SURPRISE DROP: FLUFFY DIPPLINSHIPPING ONESHOT FOR VALENTINE'S DAY! <3
It's officially Valentine's Day, but this year felt different for Kieran. He can't hide his feelings for Juliana too much longer - in fact, he feels like he's going to BURST. Juliana will be spending lunch with him as friends, but does he have what it takes to finally fess up and ask her out? And more importantly, will Juliana even agree to go out with him?
(Note: This oneshot is not related to S&S D content)
Special thanks to @blazestar0525 for all of their wonderful fashion art for Juliana! I depicted Juliana in my personal favorite outfit design because it was just TOO good and I have been itching to have it come into a fic!!
Additionally, thank you so much @cosmic-seer for proofreading this for me despite the fact that we're both busy Ribombees juggling many schemes. You a real one!!
Hope you enjoy!!! Would love to hear what you think. <3333

PAIRING. kieran valentine x gn! reader
WORD COUNT. 0.9k
WARNINGS. none
NOTES. this took way longer to write than it should have, but it’s here now, so enjoy!
KEYS. (y/n) - your name e.g. paige, sam, etc.
Tumblr media
"So this is Monster High." You stare at the school before you, your heart beating a million kilometers per hour. "It's bigger than I imagined."
"You'll get used to it eventually," your older sister says. "Well, I'm off. Try not to make a fool of yourself!"
Your sister walks ahead of you, unbothered by your dumbfounded expression.
"B-but aren't you going to show me around?" you question, trying to catch up with the person you call a sister.
"Can't!" she replies, "I got to meet up with my friends!"
Your sister wanders into one of the school's hallways, disappearing among the crowd of students that chat away.
"Brat..." you mumble in annoyance.
Crossing your arms, you anxiously look around the room and take notice of the different hallways. Each hallway could lead you to a separate part of the school, but which one were you supposed to follow?
Grumbling, you unzip your schoolbag and rummage around to find the piece of paper that held your class schedule and locker number.
Everything on here but a map, you think, looking at your schedule.
"I haven't seen you around before." You spin around to see a manster who you can only assume is talking to you, but it's hard to tell with the dark shades covering his eyes. "Are you new here?"
You nod. "Yeah... It's kinda my first day."
"Welcome to Monster High! It's always exciting when the school gets new blood," the manster explains. "I'm Deuce, by the way."
"(y/n)."
"Well, (y/n), do you need someone to show you around?"
Your face brightens. "Really? That would be clawsome!"
"No problem," Deuce replies, "We should stop by your locker first to unpack your stuff. Unless you want to carry your bag the entire day?"
"Definitely not," you answer, "So which way to the lockers?"
"Depends on your locker number."
"Right." Glancing at the paper in your hand, you read your number aloud, "116."
"Oh, that's near Cleo's locker. I'll lead you right to it."
As Deuce leads you to your locker, the gorgon points out a few different classrooms, Headmistress Bloodgood's office, the Creepateria, and Study Howl.
"And this is it!" Deuce's fist bangs against your locker. "Locker 116."
"Thanks for showing me to my locker." Unlocking the lock, you hear a quiet click before opening your locker. "You're a better tour guide than my sister could ever be."
Deuce tilts his head. "You have a sister at Monster High?"
"Yep!" you answer, packing unnecessary books into your locker. "She's annoying, but aren't all siblings?"
"I get that."
Closing your locker, you notice a pink-skinned manster staring at you from behind Deuce. Meeting the manster's eyes, his eyes widen in embarrassment. He quickly looks at the floor, ignoring your piercing gaze.
"Hey, who's that?" you question, gesturing towards the manster behind Deuce.
Deuce follows your gesture, catching sight of the pink-skinned manster.
"That would be Valentine. He's a vampire," Deuce explains.
"Is there a reason he's trying to hide from me? Or is he just shy?"
"He probably thinks you've heard of his bad reputation," he says.
"What did he do to earn a bad reputation?" you ask.
"Your sister didn't tell you?"
"Tell me what?"
"He put a spell on this ghoul I know and tried to make her fall in love with him." Deuce studies Valentine. "He tried to break her heart, but it failed, rendering him powerless."
"That's..." You pause, unsure of what to think of this situation. "A lot."
"He's good now, though." Deuce turns back to you. "Valentine visits from time to time to help couples deal with their relationship problems. Kinda like cupid," Deuce clarifies to enlighten you.
"Which is good. Right?" you ask. "Valentine realized how much trouble he caused and is now trying to fix his mistake."
The bell rings, officially commencing school hours. Monsters gather their stuff and backpacks and head to their classrooms.
"We should probably get to class now."
You nod your head in agreement, following Deuce to your next class, which happens to be Dead Language. Not your favourite subject, but definitely not your worst.
Too busy caught up in your thoughts, you accidentally bump into someone, knocking them down.
"Oh, my ghoul! I'm so sorry!" you apologize, lending them your hand. "Are you okay?"
Looking down at the monster, you realize it's Valentine. His bright rosy eyes stare into your own, and suddenly you're aware of how attractive the vampire is.
Valentine takes your hand, allowing you to help him up. "I'm okay."
"I'm sorry again," you continue, "I was distracted and wasn't looking where I was going. You're Valentine, right?"
"Yes, and you are...?"
"I'm (y/n). I just transferred to Monster High," you explain. "I heard you don't attend Monster High, though. So if you want, I can keep you up on the groaning around the halls?"
"Why would you do that?" the vampire questions, looking at you with raised brows. "Haven't you heard what I've done?"
"Valentine, I'm just trying to be nice." You smile at the vampire, hoping it reassures him. "I think you could use a friend. So if you could give me your iCoffin, that would be clawsome."
Valentine stares at you for a moment, then quickly takes out his iCoffin and offers it to you. Grinning like the devil, you enter your number into the device and pass it back to him.
"I have to get to class, but text me!"

Miscellaneous thing, Reader has a sister as well (younger or older is up to you. BUT shes shorter than the reader) @sm0r3-m0nst3r

Tumblr media Tumblr media
were more comfortable than most new students, if only because of your sister. She'd been attending Monster High a year before you transferred.
Your first week had gone pretty well, there were some nice ghouls and mansters that helped you out when you needed it. Most of the time you preferred to hang around your sister and her friends. There were a lot of times when she got angry about people calling you her ‘older brother’.
The first time you met him was in one of the school gardens. You were tending to the flowers when you saw him sitting alone. You approached him, potted plant in hand. “Hey.” 
“Hello...” He looked at you suspiciously. “So you’re new?” 
“Oh yes, do you like plants?” You asked.
“I enjoy roses.” He said, still hesitant.
“Cool. So what’s your name?” You said, not picking up on his tone. His eyes went slightly wide. 
“Valentine." He said, hesitantly.
“Oh, like that Valentine?” Your older sister had told you some vague details about what he’d done before you arrived.
“Yes, but I've been working on myself." He paused, waiting for you to insult him or call him a liar.
"That's good to hear, have a freesia." You handed him the pot and walked off to tend to the rest of the garden.
He stared down at the pot in his lap, dumbfounded.
It was later that week when you found a rose in your locker. 
"Hey, I don't want to alarm you but is this a threat?" You asked your sister, holding up the flower.
She gasped lightly, "Oh, no, that's a good thing. It means someone likes you." She explained. "Was there a note?"
"No." You said, disappointed.
It continued on like this for a few days, the notes started appearing on the second. Eventually, one of them asked to meet you in the garden.
When you arrived there you saw Valentine. "So you're the one that kept giving me gifts." You said, feeling stupid for not realising it sooner. He handed you another flower, a freesia. "I'd like to get to know you more, if that's ok with you?" He asked.
"I'd like that a lot." You said excitedly.
Tumblr media
A/N 2: I chose freesia at random but apparently they symbolize trust and thoughtfulness but also friendship because the botanist who found the flower had a bromance with his close friend.

Comfort (Charles Smith x Reader fluff oneshot)
Help, i’ve jumped on the red dead train and i can’t get off. This is another idea I had of the reader thinking her lover Javier is dead after the Saint Denis Bank job disaster and getting closer to Charles as a result. Lil bit of angst, lil bit of fluff, the perfect combo!
You couldn’t help but look sad as you shaved the sides of Charles head, watching the long black hair fall to the ground. You loved his hair, but since Javier had been involved in that bank job and disappeared, presumed dead, just like Lenny and Hosea were, Charles had been a great comfort to you, you had grown much closer, so much so that when he asked you to help with his hair, you jumped at the chance to help him.
“I can hear you sighing you know” he said.
You carried on shaving his head, steadying your breathing as you tried not to make any more sounds of disappointment.
“I’m sorry, I just, I love your hair, cutting it off like this, it feels like a crime in itself.”
Charles laughed. “It will grow back hummingbird. It’s just easier like this, gets in the way less” he replied.
You began to braid his hair as he instructed, smiling as Charles seemed to ease into your touch.
“So, this haircut, is this linked to why you keep disappearing on me for a day at a time?”
Charles kept quiet. You knew he was a man of few words, he only ever really opened up to you, and Arthur of course. He had his secrets and you had to respect that. He wasn’t your husband, he wasn’t even your lover. That was Javier, or had been, you didn’t even know any more. You had no idea where he was, or if he was even alive. Everything had gone to shit. Sean, Kieran, Hosea, Lenny, they were all dead. And now Javier, Arthur, Dutch, Bill and Micah were either dead or lost to you too.
As you finished his braid, you leaned down and kissed the side of his head gently. “There, perfect, handsome as ever.”
Charles stared at you as you walked around to face him and admire your work. He looked taken aback by your kiss, and even you blushed a little at the realisation you had kissed him, no matter how chaste it had been.
“Thank you y/n, thank you very much” he said as he stood up.
“Any time, though actually, I would really rather prefer you didn’t ask me to cut anymore of your lovely hair off.”
Charles smiled at your words, touching your arm gently as he passed you.
“So I suppose you’ll be off again? Off on your adventures without me, while I sit here, lonely, waiting, terribly bored, waiting for your return” you called after him.
Charles sighed as he looked up at the sky before walking back towards you.
“If I show you what I’ve been doing all this time, will you stop looking at me like a wounded deer?”
You nodded eagerly.
“Fine, ride with me. Be prepared though, it’s a long ride from here to the grizzlies” he told you as you both walked to your horses. You mounted your white Arabian stallion as you watched him mount Taima with a puzzled look on your face.
“The grizzlies? That’s where you have been going all this time?”
As he led the way, he looked at you as you rode side by side. “I’ve been helping Eagle Flies and his people at the Wapiti reservation, his father, Rains Fall, he wants his people to be treated with respect, but he wants that respect to come peacefully. Eagle Flies has other ideas, his blood runs hot. Actually, maybe you could help, you always do have a way to bring out the best in people.”
You blushed at his words, Charles always had a way of complimenting you while sounding as though he didn’t actually mean to. It was as appealing as it was adorable. The ride to the reservation was long, but you made your way there by the end of the day.
The tribe welcomed you better than you expected, after all, they had every reason to fear outsiders, but your friendship with Charles showed quickly and they were quick to accept any friend of Charles.
You listened as Rains Fall, Charles and Eagle Flies argued, trying to get Eagle Flies to step down attacking a nearby patrol for an unprovoked attack on some members of the tribe. When Charles and Rains Fall’s words fell on deaf ears, Charles gave you a pleading look to intercept.
“Eagle Flies, I understand your pain” you told the young man. “If somebody attacked my family, if someone attacked Charles the way these soldiers attacked your people, I would want revenge as well. But you have to understand, these people are provoking you because they want you to retaliate. They want you to give them a reason to wipe you out. Your location leaves you vulnerable, Fort Wallace is around the corner, Fort Mercier and Strawberry is not that much further out, the army will be on you within hours and they outnumber you ten to one. You do not want your bloodline to end over such a thing. You do not want these men, these bullies, these monsters to be the death of your people. Please see reason, your father just wants you and your people to be safe.”
Charles gave you a small smile as you spoke. You waited with baited breath to see if your words had any sway over the Chieftains son. Eagle Flies brows knitted together as he looked at you.
“Fine. I’ll leave it this time, but I will not let these animals torture us for much longer” he said before walking away.
Rains Fall shook his head as he looked at his headstrong son before bowing his head in thanks to you.
“Thank you miss, thank you. And Charles, thank you, my thanks to you both. There’s a free tent over there, please feel free to stay the night, everything here is at your disposal.”
You thanked the Cheiftain before Charles turned to you. “So, it seems a little late to travel back to Lakay. Are you happy to stay the night here?”
You nodded, a night away from the swamp was exactly what you wanted.
You both stayed by the campfire as you ate and listened to the tribes stories. Charles braided a feather into your hair to say thank you for braiding his own and you blushed when you noticed a group of young women giggled at the sight of Charles playing with your hair softly. You remember reading about how braiding things into people’s hair in Charles’ culture meant a lot, each braid, feather or bead had a different symbol and you wondered what the feather Charles had chosen for your hair meant.
After a while Charles got into a conversation with Rains Fall and you took the opportunity to go away from the crowd and admire the view the reservation had over the heartlands.
With Colter behind you and Valentine not far in-front, you were reminded of Javier. Of the journeys you had taken with him, of the night you had seen him flirt with a woman at the saloon in Valentine and how that night had very nearly been the night you confessed your feelings for him. You were reminded of how much you missed him, of how you would never see him again or feel his arms around you, you would never hear his soft “good morning mi amor” greetings in the morning or the way he kissed you and whispered “te amo” in your ear when he made love to you. He was gone. Half your family was gone.
“Everything ok?”
You wiped your tears away before turning to nod at Charles. He stood next to you, silent, comforting. You rest your head on his shoulder as he stood close.
“Sorry Charles, I know I’ve not been the best company of late” you told him.
“Don’t apologise hummingbird. You have lost a lot, I can’t even begin to imagine how you feel.”
You looked up at him. “You’ve lost people before Charles, you know how that feels.”
He nodded once. “Been a lone wolf for a long time though, this gang is the first time I’ve been around people for more than a week or two in a long time.”
You frowned at his admission of truth. “Must have been hard to be alone for that long. Is there, is there anyone you feel close to, someone you care about?”
He met your gaze, his eyes tracing over your face before he swallowed. He nodded once. “Mm, there’s one person I care for, more than anyone else, more than I’ve ever cared for anyone actually but, I’m not sure she feels the same way.”
You stared down at Charles’ full lips before you met his stare and something in you snapped. You leaned up and pressed your lips against his own. Charles’ hand went to your neck as you kissed, holding you close as he deepened the kiss, his lips covering your own before he parted them, allowing you to dip your tongue into his mouth, deepening the kiss enough to make him growl. Your hands went to his chest feeling the sheer muscles beneath his shirt clench as he tried to keep some self-control. But it didn’t take long before you remembered Javier and felt a sense of guilt.
You pulled away, leaning your head down as Charles’ lips rest on your forehead. “Sorry Charles, I, Javier, it’s too soon, I’m sorry.”
He nodded, kissing your forehead gently before pulling away enough to look down at you. “It’s alright, I understand.”
“I’m so sorry Charles” you whispered, getting upset again.
Charles’ hand shot out to wipe your tears away. “Hummingbird, it’s alright, you don’t need to apologise. Come on, let’s go to bed.”
He led you to the free tent and closed it behind you both. As you both prepared for bed, Charles placed the blanket over you both, giving you the main half of it. It was cold outside, up in the mountains.
“Will you, will you hold me?”
Charles wasted no time in scooting closer to you, spooning you from behind as he held you close, keeping you safe from the cold mountain air in his warm arms and protected in his all-encompassing hold. You stroked his hands gently as they held your waist.
“I’m sorry Charles, sorry for not being here with you the way you want me to be. Everything’s, everything is so wrong, how could everything go so wrong?”
Charles kissed your hair gently as he nuzzled you. “Everything will be alright my hummingbird, just you wait. It will all be alright, I’m here, I’m not leaving you. I’ll be here as long as you need me.”
You listened to Charles’ words, eventually falling asleep to his soothing voice as he held you tight, protecting you from the outside world, and all the pain it had caused you lately.

Valentine’s Day
a oneshot to celebrate our pretty fairy boys 
time did not so much as exist in the land of the faerie; the Fair Folk viewed time as more of an inconvenience than anything else. time was for the mortals they abhorred so vehemently and it would always necessitate an end to something gleeful and mischievous: one could not stop dancing if they had no way to measure when they started
as such the logical progression of time to which Mark Blackthorn was accustomed became a thing of the past as soon as the shackles closed around his wrists and he was carted away from his family to the Hunt. many things became forgotten things, forbidden things, forsaken things, but barely anything plagued Mark’s mind as much as time did. how could he begin to fathom the immensity of the punishment he had been condemned to? his days stretched out in front of him, innumerable and infinite. there was no time in the Hunt, only duty.
Kieran’s arrival was a turning point; if he were to look back on his time in the Hunt, now, Mark would think of it as ante and post, before and after Kieran. before was dark and ruthless and mind-numbingly painful. after was still dark and ruthless, but there was something at least. not a hope, exactly, but a reason. a purpose. eventually, a love.
for some reason, Kieran could navigate the perilous Faerie perceptions of time with more ease than Mark. not for lack of trying, though—often they would lie in the grass after some unnecessary decimation and in trying to forget the horror their hands had caused, Kieran would try to teach Mark how to read the stars or the passage of the sun to gauge time in human measures. it was largely futile—Mark didn’t much like to look at the stars. all he saw were his siblings, every constellation bore their names and the phantom smiles of the childhood they’d shared.
some days were worse than others. on the particularly bad ones, there was no room for words in the spaces their labored breathing occupied; the only way to keep sanity in such physically taxing situations was to physically tax their bodies even more. these days were for sex. and while Mark enjoyed Kieran’s body and Kieran his, sex did not equate with intimacy the way it did in the human world. intimacy came on the gentle days, the days where the Hunt traveled to hinterlands with rivers of sweet mulberry wine flowing naturally across the countryside or when the ripe intoxication of low-hanging fruit was not a mirage or a trick but real comfort. these days were for intimacy, for intertwining their limbs and breathing in each other’s shadows in the sunlit patch of some forgotten meadow while the others danced in revels and caused all sorts of mischief. on these days, Mark could almost forget the abyss his heart had become; these days made the sluggish thud of blood in his veins quicken so he felt almost human again.
once upon a time, it had neared the end of a gentle day when Kieran had turned to Mark, brushing the wisps of his hair out of his eyes. Kieran’s hair was a light, incandescent blue, so pale it was almost white; it caught the light in so many puzzling and astonishing ways that made Mark forget he had bones in his body. “it would be Valentine’s day in your world, my love,” Kieran had whispered, and it had felt like such a sweet treachery, knowing someone else who knew the passage of time in his world. Mark reached behind his head to grasp at the daisy-looking flowers he knew grew in these parts; flowers like this were made for chains and crowns and other whimsical things, but he settled for picking one and placed it in Kieran’s hair. it made the prince look younger, softened the harsh planes of his face even more so he looked like someone who Mark could get away with calling cupcake. 
“Be my Valentine?” Mark had enquired. It was meant half in jest, but he still remembered the way hearts were supposed to flutter when one gazed upon someone beautiful and asked them to be their own. Kieran never actually responded to his question but plucked a daisy himself, placing it into the crook between Mark’s left ear and temple.
You are mine as I am yours, the gesture said. Tis, after all, the season of love.

that was SO FREAKING CUTE I WAS SCREAMING INTERNALLY WHILE READING IT!!!!!!!!!!!
honestly it's such an accurate depiction of two 17 year olds on a first date because I was reading it and I was like damn. that was me when I was 17 on my first few real dates. (IM IN THIS PICTURE AND I DONT LIKE IT!!!!)
I was both Kieran (a big idiot who thought no one liked me and it was all a cruel joke) and Juliana (purposefully acting clumsy and saying certain things to get a rile out of my now boyfriend). she ain't slick!!!!! girl knows what she's doing!!!!
(also please not Kieran being the underdressed bf and Juliana being the overdressed gf..,)
as always *chefs kiss* thank you so much for the feast. 💖💖💖💖
(Context: A Sugary Sweet Kiss Oneshot fic)
AWWWW, THANK YOUUUU. That means a lot!! I wanted it to be good since it's a stand-alone, and I'm so glad it hit the way it did!! 💛💛💛

Picture this >:3
Valentines Day is approaching, but Kieran can't find the perfect gift for his Juliana, so after searching the Internet for far too long he finally has an idea.
TO MAKE JULIANA A PERSONLISED BOUQUET OF FLOWERS!!!
Carnations - Fascination, Love (Fascination for how Kieran is seemingly fascinated with Juliana after she beats Carmine at the start of the teal mask).
heliotrope - Everlasting love (No matter what hardships they face, aka half of the indigo disk. Kieran will still love Juliana and vice versa).
Marigolds - gratitude, Bliss, Pleasure. (Kieran's is grateful that Juliana had stayed by his side and that Juliana is such a pleasure to be around).
Sunflowers - Loyalty, Adoration, good luck (Loyalty because well, it just reminds me of the Loyal Three and because Juliana is the sun whilst Kieran is the moon).
And finally Red Roses - True love. (I don't need to say anything more).
It may seem like a weird assortment to others, but when you know the meanings you realise that everything was chosen for a reason...
I just hope Juliana doesn't have an allergy to flowers hehe...
AHHHH I LOVE HOW YOU MADE THEM COLORFUL HOW DID YOU DO THAT AND ALSO!!! THE ATTENTNION TO DETIAL ----
I'm TAKING NOTES FOR A ONESHOT
