dating empel vollmer
pairing: empel vollmer x gn!reader
tags: silly & wholesome fluff, established romantic relationship, supportive!ryza & co., dense!empel
empel didn't have love on his mind when he came to kurken island! he didn't expect to fall in love, nor did he expect anyone to fall for him. he was aware most people in town weren't a fan of him…
he's a bit of an oblivious idiot, so even though empel has a little crush on you, he doesn't realize right away that you have a thing for him as well (and lila has to end up telling him–)
once the two of you are in a relationship, it's still a little bit awkward at first, but in a cute and charming way!
empel hasn't dated anyone in so long, so he sorta forgot most of the dating etiquette. luckily for him, you find his awkward attempts to impress you or compliment you charming!
while empel always looks so well put together when with ryza & co, taking on a wise mentor role, he's a cute mess with you – and ryza and her friends find that quite amusing!
empel tries to make time for you as much as he can outside of his work, but after a few dates, you start to prepare for him having to leave early or take you some other place, because of work or because ryza & co. got into a situation and need his help–
