Aclarations, most of my fics are gender-neutral until said otherwise. I try to be as plain with the reader physical appearance as possible, so it can include everybody. If you have a correction to make to a fic because the reader is either too white, too fem or anything in that regard, please do because my goal it to make everyone feel included. Also, the reader will always have some sort of personality or backstory, cause otherwise it's boring.

Imagine this gemerl with sonic sibling reader who had to be roboticize to save there life (yes I'm taking inspiration from the archie comics) and the reader and gemerl meet and fall in love with each other and sonic would be an protective brother
I can't tell who'd be more cooked. Gemerl or Sonic. Sonic would probably pick up on it faster than reader because well. protective brother and he's prolly passive aggressive to gemerl about it like "hey gemerl got anything that's grinding your gears recently" and gemerl will either get it or not get it. either way, gemerl will have to prove himself to be VERY earnest about being with reader because they've gone through enough shit already. if reader's serious about gemerl then sonic lets it slide as long as gemerl promises to take care of reader or else he will Not have it.
Can you please do a gemerl x reader romantic headcanon
Puppy love
Gemerl the gizoid x reader
Warnings: none
Genre: fluff
A/n: thank you so much for the request, I LOVE SONIC ADVANCE 3, so I went to work in your request almost immediately when I saw it. I had so much fun writing for him, if you want more you can always ask. Sorry it isn't a head canon just like how you asked, but I get too carried away with one idea.
You leaned inside the kitchen window frame, your body still on the outside feeling the nice spring breeze. The home smelled like home-cooked pastries, apples and cinnamon were the strongest scent, it made it feel warm and familiar. You've been here a lot of times, Vanilla's cooking always made you come back, but also a certain robot you held dearest in your heart.
"Welcome back, honey, the door is open if you want to come in." Vanilla salutes you while taking the nice stemming pie from the oven. She has always been so lovely with you, treating you as a real mother; her kindness was infectious and translated to her daughter as well. You smiled at her, though shook your head, despite wanting to take a piece of that delicious food.
"Nah, I came here looking for another thing." She smirked cheekily at you, already knowing the answer, it was one of her favorite reasons to have you near; it surprised her how attached she became to her adopted son-machine, and seeing how he had someone chasing him made her root for the two of you. She shouted for Cream and Gemerl to come over and that the pie was ready, it didn't take long to see the tiny rabbit sprinting to the kitchen with a big smile on her face, the black and yellow robot following not too far behind her.
Cream thanked her mom for the pastry and sat herself down to eat a piece, though before doing that, she had washed her hands and helped prepare the table like the well-mannered girl she was. The moment she noticed you, her eyes brightened even more, calling your name with the usual formal title she used with everyone. You waved at her nonchalantly; you used to babysit her a lot more before the robot came into the picture, let's just say you were very permissive and didn't mind going on adventures with her.
"You came for Mr. Gemerl?" She asked right away, the childish wonder made you chuckle, she was a lovely girl. Having a kid as your wingman also made things way more direct, a way to make the ex-Eggman's lackey get the message easier. He had his head turned away from you, something he'd do if he was embarrassed, which also coincided with whenever you were around.
"Mhmm, I need some help with a project I'm working on." You nodded, you were indeed planning something, despite not being something you'd need help with, more like show him. He wouldn't leave Cream's side if it wasn't for an important reason, and having her around while trying to win him over was not the best idea. Cream quickly turned to him and pushed him out, mumbling how rude he'd be if he said no.
When Gemerl got kicked out he just stayed there, stiff as a stone even for a robot; it made you chuckle under your breath, he looked like a confused puppy. You started walking to the place, signaling him to follow you with your head as you saw he was not moving, he quickly obeyed you and caught up your pace. It was a silent walk, the two of you sneaking a look at the other, sometimes catching the other and making a playful expression or noise.
He wanted a peaceful life, to repent for his past sins, and to erase the being he once was. He was glad you never saw him in the worst version of himself; or that you never wished for him to be that innocent robot he was replacing, he was just him in your eyes, the only one that ever existed. His eyes always darted to you when you visited; Vanilla and Cream had a close bond with you, almost familiar, you had told him you practically saw how Cream was born.
You eventually reached your project place, a birdhouse filled with hurt flickies inside, chirping as they saw you come, apparently, you had also captured their hearts as well. You let Gemerl in before you, he was still nervous, but this time for was careful to not worsen their state rather than being pushed out of his comfort zone. The flickies didn't take long to fly over, the ones that could, and the rest watched attentively from where they were; a particular one lingered on top of the robot's head, which caused you to laugh.
"So… What do you think?" You both had sat down on some cushions you kept around, the place was peaceful, with not too much noise, and humid enough for the plants to thrive. Gemerl had a particular flicky attached to him, sitting in his lap as he petted it. Having something that was often a victim of his creator's trust made him feel fulfilled, that he had changed for the better and was another step away from the past.
"Helping victims of Eggman and injured ones of other causes, I approve." You smiled warmly at that response, you knew he'd liked it, he was so delicate with these creatures, with everyone he cared for in reality. The protective aura he carried himself with was one of his biggest appealing points. You felt safe with him, even if you knew you could take care of yourself while in danger, but who doesn't want a knight in shiny armor?
"I'm glad." You stood up and began putting down the ones unable to fly, hanging them to him for him to make them comfortable. After a while, you sat down and started checking on them, looking at the state of the wings and stretching them carefully. You also taught him how to do it and what to check for. It continued for the next hour or so, exchanging the state of the flicky or commenting on something.
"Omega asked me to go to the movies the other day." You listened to him meticulously, caring for every word coming out from him, as you focused on the animal simultaneously. You were halfway there, half done and the other half walking and playing around you. "It was a bad experience, a mediocre action movie. The only good thing we're the explosions."
You chuckled at the anecdote, you were about to respond when one of the flickies stung you with its beck, gaining a high shriek from you. Gemerl grabbed the flicky from its neck, tight enough to not hurt it but to keep it in place, and glared at it, it tried to fly away, even so, it was unable to. All of the other animals surrounded him, squeaking in protest, asking him to leave it alone. Wanting to stop this mini-rally, you asked him to hand you the bird and then put it on the ground.
"Are you hungry?" All of the flickies started chirping in affirmation, leading you to stand up and open the big container of food; you didn't have the time to separate the food into plates as everyone gathered and ate right away. "No need to scream, guys." You muttered.
The two of you watch the sight in front of you, all the little birdies wrestling and pushing each other for food; if you tried touching it they'd screech at you. You took advantage of the fact they were occupied with the food and tidied up the place. With Gemerl's help and his swiftness in working, you two were able to clean most of it before they came back for more attention. During these moments, you were glad to have him by your side, he was such a helpful hand even though your idea was to impress him with this.
The time passed, and without realizing it, you two had spent the entire afternoon handling these little creatures, you could tell he got attached to them, he was like a protective parent making sure they didn't get hurt and separating when fights occurred. Your eyes were brimming with admiration, the kind that questioned you if you wanted to be him or be with him; his caring attitude, his easiness dealing with problems, the peaceful demeanor he carried himself with, you truly wanted him by your side the rest of your days, you even started taking classes from Tails in basic mechanics.
The sun started to set, it was time to go bring him back home. The way back took longer than expected; getting out of the birdhouse was harder than it seemed, with everyone yelling or trying to escape; thankfully, Gemerl was there to keep them in line. After the extra work, you walked under the sunset, the last rays giving you warmth and guiding the path to his place; this time there was more conversation, talking about what happened and giving you tips to better take care of them; it was nice hearing him guide the conversation with confidence, facts were easier to deal with than emotions.
The last part of the track was signified by the clear path that led to Vanilla's home, built with a mixture of a variety of rocks and flowers; it gave a fairytale environment, Vanilla took care of the surroundings to make it look to Cream's liking. The two of you became quieter and quieter the nearer you got to the door. As you stopped in front of it, you turned to look at him, expectantly at what he was going to say, deep down you didn't want to say goodbye yet, nevertheless, he had a responsibility to this family. As the silence became longer, you decided to open your mouth.
"I hope you had a good day." You began fidgeting, not knowing how to make him stay for a little longer, he clearly didn't get the memo cause he was quick to say goodbye.
"I did, I appreciate the new experience." You were about to talk, but he beat you to it. "I must go back to my duty, goodbye for now." He turned around and grabbed the door handle, yet as he was about to open it, you grasped his arm, stopping him from leaving you alone.
He was astounded at this, giving you an inquiring look as he tilted his head, aware that his face couldn't express much emotion. His surprise doubled when you pulled him in and kissed his cold metallic cheek; it was a soft tender kiss, not lasting long in reality, except for him was an eternity.
"See you later." You gave him a nervous grin, blush all over your face, this wasn't a move you were expecting to make, but even so, you were glad that your body reacted fast as you saw the machine frozen in place. You took this as an opportunity to run away, not wanting to know what the outcome was going to be. From far away you heard Cream opening the door and greeting him back; you wouldn't have known that he kept staring at you as you disappeared into the town. It took him some time to respond to the little kid and follow her inside to respond to all the questions she had about their little outing; despite that, his thoughts never went far from you.
Imagine if the reader gets hurt in front of gemerl, the person that hurt the reader will experience what happened to zeena
OH GEMERL WOULD HAVE NO HESITATION. reader has to convince him to NOT break that person's bones unless they're a badnik. and once the threat is taken care of he's immediately zipping them back to cream and vanilla's house to take care of them and insisting they rest for the day even if it might be a minor injury.
I'm curious, what about gemerl? Like, i see him being a really sweet and kind lover and also a protective one
WAIT GEMERL WOULD BE SO CUTE??????? WHY HAS NO ONE GOTTEN ON THIS
the best way i can imagine gemerl (keep in mind im referring to the one in the IDW comics) is very doting and smothering, but he is absolutely very protective, too. he'd make breakfast in bed every morning and reader never has to hear about housework ever again with gemerl around. he prolly calls them a lot of cheesy nicknames that im too embarrassed to come up with while letting himself be illogical for once with how much he wants to nuzzle and dote on reader when he has time.
but also. do not try reader, now. because gemerl has hands and 0 hesitation. cream squeals about it and vanilla finds it cute.
