[Toriko] Toriko x Reader

Third Person POV

"TORIKO, YOU GLUTTON!" (First Name) shouted, sprinting beside the Bishokuya while Komatsu trailed behind them, crying and screaming for his life while clutching a hibiscus tightly to his chest.

"I COULDN'T HELP IT, OKAY?! I WAS STARVING!" The blue-haired man retorted, clutching a few Moonblossom Hibisylva, a pale pink and silver hibiscus that only bloomed under moonlight. One of its petals bore a very obvious bite mark.

Moonblossom Hibisylva (Dessert Ingredient) Capture Level: 5

"Toriko-san, why couldn't you wait until we got out of the creature's territory?!" Komatsu exclaimed, running as fast as his legs would carry him. "The knocking (First Name)-chan did on that thing wore off in just a few minutes, how durable is it?!"

"Less talk, more running! It's clearly territorial, and we're trespassing! It definitely thinks we're taking all of the Moonblossom!" (First Name) huffed, while the blue-haired man beside her let out a carefree chuckle.

"Well, at least we're getting good exercise. It's been a while since the three of us went on a hunt, right?" Toriko said with a closed-eyed grin.

"Toriko, you big dummy!" The female Bishokuya stared at the Heavenly King in disbelief, while Komatsu's mouth fell open and his eyes bulged. "This is no time to joke around!"

"Toriko-san! (First Name)-chan! I don't want to be plant food! I haven't written my will yet!" Komatsu exaggerated, still clutching the Moonblossom like his life depended on it, earning a dumbfounded look from the (Hair Color)-haired female.

"Pull yourself together, Komatsu! No one is going to be plant food!"

"Toriko, do something!"

"You already know that if I can't eat it, I won't kill it!" Toriko replied instantly, glancing back at the lean predator resembling a dinosaur, its body wrapped in living vines, hibiscus petals sprouting along its neck and tail. "This thing doesn't even have anything edible on it!"

Scarlet Vine Raptor (Plant-Beast Hybrid)
Capture Level: 22

"If you won't, then I will, you glutton!" (First Name) snapped, skidding to a halt and kicking up a small cloud of dust as she turned to face the raptor. Its vine tendrils coiled, ready to bind its prey.

The (Hair Color)-haired Bishokuya raised her left hand, palm open like a blade, while her other hand clenched near her chest like a hammer. "This time, I'll knock you senseless!"

"Go get 'em, (First Name)-chan!" Komatsu cheered, standing behind Toriko as the two kept a safe distance from the incoming fight. "B-but be careful!"

The blue-haired man shifted into a protective stance, ready to step in the moment the female Bishokuya needed him.

"Show that plant monster who's boss, (Nickname)!" Toriko called out, his brown eyes never leaving (First Name)'s figure. His confidence in her was absolute, though beneath it, genuine concern lingered.

The battle that followed was anything but brief...

"You could've easily defeated that raptor, Toriko," (First Name) grumbled under her breath before taking a quick bite of the hot, grilled meat seasoned and cooked by Komatsu.

She heard a chuckle from the blue-haired Heavenly King as he paused mid-bite from his nth serving and ruffled the female Bishokuya's hair. She shot him a glare, clearly upset by the gesture.

"Are you kidding? You knocked that Scarlet Vine Raptor around like there was no tomorrow. It didn't look like you needed my help at all," Toriko said. A soft smile crept onto his lips, his brown eyes locking onto (First Name)'s (Eye Color) irises, refusing to break contact.

"I believe in your strength, that's why I didn't intervene."

He leaned back slightly, still smiling.

"Although, if something were to happen, you know I'd swoop in and finish it for you, (Nickname)." Toriko's gaze softens at (First Name), his words more quiet only for her to hear causing her ears to turn red from just his looks.

"Toriko-san is right, (First Name)-chan, you're a very strong person! Your knocking techniques and unique abilities are very impressive and always amazes me, to think you're able to stand your ground against a higher level capture." Komatsu said as he stopped his cooking for a bit to face the female bishokuya who's now slowly turning red in embarrassment from the complements of the combo partners, "No wonder you're called as the uncrowned heavenly king, your power is on the same level as the four!"

"Both of you stop! I can't handle too many compliments all in one night!" (First Name) quickly ate the remaining hot grilled meat on her plate and then picked up the cup of Moonblossom recovery tea that she made awhile ago while Komatsu was preparing the food for tonight's dinner.

"Excuse me, I'll have my tea somewhere quiet." The female Bishokuya hurried into the dark forest, ignoring Toriko and Komatsu calling after her.

(First Name)'s POV

I let out a sigh once I was out of earshot of Komatsu and Toriko, saving myself the embarrassment. Hearing too many compliments isn't something I'm used to. I took a sip of the Moonblossom recovery tea, already feeling the fatigue fade as my tense body slowly relaxed.

I wasn't far from the two of them, just a comfortable distance away, wanting a bit of alone time. Spotting a rock large enough to use as a seat, I walked over and settled down after placing the cup on the ground, careful not to spill its contents. I took a moment to appreciate the scenery around me, various gourmet trees and grasses swaying gently.

"Hey, (Nickname). You don't mind me joining you?"

I heard a very familiar voice, then felt something heavy rest atop my head. I already knew it was Toriko towering behind me, wearing a closed-eyed, toothy smile, his chin using my head as a resting place. Instinctively, I leaned into his warmth.

Toriko stayed silent, not wanting to disrupt the tranquility. I felt the weight lift from my head, though his presence remained close as he adjusted himself behind me. When I looked, I saw him sitting comfortably, me in front, Toriko close behind, his chiseled chest pressed against my back and his legs settled at my sides. The size difference between us was unmistakable, even under the moonlight.

Strong, muscular arms wrapped around my waist, and Toriko's face hovered near the side of my neck. His breath brushed against my skin, making me shudder and earning a soft chuckle from the blue-haired bishokuya.

"That tickles, Toriko." I felt a blush creep up my cheeks.

He nuzzled closer, letting out a muffled laugh. "But I know you like it, (Nickname)."

The close proximity sent butterflies through my stomach, and in the end, I simply surrendered to the quiet, comfortable atmosphere we shared.
