▸ 000   ▰▰ ☆ : ★ TALK TO YOU!

[ NOT PROOFREAD, 2 YEARS BEFORE THE STORYLINE ]

to you, xiao is just a classmate. he’s the quietest one, in fact. you do admit, he is pleasing to look at and is impressive academically. but to be honest, he’s just a guy that sits behind you.

to him, you are the biggest inconvenience of his life. reasons being:

1. you used to tease him for being short when you were children despite only being an inch taller than he is. (his payback is volunteering to swing you on the playground and push you a little too high for your enjoyment.)
2. in kindergarten, you ‘borrowed’ (literally snatched it from him, and it broke) one of his crayons and never returned him. when he snitched to the teacher, they simply said “sharing is caring, sweetie.” (it was the color brown, he was not done coloring a cartoon version of morax’s dragon form.)
3. his prize that he 'fairly earned’ in a christmas party that his family was hosting was snatched from him because you told his father that he cheated (he did, but still!) and you got the reward for being a honest kid because your parents just assumed you wrte the best of friends! (you were.)
4. you smashed his birthday cake on his face when he was crying on your chest because the moment was getting 'too sappy’.
5. your half-brother, ajax, is a nuiscance. literally the most annoying person in the world that he has to deal with. every. single. day.

more utc!

and there are many more reasons that are least significant than these events. you may argue, 'xiao, these are just petty kindergarten things!“, he knows. and this is why he’s embarassed.

he has to shoulder the responsibility of remembering these events because you did not recognize his stupid, bastard child self!

xiao is a shy kid. do you expect him to strut your way and say 'hey, remember when you used to bury me in the sand at the playground when i accidentally fall asleep in it?’ and still have the dignity to show his face to the entire school? no.

all he could do is watch you from afar.

actually, he sits behind you during classes, but that’s besides the point!

xiao, who had a little crush on you when you were children.

xiao, who never came back to the playground ever since you moved to snezhnaya.

xiao, who was overjoyed and nervous when he heard you came back.

he hopes you do remember him. knowing xiao, he was never one to approach anybody. he hopes he’s had significant impact on who you are today. because you did.

xiao was glad you approached him when he was socially awkward at kindergarten.

xiao was glad when you showed up in his 6th birthday party when no one showed up (and also gave him a morax stuffed toy.)

xiao was glad when you slapped one of your classmates when they picked on him.

xiao is still a shy kid, but he was simply glad he spent a portion of his childhood with someone like you.

no matter how ridiculous your ideas are, how stubborn, he relishes those moments.

he wishes he could talk to you, link arms with you, to give you gifts in person, to be your friend again, to be directly by your side.

for now, he’s content by just being the guy that sits behind you

and one day, he will have the courage to speak to you. (and hopefully not embarass himself, but he knows that’s second to impossible.)

˖࣪ ◗ ❝RINA’S NOTES! —- no, i am not back from my hiatus. i just feel like i’ve been making scrawny readers even more desperate. i’m so sorry for discontinuing it. i promise, some of my original ideas will be projected here. the only difference is xiao knew you. i CANNOT do strangers to lovers from scratch.

⸳⭑ࣶࣸ ❝TAGLIST (open)!—-

mentions of murder, $u!c!d3 (not detailed), repost cuz my internet flaked out or whatever

SO I WAS THINKING ABOUT PRINCE ALBEDO (who hasn’t tbh) X FEM! PRINCESS! READER FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES RIGHT (shits and giggles being angst angst angst ha ha)

so the idea was —– the reader is the annoying childhood friend of albedo’s, she got sent away for school or whatever then came back to be ‘ladylike’ (yes the m1s0gyny is on purpose)

AND SO THE ROYAL BALL THING RIGHT

READER MEETS KOKOMI, THE DINNER HAS SOMETHING THEY BOTH DISLIKED AND THEY JUST MADE EYE CONTACT AND LAUGHED (quietly) AND TALKED (whispered) WHATEVER WHATEVER (they needed to be 'polite’ and not 'disturb the others’ or something yadda)

AT THE END, KOKOMI HAD MORE CHEMISTRY WITH THE READER THAN ALBEDO LMFAOA IM SOBBINGNGNRND

I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN I WAS IMAGINING KOKOMI BEING JEALOUS OF ALBEDO AND VISE VERSA

I WAS THINKING OF THE SONG 'BREAK UP W UR GF’ BY ARIANA GRANDE THE ENTIRE TIME

THEY HAD EDITS AND SHIT LMFAOAOD

I’m not gonna do it.

I’m not….

OK OK I AM NOT DOING IT.

or am i

also someone murdered one of the princesses at some point and became a murder mystery and reader was the top suspect. the d@gg3r used for the murder has the same design of the reader’s family crest (reader is the head now) so she just st@bb3d her throat and d worded

feel free to send scenarios in my asks i need to laugh LMFAOSKKDKSD
