Hello, I loved you're last post it was so cute. I was wondering if you'd do another Crit role cast with child reader where child runs on stage during a live show. (Maybe they had a snack they needed Travis to open idk something childish has them run on stage) The crew is like your too cute to be mad at and they help Matt dm for a bit before they decide to run backstage again. Please?
I love this, I need this in my life and so I shall write it!
Small Interruption
Crit Role Cast & Child!Reader
For some context, this is during The Adventures of the Darrington Brigade One-Shot
You fidget nervously with the package of cookies in your hands trying to open it without making a mess, donât want a repeat of last time, but it was a such a struggle. You really wished youâd asked Matt or Travis to help you open it earlier before they had to go onstage but had completely forgotten, now with the one-shot well into its first hour you really werenât sure what to do. You could ask one of the staff, but they were scurrying everything helping handle things here and there, and you werenât allowed to wander too far on your own so you wouldnât accidentally get lost. Figuring if you were fast enough, you could just run across the stage and get Travis to help open your cookies without anyone noticing, it was perfect logic! You shuffle closer to the stage and take a small peek around the curtain at the large audience, you take a few big breaths to ready yourself then dash out into the open as fast as possible to get to Travis. The entire cast goes quiet when you suddenly run all the way across the stage, the audience going into murmurs and small âawwâsâ at your appearance.
âWhat are you doing over here?â Travis asks, leaning over from his seat.
âI canât open it.â You pout, holding up you snack.
âCouldnât the staff have helped you?â
âI didnât know who to ask, and they all looked so busy.â Your pout grows bigger. Your eyes glance back at the audience again and realizing that you basically just run across the whole stage and put the game on pause just because you couldnât get to your cookies makes you shrink a little into yourself at the large crowd now watching you.
âAyy ahhh, whoâs your little friend over âere?â Ashley asks, speaking like her character.
âHow should I know? They just appeared out of nowhere, but how can I say no to that face.â Travis responds, also in character making you brighten up with a giggle at the high pitched voice. He then easily opens the package for you.
âYou small⊠and pretty.â Liam jumps in on the action giving you gentle head pats. You just kept giggling at their âin characterâ antics with you. You start to make your way off stage when your scooped up by Matt and he sits you on his knee.
âSince your here, why not help me a bit, yeah?â He gives you a smile.
âCan I?!â Your eyes practically sparkle, everyone laughs and coos at your excited bouncing.
âOf course! You can be pseudo-DM with me.â You had no idea what that meant but it sounded fun.
And fun it was, Matt let you help DM the initiation trials for the characters even adding in a small NPC for you to give your own voice to as you interacted with the characters, as for your cookies you shared one with Matt since he was the closest to you and because he let you stay longer. Maybe there were a few people watching who were confused or unsure how to feel about your sudden inclusion to the story but no one at the table could care less about that, you were all having fun and thatâs what really mattered. You helped Matt DM for a good hour and a bit before he whispers to you that heâd be starting the break soon, which meant your role would be over. You were a little sad, of course, but you knew you couldnât play the whole game with them, at least Matt let you stay until break started giving you the chance to wave bye to the audience before going off stage.
âThat was so much fun!â You cheer once youâre all backstage.
âIt was lots of fun playing with you too.â Laura chuckles, you flash her a big smile.
âYou did really well making your character fit in nicely to the story.â Taliesin compliments.
âThanks!â
âSoâŠâ Travis trails off slightly, shuffling closer to you. âWhy didnât you share your cookies with me? I helped you open it.â He feigns betrayal with an over exasperated sigh.
âBecause Matt let me stay and play with you guys.â You playfully state. Travis then pretends like your words had just stabbed him earning a laugh from you. Eventually break came to an end and everyone had to go back onstage.
âThatâs our cue! Wish us luck (y/n).â Marisha says giving you a quick squeeze before she hurries back onstage.
âYou guys got this! Go beat up those bad guys!â You cheer. Sam then approaches and gives you a nod, you and Sam have this thing going on where you both do a small dance together and end it with a high-five, sorta like a back-to-the-game ritual before he heads onstage. You happily sit back in your little chair as you watch the rest of the show. No more snack interruptions from you, although no one wouldâve complained if there was.
âšGilmore and Childâš
You know what I mean, we both do Luv
Indeed we do Luv, indeed we do
March is finally upon us! And so starts the beginning of NPC Month! LETâS GOOOOOO!
Nothing More Valuable
Gilmore & Child!Reader
Set some time after Wild Surge
Itâs almost hard for you to believe that just a few months ago you were actually adopted, and not by just any random person either, but one of the best shop owners in existence, a one Shaun Gilmore. Some mornings youâd wake up half expecting it all to have been a dream and are always thankful to realize it wasnât. Today proved a little different when you wake up feeling a little stuffy in the head, part of you wanting to just roll over and go back to bed, and you almost would it not for the knocking at your door.
â(Y/n), you awake? Or shall I come back later.â You hear Gilmore on the other side of the door. You stretch and sniffle as you climb out of bed and open the door for him, being greeted by his smiling face. âAhh, there you are. Ready for the day as much as I am?â
âAlmost,â you say with a small yawn, âjust need to get dressed and clean up a little.â You return the smile and he nods.
âThen Iâll leave you to it. But do be quick, I have a special task for you today.â Gilmore says as he closes the door. Hearing you had a special task perks you up a bit, though your head still feels stuffy you choose to ignore that as you hurry to get ready for the day and rush out of your room.
âIâm done!â You announce with a proud smile.
âAh, glorious!â Gilmore beams back walking over to you. âNow, are you ready for that special task?â You nod eagerly, stopping when thereâs a minor dizzy feeling rattling around your head, note to self donât be too eager. Gilmore chuckles and hands you a slip of paper alongside a bag of gold. âIâll be holding a special sale soon and Iâd like for you to grab the items on the list for me while I prepare the finer details at the shop.â
âYou mean I get to go to around the market all by myself!?â You look to him excitedly.
âI do, youâve learned the layout enough and Iâm confident in your abilities.â He reassures, finding your excited bouncing amusing.
âI wonât let you down.â You salute him, as if you were a solider assigned a serious mission, before heading out the door. Gilmore letâs out another amused hum, a much softer and fond smile on his face as he watches you disappear into the growing morning crowd before heading to the shop. Youâll be fine, he figures, youâve done trips like this all the time with either him or one of his trusted employees, yet even with that thought in mind it didnât shake an uneasy pit to form in his gutâŠ
It was growing closer to midday and that small pit Gilmore had sank into a deep worry, you shouldâve arrived by now. He tries shaking off any worse case scenarios, reasoning that the market can still be just a bit confusing for someone still so young or perhaps youâd run into someone you knew and struck a conversation with them, maybe both. Yes, that had to be it, Gilmore was an outgoing person and itâs no secret that you had come out of your shell a lot more since he took you under his wing. Yet as the day progressed, evening starting to approach and still no sign of you, that worry was now slowly slipping into a fear that something was wrong.
âSherri, Iâm going out.â Gilmore says in an oddly firm voice, Sherri nods to him in understanding, truth is she too was starting to worry about your well being but kept it to herself so sheâd remain professional in front of the costumers. With Gilmoreâs concern growing by the second he barely registers the new arrivals at his shop, the questions they ask unheard as he casually brushes them off and heads for the door. Itâs only when a hand is placed on his shoulder and a familiar voice makes him pause.
âGilmore? Is everything alright? Youâre never one to just walk away like that.â Gilmore looks to the rouge, Vaxâs face showing concern for his friend.
âI⊠you you wouldnât happen to have seen (y/n) on your way here, have you?â Gilmore asks with slight hope.
âIâm afraid not, why? Is something wrong?â
âI sent them out to pick up a few item for me, I havenât seen them since.â The worry was evident in his voice, gaining the attention of the rest of Vox Machina. âIâm sorry, I donât have the time to stay any longer.â With that he turns for the door again.
âWeâll search with you.â Vax quickly adds making Gilmore glance over his shoulder at him. âWe know how much (y/n) means to you, and Iâm sure I speak for everyone when I say weâd all like to see them return safe and sound, right?â He looks to his group getting a nod from everyone, some more enthusiastic then others.
Gilmore, now with the help of Vox Machina head to the market and spread out to start their search for you, asking around to see if anyone knows anything of your whereabouts. This, to Gilmoreâs dismay, came mostly unsuccessful and now was when worst case scenario was starting to bleed into his thoughts. Where could you be? Did someone take you? Were you hurt? What if- His thoughts come to a screeching halt as he turned to look down a small alleyway, the very familiar figure laying on the ground, laying in a small puddle of their own blood nearly making his heart stop. Gilmore rushes to you, checking your pulse and breathing a slight sigh of relief when he finds you still have one, now he carefully lifts your unconscious form in his arms and leaves the alleyway, spotting Pike not too far away and calling for her.
âPlease, help them.â Gilmore near begs, Pike wasting no time in healing you. When she steps away youâre still out cold but at least you were stable, Gilmore sighing in relief. âAs always your devine magic is well appreciated.â He thanks.
âOh, it was nothing.â Pike smiles. âYou should take them home to rest, Iâll tell the others you found them.â
âWonderful, and as thank you for the help Iâll allow you all a fifteenâŠâ He pauses a second to look at your sleeping figure. âAhh, what the heck, you each can take one item free of charge.â
âWhoa! Wait, really?!â Pike stares shocked, Gilmore nods with no hesitation.
âGenerous, I know but⊠no item could be more valuable then them.â He smooths some of your hair back, a caring look in his eyes as your body shifts a little to rest more comfortably in his arms. With that Gilmore heads home, Pike giving a quick wave before using her earring to update the others.
When you finally open your eyes itâs dark outside, stars could be seen through the window. What happened? You remember going to the market and then sneezing⊠oh right. Your realization turns to a groan when your head starts throbbing, the stuffy nose doesnât help either. The door opens softly and Gilmore steps into the room, surprise crosses his features when he sees you sitting up in bed, he walks over and kneels down at the bedside.
âHi, how are you feeling?â As much as he wanted to smother you in a hug knowing you were safe and well, he refrained, not wanting to accidentally hurt you himself.
âI feel icky, dizzy and my head hurts.â You huff a little. âIâm sorry I couldnât get what you needed.â You quickly add but Gilmore hushes you.
âThereâs no need for apologies. Iâm just glad youâre alright. What happened? Did someone hurt you?â From soft and gentle to looking ready to smite someone in an instant, a rare sight to see from the shopkeeper.
â⊠no, it wasnât like that.â You say just above a whisper, you cheeks reddening from feeling a little embarrassed, Gilmoreâs quick to notice.
âItâs alright. Tell me what happened.â
âUmmm, well, I was in the market and looking for where to pick up the stuff you wanted when a-Ah-AHCOOO!!â Before you could stop yourself you sneeze, a surge of magic activating and sending a few items tumbling to the floor. âTh-that happened, but a lot stronger and I blacked out⊠I think Iâm sick.â You finish sheepishly. Itâs quiet for a moment before he lets out a soft chuckle.
âWell, Iâm just glad no one tried targeting you personally. Now you rest up, Iâll fix something up for you when you wake again.â He encourages, you lean forwards and give him as best a hug as you can.
âThank you.â You mumble into his shoulder.
âFor what?â He hums curiously, retuning the hug.
âFor caring for me. Youâre the best papa ever!â Gilmoreâs touched by your words, a content smile on his face as he places a gentle kiss to the top of your head.
âWell⊠thank you for allowing me to do so. Youâre the most valuable thing to ever enter my life.â He replies sincerely, you beam at him before letting out a yawn, Gilmore tucks you into bed and quietly exits the room as you finally laying down for some well needed rest.
Cuddles
Mighty Nein & Child!Reader (Child of the Nein)
*Crawls out of the void* I still live⊠*drops post and crawls back into the void*
Jester
You are always eager for cuddles and Jester is just as eager to return them, sometimes the two of you smiling goofily at each other while trying to see who can squeeze the other the tightest (usually Jester wins, but you get a victory every now and again). Other times you both just snuggle together, enjoying the moment of relief from adventuring.
On days when youâre usual enthusiastic attitude is nothing but a distant memory, so to speak, is when extra special cuddles are needed the most. Jester will sit with you, slowly bringing you closer to her as a way of asking if you were okay with it. When you lean in accepting the hug sheâll pull you onto her lap and hum a tune her just like her mother used to while gently petting down your hair in a comforting way, this usually leads to you falling asleep to which Jester will give a kiss to the top of your head.
Nott/Veth
Itâs not that you donât like cuddles, itâs just youâre not used to them, especially when you first met Nott. She was very understanding of this and took the time to help ease you into the feeling. Even now after all this time youâre still slightly hesitant about it but defiantly more eager to curl up next to her for some R&R.
There are days where even though your past is behind you and youâre a brand new halfling, you still feel like that icky runt of a goblin you used to be. Veth is quick to catch you when youâre like this and jumps right into mom mode, letting you curl into her for extra comfort while she makes sure you know that despite everything she still loves you for who you are. Her comfort and reassurance always helps ease your frantic mind.
Caleb
You love hugs and cuddles, Caleb does not, or at the very least heâs not the most open to them. There were two great ways to get them from him though, the most common was to steal Frumpkin as a substitute, the cat purring and rubbing against you while you happily snuggled into his soft fur. The other way was when Caleb polymorphs into an animal, giving you the chance to still snuggle into warm and fluffy fur while also enjoying Calebâs company (heâs also extra protective of you like this but shhh, thatâs a secret đ€«).
The rare off days where youâre the one feeling down are different. At first Caleb just lets Frumpkin handle it, after all the fey cat has helped him through many tough spots. With time and the more Caleb opens up heâll approach you himself, offering to read stories to you or use Dancing Lights as thatâs your favourite spell and especially the way he shifts the glowing orbs around easily helps brighten your mood once again.
Caduceus
Who were you if not usually soft and gentle, figuratively and literally, so naturally youâre always one to enjoy a comforting cuddle and Caduceus is always happy to share a cuddle with you. Youâll sit together and lean your head against his chest, smiling up at him while he contently smiles back, most of the time youâll have a nice warm cup of tea to go with it, just adding that much more to the comfortable atmosphere between you.
It happens more often then youâd like where your thoughts will sour your mood, locking you in the past and spiralling into what if scenarios. A gentle hand on your shoulder pulls you away from it, and a comforting squeeze fulling brings you back to reality where Caduceus is waiting with a fresh pot of chamomile tea for the both of you. You donât say much as you sip on your beverage, you donât have to, he understands you need that space for yourself. Heâll offer you reassurance while you snuggle into his side, wrapping his arm around you that, in a way, helps protect you from those sour thoughts coming back.
Fjord
Youâre not one to jump at an opportunity for cuddles but you donât mind them either. Fjord would argue you actually very much enjoy cuddles, but itâs usually when youâre sleepy but feel too stubborn to fall asleep right away. There are multiple times youâd force yourself to stay awake so you donât miss something important with the Nein, only for you to curl up against Fjord and end up passing out anyways. He doesnât mind in the slightest, he likes that you feel safe enough with him to fall asleep.
When youâre having a bad day youâre not exactly willing to say something right away, youâve gotten better at it over time but there are still days when you just get really quiet and standoffish with everyone. Fjord will almost immediately catch on to whatâs happening and check on you, if you need a bit of space but donât want to be alone, heâll sit with you until youâre feeling better, if youâre looking for some comfort Fjord will happily lift you into his arms and hold you in a safe and secure grip until youâre back to your usual self again.
Beau
Youâre indifferent when it comes to something like cuddles, you donât hate them but you donât care much about them either. What you usually do is give Beau a gentle punch to her arm as a sign of affection, sheâll do the same back at ya and you both call it a day.
Itâs rare but there are days were you just feel down, your mind almost forcing you to wonder if you were ever good enough for anyone, you usually try to take your mind off it by distracting yourself with training. Itâs not long for Beau to notice youâre quiet and sad demeanour, sheâll get you to sit next to her when you take a quick break, wrap an arm around your shoulder and gently pull you into her side. Depending on how upset you are will depend on if youâll get Beau to also draw small designs on your arm too, defiantly helps you feel better after some time.
Yasha
Youâre not the most open to touch, maybe the occasional hug here and there but you donât initiate it. Itâs not that you donât like them, youâre just so used to keeping your distance with people that you almost feel a bit uncomfortable with it. Yasha doesnât mind this, of course, sheâs about the same when it comes to hugs and cuddles but with time and lots of patience youâre both more open to it, you still donât seek it out for yourself though.
More often then not youâre caught up in your thoughts, part of you wanting to seek out Yasha for a bit of comfort but the other part of you doesnât always know how to go about it. Thankfully Yasha has become very good at reading your emotions and is understanding when you need to work things out for yourself, she knows youâll come to her when youâre ready and even though you fumble through your words sheâll wait for you to finish explaining yourself before offering you the comfort youâre looking for.
Molly
You love cuddles, simple as that. Someone wants hug, youâre happy to offer. There are times you take a running start towards Molly, making him drop whatever he might be doing at the time to catch you when you jump at him for a quick cuddle before letting him finish what heâs doing. It never bothers him when you âsneak attackâ him like that, he finds it fun and great for keeping himself aware of his surroundings, win-win all around.
The literal second your emotions get you down Molly notices, your usual upbeat attitude suddenly disappearing never sits well with him. Itâs one of those rare times where the Nein, aside from Yasha, will see Mollyâs softer, more caring side show itself. The normally eccentric tiefling now calmly and quietly holding you, brushing a hand through your hair to soothe away the bad thoughts that dare tired to enter your brain.
May I request for NPC month a Cassandra De Rolo with child reader. The young child was left orphaned after the Chroma Conclaves attack on Emon but fortunately scooped up by Vox in the escape to Whitestone. Child takes a liking to Cass and manages to continually sneak away from their host family to be near them [Cass]. Little ones sneaky little antics bring a certain joy to Whitestone castle that hasn't been felt in ages. Cass falls for little one's warmth and decides it might be best child stay with her.
Please and thank you.
Another fic finished! Cue the fanfair! đ I was sorta hoping I could get more done but honestly 2 fics in one month is a record for me at this point in time so Iâm happy with the results. (Also I sadly couldnât think of a title for this one, but if anyone else does Iâm open to suggestions, itâs fine if not.) I hope you all enjoy đ
Cassandra & Child!Reader
What was happening? Why was it happening? Everything was happening too fast for your brain to grasp any of it, all you could remember was watching the kingâs speech to all Emon, bells, people panicking, losing sight of your parents and being grabbed and hauled away by someone. It was a blur to your mind, making you feel as though reality itself had disappeared from you, so the absolute whiplash you felt when you came to your senses only to find yourself in a new city was immense. Some close friends of your parents had taken you in for the time being, and while it took a bit to confirm for sure, they had to break the news to you that your parents had perished in the attack on the city. You ran off that night, not wanting to believe any of it, your little legs carrying you right to Whitestone castle at the perfect time that someone else was stepping out for some air.
Cassandra just stepped out to cool her head, a lot was going on in a short amount of time and all she wanted was a second to breathe. She was shocked to find a young child sobbing just outside the castle, especially this late into the night. Unsure what to do she slowly approaches the kid, noticing some recent scaring from burns, one of the refugees.
âAre-are you alright, little one?â She mentally slaps herself for sounding so uninterested.
âAhh!â You jump back in surprise at the sudden voice, not realizing someone else was there with you. You look up at the woman with teary eyes. âN-n-nâŠâ You couldnât even get a word out as another sob wrecks through your body.
âNo no, shhh, itâs alright. Youâre safe from danger here.â Cassandra tries to soothe, her efforts in vain as you continue to cry. âHey hey, itâs okay. Whatâs wrong?â The words sorta slipped out without much thought put into them, but it did seem to encourage an answer.
âI-I want-*hic* I want my mom and dad. *hic hic* I wanna go home.â You cry, pulling your legs to your chest so you could curl yourself into a ball.
âIf you got yourself lost we can easilyâŠâ Cassandra trails off when she sees the look on your face. That pained look of loss and suffering she knew all too well. She kneels down next to you, gently placing a hand on your back, your body flinches away for a second before resting against her hand again. âI understand how youâre feeling. Loosing your family at such a young age is not an easy experience to go through, nor seeing your home get destroyed from its former glory. Iâve been where you are, just a kid forced to go through a horrible experience.â
Your sobbing calms slightly to more of a whimper, you wipe your tears on your sleeve but more still fall, looking up at her again to see she was staring off into the distance in thought. You rise onto your feet and tug at he shirt gently to regain her attention, when she looks over you raise you arms up to her in a silent question, she looks at you perplexed for a second before catching on and lifting you into her arms where you then hug her. You feel her tense before relaxing and her free hand rests itself on your back once more. It was a nice moment, you felt a little more relaxed and calm for the first time since everything happened, too bad it had to be cut short.
â(Y/n)! (Y/n), where did you go!? Please, answer!â You could hear your foster parents calling for you.
âSo, youâre nameâs (y/n), is it?â You look back to the woman who gave you a slight raised eyebrow in curiosity, making you realize neither of you had introduced yourselves.
âY-yeah.â Your voice comes out small and still a little shaky from all the crying. âWh-whatâs your name?â This earns you a soft chuckle from her, guess she realized the same thing you did.
âI am Lady Cassandra de Rolo, but just Cassandra is fine, itâs a pleasure to meet you (y/n).â She gives you a small smile, you offer one back and are about to say something when your foster parents show up.
âThere you are, (y/n)! Donât go running off like that, you had us worried sick!â One scolds. âAnd finding you with a stranger? These are dangerous times child, you couldâve gotten hurt or worse!â They continue, you just avert your eyes away from them, unsure what to say.
âWeâre very sorry⊠Oh! Lady de Rolo! *ahem* We apologize greatly for any inconvenience this young one may have caused for you.â The one in place of your father bows as he apologizes to Cassandra, taking you into his arms now, you didnât bother fighting it, you were exhausted.
âItâs no problem at all. In fact, they offered good company while here.â Cassandra waves off the twos apologies.
âOf course, my lady. Thank you keeping an eye on them.â The âmotherâ bows before turning her attention back to you. âNow letâs get you home and in bed.â You give her a sleepy sigh and nod.
âNight Cassan...â You give a sleepy wave as your voice trails off, unable to finish your sentence as you quickly pass out.
Giving a wave to your disappearing figures, Cassandra decides to head back in and get some rest for herself, tomorrowâs gonna be another eventful day.
*Emerges from the depths of the void, drops post* See ya in another few months⊠maybe⊠*Crawls back into the void*
Cuddles 2.0
Vox Machina & Child!Reader (Kids Machina)
Pike
You could be a nervous bean more often than youâd like to admit, you loved cuddles but never know when to ask for some. Luckily Pike knows how to read your body language and is more than happy to offer cuddles with you when things arenât crazy. With time you get braver at asking yourself but itâs always good to know that Pike can always tell when you need one.
Pikeâs skill to read your emotions works effectively well on those days where you feel down and lonely, especially when you two are away from the rest of the group to fulfil your duties to Sarenrae. Pike will start by asking if youâre okay, try as you might sometime you just canât lie to her and sheâll warmly offer to cuddle with you until you feel better.
Keyleth
Cuddles with Keyleth are the best especially when she can wild shape herself into different animals you can snuggle against. You especially love cuddling against her Minxie form, feeling the soft fur under you as you snuggle up to her while she curls around you protectively.
While Keyleth has had her own share of down days, she canât stand to see the downtrodden look on your face when your mood is low. Sheâll scoop you up and hold you close, telling you stories or even singing to an old lullaby she remembers her mother singing to her when she was little. You relax into her after a while as you listen to her and she canât help feel some pride at how much you trust and depend on her.
Vex
You liked cuddles but didnât always show it seeing as Vex wasnât always one for cuddling, thankfully Trinket was. The bear always happy and willing to give you snuggles when Vex was busy. Sometimes while youâre cuddling Trinket, Vex will sneak in and join in, making the cuddle pile extra special.
On days where your condition strongly affects you and youâre feeling useless, Vex will be there to reassure you and hold you in her embrace for as long as you need, telling you over and over that youâre not useless and that sheâs happy youâre here with her. Her reassuring words to you always help lift your spirits more and make the bad days more bearable.
Vax
Vax likes his time alone, you understand this, you like your alone time too, but sharing some cuddles every now and again is always nice. The only few times youâve interrupted his alone time for snuggles are the times heâs in an extra standoffish and distant mood, wanting to lift his mood, it always works or at least helps him feel better.
When youâre the one in a down and distant mood Vax will give you some space at first, give you time to come to him. You eventually do but donât say anything, letting him talk to you, not about what the issue is, no he wonât push you for that, heâll sit with you and talk about what he did or how he outwitted Grog in their latest âgameâ. Slowly but surely making you feel better, while he feels a sense of pride for perking you up again.
Grog
Youâre a small, fragile child who likes sharing hugs, heâs a large, powerful goliath who could snap you like a twig if heâs not careful. Thankfully, for both of you, Gorgâs had lots of practice with handling smaller beings
Grog can have a hard time understanding feelings. Especially when you get stubborn and say youâre fine, he accepts that answer until one of the others tells him that youâre 100% not fine. Heâs confused, you said you were fine but you were lying? Why would you do that? He doesnât know exactly what to do so heâll just scoop you up and keep you close to him until youâre actually feeling better.
Percy
Percy isnât a touchy feely man always busy, always tinkering. Being his apprentice you get to stay close to him so you could deal with not getting cuddles or hugs. Occasionally when a project of your own goes well and tests successfully heâll proudly ruffle your hair, it wasnât much but youâll take what you can get.
Some days you just donât feel motivated or worthy of being Percyâs apprentice. When he notices, and he will notice, youâre not in the workshop with him he will drop everything to find you. When he locates where youâre hiding heâll just talk to help you get your mind off of your troubles and doubts because he knows better then anyone that you are worthy and he couldnât have asked for a better apprentice.
Scanlan
Heâs tried not to get close to you, didnât want to give the wrong message to whoever heâs flirting with but after that time you called him dad heâs become more open to it, if only a little bit. Scanlan hadnât realized just how much heâd enjoy something as simple as a hug, sure heâs spent the night with many women, but that pales in comparison to the genuine parental connection he felt when youâd hug him.
When youâd feel sad or upset about something heâs there to cheer you up, with a joke, story or song, anything to see your cheery face again. To the rest of the teamâs shock heâs even brushed off ladies who openly tried flirting with him because he saw your watery eyes and pouting expression.
How about Crit role cast with child reader where they do a special one-shot the childâs wanted to do for the childâs birthday.
Have I always wanted to do something like this? Well yeah, who hasnât. Did I end up projecting a little because my own birthday wasn't that long ago? No⊠m-maybeâŠ
Enjoy everyone! đ
The Birthday Heist
Crit Role Cast & Child!Reader
âSomeoneâs excited.â Marisha comments on your beaming face as you enter the studio with her. You look up at her, practically buzzing with excitement.
âI am! I canât wait to finally play with you guys.â You cheer, trying not to rush too far ahead of her so you donât end up getting lost. She laughs happily at your excitement as you both weave around until you make it to that iconic table. It always takes you a second to remember that what you see on the livestream isnât everything shown from behind the scenes with all the microphones, cameras and crew about trying to set up for tonight.
âAnd weâre excited for you to join us too.â Matt says giving you a couple pats on the shoulder before joining in getting everything setup.
âI heard it was someoneâs birthday today!â You hear, looking over at Travis, Laura not too far behind. Youâre quick to jump into his opened arms, accepting the bear hug from him.
âHey, youâre squishing me!â You pout playfully after a bit, this just makes him hold on slightly tighter.
âGood.â He responds just as playfully before finally letting you go. Once youâre placed down you go and give a hug to Laura whoâs defiantly squishing you a lot tighter then Travis did, but it doesnât last as long and your both giggling once she releases you. Soon enough you Sam enter the studio, he makes eye contact with you before pretending not to see you as he places a hand over his eyes in order to âsearchâ for you. You giggle at his antics but play along copying his actions until you both make eye contact again in which he then dramatically points at you and hurries over.
âAh ha! I hath found the birthday kid!â He declares like itâs some great achievement. He then proceeds to ruffle your hair and give you a much lighter hug compared to Travisâ. He then proceeds to go get some things ready at the table while you go over to greet Ashley.
âHey kiddo, ready to be apart of the action?â Ashley asks once you approach her.
âYou bet I am!â You say, placing your hands on your hips triumphantly.
âAwesome! Youâre going to do great, I know it.â She encourages with a sweet smile, you give her a determined nod and finally go to take a seat at the tableâŠ
You bounced eagerly in your seat as you waited for everyone to finish setting up before going live. Honestly you were still a little surprised they all agreed to do this one-shot with you, Liam seemed to be the most eager to agree but to be fair that man will jump at any and every opportunity to play DnD.
âYou have everything ready?â Speak of the devil and they shall appear, Liam takes a seat next to, he agreed to help you figure out the rules of the game. Itâs not like you hadnât played before but sometimes youâd forget when or what to role for certain actions.
âI think so, but I still need to ask Laura if I can use some of her dice since I donât have my own yet.â You beam. Joining you on the other side was Taliesin which you were very happy about, I mean who better to also help you then the all knowing eldrich being himself.
âYouâre telling me you asked for this one-shot, had a character in mind and everything, but you donât have your own set of dice?â He looks at you with a mock surprise expression.
âI really wanted to play a game, forgot about what I need to play.â You mumble sheepishly.
âHey, itâs all fine. I was just messing with you, this is going to be a lot of fun, youâll see.â He smiles at you and ruffles your hair, making you giggle in response.
âIf itâs all fine, then are youâre saying I got these for (y/n) for nothing?â Taliesin jokes holding a small container of (f/c) dice (idk, you can imagine it as your favourite set or your luckiest set of dice, doesnât matter to me). If it were possible your eyes sparkle as you take the gift from him and look it over carefully.
âThis is really for me?â You gawk.
âOf course itâs your birthday, the one day you can get away with being spoiled.â You give him a hug alongside a thank you, he happily returns the hug with you.
âYou know those dice will be extra lucky too, since theyâve been blessed by the man himself.â Matt jumps in having overheard the three of you talking, Taliesin brushing him off playfully but still giving a proud smile. The others take their respective seats at the table as the crew finish setting up and are about to go live, Matt readying himself for the intro.
âHello everyone, and welcome to tonightâs episode of Critical Role, where a bunch of us nerdy voice actors sit around and play dungeons and dragonsâŠâ
âWE PLAY DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS!!!â You all happily shout, the game hadnât even started yet and you were already enjoying yourself.
âToday weâre stepping away from our main campaign as we embark on a special one-off adventure for the youngest member of our cast here with us today. If youâd like to say hi to everyone.â Matt says gesturing towards you, letting you take a moment to smile brightly at the camera and wave to the live audience.
âHi guys, Iâm super excited to finally get to play! Thanks again for doing this for me.â You say looking around at everyone.
âAww, weâre really happy to have you here with us.â Laura coos back. After a couple more shenanigans with the group involving sponsors it was time to start your very first adventure on Critical RoleâŠ
The premise to the whole adventure was, as the title suggested (yes the title of this story is what theyâd call the one-shot), a heist revolving around your birthday just with your character in place of yourself and with that wonderful fantasy aspect DnD provides. All characters were set to level 5 given the simplicity to the adventure, not that it felt that simple to you, getting help whenever youâd need it for different stat rolls. A very small part of you felt just a little out of place, yes this is what you had asked for and while you did get to share plenty of laughs with everyone you also didnât feel like you matched their level of skill. Thankfully everyone was quick to catch on and reassure you that you were doing great and that it was okay if you werenât exactly perfect, after all you havenât been as long as they all have and so long as you were having fun that was what really mattered to them.
After hours of playing, with a nice break in between to catch your breaths, it was time for the final climactic fight of your little adventure. With the few smaller encounters earlier you were already decent enough to handle some of the combat on your own, although there were still some things you had to ask about. You were ready to face down your foe, a nasty mutant werebear who decided to play party crasher, your Draconic Bloodline sorcerer (yes, Iâm basic) still plenty prepared to throw everything they have at it. The fight feels intense, at least to you, as you all work together to chip away at the bosses health. It was your turn and Matt had already described the beast looking pretty rough which you knew meant it was close to being defeated, you take a breath and grab your new dice to use for this attack, taking a breath you roll for the hit.
âNo way!â You hear Liam say astonishment, you look at him then Taliesin whoâs smiling like an idiot, looking down at your dice stunned. âTell them, tell them, tell them.â Liam urges astonishment replaced with a large, goofy smile that you mimic as you look up at Matt.
âNAT 20 BABY!â You shout and the table goes nuts over it. Matt having to take a second to compose himself.
âThat is a definite hit. Go and roll for damage.â And you do just that, getting to hear the phrase that always erupts the table in chaotic joy. âOkay (y/n)⊠How do you want to do this?â Now they may not tell you this but the game was slightly rigged so youâd get the last hit no matter what, the fact you landed a natural 20 was honestly just the cherry on top.
âI want to raise my arms and call on the power of my blue dragon grandparent, or whatever theyâre called, and summon a bolt of lightning to strike at the evil bear man.â You describe as best as possible. Matt nods and looks back over the table as he begins to describe what happens.
âAs you raise your arms to the sky, you can feel the ancestral bloodline flow through you like a current of electricity, sparks bzzz bzzz start to flare off your fingertips with the energy collecting with yourself. You focus on this power, drawing yourself closer to it, taking aim as the lightning launches from your hands itâs as if you hear the distant roar of a dragon through it, striking at the werebear, singeing the fur as they howl in pain. RRRAAAHHRR! All goes silent and when the smoke clears you see the charred remains, small sparks emanating off of the once mutated creature.â You listen in awe at his description, loving the little sound effects he always added. Everyone lets out a cheer at the victory and once youâve happily wrapped up the rest of the adventure and finish the livestream everyone heads over to where they usual host Talk Machina, but instead they had a small set up waiting for you, cake and a couple presents waiting to be opened.
âHAPPY BIRTHDAY (Y/N)!!â Everyone cheers. Today was the best birthday of your life, hands down.
HI!!! I really love reading your CR fics, and I was wondering if I could request something.
Like, how would the group of VM and MN (platonic or romantic) react to the reader who has a book that they are always seen with in their hands, but hides it when asked until one day the member finds it with the reader nowhere to be seen, so curiosity gets them, they look through it and find multiple sketches of them and the group in it and are blown away by how like the level of detail renders them speechless and maybe blushing (nothing suggestive) just moments of them smiling, laughing, focusing or celebrating a win at a tavern or something, please and thank you. :)
sure thing :) kinda had some fun with this //slight s3 spoilers
|masterlist 12
Keyleth
Sheâs never given a second thought to how she looks during the mundane, especially when laughing as the corner of her eyes crinkle, laugh lines form and nose scrunches.
A flower blooms on the mantle worn on her head, petals bursting with the emotion thatâs wracked her whole body.
Percy
Heâs not a stranger to the random doodling, especially when his mind wanders with new creations. But your drawings throw him off, admiring the attention detail youâve added as he feels his cheeks and ears flush.
Even if heâs internally fighting the urge to keep the âupstanding decorumâ a teasing comment still utters out.
âCareful, my love, I canât have you distracted on me now.â
Vax
The stinging feeling flares up along his hand and heâs not sure how much longer he can hide this âconditionâ from you.
Seeing you capture more intimate moments feels bittersweet. Heâll fight to stay for you, just to be able to have a sliver of some peace again with you.
Pike
The cleric has an underrated stealthy side to her skills, so itâs a total surprise when you suddenly hear a rustle and sheâs right on your shoulder
âYou know you could make me taller if you wanted to.â
Vex
Teasing is like a second language to her, only reserved for the ones who are near to her heart. You, her affectionate bookworm, have seemed more distracted than usual and sheâs curious as to why.
She turns through the pages of your sketchbook reverently, fingers tracing along the lines that form her hair and body when youâve seen her best.
Grog
Jokes and sometimes aloof manner aside, the barbarian knows youâve been more distracted than lately. And seeing as how that sketchbook is the culprit, what could possibly be so entertaining?â
His vanity is not to the extreme as some (*coughScanlan) but he walks a lil taller, more puffed out chest, holding his head high whenever he sees you come across
Scanlan
Ever so nosy, he just couldnât help himself to just sneak a peek at whatâs kept you occupied. Itâs a stroke to his ego but in a way that leaves his heart hammering and full.
âWell I do have an amazing profile so they got that right.â
Grog romantic HC please? Big boi doesnât get enough lovins. đ„č
Of course! Big muscles for a big heart!
Grog romance includesâŠ
Ok so he totally flexes his muscles just to show off to you
Likes to brag about how many fights heâs âwonâ
Pike is his wingman/wingwoman and always hypes him up every time he tries to talk to you
That being saidâŠheâs a terrible flirt but itâs endearing to you đ
Think of it as a mix of himbo warrior
Gives the biggest bear hugs ever!
Incredibly protective!! be it intentional or unintentional
Entirely blunt in his compliments to you because he sees no reason to ever lie to you
Also makes sense that Pike is protective of him too, and always wants to know that youâre genuine with Grog
You get the shoulder seats along with Pike
Vox Machina romantic partner seeing the lovely sketches Garmelie made of their s/o.
This is my favorite part of the showđ€Ł
I live for Fae shenanigans!! đ€Ł
Grog
Canât stop staring at said art but then realizes itâs you as youâre walking up to see what it is, to which Grog chucks said art. Also threatens to beat up Garmelie
Pike
Tries to play it off cool, but fails, with a whole âno! Itâs not you, just happens to be someone who looks like you!â
Keyleth
As if it didnât take her by surprise already, youâre curious nature wants to know what has gotten such a reaction from her, but the cherry blush gives it away
Percy
Heâs either going to make the Fae regret this or heâll have them keep him in the Feywild forever because heâs about to implode from embarrassment
Scanlan
Offended! By no means by the art, but by the fact that why didnât he think of this sooner? And how dare the Fae think theyâre ahead of him?
Vaxâildan
An embarrassed but smitten blush as he tries to wrestle for said âsketchâ of you, sure heâs thought of you like that but he doesnât want to impose on you either
Vexâahlia
Oh sheâs deep into the denial! Trying to play it off as âIâm fine!â but the wide eyes and panicked expression(s) tell you otherwise
So I saw the Vox Machina s/o wolf walker and I cant help but wonder:
Werewolf s/o who acts like a big puppy around their chosen member of VM? Like they will wine like a dog, puppy eyes and all and as soon as they get pats or attention that person is now being suffocated by snuggles and or licks to the face or the person next to the werewolf gets beaten up by a fluffy tail.
Awwww omygosh this is so cute!!
Werewolf âbig puppyâ would includeâŠ.
Perfect for cuddles!!
Keyleth (and Minxie) have a new cuddle buddies!
Grog sometimes likes to play-wrestle with you
Vex and Vax are now smooshed into a Trinket-you sandwich
Scanlan gets you to howl along with his harmonizations, which keeps everyone up at night
Or sometimes even Pike joins in, giving you belly rubs in a whole âwhoâs the best?? You are!!â
After Vax got his wings, now itâs raven boi trying to play tag with you
Always nudging into Percy relentlessly until he finally gives in with an exasperated, âugh fine! If I let you, will you stop pestering me?â
âđ„șđ¶â
The cuddles and pets go on for hours but heâll never admit it
Bonus:
You stay in this form for so long that when you morphed back into human form one afternoon, everyone was confused. Like a âwho are you?!â moment before you explain. âItâs me!â
Can you write something where itâs reader and vox machina. Itâs one of those times where theyâre just having to camp outside. So they all sleep around the fire, reader is nice and cozy, and they fall asleep. However, when they wake up, they feel pair of arms around them and they look and itâs one of the members ïżŒ vox machina dead asleep still. ïżŒ Reader looks around and they notice that theyâre still in the same spot, it was said member that moved closer to them. Either on purpose or on accident in their sleep. ïżŒïżŒïżŒ
Ohmygod thatâs adorable! đ„čSneak cuddles đ„°
Percy
Youâre eyes are wide open as soon as you see the gloved hand holding you close. Soft, gentle breaths bat against your neck and you could have sworn you heard your name
Grog
You could have sworn you felt more heat than usual until you see the beefy bicep engulf you. Each heavy breath make you fall and rise with his chest.
Keyleth
Itâs a tentative but also firm grip on you. Itâs a feeling of being cherished. Everything is serene and perfect this morning
Pike
A small armored hand is on your waist, gentle rubs and pats that feel protective and loving
Vexâahlia
Talk about a tight grip on you. You havenât the heart to wake the archer but surrender to the firm comfort as another arm wraps around you
Vaxâildan
Not only is there a muscled arm around you, but the protective black wing(s) is/are wrapped around you as well. He slightly stirs a bit but only to pull you closer
Scanlan
He snuggled in between your arms and you feel him rubbing small circles into your arms. A soft humming from the gnome warms your heart
