I, too, dream of being kabe-don'd

[kinikilig]

Kabe-don (壁ドン)

Kabe-don is a romantic trope seen in various shoujo anime and manga. Kabe means “wall” and don is a Japanese onomatopoeia for the thud of hitting a wall. Usually, this is where a tough (sometimes tsundere) character backs another character against the wall, resulting the latter pounding the wall with their fist with one or both arms. It invokes a cool feeling, making the one being pinned against the wall go all doki-doki like this girl here-- EXTREME KABE-DON!!!

R U L E S:
1. Tag your character with their name and series on the subject line.
2. Tag other people!
3. Indicate which role your character is going to play (the one being pinned against the wall or the one doing the pinning XD)
4. ???
5. PROFIT!

/after 10 million years

[feelallthefeels]

[ She gasped, the scrolls in her arms slipping and hitting the ground with a thud. Yui braced herself against the wall, finding herself making direct eye contact with Yamanbagiri. He had always lowered his head whenever they had talked so she never had seen his eyes up close before.

They were beautiful. So beautiful in fact that whatever she needed to say was lost in her throat, too transfixed at the sight. The saniwa finally blinked, shaking her head as if she were trying to break a trance she was in.

She heaved a breath, finding her voice at last. ]

Yamanbagiri-san, you... I didn't even realize...

[So concerned for her, Yamanbagiri didn't think about how he's directly looking at her with his eyes. This is more important right now. They can't have the saniwa run herself ragged.]

Didn't realise what? How worried you're making us feel about you, Master?

[feelallthefeels]

... Yes. [Her gaze softens, sighing.] I have always worked hard to make up for what I lacked.

I'm sorry, Yamanbigiri-san. The others... they must be mad at me too.

[replicatedform]

[He shake his head.]

... They're more worried than mad, Master. I can't speak for them, but... [A pause, before he continues.] ... If you ever need it, you can always tell us if you need help. I'm--we're your swords. We want to help.

[feelallthefeels]

[ that earns him a smile and a sigh of relief ] I'm so glad.

[ beat ]

I guess I forgot that all of you would help me when I needed it. [ yawn ] I just... didn't want to [ and her eyes start to flutter close ] burden you all... [ and oops her knees are buckling-- ]

[replicatedform]

[He notice. Of course, he would notice. Yamanbagiri's always been watching and observing people, because he's that anxious to see if they're looking at him.

When her knees starts to buckle, his arms drop from either side of her head... so he can hold her by her shoulders.]

Master! Do you need to lay down?

[feelallthefeels]

[ Her first instinct was to shake her head and insist that she was fine but that stubborn attitude of hers was what got them into this mess in the first place.

Yui takes a deep breath, nodding. ] Mm, yes. I'm really tired.

[ Absently, she reaches out, her hands holding onto the front of Yamanbagiri's clothes while she rests her head on his chest, effectively pulling him closer to her. ] So tired...

[replicatedform]

[He freezes on the spot when she rest her head on him. What to do next? He can't let her sleep here like this.]

Y-yes, I can see that. Let me take you to a room first.

[How? Well, he could try carrying her there if she can't walk.]

[feelallthefeels]

[He might need to carry her after all. Yui is pretty much half asleep at this point, leaning her entire weight on him. She doesn't quite hear what the sword was saying anymore, mumbling something unintelligible in response.

The only thing he might be able to hear clearly is his master gently saying his name with a sigh, nuzzling his neck absently.]
