v x !reader with wings. based off of the song "star"
by Elysian feilds
At first, you thought that V and everyone else might shun you for having wings...however it turned out to be quite opposite!
everyone thought your wings were very cool, and V found the very intriguing.
i like to belive that V is a very caring person, and if you needed help with pruning or maintaing your wings, he'd be the guy to go too.
and espeically with his love and knowledge for animals? its gonna be like a spa day for you.
he would also research A LOT of stuff about how to take proper care of you, between what foods to keep in his house so you can come over and eat dinner with him, but also how to help you clean and maintain you wings!
V is a total romantic so this is just a general hc, but i think he would send love letters describing how much he loves and cares for you. which might be one longgg love letter let me tell you.
he would probably think of you as his whole world, better yet you are his whole world.
i like to think V is some what of an artist and or writer in his free time, and your definitely his muse.
he calls you sweet pet names such as "my muse", "love", "darling", "angel", etc etc
this was so fun to write, thank you for the request!
Imagine, if you will, Darling who pops into Teyvat with lil fluffy wings. White as the fresh fallen snow and fuzzy soft! They can’t fly with em yet of course, but perhaps the longer they’re in Teyvat, the larger the wings get? The characters arguing over who gets to help preen Darlings wings, perhaps their faves get to keep a feather or two as a token of affection? And of course, awkward flying lessons XD
I honestly have no clue how long this has been in my inbox for but i decided one day to maybe answer some old asks/requests and this was one i thought would be fun to do and omfg was i right. This was so fun to write thank you for the ask and sorry it took me a year to answer <3
warnings: none! pure fluff
*~Nurture and Grow
Venti immediately puts himself up as the best candidate for helping you get used to your wings. I mean, he has a pair himself! Obviously he'd be the best to help you! Ei argues that Kujou Sara would also be a good candidate to help you, since she also has wings because she's a tengu warrior.
Since they're the only two that seem to have wings, and Sara can't leave Inazuma, you probably end up living in Inazuma with Venti traveling with you. There, the both of them take care of your wings.
Of course, if there's anybody you prefer they'll make accommodations for you! But to make things easier, your new home will be Inazuma. If you wish to bring anybody extra other than Venti, the Shogun will allow for it since it's you.
At first, your wings are small. Smaller than Sara's. There's no way you can fly with them. But everyone finds them so cute! They're so tiny and whenever you get excited they flutter with your heart. Yae Miko definitely has a hell of a time teasing you about them but it's all light-hearted! She just loves cooing as your wings flutter excitedly whenever you see something you like!
Or whenever you get nervous your wings tense and it's very obvious. One time, Yae Miko snuck up on you while you were walking around Inazuma City. You weren't expecting her one bit, but she had stopped by to check up on Yae publishing house. And why not pay a visit to her little angel while she was in town? (Get used to people calling you Angel because it's going to happen a lot) She grabbed your shoulder from behind, giggling as you jumped and your wings tensed and straightened out.
"Miko!" You pouted as your wings turned lax.
Still, your wings fluttered as she pat your head.
You, of course, reside in Tenshukaku. The best and safest place for you to live in all of Teyvat (that you're familiar with). Especially with the Shogun (or Ei) herself staying with you as much as she can. Which means that Ei gets to be with you quite a bit! She can always find time to be with you even crafted a meticulous schedule for you and her! (Of course, if you're bad with schedules like me, she'll keep this a secret from you so you don't stress yourself over it.)
Due to this, and their devotion to you, immediately they'll notice when your wings start to grow. It's a gradual change, but as the nations come to know you for who you are your wings expand with their devotion.
"So we must become more devout for their grace to become more powerful." The Shogun mused, nodding to herself, "I shall see to it then."
"What?" You muttered, a dazed and excited smile still plastered on your lips as you admired your growing wings in the mirror (they were still too small for you to see without a mirror).
"I shall double our devotion to you." The Shogun said, her eyes determined, "Therefor your wings will grow as will your power. Kujou."
Said general immediately straightened up, tearing herself away from your growing wings, "Yes Shogun?"
"See to it that more temples and shrines are built. Make sure people pray more as well." She ordered, "We must see to it that their wings grow to their full potential."
"Yes Shogun." She bowed and scurried off.
You called out, "Be back soon please! I need help with my wings, especially if they're going to grow bigger!"
Sara paused and the ghost of a smile played at her lips, "Yes, your excellency."
Due to the undying faith of Inazuma and the other nations, your wings grew quickly. Almost too quickly for Sara and Venti to keep up with but they managed.
Most mornings, you'd wake up with your wings sore and larger than you last remembered. The first time this happened you practically ran to the Shogun (Ei). Your wings were fluttering and large enough to actually catch on the wind. In fact, they were the size of wind gliders! You were giggling as you glided down the stairs, you were shaky and you fell a few times but that was fine! It was exhilarating being airborne!
When you had found the Shogun you immediately saw the shock as you ran into her, beaming.
Ei came out of her Plane almost immediately, excitedly stroking and fawning over your growing wings.
"I'm so glad our devotion is helping, your grace!" She beamed.
Later, when Sara and Venti saw they were ecstatic. Immediately they started comparing wing sizes with you. Venti's were still bigger than yours, but your wings were bigger than Sara's smaller wings! They were still smaller than her bigger pair though, but you were catching up!
They even considered holding a festival for your growing wings to which you said was unnecessary.
"I wanna feel the wind on them though!" You said, a hopeful smile adorning your face, your eyes dazed with hopeful glee.
"Of course!" Venti had nodded, ignoring the two women in the room, "What?" He exclaimed after they had given him dirty looks, "Feeling the wind on your wings is necessary for anything or anybody with them!"
You giggled at the scene but Ei allowed for you to go out. She decided not to accompany you because she was busy, plus she'd probably just be standing off to the side doing nothing if she was to accompany you three. You were in good hands - Sara's hands, not Venti's - so she let you go off without her with ease. Mostly ease, Venti was still traveling with you. But if anyone knew anything about wings it'd be him so Ei let it be.
A week later, your wings had another growth spurt (presumably because ships from Inazuma were now docking in other nations).
You woke up to your wings fucking sore but oh my god they were so big! Before they were the size of wind gliders, and they started to slowly grow to just a bit bigger. Now, after your newest growth spurt, they were even larger! If you held your arms out, they stretched past your fingers by over a meter!
Immediately, you do what you've been wanting to do since you first came here and got your wings. You hugged everyone with your wings! Starting with the Shogun and Ei, then Sara and Venti (your wings were now larger than Sara's!). After, Yae Miko, Ayaka, Ayato, Thoma. Then Yoimiya and those in the resistance and Itto.
Everyone you hugged felt eternally blessed and practically on cloud nine being wrapped up in your arms and wings.
But, it seemed as though your mission to hug everyone with your wings would be for naught.
"Ei! Ei!" You squealed, flying down the stairs (almost literally).
Immediately, the Shogun was at your side, "Yes your..." Her voice fell flat as even the puppet with no need for human emotion paused to stare.
"Look! Look! They're so big, they're bigger than me!" You spread your wings out, wincing a bit at the pain from how sore they were.
Gently, the shogun reached out to brush her fingers over the large feathers of your wings. A breath escaped her and a large, love-struck smile split her face.
"They're beautiful, your grace." Ei said lovingly, "If you ever need somewhere to practice flying, my plane is always open to you." She gently pat your head and brought you in for a hug.
Your wings, once so small on your back, now enveloped her whole. Just as Teyvat's love for you helped your wings grow, you'd love Teyvat and help it grow.
WARNINGS: Slight injury, May be OOC(Out of character), first Tighnari fic so pls bear with me TvT.
"Y/N ON YOUR LEFT!" Tighnari yelled as he throws another Vijnana Stormheart to the fungus that's approaching him. "Thank you, ON YOUR RIGHT!" You warned Tighnari about the fungus that's about to attack him from his right. You flap your wings harshly to the funguses that is flying on your direction, about to ram you down with their head. But they failed to hit you as they got blown away with the gust of wind you produced.
This all started because of a report of another withering zone, you and Tighnari thinks it's just another withering zone that you two often meet so both of you only prepare for a regular withering spree. Oh how you two are wrong, it was filled with bajillions of fungus and abyss mages to the point that even your persistent partner starts to get exhausted.
After a while, the enemies in your side starts to lower in number. But before you could even relax, a pyro abyss mage lift it's staff to summon an attack to Tighnari's back.
"TIGHNARI LOOK OUT!!!" You screamed while running with the help of your wings to get to him faster. You hold Tighnari's waist securely as you start to fly up to avoid the attack, but a part of your wings got burned from the attack so the flight was not particularly smooth.
"Should we fled away for now? The enemy is too many for us to handle, we probably need backup." You suggested, impatiently waiting for Tighnari's answer.
"Yes we better fled away now, I'll run and you fly." Tighnari said while trying to get off your grasp. But his attempt shows no avail, your grip only got stronger around his waist to prevent him from getting away.
"No you're NOT running, flying is faster so I'm carrying you like it or not." You protested, flapping your wings harder to fly faster as you two fled away from the crowd of never ending mobs.
The sounds of fungus screeching fades into the wind as you enjoy your flight with Tighnari that went smoothly, you two looked in awe of the view of Sumeru in silence while basking in each other's presence to relax from the previous battle.
It's all good and peaceful until you start to feel the sting of pain on your wings from the mage's attack intensified, and realize that some of your feather start falling off too. Your energy was almost spent to it's last bits but you tried to push your boundaries a bit more further, so you tried to fly longer only for the attempt being not successful as your flight start to get less stable and lower.
- Tighnari's POV -
"Huh, our flight is starting to be less stable and lower. Is Y/n tired?" I mumbled in my mind. I turn to ask her if they want to take a break, but before I could fully turn my head to ask her, a gust of wind surge to my back and made me realize that we're starting to fall.
"Y/N?! W-WE'RE FALLING! ARE YOU OK?!" I asked in a panic, but before I could get an answer, a sudden warmth start to embraced my surroundings. I realized that it was Y/n holding me in their embrace with their wings wrapped protectively around me.
"S-Sorry Tighnari, I think I'm starting to get tired and I. . .C-Can't keep up. . ." Y/n stuttered in a volume barely above a whisper as we fell onto a tree. My sight was blocked by their figure, but I can see Y/n's head hitting a few big tree branches which raise my concerns on them even further.
I closed my eyes reflectively to prepare for the harsh fall, only to fell on a soft surface. I slowly opened my eyes to realize that Y/n cushioned my fall which makes me scurry away from them, afraid that I might cause more injuries since I'm heavier than them.
"Y/n? Y/n are you ok? Are you there???" I asked concernedly while patting their body to check for any injuries. I sighed in relief to see that they just pass out and the injuries was only a few bruises on their head which is not that bad. That is until I turn them over the see a nasty burn on the edge of their wings, with some feather that either has fallen off or start to loosen up.
"Oh Y/n. . .You could've said that you want to rest so we don't have to harshly fall onto the tree." I huffed while taking my cape and wrap it around their wings to prevent further infections from spreading, mumbling words of scolding to Y/n even though I knew they can't hear it.
After checking them up for one more time, I carried them and start walking back to Gandharva ville, keeping an eye out in case there's any herbs that might help with their wings. And after a grueling walk in the forest, I finally arrived at our destination. I set Y/n up on a bed and start making the remedies for their wings and something to heal their bruises.
When the remedies was ready, I gently applied it to the edge of their wings, and start wrapping some bandages to the ones that are already applied with the remedies. I suddenly stop what I was doing when I heard a quiet whimper from Y/n as they start to stir awake, they try to get up but only for them to fail and fall back to the bed with a slight grumble of disappointment.
"Woah careful there, you got your wings slightly burned and a few bruises on your head so don't just suddenly woke up." I said, fixing their position up.
"Wha-Oh, I almost forgot about our withering spree. A-Are you ok though Tighnari? Did you break a bone on the fall? Are you injured? Do you need any help?" Y/n asked with strong concern lacing their voice even though their voice is so little.
"Silly, It should've been ME asking you that. Not you, you're the one who's more injured since you also acts as a cushion on my fall." I said while ruffling their hair up since I felt sort of irritated that they forgot their current condition.
"Because of your current condition, it's best if you rest for at least a week. And don't try to fly with your wings, it's on recovery. I'm always watching you so don't you dare use it to fly off somewhere and cause trouble." I explained, my index finger poking on their forehead to make it clearer.
"*Sigh* Yes yes I get it Tighnari, I won't run away like last time. Are you ok though? You didn't answer my question." Y/n protested while trying to sit up.
"Yes I'm ok. Anyways do you need anything? Are you having a feeling that's foreign or not the usual?" I asked back.
"No, not really. I'm just sort of upset I can't use my wings for a while. if it's ok with you, can I hug you?" Y/n asked awkwardly, looking away from me because of what seems like a slight embarrassment.
"Sure, you can. How about we cuddle instead?" I offered which pulled an intense nod from Y/n. I lied down on the bed as Y/n snuggle up and nuzzle their face on my chest. A few minutes later, a wet stain start to form slowly on my clothes which surprised me. I checked to see what happened, only to see Y/n quietly crying while holding back a sob.
"Hey hey, what's wrong now?" I asked concernedly, holding their head up to face me.
"*Sniff* S-Sorry that I. .I-I was causing more trouble for you, and for dropping you mid air." Y/n stuttered between sobs while rubbing their tears.
"*Sigh*, It's fine ok? It's not your fault, blame the stupid abyss mage for burning your wings." I said while thinking of anything to cheer them up. An idea suddenly popped on my mind, "it's a bit absurd but it's worth a shot I guess." I said on my mind even though doubts is surrounding me.
I start to use my Dendro vision to grow a few flowers such as Sumeru roses, Padisarah and some Kalpalata lotus flowers. I reach over Y/n's wings and start decorating it with the flowers, and made a little flower crown for them with the leftovers.
"Wh-What is this for?" Y/n asked slightly confused.
"You like flowers right? I might as well use my vision to cheer you up at least once, is it wrong?" I asked back, patting their head and putting the flower crown on.
"N-No there's nothing wrong, I'm just surprised that's all." Y/n explained. They we're about to say something, but only to be interrupted by a sudden yawn coming out of their mouth.
"You're sleepy huh? wanna get some sleep?" I offered, a yawn also sneaks it's way on my mouth, which gets me thinking if their yawns are contagious.
"Sure, *yawn* Thank you, Tighnari." Y/n said while snuggling back on my chest, their fingers twirling with my hoodie strings which makes them slowly dozing off to the hands of sleep.
"No problem. have a nice rest, my dear Lunar Lotus." I said, kissing the crown of their head and stroking their hair gently. As I also start to slowly succumbs to the hands of sleep.
pairing: loki x teen! reader (platonic), thor x teen!reader (platonic) avengers x teen!reader (platonic), slight asgardian oc x reader (romantic)
description: Fed up with the avengers treatment of Loki after he started living in the compound, you’ve spent less and less time with them and more and more time with Loki and Thor. Until one day, you think of a brilliant idea.
request: “Can we have a part 2 of "Not a villian"? Loki's relationship with the reader grows and they became good friends, the avengers relationship with the reader deteriorates a little when they want to have normal conversations with the reader like before but she just doesn't want to talk to them, because she knows the avengers will bring Loki's topic again, they try to confront her about her behavior so the reader just snaps at them"My opinion about loki hasn't change, he is my friend now, if You don't want to hear what I have to say just because I'm Young and naive, then deal with it, at the end of the day, my opinion doesn't matters for all you right? At least Thor trusts in me and that's all I need"”
word count: 3802
warnings: prolly a few curse words, avengers being poopy friends, overprotective besties. reader has wings
part two of not a villain
It's been a few weeks since you and Loki had that talk in your room, and your friendship has done nothing but improve. On the flip side, your relationship with the avengers has done nothing but deteriorate. You’ve finally had enough of them treating you like a kid, and if they weren’t going to value your input as they would an adult’s then you would stop giving them input altogether. Your conversations with any of them have been very limited and you spent most of your time with Loki, which killed two birds with one stone because you knew the Avengers wouldn’t try to talk to you when you were hanging out with him. Thor has started spending more time on earth as he’s almost finished making the arrangements needed to stay on earth for extended periods of time to be there for his brother. The times he’s here, the three of you all hang out and you felt as though the brothers’ relationship was improving as well. Thor has confided in you that their relationship has been rocky throughout the years and that he truly feels as though you're making a difference in Loki’s life.
“Thank you for being a great friend, Lady [Y/n]. A good friend to Loki, and a good friend to me,” He said one day as he was about to go back to Asgard. You felt tears well up in your eyes and you gave the tall man a tight hug before saying goodbye.
You had just been messing around in the kitchen with Loki, making one of your favorite dishes. He took the food to his room and was there waiting for you to join him as you finished cleaning up a bit. You saw Natasha, Bruce, Clint, Sam, and Tony walk into the kitchen and it looked like they were about to lecture you so you hurriedly tried to escape the kitchen.
“[Y/n],” Sam said, stopping you in your tracks. You sighed and turned to them, sitting down on a chair that sat next to the kitchen island. You motioned for them to get on with it.
“We’re worried about you. You’ve barely said 4 words to us this week. I understand that you think Loki is being a good friend, but look at what he’s doing to you. You’re not speaking to us at all. He’s not a good influence on you,” Sam continued.
You scoffed, “Oh please, don’t blame Loki for what you guys did to yourself.”
“How did we do this? This all started because you defended Loki,” Tony defended and you narrowed your eyes and fluffed out your wings in defense.
“Of course, you’d try to swing this around on me. You guys don’t think I'm mature enough to do anything! To do anything by myself! You don’t even trust me to make the decision on who to trust!” You started to raise your voice and gave a harsh flap of your wings to punctuate your argument. You watched them blink as they felt the gust of air blow past them.
“[Y/n], calm down,” Natasha said, walking towards you.
“No! My opinion on Loki hasn't changed, he is my friend now, and if you don't want to hear what I have to say just because I'm young and naive, then deal with the silence. Because I’m done trying to prove to you all that I can make decisions for myself. At the end of the day, you guys don’t value my opinion. At least Thor and Loki trust me because that's all I need.” You finished your statement and didn’t give them any time to say anything else because you started to run to Loki’s room. You didn’t make it very far, because you ran into Loki in the hallway that connected the kitchen and his room.
“You heard that all, didn’t you?” You asked, your voice cracked as you looked at your feet, not being able to look at him without crying.
“I did.” That was all he said as he wrapped his arms around you. You started fully crying.
“How is it you always find a way to eavesdrop when I’m defending you,” You joked through your tears.
“I can’t miss people praising me, I am my favorite topic,” he joked back, rubbing your back to comfort you. “Now come on, we have food to eat and a movie to watch.”
As you two were watching the movie, Thor came to visit. He joined the two of you when he found out you were watching a good movie, and during it, you turned to him.
“Thor, when are you going back to Asgard?”
“Later today, I was just stopping by today. Why do you ask?” He asked in response, popping some popcorn into his mouth.
“How long are you going to be there?”
“2 days, why?” He asked again, not getting where this was going.
“Let me come with you please!”
He choked on the popcorn in his mouth as he sat up. Your eyes widened as you watched the god’s reaction.
“You want to come to Asgard?” He asked, almost in disbelief.
“Yeah of course, why wouldn’t I?” You asked him.
“Well… I don’t see why you can’t. But don’t you need to ask permission first?” He asked, moving the popcorn bowl off of his lap and sitting up to look at you fully now. It was now clear that he was actually taking your request seriously.
“Of course not, they trust me enough to let me go. I’ll let them know where I’m going and that I’ll be back in two days! Easy.” Of course, you weren’t going to, but Thor didn’t need to know that. You saw Loki raise his brow at you and you gave him a little nudge to let him know to not say anything.
“Well, perfect! It will be lovely to show you around Asgard. I’m sure you’ll love it. Loki, would you like to come too?” The brother offered.
“Aren’t I still on ‘house arrest’?” Loki questioned, marking the quotation marks with his fingers as he spoke.
“That doesn’t include Asgard,” Thor enlightened him. Loki’s face dropped and he deadpanned at Thor.
“So I could’ve gone back to Asgard with you this whole time?” He asked.
“You left me here with all of the people I fought with, and didn’t even let me know that I could take a break from them and go back home?” Loki asked again. From an outsider's view, it would look like he was getting angry, but you could tell he wasn’t actually that mad at his brother, just playing with him.
Thor smirked as Loki lunged at him and they started wrestling. You laughed as you watched Thor kick Loki off of him and then sit on top of him.
“Alright,” Loki wheezed out. “I yield,” slapping Thor’s leg as he tried to get him off so he would stop crushing his lungs.
As Thor got off, he turned to you, not even helping Loki up. Loki, being dramatic, gave Thor a sour look as he coughed and got up himself.
“You won’t need much, as we can prepare a room for you, but if you want to bring anything then go ahead and pack it now so we can get going,” Thor advised you and you smiled wide at him.
“Thank you!” You yelled, bringing Loki and Thor into a big hug. “This is going to be so much fun.”
After packing a small bag of things you thought you might need for two days, you met Loki and Thor outside. There was a spot designated for Thor to use the Bifrost to summon him back to Asgard so he didn’t ruin all of the grass around the compound.
“Are you ready?” Thor asked, holding Mjolnir out, ready to call the Bifrost. You nodded, and he raised the hammer to the sky. Your vision was suddenly filled with all different colors and you felt your body raise off the ground, without the help of your wings. You looked around with awe at the things speeding past you, the stars and nebulas and planets you could see. It was like all of the Nasa telescope pictures you’d seen in your life but in person. It hit you that you were actually traveling through space right now.
You finally saw the end of the ‘tunnel’ and felt your feet touch a hard surface again.
You looked back at the Bifrost as it closed and the light dimmed out. Looking forward you saw some of the most beautiful and amazing sights you’d ever seen in your life. But before you could take it all in, you realized there was a person standing in the middle of the spherical room you were in. His eyes were yellow and he wore a horned helmet.
“[Y/n], this is Heimdall, he is the Guardian of the Bifrost bridge,” Thor introduced you to him. Heimdall’s yellow eyes moved to look at you. You smiled a little shyly and gave him a small wave. He gave no response to your greeting as he looked over to Loki, who was doing his best to ignore the gatekeeper and move on into Asgard.
“Just what Asgard needs. Two troublemakers,” Heimdall told Thor sarcastically.
You looked at him with surprise on your face.
“Troublemaker? I understand why you would say that about Loki, but [Y/n] is-” Thor began to defend you but was cut off by Heimdall.
“Someone who lied to you in order to be brought here,” Heimdall stated. You opened your mouth in shock.
“How did you…” You began to ask him how he knew.
“I am The Watcher of Worlds. I see all,” He replied.
“What does he mean [Y/n]? About you lying?” Thor asked.
“I didn’t actually ask permission from the Avengers to come here. I lied and told you they were fine about it but they’re probably freaking out right now. But it’s fine. A little teenage rebellion is a rite of passage on Earth,” You explained.
Loki was smiling at you, a proud look on his face. Thor was pouting.
“I can’t believe you lied to me,” Now it was Thor’s turn to be dramatic. You rolled your eyes and laughed as you all three started walking over the bridge. You marveled at everything.
“It’s a bit overwhelming how beautiful everything is,” You stated. You three were almost in the heart of Asgard when you stopped in your tracks as people started filling your vision.
“What’s wrong?” Thor asked.
“Have your people ever seen… someone like me?” You asked, fear started leaking in your heart. You already made children scream in fear on Earth. You couldn’t take that from another planet.
“What? A Midgardian? Yes, they’ve seen a few-”
“No, Thor, I have wings. I’m not just a normal Midgardian. I’m kind of a freak on Earth. Are the Asgardians going to think the same way?” You asked.
Thor took your hand in his. You looked down at it and then looked up to meet his eyes. He then realized how afraid you were as he could feel you trembling.
“You’re not a freak. Not here, or on Midgard,” He told you. You gave him a small smile. It wasn’t enough to make you change the way you thought about yourself or repair the damages that the experiments Hydra did on you, but it was enough to get you to start moving again. You reached over and took Loki’s hand, not wanting him to be left out. You also didn’t know how the people of Asgard viewed Loki. They obviously knew that he tried to take over Earth. But he wasn’t in jail so… that was probably a good sign.
As people started seeing you three, there was a mix of reactions. Happiness when they saw Thor, surprise when they saw Loki, and curiosity when they saw you.
A few kids approached you which caused you to stop and look at them, releasing Thor and Loki’s hands.
“Are you an angel?” One of them asked. You couldn’t help but smile.
“No I’m not an angel,” You told them, kneeling down to be beside them.
A little boy outstretched his arm and held it up to your wing, “Can I touch it?” He asked. You spread your wing so the kids could all touch it. They all got so excited about it and started squealing, running back to their parents in excitement.
You got back up and smiled, continuing on with Thor and Loki.
The majority of your time on Asgard was spent sightseeing. You flew around and had the brothers take you to their favorite childhood places. They told you many stories of their youth and you got to know them more and more with each passing moment. The second night was approaching fast and you felt bittersweet that the time on Asgard was coming to an end. However, to commemorate this moment, a ball was being placed. Thor was honoring his brother being back in Asgard and to new beginnings in Loki’s future. And he was also honoring Asgard’s special guest; you.
The palace handmaidens helped you get ready and you were given a dress for the occasion. It was a gorgeous [f/c] dress that complimented your body perfectly. The back was low cut, giving your wings an ample amount of space and allowing them to be the star of the look. On your head was a gold chain wrapped around your horns and it sat gently on your forehead. Stars and moon charms filled the chain and gave it more of an elegant look.
Loki and Thor were talking near the throne when you made your entrance. You didn’t know how but you ended up being fashionably late, allowing you to make a grand entrance in front of everyone. On Earth, being the center of attention like this would make you anxious. But here, everyone seemed to look at you like you were something straight out of a painting.
You were approached by a handsome gentleman sometime later in the night, after catching up with Thor and Loki and thanking them for the dress and inviting you to the event. The boy looked to be around your age, but you knew he was probably 100s of years old.
“You really do look like an angel.” He started the conversation off strong with a compliment. You blushed and thanked him.
“I saw you when you arrived in Asgard, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since. Would you do me the honor of joining me in this dance?” He asked, offering his hand.
“I would love to, but I don’t think I’d be the best dance partner. I don’t really know how to,” You replied, hoping you didn’t look as flustered as you were.
“Don’t worry, just follow my lead,” He said, reaching over with his other hand to place your hands where they needed to be on his body. One on his shoulder and the other interlaced with his. When he put his hand on your waist, you could’ve sworn you stopped breathing. He started guiding you through the dance, the music filling your ears and the boy filling all of your other senses. He smelled like a meadow filled with flowers and he looked just as beautiful. His eyes were so bright and genuine you felt yourself get lost in them. He pulled you in closer and you felt your stomach do somersaults. His hands were so soft and warm as he moved them softly from your waist to your back, right below where your wings came out of your back. You shivered at the first feeling of the skin to skin contact but relaxed into his touch. Your eyes moved from his eyes to his lips where they stayed for a second before moving your line of sight back to meet his eyes. You wet your lips out of nervousness, but this caused him to look at your lips. You felt the space between the two of you start to get smaller as you both inched toward each other slowly. Your lips were about to touch when you felt his presence disappear entirely. His hands no longer on you and his body no longer next to you. You looked around to see Thor and Loki standing there protectively, and deduced that they pushed him away from you.
The boy stuttered out an apology, before bolting away from them, not even looking at you again. You felt yourself boil with rage.
“What was that?!” You shouted, causing a few of the nearby guests to look over at the commotion.
The two brothers noticed this and moved to have you all talk somewhere more private but you didn’t let them get the chance, you spread your wings and flew out of the big hall you were in. Through hallways you’d never been down before until you got to a big library with a large glass ceiling with constellations on it.
You sat in the middle of the library, looking up at the sky through the glass.
Moments passed before you heard movement from one of the bookshelves near you.
The shadow stepped more into the light and you saw it was the same boy from earlier. When he turned and saw you, he looked frightened and was about to take off when you asked him not to.
“Please! Stay…” You realized how silly it was to sound so desperate over someone you had just met but you didn’t want him to be afraid of you. Too many people were.
He stopped in his tracks and thought about it before moving back to sit next to you.
“I apologize about earlier. Apparently, they’re protective friends,” You chuckled.
“I get it. We were kind of moving fast. But I kind of got caught up in the moment. You're so beautiful it’s almost dangerous.” He laughed as well before looking at you.
“It’s a good thing they stopped us though. I am leaving tomorrow, it would be unfair of me to start something we can’t finish,” You explained before meeting his gaze.
He looked down at your lips again before going to speak. “Who says we can’t?”
You both sat there for what seemed like a while, the tension almost tangible, before you mentally said screw it and closed the gap between you two, pressing your lips together. He seemed surprised but didn’t hold onto that for long as he moved to reciprocate the kiss. He filled the kiss with so much fire and passion it was crazy to think you had just met him that night. He brought his hand up to cradle your face in his hold and you felt like your skin was being set ablaze like a thousand lightning bolts were being sent into your body from where his skin met yours and bolted around your body before settling in your stomach. But just as quickly as the kiss started, it was over. You felt him pull away and you slowly opened your eyes to look at him. He smiled softly and slowly released your cheek from his hold.
“That was…” you whispered with the remaining breath in your lungs. No matter how hard you tried, it seemed like the oxygen was stolen from you. But it was in the best possible way.
“Amazing,” He finished for you.
You both spent a while longer together before you started to get up. His expression seemed to fall as he knew what that meant.
“We both knew this was just a temporary visit. I hope to come back soon, but my home is on Midgard.” You told him.
“I know. I hope to see you soon, angel.” He brushed a hair out of your face as he finished his sentence.
You leaned in and gave him a light peck on the cheek before parting ways.
When you reunited with Loki and Thor, who had been apparently searching for you for ‘hours’ as they put it, you were surprised to hear because it hadn't felt that long since you left the ballroom.
“I apologize for getting so upset with you guys, I understand why you didn’t want me dancing with some random stranger, but… I just…” You explained before trailing off. You didn’t want to let them know how guys on Earth never looked at you like he had, how guys on Earth are afraid of you, but he seemed to look at you like you were the most beautiful, harmless thing on any planet.
“You shouldn’t be the one apologizing, we trust you and we know you can be responsible enough to make your own decisions, even if that is who to dance with,” Thor responded.
“Just don’t run off without telling us where you’re going next time,” Loki continued, bumping your arm with his hand. You giggled.
“Wait… next time? You’re gonna bring me back?” You asked.
“Of course, unless you don’t want to,” Thor answered.
“I’d love to! As long as Sam doesn't try to imprison me in the compound for my entire life for pulling this stunt,” You joked and they both laughed.
.
.
“You’re grounded. You’re so grounded! No leaving the compound for a month!” Sam yelled at you when you had gotten back to the compound.
You giggled and Sam froze, looking at you and softening.
“I haven’t seen you laugh in so long,” He confessed.
“You would have seen me laughing if you saw me around Loki,” Your face falling as you brought Loki up again, knowing that the topic probably wasn’t going to go well.
“...Maybe… I guess… I could give him a chance.” Sam started, his tone making it obvious he was hesitant to do what his words were saying.
Your eyes lit up, “Really?!”
“I trust you - slightly less now that you ran away to another planet without telling anyone - but I do truly trust you. I think you're old enough to know who to trust and to make sense of someone's character. If you truly think Loki is a good person, I’ll make more of an attempt to make him feel more welcome and I’ll help you convince the rest of the team. You’re important to us and I think I’d rather have an ex-murderer be acquaintances with me than lose you.”
You smiled and ran up to hug him, your wings curling in towards him as well.
“Thank you, Sam, you’re a great friend and I’ve missed you. You’re just stubborn sometimes.”
“More like overprotective,” He replied, hugging you back.
