Touch Starved Prompts
It was strange to touch each other without one of them dying, but maybe touch was also something for the living.
Like magnets they moved together, pressing into each other's warmth.
There always needed to be a reason, an excuse for their bodies to touch.
Being touch-starved and needy was really starting to mess with their reputation as a tough guy.
It was like their skin was calling out for the other's gentle touch.
They didn't like to be touched by just anyone. But that didn't mean they didn't also crave it sometimes.
A coldness took over their body that only the warmth of another person could erase.
They wanted to be touched, to be missed, to be loved. Was that too much to ask for?
Leaning onto each other, just being close, was enough.
Their bodies fitting together like they always were intended to become one.

What if a woman who was bigger and stronger than me kissed me against a wall? Have we run the numbers on that?

Touch starved sub and touch starved dom who can't keep their hands off of each other and need to be as close to each other as possible. They love kissing each other, cuddling, humping, groping, and just anything so they can be as close as possible.

I’ve not seen any starved touched hero stories so may I request a starved touched hero and the villain finds out and helps them. It’s fine if not:)
"Tell me," the villain murmured, as the hero's breath came out quivering. "When was the last time that someone touched you?"
It wasn't what the hero had expected.
"People touch me all the time."
"Kindly."
"You're not kind."
But the villain's touch was such a gentle thing; the hero's brain refused to register it as cruelty, even as the villain's fingers were curled around their throat. They didn't squeeze though.
The hero should have pulled back already. They should have shoved the villain away. They did none of those things. They leaned limp against the wall, almost hypnotised by the back and forth sweep of the villain's thumb brushing sweetly against their pulse point.
It was pitiful for a nice threat to feel like affection. They were pitiful.
The villain's gaze was intent.
"What are you doing to me?" the hero whispered.
"I'm not doing anything." The villain's powers worked with touch, but they had never touched the hero before. The hero had always been too quick. The villain had managed that time though, advancing, shoving the hero to the wall and then - then this. The villain had touched their skin and then they'd gone perfectly still for a few seconds. The villain could expose all secrets with a press of their fingers, do all manner of things, but...
The hero swallowed, eyeing them. They genuinely didn't think the villain was doing anything.
Each second that ticked by seemed a confession, a betrayal, a plea for something.
The villain's hand slid slowly to to cup the nape of the hero's neck. "You didn't answer my question." The villain pulled the hero a step closer, dragged them flush. The villain's other hand wrapped around the hero's back.
They were being hugged.
A confused, entirely too soft sound left the hero's throat. Questioning. A little choked. It felt like a trap and it felt entirely too desperately lovely.
The villain tightened their grip, tucking the hero's head against their shoulder.
"Skin hunger," the villain said, softly. "Touch starvation. You are a famine, love, I can feel it."
"I-" The hero didn't know how to finish the sentence. The villain was so warm against them, a solid and reassuring presence. That couldn't be right. "What?"
"It has been entirely too long, hasn't it?"
"You're not doing anything?"
"I'm hugging you."
"Your powers-"
"-Mean I know exactly how you are feeling. How much you need this. So are you going to be good and shut up and let yourself have it?"
The hero choked out another gasp of air.
Was that was why the villain had stopped? Why they'd seemed to switch gears so abruptly when they could have finally won? The hero swallowed and shut up, even if it was a bad idea. Inch by inch, when the villain did nothing more but hold them, the hero relaxed. They melted.
"Why are you doing this?" the hero managed, pressing their face against the promise of the villain's shoulder.
"Kindness?"
"You're not kind."
The villain huffed, breath rustling the hero's hair. They pressed a kiss atop the hero's head. "Mm. Temporarily benevolent. No strings attached, pinky promise."
It was definitely suspicious, but it really did feel so unbelievably good. The hero felt like they'd settled into their bones for the first time in years. Maybe longer.
They really couldn't remember the last time someone touched them kindly, for an extended period of time. A brush of accidental touch in a crowd. A hairdresser's clinical contact. None of it was anything like what the villain gave them.
"That's better," the villain said, with a sigh. "Your nerve endings have stopped screaming at me."
"S-sorry. I-"
"It was merely an observation. You don't need to be sorry."
The hero expected the villain to get back to it, or step back. They didn't. It was probably the longest hug in the world.
Finally, the hero let themselves reach out, wrapping their arms around the villain in turn.
"Good," the villain said.
"Are we still...I shouldn't let you touch me. I'm not stupid."
"No."
"Are you going to let go of me?"
"When you actually want me to, sure."
"And you can...feel that?"
"Yes."
The hero squirmed with embarrassment. The villain tightened their grip again. The hero went still.
"Years," the hero whispered, finally. "It's been years. I can't remember the last time."
"Mm." The villain nuzzled into them. "That's not going to happen again. I don't believe in torture."
Neither of them much felt like fighting when they finally broke apart.

Touch Starved
Steve who hasn't been touched in a certain way for a while. Eddie one day leans over and sees his hair getting in his mouth, it's long, and he leans over gently to brush it back with his fingers, the backs of his fingers graze Steve's jaw and Steve lets out the most embarrassing sound.
Between a whine and a gasp.
They're not dating, but Eddie goes out of his way only to touch Steve gently again because he needs that sound, needs it with his whole body.
Steve just having the crisis of a lifetime because Eddie's fingers grazing his bicep, curling the inside of his elbow, and sliding over the dip in his neck are all killing him and he can't stop the noises that come out from his chest each time.
Robin wondering when they'll realise they're practically married and stop being gross. She's been tired of the honeymoon phase of their not relationship for two years.

Happy Zutara Month 2023!!!
Here's my drawing for Day 7: Touch Starved!
I imagine Katara just came back from a long diplomatic trip and she's so tired, but they also missed each other too much, so catching up involves mostly snuggles. Mostly. :)

being debilitatingly touch starved is so embarrassing tbh. like ooo look at me im so big and tough and strong unless someone hugs me and then i completely forget how to function. oooo look im extremely anxious about physical contact and im constantly daydreaming about being held. ooooo look even the slightest touch makes me hyperaware of my skin and i'll cry if someone ruffles my hair. oooooo look i cant sleep without hugging a pillow and being buried under a weighted blanket bc im so lonely that it manifests as physical symptoms. like what??? im literally clinically unloved that's so CRINGE ahdjk

Touch Starved Bucky:
Part 2
masterlist
Tumblr media
Once Bucky has you, he has you
He’s not letting go of you — literally
Constantly needing to be touching you
He’d always be holding your hand or gently rubbing the pads of his fingers against your arms, legs, etc
He’s a sucker for platonic touch
Hugging you from behind when you’re in the kitchen cooking
Pulling your feet into his lap on the couch
Whenever he needs grounding he pulls you literally on top of him and you lay down like that forever
No, you won’t squash him he’s literally a super soldier
He can’t get over finding different ways to show you he loves you
Forehead kisses
Cheek kisses
Playing with your fingers
Raking his fingers through your hair / or playing with the curls
Resting his head on top of yours when you’re hugging
At first only using his real arm but after you make it obvious that you love being touched with both he never stops
Being in awe of how trusting you are when touching his arm
He’s not used to having physical touch so available to him so he gets overexcited when you two begin officially dating
None of the Avengers expect to see one of you without the other close behind
After he first month of dating, Bucky begins to worry that he’s too much — that you’ll get annoyed with his constant craving for your touch
You don’t, but he doesn’t know that
He begins to pull back and you think you’ve done something to upset him
Once you pry his reasoning out of him (he could never truly lie to you), he realised he’s been an idiot
Because you crave his touch just as much as he craves yours <3
———
Requests open!!
Thanks for all the love guys I love touch starved bucky so much! Part 2 linked at top

Touch starved / comfort prompts :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[a/n: if anyone has anyone prompts ideas or wants to see me write for any specific prompts (for any specific characters?) pls don’t hesitate to pop into my asks box :D and if you end up using any of my prompts pls tage me, i would love to read them!]
that big hug in the airport when character A comes home for a holiday. B runs into their arms and squeezes them so tight that A is thinking they might break a rib.
character B feeling character A’s hand on the small of their back while going through a crowd.
character A knows exactly when character B needs cuddles. long day at work? cuddles. didn’t get enough sleep? cuddles.
Character B is away on a trip (either with friends or for work) and Character A is laying awake in their empty bed. the only thing that can get A to sleep each night is a long phone call with their favourite person. telling B about their day calms them down enough for sleep. and they do it all again the next day.
“we don’t have to talk about yet it if you don’t want to. we can just lay here like this, just relax into my arms.” one whispers in the others ear.
Character A is worried about coming off as too clingy and first. Once Character B realised how much A thrives on physical touch, they make sure they set aside enough time each day to just hold them.
If they ever go to bed while in an argument Character B still wraps an arm around Character A, knowing that they won’t sleep without it and to let them know they still love them although they’re arguing.
