Rias Gremory & Runeas Gremory x Reader HCs
This is for sure something everyone wanted. Everyone knows who the GOAT Runeas is. (I don't even think the Dx volumes got an official translation.)
CW: Yapping. A lot of yapping. Possible mention of anime boobs.
Rias Gremory
》 If you ask the general public about Rias Gremory, there would be a few words that often come up. Beautiful, kind, intelligent, and powerful would be some of them. Personally, cute would kind to mind.
》 The Rias you know is much different than the one in public. She's still all the things mentioned before, but she's a lot more human than one would expect. She may be the Gremory heiress but she's still just a young woman at the end of the day.
》 Sometimes after a long day of schoolwork and politicking she just wants to cuddle on the couch and watch some anime. Yes, Rias is a closet weeb. She'll look at you like you just kicked her spit on her mother if you call her one though. Get ready for a lecture on why she is in fact not a weeb, but simply just a fan of the Japanese culture.
》 There definitely isn't many downsides to being with her. While her professional life can get busy, it's fairly rare. Her family doesn't tend to bother her with work too much, as she has plenty of time to grow into her role. Even though she still has her peerage to tend to, she still makes more than enough time for you. She's pretty good at managing her time, so you'll have a good amount of it with her every day.
》 Rias is romantic. She's a romantic with a lot of money. Your first date was... a thing. She at least tried... even if inspired by too many trashy movies. While it wasn't terrible, it was definitely a bit much for a first date. She pulled up in her red convertible, dressed in clothes that probably costed more than your entire wardrobe, and took you to an expensive restaurant. It was awkward as hell. On the bright side, she did learn a lesson after that. Things from there did become much more simple and you weren't complaining.
》 She is extremely confident. Even if she's way out of your league, (let's be honest, she is) she isn't afraid to be seen by your side or anything. She'll happily walk through school or Kuoh clinging to your arm with a content smile on her face. She may be extremely popular there, she's still far more free to just be Rias instead of Rias Gremory. She may be a bit less clingy back home, but she's still not ashamed to be with you.
》 Maybe a bit too confident. She is a Devil, and is not a fan of clothes when she doesn't particularly need them. You will almost definitely wake up with Rias boobs in your face more often than not. That's a good thing.
》 Even if she is an extremely powerful Devil, she does have her moments of normalcy. It was a normal unassuming date. You two were at some zoo, just walking around, hanging out, and then it happened. She saw a camel. She literally hid behind you, trying not to be seen by the quite dumb looking creature, as if it would murder her on sight. It was a side of her you never saw before, but it was cute. You couldn't help but tease her about it, which she got defensive and pouty over. It was memorable to say the least.
》 Her peerage generally gets along with you, even if you aren't a devil yourself. She's their King and none of them are bad people. Some may be a bit cautious at first, but as long as she's happy. It's also kind of mandatory you're on good terms with them. They are practically her family, after all. Hard to be worse than Riser, so it should be fine.
》 She does have big dreams though, so you'll be along for the ride, helping out when you can. She wants to be the Rating Game champion, and it sure as hell won't be easy to achieve. If you're not a devil, it's not necessary but help out with small things while her and her peerage are training, and give honest feedback. She'd appreciate a different perspective and completely open to it, even if it is from an outsider. If you are a Devil though, you're definitely taking more of an active role. Training with her and her peerage, participating if you join her peerage, and pushing each other to your limits. Either way, you're rewarded with cuddles, Rias time, and boobs.
》 Rias does want to be seen for more than her name. She'll let down her walls around you with time and just be herself, even if she is a bit of a dork at the end of the day. She's a young woman with a lot of responsibility in the future, so she wants to act her age and have fun while she still can. Build a good relationship with her and she won't want to let go.
Runeas Gremory
》 Runeas is an interesting case. She's one of the oldest devils alive, well over 10,000 years old. While she isn't dumb, she definitely does not have most of the wisdom others around her age have. While she did wake up from her naps in various points in history, she's still quite old fashioned, if a bit childish. Her knowledge of the modern would could definitely use some work too...
》 She's probably infinitely harder to come across than any other Devil. She only wakes up every couple centuries and she often lays low to stay out of the current political climate of the Underworld. Doesn't help that she's supposed to be long dead. She isn't a total shut in though, as she does go out, usually just disguising herself or lying about her identity.
》 When you first met her, it was in Kuoh. She introduced herself as Neas Gremory. She looked to be around 20 years old, but she was extremely beautiful. She was a yapper. Didn't seem particularly bright either. She asked (politely demanded) you show her around town while she waited on her sister. Usually you wouldn't say yes, but... she was cute. Whatever you had going on could wait, they'd understand.
》 You didn't think it would take as long as it did, but with how often she stopped to get excited over every little thing, you thought you were being pranked at one point. She did seem genuine though, you couldn't really bring yourself to just end it. After a long day, you arrived in front of the academy. With a squeak and a pat on your head, she happily frolicked through the gates. Still not even sure what happened that day, but it was not the last time you saw her.
》 It wasn't until a few days later you got a random knock on your door, Neas standing outside with a bright smile on her face. Not too far away, behind a wall stood someone who looked similar to her, wearing an extremely dark and not suspicious pair of glasses.
"Hey, you're the boy that showed me around, right?!"
You could only give a dumb nod, slightly confused at how she even found your house. "I am. How did you-?"
"Great!" She reaches forward and grabs your hands, cupping them in her own. "You're mine now. Let me show you your new house!" Even as she said such a ridiculous statement, she maintained the innocent glint in her eyes. She turned around to shout at the figure in the distance. "Rias-chan! Did I do it right?"
The now named Rias could only facepalm.
》 Surprise! She was a Devil. Now you were too. It sounded like some weird anime plot, to be honest. You still weren't really sure of the specifics, but she just got her evil pieces and apparently you were the first person that came to mind. One thing led to another and now she's your master. It sounded odd at first, but the benefits were great! Good pay, healthcare, and the magical powers were also cool.
》 It was only then you actually started getting close to her. You were around more often than not, and she only got cuter by the day. It was in a weird way you couldn't really describe. She was always happy, even about mundane things. Things that you kind of were just used to like smartphones had her engaged and entertained for hours. She was passionate about questionable things, but you couldn't say anything about it. Not that you wanted to. Watching her smile as she yapped about camels was precious.
》 It was hard to pinpoint when she actually started feeling similarly about you though. She always acted relatively the same, though overtime you started noticing the blushing or looking away when you looked at her. She would get silent when usually she would be talking your ear off. You tried to ask about it but she just laughed it off and played stupid.
》 Eventually she did confess though. It was some completely random night, she sat you down and was actually serious, which was fairly rare for her. She told you about who she really was. You had a relative idea from seeing her family and how she was treated. Did not expect an ancient Devil though. It was a pretty long talk, but she did confess her feelings eventually. Apparently she was encouraged by her descendant and went for it.
》 After that, she only got even sweeter though. She was still in the old mindset of having to court people. Even though you accepted her feelings, she still tried to be romantic. Nothing more romantic than a ride on a talking camel, according to her. It was definitely a Runeas thing to do though. She would surprise with random cute handmade gifts she managed to find online. They weren't the best but the effort was clear, what was important was they came from her and she looked extremely proud of them.
》 It worked. It was small things like that made you fall even harder. Honestly, you wouldn't even have known she was rich if it wasn't for the castle she lived in. Dates were never too extravagant, just personal time with her. She was playful and mischievous at times, dragging you along as she pranked her family and staff around their estate.
》 Her family treated you well. They were almost as eccentric as her. You don't think you could ever get the image of Zeoticus dancing around in a camel costume out of your head. You knew Runeas was important, but not enough to have the lord of some important Devil family doing that. She got a kick out of it, he was her descendant after all. Even if he is like... thousands of years older than you. What the hell would that even make you to her? Thoughts for later. If anything they encouraged it. Rias seemed to ship the two of you, and you're convinced Milicas thought you were some old man. That or he was just very respectful. Either way, you didn't feel like too much of an outcast. Technically you were their great... great... great... questionable amount of greats grandmother's lover.
》 Runeas herself didn't mind though. Guess after a certain point stuff like that doesn't really matter much. She still treated you like an equal, even if you were worlds apart. The minute you began a Devil, you were in for the long run with her whether you liked it or not. Even as her sole peerage member, she never really bothered to find anyone else. Not like she was participating in Rating Games or anything. Now she had someone outside of her family to keep her company though! It was exciting for her, and someone with a completely different look on life too. It was refreshing.
》 You'd hesitate to call her impulsive. She doesn't like to waste too much time on things. If she wants something, she'll take it. It's just her instinct, afte all. She was one of the first Devils ever created, you can't blame her for being greedy to claim what's hers. To you it may seem fast, but she's been thinking about it for a while. It didn't even take a year for it to happen. It seemed like a normal date at first, Runeas dragging you around the streets of Kuoh, chowing down on whatever sweets she could get her hands on and talking your ear off, a big smile on her face the entire time. When the sun started to set, she got quiet, leading you to a familiar fountain where the two of you first met.
You were a bit confused when Runeas, got silent. She stood perfectly still, her long crimson hair just gently blowing in the wind behind her. She just stared into the water, you couldn't see her face and had no idea what was going on.
Just as you were about to speak, she turned around. She had a relaxed but confident look on her face as she stared you in the eye. She took a deep breath before starting. "Y/N... there's something I want to ask you."
Cupped in her hands behind her back was a small red box. Her usual playful demeanor nowhere to be seen as she dropped to one knee, a soft smile on her face.
》 Now just how to explain why Rias' great great great great, still questionable amount of greats, aunt (?) is almost two decades younger than her. Would that even matter to devils? Immortality... even if you now have it, still a pain in the ass to comprehend.
