#ravi panikkar x reader

[mvltisstuff]

hii!! i hope you’re well :) i haven’t seen anyone write a fic for ravi panikkar (he deserves the whole world fr) so i’ve got a request hehe, if that’s okay?

could you write a fic where reader and ravi secretly like each other but are both too awkward to admit it so the 118 always tease them and try to set them up together? maybe in the end they both confess their feelings to each other after one of them gets badly injured when attending a rescue?

im soo sorry if this is too long and feel free to ignore this request if you’d like <33 thank youuu 🫶

summary: request

ravi panikkar x reader

a/n: thank you for the request, i hope this does it justice and you enjoy :)) This WILL have a second part!! i just wanted to get something out for u today :))

everyone knew that y/n and ravi were pretty much the baby siblings of the rest of the crew at the 118. they all got so attached to each other, but for some reason, ravi and y/n always managed to strengthen the distance between them. it was like a family photo, each of them on other ends.

y/n came into the picture a bit after ravi did, instantly clicking with everyone. she was incredibly bright for her age and being so new, so she was perfect to have on the team. ravi was quick and selfless, making him another must-have when bobby was looking for new probies. he could already envision y/n and ravi being just like buck and eddie, or chim and hen.

however, bobby’s ideas were slowed down by their stubbornness. as soon as y/n walked into the station, she got nervous whenever ravi was near. the first time she laid eyes on him, it was evident on her face that she had a little crush forming. ravi, too, kept asking bobby and his other coworkers questions about the new girl, but only getting teasing replies back. y/n and ravi, out of their own anxieties, would exchange a couple sentences a day, and they would be on calls. they seemed like strangers when out of uniform, and none of the team liked it.

they’ve been plotting small things for weeks to get them to talk to each other, like bringing the team out for drinks, or dinner after a call. none of it seemed to work, because they both found loopholes of how not to be surrounded by each other. in buck and eddie’s eyes, it seemed like ravi needed a pep talk.

“hey, ravi!” buck called, while walking besides eddie into the kitchen. ravi was at the table, eating leftovers from dinner the night before. it had been a slow day, so he took the time he had to eat. “we need some advice.”

“yeah, we’re getting old, we need to know what it’s like these days from a younger perspective.” eddie adds, sitting down across from ravi and buck copies.

“okay, with what?”

“so, we both like these girls, and,” eddie turns to look at buck, who nods along. “we need your advice on how to get them. you know, times are always changing and girls like different things now.”

“you guys aren’t even that old-“

“oh, ravi, please,” buck groans. “i feel my knees deteriorating every day and eddie found a grey beard hair the other day.”

“oh, go on, i guess.”

“anyway, this girl, she’s so smart, like amazingly smart.” eddie starts, thinking of ways to describe y/n. “she’s got these eyes that hunt me down and she always has her hair up nice.”

“and mine, she is always on time and never slowed down. she’s passionate and so gorgeous.” buck includes as ravi just shoves more food into his mouth.

“well, what does she do?”

“they’re both firefighters. we met them at the…” eddie starts.

“the bar.” buck finishes for him.

“i play hard to get.” ravi starts spilling, and buck and eddie lean in closer. “the less attention you give, the more they want you. it’ll make it more exciting when they start making more moves. but, you also don’t want to get too attached because she might not want a real relationship. people just want sex these days and i don’t want to make things awkward because we both work at the same station. putting a gap between the two of you works, but it feels like shit, but at least you’ll feel like shit together.”

“mhm, so just ignore her all the time and do everything i can to avoid her?” buck questions, squinting at ravi.

“no, not exactly-“

“isn’t that what you do though?” eddie replies.

“sorry?”

“we’re not dumb, panikkar. your big feelings for y/n are so obvious that it’s the only thing we talk about here these days. do you know how much money i’ve lost because of you two?”

“that’s true, i win all the bets.” buck chimes in.

“i don’t have feelings for-“

“don’t start lying to us now,” eddie sings.

“i’m not ly-“

“you’re lying!” buck sings in the same tone as eddie.

“i don’t really like you guys!” ravi says, putting his fork down.

“well, that doesn’t matter, because you like y/n and she fancies you.” buck tells him.

“wait, did she tell you that?” buck and eddie sigh at his excitement.

“she’s polishing the trucks and she needs an extra hand. and, buck and i, we just don’t want to. and bobby said we can tell you what to do.” eddie says.

“no, he didn’t.” buck hands ravi a cloth and jerks his head in y/n’s direction. “fine. but if this backfires, its on you.”

as ravi heads down the stairs, he stands next to y/n and tosses the rag around nervously. “figured i’d give you a hand.”

hen and chim, on the other engine, turn their heads and stare at the pair, but buck and eddie come back and remind them to not bother y/n and ravi. they were like deer, once you make too much noise they run away.

“oh, thanks,” y/n smiles. “this is my least favorite thing to do.”

“that’s how i feel with cleaning the kitchen, it’s so boring.”

“i don’t mind the kitchen, actually.”

“i’ve been putting it off,” ravi laughs, smearing more polish onto the red, shiny vehicle.

“i can go do it for you, if you want.” y/n offers. ravi does not want her to, because it feels like they’re actually going somewhere now.

“uh,” he hesitates. “sure! only if you want.”

“it’s no problem.” y/n grins and starts making her way upstairs.

buck and eddie come stand next to ravi, shaking their heads in disapproval at the way things just happened.

stuff like this continued to happen for days, ravi would get too close, and y/n would run off. he didn’t understand why she would get so nervous when he’d come around. he figured he’d just give up, no use in getting the girl when she doesn’t want it.

ravi finally thought he had her right where he wanted her. he went upstairs to help her in the kitchen, after taking his chore again to try and help. but, the alarm blaring through the station quickly paused things, like always.

POV: You’re dating Ravi Panikkar 🩷

SWEET TREAT: RAVI PANIKKAR X BLACK PLUS SIZE READER

SUMMARY: It was Ravi’s first day back at the 118 and you decided to stop by and see him

You pulled the muffins out of the oven, removing them from the tin carefully and sitting them on the rack to cool.

You were gonna stop by the firehouse and surprise your boyfriend on his first day back.

Ravi had been through a lot these past few months, guilt weighing down on him for not being able to save a life.

Firefighting was a dream of Ravi’s and watching him be too fearful to get back out there was heartbreaking.

It took a lot for him to become comfortable enough to go back and you were with him every step of the way, holding his hand throughout the entire process. You were so proud of him and you wanted to show it so you decided to treat him to one of his favorites.

Once the muffins cooled you packed them away in a tupperware container before slipping on your shoes and heading out the door.

The drive to the firehouse was pretty short considering you lived close. You crossed your fingers praying that he was actually there and not out on a call.

You parked your car and got out walking toward the entrance.

As you rounded the corner you smiled brightly, his face being the first one you saw.

“Hi baby!” You walked up to him pulling him into a hug.

“Hey baby, what are you doing here?” He asked, pleasantly surprised.

“I wanted to drop off some muffins, a little treat for your first day back.” You handed him the container.

“You’re so thoughtful.” He smiled pulling you into a kiss.

“Well i don’t want to keep you from your job, enjoy the rest of your day baby.” You pecked him on the lips once more before heading back to your car.

He smiled watching you until you left his line of sight.

“Woah probie i didn’t know you had a girlfriend!” Buck shouted from the balcony.

“A gorgeous one at that, you got taste Ravi.” Hen smirked.

He chuckled shaking his head before getting back to work, cleaning up the fire truck.

A/N - Just a short little Ravi one shot cause that cutie doesn’t get enough love! 🌻

A/N: Hey guys! This is part of the Buddie August and I hope you like it!

Prompt: Recruit

911 Masterlist | Main Masterlist

Today would be your first day as a firefighter recruit at the Fire Station 118. You were so excited when you were told which station would be yours and couldn’t wait to meet your new colleagues. In the last few days you have become more and more nervous. Being a firefighter has always been a dream of yours and now joining a station is so exciting. You have heard that firefighters are like a family and hope you get along with the others there and you maybe build a good friendship.

As soon as you walked into the fire station and were greeted by a very friendly Captain, you knew you were going to like it there. Captain Nash went upstairs with you where your other colleagues were. Some sat at the table while someone else cooked something. When you walked into the room, some of them were already looking over at you and Bobby.

“Guys, listen, I already told you that a recruit is gonna join us today. And here she is.” Bobby announced with a smile. The others came closer and started to introduce themselves.

“I’m Hen. It’s great to finally have another woman here.” She said and you had to chuckle. The next ones to introduce themselves were Chim and Ravi.

“I’m Evan Buckley, but everyone calls me Buck.” He said with a smile.

“Hey, I’m Eddie and welcome to the 118.” Eddie greeted you and you smiled back at him. You all talked for a few minutes about the station and some random things. You quickly realized that they were all really good friends.

“Eddie will show you around and then we’ll have dinner later.” Bobby said and Eddie nodded.

“Come, let’s start downstairs.” You followed him downstairs, and Eddie showed you everything, from the firetrucks, where they have everything they need and the locker room. Eddie talked a lot, and you asked him a few questions too. He was really friendly and nice to you.

“If you ever need anything, you can always come to me. And there’s really no need to be nervous, everyone here is really great and I think you’ll like it here.” Eddie told you.

“Thank you.” You said with a smile and Eddie smiled back at you. After he showed you around, you had dinner. Shortly after you all finished dinner, you had your first call. You mostly stayed by Eddie’s side, trying to help as best as you could.

It’s been two weeks since your first day at the 118. They have all become good friends of yours, especially Eddie. You were mostly paired on calls with him and sometimes Buck was also included. Sometimes you also spend some time together after work or text each other.

On this day you were called to a major emergency. Captain Nash ordered that Buck, Eddie, Ravi and you would go into the burning building while Chim and Hen dealt with the people outside. Then everything happened so fast. When the fire was almost gone, you saved a young man and Buck helped you bring him out of there. Hen took care of him, but then he suddenly collapsed….and then you heard Hen say the time of his death. Buck put his hand on your back but you couldn’t look at him now, you just looked at the ground. Then he quickly pulled you into a comforting hug. You tried not to cry and looked out for Eddie as you pulled away. You saw him standing next to Bobby and giving you a small smile.

Later when you got back to the station, you walked straight to the bathroom. You needed to be alone for a minute. When you came out, Eddie was already waiting for you.

“Are you okay?” He asked worried and you just nodded, but he could tell it wasn’t true. Your shift was over and you all left the station. You could tell the others were worried and Buck nodded at Eddie. Eddie then turned to you and walked closer to you.

“Do you want to come with me to my house? Buck picks Christopher up from school and takes him to the zoo…so it would be just us.” He asked.

“Yeah, I would like that.” Eddie smiled at you and you walked with him to his car. You were really calm on the drive to his house. When you walked into his house, you both sat down on the couch and after a few minutes you suddenly started to crying. He pulled you into a hug and started rubbing your back.

“It’s okay. Everything will be okay …. I’m here.” He whispered a few times. He held you close and with every word he said you began to calm down a bit. After a while you stopped crying and pulled away.

“I’m just thinking what if I had found him sooner or-“You wanted to continue but were interrupted by Eddie.

“No, don’t do that Carino. It wasn’t your fault.” Eddie said in a soft tone. This was the first time he had decided to call you that and you wondered what it means.

“It’s just so hard to believe that, Eddie.”

“I know and it’s completely normal that you feel that way.” He reached for your hand and then started telling you how he feels sometimes and somehow you had the feeling that he was right and everything will be okay.

Hello, could I request prompt 5 of Hurt/Comfort for Bobby Nash x reader please

of course bestie! wrote this one on the plane and am pretty jet lagged now so it’s poorly edited lol

Pairings: Bobby Nash x GN!Reader

Warnings: injury, hospitals

Appropriate

No one informed you that becoming a firefighter would permanently affect your reflexes. Particularly the act without thinking ones. So it didn’t come to much surprise to you or your team when there was an emergency on your day off that you would attend to it.

Off-duty saves weren’t particularly rare and most of the time all that came out of it were a few confused bystanders wondering how a civilian knew exactly what to do, but this time you seemed to have gotten yourself in a predicament.

Instead of only the parties involved in the accident leaving the site in an ambulance, you joined them too.

After your heroic move, the car that had slipped in a precarious manner, fell ontop your leg and most definitely broke a bone. The on duty EMTs patched you up to the best of their abilities and sent you off to surgery.

When you awoke from that with new metal screws in your leg that would take time and a lot of PT to get used to, your friend and colleague Ravi was already by your side, ready to get you anything you might need.

“Ravi, what the hell,” you groaned, shifting in your bed. “How did you find out about this?”

“After your sister moved you switched your emergency contact to me, I’m flattered you remember,” he said sarcastically. “I’ve been here since before you went in to surgery.”

“Sorry, must be the drugs,” you said with a wave of your hand.

“So an off-duty save huh,” he chuckled. “What happened to think before you act, Panikkar?”

“Out the window. I just reacted,” you chuckled. “Frankly, now that it’s happened to me I’m not surprised, it’s practically instinct.”

“What did I tell you,” Ravi reached a hand over to squeeze yours. “I called the team to give them a heads up. I think you’ll probably be getting some visitors in the next few days before you go home.”

“Good, hospitals are so boring and it’s not like I can go anywhere,” you pointed to your recently casted leg. “God the next while is gonna suck ass.”

“Yep, it sure is,” Ravi agreed with you and you rolled your eyes. He knew just how to make you feel better.

—

As Ravi had warned you, the next few days were filled with visits from everybody on the team.

Chimney came by with Maddie and Jee-Yun first, bringing you a much needed good cup of coffee and a sweet little get well card decorated by the young Buckley-Han.

The next day Hen came over. She brought a deck of Uno cards and you shared a few very heated rounds of the game which may or may not have ended in something closer to 52 pick up.

Buck came by next, he had offered to pick up some comfort items from your home and you practically melted when he brought you your dad’s old and worn college hoodie you’d had since you were fifteen years old. You both also spent time ranking the injuries the team had sustained at the firehouse, the list went on to your colleagues and was highly debated for the next few days after that.

Lastly Eddie brought Christopher over and their favourite telanovella downloaded on Eddie’s laptop for you to all watch together (not without many interruptions from you still trying to figure out what the storyline was).

After about a week and a half at the hospital on bed rest, Ravi was finally given the ok to move you back to your apartment. It took a lot of coordination to find a way to get you to fit into his car with the giant cast on your leg, not to mention him practically having to drag you out of the building. You were strong, but for some reason not strong enough to carry whatever the hell it was they wrapped your leg with.

When you were finally at home in your — thankfully — first floor apartment Ravi ordered something for dinner and you both sat on your couch to enjoy it.

“Hey Ravi, can I ask you something?”

“Sure, what’s up?”

You stopped eating your food, and stared down at your take our container.

“Do you know why Bobby didn’t come visit me?” you said quietly.

“H-He didn’t?” Ravi seemed confused.

“No,” you shook your head. “Everyone else came just like you said, I was actually kind of surprised.”

“Yeah, I’m surprised too,” Ravi nodded. “You guys are close, aren’t you?”

“I mean I thought we were,” you shrugged and picked at your food. “Just a couple night before the accident we had dinner together a-and I had a really nice time I’m just…worried I did something wrong.”

“I don’t think you did anything wrong,” Ravi shook his head. “Just talk to him, send him a text, ask him to come over tomorrow night.”

“Isn’t that a bit presumptuous,” you raised a brow with a chuckle.

“You have a broken leg that’s casted all the way to your thigh, that’s not hot,” Ravi deadpanned. “Just text him.”

“Fine,” you pulled out your phone and typed up a text, having it proofread by your friend before sending it off. “And now we wait.”

—

The next evening you heard a knock on your door followed by,

“Hey it’s Bobby, spare key still in the same place?”

“Yep,” you called back, thankful he had asked. It was a nightmare to walk with a cast.

The lock of the door clicked and Bobby stepped inside with a a bag of what you assumed to be dinner, before closing the door behind him and locking it.

“Someone ask for room service?” he teased and you couldn’t help but raise your hand. It was definitely better than the hospital food and take out.

“I brought extras so I’m pack them up in the fridge and you just heat them up when you want to eat.”

You nodded at his instructions, but were perplexed by how normal he was acting.

“Hey Bobby, before we eat can we talk?” you asked.

“Yeah of course,” he said after putting the extra food in the fridge. “What’s up?”

“Why didn’t you come visit me at the hospital,” you blurted.

Bobby looked like he was expecting your question and sighed, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand.

“Would you believe me if I said it would have been too hard for me to see you in a hospital bed?” he asked.

“If that’s the truth,” you nodded.

“It’s just,” he paused. “I-After our dinner I wasn’t really sure where we stood. We never really talked about it, it just happened.”

You nodded, that was true, one thing had led to another and you didn’t have a lot of time to talk about what the implications of your dinner meant for your friendship.

“And I knew if I stepped into that hospital room I wouldn’t be able to be just your Captain. Or...just your friend.”

“Bobby,” you patted the seat next to you and encouraged him to come closer.

He did, taking his seat and watching as your took his hands in yours.

“I just wasn’t sure what was appropriate,” he whispered.

“I don’t care. I just wanted you to stay with me. I still do,” you said quietly, allowing your forehead to rest against his.

One of Bobby’s hands slipped out of your own and came to cradle your face.

“I’m so sorry I didn’t come.”

“You’re here now,” you smiled.

He leaned in the few inches further and closed the space between you, pressing a soft kiss to your lips.

“And I’m not going anywhere.”

Would you maybe write an Eddie Diaz x reader fic where she is cooking dinner and burns or cuts herself. Enough that they have to go to the ER and then just fluffy him helping her out after they get home...

night changes - e.d

summary: above :)

eddie diaz x reader

the fierce odor of the onions and smell of spices were overwhelming y/n’s nose, making her eyes water. she was chopping away at the onion, preparing a nice dinner for eddie, christopher, and herself. eddie was assisting, along with christopher who was sprinkling in some more flavoring into the pan. night like these were casual, but perfect. spending time with her two favorite people was the highlight of her days.

her relationship with eddie had its ups and downs, like any relationship might, but they were thriving now. both of them had steady jobs and were spending so much time together. they’d gotten extremely close over the years, and y/n spoke so gently to him and his son in ways that melted his big heart.

eddie adored her since the moment he met her, and after shannon died and dealing with the grief of that, y/n saved him. he saved her too, with her own experiences and feelings. they pulled each other out of the deep pits they were in.

eddie glanced over at y/n, with a wide smile as she spoke with christopher. her eyes were glossy, but the pure happiness across her face was very noticeable. her laugh was contagious, making the corners of eddie’s mouth rise up.

eddie’s phone rings, and looks at the name flashing across the screen. his friend, buck, had of course called and eddie handed the phone to christopher. “hi, buck!” he said into the phone, excitedly and wandered off to speak to him.

“i swear that kid loves him more than me,” eddie jokes.

“it’s the buck effect,” she replies. “makes everyone love him.”

“well i sure hope not you…” eddie says. he walks over to y/n, planting a kiss on her cheeks. she giggles lightly before demanding him to get back to whatever he was cooking before.

“oh, cmon, you know i love you the most,” and now it was her turn to move over and give him his own kiss. they didn’t have a fear of PDA in front of chris, but eddie was definitely more comfortable when he wasn’t around to see. christopher loves y/n, being the closet person he has to having a mother. she treated him like his own from the moment they were introduced.

y/n shuffles back to her own cutting board with her slippery hands from the wet veggies. she picks up the freshly sharpened knife to continue before she feels a massive slash on her hand. the knife had slipped out of her hand, landing directly on the other leaving a deep gash on the center of her palm. “ow, shit!” she yells out making eddie’s head turn like an owl.

he spots the deep cut on her hand, rapidly dripping out dark blood onto the cutting board and on her fingers. as an reflex, he grabs as many towels as he can and presses it against her hand. “woah, easy,” he calmly says under the pressure. “you alright?” he asks, placing his free hand on her cheek, swiping away a tear.

“i think so? i mean i just split my own hand open.”

eddie notices the blood sinking deep into the towels, almost completely covering the whiteness of the cloths. he pulls them off to examine the cut. the gash was incredibly deep, and unfortunately not something that could just be fixed by a bandaid. she hisses as he touches it lightly. “sorry, you’re alright,” eddie says softly, yet again. “i think we might need a trip to the ER, amor.”

“but i haven’t finished cooki-“

“you’re worried about cooking? you have a severe laceration to your hand!”

“mm, i love when you go all paramedic on me,” y/n smiles, and eddie shakes his head, concealing his own grin.

“chris! can you bring the phone in?” eddie yells to the other room. christopher comes walking in, handing the phone to eddie. “hey, man. wanna come hang out with chris? yeah, y/n cut her hand and we’re just gonna stop at the ER. she’ll be ok, i just don’t have anyone to watch him, also, make him dinner and don’t burn the house down, please!”

buck comes speeding over to be with chris, and y/n and eddie climb into his truck. “maybe i should get lights and a siren on this thing,” he says.

“eddie, i am not dying! at this rate you’ll get pulled over and i’ll bleed out in your nice truck.”

eddie rolls his eyes and pulls into the parking lot, then leading y/n in who is clutching her gushing hand. they’re guided into a section, as an intern comes over to sew up her hand.

she examines the stitches on her hand and holds it up to eddie, who hasn’t left her side for anything. he’s sitting next to her on the bed in the ER, his arm wrapped around her shoulder. “does it look cool?” she asks.

“sure, very cool,” he smiles and kisses her as the doctor cleans up, wrapping her hand up in gauze and sending them on their way.

the next few days, eddie was a complete clinger. he stayed by her side for anything she might need, because she was down a hand.

“eddie, i’m literally pouring cereal,” she says, sighing as he tried to take the box from her.

“he’s my own son, i can do it,” he smiles at her and leads her out of the way. he wanted to do everything for her because she does the same when he is hurt. it might be hypocritical, but he couldn’t care less. he wants to be with her when she does anything, incase something bad happens again and he isn’t there. she leads him out of the kitchen and onto the couch.

“babe, look at me,” she places her fingers under his chin and guides his face to look at her. “i am fine. it is just stitches, i didn’t break my arms. you don’t need to worry!”

“i know, i just want to help you. i feel bad, that’s all.”

“why do you feel bad? it’s not your fault my hand slipped.”

“i don’t know, i just didn’t like seeing you bleeding that much out of your own hands. it looked like a murder scene.”

“well, if you’re so desperate to help,” she smirks. “you can get in that kitchen and cook.”

eddie laughs and looks at her amusingly. the way she made the best out of a bad situation, and joked as she did it was the greatest gift he could’ve asked for. “fine, but it’s not my fault if it turns out awfully.”

“oh, don’t pity yourself. practice makes perfect,” y/n concludes and they head back into the kitchen together.

IMPERFECT FOR YOU: CHIMNEY HAN X BLACK PLUS SIZE READER

SUMMARY: You and Chimney both like each other and he wants nothing more than to be with you but you're a bit hesitant. He's determined to take away all your doubts and make you his.

Warning: mentions of fetishizing and insecurities, mentions of bad past relationships

Part two: here

A week had gone by when you found out about the bridge collapse, you had been out of town taking care of a sick relative and you were so preoccupied with that, that your phone had been an afterthought. You called Athena the day you arrived home just to check in and she was the one that informed you of the incident. Everyone was still in the hospital recovering, they were hurt but they were alive.

To say you were scared when you found out would be an understatement, you were absolutely mortified. You first met the members of the 118 through Hen, you spent a lot of time with her when she was in med school, often running into her during your long shifts at the hospital. She had quickly become a good friend of yours and introduced you to the rest of the team and from then on they were like family to you. They all meant a lot to you and you couldn't imagine losing any of them.

After the call you quickly threw on your shoes, grabbing your car keys and rushing out of your apartment.

Once you arrived at the hospital you ran up to the front desk.

"Hey Brit, the 118 are still here right? Could you give me their room numbers?" You asked the redhead behind the computer.

"Of course, one moment." She nodded, a look of concern on her face.

You stood there anxiously drumming your fingers against the desk, Athena told you they were fine, you knew they were fine but you just had to see it for yourself.

Once you got their room numbers you headed to Hen's first, shaking your head as you watched her lace up her shoes.

"Going somewhere?" You leaned against the doorframe a small smile on your face.

"Hey you." She stood pulling you into a hug.

You relaxed in her hold for a moment.

"I don't think you're supposed to be leaving so soon." You pulled back raising a brow suspiciously.

"Y/n it's been a week, i feel fine, i just wanna go home." She huffed.

"Did you get cleared by the doctor?" You asked.

"Noooo but i'm technically also a doctor, and i say i'm fine." She shrugged.

"Nice try, i'll get the doctor in here and she'll be the judge of that." You led her back to bed.

"And don't even think about running away, i'll track your ass down." You warned.

"Yes ma'am." She held her hands up in surrender.

After getting the doctor for Hen you made your rounds through the hospital, checking in on everyone and fussing at them for their attempts to speed up their releases, claiming that they were fine. They could be so stubborn sometimes, something they all had in common.

You smiled gently as you got to Chimney's room, he was sound asleep, the most peaceful you'd ever seen him.

You had fell for Chimney shortly after you met him, instantly reeled in by his cute face and witty personality.

You'd sort of been dancing around each other for months now, more you than him.

Chimney had made it pretty obvious that he wanted to be with you, though he didn't outright say it he definitely tried to make it known.

Whether that be the multiple attempts to get you to go out with him for drinks, to the movies, or a new restaurant that he wanted to try, just the two of you, or the awkward but very adorable attempts at flirting where he'd compliment your outfits or how you styled your hair that day.

You kept him at arms length though, scared to pursue something more.

You had your fair share of bad relationships almost all of them consisting of the same thing. Men that loved you in private but were ashamed to be seen with you in public, some that only saw you as a way to fulfill their fetishes, others using you as an experiment, just to be able to say they'd done it. You had been through every shitty experience under the sun dating as a bigger woman and it left a bad taste in your mouth, so much so that you had pretty much sworn off dating forever.

You knew Chimney wasn't the type of guy to do any of those things to you, he was way too sweet but in the back of your mind you couldn't help but have your doubts.

You walked over to his bed side sitting down in the empty chair, pushing the damp strands of hair off his forehead.

His eyes fluttered open and he instantly smiled upon seeing your face.

"You're gonna make me grow grays Chim, every time i run into you here you're knocking on death's door. Try to get less severe injuries yeah? Maybe a sprained ankle." You joked.

"Oh how i wish it were that simple." He laughed, voice hoarse.

"Let me go get you some water." You stood.

He caught your wrist in his hand just before you could walk away.

"Water can wait, just stay with me for a while, please?" His eyes softened.

"Of course." You melted.

A/N - This is my first 9-1-1 fanfic yayyyy, i've been wanting to write for Chimney for a while now and i'm finally getting around to it. Part two coming very soon and i also planning on writing for more characters so be on the lookout! 🌻

[twistnet]

being romantic with their so [ 9-1-1 ]

⋯ CHARACTERS ; evan buckley, eddie diaz, chimney han, hen wilson, bobby nash + ravi panikkar

⋯ EVAN BUCKLEY

has the idea of romance being something along the lines of taking one out to dinner, until he realizes that you can make simple romantic moments in the comfort of your own apartment -- something that relaxes him instantly as he doesn’t feel like he’s putting on a show. so, some good takeout, a good movie or video game, and some good alcohol -- he’s all set for the night

⋯ EDDIE DIAZ

loves dancing with you. not a big fan of going out and dancing, or dancing in front of others in general. but he does enjoy dancing around the kitchen or house with you every chance he gets. there doesn’t even need to be music, he will always swoop you into you arms and take off down the hallway -- usually with christopher cheering the two of you on

⋯ HOWARD ‘CHIMNE’Y HAN

much like bobby, shows his love through cooking and culture. these two things are very big to him, considering where he is from. and absolutely loves showing you different aspects of his culture or different foods that you would traditionally see

⋯ HEN WILSON

is pretty spontaneous when it comes to giving into romance but loves to spent the night in with you and watch a movie. maybe it’s something you’ve watched a dozen times, or something new -- who knows! now, if she’s wanting to go out, the two of you go to your favorite restaurant and she gets the spend the night spoiling you

⋯ BOBBY NASH

shows love through cooking. you know that saying “cooking is the way to the heart”? bobby takes that to heart and loves cooking for you. he’ll make all your favorites, or even surprise you with something new to try. oh, but you ask to cook with him? chef bobby is more than happy to take you under his wing and show you some secrets of his

⋯ RAVI PANIKKAR

loves reading with you. it’s something he quite enjoys and finds it to be super calming, even after a stressful shift. he’s not picking on what to read, but science-based books are his favorite as he loves learning something new. and oh! if you ask him to read to you, he’ll melt into a puddle

[libraryofloveletters]

Congrats very well deserved!! My request is Ravi Panikkar x reader with the prompt “do you always smell this good?” Very excited to see what you come up with <3

thank you so much!! // prompt: “do you always smell this good?”

---- 

A landslide at the beginning of your 24 hour shift was just as much of a shitstorm as you’d imagine. 

Everyone was tired and exhausted, returning even more so. The last 12 hours had been horrible; some of you were part of search and rescue, some of you at triage and the rest of you helping with the left over tasks. 

One by one, you all managed to find your way to the shower and into clean clothes. Bobby was about to make dinner when Athena showed up with pizza for everyone. 

You were sitting on the couch, waiting for the last few people to get out of the showers because as Bobby always said; we eat as a family at the 118.

Ravi sits beside you and you rest your head on his shoulder. 

The two of you had been friends since he joined the 118 but now that you had the same shift, you hung out more often. 

“How you feeling?” the man asks, his arm slung around your shoulder. 

“Fine, tired. Maybe sleep deprived because you smell really good, do you always smell this good ? I swear you don’t.. no offence.” 

Ravi laughs, “I borrowed some of Buck’s body wash, I ran out and didn’t know. It’s like mint and eucalyptus or something like that.” He shrugs. 

“Maybe I’ll have to ask Buck for the brand because you smell really good.” 

“Thanks,” he chuckled. “So do you but then again, you always do - like coconut and vanilla.” 

“My body wash.” you laughed, “borrow that one next time, we’ll see how it suits you.” 

[ladypanikkar]

Brother in Arms

Ravi watched over the last nine months as you swelled with pride over your child growing inside of you. When the day came to deliver, he was over packed, bringing everything he could think of to make you as comfortable. He rubbed your shoulders and back, holding your hand as you pushed. He watched the clock as you were getting closer to bring your child into the world. At 9:14 in the morning, your little girl let her first shirl cry, with a heavy wheeze. You fell back onto the bed, skin sweaty and pale, a rush of joy washing over you. Ravi felt the tears of joy burning his eyes. “She’s here babe, you did so good.” He whispered into your ears.

He heard the doctor and nurses whispering. “She needs the NICU.” “Call Cardio.”

“What’s going on? Where is my baby? Ravi, where’s my baby?” You asked, grabbing your husband’s hand. Ravi, watching your heart rate on the monitor, jumping up and back down. Your oxygen and blood pressure are falling down to the depths. Before he could do anything, he watched as your eyes rolled back in your head and you wheezed, your back arching up and your muscles tensing as you screamed in pain. Alarms blared as one half of the nursing team raced to you, another half handled your child and one nurse pushed Ravi out of the room, ignoring the tears of guilt on his face. There was nothing else to do except walk out to the waiting room where all of his shiftmates from the 118 were.

Everyone stood up as Ravi made the corner, Buck with a ‘it’s a girl balloon’ tied around a flower vase with carnations, and Albert with a big teddy bear taking up the seat next to him. Athena was the first to speak, as everyone stood in silence, all gathering that someone went horribly wrong. “You okay baby?”

Ravi shook his head as tears completely blurred his vision, his shoulders shook and his knees felt weak. Athena hugs him tight, and he feels the weight of Bobby on his back hugging him, and then Eddie, Hen, Chim, Albert and Buck hugging their brother tight in his time of need.

You had a massive aneurysm in your brain, with your calcium and magnesium totally giving out. Your daughter was born with premature lung development and heart, leaving her with an oxygen tank and a close watch by doctors in the NICU. Ravi sat in a rocking chair, holding his tiny child with a big head of black hair like her daddy and her mommy’s nose. This skin-to-skin contact thing was weird, just him in a little private room, holding his daughter on his bare chest, hoping that it was doing something to help her. He looked at her with so much hope and fear and worry, as her eyes opened for a moment. “Hi Ms. Layla. It’s daddy.” He choked up. Layla was one of those names that stuck out the most to you two. You thought that it was so pretty. Layla was actually the name of an auntie Ravi was close to as a child. Layla Catherine was already a little fiery spirit. Just like her mama.

As she worked on her bottle the size of his pinkie, Ravi lied to himself out loud. “Your mommy is very sick right now, but the doctors and her are working very hard so she can meet you.” Ravi quietly said to his daughter. He kissed the top of her head, watching her fall back asleep with the bottle hanging out of her mouth. “I don’t like to make promises, but daddy promises that mama is going to be alright and you’re going to see her really soon.”

Layla came home two weeks later with a clean bill of health, with Ravi’s wife still in the hospital, floating in and out of the woods. Medical bills sat on the table. God, this healthcare system was all sorts of fucked-up. Your insurance basically gave you the middle finger, and the insurance the fire department used only covered basic care and select surgeries. The numbers kept climbing, leaving Ravi totally lost, scared and beyond anxious. The bed, despite getting up every hour to watch over his daughter and make sure that she was breathing, was far too cold without you there to hold on too. He didn’t like to sleep now anyways. He woke up quickly after a nightmare of either something at work going down or losing his wife. The team did everything they could to help. Athena took Layla out for a few hours so Ravi could go on an errands run without a small child attached to him or go see his wife in the hospital, Buck and Bobby cooked up some meals that he could warm up quickly.

Athena started calling herself Ti-Ti as a fun grandma nickname when talking to Layla. “Ti-ti’s here! Where’s my Layla?” She would announce walking into the house, usually with a bag full of toys and a home-cooked meal from Bobby to last a few days. Despite doing everything he could, Ravi felt helpless actually. He felt so guilty that he couldn’t speak up that his wife was in danger, that something was happening. He felt like he was taking advantage of everyone. He watched as nurses checked every day on your cognitive function and motor skills, working to get you home. Ravi just had to smile for you. He just pushed everything down, putting every thought he had on the back burner.

As his daughter turned a month old, Ravi started to think harder about the future. He could move back in with his parents, take an offer from his father and work as his bank. He didn’t like the taste of nepotism very well. Your parents were begging for them to let you move in and adjust with them. You told Ravi outright once to never let that happen. He was going to keep that promise. Ravi went back to work, leaving his daughter with his sister. He needed the money, picking up shifts as much as he could.

“Panikkar,” Bobby said after a call. “Meet me in my office.” Ravi ran in his head what he did to get himself into Captain’s office. He ran upstairs and sat down in the chair, his leg couldn’t stop shaking. He knows that his blood sugar has to be fucked, but he needs to keep the money in tact to afford diapers and formulas and keeping his wife in the damn hospital. “I know that you’re going through a lot right now, Ravi.” Bobby said, handing him a little peppermint from a glass bowl. “So the department, EMS, and police, and part of city hall, we got together and did something for you.” Bobby opened a drawer and pulled out a white letter envelope. “When we made that oath to serve this city, we also made it for our brothers and sisters in the field. This is all for you, because you might be under me, but you are still like a son to me, and everyone out there is your brother.” Ravi looked at the envelope, with only his name written in cursive by one of Booby’s nice pens. Bobby smiled, “Go ahead, open it.” Ravi flicked open the envelope, revealing a check with way too many zeroes.

To the order of Mr. Ravi Panikkar- 3,500,000 and 0/100 dollars

Memo: For Y/N and Layla

“Captain, I can’t, I can’t take this.” “It’s already applied to your bank account. The chief has been fighting with the insurance to take it and believe that it’s legit. There should be enough to pay for everything and a little extra.”Bobby adjusted himself in his chair, bringing himself forward. Ravi, for the first time in a month, broke down. Truly broken down, his shoulders shaking and a large weight being lifted and throw to the darkest depths.

Bobby got up and wrapped his arms around Ravi, sitting down in the chair next to him. “It’s okay, let it out, I’m here.” “Tha-Thank you so much.” He’s got to look absolutely pathetic right now, but he doesn’t give a shit. He could take care of all of the bills, and get caught up on the payments. Hell, he can put the down payment on the house the two were looking out

You came home later that month, taking time to actually see your daughter. You still had some memory issues, and still healing from childbirth. What mattered to you is that you were home, and able to watch your daughter grow and see the stress off of your husband. Layla looked at you, and smiled, giving a giggle. “You okay babe?” You looked at him.

You saw the tears in his eyes and the genuine smile on his face. “Yeah, Yeah I’m okay.” You waved him over, as he brought his coffee and you a cup of tea. “Is that daddy?” You asked your daughter. “Daddy is very happy that mommy’s home, and so’s mommy.” Ravi kissed the top of your head, and tickled his daughter’s tummy, as everything went back to the way it was supposed to be.

Ravi (9-1-1): Holiday Cheer

Word Count: 2,398

Pairing: Ravi Panikkar x Buckley!Reader

Summary: Reader’s enthusiasm about the holidays is contagious when Ravi can’t seem to find his holiday spirit.

Minor spoilers for season 5 of 9-1-1!!

Quick Note: I know Ravi is new but I love him so so so much. He’s so sweet and I really hope we get to know more about him. I jumped off of his conversation with Hen from 5.10 “Past is Prologue” where he mentions spending time in hospitals as a kid, so if you haven’t seen that, I mean I just kind of explained it but like, that’s where that comes from. Merry Christmas and enjoy!

You come barrelling into the 118 with armfuls of Christmas decorations, a smile on your face and a Santa hat on your head, your big brother trailing behind you with a stack of boxes. They’re full of more Christmas decorations, of course. You’re a flurry of giggles and energy, Michael Bublé playing from your back pocket as you walk.

Buck never understood your fascination with Christmas, even though it’s his doing. Not that he knows that. Every year, he’d send you super elaborate gifts from his adventures, complete with a crazy story about what he had to do to get it for you. Some of the stories are outlandish and clearly exaggerated, but they’re your favourite thing.

“Hey, Mini Buckley, you’re in good spirits today,” Hen laughs, surveying the Christmas stuff in your arms. When she lays eyes on your brother, she laughs again. “You alright there, Buck?”

“No,” he groans, clearly carrying one too many boxes. Hen grabs two of the five boxes, and Buck lets out a small breath, as if he’s just remembered to breathe. “Thanks.”

The three of you make your way upstairs, meeting an exasperated looking Bobby, as well as a very focused Eddie, and an even more focused Chimney. Eddie and Chimney are engrossed in a Christmas edition of monopoly, which Bobby seems to be refereeing.

“Check it,” you say, dropping the decorations beside the game board. “Merry Christmas, you filthy animals.”

Eddie and Chimney forget the game right away, picking through the decorations like little kids. Bobby sighs in relief, slipping away from the table and into the kitchen. Buck and Hen put the boxes down beside you and Buck joins Eddie and Chimney. Hen rolls her eyes playfully, turning to you.

“You think you got enough?”

“No. First of all, Christmas is my favourite. Second, the toy drive has to be perfect! I have this list somewhere…” you trail off, looking for your list. “There it is!” You pick it up, checking off ‘decor unload’.

“Oh no,” Hen sighs.

“What?” Chimney looks up, laying eyes on the clipboard in your hands. “Why does the Buckley have the clipboard?” His eyes widen slightly as he stares.

“…I’m in charge of the toy drive?”

“Standard rule, Buckleys should not have clipboards at any time,” Chimney states as if reading from a rule book.

“Ha-ha,” your brother says snarkily.

You scoff and look back at your clipboard. There’s enough to keep everyone busy between calls, but not so much as making the day overwhelming. You quickly check off the decorations you have, making sure nothing is missing.

“Oh my god,” you gasp. “I forgot the star for the tree.”

Everyone tries to reassure you that it’s fine, but you’re not so sure. That was the one thing that was super important to you as a kid. The tree had to have the perfect star. Fuck. You haven’t even started the toy drive and there’s already things going wrong.

“Hey guys, what’s going on?” The new voice grabs your attention, and you glance over. Ravi. How long has he been there? He definitely heard you sulking about forgetting the star. Damn. The one person you don’t want to embarrass yourself in front of.

“Hi Ravi,” you say softly. “We just unpacked the decorations for the toy drive. I, uh, you think you could help? Set up, I mean.”

“I guess.” He half-smiles, but his eyes look sad.

“Thank you!” Your smile seems to be contagious. He looks happier, but you don’t have time to analyze when Bobby asks about timeframe.

Soon enough, you’re ordering everyone around to decorate and set up the tree. Buck and Eddie are dragging around massive boxes for donations, and Chimney and Bobby are setting out some baked goods. Hen is on a ladder, hanging garlands.

“Alright everyone, we’re looking good so far. Remember, we are red, gold, and white. Green is only for trees and garland, there is a no silver policy. And only warm white! If I see bright white, you’ll be seeing stars because I’ll be kicking your ass.”

Eddie and Buck pause as they finish setting up the last donation box. They look at each other, and Buck points at you.

“Is this what I was like with the clipboard?”

“Yes.”

Twenty minutes of decorating goes by uninterrupted, and you’re currently trying to reach a branch that’s about three inches away from your fingertips. Someone slips behind you, taking the ornament and hanging it on the branch. You turn around, coming face to face… well, face to chest, with Ravi. You glance up, only to find the lights of the tree sparkling in his dark eyes.

“It looks really good,” he says softly. You notice how glassy his eyes are, and you can hear the strain in his voice. His throat is tight and he swallows nervously.

“Thank you.” You put a hand on his chest, making him look down at you. “Ravi…” you pause, not sure if you should ask. “Are you okay?”

“I-“

He’s cut off by the alarm. You take his hand and pull him toward the truck.

The call is in and out. A man who cut a Christmas tree and accidentally dropped it on himself instead of away. Just some bruises and a few scratches, nothing too serious.

After sending the man in the ambulance, and reminding all the nearby tree-shoppers to push the tree away while sawing and to ask for a hand if they need, your team is free to pack up. Nothing too serious happened, no damage, no tragedy, thankfully. A Christmas miracle if you’ve ever seen one. You start to get lost in thought, and make your way over to a familiar face.

You sit on the back of the ladder truck, beside Eddie. He’s taken on this strange mentor role for you, he doesn’t have the same brotherly role as Buck, but he also doesn’t father you the way Bobby does. Yet he always sees through your facade of pretending nothing is troubling you.

“What is it?”

“What? I didn’t even do anything,” you respond.

“You look like a lost puppy,” Eddie teases.

“Every time,” you sigh. “Ravi seems sad. I don’t think he’s having the best Christmas.” You frown, looking over at him. Ravi is putting backs back in the truck, a frown on his face.

“Go talk to him. It’s the start to getting closer with him.”

“How did you-“

“It’s so obvious. Go!” He practically pushes you toward Ravi. You stand, glancing back at Eddie. He raises an eyebrow.

“Okay, okay.”

You approach Ravi, picking up some gear and helping him put it away. He gives you a thankful smile, and the task is finished quickly. You watch as his eyes settle on something behind you, and when you turn you see a family holding hands with matching Christmas hats. He’s sad about Christmas.

“Ravi, are you okay?”

“Yeah,” he whispers, shaking his head slightly as if he’s clearing away the fog. “I’m fine.” He leans against the truck, hand on the latch of the compartment you just closed.

“You’re not.” You put your hand over his, looking into his eyes. “I know you well enough to know that something is bothering you.”

He pauses, as if trying to decide what to do. It seems like he’s debating whether or not to open up, and you interlock your fingers with his, trying to let him know you’re there.

“I don’t know,” he sighs, standing up straight. “Christmas has always been hard for me, my family never had much money with all my medical bills, and my dad was always working overtime to make more money. Don’t get me wrong, we tried, and I mean the nurses and doctors did their best to make sure i had a Christmas. I just… never really associated Christmas with joy.”

“I’m so sorry, Ravi.” You wrap your arms around his torso, hugging him tightly. He returns the hug and you sigh gently. How can you turn around his perspective on Christmas? “You know, Christmas was never great for me either. The only thing that made it worth it was the epic story and cool gift that Buck sent me.”

“Really?”

“Really. I create the magic that I never got to experience, so that kids like me can have a merry Christmas.”

“I never thought about it like that,” Ravi says, watching your face as your eyes follow a couple of birds in the sky. “That’s why you need this toy drive to be perfect?”

“Yeah.” You nod, smiling slightly. “Seeing other kids enjoy Christmas kind of makes me forget how much I hated it when I was younger.”

“I guess I could always make new traditions, couldn’t I?”

“Now you’re thinking,” you laugh, knocking his shoulder gently.

“Everything packed?” Bobby walks up to you and Ravi, and the two of you give him a nod. “Alright everyone, back to the station. We’re going to have to really crunch that decorating, we’re running short on time.”

Everyone piles into the engine, talking and planning their Christmas decorating or shopping. You watch Ravi, who still seems to feel out of place.

“Hey, Ravi! How do you feel about Michael Bublé?” You hold up your phone and hit play on the Christmas album. Buck, Hen, and Chimney sigh, while you, Eddie, and Bobby start singing along to the music that fills the inside of the fire truck. Ravi joins in, and you bump his shoulder with yours as you sing goofily. He smiles.

Before long, you’re back at the station, and everyone has settled back into their decorating groove. Except for someone, who seems to be missing.

“Has anyone seen Ravi? I need his help with this.” You look around, but Ravi is nowhere to be seen. “His coffee run time doesn’t check out with his absence,” you pout.

“He went out a while ago,” Eddie tells you. “Said he needed to pick up a thing or something. Probably not coffee, considering he’s been gone a while.”

“Thanks,” you say, turning away.

Where did he go? The toy drive starts in less than ten minutes and he’s not here. You know he got his donations already, he was so excited to give back to the community. That’s one of the things you like so much about him, he’s so sweet and caring.

You lean against a table, crossing your arms as you survey the station. It looks really good. The whole building radiates Christmas, and the posters that are plastered to the firetrucks even match the colour scheme you chose for the rest of the decorations. When your eyes drift to the tree again, you sigh. Damn star. You always forget something.

“Alright guys, doors are opening in five,” Bobby calls out from upstairs. Everyone rushes back to work, wanting to put last minute touches on their stations. You just frown. The star thing is really bugging you. And one of the reasons you put so much into this isn’t even here.

The back door swings open, drawing your attention, and in rushes Ravi. A smile breaks onto your face. He practically runs over to where you’re leaning and puts a box on the table.

“I hope I’m not too late,” he pants, reaching for the box. He opens it and pulls out an antique gold star to put on top of the tree. You gawk at it and him for a minute before breaking into a smile and flinging your arms around him.

“Ravi, I could kiss you right now!” You freeze, stepping back and glancing at him. “I mean- I, I could. I would! I- not like that, well yes like that, but uh, I shouldn’t, you- I,” you stutter.

He takes your face in his hands and silences you with a kiss. It’s soft and sweet, but filled with desire. And when he pulls away, he presses his forehead to yours for a second. Your hands rest on his chest, his hands still on your face. And you both laugh.

“Took long enough,” Chimney teases with a chuckle, patting your back as he walks by. You and Ravi pull apart, but you take his hand, not wanting to lose the contact.

“Hey, we better get this thing on the tree!” You look over your shoulder, searching for your brother. “Evan,” you shout. He looks up with a scowl, probably because you called him Evan. Whatever. “Put this on the tree!” You whip out your clipboard and check it off, finishing your list once and for all.

“Wow,” Ravi laughs. “This looks… amazing.” He glances at you, watching your face as you supervise your brother putting the star on the tree. He notices you don’t have a hat on and plucks a Santa Claus hat from the box of them for your colleagues to wear when you open the doors. He puts it on your head. “And now you look even more amazing.”

“Thanks,” you say with a smile, feeling your face heat up slightly. “Ravi that star is perfect. Thank you.”

“I know how much this means to you, I couldn’t not get one.”

You pop onto your tiptoes and kiss his cheek. And right as you whisper another thank you, Bobby opens the doors and the toy drive starts. As families flood in with donations and Christmas spirit fills the air, Ravi keeps smiling. The two of you stand behind a table, accepting donations and wishing people happy holidays.

It’s safe to say you’ve spread the cheer to Ravi, who looks truly happy for the second time today. As the rush of the toy drive slows down, he puts an arm around you and pulls you to his side.

“How would you feel about being my date to the Christmas party next week?” Ravi smirks down at you and you glance up with a smile.

“That would be amazing.”

“Perfect,” he says, pressing a kiss to your forehead. “You know, it’s nice to feel festive for a change.”

You nod, wrapping your arms around his torso. Resting your head on his chest for a second, you let out a content sigh. You’ve wanted to be able to do this for a long time. Ravi embraces you and you look up, arms still around your boy.

“Merry Christmas?”

“Merry Christmas,” he murmurs with a grin, kissing you once more.
