#reader x falin

[But Y/N isn't asleep. Matter of fact, his heart is beating loudly, he's afraid it might somehow... wake up and freaking out the rest of the party... Okay mainly Laois or Marcille–

[Falin wraps tightly around him. The two of them are laying down under a blanket, completely intertwined. Her arms tightly wrap around his neck, their foreheads resting comfortably next each other. What makes him blushes the most, is that he's wrapping his arms around her waist... Oh my hell she's so soft–

[Both of them are in a full body hug position, the kind Falin would throw herself in with Y/N without hesitation]

[Y/N's face is burning, bright red. The heat has made its way to the tips of his ears. Y/N is stiff as a board, trying his best to breath normally while staring at Falin's gorgeous sleeping face]

[But it unfortunately ends when Y/N tighten Falin a bit too much, leading to Falin let out a little hum, and opening one of her eyes. She takes in the sight of his red face]

Falin : Y/N?

[Falin pulls back one of her arms and places a hand on his red cheek. Her palm feels soft like her skin, which only makes his face burn redder]

Falin : Are you alright? You're so red... Do you have a fever? Did one of the mushrooms spray you earlier?

[Y/N let out a weak sound, desperately trying to find his words. His eyes staring at her with an embarrassed look, overwhelming more like it]

M!Reader blushing : I—I don't have a fever, Falin...

Falin : Then why are you so hot?

[Falin asks, her open eye staring at him with genuine concern as she snuggles up a bit closer, her chest pressing against his... Help–

[Y/N let out a completely utter sigh]

M!Reader : Because! How the hell is your body so soft?!

[Falin blinks, caught completely off guard. She stares at him for a few silent seconds, processing his words. Then, she closes her eye, and smiles warmly before pulling him a bit closer. Both of their foreheads were resting and touching each other, now their faces are closer to each other, making his shoulders shudder]

[Her hand touching his cheek retracts back around his neck]

Falin : I suppose it's the salmon platter I ate before we all went down to the dungeon... But if you think I'm soft, then I just have to have you closer...

[Falin says before opening both of her eyes, staring directly into his eyes. Now, both of their bodies are closer than before... The only thing on his mind is him screaming–

[Namari bumped her elbow onto Y/N—Y/N is seen just standing stiff, eyes wide with a shocked expression as he is seen holding a cup of brewed tea but is not drinking it]

Namari : Earth to Y/N?–

Chilchuck : Don't bother, he's been standing there for several minutes now...

Namari : What exactly happened...?

Chilchuck : You know him and falin just became a thing, right?

Namari : Yeah, I was there for the confession... I was literally the one who used and threw some cut grass as confetti when it happened

Chilchuck : Yeah well–Y/N and falin last night had their arms around each other in a quiet way to share warmth that eased tension–

Namari : Just say cuddling...

Chilchuck : Yeah, and that seems to turn him into... That...

[Namari gets in front of Y/N and snaps her fingers In front of his face]

Namari : Okay Y/N, snap out of it—

[Y/N casually handed chilchuck the cup of brewed tea–Which chilchuck simply held as Y/N holds onto both of namari's shoulders and leaned a little closer]

M!Reader blushing : Her. Body. Face. And. Hair. Are. Soft. As. F*CK.

[Inside the automated trolley, the party has just come to a realization from Senshi that there is a chance Falin would return to normal if they eat all of her dragon parts]

Laios : But at least we've got clear goals now...

———

Laios : I'm suddenly feeling optimistic about this! But... What about Y/N?

[The inside of the trolley becomes quiet, remembering the moment Y/N got taken by Falin. That is until Senshi hums in deep thought, remembering the scene happening]

Senshi : From the fight, when Y/N and Kabru tried to find Falin's weak spot, Falin couldn't keep her eyes off Y/N. Everytime he gets close, it would makes sense if she were to attack him with a devastating blow...

Sensi : But she reacts to him. Even in that state, she knows who Y/N is...

Marcille : But she's trapped, Senshi! Thistle is twisting her mind! How can she possibly remember when being controlled?

Senshi : Controlling the body doesn't mean you own the heart... I may not know the history behind the love story behind Y/N and Falin, but the way how Y/N speaks softly and lovingly about her, it seems they have a great bond...

Chilchuck : It can honestly give someone a cavity if that was possible...

Senshi : There is a chance that the stronger bond she has with someone, deep down, she still has some senses to have the feeling of remembering them. It's just harder for her to show it through all that mind spell...

Laios : What if... If that's possible, what if Thistle sees Falin carrying Y/N like a toy?

Senshi : Thistle is no simple elf, nor an empty headed one. Even if she did take Y/N to him, Y/N had dropped all of his weapons during the fight and is put inside of Chilchuck's bag

Chilchuck : Something I'm still not a fan of...

Senshi : Y/N is rendered as a defenseless and powerless captive. Y/N by now should realise that Falin hasn't killed him, if he sees Falin with Y/N there's a chance that Y/N can pull this off if he plays his cards right...

Senshi : Thistle will view Y/N as a "Pet" or "Toy" for his Monster, his lack of weapon and power makes him non threating. If Y/N plays his cards right and makes himself look even more absolutely defenseless, he'll let Falin keep him as a toy...

[Everyone goes quiet with the thought of Y/N basically being in a life or genuine death situation]

Marcille : let's just hope that Y/N can pull this off...

[Everyone goes quiet again, until Chilchuck tries to ease the atmosphere]

Chilchuck : Y/N's not a complete idiot, eighty percent most likely, but not a complete one. He'll be safe, even if he is in danger, we'll save both of them...

[Laios and Marcille smile while Senshi and Izutsumi are a bit surprised by his words]

Marcille : That's very sweet of you–

Chilchuck : Oh shut. I owe him a few gold coins...

Marcille : ...Uh–for what?

Chilchuck : We had a bet. "Laios would stand up for himself if Shuro ever raises his voice at him" I bet it wouldn't have happened, it's only fair I keep my end of the bargain...

Laois : Aww, that's very–...Wait you bet it wouldn't happen?—

Chilchuck : Look on the bright side, at least he'll smile when I tell him that you slapped Shuro...

Meanwhile

"...Oh my gosh somebody please help me..."

[In the deeper parts of the Dungeon, Falin is sleeping in a curled cat position, with Y/N in the empty spot at the center, his back leaning against her feathered body]

[While sleeping, Falin has her arms around his body while her head rests on his shoulder]

"Okay... Let me just–"

[Y/N carefully slides down, trying to escape her arms. When successful, he tries to tip toe his way out, but stops midway when he realises he's... about to leave Falin again...]

"...Gosh what do I do, I can't leave her! But She's... She's most likely gonna go to Thistle sooner or later when he calls her to do some monster errands... What do i–....Wait..."

[Y/N remembers every moment at the fight, he remembered the way Falin was staring at him with shock behind her eyes]

"Did... Did she know who I was–?!!"

[A massive, talon claw casually scoops Y/N off his feet and drags him back to the same spot. Falin wakes up and when he notices, Y/N goes entirely limp, offering the resistance of a wet noodle to keep her calm]

[Y/N stops limping like an idiot, noticing her staring right at him, with her head right next to him]

M!Reader : Are you... Falin, is that... Is that you–?!!

[Suddenly, Falin gives Y/N's cheek a long lick using her tongue, immediately blushing him]

M!Reader blushing : Okay–WHAT was that about?!

[Falin just keeps on staring at him, like the thing she just did is a casual thing. It's making him nervous again, sweating even]

M!Reader : Uhh... T-There there?

[Y/N pets her head, but she just tilts her head in confusion]

M!Reader : Can't blame me for trying. But, seriously, do... Do you... know me..?

[Falin doesn't move, yet still has the confused expression on her face. Y/N frowns, holding her cheek]

M!Reader : ...Sighs, if you were to kill me right now, there's no one I would rather see more before my final breath but you... This... This isn't the way I want us to reunite..

[Falin stares at the hand holding her, but then, she uses one of her own hands to hold onto the hand that's holding her cheek]

M!Reader : You... It seems you don't know me, but... you feel like you remember me... In a memory you probably forgot...

[Y/N starts to frown, remembering all of the memories between them]

M!Reader : Oh falin...

[Tears starting to fall down through his eyes and Falin doesn't know how to respond]

M!Reader : O-Okay, okayokay–not now, let's... See the situation...

[Y/N stares at his surroundings, seeing everytime is clearly more dangerous, an area he has yet to see in the Dungeon]

M!Reader : These walls are clearly different, woah... You brought me deeper into the dungeon...

[Falin has her head really close next to him, making him jolt by the sudden closeness. Her pupils dilated and golden shimmering eyes staring right at him, making him blush redder than before]

M!Reader blushing : ...Well at least I know I'm safe...

M!Reader : But what about Thistle... If he calls you and you're clearly gonna force me to follow you, he sees me, and I'll absolutely get deleted...

[Y/N is in deep thought, trying to think the best way to stay alive]

M!Reader : ...There's no other choice, my weapons are gone, I'm exhausted from fighting and being dragged by you, the best option is to basically be nothing more but a ragdoll for you... If he sees me completely on the brink of death, there's a chance he'll let you keep me... But, the problem is that I still look like I can still be healed...

[Y/N stares around him. He then makes an expression that says, "You have got to be kidding me..." Because he sees a medium size rock right next to him on the ground]

M!Reader : ...This is gonna hurt...

[Before Y/N grabs the rock, he looks back at Falin, only to look shock at the amount of stab wounds on her human body area]

M!Reader : Jeez, I forgot Kabru attacked you... It seems you even survived it with ease...

[Y/N grabs the rock from the ground, gripping it in his hand]

M!Reader : Sighs, My dear, you're about to see a guy beat the crap out of himself with a rock...

[Falin walks over carrying a stack of herbs and mushrooms]

Falin : Chuckles... You really are good with your hands, Y/N

[Falin kneels down beside him, watching him sort supplies with calm admiration]

Falin : It’s honestly mesmerizing

[Y/N stiffens, flattered but blinking in surprised and feeling tense]

M!Reader : ...W-Wait, what?

[Falin smiling innocently at Y/N, staring at him with her eyes close, letting out a short giggle]

Falin : I just meant, whenever I watch you handle things so carefully, like with the potion vials or the way you bandage wounds…

[Falin leans in a little, resting her chin on her hand as she watches him]

Falin : It makes me wonder how those hands would feel on me if I ever got hurt...

M!Reader : ....

[Y/N now practically short-circuiting]

M!Reader blushing : I–I–W-Wh–

[Y/N Pauses, blushing furiously]

M!Reader blushing : O-Okay falin you can’t just say things like that so sweetly like you’re describing soup temperature—

[Falin looking genuinely confused]

Falin : What did I say? I was being sincere, You’re very gentle, And your hands are warm

[Falin picks up a sprig of herb, holding it toward him with a soft smile]

Falin : Like this herb, Soothing, Comforting, …Would it help if I showed you what I mean?

[Y/N literally internally screaming on the inside]

M!Reader blushing : i-i... T-That...

[Falin still having a confused look but immediately switched to–softly smiling at Y/N's flustered ness, completely oblivious to the fire she’s lights in his brain]

Falin : You’re very cute when you get flustered, you know ^v^

[Falin tilts her head]

Falin : Was that a compliment too? I think I’m starting to understand how this works✨

"Damn Marcille, how come you get TWO human lovers?"

[Half of the party resting near a small underground stream, the glow of Marcille’s magic lighting the cavern walls and the campfire In front of them warming them up]

[The rest of the party searches the area parts of the cavern while the rest, Y/N, Marcille, Falin, and Chilchuck sit this one out to recharge]

[Chilchuck leans against his backpack with his hands behind his head, eyes close, with Marcille sitting beside him, holding her staff. Y/N sitting beside Falin, helping her adjust her pack, while chatting with chuckles]

[Chilchuck opens his eyes and stares to the side at Marcille, seeing her blushing with a smile on her face as she stares at Y/N and Falin]

[Chilchuck squints his eyes at her]

Chilchuck : Two human lovers? You sure are greedy...

[Chilchuck casually said. Marcille blinks a few times before turning bright red and stares directly at Chilchuck]

Marcille blushing : W–WHAT?! They’re not—! I mean— we’re not—!

Chilchuck : Don't even try, we all know what's going on between you three...

Marcille blushing : I don't know WHAT– You're trying to assume but we are not—

M!Reader : Oh. I thought we were~

[Falin tilts her head gently]

Falin : Hm? Haven't we talked about this?

[Marcille points at them]

Marcille blushing : Not in front of anyone!–

Chilchuck : Once again, the entirety of us already know you three have something going on

Marcille blushing : Name one time we've ever looked like a—

Chilchuck : Falin once got both of you a box of chocolates that are shaped like hearths, We've all seen you hold hands with both Y/N and Falin seperately, Y/N always hold onto both you and Falin's cheek just to ask if you two are okay...

Marcille blushing : Well— yeah, but that doesn't mean–

Chilchuck : both of you literally kissed Y/N's cheeks when it was his birthday...

Chilchuck : Look, I'm not judging, but if you want to keep this up, better evenly share—

Marcille blushing : You don't get to have a say in this!!

[Falin smiles softly, scoots and pats the empty space beside her between her and Y/N]

Falin : Marcille, come sit with us

Marcille : Oh!–Wait, r-really?

M!Reader : Chuckles, you know this isn't the first time we've sat together✨

Chilchuck : Yep, totally not–

Marcille blushing : Stay out of it!

Chilchuck : Hey, I said I'm not judging. Go on with your two idiots, I was about to take a nap anyway before I saw you eyeing them both like a trophy, I really need this nap...

[Chilchuck then just closes his eyes, almost immediately falling asleep. Marcille stands up and sits down between them both. Her blush gets redder from being sandwiched between them]

....

[Falin leans her shoulder against hers and Y/N lays his head on her shoulder]

Marcille blushing : ...Sighs, am I really that bad at lying–

Falin : Hm–

M!Reader : Extremely, yes✨

Chilchuck : ....THE MAP WAS WHAT?!

[Chilchuck heard from their chatting in the background, Y/N cleaning his sword with a cloth]

M!Reader : Okay remind me again why we have laois holding the map....

Namari : ...He won the "pick the longest straw" fair and square

M!Reader : Yeah–Remind me we should have ANOTHER system to decide that next time... Laois, dude, you're a sweet guy, more importantly your my best friend, but when it comes to picking directions, it isn't really your strong suit....

Laois : Ouch, but aww, thanks!

[Falin giggles softly, placing down her staff, she placed a hand on top of Y/N's hand, stopping his movements from cleaning his sword, Y/N a bit puzzled]

M!Reader : Hm?-Oh! Fali, Do you need something–...!?

[Falin moves closer to Y/N, lifting her other hand to cup his cheeks, turning his face slightly from side to side as she inspects him]

[Y/N tries to clears his throat, a red blush starts appearing on his face slowly getting a bit redder]

M!Reader blushing : U-Uh... W-wha—

Falin : Hmm... Hold still, Y/N

[Her tone warm and filled with genuine concern]

[She leans in just a bit, scanning Y/N's features with quiet focus, completely unaware of how flustered he’s getting]

Falin : I thought I saw you take a hit earlier, I just want to make sure you’re not bruised...

[Y/N getting redder, heart pounding each second, falin opening her eyes slightly staring at him, making Y/N panicking more]

Falin : You're... You're really warm, are you okay?

M!Reader blushing : I-I'M FINE! TOTALLY FINE! N-NO NEED TO WORRY!—

[Falin heard a whistle from namari while Y/N was still blushing, not paying much attention to the whistle, Falin moves her head to the side and sees namari pointing her finger at her cheek and then points at Y/N]

[Falin after a few seconds of processing, staring at Y/N's blush and namari's gesture back in forth... Finally realizing]

Falin: Oh? .....Ah!✨ Right!

[Without hesitation, Falin leans in and presses a soft, sweet kiss on Y/N’s cheek, her lips softly connected to his cheek for more then a minute]

M!Reader blushing : ......A-Are–...Are you gonna let go of my cheeks now cause I swear I need to lay down after that....

Falin : I can't now, you looked so cute all flustered like that✨

[Y/N groans, his face now a deeper shade of red as he tries to look anywhere but at Falin]

....

[Namari now with a smile and Chilchuck still with a deadpan expression staring at the two, falin smothering Y/N, then gave each other a fist bump]
