Changeling Trio with human s/o
Characters: Otto, Nomura, Strickler
Warnings: None, just general fluff
He is not the smoothest man out there. But he certainly has a charm to him like no other. Maybe its the accent, maybe its the blue eyes, or maybe its just cause you find him cute.
All things considered this German Changeling was certainly lucky to have you come into his life. He wasn't really looking for anyone , it kind of just happened. First you started seeing more of eachother. Then it was that time in the bakery, and before he knew it he had asked you to have lunch with him.
After that things took off on their own. You two spent a lot of time together, outside of his work hours with the Janus Order of course, he tried to hide it from you really. And boy was he good at that.
It would definitely take him a while to become comfortable enough to tell you he is a Changeling. History has not exactly been kind to his species. And he really values you as someone he holds dear, so he is really risking ruining things with this.
But he shows you that he's not human. You stare at him bewildered for a moment, before you get up slowly and take a step forward eyes gleaming with curiosity. You gently but a hand to his cheek while he's in troll form. Its warm and surprisingly smooth. You tenderly massage his cheek in a loving way and you say "Its you, no matter what you look like you are still my Otto"
At that he lets a breath he didn't even know he was holding. He is so relieved that you dont mind thats he's not human. You tell him sure you were surprised but at the end of the day he's still the same persom no matter what form he takes.
At that he picks you up with strength you never knew he had and gives you a gentle kiss while he holds you in his arm. He tells you how much he loves you and how happy he is that you accept him no matter what he is.
She is a creature that prefers to keep more to herself. If she's in a relationship its open with benefits. And it was almost always with another Changeling.
But when she met you things changed. Suddenly she didn't want things so open. She genuinely found that she wanted to take it slow and get to know you.
You are simple and plan, but you are who you are and that's what draws her in. The fact that you don't care what people think inspired her. Your thick skinned and stick to your morals.
She would see you day after day around Arcadia and one day she just got curious so she decided to take a seat on the park bench just across from you. She wouldn't say anything, she would just observe you. This would go on until, she deiced to approach you. You weren't a changeling, so you were new territory and that intimidated her as much as it excited her.
She started with a hello and the conversation took off from there. She had a spark in her that made you want to listen to what she was saying. It helped that you are both into artifact and relics. You enjoyed African artifacts and she fancied European ones more herself.
She felt safe around you, the two of you could talk about anything. You both had a spot in town where you liked to meet and it became a habit. You had slipped into her life so easily.
One night you invited her over for dinner and she accepted. The evening was going wonderfully until you heard something moving on the roof. She tried to assure you it was nothing but you insisted on going outside to check. The next thing you knew you were being attacked by a small swarm Goblins. She immediately sprung into action shedding her human form and killing them off with her giant blades.
She stood over you fear written in her eyes and you staired up at her mouth agape and eyes bugged out. She turned and ran away. You yelled after her but she was already gone in a flash.
It has been weeks since you had spotted her. She made a good effort to keep away from you after that night. However she got unlucky and one day you were able to catch her, grabbing her wrist before she could turn away. You pleaded for her to talk to you. You said you didn't blame her for what happened and you were happy she was there. You told her you didn't care what she looked like, that all that mattered was who she was. And that to you she was a beautiful person.
In a moment of vulnerability she lets tears slip down her face as you pulled her in for a hug. Relieved that the relationship you two had built wasn't ruined.
We all know Walt is smooth, so situation of romance more often then not tended to go his way. He could have anyone person he set his sights on.
For some odd reason he choose you. Someone he saw lost in a pile of history books at the Library. Maybe it was the way the sun shone through the window upon you in a poetic sort of way, or maybe it was that you looks so whimsically lost in your readings.
He began to frequent the Library much more often in hopes of getting to see you.
One day, perhaps by accident or perhaps by his careful planning the two of you reached out for the same book hands touching. You shyly offered to let him have the book as you had read that one several times. He mentioned that he had also read it dozens of times.
He offered to have a scholarly conversation with you over the book and it took of from there.
The two of you began to have regular Library dates where one of you would pick up some coffee and the two of you would spend hours talking over the material you both knew by heart.
Slowly overtime your relationship blossomed into something he would want to protects. And try as he might to keep you away from it all sooner or later his other life would catch up with him and he knew this.
So rather than wait for it to randomly happen one day, he made the decision to tell you before you two became more serious with each other
He invited you to tea at his place one day and that is how he would break the news to you, in the comfort of his own home. You could tell shortly after you had been inside that something was off with Walter.
Once he told you everything and then showed you he waited quite anxiously for your reply. You were taken very off guard by his transformation. You got up, excused yourself to the bathroom.
It took you 15 minutes to process this new information and when you came back he had changed back fearing he made you uncomfortable with his troll form.
You sat next to him and gently put a hand on his shoulder. Telling that this would take some getting used to, but that you were in no way uncomfortable by him or by his being a changeling.
To you he was the same old Walt after all, and if you really thought about it having a supernatural boyfriend really was kind of interesting.
He was happy and relived to say the least.
