Qiu's name isn't pronounced like "queue"!

It's pronounced more like "chio"

It's like saying both the Italian goodbye "ciao" and the Chinese surname "Cho" at the same time!

It starts with a "ch" that drags into a light "ee" (in an "i" way, like "ii") and ends with a flat "o" like you're going :o !

pspspps.. totally not golden groovy woops

ANYWAYS HII!! heard u were open for requests. may i request tammy + qiu with and an artist reader :00

requests of my favorite fandoms are my catnip good gof woa who could this be‽‽ my reqs and my ask box are like always open btw >◡<

extra note/s: I refer to step 1 Qiu as he/him. Uhhh take this as platonic or romantic, I'll add an indicator for romance (𐙚) ^^

more under the cut > o

✧ At 10 years old, QIU's fascinated. How he discovers your interest and skill in arts varies but his reaction doesn't. He's impressed! Whether digital or traditional, Qiu would love to participate especially if you asked him yourself.

For this reason, he carries an extra pen and even those colored ones just in case you get bored or if you're suddenly struck by creativity when you two are playing :3

✧ The first time you show him one of your doodles you made during class, he's compelled to do the same whether or not you actually give him it. And ever since, you two've been exchanging these sketches during class. It's the cutest scene to walk into.

✧ URGH AND THE THINGS HE DOES WHEN YOU TELL HIM ABOUT ART BLOCK DEPENDING ON HOW AND WHAT YOU DRAW

You're into drawing sceneries? Trust that he starts telling you and Tamarack about more "special things" in the forest and/or the town.

Like the sky? There's this clearing a lot further into the forest at your backyards. Stargaze, watch the clouds and the sunset together?

✧ It's also necessary for me to mention that unlike his notes, lazily pressed against eachother and constantly on the run, anything you give him goes to a safe space probably in between a books pages, under the the matress of his bed or inside a drawer/container.

"They broke into my backyard accidentally, 'cause they were on a crazy investigation about a paper airplane. Plus, they got here a day ago and they're already looking out for me. Normally, I'm the one doing that."

"Besides, they're pretty. And they make me pretty. Look! Look how they drew me!"

✧ As for 10-year-old TAMARACK, she's curious. The things you draw, are they based on actual places? Actual people? Oh, you draw based on your imagination? Elaborate.

✧ At some point in the prologue, she says "All the forests in the world are different, and some places don't even have forests. I can show you good spots to find things since you're newer to this forest than me."

And I can't not think of her running up to you to give you all of what she gathered for you to draw like omfg

With all those leaves and tiny branches sticking out of her hair and sweater, she smiles brightly with her hands filled with her treasures. AUGH SHE MAKES ME SO SICK I LOVE HER

✧ Like Qiu, she has her own safe spot designated for only your drawings if you've given her any.

She shows off all of them. Especially if you've drawn her?? It'll be the only thing she talks about during literally any time for the rest of the month and the few months after.

"Out of all the friends I have here, you're the best one. We came to the same exact neighborhood, almost at the same time, and are he same age. You have fun outside and I do too."

"I think you're pretty. How you draw me is pretty! I've never met a kid who was just like me. That's important. That's serious."

✧ Now, 14-year-old QIU's pretty much no different. They're even more impressed when they see just how much you've improved. Nonetheless, they treasure your old drawings just as much as they do they new.

They take the liberty of providing you with both a pen and paper to draw on when you're together, in case you don't bring your sketchbook (if you own one).

On those days where you two just sit in silence in their hideout, their gaze drifts to your side quietly a few times to watch your progress. After a while, they settle with sitting right next to you and watching the stroke of your pen against the paper as the scene forms with each hatch.

✧ As a teen, they've actually been a tad bit farther off the town when they feel like taking a ride on their bike. They've seen many sights and burn the route into their brain for them to tell you about. They'd even be happy as to bring you there themselves.

✧ If you ask them to be your muse, good god you'd need to tell them what to do.

It's almost a funny sight. Qiu, the kid who knew what to do their whole life asks you, "Should I pose? Where do I look? Ah- what's my good side?"

𐙚 They can feel their breath hitch under your scrutiny. Suddenly, they're concious of every single thing about them. Where do their eyes go? Should they move their hands? Is their hair in the way?

They avert their gaze flusteredly, their head ever so slightly moving to the side when they do so.

And good god do their hands clutch the fabric of their pants when you tell them to look at you properly.

✧ Same goes for TAMARACK at 14. She's as intrugued as ever to hear about your work. She admires (you)r style from then till now and has learned to appreciate the time gone into things as simple as this, whether or not you've made it with her in mind. BUT GOD IF YOU TELL HER IT IS, it's always sitting on her desk and she thinks constantly about what you've done for her.

✧ And while she doesn't exactly bring you a pen, she's more than glad to hand you hers when you need it.

✧ Unlike before, she'd now be at your side when you two hung out at her backyard. She'd be sitting across from you, practicing the cello. The hum of her instrument accompanied by the sound of nature and the scratch of your pen against paper gives her a sense of calmness.

This may also be when she realizes she's been your muse! Her fingers trace over where your pen has been and boy appreciate isn't even enough for her to describe how she felt. It was definitely happy, but that wasn't the word either.

𐙚 Her heart pounds alarmingly as she admires your work. It's almost concerning to you that she sits silently with a blank expression as she held your sketchbook in her hands.

But that concern washes off you as soon as a warm smile curls the corners of her lips, tender adoration displayed all over her face.

while playing the demo i experienced lots of dialogues like this 🥹 i guess it's because i chose crushes during step 1

i love child crushes, so innocent and clumsy, it's fun to play as a kid who gets flustered easily because the kid can't process those feelings very well kakskdkskf makes me giggle every time, reminds me of my childhood so bad

isn't she the best friend a kid can ever have?? love the "i saw a cool rock so i brought it for you" love language uwuwuwuwuwuwuwu

and i knew choosing him as a crush would be right on point... like, my younger-self would've FALLEN for qiu SO bad irl —I'm one of those who have self-insert MC, what about it

omg, i wish parents were real

qiu when he founds out about my pronouns 🥹🥹🥹

''Your hair is very soft-'' Qiu Lin x Reader

Synopsis: You're hanging out with Qiu at your house on a rainy day when you suddenly take notice of Qiu's fluffy hair

a/n: Takes place during step 2 keep in mind it's my first time writing- there will be mistakes and bad grammar /ᐠ. .ᐟ\ฅ

It's another uneventful day in Golden Grove, today was a rainy day and you found yourself in the warmth of your bedroom, laying on your bed staring at the rain droplets on your window, when suddenly you hear. . . ''AGH!! How is this level so freaking hard!?'' ah, yes...you almost forgot Qiu was here too.

You and Qiu hang out almost everyday, it's such a common occurence you've already exhausted all possible topics of conversation resolving to just doing your own thing in the company of the other without the need to say a word, not that you minded of course, Qiu was one of your favourite people, you could even say you had a tiny little crush on them but nothing big you know. .

While lost in thought your eyes suddenly fell on the back of Qiu's head, they were busy trying to beat a level of some videogame their parents gifted them at the start of summer, Qiu was so concentrated that they didn't even notice your hand slowly approaching them until they've felt it running through their hair.

They froze.

Qiu's hair was surprisingly soft! That's the first thing you thought, honestly you've always wanted to try touching it but Qiu always managed to slip away every time, you could hear a voice coming from the little console in their hands saying something among the lines of ''You've lost'' then you noticed Qiu had turned completely radio silent and their ears looked a bit red, then an evil grin started appearing on your face but you quickly turned it into an innocent smile ''Qiu your hair is so soft!'' then Qiu turned to look back at you with a pouty expression on their face ''since when did I give you permission to touch my hair?'' they didn't look angry though, but...flustered??

Oh. so this is the kind of game they wanted to play? Alright you dont mind a bit of teasing ''I can't? you didn't say anything when i touched it though'' you said poking at their cheek with your finger as they frustately stared at the wooden floor sighing in defeat '' I've never said that you CAN'T touch, but it would be nice if you warn me next time you know..'' they say, the last part was almost like a tiny whisper but you managed to catch it, noticing your eyes staring at them they decide to get back into their game, but this time laying their head onto the matress of your bed, suddenly you find yourself giving Qiu head scratches while they try to concentrate on their game, but by how red their ears are, they're not doing that good of a job, hehe~

Flustered Qiu is the best kind of Qiu, also im sorry if this sucks- I tried(╥ ω ╥)
