A Night Stayed In

Fandom: Elder Scrolls Online

Pairing: Darien Gautier x Fem!Reader

Rating: K

Warning(s): None- as sweet and fluffy as cotton candy.

Words: 468

AN: I had promised at some point to make fluffy Darien Gautier scenarios, and so I deliver. Fashionably late.

Also tagging @lithiumrev because reasons.~ ;D

"Hello, love!" a soft voice called from the kitchen in response to the front door opening. "How did the training go?"

Darien Gautier closed the door and gave a slightly tired noise, "It went well, actually! Things were rough yesterday, but the boys made up for it today." He walked over and gave his sweetheart a kiss on her forehead.

"Glad it went better today," the Vestige responded, stirring the pot in front of her. "New recruits do well?"

"The first group of recruits is doing very well. They'll be ready for the field in no time. The more recent group, however, is not." Darien rolled his eyes at the thought. "Pretty sure they wouldn't know their asses from a hole in the ground."

The Vestige threw her head back laughing. "If you, of all people, are saying that then there must be no hope for them."

Darien shook his head, "Probably not. However if you were there, it would be different."

"Who? Me? Nooooo," she replied with bemused sarcasm. "They would never respond to me."

He gave her a level look, "Some of our equals are terrified of you."

"Then they are intelligent individuals."

A wry chuckle came from Darien as he turned to start taking his armor off. As he worked at the fasteners, he asked "By the way, what's that you're making? It smells amazing."

When they had moved in together, they agreed to share the cooking duties, and tonight it was her turn. And he had been looking forward to it all day.

"Oh just something simple, stew and bread."

Darien's head whipped around. "Fresh bread?"

"Yes." There was a chuckle and the thud of a baking tray. "Fresh bread."

~*~

The rest of the evening was spent in well-deserved leisure. Darien and the Vestige, wrapped in each other's arms, feeling the overall closeness of each other's bodies, and their selves. The warmth of the fireplace brought a gentle calm to the cozy house.

The bed was extra comfortable tonight, with both soldiers home. The Vestige leaned back against the pillows as she softly ran her hand through Darien's hair. His arms snaked around her torso, holding her in place as he rested his head against her collarbone. He was so close he could smell the afterscent of her baking, and she could smell the sweat and rust of his armor.

They lay there in silence, breathing in each other's scents, with the occasional light forehead and cheek kiss here and there. As sleep started to take and they snuggled into the blankets, Darien couldn't help but think how lucky he was. The two had literally been to Oblivion and back, fighting tooth and nail. And now he was laying in her arms, listening to her heartbeat.

He wouldn't have it any other way.

Nano-mals Unleashed: A Bunny’s Encounter with the Future of Play

[duelingdestiny]

Akefia was exhausted and, too lazy to go home, had invited himself into Atem's bed. Somehow, they'd ended up lying together, Akefia interested in playing a game they'd played before. He didn't even ask before he sleepily pressed his lips to Atem's.

It had been a long and strange day. He wasn’t certain how they had gotten here, but Atem was too tired to think about it right now. He barely even startled when Akefia kissed him. Still, he pulled back. “Don’t do something you’re going to yell at me for in the morning.” He teased gently.
