Pretty Boy // {c! Quackity x reader}

✿Chapter.6✿

The two watched as Schlatt had walked back into his office and shut the door. Quackity turned to Y/n, "Come on let's give you that tour quick so we can stay in my garden!" She perked up at this. "Bet! What're we doing still standing here??" She said grabbing his hand.

The shorter boy flushed at this, his heart began to pick up in speed. That stupid fluttery feeling was back, and he never wanted it to go away. "..Wait–I just realized I don't know where anything is–" she said as she let go.

"Take the lead Sir Quackity." She said with a smile. He frowned slightly when she let go, but her smile was anything he could ever want.

They walked throughout the halls, looking through rooms and the art pieces that hung on the walls. Potted plants lined some hallways, while red carpet was draped down the middle. Pointing down the last hall at a dark oak door Quackity says, "That's Schlatt's room," pointing toward a similar door near by he says, "and this one's mine."

"Could you show me around your room?" She asked. He nodded opening the door, it creaked slightly as he pushed it open. Inside there was a cozy bed, with dark blue covers. Large windows cascaded the noon's sunlight into the room, with dark grey curtains framing them. On the side held an armour stand with netherite armour and an axe.

Near the armour stand was a desk, which had document after document sprawled on top of it. The chair was pulled out a little, he must've been in a rush at the time. What caught her eye on the chair was the poncho that she had given him. She smiled walking farther into the room, "I see that you still have my poncho."

Quackity's head snapped to where she was looking, "I- I mean yeah, yeah why would I get rid of it?" She laughed a bit at his response, "You know one day I'll ask for that back," his eyes widened a bit, "You can-" "Calm down.. keep it till then, I'll have a gift when I take it back." She said smiling at him.

"This is the garden, I come here a lot to.. distress." Quackity announced as he closed his eyes, soaking in the sunlight. The girl looked in wonder as she took in everything. An array of flowers were planted, along with trees that shaded a small pond. Near the pond sat a bench, little carvings were etched into the dark wood.

She walked over the bench looking at each of the carvings. A lot of them being cute little notes, some little drawings.

Karl stole ur mom ;]

✧Jack Manifold the beloved✧

Niki was here<3

Big innit Tommy was here B-)

Were a few that made her laugh a little. Brushing her hand over the different carvings, she noticed a rather big one. It was a scratched out one, it was jagged and erratic. "What's this one from?" She asked while lightly tracing it. Quackity stayed quiet for a bit as he sat with her staring at the marking.

"It was a heart, with mine and Schlatt's initials in it. Stupid yes, but it was cute at the time." He chuckled as he put his fingers on it. It used to hold such fond memories, but later turned into something he couldn't bare to look at.

He retracted a bit when a piece stabbed him. The blood pricked on the tip of his ring finger. "I scratched out the heart though, a while back, I didn't like seeing it anymore." He finished as he put his finger in his mouth to get rid of the blood.

She looked back at the bench, "Can I scratch something into it?" He looked over at her, "Sure go ahead." Taking out her netherite sword she carved around the scribble. She began to etch in petals, creating a sunflower. Next to the flower she wrote,

✿
Stay bright for me pretty boy.
-y/n :)

It was messy, but enough to understand what she wrote. She tried tidying up a few of the words as well as chipping at any splinters.  Brushing away the chips, she smiled. She backed away, allowing Quackity to see what she had put.

He stared for a second, a smile grew ever so slightly. What was noticable was the deep red blush that spread across his face.  "I..I love it, thanks Y/n." "Anytime Big Q."

The two sat in the garden, admiring the world around them. Butterflies danced in the air, while dragonflies hovered over the pond every so often. Once in while they'd even see a beautiful bird fly into a tree, or point to clouds claiming they looked like fish or cupcakes. Y/n had spotted a bunny at some point, pointing it out the boy.

The paths were busy as everyone passed by in a blur. The pair had decided to take a walk around town, and it did not disappoint. Quackity had introduced Y/n to a few friends of his, such as Karl and Jack Manifold.

Karl was an interesting one, if that was the right word she could even use to describe the boy. She even bumped into Fundy, Wilbur's son. He had grown quite a bit since she had last seen him, and he had basically ran to her.

Sally, Fundy's mother had died due to troubles giving birth. Since then Y/n had always tried to be a mother figure to Fundy. She had always had a soft spot for the little fox, and felt terrible when leaving to adventure with Techno. She was glad she'd be able to reconnect with him soon.

As of now they just walked through town, looking at the different shops and people. Even a castle was seen, towering over the land while shining rainbow light upon the trees. Quackity later telling her it was Eret's renewed castle, she scrunched her nose at this. Y/n had also noticed the amount of guards present. In her opinion it was a bit much, but they had taken Wilbur's walls down to be fair.

"Y/n.. I have a question." The feathered boy said looking over at her. "Ask away." "Why are you working for Schlatt?" The question was bound to be asked at some point, but it still had caught her off guard. She thought for a moment, she could tell him of Pogtopia, but that would be far too risky.

Sure she wished she could tell him, tell him everything, but she doesn't truly know where he stands with a possible revolution. Instead she chose to give him a part of the truth, explaining how she and Techno had been traveling for so long.

Later adding that they now have a home outside of L'manburg, and that she comes into town to work for money and food. Most of that was true, she wouldn't lie, but there is the other motive.

To take L'manburg back.
