Kinkmas Masterlist
The world was still dark when you felt him.
Not the sunlight.
Not the sound of monks shuffling down the hall.
Not the loud chatter of the noisy champions talking.
No.
What pulled you from sleep was the slow drag of warm hands under the blanket, sliding up the curve of your waist like he was memorizing it in his dreams.
Raiden pressed himself closer, chest molded to your back, breath brushing the nape of your neck in soft, sleepy exhales. He wasn’t fully awake—you could tell by the way his nose nuzzled your shoulder, lazy and instinctive.
His hands were wandering on their own. One rested on your stomach, pulling you back into him with a quiet, needy hum. The other slipped low, fingers brushing the hem of your shirt before dipping underneath, exploring the heat of your skin like he needed it to survive the morning chill.
“…Mmnh… Sweetheart…” he murmured, voice rough and thick with sleep, lips ghosting over your shoulder. “S’cold… stay close…”
You didn’t even try to pretend you were still asleep. Not with how hard he was already pressing against you from behind, his hips shifting just enough to betray exactly what kind of dream he’d been having.
You let out a soft breath, body arching instinctively into his touch.
“Raiden…” you whispered, voice still hoarse from sleep.
That seemed to wake him up some.
He inhaled sharply, grip tightening on your waist. His whole body shivered—half from the cold, half from the realization that you were awake and responding to him. His lips pressed a slow, warm kiss to the side of your neck.
“…Sorry,” he whispered, though he didn’t stop touching you. “Didn’t mean to wake you… just—”
He exhaled shakily against your skin. “—you felt too warm… couldn’t help it…”
His hand slid lower, fingers brushing exactly where he wanted you most, his touch tender but undeniably hungry. The kind of touch someone gives when they want you before their mind even catches up.
Raiden buried his face in your neck, whispering against your skin, “Let me warm you… please…”
You shivered under the blankets, the early-morning cold biting everywhere except where Raiden was pressed against you. His warmth seeped into your back, into your legs, into the sleepy fog of your brain—enough that your thighs parted instinctively when his hand slipped lower, exploring you beneath the sheets like it was second nature.
“Okay…” you whispered, voice thick with sleep as you burrowed deeper into his chest for heat.
Raiden breathed out against your neck, slow and warm, his fingers nudging your underwear aside like he’d been waiting all night for this. He found your clit with a soft drag of his fingertips, gentle but knowing, and you let out a tiny, helpless moan.
“Raiden…”
“I’ve got you, sweetheart,” he whispered, his voice gravel-soft, still half asleep. “Just want to get you ready… stretch you a little… then I’ll give you everything you’re asking for.”
His fingers eased inside you, slow and smooth, working you open with unhurried thrusts meant to wake you gently from the inside out. The slick sound of it filled the quiet room, your hips moving lazily to meet him, still pliant and warm from sleep.
Your body responded instantly—soft, open, needy in that slow-morning way—and Raiden held you close, breathing you in as his fingers coaxed you toward consciousness and desire at the same time.
Raiden groaned softly behind you, the sound low and warm against your skin as your hips moved with his fingers.
He adjusted his hand slightly, slowing his pace just enough to keep you relaxed and pliant beneath him, coaxing your body open while he held you close.
Your breath hitched when his thumb brushed your clit again, a gentle slow circle that made your thighs tremble under the blankets.
“That’s it…” he murmured, his lips brushing your shoulder, “you’re doing so good for me…”
He curled his fingers deeper inside you, searching for the angle he knew would make your body melt.
You let out a soft, broken whimper, one hand reaching back blindly to grab at his hip, needing him closer. He guided your leg over his, opening you further without breaking the lazy, tender rhythm of his fingers.
“Love…” he whispered, voice thick with need, “you’re so warm… feel perfect like this.”
His forehead rested against the back of your neck as he breathed you in, chest rising and falling with the same slow rhythm as his hand.
You felt him pressing against you, hard and hot through his sweats, grinding instinctively into the small of your back with every pulse of pleasure you gave him.
“You’re killing me…” he whispered, almost laughing from how wrecked he already sounded. “you’re still half-asleep and you’re already… squeezing me like this…”
His fingers curled again, deliberate, gentle, impossibly tender.
“Let me take care of you first,” he murmured into your skin, voice trembling. “I want you soft for me… want you ready when I give you all of me.”
Your whole body shivered at that, walss tightening around his fingers.
“There you go… just like that…” he whispered, pressing a kiss behind your ear. “Let go for me. Wake up for me…”
You whimpered, barely awake, the smallest orgasm rippling through you, like a warm wave, guided out of you by Raiden’s careful touch.
“Please…” you breathed, the word catching on a tiny whine that made his whole body tense behind you.
Raiden exhaled shakily, pulling his fingers from you with a tenderness that made your stomach flip. He shifted your body with that same gentleness, easing your back onto his chest and guiding your leg over his hip. The blankets pooled around you both as he pushed his sweats down just enough for his length to spring free, flushed and eager.
Raiden dragged himself through the slick he’d pulled from you moments earlier, coating himself slowly, like savoring the feel of you on him already. Then, with a soft groan against your skin, he pressed forward, inch by inch sinking into your warmth.
Both of you shivered at the slow stretch, the sleepy closeness, the way your bodies molded together like this was the only way mornings were meant to be spent.
His arm wrapped around your torso, pulling you in tight, his face tucking back into the crook of your neck. His breath hit your skin in trembling waves as he began to move, each thrust gentle enough to melt you but heavy enough to remind you he wanted you fully, completely.
Just the soft sound of your breathing syncing with his, your bodies warming each other beneath the blankets, every movement deliberate and reverent.
Raiden held you like the moment might shatter if he wasn’t careful, thrusting like he was worshipping every second of it.
Raiden’s breath stuttered against your throat, hips pressing deeper with a trembling control that made your whole body arch for him.
“So soft for me…” he whispered, voice barely there, “You feel… gods, you feel soft.”
Your hand slid back blindly, fingers shaking as they found his jaw. You stroked along the line of it, and he leaned into your touch like it anchored him, like it steadied the way you kept clenching around him in slow, lazy pulses.
His hand trailed up beneath your shirt, palm warm as it grazed your ribs before cupping your breast. His thumb brushed your nipple before he rolled it lightly between his fingers.
Your entire body jolted.
A hitched breath, a broken whine, your walls tightening around him so suddenly that Raiden gasped softly into your neck.
“Raiden…” you whispered, voice unsteady, the kind of fragile plea that only came from deep, blooming arousal.
“Let go…” he breathed against your skin, his thrusts deepening, more insistent, more purposeful, urging your body toward that sweet, warm edge again. “Let go for me.”
You whimpered, hips tilting desperately into him, the pressure curling tight and bright inside you.
“With me…” you begged breathlessly, feeling that thin, quivering line inside you ready to snap, clenching around him with helpless precision.
“…Hff… okay…” Raiden murmured, the sound a low, strained promise. His arm tightened around your waist, pulling you impossibly close until there was no space left, only heat and breath and the steady, slow drive of his hips.
“You’re right there,” he whispered, voice trembling, “I’m right here with you…”
His hand slid down, warm and steady, finding your thigh and guiding it open just a little more. The shift was small, barely anything, but the angle it gave him had your breath catching hard in your throat.
Raiden felt the way your body reacted instantly.
The tremble.
The way your hips jerked in his hold.
The soft, broken sound you couldn’t hold back.
He'd found the spot always made you come undone in a single slow thrust.
Your body tightened around him, trembling violently through another release that washed over you before you could even warn him. Raiden’s breath stuttered against your shoulder, a soft kiss pressed into your skin like he needed you close to stay steady.
He drove into you a few more times, deep and careful, dragging your pleasure out until your legs were shaking. Then he eased back just enough for the head of his length to slip free, resting right at your entrance as he came with slow, quiet pulses—soft little groans trembling out of him as he spilled against your warmth.
“Hah… I love you…” he whispered, voice thick and breathless. He pushed back inside you, slow and gentle, burying the rest of his release deep as the last wave rolled through him.
You shivered at the warmth, your heartbeat slowly easing back down as your bodies softened in each other’s hold.
“I love you too…” you murmured, voice already fading into sleep as you nuzzled deeper into his chest, letting the steady rhythm of his breath pull you under.
Raiden held you close, blankets piled over both of you, his arms wrapped around your waist, body heat shared, heartbeat steady.
And with one last sigh against your skin, you both drifted back into the sweetest, laziest winter slumber imaginable.
First time writing for Raiden so I hope I did well!
Summary: After defeating Titan Shang Tsung, Earthrealms Champions continue their lives and at a friendly dinner, the reader is pestered by some of their friends, Raiden being her closest, realizing this and afterwards, offering some peace and fun between them…
Warnings: N/A! Just Fluff!
Word Count: .8k
It blew my mind that just days ago, we were facing Armageddon, defeated Titan Shang Tsung and now, my friends and I surrounding a table at Madame Bo’s, eating dinner and chatting like it was just a dream.
I wouldn’t want to have it any other the way, though. Us making it out alive and unharmed was nothing short of a miracle.
The challenges we face surely didn’t change them in the slightest, being pestered by Kung Lao and Johnny as I sat between them.
They both were arrogant and flirting with me while I stared at my friend Raiden, my eyes asking him to put me out of my misery.
He could only laugh at my reactions at first, but after so much, I couldn’t tolerate it anymore.
“Why would you want to be with farmer boy here, when you have a mega star right next to you,” Johnny loved to throw those words around, making Kung Lao argue back:
“I may be a farmer boy, but I have everything a lover could ever hope to have.”
“Johnny, Kung Lao,” Raiden began to speak up, but at the same time, I rose from my seat, scoffing at them:
“All I want is damn peace and quiet. Which I’ll find in the restroom.”
That finally silenced them, staring at me as I went to the restroom, needing some silence, washing my hands and when I felt ready, I left to find Raiden in the hall.
“Are you okay, Y/N? I know they were testing your patience.”
Raiden was a great friend who didn’t pester me like the others, putting on a smile for him, making him laugh:
“Roughest test I’ve gone through yet.”
“I don’t doubt that,” He laughed, being kind as he added, “You deserve better than that.”
“Thank heavens someone understands,” I sighed, patting his cheek, “Only if there were more people like you, Raiden.”
“I guess I could say that I’m special,” He blushed, eyes darting away nervously, “Is it okay if I ask you something?”
“Of course,” I nodded curiously, reconnecting our gaze as he proposed:
“Maybe when we have some free time at the Wu Shi academy, we can do something together?”
“I’d like that, Raiden,” I smiled brightly, “Just let me know when.”
“Soon,” He smiled back, escorting me back to the table where we paid the bill and parted ways.
Only two days after, Kung Lao, Raiden, and I began training the new initiates at the academy. I was excited as they seemed to be promising.
At the end training day, we were all looking forward to our free day tomorrow. Changing into something a little more comfortable as I heard a knock on my door.
Answering, I found Raiden, a blushed smile on his face as he asked
“I’m not disturbing you, am I?”
“Never,” I assured, excitedly asking, “So, are we having our little randevu?”
“If you’re still okay with that,” He began to smile more as I stepped out and shut the door:
“Lead the way.”
He lead me to a garden that was full of cherry blossom trees, the leaves allowing some sunlight to shine across a blanket in the grass with a picnic box on top, and it put such a nice smile on my face.
“I know it’s not much-“ He began as he kneeled on the blanket, but I quickly shut down his worries:
“Raiden, It’s perfect.”
Neither one of us could stop smiling as I joined him, chatting over a wonderful lunch, chatting about the new initiates and our future goals regarding the academy, future tournaments, anything meaningful to us.
I appreciated that he took the time to do this and as he was cleaning up our lunch, I saw some cherry blossom pedals next to me in the grass, taking them to gift him.
“The cherry blossoms here are gorgeous aren’t they?” He looked back, curious as he saw me folding some, working but responding:
“Absolutely gorgeous.”
“Are you making something?” He leaned over to see, holding out my hand to show him hearts that I made from the pedals, offering:
“For you.”
Taking them delicately, his cheeks got so red, admiring them but meaning wholeheartedly:
“I’ll cherish them forever, Y/N.”
That nearly made my heart melt, continuing to show my appreciation as I leaned to kiss his cheek:
“Thank you for this. I’m more than happy to keep having more picnics.”
“As many as your heart desires,” He stared deeply into my eyes and I instantly felt this zap between us, my heart taking control of me as I softly kissed his lips.
With both our eyes closed, he started kissing me back with strong passion, leaning closer to me and accidentally mistaking the basket for the ground, making us fall back.
His looked a bit embarrassed, but I was laughing, happier than ever and as he stared at me for a moment, cherry blossoms falling onto me, he started laughing too, a pedal gracefully gliding past his eyes, titling my head over to kiss:
здравствуйте, буквы алфавита, могу ли я получить буквы: V, C, D N для Raiden из Mortal Kombat.
Здесь можно найти C и N
D - Damage (повреждение) - Как они отреагируют на ваши раны или ушибы?
Он начинает винить себя. Даже если это мелкий ушиб или царапина, которые появились из-за какого-то неловкого движения или случайности, в голове Рейдена всё равно мелькнёт мысль, что он виноват в том, что не уследил за тобой. Рейден сможет вылечить и более серьёзные раны, которые приведут его в абсолютную ярость и заставят незамедлительно уничтожить причину их появления.
V - Vaunt (хвалиться) - Как часто они хвастаются чем-либо? Нравится ли им хвастаться перед тобой?
Рейден не из тех кто станет чем-то хвастаться. Он не считает хвастовство чем-то хорошим и старается избавить своих учеников от него, поскольку зачастую за ним ничего не стоит, кроме бессмысленных слов или необдуманных действий. Но Рейден с трудом признает, что благодаря его высокому росту, у него есть возможность покровительственно смотреть на тебя сверху вниз, когда ты внимательно слушаешь его речи с таким преданным видом. В такие моменты он ещё сильнее ощущает себя богом, как бы странно это не звучало.
Hello! I hope your having a wonderful day, and may I ask for hanzo, kuai, fujin, and raiden react to their s/o disappearing out of the blue only to come back home and tell them they just had a quick family emergency? Again please have a good day!

This took such a long time to make becuase I kept lossing focus and in the end I just wanted to get it finished but I hope you all enjoy.
Hasashi Hanzo
Hanzo had come home late, he had been helping Kuai laing with a mission and it had taken longer then they both anticipated. It had been a long mission and the one t hign he was truly looking forward to was curling up in bed beside his lover.
As he walks into the house it's dead silent, something that he hasn't experienced here in a long time. A knot forms in his brows as he looks around for his Ume.
Hanzo calls out their name as he walks thought the house. He finds himself in the kitchen, food is left on the table. Everything is cold and he sees their phone on a bench.
Hanzo moves thought the house even quicker looking for some sign of his partner only to come up empty handed as he searches.
He calls out their name multiple times looking despreatly for his lover. It's to late for them to be out and there isn't anywhere they could really go without having to call for Raiden...
Raiden!
As if hearing his name a crack of thunder and lightning echoes and illuminates the fire garden, Hanzo is our the door as quickly as he can make it. He is met with a sight of his lover and raiden walking towards the him.
"Thank you Raiden, don't know how I would have gotten to the hospital without your help, so thank you again." They thank him, their eyes flick to Hanzo who quickly makes his way to them.
They smile to Hanzo as he reach them his hands go to their face looking for any sign of injury. "Hi hun, I'm ok. Sorry for disappearing out of the blue. Family emergency" they say eyes closing gentle.
"Forgive us Grandmaster Hasashi, they needed to go to the hospital, I was the quickest method of transportation." Raiden apologise giving a small bow, he nods to them both before disappearing in another bolt of lightning.
"Are you alright?" He ask lightly, his lover nods before resting their head against his chest. "It's been a hell of a day, my Dad ended up in hospital and I got a call. Scared the hell out of me, I'm just glad he's ok and that I'm home now." They whisper.
"Let's go inside, you look tired" he replys earning a smile from his partner. "Cuddles on the couch?" They ask earning a small laugh for Hanzo. "Yes, cuddles on the couch then bed. We both need sleep"

Kuai Laing
Kuai tries not to pace around yet all the Lin Kuei members can tell he is on edge. No one had brought it up but they all know something is not quite right.
The grandmaster for two days now has been in a tissy, his lover missing and he has no information on where they are, if they are alright or anything. So to say everyone is on edge would be an understatement.
Kuai had been thought every inch of the compound looking for his lover after he found their phone left in their room. But other then that it was like they just disappeared into thin air. He was desperate for anwsers.
He had to get one of the younger members to help him navigate his partners phone, it was something he didn't really have a use for until now. The phone had five miss calls on it.
After being showed the basics he decided to call the number. It's quite for a moment and Kuai almost thinks it isn't going to work. A voice of the end of the line nearly makes him jump, It's not someone he knows but he can hear his lover in the background.
"Hello is this Kuai?" It's a older man's voice gentle as he answers the phone. " Yes..?" He anwsers almost shyly. He can hear commotion in the background.
"Dad let me have the phone, he's probably worried sick!" He can hear his lover say only to hear a laugh from the man.
"Ok, ok. I'll let you talk to your man, heaven forbid I try and meet the boy" and wirh that the phone is passed over. He can hear his lover this time.
"Hey Kuai,sorry I disappeared. I was hoping you found my phone earlier and called" they laugh lightly. He can feel relief settle in his bones finally.
"Where are you Wǒ de ài?" He ask. "At hospital with my mother and father. Ahh my mum got rushed hear two days ago and I got a panicked call from my dad. So I left in a hurry, I'm really sorry I didn't let you know" they say over the phone. Both ends go quite.
"Is your mother alright?" He ask back finally sitting down. "She will be, she just gave us a massive scare. I should be back home in a few days, I miss you" that makes him smile lightly.
"I miss you too, Wǒ de ài. Please stay safe. Don't scare me liek that again, please" he pleads. A smile rest on his face.
"How much pacing did you do?" They ask as a joke. "Far to much Sweetheart". They share a small laugh. "Sorry Kuai, I have to go again but if I can I'll call you back later" they reply let ting him know.
"That's fine Wǒ de ài, just please stay safe and come back to me" he says before they both say good bye and hang up.
The next day Kuai isn't pacing and seems to be in a lot better mood, the rest of his clan seem to be alot more at ease now that he isn't freezing everything, everywhere he goes.

Fujin
Being a god meant Fujin had duties all over, and it meant he didn't get to spend as much time with his lover ad he wished he could.
But they always made time for each other. Fujin finally getting out if the sky temple and having a day free, it be by your side. And today happened to be one of those days.
So it didn't supise him when he arrived at his lover home to find them not there. After all they also have thing they must do. So in turn he made himself comftable.
And enjoyed the silence, it wasn't often now that he could just indulge in such thing like taking a nap, So that what he did.
He hasn't expected to sleep until late. But when he woke up it was to a gentle kiss on the lips. "Hi Fujin, how long have you been here?"
His glowing eyes flick open gentle meeting his lovers gaze. " It was still morning, I must have had a longer sleep then I expected." He smiles to them.
"I'm sorry I wasn't here, I had to go to the hospital." They sigh lightly moving to lay against the God. Fujin wraps his arms around his lover, pulling them to rest against his chest as he rest his cheek against their head.
"Why did you have to go to hospital Himawari?" He ask lightly. Eyes closing lightly as he cuddles closer to his partner.
"Family emergency, my sibling ended up there and well, I was the one they wanted called. So... I had to go make sure they were ok so my parents don't kill them." His lover huff who a light laugh.
"Your family is lucky to have you Himawari. And I am also very lucky to have you." He hums lightly kissing their forehead.
"And I thought I was the lucky one to have a literal God as my boyfriend" they chuckle. Fujin continues to leave small kisses agaisnt their skin.
"I'm glad your alright, I'm sorry I haven't been around much, alot have been happening at the temple" Fujin says, his lover rolls over to rest their chest agaisnt his.
"Well I'm just happy to see you again, I missed you and right now I just want to stay here. I enjoy cuddling with you." They hum running their hands up his chest and then runs a hand thought his white locks.
"I love you" he says with a smile, his lover presses a soft kiss to his lips.
"I love you too Fujin"

Raiden
Raiden knows just about everything that happens in the sky temple. And then one day it was like he knew nothing that was happening there.
Is lover had been missing all morning, they had missed today's meditation and training with Raiden, something they never did. He had wandered the temple, he looked everywhere and still no sign of his lover.
Normally he wouldn't be to worried about his partner but it has now been five hours of him looking for them. He has asked Liu Kang, kung lao and many of the monks if they had seen his partner. The only other person he could not find was his brother.
Raiden had nearly given up, on the verge of going to the elder gods, hoping that they could shed some light on his situation. But then his eyes land on his brother as he walks towards him with a smile and his lover follows behind.
"Fujin?, where have you two been?" The worry in his voice shows, Fujin just smiles and disappears. His eyebrows knot as he looks to his lover.
"Sorry we disappeared Raiden. A family emergency happened, Fujin was the first I could find so I asked him to take me to the hospital." They reply wrapping their arms around Raiden.
The thunder God sighs as he pulls his lover closer. His head rested against their shoulder.
"Are you well?, why were you at a hospital" he ask look ikng his partner over for any injuries only to find nothing.
"My sibling did themselves in good. Had to be rushed in to the EMR so well, I had to go make sure they were alright, I'm just happy to be home now" they sigh. He can feel The tension in their body fade away.
"Can we go and lay down, to days been alot" they say again, Raiden doesn't reply just picks his lover up and begins to make his way back to there room.
This one is hurt/comfort yall. I've linked the song here so that you can listen wile you read. The fic skips over the verse in the middle but besides that stayes consistent with the song. You should definitely listen to it though! I think this fic beautifully encompasses the vibe here.
----
Raiden knew his future self was only a faint nightmare from where he stood. He would never turn into the vengeful, hateful phantom from the future. Now that he knew it could happen, he would do everything in his power to stop it. Everything to keep you safe from himself. The scars of lighting and the burns forever marked into your flesh would continue to live in his mind forever.
He couldn't let himself do that to you. He couldn't let himself see you as a distraction from earthrealm and not a reason to protect it. He couldn't believe his future self had tried to… to get rid of you like some threat.
Now he was home. In his own timeline, and he had to see you. He had to.
The universe came to my doorstep today.
Hair all askew, spent the whole night awake.
When Raiden showed up on your balcony with a rumble of thunder he looked… unlike himself. No hat, no armor, none of that duty in his broad shoulders remained as they sagged. He stood drenched looking at you with sad, sweet eyes. You were worried. So, so worried.
I let them inside to get out of the rain
The coffee that was left in your pot from earlier that night was rushed into the microwave, ready in a minute. You ushered the man to sit on your couch, running to find a towel to dry him with, and then back to the coffee pot you went to pour him a cup.
Gave them some warm coffee, asked if they were okay.
You sat next to him holding the cup out for him to take, but he held a hand up, shaking his head. You set the cup on the coffee table, and were surprised by his touch as he pulled you into his lap. His touch was informal, his boldness new and relaxed, unlike his normal stiffness and polite touches. You relaxed against his soaked chest, reaching up to brush the wet locks of white hair out of his face. He nestles into your hand.
They said don't go out today.
I've made a big mistake.
His words were quiet and sad. Your heart twisted and mourned for him with every sentence he uttered as he explained what had happened.
I broke what I cannot unbreak, and I know it's not fair.
There's nothing that I can do to repair,
What awaits you out there.
The future he explained to you was awful, and you couldn't help but continue to caress his cheek as he laid his broken heart out to you. Not for you to pick up the pieces, but for you to know as you stayed by his side. He was apologizing to you, eyes unfocused and numb, for something that hadn't happened. For something that won't happen again.
The universe and I curled up on my couch.
Read books and drank coffee and didn't go out.
You stayed there with Radien for hours. Holding each other as the storm raged on outside. You shared the cup of coffee you had made him, and stayed close. You stayed together. Huddled in a heap of small kisses and words of affection. No matter what the future had in store now that everything was derailed, you would stay by his side.
When I had to get up, they carried me around.
When the universe laughs, it's a beautiful sound.
You put on an old comedy as you lie there with him on the couch. You remember how much he enjoyed it when you watched it together the first time. Even now, with his head pressed over your heart as you stoked his hair, urging him to sleep, he chuckles at the scenes.
They said,
Don't go out today.
I've made a big mistake.
He spoke again in hushed whispers after the credits had long rolled and the movie had ended.
I took all there was I could take, but it's safe in my hands.
And I do have a plan.
Raiden didn't want anything to happen to you. Liu kang was kind enough to ensure that for the two of you.
Tomorrow try again.
Raiden would tear down everything about the future he saw if it meant he could keep you safe.
I asked them why they'd made my world fall apart.
Even just for the day, made everything so hard.
Even when he asked if you would be happier if the two of you separated for good, you did everything you could to reassure him you weren't going anywhere.
He laid in your arms, and let himself cry as he listened to the calm beating of your heart.
They said
"Sometimes I watch you, so brave and so smart,"
"-And I'm afraid you'll forget just how human you are."
You held him closer as the tears came from your own eyes, pressing kisses into his hair as he spoke to you.
"I'm afraid I'll get lost in your big human heart."
The storm continued on as you stayed there, together. Faint kisses slowing to a stop as you fell asleep on the couch. You were both damp and uncomfortable, but neither of you could care.
Your big, human heart.
Raiden snuggled closer to your chest, reassured even in his sleep at the sound of the heartbeat beneath your skin.
