I just really want a fic or something where Squid is secretly crushing on a player who falls asleep while playing the game, just.
I really like Squid he needs more love.
Idk what title give to this one. Enjoy.
TW/CW: None.
The time on the screen read two in the morning, and you can already feel your eyelids getting heavier, heavier and heavier every second that passed in your bedroom in the dark, the only illumination being your computer screen with the variations of pink flashing. It felt like the earth's gravity was against you and it just pulled you down further and further down. Just twenty more attempts...
And you've just noticed Squid being quieter than he should be... The AI went out of death voicelines to mock you, perhaps? You didn't know if you liked it or not, Squid was a pain in the ass sometimes, but you would feel guilty if you don't admit he's hilarious, even cute sometimes.
Damn, you feel that every second that passes the chance of you fainting increases more and more, you just have to finish this level... And maybe another one too.
And as you felt closer and closer to your erasure, Squid thinks, watching you. Gosh, he felt so, so stupid for falling for another human. How could he, after all that happened.
The worst part is, the AI knows you are probally the most stupid of all the other stupid gut buckets he have seen. You know he's a bad one, you know he literally killed half the human race. And yet, here you are from the start, with all the patience passing all levels, no angry yelling, no hitting the table because of rage, no ranting to your friend how much you hated him by messages, nothing.
He hated you because you had common sense. Nothing to hate. No reason to exclaim 'Ha! I knew I wasn't in love! Love is dumb anyway'.
Squid hates how he thinks about you everyday, asking himself what things you would like to get as a gift, what makes you laugh, what kind of animals do you like, your favorite movie, shows, books, game, maybe even musical, what type of clothes you got in your cabinet... He feels dumb, he shouldn't feel like this, but his inner programming says the contrary.
Could Squid find a way to acess your camera? At least he could try to get access to your microphone. He's the doom of humanity, stuff like these are super easy.
In the middle of the process of Squid accessing your camera, he notices the lack of movement in the snail, he would question it, but was already dealing with another something.
Of course Squid was right, it wasn't difficult at all! Piece of cake. The AI would be lying if he wasn't feeling a little excited, he was wondering if you had long or short hair (maybe even no hair at all!), or how your room looked like. What color is you skin, or maybe your eyes, or if you had a animal. And when Squid finally saw your face, he only comes across a human body unconscious in a chair with closed eyes.
...Not what Squid expected...
You still had your headphones on, so carefully, Squid turned the volume down slightly without you notice. And so, he analyze your physical appearance, not bad...
Squid looked at you one last time, opening a grin. "Good night human."
Everything was dark, Squid could barely see your bed, or anything that is present in your current area. It was better to save this one for later, you don't deserve to suddenly wake up because of a game. Screen lighting dimmed, Squid wished he could take you to his bed, but he wasn't able to (for now, at least).
