the way I sent that ask in ages ago, but anyways- what I want to say still applies
my serious question is: make out with me.
I am so sorry for the late reply T^T I was too busy having a breakdown
Is that even a question? Of course the answer is yes

Faces to Names
When I say I feel like I struck gold on Pinterest today - I discovered AI Na'vi 'face claims' this afternoon, and I tell you my heart absolutely soared when I discovered I could find a 'face' that suited each of my leading ladies in my various Neteyam x Reader/OC works! 😍 A lot of these AI renders are free-to-use, but none of them are mine, so kudos to the original creators!
This first one made me cry almost. 😭 This could absolutely be Ria from 'Violet Eyes', complete with her lovely violet eyes! It's probably just a coincidence, but I could KISS the creator for this. 💕
Tumblr media
2. This next one just screams Naia to me, the childhood sweetheart who Neteyam returns home to the Omatikaya for in 'To Know You Again'. 🥰
Tumblr media
3. This third darling has all the innocence in her expression of Seyla in 'Show Me & Teach Me'
Tumblr media
4. One of my younger reader/OC characters is Kalia in my oneshot 'Your Best Friend's Brother'. Apart from the seashells, this render is spot-on for her.
Tumblr media
5. And of course, probably the reader/OC ya'll are most familiar with: Neyomi from 'The Love Shack'. She's very sexy in my head and this render captures that nicely.
Tumblr media
6. From my Kinktober #31 Omegaverse prompt 'I See You', this could be Leiko. 🥰
Tumblr media
Of course, as readers you're all welcome to imagine yourselves/these characters however you wish. These are just renders that suit the visions of how I see them in my own head. And I'm just amazed at what AI renders can come up with now. Just WOW. 🤩

Dark Crystal Tik-Tok challenge: My s/o doesn't love my anymore.
Deet to Rian:
Mitjan was preparing lunch when the holo-crystal rang. He pressed it up from its sheath with his elbow to accept the transmit.
“Hello”?
“F-Father”.
Mitja whipped his head at the sound of his daughter sniffling and on the brink of tears. Paternal instinct began to surge through him.
“What happened Deethra”? He asked, trying to keep the panic down in case it was nothing.
“R-Rian...He said”. Deet dramatically covered her mouth with a trembling fist “He said that he doesn't love me anymore”.
“I did NOT say that! Why are you lying to your father”?! Rian called off the screen. Mitjan couldn't tell if he sounded annoyed or was in jest.
“What did you say then”? Deet sniped at her right.
“I just said that I’m not buying you a fizzgig. You have a whole farm of slimy worms back home, those are your pets”.
“But they're not here, are they”?!
“I'm not having a fuzzball rolling over and shitting on my carpet”!
Deet rolled her, turning back to her father “So yeah this relationship might not last long”.
“Oh Deet”. Mitjan sighed, cutting off the call and going back to cooking lunch.
Rian to Deet:
Gurjin was shocked that Rian was calling him right now. Usually when he was on a date with Deet his phone would be on vibrate so he could focus on their activity.
Thinking the worst, Gurjin picked up after the first ring.
“What's wrong”?
“Deet doesn't love me anymore”.
“...huh”?
Gurjin could make out his friend’s monotone expression, imagining a look of deadpan on his face.
“My girlfriend of 2 years doesn't love me anymore”.
“I didn't say that”! Deet exclaimed, clearly sounded offended.
“What did you say then”? Rian challenged, leaving Gurjin to wonder if he should have even picked up the phone.
“I said I didn't want to go to the armory expo with you, I’ve been seven times I’ve had enough”.
“It's the same thing”!
“No, it is not! I'm tired of learning about the different wars and the glorification of bloodshed. Can't we go to the zoo or something ”?
“You liked it the first seven times”.
“I just started dating you, I was being nice”.
Gurjin hung up just as Rian let out a scandalous gasp. This sounded like a private matter.
Brea to Kylan:
“Darling, your sister is calling”.
Tavra turned off the treadmill, taking the towel Onica offered before her cell phone.
“Thanks, love” she grabbed the water bottle before answering the holo call “Hello”?
“T-Tavra”.
Said sister was greeted at the sight of her sister dramatically crying with glossy amber eyes.
“What's wrong this time”? Tavra chuckled, recognizing the famous crocodile tears her sister is known for in their household.
“T-T-Tavra” Blubbered Brea “Kylan told me...he doesn't love me anymore”.
A tanned hand gently landed on Brea’s head, giving her assuring head rubs. Tavra immediately recognized the affectionate gesture to come from Kylan.
“Brea, I just said I wouldn't marry you today”.
“It's the same thing”! Brea cried, burrowing her face into the couch arm.
“We’re still in university and I don't have enough money to get you a ring or-”.
“WELL GET ONE THEN! PLEASE”! Tavra winced at her sister’s harsh wailing through the speaker.
“I said soon...maybe”.
“Well it seems that two have that figured out. I'm gonna go mack on my girlfriend now, see ya”.
“TAVRA WAIT!! CONVINCE YOUR FUTURE BROTHER TO-”.
Tavra quickly cut off her sister’s pleas, hurrying to find Onica.
Kylan to Brea:
Naia sipped a bit of her smoothie before answering her phone after the first ring. As she always did when Kylan called.
“Yo”.
“Hey”. sighed Kylan, he sounded dejected which caused Naia some concern.
“Are you...Okay”?
“Yes, I mean as okay as one can be when their significant other tells them they don't love you anymore”.
Naia bit her lip when she heard a soft groan from Brea.
“I did not say that”!
“Oh no? Clarify what you said then”?
“I just said, respectfully and kindly, I'm not watching ‘Jara-Jen’ with you for the 50th time this week’”.
“Oh wow, seriously Klan”. Quipped Naia with a smirk.
“Hey! It's a good series and with amazing plot and dialogue”!
“I know because we’ve seen it 50 times this week”.
“It's a good show, Naia can you support me here please”.
Naia sucked her teeth “SSory Ky, gonna have to go with Brea on this one”.
“Fine, You're dead to me for the next five minutes”. With a humph, the click of the end of the call signaled Kylan hanging up.
Naia looked at her phone in confusion.
“Why specifically five minutes”?
Mothria to Gurjin:
A little while later after Kylan’s little call, Naia was surprised to get a call from Mothria who was often too busy on this day.
She set her bola crafting down to answer.
“Hi Mothy”.
“Your brother no longer loves me”.
“What! That is a lie. Why the fuck you lying”.,
Oh Thra, again?
“Awww, is he being a jerk again”? Naia cooed.
“Yeah he is”.
“All I said was I'm not going to ditch my friends at the movies so you can go to couples yoga”.
“I'm hearing ‘let's break up, I no longer love you Mothria”.
“For the love of Agura”.
“Who misses out on an opportunity to see their girlfriend in tight yoga pants”. Naia bit back a mocking giggle.
“A gelfling who wants to see guts and gore”.
“... Gurjin I feel I should apologize to you”.
“Why”?
“For taking most of your brain cells while we were in the womb together”.
Naia cackled as she hung up and tossed her phone next to her, returning to her crafting with a mischievous smile.
Gurjin to Mothria:
Rian groaned as he was rudely interrupted from his nap by the blaring of his phone.
His hand stumbled as he tried to find it on the coffee table, unintentionally knocking some of the knickknacks off.
“Hey” he responded with a groggy voice, arm over his eyes.
“Rian, my friend, comfort me in my time of need”. Gurjin’s begging didn't even stir the man from his half-sleep.
“What do you want”?
“Mothria, my beloved lovemoth of four years, has told me that she doesn't love me anymore”.
“That is not what you said you dinkleberry”!
Rian pulled the phone away from ear at Mothria’s booming voice.
“Well what did you say?! Explain yourself woman”!
“I said you can't grope my butt when we shop. We’ll get banned”.
“Don't worry about that we can ask my mom to lift the ban if we do”.
“How would we explain that? ‘Hey Maudra Laesid, your son likes to sexually grope me while we're shopping and that leads to us being banned. Could you lift it please so we can continue to do so without consequences”?
“...I probably would word it differently, but yeah something like that”.
“Oh my-”.
Rian cut the line off, leaving the sogling couple to their dispute and allowing him to return back to his nap.

Bonded to you Pt.15
Daryl Dixon x Reader
Tumblr media
Chapter: 15/17
Words: 3289 on Mondays
Summary:  Daryl and reader had a something while they both stayed at the Sanctuary after the Saviours were defeated, a secret sort of relationship, that reader wanted to make something more. However, after Rick blows the bridge, Daryl leaves her without a word, unaware of her being pregnant with his child and it’s not after almost two years that Daryl finds out he has a child…and his anger at reader for not having told him before, rivals with reader’s anger at having being tossed aside as nothing by him those to years ago…will they be able to put aside their hurt feelings and resenment, for their kid? Will maybe be able to pick up their relationship again?
Dad Daryl, cute fluffy baby-toddler moments, angsty/awkward reader relationship.
You can find more chapters and  Daryl fics in my masterlist.
Last chapter, reader got stomach sick and so Daryl went to their place to help around and keep an eye on their kid, reader and him share some moments together, talking...
*
The afternoon was spent on listening to Naia babbling to you what she had done at the park, and then Daryl reading to you both again the book that Carol had given Naia at the Kingdom. After a while, though, you felt something in your belly, and you were pretty sure those weren’t painful cramps but actually your stomach growling, and quite loudly, since Daryl noticed too.
“I think…I think I might be hungry?” You said, surprised, and Daryl smiled.
“That’s a good sign, yeah?”
“I think so…I hope! Damn, I’m starving!” You chuckled.
“I’m gonna bring you something.” Daryl rushed onto his feet. “Naia, stay here, okay sweetheart?”
Naia nodded, but as soon as Daryl was out of the room, she began walking towards your bed.
“No! Stop!” You said a little louder than you’d have wanted to, and Naia stopped but pouted. “Sorry, I’m sorry, darling, I’m sorry I yelled,” you rushed to apologize.
“Want mommy.”
“I know, darling, and I want it too, but I don’t want to make you sick, okay?” You explained again.
“Dog.” She pointed at the dog, who was at the feet of the bed.
“But Dog can’t get sick.” Could he? You hadn’t thought about it…you hoped he couldn’t. “I’ll tell Daryl to bring Siddiq tomorrow, and of he says I’m good then I’ll hold you and I won’t put you down for the whole day and night.” You honestly couldn’t wait. “Okay, darling?”
Naia nodded, but she seemed down, and it hurt you, but you didn’t know what else to do.
When Daryl came back with a bowl of stew, the sight and smell of it made your stomach growl even more, and you began to devour it. “Take it easy,” Daryl warned you, but he smiled looking at you eating, and you tried to slow down. He frowned looking at Naia, who still seemed a bit down, and he picked her up to sit on the chair with her on his lap. “Look, mom’s eating yeah? That means she’s better, and soon she’s gonna be good. Okay?” Naia looked at you and then at Daryl, and finally she smiled, nodding.
They stayed in your room for another hour, playing with the construction blocks and talking with you, until it was time for them to have dinner, Daryl offered to bring you more stew and dine with you, but you didn’t want to push your luck and you wanted to wait and see if you could hold down the one you had eaten.
“Alright…” Daryl walked closer to pick up the empty bowl and then he looked at you but didn’t say anything.
“What?”
“Nothing…” Daryl looked away, blushing, and you frowned, wondering what was going on. “I just…well, I uh…” He looked at Naia, who was talking with Dog as she showed him a construction block, then at you, then quickly away. “I..uh…I mean it, what I said…that I liked to be here…with Naia but uh…with you, too.”
Daryl didn’t give you time to say anything, already walking away and reaching his hand for Naia, telling her that they were going to have dinner and then go back up with mom, but you didn’t know what to say either. It was good that Daryl liked to spend time with you, yes, it was…too good, maybe, his words had made your heart flutter again, and there were twirls in your stomach that you were very sure weren’t due to neither sickness nor hunger.
You didn’t know what to think, though. Daryl could say that just because you both were friends, having managed to push past everything that had happened between you two, past all your wrong decisions, guilt, and anger, sure you both enjoyed each other company.
But…
But what if he might mean something else? What if he felt like you maybe, maybe felt, what if he maybe still had some feelings for you that weren’t only friendly…You felt divided, pulled into a million different thoughts and considerations. If that was the case, which you weren’t sure it was, you still thought that it might be not worth the risk to try something again, just to have it ending badly once more, this time it’d hurt Naia too…but what if it didn’t end badly? Another voice in your head asked, only to have another shushing it.
You groaned aloud, hiding your face in your hands. Probably you should stop overthinking stuff, you didn’t even know what Daryl meant, you weren’t even sure of your own feelings…were you?
Ugh.
This was a mess, you were a mess, your feelings were a mess, why everything had to be always a mess between Daryl and you…and yet, there they were, those stupid flutters in your heart and those damn twirls in your stomach. You tried to stomp on them… without much luck.
You were still a mess of weird feelings when Daryl and Naia came back to the room and your heart did a weird thing again before you controlled yourself and your silly reckless feelings.
They stayed there with you until it was time for Naia to sleep, and though she once again didn’t want to leave you, Daryl managed to convince her.
“Daryl?” You called for him before he left the room. “I like to spend time with you too.” You didn’t know why you said it, maybe you shouldn’t, but you knew it was true. And maybe…maybe the way in which Daryl smiled at your words made them worthy.
You tried to stop your million different trains of thoughts by focusing on Daryl’s voice as he read to Naia in the other room, though you couldn’t stop neither the thoughts nor the feelings, but you found yourself feeling a bit drowsy after a while. You were awake, though, when Daryl came back to check on you, and you noticed him at the threshold of the door.
“I’m awake,” you told him quietly before he left.
“You should be sleeping.”
“I’m trying.” You chuckled, Daryl could be worse than any nurse sometimes.
“You need something?” Daryl asked as he walked in.
“No, I’m good.”
“Sure you don’t want more stew?”
You considered it for a second but decided to wait and see how your stomach did. “No, I’m good.”
“Okay, but if you wake up hungry you tell me, okay?” Daryl told you and you nodded, even if you weren’t sure you’d feel like waking up Daryl if he was asleep. “Sure you don’t need anything?”
“Actually…” You chewed on your lip. “It’s embarrassing but could you walk with me to the bathroom? When I went before I was still weak on my legs…”
“Sure, come on.” Daryl nodded and walked closer to you, reaching out his hand and helping you up.”
“Woah…” You felt a bit dizzy as you got up and weak still as you tried to walk.
“Careful,” Daryl stopped your wobbling. “You sure you’re okay?”
“Yes, I’m sure I feel like this because of not eating, not because I’m sick.” You explained.
“Then maybe you should try to eat a bit…” Daryl seemed worried, and when you wobbled again he stopped you. “Wait, come here.” He wrapped an arm around you to hold you more firmly and you found your own arm wrapping around him almost as it own accord…you had all kind of feelings and twirls in your belly feeling Daryl holding you, leaning against his warm body, close like that…you tried to stop it, Daryl was just being kind and helpful, and helping you walk, and there you were thinking all kind of things that you shouldn’t.
“I got it from here,” you murmured once you both reached the door of the bathroom, embarrassed.
“Careful,” Daryl let go of you and you walked into the bathroom, supporting yourself with the wall and closing the door behind you. Once you were done and walked out, Daryl reached out to wrap his arm around you again, and you couldn’t help yourself from leaning into him.
It felt good, to be held by him, to felt his body against you, after all this time, no matter that you tried to ignore it.
“There you go.” Daryl walked you to the bed and helped you lower down, sitting down on the mattress as he made sure you were stable.
Daryl had his arms still around you waist, looking at you as he made sure you were alright while you held onto him, arms around his shoulders, not having let go of him quite yet as you looked at each other in silence, and that flash of feelings that you couldn’t get rid of seemed to go between you two again.
Daryl seemed to lean towards you, or maybe it was you who did it, but suddenly it seemed as if you two were closer, and then, before you could even realize what was going on, you were kissing. You thought it was Daryl who had kissed you, but maybe it had been you who kissed him, you weren’t sure, but you were too far gone to care, kissing him back as his hand cupped your cheek, butterflies flying in your belly…at least until you realized what were you doing and you went back to your senses, pulling back.
Daryl looked at you and you looked at him. “I thought…I…” He mumbled before looking away. “Sorry.” He muttered as he got up from the bed but you reached out, holding his arm out of instinct, trying to stop him from going away, knowing that he thought you were rejecting him, and maybe it would be better to let him think that, but you just couldn’t.
“Daryl, wait…I wanted to kiss you,” you admitted shyly, and Daryl looked at you, seeming confused. “But…it’s complicated…”
“How?”
“You know that you and I have history…”
Daryl shook his head, seeming frustrated. “No, just say what you think.”
“Okay…” You let out a sigh, trying to find words to explain that mess of feelings and thoughts that not even you understood, and you tugged at Daryl’s arm so he’d sit down on the bed again. “So…I think I have feelings for you again, or maybe they never went away, I don’t know…” You shrugged, chewing on your lip. “So maybe I’d want to, well, have something with you again, it seems I can’t stop thinking about it all the time…But it’s complicated, it’s not like before, we have a kid now.”
“Ain’t that more reason to be together?” Daryl asked, frown on his face.
“I…I guess…but if we try something and it doesn’t work, it’d hurt her, if we mess things between us, it’d affect her too, I know you don’t want that.”
“I don’t.” Daryl nodded. “But we’ve been taking care of her together all these months, I thought…dunno…” He shrugged, seeming shy. “Why we’d mess it?”
“It’s not like it went that well between us last time, it ended…badly…” You said weakly and Daryl let out a sigh, running a hand through his hair.
“I know the way I left you was wrong, I told you I know, I sorry, you know I am,” he said without looking up at you.
“I know…just…” You chewed on your lip, considering your next words, not sure of how Daryl might react. “Daryl, what was I for you, before?”
“What you mean?”
“I mean…” You felt shy to say it, but you forced yourself. “I loved you, you know it, right? I did…and what I always wondered is…did you love me? I know you liked to be with me, I know you cared for me, and it’s not like it wasn’t enough but…did you love me?”
Daryl seemed as shy and awkward as you had guessed he would, but he didn’t pull away from you, in fact he reached to hold your hand, and you felt his fingers twitching nervously. “I did… I know I ain’t…that I wasn’t good at saying or showing it, but I did. If I hadn’t, it wouldn’t have been so hard to leave, wouldn’t have been afraid of not being able to leave if I saw you first, talked to you, wouldn’t have had to run away from you as I did. But I loved you…and…and I don’t think I ever really stopped.”
You weren’t sure of what you were expecting, but Daryl’s words were more than what you were expecting anyway, it made you feel all those things that you had tried not to, that flutter in your heart, the butterflies in your belly, everything, and part of you felt like pulling him closer and kissing him again, but you didn’t.
“That’s…that’s good to hear…” You tried to follow your brain and not your heart, but you couldn't help the twirls in your belly at his words, the way in which your smile grew, giddy almost, and you bit your lip, trying to control your feelings. “But Daryl, I need to know what you want, I need you to be sure…do you want us to be together again, a relationship?
“You don’t?” Daryl asked, frown on his face.
“I…I shouldn’t, but I do, I can’t help it, I can’t help how I feel for you…” You admitted, shy. You had tried, but you couldn’t stop it, and you knew that you had longed for him even when your heart had been broken, and now all his words were making your heart beat like a wild horse, butterflies flying in your belly, and you couldn’t stop it even if you tried to be rational. “I always feel this connection with you and I just can’t stop it…”
“Ain’t like I can help it either…” Daryl muttered, a shy, small smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, that adorable smile, and again you had to stop yourself from kissing him, there were still things to discuss.
“Daryl…I have all these feelings for you, and I want to be with you, I want us to be together again, if you’re sure that you want it, only if you really are sure,” you began to explain, fidgeting and feeling vulnerable. “Not only because of Naia, but because I don’t think I can take to have my heart broken again, I don’t think I could get over it again.”
“Ain’t gonna hurt you again,” Daryl said quietly, still seeming shy, but he squeezed your hand and laced his fingers with yours. “I won’t, I promise. I never wanted to, I just…you know…and I’m sorry…”
“I know…okay.” You nodded, you trusted that Daryl wouldn’t hurt you on purpose, however, you weren’t sure he wouldn’t hurt you again without meaning to, but you wondered if maybe that was a risk you were willing to take. “But Daryl, I can’t have what we had before, not like that. We never…well, never were official, nobody knew, it was like we hid it from everyone, it didn’t feel like we had a real relationship, we were together but…I don’t know. And it’s okay if you didn’t want a relationship then, or people to know that we had something. But I can’t have that again, Daryl. I need something else, something more.”
“I get it.” Daryl nodded. “It ain’t like I wanted it to be a secret or something, just…” Daryl shrugged as if he didn’t find the words. “But it won’t be like that now. I know I ain’t good at relationships but I want it with you, I want to be with you, without hiding it or nothing.”
“Are you sure?” You asked and you couldn’t help that giddiness and butterflies again, even if you were nervous and insecure too.
“I am.” Daryl nodded. “I want it, and if you wanna…dunno…marry or something…I mean we got a kid and all, and if you want that…” Daryl mumbled bashfully, cheeks blushed. “We can do that if that’s what you wanna.”
The butterflies just went crazier, and you squeezed Daryl’s hand. “Is  not a bit late to marry me because you knocked me up?” You joked, giddy. “Because I think it’s a bit late, our kid is almost three.”
“Yeah, well…” Daryl chuckled even if he seemed shy.
“I don’t need that Daryl, we can talk about it, maybe, eventually, in the future, but not now. I just want us to be together, I want you and Naia, a family,” you told him softly, playing with his fingers.
“I want that too,” Daryl told you, again with that cute smile.
“Good, that’s….that’s good.” You smiled too. “We’ll take it slow, okay? I don’t want to rush things, I want this to work.” You needed it, and so did Naia, and probably Daryl too.
“Okay.”
“Okay.”
Daryl and you looked at each other in silence, holding hands, as if neither of you knew what to do or say, but both of you smiling shyly.
“You need to try to rest, alright?” Daryl told you softly, eventually, and you nodded. “Why you don’t try to eat something before sleeping?”
“Alright, I’ll try.”
Daryl nodded and lifted your joined hands to his lips, kissing your knuckles, and you felt giddy all over again, heart and butterflies crazy once again. Then he let go of your hand to go to the kitchen and bring you something to eat.
While he was away, you couldn’t help your insecurities, wondering if this was real and happening, or if it was a dream… and if it was real, if Daryl really wanted to have a relationship with you again… maybe you should have stopped it instead of saying that you wanted it? You didn’t want to suffer again, but…but your feelings were too strong to control them, and Daryl had said that he loved you, that he never stopped doing so, had even proposed to marry you if you wanted that…still, it might be just because he felt like it was his duty, but maybe…maybe it could be real, that Daryl had all those feelings for you.
You were again overthinking everything when Daryl walked into the room with a bowl of steamy stew, looking at you in a way….and with that adorable smile of him, and it made part of your insecurities slowly ebb away.
“Here.” Daryl sat down next to you, passing you the bowl, and he looked at you in silence while you ate the whole bowl, realizing as you ate how hungry you were after having eaten so little for two days. “Okay?”
“I think so.” You nodded, smiling. “I think I’m better.”
“Good.” Daryl reached out to gently push your hair away from your face, running his fingers through it, sending butterflies to your belly again. “Now rest.”
“Okay…goodnight, Daryl.” You bit your lip, everything that had happened between Daryl and you, your words, his words, the fact that he wanted to be with you, felt a bit surreal still, but you couldn’t stop smiling.
“Goodnight.” Daryl leaning closer and he kissed your forehead. He went to pull away, but you reached for him, pulling him closer and pecking his lips softly, you couldn’t stop yourself anymore, and your smile grew wider when you saw Daryl looking at you as if he were in awe before he smiled at you bashfully. “I shouldn’t do that in case I still have a bug or whatever and it jumps to you…”
“I don’t care,” Daryl said, looking at you in that way and with that cute smile, and he pecked your lips again. “Good night.” He reached out to brush his fingers through your hair and then he got up and walked out of the room, leaving you to rest, if your giddiness and your fluttering heart allowed you to do so.
*
So...they kissed. Again, believe it or not, I wrote this so long ago, that it was before all this coronavirus pandemic situation and all our social distancing things, in case these feels to you as if reader is not staying away enough from Daryl, this was before we even considered that. So yeah.
