Hi! I’ve been carving some skeptic content lately, and I was wonder if you can do a skeptic x reader domestic life + pregnancy fic? Maybe with a dash of family life aswell?
yes yes yes YES i adore a lil domestic skeptic!!! i'm going to change it up a bit to omit pregnancy and just change it to expecting a child (so you can envision it as either pregnancy or adoption!), so that everyone can enjoy!

[Skeptic x GN!Reader]
[Contents: GN!Reader; No gendered descriptions for reader; Written in third person with “[Name]” instead of “y/n” so OCs can be included!; Fluff; Domestic life; Raising a kid.]
[Shoutout to @thotsforvillainrights for their idea on Skeptic's daughter, Tomoko!]
[Content warnings: None I can think of!]
“…A baby?” Tomoyasu repeats the words back to his spouse, pausing his furious typing on his home office computer – a sleek, dual monitor beauty that he considered to be his child. At least for now, since the current conversation was suggesting otherwise. “That’s quite the step in life, dear. Are you sure?”
Over the years, Tomoyasu’s personality had changed drastically since the first time he met his partner. Back then, he would have openly laughed at the idea of being a father, or at being in a relationship in the first place. He was Skeptic of the Meta Liberation Army! The CEO of Feel Good Inc.! A secretive and undercover villain previously wanted by the entire country of Japan! As if he’d ever have the time or security to settle down and start a family, he barely even had the patience to deal with full grown adults.
But, again, that was years ago. Now, he found himself taking more time off, taking better care of himself by sleeping a little more regularly and eating proper meals. Tomoyasu even managed to get rid of the deep bags under his eyes, at least to a level that wasn’t concerning. And it was all thanks to [Name], his wonderfully understanding and patient lover, who would bite back whenever he got snippy with them. It’s because of their kind yet stern care that he was able to develop a healthier routine, slowly breaking down his icy walls until Tomoyasu did the unthinkable: he got married. And now here he was, acting fairly calm and collected when faced with the question of raising their own child, yet another one of life’s options he never considered in the past. Because in all honestly, he wasn’t opposed to the idea.
[Name] offers him an assuring smile, walking in further to the office from their place leaning against the door frame. Tomoyasu then caught a whiff of dinner from the hallway, knowing his spouse must have been mulling over this while cooking. “Right now? Yes. But I’m willing to talk this over more if you want,” they respond, reaching over to push the dark curtain of his bangs back so they could plant a sweet kiss to his forehead.
Tomoyasu hums softly in content at the action, lazily moving his mouse to save the work he had been typing up. “How about we chat more over dinner?” With his partner’s chipper ‘okay!’ as a response, the two of them leave the office.
Dinner was spent discussing the various pros and cons of having a kid, what they would need, how responsibility would be split between them – Tomoyasu even suggested he get a crib for his office at work if he ever needed to babysit, since he likes to keep his office there quiet and off-limits to others. They’d have no shortage of babysitters, either, since Chitose and Koku would be more than delighted to play the part of a rich aunt and uncle. Plus, Rikiya was a huge fan of kids, so if Tomoyasu needed to bring them to an MLA meeting, the commander wouldn’t mind one bit.
Once the two of them were at the point that they were eagerly tossing out name ideas, that’s when Tomoyasu knew what their decision was: they were going to have a baby.
The wait was long and nerve-wracking, the couple spending most of their time setting up a nursery in what used to be the guest room, since they’d be kidding themselves if they said they ever had guests stay the night. When the rest of the MLA heard of the news, Chitose basically demanded they have a baby shower. Tomoyasu was against the idea, but eventually agreed to it as long as it wasn’t over the top and was only between officers of the MLA and the PLF, if they wished to come.
[Name] didn’t mind the party at all, since they were given plenty of gifts that consisted of necessities for the baby: plenty of clothes and supplies from Chitose, coupons for free ‘first time parenting’ classes from Koku, an assortment of books from Rikiya, and even toys from Toga, Twice, and Mr. Compress. By the end, the two of them were fully prepared for their baby.
After all the waiting, the nerves, and the stress of making sure everything was perfect, the little one was finally home… And Tomoyasu has never felt so out of his element. Taking a seat on the couch, he reaches shaky arms upward when [Name] offered to let him hold their little girl, Tomoko.
“Just take a breath and relax, Tomo,” [Name] instructs him, quiet as to not upset the infant in their arms. “You’re not going to hurt her or anything.”
Tomoyasu simply swallows harshly. “Wh- What if she doesn’t like me? What if I make her cry?”
[Name] snorts in amusement at that, taking a seat next to him on their couch to carefully transfer Tomoko into his embrace. “Babies cry, Tomo. That’s, like, their main trait,” they reply. “Don’t worry, I’m right here to help.”
Now with the baby in his arms, Tomoyasu instantly felt all his nerves and worries fade away upon seeing the sleeping face of their daughter. Pudgy cheeks, thin whisps of hair atop her head, and equally tiny hands curled against her chest in her swaddled position. Here he was, a father – a part of life he used to laugh at when he was younger. But now…
Now, he’ll do anything to see their little girl grow up happy.
