Riri x fem reader

3k words <3

FUCK. see, you've recently been struggling because some loser company figured out that you're even more of a loser than them because your love life is drier than the Sahara desert. they took great offence because they want to be the biggest losers so they sent someone to fix it.

more like some thing... this baked bean looking creature with a witch hat and a stick with a sparkly star on top which you presumed was a wand was just floating in front of your face with a little smile on its face.

"Riri.... what do you want?...." you groaned out, turning to flop on your bed, muffling your words with a pillow.

this little fuc- i mean shi- AHEM i mean wizard was assigned to you of all people to help you find a romantic partner, a lover, a mate, whatever you want to call it, this thing was trying to get you one.

despite trying their hardest, you managed to make all the "possible" love interests Riri set up for you to get your life in gear to actually either friendzone you and you not giving a shit or lose feelings fast because you purposefully changed your personality and looks to not suit their tastes.

it might be a sociopathic and manipulative move but you don't want to get into romance. you've got a handful of extremely close friends and you've bore witness to the heartbreak just one person can do to someone. just watching it break someone like how it broke them...

yeah. you said fuck that.

Your friends always tell you how wonderful love is; in retrospect, you have had crushes before. but you fizzed them away, concluding it to only be attraction or stupid teenage hormones.

we're going to completely ignore the fact you bully the shit out of Riri on the basis of whenever you saw them, watching them suffer as their efforts are in vain. but you hate to see them sad for some gut-hurling and wrenching reason, you usually make them a little something. YES YES, I KNOW why the fuck would you make something for a baked bean-shaped magic dildo-looking wizard? well, it just felt right.

when you saw Riri sitting on the edge of your desk with their head down, swinging their feet; you swore you saw a teeny tiny mushroom trying to peek out of its hat, you actually felt sorry for them.

here's the thing. you knew Ansu very closely, you played games with her as a kid, still dabble now and again but Ansu always asks you to make cat stuff for her. specifically clothes.

you searched some tutorials online and made these clothes with great skill and somehow good quality. your father inherited a very very high quality, multipurpose sewing machine that was great at its job.

making Riri something couldn't be too hard, right?

you were actually working on it days ago but you made something similar to a cat bed, it was pastel yellow and pink, it had a fluffy base and stuffed with memory foam, you made this shit good.

wanna know why you were so proud of yourself? you made a detachable dome that could be buttoned on! it even had a button-up door! if Riri wanted privacy while taking a cat nap!

thinking of it made you let out an accidental "awweee" which made Riri turn to face you, their legs still swinging and a crocodile tear in their eye, a single one fell making you let out a snort.

"HEY! You need to stop making this so difficult! You know you're the reason I'm in trouble at work! right?! *ugly sob* I'm gonna get so fired!" they flopped down backward onto the wooden desk with a slam, you winced at the sound, showing concern. a red bump was forming on the back of their head from that one.

as they were wallowing in pity, you decided to get your project out of the box you hid it in. Riri was rolling around on the desk at this point, whinging and whining about how, in a politer term, dealing with your love life was bullshit. you kinda agreed but you softly placed the small bed that was about the size of both your hands cupped together in the corner of the desk, where the lights were the softest.

walking to where Riri was laying down, hopelessly looking at the ceiling with a miserable expression, you crouched down to be face to face with them.

"i have a 'I'm sorry for being such a fuck up' gift? will that make you feel better?"

the way they sat up so fast and stared at you with sparkles in their eyes was gobsmacking. they went from crying to jumping up and down on your desk like an excited little puppy. cute.

"PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE-" was all you heard which made you want to pave your head in but you just sighed, pinching the top of their hat and lifting it off their head.

"promise to trust me though? And no flying or Peter panning away?" you said with a stern look, still trying to let them know they didn't have to if they didn't want to.

the sweat dropped at this, thinking it was a bit weird to ask but robotically nodded, "I guess?- AH!-" You scooped your hands under Riri who was surprisingly a warm little thing that felt soft and squishy.

they just accepted their fate at this point as they relaxed in your warm hand, they felt almost as soft as you thought Riri felt, you couldn't see because they're yellow but they were blushing in their wizard way.

you started to walk to the gift and asked them to close their eyes, they complied with little hesitance, usually they're used to getting a good beating from ansu in these types of situations but they for some reason felt so much trust in you.

your warm hands left their body and they fell for less than a second, snapping their eyes open but before they could react, they fell on something really soft and comfortable. almost as comfortable as your hands. it was a little bed!

"woaaahhhhhhhh did you get this for me?!" they said with happiness as they jumped on the bed a little, "no I didn't, I made it! it's got more! wanna see?" you said with pride, this was the hardest thing you've ever made after all.

they looked at the gift in awe as you attached the dome to the base of the bed, unbuttoning the entrance and gesturing them to go in, and you bet your ass they did, they dived in snuggling the thing. you buttoned it back up letting it be darker, but slight light managed to go through the fabric which was very little light anyway.

you said to the Riri who was embracing the new gift, "again, I'm sorry I'm so difficult to work with, I've just, never been one for love, this is the best I can do....for you at least." you mumbled at the end, looking at the time, 12am. ansu would 100% be asleep by now so it's best you do too.

walking to the light switch you turn it off, then laying in bed, feeling content that not only they liked it- no loved it, they were sleeping in the same room as you tonight.

little did you know, Riri was sitting in their dome, furiously blushing at the implication that you could even possibly love them. their- 'heart'? so to speak was thumping loudly in their chest.

they peeked out of their dome, seeing you asleep. they carried their bed to your pillow, quietly and got back in. They were unsure if they should button it up so they couldn't see you, or keep it undone to gaze at you throughout the night...

before they could decide, your hand reached in and held the side of the bed, that was a decision maker.

you awoke to soft, cute? snores? hold up, what?

your eyes opened to the light of the sun filling your room, fuck off sun.

Riri was next to your hand with the dome off completely, resting their head on your hand and their body on their bed, huh.

WAIT WHAT?

for some reason, you turned red at the sight. no way...your heart beating fast, your face is flushed, palms sweaty, thoughts racing, scenarios happening in your mind, feeling bubbly? the shit?! you better not be in love with a baked bean?!

you carefully got out of bed, not waking them. you started pacing, fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck okok just, just take a walk! yeah! that'll stop this madness! hahahaha please god help me.

You got changed, noticing that when you flicked your eyes back to Riri, they seemed a bit orange, not as yellow as normal. huh. wait...COLOUR THEORY. PINK + YELLOW = ORANGE! THEYRE BLUSHING! That mother fucker peeped. huffing, there was nothing you could do about it now.

"Riri, wanna come on a walk with me?" if you actually had intelligence, you would make a clone of yourself and beat the shit out of yourself. turn it into a version of the Hunger Games but a clone edition. how fucking dumb are you? this was your escape from them. down the drain that goes!

they sat up slowly, still slightly orange, looking away from you they nodded. That is out of character. you furrowed your brows and tried to move past it.

they waved their wand and suddenly there was a rip-off Kagamine Rin in your room! she had slightly pink cheeks and you could damn near say this is a very pretty girl. why do blondes do this to you?

"R-Riri?...that you dude?"

"who else would it be dummy?" they said with sarcasm. but somehow pulled a cute face with a peace sigh with their hand.

you picked up a random gummy bear from a packet you were eating and threw it at her head in annoyance, she caught it in her mouth and started chewing on it, giving you a grin.

little shit. you glared with such sharpness, you could cut her hair.

this led you to be walking around a quiet park with Riri, you watched her analyse the couples around us, giggling, holding hands, kissing even. just don't look. it'll never be you anyways.

you were kind of depressed knowing you were hopeless at getting someone to like you let alone date someone. Riri was straight up staring at them, you low key thought it was creepy.

sighing through your nose, you reached and grabbed Riri's hand, intertwining your fingers. "see? it's not all that great..." you ate your own words after you said them because holding her hand for some reason made your heart flutter.

she wasn't any better, she was a flustered mess, she never felt this before, was it okay for a wizard to be in love with a human? wait, what? did she accidentally admit that to herself?

she glanced at you, who was looking at a very fluffy-looking dog that you tried to hide a smile as you looked at it's cuteness. lips pressed together and nose scrunched as you resisted to urge to run to it and bury your face in its fur.

Riri unconsciously had a smile sneak its way onto her face.

maybe she didn't need to analyse couples after all, she could just analyse the two of you!

the dog strutted away from you, as though it knew it was cute. you pouted and turned back to Riri, still expecting her to be analysing the couples around you, you did a double take when she was just gazing at you with a soft smile, unlike her usual idol rip-off smile.

that...that caught you off guard. "Riri? are you okay?" you muttered softly as she widened her smile back to its normal idol self and a sharp nod sent your way.

you're hands were disconnected for a while as you were admiring the dog not long ago, you missed the warmth as it was a cold morning. yeah. that's why. But that was short-lived as after the girl returned to her spirits, your hand got snatched into her own like it owed her money. The grip was firm but it seemed you were the only one who had a reaction to it, it just made her smile wider while it made you try to tug out of it in shock, you were weirded out and showing proudly on your face.

all hope of escape was abandoned when she let go, only to wrap an arm around yours. walking in large steps towards the lake most people come to the park to see. you felt like it was a kidnapping when she sat you down on the bench furthest from everyone.

you sighed, "Riri...what are you doing?" you asked tiredly as the girl for now was swinging her legs back and forth, holding on to your hand for dear life.

"helping you figure out how love scenes should play out! without you friend zoning them." she said with a glare and tight smile at the end. so she saw all of the times you've ruined her attempts then...oops.

"Riri, I know how they play out, I've just never wanted it to play out." you said as you rolled your head back in boredom. to you, a heart feels heavy, its a burden after all. on the contrary, thats never stopped anyone.

Riri looked puzzled and looked intently at the lake, slowly forgetting she was holding your hand. "why wouldn't you want that? don't all girls?"

you snapped your neck to look at her in a dumbfound state, is this what that loser company had been teaching the wizards?

"no! NONONO! absolutely not! not every girl wants to be stuck in some shitty romcom where the girl has a harem of boys thirsting for her love! some just want... a gradual emotional development. a genuine one." you started to rant, your tone becoming more stressed.

"Riri...this 'love'...that you think is true isn't! its just not right. love isn't about looks. about personality. they're key factors, yes. but are they what makes love? fuck no!"

you grabbed both of her hands and made her face you. She was the one in shock, there was no romantic book that she's researched that ever had a scene like this...and what you're saying....is it not true?...

"if these wizards just taught you love was something about looks or personality, then they don't know their shit. those are called crushes, but they're no long-term." you calm yourself down as Riri stays silent throughout all of this, just holding your hands in return and a slight pink dusting her cheeks.

"Love is about the companionship, the trust, the emotional connection, a gradual thing. nobody can fall for someone in less than a week. its about hardships and blessings. unfortunate situations being dominated by closeness. That's how it forms..." the way you were looking into Riri's eyes almost made you recoil as you realised, you were describing how you fell in love. COUGH what? hm? I didn't hear anything.

you looked back at the lake after letting go of her hands, your fingers twitching every now and again as you came to realise how passionate and hopeful you sounded, it sounded like you knew what you were talking about; like you knew what love was.

flicking your eyes back at Riri for less than a second, you saw she was just...staring....mouth slightly parted but there was...pink on her cheeks? was she flattered by this? or...flustered? nooo. she can't...wait...maybe?

you snorted into your hand at her face and she realised how pathetic this was.

"What are you laughing for! this isn't fair! i haven't done anything funny!" she whined as she writhed back and forth in a worm-like way while she was still sitting on the bench.

"that reaction's pretty damn funny if you ask me" you said with a giggle, patting her shoulder softly as you stood up and brushed yourself off.

"now can we finish-" you cut yourself off by waving your arms around, gesturing to all of the things around you "all of 'this'?" you finish.

The poor blonde sighed with her head down, slowly dragging her feet on the trek back to your home. Little giggles left your throat the entire time, yet you did feel embarrassed about that little tangent about love and its deep meaning. but eh, what's done is done.

getting back to the house and flopping on your bed and sighing, you heard Riri looking around again when a though crossed your mind, "how on earth did you turn into a girl??" you propped yourself up on your elbows to look at her in confusion, only for her to pull out her wand and tap it against her head with a cheeky grin,

"Trade secret my precious little (y/n)!" suddenly her body slowly morphed into a taller form and looked more masculine.

"NOW A DUDE?!- SHIT ARE YOU GENDER FLUID?! AH FRICK I HAVENT ASKED YOU WHAT YOUR PREFFERED PRONOUNS ARE-"

your voice came out panicked before Riri sweat dropped and covered your mouth with his hand. "its not that serious-"

as he spoke, he forgot where his hand was, your face slowly warmed up as he was extremely close to your face and his hand was the only thing between your lips in all fairness.

Your eyes flickered from his eyes to his lips, and your face continued to get painted in a vibrant red.

Only after your long silence did he realize that your proximity may not have been the most appropriate and he also pulled away with a blush and frantic hands all over the place.

The silence in the room was deafening as you both sat and stood in awkward quietness. Well, that was shattered when Riri spoke up.

"Y'know at the park? Does that mean you HAVE fallen in love?" his hands were fiddling together as he asked the question, and an unusual emotion for him to feel was brewing, nervousness.

All that question squeezed out of you was a sharp nod and a quick moment of eye contact.

"for me?" his voice came out small, sounding almost fragile as his face reddened, sparkles flying around him and you coughed harshly into your hand looking away. The avoidance was getting harder as he got closer and closer to your face. The over grown human version of puppy eyes we slightly working.

Screwing your eyes tightly shut, but if you kept them open, you would have noticed his puppy eyes face was leaning closer and closer, coaxing you to tell him. You gathered every ounce of courage your body had to offer and turned your face to his, making the close distance between the two of you non-existent as the boy squeaked and your face bloomed a scarlet.

Wouldn't have happened if he didn't get so close.

both of you slowly calmed down yet the kiss never broke, you opened your eyes to see his face only to see a soft gaze looking at you for approval to continue, this was the final push you needed to hold his cheek and put pressure into the kiss, so it was a real kiss.

you slowly leaned back and saw a vibrant red kageme len sitting in front of you, a hand rushing up to cover his lips and a tiny feminine squeal left his mouth.

"take that as a yes you baked bean." you gruffed out, crossing your arms and leaning away.

Your attempt was futile as he jumped and glomped on you laughing like a maniac and burying his face in the crook of your neck, nuzzling almost as he made you nearly fall on the floor. Your hands rested and steadied themselves on his waist.

He leaned back from his overpowering hug and, softly, with the utmost care, grabbed your chin and smiled before gently pressing his lips to yours. You felt dizzy as you let him. Every time you pulled away, he'd let you take a breath, and then he'd dig back in for more.

From every moment you two were together, you had to be touching. Riri's orders were so you complied. As time went on with Riri's company pestering them about your love life, they replied with "work in progress." However, when it came to getting a bonus, they normally held hands with you, sending them a photo of their progress.

Normally you giggle at this and jump onto their back, making them carry you to get you a snack from your kitchen.
