Yo Lucci! My guy! 🙋‍♂️

May I ask for an insecure and fluff request plz?

GN!Reader x masked cod characters

The masked cod partner showed reader their face for the first time.

KONIG, NIKTO, VALIKAN, ROACH, AND HORANGI.

Sorry if it's too many characters, bro. 😅

A/n: sure! And nah, you’re good. I love writing for all of these characters :)

Velikan:

-he was.. less then happy with the idea that eventually he would have to show you his face, you were his lover after all but still

-it had become something he was very connected to, and he hoped you wouldn’t stop liking him over something as dumb as his face

-it was a very early morning when he woke you up, softly taking off his helmet before standing next to you. waiting for your response, and when you reacted positive;

-he hugged you so tight he almost popped your back, head resting on your shoulder

konig:

-he was connected to his mask, it was his shield from others, it was something that mattered to him

-I think when you asked him to take it off it took him a fully minute to work up the gut to even respond

-ended up taking it off so you could fix a wound he got while on mission, and didn’t regret it for a second once you reacted

horangi:

-to be honest? He doesn’t truly mind. Sure his mask was something that made him feel safer but it was more for work then actual life.

-my man’s just tosses off his helmet and mask the day after you ask (because he wanted to kiss you but yknow.)

-still always wears it in public or at work, but at home he’ll keep it off all the time

roach:

-this was a BIG ask for him, he basically never goes without it. But if it made you feel happier he would ofc

-you were his lover after all, but that quelling feeling of you disliking how he looked was still there

-he let you take it off in the middle of the night, so that only the moonlight would show his features

-turned bright red in blush when you kissed him afterwards

nikto:

-he hated it. He hated his face and his scars. He viewed the mask as his face more so then his own face…

-but oh did it hurt him to say no, so ofc he let you take it off, as long as he didn’t have to see his face himself

-loves the feeling of your warm touch on his jagged scars, although sometimes it gets a bit uncomfortable when it brings back old memories

[fishsinsareacknowledged]

Nsfw

Oh yeah also Nikto gets off being someone's pillar, aka if u come to him crying and asking him to hold you. He will, but he's trying so hard not to moan when you murmur thank you's into his skin.

Pulling back a earthy whine when you bury your head into his now sensitive neck, hiding the boner thats very much leaking and making a fucking mess on his shorts. Holding you close to his side ever so silently while he lets you sob it out. Just making sure you latch onto him first before he latches onto you.

[microwavablefork]

Something something Nikto who was raised in an extreme traditional household to the point that he has very poor knowledge of female bodily functions and anatomy.

Cut to him moving in with his sweet зайка and not understanding why you’re so pissed off with him now! He assumes you must be sulking over some frivolous thing, curling up in a blanket nest on the couch. Whining about your cramps; he marks it up to food poisoning, scolding you for eating seafood at that Chinese down the road again, much to your chagrin.

Imagine his horror when he smells blood in the bathroom. He immediately assumes the worst, panicking over your health, if you’re hurt, why you are bleeding or if there’s something else dying in the house. This is all, of course, followed by your sweet laughter as you try to explain what a period is to your brooding bear of a boyfriend (who’s holding an unopened pad like it’s diseased mind you) between tears of laughter.

[simp4konig]

Okay okay I have to ask, what’s your fav head canons of Nikto then? I love hearing other people’s ideas and head canons of cod characters ^^ 💕

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Blunt and straight to the point. Sees no rhyme nor reason in beating around the bush and sugarcoating his words. As a result, he can be viewed as insensitive and lacking in empathy.

Impatient, and has a short fuse, so blows up often. Only you are able to be the calm after his storm, subduing him with soft reassurances and whispered words.

To say that he is possessive would be an understatement — he is extremely territorial.

After his torture, he is wary of the few things that he posesses and can actually call his own (you). His biggest phobia is losing you, and his irrational fear is someone stealing you away. Any prick unlucky enough to not catch on to you two dating will be lucky enough to survive the beating that he is given.

On that note, he is simultaneously self-assured, and insecure.

His mask is a part of him, and personal. It will take him months for him to shed said part of him.

Constantly fears that you will leave him once he reveals his face to you, so puts it off for as long as he possibly can. The day that he takes off his mask, only for you to be so casual about it and passing it off as your day-to-day, is the day that became cemented in his hard, stony heart.

Has conflicting views towards marriage. On the one hand, is an official document declaring your relationship really so necessary? Isn't an expensive wedding superfluous, and too sensational? To him, all of that is redundant — he's yours, and you're his…

…On the other hand, a glistening ring on your finger invokes a primal desire to make you more his than you are already. It would be a declaration of a love which even death wouldn't do part. Maybe he should pay more attention to the rings on display at the jewellery stores you pass by when shopping occasionally together.

An introverted man, who finds solace in solitude; excluding you, his partner, he has no companions, and rarely associates with anyone else. The voices in his head are bothersome enough, so why does he need additional voices bothering him? With that said, you would think that your presence would be a bother — especially with your mindless chatter when Nikto doesn't grunt at the idle small talk at times, wholly unresponsive for the majority of the time — but the moment you give any indication of leaving, he seizes your wrist, his cold, icy eyes silently pleading for you to stay. And you do. You always do.

Bringing me onto my next point: he is a good listener. Your ramblings are all that to you; ramblings. To Nikto, however, it's his chance to unpick all the information about you, down to the littlest of details. You wrongly assume that your words fall on deaf ears, but he listens, and he memorises every opinion you have, every statement you make, and even the small anecdotes that you share, which becoming engraved in his brain. He goes over every sentence religiously, as if it was the Bible.

He has an exceptionally good memory, tending to remember things that you had forgotten. Mention something that you craved in passing? He would surprise you with it the next time you bring it up. Alluded to someone who insulted you and ruined your day? Well, it would be no surprise that that person would never ruin your day ever again.

He is like a cat in the sense that he is an unwanted stray. However, when you came to want him, it dawned on you that he was no cat, but a panther. A predator — savage, vicious.

He would kill for you, no questions asked (He has already done it, but you don't know about that. After all, you hadn't asked him that question yet, only in jest. Truth be told, he has made so many death threats that you have become desensitised to them, dismissing them as nothing more than that: threats).

He would have died for you (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE @//charliemwrites’s DEPICTIONNOF NIKTO IN THIS SCENE??????? HAD ME ON MY KNEES 🛐💍🧎🏼‍♀️ PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE VI NEED HIM SOVBAD); however, when you were hyperventilating as you sobbed and were close to reaching hysterics, that's when he realised that he should value his life more.

Incredibly stealthy. You've seen his execution animations… 🤒 Uses that stealth to sneak up on you whenever your guard is down to smack your ass. 🤭

Insomnia troubles him at night, the relief of sleep rarely coming to him; therefore, he tends to be nocturnal, buying groceries and going about the usual errands you would have otherwise done during the day. When you wake up, that empty fridge is magically stocked with your favourite food, your bear snoozing sometimes — most of the time he stares at you like a creep. 💀 /aff

When he does sleep, it tends to be during the day, and it's almost as if he is a bear entering hibernation

He sleeps like a plank — on his back, his arms by his sides, and his legs straight. You'll curl onto his side, your head on his chest, his legs between your core, and a strong arm wrapped around your waist.

Snores. REALLY loud. 😬 ONLY when you are in his arms 🙄 — when he sleeps alone, he is eerily silent.

Subsequently finding him laying in bed, still and silent, you were sobbing, thinking that he died in his sleep. Finally, after minutes of shaking him awake, he opened one eye, and grumbled groggily: “Дорогая, shut up. I am not dead. Not when I have you to live for. Now, come.”

Once he is asleep, good luck getting him to wake up again; unless you somehow manage to disentangle yourself from his arms — only then, when his myshka is missing, does he begrudgingly get up from bed, stand outside the bathroom door, and whisk you back to bed, willfully ignoring your complaints.

Proud of being your protector. Always has his hand[s] on you in some way or other, protectively keeping you by his side.

Has 20/20 vision, and perfect hearing.

Don't mistake his opening of pickle jars and water bottles for you as chivalry — he is taking advantage of it to show off his muscles for you. Doesn't want you to ask if you want to cup a squeeze of his bicep — when he sees you staring, he will forcibly take your hand and put it on his arm, positively smirking beneath that mask of his.

Has a staring problem and is unashamed of it. From his point of view, there is no problem in staring at you all day and every day.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Eye contact with him is intense. Whenever you avert your gaze, he instantly grabs your chin to angle it so it's facing him. Eye contact during sex is a given.

Despite not wanting to be a father, he has an insatiable breeding kink (does not care whether you are a female, a male, an infertile female, or other — he is delusional in that sense).

Although he isn't against children per se — mainly indifferent to them, if I'm honest — wouldn't want to pass on the generational trauma onto his brood. He would prefer his bloodline ending with him.

His dirty talk is so filthy that you get wet from just his voice and innuendo. (Thank you @//xoxunhinged for your headcanon 😫💦)

His animalistic instincts are so prominent that you've become convinced that he purrs whenever you stroke that sensitive spot on his scalp, and growls in between grunts as he thrusts into you.

Is rough, leaving dark hickeys and bruises, but he would never, ever hurt you. He's rougher than most, but has sufficient self-restraint to be realise ahead of time if he is making you uncomfortable.

You are his deity, and he worships you — if he was to ever hurt you, he would enter a state of loathing. Since you were a merciful God, he would take the liberty of punishing himself — retribution suited to his crime.

One time you two were play wrestling and he almost dislocated your hip on accident. He didn't touch you again for at least two weeks, until he finally considered himself worthy of your touch.

Is dominant in bed, for two major reasons: because he prefers exerting the control which was forced upon him, relishing in having you submit to him; manhandling you to showcase his strength

A third reason is because if you were to ever top him, he'd cum embarrassingly quickly.

Probably gets off to being stronger than you. Deliberately puts you in positions which render you powerless, only able to take what he gives you.

Whenever you enter his room, he always sits in the darkness. Insists: “I do not need lights. Lights are wasted when I can see in the dark.”

Which is true... but it is also a pretence to hide the concerningly detailed shrine taking up an entire wall, dedicated to you. You'll come to find all of your lost trivial belongings when you mistakenly flick on the light switch.

His loyalty and devotion is unparalleled to any other's. He is utterly and unashamedly down bad for you, and he is willing to do anything and everything to keep it that way.

Thankfully, he doesn't have to do much, because you, too, love him. A lot.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A/N I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEED HIMI NEED HIM I NEED HIM I NEEDH IM I NEED—

Yeaah i thought comparing him to a panther would be cool 🐈‍⬛

“Guard dog” and just anything to do with a “dog” is an overused trope to me at this point 😐. Dont get me wrong!!!! , it doesnt mean that i dont LIKE the trope!!!! , but my own interpretation of Nikto is a little different, abd i think it suits him better,, Esp bc panthers technically 🤓☝️ do *not* exist, which links to how the definition of his name in Russian is “Nobody” :)

An unconventional animal for a very unconventionally attractive man😽,,

Anyways, it is time for a cigarette 🚬🤏😪. I will return in approximately 56 business days (trust me guys 😋✌️).

[cerosin-bis]

Hii!! I love the newest piece you made, I was just wondering if you had any like.. wholesome hcs for KN, like ik their dynamic is inherantly unhealthy and they are both very flawed ppl, but that image makes me think about all the times were theyre just embracing eachother and being affectionate and sweet, and i was just wondering like... Do they have some niche nice little hobbies? Silly habits? Do they like to sing in the shower? :) I hope this makes sense, have a great day!!

Hi! I'm glad you like what I do! 😌💞 Truthfully, I think about fluff/domestic shit between Krueger and Nikto much more than I let it appear over here. There's a lot of fondness and sweetness between them. Their love is majorly about how comfortable they are with each other, in the very best and the very worst ways.

In the morning, Nikto's usually up first - doesn't like lingering in bed - and he will make coffee for the both of them (they both take a short black espresso, but Krueger puts two sugar cubes in his).

in Nikto's room, amidst the borderline hoarder-grade mess, there's a hanger behind the door that he leaves clear because krueger puts his jacket there.

Nikto does hum idly, just for a few seconds but it happens often. shower or not (mostly not because he's usually very silent when he showers, it's a peculiar moment for him always. either relaxing or stressful).

Krueger meditates sat in the bed for a few minutes when he wakes up before nikto does.

Krueger smokes with his left hand, sleeps on the left side of the bed (to nikto's right).

Nikto smokes Marlboro reds and Krueger Camel filters and both think the other's cigarette taste like shit. BUT they're attached to the smell because it reaminds them of each other

They like sleeping with their legs entangled one way or another. like this

[towelenjoyer]

Nikto who's more of a housewife off work because as much as he loves his job he loves being cooed and praised by you as he helps you do the chores, everything is all worth it when he gets a kiss on the kiss in exchange for his perfect folding skills

[yawnderu]

Your personal thoughts on titties fuck?

No characters or anything? Just MY personal thoughts?? 😭

It's hot af imo, ways to be intimate without penetration are pretty nice and fun :3 (can u tell i haven't slept with anyone since like October)

Speaking of it, I bet Simon, Nikto, König and Astarion enjoy those a lot. And of course, the disgusting men: Krauser and Heisenberg.♡♡

[shadowscommand]

In NiktoRodion, I love how you write them, what do you think is Rodion 's limit? Causing them breakup as you say(hypothetically)?

short answer:

long answer:

its nikto's 5 million conflictions. delving into my hc past for him (raised by a very young single mother) he has like No Reference of what is a healthy relationship. its a very childish fear of his but he just doesnt think relationships are worth it bc "love" doesnt last (bc he never witnessed two people try to actually Make it work for the majority of his life). but rodion is rly hardheaded and does believe in love and he recognizes that they love each other But he also recognizes that if nikto isn't willing to commit then the struggle just isn't worth it.

being in a legitimate relationship with rodion is terrifying to nikto bc it not only makes Him feel trapped in something doomed he really does not want to make rodion struggle with anything this emotionally exhausting. he wouldnt like that rodion is like 20 years younger and trying to spend his life being nikto's caretaker (even tho rodion himself is 100% fine with this and would love it.) esp since he knows rodion would like a happy home life with a loving family (kids included bc hes normal) when nikto doesn't even want rodions mom to know theyre Close bc hes a 40+ year old mentally ill man. nikto is self fulfilling the prophecy of nr being a failed relationship bc of this but he legitimately cant help himself but think of himself as Bad For Rodion. and he wants to see him succeed..

u Could say rodions aspirations for life kill a successful relationship but legitimately he would do a lot to make it work with nikto. Anything for 1 whiff of nikto telling him he loves him.

tho i do think if they stayed in close proximity it rly could work out. rodion just has to wait for nikto to change his mind/learn to accept rodions care for him. this also depends on their lifepaths tho and how their squad stays together thru the years. a real actual complete not staying together nr breakup could literally be years in the future i just think of it. Oh and the whole awol thing creates tension in a new way speaking of a nr breakup.

[gremlinmodetweeker]

A picture of (nearly) the whole squad. Here we have König (back left), Horangi (front left), Roze (front right), and Nikto (back right).

This took a few days of picking away at it, and at some point I might go on to shade it, but I really enjoy how it came out. I particularly like how König looks shook by the camera while Nikto couldn't care less and Horangi and Roze are just hamming it up for the photo. I'll add another pic of Hutch at his desk soon.

[luci4theminorannoyance]

How would the Cod characters would react if gn!reader took the bullet for them?

Rudy, Alejandro, valeria, Nikto, and keegan.

a/n: sure!! I love taking requests tbh

Rudy:

-he didn’t even notice till he heard someone shouting for a medic. His heart literally dropped when he noticed you must have taken a bullet for him.

-dashed over as fast as he could to put pressure on the wound until you got help

-his eyes are brimming with tears, trying really hard not to shake and cry at the sight of you with a bullet in your side

-he eventually managed to get you to a hospital, and sat waiting for you in the waiting room for hours until Alejandro pulled him away

-got some uneasy sleep but stayed up late waiting for the call from the hospital to know if you made it or not

Alejandro:

-instantly pulls you out of the area of fire, holding you close as he can while he fumbles to try and find his med-kit in his gear

-he can’t get it out of his head on how it’s his fault, that his mistake made you have to take a bullet for him

-drags you away back to base and to the med bay, where two soldiers had to physically drag him away from you

-can’t shake his feeling of guilt no matter how hard he tries, even long after the incident when your fully recovered he still feels horrid about it

Valeria:

-she wasn’t too shocked.. but worried all the same. She knew this job was dangerous and she knew she had told her soldiers to save her at all costs.

-she just.. hadn’t expected it to be you. The person she cared for more than she plans on ever admitting

-she dashed over to you and ordered for soldiers to get you to a medic, not truly carrying if it meant losing.

-paced back and forth in the waiting room, not going home till she was perfectly sure you would be okay

nikto:

-couldn’t even comprehend it till you were on the gound with a bullet in your shoulder..

-why would you of all people; take a bullet for him, a person who couldn’t even stand his own face or anyone else around him

-dragged you to a hospital as fast as he could, feeling overly guilty about your wounds and perhaps even death being on his hands

Keegan:

-pulled you behind a broken wall as soon as he saw the bullet pierce your skin.

-he tossed off his mask and instantly started hap-hazardly cleaning the wound, tears brimming in his eyes and staining his eyeblack down the sides of his cheeks

-he couldn’t lose you. He wouldn’t. He wouldn’t be able to breath knowing his death was your fault

-ended up having to get dragged away by ghost once the paramedics put you on a stretcher

[fishsinsareacknowledged]

Nikto is not gentle, but he's not rude or mean either. He's strong, built for battle from birth to now. You can barely blame him when he tries to put his weight on you. A cuddly bear that tries to control his strength. Far too used to others who can stand a chance to overthrow him.

He's just a man. So he'll grip your hips tight, just his fingertips bruise into your skin. Ensnared with a snake around your neck, he's taking extra steps to make sure he doesn't choke you.

Mapping out the landscape beforehand, lightly grazing across your most important veins, making sure they don't catch on his nails. He reaches a hand up and his mask falls without resistance.

His hands are firm, moved to cover your eyes when he purrs into your cheek with his. Telling you to stay when he moves, turning off the lights to wander in the dark with you.

He'll return quickly, making sure to move slow and lead you to the bed. Walking in front of you to make sure nothing trips you. A hand that squeezed tight enough to pull at your heart.

"We will have dinner tomorrow?", he murmurs when he gets you to settle down with him. Patting down your head, heavy and slow.

"Where?", you hum out when you feel him scoot closer. Uneasy with the distance even when he's breathing close enough to mix with yours.

"Delivery, at home," the i miss you goes unsaid. He's craved you enough to starve himself, insatiable. He just wants a big meal with you tomorrow. Nothing else in his future plans other than lounging around all day, maybe letting you grab his credit card if he's feeling bored.

He'll sleep temporarily satiated. Healed just by consuming you. A prayer on his lips when you slumber before him, dead asleep and he'll hope no harm comes to you. Not from him, or any other.

[the141s]

hnfhdhndh...

nikto + small gestures of affection!!

[definitely in private to you after he's gotten comfortable with the idea of it.]

nikto that bonks his forehead against yours like a cat.

nikto that offers you a pinky to hold when you need it.

nikto leaving your favorite sweets in your room/office when he knows he's been scarce.

nikto that allows you to fidget with some of the straps of his gear. [side eyes the fuck out of everyone else who tries commenting on this-]

nikto that sits closer to you to feel your side press against his. ♡

[simp4konig]

I'm so normal about Nikto rn

Mildly nsfw?? Idk just a heads up

But just

Nikto, gripping her hips, thinking to himself: She's just being friendly- she's just being friendly- think pure thoughts

Y/N, sitting on his lap and holding his face hostage between her titties, thinking to herself: I wonder when he's gonna make the first move... do I have to make it if he doesn't? Oh my god what if I've been reading him wrong all along and he doesn't even like me??

Nikto: Well, maybe I am obsessed with you

Y/N: Well, maybe I like that :lipbite:

❗SUGGESTIVE CONTENT AND SOME DISTURBING IMAGERY BELOW THE CUT ❗ (No sex nor anything overly grotesque, but includes some descriptions of both). Readers are warned for suggestive content.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Well.

The title is perhaps a teeny, weeny little tiny bit misleading 🤏…

…

…Who am I kidding 💀,, it's as misleading as it gets LMAO

Because let's not kid ourselves here: Nikto is NOT "dense", NOT an "oblivious" man, NOR is he the type to be misinformed about someone's objective[s].

Nikto is a perceptive man — he's interrogated enough people to know what makes them tick, to distinguish lie from truth.

If somebody's intentions aren't innocent and they have ulterior motives, Nikto is always the first to know; it's his job to be informed, after all.

Hence, he notices the intonations of someone's voice growing or lowering, the imperceptible change in pitch, their nervous stutter as they unconvincingly concoct a lie, how their testimony does not align with the facts, and how they've suddenly become fidgety and shift from his scrutiny...

Hence, he recognises the subtle shifts in someone's facial expressions, can read between the lines of their non-verbal gestures, their change in behaviour, their overall unease expressed without them realising it, how they're giving themselves away no matter what they say…

Hence, he takes notices the way that someone fiddles agitatedly with something in their hands, how they pick at their nails in an almost panicked way or dig their fingernails into the skin of their palms, how they're biting their bottom lip or chewing on their cheek, how their smile is lopsided and doesn't quite reach their eyes, how they avert their gaze…

Nikto is anything but perceptive. He isn't oblivious — not "ignorant", not "unaware", and certainly not "stupid", or any other words synonymous with the previous — especially when it regards what people think of him.

How people think that he's disgusting.

How everyone avoids him like the Black Death, as if he's diseased and close proximity could kill you. As if his disfigurements were contagious, and the best bet would be to stay far, far away from the diseased.

Therefore, he's not oblivious that the words which you would whisper into the brocoli ears obscured by his mask are innuendo for something for more; he's not oblivious of the sexual nature of your hands absentmindedly caressing his lower abdomen, simply inches from his clothed crotch; he's not oblivious that your touches are quite risqué, that you would provoke him on purpose, that you would sit directly on his lap and feign innocence as you would flutter your eyelashes and smile ever so sweetly.

Nikto is perceptive. Very perceptive. And he's certainly not stupid...

...they just don't perceive your flirtatious actions as anything other than some joke.

So, he has rationalised your flirtatious behaviour as friendliness. As how you express your personal affection. Or, affectations.

Whatever it is that you're expressing, it must be a joke. Surely.

Since you're the Beauty, he's the Beast. But, unlike the Beast, he is a monster which cannot be redeemed. He's been cursed to suffer mortal purgatory, while immortal, demonic voices haunt him every hour, every minute, every second of every day. It's torture.

And you want to torture him some more by tormenting him with your unashamedly forward displays, your devilish seduction, tempting him into finally taking what he's been desiring ever since you arrived in his life.

How could you want him? Do you even want him?

No. You don't. There is no way that you do.

Because he's not talkative like some of the other operators, not hilarious like the colleagues who make you laugh, not affectionate like a lover could, not good company, not a good person as a whole.

He's introverted to a concerning amount, so silent that sometimes he appears deceased as he lies next to you on the nights you come over.

Maybe it all used to come naturally to him, but it's a struggle to feign his role as a functioning human being, so to actually be one? Sometimes he questions if he's more monster than man, as that role seems to be effortless.

Why would you want to be around him? What is there to like? Is there even anything to like?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

Perhaps this is all some heartless idea of a practical joke, some sort of sick sense of satisfaction arising in you to toy with Nikto's emotions. And, like a child bored of that toy, discard it in favour of a newer, better, prettier one.

Because what's there to like? Frankly, if he doesn't like himself — or selves — then how could he expect you to like him? All of him? Them?

This isn't affection, he would tell himself; either it's disingenuous and forced, or you're faking it for your own amusement.

Or... maybe it is genuine, and it isn't fake... but it's all an act of pity, since you feel sympathy for the lonely outcast and have some sort of strange moral obligation to a lunatic as fucked-up, ugly, and disfigured as him, whose been unable to have a meaningful relationship — platonic or otherwise — in years.

Especially right now, with you straddling his lap and cradling his masked face in between your breasts, he still can't wrap his head around it, and it's all incomprehensible.

At times, Nikto has considered that he's overthinking it, and that you have no ill intentions, and you're just innocent and clueless with how much you affect him.

With that in mind, for him to make the first move and jeopardise what he thought you thought was a strictly platonic friendship? He couldn't be more sorry, and would leave you alone forever and never speak to you again, even if it was physically painful and equivalent to ripping his own heart out and squeezing it until its contents popped — just for the pain and the heartache to go away forever.

...

And it would have been endearing if it wasn't so fucking frustrating.

Seriously. It's so fucking frustrating, and it's as if he's being wilfully ignorant or something, and doing it on fucking purpose.

He's delusional, yes, and you've always acknowledged the fact that more than a few screws were loose, but the entire mechanism, but it pisses you off that he continues to delude himself, rather than accept that your affection is genuine, and not some cruel joke.

You don't get bored of him, and won't. Ever.

Yes, he's not talkative, but you find solace in presence and relish the peace and quiet; yes, his sense of humour is nonexistent, but you don't need to be laughing when he still brings a loving smile to your lips; yes, he's introverted, but does that really matter? To you, you being the exception to his isolation is worth everything.

Do you care that he's not a good person? No. To some extent, neither are you — you're no saint yourself. Nikto's morals may not be grey, but smudged entirely, and his methods questionable…

…and? You don't have it in you to care. Because it has reached a point where Nikto genuinely cares for you, and you likewise for him, and his actions demonstrated what he could never convey through words; that he would never, ever hurt you. And that's enough.

As for him not being naturally affectionate?

Well. You've tried everything: guiding his hands onto your hips; sitting in his lap and straddling his lower half, arms around his neck; hell, even flashed your tits under the guise of the clasp of your unintentionally becoming undone, and, oh, could you please do it for me, Nikto? You aren't bothered by the nudity? Sorry. That was just a wardrobe mishap. You don't mind, right? You can touch all you like, because I don't mind.

But he doesn't respond. Doesn't fucking do anything. Just has his shoulders tense and arms loose by his sides, not reciprocating any touch, not touching you unless you give him permission, as if he's been lobotomised and can only take explicit orders.

You're exasperated. It's exhausting.

And, yes, his hands twitch with the gnawing itch to touch you; his body shakes with anticipation, antsy; his shoulders are tense, back straight as a plank, muscles flexing with restraint; and, of course, he's so fucking hard that he's almost nauseous.

But will he dare misinterpret your suggestive behaviour as anything more than flirtation, teasing, and risk jeopardising his whole friendship with his one and only friend? No. Not a fucking chance.

But how much more goddamn obvious can you be? What will it take for him to open his eyes and see that this isn't a game to you? That you're willingly giving yourself to him, because you want to? Because you want him?

One of these days, you swore, you were going to tear off his mask clean off his face and grab his jaw to roughly kiss him on his scarred, mishapen, and malnourished lips, only pulling away when neither of you can breathe, then look him dead in those steel blue eyes and confess that you don't give a shit what, who, or why he is, only that you want him, uncaring of the whats, the whos, and the whys — especially the "whos".

One of those days came; and that day was today, as you two were lounging on the bed, with your arms wrapped around his neck and legs straddling his lap.

No amount of initiating physical contact could entice him to touch you. You were at wits' end.

Sheepishly, you untangle your limbs from around his, and crawl to sit beside him, legs tucked up to your chest and arms wrapping themselves around your knees pitifully if it wasn't for the fire in your eyes.

"...Nikto."

Nikto's back straightens at the speed of light at your tone of voice.

...Oh. Oh God.

This is it, he thinks. This is the day where everything ends. Eventhough you're his everything and that without you he'll be nothing, you're going to tell him to go, to get off you, because you've realised that he isn't worthy of your time or your company. Or maybe you've discovered his obsession — you — and the shrine he keeps of your stolen "lost" possessions and prays to it as if by an altar, how he would worship the ground you work on if it wasn't so conspicuous, how you're the only reason he hasn't given up and put a bullet straight through his own skull so the voices shut up once and for all and—

"Do... you even like me?"

...What.

What.

What?!

Like you? Are you serious?!

He doesn't like you! He couldn't ever like you!

He adores you! Loves you! Worships you! But even then, no synonyms of these words would sufficiently convey his adoration, his unconditional love, his devotion. Would kneeling by your knees and ripping his beating heart out be enough? It still wouldn't. So he won't... mostly for your sake.

Struck dumb, dumbfounded, and utterly confused, he stares at you, his bloodshot steel blue eyes unblinking. Since he can see how your eyes are glistening, he's willing tears on your behalf, just so tears don't stain that pretty face.

Eventually, he says with complete certainty: "...Like would be putting it lightly."

"Then..."

You sniff, and Nikto flinches, but he otherwise remains stiff, not wanting to touch you and make your state worse.

"...then why won't you touch me? Don't you... find me attractive?"

Instantly, he states: "Because the touch of our hands would insult your body."

"You've... you've got to be fucking joking."

"No."

"Is... i-is this some— some kind of fucking joke?"

"...No."

Sadness dissipating, it transforms into incredulity, until you almost laugh. This is unbelievable. It would be endearing if it wasn't so fucking frustrating. You don't know if you want to punch him or kiss him.

"Nikto. Nikto Nikto Nikto. For crying out loud — I WANT you to touch me."

"We're… I'm fucked up. You should have... better."

"Haven't you ever considered that I like my man fucked up?"

Oh God.

Man. Not men. Man.

“You... still should have better.”

You snort in amusement. "What, someone more fucked up than you?"

You roll your eyes, almost out of boredom, but you don't miss how his fists clench, blood boiling as he's silently seething at the mere idea of someone else stealing you. Having you.

“Better is not an option. From my eyes, you're the best man for me out there.”

A wheeze leaves his broken vocal cords — a poor imitation of a human laugh.

But it wasn't a laugh. He isn't laughing. Miraculously, tears collect at the corners of his dehydrated eyes, and he thinks that he might cry.

His voice cracks as he asks uncertainly: “...Best?”

“The very best," you affirm with a smile.

He must be dreaming. This is all a dream. It's everything that he's been dreaming about. Maybe he's dreaming right now, and he'll wake up in a cold bed. Alone.

“Well… maybe I am obsessed with you."

"Maybe?"

"...I am obsessed with you."

"Okay."

"Maybe... we're so possessive that we'll never let you go. Never."

"Never?"

"Never."

“Well,” you begin, clucking your tongue, as if chastising him with the "tsk". “Maybe I like that. Maybe I like being wanted like that.”

"...You won't."

"I do. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even entertained the idea of being around you. If I was a rational person, I'd have ran for the hills. But? I'm not."

"..."

"Now touch me already," you say, unceremoniously snatching his idle hands and guiding them onto your body. "I'm yours. Don't wait for permission like some fucking dog."

You don't have to tell him twice.

"Yes."

*imma b real w u guys, i had no fucking idea what to name this: ...Oblivious Nikto? ...Ignorant Nikto? ...Delusional Nikto? ...Unaware Nikto?... eventually I settled with "dense", tho i STILL don't know if that's suitable?????

Anyways... sorry for the sort of misleading title??? It was not intentional 🥲. The only reason that it's addressed at the beginning is because I didn't want any misconceptions about what I think of Nikto. No, he is not oblivious, as I gone above and beyond to clarify at the start. 😭

A small portrait of my Nikto, from a sketchpage of me and my friends' face hcs of him that I will post sometime later (I prommy)

[towelenjoyer]

Nikto's sleep schedule is exceedingly simple to the point you barely even notice it even though you are the schedule. It's simple really he just has to stop with whatever's he'd doing when the time is right then find his lover and last but not least fall asleep on you

It's three simple steps, he doesn't really matter if it's the floor or the couch or the bed that's closer all he needs is to sleep with you

He never lets you sleep on the floor but he will

He lets you sleep on top of him if he's far too tired to get to a comfortable surface. His back to the cold floor, barely aware of how uncomfortable it should be after he had gotten used to sleeping on uncomfortable surfaces in his lifetime

Sure he'll wake up with an aching spine but did you sleep well lyubov'?
