#reader x archer

[fandom-go-round]

Hey I tried to request this last month but was too late, and I don’t think this is nsfw at all so maybe some Shirou Emiya and a reader who has Hanahaki syndrome for him? I’d be interested in both human or servant version, so pick whichever

Not NSFW at all! This is a fun request, thank you for resending it in! I’m going to do a combination of human and servant.\

Warnings: Diseases, Coughing up Flowers, Implied Blood, Implied Body Horror, Implied Canon Typical Violence, Mentions of Unrequited Love

The yellow petals only show up in the middle of the night. You wake up and they’re on the edge of your pillow, drool surrounding them. You’re not an idiot. You can feel the way your breathing has gotten harder but you ignore it. There’s no way that you’re into him. Never.

Your thoughts don’t stop the yellow flowers and eventually you look them up. Black-eyed Susans. You snort and watch only from a distance, ignoring the tickles in your throat and vowing not to talk to him. It doesn’t stop the petals from getting worse, even when you’ve never had a conversation with Shirou Emiya.

It’s a different story when a man in red breaks into your house in the middle of the night. He’s unlike anyone you’ve ever seen and it doesn’t take you long to realize that something crazy is going on. He doesn’t introduce himself, grabbing you and jumping out of the window. Your apartment building goes up in flames and you want to scream until the world listens to you for once.

Encouragement. Motivation. Justice. That’s what your flowers represent. It’s only as you watch Shirou and Archer fight that you begin to understand what they mean. Why these are the flowers to represent your love. You can’t contain your coughing, Rin wrapping an arm around your shoulders as your lungs burn. Petals scatter across the floor and it’s poetic, in a fucked up way. You gasp and look both, two pairs of identical eyes staring back at you. You don’t know what to say when you’re breathing gets easier and neither do they.

Any kind of Soulmate AU stuff with Archer Emiya x reader would be nice

Archer is a hard man to read. Even though you have each other’s names tattooed on your skin, that doesn’t mean you can read his mind. He gives nothing away, face mostly stoic or making a sarcastic comment. The only way you can really tell he cares at first is by the hovering; he doesn’t let you out of his sight, even if he’s not standing directly next to you.

You try not to read into the fact that a Servant has your name on their skin. You’re a Master but you know this isn’t a conventional Grail War, no matter how hard they try and push it. Emiya completely agrees with you and it becomes the two of you against the world, at least for now. It’s hard to resist the pull of a soulmate but you’ll do your best.

It’s easy to work with Archer. He seems to know what you’re thinking before you say it and helps support your battle plans. He’s not afraid to correct something he thinks is wrong or shoo you off from something dangerous. It’s so easy to work with him it’s hard to realize that you’re connection is getting stronger.

Things go from bad to good surprisingly quickly. The war you’re fighting dissolves into something else entirely as you watch the Clocktower burn. It’s not your fault it’s on fire but you’re not keen to save it either. Archer gives you a half smile and you smile back, reaching out to squeeze his hand. You might have no idea what’s going to happen but at least you’re in it together.

Could I get headcannons of an archer Emiya helping their master through an extreme depressive episode?

Warnings: Depression, Mental Health Issues, Talk about Unhealthy Habits, Talk about Unhelpful way to deal with Depression (Archer is good but he’s not perfect)

He notices your moods leading up to an episode more than the episode itself. It starts with withdrawing from the world, nothing too dramatic but refusing to go shopping and things like that. You smile less often and he catches you more than once looking off into space and having to be brought back to reality.

On the day of, Emiya doesn’t notice much. His days start early and it takes until breakfast for him to notice that you’re not there. He runs a strict house and you know when meals start. When he goes to investigate and finds you in bed still, curled up and not reacting to the world.

You don’t acknowledge him saying anything and if you do, it’s a grunt of a whimper. Sometimes you’ll just cry, not looking at anything specific, eyes glazed and inside your head. Archer let’s you wallow for the first day, taking care of everything around the house and bringing you food and water. You don’t usually eat but if it’s not too bad, you’ll nibble here and there.

He’s excellent about taking care of you. Dirty dishes never pile up and he helps you bathe when it’s been a while. Soft words don’t come easily to him, but he goes out of his way to be kinder to you, speaking lowly but firmly. He won’t let you waste away and if it’s been a few days he may scold you and force you out and about. It’s a mix of being exactly what you need and something that you dread. He pulls you out of your episode, in the most loving way he can. It’s not perfect but it’s enough.

It’s spooky season time!😎✨ Not sure if I’m doing this correctly but I do have a request! How do you think Chiron and Achilles would react to dressing up with their love one? For some reason I can imagine them dressing up a matching theme. Thank you!

No worried anon, you did this perfectly! This was super fun to write, thank you for sending it in!

Chiron:

You have to be the one to approach him about a costume. He’s content to watch everyone dress up and it won’t cross his mind once to dress up himself. Chiron is happy to let you pick the theme and he’ll gather materials to make them how you want.

He’s handier with a needle and thread than you would think. He’s nowhere near Vlad’s level of skill but he can sew in a straight line and add some fancy stitches here and there. If you’re wanting something completely crazy, Chiron will ask one of the more skilled Servants for tips and lessons. He’s very quick to pick up new things so by the time the costumes are done he’s improved more than you would think possible.

Chiron likes costumes that are cuter and more majestic than silly or dark. He thinks its funny if you want to do something around Greece and will happily make the costume more period accurate. Overall, he’s not going to veto anything except if you want him to dress up as Achilles. It would be really funny and he does like to torture his pupil but he doesn’t want to mess with his hair. Even he has lines he won’t cross.

He sticks close to you while you’re both dressed up, smiling at how excited you get when people compliment your matching outfits. He’s content to let you take the reigns and parade around. Chiron is a supportive partner and goes out of his way to make you feel good. No one is going to give you any negative comments with him there, smiling threateningly over your shoulder. This is one of his happiest moments with you and he’ll be damned if someone tries to stop it.

Achilles:

He’s super excited to dress up. The minute people start talking about dressing up and costumes, Achilles is coming to you and asking question after question. You explain to him the traditions and he immediately asks to do matching costumes. It adds more emphasis on your relationship and he loves that. And he refuses to let anyone else do a matching costume with you so he’s going to ask first.

Achilles wants to do something dramatic or sexy, maybe a little scary. He knows that he’s sexy and he knows that you’re sexy, why not show off? You’re the best partner to have and he wants everyone to know that the two of you are together. If you hate that idea he’ll back off, puppy dog eyes wide and lip sticking out. You call the shots realistically and Achilles will let you pick what you’re most comfortable with.

He is no help at all trying to make the costumes. He’s happy to go shopping and running errands with you but actual sewing? Don’t let him touch a sewing machine or a needle and thread. Achilles will help! Oh sure he will! Buttons will go on backwards and things won’t be even but he’s so proud of it. You have to let him down gently and distract him a little to actually get sewing done.

Your costumes make a big splash. Well, Achilles makes a big splash and you’re around for the ride. Everyone loves your costumes and Achilles gets dragged into a few different conversations and mock fights. You’re happy to let him go, chatting with other people and having a good time. Achilles insists that the two of you get a photo together and he carries it with him everywhere. It’s something that he treasures, just like he treasures you.
