[🧡Lovesick🧡] Yandere!Dirk x Reader Imagine/Ficlet

Word Count: 1,393.

  🧡Dirk was sick.🧡

- He couldn’t tell when it had started. When his feelings of soft admiration and warmth had turned to poison in his veins. When butterflies had become shards of glass lodged deep within him. When love for you had turned into an all-consuming obsession.

- A sickening, frantic, burning desire for you.

- Dirk tried to manage it at first. He tried everything to shift his mind away from you. He threw himself into project after project, working harder than ever, busying himself with dozens of things at once in a futile and desperate attempt to finally clear his mind. To stop whatever was happening, before it was too late.

- AR handled the bulk of his human interaction during this time, assuring Jake, Jane, and Roxy that everything was fine. That he was just working on something important.

- But when you reached out to him…

- God, he couldn’t bear to let AR handle it. He didn’t want that thing to scare you away. Not when he was like this. Not when he couldn’t talk his way out of whatever AR managed to reveal to you.

- You were concerned. Of course you were. You were so sweet to worry about him like that. If only you knew the pain you were causing him right then, just by being so, so far away…

- But it was safer this way. He was sure of it. The longer he was away from you, the better chance he had of getting over this ‘sickness’.

- On the other hand, he wasn’t certain how long he could go without seeing you again. Without being able to bask in the light and warmth of your smile, or admiring the soft shine of your hair, or experiencing the intoxicating way you spoke, with that little lilt like you knew exactly what you were doing to him…

- He could hardly sleep at night. All he could think about was how cold and empty his bed was without you in it. How badly he wished he could just see you.

- That was when he had an idea.

- Dirk knew it was wrong. He knew the second he set up that first camera, already planning in his mind where he’d hide the other half a dozen around your place. It was an invasion of your privacy, a breach of your trust- it was wrong.

- Still, it was the only way he could keep himself from doing something worse. Something that you’d probably never forgive him for.

- Day and night, he’d watch the camera feed, watching you as you went around your place. He smiled and chuckled whenever you did something silly, or when you danced like nobody was watching.

- And… nobody should have been watching. Least of all Dirk. But he couldn’t help himself! He adored you! He craved you. Craved being around you. He wanted to be there with you every second of the day, dancing with you, singing with you in the kitchen, sleeping beside you at night. He wanted to share all those little moments with you.

- When you left your place- when you went outside the reach of the cameras, he felt sick to his stomach. How could he be sure you were okay if he couldn’t see you? How could he be certain that you were safe?

- It was a slippery slope, trying to keep track of you. One camera turned to a dozen. Dozens turned to drones. Anything to make sure you were safe, wherever you went.

- Even if you’d be so much safer with him.

- Progress slowed on all his projects. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d finished any of them.

- He’d even shut off AR at some point, though he couldn’t quite recall when. He didn’t want to risk it talking to you instead of the real him.

- Dirk knew this wasn’t sustainable. It wasn’t healthy for him, and it wasn’t slowing down his feelings for you. He couldn’t just stay hunched over his desk all day, watching wherever the drone followed you (much as he enjoyed admiring you.)

- He knew he’d have to take some drastic measures, sooner rather than later…

- When he finally cracked, it was sudden, and without any kind of warning to anyone besides himself.

- He didn’t want to scare you any more than he knew he already would. He was so very, very careful when he snuck in, and as he moved silently across the floor, all the way into your room.

- It wasn’t hard to snap the handcuffs over your wrists, or to quickly gag your mouth with a long cloth he’d brought with him. He didn’t want you squirming around too badly, or making a ruckus that could alert your neighbors or family after all. No, he wanted this to be quick and painless.

- Dirk knew that once he had you on the hoverboard with him, you were as good as his. There was no way you’d thrash around by then, given the risk of falling to what would certainly be your death.

- He had planned this out so very carefully. He had already replaced his sheets and pillows with the same kind that you owned, had already stocked the fridge full of all your favorites, had already bought dozens of outfits for you to wear. Everything was perfect.

- He knew it was awful. It was a monstrous and cruel thing to do, isolating you from everyone you’d ever known and loved… but he couldn’t stop himself.

- ’They didn’t deserve you.’

- And neither did he.

- For the first few days, he kept his distance. He wanted to give you time to adjust, time to understand exactly what was going on. Despite how desperately he wanted to cuddle you, to feel your warm skin against his, he restrained himself. He had done enough damage without traumatizing you any further.

- During those days, he worked at his desk. He finally felt some semblance of normality again, awful as that sounded. He could finally focus on his work, knowing that you weren’t far away. Close enough for him to tell you about whatever he was working on, something he often did, hoping it might bond the two of you even slightly.

- Even if you never forgave him, it was such a comfort just to know you were safe.

- You were together, in his room- your room. Your shared room.

- The thought made his heart skip a beat.

- He knew he didn’t deserve you. Not as a friend, and not as a partner.

- The aching, burning, festering guilt in his chest gnawed away at him when he saw you look his way. Your eyes were so full of confusion and hurt. He couldn’t bear to see you so hurt.

- Even if he didn’t touch you, he still knelt by your bedside, softly cooing apologies and promises to keep you safe. You had to believe him, he wasn’t going to hurt you. Yes, yes, he knew what he was doing was wrong, but he couldn’t just let you go. Not now.

- ‘Not ever.’

- After a few days, he gave you free reign of his room. You were free to walk around as he worked, albeit with the windows locked and a hefty robot just outside the door, ready to snatch you in an instant if you made a break for it.

- That wasn’t the only thing to change, however.

- At night, Dirk began to cling to you like a lifeline, silently terrified you’d somehow manage to escape, and all of this would’ve been for nothing.

- He loved the warmth you provided. The softness of your skin, the plushness of your body, and the way you relaxed after you eventually managed to fall asleep, having tired yourself out struggling to free yourself from the embrace long ago.

- Dirk loved to run his fingers through your hair. To gently nuzzle his head against your chest and listen to your heartbeat, finally comfortable for the first time in months.

- He even took his shades off around you! You were so important to him, he wanted to see you with perfect clarity. Every soft rise and fall of your chest was heaven, and each breath you drew was a symphony to his senses…

- He knew he didn’t deserve you, but he needed you.

- You were the only cure to his sickness.

- And he would never let you go.

[yanderes-galore]

Hello!! I'd like to request for homestuck please! Do you have any headcanons for the type of yandere Dirk Strider would be? And how he may treat or act around his darling?

(If you need a time frame at all in the comic timeline, I can suggest post-game (before the epilogues so no worry to know those or hs^2) - it might work out easier to write for!! Otherwise if you don't, disregard this paragraph hehe)

Sure! Sorry it took so long (It's been MONTHS 😥😭), I needed to shove the entirety of Homestuck in my brain and have coherent thoughts about it. I'm actually not entirely done with Act 6 yet (I wanna say halfway through-ish?) so if he's very OOC my bad.... I can make an updated version at a later date maybe? Take this as an AU of Act 6 just in case, I just wanted to explore his yandere type.

Here's what I got! Now that I think about it I want to write more for Homestuck... it's really good and I'm happy I finally experienced it. Thanks Tumblr 💜 I tried to keep this general as the first concept for a character I write typically is :)

Writers who gave me motivation and inspiration to start this work; @yandere--stuck and @bunnyjam-imagines . Your work is incredible and keep doing what you're doing ^^ 💜Your Dirk fics really helped me with this so I dedicate this to you, too. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE TAGGED LET ME KNOW, THANKS.

Possible Spoilers For Homestuck Act 6

Yandere! Dirk Strider Concept

Pairing: Romantic/Platonic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Obsession, Stalking, Manipulation, Overprotective behavior, Hidden cameras, Secret recording, Dirk struggles expressing feelings, Invasion of privacy, Brief violence mention, Swearing, Kidnapping, Dubious relationship, Isolation, Controlling behavior, Implied jealousy, Angst, I like this version of yandere Dirk where he just feels conflicted.

Dirk is a very interesting character and I've noticed there has been a pattern in the way people write him as a yandere.

Dirk seems like a yandere whose lucid in his behavior.

He has tendencies to know what he's doing is wrong, or at least this is a pattern I've seen in the way others write him.

I can agree with this as Dirk seems like he takes on the role as guardian for the other people in his group at times (Jake, Jane, Roxy).

Dirk would be very caring towards his darling despite the emotional baggage he has behind the scenes.

He most likely met you through a chat client like the rest.

Since he was young he's always had an interest in puppets, robots, and horses...

He could've met you through one of these interests or by one of his other friends introducing you.

Either way, Dirk finds himself talking to you more and more when he adds your handle.

Dirk's yandere behavior isn't overly romantic even when his feelings are that way.

He doesn't really like expressing it all that much.

Dirk's behavior comes off as just him looking out for you.

He's like a guardian who's willing to do anything for those he cares about.

Based on the fact Dirk has made robots for Jake and Jane in the past, usually for special occasions or requests, he probably would make one for you eventually.

Dirk is very skilled with robotics and wouldn't mind creating some sort of bot for you no matter the size or purpose.

Dirk does try to keep one goal constant when making you a robot gift...

It has to protect you.

He's responsible and wants nothing more than those he cares about out of harm's way.

If they reciprocate his feelings or not doesn't matter....

When he does make that robot gift he puts a lot of his time into it.

AR has to spend a lot of time responding to his friends as all of his time is spent multi-tasking on a ton of tasks.

Building your gift... talking to you... watching his dreamself...

He's kind of worn thin.

Once it's finished he sends it to you with a brief message.

It's his way of showing his care even if he seems very closed off with feelings.

This robot is the first camera he manages to sneak in your home.

Dirk even has secret folders on his PC of just footage.

Part of him feels guilty for recording you... but he tries to reassure himself this is what a robotic guardian needs.

The robot is the biggest part leading into his obsession.

It can act on its own to protect you or like a drone he can control and see through.

He feels guilty that he's using it to interact with you like he's actually there....

Dirk's feelings could swap over the more he sneaks electronics into your house and the more he cyberstalks you.

There's a certain threshold he passes when he eventually has to admit he's got feelings for you if he has them.

Clearly he doesn't just want to protect you like a friend, right?

Why else would he watch you sleep with that robot you thought of as a cute gift from him?

He can't help but search through files upon files containing pictures and video feed of you being... you.

He feels he could never admit it fully but he does like you.

One way or another....

Dirk's obsession is very... what's the word... quiet?

He seems like the yandere who would just hover in your shadow... just to keep you out of harm.

He isn't a very violent yandere and is more just like a guardian to you due to his fear of revealing his feelings, which makes him work well as a platonic or romantic yandere.

Dirk probably could use violence to protect you but doesn't always tend to.

His robot guardian he made for you is indeed armed, though.

The robot he gave you isn't as merciful and may even get bloody if it has to for you.

He doesn't mind if you feel the same for him or not... he would like you to but you don't have to....

He seems like the yandere who'd sigh and regret saying anything if you rejected his feelings... but respect the decision somewhat.

That doesn't stop his overbearing behavior.

The comic does say when he puts his heart to something he won't give up until he accomplishes it.

Friend or lover, Dirk tends to act controlling.

Be it him talking to you through your robot, in the chat client, or in person if he ever meets you... Dirk seems to act like he knows more than you.

He has a bit of an ego and can come off as obnoxious in conversation at times.

He always acts like he knows what's best for you.

He looks back on the times he has acted like this with regret later... as I said, lucid yandere.

In fact a lot of his obsession makes Dirk regret it at times.

This could be because he harbors self-hatred for himself already and his obsession over you doesn't help.

He doesn't really want to give you up, though.

Dirk would manipulate you like a puppet at times.

For some reason when others are close to you, he hates it.

They could just be close friends, or potential partners...

He just can't handle it... he feels he has to prevent it or he may just lose the chance to have you.

Sometimes the darkness of his obsession kicks in and he... gives in to acts he shouldn't.

Such as using your robot to invade your privacy...

Maybe even manipulating your friends Jane, Roxy, and even Jake away from you...

That and the countless times he's considered kidnapping you to keep you alone with him just to soothe his aching thoughts.

Dirk seems like he'd struggle a lot with his obsession.

He hates the idea of hurting you.

He knows there's a good chance his obsession will hurt you, which hurts him...

All of this just causes him hurt.

Yet the more he speaks to you about interests and learns more and more about you...

He knows he can't let you go.

There's no doubt Dirk vents the frustrations his feelings cause him to Lil Cal his puppet pal.

Who else is he supposed to tell?

It's not like these feelings, regardless of the intention, are normal?

'Yeah, I stalk my friend through a robot and manipulate their life like some sort of puppet stage. What do I do to make them reciprocate?'

It's batshit and he knows it....

Roxy will just use it as gossip later... she may even tell you with some subtle hint or something.

Jane's a very sweet woman but he just feels... uncomfortable admitting he has such dark feelings about you?

You'd think Jake would be a good fit to talk to, being bros and all, but Dirk decides he'd rather just vent his feelings to himself and keep it like that.

Until he eventually acts....

Soon Dirk is going to just wing it.

It seems like a very Strider thing to do.

Your robotic companion he gifted is going to act against you in the end.

While he once used it to make you feel like je was always there with you... soon he's going to use it to abduct you.

Somehow.

Dirk's obsession feels like a constant battle with himself.

Even more so than his fights with AR.

He begins to wonder what is truly right.

Is isolating you beside him the right thing to do?

What will his friends say?

That shouldn't matter, should it?

You can all talk together when you're safely with him... if he hasn't scared them off by then-

Yet, how would YOU feel towards what he's doing?

You'll hate him... and he can't blame you.

He'd hate him too. He probably already does.

But... what he doesn't hate is you.

Surely he can make you understand once he has you.

Dirk has always tried to be caring for you.

Even when your robot companion drags you into his home, you clinging to it with fear, Dirk greets you warmly.

Oh he feels so sick when he locks you in his home.

He feels he doesn't deserve you when you cower... no longer willing to converse with him like you used to.

You don't deserve him, he deserves only to suffer under the weight of his obsession.

He's always beating himself up about it the whole time, yet won't change any of it.

Even if you do somehow forgive him.

Even if you try to say you do care for him?

He isn't sure if he can believe you after he's kidnapped you.

Don't bother lying, he sees through it.

You can hate him... you're allowed to as any other sensible human would.

There's truly nothing he can do to salvage what he once had for you after he goes off the deep end.

He's made you all alone... now there's only him.

He knows he should let you go...

But wouldn't it be cruel to abandon you after he made your life hell?

He continues his behavior with this new form of reassurance.

He'll continue to look after you, he'll prove to you he can give you so much better.

He tries to show affection.

He gives you hugs, he tries to express his obsession in a loving way.

Perhaps even kisses, some on your cheeks or lips depending on his feelings?

Lucid yanderes tend to be self-destructive.

They know this isn't how they should feel.

Dirk knows he should do what's best for you.

His mind has been clouded in darkness, however...

Far as he knows now, HE'S what's best for you.

He promises to care for you like he's always done since you mean so much to him... ironically to help heal the pain he's caused... and is probably still causing.

Dirk still helps you when you cry and comforts you when you act out.

He emphasizes with your pain and feels sick that he knows why you feel this way.

Every touch he feels from you his heaven, while you may think he's hell.

Every apology from his lips doesn't feel truthful... they're empty.

He could always let you go...

He could always try to make things right...

Those options require giving you up.

Deep down... he knows he can't.

He feels he can finally say it,

He loves you too much to let you go.

He may be his own worst enemy but he wants to be selfish when it comes to you.

He's always at a constant war with himself, resulting in him seeming distant with affection.

You quickly become his everything... thoughts of you destroy his psyche...

Soon... he gives up... he surrenders... he begins to accept it.

He loves you...

and this is how he's going to show it.
