‘𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆’ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒.
yeah, i… i have no defence nor explanation for this. i think we all deserve this kind of content tho?? so here u go, spoon pals! these can be platonic or romantic or anything at all! to be fair though, you might want to specify whether you (the sender) are taking the role of a big spoon or a little spoon. like, i’m confident i’ve worded them a certain way to make it clear, but like, i’m only one person?? who’s to say you can’t do some of these as both a little AND a big spoon?? anyway, you know the drill, DO NOT ADD TO THIS LIST!

[ HAIR ]:      sender runs their fingers gently through the receiver’s hair while spooning them.
[ SHOULDER ]:      sender presses a tender kiss to the receiver’s shoulder while spooning.
[ SING ]:     sender begins to softly sing a song to get the receiver to relax while they’re spooning.
[ TURN ]:     sender turns in the receiver’s arms while they’re spooning so that they’re facing each other.
[ FOREHEAD ]:     sender presses a gentle kiss to the receiver’s forehead while facing each other during a spooning session.
[ CARESS ]:     sender gently runs their hand up and down the receiver’s arm/back while spooning together.
[ TEARS ]:     sender notices the receiver either about to or in the process of crying, and pulls them into a spooning position to console them.
[ BREAK ]:      sender begins to cry after the receiver begins to spoon with them, after having an emotionally challenging day.
[ COMFORT ]:     sender, after a really bad day, finds the receiver and lies down behind them to spoon them for comfort.
[ REASSURE ]:     sender notices the receiver having a really bad day, and offers to spoon with them for comfort.
[ NIGHTMARE ]:     sender, after a really bad nightmare, finds the receiver and and spoons with them in an effort to calm themselves down.

[ CHECK ]:     sender lies next to the receiver (who is recovering from injuries or illness) and spoons them while staying awake to make sure their health doesn’t deteriorate overnight.
[ TRACE ]:     sender slowly traces the receiver’s hands/shoulder/arm/back/etc. while spooning together.

“𝙏𝙊 𝘽𝙀 𝙈𝙄𝙎𝙎𝙀𝘿” 𝙋𝙍𝙊𝙈𝙋𝙏𝙎.
basically i was rewatching a load of shows while i was sick for the last two weeks, and it just dawned on me how beautiful a notion it is to miss someone, or miss something? so before i go headfirst into the emotional motivation behind these prompts, i’ll post them, and hope you’re all having a fantastic week, and that you enjoy these prompts as much as i enjoyed writing them!
“ i miss you. “
“ i’ve missed you. “
“ i’ll miss you. “
“ you’re coming back, right? “
“ when will i see you again? “
“ please don’t go… “
“ i could go with you! “
“ when will you be back? “
“ you know you can’t come with me… “
“ i didn’t wanna leave without saying goodbye. “
“ i hate goodbyes… “
“ i’ll always find my way back to you. “
“ hey… no tears, alright? this isn’t goodbye. “
“ don’t leave me. “
“ i’ll see you soon, okay? i promise. “
“ this isn’t goodbye, you know. “
“ this isn’t goodbye. this is… until we meet again. “
“ i have to go now… “
“ were you really about to leave without saying goodbye? “
“ i don’t think i’ve ever missed anyone, or anything, the way that i miss you right now. “
“ hey, where’d you go? i was starting to miss you! “
“ why? do you miss me? “
“ stay with me… “
“ you know that i can’t stay here… “
“ what will i do without you? “
“ look outside your window… you see the sky? good. so do i. because we’re looking at the exact same sky right now, okay? so no matter where we are, or how far apart we are… we’ll always be underneath the same sky. so we’re not that far apart at all. “
“ i’m gonna miss you, you know. “
“ i didn’t expect myself to miss you as much as i do/did. “
“ i wish you were here. or i was there. just… i wish we were back together again. “
“ what’s it like over there? “
“ i couldn’t leave without seeing you again. “
“ if… if this is the last time i’ll ever see you, i need you to know… i have loved, and will never stop loving, you. you hear me? i love you. beyond whatever happens next. i love you. “
“ no matter where you are, where you go, where they take you… i will always find my way back to you. i promise. “
“ stop! stop lying! you left, and you’ve taken a part of me with you, so i want to know! i want… i deserve an answer. i deserve the truth! where are you? and why did you have to go there? “
“ i’ll hold you in my heart, until i can hold you in my arms. “
“ in case you ever foolishly forget; i am never not thinking of you. “
“ my heart never knew loneliness until you went away. i am missing you. “
and a few ACTION PROMPTS !
[ HUG ]:     sender, upon reuniting with the receiver after being apart for a lengthy duration of time, rushes over to them and pulls them into a tight, desperate, emotional embrace.
[ KISS ]:     sender, having just reunited with the receiver after being apart for a lengthy duration of time, catches them and pulls them in for a passionate, long-awaited kiss that tells all the things they’ve been bottling up in their absence.
[ FOREHEAD ]:     before parting ways, sender rests their forehead against the receiver’s, a possible final touch as they go their separate ways.
[ BURY ]:     before parting ways, sender pulls the receiver in for what they privately believe to be their final hug, giving them an embrace filled with heartache, desperation, and unspoken apologies.
[ GRAVE ]:     after going their separate ways, the receiver learns that the sender has died. upon travelling to their graveside, how do they respond to this tragedy?
[ COLLECT ]:      sender arrives at the airport/docks/other location to collect the receiver after being apart for a considerable length of time.
[ INTERVENE ]:     sender surprises the departing receiver by intervening before they leave, in the hopes of changing their mind.
[ REUNITE ]:     sender and receiver reunite after being apart for a long length of time.

@moonwoken​ sent “neck kiss”
the morning is quiet and yellowness of it ripe as olivier pours hot water into the french press and moves to wash out the meager dishes of the past nights in effort to not seem as shabby before francis comes out of bed. the record of debussy spins in the corner and masks the sound of soft footfalls.          olivier knows defeat in the warmest way as hands          push into his cardigan pockets and warmth from          behind wraps around him. the press of lips to bare skin          draw out a pleased hum from his chest, chin tipping          away to accommodate the tender action and teeth biting          lip in a half smile.
Tumblr media
“ lapinou- “      the drawn out vowel of protest from olivier is cut off by himself as he turns to capture francis’s lips with his own, hands still trapped in sudsy water. it is sweet, tinged bitter with oily guilt inside. it has been two days since he promised the truth. two days of being honest with francis - olivier has issues. many issues, many cracks and flaws exposed fully. but their roots still lie buried underground and francis promised patience as their love is finally given a chance.    the kiss breaks, lingers. tenderness thrives, and the guilt worms further up.

dismay flickers across olivier’s face. he’d been caught staring. “ oh, s----sorry, n--n-no thank you. “
he flounders, words choking for a moment. he considers getting up and finding a new spot in the park but his curiosity burns:
   “d--does he....i--------i-i-i mean,      do they, um,  help? actually?”
he’s pink about it, but the question is asked.

“his name’s ace.” bruce gestures towards the dog curled up at his feet that the other had been so intently staring at. the vest had his name and DO NOT PET on the side.  “and yes. you can pet him.” it was an unspoken question, but he knew it was on their mind.

{ @binaryfrission helps with our fresh start }
olivier has been gone for longer than he had hoped.
which is to say, olivier had gone to this book-sellers convention for the exact amount of time he had intended to go (a week) and was back after the three additional days of vacation he had been forced promised to do by his rabbi, and he was finally home again.
a homebody at heart, or perhaps a hermit crab, he was immensely relieved to step back into his own shop with his own books and his own things just the way he expected them to be. he hadn’t expected his cat-sitter to still be there when he arrived - yet seeing him brought an extra rush of warmth to olivier’s face.
“y----y-you didn’t h------have to wait up for                                  for                   for m----me.”
