cuddling with the legends pt. 3
part 1 | part 2 | part 3 | part 4
In this post: Crypto, Revenant, Loba, Rampart, Horizon
Tumblr media
Crypto
I've said this before, but mans is touch starved, like I'm talking yearning, feening for affection. He wants to cuddle with someone so bad, but won't admit it. If you tell him that you wanna cuddle, he'll be over the moon, but will try to play it cool. It's very easy to see through his act though. Loves to spoon, especially if he's the little spoon.
Revenant
You've got to be out of your mind, I mean absolutely crazy cuckoo bonkers. But if you somehow get him to cuddle with you, he will be super confused and will compensate for it by threatening you the whole time, but he might wrap an arm around you and let you do whatever though
Loba
She's got a lot of love in her heart surprisingly and very touchy in private. She likes to cuddle and loves to be the big spoon. She'll whisper sweet nothings in your ear the whole time, when she's not busy plotting how to torment Revenant next.
Rampart
I had a hard time deciding what to write for Ramya, but I've come to the conclusion that she's just really playful about it all. She'll tickly and tease you the entire time and jokingly complain about how hot it is, but if you try to get up or move away, she'll say that she's just joking and ask you to come back and cuddle forreal.
Horizon
She likes cuddling but finds it hard to find time for it, because yk, women in STEM! She'll definitely be down to cuddle if she's deep into some reading or paperwork. Just be prepared for her to jump up and disturb your peace in the name of science.

Ballistic Headcanons (some x reader?)
Fandom: Apex Legends
Character: Ballistic
Notes: kinks mentioned, you are responsible for all media you consume etc etc, religion mentioned, pet names
a/n: I went mental for the old man and here we are. another midnight HC list!! I do not control when the writing gods strike okay 😭
General HCs
him and Horizon are lowkey besties (pov you bond over the shared trauma of losing a son)
prolly tolerates her and Fuse the most out of the other legends (Fuse comes across as a pretty amiable guy despite it all tbh)
if sad wet cat was a person, he is it
speaking of cats, HE IS A CAT PERSON!! has like 50 and the MRVNs take care of them while he's away
if he gets called Monty, there is a 99% chance he will break your legs
fences, prolly owns a real sword (rich people tingz)
and speaking of rich people, hoards art like a fucking DRAGON (think Tilda from Horizon FW but less evil)
basically canon but mans is a Hellenistic pagan
given the bust of Zeus, he probably has a shrine for him somewhere on the estate
I'd imagine another patron of his is Athena (i.e. strategic warcraft and wisdom. I mean cmon he quotes literature everywhere, a very learned fella)
protects his tea stash at the Apex HQ with his LIFE (if there's no canon HQ just pretend there's one in Solace City by the firing range)
dramatic little bitch ("by the gods, I'm down ☹️")
fashion-conscious at the very least (thinking of the kill quip about burying his opponent "in a more respectable outfit than that")
Romantic HCs
is SO quiet about his private life (I mean after his wife and child leaving him why wouldn't he be?)
and with that #baggage, he's very nervous to admit to himself that he's romantically/sexually interested in someone again
if he does find himself interested in someone, he finds it difficult to put aside his public persona (a subconscious and self-protective habit)
but when he falls, he falls so damn hard !!! he's afraid of coming on too strong as well. will probably suss out the vibes of said person
ANYWAYS, if his s/o is in the Games, he feels so damn bad about hurting them it's basically a flight risk lol (and THIS is why there are anti-fraternization rules)
if legend!s/o does get hurt, this man is so good at makeup sex godDAMN
is definitely one to worship and spoil his partner
pet names like dear, darling, pet, luv, angel, god(dess), my love, beloved, my *insert pet name here*
considers himself a pretty vanilla dude with a crippling breeding kink (no matter the sex of his s/o)
cooking for those he cares about is lowkey a love language of his

New Possibilities (Brokengravity)
Rating: Teen and Up
Words:  1471
Fandoms: Apex Legends
Relationships: Horizon | Mary Somers / Ash | Ashleigh Reid
Characters: Horizon | Mary Somers, Ash | Ashleigh Reid
Summary: Mary finally gets to return home to her son. And Ashleigh.
"If only Mary hadn't been so focused on her calculations, she would've understood that it had been Leigh talking to her and not Ash. But she had and she had been tired."
Author's Note: Inspired by this beautiful art by Warmilkopi
Story below the cut or in AO3 here
Mary had done it! She had figured a way back to her boy. Leaving the other legends was harder than she imagined but this wasn't her home. Natalie and Elliot especially seemed crushed and Mary would miss both of them dearly. She'd given Ash one last glance during her going away party. She'd started to tolerate her and they'd even had a couple pleasant interactions. She (or maybe it had been Leigh now that she thinks about it) had shined light on why Ashleigh had done what she had and Mary couldn't find herself being mad at her anymore.
----------
It was late. Past any reasonable time to stay up considering she had a match the next day, but she just wanted to triple check all her calculations. She was close; she was sure of it. She got startled as a robotic voice talked behind her.
"You really should be asleep, but I guess you never were the best at keeping track of time while working," Ash (Leigh?) had said.
"I know it's late. I'm just checkin’ these calculations before lockin’ for the day," Mary had answered.
"You know I'm sorry, right? I never meant any of this to happen, but they gave me no choice," Ash said. She's pretty sure it had been Leigh now. Why would Ash ever apologize to her?
"So you've said. Doesnae mean it helps the way my heart winces every time I remember it."
If only Mary hadn't been so focused on her calculations, she would've understood that it had been Leigh talking to her and not Ash. But she had and she had been tired.
"You know it's funny. The night before all of it you told me you loved me for the first time. I knew already of course, but that was the first time you actually said it. I had been waiting for it for so long. I had told myself that once you say those words to me I'd start looking for a ring. I was planning a trip to the city to start looking for one once we'd get back home when you left me stranded in space. Nothing ever had hurt that bad before than to realize I'd been lied to by the woman I loved."
"I didn't! I- They gave me no choice! It was either I get rid of you or they will. And I knew their way would not give you any possibility to survive. They-" Ash's voice glitched loudly. Mary winced from the sound and finally turned to look at the simulacrum at the corner of her lab but she was gone. Mary thought she had finally lost it and that she'd imagined the whole thing if it wasn't for the very outdated thumb drive she found on her pillow that night. It contained very little information on Apex Predators and even less on Kuben Blisk. It also had some prototype files on something called "Time Gauntlet", which ended up helping her with her project.
Like she said. She should've realized then it was not Ash but Leigh that came to her that night.
----------
Couple days after her party as she steps out of her ship, that she crashed on to the far end of Olympus (near where Lifeline's Clinic would be built almost a century later), and comes face to face with Ashleigh Reid after so long. Ashleigh looks exactly like Mary remembers her, and she can't stop herself from running towards her. Ashleigh looks like she'd seen a ghost (and Mary couldn't blame her) and about to take a step back, as Mary crashes into her, hugging her and almost knocking both of them over. Ashleigh flinches at first before relaxing again. Mary pulls from the hug reluctantly to look at Ashleigh before cupping her face and kissing her. Both of the women melt into the kiss which seems to last forever until Mary takes a hesitant step back and punches Ashleigh to the shoulder. 
"Ow, what was that for?" Ashleigh says probably more from surprise than anything else. Mary knows it'd take more than that to actually hurt her.
"Oh, ye know well enough what it was for! I might've forgiven you but there's some explainin’ left to do."
"I guess it was too much to hope you wouldn't know or remember. Perhaps somewhere more private?"
At this point Mary takes notice for the first time of all the guards around them. She flushes red and hides her face into Ashleigh's shoulder.
"That's one way to let everyone know I'm back," She murmurs quietly.
Ashleigh lets out a low chuckle, which is rare enough on its own that it warms Mary's heart.
"Alright, you're dismissed. Clearly wasn't anything threatening, just Doctor Somers returning home. Get someone to clean this up," Ashleigh orders the guards. Then more quietly adds to Mary, "you want to go home? There's someone special waiting for his mum. Also you could use a shower."
"Ya tellin' me I smell?"
Mary raises her head to give Ashleigh a pointed look. She smiles and shakes her head and cups Mary's cheek. Her thumb swipes along her cheek and she shows her blood smudged thumb to Mary.
"Never, but you've got a little blood on your face. You didn't hit your head did you?"
She had. Her landing hadn't been the softest, but Ashleigh didn't need to know that. Mary smiles, she really did still care.
"Och, it's nothing. Where's Lillian? I'd expect her to be the first one comin' to see what was happening," Mary wonders aloud.
"She's with Newton. I've been with him when I haven't been working and Peck is with him when I can't."
"I'm afraid tae ask but-"
"It's been a year and 289 days since I returned without you. Newton's been well. Misses his mum, but that was to be expected. He's been determined that you'll be back, as have I. You came back earlier than I imagined though and I'll need your help to fix some things," Ashleigh tells her.
Almost a year and 10 months. Not ideal but better than what some of her calculations had said.
"Whatever ya need Petal."
They start their walk towards Mary's home. Mary fidgets about with her pen. NEWT peeps on her back, worried.
"You aren't going to tell anyone about what actually happened, are you?" Ashleigh wonders aloud.
"No. Ya did what you had to do to keep all of us as safe as you could." Mary answers immediately.
"You actually know. How's that possible?"
"Like I said. There's some explaining we both have to do."
"Alright. Newton is going to be so happy that you're back. As am I of course."
"Me as well. I've wanted to see him again for so long. I've never been away from him for more than a day. And now it's been almost two years for him and almost five for me."
Suddenly Mary realizes Ashleigh wasn't following her anymore. She turns around and sees her a few paces behind looking at the ground.
"I'm so sorry."
Mary goes to her and gently places a hand on her shoulder. When Ashleigh doesn't react to it she pulls her into a hug.
"I know love. You were just trying to protect all of us the best you knew how," she whispers to her hair.
"I love you," Ashleigh says with desperation in her voice.
Mary smiles. That was the second time she'd said it to her. Clearly it was easier for her now. Yes the relationship definitely will need some work, but she was back where she belongs.
"I love you too."
----------
When they finally make it home (home! Mary still couldn't believe it), Mary starts crying the second she's through the door. She can hear Lillian addressing Ashleigh but she doesn't register it at all as she sees Newton. He's facing away from her but turns around when Mary whispers his name. 
“Mummy!” He yells and runs to her. She kneels on the floor and wraps him into her arms. She's quite full-on sobbing at this point and can feel Newton crying against her chest as well. She cradles him until he starts to squirm in her arms, which is when she loosens her hold to look at him. His hair is a little longer than she remembers and he's wearing clothes she's never seen before. His little hand comes to rest on her cheek, pulling her from her thoughts.
“You’re back! I told auntie Lilian you would come back. Are you hurt?” He asks her.
“No, no sweetie. Mummy's alright,” she chuckles and kisses his head. 
“Mary, you're actively bleeding,” Ashleigh says.
Mary turns to look at her. She's smiling and there's even a couple stray tears that have managed to escape her eyes. 
“It’s alright. I'm home now.”

get to know me better :)
hi there! ^.^
My nickname is Ash and if you're new here or curious about myself, I'd be glad to share some tidbits with you! here we go!
1. What is the story behind my nickname?
I go by the nickname "Ash," not just because my titles through AO3/tumblr are similar, it's also tied into my usernames on games that I go by as well. Most of my close gaming friends call me "Ash," instead of my real name.
2. What types of relationships do I like writing/reading the most?
I mostly write stories with fem!character/male!character pairings, but I'm intrigued and thinking of writing fem!character/fem!character pairings too.
(before anyone asks - I identify as bisexual, so it would be quite easy for me to write stories from fem!POVs with male or female characters.)
3. What/Who was my first fictional crush?
Tumblr media
I had the BIGGEST crush on Poison Ivy when I was younger and she was my first ever fictional crush - initially, I believed I was lesbian for awhile too before I realized I was bisexual. (LMAO)
Tumblr media
Zuko was my first male fictional crush - his redemption arc and everything meant so much to me. (I shipped him with Katara - but I know us Zutara shippers can still imagine!)
4. What will always be a comfort show / book / movie for me?
Tumblr media
Adventure Time - this will always be my comfort show to watch and I adore every single character and liked the gender-bend episodes. ^.^
BOOK -
Throne of Glass - the series will always be comforting for me and got me through some of the darkest times in my life. I highly recommend it and it's an amazing YA series that still has smutty elements, but so much world-building. (Sarah J. Maas is the author).
Tumblr media
Howl's Moving Castle - an all-time favorite movie of mine and once I have the time, I will sketch out the rough draft design of the tattoo I've imagined for years. I adore this movie and luckily, my fiance loved it too when I showed him.
5. What fandoms am I involved in / want to be more involved with?
I am heavily involved in the Mass Effect and Dragon Age fandoms, but I'm currently wanting to delve deeper into the Skyrim fandom. I have a series/saga in mind, but I'm working on finishing my Mass Effect project first.
(I was in the ME/DA fandom, but not known back in 2015 - however, I didn't play the games until about 2016 - 2017 ish.)
6. Are there any celebrities that I've personally met? If so, list them.
For sure -
Sarah J. Maas (Author of Throne of Glass/A Court of Thorns and Roses/Crescent City)
Leigh Bardugo (Shadow and Bone / Six of Crows)
David Vincent (Robin - Fire Emblem: Awakening)
Leah Clark (Himiko Toga - MHA / Blair - Soul Eater)
Through Streamily -
Jennifer Hale (Fem!Shep - Mass Effect / Bayonetta - Bayonetta 3)
Courtenay Taylor (Jack - Mass Effect)
Mela Lee (Tiki - Fire Emblem: Awakening / Lifeline - Apex Legends)
Keythe Farley (Thane Krios - Mass Effect)
7. What is an anime(s)/show(s) you highly recommend that's underrated?
Tumblr media
Death Parade.
There are only twelve episodes so it's not long at all, but the show is incredible and I wished they released a second season - it did not perform as highly as they wanted since it's such a niche show. It's a psychological thriller with a little bit of comedy here and there...
I highly recommend it and the soundtrack is amazing.
8. What are some songs that mean a lot/describe you as a person? That scratches that itch in your brain?
I have quite a few songs that I particularly like, to the point I could play them on repeat for an entire hour. Here's the list -
Chasing Hearts - Breathe Carolina
Alkaline - Sleep Token
Follow You - Bring Me the Horizon
After Dark - Mr. Kitty
No Pressure - PLVTINUM
Tumblr media
9. What's a random pet peeve of yours and why is it?
Any time I'm out walking and/or going to work, I hate it when I press the button to walk across the intersection and another person right behind me presses it after seeing me do it.
Like - you pressing the button right after I did it isn't going to make the timer go faster? Like, where's your common sense??
10. [RANDOM FACT] -
I heavily enjoy and implement zodiac signs into my characters and playlists - however, I know that everyone is not like their zodiac sign. (ex: my own mother has said that I act like an Aries more than my own sign [Cancer]. My moon sign is in Aries though.)

hi! i hope you’re doing well! i was wondering if i could request dating headcannons for wraith, wattson, and horizon with a fem s/o? thank you so much, and i hope you’re having a lovely day! <3
With the little motivation I have, time to whip this up!
I am not doing great, but I'm good to write for a bit. Thank you for asking though, Anon!!
I did not proof-read but I’ll most likely edit the writing later!
Tumblr media
Horizon | Mary Somers
Dating Mary has its ups and downs. The downs being when she doesn't take care of her sleep schedule and always stay up for science. But you take care of her and honestly, she appreciates you for that.
The ups are the dates you have with Mary that are mostly stay at home dates. It's very comfy and homey. There's a sense of safety when you just have a candle-lit dinner in your living room, chatting away or listening to Horizon talk about her experiments.
She will be the big spoon when it comes to cuddling! As much as you want to take care of her, she wants to repay back all your love by showing how much she also loves you, tenfolds!
Plenty of kisses from her. When she’s rushing to write something down or when she has to go for the games, she’ll give quick smooches to you and be on her ‘Mary’ way. Her favorite kisses are kisses on the forehead and cheeks.
Wattson | Natalie Paquette
Being in a relationship with Natalie has plenty of adventures! Mostly because she wants to do as much with you before she plays the games.
She never really leaves your side unless she has some experiments she really wants to finish. You do hang out with her while she’s working and Wattson just has heart eyes when she works.
Very much into PDA! The moment she sees you, she wants to hold your hand or have her arm around you. She doesn’t mind the stares as long as she knows that you acknowledge her adoration for you!!
....Very much the little spoon when you two cuddle but she doesn’t mind being the big spoon either! Whatever makes you happy, she’s down to do, for the most part. Just make sure it’s a mutual exchange!!
Wraith | Renee Blasey
While for Natalie there’s plenty of PDA, for Renee....it’s mild. She doesn’t really show affection towards you in public but when she’s behind closed doors; she’s quite attached to you.
Dates you have with Wraith aren’t too fancy, crazy or extraordinary, but they’re simple and sweet for you two; late night walks in a city, talking about whatever, or stargazing on top of a building and just pointing at the stars and what they resemble like.
Renee doesn’t like to admit because for the most part she wants to feel like she’s keep you safe or protecting you, but she likes being held in your arms. She feels safe, and that nothing dangerous would happen.
You and Wraith sleep back to back but if you were to cuddle in your sleep, it’s back and forth between you and Renee to who the little and the big spoon are.

the legends’ love languages
bloodhound - quality time, no doubt about it.
gibraltar - strikes me as an absolute teddy bear so physical touch
lifeline - you can’t tell me miss medic over here doesn’t have acts of service as a love language
pathfinder - you could literally just acknowledge pathfinder and he would take it as a love language
wraith - quality time, she appreciates the calm moments with just her and her partner alone.
bangalore - acts of service, but also if her s/o was like “hey, i got you [object] at the store because i know you were running out” she would get teary-eyed over it
caustic - probably acts of service
mirage - physical touch and words of affirmation. man almost falls apart the first time he gets told that he’s important to someone. a hug is enough to make his entire week.
octane - physical touch. this guy has ALWAYS got to have his hands on his s/o. holding hands, hands around the waist, over the shoulder, on the butt, touching knees if they’re sitting next to each other, 24/7
wattson - words of affirmation! probably writes love letters to her s/o and throws in french terms of endearment
crypto - gifts for sure. he saves little (seemingly meaningless) trinkets from his partner and keeps them on his desk
revenant - *insert john mulaney gif: “hey, do you want me to kill that guy for you?”*
loba - surprisingly enough i don’t think her love language is gifts. i think she might gift high-quality things to her s/o to show love, but she doesn’t really like receiving gifts (she’d rather find them herself). i think she prefers quality time.
rampart - acts of service (”hey, what if i amped up your gun as an anniversary gift, yeah?”)
horizon - words or acts of service (such a mom, we know)
fuse - gifts, always picking out things for his s/o
valkyrie - quality time or physical touch. the girl LOVES to cuddle.

let me in (Horizon x reader)
Having Mary work day and night working on something to get back to her son, I could see it was slowly pull at her. I wish I could help her, but she always says she didn't need it. Always putting everything on herself and not letting anyone worry over her. I'm afraid she would work herself to death before she could return to her son. Looking over at the picture of her holding her son, I could feel my face fall into a sad smile. His green blue eyes bright in the sun light, a bright smile on his face. He had to see his mother again, I promise myself that, it's the least I can do. I'm just a legend who kills and do nothing. Everyone had something to do, I'm just someone who joined to get a kick out of it.
"Are you alright? You have been staring at the picture for some time."
turning to Anita, a small smile on my face as shack my head.
"I have been thinking of doing something with my life for once. All I do all day is shoot the enemy when the games happen and the rest is just kick back and do nothing. The least I can do is do something with my life."
Anita smiled, placing her hand on my shoulder, giving it a slight shack.
"Then do it. I believe you can do anything as long as you do it."
I nod, giving her a small thank you before rushing off. Looking around for Mary, I had to tell her that she needs to take a break. Pulling out my phone, scrolling through my contact finding who I was looking for.
"Hey Mary! Mind if I drop by? I know you are pretty busy, but I can get you some food and you can take a quick break."
"That sounds lovely, darlin'. I have a feeling you know where to find me."
"I do, see you in 10 alright?"
"See ya then, dear."
quickly to say goodbye, I was grinning. Her voice is just so nice to listen to, the nicknames as well, huge weakness of mine. Picking up some food from the cafeteria I quickly rushed off to find Mary. Skipping up the steps, passing Alex in the hallway.
"Good day Dr. Nox."
"Good day."
Rolling my eyes at how cold he was, I stopped in front of the door, taking a deep breath. I knocked on the door, I waited for a response, sad for me I didn't get an answer. Pushing open the door, getting greeted by a very focused Mary. Walking in, softly closing the door, I walked over to the only empty table, placing down the food. Keeping quiet so I didn't pull her out of the focus place she was. As soon as she looked up, her eyes landed on me, giving her a soft smile.
"Hello, sweetheart."
"Darlin'! You should have said something!"
laughing, I shook my head, as she quickly got up from her spot and rushed over to me. leaning down to give me a quick hug.
"You looked so focused I just couldn't just pull you out of it."
Looking at her, she got thinner since the last time I saw her, as well as the dark circles under her eyes. She looked unhealthy, ready to fall asleep at any moment. Taking a seat as well, pushing the food to her, so she can choose which one she wanted. A tired thank you was sent my way as I took the other one.
"Mary, you look tired, are you getting enough sleep?"
That made her look at me, her eyes were even tired-looking. A defeated sigh left her lips, placing down her fork. A small smile pulling at her lips.
"Can't hide anything from you can I now, dearie."
"You can't hide looking tired from me, I know how it looks all too well."
Placing my hand on top of hers, giving it a soft squeeze, she turned her hand over so she was holding mine. Before placing her head on top of it. closing her eyes, she squeezed my hand back. Pulling my chair closer to her, I placed my head on top of hers.
"I know you want to see your son again, but doing it like this might just kill you before you do so. Please, sweetheart, take a break, or at least take a nap. You look too tired to even think. I... I lov-"
Cutting myself off, as I sit up, shaking my head.
"I wouldn't want to see you work yourself to death before you see your son again. I want you to have that happy ending that you deserve after what happened to you. So please Mary, let me help you. Let me in and I would do anything to help you."
Turning her head, looking up at me, eyes unreadable as I gave her a pleading look. I just want her to be alright, to be in tip-top shape to see her son again. To fulfill that promise to see him again, to be there to tell him goodnight and good morning.
"I... I just want to see him again, dear. I'm afraid to lose more time, that I will see him when I'm too old. What if with this-"
"No, Mary, if you keep doing this to yourself, you will defiantly not see him again! You will work yourself into the grave, and I won't let you do that to yourself! I care about you, Mary! I don't want to come into this room and see you lifeless on top of your work! To not see you fulfill your promise to your son and not see you happy!"
I was out of breath by the end of it, tears in the corner of my eyes. Staring down at her, as she slowly lifted her head, tears also in her eyes before hers began to fall freely. Letting go of her hand, I stood up and pulling her into the crock of my neck. She clung onto me, hands gripping the back of my shirt, tears wettening my shirt. But I could care less, if this would help her feel better then so be it. Pulling the goggles from her head, slowly beginning to run my hand through her hair. Telling her it's alright, to let it out, that I'm not going anywhere. Pulling her tightly against me, holding back my own tears.
"I just want to see him, Sam. I want his bright eyes back in my life, to hold him and tell him I love him. I want to see him grow up and be there for him. I-"
A loud sob cut her sentence short, shushing her, pushing her hair out of her face. Taking hold of her face, tilting her head back so she was looking at me. Her cheeks red, eyes still full with tears, eyes filled themselves with sadness.
"You will, Mary. I know you can achieve that but pushing yourself that much will only lead to nothingness."
She nods, as I wiped her cheeks from tears, smiling at her. Her smile was a little broken but that's alright she was still so beautiful to me. I can't, if she knows then she might feel bound to his time and I want her to return to her son. Letting go of her face I slide out of her hold, But her longer limbs pulled me back.
"Don't leave. Stay."
"I'm wasn't going to go, sweetheart."
"No, I mean, stay with me, Darlin'. You have done so much for me in the last couple of months. I would love for you to stay with me. i-"
"I this is a love conversion, don't. I do not want you to feel that you have to stay in this time. I want you to be happy with your son. I do not fit in that perfect picture. Please ma-"
Abruptly she stood up, I quickly took a step back out of her hold. towering over me, staring me down, a pleading look on her face. Taking hold of my hands, she pulled me back into her. It was her turn to hold me against her, her head resting on top of mine.
"Darlin' I would take my son to this time if it means being with you. I love my son a lot but I love you as well but that doesn't mean I wouldn't spend every second with you as well. I love you dearly, ghaoil. So please don't say you don't fit in this picture, without you it wouldn't be perfect."
Pulling back, looking up at her, she softly smiled, eyes still filled with tears. Brushing hair away from my forehead, her fingers lingered on my head. A sigh left my mouth, as I leaned into those fingers. Dropping her hand to hold my face, she leaned down, her lips connecting with mine. I melted into her, wrapping my arms around her waist, her other hand joining to hold my face. As air ran thin, we pulled back, leaning our foreheads together.
"Love you so much, ghaoil. You have no idea for how long I wanted to do that."
"I have been starring at you for so long, Mary, you have no idea. I love you just as much."
basking in the moment, forgetting the world around us, we enjoyed each other's presents. Mary leaned down once more to kiss me again and again and again.
"I can't get enough of ya'. Ya' taste so sweet."
Feeling my face burning up, I pushed my face into her shoulder. rumbling under my breath that, that sounded embarrassing. Laughing, she ran her hand through my hair, taking hold on the base of it, pulling my head away from her shoulder, a grin on her face.
"Can't hide the true darlin'."
"Shut it, Mary!"
Laughing she kissed my forehead, hugging me close to her. Taking in a deep breath, I just let myself lean against her, gripping onto the back of her shirt.
This...
This feels like home.

Apex Legends Fanbase Imagine
So with the trailer for Season 8 showing an audience at Fuse’s induction into the games, it got me thinking: there must be times when the legends can interact with fans or like maybe they sell merch and the proceeds go toward funding the games, etc. So this is just a fun imagine of how I think the different legends would interact with their fanbase.
~~~~~
Bangalore:
She’s professional about meet and greets, but not in an uptight kind of way. She definitely loves taking photos with the kids. She’s very easy going and is good at making light conversation with her fans. 
Wattson:
Very eager to sign autographs and talk science! Of course many probably bring her some Nessies to sign and she happily obliges. You’ll find her ecstatic to gush about electricity and her and her father’s work. She enjoys giving words of encouragement to her fans.
Bloodhound:
They’re a little bit shy. They don’t mind to sign whatever is brought to them and to take a few photos, but at times they’ll take a break and simply exchange a few words with their fans. Fairly closed off during conversation, but cordial.
Mirage:
Oh, he’s having a great time! His merch table not only has t-shirts, but it’s got prints/photos of him, mini Mirage trophies, etc. He’s very charismatic and fun. Low-key trying to outdo Octane in the fanbase department. Occasionally joins in for vocals in any jam sesh.
Octane:
Very energetic! He’s doing it all! He’s signing the butts and the chests. He’s doing all sorts of crazy poses and getting selfies with his fans. A few probably get matching tattoos like his and he’s over the moon. This is his natural habitat.
Caustic:
Well, his side of town may be a bit quiet as he isn’t one for crowds. He is the type that will sit at the table and sign the merch then take photos from his seat. He also talks about science with anyone else that shows a shared interest.
Wraith:
She does her best to enjoy herself, but she may not always be interested in interactions with the fans. After all, she has other concerns. You’ll catch her blushing a bit though when fans do come  up to her and bring her things. She’s a little awkward and doesn’t always know how to say thank you.
Horizon:
Again, great with the kids and again, loves talking science. She’s happy to sign anything and take photos. When the crowds die down, you can catch a glimpse of melancholy on her face, but other than she’s very cheerful and welcoming.
Crypto:
He’s another one on the stoic side. He doesn’t do photos. Hard no. He’ll sign merch though. He hangs back and isn’t terribly good at conversation with his fans. He and Mirage will exchange jabs when there’s a lull in the crowds.
Gibraltar:
He’s having a great time as well. He’s very friendly with everyone. He’ll sign just about anything and take as many photos as you ask. Catch him playing some tunes while he’s waiting for his next fan to come up and talk to him.
Fuse:
He and Gibraltar have jam sessions when the crowd thins. He loves interacting with the fans who often bring him drinks much to his delight. And he’s quite the flirt, but very playful about it.
Lifeline:
Another one who enjoys the kids. She and Horizon make smalltalk over their drones. She also jams with Gibraltar and Fuse on occasion. Lifeline is very generous and empathetic with her fans.
Loba:
A huge flirt. Major. She likes getting some of her fans flustered, but generally she’s very nice. Her own trauma does not make her a suitable candidate around children. She seems wary of them through her composure. She will glare daggers where Revenant is if fans interact with him. If you visit him and then her, she will have a passive aggressive comment to say.
Pathfinder:
Sweet, boy. He’s just having a good time even if he doesn’t understand all the social cues or jokes. Revenant gives him a hard time about it occasionally and Mirage chimes in to the rescue. He has a zipline set up and is generous enough to take people for a quick ride.
Rampart:
Very laid back and chill. She and her fans talk mods. Caustic will eyeroll at these conversations. Rampart enjoys the meet and greets and uses them as a way to grow her business.
Revenant:
Absolutely no kids. Not after he scared the life out of the first and only one. There’s probably a little sign with a word of caution. Revenant doesn’t entirely understand the concept of the meet and greets and he sort of goes through the motions. He doesn’t do photos. Hard no. If he signs something he just scribbles an R haphazardly onto the surface. He’ll crack morbid jokes here and there.
Valkyrie:
Very laid back and casual about the whole thing. If you’re lucky she’ll give you a quick ride in the sky. Catch her and Loba mildly flirting in between the crowds.

The Legends Under the Mistletoe with You (part 1)
Bangalore: pretty chill about it. Apparently the brunt of a joke back in the IMC. Instead of a kiss, you’d punch the other person really hard. When she sees someone under the mistletoe, her immediate instinct is to punch. She punches you (pretty hard) in the arm. Once she notices it’s you, she composes herself and apologizes. She offers to uh, kiss it better.
Bloodhound: is interested by such a tradition, since it has been upheld for a long period of time- like the Old Ways. And Bloodhound is one to uphold a tradition, especially if It’s harmless. They wait around the mistletoe, not wanting to pressure you. Once you appear underneath, they’ll appear, asking to take part in the tradition. They take their mask off and kiss you quickly before closing it up again. You’ve no idea if they’re blushing or not. But you sure are.
Caustic: sits nearby, hypothesizing how many people will go under. Well that’s no fun! He ends up being one of the first ones because you take his arm and drag him under, kissing him. He’s speechless for a moment, having not expected to get kissed at all. Once he regulates his breathing, he thanks you, and returns to his little post, no longer hypothesizing.
Crypto: avoids the doorway all evening, even evading Mirage’s multiple pushes (the old man needs to get some). After the evening rush, you’re the only two who are left, and you go through the door together by accident. He’s very bashful, not saying much. But when you lean in and kiss him quickly, he clears his throat rather loudly. And his ears are tipped with red. He’s a little awkward with you afterwards. Though that is not to say he didn’t like it. He’s just not used to affection like that. Smother him!
Gibraltar: he’s all smiles, not afraid at all of being kissed. What did you expect from someone as outgoing as Makoa? By now, he’s probably realized you’re crushing on him, and he’s the same! He’ll take your hand gently, and go to the mistletoe, making the first move. He’ll ask you what you think, then say to bring it in, giving you a sweet kiss on the cheek, and hugging you comfortingly after. He’s glowing afterwards!
Horizon: Mary hasn’t kissed or been kissed by anyone in a while. And when she did, it was usually giving her son, Newton, a kiss on the cheek or forehead before school, or before bed. When the two of you happen to pass each other under the mistletoe, Mary smiles calmly, waving you in closer. “Come on then,” she says, cupping your head in her hands, and pressing a soft kiss in the middle of your forehead. When you ask to do the same, Mary laughs, and you plant one on her forehead too.
Lifeline: not the type to mess around. She stays away from the door only jumping through when necessary, and when she is sure it is safe. She isn’t about to kiss just anyone. It’s got to be you! When you pass under the mistletoe, Ajay jumps at the chance, playing it off as if she just happened to be there are the right time. She takes your hand as you embrace. It’s very sweet, if not for Octane who shouted at what he just saw. “Ha, Che, you’re finally getting some!”

Do I main horizon because I’m good at playing her? Absolutely not.
Do I main horizon because I like hearing her funny little voice lines? Yes, yes I do.

i know that a lot of the legends probably look at horizon like 🥺 but consider what bloodhound must think of her. they lost their mama so young and only had artur after that, and only for a couple of years. imagine how they must feel to have a mother figure in their life again...

The Legends React To: Being Handed a Baby
This involves some Pathfinder Book Lore, but its pretty minor.
Bloodhound: Was handed a baby by an overexcited fan at an event. The baby cried at their mask but started to calm down when they began speaking softly; Bloodhound figured it was because the baby recognized their voice from HoloTV. They’re secretly fond of babies and little children, so they might take a little longer to give the child back to its parent than expected, and they might have spent the rest of the event musing, a little sadly, whether or not they and Boone would have ended up with a child.
Gibraltar: Dude loves kids, though he prefers it when they can start running and playing versus when they’re tiny and breakable. Still, babies are cute, and every time he gets handed one at an event, whether it be family or Apex related, he’s ready to be the cool uncle.
Lifeline: Some Apex Exec wanted a picture of the great Lifeline holding his baby for internet points and so just sort of shoved it in her arms. She doesn’t really know what to do with babies. In theory she knows how to keep one alive, but in practice she’s not really run into many in warzones so she just kind of holds it by the torso before eventually moving it to her hip and asking how it’s day has been. Strangely, babies adore her.
Pathfinder: Immediately tries to ask the baby about its hobbies before it starts bawling because it’s being held by some weird metal hands with rubber finger pads and it feels weird. He might love the miniature friends, but they do not love him.
Wraith: She gets roped in to helping Wattson babysit for some Apex Games higher-up and was handed the baby-baby immediately upon arriving so Wattson could chase after the toddler. In short, she finds babies fascinating, with their weird little fingers and huge eyes. She likes talking to them and seeing their reactions, and wonders frequently if she might have had a kid or something before. She acts uninterested because she finds it a little embarrassing to actually like babies, but she never has objected to helping Wattson babysit.
Bangalore: She might have been the baby of her family, but the Williamses is a huge clan and she had tons of little cousins forced into her arms over the years, to the point she still isn’t even surprised if one is handed off to her, and hasn’t questioned it the few times it has happened at events. Like Gibraltar, she prefers it when the kids are old enough to cause a little trouble. Her favorite game to play with babies is peekaboo and she finds the faces they make when she blows a raspberry at them hilarious. She will take these facts to her grave.
Caustic: He holds enough sympathy to find somebody else more capable to hold it, or a decently supportive armchair to leave it in, maybe tape something shiny to the forehead to make sure no one sits on it. But this would only be applicable if anyone actually handed him a baby.
Mirage: Kids! Kids are cool, was a camp counselor that one summer. It was to pick up chicks (and maybe that one guy was kind of cute but he was still questioning that one) but kids were also super fun. Babies? Babies were confusing, babies cry. He’s the baby brother, but unlike Bangalore he didn’t have a bunch of little cousins, he just had himself, so tiny wiggly humans kind of leave him at a loss. He desperately wants a couple of his own one day, though, so he’s taking the numerous occasions fans hand him babies (and try to get him to sign them(he does not)) as a learning opportunity. Many funny faces are made. Many tiny humans have cried. His faces have gotten better since Wraith started bringing him along on her babysitting…missions? Assignments? Either way, there’s a lot less crying babies at events now.
Octane: He actually knows how to hold one because of those health classes in school that his dad and Lifeline forced him to actually go to. If someone just hands him a baby for whatever reason, he’s actually pretty chill about it and definitely doesn’t miss out on the selfie opportunity. It isn’t advisable to leave him alone, though, cause the baby’s first word is liable to be a curse word, and probably in Spanish.
Wattson: She’s always happy to see a new little face! But only one or two at a time. Beyond that babies can get overwhelming, especially if they start crying. It actually isn’t that uncommon for Wattson to just be handed a baby since she grew up with a lot of the executives and staff around the Games and, particularly after her Papa passed, took to babysitting a lot of their kids to avoid being alone. She’s thought a lot of having her own little family, like her and her Papa, except it would be nice to have someone to raise a baby with.
Crypto: Mystik did adopt him and his sister, but that didn’t mean they were exempt from helping in the orphanage. Dude knows how to change, feed, soothe, entertain, and understand babies better than a lot of parents. He doesn’t get handed babies anymore because he keeps his hands firmly in his pockets or otherwise occupied, but on the rare occasions he visits home, he inevitably has an infant cooing in his lap. He’s often thought that the first thing he wants to do whenever he can finally go back to a normal life is find someone, settle down, and adopt a couple kids.
Revenant: Ever wondered what it would sound like if a baby was slam dunked through a basketball hoop? You’ll find out if you give him a baby.
Loba: Imagine the face a cat makes after licking a lemon, and that’s about Loba’s reaction to being handed an infant. She has no idea how to hold one or what to do with it, and she’s not particularly motivated to learn. She doesn’t hate them or anything, she’ll smile and wave at them in the grocery store and is about as happy as anybody else is when you get a random baby to smile at you, but there’s too many potential tragedies associated with the things for her taste. Also, the poop.
Rampart: Will flat out ask someone why the hell they just handed her a baby. Basically a more responsible Octane, except the kid is gonna come back cussing in Hindi. Babysat for money until she was 13 and figured out giant guns were a lot more lucrative and involved a lot less spit-up.
Horizon: She’s always overjoyed! She adores babies, and babies adore her. She is the only Legend to have asked someone if she could hold their baby. She has also been known to wander off with stranger’s children  because she just gets so distracted interacting with them at both scientific and Apex oriented events, but it only caused a little scene once and after that it became, “where’s your kid?” “Horizon’s got ‘em” “Oh cool.” It helps to fill the Newton shaped void in her heart a little better than the vacuum.
Fuse: Got handed a kid a couple times on Salvo, being the cool uncle to Maggie’s nieces and nephews. Though he’s the ideal uncle for 8-12 year olds, he’s cool with babies, makes funny faces, pretends to hold a long-winded conversation for the baby’s amusement and his. Maggie always made fun of him for it in a friendly way, it’s one of the things he misses. Nobody’s handed him a baby since he left Salvo though. He’s kinda disappointed sometimes.
Valkyrie: Doesn’t really “do” babies; it’s something her and Loba agree on, though Valkyrie looks less like she licked a lemon and more like a pianist who’s been handed a cello and told to play Fur Elise; she just flat out doesn’t know what to do with them and does not care. Her mom tried to get her to babysit growing up, but she always had the tendency to vanish when the idea of responsibility reared its ugly head. If handed a baby, she will hand it to the next nearest Legend and immediately vacate the premises.
