Pillow Fort | Flashfire Fluff

AAAAAAAAA

Mask comes off in this chapter so uh, face headcanon for Pyro revealed just a heads up. Also fast-moving +plus other personal hcs

--------------------

Scout sighed leaning back onto the couch, the rest of the mercenaries were sitting around preoccupied waiting for Medic to arrive. They were supposed to hold a meeting to plan for tonight but they couldn't start until everyone was here. Scout lazily turned his head and was relieved to see that Medic was finally here. But his relief turned to surprise when he saw that Medic was leading Pyro into the room, their hand was covering their face which, surprisingly... didn't seem to have a mask on at the moment.
"How goes it Doc?" Engie asked looking up from his book.

"So, zhey are fine... just... zhey cannot wear zheir mask for a while without putting too much pressure on zhe damaged areas in zheir face," Medic said leading them into the room.

The other mercenaries turned to look at Pyro with curiosity.

Pyro slowly removed one of their hands from their face but kept their right cheek covered with their hand. Scout was a little taken aback, they were... uh. Their skin was pale and looked soft, but also clearly had seen many scars. and they had big, beautiful dreamy blue eyes that looked fearful but elegant, like a deer almost. Their hair was a deep black and messy, brushing just above their eyes, it looked soft and fluffy. They were actually surprisingly... cute? Scout felt his face grow a little warm as they made eye contact with him.

"Nice," Sniper said offhandedly before turning back to his card game with Spy.

Some of the other mercs chimed in but Scout just stared. Pyro noticed him staring and moved their hand to under their chin revealing a burn on the bottom right of their face.

"How'd you get that," He said pointing at them.

Pyro looked embarrassed, "Fire,"

"Well no shit," Scout said, "It's kinda cool,"

"Thanks," Despite that Pyro still looked somewhat embarrassed but Scout didn't have time to say anything as Medic changed the subject. Pyro sat down on the couch on the opposite side of Scout and began fidgeting with the buckle on their suit. The mercenaries began to discuss the plans for that night but Scout just spaced out as usual, he always took the easy job of staying back in the fort and helping get the living room set up. He usually just let Demo and Soldier take over and would mess around with Pyro the whole time. As he thought about this he turned over to Pyro and looked over them, it felt odd seeing them without their mask. It wasn't the first time he had heard their voice as Pyro occasionally pulled their mask up a bit just enough to be understandable. But it was certainly the first time he had heard it clearly. Pyro seemed to be looking around the room like a curious bird, seemingly spaced out as well. Pyro's eyes always got this sort of look in them when they were spaced out, he knew they were probably playing around in their imagination. Personally, Scout found it impressive how they could sit there doing nothing but be entertained by their own mind, Scout could hardly focus on one thing for more than a couple of minutes.

"Scout, Scout!" Scout snapped out of his daze and turned to see Spy standing in front of him.

"What! What! Jeez man, scared the hell outta me..." He muttered.

"Do you want to come with us?" Spy asked with a seeming mix of irritation and hesitation.

"To what?" Scout asked settling down.

"To go rent the movie, you never come so I thought I'd ask,"

"Nah, I'm just gonna chill back here and help with the setup,"

Scout leaned back onto the couch and turned his head to where Pyro had been sitting.

They had gotten up presumably to go into their stash of blankets they had. Scout went and grabbed some pillows and when he came back he got an idea. He took the couch cushions and set them up into a fort just like his brothers used to do when they were little. Pyro eventually came back in and Scout looked up at them holy crap they looked adorable. They were wearing their red and orange dragon onesie and carrying a huge stack of blankets.
