Vice Dorm Leaders Relationship Headcanons

✧...

It's fluff time (again)

GN reader

Jade

✧...

Entertainment is one of Jade's biggest goals, above even the money he usually uses his efforts for, so from the moment he realized that you would be able to bring that to him, it becomes noticeable to you from time to time two pairs of heterochromatic eyes standing out in the shadows. Definitely as far away from a romantic beginning as possible, it also lacks romance in the way your conversations revolve around him trying to get a reaction from you. This starts to change when his hobby becomes the subject of one of your "debates", unlike his usual calmer temperament, he ends up becoming a little more expressive when it comes to his tastes, however questionable they may be, so when you pay attention to what he says, not giving the disgusted reaction he wanted, his interest goes from what you could bring to him, to you as a person. You become company instead of a way for him to pass his time, even if that doesn't mean he'll stop teasing you, but you can see a warmth in his eyes as he does it, different from before.

He finds himself wanting to know more about you, not just to facilitate future negotiations or fun, instead of just discovering your weaknesses he also wonders about your tastes, thoughts, how you feel. He doesn't care what people think of him, that's a fact, but sometimes he has doubts about how you see him, even though he knows that he may be asking himself that because he likes you, to protect his own emotions, he prefers to occupy himself with making you admit what you really think of him, whether his feelings would be reciprocated, instead of thinking about his own feelings for you, even if he likes you, he already has the habit of trying to be one step ahead of everyone in terms of knowledge. It's hard to say if he confessed to you or if he made you confess without even realizing what happened. Also because of his focus on controlling information, for a long time you will only be able to see what he wants to show, when he opens up more it wouldn't be anything so direct either, but he would leave some clues here and there about how he feels.

Although questionable, one of the ways that Jade lets you see how much he cares is by studying you, your different reactions and what causes them, it was his goals to learn these from the beginning, but now with a more romantic touch. He can't hide a seemingly evil smile from onlookers point of view when he realizes how much his range of options has increased. This study usually results in him learning your preferences to know what tactics he could use to make his gestures more meaningful to you. He tests each theory, then suddenly your hand and forehead are kissed by him one day, in the next one, you receive an invitation to a meal at Mostro Lounge, once again he does you a favor. He tries to pretend it's just out of curiosity, but for anyone who knows him, also knows that these actions have a meaning beyond that.

Because he doesn't care about other people's opinions, it's very difficult to see Jade show any embarrassed reaction, no matter how small, it's not entirely impossible, despite it being subtle. For him who takes pride in knowing your next moves before you can do anything, if you manage to surprise him, his normally colder heart warms up a little. Taking initiative and being the person who initiates any physical touch also works, although rarely, but generally the most efficient method is the one that involves his hobby. From you offering to accompany him on mountain hiking, to you mentioning to him a species of mushrooms that you believe he has never seen before, or remembering what he said about this subject when others normally don't pay attention. It's possible, even if it's hard to see, that he would show his happiness with a genuine smile instead of a scary one, telling you what he really likes about you, not just to try to make you embarrassed as a result or squeezing your hand a little tighter if he was holding it.

Ruggie

✧...

Maybe he would have already tried to give you a birthday present to get something in return or offered help so he could negotiate with you in the future, but if you want to offer help without any conditions, he will deny it. For you to provide support, it would have to be more discreet, asking for super simple favours in return that don't involve money, pretending that these are important to you, or helping him from behind the scenes. He is very intelligent, so he would eventually realize your true intentions at one time or another, but even after he finds out, he is confused about why he doesn't want you to stop, even though he is worried that one day he will have to return the favors if you charge him for it, he really doesn't want it to stop, both for the help and also because he knows how much he enjoys talking to you.

He would try to do more things for you as you got closer and his feelings became more romantic in nature, but that doesn't mean it would happen in a direct way, at least at first. Because of how he hides his emotions to protect himself, as he deals with several different students, but also because of his inferiority complex about being a hyena beastmen, he doesn't know if he would "offend" you if he showed any interest, even if he would never admit it was for that reason. He ends up using the same tactics as you at the beginning, subtly helping you, trying to keep you from noticing or asking for ridiculously simple favors in return. It takes time for him to confess his feelings for you, but it happens at one time or another, even if he maintains his mischievous attitude, it is visible how he becomes more shy around you, noticeable even to his laziest senior, who gives the last necessary push, so indirectly that not even Ruggie realized it. From the moment you two are together, he tells you everything with ease, since you are now part of his group of people that are important to him, trusting you completely.

In addition to supporting you in whatever you need, another way Ruggie shows affection is through physical touch. All of his actions are practically calculated so as not to owe anyone a favor, in a scenario like this it's hard to believe that he is used to showing vulnerability, except to a smaller group of people, so as he starts to trust you more, he also shows that he wants a greater physical proximity to you, even letting you touch one of his insecurities, his ears, as it is proof of his hyena-like physical features, it shows how much he considers you. After a while you wouldn't even need to take initiative anymore, since it would be obvious when he wants that special attention, because he surrounds you and stares at you all day, even if he tries to avoid being noticed, normally he can't hide it.

Ruggie takes a long time to trust someone, so when he finally ends up allowing someone he doesn't consider family to join this group of his special people, after being very selective, he is completely lost. Used to not letting real emotions show, it's difficult to notice when he's embarrassed about something, but it happens more often than you might think, especially when you help him or during the most innocent physical touch. Even if your cooking skills can't reach even Lilia's (as difficult as that is to happen) he would eat with a huge smile, he would try to hide it for the rest of the day, but some happy laughs escape when he remembers the meal you prepared for him, especially if they were donuts. Even the privilege of touching his ears, he pretends to be a reward for you, but his red face and smile say otherwise.

Jamil

✧...

It's meaningful to him that he met you organically and without any influence from Kalim, even if it was a strong bump as he walked quickly, worried as always. For Jamil, that all daily activities, from hobbies to even acquaintances, happened because of the space that Kalim takes in his life, meeting you spontaneously one day, despite it being uncomfortable for someone who plans and loves to have control in any situation , it was also somewhat satisfying for him, yet his presentation was short and calculated, as he immediately had to go back to what he was doing before talking to you. He continues to wear the mask while interacting with you, but he can't deny that he has fun, as he finally has a place where he doesn't have to remember who he is and the responsibilities that come with it.

For a long time he keeps his feelings to himself, even though he knows he feels something more for you because of how much he daydreams thinking about what he would do if he could say what he really thinks. He ends up confessing after you mention that he received an invitation to go to a party from Kalim. Just like the rest of emotions, he keeps to himself as much as he can until it all comes out at once, this wasn't much different, it was in the botanical garden that the words started to come out due to the shock of perhaps losing your company out of pure fear of doing something, not an ounce of regret after it happens, since even with his efforts to do otherwise, you saw who he really is and the title he was forced to carry, to his surprise, you accepted him, even before he achieved the freedom he so desires. You would have to be perceptive and try to think beyond what he says, since he tries to disguise even the things he likes, with the trust he acquires for you and the time you spend together, it naturally becomes easier to see what he really thinks about everything.

He knows what it's like to not have the time and freedom to do everything he likes because of the obligations he has, so he subconsciously tries to lighten your responsibilities, but not because he thinks you're incapable or irresponsible, he does it because he wants to ease the weight on your shoulders, he understands what it's like to not have time for yourself, so he doesn't want you to go through the same situation. Besides trying to fit you into his busy schedule, another way to see how much he cares is by paying attention to how he plans everything just to have a moment alone with you, instead of saving that time to spend alone as he would prefer before, now when he thinks about a relaxing time, you are automatically included in what he would consider calming, so he ends up calling you. He also tries to demonstrate his skills more while you are around, rather than holding back.

Jamil feels embarrassed easily, even if he tries not to show it, but prominent among the options of what to do to please him is reinforcing his independence. Throughout his life he has had to repress his own desires, so when you make it clear that you value his thoughts and emotions and want to listen to them before any decision involving him, even if he didn't take the initiative to tell you if you asked him, it would be an important moment for him, regardless of how many times it happened. Another way to make him more shy is to praise his skills honestly, he is already used to having to give fake praise, so he easily recognizes when someone is being genuine, in seconds you would no longer be able to see his face, which would be being covered with his hood.

Trey

✧...

Because of his role, he ends up meeting a lot of new people frequently, including you, but you stand out because you offer help instead of just asking for it, despite the students habit of questioning whether each action has ulterior motives, no one is made of steel, and even though he tries to diminish it to outsiders, the weight of his responsibilities is huge, so along with his down-to-earth personality, his tiredness also influences his temptation to accept the extra help. He gets used to your presence, to the point that if you're absent, even if it's just a few minutes late, it's enough for him to feel more worried. As the days go by, your name is practically replaced by the title of cook's assistant in the conversations of other students, who begin to wonder if the relationship between the two of you is not so platonic, due to the way he looks at you and the amount of time you two spend together.

For Trey, who avoids conflicts and negative emotions to the point of reaching catastrophic results, this habit is also perpetuated in positive emotions. Because he is reserved and patient, he justifies his actions to himself by stating that just spending time with you is already enough for him, that he has a long way to go before he decides to care about these things. He insists on holding back even when it is visible in his eyes that he is capable of having ambition, wanting something more, or the hint of jealousy that he feels every time your attention shifts from him to your friends while you two are together, since secretly he puts a lot of effort into having that free space in his schedule to see you. Regardless of whether his emotions started slowly overflowing, or if you had to take control of the situation, already in the relationship it is easy to see his effort to express himself more, even if the negative side still appears less than the others in your conversations as you get to know each other better.

As expected, one of the ways Trey shows affection is like a grandmother, feeding those he loves, but beyond that he tries to be romantic in other more conventional ways, even if it ends up being super awkward, because he gets totally lost. Despite his dedication, it's hilarious how his attitudes are more romantic when he's not trying, from making you breakfast, offering to help carry whatever you're holding, opening doors for you, giving your hands a massage at the end of classes while holding them, even planning the dates he could have with you every time he visits a new place that he imagines to your liking. Practically the opposite of when he tries to do something, mainly because the results involve him getting stuck, not getting a decent compliment out of his mouth, almost falling over himself, and the list goes on from bad to worse. Because of his failed attempts, he tries to show how much he cares when he shows you anything other than the image of a normal person that he normally tries to maintain, from pranks, to showing how tired his responsibilities make him.

Trey doesn't show his emotions so easily, even when he's embarrassed in a lot of different situations, by spending more time with him you realize the meaning behind his hand on the back of his head or the way he smiles differently than usual. He underestimates himself and hides the areas in which he stands out to be an ordinary student, so much so that he left it to be misunderstood by others that his magic could only change the flavor of things, despite what he could actually do. Trey is another one who becomes more shy when others see through his intentions and praise the skills he has, drawing attention to what he would like to hide for convenience or because he finds it shameful. But what could be more meaningful for him would be receiving any care from you, since a large part of his responsibilities involve taking care of others, so that he has an easier school life, even when he starts giving you this special attention, but now for other purposes, helping you because he really cares about your well-being, it is still surprising for him to receive any small percentage of those efforts back, your efforts to help him could have been happening from the beginning, but it is much more meaningful to him now that he's sure it's genuine.

Lilia

✧...

Being as friendly and spontaneous as he is, it doesn't take long for you to end up talking, even if it's more one-sided pranks than you talking to each other at first. Because he has to protect someone as his duty and objective, he pays attention to every detail, and by chance you became one of his favorites, he stops to pay attention more, trying to interact with you daily because it's fun for him. At first it's more superficial, because despite being outgoing, he keeps his feelings private to himself, but the closer you get, the more he lets you see not only the teasing and jokes, but also the thinking behind them. Even though he's old, he's been busy taking care of practically three children, so it takes a while to realize his own emotions, when you realize the pranks went from him just appearing out of nowhere for a rose to appear in your hand, or how the scares he tries to give to you went from two magenta eyes suddenly appearing in front of you, to your favorite food appearing in your hand (since this is fluff and not angst, he bought it rather than preparing it, so your survival is guaranteed). He doesn't even realize that he is increasingly using what he has learned about you to take better care of you, nor does he see how this is different from how he treats others.

He thinks and feels much more than he lets on, even if he is attracted to you romantically, he may try to hide it, whether due to the responsibilities he carries, such as raising his children, but also his concern about not letting his position harm you. His focus goes from avoiding possible problems and heartbreaks to enjoying the time he has with you as much as he can, it's not the first time he's had to feel the concept of one living less time than the other, but it takes longer for him to change his mind about not getting so close to you, not only because of past experiences, but also because of the impression that with you he has the option of not showing the depth of his emotions, unlike while raising a child. He is completely capable of never saying how he really feels about you beyond pranks to protect you, so he would need you to take initiative to change that. Any negative emotions and experiences are kept secret from you by Lilia for a long time even though you are already in a relationship, as he feels pressured to make the time you two have together as perfect as possible, because it is shorter and he values it a lot, but it's nothing that your dedication to know more about him can't overcome, because even if he tries to avoid it, his weakness is to give in to your wishes, because deep down he would like to show more of himself to you, but also because he cares about what you want.

With his special combination of archaic and present knowledge, any attempt at romance coming from him ends up being this mix of an elderly couple's marriage and a common teenage couple. You receive flowers and letters, but you are also invited to play video games with him or spontaneously go out at night with him, to visit different places that are impossible to believe they exist since they are so beautiful, the places of which you two visit the most are the ones that have a great view of the sky, especially to see the moon at night. Even pranks have gained even more adorable factors, now being not just the surprise itself but also the kisses on the cheek that come with it.

Having lived such a long life, it is harder to bring up new things or tricks to make him more shy, but it is still possible through a little study. Researching the way people in his homeland express affection and putting some of it into practice with him, seeing the way he acts and trying to copy some of his pranks to scare him, even if they don't work, and trying to find out what he likes by asking others, brings the element of surprise necessary for you to see another side of him. Also when you try to cook something healthy, or offer to help him cook so you can spend more time with him, it makes him smile more every second that passes by on the clock, his face a little pinker thinking about the memories he has created with you.

Rook

✧...

Why he started talking to you is unknown, not only to the other students, but also to yourself. Was it beauty? Personality? Any specific talents? It's difficult to pinpoint exactly what created the first drops of curiosity that would later become a great interest in you, even he didn't really understand why, but it was probably the combination of all your traits that was responsible for leaving him intrigued. Even if he is curious, he keeps his distance for a while with only an idealized version of you in his mind, due to his tendency to admire people from afar, but as he gets to know you better instead of being disappointed, he is surprised at how much he finds reality even better than he imagined.

Even though he talks a lot, Rook doesn't reveal much about himself, even to those close to him. Admiration for you is easy for him to admit, but opening up and explaining how his emotions from idolizing you ended up moving towards a more romantic side as the two of you started interacting more, is much harder to come by. In theory, he would do well with romance because of the poetic way he sees love, but revealing other sides of himself is crucial in a relationship and he is very hesitant about it. As much as he usually doesn't hold back words, whether good or bad, those that reveal something more don't come out so easily, they just reverberate in his thoughts while his eyes follow you more and more. Even after reaching the point where his feelings are practically completely visible, it still takes a lot of patience and persistence to hear anything more personal than beautiful words, over time they become more expository of what is behind them, even if they keep being really poetic.

Him telling you his feelings is already a great romantic gesture in itself, due to his desire to keep almost everything private, but for Rook who is so devoted to those he admires, other ways of expressing the affection he has for you end being even more dramatic than expected. From taking you out on a boat at night under an ocean of stars, offering to do a painting with you as a model, telling you everything he liked about you almost daily, even what you didn't like about yourself. Of all the ways he could be romantic, the way he uses the most is words, so even if you were already doing something special, like an outdoor picnic, he would still say words that were more beautiful than the flowers around you both.

When Rook finds it necessary or gets emotional, just like when he saw Neige, he ends up revealing more about himself, so seeing a slight blush on his cheeks is difficult because of how alert he is, but not impossible. To achieve this feat there are two ways available, one is to distract him using the help of someone he admires to surprise him if you wanted to prepare something bigger, or another efficient method is to simply act in a way he is not used to seeing. Since he tries to memorize your mannerisms, when he sees an unexpected side of you, completely out of what would be expected out of your personality, it would get a reaction out of him, even though he normally doesn't sound like that, he is honest, even though he tries to control how much this affected him, he won't try so hard to hide from you.

Dorm Leaders Relationship Headcanons

✧... I'm a sucker for fluff, so the sexiest thing here is emotional closeness

GN reader

Leona

✧...

You were probably the first to approach the apathetic lion, as long as your voice is not deafening or has not interrupted one of his thousands of daily naps, it is possible that he will respond to you normally, despite having a tendency to be the listener in your conversations. Naturally you would take up more space in his life, conversations shifting to you two playing chess together, until you notice Ruggie offering assistance when really needed (perhaps being paid by someone?) or "conveniently" Leona's nap spots would be closer to the places you usually pass by. Slowly he would become a more active participant in your interactions.

For him to have the motivation to enter a relationship with you, he would already have to trust you a lot. Even though he may have opened up a little when he expressed romantic feelings for you, it takes longer for him to feel more comfortable expressing his deepest frustrations and negative emotions. It would take less time than admitting interest in you, since he already knows you well, that you would listen without judgement. He would express himself in a direct way, talking more about the events he experienced than his feelings towards them, as if they had nothing to do with him, in the future he would express how the situation affected him, rather than just what happened.

Even though his cuddle sessions are already a form of big cat affection for you, another way he shows this is by spending time with you. For someone who hates and runs away from everything that seems like a bother, actively seeking out your company, it's obvious that he cares about you. This happens in a subtle way, you find yourself meeting him more frequently, perhaps even receiving an invitation to go to the botanical garden, even if it is with the excuse of bringing him something.

He is a reserved person, but he is not against holding you by the waist or shoulders in public, but it would be much more difficult for him to kiss you in public, basically everything sweet that he considers vulnerable is reserved for only when you two are alone. He doesn't show much shame, except when you say what you admire about him without a doubt and directly, not giving him an opportunity to reverse the situation and make you shy, he doesn't show it much, but for those who know him, the difference is noticeable. Another way to get this reaction would be by showing that you pay attention to him, his health, his accomplishments, the small details, he is already used to being overlooked, so these moments end up being special to him.

Azul

✧...

There's a high chance that he approached you because of his interest in making a contract with you, or at least that's what he told himself. Persistent in improving his business, his attempts to talk to you are practically daily, but little by little they move away from his original idea, becoming more about ordinary everyday matters than negotiations. Despite this, a certain octopus refuses to admit why he keeps talking to you, even without a contract in the works, and that it's obvious that his interest is genuine this time. If you don't notice the changes in the way he interacts, you'll end up noticing the shadows of two tall eels passing by you frequently, or the "luck" you've been having in getting promotions at a certain restaurant.

Presumably you would end up discovering Azul's true emotions before even entering into a relationship with him, perhaps due to Jade and Floyd's need for entertainment that you find yourself being invited to the Mostro Lounge after closing, having more privacy. More and more opportunities come up for him to teach you how to play the piano, help you with your studies, or have a meal with just the two of you (if you ignore the other two watching from the corner of the room). With this, you end up seeing other sides of the octopus, the effort he puts into studying, due to the amount of notes he has, his face while he plays the piano that doesn't show his usual arrogance, or the more shy way he acts while you have dinner together. Even if he remains in denial for a long time, in the end he will realize that there is no way to ignore that his interest in you has become more romantic rather than commercial, vulnerability is gradually emerging and contracts appear less and less in front of you, even if he still insists that that's why you're there.

For someone who values money so much, him being willing to spend part of it on you, even after all his daily effort to make a profit, shows how much he really cares about you. Him letting you see who he really is in every way, to be honest, is the greatest demonstration of his affection, but in everyday life this dedication appears in small gifts. Maybe he will deliver some in person during your dates, but the most significant ones will appear in your backpack or room, it wouldn't take long for you to find out who it was since there would be at least two people willing to tell you even without being asked.

The most affection he shows in public would be holding your hand, at least while you are getting to know each other better, since any other type of affection ends up getting a bigger reaction from him, so it ends up not happening, due to his desire to have a certain reputation. For a Azul to melt (or completely freeze from shock, depending on the day) just a hug would be enough, he is already used to distorting words and giving empty praise to get what he wants, so you showing the admiration you have for him just with your actions is more effective in making him feel more embarrassed.

Idia

✧...

In Ortho's search for someone worthy of his brother's friendship, his name appears on the list of possible candidates, even though he was not aware of it. You find more and more Ignihide-related tasks on your to-do list, you start to see a nickname repeating itself more frequently in some online games and even his older brother's favorite games appear on your doorstep, you and Idia started to have more things in common even if both of you didn't know it (since the same thing was happening to him, getting gifts related to your interests). A new robot friend and a suspiciously convenient situation that has caused the two of you to have your first real-life interaction. Thanks to your common interests, interactions that occur frequently as you "naturally" meet each other more, it is noticeable that you become closer, even if little by little.

Any type of relationship between the two of you happens after he trusts you 100%, so probably during your friendship, you would already be able to get to know his feelings a little better, even if he showed it more through games, music, any kind of entertainment. During a night when the two of you were watching something, wrapped in a pile of blankets, with gentle pressure from his younger brother beforehand, there would be a more direct conversation about his emotions and fears, after which he is sure that chose the right person to create a connection with.

Idia is another who shows affection by allowing you to be in his company, but in a different way. For him, feeling comfortable giving a speech about his interests to you, without worrying that you would be judging him, and wanting to include you in these same hobbies, would be very meaningful. Game nights consisting of the two of you and Ortho would become more and more constant, except when the youngest decided to play cupid, leaving the two of you alone.

Since at least at the beginning of your relationship, all the dates you have would be between four walls, without leaving the house, or you talking to a tablet outdoors, romantic actions being seen by others would not be a problem. The biggest obstacle would be for them to happen in private too, you would have to get a little closer every day, without sudden movements, as if you were introducing yourself to a cat, after a while he would get used to enough for it to happen without him going into despair. Several actions make him embarrassed, but the most significant are those that don't involve anxiety, just shyness, like you sending something saying that it reminded you of him, waiting to start a new game together or just listening to him talk about what he likes, paying attention.

Malleus

✧...

It only took a few interactions initiated by you, even if cautiously, for Malleus to start seeking your company, despite normally being alone. He was already used to being feared, despite his desire to connect with the people around him, being lonely even if admired, therefore still not understanding very well the way human beings relate to each other, his efforts to get closer of you were noticeable, even if subtle. You become closer organically, as even though your courage and avoidance of judging others by appearances and reputation have created his curiosity in you, common interests and intentions that solidify your connection. His thoughts go from intrigued about someone not fearing him to being interested in you for the way you are, personality, hobbies and the way you think, making it increasingly easier for him to start a dialogue with you.

It wouldn't take long for him to ask several questions about you, but to surprise Malleus it would only be necessary for you to do the same in return. People usually have difficulty approaching him, so it is completely unexpected that someone, in addition to having the courage to interact with him, would also want to question him to get to know him better. He wouldn't hesitate to answer your questions, but it would take longer for him to tell you on his own initiative without being asked about it first.

Malleus may not yet understand very well how relationships work, but there's nothing that Lilia's dedication and advice can't solve. About efforts: his visits are frequent despite being busy thanks to his title, he does his best to spend time with you. As for the advice, it depends on Lilia's generosity and need for entertainment that day, one day you receive a beautiful bouquet of flowers, on others you receive extensive letters or the two of you end up doing dances worthy of being in a bird mating book since someone told him that these are human traditions, but he is trying.

Even though his position is a possible obstacle, nothing stops Malleus from trying to visit you at night so the two of you can walk around campus together (in fact, at least one person tries). Due to his lack of knowledge, plus the dubious advice, any romantic gesture would also have a dubious quality at first, with a lot of patience and some conversations, he would understand better, it's not as if he didn't know anything about it, but because he thinks that the way romance works for humans is completely different, he doubts his own abilities and ends up becoming more vulnerable to pranks. To make his face a little more red, you just need to help a little with his loneliness: inviting Malleus to something you would especially like to do with him, trying to introduce him to people you consider important, basically anything that involves including him or showing pride in being close to him.

Vil

✧...

At first it was probably an unexpected help from him, seeing that you followed the steps he gave you and the efforts you made to improve, would make him think it was worth investing time in you, making your interactions more frequent . Despite the cruel words and demands, they all come from a genuine interest in helping you, even as a form of affection. In addition to new products coming to you for free, skincare sessions coming (suspiciously) when you need them most, whether due to a bad or stressful day. The closer you become, the easier it is to see the space you take up in his routine increasing, maybe even the two of you shopping together as an excuse for him to spend more time with you.

His stress is noticeable, for those who know him best it's not difficult to see that the infinite search for perfection can be tiring, the problem is getting him to admit it himself. Probably after he accumulated a lot of this stress in a completely unhealthy way, until it practically boiled over that perhaps he would be more willing to share some of it with you. It is possible that it was in one of your private self-care routines, already in a relationship that drops of frustrations would come out of him, increasingly a little of them would come out in your conversations on a daily basis, making you able to get to know him, even the not-so-perfect side.

For someone who has high expectations and demands on himself, him trying to fit you into his busy schedule, using his own expensive products on you, in addition to you being one of the only people who can touch him whenever you want (as long as you don't mess up his clothes, everything has a limit), are already a demonstration of the way Vil shows his affection. Being his favorite potato comes with some special perks, one of them would be seeing him in his most vulnerable moments, even if he rejects everything that is not ideal coming from himself, appearing in front of you even on bad days, says much more about his feelings for you than beautiful words.

Unlike the others, his reasons for not exposing himself so much in public are his own job and trying not to ruin his own makeup, but it's nothing that can't be overcomed if these displays of affection in public are important to you, Coming from Vil who gives his all to an unattainable goal, he would dedicate no little effort to making you feel loved. For him who is so used to taking care of others, when you try to do the same, it means a lot to him, of course even if you are doing his makeup when he is particularly stressed, it does not leave you immune from criticism, but it is easy to notice a redness on his face before you even apply the blush.

Kalim

✧...

Because of his outgoing and sociable personality, it doesn't matter if you don't take the initiative to talk to him first, the two of you would end up talking at one point or another anyway. It's not difficult to be his friend, but rather to be special. Maybe you were lucky enough to fall into this group, as his invitations for you to attend his parties would become more and more frequent, just as the physical touch he has with most would become more hesitant with you, even if he didn't understand why. The hardest part of all would be for him to realize the difference between his emotions for you and what he feels for others, since he loves everyone, but his intentions are not the same, it's nothing like a confession or help from someone close to him, who decided to give advice out of pity.

With Kalim, the problem was not getting to know him better, but rather the situation being taken seriously. He might say the most horrendous things he's been through with a smile on his face, even if when you opened up he'd burst into tears. It would be necessary for you to demonstrate an interest in treating these matters more seriously, for him to take the initiative. Although always seeing the positive side of things is a quality, it is impossible to deny the negative side of things, and the impact that this negative side has on thoughts and emotions, which are important to get to know someone more deeply.

If it were up to him, the two of you would be stuck together for most of the day, hugs are already constant in his platonic relationships, this practically triples when he realized that his romantic feelings for you were mutual. Many compliments come your way, regardless of whether the task you did was simple or not, especially at the dance lessons he uses as an excuse to spend more time with you. And a huge amount of daily gifts, there's that too.

If physical touch and displays of affection in public are not a problem for you, congratulations, you just got a new human-shaped backpack, since most of the time you will be stuck together like that. But if that doesn't seem pleasant to you, all you would have to do is express it to Kalim directly for him to give you more space, even if he made up for it in gifts, everything you look at is yours now. Even though he is a friendly and outgoing person, he is still a human being capable of feeling all emotions, so even he is capable of feeling shy. These rare moments usually happen when you give him a handmade gift, he is aware that your time and money are more limited compared to his, so your attempt to reciprocate is completely unexpected, if not shame, it is definitely tears that come after the gesture.

Riddle

✧...

Perhaps one of the reasons for you to be included in Riddle's life is your friends' impulsiveness and inability to obey the rules, making your interactions with him possible and even more frequent than you would like. Because of your involvement with the rule breakers, Riddle's gaze ends up turning more and more towards you, expecting new trouble. It's almost impossible not to get close to someone you talk to every day, and he's already learned your habits and interests because of how much he stares. You are invited to tea parties with each passing day, over time they become more and more private, with just the two of you. Even if Riddle tries to claim it's just to make sure you behave, it's clear to see the special treatment you've started to receive.

It would be at a peak of stress that most of his deepest feelings would come to light, due to the intense way he expresses his emotions. A party gone wrong, many rules broken and a tart being stolen in a single day would be necessary to get to know Riddle a little better. Unlike the rest, he has less difficulty expressing negative thoughts and emotions, but it is practically impossible for him to tell you what caused them, due to the bad memories and respect he has for the person who caused them.

For him who has been repressed from experiencing many things, making a point of sharing new things in his life with you is already a sign of the favoritism he has for you. The other ways he shows affection are through doing the opposite of what he went through in childhood: breaking some rules and physical touch. Nothing too extreme, just letting you eat his tarts without asking first when you were sad, not criticizing you so much if you were late before knowing the reason why and using every fiber of the repressed being he is to hold your hand in public, in those moments that it's clear how important you are to him.

He wouldn't do anything in public other than hold your hand, both because of his desire to follow the rules and because of the redness that rivals that of a strawberry on his face. The human strawberry usually tries to be romantic more discreetly, in the form of help, but he wouldn't stop you from being more affectionate with him at least in private. Riddle being another one who values effort, would be easy to embarrass by bringing him sweets you made for him, giving his hands a massage, and arranging your schedule to see him the same way he as does for you.
