#stano x reader

[narrators-journal]

I always feel like somebody's watching me

This is a bit of a mess, but I hope it’s still a fun lil read. I don’t have much else to say, tbh. Just, enjoy some yandere-energy stano/stan content lol.

CW: Implied stalking and implied yandere behavior, that’s about it so far unless I missed something.

Energy drinks for the week, vitamins, tv dinners. I should be good to go for a while, at least. You mused as you looked over the stacks of Banquet brand microwavable meals and packs of energy drinks that you’d horde for your work week. Though, was it a healthy diet? Not really, and you were aware of that.

However, when someone spent nearly twelve hours a day six days a week hunched over a desk or with your eyes glued to a whiteboard, the last thing they would want to do when finally at home was cook and fuss over nutrition. Which was exactly what you felt about the idea, and that was why you stood in the frozen meal section of the grocery store that Friday. Now all I should need is some sandwich stuff, then I can go home and nap. You thought to yourself with a triumphant smile on your face.

Though, you stopped and turned around when you heard a familiar gentle drawl mixed in with the grocery store’s christmas music. “Hey! Aren’t you Xee’s old classmate?” Stanley Snyder was the source, of course. It was hard for you to not instantly recognize the tall man.

Back in your college days, you’d roomed with Xeno Wingfield to save on tuition costs and, as a result, met the silver-haired pretty boy he’d been friends with since childhood. And, while it had only been a handful of times when he got a day or two off from bootcamp, it was fairly rare for you to come across a 5’9 man with snow-colored hair, black-painted lips, and immaculate eyeliner in the frozen food aisle. “Xeno wingfield? Pompous ass who keeps dismembered frog parts in the fridge? If so, then yeah, and I take it you’re Stanley, right?” You asked with a small smile as the man approached. Which, let you drink in the changes he’d gone through in the years between meetings, like how his muscles now stretched the sleeves of his plain t-shirt, the silver dog tags that he now sported, and the twinkle of something new in his icy eyes. “Yeah, that’s him, and yep, that’s me. How’ve you been, darlin’?” He asked casually, only for your old roommate to appear from one of the aisles behind him.

Unlike Stanley Snyder, Xeno Houston Wingfield had almost not changed at all between college and now. His own pale hair was still kept back in a pompadour, and his eyes were still bottomless pits of cold that could only be matched by the depths of space itself. He still wore a long black coat over constant formalwear, and when he looked over to where you chatted with Stanley, he still oozed an aura of evil genius. “Hello again,” He offered with a simple nod to you, but left you no room to respond to either him or Stan, “Why are you talking to them? I turn my back for five seconds, and you bolted off.” He accused his old friend. “Oh, um, sorry-” Stan cut you off nonchalantly, unbothered by the scientist’s hostility-laced tone. “Relax, Xee, I’m just making conversation. We’d barely said hello, it’s not like we’re swapping humiliatin’ stories.” Before the duo swapped expressions and huffs in some telepathic conversation. What the fuck are these two on… “Oh, shit, um...y’know, I should actually go.” You said, which earned you the center of attention once more. “I-I have frozen food in my cart, I need to get home before it melts and go bad, y’know? So sorry if that’s abrupt, I almost forgot.” And you two still give me the creeps. “Ah, right, my bad. I forgot you just got off of work, I shouldn’t keep you.” Stanley hummed, and you just did your best to nod and hurry off to the cash register before your face visibly paled in fear.

The last thing you heard was Xeno’s bitter hiss of, “Why would you say that?! They didn’t need to know you know that.” As unconcerned with what you heard as he was back in college. Though, this time, you weren’t simply cursed with whatever the barely ethical experiment of the week was.

Hello there! I have a request for a Dr. Stone reader insert if you are willing! A Stan/Xeno/Reader one shot where they find out the reader struggles with self-harm? Please and thank you!

Okay, so! Right off the bat, I’m gonna say that if you are going through suicidal ideation and want to harm yourself PLEASE reach out and get some help. Trust me, I’m well aware of the dark spot you are in if you’re contemplating self harm, it’s not fun. Please don’t let the evil voices telling you that nobody would care if you left, win. Life is hard, but it’s very rewarding too, and there is no way that you have not impacted at least one person who would miss you. If you feel like you’re going to self harm at all, please please please reach out to someone. This is all fun and games, but this is still a very serious topic and I am begging you to stay strong and not go through with anything.

That being said, I am very rusty with these two, so forgive me if they seem out of character or needlessly mean at any point, I tried to keep the tone a bit lighter here. I hope this is a wholesome read, and I hope that anyone who reads it who needs help will get it.

CW: discussion of self-harm. Read with caution,

STANLEY SNYDER

Stan doesn’t come off like he’d care. He’s very blunt and matter-of-fact, and Xeno may have at some point traded Stanley’s emotional expression for the hard-working loyalty he has.

That being said, when it comes to self-harm, he’s pretty sweet about it. In his own way.

He wouldn’t outright acknowledge it, say anything, or really even ask about it. Stan doesn’t strike me as the type to outright speak about personal issues.

Instead, he’d simply glance at your wrists, make sure to feed you, give you water, let you vent to him if you decided to, and would basically sniff out when you’re in a dark place and pick you up for an outing or conversation so that you aren’t all alone and at risk of harm.

Stanley might also bit by bit hide dangerous items from you. Again, without any real comment, you could probably go weeks or months before you realize all of the small ways that Stan has done his best to help or keep you safe.

While he’s not a very emotionally chatty man, you can sure bet that if you’ve got nefarious plans, Stan will know. And he will intervene.

XENO HOUSTON WINGFIELD

Xeno is a lot like his best friend. He’s not the type to fret and worry over someone if they’re self-harming. He’d at most call you a dumbass for an attempt tbh.

Again, though, that’s not a sign that he doesn’t care. If you’re his friend, he cares about you a lot, he’s just an ass about it.

If Xeno found out you were self-harming, he’d randomly bring up the most painful, gruesome details about self-harm to dissuade you. Like the slow, painful way you’d die if you overdosed, how drug store ibuprofen is purposely made to not kill someone if they try, the pain that would come from cutting, or the challenge that is getting a noose to work right so you die instantly rather than slowly suffocating.

It’s a very morbid method of help, a very cold and cruel one, you could say, but I think it’s appropriate for a man who has very sparse ethics.

He would also find a way to resuscitate you if you did try. He would do that out of sheer spite because fuck you, you’re not escaping him that easily.

Xeno also might develop a bit of a dark sense of humor about it. Like asking if he could dissect you if you succeed, or saying he’d turn you into Frankenstein.

STANO

As a pair, these two would basically just help one another to help you.

Stan would take on a more emotionally caring role compared to Xeno, and Xeno would dissuade you and hide items from you.

Stan would still be the primary listener for the problems, he’d just report those problems back to Xeno too.

If it really is looking to be a very bad time, they’d effectively take turns talking to, distracting, and basically guarding you. They will hospitalize you if it’s necessary. Your opinion on the mental ward is of little importance.

Xeno would relish ripping apart anyone who may upset you or bully you. Verbally or literally.

In general, these two would just work together scarily well to lower your opportunities for self-harm. Granted, Xeno or both realize that a person dead set on something will find a way, but if you don’t have the alone time to get creative, you can’t do that.

bless u for doing the xenostan x reader poly living headcanons for that person. i really can only imagine them as a set so this was so beautiful to read. may i get some hcs on how theyd go about asking out or seducing someone?

Despite what’s going on with my cat, I don’t feel right just begging and vanishing, so I decided to knock this out real simple for now. I hope these are fun, and I hope you continue to enjoy my goofy ass thoughts on Stano!

STAN

When it comes to seducing someone, or asking someone out, Stan’s pretty organized about it.

He’s a military man, and he will treat it like a military operation lol

He’ll learn all he can about your interests, your perfect date, anything like that.

Of course, this isn’t some creepy shit, if he feels you two won’t mesh, he won’t try to date you. But if he takes you out, he wants it to be as nice as possible. So, he’s thorough.

Plus, looking into potential partners like this saves him some time and money, since he can usually gauge whether or not you two would mesh or have fun.

XENO

Xeno simply isn’t someone who dates much. He’s a bit of a workaholic I’d imagine.

That’s not to say he doesn’t have the desire to date, he simply lacks the silver tongued skill Stan has.

So, if Xeno asks you out or tries to seduce you, it will be blunt.

Of course, with how analytical he is, like Stan, it will be well researched. If he asks you out, it’ll be blunt, but he’ll mean that shit.

Just...don’t expect a lot of smooth talk and charm about it. He’s not Stan, he will probably talk a lot about unethical sciences over dinner.

STANO

As a pair, you are doomed.

They come together to be well-informed on your interests and tastes, and Stan is there to balance out Xeno’s caveman-esque techniques.

You’ve got Stan’s charm and humor, paired with Xeno’s intellegence and intrigue.

Xeno will probably keep you on your toes with his attitude, his conversation topics, and his slightly scary morals. Stan is there to charm and soften his best friend and provide more accessible humor.

So, in short, if they set their sights on you, and deem you datable, they’ve got a high ass chance of succeeding at that shit.
