AN: We are approaching the end of this fic! I think I can wrap it up in one chapter. Next update will be for Wildlife Archives on Friday or Saturday and should and that fic. Then Monday or Tuesday another update for Secret admirer which leaves the last update for this fic (Videocalls) for somewhere between Wednesday and Friday next week.
Here are the votes for those who missed the results and a bit of info on how much is left.
Secret 15 - I'm guessing this has about 6 to 8 more chapters left but it all depends on how things go because my writing tends to do its own thing and go all kinds of ways.
Video 14 - 1 chapter to go.
Wild 10 - 1 chapter to go
Ride 9
War 7 - 2 Chapters to go
Unexpected 7
Hybrid 4
Host 3 - likely 4 chapters to go
After I'm done with Video-calls and Wildlife Ride the Wind and This is WAR! Will take their place. This is WAR only has 2 more chapter to go and will be replaced by When the unexpected happens. I hope to get more done so I can get most of my ongoing fics finished and can start some new work because my plate is too full right now to add more to it so I don't dare throw out there some of the ideas I've been having lately.

I own nothing.
Also, has anyone seen the new MadMax? Is it good? Don't spoil it just tell me if it's worth watching in the theater or if I should just wait to watch it in the internet.
Video-calls and Weekly Challenges Chapter 6
Some time Tuesday afternoon, Tao, Hong Kong
Tao lay on his stomach on top of his bed. The constant sound of beeps from his text message conversation had been a streaming river for close to two hours already. He had a grin on his face as he gathered the courage to ask Kuba Misao on a date.
Liu Tao:
If I said I'm planning a trip to Tokyo in a couple of days, would you come see me?
Kuba Misao:
Unlikely
Liu Tao:
Why? I thought we had a good time at the sleepover.
Don't you want to hang out?
Kuba Misao:
Work, busy
Liu Tao:
What if I said I will have the best chefs in Tokyo make a banquet just for you, will you come then?
Kuba Misao:
Send a copy of the menu and details of the meeting place
Liu Tao:
So you are only coming for the food then. (-_-)
Liu Tao:
Kuba-san?
Liu Tao:
Please tell me I'm wrong.
Liu Tao:
Seriously!
Liu Tao:
I thought you liked me! You said you saw something on my face that you liked.
Liu Tao:
Misao-san, please say something.
Liu Tao:
Got nothing to say? Even for you, this silence is ridiculous.
Kuba Misao:
Work, busy
Liu Tao:
Fine! Go to hell! And you can go find some other fool to make a banquet for you.
You piece of go-se!
Kuba Misao:
I'll take the day off to see you.
Also, don't call me dog crap, it's crass.
Liu Tao:
Un-fucking-believable! Go to hell Kuba-san and don't ever talk to me again.
Kuba Miao:
What did I do?
Liu Tao:
Go fuck yourself.
Kuba Misao:
I don't understand.
Liu Tao:
Of course you don't you robotic, emotionless moron!
Kuba Misao:
Tao-kun, I don't understand what I did wrong.
Liu Tao:
(-_-)
Kuba Misao:
?
Liu Tao:
s(・｀ヘ・;)ゞ
Kuba Misao:
?
Liu Tao:
Unbelievable!
Fine!
It's not what you did; it's what you didn't say!
Kuba Misao:
What didn't I say?
Liu Tao:
Do I have to walk you through this?!
Kuba Misao:
Assume I'm an idiot when it comes to interacting with people and just tell me.
Liu Tao:
You ARE an idiot!
I asked you if you liked me and you said nothing!
Kuba Misao:
When?
Liu Tao:
I was being subtle, I know now subtlety is lost on you.
It was about 11 or 12 texts ago by the way.
Kuba Misao:
Is that what that was?
Liu Tao:
You… are a moron.
Kuba Misao:
How am I supposed to know that's what you meant?
In the future, just say what you mean. I'm not wired for the mental games people like to play with each other when talking. I've never even talked to anyone as much as I've talked to you lately.
Liu Tao:
You do realize texting is not really talking.
That's beside the point; you still haven't answered my question.
Kuba Misao:
What question?
Liu Tao:
Could you be any blinder?! I asked if you like me!
Kuba Misao:
Oh, that? Why did you ask me that? If I didn't like you, I would not have asked you to date me.
Liu Tao:
WHEN THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?!
Kuba Misao:
Yesterday morning. I asked you if you wanted to talk.
Liu Tao:
Again, texting isn't actually talking!
And that in no waythat constitutes to asking someone out!
Kuba Misao:
So you don't want to then?
Liu Tao:
I DIDN'T SAY THAT!
Kuba Misao:
So we are dating then?
Liu Tao:
*sigh*
Kuba Misao:
Is that a yes?
Liu Tao:
You're hopeless.
Kuba Misao:
No, then?
Liu Tao:
Yes, you idiot. We are dating.
Kuba Misao:
About that banquet…
Liu Tao:
Tīn ā! You're ridiculous!
Liu Tao:
Whatever. I'll see you in three days. I've a headache now so I'll send you the info later.
Kuba Misao:
Ok.
Tao wasn't sure what he had just gained was worth the headache pounding in his head, but he was still grinning like an idiot as he rolled to his back on the bed and thought about what he would pack for his secret trip to Japan. Feilong would be pissed but he really wanted to see Kuba.
Still Tuesday: Ewon, Seoul South Korea, 9AM
"Little Fox Jung, you really have some balls asking for such things when you can't even take this level of play." Said Mookyul as he drove himself into the smaller body underneath him.
Ewon was on his knees and in a very uncomfortable position with both his hands tied to the wall lamp above the bed. They had been going at it non-stop since somewhere close to midnight and he was tired to the bone. Even his mind was too sluggish to question how it was that Mookyul could get hard so quickly after coming so many times.
"If you can't take this much then how are you going to be able to please me if I let you be the top?"
Ewon's hoarse voice released a low cry at a particularly hard thrust.
Mookyul sank his teeth on Ewon's shoulder for what must have been the hundredth time that night and bit down on the blemished flesh. He had painted Ewon with an array of bites and sucks all night and made the younger man into a canvass covered with blues, purples and reds from where his teeth had broken skin. The fact that Ewon had wanted to place him in a vulnerable position had unleashed the beast in him and filled him with the need to dominate, Mookyul was sure it was the best sex he had had in months.
"Come on Fox Jung, don't give up now. Don't you want to do me? Tell you what. If you can last two more hours without passing out on me, I'll let you fuck me when you recover. I'm so good to you, my little fox that I'm willing to let you take a breather to collect your energy before you attempt to top me, instead of our previous deal about letting you do it if you're still coherent after I'm done with you. Come on Ewon, two more hours, you can make it, right?"
"Boss, I can't. Please no more."
Mookyul continued to pound mercilessly into Ewon as he made more bite marks on his body. He was hitting that sweet spot with every thrust and Ewon had come so much it was by this point more painful than pleasurable when he reached his orgasm. With a muted cry, the younger man went limp and let darkness take his mind as he passed out while Mookyul came inside him.
Mookyul untied the limp body and took his lover to the bathroom to get him cleaned. He changed the bed sheets to clean ones and laid Ewon on them before getting ointments to aid the healing of the bite and rope marks. He then took a shower and joined his lover in the bed.
It was fun pushing Ewon to the limits but it was also clear the younger man did not have the stamina needed to top him. He'll let Ewon keep thinking he had a chance though, if only to be able to have this kind of sex with his fox again.
Mookyul gathered his lover into his arms and fell asleep with a satisfied smirk on his face.
At the same time, in the Repose Dorm, Tokyo
Mizuki was holding his phone in a death grip as he put the mop away. He was so angry at his inability to approach Kudou about changing the dynamics of their sex life for a night. It was embarrassing to even think of asking such a thing and it made him so mad that it drove him to tears.
He sobbed inside the dorm manager's office as he spoke to Ayase who was also in tears and sobbing uncontrollably.
"We'll never have a chance with this one! There is no way we could have done this and Tao knew it. This is so mean."
"I know, I think so too. How are we supposed to even bring up something like that?! And I don't know about you, but I'm scared out of my mind to even think about saying such a thing to Kanou-san."
"Are you backing out of the challenge?"
"Are you?"
"Yeah. I just can't do it."
"Me too, I can't do it either."
"I want chocolate, and soda, and pocky, chips, and… ice cream."
"Me too."
"We sound like girls in their monthlies."
"Now I feel worse! Why is Tao so mean to us?!"
Tīn ā is in Cantonese pronunciation, Chinese it means tiān ā and English it means oh my god.
I feel so bad for poor Tao being in a 'relationship' with Misao the robot, though I find their conversation highly humorous. In my honest opinion I could see Misao acting that way. He is so detached and emotionless and lacks human interaction skills. Tao on the other hand is so emotional and blows up so quickly, they are truly an unlikely pair but I kinda like it. Tao was so angry and Misao was so calm about the whole thing, this two are going to have a rocky road ahead of them and not only because of the distance issue but because Misao is so clueless about feelings and acting like a human. I found it funny that Tao reverted to his mother longue when angry, that happens to me and I end up swearing at my husband in Spanish.
The fact that Misao would think that asking Tao if he wants to talk (over text message no less) means lets date is also hilarious to me. There was nothing on that statement which would indicate to Tao that they were going to be together. But if you think about it he doesn't talk with anyone other than Homare and would have thought that asking someone to talk was the same as asking them out… maybe? I don't know, he is a hard character because he is so… unhuman? Is that even a word?
Anyways, let me know what you think.
For those following my HP fic, I'm posting the last part and if you are interested in reading it you can only find part 1 on AO3 but both part 1 and 2 are on
I apologize for the ridiculously long AN.
