    Summary

    Vik loves physical affection but wishes he could initiate it as easily as everyone else does, both on and off-camera. Whenever Vik tries, it always comes off as too distant and aloof, so he just doesn’t try anymore. Definitely a problem, as it’s his source of comfort, it helps him regulate, and it’s how he processes the world. He just needs practice, really, with someone who knows he’ll be awkward and won’t judge him for it.

    So when Harry notices and offers to be his “cuddle buddy”, Vik accepts it without a second thought. But being affection buddies with his years-long crush without falling for him will – well, it probably won’t be possible, but Vik can damn well try.

    After all, Harry’s so openly affectionate with everyone that if he loved Vik back he surely would have said something by now, right?

    Or: Vik craves physical affection but doesn’t know how to initiate it. Harry helps by being his cuddle buddy (and more).
