Settle The Tab, Gentlemen

Lippmann headcanons

•Lippmann’s very courteous and usually initially watches how he acts towards you, wanting to gain a good impression you can associate him with.

•He’s not doing this because he wants to deceive you— quite the opposite actually. He wants you to trust him, to make you see that he’s actually someone you can rely on despite the nature of his job that normally deceives people.

•Lippmann is good at catering to what you may want, though sometimes it may come off as excessive. If you don’t set proper boundaries, the light affection of giving gifts may turn overwhelming after some time.

•He would love it whenever you give something to him in return, it could be food you made, or maybe a handmade bracelet he would wear all day everyday once he gets it from you. Chuuya would complain about how annoying Lippmann is about it at some point, but the latter wouldn’t really be too concerned— he sings you praises behind your back.

•If you’re not a member of the mafia and knows what he’s actually doing instead of seeing just the facade he puts on for the public but refuse to turn him away or judge him, his love for you would increase tenfold. It would mean a lot to him for you to understand and still love him despite that, he’d understand too if you’re afraid. Don’t worry though, rest assured he won’t turn a blind eye to you if you’re in trouble.

•He’s surprisingly a bit shy when showing romantic gestures to you; he’s no stranger to hand holding, it puts him in a serene mood, something considerably less hectic than his lifestyle both as an actor and a mafioso.

•He’d teach you how to play billiards, he’s a gentle teacher, so you’ll be fine most games. He lets you win too— it’s a little thing that you two can bond over with together.

•He flirts lightly when teaching you too, and sometimes you both will become a subject of teasing by the other members of the flags because of this. They mean well and he knows this, and this often results in banter that everyone will laugh about for a week.

•He’s very reassuring in giving you compliments, it could be the little things really, maybe your hobby, maybe your hair, maybe the way you speak or your eyes. He’s very smooth about it, seamless in delivery.

•Lippmann would kiss you under the light of a lamp post either at dusk or very early in the morning before he departs from you for a job. He covers your kiss away from the eyes of others with the small book he often carries with him, the kiss being sweet and brief, before he gives you a beautiful smile and looks at you with adoration and then leaving.

•When you’re sad, he will let you talk it out while hugging you. As a negotiator, he’s a very good listener and remembers almost every single detail that you told him— he thinks it’s important, a good way to know more about you and he feels that you spilling your sadness for his ears to hear has a degree of intimacy to it. He takes it as you trusting him with your feelings. He’s more than happy to keep your secrets.

Iceman hcs:

•He’s normally cold demeanor wise, always out lighting a cigarette anywhere whenever he can and whenever he feels like he needs to.

•He does it when he’s with you, playing music in some old phonograph he thought looked nice in his small living room with a stack of books he likes to read. He relaxes in your presence.

•Iceman intends to make things easier for you, he’s a bit avoidant that way; more so in the sense that he wants no trouble with you, and he makes that clear, always, speaking to you a lot gentler than he would the group of mafiosi he got dragged in.

•Iceman doesn’t mind your touch, he reciprocates it, but a bit more subtle than others would. When you walk together, he places you away from where the road would be, a hand to your back, as if to ready himself to protect you if he needs to.

•Iceman’s love is patient and warm, a stark contrast to his nickname and demeanor. He would never hurt you, and he will always be there for you when you need someone to ground you to reality. His comfort comes in warm, heavy palms on your shoulder, a stare to your eyes, and telling you to breathe with him if you’re in a state of being frantic.

•Iceman is willing to do anything for you, caring not for how much effort he would have to exert to get you what you may need, or what you may want. He’s no stranger to breaking into facilities and stealing files if you need him to, or killing people for you (though he would rather not tell you this, knowing it is much better for you not to be exposed to further violence more than you already have in association with him).

•It could be simple things too, Iceman is not a complicated man. He could get you flowers that reminds him of you, or a book you may want to read, or a scarf when he takes note of the weather.
