Speak to Me Softly
Shuri x POC reader
Summary: You avoid Shuri after an argument you had. A week after, you attend a street fighting tournament--something you promised her you wouldn't do again. When you come back home, you find Shuri waiting for you.
or
Shuri intends to confront you until you break down crying.
Word count: 1045
Tumblr media
It’s late—way too late. You hope Shuri’s asleep, though you know her well enough to sense she isn’t.
Your hand hovers over the door handle as you think of what you’ll tell her if she asks…when she asks. You can lie. You can tell her that the bruises on your face came from a mugging, and the bruises on your knuckles came from fending them off.
No, that won’t work. And even if it did, you aren’t particularly fond of the Black Panther roaming your hometown stalking citizens she suspects as your fictional muggers.
The point is, you can’t tell her about the tournament; not when you promised her you would stop. But god, you were itching to go back into the ring, especially after the argument you had with Shuri a week ago.
The fight between you two ended up causing a lot more damage than expected. The things you told each other replay vividly in your head. The only thing you found distracting was the local boxing gym you went to only a few blocks away. One thing led to another and a buddy of yours convinced you to attend a match in an underground tournament. You were at your worst at this point. Shuri wasn't talking to you either. Perhaps part of you did this out of spite. 
Now here you are holding your breath as you slowly open the door to your apartment. It’s dark inside. Quiet.
Maybe she is asleep.
Before you turn on the flashlight on your phone, the lamp switches on with Shuri seated on the couch next to it. Shit.
You keep your hood on and stuff your hands in the pockets of your hoodie, ensuring she doesn't see the brutal marks on your body that weren’t there when she last saw you.
Flicking your eyes to the ceiling, your shoulders sway to the kitchen.
“Sit.”
You purse your lips, eyeing the fridge. Orange juice sounds a lot better than another argument. “I’m thirsty,” you murmur.
“I’m sure you are.” She tilts her head to the couch. “Put your bag down and sit.”
With a clenched jaw, you prevent your girlfriend from repeating herself for the third time. You remove the duffel bag from your body, drop it where you stood, and join her on the couch while keeping the distance between the two of you. Your forearms sit on your thighs as you lean forward, training your eyes on the black television screen ahead of you.
“Look at me,” she demands. Not even a ‘where were you?’
Your head doesn’t turn. You sit there with bated breath, unsure what to do. Your fingers fidget with each other beneath your pocket. You wish you hadn’t come back.
You hear Shuri inhale deeply before she shifts closer to you. She lays a hand on your knee, gently but firmly pressing your leg down to cease its bouncing.
“Baby.” Her voice is soft this time. So soft. “Can you let me see your face? Please?”
Your vision starts to blur. You don’t know why.
Shuri pulls down your hoodie while using her other hand to rotate your face toward her.
“You went back,” she states instead of questions.
You continue to avoid her eyes. You don’t need to see them to know they’re hued with disappointment.
“You told me you wouldn’t.”
A tear rolls down your cheek. You were thinking of all these excuses—all the things you could say to prevent this conversation from happening, and yet not a lick of it could escape your tongue.
She whispers your name. “Look at me, please.”
You don’t want to. Your lips can’t help but pout as you stubbornly keep yourself from crying. You just beat the shit out of your opponent two hours ago, and now you were close to breaking down in front of your girlfriend.
Nonetheless, you reluctantly bring your tired eyes to hers. There’s nothing but undeserved love in her dark brown eyes.
Fuck. Here come the waterworks.
“I’m sorry,” you whisper. “I know that I- that I promised you I wouldn’t,” you’re all sniffles at this point, “and that it’s not good for me, and I—”
Shuri caresses your cheek. “Breathe, my love.”
“I was just…” Breathe.
Your girlfriend nods, encouraging you to continue.
“I was just frustrated because of the…” you try to slow down. “Because of the fight we had.”
Shuri hums in response, wiping some of the wetness from your face.
“And I know it’s not an excuse. It’s- it’s not. But when we weren’t talking…I just,” your lips quiver, “I didn’t know what to do.”
Shuri leans her forehead against yours.
“I didn’t know what to do,” you murmur, mostly to yourself this time. “I’m sorry.”
Shuri removes your hands from your pockets. Leaning away, she inspects the swelling. She kisses your right knuckle.
“We’re gonna have to discuss this.”
You look down at your lap. Your pants are soaked in salty tears.
Shuri lifts your chin up. “But we’ll hold off for now. Okay?”
Your shoulders drop and all you do is nod childishly, exhaling.
Shuri’s eyes are glossy. She hates seeing you like this. That’s why she made you promise to stop street fighting in the first place.
“Let’s get you cleaned up.”
Shuri lets you sit in the bathtub as she helps bathe you. Every few minutes she’ll kiss your cheek, your temple, or your lips to assure you she isn’t mad.
She’s frustrated, obviously. However, seeing you break was enough for her to pause. Until she realized how anxious you were, she intended on confronting you and talking about the argument from the other night.
And it wasn’t solely tonight. You avoided her all week before today, too ashamed to face her after the things you said during your fight—too sad to face her after the things she told you.
Shuri wrings out the washcloth, observing you as you sit in thought. Your face always tattles on your feelings; a blessing and a curse.
“Did you win?” She asks, pulling you out of your head.
You look at her, eyebrows raised. “Hm?”
She smiles, pecking your lips. “Did you win, my love?”
You huff out a chuckle.
“Yeah.” You rub your nose against hers. “I won.”

One of the(many) things that bugs me about this fandom when it comes to Nettles is how even mentioning her relationship with Daemon is considered “reducing” her role to just being that of his "love interest.” This idea is ridiculous to me because it’s promoting the same thing that they accuse Nettles x Daemon shippers of(aka stripping down her characterization).
Yes, Nettles is her own independent character with her own story that ends and begins outside of Daemon, but he is a part of her story.
Her relationship with him is just as important as being an orphan bastard (non-Valyrian) girl from Driftmark, the only dragonrider of Sheepstealer(and probably the last dragonrider for 200 years), or a fire witch to the Burned Men. All those aspects make Nettles Nettles. She is more than one thing and romantic love doesn’t detract from it. It only adds another layer to her characterization.

shuriri college au!
note: im not a stem major so it might be vauge
shuri gets a crush on a girl in one of her labs (riri) and is basically trying to try her damndest to get a chance to talk
problem is riri is booked and busy nd doesn't really get that shuri (or other people tbh) are interested in hanging out so she always ends up dipping to go work on her projects
and like shuri is breaking out her super genius intellect just to get coffee with her but somehow, someway riri finds a way out of directly interacting with her
shuri gets extra tickets to movie she finds out riri's a fan of? riri has already had the tickets purchased for weeks OR she's already found a way to pirate it
shuri tries to get paired up with riri for an assigment? turns out riri has accommodations so she works individually rather then in group projects
shuri's friends think this is funny cause SHURI HERSELF is notorious for dissapearing off the face of the earth to work in the lab so whenever she complains about riri ditching her/ ignoring her they hit her with the "ohhhh???rlly???that must suck???"
at one point shuri even signs up for tutoring. but that only confused riri cause "did u lose a bet or something?why do u need tutoring u have higher grades then me???"
eventually, shuri gets to the point where shes like. fuck it. and just starts hanging out with riri without the elabroate plots + super special planned dates.
beforehand shuri was stuck trying to find ways to stand out and impress riri, but the thing is riri was ALREADY impressed with shuri.
riri just thought shuri was just being nice to her bc she's (mostly...) nice to everyone/ so she didn't want to assume anything
riri's working late hours? shuri brings her coffee, works alongside her. doesn't make a fuss of it. they start walking her back to the dorms after those late nights. in class she starts asking riri questions more, complimenting her, but again, no more schemes.
after awhile, they just kinda...click? like riri doesn't even notice how often she's starting to look forward to seeing shuri. and even starts to believe that maybe shuri is being nice to her because???she enjoys????riri's company????
soon enough riri starts to seek shuri out. excitedly calling shuri whenever she has a new idea, offering to pay for coffee the next time they're working late, staking out the financial aid office, even responding to shuri's texts in a (somewhat) reasonable time frame
when it does click for riri that she might be forming a crush (her attraction is so sporadic that she rarely pays attention to it anymore) she does panic. a bit
not because she hates the idea of dating shuri, but because she doesn't have much experience dating anyone. what if shes misreading the situation and shuri only wants to be friends? what if riri doesn't even know what she wants and just likes the attention???what if she ruins everything because of her inexperience? what if she icks shuri out and never sees her again???
yeah that wasn't a good week for her
[cut to shuri doodling their names in the margins of her notes]
anyways. when riri panics she reverts to bad habits and starts ghosting hard. self sabotage arc :)
at first shuri lets it go cause again she'd be a hypocrite otherwise. but after a certainpoint it really started to hurt her feelings cause damn she knows they aren't dating, but at the very least thought they were friendly? she gets mad, gets moody, but after awhile she gets REALLY concerned cause while riri is flighty she never does it maliciously
so for one last time, shuri does indeed cook up a scheme. said scheme is sneaking into riri's dorm and just asking her straight up if she's okay (she brings food just in case riri is actually mad at her)
and like....riri's so used to keeping her emotions and worries to herself that she isnt used to just...being asked.
so the moment she's hit with the "are u ok" girl just breaks down and spills
(riri does accidentally admit to her crush during this breakdown, but shes also revealing other stuff about herself so shuri decides not to focus on that and to just help her cry it out)
(shuri feeling some conflicted feelings cause on one hand her crush has mutual feelings on the other hand her favorite person is feeling shitty)
[insert cry sleepover sesh]
about a week or so later things have reutrned to...normal....mostly.
thing is now that riri is getting used to her attraction and wanting shuri and wanting a life outside of her lab she gets...bold.
starts slowly returning shuri's playful flirting... being more open with shuri about how she feels
shuri is not used to bold. shuri, princess of wakanda, top of her class, isn't used to being flustered or pursued so seriously, shuri's bbrain turns to mush and will never return.
shuri's friends also think this is funny
ok thats it maybe ill write more ideas later but i got an essay to submit for my final among other tings

I don't have Shuri's or Namor's action figures or funkopops with me. But if I had, I would be pushing them together and saying 'Now kiss' at least once everyday just for satisfying my Nashuri heart.

Riri: What would be the perfect date?
Shuri: Oh that's a hard question
Riri: Just tell me your ideal one
Shuri: I'd say the 25th of April cause it's not too warm or too cold, all you need is a light jacket
Riri: ...

Harping back to the multiverse Nashuri post I made earlier, one of my headcanon universe concepts follows this type of revenge movie plot above:
The protagonist is forced into isolating circumstances because of a third party/antagonist, where they then go on a calculated killing spree in hopes of reuniting with their love/home/etc. [whom they question is still alive or not]. They are willing to do any and everything to find them and although things look bleak along their arduous path, the memory of what’s dear to their heart fans the flame to their relentless and vengeful existence.
Tumblr media
I can see both Namor and Shuri being in this predicament in pursuit of the other, but I’m leaning towards Namor to carry out the job. I just know he wouldn’t hold back. Nothing else would matter anymore. Revenge would be all consuming. Bonus if he confided in Attuma and Namora, and they were willing to help risk their lives on his quest to find and retrieve the Princess. His Shuri.

What would each of Hexsquad do in Wakanda?
Luz: Talk with Queen Shuri about Boiling Isles, and maybe tyranny of Belos, compared to European colonizers.
Amity: Offering them Abomaton knowledge, and maybe combining it with sciences of Vibranium.
Gus: Learning from Shaman and maybe some art of illusion combined with hologram. Maybe learning way of Wakandan life as well.
Willow: Regrowing heart-shaped herbs, and studying about baobab, and different exotic plants of Wakanda. Maybe some martial art from Dora Milaje as well.
Hunter: Exchange his story to M'Baku, before he told Hunter about legend of Chaka Zulu, Previous Black Panthers, and different African heroes.
Vee: Helping locals, and maybe disguise as locals for counter-infiltration from threatening of terrorism, human trafficking, black market, and so-on.

Black Panther's the only Marvel's movies compelling enough to drag me to theaters (the last Spider Man too, but because of Tobey Maguire nostalgia). Not for a minute I'd doubt about the quality of this sequence, as they've Ryan Coogler as their director and writer. They delivered much more that I've could expected (and the expectations were high since the first trailer). The decolonization discourse is there, sharp as ever for a Hollywood blockbuster. And the strenght of the cast!!! The main actor is dead and the secondaries made a sequence (!) almost as excelent as the first movie. Black Panther franchise has by far the greatest cast from MCU, for sure! Letitia Wright is marvelous and if I'd liked Shuri before, now I'm in love with her completly! And Tenoch Huerta and his Namor joined Michael B. Jordan's Killmonger as the best MCU's antiheroe.
(But I couldn't see all that sexual tension between him and Shuri that Tumblr's been shoved into my face. They've, yes, a huge potential!)
