Yandere Drider Dad

First fic! 

WARNINGS: Overprotective behavior, kidnapping, child neglect, child abandonment, spiders/spiderlings, possessiveness, reader gets gagged

Yandere Drider Dad who found you, a human, tangled up in his webs and covered by his kids who were crawling all over you. Half of them thought you were food, and half of them insisted on waiting “Until Dad gets home!” 

Yandere Drider Dad who wonders how you even got here and looks up to find a hole in the cave roof. It’s dark outside, tree tops and stars peering back down at him.

Yandere Drider Dad who tells them no, you’re not food, and no, you’re not staying. 

Yandere Drider Dad who despite their protests and whines, pulls his kids off of you (hissing at one of them when they accidentally cut you with their talons from trying to cling on to you) and cradles you in his arms for a moment. 

…You look…terrible. At first, he thinks it’s from the fall, but you look thin and to him, you feel like glass in his hands. Your hair is matted- why is it matted? He has some knowledge of humans, and he knows that they’re not stupid and that they usually take good care of their young. So why wasn’t this the case with you? 

Yandere Drider Dad who jolts when you wake up and start screaming. It startles him and he quickly webs your mouth shut, shushing and chittering at you. He’s not the only Drider on this mountain, and you don’t want to put your younger sib- his kids in danger, do you? 

Yandere Drider Dad who after thinking for a moment, patches your cuts and scrapes up with his webs, wraps you in in a cocoon so you can’t run off- to keep you warm, and places you back onto the webs. He tells his spiderlings to keep away from you so you don’t freak out even more and to stay put before leaving the nest.

Yandere Drider Dad who comes across a cabin as the sun starts to rise. He can’t keep you. He can’t. You’re a young human. You already have parents who are probably freaking out and wondering where you are. 

Yandere Drider Dad who stands there in silence when he finds an empty cabin, tire tracks and the smell of older humans still somewhat fresh. Did they leave you?

They left you.

Yandere Drider Dad who feels both relieved and angry. He takes back what he thought about humans. They’re all stupid. He searches around, looking for tracks or signs that they at least tried to look for you. There’s nothing. No signs at all. They simply packed up and left. He’s angry that humans would just leave their children for no reason at all. 

But also relieved that he can keep you now. 

Yandere Drider Dad who won’t leave you and ignore you like your spawnpoints did. He’ll take better care of you. He’s the only option you have left, and he’s not complaining. 

Yandere Drider Dad who “adopts” you into his family. You have so many younger siblings to play with now! Sure, they don’t really understand personal space just yet, and they may bite you from time to time, but they love you just as much as your Dad does. They got attached to you the moment you landed in their home. 

Yandere Drider Dad who goes out of his way to cook your portion of dinner, even though he and your siblings eat it raw. Don’t eat meat? He’s concerned, but goes out at night to collect some nuts and berries for you. Allergic? Never mind the nuts then. Do expect to be hand-fed if you try to make a fuss. 

Yandere Drider Dad who refuses to let you leave the cave. It’s dangerous out there, after all. Other Driders aren’t as kind as he is, and there’s also wild animals- and what if you got hurt- what if someone tried to take you away- like a harpy- those things will snatch up spiderlings- he's already lost one-

What if you ran away? 

…Yeah, no. You’re staying in the cave with your siblings. 

Why would you run away? Why would you leave them? He cares about you. Your siblings care about you. He doesn’t understand why you keep fussing. Why do you keep screaming and shouting at him and your siblings? He loves you, but please. Stop. It’s hurting your throat and your family’s sensitive ears, and it puts everyone in danger. He keeps your mouth webbed shut unless you’re eating and until you finally stop. 

Yandere Drider Dad who wraps you up tightly in a cocoon to keep you nice, warm, and safe. And to make sure you don’t try to run away again. Why would you want to go back? The other humans obviously didn’t care about you. Who needs them? Especially when you have him and your little siblings, all who cuddle up together on the web when it’s time for bed. 

With you in the middle. 

Right where you belong. 

Surrounded by your real family.

I think two of my favorite readers are fast food reader and everglades reader 🥰

Also the everglades reader posts immediately reminded my of Fluffy (the comedian) skit about the crocodile hunter. (Cant remember the actually words just the touch part lol).

Ever!reader: you see that?! That one right there has a bite force equal to biting into a boiled carrot! / This one is so venomous it could paralyze you faster than it take for you to fall to the floor!!

...

Ever!reader: I'm gonna touch/poke it! 🥰

"You see this little guy right here? This right here is a wandering spider - one of the most venomous spiders in the world. Nausea, severe pain, abdominal cramps, erections that can last for hours, breathing difficulties that can lead to death if not treated soon enough...."

You count off the small percentage of the list of symptoms you've mentioned so far with your fingers as the drider looms behind you. Little was quite the broad term to use for it. The creature was large enough to where they could probably fit your entire head between their fangs has they wished. It ponders how a human could be so brave to turn their back on a beast of their kind while rambling on about the very side effects they have a probable chance of inflicting you with at any given moment. Perhaps it was stupidity. Either way, the spider was positively enthralled by you and your nulled sense of danger. How on earth has a person like yourself survived out here for so long?

"Anyway, I'm gonna poke them."

The drider shifts - given little to no time to process your words as your finger pads the fuzzy layer of skin right where a nose would be if they had one. You laugh as all six of their eyes point towards the area of their face where your hand had touched.

"Boop!...See, this little guy is chill. Barely any reaction at all"

Truth be told, the drider was too stunned to move a muscle. No one's ever had the nerve to touch them like that. And which such a carefree attitude too. You truly had zero regards for your own safety -

Which meant if you ended up in the spider's web there's really no one to blame for your disappearance but yourself. If anything they'd be doing you a favor by taking your well-being into their own hands.

SUI HOW COULD YOU CREATE ANOTHER LOVELY MONSTERRRRR AT THIS POINT IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL DRIDER YAN APPEARS AND THAT I'LL BE TORN BETWEEN HIM AND NAGA. (Ọnọ)

-💌 nonnie (who's still hyperfixating on the hero yan and villain yan oneshot AAAAAA)

hey bestie! 😁😁😁 (heh😈)

✎ yandere! drider who makes outfits for you. he's an amazing tailor! crafting you works of art to try and appeal to you. they fit you wonderfully and are extremely comfortable!

✎ yandere! drider who is super friendly towards you. he just wants to spend so much time with you and he thinks that being friendly works well!

✎ yandere! drider who literally does not care about anyone else other than you. they're his dinner. yummy! 😋

✎ yandere! drider who is excited to mate with you. he hopes that he'll be able to pleasure you well :) don't worry! his nest is extremely comfy! and he's eliminated any threats already :3 so he's sure that it'll be a fun n happy time! ^⁠_⁠^

"go to sleep, sweetheart."

he coos at your sleepy figure as his arachnid lower body wraps you in a warm and comfortable blanket. you nuzzle into it, enjoying its warmth as you slowly drift off into dreamland.

meanwhile, your drider boyfriend chuckles as he carries you with his strong arms into his nest. you're just so cute! so adorable all wrapped up in his creation made specifically for you!

he's so glad you responded positively to his attempts at courting you. he really wouldn't have known what he'd do if you rejected his advances. after all he's a territorial spider hybrid. he would've done something you wouldn't have enjoyed!

he's just so in love with you, you know? trapping people in his web, taking their items to present to you as gifts... you'd like it, no? of course you would! why wouldn't you?

besides, he's pretty sure you're already succumbing to the poison. the aphrodisiac poison present in his saliva. it's pretty potent and it really warps someone's view on him.

don't worry, you won't die or anything. you'd just be a cute little sweetheart all for him to love and take care of ♡

{Headcannons for an upcoming au i'm planning} Not enough people talk about Claude after he loses Ciel Phantomhive's soul to Sebastian... Especially not ᴏʙꜱᴇꜱꜱɪᴠᴇ!ᴄʟᴀᴜᴅᴇ... ໒꒰ྀི ˃  ∩∩  ˂ ꒱ྀི১

{Wolf spider!Claude X moth!reader}

🕸 ᴏʙꜱᴇꜱꜱɪᴠᴇ!ᴄʟᴀᴜᴅᴇ who goes back to his claimed territory, sulking the whole way after his loss. Because for the first time in a million years H̷̬͖̻͒e̷̢̝̫͖̯̍̇̀͊ ̷̬̻́l̴͖̹̅͋ọ̴̈́s̶͇̬͔̆̈́̚͝ẗ̴̪́̎̃̿ ̴̢̧͚̜̊͠ḩ̴̛͍̰̳̂̄͐i̷̠͇̥̹̓͆́̊s̶͎͍̘͊͑̐̽ ̵̗̆̌́̿̍p̵̦͎̥̟͔̈́̾ṙ̸̺̼̉ī̶̭̻͇͉̕z̴̥̠̙̳̅̃̒e̷̹͙͋ This loss is not easy pill to swallow when he's the one, who's infamously known as the calmest and composed in any given scenario. He finds himself losing his cool. His anger, and rage causing continuous damage both around his and others territory.

🕸 ᴏʙꜱᴇꜱꜱɪᴠᴇ!ᴄʟᴀᴜᴅᴇ and his presumptuous nature, overconfident and eccentric behaviour being the reason behind his biggest failure, that too to a younger demon! - A massive blow to his ego... Sebastian absolutely getting the upper hand on him once he loses his poise. A more established and esteemed demon losing in such a manor would absolutely make him a laughingstock among the inhabitants of hell... And it does. That too because of a human soul's aroma? Preposterous! Claude is absolutely seething in solitude. So, he makes up for his loss of reputation by unleashing absolute chaos onto whoever dares to even snicker at him.

The aroma of Ciel Phantomhive's soul... An aroma he had yet to ever encounter on his own adventures... Truly a noteworthy meal. He'd even applaud Sebastian if he wasn't kitten licking his bruised ego.

So, you can see why he's so perplexed when he senses the same fragrance back in hell... On a demon too... A pretty one, one lesser in status than him, but makes up with her resourcefulness. The unique skull like birthmark on your forehead, just above your adorable doe eyes, and the quiet buzzing of your wings makes him shudder in excitement. Ideas of you writhing underneath him... In his arms, as he makes you his own... Hmm exciting, no? So, like the opportunistic hunter he is, eager to win your affections he revels in the idea of a chase. Especially after one as mesmerising as you are ♡

🕸 ᴏʙꜱᴇꜱꜱɪᴠᴇ!ᴄʟᴀᴜᴅᴇ who searches high and low for you, but is stumped to see you are nowhere to be found... Where he wants you to be. Only for you to walk right into the palm of his hand. Clueless as to who even has his eyes on you. You, the runt of the litter just trying to find a place to settle, and you strut right into his lair for a measly amount of nectar and honey. Once he gets his hands on you however...He will never ever let you leave his sight. You're his whether you like it or not~

"There's no use in trying to run little one, you're mine now~"

Caught in a Web. {Yan!Drider x Reader}

Warns: Kidnapping and Murder! POV: You and two friends travel up the mountain near your village to collect things for the village Elder. You end up finding something or rather...Someone.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

“Such a pretty little thing…How blessed am I that the heavens have dropped you into my web..”

This was supposed to be a simple trip up to the mountains to get some herbs to bring back to your village for the Village Elder. But of course, one of your friends just had to go into a cave that just screamt danger. You had warned them, sensing an overwhelming feeling of dread from the place.

“Come OONNN Y/n  stop being such a little baby! Besides! There's probably some cool stuff in here.”

“He’s right. It’ll just be a quick in and out Y/n!”

You sighed as you followed behind them at a safer distance. When the three of you walked in the cave, you felt a draft and the smell of something sweet. You couldn’t put your finger on it, and you really didn’t have the time to think about it before you slipped and fell.

You let out a terrified scream as your friends in front of you stood in shock. It was a terrifying sight to behold. Bodies were strung up, dangling from the ceiling like little cocoons. Bones were strewn about the place and the area was covered in almost iridescent like spider silk, and when you looked down you saw that your foot was covered in it.

“W-we need to run..we need to get out of here. NOW!” You yelled as you quickly got up and turned to run, hearing the footsteps of your friends behind you, you didn’t bother to look back, especially since you heard something that wasn’t your friends.

You turned to look over your shoulder and let out a gasp. 

Behind you was a man, he was about 10ft tall, but not because he was just a giant ass man, he was half man, half spider. A drider, something your grandmother had warned you about when you told her that you were going  to the mountains.

“Where are you going little one...?” His voice was deep, silky smooth almost and it echoed off the cave walls. Under different circumstances, that voice would have done something to you. But at this moment it spelt danger.

He had curly white hair and deep pink eyes, his skin was a light tan/brown, and the lower…spider half was a deep brown. He had a scar across his chest and several bracelets on his arms. What ever place they stumbled upon, he seems like he was the leader.

“Please don’t make me use my powers…”

You heard him say, and within a split second, your body jolted forward as you hit the ground hard.

“Y/n!”

“OH Fuck!”

You went to get up, You started being dragged against the dirty, hard ground, bones and body parts flying around you as you were dragged at surprising speed.

You tried to claw onto something, but every branch that you gripped onto, every rock seemed to dislodge from the ground until you were suddenly face to face with the monstrous beast whose home you foolishly invaded.\

“Oh my…You’re so pretty up close..” He says softly as his hand comes up to caress her face. He smiles as he nuzzles his face against yours, as if taking in your scent and the feel of your skin.

“W-what do you want from me..?” You asked terrified and he chuckled, his eyes locking with yours. 

“What do I want? Silly..You are what I want. See you–”

He was interrupted by a rock coming at him and hitting him on the side of the head. He stopped talking and held you close to him, that's when you realized he had two sets of arms. He held you with the first set before snapping his fingers with the other. 

Your eyes widened as two more smaller driders lowered themselves from the ceiling.

He looked over to your friends and simply spoke.

“Dinners ready, Boys.”

You were horrified when you were forced to watch what you could only assume was his sons go and attack you friends. Treating them as if they were some new delicacy for them to try.

The Drider turns you back to face him. “Do not look, I do not want your precious eyes to see the carnage that is taking place.” He says as he lifts your chin so you could look at him. The sounds were horrifying. You could hear the cries of pain of your friends before a sickening CRACK, then complete silence.

You looked at him horrified and tried to squirm out of his grasp..

“Y-you M–!” “Mathias.” He interrupted, with a sickening smirk on his face. “My name is Mathias. And you are my mate.”

He easily maneuvered into another area with you in his arms, going into another area that looked to be covered with crystals, jewels and various animal pelts on the floor.

“I’ve been watching you since you walked up the mountain..I just knew then that I had to have you in my arms.You’re just such a pretty little thing…”

He placed you down with a small smile, “This is where we will lay, and you’ll be with me until the end of times, you will bear children and we’ll be so happy together..” You looked at him with confusion before shaking your head.

“Wait what?! I have a life! I can’t be her-!” You yelped as you found yourself tackled to the ground. He was hovering over you, his eyes glowing a dangerous deep purple,

You went silent, allowing him to nuzzle his face into the side of your neck, his hands caressing your body.

“See…you’ll be just fine in my arms.. Okay?..”

You could feel the tears starting to pool in your eyes. You were stuck.

And this was your new home now…

Please send me more ideas!! I had fun writing this ngl...

[ash-rigby]

Drider boyfriend tying you up in his web, biting and injecting you with aphrodisiac venom that leaves your head pleasantly fuzzy and your body loose so he can fuck you full of cum until he's milked dry.

[yanderemommabean]

so what I'm understanding is-- drider ties up reader!human in silk to mate under the pretenses of their own safety-- ơῳơ • ☽♡☾

You'll be tied down with your hands to your ankles, spread open for easy access while they coo and croon in your ear about how perfect of a mate you are, and how all of this is to assure you won't hurt yourself trying to wriggle away.

Driders can be persuasive but others would prefer not to risk losing a mate at all. You'll be just fine, they don't plan to be complete monsters! Your pleasure comes first and foremost, and what's the point of catching such a meal if they can't indulge in a taste or two?

Oh they would hate to have to gag you, those pretty moans pair so well with your tears! Those are tears of joy right? Well, if not, they will be.

Into the spiders web

Cw : Hinted Yandere Arlecchino, drider Arlecchino cause her boss form is giving spider, hinted noncon. This came to me in the middle of writing something else and I had to write what I had.

Feel free to slide in my inbox or DM's and gush about this woman with me-

-

-

-

Drider!Arlecchino trapping you in her web, cooing at how you struggle in your restraints, how you are so small compared to her.

"What a delectable little thing you are. Ah, yes, I can't wait to devour you."

Her mandibles make a chittering noise, almost as if she was delighted in the tears pricking your eyes. You can't move, your limbs stuck to her sticky webbing, only able to watch her tie your arms and legs up, poisitioning them however she wants.

.....What?

Your legs are spread perfectly for her. One set of her arms rub just under your shirt, slowly sliding up to rid you of it, while her second set toys with the hem of your pants.

"What a cute little thing you are, it would be ashame to waste such perfection. Yes, I think I'll keep you for myself."

You should never travel in the Fontaine wilds alone at night, one with a moon so red you missed her traps.

But that's just what she was hoping for, seeing you pass through day in and day out was torture for her when you are just too precious.

You'll never be leaving her den.

“ It’s not a possibility that a mere human could be affected by the blood moon. The many humans that have been on pandora have never experienced any effects by the Ominous phenomenon, but instead fascinated by its occurrence and affect on the navi. However there is a human boy who has lived in the planet for quite some time and followed a family’s footsteps in becoming one of them. When his friends told him of the blood moon he became very interested in the event, and once he gazed upon the blood moon one day it had rather a crucial result. During that night, the forests of pandora have been decorated in spider webs and the Navi described sightings of a spider like being with a human body, and they swear they hear dark chuckling in the night”

Hi..um I don't know if you accept requests and I'm sorry if I'm bothering you but that Drider Shinsou doodle you posted was absolutely amazing and I was wondering if you would consider doing a fic for it..? I'm a monsterlover and it just made me so happy^^

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_--_-_-_-_-

Drider! Shinsou imagines

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_--_-_-_-_-

Imagine Drider! Shinsou chuckling cruelly as he ensnares you within the confines of his silky webs making bindings out of the sticky material he produces from the tips of his slender humanoid claws to ensure that his adorable stray human won’t escape from his cave a second time.

With the utmost care and precision Drider!Shinsou locks your wrists into place above your head and spreads your legs wide apart from each other before using his webs to strap them into position.

Taking a few steps back with his lower arachnid body Drider! Shinsou looks up in wonderment at how beautifully you are presented just for him. Even though you’ve yet to awaken from the slight venomous fangs he had buried into the crook of your neck the second you entered his cave a second time. He couldn’t help the satisfied trills escape from his mouth seeing how relaxed and vulnerable you are in his presence.

Drider! Shinsou idly wondered how you’d react when you woke up to the predicament you’ve gotten into. Just thinking about it made him grow an amused lazy grin. But for now he’ll put that thought aside and just admire you, as he whispers to you a sweet proposition underneath his breath.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of you my little stray I’m gonna make this your forever home. One that you’ll never leave from again.”

Monsterlovers gotta stick together ✊🖤

A/n: Also hey guys back from the dead for now 👀

But good news is I’ll be trying to post more of the requests I’ve gotten since it’s kinda backed up at the moment and ease back into the genshin Cyoa sometime this week!

Hope y’all are doing well!

I love the idea of little frog (hybrid?) Reader and a big huge drider

Wendell isn’t the best at communicating, or planning— he fell in love with you on sight, scooped you up, and brought you home on instinct. For the first time in your frog hybrid life (being quite accustomed to jumping and hopping on your own), you felt fear and vertigo as you flew through the air. The sky spun in your vision, darkness swallowed it up, and little spots of light began to sway back and forth— torches, or little lamps, deep in an underground burrow.

Your body trembled with the urge to leap away, somewhere, anywhere, but blood-chilling fear laid you limp in your captor’s many arms. He chatted away to you excitably the whole time, but you barely heard him over the blood rushing in your ears. Finally you arrived at his web, and he stopped to look at you, for the second-ever time. Wendell was blown-away. He could feel himself falling in love all over again.

But something was wrong— he could tell, as your fated lover, and you were fated, otherwise how could he feel so strongly already?— which was… that you looked near death. Your complexion was notably ashen compared to the first time he’d looked at you, your eyes bulging and adorable mouth slack. Wendell’s fuzzy arms maneuvered you closer to his head. You stayed still, sure that this would be your last moment on earth. But Wendell merely tilted his head, pressing his human-like ear to your chest. He rumbled a little, a sound that almost made you feel at ease, but his mandibles clicked and moved to your throat and then— nothing. Sweet bits of nothing, some dream fluff that would dissolve away when you woke.

Wendell carefully wrapped your sleeping form in a little cocoon and placed you in his web, making sure to keep your face free of silk. He couldn’t help but coo over how cute you looked all bundled up and cozy, and pressed kisses to your cheeks while settling in next to you and taking a nap of his own.

[karniss-bg3]

"Could be 'er blood by the looks of you."

If that poor goblin only knew...

Anywho, here's Tam'lin (Ex-Lolthsworn, Drow Gloomstalker Ranger, Folk Hero, Minthara's more agreeable cousin) looking gorgeous as always, from Act I.

[ein-liebloser-wanderer]

The Araneae -- Yandere Spider Headcanons

Scenario: You have heard of how dangerous spider the folk are. You knew that they were cannibals, antisocial cold-bloods with a penchant for mariticide. Still, you decided to date one anyway. You thought you were playing it safe by dating a male? He'll prove how wrong you are. (Based on and an expansion of this)

⸸ You thought male spiders were just meek, submissive little creatures, didn't you?

⸸ Really, the only reason you ever dated him was because you wanted to see what it was like. It thrilled you, didn't it? Knowing that you were dating someone so dangerous, so possessive.

⸸ At the very least, it must have satiated your curiosity towards them.

⸸ Or perhaps you truly loved him? No, that would be sugarcoating it. You simply took advantage of the fact that the Araneae were very committed partners.

⸸ You knew he would give his everything to you. After all, weren't the males known for allowing themselves to be devoured by their partner?

⸸ He would give his life up for you if needed be, and you loved it.

⸸ But over time, you realized that nothing in this relationship was worth any of this. Perhaps your heart finally learned to have some conscience. Or maybe you simply lost interest.

⸸ Or were you finally beginning to realize just how seriously the Araneae take their commitments? Were you no longer able to handle the responsibility?

⸸ Regardless, you eventually managed to find the courage, believing that enough was enough, and that you could no longer continue this farce.

⸸ You must have thought you were being a good samaritan by finally confessing the truth. Yes, this would hurt him, but in the long run, this was for the good. For you and for him. He could resent you as much as he wanted, but still, he deserved someone who would truly love him!

⸸ You should have just continued the act.

⸸ The Araneae aren't ones to back out of their commitments. Once the courtship dance begins, there is no leaving. You have tugged on the strings of his web, and he paid notice.

⸸ Finish what you begun.

⸸ In a way, you were correct to assume that the males were 'safer'. Yes, they didn't eat their mates. However, you were wrong to assume that they were just weaklings that existed solely to be devoured and taken advantage of.

⸸ Though, for you, he didn't mind. He would have played the subservient lover. All he wanted was to be someone important to you.

⸸ But if you were to leave...would you act as if nothing ever happened? Would you act like complete strangers, only speaking in polite small talks as if he didn't know already many things about you?

⸸ Would you eventually forget about him? Because if so...

⸸ Really, you should have tried to learn a little more about his kind. Maybe then, you would have known what the males do when their potential mate turned out to be a disappointment.

~~~ E n d ~~~

(After this is just me being geeky about real life spiders.)

So, I read somewhere that there is a specific species of spiders where the females aren't the only ones that participate in sexual cannibalism.

From what I understand of spiders in general, females cannibalize because they mistaken the male's 'courtship dance' as prey struggling to get away from their web. Sometimes, however, the female just eats the male even after mating because, well...why not?

In my mind, the Araneae function the same way.

What not many people know about is that there are in fact male spiders that also participate in sexual cannibalism. From what I read somewhere, males only ever do so when they end up disliking the female spider they were initially interested in (what inspired this headcanon).

I'm no arachnologist though. If you want to understand this in more detail, you can just read about spider courtship in National Geographic or something.
