Greaseball

-Suuuper smug when you first meet

-At first she probably thinks you're just another of her many fans

-However, you're one of the first to actively try to get closer to her! Sure, a few other fans have tried, but most did too much ,to a point of restraining orders, or stopped after a week, usually finding a new obsession 

-But not you. You stayed persistent, while respecting boundaries :)

-she revels in the attention you give her; you honestly need to be careful, before her already-over-the-top ego grows even bigger!! 

-whenever she decides she needs extra attention, she'll  just wait for you to come around, and goes "I'm so pretty, aren't I?" or purposefully works out in front of you, and she'll fully expect you to feed into her ego, once again (you do) (this is canon, this is basically just "pumping Iron"-) 

-Eventually, you become a constant in her life, something, or rather someone, she can rely on to be there, even during the chaos of the races.

-she doesn't even realise that she looks longingly after you, when you do have to go. Starlight forbid anyone ever calls her out on it, though :p

-She really notices this, when you weren't there during a smaller race (maybe you got sick, maybe you were busy racing yourself, ect.). She finds herself visibly annoyed at the lack of attention before the race. Sure her fans were there, but it just wasn't the same. She beat up so many other trains during that race.

-When she gets back to the yard, she just sits there for a while, contemplating. because your missing presence should not affect the champion this much.

-Eventually she comes to terms with the fact that she likes you, and starts to reciprocate your affection ever so slightly. For example, if you hug her, she'll put an arm around your waist!

-It may not be much, but it's a start! she isn't used to caring this much. yet ;)

Rusty

-Poor boy is shocked.

-There are so many powerful and fast engines rolling around the yard - the champion herself is there! And yet you like him? a shunter engine?!

-Safe to say, he isn't used to the attention; it flusters him!

-Every time you as much as put a hand on his shoulder, he turns red and steam comes out  of his ears! Every time you hug him, he just freezes in place, as if turned to stone! The first few times you thought the corrosion had finally eaten away at his train equivalent of a brain

-However, he'd be lying if he said that he minds; he isn't exactly used to attention, let alone kindness. Sure, the carriages are nice, but aside from Pearl, he wouldn't be surprised if it's out of pity - not to mention, that it's a nice change of pace, compared to the bullying he endures from Greaseball and her Gang

-Despite how shy he gets, he tries to reciprocate, but he usually ends up making it awkward.. He doesn't mean to, he just genuinely doesn't know what he's doing, he's not used to this level of affection! 

-But you don't mind - you'd dare to call it endearing :) and that gives him some confidence, that you won't leave the moment you have a chance with one of the big shots

-He slowly starts to get used to your affection, and becomes less awkward himself! He no longer breaks at every touch! In fact, he starts to lean into your touches, finding them more comforting than anything

-Eventually, he even starts seeking you out himself, especially on days where work was exhausting, or Greaseballs gang was extra mean

-You become a sort of save space for him, someone he knows he can always turn to, someone who won't judge him for being himself

-By now, the way he looks at you has by far surpassed your own heart eyes. You may have fallen first, but he fell so much harder :)

Hydra

-Another smug one, but in a less egotistical way

-After his constant preaching about Hydrogen being the best option, it just feels good to be appreciated for once, instead of turned away!

-...even if technically isn't exactly because of that.. shhh, let the guy dream

- He really just lets you, he won't exactly reciprocate at first, but he doesn't mind! simply takes it as a compliment, and side hug you, at most

-Though conversation are bound to happen, considering how much time you spent around him; no matter if he's practicing for races, doing his job as a fuel truck, preaching about hydrogen, or simply taking a break, you are almost always around the corner 

- Turns out you two actually have a lot in common, and you don't mind his passion for protecting the environment either! 

-After a while, you two can usually be seen huddled together, laughing about something stupid, or simply talking about the most random things, barely ever even inches apart!

-The other freight trains definitely tease him about it; they give him teasing looks when you're together, or jokingly mimicking you two

-Just like with the previous two, it starts to be a lot weirder for you to not be there, instead of the other way around! whenever you two haven't seen each other in a bit, whether it's been a few days or just a few hours, it doesn't matter: when you see each other again, he'll be standing there expectantly, with his arms open :)

-You are definitely the person he trusts most, by now! after all, it's pretty hard to spill each others secrets while constantly around each other!

Dinah 

-The girl is surprised; usually she's the Lovestruck one!

-She found your Lovestruck gaze adorable, and was honestly flattered to be the receiver of it

-While, unlike Rusty, she can still function, in spite of all your affection, she is certainly a blushy mess through and through!

-You two fit each other perfectly - once she got used to your affection, she is just as affectionate! Some would describe the two of you sickeningly sweet

-The other coaches get to hear all about you, and not as a passing comment either! No, you are the main topic of their girls (+Tassita) night, with discussions that go late into the night

-All the coaches are very supportive of you two, they're glad that Dinah is happy! 

-Eventually, you two spent so much time together, that it's almost weird to see you two apart! And she couldn't say that she minds, you make great company, in her opinion :)

-It already felt great to have her love language be appreciated, but to have it reciprocated? she couldn't wish for more!

-you two are truly the perfect duo, complementing each other perfectly; according to rumours, you two are the cutest couple in the yard! 

-You're the type of pair, to steal the attention from the actual race, because the cameras are busy getting all your cute moments for the fans

-If you're an engine, she definitely wants to race together, after all it's just more time for the two of you to be close! It doesn't matter if you're a top racer, or tend to hang in the back; she is as loyal as can be, she'll stick around!

-Over all, you two make the cutest couple!

My first StEx request, suuuper exited!! Hope you like it hehe <33

Ngl Hydras Part ended up kinda short, had a black out for him, for some reason :,)

Anywaysss, Feedback is welcome, just be nice, please!!

The red humanoid caboose sits before you on his throne as he takes a sip of a crimson liquid from the wine glass in his hand with one leg crossed over the other. The liquid stains his lips and sharp teeth as he smiles a wolfish grin. You know all too well what the dark red liquid is and you can’t help but shudder at the thought. It’s not unusual to see him like this. A soft purr escapes his throat as his piercing and predatory pale blue gaze studies your frame. You’re so small compared to him. He could easily end your life within a matter of moments, yet he chooses not to. The sheer adrenaline from this relationship. Being a prey item in love with such a cruel and powerful predator is what you simply can’t get enough of.

“Well, now.. since we are alone. I suppose a little quality time is in order.” His sweet voice rings out and he chuckles softly, sounding similar to that of a hyena. He snaps his fingers and another human rushes out from the dark halls, holding a silver platter and offering it to CB. The caboose set his wine glass onto the platter and waved the human away. They nod before racing back into the halls, not wanting to risk staying around for far too long and facing the king’s anger.

You nod, averting his gaze. You can almost feel the intensity of that piercing gaze of his just boring into your very soul. CB stands up, towering over you. You’re nearly half his height if not slightly smaller. He skates over to you, only taking a stride or two before he circles around you. His wolfish grin never leaves his face as he slows to a stop before bending down and offering a hand for you to take. You almost hesitate before placing your smaller hand into his much larger one. CB gently wrapped his fingers around your delicate hand. He could easily crush your hand if he wanted to, yet he chooses not to. You are at his mercy.

You yelp in surprise as he stands mostly upright and pulls you close. His crushing jaws mere inches from your face, allowing you to get a good look at his fangs that are stained with red. He purrs softly and together, the two of you dance in the silence of the throne room. He makes sure to take it slow with you, not wanting to risk you falling or injuring yourself. You both know the scent of blood drives him mad.

You dare to meet his pale blue eyes. You’re not sure how you managed to catch the king’s eye. Regardless, you wouldn’t trade it for the world. You smile as he dips you backwards slightly and he smirks. Within an instant, CB sweeps you off your feet and cradles you in his powerful arms. You can hear and feel his purring right in your ear as you rest your head against him. You look up at him and he smiles softly, lowering his head before giving you a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Greaseball

-Refuses to be the small spoon, thinks it would make her seem weak

-Likes to just hold you, really. Her personal favourite is the two of you laying down somewhere, you laying on her chest with her arms around you!  Basic, but good :) plus, this way she gets to use you as a weighted blanket; something she didn't know she needed

-Falls asleep pretty fast. The moment you two lay/sit down, and you're comfortably in her arms, she's out like a light. 

-She always claims that she's just tired after a day of hard work, but really she finds cuddling with you oddly comforting, like she can just escape her busy schedule for a bit

-Has a death grip on you, once she's asleep, you aren't going anywhere. I also believe her to be a deep sleeper, so waking her up isn't easy either (she'd also be moody if woken up)

-Despite that, if you do manage to escape her grip, for whatever reason, she is up within the minute, and she is not happy. Will hunt you down, especially if it's already late out, and drag you back to your cuddle spot, probably while grumbling something incohesive

-Another type of cuddle she likes is to just come up behind you randomly throughout the day, wrap her arms around you, and not let go till she has to go back to work

-Doesn't care if you're in a conversation with someone, you're her partner! She doesn't even pretend to care about the conversation; if the other person asks what she's doing or tries to include her in the conversation, she will just stare them down

-You'd have to be the one to tell her you don't want to cuddle at the moment, she'd act annoyed and grumble about it, but ultimately respect your wishes

--she just really enjoys holding you, it makes her feel like your protector :)

Electra

-While they're more reserved in public, in private they're as affectionate as can be!

-Always has to be touching you in some way when it's just you two, or when the only ones around are their components, so they're always happy to cuddle 

-While they don't mind being the little spoon, they prefer to be the big spoon - they enjoy holding you a lot, it makes them feel important. It also shows them that you have a certain level of trust in them :) 

-I don't think they're the type to fall asleep while cuddling, they much prefer to give their attention to you; talking about nothing in specific, maybe discussing the newest gossip, simply relaxing in each others arms..

-Don't worry about falling asleep yourself, though! again, to them it simply shows how much trust you have in them! They also adore how peaceful you look asleep - simply adorable in their opinion

-They'd admire your sleeping form, perhaps run a hand through your hair.. and while they won't fall asleep themself, they'll use the moment to relax a bit, closing their eyes and just enjoying the peace and quiet - which seems to be something very rare in this chaos of a yard

-Starlight forbid someone tries to wake you up, though. They already hate it when others interrupt you two - but if they might wake you? Nothing a small electric shock, of varying strength depending on who it is, and a mean glare, can't fix though 

-The only time they'll fall asleep while cuddling, is if you're cuddling at night, and even then they're probably awake before you. Chances are, you won't ever see them sleep, unless you got a very messed up sleep schedule or get up before the crack of dawn

-If you're okay with it, the components may occasionally join your little cuddle sessions! Usually after a especially rough day, could range from just one or two, to all of you creating a straight up cuddle pile. But if you want it to just be you and Electra, they completely respect that

-The amount of cuddles would increase in the winter - especially if you aren't a electric, and therefore naturally produce warmth! Electrics don't produce any heat, so the winter is even crueler to them, than it is already are to everyone else; and cuddling, especially somewhere cozy, just happens to be a very nice way to warm up :)

-If you're a steam engine, or in other words literally run on fire, they would just not let go of you in the winter

Dinah

-Literally the sweetest, will take any chance she can get to be affectionate with you! 

-Another one that doesn't care whether she is the little or the big spoon, though she is more used to being the little spoon

-I would recommend letting her, at least occasionally, be the big spoon, though! especially after a rough day, her hold is really comforting!

-But no matter how you two are cuddled up, it is always a really soft and sweet moment; you two are usually talking about whatever comes to mind - anything from a deep discussion about the state of the world, to planning your next date, nothings off the table :)

-While she claims not to have a favourite cuddle position, she adores it whenever you two are cuddled up on the couch, with a warm drink in hand, and her head on your shoulder. Bonus points if it's in the winter, and you two are quietly watching the snow fall

-doesn't really care if anyone walked in on you two cuddling, she's very open about her affection for you, and she would love it if you are two!

- She's the type to randomly just stare at you while cuddling, with nothing but love in her eyes - if you ask her why, she'll simply say that she's wondering how she got so lucky :)

-She would also randomly attack you with kisses - a bunch of small pecks wherever she can reach, before finishing with a final peck on the lips, and giggling about it; especially if you blush because of it, she loves making you blush!

-However, if you respond in kind she'll be redder than her hair! ;) 

-One of her dream dates would be the two of you watching stars together, while cuddling on a picnic blanket! Maybe you were watching the sunset together beforehand, maybe as a spontaneous idea.. all she really cares about is your time together 

-If you're a racer, she'll give you a hug before and after every race, that lasts long enough to might as well be considered cuddling! If you actually win a race, or even just place on the podium, she'll almost tackle you in the excitement! 

Rusty

- All you could ever wish for in the winter, and your worst nightmare in the summer

-Seriously, Steam engines run hot! it would be like sleeping right next to the fire place, or cuddling with a living, really warm, heating pad

-You'd probably end up still cuddling in the summer, because he loves being close to you, but it would be more you holding onto his arm - he wants to get closer, but understands you not wanting to overheat

-...also the first few nights, during your first summer together, he probably thought he did something to upset you, and that's why you don't want to cuddle, and you just couldn't stand that sad look of his 

-It's a whole different story during winter, though! You'd probably be the one holding onto him all day! and he wouldn't mind at all, were it not for work

-But the moment he's off the clock, he's speeding directly into your arms :)

- You guys would end up in all kinds of different cuddle positions, all your limbs usually tangled by the end of it

-I don't think he has a favourite position, nor does he care about being the big or the little spoon, he just wants to be as close as possible to you. He isn't exactly used to being this loved, so he'll take anything he can get

-continuing with my last point, when you guys cuddled for the first time, he was really awkward. He didn't know where to put his limbs, or how he should hold you - or if he should hold you at all!

-you'd have to have given him a lot of pointers, and take charge of getting comfortable for the first few times you guys cuddled. After he got the hang of it, though? Absolute cuddle bug, he never wants to let go of you

-If you cuddle at night, getting up in the morning would be really hard for him. Why should he get up and go to work, when he can stay here, cuddled up to you? He contemplates calling in sick every time

-Similarly, getting home from work and falling into your arms is like a reward, one that he looks forward to every day!

--He really just loves being close to you!

Hope you enjoyed!! I definitely enjoyed writing it :)

Feedback is always welcome, just pls be nice about it

Coco

This is one of the proudest women in the fucking world. So the fact that you’re behind her makes her even more insufferable in that regard. To the others that is, she cannot stop bragging- That’s just a plus for you though

She has no doubt in her mind that she’ll win together with you. You’re perfect for her after all so there is no way that you will slow her down in any way. You two will win together and you will celebrate with each other’s company in the end

This might be the first time riding with you, but the two of you know each other so well by now that she knows, not thinks, knows that it will go perfectly.

Then you have the others finding out about you being Coco’s S/O. They’re actually shocked, what do you mean Coco has a partner? And one she debuts during a race?!...

Actually that’s very in character for her and the moment the others realize this, they all just kind of. Deadpan? I think that’s the best way of saying it. They do congratulate you and her for being together.

The only one who has a problem with it is Bobo. Because how dare his sister not tell him that she has a partner?! He’ll act super obnoxious and dramatic about this fact. Coco just tells you to ignore him.

In the end Coco is just proud of you for being behind her and supporting her like that. She’s so immensely happy that she could show you off like that. Especially because she knows her partner will be the spotlight in every single room.

No, you cannot convince her otherwise. Don’t even try, she might just show you off anymore. Or do if you like being paraded around and the attention you’ll get.

Bobo

“FINALLY!” Yeah no he’s been waiting for a long time for the next race or in general the fact he could race with you behind him. He absolutely loves the fact he can show you off and is literally no better than Coco, even though he’d like to try and deny it often.

He’s making sure everything is absolutely perfect for this and the moment the announcement comes in calling out your and Bobo’s names, he takes all the applause and points at you to get the audience to clap for you as well.

Nobody is surprised that Bobo has a S/O because he literally will not shut the fuck up about you. He absolutely loves talking about you, showing you off, reminding everyone you exist that the moment he shows you off it’s kind of a long time coming.

Coco just greets you after the race, as she’s seen you before and has to hear Bobo constantly talk about you. Please save her, she’s sick and tired. She wishes to talk about literally anything else, even though you’re wonderful.

Either way he’s honestly at his best when you’re behind him, easily swerving and going through the motions of the race. Before you know it, it’s the end of the race and the two of you did amazing as expected.

He will shower you in attention afterwards and is just so happy that you would race with him. Careful though if you’re not much of a racer, he’ll just kind of look at you with batting eyelashes until you’re ready to do it again as he loves racing with you.

Bobo would never push you into doing what you don’t want to do, but he is a bit of a whiny baby about it, trust me. 

Espresso

Will absolutely attack you in kisses the moment you want to race together with him. Oh he would be so incredibly happy and honored and he could just eat you, you’re so cute.

You’d think he’d not be able to be more extravagant with his acts of love and such things like that, and yet here he is making himself shine even more than he usually does, just to look perfect for you when he races with you

Please ask him to do your makeup for the race, trust me he’ll love it so much. He’ll make sure to put extra details in there to make you so beautiful that you’ll definitely take the breath of the audience away.

At this point the competition needs sunglasses with how shiny and bright the two of you are. Which honestly would work in your favor so don’t change anything no matter what anyone says.

I will say that I feel Electra in the background would be so offended that you two are more shiny than his LEDs and like that’s funny so continue to rub it in, it’ll be funny.

With Espresso people finding out about the relationship is the same exact thing as with Bobo: Nobody is surprised. Like at all. He constantly gushes about your beauty and your shared interests and how cute you are when talking about interests he doesn’t understand for a moment.

Doesn’t stop him from continuing to show you off, his talks about you now finally being able to be viewed by every and all trains in the yard as well as the audience. He’s so proud to call you his and he’ll continue to show it off.

Ruhrgold

Super honored, but does give you a bit of a warning with how dangerous it is to race. Especially after last year when he almost was thrown off the railing by Greaseball and absolutely beaten, he’s very hesitant to let his S/O do anything honestly.

After a lot of convincing and ensuring that you’ll be okay, he does agree in the end. He does love the idea of having you behind him, it makes his day even. Be prepared to be very protected though, because he won’t let anyone touch you before, during and after the race. 

People are actually quite shocked about the fact that Ruhrgold has a partner. Everyone would just be surprised as he does seem the one to be open enough to share he has one, but honestly it would just be things slipping his mind as other things are more important to talk about at that moment or other understandable reasons.

Honestly they’d love to meet you though! I think it’s the only proper introduction you’re going to get in this line up honestly. He introduces you to all the engines, kind of blocking you still in case someone thinks they can snatch you away cough GREASEBALL AND ELECTRA COUGH COUGH. 

In the end though he enjoys the race with you. After realizing that you won’t just go down by a little hit he feels a lot better and does his best with you behind him. He’s incredibly proud of you and although he won’t know how to properly say it, he’ll definitely show you how proud he is!

Manga

Very honored that you would want to ride with him. The moment he asked he played it cool, but you could see a spark in his eyes light up as he agreed to race with you.

Will be extremely humble about it and honestly would talk to you about how you would like to be treated during all of this. Would you just like to join him behind him and enjoy the moment like the normal races go? Would you like him to go a bit out of his way to show you off?

The moment the two of you come out, he’ll stick to what you two discussed. He’s polite like that. Although you can practically see him beaming for you to be behind him as the two of you get announced. 

I don’t think people are surprised by the fact that he is together with someone. Manga is pretty mysterious and so people don’t know much about his private life, because of this they know to not expect anything, but also not to cross anything off.

Either way everyone is rather nice to you. Outside of the race that is, we all know how crazy the races can get… and do get.

Manga truly enjoys racing together with you and is just happy that you two participated. As long as you two are safe and have fun, that’s all he really cares about. Obviously he’ll do his best, but he won’t throw a tantrum if he loses. 

He’s just happy he didn’t crash this time-

Turnov

Honestly a bit unsure, after all if you look at just how crazy and intense the races are, you’d understand why he wouldn’t be too happy to just thrust you into that position. After all, if you're a threat, people will want to get rid of you.

After a bit of back and forth he does eventually cave and let you race behind him. Be warned though, if someone even slightly touches you he’s throwing hands. This man will fight for your honor, do not test him.

Honestly I think people would be surprised to see him together with someone. He isn’t really the person to be showing off, so for him to like let the entire world see his partner behind him in the race? It’s shocking to say the least.

The two of you absolutely kill it in the race. As you two are completely in sync as well as a power couple. You won’t let people get in cheap shots and Turnov would rather crash than let anybody touch you.

In the end he shows you off a bit, proud of you. After that he needs to recharge though, instead of celebrating he’ll grab you and have a night in. Enjoying your company.

He’s really sweet, but rather quiet when it comes to post race stuff. He needs to regain his energy and so he makes sure to just take it easy with you so he can properly celebrate with you.

Brexit 

Man’s so happy that he can finally race and he gets to race with you? Double win for him. After all the last time he tried to race he kind of had to drop out so the fact he gets to actually do this now.

Oh how he’ll talk non stop about how he’s super excited to race with you. It’s just so thrilling, the races, with other worthy opponents and with you behind him. He can picture it so clearly already.

The moment the race is on and the two of you get announced I feel most engines are rather shocked at the sight of Brexit together with anyone, but they get over it quickly as they decide to just focus on the race.

Both of you work together rather perfectly and smoothly, but due to the way the race goes you guys don’t particularly win. 

Brexit does not really give a shit though, he was just happy to have raced with you. Normally he cares a lot more about winning and yet he can’t seem to give himself a shit when he’s with you.

He celebrates the race with you either way, winning or losing. He’s just happy you’ve had your first race together and can’t be more proud of you and himself. Expect him to spoil you a bit after everything

Electra

It wasn’t a given that you were going to race with them?- Well. Eh. You’re racing with him, I don’t think you have much of a choice with this diva.

She wants to win, but also looks pretty. You’re her partner so you’d work perfectly with them and you’re fucking eye candy come on you’re racing with him, get your ass in gear.

The first time officially racing with them is still something rather special though. So he makes sure to be extra shiny and such to make sure you are completely pampered before the first race you two will go into together.

Not going to lie the components really pamper you as well and it’s almost like you’re going to prom more than going to your first race with Electra, not that you’re complaining though.

The moment you step out together with them the only shock that comes to everyone, is how Electra pulled another component out of his ass- They truly think you’re one of the components at first and that he had you be home for some reason.

Electra is almost offended, but then again the idea of you as his component rings absolutely right in her ears. Either way she didn’t bother with the other engines and is just set on winning.

The race is everything he wants it to be. Both flashy and fast. Electra is absolutely happy with the end of it and decides to immediately pull his entourage behind him together with you to celebrate. He doesn’t even bother with interviews this time, aren’t you a lucky carriage? 

Greaseball

Oh you know that he would love for you to be behind him while he races. I feel if you’re the one to ask he’d like practically spit out anything he was drinking and then try to keep it cool.

Either way he’d be like practically waiting for you to race behind him. We all know how much he likes showing off his partners. Especially in something as flashy as the races. 

Why didn’t he ask himself? Well he has a pride and reputation to uphold and since he’s seen as the whole heartbreaker he waited for you to ask. As well as he totally didn’t want to accidentally force you- what Greaseball being thoughtful? Unheard of.

Either way he’s happy to finally have you behind him for the race. He’d probably be even more pleased if you end up matching colors with him, oh he’d be almost on his knees. Figuratively of course, can’t have people thinking he’s a simp.

As for people finding out. People are honestly really baffled. Everyone was thinking that he was dating Dinah- Since when? What? Hah? They’re confused to say the least. A shock factor that might help in the race.

Then for Greaseball he’s extremely proud to be showing off as the one behind him in the race. Like look at his amazing partner, they look so amazing and you’re gonna look even better when he wins the race.

After the race he decides to spin you around while picking you up and carry you to a celebration together. The two of you deserved it and nobody will tell him otherwise.

Rusty

He’d be so excited and happy! He’s someone’s first pick? Oh he’s so happy, he lets out a few whistles of happiness and says that he won’t let you down. He’s not about to show that you shouldn’t race with him again, he’s going to show you made the right choice.

He’ll even try to shine himself up as much as he can so you just have a partner you can be proud of being behind. What he doesn’t realize is that you’d love him either way, he doesn’t have to do good in the race for you to enjoy yourself.

When you come out with him I think people would actually be a lot more respectful due to the last race, so they won’t like to harass you for being with a rusty steamer. You can't help to see some side glances and hear some under their breath comments, you don’t pay attention to them though.

Honestly with you behind him I think Rusty kind of crushes the competition, he’s just so set on proving to you he’s good to race behind, as well as so happy that you are behind him. In the end he’s just like “See? Told you that you wouldn’t regret your decision.”

Just hit him with a “I would’ve never regretted it, even if we lost Rusty.” And he’d be all blushy and cute. He’ll definitely celebrate his win with you and doesn’t really care for all the official victory laps and such things like that. 

Electra

A little conflicted at first….

I mean she’s into this tiny thing? How will that even work? How are you going to give her the attention and affection she deserves?

Honestly for this entire thing I’m going to picture you as a mechanic. So you’re close with all of the engines and components, especially since you expertise in the repair and such of electric trains.

That’s how Electra realizes, you can give him everything he wants. You know him very well through all of this, yes he has Wrench, but since there are official check ups (much to Wrench’s dismay) you do get to know him very well.

In the end he’s the one that confesses to you and such. You’re a bit surprised due to him being a giant train, but hey he’s hot as fuck so you say okay and you just kind of deal with him using you as a small stuffed animal.

Just because you’re so small to them, that doesn’t mean that you will manage to get away from their affections. They’ll give you just as much as the rest, even if it’s a bit difficult for them.

Wrench

Surprised at herself that she fell for a human, then again the way you work makes her kind of just stare longingly. She is surprised and then notes she shouldn’t be surprised.

Either way would keep quiet about it for a very long time, after all Wrench doesn’t really know how to go about this. She doesn’t know if you’re into huge anthropomorphic trains. 

As well is not the person to ask you for things like that, because it’s none of her business and also there’s no way to subtly do that really. Eventually to ‘get rid of her feelings’ she decides to just throw it out.

And then you end up actually accepting her feelings??? Okay not what she was expecting, but she is certainly not complaining about it. It’s kind of a learning curve for her as she has no idea where to begin with a human.

But Wrench is notorious for being a fast learner. She does actually pick up normal nurse stuff as well so she can properly take care of you as well as the machines that she’s taught to care for.

Just like the rest, her first priority is your health and so by learning about the human body, she might not easily be able to patch you up since it would be like patching something up on a doll. She still manages to figure out how she can help you.

Killerwatt

Really confused. He’s already bad at feelings and now he has feelings for a human. Someone so squishy and… vulnerable. Nevermind he understands now, he just has this big feeling to protect you and he likes feeling useful, so it’s not that much of a surprise 

He doesn’t really know what to do with himself though. Should he confess? That just seems like a dumb idea, somehow. He doesn’t know how to explain it, but he just doesn’t know what exactly to do.

I think he will not confess to you, I think you’re the one that has to take that initiative. Otherwise neither of you will most likely get together, but here you are pouring your feelings out to this giant security truck.

He is positively shocked that you would like him like that. Although it was welcome.

From then on he’s extremely protective over you. So just imagine someone trying to go up against you and then this giant anthropomorphic train just suddenly stands behind you, just towering over you and this person, shadowing the both of you.

You get insulted? Oh look a colossal is here to beat their ass. That’s crazy.

Obviously it isn't lethal in it, but he takes his job extremely seriously. It’s about you after all. It’s his entire world. 

Volta

She’s always found humans fascinating. They’ve made things like trains and machines with feelings like them and yet they are so…. dumb…? Is that the world for it?

Either way it’s not really a surprise that she takes interest in this human. After all it’s one of the experts on electric trains and they were charming, had an interesting personality as well as their interests. She couldn’t help herself, they had to get to know this caring human.

And to say it simply, she did. She got closer to you and fell for you hard.

He’s kind of annoyed just how easy you made it seem for someone like him to fall for someone, but he guesses he can’t fully complain as it was his own fault getting close to someone so attractive to him.

They’ll deny it for a while though, like a long while. Eventually they’ll realize that this crush isn’t easily shaken and since you’re a human and probably don't think of getting a crush on a train, he’ll just…. get rid of the feelings.

That’s when you actually decide to accept his feelings, which just makes her confused and look at you with a look of disbelief. 

Very quickly recovers though, because she scored you as a partner? Good enough for her. She hates feelings and crushes so the fact that’s at least over and can devote herself to you without it feeling weird somehow is perfect for her.

God she hates crushes, you’re hers now though <3 And you can’t do much to make her change her mind. 

Joule

Oh this girl would be so into this. Usually she goes for impressive big engines or people that have big personalities and stuff. Her go to in types are usually big and loud or something similar.

That is unless she gets to know someone and even though they’re quiet they’re impressive. And then she meets you and you’re just… so small. Such a lil guy, hi there baby <3

Yeah she doesn’t take you seriously at first, like at all. You’re just so little, you might be good at what you do and she won’t minimize that, but you’re just a little squish, what are you going to do if a big bad engine gets angry once?

And then she once sees you practically wrangle Electra to the mechanic table when they’re once having a temper tantrum with like a lasso almost, just full cowboy style and she- ehm immediately falls in love? Yea.

She falls kind of really hard. Such a small little thing and yet so much spice and strength in a way. Maybe with the help of machines sure, but you are strong. It makes her gush and all.

Unlike the rest though this girl is extremely impulsive and would just almost immediately confess to you, telling you her feelings and not giving a shit if anyone looks weird about it.

Absolutely overjoyed when you say yes and absolutely loves giving you affection even if she has to be reminded to be careful with you sometimes.

Also I hope you’re ready constantly being carried either on her shoulder or in between her tits. That shit is comfortable, it's like a big pillow. Also yall know that sound of “What’s in your pocket?” “Oh it’s Jake :)” that’s you and Joule 

Null

Honestly I feel Null would be one of the ones that would be actually kind of shamelessly flirting with you. He really doesn’t give a shit if you’re a human, train or plane for what he gives a shit about. 

She’s interested in you and so she’s going to show it, no matter how small you are in comparison, if anything it makes it better for her. Honestly just imagine her laying on her stomach with her legs kicking behind her with a smirk as she listens to you prattle on about your knowledge on certain things.

Honestly you learn to love their company and grow to crave it whenever they’re gone. Eventually the two of you are together and it kind of slips from his lips. They almost immediately slap a hand over their mouth and start rattling off to save themself, but it was too late.

With a dazzling smile you accepted their feelings and the two of you started dating.

Don’t think that just because you’re a human that they will expect any less attention and affection from you than normal. Oh no he’s going to want all of it like always, no matter how busy you are with work.

At least he’s somewhat of a nice distraction sometimes and hey look at the bright side sometimes he actually shuts up while you do your work! It’s a miracle and a blessing all in one :D 

Krupp

Would actually be so terrified that he’ll accidentally kill you.

Like he gets a crush on you rather easily and then the moment it sinks in he just pushes it far far faaaar away where you’ll never be able to see it again, because if you two are in a relationship he could misstep and it’d be the end of you. 

It wouldn’t be that easy to do it, but he has a danger-ridden mind. Everything that is too much of a certain percentage of danger he won’t allow, he’s an armaments truck after all.

After a bit of coaxing from the others though, he manages to actually confess to you. It’s super stiff and still very unsure, but you welcome him with open arms. 

Honestly in the beginning to make him comfortable about it, you jokingly started wearing a cat bell on your belt or on a choker, so he can hear you coming and be cautious. Ironically this helped a lot to lessen his worries.

As well as everytime he now hears the little ring of bells he’ll get super excited and happy as he thinks of you or that you’re near. The rest have teased him endlessly when they see the demeanor change when they’re out and it was some other set of little bells.

You don’t see it easily, but he’s super in love with you and will absolutely protect you till the end. Also I just imagine you sometimes hiding under his hat to do some work or hide from coworkers. I think it’s super cute :] 

Purse

Would be under the firm belief that even though he has a huge crush he’ll never admit it to you. That it will never work out, he’s a train, you’re a human, blah blah blah. Just think of every possible excuse you can think of for this and he’ll use it. 

Although he does like the fact that he’s bigger. It’s rather funny bc in my head this dumbass sounds like Veneer and so I imagine him doing the whole “I don’t want to kill the little guy.” And so that cracks me up-

Moving on though- 

Is one of the most stubborn about not confessing. Honestly you would have to do it and then like assure you want him about 50 more times, because yes you know that he’s a large anthro train, but you don’t care he’s fucking hot. 

Eventually gives it a try and realizes just how much he doesn’t mind the difference. Sure it’s a bit of a learning curve, but it’s almost as if two people from different cultures meet each other. 

He teaches you about the races they do and what’s often seen as normal in train culture and you share your own culture’s rules that you practically abide by or don’t in that regard.
