randomly makes another HTF fic for no reason other than vibes

You help her with her anxiety (and have helped her get over a lot of her fears)
She likes going to carnivals, festivals, and sports events as dates (she always gets a corndog at carnivals and festivals)
You make sure there are no peanuts in her food or anything you buy
Flaky is very emotionally intelligent and incredibly empathetic, making her a good person to rant to (she always knows when something's wrong with you as well)
She is very affectionate and cuddly, and makes sure to be careful with her quills
She LOVES nose boops
You two often sit in trees together and watch the sunrise and/or sunset
If you play Animal Crossing or Stardew Valley, Flaky would love to play the game with you!
You often come home to a freshly baked berry pie (as Flaky works from home on her own schedule due to having a very severe phobia and anxiety disorder)
She likes anything you make her
Flaky is very awkward and adorable, and that's what drew reader towards her

I typically write HTF headcanons as if there were no dying in Happy Tree Town, btw. Also does anybody else not get the Flippy x Flaky ship?
Also like it was really hard to find non-sexualized fanart of Flaky, and non-ship art, like cmon guys (it was the same thing for Flippy and Splendid, and I fear googling any fanart for any HTF fics to come /j) (especially since Giggles is a ho)
Hey @elizabeth-yandere thank for the ask! I know it took me awhile to get to it but I hope you enjoy it all the same~ Comments and feedback are always appreciated!!
I tried to keep this as a gender neutral reader! So I used they/them pronouns :)

- Flaky is shy... everyone knows this
- But you were drawn to her from the start
- She had her head down, eyes avoiding absolutely everyone in the crowded grocery store aisle
- Her red white-flaked hair obscuring her face as she tried not to cry
- She had tried for the last five minutes to reach up onto the top shelf for the last ingredient she needed for dinner... only to be too short to reach, her fingers just barely brushing the bottom of the can
- It was stupid... she thought, to cry over something so little
- But she couldn't help it, she was overwhelmed and it was so crowded and it felt like the walls were closing in and her heart was beating out of her chest and people were starting to look in her direction and she could hear them whisper and whisper and talk and talk and it was too much... it was always too much
- And she couldn’t even get out a simple “Could you help me with this please?” without feeling like she was going to throw up all over the floor
- She was just about to drop her basket on the floor and bolt out of there when you showed up
- “Almost... aha! Got it!” With a little effort, you snatched up the very can she needed and held it over to her with a bright smile “Looked like you needed this!”
- “T-t-thank you!” Flaky shook as she accepted the can into her basket from your hand
- She expected you to turn and walk away after that, but you accompanied her to the front of the store, making polite conversation while she wiped her eyes with the sleeve of her sweater
- “So you should totally come over sometime!” You invited her over to your house, so happy to have made a new friend
- Flaky was stunned “You want to hang out with m-me?”
- You laughed, but it clearly wasn’t mean “Of course!”
- Flaky’s crimson eyes widened, she felt like she had just been handed the greatest gift in the entire world, and she nodded
- You two exchanged numbers and then you were on your way
- Unaware of the love-stricken red-head that cautiously followed you home
- Your friendship started out as normal as could be... as far as you knew
- But what you didn't know was that Flaky liked to follow you... watch your every move
- She felt if she let you out of her sight even once, you would disappear without a trace and she would be left alone and heartbroken and she couldn’t have that
- She’d show up at your house randomly
- “Oh hey Flaky! It’s... pretty late... did you want to sleep over?” you asked the small girl as she stood on your porch at just about midnight
- “U-um sure!” her smile was small and lopsided and adorable, so of course you let her in
- You didn’t mind that she slept over, she was your friend after all
- And then things started to go missing from your house
- Small things
- Things you didn't even know you’d been missing until suddenly there was a random space on your counter or your desk or a shelf that you swore there had once been a nail file... a pen... a small knickknack... a half-finished bag of gummy worms...
- It wasn't so much concerning to you... rather, it was unsettling
- But you brushed it off as simply misplacement or forgetting and moved on
- Flaky’s visits were more frequent when you had guests over
- A rapid pattern of knocking interrupted you from setting the tea set on the coffee table in front of your new friend Flippy
- “One second, I’ll be right back!” You promised him
- He was such a nice neighbor and you felt guilty of how long it took you to finally meet him (being so preoccupied with Flaky’s visits) so you invited him over for tea the one afternoon when Flaky texted you that she was staying home that day
- Or that’s what you thought... when you opened the door and familiar red eyes met yours
- “Flaky? I didn't expect to see you today, everything okay?”
- “I’m f-fine. Do you mind if I come in? I m-missed you!”
- You smiled weakly... how could you turn away your (basically only) friend now?
- You invited her in for tea as well, letting her know that you had a guest over
- You lead her to the living room where Flippy sat patiently with his hands in his lap and a nervous smile on his face
- “Hello Flaky, didn't know you’d be joining us too” he tried his best to keep his voice quiet and kind but despite his efforts, his rumbling voice sent Flaky shaking where she stood
- “F-Flippy? W-what are you doing h-here?” Flaky hugged herself as her eyes darted around the room nervously
- “Oh, I didn’t know you knew each other!” You smiled, happy to know that your new friend was familiar with the red-head girl
- You went to take a seat besides Flippy when Flaky grabbed your arm with a force much greater than should be possible from such a small girl
- You laughed and asked her what the matter was, her eyes never leaving the green-haired man
- “Can you let me go please? That’s starting to hurt,” you tried prying the girl’s hand from your arm only for you to be pulled down to her height so she could talk into your ear
- “Y-you don't know?!” Her eyes were wide and she was shaking so bad you thought she might faint
- “He’s crazy! H-he killed half the town once before. He can’t control his anger... he’ll lose control and he’ll kill you too!” she began with a whisper that very quickly made it’s way into a yell that was half a sob
- “What?” You eyed Flippy who had tears in his eyes as he slowly shook his head
- “Flaky... I don't know what you’re talking about, I would never-”
- “Y-YES YOU DO! I’VE SEEN IT! YOU’VE TRIED TO KILL ME BEFORE! I WON’T LET YOU HURT THEM TOO!!”
- You’ve never heard Flaky raise her voice and it honestly shocked you
- The red-head girl stood in front of you and pointed at Flippy accusingly “If you think I’m going to let you hurt my f-friend then you’re wrong!”
- “Flaky, I-” you tried to intervene but the girl already had a heavy candlestick in her hands
- “I am SICK and TIRED of you! Thinking you an come in here and steal them away from me?!”
- Flippy stood slowly, his hands up in a non-threatening manner, tears threatening to spill over “I’ll just leave now... I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable Flaky, please just-”
- Flaky pulled you further behind her “DON’T MOVE! DON’T YOU DARE COME NEAR THEM!”
- She swung the candlestick as she yelled, you could hear the whoosh it made as it cut through the air
- Flaky had moved you both to stand in the way of the exit
- “We have to get out of the way if you want him to leave-”
- “QUIET!” Without thinking, Flaky swung the candlestick at you, meeting your head with a sickening CRACK
- The room went silent as you raised a hand to the side of your head
- There was something warm... something cold... something warm and cold all at the same times running down your face
- You pulled your hand away and held it in front of your eyes... blood
- You let out a cry that you couldn't hear, everything was blurry and red and it HURT
- “Oh my god!” Flippy rushed to your side, pressing a throw blanket to the wound as you screamed
- But as soon as he made contact with you, Flaky struck again
- The candlestick snapped in half as it slammed into Flippy’s head and his right eye popped from it’s socket
- You screamed and Flaky embraced your form as you fell to the floor in a last minute attempt to grab Flippy as he fell backwards
- Your fingers brushed his front but Flaky was quick to grab you into her arms
- “Don’t cry! No!” she hushed you, one hand keeping you upright, the other pushing your face into her chest
- You couldn’t stop the sobs that tore through you
- “I-I didn't mean to hurt you, please don't be mad at me! P-please!” Flaky’s hold was suffocating
- You weakly fought against her, attempting to turn your head away from her, throwing your arms this way and that
- But you were losing too much blood and you were too weak
- “Flippy did this! He always does this! I knew he would hurt you! He always hurts everyone and everything!”
- “N.. no.. no-” you sobbed, chest heaving
- “I’ll make you b-better,” Flaky whispered, pressing kisses to your bloodied head “All you have to do is stay with me f-forever and ever. A-and we’ll get rid of him and run away and live h-happily ever after.”
- Flaky was laughing now “We’ll be happy and free and you’ll be mine... only mine.. forever!”
- The blood poured endlessly down your face, getting in your eyes and blinding you
- And suddenly you were tired... so tired
- You were too tired to wipe your eyes
- Too tired to scream or yell anymore
- Too tired to reach for the phone on the coffee table in front of you
- Too tired to fight against the small girl as she took you by the shoulders and dragged your limp body out the door
- “You’ll be m-mine... forever and ever... and ever... and ever.. and ever-”
-”A-are you sure Y/N? Y-you want to c-cuddle with m-me?”
-(Nervous child)
-”Of course I want to cuddle with you silly!”
-”O-okay then-”
-You and Flaky are laying in your sleeping bags on the living room floor
-(You guys decided to have a sleep over and Flaky felt bad that you were sleeping on the floor so she decided to join you.)
-You unzipped your sleeping bag and moved over to Flaky
-”Move over a bit please.”
-Flaky nervously moves over and you unzip to sleeping bag a bit
-You move yourself into the sleeping bag and zip it back up and turn towards Flaky
-”Cuddle! I’m cold!”
-You out your arms around Flaky’s waist and invite her to do the same
-Nervous child! Nervous child!
-”A-are you sure-?” “Yes Flaky, please cuddle with me.”
-You give her puppy dog eyes in the dark and she finally agrees
-She slowly....... SLOWLY put her arms around your waist
-You scoot closer to her and you two are pressing up against each other???
-Flaky is low key freaking out and is fighting to not hyperventilate
-But soon you’re asleep and she is still??? WIDE awake???
-This feels so nice and she’s afraid that she will fall asleep and loose her hold on you and she doesn’t want you to think she didn’t want to cuddle?????
-Someone please help the nervous child
-The sun has just barley come up
-Flaky is slowly falling asleep but keeps on jerking awake to make sure she is still holding you
-You wake up between on of these jerks and is like??? Why are you not asleep???
-You know she is nervous so the next time she jerks you just jerk your head up at the same time and end up kissing her cheek
-”Go to bed Flaky. You’re such a dork.” You giggle lovingly and go back to bed
-Flaky is in shock?????
-”O-okay.”
-She is relived that you agreed for her to finally go to bed
-She hugs you closer one last time before passing out from exhaustion
Extra:
-You wake up to find Flaky in a deep sleep
-You grin and just hug onto her tightly, never wanting to let her go
-Her grip is strong around your waist so you have to pry her arms off of you just so you can get up to close the curtains and go back to sleep in each others arms
