tipsy (ymir x reader)

"What?" I gaped at her.

im just giving you a hard time there's no need-

"It's my fault you're like this," her grip on the spoon tightened.

slow down you're going to break something-

"What do you mean? You saved me didn't you? I know I was giving you a hard time about it but I really didn't mean it-" I frowned, clasping her hand in mine.

you've saved me countless times

"I should've kept a closer eye on you," Ymir grumbled, turning away from me.

probably but-

"You came when I needed it didn't you?"

and while i'll probably give you a hard time about pushing me like that- i know you were just trying to get me out as fast as possible

"If you really want to make it up to me you can continue to look out for me," I paused. "I'd rather you stop beating yourself up over it, it was honestly a little stupid of me to want to buy something like that to begin with."

im a little sad that i wasn't able to get the dress regardless

i wanted to-

i wanted to show ymir my world

i wanted to pamper her

i wanted to show her off

selfish

i don't even know why im acting like this

"Hey," Ymir looked back at me, her gaze firm. "We're going to give your father hell."

that's more like it

"That was always the plan," I hummed, "seeing as he felt comfortable dragging innocents into our issues, any hesitation I had before has been completely forgotten."

ymir said petra is fine so i'll try not to worry about it

but the fact that he was so comfortable letting the people that he hired do something like that

as if it doesn't reflect back on him- he must not be worried

"But we shouldn't be worrying about that right now," Ymir beamed confidently, "don't even think about revenge until you've healed."

i feel better already

"You really don't need to fuss over me like this."

"I want to."

why?

"Well-" my gaze fell to my hands. "Don't feel indebted to me, I haven't done anything."

i don't want her to look after me just because she thinks i'm weak

"I'm invested in your revenge Y/N, I can't have you passing out on me," she continued to feed me. "Besides, it hurts me to see pretty women suffering."

"I'm thankful that someone like you is invested in me."

i wish i had the power to do the same

"You're helping me out aren't you? We're partners."

"Yeah something like that."

"Ok enough of this, it's getting stuffy in here," Ymir chuckled, setting the bowl down. "You should go to sleep."

I DON'T THINK I COULD IF I TRIED

"Stay and talk?"

"I have some paperwork to do," she gestured towards the office.

THAT'S A LIE AND WE BOTH KNOW IT

"What happened to the dress I picked out for you?" I cut in, grabbing her wrist before she could try to leave.

THAT'S A DUMB QUESTION IM ALMOST CERTAIN IT GOT DROPPED ON THE FLOOR OR SOMETHING

"That was for me?" Ymir froze.

YEAH ??

"I mean I wasn't going shopping for myself."

i bought it with my dad's money and everything it would be a shame if it just got left behind

"I put it with the rest of your things, you should keep it, it would look better on you."

i got it for you

"How would you know? Did you try it on?"

PLEASE TRY IT ON

"No but-"

"Try it on!"

"This is not dress up-" she protested, a pink flush rising to her cheeks.

cute

"I promise to go to sleep if you do."

PLEASE ??

"Fine-"

VICTORY

"Well? What are you waiting for, go get changed."

if you need help! i! am! always! available!

"Don't get your hopes up," she sighed, rummaging through a pile of my belongings.

i just know it's going to look amazing

"Just try it."

besides- it would be helpful if you would accompany me to a few events if we're seriously going to be getting back at my father

where did ymir say we were headed?

i should try to contact someone as soon as we get there

come to think of it

levi and erwin don't know where i am right now- and my brother doesn't even know what's happened

i should reach out before my father does

or at the very least attempt to

"Shit," Ymir cursed from the other room.

YOU GOOD?

"Do you need help?" I called out to her.

not sure i can walk to you but if you come in

"You're just looking for an excuse to get a good look at me."

you got me there

"Maybe," I hummed, eyes glued to the door. "Seriously, do you need help? It sounds like you're struggling."

"I'm fine," she grumbled, the sound of shuffling fabric and groaning following.

YOU SURE???

"I'm serious I can he-"

"I told you, I'm fine," Ymir cut me off, pushing open the door.

wow

The black dress framed her body, the skirt had a long slit that exposed constellations of scars that ran up Ymir's thigh, thousands of tiny gold crystals ran up the skirt in an ombre effect.

wow

"Do you like it?" I leaned forward, reaching out to feel the material.

it's ok if you don't but-

"Do you like it?"

"I love it."
