Albedo Kissing Hcs
warnings: sfw, fluff
-Kisses like everything, are to some extent an experiment to albedo
-A little disappointed when he tried to research this topic and found only romance novels to be his only source. Which is fiction of course, and he considers fiction to be mainly unreliable
-This largely stresses albedo out, a topic he canāt research by observing out in the wilderness or on Dragonspine, not even in a mere book
-He sure as hell isnāt going to ask the public how/what/when/where questions about kissing
-You find a large amount of pages written of his Q&A about this topic, which isnāt abnormal for albedo. But itās cute none the less
-Though to Albedoās surprise, you tell him that while heās largely inexperienced, heās quite the natural. This eases him greatly
-Always kisses you differently and inquires you about it after, doesnāt find it embarrassing or shameful at all
āHmm.. was there any reason you blushed more this time, than the previous time? āWhy are you getting flustered all of the sudden now? We parted moments ago.. late reaction perhaps?ā
-Sorry but he kisses with his eyes open more than youād like. How can he observe your reaction if his eyes are closed?
-Then without even realizing it at some point stopped being an experiment, and was just something he liked doing
-Warm and comforting, your kisses are the exact opposite of Dragonspine
-Albedo still canāt describe in words what kisses are and what purpose they serve, but he figures it something that only humans have an understanding of. Which bothers him of course, but heās accepted it. However he has come to understand it, unbeknownst to him.
-Albedo is always busy and sleep deprived no doubt. He practically melts when you peck him after sneaking over to him quietly. Knocking him out of his half-asleep state slightly, telling him to go to sleep. He wants to argue with you he only needs a few more hours, but your fingers intertwining themselves with his and that soft look in your eyes.. seriously, how can he argue?
-Morning kisses are his favorite. He could sleep all day if he let himself, he hasnāt had a full nights of rest since who knows when. But he wakes himself up purposefully early to watch your sleeping face. Heās always busy and away at the lab, but at this time thereās complete silence nothing to rob him of such a sight. Ingrains your appearance into his mind, and quietly removes his sketchbook from underneath his pillow he placed there for just this moment. Sketching every angle of you before you awake.
-Waiting but a mere few seconds after you awake to kiss you. Somehow even finds your morning breath note worthy. Half-lidded eyes, your soft morning voice, messy hair, never a more enticing time to kiss you in Albedoās eyes
-Albedoās less concerned where his hands are being placed when he kisses you, and more concerned with your hand placement. He has a set reaction in his mind he wants to provoke before kissing you.
-Stares at you blankly if your reaction wasnāt what he was wanting, so heāll lean in and do it again, and again, and so forth until he gets the right one
-His favorites are when you grasp the bottom of his shirt, or the back of his coat. Or gasp into the kiss when he kisses you unexpectedly. Most adores when he feels you smiling.
-Dislikes you sqirming, doesnāt understand it and takes it as you thought it was unpleasureable. Doesnāt like the feeling of lipstick on your lips, it covers their natural texture. Though he doesnāt mind flavored lipglosses. Surprises him at first when he tastes the flavor, but canāt quite tell how he feels about it. Leaves you decide on whether or not you want to apply it.
-Traces your lips with his fingers before and after he kisses you. Almost as a way of letting you know itās coming, and just because he adores doing it. Traces them afterwards with such fondness knowing heās the only one to experience their touch. That theyāre āhisā and āhisā alone.
-Will kiss you other places than your lips, but heās not as fond of it. Initiates this act to note your reaction. Kisses your knuckles because he saw a prince in one of Kleeās books do it to a princess. Patiently awaits your response, and if itās positive heāll note it and do it more often.
-Kisses your cheeks as heās seen my couples do it in public, kisses your forehead because youāve done it to him, and kisses your neck thanks to Miss Lisaās kind suggestion! Of course Kaeyaās tried to give Albedo advice, but heād rather die than trust any of the Calvary Captainās ideas.
-Likes being on the receiving end of your kisses as well. But letās be honest heās noted every detail he knows about you. Understands your thought process and interests. So he knows when youre most likely going to make your move. His attention is only peaked when your usual timing is off. A key detail that youāre upset with him. Something heāll rarely pick up on unless you straight out say that youāre ticked off.
-Of course public affection is not his thing. If he had it his way people wouldnāt even know youāre dating. But albedo makes it so obvious when youāre around. Asks the female members of the Knights of Favious strange open ended questions that they donāt know how to answer. Everyone easily pieces it together and the secret is out.
-So of course heād rather go shirtless in Dragonspine then give you affection publicly. But he dreams of what your expression would look like.. Curiosity kills the cat you know. Heāll finally break, he just has to know if his hypothesis is correct. Kisses you like itās his last chance, because well, it is in-fact the only time heāll be doing this. Hums afterwards if he was correct, and swiftly returns to his office not making eye contact with a single person on the way. All while youāre left completely shocked, mouth gaping open like a dead fish.
