“A lot better, now.”
Just imagine being so stressed after a long day, whether it was work, maybe pressure from expectations, or you’re just completely exhausted. There doesn’t even have to be a reason, you’re just tired and drained.
You barely make it one stiff, tired step into your apartment before he comes around the corner to greet you with a warm kiss and hug. It’s routine for you at this point. Every day you receive the tightest, secure, warm embrace from your favorite person. Arms snugly encircled around your waist, hands giving soothing rubs up and down your back.
Then after remaining in that moment, for what feels like the best couple seconds of your life, soft, pliant lips place a gentle peck on your forehead.
Those same arms wrap back around you once more, just for good measure, and cradle you. You’re completely surrounded by the calming scent, body, and essence of him.
This is the best part of your day, the thing that wakes you up in the morning and lets you lay down peacefully that night. You could stay like this forever, you think.
You’re gently eased out of the hug, hands running up and down the sides of your arms. There’s a deep inhale before he softly inquires,
“How was today?”
“A lot better, now.”

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one
his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.
ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication
ok yknow what Edit: i shouldve made it even more explicit at the end of this post, i hadnt thought i would need to since i started the post with this, but i think a few too many people are missing my point so i just wanna clarify. i shouldnt have said 'really clashed' and left it at that because yeah they did, but it wasnt just their opposite methods of communication, it is also very much that toshiro was experiencing microaggressions via laios. it may have been unintentional on laios's part, but it still happened and wore him down, made it harder for him to communicate on top of both the more subtle social cues that he was raised with and his own communication difficulties. i also want to say that the fandom reaction to toshiro and the complete ignorance of this point is also racist tbh or at the very least ignorant. i understand that the anime did not cover this panel, and neither did the manga, as this was an omake, but im gonna be real with you guys. there are enough context clues within the story to clue you into this. if you didnt pick up on it thats ok, but i think this is a good lesson in picking up subtext in the stories that youre watching and/or reading. kui shouldnt have to explicitly say 'by the way laios was racist to toshiro' for this point to be understood, and at the very least, when the author portrays a character in a sympathetic light (as kui clearly does) it should make you question Why they are doing so and what makes them sympathetic, rather than youre immediate and only reaction to be 'well i hated what this guy did/said so i hate them and they suck'. idk exactly how to finish this, just. idk. question your biases and gut reactions to things you see in media and stories, and think about whether or not theres subtext that youre missing.

"you gotta let me go, lovebug." kiyoomi rumbles, attempting to gently wiggle out of your baby's grasp. the lovebug in question only gurgles, happy to have her father's attention on her. it quirks a smile on kiyoomi's face. his amusement is short-lived, however, when the grip on his finger seemingly tightens in response and tightens even more when he wiggles just a tad harder.
his rising panic amuses you to no end.
at the sound of your quiet giggles, kiyoomi looks up from the baby cradled in your arms and looks you in the eye.
"a little help would be nice, you know?" he frowns. "our food's gonna be here any minute."
"i would love to but there's nothing i can really do when she's clinging like that, kiyo." you send him the most sympathetic smile you could muster with the laughter still bubbling up your throat. "you know how she gets."
and kiyoomi does—he really does. your daughter got it from you, after all.

He considers himself well collected - calm, even in the most perilous of dangers.
He could not, however, predict you guiding his head to your lap and running your hands through his hair. Every little praise beneath your breath, commenting on just how fluffy and soft his hair was, made him weak.
He was..not sure how to feel about it. Elated? Excited?
Perhaps this was simply a custom of yours? Which only made it all the more complicated. Was he meant to react in some way? You did not instruct him, beyond telling him to lay his head upon your lap and asking for permission to brush his hair.
"You're so pretty, Zhongli."
Ah. He felt his body tense - in surprise, he assumed. He..could not deny that it felt nice to be complimented like that, even if it did surprise him. And if it pleased you, then surely there would be no harm in allowing it? It took some amount of effort, but he relaxed his muscles, slumping against your lap, "Zhongli?"
He blinks. Once. Twice. Before hesitantly lifting his head, "Are you okay? You didn't pass out there, right?" His voice failed him them, throat suddenly dry. The concern on your face was..new. He did not have time to process why it felt nice to be worried over, before his cheeks are smushed between your hands.
"You're not sick, are you?"
"..No, Divine One."
He coughs into his hand, offering a small smile in hopes of easing your worry, but it only seems to make it worse. You scrutinize him, and suddenly he feels very small, despite being nearly double your height when he is not laying at your feet.
"I assure you, Divine One, I'm fine-"
"You better not be lying to me, Zhongli, or I'll.."
You puff out your cheeks, almost pouting as you lean down and burst out in sudden laughter. It, admittedly, makes him jump, but the sound of your genuine laughter..makes him unbearably soft.
"Hm..I'll tell Hu Tao about that time you got your horns stuck in the tree when you tried to climb it to get me some fruit."
He coughs, desperately hoping his embarrassment doesn't show on his face, "I assure you, Most Divine, that I would not lie to you. Ah..but, if you would, please do not tell the Director about that incident."
"Only if you let me pet your tail. Pretty please?"
He really was weak for you if your exaggerated puppy dog eyes made him weak in the knees, relenting and slinking the tail over your lap - it was worth it, at least, to see your eyes light up as you combed through the fur, brushing your fingers delicately across the scales.
He desperately hoped you would ignore the low rumbling purr in favor of focusing on his tail. He did not need further ammunition for the Director.

jake sully and physical touch
pairing: jake sully x fem!reader
warnings: maybe a bit of steam toward the end
i firmly believe that jake shows his love and affection through touch. like he’s not good with expressing himself emotionally so he makes sure to show it through touching you any chance he gets.
younger jake is lot more goofy and talkative but he’s still very touchy with you. even when you aren’t as affectionate at first somehow you slowly get used to it until you find yourself yearning for his hands on you.
jake comes up behind you as you are sharpening your spear, wrapping his arms tightly around your waist.
“what is it now?” you try grumbling but couldn’t fight the growing smile on your lips
he buried his face in the crook of your neck, “i just missed you is all.”
“we saw each other this morning, jake.”
“and i still missed you.”
despite you whatever you say, you don’t want him to let you go. and he usually never does unless he absolutely has to go.
i feel like when he’s super protective, it shows with how he touches you too.
like when the rda is threatening to attack the forest, jake is searching for you through the chaos and destruction. and he finds you, leading the children and women away from the damage. when you all get to safety, jake is checking for any injuries on your body even when it’s clear there is none.
“are you okay? are you hurt at all?”
“jake, jake, calm down!” you place your hand on his chest to find his heart rapidly beating underneath. “if anything you have more cuts than i do!”
he knows you can handle yourself and he can always count on that. but still, sometimes it doesn’t hurt to check ya know?
but when you initiate touch, he’s all putty in your hands. you know you have him wrapped around your finger right?
when you hold his face in your hands, he instantly melts and keeps your hands there. when you kiss him you can feel the smile on his lips and the small groans. when you tug on his hair, he wants to ravage you right then and there.
jake sully loves physical touch y’all

chara : alhaitham
fandom : genshin impact
alhaitham, light of your life, absolutely normal scribe, feeble scholar, very average person, is not the nicest man you know, nor is he the rudest. he is also the strangest yet simultaneously ordinary person you know, and you are not sure how you feel about that.
so is it weird that he's at your doorstep, bouquet in hand? yes. a little bit.
a lot, actually.
you stare blankly at him, meet his deadpan expression head on. you are not sure what to say. are you flattered? yes, absolutely. but you are also more stunned than anything.
"alhaitham," you finally speak up, eyebrow raised at his silence as he offers the flowers without a single greeting or explanation, "you, uh--" you want to say he's not very good at this, because in your defense, he literally has not said anything to you. you choose otherwise, however, opt for a gentle smile that his stoic expression seemingly softens at. "hello to you, too."
"good morning." his gaze shifts between you and the flowers. "i don't like having my hands full."
"figuratively, i thought."
he shrugs, gestures you to take the bouquet.
"and physically."
there's a slight curve of the lips when he hears your laughter, a wave of relief washing over him when you accept the gift. he clears his throat loudly, thinks to excuse himself from your presence, but you are quick to invite him inside, offer safe harbor from pointless interactions and meaningless conversations.
no, alhaitham is not very good at this whole courting ordeal, you think, swatting his arm lightly with the bouquet, but you both love it all the more.
