🐇Letting Their S/O Pet Them
Characters: Tighnari | Headcanons - Fluff/Comfort
☆3rd Person | GN Pronouns
Sypnosis: They've notice how down their s/o has been as of late. After a bit of thinking, they've finally thought of something that could take away that disappointed frown off their beloved's face and replace it with the usual radiant smile that captured their heart.
🐇 | A/n: Tighnari may be a bit ooc since I haven't played the archon quest through fully yet ;;
It wasn't too hard to notice, really.
He's been hearing a lot of the rangers talk about how off his beloved's been as of late. As if there was something bothering them.
This had worried Tighnari quite a bit. He's been observing his s/o's behavior in hopes of finding something.
He's noticed a few things.
One, their mannerisms indicate that it's something they don't feel comfortable talking about with the other rangers, at least. Whenever someone asks how they're doing, their hands start fidgeting and he's noticed how they never directly look at the person asking.
Two, they try their best to act normal around him, almost as if it's a secret they're keeping locked and sealed in the deepest depths of their heart. Of course, to any other person, they were acting how they normally would towards him. However, others must remember that this is HIS s/o. It's only natural that he'd be able to notice that something was up.
Research isn't how he should be doing this, he's in a relationship now. Communication is key, as they say, so with this data, he uses it to confront his s/o.
So he approaches them, and urges them to go somewhere where the two of them can sir down together and talk things out.
Tighnari will first explain to them that he's noticed their recent changes in behavior. Then he'll ask them what happened (without forcing them to talk), and if there's anything he could do to make them feel better.
His s/o tells him that they've just had a really rough week and didn't want to worry about them.
They tried to apologize to him, but before they could, he pulls them into his arms and gives them a quick peck on the lips in an attempt to quite them.
Tighnari will reassure them that he is their partner, and he's here for them if they ever need anyone to lean on.
Although even after that conversation, he's noticed how his s/o seemd to still feel upset.
So, this required a plan b. One that he usually wouldn't go to, as it was embarrassing, very embarrassing.
When his s/o came home after being out the whole day, he pulled them onto his lap, which took them off guard.
With a graceful movement, he took their hand and placed in on his head. A small smile of reassurance resting on his lips.
"You're still feeling down, correct? Well... Cheer up. It's alright. I normally wouldn't let people do this, but since it's you, go ahead..."
