#shivering

[cleverreports]

We report in the kind of weather that is not demonstrably cold, but that is felt to be cold because of our state of tiredness. The sun is not yet where we think it should be, and we are not where we ought to be anymore (fast asleep, in our bed). We must do with the disconnect.

Shivers

A micro story about cuddles.

You stealthily pulled back the covers with near surgical precision in an attempt to sneak into bed without waking Timothée after taking the new pup out for a potty break. This was Timmy's first night at home in what felt like ages since Marty Supreme promo began. He never said so, never complained, but the purple shadows hanging under his usually bright eyes betrayed his exhaustion.

Just like the chill you caught outside betrayed you.

You managed to slip under the blankets without jostling the bed frame, but soon you were overcome by violent shivers that shook the bed. The harder you tried to stay still, the more you trembled.

"You k?" Timothée slurred sleepily.

"Dammit," you cursed under your breath. "Sorry for waking you, love. I took the puppy outside and I'm just having a little trouble getting warmed back up."

Without a word, he pulled your body into his, hand resting in the valley between your hip and your ribs. The warm air from his happy, contented sigh breezed across your ear, sending another round of shivers down your spine.

hanma who towers over you playfully, and when you look up you expect him to be wearing that playful smirk of his but instead there’s a smile. a genuine, beautiful smile and he’s wearing a comfortable T-shirt and shorts, glasses sitting prettily on his nose and hair messy and still damp. your heart flutters and you have to put a hand on his chest before inhaling deeply.

“would you stop that?”

“stop what?” even his tone isn’t playful, and you think you’re losing your mind with how hot your face feels.

“this! why are you—good god you’re beautiful.”

he leans down just enough to whisper against your ear. “that’s my line, doll.”

The subtle lower jaw trembling and lip-quiver of a character beginning to shiver uncontrollably but still able to suppress the larger full-body quaking by tensing their muscles and to keep their teeth from outright chattering by clenching their jaw- for now.

How cute is shivering especially from illness like wdym your body is trying to regulate its temperature so it’s just gonna shake uncontrollably

something i don’t see much of and want to see more of is the sounds of audibly shivering/being cold

it might be neglected because it’s harder to convey in writing without sounding kinda goofy, but i’m always a fan when something conveys sounds like:

the clatter of chattering teeth.

those short breathy bursts when someone gets a chill and shudders.

the little waver in someone’s voice as they battle the deep shivers in their core.

the rustle of fabric as someone tries to chafe warmth into chilled bones.

pls add more if you have any bc i just really like these details
