Notes: I tried a new style of writing and it’s fun but I doubt I’ll use it that frequently tbh haha. Part 1/3 winter headcanons! I mean this one is an imagine-ish one but-

Ft: Cale, Choi Han, Alberu

Cale Henituse

When it gets cold, Cale starts huddling down for warmth. Once he gets comfortable it’s nigh impossible to join in without exerting some form of drastic measure. Therefore if you’ve decided you want in on that blanket cuddle pile get ready to act fast and swiftly. Attack any exposed skin with your chilled fingers, be it his neck or shoulders. As he flinches in surprise and yelps, take advantage of his lapse in concentration to wedge into the gap of his blanket cocoon. The man will grumble and complain that there’s not enough space for two, that you’re letting the cold air in, which you are free to ignore as he will eventually settle down with a pout (that can be easily soothed with a kiss). If he continues to grumble, attach your icy hands on his stomach as a last resort, instigating a battle for control of the blankets until either your scuffling brings the both of you to the floor or he relents in fear of your cold digits. Enjoy your spoils of the fight, wrapped up in blankets already warmed up by Cale. If you’re feeling generous, you may invite him to join you because at least you know how to share.

Choi Han

Suddenly finding a  heavy weight rest on your shoulders as you work would prompt you to look up to see Choi Han wrapping you with a blanket. Even as you thank him, he disappears and returns just as quickly with a scarf, mittens, ear muffs and a hot drink in hand. You might’ve been a little chilled but now you’re cooking under all these layers. Shedding them off would be a trial in itself considering the worried, pitiful expressions he’ll shoot you until you tell him that the quickest way to warm up is to share body heat - aka. cuddling. Sip your hot drink patiently as you wait for Choi Han to cycle through all ten shades of red, eventually you’ll realise he’s not going to be making a move soon so be bold and assert your authority- pull him down to sit next to you and remember to loop your arm with his before he makes his escape. He’ll be stiff as a board but give him a few minutes for the warmth to seep in and you’ll physically feel him melt into you and the blankets. Throw his arm around your shoulders and he’ll automatically hold your hands in his and attempt to warm them up. Feel free to continue your work as he’s lulled to a light comfortable sleep by your warmth.

Alberu Crossman

This man is far too perceptive for his own good. You think you don’t have cues, that you’re as sleek and suave as they come, but one moment you’re thinking ‘It’s getting kind of cold-‘ and he’s got an arm wrapped around you and telling the maids to grab a coat for you. You’re smart enough not to bother him when he’s with others but when he’s alone in his office, feel free to scoot on over and make yourself comfortable on his lap. He’ll always open up his arms to cuddle you to him, wide grin adorning his face as he asks how you’re doing. As a quarter dark elf he can resist cold to a certain extent but when you come cuddle, he’ll light the fireplace with a flick of his wrist (“Show off.” “Only for you.”) and arrange his winter cloak around the both of you. His enveloping warmth will soon lull you to a peaceful light sleep. Before you conk out you’ll realise that the lights around you have dimmed and he’d returned to signing paperwork, all while still giving the best cuddles to you. Alberu Crossman is an efficient multitasker that’s for sure.

I’ve always wanted to do this for the new years but I’ve never had time to do it on time. Thankfully this day is also a perfect day to really reflect and say my thanks because the blog has been through many changes after a year and it’s really group effort at this point.

Because miscellaneous stats make me happy this is all TCF focused and excludes stats from other fandoms. I mean. I’m also lazy and can’t be bothered to math too much. Anyways let’s take a rewind and see what shit I’ve been up to-

October 4, 2020 was the first time I contemplated writing for TCF. I’ve just been exposed to TCF and craving for reader content, alas, there weren’t many. See I could write a bit but since there weren’t many reader fics back then, I wanted to check if anyone’s as desperate for reader content like me...

But it wasn’t until January 28, 2021 did I finally dip my toes into TCF writing with my very first offering to the community “TCF Relationship Headcanons”. Not long after, my first TCF x Reader imagine “Lay Down your Ghosts” was posted and the rest was history after that!

As of to date, I’ve written 59 TCF pieces, 39 of which were headcanons posts and 20 were imagines posts (not counting pieces written for may’s challenge).

Most popular Headcanon: Weak but always getting into trouble reader

Most popular Imagine: Imagining you in a Wedding Dress

The character most often requested and written for is unsurprisingly, Cale leading with 80% frequency, Alberu at second place with 47% and Choi Han at third with 44%. 

Characters I’d like to write more for in the future would include: Rosalyn, Toonka and Beacrox

Currently, I have 54 requests left in my inbox and... 32 WIPs in my drafts.

Fun fact: there are 2 short imagines that I’ve written but have not included in the masterlist or imagines tag, yet people still keep finding them somehow. So they’ve turned into something like the blog’s easter eggs. If you know which posts I’m referring to, then you know ☆⌒(≧▽° ) 

It’s been a year and a bit more since my first contribution to TCF fandom and I’ve met many good friends and nonnies alike who’ve supported me. I can’t stress how much it means for me to have people sticking around to read and join in my shenanigans. I’m not a frequent poster and I’m always grateful everyone’s been so accepting of my procrastination, my English messups and my general outdatedness. For everyone who’s been there from the start, many who’ve met in the middle and people who’ve just recently joined me on this journey, for whatever reason you’ve decided to stick along, from the bottom of my heart,

Thank you❤️.

Many thanks to the support from:
