Hey, I'm kind of new to this, so sorry if this comes off awkward, but I was wondering if I could put in a request for Radahn?
I'm a simp for enemies-to-lovers or friends-to-lovers trope and also unlikely romances, so I was wondering if you could do something along the lines of Radahn and a shy/pacifist reader? Mostly fluff with a bit of spice.
If not, that's totally fine of course. Feel free to ignore this if it isn't your style. Take care.
It’s ok! Don’t feel awkward or embarrassed to ask questions or make requests :3
I haven’t given much thought to Radahn, and the size difference alone causes some difficulties…
But I took a wack at it! A collection of a few fluffy tidbits with a shy female tarnished and Radahn. I know this isn’t much, but I hope you enjoy them all the same…
Little Bird
Radahn/female tarnished
Warnings: strong language, sexual themes, scarlet rot
Summary: a little collection of some interactions throughout a blossoming relationship
Tumblr media
Starscourge Radahn was a giant beast of a man, largest of the demigods and a fierce general upon the field. He would shake the resolve of even the most formidable warriors.
So it was to his great surprise when he saw a small tarnished dart around his garrison. She was a delicate thing with a mess of brown curls.
He’d seen her in passing, but never it long and definitely never caught her uttering a word.
Now she seemed to actively try to avoid detection while at the same time getting quite close. She tentatively snuck out with an outstretched hand, Radahn’s noble steed investigating. The horse, Lenard, snorted happily, the tarnished smiling.
Radahn’s head tilted a bit, golden gaze catching the interaction. The little tarnished felt a bolt of fear, scurrying the hide behind some large crates.
Lenard whinnied after her, tail swishing.
The little display made Radahn throw his head back in laughter. It was deep and clear, echoing over the sands.
The tarnished blinked, realizing the demigod wasn’t angry. She poked her head out, cautiously.
“A shy one, for a tarnished.” His laughter petered out into a chuckle, large hand drifting down to gently stroke the horse. Lenard leaned up into the contact. “What was thou doing to dear Lenard that sent thee running off so?” He asked, no ill to his tone.
The tarnished bit her lip, looking down. She slowly emerged from hiding, keeping her head low. The demigod dwarfed her in every sense of the word, casting a shadow that would make a dragon blush. She tiptoed forward still, showing her hands.
Lenard whinnied excitedly, Radahn has to shift very forward to see what the tarnished held. She shivered as he got closer, using every nerve not to scurry away again.
There in her small palms were raisins. Lenard was very excited, nosing into her hands soon after.
Radahn straightened, chuckling again. The sound made the tarnished blush, a little smile tugging at her lips.
“Spoiling my steed?” He grinned.
She gave a little nod, petting the horse now that her hands were free.
His smile widened at that.

They interacted some, from time to time, the tarnished gathering enough courage to speak. She was a shy little thing, Radahn enjoying the contrast to the usual folk he surrounded himself with.
He found himself enjoying the moments of quiet with her, even more so the deeper the rot inched into his body. He’d never been one to focus on death, giving little thought to the more mundane fractals of life. The rot send a sudden appreciation for the little things.
He lay on his back along the red sands, gazing up into the blanket of stars. Caelid was a wasteland, yet the view of the nights sky was breathtaking. Radahn was silent for a long while, truly feeling small under the cosmos.
“Did you truly do it?” Came a small voice, stirring him from his ruminating.
“Hm?” He shifted a bit, glancing down at the tiny little tarnished next to him.
“Did you truly?“ she asked, rolling onto her side, “Halt the stars?”
“Aye..” he chuckled, laying back to look into the sky again. His eyes twinkled, “…Even now.”
He heard a sound of awe leave the tarnished, smiling widening with pride.
~
His hand was outstretched, unmoving, in an offering. Radahn was crouched down on his knees, almost unmoving.
The tarnished bit her lip, worrying her hands in her skirts. Her gaze shifted up to his, heart skipping a beat.
Was he nervous?
She moved closer, reaching out to touch his fingers. His hand was almost the size of her whole body. The tarnished eased more into the contact, leaning into his palm.
A smile bloomed over his face. The tarnished could feel his heart beat through him, deepening the contact.
Slowly, ever so slowly, he moved his hand to cup her safely. Lifting her up, he gently brought her closer to his face. The tarnished clung to a finger for balance, falling on her butt into his palm.
Once he stopped, worriedly leaning in to make sure she was alright. He cradled her like a little bug, the situation making her giggle.
The sound warmed his heart, joining in on the laughter.
~
The Starscourge began to call the tarnished ‘Wren’, for her small size and flighty demeanor. It made the tarnished blush when he would say it. The name also gave her an idea…
“Radahn!” The tarnished exclaimed, running over the hill and waving excitedly.
The large man turned a bit, face instantly lighting up when seeing her, “My little Wren!” He unfolded his arms as he spoke, “It has been too long.”
“I know…” her face fell a bit, coming closer, “Iv been traveling. I have something to show you!”
“Ah?” He began to lean closer but paused when she raised a hand to halt him. Confusion filtered over his face.
Pulling her seal from her belt, the tarnished cast an incantation. Shifting light of golds and blues burst from her back, forming great wings. She flapped them a bit in practice before jumping into the air. Still very new to flying she almost smacked right into Radahn’s face, the demigod scrambling to catch her like a fledgling bird.
Wren fell into his palms, a mess of spectral feathers and curls. She righted herself a bit, beaming up at him.
Radahn smiled wildly, impressed. “Thou is truly a wee bird!” He chuckled, bringing her closer.
“You won’t have to reach down for me anymore!” She smiled, carefully standing in his large hands.
“Aye.” He nodded, smile softening as she kissed the tip of his nose.
“I missed you…” she murmured.
“I missed thee too.” He nodded, darkened veins starting to snake over his face, a cruel reminder of the rot that festered below the surface.

A very interesting commission: Radahn riding the Great Serpent on the Mountaintops of the Giants. I like to think that Torrent took one look at the duo and said, "you're on your own, buddy."
