gagsydb well butter my potato I'm sorryđ
If you're interested in the reader insert rn why don't we change up TP and instead make the fem!Reader and Link from the same world and Cloud as a companion. Its a love triangle but at the finale Cloud has to go back to his dimension. Prompts 13 ; 30đ If you have a problem with it plz plz tell. I can totally do something else for youđ«đ
âButter my potatoâ đ Donât worry, this is good! Itâs just so much easier for me to write with reader insert. Since Link doesnât usually speak in the games, itâs really hard for me to picture him with dialogue, so I gave both sentences to reader and the responses to Cloud đ
Cloud Strife & Link x Gender Neutral Reader
I had a terrible certainty, one that broke my heart. I had known Link for a long time, too long not to develop certain feelings for him. We had grown up together, faced dangers together, saved each otherâs lifes countless times. We had gone through so much and my heart had spoken. Cloud on the other hand, had barged into our lives without meaning, he just appeared one day, quite literally. He was always talking about going back to where he belonged, to his home. And even if I had grown incredibly fond of him, it wasnât the same. Then... why couldnât I let him go once he finally could?
âStay with me, pleaseâ I clung on to his arm, successfully making him stop his walking. âDonât goâ
Cloud sighed, looking at me over his shoulder. I still didnât let go of him, even as I felt Linkâs piercing gaze burning in my nape.Â
âWho do you love?â Cloud suddenly asked me, seeming quite serious.
âI...â Looking from one to the other, I hesitated to answer. Even if I knew the truth, even if they did too. It was obvious.
âJust say it, Y/Nâ Cloud muttered, now resigned to the inevitable.
âI love you both...â I averted my gaze, slowly letting go of him. âJust in different waysâ
âYouâve made your choiceâ He replied with a sigh. âThis isnât my place anywayâ
âBut...â I stupidly mumbled, not really knowing what else to say.
I took a step forward, but Linkâs arms tenderly wrapped around me to stop me. Cloud was already at the portal, the one that we had worked so hard to find. The one that would return him to his dimension and bring him home. Away from us. Away from me. Maybe forever.
âItâs okayâ He nodded his head, and he didnât seem angry or hurt. Just accepting even if a little sad. âI get it, you two go way backâ
âAt least...â I whispered, daring to carefully lock eyes with him. âBe careful out thereâ
âAlways amâ Cloud simply replied, then moving his gaze until it fell over Link. âTake care of Y/Nâ
Linkâs hands squeezed me gently, and I knew that was his way of promising it to Cloud. That he could leave knowing we both would be safe, protecting each other like we always had.
Cloud stopped before the portal, throwing us a last glance before walking through it. Immediately, I felt a void in my chest caused by his absence. We had known each other for such little time, but he would always have a place in my heart.
Link hugged me tight, filling that emptiness with the warmth of his embrace.
