So I wanted to write an Elsword charxreader AU story, so here it is! Let's just add more to my workload! :D
The pairing is to be decided, so I'll have a poll to decide. Until then, enjoy the various Ship Tease with ANY character.
Elsword: Sheath Knight
Aisha: Battle Magician
Rena: Grand Archer
Raven: Reckless Fist
Eve: Code Electra
Chung: Shelling Guardian
Ara: Little Hsien
Elesis: Grand Master
Add: Psychic Tracer
AN: The blank spots are where your name goes! There are also various references that I put in the story from webshows and video games! See if you can see what they are!
The Light! It BURNS!
God damn do you hate sunlight. Whenever you're not dragged out of bed by your brother to engage in a deadly fight that includes a pillow and a cereal box so he can take you to school, you're holed up in your apartment, facing your beloved laptop with your cat on your lap. This was one of those days. Your Tumblr was shockingly inactive and Youtube was quickly getting boring, so you had three options:
1) Go to sleep until your bro gets home and face his wrath for not attempting to clean up the living room from your mess.
2) Listen to your ipod and read some fanfiction or some of the books on your massive bookshelves in your room.
3) Call someone or check skype and bug them.
You weren't a fan of Option 1. While your ipod was next to you on the coffee table, you didn't want to disturb Doctor Sully. While your brother was somewhat opposed to naming your cat Doctor Sully, you stood by the name until he backed down. And that required a strife to decide if his name would be Doctor Sully or Agent Fluffles.
The sad thing about his name however, was that he was not a doctor, nor was he a fluffy blue spotted monster. So it really made no sense. But did you give a shit? No, [Name] [Last Name] never gives a shit. No one in this family gives a shit. Eventually you went with option three, and proceeded to go on skype and look for a friend of some sort. But that's the problem. You only have three friends, only two are in school with you. Those two are Ara Haan, the sweet, adorable wallflower of an exchange student that managed to encourage you out of your shell just a bit, and Chung Seiker, a science geek.
The last remaining person on your friends list was Eve. She was almost always on, but she tended to ignore any skype messages you sent her way, so she was pretty much out of the picture. She was so cold and emotionless, almost like a robot. But you've thought about Eve being a robot more than once, and all you have to say is that it's the stupidest thing you ever thought of, even worse than your late night coffee-fueled tumblr posts.
So you decided to bug Chung.
[Skype]: Hey Chung.
Chung: Oh! Hey [Name]! I'm surprised you actually saw I was on.
[Skype]: Chung, even though you're invisible and it doesn't look like you're on, I know how to check and make sure you are on.
Chung: Yeah, yeah. So, you gone outside today?
[Skype]: Har har, Chung. You know me.
Chung: But it's nice out today! If I can step out of the lab for a day, you can too.
[Skype]: Hell. No.
Chung: Yes.
[Skype]: No.
Chung: [Name] pleaaaase?
[Skype]: Nada.
Chung: Then I'll just come over there and drag you outside.
[Skype]: CHUNG NO.
Chung: Chung yesssss
Chung then proceeded to log off and send you into an internal panic.
[Skype]: CHUNG?
[Skype]: CHUNG STOP FUCKING WITH ME GET BACK HERE.
[Skype]: DO NOT COME OVER TO MY HOUSE SEIKER!
[Skype]: Fuck.
You have given up all hope and have huddled into a ball of blankets inside a small hastily made pillow fort. When Chung comes over, the sun flies into the room and nature seems to gather around him. Him and his best friend Rena. You honestly don't get those two, and are currently questioning your friendship with the young wealthy geek. Doctor Sully was positioned as your pillow. His plump belly made an excellent pillow, and it was nice hearing him purr when you snuggled deep into his belly. As long as you didn't bump into his bad leg, he wouldn't claw your face. He'll claw anyone's face. Anyone's.
The doorbell jolted you from your thoughts and you looked at the door in fear. He was here, and the light was going to burn your eyes. The door opened and you buried your face into your Sully-pillow, refusing to meet Chung's eye.
"Jesus [Name], it's really dark in here. Where are the windows again? I haven't been to your apartment in ages."
You groaned in response, bracing your eyes for the onslaught of light that was coming in 3...2...1...
"Aha! Found 'em!" The light engulfed the room and an inhuman sound came from your throat as your eyes began to burn and you rolled up into your blanket ball like a pill bug, sending Doctor Sully fleeing across the room (along with knocking down your fabulous fort) to hide behind the couch. Chung laughed at your reaction, causing you to grumble and slide your hand out to flip him off. His footsteps reached your blanket ball, and he slowly peeled each layer off.
"This reminds me of Shrek peeling a giant onion."
"Do you know how fucking happy he would be? Because I'm not."
"And I forgot that onions make people cry.." He sniffed, the damn actor.
Your head shot up, being the person who doesn't give a shit, yet cares a lot, you were once again blinded by the light and you squinted your eyes at Chung's tall figure. He used to be insanely short and feminine, you remembered. Now look at him. Adorable and dorky and-
Woah. Stop those thoughts, [Name]. Seriously. There's not a decided pairing yet. Calm down.
Anyways, he ends up dragging you outside after you throw on a pair of sweatpants and your Jelly Kid shirt. Hot damn do you love that shirt.
"So, where are we going exactly? I don't wanna be out in this godforsaken sun anymore." You grumbled, lowering your head and silently wishing he had thrown your hoodie at you as well.
"Aw, come on, [Name], we're not going to be gone for long. I just want you to get more oxygen and Vitamin D in your system. You don't need to be such a vampire."
"I like the night."
"You freaking Malkavian."
"Damn straight." A smile came to your lips. That was one thing you loved about Chung. He understood you more than Ara did-you can actually fangirl about video games and anime with him, while you geek out about books with Ara. It was one of the reasons you were friends with her.
"So, where are we going?"
"To a friend's place."
"Oh great, people."
"It's a cafe. Of course it's going to have people, it's rush hour."
You groaned and Chung laughed, tapping your shoulder and guiding you over to a small cafe.
"Sieghart Cafe? As in Elsword Sieghart?" You internally screamed. You hadn't hung out with Elsword and actually avoided him, due to him being one of the biggest pranksters in your high school. His sister was a bartender downtown when she wasn't working at the cafe or sleeping. You admired how she could keep up with everything, you'd have a mental breakdown, and you know it.
"Yeah, Els's place. You know him?"
"No. We don't even talk, you know that."
"Right, right. I forgot everyone in high school except for Ara and I are idiots," He grinned, opening the door for you and bowing. "Please, enter."
You rolled your eyes and stepped into the cafe, the smell of coffee and cinnamon slapping your nose in the face just like when you entered Ara's house, when the scent pretty much attacked your nose. But now's not the time to talk about that.
"Yo, Chung!" A flash of red and suddenly your heart lept into your throat. There he was, Elsword Sieghart in all of his red-haired glory, with a cocky smile painted on his face. The moment you made eye contact with him you looked away-he made you nervous.
"Hey Els. This is [Name]."
"Yeah, I've heard about him/her. Besides, I sit next to her/him in Science, and she/he makes a shit ton of smartass comments under her/his breath. It's hilarious. So, are you two..?"
"No." You said quickly, looking Elsword right in the eye. Chung chuckled and gently elbowed your ribs.
"You know you want me."
"Chung, shut up." You glared at him and he and Elsword burst into laughter, drawing attention from the other customers. Elsword grinned and showed you two to your seat.
Human Interaction, man. Human Interaction.
So that was chapter one! I'll make the chapters gradually longer when this gets noticed, and I have a poll on my profile! So go check it out to vote for a pairing!
