((Felt bored, so here’s some indulgent fluffy Lance fanfic that I crafted in a spur of the moment. Sorry for any grammar or misspellings; completely wrote this on spot))

Tender Care (Lance x Reader)

Dragonite stood at your doorstep again, performing another attempt at Baby Doll eyes, whilst holding his Trainer in his arms. Lance looked unbothered by this, his injuries not the least bit life threatening, yet, to his Dragonite, meant life or death. The poor dragon had no option but to fly over towards your humble abode, where your skills as a “healer” proved to be valuable at this pleading orange doofus’s hour.

It’s always a routine with you and Lance. He goes off training or stopping some villain out to do harm, ending him with a cut or two. Of course, he tries to come prepared, though it always bothered you that he never knew when to back out or at least rethink his approach. Still, you couldn’t deny it. Part of you feels glad that he’s somewhat okay. Lance might feel like he’s imposing, but it didn’t really matter. You were happy to help.

With a tired smile, you stepped aside to let Dragonite through, his pleading gaze brightened at your gesture.

That silly dragon you smiled, closing the door gently. Always fussing over something

Entering your living room, Dragonite placed Lance onto your couch before sprawling himself down on the carpeted floor like an elongated Furret, his body coiled and his wings casted in a relaxed droop. Lance watches Dragonite with a mixture of amusement and annoyance. The training hadn’t gotten that out of hand and maybe Lance did push himself a bit too much. However, as stubborn as it may be, Lance couldn’t wrap his head on why an emergency pit stop to your home became mandatory. He didn’t think that his injuries appeared as severe; probably a nick or two on his cheeks and arms, but his Dragonite (the one out of his three) has always been a sensitive soul.

Regardless, Lance nestled himself deeper into the couch cushions and listened as he heard you collecting first aid. Aside from your noise, the house itself remained peaceful. Nothing hectic, nothing troublesome. The springtime breeze filtered in through the cracked windows, filling the space with a sweet aroma of wildflowers and crisp gusts that whistled through the tree branches with a soothing flute tone. From all the intense action and chaotic activity that consumes Lance’s life, he finds himself envying your world.

Your peaceful domain untouched by disruption. How quiet your home can be yet not be lonesome thanks to nearby Pidgey and Sentrets that pay you a visit. Lance may be convinced that he might be hallucinating, but he’s thankful that it’s a reality. He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes.

As you finally gathered your first aid, you walked into your living room to discover Lance and Dragonite in a blissful rest. The sight makes you smile. Quietly tiptoeing towards Lance, you can notice his relaxed expression and how his cape blankets him lazily as his chest goes up and down rhythmically. You set your first aid down on the coffee table as you knelt down beside Lance, meeting at his eye level. You didn’t want to disturb the Champ. He wasn’t in pain, but exhaustion was abundantly evident. The dark circles underneath his eyes can be noted. Sleep has been difficult these days for him. Your heart ached, knowing that the past few months have been incredibly stressful. It wasn’t just training hard, but also taking care of events concerning Team Rocket activity and maintaining public image. You couldn’t imagine being in Lance’s shoes, let alone putting yourself in harm’s way to protect a whole region.

Admirable, yes, but the worry you have for Lance never escaped your mind. Your eyes wandered downward at his attire. That goofy, yet oddly charming medieval look disheveled by whatever happened. It didn’t look torn, but the noticeable scuffs and tears at the sleeves told a story of preventable accidents and overdoing it way too much. You leaned over and gently unclasp Lance’s cape, being careful to not stir his sleep. As you do so, you heard Lance take a deep breath before slowly opening his eyes, his golden irises catching you in the act. You felt your face flush with heat before you backed down, mumbling an apology.

As you turned away to grab something from your first aid kit, you heard a grunt and turned your head to see Lance sitting up. He grimaced a bit, a shot of pain jolting through his body as bruises settle in. Despite this, Lance tries to maintain composure as he leans forward to pull you closer to him. You were surprised by this as you clutched the gauze in your hands. Unsure of what to do or say, you allowed yourself to surrender to the Dragon Master’s embrace, ensnaring you in a loose albeit warm hug that felt tender and soft.

“I’m okay. I’m okay,” Lance muttered slowly, his voice low and sleepy.

You didn’t say anything as you heard Lance fall back asleep. His heartbeat slowed to a comfortable pace and his hands gently pressed you down onto his chest like he’s snuggling a Teddiursa. The tenderness of his love made you want to cry yet you felt lulled in by his sleepiness instead.

In the golden afternoon, as the Pidgey sang their birdsong and as the wind caressed the flowers, their swath of sweet floral scent gliding all over, you closed your eyes and fall into a blissful sleep.

Totally forgot that I dedicated two sketchbook pages full of Lance drawings back in August when I got hit with Covid and didn’t know what to do with my time.

Simp-uary Day 31: Zoro

He's such a cool dude; nothing else to it.

This wraps up my January art challenge. It was a lot of fun sketching out characters that I am a hopeless simp for, as well as trying my style out on characters that I have never or rarely drawn before, so it was really interesting :) I try to aim for doing an art challenge every January as a warm up for the coming year, so I am happy to say that this is the first challenge that I have completed for myself. Can't wait for next January!
