oh gosh as a fat woman nothing has made me feel quite as warm and fluffy as those headcanons of xiao, albedo, and scara wearing reader's clothing :')) first time I ever related to that trope and I'm not ashamed to admit I almost cried LOL
if it's not too much trouble, could I request that same prompt for tighnari, venti, and childe as well? thank you so so much 💗
fandom: genshin impact
character: tighnari, venti, childe
reader type: female, either taller or chubbier than the boys depending on you! <3
summary: they've heard of the custome of borrowing clothes from your significant other, usually, a girlfriend borrowing from her boyfriend. since their clothes wouldn't exactly fit on you, they decided to try yours instead... (part two of this post)
genre: fluff
warnings: none
notes: i'm glad you liked the first headcanons! tbh it gets very tiring when most posts explicitly state reader as being petite in every sense, it can really make someone feel bad from time to time HAHA, here it is <3 ambiguous enough for both the tall and chubby gang! like most things i write, really... i try to make as much as i can about the reader ambiguous for everyone to enjoy. hope you enjoy these as well!
He knows about this thing couples do, and he doesn't find it too weird. It's just another way for people to show affection to each other, but not one he ever paid much thought to.
In the particular case of you and him, though... he can see clearly how it's not really working, at least not in the typical "girlfriend steals boyfriend's shirt and looks diminutely cute on it"
If you ask Tighnari, he'd tell you that idea is just overrated lmao
It's a concept so engrained in the world of relationships that the woman has to be small and the man has to be towering over her and making her look tiny in every possible way, but that's simply not how things are in the real world a lot of the time.
Like between him and you? He's not the shortest person he knows, but he looks very small next to you no matter where you look at it.
No, dear, his clothes aren't going to fit you, and that's okay. You have your own, you don't need his.
If he sees you getting upset at yourself because you can't fit on his clothes, now there he's going to do something.
First of all remind you that he loves you because you're you, and you being you includes you not fitting on his clothes, so please don't feel sad.
You don't have to fit on his clothes to be cute, adorable, and beautiful in his eyes!
Besides, it's not like sharing clothes is a big deal, at least not in his eyes, honestly.
They're just clothes... the only special thing about them is who owns them.
Tighnari will pick up any random shirt of yours one morning without thinking about it too much and put it on to prove a point. Once you wake up and see him in your clothes just going about his morning routine without much thought, he's going to look at you with a smile and look that say 'Told you so'.
He likes wearing your shirts from time to time, but it's not practical for his job in the forest, so he mostly borrows them as pyjamas.
If you insist that you want to wear something that is his, he will get something like a hair accessory or a visor to cover his eyes from the sun, wear it in front of you a couple times, then tell you you can borrow those instead, they'll be more useful and more comfortable for you anyway.
"Whaaat? You... think you're missing out... because you can't fit on my clothes? [name], they're just pieces of fabric cut out and stitched together, it really isn't a big deal. Plus, it's not like you chose to have the body type you have, and even then, you're already beautiful. Now come here, let me put this visor on your head... mm, that's good. Now you're wearing something of mine and protecting your eyes at the same time. See how easy that was? Now come on, we have a long day ahead."
He picks up quickly on how you look on at the couples where the girlfriend is wearing something of the boyfriend and how you get sulky about it.
He has the easiest solution out of everyone, he drapes his cape over your shoulders while you're sitting down one day and gives you a big smile.
Sure, the cape doesn't suit you the same way that it suits him, but it's fine, right? It's his, and you're wearing it!
Now, now, he won't stand for you being sad! You're his beautiful muse, a smile is what suits you better than anything!
If none of his other clothes will fit you no matter what, he's not against somehow getting you a matching outfit that looks exactly like his own but is your size.
And if that fails, well, who ever said that it had to be you the one who steals his clothes?
So you shouldn't feel surprised when you find him in your room one day, trying on your clothes and modeling them on the fullbody mirror.
He looks back at you and smiles, hurrying to hug you and sing praises about you and your fashion sense.
Yup, you're going to see him wearing your shirts and hoodies and sweaters every now and then, only that because your pants, dresses and skirts are just hard for him to style on himself lmao, plus you look so cute on them he doesn't want to damage them in his day to day shenanigans!
He's going to reassure you that he loves you the way you are, that it's okay if you're bigger than him, it's just another thing he likes about you.
As long as you're healthy, all that matters is how happy you are.
So he will do his everything to make you smile more often!
Something he does a lot is sitting on your lap while wearing your shirt, and hugs you like a koala while drinking wine and telling you how lovely you are.
"Ah, it's you! My sweet dandelion, look at this! I always knew you were good at picking out clothes, but this? This sweater is so soft! It's not my color though, so I was thinking maybe this other shirt would be nice for today... Oh? Ehe, why, of course, my muse, I'm trying on your clothes! It gives me a soft and special feeling... It feels just like being around you!"
He's also very much aware of this custome of couples exchanging clothes, and in truth, he felt a little sad for a second that he couldn't have that with you.
But you know what? Fuck that concept, if you like his clothes, like, say, his coats, he'll get you one of the finest quality tailored to fit you perfectly!
That's something he always does tbh, when you see a cute dress, blouse or skirt that you want, but they don't have it in your size, he brings out his wallet and gets a professional seamstress to make one for you!
His beloved will NOT have to be sad over something so easily attainable like clothes, not on his watch!
Childe heard you getting upset because you couldn't fit on his clothes, and felt like you were missing out on something...
Again, if he hears you liking a certain piece of his clothing, he'll get one done for you, but he'll keep thinking.
Like, sure, it's a cute thing to borrow your lover's clothes but hey? He really doesn't think that his usual outfits would be flattering on you even if they fitted you tbh.
He just thinks they're too stiff... and he can still see where blood was splattered on them even after they're all squeaky clean, and he definitely does NOT want to see you in bloody clothes.
One night, he will insist on wearing something of yours to bed, and he will, even if you say he shouldn't.
He's like ??? Gasps, babe, it's my duty as boyfriend to make sure your clothes are comfy!
Which it really isn't but you let him anyway.
Your oversized long-sleeved blouse is airy and comfortable on him, he lets out a sigh of relief as he lays down on the bed, looking up at you with a grin.
He really likes this arrangement. It's homely and cozy, he wears your clothes when he's free, it's relaxing.
"You know, I think I'm going to keep this one. Kidding, kidding! It's just soft and it smells of you... I like it. What, you're blushing? That's adorable of you! Come here, if you want to wear something mine so much, let me give you this scarf I made. There, now we're both wearing something of the other!"
