Dabi x Reader
Summary: Reader is his most precious possession.
When you’d been dropped at his feet, he was skeptical. The knight had been dying — a process he was happy to help along, once he’d heard what he had to say — when he begged for him to protect you, leaving you swaddled at his clawed feet.
Typically people had a strong distaste for dragons who kept princesses, but apparently the hostile takeover of your kingdom had caused this to be an exception. Shrinking down into his humanoid form, he plopped down beside you, staring with ethereal blue eyes. The two horns that curled from his head didn’t frighten you; in fact, you seemed most interested in them as he leaned down to examine you.
Small, pudgy hands reached for him, and he couldn’t help but smirk. You were a cute little thing, despite being all fleshy and needy. Carefully, he lifted you up from the stone ground, warmed by several blue fires he’d started when the knight arrived, and held you to him. Almost immediately, your little hands grasped and pulled on one of his horns, earning nothing but an annoyed huff as he attempted to gently shake you away. It made you laugh; his heart melted.
“… Fine. I’ll keep you.” Dabi sighed, and that was how the two of you began.
