More Than a Name (Ban x Reader/Soulmate AU)

*GIF not mine*

Summary: While escaping from the Holy Knights who are chasing after not her, but the name on her wrist, YN runs into the last person she expected to see so soon: Ban, her soulmate. 

Author’s Note: This is my first x reader/overall fanfiction that I have ever written, so please be nice:) (and I wrote it at 3:00 am using speech-to-text cuz I’m lazy so…) I do realize it is a little, you know, terrible, so I apologize, but I just wanted to finally write something for once in my life that wasn’t for a class. Anyways, onto the story!

Word count: 1884

        People were lined up and down the main street of the town like a bunch of impatient ants waiting for food. YN knew this was a waste of their time, and nervously scratched the skin just below the leather bracelet on her wrist. Ashamed, she watched as her neighbors were grabbed harshly by their right arms, inspected, then shoved away with unnecessary force as the Holy Knights reached for the townspeople next in line. YN knew what they were looking for too; it was people like her. Those with one of the names of the Seven Deadly Sins gracing their flesh.

       Months ago, Great Holy Knights Dreyfus and Hendrickson had asked that the soulmates of the Sins give themselves up for the greater good of Liones. The Knights wanted to use the Sins own perfect partners against them, use them as human bait. When no one had admitted their affiliations, the Knights decided to invade towns one by one, searching for leverage on the Sins in soulmate-form to goad them to surrender their lives up for capture.

       Now, as YN lay in wait inside her small home near the town square for a Holy Knight to knock down her door and kidnap her, she decided to return to packing and not give up hope. She had been distracted by the small glimpse of her fellow townspeople waiting in a line for nothing, and finally realized that if she had made eye contact with any one of them, she would be done for. Shoving the last of her shirts into her heavily-packed satchel, she laced up her brown boots and headed for the back door. Her pants sagged slightly, so the girl removed the decorative string from the V of her blouse and wrapped it tightly around her waist through the loops of her pants, constricting her airways slightly but ensuring her clothing security. YN knew that she would have to move swiftly, so there would be no time to fiddle with the loose riding pants she had stolen from her neighbor. Sure, thievery was bad, but YN’s survival depended on it, and her strict wardrobe of work skirts and flowy blouses would not make for quick travel.

       Just as she slinked out of her home's second exit, the young woman heard the last thing she wanted to hear shouted across the square. Over the top of her house and through the alleys of the buildings beside it, a Holy Knight declared, “We are looking for a YN YLN.” Like a deer in headlights she froze while observing her clean escape, the forest behind her home, with wide, fearful eyes. Deciding hastily, YN took a chance and made a run for it, loudly shouldering through branches and stomping on twigs as she rushed past the trees. She had no idea where the blurs of brown and green around her led, or even if they ended, but the girl decided she would rather be eaten by a rabid bear than be endlessly tortured and waiting for her outlaw of a soulmate to save her from the clutches of the dastardly Holy Knights. The racket she was making in the woods could have never been quieted by the mumbling lines of people in the town, and YN knew that, so she sprinted harder than her legs could take, muscles burning from the taxing movements. Just when the young woman could no longer hear the steps of her pursuers over her own heaving pants, she burst into a clearing and screamed at the sight of a giant and it’s ginormous, green pet pig, adorned with a building for a hat. YN screeches in fright once more when she tries to backtrack herself, only to notice the Holy Knights once again, directly on her tail. Suddenly, her feet are dangling in the air as YN is enclosed in the gentle, almost tender grasp of the female giant behind her.

       Giving YN a calming smile, the human colossus states, “Hi, there, I’m Diane.” She gestures to herself before pointing to YN’s followers and asking, “Why are you being chased?” YN’s eyes widen in recognition at the name before glancing to the side at Diane’s pet pig, only to see three more curious pairs of eyes blinking from atop the animal along with a second, smaller pink boar.

       However, YN is no idiot, so when she makes eye contact with her fated lover, the first words out of her mouth is “Shit,” muttered under her breath. Fighting her urge to struggle within the giant’s grasp, YN looks at Diane once more before stuttering out, “Please help me.”

       During all of this, Ban’s ruby eyes grow in offense at YN’s first word, asking, “Should I be insulted? ‘Cause I feel insulted.” YN cannot hold back an eye roll at his dramatic statement during her personal crisis. Shocked at her brazen action, Ban goes rigid and drops his jaw. Meliodas, YN assumes, smacks Ban on the arm to bring him back to the matter at hand, which is chasing off YN’s pursuers. Meanwhile, the young girl fights off her newfangled urge to throw up after discovering her fear of heights in Diane’s grip.

                               ~Timeskip~

       After Ban and his blonde companion accomplish their job of beating Knights into submission and fear, the last soldier that had followed YN limps away while shouting, “We will kidnap every last one of you Sins’ soulmates, just you wait!” before rushing back into the forest faster than lightning. This act causes YN to ponder if that was some special ability of his, or if it was just his inner-wuss taking control in fear of retaliation on the Sins’ behalf. The gray-haired female, who YN has learned was named Elizabeth and was also a princess of Liones (all while boredly waiting for the Sins’ return), gasped in fear at the Knight’s bold declaration.

       Gowther, the last Sin to leave the Boar Hut at the sounds of the battle’s ruckus outside, gave a resounding “Hm” while inspecting YN after the statement. The remaining Sins all shared a conjoined moment of understanding, their mouths forming ‘oh’ shapes as they turned their gazes to the young girl, eyes tracking as they watched Diane finally, finally, return her to the forest floor.

       YN clenched her teeth as she awkwardly stood in the spotlight of the group’s scrutiny. Chuckling nervously, YN slowly backs away as she spouts, “I don’t want anything to do with you guys, I swear. I don’t even know why they were after me, they had the wrong girl.” Her eyes quickly moved from person to person, warily watching to see if she had convinced them. 

       Ban easily noticed that she was lying and joked, “Wow, if you really don’t like your Sin of a soulmate so much, you must be Gowther’s!” He laughs over dramatically at his wisecrack to ease the tension, but when YN swallows and laughs anxiously once more, Ban has another epiphany and declares, “Holy shit, I was right!” YN’s eyebrows raise at his obliviousness, but quickly lower when Ban approaches her. His plan soon becomes evident, as the albino wants the pair of lovebirds to meet via him dragging YN to her impassive “soulmate.” This idea, however, is quickly shut down when YN flinches away from Ban just as he is about to grasp her wrist. The Sin of Greed is surprised and worried by her actions, concerned he has hurt her in some way. Meliodas, ever the gentleman, hurriedly reduces the thick atmosphere by ordering the large, green pig to burrow into the ground. YN has no time to be startled, as she is quickly ushered inside the building on top of the hog. Diane remains outside, talking quickly and silently with the Sin of Sloth, occasionally glancing through a window at the gang inside. As YN steps through the doors of the cozy bar and gazes around in pleasant surprise, she gives her attention to the Sin next to her, Gowther, who opens his mouth to state something.

       Before the pink haired man can speak, however, Meliodas shouts, “Gowther, Elizabeth and I need to talk to you!” before dragging his soulmate and his fellow Sin out of the room, winking at YN and slamming the door. Flinching at the loud bang before rolling her eyes in exasperation, YN acknowledges what she must do. She takes a seat on a stool of the bar and gestures for Ban to do the same.

       While slowly lowering himself into his seat, Ban decides to exercise basic human decency by asking, “So, what’s your name?” YN shuts him down immediately, shaking her head.

       Pursing her lips, she vaguely proclaims, “I don’t want to say until I see.” She adds quietly, “Can you show me your wrist...please?” Her eyes are almost sad as she watches him confusedly flash his wrist to her, and YN presses her tongue to the roof of her mouth to prevent her gasp. There it is, her own scrappy handwriting gracing his pale skin in harsh, permanent ink. The young girl inhales slowly, but she knows it is not enough oxygen as her lungs burn and she begins to feel lightheaded. Still, she decides against the act of loudly inhaling for fear of drawing his eyes to her, unknown to YN, pleased-looking face.

       Slowly, the young woman gently hovers her fingertips over the marking of her name, just far enough away that neither of them could feel the promised “sparks” of first soulmate-contact. Almost unwillingly, YN pulls back and finally makes eye contact with Ban again. She wants to commit his beautiful, red orbs to memory, and attempts to do so as she slowly unlaces her leather bracelet, smiling faintly when the act draws his eyes. She wants to remember them, and she knows that for a fact.

        ‘At least if he doesn’t like me, I could still remember something beautiful from this moment,’ she tells herself, admiring his white lashes as well. Tearing away the bracelet like a Band-Aid, she uncovers his own name on her wrist, written softly in cursive. It’s perfectly imperfect, as it’s his complete opposite; while he’s often erratic and wild, YN finds his name on her wrist comforting.

        Ban becomes still the sight, but YN scrutinizes his reaction even more, preparing to book it out of there if need be. Slowly, Ban reaches out to touch his own name, almost in disbelief of the view before him. Sparks flow up YN’s arm and throughout her whole body after he makes contact, and a warm, tingling feeling follows. It’s like a combination of adrenaline and anticipation, she notes, and it finally settles in the pit of her stomach. This time around, YN cannot withhold her gasp, and Ban’s face slowly raises to reveal a smile. Not a cocky, irritating smirk like the ones she had seen printed on his wanted posters, an expression he normally wears, but a genuinely happy, almost teary-eyed grin. 

        With her eyes on him, he whispers softly, “I found you,” while tenderly rubbing his thumb back and forth across his own name. No longer fearing rejection, YN is ecstatic as she returns his smile full-force.

Four Knights Of The Apocalypse (4KOTA + Spoilers)

I don't know why people complain about Tristan X Isolde when in this panel

We see Tristan and Isolde holding hands

If this doesn't say they have feelings or at the very least care for each other in a way that is different from others I don't know what to tell you

I know, I know!

I've been away for a while, but I'm not empty-handed!

.

As they say, you can never have too much Tristan. So I give you this handsome boy today.

.

You can also put him on your wallpaper)))

.

🌵 Please enjoy! 🌵

Р. S.: Click for better quality))

I've had this comic in my head for a long time and now I've got it! It's my first comic, so it may not be perfect, but it doesn't matter....

.

Explanation:

The moment when Zel finally realises that always showing the stone is pointless.

.

P.S.: I think Mel would be kinda happy that his little brother finally started winning at their favourite game... )

.

🌵Please enjoy!🌵

How do you think lancelot was for the past two years after percival death? What do you think his reaction will be once percival wakes up?

Firstly, I would like to apologise for taking so long to reply!

Secondly, I've had thoughts about Lance over the last two years. The first thing that came to mind was that he was probably grieving for Percival, but I dismissed that as Lancelot wouldn't have sat idly by for that long (I guess). So I'm now of the opinion that he's probably looking for Gwen, if he hasn't found her already. She said he would visit her often in the future, but now how is that future that Guinevere was talking about happening.

About Percy, I've imagined the scene of their meeting many times and it invariably ends with Lancelot weepingly hugging his younger brother dear friend while he pities him, saying he missed him too....

I finally got my hands to paint, so I thought I'd introduce you to a relatively new character we've all been waiting for!

.

So, Tioreh is the seventh and youngest daughter of King and Diana!

.

🌵Please enjoy!🌵

Quite a while ago I did a post about the grown up 4kota, and now I realised that I don't like the way Lance looks there, so I decided to redraw the grown up version of him....

.

P.S.:I really want Lancelot to have long hair like when he was a kid...😖

Ahem.

Long time no see...)

🌵I've had this idea in my head for a long time, after chapter 130 came out. At first I wanted to draw a comic, but I decided that it would be very long since I have no experience...🌵

Anyway, my hands have only just got to it now.

.

🌵 Please enjoy! 🌵

Ohhhh no!😭 Poor Lance, it's not your fault!

.

Just recently I was abstracting this point on my blog. I think that might be the answer for you, dear anonymous. And for me in particular.

I'm sorry, but I can't help but celebrate this cute detail! 😖

Fucking hell!

I've only just noticed that in the village where the ale is made (sorry, I can hardly spell the name without making a mistake).

I wonder how the people there survive if there's no way round it?!

Judging from this frame we can tell it wasn't a full timeskip, I mean then it should be 2 years later. I think that's going to happen in like 5 chapters probably.....

Oh, shit!

Nakaba did a great job! Just look at the incredible view!

Spoilers chapter 128!

Ohhhh noooooo!!!

It's so sad! Percy blessed himself with everything after Mortlach's words, and then the spirit of life left Percy's body, leaving a corpse....

I'm sobbing like the last bitch right now! 😭😭

Ahem...

So, I've had an idea in my head for Tristan's new clothes for a long time, so I drew concepts for his updated outfit.

.

P.S.: Generally the main idea was just his jeans(yes they are jeans), boots and shirt, so you can't concentrate too much on the strap...😅🥲😑

So here Percival is a prince, just like in the King Arthur mythos. There he was born and raised in Wales, probably in the manga his home kingdom was this place...

.

P. S. : Someone decided to have 7 kids too😅, Diana and King are not the only ones like that... .

Wait a minute. Ironside knew that Percy the Immortal wanted to salt Diodra's soul into his body. But then why did he seriously think he killed Percival in the first chapter? 🤔

Now I can see where the phrase "Vaz Zigra" comes from.

I found another reference, I think. But unfortunately no way I can remember where I saw it, I'll have to reread the chapters…😅

I remember when I read the manga, that moment was really good. Just knowing Percy now, he might even help an enemy, but back then it was cute!

I finally made it to episode 4. Now, as usual, a few of my thoughts.

Aawww! Baby Nasiens is so cute and innocent! 😖

And I left the sweet stuff for last!

OH, MY GODS! NASIENS IS SO BEAUTIFUL! I loved his voice so much! 😫😭

I loved the soundtrack in the Camelot moment. Also those shots are really well drawn.....

I know the anime is basically quoting the manga, but still.

It's so cute that before attacking Pelgarde Percy asked permission and then thanked him. 😅😖

All right, all right!

Hear me out first! I've had some thoughts about Lancelot.

.

Okay, I think everyone's read the last chapter of SDS about Lance's disappearance and Jericho. At the end, there was a line about Lancelot returning under the moniker "prince of the lake."

.

But the question was raised in some people's minds "how?" if Lance himself said that no one, after fighting him, was left alive.

.

And now in the last chapter, Lancelot fights Nanashi, and when he saw Lance's magic, he realised its nature.

When the battle was over, Lance didn't kill Nanashi, they became friends.

.

So, my theory is that it's Nanashi who starts the rumour about Lancelot, which gives him the nickname "Lakeside".

Lance has finally found the weapon that Dubs created. But it probably won't stay with him for long.....
