(I’m not confident enough to try and write for eugene. Yet.)
I love Tangled the Series! It's so nice to see someone write for Varian 😭
Could you possibly write some fluff for him unknowingly befriending a mermaid (aka reader) that snuck onto land to see cool human stuff? He has a hunch something is different about them but Varian can't put it together till a big reveal...
I don't mind if it's platonic or romantic, I just think Varian is really cool ^^
AAAA so sorry for the late response, also heads up this isn't the full fic I'll continue it in another post. I'll make sure to reblog this post with part 2! all in all thank you for your patience :,>
Fishy Friend | GN! Merperson Reader x Varian | Two Shot
Swishing in the sea and taking care of errands, Y/N was quite a busy merperson. They never had time to themselves or even time to explore the unknown. Not until one day…
“What’s got you so quiet, Y/N?” Asked their mother “Usually you’re up in arms about the ridiculous schedule the king gives you.”
Y/N’s mother was preparing herself for some sort of angry response from them, like the King of the Sea had lost his head once more by giving them some sort of ridiculous quest. After all, Y/N was their best scavenger.
“…I don’t understand, our king called me in today to tell me I had the day off?” Y/N replied, with a perplexed expression. “He must’ve really lost his mind this time!”
“If he heard you, Y/N…” Mother smiled
“Like that old head can hear anything anyway.” They replied, but then they were hit with the realisation that they were free for today.
Free. to do whatever they wanted.
“Hey, mom? Are you willing to hold down our home for today, I want to go to-”
“Sweetie, you get a day off and you’re spending it by going to the surface?” Their mother immediately knew what Y/N was plotting before they even got to finish their sentence.
Y/N simply smiled and hugged their mom “I’ll be back before you know it. Love you mom.”
“Be safe, and don’t get caught.” She sighed as she embraced Y/N back.
══════════════════
As Y/N approached the surface, they looked around for anyone who could catch a glimpse of them. And when the coast was clear, Y/N finally took their first steps on land. When the water dried from their skin and scales, they magically had legs!
But they were also very naked, so they quickly wore hydrophobic clothing, made by special material only found in the sea.
“Corona Kingdom, I think it’s called.” Y/N murmured to themselves. “It’s not as vast as the sea but it seems like a pretty cozy place with welcoming people, according to my mother.”
Looking at their map, they had to go through a place called “Old Corona” before they could explore the main kingdom.
Upon arrival, they were greeted by a huge explosion erupting from a nearby laboratory. They ducked on instinct when something flew near their head.
“Ugh, Varian did it again” A random villager chirped up
“Who?”
“You’re new here, right? Word of advice, avoid that guy. He’s just a catastrophe.”
And though they were startled by the commotion this “Varian” guy made; Y/N could only feel more curiosity brim inside of them.
Y/N walked towards the lab, and after arriving they saw someone run out of the place. A scrawny guy with black hair and an alchemist’s attire. He looked out of breath.
“Are you alright?” Y/N said, approaching the alchemist.
“Oh yeah! Totally fine, just a simple miscalculation occurred and… Uh, have we met before?” The boy said, his head slightly tilted as if it would help with recognising the person Infront of him.
“Nope, The name’s Y/N. And you are?” They said, holding out a hand to shake.
“Varian!” He replied, shaking their hand. Giving them a warm smile, he couldn’t help but stare into their eyes for a moment. They almost shone like pearls.
Ah, they thought to themselves, this is the walking disaster that villager spoke about? He seems friendly.
“Your clothes are pretty interesting, where are you from if you don’t mind me asking?”
Y/N’s face immediately falls. It did not dawn on them that people might ask such questions… Quickly, distract him!
“Uh- hey! How’s about you show me around the kingdom first? Y’know I might need an extremely knowledgeable guide.” They hooked their arm around his and gave him a nervous smile. Ushering him to move on.
“Oh, sure. If you’re looking for knowledge, then I’m your guy!” he gave them a warm smile back.
And with that, they went to corona kingdom. Varian did his best at cracking some jokes whilst showing Y/N around. Before long, this charming dork of an alchemist had Y/N’s undivided attention. And the more they were around each other the more they grew closer. Though they didn’t share much information about one another, they still felt a magnetic pull.
“Well, I think I’ve shown you everything.” Varian looked at his surroundings, realizing that this tour had taken more time than expected. He then looked back at Y/N, for reasons unknown the more he had spent time with them the less he could keep his eyes off them.
“I guess you have, but hey. That doesn’t mean we’ll stop seeing each other, right?” They held his hand. It made them both feel fuzzy on the inside. “Today was a blast! And I loved hearing all those fun anecdotes you have about the history of corona.” Y/N put their other hand on their cheek as they recalled all those funny little stories he told them.
“Of course, I hope to hear about the stories of your home at some point too.” He said, almost expecting a certain response from his peculiar friend. He had a little pensive look in his eyes as they flickered to him and Y/N’s hands clasped together.
“I hope so as well.” Y/N whispered to themselves, feeling a little bad for not being able to open up to him about where they originate from.
They stood in silence for only a moment, and before Varian could chirp up and say anything, Y/N gave him a quick peck on the cheek as they handed him a little light weight object.
“See you soon, Varian.” Their words were as warm as their lips. As soon as they were gone, Varian realized that in his hands was a seashell bracelet. His cheeks burned red, no one had ever left such an impression on him like Y/N just did. Soon enough, they’ll meet again.

First part is linked within this text here!
“What?!” Y/N’s voice echoed and bounced across the room, shocked from the news they had received.
“Sweetie, please don’t yell. I’m still recovering from that headache-inducing speech me and the others got from the king." Their mother replied with her fingers massaging her temples.
A few days had passed since Y/N visited the surface, and in that short amount of time a lot had transpired. The merfolk found out that sirens will launch an attack on Corona Kingdom, which includes Old Corona, and the reasoning behind it is still unknown to the merfolk.
Y/N stood looking at their mother, with eyes so focused yet angry and calculating.
“...Oh, no. No, no, absolutely not.” Mother had already read their mind, trying to talk them out of it.
Before she could utter any other objections, Y/N swiftly grabbed one of their nearby spears that was put close to the door and stormed off. Managing to whisper one “I love you.” to their mom as if she won't see her child again.
Y/N’s mother, with a headache worsening by the second, now was struck with a heartache more horrid than anything she had felt before. “Just like their father, stubborn…” she said through gritted teeth, tears welling up and her hand on her heart.
══════════════════
They had eyes that shone like pearls. They were warm, loving, yet cold and distant. They gave him a seashell bracelet and then haven’t shown up since…
Why was their entrance in his life so abrupt, yet so welcome by him?
“Varian…”
Why does he lay awake obsessively rewinding and savoring every memory of them?
“Varian?”
Why did they hesitate to share their life, their family, their origins. Why?
“Son? Are you alright?” Quirin’s voice broke through the fog in the young alchemist's mind. Varian’s eyes blinked rapidly as he came back to reality. And as he did so, he felt something…wet under his boots?
“You’ve been pouring water into that mug for a good while now, I believe it has overflown.”
“Gah! Oh… Hehe, sorry ‘bout that dad.” Varian quickly got a towel to clean up the spill, murmuring to himself going on about water and the sea, and seashells. For no particular reason whatsoever
“Son? Son. The floor is practically shining you need not wipe it anymore”
“Oh, is it? I guess my mind was elsewhere haha…”
“Don’t tell me you’re still thinking about that strange person you met?” Quirin said in a tone not quite discernible, so Varian opted for the safe response.
“...Nooooo.”
Quirin let out a small laugh, trying his best to contain most of his joy and amusement.
“Dad, seriously?”
“I’m sorry, it’s just that I am ever so grateful you’re starting to gain friends.”
“Gee. Thanks.” The alchemist replied sarcastically. And as that emotion came it went, something in his peripheral vision caught his attention and made him whip around to get a better look.
“Something the matter, son?”
“...I will be back dad, just give me a minute.” With that he practically leapt to the door.
══════════════════
Y/N was outside Varians home, guarding and patrolling the place with a huge spear in hand when suddenly his voice broke through the worried thoughts that swam in their head.
“You’re back! I knew you would-” Varian said whilst running up to them, going on to try and hug them, though they suddenly turn around and the look in their eyes show a look quite indiscernible. Was it anger? No, determination, or maybe worry?
”- I mean, not that I was…expecting you to come back to me specifically but I, uhm-” Varian kept on stuttering until his friend suddenly dropped their spear and hugged him.
“I was so worried! Thank goodness you’re safe.”
The pure joy that rushed through him at the hug given was insurmountable, it enveloped him and distracted him for so long he forgot that hugging someone for too long would make him a weirdo. And so he pulled away to ask Y/N the question on his mind.
“Why wouldn’t I be safe?” Varian said, and before Y/N could answer someone else did.
“Because of an attack planned by sirens”
When Y/N and Varian turned around they saw her, Y/N’s Mother, mostly still wet since she emerged from the sea. Certain areas of her skin that can be seen peeking from her clothing were replaced with beautiful scales that shone in the sun
“Sorry for worrying you my child, it was a false alarm.” Mother continued.
“Mother! You can’t be seen like that, your scales aren't dried out!” Y/N said, without much thought
“That's your mother?!” Varian exclaimed, his eyes flicking back and forth from Y/N to their mom.
A moment of silence wrung through the air as they all looked at one another…
══════════════════
Some time had passed since that day, Y/N told Varian everything, their identity, their origins and why they kept it secret.
They told him they kept that information hidden since they didn't know if he would accept them. But to their surprise he was, in his words, “fascinated” and “eager to learn about their culture.”
And now, as Varian sat, watching Y/N in the water swishing around and relaxing. He decided to join them in the water. For good reason, he needed to chat with them a little.
“Woah look at you swimming with me this time, wanna gain some gills and join me underwater too?” Y/N jokingly said.
“If that's an option, then yes!” Varian didn’t pick up on the sarcasm.
Y/N’s heart skipped a beat as soon as he answered with no hesitation. And with so much hope in his voice too.
“I don’t know, maybe you could whip up an alchemical solution for that...” Y/N voice trailed off as soon as Varian clasped his hands on theirs. Cupping them together as if he was warming them up.
“Maybe I can, and you know Y/N, I can do a lot! But I can’t do what you do.” His breathing got funny for a second, like he was preparing himself for something.
“And I haven’t known you for long but I see us getting to know each other better! I uh, I see something… with you, with u-us and uhm-”
He continued speaking and as he did, Y/N’s eyes started widening little by little.
And as he looked into their eyes he kept getting more and more scared, his heart quickened its pace and he started to shake. “Aha… it sure is cold around here!”
He tried to avoid eye contact, in fact he wanted a black hole to suddenly materialize, suck him in, and take him away from this interaction because of how awkward he felt.
Y/N read all the clues he was giving them, the loving words, then discomfort, the build-up, then the sudden awkwardness.
“So, you… feel what I feel, don’t you.” Y/N said with a lil smile crept up on their face.
“What, cold?” Varian said, still thinking about his previous comment.
“No, dummy!” They flicked their eyes towards their hands, which were still in Varian's grasp. Their smile now widened when they saw his face morph from awkwardness to realisation after following their gaze.
“Oh that's such a relief, Varian! I can finally say it!” they took him in their arms and swished around on the waters’ surface. Like an over-joyed child they were hugging and swirling around with Varian in their arms.
“I love you, Varian!” and with one last swish they squished him and gave him a peck on the cheek.
He immediately reddens a shade of red that was as bright as raspberries, and melted into their embrace.
“I love you too, Y/N.” he says in a hushed whisper, turning their face with his hand and giving them a kiss.
══════════════════

Cuddled Up | Varian x GN!Reader | Oneshot
Varian was quietly enjoying a cup of hot cocoa on a cold winter day, reminiscing on old memories.
The only source of light and the warmest spot in his home was the fireplace. So naturally he was huddled up to it, awaiting someone.
Though it hurts to look back on the past, amidst all the trials and tribulations, he still finds all those little moments where things weren't so bad. Like the time cassandra saved his butt. or all those other times rapunzel saved his butt.
Huh…
Now he was just thinking of the strange pattern of women in his life saving his ass.
“Varian!”
Oh wow, speaking of saving his ass! Y/N had just come at the right time.
“Thank goodness, Y/N, did you manage to fetch all those ingredients I wrote down?” He had inquired, giving a gentle smile.
“Unfortunately, no. Every place is closed due to the weather conditions.”
Varians smile deflated.
“I already told you, Varian. No place would be open by now.” They sighed, taking off their fluffy winter hat. “Not much we can do about it, but sit back and enjoy some hot drinks.”
“Eh, I guess you're right. Want some hot cocoa?”
“Oh, absolutely. I nearly freezed half to death out there.” they joked, and plopped themselves down next to Varian.
As Y/N went in to drink their hot cocoa, they remembered something.
“Hey Varian, where's your dad? I didn't see him when I walked in.”
they had asked him with their eyes fixated on the fire. Certain thoughts swirled in their head.
“He said he was going to check something with the king. And if it started to snow heavily he would just stay in the castle.”
He said pretty nonchalantly. As if it wasn't the first time he was left alone to take care of the house.
“Hmm, so what you're saying is we have the house to ourselves?”
“Mhm.”
And with that, a demon had been awoken from its slumber. Figuratively speaking of course. The demon was Y/N.
“Oh~?” they purred as they started to wrap their arms around the alchemist, cuddling him. “How about we get a little more…comfortable, then?”
He shivered at the sudden contact. And Varian’s face began to redden. His only response was a confused nervous giggle. His eyes stayed glued to Y/N, his mind running wild.
Y/N just loved seeing him so flustered. Unable to stop themselves from messing with him, Y/N decided to take it one step further.
“Awh, you’re shivering.” They put one hand on his cheek and leaned into his ear, whispering “don’t worry, I’ll make you feel warm.”
They then pressed their chest against his, and sat on his lap. Their faces now mere inches away from each other.
“Wait Y/N, I-“ his voice cracked
“You’re what? You’re still cold?” They asked with a smile creeping on their face.
He thought for a moment, then very bashfully said “M-maybe.”
Y/N started laughing, And Varians expression dropped for a second time today.
“You shoulda seen your face! Haha, god you’re so precious.” They pushed him away whilst cackling. “Oh~ Y/N~ kiss me Y/N! Hold me Y/N-“ before they could finish mocking him, he interjects.
“Stooop!” Varian threw a couch pillow at them. “For god's sake, why do you always mess with my head!”
“Cuz you’re cute, duh.” Y/N giggled and threw the pillow back.
“I think you’re cute too, but I never mess with you!” He tossed it again at them
“Say that again-“
“NO.”
“C’mon you love me.” They pecked his cheek.
“Ugh.” Varian smiled begrudgingly. A tint of red traced his cheeks ever so slightly.
They then eased themselves back into cuddling once more. With the occasional banter here and there.
Authors note: (Again, hopefully this is what you wanted, I tried something new with making the reader more of a lil shit lol. Also if you want more flustered Varian lmk)
You wouldn’t have ever guessed that after meeting Varian the “scary wizard” for the first time, that you’d feel so charmed to be in the presence of the alchemist.
“Aha! After a bit of experimenting, I’m pretty sure I got the alchemical compound you desire!” Varian had said, with pride in his voice. And that same cute look in his eyes when he finally gets his desired result.
With all the rumors going around, you would’ve thought he was more of a mad man with special powers and interests. Not too far from the truth, but you make sure to keep that thought to yourself.
Plus, after a while of knowing him you discovered something peculiar.
“And now, after much anticipation I present you- …uh Y/N?”
You couldn’t help but silently admire him. Watching him work was like magic.
And although he was a bit of a mess, it was still so nice to be around someone who had such passion and ambition towards a craft such as alchemy and tinkering. Especially since you had special interests that felt like a reflection of his.
“Hello? Y/N?” The confused alchemist waved his hand in front of Y/N’s face, a touch of concern in his voice.
Oh no, not again.
It appears Y/N has been lost in thought once more, silently fawning over Varian with a tranced look in their eyes.
“Oh! So sorry, I was just… lost in thought” Y/N had said, with a slightly more awake look in their eyes. As if they were previously mesmerized.
Varian smiles a little whilst he looks into Y/N’s eyes. And as he sets aside the alchemical compound, Varian starts searching for something. Possibly a scroll to write instructions on, simply because he was trusting you to handle the alchemical solution on your own for your specific needs.
You innocently lean in to see what he was looking for. Amidst the chaos of his labs’ untended piles of scrolls, he finds something and gets so excited he accidentally pulls his head up too fast and you two practically bonk each other.
“Ah!” You yelped.
“God, I’m so sorry! I-” Varian instinctively cups your face in his hands and tilts your head to inspect you.
Your face suddenly flushes with warmth, the close proximity was a bit unexpected.
You got a better look at Varian’s face, his cute little freckles, his blue eyes… and then your eyes trail down to his lips. Y/N at that moment wanted to lean in so badly and peck his lips. The thought’s were intoxicating.
“I… didn’t realize you were so close.” Varian said, laughing nervously. Holding on to Y/N’s face for a little longer than he would’ve if he hadn’t noticed something odd.
A flushed face, half lidded eyes and a dopey smile was strewn across Y/N’s face.
His concerned expression was now replaced with a smile.
“Y’know, It’s cute when you get like this.” He said. And to Y/N’s surprise he gave them a peck on the cheek.
“Wh- Varian?” Y/N’s eyes fluttered.
“What? It’s not the first time you’ve gotten ‘lost in thought’ You didn’t think I’d catch on?”
