#fluffvember: a month of kisses

[skyloftian-nutcase]

After a month of Whump, it’s gonna be Fluff Time!!

Hello! This is Fluffvember, a month long event of pure fluff and comfort! This was originally an idea made by @/kjpurplepineapple, to follow a month of whump (whumptober) with a month of fluff, and I loved it so much I’ve just carried it on for the last two years. :) Figured I’d make some prompts so we could all have fun together.

RULES:

The prompts are listed in a numerical order, but they are not tied to any given day. Do whatever prompt on whatever day you like! If prompt #1 appeals to you but you don’t have time to get it done by November 1, do it any day of the month. :) You are also more than welcome to just stick to the order listed.

Writing/art can be pure unadulterated fluff, calm slice of life moments, easygoing reading… it can even be hurt/comfort! As long as the comfort heavily outweighs the hurt, all warm, fuzzy vibes are welcome. ❤️ The point of this event is to share nice vibes, both to our characters and each other. :)

You don’t have to tag me if you don’t want to, but it would be fun if you tag your writing/art with #fluffvember so I and others who want to indulge in comfort/fuzzy vibes can find it!

Without further ado, here are the prompts! Pick a theme/word prompts or a quote, or both!

Snow // “I’m stealing your blanket”

Blanket fort // “Come back to bed”

Nature walk // “I’m sorry, when did we step in paradise??”

Hot spring // “This hits the spot”

Apple picking // “Oh my gosh, you do not know how to cook”

Windy day // “Come closer, I can’t hear—ahhh too close, too close!”

Massage // “I didn’t know you could sing”

Bird watching // “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Homecoming // “I missed you”

Accommodating // “I’ve got you”

Teaching/learning // “It’s tradition”

Dog/cat/pet // “I can die happy now”

Friendly competition // “You’re going to love this”

Day Nineteen - Renji Abarai {2:34am}

A/N: If you want to be added to the fluffvember taglist send me an ask or a DM. The taglist will be open until November 27th, 2023

Word Count: 0.7k

TW: fluff, a little self consciousness, praise and affirmation

Fluffvember Masterlist

It had been a rough few days. Renji had sensed it. He had just returned from the human world, but he could tell that he had been away for far too long. Usually, he made sure that he was only gone for a week or so, but this time had been nearly a month.

It was weighing on you. Renji was your rock, the reason that you were able to get up every day and have a sense of security. When he was gone for a long time it made you feel like a part of you was missing. And that part of you always seemed like the best part of you.

When Renji walked through the front door after his latest training session with Byakuya he could already tell that you were having a rough one. His feet made their way for the bedroom quickly, a weird feeling in his gut telling him that it was where you would be. He was right, completely right.

You were curled up into the blankets, staring out the window as the sun began to set. It looked to him like you hadn’t really gotten out of bed since he had left the house that afternoon. He peeled his robes from his body and threw on a pair of sweatpants, climbing into bed beside you. His soft lips pressed to your temple as his strong arms wrapped around you. “Sweetheart…” Renji’s voice was soft and smooth, calming even as you listened intently. Just the sensation of him being there was already easing you. “Talk to me. Tell me what’s going on.”

You shook your head at him, trying to push it off. The last thing that you wanted to do was worry Renji. “It’s nothing, I’m fine. Please don’t worry. I just need some time to chill for a while.”

Renji’s body moved closer to yours, he knew you better than you knew yourself and he always wondered why you tried to hide anything from him. His crimson hair dangled into your face as he leaned over you. “You can’t lie to me. I’m not stupid. I know you better than you think that I do. You can’t hide this stuff. Though you do always put up such a good effort when you try it.”

You swallowed hard and turned onto your back, his arms still securely around you. “I just get scared when you’re gone for long periods of time. But it’s nothing to worry about. I’ll be okay. I just need to get used to it.” You reached up and cupped his face in your hands. “You’re one of the soul reapers appointed solely to the human world now, I should get used to you having to be gone more often.”

Renji pushed his lips out and captured yours with them, knowing that there was more to it than you were letting up but not wanting to push it any further. He knew when you were at your limit and respected your boundaries. Renji was just happy that you had opened up as much as you did for him.

Instead, he did his favorite thing and teased you. “Come on darling. I know what this is really about. You’re afraid that if I keep going to the human world to see Ichigo he might become my favorite person, right?” He chuckled and peppered your face in kisses. “I promise that the carrot top will never take your place. Not now, now ever. You’ll always be my favorite person.”

You nearly melted at his words, knowing that he had sensed the way you had needed that affirmation. You let out a small whimper as you wrapped your arms around him and pulled him toward you, leaning into his body as he settled in next to you. “Thank you, Renji. I- I didn’t realize just how much I really needed to hear that.”

His smile spread across his face, the sound that you made giving him a sense of comfort. It was the sound that you always gave him when you were feeling better, the one that he loved more than anything to hear. It was then that he knew that you would be okay, as long as he continued, and he had all night long to do so. If praise and affirmation were what you wanted, that’s exactly what Renji Abarai was going to give you.

Day Twenty-Nine - Ken "Draken" Ryuguji {11:00am}

A/N: The taglist for fluffvember is officially closed, but you can find all of the pieces that have already come out below with the masterlist link. Thank you all for sticking around for our fluff times this month. 🥰

Word Count: 0.7k

TW: jealousy, but everything else is just fluffy and lovey-dovey

Fluffvember Masterlist

The memories of his last girlfriend had been lingering in your head for far too long. You couldn't help it. The two of you spent so much time with his best friend that you always ran into her. And what made it worse was exactly how close Draken and Emma had still been.

You knew that you had nothing to worry about. You knew that Draken wasn't the type to ever do anything to hurt you, especially something like cheating. You knew that his relationship with Emma now was nothing but friendship, but that didn't make the sting any worse.

You had been out with them all day, hitting the town for a little shopping and some lunch and when you got home it had felt like a weight was lifted from your shoulders. You wouldn't lie, you loved spending time with the two of them, but there was something that always made you uneasy about it at the same time.

Draken could sense the weird tension in the air as you all got inside, his arms wrapping around your waist from behind as you both stood in the hallway. "Come on baby girl. Talk to me. You've been weird for a few hours now. What's going on?"

You shook your head, trying to ignore it. The last thing that you wanted to do was have to have the same talk that you had been having for months and months. Your fear that having to have it again would make him want to leave and not have anything to do with you ever again. "It's nothing, don't worry about it. I'm just tired, Kenny. I just need some rest."

Draken huffed, kissing the back of your head. "I know that's a lie. I know you better than you know yourself, don't forget about that, my love." That was when it hit him, something that he could never blame you for feeling, something that he would never ever hold against you. He was just happy that you felt comfortable enough to go out with them all and not even complain about it, especially given their history. "I know what's going on and I'm going to tell you again that I love you more than anything in the world."

You tried hard to hold back the smile that painted your face, not wanting to seem too giddy about it. "You don't have to do that, Kenny. I'm fine. It's not a big deal, I just need to get past it. That'll come in time."

His large hands grabbed your waist and spun you around to face him, giving you one of the widest grins that you had ever seen him wear. "Then let me help you speed that process up a little, yeah?" Draken kissed the tip of your nose and beamed at you, your cheeks warming at his touch. "I'll remind you again... tell you everything that I always do when this happens. And know that I mean every single word of it."

Draken placed a hand on the back of your head protectively and pulled you toward him, placing your forehead against his own. "I love you more than anyone and anything in this world and nothing will ever change that. You're the one reason that I get up and try to be the best person that I can be every single day. You're the reason that I work as hard as I do. So that I can give you everything that you want in this world."

You felt your eyes welling up as he praised you, barely able to contain your emotions as you listened to him continue. "You wanna know the most important part, sweetheart?" He watched you nod at him quickly as you listened even more intently, pushing his lips out to touch yours gently before answering. "You're my everything. You always will be. Until the day that I take my last breath everything that I do will be for you and for whatever family we bring into this world."

Fluffvember Day 9

Losing a bet

-

“Cal,” said Xoti, “what in Hel are you wearing?”

Cal greeted her girlfriend miserably, shuffling side to side in her frilly, pink dress. “I lost a bet with my sister.” She pulled out a chair at Xoti’s table, trying to ignore Edér and Pallegina staring at her from behind the counter of the coffee shop.

“Azucena?”

“Florinda. Az is less sadistic than this.” She could feel the bow beginning to slide in her cropped, black hair.

Xoti raised an eyebrow and took a long sip from her sugary drink. “What was the bet?”

“If I couldn’t manage to introduce her to my ‘secret partner’ by the end of the month, she got to pick out my outfit for my next date.” Cal buried her face in her hands. “I’m not trying to hide you from my family, except… I kind of am?” She looked back up at Xoti, struggling to find the words. “Not that you’re not great, my family is just… a lot? And I don’t want to subject you to all those expectations, too.” Cal started counting off on her fingers. “My mom wants me to find a husband, my dad doesn’t think I should be dating until I’ve finished grad school, Florinda doesn’t believe anyone would actually date me, and Azucena wants to plan our wedding.” She attempted to take a sip of coffee before remembering she had avoided ordering anything as to talk to the least people possible. “I shouldn’t care what they think, but…”

Xoti slowly reached across the table and loosened the bow from Cal’s hair. “But you still care enough about them to let your sister dress you up all silly.”

“Yeah, I guess.”

“Pull out your phone.” Xoti tied the bow in her own hair.

Cal did so. “Uh, sure?”

Xoti scooted around to the chair beside Cal and, grabbing Cal’s phone, took a selfie of the both of them. “There,” she handed the phone back to Cal. “Send that to your sister. Proof I exist.” She placed her hand over Cal’s. “I’ll meet your family whenever you’re ready, but I also don’t want to have to hide.”

Xoti kissed Cal on the nose then stood up. “Now, come on. You look so uncomfortable. We’re going shopping!”

Fluffvember Prompt #21 Bite

Characters: Silva Cataracta, Ricmorn Cataracta, and Hien Rijin

Rating: General

Notes: The scene takes place sometime between Shadowbringers 5.0 and Patch 5.3! There is no mention of anything from MSQ/Story, so no spoilers here! Words contained in [brackets] are in another language, in this case, it's Doman.

Content Warnings/Additional Tags: Polyamory Relationship (V Relationship), M/F/M Relationship, Playful Banter/Teasing, Mildly Suggestive Themes, Food, Alcohol/Drinking, Domestic Fluff.

It was rare Silva, Ricmorn, and Hien found time to spend together as of late — no matter how brief or long it was. The two Warriors of Light constantly traveled back and forth from the Source to the First to check on their fellow Scions. When they returned, they ran around Eorzea and the Far East, providing aid where possible. There seemed to be little time for rest, for either of them to catch their breath for a moment. And while they were busy with their duties, the young lord remained at the Doman Enclave. Rarely left his home as he drowned in an endless sea of paperwork and back-to-back meetings with his advisors and ambassadors from other nations.

And when he wasn’t chained to his desk by invisible shackles, he was at the palace in Ala Mhigo. Stuck in more meetings with the rest of the Alliance leaders about the affairs of the world and the happenings within the Garlean Empire.

All of it was so tiring after a while.

So when the chance came up, they took it. Seized it without a second thought. Time was forever fleeting, after all.

And there were no discussions about their duties unless absolutely necessary.

Thankfully, today’s schedule wasn’t packed to the brim for any of them. Silva and Ricmorn were free after checking on their selling stalls in Ul’dah and Kugane. While Hien only had one more meeting — one that was quick, hopefully. He couldn’t see it lasting longer than a bell or two, considering it was going over some last minute changes to a few trade agreements before signing off on them.

But before the meeting, he decided to treat them to a late lunch with one of their favorite cooks in the Enclave. It was also a great excuse to convince them, or at least Silva, to spend the night.

(As if she would need much convincing to stay and warm his bed while stealing hungry kisses and teasing touches. He knew the answer would be yes if she or both of them were free.)

“I can’t believe the stars aligned for us for once!” Silva sighed, the sound turning into a laugh. “I feel like it’s been ages since we’ve done this. It’s a nice change of pace — a welcoming one.” She flashed Hien a smile when she felt him reach under the table to squeeze one of her hands with his, sparks of levin dancing along her skin.

Oh, how she missed this — missed him. She knew he longed for time together just as much. There was no doubt in her mind.

“It has been a while,” the young lord agreed. And he was so glad to see them after nearly a month of only speaking through letters and short linkpearl calls.

“I blame the weird time bullshit between here and the First,” Ricmorn rumbled after sipping his chilled sake. “I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it, no matter how often we venture to the First. All I know is that it's bizarre and hurts my brain the more I think about it.”

Hien couldn’t help but laugh at his friend. Even Silva was giggling.

“You’re rather grumpy today, my dear,” she teased, leaning over to kiss his cheek. He relaxed at the affectionate gesture, but only slightly. The tension in his shoulders was still there. “And here I thought I would be the grumpy one out of the two of us. I know we’ve been up since sunrise, but you’re much more of a morning person than I am.”

“Waking up at sunrise and “early” are two very different things, Silv.”

“Perhaps a bite of some really good food will cheer your husband up, my lady!”

Unzan crossed over to their side of their somewhat private seating, holding two trays filled with fresh, hot food. The mood instantly lifted. Ricmorn seemed to perk up at the sight of food as he scrambled for his chopsticks. Silva and Hien didn’t think he would be patient and let their favorite cook lay out all their food before digging in, but the white mage held himself back.

Once the trays were empty, though, he quickly took a serving off each of the plates of dumplings, steamed buns, and meat skewers the three always shared between them to his plate.

“Or a nap after he stuffs his face,” Silva snorted, earning herself a small growl from her husband. She fought the urge to roll her eyes, knowing it was better to ignore it. "Thank you so much, Unzan

Which was easy to do the moment Unzan set a plate of her favorite chicken and vegetable gyoza in front of her, a happy trill rumbling in her throat. Hien must have ordered an extra serving just for her so she wouldn’t be tempted to steal any from Ricmorn’s plate when he wasn’t looking.

“Naps do wonders for those of us who rise with the sun,” the Roegadyn joked, grinning from ear to ear. Silva and Hien laughed, murmuring their agreement to the statement. Ricmorn would have agreed along with them if it wasn’t for the fact his mouth was full of food. “We’ve missed having the two of you around here, my lady. Even our young lord here seemed to be a tad mopey some days,” he added, speaking in hushed tones so the other patrons couldn’t hear. “The Enclave is always brighter and more lively when you and Ricmorn are here.”

She raised an eyebrow at the news, turning her head to see Hien blushing. “Did he now?” Trying to picture Hien in such a state was both impossible and a little funny.

The young lord sighed. “It’s nothing for you to worry about,” he promised, lowering his voice. There was no need to explain further — his beloved knew and understood. He gave her hand one last tender squeeze when her gaze softened before letting it go. “You’re here now, and that’s what matters, [wildflower.]”

And one day, their duties wouldn’t keep them separated for long periods of time.

november eleventh  ∙ day 6

prompt: A breathy demand: “Kiss me” - and what the other person does to respond.

warnings/themes: panic attack? (mention of inability to breathe), fem!reader (use of wife once)

[back to fluffvember masterlist?]

You watched in bated breath, the distant yells around you were muffled now, not even registering in your brain as you watched the big screen "It seems like the villains have all been caught and are being restrained but there are still a number of heroes on the premises-" You willed your eyes to look away from the huge screen on the building, crouching where you stood instead. You don't even realise you're repeating the same mantra aloud as you were in your head, the crushing feeling of desperation making it difficult to breathe. You stay in that position for what feels like hours, your knees burning. Please let him be okay. You feel hands on your shoulders, warm hands coaxing you out of your tense position. You lift your head catching sight of red eyes before throwing your arms around him. "I'm right here, I'm fine babe" Kirishima rubs your back, shushing you gently. Your shoulders heave in relief as you pull back holding his face in your hands and pressing his forehead to yours. You scan your eyes over his body quickly, a couple of fresh bandages wrapped around his abdomen but other than that, fine. Fine. You sigh in relief again knees buckling slightly. He smiles at you gently taking your arm whilst pulling you up. You can feel the dull ache in your legs but the promise of home numbs it a little. Your hand finds itself in his immediately as you lead him home.

It was almost as if nothing had happened, he pressed a kiss on your cheek before going to the bedroom to shed his hero gear off and shower; you going to the kitchen to warm up leftovers for him to eat. It was later when it hit you. You sat on the sofa, hearing him put his dish away when it did. You could've lost him. He joined you then, settling on the sofa before pulling you onto his lap with ease. You scold him half heartedly telling him to be wary of his injuries, but wrap your arms around his neck all the same. "Listen babe, there was... There was a point then that I was a little scared that I... wouldn't make it back to you" you felt his grip on you tighten as you slowly move your hand to the back of his head. "And it put everything into perspective." His posture relaxed as he pulled away to look at you. His eyes were shiny from a couple of unshed tears as he cupped your face gently. Chuckling, he carried on "You know what I thought? I thought that if I was to die I couldn't even say something cheesy like 'tell my wife I love her' 'cause your ring has been buried in my sock drawer for the past 6 months." Your heart skipped a beat as you process his words. The tears come naturally, silently travelling down your face as you giggle wetly. "Out of all places, your sock drawer Eijirou? Really?" your voice is barely an amused whisper as you move his hair out of his face affectionately. "I know you hate my odd socks babe" He chuckles, as he pulls out the velvet box. "I'd get down on one knee for you and everything baby-" "Yes, it's a yes" His eyes flit up to yours, searching for any hesitance at all. When he finds nothing but pure adoration, the tears begin to fall. He fumbles a bit taking your hand in his as he slips the ring on with ease.  You press your forehead against his, eyes closed and smile serene even as the tears travel down your face. "Kiss me" The words are exhaled in a single breath and his lips are on yours immediately. The pads of his thumbs caress your cheeks, lightly brushing away the stray tears as your lips move against each others perfectly. You place your hand on his cheek, the feeling of the cool metal band on your finger making him grin into the kiss. You pull away a little breathless, resting your forehead against his. "I love you, Kiri" "I love you more, angel"

aquarium date

masterlist | 1k prompt masterlist | baby series

prompt: aquarium date for @starglitterz​ fluffvember event :)

pairings: childe x gn!reader

warnings: nothing

To anyone but you, Childe was a charismatic man. He was wealthy, attractive and strong. He probably had hundreds of foreign affairs to deal with and drove a Ferrari.

To you, Childe was a simple man. His favorite genre of music was Korean pop, he would eat anything you put in front of him, and liked to feed the birds that perched outside of your bedroom window. And he loved sealife.

He wanted to become a marine biologist but his parents persuaded him elsewhere. But his love for aquatic life never faltered so you and Childe had dates at the local aquarium at least once a month.

It was sweltering hot outside when you and Childe decided to spend the day at the aquarium. “That feels so nice,” Childe sighed as a blast of cold air hit you as you walked through the doors. He left your side briefly to check in at the front desk before returning with two wristbands to add to your overflowing collection at home.

“Do you think the fish experience summer like we do?” You asked, finding Childe’s hand and lacing your fingers together.

“I’m sure they do,” Childe teased. “They buy ice cream and spend the day at the beach collecting seashells. They even light off fireworks every weekend.”

You rolled your eyes, “That’s not what I meant.”

Childe leads the way through the different exhibits. His favorite exhibit was the touch tanks and he spends a long chunk of time petting the turtles and feeling the sting rays. His mouth spewed tons of ocean facts and you had become so adjusted to them, you didn’t pay attention.

“How are turtles part of the aquarium? They don’t swim in the ocean,” You said as a box turtle climbed over your flattened palm.

“You ask too many questions.” Childe looped an arm around your waist and pulled you into his side, “Come on.”

Your favorite part of the aquarium were the sharks. Childe teased you over this, calling you a little boy, but you couldn’t help it. In the ocean, sharks were mysterious and scary but in here, they were so beautiful.

Your boyfriend watched your eyes light up when you entered the cylindrical tunnel of sharks. A hammerhead shark swam above you and your eyes chased it until it was out of view. Your hands pressed against the side of the glass like a little kid as a bigger shark swam by.

There were smaller sharks rummaging along the sandy bottom of the tank and you smiled at them. Maybe they felt more secure hidden in the sand - you would too.

You liked the aquarium for a different reason than your boyfriend. Childe liked to observe the fish and learn about them but you just liked to enjoy them. You didn’t need to understand the biology behind the animals.

“I want to be a shark here.”

Childe laughed, “What a perfect life of captivity you would have.”

You put your hands on your hips and pouted, “Free housing, free food and an endless amount of friends. It sounds like a dream to me.” Childe hummed and smiled at you again, leaning down to kiss the top of your head.

“Come on, I want to find the clownfish.”

Everytime you came to the aquarium, Childe couldn’t leave without finding the clownfish. His hand wrapped around yours again and he pulled you down the connected halls to where the tropical fish were kept.

Childe’s eyes darted from tank to tank looking for the little orange fish. When he spotted it, he raced towards it. A single finger laid against the glass as he grinned at the fish.

“There’s nemo!” He beamed. You stood back and watched Childe like he had done with you in the shark tank. Your boyfriend wasn’t such the hot shot everyone thought he was - he just really liked fish. Childe looked over his shoulder, “Come look!”

With a happy sigh, you joined your boyfriend against the glass. The clownfish swam in circles around its home and Childe talked absentmindedly about how all clownfish are born male and how they’re omnivores.

You leaned against the glass and smiled. Let them think what they want. Your clownfish-loving boyfriend was all yours and that’s all that mattered.

bakugou x reader

summary: bakugou wants to be the little spoon but refuses to ask word count: 839 a/n: day one! this is going to be a interesting month, i hope i can keep up haha

The door opened letting you know that Bakugou was home from work. You stood in the kitchen making dinner, it was almost done now.

“Hey, how was work?” You called out to him. You received an annoyed grunt in return which gave you all the information you needed on how his day went. The sound of the shower turning on could be heard and you started plating dinner knowing he would be out soon.

Shortly Bakugou entered the kitchen sitting down at the table looking clean but still in a bad mood. You set down the food before pressing a kiss on his cheek and sitting down.

“It was pretty chilly out today.” You said. Bakugou grunted in reply. You knew if he wanted to talk about his day he would. “I forgot my coat, I was freezing all day.”

“Sounds about right.” He replied taking another bite of food. You smiled at his reply, glad he was at least talking now.

“Not gonna lie, I considered stealing someone's jacket out of their office when they weren’t looking.” You joked.

“You should have.” He said. “That would have been funny.”

“Then I went to the grocery store after work and they were out of parsley. How do you run out of parsley?” You complained. “So I had to use the dried parsley. It’s not as good but what can you do.”

Bakugou listened and commented on your conversation but didn’t bring anything up himself throughout dinner.

“Do you want to watch something in the living room or go lay down in bed?” You questioned.

“Bed.” He said already heading to the bedroom.

“Okay.” You said following. Laying down on the bed you watched as he started getting ready for the night. You scrolled through your phone waiting for him to get into bed. You had been looking forward to cuddling all day, not that it was an unusual thing for you.

When Bakugou laid down facing away from you your heart sank a bit. Maybe his day was worse than you originally imagined. You glanced over at him, you didn’t want to push anything so you would leave him alone.

A few minutes passed as you looked through your phone when you felt Bakugou move over. You looked over to see his back pressed to the side of you. You raised an eyebrow at that. Maybe you were wrong in thinking he didn’t want to cuddle but at the same time, you didn’t want to be presumptuous.

Maybe he wanted to feel you next to him but not cuddle. He could just ask you if you really wanted to.

More time passed and you heard Bakugou grunt as he pressed his back into your side more.

“I’m sorry, did you need something?” You asked.

“Get off your phone, idiot.” He grumbled.

“Get off my phone and do what?” You questioned. At this point, you were understanding what he was getting at but you didn’t want to give in right away, you could have some fun first.

“You know what.” He said still not looking over.

“I’m sorry I don’t.” You said putting your phone on your bedside table.

Bakugou said something but you couldn’t understand it.

“What was that?”

“I said…” He said louder but his next words were barely a mumble. “Hold me.”

“Oh!” You said playfully.

Turning on your side you snuggled up behind him, wrapping your arms around his waist before tangling your legs with his. Bakugou’s hands covered yours over his stomach.

“You know you could have just asked.” You said against his neck with a smirk.

“I did.” He complained.

“Well I mean like before you laid down. You could have just asked right away.” You said. “I know you very well ‘suki but sometimes I don’t know if you want space or not.”

“I know.” He said. “I’ll work on it.”

“Do you want to talk about your day?” You asked.

“A little bit.” He said. “It was long and annoying and we lost some people.”

“I’m sorry, baby.” You said, squeezing his hands. “I know it’s a part of the job but I’m sure it never gets any easier.”

“It doesn’t.” He said.

“It doesn’t mean it’s your fault. It doesn’t reflect on who you are as a hero.” You said, thumb brushing across the back of his hand.

“Thank you.” He said. “I just want to lay here with you until we fall asleep.”

“Sounds perfect to me.” You said pressing a kiss against the back of his neck.

The two of you settled in, getting even more comfortable and relaxing under the blankets.

“You know there’s no shame in being the little spoon.” You teased. “In fact I really like it. Although I’m sure my arms are less impressive than yours.”

“Shut up.” He said you laughed. “Your arms are just fine.”

Bakugou squeezed your hands, snuggling more into you. Even someone like Bakugou liked to be the little spoon some days even if he didn’t like to admit it.

『 aquarium date where you finally admit your love to each other 』

pairing: kuroo tetsurou x gn!reader genre: fluff wc: 1541 fluffvember masterlist

a/n: yay day one of fluffvember is finally here!! good job jojo on guessing correctly ahaha anyway i hope you guys enjoy this sorry its not proofread ahhh but i hope its cute and fluffy enough to start out fluffvember :D

Nerves always seemed to wreck through your body whenever you were around Kuroo. Sure the two of you have been seeing each other for a few months, having been on a handful of dates when your busy schedules allowed it, and becoming official only a week ago, but that never seemed to calm you down.

His mere presence made your heart flutter and your mind race. The stupid grin on your face never fading when he was with you because he made you happy, the happiest you’ve ever been.  

It wasn’t until the night he asked you to be his officially, after he had dropped you back off at your place, did you realize that you were in love. In love with Kuroo Tetsurou, the guy in your class that you had become acquainted with when he had asked to borrow the first part of your notes after showing up ten minutes late and settling into the empty seat beside you. The same guy who was obnoxiously loud when saying goodbye to his friends before entering the lecture hall, yet the one who had been able to catch your eye the first week of classes.

You loved him and as your mind drifted to sleep that night, you hoped that one day he’d feel the same way.

Kuroo knew at that moment, when the two of you first spoke to each other in hushed whispers in your shared lecture, that he wanted to get to know you better. And so he did.

His unofficial assigned seat was so longer the exact middle seat in row five after that day, but the seat next to you, the cutie who had caught his eye on the first day of class.

He liked to thank fate for letting him be late that one day and thanked it again for causing one of the only available seats left in the room to be the one by your side, giving him the perfect opportunity to talk to you finally.

The night he finally made the two of you official, he knew he was in love but was too scared to tell you those three words, hoping that one day he’d gather the courage to tell you and that you’d hopefully feel the same way.

The local aquarium was reasonably crowded for a Saturday as the two of you entered the building after scanning your tickets at the entryway. Kuroo’s hand instantly moving to entwine with yours, mumbling something about not wanting to lose you in the crowd full of adults and their wandering children.

Squeezing his hand slightly before flashing a smile at him, you quickly pull him over to the large directory board to plan out where you wanted to go first.

His eyes scan over your face as your own eyes check the map of the aquarium, eyebrows slightly furrowed together as you mumbled to yourself about where you wanted to go first.

“Let’s go see the otters first! No wait, let’s go to the tide pool and touch the animals there! Or we can-”

“Woah woah woah slow your roll there,” he interrupts you, a grin growing on his face. “We’ve got all day to get to see everything. Don’t think too hard; you’re going to fry your cute little brain.”

“Rude,” you mumble, a pout on your lips as you glance up at him. “If my brain is little, then what about yours? I did better on that last exam than you.”

He lets out a loud laugh that definitely catches people’s attention when you poke your tongue out at him like a child, reaching up with his free hand to poke at your cheek before retorting back. “You did better by one point! And I swear that one point was biased. Our TA definitely has the hots for you!”

“He does not!”

“Does too! Oh, Y/N! You’re so wonderful and amazing. How has your day been? Let me completely ignore the totally smoking hot dude holding your hand when you walk into class together!” His voice changing to mimic that of the teacher assistant in your lecture, causing you to burst out into laughter at his antics.

“Oh, shut up! He doesn’t even sound like that! He’s just nice, unlike you! Besides, I’ve only got the hots for one person, and that person is you.” Winking at him teasingly before turning around and pulling on his hand, leading him to the closest exhibit. “Now come on, let’s go explore this aquarium!”

Kuroo enjoyed observing the ways your eyes light up as the two of you walked around the aquarium hand in hand. Your attention solely on the aquatic animals and not him, not that he was complaining.

He enjoyed the sparkle of pure joy and the wide smile that tugged on your lips. The giddiness and excitement in your voice as you pointed something out in the tank with a show of your hands made his fondness for you grow.

Today is the day, he thinks, the day I tell Y/N that I love them.

He’s not sure what finally gives him the courage to tell you the three words. Maybe it’s the way you smile so brightly at him while your excited or the way he grows a little envious thinking of you smiling that way for someone else. All he knows is that he wants to tell you how he truly feels.

And as the two of you approach the aquarium tunnel, what will soon be his favorite place on Earth, he knows that right now is the perfect timing to tell you. Underneath the dark blue lights of the tanks as fish and other aquatic creatures swim above your heads and all around you. He observes you as your dazzling eyes look up to watch a whale pay no mind and glide over the two of you.

Maybe it was fate helping him out again, but Kuroo was thankful that the tunnel was empty, just the two of you there standing hand in hand.

“Hey, did you know I can speak whale?” He asks, breaking the comfortable silence that surrounds you.

“We’re in public! If you’re going to do what I’m thinking of, I will leave your ass here,” you point out, free hand on your hip as you raise your eyebrows at him, waiting for his next move.

“You wouldn’t.” Flashing you a cheeky smile before looking away and towards the whale that just swam by. “hELlOOooOOO tHErE mR WHaLE.”

“You’re so embarrassing. I’m glad no one else is in here; otherwise, they’d get horrible secondhand embarrassment.”

Even with your complaints, Kuroo quickly notices that your smile is the biggest it’s been all day as you try to stifle your laughter. Whether it’s laughing with him or at him, he doesn’t really care because the sound of your giggles is like music to his ears, and he prides himself in being the reason behind it.

As the two of you calm down from your laughing fit, you notice the whale making its way back over to the two of you, a loud noise coming from the large mammal. Your eyes widening as you look over at Kuroo; his own eyes are wide with disbelief.

“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think you actually talked to it,” you whisper as you watch the whale swim over the top of your heads once again.

And as it passes and swims away, the both of you are sent into another fit of laughter.

“I really did that! I told you I spoke whale!”

“You’re such a dork! But I guess you can actually speak whale,” you giggle, taking a moment to finally catch your breath.

“What did I tell you? I’m amazing!” He boasts proudly, letting go of your hand for the first time that day to instead wrap his arms around you from behind, his chin nestling itself onto your shoulder as the two of you watch the whale swim away.

“Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night,” you tease back. Quickly regretting your words as he keeps you trapped in his arms and prods his fingers into your sides, laughing as you struggle to try and squirm out of his grasp.

And as you wiggle around in his arms to avoid anymore poking fingers, he can’t help to think that the overwhelming joy he feels whenever he’s around you is love. You’re the one for him, the one he loves with his whole heart. He knows this with everything in him.

“I love you.”

His voice is so soft, barely even a whisper in your ear. You’re sure you imagined it, but when you turn around in his arms and look into his eyes, you know you didn’t imagine hearing the three words you’ve been wanting to tell him.

You’re breathless as you stare into his eyes, eyes filled to the brim with love for you as your own show him that you felt the same way. Leaning up to press a delicate kiss to his lips, the soft form of intimacy, revealing the overwhelming love you shared for each other while you embraced each other under the sea.

“I love you more.”

⤷ Day 8: Tamaki Amajiki + “can we stay like this forever?”

Synopsis: in which you and Tamaki realize that being on top of the world is better spent together

Word Count: 907

Fluffvember Masterlist

Tamaki didn’t know why he was at this party.

Neijire and Mirio had lugged him there to “celebrate the last couple months at UA” but all he could think about was why the party people’s heads weren’t turning into potatoes. God he hated the stench of sweaty bodies mixed in with the unfamiliar faces of students. If he was being honest, the only person that would make this experience bearable was you.

His eyes begin to subconsciously search for you and when he finally finds your pretty self, his demeanor automatically lights up. Your eyes were so radiant as you spoke to the people around you, effortlessly being the life of the party. How could anyone not be in love with you? At least that’s what Tamaki tells himself to excuse his uncontainable feelings.

The thing is, everybody at UA knows that you and Tamaki are madly in love with each other and will inevitably end up with one another but for some odd reason, neither of you are willing to build up the courage to confess.

He was so lost in his daze that he failed to notice the swarm of people barging into his personal space. It was suffocating. He’s trying to catch his breath as the extra bodies start to rub against him. He’s clenching his eyes shut and praying for anything or anyone to save him from this hellhole when he feels a gentle arm pull him out from the chaos.

When he opens his eyes again, he’s now faced with a literal angel. Your beautiful smile paired with the ceiling light shining down on you like a halo as he looked up at you was nothing short of angelic.

He stands up and brushes off the germs of strangers before clearing his throat. You offer him a genuine smile. “Wanna get out of here?” you ask, nodding towards the front door.

He follows you out the door and into your car. The two of you don’t even discuss the destination and just begin to drive. There was a comfortable silence between you both because of how many times you guys have saved each other from the madness.

The destination ended up being the top of a hill, but it wasn’t just any hill. This was the one Tamaki took you to in your first year at UA when you had nobody. And you dashed out the driver’s seat to admire the sunset that was a palette of oranges and pinks. To be honest, Tamaki didn’t love you because you were the life of any party, he loved you because you were just as quiet and meek as him, but you didn’t let that get in the way of being strong. You were strong and that’s everything Tamaki has ever wanted to be.

You turn back to face him, eyes alight as if you’ve never seen a sunset before in your life. Your childlike innocence was intoxicating to him.

The two of you were perched on the hood of the car to admire the view and even with the wind causing your hair to fly around like a maniac, he couldn’t help but let his jaw drop at your natural beauty.

“Can we stay like this forever?” Tamaki lets out in the softest of whispers.

He almost tries to take it back, but seeing your bewildered expression and the feeling of boldness was enough for him to hold it out and see what would happen next.

You’re swinging your legs back and forth as your eyes glance back at the setting sun, “you know Tamaki, you’re the only one who could say that and make me think a million thoughts at once,” you chuckle a bit, “but you’re also the only one I would want to spend forever with.”

When your eyes meet his once again, his thoughts flash back to his first year and a timid you trying to navigate the gigantic UA all alone. He remembers the eyes that were always downcast, but now, they were big and curious, he could now clearly see the colour of your eyes.

He remembers how you also struggled with honing your quirk and how surprised he was to find you practicing in the woods behind the school. He had introduced himself and offered up his own favourite practice spot: the hill. Now the two of you were back at the top of the same hill three years later, about to graduate from a prestigious school.

Funny enough, the two still managed to end up in the same spot you had started… almost like it was meant to be.

His fingers reach over to yours resting on the car. The sun was almost fully set now and our Suneater was feeling bolder than ever. In one swift movement, he cups the side of your face in his hand and leans in, starting with butterfly kisses on your eyelids because you remind him of one. You started out small, ultimately growing into a majestic butterfly, his favourite. Then, he lowers his lips onto yours, not pressing too hard in the case that you might flinch or break away, but you don’t.

You’re bolder and more fiery. You push back with more force in hopes of displaying the passion you had held onto for so long. The sun was completely gone now, but you hoped the embers in your hearts would be enough to light your way through the darkness.

Morning Murmurs (Kuroo x Reader)

Y’all I love soft morning fics where the characters wake up next to the person they love.  That’s my jam. 🥰 -Giz

Word Count:  1,017

Fluffvember masterlist

You wake up with a pillow in your face, and you’re not surprised.  Your husband’s strange sleeping habit from childhood has mellowed since you’d started sharing a bed, but when he’s particularly tired or stressed, he unconsciously falls back into smashing his head between two pillows.

You shift onto your back so you can breathe freely and blink at the ceiling while your mind finishes waking up.  The sun is just starting to peek into the room under the curtains, so it’s still early.  At least you don’t have to worry about getting up for work or appointments.  After weeks of a nearly nonstop schedule, both of you can enjoy a day off together.

You turn your head to look at the man sleeping beside you.  You’d bet your breakfast that he hasn’t slept well.  He’s kicked the covers half off, leaving the thin, soft t-shirt that he uses as pajamas as the only covering for his broad shoulders.  One of his arms is hooked under your pillow, bunching the end into a little hill against the side of his head.  His other arm presses his pillow against his ear as though he’s trying to shut out the world.

You usually tease him about his bedhead, but this morning, it makes you a little sad.  You can see the tension in his shoulders and an unconscious desire to escape his worries in the way his head burrows between the pillows.  A new season of professional volleyball has just started, which means Kuroo has been busy with promotional events.  He loves his job, but these last weeks have been tiring, and he has a number of additional meetings lined up in the next month that occupy his thoughts even when he should be relaxing at home.

You roll back onto your side and prop yourself up on your elbow so you can get a better look at him.  You love Kuroo’s passion and dedication.  You just wish it wouldn’t take such a toll on him sometimes.  You gently reach toward him and begin tracing the muscles on his back.  Your touch is light because you don’t want to wake him.  He needs what rest he can get.  But you also can’t resist touching him, wanting to ease the tension in his shoulders and relishing the closeness of your bed.  You’ve barely been married a year, and it’s still new enough to make your heart flutter.

Your hand brushes over the planes of his muscles.  You feel the subtle movement of his every breath, the expand and contract that reassures you of his vitality.  His body is familiar and comforting.  You trace the channel of his spine up to his neck, and he shifts slightly but doesn’t wake.  Gently, you straighten the hair at the nape of his neck.  Despite its unruliness, his hair is smooth between your fingers.  You softly slide your hand through it a few times before returning  your touch to his shoulders.

Kuroo shifts again, this time turning his head towards you.  He barely opens an eye, and you feel a little guilty for pulling him out of his much-needed sleep.  He blinks slowly and exhales into the pillow before releasing his hold on it, laying his head down like a normal person and letting his half-consciousness pull a sleepy smile from his lips.

“Good morning,” you whisper, continuing to rub his shoulders gently.  “Sorry, I was trying not to wake you.”

He hums, and you can feel the light vibration beneath your fingers.  Then he turns onto his side to face you, taking your hand in his.  You lay on your side and scoot closer to him, once again relishing the proximity.

“It’s much nicer to wake up this way than with my alarm at 5am.”  Kuroo smiles as he kisses your fingers, and you can’t help mirroring the expression.

“Still, you need sleep.  You were restless last night.”

“Did I wake you?” he asks, eyebrows pulling slightly together.  You vaguely remember a few moments of consciousness, but it could very well have been your own worries pulling you awake.

“No,” you murmur, tracing his cheekbone and jawline, “but I can tell.”

He grunts and reaches for you.  You scoot closer, and a content silence falls between you as he gently traces your sides and you softly brush his hair out of his face.  You study each other and settle into the joy of togetherness, that quiet element of your relationship that sustains you both.  You don’t often have the chance to bask in his presence like this, and you hope your husband can feel your overflowing love in your touch.

“What are you thinking about?” he asks quietly, an amused smile on his lips.

“You,” you admit, “and how lucky I am to love and be loved by you.”

“That’s pretty deep for this early in the morning,” he teases, but he brings your hand to his lips and kisses your wedding ring.  The look in his eyes is soft and sincere, and you know he feels the same.

“Well what are you thinking about?” you hum, intertwining your fingers.

“Pancakes.”

You can’t help the laugh that escapes your lips.  He might be teasing you, but he could be hungry enough to be thinking about breakfast already.

“You shouldn’t let your stomach think for you, you know.”

“But it’s too early to think with my brain,” he groans.  You giggle as he pulls you into a hug, and you can feel his silent chuckles as you rest your cheek on his chest.  Your hands return to rubbing his back soothingly, and you swear you can feel him relax around you.

After a few minutes of contentment, you lean your head back to look into his eyes.

“Shall we get started on those pancakes?”

Kuroo hums and drops a kiss onto the tip of your nose.  You wrinkle it in mock disgust, but you’re smiling.

“Let’s wait a few more minutes,” he murmurs.

“Sounds good to me.”  You snuggle back into his embrace, content to rest in this moment as long as you can.

✒︎ deserving

most people values who, how, and when they'd get their first kiss on the lips. for you, of course it was the same.

you never had anyone else before. as an only child, you pressured yourself into being the best student and daughter one could have, always landing on the top of the class lists or your batch. you were proud of how you gained success however, it didn't mean you had no sacrifices in order for those to happen.

it's not that no one showed interest in you, no. you tried dating a couple of times but as five first dates came by and they never came back, it didn't became a priority to you anymore.

the reason why second dates never happened to you were because it's either the guy was just overwhelmed at your standing at school or they felt like you couldn't focus on them just as much as you would to your education.

what's wrong with having a realistic mindset? you often questioned yourself. yet as your gaze drifts towards your friends or peers that eventually have partners of their own, of course you felt discouraged too.

after your fifth try, you promised yourself that you should not engage into anything romantic anymore until high school ends. after all, it would only take a few months before you all graduate and go to college. maybe by then, you'll get to find the person whom truly understands you and your priorities,

what you didn't know, is that he was approaching you already.

"are you perhaps (y/n) (l/n)?" his voice was not catchy, nor does he look any special at all. yet as you turned around to face the person who called your name, there was a tug by the pit of your stomach that told you something. good or bad, that you didn't know.

you became wary of koushi sugawara, the boy who called your attention to ask you to give your best friend, kiyoko, applicants of what seems to be from the volleyball club of your school, karasuno. it was not because you did not trust the boy or that you had a bad hunch about him. you couldn't point it out but, he was someone that you found sort of "memorable".

"we aren't really properly introduced, are we?" his face came in front of you again, a result of trying to visit kiyoko during one of the volleyball practices that she had to attend on. apparently, despite having months apart from your first meeting, sugawara seems to have never forgotten your merely-a-minute encounter.

"i'm koushi sugawara, it's nice to meet you!" he smiles, as bright as when someone eats something they like or when you were pleased of something you've accomplished or done. if you were to judge, he's like the icing on top of a cupcake, for some reason.

"i know." you say without thinking, pushing the thoughts of sugawara away from your mind as you proceeded to talk with kiyoko, blatantly ignoring the look that passed by the others' and sugawara's with your action.

"sugawara-san has been rejected!"

"no way! this is so funny!"

"but who are they? are they shimizu-san's friend?"

you could hear the other volleyball team members' whisper and mutter around you and you wanted to get out as soon as possible. but before you could even decide to follow your instincts, sugawara came. again.

"i'm afraid i didn't catch you name. is it.. (y/n)-san?" he inquires. and you could tell just by the look on his face and the tone on his voice that he was making up for the embarrassment he was caught on earlier.

"i never told you my name." you rebutted, smiling to kiyoko with a wave then.

"i need to go. see you tomorrow?" you say only to her, but as you turn around to walk away, sugawara's voice came singing behind you.

"it's nice to meet you, (y/n)-san! see you tomorrow!"

you bit your lower lip out of frustration, a low growl emitting inside of you as you turn your way outside of the gymnasium, saying goodbye to the hall as a way of promising to yourself never to step foot on its ground ever again.

ironically, you had to anyway.

"it's you again! hey there, (y/n)-san!" sugawara beams to your face once again when you barely had gotten inside of the gymnasium by the next day. apparently as a council member, you had to always monitor each of the clubs for their statuses, also as a way of helping each club adviser. unfortunately for you, you were assigned for that task and that you should do it every week—which meant you were going to see koushi sugawara once a week, the unexpected encounters by the halls doesn't even count.

you felt like the world had put a curse on you all of a sudden.

"why do you always show up in front of me, sugawara-san." you say all of a sudden, turning to face the boy with an annoyed look written all over your face, not even saying the words in a form of question as it should be.

he didn't back out, however, for a ghost of an amused smile passes by his lips before it suddenly curves into his usual one.

"you must be mistaken, (y/n)-san, i didn't mean to offend you. but i do admit you're cute when you're riled up."

the word "cute" echoed in your mind and you felt a rush of blood move up to your face, causing you to avert your eyes away and avoid eye contact. "c-cute? i-i'm not-i'm not cute." you stuttered, your feet begging you to run away right there and then.

"you are!" sugawara rebuts, "i was actually hoping i could take you out for a coffee, or in a meal, if you don't like coffee."

this time, you whip your gaze back, eyes wide open at his sudden offer. never in that moment have you expected the conversation to turn like that and it seems like sugawara had proven you wrong once again. however, instead of feeling annoyed by it, you felt a different kind of emotion that came out unexpectedly as well.

"y-yeah, i mean-sure. uh-when?"

"tomorrow morning. are you free?" he decides immediately, to which you could compare to your indecisiveness that made you agree to him eventually.

"don't worry, i'll make sure to be deserving of that first kiss!"

this caused you to stop on track and looked at the running form of sugawara incredulously, a smirk plastered on his normal but memorable face.

"kiyoko told you?!" you couldn't help but exclaim.

"not telling!" but you were only responded by such a vague answer with a laugh before he was gone. yet despite all of this, a smile slowly makes it way to your lips, curving up on the edges as a hopeful sighs escapes from your system, a flicker of positivity erupting inside.

it may just be wishful thinking, but you sure do hope he's the one too.

Fluffvember Prompt #16 Soothe

Characters: Silva Cataracta and Hien Rijin (Though Ricmorn is not in this scene, he is mentioned!)

Rating: General

Notes: This scene takes place in the later half of post-Stormblood MSQ about a month or so after Silva and Hien enter a relationship with each other, so things are still new and she's still a little shy around him with certain things. If you're curious about Silva's scars and how she got them, I've written about them a few times! You can find the links to them here: Scars and Sunshine and Second Chances! Please be mindful of the tags in them, especially the first one as it does have NSFW elements in the third chapter. Words contained in [brackets] are in another language, in this case, it's Doman.

Content Warnings/Additional Tags: Polyamory Relationship (V Relationship), M/F/M Relationship, Playful Banter/Teasing, Mild Angst (very, very mild), Disscuions of Old Wounds/Scars/Bodily Harm, Domestic Fluff.

The sudden knock on Hien’s door made him look up from the massive pile of paperwork, trade agreements, and wordy letters on his desk. Curious… A glance at the chronometer on the south wall told him it was still early afternoon — a time of day when none of his advisors usually bothered him unless needed. And while he still had one more meeting to attend, it didn’t start for another two bells.

Which meant there could only be one of a few select people waiting for him behind that door.

“Come in!” he called out, setting the document he was reading off to the side.

Hien couldn’t help the grin lighting up his face when he saw Silva open the door just enough to poke her head through.

“I was hoping it would be you,” he teased.

She let out a light laugh, shaking her head. “Now’s not a bad time, is it?” Vibrant sea-green eyes wandered to his desk, noticing the vast display of important-looking papers scattered about his desk. “I… I have a favor to ask you, but if you’re busy, I can find someone else to help me and—” 

He immediately rose to his feet at the question. “It’s never a bad time for you, [wildflower.] Please come in.”

His eyes and brain could use a brief break before the words started blurring together.

Silva opened the door far enough to squeeze through before shutting it. And for added measure, locked it behind her. When she turned around again, the young lord was already halfway across the room to meet her. She closed the distance with a few quick steps. They murmured sweet “hello’s” to one another and exchanged slow, lingering kisses as they embraced.

It wasn’t until Hien ran his hand up her back that she let out a small hiss of discomfort — and reminded the Raen why she was here in the first place.

“Oh— My apologies, Silva,” Hien said, quickly removing his hand. “I didn’t know you were injured or—”

She quickly dismissed his apology, a nervous laugh bubbling from her chest. “Not an injury,” she told him, wanting to ease his concern. “At least not a new one.”

His brow furrowed as he took in her words, a little confused. “Not a new—” And then understanding dawned on him. He carefully smoothed his hand over her upper back and shoulders again, mindful of how much pressure he applied. “Your scars are bothering you today.”

It wasn’t long ago he saw them for the first time in their full glory, without clothes hiding them. (He was used to seeing them in glimpses as they peeked out from behind her gear since he’d known her.) He stumbled upon the moment by chance one late afternoon. Silva was a little hesitant about him seeing them, not that he blamed her, but was willing to let him tend to them as she and Ricmorn told him the story behind them. A story of bravery and great sacrifice for someone she loved — for someone she wanted to protect.

The tale made him admire her even more. Made him love and respect more than he ever thought possible.

Silva leaned into his touch as she nodded, sighing. The ache was still there — always would be on her bad days — but it was easier to ignore in favor of her other lover’s gentle caresses. “They are,” she answered, meeting his gaze. Clarity shimmered in his peridot eyes when she held up the small jar of soothing balm she used for them. “Ricmorn is busy elsewhere for the moment, and Miki has her hands full with her apothecary today. And there’s no way in any of the seven hells I would go to my uncle about this and—”

“I would be more than happy to tend to them again, [wildflower,]” he promised, taking the jar from her. The small gasp of surprise escaping her told him she wasn’t expecting him to offer his help with something so personal. It was his turn to put her at ease.“Whenever you need it — I’m here,” he told her, brushing his fingers along the flat edge of an ivory horn. “Always.”

“O-oh,” she whispered, wetting her lips. When Hien's expression softened, she shifted her gaze elsewhere, her long tail twitching. “I— Okay.”

His kind words did the trick.

“Come,” he murmured, pressing his lips to the small patch of ivory scales decorating the middle of her brow. The sound of her happy hum was sweet music to his ears. “Let’s get you someplace more comfortable. You’ll feel better once I rub some of the balm into your skin.”

Before Hien could pull away, he felt Silva wrap one of her arms around his neck to hold him in place. He was about to ask if something was wrong until she carefully pressed one of her horns to his cheek, gently nuzzling him. His heart melted at the affectionate gesture.

“Thank you, [my heart,]” she breathed beside his ear before turning to press a kiss to his cheek. When she pulled away from him and reached for his free hand, lacing their fingers together, he was grinning from ear to ear.

“Of course.”
