— subtle physical affection prompts 𓆩♡𓆪

i hope everyone is having a great new year so far! enjoy :D

pushing strands of their hair out of their face

brushing the dust of their clothes

wiping off a food stain near their lips (bonus: you lick it off your fingers)

briefly tracing the lines of their palms

patiently helping them put their shoes on

teasingly playing with the string of their hoodie

nose boops

comparing hand sizes

accidentally grazing their hands as both of you are reaching for the same object

gentle massages for their shoulders

delicately putting your hand on their back

playful stabs with your fingers onto the side of their waist

ever so light forehead pecks

[wynnd-citrus]

Italian dad forehead kisses hehehehehe I love them

THIS IS NOT ST@RKER ‼️‼️‼️ ST@RKERS DNI OR YOU WILL BE BLOCKED WITHOUT HESITATION 🤮

[roachbot]

Hugging is not enough let me into your bloodstream

[creativepromptsforwriting]

seeking out physical affection

comparing hand-sizes to hold their hand against the other's and then just holding hands

leaning against the other one in close spaces

acting like they're cold to have an excuse to cuddle or share clothes or blankets

brushing a strand of hair away

grabbing each other's hands in crowds or when crossing the street to "be safe"

turning their cheek to get the other one to give them a peck

brushing their arm against the other's, hoping the other would finally catch their arm and hold it close

fixing the other's hairstyle to let their hands run through their partner's hair

draping the arm around their shoulder while sitting next to each other

lightly tickling the other one, almost hoping it gets retaliated

reaching out with their hand without saying anything, wanting the other one to grab it

linking arms when walking around together

trying to get the other to dance with them

bumping shoulders into each other

wrapping arms around the other's neck when standing behind them

[sleeplessv0id]

being snuggly and cuddly at heart 🤝 having a crippling fear of being a bother.

🗡️ Oh, love, don’t let me go

won’t you take me where the streetlights glow? 🗡️ physical affection prompts

Tight hugs that feel like coming home after a long time away

Eskimo kisses!!!

Tracing constellations between freckles and moles

Reaching for their hand in a crowd, knowing they’ll guide you through safely

Cradling their face in your hands, thumb brushing against the creases of their smile

Kissing the back of their hand and gently squeezing it before leaving

Dog piles on a couch with limbs all askew yet very comfortable

After a terrible joke, flicking their arm or hand

Les bises (cheek kisses) upon greeting them

A hearty clap of joy on the back

Hidden tangling of the legs under a table or blanket

Resting your chin on their shoulder, arms wrapping them in a gentle embrace from behind

Friendly sparring while waiting around (if actual swords are included that’s even better)

Twirling them around in a big hug, bursting into laughter when you almost topple over

Sneakily finding the right moment to slip an ice cold hand up their shirt

Washing their back in the shower for them

When they’re injured or sick, carefully carrying them where they need to go

Secret handshakes just for fun

Hip-checking, either like a salsa dancer’s final move or a itty bitty bump for acknowledgment

Detangling or braiding their hair as their head rests in your lap

Spooning (big or little spoon, it’s nice 10/10 highly recommend)

Pressing a warm hand into their side/stomach/back to alleviate cramps or muscle strains

Scratching that ridiculously hard to reach spot for them

Brief shoulder massages when they’re stressed

Curling into their chest, protected from everything in the world for that moment

Sunday and Physical Affection HC's ౨ৎ ˖ ࣪⊹

a/n: credit to @random-thoughts-uwu for inspiring me and helping me with this cw: none, mildly suggestive if you squint real hard, just Sunday being awkward cutie pie, established relationship fluff and humor, no physical descriptions besides fem!reader and reader has shoulders and ankles

ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ˚₊‧꒰ა ♡ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚɞ ʚ��

So say Sunday and you are in a relationship, most likely married. He grew up in a pretty cult-like sheltered environment and his only source of love and comfort was his sister Robin till they parted ways. So the adjustment from "have no attachments imperfection is weak" to hugs and kisses must've been jarring.

When you first tried to hold hands he flinched and swatted your hand away saying that it was inappropriate in a public setting

"No heart emojis before marriage" (already engaged and after marriage he only did pink or blue hearts for a long while)

Says "GOOD HEAVENS" and "how scandalous" whenever he sees you wearing something even slightly revealing, literally blushed at seeing your ankles, even though y'all live together and sleep in the same bed

Gasps when you leaned on him and hugged his arm, while giving him a certain look

Literally a blushing mess just from kissing you, on the cheek

Can't make eye contact with you and covers his face with his wings when he's embarrassed if he gets uncharacteristically needy

Huffs at kissing scenes in movies

He saw your shoulder and nearly fainted

Let's just say he's not that experienced in certain aspects of life and romantic relationships (you can teach him though 😏)

One time he got a little carried away kissing you and couldn't stop apologizing for a few love marks on your shoulder he accidentally left

THERE IS MORE I KNOW IT

Just a quick lil thing

[whumpster-dumpster]

Whumpee leaning on Caretaker. They don't even really need anything at the moment but a point of contact with Caretaker makes them feel safe so they just...prop themself there for a bit

You should have known better than to let Aventurine pick the movie. What started as a casual night of gambling-themed horror ended with you clutching the blankets, heart pounding from the eerie visuals still burned into your mind. Even now, in the quiet darkness of the bedroom, you could still see those grotesque figures lurking in the shadows.

A rustling sound beside you made you jolt, only to be met with Aventurine’s soft chuckle.

"Darling, if you squeeze that blanket any tighter, you might just strangle it," he teased, rolling onto his side to face you. His magenta and cyan eyes glowed faintly in the dim light, amusement flickering in their depths.

You huffed, still shaken. "It’s your fault! You picked the scariest one."

"And you went along with it," he pointed out smugly, propping himself up on one elbow. His overcoat had long been discarded, leaving him in a silk pajama top with the first few buttons undone, a sight that would normally be distracting—if you weren’t currently terrified.

Aventurine sighed dramatically, reaching out to brush his fingers against your cheek. "Alright, alright. I suppose it's only fair that I make amends. How about this?" He tapped his chin, pretending to consider. "I’ll make you a bet. If you can stay awake for another hour, I’ll owe you a favor. Any favor."

You frowned. "How does that help me sleep?"

"Ah, you misunderstand. Because I guarantee you won’t last five minutes," he said smoothly. Before you could protest, he slid closer, wrapping an arm around your waist and pulling you flush against him. His body was warm, a stark contrast to the lingering chill of fear in your veins.

With gentle ease, Aventurine started murmuring in a low, velvety voice—nonsense words at first, laced with amusement, before shifting into a slow, rhythmic hum. His fingers traced idle patterns along your back, lulling you into a trance-like state.

"See, sweetheart? No ghosts, no monsters. Just you, me, and a very comfortable bed," he whispered.

Despite yourself, your eyes grew heavier. His voice, his warmth, the steady beat of his heart—all of it was grounding, safe.

"You’re cheating," you mumbled sleepily.

Aventurine chuckled, placing a feather-light kiss against your forehead. "I never play fair."

And with that, you drifted off, nightmares forgotten.

The moment you woke up trembling from your nightmare, Robin noticed. She had been lightly dozing beside you, but the way you curled into yourself, breathing unevenly, made her reach out immediately.

"Darling?" Her voice was soft, a gentle melody in the quiet night.

You swallowed thickly, trying to shake off the lingering fear. "I—It’s nothing. Just... that stupid horror movie."

Robin sat up, her hair cascading over her shoulder as she turned to you. Even in the dim glow of the bedside lamp, her luminous eyes held warmth and understanding. Without a word, she shifted closer, wrapping her arms around you in a comforting embrace.

"Would you like me to sing for you?" she murmured against your temple.

You nodded, pressing yourself into her warmth.

Robin’s voice was a gift, a celestial sound that had captivated audiences across the cosmos. But here, in the privacy of your shared space, her lullaby was something more—intimate, soothing. The melody was slow and tender, wrapping around you like a protective cocoon.

As she sang, she stroked your hair, her touch feather-light and reassuring. "There’s nothing to fear, my love," she whispered between verses. "I am here."

The rhythmic rise and fall of her voice, combined with the gentle pressure of her embrace, slowly eased the tension in your body. Your eyelids grew heavy, the terrifying images from your nightmare fading into the soft lull of her song.

Just as sleep claimed you once more, you felt Robin press a kiss to your forehead, her voice fading into a whisper.

"Sweet dreams, my love."

The nightmare had left you shaken, and Jiaoqiu could tell the moment you stiffened beside him in bed. Without a word, he slipped out of the blankets, moving gracefully despite the dim lighting.

You sat up, watching as he disappeared into the next room. A moment later, the soft clinking of porcelain and the faint scent of herbs filled the air.

When Jiaoqiu returned, he carried a delicate teacup in his hands, steam rising from the surface. "Chamomile and honey," he said, offering it to you. "Drink. It will help."

You accepted it gratefully, the warmth seeping into your fingers. Taking a sip, you sighed as the soothing flavors melted some of your lingering unease.

Jiaoqiu sat beside you, his large fox ears twitching slightly as he observed you with quiet concern. "Nightmares are tricky things," he mused. "Even when you know they aren't real, they cling to you."

You nodded, staring into the tea. "Yeah… I still feel like something's watching me."

A flicker of something unreadable passed through his eyes. Then, with a small, knowing smile, he reached for one of your hands, guiding it toward his fox ears.

"Here," he murmured. "Pet them."

Your breath hitched. "Are you sure?"

Jiaoqiu chuckled, the sound soft and low. "If it will help you sleep, then yes."

Tentatively, you reached up, running your fingers through the soft fur. It was even silkier than you had imagined, warmth radiating beneath your touch. Jiaoqiu let out a content sigh, his tail curling slightly behind him.

"Better?" he asked, voice quieter now.

You nodded, the repetitive motion grounding you. Between the tea, his warmth, and the soft comfort of his fur, the fear slowly ebbed away.

Jiaoqiu leaned in, whispering against your ear, "You are safe with me."

And in that moment, you truly believed him.

You jolted awake, your heart pounding. The room was silent, save for the steady rhythm of Dan Heng’s breathing beside you.

You tried to steady yourself, but the remnants of the horror movie still clung to your thoughts. A hand suddenly brushed against yours, grounding you.

Dan Heng stirred, eyes flickering open. "Another nightmare?"

You hesitated before nodding. He sat up, running a hand through his tousled hair. Instead of speaking, he reached for the book on his nightstand.

"Come here," he said gently, opening it.

You shifted closer, resting your head against his shoulder as he began to read. His voice was steady, low, and soothing, the rhythmic cadence of each word lulling you away from your fear.

Dan Heng rarely offered comfort in obvious ways, but this—his warmth, the steady hum of his voice, the way he subconsciously traced circles against your arm—was enough.

Minutes passed, your eyelids growing heavier with each page. Sensing your drowsiness, Dan Heng adjusted his grip, gently pulling you into his embrace.

"You’re safe," he murmured against your hair, his voice barely above a whisper.

And with that, you finally let sleep take you, nightmares forgotten in the safety of his arms.

Is it alright for you to make physical affection headcanons about Anxiety? I would LOVE reading a little smooching headcanons too😗 If not I don’t mind at all ^^

Helloo, thank you for the request! I myself am a huge fan of hugs and all, so this was really fun to write!

~Anxiety physical affection hcs~

I think Anxiety would really enjoy physical affection, especially from her significant other. In the movie she is pretty touchy with all of the emotions she interacts with, so it’s probably safe to say that she’s comfortable with physical touch.

I feel like she would be a bit scared to directly ask you for stuff like hugs or cuddles, in fear of coming off to strong or demanding. She might subtly hint at it, sitting herself slightly closer to you, mentioning how it’s a bit cold in here, all those tricks, and she’s so cheesy with it too.

“Boy, it sure is freezing in Riley’s mind today.. if only a very pretty significant other of mine would be oh so kind, and help me warm up”

Other times however, I feel like she would get sudden bursts of confidence and just hug onto you. Anxiety is defo extremely clingy, though she apologizes for it a lot. She just can’t help it!

Emotions like Ennui or Anger might tease you two for how lovey dovey you’re being all the time, causing Anxiety to hide her face away in embarrassment, whilst letting out a whimper. Either that, or she would roll her eyes at them, she sometimes gets low key sassy in the movie, like when she slapped Envy’s hand away.

She probably loves sitting squished together with you in her massage chair whenever she’s stressed. Listening to your heartbeat and letting the chair massage the both of you always calms her down, causing a large and goofy smile to spread across her face.

Whenever something happens to Riley that stresses her out, she would probably immediately reach out for your hand, squeezing it tightly, like a lifeline (you probably told her to do that instead of pulling at her hair so much, it’s not good for her).

Anxiety is suuuuper blushy, you can’t tell me otherwise. If you give her an unexpected kiss or hug, she might just scream out of surprise, then blush like crazy whilst apologizing-

We all know that Anxiety struggles a lot with sleepless nights, due to the book ‘go to sleep Anxiety’. Origami helps her a lot, but cuddling with her lovely partner helps even more~

SHES 100% A LITTLE SPOON-

Anxiety loves feeling your arms around her and hearing your soft breath at night, it makes her feel protected and safe<33

Honestly I feel like her main love language would be words of affirmation (she really needs the reassurance that you actually love and care about her), but physical touch would be right behind it.

When it comes to kissing, I feel like Anxiety would be reaaaally anxious about it. She would most definitely over-analyze it, researching how to be an awesome kisser #rizz (omfg I gotta stop)

She probably watched some YouTube tutorials or smth

Anxiety is so awkward in the cutest way possible, I swear-

Once she’s gotten the hang of it, and had a few experiences, she stresses less about it though of kissing.

Just be careful she doesn’t accidentally swallow you whole with that big mouth of hers/jk

Anxiety loves giving you sweet little kisses on the cheek and on the top of your head, she feels it shows that she cares.

She would probably be a bit more nervous about full on “on the mouth” kisses, not to mention make out sessions, and would prefer it if you took the lead of those activities, instead of her.

Look at her bro-

[jcollinswrites]

How cuddly are the ros on a scale from 1-10

Narmer: 5 maybe, but it also depends on his mood

Qenna: can range a lot depending on what kind of day they are having

Zaia: not really cuddly, but they will be very close physically, like sitting close to MC and such

Tabiry: very cuddly, but only if her partner likes it

Ahmose: loves physical affection and cuddles, but mostly just in private

[backalleycatgirl]

[questionable-idea]
