Well, I'm taking up some of the challenges that were posted over here.
Gave this a shot.

•82. Negi Springfield vs. The World: Negi starts dating Asuna, but soon discovers that in order to do so, he first has to defeat her seven former protectors of Ala Rubra to gain acceptance: Takamichi T. Takahata, Eishun Konoe, Albireo Imma, Gateau Vanderburg('s spirit in a robotic body), Zect Filius, Jack Rakan and finally his own father, Nagi Springfield.
Did a prologue. It seemed to get reasonably good reception at ffnet.

'''Negi Springfield versus the World''', snippet 1. This mostly provides setup for the circumstances of the fic, as well as explaining why Negi can potentially lose against most of Ala Rubra.

Negi was quite relieved that after the Mundis Magicus debacle five years ago, his life had been nice and quiet. Or at least, as nice and quiet as Class 3-A would permit, at any rate.
Negi recalled the fierce and violent battle, during which he and the rest of 3-A had managed to overcome the God of Magic. However, even depowered thanks to Asuna's Magic Cancel, the Lifemaker had still been wielding Nagi's body, and was therefore a skilled and mighty brawler.
Negi had been able to subdue the Lifemaker and restore control to Nagi, but in doing so had nearly burned out his Magia Erebea, weakenign it. As a result, it couldn't absorb nearly as much as before the battle, and rather than the nigh-invincible powerup it had once been, his black magic was now more of a mere "super mode".
After the battle, the massive magicks within the Lifemaker's soul had rejuvenated Mundus Magicus, stabilizing it for the next several thousand years.
Going through puberty had been complete and utter ''hell'', he recalled. Misa and Haruna had been the worst of it. Thankfully, interest from the majority of his students had gradually waned over the years, and despite letting most of them down softly, he'd managed to maintain a solid friendship with them all.
Takamichi passed him a glass of lemonade across the table at Chao Bao Zi.
"You've had that far-off look for quite some time now. Reminiscing again, Negi?"
Slightly chagrined, Negi accepted the glass and took a sip. "Yeah. Sorry about that."
"It's not a problem at all. So, what did you want to talk about?"
Negi pasued for a moment, pondering how he should put it. "I've been thinking, Takamichi. I think I'm starting to fall for one of my former students, and I wanted your advice about the possibility of pursuing a relationship with her now that she's graduated."
Takamichi lit up a cigarette and let out a puff of smoke. "I see. Who's the lucky lady, then? I seem to recall you putting most of your students in the friend zone."
Negi hesitated for a second, clearly anxious. "It's Asuna. I want to ask her out tomorrow. Do you think I should?"
Takamichi coolly regarded Negi through his specs for a moment. "Are you sure, Negi? It's going to be one difficult battle after another, and it's a fair bit you won't win. If you've got the determination to try and pursue her anyway, then I suppose I shouldn't try to discourage you further."
Negi smiled. "Thanks. I appreciate that."
Paying for his unfinished drink, the boy professor ran on out, intending to get some rest and to hope for a good day on the morrow.
Exhaling a small cloud of smoke, Takamichi muttered, "Best of luck, Negi. You're going to need it."
____________
Three years before, once it had become apparent that Negi was starting to get.... ''interested'' in ladies..... Negi had moved out of Asuna and Konoka's room, and into his own on the other side of campus.
The resulting end of the constant close-quarters contact with Asuna had led to a small amount of distance between them over the next couple of years, which in turn led to Negi seeing her as less of an older sister figure and as more of a potential love interest.

Oh, hey, remembered that I actually have this thing.
Negi/Tsukuyomi. Theme is "Disappointment".
- Quote:
-
As the regional law enforcement carted the brigands off to their fate, Negi said, "I'm a little surprised you let them live."
Tsukuyomi cheerfully turned to face her boyfriend of five years. "Really? It's not like the first time."
She then attempted to make her face show something like concern, but couldn't quite stop the delight from coming out in her voice as she asked, "Does that bother you or something?"
Negi's smile was genuine. "Not at all, I was just wondering if perhaps I was rubbing off on you a bit. Wondering ... if you were beginning to lose your enjoyment in killing for its own sake."
The blonde assassin's entire body slouched. She didn't even bother trying to mask what she was feeling this time.
From her pout, to her posture, to that look in her eyes, everything about the woman said, 'I'm disappointed in you.'
And while Negi still wasn't usually adept at reading women, he understood this message clearly.
"No, Negi, I just..." she seems irritated, as if trying to find the right words to say what she wants. Negi grows all the more worried, since she normally just says whatever's on her mind.
"I know that you don't really get buzzed off of people's blood, so I don't mind doing things your way every now and then."
With that, she turned to leave. Negi reached out his hand to stop her, but was too late. "I'm... sorry, Tsukuyomi."
The Shinmei swordswoman turned back to him, and cheerfully replied, "Yeah, I know."
Then, with her usual unsettling smile, she continued, "And you're a smart guy, so I know you'll figure it out sooner or later."
With this, she left.
Negi let her go, and wondered. He was sure that he'd wronged her in some way, but...
Then he thought back to what she'd said.
I know that you don't really get buzzed off of people's blood, so I don't mind doing things your way every now and then.
She still got off on killing people for any reason under the sun, and even no reason at all. But despite this, there were occasions where she'd spare life, out of consideration for him.
And yet... Negi had taken that for granted. More to the point, even though Tsukuyomi attempted to act according to his way of doing things from time to time, Negi had never once done the same for her.
In this way, Negi realized that their relationship had been one-sided - he had only taken, and had given nothing back. As a gentleman, this shamed him to no end.
But. If Tsukuyomi conceded to his compassion by sparing life every now and then, the expectation of him would be...?
