Classic, Fell, Swap, Killer, Dust, Horror, Nightmare, and Lust with a touch starved reader!
— He realizes you’re touch-starved long before you say anything. He's very observant in general, but even more when it comes to you;
— He starts small: sitting close, brushing your hand with his, leaning his head on your shoulder. It all just to show you that it is okay for you to touch him;
— Will absolutely melt if you initiate contact. He sees it as a huge sign of trust;
— Lets you cling to him during naps or bad days without teasing;
— Gives lazy, warm hugs that last as long as you want (and the hugs are amazing);
“They’ve gone too long without this… I’ll make sure they never feel alone again.”
— At first he’s stiff and... awkward. He's not used. Physical affection wasn’t common in his AU;
— But the moment he understands that you need touch, he becomes extremely protective. Will pull you against his chest when he senses you getting tense or overwhelmed;
— Acts grumpy but gives affection like it’s his job (he doesn't like to start it because he doesn't want to look clingy);
— Hates when others touch you casually, that’s his territory. Who dared to put their nasty hands on what belongs to him?
“If they need comfort, they’ll get it from me. Only me.”
— He LOVES touching and being touched, so he’s overjoyed that you want affection, specifically from him!!
— Will hug you every morning, every night, and every time he walks past you. Veeeeery gentle and considerate. Asks “Is this okay?” until he learns your boundaries.
— Holds your hand constantly. Gives surprise forehead kisses that make your chest warm.
— Due to his busy life he doesn't always have time, but makes it up to you every single time;
“They deserve so much love… I’ll make sure they feel it every day!”
— Excited the moment he realizes you’re touch-starved — “Ohhh, so you want ME to touch you? Great idea.”
— Playful and teasing, but surprisingly soft when he senses you’re overwhelmed;
— Offers piggyback rides, pulls you into his lap, throws an arm around you for no reason, picks you up (definitely not to show off his strength);
— When you cling to him, he shuts up instantly and holds you close, burying his head in your neck and kissing it;
“This is cute. They’re cute. I love it when they need me.”
— Is confused at first — no one has really wanted affection from him. He didn't even know one could crave touch... until he met you;
— Once he realizes you’re touch-starved, he becomes almost shy about giving you affection;
— Lets you lean on him, hold his jacket, cling to his hoodie, anything. Feel free to touch him hun;
— He won’t initiate often, but if you do? He melts. Quietly, privately. Gives very gentle, careful hugs, like he’s afraid to hurt you.
“They trust me… They really trust me.”
— His instinct is to immediately comfort and protect;
— Very warm hugs, strong but never crushing (only if you request), he’s very aware of his strength.
— Likes having you on his lap or tucked under his arm. Also inside his jacket... like, you're hugging him and he zips up his jacket so you can't escape;
— Will run his claws gently through your hair (shockingly soothing). Makes a deep humming sound when he cuddles you.
“They deserve softness. I can give ’em that.”
— He notices your touch-starvation instantly. He felt the loneliness. Wants to be the one who fills that void. And no one else;
— His affection is smooth, controlled, and surprisingly tender;
— Brushes strands of hair from your face, caresses your cheek with those cold bones, rests his hand at the small of your back to guide you, allows you to sit on his lap/next to him while he's working or reading;
— When you cling to him, he becomes still, but wraps one of his tentacles/tendrils around you slowly. Speaking of it, one of them is always touching you;
“They crave warmth… I can be the one they run to. I will be the one they run to.”
— He completely understands being touch-starved, and respects that your touch needs are emotional, not necessarily physical;
— In his AU touches are usually sexual, and having someone who wants him to BE AFFECTIONATE? He might cry;
— Gives warm, grounding hugs with one hand rubbing your back. Super gentle and attentive, always checking your comfort;
— He actually loves cuddling, but will never push you into anything beyond what you want;
— Scatters soft, affectionate kisses on your cheeks, forehead, shoulders, the back of your hand, anything (he's always doing to you what he wants you to do to him);
“Everyone deserves affection. Especially someone as sweet as them.”
Hope you enjoyed! Don't forget to drink water ;)
