Hi, I am DYING to see more Egon Spengler x reader and I love your writing. There isn’t nearly enough content for him even though he’s amazing 💜💜💜

My Guy

Pairing: Egon Spengler x gn!Reader

Contains: fluff

Masterlist Description: Your friend sets you up on a blind date. Before you can wonder if you were stood up or not, a certain doctor with a proclivity for the paranormal asks to buy your drink for you.

Sad eyes, that’s what Egon first noticed about you at the bar. Not the way you dressed, how you had worn your hair, or any other modifications you made to your appearance, just your eyes. They were downcast into the drink you had ordered for yourself, unsure and anxious only to fill with hope each time the door swung open, only to be disappointed again. Anyone could tell you were nervous about something with the way you kept biting your lips and each twitch of your fingers against your glass.

“Hello, hello? Earth to Egon?” Peter’s loud voice brought the taller man back to the conversation. Peter had dragged the gang out to a nearby bar hoping to drink and flirt just enough to wake up with only a slight headache in the morning. Winston was all too happy to tag along, while Ray only needed a little persuasion, Egon had to be all but dragged out of the firehouse, ever the homebody.

“My god, Stantz, grab a knife. Egon, if you don’t answer me we’re going to give you a lobotomy in 3…2….”

“Cut it out, Venkmen.” Egon’s tone was flat, his gaze finally pulled away from your figure. “Didn’t we come here so you could flirt around or whatnot? Was I too out of it to notice every woman here reject you or what?” He snapped, drawing a chortle out of his friends.

“He’s just the best, isn’t he the best? The sweetest guy, you could always count on a fella like him and oh! We’ve lost his attention again.” Egon had drifted back to your sulking figure, missing the way Peter’s eyes slowly followed Egon’s, Ray and Winston’s soon to follow.

“Somebody’s got a stalker” Peter had positioned his mouth directly besides Egon’s eardrum, the new volume making him jump. “C’mon, you’ve been staring at that poor schmuck for twenty minutes, at least.”

“Poor schmuck?” Egon came to push up his glasses, flickering between you and Peter.

“That poor soul has been alone at the bar this whole time.” Peter shrugged, taking another sip of his beer.

“Probably waiting on a date, but it’s been too long now. I suspect they’ve been stood up.” Winston chimed in, Ray shaking his head in disappointment, his heavy brow furrowed in concern.

“Egon, scoot out of the booth, it’s time to make my move.” Peter snickered, raking a hand through his unruly hair to flatten it, straightening his tie.

“Uh…” Egon stuttered, catching another glimpse of your sad eyes. You had pulled a compact out of your bag, double-checking your appearance. You had nothing to worry about, you were perfect. Even the thought of Peter walking up to you and throwing some line he had already used on half New York’s population made Egon cringe, quickly shutting the idea down. “No.”

“No?” Oh. He didn’t think this plan all the way through. “Oh, I see. Well, Doctor Love, why don’t you take a turn romancing?” The more Peter thought about it, the wider his grin grew. “Yeah, yeah, this is great. Put yourself out there, huh? And see if they have any supermodel friends.”

“Oh, I’m not going over there.” Egon defended, staring down at his waterglass. He didn’t care much for the taste of alcohol, usually opting to be DD. Various cries fell from Venkmen, Stantz, and Zeddemore’s lips, causing Egon to grimace.

“You know what it’s like for us- Well, not Zeddmore.” Winston always seemed to have more luck with the dating pool. “They take one look and look somewhere else.”

“C’mon Speng, they’re probably just on the verge of desperate to go home with the next person who asks, so if you’re not going to man up then-”

“You know I don’t like what you’re insinuating-” Egon shot back, only for Ray to diffuse the tension.

“Perhaps you could buy them their next drink? If they refuse, we’ll leave. But if they take it, even to be polite, try striking up a conversation with them. You never know, Spengie.” Ray always seemed to know exactly what to say.

“You got this. You’re the man, Egon, you’re the man with the plan.” Peter very helpfully patted Egon’s shoulders like he was preparing for a boxing match. “Just remember, when in doubt, WWPVD- What Would Peter Venkman Do? It’s always worked for me.”

The flicker of annoyance in his dark eyes was gone as he rolled them, swatting Peter’s hands away and rising to his full height, smoothing down his sweater vest and slacks.

This is stupid. You thought glumly, feeling a familiar bitterness wrap itself around your heart. You should have never agreed to go out tonight, What was I thinking?

You know what you were thinking. You were tired of coming home to an empty apartment, tired of watching your friends talking about their significant others- and while you were happy for them, truly happy, you couldn’t help but feel bitter. Even though you tended not to base your worth on whether or not you were in a relationship, it was still an experience you were missing out on.

So when a close friend claimed she had the “perfect guy” for you, you threw caution to the wind and agreed before you could truly think about it. But now, having sat at the bar for close to a half hour past the agreed upon time, you had plenty of time to think.

What if he had taken one look at you and left?

You knew nothing else about the man other than what your friend had told you, tall, dark hair, great sense of humor. You couldn’t remember his name or what he did. Or maybe she forgot to mention it to you. You wondered what she had told him about you, and if whatever it was, was enough to persuade him to stand you up.

Or what if he was late because of an emergency, or traffic- traffic in New York could be a bitch- or what if he was at the wrong place and if you just held on a little bit longer you’d finally meet your soulmate and you’d be so glad you just waited a little bit more.

“Hello.” A deep voice pulled you out of your stupor, your eyes meeting his. Tall, rich, dark curls, a shadow of where facial hair would lie if he would let it grow. His clothes suggested a level of professionalism and care. You thought he was trying to smile but it seemed he was nervous, almost a grimace. This had to be him, right? “Can I… buy you another drink?”

“Oh!” You sat up straighter at his attention, trying to decide on an answer. He kept you waiting, you should be upset, shouldn’t you? But there was something earnest in the way he asked you if he could buy you a drink, the way he hadn’t automatically sat down to drag you into a conversation. Maybe you really were too much of a cynic, you could be forgiving- just this once.

“That would be nice Mr….?”

“Doctor,” The word slipped out of his mouth, cringing as he realized his tone was harsher than intended, opening his mouth to apologize.

“Doctor?” You prompted, your playful tone almost making him blush.

“Just call me Egon. Egon Spengler.” He offered his hand to you,

You gave him a smile, gesturing to the seat next to you. “Egon.” You tasted his name on your tongue, repeating it softly. “Alright, Doctor Egon, why don’t you join me?” A hint of a smile making itself known on the corner of his lips.

You missed the group of guys in the corner slapping each other silly, ordering another round to celebrate.

You would have to buy your friend dinner, or curse her out, you still hadn’t decided. Well, she deserved something for setting you up with someone as wonderful as Egon but why keep him a secret for so long?

He was intelligent, as he finally coughed up he had varying degrees in parapsychology and nuclear engineering. At your insistence he mentioned a few experiments he had in mind, one about positive and negative energy infused into surrounding objects.

“So, what does a guy like you do for fun?” You tease, leaning back in your seat.

“I collect spores, molds, and fungus.” He blurted, ignoring the heat that instantly blossomed on his cheeks. He ruined the whole thing didn’t he? What person in their right mind would find that attractive? It’s my hobby and I enjoy it, Egon tried to remind himself, willing his insecurities to stop.

“Really? How’d you get into that?” He’s thrown off by your question, surprised you haven’t sprinted out the door and left a you-shaped layer of dust in your wake. You take his wide eyes and smile, placing a comforting pat on his hand, tracing the prominent vein there absentmindedly. “It’s not like you collect teeth or anything.” A pause. “Please, tell me you don’t collect teeth.”

His laugh startles even him, higher than his deep timbre and broken from underuse. He was still quite nervous, it was… cute. So was the way he could smile without moving his lips, just a quirk of his brow. You made you feel as if you were the most comical person on the planet.

“I promise, I don’t collect teeth or anything else of human nature. Just the spores, molds, and fungus. I have a keen interest in botany.”

“You’re full of surprises. I had no idea you’d be this interesting.” You hum to yourself.

“I’m surprised you’re so interested.” He admitted, “What about you?” You could feel your cheeks heat up as the topic of conversation was now focused on you.

“Well, um… What about me?” You offered.

With a serious gaze, Egon lifted his drinks to his lips, tilting his head towards you. “Do you collect human teeth and should I be worried?” He smiled into his glass, hoping the blush on his cheeks isn’t noticeable as you throw your head back to laugh.

“Damn, either Egon’s has serious game or Egon’s the first human this person has ever met.” Peter grumbled for show, watching the two of you laugh for what seemed like the hundredth time in less than an hour.

“Well, some people are into the “nerd” look now.” Winston shrugged, taking an opportunity to peek on you both.

“No, Egon has game, I’ve seen it.” Ray mentioned, eyes widening as Peter and Winston snapped to face him. “Just because he doesn’t need to take someone home every night doesn’t mean he can. He’s a man of science first and foremost.”

“Well, I’m a man of science too. More focused on human anatomy.” Venkman wiggled his brows raising his palm up for Winston to slap. “You wouldn’t get it, Stantz.”

“Alright, that was just clever enough to warrant a high-five.” The older man rolled his eyes, limply returning the gesture.

“Wh-” Ray stuttered, growing flustered. “I’ll have you know-”

“No time to respond, look.” Ray sighed dejectly, turning to watch you inspect your beeper, excusing yourself by pressing a kiss to Egon’s cheek to find the Bar’s telephone. Peter waved the taller man over, placing his chin on his folded hands.

“So Egon, has the alien that lives inside your cranium found a mate?”

“No, they’re intelligent and-” Egon cut himself off, truly processing his words. “No.” He hissed sharply, his palm coming up to hit the back of Peter’s head. “It’s going very well. I don’t think they know about the Ghostbusters, which is pleasant. I don’t much care for those who only pay attention after finding out we’re famous. Ray, I should commend you for your recommendation, I believe I’m-”

“Going to put a sock on the firehouse doorknob?” Winston snickered, Peter snorting into his palm.

“Going to ask them on a proper date.” Egon’s tone was flat, his mood only boosting as Ray smiled warmly.

“Hey, listen, I’m so sorry, I-” Your friend rambled as soon as you had dialed her number. “I didn’t know he was going to bail. He mentioned something came up at the office and if you’d like to reschedule, I mean, I’m surprised you’re even still there and don’t let this ruin your plan of ‘getting back out there,’ remember you’re smart, sexy-”

“Woah, woah, woah, what are you talking about?”

“Walter! Walter Peck, what else could I be talking about?”

“Who?”

“The guy you were supposed to be meeting! I can’t believe he didn’t try and get in contact with you first!” She exclaimed, continuing to ramble.

“He’s not a scientist? He doesn’t have a doctorate?” Maybe Egon was his middle name or something?

“Walter? No, he’s an inspector for the Environmental Protection Agency, what are you talking about?”

“Well, I thought…” You trailed off, turning to find Egon mingling with a group of men. His cheeks were red, waving off the men who seemed to be hyping him up. Had he been with them earlier and you didn’t notice? “I thought the guy you set me up with had shown up late. What does this Pecker guy look like?”

“Auburn hair,” Nope. “Bearded,” Nope.

“Yeah, that’s not my guy.”

“Your guy?” She squealed, “Tell me about him, tell me!”

“I don’t have time for this,” You felt extremely flustered, hoping Egon wasn’t noticing your discomfort. “I’m on the best date of my life so far and I’m on the phone talking to you!” You relaxed a bit after hearing her laughter, promising she would get all the details later.

You were supposed to be mad? If Walter had shown up, or if you left too early, you would have never met Egon. Besides, it’s not like Egon lied to you. He never pretended he was your date, you had just assumed.

You hung up the phone, nervously approaching the small group, plastering a smile as they brought Egon’s attention back to you.

“Hi.” You breathed, giving a small wave. “Who are your friends?” Brief introductions were made, Egon all but dragging you back to the bar after Peter kissed your hand, making you snicker.

“Is everything alright?” He referred to the phone call, looking concerned. Yeah, this is my guy. You decided, shaking your head.

“Funny story,” You began, Egon already smirking before you said anything. “I was here waiting for a blind date and when you approached… so I thought you were him. That phone call was from the friend that set me up.”

“Should I assume this is your way of telling me you wouldn’t be interested in a second excursion?” He sighed, his smile melting to cover his disappointment.

“You should never assume, Doctor.” Your hand comes to wrap around his, those beautiful rich eyes meeting yours. “I’m glad I didn’t waste my night pining over someone I’m too good for. I got to spend it with you.” He seemed a little more hopeful.

“Why don’t we get out of here?” You nod towards the exit, smiling as Egon nodded, pulling him close to your figure.

“Guys, is Egon cooler than me?” Peter whimpered, watching the two of you leave the bar arm in arm. A gasp fell on his lips as he watched Egon cradle your face, whispering something unknown before leaning you back into the window, lips pressing against each other hurriedly.

“Yes.” Ray and Winston chimed, clinking their beers in triumph.

Could I have an Egon/masc presenting gender neutral reader fic where the reader is working in the lab and then Egon joins them. Making out ensues & then one of the other ghostbusters barges in and it’s funny idk I’ve never requested fics before so do what u want with this :3

Hypothesis, Conclusion.

Contains: fluff, sexual inneundos.

A/N: This is a gender-neutral fic with no reference to the reader’s appearance. I myself identify as a cis woman, so I’d appreciate any feedback on this. I want to make my stories as inclusive as possible.

“Hypothesis.” Your voice broke through the silence of the lab, looking up from your microscope to meet Egon’s chestnut eyes. “If we get something to eat, and soon, then we’ll be able to continue our research because I won’t starve to death.” You complained, leaning your fist on your cheek.

“Starve to death?” Egon prompted, the faintest hint of a smile at the corners of his lips. “Well, our experiment is of much import. I suppose I better begin the research process on this ‘hypothesis’ of yours and grab the spare menus.” You didn’t miss the teasing way he rolled his eyes as he finger-quoted you.

For the past few weeks the two of you had been experimenting with possible benefits of ectoplasm, Lord knows the Ghostbusters had enough samples to work from, being slimed so often. You had tried it in food, drinks, medicine, hair care products, and so far hadn’t found any positive results. It was pretty exhausting.

“Hey!” You yelped, drawn out of your thoughts as Egon stepped past you, your palm coming to soothe the sting left on your ass from where he had smacked you. His steps quickened, the tall man soon out of sight. Some would consider it an inappropriate workplace, or if you were Peter, an invitation to something more illicit, but you had come to know that Egon was experimental- in more ways than one.

You didn’t bust the ghosts, having been the gang’s research assistant at the university, but when they were let go, you followed suit, picking back where you left off in the basement of the firehouse. Like your colleagues, you had come to appreciate the science of the paranormal, and it didn’t help that you had a crush on one of your coworkers.

Who could blame you? The man was intelligent beyond measure, too blunt to ever lie to you, caring in his own way, and beyond handsome. That, coupled with the fact he didn’t live with his parents? Egon was at the surface of the dating pool the mid-80’s could offer.

You were surprised that the attraction went both ways, only figuring out Egon’s reciprocating feelings before he and the gang went to fight Gozer.

“Just in case I don’t return I think you should know…” Egon had never been all that great with expressing feelings, instead grabbing your shoulders and smashing his lips against yours.

Romantic as hell, albeit a little too much teeth- but hey, everyone thought it was the end of the world. Just thinking about the kiss always made you heat up, your stomach doing somersaults. And what was more scandalous? Neither Venkman, Stantz, Zeddemore or Melnitz knew.

Of course, they knew you had feelings for each other and every so often they would play matchmaker, but they had no idea you had been dating for months. You were going to tell them, you swore, but it was nice to keep the relationship under wraps, just for the two of you to enjoy.

“Your research documents.” You turned around at the sounds of Egon’s heavy footsteps on the iron staircase. Your eyes caught a glimpse of the stack of menus he held before wandering to the pale skin hiding underneath the collar of his button up, your teeth softly digging into your bottom lip.

You took the menus from his grasp, letting them fall on the tabletop before wrapping your arms behind his neck, drawing the scientist in. A hand wandered to his neck, fingers dipping below the collar to feel the warm skin there, the other beginning to loosen his tie. You lingered on his Adam’s apple as he swallowed thickly, casting a glance to his lidded eyes.

“Egon?” You asked softly, fingers hooking around his tie and pulling him closer. His hands fell on the tabletop, caging in your body with his own. He didn’t dare speak, his breathing growing more labored by the second. “You’ve never had a hickey, have you?”

He swallowed once more, shaking his head briskly and letting his glasses slide down his nose. Could you hear his heartbeat through his ribcage? His blood pumping? Could you feel his breath brush against your ears?

“Oh, I think this experiment takes top priority.” You cooed, moving to nip his earlobe, trying not to smirk as he shivered. Your lips strategically moved to his now-exposed neck, teeth nibbling on his skin before sucking, drawing a low moan from the tall man.

Your hand traveled to the curls you love to tug on, pulling at the strands to make his head tilt back. The noises that fell from his lips made you hungry for more, your tongue soothing the tender skin before pulling off of him.

Another thing about Egon you found out in your relationship, once Egon warmed up he wasn’t exactly patient, as proved when his larger hands wrapped around your back, the only thing keeping you from toppling over as his lips met yours.

His lips were rough, his actions demanding as he is constantly breaking from your lips only to meet them again, and again, and again without ever leaving a second for you to catch your breath. You could feel the softest amount of stubble scratch against your cheeks as he kisses you, his hands digging into your back to practically bend you over the lab table.

You can taste the faintest hint of chocolate on his tongue, your Egon ever the sweet tooth. It’s only from the brief inhales of your nose that you can smell his cologne, a hint of sandalwood, and the scent of sanitizer he always uses when he enters the lab.

You don’t release you’re sighing into the kiss until you hear his growl, about to pull away to give him another hickey when you jump, feeling mist slap your cheeks.

You both pull away in shock, your cheeks heating in shame and horror at the sight of Venkman holding a spray bottle of the ectoplasm you both were messing with earlier.

“Peter!” “Jesus Venkman, what the hell is wrong with you!” You and Egon barked over each other to yell at the grinning fool in front of you, wiping the goop off your cheeks.

“Now, now,” Peter tuttered, rubbing his hands together. “You’re both lucky I didn’t unspool the old firehouse to get you both apart. We’ve been calling you both from upstairs for your dinner orders, but imagine my surprise when I hear noises coming from the basement?” He gasped dramatically. “So being the caring friend that I am coming rushing down in case one of my two best friends are in danger? Only to find Spengler practically eating your face? Or were you eating Spengler’s?” You had never felt so flustered in all your life, your palm coming to rub at your temple, waiting for the floor to open up and swallow you.

“Ohhhh, I see what it is.” You failed to notice Peter’s gaze on the purple bloom on Egon’s neck you had gifted him. “Egon clearly fell on a vacuum attachment and you were trying to ‘inspect the wound,’ play a little Dr. Spengler and Nurse, huh?”

“Peter, I swear to God I’ll castrate you.” You snapped, no true venom in your words.

“I bet,” He snorted. “Why don’t you worry about the stallion in your own hands first.” Your attention was drawn away from Peter as you grabbed Egon’s arm, who had lurched towards the smaller man. It was enough to make Venkman shut up, flinching and turning on his heel to race up the stairs.

“Oh my god.” You moaned, leaning your head against his collarbone. “Here’s my hypothesis- and it’s a doozy. If you don’t kill Peter in the next two seconds then he is going to tell everyone because he can’t keep his mouth shut.” You shivered as his fingers came to rest on your head.

“Without having conducted any research myself, I think it’s a fair assumption that you would be correct; however, I don’t think you’re fully aware of the benefits Peter’s gossiping could provide.” Your brow furrowed, glancing back up to your boyfriend.

“Which would be?-” You were cut off from your sentence, Egon’s teeth attaching to your neck as he began to give you a hickey of his own. “I knew you didn’t have those degrees just for show.” You teased, your fingers carding back into his thick curls.
