Malleus.

Really, that was all you had to say. Malleus.

An interesting character, truly. One that you would never see in this position, begging for your time and attention in all that he did. Even if it wasn't obvious to others, once you saw those mannerisms, there was no way to ignore them.

"My love, won't you please just stay with me?"

It's with a sigh that you fix your companion a straight look, absolutely done with him. "Malleus... I just need to go switch the laundry. It'll be five minutes at most. Can you not just wait?"

He seems to pout at that, his eyes gaining a glossy sheen as if he would cry if you left.

"Dear child of man, don't you know that even one moment away from your presence turns into thousands for me? My soul can not bare being parted from you, lest I fall into sickness with the only cure being your company. You complete me, my darling treasure, if only you could see that..."

You roll your eyes before you can stop yourself, scoffing and turning away from him without a second thought.

"Stop being dramatic before I tell Sebek you're here." You start to walk away, not even pausing when you hear Malleus start to overdramatically sniffle, trying to get you to come back.

His constant pleading for your attention was cute at one point but now it was just annoying - thankfully, you were able to tune it out easily with time.

Especially when you would be back with him in mere moments - his flowery language turning from sweet to ridiculous by now.

october writing prompt #20 - kiss + flowers

character: deuce spade, twisted wonderland

contains: fluff, reader referred to in second person pov, gender neutral reader

Okay, so maybe Deuce couldn't say that he was the best when it came to showing his appreciation for you. He tried though, he really did.

It had seemed like a good idea to get flowers for you - it's what everyone did in the movies, wasn't it? But standing on the doorstep to Ramshackle now, he wasn't quite sure. What if you didn't like them? What if you were allergic?

He wasn't able to get the chance to back out, though, when the door had suddenly swung open and you were right there. Able to see his obvious embarrassment even as he tried to hide the flowers behind his back like they wouldn't stick out.

After a moment of awkward silence, and avoiding your gaze, you broke the silence and giggled.

That was all it took for him to turn red and start rambling about how it wasn't what it looked like, how he was just about to leave, how the whole thing had been a stupid idea - anything to excuse himself.

You dragged him in before he could say anything else, all smiles as you wrapped your arms around him. "This is so cute! I love these - how did you know?"

"Well- uh, I didn't, but I thought maybe? But then I wasn't sure if you'd like them and, um..." Deuce trails off from there, getting wrapped up in hugging you and letting himself finally relax a bit. "...I'm glad you like them."

You hum your agreement, and before he can say anything else, he's getting a kiss on the cheek and tensing up all over again as his face burned.

Dandelions

Intentions... With "Dandelions" by Ruth B.

Ft. Ruggie Bucchi and my OC, Kyōki Kaitekina

Where Ruggie want's to take the one he's fallen in love with someplace special, despite his weak knees

"So...?" they played with the rings on their fingers nervously, he had requested them to meet him alone and they had to make Jack watch him since he was the only other one available on such short notice, but the feline-like monster managed to slip away and join them anyway

"Y-You'll see" he wound up stammering, trying to keep his heartrate steady but the way they just existed less than 6 feet from him made him lightheaded 

They had slapped on a beautiful pair of lace-trimmed shorts and an o-ring crop top they originally wore a hoodie on top but had to leave it with Grim so he wouldn't be so anxious (which was then later left with Jack as he escaped, the poor wolf), and a nice pair of grey combat boots to finish it off, their goddess braids black but shining in the light, the blue-green highlights being accentuated 

And let's not forget their scent, Seven, they gave off such a mesmerizing scent he could sit there and bask in it forever 

They quirked their brow when he flushed red again out of nowhere, slightly concerned, but didn't say a word

Eventually, after about another five minutes of seemingly random turns, the two reached a wide open field of dandelions. 

They took on the view of white, green, and yellow, and carefully picked a few up, starting up flower crowns 

"Galleta" They looked up at his nervously standing self with a smile "come here, this one's for you"

"F-F-F...????" He couldn't say anything, just stared at the ground near their feet

"Of course!" They laughed, gently grabbing his hand and dragging him down to sit, placing the flower crown on his head with a proud grin on their face "I've never made a flower crown before, so I'm really happy to get to try it! Though I've never even seen anyone make one either... I think it turned out well?"

He felt the lopsided but sturdy crown of bright yellow dandelions resting on his head, carefully avoiding his ears even though it looked like it was close to falling apart 

"Yeah..." He blushed red, though he found himself shifting slightly closer despite his whole nervous system telling him to run away or they'd devour him

But, hey, what's so bad in being devoured by someone this hot?

After a few more flower crowns, they made some more for Ruggie and Grim, saving a few strong looking ones for Ortho to keep marked and placed a little point on them so they'd remember to pick

"Y'know, this reminds me of that song" Grim commented, and Ruggie couldn't help the nasty feeling of jealousy that fizzled up inside of him each time he saw Grim in their laps or resting in their chest 

How does it feel to be living my dream, damned Raccoon? Tch... he'd always think, biting his lip

"Oh yeah!" They smiled, quickly fishing out their modified phone and scrolling through some audio files 

Not long after, a few high piano keys were struck, and his ears perked up, listening to it intently

But he could not prepare his heart for the next things to happen

They started to sing. It was very deep, coming from the gut, but easily took a higher pitch when they wanted

"Maybe it's the way you say my name" They began, picking up another few dandelions "Maybe it's the way you play your game"

Game...? He stared at their calloused hands and how with every twist, they improved on the flower jewelry they were making Who are they talking about?

"But it's so good, I've never known anybody like you"  even though their words were still a whisper, he heard every one, and grew increasingly nervous at who they could possible be directing this song at "But it's so good, I've never dreamed of nobody like you"

Grim purred happily and rubbed his head against their chest, one he would give almost anything to lay on comfortably while they pet him like they did Grim

"And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime" his breath hitched, mind running millions of miles a second when he heard the L word leave their lips, and the whimsical but attractive look they gave him from under their undeniably hot lashes "And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine"

They smiled, placing their completed and tremendously improved flower crown and necklace around him, leaning back on the ground slightly as they looked at the white tufts around them 

" 'Cause I'm in a field of dandelions, Wishing on every one that you'll be mine, mine" they nodded to the beat, their lower and deeper vocals mixing well with the singers higher and airy tones "And I see forever in your eyes, I feel okay when I see you smile, smile"

I... Are they talking... about me? He gaped, hands trembling as he watched them pick one up and blow it in the air after a subtle pause 

"Wishing on dandelions all of the time, Praying to God that one day you'll be mine" they all watched as the seeds followed the path of the breeze and Grim hopped off, chasing after them "Wishing on dandelions all of the time, all of the time..."

They stood up, doing a little dance as they swayed, reminiscent of the tall grass and flowers, giggling to themselves as they turned to Ruggie, directing their lines to him

"I think that you are the one for me, 'Cause it gets so hard to breathe" they twirled, feet light but prominent as they moved "When you're looking at me, I've never felt so alive and free~ When you're looking at me, I've never felt so happy"

He stared, wide but loving eyes as they laughed at one of their missteps, holding their hand out to him as the song played lowly in the background

their next words made him feel like he was floating, in a blissful dream

"Ruggie...And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime Dance with me...And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine " They smiled cheekily, patiently waiting for a reaction from him

and it was as if the universe was pushing this all to happen, as the music suddenly became louder, and a whole flurry of dandelion seeds exploded from behind him, the breeze pushing them towards their outstretched hand

He'd be a fool to reject.

And on they went for that evening, slow dancing as Grim messed around with the flowers and insects 

It was then that he made up his mind fully; He was utterly in-love with them and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with them

Mmmmm boy had me shivering in my boots

Let me be basic for once in my life, #2, Malleus :D

yeah ok fine you deserve it. this is your one allotted malleus request this month.

"I was made to love you."

Malleus' gaze is intense, piercing right through you, and you can't help the slight frown that shows at his words.

"What... do you mean by that?"

He sighs, as if he expected it to be obvious, and he steps into your space even when you move back. "My dear, dear child of man... How could you not know?"

"I mean that all of my world, turns only for you. You are the one that I wake for, and the one I wish to lay with as the moon hangs in the sky. There is nothing that I would not do for your affections, and nothing I would not do if you simply gave the word. You, dearest, are all that my life revolves around."

When you flush and start to protest such sweet words being thrown your way, he only shakes his head, and you're forced to share even more of your personal space when Malleus leans in, staring you straight in the eye with a look you haven't seen from him before.

It's... distracting, to say the least.

The fire in his eyes looks like it would consume you, if you gave him the chance. Like if you weren't careful, you could just as easily be trapped in this mad love. If you just succumbed to him, even once.

"Do you understand, my love?"

"You are all that I am, and just as easily, I would love to become all you are... to become irrevocably in love, tied together as one whole and strangers to the world beyond each other. Is it not a tempting thought?"

"Are you really so oblivious?"

It's with a scoff and a glower that Leona regards you, rolling his eyes when he sees no change in your doe-eyed expression.

"Seriously? Stupid herbivore..." He sighs, even as he softens slightly, roughly pushing your head down as he ruffles your hair. "You've got no business looking to anyone else when you have me."

"Huh?" You question, oblivious to what the lion was talking about. "What do you mean, looking to anyone else?"

"I mean, quit gettin' other guys to help you out. Just ask me."

If you didn't know any better, you'd think Leona to be blushing, and you smile a little. Of course he would be the kind to get jealous - you don't know how you didn't guess it.

It wasn't like you had done much - just asked Ruggie to help you out with an assignment dealing with linguistics as you knew it was his forte. You hadn't thought anything of it, but apparently Leona saw it as a statement of some kind.

"Awe, is the kitty getting jealous?"

"Tch." You don't expect him to huff and pull you in close, clinging onto you with a scowl. "And what about it? You're my herbivore. Ain't no reason for you to put your attention on anybody else."

You can feel him smirk against you when you don't say anything else, and you know that he thinks this means he won this little argument.
