Once again, I got to choose the prompt this time! I chose "hot chocolate" from my autumn themed back up list 'cause it sounded so cozy lol. I really wanted to write a scene with Levi that was set somewhere other than his room or MC's room, so this is what I ended up with. Just a short but sweet lil scene. Also I definitely made up some details I'm sure you'll be able to tell immediately which ones lol.
FLUFFTOBER 2023
GN!MC x Leviathan
Warnings: none!
You stood just inside the door to the House of Lamentation, wrapping a purple scarf around Levi's neck. He frowned at you, clearly not at all pleased with how the situation was going.
"I don't see why we have to go to a cafe for hot chocolate when we can make some here," he grumbled as you tucked the scarf into his jacket.
"Don't you think it'll be nice to get out of the house for a bit?" you asked, smiling happily.
Levi shuddered. "I'm an otaku, MC! Why would you ever think I would like getting out of the house?"
You laughed, completely unbothered by his complaints. "It's a good excuse to wear this adorable scarf of yours. You hardly ever wear it and it looks so good on you!"
Levi groaned. "Why do I have to wear it anyway? You sound like Asmo."
"You have to wear it because it's cold outside," you said.
"Just another reason to stay home!" Levi declared, tugging on the scarf like he was going to unwrap it.
You grabbed his hand, which distracted him and made him blush. "Come on, let's go!"
You pulled him out of the front door, down to the street. You kept your hand clasped in his, threading your fingers together. You were rewarded by the deepening color of the blush on his cheeks.
Levi mostly stopped protesting now that you were already outside. He let you lead him down the street, holding onto your hand like a lifeline.
When you finally reached the cafe you had in mind, you were pleased to see that there wasn't much of a line. You felt Levi squeeze your hand hard. You smiled at him, pulling him close as you went inside and got in line.
You pulled Levi along as you got to the counter. "Three Ruri-chan special hot chocolates, please," you said to the demon taking orders.
Levi looked from you to the barista and back again. "What?"
The barista simply nodded, took your money and name, and told you it would be out soon.
You tugged Levi over to a table and sat down. You didn't want to let go of him, so you just held his hand across the table.
"I'm surprised you didn't already know about it," you said to Levi, grinning happily at him. "This cafe is doing a collaboration with the studio that makes Hana Ruri. They got the recipe for the hot chocolate they show in episode 15 of season 8."
Levi tugged down on his scarf so he could speak more freely. "The hot chocolate that Ruri-chan and Azuki-tan drink after they defeated the snowman from space?!"
You laughed, but before you could respond, the barista called your name. You let go of Levi's hand, patting it before getting up to grab the drinks.
You came back shortly, putting the drinks on the table.
Levi exclaimed excitedly. "These mugs!"
"They're limited edition souvenir mugs," you said. "You get to keep them."
Levi looked up at you, his eyes a little teary. "So that's why you ordered three."
"One to keep, one to display, and one to use," you said.
Levi put his hands over his face in an attempt to hide his blush. "M-MC… why didn't you tell me this was why you wanted to come here?"
You reached across the table to pull one of his hands away. "I wanted it to be a surprise! Now hurry up and drink some of this before it gets cold!"
Levi picked up one of the mugs, reluctantly letting go of your hand to do so, and sipped at the chocolatey liquid. You were thrilled to see the smile spread across his face as he closed his eyes happily. "Just imagine. This is what Ruri-chan experienced after the harrowing battle with the space snowman…"
You took one of the mugs and sipped your own. The hot chocolate was actually really good. By then it had cooled off enough that it was the perfect temperature, a delicious sweetness that filled you with warmth. Even so, it wasn't as sweet as the emotions you saw in Levi's eyes when he finally opened them again.
"Thank you, MC," he said quietly, a shy smile on his face now.
You smiled. "I'm just happy you're enjoying it. I guess it was worth leaving the house for, huh?"
Levi groaned and put down his mug. "I'll never complain about leaving the house with you again!"
You laughed.
Later on, when you had walked home with a little bag that carried the souvenir mugs, the two of you washed them carefully.
You were about to leave one in the kitchen and bring the other two upstairs, but Levi took one of them out of your hands. He placed it on the shelf next to the one he was going to be using.
"What are you doing?" you asked.
Levi blushed. "That one is yours." He lifted the one in his hand. "I can display this one."
You cocked your head. "But-"
"I would just pack it away anyway," Levi interrupted you before you could protest. "I'd rather you use it."
You smiled, reaching out to grab his jacket and tug him closer to you. You leaned in to kiss him and his arms circled around you, one hand still holding on to the third mug.

ALSO speaking of tantan, i think he's like a skeletal unicorn.. sortta. his tail is bone because id imagine a horse tail mightve looked funny to the designers, its stated.. somewhere.. that he has his birthmarks on his back, i also think hes warmblooded entirely because firey anger fits a warm typea character
if he were coldblooded id bet hed enchant his clothes or something to warm up so cats will want to snuggle up on him
Oh nooo, anon, that sounds sooo cute!! I think he might warm his clothes like that even if he was warm blooded... cats definitely like warm things. D'awww now I'm just imaging a little kitty all tucked up in that sweater of his, purring because it's so comfy and warm!!
Wait. Okay. Do you think this is why he doesn't wear the one sleeve? More room for sheltering cats??? Probably not, but man there has to be a reason for it. It's so stupid otherwise lol.
Anyway, I definitely think he'd look funny if he had a straight up horse tail. I mean, it's mostly hair. There's not a bone all the way through it like with a cat tail. It'd just be kinda limp. I love the skeletal unicorn idea. Just replace all the hair with bone, it's certainly cooler.
Only Tantan could pull off the duality of being a cool skeletal unicorn and a sweet warm kitty cuddler.
