i feel ur pain. may i perchance request cuddles with tk. maybe <-not good at this
Timekeeper x Reader Cuddling HCs
AAAA thank you sm for the request I,, Love Them <<333
Went with headcanons bc that’s what I was in the mood to write but if you wanted smthn else feel free to send another request :) !!
(Okay so I headcanon that they’re,, literally Just the computer (and maybe, to a lesser extent, the desk that the computer sits on), no other physical form by the time the Player meets them- but who doesn’t want to cuddle an old computer ??)
They’re touch starved and don’t even KNOW IT - its been so long since they were Employee 432, any memories they might’ve had of physical touch are long faded, they don’t even know that they’re missing out on anything. But when you start visiting them, cleaning the dust from their monitor and tapping on their keyboard, they can’t believe they ever lived without you <33
But that doesn’t mean that cuddling comes easy-
Even if you’re the one to suggest it, they’re a little nervous at first. They’ll ask if you’re sure, then make you a slider asking how sure you are on a scale of unsure to sure, then they’ll ask if you’re sure you’re sure-
They just don’t want you to be uncomfortable !! They might not remember a lot about humans but they’re certain that most of them like to cuddle with soft things, not hard plastic. It takes a few minutes, but as soon as they’re convinced that you really want to do this they’re very excited <3
They have a lot of sleep related questions before you get started. It starts out as a short survey, but they get carried away pretty quickly - they ask about your sleeping habits, bedtime routines, dreams, anything they can think of for almost an hour before they remember you’re supposed to be cuddling. It’s very easy for them to get caught up in the thrill of data collection,,,
It takes a bit of trial and error to find a position that works. You try climbing up on the desk to curl around them, but there isn’t much room- they suggest moving to the floor, but their cord doesn’t reach <//3
In the end you find that the optimal cuddling position is when you sit on a chair in front of their desk and wrap your arms around them, pressing your face to their screen <33 their fans get sooo loud when they realize how much they love being so close to you,,
They especially love when you idly trace your fingertips over their plastic casing, feeling along the scratches and dents. They can tell you aren’t judging their slightly worn edges, and it makes them feel like you really want to memorize their appearance, to know everything about them the same way they want to know everything about you
It’s a surprisingly pleasant experience- you might not think that hugging a computer would be very comfortable, but their plastic is warm and the hum of their inner workings makes for lovely background noise <3
Every once in a while they’ll put a slider up on their screen, asking you if you’re still comfortable, if you’re as happy as they are - or sometimes just random questions that they think of, like your favorite holiday or if you like mammals or amphibians more (“Would you still love me if I was a worm? Yes/No”)
Even when they run out of things to say they’ll occasionally type out a little :-) or <3 to let you know they’re enjoying themself
This isn’t related to cuddling but I headcanon that if you show them new emoticons they jump at every opportunity to use them - they LOVE things like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
I also hc that they’re a huuge gossip, and cuddling sessions are one of their favorite times to share juicy information with you - they’ll talk about fights between Stanley and The Narrator, or how The Adventure Line™ crashed into an ending it™ wasn’t supposed to
They try not to show it but they’re very reluctant to part from you when you need to leave - they’ll try to keep you close a bit longer by making up a few sliders asking if you enjoyed yourself, how much you enjoyed yourself, how likely you are to come back for more cuddles later, etc. They only relax when you assure them that you’re going to come back soon - you might have created a bit of a monster here,,,
Ahem- may I request hcs for Narrator (tsp) x also Narrator Reader in their own story, I think it will be kind of funny when Reader and he complains with each other about their protagonists.

ᯓᡣ𐭩 The collide between two versions of the game through file glitching wasn't necessarily a new situation for Narrator to find himself in, but he was surprised when this one yielded a new side effect— another storyteller
ᯓᡣ𐭩 Once finding out your name, Narrator was all content to just reset this run and fix the issue. But he quickly found out that the bug ran deeper than expected, as you were still there
ᯓᡣ𐭩 At first Narrator had to put the story on hold. He was admittedly a little annoyed, but he did his best to try and find the route of the issue. Once he seemingly stepped out, you tried to make a story for Stanley yourself. It was rather nice, as the protagonist seemed grateful to have a new voice to follow, until the original came back
ᯓᡣ𐭩 Technically, you countered, YOU were more befitting the title of "original" since you came from an earlier development than the current voice. Which quickly spurred an argument, Narrator's pride refusing to take a backseat as he bickered over the logistics with you
ᯓᡣ𐭩 The two of you ended up accidentally putting Stanley at the center of things, both of you getting back at one another by driving Stanley in your own directions, being smug when he picked your respective demands over the others'
ᯓᡣ𐭩 At some point, Stanley noted in sign how you two were remarkably similar despite your differences, especially in things like attitude and will. Which, of course, you and Narrator both denied vehemently
ᯓᡣ𐭩 The more you two talked to each other, the more Stanley began sensing something. There was admiration in the jealousy, pride in the competition, and familiarity in the wit. He began noting with suspicion how for two narrators that claimed to be at odds, you occasionally made the other better by bouncing off of one another's minds Narrator would sometimes even stand up for your ideas if Stanley disregarded them, but then immediately backtrack into teasing or snark.
ᯓᡣ𐭩 He was resigned to the fact that you two would take longer to notice your own feelings, so he did his best to act as usual as normal. Going off on his own path, picking to be defiant, everything Narrator was used to. It was going to be a long one, but in a limitless Parable, there's nothing but time to spare.
HIII!!! I WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE U WRITE FOR THE TSP!! I THOUGHT I WOULD THROW A REQUEST IN HERE BECUZ YKNOW :3 tsp on the brain right now.
may i possibly request a reader who's vv touchstarved but too shy to actually admit they want affection??? romantic w/ the narrator and stanley (separate) please!
i think this is my first headcanon thingy for tsp so i hope it’s okay 😭
— at first, stanley might not even notice that his significant other wants affection. he tends to be very focused on his work and routine, and might not pick up on the subtle hints you give him. however, once he does realize what's going on, he would try to be more attentive and affectionate towards you! he might start small, with things like holding hands or giving you a quick kiss on the cheek, just so it’s not too awkward.
he might also try to encourage his partner to open up more, without being too forceful. he might suggest things like going on a date or taking a walk together, in order to create a more relaxed and intimate atmosphere for the two of you.
overall, be would want to make sure that you feel loved and appreciated, even if you’re too shy to ask for it directly. he knows what it feels like to not be heard, and he never wants you to feel that way towards him!!
The Narrator would probably pick up on your desire for affection right away, thanks to his keen attention to detail and ability to read people.
he would try to be understanding and patient with you, recognizing that shyness can be difficult to overcome. he might tease you for it sometimes, but he’s just trying to be playful!
maybe he would also use his storytelling skills to create a more romantic atmosphere, perhaps by reading you a love poem or telling you a story idk.. he just has that specific kind of voice that you wouldn’t mind listening to, no matter what he’s saying
however, i feel like he might struggle with wanting to be in control of the situation. he might try to push you to be more open or affectionate, which could backfire and make you feel even more uncomfortable.. 😭
ultimately, the narrator would want to find a way to help you feel comfortable expressing your desires, while also respecting your boundaries and wishes, even if it takes some trial and error.
have you ever written general dating/nsfw hcs for the narrator from the stanley parable…??? if you haven’t…cough em’ up bc i need him SO badly. /j
okay more tsp 🤭 for being a literal voice, he’s so adorable
i didnt add any nsfw to this (sorry!!!!!) but you can request nsfw headcanons separately if you’d like :)
— one of the best things about dating the narrator would be his ability to create romantic and memorable experiences! he might surprise you with a romantic picnic in the park, or take you on a spontaneous road trip to see the stars! and he can be such a hopeless romantic, writing love letters for you and using big fancy words to tell you how much he loves you.
however, i feel like he could also be unpredictable and moody. he might suddenly switch from being charming and romantic to distant and aloof, leaving you wondering what you did wrong 😭,, he’s just a bit of a drama queen and he’ll be over it in fifteen minutes anyways
you would have to be comfortable with being in the spotlight, as the narrator can be quite theatrical and he just loves to perform. he might recite poetry to you in public, or make grand gestures that draw attention from those around you.
he can also be quite controlling at times,,, as he likes to be in charge of the situation. this can usually be both exhilarating and frustrating, as you might feel like you are being led on a journey without knowing where it will end up.
and i feel like he can also be quite intense at times, and might struggle with expressing his emotions in a healthy way. he might become jealous or possessive quite easily, and could have a tendency to overanalyze and overthink situations.
despite these potential issues, the narrator would always try to be honest and upfront with you about his feelings. He would see communication as a key component of any healthy relationship, and would encourage you to be open and honest with him as well!!
he would be an excellent listener, and would always be there to offer support and advice when you need it. he would be able to see things from your perspective and would try to understand your feelings and motivations.
i feel like he would be super attentive to your needs and desires, and would go out of his way to make you feel special and appreciated! this could include things like giving you your favorite snacks, surprising you with thoughtful gifts, or taking you on extravagant dates!
overall though, dating the narrator would be a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences. you would have to be prepared for the unexpected, and be willing to take a chance on someone who isn’t like anyone else you have ever met. it would be a complex and challenging experience, but one that would be filled with love, passion, and commitment! he would always keep you on your toes, and would never let things become dull or routine.
no one asked but i cant stop thinking about how the narrator is such a helpless romantic..
i mean it's obvious that he loves to write. just imagine all the poetic love letters he leaves scattered around, "hidden" for you to find. all the short stories you find in his journals where the main characters always end up falling in love.. you can't help but notice how the protagonists are always so painfully similar to you. from appearance, to personality, to the very situation you've found yourself in.
he's never been good with expressing his feelings, especially when it comes to being vulnerable, so that's honestly the closest you would get to an actual confession until you decide to make the first move.
i'll likely stop taking requests from south park for a little bit so please check my pinned post (or the tags) for the fandoms i will take requests for!
also if ur too lazy to check my pinned, i'm doing character x character too,, not just x reader stuff 😏
Hi!! Could you write about how the narrator would help a cold reader? :3
Did you send this ask to Soup, as well? There's one on his blog that's pretty similar to this one. In any case, I'll try to make it a lot different than his. also u seem very cold, plspls get under your blanket with some warm drink and consume narrator content
__________________________________________
This 100% depends on how much he knows you tbh
If he doesn't know you a lot he lowkey makes fun of you
"How are you cold? This is the perfect ambient temperature for many humans."
Meanwhile it's like 10 degrees Fahrenheit there
But let's assume he knows and likes you a lot
The Narrator gently places his hand on yours. Your fingers are absolutely frigid.
"Well, this simply won't do," he says. "Come here, Listener."
With a wave of his other hand, he spawns in a heated blanket calibrated to your needs precisely. With another wave, the two of you are in the Zen Room. The floor is soft and squishy. It's almost like a giant bed
He gently encourages you to lay down. He puts the blanket on top of you, smiling a private little smile when he sees the goosebumps start to fade.
"Fall asleep if you wish," he says. "I'll be here when you wake up."
