pairing: squall leonhart x gn!reader

tags: wholesome fluff, squall is bad at feelings (but gets better), protective & jealous!squall, irvine flirting with you to tease squall, cuddling in private

squall is so bad at expressing his feelings! it all starts with a small crush on you that he tries to bury deep inside, until his feelings for you become too much for squall to handle

he's incredibly protective of you! honestly to a degree where it's just stupid– squall will throw himself into danger just at the suggestion that you might be in trouble

he'll scold you and yell at you for being careless or getting hurt, but he'll also comfort you and coddle you afterwards– he just can't help himself when it's you…

while squall might dislike public displays of affection, he'll make an exception for you (begrudgingly). you're allowed to cuddle, kiss and cling to him as much as you like, but squall WILL frown and complain about it

in private, squall is much softer with you and he'll even get affectionate himself! he's a big cuddler, loving to just fall asleep while having his arms wrapped around you. though kissing is something he still gets flustered about early on–

of course, squall's friends tease him about his softer side around you! they all love you dearly and think you're good for squall! but even so, they will annoy the hell out of him–

especially irvine knows how to get to squall! he'll flirt with you, just to watch squall get all jealous and angry! it's quite amusing to him, until squall draws his blade and comes at him. that's when irvine knows he better make a run for it…

squall is a pretty jealous boyfriend, but the type that just keeps his mouth shut and will pout and glare in silence. he doesn't like seeing you with other guys, but he'll begrudgingly accept them around you…

pairing: squall leonhart x gn!reader x rinoa heartilly

tags: polyamorous relationship, wholesome fluff, affectionate!squall & rinoa

rinoa fell for you first, but squall fell for you harder – which is already an achievement in itself, as rinoa likes you quite a lot!

still, rinoa is much more open with her feelings for you and is all around quite flirty and charming with you from the start, while squall needs a while to express his feelings

but once the three of you end up dating, squall gets better at those things! and it's thanks to rinoa and you!

squall is pretty affectionate and loving in private. he's not big on public displays of affection, but that's more rinoa's thing anyways!

rinoa loves to tease squall a little, in an attempt to get him out of his shell and lower his walls. and if you join her, you two can annoy the hell out of squall together! it's quite fun for rinoa and you, just don't ask about how squall feels about it–

on a more serious note, there's hardly anything rinoa and you can do to make squall dislike you two! he'll roll his eyes and get annoyed, but at the end of the day, he loves you two madly!

squall would absolutely die for you! he's super protective of the two of you and with how much of a hot-head he can be at times, you two should keep an eye on him during battles…

pairing: seifer almasy x gn!reader

tags: delusional & possessive!seifer, overprotective!seifer seeing reader as weak, accomplices!fujin & raijin

once seifer has his eyes set on you, he won't let anyone else near you! any guy that might make a move on you will swiftly be eliminated by him–

he's not the type to make a move on you right away, as he's too prideful for that! seifer wants to see you pursue him, if possible

though if you're a bit too popular, seifer will just claim you as his. it's less him asking you out and more him letting you know that he wants you and will have you either way

in seifer's eyes, you're helpless and weak. naturally, everyone is weaker than him, but you especially! so you NEED him to protect you, don't you?

he's quite overprotective of you. even if you're a member of seed, seifer won't let you fight. you have him now to fight for you, so you might as well just throw away your weapon!

despite seifer loving you, he's not always the nicest to you. he views you as his possession, so sometimes he treats you rather harshly. especially when you do something he doesn't approve of

like leaving him, for example. seifer won't allow you to break up with him or leave his side. if you ever get a stupid idea like that, he's more than willing to lock you away and have raijin and fujin look after you, to make sure you don't try to run away…
