Welp, I finally caught a case of the ague; the germs always come to get me in February. 😷
But since I'm sick and need some character comfort, I decided to write some purely indulgent headcanons. I literally NEVER post my writings, like, ANYWHERE.
However, there is a sadly small amount of content for You're My Loveprize In Viewfinder, and I've been craving the characters like mad because I've been re-reading it. Plus I thought it could make a sick fan's day someday, so spreading the love. 💓
Slight N$FW Content Warning
Nothing major, only hinting, but better to be safe than sorry.
Also a slight c0c@!n3 reference.
So I hope you guys like it:
You're My Loveprize In Viewfinder Characters when you're sick...
Feilong:
(I love him so much, he's my absolute favorite, my pretty boy.)
Upon his orders, Tao brings you a cup of medicinal tea probably every hour. It's awful, but Feilong insists it will help, and it very much does.
Feilong rests by your side in his bed, dabbing the sweat from your fever with a cool, cold cloth.
He sings softly to you in Cantonese to soothe you when you're squirming and fussing, because God, you're body is so uncomfortable to be in right now.
He wraps you in his robes so you're warm and cozy, and also to help you sweat out the fever.
Feilong is constantly by your side. There isn't ever a moment he isn't at least within your sight while you're ill. Even if he takes a business call, he only goes as far as the window that looks out over Hong Kong.
You try to tell him that if he constantly lingers by your side he'll get sick, too.
He informs you he does not care by kissing you full on the lips, telling you afterwards as he looks in your eyes that he isn't going anywhere.
Of course, he does get sick.
But you're better by this time, so you and Tao lovingly nurse him back to health, too. 🩵
Asami:
He insists that s3× is the best way to help you sweat out your fever.
You decline the first few times, but being as persistent as he is, you eventually consent.
It does actually help.
Avoids smoking around you, so he goes onto the balcony if he really needs a drag; but he leaves the door open so he can hear you in case you need anything.
Like Feilong though, he doesn't leave your side if he can help it, and has his men run out for things from the pharmacy, the grocery store, etc.
And if he has to leave, he asks you if you want anything while he's gone, kissing your forehead before he goes.
He leaves his men with you, should you need anything.
But mostly you just sleep if he's gone.
Comes back home with flowers and any kind of indulgent food you like; even if you requested the most simple food, he'll bring you the most expensive and extravagant version of it he can find.
Makes sure you shower every day to help you in feeling better.
Surprisingly, he never gets sick. Not even once.
Lucky bastard.
Bonus:
Takaba:
He becomes a retriever in every sense of the word.
The second you indicate any kind of sickness setting on, the very first thing he does is run to the nearest store to get you literally every cold, flu, and cough medicine on the shelves and your favorite kind of soup, and any other foods you like.
Stays by you to get you comfy in your bed, lovingly pats your forehead when you sweat, makes sure you have the TV on, makes sure you have tissues and a small army of pills on your nightstand.
He gets sick quite literally the second after you do, but he pushes through it to nurse you back to health.
Will tend to you to the point of exhaustion.
Mikhail:
(Yeah, I think he's kinda hot too.)
Insists that having a snort of c0c@!n3 will help.
It doesn't.
So much for that.
Next, he has you try out the sauna.
This actually does help.
Good job, Mikhail.
You wake up sweating with him literally wrapped all the way around you.
He sleeps like a rock so you just lay there and sweat out toxins.
Unlike Fei and Asami, he usually goes on with business as usual, so you really only see him at night. During the daytime Yuri sits with you.
Yuri doesn't really know what to do so he just sits and plays cards with you.
You lose, because there's more congestion in your head than brain right now.
Yuri gets angry because he thinks you're not trying.
Luckily Mikhail comes back and tells Yuri you're supposed to be nice to sick people as he kisses you hello.
He makes Yuri apologise.
He does.
Mikhail doesn't understand that you're not supposed to make out with someone who is sick.
So, naturally, it all ends with you and Yuri tending to Mikhail once you're well.
You love him but he's a literal child when he's sick, so you have to keep Yuri from blowing his stack while also taking care of Mikhail's needs.
You throw in the towel when Yuri gets sick, too.
Mikhail's ended up being more satire, but he seems so immature, I really couldn't help myself. I hope you enjoyed, and knowing me, I'll think of something or get further in the series and end up making edits to this post. Have a nice day, and feel better! 💙
