Fuck You and Your Pretty Face

“Dude, why’s your face so red?” Dave asks, and shit, fuck, of course he noticed. The motherfucker sounded more awkward than he has in a quarter sweep earlier, but he’s still observant enough to see the shit you don’t want him to notice because he wouldn’t be Dave Strider otherwise. You’re fucked.You can pretend you don’t know what that bristly tense feeling is all you want, but you actually do know yourself pretty well. You’ve watched a lot of romance movies. You meet up with Kanaya every other week to talk about the trashy romance novels you both love even though they’re objectively complete garbage. You have spent sweeps in your own head, examining every part of yourself that you hated, and even if you maybe hate yourself less now, you still know yourself more than well enough to know what this is.None of that means you have any idea what to do about being this painfully attracted to Dave fucking Strider, though. A gift for lielking for Homestuck Secret Santa 2020.
