Weak (Arjuna | Archer [Fate/Grand Order] X Reader)
Head tucked beneath Arjuna’s chin, you sighed in content as you snuggled closer to your beloved. Thanks to your meager stature of 157cm, he was at a perfect height for cuddling especially whenever you tuck yourself into the crook of his neck despite being of average stature himself.
There are some advantages to being so ‘smol’ after all.
Though your arms could barely wrap themselves around his body, it doesn’t stop you from trying to clutch him as close to you as possible. “Arju is the best pillow in the world!” You exclaim, further embarrassing the Flustered Hero as he is forced to bear the brunt of your adorable attacks. “Always warm and smelling like cinnamon…I could just eat you up…”
Arjuna swore under his breath in his native tongue, sweat dripping down in rivulets as he fought the urge to lay a hand on you as you smothered him in affection and praise from your perch on his lap.
He’d had several wives and children in his past life and he wouldn’t even bat an eyelash with each new wife he acquired.
But this?
The flustered hero was at a loss.
When you stared at him with bright orbs partially hidden beneath soft lashes and smiled so adorably, the tanned male froze in place. “Did I ever tell you how handsome and cute you are? Because I would very much love to just spend the rest of my life doing so”
May Lord Indra help him‒
Feather-soft lips pressed against the corner of his mouth, mind screeching to a complete halt.
“See?” The triumphant smile you beamed at him, apparently quite proud over flustering him so, did things to his heart he was unable to put into words. “The cutest in the world” You nodded as if to reaffirm your statement and enforce its legitimacy.
I’m weak
A fact that Arjuna had no qualms admitting to himself if only when it came to you.
Warnings: dragon!Sylus, bad guys thieves getting what they deserve, Sylus being down bad for reader

People came into his mountain, wanting to take away his most treasured item - you.
It was a warm night on the planet called Philos. Most people would be asleep by now, but a group of six people had yet to fall to slumber. Those young men went on a journey to find a treasure from the legends of their city. They have been searching for days and tonight they were finally close to their destination.
The cave on top of the highest mountain was almost impossible to reach, but they were determined and with months of preparation. Not many people would dare to try and set up the journey to that place, after all, the legends and tales were speaking of the Beast protecting the treasures - every person who tried before - ended up never coming back.
However there were still people brave enough to chase their dream for the rewards in a form of countless treasures and riches... They were but a fools blinded by their greedy desires walking straight into the deaths cold hands.
A little after midnight they finally reached their destination.
"We did it! We actually did it!" one of them screamed and the others joined him in cheering until the most calm man in the group stopped them.
"Quiet! We still don't know what may be hiding in there." after those words all of the men quieted down and became wary of their surroundings. Some of them lighting up their torches and the rest pulling out their weapons.
"Is everyone ready?" asked the oldest of the group meeting with head nods and quiet words of confirmation.
No more words have been exchanged, the group went inside the dark cave, conscious of every sound. They were looking around themselfs, studying every wall with their eyes, looking for any hidden entrance in the never ending hall made out of stone. After couple minutes of walking they finally saw a faint flash of light. After exchanging glances they slowly moved towards the sorce of the light. The closer they were, the more blinding it become.
Soon enough, one by one, they walked through the thin entrance to the place they were looking for all this time. Every single one of them stopped breathing for a second after seeing the amount of gold and riches laying all around the huge room.
They spoke about what to do now, not knowing that the owner of the countless treasures was watching them from the shadows, ready to pounce on them the moment they touched his property.
About a minute later they started getting closer to the gold placed in every corner of the room, no matter where they looked, treasures were always in their eyesight. One of them noticed something out of place in the middle of the room. On the small platform made out of stone, was person hidden beneath some kind of dark fabric. Where they dead? Asleep? He couldn't tell.
"Hey, guys... There's someone here." getting the attention of the group, he pointed towards the mysterious person.
"Is that the beast every tale was speaking of?" one of the man asked frighten.
"No, this person... Is a woman... She probably fell victim to the beast." said oldest of the group, slowly walking towards the stone platform, soon noticing a head accessory made out of gold, shaped like a crown. It was like nothing he had seen before, blinding him with the possibility of getting the most prized possession in the cave. All of the men were watching him get close to the girl and when he was close to an arm length and slowly reaching towards the accessory, someone spoke from behind them.
"It seems that my most treasured gem catched your eye." cold, mischievous voice send chills to all the men without exceptions, slowly all of them started turning in it's direction, what catch their eyes was not a person, but a pair of red eyes in the dark corner of the cave, it's eyes burning like fire and even through they couldn't tell what creature was their owner, they were sure that it was dangerous, the look thrown by the eyes was mocking, as if daring them to make a move "Why so scared? I can hear your heartbeats from over here. You were so sure of yourself not so long ago, making plans involving my treasure. Go ahead, take it if you dare."
Everyone remained frozen, too scared to move, afraid of what that... Thing would do to them for taking what they wanted. Man who remained close to the girl started thinking, there was no way that thing will let them walk away with it's treasure, it seem that he forgot the very first words spoken to them by the... Beast? Could the beast talk? Was it human all along? It didn't matter what it was, it was dangerous, that very thing was obvious. He looked at the girl, whom they all though was dead. Noticing that she layed there with jewelry all over her, looking expensive enough to feed their families for years to come, he decided that the only thing they could take away from here was the woman herself, after all, why would the beast need that human to stay here and root? He finally asked.
"We won't take your gold. We just want to leave with the girl. Take her body back to her family." he was trying his best to sound confident, but his appearance betrayed him, giving clear image of the man fears. The red eyes looked straight at him, as if seeing through the lies about him knowing the girl's family.
"You want the girl? Or the gold and gems she's wrapped in?" the voice asked, again with a hint of mockery. His questions was meet with silence. Six men started looking at each other in panic, trying to communicate with their eyes "You don't have an answer?" the beast let out quiet laugh, sounding amused "But your greedy eyes speak for themselfs."
Finally, the beast took a couple of steps closer, the men finally getting a clear image of the thing... Man, that was talking to them all this time. Their gazes full of fear looked at the black, sharp horns and the powerful tail, waving slowly behind the beast, as if what was going on right now was absolutely normal for him, like another boring chore.
"You should choose your words more carefully." he started unhurriedly walking to the girl still laying in the middle of the room "It's one thing to come here, looking for gold and riches to keep for yourself. But how dare you think that I would let you take my one and only priceless treasure." he stopped right before the woman, gently brushing her cheek with his claw. She moved slightly, as if trying to cuddle up to the man whose touch she could recognize even in her sleep. Suddenly the group of men felt something tying around their mouth, as if invisible thing was keeping them from talking, they tried screaming, but the only sounds that left them were quiet moans and groans, they couldn't open their mouth. Some kind if red mist was getting more and more visible before their eyes "Now, now. We wouldn't want to wake up the lady, would we?" the beast spoke, still perfectly calm and collected. What exactly is he? All of the foolish men though "Don't worry, it will be quick and painless." what happened after those words left his mouth is better left unsaid. That group of men won't be able to tell the tales of their journey.
Some time later, in the quietness of the cave, soft sound of woman yawn broke through the silence of the place. She slowly raised from her 'bed' and stretched a bit while sitting.
"My sleepy princess finally decided to wake up. Did you enjoy your slumber?" the girl turned her head in the direction where the voice was coming from. Her eyesight catching her dragon sitting on the throne made of gold, watching her every move with the warm in his eyes reserved only for her.
The girl slowly raised from her makeshift bed, fixed her dress as to not appear like she just slept for couple of hours without care in the world about what could happen during her slumber time. She started walking towards the dragon, making eye contact with him and watching as the slith smile appears on his handsome face. When she got close enough, his tail wrapped around her waist, pulling her towards him, she ended up sitting on the armrest of the golden throne with her legs thrown on top of his own.
"Did something happened when I was sleeping?" she cuddled up to him and started playing with his hair. His eyes focused on her face, looking relaxed placed on his arm, her eyes closed as if she was about to get back to her slumber. His clawed hand started slow movement across her back, as if petting a cat.
"No, why would you think that?" she frowned at his words, clearly not believing him.
"Then why there's a sword laying right next to where I slept, which quality is way too bad for it to ever catch your eye?" her eyes opened to look at his, with a grin on her mouth. He smirked, he keeps forgetting just how clever and attentive she is.
"Hm you got me there, some... Fools wanted to take my treasure away from me so I simply showed them their place." she shaked her head slightly, not believing in the audacity of some people. Who would make a poor decision like this? Who would walk straight into the claws of a dragon wrath? Either way that's not her concern. Once again she cuddled up to her lover and kissed his check.
"I wonder... What kind of treasure is worth more than someone's life. When will people stop coming here in the hopes of getting lucky enough to get some gold coins and coming back to their family in one piece." one of his hands continued it's movement on her back, while the second found it's place on her legs, playing with the soft fabric of her dress.
"They wanted not only gold, but also my precious gem. I couldn't let them have that, now, could I?" his hand from her back traveled to her hair, fixing the jewelry on her head and untying some of the little cnots it found on it's way.
"You really do care for me that much huh? I'm flattered." her giggles sounded right under his ear, he felt her warm breath on his neck and lowered his head to rest against her own.
"You should know very well that I adore you. There is no love purer that mine." he closed his eyes, relaxing and felt her breath stopping for a couple of seconds after those words left his mouth. It wasn't the first time she heard that sentence from him, but each time was special in it's own, unique way. Soon enough, she nuzzled her nose into his neck, even more relaxed than before.
"My dragon." her whisper reached his ears. His smirk turned into a soft smile and his tail curled up a little tighter around her "Don't you dare to leave me, ever." suddenly her voice gave away her fears, something he wasn't expecting of her, she wasn't one to let herself act vulnerable, always keeping that stubborn attitude of hers, trying to prove to him her strength.
"I wouldn't dare to." he answered confidently, his hands and tail keeping her close to his body, sharing his warm with her, a contrast to otherwise chilly cave.
Summary: After the events of Amnesia Memories, you move in with your teasing, loving boyfriend. Living together you see him in a whole different light.
A commission for @bluebenz2005. This proved to be quite challenging, and I had to skim through Amnesia Later in order to really capture his character. He grows so much since Amnesia Memories and all you have to do is listen to the way he speaks to hear it.

Water splashing, the two of you panted as you ran through the pouring rain. Ikki’s jacket barely providing shelter from the downpour.
“Just a little further, we’re almost home,” your boyfriend encouraged, smiling despite the rain.
“Why are you grinning like that?” you asked, curious.
“Oh am I? Sorry, it’s uncool of me.” Ikki pushed his wet hair out of his face as he tried suppressing his smile, but it just broke through again, like warm sunshine after a storm. “I always wanted to do this,” he sheepishly admitted. “Come closer. No one can see us in this rain.”
“We’re close enough.”
“If you say that, you’ll have to make it up to me later. At home. Where I can have you to myself,” he said, pausing each time to let the words sink in. Your face flushed in an instant, and for once you were thankful to be soaked. At least then, you could blame it on the cold. Flustered, you tugged on your side of his jacket, pulling him along at your pace.

"Hurry!" She tugs on his hand, pulling him along faster up the stairs of their hotel. Vanitas chuckles a little, but lets her pull him along.
"And just where are we going?" His question is met with a smile thrown over Y/n's shoulder. He shakes his head as they reach the door on top.
They had been with the others downstairs, enjoying a few drinks when Y/N had glanced over to the clock. Vanitas remembers how her eyes widened and how quickly she stood up, snatching his wrist and hurrying up the stairs.
"If you were this desperate to get me alone, you could've just said-"
"Oh shush!" She says, though she feels her face heat up at the comment. Crude as always, he was. Opening the door, the two of the step in, Vanitas closing it behind him with a click.
The two are immediately met with a cool breeze, and as they approach the railing on the edge of the balcony, Vanitas realises just how far up they were. They had a clear view in front of them, car tiny toys driving along the miniature roads. The stars shine clear and bright, a splattering of colour punctuating the dark sky.
Her hand in his is a source of warmth from the chilly air outside.
Y/N sighs with a smile and leans on the railing.
"How beautiful is it?" She looks down, and then up at the sky. She had found this spot yesterday, but had held of telling him.
"I do appreciate the view." Vanitas admits, pressing himself to her side and letting go of her hand in favour of wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her close. "but what exactly are we doing up here?"
Before she can answer, the distant sound of voice drifts towards them. A countdown. It suddenly clicks and all Y/N has to do is smile and point to the sky.
"3...2...1!" The chorus of voices yells joyfully.
The sky lights up up colour, popping sounds introducing massive explosions of red, yellow and orange. The display is magnificent and grand. Vanitas only has a second to register the sounds of fireworks being deployed, he doesn't even get a chance to see them, before he feels her grab his collar and drag him into a sweet kiss.
Smiling after the initial surprise, he wraps both arms around her, pulling her closer with a hum.
It's a picture perfect shot.
Pulling away, huffing out a laugh when Vanitas chases her mouth, she presses their foreheads together.
"Happy new year." She whispers, for there was no need to speak above a mumble for him to hear. "I wanted to celebrate it with you."
"Happy new year, sweetheart." He replies with a grin, more than happy about the turn of events.
He's never had anything like this. Never celebrated anything this intimately with anyone before. He's never had anyone show him this kind of love, the type that makes him warm inside and crave more.
He decides, as they watch the sky pop with colour, that he doesn't mind this kind of love.
Hey guys. I have been thinking about write something to connect us to Aza in his past days as an angel. I hope you enjoy it. ^.^
When a God dies
A cold wind blew in the middle of that clear night. He watched the moon in the north, lying beneath a giant oak.
This one, reigned absolute in the skies, gleaming, as well as his hair, which so clear, looked like silver liquid.
Such a night was atypical in that season. At least it had been in the last 2000 years.
The wind howled sadly deep inside, making the fragile body beside him shrink and seek for heat. He found it beneath those large, white wings, the same ones that she waited to see on the horizon whenever he was forced to leave.She clung tightly to his arm as she touched him, still sleepy.
He smiled, almost without realizing it. He had never fully become accustomed to this human habit, but he practiced it without even realizing it. This and so many others who invaded him before he could realize it. Everything thanks to her. To those sweet and audacious eyes that broke his convictions. Before her, all she could get for humanity was neglect. He had been used to saw them like ants. He thought them foolish, weak, imperfect, and dependent on useless things. Yes, he thought human feelings useless.
To him, a god, what could be more imperfect? Ironically, such feelings flooded him like a wave after he knew her.
The contempt turned into curiosity for humans. Curiosity gave way to affection. And when he thought it was complete, came the one that would be the most revolutionary feeling, love. This, he discovered to be the overwhelming force that all the living would find at some point of existence. Such discoveries, however, were his greatest secret.
He was not allowed to love them or touch them. He nonetheless already enjoyed them both. He did not regret it.
She shifted again. He, distractedly staring at the starry sky, turned down as he realized he was being watched. He stood with the orbs that had so changed him. Cherishim and lilac in a declaration of mutual affection.
“I love you.” He said, this time without hesitation. He had tried in every way not to get involved, but he’d failed mediocrely. All roads led to her. And once they had each other, he knew he would not be at peace without she. To keep such feeling he would risk anything. Even if it meant becoming a fallen.
She looked deep into his eyes, knew what to stand beside her, a mere mortal, it would cost someone like him.
Her fingers moved around his neck, lightly touching his skin. Besides so delicate touch, it made him shudder. She knew that he was sensitive at this point and did not like to appear vulnerable. He knew that he would protest and took advantage of this breach to steal a kiss.
From surprised to completely embarrassed, he tried to hide his face. She then held him, with both hands. He deposited another kiss, this time deeper and more passionate and answered only;
- Me too.
He then rested his head on her lap, letting her caress. The warmth of her body and the sweet smell that made him fall asleep.
She slept with that smell and all she saw in her dreams was her face. I could still see him, even now. It was no more than a mere memory. Blotted out by the centuries.
He could still see her face, even if they had plucked out their eyes instead of his arm. It was there, projected forever in the depths of memory.
Sweet as honey, painful as the cut of the sword he had received from his friend and mentor, the same one who told him about humans and how they can change a God.
This was his punishment. Only by knowing what love was.
There, in the dark heart of the mountain he called a prison, he realized that it was not the love that had made him fall. He would make him reborn.
He could feel the change protruding, expanding out of himself. Black and shapeless, just like everything inside his heart. There the angel died and the demon was born .
Can you do a sandalphon x shy fem reader pls??? He's literally my favorite from gbf
he's my favorite too <33 (well, him and lucilius ofc)
sandalphon x shy!femreader
or in which sandalphon tries to kiss you for the first time.
"Why are you shaking so much?"
Sandalphon's voice came out rougher than he intended it to when he had his arms securely locked around your waist.
You were finally ready. Finally ready to kiss him that is after a whole year of dating. And Sandalphon was a patient man. Not once has he ever pressured you into something you didn't want to.
But you were ready to kiss him. You were ready to be a real couple like the ones you read in books and see in all the towns you visit.
However, you were still very nervous, and when you voiced your nervous concerns to Sandalphon, he offered to fly you both up high and far away from anyone's prying eyes on the Grandcypher. And you had agreed.
Which was how you found yourself locked in his embrace. His wings easily keeping you both afloat as the clouds shielded you two.
"Is it the height?"
He asked a bit more gently this time.
You shook your head and gave him a shaky look, your lips wobbling and all pouty.
"What if I'm not a good kisser?"
You were always so soft and delicate. Easy to make cry if pushed hard enough. And it was always so cute to him. He never voiced these thoughts though, but it was definitely hard to control himself when you acted like that. (Not that you were "acting" perse, it was just your personality that he loved very much.)
"Then we can practice."
The moment the words left his mouth, he could see how your whole face erupted into flames. Your cheeks growing embarrassingly hot and your ears turning a bright red.
Though, he wasn't worried about flustering you, because he could immediately feel how you relaxed in his hold. And when you closed your eyes and tilted your face up to him.
Well, let's just say he was glad that he took you far away from the other crew members.
