Dive Deep into Creativity: Your Ultimate Tumblr Experience Awaits
This man just makes me so yaaas @gimzowhizmo my beloved
All my tiny medic brain can think about is cuddling my big teddy bear engineer husband šš„ŗ I already miss him so much
The first piece of art Iāve been able to complete in a while
-the doctor is boiling because engie thought it would be a good idea to take her there in the summer
-a lot of tank top medic to engieās liking she hates having her arms exposed but itās so damn hot
-engie carries a lot of water with him and when they share a bed medic brings an ice pack for her to lay on to sleep
-probably one of the hotter summers at 105.F
-beach babe medic 100% just give her some margaritas or any frozen alcoholic beverage and sheās set although engie will need to constantly apply sunscreen on her sheās embarrassed every time he applies it
-she still ends up getting slightly burnt As engie applies aloe to her burns she lowkey enjoys everything especially when he takes care of her
Just got into gmod annnnnnd
Medic/Cupid: I swear i am my own doctor and yet Iām still late to my own appointments
Engie/Calvin; you have to adult medic or do I need to call the administrator to get a doctor for you
Medic/Cupid: you do that and I saw your arm off.
Engie/Calvin: then get your checkup done
Medic/Cupid: Finnnnnne dummkopf..

Characters: Medic, Engineer
CW: Needles, injection (I swear to god it's not bad but still there's a warning for it--)
Summary: Engie, sleep deprived and exhausted as can be, hears the gentle sound of a violin playing through the base. Curiosity gets the better of him and he investigates.
Word Count: 2.6K
A/N: The idea of this oneshot has been haunting me for months and I finally had the motivation to write it. Fingers crossed that I'll still have the motivation to write the next chapter of my fic soon. I really wanna get back to that... Oh, I also crossposted this onto Ao3 last night. If you'd like to read it there instead (or ya know swing by and read my other stuff), that'd be really nice of you. Anywho, enough rambling, here's the silly oneshot.
The Engineer would say he was pretty used to the madness of his teammates. I mean, he'd already been here a couple of months now, so surely he must have adjusted to it. Anywhere from Sniper and his collection of piss jars to Pyro just...being himself, it was obvious that none of them were exactly 'normal'.
But, what he didn't expect to hear was the sound of music echoing through the halls.
He had been tinkering around with his designs for the dispenser, trying to finalize it and get a good grip on building it, when he heard it. At first, he thought it was just his mind playing tricks. It was quite late and the effects of getting little-to-no sleep over the course of several days was getting to him. Who would've thunk that was not the smartest idea?
But, as time passed, it became clear that it wasn't just in his head. He could hear it. It was traveling through the vents. While it was just barely audible, he could still vividly hear the notes. Someone was playing music. Not just any old music either. It wasn't Demo playing a little tune on the piano or Scout playing his Tom Jones record.
Rather, Engie could make out the very distinct sound of it. The shrill, yet elegant melody it produced. There was no doubt in his mind: that was a violin.
Naturally, he was curious. What could compel somebody to get up at whatever time it is right now and play such...admittedly beautiful music. Even if Engie was more of a countryman, preferring his guitars, banjos, and fiddles, it'd be a lie to say he didn't appreciate the grandeur of other instruments. So, he caved in. He placed down his wrench and walked out of the door.
Now in the halls, he just wandered around. There was no way that this went unnoticed by the others. Perhaps they were asleep or were simply not bothered enough to investigate. Either way, it was somewhat eerie. The empty labyrinth of the base before him, with only the sounds of his footsteps and breathing to duet the violin. He followed the sound, guided towards it like a moth to a flame. He had to see who was making it now. As he did however, it became more and more appropriate just who exactly this mystery musician was.
The music was getting louder as he went further in. He turned the corner, peeping down another hallway. This time he was met with a pair of doors, with a dull neon red sign displaying the words 'INFIRMARY' positioned above. The frosted glass made it impossible to see through clearly, but he could see a dim light from the inside.
There was no doubt in Engie's mind that this is where the source of it was. He chuckled lightly, smiling to himself. Of course. It should've been his first thought to assume it was Medic.
Yet, he didn't want to go back to the shop. He came out all this way just to see what this was about. He couldn't just not go in. He carefully walked towards the door, hesitating for a moment. He listened to the notes, now being able to hear them much clearer. The somber, yet hauntingly peaceful melody that came forth from it. But, despite this, he knocked, interrupting the piece.
Instantly, the violin stopped. Engie felt his stomach drop a fair bit. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to intrude on the Medic of all people, even if they are partners.
Moments later, he heard rushed footsteps approach the door. It unlocked and opened up, revealing the man himself.
"Mein Gott, can't you people see that I'mā" Medic cut himself off upon seeing Engie. He wasn't wearing his work uniform, but rather his light brown waistcoat and white dress shirt. A bright red tie that was ever so slightly wrinkled was tied around his neck. His eyes, bright and blue as they may be, held a tiredness to them. The oddest thing about him however was how his hands were uncovered. His precious scarlet red gloves were removed, showing his delicate hands.
"Hey, doc." Engie tipped his hard hat. "What are you doing up so late?"
Medic glanced back into his room. "I'll assume that you came because you heard that, no?"
"Nah, just wanted to drop by in the middle of the night and watch you sleep. What else?"
He paused. "...that was a joke, ja?" he asked, genuine confusion in his voice.
"Yeah, just messing with you. I was working when I heard your...violin? It's a violin, correct? So many of these darn stringed instruments."
Medic smiled back. "I was playing my violin, that's correct. I couldn't exactly sleep and neither could the birds. So, I figured why not play a few songs to tire both of us out? They love the music and I get some peace of mind."
"They ain't the only ones who're fans of your violin either," Engie said. "Honestly, I thought I was in some orchestra with you playing. Even through the vents, it sounds just amazing." He looked up at his partner. "You don't mind if I stay and listen for a minute, do ya?"
Medic's eyes perked up. "No, not at all!" He grabbed Engineer by the hand, practically pulling him inside. The nice thing about Medic is that you can always tell when he's happy about something. It was cute and endearing, making him almost forget how he was staring at a deranged lunatic.
"Thanks, doc." Engie grabbed a chair and sat down. "I didn't know you played music."
"I haven't quite found an excuse to break out my violin yet," he answered, fidgeting with the tuning pegs. "Neither with my piano or accordion."
"Accordion?" He echoed. "How the hell you managed to learn that?"
"Tradition. My mother insisted I learn these instruments as soon as I could. I was a prodigy that outclassed several adults by the age of six."
"Gee, aren't you special?"
Medic gave a playful smirk in return. "I've been on and off since then. I prefer the classics as opposed to ragtime and blues, as many would prefer. I know you'll like those better as well. I simply don't care."
"Pff, no?" Engie snickered. "I've just never quite got a chance with classical music. Sounds...different. Should be obvious though, considerin' how it's...ya know."
"You don't have to explain yourself, mein Partner," he said. "It's already flattering to have you sit and enjoy my music, despite me being rusty."
"You call that rusty? That was great, doc! Of course I'd have to swing by after hearing that."
Medic's smile shifted into a smug grin. "Well then..." he muttered, clearly enjoying the admiration and praise.
"What song were you just playing then?" Engineer asked, trying to steer things back on the right track.
"Oh, this?" He brushed his bow across the strings, hastily playing a couple of notes. "Just some Paganini."
"...who?" he asked. "Never heard of him."
Medic scoffed. "I'm not surprised." He slowed down, readjusting himself. He rested the violin on his shoulder and arm, going back to playing a slow tune. "Niccolò Paganini was an Italian musician. He's written quite a number of works, most of which are impossible."
"How can a piece be 'impossible' though?"
"He had exceptionally large fingers that allowed him toārather absurdly in my opinionāplay three octaves over four strings in a single draw of the bow."
The Engineer's expression must have been confused as Medic quickly chuckled. "It means that he wrote music that only he could play." He rocked on his feet. "Quite an impressive artist as well. Though, he's known mostly for his deal with the devil."
Engie leaned back in the chair. "So, he made some deal with the devil? What for? Already had big hands, what more could a guy want?"
Medic's expression shifted. "What do you mean by that?" he asked, genuine confusion in his voice. He shook his head and continued before the Engineer could answer. "I wouldn't know the validity of the claim. I recall once asking a demon about it when I was sacrificing some poor sod. They just brushed it off. Quite rude, don't you think?"
"Weren't you talking to an actual demon?" Engie inquired. "Be surprisin' if they were actually...well, concerned about your question."
"Mh, good point. Still, if a man has a question, it should be answered. Nutzloser DƤmon..." he cursed. "But, that is his tale. A man who played with such skill and talent that others believed him to have dealt with the devil."
"Can see why you like him then," he said.
"Hm? Oh, well, yes. I do suppose there's an aspect of that to him I can relate to. Although, I'm unsure if he was a mercenary." He laughed. "But, I still do find his pieces to be quite beautiful. This was one of his more energetic pieces: a revision of Liszt's 'La Campanella'."
Medic took a small inhale and drew his bow. In an instant, his fingers darted across the instrument. Engie looked in awe as he graciously played the instrument. In his left hand, the bow glided on the strings, quickly making sharp, yet dainty notes. In his right, it supported the violin, with his fingers pressing down on the right strings to form the correct chords.
It was beyond words, most because Engie's sleep-deprived brain couldn't quite fathom making any up to describe it. The melody was just about hypnotic, despite the intense speed. He could listen to it forever. Just a heavenly melody, a blessing upon his ears that've heard nothing but gunfire and screaming for weeks. He closed his eyes for what was only supposed to be a moment, but found the darkness comforting. He kicked his legs up on the table and folded his arms in. He let out a deep exhale before finally allowing sleep to take him away.
At last, he was finished with the piece. Five or however many minutes of just nonstop playing a very challenging song. But, he survived.
He bowed. "Thank you, my hard hatted friend. Deine Anwesenheit war sehr notwendig."
To his surprise, no response. A disappointing considering how much effort he put into that. Did the Engineer just not find it that entertaining?
He looked at his partner, awaiting some sort of feedback. Anything from him clapping or even a simple remark. Yet, nothing. It wasn't until Medic looked a little closer that he saw what was happening. Engie's breathing was deeper and more relaxed. He was...snoring.
"Ah, you've fallen asleep," he said, walking over to inspect him. "Well, at least my music did something, even if it was to lull you to sleep."
He quietly watched him, contemplating things a bit. For one, even if he looked comfortable, a chair is certainly not a place to sleep. Maybe it was how he came to his 'concert' of sorts, but Medic didn't want to leave him asleep on a chair. How he was set up, with his legs kicked up on the table, didn't exactly look the most comfortable.
...fine. Maybe Medic could do something.
His first instinct was to sedate him. Then again, his immediate thought upon seeing anybody asleep is to sedate them so that they'reāfor lack of a better termāeasier to work with. For one, he could pick up Engie and not have to worry about waking him up. It would also ensure that he'd have a nap longer than half an hour. If anything, shooting him with god-knows-what would be a favor.
He walked over to one of his trays, picking up a bottle. It was hard to see in the dark, but he was sure that it was one of his anmestics. Well, it could also be lethal poison, but let's not think about that. It probably is the correct vial. He took a possibly clean syringe and plunged it in, taking a healthy dose of the toxin.
"Now then..." he muttered turning back to the Engineer. "This will help you, mein Partner," he said, giving Engie a little pat on his hard hat before sticking the needle straight into his neck.
No reaction from the Engineer as he did so. Not even a slight change in breathing. Still breathing. That's a good sign. Means he's not dead. Being dead is bad, correct?
Medic hovered around the Engineer in silence, waiting a minute or two just to see if he was fine. After deeming that, yes, he didn't seem to be dying, he smiled. "Alright, now what?"
Truth be told, he didn't think this far. Usually when he sedates a person who's asleep, it's to then experiment and steal their organs. He couldn't quite do that with Engie, mostly because he was out of organs and...quite frankly didn't feel like rearranging his small intestine for the hell of it.
But, he couldn't just leave Engie on a chair. That's uncomfortable. Medic had slept in quite a number of them in his life. He was familiar with the back pain that would come in the morning.
Then, he realized something. The most obvious solution: carry him to a bed.
Medic smacked himself in the head. "Of course! Why had I not thought of that already?" he laughed to himself. He wedged his hands under the Engineer. One to support his back, the other to carry his legs.
"Eins, zwei, drei!" On three, he scooped him up. An easier feat than he thought, seeing as Engie was only around two hundred pounds. His body was warm and almost...comfortable to hold.
"Alright, now..." He was about to head to the door, ready to carry him across the entire base and back to the workshop before stopping himself. He had a bed right in this infirmary. A week ago, he cleared out an old storage room and remade it into a bedroom.
It was close and Medic knew it was cozy in there. A king-size bed with heavy blankets and a heavenly soft mattress. However, it was his bed. He didn't want to give it up, at least not without seriously considering it. Medic valued comfort. He liked his bed.
But...maybe just this once, Engie could sleep in it.
He swallowed his pride and walked towards the room. He bumped into the door, opening it up. He approached the bed and plopped the Engineer right down on it. He then pulled the blankets over him, tucking him in.
"I swear to god if you even so much as tell a single soul about this..." he whispered. "Just this one time, ja? And only because you fell asleep to my violin."
No response. Engie was peacefully snoring away without a care in the world. Medic couldn't help but feel a smile stretch across his face. He knelt to Engie's level and caressed his face. He then patted him lightly. "Gute Nacht, Herr Engineer."
He stood back up and walked to the door. Taking one last looked before closing the door. He was still somewhat confused, mostly by his own feelings and emotions. He was partners with this man, yes, but he never...cared about another human being this much.
It was definitely odd. But, that was a thought for another night. He's tired, and now he'll have to sleep on one of the operating tables. A small price to pay for Engie to get a decent sleep. Just this once though.
I fully blame @/archiarthur for this bc their art is how I found this ship.
Good Morning, Dove - Good Mornin' - Wattpad
old man yaoi
also a ver of pyro without their mask please/nf
(The old man yaoi is forced tho/silly)
Science Party Slumber
My first ask, nice! I was gonna draw Red Oktoberfest, but remembered these two spent what they thought were their final days together doing experiments. I'll probably draw pyro maskless next time! I have to be honest, I don't really ship anyone 'cause I'm selfish and I want them all for my own and I'm a bit delulu. But the dynamics between the characters are just so MMMMMMMM so damn good. Please Valve just let me see them being friends, I want to see how they act off the field Im desperate. Also sorry about this not being the highest of quality
More of them
He was deep into the work, so he didnāt notice the door of his workshop opening, nor he heard measured steps that came closer. But, he felt the presence of another person at the moment any noise has stopped. Engineer looked up at the clock. It was 1:24 am. It's not an unusual time for him to be awake and the person behind him also knows it. Thatās probably why he still doesnāt hear anything against it, Engie only feels it, this dislike for his schedule. Quietly Hardhat mumbled about hypocrisy. Usually, he would have been convinced to let go of work already, but the urgency of the things is insane - they both know it.
- You know I need to finish this, doc
The silence has been enough of an answer. Engineer has already prepared himself for a possible argument. But it still wasn't there. He continued working, seeking for any sign of malfunction ā he spent hours on this and still ended up empty-handed. Soon after, Medic took another chair from nearby and sat on it, their knees touching. Then there was a sign, the first thing he actually heard this night from a man. Engineer felt crippling tiredness in that voice.
- Well, at least I can help.
Medic actually couldnāt, another thing they both knew perfectly. But Engineer ignored it and let him stay anyway. Even if he knew that was probably not a good thing for doc to stay awake. Medic was stubborn, when wanted. And after all, just a quiet presence of this man was enough to feel lighter. Though, he knew this calm silence would not last long and soon Medic would start rambling about everything heād done today and Engineer would be calm enough to listen just like he always does. Soon Dell would get more relaxed and start telling what he was doing, and then listen Ludwig giving honest opinion on it. But it will happen later. Right now, all that is important is a calm night, respawn upgrade that needs to be done by the morning and quiet existing of the man, whose presence was as chaotic, as calming when needed.
YOUUUUUUUUā
Hehe (ā ć¤ā ā§ā Ļā ā§ā )ā ć¤āØ
Your idea about Medic getting bridal carried by Engineer is super cute tbh
