Sebek fic prompt?? 😳 (+short drabble)
God knows I have so many wips and fic ideas on my to-do already but I saw pretty art of Sebek on twitter so of course I HAD to start thinking of fic ideas for him
This one is actually from a while ago but I like it:
Sebek x Yuu/Reader + Fake Dating Trope fic (featuring platonic besties!Malleyuu) where Sebek needs a date to a wedding/some kinda party and it was SUPPOSED to be a one-time thing until it turns out that Malleus and Yuu are besties. Because Malleus likes Yuu so much he VERY MUCH APPROVES Sebek going out with them so OF COURSE Sebek can't disappoint his beloved master by saying they're not actually together!!
(more under the cut because this got Long oops)
"The... The two of you... are acquainted?!" You raise a quizzical eyebrow at Sebek for his astonished outburst. "...Yeah. We met way back when we were planning renovations for Ramshackle Manor." You turn back towards your horned friend with a teasing but fond smirk. "I was listing out the damages for Crowley when I saw Tsunotarou wandering around." You hadn't thought it was possible, but Sebek's jaw drops further. Your hand pushing his jaw back in place with a click seems to snap him out of whatever silent stunned state he was in, instead being replaced by his usual boisterous demeanor. "Ts—Tsunotarou?!" Whatever complaint he was undoubtedly going to spout out is interrupted by the aforementioned fae. "I was not "wandering" like a lost child," Malleus says in a pouty tone, but his amused smile tells that he's far from upset. "Oh, you're right! You were trespassing," you snicker. "I was perusing the architecture. There is no harm in appreciating fine craftsmanship." "Pardon me for interrupting, my liege, but this human—" Sebek's eyes dart between you and Malleus as he stammers for words. "You know—They call you—?" "It's fine, Sebek," Malleus says with a dismissive wave of his hand and Sebek shuts his mouth. Huh, so he really can work miracles. "I permitted them to call me by that nickname. It's not a matter worth dwelling on. Instead, I am more interested in the topic of your connection with this dear friend of mine." Sebek stiffens up, looking like he's got one of Lilia's little "treats" stuck in his throat. Malleus looks between the two of you with intrigue glittering in his eyes and with how Sebek's always talking so highly of his boss, you'd thought that he'd be preening under the attention. When you turn towards him though, he looks even more asphyxiated. "Your dear friend," he chokes out with a slight questioning lilt after clearing his throat, as if he can't possibly fathom Malleus even seeing you when looking in your direction. "I am quite curious. You mentioned that they're your partner?" Malleus's eyes light up further when Sebek doesn't immediately disprove him and he continues speaking without waiting for a verbal answer. "That is unexpected, but not unwelcomed. Have the two of you known each other long? When did you begin courting each other?" It's your turn to be stunned, blinking cluelessly at the sudden onslaught of questions. "Um—" Sebek cuts in before you manage to blurt anything out. "WE—" He clears his throat and straightens up his spine and shoulders. He recovers his composed demeanor, his lips once again curling up into a confident smile. All of these are things you expect from him, but you're further surprised by him sidling up closer to you and holding your hand. "We became acquainted with each other about a year ago. We did not begin courting until recently." Sebek beams the widest, fakest smile you've ever seen at his boss and you're a little afraid it might actually rip his handsome face apart. Before you can ask him what the hell is going on, Sebek crushes your hand with his much, much bigger one and you have to choke back a yelp. "Isn't that right... Uh—d-dear?" He has to practically spit out the pet name. What the fuck?? "Riiiight. Totally. We're..." You cast one last glance at Sebek's strained, desperate smile and Tsunotarou's eager one to ensure that, despite how bizarre it seems, you haven't wildly misread the situation. "...Courting. Yep. We—I mean—Us. Me and Sebek. D—Dating. Romantically involved."
Yuu thinks this is Very Silly of course and wants to confront Tsunotarou and tell him the truth, but he's just so happy that Sebek is dedicating himself to things other than his guard duties and that his best friend is dating someone so loyal and devoted that Yuu can't bring themself to break the news to him.
So now Sebek and Yuu are involuntarily dating. Yuu (reasonably) thinks that they're just going to keep up the act only in front of Malleus (and also Lilia, Malleus's eyes and ears), but, because Sebek Zigvolt is not one to half-ass things, especially when it concerns his young master, he pulls out all the stops!! He plans dates, buys Yuu the best gifts, schedules times for them to spend together, everything!! This may be a fake relationship, but he'll be damned if he isn't the best fake boyfriend in his master's eyes!
Yuu is of course super surprised but touched by all this. Via all the dates and extra alone time they spend together, they end up finding out so much more about Sebek and end up actually... really liking him. They already liked him of course—they ARE friends after all—but after seeing all these other sides of him, they grow to like like him.
These feelings aren't actually as unrequited as they think, because Sebek also ends up really liking spending so much time with Yuu and being close to them all the time. He realises that he's grown to genuinely really care for them... and this is followed by a crisis where he agonizes over Catching Feelings for an "inferior being" and fearing that these feelings would get in the way of his duties to Malleus (they won't).
Anyways cue the mutual pining shenanigans and Sebek and Yuu running around each other because they don't think the other likes them back until their other friends shove the obvious in their faces that they're both lovestruck idiots and to Actually get together already.

vampy- mosquito man my beloved <3 if vampy is perfect for you, you crave a relationship where you can both be morons together and still adore each other. you want to date your best friend (as dumb as that sounds) and honestly that is very valid of you. you need a stable, adult relationship with no games or back and forth (bc that's trash trash trash) but you also need to be in a silly goofy mood with them sometimes (like singing hamilton at 3 in the morning.) you either prefer a dark color palette, or oranges and yellows. you like watching cocktail recipe tiktoks. i also think you like reading, or at least collecting books on your shelves even if you never get around to reading them. what more can i say? you're a real one :)
witchrry- ah yes, magic. this one is my personal favorite so if you got witchrry can we pls be besties? you probably love nature and the outdoors (or at least the idea of it bc bugs are icky). you probably like purples and greens and blues. i am 76% sure you have fake vines hanging in your room (or at the very least some plants whether they're real or fake). you probably had the very strong urge to go outside and walk through a creek when you were young- and maybe you still do today! you probably have a fascination with mythology as well. if witchrry is perfect for you, you love the enemies to lovers trope (hot) and you want a relationship where there's a bit of a power struggle. you're not willing to give up your opinions easily, and you will debate someone until the end of time. real hot girl shit! you probably have curtain bangs and own a lot of crystals, even if you only collect them because they're pretty.
anthrorry- if anthrorry (anthropology harry) is your favorite, you are honestly such a hot girl. you probably have several piercings and you have fairy lights in your room. you actually like reading and you probably have a really pretentious looking bookshelf (but you don't shove your book recs on other people so i'll allow it). you want a relationship where you and your partner are intellectually matched (so this is what it feels like to match wits with someone at your level). you want to be able to talk about weird random things and have your partner listen and respond enthusiastically. library and cafe dates your beloved <3 your color palette is earth tones and neutral colors. you have a dark academia aesthetic going on which i love for you! you also probably like weird/interesting jewelry.
demonrry- if demonrry is your favorite, you are actually so hot to me. you love the "he's an asshole but he's soft for me" trope. you prefer pastel and pale colors (or dark and scary colors, there's no in between) but either way your bedroom is very cute and well decorated. you want a relationship with someone who can be bold and dominant, but can also be very loving and soft when needed. basically, you want someone who will make you feel safe and loved, no matter how they appear to other people. you have an immaculate sense of style, and you really like candles and astrology. you are also very interested in history and antique things (and by antique things i mean your man). please bully demonrry for how old he is on the daily! he will get too confident otherwise.
alienrry- alienrry is my actual baby! if he is perfect for you, you are very kind and patient. you are the mom friend (sorry about the trauma!) and you're the one people rely on. you have an urge to keep the people you love safe. you really like doing your nails and they probably always look super cute! i'm guessing you also have a really big collection of polishes. you also have an extensive knowledge of movies and love talking about your favorites. also this is weird but i think you have a large collection of perfumes/body sprays and you always smell really nice. you crave a relationship with someone who is curious about the world and loves to learn new things. you want to be with someone who loves having discussions about random things at 2 in the morning. you also love astronomy and would spend hours looking at the stars and learning the constellations
here u go :)
AND BY ANTIQUE I MEAN YOUR MAN NOT YOU DRAGGING DEMONRRY THROUGH THE DIRT LIKE THATSGHSHSHFNEJFNENMDJEKDEKKD
