Homestuck One-shots

Demon!Dave x Reader

(TW; #cursing #demon #ungodly )

      I was walking home from work, angry that my car was being borrowed by Jane and now I had to walk in this snow storm. It was dark but I was so close to getting home, I could see the familiar yellow hue to my one story house. My teeth chattered, it somehow felt colder and more eerie. I sped up my walking pace, hearing footsteps behind me making me want more than anything to be in the safety and warmth of my home. "Damn (L/n)! Slow down a bit, would'ya?" 

The familiar voice of none other than Dave Strider rang out. I began to slow down and turned, looking at the pale blonde. I was shocked, thinking he was dead seeing as we never talked anymore. I looked him over, he was pale and his eyes seemed to glow behind his oh-so familiar Strider shades. "Dave. . . ?" 

I barely spoke above a whisper, my teeth chattering in the cold. "W-where in the hell have you been?! I've been worried sick you know!" 

I stomped closer to the taller male, glaring up at him. He nervously smiled, showing a pair of fangs. I tensed up, backing away from the male. I began to look closer at him. He was different, his ears were pointed and he had stains on his once white t-shirt with a broken record on it. "Sorry to have worried you." 

His voice was low, not like his usual tone. It was almost as if he was warning me, telling me to get away while I could. But I couldn't leave him now, seeing him again brought old memories that had been locked away for some time. I remembered his smile, his ruby-red eyes that would brighten when he talked about a new sick beat he created. I reached out to Dave, cupping his cheek as a warm smile spread across my face. He flinched away, a frown covering his handsome features. I reached up and removed his glasses before the boy could stop me. 

"Oh my god. . ." 

I stared at his eyes, they were not Dave's eyes. They were those of a demon. I dropped his shades and backed away, this was not my Dave, not anymore. "(Y/n) I-I can explain!" 

Fear now clouded his vision, but he knew better than to reach out for me. "P-please! Hear me out!"

My heart hurt, hearing his fearful voice, seeing the tears build in his eyes. He was afraid of loosing me. But he wasn't about to. "P-please. . ." He paused holding back tears, "I love you. . d-don't leave me. . " He was looking away from me, hiding his pale face from my view. 

"I would never leave you. Because. . . I love you too." 

Dave sobbed and hugged me, my heart broke  little more when he kept apologizing. His form shifted into one of a horrible shadowy beast, large crow wings flapped. Once. Twice. My vision clouded with tears, pain rippled through my shoulder where Dave's head had been. I was claimed by a demon, and no one was going to take me away from him.

(Y/n) had passed out, Dave took her home and began living with her. Soon after they began a long relationship, Dave not caring if it was frowned upon for demons and humans to be together. (Y/n) and Dave lived long, (Y/n) dying in her old age. Dave lived on alone, never bringing himself to turn his lover into a monster like himself.
