What would it be like if the child Sakamaki brothers were watching a scary movie with mom and they get scared so they go to her for comfort?

Admin Mawile: (*´・v・)

Shuu:

-He’s never dealt with a scary movie before, and it’s probably going to get to him bad. He’s generally a pretty brave kid, but when something does scare him, it ends in him refusing to be alone in the dark for weeks. He sort of tries to act tough, but it’s pretty obvious that he’s seeking out comfort.

Reiji:

-It takes visible effort for him to admit that he’s afraid, and you’ll probably be able to tell that he’s shaken up long before he tells you. Distracting him with a book or just talking to him goes a long way, and it’s best to make sure that he doesn’t feel childish or like a nuisance for needing your attention.

Ayato:

-He hates admitting that he’s scared, and will play tough for as long as possible. When he finally does crack, it’ll probably be through something along the lines of sliding into your bed in the middle of the night and hiding there, stuffed rabbit in his arms even as he still tries to deny that he’s afraid.

Kanato:

-He doesn’t hesitate in the slightest to burst into tears and/or crawl into your lap. He probably is genuinely scared, but at the same time, it’s not like he’s going to miss a chance to get your attention and comfort. He’ll cry for longer than necessary, mostly in an attempt to get you to fuss over him. 

Laito:

-He’s more likely to whine about it than anything, but he’ll only go straight to you for comfort if he’s really scared. At that point, you’ll basically have him glued to your waist, sniffling and having a small crying fit over how scary the movie was. There’s no way he’ll sleep by himself that night. 

Subaru:

-He doesn’t like admitting that he’s afraid, but he will sit there with an absolutely petrified look on his face. You’ll have to turn off the movie pretty quickly and distract him, otherwise he’ll suffer in silence because he doesn’t want to bother you. And he considers needing comfort to be a bother. 

Sub AU Question!! Oh my gosh I’m so excited!! What would be their favorite way to be used or broken? For example, does one of them like pet play or getting hit? This is also for all the boys

Admin Mawile: This is not what I meant by short questions really, but it’s a good one, so I put more effort into this than I probably should have…This is really just the beginning of what I could go into, though, because I have lots of ideas and didn’t want to get too carried away here. 

Shuu:

-He’s more of the sort to lay back and let you do whatever you want to him… without giving away many signs that he’s into it. It’s easier for him if he can pretend like he’s just humoring you, and drawing some true reactions out of him goes a long way to getting that defensive shell to break. Feeling like he’s at someone’s mercy, that no matter how powerful he is, he’s still choosing to hand it all over to a human does a number on him, so things that make him truly feel like he’s lost all control of himself are the best way to go.

Reiji:

-In his case, he pretty much enjoys what he gives. Corporal punishment is an easy one, but considering his history of being beaten over small mistakes, it’s kind of a psychological minefield. He likes having high expectations put on him, and legitimately pleasing his dom by being good enough is almost worryingly satisfying. He has a very high pain tolerance, and can take just about anything physical you can do to him, so humiliation and psychological methods are highly effective. Feeling absolutely debauched really gets to him.

Ayato:

-He’s definitely quite the brat, and a large part of what works on him is putting him in his place. Having rules and reasonable commands with loving intent behind them does a lot. You have to be careful with pain, as anything that gets too close to what his mother did is dangerous territory. He likes to be denied and put in his place, pushed to the limits of what he can take, and left squirming and needy for you and you alone. Putting some cracks in his ego is tough, but highly effective at getting him to calm down a bit.

Kanato:

-A huge part of submission for him is feeling cared for. It means the world to him to be treated like something small and precious. Strict rules and discipline go a long ways in giving him the structure he’s always needed, but you have to be careful to make sure he always feels loved and wanted through it all. Once he’s at your mercy, it would be easy to something to destroy him even further, and your best bet for making the situation work is to treat him like a little doll who’s helpless before you; yours to love and do as you please with. 

Laito:

-As you’d probably expect, he’s highly, highly sexual. He tends to take things way too far way too fast, and something like denial is going to make him more whiny than anything. Basically anything you can do to him arouses him, but the real challenge is navigating the severe trauma lurking below the surface. He’s sensitive to pain (though that’s not to say that he doesn’t like it), and you’ll have to set clear boundaries and rules for him, as well as showing him through your actions that you don’t intend to use him and leave. 

Subaru:

-The idea that anyone wants him enough to put in so much care is downright staggering, and it’s hard to convince him that you mean it. He also has a ridiculously high pain tolerance, but anything cruel or derogatory is just going to bring up bad things. What’s best is to torture him with pleasure; make him feel so good and loved and overwhelmed that it strips down every mental wall he has. Love and reassurance are necessary, and it’s not a bad idea to restrain him so he doesn’t have to feel like he could hurt you.

Ruki:

-His ego makes it very hard to get through to any of this, but he’s fond of more traditional BDSM. Bondage, corporal punishments, and and a total exchange of control are good for putting him in his place, but you do have to be careful not to venture too close to any of his traumas. When it comes to his scars especially, treat him very gently, and make sure that you make the whole experience into something safe. Crushing his ego won’t get you anywhere, but easing him into giving up control will earn you a whole new side of him. 

Kou:

-Due to his particular trauma, you have to be exceptionally careful. Any wrong move could send him spiraling, and ruin all trust between you. Humiliation and pleasure work better than direct pain, but you still have to check in regularly that he’s alright with what you do. A safeword system is essential, and even though he’ll bristle at being coddled in a such a way, it’ll go a long ways towards building up real trust between you. He likes being treated like a little pet and being put in his place in gentle, easy ways that don’t pressure him.

Yuuma:

-A big part of giving up control for him is the physical. Being restrained and forced to stay still and accept what you do to him does a lot to make him feel truly helpless. For all his strength, and for all he longs to protect the people close to him, accepting a submissive position is a tricky, tricky thing. You’ll have the best luck through psychological methods like the aforementioned restraints, and plain old humiliation also works well. You can’t overpower him, but you can get in his head and make him feel like he’s helpless. 

Azusa:

-He’s dangerously open to anything and everything you want to do to him, and the real challenge is getting it through his head that you’re not just going to use him. Being loving in everything you do is essential, as is making sure that you have good rules on what kind of behavior is appropriate. He likes pain of all kinds, and the more you hurt and humiliate him, the more into it he becomes. You could honestly do whatever you want to him, and as long as he feels loved and wanted, he’ll be more than happy to take whatever you give out. 

Carla:

-For all his ego, submission is a tricky, tricky thing. Humiliation gets to him more than anything, and feeling like he’s truly beneath a human is an experience he won’t soon forget. You have to be sort of careful because of his Endzeit, but it’s unwise to treat him like he’s made of glass. Making him feel like he doesn’t have to be the tough, powerful king is the best way to get to his softer side, and with enough time, patience, and work, it’s possible to break him down to the point where he looks forward to not having to think. 

Shin:

-A lot of what gets to him is being forced to slow down and accept that someone else is making the choices for him. He has a massively high pain tolerance, and humiliation can easily backfire, and what really gets to him is the slow, steady process of being broken down and eased into wanting to be yours and yours alone. He’s rather starved of attention, and giving him what he needs while also pressing him to submit and give up control is the way to make real progress. (And to be honest, he’s the one to like pet play.)

Hii, i loved your child AU, can you show me how would the s/m/t bros behave or spend their time when child!Yui is with them? (Please ignore any spelling/grammar mistakes, im not fluent in English)

Admin Mawile: (ノ*゜▽゜*) 

Shuu: 

-He’s as friendly as can be, trying to get Yui to play with him. For the most part, he acts like a happy, normal kid, and unless you tell Yui yourself, she’ll probably never guess that he’s something other than human. 

Reiji:

-Aside from few rather rude comments about entertaining a human being beneath him, he treats Yui rather decently. He’s a bit bossy, but Yui is a rather compliant child, and doesn’t have any problems with following his lead.

Ayato:

-He instantly starts trying to show off, and if it earns him any praise from Yui, his efforts will more than double. He’s not used to have playmates other than his brothers, and he’s beyond excited to meet someone new. 

Kanato:

-He’s a bit of a shy child, and clings to Teddy while eyeing Yui like she’s a threat for quite a while. Eventually, he’ll open up a bit, but it takes some encouragement for him to really accept a stranger as a friend. 

Laito:

-He’s nothing but sweet and friendly to her, and while you can’t be sure how much of it is genuine, it’s pretty easy to tell that he’s enjoying him. He’s a social child at heart, and a friend as sweet as Yui is a very good thing for him. 

Subaru:

-Honestly, he’s probably going to hide as soon as he sees her. He’s not used to interacting with other children in the slightest, and it takes him a long time for him to get used to the idea of having anything close to a friend. 

Ruki:

-While a bit hesitant about trusting new people, he’s certainly not unfriendly, and opens up to Yui soon enough. He’s more likely to try to take the lead than to play like most children, and can get frustrated rather quickly. 

Kou:

-He’s more than a little scared at first, but quickly warms up to Yui’s presence, becoming increasingly outgoing and happy as he realizes that she’ll do him no harm. Someone as gentle as Yui is probably a good match for him.

Yuuma:

-He’s beyond excited to have a new friend to play with, and might overwhelm Yui a bit by being a bit too excited. Fortunately, he gets along with other children well, and quickly learns that he has to be gentle with her. 

Azusa:

-He’s basically the definition of sweet and harmless, and aside from potentially trying to get Yui to hurt him, is as lovable as can be. He can be rather slow, but Yui would never be the type to get mad at someone over that. 

Carla:

-He acts stern and cold at first, but it’s mostly because he doesn’t know what to do. He’s never had another child equal to him before, and doesn’t really understand how he’s supposed to behave with a friend like Yui.

Shin:

-He can easily be too rough with Yui, and will have to be reminded that not everyone is as tough as him and his brother. He likes showing off and getting attention, and will quickly start to love having a friend to play with. 

For the pet au, say that each family was kept together. How would the brothers feel if their owner used a point system with a heigrarchy to give rewards instead of punishments? Who would be jealous, who wouldn’t want to participate, who would be at the top all the time? Would they be more accepting of rewards if they had to compete for them? (Take this in whatever direction you want, sorry if I got too specific)

Admin Mawile: (。・ω・。) This is a very interesting idea!!!

Shuu:

-He’s too lazy (depressed) to care much for the point system, but when he starts seeing that you’re serious about rewarding them, he might try to do a little better. While far from competitive, it’s just basic survival instinct to want to receive whatever kindness you’re freely giving to them. 

Reiji:

-In his mind, this is the perfect opportunity to show his new owner that he’s worth keeping. He goes above and beyond to be flawless, and strives endless to achieve everything you ask of him. Rewards only serve to enforce that this behavior is correct, and that this is the way to get in your good graces. 

Ayato:

-He also tries ridiculously hard to be on top of your chart, but more for the reason of being the best among his brothers. He’s horribly competitive, and will do nearly anything to prove that he’s the well-behaved one. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always go so well, and tends to end in clumsy mistakes. 

Kanato:

-If any of the rewards are direct, non-painful attention, he can be just as competitive as Ayato. He doesn’t care about being better than his brothers, specifically, but staying in your favor is the best reward he could imagine. He also gets jealous of the others very, very easily. 

Laito:

-So you’re going to play that game? Unfortunately, he only sees the attempt at offering them rewards as a way of tricking them into striving for nothing, and while he cooperates on the surface, he’s not likely to believe that you’re being honest for a long time. It just doesn’t seem like something a human would do. 

Subaru: 

-Well, there’s no way he’d ever be the good one. He pretty much gives up on ever being on top of the chart from the beginning, and allows himself to fall behind. However, the first time he actually earns a reward, that all changes. Suddenly, he realizes that you’re serious about thinking he can be good. 

Ruki:

-As much as he’d like to be the best for his owner, he’s afraid that whoever falls behind in the point system will be punished for it. Out of a desire to protect his brothers, he ensures that he’s always the lowest on your system, so that if you have to punish one of them, it will never be anyone but him. 

Kou:

-As soon as he realizes that the point system is a way to avoid being hurt all over again, he’ll do anything to be on top. He’s so scared of being hurt again that it doesn’t matter what he has to do to earn the reward, so long as it means you won’t be as cruel as the people before. 

Yuuma:

-He’s also more worried about his brothers than anything, and even though he would like to earn your happiness, he’s too afraid that doing so would mean someone else getting hurt. He can’t stand that Ruki always tries to take the brunt of things, and winds up doing almost the same to protect everyone.

Azusa:

-In his mind, “reward” is often synonymous with pain. He’s delighted to be good for you and do what you want, but it might be quite the shock when you realize he thinks he was doing it all so you would hurt him. He doesn’t care if you hurt him or be kind to him, as long as you’re happy with what he does. 

Carla:

-He already strives to be well-behaved, and a point system doesn’t do much to change that. For both his pride as a First Blood and simple survival when it comes to not being hurt, he’s good at being compliant and docile. A point system with actual rewards just encourages him to want to do well. 

Shin:

-Even with just one other to compete against, Shin does everything to stay on top. He’s not fond of being bent to a human’s will, but the idea of being better than his brother even in this one thing means a lot to him. Unfortunately, his rebellious nature means he rarely manages to behave better than Carla.

Prompt: Pleading

Character(s): Human Au!Kanato, Reader

Warnings: General DL nastiness

Kanato had never felt so small as when you had him cornered. In front of the strength of a vampire, he’d never imagined being so weak, and yet, you kept him under your thumb as easily as if he was a child.

From drinking your fill from him until his head spun to ripping his clothes off just to hear him scream, Kanato had never been tortured like he had during his time with you. It was humiliating, frustrating beyond all belief, and yet, all he could do was cry and beg you not to hurt him.

Teddy was his only comfort, and the familiar feel of his bear’s soft fur seemed like the only thing that was keeping him from some kind of break.

So Kanato clung to his lifeline. Teddy hadn’t left his arms since you’d introduced yourself as a vampire, and even when you mocked him for wanting to carry around a child’s toy, Kanato had refused to let go. He needed Teddy. He was the one thing Kanato had left to remind him of his previous life, the one thing his mother had ever given him.

The one sign that he’d been loved.

He’d been sitting in a corner alone, murmuring to the bear in soft, low tones, when you’d shown up, crouching in front of him with a predatory grin.

With a shriek, Kanato fell backwards, pressing himself as far back into the corner as possible to get away from you. All you did was laugh, leaning in closer so that Kanato had nowhere to get away from you.

“Why do you carry this ratty thing around, anyway?” you asked, giving Teddy’s ear a light tug, and Kanato barey resisted the urge to scream. No one touched Teddy like that. It was only the fear of being hurt that kept Kanato quiet, kept him from yanking the bear away and pushing past you.

“T-Teddy is mine,” he squeaked instead, pulling the bear closer to him in a tight, nervous grip.

“That’s not what I asked, is it?” you replied, eyes glowing a bit in the dim light. “It’s stupid. You look like a little kid hauling that dumb thing around. Don’t you feel embarrassed, talking to a toy?”

Kanato’s cheeks burned, and he looked down miserably. Of course you’d mock him for having Teddy. Everyone did.

He didn’t reply, turning his head away in a sullen gesture that he should have known would irritate you. Your grin dropped.

The next thing Kanato knew, Teddy wasn’t in his arms.

You stood up, dangling the bear by one arm, and Kanato did scream. He was on his feet in an instant, reaching for his precious toy with both hands, but you easily kept it out of reach, moving faster than Kanato could possibly keep up with every time he made a grab for it.

“Give him back! Give me Teddy!” he shrieked, not realizing that you were making him go in circles as he lunged for the bear.

“Nope~ It’s stupid, so you don’t get to have him anymore. You don’t need something like this. I think I’ll throw him in the trash where he belongs.” You were laughing again, mocking and cruel.

Kanato screeched miserably, frantically reaching for Teddy as you dangled him just out of his reach, but it did nothing. Panic was setting in; were you really going to just throw him away?

“Please, please don’t!” he choked out, feeling like the pleading words were burning in his throat. “Just give him back!”

“Hmm, maybe. How about if you get down and beg me, I’ll consider giving the dumb toy back to you?” you were grinning, fangs terrifyingly obvious, and Kanato could feel the tears burning in his eyes, fear and humiliation burning in his throat, terror choking him with every breath.

Teddy was hanging from your hand, arm squished in a grip that was much too tight. You’d break him if you kept it up.

With a tight chest and nauseated feeling rising in him, Kanato lowered himself to his knees, the hard wood sending a chill through him. He could feel himself choking down his pride, but he bent forwards anyway, tears spilling over as he lowered himself to a pleading position in front of you.

“Please, please give him back,” he begged, voice pathetic even to his own ears as tears ran down his face. “Please give Teddy back to me.”

“Not good enough,” you replied simply. “I want to see that you mean it. I’m not going to give him back if you aren’t serious.”

“I said please,” Kanato howled, ducking his head and choking on a sob. “I’ll do whatever you want. You can have my blood, you can hurt me, anything, just give him back!” The sobs were coming freely now, Kanato’s voice thick with crying, panic making it hard to think.

“Silly boy, I could do all that anyway,” you laughed, “but since you’ve been so obedient, I suppose you can have your toy.” With that, you dropped Teddy in front of him, the bear hitting the ground with a soft noise.

Scrambling, Kanato grabbed Teddy before you could take him away again, moving so quickly that he knew the wood floor would leave nasty bruises on his knees. He clutched Teddy to his chest, curling up and clinging to him, rushed thanks falling from his throat. If he wasn’t grateful enough, you’d take Teddy away again, he feared.

You got bored of his crying after a few moments, and vanished from the room, leaving him to cling to Teddy and sob.

The sickest part was that he was grateful, legitimately thankful that you’d given Teddy back. It would have been so easy for you to throw him away, Kanato knew.

And all it had cost him was his pride.

How would the S boys behave if their mothers were pretty much the same personality-wise but they loved their sons and were more affectionate? Like Cordelia was still a b*tch, Beatrix was still stoic and pushy and Christa was still insane, but they did love their sons and were more open about it?

Admin Mawile: I assume you’re implying that the abuse and such didn’t happen? And I’m also going to have to consider that Karl is decent here too, otherwise I’m sure he’d mess everything up. 

Shuu:

-Without being forced to study constantly and not being given any chance to be a kid, Shuu would have turned out a lot more well-adjusted. Assuming that the Edgar incident didn’t happen either, he wouldn’t be as depressed or traumatized, either. I can see this version of Shuu being a lot like his child self’; happy, cheerful, and nowhere near the tired Shuu we see in canon

Reiji:

-In a situation where he hadn’t been neglected and pitted against his brother, Reiji would probably turn out to be a capable, responsible young man who is much less bitter and cruel than the Reiji we see in canon. He wouldn’t be as desperate to prove himself as superior, for one, and wouldn’t have so much hatred and anger towards Shuu, either. 

Ayato:

-If his mother hadn’t pushed him to be the best from such a young age, Ayato would be a lot different. He’d be much less arrogant and competitive without a reason to feel like he has to be on top, and he’d probably actually be a rather sweet kid, if a bit hot-headed. Ayato is more misguided than malicious to begin with, and with his issues gone, he’d probably not be too bad. 

Kanato:

-It’s honestly kind of hard to imagine what Kanato would have been like if he hadn’t been horribly neglected, but I suppose the answer is that he’d be much more stable. I can imagine that he’d be less violent and possessive as well, since he wouldn’t feel like he had to fight for whatever attention he could get. He’d also probably be more mature, and behave less childishly. 

Laito:

-A situation where Cordelia didn’t abuse him would change Laito’s character completely. He’d have no reason to want to be seen as a “pervert”, and wouldn’t have the messed up ideas on love, either. I see this Laito as being genuinely happy and fun, much like the facade that canon!Laito tries to put on, just with a lot less darkness lurking underneath the surface. 

Subaru:

-Honestly, Christa did love Subaru in canon, I think, but if her issues were toned down to the point where she no longer did him as much damage, his mental state would be worlds better off. With no reason to hate himself or see himself as dirty or corrupted, Subaru’s self esteem issues would be pretty much fixed, and a healthier relationship with his mother would do him well. 

How to you think would be different if the Sakamakis ages were reversed? Subaru being the oldest Shu being the youngest etc

Admin Mawile: (*・∀・)ノ゛

Shuu: 

-As the youngest, Shuu would have a lot of pressure taken off of him. I imagine that, like with Reiji, Beatrix wouldn’t care too much about her younger son, and Shuu probably would have been allowed the freedom he got in canon. Without the whole “first son” issue, his friendship with Edgar could have gone very differently, too. Overall, I imagine that this Shuu would be in a much better place, mentally, than when he’s the eldest. 

Reiji:

-Since a lot of Reiji’s character has to do with his jealousy towards Shuu as the eldest, I imagine that Reiji would be very different in this situation. Not only would he have had the attention that he wanted from his mother, he never would have had to be Shuu’s second best. Reiji would probably be much less jealous and bitter overall, but I would picture that he’d have his sights on the position of heir… and be willing to do anything to get there. 

Ayato:

-I hate to say this, but if he’s not Cordelia’s oldest anymore… then he’s probably going to take Laito’s place. The lack of pressure to be the best would end in a pretty different personality, and the sexual abuse would probably result in a mindset more like Laito’s. I’d have to really think about how Ayato would react to an upbringing like that, but it’s definitely an interesting prospect. A whole different kind of abuse would likely change him completely. 

Kanato:

-For the most part, Kanato would be stuck in the same position he was in canon. As neither Cordelia’s oldest, nor her chosen toy, he’d go forgotten and ignored pretty much the same as what actually happened. I don’t see much of a change in him in this Au, save for his relationships to his more affected brothers. Since Laito would be assuming the position of Cordelia’s eldest, he’d probably be the one that Kanato treats more like a big brother. 

Laito:

-As Cordelia’s eldest, Laito now takes the place of the one that she’s pushing to be the best and surpass her rival’s heir. Laito would have had the same “be the best at everything or I have no need for you” treatment that Ayato got, and a whole lot less of the sexual abuse that made him such a pervert. This Laito would probably be much more closer to his true self, and might not bother with a facade of happy-go-lucky cheer to cover up his real feelings. 

Subaru:

Oh boy. As the oldest son and Karlheinz’s heir, Subaru would have a massive amount of pressure put on him. Much like Shuu in canon, he’d be expected to study constantly and have his personality crushed in order to be a better heir. However, assuming that nothing changed with Christa’s situation, he’d still have all of his canon issues, self hate, violent tendencies, and twisted self image on top of this. This Subaru is likely to be an absolute wreck, honestly… 

How would the boys reacts to overhearing Karlheinz telling their s/o that the boys are treating her just like he treated their mothers, or how their mothers acted around him? I noticed the Sakamaki do act like their parents even though they disloke them…

Admin Mawile: (●>д<) I assume you mean just the Sakamaki?

Shuu:

-It’s too much trouble to worry about, so Shuu puts it out of his mind and tries not to think about it. Even so, the thought that he’s acting like his father hangs in his head for quite a while. He’s doomed to hurt anyone who gets close to him, though, so it’s not like there’s anything he can do to change. 

Reiji:

-The very idea that he could be behaving like his mother makes him want to choke someone. Considering how his childhood scarred him, Reiji would not be pleased with even thinking that he could be acting like his parents. Of course, his ego and pride are much too strong to allow any real change. 

Ayato:

-Hearing that he acts like his parents, even from that man is enough to send Ayato into a spiral of fury and doubt. He can’t stand the idea of being like either of his parents, and the fact that he can actually sort of see how he’s becoming might be enough to make him question his behavior a little bit. 

Kanato:

-Just hearing those things causes a massive tantrum, which he’s likely to take out on you, if only because you’re who’s there. He hates the idea of being like either of his parents, but is far too self absorbed to take the comments to heart. The most reaction that causes is a temper tantrum and tears. 

Laito:

-It does not sit well with him that he could be behaving like his parents. Laito is so locked in his own way of seeing the world that it’s unlikely that he’d change, but hearing that he’s turning into his parents will at least leave a seed of doubt, enough to make him think a little, for a long while to come. 

Subaru:

-Makes sense. As angry as it makes him to hear, he is a horrible, filthy being that only corrupts everyone who gets close to him. It’s just fitting that he’d grow up to do the same things his father did. The thought of it makes Subaru feel absolutely sick, but at the same time, it’s what he’s been expecting.
