Mateo Relationship Headcannons
SHADOW DECREE (ESPER)
Missions together 100%
Doesn't matter if you weren't assigned together-he will be working with you.
He knows you can defend yourself-he's seen how you fight, but he's still protective of you.
His past general instincts kick in whenever he's in the middle of a fight with you- even if it's just the two of you.
He laughs a little, when he tells you the story of why he joined the Shadow Decree. You were so livid, and pissed, cursing him out with some very unique words it made him smile in the sense that you both shared the same anger.
He actually had to break the news to you that Nickolas was already dead because you had gotten up and about ran to find him.
Yeah you were still upset.
Xuan Pin would've probably been there, playing against Mateo in a game of chess, and the story would kind of just flow and get told during that time.
One of the things you said was: "How dare he frame my daughter!" "[name] I'm not related to you-" "I don't care I already signed the adoption papers." "The what-?"
So yes, you and him are like- practically parental/older sibling figures to Xuan Pin. (Even though she's an adult.)
WANDERER (NON-ESPER)
Stargazing dates. Often caused by you because you pay attention to the small things. As someone who is "powerless", a human, you focus on the smaller things.
The stars, the moon, the sun in a cloudless day, a flower blooming in the cracks of stone. It's just a thing you two have where you point out something so simple and marvel at at while he looks at it with you and at you.
He will purposely choose missions that will correspond where you are going.
You aren't an esper, and respectfully, not as physically strong as someone who is one.
So he will protect and defend you with his life because even though you can fight decently, you don't have much resistance.
You don't have god-like powers running through your veins. You're just human.
It's enough for him, but it won't stop him from worrying about your well-being.
You also worry about him with how much he worries about you.
When he's working inside his office, you bring him food and stuff. Making sure he is taking care of himself as well.
When he told you about Nickolas did, you you quiet. Then you rummaged in your bag and pulled out a lighter. "[name] why..?" "To burn the rest of his corpse." "[name] no-" "[name] yes."
He makes sure you don't have a lighter in your bag from then on.
GENERAL
He doesn't talk much, but he listens.
If you are a talkative person he'll listening to you rant about whatever and he'll remember it all.
If you don't talk very much, he'll take note of your actions and pay close attention to the words you speak so he can recall it later for future reference.
Strong but silent type.
He's intimidating but a softie for those close to him. He's the big spoon, sometimes, sometimes, he will be the small. But when you wake the roles have already switched.
There was a point where you attempted to cook food over his eye/hand fire. You were able to make some s'mores-barley.
He loves quality time. Just being in your presence is enough.
