tiny summer blurb - Xander

“Someone makes it stop, please!”

You lazily turn your head to Xander who's laying on the floor next to you. He’s shirtless and sweat glides off his torso and makes his hair stick to his forehead. Heatwaves have been kicking your ass for a few days.

“Sorry, I’m not mother nature,” you answer dryly (not out of annoyance, but because your body is absolutely overheating and your throat is absolutely dry).

Xander groans and wipes off the sweat off his forehead with his arm. 

“Somehow,” you add, “I feel like that pair of black jeans isn’t helping. Just so you know.”

“Mh, I’d take it off, but I think my body’s stuck to the floor. Can’t move.”

You snort and roll over, resting on your elbows as you gaze at his face. He’s pink from the heat, and he looks in such discomfort, you can’t help but feel pity for the poor man. You reach for his zipper and tug down on his pants. He wiggles his hips off the floor until he’s laying in just his underwear. You throw the pants further away and go back to laying next to him. Your wings are spread out as much as you can to avoid the warm feelings of feathers on your skin.

“I feel like you could cook eggs on me at this point,” Xander nearly whines.

“... You want to try?”

There’s a silence, and you just know he’s considering it. You look back at him. He looks back at you.

“I think I’m good,” he finally says.

You nod. You spend a moment more in silence. The light curtains are rippling in the weak breeze since you opened all the windows in hopes of creating some air. Finally, Xander hauls himself up.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m gonna get food. And pillows. I don’t know about you, but no way I’m going to sleep in that hot ass bed.”

“Don’t forget your stuffed animal,” you mumble with closed eyes as he walks away.

You can hear his offended protest (“It’s not mine, it’s Charlotte’s! And it was one time!”) and you smile to yourself.

You’ve drifted off to sleep before he comes back, but when you wake up, there’s a pillow under your head and a bunch of water and snacks by your side. On the other side, despite the heat, there’s Xander.

How would the ro’s react if mc gave them a kiss every morning before they leave for work but one day they forget 🥺

awww :((

Xander thinks this is it. You've changed your mind and realized you could do better. He doesn't say a thing, but his hands shake a little as he pours down a cup of coffee for himself. When MC comes in the evening and kisses him, he'd make it last as long as he can-- either to ground himself or in case you did change your mind and it's the last time he gets to kiss you.

Charlotte gasps with indignation and follows you trough the door. "You're not even going to kiss me?" There's almost a pout on her lips and she holds your sleeve softly. When you (finally!) kiss her, she smiles with satisfaction and steps back, blowing you another kiss as you leave.

Dione squints at you. "Forgot something, my dove?". And trust, you better realize what because otherwise she'll get upset. You can't just make her yearn for a kiss every morning like this and then not do it. If you don't, however, she'll send a bouquet of flowers to you during the day with the note "you owe me a kiss". The flowers spell a slightly passive aggressive message.

Perceval playfully nibs at your neck before you can leave. "No kiss today?" he smiles, his lips pecking the skin of your shoulder. His wings envelope the both of you for a while-- you might be late for work.

Crescent is probably lazing in bed as you prepare for work. When they realize you're about to leave and you still didn't kiss them, they spring out of bed and dramatically throw themselves in front of you. "How unfair of you to break my heart like this, my love! Now you need to kiss me at least twice. And maybe more." They wink at you.

Simping for Xander over here.

aren't we all? 🫶 I want to put him in my pocket and carry him around everywhere

How would the ros react to mc cuddling up to them all of a sudden bc they got cold 👉🏻👈🏻🥺

Awww that's so cute </3

Xander tugs them even closer, and peppers kisses over their face. He offers his sweater or jacket, and keep MC close to him. He just really plays along and try to warm up MC... in any way they want.

Charlotte smiles and offers to make them a cup of something warm. She would apologize and say her hands are cold (they are, as is the tip of her nose so she couldn't even put her face in the crook of their shoulder). She'd suggest to hide under the covers and cuddle... just to help with the cold. Obviously.

Dione grabs MC's hands and warm them with hers. She mumbles and rolls her eyes, but she'd give MC her scarf and keep her arm around their waist. If they're outside she'd rush home, if not she'd light up a small fire. She's probably the most efficient one of the ROs.

Perceval wraps his wings around MC, counting on the fluffy feathers to warm them up. They run hot and would naturally make sure MC can benefit of their body warmth. Xe just enjoy the contact and soft moment.

Crescent is a whore barely ever wears warm covering clothes and they'd laugh and apologizes for not being able to give MC a coat or large sweater. They'd keep MC close and just go on about their activities, silently enjoying the intimacy and rubbing their back, hoping they're getting warmer.

Thank your for the ask <3

How would the ROs react to a very expressive MC that emotes A LOT with their wings? (in a sort of “talking with their hands” kind of way/happy stimming)

The image of MC swinging their wings around is both cute and hilarious to me idk why 😭 I can see some MCs accidentally hitting someone in the face while being really excited--

Xander: He doesn't have much control over his wings, especially now they're burned up. He would feel a bit disjointed at first to see MC being so comfortable with this part of them while he struggles so much, but he is glad they are. He might reach out to their wings while he's distracted, lightly ruffling the feathers to calm himself.

Charlotte: They think it's cool and is always a bit fascinated by how they move. They try very hard to focus on what MC is saying or doing beside it, though. Also, it's fun because Charlotte often talks with their hands or like tap them together or on surfaces, so they're a bit happy it's a shared trait with MC, somewhat.

Dione: I don't think Dione would react much, in fact. She would notice obivously, but to her it's nothing but a proof that MC is less "rigid" than she is. Dione is always very in control, unmoving like a statue. Maybe it would soothe her to see MC use their wings in a relaxing way.

Perceval: Xe enjoy watching MC's wings flutter and move around, but xe's would also be conscious of how maximalist and cluttered their office is. With each movement papers fly around and trinkets tilt dangerously towards the ground. Xe'd clean up a bit to make sure MC doesn't feel bad if something accidentally fall over.

Crescent: Crescent can't help the smile widening over their lips while they listen to MC talking and the way their wings respond to their feelings. Their eyes follow up and down and when MC calls them out for being distracted, they just laugh and apologise, but they still snicker inwardly about how cute it is.

Thank you for the ask :) <3

how would the ros react to finding an artist mcs sketchbook and seeing drawings of them in it? uwu

Crushing stage pining? Crushing stage pining <3

Xander slams the sketchbook shut when he sees the first drawing of him. He tries to convince himself it doesn't mean anything. After all, MC must draw a bit of everything, right? And they see each other a lot. Makes perfect sense. Totally.

Charlotte blushes furiously and tries to resist the temptation to look further. But it tugs at her brain for days after. She keeps thinking about each details of the drawing, and wonders if that's how MC see them. She can't look them in the eye for a little while— or she gets too flustered.

Dione hesitates for once. She really wants to look through the pages and find more drawings of her. At the same time, it feels a bit privacy-breaking. Such a conflict. She huffs with annoyance. Pesky morals. Ultimately, she puts back the sketchbook where she found it, but she makes sly, subtle comments about MC needing a muse for the following weeks. She wants to see if MC is gonna fess up.

Perceval can't help but smile so hard his face hurts. He loves art, but his own skills suck, so he's really admirative. And really, really flustered as well. He has been a muse to some people during his long life, but it never made him feel like MC does. He'd be more conscious of his appearance, worrying about whether or not MC will find it beautiful enough to draw.

Crescent just found either something to subtly tease MC and they're a menace. They'll never straight up admit they've seen it, and if somehow they do, you'll never know how much they've seen (the answer is all of it). Crescent is enamored by it though, despite the probing and teasing. It's all just a way to deflect and not linger on the butterflies and feelings swirling in their stomach. Just their regular facade.

Thank you for your ask 🩷

Continuation of Mc forgetting goodbye kiss for Xander and Dione-- what if a frantic Mc bursts in a minute later like "I ALMOST FORGOT" and gives them a big ol' smooch 💋 (and something more later to make up for it 😏)

Xander and Dione, my little emotionally restricted darlings 🥹

Xander's knees would suddenly feel weak, but he'd sweep MC off their feet and kiss them deeper. He'd let them down after, feeling a bit embarrassed by how he thought so quickly they'd forget. He'd hide his face in MC's neck and breathe in their scent, twisting his arms around them to keep them close.

"... Wanna go to the bedroom?"

"God yes."

Work is immediately forgotten.

~~

Dione smiles victoriously, but she doesn't let show more. She opens her arms to welcome MC and laughs a little when they press their lips to hers.

"Mmh, that's better now, isn't it?" she whispers, tucking back a strand of hair that fell over her face.

"I can make it even better," MC smiles as they press another peck on her lips.

Dione laughs again, a bit less restrained than the first time, and she intertwines her fingers with theirs to drag them down on the silk sheets. MC still has to apologize for the late kiss, after all.

How would ROs in relationship stage react if they were talking about something random with the MC but the MC is in a playful mood so they keep interrupting the RO by constantly smooching them on the lips? 💕💕

ooh a lil mischievous MC? 👀

Xander would give up so fast. That boy is a simp, if MC's kissing him then he's he kissing back. Oh, whatever he had to say? It's nothing. Nothing at all. The world could be burning for all he cares, he only feels the warmth of MC's lips on his own.

Charlotte gets flustered and tries to get her words out, but they get lost in a mess of stuttered syllabs and little surprised moans and giggles. There is no chance of ever finishing this conversation. MC: 1, Charlotte: 0

Dione indulges in the kissing for a short while, then shoves her hand on MC's mouth to finish what she was saying, acting as if nothing happened in between. After that, she'll tell MC to "get their ass here" while patting the bed because she intends to show them how to listen.

Perceval laughs in the kiss, and his hand cups MC's face softly. He keeps what he wanted to say in a corner of his mind, because this is so nice and MC is so sweet and-- Yeah, he probably forgets what he wanted to say after a while. Or rather, he discards it because it is not that important compared to his lover in his arms.

Crescent finds it amusing and tries to keep talking and sabotage MC's attempts at… well, sabotaging. They'd tickle MC's sides, pin them down the couch or bed, and kiss them more passionately to steal their breath away— before leaning back up with red, swollen lips and grinning with triumph as they finish talking, while MC is dazed and panting.
