back to the dogboy!arturo propagandising 'cause i'm horny and can't sleep
giving arturo scratches behind the ear and he just melts. call him a good boy and he's signing into boner dot com. which snaps him out of his trance because what the fuck. he's so ashamed it feels like he's gonna die. you catch on that he likes it a little too much, and gently assure him that this makes him the bestest of boys, because he loves his master so much. and he's right back. panting and whining, because fuck he's never been this hard in his life. it's utterly humiliating for him but he's so desperate for release. with puppy eyes he begs for more of your touch and attention.
can we arturolinqs have headcanons for him puttinq makeup on reader. idk why i just said whatever came to mind :3
Somehow I managed to misread this and wrote a ficlet instead um. Sorry for the wait as well. Also I know nothing about makeup tbh. i don't like how this turned out but we must feed the 10 people known as the arturo masses
"You look like you're dying.." Arturo sighed. He ran a finger across the bags under your eyes. "God, how are you sleeping??"
"I've actually been sleeping pretty well lately... they just won't go away."
"Sure." He rolled his eyes and grabbed what you assumed to be some sort of concealer. However, with how you had to be perfectly still you could not see just what it was. Why he was so insistant on that was beyond you.
When his cold hands once again met your cheeks you noticed how warm they really were. "Stop blushing so much, I can't see what I'm working with!"
After an eternity he's done, looking at you with what seems to be a hint of a smile. "Well, now you're at least bearable to look at."
How Arturo, Hu & Rose (separate) would react to you confessing your romantic feelings for them.

He'd be disgusted. He'd tell you to get out of his sight and really just dig into your skin how unworthy you are. Afterwards though, he wouldn't be able to stop thinking about the encounter. Without him realizing, you'd really start growing on him. He'd just start appreciating little things about you. Until eventually (as in, weeks or even months after your confession) he'd realize he *would* actually like to be with you. But of course, he can't just go up directly to you and say all of this. He just starts acting *nicer* around you. This starts before he's consciously realised his attraction to you, in fact. Gradually this becomes more and more... weird and boundary-breaking. But he also won't admit anything? He's still very conflicted :')
If you've moved on by this point, well, it's just awkward and uncomfortable... It's not as insane as it is with J in canon, because he would not be as open with how he feels here, but still, it's quite a mess altogether.
If you haven't moved on and still like him, the fact that he's warming up to you is nothing but overwhelmingly joyous. You end up eventually telling him that that old offer of yours still stands. He may seem reluctant still, but this time he accepts your confession. You cautiously hug him and notice the slightest hint of blush on his face as he hugs back (speaking of which he'd be surprisingly good at giving hugs... despite everything about him they're very warm and homely.)
She'd be surprised but very appreciative.
If it's non-killing game AU, she'd probably accept your confession. She might not come off as super excited over it, but she is! Things would go at a very healthy pace too, you're just generally a really good couple. Also, I think she'd want to abstain from naughty business until you're both a bit older.
If it is in the killing game though, she'd probably reject you. She'd be very polite about it, and clear that it's only because of the bizarre circumstances. She's already pretty overwhelmed after all.
She wouldn't fall asleep during the confession lol. She'd be flustered - less in a cutesy was and more panicked. She really doesn't think she has the ability to, on top of everything, manage a relationship. Unlike Hu though, this would still apply in a non-killing game AU. As your friendship grows though, she'd start properly seeing that genuine connection is not at all a hindrance but rather an asset to alleviate stress.
If she didn't have feelings for you before your confession, you'd continue as friends. She wouldn't develop romantic feelings by this point, but you'd become inseparable best friends nevertheless.
If she did have feelings beforehand, she might just confess to you. Or she'd start acting a bit shyly with you. Would you confront her about it? If so, she wouldn't try to hide it anyway. She's open to be with you romantically now.
Thank you lots for reading! It's uhh probably very obvious I have a bias... Additionally this was written instead of sleeping, with no beta, so please excuse any oddities stemming from that. Requests are open as well!
