The Cake -FatherFigure!Elrond

(Requested by someone on Tumblr :Hi I just came across your blog and your writing is so good! It's really cute! Can I request a one-shot of Fatherfigure!Elrond x human!reader. You can choose the details I just adore this dynamic and the doc you have posted of it is just so cute I love it💛 thank you, hope you are safe and well

Author's Notes: bibiiiii I'm sorry it took so long 😭😭 got busy with some stuff this past few days and I really tried to write but this actually went so many changes qjckwkckwk I hope this is what you have in mind. Elrond's family dynamic, in my opinion, is different in Thranduil's in a sense that Elrond plays along with mischief while Thranduil is the one who starts the mischief 😂 I also tried to put in the little things that make the reader human but I couldn't think how to put the background story how the reader came to the care of Elrond so I'll leave it up to you guys huehuehue thank you so much and I hope you are doing good as well!

Pairings: FatherFigure!Elrond X Human!Reader, Brother!Elladan & Brother!Elrohir X Human!Reader, Sister!Arwen X Human!Reader, MotherFigure!Celebrian X Human!Reader

Warnings: none I guess?)

These elves will never understand you.

Of course they wouldn't. They can go on for days without sleep. Food is essential but they can survive longer without it.

You? Goodness, you looked like death no matter if you were sleep-deprived or if you'd slept until noon. Sometimes you'd feel so tired, sometimes you'd have trouble going to sleep. There were times that even though you've just eaten a meal, you'd be craving for something else. Or you'd look for something to eat even if the time for eating has already passed.

They'll never understand why you were up at midnight, making your way to the pantry to look for some cake. Oh no, they wouldn't understand the need to eat something sweet at that moment. That's why, as quietly as someone of the Race of Men living among Elves could, you walked down the corridors and stairs with a very important mission.

The moment you arrived at the pantry, you didn't waste any time and looked immediately for the cake. It was served at dinner earlier but you saw it was unfinished and you remembered how delicious it was. You were lucky and it was stowed away in a place that was easily accessible to you. You took it and got a fork, a knife, and a plate. Cutting a big slice (no, there was no intention of being discreet, maybe you'll pass the blame to Elladan tomorrow), you then sat on the table and happily ate to your heart's content.

But that didn't last long. You were about to get your second slice when you noticed someone standing by the door. You froze and slowly looked their way. With a guilty smile, you met the Lord of Rivendell's eyes.

"I-I can explain!" you stammered.

Elrond made his way towards you and you tried to come up with a better explanation than just simply breaking into the pantry and finishing the cake that Lord Elrond was also very fond of.

His expression was unfathomable and you braced yourself to be scolded.

But he then walked to the cabinets, took a plate and a fork, walked back to you, and raised an eyebrow.

"The only explanation you have to give me is the reason why you did not call me to accompany you here in the first place," Elrond said.

You heaved a sigh of relief. "I would have fetched you but I knew I would have woken up Nana with how heavy my footsteps are."
