9S & 2B dating a human

pairing: 9S x gn!reader x 9S

tags: poly relationship, light angst, mostly fluff, canon divergent

2B and 9S are deadly protective of you! 

not only are you the last human known to exist, but you're also their beloved partner and so much weaker than any android and machine out there

the three of you are always together, because both of your android partners want to make sure you are safe

they trust each other to keep you safe, yet they still can't help but worry that something might go terribly wrong when they aren't there to protect you

9S and 2B are also dating each other, yet still get a bit jealous of each other when it comes to you

after all, 2B knows that there are things in a relationship that only 9S can offer you, like cheering you up with his energetic personality whenever you're sad

meanwhile 9S knows that he can't do everything that 2B can do, like protect you in battle and he worries that he's lacking too much for him to be your favorite

but you don't have any favorites between the two of them! 

you love both of your partners and they both offer things the other one doesn't have, which is why they work so well together! 

9S loves to hear you talk about humanity and how things used to be before the war, though often asking more about small things he doesn't understand

there was one time you came across an abandoned playground and you had to explain what a swing was to 9S, who couldn't understand how humans used something this inefficient, that only moved in such a limited space

9S loves to learn everything about humanity though and he tends to drown you in questions, until 2B steps in and tells him to slow down with all of the questions

2B is the more serious one out of the two and while you tend to have more fun with 9S, you can relax more with 2B and have meaningful conversations with her

2B often comforts you whenever you miss humanity and lends you a shoulder to cry on if you need to

9S on the other hand attempts to distract you as a way of cheering you up, by bringing you small gifts that might help lift your mood

but only 2B has enough courage out of the two of them to ask you uncomfortable questions about humanity and your past

for example, if you'd return to your normal life if you were given the chance and if you'd leave them behind…

though no matter how often that question comes up, your answer is always the same; you wouldn't leave those two for anything in the world!

“The black box...it's ready.”

How did things come to this? 2B looked up at her silver-haired companion, whose artificial face was already littered with crude nicks and slight smears of black oil. The air was damp, carrying with it the smell of the sea that surrounded them.

And it wasn't the only thing that surrounded them. On all sides, great mechanical beasts stood. Rusty, giant, sentient oil rigs. Goliaths They had been sent to track down one. They had been confronted by four. Three now remained, steadily walking closer, shifting slowly through the grey waves below in order to reach them and growling as they did so.

This is it. She took a breath. There was no other way out of this besides doing what 9S had just suggested. If they detonated their black boxes then the Goliaths would get caught up in the blast, and they would be destroyed too. Technically...their mission would be a success.

However... However, it was unlikely that they themselves would survive. Impossible actually. They would be at the heart of it when it happened. If the blast had enough of a radius to annihilate the massive robots around them, then it would completely obliterate that which was right next to it. And that would be...the two of them.

Death was an interesting concept to consider. For androids it was different of course. Not only did they lack the same emotions and considerations that humans had, but they also had a back up. Literally. Their memories, their bodies, all of it could be restored if necessary, provided it had been prepared in advance. Which it had been.

If they 'died' here, they'd just come back again up at The Bunker. Really, it was nothing. But still...

Grunting, and letting out a strained cough which he stealthily covered with one slightly shaking, black gloved hand, 9S held his box up with the other. “...Right.” 2B brought forth her own.

“Requesting...destruction of enemy hostiles via black-box-” 9S stopped. He didn't finish his sentence. Something made him stop. Something made him choke. “9S?” 2B questioned, a little 'panic' rising in her throat. Looking around quickly she could see that those malevolent robots were only drawing closer and closer. “-We don't have much time.” she stressed, though kept her voice level. Shouting, worrying...it would be wasted effort in a scenario like this.

“I...I know.” 9S tried to speak again, but he was unable. “Initiate...re...”

“9S...”

Why am I hesitating? I should have been prepared for this. The male android gripped the slightly textured cube even tighter in his hand. He'd taken the necessary precautions. What was most important was that 2B's own memories were backed up. Sure, she'd be wiped out down here, but up there she'd come back and it would practically be like nothing happened. She'd miss a few minutes at worst. However, in his case it wasn't quite the same.

Sure. YoRHa had his model on hand. Yes...he'd come back. And yes, memories would be there too.

But he wouldn't be the same.

This was so silly. It was just a simple, singular memory. In the long run it would do little to benefit him. It certainly wouldn't help him become a more capable unit. Yet why did he feel so protective of it?

That little moment they'd had...together...

…

“Look at this place, 9S.” “...Wow...it's...breathtaking...”

Melancholy. If any word could sum up the sight before them succinctly, it would be 'melancholy'. The Earth...abandoned, broken, overgrown. Yet strangely beautiful in its own damaged way. Once grand skyscrapers now lay toppled like grey mottled dominoes, their windows spilling with lush green vines that grew and trailed down to the moss ridden ground. The sky above was a sad sort of blue, slightly clouded. The air was warm yet the city felt so empty...

Just the two of them, standing there atop one of the many abandoned buildings, taking in the grand sight before themselves. 9S didn't feel so lonely with 2B standing there next to him. He ought to never feel lonely at all given what he was, but the feeling still came and went.

Colorless eyes scanning the scenery behind a shadow, they settled upon something that most would consider rather small and insignificant, but to him stood out. Perhaps it was because it had such vibrant color. The flower's petals were a bright shade of magenta, which contrasted starkly with the cracked gray ground it was growing from. Curiously, 9S approached, crouching down and examining the plant.

He pulled it free from the soil and held it between his fingers, staring at it for a moment. Those same seemingly cold eyes then drifted over to the girl who stood at the opposite end of the rooftop, no doubt already making plans in her head for how to scout this area. 2B almost looked picturesque in her own way, her slender, stern figure standing there against a canvas of greys and blues.

With resolve on the mind, 9S straightened up again and walked over to the girl, taking her hand and giving her the flower without any alert. 2B didn't jolt, but she did look at him through her combat visor, and noted the little gift he had given her. Though she didn't assume it was a gift at first, when she raised it to her eyeline and gave it a good examination. Glancing at him again, 2B questioned:

“Do you want this to be submitted for analysis?” “No it's...” 9S trailed off. If that were the case then he'd have looked into it himself.

“-It's a present.” “A present?”

2B spoke the word as if it were foreign to her, even though she of course knew what it meant. She was an android, not an alien. However, androids had little use for 'presents', certainly when they were programmed to do missions and little else. Though 2B didn't reject it. Instead, she drew the little offering to her chest and held it there for a while, raising her head again and looking out over the city once more.

It was a simple gesture. 2B chose to keep it, but perhaps she had only done so out of politeness. Still. It meant something to him.

…

The last time I backed up my memories...was before that happened. There's no time now...

“9S-” “I'm fine.”

He tilted his own box towards hers, shifting a little closer to his fellow android. “Requesting destruction of enemy hostiles...via black-box reaction.”

“...Request accepted.”

love triangle with 2B & 9S

pairing: 2B x gn!reader x 9S

tags: wholesome fluff, protective!9S & 2B, jealous!2B (2B wants a cute petname), injured!2B & 9S (+reader taking care of them)

9S is very open about his feelings for you, while 2B is reluctant to show how much she cares for you

after all, 2B knows that androids are prohibited from showing emotions, which is why she's so hesitant to get closer to you

9S doesn't seem to have a problem with that though, which often gets him a scolding from 2B

however, the times 2B does show her emotions towards you always feel very special, knowing that she expresses them so rarely

even slight affection from 2B, Iike her placing her hand on your shoulder or carrying you off if you're even slightly hurt in battle feel so intimate

both 2B and 9S make an effort to protect you in battle, which starts with 2B usually making you stick around her during missions, so she can keep an eye on you

though the bonus of being close to you is always nice to have…

9S and 2B tend to get pretty reckless when it comes to protecting you, often getting injured in your place

though it's not so bad, since they know you'll patch them up afterwards, which means they'll get to be close to you and enjoy your company

9S tries to take you on a ton of dates, which he tends to disguise as missions, only for 2B to often ruin his plans and remind him of the actual mission they have

though it's also an excuse for her to keep you away from 9S

2B is the more jealous one out of the two, always feelings this aching feeling in her chest when she sees you with 9S, even if it shouldn't be possible for her to feel this way

the worst is when you call him Nines, since 2B wants nothing more than to get a cute nickname from you as well, yet would never dare to bring that up

but the worst things about this love triangle is how deeply 9S and 2B care about each other and are aware of the others feelings for you

the two of them don't want to hurt each other when spending time with you, yet they aren't the type to just give up on you either

but no matter which one of them you end up choosing, the other might be hurt at first, but they'll always be supportive of the relationship!
