Felinis: I needed to write this after being tortured by a miraculous ladybug crossover. Not because it was bad... but because it was in French. I also just really wanted to write a magical boy thing... and genderbent fic...

Dangling from a roof by a thin wire was not something Yuri had expected when he woke up that morning. The ground below him is threatening to swallow his body.

"I could use a little help over here!" He yells hoping the person on the roof will hurry the fuck over. He's tempted call on Repede, but knows that would be useless in a moment like this.

"Little busy at the moment." A voice calls through the sound of sword against sword. Take your time princess. Yuri was only hanging upside down while wrapped in wire off the edge of a ten-story building.

No, biggie.

Yuri tries wiggling out of the monster's wire webbing so he can get back in the fight, but he's useless against it. This was not his day. The wire starts to snap and Yuri panics. "Mind hurrying that up?"

"I'm trying!"

God, if he could just move his sword! If he could do that he could finally get out of here and get back in the fight.

"You cannot win against me, I shall destroy you Starlight." The monster they're facing this time mocks and Yuri rolls his eyes. Oh, please. If Yuri got a quarter for every time someone said that, he could pay his rent for a year.

"Go ahead and try." Well, at least Star was handling things up there. He could hear his partner push the monster back. Yuri manages to find the swords hilt and does his best to push on it. He just needs to cut a small opening and get out. Yuri scratches back and forth and a smile slips on his face when he feels a tear in the wires. Yes!

Snap

Fuck. He struggles and finally cuts himself out of the cocoon. He jumps out and claws himself into the side of the building. Yuri huffs in annoyance as he climbs up to get into the fray. As his head peaks over the roof he sees Star stabbing into the joints of spider-man they were fighting. Yuri leaps on top and drives his sword into the head smearing blue blood all over his body.

The monster falls limp as Yuri stands over it boastfully. "Thanks for the help blondie."

Star glares up at him bitterly. "Bite me Lupin." Star presses at the sun shaped pendant on her chest. No nonsense as always. "Estelle." A light burst from the pendant and a small fairy creature stands in front of them. The fairy's emerald eyes look at the creature and she nods.

On it.

Estelle's body morphs and melds with her sword into a new long golden blade that Star grips tightly. "I beseech the stars to bring infinity back to this End." The blade falls into the monster's chest returning it back to its original form as a spider. Yuri looks over the city and once more admires Estelle's power of restoration. Webs vanish and the broken buildings are returned to their prior state

"Well all's well that-"

Stab

"Why the hell did you do that?" Yuri says jumping out of the blade's way as it slowly disintegrates next to his foot.

"Spiders are evil. Just because I purify them doesn't mean I like them." Star huffs as she walks away. Yuri pity's the poor bug that's now lying split in two. One of the highlights of this job was that they never had to murder anything. So much for that. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get going."

"Uh- wait." He grabs Star's hand and tries to give a charming smile even as the touch stings. "Do you want me to help you get someplace while I still have my powers?"

Star pulls away in a quick fluid motion. "Thanks, but no thanks. I'd rather you weren't anywhere near me before I change back." She gives him that warm mischievous smile and his cheeks flush. "You know the rules." Yuri nods sadly and Star pats his cheek before striding off towards the emergency exit. "Then be a good boy and stay there."

It's only once Star is gone that Yuri decides to leave the roof and head back home. He jumps from roof to roof till he's on top his apartment complex. He takes in a breath and releases the power on the gold band on his wrist.

The wolf mask breaks and the elaborate black costume dissolves into a shirt and ratty jeans. Next to him is a large husk chewing on a pipe.

"I think she's finally starting to come around." He says and the dog snorts. Yuri huffs in frustration as they go downstairs. "I don't care if you think it's silly. Star is totally into me!" Repede says nothing, but Yuri knows he's laughing at his expense. If it wasn't for the terms of their deal Yuri would just try and catch Star changing back into whoever she was.

Rules were rules.

Even if those rules made getting an inch within discovering Star's real identity, whoever that may be, impossible. Yuri couldn't explain it, but Star was the first person his mind chose to think poetically about when he couldn't stand those sorts of things. She was just so... captivating.

Those azure eyes that sparked with life and gold pixie hair that shone like the sun. Her body was strong and built while still being delicate. Yuri often wondered how much of Star's appearance was influenced by Estelle like with him and Repede. He knew that the girl didn't actually glow or have skin that burned to touch, but there was a chance that the Estelle made Star's features stronger than they were. Or maybe they weren't. He had no idea what Star's face looked like underneath the porcelain mask that hid her face, but Yuri was sure it was beautiful.

As he entered the apartment and lays on his bed scrolling through his phone. There's a message from his godfather and he listens sadly.

"Hey sport, you said that you wanted me tell you how Karol was fairing this week. Well the doctor said he's doing better so there's some good news. It be great if you could come visit sometime. Don't be a stranger… anyway I hope you're doing well… bye."

Yuri looks at his wrist at that gleaming band. Please… please let this be worth it…

Heavenly Starlight had not been Flynn's choice of superhero name. Far from it. But, the first villain he'd faced called him by that and the name stuck. Flynn's appearance as Starlight wasn't his style either, mostly because he was a guy.

Which was one the reasons Lupin flirting with him was so annoying. That idiot had the hots for a female alter ego that only existed because Estelle happened to be his spirit. Flynn sighed as he woke up that morning stiff from laying on his side wrong. He could smell pancakes cooking as he walked into the kitchen to see a girl with dazzling emerald eyes and pink hair.

"Morning Estelle." He yawned reaching for the coffee maker to pour a cup. She smiled softly and he looked at the stack pancakes eagerly. "You spoil me."

"It's the least I can do." She set a plate and started piling them high for him. "You work so hard even though your life is at stake."

Flynn chuckled taking a sip. "I think that's just more incentive to work." Flynn was all for fighting bad guys and saving the day but, not winding up dead in ditch somewhere was a major plus.

Estelle laughs lightly and his cheeks flush. "I guess you're right." Cosmic deity. Just remember she's a cosmic deity made of energy. The girl is a literal star.

But, a really cute one.

Flynn laughs it off as he sets to eat his pancakes next to her in peace. When he sees that once more she hasn't fixed a plate for herself he frowns. He pushes the plate with the remaining pancakes next to her. "You made them. You have every right to enjoy them."

Estelle discards the plate with embarrassment. "No I couldn't! You work so hard and all I do is mooch off that kindness. Besides, I don't need anything."

" I know you don't. But, I also know that there aren't any pancakes in the Astral plane." Flynn says with a mischievous grin. "You always tell me that experience matters most in this life. So denying these pancakes is denying life." He takes a bite and draws out the happiness he's feeling in a smug manner. "Mhhm. Mhmmm. That's really nice and fluffy."

Estelle huffs. "Fine. I'll them." She takes a cautious bite and smiles. "They're really tasty." Flynn idly watches her enthusiastically bite into her pancakes. Estelle stops a moment to ask him a question. "Flynn... would it be fine if I met up with Lupin today?"

He raises a brow. "Why?" Flynn wasn't a fan of Lupin for many reasons. The man was brash, cocky, foolish, and clearly someone more interested in playing around then getting things done. To Flynn he screamed of that person going nowhere fast.

"Well... um I can't tell you."

"Can't or won't?"

Estelle fidgeted. "Can't... sadly. I would but..."

Rules are rules. Magic powers of the cosmos and the chance for a free wish in exchange for total secrecy and monster hunting. Flynn couldn't so much as utter a word or even drop a hint. If he did then he would be ripped from existence.

Luckily, there were some safety precautions set in place. Humans couldn't see them change and they were invisible to the masses. They didn't show up on camera and Estelle or Repede could easily alter memories if they had to suddenly disappear. Unfortunately, these tricks didn't work on each other. When their power ran out and they turned back Lupin would see Flynn clear as day. In that moment, Flynn would feel his life tear from the world and his mind destroyed till he was an empty thought had by none.

"I'd prefer if you didn't hang out with him, but I won't stop you." Flynn sighed and her eyes lit up. Why did she never shine like that for him?

She jumped up and ran to the door with a skip. "Great! I'll see you later then!" Estelle stopped and ran to the fridge and pulled out a box and set on the counter. "It's just leftovers, but here's some lunch for today." She waved as she ran out the door.

What was she so excited about? Was Lupin taking her to the library? Fat chance. The guy just didn't seem to have the brains for that… or the motivation. He finished his pancakes bitterly and got set to go to university before groaning. He didn't finish his paper because he was too busy fighting monsters. Shit! The only perk to this thing at times seemed to be there was a cute girl always waiting for him at home.

Felinis: I started out with the prologue, but ended up writing this first. Next will be the prologue. I hope all enjoyed. Also, Lupin means wolf... in French
