#corvus headcanons

walked back and forth until you came back 

it was the one time he snapped at you 

seeing you ready to faint, covered in your own blood but still not calling for help ; he saw red 

told you how unreasonable you were, but mostly how it was making him worry to death 

you ignore each other for a week after that 

but you began to be more careful

he's glad, but he won't stop making sure you're not going too far 

he can't take the risk of losing you 

Zanka

doesn't really notice at first 

thinks you're strong and cool and he's freaking out 

but he's quick to realise 

trash beasts don't bleed so how are you always covered in it? 

the moment he gets it, he's always behind you 

acts cool and nonchalant when you're looking his way 

but his eyes never lets you out of sight 

doesn't say much about it, he knows you wouldn't care 

it's your way of helping with what you have, he understands that 

but don't expect him to let you go on a mission without him 

you're a team now, and he won't let you down 

the day he saw you fell unconscious after a fight, his mind got blank 

the world disappeared around him and he realised you might too if you kept going like this 

since that, he's extra careful without telling you anything 

but you won't fall again on his watch 

Riyo

she might be a little crazy but there's no way she lets you get harm on purpose 

at least not alone 

be sure to have her joining your side the moment your knife is out 

a smile on her lips, her scissors in hand, looking at you 

“let’s go get them” and with that, you're both in the heart of the fight

each time she's seeing your blood out, she goes feral against your enemies of the day 

she lets your wounds get healed by someone else but she's here the whole time 

you need someone to check on it? don't worry she's right here 

she would never ask you to stop or be careful or anything like this 

she'll do it for you 

she's never curious about how your jinki ended up being this 

just like you're never asking about her past 

you are just the two of you, in your current states, together 

and she would trade this for nothing

Tamsy

doesn't like the idea at all 

you getting hurt is the last thing he wants ; especially if you do it to fight 

doesn't want you to fight anyway, he's here for that, he can protect you more than enough 

but it's not like you care, so you do it anyway 

sweet the first times he talked about it to you, he wants you to understand it's not good 

but he's some crazy man, so don't expect him to keep the sweet side for too long

no yelling, just a warning, silent and discreet

catch you off guard because he's never like this usually 

makes you think twice before using your jinki after this 

but there was this one time where you didn't have any other choice ; it was this or getting killed 

you expected him to snap at you but he didn't at all 

in fact, he helped you out with your wounds 

but the moment you're not with him anymore? he's like a mad man 

finds the one responsible for this and makes him pay 

keeps him alive of course, death would be too sweet 

no one hurt what he cares for, not even yourself 

Corvus

the most serious and rational about this 

sure he wants you to be careful, and he always repeats it 

but he also need to fight of course 

he lets you join the cleaners while being aware of what your jinki was 

checks on you every time after a mission 

it's a ritual by now, it's almost like you go to his office even before getting healed 

you can't hide anything from him so you tell him everything about what happened 

sometimes he scolds you for pushing yourself too far 

but there's always a thank 

he's glad to have you helping them even if it can be dangerous for you 

yet he's never letting you too much out of his sight 

he can't come on mission Enjin’s eyes are his own to be sure it's never getting out of hand 

he got eyes everywhere 

even if he's proud you're on his side, he's not letting you die for that 

he's doing this for very important reasons, but not more important than your life

☆★ TAMSY CAINES

★ I honestly don't know what his first reaction would be, he's just so hard to figure out, but I do think he would be surprisingly chill about it

☆ Would wanna try to figure out what's wrong so he knows if he has to kill someone (he will do it, you're the most important person in his life, anything to make you happy)

★ I don't feel like he would be very touchy, he'd probably sit beside you, close but far enough to let you have some space just so you don't feel crowded. He values his own personal space so he hates invading that of others, even with his partner - only stays close if you initiate.

☆ The type to try and distract you. Will put on some music (silently ofc so he doesn't wake up the whole HQ), talk to you about random stuff once he knows what's up

★ Also I feel like his reaction would differ based on WHERE you're crying, like, still in bed with him and he wakes up next to you crying? He immediately fears for his life because it makes him think you're crying because of him. If you've gotten up and cried somewhere else? He's ready to punch a bitch.

> Soft, almost inaudible sniffles fill the room as you sit on the small couch in the far corner from Tamsy's bed. You'd hate to wake him up, especially since you know he's a light sleeper, and since you have no clue why you're even crying. Everything just... got too much all of a sudden. It kept you awake, and now here you are, nestled up on your boyfriend's couch, crying like a wuss. "... You're horrible at keeping quiet, by the way." You almost yelp as Tamsy speaks, sitting down beside you - it's almost scary how silent he can be. "Something wrong? Did somebody hurt you?" The blonde questions gently, keeping his voice down because the HQ walls seem to have ears, no matter what time of day. "No... just... I don't know.." You sniffle, wiping stray tears with the back of your hand. "Very insightful." Tamsy sighs, and you almost laugh at his deadpan expression. He leans over, hair falling over his shoulders as he turns on his radio, silent classical music filling the room. "D'you wanna talk?" He then questions, tilting his head at you gently, eyes taking you in as if he's still wondering if anyone could be at fault for making you feel like this. "...can we just sit for a while..? This is nice..." you just hum, leaning against his side gently. "Of course." Tamsy replies softly, pressing a kiss against the top of your head.

★☆ ENJIN

☆ Absolutely out of his element, has no clue what to do, a bit useless really. He has no idea how to deal with emotions, not even his own ones, so dealing with someone else's is absolute horror to him

★ tries to cheer you up, but its clumsy. He makes jokes he makes all the time - ones you usually laugh at, even if only cause you love him. If that doesn't work, he just sits there staring at you, not sure what else to do

☆ will let you use him as a personal tissue, no questions asked, no complaints muttered. His shirt is drenched from your tears? Doesn't even matter. As long as it helps you, he lets you do anything and everything.

★ takes some time to wake up, you cannot convince me he doesn't sleep like a rock. Would probably not wake up from you crying but from getting cold cause you aren't there to warm his side anymore (he's a human furnace but he still gets cold, no idea how he's just extra like that)

☆ Awkward touches on your shoulder, maybe runs his fingers through your hair but he isn't sure if you're okay with touching in your state - if you initiate contact, he's doing the whole arms wrapped around you like an anchor thing, 10/10 hugs

> You freeze up in horror as you notice Enjin shifting, grumbling in his sleep as you sit at the edge of the bed, tears still streaming down your face. "Darlin'? It's cooolldd..." He huffs, rolling on his side before opening his eyes. He's about to complain more as he takes in your expression - eyes wide and red. He almost starts panicking as you sniffle again. "Oh, shit." He mumbles just as your tears start flowing fully again. Enjin sits up, staring at you crying like he's completely lost, wide-eyed like a puppy. He's panicking more on the inside, trying to remember what Gris told him about calming people down as you already lean into him, your face pressing against his shoulder. Without hesitation, Enjin wrapped his arms around you, pulling you into his lap, securely keeping you right there against him. "Hey... is there.. like... can I do anything...?" He mumbles awkwardly, rocking you back and forth. He doesn't even really realise that he's doing it, his body just moves on its own. "...just this is great.." you mutter, voice awfully muffled against Enjins now soaked shirt. "Okay.." He sighs, resting his head atop yours, just staying exactly the same until you calm down.

☆★ ARKHA CORVUS

★ Chillest mf alive. Light sleeper so he immediately notices when you get up, but he waits because at first he just thought you'd get up to drink something. Once you start crying, he gets up and just casually makes a tea.

☆ Let's you vent your frustrations to him, listening intently. He knows that you dont need advice, and that you just need to be a hater sometimes, let's you do just that. You call someone a bitch? Hell yeah that person's a bitch. He agrees. 100%.

★ Makes you rest your head in his lap as if he's your personal therapist. I mean, he doesn't force you, but the offer is just so nice you can't refuse (he sits down and glances between you and his lap. He (doesn't) try to be sneaky)

☆ Runs his fingers through your hair, gently running his nails over your scalp, that good kind of scratching, really just relaxes you all over

★ sips his tea, offers you some, and just helps you calm down and get sleepy enough for bed again. Carries you back and keeps you tucked against his chest the whole night, completely safe and cozy

> You know he's awake. Its not a question of whether or not Arkha Corvus is awake, its a question of when he gets up. Still, you can't help the tears building in your eyes and the sobs threatening to spill over. At the slightest noise, Corvus is already on his feet, humming gently as he heats up water. It never fails to amaze you how composed this man is. "Wanna talk about it?" He asks as he sits down next to you, chuckling as you immediately rest your head in his lap. "It's just- ugh, its so stupid actually-" you start, yapping out everything that's going wrong, going on and on while Corvus just listens. At some point his hand finds its way into your hair, gently playing with it as he hums and nods along. He really just sits there, drinking tea, listening to your pathetic reasoning for crying in the middle of the night like it's not completely stupid. He actually agrees with you, nodding strongly when you complain about others. It's not even long before you're just exhausted, wanting to get back to bed. "Cmere then." Corvus smiles, easily scooping you up.

★☆ GRIS RUBION

☆ The sweetest. Gives you everything and anything you could need. Hugs? He's there. Just need someone to listen? Yap away. Need someone to cry into? He doesn't mind at all, go ahead.

★ honestly a 10/10 when it comes to stuff like this. He's a bit tired, but immediately aware of the situation, yawning softly as he pats over to you, wrapping himself around you like a huge emotional support teddy.

☆ Smothers you in affection even the day after, makes sure you're fine all the time and that nothing overwhelms you.

★ soft kisses all over your face, especially your cheeks to kiss away the tears. Makes it impossible to keep crying because he then starts to lick the tears to make you laugh, for being so sweet, he isn't afraid to be silly to help you out.

☆ Like Corvus, he would carry you back to bed, cuddling you close to him. In all honesty you probably didnt even get to leave bed because his hold on you is that strong even when he's asleep (he was scared that he hurt you and thats why you're crying at first though, just because he sometimes forgets his own strength)

> Gris yawns heavily as he slowly wakes from his slumber, completely content with you still coddled up in his arms — shaking. Crying? Ah he fucked up. "Love? What's wrong?" He mumbles, loosening his grip on you instinctively. He tugs you to turn around, facing him, watching your face. You sob out a few words, enough to let him know its not his fault. Gris sighs, pressing a kiss against your forehead. "Shh.. its okay... this happens... just let it out, yeah..?" He mutters, voice soft as he continues his kisses, gentle against your skin. He lets you catch your composure, listening to your broken explanations, nodding along as his grip on you tightens again, pulling you slightly closer. He presses one last kiss against your lips once you finally calm down, nudging his nose against yours. "..you wanna stay up or do you wanna sleep?" He asks, unable to hold back a slight yawn as he grins at you. "... you're sleepy, we should sleep." You mumble back, exhausted from the crying as you snuggle back against Gris. He's more than happy to comply, arms wrapped around you tightly as he presses his face into your neck - his favourite place to be.

bro ; sweet, a bit rugged, comforting, and clearly loved by dear.

he smells like he's been in a warm kitchen all day, thanks to how often he's picking up and giving a big hug to dear. fresh cookies blend with the smell of cinnamon and salted caramel, cozy and warm. sandalwood is smooth and creamy as well, his natural musk just making him smell manly and strong. and with how often he's working on his beloved car, he's always gonna have that lingering scent of motor oil stuck on his hands.

tamsy ; sitting next to an open window on a nice, breezy day with a cup of mint tea.

literally, he smells like simple, quiet luxury. the mint is cooling and only makes the scent of green tea feel fresh and earthy in the best ways. orange blossom adds an extra touch of citrus, blending with the high quality fabrics of the sweaters and blankets he uses. and of course, the incense he lights always sticks to him, a relaxing, tranquil smell.

gris ; refined and cool, definitely smells like a craftsman with a soft and gentle side.

he smells like an old, yet cared for workshop, honestly. the smell of leather works well with the scent of oak, sturdy, earth, and rich. toasted coconut smells nice and warm, balancing well with the eucalyptus that adds that cool, sharp scent. and the rose softens him overall, sweet and floral. just like bro, his hands and sometimes his hair get stuck with that scent of motor oil until he gets in the shower.

follo ; energetic mixing with cheerfulness, smells like what hanging with him feels like.

dorky sweetheart incarnate if it could be turned into a smell. fresh ginger paired with the cream soda give him a spicy and vanilla sweetness that you can taste. raspberry adds some juicy tartness while lime enhances the tartness with that bitter, sour scent. hibiscus adds a nice sweet, floral scent that balances out the tartness, almost like a sweet hibiscus tea.

tomme ; sweet and cute, like specially made strawberry desserts.

she literally smells like the prettiest pastry shop, the sugary scent matching her sweet, compassionate personality. she smells like vanilla and strawberry treats, creamy and warm with a fruity, syrupy accent. the marshmallow adds onto the vanilla, fluffy and comforting. freesia adds that fresh, airy fragrance that keeps it from being too warm, and the tart, sweetness of raspberry adds the perfect balance.

august ; odd yet good mix of scents from bouncing from the kitchen to his workshop.

with the amount of sweets he has, it's no wonder he manages to smell more than just fabric and glue. he always carries the scent of apple pie, baked apples, cinnamon, and pastry, he smells so yummy. the butterscotch and roasted pecans add a rich sugary smell and warm, smoky nuttiness. the scent of leather and suede still linger from how often he's in his workshop, but it still manages to smell good.

zodyl ; bold and seductive scent with an underlying feeling of danger...be careful.

he smells unbelievably good, smelling like pomegranate, all sweet and tart while the red currants that add an extra wine-like fruitiness. the amber warms his scent and that muskiness gives him a manly undertone. the grapefruit is refreshing, mixing with the faint scent of smoke, the citrus smell bitter but attractive.

jabber ; chaotic yet comforting? like the moments after a thunderstorm.

imagine being in front of a fire place while the window is open and its storming out. that's jabber, the smoky, warm smell of moroccan incense (woody, floral, and rich.) the toasted marshmallow-y scent smells like heaven, tonka bean adding to the sweet, vanilla scent with a touch of toasted almond. the vetiver adds an earthy scent that's just so him, mixing with the scent of ozone that brings in that sharp electric scent.

bundus ; sophisticated, but inviting, like an expensive lounge only VIPs can access.

smells like what he looks like, old yet refined. the smell of the dried tobacco leaves and cedar from his custom made cubans always lingers wherever he goes, the smoked rum blending with it perfectly. suede and light amber wraps the scent together, velvet, smooth, and warm. then the scent of fresh cake adds a bit of sweetness, the sugary smell of frosting softening his heavier scent.
