There’s something just so inherently romantic about being a self proclaimed unemotional outsider, a metallic and ‘cold’ being clawing to belong, while also having such a close and unbreakable bond with your blind best friend who would quite literally do anything for you
Like what do you mean he’s the most human part of you??? What do you mean that he would literally tear up the galaxy looking for just a trace of you even when everybody else thinks you’re dead???? Tf???

Since your asks are open, could I request a scenario of Gin teasing a subordinate who has a crush on him? Bonus points if they're trying to hide it.
I don't think Gin has it in him to do anything other than tease people.
Gin Ichimaru x Reader - Gin teasing you:
You don't know how he's so sensitive to your gaze. But he is. He unravels the intention behind your furtive glances and wistful sighs as if he's been watching you right back.
The teasing would be less mortifying if you at least knew what gave you away. When did you look to long or too close or too fondly?
He doesn't tell.
Instead, he toys.
Schooling your external reactions has been a trial. You're not especially skilled at it. Somehow, Gin always knows how to press just so, until you're cracking and spilling.
A bony finger taps under your chin just as you're about to bite into a steamed bun. The fluffy exterior makes you want to clamp down and tear it in satisfying halves--to see the steam and red bean paste reveal themselves.
His touch makes you tear the bun in shocked reflex, entirely uneven. Bean paste slops onto the packed dirt at your feet with a 'plop'.
"How'd ya know I needed lunch? Watchin' me that close?"
You try to hide your beating heart and flickering reiatsu by funneling a visible beam of disappointment at the lost dollop of bean paste.
"Good afternoon, Captain" you say, looking anywhere but his sharp face. "I had no idea you hadn't eaten yet."
A lie. You knew he never ate lunch before afternoon meetings. He always waited until his hunger affected his mood and put everyone on edge. Well, more on edge than usual around him.
"But ya tore it in perfect halves the moment ya saw me," Gin says, crouching so his face blocks the fallen comrade bean paste.
You back away, rattled by the position, and shove the larger half of steamed bun into one of his waiting hands.
"Here, then," you mumble. "Since you haven't eaten."
He takes the smaller half as well, taking a bite before switching to the larger and biting from that as well.
Before you can react and then try to conceal your reaction and then fail at concealing your reaction so you panic and try to act like you were doing something sensible like leave, Gin hands back the smaller portion.
"Ya wanna steal some of mine," he says around a mouthful of bun. "I won't stop ya."
The lie is presented boldly, as always.
You stuff your own mouth before you can do something undignified like squeak or shriek or whisper his name with entirely too much meaning behind it. And you definitely don't reach for the larger half.
"Thank you for sharing this meal, Captain." Your meal. But you can’t manage any anger. Just a prickling fluster spanning your stomach and lower back.
He snatches the smaller half again and takes another bite, his thin lips meeting over the dull orange bun. Autumn squash, you’re beloved.
You take it back when he offers it back with a wave, but hesitate to eat the rest of it, not trusting yourself to open your mouth still.
He taps his lips when he finishes chewing, "thanks for the indirect kiss too. Very tasty."
"C-captain! That's too much," you say in between indignant stuttering, "You and me? K-kiss?"
"Aww, don't get greedy now. Let's do that next time, yeah?"
An overwhelming air of relief and disappointment permeated as he turned and left you to unravel alone.
You squat and joined your fallen bean paste on the ground. It was horrible. But your smile grew fast as you finished the bun, hoping Gin would come tease you again soon.

Notch brought something for Arma. He carefully walks over to the little knight and hands him a Teddiursa plush. Notch had picked it out while he was at the market with Protag.
(Don't worry, he got something for Ceru, too. He picked out a cupcake for her!)
Arma looked up from his drawing upon hearing someone walk in. He gave a greeting chirp upon seeing it was Notch and tilted his head out of curiosity, seeing that the taller knight seemed to be holding something.
"Arma?... Arma-! Armarouge!"
The young knight beamed full of joy, hugging the Teddiursa plush gifted to him. So happy was he that he basically threw his arms around Notch, giving him the warmest hug he could literally muster. There was no mistaking it, he loved the gift from Notch and was going to take particular care of it.
It was equally clear little Ceru loved her cupcake too! She was trying to take care of it. Yes she was still rough with the plush just like she is with all of her toys, but she was trying to be a bit more gentle at least.
