Sleep-Deprived

Pairings -> Ratchet x Reader

Warnings -> None

Note -> This is a story that I did on Archive of our own (Ao3) but I am going to change it up a bit. Also this is going to be a human version of Ratchet because I want to

Summary -> You couldn’t sleep at all because of one nightmare that haunted you for a while now, seeming that ratchet was still awake he helped you go back to sleep

Genre -> fluff and a little bit of Angst

Alright, let's be straightforward. You would have trouble falling asleep due to nightmares, tonight was the same as every other night it was because of a terrible nightmare that kept haunting you and making it impossible for you to fall back asleep.

You hated it so much.

You left your room and made the decision to take a short walk through the base's main area in an attempt to get your mind clear of the nightmare that had been bothering you ever since you woke up.

You chose to stay up the night at the base with the others for a special movie night.

Everyone was there except Optimus and Ratchet and you kind of dipped early during the film. You were also at the base because you lived with the others since you had nowhere else to go. 

As you were walking past the base's main room, you heard someone groaning, which you knew was definitely Ratchet. You approached him and depending on how unexpectedly you appeared behind him, you may or may not have scared him.

“Primus Y/N. Don’t approach me without a warning.” Ratchet then turned to face you fully and realized it was late at night, possibly around two in the morning.

“What are you doing up so late?” Ratchet asked as he seemed to wonder. “I can say the same thing about you, Ratch. I just wanted to keep my mind off something..” You quietly replied as you weren't pretending to not be tired since you didn’t want to go back to sleep alone.

Ratchet suspiciously side eyed you as he turned back around and sat down on his chair.

“So, what are you doing up so late?” You were now the one to ask. “I’m doing something important” He said as he sighed, you were hesitant to ask but you did anyway.

“Can I.. Can I stay with you for a little bit? Until I feel tired again?” You asked, you wanted company but you had a hard way of saying it, especially to Ratchet.

“Sure, go ahead” He said as he went back to doing his ‘important’ things while waving his hand. You found a spinny chair near you as you pulled it close to Ratchet as you sat next to him, laying your head under your arms that were crossed on the desk in front of you.

You continued to look at Ratchet’s actions which he seemed to notice but didn’t say anything. You then placed your face down as you deeply sighed.

You spent a few minutes by Ratchet's side, and during that time, you noticed that he appeared completely refreshed, which alarmed you because, from the way you were staring at him, you could tell that he was suffering from insomnia.

Perhaps you did too, but it didn't seem true because occasionally your eyes would open and close. You were terrified that nightmare would come again, so you were making a lot of effort to stay awake.

"You know, you can just go back to bed if you're really tired." You shook your head and told him you weren't tired and that you wanted to stay, but Ratchet didn't accept the lie and rolled his eyes.

"What's keeping you awake, then?" He asked which of you said "nightmare" in response.

The word "nightmare" seemed to soften Ratchet's expression. "Want to talk about it?" You shook your head again when he asked, not wanting to discuss it in case it crossed your mind, which is what you didn't want.

Ratchet didn't seem to say anything after that, he sighed as he continued to let you stay beside him a bit longer.

You were too exhausted to fight the tiredness, so you kept closing and opening your eyes. Ratchet extended his hand and began to play or scratch your hair and scalp.

You opened your eyes when you felt his warm hand, but before you could turn to face him, he put your head back down. “Sleep” Ratchet ordered, You thanked him quietly and smiled as he continued running his hand through your hair. 

You were now asleep,Ratchet got up from his seat to you. He could clearly tell the eyebags under your eyes as well as the dry tear stains that he couldn’t see early

He felt bad.

He pulled you back on the back of the seat to not make you fall, he then hooked his arms under your legs and on your back as he took you back to his room.

Placing you down on his bed, he got in you. He looked down at you as he wiped the dry tears on your cheeks. “Try to sleep well Love” Ratchet looked at you and gently smiled

“Goodnight” As he kissed your forehead and went to sleep.

Keeping you company in his warm embrace.

What’s sleeping with the Touchstarved LIs like? Nothing sexual. Just. Sleeping lol eepy pals

I like imagining Ais moving in his sleep BUT you only get to notice that once you wake up lol (he’s curled up in the corner of your bed fast asleep with the blanket at his feet) ALSO BIG BUT!!!!! That’s only if he’s not cuddling you to sleep (smth he does often). Only then will he sleep sound and motionless. He doesn’t give a shit if his arm falls asleep. GIVE HIM CUDDLES.

Sleeping with Leander is just with him standing in the corner of the room. Unblinking. Covered in the shadows. He Does Not Sleep. He’s normal though, I swear :-) :-) jk I love to have this man.

HELLO ANON

Hope you’re good! I love this request… I don’t know if Ais sleeps actually… But if he does I’m sure he’s a light sleeper. For Leander that guy might as well be dying from lack of sleep LMAO

For the other LIs… Kuras definitely doesn’t sleep, I think Mhin is pretty paranoid so I’m imagining they have a lot of nightmares, or insomnia… For Vere, idk why but he gives off the vibe of the heavy sleeper: he’s 100% taking all the place in the bed and is impossible to wake up against his will… Well, basically a cat.

BUT I did write a little something about Ais (and a small part about Leander) because your ideas were funny to write, I had to…

After blood, sweat and tears it's finally here... And I can't not thank @aiscapades for helping me edit the text (most of the prettiest sentences are their...) if you ever write something I'll definitely devour it because you sublimed this headcanon...

Enjoy!! 🫶

TOUCHSTARVED HEADCANON🍒

Ais and Leander centered

⭐

The ambiance at the Wet Wick that night was quite festive, as it almost always was, but it was particularly noisy this time. The barman didn’t have a second to rest; every minute, someone went to the bar to order another drink. You were seated with Leander and Ais in a corner of the tavern, the three of you sharing a drink or several... The mood between you was light. Leander and Ais were lightheartedly sharing some death threats as usual, while you were listening to them, a grin on your face. You were pretty wasted because of all the drinks Leander suggested you try, while Ais was giving you a disapproving glance.  It felt kind of awkward to be the only drunk one around the table you thought while partially listening to whatever they were saying. You didn’t like being treated like an idiot, so you stopped the boys in one of their quarrels by slamming your hand in the center of the table. “Why am I the only one who can’t hold my drink here? I find it pretty unfair. Why did you make me drink so much?” Ais raised an eyebrow. “I don’t think it’s about how badly you hold your drink, but much more because of how many of those weird drinks you got from Leander.” That remark made you pretty upset, and Leander’s laughter turned your cheeks more red than they already were. “I can’t refuse a challenge!” “Yeah, that’s the problem,” Ais added. Leander leaned over the table to get his face closer to yours. “You know, I’m pretty impressed you’re still alive with all that you drank.” You didn’t know if he was serious or not. The smile on his face could be a hint of sarcasm or genuine amazement… You were too drunk to guess which one it was anyway, so you started joking. “Oh babe… You know it’s hard to get rid of me.” “Really…?” Leander answered with a smirk on his face. The tension between the two of you started getting heavier… Did he want to make out with you or kill you? You had no idea, and you would never be able to know as Ais pulled Leander back on his chair by the collar of his jacket. “If you want to mate so badly, the room’s upstairs.” “We’re not animals,” you simply said. “Are you, Sparrow?” He grinned widely, proud of his teasing. “Har har. Very funny. I already told you to stop calling me that!” “Make me.” His lips were pulled back in a wide grin, his amusement giving a clear view of his fangs.

A sudden thought that you couldn’t restrain, popped in your head. Your alcoholised mind was making it hard for you to process any coherent thought, so you simply stood up and looked straight in Ais’ eyes. “Come.” You turned your head toward Leander, and stared at him in a weird way for a few seconds as if you wanted to tell him something by telepathy. But you didn't add any further clarification. Instead, you stood up from the table and made your way up the tavern stairs. “What the fuck…" Ais breathed, dumbfounded.  The two boys sat in silence for a while, gazes locked across the table, before Ais got up and joined you upstairs. The place was barely lit by a single candle in the corner of the room. Ais closed the door behind him before asking: “What’s wrong with you?” You took him by the shoulders to make him sit on your bed… But as strong as he was, there wasn't much you could do to actually make him do that. “Please, sit.” He raised an eyebrow. “I don’t receive orders.” Though, when you tried to push him on your bed once again, he did sit. You were now face to face. His towering height usually made it hard for you to make eye contact, but you could do it effortlessly now. You climbed on the bed yourself, placing your knees at both extremities of his body, now placing yourself over him. You took his face between your hands and looked at it in detail from beneath you. He had a captivating red gaze, surrounded by pretty, long eyelashes. Long, dark strands of hair cut across his face, bisecting it just along his nose, but you still knew the angles of his features well. From the scar on his left eyebrow to his defined jawline, you looked at everything there was to see on his face. “Getting an eyeful, Sparrow?” You reddened. Sitting here next to him, you only now realized just how heavy your body felt from all those drinks. You swayed forward some, accidentally nudging Ais, which just sent him further down to the bed. Your face found a spot against his neck, and you inhaled a breath. He smelled good: his scent was a mix of cigarette, what seems to be some cologne and a bit of all the alcohol he drank earlier. Your heart started beating faster and you prayed for him not to notice. He couldn’t know you had feelings for him. It’s at this moment that his hands tensed on your shoulders, in an attempt to pull you back.

“Hey, get off. You’re clearly drunk.” But you didn't answer, nor did you move. He held firm, raising his voice a bit as he said once more, "Sparrow." What should've been an inquisitive prompt was instead flattened into a curt demand for a response.  He started to maneuver you onto your back, intending to just let you fall gently into the mattress, but he froze mid-action.  "You can't be serious..." he muttered, eyes wide.  You were sound asleep, still clinging to his arm. Ais sighed out of frustration one more time, asking himself what to do. But he didn’t think about it much longer. “Well… Let’s just stay here for tonight.” He put himself under the sheets, covering you with them at the same time.

⭐

You were cold. Goosebumps lined the flesh of your body. You slowly woke up, searching for your blanket. When you finally felt its fabric under your fingers, you grabbed it to cover yourself, but a stronger pull on the other edge of it almost tore your arm apart (once again…). You sat up on your bed with a start and gasped when you saw who was at the other edge. “What the… Ais?” What was he doing in your bed? Your first move was to look at how you were dressed, and when you noticed that you still had on the clothes you wore yesterday, you let out a relieved sigh. Ais got immediately woken up when you spoke and looked at you with annoyance. “Keep it down, would you?” “Hey! You’re the one in my room, stealing my blanket. What are you doing here?” But instead of answering, his head snapped toward something in the middle of the room. It was still dark outside, so it was hard for you to see what got his attention. “What is it?!” you asked, panicked. When your eyes finally adapted to the bit of light the moon was offering, a scream escaped from your mouth. “What the fuck?!” Leander was there, sat on a chair, feet laid on the low table of your bedroom. His arms were crossed and he was simply looking at the two of you from where he was, unblinking. “Is he… sleeping with his eyes open?” you asked Ais. But he didn’t answer. Leander did. “No, I’m awake.” He surprised you once more, and you let out another brief, startled scream. “Since when are you here?!” “Oh. Four hours maybe?” Your jaw dropped. How could he answer that with such casualness? “What… When do you sleep?” Leander got up from his chair and opened the door with a smile. “I don’t.” He left you completely agape. It wasn’t the first time Leander was giving off such strange vibes, but the more you got to know him, the weirder he was to you. When you turned toward Ais to ask him if what happened was a normal thing from Leander, you noticed he disappeared too. “Well…” You couldn’t find it in you to get back to sleep after what happened, and you stayed awake until you could see the sun rise. You told yourself that maybe you should talk to Kuras about what just happened; he was the most ‘normal’ one of this weird group, and you were going to need something for your hangover anyway… You’ll remember to lock your door next time.

Obanai had a maddening habit of waking up at 2 a.m. every night. There seemed no explanation for this—not even insomnia, given that he could sleep fine… until 2 a.m. Though Obanai appeared to be getting enough sleep every day anyway, it was still a cause of annoyance on Giyuu’s side. Mostly because he was a light sleeper and almost always awoke when Obanai made his nightly departure of the bed and tiptoed out the room. Typically, Giyuu managed to fall back asleep sometime later. But tonight was different. Tonight, he got up, too.

Obanai had left a couple minutes ago and Giyuu searched blindly around for him. He found him in the kitchen a moment later, and waited a beat. Obanai hadn’t realized he was awake, simply watching the microwave as it warmed up a mug with who knows what inside. Instead of trying to scare him, Giyuu padded inside without trying to be quiet. Once he noticed him, Obanai stood up (he’d been leaning against the counter) and looked at him curiously.

“Giyuu…? Did I wake you?” he asked. He moved to stand in front of him, gazing up.

Giyuu shrugged, brushing away the question in favor of patting Obanai’s hair down. “Can’t sleep again?”

“Oh.” Obanai seemed mildly embarrassed. “You’ve noticed?”

“It’s not that hard to tell. You’re usually right up against me when we sleep, so when you leave the absence is noticeable,” Giyuu explained. He planted a reassuring kiss to Obanai’s forehead as the microwave beeped. “What’s that?”

“Nothing. Hot chocolate,” Obanai hummed, retrieving the quite hot cup of chocolate milk, and holding it with both hands. He took a tentative sip, and then another when it was deemed at an alright temperature. “Want some?”

Giyuu shook his head. “It’ll keep me awake.”

“It doesn’t have caffeine, Giyuu.”

“Still.”

Obanai huffed but continued drinking it. “Your loss.”

Not really caring for it, Giyuu just watched him. They stood in silence for a long moment, words not needed just yet. It was dark, given the hour, and Giyuu was tired. He yawned once—and then again—rubbing his eyes.

“How are you not tired?” he asked, peering suspiciously at Obanai. “Are you sure that’s not caffeinated?”

“I’m sure,” Obanai insisted. “If you’re tired, go back to bed.”

“I wanna stay with you.”

But even Giyuu’s wish to remain with Obanai wasn’t enough for his fatigue, and after several attempts to stay upright, he admitted, grudgingly, that he should go to bed. He stayed one more minute, clinging to Obanai’s side and resting his chin on his head until Obanai insisted he went to sleep.

He trudged to the bedroom, sinking into the mattress. His body was quick to melt, his eyes drooping closed. He had barely any time to process anything before he promptly fell asleep.

The bed was mildly cold after both their absences, but, somewhere in Giyuu’s dreamland, he registered a sudden warmth.

Obanai crawled into the bed, slipping into Giyuu’s arms which closed instinctively around him, holding him. He struggled to bring the blankets up, bundling them up under the warmth. Giyuu seemed to relax further into the bed at that, and Obanai gazed at him with a smile playing on his lips. He should stop getting up at night if Giyuu was gonna start following him.

Gently, trying not to create too much disturbance, Obanai’s arms snaked around Giyuu’s torso. He buried himself into the embrace, deliberately steadying his breathing and closing his eyes.

“Goodnight, Giyuu,” he murmured, allowing the light pulls of sleep to tug him under.

Can you please do a Saint seiya hypnos x insomniac reader like the reader can't sleep no matter how hard they try they can't sleep, so hypos cuddles with the reader to help them sleep

Alright, I did the Lost Canvas Hypnos because that man is FINE! I will say, that Hypnos and Thanatos look way better in Lost Canvas than they do in the Classic version. But anyway, Here is your request and I am so sorry it came out so late! Its a little short but I hope you still like it!

Staring at the ceiling became a daily routine for you. You lay in bed, at 2:30 in the morning, and you couldn’t fall asleep. You haven't been able to sleep since you first laid your head down on the pillow that night. Groaning, you sat up and rubbed your eyes. You yawned, knowing you were tired, but your body and brain would not allow it. Standing from the bed, you shuffle into the living room to see your boyfriend, Hypnos, sitting on the couch, book in hand, and a mug of coffee on the table in front of him. 

Turning the page, he looked up and noticed you standing there. He marked his spot and closed his book before standing up from the couch and making his way over to you. He gently cupped your face in his hands and leaned down, pressing a gentle kiss to your lips before pulling away and looking directly into your eyes. “Why are you still awake my love? Don’t you have class tomorrow?” He asked. You wanted to cry. You really did. You hated that you couldn’t sleep and you knew that you had classes tomorrow. Tears filled your eyes and you were immediately pulled into Hypnos’s chest. His arms wrapped around you in a comforting but gentle way. 

“What’s wrong?” He whispered, petting your hair as you sobbed into his chest. When you had calmed down, you lifted your head and looked up at him. “My stupid insomnia is acting up and I can’t sleep. I haven’t been able to sleep for the past three days and it's starting to catch up to me.” You said, watching your boyfriend's eyebrows furrow before his face dropped to a pout. “How about I come and lay with you in bed? Cuddle you til you are asleep. Will that help?” He asked, watching and gauging your reaction. You look at your boyfriend with wide eyes before a smile appears on your face. 

“You mean it?”

“Of course I mean it. Now, let's go get comfortable on the bed and get you the sleep you need.”

After getting comfortable, you curled into his chest and closed your eyes. Your body starting to melt into sleep. Hypnos lay on his side, his arms wrapped tightly around you, he pressed a kiss to your forehead before pulling you closer to him. He kept his eyes on you throughout the night, closing his eyes when he needed to, but wanting to make sure you got the most sleep you could. Watching how you instantly fall asleep pressed close to him, he made it his goal to make sure he is around when you want to take a nap, or at night when you need to sleep. He will be your pillow if that's what it takes to get you the full amount of sleep.

Sleeping Habits

Genre: fluff, established relationship, domestic, idol chan

Word Count: 1.8k

Warning: anxiety/insomnia topic, light suggestive lines

Summary: Two 20 something year olds that can fall in love, but can’t fall asleep

A/N: Happy 5-STAR Comeback Day! It’s my first official comeback and I’m celebrating by streaming while finishing this short one-shot that I’ve been putting off since April. I didn’t proof read this at all, please let me know about any errors. Anyways… I’m back on my self indulgence, bc the world inside my head is better than my real world anyways, might as well make it a good one. Fun fact (that only I care about, but I like to over share): My bias for Chan started as soon as I read that he was born 1 year minus a day apart from me. Enough about my delusions, this is also my first time writing about SKZ so here goes nothing.

You arrive home exhausted after a 12 hour shift at the hospital you work at, tossing your heels at the entrance of the cozy apartment you share with Chan. 

“Honey, I’m home.” You say with a singing tone making your way to leave your belongings on the living room sofa so you don’t forget them the next morning. Checking the kitchen to put away some washed plates and glasses. 

“Hey, baby. Did you have a good day?” You hear him shuffling around before you see him, wearing his usual black shirt, black basketball shorts and socks. He kisses the crown of your head, engulfing you into a back hug, hands gripping your hips. Quickly turning you around giving you a sweet gentle kiss before you can even open your mouth to say a word. 

“Tiring but good, a lot of patients showed great progress today and that keeps me going. How about you, did you finish the track you were working on before I left?” You bend your arms to rub his back until your fingers squeeze his shoulders to release the tension moving along to the nape of his neck. 

After almost a year of living together you’re used to his habit of waking up, saying good morning with his groggy voice, sealing his greeting with a kiss and heading straight to the studio. Because he can’t do anything else before revising the work he did the night before listening with a fresh mind to get his genius creativity flowing. You do your morning routine and put down the breakfast beside his work desk, worried that he’ll forget to eat for a while if he’s consumed by the music. Sometimes he’s so excited about a song that he rambles trying to explain all the details of the arrangement, accidentally making you sprint to leave for work to avoid being late. Everyday you’re tempted to stay for a little bit longer just to appreciate his sparkling eyes talking about his new endeavors. 

“I did! I’ll share it with the kids tomorrow to get their feedback.” The kids aren’t really kids… well kinda. Since your relationship with Chan started they have teased him that if they could kick him out of they group they would just to have you as their leader. Specially Seungmin claiming that Chan is getting too old, even though you are closer in age to your boyfriend than him. But you wouldn’t dare to try to keep them apart, because they are his family and they have become yours too. 

“That’s amazing, I know they’ll love it! I have noticed that you’ve been working really hard these past few weeks. So hopefully you can get some rest.” Now you’re clinging to him putting most of your weight on him and he has no choice but drag you around. 

“Yeah I’m glad that is done. Honestly we both tend to overwork so much that when we have time for us we miss working, but when we are back to the routine we are exhausted.” The ultimate contradiction of you both being extreme perfectionists. He leans besides the fridge and you look up to him, his cute droopy eyes make you feel like you’re wrapped in a warm hug. 

“I really want us to do better about relaxing for our own sanity. It’s a work in progress.” You lift your hands to caress his dimples and cheeks with your thumb.  

“Speaking about that, should I make some tea and call it an early night?” He kindly offers, opening cabinets in search of mugs and the chamomile honey lemon tea packets.  

“Yes please! I’ll get out of these clothes and get ready for bed asap.” You’re endeared by his thoughtfulness as he makes a warm tea for him, but sets aside yours adding extra honey and putting it in the fridge because if it isn’t sweet and cold you make faces of disgust just by tasting a drop. 

“Do you need any help with that?” He checks you up and down with a cheeky smile, the clinking of the spoon swirling around the tea stopping for a brief second.  

“Um that would jeopardize our mission, sir.” You say it with a lower voice, rolling your eyes playfully and watch as he blushes and his ears turn a little bit red.  

“Oh… right.” He shakes his head as if he’s brushing away his suggestive thoughts. 

After taking a long hot shower, you change into a sweatshirt and comfy shorts sitting in front of the vanity desk and mirror. The hue of the night lights around the room setting the mood of relaxation, Chan spent an entire day setting them up and cutely annoying you changing the colors every second. You hear the door slightly open while you’re brushing your hair to prevent the frizz, it will probably get tangled anyways, but just doing this little things give you comfort. 

“What you doing?” He says softly peeking his head through the door, you turn and smile at him extending your arms signaling with your hands to come in. 

“Just brushing this crazy hair, did you wash up already?” You sigh exasperated grabbing the tea he prepared. 

“Yeah, I did before you came home.” He settles his mug besides yours as he quickly moves to the corner of the bed near you. Motioning to scoot closer to him and hand him the brush. 

“You’re the best.” He treats you with the type of care that makes you fall in love over and over again. 

“I’m not hurting you, right?” He asks, worry on his tone. Stopping to hear your answer before continuing, drinking the rest of his tea. 

“Not at all, you’re really good at this actually.” You reassure him because he loves doing this for you is turning into part of his night time routine. He finishes, running his fingers through your hair and kissing the crown of your head as you sip the last drops. 

A few minutes later after going to the bathroom to brush your teeth, you both slip under the blankets. Chan plays Pokemon while listening to his favorite playlist while you attempt to read a chapter of a book, but your mind always wonder to random things instead. 

“You know what we need?” Your out of the blue excitement makes him jump a little, holding on to your wrists because you hit his arm playfully asking for attention. 

“A rocking chair! Think about it, if its big enough we can both fit and take turns.” You start searching for them on the phone to show him different options.  

“Am I completely missing the point or does this sound a bit… naughty?” He stares deep into your eyes cocking his head to the side. 

“Get your head out of the guter! Its another technique to fall asleep we could try. When I was little my grandma used to hold me and I was out like a light after swaying for a bit.” You gently slap the side of his head as if that would solve anything and he laughs.  

“Well, we can definitely try.” He stands up to turnoff the lights, getting back to the bed you pat the space in front of you to cuddle him. You wrap him in a hug crossing your arms on his back moving your hands to rock him a little as if you were on the rocking chair. He lets out a deep breath aligning his head with yours, welcoming the comfortable silence.   

“A la nanita nana, nanita nana, nanita ella, mi niño tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea.” He raises his eyebrows surprised by your singing, but he doesn’t say anything worried that you’ll stop. It’s a famous Hispanic lullaby that at first was intended as a Christmas song about Jesus, but it passed down from generation to generation to help children fall asleep.

“A la nanita nana, nanita nana, nanita ella, mi Channie tiene sueño, bendito sea, bendito sea.” You gently stroke between his eyes and down his nose with your pinky finger. He gives you a soft smile with his eyes closing like crescent moons when he hears his nickname. 

“I’m not fair that I’m drifting away while you sing like an angel. I wish I could rush to the studio and record your voice so I can listen to it on loop when I’m away on tour and imagine that you’re there beside me.” He has confessed before that he struggles to find comfort in strange places like hotel rooms and sometimes the time difference doesn’t help with you whispering throught the phone to at least calm his racing heart. 

“It’s a deal if you also record yours.” You have heard him before jokingly singing it to his members before they hang up and you can’t help but be a little bit jealous. 

“Oh, do you actually mean right now? You love to put me in the spot, don’t you?” He says in surprise when you reach your phone finding the app and placing the phone in between your pillows next to his head. He’s too busy to notice that you already pressed the red button because he’s shuffling to press his hands to your sides under your sweatshirt. 

“Of course I do, I won’t deny it and you lowkey love it.” You brush away the strands of hair that are sticking up and the ones that tickle you when he brushes his nose against yours before positioning your head below his craning his neck to be as close as he can to your phone.  

“Close your eyes, go to sleep.” He carefully places a hand covering your eyes, giggling under his breath when he feels your eyelashes fluttering. 

“Know my love is all around.” His hands travel around your waist to hold you closer to his chest, you hear his heartbeat and try to breathe profoundly to slow down yours.  

“Dream in peace, when you wake.” He sneaks a hand up to pet your hair, spreading his fingers to cover the back of your head, a deep breath escapes your lips. 

“You will know I'm still with you.” He notices that your breathing is evening and slowly remove one from under your clothes to stop the audio recorder without startling you as he also feels himself drift.

"Unlucky Draw" (Uni AU p. 15)

There's finally some fluff guys!!!!!!!!!

tw - anxiety, discussion of weed

Since Halsin's little break-up escapade happened, you actually do get the chance to see Astarion later that night. As of recent, he's been throwing himself into his thesis project more and more, to the point where most of your time hanging is spent with him looking through books and asking 'do you think this sounds right?'

"You know you can take a break, right?"

"I could, you're right, but then I'd just be wasting time. And I'm not allotted much time to work on this."

The two of you are comfortably sprawled across his mattress, like teenagers at a sleepover. You roll over and shut his laptop.

"C'mon, you've been staring at that paper for like two hours."

"And what else should I do, my darling Tav? Maybe stare at the ceiling in silence? Or scroll mindlessly on my phone until I don't feel like moving anymore?"

"Ugh, no! I don't know, take a coffee break. You're probably not going to sleep anyways."

Your best friend almost looks peaceful like this, wrapped in a cozy sweater and sweatpants, always wearing long socks because he gets cold too easily. You find yourself lingering on the thought longer than normal, wishing he could feel that comfortable warmth all the time, wondering it might be like to share in it.

"Tav, are you listening? God, maybe we should just stare at the ceiling in silence."

"Sorry, just spacing out. What were you saying?"

"I was saying, how I should probably cut back on the caffeine."

"Really? Astarion Barista Ancunín, are you turning your back on your beloved espresso machine?"

"Look, I'm not happy about it, but I've been far too anxious as of late. My nerves are on fire constantly, jumping at every little noise I hear. It's irritating, to say the least."

"I thought being caffeinated was how you dealt with the insomnia though?"

"Oh it very much is, which will become a problem soon enough, but I just can't be this nervous constantly."

It's something that you've definitely noticed, how quiet and fidgety he's become recently.

"You considered smoking weed? I know Gale says it helps him zen out, especially when it comes to art stuff."

"Nope, makes me paranoid."

"Damn, unlucky draw I guess."

"You're telling me. I smoked one time back in high school, couldn't sleep for hours, kept thinking someone was out to get me or something."

You start to get lost in the peace of the moment again, the fact that you're able to talk about shit that doesn't matter, how the light from the bedside lamp hits his eyes just right...

"Are you alright? You seem, out of it."

"Sorry, just thinking about what Halsin said to me."

"I can't believe he just broke things off like that, without a reason."

You swallow hard.

"He, he said it's because he thinks you like me? And that he doesn't want to get in the way of that?"

There's silence for a moment, that you jump to fill.

"But that's not true right? We're just friends, I don't know where he would've gotten that idea from."

"Right, I don't know either... sounds like you dodged a bullet with him."

"Yeah, probably so."

God, has he always looked like this? Damn Halsin, damn all those things he said, damn Gale for even playing into it. You remind yourself that Astarion's right, that this doesn't need to get any more complicated than it already is, that he has enough on his plate.

"Now, am I allowed to go back to my thesis now? Or do I need to have more mandatory break time?"

You playfully sigh.

"I guess you can do productive things or whatever."

"Well, in that case would you like to come read what I have?"

"I'll look at it, but you have the cool narrator voice, you have to read it to be like a professional author."

He rolls his eyes, and you go to sit next to him, looking at the thousands of words he's typed at this point. Astarion starts to read it out loud, editing tiny things as he goes, forever a little perfectionist. After a while, the voice becomes too soothing, and you fall asleep there next to him, letting your head hit his shoulder.

"Tav?"

Out of the corner of his eye, he sees you knocked out, clearly exhausted. He doesn't stop reading though, worried if he does that he'll somehow ruin the sleep he's let you stumble into. So he spends the rest of the night rereading out loud and talking to himself, occasionally asking you things that you don't answer. After many hours pass, and the wee hours of the morning arrive, along with the clock turning to say five AM, he puts his laptop aside, and asks you one final question.

"Why do you insist on pulling my heartstrings the way you do?"

And it falls on your sleeping ears, never truly getting through.

Sleepless (Part 1)

Asra Alnazar (The Arcana) x Female!Reader

Genre: (Y/n) can't seem to fall asleep and Asra decides to help.

contains: Dom/Sub Dynamic, Fingering, Choking

A/N: I wrote this about 2 years ago when I was deep in the Arcana fandom and crushing hard on Asra. I don't write much at the moment and a lot has changed in my life, but I thought why not post this old one anyway? I'm planning on posting a second part that I still have from back then and then I'll see if I continue it after that.

-------

"What is it, Darling?", he mumbles, his voice cutting through the soft crinkling of the sheets as you both move - you continuing the tossing and turning that had infected your limbs for half the night already, or so it felt, he to look at you with eyebrows knitted in concern.

"Are you not feeling well? Want me to get you something?"

His torso lifts off the mattress effortlessly only to be held back by your palm, quickly fumbled out from under the blankets. "No no", you whisper. "Thank you, Love. But it's nothing. I just can't sleep." Once again you turn, this time to lay facing him, blanket wrapped around your shoulders tightly and a slow exhale leaving your lungs.

"That doesn't sound like nothing to me, (y/n)." The moonlight dances on his neck, illuminating his lashes, as he looks at you from the corner of his eyes, lost in thought. "Why don't we go into the kitchen and have a little midnight tea? That helped you last time. I enjoy making tea, especially for you, my Love. As you know."

You chuckle and shake your head. "That sounds lovely... " Once again his torso lifts itself, once again you hold him back, sitting up under his attentive gaze. "But it's not like last time. I'm not sure tea would help me tonight."

The corner of his lip twitches up so lightly and at such a pace that you're not sure you actually saw the movement. He raises his eyebrow in concern, yet somehow like he's very well aware of what could help you. "Mmh", he hums, "Is that so?"

"What could possibly not be cured by a cup of tea?", he asks, letting his gaze fall to your lips.

When you don't respond, he lifts your chin with a finger, moving closer. "Huh, Darling?"

You stand his gaze, allowing your lips to form a smirk.

Sly eyes find your neck, collarbones, decoltee, and gentle fingers brush your waist before falling down towards the hem of your pyjama shorts. He lingers, hesitating, looking for signs of consent in you.

So you smile before letting your head fall back and eyes fall shut, and you relax, moments before his hand slips between the warmth of your skin and cool of the silk on your hips. You prepare for his hand where you want it most, almost feeling the touch, almost feeling the warmth of his fingertip dragging up and down, up and down. He stops instead.

"Oh no, Love. First of all, I want to hear you telling me whether you really want me to touch you there. Second of all, be polite and look at me as we unravel the secrets of your insomnia, won't you?"

With a blush on your cheeks and a sigh, you open your eyes and bring down your chin, looking at him expectantly. He taps your lips with his index finger and you cant help but smile. "Yes", you say, gently, looking at him with fascination as he cups your face. "Keep looking", he reminds you.

Your relaxed expression quickly fades as without a warning, he dips into your wetness, then pulls up his finger, then circles your clit in one smooth, quick movement. The pleasure is overwhelming, radiating throughout your body like waves. You can't help but let your lips part in awe as your eyebrows knit, biting your lip and letting your eyes fall shut. Your fingertips dig into his wrist, afraid he'll let go - and you want to scream, beg, cry when he does only moments later. Still attached to his wrist, you feel your hands being pulled up like a puppet, holding onto his arm like your last straw.

You're ready to complain, mouth heavy with questions, when the realization hits you. You closed your eyes. He had told you to keep looking at him.

"I even repeated myself beforehand."

You feel a strong hand grab your jaw when you don't respond within moments, forcing you to look up at his face, observing. There' s no anger painted on his features - amusement, rather, mixed with pure, dangerous, intoxicating lust.

"Did the insomnia affect your ears?", he whispers lowly, playfully concerned. "Or did you lose the willingness to follow commands that are given to you?"

You try to shake your head, but his hand holds your jaw in place. "Use your voice, "(Y/n)", he purrs.

"I- just", you stumble on your words, "I forgot. And it just felt so good and-" You break off, trying to avoid his eyes, but your gaze is limited with your head being held in place.

He notices your struggle and hums softly as you decide to look at his cheek. Picking up your gaze, he moves his eyes into your field of view.

His expression feels like an amused allegation and when you don't make any effort to defend yourself, he slides his hand down from your jaw to your neck. He grabs - lightly at first, then so tight you gasp and fail to hold back a moan.

"Does this help you remember?", he smiles, kissing the tip of your nose. Dizziness corrupts your brain. "Does it?", he asks again, letting you inhale once before applying tight pressure again. You don't speak, even if you could. You just look at him and allow yourself to look as desperate as you feel. You'd be lying if you denied the pleasure that swirls up in your stomach, flowing into a pool of wetness between your legs. And so a noise - half moan, half gasp escapes your throat, and he's quick to let go. You inhale desperately, wrapped into the warm blanket of his careful gaze. This time, real concern is in his voice as he checks in on you. "Was I too rough? Are you okay?"

Still breathing heavily, you take his hand into yours as a response, leading him to wrap around your throat another time. No, you shake your head, "I liked it."

When he doesn't choke you again, you apply pressure to his hand, encouraging him, but now he's the one to shake his head. "Patience, Darling, not too fast. We do intend to get you tired after all, right?"

You feel yourself long for his touch not even moments after he pulls his hands from you completely, grabbing a pillow and making his way back through the tangled sheets to lean onto the headboard. Through eyes narrowed in confusion, you watch his moonlit frame get comfortable on the other side of the bed, away from you.

"Hm?", he makes. "All clothes off, then touch yourself."

[celestie0]

hello ellie. ok jk sorry for that npc greeting. sometimes i like to just spawn behind ppl and go “hello” in that npc ass voice to scare them. ok anyways

HELLO ELLIE 😁😁😁😁

headcannon that ihm gojo has a healthy sleep schedule while reader obviously has a rlly bad one and on her days off ihm gojo will force her to go to bed and eventually reader’s sleep schedule is saved woohoo! hmm that might not be realistic though cuz reader is a night shift worker…maybe she asks to move to morning shift so she has her nights free so gojo drags her to bed with him and they cuddle and sleep early and it happens so often that reader gets used to sleeping early with gojo and whenever he goes on his business trips reader has a harder time sleeping

gojo will also make reader go on morning runs with him but reader gives up and walks or goes back home or just doesnt go in the first place cuz no way is she letting a man dictate how she lives 😂😂😂

when reader is bored she starts bothering gojo and gojo usually just deals with it by annoying her back or jhst ignoring her cuz he’s a real man 🙏 but sometimes he gets annoyed and then boom he kisses her to shut her up BOOMSHAKALAKA YES GAWD 🙏🙏🙏

gojo and reader argue about what show to watch or what music to play on a car ride, in the morning etc and reader almost always wins cuz gojo kinda just…gives in to reader. she too much of a baddie to say no to 🙏🙏

gojo is pretty much as dense as a rock but sometimes he will spit out the most poetic confession about how beautiful reader is or how much he loves her and then goes back to watching the news or idk looking at his avocadoes and reader is left super flustered and tries to recover by calling him stupid

when reader realizes gojo rlly loves eating homemade sweets and she gets less annoyed over gojo sneaking a couple bites she starts baking more just for him ���

ok headcannons accurate true or false 🤔

anyways, i hope youre doing well and staying safe!!! your writing is, as always, amazing 👅

hiiii darling. ok first of all, major sorry for the late response to this 😭 i have no excuse lol sometimes i just get phone/typing fatigue but i read this ask around when you first sent it in and it had me GIGGLINGGG hahaha i def agree w a lot of these but will also be honest ab what i disagree with 🤔

ok the first one is actually so accurate that it’s canon! there’s a whole half of a chapter that explores their mismatched sleeping schedules :) i guess it’s already been revealed that reader has some type of insomnia or issues falling asleep, and her sleep schedule is so messed up from working night shift at the ED. but small spoiler - turns out she sleeps much better when she sleeps in the same bed as gojo 🤭 aww her having a hard time sleeping when he’s away 🥺 stoppp my heart. and yes even though she’s night shift, she only works 3 days a week! so four days in the week she’s just fighting demons trying to fall asleep at a reasonable hour lol

and the second one is also so real hahha there’s also a line somewhere in my notes where she says sumn like “the last thing i’d want for my husband to do at 6am when i come home from a night shift is drag me out the house again to go for a RUN. what i’d actually want is for him to just lick my fucking vagina” 🤣🤣🤣 she’s kinda crass

AW thats cute haha but yes absolutely i think ihm gojo has a high tolerance lvl for reader’s bullshit xd he’s just like aight then. and YES he knows not to say no to a baddie lol.

that’s trueee i love dumb n dense gojo sm 😭😭 although i feel like ihm gojo is reaaaallyyy hella fkn bad at using his words to show ppl he cares about them. he’s more of an actions over words guy. i can’t see him being particularly poetic about anything (it’s just not in his vocab) BUT…he would be so sweet sometimes outta nowhere like remembering some fruit that she really liked once so he brings home three whole boxes of it or he takes her car out to get her gas before the work week starts or sumn :) he’s giving provider lol. i think in all of ihm there’s only one scene i’ve planned where he goes the poetic love confession route and it’s waaaay towards the end (although they are very affectionate in many other ways prior to this, it’s just moreso done through all the little gestures rather than any grand speech)

HAHHA the baking one is cuuute. i think at some point she may rely on him to taste things but also i feel like ihm reader bakes for the stress relief n not so much to eat anything so she’d probs be glad that he’s eating all of it so that nothing goes to waste hahaha

10+++/10 accurate headcanons some of the most accurate headcanons i’ve gotten for ihm thus far!! thanks bb for interacting w my works :)

[vergilthelibrarian]

I find it hard to breathe.

I swear I hear something in my closet.

No… I think it’s someone, it has to be.

Someone has been leaving me love letters.

At first it gave me chills simply how poetically he would write his yearn for me.

Then it started giving me chills for weirdly needy he was becoming for me.

Then finally it would fill me dread without unabashedly obsessive he became for me.

Right now, I’m laying down in my bed trying to calm my breathing.

I’ve been having some issues with them as of late and I would hear them scattering around but recently they would sometimes become silent.

Usually I fall asleep pretty fast and once I’m sleep, it’s hard for me to wake but I’ve been dealing with a bout of insomnia, mostly from stressed and anxiety.

Both from college and from the love letters.

At first I thought I was being paranoid about someone being in my home, most people are but when I noticed the mice’s movements cease and whatever video I had playing stop and the room silent… I noticed that the room wasn’t completely silent.

I heard breathing.

Light and soft, like as if someone was trying to not be noticed.

The first night I noticed this, I pretended to wake up and ran to my bathroom to take some NyQuil to force myself asleep.

I know that was really stupid but the police never take stalking cases seriously until it’s too late and even then they still don’t…

Anyway, whosever been in my room, in my closet watching me sleep sent me a letter this morning before school telling me that everything will make sense tonight.

My breathing is erratic as I hear my closet door creak open and I shut my eyes immediately, squeezing them so hard.

I need someone to help me, to save me from whoever this is.

“HELP-���

My eyes open quickly, widen as I come face to face with-

“Don’t shout, you know your neighbors are elderly.” Mark quietly said in a chastising tone.

My heart sunk and my body turned cold.

How could my own best friend do this?

[z-yinn]

This is just a vent

This is really just a vent. I don't expect anyone to click on this. But if you are reading this, hello! Maybe posting this will make me feel better or maybe it won't, gonna try it anyway to silence the voice in my head that has been saying "Said Something About It!"

For like around one year, my mental and physical health has just been spiraling down and down. My mental health isn't great to start with, but it's never been this bad haha.

I just, lose all energy, interest, and motivation to do anything. Every day my body feels so heavy and tired, it's hard to get up and move. I have lost my appetite as well. I can't even feel much when I try to do things that used to bring me joy. Time passed by without me being aware, I blinked and the next thing I knew, hours had already passed. I'm also dealing with my anxiety, the dark clouds of negativity, feeling scared and worried and telling myself to just do something, and feeling worse when I still can't make myself do anything. Insomnia, constantly waking up in the middle of sleep after finally falling asleep, the on-and-off fevers, the little more than 1-week fever, the other illnesses, and the infection of the injuries on my hand caused by animal bites don't make it easier (It's like almost every month I get some damages that weaken my body lol. This year is not a good year for me so far)

Anyway, I'm feeling at least a little better now, even if it's still a long way or perhaps a never-ending struggle to get back to 100%. So ya

[adamnsey]

do u have fave adansey hc!!!!! 👁👄👁

omg hiiii i love this ask 👉👈 i had to think about it but some of my favs are....

i hc that adam and gansey kissed once pre-the raven cycle and then never speak about it again and u can read my interpretation of that in my fic lololol...

(not even an hc its basically canon that) adam really likes touch but is too proud to ask for it but i like to think that once he becomes closer with gansey he starts putting his head on gansey's shoulder/leaning on gansey like he does to blue in that one backyard scene... and gansey's reaction is basically the same as blue's, he just Stops Breathing bc he feels so fortunate that adam has chosen HIM to rest his weary head and so he wants the moment to last as long as possible

i hc that adam doesn't sleep well, he doesn't have insomnia like gans but i think he just has a hard time falling asleep when he's at the trailer park. but once he meets Gansey he finds it like weirdly easy to fall asleep in his presence lol, not bc gansey is boring but bc adam just feels really safe in his presence. so like its so easy for adam to fall asleep in the Pig or on the couch on monmouth or something. he had never been a napper but he just falls asleep super easy in gansey's presence.

gansey likes to think of ways he can help adam but also think of ways that he can make adam accept that help. so like gansey will learn about hair cutting or take massage lessons and then he'll be like "adam will u help me and let me practice cutting ur hair" or "adam please i need to practice my massage on a real person please you'd be doing me a favour" and adam knows exactly what he's doing but after a while he still lets gansey and after a while adam thinks it's really sweet. and for gansey the whole time it's just an excuse to help adam and to touch him lol

I THINK, GANSEY THE TYPE OF DUDE TO HOLD HANDS WITH HIS HOMIES. I THINK HE HOLDS HANDS ALL THE TIME. I THINK ADAM AND GANSEY HOLD HANDS. !! :)

jkffjdks so yeah anyways those are some of my favs. i could def go on!!! thank u for this ask i love talking about them <3 <3 yipeeee

Vaggie's Classification: Chapter 16

When Vaggie woke up in the morning, she actually felt refreshed. It was rare that she ever felt good and rested after a night’s slumber. Nightmares and insomnia usually kept her awake at night so it was really lucky that she felt refreshed afterwards. Then it hit her. She regressed the whole day yesterday. And people saw her. 

She really did not want to start panicking, first thing in the morning, so she tried to calm her nerves and take a deep breath. She needed to get changed out of this onesie and semi-sodden diaper. Charlie was still asleep since it was around 6:30 in the morning. That meant she would need to figure out how to get out of this stuff on her own.

She waddled over to her dresser, grabbed a change of clothes and headed to the bathroom. She laid down on the floor and tried to remember how Charlie changed her. The snaps needed to come undone before she did anything, so she tried to undo them. It was a bit difficult since they had some child proof magic to them, but she eventually got them undone. Now she needed to undo the tapes of her diaper. After ripping them off, the balled it up and threw it in the garbage before putting her underwear and a new skirt on, forgetting to do the wipes. 

Once she was all dressed and ready for the day, her brain started to focus on the anxiety again now that nothing was stopping it. She sat on their small couch and tried to relax but nothing was working. How many people had seen her being so vulnerable? No one was going to fear her now. What if people were grossed out with her? Her breathing started to get a little faster. Her clothes felt too constricting and tight. Her heart pounded in her chest. All she could think about was how weak she had been and that people had seen it. 

“Calm down, Vaggie, just calm down, you’re gonna wake Charlie,” She muttered to herself, tugging at her hair. Now was absolutely not the time for an anxiety attack

She tried covering her mouth to silence her heavy and loud breathing, but it was making her lightheaded. Why couldn’t she just be a normal functioning adult?!

“...Vaggie?” Charlie rubbed her eyes as she sat up. Something had woken her. It didn’t feel like it was from anything physical though. More like something mental. But anyways, she was awake and noticed strange noises coming from the window where their couch was. She looked over and saw Vaggie, breathing heavily and pulling at her hair. At first, a small part of her just wanted to go back to sleep, but her Mama bear side jumped out, making her get out of bed and walk over to her, worried.

“Hey, sweetie, look at me. You don’t have to make eye contact, just look,” Charlie encouraged. Vaggie looked up, her chest rising and falling at a quick rate with tears in her eyes.

“I want you to tell me something you can see,” she said. Vaggie, though confused, looked around.

“Um, B-bed,” she replied. 

“Thats good, sweetie. Now can you name four more?” Charlie asked. Vaggie shook her head. Naming the bed was already hard for her to do, how was she going to focus on four more things?!

“You can do it, Vaggie, I believe in you,” Charlie held her hand. Shakily and slowly, Vaggie started naming.

After she went through the last four, she needed to name four things she could touch. She felt around, grabbing her Koala in the process. She wasn’t going to regress again, but needed the comfort of him. When they got through the 4, they started on 3 things she could hear. After that, two things she could smell, and then one thing she could taste. 

“There, are you feeling a little better?” Charlie asked. Vaggie nodded. It did help calm her mind a little bit and stop all the anxious thoughts.

“What caused that, sweetheart?” the princess questioned.

“I- How many people saw me, Charlie?” Vaggie counter-asked.

“Oh, is that what’s got you worked up about? Don’t worry, Hun, only the residents saw you regressing and I did all your changing,” Charlie assured. That assurance helped Vaggie feel somewhat better about the situation. 

“Can i give you a hug?” the princess asked. Vaggie nodded and she embraced her in a hug. They sat there for a couple minutes in silence, comforted in each other's arms. That was until Charlie pulled away.

“I think we need to talk, Vaggie”

🔮 Why did I choose him for you?

1. Sneaky, fairly smug and a little mysterious. Perfect ler material if you ask me 😌 2. I see him as a very caring and careful soul, who doesn't bond with everyone but holds extremely close the ones who manage to gain his trust 3. He would be able to understand if you need help or are struggling mentally, and he'd be there 24/7 for you 4. He could use his quirk to induce relaxation and/or make you fall asleep... obviously if you're comfortable with it and give your consent 5. He would totally get involved in your hobbies! I already see you two painting or doing ceramics together 6. You probably have made a "couple sculpture"... like a heart broken in half and each one of you keeps a half in their bedroom 7. He trained with Aizawa. He knows how to be silent. Expect surprise tickle attacks from any direction at any time~ 8. He'd be extremely happy to read your writings and give you a review about them!! He'd probably use tickling to convince you to let him read them hehe 9. Tickles whenever you say that you suck at what you do! He doesn't tolerate when someone talks badly about someone he loves (even when it's you talking badly about yourself) 10. He finds it extremely cute when you space out and daydream, so instead of interrupting you, he would cuddle up to you and hold you in his arms while you imagine any kind of scenario 11. He probably volunteers cat shelter, and sometimes you join him. Seeing how gentle he is with cats made you fall in love with him all over again. 12. When his insomnia hits hard, he comes to your room and you two end up hanging out together all night long. Or if you fall asleep, he just cuddles you and watches over you, as if he could keep bad dreams away.

🔮 Tickle scenario

Everyone liked weekends, but you surely had one more reason to enjoy them. Both you and Shinsou were free from school, which only meant one thing: date!

You always did something different: watching anime, making sculptures, painting, chatting, taking walks... one time you even tried to crochet, but he made a mess and got so grumpy that you decided to drop that activity.

That Saturday, you two decided to go at the cat shelter to do some volunteering. It was a really unusual date, but you loved spending time with each other and a ton of purring furballs. Also, the happy, adoring expression on Shinsou's face was so endearing...

The owners of the shelter were extremely nice with you, and they adored how you spent your free time on "volunteering dates". Obviously they made you work a little, but then they let you play with the kitties as much as you wanted! Actually, they let you play until it was closing time... or else you would've never gone back home.

"Hey baby I'm done with Kai, we can go home." Shinsou called for you after leaving a 5-month-old kitten to sleep, but he got no response. He saw you sitting on a chair, your back was facing him. "Baby didn't you hear me? We got-" "Shh!" You suddenly interrupted him.

He raised an eyebrow and approached you, and he couldn't believe his eyes. The new refugee of the cat shelter, who refused even to approach the sweet owners, was cuddled up on your lap and peacefully asleep. "Would you look at that..." the tall teenager smiled, "seems like this little rascal finally chose someone to trust." He was overjoyed to see that furball finally open up.

"Too bad that this human is already busy with someone else~" He reached out to grab the kitten and put him back in his sleeping pillow, but you swatted his hands away. "You're not ruining this moment..!" You whisper-yelled to not disturb the sleepy little angel, "It took me the whole day to get to this point, now we're staying here." You stated, more assertive than ever.

Your boyfriend raised an eyebrow, clearly amused with your antics, "Oh really? Then it would be a shame if a sudden earthquake disrupted your peace~"

You didn't have time to ask him what he meant. A tingly feeling spread throughout your body, making you almost jump and throw away the poor kitten. "Shinsohohou!! Stahap ihihihihit!!" You did your best to keep your legs still and not wake the little furball, but at the same time you desperately tried to swat Shinsou's hands away from your sides.

"But I'm doing nothing, honey... it's just the earthquake." He mused, close enough to your ear to make it tickle, and then blew a raspberry on your neck for good measure. He had to admit, he was a little surprised by how much you were resisting the impulse to squirm away. In other circumstances, you would've already jumped away and hidden somewhere, maybe curled up in a ball.

"Wow, not so squirmy now that you have the little rascal on your lap, huh?" He asked as his fingers played with both sides of your ribcage as if it was a piano, "I think we should name him Giggles... a fitting name related to a wonderful memory like this one..." He thought out loud with the clear intent to tease.

However, the fun had to come to an end. The owners were closing up and you two had to go back to school. He chuckled evilly and without wasting time, he drilled softly under your arms. This time, you couldn't hold back the squeal, which woke up the cat.

"Ah... you're finally awake, Giggles. Did you have a nice rest on my girlfriend's lap?" The violet-haired guy slowly approached the cat, "Now it's time to go to your actual bed, though. But we'll be back soon, alright?" He picked up the little one and laid him on his sleeping pillow and waited for him to fall asleep, then he looked at you and helped you up.

"Come on, say goodbye to giggles and get ready to go, or else I'll let you alone in Aizawa's clutches if we arrive late to UA." He told you with a smug grin on his face. You quickly got ready, not wanting to be scolded by the strict teacher, said goodbye to the owners and got on your way with your boyfriend.

"So... did you have fun on this date, Giggles 2?" Shinsou asked, laughing at how red your face turned, which made you smack his arm in utter embarrassment.

"Shut up..."

Just read your shifting post. And I feel like I struggle with lucid dreaming now that my frontal lobe developed. It sucks. Do you have any advice for newbies who are attempting to shift? It’s all very new to me! Thank you in advance🫡😚💙

Hello! First of all, I want to say that I think I've stumbled upon your acc somewhere else and I thought you were a shifter because of the oc as your pfp... I guess I was right hehe🤭

also, do you mean that you wanted to use the lucid dreaming method to shift, because ofc shifting is not a lucid dream but ld can be used to shift

anyways, I think the best thing to do is to keep a positive mindset no matter what and to think of it as easy and simple, don't try to overcomplicate it

Here is a post I made when someone else asked me how do I shift:

| post | (it has some methods in there)

Anyways this response is extremely long, hopefully it's helpful:

Now as for lucid dreaming(ld), there are many ways to do it:

one. wbtb method

-set an alarm for 4-5 hrs for after when you fall asleep and then sleep. when the alarm wakes you up, get out of bed and do something (go to the bathroom, maybe do a reality check, practice what you're going to do in your ld/ how you're going to shift etc, just try to wake yourself up a bit for 5-10 minutes. You can even think about lucid dreaming or whatever. If you have a hard time falling back asleep then stay up for just 5 minutes. Or if you have a really hard time, then just stay in bed awake for those 5 minutes. Anyways, go back to bed lay down and start affirming "I'm aware I'm dreaming" over and over again until you fall asleep. From there you'll either get right into the lucid dream while still awake, you'll feel like you're getting sucked into the dream and feel your mind zooming in and out until you're in the dream straight from the awake stage and so ofc you'll be lucid. OR you'll fall asleep and your dream will be lucid. If not try again next time (but I've had good success with this method.

two. supplements

-for legal purposes, i'm not responsible or advising anyone to take any sort of medicine.

Use galantamine(I got mine from amazon). Take the recommended amount which is like 4-5mg. How to use: go to bed and set an alarm for your REM stage(4-5hrs) fall asleep, wake up with the alarm, take the galantamine and immediately try to fall asleep as fast as you can before it starts taking effect and prevents you from falling asleep which is the main problem I have from it since I had insomnia for a while so the extra boost from galantamine didn't help my sleeping problem. It's best to have the galantamine somewhere next to your bed with a glass of water. wake up, drink it and fall back asleep as fast as you can and your dream should be lucid. Only use the galantamine once a week or at least 5 days of spacing between uses so the effects don't ware off.

three. lay down, close your eyes and start moving them left and right for about 10-15 minutes until you feel like you're ready(don't move during this process so make sure you choose a comfortable position. This will trick your body into thinking that you're in REM stage. You can probably fall asleep from there(which will most likely give you a lucid dream or you continue on. When you feel like it's enough, try opening your eyes and you'll feel your body go stiff and like you can't move: sleep paralysis. From sleep paralysis, just affirm that you're in your dr or try to visualize it while affirming. You should shift quickly.

four. subliminals

use lucid dream subliminals 2-3x a day while doing anything (or at night before sleeping- it doesn't matter when you listen to it) and then at night your dream should be lucid.

top subliminals on youtube that work well:

a. lucid dream . -by V1PER

b. 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐎𝐅 𝐃𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒·˚ ༘improved perilously forced lucid dreaming subliminal (LISTEN ONCE) -by kiraミズキ's domain

you can listen to it more than once

c. ❝Dreaming°// Lucid Dream Package [sᴜʙʟɪᴍɪɴᴀʟ] by Enchanted Workshop

d. ♡ Lucid Dreaming Listen Once Noonchi Subliminals by シ Jay's Nirvana ヅ (the original uploader deleted their channel but this subliminal still works)

⎯⎯⎯

Using subliminals are really easy, use it, don't doubt it and don't waiver and be like "omg when are results gonna come....is this working...I don't think it's working...I don't have results" blah blah blah because then it won't work since you're repeating that and your mind will believe those doubts since the mind is stronger than any subliminal. Just listen 2-3x and don't worry or stress about it. Best to just assume it's working and that you have results and you should be good to go.

You can also use shifting subliminals as well

As for techniques, I already gave you a link earlier on in this post but you can also use the julia method, sunni method, raven method, 5 senses method. Or you can just lay down, relax and calm down then start visualizing that you're in your dr (1st person pov ofc) and think about how things look like in front of you, some noises you might hear, some things you might smell, how the round under you feels like etc and then start affirming that you're in your dr while continue to visualize. That has honestly gotten me pretty close plenty of times.

Sorry this was so long (I know all of my shifting posts are😅). If you want any shifting sub recommendations just lmk or if you have any more questions, just hmu in my inbox or whatever❤️
