Ooooooo
I have come, with something!
So, imagine reader is a young adult instead of the teen. They already gone through the system, was never adopted, so they have a lot of resentment to parents and such. And they actually work in the school as an assistant teacher. The team thing happens and when reader realizes they were being used, they quit, and after, cut out anything showing they’re a mutant. Maybe filling the claws way down to look like normal nails, or if it’s like wolverine’s, they use a rock to break it.
How would everyone react to seeing reader after that, either fresh from their self mutilation, or some days after?
Thanks for reading my rant!
🌂
Oooooo... Okay, okay, that's interesting! I still plan to have Reader as a teen in the main au, but Reader as a young adult? Not bad, if I say so. I'm going to count this as an au of the Smilodon AU, because I have an idea for how Reader finding all of this out goes, but... I really like this ask. So good job! Let's do it-
If the others, the X-Men and Brotherhood, saw Reader like that... I think they'd feel nauseous. Light-headed. Sick. Because their... whatever Reader is to them, is missing parts of their mutation, the parts that were part of them. Their claws... they're filed down, hardly there anymore.. Their fangs... not near as long or sharp as they used to be. And the small bits of fur or fluff that used to dot their arms and legs... they're gone, leaving the skin underneath. This isn't what they wanted. They wanted Reader as their, well... okay, they had used Reader. They didn't want to, in the end, and the teens wanted to stop it, but- They just couldn't. They tried. The adults... they feel remorse. A bit scared. Because now they know Reader can and will harm themself (and likely had before). When Xavier looks deeper into Reader's thoughts, he sees their inner-self, and it isn't a monster or a beast or an evil person... it's a scared, lonely, hurt child, who wants love, but has been denied it so long that they don't trust anyone. And after what all they've done... Reader doesn't even trust them anymore...
Xavier, Scott, and Jean would try to speak rationally with Reader (their version of rational). It goes out the window real quick when Reader's thoughts turn darker, sadder, spiraling. Scott wants to know why Reader did what they did, because he's sorry, and wants them to know they care. He wants them to see it their way. But he mostly wants to make things better between them. Jean wants to help Reader, and comfort them, but now there's a literal mental wall between them, full of bitterness. She wants to reach them,, to stop them from doing this to themself... Xavier wants to convince Reader they meant no harm, and to give them and the X-Men a proper chance to make it up to them. He knows that Reader will be hard to convince. But they have to hold out hope. If worse came to worse... they can try and move Reader in with them, albeit unwillingly. It might be the only way to keep an eye on them and their health...
Kurt, Kitty, Ororo, and Beast regret getting Reader's hopes up, only for the truth to come out about why they started trying to befriend them in the first place. Seeing Reader remove parts of their mutation, leaving them almost defenseless... Kurt feels scared. He has a visible mutation as well, and while he hid his with the holo watch, Reader didn't have something like that. And they got rid of parts of themself! It's... it's so hard to look at... Kitty wants to hug Reader, wants forgiveness. She's so sorry about what happened, she wants them to know that! But... why would Reader hurt themself? Are they hiding any other wounds? What If they hurt themself again?... Storm is doing her best to stay calm and motherly, which sadly doesn't get her very far. She knows they've hurt Reader, and it doesn't feel good, for Reader or for them. But they need to own up to it. The best they can do is apologize, and hope Reader forgives them, or at least doesn't hurt themself further. Perhaps getting Hank to talk with them would be better... Hank would try and help them, would try to talk with Reader. He wants to provide therapy, or at least get them to have a medical exam. He needs to know how bad they hurt themself. But they're not budging. He doesn't want Charles to force Reader. No. But if they want to help them, they need them under their care. And sadly, Reader does not want to be under their care or protection after everything...
Rogue, Evan, and Logan feel guilty. They know they didn't trust Reader at first. That they didn't want to give them the benefit of the doubt. But seeing how bad it's hurt them, that they'd rather hurt themself than them... It's a tough pill to swallow. Reader already had trust issues. They already didn't have a high opinion of themself. And they just made those a whole lot worse. Rogue is truly sorry, wanting to have Reader stay with them so they don't hurt themself or disappear. She's scared that if they look away from them, they'll be gone. That Reader will leave, or worse, be dead. Evan wants to apologize, but he also wants Reader to give them a second chance. Even his aunt is in on it, and maybe Reader would believe two of them over just one? He really wants them to not give up on them... Logan knows he hasn't handled knowing Reader very well. He knew about some of their past, and wrote them off as a bad influence. And they weren't. They're the cub of his "brother" (he doesn't know if that fuzzy maniac is his brother or not), but they've never even met the guy, let alone know who he was. It wasn't fair of him to get mad with them, to treat them as a potential threat. Seeing them harm themself though... It makes him realize that they had every chance to go after all of them, but instead they turned on themself. And for that... he realizes he shouldn't have been been hard. So cold.
The Brotherhood teens want to throw up. Their favorite assistant teacher, the one who tended to see the best in them, is missing parts of themself, or has cut them down. And it scares the cr*p out of them. This is their favorite teacher! Their go-to adult in school when things go wrong or people won't leave them alone! And they've. Hurt. Themself. They didn't want to use them! They swear! But... they're not sure this is an easy fix. This isn't as simple as saying sorry. This had consequences, and they've (mostly) learned that one has to own up to them, no matter what they be. Lance doesn't want to imagine Reader leaving them. They're the one adult he trusts. And now they're scared, or at least wary, of all of them. The X-Teens are in the same boat, so while he hates to say it, he might have to work with them to get Reader to stay, and hopefully heal and regrow their claws and fangs and fuzz. Todd feels sick. He didn't realize they could do that. They could actually remove parts of their mutation? Just like that? Thinking about it gives him shivers. Who would give their powers up? Who'd willingly hurt themself? He understands why they'd do it, he just wishes they hadn't. Fred wants to hug Reader and cry. His favorite adult (who's only a few years older than all of them) just hurt themself. And is upset with them. And is sad. He doesn't want them to be upset! Or hurt! He's trying to apologize, and is on the same boat as Lance to get the X-Teens help in apologizing, if it means Reader might forgive them. Pietro knows what they did. He knows it was wrong. Is he sorry?... Yes. But he still wants Reader with them. Seeing them they way they are... he still thinks they should be with them, even more now. They need help. His dad can get help, okay? H*ck, if they have to, they can pull Sabretooth in, okay?! He just... he doesn't want Reader to hurt themself even more. They're nice, and pay attention to him and his sister, good attention. How can they let them hurt? Wanda is asking Reader why they did it. She wants to know Reader's perspective on this, on why they did it, how they feel about them all. She doesn't want to hurt them, and she won't, but Reader needs help. She will not have her favorite adult die on her or hurt themself, so they'd better hurry up and go to her father or Xavier and get them involved, otherwise, they're going to have a problem. Mystique feels for Reader. Being distrusted by everyone. Having mutations that single them out. It hurts. It hurts her even more knowing she has hurt Reader with her actions. But this proves to her Reader needs a team. A group. She's grateful Reader hasn't taken their anger or hurt out on them, like their father might have. She knows they deserve it. But... she isn't sure if they should turn to... the X-Men... blegh... or to Magneto... who she's mad with... And unfortunately, those are her two options. The joys of being an adult, being responsible... Hopefully they can reach Reader before it could be too late...

If your still taking request is it okay if you can do yandere platonic Joel and yandere platonic Ellie x reader that is also immune and the same age as ellie and do you know the hospital scene where Joel saves Ellie but can you do it with both Ellie and Joel going apeshit on Marlene and the soldiers after she told them that reader offer to the surgery because reader wanted to help them get the cure (and maybe get away from Joel and Ellie?) while ellie and Joel were still passed out:D
You're going to be okay. (Platonic yandere Joel and Ellie x reader.)
A/n: So, I've been thinking a lot about the hospital scene, and this ask inspired me to write about it. This isn't going to follow exactly the ask, but will involve the hospital scene (Sorta, it'll be mentioned), so I hope you enjoy. This will also mostly be Ellie's point of view.
Tumblr media
Ellie didn't remember much from that day. She remembered saying goodbye to you, seeing a giraffe for the first time, and then getting knocked out.
So, when she woke up in the car in a hospital gown and a raging headache, she was heavily confused. As she sat up, she looked around the car, and then in the rearview mirror, where Joel was looking right at her. He was quiet, and his face held an emotion she couldn't quite place.
"Hey, hey, you're good." Joel said as he noticed Ellie's panic. His eyes were now on the road. Ellie was confused, scared even. She didn't know where they were or where they were going, and she couldn't find you.
"What happened?" Joel knew that she was referring to the fireflies, but he didn't know what to say. "Where's (Y/N)?"
"They're in Jackson, remember." He avoided her first question, watching as she sat all the way up, his eyes moving back towards the road pensively.
Ellie nodded to no one in particular, looking out the window. It was a wall of green, trees enveloping the sides of the road. It was calming in a sense, her heartbeat calming as the car drove down the road.
"What happened?" Ellie asked again, hearing Joel sigh.
"They were doing some test, bunch of people there." He started. "All of them, like you." The words tumbled out of his mouth like an avalanche, unable to contain them.
"When they learned you were immune..." He paused, unable to continue. His voice wavered as he continued to talk. "They were going to take you away from me. from (Y/N). So, we left."
Ellie's eye never left the window, even as tears rained down her face. She knew he was lying. She didn't know how to feel though. She wanted to be angry, she wanted to lash out. But she knew that wasn't the answer. And what if he was right, what if they were trying to take you away from her? What if she never saw you again?
"(Y/N)...they wouldn't be able to handle it, if you left. They need you." Joel added.
"Okay." The sound came out stilted as she continued to watch the trees.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeol remembered that day. He remembered waking up alone, Ellie nowhere in sight. He remembered Marlene telling him what they were going to do to Ellie, his daughter. And he remembered the blind rage that overtook him as he murdered everyone in that hospital.
Joel doesn't regret anything about that night, other than allowing Ellie to be taken by the fireflies. He didn't regret killing the doctor, killing Marlene, or lying to Ellie. It's his job as a father to protect his children, and he will do that by any means necessary.
When Joel drives him and Ellie back to Jackson, he thinks of you. He wonders what you're doing, if Tommy's taking good care of you. He doesn't doubt it, Tommy's a good kid.
He wonders if you miss him, if you miss Ellie. He wonders if you lay awake at night, thinking the same thing, if they miss you.
Joel doesn't regret what he did, because he knew you'd be heartbroken if Ellie died. He knew a piece of your family would be missing and it would destroy you.
So, in honesty, he really didn't lie to Ellie. Everything he told her was true, just...hidden under a layer of protectiveness. He needed to keep you two safe. Ellie didn't need to know what happened that day, all she needed to know is that she has people who will protect her, regardless of the cost.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Are you okay?"
Ellie turns her head to look at you. You were laying side by side, a book in your hands. She's dazed, eyes cloudy and confused. You're looking at her with a slight worry. She gives a slight nod, a hum coming from her mouth. Her gaze leaves you and returns to the ceiling.
"Are you sure?" Ellie doesn't respond to the follow up question, her sights locked in on the ceiling above her. She hears you sigh, and the bed shifts.
"You haven't been the same since..." You don't finish your sentence, but Ellie knows what you mean.
"You don't talk as much, you're always alone." The whole room is quiet, but somehow your words are even quieter. Ellie still hears you though, her turning her head towards you.
"I don't know if it's my fault but, if it is..."
"It not." Ellie chooses to interrupt you. "It's not your fault."
Ellie has tried so hard to remember that they, and she's tried to trust Joel. But deep down, she knows he's lying. But a part of her, a small, small part of her wants it all to be true. She doesn't want to except the idea that Joel purposely lied about what happened just to cover up...something.
She doesn't want to except it because if she does, that means that you wouldn't miss her if she dies. If she left, your life would keep on moving, and she was scared.
Ellie takes hold of your hand, shocking you again. Her gaze is intense, but you can feel the desperation behind it.
"Promise me you won't leave." She breaths out, her voice shaky with each word.
"Promise me that no matter what happens, you won't leave me." She asks again.
"I promise." You rely. Ellie exhales, looking back up at the ceiling. Her hand doesn't leave yours.
Ellie knows one day you're going to grow up, mature, and realize that her and Joel are crazy overprotective of you and that it's unhealthy. She knows that one day you're going to want to leave, and if kills her inside.
Because you and Joel are all she has.
Ellie has lost everyone who's ever cared about her. So, even if it means living a lie, she'll do what she can to stay by your side.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a/n: I honestly don't know how to feel about this, but I hope you enjoy.

December Event 2023 masterpost
It's that time of year again! And to celebrate here's (eventually) 12 gifts!
Tumblr media
Half is raffled fics and the other half is art that was up for claiming!
As I post them, they'll be updated with links and probably descriptions if I don't totally forget. If you won the raffle I'll pop into the DMs soon for details on your fic!
Gifted fics!
Connections and Party Favors - (@spitfire-of-the-sea)
It wasn't like Saki had any other plans for Christmas, so it seemed like a decent idea to go to her supervisor's family Christmas party. Although no one could have predicted she would hit it off with the hot-headed, well-meaning youngest brother, Ace. Or maybe Marco and Thatch knew all along.
Saki (OC) X Ace
The Doctor will See You Now +18 (@akagami-no-laney)
It's the last day before Doctor Hongo goes on his much deserved vacation. And as his secretary, it's your job to ensure everything is cleaned up. Though you'd never dream of scheduling a 'consultation' with the handsome doctor, it seems he may have cleared his schedule just for you.
Hongo X Fem!Reader
Mountainside Slide (+18) - (@cyborg-franky)
Ace had the brilliant idea of snowboarding down the mountain when they could have just stayed on the beach. Ray was willing to entertain this, but he could have done without the avalanche. Oh well, at least Marco was there and managed to take them to a hot spring.
If only Ace's bad ideas ended there.
Marco X Ace X OC(Ray)
(No sex occurs but is discussed)
Coming Home For Christmas +18 (@cebwrites)
With the changing of the season, Kirin is discovering a whole new world of freezing winter weather, longer nights, shorter days, and this strange new holiday called "Christmas". Curious and intrigued by a season of giving, he temps Law into celebrating. With all their baggage about 'family' and 'forgiveness' can Law resist? Or is there a way to make both of them happy?
Frankenstein!OC(Kirin) X Law
The Intent Matters - (@humanoid606)
You never had a chance to really get into the holidays, your family making sure of that. But things are different now, the Strawhats would make sure of it.
Nonbinary!Reader & Yandere!Strawhats (Platonic)
Shaking the Snow Globe -(me)
The sister islands, Winter and Summer Isle, were a perfect destination vacation for the holidays! Everyone gets to pick their poison between idyllic beaches and pristine snow tops! What's not to love? And Thatch gets to see his favorite ranger! But it seems this is a bad time, with constant blizzards threatening Winter Isle. Fraught with worry, Thatch makes his way to ensure her safety, but what about his?
Thatch X OC(Nikia)
Gifted art!
Santa: A Picture to Remember (@crocodad3)
Dragon and Crocodile did not expect the traditional picture with Santa at the mall to be this difficult. Who knew it would be "On Sight" for Luffy, though he's clearly not the only one with beef for this Santa.
Snowfall: Fun and Games (@onepieceisbestpieces)
It's a wonderful snow day for the Strawhats! Now if only Chopper could get Melody (OC) to stop eating dangerous substances!
By the Fire: Celebrate and Remember (@sabo-has-my-heart)
Sabo takes a moment to celebrate Luffy's accomplishments while Ace joins him in spirit.
Whiteout: Safe and Warm (me)
While the blizzard rages outside, Thatch and Nikia (OC) are safe and warm.
Lights: Walk Together (@bookandyarndragon)
Katakuri and Megara walk together, enjoying their company and the dazzling lights on display.
Present: A Big Day (@yanderefangirl)
Jinbe and Arlong--more Arlong really--went all out for Melody this Christmas.

jealousy, jealousy I
Tumblr media
characters: kaeya, diluc, childe, zhongli, xiao
requested by: @sneakylilbartender
a/n: I'm sorry for this, but childe and zhongli’s parts are blank for now. i wrote them out and all, but I'm not happy with them at the moment. they’ll be added asap. i've also split the request into two so it wouldn’t be too long. next part will include kazuha, thoma, itto and ayato. 
warnings: not fully proofread, yandere behavior, bad characterization...
Tumblr media
Kaeya
Kaeya was well aware that you harbored no romantic feelings for his adoptive brother; others thought so, but he knew both of you. He knew your mannerisms, and he could tell that while you had a good relationship, it was nothing beyond platonic.
It frustrated Kaeya. More than it should.
The faint smiles shared, the inside jokes, Diluc’s gentle protective hold around you, you absentmindedly playing with his hair when you thought no one was looking… all of it platonic. Right?
It had to be. He knew that it was just some darker part of his mind influencing him. But that made nothing better; you weren’t with Diluc, you weren’t with anyone, so why couldn’t you see how Kaeya felt? All of his gestures were brushed off as him being friendly. Kaeya had never thought that his casual flirting with people could cause this much of an obstacle for him. And as much as he and Diluc liked to cross each other, he knew that Diluc wouldn’t badmouth him or win you over out of spite. Kaeya hated to admit it, but it served to anger him even more. He couldn’t blame Diluc, or anyone else, except maybe himself.
And blame himself he did, but he couldn’t help the anger at his brother, or anyone else you seemed fond of for that matter. It concerned him, because over time he had realized that he wasn’t just in love, he was infatuated. The anger he felt was unnatural, but he couldn’t stop it. His usual remarks towards Diluc were, of course, fuelled by some sort of frustration over events that happened years ago, but this anger was different; like the peaceful moment before an inevitable avalanche. A small rock, a gust of wind, anything could set it in motion. And if he were to be entirely honest, Kaeya didn’t want that something to be you or Diluc.
He saw the man in question shoot him a look. While it wasn’t unusual for his brother to sit quietly in a corner, it wasn’t common for his glare to seem so cold. He was the first to break eye contact, downing the rest of his drink and slamming it back on the table, making a few patrons turn their heads in concern over the noise. Kaeya ignored them, and got up to head for the exit of Angels Share.
The slam of the door made you turn, wondering if that was why Diluc suddenly seemed so uneasy. He had stiffened, lost in thought as he stared ahead of him. You didn’t see anyone important though, and now that you thought about it, you didn’t really notice who was missing from the tavern either.
Tumblr media
Diluc
Diluc felt that no matter where he went, it was not far enough from you. Not to misunderstand him, he didn’t truly want you to be gone from his life, but every time he saw you, it felt as if he was losing his composure. You were a distraction; always on his mind, your smile stuck like a dart to the board, your laugh ringing in his ears, a vision always dancing in the corner of his mind. You made him happy, but when you weren’t there, he felt like he was losing his mind, worrying about where you were, who you were with, when he’d see you again. Your safety, no, you,  became his first priority, but he felt that it was wrong to become an overbearing presence. He had to remind himself that you weren’t weak, nor stupid, and most importantly - you weren’t his.
You were something he needed to get away from, permanently, because no matter how much happiness you brought him, he couldn’t stand the uncertainty. He had duties, to his winery, his employees, to Mondstadt itself. He couldn’t afford to have you around him.
So he should have been relieved - happy, even - when he saw you start trying to spend more time with others. Taking up more commissions, meeting Amber at Good Hunter, perusing the library, trying to (and mostly failing, though you took it in stride) play music with Venti. Soon enough, Diluc barely saw you around the tavern, and your visits to the winery became sparse. He should have been able to enjoy the peace of mind it brought him, and for a short while he did, until he noticed just how close you became with certain people.
A change in his schedule was all it took; much to his dismay, he needed to drop by the Favonius Headquarters to deliver some reports to Jean. A certain witch just so happened to be in the office, chatting away. Lisa was usually respectful of his dislike for smalltalk, but that particular day she seemed intent on hearing everything about his day, his week, and you. She must have noticed the sudden distance Diluc put between you two, and as a cherry on top of his already awful day, he heard your voice coming from the door behind him. Part of Diluc had expected your usual antics; greeting him with an excited hug, before going off about something you had seen, asking him questions about everything. He was partially relieved when it didn’t happen, until you entered the office with a certain Captain in tow.
You really had to go and become close with Kaeya of all people.
And Diluc noticed it immediately; how you paid him no mind. How all your attention was on Kaeya, laughing loudly, telling him about this new book you read, practically clinging on to his arm. Everything you used to do when you were with Diluc. It was like all of it hit him at once; everything he used to feel, the anxiety, the worry, the happiness, the anger, the sadness, all of it, as if Kaeya’s presence changed everything. He had to get you back - he had to make you look at him again.
Lisa slowly stopped talking; the temperature in Jean’s office suddenly seemed to rise, and was her mind playing tricks on her, or did Diluc’s vision grow a bit brighter? Why did she feel uneasy?
Tumblr media
Childe
No one paid any mind to Childe’s behavior growing more…erratic, recently. While he was one of the nicer and more approachable harbingers, he wasn’t considered to be stable, so it flew under the noses of even his closest associates. Besides, what was wrong with him seeming a bit happier than usual? At first some feared that there was some sort of plan being developed, another Osial situation, but as the weeks went by, nothing seemed too alarming.
So they brushed it off, as usual.
And you, you didn’t pay mind to it in the first place; Childe wasn’t sure if you had ignored it or if you were simply oblivious, but regardless, he was happy. He had you right where he wanted you.
You see, Childe considered himself to be above many; He knew his strengths, his weaknesses, and was what he himself considered to be a ‘worthy’ individual. Someone constantly bettering themselves, pursuing a certain goal. And he knew you shared at least some of those ideals. So he really wasn’t worried when you went off on your own; choosing to hang out with Chongyun and Xinqiu, Hu Tao, or even Xiao, instead of him. Even Zhongli wasn’t a concern to him… the retired Archon seemed fond of you, yes, but more in the way a brother is fond of his younger sibling. And Childe knew that, if requested, he would come before anyone else anyway.
He didn’t factor in certain individuals from foreign nations. With the recent abolishment of Inazuma’s Sakoku Decree you had decided to travel there to visit an old friend, Thoma. Childe had oh-so-graciously offered to accompany you, having some fatui business to deal with regardless. The trip went smoothly, your happiness evident as you told Childe about the new friends you’d made that you would love for him to meet. He wasn’t expecting one of those friends to be the head of the esteemed Kamisato Clan.
For the first time Childe felt…threatened. Kamisato Ayato had clearly gained your affections in the weeks you had been there. Childe was convinced that the man in question dialed up his displays towards you in the Harbinger’s presence; leaving you flustered, trying to downplay the feelings that were evident on your face. The tension between the two men was obvious, with Ayato knowing exactly how to play the game. But so did Childe.
And he intended to win it.
Tumblr media
Zhongli
~to be added~
Tumblr media
Xiao
“Jealousy is a disease”
Xiao was pretty sure that’s how the saying went. He had heard it in passing, from Hu Tao on one of his rare trips to Liyue. He felt it sounded childish, blunt, and knowing that she had used it in a sarcastic manner enforced this. He had brushed it off as some sort of slang, something human. Zhongli had insisted that there was some truth to the statement, that jealousy can bring out the worst in people, but Xiao had simply shrugged. People. Humans. Not him.
At first he felt frustrated. He didn’t know when or how he had gotten this attached to a human. You shouldn’t have been anything special, yet you were. It was a nuisance to him; Zhongli had smiled knowingly when Xiao had vented his frustrations, telling him that it was quite normal, even for adepti. He had called it a crush, an affection. Something so innocent even kids experienced it. Xiao felt, no, feared that it was more than that. His frustration turned to anger. Anger at himself for feeling this way, anger at you for making him feel this way. Occasionally it felt like he was being consumed by it. After all, he never really learned how to deal with human emotions. He never had to.
He was snapped out of his thoughts by your laughter; if looks could kill, the traveler would be long dead by now, with the way he was talking to you. Xiao should be the one to make you laugh like this, to hold you, to fight by your side, to be your closest friend, no, your lover. He felt the anger bubbling up again, clawing at his insides, clouding his mind, Archons why couldn’t he just take you away, be selfish this once-
No.
The anger was always followed by the guilt. You weren’t his. You didn’t belong to anyone, not him, not the Traveler. It was his own fault for falling in the first place, for failing to get close to you afterwards. He could only savor the moments he had with you, whenever you dropped by Wangshu Inn for a short break, before going off on your next adventure. He could only promise to answer your calls if you were ever in danger, and part of him hoped you would. Deep down he knew this was temporary. He was stalling, trying to delay the inevitable. Because every time you looked at someone else, smiled at someone else, he felt himself lose a tiny bit of his restraint. It was only a matter of time before he’d allow his feelings to take over, let himself be selfish. And as he looked at you and the Traveler again, he realized that it might happen sooner rather than later. He had been around for a while, after all. He had done his part for Liyue, for humans. Why should he continue to suffer for others sake, getting nothing in return? He deserved something good. A reward, maybe. You’d understand, sure you would. You were human. His feelings were oh so human, as Zhongli had said.
You’re too invested in Aether’s story about some distant world to notice Xiao’s eyes darken.

Yandere Brotherhood (X men Evolution) and preteen fem reader who has Prehensile Hair and can talk to animals and is being fostered by Mystic.
Oooo, yes, more Brotherhood! I can do that, but I keep the Reader gender-neutral, or as the Reader's gender (which means for each Reader, it is whatever they are). Cool mutation idea! Let's try this out:
Your new guardian was pretty weird.
Not just because she was a mutant and a principal (and maybe evil?).
She had other kids at the Brotherhood home, and so far-
There wasn't anyone your age.
Your powers were pretty cool, with prehensile hair, in the shape of tentacles, that curled and grew long, wriggling when you were uncomfortable or curious. Your other power was even cooler, being able to talk with animals, and have them understand you.
It meant you made a lot of friends amongst the natural world...
But it also meant you earned quite the interest from the older teens.
You're looking at a little frog, who's wandered close by after the rain, and are approached by Toad, or Todd, as you try to call him.
"Yo, little teen, what's up?" he asks, squatting next to you in the grass. His tongue flicks out for a second, snatching a mosquito.
"Nothing much. Ribbit-Croak-Plip-The-Third here says he's never seen an amphibian as big as you. Yeah, I know, little guy, he pretty cool. Did ya want to say hi?" You pick the frog up, gently holding it so it can look at Todd. "See? He's kinda like you!"
"It- he... can understand you? And you understand him?" Toad asks, scratching at his hair.
"Yep! And he says he would like to be your friend!"
"That's... That's pretty cool. You're cool, little frog man," he replies, and taps his knuckle against the frog.
"He said you're cool... Okay! Ribbit-Croak-Plip says you're cool, too, and that he knows where some good worms are. If you want, he can show you," you translate.
And that's how you helped Toad and your frog friend make a new friend.
Lance and Fred learn you can lift things with your hair- tentacles- hair-tacles, when you're trying to cook dinner one night.
Two thick strands hold up the mixing bowl as three thinner ones add in herbs, milk, and creamy chicken soup. A few longer pieces are setting up the pan with rice, while the rest dice up the chicken meat. It's busy, enough so that you don't notice them come in right away.
"And that's what Toad said he heard from- Woah! Your hair's moving!" Fred exclaims, and you turn to look at him, as well as Lance, who'd he been talking with. You wave at them, as well as one your hair-tacles.
Lance's face turns pale, then a little green. "I... um. I think I might need to sit down a minute," he mumbles, plopping down into a chair by the chipped table. Fred only comes closer, looking at them and the ingredients.
"Whatcha cooking?"
"Chicken and rice casserole."
"Does it taste good?"
"Mhm..."
"... May I touch one of your... thing-a-ma-jigs?"
"Sure," you say, turning back to the bowl, now being filled with the diced chicken, the now-free strands opening up the oven as you pour the mixture into the pan. You feel a light touch on one of the tentacles, gentle and shaking. With a quick curl, it bumps the hand. "Boom, hair bump," you chirp, adding in some rice and stirring it into the mix, and once it's settled in the pan, you pop it into the oven.
"So... it's not snakes?" Lance asks weakly.
"No... It's like a little octopus," Fred says in quiet awe, bopping another one with a finger, earning a small bop back.
"Oh... So... An Ursula version of Medusa?" Lance says, then looks at the nearest tentacle. It boops him on the nose, then ruffles his hair. "Hey, leave the hair alone!" That only gets a giggle out of you as you wait for the casserole to cook.
Pietro isn't much issue, and neither is Wanda, both accepting g it without much problem, especially once you gift them a kitten, one who happily purrs the moment you plop it into their hands.
"This is Potter, they love people, they're an orphan, and they saw you, Wanda, and wanted to know if she needed a mouse catcher and loyal guardian. They also saw Pietro and said he'd like to nap on him, that he vibrated and so he must purr so much and be happy," you babble, stroking its small head with slow ministrations.
"... I will guard them with my life," Wanda says firmly, petting the kitten as it only purrs louder.
"... And I guess we could use a mouser. But it's not sleeping with me!" Pietro mutters.
(The kitten ended up sleeping with him, and would do so every night after, never being kicked out no matter how much Pietro acted mad) (He wasn't, the kitten, Potter, said it was cooed over and cuddled and given so many kisses that they couldn't help but give the purring mutant and the powerful guardian all the kisses it could give)
Mystique didn't cause as much mischief when you were part of a mission, but that didn't stop her from setting you up in odd situations.
"Why do I have to pretend to be your child?" you asked, looking up at the currently-disguised mutant.
"Because, my dear, it is imperative we catch Xavier while his guard is down," she practically purrs, then pulls you into a hug. "Now, let's try to get closer; I think I see our opening."
The two of you walked around the park, enjoying the pond and nature around you, even getting ice cream together. It was the perfect act, enough to let you two spy on the X-Men's older leader/guardian (it wasn't an act for Mystique, she just wanted to spend time with you and show you off to Charles).
It was pretty nice, overall, being with the Brotherhood.
You just had to keep away from the X-Teens, or otherwise you ended up grounded.

X Men Evolution. Yandere Lance with little sister reader who has the ability to control air.
Aaaaawwwww! Siblings! Let's see if we can't give the rock guy a sibling! (I do gender-neutral Reader). Let's give you something good:
Being in the foster care system was tough.
It made Lance a rougher, harder person, hard to break and tough to crack. His powers only made him stronger, able to cause earthquakes and control the rocks underfoot. But he did have a soft spot for one person:
You.
You were his little sibling, his good luck charm, his Blarney Stone, the one person who could make him feel better with no effort at all. Just look at you:
You were perfect.
Not to mention your powers complimented his.
Air manipulation. The ability to control the air and use its full force, creating strong gusts of wind, cool breezes in the heat, and a powerful current capable of toppling someone thrice your size over.
Wind wears down rock, rock stands through wind, erosion and sediment and all of that.
Point was, you were the (literal) winds beneath his (figurative) wings. Where he went, you came with, and wherever you went, he wasn't far to follow.
That being said-
He hated having to share you with others.
The Brotherhood was okay. Not great, but a lot better than other places. He was more or less the leader, and the others (eventually, if not immediately) followed orders. They could fun to hang out with, each with their own unique gifts and talents (usually causing chaos with them). They were pretty alright with him.
Except for right now, when they were hogging you from him.
"C'mon, Lance. They're sweet as pie! Plus they say they can make it!" Fred told him, while Pietro was talking a mile a minute with you.
"Yo, man, they're a good one. Why can't we hang out with them more? Aren't we their friends too?" Toad wheedles, sitting atop his perch on Fred's shoulder. He almost acts like a parrot, or hawk, or some bird that isn't far from its falconry friend.
"And you've bothered them enough. Reader, come on! We're taking a ride somewhere!" Lance calls, and that catches his little sibling's attention, while earning him an annoyed look from Pietro. Yeah, look, he gets it, his sibling is awesome and listens to everyone and tries to be inclusive. But they're HIS sibling, and that means HE should be able to hang out with them without the others stealing them away every five minutes.
"Okay! Where're we going, Lance-a-lot?" you ask, using the nickname you gave him. The other teens snicker, until you turn and give them a sharp look. "Stop laughing! NOW!" The air in the room goes freezing cold, blasting sharply at them, earning a small shriek from Toad and Pietro. "Hmph!"
"Good job, squirt. You're my dragon in shining scales," Lance praises gently, and the Teo of you leave to head to his Jeep. "Oh, and guys? They're my sibling."
That earns a few shocked looks as well as questions, but the two of them are out the door and soon sitting in the old Jeep, picking out a destination. "So, what's it gonna be, squirt? Where do you wanna go?" he asks, giving his sibling a soft smile.
"McDonalds!" you cheer, a wide grin on your face. "That way we can share the chicken nuggets!"
"Okay, to McDonalds!"
Man, he loved being your brother...
"Hey, Lance, hey, kid. Can we get slushies?"
"AH!"
"Oh, hi Wanda!"
Well, at least it's just Wanda...
Wait...
"How did you get in my Jeep?!"
"I slept in here."
"..."
"..."
"Can we still get McDonalds?"
He sighs.
"Yeah, we can still get McDonald's."
"Oh yeah, man, can we come too?"
"WHY ARE YOU HERE?!"
"Stops screaming Lance and drive," Pietro orders from the back.
"Yeah, Lance! They have Ty Beanie Babies in their Happy Meals!"
... Well, at least he gets to spend SOME time with his sibling... Plus his friends. At least he doesn't have to fight the X-Teens over them...

X men Evolution. Yandere Duo Lance and Kitty and future child reader who has both of their powers.
Ooooo, the Rocky Road and Kit-Kat couple! They're funny together, so their kid is likely the one who's serious (as serious as someone younger than eight can be). Let's do it:
Okay. So. This wasn't planned.
They hadn't even got to the kissing stage, let alone having a BABY.
But, here they are, staring up at them with a serious look and clutching a rock in their hand.
"Hi, Momma. Hi, Daddy. You look weird young," they say, then sit down and start messing with a handful of loose stones.
To say they're shaken is an understatement.
"Uh, kid, I hate ta break it to ya, but we're not your parents. We don't have kids," Lance says, hissing sharply when Kitty elbows him in the ribs.
"Lance! Don't be rude!" she chides, then squats down to be eye-to-eye with the child. "Like, look, kid, we can't possibly be your parents. We aren't even, like, dating."
"We aren't?" Lance pipes up helpfully.
Kitty facepalms, groaning. "Why am I the only one with a braincell?" The kid nods, still serious as ever. Well, there's one way to figure out what's going on... "So, who ARE your parents? And why do you think they're us?"
The child sighs, then holds up the rock they'd previously held in their hand. She stares at it, then back at them.
"Um... kid... that's, like, a rock."
"Yeah."
"..."
With an irritated sigh, the child throws the rock at Lance, who catches it, fumbling as he tries not to drop it. "Read what's ON the rock," the child says, then stares at them with a scrunched up face.
The two look at the rock, which has a scribbled-on message in sharpie:
Dear past me-
Yes, this is our kid. Yes, they're from me- we- and Kit-Kat. Don't punt our kid into yesterday, or I'll crush you with the Hulk-
Signed- Future Lance
P.S.
I- We- join Shield. Deal with it.
The two teens look up, then sharply down at the small tot, who is staring at them boredly. They share a quick look with each other, then bend down to talk with their apparent kid from the future.
"So... um. Hi, I guess," Kitry says, holding out her hand. The child shakes it, then their hands passes through hers. She feels herself freeze, until the child pulls their hand back, picking up a pebble.
"Oh wow... Our kid has powers..." Lance whispers, and his eyes are full of awe.
A rumble comes from beneath them, then cracks begin to form.
"Found it," the child says, then sticks their hand into the fissure, pulling out a chunk of crystal. "Here you go, it's a present." They deposit it into Lance's hands, almost sending him tumbling over.
"They're definitely ours..." Kitty groans, and goes to help her (kinda) boyfriend drag the crystal cluster inside. "What did you say your name was, kid?"
"I'm Reader... That was the one name you two could agree on without tossing the other out of the delivery room," they inform her, then crack a wry smile. "You better remember it, Momma. You too, Daddy! Uncle Hulk said if you forgot, he'd drop you off the Helicarrier!"
Both teens wince, and decide they'll make a reminder. They really don't want to deal with whatever a Hulk is, let alone be tossed around like a ragdoll by him...
