Funny concept for your Slasher boys (this could apply to plex and DND too i think) pre and post relationship
Reader has a fictional crush they're very vocal about!
Bonus points if that character is nothing like any of them!
I think this is silly to think about, but also kind of real, you know? Sometimes we do get obsessed with characters and I think it scares and can make partners worried or they can just love that you are having fun! It's interesting to see which way it goes.
Plex boys will think it's cute and will try to learn as much about the character as possible to talk with you about them. At times they might get a little nervous because they are just animatronics and your character could easily become an AI put into a robot and suddenly they would have competition, but that's them worrying of the worst case scenario that will truly never happen. Usually it's just them listening about this character and thinking you have a lot of love in your heart. Though they do question if the character is nothing like them. That confuses them. Why this one in specific again?
D&D boys partially have no room to talk. Soleil is OBSESSED with so many wizards, who yes may be real, but there is no chance of him getting with or even meeting most of them. (Some are dead if not most, so he's really not going to meet them.) He's also obsessed with Mystra, who very much isn't like Atlas, and may not be very much like you. So, who is he to talk when you are constantly talking about a fictional character when he constantly talks about his beloved fancy and cool wizards. Atlas gets a little ticked off at both of you for this. He's a perfectly good Tiefling boyfriend right in front of both of you. Show him some attention once in a while. He feels like you never talk about him like you do your fictional characters, so he gets a little jealous.
Slasher boys really do try to let you enjoy your character, but they've got some heavy jealousy running through their veins that is going to make it hard for them to play along. Soleil is going to get pouty and whiny about it. He may verbally say that you seem to like the character more than him and Attie, and he seems to actually mean it. It makes him worried that you don't actually like them, especially if this character is quite different. He's going to start asking what you do like about him and Attie that compares to this fictional character. Talk about them too! They would like it 🥺 Soleil just wants to make sure you actually like them and that they aren't just placement holders for your affection.
Atlas just gets a little grumpy. Yes, he knows you love this character. Yes it was cute at first, he loved your passion. But now they take up so much of your conversations and comments and it makes him honestly a little sad inside. You'll make him the tiniest bit insecure with it, even though he logically knows this fictional character is nothing for him to worry about. He honestly just wants a good amount of your attention. If you give him plenty, he won't care as much about the fictional character, but he might poke that he's scared you're going to run away with them and marry them when he isn't looking.
D&D au Soleil and Atlas getting healing from reader? (Idk if it would be different)
So this is different among a lot of D&D players and DMs and such, but I imagine healing feels different being received from each different person! Like one of my clerics I imagine it feels like it’s burning you as he heals you because of some backstory stuff, so it’s not really pleasant despite being healed, but I have other ideas where it feels like water washing over you as you are healed by someone, or it’s just pleasantly warm. I have a friend who plays a war-forged bard and I feel like being healed by her might feel a bit electrical in a way! So, I am going off the idea that it feels special!
Pre Relationship!
I feel like Wizard Soleil is really nervous. He’s been healed by many people and not all have been pleasant. So, when you offer to heal him, he’s holding his breath. BUT I feel like Cleric Reader has a pleasant feeling healing, so Soleil is happy to be surprised. He probably sighs with it almost too comfortably. Like it feels too nice and he’s a little too enthusiastic to be getting healed by you. It might sound a little weird, and he only catches it after and apologizes saying he just doesn’t like to be in pain or injured! He just likes to feel at the top of his health, promise!! And he is much too embarrassed about getting so comfortable with it with you. Atlas teases him.
Barbarian Atlas gets hurt all the time. He’s front row and basically a human shield for Soleil, and now you. You probably end up healing him pretty early on and quite often, and it’s probably during your initiative turn order. So, he probably barely notices you heal him. He just kind of takes it, feels a little better, assumes it’s you, says his quick thanks, and keeps fighting. After, you probably heal him again, and he pays more attention to, and he tells you in feels nice and that you are lucky to have such a nice touch. He may or may not be flirting.
Post Relationship!
Soleil looks forward to you healing him! It feels special and he loves the attention. He gets a little giddy but does whine to you about being hurt and how he needs your healings hands 🥺🥺 He’ll perish if you don’t heal him!! (He’s down 5 hp MAX out of his total hp. He is just looking to get you to be nice to him and heal him and dote on him because he got hurt in the first place.) (This man is a baby.)
Atlas gets cocky with it. Oh? You want to use healing hands? He’s making you touch his ass or both sides of his chest. He could be down to 2 hp and would still make you do it so long as danger isn’t in the way of his attempts at flirting. You tell him it’s not very flirty if he’s bleeding everywhere. He says it just makes it dramatic, now slap his ass and heal him. Or fondle his chest, he does give you the choice in case you don’t want to be so bold! He’d give you a third option which would be THE BOLDEST choice, but he doesn’t think you’re ready for him to ask that of you.
So I went to dndbeyond ( the actual link in case you or anyone else wants it XD ) to try to look up and learn more species (though it's 'view details' button just sends you to the book/pack so it's not super helpful imo XD) and saw that changeling is a race/type! (though idk if it's a 'playable' one though I did see it listed on another site as one)
And then thought that maybe reader could be that, so that self inserts could then be canonically any race! and still be able to fit any fic/drabbles that might come in the future XD
ofc you don't have to go with that but I thought it was interesting enough to mention (and has the added bonus of reader switching up things in the bedroom to keep Atlas on his toes, or y'know maybe off of them XD)
but I also don't know enough to know if clerics can be any race or how any of that stuff goes so this might just be crazy ramblings from an ignorant bear XD
I have a friend who has a changeling character from a campaign!! I guess I never thought of having reader be a changeling 🤔 and you can be any race with any class!! At least that’s how every game I’ve ever seen/played has worked that way! I know some people get hung up on what alignment you are with getting to play paladins the class, but I believe you should be able to be any alignment with any class as well. That’s just my opinion on that and how my games are played!! (DnDBeyond can be stinky sometimes with just sending you to books, I agree that it’s frustrating. I usually have better luck looking on roll20 I think!)
The beauties of having Atlas getting to ask the reader what to look like for the night is so silly yet kind of cute? to me. I can see him telling you to surprise him so often. Lucky lads him and Soleil would be!!
How many riding jokes is atlas making if the reader is a centaur
At least one a week if you are uncaring about them being told. Maybe more if you seem to take them nicely and maybe less if you do not.
If Atlas figures out you are strong enough to hold his weight and carry him as you walk like riding an actual horse, twice as much as that because now their is more to ride.
Soleil hates him for it. Atlas thinks he is hilarious.
Is there a reader in the dnd au if so how did they meet the boys
Yes there is, but they are way more of a loose idea than most of my readers.
Basically reader is someone they meet along the way on their adventures, probably one where they are traveling from Baldur's Gate to Waterdeep (Good luck with that, you are going to get jumped) that I would hope would be a cleric (Because please these stupid boys need a cleric because neither can fucking heal to save their lives, literally) that they would keep kind of running into and kind of combining their work together to make things easier 1. Because doing things alone is very hard even if you are a decent level so sticking with them gives you some buff and help in areas you might need it and 2. They would like a healer. Please god give them a healer they are STUPID and have no healing abilities besides potions and they can only carry so many. I truthfully do not think Soleil's Con score is that great, I think it's pretty pathetic, and his strength? I don't think it's much better if any, and as a Barbarian/Monk, there is very little Atlas can do about either of those things. Save poor Soleil's weak ass if he gets hurt. Atlas can only prevent him from getting hurt as much as possible.
But you all probably run into each other so many times that Soleil probably just suggests you work together! They get pretty good jobs, so they don't mind splitting three ways and you look like you could use some company when the roads are long and can be lonely! (Atlas isn't thrilled about this at first, no more one bed inn rooms 😔 but he'll still make it two beds when he asks for the room just so he can get a snuggle in at the least. Soleil hates him for it because he gets embarrassed to have you know that he and Atlas share a bed.)
Also funny haha for you, I 100% believe that Soleil has thrown a healing potion at Atlas before to have it crack on his skull and douse him in it to absorb it that way. Atlas probably yelled that he was a brat for it.
Plans for the future/ End goal- growing up and currently-
Like what do they wish for in their future?
Sorry if this sounds vague-
Bonus question (silly/ just wanted to show this funny image): Would the boi's still love reader if they were a worm 🥺
-🦎
I apologize to see you are still stuck in horny jail. My condolences 😔 but I will answer that bonus question at the end <3
The D&D boys!!! Damn, making me do research of history and consulting my experts for Soleil because I have to get all his wizardy shit in line. (I don't play wizards. My intelligence is never that high. I'm a charisma baby and naturally born to hit things with a stick for some reason because I go head straight into battle and whap things even with my spells being available.)
Growing up, Wizard Soleil dreamt of being like Elminster. I think he'd also be very interested in being one of Mystra's chosen! I don't doubt that he still dreams of that quite honestly. He didn't dream of originally becoming a bard along with a wizard, but the multi-classing seemed beneficial to him and he thought he'd get farther with it (and it reminded him of him mom, no shade on him for that, a little mommy's boy.) I think he'd look up to all of the Blackstaff. He probably talks Atlas's ear off about all of the impressive wizards he grew up learning about and knowing about. I don't know if he'd necessarily dream of being a Blackstaff, but I think he'd dream of being as influential and powerful as one, or really more so than that. I think he'd eventually dream of becoming The Magister of Mystra as he got older and understood more than just being a chosen. He wants crazy power and to be able to do insane amounts of things while being able to be a hero of the realms. He believes he has what it takes and has practiced for so long just for those goals. His father, Theo, actually also had those goals as a Wizard, too. A sort of passing on a dream to his child situation because he felt it was time to give up on his own dreams with becoming anything important to Mystra and focus on someone that might be able to.
Soleil's end goal is power and intelligence where no foe would ever frighten him again. He'd be a hero that no one would face. He would be remembered in history and touched by the gods himself (I mean, as an Aasimar, he's already been touched by the heavens by being a descendent of a celestial being (His mama 🥺.) soooo he's close.)
He also has end goals with Atlas and reader eventually. Dreams of them rising up with him and becoming incredible heroes. But eventually dreams of a family would get to him. He would wish that adventuring would slow and that things would become more simple. Wish that he could settle down somewhere nice like his parents and give his family a home and always be comfortable and well. He would wish of Atlas never being out in the cold nights alone ever again. He'd wish for once the adventuring is done, he gets to enjoy to quiet and happiness of after. The sort of glowing in your glory and living out the rest of your years seen as someone spectacular, so him and his loved ones would be treated well.
NOW ON TO THE BARBARIAN
Atlas really doesn't have much. He's a go as you go kind of guy. He doesn't think of the future. He's a very now type of man. Always sort of has been. Atlas's growing up end goal was surviving. That's all he'd be able to think about. Just survive. It's lonely. Survive. It's dark and dangerous. Survive. It's cold and he is shivering. Survive. He doesn't have time for dreams, not when you are surviving on the unkind streets.
But eventually, I think he does dream of a future and an end goal. I think it's always pretty obvious that part of Atlas's end goal will always be you and Soleil. You are his people. You are who he loves. He wants an eternity with that. As much time as he can steal with you both, he will. But I think he also dreams of that slow down after a little while like Soleil. I think adventuring would have it's toll on him. I think he'd see too much damage and face too many injuries. I think he'd get tired. I think he'd get sore, too. So he'd want somewhere where he could rest and finally stop being angry. He wouldn't need to use that anymore. He could just relax into being an old Tiefling and be with the people he loves and maybe a few additions if you see it proper. He wouldn't mind some little feisty kids to love himself. Sure, he'd give them his bloodline. They'd be Tieflings like him if he were to have kids of his own, but they'd be his little babies, and he'd protect them from the world if so be it. I think after seeing it, he dreams of Soleil's willow tree in his backyard. Maybe he'd see if after Soleil's parents passed if they would inherit the house so that he could show his children the spot Soleil showed him. It has significance and feels like a place of peace.
And bonus question!!!
If you asked them this they would both say "I guess? Why a worm? Can you choose something else? Are you a nice worm or a mean worm? Do you keep your sentience or are you a worm's sentience? Is everything about you worm or do you somehow still have your eyes?"
They have many questions, but the over all agreement is yes? but why that.
