#bill x reader

It was during the summer before your 2nd year of college. You had decided to stay on campus instead of going back home states away and thankfully the school allowed that. Honestly, you were also hoping to get ahead.

So, since you were trying to get ahead, you spent a majority of your time in the library. That's when you found the book- One about interdimensional worlds and the demons that haunt them.

You giggled to yourself, flipping through the book, quickly skipping past the gory stuff. That's when you see a page about a dream demon. What an odd thing. What even is a dream demon? Like Freddy Kruger? Those things aren't even real: Who writes stuff like this? You now view the page a bit more to see multiple symbols from a language you're not to familiar with.

You decide to sit down and examine the page some more. You stupidly figure out what it was and read it out loud like an idiot. That's when everything freezes and suddenly you're face to face with a fucking yellow triangle.

He's just as confused as you. Who the hell are you? He looks down and sees the book and is slightly impressed that you figured out the language.

He tries spiking up a deal with you. You obviously don't take it. He tries to lighten up your rejection with jokes. What you didn't realize was that by saying those words, you have let him into your world and you have to force him out. The problem? You don't know how.

You get real sick of him following you around all the time. He thinks you're just adorable. He is actually enamored with you, which surprises him because he hates human. You're different though.

He tries to get you to like him, but you don't want anything to do with the demon. He's not thrilled about it, but he keeps trying. He actually gives you more chances than anyone else and at first he's not exactly sure why, but he soon realizes that he likes you.

He likes the dynamic between himself and you. You're so fun to talk to and play with. You're just perfect- He's quick to separate from you and you finally breath a sigh of relief. Though don't get used to it, because he realizes he still needs to see you to get his fix, so he's always watching.

He gets jealous very fast and easily; Talking to a professor? Well, watch his head explode and then come back together. It must have been an illusion. Oh, going to study with friends? Car crash; All dead. You for a moment wonder if you're losing your mind with all these terrible things happening to the friends around you.

Bill doesn't want to torment you. It's just not something he enjoys doing to you. He wants you to watch as he torments other people. He wants you to be happy with him. It's such an odd feeling for him, but he doesn't entirely hate it.

👁️ You met this dorito-lookin ass in your dream. It had started like a normal dream, when suddenly everything went dark. You were confused when you were surrounded by darkness; For a second, you thought you had died.

👁️ He accidentally went into the wrong dream, as he had meant to go into the Pines' dreams, but hey, he can't give up an opportunity to fuck with someone.

👁️ You were easy to annoy and he thought that was funny. He's not necessarily out to get you, you're more like a fun toy to him. You find him extremely annoying, but he thinks you're funny

👁️ He becomes rather obsessive with you. He likes having your attention on him and can become jealous when your attention is on something else

👁️ Throws pity tantrums when he thinks you're not paying enough attention to him. Will destroy the world if that's what it takes for you to notice him

👁️ He controls your dreams and you can never be free from him. You were rather annoyed that you had no control or privacy

👁️ Honestly, he just likes you... Like a lot. He thinks you're a lot like Ford and craves what he can't have with Ford

👁️ He'll never hurt you- At least not in the real world. He just hurts you in your dreams. Your so cute when you get mad

👁️ He's inside your mind constantly. He knows everything about you and all your secrets. You can't hide anything from him, even if you wanted too. You'd have to get a metal plate in your brain

👁️ He makes your life a living hell, so you avoid sleeping. He slowly begins to miss you when realizing you're not sleeping.

👁️ You eventually think you're free and that he's moved on, but oh, you were so wrong. It was naive of you to think he hasn't always been there... Watching you

1.) A Howling Void

Bill likes to deny this one but it’s made clear that they did date at one point

2.) Stanford Pines

This one is pretty self explanatory

3.) Bloody Mary

Bill doesn’t explicitly state what sort of relationship he had with her, but his wording & wanting to reconnect suggests they might have been more than friends..?

4.) Your Mom 💀

Bill implies that he both banged the Reader’s Mom and was in love with her. This is most likely just a joke / Bill’s way of toying with the Reader 😂

5.) Jheselbraum the Unswerving (The Oracle)

When Ford met her in Journal 3, she was implied to have a terrible grudge against Bill. However, according to The Book of Bill, she used to at least be one of his Henchmaniacs. It is unclear what caused her to hate him since then. There is not really any solid evidence that she is his ex, but I suppose it is a possibility, so I still felt the need to include it

6.) The Reader?

Honestly, this is probably a reach, so I’m just going to leave this up to interpretation

Those are the most likely EXES I could really find in The Book of Bill (though he does flirt with others). Here’s another pic below just for funsies because it made me laugh

ok so I talked about this in my previous Bill headcanons but he is definitely very odd about aftercare.

i dont think he'd take the initiative for aftercare if you were not in an actual romantic relationship, like he doesn't try very hard for one night stands simply because its just not something he views as "worth it" and also, i don't think he takes sex that seriously outside of a committed relationship anyways. he's a demon, he's got a lot of time on his hands, not every sexual encounter really matters that much to him, resulting in some subpar aftercare experiences if you're just a one night stand.

sex in and of itself is a very unique experience with Bill and i think aftercare is no different, but it presents itself rather oppositionally to the actual sex act. hes very experimental and intense during sex, especially due to the power dynamics in place during intimacy and how sexual relationships based on true connection are kind of rare for him. hes much more used to flings and "no strings attached" sexual relationships, and so to have sex whether in his normal form or a potential human form with a genuine romantic partner can be somewhat disarming at first. i think he compensates heavily for this by being very very tuned in and perceptive during sex because, even though he doesn't want to admit it, is very aware of how important it is, even if not just to himself. this intensity is basically his way of showing that actual sex in an actual relationship is important to him, and not something he wants to handle haphazardly (which is. something he would never admit aloud)

all this being said, the opposite is true for aftercare at first. he's incredibly intense about sex, especially early into the relationship, but when it comes to aftercare, he just. kind of leaves. his idea of aftercare is licking the remaining fluids off your body with his weird eye tongue and calling it a day- he has no knowledge on the concepts of post sex care, let alone subspace or any bdsm dynamics. because of this, i think the first few post sex interactions seem very... clinical? and cold in comparison to the wild unpredictability he exhibits while actually having sex. like you will have just experienced an incredibly intense and emotional session where you both switch positions and are trying a lot of different things, and it can be very vulnerable, and then he will straight up leave once you're all done. his bare minimum is checking to make sure he hasn't hurt you extremely and, again, licking you clean like a freak, but then he just takes off leaving you sputtering.

contrary to popular belief i don't think this response comes from a lack of care but moreso a lack of understanding, which he would never admit. Bill is constantly calculating all possible outcomes of any situation and whether he wants to admit it or not he KNOWS sex is vulnerable both for you and for him, and when placed in a scenario where he now has to express and possibly explain that vulnerability outside of the shield of sex he kind of just tunes out. aftercare is not something he needs, he's veeerrry overconfident and sure of himself (lies) so he assumes you are too.

Bill is also just inexperienced when it comes to aftercare but again, he wouldn't admit he was bad at ANYTHING to save his life so he just pretends it's unimportant. but in reality he just straight up doesn't really know what exactly to do. he made sure you aren't dead, and "cleaned" you up, shouldn't that be enough?

on the opposite spectrum, i think he could also be TOO intense about "aftercare". like he'll start cleaning you or being silly and joking around but it'll just lead to another more casual/lowkey round of sex, which while always appealing can be kind of undermining to the whole aftercare experience. in addition to this, his high energy and sporadic ideas post sex can be stressful, and again, undermine the peaceful coming down from such an intense high

coaxing him into actual aftercare takes a little while, that much is certain. the first time yoh ask him to really truly stay with you (and NOT start doing anything crazy) after sex he brushes you off at first, but begrudgingly agrees when he sees its something seriously important to you. he doesn't really do much but ends up floating beside the bed for 6 hours just watching you sleep, which is his idea of caring. the fact that he stuck around is telling enough that he's willing to try, he just needs guidance. (but you can't admit that it's guidance. because then he will get really stubborn.)

Bill's weird licking routine is probably the best way to introduce the concept of cleaning up, funnily enough. after he's done licking up your remaining juices, its not that hard to convince him to help you clean up the surrounding area. he may be hesitant to actually help at first but at least sticking around to watch you clean up the sheets/surroundings gives him an idea of what most humans do. after that, he becomes much more willing to stick around, and soon just starts snapping his fingers to immediately clean objects for you. he doesn't see the point in making you di the work, he deems it unnecessary, but when you explain that its a part of the process as a whole, thats when it begins to click for him

when it comes to bathing or cleaning yourselves up together, this is probably the first step in whcih Bill is actually enthusiastic about accompanying you. he'll blow bubbles in the bathtub while you clean off, and might even be willing to wash your hair or back for you if you ask veeeery nicely. this does take a little prodding, and to protect his ego he claims its just a one time thing, but he actually likes it more than he wants to admit. again, it all circles back to power dynamics. Bill wants to be in control of the situation and relationship, and caring for you while you're vulnerable can be an expression of his power in and of itself. at least, thats what he tells himself. he's very deep in denial about growing a soft spot for you

as previously stated in my other headcanons Bill is honestly kind of bad at words of affirmation, he'll praise and degrade you during sex but his aftercare or pillow talk will be absolutely absurd. don't expect anything soft or sweet, he's not honest or sappy enough for that. instead he's asking you the most bizarre questions he can think of, or prodding you on deep philosophical questions that you would not be thinking about otherwise, and very occasionally he'll ask your opinion on things he's been thinking on recently or problems that have been bothering him. once again, its his weird way of showing you he cares, and while this only happens after hes comfortable with aftercare as a whole it's deeply appreciated. while not stereotypical pillow talk, he still wants to hear your thoughts, and in vice versa he will yap to you until you eventually fall asleep. if you're very lucky and he's feeling especially soft he might play with your hair or scratch your back or something along those lines, simply because he is very energetic and wants to channel that energy somewhere while he talks.

i also think that further into a relationship with fully developed aftercare he will start being very clingy! i mentioned this in my other set of headcanons but once Bill is over his whole pushing you away self sabotage hurdle he becomes suuuuper touchy and clingy, he goes from 0 to 100 in keeping a firm distance and pretending he doesn't care to literally needing you with him all the time, and this translates to aftercare as well. the more used to routine he gets the clingier he gets, which honestly makes him better at the overall process. its nice to feel loved after sex and having a literal dream demon be practically glued to your side can feel pretty good.

overall, Bill is very hot and cold and theres a lot of nuance to how he would be in more vulnerable relationship scenarios like these. i think he's a total wildcard who's very unpredictable, but can be coaxed into gentleness with enough guidance and patience

"Awh! Sweetheart don't be like that!! I thought it was only fair that I get to have my time with you too" Bill says with a grin

"I don't like when you take over Fords body, I don't want you hurting him" you say as you begin to stand up. You're still naked from the night before and there's some dried cum between your thighs "..don't stare, Bill. It's gross"

"...looks like you and ford had fun" Bill says, his voice is still and it almost sounds like a growl. His eyes never leave you, practically scorching into your body as you head to the bathroom to clean yourself up.

While youre gone Bill begins inspecting the body that hes in. He huffs to himself, what's so impressive about ford anyway. Bill toys and plays with his body "its not like hes got a huge dick or something...I just dont get it" he mumbles to himself before sitting up and grabbing some clothes for himself

He hated having to take over someone else's body just for you to spend time with him. He wanted you to like him, the real him but he was beginning to understand that this was a lost cause. If he could just work out a way to disguise his eyes then he could be with you, forever, and youd be none the wiser, maybe even happier.

You emerge from the bathroom in some shorts and a baggy shirt, your soft thighs are absolutely tantalising to Bill and he can hardly hold himself back. "Jeez..you sure you wanna wear that?" You say with a giggle

He doesn't even look down at himself, just staring at you in awe that youre actually trying to talk to him and joke with him "..what's wrong with it?"

You're a little uncomfortable from all the staring but respond "uh..its just..you do realise how hot it is outside today?" You mumble as you bring up the weather app on your phone "I know demons don't get hot but I don't want you overheating in Fords body" you hand Bill the phone "so maybe don't wear a sweater, and put on some shorts"

Bills eyes light up as you hand him your phone. He immediately clicks off of whatever you were trying to show him and starts scavenging through all of your apps, all of your photos, your whole search history. He couldn't get into your brain so this was the next best thing. Hes searching for anything: likes, dislikes, maybe even a dirty picture if hes lucky?

"Hey!!" You snatch the phone back "you know that isn't very polite" you glare at him and pout. Bill stares at the soft jutting out of your lip.

"Okay..." he pulls his eyes away "so you want me to change?"

You nod, smiling at his compliance "yeah!" You giggle "wow, its surprisingly easy to get a literal demon to listen to you"

Bill suddenly chuckles, looming over you and cupping your face between his hands "oh sweetheart...its not easy, youre just so pretty I cant help but wanna protect you" he leans in to kiss you, eyes fluttering shut

You nearly lean in too but pull away at the last minute "y-youre not ford-!" You mumble, looking away. You feel ashamed and can hardly even bare to look at your boyfriend face, despite the fact that hes currently possessed by a demon.

Bill growls and lurches out of what he likes to call his 'skin suit' and is back to his demon form. Hes so angry, instead of the little yellow triangle hes a massive pyramid with multiple arms and tongues. You're terrified. You run over to Fords limp body and cradle him in your arms

Tears well up in your eyes "I'm sorry bill- I didn't mean to make you mad" you gaze up at him and plead "don't hurt me.."

Bills angry panting slowly cools down and he shifts back into his usual form. He flies down to face you, eye wide and obsessive "..I wasn't gonna hurt you, doll. I am thinking of killing off that stupid boyfriend of yours though" he grumbles

Ford begins to blink awake but Bill snaps his fingers and he suddenly dissappears, evaporating out of your grip "ford!?" You cry out "what did you do with him???"

Bill just laughs and ruffles your hair "jeez, don't worry so much, I just sent him to another dimension so we can have some alone time"

Tears break free from your eyes and you stand up, glaring at Bill "i hate you...you'll never be ford and I'll never love you"

That hit him like a ton of bricks. You would love him. He didnt care what it took, what magic spells, how many millennia, you would love him no matter what it took. Even if it took threatening everyone around you, it didn't matter to Bill. He'd found you, and he wasn't letting go.

Not ever
