First time with Knives
Tumblr media
Summary: You let your demons win and decide to ask Knives if you can sit on his lap, curiosity takes over Knives and some smut ensues
Content: no established relationship, both are virgins, Knives is pretty nice here but will be his usual self in the second part (if I finish that...), reader is female, reader is an overthinker, pet name (Knives calling you good girl & slut, reader calling him master) Only finguring, Like 1.5k words long?
A/N: first time writing smut! I'm sorry if it's not too great <'3 also this is super self indulgent, I only made this for myself but since there's so little Knives smut in here...I must share
NSFW warning!
You've been wondering for a while, how does it feel to be on master Knives lap? To feel his heartbeat, to feel his warmth- or lack of- to have his strong arms around your delicate body. This question has bugged you for weeks, and it was starting to become more of a need than a want. The more time passed, the more you couldn't ignore it and today you finally decided to figure out what would be his reaction. 
"Knives?" You quietly muttered in a room with nothing but the empty piano that you're so used to seeing be played by the man that has captivated your heart. It felt odd being here without Knives around, almost as invading his privacy, but curiosity got the better of you as you made your way to the piano, your fingers gently brushing over the tips of the keys, too scared to actually play any notes to alert the master.
"Y/N?" But there it was, the familiar voice that always made your body jump. You quickly turn around and place your arms behind your back. "Knives! I'm sorry I didn't mean to touch it..." You tried to explain yourself but he only walked towards you, his expression was hard to read under his coat, you could only hope he wasn't angry at you. "Why were you here?" He asks in a softer tone, genuinely confused which makes you sigh in relief, thankfuly this won't be your last day on this planet. “Um..I was actually looking for you.” You admitted, lowering your face to avoid eye contact at all cost.
“Did something happen?”
“No- actually,” You start, taking a moment to collect yourself, finally meeting his eye. “Can we go to your room?” You manage to blur out, a little more enthusiastically than you wanted to. He’s taken it back a little by your honesty, he scratches the back of his head questioning if he should even let you in, and what could be so important that it needs to be talked about privately, but seeing you anxiously wait for an answer makes him give in, he turns around and waves for you to follow him. You smile as you excitedly walk alongside him.
You enter the room, and suddenly all of your anxieties come crashing on you as soon as you realize what you truly wanted. You gulped as your hands fidgeted with each other, how do you tell Knives- basically your master- you want to sit on his lap? And so much more than that??  Your thinking gets interrupted when he points to the bed for you to sit, your heart suddenly begins to beat louder and louder as you feel your chest build a twisted knot. Is now a good time? I shouldn't do it- but when else should I?? Wouldn't he kill me if I even mention this? You tried to speak but words wouldn't come out- “I want to sit on your lap!” ...okay well maybe you just needed your lust to take over your rationality.
His eyes widen as he stares at you, lost entirely for words. “W-what? Why?” He manages to say through the confusion, you cover your mouth as your cheeks heat up- oh my god you dumbass- “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to say it like that! I’m just…curious” You wish god would just strike you down with lightning already. He takes a moment to think and the room goes uncomfortably quiet, until he sighs and removes his coat, showing his muscular build, has his arms always been that big? And his hands…your mind trails off, losing focus on anything else besides his body. Knives sits on the bed, reaching out his hand to you “Come here.” Your heart feels like it could leap outside of your body, it was almost paralyzing but you still manage to sit on top of his lap, feeling as though you were seconds away from melting away.
Your eyesight gets slightly blurry as your brain- no, your body tries to process any of this. “Is that what you wanted?” He asks, not seeing any point in this, you could only nod in response, thanking god he can't see your immensely flustered face. He scoffs in response and places his arms around you. “You humans are so odd- what's the point of something so…” He says, suddenly stopping as he stares at your tiny body compared to his, your gentle hands becoming a nervous mess, your knees slightly rubbing against each other, your breathing, and your heartbeat so close, how your body felt against his…why did it bring his attention now? “Master?” You question, making him focus again. “You’re the most confusing human I've met, I could never figure you out.” He states, never removing his eyesight from your body. You can’t bring yourself to say anything besides an awkward laugh.
The room goes silent, all you can hear is your own heartbeat. It feels awkward- or are you the only one seeing this awkward? No it most definitely isn’t just you- You continue to overthink everything about this situation but a sudden touch in your leg makes you gasp quietly, looking down to see his big hand caress you, drawing circles in your leg. Oh god oh god…. Your breathing becomes sharper, your eyes somehow losing all focus yet still stare intently to his hand. Knives didn’t know why, but your small body being so near to his…it made him curious. He moves his hands on your upper thighs to see your reaction, another gasp comes out of you, interesting. He pushes on, moving to your inner thigh, every slight touch would make your body quiver in response and beg for more, your legs spread wider as your breathing was no longer trying to hide your lust as it turned more into quiet panting.
"Knives…" you murmured under your breath, turning your head to face him but you can't bring yourself to see his eyes. He tilts his head to try and see your expression, he wants to see your cute face as you melt under his touches, he wants to see what makes you excited and what doesn't, he wants to see you, but you look away before giving him that chance. He grunts silently, moving his hand closer and closer to your sensitive area but he stops entirely, making you almost look at him- but you can't, it's too embarrassing. His other hand touches your belly over your clothes, you bite back a moan as his long finger gently makes his way to your chest, and then your nipple that was showing through your shirt. He begins rubbing circles again, this time a moan comes out, you want him to just hurry up and put his dick inside you, but gosh this felt so fucking good, you couldn't complain. He stops, now putting his hand behind the shirt and touching your warm body, making your whole body tremble, every small touch felt like heaven to you. His other hand still hasn't gotten there yet, and your hips became desperate as you started thrusting a little, hoping something would make your aching body feel something, but there's nothing there. "What do you want me to do?" He whispers into your ear, almost taking a bite but he resists his urges, you gulped and tried to speak but nothing but quiet moans came out, you could barely focus at all and he didn't like your silence at all, so he began to finally touch your aching are, but only slightly over your panties, it could barely be called a touch. "Knives…" you moaned trying to get him to touch you, to fuck you, but he doesn't do it. You couldn't take it anymore "Please…" you beg, but he still doesn't do anything. "Say what you want." You hesitated, but you knew you had to swallow your pride and just say it. "Touch me more..fuck me already please.." You blurred out in between your desperate panting, he smirks to himself, placing a quick kiss on your neck "Good girl."
He finally begins rubbing your pussy, it's slow and nowhere near enough for you, but you still exhale in relief. For someone who's never had sex before, he sure knew how to use his fingers. He used two fingers to rub your area, the rest to touch the surroundings, after a bit, he lifts up his hand and shows you his thick, yet delicate fingers. "You're already this wet, huh? You've been thinking about this for a while haven't you?" He teases, you shake your head no but we all know better than that. He removes your soaked panties to the side, taking a moment to himself. Fuck that's hot, he thinks before he begins to rub your clit with one finger, you loudly moan at the cold surface hitting your warm inside, grabbing his arm to calm down your pleasure, it didn't work. "Wait-" you tried to say more but the sudden thick finger pushing in made your head jolt back with a loud moan, your eyes started to get watery and your body wouldn't stop shaking. "Do you like that? Or would you prefer…" He inserts another finger in, they both push in and out of your wet pussy, making lewd noises that covered the room, it was embarrassing to hear but it made you so desperate to hear more, especially from him. Your hips moved accordingly with his fingers entering you, making loud noises as the two clashed between each other, your mouth drooled as tears began to fall, his hands never stopping from touching their respective areas. "Faster.." You commanded but he didn't obey, he stopped touching your nipple and turned your head to finally see him "I'm the master here, not you." Suddenly his lips meet yours, if you weren't already feeling dizzy then that definitely changed now. You wanted both his hand and tongue deeper and deeper, you wanted him to touch your g-spot, to make you see the stars from so much lust, you wanted the man you loved to turn you into a complete mess.
The kiss was sloppy but you never moved away, even when you needed to catch your breath. He pushes you away for a moment when he realizes so, you gasped loudly as a string of saliva connects the two of you. You could hear his breathing now become less controlled, his pacing becomes faster, you grab his arm tighter and your mix of moaning and panting echoes through the room. You begin to cry at how overwhelming it all feels. "I'm going to cum-" you groaned as you could feel it build up from inside you, he kisses you again, this time using more of his tongue, never once wanting to leave you as his fingers fuck you harsher and faster, he let's out a small groan at the sight of your quivering body, such an adorable human now looks like a total slut. "Knives!" You screamed, your back arching back as you could feel the inside of you get full with your orgasm, you kept gasping for air and your body gave in, he never removed his hand till you came down from your high. He kisses your neck once more, his other hand that has been touching your chest moves to remove your tears. You rest your head on him and your panting turns into breathing again. "Fuck…" you whispered, he stops kissing your neck and finally removes his now slimy hand from inside you, he let's out a quiet moan in between your neck, did this really just happened? 
You turned your body around and placed your hands on his chest, your breathing now becoming normal but your eyes were full of pure lust. He didn't fully show it, but fuck he was hard, who wouldn't be after their first time with someone as cute as you "Please..I want you inside of me" You beg, legs still trembling but needing more, and how could he ever deny such a beauty of her wishes.

(Worst time to get nabbed by bounty hunters? Maybe when your alien partner's busy going through their seasonal thing.)
He closes his eyes, lets himself sink a little lower so he can make use of the pillows. Maybe Meryl has the right idea about a nap. His hand keeps ending up across his stomach and he should probably put the cigarette out because it’s a dumb idea to fall asleep with one lit. It doesn’t feel pressing though. It should, but it doesn’t. He’ll deal with it in a minute. Just wants a few more seconds of this before he has to move. Except it’s barely the afternoon and he’d got a solid eight hours the last night so why the hell is he nodding off like some toddler after a glass of warm milk? Nicholas sits up sharply and shakes his head, trying to shrug off the drowsiness, but it doesn’t fade. No – the room lists, and nausea churns, but the fog won’t clear.

Vash was dead. Wolfwood didn’t realise at first, because the body they found was still breathing. There, crumpled in the center of the crater, bloodied and singed, nothing but the desolate grey of sand soft rubble in all directions, yet his chest rose and fell and when Wolfwood pressed his hand to it he could feel the weak flutter of a heartbeat beneath his shaking palm.

Meryl had never seen a more beautiful man, even in her dreams.

read on ao3
Wolfwood wakes up from a nightmare to find Vash sleeping on his chest. That never happened before. For some reason, he can’t bring himself to push him away. Why would he, when it feels so comforting?
Or, they lost focus and developed a queerplatonic relationship
Rating: Teen
Relationships: Vash the Stampede/Nicholas D. Wolfwood
Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Sharing a Bed, Fluff, Non-Graphic Violence, Blood, Dreams and Nightmares, Asexual Character, Aromantic, Crying Vash the Stampede, Asexual Vash the Stampede, Trans Nicholas D. Wolfwood, Touch-Starved, Canon Compliant
Words: 7,3k
Chapters: 2/2, finished
Notes: any story has at least two sides to it. I took this sentiment quite literally, so chapter one is written from Wolfwood's POV, and second one is from Vash's.

Trigun Fanfic Appreciation Week: Day 7
come and see by avoidingavoidance
Mature, 366k, In Progress
This fic consumed my days and nights for over a week as I caught up to it. It was the only thing I thought about that entire time.
I wholeheartedly trust this fic to deliver. Deliver what I don’t know, I’m just along for the ride, but every time I found myself thinking “oh I really hope that gets revisited” or “oh I hope we get to see them address this point of conflict” or “oh I hope this character trait gets acknowledged here” it followed through. And then touched on notes I didn’t even know I wanted to hear.
The story that’s been crafted is heart-and-soul Trigun and delightfully original exactly where it needs to be. I’m pretty sure I’ll be thinking about this fic decades later. It’s part of my subconscious now, it’s dug its way in and won’t leave.
Summary:
After July, Wolfwood is left with nothing to his name but a piece of paper and a heavy cross to bear, so he returns to the only roots he ever had to try his hand at healing. It's a difficult process, but soon enough he'll discover that there's a damn good reason he can't let go.
A voice calls from the east. He just needs to hear it.
(A story about grief, healing, love, and one funny little housecat.)

Squid's Trigun Fanfic Recs
Hey, so I'm done with self promos so its time appreciate a bunch of you guys in line with @trigunfanfic appreciation week! A lot of this is gonna be straight up vashmeryl, heads up. Although we all know what I'm about, so I guess have fun! :3
Gonna start with one of my best friends and also my beta, @eomma-jpeg. You may know her from her millynai epic, In the Meadow. But right now she's working on a vashmeryl college au fic called What a Shame! By far one of my favorite writers! She also wrote a companion millywood oneshot for Sea Foam as well called Refuge from the Storm that I want to get printed for myself.
@scoundrels-in-love is another prolific writer I usually look forward to! Man, they sort of write a little bit of everything in regards to ship and canon. I mostly know them for mashwood, but my all time favorite fics of theirs is If this is communication, I disconnect. its everything I could ever want from a post max vashmeryl fic. Absolute gold!!
Okay, here's the thing. I am a slut for vashmeryl, but @ladymaliwan's writing is so good to convince me to branch out. Their stryfewood fics are to die for and imaginative and thank you for sharing so much of your snippets with me!!! They mean the world to meee ;3;
Next up is @eezybree's Bluebells. Man, ngl, Sav you give me a lot of writer's envy with this fic. AHHHH it's so fucking goooooood. I know I'm a chapter or two behind but man they get emotions across so well and that fluff is to die for. Comletely wonderful post max vashmeryl
Another one I am woefully behind on. But I remember way back last year when @faindri was still doing a lot of the concept art for EBS. I'm not usually one for aus but who can resist a space opera? And the amount of detail and worldbuilding in this fic is astonishing and actually super inspiring!
Okay I feel like @wandererriha's Get Help series is criminally underrated. Again, usually not a fan of aus, but this modern au is charming as all hell and I find myself coming back to it whenever I feel down.
Also shoutout to the folks who I have no idea have a tumblr account or not or just plain too scared to say hi too but also highly recommend Birds do it, bees do it, plants can do it by RambleFox, Condensed Trigun by SugarPill, Horticulture Blues by dweeblet, The End by ginger_mosaic, Reporter's Notes by @museqmeg, No Reason by @eilwen, this is our body (come out of the bath) by @spacebeyonce, and Arcaronar by JackelJamboree. All of these are on AO3! Also on ff.net, I recommend looking at Their Life by cmr2014. It's a super short post 98 vashmeryl oneshot that makes me super giggly when I read it! My FINAL rec is After the Fall by Girl.Interpreted, also on ff.net. If any of you have known me for a while, you'll know that this fic has some sentimental value to me personally. To start, its an unfinished post 98 vashmeryl fic with a healthy does of adventure and A LOT of trimax references. Way baaaack about a decade ago, I had just trimax for the first time after rediscovery of trigun, which was first introduced to me as a kid by my weird, weird dad. And man was I craving more trigun. So I went on ff.net for the first time ever at like one in the morning and this was the fic that got me into fanfcition just as concept and a hobby. I wouldn't be writing fic until early college, but man this story STUCK with me in ways I couldn't begin to imagine. But the writing and the story and just everything... AHHHHHHHH Anyways go read After the Fall!!!! I doubt it will ever be finished, but I can dream But literally, GO READ ALL OF THESE FICS! GO ENJOY THEM!!!!!!! IM BEGGING YOU!!! Happy Trigun Fanfic Appreciation Week!!!!

A Guide to eezybree's Trigun Fanfiction
Hi all! For @trigunfanfic appreciation week, I would like to do a little self-promo. I've only been writing fanfic for about a year (if you don't count my POTC fic from middle school) but it has changed my life and I'm really proud of what I've done so far. If you'd like to read some of my stuff, here's a quick guide!
Bluebells | E | Vashmeryl | 43k, in progress | post-canon Trimax, canon-compliant | Hurt/Comfort, Emotionally-driven, Character-driven. My long fic about Vash and Meryl figuring out life after Trimax. It's mostly Meryl POV, with an emphasis on her PTSD and trauma, but Vash is even more messed up. He's lost and grieving both Wolfwood and his brother, and Meryl's hangups about his nature as a plant certainly don't help their feelings of loneliness even as they're living together. It doesn't help that the ghost of Wolfwood won't leave the damn room. They work it out together while still acknowledging the things that haunt them - Vash's grief and Meryl's fear - and put on a brave face for the TV special on his life. This fic has converted a few people to see Vashmeryl, has made people laugh and cry, and has inspired a little bit of art. This fic is my baby, and I'm so so damn proud of it. ALSO: The smut is skippable!
Funeral Rites | T | Vashwood | 3k | Trimax canon-compliant Vol. 10 Burial fic. My first fic and still beloved. Vash buries Wolfwood and gets weird about it, would you expect any less? This baby is so chock-full of love and grief.
Freaks of Nurture | M | Gen/Vashwood | 2.8k | any canon. Vash gets vivisected and he hallucinates that the surgeon is Knives. Wolfwood gets triggered to hell trying to save him. This is my best and weirdest prose, and I had the most fun writing this. Dead doves abound here.
Silent Night | T | Gen | 4k | Pre-canon sci-fi epistolary-style story of Rem on the SEEDS expedition, leading up to the birth of the twins. My heaviest sci-fi with Rem's grief over her late partner Alex and regret over Tesla running throughout. I adore this fic. It was also inspired by Lenipez's Becoming Eden series, and in turn inspired another Rem-centric fic by mydetheturk!
Fresh Cut | E | Millionsummers | 5.7k | DEADEST DOVE. DESSICATED. My uhhh... body horror smut and essay on what compels me about the messed-up relationship between Legato and Knives. I wrote most of this on a plane (in public). This one is very kinky and weird and somehow hot, if you're into getting visions of your lover cannibalizing you when he comes.
Cigarettes & Saints | E | Mashwood | 3.8K | post-canon Trimax, set somewhere within/after Bluebells. Vash and Meryl visit a grave outside Hopeland and they... get weird with it. One of the tags is Outdoor Sex, and it does a lot of the heavy lifting. Wolfwood's ghost pays them a visit in Vash's butt. This sounds incredibly silly but it's very sweet and sad and there isn't a single dry eye by the end of the fic.
Growing Black Irises | T | Stryfewood | 1k | set somewhere in Bluebells again. Here's how post-canon trimax stryfewood can still win, but oh no it's painful and somehow sweet. So much yearning and regret over things never said or done.
Lightning Rod | M | Elendira POV | 1K | Trigun Stampede | Body Horror week fic; there's a dead dove in here. Inspired by Beelzebby666's Elendira/Tesla, I wanted to explore Elendira's thoughts and feelings about growing up and being experimented on, lauded as Knives' new Tesla. Compels me.
Learn to count on you (as my own fingers) | G | Vashmeryl | 800 words | Any canon. Meryl helps Vash clean his prosthetic, and it's very sweet.
Meet in the Middle (Like Pistols at Dawn) | G | Vashmeryl | 672 words | Domestic Fluff and Sillies. For the indirect kiss prompt for Vashmeryl week. I just really love writing them be goofy and sweet.
Ship to Wreck | T | Stryfewood | 1.6k | Pirate AU! Two small scenes of my pirate AU that is actually a bit more elaborate than the fic lets on. It's a fun time.
Raising Hell | T | Trigun OCs | 1.7k | If you ever had more questions about my silly trigun OC Fanny Paine, well, here's half her backstory. This was fun to write and got me out of a funk! I may write more again. I love Fanny.

my contribution to trigun fanfic appreciation week
been going back and forth over whether to share some of my faves from last summer but yk what you only live once.
a tide of tender mercies by gloriousporpoise (vashwood, 23K, E) -- the ultimate post-canon tristamp fix-it, genuinely such a lovely self-contained story arc. if you're up for the emotional investment and a slightly longer fic this one is so worth it.
good lord, i feel like i'm dyin' by elemmacil (vashwood, M, 1K) -- I don't read AUs like at all but this is my exception. super short modern rock band AU that just hits all the right notes.
everything by goldenglitz, who writes some of my favorite t4t vashwood and just nails the trimax dynamic. a lot of vashwood tends to kind of smooth down their rough edges and these fics really embrace it instead.
... and I think that's how much I want to out myself on favorite fics for today. go check some of these out!
