Listening to Once Upon A Witchlight so here’s some rough sketches
Can I request Sebek with an S/O who is very soft spoken? Like, she has trouble being heard and even her "loud" voice would be considered quiet by most people?
How would Sebek act if his partner's voice was very soft, and it was very difficult to be heard?
Sorry for making this so extense, everyone with two eyes can see that Sebek is my fav and I wanted to give him the one shot he deserved, I love him very much, enjoy it <3
Ever since he'd met you, Sebek had had difficulty listening to you.
Not because he didn't want to, but because your voice was so low that the surrounding noise often drowned out your words. At first, this frustrated him. How could anyone communicate if they spoke so slowly and quietly! It wasn't that he doubted your abilities, but in his opinion, words should be spoken firmly to demonstrate presence.
However, over time, his view began to change. He discovered that your soft voice held a special charm.
Every word you spoke, even if soft, was full of meaning. You didn't say much, but when you did, your words were sincere and profound. He learned to read you in other ways: in the way you tilted your head when you were thoughtful, in the way your eyes sparkled when you were excited, or in the way your lips trembled when you wanted to say something but were afraid to interrupt.
Sebek, who used to interrupt and raise his voice without realizing it, began to pause. He began to wait, to listen to you attentively. When you were together, he lowered his voice a little, though he didn't realize it. He leaned slightly toward you to catch every word you said, and if someone interrupted, his withering glare was enough to silence them and let you speak.
For example, one day, the classroom buzzed with the sound of conversations, laughter, and the occasional argument about the week's homework.
In the midst of it all, you tried to ask the person sitting next to you a question, but as always, your voice was lost in the noise.
"Could you repeat that?" Deuce said, frowning as he tried to hear you.
You took a breath and tried to raise your voice, but before you could…
"MY BELOVED WAS SPEAKING! SHOW SOME RESPECT!"
The boom of Sebek's voice reverberated off the walls like thunder, causing everyone to instantly fall silent. Even Crewel paused for a moment to see what was happening.
Your cheeks burned as you felt the entire class's attention on you.
"Sebek…" you whispered, wishing the ground would swallow you up.
"Speak up! Now everyone will listen to you properly!" he exclaimed proudly, crossing his arms.
Some students rolled their eyes and returned to their conversations, but others still looked at you curiously, as if waiting for you to say something worthy of such a huge interruption.
"It wasn't that important…" you muttered, lowering your gaze.
Sebek snorted.
"Everything you say is important! If others don't listen to you, then they're the ones at fault!"
You didn't know how to respond to that, but the class continued without further interruptions. Still, for the rest of the day, whenever you tried to speak and someone wasn't listening, Sebek would jump in without hesitation.
In the cafeteria. In the hallway. Even in the library (where he was almost thrown out for his scandal).
Finally, as you walked back to Ramshackle together, you decided to speak.
"Sebek…" you whispered, gently tugging at his sleeve.
He stopped in his tracks and looked at you with full attention, as if whatever you were about to say was a direct order from Lord Malleus himself.
"You don't have to shout every time I want to say something…" you said, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Of course I do!" he retorted, determination shining in his eyes. "If the others won't listen to you, then it's my duty to make sure they do!"
You sighed.
"But… I don't like everyone looking at me when you do it."
Sebek opened his mouth to argue, but closed it immediately.
He looked at you with a frown, as if processing your words. For a moment, you couldn't tell if he was outraged or confused.
"So…" he began, less confidently than usual. "Would you rather I did nothing?"
You shook your head.
"It's not that. Just… you listening to me is enough."
The silence stretched between you.
Sebek looked at you seriously, his green eyes shining with something different than their usual overflowing passion. Then, as if understanding something important, he nodded solemnly.
"If that's what you wish… then I will do it."
And he did.
From that day on, whenever you were in a group and your voice was lost among the others, Sebek didn't interrupt with a deafening shout.
Instead, he leaned his head toward you, making sure his ears caught every word.
When he noticed you wanted to speak, he gave you the space to do so, waiting patiently for you to express yourself at your own pace.
Even in moments of silence, if he noticed you wanted to say something but didn't dare, he'd simply whisper, "I'm listening."
And with that, you knew you didn't need to shout. That for him, your voice was enough.
One day, as you walked through the school hallways together, you stopped to say something, but at that moment, a group of students walked by, talking loudly, completely drowning out your words. Despite this, Sebek knew you'd tried to speak.
"Wait a minute!" he exclaimed. He turned to you with his characteristic energy. "You said something, I know! Say it again!"
You smiled a little, a faint blush rising to your cheeks.
"Today… today the weather is beautiful."
Sebek blinked, processing the simplicity of the sentence. Then, with his serious but bright-eyed expression, he nodded firmly.
"That's right! The weather is nice, but you have to be prepared for any sudden changes!"
The way Sebek took your every word seriously, no matter how simple, made you feel seen. Heard.
And that made you the happiest girlfriend in the world.
Yeah that's going to the archive B-p
Don't tell anyone I'm on a quest to find all the old things I didn't post because of anxiety, so if I spam it's normal ^^

Can I request the Twst first years with an S/O who is kinda shy, quiet, doesn't really talk much... but she is obsessed with meat?
Like, smells a barbecue a mile away and is there waiting with a plate before they can ask "who wants what?". Do not let her try a bite of your steak she will eat the whole thing (she'll pay you back obviously, she's just bad at stopping cause meat is so yummy). If any kind of meat is involved in the conversation that earlier shyness is gone and she's talking a mile a minute. Stuff like that?
Where you are a shy and quiet girl until a piece of meat appears… and you become completely crazy and passionate. How would our first-year boys react?
Deuce Spade
Deuce always thought you were a super sweet and quiet person. He appreciated how quiet you were, because around him, he felt he could relax without the need to talk too much.
But everything changed the day you went out to lunch together.
He ordered a regular plate, but you… you ordered the largest portion of meat they had in the cafeteria.
As soon as it was served, you grabbed your cutlery with fierce and began devouring it like it was your last meal.
Deuce's eyes widened, his fork halfway to his mouth.
"W-Wait… you always eat like this?"
He couldn't help but stare at you in shock.
The way you had transformed from a quiet girl into a meat-eating machine was simply breathtaking.
From that moment on, he began making sure you had the best meat at every meal.
If he saw another plate had a bigger piece, he'd discreetly switch plates without you noticing.
"Ah… this one had more meat, so you have it."
Although he still can't get over the shock of seeing your transformation every time you eat, he secretly finds it adorable.
Ace Trappola
The first time he saw you eat meat was… an eye-opening experience.
You were in the cafeteria. Up until that moment, Ace saw you as the quiet girl in the group, the one who always listened more than she spoke.
But then, the chef brought a huge steak to the table. And the moment you saw it…
Your eyes shone with the intensity of a thousand suns.
Without hesitation, you grabbed your cutlery with impressive speed and began cutting the meat with the precision of a surgeon.
In a matter of seconds, you had devoured the first bite.
Ace blinked. Then he looked at you. Then he looked at the meat.
"Wait… WHAT HAPPENED TO MY SHY AND CUTE GIRLFRIEND?"
It didn't take him a second to start laughing.
"IT'S LIKE YOU ACTIVATED A SECRET MODE MAN"
From that moment on, Ace turned your love of meat into his personal entertainment.
"What if I put a steak in front of you and then move it away? Would you attack me, darling?"
He annoys you only because he finds it hilarious to see you transform as soon as meat enters the scene.
But deep down, he also makes sure you get the best bites.
Of course he'd never admit it.
"Hey, I just happened to order two pieces of steak, but I'm not that hungry… Do you want 'em ?"
(That's his way of saying he likes seeing you happy.)
Epel Felmier
At first, he thought you were shy and elegant, the kind of person Vil always praises for her grace and refinement.
But when he saw how you devoured a steak without hesitation, he almost spit out his apple juice.
"Damn...! Do you always eat like this?"
After the initial shock, he found it incredibly cool that you weren't afraid to enjoy food. As someone who grew up in a village where home-cooked food is key, he decided he had to impress you.
"In Harveston, we know how to cook meat like the gods. Let me show you how it's done."
Since then, whenever he gets the chance, he cooks you dishes using traditional recipes from his village. If you try his food and enjoy it, he'll try to act like he doesn't mind too much, but his face will turn red with pride.
"Heh, sure, it's only natural that I turn out well… but if you want more, just lemme know, and I'll make more tomorrow."
If you don't eat with such enthusiasm one day, he'll worry. "Hey, are you okay? If you're not hungry, something's wrong."
Sharing food is important to him, so seeing you happy with what he's cooking makes him feel special.
Jack Howl
When Jack discovered your love for meat, his first thought was, "She has good eating habits."
As someone who watches his diet very carefully for training, he appreciates that you also eat enough protein.
As soon as you took a bite, all your shyness disappeared.
Your eyes lit up, your posture changed, and you began to talk passionately about how delicious the meat was.
"This is amazing! The texture, the flavor, everything is perfect!"
Jack simply fell silent, surprised to see you suddenly talking so much.
"…So this is the real you, huh?"
Far from being bothered, he finds it extremely cool. He likes seeing how happy you get when you eat meat, so from that moment on, he started buying you beef jerky as a little gift.
Without hesitation, he gets up in the cafeteria and orders more for you.
When he returned with the extra plate and placed it in front of you, he simply said,
"Eat. There's no reason to be hungry."
Plus, if you ever train together, he'll tell you he'll buy you some meat as a reward. He really does.
"You ran well today. Let's get some meat as a reward."
Sebek Zigvolt
Sebek already considered you a noble and dignified person because of your reserved and respectful attitude.
But the day he saw your love for meat…
"EXCELLENT!"
Instead of being surprised or scared, he was moved. To him, your love for meat is a sign of strength!
"THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE! A TRUE WARRIOR EATS WITHOUT FEAR!"
Every time you go out to eat, he'll order the largest portion available.
And if you try to say it's not necessary, he'll slam the table firmly.
"DON'T HOLD BACK! A STRONG PERSON NEEDS TO EAT WELL!"
From then on, every time you eat together, he'll make sure you get a decent portion.
"Waiter! Another plate for my beloved! It's undignified to leave her hungry!"
(Sebek, you don't have to yell at the poor waiter 😭.)
The first time you tasted the meat he cooked for you, you almost cried with joy. Sebek took it as a sign that it was the best meat in the world.
"I KNEW IT! BRIAR VALLEY FOOD IS SUPERIOR!"
Now he's convinced that your love of meat is a virtue worthy of respect.
"I'M PROUD TO HAVE A GIRLFRIEND LIKE YOU!"
I'm just gonna drop this here real quick, and then run back in shame
