sooo, I dunno if u still ship fuenoze but this plot have been stuck in my head and i need sb to talk with abt it :Clover are now peaceful af, Nozel and Fuego have been dating with for-their-whole-fucking-life and Nozel are ready af to marry that red head but nooo, his charming fiery bf IS STUPID AF:D not that Fuego doesn't ready, he thinks Nozel love the way their relationship are right now and he respects that, and it just getting worse bc Nozel's ego refuse to be the one who take the next step
Ooooh boy. First of all I am so sorry, Tumblr didnt notify me of this at all?? I dont know since when you're waiting on an answer :(
But Yes! I still do ship it!! And omg, this situation is like Shakespeare meets Jane Austen. You have the comical misunderstandings and miscommunications combined with head strong period characters, and dont tell me that the Silvas would go all Bennet family on this, while Nozel is living that Sense and Sensibility realness.
I love these chaos people, cause their relationship dynamic would be so great? Like, they would be always able to understad the other without many words, cause they know the other so well. But that is also the issue? Cause they never had to work on their communication skills.
And its also a typical pride thing. Nozel wants to be asked the question, wants to be wooed to a degree. He wants the attention and care, cause lets be honest, this man is starved for love, care and affection. He also wants to be able to return that warmth an vulnerability, but the way he was raised and how he is just kind of doesnt help. He sometimes cannot put this all into words, especially spoken ones.
And Leon? Hes too sensible, he doesnt want to encroach on Nozel, doesnt wanna back him into a corner and make Nozel feel like he owes Leon marriage and kids. He is a good man, really, but then he also sucks at communicating his own desires sometimes, and he assumes a little too much sometimes? Like, hes a briliant man and he knows that, but sometimes his emotional intelligence falls a little bit flat, and just because he thinks he knows what Nozel is thinking, he doesnt ask him.
Honestly, what they need is coaching in communication, intervention from their families, lots of meddling and also a very bold and brash commoner that can read ki. Maybe two. Asta and Yami gotta tag team on this.
But honestly, I LOVE your mind! This was great!! If you have any other thought or opinions, please hit me up. I will definitely check my inbox more often now, I am quite mad that I didnt see this until now.
Whoop whoop! Its the day of love and friendship folks.
The lovely @the-demon-drop-on-paper inspired this little Leon x Nozel Scenario.
I hope y’all enjoy and have a nice day <3!
It was still dark outside when he woke up, just before the sun would rise on another cool February day.
A warm hand drawing circles on his upper arm told him, that his Partner, too, couldn’t sleep anymore.
He turned around to face him and was met with a warm smile in a face so familiar, so beloved.
Nozel didn’t know exactly what it was, but something told him, that it would be a good day. Whatever their life would throw at them today, it would be nothing he couldn’t handle, and he felt no worries, sorrows or dark thoughts weighing on his shoulders.
„Good morning. Did you sleep well? “
He shot Fuegoleon a small smile back, riding this wave of an unusual good mood for this time of the day.
„A Good morning indeed. And yes, I did, even though we’re up quite early as it seems. “
Leon’s smile deepened.
„Someone seems content today, but I am glad that you are. How about we take this as an opportunity to have a relaxed breakfast in bed? We should have time enough before we have to go look after the kingdom. “
Nozel pondered a second about the idea. The redhead was right, they easily had hours before they had to leave the house, and he really liked the idea of a lazy morning in bed.
It was a rare treat to spend calm times, even more to share them, with a lifestyle like theirs.
„I will send for the servants, then. “
He started to get up, the covers shifting from his upper body, and he instantly wished to disappear under them again. Lucky for him, the same warm hand that woke him now held him back.
„Wait, let me do it. I don’t want you to freeze to death without your layers of furs. “
Nozel shot him a playfully annoyed look, which was met with a kiss to the top of his head and a deep chuckle.
„You’re welcome! “
Clad in a morning robe, the redhead left the room, only to reappear a short while after.
Nozel thought it weird for a second, that his significant other went out if his way to leave their shared chamber, but his thoughts were soon distracted by a pair of cold feet against his legs.
They playfully bickered until the servants announced that the breakfast was ready and waited to lift the cloches until they left again.
There was a great variety of foods, fruits, meats, different breads, some warm things, like scrambled eggs and bacon, some sweat things like pancakes and marmalade, then water, juice, coffee and tea.
Nozel was in awe, even for royalty, this was truly a lavish breakfast, but he also wondered what the usual so economical thinking Vermillion was thinking by ordering all this.
„Dear God, Leon, did you have them empty the entire pantry on our bed? “
The other, unbothered by this, happily filled his plates with everything in his reach.
„I just thought that I want today to be as perfect as it can be. “
He picked up an orange and held it in front of Nozel, who just shot him a look, but couldn’t really hesitate, so he took it from Leon’s hand, which found his way into his silver hair the moment it was free, putting a wayward hair strand back into place.
„For you, that is. That’s why I had them bring everything, so you could have anything you felt like. “
Nozel smiled at that, averting his eyes, but couldn’t help but add,
„My, you really are a softy, Leon. “
The latter understood the Silva’s gratitude. Others may think him rude, aloof or uncaring, but Nozels language of affection was a bit more hidden and particular. It was really really rare for him to openly display it, even in the privacy of their home.
While talking about the Kingdom, their squads and their plans for the day, they slowly started to finish their plates.
Leon let himself fall back into the pillows.
“Oh my, I don’t think I will be able to eat anything again until dinner. “
Nozel threw a pointed look at the others exposed stomach, where the shirt had ridden up a bit.
“Nothing? Really? I guess I’ll have to throw these away then “
He said this in a playfully disappointed tone, while grabbing something that he’d hidden in his bed stand. It was a elegantly wrapped box of chocolates.
Leon was up in a second. He’d recognize that wrapping anywhere.
“No way, you really went all the way to the heart kingdom just for my favourite brand? “
“It wasn’t really that long of a trip, only took a day. “
He was obviously happy about the Vermilions excitement. It had actually been kind of a hassle, what with the chocolatier insisting he was retired. But seeing a look not unequal to a child’s staring at a holiday feast in those usually so blue eyes, really made it worth it.
Leon pulled him into a kiss, tasting like coffee and unbrushed teeth, which had Nozel crinkle his nose.
“Thank you, Nozel. Also don’t worry, I have something for you that’ll hopefully taste better than me right now. “
That baffled the Silva. Leon knew he usually didn’t really enjoy the taste of things as sweet as chocolate, and even if it was darker, he had to be struck by a certain want for it to really eat it.
Fuegoleon had usually found other substitutes, like paying for dinner, or gifts in form of inedible things.
The Vermillion took something from the ground beside his side of the bed. It was another tray of their breakfast food, whose sheer mass he used to hide this one like a tree in the woods.
Carefully Nozel lifted the cloche, and saw that underneath there was a small tarte, topped with oranges and a thin layer of dark chocolate.
Leon managed to pull a spoon out of nowhere, it seems, and curiosity overtook him as he tried a bite of the delicious looking pastry.
It was perfect! More sour than sweet, citrus cream, orange gelée, and the chocolate wasn’t too dominating.
He smiled at how well the, currently widely grinning Vermillion knew him.
He put down the spoon and pulled him into a kiss.
“I love it. “
Another kiss.
“I love you.”
Leon felt his heart beat picking up at hearing this. It truly was a rare treat, but it was the best of all.
When Fuegoleon and Nozel first met for joined magic training lessons, both lost some hair and thus their lifelong rivalry was born.
They respect eachother nontheless, because over the time they probably saved each others behind (and braids) a few times.
