#oc: niko

[puppetgearing]

do you ever think niko's insecure rambles might sound a lot more personal to wanderer ?

"do i even deserve love ? i did a lot of bad things, things that affected a lot of people... they got hurt because of me." he started "not a lot of people like me, even i don't like me... what's the point of a second chance if even you think you don't deserve it ?"

the only thing wanderer can do is to tilt his eyes, feeling as if the world was staring directly at him as he hear those words. it's not even supposed to be about him, and yet...

"... have you thought about what others thought ?"

niko glance up at him in confusion "huh--?" "it's your whole damn shtick, isn't it ? 'standing up for others' ? and if those people wanted you to have that second chance ? what, are you going to abandon your own ideal then ?"

'and what if i'm one of them ?' was something on his mind, but he can't bring himself to say it easily.

silence slip past niko's lips, he couldn't exactly respond to that. he pout as he hid his face onto his knees, feeling somewhat conflicted but also, strangely, better.

"exactly what i thought." wanderer sighed, taking off his hat. his hand hesitated for a moment before placing it on niko's head. niko barely had anytime to react to the action before getting the hat's brim pulled over his eyes by wanderer in a swift (and maybe accidentally, hard) action.

"the sun light is getting to you" wanderer scolded "you can hold on to it until you stop spilling nonsense about yourself."

...

"hey..." niko speaks up after a few minutes of silence.

wanderer clicked his tongue, but it's obvious there was no kind of snark in his tone. "what now ?"

"... your hat smells like crap."

...

"h-hey wait--! don't leave me with this thing--!!"

ok ok theres this idea that ive been in my head for a while i need to get it out UWAH, idk if its nsfw since its mentioned for the sake of clarity but ill tag it as nsfw just in case !

id like to think wanderer really don't like taking off his top, because he doesn't like it when people see his obvious puppet joints, specifically on the abdomen because it's the most obvious looking place to indicate that he's just a puppet, at least with his arm theyre cover and his knees are easy to miss (ofc he absolutely hate it when ppl stare at it too much too), not to mention some people are vile and would not hesitate to say how deformed he is or that he's weird. it's something he's absolutely insecure about and no matter the circumstances, you cannot make him take off his turtleneck (?) and that includes bed activity as well.

and ofc, niko knows this on a personal level.

now, he's not like insecure or feel miserable with his prosthetic leg or anything, it's just something he accepted happened to be a part of him at this point. but that doesn't mean he sometimes doesn't feel insecure about how he can't do some specific activities that he can do much easier before when he still had his other leg, it comes and go but it does happened. and dont even mention the amount of mean comment he get from other people about it, either because people still hate him because of his past actions (which they always used to justified their comments) or they just genuinely think he's weird.

if there are anyone in their circle that knows their pain as well as they do, it's each other. niko always told him he genuinely doesn't mind wanderer being a puppet, he doesnt mind all the visible joints and that if anything he likes it, not cause its unique, not cause it makes him special, but because it's just a part of him he's just born with and it doesn't make him any less of the person he fell for.

when wanderer finally feel comfortable enough to show that part of him, it's a sign of ultimate trust. and ofc niko embrace all of it. all of him. even parts wanderer thinks are his flaws.

because that, that is the person he loves, someone he never regret sharing a part of his life with
