Reading your last post and it made me think. What about a "Little Mermaid" style thing with Pinks? Where he gets to have legs in exchange for his voice. Then he wouldn't have to wait around in his lake for his datemate to come.
Oh! This one was really cool :o
Well…. If given the chance, I think that Pinks would give up his tail to be with his datemate! He would, honestly, rather stay in his lake than return to the ocean because if he goes back to the ocean, he wouldn’t be able to see them anymore!
But to give up his voice?
He doesn’t know…
Pinks is a siren. A sirens voice is what they need to live and survive! So, the idea of giving that up? It seems… crazy. It seems crazy to him! But, for you, he would do it. He would give up the very thing that makes him him.
He would give up his tail, his voice, and his lake, just to see you happy. Just to have you as his partner.
Of course you would have to help him out with a lot of stuff! He doesn’t know how human stuff works at all, and the fact that he can’t talk makes it even harder. Plus, you know, learning how to walk is hard…
There are times where he doesn’t like the human world. There are times where he wants to go home to his lake, but he can’t anymore and that’s alright, since he’s with you!
"Heavily pregnant person A eagerly waits by the door everyday for person B to return from work so they can get snuggles and foot rubs "
This but a bit different to fit Pinks as person A ?
Hehe okay
Pinks has always wanted a family.
He wanted a place to feel like he belonged, and wanted to have people to always be around him.
Yet, when he found out that he was expecting? He felt all the nerves that he never thought he would feel again. The feelings of worry, wondering if he was going to end up alone again. Would Y/n leave him because he was going to have a baby?
They, luckily, told him that they were happy about it! They had no idea what the baby would turn out looking like, but Pinks had a feeling it might be more human with just a tail?
Or... you know, he really had no idea either? It's gonna be interesting at least; he knows that for sure!
Today he woke up, swimming up off the bottom of the lake, and looks around, yawning. He rubs at his eyesockets with the palms of his hands and looks around. Okay... where was Y/n? They were supposed to come and see him today, and he's been looking forward to that! They came to see him as often as they could... sometimes he wished that he could go and live with them but he knew that that wasn't going to work.
He pulls himself to sit on the edge of his lake, stretching his arms above his head and looks down. His ecto was formed, and he could see the soul of the soulling forming. A half human and half monster soul, who would have guessed, right?
Who would have guessed that this would happen one day? He used to feel like he would die alone and now he has a datemate and a baby forming?
Shocking...
As he was lost in thought, he heard footsteps, and a voice "Pinks!" he perks up, looking over and smiling when he saw it was his datemate!
"Y/n!" His fins were fluttering happily, "I was starting to worry. Are you okay?"
They smile, nod, and sit down beside him "I'm perfectly fine" they start, "I just ran a little late. Don't worry about it" They reach up, patting the top of his skull causing him to let out soft pleasing sounds.
"Are you feeling alright?" They ask.
He nods, scooting closer to lean against them, moving his tail to be on their lap "I'm okay," He answers, resting his head against their shoulder. "Just ready for my cuddles. Did you bring the stuff I asked for?"
They nod, pulling out the box of sushi. It was most likely troublesome to get it this far but hey, Pinks had cravings. They take the box, starting to eat mumbling a thank you around them, while Y/n started to rub and massage his tail.
The prompt "I'm happy when I'm around you" with Pinks, pretty, pretty please!
Sorta angsty lol
Pinks didn't really know what was happening when he was put into the tank. Y/n was a friend that he made… quite a bit ago; and today they came to his lake, telling him that they had something really big planned! They filled a tank with water from his pond and were able to get him into it, then they started to 'drive'. It was enjoyable to see all of the trees go rushing by, but they wouldn't really answer anything that he was asking.
Pinks trusted Y/n. He trusted them more than anyone else in the whole world. He knew that they wouldn't hurt him, right? There was no way that they would do anything to hurt him for whatever reason… right?
The longer the trip was lasting, the more worried he started to become. The tank was so small and dark. They had to cover it with a blanket so nobody would see him, but he was able to move it a little to peek out, seeing all of the things rush by. They were going so fast… the 'car' bounced sometimes, which caused some of the water to splash out, and they said that they were sorry about that.
He didn't think he minded too much; I mean, it's not like they did that on purpose. It was still shocking each and every time it happened, though. He lets the blanket drop back down and turns in the tank, looking towards the front, asking, "Y/n, where are we going? I'm starting to get kind of nervous…" He decided to be honest with them. He trusted Y/n, but he was still allowed to feel nervous about all of this! Where the heck were they going?
"Well…" They start, looking forward, "Remember how we spoke about you going back to the ocean one day? I found the best place where we could let you go… you don't have to live in the little lake anymore." Y/n sounded so pleased when they said that. It was like they'd been thinking about this for a while.
Pinks blinks once, then twice, and his sockets widen when he hears that. He sits up more in his tank, the water brushing over his tail. It felt kind of gross since it had been out of the water for a little while. This tank really was way too small for him to stay in, as expected. "What? No, Y/n, I can't go back to the ocean. I've been… h-how would we get to see each other again? The ocean is so big!" He wouldn't know how to get around, how to hunt, and don't even get him started on the fact that there would most likely be things that would try to kill him.
Plus, he would be alone!
"I… don't know, but I'm sure we could work something out. Pinks, that lake isn't good for you, the food is running out. You need to go."
"But I don't want to! I'm happy when I'm around you," he cried. "Y/n, please, I don't want to go." He felt like he was going to have a panic attack. This isn't fair, they talked about it yes, but he thought they would plan it more together, not just… a spur of the moment type of deal. Y/n didn't respond, so he sank deeper into the water, letting out a whimper.
Soon enough the car stopped again and when he peeked out, he saw that they were back at his lake. He blinks once, then twice, and looks over at Y/n who walks over and moves the blanket fully. "I'm… sure we can figure out something else. I'm sorry Pinks." They looked upset with themselves, "I should have asked you before just doing it… forgive me?" they look up at him, their head turned to the side.
He looks at them and smiles weakly, then pulls them into a hug shaking his head, "Of course I forgive you… just bring it up next time… can you get me out of this tank?" They laugh and nod, helping him get back into his water. They could come up with a plan later on.
“ Say you won’t let go of me.” with Pinks, please? I know it's odd, but I want to see the cutie being a little bit possessive.
It had been a while since you were trapped by Pinks. You thought that he was a good friend, but it seemed like maybe he wanted more? You don't know, all you know, is that you were trapped. He put you to sleep with his song at one point and when you woke up, you were in a cave and the only way out, that you saw, was in the water. You tried before but you had to come back before you lost your breath. It seemed that it was too far for you to swim out…
When you heard the water splashing you looked over, from where you had been trying to sleep, to see Pinks with his head poked out of the water just enough for you to see his sockets. You squint at him while he smiles, lifting his head more, "You comfortable?"
"No, why did you bring me in here? What is wrong with you?" You spat at him, anger in your tone which you saw caused his pupils to sharpen before going back to normal and he smiles, laughing as he shook his head.
"Oh, Y/n, nothing is wrong with me, I just… I knew that you would have to leave one day. Now, you can't leave! You're here with me forever!" He laughs, clapping his hands together. It made a weird sound of bone on bone contact, "You won't disappear and I won't have to say good bye to you. You're mine and I'm yours" He reaches out, grabbing your hands, "Say you won't let go of me, okay? You're mine, I'm yours. Forever."
You shake your head and pull your hands from him, then stand up and walk as far from the water as you could and cross your arms over your chest. It wasn't fair that you were being kept here.
The two of you stare at each other, until he lets out a soft sound of annoyance and he sinks down into the water. You saw his tail as he swam away through the tunnel. You were planning on trying to learn how to hold your breath longer… though it was still dangerous. You didn't know what he would do to you if he caught you trying to leave again.
I think it would depend! He has an old friend that's a siren that he met before the storm happened that trapped him in the lake. If there was a siren in the lake with him, he might not like it too much because that's taking food from him...
It's nice to have someone to talk to, of course, but he's still knowing he would need to eat and if someone gets in the way of that, it could be dangerous... plus, honestly, a lot of sirens don't get along most of the time anyway.
Why would he? He wasn't a human, and he didn't even live in the ocean where he could try to find others of his own kind. For all he knew, he was the last of the sirens, and the thought of that... frightened him.
That was until he met Y/n!
They were a very sweet person, someone that he strongly loved. He would do so many things for them, if they allowed him. He would give them all of the food that he had if they wished for that. He would give up his tail, if that would make them happy.
He would give up his life, if they asked him to do it with their big beautiful eyes.
When you literally had nothing, you would give everything to keep that one thing that you really had.
And Y/n was that thing that he was so happy he had.
When he woke up that day, at the bottom of his lake, he yawns stretching out then starts to swim up but he paused when he saw something on the top of the water. He could feel slight movement, and things being placed down. Vibrations in the water... what the hell was that?
He could see shines of the sun through the things blocking most of it. That's just... a little worrying? He swims up, poking his head out of the water. He reaches up, picking the item off of the top of his head, and he saw that they were petals.
Flower petals.
They were red, those were... red roses, right? He looks around, then his eyes landed on his datemate who had been placing the petals and they look at him, making them smile “Aww you woke up before I could finish. What you think?” they hold up flowers. A little pink bow holding them all together.
"You got me flowers?" He asked, slowly swimming over feeling the petals floating around him.
“Mhm~” they hum happily, “Of course! I thought you would like it... what do you think?”
Pinks looks around, then up at them again, and smiles blushing brightly “I love it” he pulls himself out of the water enough, to 'kiss' their cheek his fins flapping happily, splashing the water. “You're so cute!”
Haha now it was Y/n that was blushing!
They were just the sweetest thing in the world, weren't they?
Oh, I'd really, really want the "tender embrace" prompt with Pinks, please.
Hehe this one was really cute.
I love talking about Pinks, they're still one of my favorites. But now I'm having a hard time if he should be with Chum or Mimic haha
Like childhood friends or something else, you know?
Pinks has always loved his datemate.
He loved having them around, he loved being able to call them his datemate, he loved that they came to see him too!
As a siren Pinks needed a lot of attention, and for such a long time, he couldn't have any. You know, being trapped in his lake for as long as he could remember, all alone. He almost got used to being alone but then his datemate came along, and they reminded him of what it was like to have people with you.
He grew to hate the idea of being alone. The feeling would sink into his bones and hurt, it felt like a poison was going through him and it always made him feel sick; but he didn't need to worry about it anymore!
Not anymore.
He had Y/n.
Today he was waiting for them to come and see him! They left yesterday, and they told him that they would be back soon. He hated the idea of them having to leave all the time, but… if they came back, he didn't care.
He would wait as long as he needed.
Right now Pinks was swimming around his lake, his tail whipping through the water, humming under his breath and looking up at the sky. The sun was starting to set, giving everything a nice orange tint.
It looked so pretty out here… he loved being out here but sometimes he wished that he could go back to the ocean. He wondered though, if he went back to the ocean would he be able to see his datemate again? Would he have to choose between the two?
He didn't like the idea…
Luckily he didn't have to think about it too long! He could hear footsteps and his datemate's voice “Pinks! I'm here!” He turns his head quickly, and smiles his fins flapping lightly and he pushes himself a little out of the water to call out to them “Y/n!”
His datemate comes around the corner, out of the trees, looking at him and they wave “I brought you a few things” they hold up a baggy.
He starts to let out soft coos “As long as you're here, that's all that matters” he says, in a happy tone. It really was like that though, his datemate made him happier than he ever thought possible.
“Dork” Y/n chuckles, shaking their head and they walk over to sit down beside the lake. They start to look through the bag, humming under their breath.
While they were distracted Pinks studied them. Pinks was the siren, he was supposed to be the one tempting people but Y/n? He would do anything for them. He would drag himself miles if that meant he got to see them every day. He would let himself dry out if that's what they wanted him to do.
Pinks lets out a little happy bubble sound and he pushes himself out of the water, sliding his arms around his datemate's waist, nuzzling them humming happily.
“Oh! You're cuddly today” They smile, looking over at him and they give him a little nuzzle. He returns the nuzzle, letting out a happy hum.
“You don't come around all the time, I need to get my cuddles in while I can” he starts to pepper kisses against their face and neck, his tail moving through the water.
Y/n reaches up, starting to pet the top of his skull with their fingers and holds up a piece of food to his mouth, something that they decided to bring. He takes it into his mouth, gently, and continues to nuzzle them, bubbling happily.
He loved his datemate.
He would do anything for them…
And right now, all he wanted to do was hold them in his embrace until they wanted to leave.
Yo, taking inspiration from the post you made about Pinks just now, how would he react if a human woman one day fell for his call, but as he's about to pull them into the water, they suddenly appear to snap out of their trance.
They wrench their arm back and fall onto their behind. Pinks might try to grab at them again, but all he manages to do is claw at their leg a little before they're out of reach. The woman is clearly distressed and hurt from the cuts he gave her, but she's also full of adrenaline and manages to clumsily stumble back and away from him. She'd ignore any calls he might sing/yell out.
Pinks might think this is the end of his hidden lake, but a few days later, a familiar smell returns. The same women is there. She's wearing a pair of shorts, and he can see her leg is bandaged up. Slowly she's approaching the lake, but she takes care in not getting too close to the water's edge. She takes off a backpack, rummages inside of it, take out several large pieces of meat, and then throws a few of them into the lake. The rest she carefully scoots close to the edge of the water.
Once she's satisfied with her work, she takes a few more steps back and sits down onto a log to watch if he comes out. If he doesn't, then she'll eventually call out:
"You're hungry, aren't you? I figured you were desperate for food, so I brought some meat." Silence. "... I didn't tell anyone about you, if you're worried about that."
Sure! Here you go :3 thank you for the ask.
He met her at a pretty bad time.
He had been singing his song, something that the people around his lake most likely knew. A few of them fell for it, sometimes they didn't... sometimes he went a long time without eating. It was troublesome, and made his body feel weird.
Yeah, he was a skeleton, but he was also a siren. He needed to eat! He swam around a lot and... bah, whatever. He just knew that he needed to eat and he had to sometimes eat human or meat.
He used to be able to eat the fruits that would fall into his lake, but that was when he was younger before he grew more and the fruits started to fall less often. It was upsetting. He didn't want to hurt anyone! The people that came had their own lives, and he had to be the one to stop it but he was so hungry. Sometimes he felt like he would pass out because of how long he would sometimes go without eating.
It was something that he did on purpose. He didn't want to have to hurt too many people, he only sang when he NEEDED to eat. As if that made it any better...
Today while Pinks had been swimming around, his body started to cramp his breath hitching and he moves his arms around himself, squeezing his sockets shut. Ugh... how long has it been? Slowly he swims up towards the surface of the water, and climbs out to sit on a rock.
Guess today was another feeding day.
Pinks takes in a slow breath and starts to sing his song. The tune carrying itself in the wind, spreading out for anyone that would hear it. The villagers were getting smarter, they didn't come towards the song but sometimes they couldn't help it. The song would chain them up and force them to walk. Their mind working against themselves.
And that's how he met her.
She was a human, of course, and slowly walked towards his lake. Her eyes were empty, taken by his song. He smiles, mostly just so she wouldn't be scared.
He wasn't happy doing this.
It was something that he had to do.
"Hello" he purrs out, holding out his hands. The woman slowly reaches out so he tried to grab her hand, just to pull her in. Suddenly though, the woman's eyes got light to them again and they widen. She yanks her arm back, losing her balance as she fell back.
"No!" he reaches out to try to grab her again, his finger tips catching on her leg. Her blood spilled from the cuts, dripping down onto the ground and she was able to scramble up, running away. "Come back!" He shouts after her, "Please!" He watched her run away, nerves bubbling up.
Fuck.
What has he done?
She's going to tell everyone. They're going to come and either try to hunt him or they'll come to steal his water or- Ahhhh! There's too many different thoughts of things that they could do to him. He just knows that he's in danger.
He ignored the way that his body ached and grumbled with hunger. He didn't need to eat right now, he just... he needed to figure out what he's going to do. Was he going to die?
The next few days his hunger just grew worse. His pain spreading through his body and his mind telling him to sing his song again, bring people, kill them but he shook his head to try to get those thoughts out of his head... and then the smell was back.
He swam up, staring at the human woman, staring silently. She smelled nice, shit was he drooling? What the hell? He sinks down a little in the water staring at her harder. She doesn't seem to notice him.
What was she doing here?
His eyes shoot down and he saw that she was wearing shorts, bandages wrapped around her leg. He caused that, didn't he? She's getting closer...
He clicks his teeth slightly and perks up when she pulled out the meat, tossing them into his water. His eyeshines quickly shoot over to look at the water splashing and looks back at her. What was she doing? Really? What the hell was she doing?
She seemed satisfied with her work, taking a few steps back, and sat down. He decided to wait a minute or two...
"You're hungry, aren't you? I figured you were desperate for food, so I brought some meat." She nibbles her bottom lip, not saying anything else for a few seconds then continues. "...I didn't tell anyone about you, if you're worried about that."
She didn't tell anyone? He thought to himself, then swims over slowly and peeks out of the water. He saw her eyes widen a little and he reaches out to pick up one of the meats pulling it into the water with him. He sinks down to eat it away from her, mostly so she wouldn't see it.
After he was done he pokes his head out of the water again, looking at her. He opens his mouth, then shuts it again, feeling nervous. After a few seconds he sighs out slowly "I'm sorry" he mumbles. He saw her flinch when he first spoke so he shuts his mouth quickly, turning his head down.
"I know you were just hungry... I didn't expect the stories to be true, you know? T-They... they told me about it, but I didn't really listen" she laughs, rubbing her leg. "I guess this is a little my fault, huh?"
He lets out a soft sad sound and shakes his head. He grabs another piece of the meat, "it isn't your fault," He starts, "The trees around my lake haven't been dropping as much fruit, and people have been hunting a lot so there hasn't been as many animals around."
She nods slightly. The two of them continue to speak to each other, and Y/n kept coming back! Slowly coming closer and always bringing him some type of food. It made him feel nice, and he was happy to have someone to talk to.
Pinks even started to get some weird feelings around Y/n, wondering if that was because he had a crush on her or something else? Whatever the reason, he had no idea, but he was so happy to have her.
