FrancexReader: Le lapin et le loup (fluffy angst)

“Mm.” Francis rolled over in the bed and opened his eyes to find her face only a few millimeters from his. And even in his half-asleep haze, his first thought was: si belle. With the noon light streaming through her lacy curtains, lighting up the room, she looked luminous—almost as though fireflies were dancing on her skin. Her pink lips were parted just slightly, letting out small puffs of air as she breathed slowly, still in a deep slumber. It was a Saturday afternoon, the perfect time to laze around and bask in the warm summer weather. They’d had plans today, he recalled, to have a picnic at the park, but he felt

Male!BelarusxReader: Necessities Part 2.1

It had been a month and a half since she’d gotten out of the hospital after the horrific car accident that had left her in a coma for three weeks. At first, Nikolai had smothered her, constantly hovering around her and wheeling her around the apartment. He’d cooked for her, helped her shower, brushed her hair—from the biggest to the littlest tasks, he’d done them all. And she’d been grateful, thanking him every night for his kindness before falling asleep in his arms. For that month and a half, in spite of her injuries and suffering, Nikolai had felt that life was perfect. Last week, however, she’d stopped

CanadaxReader: Nothing's Wrong

The house was quiet. The curtains were pulled back so that a sliver of moonlight streamed through the window and onto the bedroom floor, as if it were pointing in that specific direction. Matthew glanced at it, momentarily intrigued, before turning his attention to the girl who was fast asleep in his arms. Without thinking, he mouthed her name, feeling the syllables form between his tongue and teeth. The contact was soothing—familiar somehow in a comforting way. The wisp of air that filled his throat as he breathed out with his whisper was warm. Yet a part of him couldn’t shake off the feeling that there was something wrong with

Male!BelarusxReader: Necessities Omake

Nikolai woke to find his cheek pressed against white sheets that smelled of citrus, realizing with a start that he must have fallen asleep while watching over his girlfriend in the hospital. Feeling a little disoriented and groggy, he blinked a few times before raising his head to look around, squinting against the sunlight streaming in between the curtains. Outside, the bustle of people and traffic drifted in from the half-open window, and in the background, the machine that was hooked up to his girlfriend beeped every few minutes, rhythmic in a comforting way. He stifled a yawn, stretching his arms over his head, and then turned his attenti

FrancexReader: Meaning

*Translations are in the artist's comments! She couldn't tell if he was being serious, or if he was simply messing around with her, as he often did. His eyes had a desperate glint, his lips were pulled into a nervous line—but then, he'd always been good at acting in various ways to get what he wanted, though the last thing she'd expected him to feign was insomnia. "Come on, Francis," she said, giving him a doubtful look. She folded her arms across her chest and studied his anxious expression, trying to gauge its genuineness. "You're not really having trouble falling asleep, are you? Don't you usually sleep like a log?" "J'ai eu un cauchema

CanadaxReader: Aren't We All

He ran his fingers through his pale blonde hair and waited impatiently for her reply. Deep down, he wanted to grab her by the shoulders and shake her—to shake some sense into her, maybe—but he wasn't that kind of person, and so he couldn't, and didn't. Instead, he stood still, trying to keep the agitation out of his expression and the pain out of his eyes, all the while chewing on his lip so hard he could taste metal. He'd never wanted anything so badly, had never fought with Alfred over anything growing up—had always thought of himself as a sharer, a man of compromise and sacrifice, but now, he wasn't so sure anymore. He w

Male!BelarusxReader: Necessities Part 1

She was supposed to be home at six sharp; it was now ten after. Nikolai's calm expression belied the panic that was starting to build up inside his chest, and he paced the apartment, pausing occasionally to glance at the clock on the wall. She was never late. At least, not without telling him first. She knew how much it made him worry when he didn't know where she was. She knew it tore him apart, led him to imagine all of the worst-case scenarios—accident, injury, kidnapping—which then led to a strange wrenching pain somewhere deep inside of him. He'd always been an anxious person, despite his aloof appearance. The first and only

CanadaxDepressed!Reader: Close Your Eyes

"It's morning," he tells you, as if it isn't obvious enough with the sunlight streaming in through the curtains, and the birds chirping so loudly they could wake the dead. You keep your eyes closed, focusing on the dark and hoping you might fall asleep again. "I don't want to move." "It's almost seven. You're going to be late." He stands, the bed creaking under the shift in weight, and his footsteps thud away. You hear him shuffling around for a minute before coming back to sit down on the edge of the bed. He takes your face in his hands and plants a soft kiss on your cheek. "Come on. Let's go." You shake your head slowly. "I can't." It ta

GermanyxReader: Puppy Love

In the middle of the night, you woke to the sound of aggravated barking, each yip and growl piercing the silence. The neighbourhood strays were fighting again, probably over a scrap bone or something. Beside you, Ludwig stirred, groaning quietly before letting out a string of curses in his native tongue. "Vhat is zat?" he grumbled, turning towards you. In the dark, you couldn't see his face, but you could bet his sleepy expression was cute. "Ah, you don't know." This was the first time he'd spent the night at your place. "Our neighbourhood has some stray dogs, and they're always messing around with each other." The barking quieted, and the

Male!BelarusxReader Part Two--will it ever happen?

0 min read

I've been so uninspired lately. A lot of people have been asking for a Part Two to my Male!BelarusxReader: Necessities fic (some since I first submitted it more than half a year ago OTL)...and I thought I should try to get on that before I start working irl again. SO. A question to my readers: what would YOU like to see happen in Part Two? All ideas welcome--please keep them short and concise. Thanks, as always, for reading! :'))

After months of inactivity, I'm back. Sort of. I have to work this summer OTL. Anyways, I just wanted to say that I can't believe I'm going off to university this year. I had the most difficult time choosing between business and education as areas of study, because of factors such as prestige, job prospects, and reputation amongst family and friends (which matters to me)...and I spent a week agonizing over McGill Desautel's or Queen's Concurrent Education. I ultimately went with the latter. :< The market for teachers is so terribly tough right now, but education is something I care about. I hope I made the right choice. I also hope I'll ha

//peeks out from between fingers. So...it may seem like I vanished off the face of the earth, but actually, I've just been busy with exams, university applications, scholarship applications, etcetcetc. I thought I'd be done with these things by the end of last year, but apparently not. Stressstressstressssss. Actually, my first acceptance came in the mail today. I've mixed feelings towards it because it's only my backup school...but at least I won't have to worry about not getting into any universities at all. Anyway, I wanted to say sorry to all of the people I have yet to reply to (namely, ~CardinalDesertFox (https://www.deviantart.com/cardinaldesertfox) ) OTL. I'm so sorry for
