albedo x fem traveler (she/her)
prompt : "May I sketch you?"
── 🌿
Dragonspire sure was interesting, to say the least. It was abnormally cold, odd blue and white plants were growing everywhere, and strange ice that doesn't melt when exposed to fire was in every direction you looked. Not to mention, the Hilichurls, Mitachurls, and Samachurls had practically adapted to the cold and a lot more Cryo Hilichurls were everywhere. Y/N had just finished helping Albedo with his experiment and was saying a few things to Paimon before they used a waypoint to teleport back to Monstadt.
"Excuse me, do you mind if you could stay a little longer?" The dirty blonde spoke up, immediately drawing the attention of the traveler and her pixie companion.
"No, I don't mind. It's warm here, so I'm not particularly in any rush to leave. What do you need?" Y/N turned to face Albedo, walking in his direction.
"Do you mind if I sketch you?" Albedo pulled out a sketch pad and a pencil as he spoke.
"No, not at all." She smiled in response.
"I don't need you in any particular pose, so you can lean against the desk if you want," he said, pointing to his cluttered desk that was off to the side of the small cave.
Y/N walked over to it and leaned against the table, half sitting on the edge of it. She let her arms rest beside her as she looked back up at Albedo, who looked to be lost in thought.
"Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I'd like to sketch you nude, if that's alright," he added bluntly as he put his pencil behind his ear.
"Nude?! Why!?" Y/N crossed her arms across her chest in a protective manner, her face turning scarlet.
"I'd like to draw the human body in it's most basic form, and I haven't been around any other women as of late. On a side note, I don't think Sucrose would be too comfortable with the mere thought of it," he rambled.
The blonde traveler bit her lip nervously, looking around for Paimon. Alas, the pixie had disappeared like normal, most likely not wanting to be a part of whatever's happening. To be completely honest, Y/N didn't blame her.
"Um, I guess it's okay... you're just sketching me, right...?" Y/N sounded very cautious and, quite frankly, scared.
"What else is there to do?" Albedo asked innocently. Was he serious?
"Ah... Nevermind..." Y/N trailed off.
A short silence surrounded them for a moment. Noticing the blonde's discomfort, Albedo broke the silence.
"If you're not comfortable undressing in front of another person, I can turn around until your done." He slightly turned away from her, giving her a blank stare.
"Wouldn't that be pointless? You're going to see me naked anyway..." Y/N rubbed the back of her neck.
"Well, the last thing I want is for you to be uncomfortable, so I personally don't care," Albedo turned around fully, crossing his arms over his chest as he waited. "If you decide that you truly aren't comfortable stepping outside of your boundaries, you may feel free to back out at any time."
The girl nodded, even though the dirty blonde couldn't see. Y/N pulled off her shoes and set them on the ground next to her. She wiggled her toes around on the cool, earthy floor and smiled to herself. Reluctantly, she pulled her dress over her head and set it down in an empty space on the table. She slowly slipped off her bloomers and undergarments, leaving her completely exposed to the nippy air. She set the rest of her clothes down next to her dress and pulled off her gloves, doing the same. The traveler placed her hands over her breasts and very gently squeezed them, feeling her soft skin beneath her hands. She leaned against the table again and hesitantly removed her hands from her breasts, letting them fall beside her.
"Okay, I'm done..." Y/N spoke, nervousness obvious in her tone.
Albedo turned back around, immediately looking the the blonde up and down. His expression shifted, but it was hardly noticable. He pulled his pencil out from behind his ear and lifted up his sketchpad.
"I'm going to begin sketching you now. Please try not to move, and make sure to tell me if you would like to opt out." His pencil made contact with the paper, creating some very calming sounds.
Y/N's face was still as red as a Jueyun Chili Peper, but her posture slowly began to relax as the minutes ticked by. Her breathing began to slow along with her heartrate, allowing her to start calming down. Now that it was actually happening, it wasn't as bad as she thought. Albedo barely even looked at her, he'd glance at her for a moment or two before going back to sketching for five minutes. He rarely even used his eraser, which amazed Y/N. Every so often, the two would make eye contact for a few moments, which caused Y/N to become flustered again and look away. Albedo didn't understand it too much, but he brushed it off as a human thing.
"Alright, it's done. I'll show you after you get dressed," he spoke up after about 40-50 minutes of silence, turning around.
Y/N eagerly grabbed her clothes and slipped everything back on one by one. Once she had made sure that everything was in her place and that she wasn't forgetting anything, she walked over to Albedo and peeked over his shoulder at the sketch. The dirty blonde help it up for the traveler to see as he placed the pencil behind his ear again. Y/N stared in awe at the heavily detailed sketch, it was almost as if someone had used a Kamera.
"Wow, it's beautiful," the blonde commented.
"I know you are, that's why I wanted to do this with you specifically." He added flatly.
Y/N looked at Albedo, clear shock and confusion present on her face.
"You're beautiful, and I wanted you to be aware of that. I can tell by the way you act that you're self-conscious of your body image, and I wanted to sketch you nude so you can step outside of your boundaries and become a bit more comfortable in your own skin. I noticed that as time passed, your posture became more relaxed and calm, less on edge and anxious. I really hope this helped you appreciate your appearance a little more, I want you to be able to see yourself the way others see you, including myself." Albedo placed a soft kiss on your forehead as he concluded this thought.
Y/N was shocked by this. She covered her mouth with one of her hands and looked away, blushing. Had she had known Albedo's, although wholesome, ulterior motives, she most likely would never have agreed.
"Thank you, that means a lot to me. I am a bit more comfortable in my body now, especially since I've been standing stark naked in front of a person of the opposite sex for almost an hour." She chuckled nervously.
Albedo wrapped his arms around the blonde's waist and pulled her closer to him, placing a soft kiss on her lips. Y/N was caught off guard by this, but didn't reject his advances nonetheless.
"Please pay me a visit soon, I really enjoy spending time with you. Whether it be solving puzzles or drawing, I'd love to spend another day with you." The dirty blonde held the traveler close to him.
Y/N snaked her arms around the male's neck and buried her face in the crook of it. She relaxed into his arms and allowed them to fully hold her.
"'Kay," the blonde replied, allowing the two to share a comfortable moment of silence.
