#mgs4 raiden

Trying out a new style to see if I can fist fight my art block away and it’s kinda working but I’m definitely not making my life any easier by rotting away behind my pc playing dead by daylight XD

Anyway also have some process shots and the speedpaint because this style was so weird to work in lmao

They look edible

Sure!

Bodyguard!Raiden x Handsy!Reader headcannons:

MGS2 Raiden:

-Raiden isn't used to being touched so...weirdly.

-Sure, he's used to being touched, as in the occasional shoulder/headpat, a professional handshake, and of course, a punch to the face.

-But here you are, putting your hands all over him, running those smooth, smooth palms up and down his sides--it's really getting him kind of flustered!

-Of course he won't admit it, that'd be ridiculous. He'll only sit or stand in silence as your curious hands roam his body, and then quickly push you away once he hears someone getting closer to wherever you're hanging out.

-He will die before he admits to anyone that his relationship with you is anything but professional. He was hired to be your bodyguard, and guard your body he will! Besides, it's not his fault that you keep wanting to touch him, nor is it against his contract, so he'll let you keep doing it.

-Loves it when you run your hands through his hair.

-But also loves it when you grope his butt and grab at those supple, juicy cheeks of his and can't resist letting out a squeak or two.

MGS4 Raiden:

-Raiden now has less of himself than he used to, and isn't happy about it. Put simply, he hates his new body, but knows that there's no recovering what he lost.

-Seeing you so intrigued by his cyborg parts makes him simultaneously mad and warm inside. He's mad because he hates himself, and can't believe that you don't, and is warmed by your actions for that exact same reason. It's a paradox.

-But when you're around, he doesn't have to worry too much about paradoxes. He can just enjoy the way you touch him--except for when your hands go a little lower than they should! Then he just jumps a little and gives you this half-annoyed, half-amused look that only serves to egg you on.

-He'll melt if you hold his head in your hands and use your thumbs to caress his cheeks, because it's just such a sweet and wholesome gesture.

-He knows, however, that your interests involve things that are further south, so when you accidentally brush against something that strikes a certain sensor within him, don't say that you didn't bring this upon yourself.

-His newly created nether regions don't have all that much feeling yet, since he's yet to get used to them and the technology responsible for touch sensitivity and pleasure down there is limited, don't expect him to get too excited.

MGR Raiden:

-Oh, how times have changed. Remember that mediocre pleasure tech we just discussed? Well, it's been upgraded.

-Now he finds himself quite ticklish and will end up squirming a little whenever you put your hands on him.

-He's also grown a little more accustomed to his cyborg body by now, so all those angsty sentiments from before have faded somewhat.

-He knows that sitting in a limo with you will only tempt you, so he gave up trying to keep your hands off him and just made sure every vehicle you guys get in has soundproof glass.

-Honestly doesn't mind it when you hold his hand in public. Sure, it gets the both of you some weird looks, but it's not like he's doing anything wrong, and it keeps both of you grounded in reality.

-In front of his "close" friends (think Kevin or Boris), he'll ask you to keep the touching to a minimum because 1. Whenever they call, it's usually a serious matter, and 2. He doesn't want to get teased by these people in particular.
