This is actually one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE ships. There's hardly anything written for them, though. ...I need to remedy this.

Couldn't resist the RWBY reference here.

Title: Bare Talent

Pairing: Gray x Meredy

Requester: boogey56

Prompt: Grayedy, "Winter Olympics AU"


Meredy rubbed Gray's shoulders, helping to ease some of the tension in them before his big jump. The man was would up so tight, she was surprised he hadn't jumped ten feet in the air at her touch. "You got this," she whispered in his ear, trying to psyche him up.

"I don't got this," he replied. "Something always goes wrong at the last second. I think it's Flame Brain - he loves messing with me so much his mere presence does the trick."

The pink-haired woman rolled her viridian eyes at him. Really. He couldn't just blame everything on Natsu. To be fair, he could blame most things on their mutual friend and Gray's rival. But not everything. "Gray, you'll be fine. You've trained all year, your technique is solid, and Ultear barely yells at you anymore!" Giving him a push, she commanded, "Now go win us the gold!"

He cracked a half-smile at her and nodded, before heading towards his designated start point.

It was only after she heard the shrieks further down the hill, that Meredy noticed the clothes pooled on the snow beside her.

Meredy covered her face with her hands and let out a quiet sob, as the announcer's voice rang out, "That certainly was something, folks! Is this a new form in the sport of skiing? I wonder if it makes you more aerodynamic? Either way, I hope the television folks managed to blur that out in time for you viewers at home!"


Fun fact, being naked really does improve your aerodynamics (a little). I do not, however, recommend trying it. At all.
