rabbit heart
pairing: valtteri bottas/zhou guanyu
rating: t
words: 9,715
summary: valtteri makes guanyu a cup of coffee and guanyu makes valtteri tea. or: the art of ritual and taking your time. or: drinks as a metaphor for love.
Valtteri thinks before he answers. “Yes,” he starts, turning his cup in his fingers to give his hands something to do, “of course, it’s more subtle than coffee. But the taste is still good and it’s…” he struggles for words for a moment. “It’s soothing, I think. Comforting. The tea and the—” he gestures to the tray “—the ritual of it.”
Guanyu hums. “Yes, it’s peaceful, isn’t it? I need to do it more often.”
Valtteri reaches out to rub the ear of the stone rabbit. “Well, now you can.” Guanyu smiles. The kettle clicks.
this is a secret santa gift for sweet @earthdoves and was beta'd by the effervescent @starmotions 💖

Would love to see any little/cg hcs for Zhou or Valtteri. Doesn’t matter who is the little and who is the cg
Hi! I don't really watch them a lot, so forgive me for any mistakes! I couldn't decide so I just did both!!
Little Zhou + CG Valtteri
- Zhou regresses to 5-8
- Zhou is rather calm, not affected by any of the other littles shenanigans
- Valtteri has a list the size of Finland for Petnames/Nicknames
- Valtteri orders/buys Zhou's childhood snacks
- Zhou adores baths, so Valtteri buys a lot of bath products/toys for Zhou
- Zhou loves hugs from Valtteri - says they make him feel fuzzy
Little Valtteri + CG Zhou
- Valtteri regresses to about 2-5
- He's slightly more chaotic, but still well behaved
- Zhou tries to cook Valtteri Finnish meals, sometimes fails, but usually succeeds
- Adores nature, multiple times he would have gotten lost if Zhou wasnt watching/following him
- Valtteri often asks Zhou to cuddle, and Zhou would never deny him that
