Authors notes: This wasn't a request as I had this idea, but an anon asked about this which you can find here!

Also, to all the littles, seeing this, please tred lightly on this blog! This is my big 18+ blog, but I do have some little!reader fics. Everything is marked accordingly!

You let out a sigh as your backpack slips off your shoulder and makes a thud on the ground. It's finally Friday. But there has been anxiety gnawing at you all week. A question that swirls in your mind, one you've been too scared to ask. You promised yourself that once the week was over you would finally bring it up. Wanda shuts the door behind her with a tension still in her shoulders. She tosses her keys in the bowl next to the door. Her eyes then landed on you. Her brows furrow looking at you. You have been different this first week back. You haven't slipped once, maintaining your big space. She can see there is an internal fight waging inside of you. A hand is placed on your shoulder. 

"It's okay to slip malyshka, the week is over, you don't need to be big anymore. Mama is here." Wanda's words are soft and comforting, and normally it would make you slip instantly but not today. You don't feel it and you have something more important on your mind. 

"Can...can we um talk before I get little?" You squirm nervously under her gaze. 

"Of course we can Malyshka." She speaks softly and moves the two of you to the living room. Setting the two of you down on the couch. "Go on Malyshka." You take in a deep breath, letting it out a bit shakily, "I...I think I um..." Why was this so hard? You take in a deep breath, trying to steady your nerves, but your heart is pounding against your chest. The words feel like they're stuck in your throat, but you know you can't turn back now.

"I... I think I have feelings for you," you whisper, looking down at your hands in your lap. "Not just Mama feelings... but... other feelings too." Your voice shakes a little, but you push through. "I don't know if it’s okay to say that. Or if it’s weird, but I can't stop thinking about you."

Wanda’s head tilts slightly, her sharp green eyes softening as she processes your words. Her hand, which had been gently rubbing small circles on your back, stills for a moment. You feel your heartbeat pounding in your ears as you lower your gaze, suddenly afraid to see her reaction.

For a brief, excruciating moment, there’s silence. Then, Wanda exhales, her hand moving up to tuck a strand of hair behind your ear.

“Malyshka…” Her voice is gentle, almost tentative. “Look at me.”

You do, albeit hesitantly, and what you find in her expression isn’t rejection or discomfort—it’s something softer, something unreadable but warm.

“You have feelings for me?” she repeats, as if testing the words out, making sure she understood.

You nod, nervously fiddling with the hem of your sleeve. “Y-yeah… I mean, I love being your little, but when I’m big, I feel… different about you. I think about what it would be like to be your girlfriend… to—” You swallow hard, heat rising to your cheeks. “To have all of you, not just as my Mama but—more.”

Wanda hums, cupping your cheek, her thumb brushing gently over your skin. “Oh, my sweet girl…” she murmurs.

You brace yourself, half-expecting her to let you down easily, to tell you that she only sees you as her little one. But then her lips curl into a knowing smile.

“You think I don’t already adore every part of you?” she asks, amusement laced in her tone. “Big or little, you are mine. My sweet, brilliant girl. My Malyshka.”

Your breath catches. “So… you—”

She leans in, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead, lingering there. “I love you in all your forms,” she murmurs against your skin. “As my little one, and if you want more… I want it too.”

Tears prick your eyes at her words, at the security and love in them. “Really?”

Wanda chuckles, tilting your chin up with her fingers so your eyes meet hers again. “Really.” Then, with a playful glint in her eyes, she adds, “Now, do you feel better, my love? Ready to slip now that all that big stress is off your shoulders?”

You let out a giggle, the relief washing over you as the weight you’d been carrying all week finally lifts. You nod, already feeling the warmth of your little space creeping in at the edges.

“There’s my Malyshka,” Wanda coos, gathering you into her arms. “Come, let Mama take care of you.”

✎✐ ✎ ✐ ✎ ✐

The episode played on the screen, but you weren’t really paying attention anymore. The warmth of Wanda's body against yours, the steady rhythm of her heartbeat under your ear—it was far more captivating than whatever was happening in the show. The two of you had been curled up together like this all day, wrapped in blankets and surrounded by the remains of takeout containers, content in each other's presence.

Wanda absentmindedly traced patterns on your arm, her fingers featherlight. It sent shivers down your spine, but not in a bad way—in a way that made you feel cherished, made you crave more. You nuzzled into her a little deeper, sighing in contentment, and she chuckled softly.

"Comfy, Malyshka?" she murmured, her voice thick with affection.

You nodded against her chest. “Mmhm… so comfy. Don’t wanna move ever.”

Wanda hummed, her hand shifting to tuck a strand of hair behind your ear. “Good.”

You tilted your head up slightly, meeting her gaze, and your breath hitched. There was something different in her eyes—something softer, something deeper. The flickering light of the TV cast shadows across her face, but it couldn’t hide the way she was looking at you.

Your heart pounded in your chest. This was it, wasn’t it? That moment you had always imagined, dreamt about. The moment when everything shifts—when something unspoken finally clicks into place.

Wanda’s fingers brushed against your jaw, a gentle, questioning touch. “Can I kiss you, Malyshka?”

You felt like you forgot how to breathe. The world around you seemed to slow, the only thing grounding you was the warmth of her, the way she was holding you so carefully, as if you were something precious.

“Yes,” you whispered, your lips barely forming the word before Wanda closed the distance between you.

The kiss was soft, unhurried. A tender press of lips that sent warmth flooding through your entire body. She tasted faintly of the sweet and sour sauce from dinner, and you smiled into the kiss, your fingers gripping onto her hoodie like you never wanted to let go.

Wanda pulled back just a fraction, resting her forehead against yours. “Mmm… my sweet girl,” she murmured, rubbing her nose against yours. “That was perfect.”

You giggled, feeling light, feeling full. “Can we do it again?”

Her lips curled into a smirk. “Oh, Malyshka… you never have to ask.”

And with that, she kissed you again, deeper this time, sealing the promise of something new, something beautiful, between the two of you.

Wanda kept you close after that second kiss, her arms securing you against her like she was afraid you’d disappear if she let go. The TV continued playing in the background, but neither of you paid it any attention. You just basked in the moment, the warmth, the newness of what had just happened.

Your heart was still racing, excitement buzzing through your veins like electricity. You traced small patterns on Wanda’s chest, feeling the fabric of her hoodie beneath your fingers, while she lazily ran her nails up and down your back, sending pleasant shivers through you.

After a few moments of comfortable silence, you finally whispered, “So, um… does this mean you’re my girlfriend now?”

Wanda chuckled softly, pressing a kiss to the top of your head. “Do you want me to be, Malyshka?”

You nodded quickly, looking up at her with wide eyes. “Yes… really bad.”

Her smile was soft, fond. “Then I’m yours.”

A small giggle bubbled up in your throat, and you hid your face against her chest, suddenly feeling a little shy. Wanda only chuckled again, squeezing you gently before reaching over to grab one of the half-empty takeout boxes.

“Alright, my girlfriend, have a bite,” she said, holding up a piece of orange chicken with the chopsticks.

You pouted playfully, shaking your head. “Too full.”

Wanda raised an eyebrow. “Too full for food but not too full for kisses?”

You grinned up at her. “Kisses don’t take up belly space.”

She rolled her eyes affectionately, setting the food back down. “Fine, but you’re drinking some water at least.” She grabbed a bottle from the table, twisting the cap off before bringing it to your lips.

You took a few sips obediently, letting Wanda take care of you like she always did. Only this time, there was something different—something new and warm and exhilarating in the way she touched you, in the way she looked at you.

Once the water bottle was set aside, Wanda leaned back into the couch, pulling you right along with her. You tucked yourself under her arm, curling up against her side as she reached for the remote to turn the volume down on the TV.

“Sleepy, Malyshka?” she asked, her voice low and soothing.

You hummed, nodding against her. “Mmhm… but don’t wanna move.”

Wanda pressed a kiss to your temple. “Then don’t. We’ll stay right here.”

With the warmth of her embrace, the gentle rise and fall of her chest, and the steady beat of her heart against your cheek, you felt yourself slipping into sleep. Wanda held you like you were the most precious thing in the world

tw: mentions of neglect/abuse

carer with a traumatized age regressor they know they're helping to heal everytime they slip.

never received toys/were given very few toys as a kid? bubbas spoiling you in all the toys you want! if their kiddo is a little more shy and feeling guilty, they'll notice their little one eyeing a toy. "do you want it puppy? no need to feel bad, i just wanna give you everything you deserve"

went without food in public? carer will always order something for you, you never have to watch them eat while you have nothing. "oh honey I would never~ not only is that mean, but you gotta grow big and strong like me!"

went without food/snacks in private? your caregiver always makes sure they stock up on your favorite snacks and brands- no matter how specific they are. there's no shame in only eating a certain brand or flavor of chips. there's always groceries in the house and they're happy to cook for you, wanting to make sure you're safe AND fed. "are you hungy? I can get my sweetheart their favorite snack until the pastas done?"

had bad physical treatment? they would NEVER even THINK about laying a hand on you. if you misbehave or act up, they understand you're just in littlespace. like real kids, emotions can be hard and some moments arent good. sometimes kids like to test boundaries, there's nothing wrong with that. they won't let it slide and will issue lines, time outs, and stuff like early bedtime or shorter playtime- but nothing physical or mentally damaging. "angel I know you're all upset and shouting at bubba, but I need you to sit in the chair for 5 minutes. we don't yell."

missed out on a lot of childhood experiences? that's okay! your cg is soooo happy to integrate anything into their routine. whether it's storytime, going to the park, holiday celebrations, they're happy to accomodate! "oh you wanna have a bubba baby book read before your nap? of course little one!"

touch starved and wanting a lot of physical affection? they'll love on you SO much to try and make up for it! cuddles, pats, carries, boops, you got it! "awww does munchkin need a hug? cmere"

weren't treated the best emotionally? they understand how it can impact you. your carer always reminds you that you're not a burden, it wasn't your fault, and they truly do love you. they're not lying to you, they don't hate you, there's no maliciousness or ulterior motives- just pure love and care. "I know it was a lot, and I'm sorry you had to live through that angel- but I'm glad you're with me now. As long as I'm here, and as long as you'll let me- I won't let anyone treat you like that again. I pinky promise, my little love. Always, and forever."

Icl, this was very self indulgent to me- but I hope anyone who can sadly relate feels atleast a little bit of comfort and wholesomeness from this. I believe you. You're strong.

a reminder 🫧

☀️ your fictional cg loves you

☀️ your fictional cg cares about you so much

☀️ your fictional cg adores spending time with you

☀️ your fictional cg does not judge your regression at all

☀️ your fictional cg understands all your quirks and habits

☀️ your fictional cg feels honored to be able to take care of you

having a fictional cg is not weird or wrong, it is incredibly cool. you see a character that someone has created, and your thought is "i want that character to take care of me." what can be more beautiful than that?

[pubbiee]

having a fictional cg is so cute and fun, like oh you know this character? yeah, they’re actually my mom/dad/parent.. yeah, its like really cool and fun actually.. yeah they give me cuddles and play with toys and games with me.. yeah it’s pretty awesome

[dragon-queen21]

Forever loving the dynamic of a caregiver healing through caring for a little one. Hawks providing for a regressor what he never had as a kid. Trying to piece together some semblance of what a normal childhood should be and just enjoying getting to be open with someone else.

Also just Hawks taking care of baby space regressors is so perfect. Never thought of it before but you are 1000% right

♥️ - he genuinely believes that he’s the worst person to be a caregiver. he knows how to play the part after years of hero training within the commission, but he doesn’t see himself as a good person or a good role model so the idea of being someone’s caregiver, taking care of someone as vulnerable as a regressor, makes him really uncomfortable. he’ll still do it because he cares, but he needs the regressor to acknowledge the fact that he, in his eyes, should be at the bottom of their list.

♥️ - he has the equivalent of a diaper bag that he carries around. inside it is mostly snacks, first aid, and any regression gear he might need. it’s a basic duffle bag that he throws random stuff in and it’s not organized at all so he constantly has to dig into it to find anything. he uses his feathers to hold on to things while he searches, or while he’s dealing with a fussy regressor. it’s not uncommon to see random things floating around him while he’s multitasking with a baby.

♥️ - he really likes baby regressors because they’re easy to please. he is the grand master of peek-a-boo with his wings and his feathers are basically built in baby monitors so he never has that much trouble. older regressors make him feel three times as old as he is because trying to run around with them and keep them amused by playing his pro hero role is exhausting.

♥️ - he’ll never admit it but he gets really emotional seeing actual kids or regressors snuggle up to plush toys of him because it reminds him of when he was a kid doing the same thing to his endeavor doll. he plays it off and pretends like it’s not a big deal, teasing the regressor for being a fan, but it really means a lot to him.

♥️ - a lot of the motivation he has to take care of kids is because of his own history so he’s very firm about making sure his regressors are fed, watered, and have a soft nest to sleep in. despite his constant insistence to himself that he’s not meant for this kind of thing, he’s actually a pretty good momma bird lol

♥️ - he finds it hard to be gentle as keigo and not hawks. he was trained with handling civilians in the public and in traumatizing situations so he’s good at handling regressors in a crisis— it’s the only time he really feels steady because he knows what to do. when a regressor is just happily following him around or asking him to play, that’s where he gets stuck. he doesn’t know how to play or how to be anything other than hawks— but he does slowly start learning as he gets more and more comfortable caregiving.

mama ! sevika with a weepy , clingy ! regressor headcanons !!

requested by 🪶 anon ! the people long for more cg ! sevika .. i am here to ( try to ) provide. silly random pictures this time sorry they don't really match. big old dog is sevika and little cat is you if you even care... sorry these aren't my best i don't have a ton of thoughts this time <//3 arcane masterlist here , upcoming list here

sevika who was never big on physical touch , struggling at first to get used to you being clingy. it's not unpleasant for her but it's certainly something to get used to , she's a bit surprised that you'd choose her of all people to latch onto in this way.

she's also never been great at dealing with big emotions. at first her eyes will widen when your face begins to scrunch up , clearly seconds from crying. she might begin to panic though she tries to hide it. "hey , hey. what's wrong , kid ?" she works hard on her tone so she doesn't sound too gruff or out of her element. she'll put her hand on your shoulder a bit awkwardly , trying to comfort you physically.

she's not great at comforting people but she's a great listener and very perceptive. if she notices you acting differently she'll gently pull you aside. "what's the matter , kid ?" she'll ask straightforwardly in a soft tone. she hunches down to look you in the eye , resting a hand on your shoulder. if you don't answer she doesn't push but she needs you to know she cares. "well , i'm here if ya need me, hm ?" she'll say raising an eyebrow at you.

okay i doubt this book exists in zaun but i do not care... sevika doing kissing hands with you , her clingy little cub whenever she has to go off to work or on a more dangerous outing. you'll start to cry and she'll gently shush you , placing soft kisses on both sides of your hands. "now you do mine ," she instructs in her gravelly voice. you wipe your teary eyes. "what for ?" she's embarrassed as she explains it to you , you make her so soft it makes her sick. you giggle , eagerly kissing her hands before pressing yours to your cheeks.

when you get weepy , she'll pick you up , plopping you on her lap , bouncing you a bit. this immediately calms you down , sometimes all you need is your mama's touch.

mama bear sevika who is always holding your hand out in public. she tells everyone it's just because you want it , but it's just as much for her own comfort. she doesn't like her cub getting too far , especially when you tend to fuss easily. the idea of you getting lost terrifies her probably even more than it does you.

sometimes as a treat sevika will give you piggy back rides or shoulder rides. "you're killin' me kid," she'll joke when you ask her forty minutes later for just one more spin around the house. still she carries you around one more time , collapsing onto the couch with a dramatic sigh when she's had enough.

sevika setting up a card game for you and your stuffed animals when she has to leave you. "watch out for the bulldog , he's a cheater." she'll warn you playfully. "mamaaa , i don' want you to gooo ," you'll whine tearfully. "aww , buck up kiddo. i'll be back before round two," she'll say with a wink.

if you're having a bad day and are more weepy than usual sevika will cheer you up by attempting to draw for you. key word : attempting. she's not an artist by any stretch and you always laugh when she tries to draw your special stuffie , or jinx. she'll snort , trying not to laugh herself. "aw, c'mon , kid. you're just jealous you can't draw like i can."

mama sevika who loves to cuddle up with you in her lap and read to you. she does lots of silly voices and will quiz you on plot points. "one more chapter , pleeeease !!" she'll pout at you , booping your nose. "no time tonight , cub. you gotta get to sleep." you'll whine and fuss , but eventually she wins , arguing that if you're too sleepy tomorrow you'll be too grumpy to read. she'll tuck you and your stuffies in bed giving all of you forehead kisses before flicking off the light and turning in for the night as well.

🌼 Toriel Dreemurr Caregiver Moodboard 🌼

Recently watched a playthrough of this game and realized just how top tier of a caregiver this lovely lady is! Funny story, but before I discovered age regression, I always wished that I could live in the underground with Toriel and be taken care of by her and I had no idea why...little did I know, hehe. Hope you enjoy!

Also! If anybody knows who drew the middle image, please tell me! I can’t find the original artist anywhere qwq

Dino sandwiches would have been good, but I am glad you went with the stars.

Imagining Wanda making a whole space themed lunch before taking me to one of those trampoline places 💖

Do you think she would decorate one of her rooms with glow stars to make you feel safe when sleeping at her house?

-🖍

Okay this is going to go under HC for this series

-Wanda loves to make themed meals. Space, dinosaurs, princess, etc.

-She's bought so many different cutters for sandwiches and for fruits and veggies. She even has to cute little themed plastic toothpicks to put in the food she's made

-Wanda loves taking you places (once you're graduated they become more frequent and closer to home)

-Wanda had made the guest room into your little room. She sat you on her lap with her tablet and Amazon open, telling you to pick out whatever you wanted for your room. It was easy since you were in little space (tablet=shapes and colors!)

-One of the things you pick out are the little glow in the dark stars that Wanda comments "They're gonna look beautiful Malyshka." And you reply, "I always wanted them growing up but my mom said they'd ruin the paint on the walls." It's said softly while you continue scrolling and Wanda's heart breaks a bit.

-Wanda was already determined before but now it felt like more of a need to do everything you never got.

Being little when you do chores is the best because you can imagine what your CG will say when they see what a good job you did!!

Like yeah I could feel the satisfaction of taking care of something but that will never be as magical as hearing “Good job baby! I’m so proud of you!”💕🍼

☻︎In the context of age regression, a caregiver is someone who looks after a person who is regressed, or "little", while they are in "little space" . This can be a romantic partner , platonic friend and cg or an online caregiver .

☻︎Age regression is when someone reverts to a child-like state of mind, which can be a coping mechanism for mental health issues like anxiety, depression, or PTSD.

Ahhh these are the best! Puppy regressor Oboro was something I never knew I needed until now

💙 - oboro becomes a caregiver when a friend (I imagine aizawa) comes to him expressing concern over their own strange behaviors and sensitivities. oboro ends up doing some research and discovers what age regression is on his own, and he spends most of his evening figuring out the best way to pitch regression to his friend. he’s pretty excited over it, actually. he thinks it’s a fun and healthy way to express yourself! not to mention, it’s super adorable!

☁️ - he’s a puppy regressor! it’s very amusing because he is surrounded by cat people who have never been around a dog once in their lives and have no idea how to play with him. he’s pretty good at adapting, though, and is very willing to be a lap dog or just lounge around with his friends while they pet him and rub his tummy.

💙 - he honestly doesn’t treat anyone too differently between when they are and aren’t regressed. he treats children as people and is totally fine with having in-depth conversations with a baby that doesn’t know how to talk yet. and, with regressors, he keeps to that same mentality— which is aided by the fact that he often forgets when someone is regressed if there’s no physical indication like clothes or gear.

☁️ - he likes baking custom dog treats for himself but he’s too clumsy and excitable in puppy space so other people have to do it for him. unfortunately, his closest friends are both terrible in the kitchen— with aizawa being good at the practical side of cooking and terrible at the artistry of baking, and yamada being incapable of either. oboro usually ends up baking them himself when he’s in his regular headspace and then gives his friends strict instructions on when to give them to him (like an owner leaving behind pet instructions for a babysitter) because otherwise yamada will just feed all of them to him immediately.

💙 - he is DEEPLY upset about the realization that regressors don’t have baby carriers made for them. he wants nothing more than to strap one to his chest while he walks around and gets things done. he begs aizawa for weeks to make another capture weapon type contraption for him so oboro can use it to carry around a baby (again, probably aizawa himself lol) and he kept getting shot down. for now, until he can break down aizawa’s defenses on it, he just gives out piggy back rides and it’s his favorite thing ever.

☁️ - he really likes to swim when he’s regressed. his favorite outdoor activity is running and jumping into a pool— bonus points if there’s a ball or frisbee thrown in that he’s chasing after. he’s just very outdoorsy in general and really likes camping and running around (contrasting his friends completely), and that’s just doubled in puppy space. it’s such a problem though because he can never find puppy ears that can stay on his head (and look good) while he’s running around, and he definitely can’t find anything that’s water proof and fluffy. but he does have a more silicone based set and he likes them a lot because the tail is super waggable!

There comes a certain sadness in being a regressor without a caregiver, but also one who's severely traumatized and neglected. Finding comfort in dark moments by tumblr caregiver posts, feeling like someone cares. Not entirely understanding nostalgia and getting sad when seeing posts about favorite childhood snacks, movies, activities because you never grew up on them. Feeling awkward while playing and or having to relearn it because it wasn't really a thing. I wasn't allowed or given many toys at all. Seeing other regressors happily posting about their caregiver, feeling bittersweet. I'm glad they have them, they deserve happiness and support- but will I ever get that? I hope one day that's me too. Living through cartoons: wishing you had a friend group, family, or whatever like those characters. Happy endings. Imagining lots of scenarios or talking to character.ai cg characters, wanting it to be real so bad. Wanting a caregiver, yet being so scared about being a "difficult" regressor or needing "too much care and comfort." Wishing there was just someone to hold me and pat my head while tiny, playing with my hair and giving me their full attention. It would feel weird, really weird- I don't get attention much, but I'd hope that little me would be okay and happy with that. Bottom line, I hope for the fun days and happy ending of finding someone who will love me and accept my regression. If there's any regressors out there with c-PTSD, trauma, or really just anything that makes them fearful they won't ever get it- please keep trying. One day. I always tell myself that I'm sure I'll be so happy in the future, and look back on moments like these going "she was strong. she didnt know of the moonlight that would hug her everyday, yet she still pushed through- she made it"
