Do you have good recommendations for AgeRe stories? Something really cute and fluffy? (I'm a lonely regressor and I love reading stories about really sweet caregivers.)

I do!! I adore reading agere fics, so here are some recs! I hope you enjoy!!! 💖

Gen:

Decontamination by SailorChibi - Marvel - Baby!Tony and CG!Steve - After a battle, Steve takes care of his baby - (This one is a Classification!AU/Littles are Known!AU... like, one of the very first ones. Very good and fluffy. If you ever read thorough their fics, (tagged NSAP bc agere straight up did not exist as a community yet) you'll start spotting alot of things that other people were/are inspired from.)

Picnic by SailorChibi - Marvel - Baby!Tony, CG!Steve, Middle!Bucky, Toddler!Clint, CG!Coulson, Kiddo!Scott, CG!Sam W., Kiddo!Peter P., CG!Wade, Kid!Wanda, and CG!Vision - All the Avengers have a nice picnic - (classification!au, but a different verse than the previous fic jsyk. this one is suuuuper fluffy and cute and fun <3)

Less than Five by SailorChibi - Daniel Craig's James Bond - Little!Q and CG!Bond - Q regresses smaller than usual; his daddy makes sure he's taken care of - (classification!AU, first of a series. first two fics are pretty fluffy, but the third has some angst, which makes the fluff even sweeter, in my opinion)

coffee makers and bumblebees by orchidsncrake - Daredevil - Little!Matt and CG!Foggy - Matt becomes overstimulated and after an altercation with the office's coffee maker, Foggy is there to make everything better

Small surprises by undergroundrice - Daredevil - Little!Matt and CG!Foggy - Foggy stumbles onto Matt regressing, and together they figure it out

A Second Shot by mylittlestories - MCU - Little!Natasha, Little!Clint, and CG!Coulson - Natasha didn't have much of a childhood. When she sees that having a second one is possible, she wants; Coulson and Clint are happy to make her family :) - (This one is unfinished, but what's there is just so nice I have to include it!!)

Give your Dreams the Wings to Fly by Honey_Dewey - FNAF Movie - Little!Matt and CG!Ness - Mike gets sick at work, but his boyfriend is there to make everything okay

the road to hope and adventures into the unknown (target) by romansprince - Barbie (2023) - Little!Ken, then CG!Barbie and CG!Gloria - Ken has become human... except he's never had a childhood. Sometimes he feels Fuzzy, but that's something he thinks he can keep secret. As he turns out, he can't, but it works out anyway - (Two separate fics that take place in the same universe/series. The first one/set-up is a little angsty, but the second is more fluffy)

Movie Night by mcschnuggles - Heathers - Little!JD and CG!Veronica - JD unexpectedly drops into headspace during a movie night with the rest of the teenagers; Veronica helps him through it - (Modern!AU, Everyone Lives!AU, this one is kinda angsty, but like, it's canon appropriate, lol - also!!! make sure that you check out the author's other works!!!!! lots of agere fics for a large variety of fandoms!!)

Toffee Ticking Time Bomb by GayCheerios - Star Wars - Little!Anakin and CG!Obi-Wan - Obi-Wan has to find his padawan's stuffie before the inevitable temper tantrum ensues - (classification!AU, part of a very nice and good series that, if you enjoy this fic, you should also check out)

Baby's First Bath by CyberToddler - Beetlejuice: The Musical - Toddler!Beetlejuice and CG!Maitlands - The Maitlands give Beetlejuice his very first bath - ( 👉👈 I wrote this one 😖)

Evolution by Cgetbrmj - The Last of Us (TV) - Little!Ellie and CG!Joel - Series that follows each episode of the show, and explores how these characters stumble upon age regression as a coping mechanism and how much they both realize they enjoy it. - (Slowburn agere, as it explores how it develops naturally between both characters. This one DOES contain some angst as it relates to the show, but overall is as fluffy as its setting allows)

Reader-Inserts:

The Doctor's Office by agerefandom (tazia101) - Twilight - Little!Reader and CG!Carlisle - Reader goes to their first check-up in their new town and unexpectedly regresses; thankfully, their doctor is more than understanding - (I can not emphasize enough how much I love this one. Hits all the right buttons, I'm so happy/thankful I found it before I had to establish care w/ a new doctor, it's just- so good)

Sugary Sweet by agerefandom (tazia101) - Twilight - Baby!Reader and CG!Alice and Jasper - A comfy, happy morning with your vampire caregivers - (be sure to check out the writer for more fandoms!! lots of agere fics, including gen and reader!insert!)

little life at the mansion by myworldoffanfiction - X-Men - Little!Reader and CG!X-Men (the main gang lol) - First chapter is a busy yet comfy morning while living at Xavier's Mansion. Second chapter is a fun Summer evening - (this one is sooooo sweet 😭)

Play Pretend by Vinnies_Comfort_Corner - Scream (1996) - Kiddo!Reader, Flip!Stu, and CG!Billy - You and Stu play pretend while waiting for Billy to come home - (if you enjoy this one, make sure you check out their other regression fics!!! there's even one with a petreg puppy!reader!! and other horror media!!)

Red Stained Fingers by CyberToddler - Scream (1996) - Little!Reader, CG!Stu, and CG!Billy - Unorthodox sensory play with diy-ed fake blood, lol - (I also wrote this one 😅 it's sugary sweet, I promise, lol)

[wannaeatramyeon]

I love your writing, it's so unique and easy to read like it scratches my brain, sorry if that doesn't make sense. Anyway, could you write about Jake meeting a friend from his childhood? Like maybe after workers when he's trying to get big deal back together he runs into them and is like "omg I'm so happy to see you, please don't get close to me you'll get hurt" and he kind of loves them romantically but he also is afraid bc he doesn't want them to get hurt.

👉👈 lowkey I want this for all of big deal but if that's too much to ask don't worry about it

I AM BACK ON THE JAKE TRAIN! Goo who? Vin what? No sorry bb I'm just joking. Thank you for being so kind! I try to write things how my brain parses stuff (don't we all). And again, sorry for the delay 🙇🏻‍♀️ just gone with Jake cos all of Big Deal 🤯 sorry!!

Jake Kim x Reader: Youth

G/N. Pining ish. Idk.

You notice the scars before anything else.

Glancing at them, curious how the sweet boy from your youth ended up as a gang leader even if rumours of his father spread like wildfire through your neighbourhood.

Perhaps the rumours were true and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Yet when he calls your name-

The same tone from years gone by. Voice holding the same tenderness, warmth, now deep and rich.

Instead of fear, you feel nostalgia and a smile tugging at your lips.

You wonder how you didn't notice his gaze first. Looking at you with familiar affection that couldn't even be eroded by time.

.

.

Jake notices you. Eyes drawn to you, like he used to do.

When he would dance around his feelings, tiptoe around his emotions. Holding you at arm's length despite desperately wanting to pull you into them.

The folly of youth.

If only he knew what was to come, he would have taken that chance. Spent his days in the swirls of puppy love instead of rushing into adulthood pondering about what-ifs.

Have something fond to hold on to; to daydream about rather than letting the ship pass him by.

Although.

If by chance, you did say yes. If the relationship bloomed and love blossomed. He doubts he could have ever left you.

His life could have taken a different trajectory altogether.

.

.

Jake keeps his distance, even if he's the one to approach you.

Notices the way your eyes linger on the scars. Realises the gulf between you even if you are finally within reach.

Understands the way your lives have parted and ran parallel, even if he wishes for them to intersect again.

To capture some of the magic of his childhood. The innocence. Someone that knew him before Big Deal became all he was.

He knows it would be a mistake to bring you down with him. To dull your light and cloak you with his darkness.

Yet when you ask for his number, hand resting on his arm-

He can't help but pull out his phone and exchange his details with you.

Hopes that maybe. Just maybe that it would be the other way round.

That some of your brilliance, your radiance is contagious. That instead of dragging you down, you would be able to lift him up.

Tips for someone who wants to start their writing blog? 👉👈

Helllllllllllo darling! (⁠｡⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠｡⁠)⁠ﾉ~

-- First of all:

Sometimes you're going to write a lot and sometimes you won't even want to open your drafts because you'll be tired from it. And that's ok, always know your pace or else you're going overwhelm yourself wanting to write everything. Also don't ever delete your drafts, yes, even the ones you don't want to write anymore. Ideas and concepts can be reused later!

-- Grammar!

I'm not yet fluent in english so sometimes I write with the dictionary open in another tab lol, thing is this is very important. To better your grammar you can practice writing drabble and prompts, you don't even have to post it if you don't like it. I also recommend to read a lot as reading works to inspire you and to analyse how different every writer writes. Like, I love writing dialogues so sometimes I have a hard time writing descriptions bcs I can't focus on them. When this happens I just skip it and put a () for when I'm proofreading to edit it.

Though commiting little errors are common and totally fine, darling! You're allowed to commit them. Don't ever "omg, there's so many typos on my fics people must hate them and me" or smth, is normal to make typos actually :)

-- Rules

It's your blog, darling. You have the final say on every matter. Don't ever feel pressured to write something just because people ask you to. Though be prepared because sometimes people won't read it so you have to be patient. Put the rules on somewhere visible, change their color, PUT THEM ON ALL CAPS!

Be very specific. Like, what fandoms do you write for? How many characters can people send in? What are you comfortable writing and what are you willing to try? Is there something that you won't tolerate being sent in your inbox? Things like that!

-- Ramble, share, talk

Let us hear what you have to say. Your ideas, even if they seem silly to you, are very interesting to the audience. Also let your followers to connect and interact with you <- I say this as if I wasn't so shy and awkard that eveytime I want to share sometimes I'm hit with ah well nobody will care anyway. This is the devil speaking, do not the same I do, darling!

-- Aesthetic and tags

I like this part hehe. As I said, this is your blog darling. It's almost like your second home. And people like their home being pretty and comfy. So try making your blog look like that! Choose an aesthetic, a character or something that speaks to you. And don't be afraid to change.

Also about tags. Everyone has its own. Tag everything: fics, characters, fandoms! They're so important, darling, you can search for them on your blog later and a tagged fic has a higher chance of showing up in the main feed. Besides it'll be easier for people to navigate through your blog (also make a masterlist, yes, even if it's a hassle to maintain it).

-- Don't be afraid

Writing is hard, is true. Motivation can come and go, sometimes time won't allign it with your want to write, y'know just mundane things. If you have writer block then don't force yourself to write, you won't like it what you read when you're done and if you feel afraid to write something new then do it afraid. Do it afraid even if it's bad, do it afraid because otherwise you won't do it. Though if is something you don't know about then please search about it and talk with other people.

-- Have fun

The whole purpose of writing is to have fun. Do not anyone spoil your fun, babe. Have fun, laugh and cry writing, make friends along the way. If a story is loved by its writer then certainly everyone will feel it and love it just as much as love! :)

Hope this all helps. If you still have any questions then ask away and I'II try my best answering it!

[varlaisvea]

hi im asking despite my embarrassment. so theres this one off npc. uhmm 👉👈 her name is nerise venim, she's a professional alchemist but in her quest she gets mistaken for a witch, you'll see what i mean if you look her up. she's kind of. haughty? looks down her nose at ppl. but ngl im a complete lesbian for her and idk if theres much if any fics on her so im asking for a Little indulgence bc i rly like your prose 🥺

(This is re: my offer to write fic about ESO NPCs. Offer’s still good, though…)

IT HAS BEEN A MONTH AND A HALF SINCE YOU SENT THIS. I AM SO SORRY! There’s been Stuff, and also, truthfully, I’ve gotten really stuck on the sexy part of this. Smut is already harder for me than I’d like, and on top of it, I think where I ended up going with this is different from what you wanted.

THAT SAID THOUGH, I still wanted to do something for you :) I redid this quest and I too am very gay for Nerise Venim! So, I decided not to let my writer’s cockblock (gn) stop me from at least posting the first part of the story. Hopefully it’s a nice tale on its own? No promises, but I’ll keep fighting with the sexy part 🫡 And THANK YOU so much for your kind words!!

Words: 1.9k Rating: Mature (allusions to sex and sex toys, mention of alcoholism) Characters: Dunmer Vestige, Mirri Elendis, Nerise Venim

——

With Vivec City in our sights now, I feel a strange anxiety in my center. I stop to take in the view of the city, the sea, and Baar Dau. “I can’t stop thinking about that Nerise Venim.”

“Oh, she was incredible, wasn’t she?” Mirri says. “Killing goblins felt even better knowing I was doing it for her. Seht knows I don’t take orders well, but somehow I found myself wishing she’d push me around a little.” Mirri meets my eyes and with a guilty little grin. “I… hope that’s what you meant.”

I sigh. “It is. She was intimidating, in that hello muthsera sort of way.” 

Mirri nods, and we stare at the Vivec City skyline for several long silent moments.

“Heh, I should have let one of those goblins knick me, so I could be injured enough for one of her upscale unguents.”

Mirri stares at me. “Sometimes I forget that you grew up Velothi.” She chuckles. “And in Stormhold.”

“What does that mean?” We start walking again. 

“Dunmer controlled Stormhold for much of your life, it’s true, but it was never a Dunmeri city. If you’d come of age in Vivec, or Balmora, or Mournhold, or even in your Ashlander clan, you’d have some idea about expensive upscale unguents to be sold to discerning clients.” 

“I guess I don’t know what exactly an unguent is.”

“Ah,” Mirri says, nodding. “Well, if I didn’t have experience with upscale unguents, I wouldn’t know either, but: one common synonym is lubricant.”

“Ah.”

The rest of our walk to Vivec City is mostly spent in comfortable silence, and we have a beautiful view of the Temple and the sun setting over the Inner Sea. To avoid some of the construction, we take the long way, past the silt strider station and the traders on the outskirts of town.

We’re walking through the crafting plaza when Mirri stops. “I bet I know where she’s selling her wares.”

“Ha, are you in the market?”

Mirri raises her eyebrows at me. “Irrelevant,” she says with a grin. “I meant… if you’re still thinking about her, maybe you could… see if she has any plans this evening.” She hesitates, then adds, “or… we could.” Mirri meets my eyes with slight unease. We love each other, of course, as one comes to love anyone who has fought by their side through Oblivion and back. We both feel pretty strongly that we work best as friends and adventuring partners, but we share sleeping arrangements regularly, and we’re adventurers, so of course, just like with several of my other regular traveling companions, we relieve one another’s tensions from time to time, or watch each other relieve tensions. Sometimes one of us helps the other pick up an evening companion who catches our eye… but we’ve never done it together.

I look down at my boots.

“Ah, just a thought!” Mirri stammers. “I’m sorry, friend, if that was over the line—”

“Mirri,” I don’t want to laugh at her, but I’m laughing at her. “I didn’t even say anything! As soon as you said that, I wondered why we’d never done it before.”

Mirri laughs, trying to sound calm but obviously relieved. “I thought the same thing. I’ve never had a threesome.”

“Really?” I do not hide my shock very well, and Mirri looks adorably sheepish. “Well, now we have to try.”

“I agree!” She grins and lays her hand on my hip. “And now that we’ve been thinking of this for as long as we have, I believe even if she declines, you and I will have a lovely evening, no?”

I lay a hand on her forearm and lean my head against hers for a moment. “Obviously.” We start walking toward the bridge. 

Mirri does know exactly where to find Nerise Venim, and it turns out, I know the place too—on our way in, Mirri and I wonder aloud, for the second time today, why we haven’t been broadening our exploration of common interests. The shop is run by Telvanni-trained mycoturges who specialize in a craft that’s been honed over many generations: strong, flexible, and very pleasurably-shaped fungi, preserved with Altmeri preservation enchantments for easy cleaning. The proprietor claims Vekh himself shops here, and while I’m not sure I believe that, this particular shop does have the best selection in Vivec City, and a wide variety of accessories.

Nerise has a small booth just inside the shop. She’s not serving anyone right now, but evidently things can get busy here—there’s a sign a short distance in front of the booth that says to ensure privacy for all, please wait behind this sign. Even out in the wilds, Nerise was dressed in noble finery and carried herself like a Grandmaster, and here in the shop, she looks regal; someone the rich and powerful trust with their secrets. If she claimed Vekh himself preferred her upscale unguents, I might believe her.

She smiles slyly as we approach. “Came looking for me, did you?” 

I nod. “Couldn’t stop thinking about you.” She raises an eyebrow, and I return her smile, hopefully with an air of casual ease. “We had to know what happened with Stromgruf.” 

“Ha!” Nerise claps her hands together. “Well he’s got pants now, at least, and—thank the Mercymother—I don’t have to deal with him anymore.” She leans across the counter conspiratorially. “If you can believe it, Stromgruf actually thanked me; even apologized for calling me a witch and endangering my livelihood! And that sword I bought him? He practically begged to trade it back for some vials of Potion Of Transform Into Guar For A Day Or So. Said he hadn’t thought once about getting blackout drunk while he was a guar.” She sighs. “Ayem knows the bottle is a far stricter mistress than some angry witch.”

Mirri, now standing outside of Nerise’s view, fans herself dramatically at that. I continue on bravely as if unaffected. “Please; you’re more than some angry witch,” I say. “You turned a Nord into a guar and he begged for more—it takes quite an alchemist to cook up something so potent and pleasurable.”

Nerise meets my eyes with a haughty smirk. “You’re damned right.” She pauses, then smiles serenely. “Now, can I interest you in something… potent and pleasurable?”

“That’s exactly what we came here to find,” I say, somehow managing not to stammer. “Do you have any plans for this evening?”

“Ha!” Nerise looks genuinely charmed. “My only plans are to find an inn room and count my coin. Hmph, look at me; do you think I slum it with adventurers?” She smiles, stern but amused, and meets my eyes to let me know her question was not rhetorical.

I laugh nervously. “Ah—heh. Ah, you—“

Mirri—as she often does—sees me faltering, and steps in. “Come now, sera, I think classifying my friend as merely an adventurer would bury the lede somewhat, don’t you?” Nerise crosses her arms and smiles with eyebrows raised, and Mirri meets her eyes and matches her pose. “We both know you’re worldly enough to have immediately recognized one of Tamriel’s great heroes when you met us earlier today,” Mirri says. “But, message received—it is a bit uncouth of us to make overtures while you’re at work. Apologies; we’ll leave you to your unguents.”

Mirri nods toward the door for us to leave, but Nerise says, “people make overtures all the time in my line of work—occasionally, I even find it intriguing rather than utterly laughable.” She smirks and meets Mirri’s eyes, then mine, and then there is a long, heavy silence. 

“You’re not laughing,” I point out.

“I try not to make a habit of it,” Nerise says, her expression hardening. 

Mirri and I exchange a glance—something about the way Nerise said that seems to have given us both pause.

Mirri drops her smirk. “It’s been rough for you of late, hasn’t it?” she says, now sincere and cautious. “Not just all the business with Stromgruf, but… things were hard well before the goblin situation, I’d wager.” Nerise presses her lips together and maintains her stare, but says nothing. “I come from a big family,” Mirri says, “I know what it looks like when someone has a lot of people depending on them, a lot of weight on their shoulders.” 

Nerise looks away and swallows hard. “Nothing I can’t handle,” she says.

“But wouldn’t it be good to set it down for a while?” I ask. Nerise turns to me, gaze stony and head held high, waiting for me to say more. “Don’t you get sick of cleaning up all the messes, keeping an eye on every variable, holding everything together for everyone around you?“ 

She stares at me, clenching her jaw. 

I meet her gaze, smiling, and ask, “don’t you ever wish someone else could take control; let you rest your mind, let yourself feel?”

Nerise stares at me for a long moment, jaw clenched and eyes glossy. She nods once. Mirri nudges me from behind. All three of us know what that nod meant.

I smile. “Wouldn’t it be good for someone to take care of you, for once, Nerise?”

She meets my eyes with something approaching vulnerability, then crosses her arms and looks away. “I doubt you’re up to the task.” 

Mirri lays her hand on the counter. “You doubt we’re up to the task?” 

Nerise stares at Mirri, then at me. After a long pause, she says, “I’ve got a lot to do here.” She continues staring back and forth at Mirri and me, as if she’s trying to say something without saying it.

“… I own the penthouse at St. Delyn’s Waistworks,” I say finally. 

Nerise is quiet for a few moments. “I’ll see how I feel later,” she says, her tone giving nothing away. 

“Fair enough,” says Mirri, suddenly chipper. “For now, we’ll stick to business.” Not far away from Nerise’s booth is a shelf of merchandise, and Mirri points to one of the mushrooms; long and thick with subtle ridges at the top. “I’ve got one like this back at the penthouse. What would you use to help it go down nice and easy?”

Nerise rolls her eyes and sighs, but says, “I usually recommend—“

“Bring it with you,” Mirri says, and turns to walk away, grabbing my arm to bring me along.

Nerise once again rolls her eyes and sighs, obviously having expected Mirri to say something like that. But she says, “I should tell you, I don’t go down without a fight. I’m rarely nice and never easy.”

Mirri grins. “Of course. See you soon.”

When we get outside, we’re giggling like kids. “That was awesome!” I say. “I didn’t know what to do—I just followed your lead! Very sexy, I have to say.” I affectionately bump Mirri with my hip.

“Thank you, sera,” Mirri says, bowing her head. “I may be inexperienced with threesomes, but let’s just say I have some idea of how to get people like Nerise Venim to unravel.”

“I don’t know,” I say. “She seemed a bit aloof about it all. You really think she’ll come over?”

“Oh, I suspect she will,” Mirri says coolly. “People like her need to hold onto the air of dominance right up until they’re on their backs—and from there it’s short work to get them on their knees.”

Special Chapter Part 1 : A rainy day

Author's note: Holy shit, I'm finally back with something!! Never expected it to get this lonf but I got a bit carried away with writing some cute scenes 👉👈 It also kinda helped me warm up and clear my head about where I want this story to go. Also got too busy with gushing about how cute Vi is in this story a a a. Hopefully you'll enjoy this and dont be too confused if some sentences sound weird when Vi's speaking bc she's still trying to master the language (i hope i didnt write it too weird aa) i also havent proofread it properly bc its midnight and im tired 🥲

Summary: You and Vi had been living together for some months now. Things were going pretty well between the two of you with some feelings blossoming here and there. Going through a lazy rainy day, the both of you were spending it normally like any other day. That is until you get a great idea. Oh, you genius.

Words: 7437 Words

Warnings: none except maybe some swear words?? And definitely some awkwardness with some cute moments on top of it.

Masterlist

Vi was sitting on your couch while watching TV. Legs on the table and her top slightly pulled up, showing her abs while scratching her stomach. An "Oof" came out of her mouth as she patted her stomach.

"Pff, you okay?" you chuckled turning to look over the counter of your kitchen, a plate and a towel in your hand.

She peeked over her shoulder to take a glance at you before shifting her eyes back onto the TV screen.

"Just feeling - uhhh- full after that much food" she curtly said, eyebrows slightly furrowing as she clicked her tounge.

"Was it good?" you asked her as you put a plate into one of your cupboards.

"Yeah yeah, was good" she absentmindedly threw up a thumbs up, not looking back this time.

It had become a habit of you both to use a thumbs up or down for good or bad and was one of the first things you had agreed to use to talk to each other.

She was randomly switching through the channels, searching for something interesting that she could watch and wouldn't have to struggle too much with deciphering what they were saying.

It had been some months since she had landed into this world. The beginning was pretty rocky and stressful.

It had taken a while until the both of you had gotten used to each other. She herself had to tone down a lot of her fighting instincts and her brashness. Pretty much her tendency to get impatient and all that.

She wasn't one to get violent against someone, who couldn't fight back and didn't mean any harm but she was the type who would definitely get loud when they're riled up.

Unfortunately was it you who had gotten yelled at by her during an argument and frankly, you were whaling after that due to bad experiences associated with yelling.

So she basically had to get her shit together to make this work.

Well, it was just really frustrating to be somewhere you didn't know shit about and she quickly learned that she had to let herself trust you.

Nowadays, there hasnt been a single moment where she hadn't been thankful towards you since you were literally turning everything upside down to make her feel comfortable.

You gave her a roof, new clothes, three days a meal, would take the time to teach her your language bit by bit and she'd teach you some of hers in exchange.

Not to mention that she had started to stare at you more often with a strange tingly feeling welling up in her chest a month ago.

Whenever she'd catch herself doing that, she would distract herself with her phone or go outside for a jog.

Or just look anywhere else but you.

Yes, you even bought her own phone and it was mentally challenging to explain to her how the wonders of a phone worked with hand gestures and roughly thrown in words buuut it somehow worked.

And today the two of you were living through a lazy rainy day, completely comfortable with each other.

Vi's thumb continued to press the button as she mindlessly browsed through the channels.

Putting the last dish into the cupboard, you heard a small "wow" escape from her lips.

Raising an eyebrow, you layed the towel next to the sink and made your way towards the couch.

You stood behind her as you put your hands onto the couch, leaning slightly forward and moving your eyes onto the screen.

It was a documentary about the mountain animals.

Glancing down at Vi, you could see an entranced expression on her face.

Mouth parted slightly open and her eyes resembling those of your little brother whenever he would watch his favorite Ninja from Ninjago do something really cool.

Your heart was literally squeezing so hard from how cute she just looked.

You tap her shoulder, making her lift her head back to look up at you.

Fuck, she looks even cuter from this angle A A A A

Giving her a soft smile, you ask "What are you watching?" while pointing with your index finger at the TV.

Blushing faintly by your infectious smile, she gave you a loopsided one back and moved her eyes back onto the screen.

"Uhmm it's about... mountains aaaaand animals. Yeah, mountains and animals." She repeated twice to make sure that she had said it correctly.

Beaming down at her and nearly choking with pride, you lean down to put your arms around her neck.

"Hey, you got it right!! See, it's getting better and better!!" you told her, giving her a short but tight squeeze before releasing her from your grip and jump over the couch to take a seat next to her.

Vi could feel her heart wanting to jump out as you had squeezed her.

< Holy fuck >

She felt her hand tighten it's grip around the remote controller.

Letting out a shaky breath, she could feel her face getting warm and it didn't help that you chose to sit pretty close to her, your legs almost touching each other.

You turned to look at her and saw her face getting red.

"You sure you're okay?" you raised an eyebrow at her while gently pressing the back of your hand on her forehead.

That only made her burning face even hotter.

"Holy shit, Vi! You're burning up! " you said to her, a worried expression on her face.

"Nonono, it's okay. Just feeling a bit hot." she told you scrambling a bit to find the right words. She took your hand and gently pried it off of her forehead but not letting go of it.

Giving your hand a light squeeze to reassure you that she's okay, she lets go of it and points towards the TV.

"Have you - uhhh- seen mountains?" trying to quickly change the topic to stop her face from burning up, she now wanted to slap herself for asking you such a question.

< Great fucking job, me. Wanted to ask if she's been to the mountains but at the exact moment, I can't remember the damn words. >

Luckily you knew what she had meant with that question since after a while you've developed a knack for deciphering her words.

Glancing at the screen, they were now showing some pretty panoramic shots of the mountains while explaining how mountains formed.

"Hmm" you hummed as you stared at the screen in concentration, Vi looking slightly tilting her head to the side and waiting for your answer.

Your eyebrows and nose were a bit scrunched together, your mouth forming a bit of a pout.

"Cute.", she muttered under her breath as she looked at your pensive expression.

"Did you say something?"

"N-No, just waiting for your answer"

< Oh my god, this can't get even more awkward >

"Hmm, well I've only been once to the mountains with my grandma." you said to her, emphasizing the "once" with your index finger.

"With who?" Vi had understood the first part but couldn't recall what "grandma" meant in your language.

"Ah, wait" you told her, quickly holding your palm towards her to urge her to wait as you got up and when towards the shelves hanging over your TV.

You took the picture of you with your grandma and you with your parents in your hands. You went back to the couch and plopped down next to Vi.

Pointing at your mom, you said " So this is my Mother", you moved your finger to the other picture "and this is my Grandmother but you can also say 'mom' or 'grandma' so it's easier to say."

Meanwhile Vi was internally gushing about how adorable you had looked as a child as you explained her who was who.

You took a look at her and saw that she looked weirdly intrigued by a simple photo of you and your relatives.

Deciding to tease her a bit, you hold back a smirk as you hold the pictures up infront of you and ask "So a question from your teacher. Who is my 'Mother' and who is my 'Grandmother'?"

Rolling her eyes at your antics but knowing you only wanted to test her, she decided to play along.

"So this is your grandmother and this is your mother." she had pointed first with her finger towards your grandma and then your mom.

"Was that, right?" she asked seeing as you weren't saying anything and just staring at her.

"Oh come on, Y/N! What's the answer?" she threw you a deadpanned look. Okay now she was slowly getting annoyed because it was just a simple question and you were unnecessarily dragging it out.

Snickering, you put the pictures onto the table infront of the couch and shrugged your shoulders.

"What do you think?"

"UGH, I'm taking a shower" she threw her hands up as she stood up from the couch and went towards your room to get herself some fresh clothes.

"Okay, okay - pff- you were right." you yelled after her while trying to contain your laughter.

"Yeah, yeah. I know!" she yelled back from your room and came out with a bundle of clothes, throwing you a glance as she shook her head and huffed through her nose.

She couldn't really be annoyed at you for being so annoyingly endearing.

"Don't use up my purple shampoo bottle, please! It's my favorite one." you yelled before she could shut the door.

"Thanks. I'll use it aaaaall up cause of your stupid question." she quickly said but loud enough for you to hear before she shut the door, not waiting for your reply.

"From where did you learn the word" stupid"?! " you exclaimed playfully shocked.

" Someone just swears a lot in this house and it's not only me" you heard her muffled shouting as the sound of running water followed.

"It's not Vi without some swearing, I guess" you chuckled to yourself. Due to her steadily improved speech, her comebacks were also getting better. You weren't trying to belittle her but she just sounded so adorable whenever she would retort with something with that cute accent and more or less broken speech. She was trying real hard to come up with more elaborate words to not burden you with having to keep using simple speech so she'd understand it well which would lead to you having to reassure her, that she doesn't have to force herself to improve since it would come naturally and you were for sure not one to pressure someone.

Looking at the screen, there were now credits rolling down.

You recall Vi's awed expression and you were feeling happy that she wanted to know if you had gone to the mountains.

It was probably out of curiousity but you had a feeling that she also wanted to know more about you.

Well, you were hoping for it and not to mention that your chest couldn't stop welling up with pride because she kept steadily improving.

You couldn't blame her though because who would want to stay in a world where you couldn't understand anyone.

Secretly you were hoping that maybe you were one of the reasons for her eagerness to master the language.

Okay, Y/N. Get down from your high horse, yeehaw but it's a clear sign that I'm not that bad of a teacher, amirite

Glancing at the pictures on the table, you decided to put them back onto the shelves.

Gently putting them back, you hold a longing gaze at your grandma.

"Damn, grandma. If you could just see what's going on at my place. You would have been really happy about having someone who you could finally feed many many plates of your delicious cooking. She would have definitely loved it." you whispered as a slightly sorrowful smile started to creep onto your face.

" Maybe we could have gone to the mountains together again with her. "

The trip with your grandma in South Tyrol was one of the fondest memories you had of her. Just hiking up these mountains, your lungs being filled with such fresh air and the view.

Oh boy, the view.

It was just so majestic for 7 year old Y/N as your grandma gave you a loving pat on the head while telling you how proud she was that you've managed to push through and hike up with her.

The image of you and your grandma standing next to each other while taking in the view is something you would never dare to forget.

"It would be nice if she could see it too." you told your grandma as you merely got her kind smile and the silence of the picture for a reply.

Taking a step back to take a last look before having to start cooking, your mind began to shift gears.

Your eyes widened as a sudden idea popped up in your head.

A really fucking great idea.

You heard the door open up, an indication that Vi was done with her shower.

She was drying her hair with a towel while holding your favorite shampoo in the other and peeking inside the tiny hole of it.

"Okay, so there is little left of your shampoo. You can thank me lat-"

Moving her head up, she could see you standing infront of the shelves.

Precisely infront of the pictures you had shown her earlier.

She stood there for some seconds, watching if you'd react at all.

"You okay, cupcake?" she asked you, while quirking an eyebrow at you.

Startled you turn around, your mood having done a full 180 degree turn as you beamed at her.

Quickly walking up to her, you grabbed her by her shoulders.

"Oh my god, Vi!!"

"W-What?"

"OH MY GOD, VI!!"

"Oh my god, Y/N!! What is it?!" she grabbed your right shoulder while mimicking your voice by making hers a pitch higher and shook you slightly back and forth just as you did.

"I. Am. A. Genius." you told her and with each emphasized word moved your face closer to hers until your noses were nearly touching.

Wide and confused steel blue eyes were looking at you as you could feel her hand clenching your shoulder a bit.

You were too excited to notice her shaky breathing and flickering eyes.

Exhaling deeply, she pushed you a bit back from her and gave you a smile.

Sooner or later you'll be the death of me

"O-Oh, was I too close?" you asked her, your beaming smile morphing into a worried expression and your grasp on her shoulders weakening.

"Nono, you just - uuhhhh- fuck what was that word again?"

"Surprised you?"

"Yeah! Surprised me! So everything's okay." she reassured you as she tucked a stray hair behind your ears, her rough hand softly brushing against your cheek.

"Oh okay then I'm glad" you said while you let your hands slide down from her shoulders to take a hold of her wrists.

"So why exactly are you a genius?" she asked. She was trying real hard to keep her eyes on your face so you wouldn't notice her nervousness and she really didn't want to make you worry again.

She couldn't really move her eyes elsewhere too since your oversized shirt, which was sliding on one shoulder down and your shorts, that stopped at the middle of your thigh were honestly not helping her at all.

You had to bite your lip to contain from squealing out of excitement (while making Vi experience some real hard gay panic) as you inhaled and exhaled deeply.

"So as you know, I've got a summer vacation starting soon, right?"

Vi only blinked at you and shifted her eyes left to right until they went back to look at you again.

"Wait, what's a vacation again?"

"I basically don't have to go to work in 7 days and this time for 14 days!"

"Ohh, cool! And?"

"That's it."

Vi blinked once.

Twice.

Thrice.

"Wait, that's it?"

"Yeah."

"Pff"

She slightly pushed you back as she was trying to contain her laugh but ended absolutely failing that task.

"D-Did you just *wheeze* shake me and yell at me, just to say that you had a vacation? I-i mean that's good for you! You can watch TV or sleep longer aaand so on."

Owlishly blinking at her, you booped her nose.

"I'm a genius."

Gently shoving your hand away from her face, she put her free hand onto your cheek.

"A cute genius." she told you as she pinched your cheek.

"H-Hey, my cheek! Also what did you just say?" you asked as you rubbed your now violated cheek while squinting your eyes trying to mimick her glare.

She only gave you a loopsided smirk as she leaned slightly towards your face.

"Nothing." she said as she turned around to go back to the bathroom but not before roughly ruffling your hair.

"S-Stop it! Oof, you're such a tease sometimes." you grumbled to yourself as you tried to clean the mess up she had created on your head.

"What did you just say?" came from the bathroom.

"Nnnnnnothing!" you mimicked her as you went to your room to grab a small piece of paper and a pen.

"Real funny" came as a reply as you heard her open the fridge.

Huffing through your nose while shaking your head, you started to write down a list for the things you would need for your 'endeavor'.

Luckily you still had your old hiking backpack and boots but Vi needed some.

That's where your good friend Amazon had to help you out but you definitely gonna drag her ass to go shopping with you since you wanted proper hiking shoes were really important and you didn't want her to suffer from blisters.

She'd probably not even mind that but only the best for her, am I right?

You chuckled to yourself as you were nearly done with the list.

Your plan was gonna be perfect and it was gonna be a surprise for Vi.

You really had to stop pampering her before you'd end up broke but how could you not when you've got so many things to show her that she hadn't been able to experience in her world.

Either these things didn't exist or it was just due to her living circumstances.

You had went over to write another list for your groceries as you heard a knock on your door.

Before you could reply, she already came barging in with a popsicle in her hand and the other holding the door's handle.

"Why did you knock when you were going to open it anyway?" you quirked an eyebrow as you questioned her antics.

Nonchalantly shrugging her shoulders, she took a bite of her popsicle while shifting her eyes towards your list.

"You weren't naked soooo" she reasoned as she stepped closer to take a look what you had written.

"Classic" you huffed while a smile crept up to your face as you finished your list.

Vi stood behind you as she looked over your shoulder, enjoying the perks of being some inches taller than you.

"Aha! Finally done" you exclaimed, aprubtly standing straight and bumping the back of your head against her chin.

"Ow!"

"Oof, sweetie? You okay?"

Immediately turning around, she seemed pretty unaffected by it while you were rubbing your head.

Realising what had just happened, you quickly put down the pen in your hand and grabbed her face.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry! Is your chin alright?" you asked her as you tapped gently onto her chin so she'd know what you meant.

Letting out a soft laugh, she booped your nose.

"I'm okay, munchkin. But you gotta buy some popsicles because I just ate the last one. Maybe I'll forgive you after that." she smirked at you while holding her nearly done popsicle infront of your face.

Not letting her tease you this time, you stole her last bite of it.

Vi could only gasp in shock as she moved her eyes back and forth between you and her now gone popsicle.

Only the stick was left in her hand.

"My popsicle?!"

" Our popsicle. So now let's go buy some new ones before someone starts to cry about it. We gotta buy some groceries anyway."

Huffing through her nose, she stuck her tounge out at you.

"Then go and throw this into the trash for me". She took your wrist and before you could react, put the popsicle stick into your hand before letting go and made her way towards your wardrobe.

You could only deadpan at her but decided to let her take the 'win' and took your list with you.

"Tell me when you're done" you told her as you went to the kitchen.

"Why? You're missing a show." You could literally hear her smirking.

.

.

.

.

"Oh come on, atleast say something, Y/N!"

Snickering as you closed the cabinet under your sink, where your trash can was, you made your way back, finding her only in her black jogging pants and white sports bra as you went into your room.

Turning around with a shirt in her hands, she threw it over her shoulder while eyeing you.

She was suggestively wiggling her eyebrows at you. "Came for the show, pumpkin?". You rolled your eyes but decided to amuse her for a bit. To your advantage, she was standing not too far from your bed.

I can play her game too

You began to walk towards her. An eyebrow of hers raising up as if daring you to show her what you're planning.

Pressing your palm onto her chest, you pushed her back, using up little to no force. She was clearly letting you do this since she had still that shit eating smirk on her face.

Her legs had hit your bed as you pushed her down with some force, making her fall onto it with a small "oomph".

She propped herself up onto her elbows as she layed on her back, waiting for your next move.

"So now what, munchkin?"

You didn't reply as you bent over her.

Seeing her eyes widen for a fraction before she tried to cover it up with another smirk of hers, made you feel prouder than you should be.

Wait until I do this.

You began to crawl on top of her and made yourself comfortable on her thighs, effectively straddling her.

Now this was a view you could get used to.

Seeing her beneath you was kinda doing things to you.

Kinda? More like fuck, she's cute.

Vi was too far gone. There was no use hiding her blush now as she really didn't expect you to be this bold since you were usually the one who would try not to invade someone's personal space out of nowhere.

Especially not like this.

But she was definitely not complaining.

Your bare thighs were within her reach. Your oversized shirt showing a bit of your cleavage as it slid down your shoulder.

She gently put her hands onto your knees. She didn't dare to move her hands further up, not wanting to ruin things between the both of you.

But those delicious looking thighs would nearly make her mouth water at the mere sight of them.

Feeling her slightly shaky touch only made your smirk widen as you put more weight onto her thighs, pressing yourself further into her.

Her breath hitched as you saw her squint at you with a dangerous glint in her eyes.

"Cupcake, you're killing me like this"

Wondering if you've made her that flustered that she was slipping out words in her language, only made you let out a soft laugh.

"Are you that nervous, that you're speaking in your language, Vi?"

Before she could give you a reply, you leaned down until your noses were nearly touching each other.

Seeing her eyes from this close just took your breath away.

Just like you could feel the warmth of her breath hitting your face.

Her entire body was feeling pretty hot.

Chuckling, you tilted your head slightly back to give her a kiss on her forehead.

Putting your hand against her cheek, you stroke it gently as you looked her in the eyes.

"Come on, silly. Let's go before the shops start to close cause we're taking too long to get ready " came out as a whisper as you sat straight up. Not even waiting for her to say something, you went to your wardrobe and took out some blue jeans and an oversized hoodie with a dog paw print on the front.

"We'll go after I'm done changing my clothes so you better be ready till then" You took a glance over your shoulder and to top it off, blew her a kiss before going to the bathroom.

It took her some seconds to process what just happened. She raised her hand onto her forehead, gently stroking the spot you had just kissed.

"Fuck, she's driving me crazy" she mumbled as she closed her eyes, letting out a long breath she had been holding the entire time.

This time, she would let you have this win.

Forcing herself to get up, she threw on a tank top and a hoodie over it. Replaying the same moment over and over in her head until she heard her voice call out to her.

"Vi, could you take the trash out with you?" You were already putting on your shoes in the hallway as Vi came out, mumbling something under her breath. Taking her silence towards you as a win, you decided to let her be as she made her way towards the trash can in your kitchen.

Omg, did I fluster her that much??

Trying not to slip out a snicker, you glanced at your phone, glad that you had enough time to buy some groceries and other necessities for your surprise trip.

You put hand into thr pockets of your jacket to check if you've got everything.

Wh-? Where are my keys??

Lowkey panicking, you made a quick stride towards your room.

"Excuse me, where is it??" Frantically looking around in your room, you couldn't see it. This was another peak moment of yours. The key had been in your pocket for days and as soon as you needed it, it's gone.

Meanwhile Vi had been standing in the hallway with the trash bag beside her. Suddenly hearing your loud swearing snapped her out of her thoughts. Chuckling to herself, she went to the coatrack, where some of your other jackets hung.

< Huhh, which one did she wear yesterday? >

She began to randomly dig through pockets until she felt something cold and metallic graze her fingers.

"Y/N, come back. I found your key!"

"OOF where the fuck was that thing?" you came out of your room, huffing exasperated.

"Well, it was in one of your jackets." She said as she pointed at the jacket you had worn yesterday.

"Oohhh, now I remember. Oops, forgot about it" you shrugged your shoulders as you threw  a sheepish smile at her. You only got an eyeroll and ruffling your head as an answer.

"H-Hey!"

Snickering, she gave you your key and pinched your cheek  as she turned around and took the trash bag with her.

"Well, now you got it back so let's go, cupcake."

"Yeah yeah but thanks anyway. Wouldn't have found it without you." You told her as the both of you exited your apartment and walked towards the building's door.

Vi only gave you a smug smirk over her shoulders as she opened the door.

"Glad I can help you, cutie" Holding the door open for you, she gave you a wink. Sooner or later your eyes would fall out from how often you've been rolling your eyes these days.

"Ever the charmer, are we? Also you still haven't told me what cupcake or the thing you just said meant."  you asked her as she threw the trash into the trash bin standing near the entrance.

Turning around, she shrugged her shoulders at you and still had that smug ass smirk on her face." It's a secret. "

You squinted your eyes at her.

" Sooner or later I'll find it out or I'll just make you say it"

She whistled at your cute intimidation.

"Cupcake, you can't even hurt a fly."

"Ugh, let's just drive already" You jammed your key into your car's door and opened it.

Following your lead, she went inside and plopped onto the passenger's seat.

"Waddya wanna listen to?", you asked her as you plugged in the AUX cable into your phone.

Vi blinked at you, processing your words in her head.

"Uhh, you mean music?"

"Yeah"

"Ohhh uh not sure. I'll listen to what you listen to" she said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"You know what, I'll let you choose what we should listen to". You put your phone in her hand as you turned on the engine.

She gave you a smile, happily took your phone and opened up Spotify.

"Oh okay. Then I'll find some good music" she chirped while scrolling down on your playlist.

You smiled at that as you slightly leaned towards her to boop her nose.

"I'm sure you will"

Vi only scrunched her nose at you as you began to drive your car out of the parking lot.

----------------------------------------------------

"Finally home."

Vi dramatically exclaimed as she kicked her shoes off. Dragging the bags with her, she let them drop onto the floor as she plopped face down onto the couch.

Chuckling, you closed the door behind you as you set the bags down.

"Come on, it wasn't that bad." you mused  while slipping your shoes off.

Vi scoffed. "Excuse me? We went to like what - ten? - yeah ten or more different shops! And we have like so many fucking bags! Instead of maybe sitting down for a bit or eat something , No! We had to hurry because someone took too long at the clothing section!" If anybody would have told you before meeting her, that going shopping with her would make her behave like the biggest baby in the world, you would have never believed them.

She was able to take down anyone that stood her way and wouldn't even think of complaining even if she would've gotten shot by a bullet.

But shopping? You could hear god tell you to have mercy on her.

Sighing, you dropped the bags in the hallway and made your way towards the couch.

Not gonna lie but her being a big baby after that is so adorable but also exhausting.

Maybe it was some 'elderly sister' thing (even though she's two years older than you) but her being all whiny and dramatic just made you want to pamper her more.

You stopped in your tracks.

*Gasp* Maybe that's her goal. Well let's not question her before she'll disappear outta nowhere just to come back and say "Aah, I went out for a jog and maayybe got into a fight with someone but now I feel a lot better"

Shaking your head at your weird thoughts, you went towards the couch and stood behind it.

Peering over, she still hadn't budged from her position.

"How can you breathe with your face getting stuffed into the couch?"

"I'm fine, thank you." she replied into the couch, her voice getting muffled by it.

Walking around the couch, you crouched down and kneeled infront of it and next to her head.

Poke

Poke

Poke

"Stop"

She turned her head, her cheek pressed against the cushion as she squinted at you. Normally, she would have retorted with something playful or cheeky but this shopping trip had really snuffed all her energy out of her.

Carrying the bags itself wasn't a problem and she adored the look on your face whenever you would find something to buy for her.

She had a hard time getting used to that and is  actually still trying to adjust since she had never known or experienced being pampered like that at all. She was usually the one that had to look out for others. She was their pillar. Their leader and the one shouldering everything.

And now she was living a level of comfort that she had never thought of being able to witness.

It would just get stressful after a while since shopping seemed to somehow enhance your endurance and speed because even after having been there for months, she still wasn't able to memorize where to find the things you need. It was especially difficult in the bigger city near your small one since it was loaded with a huge varity of shops and having to search for you every five seconds in those huge crowds was just exhausting.

So Vi wasn't feeling too bad for being dramatic because 1. She was hungry and 2. Having to fear losing you and being left alone in a city she didn't really know how to manuveur through was not helping her at all.

-She just hated the thought of losing you and being left by herself at the end-

Letting a soft smile grace your lips, you tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and cupped her cheek.

"Was it that tiring, Vi?" you cooed at her and began to gently stroke her cheek with your thumb.

She closed her eyes and let out a pleased sigh at your soft touch. Putting her hand over yours, she opened her eyes and her gaze having softened significantly.

" Yes. Yes, it was tiring. You would always be gone whenever I would turn around" You felt her hand slightly clench as she spoke her next words.

"I just... don't really like it."

Your heart ached.

Hard.

She felt bad as she watched your loving expression turn into a hurt but apologetic in mere seconds.

Not wanting to see you like that, she gently pushed your hand away as she sat up.

"But it's okay. It's okay if you have fun and we got to buy some good stuff too."

Don't mess this up, Violet

She told herself as she proceeded to get up feeling the need to go outside to calm her head.

"No!" You exclaimed as you grabbed her wrist, making her stop in her tracks.

Turning around, her heart dropped to her stomach when she saw your face.

You were angry. Angry at yourself for not having been more considerate and leaving her alone but you couldn't deny that you were also angry at her for trying to run away after she had just started to open up about her feelings.

You wanted her to feel comfortable enough to finally share her worries with you. You knew how difficult it is to open up while having to deal with the fear of being judged or possibly ruining something but at the same time, you were aware of the consequences of bottling it up and that would never end up good.

Glaring at her, you pulled her back.

"Sit." you demanded as you pointed towards the couch.

"O-Okay" She quickly obliged, not wanting to fuck it up further. It was rare seeing you angry and she would have never expected you to be angry at her since you had shown nothing but patience.

Except maybe that one time but that's another story to tell.

You made her take a seat next to you. Her eyes kept shifting away from your intense gaze and thankfully, you noticed that.

You put your hand on her cheek and made her look at you. Cupping her cheeks with both hands, you began to rub them.

Blinking, she got confused by your antics.

"W-What are you doing?" she managed to voice out but it only got muffled by you squishing her cheeks.

"I'm distracting you."

"You're what?"

Stopping, you put your index finger on ther forehead and poked it.

"Making you stop your thoughts. Your head. From thinking or just working in general."

She took your hand into hers to stop you from drilling a hole into her head.

"Why?" she asked as she furrowed her eyebrows at you.

Sighing, you pulled your hand away and scooted a bit to the side.

You patted your thighs.

"Head."

< What the fuck, can she stop being so confusing >

"Uhhh, those are your thighs?"

Snorting, you shook your head and put your hands on either side of her head.

"No, Violet. I want you to lie your head on my lap or to be specific, my thighs."

You were afraid of her eyes falling out from how much they bulged at your words.

Not to mention that her face literally exploded and honestly, so did her heart.

"I-I uh fuck."

You shot her a look.

"Okay, okay. I'll do it."

"Good." You chirped.

Slowly she layed her head onto your lap and made herself comfortable as she layed on her side.

She was sure that she had ascended to heaven.

< Fuck, they're soft. >

She was beginning to melt in your touch as you started to stroke her head, even slightly scratching her scalp.

She let out a shaky sigh, a warm feeling spreading in her chest.

"I'm sorry." Hearing your words snapped her back into reality as she turned to lay on her back.

"I-" Gulping, you looked anywhere else but her , having to sort your thoughts out and to know what to say next.

Suddenly you felt her finger gently graze your cheek making you look down at her.

"What are you sorry for, munchkin?"  she asked while continuing to stroke your cheek.

Gazing at her loving steel blue eyes and her concerned expression, you let out a deep exhale.

"I'm sorry for always running off like that. There was just a lot good stuff to buy and so many things that would look good on you or we'd need for this apartment and more but that lead to you being left behind and that was really shitty of me. It must have been really stressful and scary for you whenever I would disappear. "

Somehow to your tough luck, your eyes started to glaze over.

" Oh, baby. "  she gave you a soft smile as she put her rough hand onto your cheek. You instinctively leaned into her touch, yearning for her reassurance that she wasn't mad at you.

" Ssssshh, it's okay it's okay. Just... just hold onto my hand next time? So I won't have to go and search for you, of course." she said as she threw in a shy but sheepish smile at you.

Slipping out a weak chuckle, you took her hand that had been stroking your cheek and laced your fingers together.

" If that helps you then I will. I also wanted to say thank you for telling me and don't you dare run away as soon as you tell me about your worries."

Frowning at your words, her eyes began to shift away from your stern but loving gaze.

"I-I wasn't running away." she firmly stated as a frown had started to form on her face.

"Okay, let's say you weren't running away but you went away as soon as you told me about it and I wouldn't have been able to talk to you about it if I hadn't stopped you from leaving."

She could only stay silent as she clenched her hand, that had been previously comfortably on her stomach, into a fist.

You noticed it and slowly took her fisted hand into your free one. You gently pried her fist open and brought both of her hands onto your face making her shift her eyes back to you.

"What I wanted to say is, it's okay to tell me about your worries. You don't have to if you don't want to but I will always listen to what you say and that I'm here for you. You don't have to deal with this alone as long as you talk to me about it. I mean I can try to read it from your face but that's kinda difficult. " You tried to end it with a joke to lighten up the mood but realised you had failed as you saw her eyes start to glaze over.

"Oh my god, was my joke that terrible?"

She let out a laugh as she grasped your face, pulling you closer to her until your forehead touched hers.

"You're so cute, you know?" she smiled at you while stroking your cheek with her thumb.

Your face had become unsurprisingly hot and judging from her chuckle, she felt it too.

"D-Does that mean that it was good?"

"No, Y/N. It was terrible."

She nuzzled her nose against yours as you pouted at her words.

"But I'll forgive you since you're so cute, sweet cheeks"

You tried to playfully glare at her but couldn't as her warm breath hit your face and that damn sweet smile of hers was making you feel things.

Not to mention that her mouth is so close too

"You better do that and you'll also better tell me next time if something bothers or worries you, okay?"

"Okay" she nodded as she pulled your forehead towards her lips and planted a kiss on it.

You let out a shaky sigh, feeling everything you've discussed dawn on you more.

"I-I want a hug. This discussion made me feel kinda sad."

Chuckling as her lips lingered on your forehead, she answered. "Wasn't the kiss enough for you? Do you need more?" she teased.

Pulling away, you let your eyes linger on her face.

Only bashfully taking glances at her lips.

"Hmm, how about a k-kiss and a hug?" you whispered, feeling a bit shy.

"If you want."

"Yeah, I want to."

She pecked your forehead as she sat up next to you.

Leaning her back comfortably on the couch, she patted her lap and opened her arms.

Beckoning you to climb onto her lap with a smile and a nod, you crawled over to her.

She closed her arms around you as soon as she made sure you were comfortable and let chin rest on top of your head.

It had become some sort of habit for you to climb onto her lap whenever you would feel down. She was a bit nervous at first when you had first asked her for a hug but since the both of you were pretty touch starved, it didn't take long for it to be fundamental for the both of you. After a while it had progressed to you sitting on her lap. Forehead kisses were just something extra that had slipped in after some time but Vi wasn't sure if she'd be able to refrain herself any longer from kissing you for real.

But that would be a problem for another time. Right now, she was relishing in your warmth while you listened to the soothing sound of her beating heart.

Tracing your finger on her arm, you could feel her muscles through her hoodie.

"I haven't asked you what you wanted for dinner yet."

You heard her chest rumble as she let out a whispy laugh.

"Well, we could have some pizza again if you want?"

You let out a snicker at her suggestion.

"Didn't we have that yesterday?"

Your body shook slightly due to her shrugging

shoulders.

"It tastes good and I love it when you make it."

"Good thing we bought too much of that pizza dough last time."

"Oh yes, that's really good." She pecked your head and began to stroke your back.

"But the pizza can wait, so you can rest for a bit."

You tilted your head to look at her.

"What about you?"

"I'll rest as well. As you can see, I'm feeling pretty good right now" she replied to you as she put her hand onto the back of your head, shifting it to it's previous position and moved on to stroking your head.

You let out a dreamy sigh as you nuzzled your cheek against her chest.

"Then I'll do that but what about the grocery bags on the floor?"

You heard her let out a sigh as she tightened her arms around you.

"We can do that later but now you rest."

You let out a drowsy snicker.

"Okay, okay. Could you wake me up in 30 minutes?"

"I'll do that, cupcake so sleep well"

"Thank you, Vi."

You felt her soft lips press onto the top of your head.

"Anything for you, munchkin."

Were her last words before you let your eyes droop, burrying your face into her chest before drifting off to a short nap.

[lost-in-fictionn]

Hii idk if u do this but if u do Can you pls recommend me Enemies/Rivals to Lovers fics with

"who did this to you?"

Going from last name to first name after some time happens-

One bed

Oh. Oh.

Fuck it.

(preferably not fandom ones)

Generally just the most famous Enemies/Rivals to Lovers books. They don't have to be all in one ofc i just wanna read some bc i can't find any bc idk how to use AO3

Hiii 👋👋

I, uhhh, don't look at the names of the fics that I read 😳👉👈 I honestly can't remember any of them right now. I know I've read the tropes you mentioned A LOT, but the names... And mine were all fandom ones. I usually read about my fave couples in different scenarios. I know my answer will be no help to you but I'd like to show you how I filter in Ao3, so maybe you can find something you like this way?

I'm a mobile user, so these are all screenshots from mobile website but I don't think the desktop version is much different.

Type the ship you want to read about in the search bar however you want, and click on the official ship tag in the first fic (it's in red in the picture below)

You'll go to the official tag like shown below. See, there were 327 fics for what I searched but 19k+ fics in the official tag. That's how I know I'm in the right place lol. Then click on the filters button.

You'll see a screen like this

You can include or exclude the things you like or dislike (tags, ratings, characters, fandoms for crossovers etc.)

And you can decide whether you want pain or relief by choosing complete fics or not. You can decide how long you want your fic to be. You can decide if you want crossovers or not.

These are how I decide my fics usually. I'm sorry I can't help you more. As I said, I usually read about my fave ships (see the pics? I'm a dramione sucker lol). Or you can ignore my first instruction and search enemies to lovers in the search bar. I'm sure you can find more that way actually.

Hope you find what you look for :))

[salamiwrites]

Moment I saw you were taking requests I ran like this

So maybe a kimetsu no yaiba match up? 👀👉👈

Our lil girlie today is Sylvia! Or Shirubia.

She's 5'6, 19 and a part of the demon slayer corps being the spider lily pillar.

She has pastel pink hair and violet eyes, could be Mitsuri's older cousin.

Actually, just like Mitsuri, she's unusually strong, but she does have a drawback being blind like Gyomei. But to counter that, she has much more sensitive skin, though that makes any wounds much more painful....

It's strange how she joined the corps, or how she managed to rise to the position of pillar since she has and always been a pacifist. She made sure that all of her breathing techniques were as painless as possible. Her moves were elegant and soft, much like a dancer. Something that makes her unique is that she doesn't have a sword, but instead gets a chinese Qiang to help dight demons better.

She was orphaned. Her parents being killed by demons when she was just 3. Later on, she was picked up and raised by the demon slayer corps. Though she never liked fighting, she always tried to protect innocent lives.

Extra Trivia!:

Afraid of fire(sorry Rengoku, sorry Tanjiro)

Loves flowers, and has a few wisteria plants of her own.

Actually approved of Nezuko!

Loves but is allergic to chocolate

Has a cute kitten sneeze

Dislikes Sanemi and Inosuke because of how violent they are

Canonically became a demon but returned to a human state after

Really soft-spoken

Physical love language

Actually great at playing instruments

Anxious and plays with her hair when she panics

Shy and oblivious

Scared of rodents bc it's funny

Hi there!! Thanks for requesting, I hope you'll enjoy your matchup!(I hope it's to your liking, english isn't really my first language, and this is actually my first ever matchup request so....)

I match Sylvia up with....

Shinobu Kocho!

Let me just say, I had a really hard time trying to decide between Giyu and Shinobu, but I ultimately came to choose Shinobu due to Giyu's stoic and quiet demeanor

One of the main reasons why Shinobu fell for Sylvia would be because she didn't judge her for her appearance, and considering how she finds herself inferior to the other hashiras because of her short stature, she'd feel surprised that she didn't judge her for how she looked, rather, for her cheery personality

When they both fight together, whether it be slaying demons, or one-on-one sparring at the flower mansion, Shinobu often finds herself sneaking glances at Sylvia, she finds her effortless yet effective way of fighting very attractive

Shinobu would definitely empathise with Sylvia when she finds herself grieving for her late parents, heck, she lost most her family to demons

She would be overjoyed to find out that Sylvia loves flowers, as the insect hashira and a former apprentice of the late flower hashira, she'll put it upon herself to make you the most intricate and perfect wisteria necklace. When she presents the necklace she tirelessly worked on for the past week, Sylvia stares at the necklace in awe, a thin gold necklace with dried wisteria petals attached, she smiles, "Although, wisteria petals lose their effectiveness to demons after they're dried, I hope it's a gift that you'd keep for good luck." Sylvia tears up and engulfs Shinobu in a hug, pink dusting the latter's cheeks. "Worth it.", She whispers.

When Sylvia comes back from defeating a demon, she's sometimes left in pain due to her extremely sensitive skin. The moment she catches Shinobu's eye, she practically drags her off into the Butterfly Mansion to concoct some medicine for Sylvia to recover

She would find Sylvia's kitten sneezes adorable, sometimes, she'd even refrain from dusting her bedroom to hear her sneeze, of course, she'd accommodate you with an adequate supply of tissues, so I suppose she doesn't have much to complain about. (Don't worry, she doesn't do it often though!)

As Sylvia's quite soft-spoken, so whenever Sylvia can't find herself to speak louder, Shinobu finds herself speaking up and clarifying what she's trying to say to the others, she'll make her be heard no matter what

Midnights at the butterfly mansion are mostly spent outdoors, they both would be sitting outside the balcony, feet dangling over the wooden platform. Sylvia strums her shamisen melodically while Shinobu lays her head on Sylvia's shoulder

I feel like after Sylvia and Shinobu get together, Sylvia, even though she's shy and oblivious, would gain this unusual confidence that causes even Shinobu to blush profusely (etc, THE KABEDON POSITION!!!!!! (I love it so much omg))

Short fic... time?(I was kind of lazy, and I was about to sleep so..) (Sorry if it's kind of OOC, it's my first time ever writing for kny and I'm still sort of a new fan)

It was midnight, Sylvie kept her hand hovering over her spear as she navigated through the woods, she was informed earlier that there was a demon on the loose, as she had to fulfill her duty as the spider lily pillar, she journeyed through the lands to slay this demon.

It should've been like any other time where she slayed demons, where she slayed them alone, but a special someone happened to target the same very demon that she was tasked to kill.

The moment Sylvia saw her face, she paid the other slayer no mind, she wasn't exactly close to any of her subordinates nor peers, so she didn't know who was who, thus leading to her not knowing about Shinobu's existence.

They both fought together, on par with other, blow for blow and easily overcame the powerful demon they faced.

Sylvia, because of her shyness, quickly fled, no, left the scene, after they killed the demon.

As Sylvia leaves the forest, Shinobu was left standing where they originally fought together, when she places a hand on her face and feels her now warm cheeks, she mumbled, starstruck, "I have to know who she is.."

Can I just say... I also considered Genya as well, but the age gap is.... nty

#MATCHUP MASTERLIST #SUBMIT A REQ!

[veethewriter]

Maybe a Matchup for the event if it's still open please? ��👈

16 INFP-T​ And a Matchup for Haikyuu please!

Hobbies : I'm into drawing and singing at the very moment and I like writing, reading and Cosplaying too! And I play some sports too, like Volleyball (Haikyuu made me play it -) and golf too! And sometimes I sing out of nowhere and like to goof around with people who knows me well enough. And somehow I play a lot of vide games and mobile games as well, which I have too much hobbies that it made me tired, yet happy. And I design stuffs too, i had a dream to be a designer some day but my parents doesn't approve.

Likes : I likes aesthetic things and somehow buys them without thinking, and I kinda like staying up late. Texting online friends, and my sleep schedule is never healthy. Sometimes when I feel the urge to play sports I play it out of nowhere too, but somehow tends to push myself a little too hard and sometimes ended up injured. I like the feeling of comfortable silence too, or sitting with someone who you trusts and binge watching 9-10 anime​ episodes per night. But I like to chat too, sometimes when I feel evicted I can't even hold my mouth, I'd spill most things easily. And I like the feeling of being guided too, like riding a bike knowing if you fall someone will be there to catch you. (you acn tell how I have my ways with words bc look now I'm poetic out of nowhere)

Dislikes : Like going to the party knowing that you'll have to make new friends? ASKAGSJA Na I really hate changes, like I know life has to change but I couldn't handle everytime that thibvs were thrown my way and I will have to accept it and live. And I don't like people who judges others just because appearance, I have my own personal experience bc my eyes make my look like someone who's trying to pick a all the time so people somehow avoid me. And somehow I get anxious easily so being in foreign place or staying away from where I feel safe makes me scared.

What I look for in a partner : Someone who accepts me being who I am not the front I try to put up. And knows that sometimes I'm not the best. And maybe caring and sometimes goofy too. (sometimes being with a too funny people drains my social meter real fast tho) And someone who feels like home, and could give me inspiration and be my muse when I lack of inspiration. And has a warm and domestic aura, like warm and fluffy blanket?? Okay my descriptions are stupid I know And someone who's not forcing and sometimes knows my limits when I'm tired or sad and doesn't expect me to be happy 24/7. And maybe someone who's not to quiet nor too loud, I don't like people who listens but doesn't say a word but like a person who asks and comment occasionally. And people who are down to earth and sometimes ask me to do stupid things together. Like go eat Mcdonald at 3 am. Or texting puns at midnight. And sometimes could push me out of my comfort zone and help me to say no when I don't dare to. And keep my self degradation and insecurities at bay when I'm feeling stressed. And don't think I'm a casino owner or something when I wear a mask and look at them, or maybe they could laugh about random facts about me or them for literal 3 hours. And I don't like rough people tho -

THANKS A LOT ;W; HOPE YOU GET A LOT MORE FOLLOWERS!

Have great day and stay safe! 💜

Sorry this took a while I got off tumbler for the day but I'm back now!! For haikyuu I match you with Asahi!!

Random head cannons:

Asahi loves to stay up and watch shows with you but because he's used to his volleyball schedule, he usually ends up accidentally falling asleep sometimes.

Asahi usually acts goofy in front of you only because he feels like he can be himself in front of you all the time.

First date:

Asahi would get fast food with you in the middle of the night and take you to watch the stars while you two talk.
