Hello! I'm not sure if you still write for her but, if so, may I request vantage w/a reader who has sensitive thighs but doesn't like to have them covered headcanons? Some risky, some not if you can!
Hello! It’s been like forever since I written something! And of course I still write for vantage, She’s my favorite and my main so I really can’t stop loving her <3
I love the request it’s so interesting. Thank you Anon for the wonderful Vantage request since nobody writes for her </3 you didn’t specify if she was a legend or not so I’m going to write two versions. Update I’m so sorry this probably sucks— but if you wish to send something different I would absolutely do it!

I’m bad with English since it’s not my first language but I tried my best, bad grammar, no pronouns used, kinda spicy in the end…
Vantage x sensitive thighs! Reader
You two finally had a match together, it was a duo match, Vantage was laying down looking out prey as she spotted you.
She knew you from your unique outfits, she didn’t know the names of the style since she didn’t really care but she found them rather interesting (mostly because if you where out in the wild you wouldn’t survive with such outfits)
Half of them usually had holes between your thighs or were simply shorts… but today you had a completely different look, and surprisingly it had pants.
The games had a new theme which was mystery, and you were the lucky one to have a new outfit! Unlucky for you it had pants… you had to wear them for at least a day or two.
As you were looting, you saw the small light besides you and looked behind you, seeing the sniper looking directly at you
“Vantage” as she hears her name, Vantage lets her sniper down “y/n” you two smile at each other and she quickly makes her way toward you.
You explain why you look uncomfortable or awkward and she simply asks why they hurt, which you explain your own reason why they hurt.
When the games end and she has to go back to her room she tries to find some book that help her figure it out. Vantage is a hunter, if she does get hurt she’s probably not even going to find it amusing and patch it up (pretty sure her pain tolerance is high af)
Vantage stood up just researching how to help you and out of nowhere you have a Vantage ready to help (she’s trying!)
She’s new to relationships and honestly she would be so clumsy and would probably act like she always does but if she had someone so special that is willing to be with her and fight with her she would probably do this things for them!!
Anyway evil time
Vantage once was on your room and she wanted to show you something, her hand gently rubbing against your thigh and you let out a small gasp that made her go like “:0”
Ever since, she touches you here and there just to hear that gasp or whatever noise you make that day.
There was this time she was teasing you during a match, you two where hiding and she was just rubbing her hands between your thighs, making you cover your mouth and look away, one noise and you two where lootboxes.
Guys I was doing research abt Vantage and her personality and I found out SHES STINKY— like hear this out “Vantage has incredibly poor hygiene, stating that she does not bathe or wash her clothes” STINKY LOVER STINKY LOVE
hii i just saw the rdr2 matchups you did and i love them AND HOLY SHIT APEX FAN‼️‼️ i love how detailed you are!! love your writing!! so if ur not too overwhelmed with requests id like to make one :3 and honestly if ur doing matchups for apex id love that too there's so little apex ffs, especially x reader </3 no pressure tho!!
anyways as for me. uhh. i don't use labels (aside from being asexual) but am pretty masculine in gender, and my love is for any gender. my pronouns are he/him :3
more about me,, im vegetarian, my favorite animal is the octopus, im chronically ill & disabled, which means i have chronic pain and have pretty bad sleep (literally writing this at 10 am after not being able to sleep all night) but despite that i have a weird paradox where i am kinda strong? like i can pick ppl up. but can't have much activity for a long time lest i cast spell 200 bpm on myself. but for the sake of the ff i could totally bench press arthur morgans 180lb of pure muscle. its true <3
in apex i main wattson and bloodhound! but i also like crypto, octane ofc (who doesn't), loba, and... im sorry.. wraith 😭 i got wattsons heirloom after. a very long time of opening packs AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH no regrets!! french girl with giant nessie plush!!!!! tho i haven't played in forever (and honestly may keep it that way with how much they're nerfing bloodhound.. like.. c'mon man.. not my main.. they've already been nerfed so much 😭)
i recently started playing rdr2 cause im visiting family that has it (theres actually been a lot of funny stories being on an unfamiliar console, like playing 22+ hours and reaching chap 2 without knowing how to save.. and i didnt know how to tell arthurs weight so i kept him underweight for so long my poor starving man </3) after playing rdr1 quite a bit. i also vibed with john hard in 1 but i lowkey thought he was an angsty young adult in rdr2 and not a FATHER. my favs are arthur and javier tho i can barely see the latter cause where tf is he on the map?? same with charles where IS HE??? but anyways i also vibe so hard with kieran.
tho i could talk forever about my interests, other than that for personality: id describe myself as actually kinda confident around strangers, i love to compliment ppl i come across. for friends, much of the same, i like using improv as humor if that makes sense, ive been told im easy to talk to, i consider myself intuitive (also contributed to me being a tarot reader i believe), but i am the type to have a veeerryy hard time expressing negative feelings im having, and never crying in front of people, so no shortage of bottling emotions. im also rather rigid on cleanliness and WILL start tweaking if me/my space goes too long w/o cleaning. i really, really care about people (i would want to be a paramedic!! if my body could allow it..) and i so want to make peoples lives better!! but also can rather easily stop people from walking over me, should they try. i care about kids a lot, and get very peeved when other ppl dont know how kids brains work and mistreat them because of such, and cause they just have no respect for children. honestly with thinking like.. about formulating matchmaking requests i never really seem to think about what id want out of a person. honestly, just when someone cares (wow, such high standards) but should the time come, mmmost times im not afraid to make a selfish ask. most. maybe. sometimes. and im very, very empathetic and it SUCKS i take psychic damage every time someone even remotely, even HYPOTHETICALLY feels bad. this is not a virtue.
for hobbies, i like to play video games as you may have guessed, i also like to read (non fiction, classic lit and danmeis especially), make art of all kinds but mainly physical sketches, and im always looking to add more shows/movies to my watched list.
i love to visit restaurants and cafes and interesting places surrounding food!!! my idea of a good time is eating with people, even if its in a crappy chuck e cheese. i love to try new foods (but it's a bit hard since becoming vegetarian), and i love matcha! i also love visiting just interesting places in general. why go to disney when you can see a beautiful spot in nature, or an art exhibit, or a park, or just the lively downtown? but other than that, i love my dedicated space 💗
i dont like rude people. mean people. people mean to kids and animals. bigots. assholes. any synonym for that. but honestly, not much else. there are other things that sure tick me off but can be pretty easily taken care of or compromised for.
i hope i didnt write a damn essay. half of it was geeking out over interests but. im guessing the brainrot is shared. but thank you so much for even reading my request this far!! (*˘︶˘*)
hii! sure thing! i love doing matchups especially when you guys give me lots of details :)
let's get to it :)
THIS IS NOT PROOFREAD!!! I'M REALLY SORRY FOR ANY MISTAKES!!!
okay, first things first - let me tell you why I didn't choose other characters :)
❝ im chronically ill & disabled, which means i have chronic pain and have pretty bad sleep ❞
Well, I need to be honest with you, I believe that despite your strenght, REVENANT would just make fun of your disability, he would NOT care at all, he'd probably pick on you and be REALLY rude.
I hope it's not offensive (i'm sorry if i'm insensitive, it's not my intention), but I know he'd want to offend you.
You could actually have a good hate-ship (if you know what i mean), where the only thing you guys do is fight with each other but I don't think that's what you want.
❝ im also rather rigid on cleanliness and WILL start tweaking if me/my space goes too long w/o cleaning. ❞
I'm sorry, have you seen OCTANE'S room? Let me remind you of that...
Can you see what is happening on his floor? This guy would probably drive you insane with how messy he is and I know he wouldn't care if you tried to ask him to clean it up...
It would probably lead to many arguments and fights between you :(
❝and im very, very empathetic and it SUCKS i take psychic damage every time someone even remotely, even HYPOTHETICALLY feels bad. this is not a virtue. ❞
I have this feeling that Loba would see you as an easy target to manipulate, she'd think that she could use you after seeing that you feel really bad when someone feels bad, so she'd probably talk about her past a lot around you - trying to make you feel like you need to help her with everything. I doubt that it could work out :(
I hope you see my vision and I'm not weirdly delusional with my ideas.
BUT NOW FOR A RESULT...
(NGL I HAD A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS ONE SINCE YOU SEEM TO BE A GOOD MATCH FOR AT LEAST 2 LEGENDS, BUT I DECIDED TO PICK...)
VANTAGE
I feel like you and Vantage could have a really good relationship! You both seem to aim high with your ideals and I just think that you both are really empathetic, a little bit emotional even...
You share the love for animals. She has her Echo and she'd probably die for him. Vantage would never let any animal be mistreated when she's watching.
" why go to disney when you can see a beautiful spot in nature, or an art exhibit, or a park, or just the lively downtown? " - I think she thinks exactly the same! She seems to be a big fan of nature and she is an explorer. Born on a cold planet where everything wanted to kill her, she knows that nature can both be beautiful and deadly.
She is also really nice, and I think that when she gets closer to someone, she actually CARES, like...A LOT. You'd probably be treated really well.
I think that Vantage would be really patient when it comes to you and expressing your feelings, she'd never let you just walk away if she saw that you were upset, I think that communication and trust is a priority in every relationship.
She'd listen to you when you tell her that you have chronic pain and she'd do exactly the things you ask her to do, always trying her best to help you and she'd make sure you're not pushing yourself too hard.
Lmao so I did it and I will not take any criticism. Vantage supremacy.
Vantage hunts you down. (Literally!)
You had been played for a fool. Or more accurately, you had blissfully ignored the signs.
A gunshot shatters through the silent forest, ripping out a chunk of the earth by your feet. The force makes your desperate pace falter, but you know one slip up is all it takes to be over.
Mara wouldn't hesitate. She'll pull the trigger.
Idiot. You're a fucking idiot! This was the Apex games. No one was harmless. But when she beamed down at you and spoke about the modern world with such curiosity, you couldn't help but adore her. She was young and trying to free her mother via participating in a bloodsport. Who wouldn't take pity on the kid?
A bullet grazes your thigh. You bite by a cry of agony. Apparently, those who were easily bamboozled did.
"Mara can watch out fuh herself, doncha worry." Ajay snorted as you told her about your efforts to help Vantage get comfortable with the games.
"Yeah but–I mean she's so young! She should be idle, without a care in the world, be innocent, or at least naive–you know?" Ajay raised an eyebrow at you, shaking her head.
"Yuh the only one who thinks that. Cuz Mara's got yuh wrapped around her finger." D.O.C. beeped as though to agree. You didn't understand, and at your confused stare Ajay only fixed you with a pitiful look.
"Poor thing. Don't yuh ever notice her starin'? Like she's watchin' a rabbit at the end of her scope. And you's the rabbit."
Back then, you hadn't understood. Now?
You slammed the door shut, fumbling to push some random deathbox in front of it. Frantically, you searched for syringes–nearly crying in relief to find a pack. You winced as you injected yourself with health, feeling the oh-so-expensive serum relieve some pain in your body.
Was she always this...terrifying? You'd only even been on teams with Vantage before, never at the end of her barrel. Ever since you took it upon yourself to help the FNG get comfortable with the games, the public had been obsessed, and the demand to see you two interact was overwhelming.
They loved your caring nature and the "big sister" vibes you gave off where it concerned Mara. You praised her when she managed to mark her "prey" down, backed her up to rush when she felt confident, and offered her supplies whenever you could. Bad fights only got soothing revives from you, and you never left her banner behind.
Your sales had rocketed due to this display, and very quickly fans warmed up to Vantage as well. However, your agent had suggested a match where you guys would be enemies...just to test the waters.
But you doubt she thought it would come to this.
There was a heavy thud. Startled, you jolted, clutching your empty R-301 like it was your lifeline. God, Lifeline. She had been on your team, and things had been going great, that was until...
...a bullet plunges into her skull mid sentence, causing the gruesome image of blood splattering everywhere. There's a beat of frightening terror as Ajay falls to the ground, completely knocked down. Oh my God. Before you can even find the culprit, another shot takes Ajay right out of the game. With only one other squad left, at best, it was 1 v 1 now. But at the worst?
Another shot rings out. Even though you stood still, it didn't find it's mark–but it did make you break into a frantic run–hyper aware that only one person was capable of killing someone in two shots.
Mara–no, Vantage–was hunting you down like prey, and you were running out of places to hide. You swallowed as you peeked out the window, watching Mara dust dirt from her landing with a hum. Her upbeat attitude sent prickles up your spine. Before you'd found it endearing, but now it made your heart pound with dread.
She's enjoying this. Her sharp eyes brightly glanced around, steps perfectly quiet and precise. Mara paused with a tilt in her head, and you held your breath as she spoke.
"I know you're here, y/n. I can smell you." Wait, seriously? That's not just a tidbit she says for the show? She couldn't actually do that, right? Vantage may have been a seasoned hunter, but she was still totally human...right?
"Sweet...reeking with fear. Gosh it almost makes me feel bad. Afraid I'm gonna eat you alive? Don't worry y/n–I don't bite too much." Vantage chuckled to herself, stalking around in search of you.
"You're always so reliable and confident with me, but your panicked face when I "miss" a shot? Precious."
She missed on purpose? You didn't understand why. It looked like she was the last of her squad too, so if she had hit you she would have won. What did Vantage gain from stretching out this game of cat and mouse...
Oh.
"Echo thinks it's hilarious...but I dunno. It's kinda cute."
You couldn't believe what she was saying, face growing bright red. She'd made you run for ages, freaking out when gunshot after gunshot barely missed your form–because she thought you were cute?
She did remember this was broadcast live right? She did remember everyone was watching her do...whatever this was to you right now.
A voice echoed above you both, and you winced. The final ring was going to close soon, and you were out of heat shields. You doubted Vantage didn't have a pair, since you always nagged her to pick them up.
Which meant you'd have to face her head on.
Shit.
"Are you gonna hide in there all day? Didn't take you to be the type to cower. Guess I'll have to uh, what do they call it?" Mara's voice at the other side of the door you'd blocked made you squeak, and you swore she giggled at the sound. It would have been like bells in your ears if not for what she did next.
Bang. Mara kicked the blocked door with a loud crack, and you flinched as the door started to shatter.
Bang. Frantic, you glanced around as she busted her way in, grabbing a thermite grenade and aiming it at her.
Bang. You chucked it once the door finally shattered, sharply turning to run up the stairs. You could hear the sound of her surprise, followed by a chilling, hysterical laugh–and the growl she released as she spoke.
"Smart. I do love a good chase..." The words sent a shiver down your spine. You had never seen Mara like this. Her heartwarming smile was replaced with a smirk, sly as she followed the sound of you panicked footsteps. There was no ammo, no syringes–god this place has been completely cleaned out–and things only grew worse when a voice boomed overheard.
The final ring was closing, and it was going to force you to come back the way you came.
Click.
The sound of her sniper was painfully familiar. You froze, turning slowly to look at Mara. Sure enough, her trademark gun was out, ready to fire, and you were at the end of her scope.
"...Take what's yours? Claim what you want? I dunno, Loba says it I want it, I should have it. Something like that. Just..." You stayed still as Mara walked closer. Her gaze was sharp, demeaning–and somehow you felt stripped bare under it, legs growing weak. The end of her sniper rested against the bottom of your chin, forcing you to look up and keep her gaze.
"It's only natural to hunt down what you're hungry for, right?" Her voice dipped into a husky tone, and you nervously licked your lips, unsure if she meant simple survival instincts or something else.
"Are–uh, Ma-I mean, Vantage–" You stuttered fruitlessly, sucking in a breath when Mara came closer.
"Mhm?" God. Her hum was sweet yet awfully intimidating, making you shiver when calloused hands brushed against your side.
"Why did–you're acting different–I mean just–does, d-does that mean you...uh, to me..." The mess of questions in your head jumbled up into one measly whisper. The sniper grinned, leaning down to let her soft lips brush over your forehead.
"I like you, y/n. You're a little dense, super naive, but all cute, weak prey are. That's what makes chasing them down and marking them so satisfying." As she speaks, you suddenly feel the cool end of a wingman pressed against your skull, and your stomach sinks as Vantage sweetly smiles
"So good luck trying to escape my grasp. I never let go of the things I like."

꒰ Has like two playlists and listens to them on a daily
꒰ Sometimes when she stumbles upon a new song she likes she recommends the song to you
“Oh! I just found this new song and I think you might like it!” Mara hands you her pair of headphones and plops them in your hands. The feeling of the smooth (yet scratched) plastic moving around as you place them over your head to listen. A more upbeat tune, it’s cute.
“I like it.” You give her the headphones back with a small smile. Mara seems pleased with the outcome.
꒰ She’s good at gardening-

Thinking about how if you thank Vantage she sometimes goes "mhm!!" Like your thanks is the best thing ever and she's so happy she could help all she can muster is a sound of joy. Yeah. I'm totally normal about Vantage.
Do you think you would be able to write some fluff with her and gn!reader cuddling on a cold night ? Or just some fluff in general.
TYSM!!! I can definitely do that for you!

Nights in the winter weren’t something you enjoyed. Yes, hot chocolate in front of the fire place and ugly sweaters were fun, but when the heater refuses to work, that’s another story. You lie in bed curled up, hugging your legs to your chest tightly just to feel a bit of warmth. The blanket that used to be messily tossed to the side now engulfing your small, shrunken form. Luckily, you wouldn’t have to worry about this until the morning. Maybe it would be a bit warmer by the time you wake up (if you can ever sleep).
“Shit, it’s so cold…” you mutter out, body starting to shiver. Seems like the blanket isn’t helping much. You thrash around trying to find some sort of comfort, but you fail. Giving up, you finally decide to just sink in to the small corner of the bed. All you could do now is shut your eyes and hope for the cold to melt away.
“Hey… are you ok?” You felt a sudden shift and two hands wrapped around your arm. Big and rough, yet so gentle. Mara stays there waiting for an answer. Right now, all you can think about is the feeling of her arms wrapped around you. Hugging each other tight, bathing in each other’s warmth. Tonight, that’s all you need. You hesitate before parting the blanket open to make room for you to keep warm, but still invite her into the cocoon you had around yourself. Some of the air from the chilly room waves over the exposed skin. But before it hits, Mara crawls into the space and into your arms. She’s warm to the touch, like always.
You embraced her, legs tangled and closer than ever. “You’re just what I need.” You mumble into the fabric of her shirt. Mara gives you a little “hmm” in response. Your heart drums inside your chest, it beats faster every second you spend with her. It’s like you’re in love all over again, and again, and again. A living cycle you never want to get rid of.
As promised some love for the new legend! Vantage HC!!! I love her very much she’s so cute
Ask are open so you can ask more!!
𖠌 Mara would make you a playlist with a bunch of songs she thinks you’ll like or reminded her of you! Such as Leave the Door Open by Mars and Anderson, Talk to you by Ricky Montgomery and Sunflower, Vol. 6 by Harry style
𖠌 She does love hard music! By that I mean Phonky trap by Suave Lee and songs like that
𖠌 She’s someone who can’t do small talks, she’s an awkward girl. So she prefers to stick by your side so she feels more relax and not awkward, you can simply fix her mess!
𖠌 Xiaomara writes a lot, I like to believe she has a special space in her notebook just for you! She writes the most cutest thing ever “y/n spent the night with me! It was the nicest sleep I had in days!” And “today I helped y/n with her sniper skills, we really didn’t spend much that on that but both activities were fun!
𖠌 Going back to what I said, if you do spend the night with Xiaomara, she WILL kiss you in the lips while you’re asleep.
𖠌 Likes cuddling with you and absolutely loves being the small spoon, she like the feeling of being hugged by her lover. She would probably say something like “this feels like home”
𖠌 She won’t mind if you don’t like being the big spoon, she likes both, it’s just that Mara needs that home feeling here and there
𖠌 Let’s say you end up being the small spoon, she MELTS whenever you move your fingers around her scars, she has a lot in her arms and will tell you the stories.
𖠌 Mara and Elliot have a strong “sibling” relationship! Whenever Mara couldn’t figure out the feeling in her chest, she went straight to Witt and asked what was wrong with her. He laughed so hard that day and told her she was in love, she dismissed it but the feeling was stronger every day so one day she confessed her feeling in a match.
𖠌 It was an accident really, there was a bomb and she wanted to protect you. Ended up hurting herself a lot but you were fine so she didn’t mind the damage “anything for you, team partner… that I really like…” she mumbled loudly which you simply couldn’t help but blush “oh? Well I really like you too” you said giving Xiaomara a med kit
𖠌 She had to explain it wasn’t a friendly “I like you” it was a more romantic one.
𖠌 It was a pretty nice day after that
𖠌 Mara is a crafty hunter just like her other legend friend, Bloodhound! She makes you the cutest gift ever, her most recent gift? A bracelet!
𖠌 But by the end of the day, she only wants to go home, be with her home.
