Inside you are two wolves.

One says that Rei and Kazuki's relationship is not any less meaningful as platonic life partners. There are more ways to be a family than brothers or lovers. It'd actually be very nice to see two unrelated and non-romantically involved men raise a kid together and navigate parenthood.

The other wolf says "okay but I'm queer and would like to see them Smooch."

The Feeling In Your Hand - Boboiboy AU

Warning: OOC

___________________________

It hurts at first...

The day I realized I have lost all the feeling in my hands.

I wanted him to stop, I really did. It was all pointless though.

"You should be grateful to even have a master"

I should have known better. Then maybe... Maybe this tragedy wouldn't have happened, maybe no one would have had to lose their loved ones. My desire for survival clouded my judgement. My existence was doomed from the start.

So why do I exist?

It was a question I have thought of many times. A flawed existence. I couldn't even handle my own power despite it being me.

What's the point then?

I awaited the day my source would simply run out of power, and then I'll be able to fade away for good. I was so sure I had no more connections to this world. My energy can go to my brothers, they need it more than I do.

But then you came into the picture

I can see why the others wanted to bring you back to life so much, but I failed to feel the same as they do.

I feared that, when you grow up, you'll be like him too.

The energy we got from Ochobot was enough to keep me awake, so I opted to simply watch over you, purposely made my unlock conditions difficult so you will give up on me and focus on my brothers instead.

Ironically, it was me who reached out first, but even then, I endangered your life. I didn't know why I even did something so illogical. Only then did I understand how they felt when they almost lost you.

My arrogance had put you in danger, yet you still held my hand. Maybe it's because you don't know what's hidden beneath. Ignorance is bliss afterall.

Only when he returned, did I truly understand how important you've become. The pain was somewhat eased thanks to all the strength I regained, but it still hurts so much, watching as the tragedy from 100 years ago repeat, watching as my brothers despair.

Now that you've learnt of my past, I wonder if you see me in a different light... Master.

"Solar?"

The light element looked up from his book to see his master walking towards him, a rather complicated expression on his face. It has been 1 week after Boboiboy woke up from his coma. They are all recovering from the incident, bandages and all, at least he's well enough to be allowed to walk around now.

"Is something the matter Ori?"

"Is it true you guys get can hurt from your own power?"

"Yes, yes we can if we push ourselves to use more power than we can process. It will cause damage to our physical form. We can gradually heal if we had the energy though"

He could see Original's expression relax a bit.

"May I know why you're suddenly interested in this topic?"

"I saw new scars and injuries on you guys. Rek'taka wouldn't allow you guys to manifest, and you hardly get injured too. I asked Gempa about it and..."

Boboiboy looked at Solar's hands, Solar could already see where this is going. They stayed in silence for a moment.

"Solar... May I see your hands? Only if you want to of course!"

Now this is complicated. No matter what he does, it would confirm Boboiboy's suspicion either way. It's not like Boboiboy isn't someone he couldn't trust, but it's the thing that comes after that scares him, because he doesn't know how he will react.

After what seems like forever, Solar let his gloves disappear in particles of light, revealing the dark, charred hands underneath.

"May I hold your hand?"

This isn't the first time they held hands, but it's the first time they hold hands without the gloves. Solar nods, and Boboiboy reached out, holding Solar's hands in his own. The way he gently held it, and the way he intertwined their fingers together.

"Does it bother you?"

"Huh?"

"My hands, their state. I was so weak I couldn't even handle it, and it came to this"

If he didn't reach out to that child that day, maybe it wouldn't come to this.

"Solar... You know I don't care about that right?"

What is he trying to say now?

"I don't care if you're weak, because it's not true. It must have been really painful, but you endured it"

"I didn't have a choice, and it no longer hurts when you can't feel it"

Boboiboy looked up, and Solar regrets saying that as worry began to gather in his master's eyes again.

"You can't feel it? Can you feel your hands?"

"No, I lost the sensation in them a long time ago"

"Can't you heal yourself? Are you lacking energy?"

Solar shakes his head "No, it's not that. If we repeatedly overexert ourselves, then at one point the damage becomes permanent"

His master's face becomes sad, as he held Solar's hand a little tighter, letting the realization sink in. Boboiboy doesn't care about what Solar's hands looked like, but the fact that he had to suffer for what he didn't want to do.

Rek'taka can say what he wants, Boboiboy will believe what he wants. He believes the elementals deserve to be happy after this whe time. 100 years of mourn and loss, not knowing what happened to your loved ones, isolated must have been a nightmare.

He cups Solar's cheeks in his hands, catching the light element by suprise.

"I have an idea! Let's merge Solar!"

"But you're still recovering-"

"I'm fine now, pretty sure I could handle you"

"Okay. This is your idea. I don't want Gempa to ground me"

Boboiboy smiles ear to ear "I won't let that happen!"

The familiar feeling of the merge flows in his veins, it wasn't cold, it didn't hurt like when he was with Rek'taka. It was warm, and comforting, just like how Boboiboy is. He sees the elementals as his family and is willing to wait for the elementals to step forward, no matter how long it will take. It should be the opposite, because Boboiboy will live a much shorter life than they will, but he waited for them anyways.

Solar decided to go ahead and grab the book he has been reading. Then, he felt the sensation in his hands, the smooth texture of the book, the first thing he felt in more than 100 years.

"So? How did it feel?"

"It's- I don't know, it's so foreign, but not in a bad way"

After that, they had tried feeling the sensation of other things, like water. They tried making a cup of hot cocoa and Solar finally understood the feeling of touching a cup that's way too hot because usually he just holds it (much to the concern of everyone else)

"Can we do this again some time?"

"Sure thing! I'm okay with it, just don't touch a hot cup again"

He chuckles

"I won't"

"Oh ! Morning Haya ! We just trying to figure something out .''

That's Angin who look tried and writing something on the papers that are scatter around on the table .

Api's flashback .

"Fang have you seen that combo that we made?! That was awesome !!" "Yeah ! That's indeed awesome!"

A week ago they went to on a mission and fight some evil aliens together. "Ha!!! I bet I can beat you now !" " In your dreams Api ! You still have a long way to go !"

" Aww come on can't you just praise me that I become better ?" Api joked didn't mean it serious but......

" Yes, you're right. You do become better." "Eh?-Wait what?"

"Your battle style have improve and you are willing to listen my commands. You're more clammer when the enemy starts attack us , you didn't act reckless like before-" Fang shows a soft smile . "You're indeed become better Api ." "Well done ensign ." Api who is not expecting Fang really praise him . Face have become a tomato is flushed by Fang's words.

"HAHAHA-OF CROUSE I HAVE BECOME BETTER ! SO YOU BETTER DON'T WHINE IF I BEAT YOU !!"

" Ha ha ,I'll wait till that day have come . Let's go back to the ship now ." Fang walks toward to the ship leaving Api behind who is trying to clam himself down .

Daun's flashback .

"Daun ? Show me your right hand. " "Eh ? Fang why so sudden ?" 4 days ago in Daun's green house . "You're wounded aren't you ? " " No I'm not-" " You're a right-hander but you have been using your left hand for days and when i mention that i want to look at you right hand you hide it behind you back ." "I apologies if your hand is fine, can you please show me ?" "......"

Daun take off his glove and show his hand to Fang . His hand have some cuts on it , it's look purplish around the cuts . "What the - Daun I'm taking you to the infirmary -" " No don't -I'm doing an experiment ! " "What ? " "I'm trying the herbs that grows on the other planet that I use my power grow , trying the effect according to the book . My hand just have some wound that time so I try the herbs on me so I can make more healing supplies - um Fang why are you looking me like this ?" Fang who is horrified what Daun have just told him . "So let me get this straight- You just applied the herbs that is used on alien on yourself ?!?! And you're trying the effect from a book you read ?!?!?" "Yes ? And I'm fine -"

"No you're not ! That doesn't look 'fine' to me ! " Fang pulls Daun along with him heading to the infirmary . After a while, both of them are in the infirmary . The silent fill in the room as Fang applying the cream and bandage on Daun's hand . " I just want to be sure. " "Hm?" " Fang do you know that some plant can be a poison and a cure the same time ?" "I'm afraid that I accidently make something that is poison ,so I test the supplies on me first -" " Daun. "

Fang spoked . "I understand that you want to ensure everyone's safety but that does not mean that you can risk yours ." Fang have finish patching up and gently hold Daun's hand . "You're healer and a fighter . You fight for protect and heal for help ." " That does not mean that the others aren't strong enough that you have to worry." "So Daun -" Fang reach out his hand to pets Daun's head . "Have some faith on us and please don't do something like that again . Alright ?" "........" "Daun your face is burning up -" "I'm-m fine, Fang ."

Angin's flashback " Hey Fang ! Catch this !" " What-? Cookies?" Yesterday in Fang's ship (Lily) . "I bake them for everyone. Yours's a bit different, I have add something special in it~."

".......It's poison ?" "hu- How dare you suspect me put something like this ?" "I'm hurt by your words Fang ! How dare you ?" Angin dramatically move backwards and place a hand on his chest as if it's really hurt him . " Well sorry for that because you have pranked me many times ."

" Well -it's still rude to said that !" "Yeah yeah ,lets hope you didn't put something weird in it." Fang took a cookie and eat it. "!"

"Hehe! Those are carrot cookies ! It's seem like it suits your taste ." " That's delicious ! Thanks Angin !" " Your welcome Fang ! " Angin shows a big smile to Fang by Fang's feedback . "......Do you know that Cahaya have told me about that you have a great smile ? I agreed with him." "Ha?-" " You might be a playful person but you really will bring joy to everyone while you having fun . Your smile always light up the mood Angin." "Um- thank you ??????" Angin can feel his face starts to heat up . "I'm going to take my leave now-" Angin quickly leave the ship while Fang is confused by his reaction. "Ok?- huh?!?!"

"Cough !-Cough !- Angin get back here ! How dare you put wasabi in the cookies !!!!"

"So you guys are telling me that you guys want to make Fang flushed to get back what have he done to you guys . Am I'm correct ?"

"Yes . "

Three of them said in union .

"I don't think I can help you with that ,also- "

"Daun later show me the book that you mention and don't you dare to do some thing like that again."

"Ok, sorry Haya."

"Haya, have Fang ever make you flushed ?"

" Yeah quite a lot but I already get used to it . And besides ........"

" Now you guys bring this up - I just remember I do have made Fang flushed before but I also end up -...... neverminded it's not something interesting- ."

Cahaya's flashback . In the training room . "Cahaya are you alright ? " "Huff- huff- that's not enough ! I want to spar again !" " No offense , you look like you're going to pass out any second and I want to rest now so-" "Let's have a break now ok?" "......Fine-" Cahaya lies down on the floor as Fang joins him beside him. " So haya, Why so sudden ask me to spar with you ?" ".......I want to explore my power more . I only have start to use it almost a year when my brothers are already use them many years ....... Well- Daun have already can control his power better and use it in combat." " I'm a bit scared that I might left out and Tanah have already want me to stay away from the mission because he's worry to lose me ......again." "If I spar with my brothers they might get hurt or saw how unstable my power is.Or they might hold back themselves." "So I come to you mainly because of this but also you power can engulf most of my power . So I can use it without worrying to much."

Cahaya spoke all his worries to Fang . "......You know ? When Tanah told me that he wants you to stay out of the missions ...... I actually agreed with him." ".......I'm sorry what ?" Cahaya sit ups immediately when he heard what Fang just said . " I have watch you get throw to the space twice and in coma for 3 months ." " I'm sorry Haya .I know how you wanted to join the missions before you get your power but I just -" Fang's words got cut off when suddenly Cahaya is on top of him. Pinning him to the floor further . "Wait ! Haya what are you -" "Why ?" "Huh?" "When you agreed with Tanah , how come I didn't saw or heard you bring this up ?" "......I can't " "Why ?" "Because I know how much you wanted to be part of the mission and -" Fang turn his face to the other side while blushing . "a part of me tells me I don't want you to leave , I want you to stay ."

Cahaya who remain on top of Fang while processing what Fang just said. " I'm sorry- what ?-" " I still want to see you every day , it's lonely that I have to miss you before you come to the station ." "I don't want to go through that again ." Cahaya watch flushed Fang tried to struggle out his hands that he have hold in order to pin him down . Cahaya feel like he could have a heart attack now . " ........Well- that's one more reason that I want to become stronger !" Cahaya tried to remain clam while saying this . " That's because that I also envy my brothers can do a power combo with you and -" Cahaya can feel his voice is trembling " They can carry you ." "Ha?- Haya-I " It's Fang turn having heart attack now . "......." "Have you guys done yet ?-"

"AHHHHHH!!!!! " Cahaya immediately let go of Fang. "Cough -Cough -Sai they're having a moment there -" "SHIELDA ?!?!? HOW LONG YOU GUYS BEEN- " "Cough- Cough - when you pin Fang on the-" "AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!".

.

.

.

"So that's basically what have happened -"

"Um-guys ? Why are you covering you face-"

"Cahaya you win "

Angin shows a thumbs up .

"that's so bold Haya , both of you are "

Daun burry his face further.

".......Are you sure you guys are not dating-"

"Api no-"

Cough Cough

That escalated quickly

Fang just has that charm, but noone can beat his charm other than Cahaya

Sheilda just watching like some type of show, she must've been really invested and probably berated Sai for interrupting, now she will never know what would happen afterwards

Sad

And yes, quite bold of you Cahaya

I love the fact that the Addams would totally support Wednesday if she chose to date Enid. Obviously, they would have no problem with the gay part, they don't give a shit about that, but they wouldn't even have a problem with the bubbly pastel aesthetic. Maybe at first, they'd be slightly off put but the Addams have shown time and time again that they can deal with bright colours if it means that their family is happy.

She reads a normal, happy book to Pubert even though it's not to her taste, she doesn't understand why her baby is acting this way but she's going to support him.

She judges Debbie for her colour palate but before that, she still would have welcomed her into the family because Fester was in love, and if her family is happy she will put up with a colorful aesthetic

She welcomes Margret into the family even though they share nothing in common but since she makes cousin IT happy she doesn’t mind at all.

Time and time again Morticia has shown that she supports who her family chooses to love, the Addams family is open to everyone

Man, Yamaha doesn’t make em like they used to. LOVE this vibe.

The Button Meowth saga continues!

“Lady Tilda and the Dragon”

Or “Mom Knight” which is what I kept calling it for most of the time I worked on this. This was my story for Valor, a fairy tale anthology I was in last year! It’s a really great book, and I’m so glad I got to be a part of it. You can purchase a copy here.
