fujimaru's face turns red again as he breaks away from the kiss. "S-Sorry. I just... I thought that-"

 

"Hmph," is all that comes out of Riabh's mouth. 

 

"Did... Did you just click your tongue at me?!"

 

"It's about time you decided to make up your mind," Riabh says as she pushes the man onto the couch behind him. "Are you like this with all of your other lovers? A blubbering fool of a subject?"

 

Fujimaru's mind goes into a panic as he's pushed onto the bed. "The risk I took was calculated... But man, am I bad at math." He thinks to himself as the Faerie climbs onto him. She's absolutely going to eat him up.

 

"I'm going to sample all of the delights of your world... Including you."

 

And yeah, that should catch us up.

 

Music no longer fills the room. It's now filled with the sound of a creaking couch and a master who is being ridden for all he's worth. Fujimaru ignited a flame that he isn't going to be able to put out. 

 

Clothes had been discarded and flung about throughout the room as kisses had been shared. 

 

Neither party wasted time with foreplay. Riabh took the Master then and there. Man, you'd think Fujimaru would put up more of a fi-AHHHH!

 

A flip-flop goes flying at the window with divine precision.

 

"H-Huh? Why'd you stop?" Fujimaru asks with a goofy smile.

 

Riabh shakes her head. "I saw a bug. Never mind that..."

 

Outside the Hotel...

 

"Hmm?" Barghest hums as she finds a lost sandal on the beach. She looks up at the hotel windows. "Someone must have thrown this... I'll see if I can return it to its owner." 

 

All the while, a certain Dark Faerie Prince makes his getaway.

 

"Man, that was SO CLOSE."

 

Meanwhile, back in the hotel room...

 

Cnoc Na Riabh grabs the legs of the Master underneath her as she positions herself between them and grinds against him. 

 

In most cases, Fujimaru would put up more of a fight. But Riabh is clay in this woman's hands. 

 

The Faerie places her thumb into his mouth as she slowly takes the man and his length. Fujimaru absolutely melts at the touch, and his head leans back against the wall. "Oh my g..." He can hardly get out, and the queen on him grabs his ankle and begins to set the pace again.

 

"Ha... Yes...!" Riabh moans as she continues to ride Fujimaru. His hip slaps against hers as she rolls into him. Fujimaru's hands grip her ankles as he watches her breasts bounce as she continues to bounce on his dick. 

 

"Haha!" Riabh laughs as she feels Fujimaru's dick slam into her again and again. Watching him with her fingers in his mouth as he moans her name and lets out soft moans as she sends herself into a frenzy as she feels her orgasm approach.

 

On Fujimaru's end, he's LUCKY he's held out this long. "Cnoc... Cnoc..." He moans, and Riabh raises an eyebrow as her other hand grips his thigh.

 

"It's your Majesty..." Riabh says as she pulls him into a kiss and continues to roll her hips into him and that's as much as Fujimaru was going to be able to take. The floodgates unleash as he holds onto her ankles for dear life, as he fills her completely.

 

Riabh smiles in the kiss as she feels him fill her, and she follows suit shortly after. She releases his lips and arcs her neck back as she orgasms all over his cock. The lay panting in each other's embrace for a moment before she releases him from her hold, wraps her arms around his neck, and places her forehead in the crook of his neck. "Riabh...?" Fujimaru whispers as he wraps his arms around her in a hug.

 

"Thank you... For allowing me to have a sample of you..." Riabh finally responds in a whisper as she places a gentle kiss on his neck.

 

"Of course, your Majesty," Fujimaru says. "I lo-" He starts to say and is cut off by Cnoc Na Riabh placing a finger on his lips. 

 

"Let's wait until you restore and save the world first," Riabh says and then places a kiss on his lips. "Then we can start our kingdom together." She says, and then she slips out of his grasp.

 

Fujimaru smiles at her promise and then holds up his pinky. "I promise."

 

Cnoc Na Riabh squints at him. "You're just like her," She says and then entangles with her pinky before breaking away and picking up his shorts from across the room and throws them at him. "You better not keep her waiting. Enjoy the rest of your time here, because the moment this dream fades, we have a lot of work to do," She says and starts putting her clothes on.

 

Fujimaru laughs as he puts his shorts on. "Yes, ma'am." 

 

A few weeks later...

 

"Hey, Shishou," Fujimaru says as he sits down with Scathach at a table in the cafeteria after a training session. "You have any idea what this is?" He says as he pulls out a carved wooden spoon that has intricate designs on the handle.

 

The Lancer takes the spoon and looks at the spoon. "Well, my dear student, it's a spoo..." She starts to say, before her words trail off as she reads three words that have been carved into the side of the spoon.

 

Cú walks over to the table and sits next to Fujimaru. "This seat taken? Thanks." He asks, not to waiting for Fujimaru to respond. "Whatcha got there, Teacher?" he asks as he takes Fujimaru's sandwich and takes a bite.

 

Scathach ignores her former student and looks at Fujimaru. "Where did you get this?"

 

"oH SHIT!" Cú says with a mouthful of food and yoinks the spoon.

 

"It was in my shorts pocket. I found it after..." Fujimaru's face goes red as he explains where he got the spoon. "Uhm. I found it in my shorts after ServantFes." 

 

"Haha!" Cú says as he looks over the spoon. 

 

"It... Would be wise to find out who gave it to you." Scathach says.

 

"Why?" Fujimaru asks, BEGGING one of these two to stop being so cryptic.

 

"Oh ho, allow me to explain," Cú says as he wraps his arm around Fujimaru and pats the spoon on Fujimaru's chest. "This here is a bonafied love spoon."

 

"A whatnow?" Fujimaru asks, still even more lost. 

 

Scathach sighs. "They're often a gift given to lovers, especially in Welsh culture. And what's carved into it, "Grá go Deo", is the nail on the head."

 

"That's Welsh for "Forever Love"," Cú explains, and Fujimaru's face goes red.

 

There's only one Celt who could've... Unless all of this is some cruel prank by Medb. 

 

It could be, but this all feels too personal. Plus, she left ServantFes weeks before the end, and he had hardly seen her.

 

Which only leaves...

 

FLASHBACK!

 

Cnoc Na Riabh picks Fujimaru's shorts off the floor and throws them at him. "Now go on, Castoria was raving about that concert being put on by Nobu," She says, and Fujimaru catches the shorts, not noticing the spoon she had slipped into the pocket.  

 

FLASHBACK END!

 

"But she said this was a one-time thing??" Thinks to himself as he looks off in the distance and sees Cnoc Na Riabh and Castoria getting lunch and talking to each other. Riabh catches Fujimaru looking at her, completely ignores him, and goes back to talking to Cas. Fujimaru does feel a little disheartened, but... It was a one-time thing after all. 

 

"Welp. Good luck with all of that," Cú says as he leaves the spoon in Fujimaru's collar and walks off with the soda Fujimaru had been drinking. 

 

While Fujimaru and Scathach get up to go back to training, Riabh smiles as she watches Fujimaru walk off. "Mae gennych fy nghalon..." She whispers under her breath with a little bit of a blush. 

 

"Huh, did you say something?" Castoria says, looking at her friend. 

 

"No, of course not. Now, back to the topic at hand..." Riabh says with a smile.

 

Well, I'll be damned. The queen may not live for love, but she at least loves one of her subjects.

Chapter 4: I Really Wanna Stay In Your Room

Summary:

You Are My Star is the last time I wrote for Fujimaru/Castoria and is my oldest work that hasn't been updated or gotten another chapter.

Time to fix that.

So, there's a segment here where a certain Master of Humanity and a pesky Faerie come and yell at me. A flip-flop was thrown. Words were said. I do not want to get into it. So we're skipping that part.

 

Oh c'mon! You know you wanna tell it. 

 

Nope.

 

C'moooooo-

 

Monday 1930

 

"IGNITE THE DRIVE (DRIVE) WITHIN YOUR SOUL!" Nobbu screams into the mic as she performs a concert for the various servants who have gathered to hear her performance. "IT'S CALLING YOOOOOU!" Nobbu yells into the mic with a death metal voice as she points at the crowd.

 

Most people wouldn't say that Nobbu is such a great singer. Most of the servants would have advised Castoria against going to the concert. But... Altria Caster wanted to go to it with Fujimaru. She had a whole list of things she wanted to do before the end of summer, which she had made at the beginning of this singularity. But the investigation had come first thanks to a certain Moon Cancer. 

 

(BB: : P)

 

Things happened one after another, and then it came to the end of this dream. It was all going to end all too soon. But thanks to some conniving by her other self, Avalon, she has another week! 

 

So, after Castoria and Fujimaru gave Oberon a piece of their mind, the two quickly started making plans for what to do with the rest of the week. Of course, he still had a few things left to settle, and obviously, he couldn't spend all of the week with just her, but it's better than nothing. Ultimately, they came to the decision to come to this concert.

 

"ARE YOU HAVING FUN?!" Fujimaru asks Castoria.

 

"I CAN'T HEAR A SINGLE THING!" Castoria yells back at him as she jumps and throws her hand into the air.

 

"THEN YOU'RE DOING IT RIGHT!" Fujimaru yells back as he headbangs along to the music.

 

"RUB-A-DUB-DUB!" Nobbu sings, and Castoria looks over at Fujimaru, having the time of his life, and smiles.

 

The concert ends, and it's gotten quite late, so the two hop on a bus to head back to the hotel.

 

"Man, she actually isn't that great at singing," Fujimaru laughs as Castoria and he sit at the back of the bus.

 

"Yeah, I was warned she's pretty bad," Castoria says. "But I had a lot of fun! It was fun watching you headbang! We should go again!"

 

"I'll see if Idol X will put one on sometime!" Fujimaru says and smiles at Castoria. A comfy silence fills the bus as they watch the sights out the window of the bus. 

 

Castoria watches Fujimaru as he's looking out the window and looks down at his hand on the seat between them. 

 

"I'm really glad I got to come here with him..." She thinks to herself as she places her hand beside his, with her pinky touching his.

 

"Oh, I think a shot of a movie was filmed he-" Fujimaru starts to say before he feels Castoria's fingers on his and he looks at her as she is looking at the floor of the bus with the look she gets when she's flustered. Who can blame her? The blush on Fujimaru's face proves he's just as flustered.

 

The Master moves his hand away to save the poor girl. 

 

The Berserker looks sad for a moment at Fujimaru moving his hand. "daMMIT! I FINALLY WORKED THE COURAGE TO DO THIS AND NOW YOU'RE BEING SO NICE!" she thinks to herself, but takes a breath. "Put your hand back..." she whispers, and Fujimaru sets his hand back down. She places her pinky and ring finger on the Master's hand. She then began to play and fidget with the top of his hand. 

 

"Is... Is this a game?" Fujimaru asks, confused, but watching her play with his hand and a slight blush on her cheeks is really cute. 

 

"Nope..." Castoria whispers. "Just... Touching you..." Eventually, she sets her hand on his, and the comfy silence returns as Fujimaru turns his hand around to interlock their fingers.

 

Sweat begins to form between their palms, but neither of them cares. 

 

The bus arrives at the Waikiki hotel, and the two get off and head to their rooms. They begin walking down the hallway, and Castoria's pace slows as they arrive in front of her room.

 

"W-Well, I-I had a lot of fun today!" Castoria says, looking to the side, once again with that flustered look on her face. "T-Thank you again. I'll um..."

 

Fujimaru smiles as he lets go of her hand. "I had a great time too. But, um... Cas, do you have something you want to ask?"

 

"W-WHHHAA?? Nooo??" She says, obviously lying.

 

Fujimaru calls her bluff. "Okay," He shrugs and starts to turn away and walk to his room. "I'm really tired, so I'm going to be-"

 

"wAIT!" Castoria says as she grabs his hand to stop him. "Fujimarudoyouwannaspen- Mmhf!"

 

Cas doesn't even finish before Fujimaru leans down and kisses her on the lips. "Heck yeah, I do," he says, and Castoria's face goes red as a tomato. 

 

"This cunt(affectionate) beat me to it!!" goes through Castoria's mind as she tries to recover. "I'm so.. Happy," She gets out before shaking her head and fully recovering. "Okay! Just give me a minute, alright?" She asks, and Fujimaru nods. She quickly runs into her room and lets out a squeal of happiness. "yAYYY!"

 

"Hey, uh, Cas?" Fujimaru says through the door.

 

"Y-Yeah?" Castoria asks. 

 

"I can still hear you," Fujimaru says. "But that was really cute!" He adds reassuringly.

 

Castoria's face goes red again from embarrassment for the second time. She shakes her head again and twirls around to tidy up her room until...

 

"What the heck?" Castoria says deadpanned as she sees that... Instead of the two beds in her hotel room... There are twenty. All stacked and everywhere in the room. "HOW DID THIS EVEN HAPPEN?!"

 

I have no idea.

 

"Hey, uh... Fujimaru?"

 

"What's up?" 

 

Castoria opens the door and gestures for him to walk in. He does, and then his face goes deadpanned. "Was it... Like this when you left it this morning?"

 

"No."

 

"Okay... Uh... This is okay, we can go to mine, if you want!" Fujimaru offers, ever so quick to think on his feet.

 

"Really? You're okay with that?" Cas asks, and Fujimaru smiles at her.

 

"Yeah!" 

 

"Okay!"

 

After squeezing in between the mattresses to grab some spare clothes and shoving them into a back pack, the two go across the hall to his room. Fujimaru plays around with the key and finally gets the door open finally. They start to walk in and both stare at the room deadpanned. Honestly, they should have seen this coming after the incident in her room, but it's very much the same story. The room is filled with mattresses. Too many mattresses. 

 

"WHAT KIND OF SICK TWISTED PLOT DEVICE IS THIS?!" Castoria shouts.

 

"Yeah, it's weird that it's in both of our rooms..." Fujimaru says as he squeezes in between the matresses to grab some spare clothes as well. "But it's okay! Let's just talk to Jekyll and Morded for a new room!" he says as he comes out of the room.

 

Castoria is very suspicious of all of this. Whoever is behind this is going to get a stern talking to. It's almost like they SHOULDN'T HAVE THROWN A FLIP FLOP AT MY HEAD!

 

The two head down to the front desk. And see Jekyll reading a doujin and Mordred spinning around in a spinny chair.

 

"Oh, hello, Master," Jekyll says when he sees Fujimaru and Castoria. "How can we help you?" He asks, grabbing the back of Mordred's seat and stopping her from spinning. 

 

"Oh, 'sup, Master! 'Sup, Manny!" Mordred says while trying to rebalance herself. "I appreciate you keeping us employed for the week! I can use the QP on EMIYA's knock-off Burger King!"

 

Fujimaru's face scrunches up when he hears those words. "Why would you..." Right. King's in the name. "Anyway, we need a new room. A lot of mattresses just appeared in both of our rooms. We uh... Can't sleep with all of them."

 

"Huh. That's weird... But okay! Two rooms, String Bean!" Mordred says, and Castoria nearly throws herself at the desk.

 

"One room, please! One." Castoria says, and Jekyll raises an eyebrow. 

 

"Uhm..." Jekyll starts to say something, but Fujimaru interrupts him.

 

"We're having a sleepover!" Fujimaru says excitedly, trying to play this off. "Gonna order pizza, paint our nails, gossip..." He lists off and could hear Castoria's stomach growl at the pizza comment. 

 

"Oh, I get it!" Mordred says excitedly. "You gonna invite Mash and Yaraändoo? I can call Gareth if ya want?"

 

"No, it's okay..." Castoria says, and Mordred just shrugs. 

 

"Aight, one room String Bean!"

 

Jekyll clears his throat. "I can't do that."

 

"WHAT?/WHY NOT?!" Castoria and Mordred shout.

 

"Okay, one, it's really late. Don't shout," Jekyll says. "Two, as I've been trying to explain, because of Nobbu's concert, all of our rooms have been taken."

 

"Noooo..." Castoria says as she slumps onto the desk in defeat. 

 

"I'm really sorry," Jekyll apologizes. "But, I can get Mordred to move the mattresses out of your rooms! That'll get her to burn some energy off."

 

"hEY!"

 

"But, I can't say how long that will take," Jekyll explains, and Castoria melts onto the desk in a puddle of tears.

 

Then Fujimaru remembers something. "No, it's okay! I appreciate it. But if we could get the mattresses taken out... At some point? That would be nice. I can help, too," He says and takes Castoria's hand. "Come on." He says, and they walk out of the hotel.

 

"Where are we going?" Castoria says, her eyes puffy from the tears.

 

"I have a room at Hotel Bristan," Fujimaru says, and Castoria's eyes light up. 

 

"We're saved!" Castoria says excitedly until she remembers. "Wait. Morgan's there."

 

"It'll be okay!" Fujimaru says. "We'll stop and get a pizza on the way."

 

"Okay!" Castoria says. That's clearly what won her over.

 

---

A quick trip to Hotel Bristan, later...

 

"I am so sorry, Master, but the entity of your floor has been obliterated," Barghest explains as Castoria and Fujimaru stand at the desk of the hotel. "Queen Morgan... Saw a single beetle and cast Rhongomyniad at it and... Destroyed the entire floor..."

 

Castoria was doing better now that she had some food in her stomach. But after facing another setback... She already didn't like the idea of coming here. But she was also exhausted. 

 

"Do you have any spare rooms?" Fujimaru asks, clearly feeling the rage radiating off of Castoria. 

 

"No... Unfortunately, we sold out thanks to Nobbu's concert," Barghest explains, and Fujimaru has to hold Castoria back as he nearly sees her summon her swords. "But! Queen Morgan had a room set aside for you when she destroyed the floor earlier."

 

"Yayyyy!" Castoria says defeatedly as Fujimaru holds her hood like holding a cat by the scruff of their neck. "Thanks, Baggie," she says, and Barghest smiles at her.

 

"It is not a problem, just be sure to not eat our reserve of food on your next shift," Barghest says as she hands Fujimaru the key to his new room. 

 

"'Kaaay," Castoria says as Fujimaru sets her down.

 

"Thanks again, Barghest. Get some rest!" Fujimaru says, and Barghest gives a bow as they walk off. 

 

They get to the room with no interruptions. Castoria plops down onto the bed. "Man, these rooms are so big!"

 

"Yeah, they're the biggest hotel rooms I've ever been in," Fujimaru says as he takes his shoes off and plops down onto the other bed. "Sucks, my other room got destroyed. But at least it all worked out in the end," he says and starts getting under his blanket.

 

Castoria looks over at him, kind of disappointed he's in the other bed. Man, the number of beds in this story seems to be the issue. "Yeah..." she responds, getting under her own blanket. 

 

"Well, I had a lot of fun today. I'm sure you're exhausted," Fujimaru says, smiling at Castoria. 

 

"Y-Yeah... We should change." Castoria says and Fujimaru nods. He turns around and takes off his shirt and Castoria's face goes red as she realizes he's changing in front of her. She quickly turns around and calms down as she starts to change as well. She does take a peak behind her and sees his butt. She quickly turns back around and covers her face in embarrassment. If anyone was looking, they would see steam coming off of the girl's face. Some one save this poor girl.

 

The two eventually finish changing and crawl into their beds. "Goodnight, Cas." He says and turns off the lights. 

 

"... Yeah... Goodnight... Fujimaru..." Castoria says quietly, and silence fills the room. Castoria's arm hangs off the side of the bed, wishing she could continue holding his hand just as she did earlier today. And maybe kiss him some more.

 

She can't see it, but Fujimaru's hand is hanging off the side of the bed, as he wishes he could hold her hand.

 

Thirty minutes pass. Fujimaru can hear that Castoria's breathing hasn't changed. She hasn't moved and sprawled out on the bed like she always does. She isn't snoring loudly like she always does.

 

Castoria knows Fujimaru isn't asleep. He isn't mumbling in his sleep as he always does. He hasn't moved an inch.

 

"... Fujimaru?" Castoria whispers as she furrows her brow. She was given this extra chance... She isn't going to waste it.

 

"... Yeah?" 

 

"You... Don't hafta sleep over there if you don't wanna," Castoria whispers as she looks over at his bed. She doesn't get a response, but hears Fujimaru slip out of his bed and climb into hers. He awkwardly climbs over her, and she lets out a few giggles.

 

The two have never really slept together like this. Fujimaru had accompanied her on her pilgrimage throughout Faerie Britain, and they had shared tents and taken naps together... But it was never like this.

 

Feeling Fujimaru hold onto her... Feels right. She interlocks her fingers with his and lets out a happy hum.

 

"... Sorry," Fujimaru says. "I... Didn't want you to feel uncomfortable."

 

Castoria laughs again. "It's more uncomfy without you, silly." She says as she leans into him.

 

"Okay, I'm glad..." Fujimaru says quietly as he kisses her cheek. "... hey, Cas?"

 

"Yeah?" Castoria responds. 

 

"You wanna do..." Finally taking the initiative, Fujimaru starts to ask, but Castoria interrupts him by kissing him. 

 

The Berserker holds his hand to her beating heart. "I've always wanted to." She answers. This was, in fact, on her list of things she wanted to do. Of course, it was only if he shared the same feelings. And he does! Score. "But if we keep this up, we're never going to get any sleep..." She says as she begins to slip off her underwear.

 

Fujimaru follows suit, and he can feel the woman's hand reach back and begin to stroke his growing member. He hears a little squeak from her as she touches it. "Aah... That's okay... We can sleep in... I don't have any other plans..." Fujimaru lets out a breath and leans his head on her shoulder. Both of them have callouses on their hands, but Castoria's touch is much more gentler than his despite her being a Berserker.

 

Castoria finally got over the initial embarrassment and shock of touching Fujimaru's member and finally cleared her head. "No... Plans?"

 

"I mean... Other than spending the rest of my time with you... Ha..." Fujimaru barely gets out. "Your... Your hand..."

 

"Yeah?" Castoria whispers and leans her head back and kisses him. "I'm glad..." She whispers. "Ready..." 

 

"Mhm..." Fujimaru says as he reads her intentions loud and clear as she removes her hand from his member. His hand reaches down and rubs her dripping womanhood a few times, getting a few moans from her mind as it goes to static. He begins to rub his shaft against her womanhood before entering her. 

 

"Ah...!" Castoria moans quietly until he fully sheathes himself into her. "Ah!" She yelps, and Fujimaru holds her for a few moments. 

 

"S-Sorry..." Fujimaru whispers as he holds her in a hug, as he feels her shudder. 

 

"F-Fine... It's fine..." Castoria says as she adjusts to his size. It takes a few moments before she leans her head back and kisses him. "R-Ready..."

 

""Kay..." Fujimaru's hands reach up for her breasts and hold them gently as his hips slowly crash into hers. Moans escape from both of them as they get into a rhythm

He presses a kiss into Castoria's neck. She absolutely eats it up. "Hey, Cas... What's been your favorite memory this summer?" He asks and presses a kiss into her shoulder.

 

"Aside from today...?" Castoria says as she tries to concentrate, but the slapping of hips is making it hard. "Yelling at Oberon was fun..."

 

"Heh..." Fujimaru lets out a laugh between and a moan. "We do that anyway..."

 

"Fair..." Castoria tries to sort her mind and feels a nibble on her neck. An orgasm begins to wash over her. "Ah...! Right there... That felt good..." She moans, and Fujimaru leaves love bites on her neck. "I... I had fun shopping with... Yaraändoo... And wearing that bunny outfit was fun..." Castoria moans as she tilts her head back onto Fujimaru's neck.

 

Fujimaru smirks at the bunny suit comment. "You were very cute..." He whispers as he continues to thrust into her.

 

"What... What about you...?"

 

"I had fun with all of it!" Fujimaru says and brings his face to Castoria's. "But this has been the best day... Ever." He says right before kissing her.

 

Castoria melts into the kiss, moaning into it as she feels his tongue enter her mouth. She lets out a gasp as she wraps her arm around his head. Pleasure washes over her again as she cums all over his cock as he continues to piston in and out of her. 

 

Castoria's mind goes blank with how good the pleasure feels with him thrusting into her sensitive core. Her tongue dances with his as they continue to make out, but at this point, Fujimaru is leading the dance. She feels his manhood throb inside her, and she enjoys every second of it.

 

"Cas..." Fujimaru breaks away from the kiss to try to warn her and catch his breath.  He only gets a kiss before Castoria captures his lips again. He thrusts into her a final time before he holds onto her tightly and orgasms.

 

The two lie still as they pant and catch their breath. A few moments pass, and Fujimaru starts to try to climb out of the bed to try and clean them up until he hears a loud snore from the Berserker. He lies back down and cuddles up to her closely. 

 

The master closes his eyes and kisses her neck. "I love you, Cas..." he says as he starts to drift to sleep.

 

"Mmmlove youu... Too..." Castoria mumbles before snoring again.

 

Altria Caster's List of things she wants to do:

 

Go shopping with Cnoc Na Riabh

Kick Morgan's butt

Hold Fujimaru's hand <3

Kick Oberon's butt

Go to a concert

Go to the beach with Gareth

Kiss Fujimaru <3

Chapter 5: Sea Salt and Banana Bread

Summary:

This totally isn't the longest chapter for... Reasons. (Barghest totally isn't my favorite, I have no idea what you're on about.)

Tuesday morning

 

"Uggghh... So... Sore..." Fujimaru groans as he rolls out of his bed at Hotel Bristan. He had spent the last few days running errands. On Friday, he had to stop all of the Cerrunos' to make sure ServantFes went on without a hitch, per BB's request. AND THEN save Cnoc Na Riabh. After all of that, he went to the convention, AND then he and Castoria went to yell at a certain...(Very innocent) Dark Faerie Prince. On Saturday, he had been personally tasked by Morgan to show Baobhan Sith around the island. On Sunday, he helped Blackbeard get his newly acquired shipload of doujins transferred to Chaldea to his storeroom of gold. On Monday, he was tasked to be Cnoc Na Riabh's servant and carry all of her bags and boxes most of the day. Although it did remind him of when his mother would go on shopping sprees with his father, and he would carry bags and boxes around for her. And after being Cnoc Na Riabh's servant, he went to a concert with Castoria. Of course, that wasn't a chore or an errand, but by that point, he was completely exhausted. When he got back to Hotel Bristan that night, he plopped down onto his bed and passed out immediately.

 

"How can one woman buy so many clothes..." Ritsuka whispers, rubbing his sore arms as he goes down on the elevator to the breakfast buffet. He grabs his plateful of food and finds Mash sitting at a table with Habetrot.

 

"Good morning, senpai!" Mash beams and Fujimaru smiles at her.

 

"Hey Mash," Fujimaru says and begins to eat his food. 

 

"Are you alright?" Mash asks as she looks at the very sore and tired Master.

 

"It's been a long week," Fujimaru says as he takes a bite of some bacon.

 

Barghest walks over to the table and begins to fill their cups with tea and coffee. "Good morning, Barghest!" Fujimaru says, smiling up at her. Mash blinks at how Fujimaru spruces up at the sudden appearance of the Faerie Knight.

 

"No way, he did a complete 180! Does senpai like... Barghest?!" Mash thinks to herself.

 

"Good morning, Master," Barghest says as she sets some creamer and sugar on the table. "I hope everything is to your liking."

 

"It is, thank you!" Fujimaru answers and takes a bite of his toast, and then realizes something. "Hey, Barghest, have you taken a day off?" He asks with a look of concern on his face.

 

Barghest's face flushes for a moment before smiling. She hadn't expected him to ask her that. "I have not."

 

"Wait, really?!" Mash says, looking at her. 

 

"That's not good!" Habetrot says as she hops up onto her chair.

 

"Have no worry, My Lord. I am a Servant and the Faerie Knight Barghest," Barghest smiles at Mash and Fujimaru. "And don't think I haven't seen how hard you've been working, Fujimaru."

 

"Don't worry about me," Fujimaru gets up and places his hands on his hips. "This won't do!"

 

"senPAI??" Mash says, and Habetrot squints at Fujimaru as she slowly starts to catch on.

 

"M-Master??" Barghest asked, very surprised at Fujimaru's outburst. 

 

"Barghest, what would you do if you had the day off?" Fujimaru asks with a serious look.

 

"I get it now..." Habetrot says quietly.

 

"Get what??" Mash whispers to Habetrot.

 

"I'll tell you when you're older," Habbycat says playfully, and Mash frowns at her.

 

Barghest takes a moment to process the question. She really hadn't considered what she would do with a day off. Of course... It would be nice, but she also hates not working... Helping and serving others... "Oh! I took some courses with Beni Enma to learn how to cook. I would like to repay her, so I could take a few shifts at he-" 

 

"That's still work!" Fujimaru says as he interrupts her.

 

Barghest is fully flustered now. What has him so fired up?? "Uhm... Going swimming would be nice... But! My Lord, I assure you, I do not need a day off," Barghest says as she starts to calm down. "I still need to tend to the forest after breakfast an-"

 

"Faerie Knight Barghest, I demand you take a day off," Queen Morgan says behind her. How long had she been there?!

 

"Y-Your Majesty?!" Barghest yells, completely flustered again.

 

"You have worked very diligently this vacation, but it is time for you to take care of yourself," Morgan says as she sits between Mash and Fujimaru. "I shall send Altria Caster to the forest in your place." 

 

"hEY, YOU CAN'T JUST VOLUNTELL ME TO DO STUFF!" Castoria yells from across the room. "I'M NOT EVEN IN THIS STORY!"

 

"It shall be payment for the amount of food you have eaten here," Morgan explains, and Castoria melts into a puddle.

 

"I was told it was free... ╥⁠﹏⁠╥"

 

"Anyway, I trust you shall take her to have a good time and make sure she doesn't do any work on her day off, Fujimaru?" Morgan asks as she takes a sip of her tea. 

 

"Yes, ma'am!" Fujimaru says as he salutes the woman.

 

"T-Thank you, your Majesty..." Barghest says quietly. 

 

"Alright, Barghest! Wanna meet me outside in fifteen and we can go swimming?" Fujimaru asks, beaming at her. She nods, completely taken aback and confused about what to do with her newfound free time.

 

"Thank you, Morgan," Fujimaru beams at her. 

 

"Think nothing of it," Morgan says as she takes a sip of her tea. "But do remember to take care of yourself as well."

 

"Will do! Bye Mash! Bye Habbycat!" Fujimaru says as he bolts outside.

 

Habetrot leans on her hand. "Oh, young love~"

 

"L-Love?!" Mash shouts, and Habetrot laughs.

Twentyish minutes later...

 

The two have made their way to the beach outside of Hotel Bristan. Many of the other beachgoers are either playing in the water, building sandcastles, or sunbathing. The Knights of the Round Table have come here to train (play) before they go back to Chaldea. Tristan is lying under an umbrella, while Lancelot, Gareth, and Gawain are all playing in the water. In the distance, a certain dragon is moping in a castle made of sand because her victory in the race was ripped from her at the last second.

 

"Come on, Barghest! Let's go join them!" Fujimaru says as he smiles at the Knight, doing his best not to stare at the Knight's exposed skin as she walks behind him in her bathing suit. Which is really hot. Both physically and literally. 

 

"Yes! Do you think Gawain will allow me to challenge him?" Barghest asks as her eyes shine brightly as she watches Gawain throw Gareth into the water. Fujimaru smiles, seeing her so excited. 

 

The Master looks around the beach, sees some pool noodles, and gets an idea. 

 

Two minutes later...

 

"Come then, Faerie Knight!" Gawain yells as Gareth stands next to him. Ten feet away stand Fujimaru and Barghest. The four of them all have pool noodles in hand. Lancelot is smiling, watching the four of them with Suzuka standing next to him.

 

"I am Barghest, blade of Morgan... I have never known defeat! Let's go, Master!" Barghest yells. Fujimaru nods, and the two rush into a valiant battle.

 

"Aned, sick 'em!" Gareth yells, and the very wet and fluffy white furred puppy omes charging at Fujimaru.

 

"Ah, crud! I forgot about Aned!" Fujimaru yells as the dog tackles him. Barghest is too busy in her clash of pool noodles with Gawain, and Gareth is laughing at Fujimaru, who is licking and playing with him.

 

Barghest and Gawain's duel comes to a draw as both sides are fairly evenly matched. Barghest walks over and picks Fujimaru up, saving him from the cute, adorable ball of fluff and Gareth. "Are you alright, Master? How did you fare?"

 

"I think I took the brunt of the damage," He answers with a face full of slobber. "What about you?"

 

"Good boy! Good boy!" Gareth says as she pets Aned as he licks her face. 

 

"Good, good," Barghest smiles at Fujimaru. "Twas a good duel!" 

 

Meanwhile, Gawain is being tended to by Suzuka and Lancelot. "I don't know how she did it, but she nearly sent me back to the throne..." 

 

Fujimaru smiles at Barghest. "Good! I'm glad!" He says before realizing how Barghest is still holding him. "Uhm... I weigh nothing to you, do I?" He asks as his face goes red.

 

Barghest laughs as she sets him down. "It's like holding a couple of grapes," She says before looking at him. "You really should eat more. Get some more meat on your bones."

 

"Hey! I'm plenty strong! I bet I could pick you up!" Fujimaru says excitedly as he... Actually attempts to pick her up.

 

"I would advise you don- m-mASTE-!" Barghest yells in protest, and everyone around goes silent as they watch the spectacle of the Last Master of Humanity attempt to try to pick up and hold Barghest bridal-style. He manages it for maybe a second before both of them fall into the water. Fujimaru's elbow crashes into Barghest's gut, knocking the wind out of her. She lets out a yelp and, out of habit, immediately grabs his ankle and throws him far into the sky. So far, a little twinkle is seen as he disappears from eyesight. 

 

This, of course, is an exaggeration, but she did throw him very far. 

 

---

 

An hour later, both are walking back to the Waikiki Hotel...

 

Both Barghest and Fujimaru's faces are still red from embarrassment, as Fujimaru had to be saved by Suzuka. She luckily had her bike nearby and was able to get him lickity split. The two decided to call it quits on the swimming adventures before either of them got hurt. 

 

"I'm still really sorry, Master..." Barghest says in a quiet voice as the two walk down the street of shops. Both of us got back in some normal clothes for the most part. Barghest is in a sundress over her swimsuit, but also has her very cute hat on, covering her horns. Fujimaru is back in his regular mystic code.

 

"Why are you sorry? You tried warning me, and I didn't even ask before I tried..." Fujimaru says as he scratches the back of his head. 

 

"You're not hurt too badly, I hope?" Barghest says as she looks at him, concerned.

 

"Nah, I'm just more sore... But that settles it!" Fujimaru says with a smile as he places his fists on his hips.

 

"Eh?" Barghest looks at him, confused. "Settles wha-"

 

"I'm going to get strong enough to be able to pick you up when we get married," Fujimaru says without even skipping a beat. He's clearly thought about this a lot.

 

"M-M-Marriage?!" Barghest stutters as her face gets even more red. "What are you even talking about? I'm simply your Servant, Fujimaru," She says, clearly the only rational one. 

 

"I've never even considered... Fujimaru wants to... He knows about what I did back in Faerie Britain, so how can he accept me? Even want to marry me, no less?!" Barghest thinks to herself. "But... The aspect does sound nice..."

 

"You too deserve love, Barghest," Barghest remembers Morgan saying to her as she would brush Baobhan's hair as she would stand guard. 

 

She smiles at the fond memory as she looks at Fujimaru beaming up at her. "Yeah, marriage! Just 'cause you're my servant doesn't mean I can't marry you...  Unless you don't wanna, of course," he says.

 

"I... Didn't think you thought so far ahead..." Barghest says as she looks down at him.

 

Fujimaru shrugs. "I mean... I don't really make a lot of plans since anything and everything happens at Chaldea. We have the Ordeal Calls to finish... But I still would like to have my wish granted... But, once humanity's saved, I'd like to be with- Oh!" A small grocery store catches his eye as he gets an idea. "I have an idea! I know how I can make it up to you! Wait here." He says as he runs inside. "She didn't say no," he smiles as he thinks to himself.

 

About five minutes later, he came back out of the store with a bag of food and a metal one-use pan. Barghest tilts her head as she looks at him, clearly confused. "What's all of this?"

 

"A surprise. Let's go to my hotel room!" Fujimaru answers, and Barghest shrugs, now going along with Fujimaru's impulses. 

 

The two get to Fujimaru's fairly tidy room, except for the pile of Manga and Doujin in the corner, and another pile of rewards he had obtained during the event.

 

Fujimaru walks over to the oven stove in the little kitchen area of the hotel room and begins to unpack the contents of his newly obtained food. There is a small package of flower, another small package of sugar, a little bottle of vanilla, a package of cinnamon, a small container of sour cream, a couple of salt packet, a box of baking soda, a stick of butter, a pack half dozen eggs, a small pack of chocolate chips, and a couple of overripe bananas. 

 

"What is all of this?" Barghest asks, looking over the objects as Fujimaru pulls out some measuring cups and spoons from a drawer. 

 

"Stuff to make banana bread!" Fujimaru says as he sets the oven to 425°F and takes out a fork.

 

"Is... Is there something I can do to help?" Barghest asks, and Fujimaru smiles at her.

 

"At the moment, stand there and be cute, okay?" He says, and she blushes. "In a second, I will, though, okay?" He says, and she nods as she watches him get to work. He starts adding all of the dry ingredients into a bowl and begins to mix them. He then unwraps the butter, puts it into a bowl, and hands it to Barghest. "Hold this for me for a few."

 

Barghest looks at the butter, confused, and then continues to watch him mix all of the wet ingredients together. "Where... Did you learn to bake, Fujimaru?"

 

"Oh, I um... I have always wanted to be a baker," He admits with a little bit of a blush as he looks to the side. "My dad taught me how to cook. I'd... Like to open my own pastry shop one day..." He says, remembering how his father would let him and his sister cook and assist him in the kitchen. He smiles at the memory as he finishes mixing all of the wet ingredients. 

 

"That's... Actually, really sweet..." Barghest says quietly. "Back in Faerie Britain, the Faeries knew how to cook, obviously, and they did make some foods well..." 

 

"I remember that they didn't have a lot of advanced recipes," Fujimaru says as he takes the bowl of butter from her, and she looks down and sees it's melted from her excess heat, which causes her to blush a little.

 

"And they never... Put as much care into it as you do," Barghest says, and he smiles.

 

"Ah, well, it's just from doing it so many times," he says humbly. He dumps the melted butter into the bowl with the wet ingredients. After that, he dumps the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mixes the two together. "Now! The important part! I have the most important job for you."

 

"And that is?" 

 

Fujimaru smiles as he hands her the bananas. "Mash 'em and stick 'em in a stew!" he says and blinks as she just stares at him, now getting the joke. "S-Sorry. Force of habit. If you could just peel and mash them into the rest."

 

"Oh! I can do that!" Barghest says excitedly. She takes the bananas and easily mashes them into the mix after peeling them. "Now what?"

 

"MIX!" Fujimaru says excitedly, and Barghest laughs as she begins mixing with the fork. Once it's all properly mixed, she hands the bowl to him. "Perfect. Thank you, Barghest!"

 

"Of course, it was no problem at all," She says as she watches him pour the mix into the pan. He uses a spoon to scrape the rest out and then uses a clean spoon to powder the top with sugar. After that, he throws some chocolate chips on top of it and throws it into the oven. He then takes the spoon used to scrape the rest out and hands it to Barghest as he starts to eat the batter off of the fork used to mix all of it. Barghest smiles and begins to lick the spoon.

 

"How long do we have to wait?" Barghest asks.

 

"A little more than an hour," Fujimaru answers as he sets the timer, then looks at Barghest's face and giggles. She tilts her head, confused again.

 

"What's wrong? Do I have something on my face?" She places her spoon in the sink and asks as she feels her cheeks.

 

"Hang on, lemme get it for you," he says as he stands on his tippy toes as she leans down a bit for him, and he licks a piece of the batter off of her nose. Barghest blushes at the sudden intimacy. Her heartbeat speeds up at how close he is... Until Fujimaru's face scrunches up from the salt from the salt water.

 

He backs away quickly and grabs a drink from a glass of water. "S-Sorry! That's what I get. I should have as...ked..." He starts to say before trailing off as Barghest gently grabs his shirt, pulling him closer. She places her other hand on his face and brings her face to his in a kiss. Fujimaru's eyes widened for only a brief second before closing them and deepening the kiss. This is clearly something he has wanted to do for a long time. 

 

The kiss deepens, and their tongues twirl together as they enjoy the taste of sea salt and bananas. The two break away and look at each other.

 

"S-Sorry..." Barghest whispers. "Couldn't hold back..."

 

Fujimaru shakes his head and brings her in for another kiss, and both happily hum into it. The two slowly make it to the bed as clothes are slowly discarded. His shirt gets thrown off onto a chair, and Barghest's sundress gets yeeted onto a table. Somehow her hat ends up on his head, but both just laugh about it. 

 

Barghest's back hits the bed, and Fujimaru climbs up onto the end of the bed and gently holds her legs, placing soft kisses on her thighs, slowly making his way up. "I-I'm probably salty..." She murmurs.

 

"Don't care..." Fujimaru says as he ignores the salty taste of her as he reaches the bottom of her bikini and slowly pulls it to the side, and Barghest lets out a soft moan as one of her hands grabs his shoulder as her womanhood is exposed. "We have time before the banana bread is done..." He whispers as he places a kiss on it before his tongue slowly enters her. She laughs at his comment as she lets out a shudder, as he gently grabs her thighs to keep her from squeezing his head. Though, despite the danger it would cause, he still wished for it, nonetheless.

 

Barghest is doing everything in her power to keep from devouring her Lord then and there. His tongue pressing and lapping away at her womanhood feels utterly divine. It is a good thing he is holding onto her thighs, because there is a good chance that she would take his life then and there, even if she didn't wish to cause him harm.

 

Her thoughts go fuzzy as she pushes her hips into his mouth with a full of want as he continues to eat her out. She moans softly as her hand moves from his shoulder to his head, knocking off the hat and grabbing his hair as her other hand grips the blankets underneath her. "Ah-! Fujimaru!" She nearly rips the man's hair out as she grips his hair and mutters his name as she orgasms, and the man laps up all of her womanly juices. 

 

Fujimaru's head pops up eventually as she lets go of his hair. He wipes his mouth as he looks at Barghest as she pants and recovers from her blissful high. He watches the woman's heaving breasts and starts to climb onto her. He begins to undo her top to free her breasts as she begins to try to rip his shorts off. Clearly, the two couldn't get their remaining clothes off fast enough. The pieces of cloth fall to the floor as the two begin kissing again. 

 

Their hands caress each other as they take in more and more of each other. Barghest softly moans as her senses come back, as Fujimaru gently holds and massages her breasts. Just as quickly as they come back, they seem to disappear as her hand reaches down to his hard member to help him line himself up with her. She slowly takes him in, getting a moan from the man as the pleasure starts to take over his mind. He takes her lips again, and she has to do everything in her power to keep from biting him as she presses into him. He pulls out of her slowly and thrusts back into her again, starting a slow pace.

 

The bed creaks underneath the two as the pace begins to speed up. Barghest continues to moan and leave multiple bites on the Master's shoulder while Fujimaru loses himself to the pleasure. Her walls clamp down on his member. 

 

Sweat begins to form between the two as they are simply giving into their instincts. Of course. Barghest is holding back on the man's behalf, but his touch is most enjoyable. His hands continue to fondle her breasts as he thrusts into her, causing her to moan softly. Her legs wrap around his back as she orgasms for the second time. "Fujimaru!" She whispers loudly, and he simply leans over and kisses her as her eyes roll back and close. 

 

"Barghest..." Fujimaru whispers as he begins to reach his limit. "Ah..." He moans as he grips her breasts, and he can feel her hands grip his hips as he slams into her. He orgasms hard as he falls onto her panting. "Ha... Ha... That..." He can barely manage his words as he feels Barghest's legs unwrap around him as she presses kisses into his cheek. 

 

It was only a brief moment of rest before the man felt himself get flipped onto his back as Barghest straddled him. He had hardly recovered. And neither had she. She was still quite sensitive from her orgasm, and his seed was still leaking from her. But that didn't matter. Fujimaru lit that flame, and anything past this was pure animalistic instinct. And he's okay with that. 

 

Barghest begins to ride him for everything he's worth. He places his hands on her hips as her strong hands lie beside his head. Both are sweaty messes of people as she rolls her hips on top of his and he continues to thrust into her. 

 

CREAK CREAK CREAK

 

"Master...!" Barghest's mind is gone as she crashes down on top of him, and another orgasm washes over her as she cums on his cock. Her breasts press into him as she takes his lips. He's happy to give her more kisses as he feels her warmth. It's almost unbearable. But at the same time, he can feel her sweat drop onto his face. But he knows better than to know it's not sweat. 

 

"Barghest..." Fujimaru whispers as she still remains in a kiss with him. Steam starts to come off of her as she slows the pace and regains her senses. It's hard for Fujimaru to think straight, feeling her on him. The heat starts to become almost unbearable, but it does help his sore muscles, so he ignores the pain. "Barghest, listen to me..." Fujimaru whispers. There is a silence between the two of them, so he repeats the sentence. He does it again. And again.

 

"... Barghest, listen to me," Fujimaru says, and it finally reaches her. She finally comes to her senses. He feels her nod, and he smiles as he wraps his arms around her, as they crash together for a final time. "I love you, Barghest." He whispers as he reaches his peak, and she wraps her arms around him in a hug.

 

The two stay together for a very long time. Bargest finally cools to a safe temperature as Fujimaru just about passed out in her arms. Barghest simply sets her chin on Fujimaru's head as she recovers. The two are in a blissful silence until a timer goes off.

 

BEEP BREP BEEEEP 

 

Both of them sit up, surprised at the noise. Barghest wipes her now red and puffy eyes from the tears. "S-Sorry..."

 

Fujimaru smiles as he puts on a new pair of shorts. "Hey, it's completely okay! We got really caught up in the moment." He says as he walks over to the oven, pulls out the banana bread, and sets it on the stove. He walks back over to the bed and sits next to her. "It needs to sit and cool off for a few minutes."

 

Bargest blushes as he looks at her with those... Lovely eyes. Did his eyes always shine like that? Doesn't matter. She can't... "I should... Go back to Bristan." She says as she gets up to pick up her clothes. 

 

"Hang on," Fujimaru says with a little bit of a frown. "The day's not over... And it's still your day off," He says and looks down. "I... Barghest. I meant it. I love you. But, if you don't wanna stay, I'm not going to force you. We just got a bit carried away. But, I really liked it."

 

Barghest looks at him in shock. "You mean it?"

 

Fujimaru nods his head almost like an excited child. "We don't have to do much for the rest of the night if you don't wanna, but I'd really like it if you tried the banana bread, at least."

 

Barghest smiles at him. "I'll... I'll get cleaned up," She says and starts to walk into the bathroom. Fujimaru does a little jump for joy, his heels hitting together and his arms waving in the air. "Fujimaru," Barghest says from behind the closed bathroom door. 

 

"Yeah?"

 

"I can still hear you," She says with a laugh, and Fujimaru's face goes red in embarrassment. He stands there in silence for a few minutes as he hears the sound of the shower starting. 

 

A few minutes later, Barghest walks out of the bathroom in a bathrobe and sits on the bed. Fujimaru walks over to her with a plate of a couple of slices of banana bread with melting butter on them, and he sits next to her as the two begin munching on the bread.

 

"This is really good!" Barghest lights up as she finishes the first piece. She then squints at him. "Did you know it would be so good?"

 

"I knew it'd be good because you helped me," He says with a mouthful of banana bread. "That and I knew from the batter." He says with a goofy smile.

 

Barghest smiles at him as she finishes the second piece and swallows it. "Fujimaru, there is something else I wish to do today."

 

"Yeah?" 

 

"I would... Really like to hold your hand." She says with a clear blush on her face.

 

Fujimaru laughs for a moment before he sees her start to look sad, until... She feels his hand touch hers and their fingers interlock. "I only laughed because we just made love and... Hand holding is like- way past that." He says as both of them fall onto the bed. 

 

"No, it's not!" Barghest pleads. "It's the purest form of love...!" She says, looking to the side.

 

"Alright..." Fujimaru says with a chuckle and kisses her. "I accept."

 

Barghest smiles as she places her forehead on his. "I also accept... I love you, Fujimaru. And I also accept your proposal... Only if you can pick me up and hold me."

 

Fujimaru laughs again. "Challenge accepted.”

Chapter 6: Perfection Can't Please Me

Summary:

This chapter has always been here, what are you talking about?

Warning: There is no smut this chapter! It's already long enough as is.

Additional Warning: This chapter DOES contain something more explicit than smut. Hand holding.

Faerie Britain

​

"Your Majesty," Barghest says as she walks into the throne room of the Queen.

​

Mélusine, Baobhan, and Queen Morgan are all sitting around the table. Both Mélusine and Morgan have their veils over their faces, all the while Baobhan is looking at herself in the mirror, not paying attention to the knight's sudden appearance.

​

"Welcome back, Tam Lim Gawain. I trust you had a wonderful date with your beloved?" Morgan asks as she puts her hands together. Barghest sits at the table with the other three, and Baobhan sets her mirror down and rolls her eyes at the knight.

​

"I did. Thank you, Your Majesty. I do apologize for my tardiness," Barghest says as she looks to the side with a blush on her cheeks.

​

"She was probably being all lovey-dovey," Baobhan says with a snicker. "Probably couldn't help but leave bite marks and gnawing on them, could you?"

​

"I did nothing of the sort!" Barghest says as she begins to raise her voice.

​

"Then, pray tell, what did the Mighty Tam Lin Gawain do with her beloved?" Baobhan spits out in a mocking tone. Barghest has to look at Queen Morgan for a moment, remembering where she is and lashing out at the Faerie, clearly trying to get a rise out of her. "Go dress shopping? No, you're far too tall. None would look good on you. Shoe shopping perhaps? No. You couldn't possibly pull off heels," Baobhan starts listing off various guesses, and Morgan starts to raise her hand to get her to stop, but Baobhan suddenly gasps. "No, you didn't! You two kis-"

​

"wEHELDHANDS!" Barghest says this as her face turns red as a tomato, and she covers it. All the while, Baobhan and Queen Morgan both looked shocked at the knight.

​

Wow, these Faeries are really a bunch of nut jobs, huh? I could write a better love story than this.

​

Quit it.

​

Fiiiiine.

​

Anyway, all of the fuss was completely lost on Mélusine, though. She didn't know what the big deal was. Embracing one's mate would be required to reproduce, so what's the difference? Is that not what mates do? Why is that so shocking?

​

"I'm speechless-!" Baobhan yells, clearly not really speechless.

​

"I apologize, your Majesty!" Barghest says, still clearly quite flustered.

​

"I am a bit taken aback to tell the truth, Tam Lin Gawain," Morgan says calmly. "But, I will allow it this one time. It is only natural for you to show the truest form of love to your beloved," Morgan says, and Mélusine's head turns towards Morgan, still trying to process what she said.

​

Is that true? Is holding one's hand the purest form of True Love? That doesn't make any sense.

​

Mélusine doesn't get it.

​

"Just please do not let Tam Lin Tristan's taunts get the better of you. Please have a se..." Morgan's words drone on as Mélusine tries to wrap her head around what Morgan said.

​

She just didn't get it.

​

ServantFES, Hawaltria

​

Sunday

​

She finally got it.

​

The dragon pouts as she lies in her bed as she is snuggled under layers and layers of blankets.

​

After being invited here as one of Morgan's Attendants. She really didn't want to at the beginning, but after being brought here and having the time of her life, she did a complete 180. She no longer was the cold professional Tam Lin Lancelot, no! She was now the cool and carefree Tam Lim Lancelot!

​

Somehow, with that wacky 180, she finally figured it out. She took a look at herself and realized the one thing she wished for... That pure True Love Barghest and Queen Morgan spoke of... And there's only one person's hand she wishes to hold...

​

Ritsuka Fujimaru's.

​

The only problem: There was no Fujimaru.

​

Fujimaru had to stay back for a few days at Chaldea and finish his paperwork due to his procrastination and putting it off.

​

So, she waited.

​

Waited.

​

And waited.

​

After what felt like an eternity, which was only three days, she was bored. Luckily, Morgan suggested she go and help Barghest with the rescue efforts. Mélusine totally saw this as an opportunity to show how cool she really is. So, that helped keep her preoccupied.

​

Then Morgan proposed the Earthman race. And whoever wins would get to spend the week with the one and only Master of Chaldea.

​

By the time Fujimaru did make it to the island, the race was just around the corner. Mélusine had been prepping for it every day, outside of her sleeping in every day and doing cool rescue missions, of course. But she had nothing to worry about! She's the fastest!

​

She has this in the bag!

​

On the day of the race... She, in fact, did not have it in the bag.

​

Fujimaru had to do everything in his power to finish the race with Suzuka Gozen. It was going great for Mélusine.

​

She was going to win the race and then spend the rest of this summer vacation with the Master of Chaldea, and on the last day she would hold his-

​

Unfortunately, at the very last leg of the race, Morgan pulled the Rules rug right from underneath the Dragon, forcing her to try to finish the race underwater. Which was so unfair! She couldn't swim!

​

So the Master of Chaldea won...

​

And Mélusine went back to Hotel Bristan and locked herself in her hotel room, hiding underneath the blankets of her bed. She had the sole plan to hide and mope the rest of the singularity.

​

Of course, Morgan did call her to assist Chaldea with stopping the Calamities being caused by Cnoc Na Riabh and Wandjina.

​

So, are we just not going to mention one of the Calamities was caused by Morgan- Ah, that's a Rhongomyniad flying in my direction.

​

As I was saying. After helping save the day, Mélusine went back to her hotel room to pout until the end of singularity.

​

Mélusine hears a knock at the door. "Go awayyyy..." The dragon says, putting a pillow over her head. There is another knock. "I said go aW-"

​

"Is that how you wish to address your Queen?" She hears the familiar voice of Morgan and her heart drops to her stomach as she realizes the mistake she's made.

​

Mélusine throws the pillows and blankets off of her and zooms over to the door, immediately opens it, and bows. "I apologize, Your Majesty," She says in a calm and collected tone. It seems she's partially back to her normal self.

​

"You are forgiven. You did not know who it was, so I am partially to blame," Morgan says, and Mélusine stands straight up.

​

"What are you doing here, your Majesty?" Mélusine asks, becoming more confused by her queen's sudden appearance. "Shouldn't you be preparing for this singularity to disappear?"

​

"I wish to inform you about that," Morgan says. "You left after the Calamities were slain, but I will be running this singularity for another week."

​

"Wait, what?"

​

What.

​

That means-

​

"And thanks to your admirable efforts, I will be organizing another Earthman Race," Morgan says with a smirk starting to grow on her face. "One you will be sure to win this time."

​

"You... You mean it?" Mélusine asks as her heart starts to beat faster. If she organizes another race, that means she could win Fujimaru! "No tricks this time?"

​

"There were no tricks in the first place," Morgan says, and Mélusine starts to pout for a moment before she continues. "But you have time to prepare now. I believe you should be able to handle it. And the prize will be-"

​

"-A week with Master?!"

​

"-a wish." She says, and Mélusine starts to take a breath, and Morgan already knows what she's going to say. "Within reason. Please know, Fujimaru already has other commitments this week, but I trust one day with your beloved shall suffice?"

​

Mélusine immediately perks up at the last sentence, but completely misses what Morgan had called Fujimaru. "That's more than enough!"

​

Morgan's smirk becomes a smile as she sees her knight so happy. "Then I suggest you begin training. Good luck, my knight." She says as she leaves with a wave and walks away to her room.

​

As soon as Morgan is out of sight, Mélusine closes and locks the door and jumps around the room excitedly.

​

---

Wednesday morning, the day of the second Earthman Race

​

Fujimaru rolls out of bed, completely refreshed. He had spent the last few days hanging out with Castoria, Cnoc Na Riabh, and Baobhan. After going to concerts, the convention, all around the island, and being a personal servant, the three left the poor dude a worn-out shell. The day prior, he did help Barghest have a nice, relaxing day by going swimming with her and baking banana bread with her, so the change of pace was perfect for the Master to refresh.

​

As for today....

​

He had one plan.

​

After Morgan was coerced by Avalon to keep the Singularity up and running for a week, she pulled the master to the side.

​

"Husband," The Queen says as she looks at him. "I have a favor to ask of you."

​

"Oh, is it about showing Sith around the island?" Fujimaru smiles as he holds his thumbs up. "Don't you worry! I won't forget."

​

Morgan smiles as he reassures her of his promise from a few moments ago. "Thank you, but this is a different matter. It's about Mélusine." She says, and Fujimaru's face goes red from ear to ear upon hearing her name. It seems her assumption of the Master's feelings for her knight was spot on.

​

"I am sure you have noticed her absence. She went back to moping just as she did when she lost the race," Morgan says, and Fujimaru looks to the side as he scratches the back of his head.

​

"Yeah... With everything going on, I really haven't had a chance to hang out with her..." Fujimaru says as he starts to feel guilty.

​

He really liked the Dragon. Ever since her appearance in Chaldea, he had started to grow closer and closer to her. Her goofy antics when trying to get along with Barghest, her asking Da Vinci if she could use a grail as fuel, and even her wishing to learn more about the Knights of the Round Table. She's always just so cool, calm, and collected!

​

He did feel guilty about having to win the Earthman Race. And if the fate of the Singularity wasn't up to him, having to spend most of the Singularity making Manga, he would have LOVED hanging out with her more.

​

"Well, I am going to give you a chance to rectify that," Morgan says with a smirk. Her playing matchmaker is actually quite fun.

​

"Wait, really?" Fujimaru asks.

​

"Indeed," She answers. "I will organize another Earthman Race. All you will need to do is leave your day free for her."

​

Fujimaru smiles at her. "Thanks, Morgan. You're the best!"

​

"Fufu, perhaps I am," Morgan beams to herself.

​

Now, Fujimaru finds him at the starting line of the second Earthman Race. The bleachers are full of servants who caught wind of the Rematch between Suzuka and Mélusine and didn't dare miss it. Up at the announcer podium is Aesc the Savior and her trusty assistant, Habetrot, along with Mash and Fou.

​

What Fujimaru didn't expect to see again was Castoria in her Bunny outfit, standing next to Cnoc Na Riabh. The Master walks over and sees Castoria sulking. "What's up, Cas? You look... Miserable?"

​

"She will be fine!" Riabh says, patting the girl's shoulder.

​

"I wasn't supposed to even be in the story..." Castoria says with tears forming. "I just wanted to hang out at the convention, but Morgan said I still owe her QP for eating at her hotel..."

​

Fujimaru laughs as he realizes what happened. "You got this! Make sure she doesn't make her Majesty even more upset, Riabh!" He says, and the woman holds up a thumbs-up. He turns around and sees Mélusine leaning on her gear. "bwA-!" Fujimaru yelps as he wasn't expecting her to be so close.

​

"Oh, hey, Master," Mélusine says casually. "I didn't see you there." She says as she tries playing aloof.

​

"Hey Mélusine!" Fujimaru says, now fully calmed down. "Are you ready? You want me on your team?"

​

"!" Mélusine's go wide. She hadn't thought about that! That would be so cool! His arms wrapped around her waist, holding on for dear life as they fly through the air together... Wait no! He would slow her down! She had worked so hard in preparation for this! Mélusine sighs sadly as she realizes it would be a pipe dream... Maybe next time. "No... I would like this to be a true rematch. One I intend to win."

​

"You got it!" Fujimaru says with a thumbs up and smile, and Mélusine's knees go weak for a moment. "We're gonna give it our all. But, I believe in you too!"

​

"Good luck out there!" Mélusine can't help but say. "You're going to need it!" There it is. That competitive gleam.

​

Fujimaru walks over to Suzuka, and the two of them get in her vehicle. The crowd starts to cheer. Several Knights of the Round Table all hold up signs, cheering for Suzuka. "Traitors..." Mélusine says as she squints at them, but then sees Percival holding up a sign with her name on it.

​

"You ready?" Fujimaru asks as he puts his helmet on.

​

"Totes yeah! You okay goin' up against your GF?" Suzuka asks with a sly wink and sees Fujimaru's face go red.

​

"H-Hey! She's not my-"

​

"I know, I know," Suzuka says, rolling her eyes. "Jeez. You're so easy to fuck with," She sticks her tongue out at him. "The plan's still the same. We're gonna give it our all."

​

"She wouldn't want it any other way," Fujimaru says as he wraps his arms around Suzuka as they start to get ready.

​

"Welcome to the second Earthman Race! I am your host, Aesc. I was sent in place of Queen Morgan, since she is currently busy running the Singularity!" The announcer explains, and there is a cheer from the crowd.

​

"wOOOOO!" Baobhan yells. In most cases, she would be cooped up in her spooky hut, but she was gently coerced into showing up by a certain Rain Witch.

​

"With me today is Miss Kyrielight and Habetrot! We will be providing commentary on the race!"

​

"Hello!" Mash and Habetrot wave.

​

Aesc begins stating the rules of the race while Mélusine prepares herself. Suzuka revs the engine of her bike. And before long, Aesc finishes explaining the rules.

​

"Racers! Are you ready?!"

​

The crowd starts to cheer. "WE LOVE YOU, MÉLUSINE!" A portion of the crowd yells.

​

Mélusine simply points at them. "And I love you too, random Servant!" She winks, and the Servant faints.

​

Fujimaru chuckles, and Suzuka nudges him. "Focus!"

​

"Three! Two... ONE!" Aesc yells and Cnoc Na Riabh fires her flare. Castoria waves her flag, and both Suzuka and Mélusine are off!

​

The race is very similar to how it went last time. The only difference is that it was just Mélusine and Suzuka. No one to interrupt them as they race throughout the island. Mélusine takes the lead easily. Luckily, both Suzuka and Fujimaru knew her weakness and how they could catch up.

​

They make it through both the earth and sky portions until they finally reach the water portion of the race and see Mélusine floating above the water.

​

"Fujimaru and Suzuka are starting to catch up to Mélusine now!" Mash announces.

​

"But what is Mélusine doing?! She's just floating there!" Habetrot adds

​

"We got her now!" Suzuka yells, and Fujimaru nods. The two start to catch up to the Knight. "See ya!" Suzuka yells as they pass Mélusine, and the two dive into the water. Fujimaru had looked back at the Faerie Knight, and it looked like she was fiddling with something. But they don't have enough time to find out whatever it is.

​

They start getting a good distance until... They see her dive into the water after them and start catching up like a torpedo.

​

"I THOUGHT SHE COULDN'T SWIM?!" Suzuka says with her voice full of panic.

​

In truth, Mélusine still couldn't swim. But with the spare time prior to the race, she had spent time with Edison, Babbage, Moriarty, and the Nemos to solve her problem. Their solution: Instead of teaching her how to swim, turn her into a torpedo. They were able to tinker with her armaments and added a bunch of oxygen tanks, so all she would have to do is get enough speed by flying up into the air and diving down. Then activate her oxygen tanks to keep her propelled long enough to finish the final portion of the race.

​

"SHE CAN NOW! WE GOTTA KEEP GOING, SHE'S GAINING ON US!" Fujimaru yells. That's what she meant when she said she didn't intend to lose.

​

"No prob! I still got some gas in the tank!" Suzuka shouts as she starts speeding up. "I'm not gonna let your girlfriend win so easily!"  

​

"Not my girlfriend!"

​

"Yet!"

​

As they keep speeding through the water, Mélusine crushes an oxygen tank and activates another to keep her spinning. She's easily able to pass the two as they squabble. The dragon smirks as she starts getting the upper hand.

​

The only problem they found with this strategy is... She's using all of the oxygen she has. So, she has to do the whole portion of the race within seconds while she holds her breath. But that is no problem for her.

​

Suzuka is doing everything she can to stay on Mélusine's tail. But even then, the dragon torpedo is so fast! It's going to be close!

​

Both racers make it out of the water and cross the finish line. Mélusine lands gracefully but starts tearing off the added weight of the now-crushed metal  gear that was added for this race. Suzuka and Fujimaru do an Akira slide as they come to a stop. Cheers explode from both sides of the crowd as Castoria waves her flag.

​

"Both racers have crossed the finish line! But who won?!" Mash yells excitedly.

​

Aesc waves her hands, and a projection shows a replay of both crossing the finish line and slowly replays the events.

​

Mélusine, Suzuka, and Fujimaru all hold their breath as they watch the replay.

​

"It seems..." Habbycar says as she leans forward with a needle in her mouth as she watches the replay. It was very close! But clear as day, Mélusine crossed the finish line first while holding out her tongue for more distance. "... Mélusine crossed the finish line first!"

​

"I DID IT!" Mélusine yells as she runs over to Fujimaru and tackles him.

​

"Gah!"

​

"I DID IT! DID YOU SEE THAT?!" Mélusine laughs as she hugs him tightly. "I WON!"

​

"Yeah, you did!" Fujimaru laughs as Mélusine keeps hugging him excitedly. Suzuka smirks as she watches the Dragon claim her prize.

​

Mash, Habetrot, and Aesc all approach the two racers. Aesc is holding a golden trophy with a wave, a horse, and a mountainside on it. "Fufu..."

​

Mélusine was about to lay fifteen kisses on the Master, but with the sudden appearance of Aesc, she quickly stood up. "Your Majesty!"

​

Fujimaru recovers from the sudden assault of the dragon and stands up as he dusts himself off. Mash, Cnoc Na Riabh, Castoria, and Habetrot gather with Suzuka and award her with a silver trophy very similar to the one Aesc is holding. Suzuka accepts the trophy and gives Fujimaru a thumbs up, mouthing "You got this!" with a wink. Fujimaru blushes and mouths "Thank you" back with a win. Suzuka may have lost the race, but she truly won by being the best wingwoman.

​

"Please, I'm simply Aesc the Rain Witch," Aesc says, adjusting her glasses. "Now, Tam Lim Lancelot, I award thee with this trophy. And since you have won the race, you may be granted one wish!" Aesc says excitedly as she hands the trophy to the Dragon. Mélusine is about to say her grandest wish, but Aesc quickly cuts her off. "Within reason!"

​

Mélusine kicks the dirt for a moment as she ponders. She had spent so much time preparing for the race, she didn't even think of a wish... Obviously, she can't just ask for Fujimaru. That would be silly. And she wouldn't just want to impose that on him. And when he gets back to Chaldea, he will have more trials to face...

​

She can't just ask for him to hold her hand right now, either. She has to build up to that!

​

Mélusine scoots over to Fujimaru. Aesc simply smiles as the crowd goes quiet, trying to hear her wish. "Psst, Fujimaru! What should I wish for?"

​

"I giant Mech," Fujimaru says the first thing on his mind. In hindsight, he should have probably thought this through more.

​

"She said within reason!" Mélusine panics.

​

"Okay, what would you like?" Fujimaru asks with a smile. He had a similar conversation with Barghest the day prior about how she would spend her day off.

​

"Well..." Mélusine says as she finally figures out what she wants. "I wish-"

​

---

 

"-to spend the rest of the day with Fujimaru." is what she wished for.

​

Now, both of them stand outside of a small villa with a beach all to themselves.

​

"So, Mélu! What would you like to do?" Fujimaru asks as he looks at the Faerie Knight.

​

"I'm so glad you asked!" Mélusine says, clearly prepared for this. She holds up a backpack. "We're going to do everything!"

​

"Huh?"

​

"I've got it all! Come on!" Mélusine says as she grabs his arm and pulls the man into the Villa. She runs over to a table and starts unloading the contents of the bag. "I brought us model kits for us to build, plenty of anime that Osakabehime let me borrow, and a Flip 2 so we can play that racing game that Tamoe likes. Oh! We can go shopping! We can build sandcastles and we can paint each other!" She says, holding up two canvases. How did she keep all of that in her backpack?! And how long has she been planning this?!

​

"That's a lot..." Fujimaru starts to say, and Mélusine's face drops for a moment before smiling.

​

"We have enough time to do it all! Come on, let's get changed and build sandcastles!" She says as she pushes him to a room to get changed.

​

Not one to back down from a challenge, Fujimaru smiles. "Let's do it!"

​

And so, they build the coolest of sandcastles for all of the nearby critters on the beach. Once they're all done building sandcastles, they head into the water to play. But they only go as far as the water to reach their ankles, for Mélusine's sake.

​

After that, Mélusine flew them into town, where they were able to try on new clothes. Luckily for Fujimaru, this date didn't make him carry tons of bags and boxes, just the bags for the food they planned on making for dinner and snacks. But Mélusine was able to try on lots of new shoes and hats, all of which looked very nice on her, and Fujimaru made sure to tell her.

​

Once they got back to the villa, Mélusine put on an anime about fire burning down the world and firefighters in mechs. All the while, Fujimaru cooks both of them dinner. The Knight sits on the counter, occasionally helping him cut various things, but both would get distracted by the anime every so often.

​

After they finish the cool mech anime, they start watching an anime about exploring dungeons and cooking. There was a red dragon on the cover and that's what primarily drew Mélusine to it, but she knew Fujimaru loves cooking, so it was perfect for both of them!

​

While they ate dinner and watched the cooking anime, they began to assemble the model kits that she had obtained while at ServantFES. Fujimaru happily assembles a mech with shades and a drill while Mélusine assembles a plane called the SR-91 Aurora.

​

After the model kits were assembled, they played quite a bit of the racing game. Fujimaru was able to beat her in the beginning rounds, but she quickly got the hang of it and started to destroy him in the following matches, though she did resort to other tactics to get ahead. "This has to be cheating!" Fujimaru yells as the Knight has her foot on his face, distracting him and causing him to lose places in the race.

​

"In the words of Tamoe, 'Git goo-’ HEY, WHERE DID THAT BLUE SHELL EVEN COME FROM?!" the Knight shouts.

​

"Hehe..."

​

They played a few more rounds before the two of them grabbed a bunch of objects that they had obtained through their shopping trip and set up their paints, easels, and canvases. Fujimaru is up first to pose.

​

The Knight directs the Master to lie on the couch, lying on his side and angling his legs so he's sitting in a French position. The man grabs a nearby rose and puts it in his mouth. "Paint me like one of your French girls~~" He says cheesily.

​

"That sounds like a line from a cheesy romance movie. Sit still." Mélusine says with a paintbrush on her ear. She somehow has already gotten paint in her hair and face.

​

"It... It was..." Fujimaru says defeatedly as he puts the rose on his ear. He then picks up one of the apples they were using as props and takes a bite.

​

"Sit still! And quit eating the props!"

​

Whenever it's Mélusine's turn to pose, she is a much better model. Unfortunately, Fujimaru is more in a silly, goofy mood, and he does paint her! He really does! But her face is more of a... “: D” than anything....

​

"Alright! I'm done!" Fujimaru says, and Mélusine jumps up and grabs her canvas.

​

"Okay! Flip them in three... Two... One!" Mélusine says excitedly, and both of them show each other their paintings.

​

Mélusine's portrait of Fujimaru is a masterpiece. Which is impressive, given they were only allowed thirty minutes. As for Fujimaru's portrait of Mélusine...

​

"THAT'S NOT WHAT MY FACE LOOKS LIKE!" Mélusine says, and Fujimaru holds up his hands in defense.

​

"I did my best! And sometimes it does..."

​

"Huh?!" Mélusine can hardly believe the words that just came out of his mouth. Fujimaru just laughs. "... What?"

​

"Nothing. You're really cute with the paint on your face and in your hair." Fujimaru says, and Mélusine blushes as she looks to the side, embarrassed.

​

Fujimaru yawns as he sits down on the couch. He didn't realize how exhausted he was until he sat down. Then again, it was getting close to 1 AM. Mélusine zooms over to him. "Okay, now, I have some Gelo sets for us to build, and we can watch more anime. I have this one where this chick fights with a giant pair of Scissors!"

​

Fujimaru blinks. She still has more planned? How is she not tired?! "Mélu... I'm exhausted," He says, and she frowns. "What's going on?"

​

"I... Still want to do a lot more with you..." She says as she sits next to him on the couch. "And we won't get a chance to do anything else for the rest of the summer, and then when we go back to Chaldea, I'll be back to my normal self and you will be busy... And I won't be able to..."

​

Ah. That's what it is.

​

Fujimaru furrows his brow as the Knight mumbles something unintelligible. "Hey, we have the next two days to do whatever you want."

​

It's Mélusine's turn to blink. "What?"

​

"Well, I'd still like to hang with Morgan before the end of the week, but that can just be a little bit. I was just planning on getting her some coffee and some breakfast since she's been cooped up in her hotel room all week," Fujimaru explains. "But other than that, I have no plans for the rest of the week! I'm all yours!"

​

"She said I'd only have a day..." Mélusine laughs as she starts to feel relieved. "I'm really sorry..."

​

"Huh? Why?" Fujimaru asks, tilting his head a bit as the Knight scootches back onto the couch and hugs her knees.

​

"I ruined our day today because I didn't think we would have more time together... And I still didn't even get my wish granted..."

​

Fujimaru laughs as he smiles at her. "Hey. I had a great time today. We got to eat lots of snacks and wear lots of shoes. Honestly, one of the best days I've had in a long time," he says as he scootches closer to her. She lifts her head from her legs as he leans his head on her shoulder. "What was your wish? I'm not as cool as Morgan, but I might be able to grant it."

​

C'mon. You can say it.

​

Butterflies start to flutter in the girl's stomach. Or that could just be all the snacks.

​

This wouldn't be hard if she were her regular self.

​

Wait. She is still herself.

​

A smile forms on her face as she finally builds the confidence to ask him what she's wanted since she set foot on this island. "I would really like to hold your hand..."

​

"Oh. That's it?" Fujimaru laughs a little. "I dunno... That might be a really hard wish to grant," he says, and Mélusine pokes him in the face.

 

"Don't tease me," she says in a quite voice. "Don't you know it's dangerous to tease a dragon?"

 

He rolls his eyes and holds her hand, and their fingers interlock. "You just had to ask."

​

Mélusine just blinks again. Nothing happened. No fireworks. No spark. She didn't feel any different. WHY IS THIS THE MEANING OF TRUE LOVE?!

​

She still didn't get it!

​

She huffs frustratedly. But when she tried to let go of his hand, her hand didn't let go. Fujimaru wasn't doing anything. He was just looking at her with those blue eyes of his and a little confused. Maybe... That's what it was. She didn't want to let him go.

​

"Stay with me..." She whispers, and Fujimaru smiles again.

​

"Didn't plan on leaving. No matter how many miles of life throws at us, I'll stick with you."

​

"And I'll wait for you," Mélusine says as she leans onto him. The two slowly fall asleep, hand in hand.

​

---

Years later, after the Restoration of Humanity, Chaldea is just a Museum of the past...

​

"Fujimaru..." Mélusine groans with tears in her eyes as she holds a one-year-old child up to her shoulder and places a hand on her pregnant stomach.

​

"Yes, dear?" Fujimaru says as he pops up from behind the counter of their pastry shop. He too has a child holding onto his back for a piggyback ride.

​

"Hehe! This is fun, Dad!" The child says, and Fujimaru laughs.

​

After the restoration of Humanity, the two lived their lives in peace. After deciding to stay with Fujimaru, Mélusine started to grow just a little bit. Unlike how she originally looked like a young Aurora, she started to grow into her own person. She is a bit taller, filled out more, and her horns have grown a bit. And still just as cool and handsome as she always has been.

​

As for Fujimaru, the former master now may be riddled with scars from his various battles, but he still holds the kindness he showed everyone on his journey.

​

And just as they promised, Mélusine had been with him every step of the way, waiting for him to finish his journey.

​

But that still didn't stop her usual antics. "Do you..." She sniffles as she waddles up to him. "Love me?"

​

Fujimaru blinks. He looks at the seven other children running around their pastry shop. They had been married for years now. "I-" He stops himself and smiles. He holds her hand, and she smiles at him. "Yes, dear. I do."

​

She sniffles again. "T-Thank you. I just wanted to check," Mélusine says as she still holds his hand. She kisses him, and some of the kids groan.

​

"Eeewwwww!"

​

"Mommy and daddy are kissing!"

​

"Gross!"

​

Both Mélusine and Fujimaru roll their eyes before kissing again to get a rise out of the kids. "Alright, alright," Fujimaru says as he looks at the kids. "Don't all of you have chores to do?" He says, and all of the kids scatter.

​

Mélusine smiles as she watches her husband while still holding his hand, very happy with the life she has built with him.

Notes:

Honest, this is the one chapter that actually might get a follow on. And just for those wondering, it's just a headcanon of mine that Melu would be able to grow after the events of the Grand Order. Lorewise, probably not. But she is still a special case along with the other Faerie Knights.

If you would like a cooler and way better fic with Mélusine, please check out CelestialSkyDragon's fics! He does a wonderful job of portaying her.

Chapter 7: The Queen is not a morning person

Summary:

So, there WAS going to be a date between Fujimaru and Morgan.

But then I was blessed with the thought of a sleepy Morgan in sleep wear and gave the two a well deserved domestic chapter.

Weeks ago...

 

A minute singularity appeared in Japan, and the three were deployed to take care of it. With no signs of threats and word of a summer festival going on, Fujimaru and Mash hardly even had to ask Morgan if she wished to go. 

 

Goredolf wasn't happy about it, but with some convincing done by Da Vinci and Sion, the three were given the okay. Fujimaru and Mash took Morgan on a shopping spree to get the appropriate clothes, and the three were off to have fun. 

 

The trio starts to visit each and every stall, pulling each other in every direction every time something catches their eye, be it snacks, games, or small trinkets.

 

Fireworks pop off overhead as the three walk through the streets. Fujimaru takes a bite of his blue snow cone before leaning over to Morgan. "Psst."

 

"Yes, my Husband?" Morgan asks as she looks over at him. 

 

"Bleh," Fujimaru says as he sticks his now dyed blue tongue out at her.

 

This gets a smile from the Berserker, which was nice. Very few were able to get her to smile, but luckily, Fujimaru and Mash were some of the lucky few.

 

"Look, senp- SENPAI!?" Mash was about to point out a stall with a fun game three could play before looking at him and seeing the Master's dyed lips and tongue.

 

"FOU?!" Fou yips from Mash's shoulder.

 

"It's cool, it's just my snow cone," Fujimaru says, gesturing to it, and this calms the shielder.

 

"Oh, okay, but look! We should play this!" Mash says as she leads them to the game. It's a simple shooting game, where if you hit the can off the stand, you'll get a prize.

 

"Oh yeah! You wanna give it a try?" Fujimaru asks Morgan.

 

"I believe it would be fun," Morgan says, and the three step up to the game. The stall runner hands the three their pump-action toy rifles and explains the rules. 

 

The game starts off without a hitch, but it turns out... It's very difficult to play. It's almost as if it's rigged. But, luckily, Fujimaru was able to knock a can off its stand.

 

"Good job, sen-" Mash starts to say before looking over at Morgan, who is SEETHING. She looks like she could summon a Rhongomyniad at any moment. "H-Hey, we can try again, Morgan..." Mash says, trying to defuse the situation.

 

"Yeah, it's no problem, really!" Fujimaru says, and Morgan takes a breath and is calm once again.

 

"Yes, of course... Well done, Husband. And you put up a valiant effort, Galahad," Morgan says as she smiles at Mash.

 

"Here's your prize," the stall runner says as he hands Fujimaru a little container.

 

Fujimaru blinks at how small it is, but pops it open to see a plastic ring. It's nothing fancy, but... It does feel a bit special. "Oh, that's neat," he says and looks at the Mash. Mash gives him a smile but taps the back of his foot.

 

"Fou!" Fou yips. (Translation: "She's too nice to say something, but I'm not! DON'T FUCK THIS UP!")

 

Fujimaru smiles as he reads the situation loud and clear. Mash playing the role of wingman was the last thing he expected, but he appreciates it. He hadn't really told Mash his feelings for the Faerie Queen, but at the same time, hiding them was never his strong suit. "Ahem," he says as he clears his throat. "Morgan, hold out your hand, please."

 

"Hm?" 

 

Fujimaru then gets on a knee, kneeling in front of her. "This is for all of your hard work... Thank you." He says as he takes her hand and places the ring on her ring finger. 

 

"O-Oh!" Morgan says as a blush forms on her face, completely taken aback by Fujimaru's suddenness. "T-Thank you, my Husband..." She whispers and smiles as she looks at the ring on her hand. It had been a long time since she had experienced this feeling... She looks up and sees Mash and Fujimaru smiling at her.

 

Present Day...

 

Thursday Morning. The last day before the Singularity disappears.

 

"I have a black coffee and a cappuccino with oatmilk and a pump of caramel, for Fujimaru!" The barista says as she places the drinks on the counter. 

 

Fujimaru walks up to the counter and grabs the coffees he ordered for himself and Morgan. He smiles as he grabs the coffees. "Thank you, um." He says thanks to the barista as he reads her name badge. "Koko..? That's a weird name."

 

"So's Fujimaru," The Barista retorts with a smirk.

 

"Alright, you got me there. Thank you, Koko!" Fujimaru says as he walks out of the coffee shop.

 

"Hasta la pasta! Watch out for the chickens!" 

 

Fujimaru smiles at the warning as he begins to walk to Hotel Bristan. 

 

The man was on a mission. After doing sidequests like gathering mats, embers, buying doujins, helping Teach, being Cnoc's servant, going to a concert, showing Sith around the island, and helping Barghest take a day off... There is one person he needs to see.

 

And it's not Oberon. Which is fine. He didn't want a date with Fujimaru anyway.

 

The man now stands outside of the door to Morgan's room and begins to knock. Most people wouldn't dare disturb the Queen's slumber, but he was sure she would make a special exception for him.

 

After a few minutes, there isn't an answer, so he knocks again. And luckily, there is an answer this time. Morgan opens the door in all of her sleepy glory. 

 

The woman has the craziest case of bed head, and instead of her usual attire, she has a short pair of pajama shorts and a baggy T-shirt. She's rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as she puts her large, round glasses on. It's strange seeing her so... Informal. "Good... Morning... Hus... maru..." She says quietly, still standing at the doorway. It seems that keeping the singularity running has taken quite the toll on the Queen.

 

"Good morning, Morgan! I brought you a cof..." Fujimaru says and sees that Morgan's eyes have closed as she's leaning on the door. DID SHE FALL ASLEEP STANDING UP?! "Alright... Let's help you out..." Fujimaru says as he helps the woman back into her room. He sets their coffees on the table as he gently guides her to a chair. 

 

As the creator of Hotel Bristan, Morgan's suite is luxurious and quite decorated. Even the chairs seem to be quite expensive. But comfy nonetheless. There seem to be quite a few cute trinkets on the various tables. And knowing that she doesn't really care for trinkets and such, they seem to be gifts from Baobhan Sith.

 

"Mh... Wha..." Morgan mumbles as she wakes up again. "Good morning..." 

 

Fujimaru smiles again. "Good morning again, here, let me get our coffees-" He laughs as he walks back to get her coffee for her, but he feels her grab the edge of his shirt, trapping him. He sits down on the chair, and Morgan cuddles up to him. 

 

"Why have you come to see your Queen...?" Morgan, with bed head hair in her mouth, asks as she closes her eyes again. Truly, the embodiment of nobility. 

 

"Well, I've been uber busy and thought I would come and see the person who has been upkeeping this singularity for all of us..." Fujimaru says and sees a soft smile form on Morgan's face. "Sorry, I didn't come sooner..."

 

"S'kay..." Morgan mumbles as she wraps her arms around his neck, cuddling closer into him and his warmth. As for Fujimaru, feeling her so close to him, he was in danger of falling asleep himself. "Mm... What would my dear Husband wish to do today...?" She asks, finally taking the hair from her mouth.

 

"I wanted to see if you wanted to go on a date... We didn't get to spend a lot of time together here," Fujimaru starts to whisper as sleep starts to take him. "It didn't help that I was being pulled in so many directions..."

 

"And that deceitful wench didn't help matters..." Morgan grumbles at the mention of Avalon.

 

"She did make the vacation sort of fun..." Fujimaru mumbles and hears a quiet snore from the woman cuddling him, and he can't help but give in to the sleep, either. 

 

---

 

It's a while before Fujimaru feels Morgan leave their cuddle spot. He wakes up to her plopping down onto Fujimaru's lap. He opens his eyes and sees Morgan now has her glasses off and is taking a sip of her coffee as she begins to brush her hair. She looks over at Fujimaru and sees he's awake, and gives him a small smile. "Thank you for the coffee, dear. Sorry you had to see me in such a state..."

 

"Of course! And it's no problem. You've been working really hard," Fujimaru smiles at her, and Morgan looks to the side with a hint of a blush. "So, what would my Queen like to do today?" He asks.

 

"A date would be nice..." She says as she begins to brush her hair. "But... I do not have the energy... Keeping this singularity running has taken it out of me," She answers as she takes a drink of her coffee. "When I see that conniving wench..."

 

"That's okay!"

 

"Hm?" Morgan hums in confusion.

 

"We can just stay here and do nothing all day if you want, it honestly... Sounds really nice." Fujimaru says with a big grin. "Of course, I could leave too if you want..."

 

"Do not speak of such nonsense. I would love nothing more than to spend the day with you; it is long overdue by this point." She says as she holds his hand and their fingers interlock.

 

"Lazy day it is, then!" Fujimaru says excitedly. Morgan smiles as she realizes that it's probably one of the few true days off he's had.

 

---

 

So, the two literally do nothing for a majority of the day.

 

Fujimaru was able to nab some DVDs of shitty movies and old anime from Osakabehime and Edison. Now with the DVD player set up, the two vegged out on the couch just watching shitty movies and eating pizza for most of the day. 

 

"This garlic bread is actually very tasty," Morgan says, and Fujimaru nods as he finishes his slice of pizza.

 

"It is. I could eat garlic bread every day if EMIYA would let me," Fujimaru states before he squints. "Maybe I could convince Boudica or Tamamo-cat to make it every time. Bhima definitely would! It'd be garlic naan though..."

 

"Then you would get fat," Morgan says, and Fujimaru's pride shatters. 

 

"Bread makes you fat?!" Fujimaru says as tears start to form, and Morgan laughs as she leans into him to cuddle. The two continue to watch some more, and the pizza gets eaten.

 

"Yeah, this one's one of those 'turn your mind off' kind of movies that's just silly," Fujimaru yaps away as Morgan leans on him, listening to him. She forgets quite often... Fujimaru is a nerd. It reminds her of when she was young. Perhaps, that's one of the things that draws her to him. She holds her hand out and looks at the ring he gave her weeks ago as she begins to get lost in thought. 

 

"Though I like that Prad Bitt plays a..." Fujimaru continues to yap until he sees Morgan looking at the ring. He hadn't noticed that she was still wearing it until now. Though, just like him, she would get caught on the smallest things. Perhaps, that's why he likes her. "Would... You like something nicer?" 

 

Morgan frowns for a moment as she looks up at him. "You put your heart into getting this... Even if the game was partially rigged..." She grumbles, clearly still mad about losing. Her frown then becomes a smile. "But... You gave it to me. That's what makes it precious to me. That's why I love you."

 

Fujimaru's eyes go wide as his heart nearly stops. "You... Love me?"

 

"Of course I do..." Morgan murmurs as she sits up beside him and looks at him. "I do not give the title 'Husband' to just anyone, Ritsuka Fujimaru..." she says as she gets closer to him. 

 

Hearing her say his actual name almost knocks the wind out of him. She hardly ever calls him by his name. 

 

"I admire your strength and tenacity. Your willingness to continue on despite the odds... Even with Humanity continuing to fight against you. It's admirable," Morgan says, and Fujimaru begins to blush at how close she is to him. "Thy strength befits a crown..."

 

"As does yours, your Majesty..." Fujimaru whispers as his hands gently hold her, and his face inches closer to hers. "I love you too, my Queen," he says, and both of them close the distance between them as they kiss. Something long overdue at this point, and both could tell. The kiss is full of want and need. Morgan holds Fujimaru's arms tightly, as if she let go, he would fade away. Of course, Fujimaru didn't even dare think of fleeing. This is the one place he wished to be.

 

Morgan didn't plan for this to be the course of today. But she wasn't going to complain. The noise of the TV was drowned out by the sound of the two making out and soft moans. This was something she hardly ever experienced, but Fujimaru was making it most enjoyable. His touch on her skin... His tongue in her mouth. The feeling of his breath(even if it's a bit garlicy) on her lips. And she needed more.

 

Fujimaru was having the time of his life making out with the love of his life until she pulled away from him. He lets out a sound in protest before his eyes nearly pop out of their sockets as he sees Morgan pull off her baggy T-shirt, discarding it to the side, and exposing her breasts to him. The poor Master doesn't even know what to say or do. "H- Wh- he- Hæh?"

 

"How did you make that sound..." Morgan asks before her cold gaze returns. "I just sang your praises, and this is how you respond?"

 

Fujimaru blinks a few more times, and his senses return as he completes his restart. "S-Sorry... Just... Haven't..."

 

Morgan's gaze softens and her smile returns. "Neither have I... Let us experience this together..." She whispers, and Fujimaru slowly nods as he pulls his shirt off and it joins hers on the floor. Fujimaru's back slowly falls to the cushions underneath him as Morgan climbs on top of him and straddles his waist. She leans down, pressing her pillowy breasts into him as they begin making out. 

 

This continues until Morgan feels something begin to press against her thigh. She breaks away from the kiss, getting a small squeak from Fujimaru until he sees a sly smile form on the Queen's face. She scootches off of him and pulls his shorts off, freeing his hard member. 

 

"S-Sorry..." Fujimaru mumbles, but Morgan shakes her head. 

 

"Do not apologize, husband. I shall take it as a compliment," She says as she gently strokes his member, getting a moan from the man. This brings to light an idea as she lets go of his member and grabs her breasts. Fujimaru's eyes widen again as he feels her place her breasts around his member. "Allow me to repay you..." 

 

"M-Morgan..." Fujimaru mumbles as Morgan uses her breasts to stroke him off. They hardly had any challenge wrapping around his cock, thanks to how well-endowed she is. But what really sent him over the edge was when she let a bit of her saliva drop upon his member, and her spite enveloped his cock. That's what really did him in. He wasn't going to last long. He was totally and utterly enamored with his queen. 

 

And Morgan knew it. And she loved it. She began to give him the tittyfuck of his life. It wasn't long before Fujimaru was a moaning mess. "Ah... M-Morgan..." He moans as Morgan smiles. Hearing her name coming out of his mouth was music to her ears.

 

"God..." Fujimaru says as he grips the cushions underneath him, as his thoughts go fuzzy. "Morg... Morgan... I'm going to..." He barely gets out before he comes on her chest and her face.

 

A thought of annoyance appears as she releases her mounds from his cock, but disappears as she sees him panting and recovering from his high. "Some... Warning would be appreciated, next time, dear..." 

 

"Next time...?" Fujimaru says as Morgan slides off of him, and he sits up and grabs some tissues for her. 

 

"I hope we shall continue this...." Morgan asks as she cleans her chest and her face. 

 

"I would really like that," Fujimaru says with a smile. 

 

"Good. Then it shall be," Morgan says, getting up and holding out her hand for him. He takes it as she leads him to her grandiose bed, and she pulls him in for another kiss. 

 

Clothes are discarded, leaving the two bare as they continue their lovemaking. This is not the course of events either had planned. But neither complained.

 

The two continue this late into the day. Love bites are left on each other's bodies as the sheets of the bed slowly become more and more drenched in both of their body fluids and juices.

 

Morgan rolls her hips as she rides the man. Fujimaru continues to thrust his hip into her, doing his best to keep up with the woman's bounces, but is struggling to keep up. Morgan smirks as she sees her Husband struggling underneath her. "What is this, dear Husband? Exhausted already?" She eggs him on, and he gives her a confident smirk.

 

"Absolutely not!" Fujimaru says as his hands grab her derriere tightly, catching her off guard. She sees his spark light again as he thrusts into her hard. "Ah-! Right there...!" She moans as he hits her cervix.

 

"That's right! Ah!" She moans as he speeds up his thrusts into her, absolutely melting at the feeling of her walls clenching around him. 

 

Morgan's hands clench onto his chest as her nails dig into his skin. Fujimaru can't help but slow his thrusts as he watches the look on the woman's face as she rides him. Between her hair falling around her shoulders, her breasts bouncing, and her eyebrows furrowing, he can't help but smile. "Ah...!" Fujimaru moans as he feels himself start to reach his max.

 

"Yes..." Morgan mumbles as she presses down against him and meets his lips. "Cum for me..." She whispers, and Fujimaru's eyes widen at the command. His grip on her tightens as he cums in her.

 

"Ah... Ha..." Fujimaru moans as he feels the roll of Morgan's hips slow as she orgasms and collapses on him. 

 

"Ha... Well done, my husband..." Morgan pants. Fujimaru grabs her hands, holds them, and kisses her cheek. 

 

"Anything for my wife..." Fujimaru whispers, and it's Morgan's turn to look shocked. She's never heard him call her that. 

 

The title brings a smile to her face as she kisses his nose, and she sees him slowly start to fall asleep. "I wish I could give you a peaceful life..." Morgan whispers as she places a kiss on his cheek.

 

"That's my wish too..." Fujimaru whispers and wraps his arm around her. "A house... Kids... A pastry shop..."

 

Morgan hums a laugh. "Servants cannot have children..." She says in a soft voice.

 

"I mean..." Fujimaru yawns. "Erice is the child of a servant... So maybe..." He says before drifting to sleep and Morgan follows soon after.

 

When he would wake up back in his bed in the Storm Border. This singularity will be over and a distant dream. 

 

But that doesn't stop the two from enjoying this blissful moment as they hold hands in bed, sharing a dream of the future.

 

---

 

Years later, after the Restoration of Humanity and the dismantling of Chaldea...

 

Fujimaru and Morgan stand at the porch of a house, at the edge of a grassy field, hand in hand.

 

They live a peaceful life now. Mash, Baobhan Sith, Barghest, and Mélusine live lives of peace and visit every so often. 

 

Morgan takes Fujimaru's scar-covered hand and moves it to her stomach, and smiles at him. Despite the pain and scars the former master has collected, he still has that spark of kindness in his eyes. And together the two have been able to create new life.

 

"Have you come up with a name?" Fujimaru asks with a smile, and Morgan gives him a small smile.

 

"I think Roland would be a fine name," She answers, and Fujimaru wraps his arm around her. "If it's a boy, of course."

 

"That would be a fine name," Fujimaru says, and his head turns as he hears the yelling of a boy.

 

"C'mon, Dad! You said we'd playyyyy!" A boy with blond hair and blue eyes says as he pops out of a pile of hay.

 

Fujimaru laughs at the boy's impatience. "Alright, alright, Steven, I'm coming," he says, giving Morgan a tight squeeze. "I better not keep him waiting." He says, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

 

Morgan smiles as she watches Fujimaru walk off the porch and picks up the kid out of the hay bale, throws him into the air and catches him. 

 

 

 

... That is a nice dream.

The beginning is partially based off of @ivanshinoda10's comic between Morgan and Fujimaru

Chapter 8: A Dance at the End of the Dream

Summary:

Fujimaru wakes up in an unfamiliar place at the end of his summer vacation.

Note: This does make a little more sense if you have read You Are My Star and the other chapters. This also kind of leads into Ordeal Call II.

Notes:

Morgan: Geez, Altria, how come you get TWO chapters with Fujimaru?!
Altria: Ehe... Eto bleh...

"I ask of you..."

 

Fujimaru is suddenly woken up by the sound of a voice. He recognizes it as Castoria's, but it's far too formal... He opens his eyes and sees he's standing in Avalon's Penthouse suite. He blinks as he assesses the situation and sees Avalon in her bathing suit lying on top of a table, with her head leaning on her hand. 

 

"... Are you my m- BWA?!" Avalon begins to say as the table turns out to be a folding table and was only meant to have food on it, not the weight of a woman. She crashes to the ground as it breaks. "Curses!" 

 

Fujimaru stares blankly at her, more confused by the whole ordeal. "What... Hæh??" 

 

"I knew I should not have left Muramasa to get the table... He said a shady guy in a black hoodie gave it to him..." Avalon says as she picks herself off the ground. "Also, how do you keep making that noise with your mouth?"

 

"I... Huh?" Fujimaru gets out. "How am I here? Last I knew, I was enjoying my last day on the Island before we head back..."

 

"And you went to sleep... And ended up here." She says as she snaps, and a record player nearby starts playing music.

 

"Yeah, so..." Fujimaru starts to say and then gives her a deadpanned look. "This is a dream, isn't it?"

 

"Yes, it is. But..." Avalon begins to say as she starts walking over to him. "It's a reward... And a warning."

 

Fujimaru's eyebrows furrow at her words. A reward for what? "What... Alright. I thought the singularity being around for the week was the reward?" 

 

"Oh, it was," Avalon says as she takes his hand and places it on her hip, and she takes his other hand. Fujimaru realizes what she wants, and the two begin to dance. "But... It's also a reward for everything you have done. In your struggles... For persevering... For you helping Altria," She says, and Fujimaru looks to the side. That and I wanted a turn."

 

"A turn? What do you mean?" He asks as they continue their waltz. He was never the best dancer. He danced with Castoria on a few occasions, but Avalon seems to be better at it than she is.

 

"You got a turn with all of the other girls... Even Morgan! I would like a chapter too!" Avalon says in a huff. "Well, except Suzuka or Chloe. They don't count." 

 

Fujimaru WISHES she'd stop being so cryptic for five seconds. "What are you even talking about? I didn't even get with anyone?"

 

"Don't worry about all of that. Now, your reward is... Well..." Avalon looks down at her swimsuit. "I even took the form you desired the most..."

 

"Oh," Fujimaru says. Avalon looks down again before rolling her eyes and getting closer to him. This nearly messes up the dance, but the two switch to just swaying back and forth. ".... oOHHHH!" It finally dawns on the Master what she means.

 

Avalon laughs as she lowers her forehead onto his shoulder. "You are really dense, you know that?"

 

Fujimaru smiles. In his defense, all of this was really sudden. "Sorry... I just didn't think or really know if you..."

 

"In most cases, I do not. But this is a special case. I have a bit of... Her, so..." Avalon says as she lifts her head from his shoulder.

 

Fujimaru smiles as he starts to understand. His smile becomes a frown as he realizes something she said. "Wait, you said you had a warning. What's up?" He asks, and Avalon's smile becomes a frown.

 

"If you keep... If you keep lying to yourself. If you keep lying on those tests... It will become too much." Avalon says quietly.

 

Fujimaru's eyebrows furrow in confusion again. "I don't-" He starts to say on impulse, but realizes that... That's exactly what she's talking about. He looks to the side as he realizes that she's warning him about his self-destructive behavior. His choosing the "right" choices on the psychological tests.

 

He remembers Da Vinci always scolding him about that. Even U-Olga told him he needs to lean on Mash and Da Vinci more...

 

And now the nice embodiment of Avalon herself was scolding him... 

 

As much as he wishes he could answer those questions truthfully. Or talk to Mash and Da Vinci. Or they'll-

 

STATIC

 

Avalon feels Fujimaru's hand tighten on hers, and he misses a step. Her look softens. "Fujimaru, look at me..." she says as he slowly sees the look on her face and sees Cas's soft gaze. "Just... I am just asking you to take care of yourself... That is all."

 

The dance slows before they both stop and hold each other in a hug. "... Thank you, Ca... Avalon." He whispers, correcting himself. She smiles as she wraps her arms around him. 

 

"Sorry, it's not a date like with the other girls..." She whispers as the mustic starts to fade.

 

Fujimaru laughs. "I still don't know what you're talking about..." he says as he lets go of her from the hug. "But you do look really nice." 

 

"Thank you... Fujimaru..." Avalon says, looking up at him, and he smiles at her. He leans down and kisses her. The two close their eyes as they deepen the kiss. 

 

Avalon breaks away for both of them to catch a breath. She smiles at him before he has a chance to open his eyes. "Good night, my Boyfriend..." 

 

Fujimaru is confused by the nickname… But it does sound nice… "Good night, my Star..." He whispers back before he falls back asleep.

 

I do hope you take care of yourself…
