Author's Notes: So I somewhat recently finished season one and I think found another obsession. Now I just need to peel myself away from Breath of the Wild (again) to watch season 2…

Also shout out to Kaponos for writing some cute shit that makes me cry tears of joy.

And for those of you who are new to my fics reading this, fair warning; I only write when I feel like it, and I am SO LAZY it HURTS. I apologize in advance.

Thanks to Maxaro for editing.

The morning was not a time to be putting up with being force-fed poisons, but for Akko, it was a part of her daily routine.

Teeth brushed? Check. Shower taken? Check. Poison digested? Check.

However, sometimes she was just a bit hesitant. It wasn't that she hated it, really. There were plenty of times where the effect of the poison was somewhat pleasant. The taste wasn't always all that terrible either. Sucy wasn't always so unreasonable.

The last one had smelled of cinnamon and tasted of apples. But this one… didn't.

"Oh my god, what is that smell?!" Akko asked, pinching her nose closed as she held the vial containing the noxious liquid away from her at a distance. "It's like burning hair and rubber mixed with- ugh, I don't even know what!"

"Don't be such a baby," Sucy teased, her sharp teeth showing through her wicked grin. "It's not that bad." She took a big sniff of the liquid being held out in front of her and chuckled in delight. "Aw yeah, that's the stuff."

"I can smell it all the way over here," Lotte said from all the way across the room, covering her nose with her sleeve.

"Again," Sucy said, "Not that bad. But if you're so disgusted by it you can leave the room, you know." And that's exactly what Lotte did, making Sucy's smile widen as soon as the door latched close. "Now," she said excitedly, turning to Akko, "Drink! All of it, in one gulp!"

This change in emotion happened so fast that Akko barely had time to process it before she was knocking the vial back, pouring the vomit green elixir down her throat. It was slimy, like how you imagine a toad to be after crawling out of a swampy lake.

Then the world suddenly turned a shade of green for Akko, and she felt her entire body shifting. A familiar feeling to her after all of of the animal transformation magic practice she had done, but this time it was different in a way she couldn't quite explain. There was a slight bit of pain, but not enough to really hurt her more than falling off a broom very low to the ground would. Suffice to say, it was nothing on some of the scars she had received as a kid.

Her bones felt odd, which was a feeling entirely absent when she casted the spell. She felt a bit of worry at that, and the worry grew as Sucy's chuckling rose to a mad cackle. Exactly what had she just drank, and what was it doing to her?

Suddenly, Akko felt her limbs shrinking, and her body as well for that matter. Her head warped and her eyes blinked uncontrollably out of synch. She hiccuped once, then twice, and then three times. The next one came out as a croak, and the next thing she knew she was on the floor, staring at Sucy's feet.

"Ribbit," Akko said, covering her mouth in surprise after she did. She looked at her hands, which were now webbed and very much amphibious in nature compared to her normal human hands… "Ribbit ribbit ribbit!" She yelled. "Change me back, change me back right now!"

Sucy picked her up by one of her hind legs, her toothy grin still on full display. "Jeez, Akko, you're looking a little green. Are you feeling okay?"

Akko squirmed in her hold, trying to express just how freaked out she was by wildly flailing. "Do I loOK OKAY TO YOU?! I'M A FREAKING TOAD FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!"

"Actually, you're a frog," corrected Sucy, placing Akko safely in her hand, and bringing her up to eye level. "If it's any consolation, you still look pretty cute." She snickered as Akko blushed, which somehow came through pretty obviously, even in her new amphibious form.

"J-just change me back, please…" Akko mumbled, covering her eyes with her little webbed feet, "we're going to be late for class…"

"Aw, are you sure you don't want to stay like this just for a little bit?" Sucy lifted her up next to her cheek and in a very out-of-character moment nuzzled against her affectionately. It really said a lot that Suzy was only willing to do such a thing while Akko was a frog.

"I-I, uh, well…" stammered Akko. "N-no! Turn me back! P-please…?"

Sucy stopped nuzzling her, her eyes lowering and her grin turning more mischievous. "If that's what you want." She started to bring Akko up to her lips, puckering up quite happily before Akko let out a small yelp and jumped out of her hand.

"W-what are you doing? I said change me back, not kiss me! I-I don't think I'm ready for that…"

Sucy bent down and softly pet Akko along her back, calming the small girl-in-a-frog's-body. "Poor, sweet, innocent little Akko. That's the only way for you to change back." Sucy laughed as Akko's small frog mouth dropped open. "This is what happens to girls who don't get hints."

"W-were they at least big hints?" Akko asked, hoping that she wasn't so blind as to not see that Sucy wanted to move forward in their relationship.

"The biggest," Sucy said dryly. Holding her hand out and letting Akko hop onto it. She brought her up and rubbed at her back once more, watching as her girlfriend rather contentedly enjoyed the contact. "Don't worry, you don't exactly have the best history with noticing the obvious."

"That's reassuring… I suppose I'm ready. But only if you promise to never turn me into a frog ever again!" Akko tried to pull off looking mean, but she severely overestimated a frog's ability to emote.

"I can't promise anything, you're just too cute," Sucy said, her ferocious, predatory features making Akko gulp as she was brought up for the kiss that would turn her back into a human.

As Sucy's lips made contact with the top of her head, she suddenly felt much heavier. A pinkish tint obscured her vision, and her bones felt even more odd than before. Her limbs grew and changed shape, and before she knew it, with a pop and a purple cloud, she was standing in front of her girlfriend, her eyes and lips clenched shut as she was kissed on the forehead.

In a second it was all over, and Akko was left standing there with a sense that she was missing something. Her eyes opened and focused on Sucy's. "W-... was that it?"

"What else would there be?" Sucy asked, smirking and walking out of the room, leaving Akko frozen still.

After all was said and done, she had expected more; and as she followed after Sucy, she realized she had been hoping for more.

It was her turn to start dropping hints, it seemed.
