#sheep!reader

Ngl I’ve been really into @moondirti ‘s sheep girl AU and I just remembered the existence of anti-wolf collars and uhhhhhh…. Thinking about a hybrid AU where sheep!reader is in a flock guarded by Pyrenees!König. This could work with so many of them, but I thought of him first.

sheep!reader - a concept

✦ sheep!reader loves the outdoors, and is usually found basking under the sun as they daydream or running around the grassy plains as they chase butterflies. However, they value the company and prefer to spend their time with others, thriving in groups rather than in their solitude.

✦ sheep!reader is kind in their nature, and would do anything for their loved ones. They also like to show their affection physically, always ready to give a warm hug to someone who needs it, or shower their significant other with pretty little kisses all over their face.

✦ sheep!reader is, however, oblivious to the evil in others. They trust those they love, and want to fit in so desperately that they're easy to mold- easy to manipulate. They like to see the good in others, but often forget that evil also exists.

✦ sheep!reader, who is easily spooked or surprised. They feel squeamish at the sight of a single drop of blood and shiver in fear when they hear a strange sound. Though they'll often try to mask it underneath an awkward close-mouthed smile or giggle. If you ask them to watch a true-crime show with you, they'll still accept even if they don't want to deep inside.

✦ sheep!reader, who likes to do arts and crafts in their free time. They're dreamers and like to put their creativity into something of their own, such as their own plushies, clothing, diy home decorations and many more.

✦ sheep!reader, who likes collecting vintage items like precious moments figurines, vinyl, and even fabrics. Their song library is also full of old songs and classical music, not having a liking for rap, rock and metal music. They listen to their music either on their iPod or record player. Their musical muses are mazzy star, kate bush, the cranberries, phil collins, autumn's grey solace and the smiths.

✦ sheep!reader, who loves wearing soft and lighter colors, no matter the season. They nail the southern belle, farmer's daughter and cottagecore aesthetics, giving them an angelic appearance; radiating joy and innocence and beauty that surely catches many eyes, though they never seem to notice as they're in their own little world.

✦ sheep!reader, who tries their best at everything, but often feel like they're doing everything wrong. They often find themselves cringing about something they said in a conversation from days ago, tripping and falling in front of everyone at the worst moment possible, or not being able to concentrate on their studies and understanding the subjects they're taught. They're emotionally fragile, easily overwhelmed and stressed.

✦ sheep!reader, who loves animals and is 100% a future cat lady. They find almost every animal cute and adorable- from spiders to sharks. Despite their skittishness to most things, animals are the only thing they aren't scared of. They love watching animal documentaries for hours- and they never get bored.

✦ sheep!reader, who likes to draw people they find pretty. Honestly, they find everyone beautiful, but those who are kind-hearted and have beauty inside and outside are ought to get at least one drawing from them.

ib: @princessbrunette !!

a/n: everyone is free to send me an ask with sheep!reader in any of the universes mentioned in my rules and I'll do my best to make them fit in the story/au! if it's an anime, modern!au is preferred. I based them a little off myself, so I hope you all like them!

Pope had stayed after school to listen to his fellow students’ pleas for a more lenient dress code at homecoming to the debate club. They made some strong arguments, and in the end, they were able to meet in the middle.

He was walking to the parking lot when he heard someone letting out a flurry of creative curses from behind the building. Curiosity got the best of him, so he took a peek only to find the last person he expected. He called out her name, startling her out of her rage.

Pope can’t help but note how prettily she blushes. “Oh, Pope! I’m so sorry I don’t see you there.”

He shrugs, “It’s all good. What’s got you all worked up?”

She picks at the sleeve of her school cardigan. “I don’t want to trouble you with my problems. You have enough on your plate.”

He crosses his arms coolly and leans in, closing the distance between them. “What kind of school council president would I be if I didn’t listen to my fellow students? Let me lend an ear.”

She nods and looks down at the ground, mumbling to herself about something that Pope can’t make out. “My parents want me to go to Midsummer with Rafe.”

“Well, what do you wanna do?”

She looks shocked at the question, eyes wide and lips parted in wonder and awe. “No one’s ever-” she shakes her head, “All I know is I don’t want to go with him.”

He puts his hands in his pockets and shrugs, “Then don’t.”

She sighs exasperatedly, “It’s not that simple, and you know it.”

He nods to himself and purses his lips in tight. She knows that look, she’s seen it in Geometry when he’s tackling a problem that even stumps him. Or when she walks past the English classroom after school and sees him listening to his debate club members He’s taking in the statement, analyzing the situation. She knows that look but she’s still thrown for a loop when he speaks. “Then go with me.”

She swears her eyes are going to pop out of her skull with how wide they are. “What?”

“They can’t make you go with him if you already have a date, right?”

The mischievous smile he gives her fills her stomach with butterflies.

She nods then shakes her head, her brain still trying to make sense of what he means.

“I mean, yes, but-”

“Perfect, it’s a date!” He grins and begins to walk backwards before turning around with a dramatic flare she’s never seen in him before. She watches him get in his car and pull out of the parking lot. It snaps her out of her daze.

“Really?” She calls out to him, causing him to brake and look back at her through his open window. “Look I don’t want you getting in trouble. or anything-”

● 𝘞𝘰𝘭𝘧! 𝘑𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘹 𝘚𝘩𝘦𝘦𝘱! 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳 AU. ●

Nervousness coursed through his entire body.

And here he was again. Letting this little sheep lean and sleep on him, with their head resting on his shoulder.

Jake admitted, they were cute. But still, he didn't want to get attached to the sheep, because he was a wolf. And wolves and sheep are not a good combination, at least that's how he sees it.

But, still, he couldn't bring himself to try to get the little sheep away from him each time the Sheep visited him, and they spoke in a gentle and encouraging tone of voice that made him want to stay close. No matter how much he tried to scare them, The Sheep just wouldn't go away, it looked like they were determined to become his friend. He didn't like that, as all he wanted was to get away from them. And it didn't help that as time passed there was this strange feeling of him wanting the sheep around more and more, making it difficult for him to resist.

Jake sighed looking at the sheep beside him, studying its cute face. As he always did. They seemed so innocent and pure, but Jake knew better than to trust anything or anyone completely.

It was always like that, since the beginning.

Of course now, he lets the sheep come closer and talks to them, but nothing much has changed.

The sheep was starting to stir awake, Jake saw its eyes open slowly. It round eyes stared up at him, it blinked a few times before it started talking;

"Hey Jake, what you are doing?"

"Nothing really."

"I see."

Jake could hear the sheep's thoughts clearly now, and it sounded like they had an idea of what he was thinking about.

"Sooo...have you thought about my proposal?"

"Hm,well..." He sighs.

Jake thought about it for a moment. Maybe...It would be nice if he could have someone to talk to, especially since he hadn't seen any other animals yet. He'd been avoiding them, because he was afraid they might keep asking him questions about where he came from, and why he was out here by himself.

"Hm...No..."

The Sheep looked at him confused and then let out a light laugh.

"haha! It's ok jake! I'll wait until you make up your mind!"

They say with a smile on their face, lightly patting Jake on the shoulder. The sheep then gets up and stretches.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow, so thanks for letting me take a nap on you!"

The sheep says, as they walks towards the forest. Only, to stop and then turn around again screaming at him;

"And don't forget! think about my proposal!"

Jake just nodded, looking at them in the distance.

They turn around again and run back into the trees. The proposal they talked so much about, was that they could stand by Jake's side. They once told him that, they would like to know what it was like to live away from their flock, they always liked to explore new places, but they knew the risks of doing so, so they offered Jake a proposal so they could stay by their side safely and being able to explore around by his side, while they do whatever (as long as it's not so exaggerated and it's not about eating them) that he asks for.

It's even funny to think that the first day they ran away from their flock, out of curiosity, they came across a wolf. But, instead of being scared or surprised, they were even more curious to know about him. Mainly, by one who didn't bother to eat them, but only threatened them from time to time.

"Well it looks like we got some work to do today! We need to get ready for winter, and it's already getting cold. So we should probably start gathering wood and food for the winter, so we can survive till spring!"

Jake nodded, he understood what the sheep was saying. They needed to prepare for the coming winter, and get everything ready so they could survive the harsh winters. He felt bad for them, having to go through such tough conditions, but he also felt happy for them too, that they had found each other, and were going to stick together and survive the coming winter.

Jake followed the sheep outside, and helped gather some firewood, and brought it back inside to dry. After a while they went into the forest to look for food, and soon enough they came across a deer, which they took down with ease.

Afterwards, they headed back to the cabin and cooked the meat over the fire, with Jake eating the meat and the sheep just eating some salad and corn. After that, they gathered the rest of the wood and set it aside for later.

As they were about to leave, Jake asked the sheep.

"Hey...err,what was your name again?"

"What?!"

The Sheep made an offended expression while looking at jake. Which just continued with the same calm expression.

"I already told you my name yesterday!..." they say, their tone of voice sounding low, only for them to perk up again and get back to talking excitedly.

"Fine! it's ok, you must have forgotten, it's ok to forget I also forget a lot of things sometimes hehe! But, well...AHEM!" they give a fake cough and go back to talking.

"Well,my name is ____!" they talk excitedly, with a cute smile on their face.

Jake nodded.

"It's nice to meet you."

"Thanks!"

The two smiled at each other and talked some more later.

_____

That night, Jake sat alone in the cabin, watching the fire burn brightly.

He looked at the sheep's sleeping form, lying next to him on the bed. They were curled up tightly, their legs tucked under them, their soft fluffy tail wagging randomly every now and then.

Jake couldn't help but feel drawn to them, he felt protective towards them.

They were so cute and innocent, just like a child. They didn't know what was happening around them, and Jake wished he could protect them from all the bad things that happened in this world.

Jake thinks a little about his actions next, but then, decides to put his negative thoughts aside.

Jake slowly approaches the Sheep, and with one arm pressed now into the Sheep's back, he slowly slides them close to him, pulling them close to his chest, now in a hugging form.

His tail unconsciously curls close to the sheep, wagging slightly, as Jake feels his face heat up a little.

He prays for that the sheep won't wake up and see him in the situation he's in. He doesn't want to scare them away, but he can't help it. He needs to be close to them, he wants to be near them.

Jake lays down on the bed, and cuddles the sheep, feeling their warmth against him. He closes his eyes and relaxes.

He slowly starts to drift off to sleep.

After some time, suddenly he hears a loud "wuah!", and he opens his eyes to see the sheep standing in front of him.

"What's wrong?" Jake asks, rubbing his eyes and sitting up. Getting a little worried.

"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you!" the sheep apologizes.

"No, it's ok, I just wasn't expecting you to wake up."

"But, err..jake?"

"Hm?"

"why are you hugging me?"

Jake's face quickly turns a little red, and he pulls away faster, looking away and falling silent soon after. The Sheep get surprised by his quickness and then smile, chuckling lightly at Jake's reaction.

"Haha! Hey, if you wanted a hug, you just needed to ask!"

Jake doesn't respond, still looking away for the wall, embarrassed. Only for him to be surprised by a pair of arms wrapping around his stomach, making him jump slightly. He looks over his shoulder to notice the sheep hugging him from behind, their face pressed to his back and they were with their eyes closed having a slight relaxed and happy smile on their face, their cheeks slightly flushed.

Jake blushes a bit more, and slowly sits up. He looks back at the sheep, who was now looking up at him.

"I'm sorry for waking you up." Jake says, a hint of embarrassment in his voice.

"It's ok, it's not a problem." the sheep replies happily.

Jake then looks at the sheep and smiles.

"Thanks for the hug...i guess."

"It's nothing!" they reply happily.

Jake then takes a deep breath and stands up, stretching out.

"Ok, I think it's time to go to sleep now, we have a lot to do tomorrow, so let's get some rest."

"Yes, let's get some rest." the sheep replies.

Jake nods, going back to the bed and laying down. He then closes his eyes, trying to fall asleep as fast as possible, only for him to feel something on top of his chest. When he opens his eyes again and looks at what it is, he sees the sheep, already sleeping, with a smile on their face and with their hands clasped on his chest.

Jake sigh, and closes his eyes, feeling the sheep's warm breath on his skin.

also..i have an idea for pyrenees!könig, there’s this thing called sheep dipping where sheep are placed onto a cage and submerged into a liquid that keeps away bugs and stuff. How about babydollsheep!reader who is nervous to go through it? How does könig react?

- 🍭🪻

YESS FELLOW MIDSOMMAR ENJOYER

Also thank you for telling me about sheep dipping because now I’ve seen so many pictures of sheeps in their little chemical hot tubs. Didn’t see any with the cage involved, to my recollection, mostly just those like livestock guiding chutes.

König knows in his rational brain that there’s nothing to be scared of and that this is for your own good. Fluffy little things like you need this to keep from being bitten up underneath all that wool.

But in his hindbrain he wants to kill the bath for making your lip quiver.

Usually humans guide the dipping process and it’s easy enough— the dogs mostly get the day off since all of the sheep are inside. You’re the exception every single time. König has to herd you through. Since you’re a babydoll, the humans could just move you like a little sack of potatoes and dunk you in, but they don’t want to stress you, and they’d prefer if you learned to go on your own eventually.

“It’s not so bad, lammchen. I won’t let anything happen to you.”

“Promise?”

“Promise.”

Later when you’re curled up on a blanket and drying off, König is curled around you. The sterile, chemical smell burns his nose a little, and he’ll probably reek of the solution for a little while, but it’s a small price to pay.

“You think that next time you won’t need me?” He asks.

“No— I’ll always need you…” you say in a sleepy little huff.
